Toonami 2014 DBZKai Ratings!

[Theophrastus]

That's the closest Shippuden and One Piece have been to each other...ever? In quite some time, at any rate.

[sintzu]

Over 300,000 viewers tuned out after Kai and never came back in any capacity. They basically stuck around for Kai and then bailed.

Yet some fans still say it was a complete failure.

[Son Goku]

Kai's 8pm rerun slot is no more. As of tomorrow, King of the Hill is reclaiming the time slot (as well as 8:30).

Not a big loss. The Kai reruns never brought in all that great ratings to begin with.

So If I'm correct, Kai is around Super Vegeta VS Semi Perfect Cell? Or are we beyond that at this point?

Kai is at Episode 75 "Power Unknown! Android 16 Breaks His Silence!" the episode where 17 is absorbed by Cell and Tien fires his Tri-Beam against Semi Perfect Cell. Episode 76, which airs today, will feature more Tien firing his Tri Beams against Cell and then Cell destroying several islands to find where 18 is.

Rough week for everyone. Over 300,000 viewers tuned out after Kai and never came back in any capacity. They basically stuck around for Kai and then bailed.

Ouch. What the hell happen?

The other shows weren't DBZ.

I'm worried. Despite the reruns doing pretty bad, they did give the Toonami premiere's a boost. I hope I'm wrong and DBZKai will continue to do awesome without them.

[Hellspawn28]

I guess people are not getting into Iron-Blooded Orhpans. At least we have One Punch Man, which may be a huge hit for the network.

I don't understand this answer.

[sintzu]

I don't understand this answer.

The 300000 viewers only cared about DBZ which is why they didn't watch anything after it.

One Punch Man outperformed Kai, even though it was by a small margin. Let's hope that momentum keeps up. The rest of the block suffered a bit though. It seems as though most people tuned in for just Kai and OPM as over 300,000 viewers left the Toonami block after OPM and never came back in any capacity.

[ryou766]

While I mainly paid attention to Kai and OPM last Saturday night, I did leave the TV on Adult Swim for the remainder of the Toonami block.

Oh, as well as HxH. Can't miss that.

[Cure Dragon 255]

I think this is a great week. As much as I love One Piece those are nice numbers for the timeslot its on. And I dont care about Naruto so I'm fine with it performing like it.

[Hellspawn28]

I guess people are into the new Gundam show. Most casual TV viewers probably expect it to be like W or G Gundam. Glad that OPM did well. Too bad it didn't reach 2 million views like most people hope for.

[Cure Dragon 255]

You meant to say "Are not" into the new Gundam.

[Hellspawn28]

Damn it, I didn't get the chance to re-edit my post on time. One Punch Man's buzz has been good for Toonami. I see people liking the dub on Twitter and Facebook. Too bad it didn't break Akame Ga Kill's 2 million rating record for the first episode.
