Are you sure? I thought stuff was going down WHEN Season 2 was released!

Did they get a new actor to voice Reigen in Season 2??

Oh yeah, Mob's the real deal!

This is actually my 2nd favorite episode in the show!

Feeling pretty Gentle these days whenever I'm out in public!

You guys are asses!

I guess that's fine!! This one had a promo!

Replaying gen:LOCK would be a start, especially since now they could probably run it uncut at the back of the block! Then again, maybe the fact that 3 reruns are leading the block right now is just a testament to how topsy-turvy 2020 really is??

As things currently stand, we would get episode 87 on 6/13 and 88 on 6/20, which means we would then still need a 30-minute filler on 6/27. That could mean either sheepishly rerunning MHA #88, or perhaps a mega-cut of The Forge. I will be shocked if Toonami doesn't do a marathon on the 4th of July, when it ends up on a Saturday, but they may not this year. If they learn from 2019, they'll still do one then but not Memorial Day (they're not) or Labor Day Weekends since the ratings both of those weeks were decent last year. But the regular lineup on July 6th, despite having the premieres of Gundam The Origin and Food Wars, stunk to high heaven, so a marathon on July 4th seems academic to me.

I don't remember Tamaki being that thicc. Gonna have to rewatch, but I think she was a bit slimmer than that in Season 1. And Japan seems to be acing their corona crisis, while we're doing mediocre at best, and failing miserably at worst!

Eh, I'm used to it by now. Not as bizarre!

EPISODE 003 - AN INVITE TO A MEETING: SIMPLY PUT, I JUST WANT TO BE POPULAR! 1 AM Tomorrow night (5/23/20-5/24/20) ONLY TOONAMI!!!

Page 118 (Season 3, Episode 16): "A Reunion Across Time and Space": Last time you remember, Nero revealed her true form, and we got a flashback to the Giant Demon battle! What will happen next? Watch tonight and find out! The first truly original thing on [as] tonight (5/23-5/24/20), at 1:30 AM ONLY TOONAMI!!!

Episode 5 - The Holy Warrior For God's Sake, get that man some smokes! (Probably brought to you by Truth) 12:30 AM Tomorrow Night (5/23/20-5/24/20) ONLY TOONAMI!!

Episodio 27: Emperor Crimson vs. Metallic(a?) It may be a holiday weekend, but the Modern Crusaders continue their conquest!!! 2 AM 2MORO NITE (5/23/20-5/24/20) ONLY 2NAMI!!!

You mean no simul-dub, or it will never be dubbed at all??

Huh? You must have me mixed up with someone else. I most certainly have never said Toonami is about to end. Am I a realist who realizes Toonami has competition and doesn't always get the best ratings? Of course. But that's a far cry from saying it's gonna get cancelled again soon! This [as] Toonami is most likely gonna outlive the old CN Toonami!!

The irony is that it may be the mass-gathering super-spreader events that are the REAL catalyst for this pandemic, so recording in booths may actually be relatively safe! I'll bet they'll be back in the booth by July, but we still won't be having sporting events with fans until at least September.

But Toonami had to deal with the Swine Flu in 2009--oh right. Not about to dare declare Toonami over but it is certainly fair to say they're in kind of a weakened state right now.

I dunno; beats the hell outta me! https://programminginsider.com/saturday-final-ratings-12-million-watch-graduate-together-america-honors-the-high-school-class-of-2020-across-various-networks/ So there have it. Family Guy couldn't even muster 700K and it's Toonami who suffers. Third-worst rated block of the year so far in both total viewers and Adults 18-49, but as for the 12-3 AM time frame, in 18-49, this lineup was actually the second-worst. Amazingly enough, Mob Psycho rebounded from Paranoia Agent, and that boost was enough to beat its premiere on November 3rd, 2018 in 18-49! So now in 18-49, this early-block rerun is 2 for 2 in outrating its premiere! Perhaps premieres really don't have that much value to the block over reruns, despite Toonami's near-purging the block of them last summer?

I have the West Coast feed, so 7:30 AM for me!! I usually listen on the way to work!

Shippuden will always be in premieres, though I'll admit a 3-hour block of reruns back-to-back followed by one premiere would be beyond bizarre (no pun intended). And you have to think at some point we'll get Food Wars and the like back.

Well, the wording he used was "cut", not "slashed." And from what we previously knew, what's happening now would more likely affect the 2021 budget if it resets every year, but I suppose the 2020 budget was actually made prior to the year's beginning, but had to be adjusted downward about 2 months in. This is all speculation, of course, but DeMarco's statement that the budget was cut at least partially supports this hypothesis.

I had a feeling that due to UFC, it would be a rough week for Toonami, but at least MHA managed to beat the ESPN SportsCenter that came afterward in total viewers and a few key demos: http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-top-150-saturday-cable-originals-network-finals-5-16-2020.html Oddly enough, we now get Paranoia Agent reported on. Go figure!

Where is your information that the budget is "slashed?" I haven't seen that indicated anywhere! All I HAVE seen is an acknowledgment that Toonami will have a more difficult time acquiring shows due to the pandemic.
