After it became known that RTL II will remove the cult series "Pokemon" from its program at the end of March, the broadcaster appears to be preparing for a complete exit.
First quotes in this direction hinted at a change. "Children's programming will likely be seen more on other channels in the future," according to the quoted statement from the RTL II editorial team.
On April 21, RTL II will end the children's programming currently broadcast on Sunday mornings. Instead, the channel plans to show family-friendly series and films in that time slot. Additionally, the broadcaster intends to launch its own online anime channel on rtl2.de. This trend was already evident through Facebook "Like" campaigns.
Further details about this new anime online channel will be announced by RTL II at a later date. The concept is still being worked on.
