Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders will replace Attack on Titan on July 29.
Gundam: Iron Blooded Orphans S2 will replace Tokyo Ghoul in October.
Adult Swim is funding two new 6 episode seasons of FLCL. Set for 2018.
Last week, we started the healing process of having Jack out of 11. While it wasn't a huge boost, most agreed the short notice was to blame and we would see more improvement this week. And instead things actually did worse, with Kai pulling some record lows. Perhaps there really was no cure for the cancer Toonami has.

Ha ha get the fuck out.

Dragon Ball Meme reruns are rerunning this block into the ground
Mason Collins
I admire your dedication.
Alexander Rivera
OP is one of the whiniest faggots of all time.
Levi Collins

Brayden James
What's gonna Replace, Ghost in the Shell?
Angel Wood
2nd gig probably
Nathaniel Campbell
Are the ratings normally that low during summer?
Jace Jenkins
Weekly reminder that One Piece is the best selling manga WORLDWIDE!
Angel Fisher
I'd like Bebop or Dandy, but we all know that Demarco hates those shows and refuses to rerun them.
Aaron Powell
>during x season Never has been an excuse. People blame all four seasons for bad ratings
Noah Murphy
No one will ever see a Sawyer/Chinish/Lofton signoff.
Juan Ross
Honestly for all the shit you guys gave Home Movies, Jack and Venture's ratings are far more atrocious. Low ratings in a historically dead slot is one thing but in the VB's case it's just horrible. Nothing in the 10 PM slot should ever be that low especially that close to the block.

Asher Hughes
>That Venture Bros. performance compared to Family Guy
It's like seeing a moldy Big Mac outsell a perfect steak.
Ryder Evans
I know you're always posting this for some (You)s, but there is a noticeable difference between the One Piece manga and the One Piece anime.
Never trust Toei.
Tyler Jenkins
>Nothing above 900k I know we've been memeing this for awhile but it really is almost over this time, huh?
Jordan Campbell
Where you belong:
Adam Smith
Could they add My Hero Academia to get more people?
Jacob Morris
Can anyone explain the numbers? the first number is the number of thousand viewers but what are the next two?
Justin Young
As if anything could save this sinking ship Though that or LWA would be pretty welcome additions when Lupin & IBO S2 ends
Asher Powell

Anthony Collins
awww look at those ratings! You poor toonamifags. Meanwhile...
>One Piece Fuji TV July 9 (Sun) 9:30 >rating of 6.6
HOW WILL TOONAMIFAGS EVER RECOVER
Jose Richardson
They need more Monster or fight of the week episodes. Dragonball is OK in that regard but the first 2 arcs are just retellings of the 2 movies so anyone who saw them (Most of the fans) are not gonna want to sit around and watch them.
Jose Flores
Wew that's a new one, thanks lad id pay good money for that spinoff, shame even main BL material is rarely made
Josiah Allen
Nope, Funimation gave it to Hulu. Anyways, that generic shit is what's killing the block
Isaac Hughes
>brand new episode >aired where it's actually popular at a decent time What's next, you gonna tell me the Super Bowl got good ratings?
Benjamin Richardson
>confessing >not holding the voice thing to her throat >not wearing the choker one
Andrew Reyes
How come season 2 is only sub while the Dub is already out?
Ethan Cook
She confessing something important, but you can't hear it.
Hudson Long
Getting a new chapter every month, last one 10 pages[/spoilers]
Mason Young
Funimation is using the dub to sell their subscription service.
Jack Brown
Because subscription services love to find ways to push people to illegal streams
Aaron Lee
Is that why almost every anime on Hulu is Sub only? I just want to watch The Slayers in bed damnit!
Caleb Hill
The decimal is the percentage of people who tuned into the show out of total viewers. Say that a hundred million people are watching television on a given and that twenty million of them watch a show.
So it'd look like:
20000 20.0 15000
The third number is the total viewers of that target demographi; in this case, the 18-49 age bracket.
So Kai had 741,000 total viewers for the midnight showing of which 446,000 were the key 18-49 demographic and slightly over a third of a percent of the entire television audience tuned in to watch it.
Blake James
>How dare they make us pay to watch something those greedy corporate bastards!
Isaiah Garcia
>pay for our extremely limited service!
If they want paying customers, stop holding shit back you can find in 5 second with a google search
Lucas Phillips

Lincoln Torres
This subscription shit & the illegal streams is what's really killing the block.
John Reed
They aren't really making us. We can torrent any of it as easily as ever. They might as well seed the ass/srt files themselves.
Tyler Reyes
>Senpai Guy that low
wew
Ethan Foster
In other news Viceland UK is airing two episodes Cowboy Bebop every weekday at midnight (right now)
So from what I see & It looks like 11pm FG hit 1M, then we lose about 15% of that going into Super and it steadily goes down from there. Since the last ep. of Titan is this Saturday, I wonder if he's just going to drop GITS and put Titan there or are we just going to drop Titan altogether?
It's like he made some bets which would've been smart 3 years ago, but are backfiring in the worst way now.
John Edwards
I can see why your ratings threads dont even last a day anymore.
God damn. Seeing those ratings made me think of that anime block that was on syfy for like 3 days on a monday at 5 in the morning.
William Green
They'd last longer if we would just turn them into One Piece threads like everyone wants.
David Long
You mean Chiller? I don't think that we're looking at a Chiller end right away, but this is not a good sign.
At this point, just about everyone everywhere is free of school/work obligations, but if we're this bad now with no school to deal with, I can only imagine how bad August will be when people actually go back.
Joshua Bell
After how bad AoT did during the marathon I don't see it getting a rerun
Matthew Morales
>familk guy is a perfect steak Yeah ok
Parker Harris
The manga maybe but Toei made the series downright unwatchable. They spend almost 1/3rd of an episode on recap and the episode to chapter ratio is downright abysmal and makes every action and plot advancement feel unnecessarily dragged out. OP honestly needs the Kai treatment if it ever wants to be watchable again.
Noah Gray
> slightly over a third of the entire television audience tuned in
wait, that's really good right?
Robert Thompson
a third of a PERCENT
that's really bad
Owen Barnes
August is typically one of Toonami's strongest months out of the year because new shows get injected around that time.
Lucas Stewart
What's their schedule like?
Lincoln Cook
New shows for this August >Jojo Part 3 >IBO Season 2 It really is over, isn't it?
Evan Baker
There's also this:
Leo Bell
Toonami's dead Bury it Consider it mercy.
Even as a Jojo fan, it's obvious that DeMarco fucked up way beyond salvation with a lot of shitty animes.
Aaron Martinez
>outsell
Samuel Peterson
IBO S2 comes in October when TG: Root A is over with. Those are gonna be the last two anime we get this year. 2018 looks a bit different since the Buu Saga should be done by then, but since after August, DeMarco has grounds to run a marathon every month (with 2 in December), it remains to be seen.
Jose Mitchell
Don't get me wrong, I liked part 1 and thought part 2 was god tier for me but even I know that Part three's gonna be a ratings disaster. Normies'll tune in for the first few weeks because 'muh memes'. Once they realize they'd be here for over a year, they'll either back off the series entirely or binge it online. DESU, I'm not really looking forward to part 3 either. Part 1 was kinda slow but Jonathan, Dio and Speedwagon made it alot more enjoyable. Part 2 was pretty fun by itself but Joseph really made watching it worthwhile. I just don't think Jotaro'll pique my interest like the previous Jojo's did.
Charles Sanders
That all sounds just awful.
Brody Kelly
The only real way to stem the bleeding now is to go further back and pick up lesser known shows and just keep DBZ and Super as staples and rotate them out every 12 weeks. After IBO S2, we'll get one opening, because everything else will still be running then. They might use the opening for FLCL S2 & 3 or maybe that's the point - lasting long enough to get those two shows aired and then dying.
Jackson Sanders
how is twitch doing so much better than toonami with anime
Hot damn. With every studio wanting to capitalize on their own streaming service, Toonami is in a really tough spot.
Someone should do a SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) analysis on Toonami. I'm on vacation for once, so I just might do it if the thread sticks around long enough.
Camden Barnes
>Toonami used to advertise the very service killing it
Tyler Diaz
For the first two years, no less.
Nicholas Lee
>DeMarco has grounds to run a marathon every month (with 2 in December), it remains to be seen. The fuck?
Doesn't he know marathons are ratings cancer?
Easton Bailey
He doesn't seem to care.
Nathaniel Thomas
He must know, but don't you know how important Halloween is? It's when people go and spend time with their families!
As it stands:
>September: Labor Day >October: Halloween >November: Thanksgiving >December: Christmas/New Years Eve
Anyone have the episode counts for our currently airing shows?
Michael Jenkins
Titan Finale's this week and yet I have absolutely no interest in watching.
Lincoln Collins
If Luffy can't defeat Big Mom, how does he expect to defeat Kaido?
Cooper Martinez
Does my waifu survive?
Brandon Howard
Pretty sure Toonami doesn't have a say in what ads run, otherwise they'd stop showing these ads for hip aids.
William Reed
>twitter trends Basically meaningless
Lincoln Stewart
With the help of his nakama. TL note: nakama means friends
Lincoln White
Yeah but the network probably does. They had to have realized that CR was going to come into direct conflict with the block it was advertising on.
Aaron Barnes
Advertising money is money to them. You seem to forget that Cartoon Network is OWNED by Time Warner, but actively gets fucked over by Warner Bros and fucks over Warner Bros because of advertising and toy profits.
Chase Thompson
>S Huge nostalgia factor >W Timeslot Once a week Lineup Demarco >O Very occasionally gets some kind of world premiere >T Streaming Demarco
Isaac Morris
Have you not read/watched part 3 before or something?
Asher Howard
Apparently she shows up like a year from now
Connor Cooper
Nope. The block airing Pts 1 & 2 was the first time watching the series.
Colton Phillips
Fear the day when this airs on Toonami.
Hunter Russell
Give it to me straight anons, as somebody who doesn't keep up on ratings, what are the chances Toonami survives the next year?
Isaiah Carter
They'll drag this block's morbid remains across the line into 2018 at least until FLCL S2 & 3 airs. Only after FLCL bombs (which it will) will they finally pull the plug and let this block experience the sweet release of death. Buckle up, user, it's gonna be a long, painful ride.
Jack Nelson
It's funny how r/Toonami is telling themselves that those shows will help the block.
> Those shows had great ratings when they were on and their return will help bring the night up.
> Uhh, excuse me. But didn't they suffer from horrible retention from their lead-in? Toonami's ratings are noticeably lower now, so do you really think bringing those shows is a good idea? Hell, people here complained about how they were hurting the block when they were on, so it might make a bad situation worse.
> No really, look at their ratings and the demographics. They did fine and will do fine if their fans come back.
Andrew Martin
>We only have 1 episode of Attack on Titan season 2 left
Wat
Aiden Turner
No show can help the block as long as it's being spearheaded by reruns, be it Samurai Jack or Super. Seriously, whose brilliant idea was it to start the block with fucking reruns?
Asher Martinez
>After Tokyo Ghoul and Attack on Titan we won't have any new shows until half a year into 2018
Welp, we had a good run Though i am looking forward to both IBO and Jojo along with HxH
Brayden James
It was a simulcast dub so pretty much everyone who is truly interested in this show saw the finale online weeks ago.
Cooper Parker
Looks like Demarco is the weak link. The timing is suspect, but when else would it run? I had read something about Crunchyroll lowering the quality of their streams on purpose, but people still seem to be signing up.
Jackson Brown
nah, the simulcast dub episodes are only put up the day after the toonami airing
Sebastian Taylor
The subs are still out though.
Luke Nelson
2018 is looking to be the final year
Austin Gonzalez
It's pretty funny going back into their old ratings threads and seeing the first post shitting on how bad Jojo or IBO is doing
