Anime on TV

honru

Anyone have a rough idea what anime is being currently shown on Digital/Terrestial TV? I know Outlaw Star is on Toonami often, but that's all I can really find.

Toonami was playing Cowboy Bebop for a while but really late at night, also The Big O. Toonami plays Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Gt, Card Master or something crappy like this, Pokemon and other kiddy stuff. Fox Kids has Sonic X and Shaman King (brilliant show by the way). Fox Kids France bought Fruit Baskets last year and played it in both French and Japanese with sub so there might be a chance that someday it will come up on Sky as it was played on Fox Kids all across Europe and in the states. I recommend Fruit Baskets to everyone by the way

Sky One plays Yugioh as well ... Fox Kids plays Ulysses 31 at night (Japanese/French anime from the eighties).

In another word, not that much material compared to the states where anime such as Saint Seiya, Fruit Baskets, Yuyuhakusho etc. are really famous at the moment.

Oh I forgot, Toonami used to play Tenshi Muyo recently but again really late at night.

The Sci-fi channel used to be great. They showed all of Evangelion and Martian Successor Nadesico. They still sometimes show the occasional movie though, such as Akira, Ghost in the Shell, Gunbuster and others.

Toonami showed alot better stuff back when it was CNX... but that whole CNX thing didn't really work out... although I think any channel stuck towards the end of the 200's on Sky Digital is doomed to begin with... you can't venture up there without being inundated with loud mouthed tarts...

Toonami used to have Mobile Suit Gundam Wing aswell, I'm not sure if they still do. The SciFi channel used to be a great a few years ago aswell, for late movies. They even had an anime week at one stage.

*sigh* God I wish I had sky digital. Only anime I can get it yu-gi-oh on the den =p

I remember before they had CNX they used to have Dragonball Z on Cartoon Network. First anime I ever watched. Then the bastards stole all the good things and put them on CNX

eww... Shaman King on fox has been bastardised, the voice acting ruins my ears. They destroyed it tbh

Aye, CNX was great and promising. Downgrading it to Toonami was a shame.

I remember Sci-Fi used to show anime late at night but that stopped a good while ago. I'll keep my eye open on it if anything pops up.

It would be nice if there was something like The Anime Network on Sky Digital/NTL. I've never actually seen the channel in action but the prospects of anime 24/7 is very nice.

All anime on our TV has been raped of it's former glory.
Toonami still has DBZ and Gundam Wing.
Sci-Fi has stuff on early in the morning (4-5 i think), Arc the Lad and Gasraki. I haven't checked recently, so it might have changed.


The only option available is to download fansubs.
I got all the Trigun eps. off a friend. Fricken deadly show.

They're gone too, might return in the new year perhaps.
