Good, I'm glad. With everything they've been writing off they deserve to be written off a bit, too.

Disappointed is really the best way to say it

This looks pretty good! I have to wonder if they're going to go for any setting update, so if they did I can't imagine it would matter too much. Makes me think I may need to look into HiDIVE

Okay, so my memory is right. Now that I think about it, I remember him having a meltdown when One Piece left Toonami, and I vaguely remember something about death threats. Anything after that I have no idea.

Wasn't he on this board for a while? Or am I confusing it with whatever the hell ASMB became after they nuked Lithium? I can't deny Family Guy's success. Even if I'm not too fond of the later seasons, the earlier seasons of the show are still funny as hell. I guess it just needed the right outlet to succeed and Adult Swim provided it.

I've heard much of the same, actually. I don't mean to insult anyone (read: most of the people) who live there, my emotions just get the better of me sometimes. Seriously though fuck CR/Funi.

Oh hell, I wasn't even on ASMB that long and I remember Ranlsa. I specifically remember when she PM'ed me and was angry that I disagreed with her on something Bebop related (reruns or something IIRC). It was just one long string of angrish. There was also a guy I remember who believed Shippuden was the best show on the block because of how dark it was, and specifically loved to bring up Orochimaru killing babies. I like to believe I've matured since then but I don't know how true that is.

I always hate hearing news like this. TBH I really hope Funi isn't able to find anyone to fill the role, though I feel that's a bit wishful thinking on my part. In other news it's yet another reason for me to never go to Texas (like I already needed one).

Wow I've been out of action with the block for so long now. So much doubling up, but it looks like there's a plan in place, plus new shows coming is always welcome.

Confirms what I already believed, but it IS nice to hear a little reassurance of it.

It is sad, but to be honest, I've been expecting this for a while. I saw the news notification that doctors were concerned for her health this morning and I knew it wouldn't be much longer. Still, though, sad for her family. 96 is quite and age to live to so at least they can take solace in that, I guess.

Is it wrong the only horse I was pulling for in this race was for The Simpsons not to get pity Emmys?

Wow, this is fucking awful, I felt disgusting just reading about it. Obviously, Tiffany Hadish should be kicked off of Tuca and Bertie. I hope they go that route instead of cancelling outright.

Yeah I'm definitely getting Shippo out of it as well. Definitely an... odd way of designing the character, but I don't entirely hate it.

There's effort here, I'll give it that. I'm a bit more optimistic for it now than I was last year. I do hope it turns out good. I think I just instinctively cringe at this point when I think of live action anime, for better or for worse. I can thank Dragon Ball Evolution for that. If One Piece manages to break that for me then I'll be happy.

I'm just cynical of anything someone in his position would say, Toonami related or not. It's not so much I think he's lying about Toonami being safe, just that I doubt sheer goodwill is that reason. This is what happens when I read too much TVTropes.

I was lucky enough to find rips online, after looking for quite a while. Sadly, they're of lower quality and don't have commercials, but they're better than nothing...

Dunno either, but I have a full set of recording from Ani-Monday so at least my TV tip quota is filled.

While I don't necessarily believe him (I've seen enough times where someone will say something is safe then go and get rid of it), I do think Toonami isn't going anywhere. They seem to be cutting a lot right now and it isn't doing them any favors, either monetarily or with potential/current customers. If they cut Toonami now they would lose a lot of the goodwill that they barely have to begin with. They can't afford that.

Trust me, if MySpleen cared about ratio I'd have been kicked off years ago, though I have been working to better my ratio recently. I was never particularly fond of iTunes video DRM either. There used to be a way to strip DRM from iTunes movies you bought if you were on a certain version of iTunes or lower, but as far as I know that's no longer an effective way.

Yeah I agree. Bit of a bummer we won't see a dub premiere on Toonami but I think we'll see it eventually.

While I get why they may want to destroy the footage, I felt the idea was a bit excessive. Better to save it and wait until it might actually be profitable. Regardless, I expect it to turn up a lost media search 7 or so years from now.

Jman is like onions. He has layers. Somebody doesn't just post Shrek and not expect a comment

Ahahahahaha nothing stay lost forever, I guess. It's funny because the Library of Congress has to be one of the most obvious places it would be. Right under our noses the whole time. This looks like total trash, and I hate the concept of Americanizing an anime, but I'm curious nonetheless.

Love me my Aqua Teen, bring it on.
