I'm in awe. ABSOLUTE AWE!!! Well done, TOONAMI!!

Welcome back, Annie! ...are you OK? 12:30 tonight, ONLY TOONAMI!!

Did TNT and/or TBS plug Shenmue and/or The Return during the games? If so, it seems that may have boosted the ratings a bit!

Well folks, we've only got 3 episodes of Made in Abyss left, and they're SURE to be disturbing as hell, but once they're done, Toonami has a gaping hole (no pun intended) in its schedule beginning on April 16th at 1:30 AM. So what will they use to fill it? I want the movie on Toonami, and Jason certainly hinted at that. Perhaps it would take a spot from Ass Class for a week and it would air at 1 AM, but then what after that? Have Sentai and Toonami gotten in on the ground floor with a simuldub of that? Then, there's always a potential return to Food Wars with Season 5. It got a head start on HBO Max earlier this month, so it would be a natural for a timeslot on Toonami, especially airing that late. Yashahime Season 2 is another potential taker for that slot. What do you think it will be? Of course, the big elephants in the room are Shenmue and Attack on Titan, which are down to 6 episodes each, which means they are likely to end April 30th, so we'll need some SERIOUS new blood on Toonami on May 7th!

The Return TIE wasn't the ONLY "Return" for Toonami last week, as the entire 12-2 AM hour makes its triumphant return to the Top 50: https://showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-saturday-3-19-2022-top-150-cable-originals-network-finals.html Not only did Shenmue crack the Top 20, but it was in fact the highest-rated non-sports-or-news program! Plus it was also the highest-rated non-sports program in 18-34! And since Made In Abyss checked in at #48, I guess viewers weren't too horrified at an anime character bleeding from the eyes? 0.10 in 18-49 and 0.15 in 18-34 with 158K total viewers suggest the viewers were overwhelmingly in those demographics--0.10 in 18-49 is about 128K and 0.15 18-34 about 105K.

Uhh, I've been watching Made in Abyss on Toonami? I just didn't seem to notice the content rating bug at the top of the screen. I'll be SHOCKED if this episode got a TV-14, because that was BRUTAL!! Edit: Just watched the first few seconds of the online stream, and saw it. That TV-MA was WELL earned!

Yeah, 18 seasons of this completely ass plot a character just pulled out of his ass!

Or is Madara just talking out his ass?

Probably to be revealed in the next 15 minutes, right?

Not really. The beginning of the Return was tonight!

How in the hell is this a "kidnapping?" It's more of an escort!

Megalo - Box!? I wanted Season 2 of that show on Toonami, but this is ridiculous!

Well, they seem to have what goes in those panties! At least on the front side, but we're not sure about the back side. They may have fish anuses, which would I guess disappoint Ian Sinclair's OTHER character, Space Dandy!

Why Brook? You can't even get a bone-- ...uhh, nevermind!

This Neptune is not so bad. But his Greek equivalent Poseidon was a total asshole!

Meanwhile, Luffy is stuck in the WORST character arc I think I've seen yet on this show!

Oh, "Hordy," not "Horny."

https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/made-in-abyss/episode-10/.121142 Grade: A+! Attack on Titan's gore seems somewhat gratuitous at times, but this was not. The worst peril yet for Riko, but has she just been saved, or has she fallen into even more trouble? Why do Cave Raiders fear Hollows like Nanachi? Given the end credits, she(?) doesn't seem she's anything to fear...

We suck. No one even bothered to make a One Piece thread. This arc is starting to piss me off after so much promise!

A HOLLOW!?

Riko is 12 years old.

MOUTH TO MOUTH!! And the mutant bunny voice sounds kinda like Haruko!

She probably has a fever of about 105!

This is only a short time. Poor Connie's mom has been Titanized for FOUR YEARS!

WRONG!!! But this is TAME compared to AOT!
