Moribito:  Guardian of the Spirit, which had been airing at 1:30 a.m. on Adult Swim since November (see “Adult Swim Increases Anime Programming”), is no longer being shown.  A rerun of the first ten episodes had just been completed. 

 

Media Blasters president John Sirabella explained the situation on the Mania (AOD) boards:  the show’s TV rights had been handled by Geneon and reverted to Production IG after the collapse of Geneon.  Media Blasters has the DVD rights only.  “This is a matter between the CN and the producers,” his post said.  “If they can work it out then we will be happy to do the work so it can get the remaining episodes on TV; otherwise we will handle the DVD distribution.”
