'''''Anime Unleashed''''' was an [[anime]] block that was [[Broadcasting|broadcast]] on the [[United States|American]] [[cable television|cable TV]] [[television network|network]] [[G4 (U.S. TV channel)|G4]]. The block was placed on the original [[TechTV]] in early 2003 and moved to [[G4techTV]] after the two networks merged. Titles airing on the block almost exclusively came from domestic anime distributors [[A.D. Vision#ADV Films|ADV Films]], [[Bandai Visual#Bandai Entertainment|Bandai Entertainment]] and [[NBCUniversal Entertainment Japan#Geneon USA|Geneon Entertainment USA]] (formerly Pioneer Entertainment).

==History==

Anime Unleashed was first announced by [[The Screen Savers]] host [[Leo Laporte]] in late 2001. TechTV's vision was to air a wave of anime series that dealt with technology, futuristic themes, and science fiction. Its premiere date was December 30, 2002.<ref>[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2002-12-06/tech-tv-anime-unleashed-schedule Tech TV Anime Unleashed Schedule - Anime News Network<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>

On March 16, 2006, Anime Unleashed was taken off the G4 schedule. The broadcast rights to the shows still airing on Anime Unleashed before its cancellation are assumed to have long since expired (and in the case of shows licensed from the now-defunct Geneon, reverted to the original Japanese licensors or picked up by other companies, such as [[Funimation]])

Anime would not air again on the network until 2011, when ''[[Marvel Anime]]'' made its North American debut on [[G4 (U.S. TV channel)|G4]].
