Anyone see it? Seems like it may not be called Adult Swim Action after all. The host sounds like the voice used on the Radiohead OK Computer CD......

I guess that gives it a "techno, futuristic sound." Well, I'm impressed. Sarcasm aside, the 'Action' Adult Swim looks great, whatever they end up calling it.

This puts out one rumor, maybe more. The YYH = TVY-7 rumor is dead now, because we heard Yusuke say, "I'm gonna kick your ass!" in the promo. This shows a bit of hope for PC, too, and possibly 0083. About 0083, though, it shows that the schedule was messed up, so 0083 may have been given a mistake rating in it.

Anyone else notice the lack of OS and Tenchi in the promo?

I noticed OS & Tenchi missing too. It seems that WS wants to show off thier new shows. Those are just filler shows anyway, so I don't mind.

What show did it air during? I'm not gonna try to rewatch the whole thing again on tape.

It aired about 4 times during the overall block, I think. If anything, you can always watch the Thursday repeat (Is that still around?) or, even better, catch the ASA block next week (Feb 23).

Now can someone explain me the spanking scene at the end? It scared the Hooty outa me!

It's from Yu Yu Hashuko. Satan Jr. is being spanked by daddy Satan. Oh, and I was very impressed that they got Stephen Hawkings to do the voice-over for the commercial (ducks rocks & broken bottles).

That wasn't him. That was either Dave Willis again (from Warren), or just a regular synthesized voice.

Uhh...
I know...
That was sarcasm...
Hence the "(ducks rocks & broken bottles)".
Apparently I didn't duck them all...

It WAS gonna be on Toonami, last spring. Never happened.

I'm hoping ASA will have this lineup, but it probably won't. Hey, I can dream can't I? Oh right I can't. Life is a dream. Guess it's suicide for me. :p

11 PM - Yu Yu Hakusho (TV-PG, slightly edited)
11:30 PM - Cowboy Bebop (TV-14, slightly edited)
12 AM - Pilot Candidate (TV-14, slightly edited or uncut)
12:30 AM - Gundam 0083 (TV-PG, slightly edited or uncut)
1 AM - Outlaw Star (TV-MA, uncut)
1:30 AM - Tenchi Muyo! (TV-MA, uncut)

If you would show Outlaw Star and Tenchi Muyo! uncut with a TV-MA rating, then why edit the other shows at all? :confused:

Until later!

Because we've seen OS and Tenchi at least 4 times. It's about time we saw them to their fullest. Also, the other shows have already been edited, and I doubt the network wants to waste their money by not airing the edits. Not to mention FUNimation never seems to allow their properties to air uncut on TV.

Cool to see a Saturday Adult Swim.

Quick question: What are the 6 shows going to be?

Ah, Pilot Candidate. The trailer on The Big O DVD looked cool so I look forward to that show. Um, is it a good show?

Same thing goes for Gundam 0083.

Adult Swim Action looks pretty tight! [I want to see Pilot Canidate!] The commercial is certainly attractive to all the shows [cept tenchi and outlaw,they've been left out!] I cant wait till the twenty-third! Gettin me some Vitamin ASA! [Ha ha got that from Marco from Sealab! You know,Vitamin M... Get it?]

It's about time we see some Barbie doll nudity on Tenchi!

But since this is a dream, i'd wish for a 12 hour block with every great anime, and some Spawn all uncut!

Now that's dreaming bud!

I saw the promo sometime during the Home Movies hour. It was awsome. I'm definatly gonna check out Yu Yu Hakusho after seeing the shots from show itself (even though the devil-spanking-baby scene freaked me out). I hope they show the original intros, 'specially since I love 0083's first one.
