(As usual, feel free to post poo poo about other Adult Swim shows since no one in TVIV has started a new Adult Swim thread.) Spoiler policy for ADTRW regulars please don't post spoilers for shows just in case we have people going in blind watching these shows. Well, unless you want to spoil one of the never-ending shonen shows like Naruto, 'cause no one gives a poo poo. Also everyone and their grandma has seen DBZ. Follow-up: not everyone has not seen DB Super, so again, be kind. Toonami was America's premiere action block from '97 until '08. They showed a whole bunch of anime (and stuff like Batman: TAS but most people just remember the anime) and are most notable for basically bringing Dragonball Z to the US (for better or for worse). Adult Swim brought it back as their April Fool's Day prank in 2012 and people lost their poo poo nostalgia trippin' so now its back for good and has supplanted the AS Anime block. Currently airing: 9:00 - Dragon Ball Z Kai like dis if u are a 90s kid You thought Kai was dead? WELL TOO BAD MOTHERFUCKER (or good for you motherfucker if you really like Kai, I guess) because much like Goku himself, Kai refuses to stay dead. For those who somehow don't know, I should explain that the "Kai" is there because the animation has been remastered for HDTV (however, it has not been redone entirely, meaning that it is still the old footage in 4:3 aspect ratio, meaning that when this airs you will see annoying black bars on the side of your screen, but don't adjust your TV, it'll just make Goku stretchy (his lamest technique)). The voice acting has also been redone entirely, and the soundtrack has been replaced with the original Japanese one. Those of you who grew up watching the dubbed version in the old days with the replaced score by Bruce Faulconer may now feel free to get into heated comment wars about which music score is superior. Finally, the "Kai" is there because it cuts all the filler (bye Garlick Jr). None of that "whole episode worth of charging an attack" poo poo. Kai's all killer, no filler, baby. Unfortunately that means the episode where Goku and Piccolo drive cars is gone and thus the whole thing is HORSESHIT. I was gonna look for more funny gifs but look, I think I know what everybody wants when we're discussing DBZ: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVdlBxdqv8s 9:30 - My Hero Academia pretty sure Deku's quirk is crying more tears than the human body is capable of producing In a world where superpowers are the norm, all the kids want to train and be the next big superhero (this is a viable career option apparently), none more so than protagonist Izuku Midoriya. The catch though, is that Izuku has no power (called a quirk in this world because reasons), making him basically a freak, in a bad way. Can he somehow still become a hero even if he has no powers? Will meeting the world's #1 (and his personal favorite) hero All Might help? Probably. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TRcU73DZ_A4 10:00 - Naruto Shippuden this show will never die Naruto is a ninja kid from the Hidden Leaf Village who wants to be the very best, like no one ever was. Unfortunately he's got a demon locked up inside him and it seems like a bunch of evil guys want to capture it (and use it for nefarious purposes). Here's where the recap ends because Shippuden starts after a timeskip and Naruto (the original) is like 400 episodes long and I'm not reading the entire Naruto wiki to write a synopsis. Because god knows Shippuden sure doesn't waste any time explaining who old characters are, it just launches right ahead... Naruto is the current holder of the Adult Swim title belt for "slowest moving program on the block" which is frankly remarkable since we watched all the way through loving Bleach. 10:30 - Boruto: Naruto Next Generations or Bort: Nart Next Generations i wish, kid... SPOILER ALERT FOR THE LAST SHOW I GUESS because Boruto is Naruto's kid after Naruto becomes Ninja Jesus and the President and marries the girl with the big boobs. Boruto has unfortunately gained the "shonen protagonist" gene from his father which means that he's a little shitheel who has ~HIDDEN POWER~ and he can't age until there's a timeskip. So he's gonna hang out with all the other kids of all the other characters from Naruto and have adventures. A lot of people guessed that AS would acquire the rights to this show but they thought that they'd cancel Shippuden and put this in its place. Too bad motherfuckers because the Naruto power hour is here to stay (for now). 11:00 - Dragon Ball Super Start charging your power levels All right raise your hands, did you honestly think for a second that Toonami wasn't gonna show DB Super eventually? I mean DBZ was only their highest rated show ever, why would they not show the sequel series? ANYWAY, if for some reason, you've never heard of Dragon Ball Super, it's... well, basically just more DBZ. All your old DBZ buddies show up and save the world from evil bad guys and junk. If you're a big nerd, you can rejoice that Super's existence makes Dragon Ball GT non-canon. And hey it's still airing in Japan so you're not completely behind, even they don't know everything about the series! (you're completely behind, their episode count is already in triple-digits). It is important to note that the last two DBZ movies, Battle of Gods and Resurrection F are actually canon in Super, however if you haven't seen those either, worry not because Super retells them in episodic format (with a few little differences). 11:30 - FLCL: Alternative FLCL, also known as Fooly Cooly, is a super-weird show about robots, aliens, guitars, vespa motor-scooters, and also puberty metaphors FLCL was but a 6-episode long one-season show... until a few years ago. However Toonami shelled out the dough to coproduce two additional 6-episode seasons with Production I.G. The two seasons are named FLCL Progressive and FLCL Alternative. Annnnd that's pretty much all we know about them. I mean here's a couple trailers.... This one's for Alternative, the one airing now... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YkuouO8qUvw And this one's for both seasons, so there's a little bit of Progressive and Alternative in there... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lleTz_DQTh4 And here's several Behind the Scenes videos from both the Japanese and English production staff... But there's still no real plot details or character stuff revealed. The main character of Alternative is Kana, she has brown hair. She looks to be more cheerful than our previous protagonist, let's see how that goes. So all the ingredients for something are there, with an all-star voice cast, much of the original animation team, and The Pillows doing the soundtrack. Now cross your fingers and let's see if they can put it all together... 12:00 - Attack on Titan Season 3 now with 50% less attacking titans! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySYz8qtdmXM yes, AoT is back, love it or hate it. After developments last season (I'm not gonna recap it, you've got google, do it yourself) showing that Titan shifters (and bad ones, not the good idiots like protagonist Eren Jaeger) it looks like the Titans outside the walls may be less of a concern than the mystery and intrigue inside. However this means less fighting of Titans which is ostensibly the draw. A lot of folks have fallen off the AoT bandwagon and this one looks to be divisive as well. 12:30 - JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Diamond is Unbreakable What the hell did you say about my thread? The plot of Jojo's is way too long and convoluted to boil down into one paragraph but suffice it to say it involves following a family on bizarre adventures, and then the story ends and a new chapter starts down the line with a new protagonist that is somehow related to the prior one. Jotaro Kujo (front part 3) has been sent to quiet Morioh Village to hunt down a woman who his grandpa Joseph Joestar (from part 2) knocked up back in the day, presumably so Joseph can write her her into his will or something, who knows, but also to find a vicious killer in Morioh. Along the way, he runs into the Jojo/lead of this part, Josuke Higashkita, who is technically his uncle. Weird. Anyway now that Stands are a thing, expect all sorts of batshit powers to show up as these Jojos try to stop the person causing bizarre incidents in town (the show makes that joke, not me). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZdASY_hfn9E 1:00 - Black Clover https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NFmxsgXqAQg Imagine if you will, that animes are foods. Imagine then, if instead of trying to create a new dish with a new flavor, you took a bunch of leftovers out of the fridge, and blended them into a disgusting protein shake of flavors you've already tasted and might be kind of tired of. This is Black Clover. Main character This show is incredibly sub-par and you should feel bad for Adult Swim for buying it. I mean it was supposed to be the hot new poo poo, broadcast rights probably cost them a pretty penny. Then everyone hated it. It got moved from a pretty sweet spot at the start of block to back here. 1:30 - Hunter X Hunter Now featuring 100% more weird karate powers Hunter X Hunter is a show about a kid named Gon who wants to find his dad after finding out said dad isn't as dead as he was led to believe. His dad was a Hunter, which in this world is a Big Deal, so Gon figures that's how he'll get a lead on him. Gon got his Hunter license, so now we're just watching him and his friends go on merry adventures doing things like starting a coup against a regime of deadly ant monsters that themselves overthrew Anime North Korea. For kids! It's written by the guy who created Yu Yu Hakusho, which was one of the first shows on Adult Swim oh so many years ago, so perhaps airing on Toonami was Hunter X Hunter's destiny. Anyway, here's the toonami promo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGgSyiWcwhk And here is the ADTRW thread for it which I recommend reading the OP of because it's very funny. 2:00 - One Punch Man So have you ever seen that clip from the end of Justice League where Superman talks about living in a world of cardboard? Imagine if Superman were even stronger and didn't give a gently caress. One Punch Man is a phenomenon that grew from a webcomic with lovely art to a professionally drawn manga to getting a full anime. It's about Saitama, a guy who's a superhero for fun, and his day to day life facing threats that would be the final battle in any other anime... and also getting excited about making it to the supermarket when they have good deals. 2:30 Death Slot - Lupin the Third Part 4 Okay so Lupin revolves around Lupin and his gang of master thieves stealing poo poo. Here's your cast:
3:00 Death Slot - Cowboy Bebop Okay look if this is your first time seeing Cowboy Bebop and you're watching Toonami and you somehow haven't seen it in the ~10 year period where Adult Swim was running it every single Saturday, if not every single night? Well congrats you get to see a good show, but more importantly, who are you because I don't believe you exist. Anyway after a brief period where Cowboy Bebop wasn't on the air(!) it's back again to remind you that you're up too late but wow isn't that one episode great I should stay up and watch it... 3:30 Why are you still awake Slot - Samurai Jack Gotta get back to the past https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NtgXDiXr-0M Samurai Jack was a cartoon on Cartoon Network that ran from '01 to '04. It was pretty great, mixing great action with humor and mostly remembered for being stylish as poo poo. I mean, it won an Emmy. Through some dark magic it got brought back 12 years later for a finale. Opinions are mixed about how good the season was (in particularly people arguing if the finale sucked or not). Everybody agrees that the first few are good though, and if you've never seen the old episodes they're all on Hulu and you should definitely watch them. Frankly though if you're up this late you're probably half-asleep anyway and you don't give a poo poo what you're watching. What's still coming this year? Who can say? Several shows are wrapping soon with zero replacements announced. FLCL Alternative wraps in October, and Toonami doesn't like to do repeats of shows (at least not in good spots) so you can bank on something new going there most likely. My Hero Academia season 3 isn't confirmed but I mean come on, probably. And after that AoT S3 will end. After that we've got a looot of long-running shonen which will probably stick around until they end sometime in 2025. Personally I'm not betting on Naruto making it to its finale but who knows. Anyway regarding that gap: The following franchises have aired on Toonami before and have since had new seasons and/or reboots released but not aired over here. Since Toonami likes to stick with what works for the most part, these have a higher chance of airing here than most:
ALSO Every Saturday night while the more boring shonen shows are on TV, Waffleman or Baal or I dunno who's running it these days is building you a better cartoon show. They it Goonami MEANWHILE EVERY OTHER DAY OF THE WEEK... Adult Swim is a block on Cartoon Network that's been running strong now since 2001. It's their late-night offering for grown-ups such as ourselves. This high class stuff includes a show where a guy hosts a parody talk show and pukes on himself and a bunch of Family Guy reruns. ...Okay so listen looking through AS's site and cross-referencing wikipedia to find what is and isn't canceled is a real pain in the rear end so I'm not gonna because 99% of this thread is Toonami chat anyway so here's UPCOMING/RENEWED SHOWS Hot Streets ummm... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6d7YHqDi1KQ Note: none of the following have scheduled airdates, all I'm going from is Wikipedia's list of shows and checking the non-canceled ones. Mostly 4 Millennials From the same crew behind another AS show, Totally for Teens, so here's some clips of that as it sounds very similar https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z7Z375WQ9xU Dream Corp, LLC Ummm....

Roberts employs a team of incompetent scientists to help analyze and record those thoughts plaguing the doctor's patients.

That's all the summary you loving need, Eric Andre rules, watch this show you cretins. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5uLc0N4r2U Mr. Pickles Mr. Pickles is a show by two Funny or Die writers and it should have died but it is on a 3rd season, proving that God is dead. The joke, the only joke, is What if Lassie were a demon hound? And that's it. It's just awful. If you are watching Mr. Pickles you are a bad person for providing it ratings. Neon Joe: Werewolf Hunter Neon Joe is... um... well... hmm. Just watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OYksJUfyxEw Tim & Eric's Bedtime Stories I haven't liked anything T&E have done since Tom Goes To The Mayor but if you love the guys, even more good news, apparently there's more Bedtime Stories coming. You know what, I lied, I do like something Tim & Eric have done because in the middle of writing this I remembered Paul Rudd At His Computer exists and I'm just gonna post that https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=maAFcEU6atk Rick and Morty Rick and Morty is basically what would happen if Doc Brown was even smarter, but a raging alcoholic and Marty McFly was his stupid grandson. Has its own dedicated thread here. Surprising no one, the show got renewed for a fourth season, because it loving rules. Also surprising no one, it has spawned an insufferable fanbase of nerds who yell at McDonald's employees for not having a discontinued sauce. But anyway, watch the show if you haven't already, you're really missing out. rick and morty a hundred years dot com Squidbillies Squidbillies is basically Aqua Teen Hunger Force with redneck jokes. It's very funny, but if you don't like ATHF's style of low budget, barely-animated comedy well then you won't like this. Mike Tyson Mysteries Mike Tyson Mysteries is exactly what it sounds like, which is to say loving nuts. It's Mike Tyson solving mysteries with his adopted daughter Yung Hee (Rachel Ramras), his ghost pal Marquess of Queensbury (Jim Rash), and Pigeon (Norm MacDonald) an alcoholic womanizer whose ex-wife magically turned him into a pigeon who lives with Mike. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P58WJ-4PxcU The Venture Brothers Well it happened. Season six finally happened. Season 7 and 8 have been announced. I'm sure all our grandchildren will find them very funny when they're released in 2050. Has its own thread here (link may be/probably is defunct but gently caress you I'm not gonna go to TVIV and find the new VB thread to link it here). A bunch of other bullshit AS basically renewed every other show they produce though so look forward to [YOUR FAVORITE SHOW]. Hell, they haven't formally canceled Black Jesus yet, even though Charlie Murphy's dead. There's still a shitload from this list that's yet to be formally announced so maybe look forward to something from that? Also as previously mentioned, Family Guy reruns. AS killed off The Cleveland Show and King Of The Hill, but I don't think they'll drop FG unless a Fox exec forces them at gunpoint. oh and SAO 3 is totally gonna simuldub here you heard it here first.

the chimera ant arc of hunter hunter is probably the best shonen arc ever and honestly one of the best parts of any manga ever and indeed a legitimate accomplishment in the field of fiction as a whole, and i hope the dub gives all the antagonists good voices, especially pitou, who has done and will do nothing wrong in their entire life

Every Saturday night at 9:30, I bring you the finest in anime that probably won't get on Toonami. Come on down to https://cytu.be/r/goonami at about 7 for the Youtube preshow. Jormungand Her name is Koko, and she's loco. Koko Hekmatyar is a young arms dealer who's amassed quite a following. Problem is, lot of those people wanna kill her. Luckily, she's got a ragtag group of mercs by her side to help her out, including the newest recruit Jonah, a former child soldier. Jonah's gotta learn a lot about dealing with Koko, but he's definitely getting a lot of job experience. If you liked Black Lagoon, but want it to be more PUBG, this is for you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDhEtUl7U-A And starting this week, a new addition since Black Clover is just that bad! Kamen Rider Ex-Aid An epidemic has swept Japan! People everywhere are succumbing to a mysterious video game related illness! So who better for the job than Emu Hojou, a former professional gamer and new pediatric doctor? Stumbling upon the secret branch of his hospital dedicated to fighting the game sickness, Emu joins up with them, fighting off the disease as Kamen Rider Ex-Aid! Unfortunately for him, his fellow doctors don't have the best bedside manner. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7xWcS_x6Kw Waffleman_ fucked around with this message at 04:14 on Jan 5, 2018 |

Last Year in Naruto: I think we may have met Killer B briefly? Hard to remember, since much of the year was spent KNOWING PAIN. The animators were replaced by people with talent and budget for one episode that had a fight between the 9 Tails and Pinhead look like an old Chuck Jones short, and the rest was Pain destroying the Hidden Leaf (again), invoking US Nuclear Policy, and naturally relaying his Bleach tragic backstory to Our Orange Boy, who promptly forgave him for blowing up the village that used to hate him and nearly killing his future wife. After Pain killed himself for no adequately explored reason to rez all the supporting characters he just killed, the entire village hailed Naruto as a hero and would've been an excellent place to end the anime. Unfortunately, it continued. The anime has now entered THE FILLERING, in which the anime team attempt to recapture the bits of Part 1 people liked by actually having whole episode flashbacks to Part 1 to Things That Never Happened with all the anti-war/hatred themes of Shippudden. I am given to understand this pattern will continue until the heat death of the universe, so feel free to continue ignoring Naruto. You are now missing literally nothing. In related news, the Boruto anime started in Japan last year, and to everyone's surprise, is Actually Decent. Don't read the manga, though, that's still awful.

If you're like "Why the hell did they license Black Clover instead of My Hero Academia" the answer is My Hero Academia is probably too expensive for AS to license. If you like the Black Clover manga and wonder why the anime is so bad the answer is: Studio Pierrot I was hoping it wouldn't get Studio Pierrot'd, but it got Studio Pierrot'd extremely hard. Which is baffling because one of the biggest strengths of the source material is the pacing. Fabricated fucked around with this message at 02:43 on Jan 3, 2018 |

I want you all to know that people have been keeping tabs of every Black Clover episode and this poo poo cannot even keep the most forgiving nerd around for not even SEVEN episodes. We may be looking at Toonami's first Beware the Batman in that we will drop this poo poo before it can finish a single season! Also Magnus Bride, Academia and I think even Blue Exorcist season 2 are being horded by Amazon/Netflix? Toonami doesn't have much bargaining power compared to one of the biggest companies in the world.

Kinda surprised they couldn't/didn't get Blue Exorcist 2 since the first season aired on AS. But yeah, Amazon is a tough monster to fight. Also I doubt that Clover's getting shortened. BtB only got marathonned because WB was about to yank the rights away but IIRC CN had a contractual obligation to air every episode even if it was at loving 5 AM. Black Clover on the other hand is a very new anime that AS probably had to put up some good money for, and they undoubtedly have broadcast rights for at least however long it'll take to run the whole series. Unless the ratings become just abysmal, they're probably not going to do anything. TwoPair fucked around with this message at 07:41 on Jan 3, 2018 |

Magus Bride and Mob are both directly licensed by Crunchyroll and this indicates that CR is not interested in sharing those titles with television because they probably drive a lot of subscribers. Funimation probably feels the same about My Hero Academia, even though they sublicensed the dub to Hulu after it was out for a while, since Hulu only has 12 million subscribers and shares ad revenue with the provider, in addition to also having very flexible subcontracting deals. Blue Exorcist season 2's dub went to Hulu, who bought total exclusivity over it, which is why it won't be available anywhere else and it's also where it got to premiere.

It's funny how that show remains so ingrained in fans' memories considering it was only on the block for two months before being moved to the hour before Toonami. After 2003, Akins and Demarco basically lost control of the block and were reduced to producing promos and bumpers. At this point they had more influence over Adult Swim's anime choices like Fullmetal Alchemist and Samurai Champloo. Meanwhile Toonami was picking up shows like Transformers Aramada, SD Gundam Force, Pokemon, Duel Masters, but they got to make IGPX.

But even the Shiteaters of Toonami probably aren't going to take too well to Black Clover now that the general anime nerd public is poo poo talking this thing.

Wait That's the Lupin replacement? E: My guess is that they couldn't get a show negotiated in time for the block to vacate and needed something to fill it for a while.

I mean, gently caress, I own all of Space Dandy at this point, I can just go watch that poo poo whenever I want instead of staying up until 2:30 every week to see episodes I've already seen.

Could be worse. They could have brought back Bleach.

I'd welcome season one of Bleach instead of any more Black Clover.
