My point is, he is talking about the decline as if he didn’t just contribute to said decline not even one month ago. The state of western animation is more than just the way it looks. Fixed has that animation flare we come to expect from Genndy. But then content wise it’s about dog schlong and just becomes another reason in the pile for why the west is falling miles behind on animation.

“Expert on dog boners and nutsacks feels the animation industry is declining” This would have been a good topic during Primal S2s run, not after dog testicle show. It likely would have went to proper theaters but gotten destroyed because competition for attention in theaters was fierce in 2010. Would have been squaring up with Harry Potter, Avatar, Inception, Iron Man 2, and quite a few other heavy hitters. I don’t think dog penis can compete with those. For a positive, it likely would not have been scrutinized as much. A movie that exists, is not good, and everyone just moves on. Genndy’s obsession with throbbing dog meat is only jokingly referenced now and then as his other projects release.

Now that’s a popcorn bucket I would feel bad about cutting a hole in the bottom of.

I think you are overthinking things a little. At normal pace, with zero interruptions, Daima, BE and Bleach all end in mid November. But we all know we won’t get that far without interruptions, so those 3 can be pushed into December and not see replacements until the yearly budget reset. BE will likely jump right into s4, but Bleach is likely going to take a hiatus until cour 4 airs. We have a lot of originals and obligations in 2026, so midnight is likely going straight to stall mode in the new year until one of the many AS projects is ready to air there. MAWS this year? Highly unlikely, we would have heard or seen some teaser material by now if that was the case. IIRC I believe the latest panel for Primal set it for an early 2026 release, so those RERUNS will take midnight early in the year because Genndy is still a stuck up, dog boner loving jackoff. Back to this year, our only openings of note are Dan Da Dan in October, and Lazarus whenever it ends I don’t know what episode it’s on. If they got a cushy deal with GKIDS, there is a chance it goes right into S2, but as I have said previously, I’d sooner see it replaced by Mashle S2, with DDD S2 coming in next year. Lazarus? It’s a rerun likely to be replaced by another rerun. Don’t care which one because who cares about reruns? The Naruto question is up in the air. It could be cut at any time they feel it needs cut, or they keep it till it expires. I’m pulling for it, and it’s slot, being cut.

They kinda were, prior to the prerelease exposure that showed how much dog boner and nutsack focus it had. They were trying to coast it on Genndy’s name and other projects. You liked Primal, you liked Samurai Jack, so you will love big furry dog testicle sacks as animated by Genndy.

And that’s exactly what’s happening. The creators want you to BELIEVE otherwise as a distraction from how much it sucks and the legitimate criticisms being sent their way.

We are starting to talk about an entire separate sect of people. I absolutely believe there are plenty of people telling them “yuck dog boners! You should be ashamed for making this!” What I don’t believe is there is a measurable amount of people sayings “yuck dog boners! You should die kys kys kys for making this!” A few? Probably. Every project, no matter how innocent, seems to attract the ire of a few crazies. But they are trying to gas it up like they get a stack of death threats in the mail daily which just is not happening over dog boners. Shonen with titties, PSG, etc, creators show how to handle it. When people bitch, they double down. Too much anime titties bouncing around you say? Boom, new character, half naked at all times, extra budget into the chest region whenever she is on screen. Because the people who have their cock in their hand will always drown out the whiny puritans. Just spitting the facts big dog. Western animators are VERY fragile. Consistently playing second fiddle to anime has done quite the number on them. You have the rare ones, such as Genndy himself, who actually has faith in his own talents and pays the competition and critics no mind, but most of them look at their own work, know it sucks, but have to aggressively defend it from critics who also know it sucks.

Established IP having a violent fujoshi fanbase? Sure, I’ll believe that. Dog boner movie that only notable feature is having washed up creator? Yea, you aren’t convincing me there is a wide range of people going to bat that hard for throbbing dog penis and testicle sacks.

Animators are professional victims who consider anything but blind admiration for their work as threats, so take this with a grain of salt, It’s also a good way to farm pity points when the project itself is doing poorly. It’s very hard to believe there is this aggressive of a reaction to a film with a low key release on streaming. Theater release? Maybe. I could see people being pissed over paying $20 +$30 for popcorn +tip to watch dog boners.

Never even considered any of Demarco’s public statements to be part of the problem. I agree, all that happened long after the bridge was already burned and that was just Demarco having a melty and lashing out. Demarco has an ego, especially when it comes to Toonami. Guarantee you he tried waving his dick around the CR office like having shows on Toonami matters in this day and age, and the CR guys decided to humble him long term. They whipped their much bigger dicks out and showed him who is boss when it comes to anime now. I don’t think it’s that they see the block as direct competition. But TOM and the Toonami brand are beloved by an entire generation of anime fans, and Crunchyroll just does not like that. They think their brand and whatever their mascots name is should be the first thing people think of for anime in the west. They just want Toonami to be gone so it can fade into memory.

Because Demarco is an idiot who ruined any potential future with Crunchyroll. Always remember that they gave some upstart block on an irrelevant channel MHA. It’s not that they won’t deal, it’s that they won’t deal with Toonami specifically.

I dunno man, that feels like when Letterman had Miku on. A weird thing that zero people in the target audience know about or understand and it ends up just being an awkward 5-10 minutes for everyone involved. Even if Tatum knows the series, it’s like yapping about anime to someone who has no idea what you are on about and can only politely nod until they are given an exit from the conversation.

Did everyone memoryhole that they already confirmed it will premier in April 2026?

I would be shocked if Dan Da Dan went straight into S2. The dub would barely even be 3 months old at that point. My money is on Mashle S2 replacing it.

That is certainly a choice. Not a smart choice, but a choice. Seems they are trying to lure more people to the theater with big names, but that’s not the type of people who go see anime movies. They already had him in the Yugioh dub.
