Mobile Suit Gundam IBO Episode #34 Discussion
ben0119 replied to OwlChemist81's topic in Episode Discussion Archive
Another new kid? That guy's name is Hush? Really? Teiwaz is the mafia. They never should have thrown in with them. That character was made just to criticize and disagree with everything Tekkadan does. And now he's acting like even more of a cartoonish asshole. Pretty transparent and one dimensional! -

They went across all those environments to reach the capital? Hmm looks like Attack on Titan's world. -

He says he wants to be Wizard King way too much. Way more than Hokage or Pirate King. Potato juice? Potato flan? That's disgusting. -

This priest really hasn't been developed. Yeah Asta will just come back. That will happen. Explain yourself old man. What does that mean? Leaving for the city? Does that mean no more nun proposals? -

This bit of lore about the demon reminds me of Seven Deadly Sins. No magic? But he has a grimoire... I... *sigh* -

THREE weeks?! What?! -

Gohan is actually showing the sign of results. Hercule got through to Buu. But those idiots screwed it all up. Buu sure is impatient. That's a great plan. Trap Buu in the chamber if need be. Piccolo taking him on a tour of the place. -

Wow. Not even the Saiyans were such efficient exterminators. Chichi you kinda had that coming for being that stupid. -
Dragon Ball Super Episode 44 Discussion
ben0119 replied to Meilag32's topic in Episode Discussion Archive
Even powered up by that weird water stuff, these guys shouldn't be an issue. Energy attacks don't work, really? They are slime monsters now. Hit them and they reform. Energy attacks should still work though. Fake Slime Vegeta? Is that Brian Drummond playing Slime Vegeta?! -

You have room to talk Vegeta about being wrapped around Bulma's finger. -
Dragon Ball Super Episode 44 Discussion
ben0119 replied to Meilag32's topic in Episode Discussion Archive
This show really doesn't know what to do with Goten and Trunks. Trunks is naturally drawn to swords. Monaka went from having giant nipples to small breasts? Why the fuck is there a Crate Creatures ad? Why does Bulma keep ordering crap from space? -
DeMarco deconfirms more shows, admits One Piece bombed.
ben0119 replied to Jman's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
Don't think they were bought in batches since Demarco repeatedly said they couldn't afford to do that. That's not it. The shows have exclusive deals on those streaming services. So, the broadcast rights and streaming rights are considered one in the same, or the fact it has an exclusivity deal means it can't appear on TV. Either way, Toonami can't touch it. I have no clue about any of that. Maybe Sentai simply doesn't have anything in their library they are interested in. We'll see about this Made in Abyss show, I suppose. -

From the beginning they said they were paying for shows by the episode. Don't know if this changed later on. Either way, One Piece wasn't justifying the costs to keep it on the air, clearly. And yeah 150 episodes is not bad. Can't say One Piece didn't get a second chance. Not really sure where you're getting some of this from, especially when there's public information to contradict it. Those shows definitely ARE off-limits due to having exclusivity on certain streaming platforms. That doesn't just mean it can't be on another streaming service. It can't be anywhere else period. It has nothing to do with this Japanese company nonsense you just pulled out of your ass. Now, they probably do have to negotiate with them in some cases to a certain degree, and we know this happened with Gundam. You are right that it's easier to continue a business relationship than make a new one, regardless of who they are working with, American, or Japanese. They perhaps haven't been interested in anything Sentai has as of late, or other shows took precedence. Don't read too much into things. And what is Anime Strike? The Aniplex gap isn't anything to read into either, and I can assure you SAO III is coming! -

Yeah, we already knew One Piece bombed, and Demarco already confirmed that multiple times a long time ago. Pretty obvious that if a show is a Hulu or Netflix exclusive that they can't touch it. Still unfortunate. -
Toonami Will Run A Cowboy Bebop Marathon For Christmas
ben0119 replied to The1gairon's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
Shows what you know. It was one of my favorites. Watched it many times but had my fill eventually. No matter how much you like something you eventually get sick of it. It's wasting time, money, and resources. I'm not going to watch but the fact is I know it is. It's the principle of the thing. And they continue to squander opportunities in favor of continually running Bebop into the ground. 2 year break after over decade nonstop airing ooooo. Just think what else we could have instead of Bebop. Like how a slot was SQUANDERED on Samurai Champloo. So yes Demarco's endless spam-trolling of Bebop ofends me. -
Havent seen it and his stuff doesn't interest me. Butcha hipster arthouse shit. You keep saying "most people" when I'm pretty sure you just mean yourself. And I doubt it will be most anyway. Thing is if it's in the back of my mind it's in my mind. Would be one thing if I could completely put it out of there, but I can't. So with that presence it ruins it for me. I've never gone back and watched Chris Benoit matches. He was excellent at his craft and one of my favorites, but I don't care. He murdered his family. I basically don't think about him at all anymore and he essentially doesn't nor ever existed for me now. If someone brings him up only then do I know of him. So, I probably just won't think about Kenshin anymore, as sad as it is. Was one of my favorites and I never even got to finish it. But I won't be able to purge it from my mind, what the author did, while I try to consume the series. In 30 years people will Google the series or its author and this will be the first thing that comes up. My opinion of the series that it's a classic and a masterpiece doesn't change but I'll never be able to experience it the way I did before. It will always carry this baggage for me.

Update on that story from a while back on that dying fan that sent Kubo a letter of encouragement that stopped him from giving up on continuing the series. He was able to get in touch with the sender, who was a friend of the boy's staying in the same hospital. https://kotaku.com/bleach-manga-creator-and-a-fans-dying-wish-1821249595 Sad but heartwarming and uplifting at the same time.

I'll be interested to see that. Hopefully it gets localized. Hope Kubo is well and has healed up.
