“Eren, you said there was nothing to say, but you were wrong. I got a question, and you will answer it. What do you really mean when you say you’re free?”
– Armin Arlert, Attack on Titan: The Final Season: The Final Chapters (Part 1)
The Toonami Trending Rundown is a double-feature for the nights of September 2-3 and 9-10, 2023. This past week saw the premiere of FLCL’s fourth season, titled FLCL: Grunge, followed by Part 1 of a two-part series finale for Attack on Titan.
In regards to trending, #Toonami trended in the United States on Twitter alongside FLCL Grunge and Attack on Titan. #Toonami also trended on Tumblr alongside Attack on Titan. In addition, during the previous week, Toonami showcased a marathon of FLCL: Alternative to hype fans up for Grunge, and as a result, #FLCLAlternative trended in the U.S.
Following the broadcast of Episode 1, the official FLCL Twitter account posted a video from director Takekiko on what to expect in the next episode.
