Because that was the show they were trying to acquire. They didn't try to get the old one because they already aired it, in addition to the whole "too old" issue a good number of viewers have. I'd say it's comparable to how some people won't watch old movies because they're "before their time" or simply because they're black and white. It's stupid but it is what it is.

Timestamps definitely would have helped. Of course there's always the matter of Gundam's special calendar. Well that makes a lot more sense. I don't know if there's some rule about a Gundam having to appear in the first episode of every series, but if so, I think there had to have been a better way to handle it here. I mean, if I'm not mistaken, the battle breaks out in the first episode, so there's some mobile suit action. People would get that at least. Sigh. I dunno.

Don't know about them all never existing. Some probably won't just due to removing Aku from however many years of events he had influence over. The people who exist in either timeline won't remember Jack. Only Jack will remember what he did and the friends he made in the future. So even if Ashi remained there's still that to think about. Though I suppose it was implicit since the opening intro of the original series. Still, nothing says that intro was law. After Aku destroyed all the time portals I figured Jack would beat him in the future and be done with it. This saves everyone and also preserves his good deeds and friendships with them. Ashi would still exist, though I have to admit I never even considered her disappearing until this episode. Thought she would overpower the darkness and that would be the end of it, not gain Aku's powers and make a new portal. This ending would still be bittersweet since Jack would never see his family or people again and be "stranded" in the future, but I think it wouldn't be too bad. But, I suppose the ending we saw tonight is what Genndy had envisioned.

Hmm. I can take it or leave it. The first episode or 2 implied something like Ghostrider but we ended up with a SCHOOL anime with slice of life stuff. But, as generic as it was and giving a false first impression, I didn't hate it. The show was decent enough for what it was. And people said the manga content the anime didn't cover was supposed to be pretty good, so I was curious about this. Wouldn't have been a bad get for Toonami. We do have the Hulu subscription though so maybe I'll watch that.

Are you fucking serious?! Did they learn nothing from rerunning Attack on Titan at the start of the block?! Besides the fact that the potential ratings collapse could lead the block getting even more downsized, it's a fucking waste! You add an extra slot and then as soon as Jack ends you just fucking rerun it instead of putting something new there? IT'S FUCKING BULLSHIT!

Ah, cool. I enjoyed watching the old Lupin series on Adult Swim. It was fun and upbeat. -

Forgot to mention this. Was that really Eren's first ODM kill? I need a gif Christa rolling down that hill. -

Christa is cute and sweet which is probably why people like her. Yeah she had some good scenes in season 1. Was Christa the girl the Priest directed everyone to? Can't remember. Because if it was Ymir then that's a bust now. -

Oh so he used his vortex sharing an to block the nail. Are we really supposed to feel sad about Choji's dad that barely appeared? I mean Choji is cool but come on. Yeah Kakashi is not dead. Please. What was the point of causing more destruction Tsunade? It ends like that really? -

Do most people even care that much about either Ymir or Christa? I mean come on. Mysteries which were just introduced and barely matter at all compared to the major stuff. -

Well, the idea was that they're REALLY light for their size. Explains the speed and agility of the unique Titans I guess. -

HYPOCRITICAL HETEROPHOBE!!!!!! :D :D By the way, there's no proof this show is a metaphor for gay people. You're making it that so you have something to cry about. -

Tokyo Ghoul episode 8 "Circular" discussion
ben0119 replied to mochi's topic in Episode Discussion Archive
It's mommy. Well, what's left of her. The show is really bludgeoning us over the head here. Subtlety is not its forte. Sorry but I can't take that mask seriously. Kaniki thinks he can make peace because he's half and half. Good luck with that. Now the little girl is fighting. She has a combo of both Kagunes. Cool. Big eye guy is dead. Thought for sure this show would milk more mileage out of his evilness. Again really lazy way to make us sympathize with the ghouls. He has a wedding ring. So? Oh hey it's that guy they showed for like 2 minutes. Why the hell does Amon care about the big eye guy?
