So my dear sweet husband was watching Extended Play on Tech TV (figure that... a man watching a show revolving completely around video games) when he saw the ads for their new show Anime Unleashed. I found this on a web site and thought I should share (Even though most of you probably already know). So here it is!
Name: Anime Unleashed
Schedule:
New Episodes, Mon.-Fri., 1am-1:30am ET;
Additional Airings, Fri., 11pm-1am ET and 1:30am-3am ET
Format: Half-Hour Series and Movie Specials
Premiere Date: December 30, 2002
Description:
For the first time ever, TechTV’s Anime Unleashed will import series and movies from Japan to television viewers in the United States. Anime Unleashed encompasses the many forms of Japanese animation that truly know no boundaries. This program features not just a style of animation, but explores an entire genre where viewers may find sophisticated science fiction, fantasy adventure, romantic comedies, kidappropriate fare, teen dreams or even adult-only titles. Anime Unleashed exemplifies the difference between its titles and Western animation by exploring the depths of characters and contortions of plot. Viewers will encounter realistic scenarios, complex relationships and flawed personalities. Despite their deficiencies, the subjects of Anime Unleashed are beholden to their desires, their hopes and their dreams. And though happy endings are not guaranteed, actions do have consequences.
Series and Movie Titles
Series: Betterman
Series: Crest of the Stars
Series: Dual!
Series: Serial Experiments Lain
Series: Silent Mobius
Movie: Armitage III Polymatrix
Movie: Ghost in the Shell
Movie: Macross Plus
Movie: Patlabor I
Oh, and as a side note. I read that the Metreon (Sony's pseudo-theme park of technology) in San Fransisco is now showing anime at their theater! Now why couldn't they have done that a year ago when we were living there! It would have given us yet ANOTHER reason to visit (aside from the Where the Wild Things Are attraction)! |

That's cool, Lain is one messed up series, but well worth it. And if you liked Blade Runner then you'll love Armitage and Ghost in the Shell |

Who DOESN'T love Blade Runner? That movie's a classic! Also, this sounds like a really cool thing! I would watch it... but, again, I have no TV. CURSE YOU NONEXISTENT TV! CURSE YOU!
