I saw this on my Google News feed. Never even heard of Your Name before this so I have no idea about this.

SAO was first written in 2002 as a contest entry and published as web novel. Light novels weren't published until '09. Either way, it's obvious you don't know what words mean. You think everything is a "rip-off" or "copy" of everything, as opposed to, you know, recurring tropes. Only thing the two series really have in common is the videogame setting.

He's as one-dimensional as the characters he complains about, lul.

Bulaut still sexually harassed Tatsumi, and you called him homophobic for rejecting it. So you know what the average Japanese person thinks from watching anime.

Regardless of what it was or what it was trying to do, and how poorly it might have pulled it off, Will & Grace was just a bad and chronically unfunny show.

You might want to list name of character and what show they're from, instead of just posting pictures and assuming everyone knows who they are. To comment on a couple of them - Charlotte Cuulhorne's sexuality was never stated. You shouldn't assume things and stereotype, Mochi. =3 The other characters that are stated to be gay/bi or could be presumed to be are portrayed well, in my opinion, as is the trans character. Black, hispanic, etc characters also tend to be drawn and portrayed well. Say what you will about Bleach, but it's pretty good on representation. I already ranted about Ivankov and the Queens in the pinned One Piece thread in the Toonami folder. You can discuss it there if you like. But yeah, they're pretty awful.

Maybe this is a Snape situation?

Oh god don't even say that. Don't even think that! The Candyman watches... and waits.

Good. I was planning to watch Season 2 and pay attention, since it's been forever since I've seen it. Now I don't have to watch it by myself on Hulu or whatever.

I don't think you understand what I'm talking about. I'm simply saying they didn't realize how shitty Tokyo Ghoul is. Yeah, Tokyo Ghoul didn't do bad enough to get pushed way back in the night like GXP, but that just means it was the right kind of shit to do well on Toonami. I mean, it obviously has an audience. Though I wonder how many were watching it to make fun of it, like we were. Yeah, that was ridiculous. At that point, I gave up any hope of them getting the show, and felt stupid for waiting to watch it for years in hopes I could watch it new on Toonami with everyone, and started watching it on my own. I've also given up on the whole idea of "saving shows for Toonami" over the past several months, as it's obvious they can't be counted on to get many in-demand shows of note anymore. They're slaves to those stupid, easily manipulated fan requests, and other silly practices, like putting on a show "they always wanted to air," "gotta have a Gundam!" etc. Blah.

That makes more sense. This is why I don't base anything on anything Mochi says. Same reason I take his "spoilers" with a grain of salt.

Uhh, if anything Panty and Stocking seems to have a Cartoon Network-esque art style.

There, that's better!

I suppose not. Could have sworn someone said that.

Nice!

Good, good. Yeah I don't have a big issue with infodumps, but then I like hearing about lore if I find it interesting, heh. And it is fantasy genre, so...

Maybe. I haven't seen it, so I couldn't say. I do know it was all the rage a few years back and Toonami was being bombarded with requests to air it at that time.

It's obvious that Toonami has managed to gradually get away with more and more stuff in terms of extreme content on the block since it's come back. I think at this point they could probably get by with airing Panty and Stocking - I say with complete speculation having not seen the show. Whether they want to or whether anyone gives a shit at this point, is another story.

I don't know about not liking Fairy Tail, but I remember Demarco remarking on a Pre-Flight episode that he never even watched it before, though Gill had seen some. Given the amount of requests, it seems kind of silly to take such little interest in it. Maybe they were just prioritizing other shows. I mean, it wasn't due to some limit of long-runners we had imagined, as they added HxH and two Dragonball shows. Though I'm not sure why they wouldn't heed those requests but give in to Tokyo Ghoul fans... years after the fact. And I find it hard to sit here and honestly believe that they "like" Tokyo Ghoul. Maybe it's like GXP and they just watched a few episodes without really understanding what it was. The first episode of Tokyo Ghoul is pretty good. Either way, the idea of them not airing shows they don't like is stupid. Should you not air things that don't fit the block? I agree with that. But not airing something your fans want because you don't like it? Come on.

Oh yeah, that's right. He did flat out say they weren't airing it, though, which is unusual.

I see. Good to hear, then. Yeah if I can just watch Fate/Zero by itself, I'll do that.

Is this a Zombie? is currently corrupting and defiling my FuniNow queue. All I can figure is it stayed there from when I created my personal Chiller block via streaming services, as I didn't have the channel, and wanted to watch along with everyone else, and I must have watched that show through Funimation. Though I didn't have the paid account then and that was a long time ago, it's the only explanation I can think of. And how dare you not suffer along with the rest of us!
