Also, it's not just boxing, it's boxing in a future dystopian world where they use machines to augment their boxing abilities. It's a solid anime that will appeal to people that don't like sports anime the same way Ping Pong did.
As long as we're on the topic of stuff Naraku thinks should never have been made..... there's no way this isn't airing on Toonami. AND THE STAKES ARE HIGHER THAN EVA.

Whoa easy with the attitude there you adorable underage teleporting lesbian.
Also on an unrelated note, Zombieland Saga..... gonna be the sleeper hit of the season, calling it now.
Ya know I'm in the same boat. I thought it was good.... but at some point I just got bored with it about 15-20 episodes in. It's just one of those anime I haven't been able to motivate myself to finish.
Are they going to air a Shonen from 2009 though? I mean it probably would have been a big hit for Toonami but I think that window of opportunity has passed.
FLCL sequels just weren't a good idea to start with, and the execution was just as bad as the idea. I really hope they didn't blow too much money on these failboats.
Well after the long wait they needed to follow up AOT with a hit S2 to recapture everyone's interest... but S2 was not that good. And now we have S3 and I think it's actually worse. When an anime is good it feels like the episode is over in 10 minutes, AOT on the other hand.....it just dragsssss now. The episodes feel like they take forever. It's officially poison to any casual anime watchers.
It reminds me of another certain hit anime that rose to greatness and then had a certain character get killed by a shinigami which made it take a severe downturn for the rest of its run.
Yeah I figure they'd introduce us to a cute girl in the first ep and have slime guy save her. Instead just a chat with a dragon. But hey points for being different and establishing his super slime powers.
Yeah I guess they kinda give that away in the OP that he'll be able to take human form at some point? A very uhh... feminine male form I guess?
The big one I'm waiting for is Goblin Slayer, this Sunday.
Well when you think about how low PTE and FLCL go... FLCL doing 400k as a dub premiere, and the very new PTE doing sub 400k.... there's really no way One Piece would do any worse.
And FLCL was probably a big expense. I don't see how OP wasn't cheaper.
