It appears that the rights to Michiko & Hatchin might be expiring soon! Some commenters on Twitter have mentioned that they can see where episodes expire either 12/7 or 12/8, and if all that is the case, then my theory is it was acquired at the same time as either Cowboy Bebop HD or one of the movies, probably not Hellsing Ultimate IX or X since those started tonight 2 years ago, but perhaps Broly? In fact, I figure Broly, Bebop HD, the 2nd run of Deadman Wonderland, and Michiko & Hatchin might have all been acquired together; just not AIRED at the same time. There wasn't a good timeslot for Michiko until InuYasha: The Final Act ended, well that's my theory, anyway.

At least this week those "delusions" are delusions of grandeur, as everything improved markedly! Yes, both shows won their timeslots among cable originals in Adults 18-49, plus JoJo WON THE NIGHT in Adults 18-34 and Males 12-34! 12/3/2016 JoJo's Bizzare Adv. Adults 18-34 Rating - 0.55 Estimated 18-34 - 374,000 Adults 18-49 Rating - 0.48 Estimated 18-49 - 610,000 Total Viewers - 1,062,000 12/3/2016 Gundam IBO Adults 18-34 Rating - 0.50 Estimated 18-34 - 340,000 Adults 18-49 Rating - 0.42 Estimated 18-49 - 533,000 Total Viewers - 950,000 That's better than JoJo has done since 10/22, its 3rd best ratings yet! And better than Gundam has done since 10/15! Hopefully things get even better next week for Gundam IBO's Season 1 Finale; I would like to see it inch above a million just once more!

Welp, mistook this for the ratings thread somehow, but I guess I'll say that I believe Gundam Unicorn will do better in the ratings than Gundam IBO. It's just a better, more Gundam show! IBO is like "steampunk Gundam", if that makes a lick of sense! Not so for Unicorn, as beam weapons return!

I think the best possible scenario would be for Disney to get Super, but only for a 2-year deal a la Naruto Shippuden, and for the deal to not affect Kai on Toonami! Then we could finish Kai over the next 1.5 years with the dub-premiere Buu saga, and later (like in 2019) have Super! Alternatively, maybe CN could air Super first, then throw it to Toonami once Toonami is done with the Buu saga? Just as long as freaking NickToons doesn't get it, we're good. Also relevant:

Well, this is it: the 10th and final playing on the Stream this weekend! I've managed to catch parts of 9 out of 10 of them, sacrificing tonight's 9:45-ish playing for the Walking/Talking Dead! It's a great movie, but at this point I would be perfectly content with Toonami no longer having anything to do with it after tonight. It's had a good run!

Finally, Children Who Chase Lost Voices!! Attention, stupid people! That thing was NOT a bear! It's a good thing her substitute teacher gets it!!

One Piece on the stream now!! Gecko Moria, ya better watch out, cuz Luffy's COMIN' FOR YA!!!

Shippuden on the stream now! Witness Jiraiya's final frantic moments now!

Hunter × Hunter recap episode on the stream now! Don't flip out!!

Gundam IBO is on now! Not much action, but some very fishy plot development, as Biscuit contemplates leaving Tekkadan!

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure just ended... Geez, how tall WAS that house!?

It begins anew! DBZ Kai is on the stream right now! Vegeta had his hands full even with a Cell Jr.!

The theme tonight is guys with mustaches getting their asses kicked!

But the one character who pisses you off hasn't shown up yet!

Let's see how far into Children Who Chase Lost Voices (on the stream) I can get at the same time before I crash!

First appearance of Terrible Tornado!

I'm back this week!

Damn, Robin just lost her shadow!!

Is that the end of Moria? Probably not!

Ah, Robin's arms!!

Looks like we're inching towards the final showdown between Oars/Moria and Luffy!

Ok, at this point Oda was just pulling stuff out of his ass!

Almost time!

"I'll make your death a reality..." NEXT TIME ON...
