Just a heads up for the next two weeks, the end of the year holidays really throw off the ratings schedule, the threads can be delayed as late as Thursday.
December 24th will be a rerun marathon of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.
December 31st will be a rerun marathon of DBZ Kai.
Dragonball Super will premiere at 8pm starting January 7th. That new weekly episode will then rerun the same night on Toonami at 11:30pm. Toonami expands 30 minutes to accommodate this.
DBZ Kai Buu saga will premiere at midnight starting January 7th.
Gundam Unicorn RE:0096 will replace IBO January 7th at 1am. This means without some unexpected schedule change, Toonami will not see anything new until June at the earliest.
A new season of Samurai Jack is being made for Adult Swim Toonami. 10 episodes in length, TV14 minimum, set to premier 2017.
Adult Swim is funding two new 6 episode seasons of FLCL. Expected release is late 2017/early 2018.
Last week, Jojo broke the neo Toonami record for largest show to show drop with a massive 44% loss of viewers from DBZ. This week we had a special one time double dose of new Jojo, and the ratings were much better. Only thing of note is One Piece getting BTFO by the OPM rerun.

Sebastian Johnson
You think Toonami would ever pick up Keijo!!!?
Lincoln White
AS made a bump shitting on it so I'd say no. Also we know Demarco is against anything gross, and anything not gay as fuck fits that bill in Demarco's eyes
Zachary Cruz
two more weeks until Super and DB Kai show One Punch Meme how to draw like KLK did
Luke Gomez
>Made a bump shitting on it Really? That's kinda pathetic.
Luis Long
did anyone mention that ghost in the shell us replacing one punch man in the rerun slot once it's over? because it is.
Evan Collins
what did i miss
Nathaniel Thomas
what it do tg ratings
Tyler Richardson
>Ghost in the Shell again >Not Space Dandy
Caleb Jones
No nips, BD sales are already substandard. Not a chance.
Camden Fisher
Reminder that Boruto joining the block is inevitable.
John Mitchell
GiTS SAC will replace OPM btw. Cool. but I really like GiTS. so it will give me a reason to stay until the end of the block again.
Wonder why JoJo was up this week. Were people just interested in seeing Phantom Blood come to an end? Cause there's a pretty big drop-off from that episode to Battle Tendency's first.
Cooper Jenkins
>More marathons. Just play a fucking anime movie or something. Jesus Christ.
Daniel Jackson
Jojo is pretty polarizing.
Oliver Howard
>Only thing of note is One Piece getting BTFO by the OPM rerun. Gahahahahahahaha! Holy shit!
Sebastian Reyes
I'm okay with that.
Matthew Thompson
Doesnt seem to be uploaded
Basically they showed an image from the show then said if you want to "help Adult Swim save anime, watch One Punch Man Saturday nights"
Colton Sullivan
The thing is, Viz is currently 125 episodes behind in Shippuden and I don't think they have any experience with simuldubs. So even if it is inevitable, I don't see it happening for about 2 1/2 years.
Incidentally, 2 1/2 years is about how long it'll be until Hunter x Hunter finishes. So there you go.
Jordan Wilson
Literally why? Both of these marathons are 100% justified because they land directly on significant holidays. These threads should be empty the next two Saturdays
Aaron Wood
I'd prefer Naburo.
Christopher Carter
>block is declining in ratings >I know lets toss on one of the shows that could hardly pull 400k viewers last time it aired
2017 off to a grand start
Easton Williams
It's because there's a fucking Hollywood adaptation of it coming out in March. If there was ever a time to air it again, this is it.
Adrian Bailey
>T- Toonami is dying, guys!
Been hearing that for half a decade.
Henry Garcia
>let's kill the block because of a mediocre film in theaters
Gr8
Andrew Price
>half a decade
Fuck, it feels like just yesterday
Joshua Powell
Started college right around when Toonami returned.
I'm in grad school now.
Isaac Sanchez
>implying people won't go to see this >implying it won't get praised by "normies"
Hudson Price
And your gonna keep hearing it till it finally happens
Christopher Evans
>kill the block >by airing a rerun at 3am, which has been a throwaway slot ever since Tenchi Muyo GXP ended You're overreacting.
Parker Morales
Finally a chance to post this.
Luke Torres
Ok someone straighten me out, did ASA ever air Princess Resurrection at some point or am I remembering shit that never happened?
Christian Hernandez
Nope, Princess Resurrection aired on Anime Network.
Wyatt Johnson
>(you) >screencapping your own post and trying to make it a meme
Adam Lopez
>Toonami finally dies >"we told you Toonami was going to die"
Landon Barnes
Nope, I don't even think Princess Resurrection got a dub till after Toonami was back on the air, even though it came out in like 2007
Easton Martin
Exactly, we are going to be right one day, and that's the day you will have wished you listened
Mason Edwards
Ay nigga, it's obviously cause best Jojo is appearing
Jonathan Sullivan
That episode of ATHF is on
Nathan Bennett
TONIGHT
Brandon Price
Which one?
Zachary Morales
The one that don't matter
Nathan Reyes
Then why were BT's views lower than PB's?
Ethan Mitchell
How slow are the threads gonna be?
Are you really gonna spend the first part of your Christmas watching JoJo with strangers on Sup Forums?
Henry Harris
Those were the casuals who don't know about Bullet Ripple.
Aaron Martinez
I think we might be able to break the all time low record. BT is pretty dry anyway, and even the biggest NEETs have shit to do on Christmas
Luke Torres
Is this the first Toonami to directly fall on Christmas Eve?
I mean, technically Christmas night, even.
Matthew Hall
They are showing every Jojo ep to date on the Toonami Stream this week, they know everyone is gonna watch Scavengers and then book it.
Ryder Foster
I may be wrong about this since they could just be showing the first five eps for preparation of the marathon.
Christian Roberts
Honestly no one is tuning in just to see that
Jonathan Murphy
>SIX long runners >people still watch and defend this >they try to deflect with b-b-but some of them are only a few years worth of episodes instead of a decade
Gavin Hill
>not thinking of Toonami General as your real family
Kayden Hall
yay Sarada
Jack Cox
Apparently the last chapter of AgK just came out. Cat tats dies the exact same way she did in the anime
David James
So now that 2016 is pretty much done. How did Toonami do this year on a scale 1 to 10?
Matthew Cook
Shit/10
Mod faggotry is getting unbearable
James Flores
6/10 HxH dub finally materialized, Champloo got out of broadcast rights hell, JoJos on American television.
Nathan Brooks
Joseph saving toonami.
Henry Gutierrez
I'll be here around the second half. not like you spend time with the family until 2 or 3 in the morning
Christian Green
That's just the usual drop from 12:30 to 1am that always happens regardless of what shows are in those slots. Besides, the second Jojo this week did better than the last episode of IBO did the previous week.
Owen Ross
There are over 7 years worth of Naruto left so I don't think Toonami will last that long
Benjamin Thomas
Toonami: 7/10 Toonami Generals: 2/10
Gavin Sullivan
I wasn't expecting the backdoor to update this early. I also wasn't expecting the backdoor to FUCKING SURPRISE ME LIKE THIS SO DAMN MUCH.
Here's the new Mon-Thurs lineup.
12:00 - Robot Chicken x2
12:30 - Aqua Teen x2
1:00 - The Eric Andre Show
1:15 - SPACE GHOST COAST TO COAST
First off, AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH OH MY GOD. Second, pairing it with Eric Andre is a pretty good idea. Third, weird how Squidbillies has gone from airing almost as much as any other Williams Street original to not airing at all (it loses its Sunday slot for SuperMansion
Space Ghost starts with early CN era episodes (2017, by the way, is CN's 25th year)
Friday schedule is the same as the weekdays except for this one change.
1:00 - DREAM CORP LLC
1:15 - Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell
New Saturday schedule, making room for an expanded Toonami and 8pm Dragon Ball Super.
8:00 - NEW Dragon Ball Super
8:30 - American Dad x2
9:30 - Bob's Burgers x2
10:30 - Family Guy x2
11:30 - Toonami
3:30 - AD x2
4:30 - Bob's x2
5:30 - KOTH
Niiiiiiiiiice. Pretty sure that's the earliest American Dad has ever aired on AS. I'm liking how they're needing Cleveland Show less and less. Poor KOTH, for the one time it gets to air before Toonami it gets shoved back to 5:30am after a month.
New Sunday schedule starting the 7th.
11:00 - Rick and Morty
11:30 - Robot Chicken x2
12:00 - NEW [to adult swim] SuperMansion
12:30 - The Boondocks
I guess we're getting new Robot Chicken soon. If they could air two new episodes every week and get it over with faster that'd be cool. The premieres don't matter when you air it every weekday at midnight, right?
OTA and Xavier return to DVR Theater at 4am on the 9th, but why? I mean, it's a good pairing, but we had it literally last month. Bring back Home Movies.
In short, HOLY SHIT. That is all.
Michael Martin
what the fuck
Grayson Stewart
>Mon - Thurs >12:00 - Robot Chicken x2 >12:30 - Aqua Teen x2 >1:00 - The Eric Andre Show >1:15 - SPACE GHOST COAST TO COAST Well that's certainly a shakeup. RIP Squids though. Really wish they would cut down on Robot Chicken instead.
>Saturday >8:00 - NEW Dragon Ball Super >8:30 - American Dad x2 >5:30 - KOTH Wonder how Super will do in that slot, since honestly, everything that has aired in the first hour of AS on Saturdays in the past 4 years has seemed to fail. Also, RIP Hank.
>Sunday >12:00 - NEW [to adult swim] SuperMansion Wasn't this an AS pilot at one point in time that got picked up by some online network? >12:30 - The Boondocks Hell yeah
>OTA and Xavier return to DVR Theater at 4am on the 9th, but why? I mean, it's a good pairing, but we had it literally last month. Bring back Home Movies. I don't know what their deal is with that. They aired Home Movies for a week at 4 AM and didn't even finish Season 1 before pulling it off for Halloween-themed stuff for October. But then, they never put it back on. I'm pretty sure it did better in ratings here than it did on Saturday nights a few years ago too. I can't imagine OTA and Xavier reruns for the second time in less than two months are doing much better.
Cooper Rivera
Truth be told, kinda wish they'd have gone with FLCL into Arise Alternative Architecture in OVA order if promoting the movie was their goal. Now even the rerun slot is locked for an entire year.
William Collins
This. Also they're airing it at 3 AM, so it's really a non-issue. I'm just glad to see GITS grace the airwaves once more.
Parker Lee
thank fucking god, i hope they don't get another season though.
John Fisher
>cleveland show finally off the schedule
Oliver Turner
What an unexpected turn of events
Jackson Flores
Unless, AS decides to replace McFarlane reruns with originals, I really don't care what they show half the time. I'll DVR Space Ghost and other stuff I like, but that's it.
Matthew Smith
Why is Squidbillies getting the short end of the stick? They just finished the new season.
Nathaniel Russell
its like christians with their doomsday shot
Nathan Evans
>I wasn't expecting the backdoor to update this early.
Anthony White
Space Ghost will be dropped within a week. Remember how shitty it did when they played it after that guy died?
Ian Turner
You can't blame IBO for that when Jojo lost 44% of the viewers from DBZ
Nathaniel Hughes
But wait, I thought she died in the manga after having her womb eaten
Parker Wilson
Space Dandy isn't getting a live action movie a week after One Punch Man ends.
Carter King
>Space Ghost will be dropped within a week. Remember how shitty it did when they played it after that guy died? Yeah, but that was more due to the fact that they changed the schedule a few hours before the episode aired and did a shit job of publicizing the fact that they had done so. The tv listings still said "The Cleveland Show" or whatever at that time, so casual viewers who tuned in expecting that got pissed and changed the channel and most OG Adult Swim/Space Ghost fans or potential viewers didn't even realize the episode was on.
Nicholas Ross
I wonder how DB Super's premiere ratings will fare given that Toonami can only promote it during what will probably be the two lowest-rated weeks of the year.
But then again, it's DB, so I imagine Adult Swim will be hyping it all over the place.
Matthew Diaz
They are airing commercials for it even during the normal AS block so it should do at least as good as Z.
Charles Rodriguez
I didn't even know they had aired Space Ghost that night until I saw someone had uploaded it onto myspleen
Thomas Johnson
I'm more interested in how Toonami will fare leading off with a rerun from a few hours prior.
Aiden Reed
seriously this. That can't be a good idea.
Thomas Wilson
The weird thing is Adult Swim and Funimation aren't promoting the 8pm showing at all despite being the premiere.
Angel Lee
Right? Wouldn't it make more sense just to rerun last week's Kai in that slot like they used to?
Chase Jackson
I feel like it will do the same as when Kai was airing at that slot.
Matthew Russell
Why would they even premiere it in that first slot? Literally everything Adult Swim has put there bombs. Kai, King of the Hill, One Piece, The Oblongs, Home Movies, Aqua Teen, Sit Down Shut Up. All fail in the ratings.
John Collins
No, I feel the Super premiere at 8pm is a compromise move with Toei since they appeared to want it in a timeslot accessible to kids.
Austin Robinson
I'd rather we skip the rest of Shitpudding straight into Bort desu senpai
Oliver Phillips
Super is literally a children's show with a US toyline. 8pm is likely a compromise to catch some of that CN runoff. Having it only on Toonami doesn't make sense when there are toys to sell
Liam Mitchell
Likely one of Funimation's "we know it's fucking retarded but are still gonna force them to do it" things they are so fond of
Caleb Price
>let's skip Shitpudding right into the kiddie shit reboot version
