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.

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.
-
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.

Rooster Fighter to debut at New York Comic Con
Toonamiguy321 replied to Jman's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
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.
-
Because we chugged through 500 episodes of Shippuden over the course of 10.5 years. We have EARNED a block that doesn’t have Naruto on it. It’s a principle thing. Not having anything else to put there is the point for cutting the slot entirely. It’s an extra slot that was just supposed to be for the Ninja Kamui sub run and they refuse to give it up for whatever reason. Put Futurama there are whatever, if it’s not part of Toonami anymore it doesn’t really matter.
-
Well, they issued a revision, unfortunately Naruto is sticking around. Looks like someone set the font size too big. Dont know why we can’t just shake this slot already.
-
Eh, we will see. Remember that time Kai was on the schedule, then they decided it wasn’t? It lingered online for a few days. Choosing to run Naruto after Lazarus always felt like it was set up to bump Naruto off easily soon.
-
Expected continuation, and unexpected, but welcome, removal of the last of the Rewind mistake, as well as a long overdue dropping of that 7th timeslot. This is what the block should aspire to be at all times, almost pure premier content. No more looking backwards. Also, neat new schedule graphic. Has a bit more pop than the old one.
-
I don’t think any of that will be necessary. Bleach is in a weird place, we talk about its 4 separate cours, but technically, they are all one single season. If there wasn’t a different show about to end, they easily could have just left it on the schedule and had it carry on with no announcement. So they can bring in BE S3 as a “new” show. They don’t have to treat Bleach the same way, so it’s not like having new shows between 2 weeks. They are already fighting uphill right now, no need to complicate things more with further pointless marathon delays. Especially since we are closing in on the excessive year end ones.
-
At this point, it’s been off so long they would feel obligated to run S1 again just to get people back on board.
-
Looks like a blank schedule for 8/23. Blue Exorcist ends its season the week prior, so hopefully it’s just S3 tagging in. We also have Bleach ending its first cour that night. Not sure if AS will treat each cour as an announcement if they air back to back.

King of the Hill revival series headed to Hulu this summer
Toonamiguy321 replied to Jman's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
I can see why they hid the Kahn recast till the last second, just abysmal. It sounds like a white person trying really hard to not be racist https://x.com/kingofthehill/status/1952036738991526226 -
In a welcome surprise, the block received a stealth drop of fresh packaging tonight. We had been with the previous set since March 2022. A huge improvement IMO. The previous set caused any footage used to have a terrible, grainy bitrate. New packaging is crystal clear. Im eager to see what the new schedule graphics look like, but barring a marathon it’s probably gonna be awhile before we see one.

I was waiting till the final episode, but the absence of the president in season 8 has not gone unnoticed, and this would be the explanation for why. I like the president, I think he has some of the better episodes associated with him, but can he carry an entire show by himself? Eh. Most of the fun with him is him bouncing secret president stuff off Rick’s sci fi nonsense. And if Rick appears much, it’s just gonna feel more like Rick and Andre.
