Dragon Ball Super: October 5
My Hero Academia (Season 3 rerun): November 2
Lupin the Third: Part 5: November 30
Fire Force: January 11, 2020
Dr. Stone: February 8, 2020
Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba: ??
Food Wars: Shokugeki no Soma (Thru Season 3): September 5, 2020
Naruto Shippuden: March 2, 2024
Black Clover: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Boruto: Naruto Next Generations: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Ignores Fire Force and Dr. Stone.
"But TOONAMI and Funimation are feuding! Who knows if S4 will even happen!"
It is probably split cour so I wouldn't count on it running 50 episodes straight.
I wonder if aniplex can pull of a same day release of https://myanimelist.net/anime/39597/Sword_Art_Online__Alicization_-_War_of_Underworld (as putting it near the end of the 10-12 broadcast would make it 10-13 and the same day the first episode airs in Japan)
Either way I would expect that to be one of the replacements (or at least just a few weeks late) I wonder what the other will be.

Guess Genlock's replacement won't be ready by then? But then why do a marathon that still has a new episode starting. Not to mention now that's two shows ending the same night.
Also notice how two of those characters in the marathon art aren't even in the arc.

DBS 130's gonna kill this thread, cannot wait
If Dr. Stone keeps getting better I may have to tear into the manga

quick somebody tie up the editors and stuff them in a broom closet,
it would be a shame too, the entire episode is basically nothing but sakuga
All in favor of gathering early for a group-watch of the sub on Crunchyroll say I
(Otherwise I'm sure some of us will be posting clips of the best moments for y'all to enjoy fully)

I still think the true test to recover most of the goodwill from the fans is making a brand new mainline Final Fantasy without a ton of development issues and a messy narrative.
They already did that with Shadowbringers, which is the best FF game
On god, I'm happy to have another marathon. I can't remember the last time Toonami had one this year.
Amen!
I meant "single-player mainline" FF games. >.>
No joke, this is the first marathon of 2019. The last two were the end of year ones, with Super for Dec. 22nd & Boruto for the 29th.
Weird how they didn't do their normal Labor Day one & instead waited for the end of the month. Doubt we'll have a halloween one since it's on a Thursday & that's before Toonami on Nov. 2nd.
Final Fantasy 15 is a great game and sold extremely well
Final Fantasy 14 ARR is considered to be one of the best games in the series and continues to do crazy numbers
The same way the last jedi didn't kill star wars, final fantasy 13/15 didn't kill final fantasy.
No one is saying those games are bad, we are talking about goodwill and fans perception.
Like, look at the sheer scale of awe and optimism people are having with those FF7 Remake trailers(some people are already past the fact that is just a fraction of the story), you probably won't see much of that with FFXVI for example.
Also, as someone who really enjoyed FFXV, that game was an awful narrative mess, specially at launch. And that is even more frustrating as someone who loved the cast because you could definetly tell by the amount of rushed lore, locations and plot points how much more of a big deal was that game meant to be.
I really loved the bros dynamic, and Ardyn is one of the most memorable villains I seen in a FF game in quite a while(Darin de Paul did such a great job with that performance), so it just make it much more frustrating to see the potential of what could have been.
That's why I honestly think Square really needs to kill it with the next mainline FF, even moreso than with the FF7R (although the fact that it looks so good it's definetly a great start).
And people will bitch about ff7r (some already are) for
Being episodic
Padding the game with filler to justify the episodic format
Being an action rpg
"Betraying" the spirit of the original with some minor changes
Some of these complaints are already happening, if ff15 hadn't set the stage for these games to be action rpgs going forward people would be angry

Exactly how I feel about FFXV. It's one of the most frustrating games I've ever played because it had the potential to be truly great. But it was so damn rushed that the entire game just kinda collapsed under its own weight. I still ended up loving the main cast despite the mess of a game they were stuck in and it's got some incredible music.
and that weird assassin's creed tie-in dlc thingy was actually really good but don't tell anyone i said that ok i really don't want to lose my gaming license again.
One Punch man S2 coming october 12th
i got excited before i remembered the animation isn't going to be as good
I got excited then I remembered I hate one punch man so hopefully they put later in the line up
What happens when you become your own meme about okayness.
PING PONG THE ANIMATION COMING OCTOBER 12th ONLY TOONAMI.
I'm guessing because it doesn't have the padding the manga has
Yep. it basically focuses on garou himself the entire time. No weird detours. They really lost the plot in the manga version.
Wow, I legit did not know this. I learned something pretty cool today!
It's odd that we're still waiting for Mob S2, but has it been long enough for JoJo's Part 5? We haven't heard anything on that front
Well, might be sometime next year considering the last episode aired at the end of July, and Viz was still finishing up the Part 4 dub while the final episodes were airing. Heck, the 2nd half of Part 4 still isn't out on Blu-ray. We got super lucky with Parts 3 & 4.
