I'm sure there is a lot more going on as well, but at the very least making it easier and faster to getting crunchy shows on toonami should have been the main focus :P

it's been a few months so we should have seen some fruit from that by now.

We're still waiting on sao's replacement to be announced which has to be any day at this point, even if it's just a block reduction.

Why would they move the block back if it was just going to shrink 2 weeks later.

Ya know, at some point we became a society that allowed the History Channel to make 14 seasons of Ancient Aliens.

14 seasons folks.

Take with a grain of salt but there's been speculation that one of the shows that fell through was Mob Psycho S2. Hope that's not the case

Knowing that, I get the impression that Food Wars was a sudden, last minute replacement.
Very likely, and it could be the same for SAO's replacement since we're in a similar situation with that

Wow, and I thought 9 seasons of "Finding Bigfoot" was bad. 9 seasons of trying to find something that doesn't exist.

On a similar note, I learned the other day that House Hunters somehow has 173 seasons, and is still going.

Everyone with a Shonen Jump sub, they added Tokyo Ghoul to the vault. All 143 chapters of the original and the first 11 volumes of TG:re. You can now see how Pierrot messed up.

So that Tokyo Ghoul 3rd season or whatever it is, does it just pretend the anime-only stuff didnt exist?

BLACK CLOVER CHARACTER OF THE DAY: Asta

He's the main character. In a world where magic is everything, Asta didn't get any. He gets Anti Magic from a Black Clover Grimoire instead...which is pretty damn good in a world where...magic is everything. His other powers include having a harem, never giving up, and muscles, lots and lots of muscles.

Tokyo Ghoul seems pretty bland and uninteresting even without the bad anime adaptation

Oh wow, I got an email for the San Diego Comic Con Adult Swim event and Toonami is not listed there. :O

Would be massively disappointing if true. :/

The entire reason I held off from watching was due to waiting for a dub premiere on Toonami, given how solid the season 1 dub was.

I'd imagine tomorrow or Friday are the last days we could reasonably expect a show to replace SAO instead of there being a rerun or block contraction.

Mob Psycho 100 was the closest I think I've seen between announcement and block premier and that was the Friday a week before it was run IIRC.
