In my opinion, that is. It's a shame others can't appreciate Vic's final big new role being a creepy guy who finds himself in harrowing situations he manages to weasel his way out of, except for the one or two times he didn't. Just like in real life! But hey, to each their own. It's not like your opinion of the man invalidates mine or whatever.

If his inevitable exit from the industry is indeed assured, innocent or guilty, one truth prevails: Rohan Kishibe is the perfect swan song for him.

Neon Genesis Evangelion 25-26 About time I knocked this one off.

Anime of the year, I tells ya.

Black Clover is a very acquired taste, that much I know for certain.

I always thought the "Newtype blood curse" thing with Loni was way stupider than Riddhe getting a redemption arc, regardless of whether or not I think he deserved one (which he didn't).

What is this site, the anime equivalent of The Onion? So really, the circumstances of Noelle's birth are more comparable to Holland's in Eureka seveN. Renton's too, since a still from episode 50 more or less says that his mom died the day he was born.

Red Swan was exceptional. You just did not get it. Where's David Xanatos when you need him? Eh, I still think Sol's gayness is way more tolerable than her gag of not even bothering to address her captain formally. Even Luck's fightsexuality is fresh and exciting compared to that. MY HERO ACADEMIA - Just as we started Odd Future's run with the full version, we end with the full version. Methinks Japan takes their "rescuing someone is literally worse than not rescuing someone" thing a little too seriously. Dare you enter Mineta's magical realm? At least the license plates on Kaminari's wall look cool. And in the end, Tsuyu admitted that even she was wrong. DRAGON BALL SUPER - I've had my eye on Monna since the 4th Universe competitors got introduced, and I'm glad she finally got a little bit of focus before her elimination. Her voice actress sounds like she had a fun time playing her. Cabba awakened his inner Bakugo, too bad it was all for nothing. Vegeta was on point though, especially between his intended wish on the Super Dragon Balls and him still pronouncing mustache like he did in GT. ATTACK ON TITAN - Armin's such a nervous wreck as a commander, it's almost kind of adorable. That's all I've got, sadly. THE PROMISED NEVERLAND - God suspense shows are so good, it's a shame they're more likely to put the Toonami-watching audience to sleep than not. SWORD ART ONLINE: ALICIZATION - Admittedly, I'm relieved the MASV was just a flashback to episode 10 (complete with explicit use of the word "rape", finally), but it still seems kind of extreme a rating for an episode that was just Kirito reading Alice the riot act, the two of them scaling a skyscraper and fighting gargoyles, a brief interlude with Asuna and Kayaba's former sex partner, and Eugeo walking in on Hol Horse bathing. JOJO'S BIZARRE ADVENTURE: DIAMOND IS UNBREAKABLE - That Hayato's a pretty cool kid, comes up with contingency plans and doesn't afraid of anything. I don't know what's more ridiculous, Jotaro assuming Josuke's scream was the rain being extra loud or Josuke not bothering to check Okuyasu's pulse after the second call for him to wake up fell through, but it's JoJo, I really should relax. BLACK CLOVER - I'm calling her Sisgoleon from now on. Noelle's sister was cute before she became an ugly turbo-bitch. BORUTO: NARUTO NEXT GENERATIONS - I feel like they could've come up with a better translation for those special candies than "Water Cinnamon Sweets". Oh well, at least the brief return of Postmaster Ray Chase was fun. I wonder if he'd get along with my OC Vigilante Detective Ray Chase. NARUTO SHIPPUDEN - I love how Gai's forgetfulness of Kisame had two payoffs: one early in Shippuden, where he actually didn't know the guy he was fighting (who he thought was Kisame), and here, where the shark-guy's resolve managed to finally earn him a place in his mental hall of fame. HUNTER x HUNTER - For an episode that was entirely political intrigue, that was quite fun. Take notes, Gundam. I'm alright with Cheadle's irrational hatred for Pariston being his dishonesty about everything. Still voting for Leorio, even after his admission to masturbating. (I mean, who doesn't in this day and age?)

Explicit reference to media or not, it's still not funny.

She can't go past the 80th floor, so I don't think we'll be seeing her again. Best known as Hol Horse, the most American STAND user there is.

The Japanese ver. was better IMO.

Did you word it like this on purpose or are you seriously that dyslexic?

Tonight on Toonami, the block shifts up half an hour to an earlier start time with a once-more block-opener My Hero Academia episode that speaks for itself, Vegeta and Cabba team up against a BBW tournament competitor that isn't Ribrianne, Titan makes its not exactly glorious return as the Scouts arrive in the dilapidated ruins of Shiganshina, Emma and friends' alliance with Krone only serves to make them more suspicious of her, either we're getting flashbacks to this season's rape attempt or Demarco's taking the "RAWR FANSERVICE BAD" thing wayyyyyyyy too far, Kira's aplomb at foiling Hayato's attempt to stop him prompts someone else to take up the reins of the foiler, Asta and Yuno are roped into joining the literal best woman in this show on a dangerous training retreat, Boruto jumps out of the frying pan that was the former Blood Mist Village and into the fire that's his little sister's emotional state, Aoba pries Kisame's mind for intel and instead dooms everyone to a flashback episode (the non-recap kind), and recent developments in the election's final stages make Leorio question if punching out Ging was the right call. 10:30 - My Hero Academia #51 - Moving Into Dorms - TV-14DV 11:00 - Dragonball Super #112 - A Saiyan Oath!

I just got back from seeing EoE, that part was quite sexual-esque.

The End of Evangelion Attack on Titan: Junior High 11-12

The End of Evangelion: 10/10. Most kino apocalypse ever. I wouldn't mind going out that way. Brava, GAINAX.

Dang, and here I was thinking the Origin TV edit was just wishful thinking on Al's part.

Great chill-out song.

She's adorable, that's reason enough to get popular in this day and age.

First off, let me say that Great Days: Bites the Dust Ver. is the best anime opening edit of all time. Exactly. That's just the alcohol talking, it's fine.

Say no more.

DRAGON BALL SUPER - "Hit of the 11th Universe has been eliminated." To some, yet another anime dub gaff. To others, proof that FUNimation really does want to break free of the DBZ anchor. MY HERO ACADEMIA - Oh wow, Bakugo's face really is one a mother can beat to a bloody pulp. I'd post a meme for that one childhood flashback, but there's just so many, that I'll post the page for them instead. THE PROMISED NEVERLAND - Spoilered for the crowd that hates racism, even when it's not the speaker's own views, which I assure you they aren't. SWORD ART ONLINE: ALICIZATION - Dammit Kirito, I know you respect women and all, but you really need to learn to identify which ones need said respect. "I don't know anything of the world outside of this shaft" sounds like a line from a really fucked-up porno. JOJO'S BIZARRE ADVENTURE: DIAMOND IS UNBREAKABLE - Great Days is a 10/10 OP, sure, but the Bites the Dust edit is Elder God tier. Thank god Hayato's smart enough to know how to handle this bizarre a situation, otherwise we'd be fucked. BLACK CLOVER - I may gripe about the series as much as the rest of you - and in comparison to Angel, Gunners, and Elfie, much less - but even so, I just can't help but feel a bit proud for Asta and Yuno having come this far in six months their time, eighteen months ours. Bravo, boys. As for Fuego's sister, I'm not too surprised but still a bit disappointed she didn't get a lot of screentime this episode. (That's what next week's for, I guess.) Also, I don't think I've heard Monica do the voice she's doing for her before. UZUMAKI FAMILY POWER HOUR - a.k.a. The Samehada Special. I'm not sure what Shizuma's relation to Kisame is, but the latter would probably think the former's a total scrub. HUNTER x HUNTER - Welp, Bisky's out of the running, so I guess I'm gonna vote for Leorio now. Even Killua thinks the lengths to which Illumi's taking this intra-mission are kinda ridiculous.

Okay, I'm back after spending a few hours doing some low-stress things, so allow me to take the time to apologize for acting like a jerk earlier about the "no need for Toonami" spiel. It's true that Toonami's no longer as necessary as it was in the past - hell, even I've taken to watching anime online like everybody else - but I don't feel comfortable yet believing that it's not necessary, partly because I still watch it week by week when I could just binge what they're airing (lucky for them I'm not the binging type), and partly because there's a sense of comfort knowing that a place where one can watch anime on basic cable still exists. Believe me, when Toonami inevitably gets cancelled again, I won't be the only one shedding tears and referencing the Bebop ending like TOM did the first time they closed up shop. So yeah. It sucks to hear that Toonami's not the pillar it once was, especially from someone I expected to be more chill about this sort of thing, but if that's how it is, then I guess I'd better start getting used to it before it gets to the point that I piss off someone so badly they downvote every post I make, even if it's a good one. [holds out hand to start over]

If we're talking crowdfunded anime, why not mention Kick-Heart, the crowdfunded anime that started it all? Uh, unless Under the Dog did it first, that is.

Geez, sorry I even said anything.
