Why? Anime can't be considered comedic?

I think the problem is people arent seing Comedy and Action sa the seperator but American and Japanese, which is not what it should be.

If you had ever seen Lupin, particularly the series CN is showing, you would know why.

Action does not = anime.

Its more comedy than action, that simple.

[meatwad945]

well i didnt know all i knew is that it was anime and most anime is action oriented (dont yell at me if it isnt) im sorry i got my answer i thought it was a messup my mistake

This means that on weekday Adult Swim, comedy will be getting the first 1 1/2 hours, and action will only have 1 1/2 hours as well.

That's too bad, I'm hoping that maybe if there is a lot of new action material to show, they'll make the action segment of the block 30 minutes longer, or vice versa, and just change it depending on which area currently has the most new stuff to show.

Anime crosses all genres: comedy, action, scifi, drama, romance, horror. Sometimes a show will fit into multiple categories.

Unless Reign is Comedy, and it isn't, it looks like there will be more of a mix between the Comedy and Action sides.

And I highly doubt Matt Wilson was correct that Action and Comedy will have different formats on the Weekday block.

Why would they spend money on a new look for ASA and then just never use it?

I dunno. They were intending to use it, but now there's no place for it. Since Lupin will air AFTER Reign in February, all bounds between Action and Comedy have been destroyed.

Perhaps they'll use the new ASA look for all of ASW. I'm just saying that ASW will have one layout, not two for different shows.

It could be that maybe the scheduel is a bit screwed up and that Reign is taking Inu Yasha's spot, as opposed to Lupins and Lupin being pushed back..

Who knows though, prolly not since it will bea new show but its a response to the fact of boundaries...

When were they making a new thing for ASA i must have missed that.

Oooh. Somebody's backpedaling.

If the site goes up and it sports the comedy look, then it's more definitive.
