And got remade.

Diane is the fucking poster girl for that now. Back on topic: Toriyama took a certain glee in making Japanese Superman Japanese Asexual Homer Simpson. Luffy mighty as well be a jellyfish, but he isn't selfish. It's almost a shame he is a jellyfish because some of the scenes of him trying to cheer up Nami and offer her food when she was sick were adorable.

That and not cockblock his buddy. He's the macrophile. Don't look that up.

Diane? He just seems more hung up on his old love so he has the nice little cross section where he doesn't want a serious relationship, yet respects her too much to grope her (he actually says it out loud that he doesn't grope her because he has way too much respect for her).

This is why Meliodas > Goku and Luffy. Wrong magazine I know.

That's because Goku has a one track mind. The thing about Superman and why he's so timeless is that he's reinterpreted differently in all his appearances depending on the writer. The Golden Age version was an enforcer who doled out justice to those the system couldn't help. Silver Age writers alternated between him being an angel of mercy and a sociopathic dick to his friends when they schemed to find out his identity/try to marry him. Optimistic writers portray him as everything from a pacifist to a system rattler for justice. Cynical writers seem his as a tool of the powers that be, while the most cynical writer on Earth, Garth Ennis, views him as a symbol of all that's right about America and immigration, essentially casting aside old grudges and helping the people of his new land. Goku? None of that. Eat, sleep, fight, repeat. Maybe conquer the streak somewhere in there. Luffy, for all his many faults, seems to have people around him to direct him. Goku doesn't nor does he want to interrupt his schedule. At least that's Super's version. GT made him childish but he was ultimately heroic and responsible. It's reminiscent of Homer Simpson's decay.

Goku in Super is less Japanese Superman and more Japanese Homer Simpson from what I've seen. Still better than Luffy.

People in the US know who Goku is?

It was NOTHING like that. They were not flirting with other men (the only one flirting is Lance and he's clearly heterosexual). They were not having long stares into each other's eyes. The bond was familial, but fuck if we can't have those anymore. And of course there was this: As seen in a Gundam movie actually, which means they know a lot more about giant robot cartoons than the Voltron Force writers did.

Well I would have dropped it if they had thrown away all the character dynamics for the "lol, space gays" BS tumblr keeps trying to push. The show is supposed to be for everyone.

I'm (mostly) joking. :L

And Mochi wants this show on Toonami...

I need to do a rewatch myself, now that I'm not yelling at it for taking up AS timeslots. (Jack is back and it's totes adult now! Blood! Boobs! Cursing! Guns!)

So...Tumblr where everyone is gay and "The straights" want to ruin everything. As much as I want to punch Tumblrinas in their crooked ass teeth, I think you're overreacting to Mochi.

Or you know, watch Netflix. They have a crap ton of anime. And Iron Fist.

These ratings are the shits.

"We're totes adult! BLOOD!" To be fair, the censorship with the oil was so blatant that Genndy made fun of it himself in a Duck Dodgers episode.

I guess the idea is to hype the parent brand but I have to agree. If the idea is "Jack is back and he's for adults!" then give the rub to the block with the adult shows. We got a while till the next AOT anyway.

That's gotta lead to some strange arguments. "Honey, I literally DID NOT have a body for a few years! There's only so much I can do when I'm a ghost! That's how you end up with the kid from the Sixth Sense." "Oh don't bring the Sixth Sense into this again!"

Technically...Goku wasn't wrong. He was literally dead. His body was atomized.

Don't ask why they're dressed a certain way. Philosophers have struggled for decades to find the answer.

He also considers Moribito good when that show was a crime against humanity. But yeah, only so many ways to say a show sucks. Let's move on.

Do I need to watch the Archie version of Twin Peaks when Showtime has the actual Twin Peaks? Just saying.

Sneaky Pete on Amazon Prime. This show is moving really fast. In a good way.
