The Toonami Trending Rundown for October 16-17, 2021. It was a big night for the better cartoon show. Alongside the airing of the penultimate episode of Fena: Pirate Princess, Toonami had a special presentation of the Batman films Batman Ninja and Batman: Under the Red Hood to commemorate this year’s DC FanDome event.

On Twitter, #Toonami trended in the United States alongside Fena: Pirate Princess, Batman, and Batman: Ninja. Meanwhile on Twitter, #Toonami also trended. The full list, including statistics and tweet counts from the Twitter app, can be seen below.

Tune in tonight for the season finale of Fena: Pirate Princess, followed by the airing of Batman: The Long Halloween. Until next week, stay safe, be sure to visit blacklivesmatters.carrd.co and anti-asianviolenceresources.carrd.co to see what you can do to help the fight against racial inequality, and continue to do your part to stop the spread of COVID-19 and protect others by following your local health advisories. Get fully vaccinated if you are able to, wear a mask in public and practice social distancing by staying six feet/two meters away from one another, if possible, and wash your hands thoroughly for at least 20 seconds.

Before I finish off this week’s rundown, we received some sad news for the Toonami Faithful, Dragon Ball fandom, and the anime community as a whole this week. Voice actor Christopher Ayres, known best as the voice of Frieza, passed away this past Monday after a four-year battle with end-stage COPD. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his friends, family, and fans. Thank you for everything, Chris, and as would say “Love and laughter, always.”
