Twitter anime “fans” are some of the dumbest people on earth who don’t realize that fanservice is one of anime’s biggest selling points. It was nice having something air on the block that actually felt like it belongs on AS for once. I guess I can understand some of the confusion since literal toddler content airs right before it. And furthering on how dumb they are, they probably think since it has more episodes, it’s just going to transition right into them with no formal announcement. Watch out for the classic “why is Dan Da Dan restarting” tweets in 3 weeks.

Not really sure where you get that from. As far as we know, 10/18 could be its last night and they just don’t return it on the November schedule. They did the same for Sailor Moon. I have often said simply extending to a 60 episode order would resolve all their issues. If they didn’t, pulling the show for 2 months is gonna send the wrong message to the viewers since you know they won’t be transparent on why it’s being pulled. I think there are a couple of reasons. One, it’s a courtesy to the audience since Daima will be right at its tail end at that point. Just them not blue balling the audience for 1-2 weeks. Secondly, they know as well as we do if just Uzumaki goes out, not a soul is tuning in. It’s a dirty trick to pull people in and hopefully get a few runoff viewers. Also surprised to see them not marathon such a seasonally appropriate show, with the added bonus of people not violently hating it. But, they may just be forward thinking and want people to rewatch it weekly rather than burning half of it out on one night. I was thinking that Bleach might pause after this cour, then run 3+4 sometime next year, but since it’s one of the only shows they trust as the lead, I’m starting to think they may just fire up cour 3 as our lead show for the rest of 2025 and early 2026 until Primal starts and we get saddled with those garbage reruns.

Well, the end of the year shitshow begins. For 10/18, Dan Da Dan replaces Lazarus as our rerun, so we know we aren’t getting S2 anytime soon. Blue Exorcist doubles up for the night to cover the empty slot. 10/25 gives us the second marathon of Uzumaki for 2025. But Daima and Bleach still air an episode so you can’t just skip the night. Halloween this year is on the following Friday, hard to believe they won’t take 11/1 off too. Also, I believe 10/18 marks the 50th episode of OP this year, so that may be another issue to deal with.

Hardly. Maybe if this was something that existed in the 90s during CNs peak it would be a symbol of the brand. A crap hole dressed up motel in rural Pennsylvania using mostly defunct characters that only opened a couple years ago was a symbol of poor money management, nothing else.

Honestly surprised this hasn’t happened already. The place kinda had a depressing aura about it. Like something a parent would pay a lot of money for but the kids don’t really enjoy it because it’s a basic ass hotel with some CN themed gimmicks in the lobby. I have also heard that this place is just a general dump hole with poor management and questionable cleanliness.

Well, the online schedule is blank as we are accustomed to, but, the post Toonami time is getting Primal and UWE. Obviously some set up for an early 2026 Primal S3 drop. If nothing else, thank god those are off the table for Toonami in October. Dan Da Dan slot I’m gonna give 50/50 odds to either Dan Da Dan S2, or Mashle S2. Lazarus slot I’m gonna say Naruto doubles up so they can get through as much as possible before its inevitable expiration in the coming months.

Plot to the horror script leaked - Tim and Eric are still employed True a bone chiller

Ok teenage actress here for the audition, for this role, you are gonna go ahead and put this gag in your mouth for literally 99% of the scenes you are in. Here’s your script, you may notice it’s blank. That’s because your character doesn’t speak, but she does make humming sounds into the gag occasionally, make sure they sound cute and you aren’t drooling everywhere. Oh and for that 1% of the time you do get to take the gag out, you will also have your taters out for everyone to look at. So just go ahead and sign here…hey where are you going?

Such is the cycle. Everyone is willing to do anything to secure Warner, but when they do, they would do anything to get rid of it. In the Twilight Zone.

Well, next years Super Bowl the Giants are gonna win because I wore this jersey while I sat on the couch.

They definitely were right, anime has been sharting all over western animation for 2 decades now, but by the sound of it, it seems Demarco and pals were somehow taking the credit for it as if they did anything besides put the anime on TV. Which I can see coming off as really abrasive to coworkers who actually work on projects themselves. It’s like being a football fan and your favorite team wins the Super Bowl, and then you act as if you contributed in any way to that achievement. Likely a big factor for why Demarco has always been so desperate to make anime. He has always known deep down that his only achievement has been doing license deals for other people’s work. Too bad for him any project with his name in the credits is a dumpster fire though.

Because despite their claim of not doing so, they absolutely are going to chop this up into episodes for a TV run in a few years. Just making it clean and easy.

No, you are correct here about this. Oda likes to divide up the crew each arc and let different members get more spotlight. In Dressrosa, we see a slightly more tolerable method of doing this. Instead of half the crew shifting to some borderline filler adventure, they just get shuffled off to the next arcs start line, and we rarely check on them. Once the rest of the crew catches up, they will bench and recover while the other half of the crew takes the spotlight. I think Oda did a bit of a U turn on the world building regarding Devil Fruits. They are rare, they are expensive, the average jackoff will never even be near one, but their existence is well known. Things also change after the timeskip, as we move into a much more powerful area of the world, devil fruits aren’t a strange thing, they are an expectation for survival. Same with Haki. There is only a handful of people in the east blue who can do that. Yet now we see even regular background mook marines can do it easily. Because that’s the areas power level expectation. What I feel like the live action does the best job of fixing is we don’t have to take constant pauses for a character to do their goofy gimmick. We don’t have to see Zoro get lost EVERY scene where there is movement. We don’t have to see Sanji’s bullshit EVERY time boobs come into frame. We don’t have to watch half the cast scream and make a wacky face every 30 seconds. This is the true time waster in One Piece.

You can’t have one without the other. Anyway, you are correct, I haven’t watched it. I have a policy about watching garbage. I just don’t do it. But lucky me, a clip of the movie popped into my Instagram doomscrolling, so I gave it a try. Maybe I was wrong? No, I wasn’t. Because the clip I saw was a prolonged scene of the main dog having gay sex with another dog, while confessing(?) to a female dog I assume he did not get to have sex with. I went ahead and closed it at about that point, reassured in my conviction that this is a bad movie. Trying to figure out the “decline of western animation” translates to “why does everyone prefer anime now”. I already conceded that animation wise, Fixed does its job. Even from that short clip I saw, it had that Genndy animation style that only he can deliver. But story wise? It’s Sausage Party-lite. This is where the west falls flat. Animation is either Fox slop generic, which can have some good laughs but is visually boring, or it looks good but is a vulgar sex comedy. Meanwhile, over at anime town, you can get whatever you want. Vulgar sex comedy? Can do. Want a few laughs? No problem. Serious action? Yes sir. An intro to some niche sport or hobby? Yes for some reason. The east offers it all, the west offers almost nothing. And that’s what has brought us to the point where the western animation industry is barely hanging on by a thread. As for earning it, I’d probably turn a blind eye to this movie if Genndy didn’t have so many recent fumbles. Jack ending? Atrocious and ripped off Gurren Lagann. Primal? Right down the tubes when Spear learned his first and only word. UWE? A napkin idea that should have stayed on the napkin.

My point is, he is talking about the decline as if he didn’t just contribute to said decline not even one month ago. The state of western animation is more than just the way it looks. Fixed has that animation flare we come to expect from Genndy. But then content wise it’s about dog schlong and just becomes another reason in the pile for why the west is falling miles behind on animation.
