Episode 20: "The Age of Energy" Hey, we DO have a topical promo this week!! SCIENCE wins the war, right?? 11:30 PM Tomorrow night (1/25) ONLY TOONAMI!!

Episode #73 (Season 4, Episode 10): Temp Squad Toga's back and causing trouble!! 11 PM Tomorrow night (1/25) Only Toonami!!! [plus ultra]

Oops, jumped da gun!

Hey, I enjoyed the Beerus arc, even if it was just a slightly crappier version of Battle of Gods on a boat! But the Future Trunks arc was by far the best!

Sadly, not in 18-49 and 18-34. Those DBZ Kai numbers are quite low. I'm glad they at least got to finish the Frieza arc before it got pulled, but man, that DBS rerun went nowhere. Oh well, maybe if Home Movies bombs on weeknights, DBS will get another chance there from the beginning later this year like in 2018. I think it's a good decision on [as]'s part to replace those reruns with reruns of MHA Season 4, but it will be interesting to see what they do, especially with the 8:30 timeslot, once it catches up to the premieres. If you have no clue what I'm talking about, there's a tweet for that:

Well, there goes my Boruto theory. Oh please oh please, Toonami, don't let it replace Dr. Stone on 2/29! That would be the biggest "F YOU" to everyone who wants a 2020 show on Toonami! Still, I'm glad JoJo's moving up to 2 AM. Finally Fighting Gold will have a fighting chance! Notice that starting on that day, every hour will have a dedicated theme: Hour 1: Hottest new shows from FUNimation hour! Hour 2: Aniplex monster-battling hour! Hour 3: Shonens that go on and on and on... Hour 4: The Viz supernatural Power Hour Hour 5: Reruns involving people as food Of course this lineup will only persist for 3 weeks before the 11:30 timeslot gets replaced by...something. And I Wonder what [as] will be running at 4 AM? PRIMAL reruns perhaps? I would be surprised, though not shocked, to see Dragon Ball reruns end up in that hour at some point. One other wild card is that a month later on 3/7, [as] must lose an hour of programming due to DST, but what will be sacrificed? Will it be Toonami's reruns for one week only, or will it be (much more likely) the 4 AM hour?

Lurkers gonna lurk!

More numbers have come in from PI/Son Of The Bronx for the entire night on [as], and we now know how the final DBZ Power Hour for the foreseeable future did, as well as all of Toonami in total viewers and Adults 18-49: Dragon Ball Z Kai (repeat) (ADSM, 8:00 PM, 30 min.) • 0.303 million viewers (#97) • 0.16 HH (#95) • 0.10 A18-49 (#83) • 0.08 A18-34 (#63) • 0.09 A25-54 (#98) • 0.07 A55+ Dragon Ball Super (repeat) (ADSM, 8:30 PM, 30 min.) • 0.327 million viewers (#91) • 0.18 HH (#94) • 0.13 A18-49 (#52) • 0.11 A18-34 (#41) • 0.12 A25-54 (#85) • 0.06 A55+ Bob’s Burgers (repeat) (ADSM, 9:00 PM, 30 min.) • 0.443 million viewers (#72) • 0.26 HH (#73) • 0.19 A18-49 (#36) • 0.14 A18-34 (#25) • 0.20 A25-54 (#46) • 0.10 A55+ Bob’s Burgers (repeat) (ADSM, 9:30 PM, 30 min.) • 0.604 million viewers (#51) • 0.38 HH (#49) • 0.29 A18-49 (#9) • 0.22 A18-34 (#8) • 0.30 A25-54 (#25) • 0.12 A55+ Family Guy (repeat) (ADSM, 10:00 PM, 30 min.) • 0.656 million viewers (#45) • 0.42 HH (#46) • 0.31 A18-49 (#7) • 0.30 A18-34 (#4) • 0.32 A25-54 (#21) • 0.10 A55+ Family Guy (repeat) (ADSM, 10:30 PM, 30 min.) • 0.786 million viewers (#35) • 0.48 HH (#36) • 0.37 A18-49 (#6) • 0.36 A18-34 (#3) • 0.36 A25-54 (#11) • 0.13 A55+ Read more: https://programminginsider.com/saturday-final-ratings-stolen-by-my-mother-the-kamiyah-mobley-story-is-lifetimes-top-telecast-among-total-viewers-in-12-months/ It is clear from this new information that the gap between the 2nd FG and MHA is closing! But recall that MHA got a 0.31 in Adults 18-34. That means the flagship show of Toonami actually retained 86% of Adult Swim's classic target demographic! And as for the rest of Toonami: 1/18/2020 - Total Viewers Show Viewers Retention DBZ Kai 303,000 DBS (R) 327,000 107.92% TOONAMI MHAS4 588,000 74.81% Dr. Stone 436,000 74.15% SAOAWOU 412,000 94.50% FireForce 413,000 100.24% FoodWars! 408,000 98.79% D.

Nothing under 200K total viewers, and all premieres above 200K adults 18-49! Dr. Stone is showing considerable weakness at 11:30, though. That may mean that the second season may be back at midnight or perhaps even later. Even so, let's just hope Toonami can keep the momentum going! The first few shows might even be up against the Trump Impeachment Trial this weekend!

Week 3 numbers are in, and MHA soars to new heights not seen since last year: http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-top-150-saturday-cable-originals-network-finals-1-18-2020.html A top 10 berth with 0.29 in 18-49 for My Hero Academia is remarkable, but the #5 ranking and 0.31 in 18-34 is even better! Too bad Dr. Stone dropped the ball, but the next 3 shows gained on each other big-time!! And Food Wars! and Demon Slayer actually bested MHA in Men 18-49!

5 Pages!!! That's pretty impressive!! In all seriousness, the thing I'm looking most forward to in this arc is probably the promise of some of the unique personalities of the Integrity Knights who were played off as obstacles in the first season of Alicization fighting on the "side of right" in this arc! FULL STEAM AHEAD TO THE NEXT EPISODE!!!

Yeah, and really, this was kind of one of the issues with the pacing of this episode--you probably could have joined this episode and last into one episode. Up next is Episode #11: "Idol" - Struggle For Trost, Part 7 -

And that's all for tonight!

PYXIS TO THE RESCUE!!!

Crap, I fell asleep! Episode #10: Response - Struggle For Trost, Part 6 -

It's definitely a stretch that Krone in the manga was inspired by racist caricatures of Black people, but that might have been the case. She does feel more like a Boondocks character in the anime though.

Yep. And now this transmission, and the mysterious Tefari! Demon HQ!!!

She's NUTS!!!

Episode #3: 181045

I guess this is a little different from Bleach which just made some shit up to focus on for a few months...

If this IS filler, this is surprisingly a good episode!

Are we in filler hell? I honestly can't tell. This episode does seem consistent with the rest of the 4th ninja arc so far...

The bi-plane is supposed to be called "Aerosmith;" what the hell are they even calling it in this version!? https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/jojo-bizarre-adventure-golden-wind/episode-10/.140566 Grade: "B+". This has been a "mediocre, but fuck you; I've actually been enjoying it" night of Toonami, I guess? Oh well; on to SHIPPUDEN!

It's a RAT RACE tonight on TOONAMI!!!

He's riding a rat!
