MICHIKO AND HATCHIN COMING JUNE 20

Wikipedia posted:

After escaping from prison, the criminal Michiko rescues her apparent daughter Hana (who she nicknamed Hatchin), in the process saving her from her foster family's abuse. The two are about as opposite as they come, but their fates become intertwined through the connection of a man from both their pasts. On the run from the police and Hatchin's abusive foster parents, the unlikely duo set out to find this man and ultimately discover their freedom.

The story takes place in a fictional country with cultural traces from South American countries, mostly from Brazil.

when they introduce new bad guys, one of them rapes and kills the wife and daughter of a previous bad guy just to show how much more bad they are lol

To be fair those kind of edgy shows have been great on Toonami like Black Lagoon, Hellsing, Deadman Wonderland

Ah just like comic books where the writer wants to be treated "seriously"

They're 2 for 3.

And it's far more than just comic books. Hell, rape may as well be a signifier of bad guy power levels in poo poo like ASoIaF

Maybe when SAO ends.

Edit: If it makes people feel any better, the director of Michiko and Hatchin only has one other series direction credit under her belt.

It's Lupin III: The Woman Named Fujiko Mine.

We are in good hands.

She also did work on Goonami favorites Redline and Panty & Stocking. She directed Catfight Club!

Yeah apparently its a loving awful show, but its a good fit for Toonami since a lot of their fanbase loves awful poo poo (not my words, but Jesuotaku's who admittedly may not have the best taste since she dislikes the fact that MCU films have all this world building and lore and also loves KLK and thinks it better than TTGL, still a nice person though :))

Those are right words so I'm not sure why you're shifting credit. The Toonami fanbase really does lap up some awful stuff, or at the very least there's a vocal as hell segment that does.

Michiko and Hatchin seems interesting, but from what I've heard isn't the most chock-full of action. Which is not in and of itself a bad thing, mind.

Honestly it's apparent lack of action is why I'm surprised Toonami picked it up.

I hope it's good. It'd be nice to watch something good on Toonami again :shobon:
