MasqueradeOverture

12/5's program now on Soundcloud. This week: An Animals As Leaders concert review, plus my body fails me in every way possible.

ABOUT IT.

It was not.

We can't get a 666 Satan anime produced by Madhouse... ...but Boruto happens to be a thing.

To make a shitty property even shittier. This has to be awful.

.

The Life Of Pablo was the first Kanye record (not including his G..D. music side projects) that I flat out hated.

Other World Tournament and most of Great Saiyaman is filler, yes. Sad part is I really like those filler eps. I don't think this is the first episode (at least I hope it isn't).

WEEKLY FAULCONER REMINDER: For the ultimate Kai experience, click here: mega.co.nz/#F!9d4jkYzR!CPlPL10_HQw3y6mAWBVxnQ Under Part 8 Beta, there's a folder labeled F which has all the Faulconer mixes for those episodes (episodes 89 - 98). Choose "Kai98F.ac3." If you have VLC player, it should play upon clicking. This is the final episode in which a Faulconer mix for Kai exists. Come Buu Saga, I can't help you (you might be better off watching the original DBZ from there imo).

HBO managed to make a series even more nihilistic than True Detective season 1. Bravo.

^ The music for Kai Buu is by the same composer who does Super's / Battle Of Gods' / Resurrection F's music.

New Buu Saga clip out: Oddly enough, dub sounds a little more stilted than the original (weird considering the rest of Kai was a massive improvement upon the original, but at the same time the voice actors more or less came to their own by this time in the original DBZ). Also, the picture is ASS. The Funimation Blu-rays of DBZ are infamous for looking like shit, but they still look better than whatever the hell hackjob of a remaster this is. This just looks like an HD version of the Orange Bricks.

Why must you do this to yourself? I hope they split this year's into separate parts, because there's no way I'm listening to anything that's 4 hours. Except for this, because it's hilarious:

WHY MUST YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THIS MOVIE'S EXISTENCE?!?!?!?!?!

^ You'd be surprised. Example: My sister refuses to watch Mr. Robot because the shot-composition bugs her.

^ DBZ doesn't count because it's fucking DBZ.

Why is this so? Is the art style too old / off-putting? Are people rejecting the pointiness / muscular nature of its aesthetic? Do people want shit that looks like SAO and AGK? I'm starting to believe it's more of a visual problem. Doesn't matter if there's cel dirt or not; if it looks too old or is too inspired by an older art style...is that a detraction? Could Gundam Unicorn suffer as well if this is the case?

I don't.

So...Yuppie?

He's too busy cleaning his dick cheese.
