Animax is now airing koreanovelas...how tokusatsu???



I really don't know if I want to subscribe on a cable network Sky,Home,Dream,Destiny or what???? I would prefer to watch on youtube and not wasting my money by the following channels: 1. Hero(super sentai on saturday??what is that you called power rangers,old school sentai, old kamen rider series or any old that can be)2.Cartoon Network ( also this channel sucks kamen rider series were skipped for example blade then kabuto with lame dubbers, what happen to Hibiki??then power rangers what's next? dragon knight??) then the last the Japanese anime channel 3.Animax all anime series are there including some J-pop songs, but as you've expected they airing also KOREANOVELAS.

Koreanovelas here in the Philippines aired since endless love on GMA7 in 2003, as years goes by it's spreaded out until the present. I'm not against koreanovelas but it sounds unfair for the other otaku community just like us tokufans. Animax is the anime channel but it should be included tokusatsu because live-action format is the difference.

Here's the schedule of Animax http://www.animax-asia.com/shows/schedule. I didn't know if this is included here in the Philippines or not. But this article made me sick!!!.

MANILA, Philippines - Animax viewers in the Philippines are set to enjoy a brand-new entertainment experience starting today, May 3. Giving viewers an opportunity to interact with the channel like never before, Animax will enable viewers to actually decide how the channel looks on-air. Topping it off, viewers can enjoy a series of brand-new live-action programming choices on Animax, starting with music variety show Live Power Music, a reality talent search contest Pretty Boys and Girls, as well as top idol drama series My Girl, Princess Hours and Coffee Prince, straight out of the raging Korean Wave.

Starting today, viewers can look out for Animax's brand new look that includes a new logo, and more excitingly, a matching on-air graphics package that will enable viewers to get creative and actually contribute to how Animax looks on TV!

"Ultimately, it is all about taking engagement and interaction with our audiences to a whole new level, and allowing our viewers to truly take 'ownership' of their favourite brand by directly deciding how the channel looks and feels," said Gregory Ho, Vice President and General Manager, Animax Asia.

Already specializing in Japanese anime and youth entertainment, Animax will add on Korean live-action programming that includes variety, reality, concerts and idol drama series. "With Korea and Japan continuing to lead entertainment trends in Asia, the addition of Korean youth-interest shows to our forte of Japanese entertainment enables Animax to live up to its promise as the region's premiere youth destination," added Ho.

Audiences can catch a dedicated Korean live-action programming hour from 8 - 9pm on weeknights. Taking to the stage on Mondays starting today is Live Power Music, a one-hour show that celebrates the best of Korean music as artistes including DBSK and the Wonder Girls perform their hits live to an adoring audience. On Tuesdays, reality show Pretty Boys and Girls will see ten attractive Korean young talents compete in song and dance in the face of elimination. Idol dramas are lined up Wednesdays to Fridays with the respective romance drama series My Girl premiering May 5, Princess Hours starting May 6, and Coffee Prince commencing May 7. Viewers can expect to catch these shows dubbed in Tagalog, with English subtitles.

Aren't they level-up in this situation??? F.Y.I why are they not included Jdoramas and tokusatsu series if its came from Japan. Why are they included Koreans not any Japanese otaku genre? it sounds okay but that's unfair for the otaku fans.

Aren't Filipinos getting tired airing koreanovelas in different channels and always on a prime time slot. For me this is such a pathetic decision made by animax that should be expecting aired all Japanese otaku genre for us but it follows the flow of the water of present age down to the toilet.
