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.

Maybe you could get more people to watch it you made them accept that we've basically fucked ourselves over when it comes to this whole "civilized society" thing.

Meh... who cares? The Arctic Circle will be completely ice-free by the end of the year. We're gonna have bigger problems to deal with than a failing cartoon block.

Since it was the first weekend of the new year, I can't say I'm expecting great numbers for the 11:30P Super. It'll probably get up to its predicted numbers once people become numb to the current political situation and start watching more TV as a coping mechanism.

I have no real desire to watch Idol Incidents, but in a year where the President of the United States is about to be a reality TV show star, trying to would make me feel uncomfortable. I'd be reminded every other minute of how too many people think there will actually be a nuclear war because this particular guy has the codes. The Simpsons: "Das Bus" Space Ghost Coast to Coast: "Needledrop" and "Urges" when it aired on [as] BAKUON!! #9 [if we're all gonna die, we should do it in style]

I actually watched the first episode of this show last week while it aired, though I didn't catch yesterday's episode. It was pretty decent. Stoopid Monkey seems to be better at creating wholly original material than the same tired parodies on Robot Chicken week after week. I've enjoyed the DC Comics specials that just go wild with the characters while actually having a plot, and SuperMansion seems to be an extension of that. The voice acting was pretty good, for one. I enjoyed Bryan Cranston's return to more humorous roles as Titanium Rex. Also, I guess that was supposed to be Keegan Michael Key as the angry drill sergeant? I can't help but be reminded of his role in the Bad Guys pilot as being similar to this.

There were some rather brutal TV schedules it went up against, including at least one with a primetime boxing match. It never really stood a chance. I can think of other situations where the ratings went that low. How about Venture Bros. in the 8:00P hour shortly after [as] got it in April 2014?

Ben quit this place? I guess that must have been caused by... an incident. And maybe I could hear about it.
