OwlChemist81 Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 (edited) No question about it, Toonami's ratings haven't necessarily been setting the world on fire lately, but one area in which it HAD gotten stronger in December is trending on Twitter in the U.S.! First a look back at the wasteland that was the first 2 months of 4Q 2018: October and November... Yes, I'm afraid that's right. Hunter x Hunter is the only Toonami show that trended in the U.S. in October and absolutely NO Toonami shows trended in the U.S. ALL MONTH in November. But in the first 3 weeks of December, a curious thing happened: All 3 weeks in December had MULTIPLE shows Trending on Twitter in the U.S., and BOTH episodes of hot new sports-action show Megalo Box trended! Only time will tell if this trend will continue into the marathons and beyond into 2019 with the later block...

OwlChemist81 Posted January 8, 2019 Author Share Posted January 8, 2019 (edited) I didn't see anything trending during the marathons, but we DID get some shows trending last week. #Megalobox is now 3 for 3 and brought along favorites #BlackClover & #HunterXHunter, despite their new timeslots in the 2 AM hour! The breakdown: Toonami/#Toonami [#12] #MegaloBox [#9] #BlackClover [#14] #HunterXHunter [#10] Edited January 15, 2019 by OwlChemist81 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatch Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Cool stuff. I ended up zoning out on the trending game after the guy who makes those posts for Toonami Faithful blocked me for joking about SAO, so it's nice to see that old habits don't die hard. I could complain about this being useless fluff, but really, making content ratings images for various shows is an even more pointless hobby. Also, this makes more sense than still tracking the Nielsen ratings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlChemist81 Posted January 15, 2019 Author Share Posted January 15, 2019 (edited) When we do well, we get results EARLY. And it's hard to imagine doing better than HALF the shows trending these days!! Not only that, we had 2 character trends, and Shippuden went all the way to #2!! Here's the breakdown: #Toonami [#5] #DragonBallSuper [#20] #MegaloBox [#10] #JoJosBizarreAdventure [#10] Josuke (From JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure) [#19] #BlackClover [#8] #HunterXHunter [#4] #Shippuden [#2] TenTen (From Shippuden) [#20] Not too shabby!! Oh yeah, and Megalobox is keeping its perfect streak going at 4 for 4!! Edited January 15, 2019 by OwlChemist81 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlChemist81 Posted January 27, 2019 Author Share Posted January 27, 2019 (edited) Now last week was a tougher night, but MegaloBox and Hunter x Hunter both still trended: United States Trends: #MegaloBox [#16] #HunterXHunter [#7] Good news: This week (1/26/19), I've seen multiple shows trending, including a 6th Trend for MegaloBox, keeping its perfect streak going!! I'll post the breakdown when it's available! Edited January 27, 2019 by OwlChemist81 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatch Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Related to this, has anyone else seen that trends related to K-pop show up in the trending bar ridiculously often? I guess it's really popular here, to the point of getting huge displays in my local comic book stores and such. But my main point is, how have they managed to game the system so they can show up in the top 10 constantly? That was happening with Toonami for a while and then abruptly stopped, which might be due to an algorithm change. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlChemist81 Posted February 3, 2019 Author Share Posted February 3, 2019 (edited) I've never noticed it. Another kick-ass trending night last week to close out the month of January! http://toonamifaithful.com/toonami-trending-rundown-for-january-26-27-2019/ United States Trends: #Toonami [#8] #MobPsycho100 [#7] #MegaloBox [#7] #JoJosBizarreAdventure [#7] Koichi (From JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure) [#8] Yukako (From JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure) [#17] #BlackClover [#9] #HunterXHunter [#4] #Shippuden [#6] And it hasn't been compiled yet, but it looks like the first Toonami block of February also did well!

OwlChemist81 Posted February 26, 2019 Author Share Posted February 26, 2019 (edited) You may think you've seen a good night for trending, but you ain't seen NOTHING yet: http://toonamifaithful.com/toonami-trending-rundown-for-february-23-24-2019/ Get all that? No?? Well, here's the breakdown: United States Trends: #Toonami [#4] Krillin (From Dragon Ball Super) [#9] #Boruto [#8] Sarada (From Boruto) [#14] #MegaloBox [#6] #JoJosBizarreAdventure [#6] Yoshikage Kira (From JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure) [#17] #BlackClover [#4] #HunterXHunter [#2] Pitou (From Hunter x Hunter) [#7] #Shippuden [#5] That episode of Hunter x Hunter DESERVED to kick ass in trending, and it DID!! This is the 2nd time a Toonami show has reached the #2 trend this year; the other time was with Shippuden back on 1/12-1/13/19! Also, if you're keeping score at home, or if you just scroll up, you may notice that #HunterXHunter has trended for an astounding ELEVEN weeks in a row now! Can it keep its momentum going? Watch it at 2:30 AM this Saturday night on Toonami and find out next week!! Edited February 26, 2019 by OwlChemist81 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlChemist81 Posted March 5, 2019 Author Share Posted March 5, 2019 (edited) Well, all good things come to an end. Last Saturday night, UFC 235 happened, and its overwhelming media buzz pretty much brought Toonami's momentum to a standstill, BUT some shows still trended: http://toonamifaithful.com/toonami-trending-rundown-for-march-2-3-2019/ United States Trends: #Toonami [#10] #MegaloBox [#11] #JoJosBizarreAdventure [#10] So, #HunterXHunter's trending streak finally comes to an end. It lasted 11 weeks. But at least that's 9 rounds out of 10 that #MegaloBox has trended in the U.S.! And a bot also reported that #DragonBallSuper and #SwordArtOnline trended in the U.S., but no screencaps were taken.

OwlChemist81 Posted March 12, 2019 Author Share Posted March 12, 2019 Another tough night, but a bit better than last week, and Hunter X Hunter got its mojo back: http://toonamifaithful.com/toonami-trending-rundown-for-march-9-10-2019/ Notice a slightly different format this week: now "Trending With" shows will be displayed, what I will in the spirit of basketball call "assist" trends from now on, but they will not be displayed in bold (at least not in my breakdown). United States Trends: Toonami/#Toonami [#8] #SwordArtOnline [Trended with #Toonami and #MegaloBox] #SwordArtOnlineAlicization [Trended with #Toonami and #MegaloBox] #MegaloBox [#8] #JoJosBizarreAdventure [#8] #HunterXHunter [#8] #Shippuden [Trended with #Toonami #JoJosBizarreHunter and #HunterXHunter] Crazy 8's were the theme this week, though JoJo has extended its streak, oddly enough, to week 7. And #MegaloBox has now trended 4 weeks in a row, though to be fair, it took a break 5 weeks before that, though it also missed the mark the previous week. And finally, Hunter X Hunter is back in trending! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlChemist81 Posted March 20, 2019 Author Share Posted March 20, 2019 (edited) You gotta see this week's trending report, provided by Toonami Faithful; it's quite a hoot! http://toonamifaithful.com/toonami-trending-rundown-for-march-16-17-2019/ United States Trends: #Toonami [#3] #DragonBallSuper [#11] #Boruto [Trended with #Toonami] #SwordArtOnline [Trended with #Toonami] #SwordArtOnlineAlicization [Trended with #Toonami] #MegaloBox [Trended with #Toonami] #JoJosBizarreAdventure [#10] #BlackClover [#10] #HunterXHunter [#9] #Shippuden [Trended with #Toonami] MegaloBox fails to place in trending for the 2nd time in its run, though it did get an "assist." Dragon Ball Super makes a rare-ish appearance in trending this week as well, though I wonder if this was more due to rumors of new episodes? JoJo is the only show which has a sizable streak, this time in its 8th week! Edited March 20, 2019 by OwlChemist81 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginguy Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Twitter is a dumpster fire. Jack Dorsey is a hypocrite and ripped off a witch who hexed him. (seriously) Why it is viewed as anything worth while by advertisers is beyond me, but go team I guess since Toonami shows trend well.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OwlChemist81 Posted April 3, 2019 Author Share Posted April 3, 2019 (edited) The "HOLY SH!T" factor of last week's episode of Black Clover really got viewers talking about it! http://toonamifaithful.com/toonami-trending-rundown-for-march-30-31-2019/ Yeah, this graphic got the dates wrong, but the results, though sparse, are solid! That's 3 in a row for Black Clover, and 4 in a row for Hunter x Hunter. Plus Kirito had a character trend, and there were also a few assists: United States Trends: Toonami/#Toonami [#4] #DragonBallSuper [Trending with #BlackClover and #HunterXHunter] #SwordArtOnline [Trending with #Toonami and #BlackClover] #SwordArtOnlineAlicization [Trending with #Toonami] Kirito (From Sword Art Online) [#17] #BlackClover [#6] #HunterXHunter [#4] #Shippuden [Trending with #Toonami and #HunterXHunter] Edited April 3, 2019 by OwlChemist81 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
