Blatch Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 And Primal leads off, as it should. Neat that they're announcing this somewhat ahead of time. Hopefully they follow suit with the next new show. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OwlChemist81 Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 I have an odd theory about this one: what if the plan is to run 1-6 on FRIDAY from 12-3 AM and then finish the marathon with 7-13 during Toonami? That would be neat to see! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatch Posted June 14, 2022 Author Share Posted June 14, 2022 Ooh, that's actually a good idea. [as] should be doing Friday marathons for action shows, at least for what they own. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jman Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 (edited) They really want me to assume a Season 2 is coming. Shenmue was the best of the Crunchyroll originals and it wasn’t even close (owning to how the rest ranged from mediocre to wretched), but the line is done. The legal tangles to get the show proper already sound like a headache. Edited June 15, 2022 by Jman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sketch Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 It’s the first 7 episodes. How very pointless. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah and this will be the third time they've aired those episodes so as you said it just seems completely pointless to do this.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatch Posted June 18, 2022 Author Share Posted June 18, 2022 Marathons don't have to mean anything. In fact, in this case it might be better if they don't bother. Had they chosen to air the second half of the series, then people could DVR it and watch the episodes right away, leaving no point for the rest of the rerun.

PokeNirvash Posted June 19, 2022 Share Posted June 19, 2022 Shippuden's over eight years due for a marathon, if not for the fact that we're back in Filler Hell, I'd say run reruns of it for one night! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CountFrylock Posted June 19, 2022 Share Posted June 19, 2022 i don't think we're getting a naruto marathon at this point.....One Piece Marathon Maybe but naruto marathon? Nope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatch Posted June 20, 2022 Author Share Posted June 20, 2022 Shippuden getting a marathon... well, scratch that, Shippuden getting any notable treatment on Toonami is a meme. The only promo it ever got was an [as] black-and-white bumper that basically doubled as one, since it announced the show's then-current timeslot. Heck, its bumps haven't even gotten new music since this year began, or so I've heard. Toonami could really do all the Naruto fans a solid, but it's not like they need one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
