See, I presume this is why they want to make the live action version and give it Game of Thrones money. Am I the only one intrigued by the idea, even if it ends up being the most expensive trainwreck since Cats? It is so antithetical to what Americans like in their anime that getting people on board will be very hard.

Fire Force season 2 confirmed - First visual revealed
Jman replied to Jman's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
The show did well enough to justify another season. Which probably means we’ll see it edited on Toonami a few months after it shows up unedited on FUNiNow. If we were solely measuring quality would we be on SAO number what, four? Five? -
Ip Man 4 - 8/10 Great kung fu fights, good drama, kinda hilariously straw man villains, but they’re fun to see get beaten up.

Why does 2.5D Dragonball stuff look better than most 2.5D cartoons?
Jman replied to Jman's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
And then they have to add in all sorts of interactive assets, also that’s hardly always the case. It’s just weird that the technology for a lot of these companies produces stuff that is easily viewed as inferior, then you get Dragonball stuff (or Arc System Works items in general) where one needs to really squint to tell the difference. Case in point - Dragon Prince trailer - And some FighterZ footage - -
2.5D animation sucks for a lot of people. Especially you Dragon Prince. Once in a while you get something good like Land of the Lustrious but for the most part you get stuff that looks...off. The sole exception seems to be stuff involving Dragonball. FighterZ, using the proprietary Arc System Works engine is well known for how good it looks, but Bandai is now making an adventure game, and their demonstration of the visuals was a remake of the old opening - Looks pretty good compared to Dragon Prince, right? Why is this the only thing they can get it right with consistently?

after Toonami's Edit of the second fire force Opening
Jman replied to CountFrylock's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
This is the issue watching stuff on cable. It’s not going to change given the format. -
From everything I’m hearing, the film goes out of its way to take a dump on TLJ. Which...good, but it probably explains why critics hate it. “Where’s Rose? How dare you kowtow?”
-
Here I thought you’d be happy with it, since the film allegedly goes out of its way to shit on TLJ.

after Toonami's Edit of the second fire force Opening
Jman replied to CountFrylock's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
The whole idea is that it’s supposed to get you hyped for the show. I get airtime restrictions but that’s another argument for On Demand. I mean, Star Blazers 2199 works just a bit better because of its opening - -
Sym-Bionic Titan is on Netflix because Netflix loves giant robots
Jman replied to Jman's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
Boring AND with writers that were self confessed haters of mecha! To the point they told Bandai to piss off from merchandise because they wanted giant robots in the giant robot show. Titan really was several years too early, the tail end of Cartoon Network’s degeneration into endless TT Go marathons. If it had the power of streaming, it would have been a much different story. -
schedule Toonami Shows Ending in Early 2020
Jman replied to OwlChemist81's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
I still want to see Star Blazers/Yamato on a bigger platform than FUNiNow be it Toonami or Netflix. It is the space opera remake America deserves (yeah fuck you Voltron). And considering a Part III is coming out, there’s a lot of episodes if they go that route. -
will you be watching both marathons for Xmas And New Years?
Jman replied to CountFrylock's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
I don’t see why.
