CountFrylock Posted May 13, 2023 Share Posted May 13, 2023 At this point it just feels like one piece is a filler show on the block but one that's very confusing because it's never gone back to double episodes even when the schedule has been as lackluster as it is now and it really needs more than a single episode with how crappy it's pacing is 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone have a set date for that? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toonamiguy321 Posted May 13, 2023 Share Posted May 13, 2023 It’s been a filler show since the day it came back. They just aren’t using it to fill as much time now. 21 minutes ago, Jman said: It’s rumored once this arc is over we’ll find out what their next course of action is for the show.

I believe 13 more weeks, not accounting for marathon delays So accounting for a few marathons, the show will end right around the end of August, when One Piece Live Action is rumored to debut. That puts the show in quite a unique position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CountFrylock Posted May 13, 2023 Author Share Posted May 13, 2023 I Can't really see one piece leaving the block again not anytime soon anyways because Toei still seems to care a lot about american cable tv hence why One Piece was able to return 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sketch Posted May 13, 2023 Share Posted May 13, 2023 It's glorified filler that they keep on because they like it. Some people say Toonami got 150 episodes initially but I can't find a source for that at all. That said, I don't think they only acquired up to the end of Punk Hazard but its hard to say at this point. But what about this other rumor Jman? Where'd that come from?

If we stay at one episode per week, by the time we finish Shippuden, we won’t even be halfway through Dressrosa. 2 hours ago, Sketch said: It's glorified filler that they keep on because they like it.

I find that hard to believe. 150 episode is a gigantic risk. We know from Boruto that they got 52 episodes, I think it’s safe to assume they did the same with OP, or they just bought entire arc sized chunks as a trial run. Now the incoming issue they have is Dressrosa is 2x the size, so if they did buy by the arc, that might make them a little nervous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like they have anything better to use in that time slot and more reruns wouldn't be a good look for the block right now 33 minutes ago, Sketch said: Yeah it's a slog.

If they don’t have a 2 and half year plan for Toonami, it doesn’t make much sense to start Dressrosa. If they do, it will stay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
