Lupin the Third Part 4 will replace Gundam Unicorn starting June 17th. Lupin will now premiere at 2am instead of the previously stated time of 1:30am.
Adult Swim is funding two new 6 episode seasons of FLCL. Expected release 2018.
Last week we had a Jack marathon that blew out the back half of the normal lineup ratings wise. This week we are back to normal, but with the retarded idea of rerunning Jack at 11pm. Shocking to literally no one with a functioning brain, leading with an hour of reruns completely killed the ratings for the whole night, giving us some fresh record lows. Naruto gained a bit from Gundam, so let's be thankfully that shit is out next week. Let's give Demarco a round of applause for the fuck up.

>>93028012
The dead meme, like a broken clock, may be right for once.
>>93028012
>Those ratings for everything from like 1:00 onwards
Suddenly I'm more concerned.
BEBOP LIVE ACTION BAYBEEEE IT'S REEEEEEAL
So it's universally acknowledged that this would be the perfect balance of good shows and ratings boosters, yes?
>11 - New show rotation (My Hero Academia, Mob Psycho, etc)
>11:30 - Dragon Ball Super
>12 - Hunter X Hunter
>12:30 - Older show rotation (Attack on Titan, Kill la Kill, OPM, etc)
>1 - DBZ Kai
>1:30 - Naruto
>2 - Space Dandy
>2:30 - Gundam
>3-5:30 - Rerun hours (Fullmetal, Samurai Jack, shit Toonami owns, etc)
>>93028572
gee, anon, it's not like live-action anime adaptations aren't always fucking disgusting!
>>93028572
Wonder how it'll go.
Unlike most shitty live action anime adaptations, Bebop isn't really tied to Japan, so American actors can definitely work. There will obviously be comparisons to the anime, but I'm hoping that, at the very least, it could be viewed by itself as a competent series.
That said, still waiting for a live action version of GATE that cuts the LN bullshit.
>>93028572
Cant wait for demarco to shill it
>>93028595
I'm shocked you actually made the ratings worse somehow
>11 Family Guy
>11:30 Super since it doesn't appear to be a choice
>12 Kai, keep DB together plus Kai is nearing its end anyway, no sense moving it from midnight when it spent its whole life there
>12:30 NEW short show. What the fuck are you thinking putting reruns in the middle
>1 NEW short show that may be a few years old
>1:30 HxH why the fuck would this be at 12
>2 short, older/new risk title. Lupin is a good example of this, shame it's a brand new dub getting shoved at 2am though. Space Dandy is another fucking rerun
>2:30 Naruto, Gundam is cancer no one wants
>3 rotational rerun
>rest comedy reruns, AS doesn't have enough permanent reruns to sustain all those slots without airing the same things over and over
Halfway through typing this I realized you probably baited me but whatever
>>93028012
So how long until they drop Jack?
I want mecha show called Speedy Gundam
Weekly reminder tha- Oh god!
Those ratings...
They're just...
What the fucking hell were they thinking?
>>93028946
They were hoping season 5 of Jack would pull Family Guy numbers forever and ever.
>>93028946
Remember how AoT got really good ratings its first run, so they reran it out front expecting identical performance and it didn't work? They are doing that again and getting the same result, shocking to no one
ded
>>93028986
>>93029120
What is Cartoon Network/Adult Swim's issue with doing that? Do they just not learn?
>>93028946
I'll have you know that I'm actually a professional televisionologist and I have written many books on the concept of ratings and viewership. It is clear to me through my keen sense that One Piece was actually saving Toonami, rather than killing it. The only sensible solution is to air nothing but One Piece after 1am, or to rebrand Toonami as hotspot for more adult themed classics such as Hamtaro, Yo-Kai Watch, and My Little Pony.
>>93029168
They don't
>>93029168
Apparently not, which is weird since this always happens when they do this. You'd think it would sink in by now but they keep trying anyway.
>>93029175
>copying shit straight from leddit
Have some decency bud
>>93028595
>family guy
>dbz super
>teen titans go
>dbz kai
>family guy
>bebop
>family guy
>steven universe
>gundam
there, fixed toonami
>>93029572
I feel like they should remove Bebop and Gundam for more Family Guy.
>>93028816
All you did was switch out Samurai Jack for Family Guy, the rest of the Lineup is identical to what we have now and what we have now is doing awful.
>>93028012
>jack rerun starting toonami
seen this coming but hey its once a week
>sunday rolls around
>s5e2 jack starts at 8
>start panicing
>no this cant be
>s5e3 started at 8:30
>n-no
shit we getting rick and mortyied
Holy shit, I legit thought Fooly Cooly was longer than 6 episodes.
>>93030047
Are you retarded or what?
>people said we were just doomsaying about the reruns at the start of the block killing viewership
Nobody wants to tune in and sit through shit they've already watched to get to the new stuff. That goes for DBZ Kai too, really. People have a lot of nostalgia for the series but not nearly as much for the Buu saga. You could move DBZ Kai back a few spots on the block and nobody would care.
>>93030088
its been like 16 or so years since I last seen it.
>>93028012
>E3 Week finishes off with Lupin the Third part 4 premier
Looking forward to it
Wait there is another episode of Gundam left?
I know it's a meme but i think Toonami might really be finished
>>93030209
Looking forward to Lupin's wife, unf
Shame we'll never see her again
>>93028012
Why don't they air Hunter x Hunter sooner than 1:30?
>>93030267
Fucking Memerai Jack killed our block.
>>93028037
>>93028012
Holy shit, that's awful. I'd be willing to overlook or not say anything if at least the midnight hour was good, but damn. When was the last time DBZ hit this low?
>>93030265
This saturday's episode is the last one.
>>93030460
>Jack was supposed to save the block.
>It ends up killing it.
Oh the irony.
I think people need to accept that, thanks to the internet and easiness to access subs, anime can never get any ratings leverage on American television like they used to, unless it's a premiere like Space Dandy.
>>93030509
Second one meant for:>>93030407
I'll give Toonami early to mid 2018 before it gets canned.
>>93029846
It's been established that Family Guy gets the best ratings of every show that night though. Fuck, even King of the Hill is suffering through shitty ratings.
Toonami either needs some new blood or DiMarco needs to realize he can't sustain himself on long runners and reruns forever. Fuck, I could argue the same for Cartoon Network as a whole, but that's neither here or there.
>>93030694
I'd extend that feeling to [AS] in general, honestly. Between the ratings Toonami's pulling in and the fact that they've been mostly subsiding on reruns, I feel CN's going to put the block out to pasture at some point.
>>93030306
New shows take priority
>>93030790
My point is you didn't change anything at all and are acting like you "fixed" the block.
>>93030511
That was true in 2012 too but ratings only started going down the crapper recently
>>93030838
I hope they use a shotgun
>>93030306
When it was brand new it never did well enough to justify holding onto its original slot. As new shows premiered it got pushed back. They at least realized it's more popular than Gundam so it's getting some priority there, plus they don't seem to have a lot lot of faith in Lupin III which is why they're keeping HxH where it is rather than moving it back again.
The real issue is the reruns at the start of the block pushing everything else back. If you chopped off Super and SJ reruns and moved everything else up 1 hour ratings would probably improve dramatically. Put SJ and Super at the end of the block instead.
>>93030509
I don't know why it would surprise anybody. Nobody in the current "young" audience gives a fat hawaiian shit about samjack. It was a nostalgia show for the old audience. Same with the new batch of FLCL they've ordered.
Literally the same thing as all the nostalgia kickstarter games /v/ bitches about, with the same end results.
>>93031169
Jack did amazing though. It's the retarded idea reruns would work is what is doing the block in
>>93028012
We're literally at Adult Swim Action circa 2011 levels of bad with this latest round of ratings, holy fucking shit.
>>93031231
Reruns WOULD work. In the back half of the block, where they've always gone. Putting them at front is stupid.
>>93028012
>Naruto gained a bit from Gundam
Man, it just keeps doing that.
>>93031240
>make promos for Attack on Titan, the only show you're bothering to promote for the block
>air it 90 minutes into the block behind 2 reruns and 1 pseudo-rerun
>>93031275
I want sauce on this.
Reminder to everyone that Humble Bunlde has an Adult Swim Games bundle. Get eight games for twelve bucks. I personally recommend Duck Game.
> let's pay a lot of money to produce a high quality show like Samurai Jack, but only air it once
lotta great ideas from the backseat TV execs these threads produce
>>93028012
>Those ratings
>12:30 and onward
>>93031315
Can't imagine why, but the artist is koshika rina
>>93031362
They aired it twice due to the holiday weekend, and nobody said only show it once, just don't put it up front and expect people to kill themselves to watch it a third goddamn time.
>>93031362
Thing is, after the first initial watch. not many people are gonna care about it. Plus they're showing it on Sunday Nights as well. They should at least kill the Saturday night rerun and put something new there, move toonami up or something that isn't jack.
>>93031306
Seriously, it should be at 11 now if anything should.
>>93028635
The manga adaption is just as bad and JSDF wank.
>>93031357
Not feeling the $12 tier, as I already have FF2 (the main hub was too confusing).
That Sekai bundle tho
>>93033480
Which is why you only take the concept. Make it a multicultural army representing the major powers of the world.
>>93031565
Technically three times due to the Wednesday repeat as well or would it be 4 since the block repeats after 2am?
>>93034327
Episode 1 has aired six times now
>Premiere on Saturday at 11pm
>Rerun on Wednesday at 10pm
>Repeat of the Wednesday rerun at 2:30am
>Marathon airing last week (Saturday at 11pm)
>Sunday airing the following day at 8pm
>Rerun this past Saturday at 11pm
Miss her yet?
>two gundam series and this is the best thing out of it
>>93034666
I don't miss Meme la Meme.
>>93030838
I wonder what they'd replace it with?YOUR NEW FAVORITE SHOW?
>>93035785
Not a /co/ regular, what show does this meme reference?
>>93035864
Teen titans go. It was how they advertised it.
>>93035894
I should have figured, is like their only show anyway
>>93028012
>AoT loses 200k viewers from Kai
How fucked is Demarco on this? It had to cost a fuckton, especially if Funi is cooperating with Toonami and holding episodes back for marathons
>>93036452
Can't be more fucked than that Hellsing debacle he was in.
>one more week of gundam
i thought it was over already?
>>93037494
The pain never stops
>>93036608
That was the absolute low for Toonami, but this is easily the second lowest point the block has been at since coming back. We have a premier simuldub show pulling under 700k. This is really, really bad.
Is it ok to masturbate to Haruko?
debating on expanding my toonami folder in preparation for FLCL s2 and s3
>>93037804
No. But that's what makes it so good.
>>93028012
Is AoT proof of how important it is to capitalize on hype?
>>93038427
A textbook example
Ayy wanna mango?
>>93031049
Unless they're Lupin.
Good luck making it until morning.
>>93039069
I'd like to make it till morning on that cat ass
>>93038837
Yea Lupin got dicked. I don't know why they even spent the money on it if they have no faith in it
>Toonami dies without having aired this
>>93028012
Ugh, unless they get Gainax and the original crew together that made the original FLCL then I hope those sequels never get produced.
ITT: network programmers
>In the new season of FLCL, many years have passed since Naota and Haruhara Haruko shared their adventure together.
Did they retcon the entire fucking ending of FLCL?
>>93029572
>Steven Universe
>>93040429
It would have done well too.
I cant wait for the next passive aggressive nintendo review
>>93043926
Maybe if it aired sometime back in 2012-2014. If it were to air now, it'd probably be too little too late.
>>93046392
This, they missed the opportunity
>>93040471
Last word on the staff was it's an entirely new crew from Production IG. And while IG has done a lot really good anime their style isn't really FLCL's style.
>>93041744
No, they're just having Haruko move onto helping a new MC.
So how long till AS puts Toonami out of its misery?
>>93050325
what the fuck is this
>>93051544
a parody from an old forgotten show overshadowed by KLK and some video game where its not as good as its predecessor
Fanservice when
Question:
If Sailor Moon Crystal were to be announced for Toonami would Penis Chop anon still be liable?
>>93052036
No because he said he'd only cut it off if Crystal replaced Inuyasha
>>93052036
Nope, he was very specific that it was only if it replaced Inuyasha. Also Crystal will never be announced since it's on Hulu or something.
Also that was like 2 years ago, who knows if he is even still around
>>93038427
How's it doing in Japan compared to S1?
s2 when
>>93052931
Compared to its first season? God awful. It's still one of the top streamed shows of the season though
>>93054066
>>93051827
What was she made out of? Did she at least have soft synthetic skin?
>>93028012
Samurai Meme killing the block from beyond the grave
>>93054437
It's less funny when you are 100% right
ok Toonami General, since the current lineup isn't working, and Toonami is obligated to air the shows they have, fix the schedule without changing the shows

>>93054288
Never mentions in the anime but it's fairly flesh-like from what I remember.Still weighs enough to crush your pelvis into fine dust though.
>>93055037
she seems like a bottom anyways
>>93054288
She had that chest vagina thing that had her core or whatever and it seemed to move like skin
>>93055037
That's ok, I'll destroy her robot pussy from behind

Naruto
Super
Hunter
GITS and Jack, either order
>>93038427
It's a mixed bag. For one thing the manga is a monthly release, and they deliberately delayed season 2 so they could continue making the anime with no filler.
However the series popularity has soured due to the sheer volume of stuff there is. There's still a critical mass of material in US stores, there's the two recap movies, there's the live-action movie, there's the USJ stuff, there's the spinoff material, anthologies, and so on. All that in just 4 years was bound to put the public off.
>>93059125
But the chapters being adapted now were out in 2013. If they were only gonna do 12 episodes, they only needed to wait a year max for enough content.
>>93028012
Legit worry.
>>93056693
/co/ is shitty and boring
I can't believe people hate generals but are fine with the endless /tv/ tier threads instead
Only slightly toonami related buthas anything significant happened in the one punch man comic?I haven't kept up in months.
She saved Toonami.
But she could only do so much before it all.. .. I mean.
It hurts, ya know? Watching all the work the heroine of Toonami do just go down the tubes.
Super so far is lackluster
HxH took forever to be watchable
Attack on Titan is meh
Tokyo Ghoul is ok but not really
Both Gundams a shit
And Lupin is niche as fuck.
>>93060601
ONE updated the webcomic for the first time in months, just some light stuff about Saitama and Genos' living situation.
Murata manga finally finished the tournament filler arc, it was terrible, now they can finally get back to Monster Association stuff.
>>93060601
Original or redraw?Original we found out that Blast wore the same jumpsuit as Saitama when he saved Tatsumaki and basically created her current personality of never accepting help from others. The redraw finished the tournament so we're gonna finally get Garou in probably 10 more chapters.
>>93061740
You do realize that ONE is the one who pushes for these side stories right and writes them all?
>>93061740
Dang,kinda bummed. Thanks for the info,anon
>>93058210
Wouldn't be surprised at all.
>>93036608
Wasn't even his fault, he just didn't read the small print, ok, maybe it was.
>>93031362
>placing it at the beginning of the block
is lupin good? wondering if my dad would like it
>>93064274
probably, I guess the show's vague genre falls under stuff like cowboy bebop and therefore is "good" mainstream anime
>>93064274
Hell yeah. It's got a very Western flavor, so if he's into heist/adventure movies it should be right up his alley.
>>93064828
that's good to hear, he's a normie but he's been watching toonami lately and really liking it
soon he will be a weeb,soon
