Read the entire article though. It's really interesting.

I was really surprised by how barebones the network is. It's a really tiny group of people.

 

[Soulflarz]

I am also unsure how to respond to this information.

 

[Man God]

Neat. Watching One Piece all week and I'm only...11 months behind current.

This arc is wonderful animated. Looks awful but its so entertaining.

 

[BBboy20]

Steven Universe went over 9000!

Literally.

 

[B-Dubs]

Cancel everything including family guy and make Adult Swim nothing but fish swimming though super imposed coins to maximize profits

That would be an amazing April Fool's Day joke

Catching up on Steven Universe

Spoiler

Just finished the Lapis Lazuli episode, I can see how this picked up steam for a lot of people.

Brace yourself. The show really starts to pick up speed soon after the midseason finale.

 

[Man God]

I'll get to Steven Universe when I get to Gravity Falls. Sometime next year or the year after.

If it helps Steven Universe is 'filler' after this week!

 

[Man God]

...How can a show based off of no previous work even have filler?!?

Recap episode isn't the same thing.

I was joking somewhat. The character building/introduction episodes people have called filler since they sometimes don't deal with the overarching plot. With a series like this though settings and small details in one episode leads to major plot points down the line.

Holy shit, fishcenter is actually successful.

Damn, that is a rather large chunk of toonami I don't give a damn about.

 

[Zonic]

Well, that'll be interesting to see how much of a drop in viewership Shippuden will get, unless they hope the fans are willing to stay up that long/watch the other shows while waiting for that.

Poor Straw Hats, sailing alone in a sea of shit.

Eww...SAO and Naruto filler. Poor Inuyasha is just sandwiched in between too. He'll probably be fine.

 

[BatDan]

Ugh, it feels like they're trying to kill One Piece

Pre-Flight question on Facebook:

"In celebration of Toonami’s incept date, 03.17.97, Tuesday’s Pre-Flight is a look back at Toonami through the years. Question of the week - What is your favorite Toonami Show, Promo, or Memory?"

Wow, few more days, it'll be the 18th anniversary of when Toonami premiered.

The best thing Toonami has ever done. Don't think this can be topped

Well, they also have a piece of real estate at 8:30 PM currently.

 

[Regiruler]

My circle pad rubber came off sometime last night and I have no idea where it could be. Bah.

Too lazy to syatem transfer right now but I want to play Kid Icarus.

EDIT: Holy crap, I just found it 30 seconds after this post. Gotta send my regards to St. Anthony.

 

[ckohler]

I'm just glad they didn't move KLK down in favor of SAO II.

 

[Puruzi]

Pretty much just watching DBZ and KLK. Oh well.

 

[BatDan]

Genndy's Popeye movie has been killed.
Poor guy... he just wants to animate but the studios keep screwing him over.

Heh, that's true.

What the? When did this happen?

There's always Disney. Seriously though, I really want to see more from him and it seems like these studios don't feel the same way.

News just broke today

 

[Moaradin]

Great. Gonna have to sit through more garbage before One Piece.

 

[Puruzi]

Well this is some shit innit

 

[Zonic]

Disney already technically made a Popeye film. The one with Robin Williams. Hard to say if they'd want to make another.

A shame, because the test animation really captured the tone & feel of the original while still managing to look unique.

I am okay with this.

 

[B-Dubs]

Will someone just let him make animated stuff already? It's not like he's bad at it, he's quite good really...

Heh, that's true.

That guy just can't catch a break

Naruto seemingly moves after Inuyasha

This line up makes sense to me

DBZ does work in the premier spot
The two newest shows most recently dubbed and probably new to the biggest % of the AS audience, then InuYasha a slightly older show but still new to tv. Then an hour of super long running shonen that their fan base will stay up for anyways.

 

[UltraGunner]

I'm in a Hotline Miami sort of mood

Pretty awful schedule, no way Naruto Shippuden deserves to be shown that late especially as it nears even more fantastic moments.

Not talking about show 'quality' (lol) but:

If there was any time to move Naruto back in the line up, it would be right as it starts filler for a few months....which is exactly the case.

DBZ has already (easily) been the best rated show since the revival, so it's staying it front, and newer shows that have not aired in English follow that. One Piece at the end kinda stinks for fans but it's been on the block for a while now (nearing two years) and has never rated consistently.

It's sensible.

 

[LOLDSFAN]

Interesting to see Final Act bumped up. We'll see how that works out.

 

[mightynine]

Schedule change confirmed on the Tumblr.

 

[Regiruler]

When is the change taking place?

 

[Puruzi]

When is the change taking place?

28th I think

 

[ASSauLTxMasTER]

Yep, takes place on the 28th. One Piece is getting further ;-;

 

[Imperial Bishop]

Why do I have a feeling that SAO II isn't going to hold Kill la Kill very well?

 

[BassForever]

Why do I have a feeling that SAO II isn't going to hold Kill la Kill very well?

SAO I was doing a million at times in the 2:30 slot it'll be fine

 

[Imperial Bishop]

The first season was at 2 a.m.

 

[Soulflarz]

The first season was at 2 a.m.

Still, a million!

SAO prints money.

 

[Gucci Messiah]

Eww...SAO and Naruto filler. Poor Inuyasha is just sandwiched in between too. He'll probably be fine.

SAO is going to do very well...

 

[Schadenfreude]

How they gonna keep play Genndy like that? The dude is a genius. JUST LET HIM DO STUFF, YOU DUMB BASTARDS.

 

[MikeMyers]

SAO is going to do very well...

I think he meant it in more of a "I'm not going to enjoy this" way.
