Food Wars is being removed from Toonami starting this week. Demarco has stated they do plan to get the rest later on, if possible. Thank our good partner Crunchyroll for sitting on the rights like they did with Mob.
Paranoia Agent is replacing Food Wars at 1am. Yes, a 17 year old ASA bomb is going to air right in the middle of the block starting this Saturday.
Funimation has set up a special dub from home program for My Hero Academia. They have already recorded one episode, so we can assume the rest should be on track. The status of Black Clover’s dub is still unknown, however Toonami has ample backlog of its episodes for the time being.
Last week we had a Kai marathon that did abysmal, this week we return to somewhat normal, with another cut taking us down to a meager 3 hours and 12a start time. Interestingly, things jumped slightly above where they were two weeks ago. We can see that people in quarantine are excited for Toonami to come on so long as it isn’t wasting their time with reruns. We also see that despite starting even later, the block’s audience moves with it.
12:00a My Hero Academia 637 0.30
12:30a Demon Slayer 509 0.26
1:00a Food Wars 451 0.25
1:30a Black Clover 414 0.14
2:00a Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure: Golden Wind 346 0.20
Great show, but not a chance in hell is such a large request for the block. Demarco has been shilling the show a lot since it started. Would be cool if we got it but I don’t think it even has a dub scheduled
Dylan Walker
I know nothing of this show but that girl looks like a best.
Leo Brown
In the same list he claimed that EVERY generic seasonal shonen tops the request list year round. Toonamitards have no taste and there’s no way they are requesting something actually good
Logan Watson
So we should be getting news on the new show soon. What do you think it's going to be? Will it be good or another disappointment like PA?
>Do you believe that? Yes, if it's a new FoTM then I'm sure people are requesting it.
all the anime are being delayed in japan so be glad we don't have any super close simulcasts
Ayden Bennett
Pretty much every show that ends up being popular gets requested. Not that surprising really, but I doubt we'll get it.
James Wilson
>new show Haha
Daniel Russell
I'm gonna say 70% chance of disappointment.
Justin Bennett
Eizouken is far from popular. It’s a niche Yas Forums tier show and there’s no way Toonami fans are requesting it enough to be that high on the list
Connor Evans
That’s actually wrong. They have their original shows planned through 2023. That doesn’t mean they have enough to keep the block alive till then
Chase Richardson
I don’t dislike PA but I hate how it’s being forced on us by putting it right in the middle. They could have at least slid the premier shows up 30 mins
The way they were talking at the Q&A it sounds like Demon Slayer will just be rerunning
Camden Kelly
>niche It was actually pretty popular with normalfags.
Juan Rodriguez
>the block is fine bros >just ignore that sliced budget and pathetic pickups we are fine! >if we fall below 3 hours we will make it work! He is the lying king
Zachary Cruz
Unless it was MHA popular then it wasn’t topping Demarco’s inbox requests
Anyone catch the supposedly rare space ghost with Conan O'Brien and Ant last night?
John Hernandez
this just confirms for me that the people dumping requests on him dont actually watch the block
Jace Williams
that might be the breaking point to a revolt >half the block cut in only a few months >17 year old rerun right in the middle of the block >still showing zombie shippuden episodes rerunning a show that just ended would be worse than another helping of FLCL. at least thats been off the air for a few months

How are Dragontards coping after being blown out THIS hard?

It was a vague answer, he said the block was gonna stay how it currently is for the foreseeable future. That’s might mean Demon Slayer reruns or it might mean the 3 hour length. Hard to say. I imagine they are sitting on the schedule awaiting the next MHA episode, assuming Funi gets it done in time
they only show up for dragon ball, so they probably aint here
Landon Martinez
I have a feeling that despite his bad rep, Lazzo was actually protecting the block and allowing it flourish. The time Toonami started going downhill lines up exactly with him leaving and Crawford taking full control
Bentley Davis
