Really? Is it like that?
Well then I guess I will be watching too.

What did you think of the TV series?
Just curious.

Don't fret. If we compare to Adult Swim, I'll guess that TTGL is on break as a dubbing hiatus, since it's a bleeding-edge dub like AS usually gets. And maybe they're taking out NaTHaT for both weeks because they've been airing them together.
I loved the ROD OVA last time it was on AniMonday, I can't wait to see it again.

I'm a bit worried about the lack of YTV listings this weel. Last week, it was kind of odd due ot retro week on the channel, DBZ managed to get a surprise appearence, and the two Armitage movies aired again on Teletoon during the week as well. The fact nothing's there, is either because there was difficulty in obtaining the listings - or that this Saturday evening is going to be really boring ofr me. >_>

According to my on-screen tv guide, there is zero anime on YTV this week. Lets hope its just on hiatus. And to think YTV used to be my main source for anime but now it seems to be slowly fading away. Good thing I still have some DVDs to watch.

Sci Fi, this whole two week haitus BETTER be because Bandai asked for it.
If I ever find out that you delayed it because you wanted to extend the timeframe it'd be airing in, you WILL feel my wrath.
Not a huge loss to me though, I borrow my friends subbed DVD's (The official ones with the 2-disc, nine episode per box releases, not a fansub) and I'll be satisfied for now. I still wanna see how the dub works out.

God forbid Adult Swim even advertize Moribito. It's no wonder their anime doesn't do as well in the ratings as their crappy budgetless "comedies".

Yipes, hadn't even realized new stuff was coming out. With all the reaps & pre-emptions lately, it's not like that had any comparable content to cross-market in ... not that the lack of anime to promote more anime is excusable though. Off to add another season pass I guess (and make sure the cable cards haven't randomly decided to stop working again.)

There's a difference now? Stop reading your emails for a week and things go all screwy (not quite MB releasing dubs, BV releasing low price volumes, or anyone releasing BDs levels of screwy mind ya.)

There was a Moribito ad before Tim and Eric last Sunday. The standard anime fails-why do we bother-sky is falling rant.

Don't you know Anime on Canadian TV is Dead? YTV picked up Blue Dragon to air in Bionix, that was their only pick up for the block in terms of anime. Did I mention it's still on Saturdays? Yeah, Anime on TV here is dead.
Tonight is either the Avatar Finale marathon, or the InuYasha movie marathon, one of those two, or one happens next week.

Was that the ad, or is that what you are telling penguin?

It's the ad. I haven't seen it myself, but, as it was pointed out by Top Gun in the Moribito thread, it seems that [as] realizes that the show is worth airing even though they know that it'll fail in the ratings department.
Does one need to have watched the ROD TV series to watch the OVA?

Nope, actually your supposed to watch the OVA first. And I highly recommend you do.

Now why would I charter a flight to Tucson when I already live there?
I'm interested to see what this "incredibly unusual" thing will be.
