  1. I think it's hilarious! Great comic relief right in the middle of a mostly-serious action block! Plus, I have this theory that the Food network was pitched this like 3 years ago and like totally passed on it! But I've been finding it entertaining, as long as my belly's full or currently being filled, of course! https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/food-wars-shokugeki-no-soma/episode-4/.87527 Grade: "B-." I thought it was a bit better than that! And of course the party scene overlaid by the exposition of the Council of Ten made for a nice juxtaposition of explanation and good drunken fun!
  2. On the contrary, I feel these characters' arcs are intriguing since they hopefully will learn and improve to overcome their trappings (Mineta: lust; Bakugo: anger; Endeavor: pride) and let their greater nature as heroes shine through. The fact that they are humanly flawed is quite an asset to the series! https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/my-hero-academia/episode-60/.136534 Grade: "A". Man, it's sad that we've only got 3 episodes left...until Season 4, which hopefully gets a better timeslot, more in line with Season 1 & 2, and the first half of Season 3, on Toonami!
  3. I haven't made this point yet, but I really like how Sentai will actually make use of different fonts in its on-screen translations of Japanese text. None of the others do that, and it was certainly in full display in this episode!
  4. This seemed to be mostly an "exposition and setup" episode for the action that's to come! https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/lupin-the-third-part-5/episode-7/.131639 Grade: "A". I didn't get to watch it live, but I did try to watch it later that night (actually fell asleep to it on the West Coast feed, delayed 90 minutes), and I just watched it now, and I thought it was a good episode!
  5. Didn't appear in the episode, but DID appear in the Bump! Also, no review available until Episode 2.
  6. I can finally post this without a spoiler: I was a little spoiled on Lucifer's death from watching this video; I thought the poor kitty would be taken out in battle or something. But that wasn't the case...
  7. This is a PSA: If you go to "Shows" on the Adult Swim website or app and try to watch JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, you'll only find Diamond Is Unbreakable (Part 4). As of tonight, exactly 2 years to the day since Toonami started airing JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Part 3, they have officially lost the rights to it. Press F and submit to pay respects.
  8. More like a "B-" pick. Will the Tenchi franchise ever release something good enough for Toonami instead? Also, somehow with the likes of Gundam the Origin and My Hero Academia relegated to the 3 AM hour abyss right now, the bar seems REALLY high...
  9. Well, we finally reached the sea! https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/attack-on-titan/episode-59/.148544 Grade: 4.5⭐ Boy, it really does seem other than the Colossal (Armin) and the Attack (Eren), we might not even have any Titans going forward. That's going to be rather strange! Though I guess at some point Zeke and Reiner, a.k.a. the Beast and the Armored Titans, will show up again too. But I really hope this final season doesn't devolve to the Eldians and their Titans mowing down the Marleyans as if THEY are the villains! Such a twist wouldn't be outside the realm of possibility with Death Note's director, though!
  10. What the hell is Camie up to?! OH, IT WAS NOT CAMIE!!!
  11. Damn, I'm getting butt-sleepy... Well, that's cool that they still have a shot!
  12. Damn, now Char is REALLY living up to his name! Get it? He's quite "Charred?"
  13. OK, you're right. So it's not the mother we're saying goodbye to... ...interesting!
  14. Are you SURE? Then WHY is the title of the episode "Goodbye, Artesia?" Man, this show has EVERYTHING! A good old-fashioned Western saloon battle!!
  15. You mean "Astraia"? Artesia IS the mother!
  16. I think so! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
  17. Even better than Gundam Unicorn, right??
  18. Yeah, but the joke may be that he wants everyone else BUT her, and she genuinely wants him? https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/black-clover/episode-80/.146143 Grade: 4⭐. It was also a nice surprise hearing Beerus' VA Jason Douglas as Finral's papa! ON TO BORUTO!!!
  19. COOK YOUR DAMN CHICKEN, YOU MORONS!!!
