They actually sell alot of stuff online that they don't have in the stores. Like I bought a few Batman graphic novels on there.

Agree with you there. They need to being back some of the old programming like Blood + and those types.

Yes!  This is the type of anime that gave me insomnia when AS first started.  Gakuen Mokushiroku: High School of the Dead is excellent, so get to work show play rights jockies.  Please

I am supremely picky on what anime I even watch and this is easily hands down one of my favorites, it is funny and the classically annoying panty and boob shots are exagerated for a reason which brings only a fraction of the humor.

 

The gore is amazing there is so much blood and I love it. Its situations and events are realistic and there are no "super powers" so to say which is why I love it.

 

Over all I really do enjoy this anime. It's quicky and it makes me chuckle along with giving me those excited chillbumps you get when you see zombie gore and applaud the brutallity of a zombie skullmash♥

Get out of my sandwhich.

The show MAY have been suggested and subsequently turned down for fanservice.  Which honestly is just another reason to hate the action block.

oh, for those obessed about anime promotion - please stop, youre just wrong. we cant even debate it because ive made a decent living by looking at promo schedules and ratings grids probably for longer than youve been alive. i can assure you that if anime promotion was the answer to anime success then youd see more anime promotion. cos then id be making more mad cash and wouldnt have to write things on the internet about anime. -Adult Swim President Mike Lazzo

High School of the Dead isn't exactly a crippeling loss for anyone.

HELPeR for the TOONAMI, Mobile Suit Gundam, Dragon Ball Z, Harvey Birdman and Perfect Hair Forever boards. Feel free to ask me anything on those topics.

Really depends what they get instead.

I'd personally want HSoTD to go opposite the other show they air to create the comparison block (Concrete data always beats conjecture), rather than not giving it a chance.

Ah that would be an interesting experiment.

 

However, there's a few slight problems.

 

One of those shows would probably air at 1AM and natural late night viewer drop off could make the experiment a bust.

 

And at least one of those shows is going to benefit from being next to Bleach while the other would not unless they aired one at 11:30 and one at 12:30 with Bleach at 12.

 

Or say Bleach takes a little break then you still have one show benefiting from both an earlier slot and a Boondocks lead.

 

So for comparison sake it's actually better to only air one at a time and have them air in the same slot.

Fair enough.  Then get both shows to air one after the other, ie: HSOTD completes it run, then air Stein's Gate/Tiger and Bunny and compare the stretch.

hmmm. haven't seen this thread in a while.

 

anyways, that bump that was hinting at 2 new animes hinted at one of them being HSotD (if anyone remembers that bump lol), but then the bump said that one of them had to be scaled down. so.....we'll see.

I remember that bump. I think the other one mentioned in that bump was Panty and Stocking. If both of these happened, I would sh*t bricks.

I'll admit, such a combo would do much to erase the negativity I feel with ASA.

I've seen it and that would be perfect for Adult Swim. I'm all for it.

I now have a facebook for my indie press group but its not ready yet so hold your horses ya crazies.
I'm happy we have Toonami back and I'll watch it and defend it with all my might, it's been a ray of hope in this wasteland of crappy original comedies.
Also Check out my suggestions for Toonami

Here's a list

Yeah they would edit the hell out of it. I like the block the way it is right now. I wouldnt wanna mess with that. If the block has to fade in obscurity then so be it.

Black Dynamite argues otherwise.

 

Also, I hate the way the block is now.  With kids shows and dialog heavy fails, it's terrible.

seriously what reason do these guys have not to air HoTD, its not like there is anything bad in it, and for god sake's the block is called ADULT SWIM, this show would be a refreshing fix to all the live-action crap adult swim has been shoving down our throats, too bad they probably won't air it, just like Elfen Lied : (
