Well... https://www.spoilertv.com/2023/09/tv-ratings-for-saturday-23rd-september.html?m=1 With a 2-week average of 198K leading into the finale of FLCL: Grunge, last week’s episode was just slightly higher at 199K, making the mini-series average 198,333. On to Shoegaze!! The rest of the lineup did pretty decent too, as both One Pieces and the 1:30 Naruto Shippuden made the Top 50.

October 21-November 11th then, I guess? That would seem to make sense since you could just marathon the whole thing November 18th.

Maybe it will even be ready by November? We can only hope... Though IF we have a little more time to work with in November, we COULD see Toonami airing the entire first half of the season again, starting in the wee hours of Toonami on Nov. 4th, then airing 1-2 episodes a night at the end Nov. 11 & 18 before blowing it out with a marathon of the rest of the season Nov. 25, and premiering the 2nd half Dec. 2! After all, they DID do something similar with MHA last year. But if I had my choice between that and a rerun for AOTFC Part 1, I'd take that!

Looks about as violent as Hellsing Ultimate was from this awesome trailer: Let's just hope it ends better than HU did, because that was kind of a mess and the animation quality dropped off a bit at the end compared to the earlier episodes. Let's hope Ninja Kamui is consistent!!

The season will run 10/15-12/18, over by Christmas.

The Final Act! Dark Deku!!

Deku leaves...

And now they know!

Oops, wrong thread.

Quite a lot of exposition in this one! Only the Quirkless shall inherit the ultimate responsibility!!

What the hell!? There is no "opportunity to cut an hour"! If they cut one, it's as a last resort! So shut the HELL up about that! We're sick and tired of hearing it!

My town is having a hardcore music festival this weekend, and Shoegaze is one of the sub-genres!

Wasn't there something similar in a filler arc?

Good pair of episodes--lots going on!!

That was FRIGGIN' WILD!!!!

It was mentioned in the Production I.G. Talkback from Episode 2...

Yep, we're PINNED NOW!!

Don't you know? DeMarco IS ATOMSK!!! 🤯🤣

I fell asleep before Puberty started, dammit!

Weekly numbers are out: https://www.spoilertv.com/2023/03/top-400-cable-shows-week-ending-26th_01602488462.html?m=1 Fooly Cooly: Grunge landed a 0.093 in 18-49 and 189K viewers overall (but we already knew that) in Week 2. So that means so far FLCL: GRUNGE has averaged 198K and 0.0895 in 18-49. Will tomorrow night's finale push it over 200K and 0.09 18-49? We shall see!

Hey now, the thought of an FLCL Dubstep actually delights me because it may involve reworked remixes of Pillows tunes with Dubstep beats! [coming in 2028...]

Hey now, Fena's first 10 episodes weren't THAT bad; in fact it was quite good when it was trying to be "National Treasure: The Anime". Just wish it would have stayed that instead of turning into whatever the hell that was in the last 2 episodes and tanking Batman: The Long Halloween in the process!

With the announcement that Shoegaze will only be 3 episodes and replaces Grunge after 3, this sent my predictions for October topsy-turvy. Of course the wild card is Uzumaki. If it's ready, they may slide it in October 7th after Shoegaze, cutting us down to either one One Piece (BOOOOO...) or one Shippuden (that would be better!) Then we get the first 2 episodes at 12:30 and the last 2 at Midnight on October 21st and 28th...or maybe the conclusion airs the whole Midnight hour October 21st instead, and we just get a marathon October 28th? Also apparently available is Housing Complex C for another spin unless they wrote it off too. I'm going to be optimistic and say Uzumaki is finally on its way, AND we won't see marathons of FLCL Grunge and Shoegaze just yet. Then October looks like this: 7 & 14: FLCLS; Uzumaki; OP×2; NS; MHA 21: Uzumaki×2; OP×2; NS; MHA 28: Uzumaki/HCC marathons But if we DON'T get Uzumaki, then I guess Toonami has no choice but to resort to marathons of FLCL G&S: 7 & 14: FLCLS; OP×2; NS×2; MHA 21: FLCLG Marathon; OP(×2?); NS; MHA 28: FLCLS Marathon; HCC (3.5-hr block) Then for a bonus, on November 4th, hopefully we get a new show at Midnight and a rerun of Attack On Titan: The Final Chapters Part 1 from the first 2 AM to the 2nd 2:30 AM before MHA closes out the block like normal at 3. It certainly wouldn't be the worst way to make use of the DST bonus hour this year!

Found this on X:

Not bad, Toonami!! https://www.spoilertv.com/2023/09/tv-ratings-for-saturday-16th-september.html?m=1 Well, nothing above 200K total viewers, but FLCL: Grunge got a 0.09 in 18-49 and all 5 premieres made the Top 50!
