Jman Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/business-news/amc-networks-acquires-sentai-anime-streamer-1235070068/ Does every big company sans Disney really need a ready supply of anime? Is AMC going to make a Redo of Healer show to follow Walking Dead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PokeNirvash Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 (edited) AMC's Redo of Healer: Same message, but only 50% of the rape! Serious talk, I could see AMC airing Kaiji and Mr. Tonegawa.

Chapinator_X Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 AMC airing hardcore anime pornography between Better Call Saul and The Walking Dead would be hilarious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3ngag3 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 I would love to see Made in Abyss or Danmachi on AMC lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginguy Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 What was that show on Toonami about assassins that everyone griped about but managed to get massive ratings? I can see AMC doing a LA adaption of that and Chris Hardwick doing a pointless hour show after it.... And yes, Redo of Healer starring Norman Reedus is totally in the works....

Jman Posted January 6, 2022 Author Share Posted January 6, 2022 (edited) I do remember once upon a time an LA Witch Hunter Robin was planned…then people saw the show. Edited January 6, 2022 by Jman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3ngag3 Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 I wonder how many people remember that anime once aired on IFC? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have memories of watching Tenchi Muyo’s first few OVA’s on it without censorship, and the Mihoshi special as well. Feels like forever ago, because it probably was. It’s still a weird acquisition because in a lot of these cases, the idea is to get marketable IPs. Does the world need a LA Lupin III? The Lupin show on Netflix even forewent a direct adaptation of the novels in favor of a French guy who was inspired by them to pull off his heists (good show BTW).

OwlChemist81 Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 I truly believe we may see IFC air Sentai anime again. Perhaps most pre-eminent among the potential is Lupin III Parts 1 and 6. That's another Part 6 Toonami will likely miss out on, but at least they've still got MHA Season 6 coming soon, right?? ...RIGHT!?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top Gun Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 I mean Sentai's just distributing the home video of Lupin. From what I can tell TMS pretty much has full control of the property from their end. They're the ones commissioning the dub with the main English cast. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatch Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 I had a feeling that Sentai was going to be bought by somebody sooner or later. I'm just happy it's not by an entertainment megacorp. And yeah, IFC airing anime again would be pretty neat, although I'm not sure how many people would be able to see it since they're usually on a more expensive cable tier. It helps that they're one of the very few TV networks that airs everything uncut. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
