Top Gun

I think Toonami's best bet at this point is in reaching out to the Japanese production companies directly (or those companies reaching out to them), as was apparently the case with One Piece and probably Gundam. I'm sure for a lot of these companies there's still a prestige factor to getting your product to air on linear TV internationally, and [as] has long working relationships with some of them.

MY LOVE FOR YOU IS LIKE A TRUCK BRZRKRRRRRR!

Just for some context, I'm part of one or two 20+-year-old specialty forum communities that probably have a fraction of the userbase and content generation that this site does, and yet the people who host them wouldn't so much as think of shutting them down due to lack of traffic, because the people who are still there have been for many years and genuinely enjoy posting, and every once in a while another oldbie wanders back in to have some fun for a bit. I'm not trying to tell you what you should or shouldn't do in the future, but I think there's a lot more to a site's worth than raw engagement numbers.

Botan is Best Girl.

What sad-sack voters out there are still tossing The Simpsons a courtesy nom?

Someone give Shingo Natsume and his team all the money to animate more.

From everything I've heard the second season is at least a substantial improvement over the first.

At the end of the day I don't even understand why Sony/Crunchyroll would be so hostile to working with [as]. Are they even competing for the same eyeballs at this point? Toonami has its own die-hard audience, but the vast majority of people watching anime there are probably also subscribed to Crunchyroll. They're obviously not using the linear broadcast rights for anything, so why not keep working with [as] in return for some ad space and hopefully getting more people to either subscribe or buy the shows on home video? It's a win-win situation, right?

I feel like no one on the planet has made that comparison except you yourself.

Well it's...something, at least?

You underestimate how many lazy motherfuckers like me there are who don't watch things unless they're dropped into their laps.

In any case, there's something I'm surprised hasn't come up in here. Demarco apparently had a tweet a week or two ago where he mentioned something "exciting" coming up, and then as soon as this news broke he said something like, "Glad this was finally announced!" Hmmmm...

So you're just a misogynistic piece of shit, got it.

Well give another good reason why you'd express hatred for the people who brought to light some of the seriously fucked-up things he did.

"I'm angry that the person I liked turned out to be a piece of shit so I'm going to take it on the people who helped out him as a piece of shit."

Except Vic has been human garbage for pretty much his entire career and has dodged serious allegations for nearly as long. So what, you're angry that he finally got what was his?

Does anyone actually want anything to do with Cyberpunk at this point, Imaishi or no?

FUNi had it out on BD well before the merger. It's just filling in the combined catalog some more.

I'm fine with the delays so long as the finished product looks as crazy as those short preview clips we've seen.

This has nothing to do with the show. And in One Piece terms, a "saga" can last for the better part of a decade.

In related news, hell has frozen over.

Season 5 hyyyyyype.

I can't. Nature is terrifying.
