Morel, played by Richard Epcar, has an ability called "Deep Purple" freakishly similar to Hermit Purple by Joseph, ALSO played by Richard Epcar! Morel feels kinda like a love letter to Joseph Joestar!

I was gonna watch the Stardust Crusaders 90s OVAs at some point between the end of this series and the beginning of DIU, but since we're rolling right into DIU I guess unless it's a marathon during that week it won't be possible. Somehow in this case, the older stuff may actually have been better: https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/jojo-bizarre-adventure-stardust-crusaders-egypt-arc/episode-21/.88742 ANN gave this episode a "B". I'm just GLAD we're finally to DIO, even if he's now saying "MudaMudaMuda," I guess as a counterweight to Jotaro's "OraOraOra!"

Nah, this is really the only one. All Might showing up was a "reverse cliffhanger".

Kinda hard to hold on for one more day once you run into DIO!

Different part of "Last Train Home," I guess!

I believe he's even more of a troll now than he was in Part 1!

Good grief, he's on a rampage!

And how would you know what that feels like, Joseph? Oh yeah, Part 2...

FINALLY, THE SHOWDOWN BEGINS!!!

This episode got a "B": https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/pop-team-epic/episode-4/.127046

I'm recording all the episodes of this show. One day when I'm drunk I'll marathon 'em!

"I can't believe you said that crap! You suck! Your new name is King Moron!!!" KUDOS, Funi, Kudos!

LET'S POP TOGETHER!!!

And POPUKO was the one doping!?

Yep, that's definitely Jad! And Popuko is NEGAN!

The Pillows are really rockin' now!

Right!

LITTLE BUSTERS LIVE!!!!! <3

Ok, so Episode 2 "Freebie Honey" may be on Toonami, but why don't we talk about this PILLOWS LIVESTREAM CONCERT INSTEAD!? But I'll mention in passing that I feel this episode is more full of references to the original series than any other.

Of course we are! Toonami already announced they're getting all 3 seasons, which means we'll actually be watching Season 3 not too long after its debut, like maybe 10 months or so! I'm glad y'all enjoyed the episode! Our trusty ANN reviewer wasn't all that smitten with it though. https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/my-hero-academia/episode-11/.103142 Just a "B"? I respectfully disagree. Oh well, on to FLCL Progressive, then Pop Team Epic!

At least it was kind of a "return cliffhanger" in which the good guy shows up before the end. I don't mind this type! ALL MIGHT GON' THROW DOWN NEXT WEEK, Y'ALL!!!

HOLY FREAKING SUPERCRAP, ALL MIGHT IS HERE!!! Too many hands guy, YOU'RE GOING DOWN!!!

Deku the hero!

HE COPPED A FEEL ON FROG GIRL TSU!!!

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THE PILLOWS! And meanwhile, this happened on Toonami:
