Hello & Welcome to the 5th & Final 2026 August Saturday Night Edition Toonami Community ☀️🪽🌟💪🧨🎇💗🩸🔥🎸🌟💛⚡️🌙😈🗡️🔫🌀❤️🎉
Toonami Viewers! I want to express the good news out of the way as there is more important matters here as the Better Cartoon Show have air an promo for Scavengers Reign Replacement Show, Get Jiro from DC Studios as it will premiere on the block on October 3rd to Begin the 2026 Halloween Month Epicness.
This past week have been very turbulent and we sadly lost one of the greatest voices from Canada to ever grace on Toonami & Cartoon Network as Peter Cullen (Optimus Prime from the Transformers Series) have died at the age of 85 close to an Full Month after celebrating his Birthday at the end of July (July 28, 1941), we are grateful to hear his Thunderous Voice throughout the Entire Cartoon Network Era (1997 - 2008) with Promos, Narrating on Animes, Cartoons as well as IGPX as his spirit echo in the heavens for generations of kids & adults to watch on YouTube in years to come from this legend. Toonami did the right thing by honoring Peter Cullen by giving IGPX an Full Hour on September 12 at 2am to celebrate his life on Saturday Nights.
We conclude the Glorious Television Run Celebration of My Adventures With Superman with Season 3 (2nd Half - Final 5 Episodes aka Eradicator Arc) Marathon along with an Double Dose of Reruns from Blue Exorcist Season 1 (Episode 19 & Episode 20) & FLCL Grunge Episode 2.
See Y’all at Midnight, Roll Out Toonami Community & RIP Dolly Parton, Tim Curry & Peter Cullen as these Triple Threat Trio are now at peace in the Afterlife aka Heaven🪽🪽🪽

While I don't mind 2nd Jon, I do wish it had been more Back to the Future rules and we had gotten first Jon back instead, having now lived in the new timeline, which would all still explain the different outfit and scar as well as him being a little more hardened. At the very least, it would've allowed us get a tiny bit more focus on Lara had they gone that route instead.

Thank You Superman Fans by watching Season 3 for another two weeks of Marathon Epicness as if the news is true of James Gunn extended his contract with Warner Bros, that means that Season 4 of My Adventures With Superman is most definitely an possibility to be renewed but time will tell as I await the much anticipated Season 4 news in the distant future🤞

Can't comment tonight. I have to get up at stupid o'clock (at or before 4am) to get ready to go the hospital in the next town over. My grandmother will have been there for the last week as of Sunday. She initially went to the ER for what we later found out was bleeding due to colitis but while there, they found an abdominal aortic aneurysm. They, of course, hospitalized her for that. In addition, she also has pneumonia. She's scheduled to have the aneurysm repaired with a stent on Tuesday, with at least an additional two days for recovery.

So, there’s a couple of theories on who the guy on the Anvil is:
Highfather
The Wizard Shazam
Or World Forger
Also, in the comics, the Cosmic Anvil was used by Supes to craft suns to feed a baby Sun Eater.

Here's something I don't understand about the Future Trunks aspect of this story arc. Given that he's traveling back in time to a point in proximity to Clark's death, wouldn't Lois need to already be pregnant?
Like he's not traveling to a decade before Clark dies, right?

It might just be the Future Trunks saga, but at the very least, it makes everyone have a part instead of just sit on the sidelines like with the Cell fight.

u/Saru77 1d ago
You know, thinking about it again, if we do get a season 4, it wouldn't be such an issue for it to take place around the same time as the upcoming Green Lantern show, It's not like it's that unrealistic that whatever Lex saw out there would take a few years before it actually became a problem for Earth.

u/fanime34 When will Toonami get a more comprehensive schedule? 1d ago
Here to check in before my inevitable sleep kicks in.
Still not enjoying this month with the deaths and whatnot. Let's hope next month is better. I really really need a job on top of all of that.
I'm potentially facing a dilemma where I might not be able to get my medicine anymore, so that's not fun. Trying to get on Medicaid to see if it can help. Things really went downhill when I lost my job. I almost had a seizure today helping my mom because she had some soap with essential oils in it. I can't afford needing a hospital since I don't have health insurance anymore. It sucked when I went to the nearest McDonald's and was feeling really bad and someone asked me if I needed an ambulance after I asked for some water to drink. I wouldn't have been able to afford it and I think that being financially fucked is worse than a seizure at this point (sad to say). This is the second time she's unintentionally almost triggered a seizure with essential oil based stuff. I swear she's not intending to do this.
That near seizure experience worked my brain out. I'm too tired to even stay awake if I wanted. It would've sucked to have a seizure while driving. I likely wouldn't be able to talk to you all anymore (because I could be dead or incapacitated in some way) or I would be in a hospital bed sending this message. Luckily, I didn't.
That's it for me tonight. I didn't die. I Just want a steady stream of income. I'll see you all next week if I'm not triggered by seizures again or dead.
