 there are so many people to blame including those behind Toonami as well.
1. Gundam Seed sucked.
2.
Trying to be like other channels with higher ratings even though that
hurt Toonami's fanbase of those that fled those other channels like the
plague for that very reason, there by bringing the ratings down.
3.
Anime quality went down. It was either that no one was prescreening
anime for awesome factor anymore, or that anime in general's quality
went down. Regardless, someone was asleep at the wheel in a desperate
bid to get anime company money and we paid the price for it.
4.
Anime companies seemed to have it out for the channel in general, with
some anime's that never even had a final season or an unsatisfactory
end or pulled from the channel entirely. Very unprofessional looking
for both parties.
5. Scheduling conflicts between Toonami and
AS. In my opinion, this was corporate sabotage. Toonami got popular
enough that they were talking about another channel and their boomerang
channel was tanking, so as if to spite it's self, they create another
block, put it out even later, make it seem more mature, which
eventually became reality, make TOM look like shit and make it seem
like only Naruto was playing that night, which was also fruitless
because most naruto fans had already moved on to shippuuden via the
internet, or fell out of love after the filler, which may be the very
reason why they tried to play so much of it.
In the end, Toonami got left holding the bag and even though I don't think it's fair, it's as good a time as any to end it. |
