No review until next week, since these episodes were presented as a one-hour special in Japan, but DAMN, did Diavolo like suffer the worst fate I've ever seen a villain suffer on Toonami or WHAT!?

Sorry, I haven't been feeling quite myself lately. Staying up late on Saturday nights for the late shows of Toonami is less of a priority for me anymore than sleep. That said, I did wake up at like 5:30 AM and watch this with the west coast before going back to sleep, and yep, I forgot what an asshole Urokodaki was! Next week, get ready to watch Tanjiro spend half the episode trying to break a big rock!

EPISODE 8: "School Trip Time/2nd Period" Koro-Sensei comes atcha with the 2nd half of the trip at a special time! TONIGHT (10/17/20) AT 2 AM!! ONLY TOONAMI!!!

Not surprisingly, this episode's dub is actually titled "Golden Wind Requiem."

"Adult Swim’s line-up performed as follows: DRAGON BALL at 0.18/381K compared to last week’s 0.19/429K JOJO’S BIZARRE ADVENTURE up 0.03 to 0.17, ASSASSINATION CLASSROOM up 0.03 to 0.17, BLACK CLOVER up 0.02 to 0.14/261K, FIRE FORCE up 0.05 to 0.15/270K, NARUTO up 9.04 to 0.13/234K, DEMON SLAYER at 0.13/246K, and GEMUSETTO MACHU PICCHU up 0.02 to 0.09/164K." Wow, considering how badly Super did, the rest of the block didn't do to shabby! Great start for the Demon Slayer encore! https://programminginsider.com/saturday-final-ratings-saturday-night-live-on-nbc-leads-entertainment-telecasts-in-total-viewers-for-second-consecutive-week/

Well, BAMA vs. Ole Miss won the night, but a little bit fewer heads up trump's ass means Toonami's JoJo and AssClass were able to crack the Top 50 again, with both shows checking in at 0.17! http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-top-150-saturday-cable-originals-network-finals-10-10-2020.html Hopefully next week the RTJ4 Holy Calamvote event will do even better, and Toonami will successfully ride its coattails!

If it's a weekly thing, Thanksgiving weekend would be about right: 10/13-10/19: 64 down to 32 10/20-10/26: 32 down to 16 10/27-11/2: 16 down to Elite 8 11/3-11/9: Elite 8 down to Final 4 11/10-11/16: Final 4 down to championship 11/17-11/21: Champion voting, announced during Toonami on 11/21 11/28: winner marathon

It's probably gonna get another break on Halloween and will most likely return 11/7, though that's not a sure thing. A 2 month hiatus on Toonami would do it some good so it can come back strong with Episode 137 in January. Man, this episode was pure campy rom-com, and I enjoyed it from start to finish, pretty much laughing my ass off at its utter offbeat ridiculousness! But the ANN reviewer was not as kind, though they did give it a better mark than its prequel, Episode 28! https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/black-clover/episode-135/.162086 - 3 stars. Yeah, I probably would have given it half a star higher!

The interesting thing about all of this is Monica herself appears to be pretty well endowed! https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/assassination-classroom/episode-7/.85451 Grade: B+. Yep, it was certainly strong enough to land on Toonami about 5 years later!

Wait, I don't think there were ever any computers!

Abby Trott is freaking amazing. She had to do all these Nezuko growls right here!

Damn, that episode of JoJo was good!!! Loved the twists and turns and crazy animation! True classic JoJo! https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/jojo-bizarre-adventure-golden-wind/episode-37/.148738 Even got a decent 4-star review from ANN, whose reviews have been kinda hard on JoJo lately!

Hopefully I can stay up tonight (10/10/2020) for... EPISODE 22: "A Brother's Determination" Our re-visit to the Nether is almost over, and season 2 looms! The night burns at 2 AM--ONLY TOONAMI!!

IS BACK ON TOONAMI TO END THE NIGHT WITH A SLASH!! (HERE'S THE OLD PROMO FROM THIS TIME LAST YEAR) TONIGHT, IT'S EPISODE 1: "CRUELTY" AT 3 AM! ONLY TOONAMI!!!

I'll venture a guess that this has nothing to do with Jesus. So who IS this "king of kings", exactly? Find out at 12:30 AM tomorrow and be CROWNED with knowledge!!

Celebrate it at 2:30 AM tonight (10/10/2020) with... Episode 314: "The Sad Sun Shower" ONLY TOONAMI!!

Page 135: "The One Who Has My Heart, My Mind, And My Soul" 1:30 AM Tomorrow night 10/10/2020 ONLY TOONAMI!!

Episode 7: "School Trip Time/1st Period" You're not fooling anyone, Koro-Sensei! 1 AM Tonight (10/10/2020)!! ONLY TOONAMI!

Gemusetto is like PHF but with an even less likeable protagonist!

I don't know about a "fine" way, but it is a way... ...this also indicates they MAY not be having a Thanksgiving marathon... But dear GOD, if they decide to marathon this on Toonami... 🤬

You have a point--they may very well be!

I have mixed feelings about this. It does seem that the quality is up a notch from the April Fool's gag of a first season, but if they were always going to do this, why not grant the first season Toonami bumpers?? Also, Ass Class is kicking ass at 1 AM. Why mess with that!?

Wow, we knew Ass Class edged out JoJo, but just look how close it was!! https://programminginsider.com/saturday-final-ratings-snl-on-nbc-attracts-its-second-largest-season-premiere-audience-in-12-years/ That's ROCK BOTTOM for 2020 in Adults 18-49, at 156K. The good news is it can only go up from here, right??

Since due to the news-bomb that was trump catching COVID, the news ruled last Saturday, and neither JoJo nor AssClass made the Top 50 (both with 344K total viewers). http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-top-150-saturday-cable-originals-network-finals-10-3-2020.html "Adult Swim’s line-up performed as follows: DRAGON BALL at 0.19/429K compared to last week’s 0.09/208K & 0.09/251K and 0.22/458K, JOJO’S BIZARRE ADVENTURE down 0.07 to 0.14, ASSASSINATION CLASSROOM down 0.06 to 0.14, BLACK CLOVER down 0.05 to 0.12/270K, FIRE FORCE down 0.05 to 0.10/213K, NARUTO down 0.06 to 0.09/179K, SAMURAI JACK down 0.04 to 0.07/153K, and GEMUSETTO MACHU PICCHU down 0.02 to 0.07/140K." Hopefully Demon Slayer in its 2nd run can bring up the rear better than its umpteenth-run predecessor. Would be nice if it stayed 200K or better!

It's TWO MONTHS. Black Clover WILL be back!!
