Top Gun Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 Ninja please. Srsly though I'm down for Batman Ninja, and Under the Red Hood is supposedly one of the very best DC animated movies. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jman Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 This is the most batshit amazing Batman animation ever and I hope more people enjoy it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PokeNirvash Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 At this point, I'm more flattered than offended that I'm getting a Black Clover double-up for my birthday. But more importantly, this little TV spot is now 100% Toonami-relevant. 2 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Top Gun Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 I just had the thought that "Batman Ninja" absolutely sounds like something Hank Venture came up with. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OwlChemist81 Posted September 30, 2021 Author Share Posted September 30, 2021 (edited) I enjoyed the Batman movies last year and I'm sure I'll probably enjoy these! But the real question is what will the lineup look like on October 23rd and October 30th? And November 7th for that matter? I'm anticipating a marathon October 30th but then again I guess we might not get one and the ending Fena might get a rerun slot then, replacing Black Clover. MHA Season 5 is apparently ending October 30 if no marathon, and November 7th if there will be one. The low-hanging fruits for Fena and MHA's premiere replacements are Blade Runner: Black Lotus and Demon Slayer Season 2, but the latter has a one-hour premiere which complicates things. Either way, after the lineup has been fairly stable for months, interesting times are ahead for Toonami!

It’s not 2003 anymore. Trust me, I need to remind myself on occasion. Edited September 30, 2021 by Jman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps but they are airing the 2014 Michael Bay produced Ninja Turtles on their ACME Night block on CN so maybe they could get Batman vs TMNT some day. I think the TV rights might still be with Nicktoons at the moment but I honestly have no idea. I'd sure love to see Batman vs TMNT on Toonami though. Red Hood is fantastic and Batman Ninja is a sight to behold. These are good picks for another DC night. Glad Fena isn't getting pre-empted but since MHA is, they'll either have to double it up on October 23rd to finish the same night as Fena (and stave off replacing Black Clover another week or two baring a marathon). I'm thinking they'll do a marathon of My Villain Academia on October 30th and if they don't double up MHA on October 23rd then they can start the marathon with the final episode of season 5 then repeat the six episode villain arc and maybe throw in the episode right before that to cover 7 slots. Alternatively they could marathon Fena or some other show. I'm pretty confident Blade Runner: Black Lotus will replace Fena but I have my doubts they'll want to do that on October 30th. They could have done this way smoother and promoted DC Fandome before it actually ended if they did so on October 9th. Then they would have really needed to double up Clover. Oh well. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blatch Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 I have a low propensity for superheroes, given that I skipped out on half the Batman stuff they showed last year, but I'll try to fit these two movies in. Batman Ninja seems like it'd be something cool to watch live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I Don't mind these but I Always hate when they happen because it's usually an obnoxious commercial to get you to subscribe to hbo max or in this case pay attention to the dc fandome event....even though it's already over by toonami's start time so nice going idiots....getting toonami to promote something after it's concluded Edited October 3, 2021 by CountFrylock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ben0119 Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Batman Ninja was cited by various folks as an anime to check out before watching Star Wars Visions. I believe it was made by the same studio that did the The Duel episode. So, I was interested in it, but wasn't rushing to see it. Having Toonami air it now is pretty convenient for me. I wonder if this movie was intentionally selected by Demarco given that Visions just aired. It is pretty smart timing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
