Maybe because it's more interesting to see people actually use all their tools than a one-sided squash match?

The St. Pierre fight wrecked Toonami.

Watch as Netflix announces Black Clover as its next original.

Season 4 debuted last month and well...I wish the money had gone towards a Demonbane remake instead.

Gundam Unicorn 12. At least I was. Back to work.

The Hollywood Reporter puts things in context: http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/how-netflix-is-disrupting-empowering-japans-anime-industry-1050297 And I still say a lot of Toonami shows would score big on Netflix and Hulu. The problem in many cases isn’t the show (except in the case of Hiatus, it’s the show) but rather the distribution method.

Link? I mentioned blazing through Unicorn on YouTube while having ignored the Toonami run. (Thanks GundamInfo!)

I think it’s the accessibility.

Gundam Unicorn 11. Why couldn’t I be arsed to see this on Toonami but I’m blazing through it now?

Of all the old shows that possess charisma, Yu-GI-Oh is the one exception. The show is literally the worst kind of advertisement to the point I’m not sure how it aired back in the day given numerous FCC laws that prevent direct advertising to children.

Bravestarr?

I do think Toonami gets less credit for making the stuff cool again but at the same time it arrived as companies with immense financial resources began to do what no one really had done. Market it with other things in a way that was respectful. The days of 4Kids edits and ultra niche cable on demand services are over. Now these companies outbid Toonami and show it on demand in a way that’s easy to access.

There’s definitely an uptick with social media after it returned. At the same time, now you have Cracked articles about Froppy when she’s a supporting character in anshow only available online.

Toonami possibly convinced Netflix this was a niche market worth tapping into at a greater level, but so could Crunchyroll having comparable subscription figures to the WWE Network.

I saw the casting choices. It looks like a dumpster fire.

Yeah, Netflix keeps giving them dump trucks full of money. Now tell them to hurry up and commission Cannon God Exaxxion already, I need something to rub in the faces of Voltron fans.

Game 7 of the ALCS and college football.

This is apparently the first of a series of animated films.

To be fair, up to Raoh, FOTNS made considerably more sense than DBZ ever did.

It's comparing an action show to a farce. Everyone I know who got into the show did so because of the fights, because they looked cool. It's the definition of style over substance.

The Deuce Episode 6. Seriously, you have a show from The Wire’s creator, and you’re watching Riverdale?

Gundam: The Origin 5.

Mochi thinks everyone is gay or a homophobe.

Vegeta got it way worse with Cooler. “My dick. Why does he keep punching me in the dick?!”

Mochi, everyone in One Piece save Sanji is asexual. Didn’t you get the memo?
