Poll: Do you think Cartoon Network will air Gundam Seed Destiny?

I strongly doubt it, since they practically buried the original.

If they decided to air a new Gundam series on CN, it's the most likely candidate.
Whether they do or not is another thing, but I would say there is a decent chance.

I agree with MasterDias. It would be the likliest pick from the Gundom Series. Also, they aired the entire series of G:SEED, so they probably see how popular it is-- and will show the next season. Or at least we hope.

I really doubt it since they bury the original Seed so late.

I'd hope they dont, even though the show could possibly kill it's own ratings starting about episode 35 (some would argue starting ep.15), with minimal editing for blood; let alone the disco laser guns. I still dont know if I'm going to bother buying the DVDs

I actually suspect they will. It's one of those series that you don't have to worry about editting, for the most part, and it has a broader appeal than many of the shows AS has been purchasing and failing to sell to its audience (Paranoia Agent comes to mind.)

I'd be amused if YTV aired it an CN didn't^^ Since apparently the original season's had really good ratings up here... only managed to catch one ep personally though. Not for a while though since shows like FMA are JUST starting to air here this week...

Yes, I can see them airing it. Why do you ask this for, because of one reason. Bandai and CN are very good friends and Bandai doesn't care if CN burys Gundam Seed Destiny like they did with Gundam Seed or Gundam. Not to make Bandai into a bad guy or anthing, but all Bandai cares about is getting the money from CN on showing anything that they have. After that, Bandai doesn't really care if they show the anime or bury it. ADV, Geneon and FUNimation are the only ones that play hard ball with CN, when CN wants to buy the rights to their shows. Bandai will jump through rings of fire for CN if they pay them well.

Cynical maybe, but its true. Bandai does care about its fans, but they show that caring for the fans on what they put on the dvd's. Bandai likes to give more to the fans as extras and more eps on dvd's and stuff. They have been very good about sending you another dvd disk out, if you have a problem with it. They are very good about doing recalls on dvd's and I also tell people that if you have a problem with Bandai dvd disk, to e-mail them and let them know about it. I have meet the PR person for Bandai before and he very nice and can tell they do care about the fans, but when it comes to showing stuff on tv, they are lay back a bit. The only thing that they worry about is too much editing done to the animes that they have. This is why they will not give anything to Fox anymore after what Fox did to Escaflowne. If you look at the anime that as been showed on CN, it has been mostly Bandai's stuff up untill now really.

The thing is, Bandai is not going to get hurt by CN if they bury the anime or so. Bandai has alot of cash cow anime, where ADV and other are still trying to catch up a bit.

When you think of Bandai, what anime comes to mind that owned.

When you think of ADV and the others, what anime comes to mind that they owned.

8 times out of 10, most will think of Bandai stuff first.
