Lineup changes! Tomorrow, Toonami will run from 11:30-5:30, and from next week on, it will run from 11:30-5:00 for the forseeable future. What this means for us is things will be half an hour earlier. So Goonami will probably be half an hour earlier as well.

12:00 – Naruto: Shippuden
12:30 – Inuyasha the Final Act
01:00 – One Piece
01:30 – Gurren Lagann
02:00 – Deadman Wonderland
02:30 – Bleach
03:00 – Space Dandy
03:30 – Cowboy Bebop
04:00 – Ghost in the Shell
04:30 – IGPX
05:00 – Samurai Jack

Next Week:

11:30 – DBZ Kai
12:00 – Naruto: Shippuden
12:30 – Inuyasha the Final Act
01:00 – One Piece

Demarco confirmed that this is due to rating, but that they aren't going anywhere. Also Kill la Kill is still set to air, but its actual airing time is TBD.

Well I guess that means so long IGPX and Samurai Jack then.

Rediculous that they're still sticking Bleach in there though. Think it'd be more cost efficient to put a show they own there instead of Bleach reruns but :shrug:.

LAST WEEK ON TOONAMI

DBZ Kai: After three weeks, Goku succeeds in catching Bubbles. He is then issued his second challenge, to hit Gregory, the flying grasshopper, with a large mallet. After two weeks of trying, Goku succeeds and fully masters the planet's gravity in the process. King Kai then proceeds to teach Goku his signature technique: the Kaio-ken. On Earth, Gohan's training with Piccolo comes to a close, while the rest of the Z Fighters finish their training with Kami and go their separate ways.

One Piece: As Spandam is shaken by the Strawhats' decalaration of war, Franky reveals that he had the blueprints of the weapon Pluton hidden in his body, kept by him and the previous shipwrights as a countermeasure against another weapon revived by the World Government. Franky decides to gamble on the Strawhats' resolve and burn the blueprints right in front of Spandam. When the Franky Family reveals that they're there too, Franky gets distracted and is shoved off the balcony by Spandam. Kokoro launches Rocketman up the half-lowered drawbridge as the Strawhats jump on, hitting Franky and crashing into the Tower of Law.

Gurren Lagann: As the Anti-Spirals attack, Simon searches for Nia, who reveals that she was chosen as the Anti-Spirals' messenger through a fluke of genetics. Meanwhile, Rossiu completes work on his secret project, a biocomputer powered by Lordegenome's head.

LAST WEEK ON GOONAMI

Slayers Next: The gang visit the two sorcerers in jail, who surmise that the slimes were summoned by the previous head of the Sorceror's guild, Halciform, who was studying immortality. Well, it turns out dude's a lich who made a contract with a Mazoku to keep his girlfriend alive and we gotta get his pledge stone. When his pledge stone is destroyed, his girlfriend is revived and begs for death, which he gives to the both of them. Then Martina comes along, falls in love with Goury, and curses Lina's poo poo.

The Hero Yoshihiko: Yoshihiko becomes an idol and we kick some animal people's asses.

This week on Slayers Next, you can't make an omelet without slaying a few dragons.

This week on Yoshihiko, Hisa's adventures and the Demon King's Castle.

Edit: By the way, end of the month, so the Toonami Q&A is tomorrow.

i kinda needed to get it in now before it aired since i will pretty much have nothing to say once it starts

actually, one final thought: if KLK isn't the Big Acquisition that they put into the 2330 slot to pull viewers, what they hell could they get that would fill it

no, i mean like, what could they get in 2015 that would be fresh & exciting enough to pull viewers but wouldn't have too much objectionable content to bar it from being shown before midnight

like, Space Dandy started 2014 in that slot because it was the New, Exciting, World Premier Hotness and they wanted everybody to see it
then they got Attack on Titan, which was the New, Exciting Hotness that Everybody and Their Mother had been clamoring for
then both of those shows finished their runs and went into repeats, but they didn't have anything Brand loving New to replace them in the 2330 slot, so they kept AoT

now they've just gotten KLK, which was another New, Exciting Hotness that Everybody and Their Mother has been clamoring for literally since last year
but they're not putting it into the pre-midnight slot, likely because it's too skeevy to show then
so instead we get DBZK, which is I think several years old already, not to mention it's already been running on the block since November

so what would/could they get in 2015 that would be

A)Relatively recent/new
B)Unobjectionable for airing at 2330

Yeah, it's probably gonna stay DBZ, which is honestly a better fit for that slot because it's something everyone can enjoy.

Also, the pre-Toonami lineup has changed for the next two weeks:

8-9:30 PM no changes
9:30 Rick and Morty
10:00 Robot Chicken
10:30 Family Guy
11:00 American Dad

Is that really much of a problem? I wouldn't think KLK would need much editing to be any worse then anything else shown on Toonami or Adult Swim, outside of a particular scene or two.
