GT... fanboys?

Sasuke's Ninja Way = being a douche, apparently.

Does it have a dub at all? I had to pause and rewind a lot to to get everything in that nen explanation. Don't know if the dialogue is often that quick and elaborate or not. With all the shit I've talked, what makes you think that? Gon and Killua really not that likable or relatable in the other version. Gon barely has a personality at first, and then yeah you learn later on he isn't exactly the best person morally speaking. I don't think there's anyone around that's going to set him on the straight and narrow, either. Of course, Gon is nothing compared to other nutcases in the show. But, it's kind of hard to want to follow a protagonist like that. The other thing I don't like how is was set up like Gon, Killua, Kurapika, and Leorio were the main group, but then the last two go off on their own and only appear infrequently. Leorio barely at all, from what I've heard. Does the world at least make more sense and is better explained? The Zoldycks being treated like famous celebrities with their house on a tour seemed ridiculous to me. Not only the fact that what they're doing is apparently legal, but you'd think they would want to be more secretive. And let's not forget that prison apparently exists, but they make people like Hisoka a Hunter. Though of course the lingering thing in the back of my mind is the series will probably never have an ending. The guy is boring as hell, and so is his student. I don't know why you would make such a bland character like that to explain something so important. Yeah I've seen that a few times in anime but not sure if I've seen it at as much recently. Alright.

Pretty funny. That wasn't the whole OVA, right?

Noooo it's not!

1. But the art style is shit, so who cares. 2. And two of them are playing two characters each. Cheapness and laziness!

OH GOD DAMN IT! Also, They don't even look like cats. LET'S MAKE A THUNDERCATS VERSION OF TEEN TITANS GO! EVERYONE LOVED THAT, RIGHT? LOLOLOL And using a similar art style to Stephen Universe. "This series is all about honoring the original. As a fan, this is the show I want, so I hope others want it too." AAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! That creator looks like a total douche bag with that little girl pony tail on top of is head. About as face-punchable as they get.

Oh ok. I never knew that. Let's hope they can make that happen then. I see. Hmm. Would like to own it at some point anyway, but I'm pretty broke so it may be a while.

Nah, Noelle is much more sympathetic and likable. And she's actually contributed and isn't completely worthless like Sakura is.

Yeah we kept telling him to drop the show. Didn't think he would, lmao. Don't think he has dropped any shows!

But the abomination that is Lucky Star needs to be sealed away with the Evil Containment Wave.

I don't really care for Reddit's format at all.

Damn, I really don't remember that at all. Maybe I need to do a re-watch at some point here.

I agree that they've gone back and forth too many times. Well, to be technical, a bullet could work if Goku Black was powered down and his guard down. They usually catch or dodge the bullets. They aren't bullet-proof like Superman ya' know. But, still, unlikely to work, I chalk it up to Mai being stupid. Is it past SSG? We don't really know how strong he is. I wasn't really under the impression that he was on equal footing with Black or Zamasu, either, and that they were just toying with him. I thought there was only a limit for how many days in a row, not how many times total? Well you could say that about any case before this. Whenever Trunks would travel back and forth in time, it seemed like he would come back however much time later as what time passed where he was travelling from. Almost more like they are different worlds, than time periods where Trunks is travelling to specific times. So, 3 days pass in the present and they go back 3 days later from when they were last there in the future. It seems like it's always been like that. I do agree the visuals leave something to be desired. Buu sensed everyone's energy and used seeker blasts to target everyone. Zamasu seems to be using a more direct approach, maybe even taking it slow because he enjoys killing them? And do we even know if anyone besides Buu could use that ability? They could just destroy the planet, but they wanted to kill all mortals, not destroy where they are living. Also I guess animals are excempt since they don't have the same level of intelligence, and cause as much "defilement." I don't agree with that, but maybe I'm just more forgiving of it because of how much I love Dragon Ball. DBZ was my gateway series, even though I saw anime before that, after that was when I became an active fan, and it's pretty much my top series, up there with Robotech. I know a lot of people hate GT, but I think it's pretty fun and decent for a what-if sequel. Not a "worthy successor" by any means, but not terrible.

Going ahead on one of them if one wasn't ready only makes sense if they didn't want to do one continuous FLCL hype-o-thon run. I'd have no issue with them not airing back to back if they didn't feel the need to air reruns in between. Things should be streamlined since Toonami funded this. And during that featurette that was aired I noticed them dubbing over incomplete sequences, even, so if they aren't done dubbing by now, then... Been a long time since I've seen Paranoia Agent. I don't remember an episode focusing on anime production. Well, believe it or not, I don't look into all that stuff that deeply and feel the need to know every person in the credits' life story. Author/creator, I might look them up, but there's still a few I know pretty much nothing about. Probably know a bit more about manga production though, even though I'm more of an anime person than a manga person. Since if there's any issue with the mangaka, that messes up everything down the pipeline. There's the editor's influence and interference, which seems to have ruined a lot of series' potential. Then there's the amount of work that goes into it and the endless hours, people working themselves near to death, etc. Kubo was sick a lot for years and hospitalized many times, and discovered he a had a fracture in his drawing arm after he finished Bleach. I have heard of shows being delayed or episodes delivered incomplete, or in subpar condition, etc, but I always assumed it was because those particular studios/workers didn't have their shit together when working on said shows, not that it was "business at usual."

There's six OVA episodes? Are they worth buying the blu-ray/dvd for?

It's not the same people? D: We'd have to look up which episodes he did. Some Shippuden episodes look great, others are horrid. It's a shame, though. Hope this new season doesn't end up sucking.

It took them years to dub Final Act!

Apparently it completely neglected to introduce a character, which causes issues later on. Sounds like there is a lot of filler and padding in the 2011 version, then... I do like the visuals better. 2011 version is super bright, which tells me it's probably done in a computer. I like hand-drawn better. Still, looks like this is a cliff notes version over the course of several episodes. There could me more boring parts in between. In the 2011 version, they watched a video of Hisoka fighting and broke it down piece by piece. And the glasses guy is still creepy. Maybe. Like I said though, I think if I don't like the new version, I probably wouldn't like the old version. Plus I was pretty much beyond fed up with it, or I wouldn't have broken my self-imposed completionist rule of watching every ASA and Toonami show from beginning to end. Well yeah, it doesn't cover that arc. I'm pretty sure a similar spider in a web shot was used in InuYasha, maybe even more than once, referencing Naraku.

Edit - this editor is annoying. I tried to spoiler-mark the youtube embed so it wouldn't be on the page twice, and it spoilered everything from the rest of that post downward instead. And why can't you delete posts anymore?

It didn't come off that way to me.

Wow, spoil much?

His name is Nero, or "Troll Bird."
