Somewhere, at some point, someone in some show needs to use the line "die, and I'll re-animate your corpse and then kill you!" THAT would be a good one!

Assassination Classroom Overlord Season 1 Yu-Yu Hakusho Noragami Seraph of the End: Vampire Reign Cowboy Bebop High School DxD D.Gray-man A Certain Scientific Railgun Seasons 1-2 Nichijou - My Ordinary Life STEINS;GATE Lord Marksman and Vanadis Samurai Champloo PSYCHO-PASS Blood Blockade Battlefront Season 1 Hyou-ka Snow White with the Red Hair Grimgar of Fantasy and Ash Claymore Hetalia Note also: Adult Swim/Toonami have already lost the rights to Samurai Champloo (again), but they are still streaming Cowboy Bebop.

FINALLY watched the first 5 episodes, thinking they were going to be pulled from VRV, and I AM HOOKED!!!! Fortunately FUNimation's channel is NOT disappearing completely from VRV or is getting folded into Crunchyroll's, which means we can still see this season's Simuldub series without paying an extra $5.99 a month. There is a partial list of the shows that will be pulled from VRV tomorrow that I'm going to post in its own thread soon...

Just watched the first 5 episodes on VRV, perhaps for the last day I would be able to do so. I've gotta say this show is PERFECT for Toonami, and it's a travesty if it doesn't show up on the Better Cartoon Show eventually!

Wouldn't they have to for the male teachers? But they might be a little too high for a shrimp like Mob to use... Note: this review is for the first 2 episodes, but it has some NIIIIIIICE backstory on the designers... https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/mob-psycho-100/episodes-1-2/.104470 Rating: "A". Yes, I agree. This show is a great, if a little late, addition to Toonami. But then again, we have Season 2 coming up, and there is certainly great potential for that to be more "timely."

I think it's actually 45. But still, nope. That's enough time to find another "hit." Of course, they could always just double up Super and rerun it...

Well, what do you know? https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/dragon-ball-super/episode-86/.114896 Rating: "A+"! Yeah, this was certainly an episode designed to excite fans of the original!

People like ghost ships and stories involving giant crabs, I guess?

And of course Dragon Ball Super would go on to win the night in both 18-49 and 18-34, but the movie won in terms of total viewers. DBZ Kai did score the lowest number we've seen in Toonami primetime, a 0.13, estimated at a mere 88K adults 18-34, but that's what happens when you're a sacrificial lamb to Alabama at LSU. Up next in the lead-in movie slot is Alvin & The Chipmunks 3: The Road Chip. This movie didn't do impressively when it premiered a month ago, so I don't expect much from it as a rerun.

Oh, I stand corrected. This was clearly talking about the sabotage...

This must be related to AOT Junior High?? Well, I FINALLY watched the episode all the way through, and I feel it was rated a little too low by ANN: https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/attack-on-titan/episode-48/.137854 Rating: "B". Interestingly enough none of y'all nor this review even mentioned the most interesting plot point of the 2nd half of this episode, well, most interesting to me anyway: that Keith actually sabotaged Eren's chances of getting into the Scouts by snapping the clamp for his ODM gear himself, and only repaired it when it was discovered. We previously only knew Keith as the hard-ass "drill sergeant" type back in Episode 3 of Season 1, so this backstory was welcome. I'd have gone with "A-", but that's just me.

Mob improved, but backstory-heavy AOT took a pretty big hit: http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-top-150-saturday-cable-originals-network-finals-11-3-2018.html The only eligible Toonami show that didn't make the Top 50 is JoJo, coming in at #55 with an even 300K and a 0.12.

Bye bye, Pop Team Epic; see ya back on Toonami TV at 2:30--now its predecessor on the block, FLCL Alternative, has its streaming run.

Maybe Toonami will see fit to replace Hunter x Hunter with a rerun of that? It aired on Syfy, though not in HD... Also, I've been watching MHA first thing on Sundays these days, since during College Football season it seems to be the toughest show to catch, and I've gotta say the tournament finale felt pretty anticlimactic, though Bakugo's "sore winner" antics were pretty damn hilarious! https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/my-hero-academia/episode-25/.117632 Rating: "A-". Yeah, I guess I agree. There was a LOT going on in this episode, and there are a few menacing figures on the periphery that might play a role soon...

Yes. If you wanted to go back and see a bunch of Black Clover discussions, they would be helpful.

Really? Well that’s a let down. Marathoning the show only to restart the season in the same slot for two more weeks before FLCLA finishes its rerun so it can move in and make way for Megalo Box. As bleh as three weeks of Titan reruns at midnight would be it’s preferable to a marathon that nukes the rest of the premieres for a week. Good to see they've actually scheduled the whole month of November even if that's the case. But AOT's rerun getting its first 2 episodes at Midnight is just freaking lazy even if there's really nowhere for it to go until Lupin ends, which is why I feel they MIGHT double up on Lupin's finale and give PTE the night off (not like it has any continuity to destroy) on December 1 right before AOT moves down to the back end with #40 (303) on December 8th. But in that case, why does it have to be Season 3? It will be a little while until we get the 2nd half, so I'd keep Titan on the block and go back to the start of Season 2!

She's the queen we need, but not the queen we deserve... [that would probably be Pipimi…]

I was wondering how they were gonna handle the fact that AOT Season 3 Part 1 ends on Nov. 10 and it would be pretentious to debut the first episode of a new show on Nov. 17 and not continue until Dec. 1, but I GUESS nuking the whole lineup on Nov. 17 and not returning to it until Dec. 1 is a decent option I hadn't considered! That said, there's no doubt in my mind that there will also be a marathon on Nov. 24, and with that SSB Goku balloon in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade this year, I DARE Toonami to choose anything but Dragon Ball Super...

But has the OVA aired on Toonami? No?? Hence, SPOILER!!!

Please use a tag for this thread!
