As to the topic about KIBA. Sorry, for not knowing about that. It's not like everyone knows that stuff, I'm from Sweden and have never heard about ANN because people don't like Anime that much that they now the original Japanese channel which is broadcasting the thing or whatever ANN is.

Could you atleast be so kind as to give me a link or something?

I know, tried google already, don't know which one it is from the millions of hits I get.

Have you tried the "About ANN" section to your left? And you should also read the forum rules, which are stickied at the top of the forum. You'll be expected to follow the rules and claiming ignorance is not an excuse.

Anime News Network does not have any anime episodes. It's a news, information and discussion site.

This information does not include telling you where to get illegal downloads - this includes KIBA. No-one else is allowed to tell you either.

You may want to read Teh Rules, or more specifically, Requesting downloads is NOT allowed.

That's the FAQ. Question 1 is "What is ANN?"

I am going to give you the benefit of doubt and assume you were not talking about fansubs but the actual television broadcast in Japan... Now I can't read Japanese at all; but it looks like on the KIBA official site, the air dates are listed. Check there.

If you are looking for downloads, we can't give you even a link. It's against the rules, and none of us want to break them. I know a lot of people don't read the rules like they should, but this is posted on the first page you are taken to when trying to register:

10) Users may not request or link to bootlegs, fansubs, scanlations, active fan-translating groups, peer-to-peer networks, timed scripts, MP3s, unauthorized movie clips, or websites that house these groups or products

Good. Take the suggestion which is quoted above and you should be well on your way! Though there are other Anime news sites out there, but ANN has some fun goodies included too. Wink

Stick to the forums if you want information as well as the Encyclopedia!

It's probably the best Japanimation-related site ever. It's got stuff like the Encyclopedia, news, Hey Answerman, etc.

Anyways. Welcome. hope you read Teh Rules when you signed up because that's what I had to do.

You can also get an avatar that is 80x80. Take a look at mine.

Well, I never implied I wanted to know where to get downloads??? I just wanted to know when the new episodes Air on japanese television, since they don't air those shows in sweden I have no other option then to download the fansubs. But I never wanted you to provide me with them. I just asked about when Kiba is going to air next??? Sorry, didn't know that this was discussion only forum, I was so excited after the end on episode 28 Smile, I wanted to get my hands on the next episodes as fast as possible.

I didn't know what ANN is, a friend tipped me about this site, he said you'd get your answers here. And since I saw that this site only had 28 titles in list, and that on Kibas webpage, there were 30, I wanted to know when they air, and because I also do not understand Japanese and The only thing my computer reads on ther webpage are question marks... I thought I would ask here.... Guess I did wrong in doing that.
Since I didn't know this site was ANN, when Tony K. told me to look at their website, I thought he meant, ANN... Razz

Sorry for bothering you guys, I found the information I needed at TV.com. The air dates are on that site, that's all i needed.

Well, you usually can rely on the encyclopedia to have the air dates and the titles (usually translated too) for most shows for the next few weeks. It is, of course, kind of like a middle man so to speak, and the japanese site for the show is going to have the info first, but the encyclopedia usually isn't too far behind. And even if you dont know japanese, if you can find your way to the site to know how many episodes it has, you can probably find the schedule, and the japanese use numbers for the months anyway so you can probably guess as to whats going on Wink

like 10月17日 would be today (17th of october, the 10th month).

ANN is an anime news site, providing information about releases and also providing reviews and previews to released series, manga, movies, etc. There is also an encyclopedia where you can look up information about anime, and there is a forum where you can discuss anime related topics. ANN is also well known for not having connections to any fansub groups and bootleggers
