TV5 Animega Stays Alive.


Like I said in my earlier article, let's wait and see this evening. To those who didn't check the updates I made in my previous article, here's a recap.

Street Fighter II V is now airing at 3:30pm, in theory, to fill in the 4pm timeslot, Yatterman (2008) was moved in the 4pm timeslot. According to sources from the forums, the shobiz-oriented show, Juicy! was moved in the 11:30pm timeslot and 5Max Movies was moved in the 7:30pm timeslot, thus causing a major face lift on the schedule.

Now, the current schedule is this:
6pm - Clannad
6:30pm - Casshern Sins (M-Th), Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood (F)
7pm - D.Gray-Man

Based on the latest advertisements of the Korean drama, all dramas aired in a Monday-Friday timeslot, axing the Saturday timeslot which means, there are two-three hours free. The question is, what will happen to the Saturday afternoon timeslot? Let's wait and see.

So far, the fans (including me) had a hard time accepting this new schedule. IMO, the previous schedule was better! Now, TV5 Animega's Facebook page is flooding with comments about the new line-up. Let's look at the bright side. At  least we still have anime on Primetime than not to have anime on Primetime... even though it is now 1 hour and 30 minutes, not 2 hours.

But this issue left one big question, what show will replace Clannad considering that it is about to end this week? Will Inuyasha appear to save the block, or Clannad will be replaced by Korean drama?
