If they can get it, Boruto seems likely, if only because DeMarco's earlier concern about kids shows went out the window the second they aired Unicorn and My Adventures with Superman. If not, well, it boils down once again to what Crunchyroll will let them have.

Finished Onimusha. Definitely a Takashi Miike joint. Better than Nocturne.

Leftover lamb, bread and salad.

Onimusha 2-4.

Thigh, breast, drumstick, and wing in last. There’s a reason you need 8-12 wings for a meal.

Onimusha 1. This is definitely a Takashi Miike joint.

For their sake, I hope the rumors the Infinity Castle arc is a movie trilogy aren’t true.

Knights of the Zodiac - 3/10. Decent fight scenes cannot make up for the fact that this is a weakly acted, badly written adaptation of Saint Seiya that would be way better if they just adapted the manga more faithfully. Apparently Macenryu wasn’t happy with the role, but thankfully he had Zoro as his breakout Western role.

Out of control budgets, a lead villain under indictment for assault, and diminishing returns from both the audience and the critics. It all adds up to a collapsing empire.

The counterpoint for better or for worse is that people are watching it. It kicked Castlevania Noctune’s teeth in bad enough the show might not get a third season. It’s something that will get attention outside of Dr. Stone and Attack on Titan Plantasm whenever the dub is cleared.

“Better get on those remasters.”

Final trailer. Between this, Across the Spider-Verse on Netflix, and Invincible Season 2, it’s a good weekend for animation.

Insert Jason DeMarco joke here.

Pluto 2-4. This is brilliant. Apparently it was also the result of Urasawa being such a micromanager the entire studio called him out on it.

Nothing he says is wrong, but he also made FLCL sequels, so I don’t know if he gets to have an opinion.

They were interviewing these Argentinians in the full costumes. I don’t know enough about their politics to get why, but there they were.

John Oliver did a piece on Argentinian elections, and apparently supporters of the anarcho-capitalist were wearing Chainsaw Man costumes to symbolize taking a chainsaw to the government spending. Should I be relieved Oliver doesn’t know what CM is? Of course if it ends up on Netflix he will, but for now, slight relief.

My main concern is if people will double dip. The show is popular. It aired on Netflix and beat the brakes off a ton of their originals, (Fuck you Nocturne!) but Mugen Train is almost four years old. If people come back to Toonami for seconds, great, but I wonder if more people will just watch on Netflix.

Or if you’re stuck with AT&T for your phone, you look up how to get free Max from them, apparently a leftover of the old ownership.

This is a shocker given how Demon Slayer has been cleaning up everywhere it’s aired, and frankly, seemed outside Toonami’s budget.

As long as it doesn’t affect premiere dates elsewhere, which is what I always worry about. This is a big deal, especially after Demon Slayer’s most recent season kicked Castlevania Nocturne’s ass despite having been on Crunchyroll for months.
