another thing there's gonna be a boondocks marathon on friday which will also be advertising hbo max with another qr code for a trial ......this marathon really feels like toonami was told "Promote Our Flawless Streaming service and tell people to sign up while they watch this marathon!" which doesn't really help toonami in anyway....it just takes the regular break off in favor of some shameless advertising to beg people to sign up for hbo max so this wasn't done because toonami wanted it but more likely because ATT/Warner Media wanted it and toonami had to deal with it because a thanksgiving marathon when thanksgiving isn't exactly the big traveling holiday everyone's used to this year and without anything to really need to stall for it comes off as more than a little odd

I've Noticed How Desperate ATT/Warner-Media seems to be in getting people to subscribe to HBO Max but why is that? i haven't noticed Disney going to the lengths of screaming "Disney Plus Disney Plus!" all over every show they own and then making a Disney Plus Themed wrestling ring

so it's now confirmed that this marathon is nothing more than one big commercial for hbo max and that's the main reason this is even happening so they can talk about how great hbo max is and flash a qr code for a trial so that the viewers can experience the wonders of hbo max

no need to get so upset....I"m just voicing my opinion and my opinion is that i think people really paint primal as more of a toonami show than it really is feel free to disagree with me that is your opinion and i accept that but my opinion cannot be changed

regardless i guess my problem is that Primal's more of a depressing horrifying tale of tragedy than what toonami typically airs on the block Yes Primal Has Action but it's not the "Action" you think of when you think toonami and this is just my opinion but given how depressing this year has been i don't really need an entire marathon that makes me feel like shit because the entire atmosphere is hopeless despair

I Took it to mean that Crona was more or less an experiment of medusa's rather than an actual child that was born since crona has no father and medusa never really treats the character as anything more than an object to use there's never really any proof that crona is a real person instead of a fake entity that medusa conjured up

followed by the goriest scenes you can image from primal and panning back to the duo saying "On Second thought It'd be a living hell..."

the problem is there's nothing that toonami needs to buy time for right now so back to back to back marathons don't really make much sense right now going from primal to the regular block for two weeks then marathons for two weeks doesn't really do much for toonami the only thing they'd be buying time for currently would be fire force and even if you take away one marathon from december it's not gonna run out of episodes everything else on the block is a completed dub

Blair was the main source of fanservice in soul eater and she was nothing more than a very minor character

if the 19th isn't a normal schedule I'd be shocked

does anyone even care that much about playing this anymore?.....feels like nothing much of substance is added in updates and it's just more events to grind for furniture/clothing

we already know about the primal marathon coming up and there's usually two marathons in december although since they really aren't buying time for anything(black clover will return when it has enough dubbed episodes built up and the only announced show for January is an older series)and large celebrations are being heavily discouraged due to covid I Don't see the reason to keep up the tradition of two marathons in december

This will be the first episode i haven't seen since the first two episodes of season two were shown during the virtual funimation convention

i think the issue comes from the fact that silly adultswim shows like this just don't fit on a block known for kickass fights and action

i ask this because i really enjoyed soul eater but there's just something missing from fire force(created by the same author) no matter if it's the villains not comparing to medusa or something else entirely

however i don't think it's officially classified as a horror series... despite all that...can't imagine how the tom/sara promo for the primal marathon will be how do you hype up a marathon for a series like primal in the way that the toonami hosts usually talk up marathons? best you could do is just have tom and sara incoherently yelling then it pans to primal and says "Primal Marathon Next Saturday Only On Toonami"

which is a horror show

there's a difference between Primal Action and the action we usually see on toonami one is typically of the superhero/shonen variety with very few exceptions where as the other represents savage brutality and tragedy something toonami doesn't deal with that much unless it's a horror show of some kind

regardless there's something about primal that makes it seem out of place on toonami no matter how many times people like to say this is the perfect toonami show....just the way it's structured and the way it plays out doesn't make me think "Toonami Fans would love this!"

nobody has anywhere else to go so what are they suppose to do except watch toonami? i hope demarco and crew realize they don't need to do the traditional two december marathons when there's a global pandemic and nobody's suppose to having parties or whatever

i don't think any holiday will be negatively affecting any shows for awhile since people aren't suppose to be out partying anyways and getting together in large groups i wonder if they'll skip out on one of the december marathons as a result since we've already had a promised neverland marathon for october and a primal marathon for november wouldn't make much sense to do two marathons in december like usual knowing that plus there isn't really thing they gotta buy time for assassination classroom is an old dub fire force season 2 has enough dubbed episodes that knocking one marathon off in december shouldn't matter and I'm assuming SAO's dub for war of underworld part 2 is finished

btw i have the first four volumes of fire force(manga) got them last month on halloween

princess hibana

and then of course there's horikoshi who drew bunny lady mirko

i heard that sucked compared to the original sprite cranberry release
