Adult Swim surprised Toonami viewers this night by debuting the first episode of FLCL: alternative.
Adult Swim on-air senior vice president and creative director Jason DeMarco confirmed on Twitter it "was the first episode of FLCL: alternative, not progressive." The episode aired on April 1 at midnight ET, taking the timeslot typically reserved for Jojo's bizarre adventure: Stardust Crusaders.
it's worth noting FLCL: alternative is actually the 1/3 season of the display, which isn't always scheduled to officially top-rated until September. meanwhile, the second season, titled FLCL: progressive, will make its debut on Toonami on June 2 at eleven:30pm ET/PT.
