  1. #toonamisdeathconfirmed
  2. Now why would they get a popular current relevant hit when they could get a shitty show from 2-3 years ago because its fans spammed them?
  3. They used to have these magazines where you could buy merch and DVDs, etc. You could get our whole bedroom decked out. You need a DBZ trash can right? They'd have the voice actors modeling them too. I bet I still have one laying around here somewhere.
  4. A joke by fans or joke in the series? Only in-show Zenigata gay joke I know of was in this series when Rebecca asks if that's his boyfriend when he interrupted their wedding.
  5. I've been having a similar thought. But yeah I'm not sure about that either, lol.
  6. Don't forget the defenders of the manga here in the U.S. I still think they're full of it lol. That Owl nonsense was all in the manga.
  7. Yeah, maybe. Some of it did seem like it went too far to me, though. Then again it's been a while since I've seen the show and it wasn't that memorable. I actually had to look up Tatsumi's name because I didn't remember it...
  8. How can the sex factor be ramped even further than it already is? Hmm, well there is some angst already, but I don't want Kirito to turn into Kaneki. Don't know if they will Americanize everyone or not. I mean it is an MMO so there is nothing saying it has to be all Japanese people, and Agil was American. You know, getting back to all the time skips and whatnot, they could spend a decent amount of time on the guild that Kirito was a member of that got wiped out that made him become a loner, instead of just the ep or 2 they got in the anime. There's boundless possibilities! There was already a decent amount of drama, but plenty of lighthearted stuff too. So yeah hopefully they don't make it too dramatic. But, the writer is basically a Reki fangirl, so how bad it could be?! http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/sword-art-online-japanese-anime-916389 According to Skydance, its potential live-action series will follow "a brilliant young beta tester Kirito and his group of friends when they are trapped — alongside 10,000 other people — in a next-generation virtual reality online role-playing game. The game is a world unto itself: filled with sword fighting, monsters, magic and mystery, where the stakes are life and death. Kirito and an ensemble of diverse characters must fight their way through this hostile environment while making lives for themselves in the fantastical world that is Sword Art Online." As part of Skydance's plan, the company plans to launch an SAO virtual reality experience through the company's interactive arm. “At Skydance we are in the business of world-building and SAO is a massive pop-culture phenomenon from which we plan to launch a full-scale and wide-ranging set of live-action franchise extensions across our business verticals, beginning with television,” Skydance Media CEO Ellison said. “We look forward to working alongside Laeta, Reki Kawahara and the teams at Kadokawa and Aniplex to build out a deeply immersive new universe of SAO in an authentic way that honors its well-established fan base around the globe.” “For years I have been inspired by the inventive and masterful storytelling of the SAO franchise,” Kalogridis said. “I’m thrilled to get the opportunity to work with such talented partners to bring this cutting-edge yet timeless story to a new format at Skydance.” =3
  9. I'm too much of a crack addict to resist. So I'll watch the sub when it comes out, and the dub on Toonami. Probably have a quick turnaround too, like SAO 2 did. And don't be so sure they don't air the GGO spin-off...
  10. I read this last night and was overjoyed! FINALLY! Didn't expect the Gun Gale spin-off, either. That's icing on the cake!
  11. I think he said Netlfix offers double. Pretty fucked up! Not like Toonami is a threat to them or anything. Demarco needs to keep the shows they want more on the down low.
  12. Well, supposedly he does. He's talked about it before. I think the problem more is getting shows he and the crew personally prefers. They like HxH and had been wanting to get that for a while, so when it was available, they pounced on it. They like Gundam even though most nobody else gives a shit about it (maybe during the old Toonami, but not now), so they keep getting Gundam shows. I think the negotiations to end the Gundam embargo may have even taken years and visits to Japan to pull through. And Tokyo Ghoul got tons of requests, so maybe it is popular here. I don't know. I don't seek out Tokyo Ghoul related communities. It had defenders in the Everything Wrong with Tokyo Ghoul video comments, but that doesn't really mean anything, since you'll always find fans of literally anything, no matter how bad it is. But yeah, outside of One Punch Man and Attack on Titan S2, they've really been dropping the ball when it comes to getting the recent, relevant big hits, as of late.
  13. First shot made it look like Kaneki's hair went back to normal. But, it didnt... Maybe it was what you said. Though I don't understand why. Eh, fuck this show.
  14. Thought that was her brother protecting her from the falling rubble. Toka looked up at the telephone pole like someone had just been there.
  15. Not sure the wave comes that fast or that she applies it in every case, or in that one. Either way Suzuka obviously underestimated Gene.
  16. It's cause he caught it. And as you saw there was a power struggle and they were burning out.
  17. I SCRUB MINE WITH STEEL WOOL!
  18. Well, you've got characters like Yoruichi and Motoko too. So there is some variety there. Her shame and embarrassment were her weakness. If she would've been willing and able to fight naked or nearly naked she could have won. She's no Major!
  19. Wooden sword. Chi must be involved. She stopped because she lost her clothes? Lulz Gene dun outsmarted his way out of another pinch again.
  20. They won't see her face but they'll see her ass apparently. Wouldn't landing horizontal makes more sense? "Can't wait til you're 2 or 3 years older." Well that's creepy as fuck. Breathed in Gene's ear. D: Rofl the security guard. Nice battle! Light Shield? Eh? Why would she wait until sunset?
  21. Sakura looking cute there. I wish Iruka had been in the show more as it went on. Why is Hinata hanging back? Aw, that was sweet.
