  1. G is so different from the others it doesn’t really fit in. It has similar themes, but the execution is that of a wuxia Film.
  2. I say it depends on cable trends as a whole. If Netflix keeps pulling anime wet dreams out of their asses and presents them to the public at large, giving them mainstream attention, Dandy reruns aren’t going to do jack. Speaking of which, a damn Godzilla anime movie is debuting at the end of the month from the Urobutcher.
  3. It did. It also blew up the Twittersphere. Even so, football playoffs were on too.
  4. I’m kinda wondering how much Devilman Crybaby took away from the non-DBZ audience. Someone tweet DeMarco.
  5. Black Clover is real soiler. Between it soiling the sheets, playoff football, and every single anime fan watching Devilman Crybaby on Netflix, it was a bad time.
  6. ...This is just Beavis and Butthead for weebs, isn’t it? Then again Beavis and Butthead is cool, so maybe that’s not a bad thing.
  7. Just finished Band of Brothers, so now I’m watching The Pacific. I blame Call of Duty.
  8. Devilman Crybaby 9-10. Welp, that was a thing. Brilliant and horrible all at once. Watch it, but prepare for one hell of a gut punch.
  9. I guess they thought the best idea was to fight boobs with boobs but got carried away with their newfound freedom (it was around that time context was loosened so they could say “shit” unbleeped.)
  10. There’s a 70’s TV show that’s only really the base concept, two OVA’s, neither of which adapted the actual ending, and a crossover with Cyborg 009. This is the first 1:1 adaptation of the manga, with elements updated for the modern day.
  11. Devilman Crybaby 1-8.
  12. This also isn’t the first time this has happened. Remember when they wanted to air The Woman Called Fujiko Mine, BS&P said “lolnope” and they got stuck airing Champloo? Meanwhile Netflix is airing Devilman Crybaby where whoever was animating it wanted to go full hentai at points.
  13. Yes, and very minor spoiler, the demon raves/orgies are back.
  14. That’s certainly the right way to describe Dandy. An experience. A very experimental show, which is probably why only half of the episodes really work.
  15. Or “Paranoia will kill us all.” You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, and you WILL wince at the content.
  16. At least that was new.
  17. That would be the dumbest fucking move they could make.
  18. “Netflix offered more.”
  19. It sucks but man that’s a late time. Better than putting Star Blazers 2199 at that hour.
  20. Strike was destined to fail. Money on top of your service fee always does. But if it’s free alongside Tick episodes, that’s a challenge.
  21. Anime Strike, Amazon’s exclusive anime Service, has been rolled into Amazon Prime proper. Meaning another opponent for Toonami snapping up exclusives.
  22. They probably realized competing with Netflix means not piecemealing.
  23. It is, but Guilty Gear (where it was debuted) won’t get the casuals in the way DBZ does. It’s sort of ingrained into athlete culture as something silly that nevertheless inspired a LOT of kids to work out.
  24. Once again showing the Grand Canyon style gulf between Dragonball and other shows on the block.
  25. Lol. By 2023 I half expect Netflix or Amazon Prime to have exclusive rights to the NBA, to say nothing of the metric fucktons of anime all the big streamers seem to want to create.
