Daos Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Super always has terrible retention then it's followed by a massive drop for Jojo. Then a massive drop for Lupin. Everything else retains somewhat well, but mostly because there's not many viewers left to lose after these massive drops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OwlChemist81 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 True. Why would anyone do nothing watching a late-night cartoon block when your walls are in danger of being torn apart by Category 4 winds?? You're missing the big picture. If a tornado's coming straight for me, I'm not watching the weather channel; I'm watching LOCAL news weather. The Weather Channel has been known to contain lots of overblown sensationalism in addition to factual reporting. That's why I have a problem with it destroying cable. That said, while large portions of the viewership was indeed affected by Irma, I daresay it will actually be College Football, namely the Auburn-Clemson game, which ruled cable on Saturday night. I also believe DBZ KFC will crack the top 20 if not the top 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainStarwind Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Well since nothing else is going on here, how did you like Stein's Gate =P Quite a lot, actually! The first few episodes were a slow burn, but once it got to about episode 10 I really got hooked on it. I binged through the rest of the series in two days after that. The idea of time travel is something that I love (my favorite movie is Back to the Future), so this series was really satisfying for me. Other random thoughts: -I like how the last two episodes of the series link back to the events in Episode 1. I thought this was going to be a mindscrew series when I first watched Episode 1, but I'm glad it became more straightforward pretty quickly. I also like how the series kinda comes full circle in using the last two episodes to explain the first one. I like when shows do that. -I thought the dub was awesome. All of the little name drops and references they made kept it really fun for me, and I thought the voice actors themselves did a great job. -I never actually heard of John Titor before watching this series, but it definitely got me interested in the guy. Titor was obviously a fake, of course, but it's still interesting to read about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steins;Gate really is something special, and you don't even need to appreciate the other anime in this franchise to enjoy it. The last 2 episodes really make you wanna rewatch the first one again! It comes close to Cowboy Bebop as one of my all-time most favorite anime for me. And yes, rumor is that the author's research on John Titor is what inspired this story to begin with.

Blatch Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Well, after that pop-up adventure, the ratings are out. As expected, a brutal showing. It took until #36 for anything not related to Irma or college football to show up. DBZ Kai was at #47. However, if you look at the raw numbers compared to two weeks ago, most of it was stable. Lupin even rated over 500K and had its best individual performance since July. Now, I can't stop you from being mad at anything, but hopefully you all take my preferred path.

The1gairon Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Nothing can replace Okabe's Engrish, but I think the dub did an excellent job localizing the entire dialogue exchange. Patrick Seitz translated the dub along with Tatum. The original seiya did some kind of broken, goofy,, loose Engrish, which was hilarious and cannot frankly be replicated. So Patrick just showed Tatum his idea of making Okabe speaking awkward jive, and said "I'm not sure how I feel about this out-there idea, but what do you think?"

The question is, if not Jojo, what should air after DBZ? Is there anything in he current lineup, or would they need a new show? I hope its not one of the situations where they have a timeslot commitment and they CAN'T move it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blatch Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Right now, stability is the key. 11:00P has a chance to do better if they just let it grow an audience organically. And as for FLCL 2... you know, JoJo's Part 3 was spread out into two seasons of 24 episodes each. I have to wonder if the Toonami run will take a break then. They could fit that in the open slot, or they could play a different show of around twelve episodes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

korosu Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 assuming april 14th for flcl2 under the assumption they will air all 6 episodes before memorial day. and i would guess flcl3 sometime after labor day. april 14th works with a halloween preemption but not both that and an april 1st preemption. one or the other though. and if there aren't any for either, it could easily just replace IBO. with only one preemption aside from the last two weeks in december, if they can air mob psycho 100 they probably will at 12:30 and IBO s02's second half will move to 1:30. let's assume they do this: the new flcl seasons should air at 11, flcl2 pushing super, kai, and jojo back. kai and jojo would finish at 12 and 12:30, and since attack on titan season 3 should be ready by the time flcl2 ends, that's a likely replacement. and flcl3 could air as early as the week after labor day weekend if aot s03 is 12 episodes and they have a july 7th preemption. they've never preempted the block one week after the first episode of a premiere, it's always at least two. can't really say for sure without knowing what's going on on halloween and april fool's.
