The next day, the channel broadcast a marathon of the first series of Captain Tsubasa. Although much of the channel's programming was previously part of the ETC schedule (as in the case of Sonic X, Doraemon, Inazuma Eleven, Shaman King or Full Metal Alchemist), during its first months, Senpai TV also presented anime series. never before broadcast on Chilean television, such as Fire Force, Fruits Basket (2019), Lupin III: Part 4 and Highschool of the Dead, in addition to broadcasting the film Akira for the first time in high definition, broadcasting in japanese and dubbed versions, on May 27 and 29 respectively.[3]
