| Space Dandy left me cold. I wanted to like it - zany humor?? inanity? chaotic? it just fell flat. i don't think watching it dubbed helped. it just added to the feeling like it was actually a western animation. meh. |
| I was quite confused watching Space Dandy. Granted Its only been one episode so I'll continue to give it a chance until I can't take it anymore. |

| damnnn, does it air that late just to show 1 episode of an anime? Feel so sorry to those who watch Inuyasha on Toonami. |

I've been recording Inuyasha and have been slowly watching it, so I have like 30 or more episodes to catch up on. Plus it used to air two episodes of Inuyasha a night. It's not so bad. Though I feel its unfair that it only airs 1 episode a night now and Naruto is rerunning. god i remember doing that 6 years ago. that was actually how i got into anime |

| the dub isn't bad so far, it's just very underwhelming. it might get better as the show progresses though but i'm not crossing my fingers. |
| I am glad they stopped playing Cowboy bebop, BUT WHY are they restarting Naruto and playing Naruto Shippuden before Naruto. It makes not sense. Shippuuden sucks anyway they should have put something else on. Bleach is stale. FLCL seen it 4 times now :S One Piece its going to take awhile to get used to Frankys voice. I didn't expect that at all. |

It's cheaper to replay Naruto while using the money they have to get better, newer shows. The shows on Toonami that come first (Space Dandy, Bleach, Naruto and OP) are generally the most viewed shows on the block, so of course Shippuden would come on before Naruto. |

Bleach always pulls in one million+ ratings each week, even if it's currently a filler arc. http://toonamifaithful.com/toonami-ratings-for-january-4-5-2014/ |

Didn't Toonami play Deathnote and Code geass before it got cancelled? I definitely remember seeing Code geass on TV. |

| 2nd episode of space dandy was a huge improvement. had me laughing a few times and hopefully it gets better from here. |
| I'm hoping Black Lagoon does well. It could possibly be a gateway to more mature anime to air, like Darker than Black for example. |
| i already own black lagoon so i wont watch it (not that i can right now since my american receiver broke) |

| I'll probably tune this out while it plays. It looks cool, but from what I've seen (/YT videos) it's not something I'd really enjoy. Who knows, I might come to like it. So does this mean Blue Exorcist gets the 2AM time slot? Dammit. D: |
| Is the new schedule going into effect this saturday? |

monster7foot6 said: Is the new schedule going into effect this saturday? Nope. Black Lagoon and Blue Exorcist don't start until March. Samurai Jack starts next month... and that's about all the news we have about new shows (for now), I think. And derp on my part; I forgot SAO ends in a few weeks. I thought that's what Blue Exorcist was replacing. xD |
| i hope it hits the UK like the good old days |

bpSORE said: after the season over . i would like Noragami to have a slot in toonami schedule , if they dub the show Funimation will definitely dub it, although it's not a "huge" enough show to get on Toonami as quickly as SAO did. I would kill to see it on there though! Blue Exorcist starts next week, right? I'm so excited! |
| Honestly and I know it's a long shot but I'd eventually like to see Toonami totally rebuild their block. Get rid of the nostalgic shows that've already had their time in the spotlight/have their notoriety for fresh meat. Give some of the better stuff of modern anime some more exposure to the Toonami faithful. Assuming all these get respective dubs (pretty sure most if not all of this will...some of them obviously already have been dubbed) Attack on Titan Psycho Pass Future Diary/Mirai Nikki Log Horizon Kill la Kill on top of Black Lagoon and Blue Exorcist which have already been announced. Imagine some sort of block like that. Could be interesting. |
| Samurai Jack is coming back? Count me in! |
 |
| How was Black Lagoon's airing? Did they bleep out just about every other word? |

Give some of the better stuff of modern anime some more exposure to the Toonami faithful. I really wish they wouldn't try to be an exclusive action-anime block. A lot of good drama & comedies that could probably do decent here. Something like Haruhi Suzumiya would be great. Everyone seems to love the dub and it already has good popularity over here. Wishful thinking, I suppose. |
