KTEH also has a long history of close ties to the anime fandom. From the early 1990s up until 2003, Sunday night viewers were treated to a selection of anime found nowhere else on United States TV at the time. KTEH was notable as the network which saw the broadcast premiere of "Neon Genesis Evangelion" (subtitled) in America, as well as (dubbed) "Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-Ohki" and "Tenchi Universe" TV series. These shows were later shown on Cartoon Network's "Toonami" programming block. Other anime that have aired on KTEH include, but were not limited to, "Bubblegum Crisis", "Key the Metal Idol", subtitled versions of "Dirty Pair Flash", "All Purpose Cultural Cat Girl Nuku Nuku", "Urusei Yatsura", "Sakura Wars" and "Corrector Yui", and dubbed versions of "Serial Experiments Lain", "City Hunter", "Please Save My Earth", "Ranma ½", "Sailor Moon", "Full Metal Panic!", "Magic Knight Rayearth", "Martian Successor Nadesico", "Betterman", "Robotech", "Mobile Suit Gundam", "Cardcaptor Sakura", "Astro Boy", "Gatchaman", and "Samurai Pizza Cats".
