MasqueradeOverture

Interestingly enough, this is the first lineup they've had where I dig almost every show they have on (sans Shippuden). Unicorn's probably my favorite on the block, which from the look of things happens to be a minority opinion as Americans historically have never really latched on to Universal Century titles (common complaints that they're played too straight / political / etc.). It's been doing better in the ratings the past couple weeks though, so idk.

"...aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand it's gone." "What!?" "One Piece. It didn't do so well. It's gone."

You've been saying this since May 26th, 2012.

Goddammit yo. I'll add an extra bet that we don't see the "Hold hand out and start over" line until page 30.

Any wagers on when the death threats begin?

Not surprised nor in mourning. I dropped OP on Toonami as the weekly pacing was getting impossible to tolerate. Tokyo Ghoul though? Come the fuck on, that ship sailed.

Shut up. The only good thing the Ocean dub did were the first 3 movies (the uncut Pioneer ones, not the edited Saban versions).

The worst case was in the first Budokai game where they straight-up lifted a Stratovarius track:

This is fucking incredible.

But fuck it:

I must too agree that Logan is fucking incredible.

That is unfortunate.

I'm not buying a defective console just for one game.

Considering they have / had the potential to become the strongest fighters in the universe at that point, why not? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lR0vNsXqyto

Not to burst your bubble, but this only took 1.5 episodes in the original. Was sorely missing the track that played over Goten and Trunks fighting tho:

2/27/17's program now up on Soundcloud. This week: New (sort of) Zeal & Ardor and Joseph A. Peragine, plus I surf WebMD for the cause of my mild flank pain, get fed up with the system, and beg listeners to roast me. [soundcloud] [/soundcloud]

Do you like Phil Collins? I've been a big Genesis fan ever since the release of their 1980 album, Duke. Before that, I really didn't understand any of their work. Too artsy, too intellectual. It was on Duke where Phil Collins' presence became more apparent. I think Invisible Touch was the group's undisputed masterpiece. It's an epic meditation on intangibility. At the same time, it deepens and enriches the meaning of the preceding three albums... ...Christy, take off your robe. Listen to the brilliant ensemble playing of Banks, Collins and Rutherford. You can practically hear every nuance of every instrument. Sabrina, remove your dress... In terms of lyrical craftsmanship, the sheer songwriting, this album hits a new peak of professionalism. Sabrina, why don't you, uh, dance a little. Take the lyrics to Land of Confusion. In this song, Phil Collins addresses the problems of abusive political authority. In Too Deep is the most moving pop song of the 1980s, about monogamy and commitment. The song is extremely uplifting. Their lyrics are as positive and affirmative as anything I've heard in rock. Christy, get down on your knees so Sabrina can see your asshole. Phil Collins' solo career seems to be more commercial and therefore more satisfying, in a narrower way. Especially songs like In the Air Tonight and Against All Odds. Sabrina, don't just stare at it, eat it. But I also think Phil Collins works best within the confines of the group, than as a solo artist, and I stress the word artist. This is Sussudio, a great, great song, a personal favorite.

Plays hideous tricks on the brain.

What Vice City does have however was the best goddamn soundtrack to any video game. I'm torn. I really liked IV since it feels so at home (live in the NYC area), but I found V to be a better experience [Note: talking base games alone. If we're adding Lost And The Damned and Ballad Of Gay Tony to the mix IV is the clear winner]. San Andreas is GOAT though.

Oh fuck, I actually never noticed that.

2/20/17's program now up on Soundcloud. This week: New Pain Of Salvation and Mastodon, plus I get cranky over protesters blocking traffic and meditate by watching tsunami and flood footage. [soundcloud] [/soundcloud]

Nice uptick. One Piece shits the bed though.

The one episode with Shikamaru mourning had zero business being in Shippuden.

With Shippuden, it's very easy to tell that the producers give zero fucks about their product (and that's all it is...a product). Toei looks to at least somewhat give a shit with One Piece.
