  1. Damn, what a cliffhanger!!! Can hardly wait for Season 6! But first, I think it's time for me to catch World Heroes' Mission in a theater one of these days!
  2. Soma and the gang are back with another taste bud busting recipe or two! 1:30 AM TONIGHT (11/6-7), ONLY TOONAMI!!!
  3. Moroha is a double-edged sword. She kicks ass, but she's kinda silly. Definitely the goofy dragon head in the famous meme. Watch her next bounty fail epically tonight at 1 AM! ONLY TOONAMI!!
  4. Your MHA Double Feature tonight is the last half of the Shigaraki back story, plus the thrilling conclusion of season 5! Don't miss the full hour of MHA, tonight starting at Midnight on Toonami!!
  5. I don't think it was THAT video, but it probably SHOULD have been!
  6. Well, folks, I'm not expecting anything for Halloween weekend since we saw absolutely NOTHING new on Toonami save for that weird music video which aired at 3 AM, but we DO finally have a number for Batman: The Long Halloween, Part 2: 0.06/144K at 2:30am So there you have it. It clearly was disqualified accidentally for some reason (perhaps they thought it was a repeat of Part 1, as cable stations are sometimes wont to repeat movies in back-to-back timeslots on the same night). Had it been classified correctly, it would have landed between #66 and #76.
  7. Interesting. Most people seemed to be stoked for it and then were underwhelmed by the series' (or at least season's) rather bizarre and unsubtle ending.
  8. Well I'll be... It IS gonna be Rick & Morty shorts, to the surprise of almost nobody, but at least that's not ALL... https://toonamifaithful.com/this-week-from-toonami-33/ Come on, Toonami! You couldn't at least FINALLY air the "Black Out" special!?
  9. 2 episodes of this marathon left. And though I dozed quite a bit through it, I've actually been home for it, when I could have been out Halloweening if not for not being used to the cold yet.
  10. Sad to hear that. I may go to see it tomorrow.
  11. I'm here, I guess? Episode 2: An Inherited Journey
  12. MAL is a bunch of elitist snobs. I follow ANN. Yashahime is only about 1500 below Fena there, which actually has pretty good reviews. (2.5☆+)
  13. I will admit that the ending wasn't necessarily very subtle, and that took away from the show somewhat. The prognostication that Fena would have to choose between "Blue Water and Storm Clouds" was something I expected to play out on the way to Eden, not when she actually got there. And the amnesia twist somehow made sense to me despite the glaring lack of subtlety. There is almost no doubt in the viewer's mind that despite her love for Yukimaru shining a light, Fena has chosen storm clouds, and that could play out in Season 2. Even if it wasn't necessarily a ratings hit, I feel that this show has a decent shot at an Emmy nomination like Genndy Tartakovsky's Primal, and if it wins would happen as Toonami's first co-pro Emmy on their 25th Anniversary!
  14. I'm sorry, I'm actually kind of excited about the Double MHA and the return of Yashahime now that it FINALLY has a semi-coherent plot. Food Wars I can take or leave, and maybe because they spam it I'm into Shippuden more than usual, too. Yes, I am a little underwhelmed that Fena sheepishly takes the 2:30 timeslot knocking Toonami back to 5 premiere slots. Who wouldn't be? But I feel that the shorts block will sort of make up for that if it contains new content and not just Rick & Morty shorts. I could see Cosmo Samurai and the Iron Maiden videos ending up replaying there too. Plus, my DVR recordings of the first 2 episodes of Fena screwed up, and now I know that if I can't get home in time for them All Hallows Eve Eve and if they screw up again, then I have a THIRD chance to capture them, something we didn't get with the FLCL sequels in 2018. November 20th will be the true test to see if Toonami is stuck in a holding pattern with new anime acquisitions until the end of the year. If they sheepishly move up 1-2:30 AM to 12:30-2 AM and then throw on MHA Season 5 reruns at 2 AM, THEN I might be worried.
  15. I don't get what you're saying by "nothing" exciting in this update. If you ask me, this is PLENTY exciting, although the excitement level is down considerably from the Batman movies.
  16. I kinda hope Toonami airs Season 1 again before Season 2. Maybe this time uncut for time as a marathon on January 1st, but if not, one of the late night slots would do fine. They DID say HBO Max would get exclusivity for the first 60 days, right? If that's the case, then a January 8th Toonami premiere would seem to make sense to me. Air it and Blade Runner: Black Lotus back-to-back in the Midnight hour to REALLY piss off the 2D animation purists! 🤣
