One Piece Episode 739 Discussion
Mr. Idea Box replied to CorbeauKarasu's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
Isn't this our first time seeing Kaido in the anime? Says a lot when his first mainstream awareness came out at a much different time than Toonami is allowed to show.- 35 replies

Agreed on both charges, but if Futurama is only going to air Saturdays from 4 to 6 AM on the entire Adult Swim lineup, you might as well give them a fifth slot for the week.

Yeah, I suspected as such.

Well, this is a welcome surprise. First, Blue Exorcist gets its third season on Toonami, adding to the welcome wagon with open arms. Next, Naruto Classic may be off the Toonami brand, acting more as a lead-out alongside Superman. Whether this will be replaced or not, we shall see. Finally, if Naruto is off the block, this means Toonami loses a slot, which allows for the budget to be allocated into finding better shows on the top. This is huge news for those who stuck around the early months of 2025. However, there are two things I should say: One, there seems to be a vacant spot somewhere in September, even if BES3 airs back-to-back a few times this Fall. Two, and most crucially, part of me is waiting for the other shoe to drop and reveal something less tolerable. Just don't cry about the future if I happen to be correct, and I will shed a tear of joy if I'm wrong.

I'd say the same thing about the HD remaster of IGPX. Like, if it's just a placeholder for DBZ Kai reruns, why even remaster the show? But I can understand where you're coming from about Mashle.

Let's be real. They probably would treat it as an announcement, and the fans would eat it up.

Well, according to an interview with Seth Green to promote the Robot Chicken special, Discovery Communications is DeMarco's boss. But, since he was promoted to become WB's new head of action cartoons, Warner Bros. may still have him on their record. It depends on where the turn buckles. But in all seriousness, while I do understand the split, I do NOT understand why they merged in the first place. Not to mention where AT&T lies in all of this.

If anything necessitates a new package of bumpers, it's the steady stream of programming since May. Seriously, we've got Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War, Blue Exorcist: Kyoto Saga, Dragon Ball Daima, and now Dan Da Dan. Whether or not you like these shows, you can't deny that two-hour stretch of anime deserves a new coat of paint to go with it. Heck, aside from MAWS Season 3, One Piece, and a marathon or two, the Nov/Dec lineup is a near-total mystery as far as I know.

Trunks Thread 19.1: A New New Frontier
Mr. Idea Box replied to PokeNirvash's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
I wouldn't put this all on the Netflix audience. While I do see Dan Da Dan as a relative success in its first few weeks, it being placed after Daima would be another factor in its inevitable decline. However, if by some miracle, that show keeps a steady rating for the block, then you can hear me blowing a party horn all the way in Antarctica. -

Looks good! -
Look on the bright side. Between Daima, Dandadan, Bleach, Blue Exorcist, and One Piece, this is the earliest Subbed Lazarus would be able to air. Heck, even if you move the schedule around, it wouldn't air until 1:30 AM at least. But I will agree that I'd rather see something else occupy that slot, like Sailor Moon or IGPX.
