ShowBuzz numbers for 12/3 are up. Read them and continue on with your leisurely delusions.

That sounds like a good idea, but you're implying that Disney will think of the show as a failure and not renew the contract after two years. =K

http://splitsider.com/2016/12/adult-swim-cancels-its-alt-right-show-million-dollar-extreme/ I guess the show's controversy ended up being the end of it, especially considering the office infighting. This will certainly be a strange chapter in [adult swim] history. And one that will probably be forgotten by the network itself.

[move]Quick bits; with quicker hits; here's the list...[/move] JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Zeppeli's death certainly made "Sorrowful Successor" a fitting episode title. And how nice of him to pass on his most powerful skills to Jonathan. Also, why did Speedwagon just sit there and watch in horror as the BDSM-fueled antics and torso decapitation just happened? But I liked the episode, which seems to be ratcheting the tension upward as Phantom Blood nears its end. Hunter x Hunter: I guess Gon couldn't beat the Spike Spencer-voiced(?) spinning top dude, but he made a good fight out of it and continued his advancement of learning nen and such. Wing reacted to it like a jerk, though. I'm also curious to see where this new plot with Kurapika goes. One Piece: Boring as shit. [as] Animated Specials: I'll be honest, none of these specials look particularly appealing to me (but maaaaybe Apollo Gauntlet, based on what I've heard of the premise). But I enjoyed Mr. Neighbor's House enough to give another night of pilots a shot. Joe Pera Helps You Find The Perfect Christmas Tree: I still need to watch him talk me to sleep. I haven't done so mostly because I'm waiting for just that opportunity. Cornholed ReclusiveLemming Upload: " ", by 4mat.

I think you care too much. Either Trump's presidency will go on with only decent chaos, or we'll be publicly executing the mentally ill by the end of the decade.

At this point, I think 1.5 million is the new high water mark... maybe a few hundred thousand better, I don't know.

But movies are expensive. You should know that already.

BTW, Children Who Chase Lost Voices is available for me on Xfinity, at least. It showed up in a special Toonami folder which seems to have all the latest hotness.

Kantai Collection #3 (rewatch) BAKUON!! #7 Studies In Pessimism (by Arthur Schopenhauer): Chapters 1-4 [for God is God, and I am I]

Aside from JoJo's not airing on New Year's Eve (if they were doing the special event to begin with), I'm happy with these choices. Even a third DBZ Kai marathon is okay, because it could be the last time the show airs on our block.

Ignoring the fact that they could make it in Japan without any foreign correspondent's involvement. Also, he was in a broadcast dub that's currently running (Izetta), but based on the article, he's already been replaced.

Yeah, it sucks. I'd rather them be airing two HxHs. But I guess it's part of the tradition after them having aired just two JoJo's total before a marathon weekend.

So the on-air schedule finally updated, and we have Toonami schedules for the next two weeks of December, including the 17th. All I'll say about that one is... if you were expecting a replay of Children Who Chase Lost Voices, prepare to be disappointed.

Here's something I'll say up front: I never actually read the Intruder 2 comic. Mostly because other people said it sucked. As for Trapped, I do feel genuinely enthusiastic about that one, so I'll get to it eventually.

Ouche. With ratings this bad, they'll probably go back to airing a Thanksgiving marathon in 2017. Though really, the whole of November of this year has been down. So who (or what) do we blame for this? [probably not politics]

I'll give DeMarco credit for sticking to the platitudes. He wants to make Gundam popular again, and even airing a mediocre series in the eyes of Toonami's fans won't dent his aspirations. As for the poll, I picked Mob Psycho 100 if only because there's adequate evidence to suggest that it's already coming to the block.

Woah, holy crap. I posted my thread one second earlier. Talk about a snipe. [but I'm not sure if you can delete threads]

Now, what was this DeMarco said about there being a permanent Gundam slot...? Well then.

Heh... I dunno. [looks in the mirror] Cool.

Shows: Dragon Ball Z Kai: Well, Goku is dead, but he won't be for long, and it's not as if I care or anything. Intruder 3: Between the Vindication taking flight and the new baby alien worm joining the team, this was a solid finale to the saga. I guess that makes him the first organic member of any Toonami broadcasting crew (I would have said biological, but I'm not sure how Moltar works...). The new packaging: I love it! There's a lot of Tron lines and a general electric feel. And some of it is recycled from the Shogo 162 graphic set, but that's okay, since even I think overhauling the block every single year is overkill. JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: I wasn't as keen on this episode due to me finishing up and overdue Computer Science assignment, but I liked what I saw here. But that didn't include the latter half at all. Gundam: IBO: So they're going to Edmonton... eh? Hunter × Hunter: For as much as I like the world building, they ripped a lot of the mystique out of Heaven's Arena by directly telling us what was on the top floors. That's fairly lame. I was also just a little bit surprised that Gon and Killua didn't have to go back and beat up more challengers to reach the 200th floor again, even though, now that I think of it, such a thing would be virtually impossible to pull off. But they would have anyway. Also, Spike Spencer is doing LA voice roles now? I hope he was the voice of the Beyblade-wielding dude. Naruto: Shippuden: :-X One Piece: Luffy just OD'd on shadows. Let's hope he can maintain sentience long enough to wash my worries of this show away. This was probably the first time in months I became hyped up for OP as a result of watching the episode, and I hope that doesn't change. [stand by for free Peter Chiarelli napkin] Commercials: Sister Wives: This show must be the reason Donald Trump was elected. Bob's Burgers: I am honestly quite amazed that [as] promotes it so much. It's been months since Family Guy was last promoted for new episodes but Bob's has had several of them. Non-Holiday Christmas Specials: Sweet, another night of pilots. The promo even feels like it's from the late 2000's. I'm probably looking forward to The Hindenburg Explodes! the most, if only to see how Rob Corddry can mine such irreverent material out of a tragedy. That doesn't even sound like the kind of show you can sustain for very long. Taco Bell Steakhouse Burrito/Nachos: Taco Bell is my favorite fast food chain of all, so naturally, I've already eaten both of these. In fact, I just had the Steakhouse Burrito today. It didn't even taste that much like its namesake, but it had tons of goopy sour cream, cheese, bacon bits, and the steak, which doesn't really seem all that different from the steak in a Steak Quesadilla, but it's good. And I like how the thing comes with chips and somewhat genuine (spicy!) queso, and not the artificially colored and flavored radioactive orange stuff. I have my guilty pleasures, but real food is always better. Pair that shit up with a Mountain Dew Sangrita Blast (my favorite!), and you're good to go. It's certainly a step up from the Steakhouse Nachos, which I had last week at the recently re-opened renovated Taco Bell on the other side of town (which is a story for another post, since this is getting long), and was unable to finish. That one is definitely meant for sharing with friends, maybe with a burrito of your own on the side. And speaking of the actual commercial, I like the Bell's sudden shift into loose Old Spice-ian surreal humor. They've also came up with the new logo, which looks almost identical in print aside from a strange purple gradient. I could say how it reminds me of the most favorite virtual pet website for most of my life, but then it'd look like I was jacking off. In fact, maybe it was a subliminal message to get me to play Neopets again? [x2]

Bakuon!!, Episode 6: "Prep!!"

WHY ARE THEY MAKING ANIME AT THE SOUP STORE

I came expecting major announcements, but all I got was another Toonami comic. B- troll. Though I guess it's certainly worthy of the distinction.

I understand that reference. ;D Also, at least you didn't have to cross out any TV-MAs.
