Ok, obvious bets:

FMP was turned down by Kim Manning years ago. Also, color me skeptical on them getting anything that's NOT a boring whinefest. |

Am I the only one who wouldn't put it past them to have licensed Japanese game shows or something equally nutty?
It's great if they've changed their mind about anime purging but considering how warped they are at [adult swim], shouldn't we all take a moment to consider that they might be screwing with us again? I mean, it's not bloody likely that they aren't bringing some anime but do we have any real evidence? Try to remember the sheer level of WTF crazy we're dealing with here. This is the same group that thought airing Saved by the Bell was a funny joke. Can we really trust them not to be messing with us? And my money's on FMA: B and more Inuyasha, though technically I think they'd be getting the rights from the R1 licensors rather than direct from Tokyo. |

Crappy Adult Swim should just stop airing crappy anime dubs altogether.

Right....so, where were we? Hmm... -FMA: B is a longshot since it's not gone on long enough through localization. But, the original Inuyasha got on pretty fast, so know whows... -Soul Eater is practically a gimmie. -Watch them pull something totally random out of the ass...like Mospeada. |

People keep saying "it's too soon for this show", but seem to be forgetting that we aren't talking about this Saturday. From what was written on page one, the interstitial said one show for early February and one show for September. If they do go with three shows then it looks like they've given themselves all year to work on it. Inuyasha and FMA:B both could be easily ready for a September release. February would point towards something that's ready to go now. Could be Soul Eater, but I just don't see it as Adult Swim material, not compared to the more serious and thought provoking stuff they've been licensing recently (Code Geass, Moribito, Death Note, Blood+), it's been a while since they've licensed a fun action title that didn't already have a huge following. But then again, maybe that's been the downfall of anime on Adult Swim in the first place (though I don't think so) and the time is right for a show like Soul Eater to come along. Someone just mentioned Casshern Sins, now that feels like something Adult Swim would license today. Emerje |

You gotta keep in mind: FLCL was their favorite anime ever.
When you take that into account, Soul Eater could definitely fit in snuggly between their tastes... |

I'm going to take the "went to Japan" bit literal with my guess. Maybe, just maybe, they licensed some lower class show and they give it their own gag dub. Much like what ADV did with Ghost Stories. Possible? I think so.

Any anime please! God adult swim turned to shit after riding on Seth Green. Anime use to rule all day baby! We get screwed with a Saturday only line up and even then it starts up with like 2 hrs of garbage comedy.

Here are my predictions of what to expect
Soul eater will be a most defenite obviouse Inuyasha Final Act and FMA Brotherhood are defentially gonna be on there,dued to how adult swim constaly show reruns of the first series all though this might never happen,but I hope adult swim air season 1 of Shakugan no shana,it possible,it would defentially make a fine edition to adult swim's lineup

I have no idea why in the world people are complaining about this in a topic about Adult Swim acquiring 3 new anime titles. |

While everybody speculating on what three new shows they're getting, you all might want to wait and see IF they get these new shows or not. Remember nothing's been conformed yet.

The entire station is called Cartoon Network, not Anime Network. Fanboys really know where they belong, and Adult Swim is not one of them. You could just as easily watch anime on DVD, you at least have that option. Anime does not have to be on TV for you to watch it. If garbage is getting higher ratings than anime, that's got to tell you something. I'd love to have more anime on tv as much as the next guy, but I understand why it isn't. |

I guess the best canidates have already been said quite enough, even though I'm not feeling easy on the Soul Eater idea.
but some deep hopes that I think would be cool: Detroit Metal City Gundam Unicorn The Legend of Koizumi |

I have a feeling it's gonna be like you said and the first two will be the new FMA and inuyahsa series. As for the third. I got no clues on that one though it night be indeed either Gitama and Soul Eater. But wouldn't be a real shock if somehow they say they "taken" the broadcasts of Naruto Shippuden from Disney? Or somehow they start doing the funi version of One Piece after the Skypeia arc where it ended on it's toonami run. NOW that would make seriious headwaves. would like for that to happen and have them paired right along with new eps of bleach,and with a decent timeline like around 10-12am. the viewership would skyrocket Need to show more anime and less of those fox crap & US based shows even though they have more viewers,but with crappy shows like king of the hill & family guy raking more viewers than bleach, it has me and other posters worried and for good reason. |
