  1. Ziplines, that's brilliant! I said all they needed to do was thrown a line across or make a rope or cloth bridge, but this is even better! Sadly Norman is still not really there. It's like last week when Emma saw him.
  2. How are they going to drag a bunch of toddlers and and babies along? Phil smart enough to figure it out. They'd have to overthrow the whole system to rescue the kids in other houses, and the younger kids at this house. Ah hell Emma is going to do just what I said hahaha. There's that many demons?!
  3. I'm extremely demoralized by MHA's upcoming demotion, and what it might portend for the future, but I'm doing my best to enjoy the block tonight.
  4. Erwin regained consciousness, and refused the shot?! Well look at that, someone that really mattered finally died. Godspeed, Erwin. No sympathy from me, Berthold!
  5. He doesn't remember it. He read about it in those books.
  6. Keep fighting and both them will die you dumbasses. Oh, Hange survived by being pushed into a well.
  7. Can't believe they not only let Beast Titan escape, but fucking Reiner too lmao. But Beast Titan left Berthold there lmao.
  8. Who is more valuable to the war, Erwin or Armin? And how are both still alive?!
  9. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midnight_sun Midnight Sun is the title of the episode. No relation to the Black Clover faction, I'm sure. I knew about the thing of endless sun in the Arctic Circle for years, but never knew it was called this. If such a place exists in this world, then it would surely be far beyond the walls, and would be Titan heaven!
  10. Are those forms for superhero guy legit or just a show? Oh and Vegeta I don't think you can force Ultra Instinct like that. Fighting this fool isn't exactly a desperate situation like Jiren or Kefla.
  11. When did 18 hurt her leg? And can androids even get injured like that? Lol 17 comparing her to a wounded animal. Lol, Krillin dated up for sure, but 18 won't take kindly to that, and Ribrianne has no room to talk about beauty in that ugly form. Now she's Staypuft Marshmallow Man size!
  12. Shouldn't 18 still have the millions from throwing the fight to Hercule? Why are they "scraping by?"
  13. Looks like I am going to have to watch MHA via DVR later. There's still one match left on this AEW Fyter Fest show. Nearly escaped me that it was coming on today. If I hadn't read a Lords of Pain article that mentioned it offhand last night, I would have missed it.
  14. I said that as a joke, referring back to how people used to lose their shit and say Toonami was dying over every littlest thing. But right now? It's not looking good. Do they have any sort of game plan once Super ends?
  15. If this is how they treat My Hero Academia, what the fuck are they going to do once Super ends?
  16. Why did you post the SAO topical? And hey, I guess it is still getting topicals after all! Is CabooseJr just dragging his feet or something?
  17. Food Wars was not the first show I would have picked, but it seems intriguing and amusing at least, from what little I know of it, and I'm willing to give it a chance. But it's hard to be excited with this MHA demotion putting a downer on things, and just watching the block in general.
  18. We got some of the booklets from Nielsen a few years ago. At the time, I made sure to write down everything I watched, and watched the whole Toonami block, even the reruns. Ultimately, we weren't chosen to become a Nielsen family, for whatever reason. I guess we weren't what they were looking for. I do think the system is outdated. You could easily track what every viewer is watching through cable companies, cable boxes, etc, I'm sure. The only issue would be privacy concerns, but people give up way more than that just using the internet, let alone social media, and I think people would jump at the chance to have their views count. But instead we rely on this archaic method. We used to talk a lot about the "schedule monkeys" of ASA, how the schedule would be messed with constantly, seemingly with little to no logic applied to the changes. One of the big pluses about Toonami taking over was this was going to be a thing of the past, and Demarco has even mentioned in the past many times how changing up the schedule too much messes with ratings. And yet they pull crap like this? Honestly they are on their way to being as incompetent as ASA ever was, if they aren't already.
  19. Sounds like Demarco is talking out of both sides of his ass! It's really not a good look to blame the fans like that. I would say Demarco is turning into the Vince McMahon of anime, but even Vince isn't enough of an unthinking asshole to blame fans for declining ratings. It's your responsibility to put on an engaging product to get people to watch. And, if you can't survive because of a changing world, what with streaming and all, then, well, it's survival of the fittest. That again, isn't the fans' fault. Remember when Toonami was the cutting edge thing out there? *shakes head* And if My Hero Academia wasn't doing well enough, isn't demoting it all the way to the end of the block overkill? It definitely comes off as some kind of pettiness over souring relations with Funimation. Which, is really stupid. Cut yourself off from Funimation and you cut yourselves off from the bulk of the available anime. People mentioned that Funimation doesn't promote Toonami airings of their shows at conventions or at social media. Do Funimation voice actors tweet during the airings like the ones for other shows do? This doesn't make Demarco look much better. It wasn't the Toonami crew's call, but he doesn't even know why the decision was made? So, that's either a sign of incompetence, that there's that much of a lack of communication and cohesion at Adult Swim, or he just doesn't give enough of a shit to find out, was I'm sure he could if he wanted to, either way.
  20. So, what you're saying is... TOONAMI IS DYING!
