On October 5th, Dr Stone will air two new episodes. The bonus episode will cover the slot left vacant by Genlock.
One Punch Man S2 will be joining the lineup on October 12th. Timeslot yet to be decided.
Toonami will be running a sendoff marathon for DBS on September 28th. One new episode of Super will air at 11pm, the rest will be reruns. The finale of Super airs the following week.
Demon Slayer will be joining Toonami on October 12th. Timeslot yet to be decided.
Last week was nothing special, good nor bad. This week, despite long standing tolerance, the audience starts to falter on Genlock, with a sharper drop than Super from normal, as well as a spike when Dr Stone starts. Thankfully we only have one more episode of that to get through. Other highlights, Bort lost to his dad and Lupin lost to MHA reruns.
Current Series End Dates: Dragon Ball Super - October 5, 2019 Gen:Lock - September 21, 2019 Dr. Stone - February 1, 2020 Fire Force - January 11, 2020 Food Wars! - September 5, 2020 Black Clover - TBD Boruto: Naruto Next Generations - TBD Naruto: Shippuden - March 9, 2024 Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin - October 5, 2019 Lupin III: Part V - November 30, 2019 My Hero Academia - November 2, 2019
will gen lock go down as the worst show ever on modern Toonami?
Asher Sanders
yes, its somehow worse than PTE
Nathan Allen
Yes. Bort is a close second.
Angel Mitchell
All I remember was that he was crappy as Sanosuke in the Kenshin OVAs
Jaxon Lewis
In recent memory, definitely. But Tenchi Muyo GXP, Sandwhale and Me, Samurai 7, Tokyo Ghoul, and Beware the Batman are stiff competition in terms of the worst. Pop Team wasn't that bad

RT will be fine. 75% of the lay offs were from the live action department and a lot of the rest were people who pretty much only had jobs because nepotism.
That being said, GenLock season 2 is 100% not happening after this just happened For those not in the know or can’t read context clues, Gray is the ex head of animation and the one who created GenLock. Apparently he also siphoned off funding and resources from other productions to fund his autism project that was GenLock.
They have advertised lots of shows as season finale. The truth is, they don’t know 100% that there won’t be another season. But let’s be real, Genslop just lost most of its staff and more layoffs are coming. It’s done
Ryder Price
Thank god, genlock is probably one of the worst things Ive ever watched.
Nathaniel Edwards
Toonami never differentiates between seasons if they go directly into the next one
Matthew Perry
See
Adrian Hall
>wanting two slots eaten up by Naruto Fuck off
Hudson Reed
I legit would rather they just remove slots than waste everyone’s time with reruns.
Jordan Brown
Clovercuck will never respond to you and will ignore all negative things to Black Clover. Hey, shithead, the elf arc's animation is fucking shit for what's considered the best arc in the series, Chimera Ant arc sends its universal critically acclaimed regards
Eli Phillips
You got a sauce on that?
Michael Ortiz
Demarco confirmed the top 5 requests would be on Toonami with the next few months. If OPM and DS count as two, they have to replace Gundam with something new to fit 3 more shows before years end
Bentley Hill
110096423 >no responses >resorts to samefagging lol
I'm more interested in their December Dragonball videos they probably won't do either.
Anthony Harris
It’s like 99.9% chance it won’t come back. Unless there is an official confirmation there won’t be more, Toonami covers their ass with “season finale”
Michael Lewis
>Can't backlink Newfag
Christopher Evans
Now I'm all for Cloverfags getting a slice of humble pie after all the non-stop Gucci cash money shit they talked months ago but they long settled down since then, so what's the point?
Logan Murphy
Bad block = clover shined good block = clover hanging in there
Clover might be the new one piece with the upcoming shows tho
Henry Hernandez
I really hope Part 5 is the last time we see Lupin on this block.
Easton Gomez
110097004 >He doesn’t know about withholding (you)s
Carter Gutierrez
>he doesnt know about part 6
Kevin Allen
I guess that explains how they could afford Michael B. Jordan
Jason Hernandez
One Piece was actively losing viewers every week. Clover holds its audience share, why people expect it to beat the shit before it is beyond me
Colton Baker
I can see this opinion after Part 4 which was mostly hit or miss and forgettable but Part 5 is currently the only show that makes me wish it was next week already when it's over. So I can agree to an extent if it's wacky Lupin but more serious adult Lupin can stay.
Christian Rodriguez
Considering it’s swift move to the deathslot, and frequent loss to a rerun, I don’t think le faggit man will be allowed to get any more. Same with Gundam, he was certain it would air at 1am. Programming said fuck that
Blake Hernandez
thats a shame they've been setting him up for years
Angel Brown
Hes actually a gen:lock shill, just ignore him.
Jeremiah Stewart
Jojo dub isn't even close to done yet, the anime only ended last season and they've NEVER released a Jojo dub faster than 7 months after the last episode aired in Japan.
Jose Cox
It took DeMarco 3 months after Kai ended to rerun it. I'd imagine he'd do it in the same amount of time. That or run GT.
William Cook
The dub doesn't have to be done, but it has to be a few months ahead of Toonami. They were still dubbing SC and DiU while they were both running on Toonami.
Jason Wright
>Team Four Star Who? I think I remember somebody with that name. Didn't they used to make videos?
Robert Bennett
Do people actually still watch tfs? They havent been funny in years.
Samuel Rivera
>Cancel their anticipated DBZ Abridged movie (the only reason their retard fans sub them), because they "couldn't make it funny" >Shill their unfunnier shit (JoJo summaries, lame-ass Office ripoff documentary, and DBZ Shorts) extensively.
DBZ Abridged is dead.
Mason Nguyen
They're still funny, they just take themselves way too seriously since they started making a living off their content. Also they now hardly produce any worthwhile content, they just churn out tons of low effort vlogger shit that is now 90% of their video library and starting lots of new abridged series projects when they know all anybody cares about is DBZA.
Daniel Cox
>They're still funny >they now hardly produce any worthwhile content
But the previous shows outperforming it is supposed to happen, user. Anyway, with my computer finally back up and running and soon to upgrade the RAM in a crap laptop I got, here's last week:
11:00 Dragon Ball Super 764 0.38
11:30 gen:LOCK 452 0.25
12:00a Dr. Stone 400 0.21
12:30a Fire Force 349 0.19
1:00a Food Wars 299 0.17
1:30a Black Clover 259 0.14
2:00a Boruto: Naruto Next Generations 267 0.14
2:30a Naruto: Shippuden 241 0.12
3:00a Mobile Suit Gundam: Red Comet 233 0.12
3:30a Lupin the 3rd: Part 5 224 0.11
4:00a My Hero Academia 221 0.11
No comments this time, really. Kinda odd for Fire Force to do just as well as last week, but a slightly lower demo. Unfortunately, Chad Clover bros, looks like we won't be getting that coveted 1am slot anytime soon.
Isaac Edwards
Do you have bad reading comprehension or what? They are still funny, but they rarely make anything funny these days because they're too focused on trying to make enough money to stay in business. Ironically them becoming full time content creators has led to them making less good content than ever.
Colton Parker
>they are still funny >but they rarely make anything funny So they aren't funny
Zachary Parker
He should have said started, because it’s not going to start until those BDs drop
Tyler Ramirez
>they are funny >except not right now because they don’t do anything funny And anyway, they were never funny. They make a couple cancerous DBZ memes and people think they are the peak of comedy.
Jaxon Gomez
>On October 5th, Dr Stone will air two new episodes. The bonus episode will cover the slot left vacant by Genlock. Based.
Nice to see Dr.stone getting some pretty decent numbers and showing gen:cucks the door.
Matthew James
Inb4 Primal airs on [as] regular, flops worse than an average Toonami night, then gets put on Toonami in the rerun slot by Demarco anyways to spite Genndy
I mean the entire reason they need to play catch-up is because of the stupid Super marathon, so it’s not that based
Julian Sullivan
Grow up Jeremy, you're 30 years old you balding faggot, act like one
You wish. He's an MHA shill who keeps trashing on anything not MHA and is unilaterally hated on Yea Forums. The whole Hunterchad nonsense? That's him. He loves making fanbase wars but his most hated series is BC.
Easton Diaz
I'm pretty sure it's just running in some LA area art houses for a few days so it can qualify for an Academy Award nomination.
Wyatt Scott
>gen lock >being seen by anyone who saw even basic ass Hunter Uhhhhhhh, I think that shill dude might be living rent free in your head. Btw, where tf is Part 5 Demarco?
Julian Edwards
Jojobronies are such fucking cancer. Literally incapable of doing anything but whining about where the next season of their garbage is at so they can proceed to never tune in for it
Kevin Morris
>GT Imagine the shitposting.
Isaac Jackson
Thankfully Demarco doesn’t get to make the choice, Toei does. And they aren’t going to be giving GT any unneeded exposure
Jace Brooks
Gundam's not going away anytime soon since it's the 40th anniversary with the Legendary movie on the way, Sunrise is going to want to keep the brand fresh abroad.
Daniel Phillips
>lupin losing to the reruns I hope Demarco has the sense not to get another run after this one.
Still though, Toonami doesn't have any other recent Gundam series (with a dub) they could air except Build Divers, and that's tame enough to air on daytime CN (if they still ran anime). So we won't be getting any more Gundam for a while.
James Davis
>Toonami doesn't have any other recent Gundam series (with a dub) Well... >All these Gundam series getting tv cuts coming to Toonami >The one Gundam series that would resonate most with the Toonami crowd (all action, none of the IBO melodrama) is completely MIA >The one that's already dubbed and broken up into eps, that were later turned into movies Goddammit
Nobody gives a fuck what Sunrise wants. AS isn’t going to keep throwing money away on garbage people don’t want
Austin Clark
Also zero politics*
Luke Baker
Also has pretty great animation
Hunter Bailey
Narushit and Borushit are far worse.
Michael Flores
Gen lock is like if every episode of PTE was just the female portion.
Wyatt Evans
So? Fucking autistic cucks follow that or care.
Luke Gutierrez
>Tenchi Muyo GXP It was bad for the time. >Sandwhale literally just 5-minute shorts >Tokyo Ghoul Only season 2 was bad, but still doesn't come close to Gen:Lock >Beware the Batman kid show filler at 4am
Nathan Roberts
Aren't some of the episodes too short to fit the time slot?
Blake Long
T4S was never good anyway.
Andrew Bailey
They just can't "remove" slots. AS has to rerun SOMETHING at 4am.
Asher Stewart
Patterns are only true until they aren't.
Luis Roberts
Then run some of their crap comedies that they can run for free. Don’t overextend Toonami just to fill time, especially when it’s proven that the longer Toonami is padded with reruns, the worse it does overall
Josiah Myers
Viz only dubs over BD footage. That’s not a pattern, it’s a fact
Adrian Rogers
3 more days. At what point did this shit start meaning so much to me? I almost feel like it's holding me back in life but really that's on me.
>genlock will be gone after this week Just 22 more minutes of suffering to go
Zachary Cook
>Toonami will be running a sendoff marathon for DBS on September 28th. One new episode of Super will air at 11pm, the rest will be reruns.
This is so stupid. They hardly ever run new episodes during a marathon. Why start now?
Ryan Reyes
What about the Fujiko-centric one with tons of nudity?
Bentley Clark
So.. is meatmeat just a backround character? I thought she was in the OP
Jonathan Ramirez
anons i dont think i can make it another toonami night
Dylan Reyes
>Sunrise is going to want to keep the brand fresh abroad. Which Toonami doesn't help with. The brand peaked in the west shortly after Wing then faded into irrelevancy. Gundam has been ratings black hole and forcing it constantly doesn't change that
She was the earliest girl in Souma's harem but the author was hooked on the >I wanna make a haughty blonde tsundere fall for the ragtag plebeian MC trope, so she never got much development with Souma. Also, he had no idea how to make that trope work in the context of his story, so he wrecked it in the last two arcs to make that pairing just barely plausible.
Cameron Hernandez
Why is Lupin III even on Toonami? It's not a good anime, it's not an adult anime, it's not even animated 50% of the episodes.
Nicholas Green
I'm sad to hear Genlock is dead. The worldbuilding was nonexistent, sure, but I want to know who Chase is going to fuck on the Genlock team.
>Aren't some of the episodes too short to fit the time slot? Yeah, that's true. If I gave enough of a fuck about Gen:Lock I would know how they worked around the length for that but hypothetically speaking they could probably fill the spare time with some music vids.
Jack Diaz
Too bad it was the worse episode featuring Megumi. I wanted to fap and be hungry.
Lincoln Thomas
Genlock didn't know what kind of show it wanted to be. Was it supposed to be Pacific Rim, Evangelion, or Tomino Era Gundam?
Juan Gonzalez
ok, i see the BD argument pop up all the time, but how exactly is it relevant here? by the time DiU ended here (mid-june), the first 20 eps of GW were already released on BD, which is a big enough buffer for them to have started airing the GW dub immediately after DiU ended. obviously that didn't happen, but the point is, why would they have to wait for the final GW BD to release in japan, to start dubbing and airing it here? seems foolish when they could have it ready to air much earlier, without any concern of going too fast for the BDs
Henry Walker
VIZ likes to take their time when it comes to dubs, don't question it.
He somehow got muff diving on him, stepped on by a brown goddess and saw her underwear
Ryan Watson
1: If they already paid for the license, then they don't need to pay again to air reruns. 2: You don't have to watch the reruns. 3: Reruns at 4am have no effect at how well every program before it does.
I still say this scene shoulda been 10-11 seconds tops.
Aaron Diaz
No. Her getting beat to near death in front of kids while the priest telling her he'll be with her till the end and screaming like an autist shoulda been 10-11 seconds. That shit went on for about a good minute.
Parker Allen
how else are you going to introduce someone as a villain after spending 21 minutes of thinking its some other guy?
Matthew Russell
Should have been longer and more detailed. Too many of the hits happened off screen
Ryan Parker
One of the best shows in the block
Aaron Russell
Don't worry, they were so proud of the scene that they'll show it again next episode.
Isaiah Jenkins
It's good and I can see why people like it but I really watch it for Noelle, Yami, the Black Bulls broing around, and the odd Sakuga ep
>Black Bulls They're okay, but I just wanted Asta and Nero go on adventures in the next big arc or to have Noelle and Zora tag along with them to make way for new characters.
So what are the chances we get Sword Art Online Alicization Part 2 or Re:Zero?
Nathaniel Reyes
>Sword Art Online Alicization Part 2 When it gets Dubed, unfortunately. >Re:Zero You knows. We know the up coming shows are the top 5 most wanted but we don't know what they are.
Alexander Martin
Re: Zero was rejected because the episode lengths can get up to 26 minutes without OP/ED credits. The dub is mediocre anyway.
Zachary Reed
Is it wrong that I liked Eugeo as the protagonist and wished Kirito wasn't there.
be in a shounen that was thought of drunkenly overnight and pitched to a studio on a saki stained napkin
Joshua Wood
Wen Bojack being never is easily in my personal Top 10 Anime Betrayals. Unabridged looks like it'll be cringy in the bad way, and their JoJo Part 1 summary was a massive disappointment. I'll probably enjoy DBZ Shorts, though.
Nolan Thompson
No, It's agreed on that SAO can be good as long as there is no Kirito.
Daniel Morgan
>Alicilization Part 2 Guaranteed to come next year >Re:Zero The opportunity to grab it presented itself years ago but it still has a decent chance. When the first seasons for Dr.Stone, Demon Slayer, and Fire Force end it could be a nice filler show.
Julian Parker
We could be having MHA right now, Bros....

Xavier Carter
>source: my ass
Cameron Lewis
We probably are, just not as a simuldub premiere like Demarco wanted
Christian Howard
Ah i cant wait to see how Megumi and Souma btfo horse ass guy this coming Saturday
She's sadly not relevant at all after her intro, she only gets one more cooking appearance I think. Souma and Megumi are more central characters, with the Polar Star Dorm gang being regular supporting characters that show up frequently, especially in the earlier parts of the story. Erina is also a major character and she only gets more... central. Her assistant too. The Aldinis get a lot more screen time than Nikumi does, becoming about as commonly recurring as the Polar Star Dorm gang later on.
There's 2 or 3 other important characters who haven't been introduced yet that end up becoming very important, plus the other Council of 10 members and some other antagonists.
Justin Nguyen
Aniplex doesn’t turn dubs around that fast, it’s for sure gonna be early next year
Zachary Morales
Because Dragon Ball as a whole is the lifeblood of Toonami, and since they're probably not going to get OG DB, GT, or Super 2, they want to give it a proper send-off.
Jaxon Williams
I always liked him over John Gen:Lock
Christian Powell
Dragonball is more like a cancer considering most of its fans refuse to watch anything else Toonami offers
Julian Thompson
So are you guys showing for the marathon to at least have a comfy shitposting time?
Dylan Gray
Lel no fuck DB
Nathan Lewis
The solution to that was to cut stuff You mean there's actually more of it?
No, I meant why would they premiere a new episode right before the marathon when they could save it for the next week and keep Super on the schedule for another week?
You could say the same thing about most of the overhyped shows on the block.
Gavin Roberts
Not sure if it killed interest on Yea Forums; they still have threads about it.
Jaxson Kelly
Just in the first episode. I think the other long episode was resolved by simply removing the OP entirely
Leo Stewart
But you can’t, because no other show brings such a massive audience that leaves immediately when the show ends
Evan Thomas
Marathon shitposting times are pretty comfy, I'll be there.
James Harris
Probably yeah, won't watch the whole marathon though.
>Vic case fell apart >MHA season 4 soon to disappoint >Yea Forums is still garbage as ever >ultrasound tomorrow might force me to curb my drinking >Braves bats are cold Hahaha this sucks man
When it rains it pours. I've finally begun to harden my heart to it and keep it cool. I think I hope
Justin Wright
No. We haven't had one in a while so I forgot the feeling of wasting a week wageslaving with a marathon being the reward.
Robert Murphy
because i like it
Jaxson Cox
At least Gen:Lock is as good as cancelled.
Bentley Lewis
I sometimes wonder what leads to the creation to stupid shit like Gen:Lock. Writing a comprehensive story shouldn't be hard.
Wyatt Morgan
what was with the overanimated crying in fire force
William Bennett
The guy who created it was so full of himself that he actually thought he was creating a masterpiece. So much so that he started taking money from other projects to fund it.
Michael Gomez
The studio knew who the waifu of the series was and decided to give her big moment since her actual effort doesn't happen until part 2 of the series. Also they plan on animating the most kino scenes in Fire Force.
Where else would I be on a Saturday night? I'll probably just watch the few episodes I actually liked and spend the rest of the time catching up with my backlog though.
I'll have it on in the background but I'm not gonna pay attention to it or probably to the threads very much.
Cameron Baker
Inept at cooking, basically serves utter slop and can’t follow a simple recette
Austin King
Don't you have a failing restaurant to run?
Lucas Thompson
too plain
Christopher Brown
I don’t have a restaurant at all, and neither do you because your are a tasteless failure. If I did have a restaurant, I would model it after the one Shinomia runs, it’s the model of perfection, I didn’t get a restaurant in France’s biggest district with flavorless slop, that’s for sure. Plus, he is also a really good looking guy.
Check the ratings yourself dumbass. Trim the reruns and the whole thing spikes
Elijah Anderson
Yeah, when they're at the front, dumbass.
Dominic Carter
Nope, at the back too
Levi Hall
Either you're stupid or you think I'm stupid. Are you actually trying to convince me that you refuse to watch shows you like at 11 or 12 because there are reruns on at 4?
Parker Ramirez
The first hour usually fairs fine regardless, but everything after that sees a visible increase in viewership when dead weight reruns are kicked off. The block feels like less of a chore to sit through entirely when it’s not bogged down
Colton Phillips
go back to bc
Daniel Barnes
>15 year old girl with tits bigger than her head Next thing you know we'll have lolis with fully developed bodies
Brody Clark
lol no The underwater temple arc was the only decent arc this show had but then it spiraled downwards immediately afterwards so
Charles Smith
Will this at least be fun? I hear on top of the shoddy animation, it cover a kinda dull point too
It probably will be fun since it's still ONE, but Mob Psycho is superior so seeing that beforehand might dampen the enjoyment of S2.
Kevin Phillips
If we do get MHA S4 at some point, it's kind of a bummer since I never watched the end of S3 after it was deathslotted and don't really feel like watching it on my own time.
Charles White
Not surprised. Women in restaurants suck at cooking.
Jeremiah Jackson
That's your own fault.
Michael Bennett
so toonami just implodes after dbs ends, right? or does it not matter because db fags only come for db and don't contribute to the numbers for the block
Andrew Evans
probably
Christian Stewart
Toonami should've tried harder to find a long running show those retards or at least the regular AS audience will latch onto. They dug their own grave
Jaxon Hill
Name one which Toonami hasn't aired that isn't Fairy Tail. They've otherwise aired all the potential long runners.
Ethan Nelson
The ladder. Toonami will likely do better with DBS gone since the first show can be paired with Family Guy
Dragonball fans hate anime. There is no show they could have got that would have retained that audience. DBfags are a cancer to the block
Jace Long
Thank god gen:lock is over this week
Christopher Davis
IGPX was pretty shit even though everybody seemed to lap it up.
Cameron Wright
Here's a fun fact for you: Only a few weeks ago, we got to the episode which aired in Japan the week Toonami returned in 2012. We're still about a year and a half out from getting to the point Japan was at when Toonami started running Shippuden back in 2014.
Lincoln Russell
one last week of turning over to syfy to watch futurama as well as their own low budget shows they are producing akin to trying to horn in on the late night stoner audience that adult swim has
Luis Reyes
Thank God gen:lock is dead forever.
Benjamin Evans
>mfw even RT-fags are cheering the creator getting kicked to the curb because of how shit he was.
Jose Nelson
I really liked the micro series, shame the full series was a CG nascar pile of ass.
Brody Ramirez
Only reason people gave it a pass was because Toonami made it
Joseph Baker
Buttholes. Complaining DBZA is getting in the way of the professional work when it was the foundation of what they've done.
Jason Ortiz
It’s one of my favorite parts of the block. Black Clover isn’t original, but does a lot of things better than other battle Shōnen (side cast that matters, based main character, likeable if stock characters) that I can’t help but love it.
Samuel Clark
The only ones I have any respect for are the ones who took their experience from DBZA and applied it to going out and getting real voice acting roles. It’s cringe as fuck to hang onto DBZA forever and try to make your career out of it
Brayden Sanchez
If Toei wouldn't DDOS their entire operation any time they release a new episode, they would probably be more inclined to continue it.
Mason Hall
I enjoyed it so much I planned out my own prequel to it based off of suggestions from these threads and /u/ to cope with the fact that people don't care for it all that much.
Ryan Brooks
If TFS would stop profiting off of stolen content Toei wouldn’t be inclined to DDOS it
Joseph Jackson
Black clover is 100% shonen tropes and it knows it, which is probably its greatest strength.
Hudson Wilson
Anyone who fucking likes black clover watched the actually new episodes instead of the old as fuck ones toonami airs
Josiah Reed
10 weeks old is hardly old as fuck
Angel Nguyen
There's only one BD left.
Jace Lopez
Then explain OPM Season 2. We're going in that shit with no BDs.
Dylan Watson
They don't monetize the DBZ Abridged videos.
Nathaniel Wood
For the new episode, then I leave.
Benjamin King
Maybe? I mean, it is only DB Super.
Jayden Lee
Basically just remove the first ratings. Nothing will drastically change.
Jose Robinson
Viz is dubbing the BD footage
Jackson Cruz
>they don’t directly monetize it so they aren’t making money on it lmao >conveniently leaving out all the DBZ rip-off merch they were selling
Leo Perry
The current second show will likely do a lot better since it will be paired with FG. So I’m expecting the entire block to do slightly better simply by not starting so unrealistically high
Robert Wood
What professional work do they even do?
Evan Hall
18s TFS VA and the dude that does Ainz in Overlord is from TFS, they both have multiple official roles at Funi
Grayson Ramirez
Mommy dearest syndrome
Cameron Young
>Shinra smiles whenever he's nervous >all the while people think he's being a smug prick he's actually extremely uncomfortable and having a bad time I kinda like this character quirk better than your typical flustered crybaby reaction
Black Clover in general has a major porn deficiency. Which is odd considering it’s popular enough that it should be getting all kinds of content
Luis Flores
So why wouldn't they have already started dubbing the GW blu-ray footage long ago?
Evan Lopez
the only one pornable is veronica and she does it well enough herself
Eli Ortiz
So how long will they make us wait to tell us what the third new show is?
Jackson Sanchez
They honestly have done everything but straight up say they're done with abridging DBZ but they know they can't say it. Essentially they're holding their fans hostage. "Yeah we may release the next episode in the next 10 years, but check out our shitty side project and let's plays!"
It has its moments but yeah it got bad. The Cell saga especially since they got super high huffing their own farts.
Demarco already indirectly confirmed that’s not going to happen
Jayden Russell
Why do I have a strange uneasiness about the direction Dr Stone is going to go? I feel like it’s a cracked vase full of water, and any second it’s just going to smash to pieces.
I have never had this feeling with other shonen garbage. Black Clover for example, I went into with rock bottom expectations, so really the only path I left for that was up. On the flip side, I went into Fire Force with high expectations that it has delivered on thus far, but I also believe with time my interest in it will trail off, as will the quality. I’m not sure how to describe Dr Stone, I went in with some expectations because of all the hype it was getting, but I just can’t pin down why I’m expecting it to fall apart
It actually has been getting pretty meh in the manga, actually think I might drop it.
Levi Miller
They'll introduce more people,become lesd focused and then fall apart. Unless it does the near miraculous,but NOT impossible,job of having lots of characters and still making you give a shit. Then again, I DID just pull this speculation out of my ass.
Nathaniel Bell
Let me ask you this, how many times did you hear about Fire Force or Dr Stone prior to this July? More than likely, the answer to this question is literally never. Fire Force is a shonen stuck in some obscure not Jump manga, but Dr Stone actually is in Jump, and it’s the worst performing one of the current active series by a long shot. The simple fact is it’s just not a good series. The “hype” you saw was all shills. Yes that term is often misused, but Jump has no qualms with using shills to give undercard shows a head start. It worked for Black Clover so they have reason to try. Notice how Dr Stone was able to trend multiple times during the day before it started, but now that it’s actually airing it seems like no one gives a fuck?
You aren’t wrong. Dr Stone started out on weak footing, and just pisses it all away almost instantly. I honestly don’t understand how it hasn’t been flat out cancelled yet
Logan Lopez
Where did the Fire Force hype come from then?
Oliver Walker
A bit more of a natural way, by showing a bunch of normies at a con some of the best animation in the series. That’s a surefire way to get people spreading the good word about the animation quality, which causes people to tune in. Trouble is, those normies are like Demarco clones. As soon as it started establishing itself as a fanservice oriented show, normie internet evaporated instantly.
Unlike Dr Stone, Fire Force will be able to coast along with its mediocre story with its animation quality. Dr Stone isn’t very action oriented, so it can’t rely on animation to save it, not that it has shown anything too standout yet anyway
David Nelson
If you truly are just pulling this out of your ass, it’s hilarious how on the mark it is. i hope you all haven’t gotten accustomed to the “main” cast
Jack Barnes
>They'll introduce more people,become lesd focused and then fall apart.
sounds like that show the last man on earth
Connor Carter
I don’t remember BC getting shilled at all, in fact I remember it getting shit on relentlessly.
Nolan Perry
It was shit on, but Jump was shilling it aggressively regardless. They really wanted it to take off because they were desperate for another “big” series for them to focus on
Animeonly, but so far more people are introduced but it hasn't lost focus yet I guess. Tsukasa is put on the back burner while they just do science shit.
Eureka Seven. I had my chance 7 years ago but I actually want to watch it now.
We already got a rerun of Deadman Wonderland in 2015, but honestly I wouldn't mind seeing it again.
Zachary Jackson
Don't worry, Toonami will solve this problem by not airing it.
Samuel Stewart
DeMarco said they will have announced every show in their current top 5 in the next coming months.
In July, he said the top requests were for "Dr. Stone, Mob Psycho S2, One Punch Man S2, JoJo S5", while not specifying any specific new titles.
In November of last year, it was Goblin Slayer, Lupin III Part V, Violet Evergarden, Golden Kamuy, and Banana Fish.
We know there's no chance for Violet Evergarden or Banana Fish due to licensing with Netflix/Amazon (and Banana Fish not having a dub). We got Lupin part 5, which leaves Goblin Slayer and Golden Kamuy. Goblin Slayer is too rape-y for DeMarco, and dropped almost completely out of existence in the public eye after airing.
I'd say Golden Kamuy and Mob season 2 are the most likely candidates for the next new show we have.
>oh no that fight with two literally who characters didn’t get the entire budget how could this be
Julian Clark
>Garou >literally who
Ayden Gutierrez
There's no way MHA season 4 isn't on the current top 5, and I doubt Golden Kamuy still is.
Dylan Stewart
Golden Kamuy fell out just as fast chief. And there’s no fucking way the ratings black hole people avoid weekly known as Lupin was a top 5 request. That entire November list reeked of lies.
We have no clue what their current top 5 chart is. Jojo makes sense because Jojobronies are relentless, but I would see that taking a slot in November instead since Viz takes their time to actually do a halfway decent job. Since we have one low priority slot to fill for the Oct 12 schedule, I could see that being Mob since it’s long past dub premiere status. I’d say at the latest that would air before Bort, maybe a little higher if they feel risky.
Don’t forget the wildcard for early November will be MHA S4. The memes about it not coming should have stopped immediately when they went out of their way to accommodate a partial rerun that just so happens to end the same time the dub would be far enough ahead for a Toonami run
This is kind of a troublesome promise. Demarco assures us the entire top 5 list will be on the block, yet doesn’t tell us what the list is. So there very well could be high request shows being skipped here and we won’t know any better.
Gavin Ramirez
Man,I liked that show at first. Dropped it after they went to California or something What the fuck happened?
Angel Torres
>Why do I have a strange uneasiness about the direction Dr Stone is going to go? Rape Namek 2.0
Hey I forgot about this series. Is it still ongoing?
Alexander Watson
Yes. I enjoyed it. Generic but very fun.
Samuel Gomez
Who is Veronica?
Jacob Reyes
Venesica
Connor Bell
>This is kind of a troublesome promise. Demarco assures us the entire top 5 list will be on the block, yet doesn’t tell us what the list is. So there very well could be high request shows being skipped here and we won’t know any better. Isn't entirely a bad thing, fad anime being skipped is perfectly fine.
Daniel Butler
So what show currently on the block do you hate the most BESIDES gen:lock?
Ryder Thompson
No it ended after a real shit part.
Bort and Bort's Dad.
Nolan Lee
>BC characters are so good that nobody wants porn of them Meanwhile in my homo gaycademia
My Hero probably, will never get the fellatio around it.
Blake Brooks
That's one hell of a cursed image.
Nathaniel Smith
That’s not what’s going to happen though, we are still getting fad anime, just any that offend le faggit man’s gentle sensibilities will be passed
Xavier Ross
Probably gonna have to go with Bort. It just comes off as an after school cartoon desperately riding the success of Naruto. The fact that it will occupy a spot indefinitely also factors into my opinion
Nicholas Perry
Where?
Brandon Brooks
On his AskFm where he confirmed the top 5 requests would be on the block with the next few months. If we assume OPM and Demon slayer are two of them, only way to shove 3 other shows on before years end is by premiering 3 shows on the 12th of October and 2 in November
Isaac Flores
>he doesn’t know
Ryan Martinez
Does anyone else stay up this late and watch these reruns? Man sealab went down hill.
Brody Perry
I actually don’t, a quick rundown would be appreciated
Liam Parker
>series is not that popular to start with >but gal stuff is an easy sell in recent times so it catches on a little on the internet >time passes and people quickly realize the series can never be more substantial than a doujinshi so interest starts to fade fast >author panics, puts “plot” on hold and ramps up the fanservice >little spike of interest, but still nothing that will cause long term interest to stick >ok time to introduce a graphic rape to my comedy series I don’t think I have ever seen a series heel turn that fast, nor have I seen a crowd of fans do the same. There are two paths of speculation. One, the editor said he was being cancelled, so he went full madman. The second, the editor was forcing him to continue the series based on a false and failing sense of success, and he was willing to do anything to get it canned. Nobody knows because he had to delete his Twitter after that chapter dropped because the ass ravaging it caused was so severe
Carson Turner
Lets be honest, it never started high up the hill in the first place
Ryan Barnes
How long will Toonami last?
Nicholas Roberts
>just any that offend le faggit man’s gentle sensibilities will be passed Ergo any isekai not named SAO can get fucked. Fire Force managed to pass but the hype around it probably made them look past the ecchi stuff. I don't mind fad anime pick-ups if they're beneficial to the ratings like Fire Force and Dr.Stone have been thus far though. The only issue I have with them especially the shonen ones is that they just make the line-up look predictable. Hopefully long enough to air Boogiepop They're in alright shape now but will definitely struggle until the next DB show, and the new original shows probably won't bring in much viewership 2021 is my bet.
I'm coming to like Dr. Stone, it's like someone combined Don't Starve Together and Terraria (almost) into an anime.
Aaron Lopez

Ethan White
Daily reminder that GenLock season 2 will NEVER happen unless RT just sells off the whole IP. In part because the creator got fired for being an absolute shit Head of Animation who stole money from other projects to fund his GenLock autism, but also because the animators outright refuse to ever work on a season 2 as a result of the aforementioned shitty behavior.
Aiden Richardson
Good things really do happen.
Elijah Collins
What will happen to RWBY?
Juan Walker
Likely continue on since it’s the only RT thing anyone cares about
Brandon King
Fire Force slipped by because they needed a show NOW and didn’t get a chance to look into it
Hunter Perez
AS insider here,
I’ll bet you are wondering what the other show we have on deck is. So let me ask you this, what is the BIGGEST show in the upcoming season that we could pick up? We knew we needed to stack the deck pretty hard with Super leaving, so we did what we had to do to pull off this upcoming schedule. This last announcement is really going to blow you guys away, and probably confuse a few too. I will say this, actions we took earlier in the year were directly responsible for us being able to pull this one off. So if it doesn’t make sense at first, just know it fell together this way because of what we did
Elijah Price
What’s the show
Colton Russell
The animators sound like a bunch of whiny bitches. I mean they couldn't even do good job making animations in the first place, so they shouldn't be allowed to work on anything really.
We have a delay next week, so I think we will come back to where we started
Happens for most shows that aren’t a direct simuldub. Since it’s episode 12, Japan may be taking their mid season break so Funi is taking the opportunity to stop as well
Christian Williams
Not entirely, but since we're only taking one week off for a marathon while Japan is taking two weeks off, this means we'll end up being only ONE episode behind next month rather than two.
Makes me wonder if the real reason for the Super marathon is because Toonami was alerted to this delay in advance.
Aaron Allen
Hero Aca season 4 is a no-brainer
Alexander Cox
If they could air it without all the filler episodes then yes, that'd be nice.
Probably get better since this fucking guy is no longer literally funneling money and personal away from the show for his own autism project and company paid trips to Japan.
Dylan Martin
I mean it’s hard to do a good job animating shit when your head of animation is constantly approving and unapproving shit on a whim, moving people between projects constantly, and firing anyone who speaks up.
Apparently the fucking Nano-smoke shit in GenLock (you know the Union’s fucking calling card with a bunch of particle effects and shit) was a last minute fucking addition to the show. Possibly only added in the last few months of production. At least that’s the story according to one of the animators who’s come out of the woodwork now that all this is public to call the dude a dickhead.
Lucas Stewart
Good luck. You may need it.
Benjamin Long
Maybe if the animation staff wasn’t so lazy and entitled, they could accomplish the tasks I give them. The guy is a great director, and all these reports are fake news from salty animation staff that doesn’t know the meaning of a hard days work
I think they are just at mid season in Japan, it does seem like an extended break but it’s not an unbelievable one. The only time table Funi has to adhere to is getting whatever episode Toonami is on dubbed before that Saturday, that doesn’t seem like it’s going to be an issue.
That’s kind of the trouble with Toonami airing simuldubs, Toonami has a good chance of running into unexpected break periods. 12 episode shows like AoT can usually muscle through to the end no problem, but any longer than that and a delay is inevitable
I know is a low effort larp, but I have also floated the possibility of an MHA simuldub premiere, but I think every season of MHA thus far has run into a delay halfway in, and Toonami would have to take that on the nose. Having the 2-3 week delay is what saves them from having to make schedule changes
Christian Rivera
Many anime do not take a break if they are 2 cour, they just keep going to the next cour with no stops. Sometimes they take a break, but it's not "usual", it's just not uncommon.
Brandon Murphy
So starting this Saturday, we have a new Pre Toonami schedule
8:00 Kai/Super 9:00 Bob's Burgers 10:00 Family Guy
on 10/5, the DB hour goes away.
This will really help the block be in a good starting position ratings wise from here on out.
Ryan Campbell
Thats kind of the risk reward with doing this. It's not the worst thing in the world if they have to run a rerun occasionally if they can actually get dub premeires. It's not that much of a disaster or hard to schedule.
Ryan Diaz
>bobs/FG lead in Watch them fuck this golden ratings ticket up by rerunning Dragonshit at the start
Anthony Garcia
is this because of the annual hour loss to CN?
Bentley Sanders
Is that still a thing?
Brody Nelson
It happened last year.
James Gray
Tbh it should be permanent at this point. AS has never been able to get any value out of that hour because it’s so early. Their best show there was KotH, and that’s gone forever
Thomas Smith
Everything is fad anime with you guys.
Luke Nguyen
Another 5 years at least.
Matthew Campbell
>practically guaranteed the second highest ratings by airing immediately after Super >can't even do that
>what is the BIGGEST show in the upcoming season that we could pick up? How should I know? I don't watch anime outside of Toonami.
Levi Murphy
>this means we'll end up being only ONE episode behind Yeah, there's no way Funimation will be able to keep up with that.
Christian Mitchell
>on 10/5, the DB hour goes away
demarco has to stuff that super rerun somewhere
Jace Reyes
I saw KotH at 6am today on CC. Why are they treating it like shit?
Wyatt Scott
They only wanted because AS had it. Now that they have it they don't want it.
Hunter Reed
My definition of a fad anime is if it's highly requested on Demarco's list during the season it's currently airing, then drops like a stone and gets replaced by the next hot show, then it's a fad. A good example is Goblin Slayer, and to add onto that shows that are consistently there like Mo and Jojo aren't fads.
So i know this is a longshot but i figured id try-last week there was a (commercial)? With David Tennat speaking with various cuts of anime,he was talking about how its hard to do the right thing when you are constantly reminded how bad things are happening all the time that you see via the news,etc. Anyone know what the hell im talking about? It was relativly early in the night. The speach was amazing and id love to see it again,can anyone help me out with this?
Here you go user: youtube.com/watch?v=AkKVEPPJYbM You can usually find all the night's promos/bumps within a few hours of airing on CabooseJr's channel.
Mason Rogers
Hell yea guys,genuinely--thank you. To anyone who missed it,do yourself a favor and watch it.
Kayden Gray
>watching liberal propaganda no thanks
Christopher Powell
Real AS insider here. The new show is Fairy Tail.
Chase Davis
I forget, did Shinra say there were no bones in the fire from his origin story?
Brandon Thompson
Thats really how you see it? To me its just a message to try be a decent human,even if its just small things. Basically saying we have potential for great things. Sorry you gotta bring those gay ass political ideas to a 1 minute video.
Dominic Lee
Why do people suck David Tennats dick so much? Dude is a pretty meh actor.
Jayden Hernandez
Im not saying hes anything special,but you gotta admit his delivery in that video is pretty good. Hes not really acting just speaking
Christopher Jackson
I think so, or at least no bones of his little brother.
Well, now I know what I'm saying tomorrow night when it comes on...
Dylan Ortiz
You do realize that wasn’t for that video, right? It’s just some speech lifted right out of Genlock over a bunch of anime clips
Ethan Foster
Sailor Moon (Crystal or Classic) or STU
Robert Adams
>classic sailor moon would this bump naruto out for longest runner?
Jacob Murphy
Dr Who
Evan Parker
>something new >lists something not new Nice literacy jackass
Jonathan Taylor
Sailor Moon will never happen because Hulu paid Viz a SHIT TON of money for exclusive rights to have it be streaming only.
Also, Crystal was widely reviled (to the extent that they pretty much said "Fuck it" and killed it after adapting the Bureau of Bad Behavior season).
And the Viz dub cuts may be uncut, but it's pretty soulless as far as losing all of the DIC music and all of the extra character depth given to the cast in the US dub.
Gavin Richardson
No shit
Mason Cox
This is LARP. All the "big" stuff airing next season are sequels, and some of them already on Toonami.
Juan Richardson
Seriously, next season is looking bland as far as sequels go, hoping some of the newer series are good. Psycho Pass 3 will at least be good for a laugh probably, but otherwise it's a low energy season for hype unless you're a MHAtard or SAOfag. Ain't nobody excited to see more Food Wars, Chihayafuru is fine, but not great, and I'm pretty sure SDS is still Netflix'd into oblivion. Also nobody was really clamoring for more Psycho Pass, the response is more of a "nice I guess".
I know this is might be off topic. But a few minutes ago my heart started racing at the thought of being drunk in approximately 19 hours from now on Toonami night around Food Wars and thought I would share now.
>wednesday night accidentally started reading up on SCP entries >then some lets plays >and then youtubes of some SCP entries and shit >thoroughly creeped out >thursday morning had waking dreams about my garage >day was normal otherwise >thursday night had repeated short dreams about various things that can be SCP tier but not the actual entries right now please note i woke up between each of these >my old world of warcraft physical security key telling me when it was safe to wake up or not with each press >my nintendo ds with etrian odyssey inserted constantly giving out bloody screams of incoming death, opening it caused a reflection of various mutilated characters appearing behind me >this leather pouch of silver coins my grandmother gave me was never ending but the more i took out the darker it got outside >nintendo switch turning on in the dock with fierce deity link in that little window from the top of the dock and partial screen popping out and pulling it out had a bloody smiling 1986 link using fierce diety head as a puppet on a stick and reaching for the power button caused fierce deity to animate Even now, friday into saturday I am sitting here at 3 am kinda scared to go to sleep and I know my cat is making noise downstairs because mice move in this time of year and going downstairs to check up on her and her not being phased by a flashlight being shown on her and shes just looking up at mice is totally normal holy shit my fucking keyboard tray is moving around more and more is this real
alcohol tomorrow during the block might be my end if any of you are actually real and not truman show stand ins i want to let you know that your illusion of good times for 6 or so years are apparently the best timetoo long
God I fucking wish we were that lucky. Unfortunately that probably wasn’t even in the top 5 because the anime community at large has shit taste.
Robert Hill
Doesn't matter because it's locked down by Amazon. Whoever is acquiring anime for Amazon has really good taste, it's just unfortunate they have no idea how to market their shows to a wider audience.
Michael Anderson
He obviously means MHA S4 which you memelords have been saying wouldn’t happen. Not saying the larp is real, but I do believe MHA is coming
Ethan Taylor
is it true? ultra instinct abandoned after the tourny?
Charles Scott
its not abandoned, just benched. in the Broly movie Goku briefly tries to use ultra-instinct but just goes SSB instead, likewise in the manga Goku has yet to figure out a reliable means of getting back into the ultra flow-state he achieved against Jiren that triggers MUI, Super DB Heroes has him activate it every time he badly loses a fight but Heroes is basically Z movie tier.
Rest assured that by the time they eventually catch up to EoZ like Toriyama intends, Goku will be able to use Ultra Instinct at-will
Charles Lee
It’s not like it matters. It’s going to be cast aside as a scrub powerup in the next series since Goku will need another power level to ascend to
Grayson Hill
To anyone still awake for whatever reason, Samurai Jack is on right now and its the techno episode. Jack is fighting mecha sound dude in a mud pit with all the kids watching I know I seen this in the animated version of The Dark Knight Returns But this Jack episode came out before that But the comic came out in 1986. Was this fight scene in that comic?
Ethan Allen
>Also, Crystal was widely reviled (to the extent that they pretty much said "Fuck it" and killed it after adapting the Bureau of Bad Behavior season). They're adapting the rest as movies....but they hired back the old character designer this time around. I think Toei acknowledged how much they fucked up with Crystal given how big the Dragonball revival has been so this is them making some sort of an effort to redeem themselves.
Connor Ross
Who's this titty beast with the cute fang?
Zachary Miller
>It worked for Black Clover No it didn't. Its been underperforming and nobody really gives a shit about it which is even more embarrassing since TPN and Kimetsu are outselling it and garnered more attention and acclaim despite the latter initially selling less than it. The main problem with Stone is that its just not for everyone and this how nothing to do with it being action orientated but more so that its general concept is not very interesting to most people and the fact that much like BC it had a false start and doesn't truly begin until Senku ditches those two retards. >Fire Force will be able to coast along with its mediocre story with its animation quality. Discussions of it has gone way down since the end of Hibana's story arc and petered out with Tamaki being a regular.
Brayden Martin
>Discussions of it has gone way down since the end of Hibana's story arc and petered out with Tamaki being a regular. Sadly and hilariously true, the new ep thread on Yea Forums has been up since yesterday and only has 136 replies right now.
Caleb Foster
And also I don't believe it's being dubbed. Same as Dororo and Banana Fish before it.
Parker White
Well to it's defense, it is near the end of the season so people might be more excited to talk about the shows that ended. But no that's really fucking bad. I've seen shows that were hyped then slowly died, and this is really really bad. Threads are ghost towns.
Zachary Bell
People on here called it predicting that once viewers saw how mediocre the series is the hype would die. But I doubt anyone saw it happening so abruptly.
Gavin Wilson
>more so that its general concept is not very interesting to most people I feel like the stats contradict you here, while the anime isn't breaking any records it's doing pretty well, especially given how low budget it feels sometimes with the animation.
Zachary Turner
That sounds amazing Wish I got to see that unfold
Brandon Gutierrez
That's not true
Landon Lee
Also that's wrong
Charles Mitchell
Black Clover went from total unknown to moderate seller, so yea it worked. It didn’t take it to #1, and no one expected it to.
Josiah Stewart
I thought it would at least reach to about episode 20 or so before interest really fell off. As someone else said, I figured the animation could carry it some extra distance but apparently not
Holy shit Starship Troopers is on sci-fi, haven't seen that movie in ages. Also, another Starship Troopers anime when? Maybe if Rooster Teeth made a Starship Troopers series instead of gen-cock I'd actually care a bit.
