Wow that’s fast. It hasn’t even been a full year since it was announced. I’m still putting my money on a 2025 release though
It'll probably be the same pattern they did with Ninja Kamui. I believe the first preview was July 2023 then the next trailer was February 2024 then it premiered a week later? If yeah, I'm guessing February 2025 for Lazarus.Wow that’s fast. It hasn’t even been a full year since it was announced. I’m still putting my money on a 2025 release though
Huge hit to Demarco’s credibility for him to have said he had no idea about this. Tells us he has almost nothing to do with the block even though a month and a half ago he was glad to soak up all the praise and credit for its conception.
I mean, I'm not a Naruto guy, but that's stings.
I don't know. Only time will tell. That's all I can say.So how much longer do we think Rewind will live?

Yeah, I can see that.If Toonami Rewind fails and ends broadcast, I can see Sailor Moon and Naruto move to the Saturday/Sunday lineup. Also, Naruto Shippuden is nearing its end anyways.

Which is an awful scenario, the last thing Saturday needs is another hour of reruns. Especially when we are in spitting distance of a Toonami without Naruto.If Toonami Rewind fails and ends broadcast, I can see Sailor Moon and Naruto move to the Saturday/Sunday lineup.

These types of changes are not made if the ratings are good. Especially when as you say, we aren’t even at 2 months.I am very appalled of what toonami did by skipping the Zabuza arc and moving to Chunin Exam arcs, I mean that arc is not even filler and is manga canon. And as for ratings, we can’t tell if Toonami Rewind ratings are slipping or not, I mean the block is only almost 2 months old, it’s kinda too early to judge how well the block did if the ratings are bad or not, and if the ratings are actually bad, a lot of people might end up reacting ‘Oh it’s another CKP situation again because of the ratings slipping’ and all that BS.
Naruto can’t be doing that bad if they at least had the confidence to put it in front of Kai. I have a feeling Naruto is suffering from these weeks of having an hour of Kai reruns in front of it which people have been very vocal about skipping.have a feeling Naruto is bombing and will be removed from the lineup. Even the chunin exams has some really weak episodes early on. I find the one where they’re all blatantly cheating on a written test laughable. I have a feeling Naruto will soon end up being removed from Rewind and relegated to the later part of the Saturday block, like Shippuden has been for years. In the lower stakes late night hours, Demarco can probably air all the episodes he likes without skipping.
They love specific groupings of episodes. The chunin exam fights? Yes sir. Sauske retrieval? Often cited as one of the best arcs in shonen. Episodes about Konahamaru and Naruto having diarrhea? Those are skippers, and AS should have known that.I thought people loved Naruto?
This is normal when they havent made an announcement yet. We should get some official schedules on Facebook tomorrow.So, Toonami's schedule is blank on the official AS page for August 3, so I thought I'd see if a third-party schedule source might have something when they eventually caught up. TV Insider's schedule is...also blank, but there's something interesting this time: Every instance of "TBA" is bunched into hour-long chunks instead of half-hour like how it's usually presented.

Could they have something planned for August 3 (and perhaps 10)? There's still plenty of holdover time between the MAWS marathon and Rick and Morty: The Anime.
I know I am the most staunch "Traditional TV isnt dead!" guy but I think Toonami might really indeed just be over now... And if I am wrong AWESOME, but I wont hold my breath.
