  1. This is the quintessential Toonami soundtrack
  2. yeah it's legitimately epic
  3. I completely forgot how incredible this soundtrack is and spotify probable has the entire thing
  4. They're rebounding a bit with the line-up too so thats reassuring. I mean it's nothing groundbreaking but at least it's new stuff.
  5. I wonder if the author has any thoughts on the best way to experience the story or if he feels anything got lost in translation along the way. There's definitely a risk of that happening when you wade into overt political territory.
  6. True, I honestly cant comment on the exact political message they were trying to convey because there were significant sections I completely glossed over. The general vibe seemed to be mainly about creeping fascism. I actually think it's cool that they introduced more challenging and ambiguous story lines. It's one of the reasons I want to re-watch it. Apparently the underlying message has been misunderstood and misappropriated by the typical internet chuds.
  7. Yeah the gaps and breaks between seasons were a huge factor. I don't know if there's an anime less suited for long breaks between seasons. It really screwed with the overall cohesion and made the tonal shifts and twists feel even more disorienting. I was really captivated by the the gritty, mystery vibe present in the earlier seasons, so when they switched it up I was genuinely disappointed. It seemed like the elements I enjoyed most were kind of intentionally de-emphasized. But now that it's all said and done and the show has maintained it's solid critical reception, I definitely want to give it another shot.
  8. TBH I completely lost the thread about midway through and it felt kind of disjointed to me, but it's always solidly ranked on MAL which makes me think i really need to sit down and re-watch. In your opinion does the the plot make sense all the way through and is the writing solid? I feel like I could be missing something great.
  9. I just realized thats a Bebop reference...haha or I was trying to think where i heard it before and it dawned on me
  10. yeah it's been keeping things interesting
  11. shippuden was what I was actually mildly excited about. bummer
  12. Midoriya's martyr routine gets a little stale. Bakugo knows the deal
