Despite the fact that the Toonami lineup is shrinking, the original series in development sound so promising that I kind of don’t care. Chief among those, Uzumaki from Junji Ito who was featured in a recent clip where he got to talk a little bit about the development of the four-part anime series which is slated to premiere later this year with no delays coming from COVID-19 according to Toonami producer Jason DeMarco. The series is being produced by Production IG and will be shown entirely in black and white.

No word on a premiere date for Uzumaki. However, one programming note for this upcoming Saturday Night’s Toonami lineup. Adult Swim has announced that since episode 116 of Black Clover cut-off early while in broadcast, the end credits will instead re-air before episode 117 airs. Of course, this is all moot, because both episodes have been streaming on Funimation for a while now and you can clip the links to get their reviews.

 

 


 

After a month-long hiatus from it’s season three premiere, a new episode of Marvel’s Spider-Man is set to premiere this Sunday Night @ 9 pm ET/PT.

In the episode entitled Amazing Friends”, when Toddler Groot lands on Earth to deliver an urgent warning, Spider-Man must decode the message and keep him out of the evil clutches of A.I.M. and Baron Mordo.
