Inuyasha sequel Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon
ben0119 replied to HardcoreHunter's topic in Anime & Manga
Ep 20 - Haha, Towa tried to hug Setsuna but stopped her. "It's ok, I had Miss Shiori." Shiori. I remember her appearing in the original series. So the barrier only works as long as Shiori's powers are active? I thought it was something just put in place. Jaken had Ah-Uhn bring Setsuna to the secret half-demon village. Sesshomaru is a deadbeat dad. Or I guess he has been in the Sacred Tree the whole time so that Rin doesn't go into a permanent sleep. I guess Rin is screwed now since Sesshomaru had to leave the tree to protect the girls from Kirinmaru. I don't know that Rin should have been prioritized over Setsuna though. So, Setsuna has only lost her memories from before the fire. How many people can remember much from age 0-4 anyway, though? Letters being sent. Probably from Jaken?Wow, Setsuna has been training since 4 years old. Cut the wind. Cut the water. Hmm. So Shiori loses her powers during a solar eclipse. Why is Miroku here by himself and didn't bring anyone but Hachi along? So that naginata came from this Gaga Gozen guy. Looks like he is a moth demon. Man that dude got sliced UP. So this is when the seal got put on, and it is tied to the naginata. I didn't expect that. So this means the theory that Setsuna went into a rage in her demon form and killed Miroku's daughter and wasn't able to stop her isn't true. Although I suppose she could have been killed by some random demon that Miroku wasn't able to stop. Although that memorial may not be for one of the twin girls. Who knows who it is for. That is just a plain human weapon. I wasn't expecting that. It's interesting that none of girls' weapons are family heirlooms or specially made for them. Towa's is a broken reproduction sword (I think Towa wouldn't even need this broken sword to create her energy sword,) and Moroha's sword came from Yawaragi. So now we have Setsuna's entire history. But we still weren't told what the scourge of swallows attack is or how it works. *sigh* Next week, Towa has lost her powers again, and Riku is on a "date" with her? Stay away from him, Towa! Why would the rainbow pearls have been born when the Great Dog Demon died? There was no new dub ep this week. I wonder if it got delayed because of the power outages in Texas. I am glad they are over myself. Probably some of the most unpleasant few days in my life. I looked and could not find any statement from Funimation about it.- 102 replies

Damn, I didn't notice these replies until now. The only reason it got delayed was due to the director of photography having mental health issues. It wasn't meant to be split. Lul I bet a lot of people didn't realize SAO was that long, did they? Reki is just an author. A mystery person going by "abec" does the art. But yes, I prefer the anime designs and art style. I would have never predicted that Alice would have a realistic android body, since I thought the two robots on the Ocean Turtle were the peak of this world's technology. I predicted maybe something like a "suit" and then inside the helmet is a hologram of Alice's head. It would fit with the tech we have seen so far and still preserve some of Alice's cuteness. I guess they didn't give those robots humanoid bodies because it wasn't deemed necessary? So that means the only technical limitations for androids was AI and being able to stand up and walk properly? And man, reading that review, a lot is really left out of the anime! I should read the books sometime. It's good to have it confirmed those girls in the spaceships are indeed the descendants of Tiese and Ronie. And it's pretty cool they're called "dragoncraft."

Food Wars S3 Replaces Ass Class on Feb 27
ben0119 replied to PokeNirvash's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
Don't tell me they goofed again. Yeah I don't know and wouldn't have any idea about any of that. Stopping the show mid-way and bringing back another show to replace it is just an odd move period. We've also heard Demarco say a show doesn't have to end (or go on hiatus, in this case) to add other shows. Of course I don't think Food Wars is a big enough deal (if that's a requirement,) to add a slot anyway. Oh, you were talking about Mob here. It sure would be nice to know what the issue is. If you think there is some sort of 2 year limit to it then I guess we might find out soon if that is correct. -
What is Demarco going to do when cable doesn't exist anymore? Hole up in the last Blockbuster in Alaska?

ssss SSSS.Gridman Episode 6 "Contact" Discussion
ben0119 replied to OwlChemist81's topic in Episode Discussion Archive
I didn't know that. I saw something about how if you are visiting Japan, you shouldn't sit on curbs and stuff because people will think you're homeless. Is that how that game works? Oh, you think he is projecting himself out of the monitor like Gridman?- 116 replies

Black Clover's return is DEFINITELY gonna be a disaster
ben0119 replied to mochi's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
It sucked losing power and heat for many hours at a time, for several days (late Sunday through Wednesday afternoon for me,) and I'm sure it affected some dubs too. I noticed there was no new dub for Yashahime this week. Hopefully they will not be too far behind though. I hope the offices weren't damaged by the storm. At any rate, I looked and can't find any statement from Funimation about the storm and outages on their website, Twitter, or Google search. I didn't think you were from Texas. I never knew Sentai was in Texas too. It could have been worse, but it also didn't have to happen at all. https://www.kvue.com/article/news/local/texas/dallas-texas-electrical-power-outage-ercot-failures/287-50797307-0afe-43eb-8175-b78e7e4fc13a -
Landon McDonald is the new Rohan Kishibe
ben0119 replied to 3ngag3's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
This puts the last nail in the coffin. I had argued with some goofs on Twitter that said since Viz never announced they weren't working with Vic anymore, he might still work for them, and could possibly appear in Demon Slayer (LOL.) (This of course ignores the fact that any studio could simply choose not to use Vic anymore, without making any public announcement. A smart move, actually, since it avoids them getting harassed by Vic's fans.) Well, that never happened, and now his last-voiced character has been recast. As we all know he also got blown the fuck out in his lawsuit. It's OVER. I also noticed, thanks to YouTube's lovely recommendations, that some of the terrible people on YouTube that were milking Vic for views are stanning for Gina Carano now. *SIGH* I had those channels set as not interested so I wouldn't see their videos come up, but I guess somehow me watching Star Wars videos (and like, 3, about her firing,) caused these fucktards' videos to resurface. -
I don't understand why they went all happy-go-lucky when they acted so psycho before. I assumed they were going to be arrested and thrown in jail and we'd never see them again. It seems like the author abruptly changed his mind. I never saw either series because I had stopped watching Nickelodeon a good while before they premiered. I was thinking of watching both series some day, but I may not if some of the results end up like that haha. I don't understand why Demarco is switching the shows out like this. There is nothing stopping him from finishing Assassination Classroom so why stop airing it? Bring back Food Wars when this show or another show properly ends. Or don't. I wouldn't miss Food Wars if it never returned lol. I'm not particularly invested in Assassination Classroom either, but still, it's the principle of the thing.

Well at least Mikasa looks like a girl in this picture. And in regular clothes too. I don't think the characters are shown to scale here, but just trying to show each character as large as possible. Jean and Reiner would be taller than that. But it's kind of odd how Levi is shown shorter than everyone else. It's a little late for Christmas lmao. That wasn't as big as a nuke. I don't remember that happening when the Colossal first appeared, and numerous other times. But I could be remembering wrong. And why did Armin deactivate it so fast? What a name, haha. And were there any black people living in the walled cities? Or maybe they met this guy somewhere else? Oh. I'm not sure happened. I'll have to go back and check it.

Who is doing this? If it is American fans I can't imagine the animators understanding or listening to them about it. And I don't think Japanese fans are that crazy. Then again, Japanese fans bullied a young wrestler to the point she committed suicide, over some incident on a reality show. https://asia.nikkei.com/Spotlight/Society/Hana-Kimura-death-Cyberbullying-suspect-faces-possible-charges

Not really sure why it's called the "final season" then lol. If you read in the interview with the production staff DangerMouse posted (you have to click the pics in the tweet to read it,) it was apparently because the production committee wanted the anime out NOW (said in Veruca Salt voice,) and WIT was too busy. If Mappa is cheaper though that is probably another factor going in their favor. I wish we could have continued with the same studio for consistency's sake. The Titans also seem to be CGI more often, if not all the time now, which is disappointing. Right but again, we have been watching the anime this whole time, not the manga. It makes more sense to be consistent with what we are already watching, than suddenly decide to make things "manga accurate" at the end. I remember hearing about that. Is it really true? Also, unless I am misunderstanding, gender unconfirmed just means we don't know what their gender is, not necessarily that they are non-binary, right? It would be the same deal as with Crona from Soul Eater. I never understood the whole union and non union thing. Especially since there seems to have been "impossible" castings and combinations before, or even how all the InuYasha VAs were brought back. Huh, I didn't realize Ashly Burch played Aloy too? Or I forgot. I got a PS4 during the tail end, I loved that game. I beat it and I wrote up a post on it but I don't think I ever posted it!
