"is it true that you're going to air Black Lagoon?"

man, i'm never doing this again haha i'm getting kinda mad. when i just look back at these after they're over with i can just skip over these kinds of questions. if i'm following the Q&A as it's running, i'm anticipating the next question they answer and it ends up being something like this usually.

I don't think it helps to have more than one person answering these questions at the same time. It opens up the possibility of two people answering a similar question at the same time and they don't even realize it.

they even do it with full knowledge. one of their answers was "see previous response." i'm grateful that they're answering questions at all, but come on guys. you've got a post limit for crying out loud.

"When is SAOII coming?!?!}

 

[Schadenfreude]

"Ever though about airing subbed anime?" FUCK YOU!!!!!

 

[Seda]

Huh they reiterated that Blue Exorcist is coming in March. So.....something's fishy.

Ever thought about airing subbed anime like attack on titan?

'Can't talk about acquisitions'

So yes

 

[Doctor Decimate]

yeah, i think we're looking at a movie night or some kind of special event.

 

[Crocodile]

Do they have like a general Toonami FAQ on their tumblr? Maybe someplace they can tell people to look before asking these sorts of questions during Q&As?

 

[789shadow]

yeah, i think we're looking at a movie night or some kind of special event.

DO I HEAR HALF AN HOUR OF KICKHEART?

 

[mightynine]

Back2Back Kickheart with only Anime Jungle commercials.

 

[Schadenfreude]

Fuck you too, pan-pizza.

BassForever post if you're ok

 

[Gucci Messiah]

I really hope Toonami gets a Gundam series

 

[Doctor Decimate]

Q: Has anyone considered running Toonami more than once a week?
A: The fans

heh.

 

[mightynine]

This response really makes me wonder if Toonami on April Fools was perhaps a referendum on anime on the network. I know they say there's always a place for it, but...

joesam1 Asked: About that earlier question (about non-action anime), I don't mean Toonami, I mean adult swim in general.
Ah. Well, Adult Swim’s done a bunch of that and those shows never pulled the ratings necessary to justify their cost, sadly.

 

[BassForever]

BassForever post if you're ok

I'm okay, dunno about those other two though

 

[Gucci Messiah]

This response really makes me wonder if Toonami on April Fools was perhaps a referendum on anime on the network. I know they say there's always a place for it, but...

Are they talking about the crappy AS live action stuff or old toonami shows like Duel Masters, Bobobo, etc

 

[Schadenfreude]

Man, I hate the people on tumblr. It's like they didn't just say that they'll never play sub anime.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

They really should have a big fat FAQ bolted onto the top of the question submission form that you have to scroll past to enter anything. As it is, they're only hurting themselves by answering every repeated question.

 

[slightconfuse]

HEY GUYS IS BLUE EXORCIST COMING in March???

 

[Doctor Decimate]

Man, I hate the people on tumblr. It's like they didn't just say that they'll never play sub anime.

or say it every Q&A. or say it on national television.

 

[789shadow]

HEY TOONAMI WHEN ARE YOU GETTING BLEACH?

 

[Imperial Bishop]

'Can't talk about acquisitions'

So yes

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

 

[Gucci Messiah]

PLAY THE SUB OF SPACE DANDY

 

[ASSauLTxMasTER]

inb4globalrage

alright, im done,

 

[mightynine]

Are they talking about the crappy AS live action stuff or old toonami shows like Duel Masters, Bobobo, etc

The original question was:

Why doesn't adult swim ever air non action anime?

 

[Doctor Decimate]

"what anime used to be aired on Toonami"

 

[Crocodile]

I really hope Toonami gets a Gundam series

Gundam Build Fighters is legit good but it definitely swings young so I dunno if the 18-49 demographic would eat it up (then again Shonen shows are the ratings drivers for this block so........)

I'd welcome Gundam Wing (nostalgia though maybe it still holds up) and G Gundam (cause I'm pretty sure it still holds up) back but they might be too old for New Toonami? Gundam 00 falls apart in the second season, I didn't like Seed and though I've never seen Seed Destiny or Gundam AGE, everyone says those shows are horse-aids so I'm not too keen to watch them. Is Turn A Gundam dubbed? Maybe some old school UC Gundam like 08th MS Team or Zeta Gundam (though that may also be too old).

Does anyone else know of any other Gundam shows that might have a chance? It's such a shame Bandai botched Gundam in America, it should be much bigger than it is here.

 

[LOLDSFAN]

winners have been picked and will be notified "very soon"

Oh good. Been wondering about the shirts.

 

[Imperial Bishop]

thoughtnami Asked: A couple of months ago, you guys hyped that Blue Exorcist was coming to the block in March. This week, you announced Black Lagoon was coming in March. Is Blue Exorcist still coming in March or was that a premature announcement?

Nope they are both coming in the next couple of weeks!

???????

 

[Doctor Decimate]

H. Jon Benjamin should totally voice TOM. that may be a stupid request, but it's a good one.

 

[Levyne]

I assume they just mean handful of weeks.

 

[slightconfuse]

???????

SAO and soul eater replacements?

 

[Imperial Bishop]

SAO and soul eater replacements?

I know that. But they made it sound like they were coming in February.

 

[Doctor Decimate]

had a thought: they said Black Lagoon is coming March 22. so i'm not sure what the heck they're planning to do with Blue Exorcist if they're dead set on March for that since if Black Lagoon is coming on the 22 that leaves no room for Soul Eater to miss an episode. i think they've just got their dates confused

 

[Imperial Bishop]

the-downgrade Asked: This isn't a question but I think its a pretty good idea. Toonami should definitely make another short film for TOM. Give him another adventure like they did in the past. That would be awesome

Sure, we love that idea! Can you please write us a check….

Cooold-blooodeeeeed

Break up extra extend into 2-3 episodes and it works

This is because SAO ends on Feb. 16th, right?

Maybe they really are showing the SAO special the next week?

 

[Levyne]

I like how I ask a question about re-airing amvs and they answer multiple "hi" or "hello" instead.

 

[789shadow]

There's no fucking way that's been dubbed yet, right?

this is possible. i assumed it wouldn't be dubbed that quickly though.

 

[Schadenfreude]

They're really rather silly.

 

[Seda]

Well we'll see what the TV schedules say in a week or two I guess.

 

[Zonic]

I wonder why they even bother answering questions that've been talked about so many damn times. Just ignore them & then at the end, say something like "check the FAQ, as there might be a question there we've answered".
