Convince me, a low-life loser with nothing else to do on a saturday who sat through the one piece marathon and I dont like or watch one piece to stick around for the AoT marathon night.

>>93191471
I can't. There is zero justification for doing so. Stream some good anime during that time instead

I kinda want Toonami to die already, but I get the feeling this won't happen until FLCL2 has aired.

>>93191464
The closest weekend to the 4th becomes the Holiday weekend. How do you not get this?

>>93191471
This season of AoT is actually pretty good and we'll at least get to see the OP uncut for once, which is nice since it's a really good OP.

>>93190444

Are the days of 1 million in ratings over with (for now)?

As soon as they're able, they should shift Jack into 3am and see how that goes, but we're stuck with it there until at least August.

>>93191813
We already did with episode one

>>93192080
>for now

Likely forever. Pulling Jack of won't magically bring all those lost viewers back, and the lineup is generally dogshit. They finally get something good and throw it at 2am

>>93190444
>18-49 ratings jumped up when Hunter x Hunter came on
>Overall ratings only dropped 9k
I keep saying this, but HxH has excellent audience retention nearly every week. That's likely why it's remaining at 1:30.

>>93191718
That's really all we have left to look forward to. Nothing else on the table really. No prospects of the block growing, and no real signs they're going to pick up any requested shows either.

>>93192275
Yeah and now we get it again. One more time. Which is nice since they reference the chorus of the OP in the dialogue of the show later.

>>93192414
Yea, the dream of the block growing and airing good shows is pretty much dead

>>93192455
Part of the problem is Toonami's already exhausted its supply of good shows that are both available to them and would fit the block according to Demarco's arbitrary specifications. This has actually been the case for a while really. The pickings are very slim. Demarco I think was trying to bridge that gap by stuffing the block with reliable longrunning shows, but turned out those shows are only reliable as filler and can't carry the block alone. So he's back to square 1 and now has two choices: lower his standards or broaden his scope of what kind of anime are okay for Toonami.

To be honest I'd be fine with either option since there's plenty of less popular shows that would fit this block that are passed over simply because they have no hype and no established fanbase.

It's still very hot in Japan but western fans are fickle and constantly jump around.

How long do you think Toonami has if it keeps but this atrocious ratings.

What is the source for the ratings info?

>>93192649
If they decide to cancel they will give it til the end of this year at the soonest. Else they will wait til FLCL airs to see if can revitalize the block (it won't).

>>93192532
The main issue is Demarco shutting down good shows. There is plenty of stuff out there that fits the blocks criteria. But it doesn't fit Demarco's personal criteria so we don't get them.

>>93192649
Pretty much guaranteed we will see some kind of cut before the year ends. That will instigate a panic that will boost numbers for awhile.

Life is cruel.

>>93194252
Looks like shit anyways

>>93192343
that's me

On saturdays most bars close at 1:00 in my area so I usually get home by the time its on and watch it. Its also the only thing I would watch anyway because Jack is over, I watch the super subs on sundays and one piece ended a few months ago.

Nintendo saved E3

cant wait for Demarco to bitch about it

I'm really starting to think Lazzo went up to Demarco and said "Alright you can keep 11 on the block, but it HAS to be Jack, if you refuse, you lose the slot"

>>93194408
Which if true just confirms Demarco is a retard who didn't learn from the last time they tried this

>>93194264
Are you just saying that just from the poster or have you see the manga it's based on?
Because Pluto is a modern masterpiece.

>>93194408
BUT THEN WHO WAS FLCL

Do I have to watch the previous Parts of Lupin to get Part 4?

>>93194516
The poster. Those designs look awful, couldn't waifu someone with that character design if I tried

>>93195038
Nah man it's like scooby doo. Those meddling thieves get into different antics every episode and it never matters outside of that

>>93195426
How is that shitpost? One Piece is Toonami. It's got Nami right there in the name.

>>93195038
No, each series reboots from scratch and episodes are self contained stories. You can not only start with any of the series but start with almost any episode. Blue Jacket/Series 4, the one we have on Toonami, does have more continuity between episodes than is usual for a Lupin III series, and it also doesn't hop around from country to country like Lupin series normally do, it's all set in the same small country. But for all that it's still largely episodic with self contained episodes, only a few multi-parters if I remember correctly.

There's only a like 5 or 6 recurring characters in the franchise and the rest are just stand-ins, but Blue Jacket again has a few more recurring characters than normal due to staying in one place for the entire series.

>>93195444
Why not be excited for both?

>Demarco gets "requested" Tokyo Ghoul and it flops
>Demarco gets also "requested" Lupin and immediately dumps it at 2am likely anticipating another ratings black hole

So what exactly is Demarco supposed to do here at this point? It seems that everything he tries just makes it worse

>>93196801
So even you agree the anime sucks

Where's that picture of DeMarco with the text saying "you could have stopped this"?

>>93196751
The danger of chasing fads is you have to strike at the exact right moment to capitalize on hype. AoT's hype is dead in the west and there's nothing you can do about that. Tokyo Ghoul is too late to cash in at all. And I'm not sure who requested Lupin III but it seems like another Gundam fiasco of a small but vocal minority requesting something out of nostalgia and then getting something new from the same franchise that they didn't have any interest in. The people who bitched and moaned about gundam don't care about gundam, they just wanted more nostalgia from G/Wing Gundam on the block. Same deal with Lupin III I bet. They were probably hoping for red jacket. Too bad, you get the new blue jacket, which while good isn't what they wanted and I bet they won't even tune in to it.

I think they'd be better off just picking shows they think are good rather than trying to cater to fans. They didn't consult any fans when they got Dimension W and it did pretty great despite being overall mediocre. Just shows the fans don't know what they want.

>>93196970
>The people who bitched and moaned about gundam don't care about gundam, they just wanted more nostalgia from G/Wing Gundam on the block.

Ugh. At least G Gundam is fun. Wing doesn't hold up whatsoever. Unicorn is exponentially better than Wing. Wing's only advantages are nostalgia and standing on its own with its own continuity.

>>93196970
>I think they'd be better off just picking shows they think are good rather than trying to cater to fans.

I agree, but only slightly. They need to stop listening to the wrong fans (i.e., people who use too many exclamation points), and so often. Measure the responses accordingly and then see what can fit in to the block when time and funds allow.

Moderation is what the block really needs. I mean, it's hard to accuse the fans of being too fickle when the showrunner himself turned down Panty and Stocking simply because he wasn't a fan of it.

>>93192414
I want to see all of my jojos aired on toonami.

>>93195231
GTFO moefag, this masterpiece isn't for plebian like you anyway.

What the fuck did he mean by this?

>>93192918
Give examples.

How to save Toonami: Remove the "action" rule, and have more people have a final say on the anime they pick. Demarco treating Toonami has his personal MAL is slowly killing the block.

There are plenty of anime that barely have any action that can fit the block. It's time to move on.

Fuck, Pluto is going to be 6 long episodes, assuming 45 minutes each, so if Toonami would need whole hour for it.

So how can DeMarco see more worth in fucking marathons than movies?

It's only been two months.

Face it, you miss her.

>>93200596
I think he mentioned it doesn't cost them extra money to air a marathon, while it does to run a movie.

>>93201136
I don't specifically miss Ryuko or Kill la Kill, they had their time. What I do miss is that feeling of having something to look forward to every week.

>>93201136
A little bit. Her show was fun but its ran its course. If she ever got a season two then I'd be all for it.

>>93192918
Nanoha
Dog Days
Precure

>>93196970
Hey, at least we're getting a new Lupin III series on air. I'll tune in for it, and as much as I love Lupin, I doubt it'll be a smash hit.

Then again, in 2014, arguably Toonami's peak year, my favorite show that year was Black Lagoon, a nearly decade-old mid-card show that everyone else seemed to ignore being on Toonami.

>>93202658
Lupin airing at 2 in the goddamn morning is the thing that's going to hurt it the most. I really don't know why they don't throw Jack to the back of the block and give Lupin a real chance at success.

>>93202782
Pretty much this

>>93201810
This

>>93201136
Nope. Her sister on the other hand...

I stopped watching toonami when they took One Piece off air, has anything noteworthy happened?

>>93202658
I had a similar deal with Parasyte. I loved that anime and was psyched to see it on Toonami even if the dub was meh, but hardly anyone seemed to pay it any attention or get its appeal.

>>93200596
Marathons cost him nothing to run and let him stretch out the shows he has that much longer.

>>93197739
No they just need to stop listening to fans period.

season 2 when.. or was it 3?

>>93205560
Which is that? Kemono friends?

>>93206360
Never. It was so poorly received they did an anime original ending and quietly killed it. While the manga sputtered on.

>>93205560
Because it's popular with normalfags who don't buy anime normally. They turned out in droves to buy the first volume of the first season and that made its sales numbers shoot up, but it fell off hard after that because normalfags aren't gonna spend tens of thousands of yen to collect BDs. Only otaku do that.

Its manga sales though enjoyed top rankings for years and only recently fell out of the top 10, but it's still a strong selling manga and its merch also does a very good business. Last Newtype poll also had like 7 Attack on Titan characters in the top 10 for male and female characters.

Just cancel it

>>93207949
