  1. LOL TOM "And that someone is usually right....smug....but right."
  2. WE BACK BABY! That music track for the promo reminds me of the sweet Dimension W promo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qii6pBx5Ucs
  3. Oh yeah, almost forgot we did get the rerun of the block for a while, that was very interesting. That DW trailer was great, would have loved to see more of that get made, and I loved SAC returning to TV.
  4. I feel like those megathreads are messy let alone during the crossover when one show ends and the next begins (not to mention during premieres and finales when some people actually do like to continue discussing the finale even after the next show comes on, especially if it's a show they don't like, like say SAO). Plus I feel like it'd be almost impossible to easily find old ep discussions for specific episodes later that way for those of us who occasionally like to re-read old ep threads when shows come back after a long break (like Jojo or AoT), like I do sometimes. Not to mention the messiness if someone actually wants to late post about an episode of a different show from earlier in the night while the rest of us are live reacting to the current show. Such as if someone actually misses a show and then wants to post about it later in the night (Owl for example seems to do this all the time when he finally arrives for the shows he's not here to watch live and sometimes threads like the Gundam threads would get late posts with questions about certain things that us Gundam fans would answer). With the current method everyone also knows exactly what ep the person is talking about when responding if an old ep thread gets bumped during the week when most of us aren't around, which makes it easier to look up. If uncluttering the "top level" is the only goal then, rather than making finding old ep reactions harder to find, I feel like it'd be better to just make another level down within the Toonami section that contains all the legacy threads of past episodes of each show (maybe even separate by show if you really want it clean, even though they obviously won't get much visitor traffic at a time) some fixed time during the week after Toonami is over, but that sounds like a lot of extra work. That seems way better to me than lumping a show's 20+ weekly live commentary reactions, or multiple different show's reactions each week, into a megathread where we also lose the ability to be able to look back at old episode reactions very easily. Myanimelist for example still has individual episode threads like we do, under each show's forum section along more show-wide threads in there too if people feel compelled to make them for certain shows. So it's not like there aren't other places that have individual episode threads. I mean imagine looking for ep 10's reaction again for a certain show later, no one's going to remember that that specific show's ep 10 aired on say 11/2 anymore after some time has passed, especially when all of these shows are on different episodes at the same time since they aren't aligned. At least people have actually been using the tags for a while now that's made it at least somewhat easier to navigate thread list for specific shows. That said, something like creating a new additional main show thread in the main Toonami folder for each Toonami series that can contain more extended discussions and theorizing, without all the live reactions interrupting them, isn't a bad idea to me if you want more "entire show" discussion opportunity. Especially like someone said when we get shows like Promised Neverland or Attack on Titan, etc. joining that have a lot of mystery that spur more long term theorizing than some other shows.
  5. Pretty much exactly what Momo could really use to learn
  6. LOL he sends letters to them
