Well folks, Fang laid an egg (and then 2 more) on Saturday night and the rest of Toonami followed suit: https://showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-saturday-8-20-2022-top-150-cable-originals-network-finals.html Not even posting the grid, because there isn't a single Toonami show on it. Yashahime checked in at #57 with 137K and a 0.07 18-49 and then it went downhill from there. At least Shippuden managed to keep it above 100K, and Lupin of all things was last at #71 but with a 0.06 18-49, which indicates the Blade In Abyss power hour just might not be a bloodbath after all!

While generally considered a long-shot for Toonami, in the absence of a FanDome event this year (which could still come in October after Housing Complex C like what happened with Fena last year), you couldn't come up with a cleaner plan than showing a dub premiere (?) of this September 24th, then following up with the rest of the series starting in November! Gundam at Midnight in 2022, why not? But just on the considerably-more-than-off chance that doesn't happen, it's good to know gundam.info has our backs!

It comes right after the Z(ed) mini-arc, right? According to my DVR, we are on Season 15, and probably the tail-end. If that translates to Season 9 in the DVD collection or something, then I guess when it's over, Season 16/10 is next!

Mr. Kirin is Kirinmaru, LOL!!! I saw this episode last night on my phone, so no way to comment or to hear the voices. But damn, as soon as I heard Crispin's voice coming from Mr. Kirin, that was painfully obvious indeed!! https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/yashahime-princess-half-demon-the-second-act/episode-4/.178774 Me too, Mr. Reviewer, I want to like it too, since it's the second best thing Toonami's got going for it right now. But I would probably have been a little more generous than just 3 stars. Maybe 3.5 or 4. On a side note, my DVR is screwing up royally lately, so I might be trying to catch more shows live. Though I CAN watch them otherwise on my DVR, it's like playing musical chairs to do so.

Yep, or rather, SHE went there!

Damn, flitted in and out of consciousness AGAIN tonight! But that ending theme... I used Shazam to discover Water by X Ambassadors. https://www.shazam.com/track/588774583/water

The jellyfish DIE afterward? That's just mean!

We're still in filler hell!

Don't screw with the Navy! For once, they're on the same side!

Is Alpachino's weird ability the result of a Devil Fruit?

Here comes an ass kicking!

Who knows?

Wait, it's not just the two? Then we're done with it after NEXT WEEK!

That definitely makes sense!!

Z(ed)'s Ambition IS a Filler Arc, but at least we're done with it tonight!

WE GO...AGAIN!!

Basque Gran(d), the Iron Blood Alchemist?

This is a wacky-ass episode!

Lupin gets into yet another crazy caper tonight! It's part 1 of 2 at 1 AM tonight on TOONAMI!!

The battlefield is no place for a child! See more at 12:30 AM Tonight on TOONAMI!!

If you haven't seen it, watch it tonight! This episode got back to the action, but it had a little of everything and a shocking final sequence! Midnight tonight on TOONAMI!!

From the lineup about 3 months ago I'd be inclined to agree with you. But now? Not so much. And with Housing Complex C coming, it's clear Toonami stays a few more months at least. In other news, it looks like PRIMAL did OK on Thursday night, checking in at #23 in 18-49 and at least tying for 4th in 18-34: https://showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-thursday-8-18-2022-top-150-cable-originals-network-finals.html

While Mob Pyscho may be lost in Crunchyroll hell, there IS a strong chance of this coming to Toonami someday!!

Perhaps we get a double-shot of YashaHime on September 24th? As far as I can tell, that's the only night that Midnight isn't booked through November. Yashahime started July 30th, so it's almost guaranteed to bleed into 2023 unless they double or even triple up a whole bunch in November and December. Plus DC FanDome remains an X-Factor... We also only have 8 episodes left of Lupin, so it will be done and looking for a replacement on October 15th. That's the time frame of FanDome last year, so it's also possible that follows Yashahime and/or* Housing Complex C this year if Toonami doesn't have an immediate replacement. (*Note on the use of "And/Or": "1 and/or 2" means 1 and 2 may hold true, or just 2, but not just 1. Therefore, I used it correctly.)
