  1. The special thing for Toonami would be on St. Patrick's Day or April Fool's Day in 2022...
  2. On to the murky final arc of Season 5... 12:30 AM Tomorrow night (9/11-12/21) ONLY TOONAMI!!!
  3. Toonami may have to do some censoring, I fear. Hopefully not much though! If they could air Hellsing Ultimate and Kill la Kill they'll probably be able to continue with Demon Slayer!
  4. Yashahime turned out to be the biggest dropper of the night over last week: "Adult Swim’s line-up performed as follows : FENA: PIRATE PRINCESS down 0.02 to 0.20, MY HERO ACADEMIA down a tick to 0.18, YASHAHIME down 0.03 to 0.12, FOOD WARS down 0.02 to 0.11, BLACK CLOVER down 0.01 to 0.11, NARUTO up 0.01 to 0.11, DR STONE at 0.08/154K, and DRAGON BALL [SUPER] down 0.02 to 0.07/157K." At least Dr. Stone held steady with Attack on Titan! And next week we put Dragon Ball Super out of its misery after almost 5 years! Still, oddly sad to see it go...
  5. Nah, I think Toonami will use their "right of first refusal" on this one. But even if they don't, I guess I'll probably bite the bullet and get Netflix anyway for JoJo Part 6 by then.
  6. Not too shabby... https://showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-saturday-9-4-2021-top-150-cable-originals-network-finals.html Fena and MHA both Top 10 and over 300K! All shows made the Top 25, and Shippuden just barely landed outside the Top 20. What's interesting is both Fena and MHA had strong female viewership, equal to or greater than the Male viewership in both key demos 18-49 and 12-34, but then Yashahime LOST them, despite being a show ABOUT GIRLS! Maybe it won't be the shoujo heroine I thought it would be--unless Toonami gets in on the ground floor for the dub of Season 2. If they do, it would ostensibly be the first time since the original InuYasha in 2006 that [as] has aired dub premieres of the InuYasha franchise. And maybe if they don't have to wait 6 months for the dub of Season 2, the ladies will stick around for it in 2022. But we still have 13 episodes left of the first season and it could still catch fire with the ladies while it and Fena are still airing on the block together.
  7. I gotta give mad props to William Fredrick Knight as Danzo. He pretty much stole the show when he got screwed over!
  8. I suck. Hopefully I can stay awake for the encore this week rather than dozing in and out of consciousness...
  9. Fena: Pirate Princess may actually get a FRIDAY Night marathon on plain ol' [as] at some point, when enough episodes are out? I would think Midnight to 4 AM for 8 episodes, but Midnight to 5 AM for 10 episodes would work too, I guess. So far, the only Toonami show that has gotten a Friday night marathon was Samurai Jack Season 5. FLCL Seasons 2 & 3 haven't even gotten that treatment yet, and they probably won't ever. But Fena? You've got to believe the series WILL marathon at some point, but the question is when?
  10. Despite the fact that having a "Princess Hour" at Midnight would have been interesting for Toonami, I like having Yashahime and Food Wars! back to back. It makes for a Morgan Berry power hour of sorts, as she plays prominent supporting roles (Moroha and Rindo) in both shows. https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/food-wars-shokugeki-no-soma-the-fourth-plate/episode-1-2-3/.152666 Not sure why it took 3 episodes for the first review, but they get 3.5 stars! GOOD start to the new season!!
  11. Endeavor's redemption arc was pretty awkward indeed! https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/my-hero-academia/episode-105/.175524 4 stars--pretty good episode, despite the awkwardness!
  12. https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/my-hero-academia/episode-106/.175763 Great episode! Shame I somehow fell asleep during the MINISCULE commercial break! I don't even know how in the hell that happened!
  13. So funny story: I somehow crashed during the commercial break of MHA and woke up hours later, but I DID manage to watch this, sort of, on the west coast feed, although I had to rely on my DVR for the first 5 minutes or so. I don't get why people say this was a "bad" show, because this was one of the best episodes yet. Was it somewhat predictable? Of course. But at least it was impressive in what it was trying to do. https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/yashahime-princess-half-demon/episode-10/.167146 Well, I at least thought it was better than 2.5 stars, anyway. But I agree with the reviewer. More Moroha next week!!
  14. TRUST YOUR GUT!!! Unless you've been eating jalapenos. Then don't, I guess...
  15. The memory blades effect. The phenomenon where you don't know your enemy's identity until you cross blades with them!
  16. The Kakashi Saga continues with "A Shinobi Of The Leaf!" 2:30 AM TONIGHT, ONLY TOONAMI!!
