The more things change, the more they stay the same... http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-top-150-saturday-cable-originals-network-finals-7-8-2017.html 7/8/2017 Dragon Ball Super (8 PM) - #12 (-3) Adults 18-34 Rating - 0.35 Estimated 18-34 - 238,000 ( 30.24% ) Adults 18-49 Rating - 0.28 Estimated 18-49 - 359,000 ( 45.62% ) Total Viewers - 787,000 7/8/2017 DBZ Kai: Final Chapters - #4 (-1) Adults 18-34 Rating - 0.49 Estimated 18-34 - 333,000 ( 35.50% ) Adults 18-49 Rating - 0.42 Estimated 18-49 - 538,000 ( 57.36% ) Total Viewers - 938,000 7/8/2017 Attack On Titan - #6 (-1) Adults 18-34 Rating - 0.41 Estimated 18-34 - 279,000 ( 35.09% ) Adults 18-49 Rating - 0.34 Estimated 18-49 - 436,000 ( 54.84% ) Total Viewers - 795,000 7/8/2017 Tokyo Ghoul - #11 (-4) Adults 18-34 Rating - 0.35 Estimated 18-34 - 238,000 ( 34.74% ) Adults 18-49 Rating - 0.29 Estimated 18-49 - 372,000 ( 54.31% ) Total Viewers - 685,000 7/8/2017 Lupin the 3rd - #17 (STEADY) Adults 18-34 Rating - 0.31 Estimated 18-34 - 211,000 ( 35.46% ) Adults 18-49 Rating - 0.24 Estimated 18-49 - 308,000 ( 51.76% ) Total Viewers - 595,000 Man, I miss the days when the show after DBZ Kai unequivocally kicked the NBA Summer League's ass. Dragon Ball Super at 8 PM got beat by Tokyo Ghoul Root A. And while Lupin might have hit an unimpressive new high in total viewers, since percentages of demographics were down compared to 2 weeks ago, it pretty much tied its Episode 1 series lows. Can JoJo save us?? Toonami is gonna have to acquire a humdinger of a show if it wants to steal that #1 spot from LIVE PD. Could Jotaro Joestar be the man of destiny, the one who can STAND up to this police state-fueled reality TV travesty? Because it's clear the German-laced Kaiju mess that is Attack on Titan isn't cutting it. I daresay Season 3 won't get 12:30 back next year. It will instead follow Gundam IBO S2 at 1 AM while some NEW BLOOD gets 12:30 (plus JoJo Part 3 won't be over yet by then). But then again, since by that time we'll probably have Boruto at midnight, all bets are off. In case you just noticed, I actually just predicted the lineup this time next year: Spring/Summer 2018: 11 PM FLCL 2/FLCL 3 11:30 Dragon Ball Super 12 AM Boruto: Naruto Next Generations 12:30 JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Part 3: Stardust Crusaders 1 AM Attack On Titan Season 3 1:30 Hunter x Hunter 2 AM ???? (I seriously have no clue what might replace Lupin. Probably not more Gundam while IBO is still at 1 AM) 2:30 Shippuden 3 AM ???? (Who knows what they'll rerun after GITS or if we even get 2nd Gig HD directly following season 1...) Wild Cards: Mobile Suit Gundam Thunderbolt (could take 12 AM instead), Mobile Suit Gundam: Twilight Axis (3-minute minisodes plus 8-minute finale; wouldn't need its own timeslot and finale can premiere on a holiday marathon day), Flip Flappers (C'mon, Toonami, pull that stick out of your ass and get something for the girls from Sentai already!)

Right. That's partially why this is what I've decided to do instead, going forward. The stream has advanced. It will be episodes 16-20 from now until Friday night at 8. Interestingly enough, this is the first time a weekly Super marathon has changed on Wednesday night.

In this thread, I will archive each weekly marathon stream for the year 2017, so that there will be a historical record of it. 1/2/17-1/6/17: Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans Episodes #11-#20 1/9/17-1/13/17: One-Punch Man Episodes 1-10 1/16/17-1/20/17: Hunter x Hunter Episodes 21-23 (they screwed up), 26-30 1/23/17-1/27/17: Naruto: Shippuden Episodes 131-140 1/30/17-2/3/17: KILL la KILL Episodes 16-24 2/6/17-2/10/17: One Piece (Episodes #s unknown) 2/13/17-2/17/17: Dragon Ball Super Episodes #1-#5 2/20/17-2/24/17: Moble Suit Gundam Unicorn Re:0096 Episodes #1-#5 2/27/17-3/3/17: Attack on Titan Episodes #01-#10 3/6/17-3/7/17: Samurai Jack briefly appeared before getting its own stream channel 3/7/17-3/10/17: Moble Suit Gundam Unicorn Re:0096 Episodes #1-#5 3/13/17-3/17/17: Sword Art Online II Episodes 1-10 3/20/17-3/24/17: DBZ Kai Final Chapters Episodes 99-103 3/27/17-3/31/17: Ghost In The Shell (2nd Gig) Episodes #26-#35 4/3/17-4/7/17: Cowboy Bebop Sessions #1-#5 4/10/17-4/14/17: Dimension W Files 01-10 4/17/17-4/21/17: JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Episodes 1-10 4/24/17-4/28/17: The Big O Acts 1-5 briefly Monday afternoon, then 14-18 Tuesday-Friday 5/1/17-5/5/17: Dragon Ball Super Episodes #6-#10 5/8/17-5/12/17: Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn Re:0096 Episodes #6-#15 5/15/17-5/19/17: Hunter x Hunter Episodes 31-35 5/22/17-5/26/17: JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Episodes 11-20 5/29/17-6/2/17: Tokyo Ghoul Episodes 1-5 6/5/17-6/9/17: Naruto Shippuden Episodes 141-150 6/12/17-6/16/17: DBZ Kai (Final Chapters) Episodes 99-108 6/19/17-6/23/17: Samurai Jack Season 5 Episodes 1-10 6/26/17-6/30/17: Attack on Titan (Season 2): Episodes #26-#30 7/3/17-7/7/17: Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex HD Episodes #11-#20 7/10/17-7/14/17: Dragon Ball Super: Episodes #11-#20 7/17/17-7/21/17: Cowboy Bebop HD Sessions #11-#20 7/24/17-7/28/17: Dragon Ball Super: Episodes #16-#20 7/31/17-8/4/17: Attack On Titan (Season 2): Episodes #31-#35 8/7/17-8/11/17: DBZ Kai (Final Chapters) Episodes 111-120 8/14/17-8/18/17: JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Episodes 11-20 8/21/17-8/25/17: Dragon Ball Super: Episodes #16-#25 8/28/17-9/2/17: Attack on Titan (Season 2): Episodes #31-#35 9/4/17-9/8/17: Hunter x Hunter: Episodes 31-35 (again... ) 9/11/17-9/15/17: Naruto Shippuden Episodes 161-165 9/18/17-9/22/17: Tokyo Ghoul Episodes 1-5 9/25/17-9/29/17: Lupin the 3rd Part 4 Episodes 1-5 10/2/17-10/6/17: Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn Re:0096 Episodes 1-5 10/9/17-10/13/17: Dragon Ball Super: Episodes #21-#25 10/16/17-10/20/17: Attack on Titan (Season 2): Episodes #26-#30 10/23/17-10/27/17: Ghost In The Shell (2nd Gig) Episodes #26-#30 (in Shit-D) 10/30/17-11/3/17: Tokyo Ghoul √Ā Episodes 3-7 (Overall 15-19) 11/6/17-11/10/17: Dragon Ball Super: Episodes #26-#30 11/13/17-11/17/17: JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders - Episodes 1-5 11/20/17-11/24/17: Hunter × Hunter Episodes #61-#65 11/27/17-12/1/17: Naruto Shippuden: Episodes #166-#170 12/4/17-12/8/17: Outlaw Star Episodes 1-5 12/11/17-12/15/17: Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans Episodes #26-#30 12/18/17-12/22/17: Lupin the 3rd Part 4 Episodes 11-15 12/25/17-12/29/17: Samurai Jack Season 5 Episodes 1-5 (XCII-XCVI) And in your stocking, here's the Samurai to close out 2017...

Dat Radiohead reference!!

This. It's mind-boggling to me how universally panned this show was across the major Toonami podcasts because I see it as a work of pure brilliance. The characters' actions certainly made sense when viewed against the larger backdrop of Gundam history as well as Unicorn when viewed as a stand-alone. And while at one point I likened the missing article as being somewhat of a "divine rule" passage, I now realize it wouldn't have that effect, but rather simply be the prioritized inclusion of a newfound minority (in this case, the Newtypes) in the inner workings of their own government. A seat at the table, as you said.

Spoilers from later this arc (it's from the movie), but still appropriate! [he's blue]

I think that's probably what happened as to why we never got a simulcast of Super, and it wasn't streaming until like October of last year. Both FUNimation and Toonami took one look at the crappy animation and were all like "hell nah!"

The version of Super we're watching on Toonami is actually quite decent if you ask me. I might give it about a B-. The animation that was first produced for this show was utterly awful (the infamous Episode 5) and I'd say it's about a D. But it DOES pale in comparison to the movies (A or A-) and that's a complete and utter shame. Granted, the Beerus fight arc (Battle of the Gods) DID change the setting so it would have been impossible, but I have yet to find a decent excuse for the Resurrection of F arc. Also missing the Maximum the Hormone "Frieza" BGM; the orchestral replacement just doesn't have the same oomph.

Reposting this just because I don't want to look at Sonic's big blue ass for 35 minutes... :poop:

I think it's funny when Naruto refers to himself and a group of his Shadow Clones using the pronoun "we"!

--what I felt like at the end of that episode!

Guess what's going on right now?

I think it's gonna stick around until at least when Boruto shows up, maybe longer than that. Hell, we STILL haven't gotten as far as Neon Alley did by like a YEAR. Let that sink in!

That's not why they air the music video during it! Also, this weirdness is a complete and total surprise! It was NOT played on Pre-Flight!

Lupin's popping back up right now on Toonami!!

Dat name drop--COUNT CAGLIOSTRO!!!

Until next time, we leave Gon hanging, but it's ON to Lupin the 3rd! http://68.media.tumblr.com/7250d7dc79fb3fa6c8e1e9fc54e504de/tumblr_osspdv4jla1rvb8cmo1_400.gif

For the next-to-last time:

I must admit, there is probably some realism in that avatar. Running as much as Sonic does probably makes your ass pretty strong! That being said, I also end up wondering if his :poop: is brown or blue!

Leorio's kinda like a wuss Vash the Stampede. I don't know why I never saw it before!

Ahhh, Leorio...

How the hell does THAT make a lick of sense!?

This is actually not that bad for what it is.

Well, I GUESS you could say that...but I still don't freaking get it. </3
