Ignoring my distaste for political banter in places where political banter shouldn't belong, just take a good look at this line. TOM would never say this. He has no reason to care about American politics. Steve Blum does. Jason Demarco does. But TOM does not. And even if he did, I doubt he'd even think of tainting what's meant to be five and a half - soon to be six - hours of him and SARA transmitting action cartoons to expectant viewers with the pettiest of insults. So yeah. "Sane".

WHAT THE FUCK DID I JUST SAY ABOUT KEEPING THE POLITICS IN DUMPSTER FIRES? Seriously, if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all.

I'm ashamed I never got to interact with him much, but he was definitely the best of the mods I've interacted with. Better than Bast. Better than Nayru. Hell, even better than Odin.

Wait, what happened.

BLACK CLOVER - My bet is everyone's either sleeping or drunk off their ass. (In Vanessa's case, probably both.) DELICIOUS BROWN. Oh hey, they started subtitling his dialogue, finally. Now that I can actually read what he's saying, I'm starting to hear him better now. Of course he winds up running into the other creepy guy in the house. Do bar tabs count as a drinking problem, because I think Yami might have several. Yep, called it. GREG AYRES SCREECH. How does one silence a mirror? Nobody ever expects shadow clones, even when they're expecting them. "Your magic is officially awesome, Gauche! But your personality still needs a lotta work." Next time he'll aim for the wall and hit you! Did they write that line that way on purpose? MY LEG. Oh just bang already in the universe where nuns aren't off-limits, you two. I'm not surprised those two know each other. Dammit why do I love his sparkly eyes so much. Yes, keep those nun-wedding thoughts in your mind where they belong. Poor, misguided Greg Ayres. Wait, is that girl who I think it is? Welp, there go Gordon's subtitles. SALLY A CUTE. Damn you, femdom fetish, for making me find this hot. That's one serious hickie. "I have learned that the only way to defeat a sticky salamander... is to burn it." Three episodes of screentime, and she's already more of a keeper than Sister Lily. Hmm, she wasn't bad-looking back then either. FOR LITTLE FUEGO'S MISSING ARM! Dammit, that's another crazy waifu for the harem. Even Asta is intimidated! Asta caring about all the kids while Gauche just takes Marie and runs like the selfish man he is. In this show, suggestive dialogue just means that Gauche is more of a siscon than usual. If the fire leopard's job was to cheer the children up, then it definitely succeeded. You have to take responsibility! Old nun is so kewl. Just because you're correct, it doesn't mean you're right. Those nobles sound like they're saying nice things, so why the sinister overtones? And then they were Batman's parents. The reason for your dedication to her is admirable in all, but did you have to go full siscon as a result? Surely there was another way. LOLIPUNCH. He only joined the Black Bulls because they're the only ones who can even stand his perpetual siscon attitude. Even after finally respecting her wishes, Gauche still gonna be Gauche. You're gonna eat those words in about five seconds. "Is he insane or just an idiot?" He's both. Clearly the solution is to shoot magic at it faster than it can regenerate from it. [poof] Sloppy fighting does not necessarily equal poor fighting. Those kids aren't too happy that they're leaving the cave last. Sweet, a new blade. And the power-up did absolutely nothing. Yep, just as I thought. That imagery doesn't look too fitting. That's a freaky eye. TOO MANY ASTAS. Fuck yeah, teamwork! Well, what's important is that he knows what he did wrong and wants to change it. BACKSTABBED. And frontstabbed. OLD NUN NOOOOO. NARUTO SHIPPUDEN - No, I'd say she's perfectly estimating him, the man hyperventilated like crazy when he learned the truth, for crying out loud. I'd call Sai the sane one, but considering how edgy Sasuke got last episode, I'm not sure what to think. Telling your dog not to be a scaredy-cat. All according to Sakura's keikaku. Oh hey, I remember this flashback. Good, they skipped the part where she said she hated Naruto (which I'm certain she only said because it was the first thing that came to mind while she was fangirling over Sasuke). SUDDENLY OROCHIMARU. Long story short, it was the most painful hickie of his life. If Sasuke really is an Avenger, then I hope he was one of the many victims of the snap that halved the world population. As tough as watching all the blatant Sasu/Saku shipping, I'm enjoying this return trip through OG Naruto. FIGHT ME LOSER. What an inappropriate time to have a gratuitous ass shot. You say you were left behind, and yet you officially outrank both of them. [Venezuelan soap opera music intensifies] Naruto, your sense of obligation is highly questionable. This is easily the best Toonami music video in years. Meanwhile, Danzo is still dead. All that's inside there now are a bunch of wasted stones. Patience is a virtue, Sasuke. If Karin bit herself, would she be able to heal herself or would it just not work? HOLY FUCK A BEAR. Huh, so she was participating in that Chunin Exam too... Interesting little tidbit. KILLBLOCKED. And so the two girls finally meet, more or less. Goddammit Sakura. This Ready Player One commercial makes me wanna punch something. Preferably one of those three assholes talking down the kid who just doesn't give a fuck. FUCK YEAH OBLIGATORY FULL OPENING TIME. Hmm, so Sasuke admits they were friends. Or maybe that was all part of the dream half of that flashback. Well, at least Yamato's here. Last episode was about Sakura's relationship with Sasuke, this time it's Naruto's turn to reminisce. I prefer "you're the one I want to fight the most". It may have been a dub workaround back in the OG Toonami days, but there's just something powerful about Sasuke saying he wants to "destroy" Itachi instead of just straight-up killing him. [s-CRY-ed-style yelling intensifies] And that's why Kakashi was the referee. Even now, I can never get over Sasuke's Curse Mark Level 2 Allstate Helping Hands wings. Not hungry, you say. Not even for ramen? Reminder that Orochimaru did what he did in order to keep all the knowledge he amassed over time alive past his natural lifespan. And then the porridge turned too cold. Okay that's a clever escape tactic. We all know what's going through your head, Sasuke: murder and edge. Being a Kage is all about going through on the tough decisions. That crying baby during that one piece of background music still disturbs me. Shit, the episode's over already?

Happy Sugar Life 4 Chuukan Kanriroku Tonegawa 6

That's our Chad Shonen Hero for ya.

Initial D: Fourth Stage 17

Actually, they did. According to the president of Production I.G USA, the Japanese dub of Progressive has (will have?) the thug's dialogue spoken in English, and the dub crew decided to dub it Japanese as a fun reversal situation. Additional fun fact: the guy they brought in to record the Japanese dialogue was the guy who played the front third of the original Human Centipede. In more serious matters, my family's pet cat of 14 years has died. She had a pretty bad tumor on one of her front legs that was planned to be amputated, but more tumors have popped up "throughout", rendering her inoperable, and we decided it was better for her to be put down than for her to waste away at home. She lasted through my entire middle school, high school, and college undergrad careers, and on top of that my time to now watching both [adult swim] and anime outside of the televised-in-the-U.S. stuff. It's been a good run, and though I showed her the least affection and bother out of everyone in my family, I'm going to miss her just as much. T_T You know what, the mood in the house is too depressing for me to even bother with Black Clover. I'll save it, Naruto and Dandy for later this week, whatever days that may be. I'm just gonna do Hunter today. HUNTER x HUNTER - KUYASHII. People love to be challenged, especially when victory is a difficult path. So congratulations, you're on the path to becoming a people. Alternately, like drool from her mouth. We FKMT now. Or maybe not, considering there's no money involved. Huh, wasn't expecting his condition to be so... tame, compared to what we've seen. Someone get this girl some tissues. And here he was trying to go easy on her. Your parents are harsh folks. "This girl's a weird one. Lucky for her, I like weird." ALL BETS ARE OFF. And so is his arm. BITCHSLAPPED. This show, man. It really is captivating. So much so, that it's hard for me to come up with anything to say. Talking about this is less awkward than forcing comments, or making none at all after so many ones in close proximity to one another. Kinda cute for an Eldritch doctor puppet thing. It takes so much nen, even her dialogue sounds sluggish. Freeze frame bugs. There's Gon and Killua's cameo for the episode. He should've made a full Ghillie suit instead of a half-assed half of one. The Secret President was hiding in the bathroom this whole time. I love these giant character cluster pans. Even in Fantasy North Korea, overwork is a very Japanese issue. Oh no, he's an SAO villain. For a second there, I thought that woman there was his wife or daughter. And it was Palm this whole time. And this was when the bad news was received. He says he'll take her left arm, but he wound up taking his instead. Funny how that works out. "Finally, some cover from this rain..." Are you blind, that doesn't look like fruit to me. Black hole transmutation circles? YOU SAW NOTHING. I understand discarding your shoes, but why leave the socks? Were you even wearing any to begin with? Something tells me DIO's at the top of those stairs. Dammit Pitou stop looking cute I'm supposed to hate you. TV really is the best means of recognition. Yeah, fuck those guys we just introduced two episodes ago. Welcome to the year of Levi. Like I said, an SAO villain. Aha, so he knew Palm was following him this whole time. "To the fuck farm!" That's an awfully large space for just five women. He's gonna fuck the tall one first, good choice. And then he had a mental breakdown. To be fair, only Gon was ready to face it. Then again, Killua was still under Illumi's hands-off control when he made the choice to flee... Plain-looking Palm is still a cute. The random ice shift is one of my favorite underappreciated anime cliches. That chapel doesn't look so underground to me. Then again, that white light could be faked... ATHEISM!!! Seriously, how can Viz get away with "Deep Purple" here, but not "Crazy Diamond" in JoJo? He's tingling with excitement. I appreciate someone who puts on tunes to fight to. Oh shit he's actually doing it. And it's a rock opera, too! It sucks, being at odds with people who share your interests. [r.i.p. gabby 2002-2018]

Shit Toonami, get it together.

Recommendations are back up, but the forums are still down. I'm tired of waiting, so I just PMed the mod for the Anime Watching Challenge my question about the "watch one of the top 5 recommended anime to your favorite" item. So either Durarara!! is fair game and I'll watch Heaven's Memo Pad, or only Eureka seveN is worthy and I'm stuck watching Darling in the FRANXX.

Hellsing 3-4

Armored Trooper Votoms 10

Yes, I was referring to Hiruzen when I said Sarutobi. DRAGONBALL SUPER - The ramen stand at the end of the universe. I wonder if aliens have ever heard the expression "knock on wood", because Jaco really should've done that. I never knew Gohan and Mr. Satan's mock fights for Videl were film adaptation material. Follow us on SpaceBook for more details. So many fangirls, and cute ones at that. This guy's certainly got an ego. The whole "sneezing when someone mentions you" superstition is my favorite Japanese anime cliche, bar none. Something about this girl's voice seems off to me. Only one year old and Pan already hates NTR. That's a high mouth. Ah, so that's how stuntmen work. Barry, you prick. Gohan may be a jobber, but damn if he isn't a good family man. Because the Great Saiyaman can't do heroics without showing off a little. That video was A E S T H E T I C as fuck. I love it. Don't fuck with the director. Videl confirmed for mask fetishist? Dude, you're smarter than your father, I'm sure you can figure it out with time. FUCK YEAH POLICEMAN KRILLIN. Geez, how many of the two-bit human villains in this show bear a striking resemblance to Nappa? OH YEAHHHHHHHHH. That's another one for the Krillin PWNED counter. You went to jail, and the first thing you did was go back to robbing banks. Man, these guys are idiots. No one expects alien buttsecks! I'm alright with the super strength upgrade, but why do his shoulders look so dangerously furry? So the Kamehameha being ridiculously powerful memed its way into even filler, it seems. Of course Krillin has no idea that the Great Saiyaman shtick turns Videl on like it's nobody's business. If you need a quick and reasonable excuse, Bulma's your woman. Okay, maybe not "reasonable", per se, but in the Dragonball universe, what isn't unreasonable by real-world standards? A love triangle with Bryn Apprill as the third girl? It's like I can already hear Elfie dropping this show like a ton of bricks. Hey, remember that time Piccolo blew up the moon? (I don't think anybody does...) Oh goddammit Jaco. Sweet, new ending theme. I ain't buyin' that shit unless Superman actually does die. CLIFFHANGER... averted. Not even Jaco was expecting it to be that strong. "Goku's not-as-capable uninspiring son!" It hurts, but he's right. Superhuman powers and dangerously furry shoulders. Two thousand zeni says he goes after Barry C*nt next. Being a nice guy works, I suggest you try it sometime. "You're mine now, rat." Gohan seems to be posing a lot more often than usual. I wonder if something happened... Fuck you, Barry. If the transition didn't work for the gal in Pacific Rim 1, like hell it's gonna work for her. "I can fly around and I do hang out with aliens. Hell, I'm a half-alien myself!" WE GOTTA BE BETTER THAN WE WERE YESTERDAY. You'd be surprised at the variety of graveyard shift jobs in today's economy. Fuck you again, Barry, now I really hope Watagash goes all brain slug on you. Thank Kami, she doesn't know... OH WAIT NOW SHE DOES. This is the best scenario that could have happened and I love it. And they say getting ryona-ed by Spopovich extinguished Videl's backbone completely... I love how the dub is playing up his ego. Called it. You don't tell me what to when watching cartoons Saita-WHOAWHATTHEFUCK. OH YEAHHHHHHHHHHHH! "Hey bby." No, not the toy bin! AWW YEAH IT'S THE FUJI TV BUILDING. They sure love putting it in their own programming, don't they. Because you can't have a Shonen Jump filler without at least one poop joke. Aw shit, he's gone full furry now. ORA ORA ORA. Friendly reminder that Videl can also fly. We beyond furry now. WE SCALY. "Damn you, scoliosis!" You also can't have a huge battle without the equivalent of Tokyo Tower getting wrecked in the process. SUDDENLY JACO. Do you want to scar Pan for life? Yep, Gohan's method sucks. Plus he's half-Saiyan, they get stronger every time they're nearly killed. GO HAN! Super Great Saiyaman, how original. Nature makes the best lighting. Defeated and naked, just what he deserves. And now Goten's into Great Saiyaman again. This is probably the only time I'm on board with Chi-Chi being comically bitchy towards Goku. And so we return to the ramen stand at the end of the universe. KNOCK ON WOOD, JACO, KNOCK ON THE FUCKING WOOD! MY HERO ACADEMIA - Still not sure if they killed Thirteen or not. It's really hard to tell when there's no body inside the spacesuit. And that ray of hope is pissed. as. HELL. Okay, s/he's twitching, so they're still alive, if only barely. "And he's not smiling..." That means shit's about to go down, son. Ouuuuuch, his elbow still. Shut up, Handjob Man. BELIEVE IN ALL MIGHT. Birdbrain's an alright name, but I think No Might is still the best one, based on his directive. Sick burn, Tsuyu. I'm starting to get a little tired of Deku's pessimistic way of thinking, anyone else with me there? "Punch him right in the balls!" That's fighting dirty, Grape Boy. He knows that knocking on wood isn't gonna help anybody this time. Clearly the solution is to take out the black fog guy, assuming such a thing is even possible. I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M SAYING THIS BUT THANK YOU BAKUGO. Ditto for you, Todoroki. THEN USE CONCEALER. Nobody expects Bakugo, there was nothing he could do. Villainous or not, he's still made of less edge than Sasuke, and that's technically a plus. Regenerative powers are a real bitch. "Hayai!? Well, so am I!" [bullhorn] That sounds deep, but also like the world's biggest excuse. A thumbs up means everything is A-OK, at least at the moment. He's got one Namek minute left! FUCK YEAH YOU SAY RUN. ORA ORA ORA. Oh shit, he's gonna go 110%! You gotta love BONES' A-game action animation. FUCK YEAHHHHH PLUS ULTRA! Take that, clouds. Over 300... now that's impressive, even for someone way below that necessary level. Oh yeah, I forgot about those three for a moment. "They totally caught us with our pants down." That's kind of a strange statement for you to say, especially since one of you is wearing a skirt. I just realized short-circuited Kaminari looks like a One Punch Man character. Scratch your neck hard enough, and you're liable to lose some skin. But he is a villain, so I doubt he'd really mind. Deku, I get how reasonable your thinking is, but dammit would it kill you to be a little less pessimistic? And now he's scratching with two hands! SHIT COUNT: 1. I honestly don't know how to feel about Deku anymore. BANG. Oh hey, reinfor-hold up, who's that chick in the middle there 'cause I like her. YEAHHHHHHHHHHH. [cue Won't Get Fooled Again] FUCK YOU HANDJOB MAN. And once again, All Might is the optimism that counterbalances Deku's seemingly endless pessimism. Because you can't have a shounen without ridiculously huge One Piece tears. Okay, that promo minimalism is making me psyched for AoT 3. Can't wait. Ah, the joy of mutual relief. Meanwhile, at the most conspicuous of secret hideouts... Wait, so there's two people on the other side of that "SOUND ONLY" screen? I UNDERSTAND YOUR FRUSTRATION. This show really wants to ship Tail Boy with Invisible Girl. Nobody cares, Aoyama. Ooh, looks like it's critical condition. Okay, now I'm convinced that Thirteen's just an empty spacesuit that magically gained consciousness one day. Police cat is a cute, no homo. Bakugo, you are one salty motherfucker. Is it wrong for me to pick two waifus from this show, because I want this dominatrix-looking heroine to share the position with Mt. Lady. Something tells me that scar over the principal's eye is important. Oh shit they found No Might. Never mind, Aizawa's stable. Why so serious, everyone? If you're wondering why this feels like a season finale episode... that's because it is. Luckily for you, we're going straight into season 2 starting next week, so no need to panic over hiatuses. Okay, who else was caught off-guard by that surprise series title announcement? POP TEAM EPIC - Don't you just hate it when they rate something MA and then censor the adult situations? [glares at Demarco] Welcome to shoujo anime, and I mean the real shoujo stuff. Hojo-senpai is my license plate. I'm not so much surprised by them being the parents than I am disturbed at how unpleasant they made their voices. I love that the normal people in this sketch are reasonably disturbed by Popuko and Pipimi's antics. STAND UP TO HIGH SCHOOL BULLYING. And that, colored folks, is how yanderes are born. Hojo-senpai confirmed for being faster than the average human. Thank god the knife stabbed the side that didn't have his heart. "For real... stop calling me senpai... We're in an English dub, for crying out loud..." Ah, the weird and wonderful joys of reincarnation. HOME RUN. We Food Network now. They simmer their food because it's easy~. WAZAAAAAP. I feel like this one made more sense in Japanese. MARILYN MONROE~. This would be funny if it wasn't so real. MITENAI. ****** Mouse? You think they'd uncensor this if Disney buys up Turner? Only PTE would make a sketch that's Alice in Wonderland meets Easy Rider, and not in the most literal of senses. Of course the promo made it sound like a regular ol' DBZ episode. You gotta love Nice Boat. Slightly more pleasant voices this time for them. Never hop on the incest train unless you're absolutely sure you want to. THE S.G.G.K. OF THE NIGHT. Pa pa pa, chin chin chin. Who is this "brother" you speak of? POP CHAW PIPIKEAW. I love how the guys' half of the MARILYN MONROE sketch is just them having an off-topic conversation. If Popuko was used as a weapon, there'd be no wars left. I knew it was you, Mickey *****! GET YOUR MOTOR RAMEN, RIDING DOWN THE HIGHWAY, LOOKIN FOR SOME RAMEN, AND WHATEVER COMES MY WAY~. Ara ara girls are the best haremettes, I dare you to convince me otherwise. Mmm, Hellshake Yano. You must be a real pussy to lose without at least making some move. If you watched Hikaru no Go on Toonami Jetstream, you're sure to appreciate this random reference. I like this chick's theme music. For those confused, shogi commentators usually consist of an analyst who knows the game and a female interviewer who is absolutely clueless about all the details. I love how the music cuts out whenever she speaks. That was some freaking Inazuma Eleven bullshit, that move. More like an android, those are the ones that look convincingly human. I hope you mean they were holograms in the metaphorical sense. KIMINONAWA... Personally I prefer OK BRAVO to YAS QUEEN. The regional body-link formation is my personal favorite. B-Bae... Gratuitous French, and it isn't even the French dude's turn to animate. I hope whoever receives that chocolate is one sugary dude. Bob Epic Team sure has interesting ways of interpreting things. Welp, so much for everyone watching this on a TV. FUN FACT: In the original Japanese dub of the guys' half, Popuko stated she wanted to open a fried chicken stand instead of becoming a paladin, as an ad-lib on the seiyuu's part. Still love this chick's theme music. Thank god I watched March Comes in Like a Lion, otherwise I'd be twice as lost as I am right now. QUITE THE JAM, FAMALAM. Her melting into ash will never not be disturbing. No one knows what the interviewer is talking about. "My state-of-the-art cybernetics!" So it was a baseball meet all along. Pipipipi > Pipibo, apparently. 10 spoonfuls of sugar is Popuko's preferred amount. Come to think of it, we've never even seen Popuko and Pipimi at school even though they wear the uniforms. "You there, the one who didn't follow my orders... I AM THE BOMBER." [licks your tears] These Girldrop previews are so confusing, is Sosogu and Daichi sharing a bed happening during the on-location filming or during their make-up for the school trip? And they say this is the anime of two seasons ago... That was a cool bump for Venture season 7. Can't wait to see how it shakes down in action. JOJO'S BIZARRE ADVENTURE: STARDUST CRUSADERS - Swinging through Egypt Tarzan-style. Aw crap, we Kakyoin backstory now. I've seen enough Akame ga KILL! to know where this is going... Life is tough, growing up with a real-life imaginary friend. Who cares about Polnareff, am I right? FORESHADOWING. The Emerald Splash may be able to be deflected, but there's no way to dodge it at this speed! I miss the days when those billboards were for 7Up. What an unfortunately uncomfortable position he finds himself in. Okay, this had better work... And it didn't. IT REALLY DIDN'T. It's a lot to take in, when the fatal blow happens that fast. Damn, nightfall really happens fast in Egypt, doesn't it. Huh, the narrator sounds slightly different from usual. SHIT COUNT: 1. If it's outlandish by real-world logic, it must be the work of a STAND, especially if said outlandishness has to do with time. Oh hey, Erina got namedropped. Sometimes it's easy to forget they both knew her, albeit in different stages of her characterization. Emerald Splash... DENIED. Or maybe not, thank you survival instincts. Press F for Kakyoin. T_T So has it been explained how DIO's able to just fly around like that? Kakyoin's dead, Polnareff, just like the Iron Giant. EUREKA! And now we see the moment that sealed his fate, as properly portrayed. Even in the most dramatic of moments, the JoJo memes never cease. Did anyone actually watch Art Prison, because I wanna know what the Sam Hell it's even about outside of torture porn for a critic in the wrong place at the wrong time. Yes, leave it to Joseph, the master of making up plans on the fly. Remember Hamon? Whether you do or not, now you know that it's weak to giant rocks that come out of nowhere. I can't believe they got away with an It's Raining Men reference, considering all the potential copyright strikes. Oh shut up, bystanders. SUDDENLY JOTARO. And his theme music stopped, that's never good. ZA WARUDO! We've already seen his evil through his killing Danny, so let's see how people react when a cat is put in danger thanks to his villainy. Further confirmation that DIO just doesn't give a shit about people. I still miss "Useless". "Activating shitstorm in 3, 2..." Shit, Joseph's dead, now things are really serious. Not even DIO cares about Polnareff. JOTARO KUJO: FEARLESS PROTAGONIST. Those sound like expensive pants. "You made me bleed my own blood... Excellent effort." Hmm, apparently the Egyptians were actually speaking Arabic in the Japanese version. I blame DIO for my DVR excising the first 20 seconds of the episode from the beginning of my recording. HOLY SHIT WE FULL OPENING NOW. DIO, you cheeky fourth-wall breaking bastard. His greatest fear: frozen time finger twitches. (Sounds like a kinky sex move.) Jotaro floats through the air by the power of his anger alone. We all miss the days of shirtless DIO. I once had that image of The World as my wallpaper before I even started watching JoJo properly. All this proves is that Jotaro is a fast learner. AND NOW DIO IS THE ONE BEING FISTED. "Bring it to me... like a flight attendant would!" Even his clothes can heal! Well, that's DIO for you. Okay, that time jump actually kinda spooked me. DIO and the Joestars know each other way too well. KNIVES! Man, I love reaching these iconic scenes. Ouch, right in the head. This means Polnareff is the only one left. May god have mercy on us all... Welp, never mind, thank you convenient manga books. Shit, I should've knocked on wood like Jaco. FUCK YEAH POLNAREFF! Okay, so Jotaro survives into the next season, but the question is how? Whatever it is, I'm liking the look of JoJo #4 regardless. Even when it's DIO, it's funny when Polnareff gets hurt. An on-purpose involuntary twitch is the best method of surprise. Oh you poor policemen, you are sooooo fucked. Just as he stopped a bullet in the beginning, Star Platinum is stopping bullets even now. GAH MY SEXY HEAD. The shock of sustaining injury after avoiding it for a whole century is so much for DIO, he can't process how to deal with it, even in the slightest capacity. SHIT COUNT: 5. If there's anything Jotaro learned from Avdol, it's that the only way to defeat a vampire... is to burn it. HELP ME KARS. So much for whoever's using that taxi. YOU EXPECTED SEWER RATS, BUT IT WAS I, JOTARO! God do I love watching DIO get his ass beaten. All this time, he was leading him around in a circle. Him sucking out Joseph's blood is terrible and all, but I can't take DIO seriously when he's looking like a butch lesbian. But hey, at least he's got a new name: Tequila DIO. [mariachi music]

Actually, starting August 18th, MHA is airing at the top of the block, so based on present track records, I do not expect it to be cut down at all.

[sigh] Writing these up without having seen last week's shows is a real endeavor, I tell ya what. Which is why I'm just gonna leave it like this and fill in the one-sentence synopses later. So for those re-reading this who still want the weekly descriptions, Jaco informs Gohan of the alien parasite he foolishly let escape him, All Might's strength was enough to ward off Nomu but is what little there is left enough to handle Shigaraki?, Hidomi's bubbly new personality causes a wide variety of reactions among her friends and family, all of you who watched Hikaru no Go on Toonami Jetstream are gonna appreciate this one, the moment of truth has arrived by which I mean Jotaro vs. DIO, Knov's infiltration of the King's palace puts him at a much greater risk than he's prepared for, Asta and Sister Theresa handle the mutant mud man while Gauche selfishly takes his sister and runs, now it's Naruto's turn to reminisce about his history with Sasuke, Dandy's allies team up to rescue him after he's finally kidnapped by the Gogol Empire in the series finale of Dandy, MUSHROOM HUNTING, and the murder of multiple assassins involved in the same past job catches Goemon's attention for all the wrong reasons. 10:30 - Dragonball Super #74 - For My Beloved Ones!

PTE's audience are shitposters, plain and simple.

Sometimes it takes a punchline for a joke to make you laugh. Other times all it takes is imagining Jim Rash shouting "Vegan Band" in his most excitedly flamboyant voice.

Or maybe they're just ass-stupid. I mean, who in their right mind thinks MHA isn't starting the block in spite of it airing ahead of DB Super on the schedule, just because the latter didn't change timeslots? People without their frontal lobes, that's who.

TAKE THE POLITICS TO DUMPSTER FIRES, YOU DICKS.

And you know what that means... We get the full version of THIS every week! Apologies for the full song link, FUNi doesn't have the TV version of either season 2 OP up. The drop from MHA to FLCL Progressive reruns is less than the drop from DB Super to MHA, so by that logic, I don't think the move up is that mind-boggling.

I was waiting for someone to bring that up.

The community, duh.
