It's you.

I'd say that they're going for the more intelligent Bandai shows. Geneshaft flat out sucks as far as I am concerned (and most reviewers seem to agree with me), but Banner of the Stars is highly regarded... but by an older and more intelectual demographic than Cartoon Network's.

It just wouldn't fit in on Toonami or Adult Swim IMO.

i hope they eventually acquire the second series of the sequel as well.

crest of the stars was excellent and sure would like to see more of Lafiel and Jinto's adventures together and learn more about the Abhs.

i sure would like to see more competitions among the cable channels with anime programming...this could mean more (and hopefully better) shows for us.

I agree. If you watched it on TechTV, then you would have known that the last episode was finishing up the story for 22 minutes, then 3 minutes of conclusion. The way it cut-off so abruptly, you can't help but want to see more

Yeah, they are using RPGMaker200? (I don't know/remember if it was 2002 or the new 2003 (The person working on it also works with X-Play).) Till the 16th, they are looking for storyline and a couple of other things. Of course more info is on the site.

I'm happy that they are getting BotS and wondering about Geneshift.

Yes, true. I have some of the scripts from the scenes removed from the TV version with a few screen caps.

On the front it is mentioned that Geneshaft would run on 2 days, however, it runs Tuesday through Saturday at midnight

I wouldn't hope too much for TechTV to pick up Banner II. Frankly, it's not the same quality as Banner and Crest.

Why should I watch anime unleashed anyway? Besides they're just going to chop the episodes up for commercial time.

If only US President didn't passed the Telecomnications Act of 1996 this wouldn't happened.
