RTL II - autumn program: new anime and new slots

El Cartel-Media, the direct marketer of RTL II,

has announced the program schedules for the third quarter

in a downloadable PDF file. The file mentions, among other things,

all the new series for the fall,

which, however, had already been revealed in the

Animania 6/2004 issue released a few days ago.

More interesting, though, is the fact that RTL II

will apparently expand its anime time slots by a solid 2 hours

starting October 2004. From 4-5 PM, a double episode of Yu-Gi-Oh,

and from 5-6 PM, a double episode of Dragonball Z will be aired.

The following series will air in RTL II's children's programming between July and October:
