it's no secret that the ad-space for the toonami time-slots aren't really that valuable so we tend to get random commercials like those "Truth" anti-vape ads or Kay Jewelers

maybe you just get a weird adult swim short segment when there's ads to air(due to that space remaining vacant with no one showing interest)

 

so what are the weirdest ads You've seen run currently on toonami that just seem out of place and ill fitting for the block?

Eh, outside of the one night where they just kept airing them, Hot Pockets ads aren't exactly "random", since they've been broadcast on the block consistently for years.

Those Ben 10 toy commercials that aired every night during Eureka seveN reruns, on the other hand? Those were straight outta left field.

I still remember back in the day one ASA night had nothing but ads for gum.  That was back when [adult swim] couldn’t advertise booze.

Overall, the weirder ads I’ve seen on here are the ones for local tech institutes, online schools, and that one Bleach action figure commercial where they got JYB to promote an Ichigo figure, but the latter one was from ages ago.
