  1. #12 - "The Shoals" In this episode, which I think was one of the best of the first half of the series, a second skirmish between Tekkadan and The Brewers is brewing, and the setting for the battle between two factions that consider themselves human debris? A field of space debris, of course! Here are a few of its most stunning scenes!
  2. Now streaming is "#11: Human Debris!" This one starts out with an awesome battle between Tekkadan and The Brewers, and Kudal steals Dio's line! Believe me, he's just as insane!
  3. RAISE YOUR FLAGS!!! If you want to re-live last year's seminal return to U.S. TV of the Gundam franchise for the first time in 4 years, this week, the first week of 2017 (1/2-1/6/17), is your chance! Episodes 11-15 will play from now through Wednesday at 6:30 PM (with Pre-Flight interspersed), most likely followed by 16-20 from Wednesday about 7:10 PM through Friday at 6:30 PM. And if you would like to watch 21-25, they should be streaming free as well individually, with 25 as part of the upcoming weekend's Toonami stream, so get your Gundam on in preparation for the Toonami debut of Gundam Unicorn this Saturday night at 1 AM!
  4. Well at one point in 2014 you mentioned that Hellsing Ultimate was the best thing on Adult Swim at the time. And yes, you were also pining for JoJo to end up SOMEWHERE on TV to boot. I'm not sure what in the hell possessed me to believe that it would pair well with Archer on FX; it would not so far! But then again, I've heard the "prequel" Part 1 is not really indicative of the series as a whole, despite the fact that I enjoyed zombie-creating vampires' return to Toonami for the first time since Hellsing.
  5. Most, maybe, but not all. The most famous one "You thought it would be JoJo, but it was I, Dio!" happened in Episode 1, for crying out loud! Yes, that night was good and quite hope-inspiring. Hopefully DBZ Kai FC and Gundam Unicorn will boost JoJo Part 2's return Saturday night!
  6. I gotta admit this is pretty annoying, to the point where I'm actually tempted to make a thread where we attempt to guess what Jman's favorite shows might be.
  7. Assuming no pre-emptions, JJBA Part 2 (Battle Tendency) has 16 more weeks left, which means that it will end on 4/22/17, which means that there is potentially a free slot on 4/29/17. What do you think Toonami will fill that slot with? Just keep going with JJBA Part 3? SimulDub of Attack on Titan Season 2? How about Lupin III Part 4? Or maybe something else? (comment below) Edit: I thought JJBA S1 was 25 episodes; turns out it's actually 26. So I've edited the dates above; my bad! http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=14445 Also, methinks Toonami's not going to have a featurette this week since FOUR shows will be debuting new OPs: DB Super; DBZ Kai FC; JoJo; AND Gundam Unicorn!!
  8. Well, it IS starting now!
  9. Alright, I'm reasonably bored, so I'll give this a try, and of course I'm sticking to new shows added in the Adult Swim era (no [as] deadhorses). Also, in general, my tastes are very mature. TOP 10: #10 Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans #9 InuYasha: The Final Act #8 Attack On Titan #7 JoJo's Bizarre Adventure #6 Parasyte -the maxim- #5 KILL la KILL #4 One-Punch Man #3 Gurren Lagann #2 Black Lagoon #1 Hellsing Ultimate And now, the bottom 5: #5 OG Naruto #4 Star Wars: The Clone Wars #3 Beware The Batman #2 King Star King #1 Tenchi Muyo! GXP
  10. I actually hope Toonami spends a fraction of their 2017 budget to hire a VA (Hell, they could just have Dana Swanson do it...) and premiere the whole video with a DUBBED intro instead! Hey look, it's my first crackpot theory of 2017!!
  11. The tales of those exploits will have to be saved for another time..." LIKE NEXT WEEK AT MIDNIGHT! GET READY FOR DBZ: KFC!!
  12. Speaking of this, they are REALLY spamming the hell out of that promo tonight!
  13. One Piece is now streaming. For a giant red zombie demon, Oars can roll with the best of them!! And up next is a One-Punch Man in which Saitama devises a clever solution to a missing ingredient! :420: It's almost game time, so LATER!
  14. Girl in Gundam: "It's useless. Useless!" Dio: "Hey, that's my line!" Still skipping Hunter x Hunter and going right to Shippuden, an episode in which Zetsu tries to be a 2-faced Speedwagon and fails miserably while Itachi and Sasuke attempt to out-brood each other!
  15. Meant to post during DBZ Kai and JoJo, but the site was down. If you miss DBZ Kai on the stream, the same episode, in which Vegeta is the unsung hero who distracts Cell, will be on again tonight at about 2 AM ET. And the episode of JoJo which just played was on TV last week at about 1:15 AM in which JoJo finally gets the drop on Tarukus, but only after Zeppeli makes the ultimate sacrifice. But now we've got the pentultimate episode of Gundam IBO streaming, with great moments such as this: Bang.
  16. This week on Pre-Flight: Jason & Gill talk their favorite Toonami moments from 2016!
  17. In this thread we discuss the Toonami presentation of Shelter and the DBZ Kai marathon to ring in 2017!
  18. A new weekend is upon us, simultaneously the last weekend of 2016 and the first weekend of 2017! For those who watch the Stream and can't see Toonami on TV, here's what you can expect as the Gohan/Cell fight reaches its thrilling conclusion, Zeppeli accepts his fate and JoJo reaps the benefits, Gundam IBO heats up both literally and figuratively, we learn more about the mysterious Nen art in Hunter x Hunter, the confrontation between Sasuke and Itachi approaches its thrilling conclusion, Oars meets his match, and a terrifying new menace lurks inside City Z! It's the block that aired on 12/3/16, finally streaming for your viewing pleasure!! 1. Dragonball Z Kai #96 - Combine Your Strength! The Final Kamehame-ha! - TV-PGLV 2. JoJo's Bizarre Adventure #7 - Sorrowful Successor - TV-MAV 3. Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans #24 - A Future Reward - TV-14LV 4. Hunter x Hunter #30 - Fierce and Ferocious - TV-14V -- or not. This week, THERE IS NO 4!! 5. Naruto Shippuden #137 - Amaterasu! - TV-14V 6. One Piece #371 - The Straw Hat Crew Gets Wiped Out! The Shadow-Shadow's Powers in Full Swing! - TV-PGL 7. One Punch Man #6 - The Terrifying City - TV-14LV I'll probably talk more about the episodes and post gifs tomorrow! Update: the stream is SKIPPING Hunter x Hunter! I don't know why that's happening, but this is the first time the stream has outright skipped an episode of the weekend Toonami rebroadcast since it did it with an episode of Parasyte sometime in early '16! Of course, that week it was actually corrected when the stream came back for Friday/Saturday after the week. I doubt it will be the case this time. UPDATE 2: They're skipping H×H differently from how they skipped Parasyte. The skipped episode of Parasyte still had its bumpers stream, but NOT H×H this weekend! What could this mean?
  19. Only one hour left to get your ghost on with 2 or 3 episodes of 16-20! But as the show returns to Toonami on-air in February, I won't be "discussing" these episodes.
  20. Huh, really? No mention of JoJo at 12:30? That's kinda weird. Especially since if they had found something else to air at 1 AM on 12/17/16, they could have billed it as "JoJo: Battle Tendency Arc!" But I'm guessing that might be just an edited-for-time version and not the "full" promo. They've done that before. But as is, it comes back with the 2nd episode of Part 2 (11), so maybe it's better to not mention it. Just as long as it and the other 4 shows at least get clips from their shows. Maybe they won't be in the 30-second edit, but maybe a different 1-minute cut will sneak peek on Pre-Flight tonight? Edit: nope. The promo aired on Pre-Flight just as it has on regular [as]. It is indeed a "New Shows Only" promo.
  21. I wouldn't exactly say that, but even with this Christmas Eve low, December 2016 actually did/is doing better than November 2016. Whether or not the month is over is a matter of perception, since the DBZ Kai marathon won't technically start until midnight on 1/1/17. I am still wont to count it as part of December 2016 though.
