At least we get to see their dubs this week! Damn, that JoJo episode is hilarious!!

I could see Space Dandy being replaced by 2014's Terror In Resonance too. But I REALLY hope they don't air Kids On The Slope, though that timeslot would also be perfect for it. Their Watanaboner knows no bounds now that they're not just limited to action shows. Mixing in a little suspense or drama into the block wouldn't hurt at that late hour!

Yeah, all they say is that's the schedule for the next 2 weeks. No reason to believe that it will be any different for the following 2 weeks either, but with Gundam IBO ending on 4/28 we can expect a new show on 5/5. You just barely beat me posting this snazzy version: *FLCL Season 1 replaces Countdown/Scavengers on 4/14. The stream is down right now, so no telling right now whether or not the past week's Champloo return on the stream was merely a flash in the pan or not. They may continue it with Episodes #11-#15 this week, and I hope they do, but it's clear that it's not replacing Bebop. Speaking of Champloo, I'm really hoping FLCL 1 pulls a Champloo and manages to hold DBZ Kai's ratings better than Black Clover. That show was unapologetically making JoJo and Gundam look like crap, and they deserve better. What's funny is 3 years ago FLCL and JoJo Egypt Arc back-to-back would have been a dream lineup; let's see if it can still have the magic touch 3 years later!

Heads up: the Ratings Report tomorrow is gonna be a hot mess! But since Toonami was a hot mess last week, you'd already expected that, right?? Here's my prediction for what we'll see from whom... CABLE ORIGINALS (ShowBuzzDaily; TVByTheNumbers): 10:30 Dragon Ball Super 11 PM DBZ Kai Final Chapters 11:30 Black Clover 12 AM FLCL Alternative 12:30 Mind Game 2:45 JoJos' Bizarre Adventure EVERYTHING ELSE (SBD Update; ProgrammingInsider): 3:15 Hunter x Hunter 3:45 Shippuden 4:15 Space Dandy 4:45 Cowboy Bebop 5:15 GITS 2nd Gig 5:45 Scavengers

FLCL S2 not only could, it SHOULD air reruns outside of Toonami! If you ask me, it will probably get a treatment similar to Samurai Jack, but maybe not that much oversaturation. I don't see it getting a weeknight rerun, for example, but I DO see it getting an 8 PM rerun the next week!

The fate of that timeslot, however, has been confirmed. It will hold FLCL S1 from April 14 through May 19, take a break (most likely) for the May 26th Memorial Day Weekend, then return to showing FLCL, this time with "Progressive" Season 2, on June 2. Meanwhile no clue what is happening to Black Clover. I assume it is continuing but simply moving its timeslot.

What the hell is going on!? I guess that corroborates the April 14th schedule. Guess a lot of shows are moving down. Either that, or Black Clover is falling all the way from 11:30 to 1:30? Also, gotta be a new show in May replacing Gundam IBO. EDIT: WAAAAAAAAAAIT A MINUTE... I actually believe Toonami is expanding again to accommodate FLCL. It only makes sense this time! I believe the plan is to re-air Season 1 at 11:30, then re-air it TWICE on Memorial Day weekend, with LOTS of exclusive sneak peeks of FLCL 2! Only way that happens is if Toonami runs for 6 hours so all 6 episodes can be shown TWICE (and it might be fun if subtitled the 2nd time). So that would give us: 10 PM DBS/DBZK Power Hour 11 PM Black Clover 11:30 4/7 Countdown/Scavengers; 4/14 FLCL S1 12 AM JJBA:SC 12:30 Gundam IBO; 5/5 New Show TBD 1 AM Hunter x Hunter 1:30 Shippuden 2 AM Space Dandy 2:30 Bebop x2 or TBD 3:30 GITS 2nd Gig Then again, it could stay as it is with Black Clover moving down, then expand to 10 PM on 5/28...

And apparently a woman after my own heart if you invoke THAT femme fatale! Well, except for the smoking part. I wasn't so keen on that from Integra! So tonight a Toonami promo aired for Countdown/Scavengers at 11:30 PM. Anyone know if that's legit, or just a silly April Fool's joke? It aired right before the hour-long "Bushworld" Aussie Rick & Morty stunt.

We got "Bushworld Adventures", which is like Badly Drawn Australian Rick & Morty!

What the hell is going on!? At about 9:57 PM tonight before the REALLY BIZARRE badly-drawn Rick & Morty hour stunt, [as] aired a Toonami bump that suggested Countdown and Scavengers will re-air this week at 11:30. What the hell was that? Was that just an April Fool's Day prank or was it for real?

Damn, we're like zombies at this point. I think I'm going to bed now. Good night everyone!

Which is Episode #20 of 2nd Gig, right?

So what episode are we up to??

So it IS GITS, 2nd Gig...

I was hoping maybe we might get Session XX, but I guess no such luck. I'm not gonna be able to go much longer...

Not Gundam IBO???

AND NOW INTRODUCING THE U.S. PREMIERE OF SPACE DANDY'S ORIGINAL ED!!!

Well, that was delightfully manic!

This thread just got gayer than the Bravo network circa 2004...

Hahaha!! They only noticed after the narrator told them! What I want to know is why didn't they make a schedule promo for April 7th?? Unless we have to stay up until like 5 AM or beyond to see it! I believe the shows cycling in will be Samurai Champloo and FLCL 1.

Nice that tonight we got the seminal movie, then the show which it inspired! But I daresay it's more Groundhog Day or Endless 8...

YES!!! AND WE MIGHT GET THE JAPANESE ED TOO!!!

In case you care: https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/black-clover/episode-16/.126818 TL,DR: Rating "C" Yeah, not too keen on this one.

Hey, you're right!!!

So what's the "(Da)ttebayo" count up to now?
