So it's official now. Okay then. At least [as] has quite a while to plan out their post-FG future. And at least they get to keep American Dad! due to TBS's production of new episodes... even though those two networks aren't related anymore, but I'm sure Warner can keep it going around.

Mitsuboshi Colors #4 KonoSuba! S1E1 (dub) The iDOLM@STER Cinderella Girls Theater Climax Season #1 I did have the chance to watch the first episode of Shield Hero in the Anime Club, but I ended up leaving early that day. No hard feelings towards anyone in the group (or anyone involved with the show), but that wasn't what I wanted to see. IMHO, the woke take on W'z is not to hate it because it's Hand Shakers 2, but to enjoy it because it isn't a stupid isekai show.

I wouldn't say Goblin Slayer is off the table yet. Toonami is well known for getting shows (Tokyo Ghoul, et al.) long after their peaks of popularity. I wouldn't doubt that this show is still on their minds, and if it does air, the worst content is in the first episode (to my knowledge), so it wouldn't be very problematic after that. And at any rate, it would pail in comparison to the controversy Shield Hero were to bring up.

In the end, Jason put feels over reals. The damn Nielsen ratings have been defeated once again.

This is hilarious. It makes me wonder why the first schedule was even necessary. Did DeMarco dislike it but not waggle his finger hard enough at programming, or is the block being run this poorly?

In light of this, let's pretend that the original schedule retroactively is a joke. It was [as]' unofficial second gag, but with fewer mentally unstable Australian caricatures.

Not bad, honestly. This matches up nicely with the casting call from earlier, since Cho is Asian (albeit Korean, which is an interesting flex) and they have a black actor as Jet. No news on who's playing Ed, but I imagine the full cast is still being hammered out. If I had any material displeasure with this production, I'd express it in the form of Harold & Kumar jokes. But for right now, I'll see where it goes.

I would rather get the sexual assault out of the way. Having that episode air right before the premiere of The Promised Neverland is the worst thing you could do to that show. Plus, holding it off means you're airing a rerun where there shouldn't be, and that might bog down the ratings. Just think... one more episode, and this stuff is behind us for the rest of the season, if not SAO's entire run.

LOL, you're objectively right. Damn those Nielsen ratings! And congratulations on not complaining for cynicism's sake. There are some good things about this reshuffling, such as Black Clover being rewarded with a higher slot, but it otherwise sucks. JoJo's at 3:00 a.m. is the most I've been slighted by a schedule change since the infamous One Piece deathslotting. The only reason I'm not more mad at it is because I have a DVR and can watch any show whenever I want. But to complain that others don't have them is classist, so I feel for people who have to miss shows because they can't stay up late. I never assumed this would be a joke because Toonami has announced actual news on the 1st, such as acquiring Hunter × Hunter, but they probably should've held off on this one to avoid upsetting people.

How fitting is it for this show that it doesn't get a thread at midnight for the one episode people genuinely love... and yet I wish that weren't the case. Man, where's all your respect?

Unfortunately, we're getting another round of double SAO before it for some reason, and they haven't even finalized the 4/13 schedule yet. What the heck is going on down there? If this show even makes it to air, enjoy how good it is.

If you'd pulled an all-nighter yesterday, you could've gotten to the PI article before anyone else. That fearless 4chan user who posted the ratings thread at 4:00 a.m. is, as the kids would say, braver than the troops.

It's a show from before my time. I mean... and no harm towards Poke for this, but if Toonami can air Dimension W, this one could feasibly make a comeback.

What I want to know is if he's above being a sycophant for CR's shows appealing to alt-right anime fans. You've got some fine, fine slavery apologia with Shield Hero, plus multiple shows with shock rape scenes.

I don't know about anyone else (except Poke), but I recently got a gut feeling that it'll be Lupin the Third Part V. It seems right that Toonami will disappoint some of us with another sequel while still getting the bare minimum of something new.

I wouldn't mind them going back to airing anime during the first hour, even if it's just DB Super again. However, one good idea I want to see is My Hero Academia leading off, and then something like The Venture Bros. at 8:30.

Eh... I intentionally know it's on, but don't watch. And that's only because I'm so behind on the shows.

Screw your stupid pessimism. Toonami has survived without any Dragon Ball before, and it could probably do so again.

That's precisely why I wouldn't mind one at this time. Do it for either St. Patty's or Easter. That'll teach something to everyone complaining about marathons.

Who knows if they already have Megalo's replacement picked out, but with how the block has been run lately (as in, last October), I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't. But if so, and if it weren't for this, they could've put a lame-duck half-hour like the Countdown supercut/Scavengers on again.

The OP has done nothing but shit up the joint for much of the time they've been here, so I wouldn't bother with a response even mildly pedantic. I do still think getting rid of most topicals was a good idea. There was never a good reason to do them for every premiere. That we're now back to the standard for 2017 and such, where DB Super and the most recent/noteworthy new show gets promoted every week, is a lot better than flooding the airwaves with promos that won't attract much viewership. Plus, it's good to get the Toonami name out there in advertising anyway.
