CountFrylock Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 it's no secret that the ad-space for the toonami time-slots aren't really that valuable so we tend to get random commercials like those "Truth" anti-vape ads or Kay Jewelers maybe you just get a weird adult swim short segment when there's ads to air(due to that space remaining vacant with no one showing interest) so what are the weirdest ads You've seen run currently on toonami that just seem out of place and ill fitting for the block?

The1gairon Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 I think we see those commercials because they know teens and college students are watching it, not because they're cheap timeslots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PokeNirvash Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 (edited) Eh, outside of the one night where they just kept airing them, Hot Pockets ads aren't exactly "random", since they've been broadcast on the block consistently for years. Those Ben 10 toy commercials that aired every night during Eureka seveN reruns, on the other hand? Those were straight outta left field.

Jman Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 I still remember back in the day one ASA night had nothing but ads for gum. That was back when [adult swim] couldn’t advertise booze. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chapinator_X Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Overall, the weirder ads I’ve seen on here are the ones for local tech institutes, online schools, and that one Bleach action figure commercial where they got JYB to promote an Ichigo figure, but the latter one was from ages ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
