I'm an American fan that found this show on the internet, but was it ever on tv? I think it would be a good addition to the AdultSwim line up, its thousands better than most of the crap they show now...
Actually, they showed it (and still do) on the Anime Network. I believe they even air(ed) episode 26. And in case you aren't a fan of the dub (like me, I despise it), they don't show the subbed version.
I find dub versions are better because I don't care about authenticity or whatever reason you people like subs and I don't have to read the bottom of the screen to know what's going on. And I don't get the Anime Network...
That's only one of the reasons I don't like the dub.
1. The Animation USA episode doesn't work very well if they're already speaking English (and I have seen both versions). 2. Why would they be speaking English in Japan? 3. Excel's Japanese voice irritates me too, but not in a "I want to kill myself" kind of way. 4. Koshi Rikdo sounds like a tranny in the English version, IMO.
And normally I like English dubs the same or more than the original, so don't give me *beep* about liking the subbed version more.
Yes, this is true. When I had Comcast with the Anime Network on demand I had full access to watch every episode whenever I wanted...with the exception of the 26th episode.
