I think another factor in reruns is if the shows are timeless enough to interest the next age group that comes along. My older grand kids, who are 17 and 18+ liked pokemon and now my younger set, 2, 4, 6, 8 are loving them.
The American Disney films are a lot like that.

If your a fan of either the manga and/or anime of Sailor Moon I suggest giving the live-action version a chance. It's cheesy at times but it has a lot of heart put into it.

Speaking of good series, have you ever read/watched YuYu Hakusho? It's by Yoshihiro Togashi who's married to Naoko Takeuchi, creator of Sailor Moon.

I want to thank Fanfic Lady for bringing this thread to my attention. It has been a strange year so far for manga and anime. Tokyopop closes it's North American branch (though it was predictable by longterm company followers) which leaves alot of titles in lingo. On the other hand series such as Hetalia are extremely popular.
Hetalia is my current obsession.

I am excited because FUNimation has released the trailer on YouTube for "Hetalia Paint It, White!" I really like the dub's accents and the effort this company puts into the series.

I'm watching STAR BLAZERS again. Man, what an emotional show this is!
Going thru it about one episode per day, to get the full impact of each one. Just got to the destruction of Telasart today. Really powerful message in this one, as Trelayna tells Prince Zordar that if he were really powerful, he'd help others, not ENSLAVE them.
Tomorrow will be the very 1st episode I happened across back in November 1979, which totally blew my mind. I came up with my own titles for each episode decades back, and that one I named "A GATHERING OF ARMADAS".

I discovered Kochikame yesterday. It's really funny and I can totally relate to their lives.
