I'm pretty sure they will be. I'd be surprised if DBZ Kai cracks 1.2M/750K 18-49 this week! And likewise with 11:30 Family Guy; no way that beat 1.5M/0.8 18-49!

You don't know that. For all we know at this point, OP could have rebounded and beat Gundam. It's incredibly unlikely, but it HAS done better than 795K/445K 18-49 before in the past.

Well, this is quite disappointing! 11/19/2016 JoJo's Bizzare Adv. Adults 18-34 Rating - 0.52 Estimated 18-34 - 353,000 Adults 18-49 Rating - 0.42 Estimated 18-49 - 533,000 Total Viewers - 964,000 11/19/2016 Gundam IBO Adults 18-34 Rating - 0.42 Estimated 18-34 - 285,000 Adults 18-49 Rating - 0.35 Estimated 18-49 - 445,000 Total Viewers - 795,000 Both shows hit scary new lows, and missed the top 10 at #12 and #15 respectively, but to be fair, the competition WAS pretty scary. USC vs. UCLA dominated the football front at #5, and there was a huge boxing match on PPV, Kovalev vs. Ward, which BTW had about 60,000 tweets and in part enfeebled Toonami's social media presence: http://toonamifaithful.com/toonami-trending-rundown-for-november-19-20-2016/ Ironically, the decision to air a normal lineup on Thanksgiving weekend might lead to Toonami's highest-rated week in November, as I'm pretty sure neither boxing nor UFC will have a huge event that night, and football competition might be lighter despite rivalry week since it's spread out over 3 days! So let's just hope Intruder 3 finishes strong! JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Phantom Blood Arc and Gundam IBO S1 too, although to be fair those have a few more weeks to go!

Huh huh huh, "hard", huh huh huh huh... ;D

Drifters is pretty great, but even I no longer see the possibility of it coming to Toonami. The dub ironically uses too many subtitles!!

I know I've come out saying Toonami would do well to air more shows with strong female leads, but Keijo!!!!!!!! is the obvious exception. It may be rather Kill la Kill-ish in that it involves strong female leads and ridiculously over-the-top fanservice, but the similarities end there. I really don't believe ladies would take to Keijo!!!!!!!! like they did to Kill la Kill! Using the butt as a weapon is less hilarious when it's an actual requirement. (But ONLY just a little bit).

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! This week get your fill of a show Toonami hasn't touched since June: the broadcast dub Dimension W, aired on Toonami from 2/27/16 through 5/14/16! You can expect episodes 1-5 until Wednesday night at 6:30; then 6-10 should take over after Pre-Flight's first replay that evening (which starts at 6:30). And episodes 11 & 12 are also available on-demand so if you want you can finish the show in a week. So, spend Thanksgiving with a real turkey of a show, if you dare! ;D

Jan. 3rd and 10th are Tuesdays. The new shows replacing Kai and Gundam would both start on the 7th!

I don't see Double JoJo because it would start the Battle Tendencies arc with a 3 week gap before the next episode. Better to just conclude Phantom Blood in 2016 and start BT on 1/7/17. The most likely thing might actually be restoring Hunter × Hunter to 1 AM, Shippuden to 1:30, etc., and double Punchy to end the night, especially if Toonami gets 11:30 back on 1/7/17.

Except for JoJo marathon on NYE, I can't take any of that crap seriously!

Hey now, Gundam IBO is a political show, but this ain't the place to wax political without reference to Gundam. Please take it to another thread. That being said, Trump is kinda like Nobliss!

Baron Zeppeli = Led Zeppelin Overdrive = Bachman Turner Overdrive That's all for now.

"Gohan, you've got him backed into a corner! He's desperate! There's no telling what he might do! End this already!!" This from the guy who tossed him a Sensu Bean!!

Keeping this idea going, and while I'm rather late, you've still got quite a few play-throughs before they take it down and replace it with the weekly marathon for Thanksgiving week at 8 AM tomorrow morning! 1. Dragonball Z Kai #91 - Get Angry, Gohan! Unleash Your Hidden Power! - TV-PGLV 2. JoJo's Bizarre Adventure #2 - A Letter from the Past - TV-MAV 3. Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans #19 - The Gravity of Wishes - TV-PGLV 4. Hunter x Hunter #25 - Can't See If You're Blind - TV-14V 5. Naruto Shippuden #132 - In Attendance, The Six Paths of Pain - TV-14V 6. One Piece #366 - You're Going Down, Absalom!! Nami's Lightning Attack of Friendship!! - TV-14D 7. One Punch Man #2 - The Lone Cyborg - TV-14LV Enjoy!!

Right. I said both DBZ Kai and JoJo Phantom Blood will end on the 17th. But Gundam IBO will end on the 10th, and there's no way they'll start a new show on the 17th, or even Gundam IBO S2, so I'm calling CWCLV to get an encore that night at 1 AM.

Puking your guts out with horrific results is a theme for tonight, as I just watched Cell cough up 18 and power down on the west coast feed, while on the east coast, Speed-O-Sound Sonic coughed up his balls!

Here we go; the Sonic vs. Saitama battle!!

Well, the thing about this is that now JoJo will get 9 episodes to air in 2016, finishing the Phantom Blood Arc, and DBZ Kai proper will also end on the 17th. I now believe the New Year's Eve-il Marathon will be a JoJo Marathon of the first 9 episodes extended to 4:30 AM. So now Gundam IBO S1 ends December 10th, so now what on the 17th? I had originally thought Children Who Chase Lost Voices might get a midnight rerun on Christmas Eve, but I now believe its fate may actually be 1 AM on December 17th, as Hunter x Hunter, Shippuden, One Piece, and One-Punch Man all take a 3-week break. I'm calling either DBZ Kai or Hunter x Hunter marathon on Christmas Eve and JoJo Phantom Blood marathon on New Year's Eve-il! We have seen now that they have the capability to expand Toonami to 4:30 for a special event, and the Phantom Blood arc of JoJo would indeed fit the bill, but the question is: is this expansion to 4:30 AM permanent for 2017, and if so, what would a 9-show Toonami look like? Even with DBZ Kai and/or Gundam IBO getting more seasons, we've still got room for 2-3 new shows, and I believe one of them will be Mob Psycho 100!

OH HELL YEAH, Brook to the Rescue!!

Wow, Blackbeard is gonna become a warlord!?

Wow, the fog is clearing! Oars is SUCH a big oaf screw-up!

Would that be a "crow-job?" Anyway, awesome scene from tonight:

Holy crap, what do you know! I guessed it right!!!

Wow, he really stabbed him!!

Looks like we go back to present-day now!
