Toonami General #1

TTGG stated last week that he would be absent tonight and next Saturday. The topic got overshadowed by the schedule news and no one ever volunteered to do the job. We need someone willing to trip up and handle it. Figure that out before the block starts.

It's not even 7:50, retard. This is my job. Fuck off.

The best time of the week has finally arrived! I can't believe Toonami is only an hour long tonight. What a trainwreck things have become.

Hello fans, we are here yet again for another installment of “Worst Toonami Performances of All Time!” Last week was little of note, Shenmue did acceptable and the rest of the night did average. This week, Shenmue dipped slightly but still stayed strong for its final episode. The rest of the night was mostly a repeat of last week, with AoT continuing its massive loss of viewers off Shenmue which set the tone for everything else. I’d like to say things will get better now that AoT is done, but they won’t.

12:00a - Shenmue 261 0.13

12:30a - Attack on Titan 198 0.10

1:30a - Lupin the Third Pt.6 160 0.08

2:00a - One Piece 149 0.07

2:30a - One Piece 141 0.07

Shenmue was already clean and clear of being a majority holder of the top 10 list, but leaving on a high note without a final entrance is nice too.

Tonight, Koro-Sensei gets a one time shot at joining the list. Will he? Tune in next week to find out!

It gets worse. Well kind of, it’s still only an hour long, but now you have to find something to do for 30 mins before the hour starts

Doing this shit anonymously is fine too. Next two weeks are pretty much like a marathon night.

4 threads max.

Real thread here:

Not quite. I've actually never seen beyond the first episode of Primal before, so I'm quite excited for it.

I saw that TTGG was gonna be on vacay this week. I'm just a phoneposter so I don't want to do the thread

Attached: GetoGojo.jpg (206x206, 10.45K)

So here me out, 5/14 and 5/20 have Primal as the lead which will murder ratings. But what if 5/27 they do a Memorial Day marathon to burn the rest of it then start S2 the following week?

I find it interesting they make a distinct note on the schedule that this is S1

Actually some guy did say he would do it >

We already decided last week puppetmaster would do it. Now we have 2 threadsplitting retards. We're going to be moved to /trash/ before TTGG comes back.

Nah, 5. Shitposting alone pre-block will fuel a full thread and then some
Ah, tonight's gonna suck. At least AssClass is a high note

Speaking of high notes or the lack thereof, I'm 6 episodes from finishing Shippuden. I'm even more resolved to pretend Boruto is only a single movie and not the Food Wars EL HERMANO special: the series

>next two weeks
More like next 2 months minimum. Extend that out even further if AssClass has a bad replacement

We have no hope of any decent replacements any time soon. We're just stalling for time until Housing complex.

Doomed?

Still down to do it, but since the threadshitters will do it anyway I'll be here in the event they get bored and we actually don't have a new thread @550 posts/entering page 9 at some point tonight. I'd rather not make a third thread to split even further

Ah well, missed in the shuffle. If he is here and is willing to take over for the rest of the night then go for it

>Shenmue actually pulled it off and didn't take a majority or even half of the worst lead in spots
Nice.

YOU WILL DANCE FOR ME

Yes

Will Primal reruns kick Black Lotus out of its throne?

It's the best original by far, I wonder if it would be worth staying for the rerun. I guess I'll catch it this week anyway for Bebop's sake.

sorry guys but i'm still finish up last week's stuff, quit walking for another 20 minutes or so while i finish bebop

Tell you what. You get the next one, I get the one after that and so on so what few actual discussions happen here aren't shat on by us duking it out by retards. Sound good?

Why can't Bort come back?

didnt demarco say that bebop was the last resort during the late 2020-early 2021 drought?

Leading with Primal just seems like such a weird move. Why not just continue leading with Assclass?

It’s not. Compared to Fena and Black Lotus it was great, but on its own merits it’s pretty dull

I'm down, trolling aside I don't actually want to kill the threads. Don't know if OP will comply.

Primal s2 is due this summer sometime, and i would assume its going to be apart of toonami this time

WHERE ARE MY CAKES AND BREADS BAKER

Nobody wants it back

I still vote for this guy.

Ragyo is seeking an unpaid intern to occasionally lick the perspiration from her exposed sternum. Would you compete for the job?

If OP is then we should be good

you dont need to be the OP. theres like 3 or so willing to do it without being a faggot while doing so

THEY ARE IN THE OVEN PLEASE BE PATIENT FOR 4 MORE HOURS

Absolutely based.

I’m OP, I never saw the post about the tripfag that volunteered to make the threads so I just made this one early to avoid potential drama. I won’t make any further threads

I hope Shenmue repeats after Harasaki leaves hit record lows so they pull it and I don't have to deal with seeing the depressing end credits for half the series with her gone. Fuck I'm so angry and sad.

It literally my destiny to do this.

GENTLEMAN! WE HAVE COME TO TERMS

Discovery is gonna fucking can us.

Imagine if it still premieres on Sunday because Genndy is a manbaby who doesn’t want it to premier next to superior anime

oh yeah sundays are premier nights

Is this just our assumption based on what we know, or is he actually butthurt that the superior Asians have more popular cartoons?

Peace and cooperation feels good.

The ultimate alliance!

At this point, is it even a bad thing? The block can’t access any anime anyway aside from a few fringe examples that aren’t enough to sustain the block. I think this is a good jumping off point for it anyway

>nerfed hinata tits and an even more annoying sakura

It’s what he said in an interview about Jack. He thought Jack shouldn’t have premiered with anime

>bort and hinny literally sucked hinata's tits dry so they shrunk

He's got nothing against anime but he delusionally believes that the final season of Jack would've had better ratings and reception if it hadn't been on Toonami.

Boogiepop on Toonami when?

>*naruto, bort and hinny

Are we going to survive this year?

>AssClass gets its one night of lead-in glory
Even if you end up being a shitty lead-in, I'm proud of you

Yes. But at what cost?

Unlikely. Even if we do, we won't like what we have.

You know, for April Fool's next year (if Toonami manages to huff enough hopium to survive until then), they should just pick the worst episode of whatever anime they have the rights to and play it over and over for the entire block. No pre-announcement, no leaks. In fact even better; play the first episode of an anime they still have like Bebop or IGPX first, -then- loop that garbage episode again and again. It'll probably be enough to shitcan Toonami the week after, but it'd go out with a shitposting bang

I think he just didn’t want such a large anime crowd to watch it so he wouldn’t immediately get called out for ripping off Gurren Lagann for his ending

It's over

Attached: ToonamiWillNotDie.jpg (1000x1521, 1.08M)

At this point it doesn't even sound like we have anything known in the pipeline that isn't an original. It's going to take awhile for AoT's other episodes, and the other seasons of shows we've had sound like they're off the table now too which were always the easy fallback for new slots. I'm not a doomposter but I am curious what will happen through the year. It will be interesting to see. Primal being the lead over Ass Class sure was...

It’s done damn good for its age and availability, I think it would have been a fine lead way back in 2020

>S-Cry-Ed Episode 1
>Fena final ep for 3.5 hours

The next April Fools Toonami lands on isn’t till 2029 my dude

lol

True, but that means people would expect it even less

Honestly I think a straight-up Fena marathon would piss me off more

I'm kind of looking forward to extra rest I'll be getting

Attached: 1447956905170.jpg (460x345, 23.29K)

The only hypothetical choices they might still have access to is Yashahime and Food Wars S5, two turds no one wants to watch anyway.

Even those are in question though, considering neither is starting tonight

We already had one and it was annoying enough. Can't believe they did a complete subversion of what I was hoping Fena as a character/personality would be. They even made her fucking hair black at the end to be artsy. Fuck you Fena team.

I'm really glad for the show and still fairly surprised the /tg/ reception for it has been mostly positive

Same. I have really needed to start going to bed earlier anyway

>Fena.
>Fena!
>Fena...
>Fena~
>Fena!

They blew their entire diminished yearly budget in January.

I wonder how bad the ratings will get.
