Hey, I was just on the "Something Completely Different" page yesterday night. How interesting that great minds make a tangent.

It certainly bolsters the theory that something new will air at 11:00 but it's not ready yet, hence Jack's position as a placeholder.

Actually, [adult swim] is doing that, but on Sundays. A full hour of S5 Jack alongside the existing Toonami rerun, and it starts this weekend.

Birdy the Mighty: Decode | Cipher 13... ~Stand by Me~

Eh... it's been 90 days already, and you never posted a follow-up to this. It's been sticking in my head for a while now. Any time soon would be nice, though. And don't forget to do one for 180 days as well.

Maybe Lupin was intended for MoMoCon the same way Parasyte was intended for SDCC before the damn food truck got in the way. And, like I've said before, if they were going to air something new at 11:00, it would have been said prior to this. Because you can't just drop a new show announcement a week before it premieres at the top slot. Hitherto, it probably is the Jack rerun. That is what they might end up clarifying. Or perhaps it could be a placeholder, like Brian said. Either way, I'm not going to hold my breath for Friday's panel.

Wait, what? When did that rule become a thing? I thought we co-opted a rule of "three ass words for a PGL".

Tokyo Ghoul was the show I was referring to.

The series would probably be over by then, which makes it an excellent crackpot theory. :fap:

Birdy the Mighty: Decode | Cipher 12... ~Doomsday~

Why do you have to make this same thread for every holiday weekend?

The season. It's structured like a four-hours-or-so movie, but the pacing isn't optimal.

Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World #25 (END) High School of the Dead #5 Birdy the Mighty: Decode #12 (finally!) Kenka Bancho Otome -Girl Beats Boys- #1 [i said "be careful"; his bow tie is really a camera]

I've heard it's not that good anyway. Rin doesn't use his famous catchphrase in the season, among other weirdness.

Fuck the shut up.

I suppose you're not wrong. 2M viewers came in during an episode on Namek. However, I don't think Super will take over 11, at least for right now. The episode would air at the same time as the premiere on the west coast. And in general, it's not a good idea to move up something that isn't holding over well from the previous. Even if not much would retain well from Samurai Jack, but I think we can imagine how things would turn out.

Apparently, they got a two-season renewal and are working on all those episodes at the same time. So yeah, except five years might actually be a generous estimate.

Same, mostly because of... outside conditions.

Well, they already announced Lupin, which is coming two weeks later. If they had something to replace Jack, or really any update on the 11:00 slot at all, it would have been said prior to this, or maybe on tonight's episode of Pre-Flight. Because doing otherwise is just shitty scheduling all around. I'd rather have no show up there than a Jack rerun, but that's purely a personal opinion and it would be wrong to go after Jason about it. :420:

Is it really too much to ask them to leave a video dude behind so they can change the episodes when it's time? [yes]

From what I've heard, some of the VAs for the Gundam show have already finished recording their lines. So that one should be ready to go whenever someone wants it. I'm actually edging towards the second season of IBO not airing on Toonami, at least for a while. Perhaps it could go to FunimationNow?

Schedule change alert! Gundam Unicorn won't be replaced by Season 2 of IBO. Instead, we get a delicious taste of thievery with the new Lupin the 3rd anime. (link)

Birdy the Mighty: Decode | Cipher 11... ~Bye Bye Buddy~

It's very much based on fearmongering. Personally, if this is indeed true, I think it has to do with S5 of Jack doing well, but not affecting the rest of the Toonami lineup, but it's doing good already. It wouldn't be planned if it was like AoT where the show was bringing tons of viewers into the block for new episodes.

I'd rather them just lose 11:00 than having to rerun Jack, but I suppose this is better than nothing. And I couldn't care less out of the whole planet if it tanks in the ratings.
