“What is this? Hmm, squishy…”
– Kirito, Sword Art Online (Episode 08)
“Time for the show that’s going to “kill Toonami”, [Sword Art Online].”
“Alright, #SwordArtOnline is back. Positive comments now. *boobs in Kirito’s face* OH FUCK YOU SHOW!!!”
The Toonami Trending Rundown for September 21-22, 2013. 5 years since Toonami’s original cancellation, the block is alive and well, divided opinions of SAO aside, as we’ve got ourselves yet another perfect night as Toonami trended throughout the brunt of the night as well as every show getting into both the US and Worldwide trending lists. But perhaps the biggest trend of the night, Kirito trended worldwide as Asuna collided into him and he got to…dare I say, experience how squishy a lady’s mammaries are. Lucky him. Though, it does make me wonder, why did Kirito take so long to realize it?
Great news for those that aren’t at home when Toonami is on, [adult swim] now livestreams via the [as] video website and the [as] phone app. It also offers both east and west coast feeds, so for any west coasters that are unfortunate enough to not have access to the east coast feed to help us trend, well now you do. It should be noted that you’ll need to have a qualifying provider to use the feed, so as the various TV promos would say, check your local listings. Regardless, this increases your ability to watch Toonami and hopefully will reflect in future trending rundowns.
Tune in next week as One Piece begins the Foxy’s Return arc, among the other great moments from the other shows. Other than that, see you next week for another round of the better cartoon show.
Legend: The number next to the listed trend represents the highest it trended on the list (not counting the promoted trend), judging only by the images placed in the rundown.
