Nichigo (日5), a shortened name for the 5 p.m. time slot on Sundays, is Mainichi Broadcasting System (MBS) and its sister network Tokyo Broadcasting System (TBS)'s anime programming block. Nichigo was first launched in April 2008 to replace the Doroku (土6) anime programming block, which aired at 6 p.m. on Saturdays from 1992 to 2008.
Beginning in April 2017, Nichigo was combined with the 7 a.m. Saturday anime programming block into a new early Saturday morning segment named Anisata (short for Anime Saturday).
The programming block has been revived in April 2022, with Mobile Suit Gundam Suit: The Witch from Mercury as the first anime to air originally on the block in October 2022.
