It's possible that it's from before CN decided to bring Toonami back, yeah. I'd wait for an official schedule for confirmation.

Well, the schedule on the 26th is ever-so-slightly different than the usual schedule as someone already mentioned.
Adult Swim's schedule page: http://www.adultswim.com/schedule/onair.html
This one shows 3 blank spots starting on Saturday the 26, so maybe those shows aren't revealed yet and TV guide is just guessing based on previous Saturdays?

Was Reboot really pretty to begin with?
It was never pretty. Not even back when it aired.
Beast Wars looked so much better.
I don't think TV Guide is guessing, but it could be the normal schedule they planned in advance, before they announced the new change. We'll see what happens.

Considering the lineup rarely changes that would most likely be the case.
Level E 11
Good times. Good times indeed.
I don't feel like the horror mood they were aiming for really stuck at any point, but it was still a very fun episode. And I'm just glad to see our delinquent baseball bro back in action. The end of the episode felt kind of rushed, though.
The last few episodes have had a better mix of comedy and tension than the middle of the series did. I'm glad I came back to it.
Lupin III 7
In some ways, this episode is more unbelievable than AKB0048. But not in ways that I particularly like.
After how strong the last episode was, this one kind of feels like it's spinning its wheels. A lot of talking heads and airplanes. There's some non-linear storytelling, but it's not used in a very interesting way.
Goemon deserves better episodes than this.

Level E doesn't normally do smart transitions like this, so it struck me when it happened.

Besides my joy at his return, I liked the surreal air of the first part of the episode. Great use of "bloom".

And don't you mean spinning its rotors? That's the impression I got.

All those shows are adult swim shows. So are they just going to run Toonami bumpers and call it Toonami?

TV Guide has a listing of the debut line-up for Toonami's return on May 26th:
Hmmm, I was going to be checking out the debut for sure anyways.
Not feeling most of this line-up though.
No, I remember the plot points just fine. Just like my Clannad comparison however, Sora no Woto's plot points are buried underneath unremarkable writing in the first 3/4 of the series. Sora no Woto is by no means a must-watch as a result.
SNW isnt a must watch series. Its a (mostly) lighthearted series with beautiful music and settings, some fun characters, and it all comes to a fitting conclusion. Its not remarkable but I find it to be a very enjoyable series.

A lot less tanks than I was expecting.
I gotta agree with you here.
They should have had at least one new show of some sort.
anyway, after a quick excursion for osme tea and mangos I'm back to finish Garzey's wing! HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

That TV Guide listing definitely has to not be final, though it makes sense that they wouldn't be able to completely revamp in such a short period of time.

Lupin III: A Woman named Fujiko Mine 7
Goemon, why you doing this to me homeboy?
Nah, it's not his fault (
). However, I wasn't feeling this episode at all. Besides chucking at some "Fatlantic Ocean" here and some
there.
This episode was largely boring.
Some Cold War fiction stuff, mostly focused on the ideals of
and those "barely" playing off of Fujiko and Goemon getting that "friend zone
" status.
It would seem I spoke too soon about this series' "getting better again" after the last episode.
Cheap shot, easy way out (that is not even definitive in quality assurance) request: Bring back Lupin and/or Jigen, etc, etc.
We start off with some good ol' BDSM. Something for everyone, etc,etc
I heard y'all like planes.
Goemon, why you doing this to me homeboy?
Nah, it's not his fault (
How could it be when he was there for all of 3 seconds?
"Kestro"
This episode was largely boring.

Kestro
(Yeah, she calls him "Mr.Boyfriend playfully, but he didn't even get to rub her back with lotion!" Hmm, well there was an edit after his facial expression to the idea and he had a bottle in his hands in the following scene...yet even if he did she still left him to fiddle with Kestro! "Friend Zone" material to me!

I still secretly thank the all-knowing, wonzo, for leading me to that treasure.
If I remember correctly, Bahi JD mentioned the support of Cindy Yamauchi on making his long-distance participation on the project a reality. She seems like a really nice person for going the extra mile in helping a talent to achieve this.

YOU FINALLY FOUND THE GREAT BAWARAJU TREE!!!!
If there are any others who have not yet watched Wings of Garzey, then now is the time to confess and do what needs to be done!

Lupin the Third - The Woman Called Fujiko Mine 7
After last week and now this week, I can confidently state that this show has lost it. Of course, I'd much rather that than more dull, run-of-the-mill episodes like 3 and 4. The animation was at an extreme low, and the direction wasn't particularly interesting. (
) But the story itself had that "They really went there?" quality of Sengoku Collection 5. I could not stop laughing when
. What audacity. The next two episodes are supposed to have more Lupin and Jigen, which is a good thing in itself, and I can only hope they'll be able to keep up this level of inspiration.

I never felt any tension in the climactic showdown, even with the ticking Doomsday Clock.
Goemon showed up and cut the missles down to save the world
Now I'm not looking forward to this episode.

As my personal ANN-based list counts slightly differently than MAL, this is also my 500th anime.
Night on the Galactic Railroad
This is a really neat slow burner of a film. Combine subtle imagery and symbolism with moderately anthropomorphic cats and it's easy to see why icarus likes this film.
...
And now for something not so neat...
Roukyuubu 3-12 FREEDOM
Overall, this show was pretty much Infinite Stratos but with lolis and basketball rather than mechs, tsunderes, and Char.
Lots of this...
Completely random shots like this...
And yeah...
In conclusion, to the people who support this:

Kids on the Slope 6:
I just feel bad for everyone. I understand why Kaoru reacted the way he did, but I also feel bad for Sentarou. Everyone is making mistakes. It's the mark of a great show when you can just empathize with all of the characters on a pure level.
i don't remember thisCompletely random shots like this...
Kids on the Slope - Episode 6
I think Kaoru speaks for all of us here:
High school would be too easy that way, Kaoru.
Congratulations.
