Apparently, some rule changed in the equation just recently. This makes sense in hindsight. They were planning to spend this time to plug FLCL 2 and 3 to high heaven with the FLCL reruns, the new bumps, and the behind-the-scenes featurettes with the staff we saw on TV. NOW they have MHA to promote, which means more work on a moments notice, but it's for the best. It’s very possible that this wasn’t IBOs original replacement. Whatever it was most likely wasn’t going to air at 11:30. They were all set to keep that slot as an “FLCL” slot for now leading into Progressive. That changed quickly once they secured MHA. It may have been in the works for awhile but they possibly weren’t planning on running it until after Kai was done. 2 Quote

What new show would they choose to run at 2:30 or so in the morning?? Maybe I just don't remember that. Quote
korosu Posted May 1, 2018 Posted May 1, 2018 Space Dandy was "waiting in the wings" so it was probably gonna replace Outlaw Star Quote

He's much more the grit do it type and unlike a lot of hothead shonen leads almost always has a strategy like say Shikamaru or Joseph Joestar in the second arc of Jojo. He's not whiny about fighting like some of the characters you listed. Reveal hidden contents He basically only cries like that at the beginning when he meets All Might, his hero, and when All Might picks him as his potential successor and when he finally impresses All Might. Reveal hidden contents Fortunately this show is never really about him earning his name without a power, since he gets his power so early and once he gets it no one really tries to convince you he doesn't have a Quirk anymore. They just comment that they're not sure what Quirk he has yet (since only he and All Might know). His name is Deku, really? That doesn't sound too bad. We'll see. Man, you know I don't usually click spoilers! Quote

Maybe I just don't remember that. They were going to premiere a new show but couldn't yet do so as planned due to legal reasons, but said it was still coming. In the meantime they are running Space Dandy as a backup. ...Just because Dandy is running at 2:30 doesn't mean the new show would have. Demarco also said that shows don't have to end for Toonami to add shows, meaning we won't have to wait for Dandy to end to get the new show. If MHA was a last minute thing then that means it wasn't this legally delayed show. Makes me also wonder if there was originally another replacement for IBO and what that would have been. 1 Quote

Daos Posted May 6, 2018 Posted May 6, 2018 7 hours ago, ben0119 said: So it's a kanji joke? Does that make it into the dub? Izuku's nickname, "Deku", was given to him by Katsuki when they were little. "Deku" is another reading of his name 出久, and Bakugou uses it to mock Izuku, as "Deku" can mean "the one who can't achieve/do anything". Later, Ochako finds the nickname very inspiring because "Deku" gives off a feeling of "I can do it". 1 1 Quote
PokeNirvash Posted May 6, 2018 Posted May 6, 2018 Is that white background supposed to mean it's spoiler text, because it's not working if it is. Quote
Daos Posted May 6, 2018 Posted May 6, 2018 No it's what happens when you copy paste from other sites a lot of the time. It's not really much of a spoiler. Quote
Blatch Posted May 6, 2018 Posted May 6, 2018 I prefer to remove any formatting from my text beforehand. Just dump it in the address bar, then copy and paste it back. Quote
