Blatch

Well this is very much not what happened to Metalocalypse. I actually have not watched Season 3 beyond the first two episodes. I hope it's not as middling (nor as oppressively dark) as other people have made it out to be.

I have no idea if sweeps have ever mattered for cable television. For that matter, they've become much less relevant on the major networks in the last few years. Are you continuing to say this just to annoy me?

They probably will do that. From this point, it's pretty easy to predict what marathons will happen. FLCLs Progressive and Alternative will probably get their own weekends, and those will probably be Labor Day and Halloween respectively. Thanksgiving's marathon could be pretty much anything, but I'm thinking they slip another run of Samurai Jack S5 in there, or maybe My Hero Academia gets one. December could have a run of both new FLCL seasons back-to-back to go along with the requisite Dragon Ball Super marathon. After all, even if this FLCL marathon is the longest, the one they did for Attack on Titan S1 still had more unique content.

Like this?

They're right. I don't think there's a better way to celebrate than skipping Toonami entirely. As a side note, since they're doing this weird tactic with staggering the second run, the marathon should be 6 1/2 hours long, making it the absolute longest in Toonami history.

The only show that's done considerably well airing after DBZ is One-Punch Man, to the point where it outrated the O.G. Kai on several occasions. It seems all you really need is anything with superheroes.

That's a good showing for MHA's premiere. It's not as if it was going to flop spectacularly, but I like to know there are other people watching the show with us.

It works well on my phone, which has pretty unremarkable specs.

Their rationale this time will probably be that each FLCL season is only six episodes, so they're unlikely to be pulled... even though that happened with Samurai Jack S5 after just three of them.

Seriously? From my limited experience with the app, they made it better than ever. But now it's prone to not working at all for long stretches of time? That's just rubbish.

I think coming out the same season as King's Game actually hurt Evil or Live a lot. There isn't enough space in an anime season for multiple shows full of schlocky cheese, especially when one of them is far more (in)competently made. The iDOLM@STER Cinderella Girls Theater (TV) S2 #3 to #7

Interviews with Monster Girls #2 Megalo Box #5 I'm all for dubbing this show quickly just so Jman doesn't have to yell about it for the next few months.

Wow, you've gone from being lukewarm on the show to almost a parody of yourself. At least this one isn't homophobic... by some extremely skewed standards.

You could just write the first episodes off as early installment weirdness. Maybe the author didn't even know what story they wanted to write at first? As I've said before, the vast majority of people completely glossed over this plot point, kept watching the show, and now cannot stop gushing about it. That's got to account for something.

Ugh, come on.

I'm not giving a shit about MHA's ratings. It can be the biggest failure in Toonami history for all I care, but I'll still watch the show every week and try to like it.

What did it say? A TV-14LV instead of just the V? The fact that it didn't even show My Hero Academia's rating, nor its episode title (which, admittedly, the cable guides also skipped) is enough ammo to not trust it. Here are some thoughts: My Hero Academia: So the world went from being completely normal, to just having a bunch of superheroes show up one day. That's a pretty fun premise. It is a little surprising that the world immediately warmed up to them rather than some Incredibles-type shit happening where they caused property damage and unknowingly made things worse. It's nice to see some more idealistic superhero stories, of course. I like Deku as an MC; the show isn't saying that he can't become a hero every ten seconds (it's closer to every minute instead, which is more tolerable), but he's such a nice, optimistic dude in general. Bakugo is an asshole through and through, but I'm sure the show will eventually portray him in a more approachable light, while All Might is the gold standard of the supers, with no negative qualities other than being really scraggly and weak-looking when he isn't transformed. On the other hand, that's a nice quality to have, because if you ever need a secret identity in this world (I don't know if they actually exist), all you need to do is hide somewhere and transform. Don't do it in a bathroom stall, though; Saki might be waiting. For me, the two disappointments of this episode are that "shit" is apparently censored in this show (which has to be a licensor request), and we didn't get to see Deku's father and his fire-breathing Quirk. This was otherwise a solid premiere. FLCL: Talk about... uh, explicit. JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: This was just an amazing episode. I think if I ever want to teach people what JoJo's is all about, this is one of the arcs I'd show them. Everything is just so crazy, and without much crude weirdness. In general, this one felt like a much-needed palate cleanser after the WTF-inducing Alessi episodes. Hunter x Hunter: I've never seen an anime character who was yandere for multiple guys until now. Come on, it just doesn't work that way. Still, that must have been the best part of the episode, because I can barely remember anything from Killua's fight, if it was even that long.

I prefer to remove any formatting from my text beforehand. Just dump it in the address bar, then copy and paste it back.

Honestly, you're getting annoying with this critique. I don't disagree with it, but can you at least let up for just a little bit and see if anything beyond the second episode is good?

"Yoooooooogi boy..."

So Jotaro managed to smuggle some cigs and a drink onto the playing table when D'Arby wasn't looking... or rather, nobody was. This seems reminiscent of the very first episode, when he was able to get a radio into his jail cell under similar circumstances. I wonder if these powers are connected somehow...

If I was in Dan Harmon's position, I probably would've left the show out of shame due to the whole Szechuan sauce thing. How can you come back from a scandal that led to literal riots at various McDonalds locations, all over a tiny packet of bitter-tasting slop?

I typically take whatever thread is at the bottom as having won. Maybe, if someone wants to win it this time, they can use the extremely accurate time-positioning powers of this website.

I'm still wondering if I should lash out at this community for being even more autistic than I think of myself, but in the end, I guess I'll just keep tolerating it for as long as I can. After all, we might be good people. [you look everywhere except beside you]

It makes more sense to play the dub of something that you've already aired that way for two seasons. This is a hard no. We're not going to get GGO Alternative's dub, if Toonami even wants to air it, for a couple of months after the show ends. In fact, it could on Crunchyroll, since they recently added the dub of SAO II and have also exclusively streamed Aniplex shows like Granblue Fantasy in English.
