It might actually do good. I kinda like it. If they have Bleach, Naruto, and that, they'd have some pretty good ratings and long shows.
Just as long as I don't see this happen again :
I dunno, One Piece starts off pretty slow. It would probably need 2 slots at least.

worth noting that these are the highest average ratings the block has ever seen.

Lol Poor Eureka 7

Also, when watching Shippuden, I had to LOL whenever I saw Sai. Heck, I'm chuckling thinking about him right now. If Sasuke is emo, Sai is straight up goth.
Like, couldn't they have made a more convincing replacement than someone who's basically the original, except even more stoic? What's the point? Why not use one of the bajillion more interesting characters you've already created?
At first, when I was watching Rock Lee I thought it actually was Sasuke, just a new outfit.

That guy was so fucking lame. I honestly don't even remember if he did anything useful. Actually forgot he existed until just now. What a forgettable character.
They need to put Shikamaru and/or Rock Lee in Naruto's group.

Heh heh, from an old bump, here's all of the anime Adult Swim has ever played :
Just for anyone who's curious.
I don't recall Kenshin ever airing on AS, just Toonami. Maybe I'm mistaken. The date given is the day it debuted on Toonami, at any rate.
That's also missing some shows. Off the top of my head, Yu Yu Hakusho, Outlaw Star, Mobile Suit Gundam, Gundam 0080, and Gundam 0083. Probably some other stuff I'm forgetting.

I don't remember anything called Moribito.
AS generally has had good taste, but Reign, Witch hunter Robin, Wolf's Rain, Milk Chan, Trinity Blood, and Blood+ (especially Blood+) were all unfortunate misses. I don't remember watching Kikaider, Blue Gender, Gigantor or Astroboy on AS and I used to watch AS pretty much every night until about 2009.

I know I've said it multiple times, but they should use my idea. If Adult Swim is willing to sacrifice one of their weekday shows (right now it's an hour of King of the Hill, American Dad, and Family Guy) and give the next 20 or so weeks to One Piece, they can catch up to around Episode 206 and start where Funimation Season 4 starts.

Don't worry, Funimation is completely uncut.
Odd you chose that picture, there's far worse 4Kids edits out there.

I agree so much it hurts. Character death spoiler I heard about:
Besides, Lee's team is down one anyways. They should merge teams or something, not like Tenten is useful anyways.
Moribito is straight up awesome. Gotta watch it dude, it's on Hulu and probably Netflix.

I only saw one episode of Moribito. It seems to get a lot of praise from some people, though.
Witch Hunter Robin, Kikaider and Blue Gender were all really good shows. I loved that era of Adult Swim.
The less said about Reign and Trinity Bland, the better.
Moribito is fucking great. It's an Asian-style fantasy show based on a series of light novels about a badass spearwoman who ends up protecting a young prince who is apparently possessed by some kind of spirit (and the prince manages to NOT be a stereotypical annoying anime kid). Also, it's by the Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex director and team. Did I mention that?
Wolf's Rain is also a really great series.
As for that bump with "all of Adult Swim's anime" shows pre-Toonami revival, Rurouni Kenshin, to my knowledge, was never on Adult Swim. It started on Toonami and moved to the SVES or whatever the hell that Saturday block was called. (It also inexplicably shows Big O beginning before Adult Swim existed, which, well, it DID debut on Toonami, but still kind of weird. Cowboy Bebop debuted on the inaugural Adult Swim lineup.)
That list is also missing Neon Genesis Evangelion, Voltron, and the other shows previously mentioned (YYH, Outlaw Star, the various Gundams).
And, of course, that's not counting the movies and OVAs. If you add those, then you also get:
Bleach movies 1 + 2
Inuyasha movies 1-4
Cowboy Bebop: The Movie
Escaflowne
Metropolis
The Animatrix
Read or Die
Kakurenbo
Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack

~800K, I don't think it will put up bleach or naruto numbers
I'd say 600K to start, gradually pulling in Bleach and Naruto numbers as the series goes along.

The bump was old. There always will be a chance they'd miss some shows.
Oh yes, i've seen the far worse 4Kids edits. * cough * Another Gun Example :

I'm still in shock from forcing myself to watch the 4kids dub. Back then I think I just tried to block out the unnecessary censorship and terrible voice acting but now I see the light.

Marginally Toonami-related, but I'm marathoning through GitS: SAC (never watched this before, I know, what's wrong with me) and just to make sure - after 2nd GIG, all I have left is Soild State Society? The other things like Individual Eleven and Laughing Man are just the parts of those seasons related to the main plot, right?
Also, SAC's soundtracks are amazing.

Probably waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay out of Toonami's budget. That said, we'll probably see it before One Piece.
Does the Persona 4 animation spoil the game? I havent played P4 yet and probably won't until I get a Vita sometime this year (hopefully summer)
If it doesn't then I wouldn't mind it on Toonami. Sorta holding out hope for One Piece though. It has history with Toonami (albeit a 4Kids plagued one) and it would mean Toonami is home to all of the big 3 shonen, plus it's apparently cheap and Funi really wants it on TV (this thread being the source
). Only real problems I see is getting around scheduling and the insane episode count

It spoils the entire game. In fact, a couple parts rely on people knowing about the game to understand it.
From start to finish, including the true ending.

Well, the big three kinda includes DB, but yeah, that ain't happening anytime soon.
The stuff that follows the movie is great. Everything after Episode 16 (where the movie ends) is bleh.
Sabat is amazing as Kikuchiyo though.
Parallax
best seen in the classic "Shadow of the Beast"
werent the gundams midnight run shows? if so, thats just toonami.

MSG was on the weekday afternoon block, 08th MS team was midnight run.

interesting to note that if they replace Sym-Bionic Titan with FLCL, it'll end the same day as Thundercats and open an hour-long space in the block.
i imagine Titan will take up at least one of Bebop's slots. InuYasha probably won't move, and whether Bebop actually restarts remains to be seen. i don't think it's out of the question for Tenchi GXP to switch places with Eureka Seven, either.

Woo, thank you sir.
I wish. I'd be sooo busy to update it though. I'll see
You know, by looking at this, that's actually a good idea. If you put it like that, it would open an hour-long spot and those shows might be moved like that.
And Gundam Wing was on during the afternoons with the uncensored version at midnight. I think 08th MS Team aired during the afternoons, too.
The exact same thing I though. A sudden free hour? PERFECT.Sounds like a perfect time to introduce One Piece into the block...

I believe so, yes. My understanding is the latter two are basically just plot summaries, and not actually new content. As for anime marathons, I'm currently plowing through Steins;Gate. Best anime I've seen in a long time.
Yes. Yes they are. I imported all three.
Both solid choices. Love YJ and want to see Michiko.
