I just got back to my place and have the teevee on Cartoon Network, so I'll be tuning in. I think both my brothers will be tuning in as well 8)

Deadman Wonderland: From the 1st 15 minutes - a lot of cheap0 CG, cliche handheld camera shots, so-so designs, and cheez voice acting. Hm. I really hope it picks up at least on the story element 8)

Casshern: Strike two. This is a 2000s revamped version of the classic series. It is choke-full of crappy CG, blah chara designs, and cheez voice acting. I don't think I'll be watching this thing to the end. Now, if they could only air the Umetsu Yasuomi version of Casshan, I'd be interested in seeing more 8)

Deadman is actually pretty fun. It's not the greatest series I've ever seen, but it's not moe schlock, either.

Still glad Toonami's back, now we just need some choice shows to air on it.

Nah. It's got a middle-schooler weakling as its main character...

Yep! All kinds of good stuff. Original Harlock series, the first season of Lupin III, two Unico movies, Samurai Pizza Cats (ha!), Venus Wars, the 3rd Galaxy Express 999 movie, 4 Saint Seiya movies, Locke the Superman, Golgo 13 movie, and I'm sure more. It's about time :D

The two Unico movies are: Unico and it's sequel, Unico: The Island of Magic. The first Unico flick is alright but the 2nd one's even better. The latter anime sequel is quite stylish with it's high speed chase/fight scene between Unico and the "witch bitch" character towards the eventual conclusion. You might recall them Hello Kitty stores stateside selling such Unico swag during the mid '80s. Yep, Sanrio had a hand in the production of the first Unico fllm alrighty.
