yeah there are more important things to be concerned with but there's very little we can do about those things in the long term....everything including toonami is operating under the assumption that things will be back to normal in the near future when we know that isn't the case....short term solutions are fine when we know they are short term but when they start to become long term solutions then it stops being fine and excuse me if i don't have much faith in the toonami viewers continuing to tune in for a line-up of reruns....this isn't a charity so i doubt many people will continue tuning in out of the goodness of they're hearts if there's nothing new for them

and what will? pretending everything's fine and that tonami's still doing great I'm sick and tired of people acting like my complaints are just made up and I'm just looking for any reason to cry and say "toonami's 2020 is confirmed horrible" when the truth is no matter how high and mighty you act....You'll kick this block to the curb if the rest of the year is reruns very few people here will stick around and anyone who tries to disagree is just lying

yeah so at this point maybe we should be prepared for the whole block being reruns by August or sooner with that in mind... i hope that isn't the case but with a reduced budget due to covid-19(plus paying for stuff that probably won't air this year now)it's very possible this will be the worst year for toonami in quite sometime

Yada Yada yeah but the more reruns that are on the block the less likely it is that people will keep tuning n that's the downside here and black clover is a show that has an uncertain future due to it's hiatus in japan which all depends on how they go about dealing with the virus if it's not back by august or september then i really don't know what to say....toonami has never aired black clover reruns before so who knows how many people will tune into those

yeah it did and i was like "uh what?...."

did anyone else notice earlier when midnight was seen briefly talking to all might it said Villain: All For One Over All Might's head in the text that they usually use to quickly name drop people and the quirks they have

who said they had to get newly dubbed shows? there's a gigantic library of shows never aired on toonami with a fully finished dub that have been around for a couple years it doesn't have to be brand spanking new....at this point i think that's the only option toonami can take either go into someone's backlog to try and find something cheap or rely on reruns and marathons as for the hiatus it depends on how japan handles covid-19 in the coming months....no country will magically get better over night

where did he say "Still Expect New Shows" though? nowhere he said the budget was cut and that a free show was better than one they had to pay for if there was nothing to worry about then we wouldn't be starting off toonami with 3 reruns

i hate these dub names...defeats the purpose of jojo's musical references if the references can't even be made imagine if a show referenced elton john but couldn't and instead had to say "Felton Ron"

he said the budgets been cut significantly due to covid-19 losses....i doubt that translates to "Still Expect Many New Shows this year" and as for black clover the show's on hiatus for an unknown amount of time so even with funimation's dub eventually they'll catch up and have no more to dub...which will lead to toonami running out of episodes

IGN's main complaint was that it felt too much like classic SOR without much in the way of reinventing the series

https://ask.fm/Clarknova/answers/160197211113 Demarco: We still had the rights to Mob Psycho 100. Our budget has been cut (understandably) due to financial losses resulting from Coronavirus. Nothing cheaper than free!

I'm sad now...according to jason demarco they're budget has practically been depleted due to covid-19 at this point so expect the block to be nothing but reruns soon.... I'm not sure how black clover reruns will do in this spot honestly

sounds like We'll bee seeing a lot more reruns at this point

it's out today

let's hope that will actually come to be

we're a long way off from any kind of treatment or cure at this point...so anyone holding out for that is gonna be waiting for a long time

because people keep shrugging it off and acting like everything will be under control in a month or two most people see this as a very brief setback and i have no idea why it seems so insane to even think anime production could be down longer than what people here have been guessing

do they really have a choice at this point to be so picky about the first slot? it's not like they have a lot of amazing popular choices on the table due to the current situation slapping a rerun on that first slot(no matter what it is)would be really stupid

the strangest would be if the entire block becomes reruns for the rest of the year

do you really think the corona virus is gonna settle down by july?

the toonami sub-reddit clearly is a dumpster fire....made one comment about how me and my mother are struggling to avoid a trip to the store(since we both have asthma and she has MS)by improvising however we can with what's left food wise only for someone to say "oh you poor baby clearly your burden is the heaviest of all...having to eat mediocre food that must be the worst thing to ever happen to anyone i do weep for you"

i don't know if it really needs them
