Toonami |JulAug19| did that fairy just orgasm?

There's a lot of old school stuff, like Escaflowne, that they can grab and that would do well. It might finally be the time to go back to stuff that they didn't get in the mid-2000's. There's also stuff like Ushio and Tora, which is freaking custom made for the block, that they could still pick up.
Things I remember about Beware The Batman.
1. It was bad. Just...kinda all around bad. There's not really anything in the show I would point to and say it's done well.
2. I don't know what Anarky is like in the comics, but boy, he has to be more interesting there. At some point, the showrunners must have realized he sucked in the show, so they brought in Deathstroke. Either that, or they hoped Deathstroke would sell toys.
3. Magpie was in it, and she looked like Lady Gaga. Also she kicked Batman's ass a lot.
Yeah, it can help set up a good mystery if done right. How did X character end up in Y situation.
That's fair.

Basically the only shows close to guarantees the block has going forward are the next Dragon Ball, the second season of Mob Psycho, SAO Alicization 2, and Jim Jam Part V. They've also almost completely distanced themselves from repeats besides AoT, which has been one of the more consistent shows ratings wise. The block right now is 5 straight hours of broadcast premieres.
Meanwhile they have seven shows in development but none of them far enough into production to even expect for 2020 with our current knowledge.
Why would they put old shows on the block, its clear theyve moved in a direction that doesnt support old stuff, if it did then Outlaw Star would have had a similar old age replacement at somepoint.
Nagging things like Kimetsu no Yaiba (Demon Slayer) months early, shows with only three week lead time with engsubs like Fire Force and BLack Clover, honestly strongly suggests and highly implies what the direction of toonami is. I fully expected CR will get more of its shows like Rise of the Shield Hero onto the block, and OPM s2 is a shoe in when Viz gets that thing together.

BLACK CLOVER CHARACTER OF THE DAY: Noelle Silva
Member of the Black Bulls, specializes in water magic. Had no control over her vast magical powers as a youth which is why no other group would take her, but it proved to be something of a mental block with her worrying about hurting others. The fairly generic Tsundere who is madly in love with the main character that ignores her for his childhood love interest...who has no interest in him. Not above throwing around an insult to commoners she's generally still one of the few noble characters who isn't outright evil. She's cool in my book for calling Pasta Salad Dorksta.

This is kinda why I expect them to dip into the recent past in order to get by. Stuff people might have seen, but has never been on TV before.
The Prince of all jobbers
Makes sense. His entire planet jobbed to Freiza, after all. :)
Man, look at him job like he's been doing it his whole life. Oh, wait...HE HAS!The Prince of all jobbers
They didn't even tell us the name of the main character. Or at least, I don't remember them saying it.
I assume they did but fuck if I can actually remember what it is
Expecting Vegeta to win against the main villain is almost as foolish as expecting Ash to win a Pokemon League.
I missed the block on Saturday because of Triplemania and Evo watching, and I only managed to watch Boruto yesterday in the downtime between SF5 and Tekken. That said, the episode through me for a fucking loop, and I was wondering if I was on drugs or something
-"hey, the hostages are saved, so now that it's just PREVENTING A SUICIDE BOMBING it's ok for you children to take care of"
-"something something game workers need to unionize or something"
-"boy, you are a bad terrorist"
What a fucking WERID episode of a show that from everything we have seen up to now seems more like it was designed to be enjoyed by 10 year olds

Dragon Ball is one of the only shows where I see people get mad that the main character is going to beat the main villain. I blame Gohan.
That's just saving a villain for later. That's not giving one of the other Straw Hats the last blow lol
I wouldn't mind that if the said character was actually good.
it's because the show is generally just one on one fights, with the other characters just standing around
that's why the best fight in Z is the Vegeta fight on Earth, because it took Goku, Gohan, Krillin and Yajirobe to bring him down
not to mention the actual one on one being hype as hell and not overly long either
Manga-wise the Freeza fight is better. The anime killed the pacing when it adapted it, and it's way shorter in the actual manga.
Not even Kai could remedy everything about it.

it made them type in different letters to be able to download their computer games
which makes it the worst thing to happen to gaming or something, i guess
