Terrafamilia June 16, 2019 Share June 16, 2019 Hunter x Hunter has 1 more episode, The Promised Neverland 2 episodes, and SOA-A 4 episodes left. I know the new Gundam series is scheduled to start July 6 so that looks to be the Neverland replacement. Any other news? Link to comment

I found this on Toonami's Facebook: Quote We’re running “the best” Hunter x Hunter episode ever, but we need YOUR help picking it. Which of these is your favorite episode? Episode #126 – “Zero x and x Rose” Episode #135 – “This Day × And × This Moment” We’ll run the winner on 6/29 - Thanks! So I guess Gundam: The Origin will fill that slot. More likely, it'll air before 1 a.m., and the other shows would be shifted around yet again. Link to comment
Vermicious Knid June 19, 2019 Share June 19, 2019 We're getting the AoT dub only a few weeks behind the Japanese broadcast, so I'm hoping they'll announce One Punch Man season 2 soon. It started running in April. There is also the completed Mob Psycho 100 season 2, but I've no idea if the rating were enough to warrant them acquiring it. 1 Link to comment

I hope we get either or both of ONE's series soon. That dopey Mob grew on me. Same with Reigen. And I'm still holding out hope they're bring back One Piece. I mean, if they're set on airing all of Naruto . . . Link to comment
Matt K June 19, 2019 Share June 19, 2019 I'm only part way through the dub but Mob Psycho 100 season 2 is amazing. I liked season 1 but season 2 is a significant upgrade. I kind of hope they pick that up and One Punch Man despite the lackluster reviews I've been seeing. Link to comment

Lantern7 June 28, 2019 Share June 28, 2019 (edited) Toonami has heard the fans. "We want anime about cooking where tasters are so delighted, they practically orgasm!!!!! Oh, and My Hero Academia moved to the end of the block at 3:30 a.m." I reckon Toonami has hearing problems. Edited June 28, 2019 by Lantern7 Link to comment

Vermicious Knid June 29, 2019 Share June 29, 2019 Well, no one was expecting that. [Checks Google] Apparently those are two different series. Food Wars is also called Shokugeki no Soma. MHA moved to 3:30am? Screw you Toonami. Link to comment

I just wouldn’t want it to be just me in there. Link to comment
lathspel July 1, 2019 Share July 1, 2019 Seems like Food Wars is aiming to be the JoJo bizarre replacement? Possibly crossed with Kill la Kill. I’m willing to give it a try. Link to comment

Matt K July 3, 2019 Share July 3, 2019 Just a heads up but my TV listing (Verizon Fios) isn't showing any of these shows as new for May 6th (and it doesn't have Gundam or Food Wars). So you might want to check to make sure they record if you dvr these shows like I do. Link to comment

Vermicious Knid July 8, 2019 Share July 8, 2019 In more Things That May Show Up on Toonami guesses, I had no idea Shinichiro Watanabe (Cowyboy Beepop) has a brand new series. Carole & Tuesday. Already run it's first half in Japan and premieres worldwide on Netflix but Toonami has gotten all his other shows so it will probably show up eventually. Link to comment

Lantern7 July 16, 2019 Share July 16, 2019 I am confused. The latest edition of Sword Art Online ended this past Saturday . . . and I don't know what will be replacing it. As a matter of fact, I don't see what Toonami will be doing this Saturday night. Is anyone else having that problem? Link to comment

Sandman87 July 21, 2019 Author Share July 21, 2019 gen:LOCK looks like it could be an ok show. The visuals look a lot like the cutscenes in the Mechwarrior video games. Shouldn't be on Toonami, since it's not anime, but it looks ok. Link to comment

Or is it a thing where the acquisition of the property and the air date are so close, a teaser couldn't have been made that quickly? Link to comment

If there's a minimal amount of time between Japan and U.S. episode premieres, then what would Toonami run? Maybe gen:LOCK gets plugged in earlier than expected, and that'swhy we got the teasers.

Attack on Titan has wrapped up, and gen:Lock will be airing at 11:30 p.m. Any reactions to Fire Force? It's like the protagonist's life has to suck that friggin' hard in order to even register with the otaku. Young Shinra: Look, Mommy! I'm gonna be a hero! Mrs. Kusakabe: I love you, son! And now I'm gonna burst into flame and become an Infernal. Young Shinra: NOOOOOOOO!!!! Neighbors: His mother died and his brother got burnt to a crisp, and he's walking around free? Look at that wicked smile! Young Shinra: It's a facial thing. Anytime I get nervous, I look like I'm grinning, and- Neighbors: HE IS THE DEVIL!!!!!! Young Shinra: Well, at least my grandmother can take me in. Grandma: DEVIL! EVIL!! MURDERER!!!!! [wavy SFX to the present day] Shinra: . . . and now I use my Third Generation pyrokinesis to join Special Fire Force Company 8 and save lives! Also, maybe figure out why we got a religious bent going here. It's not that we got a sexy nun, but there is a nun and she is attractive. Better than Sister Lily over on Black Clover, anyway. 1 Link to comment
Sandman87 July 31, 2019 Author Share July 31, 2019 Fire Force strikes me as what you might get if a bunch of management types tried to write a supernatural action anime. Watchable but bland. Link to comment

Sandman87 August 21, 2019 Author Share August 21, 2019 gen:Lock is pretty good so far, although I nominate the Scottish girl as the team's first casualty. So annoying. Maybe it's a bad promo, but Dr. Stone looks like it's going to be Dr Snore. Link to comment
Lantern7 August 25, 2019 Share August 25, 2019 New lineup kicks off tonight. Also, it turns out My Hero Academia got pushed to the back because Toonami ran through all three seasons. From Bleeding Cool: Writer offers her dream Toonami lineup. It includes a few anime that have never been in that block. Link to comment
Sandman87 August 25, 2019 Author Share August 25, 2019 I can save the brainy guy on Dr. Stone a whole lot of trouble on that brandy making project: Just make some wine and then stick it out in the snow until it gets slushy. Discard the ice, and the remaining liquid will have a significantly higher alcohol content. Link to comment
