Timeslots opening in Early 2019 and what might fill them
Blatch replied to OwlChemist81's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
Did you miss the thread about the S2 simuldub? Also, I was being facetious about Fairy Tail, but I think the chances of it airing are slightly higher than people think. With Toonami getting close to losing several long-running shonen, they might grab whatever else is available with hundreds up episodes to fill a gap. -

Mob Psycho will move on to S2, but Megalobox will be replaced by nothing and the block will shrink. We get nothing new for the next three months to half a year until Toonami unexpectedly acquires SAO: Gun Gale Alternative as an apology for that one time. Oh, and Fairy Tail (from the first episode) replaces GGO. -

Wow, that's a solid gain for Mob Psycho. I hope they can take advantage of this by airing the second season right away. In other words, this new schedule is definitely working.
-
Oops. Somebody really neglected this show... but their loss isn't as bad as mine, as I need to watch past the second episode already.

Toonami U.S. Trending Report Screencaps Thread
Blatch replied to OwlChemist81's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
Cool stuff. I ended up zoning out on the trending game after the guy who makes those posts for Toonami Faithful blocked me for joking about SAO, so it's nice to see that old habits don't die hard. I could complain about this being useless fluff, but really, making content ratings images for various shows is an even more pointless hobby. Also, this makes more sense than still tracking the Nielsen ratings. -
LOL. The true power move is for Toonami to actually air Shield Hero, because the controversy will obviously make it do well.
-
With OP still shitting out money (in Japan) like no one's business, I'd be more surprised if the higher-ups aren't pressing him to keep it going. It's only a negative if you want Oda to ever work on something else.
-
He must be tickled pink since it's not easy being green... or staying that way. Alas, it's really looking like they should've gone back to Black Clover being the DB lead-out, regardless of anything regarding Boruto.

To his defense, I think Nick's Shield Hero preview had some nuance. He goes on for a bit about how it's a boring RPG-like isekai we've seen a hundred times before, and the tertiary characters don't exist except for being objects to help the MC get back at everyone for betraying him. It's just that everyone in the cursed ANN thread decided to pounce on him for the other half; some of them (definitely not you) may be raging misogynists of any right-of-center political flavor that I don't agree with, but I support their point that it's not good to jump to conclusions like this. Anyone who watches this show due to the false-rape accusation part of the plot or for anything about the author's politics just to "own the libs" is making a mockery of themself. That shit ain't rational, even if the show could ultimately at least be decent. You're better off celebrating the good stuff that's airing this year.

I was just wondering when Poke was going to do images again. As luck would have it... The Ancient Magus' Bride #15 Zombie Land Saga #6 Mr. Osomatsu S2 #1
-
Ah, come on. Why was I careless like that. I'll bump the chances up to 60/40 now.
-
You mean Countdown? Assuming "Fall 2019" means November like with previous TIEs, The Forge will arrive about two years after Countdown. In that case, a new TOM is a perfectly reasonable expectation to have.
-
We don't know if they're getting S2 immediately. I think there's about a 50/50 chance it happens, and that's being a little generous. CR may not have gotten a good handle on producing dubs yet, but it's been long enough since the first season ended that it's reasonable they've already started assembling the dub cast for more recording sessions.
-
Here's a hot take: I don't think Toonami was wrong to push for Boruto when they did. Putting personal reasons for hating it aside, they mismanaged the block so we don't know what its true ratings potential is, and that's hurt it more than any of its actual content. Now that we have a more traditional Toonami block debuting this weekend, we'll see what happens
-
Eh... this isn't a good look for ANN in particular, but I also question how a film with the backing of a cult was licensed over here to begin with. Eleven Arts should take some blame on that end.
-
The worst ratings ever: so good, they're back for one more round. There's probably nowhere to go but up from here, but the whims of the TV industry are strange.
-
Between the Sky and Sea #2 And that's it. The first episode I watched of any anime this year, if you didn't already see, was Made in Abyss #4, so talk about a downgrade.
-
Or we could bless Toonami with the wholehearted rapey goodness of The Rising of the Shield Hero! Well, not really. But there's this huge discourse about the MC of the show having a false rape accusation put against him, so he ends up getting his comeuppance by, through a way I don't know how, getting the accuser's legal name changed to "Bitch". Also, he owns slaves. I'm regretting that I ever predicted this show to air on the block at all.
-
I was talking about you failing the challenge.
-
Zombie Land Saga #5 to #7 Is that because the site briefly died over the summer? I made a general spreadsheet of what I watched over the year, and it includes anime as well as other shows and movies. You can tell where I really started slacking and got overtaken by schoolwork, video games, and/or general apathy, but I hope it gives an idea as to my media tastes. You can find it right here.

Could *Insert shitty show here* be headed to Toonami?
Blatch replied to OwlChemist81's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
I like your intentions, but that's not Crunchyroll's doing at all. Sentai announced the dub long before the Funiroll deal broke up and any of this started.- 396 replies
