Page 2 replies Yep. I'm guessing either an animation error or that was where the commercial break originally was.

I had a feeling this episode would be your favorite/least hated. I was going to suggest that, but then I realized that of everyone there, only Yuno knows about his nun love. ONE PUNCH MAN - Oh wow, Fubuki's more of a bitch than I initially thought. Oh well, at least Saitama showed that he's no pushover like she thought. And Sonic getting his ass kicked is always fun. Oh yeah, and there's that Garou guy. I don't give a shit about the other criminals, but I hope that Blue Fire guy's alright after losing part of his arm to him. DR. STONE - Wow, we're really speedrunning our way through technology now, aren't we. Also, even though I've never seen Eyeshield 21, I loved the cameo the token big guy from the team made in the man-powered generator pictograph. FIRE FORCE - My mom actually came into the room to grab her smartphone exactly when those guys asked Tamaki to strip for them, and every day I'm thankful my parents aren't disapproving of what TV I watch (as long as it's not Seth MacFarlane). Benimaru's cool and all, but he really needs to quit with the stubbornness. FOOD WARS! - Soma and Erina on the way back to Totsuki: most awkward car ride everrrrr. And since they're the focus of the new ED, I'll get this off my chest: female antagonists with fucked moral compasses and somehow worse personalities are bad enough, but their yes-women are even worse. Not only do they put up with the shit their bosses do, be it evil or merely dastardly, they actually approve of it like they have no personality of their own and are just piggybacking off their superior's. (You're your own person, don't like you actually condone that shit!) That's why, even though Ragyo Kiryuin is by all accounts a terrible human being, Hououmaru always gets more of my anger. Same deal with Erina and Hisako; the former may be the worst, but it's the latter who gets me mad. DEMON SLAYER - I'm a little disappointed that Brook Chalmers (the voice of the demon slayer guy training Tanjiro) isn't just another pseudonym for Michael McConnohie - a reference to his sometimes-used alias of Geoffrey Chalmers - but hey, more new blood is always good. Whatever kills the "dubbed anime has only five voice actors" stereotype once and for all. BLACK CLOVER - Mereoleona is best girl, and just one of the reasons that I just can't bring myself to hate Monica Rial, even considering my extremely complicated feelings about the thankfully concluded #KickVic saga. BORUTO - How ironic that we get some new theme songs before the show goes on indefinite hiatus. NARUTO SHIPPUDEN - Now I see why we've never seen Sakura's parents before now, they're annoying as crap! (Seriously, her dad is dadjokes incarnate.) On the upside, at least I finally got to see the episode with Hinata in the sexy dress. LUPIN THE 3RD - You can't not love these four (and also Zenigata!) engaging in sitcom hijinks.

Well, he makes a lot of bold/brash/belongs in the trash statements that you take the liberty of downvoting ASAP, so naturally I assumed he was Bucket.

One regular, one with screencap. Senran Kagura: Shinovi Master #9: BURN Case No. 221: Kabukicho Sherlock #2: Why Not Join the Staring-At-Eye-Moles Squad?

Yep, that sounds like Bucket, all right.

Is this a bucket?

I don't really care that much about casting for live-action anime, so of course I'd have nothing to say if there were either rumors or actual news of a black Nami being cast.

Hey, I don't remember any giggling about it on my end. But you make some good points.

They should've gotten Keanu. Keanu wouldn't have injured himself like an action-inexperienced scrub.

I had a semi-nightmare last night that they stealth-premiered Fairy Tail without my knowledge and people just sort of accepted it there. I'm not saying they should try it, but it's a possibility.

Does he not know? If he doesn't stream, that means the pirates win!

They probably valued consistency with the ADV dub over all else. Never mind, new cast for this one.

Senran Kagura: Shinovi Master 9

I read the first chapter of a Webtoon comic once because of a cow kemonomimi girl featured in the ad for it. While the whole "guy unknowingly devastates an island through his actions relating to those of said force" was cool, the "undefeated delinquent fighter" main character was too annoying for me to bother reading past a test-watch. I don't even remember the name of the story now. Also, isn't Webtoon infamous for some of those jump-scare horror comics?

If Toonami airs something I've already seen, I do as any good Toonami supporter would do and rewatch it. I did it with JoJo S1 and Pop Team Epic, after all.

That goes without saying. 😒

Let's see, there's All Might, Eraserhead, and Mirio... Who's #4?

And this week: He has evolved beyond the need for standard or even non-standard fap material. Wasn't the flashback always Hinawa's? 1. The seizure warning was actually for Dragon Ball Super after their attempts to pass the Harding Test by decreasing the frame rate made the animation really choppy. I assume something in this week's Clover was considered an epilepsy trigger for someone, but I couldn't tell you what it was. 2. At this point it's become absurdly hilarious how whenever Sister Lilly has any screentime, you assume Asta's just gonna drop whatever he's doing and run all the way over to where she is to propose to her yet again. 😂

Replies to Angel from last week: Friendly reminder that Matt Hill (Ed from EEnE) once asked the voice director for Gundam SEED to kick him in the testicles before doing a "Jesus Yamato cries" scene to make the sobbing sound more natural than Soichiro Hoshi's impression of a dying horse. 1. I felt Fist of the North Star vibes from that scene myself. 2. Megumi's really come into her own in the past few episodes, hasn't she. 3. I don't think anyone's supposed to like Erina. I'm even convinced her own VA doesn't like her, otherwise she'd have gone for something besides a valley girl accent. 4. I beg to differ, salad is fucking amazing if you really dress it up. I have to agree there, either give Gordon subtitles or don't, and if you're gonna go for both, don't switch off the subtitles halfway through the episode, it just makes you look more inconsistent than you already are.

ONE PUNCH MAN - It's disappointing that Madhouse didn't come back for round two, but at this point in the game, I'm just glad we have a second season of OPM at all. King being in the right place at the wrong time is the best possible explanation for Saitama's heroics having gone unnoticed until now. DR. STONE - I love these idiot geniuses so damn much. Suika is continued proof that Sarah Wiedenheft is one of the best new voice actresses in the stateside anime industry. But why the melon tho? FIRE FORCE - The answer was option 2, with the bonus of Tamaki having zero lines! Fire Force is at its best when it's about Obi, Hinawa and Benimaru, there's no disagreement about that. FOOD WARS! - Soma made it to passing grade at the literal last second, that's a real shounen bullshit move right there. Erina's sister-cousin is easily the better girl between the two relatives. Two-thirds passing is better than I would've expected for a purported training camp from the depths of Hell's kitchen. DEMON SLAYER - The animation is different but in a good way. The named characters we've met so far are all likeable despite their varied strength and initial intentions. Yuki Kajiura does the whole post-feudal Japanese folk music genre justice. So far, this show lives up to the stellar reputation it's set for itself these past six months. BLACK CLOVER - I like it whenever a show introduces a new character we've never met, only for it to turn out that the main character met them already. One of my anime concepts actually utilizes this in the second cour, so it was a pleasure to see Black Clover beat me to it in action first. BORUTO - OTN masks save lives, children. That's why Zabuza didn't kick the bucket until he took his off. NARUTO SHIPPUDEN - I have a feeling Tenten grabbing that special fan after Kinkaku's defeat isn't gonna amount to anything. After all, the world just isn't right unless Tenten is being useless. LUPIN THE 3RD - I haven't seen a solo Lupin episode since episode 10 of Fujiko's anime. Still, that was a fun murder-mystery with a good twist here and a red herring or two there. I'd watch the spinoff where he's solving mysteries with the cute meido (superior fetish to nuns, BTW).

You say that like I haven't seen my fair share of what you would consider "shitty" shows. But yeah, I've never had any interest in Fairy Tail. Too many characters with too many annoying designs, and surprisingly, the blatant Shanks expy is one of the ones I can actually tolerate looking at for long periods of time.
