Top Gun

Dude, just take the L. As usual you didn't know what you were talking about.

You do realize that both it and Soul Eater probably have/had a shitload of merchandise in Japan that never made it over here because only a small handful of series ever get mainstream enough in the US to warrant a ton of Hot Topic swag, right?

He realized that the universe needs more Douche Rogue.

Not a surprise at all. Hopefully everyone affected gets their services restored as soon as possible.

Wooooooo. A bit bummed that we're not getting the other half of AssClass right away, but it's good to know that we will in the future. Also it's not hard to figure out why Toonami aired the first two seasons of Food Wars back-to-back but is giving AssClass a break in-between. Sentai had just announced the license for season 3 right around when the block started airing it, so it'd be good promotion for their release of the next part. I don't remember if they'd released season 3 by the time that season 2's run finished, but I think it was pretty close, and they may not have had the broadcast rights worked out at the time. In contrast, AssClass is a pretty deep catalog title for FUNi at this point, so there's not really anything that'd be promoted by continuing on with it immediately.

Oh no he is absolutely that crazy.

Shouldn't that be Hagakure's line?

I wish to know more of these antifa sluts. For, uh, research purposes. Yes.

Why the fuck did someone not blow Brady's knees out during the first game of the playoffs. What does it take for people to learn?

Yeah, VAs get paid an hourly rate, so if they don't have a lot of roles at the moment, they're not going to have much income. It's why a lot of VAs (at least those who are LA-based) tend to do a lot of video game or generic VO work, since those tend to pay higher rates. A lot of long-term FUNi actors also take on production and directing roles.

I'd love to find out who actually worked on this thing.

Some ol' monkey paw bullshit.

Probably one of those lovely things that works fine in Chrome but is fucked everywhere else because lol modern web design.

So hey can we have a moratorium on posting auto-playing Reddit crap in here? Scares the hell out of me every time I open the thread.

If it lasts more than 4 hours, call your doctor.

Inbred redneck gonna redneck.

I'm kind of curious where this will go. The original series ended pretty definitively.

Again, put an ultimatum on him. Either he nuts up and posts with his own big-boy words why everything that happened was hunky-dory and not at all an attempt at armed insurrection, or he gets forcibly removed from this folder.

So Pompeo's spewing a list of inane bullshit proclamations on Twitter that will have exactly zero standing as soon as they're reversed within the first 24 hours of the new administration, and the MAGAts are practically cumming themselves seeing the frequency of the tweets as some sort of "countdown timer." Imagine living your life being cucked that hard.

Pence is Number Two. Always having to deal with his boss's crazy bullshit and never able to pursue his own normal, respectable, garden-variety evil.

Exactly. The Toonami broadcast was severely hamstrung from the outset, much like the rest of the show's history on US television. The initial run of FUNi episodes on OG Toonami picked right up from That-Which-Shall-Not-Be-Named at the start of Jaya/Skypeia, but it got cut off halfway through. Fast-forward several years, and the new Toonami run skips a few dozen episodes and starts with the next arc. I know they probably didn't want to start such a gargantuan property all the way back at the beginning, and I'm sure FUNi had a vested interest in promoting sales of the more recent parts of their release, but a neophyte viewer was going to have no context whatsoever for the characters or their relationships. It didn't help that they started off with the most filler-esque canon arc of the entire series, one that even a lot of long-time fans don't particularly like. Ironically, the preceding G8 Arc was filler that felt like canon and receives almost universal praise, and it honestly would have been a much stronger starting point to hook new viewers. I'm not sure what the solution was in terms of how to handle the series. Honestly it's the sort of thing that just about requires a daily timeslot, so that people can watch or DVR whole chunks of episodes at once and get caught up in something resembling a reasonable amount of time. But with how things went, I think most of the people who were watching were like myself, Toonami viewers who were already established fans of the series. The fact that it's done very well on streaming venues that have every episode from the beginning posted is proof that there are plenty of people out there willing to binge it.

Imma beat you over the head with Independence Day.

Kind of inevitable in hindsight.

Don't lie, we all know you're both there for /h/.

Red delicious apples should not exist.
