Rumors are that Evangelion is coming to CN. I find it hard to believe but since Naruto has also been acquired by CN, i would not be too surprised. So, can anyone confirm or refute this?

I hope not. I'd like to see them air some better series like Full Metal Panic!, Scrapped Princess, and Cromartie Highschool.
Besides, Eva would have some significant editing and the exploitive religious content will only bring AS problems. They had parents complaining about FLCL, I think Eva would only bring more controversy. Those other 3 series I mentioned; Scrapped Princess could air with no edits, and the only things that would really need some editing in FMP! and Cromartie is editing out the word s h i t , which comes up not too often in FMP!, and rarely in Cromartie Highschool.

Whats wrong with FLCL? T_T There were some parents voicing their dislike for the show. A lot of the complaints dealt with the sexual innuendo, but there were complaints about other things, as well. I think Eva will have more parents complaining about CN showing things they think they should not (even though it's "adult" swim...), and the way Christianity is used exploitatively in the series is sure to get some Christian extremists throwing fits about the series, CN, and likely Japanese animation on the whole. No thanks to that. |

Well, Eva was aired for one week on Toonami, in the so called giant robo week or something.
CN edited Eva so badly that it was difficult to watch it. Now they are going to air it all, not sure if it is going to be on Toonami or that damn Miguzi(sp?).
AS has Eva on its black list, meaning that it will probably never air it.

Nevermind stupid Toonami, Eva will air on AS.
This is from the AS forums:
Although no air date has yet been decided, Adult Swim will, in the near future, air the classic anime show Neon Genesis Evangelion. NGE is the story of Shinji Ikari, a teenage boy recruited by his estranged father to pilot the giant Evangelion Unit-01 to defend the earth against a horde of monsterous, invading alien creatures known as the Angels. A unique mix of exceptional battle scenes, religious symbolism, psychological storytelling and teenage angst, Neon Genesis Evangelion has been referred to by many as one of the greatest anime shows ever made.
