Mr. Idea Box

This is an early warning. Rumor has it that Sailor Moon, as well as Naruto, might be leaving the block on May 31st, one year after Toonami Rewind's launch. If that is true, I would start preparing my goodbyes early if I were in your shoes. But that's only if this is the case.

Just a small heads up. If the sources are correct, it appears Naruto will be off the block in June. This would be a good time to start preparing your goodbyes.

I was kinda sure May 31st would be the last day of Naruto and Sailor Moon. If anything, I'm just glad they didn't skip the same arc they did last time the kitsune ninja aired this recently. Although I will definitely miss seeing the latter on television. As for what can fill their slots? I think I'll go with the safe prediction that one of them is going to be subbed Lazarus. The other slot is a mystery, unless they're blowing their entire One Piece load this early. Which I hope isn't the case.

It's one thing when Family Guy jabs at Robot Chicken or other shows in its demographic, but seeing The Simpsons do the same thing? Now that's just mean. Still, it's only a 10-second joke. Compared to other potshots at contemporaries, this is small.

So, when could we see the June schedule reveal? Odds are it's announced next week.

Man, Dynamite Entertainment is shaping up to be the best source of cartoon comics, aren't they?

Well, guess I don't have to make that thread myself. With that said, this is clearly where most of the acquisition budget went. And I don't even blame them for that.

If you guys want, I can make a thread for it. It was in my 2025 Predictions thread that it was tossed into FWIW.

Well, I can think of stranger ways to kick off a discussion thread.

While I would be happy to see this anime on Toonami, the main thing holding Twisted Wonderland back is its reliance on existing Disney characters. As such, if this show were to see a cable debut, it would be to prop up a Jetix revival instead. But I do understand your point of view, and support your cause either way.

Well, I can say I never expected something from Disney Jail to pop up here. But if any of those shows were to make the jump, it was going to be Bleach. That said, aside from Undead Unluck, which is one of Shonen Jump's few modern hits, what else from the Hulu originals could air on cable now that the floodgates have been opened? As for the Crunchyroll hopium, I'd like to say there's still a little left in the tank. Because if they're striking deals with Steamboat Willie himself, then Sony might come to an agreement for the existing material. Furthermore, Two Piece has prevailed for another week, possibly for the rest of the month. Now, I have no idea how long this gravy train will last, but I'm keeping things positive this time. However, given the chain of events laid out, I'm starting to make room for the possibility of a two-hour block again. I hope they don't do that, but I should keep that expectation tempered. Still, that shouldn't disclose the fact that getting TYBW is by no means nothing to sneeze at.

So it's gonna be a while before post-April news breaks. Fun...

I know we should expect more, but with greater competition nowadays, at least it's something.

This just makes American Dad's return to Fox more surprising, considering this was an option for them. But that would've continued the pipeline further. In all seriousness, I haven't seen practically anything of this revival, so making it come out so soon pretty much says they don't have hope for it.

Yeah, I can buy that a movie based on an anime with a rabbit girl, a guy with green hair, and a tall hairy figure worshipped to oblivion can premiere on that day.
