BAKUON!! #11 Space Ghost Coast to Coast: "Momentary" and "Baffler Meal" Full Frontal with Samantha Bee: (yesterday's episode) Yuri!!! on ICE #1 [stake through the heart]

Pretty much. And Love Live! just introduced the first anime season featuring a new idol group, which means a whole lot more new merchandise to buy and more capital for company to claim.

http://www.animeherald.com/2017/01/18/crunchyroll-parent-ellation-lays-off-17-employees-following-acquisition/ ...yeah. This ain't a particularly good thing, guys. I do think it should be stated that this has nothing to do with the status of CR as a company; it's basically laid out in there that they're doing better than ever before. But I guess an acquisition of an engineering company happened and now they have to lay off a few engineers as well as other notable people who've been involved with the brand, including a major contributor to their social media pages. My heart goes out to all the people who were laid off, and I really hope the company isn't negatively affected much by this. It's especially notable to consider given how much they've catered to anime fans over the years.

Wasn't this thread already made before? My first guess was that the original copy was moved to Dumpster Fires, but I guess it got deleted in its entirety. S:

Imagine being a different person in this country that actually cares about such a thing.

Heh... good luck getting 2M viewers if even Family Guy can't hold 75% of that. Maybe we should all stop the fuss over ratings and put our emotions into activism instead.

Next week's episode is rated TV-PGLS. You may get your nudity right then and there.

No, I ain't taking no breaks... not this time, at least. I must make up for apathy. Bakuon!!, Episode 10: "Juniors!!"

It's been here for a while. Always accepting new people who enjoy the gab.

There were a ton of ads for food and restaurants on this week's Toonami, so much so that it managed to do what I thought wouldn't happen until Food Wars were to join the block and made me crave a chicken sandwich. I don't know if it's normal and maybe I just now realized it or if it was a freak occurrence. I'm telling you: Always get the Pierre Drive-Thru brand stuff. It actually tastes like something other than canner grade meat and has a very satisfactory plump feeling. I love it when the juice caresses down my throat.

Kantai Collection #8

Also, the return of Samurai Jack(off) at 8:30.

Well... I got spoiled on that one thanks to Poke, but I can't wait to see it live on the air. The last Toonami of the Obama administration is gonna be great.

BAKUON!! #10 Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid #1 [somehow possibly a spoiler]

Well, Poke has been dominating the thread again for what seems like a while now, so this is as good of a time as any for me to barge back in. Bakuon!!, Episode 9: "New Students!!" [more delicious than a Woo Woo Grub]

For a casual fan who has Amazon Prime, having to pay extra to get their anime fix is pretty annoying. But if they don't have Amazon Prime, it's downright cruel. Having to pay five dollars on top of the existing fee of at least nine per month isn't ideal for everyone. And I can't imagine they'd do much with the rest. They have that show with Nazis controlling most of the world, but why would we bother with it when the real thing is about to start up and we can watch it on the news for free? I guess we'll just look at this thing go and see if it can make money. I'll be pissed if they get a show I actually want to watch (I mean, my family does have Amazon Prime through an accident, but we'd have to pay extra since I'm not on the plan), but other than that, I wish them no bad will.

Well... if you watch at least 75% of your anime legally, that's the least I can ask for. I just don't watch it illegally at all because that's what the kind man upstairs told me. And if you're a money-strapped college student, I guess I sympathize with you. At least I can still pay for Crunchyroll by selling random shit on eBay. :L

But that's okay.

I was expecting Masquerade to make a comment about the old-ass art style, but it would be him complaining about the lack of cel dirt. Either way, I think it's a refreshing change of pace.

Why am I seeing KissAnime logos on the corners of those screenshots? Kantai Collection #7 Space Ghost Coast to Coast: "Sweet for Brak" Full Frontal with Samantha Bee: "January 11, 2017" [i sexually identify as a [s]blood[/s] cum dumpster]

If Gundam Unicorn ends up doing not any better than IBO, I would be seriously disappointed. The first episode actually hooked me on the series, and I'm really psyched to continue the story and get some great animation along the way.

What does Jman think One Piece would have to do to be considered "popular"? Become a mainstream show? Because I can't tell you how many popular shonen have gained traction among anime fans and not pierced the pop culture veil in the same way DBZ or maybe Naruto have.

*shifty eyes* But yeah, I love what [as] has been doing with these shows. I honestly didn't expect it to go beyond Space Ghost reruns at 1:15, but here we are.

Remember when Attack on Titan spent multiple episodes trying to move a boulder?

Eh... I'm sorry if that stuck in anyone's craw. I just felt like injecting some cynicism in here as a coping mechanism. Just because I think everything is fucked doesn't mean I won't try to make the world a better place. We don't know how much time we have left, and I'd like for it to stay that way.
