Gundam SEED, A Situationer

Hmm, for the past 8 months already, I am still applauding Gundam SEED, It is one of ABS-CBN's Jewelled Anime Treasures and much as I applaud the WHOLE ABS-CBN Anime Department like Ms. Evelyn Raymundo, Ms. Millette Mortiz, And the Dubbers particularly Mr. Michael Punzalan(also the dubbing director), Ms. Wendy Villacorta, Mr. Louie Paraboles, Ms. Teng Masilungan, Mr. Raffy Miranda, Mr. Jeff Utanes, Mr. Bernie Malejana, Mr. Alexx Agcaoili, Ms. Maripette Narvasa and the other Dubbers, Since the start of Gundam SEED, It was the Most Beautiful series that I've ever saw on ABS-CBN, Better than "Marina" or "Kampanerang Kuba" or even the upcoming "Panday"

But from what I have observed is that, We all knew that ABS launched(not premiered) the series early October, While the Ragnarok the Animation is still in craze over Mega Manila, Rumors had told that GS was going to make a big switch because primarily, GM* was at the Helm of the Gundam series, But when ABS aired some of Sunrise Ltd./TBS/MBS/JNN animes on their anime block, It was concluded therefore that GS will be at ABS-CBN

and the rumors , therefore , were correct

There did some suspicions on whether ABS will tolerate GS as if like a cartoon series, IT became false when ABS run on it's primetime block PROMO ads of the upcoming Series as early as October, Everybody was clueless on who's to dub, what ABS is going to do on the Series, what will be the treatment, Etc etc.

When the series was aired over Mega Manila last December, everybody was expecting that the Series will lead against the UNPHENOMENAL Slam Dunk, But, as much as I was going to expect a double-digit rating on GS. It was not.

It was a mere chance of "chased by the enemy" type, the FAT MEN Of the other network were very very happy on the result, GS was lagging behind the stupid anime by a mere 17 percent or more, according to their Index known as the "Kanguso Magazine", Yeah, How sad but true, Also, the loss was also attributed to the non-nationalization of the Anime(yeah, no Satellite Feeds of GS to the Other RNG stations because of "localization"
But anyway, although lost in the ratings, GS held more fans than the old stupid rerun, It created more fans and more people believed that ABS is going to tolerate GS as if like CN's version, That is why Fans like yours truly made a sound-stepping petition to AIR THE SEQUEL OF THE SERIES, because we believe, that ABS-CBN is the only one who can DUB, AIR AND MAKE FANS OUT OF Destiny,

So now, I hope that you are now more enlightened at the situation of GS when it was on it's regular run and I hope, after this, you may be able to join in my crusade by waking up at 0700PHT(2300GMT/1800EST) to watch Gundam SEED, Only here on Kapamilya (one in family) ABS-CBN

*TRIVIA* Do you knew that GS is the Only anime that was preceded by the Full Version of the Christmas Station ID of ABS-CBN! and also, The newscasters of TVP World were also keen on watching GS before it was moved on the 1730PHT slot!!!

Now you know
