Toonami Trending Rundown for May 16-17, 2026

“Do you know what pissed me off? When Evil Eye attacked you [Momo]. That pissed me off big time. I thought we’d come up with a solution by now. But the Evil Eye is too dangerous. He’s too savage, too cunning. We can’t just leave him alone. And still, you all accept him, like he’s part of your family. I never heard anything so weird. I never heard anything…so totally badass. Yo, what pisses me off is how freakin’ weak I am. Hang in there, Jiji. You said you’d protect the Evil Eye, and that’s cool. I’ll see you adieu.”

–          Ken “Okarun” Takakura, Dan Da Dan (Ep. 20)

“I’m trusting you, dude. Help him.”

The Toonami Trending Rundown for May 16-17, 2026. On Twitter, #Toonami trended in the United States alongside Rooster Fighter, Dan Da Dan, Blue Lock, and Tokyo Revengers. Blue Lock also trended on Tumblr.

This week’s feature was the new My Adventures with Superman season 3 promo, scheduled to premiere on Toonami this June 13 at midnight and streaming on HBO Max the next day. You can check it out below:

Public Service Announcement (PSA) for those who live-tweet Toonami shows on X/Twitter every Saturday. For non-premium “unverified” accounts, you’re only now allotted 50 original posts (including tweets, retweets, and quote posts) and 200 replies per day.

Finally, Toonami has announced that on June 6th, Toonami will be showcasing a marathon of all 12 episodes of Rooster Fighter from 11:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m. to commemorate the completion of its first season. No word yet on a second season at this time.

Until next time, stay gold, and feel free to donate to Mike McFarland’s GoFundMe if you can as he continues his battle against glioblastoma. And we take this time to remember Tom Kane, voice of the likes of Professor Utonium in The Powerpuff Girls, and various characters in Star Wars animated series, including Yoda, Admiral Ackbar, Boba Fett, Qui-Gon Jinn, and C-3PO; who had passed away on May 18, 2026, due to stroke complications. RIP, Tom, and thank you.
