Predict Toonami in 2025

[Mr. Idea Box]

Look on the bright side. Since the Midnight slot is almost always going to be something Williams Street has a direct hand in, Primal and Rooster Fighter have 2026 pretty much booked in that timeslot for the first half of the year.

Filling in the summer and fall seasons, though? That might be trickier.

Personally, I wouldn't mind if an entire hour was cut after October, given the playbook so far.

Im curious why they created a slot by taking off Sailor Moon

We’ll see

It’s probably within striking distance of its expiration and they are just dealing with it now, while also relocating Naruto into the easiest slot to delete it as well soon.

Not really a bright side. Primal will once again not premier on the block, so that’s 10 weeks of a rerun lead. Then we get Rooster Fighter which thus far, looks like visual dogshit.

We can only assume they are stalling for something now. They wouldn’t waste a Dragonball for nothing 

 

Also RIP Sailor Moon

I'm actually not surprised Sailor Moon bit the dust. It seems there may have been some actual contract renegotiation taking place when they doubled it up in the 5 PM timeslot on Toonami Rewind last year, since a year ago on 7/19/24 is exactly when that happened! That 1-year deal ended, so it's gone. It also might be tied to Bleach TYBW somehow since they're both Viz.

Maybe Naruto is sunsetting soon too, but I would think Ninja Kamui's sub would have needed to start the same week. Maybe it's too early, or maybe eventually it will be paired-up with Housing Complex C's sub closer to Halloween?
