mha My Hero Academia Episode #58 (320) Discussion
Jman replied to OwlChemist81's topic in Episode Discussion Archive
I’m convinced the time change is due to internal politics and Hulu. MHA continually crushes graphic novel sales and Hulu views, essentially being a cottage industry into itself. Also last week’s airing gained on the show before it. -
For reasons unknown to Americans, a 5th Tenchi Muyo OVA is coming

All I remember from AIC is them launching a bunch of Kickstarters for their properties and the only ones to get funded were Megazone 23 ones. -
Double post.

Snyder's job of making needlessly bleak shows is already covered.

It doesn’t matter how big your show is, if you air it a year after the fact, edited down, people will watch elsewhere. Good example - Fire Force seems pretty cool one episode in. If it takes 18 months to air it on Toonami, no one will care because they saw it.

Gee, it’s almost like trying to mess with a company backed by Sony lawyers is a bad idea.

Depends if this is a ratings issue or a “Fucking FUNimation is stiffing is by going with Hulu” issue.

You need some of the actors advertising it on their social media. That MIGHT help. Key word might.

Gundam bested Food Wars and that’s an OVA that was available for a year on Hulu. Damn good one, a tale of political intrigue and personal tragedy, but one that makes you ask “what happens next”? And I think the series will say “To be continued, in 2021 at a theatre near you!” LA Gundam billion dollar box office imminent.

The executives are beginning to plan for HBO Max, which will include Crunchyroll and AS originals. Toonami may get the short end of the stick here.

300. I’m telling you guys, that PPV didn’t do Toonami any favors.

Well as far as the artificial feud went, it worked. Goblin Slayer was the top viewed show in every single state during its season, a feat last performed by One Punch Man. And then we had Shield Hero being one of the top viewed shows worldwide thanks to its artificial feud with the phantom High Guardian Spice, making Kate Leth and The Dangerhairs nothing more than an easy target for fans of the two shows to lay into. I wouldn’t be surprised if the next we hear about it is when Crunchyroll wants to bankroll another show that might be controversial, like I dunno, Cannon God Exaxxion. Dr. Stone meanwhile is being hyped as THE next big thing in shounen. No small shoes to fill but the hype machine has to go beyond what you would do for an isekai like Shield Hero. I’ll say this much, from what I’ve seen of the two, I’m enjoying Fire Force more than Dr. Stone, but either way, this means big money for streamers.
