Bookend47 Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Tbh I'm happy about this decision, Demarco made the decision everyone thought would be impossible for him and we get a good hatewatch show out of it. Win-win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnimationFan14 Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Being that I am still a big One Piece fan this news would have bummed me out no matter what the replacement would have been Well it was great fun while it lasted See you space Straw Hats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBZ4ever Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Tokyo Ghoul huh? Maybe the worst show I've heard about them airing since Akame ga Kill Yeah if they had to replace One Piece they could have picked something better for sure. The whole second season is filler. The whole thing is also very highly censored when I have seen much worse things not censored in anime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole thing is also very highly censored when I have seen much worse things not censored in anime. DeMarco has stated on Twitter that it will, in fact, be completely uncut. And let's be honest here. Did anyone really think it was going to be censored on Toonami after HELLSING? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBZ4ever Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 So it will be uncut? The show is still sadly very meh and the second season is just awful. Wish we could have gotten Kekkai Sensen or Mob Psycho or My Hero Academia. The only good news from this is that I won't be watching as late now. I can skip the last three shows(Not counting GITS). May tune in for GITS after those 3 though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatch Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 If you mean like Bebop, my contention was always it was overplayed. Which is why I bought the box set. I'm thinking closer to Samurai Jack. I saw your posts on the old Lithium boards from when it was being added to Toonami, and while you weren't too happy about it, the trademark venomous rage espoused didn't come until after RanIsa came in and started annoyingly praising the series at every available opportunity. Basically, that situation, but with Moose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daos Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 I made it through about 8 episodes of Tokyo Ghoul before I had to call it quits. It sucks. Only the hype made me sit through that many episodes. So how does it feel Jman, you are victorious after a long battle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatch Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 i guess this cements the bad luck of one piece forever I wouldn't say close to four years' worth of One Piece airing on Toonami is bad luck. DeMarco and company made this show last for as long as they could, and we should all be grateful for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top Gun Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Well this is shitty. I mean I held no illusions that the run would continue indefinitely, but I figured we'd at least get through Marineford. Not getting to see Sabaody and Impel Down is a bitter pill. (No Keimi? Or The Punch? Or goddamn Hancock? ) I know its ratings weren't exactly setting the world on fire, but you wouldn't think they'd really need to for something airing at the tail end of the block. I guess it got too cost-prohibitive for DeMarco to keep grabbing new seasons. Four years is better than nothing, and yeah I have probably like 100 episodes ahead on DVD, but it's far more satisfying to get the dub in HD with all of the usual block trappings. The worst part, if you'll excuse the prejudgement, is that what we're getting instead just screams Hot Topic edgelord bullshit. Didn't we already suffer through enough of that with how fuckawful Akame was? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blatch Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 The thing that surprises me about Tokyo Ghoul is that I figured it was a show they'd get when it was popular. I thought the ship had sailed for it after... eh, about the end of 2015, so I guess airing a little over a year later in the back half of the night is a fitting treatment. But yeah, if it's as good of a hatewatch as SAO, I suppose I don't mind it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OwlChemist81 Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Oh well, I had hoped we'd still be sailing in the Thousand Sunny for a while now. I guess not. So it looks like at least for now [as] Toonami will only air seasons 4-6 of One Piece. Believe it or not, we're ONLY at the end of Season 6. I will probably start a "One Piece A Day" thread on 3/19/17. Can still watch TONS of episodes on FUNimation NOW! Well, seasons 7 and 8 anyway! I for one want to keep it going beyond Toonami, because thanks to them showing 4-6 I'm intrigued! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenigundam Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 It's surprising because One Piece has been a mainstay on Toonami since 2005 notwithstanding the first year that Toonami was brought back from cancellation, and it was airing in a graveyard slot anyway, so it really didn't even need good ratings. I wonder why they did it. There must have been a lot of complaints about the plot going nowhere or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The1gairon Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Announced today during Toonami Pre-Flight at 8 PM. I go here 3 hours later to find it already has 5 pages! Brings a great feeling back. ... so obviously I am sad, but come on. It has 700+ episodes with around 500 or so dubbed. You couldn't expect Toonami to air ALL of them! I just wish this wasn't such a sudden announcement! At least now, my memories of those OP haters who kept frequenting the old board are now finally laid to rest. Now I know NOTHING. About Tokyo Ghoul. I never followed Funimaiton's dub of it, I never tuned in for either seasons in Japanese months before than. So this will be interesting for me. I just hope they don't air it at 2:30 PM when they don't get good ratings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PokeNirvash Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Well... Well well well. This was certainly unexpected. Sucks that we won't get to see One Piece beyond Thriller Bark, but if they had to pull it off the schedule, temporarily or permanently, at any spot, they couldn't have picked a better place. Ending the Toonami Swim run with Brook settling into the crew seems like as good a send-off as any. At least, until they decide to revisit the show somewhere down the line. I still have hope, even if you all don't. As for Tokyo Ghoul, I'll approach it the same way I did Akame ga Kill: fuck your negative opinions, I'm gonna enjoy this and you aren't gonna stop me.
