Doesn't Netflix have the right to air the dub of Psycho Pass from Funi? We still got a comment that hinted we may see in sometime next year (yay......) so even if Netflix gets the dub we may still see it on Toonami in the future. I really can't see Netflix footing the bill themselves for an 148 episode anime dub on their own.
Yeah, I think at least Akame ga Kill is a matter of if and not when
"Hey would you like to air your shows in the only place on American TV where they can air?"Well, the be IF is Sentai, they need to play ball first.

Oh good, this ended before Mike Tyson Mysteries started.

No one said this about Kill la Kill because it came out pretty early that it might be too lewd for ToonamiWasn't this said about Kill la Kill too? I don't think it's coming anytime soon, if ever.
"Hey would you like to air your shows in the only place on American TV where they can air?"
"Yes."
Late to the party and blocked out for the moment by Funi and AniplexPlease tell me where they are then?
I still think Netfilx is the one who grabbed Hunter x Hunter dub.

They'd have announced it or thrown it up there by now. It's too big a property to keep hidden away like this.
Nobody? I recall a lot of speculation that KLK would come to toonami before DeMarco shut that talk down at Momocon. I'll go out on a limb and say AGK won't come either without edits which neither side wants to pay for.

Both the comedy and violence in Akame ga Kill are way closer to normal than both in Hellsing.Dang, Jojo would've been a good question. But nobody asked.
& from what it sounds like, does Akame ga Kill suffer from the same "comedy" that Hellsing tries to attempt?

You would think this would be the case for anyone who has the dub rights to this series, same with JoJo... and yet here we are still waiting and wondering what the hold up is

Uhh what part of Akame Ga Kill would have to be censored/edited? Girls in bathing suits hasn't been a problem before and the violence is nowhere near as graphic as Hellsing.
I don't see what edits AGK would need.
We had a Nazi Vampire eat a baby on Hellsing Ultimate. You know the type of shit that sends American censors in a tizzy and violence isn't it
I very much believe we'll see a Sentai show on Toonami in 2015, both sides have clearly shown interest over the past few months and as Sentai continues to pick up shows that are popular and dub them and release them in the US the more a partnership would be mutually beneficial.
Wait for the child molestation, rape, and genital torture
Aaah, okay. I like to use FMA:B as a series that knows when to use comedy to lighten the mood, but still understands when to keep it serious & not switch to its sillier art style.More like what FMA:B does with it's comedy scenes, it's no where near as jarring
Didn't DeMarco already state that too much nudity wasn't the reason KLK hasn't aired yet?

i do not agree with this at all. for the first 20 or so episodes, anyway.
IIRC the comment was that the nudity would be a problem and that they'd have to pay to get it censored
It's been rumored that you guys got Gurren Lagann because Kill La Kill had too much nudity for S&P to clear. Is that true?
Nope.
That doesn't mean Kill la Kill is free and clear, it just means that wasn't the reason they got Gurren LagannThey originally said that nudity might be an issue, but apparent it's not if I'm taking the context of this correctly.
1) This season of the anime isn't even going to get to this
2) This stuff isn't going to air on Japanese TV either as they've already toned down scenes of rape and cut a scene of child molestation
I grew up watching a decent amount of comedies as a kid & teen, so FMA:B's humor worked most of the time for me.The style of comedy works for me, but I know it doesn't for others. Also with how much darker AkG is compared to FMA:B it's comedy might be even more jarring for those who didn't like what FMA:B did
1. Probably won't get to the genital torture but you know exactly where the anime will end this season? I bet there's a good chance to get to some of the sexualized themes and even implied child molestation won't fly on cartoon network.
2. There's a plot point that involves rape/molestation they can't ignore whether it's this season or the next
Violence isn't the problem with AGK, it's the sexualized nature in which it's portrayed. On top of that the show will probably be expensive to air. You think they're going to splurge on AGK to air it at 2 or 2:30AM? SAO II and Log Horizon are much safer bets imo.
"Ain't got no time for bird sex"
I can't speak to what the anime hasn't covered yet that happens in the manga (and I expect some things to be toned down based on what people are saying in here) but from the 17 episodes aired so far, there's nothing that would be too much for this version of Toonami. Let's see how the anime actually handles the super edgy stuff before we say its too much for Toonami or not.
Eh. It was pretty boring.
And both Gurren Lagann and Black Lagoon aired on the block, Black Lagoon even featured all those themes you mentioned and arguably was darker with how it depicted them.
I mean it wasn't mind boggling funny, but it did make me laugh and it's classic animated style worked really well. It also somehow managed to have no gross out humor which is a huge plus for me.
AGK will get better ratings because it looks like SAOBro Black Lagoon doesn't have. I don't know how you get any darker than that.a deranged clown that openly talks about how he rapes and murders kids to preserve their innocence
Putting the nature of the content on hold, do you actually think the network will shell out money for AGK when it will air at 2 or 2:30AM and super edgy content has generally proven to tank in the ratings? The 'new' shows they air after the long running shonen are generally a few years old outside of SAO.
Bro Black Lagoon doesn't have . I don't know how you get any darker than that.
