Blatch

They were only five episodes in when the show got pulled. I wouldn't count out them rerunning those.

Maybe it's because they have no idea what they're talking about.

Yeah, I did the one for GiTS... and now this one, too. Enjoy "Beast Titan" tonight, plus the rest of the episodes. I'll be too busy getting extra sleep.

I don't know, but any normal network wouldn't have aired a particular show to this extent. It's making Nickelodeon's constant whoring of SpongeBob back in the late 2000's look tasteful. Are any of their other shows doing badly? Because even if TTG has been doing great, I don't see the reason why you can't have anything else.

Did the stream ever switch episodes when Bebop was on last week? They tend to not do so for whatever reason during big events such as SDCC. But to ignore it on this particular week would be strange.

I feel like it would be a bigger announcement if someone wanted to keep under wraps... maybe even a co-production. But this is a good guess.

Ouch. So that experiment only lasted one week? Why not give it at least a little time, unless Toei saw what Toonami tried to do and threw a fit. This also means that the Samurai Jack encore only airs at 3:30 now. I'm not sure why they aren't considering it a part of the block. You could just as easily promote it that way and have the block run from 11-4. Honestly, while getting back 11:00 is nice, and it's good to see that they can use the slot for things other than co-productions... I don't really think this fixes anything. You're risking saturation with airing DB Super three times in one night. If you want to encore it, do so on a different day, like Wednesday at 8:00P. Would that be good enough? For Toei, probably not. And why does the official on-air schedule now have spaces between the content rating and the descriptors? That goes against everything I assumed about them for the past few years. What the hell, man.

All right, DB Super at 11:00. I didn't think that would happen. It'll be out of the movie recap arcs soon, which is the perfect time for a ratings increase. Whether that'll actually happen... well, I couldn't care less.

Contrary to last week, I actually will post the ratings... for comedic purposes. Here they are. DB Super's ratings actually got worse when it was a premiere. Let that sink in for a moment. Now it's on to next week to see if that was a fluke, perhaps due to the DirecTV sort-of outages.

I think it's doing fine if you compare it to Gundam. Really, the 2:00 hour, no matter what shows are in it (even One Piece), has been down for most of this year. You can watch this show on VRV, but that is not the end-all solution, especially since the Funi simulcast is two weeks behind (or three, if you're not subscribed).

I thought he lived in Florida?

I don't know why this thread hasn't been active, but the SDCC panel is almost done and there are some news to report: The new TIE is... basically Intruder 4, but they're calling it Countdown. Coming this fall, in probably four or five chapters. There was actually another major announcement they wanted to do, but outside circumstances delayed it. Maybe it was about a future show. Aside from teasing Stardust Crusaders again, they aired the first episode for everyone to see, and it's actually on the stream this time. It should still be in its original airing as this gets posted, so head over there soon if you'd like to watch it! And they showed the FLCL trailer and played games. Overall, not a total waste. ::]::

My hype for Children of Ether spontaneously combusted when I found out it was only a one-off special instead of a series. Still, I'm probably going to be forced to watch it at some point, much like with Shelter. That's the one thing I absolutely hate about Crunchyroll: They hype their shows up ad nauseum and to the extent of a dictatorship. Nothing against the casual fans of each show, of course, but the marketing department (a.k.a. their only one) often hypes up genuinely bad shows as well.

That'll do, pig. I don't think this will make a difference right away, since the casuals always need a week to adjust to the new lineup. And the pre-Toonami lineup is still weak, which should change.

Wow, that's a really weak pre-Toonami schedule. Part of the problem is why they decided to start airing Venture Bros. reruns from Season Two, which isn't in HD. Maybe it'll get better. In two weeks, new episodes of Rick and Morty encore on Saturdays... and Friday. People might actually want to watch this stuff.

I don't know why Decker airs in that slot when it gauges so many viewers. 638K is a little over half of what the new MTM got. This must be another advantage of [as]' extremely low ratings floor.

Well, the demographics are green, which is good enough for me. And Lupin is really holding up down there.

Everyone I've seen who watches the show blithely ignored that and are currently focusing on the frog girl instead. And the well-animated fights. </3 Also, any ratings won't be in this post because I'd much rather you guys put your anger into something meaningful, such as... everything other than anime arguments. But they're out there, just to let you know.
