EPISODE 9: THE SPREADING MALICE BURN 'EM UP, SHINRA! 12:30 AM TOMORROW NIGHT (9/21-22) OP: "INFERNO" by Mrs. GREEN APPLE FULL SONG MUSIC VIDEO! ED: "Veil" by Keina Suda FULL SONG: ONLY TOONAMI!!!

Episode 8: Identity Crisis Last time you remember, gen:LOCK 1 just got their Holons a SWEET upgrade, but will it be enough to take on and capture Nemesis, which judging from this video, apparently ALSO got one? Let's get gen:LOCKed and loaded one last time...at least for now... 11:30 PM tomorrow night (9/21)--ONLY TOONAMI!!

EPISODE 5: STONE WORLD - THE BEGINNING Midnight tomorrow night (9/21-22) Following the Season (Series?) Finale of gen:LOCK! OP: "Good Morning World" by Burnout Syndromes FULL SONG MUSIC VIDEO: ED: "Life" by Rude-alpha Get excited!! ONLY TOONAMI!!!

That deal was made by [as], not by Toonami, apparently. I mean, they pretty much were one and the same, but I'm afraid that's all I've got. Interestingly enough, Lupin the 3rd Part 4 aired for only 24 episodes in Japan, and had 2 OVAs, both of which we got!

More numbers, pendejos: https://programminginsider.com/saturday-final-ratings-48-hours-on-cbs-returns-with-its-most-watched-edition-in-six-months/ 9/14/19 - Adults 18-49 Show Viewers Retention DBZ Kai 115,000 DBS (R) 141,000 122.61% TOONAMI DBS (P) 431,000 105.12% Gen:LOCK 246,000 57.08% Dr. Stone 249,000 101.22% FireForce 227,000 91.16% FoodWars! 209,000 92.07% B.

At least 18-49s didn't suffer that much, but still the Power Hour was definitely a loser to the later shows in Toonami this week, and that's probably how it should be. And oh yeah, DBS beat Family Guy in all known demographics! Too bad the former is down to only 3 episodes! In other, sad news, Ric Ocasek of The Cars died over the weekend. Those "Good Times Roll" no more.

Get excited--I've got more numbers!!! http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-top-150-saturday-cable-originals-network-finals-9-14-2019.html "Adult Swim’s line-up performed as follows: DRAGON BALL at 0.33 and 0.09/314K & 0.11/270K compared to 0.38 and 0.13/331K & 0.13/287K, GEN LOCK down 0.06 to 0.19, DR STONE down 0.02 to 0.19, FIRE FORCE down 0.01 to 0.18, FOOD WARS down 0.01 to 0.16, BLACK CLOVER up 0.01 to 0.15/294K, BORUTO steady at 0.14, NARUTO up 0.03 to 0.15/292K, MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM up 0.03 to 0.15, LUPIN THE 3RD up 0.02 to 0.13, and MY HERO ACADEMIA up 0.02 to 0.13/237K." And so now that we know all the shows' total viewers, I can post this: 9/14/2019 - Total Viewers Show Viewers Retention DBZ Kai 314,000 DBS (R) 270,000 85.99% TOONAMI DBS (P) 687,000 Gen:LOCK 396,000 57.64% Dr. Stone 409,000 103.28% FireForce 349,000 85.33% FoodWars! 318,000 91.12% B.

As for 18-49, the shows' average was lower, but the base was higher. All of the 2nd half shows with the exception of Boruto did better than last week, and none were under 0.13. That's pretty good!

I guess some like it hot, but DAMN!!!

Well, looks like the only way there will ever be a Season 2 is if Rooster Teeth and Toonami have been stealthily keeping its existence under wraps and the bulk of the work was done during the first 6-7 months of 2019 before the explosive diarrhea (as opposed to just plain ol' solid shit) hit the fan, needing only some post-production editing. But we better hope it has a conclusive ending if so, because there will NOT be a Season 3, unless an absolute miracle happens.

It's Tuesday afternoon, and we've got a ratings update: http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-top-150-saturday-cable-originals-network-finals-9-14-2019.html Lupin's back in the Top 50, and most shows actually did a tick or two better, but Dragon Ball Super was down 0.05. Stronger Football competition, I guess? Dr. Stone beat gen:LOCK, and Gundam: The Origin (Red Comet) edged out Boruto. Tell me again which mecha show is underperforming? Hopefully the 11:30 timeslot's next occupant won't be as much of a stinker as the last 2 have been.

https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/boruto-naruto-next-generations/episode-48/.128678 Grade: "B-". This one didn't interest me much; maybe I'll give it a better chance later this week!

Nice touch from Ian and the line director there!!! Maybe it will be used in a future speech? https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/black-clover/episode-87/.147824 Rating: 3☆. Damn right I'm looking forward to the future! At this point only Boruto and Dragon Ball Super remain in my caffeine-fueled late night survey, and I'm going to the Boruto thread now...

If they're not an irregular length, I'd say they have a chance. Just depends on what Sentai wanted to do with their contract. In general, that stuff is restricted so people have an incentive to watch the home video DVD/BD release. But it's kinda hypocritical that it never seems to end up on PAID STREAMING services, meaning they are forever somewhat inferior to physical media. For example, I've bootlegged the sub of Kill la Kill's 25th episode OVA, but I STILL haven't seen it dubbed! Wait, he has to use the shitty vegetables that butt-munch provided!? But the short-haired dude DOES have a point with Megumi needing to redeem herself! https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/food-wars-shokugeki-no-soma/episode-11/.89211 Grade: "A-". Kojiro's dish was a showstopper, inducing Sailor Moon-esque transformations in the judges, but what about Megumi and Soma's? I guess we'll find out next week in the first cour(se) finale? P.S.: This show always makes me stupid hungry, even if I'm watching ludicrously late at night!

"You STILL adore me!!!" -- Sorry, Rekka, that isn't how it works! Once you're revealed to be a complete asshole who lights people on fire out of ambition, people have the right to stop adoring you. Shinra saves the day!!! And Rekka got "Rekk'd!" https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/fire-force/episode-8/.150591 Rating: 3⭐. Hopefully next week turns up the heat!

https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/dr-stone/episode-4/.149490 Rating: 4.5⭐. Yeah, how the hell is Senku gonna get out of this one!?

https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/lupin-the-third-part-5/episode-14/.134114 Grade: "A". I am actually shocked that the somewhat predictable trope of Lupin's near death cliffhangers didn't give this a minus, but then again, maybe it would have been an "A+" otherwise, and that still knocked it down a peg?

Maybe she'll do more in Season 4?

End of Season 2, right?

Cousin It, if It could grow...uhh...its hair at will!

If Mineta knew who the hell Camie really was, he might not have a boner for her... ...but then again, it IS Mineta, so I guess he still might...

C'mon, y'all--it's PINNED now!!! Episode #57 (Season 3, Episode 19): Rescue Exercises LMAO Mineta!

Shit, Lupin got shot again! This time with an arrow...and by DOLMA!!!

You mean "without" Ami, right?

It all comes together! 3D printing masks! This is definitely a high-tech Lupin show!

Damn, couldn't even finish before Gundam!? Jigen getting scolded by the robot for lighting up was hilarious!

Damn, couldn't even get to Page 2 tonight? What the hell!?!
