Unless you mean losing viewers for FLCL overall, but again, if they want to watch it that badly subtitled, they’re just gonna have to wait, just like when people who usually watch anime dubbed have to wait for something to get dubbed.

If the only way to (legally) watch it subbed is Toonami, people will watch Toonami.
 
But I think I understand why they did it now. It’s probably done to coincide with the BD release. So it that sense it’s the same as a typical anime movie, where it initially gets aired in a limited format, and the rest of us have to wait 3+ months until the BDs get subbed. But instead of airing in Japanese movie theaters, FLCL got aired on US tv as a dub.

People keep asking Toonami to air subtitled anime, but the people running the block have said that airing anything subtitled is ratings suicide. Toonami’s not going to air subtitled anime (barring special occasions like this year’s April Fools Day), just so they can appease a minority of sub-anime fans at the expense of a much bigger audience who will watch the shows dubbed.

Porque no los dos? They don’t have to air only subbed anime. And they can just put the sub online and air the dub on TV. Sub viewers watch everything online anyway.
 
>a minority of sub-anime fans […] a much bigger audience who will watch the shows dubbed
 
Just comparing KA views of the same show, you have that backwards. It’s not even close.

Anime fans who watch subtitles and Toonami fans are mostly separate. If someone would rather watch anime subtitled, they’re more likely to go somewhere like Crunchyroll. There’s some minor overlap between the two that wants Toonami to start airing subtitled anime, and as I said, it’s only a minority compared to the Toonami audience who would rather watch dubbed anime.

Having finished Uma Musume, I think the best comparison I can make to it is that it’s like a feel good sports movie from the 80s and 90s except with horse girls and more singing. Overall, the show is like Kemono Friends in that it is so much better than it has any right to be. The characters are extremely likable and it just leaves you all warm and fuzzy inside.
 
I will say, however, that while I would like a second season, the show doesn’t need one. In fact, I feel like that’s a trend with the currently airing seasonal anime. Last year, you had Miss Kobayashi’s Dragon Maid, Tsurezure Children, Gabriel DropOut, Kemono Friends, and Blend S, all of which I could easily see having a second season. That is in direct contrast with shows from this year like Comic Girls, Uma Musume, and Yuru Camp. All are amazing shows, but they all feel like they end on a perfect note. Like, they don’t need a second season.

FLCL Progressive is more coherent than the original series. Normally that would be a good thing, but I wish it was more insane to keep in spirit with FLCL. I do love the show, though. Also, I love the continual use of The Pillows Thank You, My Twilight.

I feel the same way with some anime. It has a story, it tells the story. Not everything has to be a grand, sprawling adventure. Those are nice sometimes too, but sometimes it’s good to wrap things up in a nice little bow, close the book, and bask in the satisfaction of a take well-told.

Golden Kamui ep 11. It’s not Villain of the Week if they come every 2-3 weeks, okay? At least they’re fun, and this ep was awesome. It also had some fairly blunt sexual connotations. And by that I mean they literally talked about dicks.
