3ngag3 Posted October 14, 2020 Posted October 14, 2020 (edited) The missing spot next to Dandy is supposed to be Tenchi Muyo classic apparently. And Kai looks like the only one that gets a pass into the next round seeing as it has no opponent. Edited October 14, 2020 by 3ngag3 Quote

Expand It's Toonami on [as] only, so no ACTN shows. Deadman and Ghoul are on the bracket, they're just hard to spot. FMA's also on there, but it's Brotherhood only.

Chapinator_X Posted October 14, 2020 Posted October 14, 2020 I bet they’re hoping for AoT, all Dragon Balls, all Narutos, Hero Academia, Bleach, and Black Clover to be the block that wins. But if Pop Team Epic is able to win against Dragon Ball Kai, I’ll take a selfie in a gaudy oversized anime shirt. Quote

CountFrylock Posted November 1, 2020 Author Posted November 1, 2020 the final four are bebop MHA Demon slayer and dbz kai 1 Quote

CountFrylock Posted November 2, 2020 Author Posted November 2, 2020 okay so I'm hearing that apparently it's not DBZ Kai that's in the final four but the original DBZ..... is notalgia really so strong that the best two shows toonami ever aired are DBZ Classic And Bebop? Quote

Sketch Posted November 4, 2020 Posted November 4, 2020 So it comes down to Bebop vs DBZ. As I said on the stream, I see Bebop taking it. Bebop has powered through Attack on Titan, One-Punch Man, Hunter x Hunter and even My Hero Academia. So it can probably beat DBZ as well. DBZ almost lost to JoJo and only won by 2 votes. In the end I only got about 34 correct. I should have had a lot more faith in HxH when it went up against DBS and should have believed Dr. Stone could beat SAO. Well it's been fun. Quote
CountFrylock Posted November 4, 2020 Author Posted November 4, 2020 i didn't think bebop would get into the finals but i guess nostalgia's one hell of a drug Quote

Now DBZ is another story... but it's DBZ. 2 Quote
OwlChemist81 Posted November 7, 2020 Posted November 7, 2020 I think they just lost the rights to DBZ Kai. If the original DBZ wins, will they REALLY pick that up just to make the marathon? Probably wouldn't be a horrible replacement for Family Guy next year! Quote
CountFrylock Posted November 8, 2020 Author Posted November 8, 2020 now that it's over do you agree with the results of cowboy bebop as the best show toonami's aired? Quote
PokeNirvash Posted November 8, 2020 Posted November 8, 2020 (edited) Even as one who thinks Cowboy Bebop being the #1 greatest anime of all time is an overstated plebeian opinion, I think it deserved this win and unofficial designation. Edited November 8, 2020 by PokeNirvash Quote

Expand I'd say it's between Bebop and FLCL Classic for the best overall executed series to have aired on Toonami thus far. I don't think anything is "perfect" but those two come pretty dang close. 2 Quote
ben0119 Posted November 8, 2020 Posted November 8, 2020 Bebop is one of the best animes ever but it was on ASA to begin with. That is where most people found it. The reruns done years later on Toonami (after years of reruns on ASA already,) are practically irrelevant. So I don't really consider it a Toonami show regardless of the master tapes resting on Demarco's night stand every night he goes to sleep. Quote

So were Paranoia Agent, Champloo, FLCL, GITS, Eureka Seven, Trigun, Inuyasha, Fullmetal Alchemist, Bleach, and probably more that I don't remember off the top of my head. If it aired on Toonami, and multiple times at that, why wouldn't it count? Quote
Sketch Posted November 10, 2020 Posted November 10, 2020 Bebop has reran on Toonami numerous times but much like Batman: TAS back in the day, it is a fantastic show that just happened to air on Toonami for a while but isn’t particularly known for being a Toonami show. I have no issue with either being considered the best Toonami show but at the same time it’s hard for me to think of them as Toonami shows. At the very least I don’t see either as significant shows for Toonami the way DBZ, Gundam Wing, Sailor Moon, Naruto and Attack on Titan are. Bebop is undeniably the most important show for ASA along with InuYasha, FLCL, FMA, Big O and GITS. And it’s becoming more and more common for people to refer to ASA as Toonami. And that’s kind of a shame for ASA and its significance to the industry in the 2000s but because Toonami replaced ASA, that timeline tends to get muddled. So it’s whatever. I’m glad Bebop beat DBZ. It’s the better show. 1 Quote

Expand One could say that Bebop was the reason [as] was created to begin with. From what I've read, Sean Akins wanted to air it on television, but couldn't air it on Toonami or even Midnight Run without running the risk of it being hacked to pieces, and Williams Street happened to be making some more adult-oriented programs in the vein of SGC2C, and so [as] was born. 1 Quote
