Channel 497 On now

The anime channel

The anime series their rights holders post free on YouTube, on a schedule: each series' episodes in their own order, a block of each a day, the day from 06:00 to 06:00 your time. It plays in YouTube's player, with YouTube's ads, on a press.

Battle for Elemental Power! | Bakugan Full Episodes | Anime 15:59–16:42 New York time · Anime · English

Rights holder: 爆丸バトルプラネットテレビ東京アニメ公式 (a television series, by its Wikidata record). Its studio is not named in the records the site reads. Posted by Bakugan Official Channel on YouTube.

The guide

This press plays the episode on the air when you press (or, where that one does not play here, the next that does), from its beginning, then the episodes after it on the schedule that play here, one after another, in YouTube's player: at most 10 in all, and then it stops. Joining an episode from its beginning and YouTube's ads put the picture behind the schedule's times; press again to come back to what is on. Captions, where YouTube has them, are in English, and shown from the start when any episode the press plays is in another language.

It plays in YouTube's player, loaded from youtube-nocookie.com only when you press. From then on YouTube's player runs on this page: it shows YouTube's ads, YouTube receives your address and this page's, and its player may keep its own cookies and storage on your device. Pressing means you agree to be bound by YouTube's Terms of Service and accept this site's privacy notice, which says what this site keeps; Google's Privacy Policy covers what YouTube collects.

The schedule

Times in New York time (UTC−05:00), the next six hours. Every episode is its rights holder's, posted free on its own YouTube channel; each title opens its own page.

How this channel is programmed

Each anime series is a strand. A day's 24 hours are shared equally among the series (one whose episodes are fewer than its share airs whole), and each series airs one block of its episodes a day, in its own order, as many as their own lengths fit its share. The blocks take turns in a fixed order of the series that moves on by one each day, so each comes round to every hour. The end of the day is filled with each series' next episodes; nothing crosses 06:00, and no episode airs twice in a day.

A date's programme is the same everywhere: the same episodes, in the same order, from 06:00 in every time zone. A day the clocks change is shorter or longer, so somewhere its last episodes do not fit; the episodes after 04:00 in a day of 24 hours therefore come again at the start of their series' next block, and each series goes on the next day from the first of its episodes it has not yet aired everywhere, so none is passed over.

An episode is here only from a rights holder whose own Wikidata record says anime, and not one YouTube plays only on its own site. Each date is planned once and kept for the day (one of the site's servers plans the channel a day ahead and gives each day's plan to the other), from the episodes the site had read by then that were posted before that date's first 06:00 anywhere; what comes later joins a later day. Every airing is checked again each time this page is asked for: one that no longer plays for this profile in this place keeps its slot and says why.

On the channel today

Every piece plays where its own catalogue plays it, and is credited there: series and films their rights holders post on YouTube in YouTube's player; live channels from the iptv-org database on their own pages; films from their archives; podcasts from their publishers' feeds; stations from Radio Browser. Nothing here is copied. A piece is here only where its own source says it is anime: a rights holder’s Wikidata record, a channel’s own name, an archive’s subjects, Apple’s category or a station’s own tags; never a title alone, and never because it is animated. Each keeps its own catalogue’s profiles, and what is in Japanese says so.
