posted on by Rafael Antonio Pineda
Philippine television channel HERO TV announced on Thursday that it will not show the fourth episode of the Code Geass: Akito the Exiled OAV on Sunday. The channel will replace the OAV with the Hetalia Axis Powers: Paint it, White! film, which will air in the same 12:00 a.m., 12:00 p.m., and 8:00 p.m. time slots. HERO TV did not specify a reason for the replacement.
HERO TV announced in August that it would show the third and fourth episodes the Code Geass: Akito the Exiled OAV. HERO TV premiered the third episode on August 16.
The Code Geass: Akito the Exiled OAVs are a spinoff of the original Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion TV anime series. Set in between the two seasons of the original series during the Britannian invasion of Europe, the OAV series centers around Akito Hyuga, a member of the "W-0" unit, a suicide outfit of exiled Japanese (Elevens) sent to the battlefield to perform dangerous missions against Britannia, with only a 5% survival rate.
HERO TV previously premiered the Hetalia Axis Powers: Paint it, White! film in November 2013.
