I prefer to use old-school ASCII emojis to represent the shedding of tears. There's two semicolons and an underscore for regular tears (;_;), and two capital Ts and an underscore for manly tears (T_T). You can also add a 7 to either to make it a tearful salute.

No! We have to go even deeper!

You were expecting Reigen Arataka, but it was I, Genos! [too soon?]

Considering David Pro hired a bunch of ex-SHAFT staff for Fire Force, I won't mind whether the color of the fire is natural or non.

I noticed Wikipedia updated it earlier with his name, but ANN hasn't reported it yet. I'm guessing they're still writing up the article detailing his history in the industry. If they bothered to do it with the color designer, you know they're gonna do it with the director.

Question mark, Elfie. The exclamation point should be a question mark.

I dunno, Todd Haberkorn managed to get over his accusation fairly easily. Someone blamed him, he explained himself, and he's still doing voiceovers (for continuing franchises, at least). But I have a feeling you're gonna turn that around on me too, so what do I know?

So it's more like a really rough patch, then.

So does this mean he's getting blacklisted too, because goddammit.

Purple.

That summary of how she broke into the anime industry in the ANN article really hit me in the feels. I expect the rest for the eulogies that follow to do the same. T_T

It's a meme, Al, get over it. Also, stop using the term "Arabic numerals". We know what numbers are.

I'm just gonna assume his impression was spot-on.

And he only got that because it had nostalgic name recognition, and he only admitted to seeing the first few episodes before any of the really fanservicey/lawlharemy stuff came into play.

It's a Shonen Jump property, and there aren't any nipples so it's easy on S&P for editing. I can't say I don't see why he chose Food Wars of all things as our first ecchi series. But yeah, he could have done better. Personally, I'd have gone with Freezing. Yeah, it's from 2011 and there's nipples across the board, but it's got actual action, a plot that doesn't devolve into shounen bullshit, fanservice balanced between incidental (clothing damage) and on purpose (the sexual bullying scene in episode 3), and a dub that didn't even need to fifteen itself to sell like DxD's did. As the resident TV content ratings autist, trust me when I say there are episodes where barely any profanity is present. Plus I know this one guy who got traumatized so badly from the four and a half episodes he did watch that he outright told people that if they liked it they were a bad person, and him getting triggered by it reaching a wider audience would be entertaining af. Blood-C would be good to watch with the rest of you, especially now that I'm not expected to actually care about what happens to most of the characters.

Whoever's in charge, always blame Demarco.

Reruns and Pink Jacket. Not even once together.

If she is, she only does freelancing in L.A. To my knowledge, she's never been in a dub that was done in Texas like Food Wars' was.

Page 3 replies Do you even know what anime you're watching? Their first names are Japanese implying they're biracial, plus they're recurring characters unlike Frenchie, so I don't see why they'd bother with them. Just another reason JoJo's better with the accents, 'cause at least they bothered to give Italian accents to Caesar and Suzie Q. DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT ANIME YOU'RE WATCHING? It's Tigger's father's ashes! [oh bother]

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]
