PokeNirvash Posted June 5 Posted June 5 Honestly, I'm surprised it took an hour or two for the news to reach this place. But yeah, that lack of acquisitions in the first quarter is looking pretty justified now. 2 3 Quote
Sketch Posted June 5 Posted June 5 Should have happened back in January but the dub just ended so this is fine. 5 cable premieres including 1 world premiere and one show that’s only on Hulu, not too shabby. 1 Quote
Toonamiguy321 Posted June 5 Posted June 5 Well, Toonami news usually hits at a specific time Friday afternoon, so I’d assume not many were checking the Facebook today. Anyway, if there was any lingering doubts about the budget being blown for the year, those should be put to rest. I have to wonder though, why start this now? If they would have waited till July, it could have just taken midnight where it’s likely going regardless when Lazarus ends. They stalled for nearly 6 months straight, so I don’t see why this couldnt have waited. Especially after all those times they stalled the schedule to prevent show timeslot shifts. Bleach is probably going right back to 12:30 in July. If the issue was OP running out of episodes, they easily could have put Naruto on double duty for a few weeks. On the topic of Naruto, we are now beyond a reasonable window of expecting the Rewind shows to expire, so it seems those are gonna hang around and shit up the schedule for a full run. Unfortunate. My long standing criticism of them sacrificing the entire block just to roll out the red carpet for Dragonball mediocrity remains unphased. Quote
katt_goddess Posted June 5 Posted June 5 Who has two thumbs and called both Bleach and Daima? <-- This dumbass. Back in Jan : "Dr. Stone is a high possibility at this time. Wildhorse but still potential - Bleach : 1000 year blood war. Another wildhorse without as much potential but it's ending soon on the other spots so... - Dragon Ball Daima Hilarious pick-up that I wish they would just for the troll effect - How Heavy Are the Dumbbells You Lift? Budget Classic that they might do late-night as another long runner ala Dragon Ball - YuYu Hakusho." ... Come on "Dumbbells'! Do eet! 4 1 Quote
Mr. Idea Box Posted June 5 Posted June 5 On the positive side, the premieres, whether World or Toonami, are surprisingly loaded for June 2025. And a Toonami schedule that has Dragon Ball, Bleach, Naruto, and Sailor Moon is definitely going to get news coverage. On the negative side, unless Midnight's already booked, I do agree that Dragon Ball Daima should've been saved for July. Guess this means Superman's less likely for summer. Either way, I'd take Dragon Ball Daima over subbed Lazarus if it meant One Piece gets shrunk to a half-hour. 1 Quote
Jman Posted June 5 Posted June 5 Well now it all makes sense. I figured once Netflix got it that was it, but DeMarco must have negotiated something. Quote

Only problem with dumbbell is that it’s a spinoff of a Netflix exclusive…that ended up with Crunchyroll. Go figure. Quote

Guess this means Superman's less likely for summer. I don’t think there has been a peep about Superman besides its initial confirmation of getting new seasons. Wasn’t really realistic to expect that in summer. I still stand by the team working on it anticipating its cancellation and wrapping up S2 in a mostly conclusive way. So they probably have a lot of legwork still to do. Quote
Jman Posted June 6 Posted June 6 They probably don’t want MAWS near TV until the movie’s out of theaters. Quote

It may be a spin-off but I enjoyed the crap out of it without ever actually reading or seeing Kengan Ashura. I think it stands alone just fine as a weird info-comedy that needs to spread it's horrible wings out on to the unsuspecting populace. I want to see horrible weird alien muscle-dudes on merch just for the hell of it. Quote
