You're so full of shit, Mochi. As the resident expert on what studios produced which anime, Inukami was produced not by Pierrot, but by Seven Arcs, the studio responsible for Nanoha, Dog Days, Sekirei, Asura Cryin', and the first White Album anime. I can understand you wanting to talk about this show, but at least do some proper research next time.

Naruto 209

I noticed that the January 6 schedule for Toonami skips an episode of Gundam IBO, while Cowboy Bebop has two episodes skipped. I'm confident it's just a programming error, but I can't help but wonder if it's going to stay unfixed by the time it actually shows up on the legit schedule...

Your Lie in April 16

I don't think tonight's marathon needs any explanation. Just sit back and enjoy the nostalgia, unless you're either not watching or Ben. 10:30 - Cowboy Bebop #1 - Asteroid Blues - TV-14LV 11:00 - Cowboy Bebop #2 - Stray Dog Strut - TV-14LV 11:30 - Cowboy Bebop #3 - Honky Tonk Women - TV-14LV 12:00 - Avey Tare: Ms. Secret - TV-14 12:05 - Cowboy Bebop #4 - Gateway Shuffle - TV-MALS 12:30 - Cowboy Bebop #5 - Ballad of Fallen Angels - TV-MALSV 1:00 - Cowboy Bebop #6 - Sympathy for the Devil - TV-14LV 1:30 - Cowboy Bebop #7 - Heavy Metal Queens - TV-MALS 2:00 - Cowboy Bebop #8 - Waltz for Venus - TV-14LSV 2:30 - Cowboy Bebop #9 - Jamming with Edward - TV-PG 3:00 - Cowboy Bebop #10 - Ganymede Elegy - TV-PGLV 3:30 - Cowboy Bebop #11 - Toys in the Attic - TV-14L

Funny enough, that Super GIF is considered one of the show's LOW points in animation quality.

If you're talking about the actual production studio, though, it's SHAFT.

Pop Team Epic, full stop.

Only the death of Oda can end One Piece, but not even then...

As long as JoJo's still on the schedule, I'm perfectly okay with whatever changes are made to reduce the, uh, soiling. [i really wish we didn't have to call it that]

Kuroko's Basketball 2

...Shit like this is why I hate you now.

I'd be up for that.

Like I said: JoJo soiled the sheets, Black Clover soiled the mattress. Your bias towards JoJo isn't gonna save you this time, Jingai.

>blaming JoJo's poor retention on the show itself and not Black Clover Get the hell outta here. Still, Shippuden's retention is pretty great. As to be expected from best (non-Hinata or Temari) girl Tenten.

And now for some replies to Foley. As to be expected from our resident anti-lolicon crusader. Eh, I personally wouldn't write off Stick Dinner's manner of speaking and terrible jokes as "not strongly objectionable". Lupin's car, like Lupin himself, runs on the power of sheer toonforce. In all fairness, OG Filler Hell Naruto (the character) is kinda dumb.

[sigh] Freaking Star Wars nerds... LUPIN THE 3RD: THE ITALIAN ADVENTURE - I'd make an Amtrak joke here, but that's beneath me. So apparently this takes place back before Robson grayed. I'm honestly surprised Rebecca's still fairly young. Hoy malloy not another marriage proposal. Turns out it was just a movie, but it was based on a true story so there's a little truth to it. You go to eat sushi in Italy when there's a perfectly fine pizza place right next door. Lupin's a thief, he doesn't have to pay for your food! SURPRISE ZENIGATA. That Zeni really needs to get a hobby. Now this is train racing. This guy is like all the negative stereotypes about otaku rolled into one, but without any of the herbivorous tendencies. Okay that was too quiet what did he say. Man the Italian police really suck. SHEEEEEEEEEEP! "Don't shoot anything important." I think I get what he meant by that. Man his car is surprisingly resilient. Zenigata brandishing that fish like a knife. (Fuckin' knife!) "You knew the risks when you decided to drive drunk become a fireman." Okay, now the Japanese guy going for sushi in Italy? That makes sense. And people say the Italian soundtrack is shit. I love how this is more Lupin and Zenigata on a road trip than I expected it to be. Easy, you catch him with your combined wits. At least Asta never used his marriage proposals as a threat. And people say they never wanted Lupin on Toonami. SIDEWAYS WHEELIE. And in the end, nothing exploded, and for the better. Lupin/Zenigata is the best friendly rivalry. So they wound up combining Lupin and Robson into one character in the end, huh. And now we're back to where the whole season started. REPLY TO ANGEL 4: "That was nice but wasn't Da Vinci about to take over the world?" That's what the last three episodes are for. NARUTO SHIPPUDEN - If your episode implies that Tenten is gonna have a lead role, you're gonna have a bad time. Ah, so it's Gai's fault all the team formations in Filler Hell are how they were! Tenten the best choice for captain on this mission? Inconceivable! Neji's embarrassment's running pretty high, and he isn't even blushing. Sounds like a lot, but at least it's better than picking up ninja dog poop. I feel like I've heard that phrase before. I don't know who this kid is but I don't like his look. Clearly what they need are special gloves to handle the double-bladed kunai and thousand-bladed shuriken, so they aren't as dangerous to the wielder. Naruto: The Human Shuriken. Well at least it hit the bullseye. What a nice little conversation between those two. My word, that trowel is infused with Nen chakra! Welcome to Deathtrap City, population: you. Oh goddammit Neji. You think they have any brick buildings at all in that town of pig-people? Fuck yeah, electronic dance music. "We need tungsten to live! TUNGSTEN!" Not even Naruto can believe how useful Tenten is being this episode. Tenten, you weapons nerd. That's a big-ass scroll. Because you can't have a filler episode without a couple enemy ninja. You fucked up now, nerd JYB. I'll admit, those weapons are pretty cool. It also ain't filler unless Naruto's using Rasengan in a situation that doesn't really require it. A giant spiky ball of sorts. I don't think that shield's meant to defend against a giant spiky ball of doom. It appears that getting her back broken by Temari was a step in the right direction for Tenten after all. This was definitely one of the better fillers of the bunch that aired so far. Huh, so that's what Tender Touches looks like... Weird. OUTLAW STAR - What an ominous opening narration. What an equally ominous gathering of assassins. Of course the XGP would be the reason they're after Gene's head. Aisha likes playing dating sims. Melfina's looking especially '90s today. Is this guy Jigsaw? BELIEVE IT COUNT: 1. When you're tryin' to propose and all else fails, always rely on the lollipop and cat-o'-nine-tails. (Bullhorn.) HEART BLAKE. Gene's too depressed to get laid tonight. I wonder what they replaced "smartass" with on the Toonami version, considering it's not in the list of edits for this specific episode. I don't know if I should cower in glory or in fear of Aisha's cooking. What a nice friendly chat about mortality. Dammit Gene, don't be a jackass, especially to Melfina. Too soon, Grand Theft Auto. Way too fucking soon. So if Gene dies, that means Aisha's the main character now? DOUBLE KILL. Or perhaps not. Well, at least that guy had his priorities straight. Gene's lip flaps are all shot to hell this week. Turns out Gene's drinking buddy was the true Shimi after all. SURPRISE MISSILES. TRUMP CARD COUNT: 1. Why am I surprised that he knows Melfina's name? You know, I wasn't really all that big on Melfina's voice when I first saw this clip on Toonami Pre-Flight. LAAAAAAME. So much for the power of friendship. That shot of nervous Gene is pretty effing kino. I can't help but wonder if he lost purely by accident or completely on purpose. Gene's luck stats are maxed out. And then Aisha was white, how disappointing. Looks like Shimi's alive, but at least now he can quit the Anten Seven in peace. COWBOY BEBOP - I find it interesting that they're keeping the old rating for this episode, of all episodes. Bebop really does the original music box melodies well. Man, what does this night's block have against scorpions? I wonder who the first one was. Getting up after getting shot is hard work. Glasses guy has had a rough day. "He's one of those kinda guys, huh?" Only now do I get that. Is this Steve Conte singing this insert? [checks the Bebop wiki] That it is. Meanwhile, Ed's waiting for everybody else as patiently as she can. Damn that Vicious, always playing dirty. I had a gut feeling Julia was the "first one". Vicious should participate in these space cruiser battles more often. Huh, so the box still works after all. AND HE SET IT UP THE BOMB THAT MADMAN. Oh yeah, this is the only time Spike and Gren actually interacted face-to-face. The difference in the color of Spike's eyes is very subtle, but it's there. So what gender is that kid who was hanging out with Sitting Bull anyways? Hell, why's that kid even hanging out with him to begin with? Good, they left in "Do you have a comrade?". "You shot Dad!" Yeah, with a paintball gun. Besides, he's Christopher Walken, he's been through worse. GHOST IN THE SHELL: STAND ALONE COMPLEX 2ND GIG - I knew there was something familiar about the odd way the Major and Prime Minister Kayabuki were drawn in certain scenes this episode, and that's because this episode's animation director was the character designer for MOUSE. You know, that anime about the master thief whose assistants are also his obedient sex slaves? Surely one of you bought it as an instrument of torture over the past ten years I've known you all... Goda was a real scoundrel this episode, but him freaking out during the helicopter jump was rather amusing. Damn straight the Major's scary, she was called "Queen Kong" during the last World War for a reason. I swear, it's like I'm watching a completely different show, now that I'm 23 and actually paying close attention.

Jojo may have soiled the sheets, but Black Clover diarrhea'd the whole damn mattress.
