That's pretty much my view of it too. When you introduce the concept of time travel to your series, it's best to imagine it as a bad timeline if things get fucked over.

I saw your post in the ANN thread, that was much better said than everyone parroting "DEWEY WAS RIGHT".

Funny how people pay more attention to the negative parts of AO's ending and less the implication that It's honestly easy to overlook, if you were filled with rage at the "moral" Mochi described, which isn't even a moral in the conventional sense. That's why I saved all my rage for the OVA.

And the episode right after is TV-PGSV. While not as rare (see Kikaider 3, SAO 8, and Soul Eater 14), that one should be interesting too.

Finally, the site's back up! Do you know how frustrating it is to find out that it went down for some bullshit reason just when you're about ready to post something? You don't even know the half of it. Anyways, nice, two in a row. Also, kinda interesting that you talked some about KanColle in the Anime Watching thread. To Love-Ru #2: A Broken Engagement?!

To Love-Ru 2

Well, Mike Lazzo is basically bullshit given human form.

Seriously? The mid-season premiere's tonight, and Luuv didn't even make a thread for it like he does all the other crap? [sigh] Gotta do everything myself around here... So yeah. Tonight, 8PM, be there. [also, fuck lee]

I like to think Nazi Hughes reformed his ways post-Shamballa, or at least was racist only towards the Gypsies and not the Jews. DRAGONBALL SUPER Even in short form, I love this OP for reasons unexplained. “…mankind no longer remembers the destruction caused by Majin Buu.” Neither do us, we haven’t even seen it yet. My uncle actually questioned why King Kai has a car when his planet is so small. The answer I gave was so he could kill time. King Kai, you fool, you don’t explain your jokes! I kind of feel like that was an overreaction. That fried rice looks delicious. REMINDER: This is Sean Schemmel talking to himself. I always did think that outfit looked safari-ish. Bulma with hair above her ears and lipstick isn’t exactly an attractive look for her. Unless it’s the afro. Vegeta gives no fucks. As expected of the Prince of all Saiyans. A spiky fruit and a regular fruit. Sound familiar? Okay, from that angle, it looks pretty good. Yep, I’m now convinced that Zeni are this universe’s Yen. Oh hey, flashbacks to things we haven’t seen yet. Not exactly a spoiler, outside of Princess Trunks going Super Saiyan earlier than his future counterpart. That’s the biggest ice cream I’ve ever seen! And the most ridiculous jack-in-the-box I’ve ever seen. Vegeta demands a bigger caboose. (No, Mochi.) ALL YOU CAN EAT! And then he was Mr. Popo. “Remember your breathing exercises!” Never thought of Vegeta as the kind who hated mosh pits. DANCE-OFF! DANCE-OFF! Okay, you made yourself some space, now breakdance! Or you can do that, it’s impressive enough. Minor flaws, and yet you dock it too points. You savage, TOM. You can’t just not like Beerus. Same can be said for Whis. What the fuck are those teeth. Alright, these four-eyed warrior aliens are kinda cute. NOOOOO THE ALIENS. And that must be their leader. You are the best, Blue Dandy. Last I checked, a century was 100 years, not 60. A galactic pop star, huh? Wow, Beerus is actually pretty awesome. As to be expected of someone capable of destroying a planet with a single tap of the finger. I can sympathize with the whole earwax thing. Welp, so much for that planet… In a way, I guess destroying the dinosaur did help out. ONE TWO THREE FOUR. [guitar riff] Those are some serious weights. TWIN INFINITY SYMBOLS. “There is nothing more beautiful than a shattering planet.” Yes, that explosion does look awfully pretty. Super Saiyan God sounds serious. But is it stronger than Super Saiyan 4? You don’t need to ask him twice during the stone age! TOP BILLING: Go-wait, Gohan? But he wasn’t in this episode! And neither was Videl… And wait, did they just credit Erasa and Sharpner too!? Goddammit, FUNimation, keep track of your cast credits! I feel like that squirting acne cream was supposed to represent ejaculation. DRAGONBALL Z KAI Those slacks still aren’t brown. (On my TV…) Huh, never pictured Bulma as a smoker. FUCK YEAH CAPSULE CORP. Quick reminder that this universe’s Trunks was raised by Vegeta. Yeah, this Kid Trunks is voiced by Laura Bailey, while the Super one is Alexis Tipton. That sliding door noise. “…Since when have we had that aquarium?” Awesome, a communicator wristwatch. Of course Gohan’s taste would fit that of the outfit. For a second there, I thought those palm trees were cracks in the earth or somethin’. I like how late ‘80s this music sounds. Surely the 69 on their car is just a coincidence. : CARTOON PHYSICS, BITCH. You were being rhetorical, now you’re just being transparent. To be fair, he didn’t leave his house with that getup, but yeah, Chi-Chi has no idea. EARTHQUAKE KICK. “Drive safe, now!” Well, he is Goku’s son, even if he isn’t the real father figure in his life. Oh hi, Goku Jr. Well, the abbreviation is definitely SSG… I’m personally surprised at how chill Chi-Chi’s gotten over the past seven years. “Try to watch out for planes.” And the product of a near-endless sex marathon. Sweet, stosses. Still as awkward as ever, eh, Gohan? Of course the bus is filled with seniors. ‘Member that time when Cell smacked Mr. Satan into a giant rock? POSING: ALWAYS A GOOD IDEA. LET THOSE SENIORS ALONE. Heh, the seniors are more comfortable with this situation than I’d have expected. Sweet, a Satan-copter. I assume that thing’s on auto-pilot now. FUCK YEAH VIDEL. Watch out for that clif-whoops, too late. -_’ Thanks for the help, Great Saiyaman. Could’ve posed that better… TOP BILLING: Gohan. Now that’s more like it. And so this classic Hot Pockets commercial returned, and the Tumblr community collectively orgasmed at the DING. JOJO’S BIZARRE ADVENTURE SCREENCAP #1: The road to Mexico is lined with cacti. Even with a knife in the arm, Joseph can’t help but view this guy as more than a nuisance. I feel like that OP cut should’ve gone on a little longer. The transition was perfect, but the ending was abrupt. Eh, at least it sounds decent now. That brings up a good question, how do Germans smell? Cactus needles? Well, that smarts. God, Joseph’s creativity is hilariously amazing. Next you’ll say, “I promise to tell Joseph Joestar everything!” I’m a sucker for faces transposed against the sky. Sucks to be you, Donovan. Random gargling. Even after 50 years, Speedwagon is still afraid. If Speedwagon was a coward, he wouldn’t have stuck around to provide commentary on the Phantom Blood arc’s more action-focused sequences. It’s leaking blood! SUCCESS! FUN FACT: Sanviento’s name in the original Japanese was Santana, but it had to be changed because apparently musicians can copyright even someone’s surname. Slip and fall. Nazis have weird senses of humor. MORE LIKE ZE ULTIMATE EEDIOT. He’s 2000 years old, of course he’d be primitive. What the fuck is that face, but whatever it is, that ain’t no mask. “Get in there…” “Now look! He’s… He’s posing!” Shows how soundproof your chamber is. I wouldn’t call a hawk swiping a fish “not peaceful. SCREENCAP #2: Joseph spying on the conspicuously constructed Nazi base. Oh god, creepy molester Nazi guards. Ironically, this aired in Japan one week after the SAO episode where this happened. I love how the old lady looks excited about being inspected. > > Holy shit Joseph you are the best drag queen. Because nothing is funnier than getting hit on the head with a coconut. And now the coffee is ruined. The chamber is impenetrable, and yet he still managed to escape without penetrating it. Watch him swooce right in there. Goddammit man he told you to get the fuck away from there! And then he got fat, like the one in that video with all the monkey kids. Eughhh… Check it out, it’s the cover image for this show’s Nightmare Fuel page. FINGER BANG! Fuck yeah soldier Joseph. Barrier Art? More like Hair-rier Art! You see that star on his shoulder? That’s the Joestar family birthmark. That’ll be important later. “Has the world gone completely bold?” If they did, there’d be a lot more nuclear explosions. MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM UNICORN RE:0096 This opening narration really puts things in a slightly tighter perspective, doesn’t it? Space subways, fuck yeah. Huh, never expected his classmates to be on the same train. With all the stuff going on in this show, it’s hard to make quips while paying attention. Lettuce on a hot dog; supremely underrated. She’s in love with the wiener. (Yes, I said it that way on purpose.) Uh-oh, they’ve got company. Told you there’d be a character in this franchise called Full Frontal. STRANGER DANGER! STRANGER DANGER! Holy shit Banagher’s more of a badass than I expected. Damn she’s a fast runner. Personally I’m surprised Banagher managed to successfully fend her off. Haro is the greatest. Audrey Burns? Like C. Montgomery? So where are these kids again? “Banagher, you scoundrel! I was supposed to be your first!” Wow, way to dub dialogue over a scene with no lip flaps. Paper-thin video tablets. Truly the future is amazing. If this space mansion is privately owned, why would the door be unlocked? Still, that’s one fancy foyer. It’s like going on a tour of the governor’s mansion. Banagher recognizes that unicorn painting! Clearly Banagher doesn’t give a fuck about what this dude thinks. REPLY TO ANGEL 1: “Calm down there, Renton.” Technically he’s voiced by Moondoggie, but whatever. For any of you who’re asking questions, Newtypes are humans raised in space who developed psychic powers as a result of their surroundings. In the SEED-verse, they call them Coordinators. Not to be confused with Newhalves. Oh fuck you Audrey you’re just as heartless as your ancestor. That poodle deserves to die in the most gruesome manner possible. #poptartequality The second coming of Char, you say… Sweet-ass music… denied. Poor dude, whoever he is. The poison carrot? Like the poison donut? Still love those retractable airbags. Oh yeah, and there’s also this whole exposition about Newtypes being the true humans or some crap. Did she just feel him die? Those mobile suits just turned into tanks. So awesome. Meanwhile, Banagher got over being kicked out of the governor’s mansion offscreen. Kill ‘em All Tomino is at it again! Well that escalated… not exactly quickly, but still pretty fast. Was this originally a DVD featurette, because I doubt they’d go to this effort just for an [as] promo. HUNTER x HUNTER Guess we’re done with the Nen exposition, then. I love you, assassin edgelord Killua. No homo. One of my favorite things about cityscapes: shopping districts with roofs covering the streets. Welp, Killua sure scared him shitless. Killua’s the kind who kills people at their dinner tables, in their beds, and over their chamber pots. SADASO, YOU AIN’T SHIT! And now for a Nen montage. Oh hey, he put a tapestry up over that hole he put in the wall. He’s gonna use that? Ah yes, the dreaded Fishing Rod style. Shotgun Blues sounds like it was named after some sort of song. Getting ahead in the battle requires not just physical skill, but the ability to mindfuck your opponent. “His attacked missed his target!” Or did it? Holy shit Gon you are fucking amazing. And people seriously hate this show… GON PUNCH! These kids are savage and that’s what makes them so lovable. You know that noise you’re not hearing? That’s Hisoka’s boner. Ohhh, different subtitles… Wait, I thought Gon vs. Gido Round 2 was the main event! Ah, whatever, let’s see what Mr. Monster Wheelchair has in his own arsenal of Nen. Even if this arena is your turf, you don’t fuck with the Zoldyck family. Never mind, make that Mr. Rocket Wheelchair. Besides that, he’s capable of something most dominatrices only wish they could do: control two whips at once. Killua doing things Samurai Jack style by grabbing the whips with his bare hands. ELECTRO WHIPS. Gon seems to be enjoying this more than he should. But that’s because Killua obviously had this victory in the bag. “Just because I’m not feeling any pain from this, it doesn’t mean I’m a masochist.” Poor Rocket Wheelchair man. Those two fights were very much awesome. But really, who cares about Gon vs. Riehlvelt? Especially when Gon vs. Hisoka is obviously being telegraphed to is. Oh so we’re gonna watch this anyway. Considering that the episode’s almost over, it shouldn’t take any time at all. FUCK YEAH MONSTER STRENGTH. Hisoka knows what’s up. Now break his wrists! Or electroshock him, that works too. Gon, you are awesome. [slow clap] Hisoka manages to be both awesome and creepy at the same time, and I don’t know how Keith Silverstein does it. NARUTO SHIPPUDEN As angsty as this might be, all this Uchiha backstory is very interesting. Of course, at the age Sasuke was when the massacre happened, he’d have no reason to be let in on the coup plot. War is hell, and it’s just as much of a cuss word too. Man, the village sure was anti-Uchiha, weren’t they? “Of course, he did not hate the Uchiha. He just hated their attitudes.” The Third Hokage was a good man. He will be forever missed. Sasuke’s in just as much denial as the rest of us who think this doesn’t make sense. Clearly Itachi went in deep with his cover. I get all that, but what were his last words? “MADARA IS A LOSER” sounds like something out of a 4Kids dub. Like I said, he went in deep. Ah, so that’s why he dropped by the village then of all times. And then, realization. Itachi had a lover? Explain, show. REPLY TO ANGEL 2: “Was his lover just a dozen anonymous dicks at once.” I doubt it was a gloryhole, but that sounds hilarious. Must’ve been some illness, if it turned out to be fatal. I’m confused, is his dog called “Dog”, or is he called “Doug”? Whenever I see a TV set in Naruto, I’m always surprised. Not sure why, though. Goddamn, young Sasuke’s voice is even worse than his normal voice. Yeah, that sounds like me all right. Viewing homework as easy enough to finish later. The clone jutsu’s a bitch, isn’t it? “Ow, my face!” And now for the last wor-goddammit, cockblocked by the mute button again. Oh, nevermind then. I can see how surprising that sincere final moment must’ve been for him. FILLING IN THE BLANKS: I assume while Sasuke was reflecting on all that, Madara told the rest of the Hebi where to find him. Their new name is the Taka, short for Takahata101. That’s one freaky-looking Sharingan evolution. Almost like flowers. Whoever poured the syrup on those flapjacks needs 1000 swift kicks in the dick and a lesson on how to do that shit properly. ONE PIECE TOP BILLING: Usopp. I feel a panicked rant coming… “So why!?” The why is that gravity is taking its damn sweet time. If he had puked downward instead of upward, we wouldn’t even be in this mess. You’d think they’d try to run after being caught up in the sun, but nooooooooo. I’m gonna play the role of Mr. Satan and claim that these obscured disintegration effects are all a parlor trick. Why else would Robin’s left hand be hovering in midair when it’s already been burned off of the rest of her body? Now those guys know how to hide. “Aboard a certain pirate ship in the Grand Line” Not the subtitle font I was expecting… Also, does that Jolly Roger remind anyone else of Usopp? Well good for those guys. “Like that’s bloody likely.” Sorry, dude, “bloody” doesn’t work unless you have a British accent. Or Australian, that works too. So there are pirate emperors too. I assume that was the Marine swordsman, or some other unlucky one. That guy looks ready to have a fiesta. Just keep in mind that there are some shadows that won’t be going back to their owners. Because they’re long dead. Oh, that must be the chick whose shadow went to Cindry. She’s definitely a cute one. How romantic. And things are finally right again. Like I said, Usopp, it was all a parlor trick, smoke and mirrors and whatnot. Have you not seen the Cell Games? PARTY TIME! And just like the Cell Games, there’s a perfectly logical (if you’re not Foley) explanation for the supernatural B.S. behind the special effects excuse. But to hell with calling shenanigans, they’re safe and that’s all that matters. In the end, the true horror shows on Thriller Bark were Moria McGee and his Mysterious Three. I had a feeling they’d wake up soon. Right on the nose there, Hogback. [nose joke] And then they decided to get real jobs. Eh, I doubt Moria was any stronger than Lucci was. Oh yeah, this is the first time Usopp’s seen that old man. They were on the same island for who knows how many years, of course they’d know each other. “What we have is yours for the taking.” But do we have to find it first? SUCK IT ZORO. Usopp finds this awfully predictable. Oh yeah, Kuma’s still around. Yes, that’s what she just said. I wonder what’s hiding inside that huge-ass bible. Man, fuck the World Government. You say you’re all done for, but Zoro isn’t. I miss Perona. Her laugh, not so much. Brook is too scared to try and lighten the mood. The gloves are coming off, that means shit’s ‘bout to get real. That is some fitting and also intimidating music. I love it. “Intimidated by me now?” [good]

Whenever it comes, it won't be soon enough for the #1 SJ fan on the ASMB. [don't tell her of this place]

Samurai Jack is objectively a kids show, but it's the kind of kids show that doesn't actively alienate a potential adult audience, and even encourages it.

You say that like enjoying Puri Puri Prisoner for the facets of his character beyond the "gay prison rapist" shtick is a bad thing. I, for one, very much enjoy the Angel Dash, whose only negative attribute is his being naked while performing it.

From the context of the scene - a ceremony celebrating the official change from the Anno Domini way of counting the years to the Universal Century system - and the fact that Unicorn takes place in 0096 U.C., I'd say distant past on that one. Yes, it confused me too, and the flash-forward cold opening scene of Banagher getting in the Gundam didn't really help matters. Taking Straitzo's final words, warning him of the dangers of the mysterious Pillar Man, to heart, Joseph has set off for the Mexican border in the hopes of finding answers about Speedwagon's fate. But as important as his safety is, Speedwagon's own worries lie with the Pillar Man, and what Major Rudol Von Stroheim and his team of Nazi scientists plan to do with him. Whatever the case, things are about to get particularly nasty in Mexico, and in more ways than one. While I leave you to figure that out, Goku goes to King Kai's to train while Vegeta goes on his first family vacation, Gohan develops his own superhero persona in order to crime-fight without being caught, Banagher accompanies the girl he randomly saved to stop what might be the beginning of another One Year War, with one of the three Floor 200 rookie-crushers down Gon and Killua prepare to take care of the other two, Madara finishes up his Uchiha angst exposition by explaining Itachi's true motives, will the shadows Moria puked up make their way back to their owners before they burn to a crisp in broad daylight?, and Saitama crashes a meeting of Class S heroes in what many would later consider a very good call. 8:00 - Dragonball Super #2 - To the Promised Resort!

Alright, now it's back to nor- Dammit, DxD, quit trying to make me rewatch you before I'm comfortable with it!

You know, now that you mention that, A-1 really fucked up by missing out on that opportunity. Anime fans: more creative than the people that make what they watch.

March Comes In Like a Lion #10 - Something Given

And those who want to do to anime what MST3K did to low-grade movies and riff the everloving shit out of it.

March Comes In Like a Lion 10

Toonami exists for fans of the block, those who can only afford monthly cable, and other individuals who exist right under your nose.

Dammit, I was hoping you wouldn't say anything...

I dunno, I'm here whenever I'm not elsewhere.
