i think toonami gave themselves quite the problem here with one piece 1.confused viewers who have to go to funimation now to catch up(of course when they do that...they'll be tempted to just skip past where toonami is) 2.even at two episodes per week the pacing here is terrible...previously the pacing was turning off people from tuning into one piece and now that it's doubled that turns off those very same people for an hour

nobody knows...the crunchyroll name was removed from hbomax after they were sold to sony and all the anime was moved to a generic international animation section

Honestly i wonder what the plans are for anime on hbomax moving forward...Hbomax has not been doing a good job themselves of promoting that the fifth plate dub is coming

at the same time though....we haven't heard anything about a dc movie night on 3/5 and that will be next week's toonami plus since the same day as theaters deal on hbomax is no longer a thing....I'm not too sure if using toonami to promote them would make much sense it's easy enough to get the adultswim audience to watch a movie on hbomax(something they might already have access to)than it is to get them to pay for a ticket and sit down for several hours

volume 2 of chainsaw man was added alongside volume 1 of the soul eater perfect edition and volume 1 of fullmetal alchemist the fullmetal edition

The Midnight Timeslot helps out a lot....i think we're at a point where the lead show just isn't gonna be beat by what comes afterwards in terms of nielsen ratings

updated manga shelf this month

they really do but for some reason Oda just likes sticking to the same repetitive character jokes... it's amazing that Sanji being a horny man who can't control himself around women and refuses to fight women to the point of being a liability on the crew stuck around this long

it really does seem like the hype for AOT On toonami just isn't there anymore....which makes the "Toonami gets to air the dub one day before funimation streams it" bit pointless

"my god you are fat"

big chungus

Mecha Naruto is on the cover of naruto ultimate ninja storm revolution and is part of that game....which is why the mecha stuff got into those two episodes and yeah the fact we had two episodes promoting a ps3 game shows how old these episodes are....makes them seem even more out of place

doesn't change the fact that this is pointless filler it was made to promote a specific video game and that's all there's nothing to be gained from it now

a video game advertisement episode for a game from 2014....airing in 2022

would anyone really miss naruto if they had to deal with more stupid crap like this before it concludes on toonami?

this episode is promoting naruto ultimate ninja storm revolution for ps3

so product placement for a video game on the ps3....,makes watching it now really awkward on toonami

so this episode is product placement for a video game....which means watching it on toonami is weird because they are trying to sell you on a video game from long ago

made in abyss is the exception not the rule....i feel more satisfaction watching one episode of assassination classroom than two episodes of one piece

as much as i enjoy one piece on toonami the fact that less happens in two episodes per week than one episode of any other show on the block frustrates me

koro sensei is not well versed in that department

that's the thing though....they gotta keep the pipeline steady and new anime content coming consistently otherwise it's gonna be hard to keep anime fans coming to your service instead of just hopping onto funimation I Know HBO Max probably won't be able to keep a steady stream of anime coming in the near future

wouldn't be surprised to hear an announcement of exclusive anime titles headed to paramount plus at this point or for amazon to try something like strikezone again but better
