remember they did say good things are on the horizon so they are at least still trying even if they can't give us whatever that is right now that's giving them such trouble

new toonami schedule was just revealed
CountFrylock replied to CountFrylock's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
that's the most perplexing thing about this schedule it comes when WBD is promoting toonami on other channels and as you said they wouldn't be doing that if they didn't want to support the block so the question then becomes...what's the issue? i don't think they intend on double naruto being a permanent fixture on the block like double one piece has been -
new toonami schedule was just revealed
CountFrylock replied to CountFrylock's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
Someone on the toonami reddit pointed out that it's concerning that lupin and one piece have been forced to headline the block due to them never being all that successful nielsen ratings wise on toonami -

Netflix takes Junji Ito for new anthology series
CountFrylock replied to Jman's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
Toonami Doesn't Have Anywhere near the amount of money that netflix does so don't try and act like the toonami crew's lack of content lately is due to laziness or incompetence it's due to Sony Having a stranglehold on the distribution market and toonami having very few options in terms of shows they can actually obtain so quit acting like Toonami Did this to themselves when it's something they had no control over -
Netflix takes Junji Ito for new anthology series
CountFrylock replied to Jman's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
why does it always feel like netflix is desperately trying to seem cool with the anime crowd while saying "How Do You Do Fellow Otaku's? I Sure Do Love me some pocky pocky sticks!" -
PRIMAL SEASON 2 release date announced?
CountFrylock replied to OwlChemist81's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
is this the first time they've premiered anything new on thursday? I can't remember the last time this happened seems like it's been so long since sunday became the default day for premieres and it also seems like they are moving away from more than one show airing new episodes on the same day not sure how i feel about that -
PRIMAL SEASON 2 release date announced?
CountFrylock replied to OwlChemist81's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
Thursday seems quite random seeing as sunday is the day they always want to premiere new episodes of [AS] Originals outside toonami -
I Wish we could have gotten this kind of action before things got so rough for the block.... seeing promo's during AEW right now while we're expecting a time slot cut just seems weird to me

MHA S6 Fire Force S3 and Dr Stone S3 are less certain because those would require them to work with crunchyroll something I'm not sure is even possible because that requires sony to come to the table and since they control so much of the anime distribution market i can see them declining and i agree toonami's in for a rough patch when it comes to pick up's especially since there's only so many originals they can air in a year and they have a limited amount of reruns they can actually air without needing a new contract to be written up so reruns could only buy them time for so long before they run out of reruns they still have the rights to air on television
-
i don't think they'll be doubling up primal as that would require them to replace it sooner and given how things are with toonami right now a replacement isn't guaranteed this is the most uncertain time for the block and nobody knows what they can or can't acquire anymore which means moving forward it's just gonna be pointless fan speculation that leads to nowhere if the show never airs because without full confirmation that it's not gonna happen You'll have people shouting "Any Day now this show will be on the block!" Yashahime S2 might be coming or it might not that's how uncertain and bizarre things are right now what were once guaranteed shows might be tied up in crap that toonami doesn't want to deal with or can't deal with
-
yeah I've noticed that some people were banking on a time slot being cut ever since that schedule promo used the time and the silence around AC's replacement has made them very confident that's gonna happen the person in question responded "if the upcoming schedule is trash on top of this tweet' we don't have much to speculate on it's simply not going to improve" they've been shouting that toonami's on its last leg without Crunchyroll and that they can't even depend on Sentai due to the mystery around the amc buy-out so if a time slot cut is announced they'll tweet that the block is dead and we're all wasting our time thinking otherwise everything lately just seems to be giving them the idea that they were right all along and everyone else was an idiot who just couldn't see the truth
-
it's unfortunate this show can never be on toonami due to crunchyroll as i think it would fit the block quite well
-
pretty much...it'd be like promoting one piece with ennies lobby footage

people make death threats over someone developing a video game they thought was poorly made so how's this any stranger? when someone's life is so terrible that they can only gain satisfaction from making everyone else miserable they'll make threats about anything and try to play it off as legit even though it's all an act to bring everyone else down to they're level and make them feel just as shitty as they do on a daily basis probably common enough for him to become less transparent about his work moving forward i doubt it's just because some people said he was doing a bad job...He's been getting those kind of tweets for years now and he never decided to talk less about the inner workings of toonami over it so there's something more to this than simply the average negative comments we're using to seeing or hearing about whatever the case maybe...moving forward we're on our own in terms of speculation we won't know what toonami can or can't get because demarco is done with providing us those details one thing i will say is that this tweet chain coming out shortly before a new schedule announcement is depressing as it feels like we might be losing a time slot and not getting anything if demarco's already acting like this
-
unfortunately this is becoming all too common online and if nothing's done about this then eventually nobody will want to interact with the fans online if they keep spamming them with hate messages and screaming at them 24/7 i blame everyone who probably sent death threats to demarco or called him every insult in the book on a daily basis and sent it to his twitter they ruined a good thing for everyone else and i don't think the people who flooded him with threats and insults realize that they didn't know how good of a thing we truly had with him being so transparent

i suppose this does put a dumper on those rumors of AS/Toonami being shutdown by next year(Why bother promoting it outside adultswim if there's already plans in place to remove adultswim from television) although this commercial still seems weird because as many have already mentioned before it's using Pain Story footage episodes that toonami no longer has the rights for(Meaning if people tuned in expecting those episodes they'd be confused)
