Yeah, I'm noticing a pattern: 2013 - Month of Movies I - Huge Success! 2014 - Month of Movies II - Huge Disappointment 2015 - Intruder II - Huge Success! 2016 - Intruder III - Slight Disappointment Good thing the movie was also a slight success; maybe we can go full-circle?

http://programminginsider.com/ratings/final-nationals/saturday-final-nationals-major-upsets-college-football-leads-abc-victory-foxs-rise/ 12:00 AM Dragon Ball Z Kai - 1,346,000 (83.50%) 12:30 AM Jojo's Bizarre Adventure 1,041,000 (77.34%) 1:00 AM Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron Blooded Orphans - 895,000 (85.98%) 1:30 AM Hunter × Hunter - 781,000 (87.26%) 2:00 AM Naruto: Shippuden - 740,000 (94.75%) 2:30 AM One Piece - 645,000 (87.16%) 3:00 AM One-Punch Man (encore) - 577,000 (89.46%) TOTAL VIEWERS AVERAGE - 860,714 12:00 AM Dragon Ball Z Kai - 763,000 (84.62%) 12:30 AM Jojo's Bizarre Adventure - 614,000 (80.47%) 1:00 AM Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron Blooded Orphans - 531,000 (86.48%) 1:30 AM Hunter × Hunter - 460,000 (86.63%) 2:00 AM Naruto: Shippuden - 424,000 (92.17%) 2:30 AM One Piece - 367,000 (86.56%) 3:00 AM One-Punch Man (encore) - 339,000 (92.37%) ADULTS 18-49 AVERAGE - 499,714 Well, I guess this one rounded up to 500K 18-49 on the skin of its teeth. DBZ Kai and everything from HxH to OP was down from last week; OPM up but only because it compared with the rated portion of Children Who Chase Lost Voices, which was technically an hour later in the night. JoJo and Gundam gained, but only by 1K each. Intruder III just hasn't been as successful for Toonami as Intruder II, but I guess that's OK since it's sort of a transition. College Football has been an ever-present thorn in Toonami's side, and huge matches in Boxing (11/5) and UFC (11/12) didn't help, either. Hopefully 11/19 will do better, since most of the big teams have wuss opponents and there's no UFC or boxing.

http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/daily-ratings/saturday-cable-ratings-nov-12-2016/ Well, One Piece didn't even make the Top 100, and H×H getting beat by YPFIGTH at 3:45 AM Friday night is just awful! http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/daily-ratings/sunday-cable-ratings-nov-13-2016/ One-Punch Man didn't make it, but some played-out garbage on NAN did!

Well, I can say definitively that despite overall numbers for both shows being up and 18-49's being flat, 18-34's were WAY down this week: 11/12/2016 JoJo's Bizzare Adv. Adults 18-34 Rating - 0.53 Estimated 18-34 - 360,000 Adults 18-49 Rating - 0.48 Estimated 18-49 - 610,000 Total Viewers - 1,041,000 11/12/2016 Gundam IBO Adults 18-34 Rating - 0.46 Estimated 18-34 - 313,000 Adults 18-49 Rating - 0.41 Estimated 18-49 - 521,000 Total Viewers - 895,000 Yeah, I'd say that's probably the influence of UFC alright. JoJo just isn't turning out to be this God-tier show everyone thought it would be, at least not so far. DBZ Kai at this point in the game had only averaged 1016K/540K, however, and no one in their right mind wouldn't call that "God-tier!" We'll find out how well everything else did later today, but looks like a pretty bad night overall for Toonami.

What's amusing is how many people are watching this week! I seldom see the weekend Toonami Stream go above 100 viewers, but this reached 471 at 1 AM last night, and right now, a little after 11 AM on a Tuesday, it's being watched by like 262!

So this has now become the Annoying Politics Debate thread?! Well maybe Trump will show up in DB Super and make this semi-relevant. That would be funny! He was actually in an episode of Beavis and Butt-Head from the 2011 revival, BTW

No doubt about it, veteran voice actor Tony Oliver nailed the part in both the wacky Tobi and the super-serious Madara! ...that IS Tony Oliver, right?? NOPE! It's someone I've never heard of named Neil Kaplan! http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=7293 Weird that I've never heard of him; after all, he WAS Yamamoto in Bleach, and has a ton of other roles too! http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/people.php?id=4823

"...Rosario X Vampire..." Desu? But no, who really has a clue what this series will be replaced with? It also depends on the length of [as] contract with Viz. It MIGHT be just a 6-month contract, in which case, it would need to be done by January 16th. By my math that would lead to it needing to complete January 14th. I'm thinking Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, and New Year's Eve would probably be pure marathons, but maybe not? If Children Who Chase Lost Voices gets a rerun, you could follow that with a mini-marathon of 2-4 episodes of One-Punch Man. We would get to #7 by December 17th, and #8 and #9 could follow after CWCLV on December 24th, then 10-12 finish the run (as those 3 episodes BELONG back-to-back-to-back at LEAST Once in an edition of Toonami expanded to 4:30 AM on 1/7/17. So who knows what will follow OPM and when? It could happen as early as 1/14/17, or as late as 2/11/17 assuming only one rerun is played a night and none are aired on weekends in which the normal block is pre-empted for marathons!

Following from what Michiko & Hatchin did last week, it's episodes 11-15 from now (Monday) to Wednesday at 6:30, followed by 16-20 from about 7:15 Wednesday night through Friday at 6:30! So follow along with the Tri-City Raid Trip Monday-Wednesday, then go toe-to-toe with Ragyo and the Covers on Wednesday night through Friday!

(Oh, there it is!) Funny how this isn't even a real obstacle!

Well, I guess that's it, or is there an OPM Discussion?

Well, that's TWO characters her ghosts can't affect! Is she GONE!?

Oh, I get it! That's Kumacy's shadow bearer, right??

Holy crap she's awake again!!

Interesting plan!

Franky's bridge!!!

The bigger they are, the harder they fall! What, a new face appears!?

Here we go!!!

Tobi is seriously cracking me up right now!!

Tobi is not what he seems, right?

TOBI!? What the hell!?!

This battle could be interesting! Kisame vs. Suigetsu??

Hahaha! Sasuke, you can't actually finish Itachi, you ignorant whelp! Ah, the rest of the Hebi!

What the hell!?
