This is probably what happened, good chance that having their VA's record at home and same with the sound/mixing people really slows them down a bit and waiting to do a new batch of episodes before putting back on TV.

Toonami to Start Showing SSSS.Gridman Anime in January 2021

The staff of Adult Swim's Toonami programming block announced during a Toonami Pre-Flight livestream on Sunday that the block will start running Studio Trigger and Tsuburaya Productions' SSSS.Gridman anime in January 2021.

The 12-episode SSSS.Gridman anime premiered in October 2018. The anime was a collaboration between the anime studio Trigger and Tsuburaya Productions — the creator of the Ultraman franchise and the original 1993-1994 live-action tokusatsu (special-effects) series Denkō Chōjin Gridman. Crunchyroll and Funimation streamed the anime as it aired, and Funimation also streamed an English dub for the anime

In last night's episode of SAO I found the scene where Sinon meets Alice to be really touching. I'm biased though cause I love the character of Sinon and Michelle Ruff.

**Outlaw** · 2020-11-27 22:57

No new Toonami this week. They are doing a Primal marathon with something special thrown in..

It's something that confused me, too. It's like, "Who are they and why should we be caring so much?" Though, to answer the question, I think Ordinal Scale is where they got fleshed out.

Just looked at the wiki for the movie, and yeah thats what happened, I was so confused since yeah they wanted us to care and as being an anime only watcher I had no idea who they were.

Here's my problem with this arc right now. The girls are literally God-tier right now and nobody should be able to lay a finger on them. Yet those noob red armored players are still able to hurt them.

I knew something felt off. And yeah you're right. Asuna was slaughtering them left and right early on now they're getting wrecked.

**arus2001** · 2020-12-14 12:41

There's definitely a disconnect in ability, but I also feel that's been a consistent issue from the author relative to game mechanics, player power levels, what makes a boss/raid, and so on. From a code administrative view, there should have been tiers of admin accounts with various degrees of read/write privileges within the world, but for whatever reason, Asuna's god account is basically what I'd call a low-level Builder character capable of only some modest terraforming. It just goes downhill from there for the other girls.

End of the day, I don't hate SAO like some people are prone to, but I can't deny a lot of shit could've been handled better throughout the series or not done at all. This arc has been a little better about fights being more than just some exposition and a one-shot attack, but maybe I'm just a snob when it comes to wanting good fights.

**Corrderio** · 2020-12-14 14:05

I wouldn't say I hate SOA. I think the idea is good but the characters just seem bleh

**Outlaw** · 2020-12-19 13:59

No regular Toonami tonight. They are showing a animated Wonder Woman movie to celebrate Wonder Woman: 1984 being on HBOMax, and a Justice League movie. It's not that I am complaining. DC animated movies are awesome but they did this a while back with Primal because it's going to be on there. Does HBOMax own CN now?

**synistar** · 2020-12-19 14:04

CN is part of the WarnerMedia umbrella.

Funimation and parent Sony reached a deal this month to acquire Crunchyroll from WarnerMedia.

**Corrderio** · 2020-12-19 15:58

That's a really stupid reason given we know they won't be airing anything new next week and the week after due to the holidays.

**Outlaw** · 2020-12-19 18:45

I just looked it up and last weeks ep of SAO happen to be the end of "part 6" Alicization. Coincidence?

Nah theres still 7 more episodes based on what I just checked on Crunchyroll. It just sucks that they never air Toonami on weeks that have holidays, so yeah its going to be quiet a wait.
