So the replacement for Outlaw Star and Cowboy Bebop are... reruns. *claps* What the fuck was the point of airing double Bebop to "finish out the arc" if they were just going to rerun it again. Whelp, look forward to another 10 years of nonstop Bebop reruns. FLCL reruns I can kind of see the point. It's leading into the new series, a refresher for old fans, and surely there are at least some people who haven't seen it before. I'm not sure if it will have the effect Demarco intends, though... Not sure about placing it between Dragon Ball and Black Clover, though. That will be quite the whiplash. Well, maybe the way some of the characters act is similar to Black Clover's? Lots of screaming and people acting ridiculous in FLCL. I may be overthinking it though. And why are they moving Black Clover down? Sure the new FLCL deserves to be showcased but FLCL is not popular with casuals. Still disappointing though. Honestly at this point I wouldn't be surprised if a rerun replaces IBO. So many baffling decisions. Demarco is becoming as senile and out of touch as Vincent McMahon.

I have no idea how anyone has anymore appetite for anything Naruto-related. I didn't even realise that Boruto was planned to go long enough to become a long-runner. Fairy Tail at least takes breaks. But yeah it would air for long stretches and still has some filler. One Piece got grandfathered in. It could change formats but Toei is probably too greedy for that. It's not like people are going to "forget" about One Piece if it's not on for a while. But was the big three concept even in Japan or was it something America came up with? But that's not a very good reason either way. That may be so but if that were the case why did so many series move away from the long-runner model? Also I thought the Bleach anime ended or was cancelled because of the filler? Though how people put up with Shippuden's bullshit I have no idea. These decisions would be based on what Japanese audiences wanted so that makes me think even they finally got sick of the filler bullshit.

But it's a waste of a slot.

Yup. One of the BGMs on Super tonight actually sounded like a Faulconer track, heh. -
Maybe. At least tonight was good. But Bebop better not be back. That would be a far greater injustice.

To add to those, Attack on Titan, One Punch Man, Seven Deadly Sins, SAO, and just about every other series has gone with the seasonal model. It's the new standard. The fact Pierott would go this way with Black Clover is truly baffling.

I don't know what the hell that was or what purpose it served, but it was demented. Also Scavengers broke the streak of showing Japanese subbed stuff. Anyway, at least the insanity is finally over! The Adult Swim sign off thing... one last bit of insanity lol. -

Scratch that. Looks like just one Bebop tonight. Still, it better not be back next week. -

What was the point of shooting him when they were both going to get shot up anyway? -
