Like it or not Nothings replacing twitter/x and I can’t really see there being much of a crowd on blue sky

To me toonami lost its appeal when the packaging got stale and we started to get fewer Tom/Sara segments

Even so I’m not expecting something amazing 4 shows in and I have my doubts most folks aren’t in bed by that time.

Let’s stop pretending that time slot is anything but irrelevant after naruto concludes. Nobody’s gonna stay up that late for whatever it is

There’s a lot but here’s a few. 1.uzumaki will come out when it’s ready and production is going great. 2.he has no desire in toonami airing earlier or more often he believes the current time slot is perfect. 3.no plans to change the toonami packaging graphics. 4.slim chance of gundam witch from mercury being on toonami but he says maybe someday things will be different 5.he already knows what’s gonna replace naruto 6. Things between crunchyroll and toonami seem to change every six months. 7.if he Could pick one western franchise to make an anime for toonami he thinks mad max would be the best choice

Watching one piece on toonami is frustrating because even at two episodes per week. It’ll be years before The Next Story line… things became less frustrating when I started streaming it on crunchyroll. I could get a couple episodes in and then switch to something else Honestly if I had never switched to streaming I realize I wouldn’t have been able to watch Frieren spy family or chainsaw man whatsoever

I think many people here have this assumption that toonami can do much better than boruto at that time slot. It’s 2024 and I don’t think that’s true. Maybe when companies were eager to be on toonami and any time slot was a good time slot but now? I just don’t know who’d be interested in lending out a show for the barely anyones awake time slot

Cable television is mostly reruns these days. A lot of channels are just playing old movies and tv shows That isn’t worth paying so much for

Regardless of what’s in that time slot nobody’s gonna watch it. Fewer and fewer people watch toonami each year so why pretend that isn’t the case? There’s little chance a new show gets that time slot and keeping it around just for more DBZ Kai Reruns seems silly

It’s more likely they’d get rid of that time slot entirely

My problem Is it feels like adultswim is becoming more and more just background noise the network that this Could be any other network and nothing would be different

I haven’t watched it in months since getting rid of cable and paying out the ass just to watch anime once a week made no sense Now I just watch anime on streaming services

There still isn’t enough episodes of most original content so they gotta pad out the schedule with koth/bobs/Ad which ends up making adultswim look very repetitive and boring

It’s a shame because I don’t think anime should just be relegated to graveyard slots on Saturday especially when adultswim struggles to fill time slots Monday-Friday without using multiple bobs burgers American dad and king of the hill episodes

I remember when they tried airing my hero academia as something to close out the nightly programming for adultswim Monday-Friday However they couldn’t even get through the third season before removing it from the lineup

I used to enjoy watching toonami but eventually realized the community aspect of watching shows the same time as everybody else wasn’t worth paying out the ass for cable television The toonami discord will say “streaming it doesn’t give you the same kind of enjoyment” but I disagree

Honestly how many people are really using toonami as the primary way they watch anime?

Remember when people thought this year toonami fans would be eating real good

Several marvel manga books got added to the viz manga app and all viz manga subscribers get a 1 month trial code for marvel unlimited meanwhile marvel unlimited subscribers get a 1 month trial for viz manga

One night per week just isn’t much when it comes to consuming anime and like I just stated cable television is too damn expensive to justify holding for toonami

It’s been months since I even watched toonami I ditched cable long ago and i decided I’m better off watching my anime on streaming services than to continue holding onto cable television when so many of the channels have turned to absolute crap

To be honest this season was too frustrating for me and I’ll be a lot happier not dealing with more of this next season

Speaking of them thoughts on them so far. Have these match ups turned out like you thought they would?

I’ve been feeling a little sore lately and seeing my fantasy football team fail like that didn’t make it any better All could have been avoided if I benched taysom hill and played puka over olave as well as not even pick up the bengals defense. Yet I chose not to do the right thing and opted to play it experimental

Why do you ask?
