You see this is exactly what I’m talking about.

Funny enough, the second season of Jujutsu Kaisen also debuts tonight on Crunchyroll. In a perfect world, that’s what airs on Toonami for the summer (especially after Kaisen 0 did very strong box office numbers for the small cost of its release and would have been CR’s biggest film of 2022 if not for Super Hero), but we’ve beaten that horse dead. Anyway, you ever feel like American attempts to recall shounen always feel…off? There’s always something that people can feel is wrong, be it the movement, the writing, or just the way people are drawn. I’m not saying an episode needs Power Girl with her airbags bouncing around (or maybe I am? I dunno) but there’s this feeling of “you’re trying to be something you’re not. We love the DC animation most of the time! It’s universally considered the area DC always beats Marvel in! Just be you!” If the summer was just DC releasing their films post Apocolaypse (The Tomorrowverse as it’s been called) leading up to WarWorld in September, I think that would have gotten more attention. There’s a lot of films ranging from interesting concepts to genuinely good that all feel like it’s more of DC doing what it’s good at, rather than getting people who don’t know or don’t want to know how to do shounen to awkwardly shoehorn Superman into that role. This is probably why Gunn is wiping the animation slate clean as well.

Guess that’s a high enough note to go out on.

Fresh from the last echoes of the Hamada-run DC comics brand, this pseudo-anime take on the Man of Steel debuts tonight at midnight. Tonight is the first two episodes of the series, with an encore set for Toonami.

Allegedly a senior editor has a movie deal with Warner. You can guess what happened next.

Yeah, it’s easy when your primary ratings mover is the NBA.

My guess is it was from a tour group, since the Biden’s weren’t in the day it was found. Still…

But the internet never forgets.

I've been following this for a while, because well, farming takes up a ton of space, and despite what hardcore preservationists insist, no one is fucking eating crickets as their main source of protein. The question now is the kinds (fat to meat ratio, especially in cuts of beef) and of course, price parity. It's meat, not plants disguised as meat, not bugs shaped into meat, meat. So you get that messaging out, and you can do a lot if you reach price parity, especially since it is cruelty free and presumably requires a lot less land and water.

Apparently this is how bad the Zaslav write off rumors have gotten.

And finally, a teaser.

Harley and Joker designs. Yes, “We Are Living in a Society in Another World.”

The Suicide Squad, because James Gunn actually made people like them.

Behind the scenes since stop motion is a very, VERY time consuming process.

‘Trailer for Part II.

Potential strike issues aside, that isn’t necessarily a bad idea. It keeps Uzumaki from being drowned out in the news about Zom 100 and Panty & Stocking.

My guess is DeMarco pulled it for the Adult Swim festival later in the month. Or it’s just that far behind production and they’re begging Zaslav not to write it off.

A lot of Unicorn’s artistic oddities can be explained by the first draft going full into the Franco-Belgian influence, while the second draft is far more recognizable as a Genndy product.

Trailer. Lazzo would have wanted this.

Roasted duck with yellow rice and a salad.

‘Original cast is returning for the Japanese dub.

Ok, so everyone (but Toonami) is getting the anime. Netflix, Crunchyroll, and Hulu. But in August, Netflix is getting a Japanese live action adaptation too. Because why not?
