City Hunter premieres this 6 June 2012, Wednesday, at 10pm WIB (UTC+07) on Animax Asia and airs weekdays (nights) thereafter. It replaces Tower of Druaga.

City Hunter is a real-world action-comedy series that deals with the adventures of Ryo Saeba and his partner Kaori Makimura. Together they make up the small but renowned City Hunter company. Ryo is a “Sweeper”, a hired gun who actively seeks out the sources of his client's troubles and deals with them. When Ryo's not working on a case, he's working on getting the ladies, and Kaori must keep him in check with her trusty hammer.
