#U PICK

[newgabeorder]

Toon Time Theater presents... THE 6TH U-PICK POLL!

Hello, anime fans. This is Gabriel Ramos, the DJ and broadcaster for T3 Express and Toon Time Theater. August will be a heated up month considering how many cartoons will be joining the Saturday morning lineup now that HAIKYU!! Season 1 and THE SLAYERS TRY ended their runs. However, I've been indecisive on what to broadcast on August 10. I know (lunar) Tanabata will be happening, but I want to wrap up that Japanese holiday with something loud and strong. The possible programs and blocks for this poll are as follows:

* THE SLAYERS REVOLUTION (THE SLAYERS Season 4)

* The Tatami Galaxy

* Moriarty The Patriot

* PUELLA MAGI MADOKA MAGICA

* Overtake

* MF GHOST

* OSHI NO KO

* Heaven Official's Blessing

* Boogiepop Phantom

* E/I Block B: BARTENDER ~Glass of God~ & Ascendance of a Bookworm Season 2 (E/I)

You have until August 9 at 2 PM PDT to make your selection. When the time comes, I will end the T3 Express peepshow to review your selections before live-streaming SAILOR MOON. The cartoon (or block) with the most votes will join the Saturday Morning Animation Cram Session officially. Think of this U-PICK poll as a Tanabata tree, and think of your vote as a wish strip. Once Tanabata ends, I will cut off the poll time, and the most-voted program or block will flow away, with your wish being granted.

Such a big kid!!

Holden is officially back to (pre)school. His first day yesterday went great. He loved going to school and couldn’t wait to go back. I’m excited for him to make some new friends, and hopefully by extension, we’ll befriend some of the parents too.

We took the kids to our favorite farm for picking fruits and veg on Monday. We went home with 10 pounds of honeycrisp apples and almost 3 pounds of broccoli. I’ve never picked broccoli before. So cool!

I arrive home after a long day on campus and empty my pockets like an 18th-century pirate asked to leave behind all their weapons.

Toon Time Theater U-PICK

Salutations, anime fans. I am Gabriel Ramos, DJ and broadcaster for Toon Time Theater on the New Gabe Order Twitch channel. Now that NINJA KAMUI and IGPX: Immortal Grand Prix have ended, it's about time for another U-PICK poll. This time, I'm not playing around. You have until May 18 at 7 AM PDT to make your choices. When that time comes, I will end the Spotify peepshow and review your votes on both Tumblr and X. After I collect your votes and sum them up, I will reveal the next lineups for May 2024 before broadcasting Part 2 of the FRUITS BASKET (2019) Marathon.

Turns out MY ADVENTURES WITH SUPERMAN is getting a second season, but unlike the previous season, there will be Saturday/Sunday premieres, meaning that I am unable to live-stream the newest episodes when I return to Saturday morning cartoon blocks. You have two options:

A. Live-stream MY ADVENTURES WITH SUPERMAN on Saturday mornings only to be one episode behind the Toonami broadcasts

B. Live-stream MY ADVENTURES WITH SUPERMAN on Sunday mornings following the Toonami broadcasts, ensuring I live-stream the latest episodes possible

If you don't want me to live-stream that cartoon, I have Bartender (2006), Hell's Paradise (Jigokuraku), Kannazuki no Miko, SMILING FRIENDS Season 2 and FRUITS BASKET (2019): The Final Season as options. There is also Season 2 of HI SCORE GIRL, but if most of you vote for it, then it will be placed at the end of the lineup before HAIKYU!! as a Hall of Fame* program. I still want to sign off after HAIKYU!! to encourage viewers to get off their couches and play outside when a broadcast day concludes.

* The Toon Time Theater Hall of Fame is a sub-block dedicated to re-broadcasts of familiar cartoons previously shown on T3, as well as some classic cartoons from the Millennial generation to Gen Z.

If you are new to my blog, I host a Saturday morning cartoon block on the New Gabe Order Twitch channel called Toon Time Theater. This is dedicated to make Toonami's programs more accessible to people with curfews preventing them from watching the block. Not only that, it serves as a bridge between the Saturday morning cartoon blocks of the past and the late night anime blocks of the present. On Toon Time Theater, I dedicate this block to the latest and greatest of animation. Programs include Pokémon (since Journeys), X-MEN (1992), NARUTO SHIPPUDEN, ONE PIECE (Wano Country arc), DRAGON BALL Z KAI and HAIKYU!!. Unlike MeTV's offerings, this is for Millennials and younger generations that crave for new (and appealing) content.

batfam meets the JL but it’s just the bat kids breaking into the watch tower during a debriefing or meeting to ask bruce the most mundane questions. they go about it like they’re interns that need to speak to the CEO during a board meeting. they walk over waving their hands and mouthing “i’m so sorry just need to ask batman something 😬” and then they lean over to bruce and ask something like “alfred wants to know if you’re gonna be home for dinner” and then they dip.

one of them started this when bruce didn’t answer their texts (it was probably tim or something) and now everyone does it.

Congratulations, viewers! X-MEN won U-PICK No.3 thanks to your participation... I guess.

I guess this month's U-PICK was my weakest U-PICK due to most of my current Discord servers not allowing self-promotion or advertising. Without them, how would I lure in any new viewers? If that's the case, might as well find a different strategy or something. ONLY ONE PERSON voted, and he or she wanted X-MEN, particularly, the 1992 animated series. I didn't expect X-MEN to win, but I was thinking that SONIC X would win since Sonic the Hedgehog (as the entire franchise) is more relevant and is very popular among video gamers and comic book readers. Well, I guess I will have to continue Toon Time Theater with X-MEN on the lineup all because of that one little vote. Here are my theories on why this poll was lackluster:

After finding out that DC SUPER HERO GIRLS can no longer be watched (physically or digitally), I made a last ditch effort to replace it with JACKIE CHAN ADVENTURES, contributing to the lack of "modern" cartoons.

I lacked the effort in assembling this poll. I had to learn my lessons from the first poll, particularly limiting the number of choices to reduce the chances for a Judgment. I had to do whatever I can, but it didn't improve for the better.

I timed my poll at the wrong time. Toonami was bringing back DRAGON BALL Z KAI for the 2020s, and I was doing a similar thing to buy some time until the 2026 World Cup rolls along, but a long runner was already chosen before I knew it. Even worse, I got into family issues that prevented me from live-streaming Saturday mornings for (less than) half of March, starting the Emergency Occurrence Filler Arc. My audience count became worse because of my transition back to Sunday mornings. Even I had a cartoon in the lineup that would only get new episodes on Saturday/Sunday after my originally-intended live-stream time, obviously, Saturday mornings.

April's U-PICK poll will promise to have three "modern" cartoons, a "retro" cartoon, and the winning pick will premiere after the Emergency Occurrence Filler Arc's conclusion, also wrapping up NINJA KAMUI* broadcasts on Toon Time Theater. This will be the final U-PICK poll for the Emergency Occurrence Filler Arc, and will do everything possible to satisfy new and old cartoon fans.

Well, that takes care of it. In case you missed my lineup announcements on Saturday night's Twitch stream, I am re-posting the lineups here and now. However, you don't have to take my word for it.

Not to mention BAKUGAN, the very first U-PICK winner, will have its season finale aired on my Twitch channel on April 14. After that, there will be additional changes to the Toon Time Theater lineup. I won't be giving out any additional details until around that date, but I can consider announcing the next U-PICK shows and details then.

NINJA KAMUI is the second U-PICK winner, but my viewers wanted to watch the series on Saturday mornings. I had to be generous of them when I started the Emergency Occurrence Filler Arc just so they can watch the newest episodes the morning after Toonami's broadcasts. I eventually went back to Saturday morning "reruns" when my family issues were finally attended to, continuing with my commitment with my viewers.
