Well, we can forgot CN every getting leftover AU titles now.


It looks like G4 is sending all their anime tv rights to Canada.

Looks like.And in the meantime they seem to be treating their U.S. anime audience like dirt.

Not to mention their U.S. gamer audience.

Someday I'll be able to tell my kids, "I remember when G4 was a video game channel."

Oh wait, no I won't - G4 will be off the air long before I have kids.

It takes way more than a line up of anime shows I don't even like to move me to that country.

I just have one thign to say: I'm Canadian and won't be getting to see this :/ First off, one major cable provider here (the one that I have) is NOT giving a free preview, and it's for like satellite/digital cable too, which I don't have :/ Maybe it was the same for USAers, I'm not sure. But I just know that I myself won't even see it, but I would if I had it :/

That was the same way for me here in the US. The only way to see G4 was to have digital cable or satellite. So, its not our lost as the people here or in Canada, but a lost on G4 part.

Will it be the same as the old Techtv/G4 line up of AU or will they also have new titles?
