Animeism

Animeism (アニメイズム) is a late-night Japanese programming block established on April, 2012. It is devoted to anime and broadcast each Thursday night (Friday morning) on MBS, in a fashion similar to Fuji TV's Noitamina that also airs on Thursdays. Just like Noitamina when the block was created, it airs two series back to back. From April 2015 onwards, the block was moved to Friday nights to avoid direct competition with Noitamina and the Thursday night anime block on TBS. Also like Noitamina, it signed a deal with Amazon to stream exclusively on their Prime video service on June 29, 2017 starting with Rage of Bahamut: Virgin Soul and Altair: A Record of Battles.
