Anime aired from around 11 p.m. until the wee hours of the morning, occasionally indicated by the odd-looking "22:00-27:00" notation. They are almost universally watched by older teens and young adults.
This is common in Japan for several reasons, even if it seems like a weird time to broadcast a show that's trying to make money.

.hack//Roots on Cartoon Network used to fit this bill, airing pretty close to midnight — though only on one day of the week (Friday), and it eventually got, of course, Screwed by the Network in the middle of the latter half of the anime. It was moved to 4:30 AM EST without any warning or advertisement. It would eventually finish airing in its entirety, but the final few episodes were deliberately put on hiatus for a few weeks to coincide with the release of the first .hack//G.U. game due to spoilers involved in the plot.
This actually happened to quite a few Anime that (supposedly) tanked in ratings.note Then again, they have also been known to do this even to shows that get good ratings. YuYu Hakusho, Zoids: Guardian Force, IGPX: Immortal Grand Prix, and .hack//Legend of the Twilight all got similar treatment.

Serial Experiments Lain aired at 1:15 AM, which in 1999 was one of the earliest attempts at broadcasting anime in this timeslot. Coincidentally, much of this anime takes place at night or in otherwise surreal circumstances, so the decision to air it at night may have been to enhance the viewing experience. That and the fact that it Starts with a Suicide.

Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha originally showed somewhere around this time, which, considering the otherwise mostly tame content of the show, is the main clue it wasn't originally marketed for little girls.

Persona 4: The Golden Animation got amazingly dead time slots after 1:30 AM on both channels it aired on, due to being an expansion on the original Persona 4: The Animation, that only fans of the original show or the games would understand and want to see.

Sands of Destruction was originally created to promote the game, but was aired at midnight and 1 AM, casting doubts on how much "promotion" it actually accomplished. The game was only rated B (12+) by CERO, and the show itself is incredibly tame, no more violent than your average afternoon Shounen, with no foul language or sexual content. There is the little matter that the show's "heroine" claims to be out to destroy the world, but half the time they don't even mention that fact...

Macross Frontier was aired at 1:25 AM (rendered on Japanese TV as as 25:25) in spite of having a ridiculous amount of mainstream promotion. This is just one small part of the Noachian deluge of "25" references the series made to commemorate the 25th anniversary of Macross.

An in-universe example occurs in Bakuman。. The anime adaptation of the Shonen Jump's Otters 11 is aired at midnight due to the nature of its content. Its brand of serious humor seems to cater more toward an older Periphery Demographic than to Jump's younger audience.

Lucky Star discusses this trope, as Konata often laments the fact that shows airing in this slot on normal channels often don't air at all when sports broadcasts run long, in addition to shows airing earlier being bumped into it temporarily. The anime itself is also an example, being a very otaku-centric show that first aired late at night.

Code Geass' first season aired at 25:25 (1:25 AM), which apparently allowed them to get away with bloody violence, swearing, a girl masturbating with a table corner, and the massacre of a stadium full of people. The fact that the second season aired at 5 PM on Sunday, a timeslot typically reserved for news programming, required them to drastically alter the plot.

An early version of Otaku O' Clock relates to different reasons in the years before anime was mainstream in the US. During its initial 1985-1986 runs, Robotech was shown mostly during the early hours of the morning such as 6:30 or 7:00 am, along with many other syndicated import shows. This was believed to be due to the tendency for parents to still be asleep and unaware of the mature content of what was supposed to be "just a cartoon". It should be noted that Robotech was originally broadcast on NBC affiliates before their Saturday-Morning Cartoon lineup, which at the time usually began around 8:00 am. At that time, NBC broadcast an annual primetime preview special giving glimpses into the season's soon-to-start Saturday Morning Cartoon lineup, particularly highlighting new cartoons. Robotech was not mentioned in the fall 1985 special.

During the years when being a Doctor Who fan meant you were an anorak of colossal proportions, the Big Finish Doctor Who audio dramas were played on Radio 4 at painful hours of the night (and in the years before iPlayer and Listen Again made this less important) - especially cruel seeing as they were still, essentially, children's programmes. As the revival series started and the show's profile improved, the BBC gave it more sympathetic time slots - in particular, broadcasting the first season of the Fourth Doctor Adventures in the traditional Fourth Doctor-era time slot of 5:15PM on Saturday.
Across the pond in the Pacific Northwest, if you wanted to watch Doctor Who, you had to catch it on KVOS out of Bellingham, Washington—the only commercial television station to air the show for most of the '80s. For decades, KVOS ran the the omnibus versions of the '63-'89 show on Saturday night starting at around eleven-to-midnight. That's not too late when you're watching a four part Fifth Doctor story, but heaven help you if that week it's a seven part Pertwee serial - or god forbid, Troughton's 10 part "The War Games".

The slot started in July 2000 and initially aired on Fridays at around 1 AMnote Actual time could vary widely between weeks according to the length of previous programming.. For unknown reasons, the very first series to be broadcast, without proper advertising, was the third season of BeastWars (the first and the second one had aired at lunchtime), with 3 or 4 episodes each Friday.After that, Italia 1 aired Wedding Peach, which had been bought years earlier after the great success from Sailor Moon, but despite being announced, it didn't find its place on the schedule and finally aired on the night slot between August and September 2000, again on Fridays at 6 episodes each time, to fulfil the contract obligations as rights were going to expire. Fans who stayed awake or recorded the show on VHS were upset to still find, even in a late-night airing, a heavily censored and Bowdlerised dub. In fact, the series had been edited originally with an afternoon time slot in mind, and received the same treatment of most Mediaset acquisitions at the time.

Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba had its marketing strategist be very adamant in airing the animated adaptation late at night, in order to preserve the levels of violence present in the original manga, for it had become increasingly common for Shonen Jump animated shows to mildly, or severely, tone down violent and other suggestive content over the years; this decision proved to be one of the many reasons the Demon Slayer anime became a gigantic success.

Little Witch Academia (2017) aired at 12:00 AM time slots. Many people questioned why due to its kid-friendly content until the second cour from Episode 15 onwards which included more swearing, Heroic BSoD and a living nuke trying to destroy the world. The reason why it was aired at 12:00 AM was that it had no other timeslot to air.

When Hello! Sandybell was being rebroadcast on Italia 1 in 2018, they put it on their "Orario Notturno!" (Nocturnal Hours) timeslot (3:00-4:00 AM). This is unlike their 2009 rebroadcast of Hello! Sandybell that was shown at 7:45 AM.

Likewise, Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers also got hit with this, partially because it was in syndication, partially because it was not backed by a toy company (which was a rarity of the era), and partially for the same reason as Robotech - the tone was far closer to Gargoyles than Bravestarr. It was not uncommon for it to air at 4 or 5 am (which was the start of the broadcast day for stations at the time).
