Blatch

Maybe you could get more people to watch it you made them accept that we've basically fucked ourselves over when it comes to this whole "civilized society" thing.

Meh... who cares? The Arctic Circle will be completely ice-free by the end of the year. We're gonna have bigger problems to deal with than a failing cartoon block.

Since it was the first weekend of the new year, I can't say I'm expecting great numbers for the 11:30P Super. It'll probably get up to its predicted numbers once people become numb to the current political situation and start watching more TV as a coping mechanism.

I have no real desire to watch Idol Incidents, but in a year where the President of the United States is about to be a reality TV show star, trying to would make me feel uncomfortable. I'd be reminded every other minute of how too many people think there will actually be a nuclear war because this particular guy has the codes. The Simpsons: "Das Bus" Space Ghost Coast to Coast: "Needledrop" and "Urges" when it aired on [as] BAKUON!! #9 [if we're all gonna die, we should do it in style]

I actually watched the first episode of this show last week while it aired, though I didn't catch yesterday's episode. It was pretty decent. Stoopid Monkey seems to be better at creating wholly original material than the same tired parodies on Robot Chicken week after week. I've enjoyed the DC Comics specials that just go wild with the characters while actually having a plot, and SuperMansion seems to be an extension of that. The voice acting was pretty good, for one. I enjoyed Bryan Cranston's return to more humorous roles as Titanium Rex. Also, I guess that was supposed to be Keegan Michael Key as the angry drill sergeant? I can't help but be reminded of his role in the Bad Guys pilot as being similar to this.

There were some rather brutal TV schedules it went up against, including at least one with a primetime boxing match. It never really stood a chance. I can think of other situations where the ratings went that low. How about Venture Bros. in the 8:00P hour shortly after [as] got it in April 2014?

Ben quit this place? I guess that must have been caused by... an incident. And maybe I could hear about it.

Probably because new packaging, just like good, truthful journalism, costs money.

I'm glad that they're taking a more nuanced approach to Super and not slapping a TV-PGLV on most episodes.

I've already watched Battle of Gods, and I bought Resurrection 'F' a couple of days ago at Best Buy. So I'm good for this first season, but I'll watch it anyway, because I'm dumb have nothing better to do. [degeneration of society]

8:30 is former CN time. And it's airing right after Dragon Ball Super, which at least fits the theme.

Presumably. Though I guess there's nothing stopping them from airing reruns separate from Toonami as the new episodes premiere.

Permanent schedule proof in case it changes: Bad for Jman, fun for others.

I meant that by airing separately, it would not replace any other show. Regardless, the wording I used is pretty bad. >

I know I talked about having reservations about predicting the next Toonami show, but Attack on Titan S2 does seem like a good pick to succeed JoJo's on April 29th. And then they could jump into Stardust Crusaders after it's done, which helps out variety. I fully expect Samurai Jack to be its own thing, and premiere separate from the rest of the block.

Indeed it was, Poke. I also remember that episode having a Speed Racer parody... albeit a rather stereotypical one.

JoJo's marathon suddenly doesn't look so bad now. O0 They messed up Shelter's timeslot, but as you can see, it doesn't matter much. It probably got around 670K in total.

I heard they were making a second season of Bedtime Stories. I have no idea when it's going to drop, but it should be good.

Whoa, whoa, slow down there, buckaroo. Why in the shit are we already discussing a schedule change that isn't going to happen for nearly four months? I'm not answering this right now. Let's just enjoy the next few months of anime shows without any worrying. We'll cross that bridge when we get there.

It's pretty callous to say that you should have killed yourself when you had no idea of how shitty it would be. Unless, of course, it would have been after November 8th. As for me, I didn't do a whole lot of exciting stuff... but I did graduate from high school. And I got to watch a lot of good anime with all of you wonderful people. So those were both notable wins.

Welp. Mistakes were made, and I have easily accepted them. Hopefully, the full video will play during another edition of Toonami, or maybe on Pre-Flight.

So... hey guys. Happy New Year. From the home office in Plaistow, New Hampshire, I wish you guys and girls well. I just saw Shelter air on American cable TV, and while I'm happy for Toonami to have given it exposure, I did not like the TV cut of it at all. How ironic is it for this to be advertised as "Toonami's first subtitled work" and yet all the parts with subs are cut out? There wasn't a content rating, either, so I guess they must not have considered it as important as the High on Fire vid or Scavengers. And on top of all of that, the ending was surgically removed, basically robbing the short of the best chance it had at an emotional impact. If you liked the vid, I ask of you to either check out the YouTube upload ( ) or watch it on Crunchyroll, because those are the best ways to experience it. And I guess I'm happy Toonami played the video because it lead to my most wicked tweet ever, but... yeah. Good exposure, bad presentation. But at least they tried, as the good star-shaped meme says.

Well, for starters, I'd like to thank my friend Poke for capitalizing on this thread with some more 3-gatsu reviews. But, with less than an hour left in the year (on the east coast), it's time for me to break open the door and give you all what you've been waiting for. And now, if I may... Bakuon!!, Episode 8: "Winter Break!!" [see you on the other side]

BAKUON!! #8 Space Ghost Coast to Coast: "Flipmode"

So you guys are telling me that a lineup promo already aired on [as] without anyone else noticing? I would've figured someone on Twitter had pointed it out to CabooseJR.
