I figured that. Still, it's not Lupin's replacement, so even with this reveal, I'm still gnashing my teeth with anticipation.

Pretty much so.

At least it's not the original Japanese dub, that much we can be thankful for. So... any word on what it's replacing?

Reminder that the Dragon Balls don't work with death by natural causes.

Are you referring to Dorothy Fahn or Luci Christian? Still, RIP.

Hence why I'm choosing to view it as a whole new story that just so happens to take place in (and advantage of) the FLCL universe. You people really need to learn how to interpret the word "sequel" differently.

I can't write anything in a new window, I can't put in spoiler tags or embed images the way I used to, I can't edit anything whenever I please, I can't even manage the amount of space between lines of text... Not to mention that fact that no one warned me this update was even going to happen outside of I assume the actual site folder. Face it: this update sucks, and I'm actually worse off because of it.

March Comes in Like a Lion 27

Because he's Leonardo da Vinci and he can do whatever he wants. COUNTDOWN Huh, so they aren’t waiting until the break in DBZ Kai to continue the story. Well the lighting is definitely moody. Shit, the Clydes all stole TOM’s face! SUPER RUN AWAY! I understand what Astral Projection!TOM is getting at, but the way he’s saying it, someone’s bound to be confused. Well that sucks for… just about everybody. CRAZY THEORY OF THE WEEK: the nebula they flew through was where the Intruder originated from to begin with. “Must be Saturday.” Cheeky. Clydes really are useless, aren’t they? DRAGONBALL SUPER “Now I’ll show you the Kaioken!” “Kaio-what?” I love that no matter the power level, the Kamehame-ha is still treated as the be-all end-all. It’s funny when Champa gets hurt. We’re running on playground make-up bullshit logic now, apparently. Hit takes offense to that “pawn” comment. Telepathic conversation, go! Tough given the circumstances, maybe. Vados sounds like she’s about to get… aroused. ORAORAORAORAORAORAORA! “Impossible!” Nothing’s impossible in Dragonball! Unless you’re trying to bring people back to life in Trunks’ shitty timeline. I love Beerus’s reaction here with the tongue-wiggling. Screw the rules, I’m Super Saiyan Blue with Kaioken! And then brotherly argument. Sometimes I wonder if ringing out on purpose after proposing a rule disposal was Goku’s plan all along. And then he suffered the short-term effects of steroid abuse. It’s amazing that I don’t hate Beerus now as much as I did six months ago. Whis is still love, though. More like Moe-naka, am I right? This is so ridiculous and bad it wraps right back around to being hilariously awesome. HOORAY FOR MONAKA. That’s no tentacle; that’s a gentacle! Champa truly is the sorest loser of all. FROST IS DED. This little guy must be super-important if he’s got the freaking Destroyers scared shitless. DRAGONBALL Z KAI You think they’re talking about Gotenks when they say “the mightiest of men”? Buu sink their battleship! And their whaaaaaaaaaaales. That guy totally wishes he drowned instead. STOP. Gotenks Time~. You should’ve vaporized the whole body, then. Welp, so much for the “mightiest of men”, then. Sometimes I wonder why “military intelligence” is a famous oxymoron, and moments like this give me that reason. DELAYED FACEPLANT. You think Gohan needs to use the restroom after standing still for so long? IT’S BUU’S SUPER-DEFORMED THEATRE! Too soon, show. Turns out the “mightiest of men” was Mr. Satan all along. The Championship belt’s off, shit just got real. MANLY HANDS. I actually kinda like this dorky BGM. “I fart in your general direction!” This is going over better than any of us expected. Don’t you mean “Gamepoy”? Satan does not know what he got himself into. JOJO’S BIZARRE ADVENTURE: STARDUST CRUSADERS You gotta love textile shops. I think the loli just realized that Avdol isn’t with them. Holy crap Jotaro is so cool. Ah yes, good ol’ pre-9/11 Pakistan. That fog-covered town just below that cliff looks pretty comfy, in an unconventional kind of way. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t think they’ve even made it to the Middle East yet. A dead dog? ARAKIIIIIIIII. That’s an overreaction if I’ve ever seen one. Gah, roaches! Eughhh, lizards! “Why is he lying dead in the road?” Because you moved him, duh. Polnareff isn’t exactly the brightest. Kakyoin, you’re Japanese, you should know all about turning your back to obvious tragedy. Gross, boils! :barf: The word “Tokyoite” confused my dad just now. Wow, the show’s not even sugarcoating the fact that the fog is really a STAND. Good god, that corpse looks like it walked out of a Machino Henmaru manga! Cartoon cheese from Tom & Jerry. OH SHIT THAT AIN’T THE CAR! Oh double shit, it’s Enyaba. They have B&Bs in Pakistan? Between boil lady and those two ugly dudes, this town is filled with 1/10s. If only those fun facts were true. I actually had to rewind to see if she said “Joestar”. She did. REPLY TO ANGEL: “Jotaro your name isn't even Joestar.” No, but considering his lineage, it might as well be. Clearly she’s a psychic old lady. Oh Polnareff, you flirt. SWEET BABY JEEBUS, THAT’S A NASTY THREAT. Paul-nareff. Fuck yeah, Hol Horse. Dammit man, you and your six-shooter had your chance, let Enyaba have her turn. And on go the crocodile One Piece tears. (Happy accident, BTW.) Not exactly an overreaction, but it feels like one without context. Don’t fuck with an old lady brandishing scissors as a weapon. Definitely don’t fuck with an old lady with a killer fog as her STAND. Polnareff’s about to get his retribution for causing Avdol’s death, just like Hol Horse got not a minute ago for the very same. MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM: IRON-BLOODED ORPHANS Nobody cares, lady narrator. Insert importaste “Kudelia pleases old men for money” joke here. Oh hey, another character whose name I don’t recognize. “What a jerk.” King Jerk, even! It’d be a shame if something terrible happened to that suit. Someone who thinks school is fun? Inconceivable! I’m starting to think Hush has a tsundere guy-crush on Mikazuki. All these people talking about re-heating food that’s still fairly warm sound like my mother. Mars pods are the secret to Mika’s fit physique. You mean that man? Didn’t expect that B-word. This masked man sounds awfully familiar… Thank you, announcer Jamieson Price. That’s one frighteningly photorealistic vase of flowers. OH MY GOD JC A BOMB. Guess that explains how “off” those flowers looked, then. And there’s some photorealistic liquor bottles, are they bombs too? 3 boring days in which nothing has happened. Yes, it’s been well established that Chad’s in a coma, but what about his suit? PROOFREADING ANGEL: “PRAY FOR CHAD.” You know a show’s starting to get boring when you can’t even think up good comments to make on it, but I’m sure it’ll come around eventually. Wait, what’s the SAU? “Now that Chad is no longer with us…” You’re not allowed to say that until he loses more than just his consciousness. Does that sudden noise count as a jump scare? Because I jumped. Seriously, what does SAU even stand for? Sword Art Underground? HUNTER x HUNTER Well, at least Gon’s improving in one field. Damn, they really thought ahead, didn’t they. What a heartbreaking and reasonable exposition for this whole arc. And here’s a case where no comments can be thought up because an episode is that engrossing. Gon, you madman. Apparently my dad thinks I’m watching Naruto in here. KEIKAKU DOORI. Careful, Gon, get beat up enough and he might start licking your tears. FUCK YEAH BISKY. ;D Oh shit she took off her power limiter, shit’s about to get really real. FACE PUNCH. I’m not too big on the voice, but Buff!Bisky looks way more attractive than I would’ve guessed upon hearing the phrase “muscle granny”. Now chuck him in the ocean! KAGE BUNSHIN NO JUTSU. Followed by a Chidori, apparently. And now the yo-yo sees its importance. Oh hey, Milluki’s actually useful for once. That blood stain looks like a soul patch. He blames the Jews for that surprise head shot. And then electrotorture. Genthru, you a busta. LUPIN THE 3RD: THE ITALIAN ADVENTURE “Huh, so that’s what Lupin looks like…” What the hell are you even talking about, Da Vinci? One stubborn samurai, indeed. “Why is it that Pops always blames me for everything?” Insert cutaway gag of Zenigata blaming Lupin for something innocuous like a cold cup of coffee. Between those two, Rebecca’s the cuter one and Fujiko’s the sexier one. Lupin calls it his “Yellow Jacket” look. The real surprise is that Robson was included too. I like seeing Nyx in casual wear; makes him look more personable. Not really surprised that he and Zenigata were hit too. Aw shit, MI-6 was watching them the whole time. Neat, a recreation of the Last Supper. Wait, why’s Zenigata still standing? MI-6 sure seems to love murdering people if they know too much, don’t they. So that explains why he quit. MOLTAR, SERVE THE FIRST COURSE! A giant plate of spaghetti? Make it gluten-free, and sign me the fuck up. DEEP. Too much tomato for me, also. GO TIME. Aw man, he’s already given him a nickname. Wait, where’d Lupin go? Still, this is a great four-part escape scene. Turns out he went to confront Da Vinci himself. Leonardo da Vinci, awayyyyy~! What Da Vinci will make next is a doomsday device to blow up all the bullies on his home planet. That Da Vinci’s one hell of a guy. NARUTO SHIPPUDEN Oh hey, the rain finally let up. Poor Yamato, so useful and yet he’s the only one they’re relying on for that job. Holy crap, is everybody in a coma this week? Hi there, Tazuna and aged-up Inari, nice to see you two again. AND HERE COMES THE FILLER PORTION. Shut the fuck up, Sasuke. FUN FACT: The character 楽 can be pronounced as either “raku” or “gaku”. Tough talk about teamwork, coming from the guy who would abandon his village and is only coming back to lay it to further waste. Is ass pronunciation supposed to be some Japanese-exclusive form of mockery? Oh hey, it’s those two jerks. Take a drink every time Naruto tries to use Sexy Jutsu on Sasuke and it fails spectacularly. Take two whenever Sasuke calls Naruto a loser. You got your coupon, now keep it safe before you go off and fight. Naturally the guy with stitches smack down the middle of his forehead looks like a mental patient when he laughs. And they say Inari’s the crybaby here. What a fitting pair of bumpers, those were. It’s always somewhat nice seeing Naruto and Sasuke put their differences aside to fight a common enemy. Playing the decoy, that kid is surprisingly brave. Oh Eyepatch Guy, you and your obsession with cutting. ABSOLUTELY CRAZY. Yes, the water’s cold, but only at first. “I have to stop… so why can’t I stop!?” GENICHIROU ABE SAKUGA SPOTTED. TIMBERRRRRRRRRR! So much for that coupon. Fuck yeah, who else to build Ichiraku II? It might just be the slightly different animation style, but this was a pretty good filler episode. Fuck yeah, new ending theme. OUTLAW STAR STILL NOT HELPING, GILLIAM. Sometimes the smartest option isn’t the one that works out the best; tell that to Byakuya Kuchiki and the guy who founded Jameson. Fuck yeah, barely made it! Thank you friendly, official dude. Suzuka’s really enjoying her time off. FOOD BREAK. I love that Gene isn’t buying into their lies for a second. Fred is disappointed in the commentators’ bias. Harry, you crazy bastard. Aisha is a cute. A CUTE! Things aren’t going her way today, are they? Ah, asteroids, the icebergs of the sky. Considering his reasons, I can forgive Gene walking into danger just this once. Check it out, an upside-down Tri-Force. Too freaking adorable. :catsmile Meanwhile, bathing Suzuka. “BREAK INTO THE DOCK” sounds like an Engrish rock song. Welcome to Subspace: not nearly as kinky as it sounds. Oh good, they made it. How had I not noticed before that the ship’s cockpit has a freaking hood ornament? Is Aisha giving them a pep talk, because I like it. RIDE THE ETHER, BITCH. “In dumbass stunts, you’re in first place.” He’ll take that as a compliment. FUCK YEAH THIRD PLACE. Ah, screw you, other ship. >( Aisha looks good in that outfit, but I wasn’t expecting Jim to wear it too. Wish I could see how Melfina looked in it… All in all, good ending. (Not great.) COWBOY BEBOP A PG episode of Bebop? Inconceivable! Nice, laser doodles. My god… it’s full of ads. Heh, Bebop’s the only ship on that list being used for vacationing purposes. All this HD information. This Peter Lurie-sounding crackpot cracks me up. I love the banter between these guys. So you could say that they’re… super-hackers? Holy crap I forgot how much fun Ed was. It’s Spike’s day off, don’t wake him up. “Satellite from days of old, lead me to your access code~!” BULLHORN. All these false rumors. I assume they only rated this TV-14 at first because that “drag queen” comment was too risqué in 2001. PEEEEEEEEPS. We artificial intelligence now. LIKE CPU, ONLY NEATER. Francoise ““Radical” Edward Wong Hau Pepelu Tivrusky IV” Appledelhi is the best name. Mmm, chocolate Peeps. Dammit Spike, don’t feed chocolate to your dog! Well, that’s a kinda nice explanation. And so they all meet. Not a whole lot to say during this stretch, I’m afraid. So… did the copy work? That’s pretty harsh, Faye. When all else fails, hack them into agreement. Huh, was Ed’s face always drawn into South America like that? GHOST IN THE SHELL: STAND ALONE COMPLEX 2ND GIG It’s probably just because of all the different costumes and stuff and how those gynoids pull them off, or maybe it’s just my own interests, but I have very little problem with this party. Did anyone else notice that one of the ones on display looked kind of like the Major from the original GITS manga? COMMERCIAL CORNER So that’s where the “mountain bike juice delivery” idea came from! Still, a better subversion of the story would be if she was kicked out of her shoe due to zoning regulations. A home video of Oprah sobbing into a Lean Cuisine, indeed. Now if only these local on-demand ads would actually show up on the on-demand service itself… Holy shit Randy Jackson got thin. DirecTV is the true entity that needs its dick cut off. SURPRISE, MOTHAFUCKA with Snoop Dogg: coming to TBS this April 20th. We don’t even get to hear the Omniking’s voice this week? So the uglier Sonic guy is a college dropout who actually lives at the restaurant? Man, am I glad I’m not that loser. I have no desire t purchase Apple products, but that was a pretty sweet-ass ad. Poor Reincarnation of Stalin, he was just trying to enjoy some Doritos. King looks like he’s about to shank that guy with his spatula. That land-whale sounds awfully familiar. Oh, so Morty was referring to the manipulator chip as “cruel”. Whenever I hear people complaining about how people in real life don’t talk like the people in anime, I think about directing them to this one Cheetos commercial and the father’s “Which one of you… has been eating all… the Cheeto snacks?”, and asking them why they’re complaining about the way people in anime talk and not the much less realistic way that phony enunciates what he says.

Pretty sure that was actually Dorothy Fahn throughout, but I have no way of knowing that.

Man, this thread is deaaaaaaaaad outside of me, Foley and Angel. Tonight on Toonami, TOM finds himself trapped on a different Vindication with a group of hostile Clydes, the Tournament of Power reaches its conclusion in a tense and quite possibly unpredictable fashion, a newly formed and highly impatient Gotenks rushes to face Majin Buu without the proper preparations for such an event, with all her assassins defeated it's up to Enyaba herself to keep the Joestars from making it to DIO, someone set Arbrau up the bomb!, Genthru tries to strike a deal with Gon and the others while Tzesguerra learns the truth behind why he was hired to play Greed Island, all the relevant players in the "Dream of Italy" incident head to Milan to learn what's up with these paintings of them popping up nationwide, this week's flashback filler is a little adventure taking place not long after the Zabuza Saga, Gene winds up having to contend with Aisha as the Heifong Space Race continues, the hacking of a laser satellite over Earth forces the Bebop crew to team up with a mysterious hacker called "Radical Edward", and Section 9 finds themselves pulling double duty as they're tasked with investigating a businessman with ties to Yakushima and protecting his stash from a mysterious female thief. 8:00 - Dragonball Super #39 - The Developed "Time Skip" Counterstrike?!

I don't drop anime, but To Love-Ru was the last one I actually put on hiatus, and Neo Ranga's been coming pretty close to that same line.

Good ol' Goddammit Nappa.

Hey, "buff" was the word you used, so that was the one I catered to. But yes, JoJo's guys are more attractive, and also (for the most part) not taken.

Kuroko's Basketball. Imagine Slam Dunk, only with more shounen and more bishounen.

In all fairness, DBZ has giant buff dudes, just not the ones you want.
