Right now it's only good, I'll admit, but once you see how all the moving parts come together, if they get the final arcs right, you'll be with me on this. There's some shit that's gonna shake you lot to your bones.

The last Ushio and Tora episode kinda sucked, I dunno

Sucked is a pretty strong word, I feel it more dated itself then sucked with it's captain planet message built in. I also get the impression those two characters are going to be more important later on down the line so it wasn't like they could simply cut it out.
Ushio and Tora is like FMA:B in that it's all about how everything comes together in the very end to drop infinite megatons on you.
Yeah it's cool. 90s as fuck in the best ways.
It's definitely not boring like Inuyasha was. It's very high energy and it moves at a fast pace for one.
I have no idea of that description makes me want to watch it or avoid it considering how bored Inuyasha (both the original & Final Act) made me.
It's more action-y and funnier. Really, it's closer to if the FMA writer wrote Inuyasha and targeted it toward our demographic.

TBF Totally Spies wasn't a terrible show, but yes it doesn't fit with Toonami
Yeah, no, might've worked on weekday version of Toonami, but post-revival, hell no. Plus aside from Sym-Bionic Titan, how well have western action shows on Toonami been, considering all have either been poorly received/low views or just "meh"?
Plus aside from Sailor Moon, maybe Inuyasha, & I guess Hamtaro, Toonami seemed like the action block for guys. Totally Spies just........would clash with the other shows we have now.

Okay, now this has my interest. I doubt the dub will be good, but I'd totally watch it if it comes on Toonami, considering Sentai now has their foot in the door with two shows.

Totally Spies was a guilty pleasure for me. Plus it had some good art.

Ushio and Tora dub will bring back that 90's late afternoon anime nostalgia
So will the JoJo dub.

Its pretty dated. Its hard to get through the first few episodes because it spends too mcuh time being Ushi & Tora take down this random monster week after week. I really just watch for that two minutes of action every episode then focus on other things.
I also have to question the one that says it moves at a fast pace. It actually feels slow and it took way long to finally introduce whatever a big plot is for the show.
It is following the manga closely and it seems to be taking off about now in terms of plot. Monsters of the week were more character building for the main cast which lots of anime do, even Trigun.

I feel like the fast pace may actually hurt Ushio and Tora. Shit happens so fast that it becomes difficult to be affected by it. Like the episode with the girl and her artist father, it feels like I was supposed to feel for her but I didn't. It's like trying to get invested in this show is like trying to watch a movie while it's being fast-forwarded. Right now it's pretty entertaining and funny and the characters are likeable but it doesn't do anything particularly well. For now it's above average.
Also yeah immediately after finishing the first episode I definitely got a sort of 'Inuyasha for guys' vibe to it.

Good news, Sentai is gonna be dubbing Super!
Look forward to a whole new English cast!
So what you're really saying is...go watch it?
I think my brain started to itch at that thought.

I'm sure if that happens the dub will be somewhere between Akame Ga Kill and Symphogear quality acting then.
Nothing to worry about.
Just like the World Trigger dub?

It would truly be shocking if funi wasn't part of the super dub
Because I doubt I was the only person unfamiliar:
Apparently MIPCOM is a general entertainment trade show exposition held annually in Cannes, France. This year's event is October 5 through October 8. Other than seeing that Toei Animation has a booth, I can't find any more specific information. Some things are locked behind a paywall.
So, look for details to fall around that time. There's also a 'MipJunior' which is a few days earlier.

In searching around I happened to stumble across this too from a few years back.

Turns out no one wanted to watch a food themed DBZ clone that's written by a pedophile.

Can we please have neither?

If I was in charge of Toonami we'd have both.
We'd also have exclusively filler Naruto, Fake Namek DBZ, 4Kids One Piece, Mirai Nikki, and we'd have stopped SAO after GGO. Reruns of AoT until Toonami gets cancelled.
