All of that played a hand. But notice the recurring theme. Botched Second Month of Movies - full of reruns. AoT rerun started off the block. Real brain trust decision there. ASA dead horses run into the ground until those slots became worthless black holes of audience apathy. NO ONE WAS FORCING THEM TO RUN THOSE SHOWS OVER AND OVER! We know they ran some of them due to their obnoxious fanboyism. No. They still would. Fans remember movies from a year ago, they remember ASA Albatrosses from two years ago. They all need to stay gone for at least ten years, and if they do come back, we need Big O Season 1 and HD remasters with proper aspect ratio for all of them. Well, GitS doesn't really work that late at night, and that's the longest one they have (meaning the longest period of time between seeing the same episode). You kinda' have to be coherent enough to know what the fuck is going on. Something like InuYasha was perfect for that reason, and it's also why I'm suggesting other fairly easily digestible shonens. I do think Space Dandy should get another run, though. Probably don't need too many brain cells for that, if you even have any left after watching the trippy craziness, haha. In fact, Space Dandy is more of an Adult Swim show than lots of the anime they have aired, for sure. Yeah it would be cool. Don't forget the Substitute Arc. Even better than Soul Society, in my opinion. 8)

Everyone else interpreted it the way I did. You didn't because you're a hater, liar, and a troll, and a shitty troll, at that. You're a liar. There's nothing I despise more than liars. From now on, you're dead to me. I'm writing you off as a person. As far as I'm concerned, you're no better than a Truther Creationist Flat Earther Ancient Aliens Theorist.

Or they could run them concurrently like they do with Kai and Super. *twitch* ... Then again, Shippuden doesn't hit things out of the park on Toonami, so why would Boruto? And it's not like everyone has seen these Shippuden episodes a thousand times before like they have DBZ, so SPOILAHS would be more of a problem. Maybe... we'll be saved... at least for a while.

To start us off, we have Kubo's versions of Luffy, Naruto, Orochimaru, and various Dragonball characters. I think Luffy looks pretty cool here. Kubo's slender figures work for Luffy's physique, too. Still don't know how the hell I never heard about this. I lucked into coming across it through the ole Google Rabbit Hole. Naruto looks pretty cool and Orochimaru looks even rapier and creepier, if that were possible. I like Kubo's versions better here, honestly. This was done in Kubo's earlier art style, obviously. Interesting the characters Kubo chose to draw. Piccolo, Vegeta, Trunks, Tao, all great characters. But Zarbon and Recoome, of all people? ;D I mean, they're cool, but... He must like these characters, in any case. I notice none of the Son family are present, LOL. Yeah, he definitely likes Tao. So do I. 8)

Lionsgate Naruto is happening, Kishimoto on board as consultant
ben0119 replied to Jman's topic in Anime & Manga
Also just remembered I like Temari. Who knows if she'll ever be relevant again. Always thought her quad pigtails look was cute and unique. But, at least she is one of the few strong and competent women in the series... -

And as for Orochimaru, he looks like Marilyn Manson, so... -

Did you not read my reply to Mochi? I said the Uchihas, Hyugas, Might Guy, Rock Lee, Shikamaru, and Shino should probably be Asian. And Japanese people are Asian so why would they fetishize an Asian girl like Hinata? -

They better. Sasuke needs to die a slow, painful death. -

So it's going to stay true to the source material? -

Uhh, most of the characters don't look Asian. Uchihas, Hyugas, should probably be Asian. Rock Lee and Might Guy should be Asian, as they're clearly based on Bruce Lee. Shikamaru and Shino, probably. But I mean, Naruto himself has blonde hair and blue eyes... It's sort of like Bleach. Kubo gave all the Soul Reapers Japanese names because of theming (Hollows and Arrancars are Spanish, Fullbring American, Quincies German), yet many of them clearly aren't Japanese. Not sure for Kishimoto's reason. Probably just couldn't or didn't want to think of non-Japanese names, and it is about ninja, so makes sense to use Japanese names. -
Mochi is as one-dimensional as the "stereotypical characters" he complains about. ;D

There's already reality shows about guys in Cuba working on cars. ;D

It may make the Cuban people hunger for FREEEEEEEEDOOOOOOMMM and overthrow their government!

Trinity Blood. The author died. I really liked that show and where it was going, too. Really unfortunate.

I heard Black Lagoon finally came back from hiatus. Whatever happened with that? Finish the series? The arc it's on, at least? Also, lolberzerk. lolhiatusxhiatus.

For Chappy? Yeah, he should look into that. -

So you are supporting and contributing to the comedic and cultural cancer that Tim & Eric bring. -

Oh okay. I was gonna' say... Shippuden needs to be sent to the Shadow Realm. From what I understand, we're on yet another cliff of horrible storyline and quality drop. Let's just see how much further we can get into abyss of terrible! Must not disappoint loyal viewers! Must not throw away episodes! Must air all of Shittuden until the Sun turns into a red giant! IT IS THE TOONAMI WAY!

RIF's Unite!! The InuYasha franchise discussion thread
ben0119 replied to OwlChemist81's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
It's a fine show. Not a bad episode in the whole bunch. Not in the original, at least. InuYasha is a lot better than Hiatus or Shittuden. It doesn't have to be in the 5:00/5:30am slot, either. It'd be cool if they could do a rotation of it with Final Act included. There's always time to grow the audience and introduce InuYasha to new people, even now!
