    Another interesting response from DeMarco. The wording is a bit vague, but it appears AS may have helped co-fund Kick-Heart much in the same way they did with Space Dandy and GITS. Whether this means they have perpetual broadcast rights to it and plan to continue showing it from time-to-time remains to be seen.

    Didn’t know you helped fund Kick-Heart. Personally or did Adult Swim do it? If the latter, was it through a special deal or did they do it through KickStarter like everyone else?

    It was an agreement between AS and Production IG. Way before the Kickstarter.

    In some not-specifically-Toonami related news, Regular Show and Adventure Time are now listed on AS’s schedule at 9PM starting Monday, November 11th. I find it very unlikely that AS will be showing RS and AT as part of its lineup, meaning Cartoon Network may be encroaching on AS’s airtime by an hour and that slot simply hasn’t been removed from AS.com’s schedule yet.

    EDIT: Seems the time change is only temporary through the new year. Everything goes back to normal afterwards. Cartoon Network even made a promo for this “Gift Time” as they’re calling it.
