LONDON, July 13: The new global Internet TV platform
Babelgum has reached an agreement to air programming from the new U.K.-based
anime channel GONG.

Babelgum users will now be able to access anime titles from
GONG, encompassing genres such as sci-fi, action comedy and adventure. Popular
anime series and movies such as Cosmo Warrior, Gun Frontier and Ikki Tousen will be available on Babelgum.

Launched in December 2006, GONG is the first international
on-demand and online anime channel available in Europe and North America. GONG
hopes to broaden its reach to a larger audience via Babelgum, which is
available to a potential audience of 300 million-plus broadband users

“GONG has precisely the type of content that Babelgum aims
to deliver,” said Valerio Zingarelli, the chief executive of Babelgum. “At
Babelgum, we want to ensure niche audiences are able to access their favorite
content readily, easily and at no cost. Our customers will now have the
opportunity to enjoy some of this modern animation first and the addition of
this genre to Babelgum adds more diverse content to our growing portfolio.”
