Looks like it got 1.04 M at 10.00 pm and 628k at 2:30. http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-top-150-wednesday-cable-originals-network-finals-3-15-2017.html

Wow, Unicorn must not be performing to expectations to get bumped down like that. I hope they still pick up IBO2. If it continues to slide we may even see it swap with Naruto. I hope this is more than just a slight reprieve for HXH. It's a great show and deserves a great timeslot. I just have a feeling that the next new show could push it back again.

One reason could be money. I think Jojo was expensive. The other reason is that they have something ready to go for April for that timeslot so there's no sense in moving it now. I don't think we are going into Stardust Crusadors right now. I think it's going to be something somewhat new and popular like Mob, possibly Titan.

And those numbers for Jojo and Gundam .....672 and 579

Not sure Toonami could snag Cory in the House, is that owned by Disney? After they took Star Wars, I don't think they'll play ball. It's a shame because it really speaks to the current political landscape in a way Gundam never could.

Oldsmar,? That's 30 minutes from me, I'll go see what's up!

I hope that doesn't happen. That one will probably be given more leeway than One Piece did because it is a finite series with an ending point at least. They would prefer to finish out a show whenever possible. I'm hoping it actually lifts the 2AM hour up a little and gives Shippuden and Ghost a little boost.

Jack did so amazing that it shut off their equipment

That's how I found out about S7 and E7 too when that happened. They used to just do something like call it "NEW ANIME" until it was announced.

Man, I'm glad they said something about it last week. Can you imagine the uproar if we casually saw that One Piece was gone and Tokyo Ghoul is replacing it on a schedule grid. His twitter feed would be on fire right now at 3 in the morning.

My Predictions I think after Jojo, if no Stardust, then we get Mob. After that finishes, we'll get Startdust It's a safe assumption that IBO season 2 will probably replace Unicorn. This may move up to 1:00 AM, shifting Tokyo Ghoul down to 1:30. After Ghoul finishes, I think we'll get Lupin at 1 or 1:30. I'm going to go and also predict that after Jack finishes up, Attack on Titan season 2 will take over that slot. Another wildcard is whether or not Super is going to take breaks. The original press release said that "Season 1" of Super (26 episodes, which doesn't even get us past the movie arcs) was going to air. I don't know if they would do this or not. Doesn't seem too likely, but it may be a way to get more mileage out of the show, especially while DBZ KAI is still airing. I'll bet that they decided to part ways with One Piece sometime last year and HXH was really the true replacement in the long running Shonen department. They never were going to stick something brand new at 2:00 AM. They need sort of a steady 2:00 AM hour so they build up an audience for HXH throughout last year and then slide it in at 2:00 AM with Naruto hoping that it's established audience base goes along with it. It'll probably stay there for the duration of it's run now. Not too big a deal personally. I watch Toonami kind of weird. I watch Jack, the DB shows, Naruto, One Piece and Ghost in the Shell close to live. Then the next day, me and my wife watch HXH, Jojo, and Unicorn together in that order. So even though its at 2:00 AM, HXH always gets watched first in my house before the other 2 : ) I'm not 100% on Lupin, but I would like to see it myself.

It's on my Cable Guide and scheduled recordings as well now so there's another source, but things could change in a week

Jojo probably cost more and is almost done with part 2, no sense to move it now. Plus Tokyo Ghoul isn't being marked with a "New" on zap2zits grid. Has it aired on Funimation channel before and this not a real premere?

http://tvlistings.zap2it.com/tvlistings/ZCGrid.do?fromTimeInMillis=1490508000000 unfortunately, HXH is moving to 2am Tokyo Ghoul is getting 01:00 and Unicorn is getting 01:30

Maybe, maybe not. It's pretty possible they aren't quite sure. This isn't a good problem to have. They have a new show that needs a decent timeslot, which means something is moving down. Depending on what's coming next, they may not want to push down Jojo or Gundam, but do they really want to put HXH at 2am? As the next resident long runner, I can see the logic with putting it with Shippuden. But it's a decently performing dub premere that is about to get really good and deserves a wide audience. It's like deciding which of your children goes without dinner!

They really need more dub premieres. So much of the block is widely available dubbed, TG even has the first season dubbed in Hulu. That means they also exists on pirate sites. The fact that DBZKFC is going to be all out dubbed by the end year is mind boggling. Toonami has to have exclusive things.

Especially in 2007 they were finally starting to rotate newer things onto weeknights that weren't even done airing on Saturdays like Eureka Seven, Bleach and Blood +. For the longest time in 2005/2006 they were doing endless reruns of Inuyasha, FMA, and GiTs. Those were always the standbys .Although I'd rather have that what we get now. I used to even stay up for Gigantor, Astro Boy, and Voltron at 5:30 AM!

Haha .. I meant to say we mourn 1/31/07 every year 8). That's what I get for tying and walking at the same time. Never try it

That's why we mourn on 1/31/07 every year.

And we all bounced back! Anime on AS has come a long way since those dark times. We were lucky to get 2 premieres a year (one of them being Bleach). We are in much better shape. I almost feel like if Toonami went to AS in 08 instead of being straight up cancelled everyone would have been much better off!

Yeah, I remember that! That was back in the days when we would get a lot of Bleach and MAYBE one other new show. Had Toonami not returned, Bleach probably would have closed the book on anime for Adult Swim.

Yeah not a lot of people know that they were never supposed to be going at the same time. McFarlane got stretched way to thin. I don't even think he writes for either show anymore.

I wish they had a better deal with those two. I wish they could get a bulk of episodes for cheaper and play them to catch up to newer stuff. I doubt they could afford that many episodes a year! I remember when they used to burn through six months worth (at 1 a week) of Inuyasha in a month!

They used to run a yearly "Have it You way" promo where the winner got to program Adult Swim forthe night

Yeah, I always thought Jack would be our best shot to return one action to weeknights. They own it and it doesn't cost them anything extra to air. FLCL might be in a similar situation. We'll see how it does. There's little risk for them to try this, so hopefully it does well and it can grow a little from there.
