Speaking exclusively to Anime UK News, Anime Central’s Brand Manager Mark Buchanan said: "We are thrilled to be launching this channel in the UK. It has been a long time coming, but we hope that our initial line-up will please existing fans and attract new devotees to the phenomenon that we all love and cherish."
