Even repeats I've watched just for that and I also kind of think it's one of the most fun ways to watch and more enjoy some of the long runners without burning out thanks to both the pacing and seeing the posts during them. Totally agree. The way we watch shows is so different nowadays. The idea of binge watching was unheard of not so long ago. I can still appreciate stretching a show out and only watching 1 ep per week. Plus having everyone's comments and input adds a really cool layer to watching. Edited December 30, 2018 by saito34 Quote

Yeah, the last few have been quite jumpy in terms of how much fun you could get out of them. If we'd been in cannon it would have been more exciting between MHA and Boruto. Quote

Plus the good old watching a show you might have passed on or just kept delaying towards watching when you controlled it but then it's on Toonami so you watch it, too. Like I don't know when I would have finally gotten around to the rest of Megalobox. Or how much longer it would have taken to watch some of the long runners in chunks to get as deep as we are into them. Like the great threads for HxH, Jojo, etc. Edited December 30, 2018 by DangerMouse Quote

Yeah generally I'm pretty fine with fun/exciting filler, but exactly it kinda felt like we're in the midst of going from a fun one to something really bland, then a good one to the ghost ship. That kind of thing. Edited December 30, 2018 by DangerMouse Quote

I'm definitely loyal to Toonami in that respect. BTW check out the facebook page for some good info/discussion. I'm not on facebook much anymore, but there's an active Toonami fan base there. Sometimes it's good to know we're not the only people still enjoying Toonami these days. Edited December 30, 2018 by saito34 1 Quote

Yeah, also stuff like I know the threads made Black Clover more fun during the slow start. Cool. Yeah, I'm not really on Facebook either. It's already time consuming enough with just a couple of forums lol. Edited December 30, 2018 by DangerMouse Quote

I'm virtually off of it, but I was surprised at how big and active the Toonami page is. 1 Quote
