Is [adult swim] going gay for anime?

Post by Ishbalan » Thu Mar 13, 2008 9:10 pm

A friend of mine told me that a yuri anime will be replacing Death Note when it finishes its run in the summer, and that a yaoi anime will be replacing Code Geass after it finishes its run near the end of the year.

Can someone confirm this is true, or is my friend just bullshitting me?

I think ur being jerked around, since most anime shown on adultswim is action based if not all.

I very seriously doubt it. :O

Though I think it would be interesting to see some reactions. :O

I don't remember the name of the yuri anime he mentioned, but it wasn't Utena.
I remember the yaoi he said was Gravitation
Also, he said the reason for this was so that [adult swim] could show its support for the gay marriage issues going on right now.
It does sound like something AS would do....

Gravitation? Really. :shock:

Not a huge fan of that one. :?

But I'm pretty sure it's a hoax.

Its Code Geass. They aren't replacing it with yaoi, that is the yaoi.
