  1. That's a great fan art... but looks nothing like Zero Two.
  2. You don't need to use one of the most popular shonen as an example. Basically every major shonen is more popular than the most popular sports anime. Bleach, Fairy Tail, Black Clover, One Piece, DBZ, Soul Eater, Blue Exorcist, Naruto, MHA, Deadman Wonderland... all more popular than any sports anime ever made. I don't think you realize how small the US sports anime fan base is. It's the main reason why Toonami would air something like PTE before even touching a sports anime. In the US it's probably somewhere slightly below slice of life.
  3. They can be as rabid as they want, they're small in number. If anime was being made solely to cater to US desires sports anime wouldn't even exist. But Japan loves it.
  4. Japan loves that stuff. I think there was one about badminton this year, and one about sidecar racing recently. It doesn't matter if the US likes it, they don't care.
  5. It's not that they're bad movies, its Star Wars Fatigue man. We all love Star Wars but we can only see 3 movies every 20 years or we get fatigued. https://screenrant.com/star-wars-franchise-fatigue-break/
  6. My suspicion is that they're trying to keep Franxx on peoples minds so they can get support for a second season.
  7. If Re Zero got dubbed Konosuba will eventually. I've heard good things about Planet With =P PTE can still go eat a bowl of ball soup.
  8. No, it's not. Most sites that try to rank which sports are the most popular in the US put it behind Soccer, Hockey and Boxing. Generally, the US doesn't give a damn about Soccer, and 99 percent of the US probably can't name the Heavyweight champion, as boxing's glory days seem to be behind it. Worldwide it's much bigger. Soccer of course is number 1. http://biggestglobalsports.com/ Describes it as a "medium" sport in the US. As opposed to being huge in a number of other countries. Seems about right. This one puts golf ahead of it. https://www.dailynewsegypt.com/2018/03/08/top-10-popular-sports-united-states/ The number of players that play 21 times or more a year is 5.1 million. That's not a lot of players, and people that are playing less than once every two weeks are basically going to be at the beginner level.
  9. No one wants to see stuff like this dude
  10. He has shown weakness... GET HIM!
  11. Tennis isn't that big in the US. I play at least once a week and even on weekends just about every court in the city will be open. It has a high skill requirement before it actually starts being fun, when you're starting out you're just chasing balls around like an idiot. It discourages a lot of people.
  12. Eren's voice is a little annoying.... but the rest sounds good to me. Funimation dubs aren't good enough for these people anymore? =P
  13. Yeah but come on, PTE was the worst case scenario for comedy. I'm hoping for Konosuba one day so hopefully he doesn't call it quits.
  14. Well for me personally, still watching AOT but.... it's completely lost the magic it had in S1. S2 killed it and S3 hasn't restored it. That's my best guess on why the ratings are that bad.
  15. Don't listen to this guy. Listen to this guy.
  16. Accounting for different tastes aside, it amazes me how people see the massive character inconsistencies and total destruction of everything the heroes of the original saga worked for in addition to the literal breaking of space mechanics in Star Wars as anything but negative. I mean sure, it looked great. I'll give ya that.
  17. It's an entire article about imaginary bread from Franxx. You don't think they're pushing it? They're pushing it.
  18. I blame myself. I was among the people who hurt George's feelings and made him sell to Disney. I thought "Hey... this is exactly what this franchise needs... .Lucas is out of talent and Disney definitely knows how to handle a massive franchise like this." If I find a way to send messages back in time I swear I will do everything I can to make this right.
  19. That was a mercy kill at that point. Anyone with any dignity that worked on that block should have been embarrassed. On a side note, Fantastic Four had another cartoon back then? Who thought that was a good idea? No one cares about the Fantastic Four.
  20. It is, its on 2002. I'm sure they were still playing it when they pulled the plug. That list is all the new shows they were airing from 2005. Our current Toonami lineup is absolutely godly compared to that. I've never even heard of most of those..... Fantastic Four? Megaman? Mar? Blue Dragon? Dice? Gee I wonder why they got canceled.
  21. Is this seriously what they were airing for the last few years before being cancelled? Or am I looking at the wrong data? Yeah I definitely didn't watch Toonami when it was cancelled. D.I.C.E. Zatch Bell! The Batman One Piece Transformers: Cybertron Yu-Gi-Oh! Naruto Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo IGPX (television series) 2006 Wulin Warriors Pokémon Chronicles Fantastic Four: World's Greatest Heroes Pokémon: Battle Frontier Yu-Gi-Oh!

  22. Can I interest you in some Super Milk Chan?
  23. Lol A plus. Sounds like a site you'd go to.
  24. They earned it, definitely one of the top shows of the season. All the plot twists were crazy!
  25. Ok well.... this existed.
