Okay the new Toonami commercial barely has any Black Clover.

Another piece of evidence that shows Toonami really isn't interested in it.

The commercial break is really a trap. That's 18 moments of accrued interest!

We are all made of star stuff. Very, very weird star stuff.

Also, I like how Knuckles used the whole "Explain how my powers work" to his advantage to trick Gon into accruing a lot of debt without realizing.

[up][up][up][up]Well they had Naruto scenes in there, Asta's basically a less-good Naruto...and I think I just threw up in my mouth at the idea of a less-good Naruto running around.

[up][up] Knuckle is a lot smarter than we give him credit for.

Cause that's fucking genius.

@ Lionheart: Yeah, it was a clever way of playing around with the Explaining Your Powers to the Enemy and Talking Is a Free Action tropes.

[down] You're being too logical again.

So the guy whose power consists of flying hands isn't the character named "Palm"?

Seriously Knuckle & Shoot's powers are very esoteric.

Ya gotta love how this show is willing to get weird with its powers. [tup]

[down] Actions speak volumes more than just words after all.

I'd feel more for Killua if these were actual issues he had to over come, and not just Illumi planting a needle in his head. That very much lessens the impact to me.

Ruh roh. Looks like the King is coming out.

@ LSBK: Agreed. It would've worked well enough if it was simply a psychological block Killua found the willpower to overcome in his time of need, and not a needle implanted in his brain. That just cheapened the impact of the moment for me.

@ slim: Besides Saitama, you mean?

@ slim: If you want to get out of anime, some of his more notable video game roles in recent years would be Leo (and a few others) in Fire Emblem Fates and Ryuji in Persona 5.

@ Demetrios & Rojixus: Yep, we're out of Filler Hell. Prelude for the Five Kage Summit right now.

@ Rojixus: Ninja sent by the Raikage after Killer B's capture. The dark-skinned ones, Karui and Omoi, are also Killer B's students.

Mittleman is also the voice of Harry Osbourne and McBurn among others such as Ryuji mentioned above.
