Tezuka was hot. I'd post a picture but I forgot Photobucket is ass and I don't feel like uploading it somewhere else or linking a rando from Google.

It's been a while since I included these boards in my bored-at-work rotation, so I just now saw this. I was doing fine until about halfway through the thread. Probably shouldn't have kept reading but I wanted to find out what was going on. I want it to be 5:00 so I can go home and properly cry.

I am like super offended by that sick insult.

We never sold our animals. Probably because it doesn't make as much sense with dairy as it would with things that are raised specifically to be eaten. I wonder if the kids are like "well what am I supposed to do with this thing now?"

I miss the fair. Someday I'll visit home in the summer instead of at Christmas and hopefully we can go see the cow show at my old stomping grounds.

Maaaaaybe? Unfortunately BONES guy didn't mention that little detail. Oh hey I could ask Dai Sato when I see him at AnimeFest. I wonder if he would actually tell me. Probably not.

From what I've heard (mostly con promotional announcements), the first movie will tell the story of the First Summer of Love (backstory to the series), the second movie will be mostly retelling from the series, and there will be a new ending in the third movie.

So have you considered aiming older?

I read that as "I could hit on him." It was momentarily nice to see you expanding your age range tolerances.

I saw the thread title and was going to come post a certain screencap, and then I see the first post. So I'll just post this instead. *shakes fist at Photobucket for failing at life*

I'm always disappointed that these aren't Jojo threads. But thank you for trying, Top Gun.

Well Kazuya is fun with his reckless fire and his big punchy arm, but Heihachi was one of the few likable people in Samurai 7. I'd give the edge to Kazuya for being in the better show and being tangentially related to Straight Cougar.

So you're jacking our login info from here and creating new accounts for us over there whether we want them or not, or what?

Fierce.

Whoop whoop thanks Luuv. I mean thAnXx LuuRRRVE!!1!111!!!111

Wait we're doing custom ranks? For errybody? I would like Empress of Fangurlz. Hex code #ff0066.

I wouldn't call it cringeworthy, I just noticed kind of a chuckle from the audience when the "your Japanese is very good" line came out. If anything it's just a reminder that Jotaro's mom isn't Japanese. I hadn't seen the Attack on Titan schedule news. They aired the new episode Saturday morning and it's pretty intense. It's good to know that I can just wait a few weeks and not have to make a point to watch it on my own.

It's been a while since I saw the test dub premiere at ACEN, but I didn't pick up on anything that seemed different to me. Unfortunately it was hard for me to tell if the narrator's voice was the same, since it wasn't that far off from what we've been hearing from David Vincent in the first season and I don't remember exactly what it sounded like in the test dub before. If I had to go one way or the other, I'd say it was still the original test dub narrator. Since they hadn't put the finishing touches on episode 5 yet, though, they could still be planning to do some touch-ups on the earlier episodes. This actually relates to kind of a funny moment in the dub, where a Japanese guy compliments Jotaro's (American) mom on how good her Japanese is, and she replies that she's been living in Japan for 20 years. It's a little "wait, what?" when the whole thing is in English with no accents, but you just have to take it for what it is knowing that the characters are (mostly) Japanese and the story (at that point) takes place in Japan.

That could be. He's always been a guy that I saw on cast lists for things but never really put a voice to the name.

There was a short trailer-type video for Diamond is Unbreakable. It was pretty rad, more of a style thing than just a collection of clips from the show. They also showed a clip from the dub of episode 5 of Stardust Crusaders, which they said was not necessarily the finished cut. I didn't recognize Polnareff's VA, but Epcar and Mercer are definitely still in their roles from the test dub, and Avdol sounded like the same guy too. Polnareff didn't have a French accent, but he did say "Monsieur." I don't recall anybody else having any particular accents. At Director Tsuda's panel he was asked about prospects for animating part 5, and it sounded like nothing had been confirmed by the suits yet, but he definitely wants to do the project. Later on in the weekend they aired the Stardust Crusaders test dub, which was their special "East Coast premiere" event thing. Nothing new there, but it was fun to see again.

All three of them are going to be involved in at least one Jojo panel, as I indicated in my first post. (I'm not sure where you got the idea of him being recast in Stardust Crusaders.) The news blurb doesn't specify which guests are going to be involved with the episode screening, but I'd expect the director at the very least and possibly Johnny and Seitz even if they're not in the episodes they're showing.

No, aside from the fact that he played Jonathan, he has nothing to do with Jojo.

No. He and Seitz are going to be guests at Anime Boston, along with Jojo's Japanese director.

I was just looking at this. It does say "East Coast premiere," which could mean it's the same episodes that premiere-premiered at ACEN. But since all they say is "special episodes," it's hard to tell. It could just be the next few episodes of the Battle Tendency dub for all I know. But with the Japanese director there (and Johnny Yong Bosch and Patrick Seitz) it should be fun either way.

I came in here to post that but you beat me to it.
