Adult Swim Revamps; Removes Most Anime
E. Megas writes "According to a Collegiate Presswire story, Cartoon Network (Probably due to its recent acquisition of Futurama) is expanding its Adult Swim schedule to Monday through Thursday starting January 12th. The "Comedy" block on Sundays will stay, but except for Inu-Yasha and Cowboy Bebop (Which will replace the Toonami Midnight Run block on the weekday slots) the Saturday "Action" block will be gone. This means that the legendary series Mobile Suit Gundam will not be aired in full for the second time in a row on CN. Future airings of Yuu Yuu Hakusho and Outlaw Star-And the planned re-airing of Gundam 0080: War In the Pocket-Are thrown into doubt by this decision as well. More schedule details in the article. (Anyone else as frustrated by this as I am?)"
Same delicious Cartoon Network, now with no MSG!

That's 'ROUNDEYES' to you!
No.
I hate anime. :)
Because they didn't get the viewers. This means they think there are more people who will watch the new stuff.... and bugger all who would watch the old stuff.
If you want to see it all, go out and buy it...

While we're on the subject, I think that Happy Days has jumped the shark as well. They had this episode the other day where Fonzie jumped over a shark.
So, is the unedited fight between Goku and Freiza 6 seasons long?
The loss of anime on Adult Swim was the only thing worth reading about in that article. What is it with you god damn nerds and Futurama?
- [...] but their overediting and bad dub jobs are notorious among hardcore fans.
The use of "hardcore" in that sentence is redundant. It's like saying "smart geek" or "annoying teenybopper", yah know?I do however appreciate a good story ark...
...So I guess you reread Genesis 6-8 a lot, right?
How can we continue to believe in a just universe and freedom to eat crackers if we have no ale?
Yea, you don't even need an slasdot efect to crash this site. A mean look can do the job!

I avoid watching anime that shout out fighting styles or ones overly rely on certain magical objects.

No problem with big eyed characters.
The only time I appreciate people yelling out what they are serving is ordering dimsum in a Chinese restaurant.
then here's what it says:

Oh, that's right -- I'm not at home watching TV on Saturday nights! :)
