Official Toonami Thread 2.0 - Plus Ultra!

So the Promised Neverland has been getting really good. The pyschological cat and mouse game reminds me a lot of Death Note. Really curious to see how they are going to deal with the traitor next week.

Also looks like we have to big events happening next week…All Might vs All For One and the I’m pretty sure Ultra Instinct is next episode.

If you have never watched a episode of MHA, the next one is like second or third I would recommend to watch. Easily All Might’s best in the franchise.

So this might not necessarily be Toonami since it hasnt been announced for it yet…but considering its Genndy I figured people might be interested

Its no Korgoth, but damn it looks like it could be the start of adult swim throwing substantial money into original action animation on its own

so yeah that’s cool.

Random stuff:
Was catching up on the stuff I recorded on DVR and missed that Fire Force started last night. Been seeing clips of the show and also hearing things about it so I’m looking forward to watching it.

Atrack on Titan season 3 part 2 has been amazing. So much info last week to take in. Haven’t watched last night’s ep yet.

Toonami picking up gen:lock is a pretty big win for RT. I thought the show was really good with a ton of potential so should be nice to give others a chance to watch it.

The Promised Neverland season 1 was really good the wait for season 2 in 2020 is going to be tough.

Stolen from StuartHayden in the manga and Anime thread

I’ve only read one of Junji Ito’s works that Riotingsoul introduced me too and it’s was on some Stephen King shit. Think my wife said the one involving the people holes gave her nightmares.

Uzumaki is great. It’s one of the first manga’s I bought when I got back into anime/manga around 2011 or so. Shits bonkers.

Read a synopsis and it sounds crazy. Looking forward to it.

I’ve been enjoying Food Wars and thought the orgasms and fan service was gonna turn my wife ofd to it but she loves the show. Had to start watching it in Japanese since she didnt want to wait. I’m still watching the English with it so far the only real issue I have with the english version is the VA for Erina’s choice for how she is portraying her. She needs to feel a bit more royal and regal than valley girl…I get what she’s trying to do but it kind of misses the character a bit. Needs to be more Karin Kanzuki like.

Dr.Stone has been really interesting. Like the science aspect that they have going.

With the hype surrounding Demon Slayer I think its only a matter of time before they scoop it up.

Also throwing this out there, Primal may not be on Toonami but I’m highly recommending people watch it if they like animation at all. I love it when people are able to tell a story without words and Genndy and his crew are doing an amazing job.

They have been showing it each night for the past 4 days (another ep is coming on tonight). Im 2 eps behind right now and the first ep is ROUGH. Combat is both visceral with some slight over the top elements (you will know what I mean when you watch it)

According to the guide they seem to be reairing the Primal series on AS before Toonami on Saturdays starting with the first episode. Got my DVR ready.

Let me know what you think when you watch it cause what I’ve seen so far from the first 2 eps has been great. Gonna try to watch the next 3 when I get home.

holy crap Primal is on right now and it’s even better than what I was expecting. :open_mouth::fire:

Long live Lord Genndy T and the incredible shows he brings to us.

It’s funny watching his work. It’s like he slowly descended into madness. Gave us Dexters Lab, then samurai jack, the clone wars mini-series, then brought back samurai jack making it super dark, and now Primal which is just fucking brutal.

After watching everything again (star wars clone Wars, samurai Jack) Genndy is my pic for an animated Metroid series

ohoooo and tonight appears to be an encore of that grand finale on DB Super, I see… it’s so good they had to show it twice, I guess.

hmm…nah this looks like it’s 2 episodes back though since Vegeta is still there.
