On the topic of Super Mutant Magic Academy, it's weird because Toonami only airs comedy cartoons when they are anime (Pop Team Epic) or anime parodies (Ballmasterz, Gemetsu Machu Picchu).

Still pondering if they should have went with Tokyo Revengers or Wind Breaker for delinquent anime. Wind Breaker has way better animation and fight scenes, but the plot is far less interesting than the time travel mystery aspect of Tokyo Revengers. Wind Breaker can go like 5 episodes without a...

Okay, so what we get from this is that Kim Manning is Adult Swim's anime showrunner again? Kinda surprised we aren't getting more dialogue heavy drama anime if she's really in charge again. Then again, she aired shonen too in her era like Inuyasha and Bleach. Also, we are getting more...

I think this is the second time Genndy has worked on a pre-established IP (Clone Wars being the first). Genndy Wars was beloved, so I think he will do well with this IP.

Miami Heat get Giannis, Giannis Antetokounmpo trade: Heat land Bucks star in massive blockbuster, Celtics miss out. Not too surprising considering the Heat are one of only two teams (the Celtics being the other) to have multiple finals appearances this decade. Can the Knicks next season get past...

No Mary Elizabeth McGlynn or Richard Epcar? Bummer, but at least this cast looks to be well known LA based VAs rather than outsourced to that cheap studio that Amazon often uses. At least Amazon decided that this show deserves more than a cheapie dub.

Hulu looks like they are really slow with the whole dubbing thing with the Undead Unluck winter special getting a dub in July of all times. They waited until season 2 of Mission Yozakura Family to finish before getting its dub up. Seems like the dub for Tokyo Revengers season 4 might be December...

Wow, Black Clover doesn't get a first episode preview in multiple theaters like Bleach and all the other anime doing special theatrical screenings?

The so-called late 2000s "dark age" gave us Batman: The Brave and the Bold and Star Wars: The Clone Wars, two of the greatest Cartoon Network shows ever. I still stand by my belief that Cartoon Network died with the action cartoon purge of the early 2010s.

The thing is that Crunchyroll has long surpassed Toonami as the home for anime. Witch Hat Atelier, the latest seasons of Re:Zero and That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime, and the final season of Dr. Stone (the latter a show yanked away from Toonami), have all kicked Rooster Fighter's butt in...

I'm hoping that the dub doesn't take a year to come out like season 3. It seems like the Toonami airing re-ignited interest in the franchise after Hulu seemingly buried interest. Most fans and even the voice cast themselves assumed the dub was cancelled when it took a year to come out. Hoping...

My thoughts on Spring 2026. It's a very close two horse race between Witch Hat Atelier and the newest Re:Zero season. Witch Hat Atelier is far and away the best new franchise to come out. The new shonen franchises don't seem like they are catching on that well. Daemons of the Shadow Realm had an...

Just like most of this series, it's the same script, Spurs lead most of the game but poop the bed in the fourth quarter. Lots of flagrants. Brunson played his superhero game with 45 points and is definitely winning finals MVP. This finals was a different story than last year's dramatic 7 game...

If they did have access to those shows earlier in the year, surely they would have been chosen over years old seasons of Tokyo Revengers and Blue Lock. I think we're probably in for half decade old cheapies as the best case scenario, but considering there are Toonami fans looking for lesser...

I'd think they'd try to stick the final Bleach cour on the schedule sometime this year. There might be a "have to be this much behind Hulu" rule. Seems like that is the only newish anime coming as this year we got shows two shows from several years ago (Tokyo Revengers and Blue Lock) aside from...
