  1. Also, oh shit, Krypton Zod, that reminds me, I was rather enjoying that show.
  2. Oh yeah, FLCL marathon so no Naruto either tonight, so I can't post this in a Naruto tonight even though summer's almost over. They apparently posted a summer poster on the Boruto twitter earlier this week.
  3. Guessing he was a rebel like usual and not part of the invasion himself.
  4. Same, lol, somehow I wasn't thinking about it. Hell, and I was just watching Superman and Lois mere months ago.
  5. The season took a break, second cour of Season 3 starts October 12th, so we'll have to wait until the dub resumes presumably too. https://www.crunchyroll.com/news/latest/2023/8/26/dr-stone-new-world-anime-returns-with-2nd-cour-on-october-12
  6. Oh damn, yeah I forgot we've reached the end of the current eps until it returns.
  7. Yeah, I guess we should have guessed it'd be a typical "streaming show" season length, but I was also thinking it'd be a longer season.
  8. Very cool, good reason to give the franchise another go now. Not to take anything away from G Gundam either, loved that one too. Yeah, I dunno if it really aspired from Wing but on the surface it's the one it probably at least superficially shares the most DNA with, such as a focus specifically on a main team of Gundam pilots rather than just individual pilots, team based operations, etc. Oh, actually I'd say there really hasn't been too many female captains within Gundam so it's not like there's a lot of choice, but like we were saying as she's also one of my favorite characters in 00 overall, in addition to being the main captain of the series, she's a pretty easy choice for me, like there was Murrue from Seed and another female captain in Seed Destiny, and a few others, but the Seed shows were just average to me I like a lot of other Gundams more than Seed. That said, even if there were more competition I'd imagine Sumeragi would likely still rank extremely high for me since she's one of my favorite Gundam ship captains (like Bright) so far, male or female, even having seen most of the shows so far. I do wish there were more female combatants in 00, like you said there aren't many, but at least Soma was often a highlight in a lot of the battles she participated in for most of the run. Yeah, now that I think about it, Rain's role kinda reminds me a lot of Winry. The lack of female fighters until late with Allenby I remember being kinda disappointing, but I do remember on my last rewatch a few years ago thinking they did a pretty good job with Rain for a support character now that I catch more of her stuff. I think I'm due for a Wing re-watch as well, it's been years and I'm curious how it still holds up, and maybe this time I'll be able to follow some of the middle section better. Agreed, there's another layer of enjoyment to many of the Gundam shows once you're into these kinds of stories.
