Trunks Thread 19.1: A New New Frontier
EmpressAngel replied to PokeNirvash's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
Will I ever get around to actually watching Blade Runner? Probably not. Blade Runner- I wonder how confusing this is gonna be for us poor schmucks who've never seen the original movie. Waking up in the back of a mysterious truck is probably never a good thing. Good evening, random future stripper. Shit who turned off the subtitles. You're about to get attacked by those shady dudes. I don't like where this is going. Neat, you're a secret ninja. Alright she's definitely one of them robot thingies. Gentrification strikes again! Even the cat is fake. This guy's got nuts of steel. Try smacking it on the table until it breaks. Brb gonna go kill some dudes. Good luck girl. She sure graduated to murder machine real fucking quick. Okay, it's a relief that we were in the mysterious truck on purpose. You owe her the shitty fake cat. This is probably not going to end well. Is this one of them blade runner fellas? Yeah yeah we get it, depressed drunk dude who's all deep and shit. I still say you should try smacking it on a table. Never trust the politicians. I like this lady she seems cool. I can't wait to watch this guy get murdered. There she go. It's nice to know that boxing is completely unchanged in the future. Knock knock it's murder time. Robots have feelings too, douche. Was...was that supposed to be a surprise? Okay the boxers also being robots is midly surprising. So what's the purpose of making ridiculously human robots that are indistinguishable from regular people and have real emotions? Is it just for rich assholes to fuck and murder them with no consequences? You can just not investigate this one. Who are these guys? I immediately want to shove this nerd in a locker and steal his lunch money. No seriously, why would you give your robots the ability to eperience trauma and develop PTSD? What possible purpose could that serve? Guess that guy is a blade runner. Yashahime- I fucking hate Riku and I cannot remember a single thing he's actually done. Don't mess up his transmutation circle. This seems stupid. I suppose it would be too much to ask for this dude to just get off his ass and deal with the girls himself. Kirara deserves a better show. Nobody gives a shit about the goddamn butterfly! I wish we got to hear Crispin in an actual good show. I hate you, discount Shippo. Just let Kikyo stay dead don't bring her back again! Oh yeah, this dipshit's trusty pirates sure seem trustworthy. Of course they're connected because fuck you, viewers. Gee he doesn't sound shady at all. Oh this sounds like it's gonna be stupid. "How long do I have to keep this up?" is the exact question I ask every fucking week watching this show. Moroha gets kicked through a wall and with her goes any chance this episode had of being tolerable. Yeah sure this is totally not a trap or anything. Save Moroha at all costs, the others can fuck off. Wow what a shock it's a trap. Towa, still the fucking worst. Oh my god Towa you dumb motherfucker. This has to be an illusion, Towa's too stupid to figure this out on her own. Forget that guy just find Moroha you useless shits. Food Wars- It's sad when Food Wars isn't the show I hate the most here. I hate all of you. You two fuckin' or what? That sounds disgusting. I'd just like one meal where nobody's orgasming all over the table. I'm also surrounded in a solid coating of salt. Because Erina's creepy dad wasn't fucking creepy enough already. I'm so tired, show. Where is Soma's hot dad? I feel like you dumb bastards could have settled on this strategy earlier so you'd have time to actually make it. That is a Luffy-approved meal. You jackass. You had me at bacon. Keep your oozing meat away from me. Oh great, creepy dad has a boner. Fuck you, Soma. -
Final thoughts and opinions on MHA Season 5?

Final thoughts and opinions on MHA Season 5?

Any arc involving happy Eri is good and I will die on this hill. Come fight me. -
The entire concept of live action One Piece still seems bizarre and unnatural to me, but I do appreciate the effort they're putting into it. Oda listed out what countries the Straw Hats would be from in the real world, and it seems like Netflix definitely took that into account with casting. I'm sure there'll be plenty of bitching from internet dudebros whining about the show being too woke and diversity is ruining the adaptation they hated from the moment it was announced, but I respect that Netflix tried. For the record, here's the nationalities for the entire crew: Luffy: Brazil Zoro: Japan Nami: Sweden Usopp: Africa (Not sure if he meant South Africa or if Oda just doesn't know what a continent is) Sanji: France Chopper: Canada Robin: Russia Franky: USA! USA! USA! Brook: Austria

Final thoughts and opinions on MHA Season 5?
EmpressAngel replied to CountFrylock's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
Hope everybody loved that beach filler episode, because they had to cut canon scenes from Villain Academia to make room for it! Nobody actually wanted to watch the anti-mutant KKK expy get their shit kicked and their hideout stolen, right? I'd put it as my least favorite of the seasons. It's fine on its own, but from an adaptation perspective it fell pretty short of expectations. I'm always going to believe that swapping the arcs was a bad decision, especially since they obviously didn't put in the effort to smooth out the wrinkles caused by that change. The two main theories for why it happened, that they wanted the anime to match up with the movie's release or that they wanted a big final moment to end on, really don't make sense to me. The other movies weren't set anywhere near where the show was at the time, and season 3 ended with Mirio wrecking the class in a zero-stakes casual sparring match. Like, can you imagine if they'd leapfrogged over Bakugo's rescue and All Might's final fight, skipped straight to the license exam with basically no explanation, and then jumped to cover what they missed as one long flashback? Add in the completely unnecessary beach filler episode that barely ties into the movie it's supposed to promote, and that they went full One Piece and adapted one single chapter in an episode padded with extra flashbacks for no discernible reason, and it honestly almost feels like somebody on the writing staff just really didn't like MVA and stalled for as much time as possible. Like, they had to plan out the season in advance and knew how many episodes they had to work with. Someone chose to add that filler episode, even though it would mean taking screentime away from actual canon content. I don't think there's any way to justify that decision. 6.5/10, I guess. It's not terrible, god knows we don't have another Promised Neverland on our hands, but it could have been a lot better. -
Trunks Thread 19.1: A New New Frontier
EmpressAngel replied to PokeNirvash's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
Instead of the Fena marathon I watched the Bebop movie and that was the better choice. Hero- It turns out three weeks isn't long enough to forget how fucked up this backstory is. Somebody just get that kid some oven mitts and take him to the cops. I need a different adult! Okay these random jackass thugs kinda deserved it. Oh yeah, pick on the weird kid walking around wearing a bunch of disembodied hands. Man, little bastard really never had a chance of being normal. Uhh who's that extra hand from? Oh shit, he has a name. Ohhhh this can't be good. Oh FUCK he doesn't sound like a raspy chain-smoking old man anymore, we're screwed. I don't like your odds here, Big Nose. I goddamn love Twice. Show me your dick, you weirdly attractive sack of burned ham. Johnny is a good boy. Well that's goddamn terrifying. Whelp, hope you didn't need those legs. Looks like somebody fucked around and found out. Ohhh this seems like a real bad idea. At least I can respect his desire to mooch off them for free food. Quick, invent a cover story! Compress, once again doing jack shit. Twice is a good boy. Aaaand he's still crazy. I'm glad Toga got a new coat. That's an even stupider name than League of Villains. The anime left out the fact that ice boy is actually ridiculously pretty. Whelp, it was nice knowing everyone. Hawks is suffering. I'm sure Jeanist is fine. I am absolutely gonna get Hawks killed. Well that sounds ominous. Oh, Mothgaraki is fucking cursed. I do not like the sound of that. Meanwhile robots. Oh hey, Invisible Girl can do things now. RIP robots. Awww, Mina. Just in case you forgot who everyone was. I love that one of the country's top heroes is a sentient washing machine. Momo's hero doesn't even get a rank. I love you, Garbage Dilf. AWWWW ALL MIGHT. Deku's basically Spiderman now. Kiss each other already. Mic and Aizawa both need a hug. Mic isn't fucking around. Himbo sighting! Oh no, my baby. Ooooh her quirk is doing something. Oh sweet, lore. Tell Lariat to call me. I love my kids. FLYING MILF. FLYING MILF. FLYING MILF. FLYING MILF. Not now, Bakugo! You've shamed your sister. Enjoy the happiness while you can, kids. Oh shit he's gonna train Eri. Awwwww, my boyfriends. Ohhhhhhhhhh shit's about to go down. Okay that little boy is just Mob. Yashahime- Oh fuck me what now. I'm slightly surprised that she knows her left from right now. Who's this bitch and why did Koga just drop her off with her? That sounds like terrible advice, put on the lipstick. Moroha, still zero competition for best girl. Well, that was easy. Oh what the hell. Wow, what a bitch. This is bullshit! Punch her in the tits! Whelp, sucks to be her. Wait has she been wearing Inuyasha's rat robe this entire time? I'm not emotionally invested in this gang of giant rats, show. Yeah I'm sure she's gonna betray her student to save her own ass, that's totally how it's gonna go. It's okay honey you tried your best. Oh no, you idiots stay the hell out of this. You could just walk away and wait like a month for that armor to kill her. Fucking birds! WEASEL MAN seems like a trustworthy character. Uhhh y'all see the evil guy standing right there in plain sight, right? What a surprise, this plan went awry. At least if you die you don't have to be in Yashahime anymore. Food Wars- I have no memory of what's happening. Oh right, superfluous tits are here. I don't give a fraction of a shit about this guy's backstory, show. It's fine, he's used to being naked. Is Soma's hot dad gonna show up at all in this? Yes please end this shit faster. Diiiiick. I hope all four of them die of violent food poisoning. I don't care, Rindo. We're in this mess because all of you sucked and failed. I hate all of you. I'm pretty sure they're just yelling RABBLE RABBLE at each other and that's actually kinda funny. Y'all fuckin or what? He seems unbearable to work with. And then this douchebag showed up. Can't relate, I love being praised by people. I need an adult. Wow people like good food, what a fucking shock. Was he just hanging out with this weird old dude for months and never bothered asking his name? This is stupid. -

Fun story, in the manga his speech bubbles go from looking rough and jaggy to being normal and smooth after his flashback, so his voice was always meant to do the change there.

My guess if that they're really trying to stretch the budget as much as possible for the big series. Demon Slayer's definitely a big ticket purchase, and I wouldn't be surprised if the pricetag went way up considering the movie made approximately all the weeb money in the world. I assume they'll want to make a solid offer whenever the new Bleach season comes out too, and that's probably worth saving up for now ahead of time. Plus we've still got Uzumaki and at least one other show announced for next year, so someone at the network clearly has every intention of keeping Toonami running through 2022.

Sweet. I've heard good things about this series but I've been way too lazy to read it myself.

Trunks Thread 19.1: A New New Frontier
EmpressAngel replied to PokeNirvash's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
Fena- I feel cautiously optimistic for Shitan's survival odds because the show's kinda forgotten about him. Somebody explain what the hell that kid is. Does the bus run through here? Oh right, I guess she didn't know about the whole family history. Surely this will end well. I feel like this isn't actually a hard choice and the obvious answer here is just to not cause the apocalypse. Is it time for the Ghost of Christmas Future already? This doesn't count as me getting a boyfriend killed. Ohhh, that's why Noah's Arc randomly showed up. I'll be honest, I'm selfish and would absolutely choose the future where I'm happy. This job sucks! You'll lose all your memories but at least you'll get laid. Can we at least sacrifice those twins? Meanwhile, shit's going down. Ohhh don't say that you don't plan on dying, that's just tempting fate. It's never a good omen when someone starts glowing. Where's the dog? Awww. Well this sucks. He's never gonna get laid. Oh hey, her hair changed. At least they still get to stay together. Oh hey, the lady pirates aren't dead. Her whore friend is here! Y'all fuckin yet? Awwww. My douche boyfriend didn't die and that's the important part. Batman- I refuse to fear a villain that puts something from a Party City clearance rack at his murder scenes. Oh man I bet Alfred gives out the best candy. I always forget Gordon has another kid that's not Batgirl. Awwww look at the tinieset Batgirl. Oh things never go well for Two Face's girlfriend. The idea of using a baby bottle top as a silencer is a really weird choice. Oh hey, that's the guy from the beginning. This nerd is shady as hell. I'm always gay for Catwoman. Just fuck already. Man, Nolan took a lot from this comic didn't he. Torch it! HE'S TWO FACE, YA GET IT? I was genuinely expecting his girlfriend to get killed off already. Well clearly things were just going too well for him. Don't fuck with Batman's friends, guys. Good news your wife is here. SOLOMON GRUNDY WANT PANTS TOO. Oh that's some ominous flowers. Just let Gordon have his turkey. Real nice family there. Huh, his face isn't fucked up yet. You should really probably not give him that gun. Awww, they left SOLOMON GRUNDY a plate. Calendar Man is a real shitty villain theme. Aw hell of course it's the Joker it's always the fucking Joker. I know that killing Joker is against the rules and all but like, you could just cut his hands off and make him way less effective. Troy Baker's really having fun here. I love sassy Alfred. Helloooooooo Catwoman. Ohhhh his nerd son is definitely going to kill him now. Gilda needs a hug. Soooo Catwoman's single now, huh? This Joker is a delight. Goddammit Catwoman how did you fuck that up! Well that sure was a red herring. Is the comic also weirdly fixated on the having children thing or is that just added for the movie? OH SHIT IT'S IVY. God I'm gay for Ivy. Baby you don't even need the magic brainwash plants for me. Batman's too busy getting sex pollen'd by the plant witch, which is exactly the excuse I wish I could use to get out of work. CATFIGHT, GO! This is an extreme thirst. Oh shit she even brainwashed Alfred. I got a bad feeling about Gilda. Oh hey, Scarecrow. Aw hell he just got done being drugged up to hell by a villain! Obligatory dead parents flashback time. They really should just stop putting all the dangerous criminals in Arkham. That's one big lady. Ohhhh don't bring his dad into this. I'm rooting for this mobster lady. Whelp, so much for that guy. Poor bastard never got to eat his Father's Day cannoli. Oh these people are tripping balls. This could be going better. Man Catwoman's pulling a lot of weight in these movies. I could stand about five minutes with the Mad Hatter before I'd snap and beat him to death with my own shoes. This could definitely be going better. Dent's having a real rough day. Whelp, it's Two Face time. How did this hospital manage to let him sneak out a window twice in one year? Oh this is not gonna end well. I hope that big lady has a long and successful career in the crime industry. There's nothing better for your open face wounds than hanging out in a filthy sewer. Calendar Man sounds like an evil Bob Ross. Man you really should not have given him that gun. I like that Batman was wearing a police helmet over his regular mask. Who the hell is that? Bruce is also having a rough day. Wow what a surprise there's a mass breakout at Arkham again. Oh yeah shoot at Batman that'll really go ewll for you. Oh fuck no wonder she wouldn't kiss his creep nerd son. Hiiiii Ivy. Nooooo she was the one person in this family that deserved a good life! I'm rooting for Ivy in this and fuck everyone else. I'm moving this Joker. Ivy please use your magic plants on me next. Go ahead adn shoot him, see if I care. Yay, mob lady's alive. Watching Catwoman beat a man in the face with his own gun is a real treat. Nooooo not the cool crime lady! And nothing of value was lost. I think Harvey broke. Can we just take a second to appreciate how hilarious the nickname "Jimbo" is for a grown man. Oh hey, that plot thread resolved itself. OH THEY FUCKIN. Awwwww, Alfred finally gets his trick-or-treater. Hi, characters I don't care about. -
Calm your tits. I hate to drag out the ol' Dragonball Evolution dead horse, but if that couldn't "taint its series' legacy" then nothing Netflix Bebop can do could ruin original Bebop's. Seriously, where do y'all keep coming up with these weirdly specific hypothetical viewers to be so concerned about? So the person in your example is someone who's heard that Cowboy Bebop is a great anime, goes to look for it, finds a live action series circa 2021 that's openly going to say "INSPIRED BY COWBOY BEBOP CARTOON" in the credits, assume this live action one is what they've been recommended, watch enough of the series to be soured on the entire franchise, totally skip over the original series that's inevitably going to be recommended right next to the damn thing, and never bother checking out the anime? Or maybe, just maybe, the recommendation they'll get is "Cowboy Bebop is an amazing anime. Don't bother with the live action remake, though" and just watch the anime, which is easy to tell from the live action series by obviously being a goddamn cartoon?

And then anyone over the age of five would just spend two minutes googling "Toonami cancelled 2021?" or going to any of the various social media outlets (Twitter, Facebook, Reddit, etc) to ask. Who are these theoretical viewers that we need to be concerned about who somehow can't figure out how to operate the internet?
-
I feel like the venn diagram of shows Toonami wants vs shows that Disney wants probably doesn't have a huge overlap. Knowing Disney, I imagine that they'll prefer to go the SW Visions and Twisted Wonderland route for the majority of their anime and just have something created that they own outright, so most of their potential shows would probably never be an option for any other platform.

Trunks Thread 19.1: A New New Frontier
EmpressAngel replied to PokeNirvash's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
I shouldn't be up this late. Fena- Oooh it's pretty up there. The what now? That one dude's gone crazy. And now they notice the main characters are gone. I sure hope that fancy sword can kill off a couple hundred marines on its own. RIP fat dude I don't remember at all. Whelp, navy douche is possessed. Oh, is it finally time for me to get this boyfriend killed? You could at least have the archer shoot at them from a distance instead of right in front of them. BOMB. Yes he's been an asshole for half the series but man, Shitan is pretty. Your sister's not gonna fuck you, just leave them alone. Okay what the hell is up with the navy kid. Aw hell here we go. Aim for the dick! Or his arm, that works too. This is what like the fourth time Yukimaru's been impaled by something? Oh this is not gonna end well. Well, that's different. Hi, hot ghost mom. Quick, stab him while he's distracted! Eat shit, Abel. You're not gonna get me to feel happy for him, show. Meanwhile, Yukimaru's still standing there with that massive chest wound. What the FUCK is this kid? Batman Ninja- I have no idea what's going on but it sure looks cool as shit. CHAMPLOO MODE, GO. I'm sure the Joker Samurai will help you. Bruce they're wearing Joker masks you really have to guess who their boss is? I'm glad Joker's having a good time. Oh my god I hope sexy geisha Ivy shows up. God I'm gay for Catwoman. SHOW ME FEUDAL IVY RIGHT DAMN NOW. God I'm gay for Poison Ivy. Kagome never gave a shit about changing the timeline. ALFRED! Batmobile, motherfuckers! Please tell me the castle turns into a goddamn mecha. Oh hell yes. Bats this is obviously a trap. Holy shit Samurai Bane is cracking me up. Wow what a shock it was Harley the whole time. BATS. Oh hey, it's everybody else. Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na BATCLAN. Monkey! This is a date. Well you can't accuse the man of being subtle. Goddamn this fight is sick. Wow what a surprise the evil monkey is betraying us. Hey there, Two Face. And then everyone died. LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOO. Well this took a turn. Harley's probably just thrilled to be his wife. Aw shit there goes that laugh. Wait does he have actual goddamn feudal penguins as henchmen? Hellooooo Ivy. GODDAMN that armor is cool as fuck. This is just a delight to watch. Whelp everybody's possessed. Aw shit this was a Planet of the Apes plot all along. Surprise, monkey boy! This is some straight up Team Rocket shit. Oh shit we're going full MegaZord here. "Use my army of monkeys to defeat the Joker" is literally the greatest sentence I've ever heard. Oh my god the monkeys combined THIS IS NOT A DRILL. I want Catwoman and Fujiko to be friends. No not the monkeys! Oh right, the actual bat ninjas. I literally never want an explanation for the giant bat Batman amalgamation. I assume they sent the child to fight Ivy because he's too young to simp for her. Isn't that the flower from Promised Neverland? God I'm gay. BEAT HIS ASS, BATS. Joker's definitely getting off on this. Tonight's theme is the hero samurai getting stabbed in the chest. Oh hell yes. I love everything about this. 10/10 for giving me the same sense of pure childlike joy I felt watching the cartoon 25 years ago. Red Hood- Oh shit is that Ras? You okay there, Robin? I, uh, I don't think Robin's okay. Aw shit of course there's a bomb. Oh yeah this is gonna go just great. I'm sure this guy in the mask isn't Robin back from the dead. Fuck this truck in particular. Hey look, robot demon. All I know about Nightwing is that he's got a great ass and everyone's horny for him. I wonder if Neil Patrick Harris owns stock in DC or something because I feel like he shows up in these things a lot. And then those dudes died. Oh hey, Joker lore. You'd think they'd eventually just give Joker a muzzle. Ohhh we found a sore spot there. Make sure you don't mention this guy's weird gross face. This totally isn't evil Robin, no sir. Wow, it's almost like he knows all of Batman's methods somehow. MY LEG. Sassy Alfred is the best. Oh shit he knows your secret identity, how could that be? Look at this adorable little bastard. Oh yeah dude this plan is gonna work out just perfect for you. And then that guy was on fire. Your lightsabers won't save you now! Batman time. Oh dang, I think Red Hood is actually the Robin who died. Alfred needs a hug. This secretary has absolutely no fear. I think you got his attention. This is clearly not some kind of ploy. Aw hell of course we're freeing the Joker. It's always best to do your dramatic grave digging in the middle of the night. That corpse is looking weirdly pristine...wow what a surprise it's fake. Joker, not giving a single fraction of a fuck. Fuck you, Ras! Oh, so it's Fancy Man's fault. Does hiring the Joker ever work out well for anyone? Oh hey, Ras's hot daughter. Man, I'm starting to think that bringing traumatized corpses back from the dead is more trouble than it's worth. Bruce could use a hug. Meanwhile, clown shenanigans. I don't htink anybody would really be too upset if those guys died. You can go ahead and kill Joker if you want. Look I'm pretty sure he's earned this particular murder. It's family drama time. Oooooh Dad's mad. Objectively, you should probably just make a special exception for the Joker and kill him. Joker's having a great time. Everybody needs a hug and I'm including myself in that. -
The fact that WB's handing Toonami extra Batman movies that are brand new and well-received is a good thing. It means somebody over there actually sees the block as a solid tool worth supporting. We want them to keep thinking we're a good investment and giving us special movie nights that bring in extra high ratings. Stop whining that the sky is falling again.

Didn't Demon Slayer's new season start like, a week ago? I doubt the dub will have enough episodes ready to air before Thanksgiving at the earliest. Ass Class is the most obvious answer for one of those slots and I'd be surprised if it didn't pop back up to replace something. Yashahime can probably just belly flop into season 2 without a break, god help us all. It's just a real rough coincidence that so many shows are ending so close together.- 47 replies
