    Didn't comment last night but I DID watch, and yes, I agree that was a great episode, and I'm glad Senku's friends weren't left petrified over the mid-season break. Just for posterity, I think I'll post Episode 45's review here, since I never got around to posting it in the now-archived thread... https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/dr-stone-new-world/episode-10/.198954 Good enough for 4 stars, and now for the matter at hand: https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/dr-stone-new-world/episode-11/.199233 Yep, I'd give this one 4.5 stars alright, at least! I wonder if the crew will come across Byakuya's remains in the second half of this season. Would make for an interesting coda to his story!

  5. OwlChemist81
    Quietly sit back and watch as science does its thing! 12:30 AM tonight, only TOONAMI!!
  6. OwlChemist81
    Well, that was a neat twist! Super dark ending followed by a light flourish! Didn't see that coming!
  7. OwlChemist81
    OH HELL YEAH! THAT WAS AWESOME!!!
  8. OwlChemist81
    TENTACLE ATTACK!!!! But that won't stop Supes!

    Ironically, there is someone in our world who IS a weapon! Hint: he just got arrested tonight...

    Good assessment!

    Toonami didn't make Bleach famous, though you could argue [as] ACTN did. In fact, I would say it was ACTN's last major hit franchise, following in the footsteps of greats like Bebop, GITS, InuYasha and FMA. Yes, ACTN would have one more major hit show in FMA:B, but that was an extension of the FMA franchise. What shows has Toonami made famous? Obviously there were DBZ, Naruto, and the Gundam franchise, but while it had a hand in the post-ACTN era in making AOT, SAO, One-Punch Man, Jojo, and Demon Slayer (Season 1) famous by airing their dub premieres, those shows were ALREADY made famous in part by subtitled streaming. Just a different ball game then, and now that dub premieres are exceedingly rare--the big hits like MHA, YashaHime, and Dr. Stone had already streamed their dubs before coming to Toonami. I believe even Made In Abyss Season 2 streamed its dub on Hi-Dive before it aired on Toonami, so I believe the AOT special actually marks only the 3rd dub premiere episode of the year so far, with the 1st the One Piece/DBZ/Toriko crossover episode from 3/4 and 2nd the world premiere of FLCL Grunge airing right before. That’s insane for 9/9! By this time last year, we'd at least had Lupin Part 6.

    If you've ever been to an anime convention, you'd understand it falls under geek pop culture, and Turner/WBD recognizes the value of both.

    Grunge also has the Attack On Titan special backing it up, so its first week is pretty sure to do well, but after that, double One Piece will probably be far less effective. In an alternate reality, [as] gives up on anime and Toonami moves to TNT at 10 PM following AEW Collision. I'll bet whichever rerun airs then does fairly well right now...

    MAWS and Dr. Stone made the cutoff for the Top 400 Cable Originals, but One Piece and Shippuden didn't: https://www.spoilertv.com/2023/03/top-400-cable-shows-week-ending-26th_01602488462.html As for reruns, no Toonami shows made the cutoff, but kudos to Royal Crackers and the Boondocks on Tuesday night for landing on the Top 200: https://www.spoilertv.com/2023/03/top-200-cable-reruns-week-ending-26th_01243089880.html?m=1 205K at 1 AM on a Tuesday night? Not too shabby!

    Are we dealing with a 2-parter or a 3-parter here? "Hearts of the Fathers" seems to indicate that Zero Day will be just a 2-parter. I expect Jor-El to be involved somehow in the season finale!
  21. OwlChemist81
    Well thanks for letting me know! As I pay $15.99/month for the Disney bundle, good to know!
  22. OwlChemist81
    It is quite mysterious that there are no dubs yet for the 2nd cour of Bleach: TYBW, since it's about 2 weeks later than they appeared for the first cour, but perhaps some strike shenanigans are at play.

    Zero Day, Part 1 actually did pretty good on Thursday night: https://www.spoilertv.com/2023/08/tv-ratings-for-thursday-17th-august-2023.html ...as did Dr. Stone and Shippuden during Toonami: https://www.spoilertv.com/2023/08/tv-ratings-for-saturday-19th-august-2023.html All 3 of those placed in the Top 50 18-49. One Piece landed at #60 but all premieres got over 130K and 0.06, rounded off at least. https://www.spoilertv.com/2023/08/tv-ratings-for-sunday-20th-august-2023.html?m=1 Last but not least, note that ACME Night's Emoji Movie actually made the Top 150. The Justice League vs. Teen Titans movie last week did not.

    What the hell are you babbling about!? Toonami was FAR from obsolete 8-9 years ago! Was streaming prevalent? Of course it was, but in those days, Toonami was still able to get the hot stuff, like Parasyte, JoJo, and Gundam. And they DID get Demon Slayer Season 1 just 4 short years ago, LESS than 4 in fact! It's really funny that the same group of people pining for Bleach TYBW and Demon Slayer Mugen Train and beyond also decry that they can't get anything but sequel series--they ARE sequel series! Acquiring them wouldn't solve the problem!

    Second. Episode 5 ended on a cliffhanger with the team breaking up, but this one is far more brutal. Also notice it used the same background music as Episode 5's ED.
