First look -

After dipping their toes in with those movie showings, the series proper have been licensed.

Bastard!! 5-6. This show is a rocket of horny that keeps accelerating. The thing is, it’s very tongue in cheek and self aware.

Bouncing between Stranger Things and Keenan and Kel. The latter is a cool down for the former.

Seeing a surprising amount of female fans for this show. I think it’s because Dark Schneider is coming off as “InuYasha, but horny”.

“YOU WILL LOVE FLCL AGAIN DAMMIT! Sure Crunchyroll has ALL the anime and Netflix is airing the horniest anime since Kakegurui in Bastard!, but we have The Pillows!”

Bastard!! 3-4. This show got really horny all of a sudden.

As long as it isn’t as horny as Bastard!!, there’s a chance.

Just keep it the hell away from Netflix.

Husk, hell’s bartender. Which is funny because accusations against Vivzie for being a crap boss probably make her want booze.

Bastard!! 1-2

Mistakes happen. What's important is they get fixed.

Even the opening is full of blood, ass, and side boob. But it also has DS going completely shirtless as well. So it evens out somewhat.

Well I certainly won’t object to people getting to see it.

To really emphasize how slim the pickings are, Crunchyroll just debuted Paranoia Agent. Well, debuted may be the wrong word, but there it is.

Insert Redo of Healer joke here.

Any more delays and they’ll have to call it Uzumaki Forever.

Crunchyroll, to show they have the license, released the first three episodes subbed for free on YouTube. No set date on the dub, but enjoy RWBY actually looking good.

All this stuff costs money. Making new shows costs money. Licensing DC shows costs money. Taking some crappy web animation and hiring SHAFT to give it a glow up from QUALITY to genuine Sakuga costs money. And by their own admission, they don’t have any. So what do you do?

Permission to fail at ratings - [granted]

We need to find a new equivalent of Moribito that someone hasn't licensed, have an ad where Toonami admits the show will bomb, and then it will be a cemented dark age.

Crunchyroll/HiDive/Netflix have everything, and they don't want to share. Really, what else can people expect at this point? Toonami still has no budget, and with the CR partnership up in smoke due to the merger and sale to Sony, Sentai's purchase by AMC for reasons that still escape most of the business world, and precious few studios that still want to play ball, there's only so much you can do to stretch the dollar. You know it's bad when Warner still owns Rooster Teeth (for however little value that studio has) and Crunchyroll got the RWBY anime. Speaking of, this is what it feels like Toonami can put out - This is what Crunchyroll can put out -

The subbed version is out, and Episodes 1-3 are essentially a short form recap of the original RWBY Season 1, before it's set to go in an original direction. But, the animation, wow. I need SHAFT to look at more Western cartoons with shitty animation and give them this level of glow up.
