The quest of a ninja to reunite with his wife that got really popular last year (AKA - Better than Unicorn: Warriors Eternal) got enough attention and viewership for a second season.

It's out, and it's currently #3 on US Netflix behind The Crown and My Life with the Walter Boys, which seems similar to Alice in Borderland's trajectory. Anyway, the show rushes through the manga at warp speed, but is otherwise considered pretty good? The fight scenes are getting a lot of praise, and there's no "Welcome to the Ouch!" style San Francisco bullshit.

Toonami isn’t going to use that episode title.

Regular critics upped to 26%, but the Top Critics score is straight up 0%.

May 4 release date.

LOL.

Interesting to see even as One Piece remains on Toonami for now.

I figured we’d be getting something Titans related.

Final trailer.

Edit - Surprisingly Shadow and Bone was in the hundreds of millions for hours, so it had to be cost.

It was a shell of its former glory these past few years. Pulling the plug made sense.

One Piece was the 4th most Googled show in 2023.

Production has begun, headed by Joby Harold, the producer of Monarch: Legacy of Monsters (aka the TV show with Godzilla).

Crunchyroll is going to want their exclusivity window to drive subscribers, and after that, Netflix is where the money is, not Toonami. They likely will get it last just based on who’s paying what.

Trailer.

The manga is etching ever closer to its conclusion.

Grendizer was to the Middle East what Voltron was to the US, and now they’re funding a remake.

Starting the year off right it seems. Finally the saga comes to an end.

To be fair, it is from the author of The Seven Deadly Sins, which was a big hit for Netflix, but it’s still a golfing anime.

New trailer.

It’s probably some sort of tourist trap, like how IRL the place where they filmed the chainsaw scene in Scarface is a Johnny Rockets with a plaque noting where they filmed. You know Rockstar would have fun with that if Vercetti is still canon.
