  1. Well, I still have no idea what they plan on doing with Pidge yet. Also, next season, Lotor was a gigantic creep towards Allura in the old series with a massive Oedipus complex. I could easily see that being used to confirm Keith and Allura's relationship.
  2. I don't know. If Keith had a personality in the first half I would actually agree with you, but for the first season he was a store mannequin that knew kickboxing. Now he has a personality, and he clearly feels lonely, feels isolated, and apparently really cares about Allura and what she thinks of him.
  3. They addressed the Shiro/Keith stuff at least. Shiro seems to be Keith's surrogate brother. Keith flat out says Shiro is a brother to him.
  4. Season 2 hit, and the same fujioshi who pushed the Asian guy into a gay relationship when he had no personality are now pissed he has a personality...and apparently has feelings for the black girl. "Oh he has no chemistry! Oh they need to be platonic!" Fuck off.
  5. It's like they want me to hate this show. http://www.polygon.com/tv/2017/1/18/14301768/voltron-legendary-defenders-season-2-netflix Everyone go watch Knights of Sidonia instead. It's on Netflix, there's a genderfluid character that isn't tactless fan girl bait...and it has a lot more giant robot fights.
  6. We have those too. It's just usually they're not made into cartoons.
  7. Anyway, I imagine a slice of life show like this has a far easier point of entry than OP's massive continuity. Easier to make new fans.
  8. Steampunk Walking Dead? Yeah, for a show based on the zombie genre it felt rather unique.
  9. If the Hollywood adaptation of Naruto changes the ending, it will probably end up killing Sasuke. I would call that a marked improvement.
  10. You re-created a thread that got deleted? This will not end well.
  11. Blame Toei. They apparently will only let Luffy be voiced by a woman and screen said voices.
  12. Since a certain someone isn't here, I will say that One Piece made a terrible first impression on Toonami. 4Kids took a silly show and made it sillier while excising or altering all the dramatic moments, Then to add insult to injury, Toonami's first arc re-introducing OP? One of the silliest arcs and reinforcing all the bad memories 4Kids gave people.
  13. You're still dealing with a tainted product. Although starting with a comedy arc and reinforcing everyone's negative feelings towards One Piece was incredibly dumb.
  14. It was just Mochi bringing up the ONLY thing he brings up. Again.
  15. All ratings save DBZ are the shits apparently.
  16. Latest, IBO, then Season 2 of Kuromukuro. Kurmukuro is so much better than Voltron it's not even funny, which is strange considering the pitch is "Inu-Yasha with giant robots and less filler or people yelling names." Actually, wait, that's freaking awesome.
  17. The final episode...20 years after the fact. Although everything said has
  18. Whole thing is on Netflix dubbed.
  19. Needs Bo Jackson.
  20. Lazzo comes off as a complete asshole here. "Fuck you, we won't sell it, we won't make more, Metalocalypse dies because I personally do not find it funny," That is such bullshit.
  21. He's a parody of those "too dangerous to hang out with others" teammates in superhero books. Youngblood was full of them.
  22. From what I understand, Mero Mero is based specifically into attraction to the user but it's a moot point given all the retcons. He is asexual.
  23. Depends. In Goku's case, it was a vehicle to have kids for the next season. Personally I think it's a small miracle he knew what sex was (and not to mention the old Man of Steel, woman of Kleenex bit.). It only works as a comedy where the punchline is "he's been roped into this and has no idea how or why). If anyone suggested otherwise (like there was genuine love) I would laugh at them. In the case of One Piece, Luffy has been shown to be attracted to all of one woman in Nami and Oda apparently retconned that in the dumbest way possible. If he ended up with Boa, unless it's another "she tricked him but he has no sexual drive, LOL" it would be beyond ludicrous. I guess because they're shown as asexual and not caring it works as that one joke, but if you're going to convince me they're serious, especially in Oda's case where he retcons anything that suggests Luffy is anything but asexual (like Strong World where it feels all but stated in the message Luffy doesn't hear that Nami loves him.) You do not put all this effort into ensuring he's asexual and then suddenly give him a libido.
  24. That would be great. Make it non-issue.
