Michiko and Hatchin is pretty decent, and I'm surprised that they're airing it. It isn't particularly popular.


I hope it will be popular with toonami.
such a great show.

Michiko to Hatchin sounds a bit interesting. Something Shinichi Watanabe-esque in spirit, but I'll have to see to be sure. Agame ga Kill just sounds like the same old, hotshot, mean-spirited bullcrap that comes out nowadays (corruption, murder, unlikeable gray-area characters devoid of a moral compass or valor). I hate being told to root for the lesser of the to evils. Where are all the heroes, for crissake!!!??? Pass.

Dub was confirmed on their Facebook page.

As for the Anime version of AgK They diverged from the manga around episode 17/18 and the whole story went down hill to a lack luster finale. (The manga is still going and is much more coherent)

Michiko is a personal favorite and was something I originally picked up on a whim. Glad I did. I was pleased when I found out it was produced by Manglobe, since I loved the animation in Ergo Proxy, and the quality in MtH did not disappoint. I guess this will be good exposure for it and I hope it can be appreciated for what it is.

I really do hope michiko finds the popularity it so deserved with this airing, its really criminal that the show underperformed

Jizzy as you would call yourself because youre a dick The most butthurt award goes to you And clearly you havent watched that many shows thats why you cant determine if a show is unique or not Or maybe you're just a child who likes common stuffs where hero saves the day and guys gets all the girls. Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me

Haven't seen either one yet. Kinda looking forward to Michiko to Hatchin. Akame ga Kill doesn't sound too interesting to me.

Good for Michiko to Hatchin, I feel that show didn't get much(if any) attention while it was airing. Even though he wasn't directing the show, you'd think Watanabe just composing the soundtrack would have attracted some attention at least.

And as for Akame ga Kill....I guess Adult Swim always needs something for the edgsters.

I can't wait to see both, but I lean towards Michiko to Hatchin more since I've never seen it. Can't wait to cry at the disappointing ending of AgK in english. Oh the magic. <3

heck I've heard some people saying they Want K-ON on the lineup,and I said really? I don't think a girly show should fit on a action block. It's better if Disney gets K-ON.

How is K-On a girly show? It's seinen.

I stopped watching AkG around episode 7 and never got back to it (I was enjoying it for the most part though), so I might just watch it in English... granted Sentai does a good job with dubbing it.

Michiko and Hatchin looks good, I'll give it a shot.

now i really feel like watching michiko to hatchin, i'll try catching it on toomami once it starts airing. akame ga kill never once caught my interest, and i don't think i'll be watching it anytime soon. still, it's intriguing how toonami is going to handle it, since it doesn't have a dub.

I enjoyed Akame ga kill each week. It a pretty awesome show. The anime went orginal after episode 19 which wasnt to bad and the last ep sucked. Other then that its a kickass anime.

I asked Sentai while Akame ga Kill was still airing if they were gonna dub it, their reaction: "I would be surpised if it wasnt". So how big is the chance it will be a dubbed airing this summer? Pretty high i assume. I dont know alot about adult swim, I cant watch it here in Holland/Netherlands, however from what ive seen each anime they had was dubbed.

Heard only good things about Michiko to Hatchin, so I might give it a watch. Akame.....not exactly excited about. I would think they'd do Tokyo Ghoul before AgK.

True that akame ga kill was disappointing at the end since so many died but i believe that the point of this anime wasn't to pick favorites and have them somehow overcome all the odds with no casualties. This anime shows the true nature of corruption and how conflict can lead to losses on both sides.
