That's it for this week's Toonami. RIP Sara and RIP Absolution, you will never be forgotten.

Per DeMarco's Twitter: they were going to try and get Lupin III: The Woman Called Fujiko Mine, but there was too many boobies for the censors, so Champloo it was.

A shame, that would've been a fitting replacement. But alas, it was a Lupin III installment centered on the character who strips at a moment's notice.

[up] Oh yeah, because the director of M&H also directed Lupin III: TWCFM.

Trust me, as a huge Lupin fan, The Woman Called Fujiko Mine is not ideal for Toonami. Censors EVERY episode. Hell, the opening alone has tons of nude shots, full on chest, etc.

My thoughts exactly.

And yeah, the Absolution's been blown up, SARA's gone, and TOM's fate looks like it's up in the air at the moment...

Anyone have any wild mass guesss they wanna belt out here?

Just a heads up; One Piece's current filler arc lasts for the next 10 episodes. Well, 9. The last episode before the next arc is a Chopperman thing.

I have a message from another time...

I wish we could see Lupin III: Woman Called Fujiko Mine, but Samurai Champloo is good enough, I loved it when I was twelve, watching it on Adult Swim back in the glory days of Adult Swim's anime block.

I dunno, I guess Tom is gonna find a new ship somewhere. We can't have errors clogging up the bumps forever, now can we?

[up][up]I didn't even know we were already in One Piece filler territory. My interest in the current storyline still exists, which is something I can't say about the Naruto filler.

If boobies and sex play an intrical role in the story of The Woman Called Fujiko Mine, why the hell did Toonami try to go for it to begin with? They KNEW it had too much of that, and couldn't simply be edited out. Honestly, it just sounds like it failed from the get-go to me. And by the time they FOUND OUT that they couldn't get it, it was already too soon before January 2nd and they ran out of time to acquire something else that was newer and just as good and expensive!

[up] Probably to see if they could work with it. I mean, they've aired stuff like Hellsing Ultimate, Black Lagoon, and Deadman Wonderland.

That stuff isn't like Fujiko one. That stuff is dark and has those elements, but they're more violent than anything else. Fujiko's show meanwhile is more sex oriented big time with full blown nudity and other things.

It's more akin to HBO type things.

Better grab some popcorn; tonight's main event is going to be here shortly.

@ Joe: Besides the Intruder assimilating TOM and becoming our host until TOM 6 comes around and shoves him out of the airlock, preferably hurling that monster into a nearby star/black hole?

@ Lalalei: We can only hope. Things look rather bleak, though.

Wait a sec... This wouldn't happen to be the same desert planet that TOM 4's crew was circling during their run, is it?

A very special type of genocide that will forever lock me out of the best ending.
