  9. Evidence for marathon: they did one every Labor Day Weekend since 2015. Evidence against marathon: no marathon on Memorial Day Weekend or 6th of July THIS year. ALSO, shirking recent trends, DirecTV ALREADY has the 8/31 schedule up, complete with episode titles!!

  15. Episode 8: Independence of the Principality of Zeon Last time you remember, all hell broke loose on the moon! Dr. Minovsky was killed by a cheap ripoff of his own creation, and the mysterious Lalah and Char had an encounter. One last time that you'll hear these songs... 3 AM tomorrow (8/25) ONLY TOONAMI!!!
  16. For some reason, Toonami has chosen to re-air the end of Season 3 at every Saturday night at 4 AM, so if you're up that late, watch and discuss!!

I work from home so this was no biggie for me, but if you went on vacation this weekend early, NO STONE FOR YOU!!
  19. Yeah, not everyone who isn't a NEET works on Sunday, or at least, they SHOULDN'T. If you can't get it done during the week, there's always Saturday. Unless you're in retail or service industries--then yep, you're at their mercy on a Sunday. Or maybe something in construction or observational science. But if you've got an office job and you're working on Sunday, you're doing it wrong. But I digress...DirecTV finally updated their on-screen guide, and here's what we can look forward to this Saturday night: Dragon Ball Super - A Commanding Presence! Advent of Top the Destroyer! Gen Lock - S1 E4 | Training Daze Dr. Stone - S1 E1 | Stone World Fire Force - S1 E5 | The Battle Begins Food Wars! - S1 E8 | A Concerto of Concept and Creation Black Clover - S2 E33 | The Victors Boruto: Naruto Next Generations - S1 E45 | Memories From the Day of Snow Naruto: Shippuden - S12 E22 | Secrets of the Reanimation Jutsu Mobile Suit Gundam the Origin: Advent of the Red Comet - S1 E8 | The Principality of Zeon Declares Its Independence Lupin the 3rd Part 5 - S8 E11 | Get Pablo's Collection My Hero Academia - S3 E16 | Shiketsu High Lurking
  20. Could a Netflix original go into syndication on Toonami and beat Bojack Horseman (so far the only Netflix original, animated or live-action, to be picked up for syndication by a cable network)? With this 3rd season, there's no question (plus it airs at 12:30 AM-ish, maybe a few minutes later, for an hour), but what about when it first started with Season 1 almost a year ago in September 2018? Are these numbers beatable? http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-top-150-wednesday-cable-originals-network-finals-9-26-2018.html P18-49: 0.22 F18-49: 0.12 M18-49: 0.32 P18-34: 0.26 F12-34: 0.12 M12-34: 0.36 P25-54: 0.22 P50+: 0.10 Total Viewers: 413K Granted, that was at 10:30 PM, in a timeslot that Toonami doesn't currently have (and of course on a Wednesday as opposed to a Saturday), but those numbers are either worse or only slightly better (except Male 12-34, which was actually quite a bit better) than what gen:LOCK and Fire Force did last week! The similarity cannot be ignored, since both of those shows are also available in their broadcast forms on different streaming services, and with some scenes edited for time and content on TV. Netflix is the last frontier for Toonami, and it would be great for something like Carole & Tuesday or Cannon Busters to get the Bojack Horseman treatment, courtesy of the Better Cartoon Show!
  21. I guess, but I'm really not sure how in the hell to just DVR the block? Besides, I'd rather have the capability to marathon certain shows later, imperfect as it is. For example, the 2017 episodes of JoJo and Gundam Unicorn that got screwed up by Sand Whale and Me. I watched those a whole bunch of times, and they're were still good. The videos haven't been AS damaging lately, but you would think Toonami would co-produce episodes of 18-20 minutes long for a new show just to spread it out, and so they have some space to which to add stuff like that. The Forge, at 5+ minutes long per episode, either needs something like that or Toonami needs a 10:55 start time.
