brianycpht Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 You mean the 28th? I have not seen anything about that, but I think it's the most likely scenario.

OwlChemist81 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Welp. http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-top-150-saturday-cable-originals-network-finals-10-7-2017.html 10/7/2017 Dragon Ball Super (8:30) #15 (-3) Adults 18-34 Rating - 0.48 Estimated 18-34 - 326,000 ( 37.95% ) Adults 18-49 Rating - 0.36 Estimated 18-49 - 462,000 ( 53.78% ) Total Viewers - 859,000 10/7/2017 DBZ Kai: Final Chapters #11 (-1) Adults 18-34 Rating - 0.54 Estimated 18-34 - 367,000 ( 45.88% ) Adults 18-49 Rating - 0.41 Estimated 18-49 - 526,000 ( 65.75% ) Total Viewers - 800,000 10/7/2017 JJBA: Stardust Crusaders - #17 (+1) Adults 18-34 Rating - 0.44 Estimated 18-34 - 299,000 ( 46.87% ) Adults 18-49 Rating - 0.33 Estimated 18-49 - 423,000 ( 66.30% ) Total Viewers - 638,000 10/7/2017 Gundam IBO - #20 (-2) Adults 18-34 Rating - 0.38 Estimated 18-34 - 258,000 ( 44.79% ) Adults 18-49 Rating - 0.30 Estimated 18-49 - 385,000 ( 66.84% ) Total Viewers - 576,000 10/7/2017 Lupin the 3rd - #22 (+4) Adults 18-34 Rating - 0.34 Estimated 18-34 - 231,000 ( 45.03% ) Adults 18-49 Rating - 0.27 Estimated 18-49 - 346,000 ( 67.45% ) Total Viewers - 513,000 These days, as 13 x 2, #26 seems to be twice as unlucky for whichever show it happens for, as it was a ratings low for AOT and is now a ratings low for Gundam IBO as well. This is probably the lowest-rated return for a series we've seen yet. The only saving grace is the demos, in which it was up slightly from its timeslot counterpart, as well as Lupin, but DBZ Kai and JoJo were up pretty bigly. At least it's better in total viewers than Gundam Unicorn finished, so yay for Gundam? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianycpht Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 As long as this setup exists with the Super premieres in primetime, along with the weaker comedy lead in, this is about what I've come to expect out of the block.

CaptainStarwind Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Well these ratings aren't fun. No, not at all. It's weird since the ratings are usually better when I don't watch Toonami live, and I haven't watched Toonami live since July... On a serious note, DBS, one again, needs to be moved from 11:00 PM. Put something else there. I'm not saying it'll keep the rest of the shows from dropping so much, but at the very least, it'll probably make the overall ratings higher.

Yes but....... HxH airs after 3 shows that crater in the ratings. Super, Jojo, and TG. So to be honest... there just isn't much to lose at that point. When the Jojo/ TG combo actually does decently, well you saw what happened to HxH's retention. But unfortunately, jojo and TG almost always retain horribly. And now IBO does even worse than TG. At this point you can probably say HxH deserves IBO's spot since it's debut was kind of a disaster. Plus HxH actually has a fanbase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlChemist81 Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 IBO had a lot of hype going for it, but now we can see that it hasn't lived up to it. It's also retaining JoJo almost as well as Tokyo Ghoul did, which is actually pretty good. Ghoul retained 92-95%, while so far IBO has retained 90%, except in 18-34, which was only 86%.

As of yet, this may be the first time that the prime time stealth premiere beats the "official" premiere. This just came out of nowhere Meanwhile the slight lift here did not benefit the rest of the night due to the weak comedy lead ins. The Saturday schedule is so broken at this point they are going to have to do something to fix prime time so Toonami can have a better lead in.

Back in the ASA and early Toonami revival days, Bleach used to suffer when AS would get cheap and run low performers as the lead in . I think I figured out why this happened: The OG Teen Titans movie Trouble in Tokyo from 2006 on CN led-in to Adult Swim's Dragon Ball Super power hour. Now THAT'S smart scheduling! This Saturday it's replaced by the Lego Movie, but a projection for 10/28 has OG Teen Titans in that timeslot for an hour on CN before the DBS power hour on [as].

brianycpht Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 I thought it explained my vitriol against Toonami sometimes. Guess not. Someone get me a tiny violin. No that summed it up quite nicely. I was just joking with you to be honest,but I can see how entertainment is evolving. Look at “Stranger Things”, which became a huge hit without ever airing on TV. I constantly hear anime fans in bookstores and places where merchandise is sold talking about what shows they are watching and never once do I hear “Toonami”. But Toonami is never going to be the end all place for anime. It’s merely a gateway and eventually will hopefully produce their own stuff in addition to having exclusive pickups. There are more outlets for anime, Toonami will just merely be one of those venues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
