  1. They watch it, which is more than I can say for One Piece.
  2. Oh yeah, because fucking Skull jokes are the pinnacle of comedy! Besides, Roger Smith is anime Batman. Everyone knows that.
  3. The block is better forgetting One Piece.
  4. Excuses to make OP look good and everything else including the block look bad. Your show failed the ratings litmus test because people thought One Piece sucked. It wasn't because Americans were stupid, or people didn't get the "genius" at work, it was because they thought it sucked. End of discussion.
  5. Except Naruto always gained on OP.
  6. I'm getting kinda sick of the "One Piece is gone now Toonami is doomed!" talk. One Piece is gone because it couldn't cut the fucking mustard. It had numerous chances to get a casual audience and blew it every single time. We have ratings data over four years. And we have One Piece constantly, frequently the weakest link. And getting rid of it means Toonami is dead? Getting rid of it was smart. It doesn't make Americans stupid for not wanting to watch an overly silly, painfully so at times, long runner. And the constant "Durr, Muricans are stupid and Toonami is dead because they didn't watch OP" makes me go "Fuck One Piece. It had more chances than a lot of other shows and never worked out. So good riddance!"
  7. One Piece will not be among them. Because it failed! Whine and complain about the other shows, but it was One Piece that failed! It failed because it wasn't popular! You lose! Good day sir!
  8. A lot of shows don't reach that pinnacle of mainstream, or are popular in some areas but not others. You think anyone in Europe gives a damn about Friday Night Lights? As much as we do about Tintin and Asterix (Not a lot). One Piece is never going to be a thing here and that's OK.
  9. One Piece failed and other shows succeeded. What else is there to say?
  10. When I said a show was "for babies" once I got called out, but when Zeni does it every second no one say a thing.
  11. Let's not joke about that. Although the guy lies so often (he claimed today he didn't really have a wife and kids) so who knows?
  12. Well, that's as good a reason as any.
  13. Shippuden was out scoring One Piece. Consistently. One Piece lost. Toonami endures. FLCL coming soon, One less slot on permanent lockdown.
  14. Yes because being able to revive Samurai Jack and getting shows like Tokyo Ghoul and Season 2 of Attack on Titan are the sure signs of a dying block.
  15. Might explain why those masks became so popular.
  16. They aired the show consistently for years, and as per DeMarco, went to bat to prevent its cancellation earlier numerous times. Even gave it a marathon. They tried everything and it didn't take. So what else can you really say?
  17. Isn't it already on Netflix? Why Netflix would want to lock it up as an exclusive when it's a failure in ratings makes no sense.
  18. Which is currently down. Anyway, OP is cancelled.
