Weird that I'm actually home in time for the start of this, but after pacing myself with 9 drinks, I really had no desire to add a 10th!

Guess not... http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-top-150-saturday-cable-originals-network-finals-11-21-2020.html Fire Force and Ass Class back over 300K though, plus Ass Class up 0.02 in 18-49, while SAO went DOWN 0.02. Interesting... All 3 proper anime premieres up pretty big in 18-34 though!

do you think we'll have two marathons in december?
OwlChemist81 replied to CountFrylock's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
I think one reason a January 2nd marathon may be more attractive than a December 19th marathon is it buys time for a new show right in January (other than SSSS:Gridman, that is). If the final season of AOT still has a "dub must premiere on Toonami first" clause, as we have suspected since Season 2, buying time for the dubbing of the first few episodes would be a good thing, even if it has to go back into partial hiatus when Yasha-hime or something like that is ready. -
Gemusetto Death Beats Initial Thoughts?
OwlChemist81 replied to CountFrylock's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
I don't believe the show has even aired on [as] since then. I know there was a marathon planned to air in July or something, but it got pulled at the last minute. It actually seems like the whole thing got Jimmy Rebeled. But then again, a few episodes ARE still streaming! -

Gemusetto Death Beats Initial Thoughts?

I'm not sure Squidbillies is actually still going. Early Cuyler's VA got fired from [as] for being a racist asshole. -
DeMarco says tonight's Pre-Flight will be the last
OwlChemist81 replied to CountFrylock's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
...interesting!! Is it still Saturday nights right before Toonami? -
Still under the entertainment blanket, and that virtual con did have events going on during Toonami on the 22nd of August. It's a streaming service under the same corporate roof. I mean, if you really want to be technical about competition with Toonami, the video game reviews are also sort of like that. You can do both in the hours that Toonami ISN'T airing, but of course you also can during those in which it is.
-
It isn't really THAT different from the Dark Nights Batman takeover back in August. It was really just to promote that weird DC Fandome thing. It will be interesting to see what their next show marathon will be. It probably will be an ordinary show Toonami decides to marathon. Also, there is actually a VERY good chance now that Season 2 of Primal IS a Toonami original! Probably same goes for BallMastrz 9009 Season 3. Then again, it's also likely that both pull a gen:LOCK and become HBO Max originals.

I would also lump Gundam IBO Season 2 into those shows. But it was more of a Shakespearian tragedy than just an endless stream of horrible things. Even so, both halves of the show DID have their share of sacrifice (Biscuit in Episode 21, for example) as well as just hopeless death (Lafter in episode 41). It also seems to lack the Shakespearian standard of a "climax", although you could argue that the fight with the Mobile Armor in episodes 35-38 where all characters are on the same page to defeat a truly FEARSOME foe kinda fits the bill.

https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/assassination-classroom/episode-12/.86998 Grade: B+. Probably the best reviewed episode of Ass Class yet. I just hate that I can never seem to stay up for it so I often have to watch it on my DVR the next day!

If you're reading racism into this, I wonder where you're getting your entertainment. I didn't see this as racist at all, but that's because other uses of "gorilla" in entertainment are not when referring to Black people, as far as I can tell. I believe in one anime, one character called another a completely gross gorilla or something, and they weren't Black. Also, the biggest use of "gorilla" in pop culture I know of is in one episode of the Simpsons, one character remarks that "they shaved a gorilla" when referring to Homer Simpson. Also, the credits on Dennis Miller Live always used to refer to Miller as the "800 pound gorilla"--and of course, he's WHITE! So, my take on the use of "gorilla" here is that it's not really a racist term, but a reference to his lack of sophistication and/or imposing visage. https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/fire-force/episode-27/.161975 Four stars! Too bad we have to wait until December 5th for it to air on Toonami, but more of this, please!
