User blog comment:KrspaceT/Toonami show reruns early Sat?/@comment-7866392-20150305045002

I think you're the only one here. As far as I know, a vast majority of the people I've seen commenting on this situation agree that Dragon Ball Z Kai (and maybe One Piece, but we'll wait and see on that one) airing on prime time will benefit Toonami and anime on television in general.

Mind you, Dragon Ball Z Kai airing at 8:00 PM is the first time in a long time that [adult swim] and Cartoon Network have decided to air anime around that time. sketch said it best when he stated that it was a do-or-die moment, and thankfully, we were able to get the show to trend when it aired at that timeslot (that, and the decent ratings that encore airing has pulled probably helped with getting One Piece a prime time slot at 8:30 PM).

Hopefully, we'll be able to keep this up. We might even see anime airing on weekdays again like it did during [adult swim]'s early years.
