OwlChemist81 Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 Sure, these are reruns, but with a promo like this, it almost looks new! Exorcize those demons again at 1 AM Saturday Nights beginning tomorrow (11/2) on Toonami! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fun fact: it's actually starting out EARLIER than its premiere! Unless you count Thundercats 2011, maybe, I believe that's a first! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DangerMouse Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 Hell yeah! Let's do this! It's good to be back! Looking forward to seeing season 1 again and presumably more! It's been YEARS since I've watched the beginning other than the fantastic OP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DangerMouse Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 (edited) This show had an amazing first OP from UVERworld https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s99s4VCtCP8 I remember this opening and their one for the beginning of season 2 of Gundam 00 got me good at the time and ended up as regulars on my playlist. Just looking through the list, crazy how many good ones they've had: MHA, Bleach, Promised Neverland, Blood+, The Heroic Legend of Arslan, etc.... damn!

ben0119 Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 I have to say I was extremely baffled when I heard Toonami would be bringing back Blue Exorcist. The original promos gave off a tone more like Spawn, but it was yet another special school anime. Has to be one of the most generic and underwhelming shows out there. And it's a rerun and not new episodes, on top of that? Maybe they get some new episodes after this, though it will take a while to get through the first season. They still don't have to continue/bring back something just because it was on Toonami before. Then again, the fact this got so many more seasons is even more baffling. But, there's a lot worse shows they could have brought back, I suppose. This show doesn't piss me off, it's just kind of blah. I wonder how the following seasons handled the first season's diverging from the manga. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
