a little off topic but in the midst of this...I'm just browsing rightstuf anime's site(for the holiday sale)and noticed most notable viz media manga's have some volumes out of stock if not completely.... which means as soon as the new holiday bundles update in 20 minutes or so....there's gonna be some that are already out of stock due to that Unless there's some viz titles I've forgotten about somehow....

i got the twisted visions junji ito artbook and tomie hardcover deluxe during the second week of the black friday sale although since tomie's out of stock...no telling when that order will actually ship anyways this week's manga specials are bundles for (Viz)black clover black torch and no guns life (yen press)interspecies reviewers elders sister like one and val x love the single volumes for those series are also on discount this week

https://www.rightstufanime.com/ They've also been doing weekly manga specials for viz media and yen press published books as apart of this

that makes no sense...whatsoever why does the rerun of demon slayer get to stay for the night but naruto doesn't?

all these hbo max themed marathons aren't making it look any better

hestu felt really clunky to use

still though toonami doesn't really gain anything from this marathon....it's just to lead people to HBO Max and that's all

and i just don't think that's gonna work.....hbo max really doesn't have the original content to say it's as great as Warner says it is

i guess the same

Most of the darker stuff adult swim has aired in the past had some downtime of some kind and wasn't just non stop misery even attack on titan wasn't just titans eating people and there were moments where the characters weren't in peril

i dunno it just seems like HBO Max didn't become as popular as Warner wanted it to be and now they are trying to make it sound like it's better than it actually is

Crafting Wasn't in previous AC Games as mentioned by this comment and crafting is where the grind comes into play tools that break so you have to craft new ones before you can craft anything else.... events are all about collecting materials and crafting them to make more items... before NH....Crafting didn't even exist in AC so I'm not sure how the holiday events were always like this

Did i watch a different show or something? because the primal i watched wasn't happy or an enjoyable romp it was depressing and tragic with very little break from the madness most of the shows you listed weren't constantly going nuts there was downtime it wasn't just nonstop titan attacks or children being devoured by demons all the time

except the transition from what airs now to something like samurai jack wouldn't be as much of a mood whiplash as primal would be Imagine going from assassination classroom straight into primal.... and then afterwards it would be another mood shift as there's no way what comes after it would be as dreary or violent nobody can deny that the tonal shift from anything toonami airs now to "Primal" would be hard to ignore

another thing there's gonna be a boondocks marathon on friday which will also be advertising hbo max with another qr code for a trial ......this marathon really feels like toonami was told "Promote Our Flawless Streaming service and tell people to sign up while they watch this marathon!" which doesn't really help toonami in anyway....it just takes the regular break off in favor of some shameless advertising to beg people to sign up for hbo max so this wasn't done because toonami wanted it but more likely because ATT/Warner Media wanted it and toonami had to deal with it because a thanksgiving marathon when thanksgiving isn't exactly the big traveling holiday everyone's used to this year and without anything to really need to stall for it comes off as more than a little odd

I've Noticed How Desperate ATT/Warner-Media seems to be in getting people to subscribe to HBO Max but why is that? i haven't noticed Disney going to the lengths of screaming "Disney Plus Disney Plus!" all over every show they own and then making a Disney Plus Themed wrestling ring

so it's now confirmed that this marathon is nothing more than one big commercial for hbo max and that's the main reason this is even happening so they can talk about how great hbo max is and flash a qr code for a trial so that the viewers can experience the wonders of hbo max

no need to get so upset....I"m just voicing my opinion and my opinion is that i think people really paint primal as more of a toonami show than it really is feel free to disagree with me that is your opinion and i accept that but my opinion cannot be changed

regardless i guess my problem is that Primal's more of a depressing horrifying tale of tragedy than what toonami typically airs on the block Yes Primal Has Action but it's not the "Action" you think of when you think toonami and this is just my opinion but given how depressing this year has been i don't really need an entire marathon that makes me feel like shit because the entire atmosphere is hopeless despair

I Took it to mean that Crona was more or less an experiment of medusa's rather than an actual child that was born since crona has no father and medusa never really treats the character as anything more than an object to use there's never really any proof that crona is a real person instead of a fake entity that medusa conjured up

followed by the goriest scenes you can image from primal and panning back to the duo saying "On Second thought It'd be a living hell..."

the problem is there's nothing that toonami needs to buy time for right now so back to back to back marathons don't really make much sense right now going from primal to the regular block for two weeks then marathons for two weeks doesn't really do much for toonami the only thing they'd be buying time for currently would be fire force and even if you take away one marathon from december it's not gonna run out of episodes everything else on the block is a completed dub

Blair was the main source of fanservice in soul eater and she was nothing more than a very minor character
