I was just wondering what would take Pop Team Epic’s spot on September 29th, but think I would rather have Pop Team Epic reruns than Boruto. Just way too soon for it since having Shippuden only being 1 episode a week is just not cutting it. That was probably why One Piece left. Long series are just a bad idea for Toonami as long as they remain weekly instead of like weekdays. Hell even just having Toonami being on Saturday and Sunday would be better so could at least get double Shippuden episodes.
One Piece was taken off because it did poorly in the ratings (it doesn’t help that it’s been going for years) it’s unlikely that it’ll return to the block.

Conflicted about this. Another long runner, but not even done with Shippuden yet. So I'll be watching future and past, spoiling myself. Laughing Will see how it goes.

They also started with the Foxy arc, which is considered one of, if not the worst arc of One Piece. They should have just skipped to Water 7.
