Are they airing it in English or Japanese? Since it is an "asian" channel, I would probably think it's in Japanese with subtitles.

I can't count how many times shows have stopped midway or started late on this channel. It sometimes feels like public access.

That sucks. I did hear they were having some problems with the place where they broadcast from (the company is in NY, but they broadcast out of Arkansas or something). But yeah, the trials of a new station I suppose. I wish I got it.

My knowledge of US TV stations isnt the best, and sometimes names can be jumbled up, but from what I can remember of a con report or some interview or whatever, it'd be a mixture of sub and dub, based on what would be appropriate for the material at hand.

Eek. Sorry about that. We're aware of all of the tehcnical problems we've been having and we're working on some major improvements. Like Jad said, we're new at this, so we'll improve in a pretty short time.

To answer the big other question, dub or sub, we have some of both. Sometimes we only license one or the other, other times it's our choice. When it's our choice, we decide based on the quality of the dub versus the original Japanese, the material itself, and if there's a lot of complicated mythology that is already hard to understand.

Here's the format we've shown everything in so far:

- Patlabor (sub)
- Gravitation (sub)
- Figure 17 (dub)
- 12 Kingdoms (dub)
- Kurogane Communication (dub)
- Space Pirate Mito (sub)
- Roujin Z (sub)
- Jungle Emperor Leo (dub)
- Heroic Legend of Arslan (sub)
- A Wind Named Amnesia (sub)
- The Venus Wars (sub)
- Armored Trooper Votoms (sub)
- They Were 11 (sub)
- GoShogun: The TIme Etranger (sub)

We'll have some new areas of distribution to announce soon, so hopefully everyone that wants us will be able to get us.

And I promise, these technical issues will be resolved soon!
