Toonami has hinted at its future in the world of anime, originals and all!
✖ Toonami has been one of the top spots for fans in North America to watch anime series for the first time or revisit some of their favorite series that were created by artists in Japan, and a recent question and answer session saw the co-creator of the Cartoon Network programming block sharing some interesting tidbits regarding the future of anime on the platform.
In the recent Q&A session, one of the major things that Jason DeMarco noted was that Demon Slayer's second season wouldn't be appearing on Toonami, as the recent success of Mugen Train made it"too expensive" to be a part of Cartoon Network's platform.
DeMarco also mentioned that Toonami might be moving more away from"Shonen anime," following the clarification that Demon Slayer was no longer a part of the programming block. When asked about anime that is streaming on Netflix, it seems that said series will be locked down for around"twenty-five years," so seeing them hit Cartoon Network seems unlikely at this point.
On the originals front, Toonami has another series in the works that will arrive this year, alongside Shenmue The Animation and Junji Ito's Uzumaki, while also noting that there are three planned original series for next year as well. Though Toonami might not be able to rely on Shonen franchises as much as they once had, thanks in part to how popular anime has become in general, it seems that they're moving full steam ahead when it comes to their original content.
