Top Gun

FUCK yes. Made in Abyss is a masterpiece.

I always think of that 30 Rock episode where it's a paradise.

No, this show was licensed and dubbed a couple of years before the pandemic. That's why the massage is funny, because it doesn't apply at all to this case.

Those messages are pretty clearly something that FUNi included in the episodes, not anything [as] did.

I mean it's just some intern getting a bit too enthusiastic. Kind of funny.

That alone is why I know I could never be a parent. Someone else puking near me sets me the hell off too.

I mean Sentai's just distributing the home video of Lupin. From what I can tell TMS pretty much has full control of the property from their end. They're the ones commissioning the dub with the main English cast.

*pain*

Unless Toonami is attempting to cater to 12-year-old rednecks I'm not sure why it would even entertain the idea of wrestling content.

Man I totally forgot there was a Champloo rerun. I swear it's easier for me to remember what was going on in 2006 than what the Toonami rebrand was doing 5 years ago.

About damn time. The first season was a blast so I was hoping we'd get the other half sooner than later.

It's a fun ride. I know we have a couple of big anime-does-Western-superheroes franchises now, but what I liked about it is how depressingly realistic its premise feels. If people with superpowers started showing up today, of course someone would try and spin a reality show out of it, and of course everything would be plastered with corporate sponsorships. It's incredibly refreshing to have a protagonist that's an adult single father as opposed to the standard hyperactive teenager, and the rest of the cast is full of colorful personalities who each get at least a bit of time to shine.

I'll never understand why the block didn't go after the first season back in the day (or maybe they did and couldn't get it). It would have been a perfect fit.

I technically have a Netflix account through our Xfinity subscription, but I've never once bothered to log into it.

It is morally justifiable to pirate any and all things Netflix.

Genuine first reaction: "eh, I've seen bigger."

HEEELLLLLLSHAKE! HEEELLLLLLSHAKE!

i genuinely do not get the absurd hype over these basic-ass chicken sandwiches. Like, a nice grilled chicken club with cheese and BLT? Sure, that's doing something. But just slapping the chicken between two slices of bread with some token pickles? That's just lame.

Well no, I don't think it's strange that you remember it if you saw it right after you started watching the block. At the same time you're probably one of the few who does, since even trying to look up information about it, the only reference I ever saw was to its April 2004 premiere. What gets me is that I know I saw at least part of it somewhere on TV ages ago, but if it wasn't on [as] then I have no idea where. There was a watching thread for it on the ASMB, but I think I'd already seen it by then.

...probably, because most people don't remember random reruns 17 years after the fact?

I forgot how great most of The Animatrix was. I could have sworn I'd seen it on TV somewhere before, but apparently this was the first airing since it premiered back in 2004.

The new arc was made and is still ongoing, from what I understand.

The king has returned.

In retrospect I blame these two:
