PokeNirvash Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 (edited) Watching directly on the site with UBlock Origin activated, though I only ever used that method for Flowers of Evil. Password-sharing is what I use to watch stuff off my sister's Netflix account. (Until they lock me out for using the service from an 80+ mile distance, that is.)

I still haven't watched season 2. But there's really no point in waiting. Maybe I will watch it at some point on my own time, if I remember.

I'm still stubbornly holding on to my Funimation Now account. I'm not happy about this merger at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sketch Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 It's always been a bit puzzling why Crunchyroll seemingly doesn't want to lend shows to Toonami. The people that founded Crunchyroll and various staff have sung the praises of Toonami but it looks more and more like Crunchyroll wouldn't have partnered with Toonami if not for AT&T buying Time Warner. Time Warner was notorious for its lack of synergy, so while it made no freak'n sense that Warner's DC content was out of Adult Swim's reach it became the expectation when DeMarco made it clear they couldn't afford Young Justice or older DC series. Likewise, Crunchyroll even under WarnerMedia didn't want to do Toonami a solid unless it was a co-production that both Adult Swim and Crunchyroll helped fund. But it's somehow an entirely different story in Latin America where Crunchyroll continues to provide programming for the small nightly Toonami block over there. On the WarnerMedia side they wanted to make use of the Crunchyroll catalog for HBO Max and that may or may not have kept those shows off of Toonami. Warner could have really done Toonami a solid and let them run Harley Quinn season 2 instead of Primal reruns but that clearly didn't happen. It's not as if FUNimation hasn't played hard ball from time to time but I was really hoping that the merger with Crunchyroll would mean more CR titles would be on the table. Thus far it looks like the opposite has occurred. However, that might not be the sole or even primary reason for the drought in new content right now. The real issue could very well be Toonami's acquisition budget getting even tighter but on the other hand, I don't think they would have turned to double One Piece if money was the primary reason why they couldn't get shows from the FUNimation catalog right now. Whether its a lack of budget or a lack of viable options, things aren't looking great right now. All that said, I do think they will replace Ass Class with new content in June but I don't think they'll add more than 2 or 3 more acquisitions this year. And regarding Mob, I think I'll finally stop putting off watching season 2. I hear it's better than the first season but up until now I've lacked the motivation to watch it at my leisure because I didn't watch the simulcast when it was the talk of the town. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlChemist81 Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Maybe Harley Quinn Season 2 was too hot for Midnight? Then again, Season 1 DID began at 10:30 when it marathonned. If they ever DO get to make HQ a mainstay on the block, it should not start with Season 2, but Season 1 episode 13. It's a travesty that Toonami STILL hasn't gotten to air that, nor the last 2 episodes of Ballmastrz 9009! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You still think graphic violence is that much of a concern to Turner S&P? We managed to air Hellsing Ultimate, for fuck's sake, I doubt Chainsaw Man's adaptation will be as explicit with its violence, especially with it being the exact opposite of an OVA. Unless you're talking about the weirdly sexual stuff, in which case I totally understand. Edited May 17, 2022 by PokeNirvash 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
