Page 2 replies Please stop capitalizing everything. It's more annoying than the actual show. He also speaks Japanese, hence his weird yet accurate pronunciation of the names in Naruto. Well that was a Bang Zoom dub, plus JoJo's campy enough to get away with that sort of thing... Soma does the raping around here, if his weird obsession with dipping dried squid in various fluids and force-feeding them to cute girls has anything to say about it. Is that even a thing? If it is, I doubt it's commonplace in Japan, let alone high-tone enough for a school as elite as Totsuki.

Whew boy, here I go again with this. Page 1 replies Because they don't give a fuck about what you or anyone else thinks. Nope. Not Sentai-affiliated. Try again. No, Sentai just likes doing that shit with their dubs. Different strokes for different folks. Or maybe the majority of MAL's user base is pants-on-head mentally challenged. Because it's a Sentai dub, why wouldn't she be in it? God, it's like people with name recognition doing things you personally don't like but others do is some sort of cardinal sin against humanity...

I unironically love that chuunibyou syndrome is apparently a thing in the backwoods of the Titanverse. Bakugo's too egotistical to have stage fight, so of course he'd have the advantage over Soma. I assume that's what you meant to say. DRAGON BALL SUPER - Is it bad that I was expecting the 3rd to get eliminated in one episode like the 4th was last week? Considering we only have 11 episodes left of this, probably not. ATTACK ON TITAN - When I first heard about it, I thought the rule that Titan Shifters only have 13 years left to live after gaining their powers was kinda B.S. I've come to accept that now. I saw an image a while back that set the scene of Historia reading Ymir's letter (I bet FUNi loved dubbing something that LGBT-friendly) to the Netflix subs of Kaworu telling Shinji he likes him, but I can't seem to find it, so... someone help me out there, please? LUPIN THE 3RD - So this was a Pink Jacket episode, huh. Definitely wacky, I'll give you that much. It definitely works with this show's style more than the off-model style the actual Pink Jacket series used. FOOD WARS! - The trope of the protagonist's classmates staring daggers at him en masse is easily my least favorite in all of anime. At least here, they stared at Soma more in the way one stares at Bakugo than at your standard lawlharem protagonist. (Though Soma's admittedly more cut out to be the latter.) I respect Sentai's lack of fear in giving their characters accents, be they appropriate like Chappelle's French twang or not so like Erina's Valley speak. This week in "comments from my dad", he misheard "Commence a cuire!" as "Commence the queer!", and the fact that Soma apparently misheard it the same way made it even better. I loved those two guys who tried to sabotage their dish getting hoist by their own petard. That little card at the end showing up was strange; Toonami must like seeing what kinds of fluids Soma likes mixing with dried squid, rape metaphors included or no. BLACK CLOVER - Sol was much better when she was younger and had longer hair. I can only wonder what happened to change her stance on the male gender so drastically. Meanwhile, Magna's disappearing fireball technique is One Outs levels of bullshit baseball strategy and I love it. I'm just gonna guess Mimosa planted her seed on Sol's golem while she was having her heart-to-heart with Kirsch down in the fun pit. BORUTO: NARUTO NEXT GENERATIONS - Naruto's right about no mission being a piece of cake. Even pulling weeds can be difficult, because you might take someone's home-grown herbs out with them by mistake. NARUTO SHIPPUDEN - Sasuke and Naruto did the tsundere marriage before Himawari and Sakurako made it cool. MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM: THE ORIGIN - Ramba Ral is such a badass, no wonder he's a meme character in Build Fighters. Shame about his dad, though. I liked the young Amuro cameo in the airport, especially with his Haro asking "why are you doing this?" Could someone who's actually seen Gundam tell me the relevance of that Japanese guy's daughter? There's no reason she'd be there outside of post-relevance cameo purposes. MY HERO ACADEMIA - I didn't realize that you had to take a test to get in on recommendation. That's something new. And how cruel of the show to leave us on the cliffhanger of who got in and who didn't. Also, after seeing the promo for it, I'm thinking about actually watching gen:LOCK. It's only eight episodes (so far), can't be too painful.

Or... Random Bara Grandpa: BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. [crumples random student's rejection letter]

Tonight on Toonami, the 3rd Universe bum-rushes the 7th in a last-ditch attempt at survival in the final quarter of the Tournament of Power, yes it's a Titan rerun but at least it isn't more SAO (yet), Grisha learns a shocking truth about the Titan Shifters while his journals are discussed in the present day, hold on to your everything 'cause it's a fuckmothering Pink Jacket episode, Soma manages to make it into Totsuki High despite getting rejected by the biggest tsundere of all time, Sol tries bonding with Kirsch while Magna takes the opportunity to finally engage Asta in a real fight, the new Team 7 helps protect a small town from an infestation of bandits as part of their first mission, this week we reminisce about Sasuke getting his ass handed to him by both Gaara and his older brother, Casval and Artesia begin their new lives on Earth as the conflict within Munzo gets worse, and the remaining testees try to practice rescue people and fight off a "villain" simultaneously. 11:00 - Dragonball Super #120 - A Perfect Survival Strategy!

Your works might not have made it onto American television outside of specialty channels like Anime Network and FUNimation Channel, but in these times of tragedy, we here at ASMB Lite support you nevertheless.

Like Soylent Cola, it varies from person to person.

I've been saying they should air Haruhi for years. But given its age, I think something more recent and somewhat actiony like Beyond the Boundary would be a better fit.

Not watching the show, just fixing the punctuation.

Yes. In America. Asta's English VA is Dallas Reid; Shinra's is Derick Snow. But Gakuto Kajiwara voices the both of them in the Japanese dubs of their respective shows. In short, don't write checks with your mouth that your ass can't cash. Just for that, I'm gonna start pushing for more of those WTF pickups. [keep toonami unpredictable]

...That "news" was confirmed a mistranslation hours ago. Takemoto's fate's still up in the air at this point.

I'm actually disappointed by this. Not only is this poor timing regarding the events in Kyoto, but it's one of those popular, predictable pickups that I desperately want Toonami to move away from. If only Demarco's knowledge wasn't as entry-level as he's making it look. On the upside, it should be fun, watching the industry's acknowledgement of Asta's nun fetish. (For those who don't get it: the MC is voiced by Asta's seiyuu, and one of the members of his team is a nun. It ain't rocket science.)

Easily the biggest mass tragedy to happen to the anime industry since the Tohoku earthquake/tsunami wiped out a good portion of Studio Bridge. Rest in peace to the deceased, and may the police catch the guy who did it eventually.

Likewise, I was always under the impression that it was pronounced "rile" (as in "rile up") as opposed to "ree-all".

He insisted on shaking hands when he should have bowed instead.

Quit trying to infect us with your crushing pessimism, Elfie. Look on the bright side: AT LEAST WE'RE GETTING A REPLACEMENT FOR SAO INSTEAD OF JACK SHIT.

The Uzumaki Family Power Hour is for jacking it to hentai. /co/ calls it the Naruto Fap Break for a reason, Daos.

How can you look at Mitsuki and not see this guy? It's honestly baffling.

We got Bible Black namedropped on Gemusetto Machu Picchu. It's close enough.

You now remember the phase in my life where I mimicked ANN's edit list and made hypothetical edit lists for anime I imagined airing on [as] and SyFy. The Scarface-style language edits for Black Lagoon were my favorite part.

Simple: he knows he's fucked and sees no point in trying to salvage his already sunken reputation by any means. I'm already prepared for Xander Mobus to take over most of his roles that could require reprisal in the future.

Sweet, an excuse to watch it right away (or three weeks from now, give or take).

Of course you'd be put off by her hairstyle. It took a while for me to come around to it, admittedly.

That's what commercial breaks are for.

I remember back when HxH started and she didn't really like Gon or Killua to start with. I still firmly believe that their actions during the Trick Tower stage of the Hunter Exam were what turned her opinion around on them. As much as I'd like Sol to get over her #KillAllMen hangups, if Magna got laid, then he'd no longer be Virgin Street Punk Dandy. He'd be... Regular Street Punk Dandy, which isn't nearly as fun to say. And now you know the answer to the question, "Who's the Beast Titan supposed to be?" He's Eren's half-brother. Kirito's lived through the other seasons of his show, they can't hurt him. (Well, Sugo molesting Asuna might hurt him by way of PTSD, but the rest, not so much.) Really, there are several alternate methods of suffering Administrator could put him through. Like making him watch Blue Gender and Super Milk-chan at the same time. Or Pilot Candidate and Trinity Blood at the same time. Or Tenchi Muyo! GXP and King Star King at the same time. Or Akame ga KILL! and Food Wars at the same time. Or Tokyo Ghoul and Black Clover at the same time. Or she could just force him to read Kinky Kunoichi until he realizes that even I can write a better story than his creator ever could and has a mental break from it. It's anime, her boobs can work in whatever way they damn well please. Charmy has been pretty fun this arc, I for one am loving her casual interactions with the Wizard King. By the end of this week, I am going to make an image showing which two anime characters had to fuck to create Troll Prince JYB 2.0, and yes, Hisoka will be one of them. DRAGON BALL SUPER - One of the missing fighters was invisible, while the other was insect-sized. I might've known. And like that, the 4th Universe is eliminated, and boy did they get eliminated quick. Shame about Piccolo getting ringed out, though, guess 17's gonna be the one I'm rooting for on main now. ATTACK ON TITAN - The boy gets a beating, while his sister gets mauled to death by German attack dogs. Even if it was Grisha's fault, that's still fucked. Here I was, fully convinced that the asshole behind it was gonna get off scot-free, but then came the ending where his partner pushed him off the ledge to be eaten by a Titan - the Moe Titan who had the crush on Jean in the Junior High spin-off, no less! - and revealed he was the mole and a Titan Shifter! (Bonus: voiced by Ray Chase!) Catharsis is a wonderful thing, and Attack on Titan more than delivered with it. 🤩 SWORD ART ONLINE: ALICIZATION - Turns out Chudelkin delivered the final blow against Administrator, who'd have seen that coming? At least the animation of their twin demise was nice and experimental. I'd have felt bad about Eugeo dying halfway through - yes, we're only halfway - but goddamn, did they have to make his interactions with Kirito so homoerotic? Meanwhile, legitimately interesting things are happening on the secret sea base, what with the army attacking and making Kirito double brain dead. I appreciate him chewing out Kikuoka as the first thing he did in his phone call to the outside. After the shit Kirito and his butt-buddy witnessed in Underworld - two minutes of which had to be censored for American broadcast, mind you - he deserves all of the contempt. LUPIN THE 3RD: PART 5 - People say Lupin fails in the ratings partly because of the age of its character designs, and partly because you know Lupin and his crew will ultimately win out every time, but if you ask me, the secret joy of the latter is not if they win, but how they win. But seriously, Lupin played us all. And really, would we want it any other way? FOOD WARS! SHOKUGEKI NO SOMA - Even Discount Monoma is afraid of the tsuntsun-est tsundere in Toonami Swim History, taking even Tokine, Noelle, and the redheaded member of Seina's beta harem into account. I like how that mysterious old man responded with her failing Soma despite his food being really good with a "fuck that noise!" And I'll give the show credit, I'm gonna put scrambled egg in the stir fry I'm making tonight. Some fresh protein to counterbalance the pre-cooked frozen chicken I'm also including. BLACK CLOVER - I'm proud of Asta for finally getting to the point where he finally has his own named attack; the only thing missing was the exclamation of "Anti-Magic" before it. I also liked him convincing Troll Prince JYB 2.0 to work with him while holding back as much screaming as he could. There's hope for them after all! BORUTO: NARUTO NEXT GENERATIONS - I had a feeling Lupin was playing us all, but I didn't even consider Orochimaru doing the same. Good on him. NARUTO SHIPPUDEN - Hey, remember over a decade ago when I used to actually like Sasuke? Those were better times. MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM: THE ORIGIN - In the end, everything went off without any serious hitches. Gundam women don't get mad, they get even; Kycilia blowing up her brother for bitchslapping her and Hamon letting those two tank drivers get killed as extended payback for trying to give her the sex is proof of that. MY HERO ACADEMIA - Best rating right off the bat? Midnight playing a prominent role? Deku keeping his cool without shedding a single tear? An excuse to finally watch the first tie-in movie? All that and more are the reasons why I think this is the most underrated episode of MHA. Tonight was a really good collection of episodes. SAO was a little much, but then again, when isn't it too much?
