I really love Black Clover now. It's probably one of my favorite anime series. I don't know why people talked so much shit about it. Besides the obvious semi-parody aspects, the characters and storyline have really been great, and only improving as the story goes on. It was recently revealed that Noelle isn't bad at aiming, she simply subconsciously doesn't want to hurt people. She can aim just fine and is very powerful, and took out the arm and torso of a villain in one shot that the entire cast couldn't lay a scratch on. Vanessa is a very competent mage with useful ability, thread magic, that can be used to aid others in addition to fighting on her own, for great combo attacks. ALSO COMBO AND TEAM ATTACKS. YOU NEVER SEE THAT ENOUGH IN SHONEN! Gray turned out to be a shy, timid girl all along, and with different ways of using her transformation magic, even on other objects besides herself, and was instrumental in helping Gauche defeat the Eye of the Midnight Sun member he came across. Charmy showed an unexpected badass side which I can't wait to see more of. Right now, the Black Bulls and the Magic Knights have already defeated the leader, main villain, essentially, of the series, or at least current arc, and he's laid up in a magic bacta tank. Not only did they fight the big bad first, but he is weaker, and now they're fighting Vetto, his henchmen. With the voice of Fat Cat, troll powers of Aizen, and character design of a He-man villain, he is truly a worthy opponent! You'd never see this happen in One Piece, maybe Naruto or Bleach at times, had strong villains besides the main enemy, but they usually weren't fought after the main boss. Imagine if the Arrancar Arc ended with Aizen already beaten and the Soul Society having to take out Yammy's straggling troll-ass. Would Luffy ever fight the main boss, beat him, then take on a henchman? Would someone BESIDES Luffy ever land a crippling blow, much less defeat him? Nope. At least things changed up with the last 3 arcs on the bubble island, prison, and navy HQ, but still... we'll see if this continues or it goes back to comfort zone after the time skip. I still haven't gotten around to watching that far. The women in My Hero Academia have been irrelevant and weak, and done fuck all to contribute to the plot. Deku's mother's character design and personality did a 180, during the time skip from the childhood flashbacks, with no explanation, and is now an annoying obese joke character and second worst character in the series behind Mineta, who is completely pointless himself and only exists to annoy. Numo is stronger than Evil Idle Hands L, but Handsy L still isn't beaten. The art, animation, and production values, music, and comedy have all been top notch as well. For me, Black Clover is up there with Robotech/Macross, Dragon Ball, Bleach, Fairy Tail, SAO, Monster, Moribito, Kekkaishi, Cowboy Bebop, Fullmetal Alchemist 03 and B, Ghost in the Shell, The Big O, Rave Master, as one of my favorite manga/anime series. I really hope Toonami renews it and continues it for the rest of its run. If they don't, I'll watch on FuniNow and then start reading the manga.

Probably a lab. Kid Vegeta is seen training against Saibamen on Planet Vegeta in the Bardock special. And I mean, if they were already defeated by Earthlings in the fight against the Saiyans, no sense in the Frieza Army using them later. If they were a Saiyan thing specifically, well it makes sense why they were never used again either. -
https://www.redthreadgames.com/ https://www.redthreadgames.com/dreamfall-chapters https://www.redthreadgames.com/backers/ https://twitter.com/redthreadgames https://twitter.com/ragso https://twitter.com/DFChapters https://www.youtube.com/user/RedThreadGaming https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/redthread/dreamfall-chapters-the-longest-journey/posts/2287511 https://forum.redthreadgames.com/forum/topic/5103-kickstarter-update-115/ Left this post on their forum. Still considering other ways I might get ahold of them that might actually get a response - I still have not gotten my boxed Journeyman Edition, despite Red Thread's claim in this Kickstarter update that they got them out to almost all of their $110 tier backers. In fact, I didn't donate to that tier, but the $125 tier, and it's not mentioned anywhere in the update, and when I went to look at the Kickstarter page recently, it was conspicuously absent. I wasn't then nor now made of money, so I wouldn't have donated $125 over $110 if there weren't some considerable greater reward for doing so. I sent them this email at the contact information they listed, and have heard nothing back (left off my address in this post) - I have been very patient and understanding with the setbacks and other unforeseen mishaps that have gone on behind the scenes, but it's getting to the point where I'm wondering if I'm going to be getting my physical game copy. Unless they think I donated to the $200 tier, since I got the update about the Wonkers USB key. But, being the honest person I am, I didn't feel right just sitting back and getting something I wasn't entitled to nor paid for, especially when it might mean someone else didn't get the stuff they paid for. Of course, if I sat back and said nothing, I could also still just never get anything. I have no proof of this theory, just a guess, since I got that email about the Wonkers thing. I also see that they seem to have removed the forum link from their website, and in previous threads I read they said that Ragnar ignores anyone who asks about Dreamfall Chapters rewards on Twitter. It does not inspire confidence, to say the least. At least the game is good? Or so I hear? I still haven't been able to play it. My computer turned out to be too under-powered to handle it. It can't even get through the opening cutscene without constant unwatchable buffering. I can't imagine what the actual game would be like. And in any case, this game series is story driven. I'm not going to play a TLJ/Dreamfall game without cinematics. I, of course, have not had the money to buy a new computer, and every time I try to buy a PS4, either some financial setback happens, or we have to pay for something essential, or some other BS happens. It's really quite frustrating. I fell in love with this series and the genre of Adventure games late in the game, when I happened upon a copy of Dreamfall for Xbox on the shelves at Game Crazy. After that I got the set with TLJ and Dreamfall for PC. Love both of those games. Also got a game called Syberia II for Xbox which was quite fun. I had dreamed of years for a sequel to Dreamfall, that cliffhanger had me really wanting to see what would happen next, how things would turn out. So it saddens me that I'm not only unable to play Dreamfall Chapters after all this time, but the developers who I thought cared about their fans and about this game series, don't seem too keen on honoring their word and giving us what was promised. I didn't donate to this Kickstarter lightly. As I said, I'm fairly poor. Games are an expensive hobby and I have to pick what I want to play and what systems very carefully and deliberately, much of which I buy used these days. My last console purchase was a Wii U. I do sincerely hope this is just some sort of miscommunication or misunderstanding and that that email is bad or something, and not that Red Thread is simply blowing off fans and hoping no one notices or cares because of the relatively small fanbase for TLJ/Dreamfall and Adventure games overall. Either way, I hope there is a good explanation for this. Thanks for your time and I hope we can get to the bottom of this and get me and possibly others their game boxes and possible other physical rewards.

I see... Could they have not... researched it better? Did companies just not communicate back in those days? Yes but... Puar is a cat. You really think being around a female cat creature is the same as human women or other humanoid race women in the world of Dragon Ball? Come on. -

http://dragonball.wikia.com/wiki/Puar WHAT THE FUCK?! Still, female according to Ocean and Funimation. Not my fault! And can you blame me? But, I would just have never seen Puar as a boy at all. By the way, why is it a big deal that Tien and Chaotzu could fly if Puar could? And why did no one ask Puar how... *ahem* he flies? Is it done using magic unique to Puar that can't be taught?? But, Puar is still a cat. Advocating beastiality now, Mochi? -
After all the shit people talked about this show it's great to see it escape the shonen trappings in multiple ways and blow Naruto out of the water, among other series. Intentional semi-parody or not, this show is great in its own right.

PLEASE do something about that trollfucker. Finaal can actually fight and use his powers in useful ways? Nice, using threads to alter Asta's movements. Love these combo and team attacks. Need more of this in shonen, and anime, period. Get tired of 1 v 1s.

Vetto - Aizen's troll power, with the voice of Fat Cat and character design of a He-man villain. And is apparently a henchman who is not only stronger than Licht, the leader and main villain, but strongest member of Eye of the Midnight Sun, period?!

One last save from Kahono. Aww. "You're just as amazing as I thought you were." Noelle couldn't even tsundere off that one. Inner monologue - "Asta just said I was amazing as he always thought I was! And Asta... touched me! AAAAAHHHHHH!" You're back there?! Get in the fight you cowardly asshole!
