Toonami Is Getting Outlaw Star

Will it save the block?

Is Demarco just pretending to be retarded?

Or is this a desperation move?

I'm 25 and just rewatched for this first time since 3rd grade original run on Toonami. It does not hold up really.

So desperation move?

They need that anime where girls fight using only their boobs and butts.

This. Without nostalgia goggles the show is pretty meh. The first few episodes are great, but after Hilda kicks the bucket things start to go down hill

One of Sunrise's lesser 90s shows, it's not as bad as Gundam Wing at least, I would give it a 6 or 7 out of 10 today.

>mfw you're probably that one cunt who keeps spamming that Brown catgirl every Saturday
>mfw your post

Queen's Blade?

It's just replacing GitS so it won't hurt the block at least. But this is clearly a desperation move

If they advertise correctly, yes.

Outlaw Star was full of flaws; but it had so much genius behind it. Hell three-quarters of the characters were 'tragic', space-exploration was scary as fuck, robotics were kind of gross, they even had a species engineered to act as fodder for humans.

>spending money on an antique show people will tune out for
Can't wait to see people realize how badly this show holds up

>advertise is correctly
Where do you think we are? They will run one ad for it the Saturday before it starts, and people will skip it seeing how old it is

Still better than anything else on Toonami right now.

No it's called Keijo.

I really wished toonami went back to their prime time slot. I don't know numbers they pulled back then but I feel they are better than what they are getting now.

I think the big problem with the show is that it was too short. All these ideas and a great universe, it needed to be a full 52 episodes to give proper attention to everything and tell a real epic story. But it ended up just being a half-baked clusterfuck.

Will Toonami ever get Saga of Tanya the Evil?

Or if it has to be something old... How about Slayers?

and take up TTG's time?
fuck no

Why? If they do that, 95% of anime series can't air at all, or need heavy edits

Fuck off shill

Kids these days do need a better cartoon show though.

They won't touch old shows unless it's a legacy title they get a killer deal on

This is why Boomerang needs to reformatted as Adult Swim Network

academia when?

>Slayers
CN already has that

I'll watch the fuck out of it.

Your mom does not hold up really.

Oh right how could I forget
>gotta watch Naruto to get to this
No thanks

Sony owns it

Adult Swim doesn't have enough material to sustain a full network it barley has enough to sustain have the days airtime on CN

Outlaw Star is an awful series.

What's his face is the most hateful protagonist in any anime series I've ever seen. He's a genuinely despicable person for telling Melfina that she wasn't a real person because she wouldn't put out for him, when he knew she was going through an existential crisis about being a clone. That scene was sickening.

Now bring back Tenchi muyo and Cowboy bebop and i would have toonami on as background noise.

Ah best reason to watch the show.

>More nostalgiashit

Cartoon Network is literally running a TV station off TTG right now, don't tell me Adult Swim doesn't have enough programming.

ARE YOU JUST GONNA KEEP RUNNING AWAY!?

>CN doesn't need Teen Titans, because they have Teen Titans Go!

I hope this brings a resurgence of Ashia porn

exactly

Tenchi Muyo is banned because of GXP

it will end up like G4 airing nothing but Cops reruns and like 5 new shows just exchange cops with Family Guy and King of the Hill

Is there a particular scene you're referring to?

Outlaw Star is garbage, people only care about it because of cat tits

Tenchi Muyo is hot garbage

Adult swim has been running for what 19 years now

I'm sure they got plenty of programs to run a network

If they want an old sci-fi show that's still a good watch they should get Infinite Ryvius

I like the music and the aesthetic...

Then CN will play TTG 24 hours a day!!

I'm kind of hoping for more porn this one.

*Confirmed canon that they have a human fetish*

I like Outlaw Star

I hope it finally gives some Suzu stuff. It's hard being thirsty for best samurai.

>more nostalgiabait
When will they learn? I guess they learned a little since it's just replacing GitS

Okay I'm just going to say this right now

Outlaw Star>Cowboy Bebop

Yeah, towards the end of the series when he tries to fuck Melfina and she pulls away and he tells her she isn't a real person because he knows that's a thought which horrifies her.

No

I'll agree, but the real question is where do you put Trigun?

Hmm what if they run a week night of nostalgia swim

Damn that's tough but uh...

Trigun>Outlaw Star>Cowboy Bebop

I don't know man, Trigun really taught me a lot during my childhood

Is this really worth losing 2nd gig?

I had a fucking folder prepared for the bed scene and wanted a screencap marathon

They also need Tranny representation too bad One Piece was canceled because Impel Down had that covered.

Will they show Tenrei this time

Congrats on getting the point of the scene. Gene isn't a great person. Even less so when he is drunk and frustrated at how ineffectual he's actually been in helping Mel.
After this incident he spends the next few days sulking over how shitty he is.

Doesn't matter. 2nd gig is a rerun, Outlaw Star is a rerun too.

I do not think I am ready to hear Aisha screaming in that mid40s woman voice trying to sound like a woman in her 20s for literally every fucking scene she is in.

He's too shitty of a person.

Outlaw Star takes most of the world Building from Larry Niven.

Aisha is based on the Kzin, the Engineers creations are literally the Leyline, the matter that is given to the Humans by Aliens who then later disappeared after teaching Humans Faster than Light Travel are taken from Larry's Known Space. Stepping Disks are found in the Leyline, Transfer Booths are used in the manga and the anime as well.

The Mystics and their Psionic powers are also from Larry's Known Space, as well as a Gun that mimics these supernatural abilities through bullets made by the Outsiders that are considered magic including the black hole bullet.

All that shit.

well at least in like 25 weeks or so from now we can all bitch about the censored bath planet scenes

So what are the chances that they'll just show the Toonami edit again?

It's even creepier when you know why.

An early waifu for me, the high ponytail drove me crazy. Still love that hairstyle today. When Vados showed up in DBS it was love at first sight.

>I hope it finally gives some Suzu stuff

You and me both. I ain't saying Aisha ain't top tier waifu, she's great but spread the love.

That's what makes him so interesting as the protagonist. We get to see a scumbag not trying to save the universe, but just helping one girl mostly because she is his ticket to the sickest ride in the galaxy. We also get to see him grow as a person.

What's the reason?

Not him, I hate to say it because I used to like it but it's unwatchable. Falls resoundingly into the "was never good" category.

Man, just bring back Yu Yu Hakusho, that show was better than Trigun, Cowboy Bebop and Outlaw Star put together

>What's the reason?
Religion.

>We also get to see him grow as a person.

Except we don't. There's no character development with anyone except the obnoxious kid. Everyone else gets some kind of conflict forced on them at the eleventh hour and then it's resolved before the audience has any idea what just happened.

YYH is easily the best shonen action show to have aired on the block in its history.

99% of the audience ditched it when it got mired in a tournament arc.

Tournament arcs are the deaths of all anime.

please don't pretend Lupin isn't the best thing ever

>Super into Kai
>Kai into JoJo
>JoJo into YuYu
>YuYu into Nardo
>Nardo into HxH

Love it

I liked Kenshin better

>you and me are enemies
>but now we are friends
>throw in some ki energy
thats yuyu in a nutshell

Except when Dragon Ball did it.

>99% of the audience ditched it when it got mired in a tournament arc.

You mean the fucking Dark Tournament Arc, which was the best part of the series? Are you shitting me?

This is true. I still enjoyed what a ridonkulous mashup of ideas it was, though. You got guns that shoot magic bullets and the main characters always bitch about how the magic bullets are more expensive than regular ones, you got robut waifus, you got STRONK catgirl waifus, you got samurai girl waifus, and you got spaceships that fight more with grappling arms than with missiles and shit.

It's like they just threw all their dumbest ideas at a wall and made a show about what stuck. And part of me will always find that charming.

I'd rank Yuyu pretty low because it tried to turn into DBZ.

I don't remember that at all. During elementary school, we were all watching that shit during tournament arc

>just got the special edition bluray

It holds up. You're a king faggot.

The first big tournament arc, the one with Rando was kinda boring. The next tournament arc was Dark Tournament which is possibly the highlight of the fucking series so I have no idea what you're talking about. Chapter Black was also great but not a tournament. Then the Demon World tournament at the end and honestly by that point everyone was ready for the show to end because it was clearly wrapping itself up. Other than the suddenness of the ending to it, it was a fine arc.

Every anime in a nutshell.

Oh look, anime girl poster!

This is a terrible idea. It would just be the bullshit live action crap that no one watches x1000

And don't forget that by the demon tournament the show was airing at 5am on Saturdays. It was already dead thanks to all the Miguzi shenanigans.

Yeah honestly I don't remember ever watching anything after Chapter Black on TV. It wasn't until I downloaded the series myself that I saw the actual end. Then the BDs came out and I got those lying around the house somewhere.

>Implying Space Ghost C2C, Home Movies, Frisky Dingo, Sealab 2021, ATHF (only Aqua Teen), Morel Orel, Frankenhole, VB, Mike Tyson Mysteries, and Bob's Burgers are shit

So were you just born without taste?

That's because they restarted it about 3 times when the mask guy on Toguro's team was gonna fight

Couldn't disagree more. Rewatched it a few months ago, afraid my nostalgia goggles would be blown off, happily found myself loving it even more. The whole Hong Kong space aesthetic and the world building stuff made everything feel much bigger and original than most space westerns.

Dawg, you didn't even read his post. He was complaining specifically about all the garbage live action shows that would undoubtedly take over an entire channel.

Not really if they cut ties with Tim Heidekker

Neon Joe only airs on Sunday

The block is dead. Adult Swim is dead outside Rick and Morty.

Last Saturday's highest rated program was a Family Guy episode that got 914,000 viewers. Three years ago, Family Guy was able to pull more than 3 million viewers.
