Monster is quite simply one of the best shows I've ever seen, and I'm a Sopranos, Dexter and The Wire nut (I actually put it in this bracket of quality).
The America refrence is towards adult swim US while we are still behind America and probably will be for while yet picking up a series like Monster unlicensed and subbed wouldn't happen in America and it's far to mature for CN America. I really hope Animecentral launch a Seinen block.
Even if CN picked up Monster it would be edited for content and to remain unedited would mean that Showtime or HBO would have to pick it up.
Not Monster, But more relating to the thread itself. Redgore scanned in the Haruhi advertisement for us on the IRC earlier. Just thought I'd share with you lot who haven't got the mag yet. By the looks of it, we on the IRC decided its probably going to be a Revelation release.

To do Monster on AC, That quote previously given sounded a lot like he was just saying we are planning on showing epitome of anime rather then dwelling on the little child-like shows and be stuck in the kids section.

I'd say it's pretty much impossible to think that they have the rights to Monster, and that they're going to show it subtitled.
Unless they've somehow got the rights from Viz... I'd put money on this not happening.
EDIT: Just read the post above, not having Neo to check I'll just have to take it from the quote... That is certainly interesting!

Well, it's certainly licensed for DVD release in France, and from ANN it looked like maybe Spain and the Netherlands were on the way at least.J_C_X said:
Aren't there separate licences for doing a tv showing and a dvd release? I thought there were... if that was the case, they could just be looking at the former?
Geez, if they do manage to show it on UK tv, it'll be awesome, but also kinda odd - I was always so sure it'd never be shown/released in the UK. But then, I was always sure that Beck and Full Moon wo Sagashite would never get licenced outside of Japan. Clearly, my predictions suck ^^;

It says in the Neo magazine;
That is the EXACT words in Neo magazine, and since I haven't got a scanner I had to type it out.
Edit: Oh, and at the bottum of the page it says in the "HOT & NOT" section; MONSTER. Whilst Anime Central promises to show it, there's still no news of an actual date for VIZ Media anime series Monster.
He's "promising" it, lets just hope he keeps to his promise which hopefully AC will!

It's as good as licensed, as well as Hunter x Hunter.
I think it's worth while to say that all Shounen Jump-esque series have been licensed by Viz, or at least all of the series that ShoPro/Shogakukan (Viz' parent companies) hold the Japanese license to. (Unless another company is specifially going after a title (such as Black Cat, One Piece etc)
The NATPE listing: ( http://www.natpe.org/conference/exhibit ... K$$7YmVw** ) (stupid BB code, sorry, have to add the asterisks') for Viz is a strong indication of the license. Honey and Clover was on the list before it was properly 'licensed' by Viz as well I think. (Probably along with some other titles.. I'm not really sure).

Is it just me or does what he said sound a little bit sarcastic? Maybe it's a joke? It was going fine until he said about the cosplay. I'm sure that's just a joke, but to me it just seems a little bit out of place, especially after saying such an odd thing as showing Monster subtitled...
