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!

Alright, I've been watching more episodes here and there. Last sitting was a major binge, and I hated to cut off where I did, but I could no longer maintain consciousness. I'm up to 452!

Oh, I see. I didn't realize they did that. Yeah, I agree with you. Sounds like a good plan!

I didn't realize you were starting the One Piece viewing this soon, or on Saturday. Guess that's what I get for not checking the boards every day! Doing it on Saturday makes sense, though. People already try to set that time aside for Toonami, so it's a great time to do it, and would flow into the rest of the night well. 385 was actually the last episode Toonami showed, which was a great send-off for the show (think it was intentional), but not a bad place to start again, either. Watching 3-4 episodes is a good idea too. The show is long and it's faster to progress that way. If you skip the OP, recap, and WHEN THEY CHART A COURSE AWASH IN DANGER AND INTRIGUE that's like 4 minutes right there shaved off. Not real high on using a chat, though. Any comments will be down the drain. I'd rather discuss on the boards. But, I don't know how that would work if you were using the same screen to watch and to type. Which episodes did you watch? I could re-watch those to set my mind in that place for next week's viewing. Not stopping my binge-a-thon, though, haha. This part of the show is too good! But yeah I don't mind re-watching because then I get to discuss the stuff. Not likely to find any other place interested in discussing the episodes where Toonami left off, as most folks are likely going to be about the current episodes.

Demarco flat refused to air that one. Don't know if it was because of content reasons or because they didn't like the show, though.

I misread this post at first and thought you meant they were playing the 3rd Eva movie. Don't scare me like that!

I don't think Hilda could answer that either, Melfina. Aww, Gene. So sweet. We'll find the answer Melfina! <3 Don't think these cat people are really immortal. She eats like a damn Saiyan. Shot with that electric caster shell. Put it on Aisha's tab, waiter. That bell collar, heh. Nice new paint scheme! Kay Pirates... Ban Pirates... territories... ??? x_x Fred Lowe. Is he some ripoff artist or something?

That's quite a backstory. She interrupted the narrator. That's a good question, Gene. Hilda was the one who knew everything about this mission and the parties involved, and kept it close to vest. What do now? Sounded like he said Milfina. =3 Everybody blushed when Aisha stripped down. There is no moon.

I wouldn't call it over just yet. Needs a wrap-up. MORE FILLER?!
