Alright, so according to Urban Dictionary, "stan" means "a crazed or obsessed fan". Back in my day, we used to call stans "fanatics". It's honestly a way better term that needs to make a comeback.

I don't know what a "stan" is, but I'm already sick of that term.

American creators, Japanese studios, it still ain't my problem.

See? Shit like this is why I stick to anime.

1 million dollars.

Elfie's kinda dumb, what else is new?

I didn't mind the melodrama, but the super-deformed comedy moments were more often than not inappropriate and kind of mean-spirited towards the main character. Doesn't mean it's not worth watching, though.

Well now you know.... Deku: ...and via radio. Todoroki: ...and knowing is half the battle. Bakugo: ...JACK SHIT!

It feels good to have HBO in my cable package for once.

Vic actually did some voicework for Panty & Stocking. Fittingly enough, it's the nose-picking episode. [shudder]

[reads ben's post, then your post] Oh yeah, that makes way more sense. My bad. 😋

I keep telling y'all to start visiting Anime News Network, so what if their editorial staff are full of themselves, it's a decent resource!

Outside of Demarco's bitter distaste for female fanservice, yeah.

Uh... because it's smarter to air the premiere episode at 11PM than at 3:30/4AM? Which is "the sensible thing" like you said, right?

The only anime I'm watching this season right from the get-go (because SAO will obviously come to Toonami soon) is Kabukicho Sherlock, so all I can say is it once again feels good to be in the minority.

Kinda makes you wonder how we lucked out into getting the Durarara!! OVAs, huh.

He didn't know that, we can be sure.

FUN FACT: Cabbages are not legumes, meaning the show fucked up on that implication.

Tokyo Ghoul: Pinto

So instead we got the generic Walmart version of the generic Walmart version of One Piece. But hey, at least we got Yami on the block out of it.

The currently lowest rated anime on MAL is #11183. #900something is far from "pretty bad", compared to that.

Nibba do you even realize how much anime there is out there? Top 1000/500 ain't as bad as you're making it out to be.

Knowing you, I think you melting like the other guy at the end of Indiana Jones would be more appropriate given the situation. (Unless that's the same guy, I dunno, I never watched Indiana Jones.) More than Soma, at least. His name's "Virgin Street Punk Dandy". DRAGON BALL SUPER - At least there's only three episodes left. GEN:LOCK - Considering how we don't know what happened with ANVIL after the Union released their nanotech clouds, I assume they'll pop up again either in the finale or the second season (if RT ever makes it) to explain what went on. Then again, I wouldn't be surprised if they pulled an "and then they also died, end of discussion" like they did with Chase's family. DR. STONE - I enjoyed Mecha-Senku popping up to tell us not to actually make gunpowder at home. That said, things are looking pretty bleak, even considering the presence of more people than just our main four. FIRE FORCE - Yep, this show's got me again. Say it's legitimately bad all you want, your "objective opinions" won't stop me from not loving this show (outside of Hibana's horrendous first impression, that is). As for episode-particular enjoyment, I like that starry-eyed evil fire soldier guy sounds like Bryce Papenbrook but with actual range. FOOD WARS - Uhhhhhhhh cabbages aren't legumes, show. I'mma hafta dock you points for that. BLACK CLOVER - You know, I wouldn't be surprised if Angel ever got tired of Mereoleona's anger just like she did of Vanessa's being a drunken floozy. BORUTO - Technically, Naruto did take the Chunin Exam, he just never passed. NARUTO SHIPPUDEN - Gaara's taking this whole "my dad just came back to life" thing pretty well, even though he's primarily angry about it above all else. MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM: THE ORIGIN - I'm gonna make a meme this week to celebrate the debut of OTN Mask Kycilia, because of course I'd do that. LUPIN THE 3RD PART 5 - CIA guy's a dick, should've expected that from the Japanese. Zenigata actually being Lupin caught me off guard for once, at least until ten seconds before the reveal. I'm not sure whether the traditional headdress makes me like Dolma more, or if it makes me trust her less. It probably has nothing to do with her arrowing Lupin without realizing it.
