    Eh, they could maybe stretch 12, but then it'd put them in the position of having a shallow third season, if that. Plus the manga has a few characters they're pretty much written out of the anime at the moment, so while they could be reapplied later, I'm not sure how well a transvestite would be received.

    The fatal flaw was not spending 11 episodes in school before Ganta murdered them!

    Well shit, we'll never be able to move on from high school drama/problems. It's all ruined.

    It's sad too, I really liked DW anime. At the very least it's a great entry point to the series and really easy to recommend to people new to anime (who want something cool).

    Sucks to hear the anime might being dead. It was a kickass series and the dialog during the fights actually meant something instead of random shit that you could cut out and it wouldn't make 1 effin' difference to the plot.

    Even after watching the subbed version a year or so ago(?), I still cant get over the Ichigo flying around opening. Shit's hilarious.

    How the hell did Casshern Sins get past 12 episodes and not DMW? This is bullshit.

    Antiquity? I dunno. Thought I heard there's multiple iterations of the series. We might've just gotten the shitty one... which is probably an inevitability with AS' anime choices since they're not swimming in dough.

    After DW's run and thinking of some things I've watched on Netflix, part of me's wondering if Phantom: Requiem of a Phantom might be an okay choice to go in the line-up. They'd have to do some censoring here and there, both for language and fanservice, but I'd say the show was more interesting than some things they've run in the past.

    There are several versions yea, the last one that came out was Robot Hunter Casshern back in the 90's if you don't count the live action iirc, but it was actually fucking awesome and to get this afterwards was just silly. All it did was spark the "Devour Casshern" robot meme.

    Looks like the DVD promos last night for Gundam Wing and Outlaw Star were to help Bandai out. Kinda sad to see Bandai in America die out because of piracy and shit. Which makes it harder to even show Gundam in the states now. OS is something they do want to show again, so maybe that was a hint too.

    I'm not sure how 00 did on syfy's anime block, but I watched it w/ /m/ couple years ago for both seasons and it was hilarious with their reactions. Regene's female voice was hot...

    00 Probably suffered due to Sci-Fi (fuck you) moving the block around/airing stupid shitty B-movies over it occasionally. Lack of promotion didn't help either.

    Thing is with Syfy is they showed the entire OP, no cuts like toonami, but skipped the ED for "WATCH OUR SHITTY SHOWS!"

    Yep. I'll never forget Sharktopus or that giant shark (that attacked an airliner mid-flight) being spammed for each ED, 2-hours straight.

    Think there was also wrestling or something too. lol

    Seriously lol. I skipped 00 S2 subbed to wait for the dubbed version to air and they skipped the Jupiter scene hinting at the movie to promote their shit. It was off in a small screen but with no sound.

    Ended suddenly last June. Anime section on syfy vanished like it was never there. Guys could have given a hint or some shit like when Toonami originally died.

    Atleast they showed it. AS would have given us a Family Guy promo instead.



    Here's the one; the other is Mega Shark or something horrible.
