The only good thing to have come out of super were the female characters. Vegeta lost his balls, Goku has become the worst living thing in the multiverse. People complained about the "hero of hope nightmare to you" speech from DBZ, but most of the arcs are now caused directly by his actions. He had to challenge Zamasu the racist kai with a damn Mephisto to a fight when told not to. He had Zeno destroy a whole future timeline. Got Zeno to erase multiple universes and either way of the outcome had his universe at risk, brought back Frieza who does go back on his genocidal conquest of the Galaxy, and allows him to do so because "I want to see if he'll get stronger", Goku jobs to a ray gun, Goku allows the earth to get destroyed by Frieza and only gets saved because of asspulls, Krillin becomes so beta that guns hurt him when they couldn't when he was a child, Gohan continues to be a disappointment. I put up with a lot of shit though for 18 and the female angels and saiyans.

Netflix gets Trigger to make Cyberpunk 2077 prequel
HardcoreHunter replied to Jman's topic in Anime & Manga
Sounds fake, I haven't heard of it and Poke hasn't heard of it. -
I don't know if it's everywhere or just those being vocal online or just our small corner of the internet. Though it feels like nobody really gives two shits about any sort of Dragonball reruns. Dragonball marathons usually get okay to good ratings which is why I said IDK. The thing is that people put up with DBZ a lot because it was good. The problem is that it was way overplayed. Most of us could probably act out the arcs from memory we've seen them so much. Then we have DBS. It's not good, it's sometimes a chore to sit through even when it's a new episode. It has some good moments though the delivery and pacing of the episodes feels wrong in some way. We all grew up watching pre-kai og DBZ a show where they cut out 100 episodes worth of screaming and filler for kai. So it is weird to gripe about stuff super does, but fuck some of those arcs gave me physical pain at times. Really I don't know how Toonami is doing reruns anymore. I remember years back on ASMB someone asked about what happened to all the show reruns that they used to do, like showing last weeks episode before the new episode. They said it was too expensive they can't run shows in syndication anymore like they used to.and were moving to the one and done format. I thought at the time that it was more about trying to get more viewers in watching the network, because ratings boards were still figuring out how to calculate DVR recordings; and that may have been what was hurting them. Then for a while I guessed that maybe they're right that it is a money thing because that would make sense. Though now if that is the case it just makes them fucking idiots unless they got the worlds greatest deal on getting to rerun shows. I mean if they had to pay for these, there are probably dozens of shows that would have done better and probably would have been cheaper. Outlaw star, FLCL (not the bullshit seasons), trigun, fucking S-CRY-ed and Pilot Candidate feel like better options than reruns of dragonball super.

What Youtube video are you watching?

Been years since I even visited the old Adult Swim website. Hope they don't charge money for their virtual con like some have. At the same time unless they use something like Twitch to host the stream I doubt it will go on without a hitch. More than likely there will be lag out the ass and 80% of the people will be in a virtual que waiting to get access. God help those who get booted or lose connection and get sent back in the Que. Just like a real con! Though really that shit happened with me when I was watching Joe Bob on Shudder. Was fucking livid after finally waiting hours to get in I got booted from the server back into the que. The site was booting people who were inactive for over 30 mins. Thing is when you are watching a movie you tend not to move your mouse much. So I got booted multiple times before I figured that out. Then every 15 mins I was shaking the mouse so I wouldn't get booted by the server. It was a 24hr marathon. So I couldn't even doze or I'd have been booted back to the que.

Yes but my mask is doing nothing for me personally. If you ask ten people why they're wearing a Mask I bet they'll say it's to protect them from getting sick. Four will probably say because the store/govt told them to and one will probably say it's to protect others from getting sick. Though then if you ask them if they're sick, they'll say no; so ask why are you wearing a mask to keep other people from being sick if you personally aren't sick. "well the asymptomatic"; oh the fuckin asymptomatic demographic. The one that according to the CEBM accounts from anywhere between 3 and 80% of all cases which is code for they have no idea. The real problem is the fucked work ethic that companies have instilled into people. Americans can be on our death beds and still think we have to go in for our shift. Cause you only get like 3 unpaid sick days then it eats into your 5 days of paid vacation. So people get sick and wander around ignoring it like pope ignores pedophiles in the church. In every other developed country a month of paid sick days a month of paid vacation, husbands get maternity leave and pay along with their wives so she isn't home alone after pushing an 8lb flesh ball out of her vagina. So maybe if America had adopted some of these practices then maybe people wouldn't be shitheads and wander out of the house and infect everyone when they're sick. The masks are pretty much for the Karen at the office who is coughing and sneezing saying "oh I'm not sick it's just allergies I can't afford to be sick". I wear my mask because I have to, but I know it's not doing me any favors. Since I'm not sick I know it's not doing anyone else favors aside from not having to look at my face. Though it's dumb when people think that its keeping them from getting sick. Though that is how people are they're selfish and will only wear them thinking that they're helping themselves. There's always that person on the news who says "could you live with yourself if you knew you got my grandma sick and she died". It's a guilt trip but I know everyone in the back of their mind thought "fuck your grandma, bet that old bitch was the one who rosa parks wouldn't move seats for on the bus".

Masks don't keep healthy people healthy unless you have a full vacuum seal around your face and filters. If there is any gap you get more air in through the sides of your mask then you do breathing through your mask. Though if you cough or sneeze there is a mask that is going to catch the majority of the particulates from getting into the air and making other people sick. As for the locked door it's no safer. If someone wants into your house they're getting in. Funny enough for cars anyway you can even call your insurance provider on this. They will tell you never lock your car door. If you have anything worth stealing in your car they're just going to smash the window and take it. So rather than just having your stuff stolen had you left it unlocked. You now have it stolen and a broken window. Also the robber is going to rob the house regardless of the door situation. No robber on earth has ever gone up to a house, the door is locked and said "fuck foiled again". As for it being loud you'd be surprised what sounds people are conditioned to ignore. You'll see all the time on the news. "I herd a bang I thought someone was setting off fireworks or something and just didn't think nothin of it". Also the people I know who did home robberies did them dead of day like 9am everyone is at work, smash into the house grab some shit and leave. Nobody is robbing a house in the dead of night when everyone is asleep in the house and is going to hear the slightest sound. Same shit goes with dogs. Everyone thinks their dog will keep people out. You know how many dogs clam down if you talk to them in a nice voice and give them treats....Just about all of them unless you have one trained exclusively to kill any intruders. I digress people just want the sense of security, and don't give a shit about how safe they really are. Just as long as they think they're safe. Govt has done this forever, duck and cover was an obvious won't do shit but puts peoples minds at ease so they don't worry about it. Though it's also why people have such a backlash once something bad does happen and their security blanket didn't help them like they thought it would. People go to therapy every day trying to cope with the idea that their house or car was broken into. Because they no longer feel safe. If a lock can't keep someone out then what's to stop the queen of england from kicking down my door and beating my wife and moving my pans out of order in the kitchen? If the govt said "yeah these security blankets we're telling you to put on your face aren't going to keep you from getting sick, just help you from getting others sick". A lot of people would either be in denial "No I can tell mine works because I wear it all the time and I haven't gotten sick", or they could panic and start hoarding because they want to go out as little as possible.

I'll also see people doing dumb shit like scratching their nose or itching their eye with gloves on....like wtf! People don't invest in safety they invest in the idea of safety. People will still lock their homes like it will stop anything, even if they have windows on ground level or glass doors. It does nothing at all if someone wants to get in, all they need is a rock. Though it makes people feel like they're safe. Same thing with masks. It does nothing for healthy people. In Japan for years you'd only wear a mask if you were sick. Though in our minds we associate masks with protection. Doctors wear masks so they must do that because they have to see so many sick people and can't afford to get sick. When in reality they wear masks because they don't want to get other people sick in case they do catch something. As for gloves there is a correct method to remove them. You have to pull one off down to your fingers, then before it's off you use your fingers that are still gloved to start removing the other glove. Then when both are down to the fingers you just pull with both hands and both gloves are now inside out and off of your hand and can be thrown away or soaked in a weak bleach bath when you get home to sanitize.

I take mine off the moment I get outside. People run for their lives like I just pulled out a gun. Also got a letter from the YMCA about mask policy. You have to wear one in the entry lobby, but not in any of the exercise rooms or pool. That just seems dumb to me. Gloves are also overkill and probably don't work because people don't know how to wear them and still touch their dumb faces with gloves on. Watched one lady removing her gloves. She took the one off fine, but she didn't want to touch the other glove with her clean hand, so she used her mouth to help pull off the other glove. It's like using a condom then after sex you pull it off and dump the contents into her womb. I mean at least then the person wearing the condom would still be safer from STDs at least. Really all you need to do is not touch your mouth/face and eyes after touching anything.

Ours aren't mandatory anymore, but store policy at most places still means you have to wear them. Still will see psychos that wear them while driving and don't get that the mask helps you from getting others sick not prevents you from getting sick. If anything my mask is probably increasing my chances of getting sick. Been using that thing for like 2 months now and only washed it once. Gotta be like putting a sock that you've worn for months on your face at this point. Should probably wash that thing.

Yeah you're right it wasn't post WWII. Nihon Kraft ltd does have a mayo for japanese markets but it's not "Kewpie" the brand, just in that style. I guess like how Sriracha got big then we saw like 100 knockoff Sriracha brands made by big companies; even Heinz which is also merged with kraft has a Sriracha. Though it's different than what I was thinking like how Hershey makes and distributes Cadbury products in America etc Conglomerates and subsidiaries. As for mayo though it depends on what you're using it for. If I were having a sandwhich I'd want some Mayo. If I'm eating something hot then Kewpie is better, and Whip can just go in the trash. Kewpie tastes closer to whip but Kewpie is by far better just because of texture and it's not nearly as sweet.

The writers only planned season 1 out of Korra and it showed. The problem after season one was just lack of character growth, ass pulls, and shit villains. Korra was just made to be a horrible person that they expected people to root for. Aang and the gang would learn and grow as characters as the series progressed. Korra's cast only ever fell backwards and the fight would be for them to get back to the baseline of what they were. Could probably write a damn essay about what was done wrong with that show but won't bother because I think anyone who has seen it can just tell it's fucked. Dumb though that the writers were so horribly incompetent that they couldn't write Amon back into the show as a return villain. They even did an interview saying, "had we known we'd have gotten another season we wouldn't have killed off amon or made it more ambiguous because we really think we could have done more with him". Are you fucking with me? You're writers! Fucking write asspulls you hacks! The death was ambiguous because we never saw him die we just saw an explosion. Just have had him water bend the last moment to save himself. Though have his face actually get disfigured from the explosion as irony to his fake scar before, which causes him to actually wear a damaged version of his mask to cover it. There I effortlessly did their job.

Kraft has a Kewpie mayo company in Japan. It's like how Mars is a candy bar company though they also make Pedigree dog food and Whiskers cat food. Japanese mayo though is just miracle whip. It's a sweet mayo rather than a tangy mayo. Mostly due to rice vinegar being less acidic than white vinegar. It's just adjusted to their tastes. Saying it's superior though would be like saying american asian food or sushi is superior to Japanese or Chinese food; just because it's adapted to american tastes.

I was thinking more thundercats 2011. First I think the art style looks good so far from that trailer. Now for what I didn't like about it. One that music was ear cancer, and Two Crunchy has no idea how to make a trailer. There was no real info given in that trailer that isn't relent on speculation. Trailers are supposed to lay down the plot. This felt like it was hashed together by Michael Bay. I'll have some examples below of how a good trailer presents a show vs bad trailers. From what I can gather of the plot though. MC is picked to be sacrificed because the gods don't have enough blood to share among themselves. Jaguar Deity Gives the boy powers in exchange for something when he's about to die. I have no idea who the majority of the characters are, or what the hell that spear looking thing is. I'm guessing the one Aztec sport that is always shown in everything Aztec is going to be a big part of the show seeing as the kids use an energy ball from the game. No idea why things are attacking everyone. Good trailer Bad trailers that are all random nonsense that do nothing to tell you what the story is about

Post WWII america westernized Japan and brought them things that 1950s Americans enjoyed like the 50s obsession with Mayo.
