Top Gun

Totally blew my mind to learn that Zod was Chancellor Valorum.

What's always frustrated me the most about the whole situation is that there's no logical reason whatsoever for CR to view Toonami as competition. It's a programming block on linear television, a dying medium. Nearly everyone still watching the block presumably has a CR subscription too, outside of a few weird boomers like me who don't pay for streaming services. CR throwing Toonami a few series after their streaming premiere runs were done wouldn't have affected their bottom line at all. Hell, they could have included the stipulation of running a few ads for their service on the block, win-win.

Oh, is it really at 1AM now? I've been recording it the whole time, but after the first several weeks of schedule nonsense I didn't pay attention since my DVR seemed to figure it out. Wound up being useful too, since I started watching with some friends while having it piled up on there.

Because CR are complete assholes?

Fucking piece of shit was still largely responsible for getting him elected.

Fucking cowards.

Can that irredeemable cunt just fucking die?

What.

Why does it matter? It's at the end of the block and they have nothing else to throw on there.

So I guess my paying the extra $10 per month wasn't a sound investment.

Funny, I remember Superman fighting Nazis, not becoming one.

Just got the email from Xfinity here. Guess I'm getting bones out of $10 a month. Fuck you too Zaslav.

That IGPX run was so weird because they just...stopped. We've had plenty of back-end slots since where they could have run season 2, but nothing.

Why am I not surprised, they're basically a third world country.

Only three months in two years, what the fuck?

Yeah, that's right. There was a break in the dub production for a year or two, and I think they put out Episode of Sabo soon after they resumed as a way to drum up hype for the big arcs they'd be dubbing in the future. Fortunately McGropey was already out of the picture before they hit Dressrosa proper and we got the big upgrade to JYB. Fun fact: his original Japanese actor, Toru Furuya, was also involved in an awful sex scandal and stepped down from the role. If I had a nickel for every time etc. Morgan Garrett is credited as young Sabo's voice. Yeah, I was surprised to see that, I didn't remember that we saw his power way before he was actually introduced.

I mean this immediately falls apart because Ichigo got his zanpakuto from the moment Rukia first made him a substitute Soul Reaper, and we just saw tonight that Kenpachi already had one as a little kid. Haven't they been implying all along that zanpakuto are the physical manifestations of a Soul Reaper's powers?

I wonder if this could be a positive in that these shows may find a home on streaming services that have a much bigger audience than Max.

He really is the most pathetic cumstain currently walking the face of the earth.

Yeah, I was gonna say, has there ever been any anime produced that could actually take advantage of that format?

So are we all done playing with him yet?

Yeah, unfortunately you can't diagnose CTE while someone is still alive, but in any sane world mental health issues would be an immediate response flag against having access to firearms. Lucky for us we live here instead.

When you accidentally catch a bit of your cheek when chewing and OH GOD WHY.

Scott McNeil looks as badass as I hoped he would.

Sadly I don't think I've ever encountered any of his work.
