| Fun fact: The soundtrack to both Gurren Lagann and Now and Then, Here and There were composed by Taku Iwasaki. |

The guy gets around. Under the heading of "Depressing Soundtracks", I think his work on the RuroKen Trust & Betrayal OVAs takes the cake.
But then he also did the rousing and glorious R.O.D. OVA soundtrack. Versatile sucker! I can never get enough of that OST. |

Yes, the R.O.D. OVA OST is quite good, isn't it?  |

I'm still holding out hope for series on G4 (post-Geneon, they need to acquaint themselves with Funimation) and movies on Teletoon. |

Look under Reruns. If you check Gunslinger Girl's episode list on its ANN entry, it aired on IFC once in early 2007 too, so it ain't in premieres on Fridays. I understand the confusion, it caught me off guard too. |

It's looking very unlikely that G4TechTV will be getting more anime. If you take a look at their current schedule, very very little of their line-up isn't simulcasted from the US station. I think they took a hit from their hard earned venture into dramatic programming, I'm afraid.
I'm still pretty sure that Teletoon's airing of anime films earlier this year was little more than once-in-a-decade lip service. If anything were to actually come out of it, I'm sure they'd be airing Blood+ or Code Geass by now. |

Band of what? DON'T LEAVE ME HANGING, DUDE!
Moving on...
I know FUNimation Channel isn't covered by The Click, and I don't know how many people here get it, but I feel I need to say this anyway. I started watching Beck: Mongolian Chop Squad on the channel, and they're airing it completely uncensored. That's right: 10 F-bombs just in the first episode, and FUNimation left it all in and put it on the air.
Is that really all that airs in Canada these days? I thought that television anime was coughing blood in the States, but just... WOW.
I didn't say it last week, so I thought I would this week. I checked the doodles. They gave me warm and/or fuzzy flashbacks of Tiny Toon Adventures, for some reason. |
