  2. The anime is really good as well. Probably best of the season.

  4. What? That list you posted was for 18 -49.
  5. I mean they just keep bringing back all the most overused ideas and concepts from DBZ. Planets getting blown up, then fixed. Goku and Vegeta are rivals again. Frieza was cool right? Let's bring him back! Dragonballs? How about a third set of em! Can't go anywhere without your third set of balls. And they just keep doing more of it with Trunks, Piccolo dying and getting wished back and Gohan being a bitch. Goku always being one step ahead of Vegeta and always getting the kill. Krillin and all the side characters being useless cannon fodder. So... it's actually not that much different than DBZ. It's just that all the stuff Super is doing is so ridiculously played out and stale now that it really shows. It's a copy of something that worked 20 years ago that doesn't work anymore. Not to mention guess what happened in GT? Goku fights Frieza and Cell. Piccolo dies, gets wished back. Earth blows up. Earth gets wished back. Third set of Dballs the Dark star Dballs. Gohan and Goten being useless. Every side character being useless cannon fodder. Sound familiar? 10 years from now we'll have Dragonball Ultra, and they'll say Super isn't cannon anymore either.
  6. That's the power of evil Morty. Btw there's also an epilogue special episode that's pretty good and an alternate episode 23 that sets up Stein's Gate Zero.
  7. The Buu saga actually has stakes in addition to being entertaining. There is nothing at stake in Super and most of the episodes are just a boring waste of time. Planet blows up? Don't worry Whis will rewind time. Whis not around? Dballs? Or maybe the Namek balls? Super balls? I have about a billion problems with Super so I won't go into a ton of them... but one of my main problems is the show just flat out stopped following it's own rules. Ginyu got less powerful when he swapped bodies once upon a time, then in Super he gets more powerful. Stupid characters become smart, smart characters suddenly become stupid, Gohan the genius has to be reminded that they can use the D balls to revive fallen comrades. Frieza becomes more powerful than SSGOD with 4 months of training with a useless lackey. Power scaling in general is completely out the window in Super. Trying to make Goku a retarded sociopath who doesn't care about anyone and has never kissed his wife. And the worst thing of all DBZ was never well written or anything, but you can't go back on everything you ever wrote just to make a buck.
  8. Kai got 849k... honestly... about the same? 654 for Jojo. The ratings aren't much different than normal. Actually I think the ratings are higher than they were during the Mayweather fight. And yes Jojo powerbombed the ratings again with 77 percent retention.
  9. Good to hear, the first 10 episodes are all character and world building with no real plot to be found.... so a lot of people get bored and starting asking .. why is this considered one of the greatest anime of all time?? But then it answers that question. If you watched the English Dub you did miss one of the best known moments in the series though.
  10. OMG Tarble is cannon now? From that shitty OVA? Jesus.
  11. Well since nothing else is going on here, how did you like Stein's Gate =P
  12. Due to not being aware that there was a hurricane, CN execs have cancelled Toonami and replaced it with marathons of Teen Titans GO.
  13. Super always has terrible retention then it's followed by a massive drop for Jojo. Then a massive drop for Lupin. Everything else retains somewhat well, but mostly because there's not many viewers left to lose after these massive drops.
  14. "The Hyperbolic Time Chamber has been reconstructed by Dende. This new room can be used for at least three days of real time at once (three years within the room). The room likely lacks the weakness of the old chamber in having a destructible door, as Goku states, "No matter how far we take things here, we don't have to worry about destroying anything."[2] The two-time limit that a person can enter the Time Chamber has also been removed"
  15. Well usually... the creator says what is and isn't Canon. But in the curious case of DB..... Toriyama basically gave up his rights to the franchise and just lets other people create content. GT was canon.... then it wasn't. All those Star Wars books that took place after Return of the Jedi? All Canon. Until Disney bought the rights and said they weren't. So they were. But now they're not. Basically whoever the current owner of the franchise is gets to say what's canon and what isn't.
  16. I saw some stuff on the animation domination block. Surprised any of it aired on TV it was embarrassingly bad. Maybe they were just taking wild shots trying to find the next Family Guy?
  17. It's official. A Kai rerun retains family guy better than Super.
  18. Well there's a reason we call it a shameless cash grab.
  19. I think the ratings are particularly relevant to this block, due to this block being cancelled for low ratings. It would be quite another thing if Demarco owned the network and was like ... "Yo I don't care what the ratings are for anything, it's my network and I'll air what I want when I want!" Then ratings talk would all be moot.
  20. I don't like or watch Naruto or One Piece, but I understand why others would. I don't understand why anyone would like TG.
