Yeah, I missed it this week. I was at a live music show, as I am somewhat wont to do on Saturday nights, but I usually follow along with Toonami on my smartphone. However, this DOES in effect limit me in terms of live-posting. Grade: "C-". That's just a LITTLE bit harsh, if you ask me! For what it's worth, I enjoyed this episode It was funny how when Mariella came back, Fanzell was suddenly clothed! And it also occurs to me that what we're in right now is essentially the Black Clover version of the "Full Bring" arc from Bleach. Does anyone else agree??

Wow, you guys had me laughing! Give yourselves a hand! https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/jojo-bizarre-adventure-diamond-is-unbreakable/episode-21/.105586 Grade: "B+". If this guy is the real antagonist for this part, it will be interesting. Deadly/Killer Queen might be quite formidable, but I guess it's Shigekiyo who will feel the brunt of this new Stand first, next week! Thank God and DeMarco we don't have to wait 2 weeks, unlike the next episode of MegaloBox!

I guess I'm glad I finally ended up watching it on Tuesday this week since the wait won't be THAT bad for me! But I DID see bits and pieces Saturday night and still had no idea what was going on! https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/megalobox/episode-7/.131740 Grade: "B+". Wow, great review, but surprisingly low grade. Sure, almost no real boxing took place in the episode, but that betrayal-laced punch in the stomach sure hit us hard!

Sometimes a step back follows several steps forward. I'm afraid this is one of those times: http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-top-150-saturday-cable-originals-network-finals-2-2-2019.html Well, at least Mob Psycho 100 and Megalobox DID improve in total viewers AND key demos for their respective season and mid-season finales! (Yes, I'm calling this the Megalobox "mid-season finale" since it takes a break this week for the return of SAO!) Also, Dragon Ball Super may have decreased in total viewers, but it did increase in Adults 18-49 and 18-34, but Boruto dropped in all 3. It will be interesting to see where this places among the first 5 block averages for the year once all the numbers come in. I haven't done one of these in a while, but I think it's time: YEAR EVERYTHING ON TOONAMI WAS RELEASED IN JAPAN: Dragon Ball Super - 2017 Boruto - 2017 My Hero Academia - 2017 Sword Art Online: Alicization - 2018 [Megalobox - 2018] JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Diamond Is Unbreakable - 2016 Black Clover - 2018 Hunter x Hunter - 2014 Shippuden - 2011 Attack On Titan - 2018 Pop Team Epic - 2018 Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans - 2017 Damn, that is a FRESH block!! NINE of the shows from either last year or the year before! DBZ Kai was kind of the outlier and I'm glad it got put on the prime-time companion Dragon Ball Power Hour block!

So I don't think Boruto is based on a manga at all, so it can't technically have "filler", but though this episode is "filleresque", it was quite enjoyable: https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/boruto-naruto-next-generations/episode-16/.119064 Rating: "B+". Good show, even if main plot advancement = 0.

Momo is the unofficial mascot of chemical engineer MHA fans everywhere!! (Yes, I actually do have a bachelor's degree in chemical engineering, which is about as underused as Momo's power!) https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/my-hero-academia/episode-35/.121151 Grade: "B+". I think that's lowballing it a bit, but to be fair, the episode really only shined in the 2nd half. The 1st half stuff was clever but lackluster by comparison.

You oughta follow her on Twitter--she posts cute pics like this: And yes, I have seen her myself in person twice--in 2012 and 2015! Hell, I guess I'll just edit this post to post the link to the review of the final episode: https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/mob-psycho-100/episode-12/.106915 Grade: "A". Overall Season GPA: 3.6667 I agree with the review as a whole too! Really looking forward to Season 2's dub!

48 minutes...dragged out into 35 22-minute episodes lmfao! https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/dragon-ball-super/episode-96/.117979 Grade: "B"...as in BRING IT ON ALREADY!!

I've never noticed it. Another kick-ass trending night last week to close out the month of January! http://toonamifaithful.com/toonami-trending-rundown-for-january-26-27-2019/ United States Trends: #Toonami [#8] #MobPsycho100 [#7] #MegaloBox [#7] #JoJosBizarreAdventure [#7] Koichi (From JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure) [#8] Yukako (From JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure) [#17] #BlackClover [#9] #HunterXHunter [#4] #Shippuden [#6] And it hasn't been compiled yet, but it looks like the first Toonami block of February also did well!

I figured this out a while back. Makes perfect sense! I love when narrators aren't just "the voice of God", but an actual bit character in the show!

At least we've got one more week until the BIG "cut-off!"

Awwww, so sad. LATER!!

Well, looks like that's it! One more episode of Gundam to go for now--next week!

At some point, the title card played: #32 My Friend

Damn, Galan's dying words turned out to be soo true!!

Galan is SO GOING DOWN!!!

Hush needs to live up to his name on this one!

#11: Cursed Mansion Let's get SPOOKY!!!

One of the best moments of Season 3 indeed!! And Kenny was looking worse-for-wear, so here comes HIS decision!!

BOOOM!!!

Well, I think I'll just let Negan handle this one... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-lqTQfKyuE

No one drops truth bombs like Historia!!

#46: Ruler Of The Walls The "Big Ass Titan" cometh!!!

King Meruem is BACK! Pouf thinks he can bring out his former ant by killing the one person his human side cares about! Witness the carnage at 2:30 AM tonight! Only 20 episodes left!!

My bad, I meant 12:30. I'm in Central time and sometimes that messes with me. 11:30 MY time! Also, this has gotten really strange: http://toonamifaithful.com/toonami-trending-rundown-for-january-26-27-2019/ Read carefully. Notice something? According to his Unlocked chat, Kyle McCarley HASN'T EVEN BEEN ASKED to reprise his role as Mob yet! So somehow the 2nd season has gone from being a "simuldub" to having an indefinite delay...why?? It is possible that it could still replace Megalobox but that's ending only 6 weeks away! Is that even enough time??
