Last week pretty big for Toonami numbers:

Bleach - 1,114,000
Naruto - 961,000
ThunderCats - 1,020,000
Samurai 7 - 889,000
Sym-Bionic Titan - 841,000
Eureka 7 - 788,000
Tenchi GXP - 776,000
Fullmetal - 798,000
Cowboy Bebop - 690,000
Cowboy Bebop - 664,000
InuYasha - 640,000
InuYasha - 628,000

Wow, these numbers are a lot better than say... those few weeks after Deadman ended where there was a bit of a lull.

No. Baccano. Issac and Miria need to accidentally make the world a better place. Plus it gets as violent as Deadman so yea...

Did Isaac and Miria ever star in their own anime spinoff? I know they were in Baccano and Durarara!! but I wasn't sure if that was the extent of it :)

i think the only ones they have the rights to that aren't on Toonami right now are Ghost in the Shell, FLCL, and The Big O

Wrong.

Also:

Probably means nothing. :(

Well it ended around a year ago so it wouldn't really surprise me. Would love to have a link though so my hopes can die in one swoop instead of being drawn out. :<

I was really late to Durarara, even not liking it at first, but on re-watching it, it's an outstanding anime. Wish it got more seasons.

When they say "Own", I'm guessing they're talking about the TV broadcasting rights. Do they out and out own the Bebop rights then? They're not perpetually licencing them and renewing them every three years or whatever?

i believe they said that they don't have to worry about the rights to either Bebop or Ghost at all in the near future

they said they don't own the first three, which was referring to Deadman, Casshern, and Durarara. it could mean something else, i suppose, but i took that as they never renewed their rights or however it works.
Those three are not owned in the sense that they have to be paid for per airing, I believe. By contrast, Big O II they own outright, and FLCL might be a show they grabbed the rights to in perpetuity (it's bounced around to a couple of different distributors over the years). Those 3 are also still on adultswim.com, and if they really meant they could never be aired again they would have said so.

The only relatively recent acquisition that I KNOW they've lost the rights to is Kekkaishi.

In fairness to Kekkaishi, at least AS was kind enough to let it finish its run at its original timeslot. Actually, I don't know how Kekkaishi did, I always assumed it did OK/slightly-worse-than-OK.

It finished its run, though not at its timeslot (i think). It didn't do terribly, but it didn't grab people at all like DogBoy did; not enough action. Apparently no one wanted to see Yoshimori make the ultimate pastry. :(

Funny thing, if they had acquired the 2nd season of it there's much more action.

It's a pretty slow burning story, it gets amazingly good it just takes a while to get there.

There is no 2nd season of Kekkaishi. Adult Swim aired the entire series. Twice. (Well, it actually got cut off something like 2 or 3 episodes before the finale the second time, but still not bad for a 52 episode series.)

Bane? Get them on board, I'll call it in.
Sounds like Toonami-GAF will be a little less active than usual this weekend since people are going on vacation.
I know I'll be present.

The manga that continued was never made into a series? Because they definitely left it kinda open-ended... oh well that sucks.

I have to drive 9 hours on Sunday, so I'll only be here through Naruto. If nothing else, I want to finally make fun of Naruto with you guys.

Sadly tonight is the Kakashi episode so there won't be much to make fun of
unless the poke happens in this episode as well.

ONE THOUSAND YEARS OF DEATH!

And also David Bowie-sensei-sama-sempai-kun.

Tonight will be glorious.

Heh, the voice of Kakashi was also the voice of Teddie in Persona 4 (the first voice, not the overly-shrill second voice they use for Arena, Golden, and the anime).

Also, it's David Bowie Sama Sensei Senpai San Sama Kun (thank you TVTropes).
