On June 13, 2019, there was a special viewers choice poll posted on Toonami's official Facebook page, through which Toonami viewers could vote for one of two episodes of Hunter x Hunter that they would like to see reaired on the block. Fans could vote for their choice during the week of June 13-20, 2019, and the episode that got the most votes would be reaired at 3:00 AM on Saturday, June 29th, the week after the series finale aired. The two episodes up for vote were episode 126: "Zero x and x Rose" and episode 135: "This Day x And x This Moment". Ultimately, episode 135 won with 55% of the votes.[1]
With Hunter x Hunter completing its run on June 22nd, this viewers choice episode was used as filler so The Promised Neverland could complete its run on Toonami on June 29th. With the two series completed, they were then replaced in the lineup by two new series the following week: Food Wars! and Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin - Advent of the Red Comet.
