With the COVID-19 pandemic causing delays in anime productions and dubbing as crews are forced to work from their homes, this has led to scheduling holes in Toonami’s schedule, forcing the block to fill the open time slots with classic shows and reruns in the interim.
As Demon Slayer goes into hiatus in two weeks (the block will be airing episode 25 of 26 this Saturday), Toonami has announced today that they will be giving Mob Psycho 100 an encore run of its first season beginning on May 9, 2020, at 1:00 a.m. Paranoia Agent, which will begin its Toonami run this upcoming Saturday, will move to 12:30 a.m.
Mob Psycho 100 previously aired its first season on Toonami from Oct. 27, 2018, to Feb. 2, 2019. A second season of the franchise was released last year and is presently available to stream on Crunchyroll and FunimationNow. However, Toonami hasn’t commented if a premiere of the second season will follow this encore run.
