The Click - April 27th - May 4th

For those wondering what happened with the final episode of Eureka 7, here's how it goes down.

AS has to trim down the opening & closing to save time (as many of us know), & they do this by having the OP/ED pre-edited. This way instead of editing 100 times (twice for each episode), they only have to do it 8 times (once for each OP/ED). So they have the episodes ready with the OP/ED already taken out, & then slap the appropriate pre-made ones in where they belong. How episode 50 worked was they treated the first few minutes & last few minutes as the opening & closing (which they kinda were, since credits were roling during these times) & put in their ready-made ones. They were probably none-the-wiser about this episode being a special case.

This isn't the first case of this happening either. The same thing happened during the final episode of .hack//Lengend of the Twilight Bracelet. The same thing goes for the reruns of the final episode of Big O. While it originally aired with the ending intact (this was when AS was showing the ending theme in its entirety), consistent airings had the final moments taken out in favor of the ending credits (where they were now shortend & sped up). Another situation is Cowboy Bebop. While for many years AS aired the ending song in its entirety, they eventually gave it the sped-up/shortend treatment. The result being that the next episode previews were now missing. It wasn't because they took them out, but how the pre-made ending credits worked made it impossible for them to be included anymore. Viz does sort of the same thing with Naruto. As some may notice, the dub episodes where the new opening credits begin/end don't exactly line-up with how they were in the Japanese version.

i would agree with this, except they never had problems making exceptions before. they showed the final Fullmetal Alchemist in it's entirety.

The entire second half of the final FMA episode was the credits - I don't think it ran over its usual episode length.

AS only has a certain amount of time set for the running of its programs, and it usually doesn't (if ever) run over that time.

Anyone who wants to see what happens "one year later" should buy the DVD, if they're that interested.

so no sign of new episodes of Eureka Seven or Bleach on YTV then?

Even though you are correct...

The Adult Swim Fix trimmed the OP and ED the same way for all other episodes, and yet it (the Fix) had no problem airing the entirety of the final episode. Just saying.

Not quite true. I only caught Eureka 7 on the Fix a couple times during its run, but I distinctly remember seeing some of the closing credits in their entirety. Can't remember if the same holds true for the openings or not. Regardless, this shows that E7 on the Fix was treated & edited differently from its televised counterpart.

I believe nudity was also left intact for the Fix, no blurs or anything.
