For Pete's sake. Just say "Production IG" in your headline! An original anime with no previously established franchise or fanbase is always a huge risk, and I look forward to see if it's worthy of the hype. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jman Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 I guess they decided to fight fire with fire. With less of a budget and stricter programming standards. Hey everyone! Remember IGPX? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PokeNirvash Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Even if they were planning on doing an IGPX prequel/sequel, I'd rather it go to P.A. Works. Over half the episodes were outsourced to them, after all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jman Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 (edited) My point was that the last time Toonami tried this, at the arguable height of their influence on the anime industry and viewing public, it flopped harder than the Windows Phone. This in turn is reactionary, and using an original IP, so I am skeptical. Edited June 1, 2018 by Jman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blatch Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Well, Samurai Jack S5 was successful because so many people wanted it, and I expect the center to hold with the new FLCL seasons as well. When it comes to completely new productions, not all of them are going to be winners, but I hope Toonami's decreased reliance on ratings means that a show that would normally be an abject failure can still make money.

The1gairon Posted June 1, 2018 Author Share Posted June 1, 2018 Samurai Jack wasn't a Toonami original though. So far the world has yet to see a ratings-golden, original, Toonami-funded anime, and I am optimistic that one exists and waiting to be unearthed.

Touché. Personally, I do think another Cowboy Bebop show could work, if it becomes more of an anthology series like with the FLCL sequels. They could never get away with a direct sequel, of course, but I'm sure any new series would have cameos from Jet, Faye, Edward, Ein, and all our favorites.

ben0119 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 (edited) I wasn't expecting this so soon. Though it's worth noting that Demarco said they are working on 2 anime series and an American show, but doesn't guarantee they will go anywhere. I don't see where he actually states one of the series will be under Production I.G., unless I'm missing something. He says they're taking trips to Japan and visiting all the studios. In any case, nothing seems to be set in stone right now. Stop guessing known properties, you guys, this is supposed to be something new (thank god.) On that article it says they are streaming FLCL Progressive on their website in Japanese with English subtitles, as well. Is that the only way to watch that version? No Japanese TV airing? This really is being made for the U.S. It's a very unusual situation. Edited June 3, 2018 by ben0119 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jman Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 It being a new property is why I bought up IGPX. Which when you think about it is a really American approach to anime. ”More of these things that are cool.” ”Have them actually kiss dammit!” Shame the actual meat was so boring.

Plus they actually have less content restrictions now as we've seen with them now being able to air stuff more western-style anime like Black Lagoon and Hellsing. Not to say they'll do something like that but just as an example of the less restrictions compared to when they were developing IGPX I think.

This really is being made for the U.S. It's a very unusual situation. It's getting a THEATRICAL release in Japan. That's why they decided to delay our subtitled editions (with the exception of course of FLCL Alternative Episode 1, which already aired on Toonami). They believe reverse importation of a version with subtitles would harm the Japanese raw version movie screenings.
