Are there any hour long shows that they might attempt to squeeze into the block with two shows ending the same day? Only thing I can think of is if they wanted to show F/Z that would be the perfect opportunity to air it's first stupid long episode then throw Space Dandy or some other cheap rerun at the end.

Sorry for double post but I felt this was relevant for one user in particular

So not impossible, but extremely unlikely

Well, yeah, you had...what, tennis, football ONLINE ONLY, and then the "sport" of Go.
One would think the football based anime would do well (on actual TV & not online exclusive in the early 2000s when the internet was still rather new with video content) in the country where the #1 sport is football....or baseball.........or mud wrestling, I don't know, I don't follow sports...

As much as I love Eyeshield 21 as the only football anime, I'd prefer the real football as the anime logic kind of stretches things a little much, hahaha. Like there are things that definitely won't fly in a real game broadcast.
Ah I too will be skipping then.

Fictional shows about real sports really don't do that well in the US as a whole, probably because we can just watch the real thing 99% of the time

Real, suave gentlemen.
So you're just entering the grand line, then?
I haven't seen a #WeekdayToonamiGAF in a long long time.
But real sports is bounded by reality, & reality is boring and sucks.
The US loves boxing movies, look how well Rocky did. BRING US IPPO DEMARCO!

American's LOVE sports movies either fictional or based upon real events, but tv series have largely bombed

From what I've seen of their Doraemon dub, it's rather decent, though the random "Americanizations" can be weird, but for a kids show, they did alright, & I'm sure they wouldn't have to do much to Yo-Kai Watch as well in terms of content (aside from "we need to American this").
Ippo is all about believing and I believe in Ippo!

Why watch eyeshield 21 when I can watch a better product that's real
Should have been on Cartoon Network. Pair it with Pokemon for the Japanese Monster Hour
haha, i was expecting this to be an exaggeration, but no, that's indeed pretty terrible.

Like One Piece will ever end

Modern day CN promoting a new untested anime IP along with one of their staple tent-pole anime franchises?
Never in a million years.
It would have been stuck at 6 in the morning on Fridays.
One Piece will probably be cancelled in favor of Fairy Tail long before it ends.
Doraemon is also played by Izzy from Digimon, which I'll never stop finding rather humorous because I just imagine Izzy yelling at his friends.
& looking at the names, they were handled well. Nobita Nobi is now Noby Nobi, Shizuka Minamoto is Sue Morris (eeh, least it's a reference to her US VA, Cassandra Morris), and Takashi "Gian" Goda's nickname is "Big G". Though the biggest change was from Hidetoshi Dekisugi to Ace Goody (uh, okay).

Disappointed Yo! Kai Watch didn't become a thing.
That is something that Toonami was always good at yet never get the praise, anime was allowed to be anime on Toonami, it was allowed to be as Japanese as it anted to be.

Because, God forbid, if kids hear names that sound foreign and are hard-to-pronounce, they'll change the channel.
I forgot 6:30 used to be referred to as 6.5pm during some show promos. What a weird world.

The original intro isn't that great either but this is hot garbage. Still, Yokai Watch!

God, I loved the Kenshin/YYH power hour. Best hour Toonami ever had.

I felt nostalgic and watched a whole bunch of promos/commercials from the Heyday of Toonami on YouTube. Brought back so many memories. Toonami was my shit. Ah, to be a kid again.
