    Magical Shopping Arcade Abenobashi

    Like This Thread!
    I just wanted to know if anoyone agrees with me in saying that Magical Shopping Arcade Abenobashi should come to Adult Swim.
    I just bought the first DVD today and think that the series is awsome. My reasons in thinking that it shoul come to Adult Swim are the following:
    1) It's funny and out of this world
    2) it's made by Gainax
    3) It's like FLCL where anything can happen
    What do you think?

    Isn't it an ADV property? If so, then there's probably no chance.

    Never in a million years! But I'd love Williams Street and ADV if they did make a reality.

    What does it have to do with being for a white kid? Who cares who the show's dedicated to? If it's good, cost effective, and available, get it.

    I don't think it has to do with bad relationships with ADV. I just think ADV would prefer to put stuff on their semi-anime network.

    No, apparently ADV is still actively pitching shows to CN.

    NEVER!!!!*





    *Never should translate as "It's possible", or perhaps as "I may have misread it breifly, but then reread it, because I have a penchant for detail, and then decided to play off the misreading anyway because I thought it would be funny," however inane it may seem.

    Well, that was as of April 2003. Hopefully the next time I get to talk to ADV's rep in April 2004, it'll still be the case that they are pitching to CN.

    I still wonder if ADV is just being to picky about what to pitch to who, especially considering that everyone else is trying to pitch every property they get to everyone open to it.

    They must have REALLY hated the ratings from GRW...

    If the CN execs turned down Angelic Layer then they deserve to be shot!

    ::Waits for the inevitable "Angelic Layer should go to ASA" comment::

    Anyways, I've seen images of Abenobashi... I want to see it. Hell, that Mune girl was my avatar for a while.

    If dub-quality is a deciding factor for a CN getting anime, I can see why Angelic Layer (and why a lot of the other ADV shows have been turned down by CN.) Many of the VA's can't even their own character's name pronounced right, let alone the name of the other characters in Angelic Layer.

    That however, is not an issue with Abenobashi, which has a very nice dub IMO.

    ADV= bah I can't think of a humorious way to say what the abreviations mean...

    Anyways Abenobashi currently o nly has volume 1 out and volume 2 is going to be released very shortly, besides there are gratutious shots of ass and boobs that may cause them to concieve the ever so hated digi-bikini...I mean there are limits and then there are limits

    Anyway, I agree that it would be perfect for Adult Swim. It's like Fooly Cooly, but with a crossdresser!

    Can we expect to see as many I want Abenobashi on Adult Swim threads as we saw for Excel Saga?
    It probably won't but it should be on AS. I just preordered the 2nd volume and i can't wait for it to come in. It's really awesome.
