If this airs in the U.S what network would it be on?

I'd say they did a pretty good job with it, considering the circumstances. "I've got the best 'technique' around!" can be taken mutiple ways, especially if you're the type that sees innuendo everywhere.
Of course, ecchi is more obvious, I guess.

If Sakisaka's puns are too hard to translate, they'll probably just leave them out or completely replace them. I've only seen 3 episodes of the series, but I don't think a pun would have all that much of an impact on the plot. *wishes she could've caught some epsodes while she was in Japan*

The one I worry about the most is Saburou, who uses riddles and analogies constantly. They can leave most of them alone, its not like they're difficult to understand after all, but would they decide to replace them with western riddles or analogies of a similar meaning?

I'm just hoping that none of the voices will be too annoying, especially with characters I like such as Ender/Pai, Ovan, Gord, Naobi/Yata, Saburou, etc. And, of course, Haseo, because we'll have to spend the majority of time with him.

Well, I've heard it's scheduled to release in Fall '06... I doubt it will be put on TV, only on DVD. Wasn't Udeden DVD only also? If so, I don't think the NA Channels are interested in .Hack... Just an opinion though.

twilight bracelatte( i know it is wronggly spelled) aired on fridays at night, not during adultswim, just kinda late, like 1:30 or so.

nope, saturday. the same time Sign aired on Adult swim. in fact, i remember that because when i had satelite, i looked for when it was on after Sign went off, and Sign was in the usual spot, but it was Twilight Bracelette.

then i missed it, i remeber sign being on saturdays at like 12 or so but when i watched twilight i saw it on fridays at one in the morning, whatever, i hope roots either gets the one peice slot, come on that dub just sucks, or goes to adult swim, i want to hear "bastard" when there is one to be heard originally.

shhhh.....you'll wake him up

(sry for being off topic)
on topic-twilight came on at different times, at one point it was saturday mornings (1 or so) at another time it was sunday morning (1 or so)

well i suppose it won't matter in the end, we all saw it right? we all laughed at the very close hug between rena and shugo, that is what matters. plus g4 doesn't show anime anymore, at least i haven't seen it, so only late toonami or adult swim will show it. adult swim might show it like once every 6 months or sp cause roots only has 26 episodes, same as bebop and trigun.... this may not make sense....
