Damn it I missed the infiltration. A bunch of brats beat the military, really?! I don't know, less than one percent is more than I'd risk the entire Earth over. Do we even have the rights to this song LOL. THIS ASSHOLE IS BACK NOW OF ALL TIMES?!

New music video. LOL more Shippuden spoilers. They really don't give a shit. I don't much either when it comes to that show, but come on!

Now I'm stuck in the position of one device. We were celebrating my cousin's college graduation today and now we're stuck leaving until a storm passes haha. I'm glad I brought my charger and headphones just in case. I know the block isn't that impressive right now, but still haha.

This is the last episode already?!

Oh ok. Yeah you would hope so. Even if cable is a dinosaur, we have seen streaming oversaturate itself and defeat the original purpose - that of having large libraries and repositories on a select few platforms. With just about everyone wanting their own streaming service, it just keeps splitting the same pie further and further, and you could easily nickel and dime yourself up towards the cost of a cable bill by subscribing to all the services that have some shows you might want to watch. And now we've of course seen some platforms crash and burn, and others start to falter. Although on the other hand, cable's customer service and pricing is so horrible, it's almost like it's purposefully trying to go out of business at this point. So who knows what will happen.

Did Blue Exorcist really have such great production values? I don't remember that. I guess the show was so dull even that didn't leave an impression haha. Oh, it's not even close lol. Yeah it was a pretty disappointing turn that Blue Exorcist took. Felt kind of like a bait and switch.

My mobile Chrome crashed and apparently my post didn't get saved. How annoying. I guess this is what I get for looking up names and dates of things. x_x I guess you weren't a huge fan of InuYasha then. I can forget characters or their names from some shows, but not usually from my favorite shows. So Fate is not like other franchises where it is better to just watch in release date order like everyone who watched from since it started did? That seems more organic to me, especially with how the way movies and shows are made change over time. But, maybe there is a good reason for this suggested order. Oh ok haha. Wow, Fate Zero must be the only anime without any fan service in it besides Attack on Titan. I wasn't sure if I should click the spoiler or not. Maybe it wouldn't matter, if I never ended up watching any Fate stuff anyway. But, I did go and watch some shows on my own that I never expected I would watch, like Haganai, Konosuba, and High School DxD. I decided to go out of my usual wheelhouse for those shows and now I can say I watched them and they're under my anime culture belt. What you posted doesn't seem to be much of a spoiler anyway. Not to me at least. I see. It is hard to tell what is main stuff and what is spin-offs heh. Oh ok. Well, there must be some sort of big appeal to it. Really? Has Crunchyroll really had the rights to Fate all this time? I don't think Crunchyroll was even around when Fate started. According to what I just looked up, the first anime came out in 2006. And it looks like Crunchyroll started in 2006 coincidentally, but it was still a pirated platform until 2009. So, ASA or Toonami should have been able to air the shows at some point, unless they didn't get dubbed until way after the fact.

I was pretty disappointed, because of the concept of the show and how it was promoted by Toonami, I was expecting something more like the tone of Spawn. The main villain is the freaking Devil after all. And it was pretty cool for the first few episodes. ...then it turned into a fucking generic SPECIAL SCHOOL anime. I would never even think to compare Blue Exorcist to Demon Slayer, but my god it blows Blue Exorcist out of the water so bad it isn't even funny. And while Demon Slayer has comedy and silliness ad times, the tone and stuff that happens is definitely fitting of the concept. Hah I never watched the second season of Blue Exorcist, since it didn't exactly impress me much with the first season, even before it got to the filler stuff. The filler was HILARIOUS though.

Well that sucks. I wonder why Crunchyroll doesn't want to cooperate with Toonami. I still haven't watched season 2. But there's really no point in waiting. Maybe I will watch it at some point on my own time, if I remember. I'm still stubbornly holding on to my Funimation Now account. I'm not happy about this merger at all.

Oh, ouch lmao.

Yeah I still don't believe he's dead! Oh ok. Yeah that is understandable.

So, only 3 more weeks. 5 weeks in total ahead. Yeah that won't make much of a difference in the grand scheme of things.

If they are going to those lengths, it makes you wonder why they don't just kill off TBS and TNT entirely and make everyone pay for HBO Max if they want to watch any sports, wrestling, unscripted stuff etc. I wasn't even thinking of that sort of thing bleeding over into Adult Swim. I sure hope not! Mochi pretty ragequit after that Deku pic he posted got all the porn and hentai banned. Those characters were in the lineup promo?

Yep. It is pretty funny how Demarco tries to act all progressive when he's just a corporate bullshitter.

That is good to hear they have some plans. I hope plans included already having some deals in place for shows. Because of stuff isn't already secured... as we know, plans don't always go... to plan.

Not surprising I wouldn't remember something from Gundam Wing, since I don't like that franchise much in general. I remember having an episode that show on for a few seconds. Someone said "LAUNCH THE MOBILE DOLLS!" and I changed the channel. So Demarco is just referencing that, and there's no other meaning behind it?

Is Natalie Rial who plays Shenhua Moneca Rial's sister? That's only the second time I've heard that last name in my life. It looks like I might be right. https://www.behindthevoiceactors.com/Natalie-Rial/ https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/people.php?id=125100 https://animevoiceover.fandom.com/wiki/Natalie_Rial Sisters that are 21 years apart?? So far the only other Toonami role I am seeing for her is a character on Food Wars that I don't remember at all. "Courage?" I don't know any of these other characters.

Haha all that and Ryo wasn't even one of Chen's guys like Charlie thought. Yamagishi watching. Yep Lan Di is not to be taken lightly.

Why was it so hard to find sailors and a Chinese translator in the game? T__T "University huh." LOL Ryo listening and not listening at the same time.

Is giving themselves names like Charlie some kind of gang thing?

Why was the white deer fawn changed to a baby white goat in the anime? White deer are a lot more badass than white goats, plus that is apparently what "Bailu" the name of the village means in Chinese.

Episode 2 coming up! This thread still isn't floated. Sad times haha.

I don't recall exactly what happened in the anime to begin with. Kind of weird this episode recapped it but glossed over it. So Hinata jumped in and interrupted Pain, and got one hit on him? So she basically stalled pain by taking a beating, but she didn't even land a hit in the manga?

So the Hyuugas don't all have black hair?

That episode was a long time ago by now right? But I don't remember exactly how the sequence looked and if this is the same one or not. Doing a rotating shot of her like that was not cheap haha.
