Sketch Posted January 7, 2022 Posted January 7, 2022 Finally! I hope they never beat this record of barely two days before broadcast. It’s a nice start with tremendous room for growth. And they’ll be filling out this schedule one new show at a time every week for a month or so. That’s very exciting! 1 2 Quote

I've heard some speculate that because AC S2 is the second show on the lineup that it means the additional shows coming in will be more obscure if AC is seen as big enough to start after the lead show do you agree or disagree?

EmpressAngel Posted January 7, 2022 Posted January 7, 2022 AC is second on the lineup because the hell else were they gonna put there? They've got a grand total of three premiering shows, it was either that or Naruto. 2 Quote

AC might end up settling into the 1am slot when it’s all said and done. Or maybe even 1:30 or 2am. It’s at 12:30 and 1am now because it sort of has to be. 1 Quote
Jman Posted January 7, 2022 Posted January 7, 2022 Not gonna lie, I would have put the Bebop’s first, and made more Netflix jokes. Guess Naruto pulls better demos. 1 Quote
PokeNirvash Posted January 7, 2022 Posted January 7, 2022 Plus they're network premieres that haven't aired tens of times before. 1 Quote
OwlChemist81 Posted January 7, 2022 Posted January 7, 2022 Interesting that the reruns from last year Fena: Pirate Princess and Dragon Ball Super aren't being sustained. At least we're back to 6 premieres, even if 3 of them are Naruto Shippudens! And Bebop hasn't been on in so long, it might as well be new! Quote
Blatch Posted January 7, 2022 Posted January 7, 2022 Finally. My faith in this block has been restored. 😊 The January 8 schedule is LOL, but what are you gonna do? At least Naruto, which has been neglected and shunted to the back for far too long, finally gets to air multiple premieres. They should've been doing this earlier. Either way, really looking forward to this rapid influx of premieres. Quote
MasqueradeOverture Posted January 7, 2022 Posted January 7, 2022 Oh wow no Dragon Ball for the first time since I converted to nihilism. Maybe I'll shave my balls to celebrate/mourn. 5 Quote
DBAss Posted January 7, 2022 Posted January 7, 2022 At this rate I wouldn't be surprised if in the next couple of years Toonami gets cancelled again. That line up is God awful. 1 1 Quote

Ass tends to lose quality after 25 years, which (though it was in a coma for almost 4 of them) is how old Toonami will be this year! Edited January 7, 2022 by OwlChemist81 2 Quote
MasqueradeOverture Posted January 7, 2022 Posted January 7, 2022 Toonami is like cars or women, they lose value over time. Quote
CountFrylock Posted January 7, 2022 Author Posted January 7, 2022 so bebop is continuing from the marathon contrary to what the adultswim website schedule says Quote
Ginguy Posted January 7, 2022 Posted January 7, 2022 It's gonna be BRBL followed by Ass class x 2 and then Queen's Blade, cause DeMarco has just given up at this point. 😝 1 Quote

I watched all six episodes I planned on recording this morning in the hopes that one would show up somewhere. This is what DeMarco wanted to do when the block started. He said he wanted people to go in blind and tune in out of sheer curiosity, and to avoid folks going to streamers to watch the shows instead. 2 1 Quote
PokeNirvash Posted January 9, 2022 Posted January 9, 2022 And trying that got us an executive-mandated early announcement for Deadman Wonderland and Casshern Sins the Tuesday before Toonami's return. And with the lack of news now, after a whole evening's worth of block, the January 15th premiere may just wind up beating their record. Quote

It’s totally understandable if they could not do the promo in time to air it yesterday but I really hope they don’t make us wait till Thursday night to confirm the next schedule. I don’t want to have to keep recording a 4.5 hour of American Dad. 2 2 Quote

It was actually the week before the week Toonami debuted, the 16th IIRC. Quote
PokeNirvash Posted January 9, 2022 Posted January 9, 2022 No, I distinctly remember it being less than a week before the 25th. https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2012-05-21/adult-swim-toonami-block-to-air-casshern-sins-deadman-wonderland Quote
Blatch Posted January 10, 2022 Posted January 10, 2022 Just throwing up an announcement for a new Toonami show is almost unprecedented. I was hoping for another one of those while watching Black Lotus yesterday, but I'm not bad it didn't happen, and I maybe don't blame the crew for not wanting to do it back-to-back weeks. Quote
