[josh]

That list annoys me.

Dragonball suprises me at 24.

Pft!!! Inyuasha at 30.

If the Yu Gi Oh fans new about this section I'm sure it would have got well over 50 lol.

[darkearthgoddess]

I can't believe it Inu Yasha and Dragonball? those to are better then some of the animes, it must be the reruns meh!

[Duuz]

Well want do you expect when most of those on the top of the list has appeared on CN? Look at it...

30 Inuyasha Cartoon Network
29 Fullmetal Alchemist
24 Dragonball Cartoon Network
23 Ruruouni Kenshin/Samauri X Cartoon Network
18 Yu-Gi-Oh Cartoon Network
15 Love Hina
14 Yuyu Hakusho Cartoon Network
13 Trigun Cartoon Network
12 Gungrave
11 Cowboy Bebop Cartoon Network
10 SAIYUKI
10 Hellsing
10 Fruits Basket

I might have missed some. I really haven't been watching CN since (yep, it's lower on the list) Gundam Seed ended.

I think this shows CN has an influence on the younger and newer anime fans. To the point where they'll pass by the best works and the classics.

I must not have posted on that thread, I don't see Urusei Yatsura any where on that list. I should go correct that.

[~*BEWD_GIRL*~]

Wow great list, I haven't even posted on the Fav Anime board but all my favorites are on there. I think I'll go post over there right now....

[The Naturalist]

Flame of Recca is tied for #1???? Above Kenshin, FMA, and Inuyasha!?!?!? I hate the anime version with a passion!

[crystal_tears]

Angel of Death, i think the number means how many people like it.

[The Naturalist]

Ah. That would explain it. Now I look like an idiot...

[Captain Corkscrew]

Alot of those top shows aren't jsut on CN, they are on YTV, Teletoon and Fox too. I know I don't get CN, so I have to resort to Fox Box in the mornings, and YTV in the mornings and eventings. Teletoon used to carry Cardcaptor Sakura, but I don't think they do much anymore. Yah most of those are now at movies stores too. I know that was the only way I could see Fullmetal Alchemist.

[Dark Lilly]

Only ones I know for sure. Just got G4TV. Don't watch anything "Satauraday Morning."

oh, and Blue Gender was on Adult Swim

(Could never figure out why they ran Kenshin and Gundam Seed on Cartoon Network and Case Closed on Adult Swim.)

[Duuz]

Yeah, why was Case Closed on Adult Swim and Gundam Seed on CN. Although Gundam Seed did get moved from it's 10:30 PM time slot to a 2:00 AM time. There probably was an explanation, although I never heard what it was. I don't think it was the ratings, as there are now a swarm of Gundam Seed fans just like there was a bunch of Wing fans after Wing ran on CN.

[animesumo]

It is a good list pretty accurate but there should bemore shows added to it.
