  2. Need to get back to listening to the show! Don't know if this is a good jumping back in point though.
  3. Yeah, it wouldn't be the first show that happened to. Puns aren't funny anyway.
  4. Because Demarco is a sick man.
  5. I never thought about them using it as a testbed for those other genres Demarco was talking about. It would be nice if they used it for something productive like that, like when Toonami first came back, instead of something retarded like they did last year.
  6. I remember the ratings going way down after that, and I think Jack's momentum got detailed too.
  7. Oh it was shit alright, but it wasn't funny. If that's their idea of funny, I'll skip it. Besides, the same episode over and over? Really?
  8. I'd like to think we left those kinds of people behind many years ago. And fair enough, but I'm just saying that whole talking point is usually overblown. Can't say I've seen too many series that didn't seem like they were so Japanese culture-centric that they wouldn't work well in localized form. Or one that was and lost anything for it. A lot of anime viewers will be generally interested in Japanese culture and want to learn more about it anyway. Though I don't think anime itself is the best way to do that or the most accurate representation...
  9. Why did they use her in all the promo material if she's in the second part? And so does this mean the 2 seasons don't have anything to do with each other? I didn't get that impression at all.
  10. New writer and director? Then what is the point? How is this "from the original creators?" The girl with the headphones has some modern anime cliche design cues.
  11. I didn't think Haruko's voice sounded that different. I was fearing something like Envy after I read the posts. Looks like there will be a whole group that Haruko recruits instead of of just one person.
  12. Subbies say this about literally every anime. I somehow doubt this one is more Japanesey than anything else that supposedly "wouldn't translate well."
  13. Demarco is dying by a thousand cuts from Netflix.
  14. Let the past die. Kill it if you have to.
  15. Jesus fucking Christ
  16. Actually it was a tweet about non-action shows.
  17. If they really plan to just reair Bebop, much less do a marathon of it on April Fool's, it's fucking pathetic. They realize what damage the Rick & Morty marathon did right? Maybe they should concentrate more on stopping the hemorrhaging of viewers instead of doing these stupid stunts. If they really must do something, why not mess with the bumps and packaging, etc? Hell, I'd settle for the mustaches or farts.
  18. I pretty much don't have to watch any of the ASA dead horses again any time soon thanks to how much they were run into the ground, a bad habit Demarco was all too willing to continue. What made things even worse though was when he tried to sell Samurai Champloo as a "premiere" when Fujiko Mine was shockingly unable to pass S&P.
  19. I thought the songs were picked based on what the author was listening to when he wrote those arcs. I am surprised the show moved through time periods as fast as it did. Some eras were skipped over which could have been fun to see. And since the current arc is already in the 80s and I know there's tons more after this, I'm not sure how the series will progress. Future arcs would assuredly take place after the time they were written, and would be beyond even our current "present day" eventually.
  20. Wonder if this has anything to do with that poll he took of what sort of non-action stuff people would like to see on the block. Though he said they weren't doing it, but he was just curious. Block has been stagnant as of late so I hope he means it when he says "new things."
  21. It did happen. http://comicbook.com/anime/2018/03/16/dragon-ball-vegeta-stripper-sexy-anime-saiyan/ That's a TERRIBLE cosplay!
  22. You sure that's not a joke? You posted a pic and not a link, also. Personally, I'd like to see them try to pull it off. That hair. Short, but also intimidating. Well guess I am just talking about someone cosplaying Vegeta in general.
  23. That's right she's blind. The camera on the wheelchair was the hint. Nothing gets past the Major. Bato let his guard down. Poor kid. You're a real piece of shit, Angel's Feathers. So was it Goda that recommended Bato and Motoko? Maybe he wanted them out of the country while he got up to some shit.
