[Beat]

1:00 Bleach premieres after Death Note scares everyone away. And to think, everyone had such high hopes for it when it premiered. The next Inu-Yasha it is not. The interest has failed to materialize.

On a lighter note, AS admitted in a card that the only reason people watched them was for Family Guy. I wonder if they'll follow that logic to its logical conclusion and put Family Guy on Saturdays.

[Neo Ultra Mike]

Well FG isn't the only reason people watch AS. Family Guy (and Futurama) were the only reasons though more then a million people would watch countless repeats of the block each and every day though even if they're seen the epsiodes dozens of times before. So yeah with FG still along AS will continue to float, and Robot Chicken seems to get really high numbers as well (much be the Seth factor. Anything created by a Seth that plays on AS whether it be a MacFarlane or a green, will get high ratings) along with some of the other originals. Eh I say that American Dad (and Family Guy) should go on Saturday from 11-12 and give Action the other time slots since Futurama never bothered taking away three of ASA's time slots besides Marathons. That way you'd have a good lead in, a good chance for AD to do well on AS more then it has and a more balanced schedule people would appreciate. I'd probably have it as

11:00PM: American Dad
11:30PM: Family Guy (It dosen't matter if Family Guy's second. People have a natural FG sense and will tune in and watch it no matter when it's on so it should be put closer to the ASA shows)
12:00AM: Bleach (New)
12:30AM: Death Note (New)
1:00AM: Blood+ (New for the few eps that remain)
1:30AM: Some other anime. I guess whatever you want to see here like Big O or Fullmetal Alchemist or something along those lines.

[Rabi~en~Rose]

that anime acquistions for this year bump was a real tease

[Master Moltar]

Quick everyone, let's speculate on what the second anime acquistion was!

[Space Cadet]

that anime acquistions for this year bump was a real tease

What did it say/or show?

[Rabi~en~Rose]

What did it say/or show?

1.) Code Geass
2.) AS Games Amateur Surgeon then popped up before even any letters were shown

[macattack]

Edit: Never mind . . . question's been answered.

Still, I want it to be Claymore really badly.

[Kitschensyngk]

What is it with Robot Chicken and these domestic disturbance jokes?

[Rolling Cloud]

Really wish they were more clear as to what that 2nd anime acquistion was. =[

Maybe it'll come up during the night.

or maybe there isn't one?

[macattack]

or maybe there isn't one?

That would be bad. But I don't think so. AS has consistently grabbed 2-3 anime a year for the last couple of years and I doubt that will change.

[delariean]

It'll probably be claymore.....

[SpaceCowboy]

Wasn't it announced it was going to be Buso Renkin?

[Master Moltar]

Well, at least comedy made the top 3 this week.

[Rabi~en~Rose]

[Soul]

Sunday's ratings!
DANG!!
Has that happened? All over a million viewers for the top 3 shows?

[Master Moltar]

Yeah, those look right.

Strong Sunday numbers

[animePWNS]

Death Note
Matsuda: Ryuzaki, is there anything I can do to help with the investigation besides the manager thing?
L: So you really wanna be useful?
Matsuda: Yes!
L: Then could you get me another cup of coffee?
Matsuda: Uh?!
L: And for our guests over there as well…
(we need an L smiley)


Bleach (new eps starting next Saturday!)
Renji: I swore that I’d save her.
Byakuya: You swore this? You swore it to whom?
Renji: No one.
Ichigo: I just swore it.
Renji: I just swore it …
Ichigo and Renji: … TO MYSELF!

Blood +
Secretary(?): Our country constantly needs an enemy. You see an enemy helps the people of this country come together. It is something that can unify them and embodies the American ideal.
Van: In ozer words, fear and illusion are ze essence of ze United States. Am I correct? (I couldn’t resist.:anime

Wasn't really sure who that woman in Blood+ was, but oh well.

Anyway, I can't wait to see what English quotes will be found in the new Bleach episodes. Some juicy stuff is coming ahead...

I just realized the final Blood+ is airing on Easter Sunday (very early). I never thought we'd start celebrating Christ's resurrection by watching Diva finally get hers (hopefully...). Happy Easter, demon b****!

[Sketch]

Hmm... Another decent week for Bleach. I'll bet the premieres will get much better numbers.

2nd anime acquisition. Well I'm much rather it be Claymore than Buso Renkin that's for sure. But I want Monster even more than Claymore.
