It has been revealed that Cartoon Network’s Toonami block will soon be airing a new, well… for the channel anyway, anime starting on March 22nd. It has been announced that the first season of Black Lagoon will be replacing Soul Eater on that date. It is currently unknown whether or not the anime will be censored in any way or if the second season, Second Barrage, will air after the end of the first season.
For those who don’t know, Black Lagoon follows Rokura Okajima, a timid salary man who one day is kidnapped by mercenaries, called the Black Lagoon company, and held hostage only to eventually join up with the group under the name of Rock. FUNimation currently holds the license for the Black Lagoon anime seasons as well as the OVA series, Roberta’s Blood Trail.
