Pop Team Epic, Episode 7: "Hellshake Yano"
rpgamer replied to Blatch's topic in Episode Discussion Archive
Admittedly, Hellshake Yano was an interesting sketch. Like, they even went so far as to draw the back of the head on the proceeding sheet of paper during the head banging. That was well done. I'm sure it's no coincidence that the best part of the show so far has been completely devoid of actual animation. -
boyfriend is going on a trip to montana next month

We're supposed to believe you have a boyfriend, and also that someone is willingly going to Montana? -
We can memetically pretend we hate Pop Team Epic all we want
rpgamer replied to mochi's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
I don't disagree with the idea, because yeah, the shounen has kinda gotten out of hand (or maybe BC just makes it feel that way with being too over the top). I guess I recognize that it's pretty much always been all shounen. But would it kill them to get something more in the vein of Black Lagoon once in a while? Idk. I'm just biased and personally want something with a little more depth than what we're getting. -
Sounds generic enough that they could've thought they were being totally original and clever.

How much doesn't fit into your car? Might even be cheap enough to consider mailing the excess to your destination. Pods and similar services seem more designed for "moving my whole (small) apartment" situations, as such, probably never worth it if it's just stuff sans furniture.

Is it weird that I expected this to be about pegging?

I would gladly watch GXP again if it were to replace PTE. -
Considering at least one or two major voice actors are dead, unlikely.

I've also just realized you would have to install this after you've taken a shit. Hopping around with your pants around your ankles, squeezing that shit smear up your whole crack, fiddling around with this thing in the bowl where you've just taken a shit. Better hope you got it good and clean last time you used it, or you're just smearing shit all over your hands trying to get this in place. At that rate, if you really want to save on toilet paper, you may as well just wipe your ass with your hand and save yourself the trouble.

Smear? I'm imagining once it's all clogged up with ass hair, shit's gonna be splattered from floor to ceiling.

Soooo, has anybody asked how that thing is supposed to stay clean?

What about subjectively judging whether something simply damaged the block's image? My main reason for picking on PoT was just how out of place it seemed, same as PTE. No matter how well it turns out, nothing can change how much it just doesn't really fit in. I really don't like a lot of the choices happening lately (Jojo needs to be put out to pasture, Hunter doesn't really seem to know what story it wants to tell, Black Clover is... yeah), but nothing ever made me look and ask "What is this doing on Toonami?" Like, how do you even fit anything PTE into one of Toonami's iconic thematic ads? The ones where they take clips from a bunch of different shows and put together something with a cohesive vibe, such as the new one we just got. I'd have to go back and check, but was anything PTE present in that? Is there anything you can pull out of the show to really complement the rest of the block in that same way? Personal bias says no, not really. Nothing about the show really belongs. Idk. I just find the ratings argument to lack a lot of context and nuance. Let's be real, a Family Guy marathon every week could probably beat out Toonami ratings. Toonami needs to keep viewers, sure, but I feel like even if this is a success in that regard, it comes at the cost of Toonami's identity. But that's just my opinion, and I've been known to have unreasonable expectations. -

Yeah. Casshern would certainly be up there. But if we wanted to go back to pre-[as] (and still anime), I'd probably see Prince of Tennis as a good runner up. I don't care how good it may have been, a sports anime (tennis, no less) on a kids' ostensibly-action-oriented block was poorly thought out. -

I'm sure it has a lot of competition, but I'd certainly nominate it for biggest mistake made by Toonami. -
Barbara did and look how that turned out. God, what an unnecessary addition to The Killing Joke.

naruto Naruto Shippuden Episode 212 Discussion
rpgamer replied to StarPanda's topic in Episode Discussion Archive
I'd like to believe Sakura is just cozying up to Sasuke so she can slap some sense into him. But it's a lot easier to believe Sakura really is that desperate. Really would've liked to see Sasuke kill Karin while staring at Sakura, just to make a point. But what really bugged me most about this episode was in Sai's attempt to stop everybody from the suicide mission, they all forgot about Sakura who fully intended to go alone anyway. Bit of a failure on everyone's part there. -
Nah. Try the Plakat betta instead. It's a betta, but without all the fancy finnage. Basically looks like a girl.

It strikes me as Minecraft meets gmod.

Clearly the solution is lots of hair gel. Mousse. Pomade. Whatever it takes. -
mha My Hero Academia Episode 11 Discussion!!!
rpgamer replied to OwlChemist81's topic in Episode Discussion Archive
Had a thought. With Eraserhead having such an obvious tell of his hair flying out when he's using his quirk, wouldn't it have been smarter for him to just have a shorter hair style? Amateur move, letting your enemies have information like that. Especially when he seems to be using his glasses/goggles whatever to hide the staring aspect. -
Bojack Horseman is going to Comedy Central
rpgamer replied to CatSoul's topic in Movies & Television
I found it really jarring to see KotH start airing on CC. That really feels like a terrible fit. Can only wonder if the only reason they picked it up is to just get to say they stole something else from [as].- 2 replies

DeMarco reveals another reason One Piece got kicked out
rpgamer replied to Lawliet720's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
If we're going down the list, I'd add the name as a contributing factor to it flopping. Would it be unreasonable to say that most of the anime targeted at kids, at least back in the day, had names that were easily related to some element of the show? I submit that "One Piece" simply failed to really cement what the show was in the minds of the audience. But I also admit that I'm also biased against the show. Anyway, this is all hindsight talking, and there's no real way to know if this was changed or that, it might've gotten more attention or not. Believing it totally could've gotten a bigger following if it was handled better is just as biased on the other end. As someone that never really cared for it, looking back, I can't imagine a better dub changing my opinion. What [as] aired wasn't much different to what we started with however long ago. -
Kinda curious how much of KN's legal issues (whatever they were) would just magically disappear if we didn't have some of these trash users... Gotta say, the time when at least one of these was forced away was definitely one of the best board experiences I've seen in a while. It's so nice when threads don't get immediately derailed when one of a number of posters decides to open their hole of choice.
