Cartoon Network has updated on some of its plans for the month of December, which for Toonami they’re calling Movie Month. Or, to be more specific, FUNimation Movie Month as they’re lining up features from them in a big way. The schedule is going to be fleshed out more in the future with exact times, but the dates for the features are now set with:

December 6th – Hellsing Ultimate 9 and Summer Wars

December 13th – Hellsing Ultimate 10 and Fullmetal Alchemist: The Sacred Star of Milos

December 20th – Dragonball Z: Broly – The Legendary Super Saiyan and Akira

December 27th – Evangelion 1.11 and Evangelion 2.22

What’s interesting about this is that just a couple of weeks ago, they noted that they did not have the broadcast rights for the final two Hellsing Ultimate episodes, which isn’t a surprise since the DVD/BD set just came out at the end of October. That got rectified though and now the first half of December will see those final two episodes brought to light.

The event month also includes the first two Evangelion movies of the reboot franchise, which means that we’ll be hearing fans griping even more about the fact that the third feature, picked up quite awhile ago by FUNimation, is still missing in action.
