And the ratings show that it did Jack Effing Squat.

The sooner Bean Mouth goes the way of Liefeldian proportions the better. And DeMarco wonders why Netflix is eating his lunch.

There’s that disconnect on FLCL. The thing is, it’s the delivery method. Netflix making freaking Devilman a hit in the US is a small miracle when you think about it, but odds are very good it doesn’t happen if delivered via conventional TV.

Not really, and I really like Star.

It’s Tumblr. What did you expect? I’m hoping Gridman is better, but Gridman thankfully doesn’t have A1 Steak Sauce studio doing the writing.

No, anyone who wasn’t a hardcore Dumblr Stan for a gay pairing was chased out of the fandom by fujoshi so any conversation on the show is bullshit about said pairing. Bonus, the human toys all bombed!

And as noted the demos are varied but not showing a notable increase and in fact, a decrease consistent with the usuals trends. Normally it just means make fun of Black Clover, but this was something WS invested their budgets into, so the threshold for success is much higher.

I was only reminded because of Netflix showing a new trailer for that crap fest. And it’s like “Franxx is flawed on numerous levels but there’s still something enjoyable here.”

The show is flawed but it’s still way better than Voltron.

Well gee, the sequel no one but DeMarco wanted did numbers showing no one but DeMarco wanted it! I hate to say I told you so, but...

The movie cost next to nothing to make. It could do Action Point numbers and turn a profit.

We're getting Narrative. I'm betting on it. I'm still hoping against hope that "Western drama" is HBO Gundam, because that would still be amazing.

Viz distances themselves from an author associated with kiddie porn? I’m shocked. Actually I’m kind of relieved to be honest.

Dropped MHA after the second episode, which is why I stopped giving out about it. FLCL Progressive should be renamed FLCL Pointless.

I was expecting a very divisive opinion regardless.

So this apparently sucked. Surprised?

It being a new property is why I bought up IGPX. Which when you think about it is a really American approach to anime. ”More of these things that are cool.” ”Have them actually kiss dammit!” Shame the actual meat was so boring.

Joke option -

More sequels no one asked for! Although they said in the announcement it would be an original IP, presumably to go against the Netflix strategy of greenlighting every single manga that never got an adaptation (Watch as in the next year they announce 3x3 Eyes or some shit).

Same. Which sucked because the movie was so funny. Don’t forget Season 2, where they got Based Trigger to animate the opening...and nothing else.

My point was that the last time Toonami tried this, at the arguable height of their influence on the anime industry and viewing public, it flopped harder than the Windows Phone. This in turn is reactionary, and using an original IP, so I am skeptical.

I guess they decided to fight fire with fire. With less of a budget and stricter programming standards. Hey everyone! Remember IGPX?

I’m throwing up my hands at this point and watching Netflix.
