Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Denmark's biggest animated franchise is this foul-mouthed ninja doll series, which outsold Disney releases locally. The Danes are built different.
Anders Matthesen voices nearly every male character himself—including both Checkered Ninja AND Eppermint—making this essentially a one-man rage party.
