Internet Reacts To Toonami's April Fool's Day Anime Stunt

Adult Swim is famous for its big jokes for April Fool's Day as they often use the programming block to experiment with different types of programming as a playful rib for fans.

In the past this has lead to the premiere of The Room on its network, the premiere of Rick and Morty's first season 3 episode (over and over), and the latest example is the best yet.

In celebration of April Fool's Day for 2018, the block not only premiered the much anticipated first episode of the new FLCL project, FLCL: Alternative, but they also proceeded to air it in its native Japanese with English subtitles. The rest of the schedule seems to follow this with even the transitions and bumps being entirely in Japanese.

Read on to see what fans have thought of the big stunt.
