  1. Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
  2. Lazy? No, goodness no. Guy pumps out the new Dragon Quest that takes up all of Togashi's time every year. Frank Miller = Outdated. His once revolutionary writing style comes off as forced, stilted, and unfunny. Who hear really finds DB Super funny? Show of hands.
  3. http://www.rollingstone.com/tv/features/how-cult-toon-samurai-jack-finally-returned-to-tv-w471848 Jack is doing business.
  4. Lucha Underground Seasons 1 and 2 are now on Netflix. You are out of excuses to not watch it.
  5. Never saw that one. Hate watching! Woo!
  6. No, the solution is clearly more blood, boobs and edge. Look at Akame.
  7. Card ran 10pm-12:30am on FS1. Easy to tuck in a Jack ep during the undercard and come back for the co-main and main. Good card too. Ton of KO's.
  8. Considering Super's reviews are in the toilet (Look, GT was bad but it was short and the last third of the series is considered a lot better), I would say yes.
  9. *looks at this weeks ratings* No wonder Tokyo Ghoul is replacing OP.
  10. Jack is back. Everything else is dead as a doornail. And March Madness didn't officially start till Tuesday! There was a UFC Fight Night, but ouch.
  11. It was funny...the first couple of times. Now it's just tired.
  12. I would hardly go that far. It kept getting pushed because people thought it could be this ubiquitous iconic success. It became successful to a degree, but never to the degree people wanted. Otherwise companies wouldn't keep abandoning it.
  13. The proof is in the cancellation. Look, a lot of properties get a niche audience here but aren't household names. Asterix, Doctor Who, etc. But hardcore One Piece fans always expected this to be the next Simpsons and that was never going to happen.
  14. I didn't say "it's bad because I don't like it", but it's bad for a bunch of other reasons.
  15. If it is that good why has the series never made new fans? It airs on Tv and people go "Oh. That. I don't like that." Here's proof. http://www.toonzone.net/forums/threads/one-piece-is-leaving-toonami-adult-swim.5589562/
  16. Can we finally admit that One Piece...isn't that good? It was first acquired as a tacked on requirement to another deal, Toei has tried to market it for years here with less and less success (see games going form physical releases to download only for one console). It has been released over and over to a smaller and smaller audience. The story is ham fisted, the pacing abysmal, the characters devlolved into utter caricatures at this point, the stories lacking depth and emotional resonance, and the art style has never appealed to the West. It looks goofy and boring because it is.
  17. They tried with One Piece for FOUR YEARS. Four years of failure. Hiatus will be over in two.
