Why the hell is Demarco changing this out to bring Food Wars back? I'm not super invested in either show, but at least in this show characters are in actual mortal danger. The fan service aspect of Food Wars was extremely overblown. It is basically just Yugioh with food. I can't see anything too earth shattering happening in it.

Not just the issues with transitions, but the pacing of the arcs was odd too, and the show in general. We had just barely been introduced to the world when then we started that arc where Company 8 fights Hibana's Company. It seemed way too early for infighting. But then that arc which felt like it could have gone on for a while ends very quickly as Company 8 runs through Hibana's Company fairly easily, and Shinra manages to convert Hibana to an ally with ONE PUNCH. And let's not forget how fast the stuff with Rekka was. He turns on them so fast and then the thing with his relationship with Tamaki is shown after the fact, his betrayal doesn't have a lot of impact that way. Then we have Lucky Lecher Lure in the middle of the fight. That was just poorly done all around. Then after that the show got into a good groove, ever since Benimaru and his company were introduced. But then things just got SILLY with Sho and Shinra's powers and then the "explanations" for them. Then there is a lady who can heal people by setting them on fire, the explanation is her ability takes the form of the medical snake symbol thingy. Ok. But with everything that has happened since then, I have realized I should just treat the stuff in this show like it is basically magic and not try to think about the "explanations" too much, and roll with it. I'm pretty sure Neil Degrasse Tyson or Michio Kaku would have aneurysms if they watched this show. So we had a good intro followed by two wonky rushed arcs followed by a decent momentum for the rest of the first season, and realization the show was giving up on being grounded, or never had any such aspirations to begin with. In any case, the fights, and the new characters intros and world building have been pretty good in season 2. And yeah with talking immortal animals and whatnot things have gotten ever more wacky. x_x

https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2018-11-16/aniplex-usa-announces-sword-art-online-alternative-gun-gale-online-english-dub-cast/.139550 This is the article I found. It was on Hulu and Netflix. That doesn't sound like exclusivity to me. So it might be easier for Toonami to get GGO than we thought. I still haven't seen the dub yet, so if Toonami were to show it, that would be new to me at least. I also haven't seen it since it first premiered so it wouldn't be like I just saw it or anything.

Yes that Titan's head was about half way up and it looked like one of the normal Titans to me. Yes the Colossal was one of the 9. I don't get why there would be millions of them. Well it was Tyber that was saying this and I'm not sure we can take his word as gospel lol. I don't suppose anybody did a recap on this? Lots of episodes and I don't really want to re-watch them all. But I can't just do a search since I will also run afoul of spoilers that way.

Well that makes a lot more sense lol. But the show's title isn't even grammatically correct. Doesn't no in Japanese mean of? So the title should be Attack of Titan, or maybe Attack of the Titans, would make the most sense, given the premise. But maybe not, if the show is meant to be named after the Attack Titan itself. It was also because of this title and me skimming over what I thought was a synopsis for the series that made me think this was a sci-fi space series when I first heard about it. I remember reading about military uniforms and "Attack on Titan" made me think there is some space colony on the moon of Saturn called Titan that gets attacked. The thing I read said there would be some reveal that the series really takes place on a Dyson Sphere. I now know that must be bullshit and I have no idea what I read and can't find it back now whenever I look. It was probably some fan theory I read. I don't think this show is going to go that far down the rabbit hole of TWISTS lol. It's convoluted enough as it is!

I never really thought that the walls had to be as tall as the Titans inside. I guess I never really thought about it before. They could be stacked on top each other, with some sort of internal structure holding the the second layer up. Plus the time we saw part of the wall damaged and saw a Titan inside, it was one of the regular ones. Yeah that was the big deal about the Colossol Titan is he was actually taller than the walls.

For some odd reason Kirito is shown with his plain clothes in the book. I think the shot of Kirito in his full swordsman duds for the anime was much better. I do prefer the anime's art style as well.
