The Click

June 16 - 22

Hi again, welcome to The Click, there is anime on TV this week, and my job is to tell you about it in as jocular way as possible, so let's get down to business since my air conditioning is busted and I feel like I'm about to melt into an incredibly handsome and dapper puddle.

First, though, let me alleviate certain allegations that have sprung up recently about my proclivity to be utterly, irreparably wrong in regards to most things. And by that I mean, allow me to publicly and profusely apologize for certain claims made in the past The Clicks which have not held up to any scrutiny:

- Ghost in the Shell: Solid State Society is not, as I indicated last week, a "compilation feature" comprised of mostly animation from the first TV series. It is, in fact, an entirely original feature-length production. I had merely gotten it confused with an earlier announcement that the original Stand Alone Complex's "Laughing Man" arc would be condensed into a feature-length special.

- Remi, the classic anime series currently being run on ImaginAsianTV's risky but admirable "TMS Anime Classics" block, was never a part of World Masterpiece Theater. A remake of the original series, produced about 10 years ago, however, was . Hence the confusion.

- Lieutenant Dominic in the series Eureka 7 was actually introduced around episode 10 of said series, and not in episode 29 as I mistakenly alluded to in last week's column.

- Sadly, the Digimon series never once had an entire 10 minute gay sex scene animated, dubbed, and then cut at the last second.

- Despite numerous, drunken party anecdotes to the contrary, I have never received sagely advice from Bill Cosby during a fever dream to invade the republic of Congo and incite revolution.

- Apologies as well to the families and friends of the victims of the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster; it was a mistake to openly admit to causing the disaster through the sheer power of my telekinetic abilities.

Feels good to get that off my conscience. Say, have I mentioned that I was once on tour with The Buzzcocks? Or that I got kicked out of X for stabbing their drummer in the chest with a broken bottle, and then puking on him?

Inuyasha the Movie 4: Fire on the Mystic Island
(YTV)
Friday June 22 9:00pm

Cowboy Bebop
(Razer)
Sunday June 17 9:00pm - Episode 26 "The Real Folk Blues, Part 2"

Samurai Champloo
(Razer)
Sunday June 17 9:30pm - Episode 26 "Evanescent Encounter, Part 3"

The especially noteworthy additions to this week's television lineup happen to be in Canada for this week; Inuyasha makes his final stop in the country in the form of his fourth movie, which, don't get me wrong here, isn't especially great, but considering the lackluster quality of most long-running anime series turned movies (Naruto), "quite watchable" is indeed a compliment. What is great though, are the back-to-back series finale of both Cowboy Bebop and Samurai Champloo. Both are exciting, dramatic, action-packed, and leave the viewer with just a hint of unresolved questions to leave them aching, physically aching, for more. Which probably won't happen, ever, considering statements made by the series' director, Shinichiro Watanabe, content with pursuing other projects. Unless that long-standing rumor about Adult Swim head honcho Mike Lazzo attempting to court studio Sunrise to produce more Bebop actually comes true, which it probably won't.

PREMIERES:

Bleach
(Adult Swim)
Sunday June 17 12:00am - Episode 37 (Repeats Sun June 17 3:00am)

Sad news for Canadian Bleach fans, as my warnings that new episodes might be postponed in favor of more reruns came horrifically true. Though honestly, I would hesitate a bit to make a nation of hockey fans even mildly upset - I've seen that Law & Order episode about pee-wee hockey enough to know that hockey has a dangerous and deadly effect on the human mind. This week on Bleach, in America, the stoic and gargantuan Chad steals the limelight, as he delves into the secrets of his power while fighting the 8th Squad Captain, Kyoraku.

Blood+
(Adult Swim)
Sunday June 17 12:30am - Episode 13 "Jungle Paradise" (Repeats Sun June 17 3:30am)

Saya, our pubescent heroine, would probably rather be doing things average 14 year old girls do, such as read Teen Beat and listen to Maroon 5, but sadly, she's the latest incarnation of a vampire warrior-person, so that lifestyle is out. This week, she and her friends are held captive in an experimental farm in the middle of the Vietnam jungle, and the sweet smell of blood drives her inner vampire to the point of madness. Fun!

Bobobo-bo Bo-Bobo
(Cartoon Network)
Saturday June 16 10:00pm - Episode 62 "Good Night, Sleep Tight and Don't Let the Bed Bugs Bug Ya"

Bo-bobo and his friends take a tour of the Great Redwood Forest in California, and learn six helpful tips to save the environment! Later, they make Soapbox Derby cars out of rotten onions and ride them to Rod Steiger's house.

Cat's Eye
(ImaginAsianTV)
-Monday June 18 9:30am - Episode 8 "Distant Dodochino" (Repeats Tue June 19 5:30am)
-Tuesday June 19 9:30am - Episode 9 "Bizarre Track, Thief Chases Police" (Repeats Wed June 20 5:30am)
-Wednesday June 20 9:30am - Episode 10 "Do You Like Dog Food?" (Repeats Thu June 21 5:30am)

No, I really don't like dog food. Thanks, though. Anyway, Tsukasa Hojo's forgotten campy classic about three curvaceous sisters and their thieving exploits wraps up this week, as ImaginAsianTV seems to be running their "TMS Anime Classics" in 10-episode blocks, for some reason.

Elemental Gelade
(ImaginAsianTV)
Tuesday June 19 5:00pm - Episode 21 "The Revealed Truth" (Repeats Tue June 19 8:00pm, Wed June 20 12:30am, 12:00pm)

Sky pirate Cou learns the truth about Viro, who is tied between her intense feelings for Cou and her mission... to kill him! Later, the Gobbledygook Bananalingading strikes a chord with the Hossenfefferification Woof-Nook.

Ergo Proxy
(Fuse)
Saturday June 16 12:00am - Episode 2 "Confession" (Repeats Thu June 21 12:00am, 12:30am)

The hard-to-figure-out-how-to-pronounce Re-I encounters one of those mystical "phantoms" or whatever, and when her friends and family refuse to believe her, the young, gothic lass strikes out on her own to discover the truth!

Eureka 7
(YTV)
Friday June 22 11:00pm - Episode 30 "Change of Life" (Repeats Sat June 23 2:30am)

Now that Renton has been re-established as a Gekkostate member, the spunky lad becomes curious about Eureka's elusive past, and prods the other Gekkostate members for information. There, he learns more about himself, his grandfather, Eureka, the Nirvash, Holland, particle physics, and tort reform.

Gankutsuou: The Count of Monte Cristo
(ImaginAsianTV)
Tuesday June 19 6:30pm - Episode 21 "The Nobleman's True Self" (Repeats Tue June 19 9:30pm, Wed June 20 2:00am, 1:30pm)

What's a green-skinned Count to do, when all of his devious machinations seem to be wonderfully falling into place at the same time? It involves a lot of traveling, let's just say.

Kyo Kara Maoh
(ImaginAsianTV)
Tuesday June 19 5:30pm - Episode 21 "The Dangerous Visitor" (Repeats Tue June 19 8:30pm, Wed June 20 1:00am, 12:30pm)

Part of being a king, a demon one notwithstanding, is learning to cope with numerous people wishing to take your life for various political reasons. Yuri, our protagonist, does so with compassion, when a young girl posing as his illegitimate child attempts, and fails of course, to assassinate our erstwhile king. He then attempts to look after his attempted murderer, but what secrets does she hold? (Plenty, I would bet.)

The Law of Ueki
(ImaginAsianTV)
Tuesday June 19 6:00pm - Episode 21 "The Law of Seiichiro Sano" (Repeats Tue June 19 9:00pm, Wed June 20 1:30am, 1:00pm)

Now here's something you don't see everyday, aside from the hit Disney Channel musical event "Jump In!" - a Rope-Jumping battle, between Ueki and the titular Seichiro Sano. I, personally, can't wait for the epic Hop-Scotch battle, or the battle to determine who can jump the farthest from the swing set.

Lupin III
(G4TechTV Canada)
-Monday June 18 8:30pm - Episode 31 "Twins Pique"
-Tuesday June 19 8:30pm - Episode 32 "Lupin the Interred"
-Wednesday June 20 8:30pm - Episode 33 "A Rumble Royal"
-Thursday June 21 8:30pm - Episode 34 "But Your Brother Was Such a Nice Guy"
-Friday June 22 8:30pm - Episode 35 "Gorilla Tactics"

Now this is just unfair. G4TechTV Canada gets a second season of dubbed Lupin III antics, while Adult Swim is content to re-air their initial order of 25 episodes into oblivion? They obviously can't be terribly expensive, Lupin's lukewarm ratings notwithstanding. What gives? I suppose your Northern viewers can doff your Royal Mounted Police caps and enjoy while Lupin searches for a viking treasure, lies low in prison to avoid a skilled assassin, fights for an ancient royal crown, and other priceless artifacts and ribald escapades.

MAR
(YTV)
Friday June 22 7:00pm - Episode 4 "Lost and Found Babbo"

Ginta feels the pangs of homesickness, and learns from his weapon (with a handsome and swarthy mustache), Babbo, that he must seek the "Dimension ARM" that had originally brought him to the world of MAR. Jack and his trusty Battle Shovel joins up for the ride, and then more stuff happens!

Naruto
(Cartoon Network)
Saturday June 16 9:00pm - Episode 91 "Inheritance! The Necklace of Death"

The disconcertingly buxom Tsunade makes a bet with an enraged Naruto, challenging our favorite Ninja cadet that if he should master his newest move, the destructive "Rasengan," in one week, she'll give him her treasured "Necklace of Death." I can't foresee why anyone would really want a so-called "Necklace of Death," but that's animation for you.

(YTV)
Friday June 22 8:00pm - Episode 86 "A New Training Begins: I Will Be Strong"

Five weeks ago in the US, we saw this episode, wherein Jiraiya demonstrates to Naruto a powerful new Jutsu - the "Rasengan." What carefree, bygone times those were, five weeks ago!

One Piece
(Cartoon Network)
Saturday June 16 10:30pm - Episode 93 "The Bomb in the Belfry"

I suppose while whiling away the days until August, wherein new, Funimation-produced One Piece will be available, one could stare in abject horror at the last of 4Kids' hastily produced One Piece episodes. This one has Luffy continuing to fight Crocodile, while Vivi and her trusty companion, Pell, attempt to disarm a bomb! With lots of puns and bad jokes and cloying music.

Orguss
(ImaginAsianTV)
-Monday June 18 8:30am - Episode 6 "Vanishing Point" (Repeats Tue June 19 5:00am)
-Tuesday June 19 8:30am - Episode 7 "I Love You" (Repeats Wed June 20 5:00am)
-Wednesday June 20 8:30am - Episode 8 "Runaway" (Repeats Thu June 21 5:00am)
-Thursday June 21 8:30am - Episode 9 "Revolution" (Repeats Fri June 22 5:00am)
-Friday June 22 8:30am - Episode 10 "Barbarians" (Repeats Sat June 22 5:00am)

Yep, it's another five episodes of Nobuo Uematu's love-conquers-all robots-in-space story, missing in action from US shelves since U.S. Renditions bit the dust almost fifteen years ago. As featured on "This Week in the 80's: Part 152" on VH1!

Pokemon
(Cartoon Network)
-Monday June 18 7:30pm - Episode 475 "Setting the World on it's Bunearary"
-Tuesday June 19 7:30pm - Episode 476 "Not On My Watch Ya Don't
-Wednesday June 20 7:30pm - Episode 478 "Mounting a Coordinator Assault"
-Thursday June 21 7:30pm - Episode 479 "Arrival of a Rival"

I have to confess that I not only know what a Buneary is, but that I've actually caught one, being fully immersed in the gotta-catch-'em-all madness that is Pokemon Pearl. What's more daunting is that Pokemon is rapidly approaching 500 - five-freakin'-hundred episodes dubbed in the US. That's small potatoes compared to some of the anime behemoths still running in Japan, such as Sazae-san or Doraemon, but still.

Remi
(ImaginAsianTV)
Monday June 18 6:00am - Episode 10 "Unforseen Incident" (Repeats Mon June 18 9:00am, Tue June 19 4:30am)

Have I mentioned before that anyone with ImaginAsianTV should be required by anime fan law to watch all of their TMS Classics? Especially since all three of them will be launching into repeats this week. And who doesn't want to watch a French orphan make friends in the beautiful European countryside?

Tenjho Tenge
(Fuse)
Saturday June 16 12:30am - Episode 2 "Defeat" (Repeats Sat June 16 1:00pm, 1:30pm)

The put-upon Souichiro Nagi and his friend, Bob, continue their assault against their new schoolmates, which all culminates in both a hilarious defeat and a marriage proposal. Which is just like how schoolyard fights in real life end up.

Zatch Bell
(YTV)
Friday June 22 8:30pm - Episode 74 "Pamoon, the Celestial Warrior"

Zatch and co. meet up with Pamoon, a kind mamodo who is forced against his will to do the bidding of the wicked Zofis. But, isn't working in complicity for an evil despot in itself somewhat evil? Have the Nuremberg trials taught us nothing? Not that such subtlety will permeate a children's series about superpowered little demons, but nonetheless.

MOVIES/SPECIALS

Howl's Moving Castle
(Encore WAM)
Saturday June 16 6:00pm (Repeats Wed June 20 8:05pm)

Howl's Moving Castle tends to re-appear at whim on various networks every other week, so this isn't a surprise. But just in case you're an anime fan who has been living on an oil barge in Alaska for the past two years - Howl's Moving Castle is a really good movie! Not Miyazaki's best, obviously, but still damn wonderful!

Pokemon 3: The Movie (Cartoon Network)
Tuesday June 19 11:00am

Pokemon 3 was released in theaters around the time that most pop-culture theologians had dismissed the series as a passing fad, and its mediocre box-office take was provided as evidence. It still made more money than both Spirited Away and Princess Mononoke combined, for whatever that's worth.

Jin-Roh: The Wolf Brigade
(Encore Action)
Saturday June 16 12:00am (Repeats Sat June 16 10:20am)

Appleseed
(Encore Action)
Tuesday June 19 9:40am (Repeats Tue June 19 6:30pm)

Another week, another ho-hum selection of repeat offenders make their mark on Encore Action. Not that either of them are particularly egregious - especially the ponderous Jin-Roh - but a little variety is, as they say, the seasoning of life.

That'll be all for the witty repartee for the week, though I'll be back next week for more stories about how I totally invented Punk Rock, raided Tutankhamen's Tomb, and filmed the iconic Hindenburg explosion!
