A lot has changed over the past 24 hours. Just yesterday, a TechTV Representative stated that Last Exile hadn't been acquired. Today, TechTV officially announces that Last Exile will air on the channel in March.
Here are excerpts from TechTV's press release:
TechTV proudly announces the acquisition of Gonzo Studio's stunning 10th anniversary anime series "Last Exile." Licensed from Geneon, the first thirteen episodes of "Last Exile" will premiere in special prime time hours of "Anime Unleashed" starting Monday, March 8.
Starting Monday, March 8, 2004, two episodes of "Last Exile" will air every night on this schedule.
Monday-Friday from 10-11 p.m. Eastern (replacing "Robot Wars")
Saturday from 10-11 p.m. Eastern (replacing "Unscrewed")
Those 12 episodes will be followed by an afternoon/evening marathon of "Last Exile":
"LE" Marathon Sunday, March 14 from 4 p.m. - 10:30 p.m. Eastern.
Fans are in for a special treat at the end of this marathon, when they'll get a sneak peek airing of episode 13, which is not yet available on DVD.
TechTV will also acquire episodes 14 to 26 of "Last Exile," still in production, so look for those to air on "Anime Unleashed" early in 2005.
