    "Toonami" News & Discussion Thread

    Maybe Kim Manning is responsible for the deal with Kodansha or Crunchyroll… it may have been a personal disagreement in negotiating styles between how Demarco and Gil operated. However they got Blue Lock and Tokyo Revengers, I remember being shocked because they hadn’t gotten any new CR series...

    “Durarara” on Adult Swim: a 15th Anniversary Retrospective

    Ryogo Narita also behind recent anime Fate Strange Fake. I assume that will never see air on Toonami either. I did feel like Durarara was a resurgence for ASA but the lack of Toonami branding was making Saturday nights boring during the first Obama admin. Not much of anything besides FMA...

    "Toonami" News & Discussion Thread

    Tokyo Revengers is kind of like Durarara, which I had thought of as the last Manning era show before Toonami returned. Behind the scenes it’s probably not quite as clear cut as we assumed, but of course we have had radio silence from Toonami on social media for years other than the FB. Kim...

    Now that Cable is almost dead, kids cartoons are starting to come back to Broadcast Networks.

    You’re probably right. I remember watching jetsons on MeTV before MeTV Toons existed. On Sunday mornings, it seemed to be treated as standard MeTV programming. But then it aired only the 1960s episodes. Does MeTV Toons also air the 1980s episodes like Boomerang does? Maybe that is causes the...

    New Powerpuff Girls Movie News

    PPGZ isn’t widely known in the US. Unless this is some weird Enter the Powerpuffverse multiverse crossover where the PPG meet the 2010s cn, CW pilot, tv special, etc variants, I don’t think we will see them.

    Now that Cable is almost dead, kids cartoons are starting to come back to Broadcast Networks.

    Would a show like the Flintstones that was originally aimed at adults but skewed younger be interpreted by the FCC as a kids or general audience program? I will be curious to see how the FCC respond to Weigel.

    MeTV Toons - Network TALKBACK & Discussion Thread

    Thanks for clarifying. The FCC posted this to their website without commenting on it is approved?

    MeTV Toons - Network TALKBACK & Discussion Thread

    Excellent find powergate. I think this settles the question of whether FCC considers it a kids channel or a nostalgic adults channel. It’s good to see the government acknowledge the existence of adult cartoon fans and not subject MeTV Toons to the dictates of the Children’s Television Act. What...

    Boomerang (US) News & Discussion II: Rebrand

    Sundays have been too inconsistent lately. They were airing Chowder, then it skipped a couple weeks, returned for a couple weeks, now it’s gone again. I ended up watching the later episodes streaming. CN shows just don’t work too well for Boomerang. But can’t we get Sylvester and Tweety...

    Now that Cable is almost dead, kids cartoons are starting to come back to Broadcast Networks.

    There was a Yogi Bear cartoon on for Christmas season on the CW last year. But we haven’t seen that much animation hit the CW since then. Was still interesting to see Yogi’s First Christmas on CW instead of Boomerang.

    Disney loses Pokémon rights

    Disney XD often airs anime next to Big City Greens. I guess it’s not impossible Disney Channel will do the same. We still don’t have official confirmation. Then again Yu-Gi-Oh Go Rush wasn’t officially confirmed until schedules showed it and a promo was produced by Disney XD just a few days...

    Bleach 20th Anniversary Project & Tite Kubo New Work Presentation (News Thread)

    Is this connected to the Hell movie of Bleach?

    Cake to distribute internationally "Doraemon" and "Voltron"

    You are probably right. Voltron may turn up on MeTV Toons or return to Boomerang.

    C&C - One Piece - "Marine Rookie Arc" [6/13-6/27/26]

    This arc feels redundant with that arc Toonami skipped between Skypeia and Foxy. Oh well, just one more week.

    Disney loses Pokémon rights

    I wonder what all this means. I honestly doubt Disney Channel will air Pokemon. Unless Disney XD is going to merge into Disney Channel like their YouTube channels combined. I’m worried Disney Channel would treat Beyblade X and Yu-Gi-Oh Go Rush badly if they don’t outperform kid coms. Like how...
