StarPanda Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 Dam produce 30 and release them all in 2018 Hopefully they are good Quote
Ginguy Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 Netflix being involved in anime isn't anything new. They are making a big bet on trying to corner the weeb market. No one else really cares about that market, so they are largely unchallenged. If Toonami/[as] were smart they would just focus on broadcast rights, instead of trying to get broadcast/streaming rights. the [as] stream is a trickle, so why bother with it. Focus instead on good original content to sell to streaming services, and leave Toonami as a uniquely broadcast event marketed to weebs in order to keep them from cutting the cord, which is where they get the majority of their cash from anyway.

Jman Posted October 17, 2017 Author Posted October 17, 2017 Amazon cares, and Hulu does too. Not to mention Crunchyroll, but do they count? Point is, DeMarco is pissed I bet. Quote
Blatch Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 Well, this seems to be a concentrated nuke uh... stream of dirty bombs aimed at not just Toonami, but the entire American industry at large. And you're going to be forced to buy in if you even tangentially like the medium. Quote

CaptainStarwind Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 I'm sure there'll be a few decent ones, but by and large most of them will probably suck. Unfortunate, but expected. Quote
The1gairon Posted October 18, 2017 Posted October 18, 2017 Netflix to also produce 80 movies in 2018. That is 1 movie every 4 days. I hate everything. Quote
The1gairon Posted October 18, 2017 Posted October 18, 2017 When Netflix gets all of Toonami's shows, dubbed, along with Funimation and Crunchyroll shows, .... THEN get back to me. Quote
mochi Posted October 18, 2017 Posted October 18, 2017 Netflix to also produce 80 movies in 2018. That is 1 movie every 4 days. I hate everything. with that quantity SOME of them have to be decent, most will probably be trash though Quote
OwlChemist81 Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 They better make Death Note 2. This would be interesting. Perhaps it would be set in like 2031, when a college-age offspring of Misa Amane and the late Light Yagami, who died in 2013, just months before he/she was born, learns of his/her father's fight to catch Kira (but somehow not that he WAS Kira, as Misa is careful to keep this detail away from him/her), learns of a new Kira and joins forces with Near, who is now in his mid-20's, to take down the new "Z"-Kira, who announces that he will be the "Kira to end all Kiras," and will bring destruction to the world! Misa's offspring being female is most interesting, since it allows the chance for a romantic relationship to form between her and Near, and all the while, since Near is painfully aware of his new partner's bizarre origins, and the fact that her mother herself WAS a 2nd Kira at one point in time, it allows for an interesting dynamic to grow between them as she slowly learns the truth, while the Z-Kira wreaks an increasing amount of utter havoc on the future world. Pretty compelling, huh? Quote

Pretty compelling, huh? I mean, I was referring to a sequel to the awful Netflix movie, but that could suffice. Maybe make this a tie-in to officially canonize the Netflix movie to the original source material. ? Quote
DragonSinger Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 Neo Yokio Season 2, homie! Yaaayy! Quote
mochi Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 RIP Toonami netflix is producing it's own, I fail to see how that prevents Toonami from picking up licenses also Toonami is producing it's own content now too Quote
OwlChemist81 Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 RIP Toonami Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah no. It may be down but it's far from out! Quote
ben0119 Posted October 22, 2017 Posted October 22, 2017 Amazon cares, and Hulu does too. Not to mention Crunchyroll, but do they count? Point is, DeMarco is pissed I bet. Demarco is probably having to be strapped down right about now. > Quote
OwlChemist81 Posted October 22, 2017 Posted October 22, 2017 I believe Toonami might not even be the only adult-oriented anime block on TV anymore soon. Futurama is going to Syfy on November 11th. Who knows what could come of that? Might even challenge DB Super's non-sports ratings dominance at 8:30 PM on Saturday nights! But I think we could be talking the return of Ani-Monday in 2018! Quote
PokeNirvash Posted October 22, 2017 Posted October 22, 2017 I highly doubt that, but hey, a third anime experiment for SyFy would work better than Three Fabulous Weeks of Chiller Ani-Wednesdays. Quote

Daos Posted October 22, 2017 Posted October 22, 2017 .... ...... Futurama isn't anime. Are you sure? Quote
OwlChemist81 Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 Yeah, but Futurama was super successful as a lead-in/lead-out to anime on Adult Swim. A LOT more successful than Family Guy is now. Besides, you're missing the point. Futurama may not be anime, but it is ANIMATION. Just the fact that Syfy is even trying regular animation for the first time in 6-1/2 years is pretty huge! Quote
CaptainStarwind Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 .... ...... Futurama isn't anime. But Cory in the House is Quote
The1gairon Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 But Cory in the House is .... you raise a CONVINCING argument, my son. Quote
