Can an anime be in English only?


I was wondering if it's legally possible for an anime to be spoken in the
English language only. Sure a Japanese dub can be optional, but in terms of
main dubbing, can anime have English as the main dub?

I know such anime may not even exist, but I'm wondering if there's any law or
regulation preventing anime from being dubbed in English only. And when I say
anime, I mean actual made-in-Japan anime, not anime-styled cartoons produced
anywhere else.




There is **_absolutely no law_** that specifies that an anime can only be in
English.

I will state that this is incredibly rare, given that most anime are actually
made in Japan for a Japanese audience (hence why they're in Japanese), but
given that the [_Afro Samurai_
anime](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afro_Samurai#Anime) was released in
English-only, and it and its original manga source work was _originally_ made
in Japan, this only goes to demonstrate that there can be no law against this.
