I was recently asked by someone at Funimation which program was a better to air a anime on Anime Unleshed or Adult Swim. Well to be completely honest I didnt have a clue which to respond to. I simply stated that Anime Unleashed tends to jump around alot in terms of episode arrangement (Read or Die which is on now is the best proof of that.) While I stated that Adult Swim has a bigger fan base and that they've aired more animes than any other nightly program.
So all and all I really sided with Adult Swim I guess however Anime Unleashed has some of the animes you'll never see on adult swim and I find ther usually more humor directed than say adult swims which is sort of funny like Trigun but Serious like GITS.
So which one do you like to watch more?

Anime Unleashed runs on G4-TV (formerly TechTV before they merged with G4) every night at 1am eastern (not sure about other time zones, sorry).
it runs some pretty good stuff, but since it's a tech channel not many people expect to see anime on it. thusly Anime Unleashed has a smaller fandom than Adult Swim.

I never heard of Anime Unleashed before, so I’d have to go with Adult Swim.

I prefer Anime Unleashed, my interest was peaked in it when they aired Serial Experiment: Lain. It is better than Adult Swim, just not as long.

I don't have Anime Unleashed, but I have seen Serial Experiments: Lain ( the first DVD ). I have to say that she's quite the intriguing little girl. But other than that, I'm restricted to Adult Swim. Honestly, if some other channel had the anime that AS has, I'd make the switch. I don't like the fact that Bebop, GitS, Wolf's Rain, and the others ( Inuyasha could stay at AS. Seems to fit the fan base just right. ) have to share the same name as shows such as Aqua Teen Hunger Force; the single most stale and retarded animation and comedy I've ever seen. Yet the kiddies eat it up. I've not laughed once at it's craptasticness. |

i've laughed at sealab a few times, but only because the mexican dude, named Marco i believe is so funny, it's just some of the things he does crack me up.

Ive seen 1-2 episodes of it, i remember one i saw with this monster killing everyone, and in the end it was like "i just wanted a friend" or something, and i thought it was funny.
as for ATHF, i watched one episode and didnt laugh once. just bs.
as for robot chicken, that was okay. stupid, but funny.
then theres family guy which i love, and futurama's stupidity is funny.
i dont remember what else there is, but i HATE milk chan. i watched that for like 1 minute before changing the channel out of disgust.

Anime Unleashed plays some good stuff, I liked watching Crest of the Stars and Banner of the Stars on it (altho I think the rights to air Crest expired, as the last time they aired Banner of the Stars they didn't air Crest before it). they've also aired Boogiepop Phantom, SoulTaker, Betterman and several others.
the only real complaint I have with them is the crap they pulled with R.O.D the TV... repeating the first half again, showing only 4 new eps, then going back to the beginning. I want to see more of that... and I wanna see more of Gungrave too.
