This show has a big following, and no one's even breaking the bank. It's not a gamble in any way.

What are you basing this on? Do you think the show isn't popular because you don't like it?


toonami's co-funding the next two seasons and aired the first episode of the third season months before it was to be aired just as a joke

they are also rerunning FLCL S1 in a prime front runner spot on the block(despite the past proving that reruns up front bring poor ratings)

you can say it has a huge following but until the ratings prove it it's all just speculation

Do you think co-funding something is the same as breaking the bank? To my understanding, "breaking the bank" means to lose financial resources beyond what could be afforded.

Do reruns getting lower ratings specifically apply to FLCL, or does that apply across the board?

In your own words

"you only spend this much time effort and money on something if you know it's a guaranteed success

doesn't matter what you i or anyone else thinks...in the grand scheme of things"

They know it's going to be a success. We know it's going to be a success.

How do we know DBZ and Samurai Jack were such big deals? Sheer word of mouth. No one bothered to look up stats, we just knew on the basis that our communities were full of DBZ and Jack fans. The same applies here.

Did you deny that DBZ and Jack were popular until you looked up the stats? What are your sources for all your claims of proof, anyway?

It's only 6 episodes. Anyone that liked it would want more naturally.


if the ratings tank then toonami has only themselves to blame

there's no reason to believe FLCL S2/S3 will turn out as well for them as samurai jack S5 did


Most reasons that apply to any other new season of any given show can apply here. What's your hangup?


except most networks don't break the bank ona a show that's not really gonna put butts in seats like say DBZ Or Samurai Jack

you only spend this much time effort and money on something if you know it's a guaranteed success

doesn't matter what you i or anyone else thinks...in the grand scheme of things

FLCL isn't a DBZ level chart buster for toonami and it doesn't bring with it the unholy hype levels that Jack S5 did

Except that FLCL is one of the most beloved animes ever. So this whole argument is dead on arrival.

Its a 8.1 on MAL and 4.5 on Rotten, how is that not a guaranteed hit?

Because jojo also on hulu, funimation and other sources and its been out for ages, anyone that wanted to watch it already has and its where you don't have to wait for it. FLCL 2 and 3 is an exclusive to toonami so it shouldnt have those problems

if that was the case then whenever toonami played what people wanted it would have soared through the charts instead of flopping like a dead fish on the ratings

there's a whole topic about the ratings on the toonami board of this site

regardless the adultswim staff(even the ones that normally mock anime and crap all over it)adore FLCL and treat it like the second coming of jesus

that kind of worship is gonna bite them in the ass unless this does gangbusters

a company shouldn't just cater to themselves 9 times out of 10 because they aren't the customer and shoving your favorite show down someone's throat until they agree with your opinion is a good way to drive away people
