That can be funny if Jim Henson Productions is doing it.

This CG works for a shounen where people punch other people in the face. Not right after Arise.

Yeah, before this.

The baseball game ran nearly to midnight. No surprises here.

Toei is charging too much. Probably why they think a live action show deserves Game of Thrones money.

And he’ll be banned within the day. With Bebop’s production on hold after John Cho’s unfortunate injury, odds are 50/50 whether this stays on further hold, or they work on this in the interim including casting it. Also, Bebop had enough trouble casting Ed (they still haven’t revealed who’s playing her). Casting Luffy is going to be a complete nightmare.

Gun X Sword 18-19. Saint Seiya 1-2.

Well this took a turn. Watch as this is the only news till February.

Considering half the replies I saw to the rumor were essentially “I don’t want to be racist but...” they would use the bare minimum tact. Like if you were grading tact they would pass with a D-.

The only one not airing that surprises me is Shield Hero, because Crunchyroll funds the damn show. It would be as easy as getting gen:Lock was, only no massive scandal about fund appropriation.

Yeah but visual aids always help. Let’s be blunt for a second. Nami gets a ton of fan art because she’s a pretty redhead with ginormous tits (and the fact she‘s one of the more moderate designs in One Piece speaks volumes) and well, her interactions with the crew run the gambit from hilarious to adorable. To cast her with Letitia Wright would have everyone saying the meanest thing they could without sounding racist because she would be beyond miscast.

No, just the original Japanese song. You can’t change the song unless it’s a remake. Then you can have the Struts do the ending.

Just as a reminder that Oda has a list of ethnicities for the crew - But no one wants an ugly Nami.

In a fun example of how crazy Twitter can get, a fake rumor made the rounds of black actress Letitia Wright playing Nami. Everyone lost their shit till it was proven false and people still are cursing her out. When the cast gets announced this will be such a shitshow...

Easier said than done. Even when Hunter finishes up, it probably will never air. At least we know One Piece isn’t coming back, not with what Toei is charging. Guess they need to pay for that Netflix series somehow.

...Moose.

I’m pretty sure Tenchi is done on Toonami after the ratings fail that was GXP. Man was GXP awful. People legit thought we were going to get War on Geminar after that debacle.

Apparently the remake of Legend of the Galactic Heroes has a dub. How is DeMarco on space opera?

Thread title updated and fingers pointing and laughing at Polygon who broke the news of no streaming.

It reminds me of the shitfit Mamuro Nagano (Five Star Stories’ author) threw over his film, Gothicmade. It came out in 2012, is by all accounts incomprehensible, but he refuses to release it to any home media because it’s meant to be experienced in theaters or some shit. There comes a point where artistic integrity, that “these films are meant to be seen on the big screen” is short sighted elitism. BTW, Goodfellas is a frequent stop on HBO On Demand.

I’d compare it to Scorsese going on about true cinema, but The Irishman is going to be on Netflix. It’s a massive revenue stream turned down in the name of short sighted elitism.

Edit - Or literally a day later. Well, it’s not TV, it’s HBO. And Polygon’s credibility goes further down the toilet.

ANN’s staff are apparently friends with people working on the show (they bought it up as a positive show during the whole Shield Hero kerfuffle). Because Crunchyroll hasn’t mentioned the damn thing once.

Finished Seis Manos, and now I’m doing something strange, playing One Piece Pirate Warriors 3. Basically the equivalent of injecting a decade of One Piece into my veins as I expect to hear more news on the Netflix series. Also Blade of the Immortal 1.
