  1. "Mike Lazzo being decapitated" is good, but it's got nothing on "22 uninterrupted minutes of Mike Lazzo screaming".
  2. All you need to know is that Gemusetto Machu Picchu is the Perfect Hair Forever of the 2010s, and love it or hate it, it is an absolute experience.
  3. On second thought, it makes more sense to put it here than in the Toonami board. Oh well. https://imgur.com/a/FFIVSxe#yUATrkH
  4. Guess which custom responses are mine. 😋 https://imgur.com/a/FFIVSxe#yUATrkH
  5. Hey, better suffering through this than a certain other J.C Staff-produced jiggle-service anime. Then again, Eiken's only two episodes, so maybe it's better to suffer through it than the long runner that's the Food Wars animated franchise? MY HERO ACADEMIA - Am I the only one who finds it amusing that the localization for the Precure knockoff is relying on referencing the American "Glitter Squad" moniker instead? DR. STONE - It was nice seeing the rest of the story about Senkuu's dad (adoptive), at least until it decided to go full "series finale of Six Feet Under" on us. Part of me wonders how different the series would be if Tsukasa was just left in stone, ignoring the lions he was revived to kill. ONE PUNCH MAN - God, I'm enjoying Garo way more than I should. The Human Monster really does have a bit of humanity left in him after all. Still, sucks what he did to Megane, and what he'd have done to Genos had Bang and his brother not stepped in. FIRE FORCE - It's funny how Hinawa and Arthur's fight scenes were excitement incarnate - seriously, they were some damn kickass fight scenes - and then Lisa (fuck you, I am not calling her Feeler from now on) comes onscreen and all of my goodwill is chucked out the window like an irate gamer's TV. Fire Force: the show we all have a love-hate relationship with. Unless you're either Gunners or Queen, in which case it's just hate-hate. FOOD WARS! - I might not like the dudebros as much as some of the others, but I did enjoy their running commentary. At least we now know that Zenji's gimmick is using his intelligence in the kitchen as opposed to any specific specialty, and I'm surprised he managed to place so high. Then again, we still have Soma and Hiyama to get through, so he's gonna be knocked to a lower tier eventually. DEMON SLAYER - Shame about what happened to Susamaru. Damn shame. Yahaba can rot in demon hell, though, so it balances out. Oh no, blonde slayer boy turned out to be Miroku as portrayed by Asta, I don't expect this to pan out all that well. BLACK CLOVER - In lieu of comments about Mereoleona's good effort and Asta and Zora's clever if not reckless mode of attack, allow me to regale you with my experience watching the first episode of Mugyutto! Black Clover, the first episode of an eight-part short series on a super-exclusive Japanese streaming service that somehow managed to get subs early this year (read: last week). I decided to kill some time watching it, so I thought I'd check it out. In short... it isn't all that good. The "story" - Asta trying to improve his chances of becoming the Wizard King while the Black Bulls watch from the sidelines, also Sally is there too for some reason - is a little fun, yeah, but the animation quality is poorer than the regular Clover Clips (no surprise), some of the Japanese voices are too weird (namely Asta's screechiness, Gauche sounding super-deep, Luck sounding way more feminine, and Magna being voiced by someone besides Ian Sinclair), and the inevitable employment of the dreaded rapid-fire one-note character quirk marathon that is the Black Bulls, which is at least expected compared to Yami being reduced to a punchline regarding his chronic constipation, duck-shaped training toilet and all. You're better off marathoning the dubbed Clover Clips segments like we did that one time Charmy ate some bad shrooms. VENTO AUREO - You can't not love the creativity Araki employs with the characters' various STANDs. Sale using his "freeze in place" ability to scale heights on a bunch of suspended gravel was admittedly one of the most exciting parts of the episode, barring the final blow of course. NARUTO SHIPPUDEN - Not sure if filler, canon, or both. I should've been able to call that Neji was the killer all along, but sometimes I'm just a sucker for these obvious cliches. Also there was no reason for that video game review to have been as long as it was, even if there was some high quality TOM and SARA banter in there.
  6. The Simpsons Game for the PS2. Started that shit on Christmas, and finished it within the week. It was fun, though I don't know what they were thinking making the hardest level of the game - not even the final level, no less! - the focus of the XBox demo my cousin-in-law tried out. As for games I don't own, I started playing my uncle's unused XB1S download of Forza Horizon 3 last Christmas, which got me interested in the franchise enough to ask for an XB1S of my own and Forza Horizon 4 for my most recent birthday.
  7. Endless Waltz and SIGN were on Toonami/SVES, so I can't say I'm too taken aback, but F91 is a surprise. I guess Char's Counterattack did well enough for them on ASA that they decided to put another Gundam movie on VOD for those with access that were interested?
  8. That title card was cool af. Rewrite was the other one. I can't recall if it was full or shortened (probably the latter), but I remember the OP being preserved in some way. By the way, does anyone know what other anime were [as] VOD-exclusive besides pre-2005 s-CRY-ed? Arjuna and Argento Soma are the only ones I can recall those who brought the topic up mentioning.
  9. Another TMGE album. Not as great as High Time, but still pretty good. Sekai no Owari is perfection.
  10. Kengan Ashura #12: Father and Son Senran Kagura: Shinovi Master #12: HOMETOWN Run with the Wind #18: And Then, Morning Flowers of Evil #7: Episode 7 Love, Chunibyo! & Other Delusions #3: The Heretical... Twintail The Qwaser of Stigmata #1: The Trembling Night BONUS IMAGE
  11. The Qwaser of Stigmata 1
  12. Mugyutto! Black Clover 1 (test-watch) If anything, this should make what I watch later in the night a little more tolerable, not that it needed it to begin with. 😏

  15. I have the occasional fond memory of CSW, but I don't necessarily miss it, not after they insulted half the anime I watched new in 2012. But if you're looking for ways you can get back in touch with some of the faces you don't see anymore, there's always MAL. That's how I got back in touch with FayeWorshipper69, even if it was only to tell him I picked up Freezing just to spite him for saying nobody should watch it nine years ago.
  16. Fesh Pince of Blair 1-2 Love, Chunibyo & Other Delusions! 3
  17. I'm actually expecting them to be offered Plunderer at some point, and I base this off the fact that FUNimation announced the English cast months before the show premiered, implying they're on the production committee, and the only two anime where FUNi's been on the committee (Dimension W and Fire Force) have aired/are currently airing on the block.
  18. Wait, you're telling me you've never heard of the Nutshack before? Ohhhhh man, it's both good and bad that you don't.
  19. Flowers of Evil 7
  20. At least it's several steps up from The Nutshack.
  21. Durarara!!, Mob Psycho 100, and Kuromukuro are my personal top 3, I can guarantee you that much.
  22. Let me fix your link for you: https://www.sankakucomplex.com/2019/08/18/tamaki-kotatsu-ero-gallery-all-fired-up/ (WARNING: If you really don't want to see hentai fanart of Tamaki, avoid clicking the link, even out of morbid curiosity.)
