Personal opinions aside, I agree, Shippuden filler is not the best way to start out your block's second wind, especially with ratings this dismal.

Chuukan Kanriroku Tonegawa 16 Yozakura Quartet: Hana no Uta 6

>Let's Go Eat Some Italian Food >TV-MAV Don't you just hate it when your marinara's made out of people?

When will network executives learn that rerunning stuff anywhere besides the ass end of the block is a terrible idea? Did they forget that's what got Toonami cut in half three years ago?

And now for something some of you might find the least bit familiar. jam #04: 心配と不退転 Concern and Conviction Download link below. Say no to lawlharems, kids. KK 04.pdf

Yozakura Quartet: Hana no Uta 5

And this is why nobody should ever complain about anime being unrealistic.

To Ben, it is.

That is a fair point that I agree with. Hell, Chuukan Kanriroku Tonegawa is ranked #5772 with #2938 popularity, and it's my favorite show of both last season and this one. Legitimately good despite the high barrier to entry.

Did I also mention that it happened on his birthday?

MY HERO ACADEMIA - Again... what the fuck Todoroki's mom. Of course Deku looks completely nervous in his picture. You aren't even gonna bother saying their first names, Mic? AND WE'RE OFF TO THE RACES! Damn Deku you crazy. "I'll kill you." Yeah... no you won't. Huh, I never considered Bakugo to be one who thought things through. You think there's something symbolic about how he uses his middle finger first? Welp, so much for the rest of your chances. REPLY TO ANGEL 1: "Not sure if garbage dad is pissed off or if that's just his face." Knowing what little of Endeavor that I do, it's probably both. Even Bakugo is astounded by his resolve. Using the same finger twice? Damn, the bones in that digit have to be shattered at this point, if not a fine powder. Guys, I think something inside Deku just broke. Holy shit I literally just noticed the letters "UA" on their uniforms. I don't think I'll ever get used to Bakugo being analytical and shit. KIDNEY SHOT. Eraserhead knows what's up. Err, mostly. He lives to meet others' expectations while exceeding his own; that's what separates the champions from the chumps. SURPRISE HEADBUTT! That's cuttin' it deep, Deku. And, to no one's surprise, Endeavor is an abusive piece of shit. Pause... STOMACH PUNCH. I mean, I can understand the red-haired one looking more like him, but the others? I dunno... "Where did Mama go?" She went to the asylum, boy. And thus began the greatest father-son hateship of our time. All Might really is everyone's surrogate dad. FUCK YEAH YOU SAY RUN. Endeavor may not be the most likable man (or likable at all), but good lord do I love his face here. Everyone's a little crazy inside. What a waste of a perfectly good catsuit. YES YES YES YES. YUTAKA NAKAMURA SAKUGA SPOTTED. Now that's what I call an explosive finish. And she lost her mask too, not that it mars my opinion of her any. Welp... that's a ring-out. Really took their time showing the episode title, huh. Seriously, though, I had a huge stupid grin on my face for the past couple minutes there. This show really knows how to hype you up. And here's the episode in a nutshell. Is there a reason the narrator pronounces "Boruto" as "Baruto"? NARUTO SHIPPUDEN - A designated building for bathroom facilities. As to be expected from a village that missing most of its indoor plumbing. Did he mispronounce "prophesized" on purpose? And when he does meet Sasuke again, he's gonna break all the bones in his body to show him how he feels. NOBODY EXPECTS GUY-SENSEI. Umi da! You may be filled in later, but at least you'll be filled in sometime. A long an arduous journey, sounds like prime real estate for a batch of filler episodes. The bad news is there is no crew. I'm sure Guy can kick the ass of whatever it is they have to face. Assuming he isn't still seasick by the time they face it. "I don't sea anything." NINJA SWORDFISH. Not even Guy-sensei expects the Thousand Years of Death! Check it out, a filler character with two-toned hair. "I can't make signs like this!" No, but that's what Yamato's for. THE BIRDS NO JUTSU. You ever wonder what an anime where everyone is drawn in the same artstyle as laid-back Saitama is like? Then Mob Psycho 100 might be the anime for you. If there's one thing I've learned about fishermen from anime, it's that they're stubborn as all get out. Internal combustion engines? In my ninja anime? It's more likely than you think. And of course, there's a tragic backstory to go with it. Ninjas got him into this mess, and ninjas will get him out. Ah, ninjutsu: man's best substitute for modern technology. STROKE ME STROKE ME. It ain't filler if Naruto's not on the short end of the stick at least once, be it him or a lookalike. Well, he's right about him being a "showboat", at least. Whatever you do, don't go past the fifth gate. I dunno, that's a lotta line. Never get in the way of a fisherman's stubbornness. There's your Free Willy moment, hope y'all are happy. How long has that giant shuriken been in its forehead like that? For what it's worth, that was a nice sunset. And so the journey begins, for real this time. BORUTO: NARUTO NEXT GENERATIONS - I'm not surprised that Konohamaru can summon frogs. Someone sure got popular with the ladies during the timeskip. It's nice to see that Bort takes after his father in terms of idiocy. And then there's Shino's family, who have loads of bugs living inside their clothes. I don't remember Temari ever having a summoning animal. Boruto confirmed for the type of guy who'd think of Orochimaru as cool first, creepy second. It's nice to see Choji's daughter takes the fatness acknowledgement better than he ever could. Yeah... rumors. WHAT A DRAG COUNT: 1. "Don't do anything childish." You guys are children! Who'd have thought Konohamaru would mature to the point where he finds the shit he did as a kid completely cringey? These two are more alike than they'd ever admit to being. Who else but Choji's daughter? Huh, so that's what "you snooze, you lose" means. GENDER FIGHT! I'd never have pictured Shino being so passionate. The people in this Pixel 3 commerical are so damn stupid, I'm surprised they even know how to use a phone. Iwabe is one of my favorites in this show, and that's mostly because of his voice actor. No one ever listens to Shino. "She's got the Uchiha blood, with none of their mental problems." His jutsu is Hollywood hacking. BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAP. "What does this button do?" You'd think the melting would scare them even more, but I guess now. "Leave it to the girls to think of cutting us off." Says the guy whose mother denied him dinner last episode. Gotta love the between-the-legs slide. Denki's gonna get /ss/ed. The deaths are symbolic, Shikadai. I had a feeling that summoning lesson would come in handy. ...Or maybe not. This girl's gonna be a future pyromaniac. Good news, it worked. Bad news, it worked too well. Thanks, Konohamaru. And, like in every boys vs. girls episode that came before, and all the ones that'll come after, the girls win. So what was the prize again? Yakisoba buns, apparently. Yeah... I don't think they're ready to clean that up. Why hello there, stranger. DRAGONBALL SUPER - I still wanna eat that red rice Beerus is chowing down on. Sometimes I forget that Krillin's a cop. Law enforcement is all about adeptness in multiple fields. If I hadn't said it before, I'll say it now: Krillin really won out in the love interest lottery for this franchise. Ohhhh so they hadn't told them yet. You shouldn't whisper so loud, Goku. Well that move was surprisingly smart. WAVES AND ROCKS~. Gohan knows the Krillin Owned Counter all too well. Goku's not very good with numbers, that's the reason for the extra zero. Out of the mouths of babes. Look out for his penultimate technique! I wonder what disturbing image he saw in the flash... KRILLIN WINS. Okay, so it's 100 Friezas in the shower, then. No one ever expects anything from Krillin anymore, not after the KOC got destroyed a few months ago. Man, Goku really does look evil this season. Only Mr. Satan would put his face on a building. Let's be real here, most people are already outmatched against Goku. Oh hey, a Dragonball flashback. Krillin's voice sounded strange back then. A Solar Flare-Destructo Disk combo? Nice, I love me some combo moves. Sometimes, doing better than you think is the best you can do. Fight strong and fight smart, that's the motto for this tournament. TWIN KAMEHAME-HA. Turns out he was trembling in excitement. Goku doesn't do teamwork well. Aaaaaaand now he's lost interest. Out of the mouths of babes, again. Holy shit, Goku really did never meet 17, did he? He's ranging the shit out of a park somewhere. "I'm surprised to find out that 17 loves animals so much." He got that from 16 and his love of the birds. Oh hey new ending theme. Now why would you order the hot wings and not any water? I swear, the people behind these commercials have less common sense than your average harem protagonist. ATTACK ON TITAN - "How can we evacuate the people in such a short time?" "We don't." This Titan-vision is cool and all, but what's that bright glow he's seeing on the horizon? Oh, it's just houselights. That guy sounds like Mr. Satan. So that's how Abnormals work. I think you have to physically touch the Titan in order for it to work, dumbass. The way that old man's arms are placed, it looks like he's forcibly copping a feel off of that one military chick. That is one awfully grotesque Titan. FUCK YOUR TREES. You should know by now that Erwin is a gambling man. I enjoy Hange's enthusiasm. She's suggesting that if she helps kick the big-ass Titan's big ass right here and now, the people will know she isn't all talk. Well, at least they're putting holes in it. Okay Eren I know you're not the best main character but you're being just a little too hard on yourself. TRUMP CARD COUNT: 1. I'm not sure which one of the three the blonde girl's supposed to represent. Sure feels weird being on the other side of a situation you yourself were in once. He's beating the crap out of himself. He's the worst and he knows damn well of it. Called it too soon, Garrison Satan. That feel when you have no face. Ugh, falling organs. That self-beating clearly did something for Eren, he even sounds like a new man. Erwin looks pretty badass with just the one arm. That's a plan crazy enough to either work or get us all killed, probably both at once. BOTH IT IS! It's easy to see why people love watching this show, even if they don't think it's all that good. FUCK YEAH PATRICIDE. It's honestly amazing how far Historia's come along since the days in which we knew her only as Krista. Meanwhile, Kenny's just spent the entire day wandering around with a slowly leaking stomach wound and a nasty burn on half of his face. SHIT COUNT: 4. Oh shit he's got the make-a-Titan kit. JOJO'S BIZARRE ADVENTURE: DIAMOND IS UNBREAKABLE - "And from the sound of things, they're close to calling the police." What good will Koichi's dog do in this situation? She even booby-trapped the bathroom with history questions. The answer's 1492, it's not that difficult. Begging her's not gonna work. In fact, it made her want you even more! How much crazier can you get with a girl after a strange turn-on for soiled undergarments? The answer: a homemade electric chair. Mmm, Italian. Morioh's certainly bigger and more seaside than I expected. Fuck yeah, a payphone! "Oh, of all the times to be out of pocket change!" NOBODY EXPECTS OUTDOORS YUKAKO. And to no one's surprise, she's psychic. He wasn't planning on using the emergency button, so go ahead and destroy it, see if he cares any more than he already does. Smart thinking there, Koichi. Oh great, now she's even more in love with him after that stunt. JOY BUZZER DOOR HANDLE, GO! That's our Koichi, finding creative ways to solve his problems. Too bad for him, Yukako's as yandere as you can get, short of going full Yuno Gasai. Aww shit, his STAND's gone into hibernation. If he was dead, you'd be dead too. Vaping is safer than BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAP. Turns out it's just molting. REVERB has evolved into SEMI-PERFECT REVERB. And now Yukako's blasting off again. Fwoosh. Josuke and Okuyasu have arrived. Time for a character development self-haircut. REPLY TO ANGEL 2: "And then Koichi was Guile." Alternately, von Stroheim. "Hey, I think it's that house!" "Gee, ya think?" Yep, she's gonna fuck his corpse if it comes to that. KABOOM. It shocked her so bad, her hair turned white. I guess the lesson to learn here is, don't fuck with a yandere. And like Polnareff before him, Koichi's now the target of threats towards his genitalia. SHIT COUNT: 2. BOIOIOING. Truly he is the perfect man for you, and yet you can't have him. So why isn't he the protagonist again? You gotta love local urban legends. Koichi get a feeling so complicated. BLACK CLOVER - I think my main problem with the old temple master guy is the look on his face. There's something off about his eyes. I bet Yami's staying behind to fight the creepy old man himself. Asta might not be good for much magic-wise, but at least he can lift. Never mind, he's staying behind to drink some booze and watch his men try not to get killed with the creepy old man. BASTARD COUNT: 1. Of course Luck isn't intimidated. Just because they have the least gold stars, it doesn't mean they're weak. Quit laughing and talking about your toes, old man. Never underestimate the Black Bulls. "There, now that's done, we can move on to much more important things." Like Marie? "Like getting back to Marie." As I thought. Water numerals, how fun. Finral's actually fun to watch whenever he isn't fantasizing about/actually hitting on the ladies while the rest of the Black Bulls show off their running gags at the same time. Yep, definitely like wuss Finral better than casanova wannabe Finral. Yami, you magnificent bastard. Mmm, crabs. That's some surprisingly meaty seafood you've got there. It's best you know not to get between Charmy and her food. Okay, I'm 99.9% convinced that lady mage is the surprisingly annoying idol chick from a few episodes ago. Okay, now I'm 100% convinced. "I headed this way 'cause I thought I was picking up on something pretty strong. Turns out it's just you." I'm confused, does water beat electricity, or is it the other way around? ASTA THE EEL SLAYER. NEXT MATCH: the magic of never giving up vs. the magic of interpretive dance. I like this dancing swordfish dude. As I thought, he was human this entire time. 101% CONVICTION. What if Buu had the mentality of his Majin form but the appearance of his Super form? The answer lies in next week's episode. When you really think about it, all friends wind up being rivals at one point or another. Here's an idea, try not aiming for her, an attack like that's bound to hit her eventually. Huh, so she has gotten better, supposedly. You gotta move like water, Asta. You've got the right idea but the wrong application. Nice, she won while everyone's attention was directed elsewhere. They're only junior rank because they cause too much collateral damage for any sane person to promote them. Oh, so the third one's his son. Aaaaand his grimoire looks like the notebook of a teenage girl whose favorite book was The Rainbow Fish. Oh crap, it's that Midnight Sun dude with the literal yellow skin. It's a stupid-sounding jingle, no wonder you're flubbing it up at every attempt. HUNTER x HUNTER - Definitely looks like he was off-screen giving him the finger there. Oh wow, it actually cut her open to operate. Shlee can feel Gon's rage from there. Damn this kid is intense. Please don't make me think of naked Pitou, I have standards for god's sake. You'd be surprised at how much the ants have matured while you were gone. Shiiiiiiit. Nobody knows what Pitou is doing, except the narrator and Killua. Huh, this is a new song. Every word you say cuts into Gon's skin like a million little knives, or however that analogy goes. No one ever expected Komugi. And then Pitou learned what it truly means to fear someone. Those are not the eyes of a sane boy. AND THAT'S NOT THE VOICE OF ONE EITHER. I don't think logical thinking's gonna work on him at this point, Killua. Wow, all this tension's sapping my ability to make shoddy attempts at witty comments, it's just that captivating. Welp, that's a crisis of conscience. Like I said. Too tense for words. "I've calmed down now." Have you, Gon? Have you? That kid drives an extremely hard bargain. Only four cast members this episode, that has to be a new record.

I'd have brought up the example of him swearing vengeance against Pizza Hut over a bad coupon, but yeah, that.

By having a mindset more generous than Daos's "it's below a 7.00 average so it's automatically shit" thought process. I bet his opinion on Ninja Nonsense (assuming he has one) would reverse were its average score to increase by 0.01 overnight.

This week's relevant fan art.

Senran Kagura 11 Senran Kagura 12 (act 1) My Hero Academia 23 Senran Kagura 12 (act 2)

Took their time showing us the episode title, huh. Seriously, though, I had a huge stupid grin on my face for the past couple minutes there. This show really knows how to hype you up.

YUTAKA NAKAMURA SAKUGA SPOTTED

AWW YESSSSSS HIS FACE

"Where did mama go?" She went to the asylum.

And, to no one's surprise, Endeavor is an abusive piece of shit.

SURPRISE HEADBUTT!

Eraserhead knows what's up.

Holy shit Bakugo being analytical I don't know how to feel about this. KIDNEY SHOT!

Using the same finger twice? Damn, his bones have to be shattered at this point, if not a fine powder.
