“The greatest thing is friendship. Food tastes great when you’re eating together.”
– Toriko, One Piece (Ep. 590)
This Toonami Trending Rundown is a double-feature for the nights of March 4-5 and 11-12, 2023. This past two weeks featured doubleheaders of both My Hero Academia and One Piece, and history would be made as Episode 590 of One Piece, the “Toriko x One Piece x Dragon Ball Z Super Crossover Special,” would air in the United States for the very first time.
For the night of March 4-5, both #Toonami and One Piece would trend both in the United States on Twitter and on Tumblr. Meanwhile for the night of March 11-12, #Toonami would trend in the United States on Twitter alongside My Hero Academia and Naruto Shippuden. #Toonami would also trend on Tumblr alongside #mha.
It should be noted that One Piece‘s 590th episode was aired back-to-back with Toriko episode 99 in Japan back in April 2013, which also is a crossover episode between the three franchises. In addition, One Piece previously had crossover episodes with Toriko in episodes 492 and 542. Toei has not revealed if those particular episodes will also come stateside at this time, but if the airing of Episode 590 has shown us is that nothing is impossible.
Last week’s feature was a new Adult Swim ID, titled “Glitching Nightmare.” You can check it out below.
Tune in tonight as the final season of Food Wars, Food Wars: The Fifth Plate makes its long-awaited debut on the better cartoon show, among other great moments. Until next time, stay gold.
Legend: The shows listed are ordered based on their appearance on the schedule. Show trends are listed in bold. The number next to the listed trend represents the highest it trended on the list (not counting the promoted trend), judging only by the images placed in the rundown. For the Twitter tweet counts, the listed number of tweets are also sorely based on the highest number shown based on the images on the rundown.
