They need to cut the crap that comes before Toonami (especially the Cleveland Show >.<) so that this stuff is on before 3am. I don't watch my anime on tv, but I may check out a couple episodes of One Piece to decide if I should start the series from the beginning.

I wish they would replace one of the kid shows (symbionic titan anyone?) or miss an episode of Family guy and the Cleveland show for just ONE NIGHT a week so we can have time for anime and action shows (I don't mind Boondocks being on though, I love it) but take their time slots and replace it with a classic anime, personally I'd love to see Neon Genesis Evangelion get a slot on the schedule, I haven't seen all of it yet but this is coming from someone who isn't all into Action shows (The only one's I've seen are a few episodes of Inuyasha and Cowboy Bebop) I say it's amazing what I've seen so far, and it kind of makes me giggle when they talk about things that happened in the "past" (the show was made in 1995 but takes place in 2015 so sometimes they menchion things like spoiler[a meteor hitting the Earth and taking out half the world's population back in the year 2000]. But yeah, Neon Genesis Evangelion on Toonami would be a dream come true!

Family Guy and Cleveland routinely score 1.2-1.4 million 18-34.

Anime scores 300k.

Not happening.

Soul Eater got pushed back a half hour so it follows One Piece.

Since I don't plan on getting Hulu, and I have to watch something from the beginning due to my OCD, I won't be watching One Piece.

I hope when they do replace Eureka 7, that they have something good and not more crap like SBT, Thundercats and IGPX because right now it's down to Soul Eater, Eureka 7 and Inuyasha for me.


lol calling SBT and Thunder Cats crap. While praising E7 Thats cute. But hey to each their own I guess.

>_> American kiddy shows don't belong on adult swim. At least Japanese kiddy shows can be justified because of their content levels and plots which is why they're so big with adults while those two shows aren't.

Bleach and Naruto usually score over 1 million in the ratings, while Soul Eater sometimes does, and when it doesn't, it's usually no less than 900K.

I surmise it's because his numbers are the prized 18-34 age demo, while yours are total numbers.

Still, I find Toonami's numbers to be very impressive, much better than [adult swim]'s anime ratings a year ago. If the 18-34 demo is only getting 300K, then what demographic does the other 700k come from for Bleach and Naruto?

TitanXL, you know you're wrong for that!

When I read "One Piece" and "Rhyming," I nearly had a panic attack. Thankfully it wasn't 4Kids round 2.
LOL VIZ and nothing about Australia.

Now This is why [adult swim] and Cartoon Network are acting like Nickelodeon replaying FOX Animation Domination. Because of this Futurama on Comedy Central are getting cancelled again then The Cleveland Show on FOX good. Why [adult swim]? you are boring. PurpleWarrior13 Mentioned expand like [adult swim] in 2003 this is the 10th anniversary of Futurama on [adult swim] then.

Does DVD count? Season 1 Voyage to Season 3 Voyage.
*Skips Skypiea arc* Starts on Season 4 Voyage skips first 9 episodes. leaving 168-206 episodes on DVD the rest on funimation.com then blocks outside United States goes facepalming.
Total 39 episodes all I could say is FAIL. Replaced Tenchi Muyo GXP and Cowboy Bebop. Where's Eureka 7 AO and InuYasha The Final ACT?

Sorry @Soundmonkey44 that was unintentional for 2 CN shows
