I didn't know there were fouls in boxing...except maybe the low blow...

I believe Toonami just completely cut the one from Round 5...

These episode titles are getting interesting!!

Ah yes, the "Song of Storms" paradox!

DAMN, killed by Goblins?? NOPE!

So this thing hasn't happened yet?? OH OH!!

Now THAT's interesting...

Man, this season penultimate episode was freaking DARK!!

That's Asuna's ass online! Will Kirito be able to chop down the Demon Tree with his sword skills? Find out tonight!

Apologies for the crappy quality...

OK, HERE WE FUCKIN' GO... Why HASN'T Madoka Magica been on Toonami yet!? I mean really, the asthetic is 100% Adult Swim Lots of bizarre animation together with odd plot happenings--that's [as] to a T! Ok, Aniplex can be a dick, but we got SAO back, so let's make it happen!!! [OK?]

Good job, yo! You did what the copyright people couldn't so yah!!!

Shit-pudd'n episode 238 dicksucktion... cuz y'all sum fukkin morons!!! So suck dis, yah??? [heh]

Next-to-last...

My Hero Academia Episode #38 (Season 2, Episode 25): ENCOUNTER The journey to hero legend continues at Midnight tomorrow night (2/23/19) ONLY TOONAMI!!

TENTEN, you say!? how bout 11-11!?

Not sure why Shippuden usually does so well after HxH, but same-day delayed viewing COULD be the reason...

You mean this WOULD be the first, if they happen to run AOT S3B and S1 in the same block. As things stand now, we don't know for sure that's what will happen. And yeah, that is quite preposterous. But they DID finally update the weeknight schedule so that it mentions Samurai Jack and The Boondocks tonight!!

In week 2, SAO seems to have found some of its old magic, despite the fact that the only real action in that episode was Kirito trying to chop down a tree... http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-top-150-saturday-cable-originals-network-finals-2-16-2019.html This means Dragon Ball Super is almost certainly back above 500K 18-49/300K 18-34, the first Toonami show to go over 300K 18-34 for a while! Meanwhile Boruto HAS been slightly higher in total viewers, but NOT in those key demos, and ditto for Megalobox and the current seasons of the other shows! It's hard to believe this is the first episode of DiU to have gotten a 0.2 in 18-49, but that's actually true! As is sometimes the case whenever ratings get delayed due to a holiday, the ProgrammingInsider report came out early this week: https://programminginsider.com/saturday-final-ratings-nba-all-star-saturday-night-on-tnt-rebounds-a-bit-from-last-year/ 2/16/19 - Total Viewers Show Viewers Retention DBZ Kai 360,000 DBS (R) 410,000 113.89% DBS (P) 822,000 Boruto 600,000 72.99% MHA 564,000 94.00% SAO3 513,000 90.96% MegaloBox 424,000 82.65% JoJo4 397,000 93.63% B.

Well, getting rid of the 4 AM hour did wonders for the block average, but I'm dying to know what the numbers were for Boondocks and Black Dynamite. The website hints that we may get to know those in an update...

But the Reigen OVA would be hilariously disruptive because it's at least as long as 2, maybe 3 episodes! How in the hell would Toonami even DO that!? Then again, they DID air that hour special of SAO 3 so I guess it's probable. I suppose it's best if Toonami gives their viewers the courtesy of airing the OVA if something in Season 2 doesn't make much sense without it... So, I guess that week it would just pre-empt whatever's in front of it. I guess no harm would be done in the long run if that was SAO, JoJo, Black Clover, or Hunter x Hunter...

Yeah, I get that. But this IS the network who advertised an interesting April Fool's Day and then did nothing. Even if it's only like 5%, that little swerve will always make me slightly suspicious.

DAMN RIGHT it was!! Now maybe if we're lucky, we'll get Gundam: The Origin on Toonami this summer/fall!

Well they're airing Boondocks at 1 AM these days--maybe AOT could follow that at 1:30? Though if you ask me the best Toonami show to attempt to pair with Boondocks is actually Megalobox, which I guess just makes its lack of topicals even more tragic because they finally have the perfect place to put them! But hey, at least it had the full-schedule promo, which is some ways is even BETTER!!

Oh right. I've got VRV. It's there.

ALRIGHT, LET'S FINISH THIS!!! 13. Begins pretty much the same as OVA #5. Except for a skirmish at the beginning, almost no action. Plus, we miss the lengthy recap for once. Grade: "C+" 14. Contains the clash of the 2 Unicorns, and a much longer recap than the previous episode. Grade: "B+" 15. Has the LAST long-form recap we will get until Episode 22, but since they didn't use the OVA #5 ending theme, it loses points for that. Grade: "B". 16. Very little action, but TENSE dialog. Feels kinda like a powder keg brewing. Grade: "C". 17. Contains pretty much all of the main action of Episode 6. It missed the 6th OVA ending theme, but... Grade: "B-". 18. This episode kicks off with a special OP, the 6th ending theme in all its glory! Plus, it explodes with the first dynamite action of OVA 7! Truly one of the best-presented episodes of Re:0096, and it's a shame it never got streamed on the Marathon Stream. Grade: "A+". 19. Contains Riddhe's deplorable actions before seeing the light, and the revelation of Laplace's Box. Not marred by any extremely jarring cliffhangers. Grade: "A-". 20. Sparse action except in flashbacks, but one of the most important episodes of the edit. Grade: "B+". 21. The major duel between Banager and Full Frontal, with a major assist from Riddhe, and the mansion pretty much just gets TRASHED! Grade: "A-". 22. The final episode kicks off with not one but TWO recap sequences, though the first one, with a different, sarcastic, female narrator, is quite comical for a serious franchise like Gundam. But they decided to end Re:0096 on a high note by using OVA #7's ED: "Star Ring Child" Grade: "A". AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST... GUNDAM UNICORN EPISODE 23: GUNDAM NARRATIVE PART 1!!! NO, SERIOUSLY!!!! [enjoy the movie...]
