The announced it on Twitter.

All I can say is, I'm glad I chose to skip the live uploaded episodes.

Question: is anyone in here going into season 2 without having read the manga?

Attack on Titan S2 is coming to Toonami. That was fast.

Is anyone surprised?

It only got rid of Jack and Super. Which sucks a whole bag of dicks...

(raises hand)

Since Rick and Morty is on instead of Samurai Jack, I have to wonder how far the April Fools' Day "changes" will extend into the actual Toonami block.

(looks directly above)

Oh, well, that does suck, but at least it's not the entirety of the block.

It sure does. But then why show ads for the next episode of Jack last week?

@ Beary: This "holiday" is perhaps the one time of the year where I feel like everyone, cynics and pessimists included, is validated in not getting their hopes up for anything.

Then again, the new Street Fighter EX is actually legit as far as I know (R.I.P. Bloody Roar 5 ;~;), it's the fifth anniversary of the current Toonami (kinda-sorta), and we did get that surprisingly decent Zelda live-action film "teaser" from IGN back in '08, so the day's not all bad. Just mostly. tongue

@ Airman: Understandable, though I've already spoiled myself on a few current twists by accident. I doubt it'll affect me too much one way or the other, but thanks for asking in advance anyway. smile

@ Gojira ([down][down]): We are only dealing with a week delay in terms of Samurai Jack and Super (the block will resume at midnight with Kai), so it definitely could've been far worse. It think the main problem is that this is (IIRC) the first time since the original April Fools revival in 2012 that this part of the [as] programming has been affected.

While I don't mind the Rick and Morty, I kinda wish they aired it twice or something then did what they did last night with the vocal shifts and kept DBS and Sam Jack in their timeslots. Truly we got japed tonight.

But hey, Videl vs Spur... Spoop... Spah? Screw it; he's now Spooky Dooky.
