Why does/did Leech remind me of Gluttony?

I believe you'll get it! Is Feitan Vic? Or is it Rabid Dog?

Yeah, but I'll take Hunter x Hunter to round out the nightmare 90, especially now that the Shadow Beasts have revealed themselves!

Timely Beauty and the Beast reference there!

8.5 minutes to be exact! No, that's the album version!

Yeah, seems that way. Trying to take JoJo with him!

How about the 2nd verse of Roundabout for Episode 22!

I'm not even drinking tonight. I'm running a slight fever so I don't feel like I can! Wamuu is now a blind horse's ass!

Is he really stuck inside a horse? WELL, THAT BACKFIRED!

STOP! Hammertime!

Shouldn't it have started already? Oh right, Sand Whale bumps everything forward ridiculously!

Hate to burst your bubble, but that was six weeks ago!! Time for some mojo with Jojo at the...arena!

Now streaming for the next 37 hours or so, the lineup from 2/25/17: 1. Dragonball Super #8 - Goku Makes an Entrance! A Last Chance from Lord Beerus!? - TV-PGV 2. Dragonball Z Kai #106 - Who is the World's Greatest? The Tournament Preliminaries Begin! - TV-PGLV 3. JoJo's Bizarre Adventure #18 - Von Stroheim's Revenge - TV-MAV 4. Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn RE:0096 #8 - Laplace, Where it All Began - TV-PGL 5. Hunter x Hunter #40 - Nen Users Unite? - TV-14V 6. Naruto Shippuden #147 - The Rogue Ninja's Past - TV-PG 7. One Piece #381 - A New Crewmate! The Musician, Humming Brook - TV-PG 8. Ghost in the Shell: STAND ALONE COMPLEX #4 - INTERCEPTER - TV-14 [eight is great!]

I like that mature bloody edge is finally returning to the lineup! It's been something that's been sorely missing since the Phantom Blood Arc of JoJo ended. I dunno; that wasn't exactly super bloody either! Parasyte was probably the last really bloody show we've had on Toonami!

Don't get me wrong: I like Assy McGee and am in fact DVR'ing every episode. But I agree that this was a much better use of the timeslot and also a really nice surprise to see!

Adult Swim is actually showing the first 11 minutes of Toonami Pre-Flight from 3/17/17 ON AIR tonight during DVR Theater!!! This is REALLY cool!!! I believe this is the first time Pre-Flight has been on TV?? What an awesome 36th Birthday Present! Edit: it wasn't the first 11 minutes, but actually a carefully edited version of the 2-hour-ish streaming version down to 22 minutes of highlights. Think this could become a semi-regular thing for Toonami going forward? I it would be cool if, for instance, they tried a "Toonami Post-Flight" (not live, of course), at 3:30 AM Saturday Nights where they discuss the block that just aired. Then again, if this was a success in the ratings, something like this at 8:30 PM after DragonBall Super would seem to be academic to me (again, not live!)

Episode #12: A Private War We're halfway through, at 12 of 22, but the show has been jettisoned to 2. Shrug it off and finish the 4th OVA with Toonami! Stay up late for epic giant robot fighting after Hunter x Hunter -- I promise you won't regret it! 2 AM Tomorrow night (3/25)--ONLY TOONAMI!

I was watching it in my anime club last night, and I dunno, I just found it hokey as hell!

Right. 385 and 386 this weekend!

http://programminginsider.com/ratings/final-nationals/wednesday-final-nationals-world-baseball-classic-championship-delivers-time-best-mlb-network-non-playoff-audience/ Well, the Wednesday rerun dropped under a million but only 0.01 in 18-49. Once again it valleyed between American Dad and Bob's Burgers, but not by as much as last week!

Yeah, just judging by the ratings, I would think they wouldn't go right into Stardust, if at all, BUT I have heard rumblings on Twitter from some VAs that would indicate it's coming sooner rather than later.

1. Is Stardust Crusaders coming to Toonami directly after Battle Tendency, and 2. If so, will we get a new promo for it?

:::

Yeah, I really do believe Stardust Crusaders will do better myself, if that's what's going in that timeslot right after Battle Tendency! I also wonder if they recouped the cost of licensing for being able to play "Roundabout" for a year? Kinda fortuitous that it happened the year Yes gets inducted until the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame though, ain't it?? Anyway, back to Stardust, I'm sure they also licensed the American Classic Rock ED THAT part has if they got Stardust to directly follow BT! I just wonder if maybe this is somewhere else the costs of Season 7 of One Piece ended up going... I also forgot that DBZ KFC loses its dub premiere status very soon, ironically around the same time JoJo would gain it...or IS it?? Actually, if Stardust premieres on April 29th directly following BT, the first 3 episodes would NOT be dub premieres since they were part of that "test dub" that Crunchyroll streamed way back in July 2014. Coupled with the DVD/BD release of DBZ KFC, that means the only true dub premiere left on the schedule for those 3 weeks would be Hunter x Hunter. Good thing the conclusion of Samurai Jack opens the block those 3 weeks, especially the Grand Finale on May 13th! Assuming that Attack on Titan Season 2 replaces Jack at 11 PM on May 20th, that would mean a block with 3 dub premieres starts that day: AOTS2, JoJo: SC (w/ Episode 4), and Hunter x Hunter! Gundam IBO S2 would most likely join at some point for a 4th Dub Premiere. (I'm picking Tokyo Ghoul's FIRST season to air at 1 AM but then it and Gundam to swap).

Last chance to see the crazy antics of the Great Saiyaman begins on the stream this afternoon!! EDIT...OR maybe not. The stream did not advance, meaning it's still 1-5 at least until 8 PM tonight!
