The current generation of kids uses Netflix. US action cartoons are dead - Flash and Arrow killed them, and to a lesser extent Agents of SHIELD.

Cannon God Exaxxion will get an anime right when Karate Minoru does. In other words: Never.

Ok, that isn't a bad thing. It doesn't mean Marco is trans though. Why the fuck does he have to be trans? He seems quite happy being a male.

5 days a week vs 1 day a week. Do the math.

There was that trans Dimension episode which had a male Star, among others. Trans Marco isn't canon. Princess Marco is because it's a joke.

Figure skating is lame. I've said it before, sports anime, unless they're combat sports, don't really interest me too much because it's either a sport I dislike (figure skating) or the focus is lame. Ping Pong only really works because the art is so unique. I still want a Karate Minoru series.

People are starting to realize Super has more in common with The Simpsons than Man of Steel. They aren't happy. Goku is totally Homer Simpson except ludicrously strong.

Actually logic dictates Yuri would be over faster.

*looks off at Mob Psycho 100* Really?

GOD NO!

I'm an old man. I prefer the older aesthetic to the modern, softer ones.

That might be a Toei demand vs something they can fix.

CAN-CEL ONE PIECE! *clap clap clap clap clap*

Even if you argue that there was a base appeal in the US past its initial nostalgia (Tenchi was so radically different from anything on TV back then, not so much now), the plot has become such a convoluted mess and the writing suffered so much that most of its initial appeal is gone.

That's horrid by any standards.

There's a documentary on Netflix about the unearthing of them.

I don't want it, which makes the sexual humor all the odder.

Except in pushing the sexuality in everything but our asexual cast, they keep reminding us of it. It gets even better when it's too sexual and Oda has to retcon it into being asexual again. Why did you go there in the first place? Your post-Alabasta excuse of "he was just imitating Ussop so Luffy getting off on topless women doesn't count". You could have not made the joke. Or had Strong World's climax with Nami's message specifically refer to the crew because pirates and adventures rather than end it with it sounding like a confession to her man to save her. It's confused as hell.

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.

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.

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.

Well the proper Season 2 is hitting later this year. Maybe they thought it was easier than saying 4 episode side story.

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.

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.
