I think HBO also aired some of the World Masterpiece anime and
Nick aired some anime based on Grimm's fairytales and some other
random anime.
I think HBO aired the Tom Sawyer series while Nick aired "Grimm's
Fairy Tale Classics". Both shows were originally produced by Nippon
Animation Co., Ltd.
IIRC, Nick also aired Maya the Bee and The Little Koala.
(Shows not all anime are otaku-fodder.)
Laters. =)

Now you got me thinking of Belle & Sebastian all over again! |

SciFi Channel was showing some features in the mid-'90s (and as a
recurring thing). I'm sure that's where I first watched Akira. I want to
say I was a sophomore in college, which would make it '94-95, but I'm
not certain of that. |

Basically most of the Streamline catalog (yes, including that dopey
"cockroach" thing), the main A-ko/Beautiful Dreamer marketing horses for
CPM (including a great "excerpt" preview for UY:BD to explain to
neophytes), "EYES of Mars" because it was public domain, and isolated
segments of "Robot Carnival" whenever they needed ten to twenty minutes
of filler at the end.
But then, SFC was a simpler, more innocent place, back then... :(
