The same was said about MHA in 2017... The word "ever" was not used in the case of Mob Season 2. It was more along the lines of "No matter how hard we try".

Well, we still don't know how Super did in total viewers, but... http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-top-150-saturday-cable-originals-network-finals-7-25-2020.html "Adult Swim’s line-up performed as follows: DRAGON BALL at 0.07/211K & 0.11/249K and 0.27, compared to last week’s 0.08/215K & 0.09/217K and 0.18/436K, a special RICK & MORTY short at 0.26, PARANOIA AGENT up 0.09 to 0.24/422K, MOB PSYCHO 100 up 0.07 to 0.23/391K, BLACK CLOVER up 0.07 to 0.22/363K, and NARUTO up 0.04 to 0.15/283K."

To be fair, it did get fewer total viewers than Paranoia Agent did at its peak with Episode 11. I have high hopes for JoJo's return. It COULD crack 500K quite easily!

Well guess what? We actually DID have a cable original air on Toonami in the month of July after all! Here's how it did: http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-top-150-saturday-cable-originals-network-finals-7-25-2020.html Won the night in Adults 18-34, and Female and Male 12-34! Plus #2 in Adults 18-49. Not bad for a total surprise! And this came as no surprise 5 years ago: More to come!

Fire Force Season 2 is now coming October 24th. That's this year. How's that egg on your face taste? Though granted, between Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas/New Years, it's coming out in a wasteland of potential marathon interruptions that will probably result in only 6-7 episodes premiering before the end of the year, but still...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't they say at AX Lite that the dub would be streaming in August? If Toonami still has dibs on all the dub premieres of the mainstream series, that means that, yes, it would be coming in August! And BTW, in my book, streaming on [as]'s piddly little app still counts as "Streaming!"

I guess Shippuden also counts, kinda sorta...

If that's the case, why not just go ahead and bump Black Clover up to 1 AM and stick Fire Force at 1:30? Also, I'm keeping my November recording of Episode 15 because I'll bet they'll shorten "Mayday" this time. Prove me wrong, Toonami!

Who said it has to be finished? It just has to have enough episodes done so that it can continuously air once a week for 12 weeks, save for Labor Day Weekend (9/5) and Halloween. For SAO to get its first ever-marathon on Halloween might be kinda fun too!

The X-Factor is SAO, and that's a strong show, but not strong enough to send DBS back to the vault...

I will LOL so hard if they end up slotting SAO:A WOU 2 (Electric Boogaloo) in Black Clover's place at 1:30, but I don't think they'll do that. If we're not going directly into Mob Psycho 100 Season 2, look for that to either: replace Mob at 1 AM on August 9th, play an annoying game of switcheroo with JoJo and stick it at 1 AM while it takes 12:30, or to expand Toonami to 11:30 and take over Midnight. SAO is a pretty strong show, and even broke 500K a couple of times back in March and April, including for its mid-season finale. In fact, Toonami didn't lose Midnight until that mid-season of SAO ended. This really could be the SERIES finale for SAO, so I doubt they'll mid-block it. That could also lead Toonami to keep 11:30 for the foreseeable future if AOT's final season and/or MHA Season 5 is ready to go afterward, but I think they'll keep the lead slot DBS until the originals are ready in the second half of 2021, though Uzumaki may grace us with its twisted presence in a later timeslot in the first half.

Are you talking about Mind Game?

Staying at 3 hours 30 minutes, and Jack is back!

"Secre" bleu!

Somebody should tell this guy that Toonami stopped airing Boruto...

Well, as much as I loved the special stuff and trailers, I've got to admit that the lack of any information for the immediate future is disheartening. I hate to have to go into "if I were them" mode, but if I were them, I'd move Black Clover up to 12:30 and slot the returning JoJo at 1:30--IF it's even coming back. The future beyond the pandemic is bright for Toonami, but we have to get through this pandemic first, and that immediate future is anything BUT.

Dammit, I fell asleep before the vampire episode (though I did sort of wake up later that night and catch it), but somehow I missed the Vampire Hunter Dee thing! And I heard there was a Monogatari reference in one of these episodes?

...HUH???

Get ready for... Episode 13: Big Boy Body, Bigger Baby Boy Heart! Can You Endure The Pain of Love? Babyball, Discover It Now!

WAIT, SERIOUSLY!? Hey, new ending?? https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/black-clover/episode-126/.157609 3.5 stars. Same as episode 125, just in case you were wondering!!

Aww, this is so romantic... ...oh wait... ...this is some 12th Night stuff!

Ask him out! ...but as often as he takes a dump, yeah, you're gonna need a butt-plug...

Ummm, wow!!!

At this point, I'm coming around to your way of thinking. But there's still Ballmastrz and Shippuden, so I guess we'll see??

Well, I guess there's always 2021! I mean, it's like, "yeah, great there's all this great stuff coming in the future, but what about NEXT WEEK!?"
