DeMarco reveals another reason One Piece got kicked out
Top Gun replied to Lawliet720's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
I'm pretty chill last time I checked. If you want to make the argument that OP isn't mainstream, then yes, obviously. But there are...what...all of 4 or 5 anime series that have ever hit that target in the US? Maybe 9 or 10 if you're generous? A show that does very well for your average anime release yet doesn't hit those rarefied heights doesn't constitute a "failure." Like, it's an incredibly silly false dichotomy. -
DeMarco reveals another reason One Piece got kicked out

Being on television for 5 years straight also = flop. OP has achieved a pretty ridiculous sustained level of success in the US. Again, FUNi has been dubbing the series for more than a decade. They don't do that for shit that doesn't sell. (Ask Toriko.) Back when people actually gave a damn about Hulu, it was consistently in the top tier of streaming rankings across its entire catalog. It's right at the top on Crunchyroll's popularitly listing. People watch it here. Like I don't give a shit whether you like the series or not. But stop fucking lying about it. It makes you look like a tool. -

A US company dubbing and releasing on home video well over 500 episodes of a series and multiple movies while continuing to simulcast current episodes = flop. You heard it here folks. Seriously man, the knuckle-dragging hateboner act got old almost a decade ago. Find a new shtick. -
I think you misspelled Troi.

There was one relatively near here that shut down like 20 years ago. I have vague memories of my parents taking us there once or twice to see classic Disney movies being run.

Shiki is literally $10 on RightStuf right now. And the xxxHolic set has 26 episodes.

Soooo just how pathetic of an existence does someone need to have in order to constantly seek validation over useless minutiae from people who generally can't stand her?

a mini-essay on how gay Naruto is **spoilers**
Top Gun replied to mochi's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
No seriously, I've never actually forced myself through DBZ before this Toonami run, and I didn't realize how terrible he was. Like, how many times has he actively sabotaged all of existence? 3? 4? -

No, Vegeta isn't allowed to fight anyone because he's always been a shitty character overhyped by fanboys. -

Akira Toriyama can't draw people period. -
last time you saw any of these animals?
Top Gun replied to Phillies's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
Bebop: Currently working my way through the DVR backlog of the last Toonami run Trigun: The Toonami Badlands Rumble airing. It's been waaaaayyy too long on the series itself. FLCL: The run before Progressive. Evangelion: The 1.11 and 2.22 airings. It's probably been since [as] aired it for the series. Wolf's Rain: Wow, it's probably been since one of those Old School threads back in AD. Ridiculously overdue for a rewatch on this, it's a masterpiece. Inuyasha: Final Act on Toonami. The main series was at least a couple of years before that. GITS: Again, working my way through the DVR backlog of the last Toonami 2nd GIG run. FMA: For 2003 it was probably one of the last full runs [as] did before losing the license. Sorely overdue on that. Brotherhood was during the last [as] or Toonami run. I watched both the movies on Toonami too. -
Trunks Thread 19.1: A New New Frontier

I feel like he'd slice the blanket to shreds. The man is all acute angles. -
The direction was godawful, the characters looked ridiculous, the writing was uninspired, and it was chock-full of Gonzo's trademark hideous CG work. At least it was good for a laugh.

I might be, but just visiting the site generated a "Your browser is not supported" dialog, and if they're not even able to sniff out browser features properly, I'm not sure I trust them. What was that one other site a lot of people used? Used to be called Hummingbird or something?

I just want them to let me clear the single unread notification that's been driving my OCD nuts.

The forums being down is far more of a blessing than a curse.
-
The prior 20 or so episodes were pretty goddamn terrible too.

I miss when episode threads had actual commentary and discussion and weren't a shitty real-time chat feed.
