  1. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2017-02-20/hulu-streams-5-mobile-suit-gundam-anime-series/.112498 Wing, SEED, 00, the 08th MS team, and The Origin up in their entirety.
  2. Not having romance in and of itself isn't the problem. I've praised the Voltron reboot (and bemoaned the parasites from the Steven Universe fandom wanting nothing but gay romance, idiots) for not having endless romantic drama like say, Korra, which did and it sucked eggs. The problem is the constant displays of titilation, sexual elements, and huge breasts, coupled with Oda indulging his macro fetish every other arc, are juxtaposed with most of the leads being asexual. It creates this utterly bizarre contrast that really cannot be addressed.
  3. A series that is so 80's-tastic that 80's nostalgia is a plot point. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2017-02-21/aic-ad-new-megazone-23-pretty-sammy-projects-in-the-works/.112515 Also more Tenchi Muyo stuff even though that horse is dead and turned to glue.
  4. Which means Oda had more time to fix his weakness instead of CONSTANTLY REPEATING IT. If you don't bring up romance, instead of near endlessly parading this bizarre parade of sexuality while saying they're all asexual jellyfish, people would complain a lot less. This is probably why Meliodas the shameless pervert in Seven Deadly Sins is such a relief.
  5. Well the proper Season 2 is hitting later this year. Maybe they thought it was easier than saying 4 episode side story.
  6. The problem is that like most bad writers, Oda constantly calls attention to it. "THEY ARE IN LOVE WITH ADVENTURE ISN'T THAT GREAT I'M GOING TO SAY IT ANOTHER TEN THOUSAND TIMES." I mean yikes.
  7. It wasn't his choice, he sort of chanced into it, and then kept doing it because it became a positive role model regardless of the truth. Which are headcanons in general, aren't they? This could be a commentary on that.
  8. That's cross dressing, not transsexual. Which is a classic gag rather than a sexuality.
  9. Well that's just laziness. And apps are important, especially given how people consume content.
  10. Out. Now. Episode 7 was a freaking joy compared to what had passed for Star Wars.
  11. Will that ever get old?
  12. It's a shounen started in the early 2000's. The lead is asexual.
  13. Trail of Tears falls under Native American genocides. But that's semantics.
  14. Isn't this like refusing to watch Hollywood films because of the Trail of Tears, Japanese internment, Guantanamo Bay, and the KKK?
  15. I dunno, I like having my Saturday nights free. Usually, TV is what I do when I don't have other stuff to do. A half hour here, 45 minutes there, etc. The way people watch television has fundamentally changed from 15, 10, or even 5 years ago.
  16. The rise of On Demand continues to hurt cable. Who's looking forward to Iron Fist?
  17. Is it bad I was hoping for a limited theatre release like Killing Joke got and Inhumans is getting? Ah well.
  18. Keep in mind it was 2007 and their only long runner was Bleach, coincidentally, their only successful show.
  19. Well it was terrible. And the ratings were low. So accurate predictions for all! What was popular when Moribito was fucking up the ratings? I know it was around the Geass instead of Gurren debacle.
  20. I have no opinion of Fairy Tail having never seen an episode but considering how long it's been available someone at Williams Street must have a personal dislike of the show. Like it drives them unreasonably angry.
  21. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/daily-briefs/2017-02-17/sword-art-online-film-ends-with-sao-will-return-teaser/.112381 It's up to you if that's an promise or a threat.
  22. At which point they need to wonder why they aired it in the first place. "We have a show no one likes, will do terrible, but fuck all of you, it's 2007, and we sure as hell aren't airing Fairy Tail."
  23. It's really not. Everyone agrees it was silly but you act like it killed people.
