I do enjoy how many adult characters are super bangable in this show. It's the gift that keeps on giving. Hero- Iida quit being a little bitch and turn this into a 3-vs-1 fight. Tiny Iida, still a robot. His brother is really freaking cute, this may have been my fault. Meanwhile your friends are trying super hard not to get stabbed. Hey there, nice of you to join the party. Can Iida even see without his glasses? Shut up douchebag you don't even have a nose. Those pros sure are taking their sweet damn time showing up. Iida sure is getting stabbed a whole bunch. Aw crap did Deku break his leg again? I love my boys. Y'all should probably take his knives before he gets back up. Oh right, the pros are busy with the monsters. HI GARBAGE DAD. I love Granpa. God, I shouldn't be so into this. Fuck me you, garbage dad. I know he's the absolute fucking worst but I can still enjoy him as a sex object right? Thanks for the assist, Icy Hot. Okay y'all are definitely gonna wanna tie him up before he wakes up. God, I'm gonna fuck that. In my defense, it's everyone else's fault for believing I had standards when Seitz is throwing his best sexy douche voice at me. Catch me in your beefy dilf arms next, garbage dad. Oh hey, Village People's okay. Hi Granpa! Nice timing, everyone else. You might wanna tie him up with something stronger. Iida's gonna need new arms. Someone please hug Iida. GODDAMN CHUPACABRA. Aw fuck he's awake. Thanks, lunatic serial killer? GO AWAY, FUCKHANDS. Hey there, sexy trash. He could save us all a lot of trouble if he just kills Endeavor here. Oh christ his face. Even Garbage Dilf is unnerved. Did...did he die? Now everyone go rinse the terror pee out of your pants. Mob- Hey, Slimer. Calm down, y'all. Yes good beat the shit out of it. "Friend" is an exaggeration here. Ritzu knows better than to trust him. Ohhh this is a bad idea. DON'T DO IT KID IT'S A TRAP. And now Okuyasu's here. No leave Okuyasu alone. Wow what a douche. This is why I can't be trusted in a position of power. You're wasting so many spoons. Slimer, slimer is what's gotten into him. Ritzu no, don't fall into the dark side. Oh god his hair. Well hey, he's become much less of an asshole. Now that's a handshake. Mob no don't trust this lady. I could use a Vase of Happiness. Lady he's like 14 you really think he's got money? Poor Mob. THANK YOU REIGEN. He's really growing on me. Okay I kinda love this asshole now. Yes, con artists are terrible. I love Man Club Seitz. Diiiiiiiick. Mob come get your brother. I'm glad he got beat up. MOB COME GET YOUR BROTHER. Ohhh this looks ominous. Oh no this is gonna hurt my heart. Boxing- It's gonna be awesome if he wins this fight. Junk Dog's really cute and that does not bode well for him. Well that just takes all the fun out of the fight. Owwwww. Well the important thing is you tried. You are gonna get your pretty face punched apart. And then the OP was wolves. Is aiming for his dick an option? You got him to use his other arm and now you're going to break your hands, I know how this goes. Oh that looks like it hurts. Well hey you almost survived the round and that's nothing to be ashamed of. Sweetie your face is bleeding just go sit down. That's gonna be juuuust a little difficult, buddy. If you wreck that bike again your mechanic is gonna beat your ass. Hi doggie. Oh yeah I'm sure you're never gonna see that guy again. Oh they're fucking. This is good music. Hey grandpa can you get me a fake ID? You can reach the Elite Four, I believe in you. KICK HIS ASS, JUNK DOG. Aw shit he's going off scrpit. Ohh those suit guys are angry. Ohhhhhhhhh this is not gonna be good. That soup is definitely made of people. You can't fool me with your fond talk I watch Binging With Babish too. Oh FUCK you're gonna need your eye. You're a good dude after all, eyepatch man. Junk Dog you're on thin fucking ice here. Do I sense a training montage on the horizon? Thank god for this convenient dead guy. Andd then he was a Jojo. You better goddamn win this, honey. Jojo- Jotaro doesn't seem like the kind of dude who likes hunting. You're adorable, Josuke. RAT STAND. I love Star Platinum and his fancy white colorscheme. Don't worry Josuke I also can't concentrate around good balls. This is Jotaro being comforting. Jotaro knows a surprising amount about rats. Oh this is probably not a good thing. RAT CUBE. Ewwww. I don't think you wanna go in that house. Josuke haven't you ever seen Bebop don't open that fridge. STAND RAT AHOY. Ohhhh that's nasty. I really hope Josuke can fix these random old people. Aw crap you didn't kill it. GUN RAT. Okay this entire concept is kinda fucking hilarious. You're gonna wanna dodge that. Alright now chop its head off just to be safe. Oh FUCK there's another rat. Ewwwwwww his hand. Jotaro you can freeze time how did you get hit? Alright now help those old people in the fridge. Jotaro you're being kinda weirdly casual about this whole thing. No pressure here, Josuke. Okay I'd rather run through the dank pond with my shoes on. I want an entire nature documentary from this narrator. Josuke you dumbass. Oh hey, Jotaro remembered he can freeze time. How does Jotaro's hat even work? Oh this sounds like a bad idea. Ohhh that's nasty. Jotaro you're losing to a rat with a gun, that's even worse than losing to Hol Horse. I like how Jotaro's mom didn't have a strong enough spirit to handle a stand and yet we've seen multiple babies and now GUN RATS who take it like a champ. Clover- FINALLY something I can jack off to. Fuck off furry I got first dips on putting my mouth on him. Those 30 seconds were better than the past dozen episodes. God I hate everyone else. I do enjoy him not giving two shits about their praise. Now give them the magic jewel or whatever the fuck it was so we can wrap this shit up. I'm gonna have a fucking aneurism. Kill him, Yami. Oh hey it's the bird. Take all their booze too for good measure. Hey old dude maybe if you didn't make them play some shitty game for your own amusement we could get the hel out of here already. Oh this girl is already getting annoying. Titties. God, I hate you all. Why couldn't Asta be the one who got his vocal cords ripped out. It's hard to root for the character whose dream is just to become a fame whore. I'm sure this is supposed to be an emotionanl moment but I feel nothing, show. Oh fucking christ here we go. Bird's had enough of this shit. You should probably behead him just to be safe. No, your obnoxious screaming gave you away. You're wasting your time show you're not getting any sympathy here. Just leave him here. I wonder what the less terrible character is doing. STOP SCREAMING YOU DIPSHIT. Enough of this shit, please. Oh fucking hell it's a group singalong just kill me now. Well that was excruciating. Hunter- I don't like your odds here, old man. I don't know enough about chess to understand this metaphor. Final battle, only battle, same thing. Someone hug that octopus. Can someone kill the creepy old guy already? Maybe if you hadn't been blubblering like a baby you'd have noticed what was up. Aw crap it's torpedo wolf. Can we get this guy some therapy after this? Oh god whatever you do don't answer him. Eww what the fuck. Oh christ it's centipedes I'd rather just die. What, they'll make him watch Black Clover? Damn my dude is hardcore. Oh god they're bursting through his skin I'd like to get off this ride now. Take the centipedes out of his skull now. You suck, torpedo wolf. Well you better figure out a way to deactivate it right goddamn now. Shoot him again just for his clownshit. I bet if you kill him they'll go away. Make him cry like a bitch and his bugs will probably die. Oh that's depressing. Oh shit, they used to be brothers. Huh, I guess therapy solved that problem. Now shoot all his limbs off. Aw crap, Palm's fucked. A strange moral lesson for us today. She's hatching. Huh, she looks better as an ant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoleyisGood149 Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 I'm disappointed that the block is losing the two prime time hours, but shifting the end to an hour later means we're only losing the reruns of DBZK and Jack, the latter of which has been plunked into the 8:30 P.M. Eastern weekday (at least) slot, so that will be available for those that want to continue watching it. I might watch some select episodes of MSG: IBO 2, which I know was already airing before the lineup changes, but I haven't decided whether I'll comment on any of those. I watched several of these a day or two after they aired, and thus can't remember what happened very well. Also, I watched my backlog of JoJo episodes. There were nine of them, so to keep the comments from blurring into each other, I numbered them from 1 to 9. They're also going to be their own post. Poke: MHA spoiler - Spoiler From what I've seen, Toga's cute and the fun kind of stabby crazy, but I meant something involving Midnight. MHA - It was good to see Iida realize the error in his way of thinking. Surely there will be other times in his professional career when he must put his feelings aside and act with professional detachment. He may have failed that part of this field test of his heroic mettle, but he has time to learn and grow, because he didn't die today. I knew the panel of Iida and Izuku simultaneously hitting Stain would be a sight to behold in the anime, and it didn't disappoint. The thing to remember, though, is that while Izuku's Smash was enough to knock out Stain so he could be restrained, it was the internal injuries from Iida's kick which truly took Stain out of the fight. Wow, Stain was tenacious, and he was brutal against the Nomu that grabbed Izuku. I feel like the anime played up everyone being intimidated by Stain's ferocity a bit, but it helped make for a gripping scene. I think the grotesque nature of Stain's facial scarring was toned down for the anime. Spoiler: Spoiler In an after-chapter sketch and info spot for one of the chapters covered here or soon after it, the author dropped a hint about the bad guys relative to the Nomu Stain killed. Izuku or someone had wondered why it, a nearly mindless creature, went after him (Izuku), and the author asked us if we remembered the kid with wings back when Bakugo and Izuku were kindergartners. That means Stain did kill a teenage kid here, and not only that, but one not truly in control of his actions. I feel like Iida's multiple blade wounds might be beyond Recovery Girl's capabilities alone. Then there are also the facts that 1. he's far from the campus (presumably, since he's in another city), and 2. he still would've suffered notable blood loss. He should be a while getting back into action after this. Endeavor may be a garbage person, but I can't deny his skills with his Quirk. I think him melting footholds into the concrete side of a building so he could run on it was anime-only, but it sure was impressive. Shippuden - In Naruto's clone dream, I can believe that certain aspects of his personality would manifest in each clone, but that got outright slasher at the end. It's a strange way to depict an existential crisis. Boruto - I don't remember what happened pretty much at all. I think there was something about a person in a mask controlling the Ghost, and Mitsuki allowed her or him to escape, but that's it. Oh, wait. The boss at the post office was possessed and trashed the place before the Ghost was exorcised from him. I actually did record and watch two episodes of the Boruto marathon, and they were both for the same reasons: 1. it was fun to see Hiashi as a doting grandfather, and 2. Hinabi is a pretty lady. Maybe she's not as beautiful as her sister, but she's still easy on the eyes. (There's a Hyuga joke in there somewhere, but I feel like it would be trying too hard to make it.) Speaking of eyes, it occurred to me in the rewatch that Sarada wears eyeglasses. You know, the same Sarada who is the only example (of which we know) of the Uchiha bloodline in the next generation. Yes, the same Uchihas which are/were famous/feared for their powerful visual justu and prowess. That heir wears eyeglasses. Sure, it could be a fake out like Eri Ninamori, but I don't think Kishimoto would put that much effort or thought into trolling the audience/readers. DBS - The planet which descended into anarchy is precisely why "reputable" sources and news outlets would not disclose an approaching globally-catastrophic impactor's existence or that of an approaching hostile alien invasion force. The breakdown of social order would make preparations for the cataclysm's occurrence or aftermath much more difficult. Buu fell asleep, and presumably chocolate isn't waking him like when Mr. Satan needed to rouse him for the exhibition match. My channel guide indicated that we would have new episodes of everything last weekend, but when I checked the first episode recording in-progress (supposedly for MHA), it was the Super episode where Goku recruited Gohan for the team, so I cancelled all the other recordings. I will say that it would take parents of tremendous capabilities, like Gohan and Videl, to care for a baby that could fly at-will. Hm, it just occurred to me that they'll need to encourage her not to fly so she can develop proper core strength and other motor skills through crawling and eventually walking. MP 100 - Looking a the cast page on MAL, it struck me as strange that Max Mittelman (Saitama) voices Ritsu instead of Mob. Yes, they're different shows, so there's no reason he'd voice the protagonist here as well, but it's still odd to me. I thought it was interesting that Dimple can enter Ritsu, but can't control his body due to Ritsu's level of power. However, Ritsu is going down a dangerous path to be even worse than Teruki was. I'll admit that Teruki tried to convince Ritsu to rethink what he was doing through words and a display of power, but it seemed to backfire. At least the council president was convinced of the error of his ways, but I feel bad for Mob and Ritsu (mostly Mob, though) that Mob is going to have to convince his younger brother that what he's doing with his powers is wrong. Reigen sure played those con artists well with his counter-cons, but I'd find it funny if he actually did manage to lift a possessing spirit from the client and transfer it to these jerks. I feel like ONE picked the names for these schools from either a takeout menu or a cookbook recipe page. Plus, the gang leader from Miso was tall. We're talking All Might tall, or maybe taller.

FoleyisGood149 Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 MB - Just the first episode for now. I'll admit that I've never watched the Hugh Jackman movie Real Steel, but what I can recall of the premise there seems remarkably similar to what we have here, only they add the peril Lee Marvin's character chose in the episode Steel from The Twilight Zone of putting the human in the ring to get demolished instead of having robots duke it out. I like Jnk's confidence and scrappiness, but he seems to have a huge chip on his shoulder. I'm not saying that attitude isn't justified by his life experiences, but I feel like it'll bite him several times in the show. As for the sport itself, yeah, it strikes me as taking boxing and making it even more dangerous. Looking at Jnk's rig, I think that it would have both pneumatic and hydraulic pistons. The pneumatic would be for quick motions, and the hydraulic would be engaged for blocking. There are obviously trans-dermal sensors which quickly process the motions of the boxers into commands for the pistons to accentuate the power of the motions (unless there's a part of the rig in the back that actually taps into the spinal cord itself and processes part of that electrical input). Still, there's no armor to protect the boxers other than on their arms. It's a sport that prominently features attacks to the face and head, and there's no armor for the head when, as judged by the sparks, the gloves are now sheathed in metal to protect the boxers' fists from hitting the armor on the arms. Any punch is like getting hit with brass knuckles or a fist with a bunch of rings on it. That's plain savage. I can see why Jnk thinks of it as nothing more than a brawl, and especially when he's forced to keep taking dives. You'd have people with Rocky's cranial and neurological damage in the first two years of their careers, if not sooner. Okay, I'm willing to grant that Jnk may not have seen the sign about the construction ahead because of the rain, and thus he'd have no reason to suspect there'd be a person. let alone two, standing in the middle of the highway. In that case, I can understand him blaming the woman for his crash (though I guess he actually should thank her for causing him to stop before he crashed into a barricade). However, he really should've seen a person in white sooner than that. Also, what kind of crappy signage protocols do they have in Japan that one warning of the road being closed is deemed enough? On interstates here, which are multi-lane, divided highways, like we saw in the episode, we usually get 1 mile, half-mile, 1000 feet and 500 feet warnings to construction-related lane closures, and this was the whole highway! Where were the signs saying all non-construction traffic must exit? That's a failure of protocol to me. Anyway, I can understand him rejecting her offer of "charity," which see probably saw as an effort to avoid bad publicity and civil litigation. I can get his attitude rubbing Yuri the wrong way to the point he'd pay off some local fighter to get his spot in this match, but I doubt his boss would like him taking out the cutting-edge model in public before the tournament begins. I like the repair guy. He strikes me as a more affable version of Doohan. I smiled when he said he felt sorry for the bike. I caught that wrinkle about the tournament; all citizens may enter. Citizens of where, exactly? If it's a global tournament, then I would presume that we're dealing with a one-world government. In that case, how can there be people who aren't citizens? If we are dealing with a world of many nations, then we may be looking at a future where several nations have a mass-refugee crisis with millions of non-citizen resident aliens. I would like to know more about why some people aren't citizens, show. Who issues original identification documents, and why do some people, like Jnk, not have them? Speculation about Jnk's past: He was born with citizenship documentation, but a down-and-out parent sold it when he was a small child to provide for him. Now all he has is his ring name, Jnk Dog, but I suspect that Jnk is either a vowel-less shortening of his name or his initials. We'll see if that bears out, or whether we learn anything on that front at all. BC - While it was nice to see Vanessa actually do things relevant to the plot, and I'll admit her outfit is fanservice-y, it was also good to see her return to her more typical underwear attire. I very much enjoyed Yami's way of telling Asta not to overthink things regarding a dead opponent's mindset and motivations, because Asta is a (loud) idiot. So, they got the magic stone and a good send-off from grateful citizens. I feel like magic healing for a crushed larynx would take less time than regenerating a leg severed below the knee, which that guy should consider himself very lucky that it didn't make him bleed out. HxH - Ikalgo was reckless with his life, but it scared Welfin into somehow undoing his implanted parasites. Welfin's power strikes me as incredibly misleading - it looks like an explosive attack, but the missiles are just the delivery system for the parasites. I'll acknowledge the creativity it took to concoct that power. The humans on which the King and Welfin were based were brothers. Fine. It's a strange way to think of it, but the King's base dude came out on the winning end there. Plus, I'll disagree with Ang on what we presume to be Palm's C.A. form, because going-on-a-date!Palm was mighty pretty. PTE - I'd never heard that 100 hiccup superstition before seeing this episode the first time. Though Bob Epic Pipimi and Popuko may have been wrong, wearing mirrored shades does make the wearer suspect. I still don't understand how A.I.!Pipimi could absorb ghost!Pipimi. What part of "stop" didn't chef Pipimi understand? Maybe she was thinking of Murata and/or Yano again. Lupin - I still haven't watched the last three episodes, but I think I will before I post about the second MB episode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoleyisGood149 Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 JoJo: Diamond - 1: Hair betch is crazy, yos. I sure hope Koichi knows the top piece of relationship advice any male could ever know - you do not put your dick in crazy. Regarding her Stand, I'm not sure how she could extend or regrow her hair as quickly as we saw. It's a physical part of her body. I can buy it moving at her will through the energy of her Stand, but growing more at high speed is a cellular process that would need to be accelerated dozens, if not hundreds, of times. As to trying to burn green uniform girl's hair, for the hair to catch fire like that would require one or both of the girls to use excessive amounts of flammable product. My hair is oily, and I've burned trimmings of it before, and it did nothing like what we saw in the episode. Hair can burn, but to produce the huge flames we saw there would take the presence of something more than only hair. 2: Reverb's metamorphosis looked like it was influenced by Cell's development. The lasting sound effects are a neat power-up, though. Koichi is a good kid who deserves a nice girl who won't try to murder him. He also deserves a better haircut than Jean had. Yes, I understand Koichi did it to sever the chick's implanted hairs, but I'm not a fan of the new look. Cape Boing sounds a little suggestive. 3: The effects of Tonio's cooking, with its Stand-powered tomatoes, were astonishing (re-growing teeth in seconds whaaat??) , but not as amazing as Okayasu hamming it up. I'm not sure, but I think what Tonio did when looking at Okayasu's hands would be classified as palmistry. Tonio had a point. He must maintain a clean kitchen for the health of his customers. How exactly that would happen with the blood and entrails spewing from the dog and Okayasu in that side room and the kitchen, respectively, is beyond me. Sucks for Josuke that he got roped into cleaning that mess for being in the wrong place at the wrong time. It was refreshing to see a Stand user who used his power for the benefit of others without having to be set right by a Joestar first or being an associate of a Joestar. 4: I will agree that the juice in a 12V motorcycle battery wouldn't sustain Chili Pepper's offensive capabilities for very long, but the buried power lines were too convenient for the enemy. Chili Pepper was right that Jotaro would, if he knew where his user's body was, would just attack his less capable physical form. I'm not so sure about how S.D. recovered Okayasu. Yes, the rest of his body was there when his arm was severed, but what, other than that timeline fact, would prevent his arm, the smaller portion of his anatomy, from going into the power line to reconnect to wherever his body was? This seemed a little too convenient for our heroes here. Ms. Higashikata has great parenting skills for use on her teenage son. 5: Chili Pepper's user looked older than 19 to me, but eh. The guitar strikes me as too inconvenient to carry all the time, and I call shenanigans on him fixing his broken finger through the grip strength of it alone. Josuke should've taken a page from Jotaro's playbook and attacked the user directly even after the broken finger didn't stop him. The problem I saw with encasing Chili Pepper in the tire was that the wheel itself, which Chili Pepper could touch, was a metal. It would've been easy enough for Chili Pepper to arc out of the tire that way. The voices for Chili Pepper and its user were close enough, which has been seen before in the show with Jotaro and S.P., that Okayasu should've been able to determine who was the user between the user and the actual Speedwagon Foundation employee. We've been shown that Okayasu is on the dumb side, but he really should've noticed it. Wait. What was with the drop of blood after Joseph removed his mechanical hand? Joseph's dying of something, isn't he? Given that it would've taken around 6 decades in the show for it to take effect, I'm not willing to attribute this to Ang's curse, and especially not since the curse already claimed someone else (Avdol) from the show who was her next boyfriend after young Joseph. 6. In other words, the invisible baby owes her life to Joseph's worsening senility, because without him getting on the wrong bus, she likely wouldn't have been found, and being at a roadside like that, she very easily could've crawled in front of oncoming traffic and been killed because the driver couldn't see her. Sure, it's possible that a driver would swerve to miss what would look like a pothole in the road, but just because the tires would miss her doesn't mean she wouldn't have been fatally struck by some other part of the car. Thus, Joseph probably saved her life twice, once by sheer happenstance and once by intentional action to help rescue her from an imminently deadly situation in the water. In the interest of worsening the situation for Josuke, I'm willing to round the bill up to 137,000 yen for use in this calculation, since I know it was notably over 136,000, but I don't remember the last three digits and I had already deleted the episode when I wrote this. Joseph said something about an 80 yen to the dollar exchange rate, so in 1999 dollars, that would've been $1,712.50. In today's dollars, that means it could've been over $2,000 (no, I don't know the official inflation over those 19 years, and I don't feel like searching for it, but simple increases in prices of things makes me believe we could've had 17% inflation over that time as judged by real purchasing power of daily things which are deemed "too volatile" to include in the official calculations [i.e. the kind of things that people buy the most with their truly discretionary spending], so I'll stick with my guesstimate, and if I'm lower than the actual amount, so be it, because then the reality for Josuke would be even worse than my make-it-look-bad-for-Joseph scenario). 7. I know that I'm posting this on a fan-operated forum for subbed versions of Japanese cartoons, but regarding Koichi and the other short dude, my initial reaction to their fanboying was "nerrrrrrrrds!!" Yeah, cutting open a spider and licking its blood was creepy and very gross. As for Rohan's initially stated inspiration process, I'll grant that plausible, which is a term that must be used loosely in regard to the JoJo-verse, situations and events would make for more compelling horror stories because of the relative realism. Still, when he ripped pages out of Koichi, I feel like that's the kind of thing which would create conspicuous gaps in Koichi's memory, since the events detailed on those pages would've been removed from him. It could even change his personality, since something on a page could've been very pertinent to forming his character, the kind of person he is. I didn't expect the removed pages to manifest an actual reduction of his mass. While Koichi is very short (the doorknob was only a little below eye-level for him), if he dropped 20 kg, (44 lbs), when his starting weight would've been about 39.5 kg (almost 87 lbs), then that's a drastic enough change in his weight to be life-threatening, since his bones and vital organs would be more than half of his total weight. He may not actually have had enough strength to move, let alone carry his school bag. Now, it's possible that the loss of mass was proportionally distributed across all his body's structures and systems, but decreasing the mass of his bones by just over half would leave them dangerously brittle, since their size would remain the same, so they'd necessarily have just under half the density. That could compromise their integrity to the point that simply walking could cause something to break, which would cause him to fall onto even more of these brittle bones, creating even more breaks. Then there's his heart, which would be supplying only around half the cells, but it would be doing it with less than half the muscle mass to push less than half the volume through nearly the same length of blood vessels. That means to keep the pressure in the vessels high enough to be able to get the veinous blood back to his heart, since that is largely a fight against gravity, which would not change, his lesser cardiac muscle mass would need to push harder and more frequently, meaning that while his systolic pressure would drop dangerously due to the suddenly decreased volume, his pulse rate would skyrocket. Yes, he'd rapidly replace blood volume once he started drinking liquids, but he'd be exhausted and on the verge of a heart attack for several days while he did replenish the lost fluid volume of his blood. The point is, this memory theft was not only a heinous assault on the sanctity of Koichi's mind, but it had grievous physical consequences as well. The slightest accident or a notable agitation could injure him severely, or even kill him. It's not quite truly analogous, but Rohan effectively raped Koichi here, but with the ultimate ruffie. The poor boy can't even remember he was accosted, and it looks like he was brainwashed into returning for more assault sessions. If Koichi can ever remember the scope of what happened to him, I'd be fine with him getting some natural justice on Rohan. While it's quite probable that Josuke will be involved in giving Rohan his comeuppance, I would find it more satisfying if Koichi, while trying in the next episode to attack Rohan, takes hold of the margin area where the word "cannot" is in Rohan's insurance policy phrase and tears it out, freeing Koichi to bombard Rohan with Reverb's powers. Oh, and Koichi's sister is pretty. 8. That is some malarkey, show. Koichi speaking against Rohan is not attacking him. I reject the premise that harsh or critical speech is violence, so no. Just no. It's too convenient for Rohan. Koichi was lucky he didn't break a lot of bones falling down the stairs. Thankfully for Koichi, Josuke and Okayasu found something suspicious about what was happening in Rohan's house and investigated. Unfortunately for Okayasu, he didn't use The Hand's power to obliterate that manga page Rohan held up toward him. Even more unfortunate for Okayasu was how quickly Rohan used a pen to put an insurance policy on his arm. While it wasn't Koichi getting his own vengeance for what Rohan did to him, Josuke's rampage while in a literal blind rage was thoroughly entertaining. The flashback to the why of Josuke's sensitivity over his hair gave us some information, like learning that lil' Josuke did come down with the Stand sickness, but it raised an even more curious mystery. I will admit that the pins on the collar of the young man who came to the Higashikatas' assistance don't match the ones Josuke currently wears, but I believe that actually was the (near?) future Josuke intervening in his past through some kind of time-travel shenanigans. We could hear lil' Josuke's labored breathing, and we could hear Ms. Higashikata's spoken words. Evidently she could hear the words of this helpful youth, since she did as he "said," but his words weren't spoken dialogue for us; they were text on the screen. There would be nothing unusual about this in the manga, but in the anime, there would need to be a reason to hide his voice from us. The obvious answer for why that would be is because we would recognize the voice were we to hear it, and I think that's because it would be Josuke's voice. I have no idea how or why Josuke goes/is sent into the past to help his younger self, especially when we know that medical science could do nothing to combat the Stand sickness, so he wasn't truly helping himself, but he did help alleviate his younger mom's distress over being stuck in the snow. Well, I guess that means he did help himself by helping lil' Josuke and his mom not be stranded on that road in winter, potentially for days, which could easily be a life-threatening situation. 9. What the crap? Why would the dude use the Stand Arrow on rats, other than to see if he could hit such a small target? Also, no. The Stand Arrow is, to a rat, an enormous projectile that would create a massive gaping wound. Sure, rodents have high metabolic rates, meaning they heal more quickly than a human would, but they also have a comparatively tiny blood volume in their bodies. Guess what other rate is high in rodents? The pulse rate. That means their hearts would blast the small amount of blood they have out these catastrophic wounds at a rapid rate, and thus the rats wouldn't survive the injuries to gain Stands, let alone two separate rats gaining Stands that are almost, if not exactly the same in their general form and powers. Thus, no, show. I reject the premise of these enemy Stand users being able to exist at all. It's not that animals can't have Stands. We and Jotaro know they can, because we've all seen it during Stardust Crusaders with Iggy, Pet Shop, and the rape orangutan. What I reject is that this species could survive the trauma caused by the process depicted to awaken a Stand. I also have serious doubts that the rats would be able to use their Stands, since gaining a site picture, aiming and pressing a button to fire the flesh-melting projectile are all things the rats would need to learn or be taught to do, because none of those things come naturally to a rat, and plotting a ricochet hit is especially beyond their concept of what to do. The Stands would've needed to impart at least primate-level, if not human-level intellect to the rats, and I have trouble believing that. As for the rats and their powers, all I can say ew ew ew ew ew ew ew ew ew ewwww! That was skin-crawling gross there. Good work learning to fire projectiles, including rifle rounds, so quickly, Josuke. While we didn't see it happen, I'm going to presume he also made good on his idea to use C.D. to restore that unfortunate old couple. Yes, Jotaro knew Josuke could repair the damage, but it still took courage and determination to put himself in a position where he could be hit and endure that painful melting process.

HxH - The humans on which the King and Welfin were based were brothers. Oh good, that makes me even more excited. Actually, it's more that the human Welfin was based on was (adopted) brothers with the NGL's leader. Not sure if he's the King's reincarnation yet. In other news, I finally caught up with shows, so here are my one-line thoughts on them. MHA - I've got nothing as good as what's below, so just take the time to appreciate my new icon. SHIPPUDEN - I liked how the sudden lack of light saturation on the boat after Naruto was pushed out of the way of the pulley - plus the psychedelic art shift when he did - foreshadowed the whole filler being a dream. BORUTO - And the filler itself foreshadowed Boruto's own clones having a little strike of their own. SUPER - I don't know who I feel sorry for more, Yamcha for being snubbed out of consideration once again or Puar for being perved on by Roshi. (Though his/her bunny-girl getup look was kinda cute...) MOB - Reigen is the greatest, and Ritsu's kinda fun as an asshole. MEGALOBOX - Lo-fi hip-hop 4 lyfe. JOJO - I was expecting part of Jotaro's body to be in the process of melting, but not the pus explosions. CLOVER - Yami is the perfect audience surrogate for this show; he genuinely wants his subordinates to improve, but can't help but show annoyance and occasionally murderous intent whenever they retreat to their one-note running gags. HUNTER - Even with all the body horror in JoJo and after watching four Shivering Truth episodes in a row (minus a small break at the start of the third where I got my first internship offer), I still think those centipedes crawling around in Ikalgo's head are the most disturbing [as]-related thing I've seen in the past month. Well, excluding that Stain/Toga fanart I saw in the MHA discussion thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PokeNirvash Posted January 5, 2019 Author Share Posted January 5, 2019 (edited) Tempting, but I think I'm gonna keep myself in the dark until when it happens in the anime. (If it happens in the anime...) For now, I'll just rely on my icon for dirty thoughts about mai best-of-both-worlds waifu. Tonight on Toonami, Buu's sudden case of the Itis puts the completion of the Universe 7 Team in jeopardy, Boruto brings his most suspicious friend home for dinner, news of Stain's defeat goes viral in the worst way possible, the mysterious hooded psychic Mob detected two episodes ago makes Ritsu regret ever having an ego, Junk Dog Joe begins his long trek to Megalonia as most rookies do at the very bottom of the food chain, Rohan and Koichi investigate the mystery behind a haunted alleyway, this is the end of Black Clover's initial batch of episodes so I hope you like your action sequences animated by third-world subcontractors, Killua engages in battle with the absolute last person he expected to fight today, and Filler Hell returns to the not-so-coveted Tenchi GXP timeslot, where it rightfully belongs. 11:00 - Dragonball Super #92 - A State of Emergency!

EmpressAngel Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Hero- GO AWAY, FUCKHANDS. Aw my kids are all banged up. Someone get Iida some new arms. He's McGruff the crime dog. I love him. This is bullshit they saved a guy. No don't give Garbage DILF the credit. Is McGruff super tall or is normal dude super short? I love you, McGruff.

Oh no poor Iida. I hope that wasn't your jackoff hand. Someone please hug Iida. Hand Crusher. HIS RINGTONE. I love Granpa. Ohhh crap. Fuckhands absolutely did not know this would happen. OHHHHH CRAP. Y'know what I'm gonna fight this guy myself. This is probably a really bad thing. I disagree I have a lot of fun when All Might's around. Fucking Youtube stirring up drama. Okay the new people are probably not on our side. Mob- That hair continues to crack me up. Oh this is gonna hurt my heart. This is your fault, Slimer. Awwww he's so happy for him. Mob is such a good kid. And now I'm depressed. AWWW MOB. I got a real bad feeling about this guy. Aw crap wrong brother. Leave my son alone you dicks. Oh this is going bad. Ohhhh Mob's getting angry. KICK HIS ASS, MY BOY. Why can't I have nice things? Team up and kick his ass, kiddos. Please stop hurting my kids. OH SHIT HE'S MAD. Eat shit, douchebag. Uh, I think you got him. Aw fuck he's still here. Uh Mob you okay there buddy? Oh fuuuuuuuck. I think Mob broke. Now I want pasta. You douchebag. I could go for a good massage. Mob might be dead. This is all Slimer's fault and you shoud kill him. So they're evil X-Men, basically. He's such a good boy. I like that guy's sweater. Yes it's your fault and yes you should feel bad. I'd say call Reigen but god knows he's not gonna be any help here. Boxing- Calm down it's just a roomba. I don't like your odds here, Spider. DRINK. Good luck Joe I believe in you. Yeah just have a bunch of shit wired right into your body that's a great idea. Hey, free apple. Hello there, street urchins. Hey, free cameras. Now THAT'S some fightin' gear. Hi there random dude who sounds suspiciously like Avdol. Fuck yeah, candy! Man that was some expensive candy. MY SNOWGLOBE. Joe stop getting your face cut open. Well this sounds like it'll be a fun fight. SHARKBAIT OO HA HA . Stop getting your pretty face hurt! I like the street urchins. Right in the stomach. This kid knows his stuff. I sense a tragic backstory. NO NOT THE WINE. Oh yeah urchin that's a great plan steal the gear. Shit's on fire, yo. I wonder how much candy they got for that. Michiko would be proud of that entrance. Urchins no don't get in the way. Oh damn that looks real good on him. Whelp so much for the fancy gear. I'm into this. Jojo- I instinctively want to punch Rohan. Phantom road! Oh no Koichi don't go alone with Rohan. ROHAN YOU KIDNAPPED HIM. Did he say a PLUS ULTRA map? Eww. Oh this is a stand isn't it. Use Rohan as a human shield. Oh hey she's cute. God I hate him. Great you attacked this girl for nothing. Rohan stop that's creepy. I love this girl. McNuggets is activating my flight-or-fight response somethin' fierce here. Oh that sounds ominous. I remember this urban legend scared the shit out of me when I was a kid. GODDAMMIT ANOTHER DEAD DOG. Oh fuuuuuuuuuck. NOOOOPE NOPE NOPE NOPETY NOPE. A g-g-g-ghost?! I hope Koichi gets away while she's killing Rohan. Oh this is depressing. Tell Jotaro he's the only real adult here. Fuck you, Rohan. Someone give Reimi a hug. Can we just leave the douchebag in the shadow realm? Well this is creepy. Look back, manga dick. Go into the light! Goddammit Koichi. Thanks I guess, asshole. Even Rohan is impressed. Ohhhh shit. I admire her for throwing him out the window. Okuyasu. Of course he's using a stand, it's always a stand. KILLER, THERE'S THE KILLER. Ohhh that's fucked up. Clover- Yes we just saw this entire arc. Every episode where the sister fucker isn't violently murdered is a waste of time. At least they're giving this fucker subtitles now. Yami continues to be the single bright spot in this shitshow. Yami doesn't have kids because I'm pretty sure your survival odds with him are 50/50 at best. And he got where he is today by not giving a single whistling fuck about anything. Wow, I don't care at all about this ambush. Did this guy steal that hat from Speedwagon? If everyone dies can we just end the show now? Well it is the year of the boar. Can you send Yami in to kill everyone? Hey there, dimestore Griffin. I'm uncomfortable with the amount of chest hair on this man. Oh good, the fairy's also annoying. Every time someone uses those sparkle eyes I die a little inside. Send Yami out it's the only way I can feel anything besides anger. Hell no kid you stay the fuck there. No goddammit leave the brats here. I'd be lying if I said I didn't make that same high-pitched squealing sound when I see All Might but damn I can't understand a word she's saying. Hunter- She's a lot less creepy in ant form than her normal form. I like that Killua has to recharge in a wall socket like my phone. Smask her with the yoyo! Alright kiddo you're gonna have to kick her ass right here. I miss Bisky. Oh no kid don't get closer she's gonna kill you. Oh hey, she's not brainwashed. Oh good, she's still fixated on the little boy half her age. I'm concerned about that giant blood stain in the middle of her chest. And then she was Yukako. Hair dress just seems like it'd be super itchy. MY YOYO. Someone, Koichi is waking up in a cold sweat. If anything, Palm's real personality only makes her even crazier. Maybe you should try aiming for that giant bubble thing in the middle of her forhead. God I hope she falls for this. Killua nees a hug. Oh, FUCK this guy. Whelp, this sucks. Kill the bug, Palm. THANK YOU. Awwwwwwwwwww. Oh, we're fucked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PokeNirvash Posted January 7, 2019 Author Share Posted January 7, 2019 So... Remember back in Black Clover episode 11 when I made this comment. On 2/25/2018 at 2:36 PM, PokeNirvash said: A girl with bright turquoise hair, she must be important. Turns out that was an early cameo of Grey's true form. I literally just found that out yesterday. Man, time flies. But on the upside, I guess I was right about her being important. It feels like it's been forever since I've seen the Toonami intro. DRAGONBALL SUPER - Oh yeah, I forgot the first show has dibs on the full 90. Clearly all the training he went through wore him out, I wouldn't be surprised if that was his first time training ever. Sometimes I forget how huge Top is compared to the average person. It's nice you want to help, Satan, but... no. Whis is the only one who can get away with throwing shade at Beerus 100%. MEANWHILE, ON ROBOT PLANET. You know, making your universe's Supreme Kai the same color as your Angel makes it hard to tell which one's which, even with the huge-ass halo and mostly bald head making the difference obvious enough already. There's no one in the world more overpowered than a robot with all the right upgrades. Reverse nosebleed. I can tell from that blush that Pilaf's thinking up another scheme. "Buu fell asleep!" "Again?" Does this mean this will finally be Yamcha's time to shine? Ya blew it, Krillin. You do realize you can just wish for 10 million zeni each if you win, right? Welp, he's banned for life. BROLY'S BACK, BITCHES. It takes more than just screaming like you're super-constipated to become a Super Saiyan. Try calling her fat, that always does the trick. I guess trying to poop out your spine really does make one a Super Saiyan, if only temporarily. Whoever that girl is, I can tell she's into it. Or maybe not. We now return you to Everybody Hates Goku, already in progress. I don't care if Goku's the hero or secret villain or whatnot, this is still hard to watch and yet I can't look away. Thank you, Beerus. Thank you also, Bulma. We Lord Freeza now. BORUTO - I feel like the show's making a futile effort, trying to hide who Mitsuki's conversing with through that random snake. Cloning tank flashbacks. Hey, Denki's gotten pretty good at all this ninja stuff. Is using shadow clones in a situation like this considered cheating? Well, you came the closest to finishing on record, and that's what really matters. (Extra props to the writers for not making the things run on Namek time.) Everyone fails, so that's why we're throwing this assignment out. Dang, Moegi grew up attractive. Yakisoba buns are the chili dogs of Japan. "I'm so fucked up." DRAG COUNT: 1. It feels so weird hearing them refer to Naruto by his title and not his name. Pretend the variables are food items, and the rest will solve itself. "Are you picking a fight?" "Unintentionally, yes." So he's like Naruto, but without all the childhood ostracization. Eh, I'd say he stresses Sarada out more often than the class rep. I wonder what that flashback meant... He has his snake dad, and that's about it. [GAY FEELINGS INTENSIFY] Huh, that's a new old commercial. Note how the dead fish in Boruto look less horrified than the dead fish in SAO. It's more like he was expecting him to stay late as he does 99 times out of 100. Well he did have his own show way back when. Hey, don't diss the ramen. A little of column A, a little of column B. Fast food is different from home cooking, you should know that. Late, yes, but at least he came back before the meal started in earnest. It's mutual goodness, you see. Aaaaaaand in comes work to ruin things yet again. Never mind, it was just a flashback. And it turns out I was right after all, sorta. Come to think of it, it's amazing that I've never had a rebellious teen phase. Hokage this, Hokage that, it feels like OG Naruto never ended. Snake Blum sounds pretty chill nowadays. If this is a love confession, I swear to god... Oh good, it's plot. MY HERO ACADEMIA - "You don't cut until I tell you to cut!" Huh, no credits this time. In any situation before this, Deku would've been the one with the most bandages and the two slings. Technically, he was lying on the ground about half the time. LIGHT NOVEL TITLE OF THE WEEK: The Chief of Police is a Dog and Somehow That Doesn't Surprise Me!? Oh great, another harsh lecture. Thanks for using common sense there, Todoroki. Oh good, I was hoping there'd be a bright side to all of this. "You know, you could've started with that." Yes, he could've. And in the end, their internships were easily the most exciting. Sounds like those two girls are kinda into Endeavor. I had to rewind twice there to confirm the reporter said Stain "has more victims" instead of that he "is more victim". All these guys (plus girl) you're seeing will be important later. Hero Kilometer? Nobody cares about you, Handjob Man, as it should be. Having nice hair makes Bakugo physically uncomfortable. DOUBLE DOPE SLAP. Because they're worth it. Geez, how many people did Deku even send his location to? So far, I have three. "Iida just got his test results back. He definitely has breast cancer a bum hand." Yes, let's just play some cheery Mickey Mouse music right after Iida received terrible, bone-chilling news about his non-dominant hand (assuming he's a rightie). Oh good, so it is operable. Almost forgot all about Deku's own hand problems. Todoroki has a hand curse. Icy-Hot the Hand Crusher, that's your new hero name. All Might's ringtone is the greatest. Welp, so much for the rest of Deku's internship. I'd say Stain's lack of a proper nose was more intimidating than his fanaticism. CHARISMA IS KEY. AAAAAAAANTS. It's kinda funny how Gran Torino's theory is ultimately unintentional on the League of Villains' part. "All For One", huh. Well that's certainly a fitting moniker. Random golden disco ball. What a surprisingly informative biographical video. Mesmerizing, too. Theeeeere's my murder-waifu of the year. But does Handjob Man know that they're coming? MOB PSYCHO 100 - The more these two are together, the more I'm tempted to ship them. I love Hanazawa's beehive wig. Getting out of there while the getting's good. DIMPLE OUT. Mob is the purest boy. Well this sure got dramatic in a hurry. The lesson here is that hard work does help, but only when balanced with outside influence. Truly the purest boy. Wrong Kageyama, psychic swordsman guy. You can't win over delinquents with diplomacy forever, Mob. Ironically, that guy who just came down is second strongest. "Let's not turn this solo kidnapping into a mass murder..." Well this is escalating quickly. The power a single death threat has on the majority is amazing. SHIT COUNT: 1. "That's..." The real White T Poison? As with everything else in history, exceptions have been made. With Durarara!! having namedropped "moe" and this show using the term "esper" without lumping it in with aliens and time-travelers, is there really any more personal need to have Haruhi on [as]? Painful, yet somehow easier to watch than lawlharem B.S. ARE YOU FEELING IT NOW MR. KRABS? My sister just saw the infamous Muppet-knockoff airhorn anti-smoking commercial for the first time just now, and her response was "Jeez..." You won't like Mob when he's angry, especially because he doesn't need to change size and color when he does. YUTAKA NAKAMURA SAKUGA SPOTTED. Oh shit, he's still awake. TRUMP CARD COUNT: 1. And then brave Sir Dimple ran away. You can't not love White T Poison. Plan Z: follow the original plan! Mob is an unsung hero to delinquents everywhere. FUCK YEAH PINK SALT. Tags: cheese_grater. Say what you will about Reigen's lack of sincerity, but he definitely makes the experience of people he's "tricking" worth their money. Oh no, more lectures, what ever will I dooooo. When all else fails, just blame Dimple. An organization called Claw, founded by Dr. Claw. Dimple's getting flashbacks to his cult-running days here. Such confidence... Oh good, no fatalities here. This show does misunderstandings the best. That's one hell of an introduction, I'll say. What the hell, English cover version? And a different arrange at that... MEGALOBOX - I like how he's trying to sneak in even though he's not exactly being secret about it. Holy crap that's a lotta boxers named after various animals. Now that's a good edit. Oh god a full bodysuit and OTN mask combo, is this show trying to turn me gay? Iglesias is a really cool last name, you can't deny it. Nice boathouse. I feel it's gonna be awkward hearing him referred to by an actual name. Welcome to the homeless district, fellas. Sweet, free apple. Welp, so much for your daily supply of fruit. Core and all? That's one hardcore street kid. Scratch that, they're all pretty hardcore, one or two cores less at the least. It's expensive, yes, but that doesn't make it any less impressive. Those kids really look like they came out of a different show. They're just Atomic Fireballs, no big deal. Well this is escalating quickly. So much ass-talk this episode. HE'S A MAAAAAAN EATER. Now call him fat so he can really unlock his inner potential. If you wrote him off as a joke, then why are you still here watching him? VIVA LA FREEDOM. STOMACH PUNCH. Hot damn this soundtrack is great. What a waste of perfectly good booze. We Grand Theft Gear now? ["Gonna Fly Now" plays in the background]. Sometimes I feel like Turner S&P is under-rating this show on purpose. REPLY TO ANGEL 1: "Michiko would be proud of that entrance." Agreed, even if it would've been better were he actually riding the bike. Welp, so much for that Gear being important. TASTE THE PAIN. This is definitely the kind of show where you get more out of watching it than commenting at every little opportunity. That said, that end to the fight was real exciting. I just love it when a crazy plan comes together. DIAMOND IS UNBREAKABLE - Nobody expects Vic Manga-ka. The homoeroticism in this scene is palpable. Consider myself lucky, I've been living in the same house since I was born, so my childhood memories definitely have an air of freshness. Clearly that open alley is an enemy STAND! No opening this week, in case you were wondering what that copyright line at the bottom was about. "This map is USELESS USELESS USELESS!" You got Onodera and Numakura mixed up, subtitle team. Like I said, the alley's a STAND. Nice to see his STAND finally has a humanoid form. Josuke's a hater. TMI ROHAN TMI. Oh shit, an actual undoctored Pocky box! Is it common for creative minds to lack self-awareness? This sounds awfully October for January. Twenty bucks says this is the "humans can lick too" creepypasta. Eh, it's close enough. That ghost dog looks pretty calm for having a bleeding throat. There's a first time for everything, Rohan. How come TOM gets to say "Crazy Diamond" but the actual characters don't? Demarco being a blind idiot as usual? Koichi's just sailing in the wind back there. Nothing can stop THE WALL. Oh, so it's not a STAND, it's just freaking purgatory. Well at least she's a helpful ghost. Don't make things worse, Rohan. And about 25% of that "national average" is Angelo's fault, thank god he's a rock now. A gash so deep, you have to take her word for it. Truly Morioh is the Japanese equivalent of the town from Murder, She Wrote, only with one killer instead of one per victim. Might I recommend Josuke to you if they won't cut it? Or perhaps Jotaro? Rohan, you and your priorities. Rule #1: Don't Look Back! It's amazing how tense this show is able to make walking through an alleyway feel. GODDANGIT KOICHI. Thanks for the assist as always, Rohan. "Arnold and I will look back - a lot like that guy - and we'll be reunited with Mom and Dad." Wait, Little Rohan? Hmm, so that's how Japanese tombstones work... This old monk sounds awfully familiar. Who'd have thought that Rohan's backstory would be so inspirational (to him), maybe? Oh, Okuyasu. It's always a matter of "are they a STAND user" with the Joestars. There's something oddly foreshadowy about that line. Dang Koichi, two isekai attempts in one episode? You gotta watch yourself! "Hello, I'm David Bowie." And he's also that dude who's been chopping off lady hands and having sex with them, who'da thunk it? If he doesn't have a STAND, at the very least he has a Death Note. BLACK CLOVER - Going straight into the OP after the once-an-episode narration, already a bad sign of the inevitable animation downturn to come. Aaaaand we get a recap anyways. From point A to point B, without all the meaningless side stops in-between. Reminder that Asta isn't saluting because his arm's busted. Asta shouting, Gauche nosebleeding, Charmy stuffing her face, Vanessa getting wasted... yep, time to rethink my life choices once again. Nobody cares about Gordon, and that makes him a sad panda. And now we have Finral wanting to get his dick wet and Noelle acting more tsun than dere, it's like the horror never ended. "Oh hey Nero, you're tagging along too." "Of course, why wouldn't I?" Was that window always broken? I can't remember if Finral's VA is gay or not, if so then that makes his lady love all the more sensibly chuckle-worthy. Considering how chibi she is, I'm not surprised she's mistaken for being his daughter. He dropped her literally. Does this mean they get two gold stars this time? He's not crazy, you're all just unbelievably racist. Lookin' kinda wall-eyed there, Yami. He's only 28!? AUTOGRAPHS. Where'd he even get that quill? Wait, so are they heading for the village and they're seeing it via magic telescreen, or are they just looking out the window at them? Finally, Shyamalan's back to making decent movies again. You can just see where the animators stopped trying on this shot. As I thought, it's through the magic telescreen. Wait, that old general's not an old woman? REPLY TO ANGEL 2: "Did this guy steal that hat from Speedwagon?" Worse, he stole it from whomever he bequeathed it to in his will. Random blink-or-you'll-miss-it Japanese time-card. RECYCLED ANIMATION NO JUTSU. Okay so who took over for the Purple Orcas after their leader got jailed and what the hell their mouths didn't even move. Aim for his turtleneck! That spell name sounds three times longer than it should be. Heh, one of them has a magic carpet. The animation just keeps getting lazier by the minute. STOP, YUNO TIME. And I see his sprite got a new hairdo. I just realized that guy's eyebrows are coming out of his afro. And she can speak now too, such progress! Oh Yuno, you're a tolerable character. Everyone's a fanboy but Yami. The spank what now? Even if your plan gets the go-ahead, the hard part will be pulling Finral away from his attempts at picking up chicks. Nice to see Finral's aware of the sneezing superstition. And how are you gonna evacuate people without arms as direction signals, your voice? In the end, it all comes down to their boners for Yuno. Shut up, Finral's brother. Three outsourcing partners, that explains how bad this episode looked. HUNTER x HUNTER - Just how long have those people been standing out there, exactly? Oh hey, Palm actually looks serviceably attractive now, compared to her initial design. YOUR BATTERY IS NOW AT 100%. Killua brings new meaning to the phrase "silent running". That aura does seem familiar somehow. Customized mirror, go! Apparently she's become part-fish. NERVES STATUS: RATTLED. Friendly reminder that Gon's off the deep end enough already. That giant purple stone on her forehead disturbs me. "Once he sees what I have become, do you think that he's going to hate me?" I dunno, maybe? I love these chibi recap moments. HAIR CLOTHES. Press F for yo-yo #1. I don't know how, but she somehow just got hotter, moreso than when she did herself up that one time. On the topic of [adult swim] originals, I saw the first two episodes of Ballmastrz on Saturday. It's definitely going to be an acquired taste, at least. Oh yeah, I think I may have made a comment about her being an enhancer once. Damn that's an erotic murder face. (Yes, I'm aware of the gross double meaning.) Something tells me that he's gonna snap anyways, Palm showing up to say hi or not. I like that her outfit's vibrataaaand now it's not. I don't know if I can deal with Killua breaking into tears like this. Go away Pouf, nobody likes you. Random symbolism doll is random and symbolic. Well that explains the bloodstain on her dress. I still miss the penguin dude. CONSPICUOUS CGI HUMANS. I literally started applauding when Palm punched that tiny Pouf to pieces, and now my hands hurt. In only one episode, so much has happened despite seeming like so little. That's the power of HxH, and one that can only be appreciated by those with a college education. Nobody tells Youpi nuthin'. Bubble butts, chiseled cheeks, and what was that last one again? (Seriously, someone find me the lyrics so I know what the deal is with that yellow freckled ass-person with the heart tattoo and platform heels.) NARUTO SHIPPUDEN - Here I thought this episode would take place off the boat. Guess that's what I get for expecting good things from filler. Especially one as repetitive (on purpose) as this one... Oh well, at least Shikamaru was involved this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PokeNirvash Posted January 12, 2019 Author Share Posted January 12, 2019 (edited) Tonight on Toonami, Goku heads to Otherworld to recruit Lord Freeza of all people as their tournament team replacement, the person behind the Ghost Incidents reveals themselves by way of siccing a beast on the village, we get a look on what the rest of Class 1-A (but mostly Tsuyu) have been doing during internship week, Mob and Teru begin their mission to rescue Ritsu from the clutches of the Claw Organization, Nanbu's plan to get Joe through Megalonia is so crazy that he might get killed, Josuke and Okuyasu discover the most surreptitious get-rich-quick scheme ever thanks to another stray STAND user, the Golden Dawn go as all-out as they can afford in their battle against the invading Diamond Kingdom, let's get back to the Netero vs. King fight before the audience starts getting bored with all the 4D chess going on elsewhere, and yes, this week's Shippuden filler does in fact take place off the boat. Also Phantom Spaceman at 5AM, because even if it is technically comedy, I still think Venture Bros. has enough action and plot to qualify for an occasional grouping in with the shows of ACTN past and Toonami present. 11:00 - Dragonball Super #93 - You're Our Tenth Warrior!

EmpressAngel Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 Hero- I love Best Jeanist. Skinny Jeans Bakugo is so fucking angry. Meanwhile all the other kids are actually doing well. FROPPY FILLER, GO. Oh my god he's a giant seal I love him. He's so cute! Selkie for best hero. I just realized that her hat is a frog's face. I'd follow you into hell, adorable seal man. Sad, dejected ribbit. I don't trust those squid lackeys. Oh yeah this is a great plan. Having super hearing seems like a really annoying way to go deaf. You'd think squid lady could just chomp through that gag. SAVE FROPPY. Aw fuck it's discount Cthulhu. Kinda disappointed those aren't her real ears. Do ye fear death, Jack Sparrow? If Froppy dies we riot. THANK YOU SEAL MAN. Adorable. No big deal, this was easier than nearly getting killed by Fuckhands. Froppy makes my heart happy. Mob- Great job, idiot. That's some strange facial hair. Oh hell no you leave my kid alone. Yes please recruit the Jojo Club for this mission. This is great. Mob is too sweet for his own good. You should torture him a little more. HI, guy who sounds suspiciousy like Avdol. FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT. Welcome, Leader Gimp. This analogy sounds about right. RIP Minecraft boy. Jesus Christ show. Okay that flying car is some real mood whiplash. Yeah dude I'm sure this'll go just great for you. KICK HIS ASS, MOB. That'll do it. You're a good kid, Ritzu. Oh hey he's not dead. That's cold, Ritzu. Just set everyone on fire. OH SHIT HE'S GOT A SPOON. Well I'll be damned, that worked. Well you guys are just completely useless from this point aren't you. Damn Ritzu is not fucking around. Okay that plan is kinda brilliant. Awww she likes him. Slimer being surprisingly helpful. Uh boys I think you got him. I'm looking forward to seeing this guy get his ass kicked again. KICK HIS ASS, MOB. Oh shit don't fuck with Mob. Boxing- You've got a scrappy child sidekick on your side, you can't lose. Oh, you're going to die. I hope you get good medical coverage for this game. RABBLE RABBLE. Ain't no rule says a dog can't play boxing. Don't worry coach it's just a fight boner. Well the important thing is you tried.I'm pretty sure Joe's got a concussion. This is probably not a good thing. No seriously, get that man some medical attention. Alright new plan, goad him into getting kicked out. No shit there's something wrong with Joe. I gotta agree, this strategy sucks. Powerup via inspirational speech from the spunky urchin, go! Have...have you never felt afraid before? I'm still half-expecting the urchin to turn out to be a girl. FUCK YEAH PUNCHING. He even gets a slow clap! Coach leveled up with better clothes. I'm digging this montage. Oh dang that's a good match. I don't like where this is going. Jojo- I don't think Craigslist exists yet so you can't find the dude with the hand fetish. Goddammit Joseph. Don't worry, you have a rich daddy you can guilt-trip now. Well that's creepy looking. Hi, Okuyasu! Wasting my money IS starting a fight. What the fuck is this gremlin? Wait you mean he looked like that BEFORE he got shot? Oh, that's kinda sad to watch him. Okuyasu and his MILF fetish. I have no idea how much that is in American but it sounds like a lot. You sneaky dick. Oh no, he's too nice. Turd boy. You can pay for my friendship. Yes, exploit this dimwitted child for profit. Don't give him that stamp he'll eat it. It's nice to see idiot kids using their powers for fun instead of life-threatening battles. It's good that they sent Josuke because he's the only one with more than six braincells. Good job Koichi, run from the crazy bitch. FREE MONEY! Can't blame him for trying. You little bastard. Okuyasu might have rabies. Shippin' it. Let him try. He's got a point about the physique, he got those Joestar genes in full force. Clover- Just show me Yami killing things and leave me alone. Look at all these new people for me to hate. Shut up, Tinkerbell. I literally don't remember this guy at all. That fat guy might just be Shigechi's birth father. Y'know what I'd rather just get stabbed to death than drown in mucus. That's a boy? PETTY BICKERING. Nothing scarier than a fucking tree. Isn't this how Fern Gully ended? Are you really gonna deny me Yami fighting again you incompetent shits? I'd kinda rather just die than live with the shame of being saved by Asta. When did he get that bird? He's right, what really matters in a fight is watching all those beefy muscles move around. God, I don't care. Dimestore Griffith is just gonna kill you, dude. Yeah this is literally just Fern Gully now. Hey there Sexy. Keep it up I can almost feel something besides anger. Are they gonna fuck? Yeah they're gonna fuck. Hunter- I like Palm better as a monster. KICK HIS ASS, KNUCKLE. Please punch out the butterfly I'll reward you with dogs. Gon is so pissed. I hate this guy so goddamn much. OH YOU MOTHERFUCKER. I am very concerned for Gon here. Ohhh someone is going to die. Well looks like your plan has gone tits-up here. Be the voice of reason here, shirtless knuckle. I got a real bad feeling about all this. This arc has assured that I will never have kids. I don't know enough about chess to understand this metaphor. You're getting soft, old man. Aw crap he blocked the hand. Ohhh that's sounding like a death monologue, grandpa. I really hope you kill this dude here because I don't think anybody else is gonna manage it. I do love some dramatic choir music during epic fights. Heart is objectively the worst of the Captain Planet powers but maybe it'll come through here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PokeNirvash Posted January 16, 2019 Author Share Posted January 16, 2019 Dumbass DVR forgot to record Super this week, so I'll get on that later. In fact, I'm gonna get to a lot of things sooner than later this week. BORUTO - Finally, an episode with violence. No relation to the other Shigaraki, I assume. Be patient, Boruto, he'll get to the reveal eventually. As they say, it's always the one you least suspect. I like that even in a position of authority, Naruto still refers to Kakashi as Sensei. Probably has something to do with him being the previous Hokage. For all you know, that rumbling could've been an earthquake. The way Kakashi pronounces "Sumire" is kinda weird. That must've been some war. With matters like this at hand, there's no time for hot springs. I'm not surprised that this triggers Naruto. Good thing we saw Danzo die before this show premiered, otherwise this wouldn't be as meaningful. JUDO CHOP. Vocal summoning triggers were a mistake. I swear, Boruto says "y'know" meaninglessly way more than Naruto did with "Believe it". At least he had the sense to quit that shit half-way into the Chunin Exams. I don't know much about this Deadly Class show outside of it being about a school for assassins with apparently more infighting than West Genetics Academy, but I'm curious about that chick with the Mexican skull facepaint. Like, does she wear it 24/7, or only when she wants to kill? Are those two ninja with Sai the support ninja from the boat filler? Despite all its rage, it's just a summoned beast in a cage. And then tentacle-mouths. Why would anyone be surprised at someone choosing a third option? "No offense, Mitsuki, but this is starting to sound kinda gay." FULL NELSON. He didn't think this through all the way did he. Yes, it's too bad that Choji's getting some right now. Sakura's helping too, but who cares about her? Ninja suicide bombers, how oddly timely. SUDDENLY MITSUKI. "So who are you really working for?" Does the name Snake Blum ring a bell? Mitsuki could've seen it too, if he was there the first time it showed. My, how edgy. MANGEKYO BYAKUGAN. MOB PSYCHO 100 - I'd be more mad about him leaving the special mace behind as opposed to leaving Mob uncaptured. If these guys think they're seriously gonna kill Mob and succeed, they're gonna have another thing coming. I was gonna guess Reigen, but the Body Improvement Club is a fine guess too. So many Mob brand products. SOAP WATERBOARDING. I love this show's maze-shaped reaction faces. Eh, I'd call at least two or three others here fugly before that chick. Their boss is a midget in a gas mask, their face must be covered in scars. Ritsu tells it like it is. Jesus Christ that's a giant chin, puts even the Butt-Chin Goblin to shame. Welp, he's dead. Definitely, definitely dead. And also definitely rethinking my decision to put off watching that My Hero episode now. Dude, we're talking the flying car here! Never trust a villain voiced by Jake Eberle, I wrote one so I should know. Those extended middle fingers seem very fitting, for some reason. It's like his attacks are one extended "fuck you" to them. Great work, Mob. "This battle will only last one night." Yet for us, it'll feel like three to four weeks. Oh good he's alive, thank god for telepaths. They're talking about, uh... dragons. Ritsu really thought that little of them. PROTIP: never scream to amplify your powers during what's supposed to be a surreptitious escape attempt. Lucky for you guys, that was just the decoy plan. BURRRRRRN. Max Mittelman/Mela Lee shipping, I approve. Dimple's only dangerous in that he has a tendency to create and lead cults as dangerously obsessive as Happy Science and Scientology. These white-walled hallways have such a cool aesthetic. Now how long before the two parties cross paths... Random mook? Destroy without discrimination. Ohhhh, their logo's katakana. YOU'RE GONNA LOOOOOSE KOYAMA. Splitting up and searching for clues never works well. Heh, Mob didn't even need to go 100% to show that guy what was what. JOJO'S BIZARRE ADVENTURE: DIAMOND IS UNBREAKABLE - REPLY TO ANGEL 1: "I don't think Craigslist exists yet so you can't find the dude with the hand fetish." Actually, Craigslist was founded in '95 while this takes place in '99, but back then it was limited only to San Francisco, so finding him would be considerably difficult. Way to make the minutia of small town life sound terrifying as shit, Koichi. Meanwhile, Josuke's still wringing his hands over what little money he has left in his bank account. Well, at least Joseph was generous enough to pay it all back, so I'd pin the blame on Josuke for this specific shortage. Hey, who knows where you'll find 1000 yen? I don't think banks really care about health codes as much as restaurants do. This background music sounds Disney as fuck. UNTZ UNTZ UNTZ UNTZ. This scene give the opening theme a whole new meaning. #firstworldproblems. So many CGI micro-STANDs. Yes, Bad/Worse Company does come to mind. IT'S RAINING YEN. (Hallelujah!) This ugly mofo sounds like how I imagine a young Peter Lorre would sound. Alternately, Gollum. GRINNNNNN. I'm gonna call this guy Little Shige, if only because Mob passed on that nickname for himself. What is it with JoJo and turtles? He must get his physical genetics from his old man. Good, now take care of the currency that's technically less than 1 yen next, no one would ever think of paying attention to those. "You sneaky dick." You're a good kid, Little Shige. SHIT COUNT: 4. "As long as it's not some shitty disease, I'll take whatever people are given!" Out of the mouths of below average intelligence. I have a feeling Josuke's plan is going to backfire somehow. It's get-rich-quick scheme time! Fuck yeah, coupons and vouchers! I like this idea of "cash back" better than what I assume it means here. And now it's raining tiny pieces of paper! Friendship is all about getting rich quick, one coin at a time. They're kinda like the three Eds, come to think of it. And here's Koichi on another one of his introspective walks around town. Oh Yukako, you stalker. His eyes are dark, that's no good. HOORAY FOR CASH BACK! Not all girls in short skirts with strap purses are hookers, Little Shige. Also they're technically brownbacks, but whatever. Little Shige's definitely the Eddy of their operation. Okuyasu and Josuke's parallels should be obvious, based on the former's dumbness and the latter's mental math. Hey, it could be worse, Okuyasu could have a pebble in his shoe. And now we're playing the (almost) expired lottery. 5 GORILLION DOLLARS. Their faces. And here, have some Engrish fireworks while we're at it. Knowing Tonio's, the most expensive thing will be off the menu. Next week: Little Shige's Revenge. MY HERO ACADEMIA - Wow, Endeavor really doesn't look pleased at stealing the credit. I like your priorities, Todoroki. I didn't even realize last week that Bakugo had jeans forced on him. Still can't get over that hair tho. That one schoolgirl makes Mina look normal. I can't believe I love Bakugo's anger issues now. But, y'know, in the way a spectator enjoys what happens to people more than the people themselves. Thanks for the fight choreography lesson, Gunhead. Eh, she's attractive, but she's no Mt. Lady or Midnight. What type of hostage situation winds up with only two hostages? Normally it's either one or several. And now here's the protag of this "filler". Yeah, finding out there's way more minutia in your dream job than you anticipated is indeed disappointing. SEAL MAN. Hey, who said bara men can't be moe every once in a while? See, Froppy gets it. Ah, the Coast Guard. I hear they're the ones who watch the Neighborhood Watch. Oh boy, random "nobody likes it but Demarco" music video time! Well, at least the song's nice, and that it explains why my Mob recording had so many ads before it. Buff sailors. Present Mic, like the Spanish Inquisition, shows up where you least expect him to (but really should). Heh, I like that his jacket says "SEAL". A possibly intentional double meaning? Not to be speciesist or anything, but I don't trust those two tentacle-haired fellows. IT'S A TRAP, and not the fun kind either! Oh no, it's the water that'll kill you. Those guys just murdered you. "Shouldn't we rescue the Captain and the others?" Did you not hear her say they were fine? Oh hey, there's a female one of those too. Famous last words if I've ever heard any. Need a villain in your show? Why not Zoidberg? Oh wow, that one comic was actually right about her fin-ears being detachable. WAY TO GO FROPPY. Welp, at least an effort was made. Attacking him with his own men, what a badass move. You people really need to learn not to tempt fate with your spoken-word confidence. Too bad for you he doesn't need his eyes to see! DYNAMIC FINISH. Froppy a cute! A little disappointed we didn't get to see the other internships besides the important ones, but hey, there's always next week. Say what you will about him, but it's nice to see Jamie win for once. DRAGONBALL SUPER - I definitely blame Goku for the secondary crisis last episode, not because he lied about the 10 million zeni prize, but because he failed to tell Piccolo that he told some of the others that lie. It was him pointing out that it was a lie that brought the whole mess on, after all. I must ask, why is the episode title text in the Japanese version so huge compared to the English? Too close, Krillin. You make some very solid, if not questionable, points there, Goku. God Ian Sinclair is a great VA. And if either of you fail, Beerus could just Hakai him, he had no qualms about Hakaiing Krillin earlier. King Kai lives in Otherworld, so of course Goku can just teleport there at will. Who the fuck is that imp over there? Nobody tells King Yemma nothin'. SUPER DUPER SERIAL. Considering the Tournament of Power will be in the Neutral Space... yeah, somewhere besides Earth sounds good. To HFIL! "...and get some fire in your belly!" Fire in your back, you mean. Literally "back tingles". Why am I always surprised at how thin Cabba is? ARE YOU FEELING IT NOW, MR. KRABS? Clearly she's trying too hard to transform. Does it count as being racist if the Saiyans themselves are the ones calling each other various monkey and primate names? These two should just fuck already. Turns out sadness and self-doubt is her trigger. FEM BROLY! It's a little something we like to call "Legendary Super Saiyan". Random eyecatches! I had a feeling that imp was a spy. Welcome to Hell for those who'd actually like the base flavor. It's his tree. WEN KALE? You can't not love watching Fem!Broly in action. You really lucked out this time, Cabba. Everybody can do the Destructo Disk, it seems. [threatening neck cracks] That was a surprisingly quick turnaround. I'm surprised Chris Ayres can still scream like that after getting his lungs replaced. That palms-open pose is honestly pretty cool. The good news is you can ring people out, so you can at least pretend they're dead once they're outta bounds. BABA KNOWS ALL. I don't think I've seen her place before, so it's actually a surprise to know she lives out in the desert. Which universe was the yellow rat from again? "...the 4th Universe..." Thanks, narrator. The Japanese version of Boogie Back is actually kinda nice. MEGALOBOX - I like that ref's traffic officer helmet; it's a nice touch. Like that, a nickname is born. It's still my personal belief that those things he's snacking on are wasabi peas. "Gearless? Are you serious?" SEMI-BULLHORN. I wonder if that guy's actually ever murdered someone in the ring. SHIT COUNT: 1. How ironic that the one time Nanbu doesn't want him to take the fall, he's down for real. REPLY TO ANGEL 2: "I'm pretty sure Joe's got a concussion." Oh, so that's what that POV effect is... Unintentional comic relief is the best comic relief. Heh, pulled him back just to give him his mouthguard. I assume this father had a temporary case if constadeath, considering his head is Abe Lincoln. Damn, these fighting sports crowds are savage. Hey, that's a wrestling move! Clearly the thing to do is force him to use up the rest of his fouls. "Your strategy is bad and you should feel bad!" Well at least he's trying to hold back, unlike your average kid. So the solution is, don't listen to your brain! Hot damn these fights really leave you no room for comment. And so the stealth supporters finally show themselves. What a dump, this place. Sleep-insulting. [cue the Montage song] This is a good way to get past all the obvious wins. She recognizes that guy! Cool name, so which one of you's the titular "Nowhere Man"? Speak of the Devil x 2. This can't be good if even Nanbu's scared shitless. BLACK CLOVER - Welcome to season 2, bitches! Narrator, you should know damn well that Finral ran off to hit on random women instead of joining the others in their report. "My mouth is moving, but no words seem to be coming out..." [boners for Yuno intensify] God this show's opening themes are great. TRIPLE STAAAAAARE. For someone whose screentime is mostly eating, Charmy's pretty fun when it counts. Oh Yami, you truly are the saving grace for this show's haters. Asta's shoujo eyes creep him right the fuck out. Wait, when did that one guy make that armor for himself? I, too, liked Bell better when she wasn't able to talk. "I'm surrounded by idiots." Oh hey, I remember these guys. A steam snail? Oh it's mucus, that is so much worse. Good job causing property damage while taking out that guy, Finral's brother. He's Dimestore Griffith, standing still and being creepy is what he does. "Welp, there goes my magic." Sucks to be Lotus. He speaks for the trees, and the trees say the Diamond Kingdom sucks. REPLY TO ANGEL 3: "Isn't this how Fern Gully ended?" Either that or A Troll in Central Park. Mysteltainn, you say... Squirrels are dicks. Two gimmicks at once are better than five-plus, change my mind. And then Yami was Tarzan. You lost so many soldiers because you were distracted, numb-nuts. PERFECT LANDING, 10/10. [boners for Yuno resume intensifying] Beauty has no place in a magic dogfight. Oh yeah, it has been a while since they last saw one another. Truly they're the friendliest of the three teenage Shonen Jump rivalries on the block. Good looks for days. Oh Klaus, you so tsundere. He may not have his arms open, but he can always kick. You're way out of your league here, ginger Hercule. And then he was a tree. SUDDENLY LOTUS. And Yami too! "That's my name, don't wear it out." Regardless of what the doujins say, Yami's straight as a board. JOESTAR SECRET TECHNIQUE, GO! That really is a nice view from up here. He's not a cute girl, so him unmasking don't bother me none. This ED is pretty catchy in itself. HUNTER x HUNTER - Of all the non-ant characters in this arc I'd have expected to get character development, Palm was one of the last. That said, good for her! Knuckle what the hell are you doing. If that means he can still beat his ass without prejudice, then that's fine by him. Trust me, dude, Gon's mind isn't gonna be at ease for a loooooooong while. That's very unlike Pouf to just want to talk. You're not even part of this conflict, and yet you still drive a very hard bargain, Gon. That is the most disturbing O-face I've ever seen. SHAIAPOUF, OUT! His decision to get outta dodge isn't the only thing that's disturbing around here. Pitou may be a cat, but Gon's a tiger in comparison. That kid is way smarter than he lets on. This arc is all about the mental chess. You have so little faith in your so-called subordinates, Netero, and that's what's truly disturbing around here. The King really needs some shoes. MEDITATION TIME. Netero is the true master of the one-hit KO. ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA! I can tell what you're saying is deep, but I can't tell exactly what it means. Welcome to the underground tomb, with open bar. If it's specifically for him, it must've taken a damn long time to construct. THE HEART.

PokeNirvash Posted January 20, 2019 Author Share Posted January 20, 2019 On the topic of Selkie, I've noticed that Ray Hurd's been in a lot more Toonami shows than usual recently. On top of his recurring role as Space Lorax... ...he voiced a spotted seal man last week and Ginger Hercule over the past two. Almost makes up for us not getting to hear him as Kizaru.

It's nice to feel for a moment like we aren't as cold and dead inside as season 5 Dean Winchester. I'm not far enough in my reading to know who the character you named in your earlier spoiler is, but spoiler: Spoiler mmm, Mandaly. Another twofer. I haven't watched last week's MP 100 yet, so it's just the old episode there. DBS - When I looked at the scheduled recordings, this was set to record, but when I got up a little before midnight, it wasn't on the dvr, so I had to C-roll it. Interesting. If Buu sleeps for more than a few seconds, he's out for months. That may have played a part in Bibidi being able to seal him way back when. Aw, that was cute. It was fun to see Goten, Marron and Trunks eager to see baby Bulla. I'm not sure about the wisdom of letting Pilaf be part of the babysitting crew, though. Eh, Mai and Shuu probably keep him in line. Yep, Goku's lies found him out. I'll agree that Krillin probably would've agreed even if he knew the truth from the start, but it was funny to see Beerus threaten him into it. Had Bulma not stepped up to cover the cost for 18, a grateful Mr. Satan probably would. Aside: Sometimes a co-worker will play some hard rock or metal cds on the in-area stereo system, and another co-worker will call it devil-worship music. I correct the latter one, saying I'd never heard the phrase "hail Satan" in any of the songs, and since the former co-worker likes anime and is familiar with TFS's abridged treatment of DBZ, I said we have that as a little joke that only he and I get. The next time the latter mentions it, I think I'll say, "what? They haven't said anything about Hercule." Maybe I'll term it Videl's dad or Pan's grandpa. Hooray, I have options. Wait a minute, Universe 3. You've specifically built or modified robotic warriors for the fight. I feel like that verges on disqualification-level cheating. Sure, there's nothing forbidding robotic warriors, but if the Zenis don't determine them to be truly alive, then the other universes' fighters can destroy them with impunity, should they be capable of it, without fear of disqualification. When we have fighters that can blast holes in hillsides (or mountains), I have trouble believing that machines will be able to stand up to the abuse headed their way. It seems like a losing strategy to me. Now, if almost all the inhabitants of Universe 3 are robotic in nature, then that's different, because that's what they'd have available for the team, but otherwise, I think flesh and blood fighters would be the wiser choice, provided they aren't vastly weaker than the robots. Caulifa's training into how to go Super Saiyan was quick. While it took righteous fury for Goku and Gohan (well, for SS2 for Gohan, anyway) and the threat of imminent death for Vegeta from something as unrelenting as a meteor bombardment of his location, it turns out that a careful analysis of the way the energy flow felt for Cabba was enough to tell Caulifa how to do it. I feel like Kale will be able to do it as well, provided she stops being too timid to try. So, yeah, Kale was able to pull off Super Saiyan, but she was more like the overwhelming berserker of old which Frieza feared enough to attempt genocide on the Saiyans. It might be the greenish tinge to her aura, or it might be her bulking up, but she reminded me of Brolly. Frieza would find the "no killing" rule to be bothersome, but holding out the possibility of getting to wish himself back to life as incentive was shrewd on Goku's part, even if he did say Frieza would have to be the tournament m.v.p. to get the Super Dragonballs. Boruto - I'm not sure whether Mitsuki was a clone grown in a tank or just genetically altered, but he's clearly not a purely natural-born human. I guess I can understand Boruto's point about the Hokage. Being Hokage is something that absorbs all of Naruto's time and attention, so Boruto hates what that position has taken from him - the loving dad that spent time with his actual family. However, we must remember that, as an orphan, Naruto doesn't really have a proper frame of reference for what balance between work and family life would be. When he was just a ninja of high-level skills (in the present of Shippuden, he has at least jonin-level skills, but he hasn't properly gone through the rank promotions, so he's technically still a genin), he would've been involved in missions, planning meetings and report writing, but now he has to go through everyone else's paperwork, has more meetings, and must maintain diplomatic relations with the other Villages, and that simply takes a lot more time. I didn't count the time elapsing, but I feel like it didn't take over 50 seconds for Boruto to make his clones and boost Denki and Mitsuki to catch Denki and pull him up to the top of that wall. I feel like they could've finished as a team in the time limit, and thus been the only ones to pass the team exercise here, but they needed to make everyone feel like the inexperienced beginners they are. We know that ninjas other than Naruto can make clones, so I'm a bit surprised that it isn't commonplace to leave two clones at the office and go home at the end of the day. When the justu is released, the user would know everything the clone knew and did. I feel like this is a cheat that Kakashi would've mentioned to his successor as Hokage. It's a bit disappointing that Naruto doesn't use it more often to have more family time. I was disappointed to learn that Sumire was behind the Ghost attacks, and I don't understand why she, who has lived in the peace following the Fourth Great Shinobi War, would be dedicated enough to her father's Foundation cause to do this. My guess is that there was some serious indoctrination/brainwashing in her early life. I hope that Boruto is skilled enough at talk no jutsu to bring her around, but she'll still face serious consequences, i.e. intense interrogation and imprisonment, for her multiple attacks on citizens of Konoha. Of course Mitsuki would be willing to take the easiest resolution method, killing Sumire. He clearly hasn't spent enough time around Boruto yet. MHA - I can understand the doctors not sugar-coating Iiida's diagnosis so he wouldn't be surprised if he does have nerve damage to his left hand, but there's still the possibility that he will recover fully. We can hope for the best. As for his selected course of action and the motivation behind it, yeah, he did accept that his heart was in the wrong place, and he needs to better himself as a person before he can truly be a hero. That was a creepy video. I suspect that this All for One that All Might and Gran Torino discussed was also at the scene (in a building? On a building? I'm not sure) gathering video surveillance for both intelligence purposes regarding the next generation of heroes and for what we saw in the video, i.e. a propaganda piece, which, judging from the end of the episode, has worked to draw more recruits for the League of Villains. I don't think Handy would have the maturity to plan for the media coverage to focus on Stain in order to guide other like-minded people to the League, so I think it's more likely that his superior would be behind that plan, even if he wasn't at the scene recording the last rant from Stain personally, which I think he was. In the manga, I was left with the impression that Stain had pre-existing burn scars that he got from Endeavor at some point in the past, so I'm not sure how much of his burn injuries are fresh and how much are delicate tissue that was irritated. I can understand the official government position of needing to control dangerous Quirks, and I can understand the need to investigate situations where non-licensed Quirk-users do use them and damage to persons or property occurs. That's a very real consideration in the world of concealed firearms for personal defense: you are accountable for every round you fire, so you must be certain that the use of potentially deadly force is justified, and even then you'll still be subject to arrest pending investigation. If the use of force was within legal parameters, no charges will be filed, but you'll still be in custody or on bond until that determination is made. However, I fully support Shouta's position that Iida's intervention saved the life of Native, i.e. someone under attack by an armed assailant, and both Izuku and his (Shouta's) actions kept the same assailant from overcoming Iida and killing both him and Native. The use of Quirks by these three students accomplished the defense of life from an armed aggressor's actions. If Japanese law makes no provision to use violence to defend another from an aggressor, then that, to me, is a problem in the law. It flies in the face of the natural right to defend one's life or safety and the extension of that principle in intervening on the behalf of another who is incapable of accomplishing it alone. Yes, there is the legal wrinkle that it is difficult to determine whether the person in need of aid is a faultless victim of the other party's violence, but in this case, Stain's history of deadly violence and his present rants about killing frauds made it clear that he was the aggressor. Yes, Izuku, you did talk to a girl on the phone, and a cute one with a great personality at that. Your mom would be so happy if you got Ochako as a girlfriend. "Woof." Public relations is clearly not Bakugo's thing. Gunhead did a good job saying each part of the movement as he did it and what its purpose was. Ochako has found herself a good instructor in this internship. Some internships (Kendo and Momo with Uwabami) were more glamorous than others (Kirishima and 4x Tetsu with Fourth Kind), but I do remember them being shown at least briefly in the manga. Tsuyu's story, on the other hand, I don't recall at all, but it was fun on the whole. I don't like that they kept calling the antagonists "stowaways," though. They were looking to move goods illegally, and that makes them smugglers, if not pirates (possibly both), MP 100 - It was a little painful to watch this episode. Emotionally, there was Ritsu's rejection of his brother early in the episode, but I was glad to see that when Mob was getting thrashed, Ritsu did show that he still cared about his brother by offering to go with the guy so he'd stop hurting Mob. It was also tough to watch Mob, who is a genuinely nice guy and a likeable person, get beaten so badly as he tried to protect his brother, which was a commendable thing to do when we saw that Ritsu, even with his new powers, couldn't defend himself from his attacker. Wow, Mob is a tough guy. He took a serious beating, but kept trying to protect Ritsu. I'm not sure how an aerosolized sedative was able to get through his telekinetic barrier, but whatever it is that lives in him and seeks to use his power lived up to the scary name White Tee Poison, which I thought was actually Whitey Poison, but that's my mistake of mis-hearing things. I feel like there are shenanigans to be called here. Yes, both Mob and the dude were using their powers not only to block the other's attacks, but also to cushion their impacts against hard surfaces, but the way that Mob's face got bloodied when hitting the ground and the dude lay slumped in the wreckage of the wall says to me that both of those impacts were enough to overcome the cushioning of their powers. A year or so back, I walked out my front door and down the steps when they were icy. I slipped and hit my face on the concrete. It wasn't the first thing to hit, and so it didn't take the full force of the fall, but I still had a scrape with swelling and a bruise. That was just the force of gravity, and it still took me a moment to start getting up slowly. Mob's face was much more damaged than mine. He has no apparent history of being toughened up though fighting, so this should've been every bit as shocking to him as, if not more than, my fall was to me. I also don't have a history of fighting, but I do experience bumps to the head by heavy, moving metal objects at work at a rate I would describe as more than infrequently, so I do know what uncomfortable collisions are. Then there's the dude and the wall, which was broken by the force of the impact. Yes, it was spread across his whole body, but he sure looked unconscious there. Maybe his cohort was in telepathic communication with him to "shout" him awake, but I feel like he was back in action far too quickly after experiencing car-crash-level forces on his body. MB - To the surprise of no one, Yuri handled Jnk (I'm not sure whether I'll stick with this name or call him Joe. We'll see) with relative ease. Jnk may be better than the rest of the guys he (Jnk) has fought, but Yuri has what looks like actual skill and talent and has real, quality training. I spotted that Yuri looked at Jnk's feet as he approached to know what he'd do. Now, just because I'm aware of the concept doesn't mean I'd be able to apply it through correct interpretation or reacting quickly enough, and that's what I mean by Yuri having actual skill and talent. Still, I can't deny Jnk's toughness and tenacity. He got up, albeit once not in time for the ten-count, and was ready to keep going. Jnk played a dangerous game with his and Pops' life by throwing the plan out the window in k.o.-ing that guy right off with one hit. The yakuza guy made it clear that while repayment would be preferable, death would be an acceptable consolation prize if Jnk's future matches in Megalonia don't pay back the debt several times over. A forged identity, while it looked relatively easy for the forger, isn't the kind of help that comes cheaply. Jnk needs to pay more attention when he's out riding. I got a bit of a HxH flashback to Netero challenging Gon and Killua, but saying he'd only use, if memory serves, one leg in evading them, but Gon did make him use the other leg by the end of the night and called that a win. It was at least a moral victory for Jnk that he made Yuri use his right hand to block, and I feel like that stung Yuri's pride a bit that he wasn't able to make good on his boast. The street urchin kids were crafty, but clearly being cheated, so good for the one kid for stepping up to help Joe. Joe was a good dude to repay the unrequested favor by knocking out the thug. While it's preferable that the new gear overloaded and caught fire while not on Joe, I feel like they didn't do enough research or study of the manual if they put incompatible power units into it. Joe's first fight was rough, but he got to where he needed to be mentally for his gimmick to work. It shows that while he may not have as much power, he is more maneuverable, and he's still punching dudes in their unprotected (by helmets or pads, that is) faces/heads with what are still, presumably, armored gloves. Well, crap. It looks like the next guy will be out not only to win, but also to hurt Nanbu by mauling Joe. JoJo: Diamond - What the heck, Koichi? Why would you willingly be around Rohan after what he did to you? I'd advise you to stay as far away from that guy as you can. He can solve his map problem on his own. I'm not sure whether to call it a time slip or a dimensional pocket, but Koichi and Rohan got themselves into trouble going down that street. I'm not sure why none of them thought on their own to go back the way they came, but maybe it's good that they didn't. The girl was cute. It's a shame she was murdered when Rohan was a young kid. I can understand him possibly blocking himself from recalling such a terrible thing when he was so young, but it did reveal a strange wrinkle in Heaven's Door's limitations, that it can't tell him things that happened when he was involved. Rohan having history with her did explain why she called him "little Rohan." Regarding whatever supernatural force that would try to keep people from leaving, it sounded a lot like Eurydice having to follow her husband Orpheus out of the underworld, but if he looked back, she'd be trapped there forever. I thought I saw that force grab Reverb and pull it out of Koichi, and it would be part of his spirit. If that's true, then he may no longer have his Stand. The murderer still being around Morioh is creepy, and when I saw the car almost hit (I think?) Koichi, it was obvious that the driver would be the murderer. It got even creepier when the guy was talking to the trophy arm section like it was a living person. Shigechi seemed like an okay dude to start, but that changed when an appreciable amount of money was in play. What I really want to know is what the deal is with his head. That's not hair. Those were spikes on his head. What kind of horrible environmental contamination is around this town that caused that kind of mutation in him? I presume he was born by C-section if he's had those from birth. Hm, Japanese law requires amounts of found money equivalent to a dollar to be turned in to the police. The only part of Josuke's plan that would work in America would be finding a winning lottery ticket, since the cash value of coupons is typically 1/20th of a cent. BC - They mentioned the Spade Kingdom, and this is the second attack by the Diamond Kingdom in the show, so there should also be a Heart Kingdom out there somewhere. I am curious as to what happened to the stone that Asta remembered the bird finding back in Saucy village. It sure would suck for everyone if Midnight Sun got it while everyone but Gordon was gone, meaning they'd have more stones than the Clover Kingdom thinks they have. Wait. I thought Yuno's familiar was named Sylph, not Bell. While it may be at least partly in reaction to Yuno's coldness, she seems to have a harsh personality. Yeah, just send Yami. He's got the whole back-up thing covered. Huh, Yami's only 28. Haaaa, Julius mistook Charmy for Yami's child. Also, Charmy's ploy to get closer to Yuno worked. Get him, girl! Poor Gordon. Everyone thinks he's mad, but he's really mostly sad about being left behind. It really hurt his feelings, but no one can hear him well enough to hear him say it. I don't remember much beyond Mimosa, Klaus and Yuno interacting briefly with Asta before having to get back to healing/protecting civilians, Vangeance (yeah, that name's not suspiciously close to "vengeance" or anything >.> ) trapping a bunch of Diamond Kingdom mages with Wood Style tree magic (I might have seen part of Fern Gully, but I'm not sure about that, so I'll take Ang and Poke's word on the comparison here), and Yami asking Vangeance to take off his mask. Oh, wait. Finral's brother sure has the smug jerk vibe down pat. Flawless execution there, guy. HxH - It was strange to see Killua get emotional over Gon's recent traumatic experiences, but his heart-to-heart with Palm talked some sense into her eventually. Her hair armor reminded me stylistically of Alucard, and that's a good thing. I forget exactly why Gon chopped ten minutes off Pitou's time limit, but I do remember it was in response to something Pouf did or said. The problem here is that Pitou's not the one who will be disadvantaged by this (well, Pitou thinks that's the case, because the C.A. King's wrath is what Pitou truly fears here, thinking there's no way Gon will win), but rather Komugi. You know, the wounded woman/girl whose survival hinges on Pitou repairing her surgically. That means Pitou may not be able to save Komugi's life after all, meaning the whole effort will have been in vain and Gon will have waited for absolutely no purpose. That's both cold and dumb, Gon. The fight between the C.A. King and Netero doesn't look like it's going the way Netro would've wanted. If he's going to rely on heart, then I don't expect a good outcome for him, since he isn't the protagonist. I'm a bit curious as to what Kurapika and Leorio are doing during all of this, but I don't expect we'll see them again in the show. Shippuden - Lots of recycled animation no jutsu in this one, but Shikamaru was able to figure out the traps in the bay, because he bothers to think things through. No, Hinata. I'm willing to give you and Neji credit for you improving your skills. Naruto may have inspired you to get stronger, but you had to put in that work, and your cousin worked with you as well. Congratulations on being placed in charge of the deployed Hyuga units, Neji. Drunk Tsunade was fun to watch, but I feel like it'd be a little terrifying to be around her on a night out like that. Poor Shizune. PTE - What's not to hate about giant rodents? I mean, if you hunt or raise them for food, that's okay, but otherwise, ew, giant rats. I like the Devil Volcano girls' look. I'm not sure how the flower/flour joke would work in Japanese. Maybe it was completely rewritten for the dub, like with the majority of Shin-chan. Popuko's rage being powerful enough to resurrect her is only slightly more amazing than her funeral portrait. Lupin - There's so much wrong with Jigen and Lupin's bet. For one, they're horrible slobs to let garbage pile up in their living space like that. For two, it would be far more difficult to break into a bank than to pick up the garbage in a room. For three, Lupin could probably forge Jigen's drawing on another 100 Euro note, unless Jigen memorized the serial number. For four, there's no guarantee that the note would even be in a vault. It could still be in a teller's drawer, or it could've been given to another customer who cashed a check, meaning it would be in someone's pocket or purse and not in a bank at all. Thus, Lupin winning the bet is malarkey. Talk about plot armor. I feel like even in Italy it would be illegal for the police to open fire on Lupin and Rebecca with automatic weapons when all they could see is that Rebecca had a weapon on her person, but her hands were nowhere near it. It would especially be a problem to do so as they fled when no violence had been used or threatened against them. However, it would also likely be illegal for Rebecca to own an automatic rifle of her own. Speaking of illegal weapons... ARRRR-PEEEE-GEEEEE!! Awwz yeahz, Robson. It's tough to tell the difference between Goemon being asleep and simply sitting there waiting for something to happen which is worthy of his attention. Even if it were a forced dream, I have no idea why Jigen wouldn't dream that he had his trusty revolver on his person. Having now seen the episode before the two-part finale, I feel like that was a set-up to Rebecca being the only one of the principal cast not to best Leonardo, since she required Robson's intervention and Lupin's assistance to escape with her identity undiscovered by the police. Just remember that were this induced sleep to happen all over the country, there would likely be hundreds, if not thousands, of automobile crashes, with a fair portion of them being fatal, and quite possibly, depending upon how far into the air the induction transmission went upward, more than a few airline crashes. It wouldn't surprise me if Leonardo's stunt here killed thousands of people, and since that would be a foreseeable outcome of his deliberate action, he would be the single greatest mass-murderer ever, because he personally enacted his plan unassisted. Rebecca may be no Fujiko, but she's still a darn pretty woman and a good personality match for Lupin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh don't worry, you'll know the exact moment when the new guy shows up to kick Aizawa out of my #2 slot. And yes, agreed. Hero- I love Granpa. Could you not call this boy a cab so he's not hobbling down the street on a broken leg? Bakugo's stuck like that. BOOM. You okay there Ochako? I enjoy Mineta suffering. That would be the first time Todoroki would feel lucky Endeavor showed up. Oh yeah the guy who destroyed your friends' arms is cool. I AM HERE. Obstacle course, go! I'd listen to All Might read the phonebook. Good luck with your busted limbs, kids. So Sero's basically Spiderman isn't he. SURPRISE DEKU, GO. Oh, Bakugo's gonna kill you now. And then he died. Hello there, gratuitous shot of All Might's ass. GODDAMMIT MINETA. Thank you Jiro. I hate that yellow suit so much. EAT THIS. Oh fuck did he take his quirk? Oh thank god. I feel like that example is directly calling me out. Ohhhh that sounds bad. This is just sounding worse and worse as we go. Oh shit, origin story. Okay that actually sounds pretty cool. So we just gotta kick the shit out of All for One then. Someone please give both of them a hug. OHHHH I DON'T LIKE THIS. And I'm already crying. Spending the summer in the woods with all these kids sounds like it'll be hell on earth for Aizawa. Aw fuck it's All for One isn't it. Oh jesus christ All Might literally punched his face off. Mob- Thanks for the vote of confidence, Gimp. STEALTH. Thanks, random drunk man. Oh, you're absolutely going to get stabbed in the back. Surprisingly genre-savvy of this dude. Good luck, Slimer. Gee how could you tell. I can't believe I've ended up not hating Slimer. Oh, this is just our child torture chamber. Well redshirt at least you tried. Aw crap it's fire powers also hi are you cute? Oh, no you're not. Jesus, Avdol really showed a lot of mercy didn't he. Oh that looks painful. Aw shit this guy's got a sword. AW FUCK. Meanwhile, Mob makes friends. Ritzu doesn't fuck around. Oh fuck it's a ginger. Aww he broke her toys. Oh now she's gonna kill you. Sorry Mob you might die here. He's such a good kid. Reigen continues to grow on me. This rescue mission could be going better. SURPRISE SLIMER. You kinda suck at this, Slimer. Alright Mob this is all on your shoulders now. Mob doesn't fuck around. Oh noooo. Hey Mob you okay there buddy? Oh this is not gonna end well. I have never seen a character that set off the soulless ginger alarm in my brain more than this kid. I'm okay with it if Slimer gets eaten. I don't like your odds here, kids. Wait is that fucking Reigen YOU BASTARD I TRUSTED YOU. Boxing- Oh is it time for a tragic backstory? Oh this isn't gonna end well. I don't think this is gonna be a real happy reunion. Excuse you I got first dibs on ruining Joe get in line. You ain't got no legs, Lt. Dan. And after he's done drilling distance he can drill me. Okay but how is any of this Pop's fault? I didn't sign up for emotional impact show I signed up to watch a cute dude punch things. Okay but still none of this is his fault. That's surprisingly nice of you, Dan. Oh jesus this got depressing as fuck. Oh kid you have no idea what's going on. This hurts me. Meanwhile, basketball. You should probably see someone about that PTSD, buddy. It takes a real badass to pull off a butterfly tattoo. Aww the crowd likes him now. It is kinda hard to root against the disabled veteran. Why are you doing this to me, show? Oh that's gonna hurt. Jojo- FUCK YEAH, MONEY. Is this guy a stand user can you just fight him. Even worse than a stand user, he's a banker. Goddammit Josuke. Oh you poor idiots. Oh my god how did none of you even glance at the back. Whelp there goes your money. It'd be easier to just fight the Gun Rats again. That's some quick thinking. Goddammit you gremlin. You only have the money because of Josuke you jackass. Kill him, boys. Thank you Okuyasu. This is my reaction to getting holiday pay at work. Aw fuck. Those things creep me out. Somethin weird's happenin in my pants. Oh that's freaky. KICK HIS ASS, BOYS. Josuyasu confirmed for best ship. I'm amazed fat boy hasn't had a heart attack yet.

It's generous that they're letting him have anything. Don't trust this little bastard. Kill him. Clover- Fuck off, Tinkerbell. Sorry fairy he's gay. I'd be lying if I said I never tried to seduce someone through baked goods. This is obnoxious. Does anyone in this show have a healthy sibling relationship? Meanwhile, Yami and Dimestore Griffith are fucking in a tree. The fuck is that, jizz magic? The fuck are you gonna do you got no arms. Okay mucus magic sounds even more gross. The only thing you best them on is in how many of you I want to see die. Hey there, Cap'n Sexy. You take off your clothes first. Just fuck already. The hell did you do, stick your head in a fireplace? I don't care about this backstory at all. This is a fakeout he's definitely evil. I like that he's so stupid "don't eat stuff off the ground" is legitimate advice. Should I feel offended by how much I have in common with that little one? I mean, at least he's a better person than Sasuke. Hunter- I fear for your life, old man. Okay Grandpa's not fucking around. I'd prefer him to feel pants-shitting fear but I guess admiration works too. Aw crap he figured it out. Buddha's laying the holy smackdown on him right now. Ohh now he's pissed. KICK HIS ASS, GRANDPA. Oh that can't be good. I guess all those days of losing checkers to a blind girl paid off. Now you're just mixing metaphors here. Random thought but I wonder if bug spray would have any affect on this bastard. Aw fuuuck. MY LEG. Dude's got some incredible balance. Oh god what. This is bad this is really bad. I'd say only lasting a minute is no reason to be ashamed but no, it is. AW FUUUUUUUUCK. He's just the Black Knight from Monty Python now. Really the arms were just holding him back. Please tell me this kills that fucker. MOUTH LASER. I think you got him. Ohhhhh he's looking rough somebody get this man some medical attention. OH COME THE FUCK ON YOU GREEN BITCH JUST STAY DOWN. I guess that's a sliver lining? Just die without answering him purely out of spite. That's still a terrible name. Sorry, the old man ran out of fucks to give decades ago. Oh jesus christ what the fuck. He's not wrong, anger is one of my two strongest emotions. Hes not the only one afraid here. Okay that was metal as fuck. Rest in peace, you glorious bastard.

PokeNirvash Posted January 25, 2019 Author Share Posted January 25, 2019 I guess now's a bad time to tell you it's gonna last a whole year this time. DRAGONBALL SUPER - No, an evil laugh does not count as saying what your plan is. TOO MANY MEATS. I understand their anger, but I agree with Goku, they're kinda overdoing it. Thanks, Whis. Wow, so his name really is spelled with no I. Now I know he's lying about them plotting to crush the 9th first. For some reason I really like these outline lighting effects. Based on the logic that Piccolo and the Androids were enemies once, for all you know Frieza did turn over that new leaf Vegeta claims he did. Oh, Geets. Even better is this is a true Monster Island, and not just some peninsula that can get away with the misnomer. That's our Krillin, worrying over nothing. And now for Roshi's real training. He's lucky Yajirobe lived through that; he's a survivor, after all. OH SHIT ROSHI HAS EYES. Oh, Roshi. Nice to know GodTube's a multi-universal thing. But regular Pop-Tarts have frosting and delicious filling, you stupid kid. I like Baba's little ghost companion. This is way more awkward for Krillin than it is for his wife. 17 doesn't even know this kid. WAVES AND ROOOOOOCKS. Just knock 'em into the ocean and let the water pressure do the rest. Yep, these poachers are fucked. There's nothing bad about teamwork, but some people do vouch for it a little hard. Okay, so who gets to tell Roshi that the 10M zeni prize is coming from Bulma and not the Omni-Kings? This fight move sequence was an OG DB homage, right. I love that he's disappointed about the halo still being there. KIDNEY SHOT. Pause... STOMACH PUNCH. These two are so gay for each other. Not the voice I was expecting out of that ghost thing, but it fits. A bulldog leader, as to be expected of the furry universe. "That's classifi-GAH MY SHOULDER!" A welcome party he can kill is just the kind of welcome party Frieza likes. Of course the only one to survive the great existence wipe if and when it happens has a sense of humor about all this. Just because TV Tropes says someone's a Complete Monster, it doesn't mean they can't be likeable to some degree, and Frieza is proof of that. He's a terrible person, but by god is he fun when it counts. Dang, Ayres' understudy really sounds like him now. BORUTO: NARUTO NEXT GENERATIONS - Even in death, Danzo fucks things up for everybody. "What's that?" Aurora Borealis. At this time of year, at this time of day, in this part of the world, localized entirely within the village. If not for those vines, you could have very well done a cannonball into that shallow pool. Okay, so Nue is some time of tiger-monkey-penis snake hybrid. CHENGXI HUANG SAKUGA SPOTTED. Surprise Mitsuki! Those are some honestly thick ropes. It's pinned, so it's working to some degree. Well that jump between scenes wasn't sudden or anything. Wait, if her name is fake, how does that explain her father calling her "Sumire" in that flashback? This chick is Sasuke as fuck. Flo may be the winner at work, but Jamie's clearly the winner in life. BANG. Heroic Sacrifice no Jutsu! Averted apparently, as only his arm got hit. No person could possibly be that good of an actress. Another successful Talk no Jutsu session completed. You're denying yourself too hard, girl. "I wonder what's going on here." I'm sure plenty of others are thinking the same thing, Mitsuki. Your father was a dick; don't be a dick, Sumire. Welp, she's dead. Okay, now the Talk no Jutsu is complete. This portion of the escape reminds me of Bleach for some reason. You know what, I'm so deep into Naruto, all this nonsensical-seeming stuff ain't nothin' to mull over. Though I'm probably saying that because this show is kinda hard to riff on when you're paying more attention than usual. Sai is most def underrated. I'm still trying to figure out what '90s song this BGM clearly ripped off. I like this new ED, can't wait for the finalized version to pop up next week. MY HERO ACADEMIA - Deku's injured hand looks freakishly detailed compared to his everything else, I'll take that as meaning Hori has a hand fetish. I had a feeling his acting senile was just him messing around. I still hate Bakugo as a person, but I love how angry he is now. Tsuyu's pronunciation of "Ochako" comes off a little weird, like how little kids pronounce "chan" as "tan". WHAT'S THIS AURA I'M SEEIN'. Even taking Stain into consideration, Mineta really drew the short end of the stick. The lesson to learn: never think with your second head. Now why would Kaminari of all people be watching the Stain video, hmmmmmm? These boys are so good. WE AMAZING RACE NOW. You know damn well why he's pointing at you, King Explosion Murder. Weird, Jiro sounds more like Mikasa than usual now. Dammit Bakugo keep your Deku hateboner in your leather pants. Stay mad, Bakugo. Well, at least you were in first for a while, which is better than being last throughout. THUMBS UP. Dear Demarco, get better taste in music and anime. Love, PokeNirvash. Oh hey, a random peephole. Mineta's first mistake: talking about peeping out loud by the hole where the girls can hear you. Jiro's just pissed about being left out, as I thought she would be. Ohhhhh this is gonna be serious. Or not. I wasn't expecting Deku Might to not be a Photoshop job. And here's a look inside the SFW portion of Angel's libido. Sounds like Chrollo's Nen ability. And here comes the racism. I gotta admit, this is a very interesting history. So it's entirely possible that Deku did have a Quirk before One for All, but it was so undetectable that it was synonymous with Quirklessness? Fuck yeah, rotoscoped clouds. I guess that one 4channer was right about fanservice and perverted shenanigans happening just before the really dark and important shit hits. First SAO comes back, now All Might's dying. Man, this is not Angel's week. GROUP CAMPING TRIP! And for others, summer school. That's a lotta life support. I recognize that voice and mustache! Holy crap did All Might do that to his face? I imagine he did. MOB PSYCHO 100 - All these blackshirts are dead, and Gasmask Loli Esper knows it. All these grunts sound familiar to various degrees. Super-silent rescue mission, go! Oooh, you almost made it. You're a surprisingly decent man, drunk lackey. Oh hey, porn books and Jew sorcery manuals. Careful, Evil Tim's behind that door. Or maybe it's just a bunch of lame-asses. TEAMWORK! DIMPLE PUNCH! They look more like cryogenic freezer tubes than they do explicit instruments of torture. I'm not sure whether that was a compliment or a dig at Mob, but good advice still. GHEEEEEEEEY. It's so easy to forget that Teru's technically a delinquent. YARE YARE DAZE. These guys. BURN BABY BURN. This dude's fingernails look like that of a bitchy middle-aged woman who puts on too much makeup and treats her dogs with more love than her hypothetical human children. How the turntables. Welp, that dude's dead. Nobody expects shadow clones. I AM THE NIGHT! Doo doo do doo doo... Meanwhile, Mob's in a horror movie. How ironic, that he's been cornered by the girl with Tsubomi's voice. It's amazing how getting possessed by Dimple every now and again has allowed him to be good with psychic stuff on his own. Oh dear god, it's a ginger. I bet you anything he's the temp from HQ. Well that fight definitely ended before it began. Triggered her with just a single push of the button. That is a concerning amount of blood coming from his mouth. Whoever's calling him is likely irrelevant. Mob is the purest boy. Goddammit Dimple. JOESTAR SECRET TECHNIQUE, GO! You fucked up big time, Dimple. I should've known from the voice that the black esper was actually a dude. He's got a dick, so Mob has no qualms about one-shotting him. Oh hey, he found him. Injuring Ritsu is clearly the best way to get Mob emotional. AND MINDFUCKING HIM MAKES IT WORSE, WHO'D HAVE THOUGHT. How do you like them apples, Chin Man? Oh you ginger bastard. Meanwhile, Dimple's playing the most dangerous game, only he's the prey. I HAVE NO NUTRITIONAL VALUE! Welp, they're going back to prison. Wait a minute... Reigen is their boss? This has to be some kind of hilarious misunderstanding, right? ...Right? MEGALOBOX - War is hell, but you don't need me to tell you that. "Stay frosty" sounds awfully childish for a military order. My god, that lady gave birth to a bomb! Welp, he's dead. That whole cold open was pure non-harem early-2000s core. Only unlike the shows of back then, this dude managed to make it outta there alive, somehow. The scars definitely give his face character. The betrayal of expectations is hard-hitting, even if the promos did kinda spoil it. SHIT COUNT: 1. I guess Metatronda was right in that you can learn all kinds of things about sportsmen just from looking stuff up about them online. (It's still my headcanon that Andrei Rublev was not the Rocket G's real name and that on top of his extra weight and facial hair is why no one could put two and two together, though.) Dang, almost got a little misty-eyed there. He's gonna need all the training he can get for this one. Nothing says a post-workout meal than Japanese food. I can understand Nanbu's concern, given those images. And now, without warning, a flashback. PTSD is a bitch, as understatement-y as that sounds. Don't be a Nanbu, do your research. It ain't Megalobox without dog metaphors. Christ, that was difficult to watch. And so the two sides finally meet. No wine does sound like a big deal, even without the page boy screeching. Holy shit I'm older than Joe. Nanbu isn't exactly the most proactive when it comes to taking notice of things detached from what's of high importance. Believing in those who believe in you is a good method to follow. I'd blame him more for his legs getting blown up, he did think that bomb was a baby without taking the time to see if it was ticking away. That stare tells me he's boned. PTSD nightmare, both a good name for a band and something that feels way too real to even those than aren't the ones having it. I bet he regrets getting that tattoo. The VAs for this crowd must love throwing out these lines. Kinda weird that the English and Japanese ones get all caps. Thing #2 Megalobox has in common with Kinky Kunoichi: a comeback of CRT televisions in the late 21st century. And what a waste of a comeback that was. BEWARE THE FLUTTERING BUTTERFLY. That post-shot effect looks like something out of a motion comic. Ending the episode before the ten-count's even finished, now that's just cruel. JOJO'S BIZARRE ADVENTURE: DIAMOND IS UNBREAKABLE - Shit's about to get violent up in this week. Yes, that's how many zeros a measure in the millions typically has. MENACING BANKER. "Dimwitted ding-dongs", this dude reeks as much of a Saturday morning cartoon villain as they do foul players. EQUALLY MENACING SECURITY GUARD. You bunch of dumbasses, you three. This dude isn't even a STAND user and yet he's got all the menace of one, goes to show how good a writer Araki is. Changing up the kanji, subtle move. That whole scene was wonderful dumb fun. Now that that's cleared up, time for Little Shige's true colors to show... Heh, "roly-poly shitbag". Welp, Okuyasu's done with this stuff. MANHANDLING. Yes, a complicated moral conundrum. I love their stupid money handshake. DOUCHEBRO. "Somethin' weird's happening in my pants!" Goddammit Okuyasu why'd they have to make the chief dub writer your VA? FORCED BULLHORN. Oooooooh, gangrene and missing chunks of flesh, not something I'd want happening to my legs. They JosuYasu now. Will Shino's suffering ever cease? CGI Shigechi's more disturbing than regular Shigechi, and that's saying something. Quick, throw one of those beer bottles at him! Porcu-prick. That Austin Powers reference is surprisingly timely for this show's era setpiece. You gotta love JoJoposing. Welp, they're paralyzed. Huh, guess that beer was important after all. UNDERAGE DRINKING IN ANIME: ONLY TOONAMI. Welp, there goes his eye again. Shit, I should be more careful about my eyelids from now on. But that's only 5000 yen. Okay, "beta-boys" is a little much. PECKING ORDER~. That's a bold strategy, Josuke, let's see if it pays off. SHIT COUNT: 9. Dang, Josuke and Okuyasu are kinda mean drunks. Not that Shigechi doesn't deserve it. TEAMWORK! Shigechi really is the Eddy of their little group. BLACK CLOVER - It's been a while since we've gotten a good visual OP edit. The bird's moving with his shoulders. I love how mutually friendly these two are as rivals compared. I hope nosebleeding in shock out the mouth doesn't become a thing. I'm not used to Charmy acting all womanly like this. Her food love is definitely more tolerable when detached from everyone else's tired quirks. She thinks they slept together. Forget Asta/Noelle/Mimosa, this is the love triangle Elfie should've dropped the show like a hot potato over. Foreheadbutting fight. This is both fun and painful at the same time, so yeah, it sums up how I feel about Black Clover perfectly. And here comes Finral's jerkass brother. It's a family matter, Asta, it's best you keep your distance. Oh hey, Mucous Speedwagon's still alive. "Watch this, Yuno." "Okay." TEAMWORK! (I've been saying that a lot today...) Consider him unimpressed. Finally, we get to the unmasking portion of the evening events. Oh boy, more Midnight! And Reigen too, I guess. Did Josh Grelle adjust his voice to sound like Jerry Jewell's on purpose for this scene? Dang, his scars are worse than Aragaki's. So was his mother's vagina on fire when she gave birth to him or what? There's not a whole lot of reasons for why the upper half of your head would be scarred for literally your entire life. It's all about rags to riches and back again in Black Clover. That Wizard King is really a cool guy, I can see why everyone wants his job. True, it's tacky, but knowing the Wizard King made it, I'd say it now has a dorky sense of appreciability to it. Wow, things really are calmer whenever Asta isn't around. Aaaaaaaand I'm now convinced that they just had Jerry Jewell voice him for the sake of consistency for this episode only, at least. Yes, let's bully Finral together. "Guess things have gotten pretty quiet. Asta, start talking again." "Sounds good." Yet ironically, it's Charmy and Sylph who are the loud ones here. What kind of dessert is that even? Hey, it's not like Yuno chose to be Asta's friend, that's just what happens when you grow up under the same roof for 14 years. Eat shit, Langris. You missed too much, and yet, you missed nothing at all. Neat, they're mountain people. They've got a black man on their team, the other side is totally screwed. And hey, I recognize that one dude. NOT-FORCED BULLHORN. Yep, he's Jerry Jewell now. HUNTER x HUNTER - FUN FACT: I had no idea that THE HEART was referring to Ulquiorra's death until long after the fact. Well that metaphor for battle sure is unintentionally comical. You've got the right idea, but the wrong age. We're playing by Gungi rules now. But those are scisso-nevermind, those are definitely needles down there. Wow, I'm really not getting any opportunity to comment this time. Then again, with a fight this awesome, that should be expected. OFF WITH HIS LEG. He willed his own wound shut, that's crazy. As they say, talking is a free action in shounen anime. And there goes his arm. ONE ARM MAN. What a surprisingly gentle way to die. How long ago was Killua's encounter with it again? He's flipping him off with his prayer hand. The Christians aren't gonna like that one. He actually looks his age now, how bout that. Well... at least he's injured. Finally, I can start calling him Meruem now. That's a creepy face. I can understand why even the King Meruem is afraid. That's our story, Netero's dead, goodnight. I'd be triggered, but... thank god it detonated at a military testing site and not anywhere else. NARUTO SHIPPUDEN - For those unaware, I had a cable outage last Sunday that affected my family all morning, and apparently it began halfway through Naruto, so my recording is incomplete. Guess I'll be watching it on my own time, then. It was probably a stupid filler anyway, nothing worth sharing here with you uncaring people.

PokeNirvash Posted January 26, 2019 Author Share Posted January 26, 2019 Tonight on Toonami, Frieza gets a little last-minute training in against an armada of assassins from the 9th universe, unlike his father Boruto actually gets to choose who's on his three-man squad, even superheroes in training have to take midterm exams, Reigen makes a sudden guest appearance at Claw's hideout (presumably to ask Mob why he hasn't been answering his calls), Joe realizes he stands less of a chance against Aragaki than he thought, Yukako gets a makeover in the hopes it'll make Koichi avoid her less, Asta receives a diagnosis on his broken arms, Pouf and Youpi arrive to see just what kind of aftermath Netero's fight against the King currently known as Meruem has wrought, and the war preparations give Konohamaru an unimportance complex. 11:00 - Dragonball Super #95 - Most Heinous!

Hunter- Random thought but I wonder if bug spray would have any affect on this bastard. That's not really a difficult accomplishment. You might have to go into Nazi vampires and their allies to find worse people than Sauce. Ang: MHA spoiler - Spoiler I think I've gotten to the point in the manga of meeting the character you called naked Tintin. Is his actual name Mirio Togata? The phasing dude? A year of Kirito shenanigans? I'm not exactly thrilled, but I'll probably watch anyway. DBS - I'm glad I get along better with my sister than 17 and 18 get along. Still, he is an uncle, and he really should get his niece's name right. The military defectors thinking that 17 taking vacation was their chance are in for trouble if they try anything. At least the one guy who suggested they think twice since they saw the boys flying was paying attention. If they do invade the preserve, I think 18's comment about Krillin being surprised by Marron's strength was telegraphing her walloping at least one of them. I remembered before Master Roshi mentioned it, but him training again with Master Korin meant that the former had to climb the tower to reach the sanctuary, because Roshi never learned to use his chi to fly. That took young Goku several days back in DB, and Roshi had said that Goku had surpassed him in power at that point. This means that Roshi at this point was able to climb the tower in under a day. If the 4th and 9th Universes' Destroyers didn't send at least one hitman of Hit's caliber, then they were wasting their time and at least one hitman's life. I smiled when Baba called Goku's present a re-gift and hoped the receipt was still in the box. Oh, hey, it looks like the ring construction is finally making progress and not simply being a recycled animation no jutsu segment to have something on the screen while the narrator talks. Boruto - I had forgotten that Boruto, Mitsuki, Sumire and Nue went into a pocket dimension. Good, talk no jutsu worked to convince Sumire that revenge for her family being persecuted due to her father's affiliation with the Foundation was pointless. If anything, it would've proven that the Foundation and it's legacy were dangerous to the rest of Konoha. I didn't expect Sai to step in and offer to advocate for Sumire, but it is fitting that he would, because he's someone who was able to overcome the stigma of his Foundation past. I'm willing to grant that Nue could've impressed on Sumire. Thinking about it, I'm not sure why it's spelled Sumire rather than Tsumire. MHA - We have a bit of a Michael Keaton Batman moment here, since All for One forcing a stolen power-up Quirk on his supposedly Quirkless brother made it possible for the brother to create One for All in order to oppose his brother's criminal schemes. I do like that this is a legacy of conflict which Izuku didn't know he was joining when he gained One for All. He has now inherited the struggle that none of his predecessors could finish. I liked the moment when Gran Torino asked who Izuku was and made him realize that he must own his hero name. It's that confident declaration that he is there. MP 100 - I still haven't watched these. MB - I didn't expect a story highlighting the plight of maimed veterans and their struggles with P.T.S.D., but here it was. Nothing I can say about that would do justice to the topic, so I'll leave the show's treatment to stand on it's own merit. I feel like Nanbu had some depression as well after hearing that Aragaki was k.i.a., which probably contributed to the failure of his gym. Aragaki having Gear that compensates for his reduced mobility may be lesser in power, but it still packs a wallop. I think Joe will be able to beat the ten-count. I was glad to hear the audience cheer for both sides. It means that Aragaki has respect for fighting on equal terms despite his prosthetics, and Joe is building a fanbase for the skill that his gimmick requires. I don't think I've mentioned it previously, but this show gives me an SC vibe, though I can't quite put my finger on what about it reminds me of that show. JoJo: Diamond - I don't understand why the boys had to claim the ticket at a bank. Maybe that's just how lotteries in Japan are run. As to the troubles they had in claiming the money, they should've been honest that they found it on the ground. Unless the same aspect of Japanese law which requires amounts greater than 100 Yen to be turned in to the police would prevent them from claiming ownership of a found winning ticket, meaning that it would revert to the person whose name was on the ticket or the State, then they could've claimed it without trouble. However, since a name and telephone number were written on the ticket, then that would be a problem, since it would be claiming a specific someone else's money, i.e. stealing from that person. Also, had they read the ticket thoroughly, meaning looking on the back for a name, first, then they could've avoided a lot of trouble by changing or erasing (part of) the name. However, that would've meant that they would've knowingly been stealing a prize that rightfully belonged to a specific person they could've tracked down. As it worked out, we could attribute Josuke's actions with C.D. to panicking while trying to avoid getting in trouble. I don't understand why Josuke and Okuyasu didn't swat Harvest away with their hands. As Stand users, they should be able to hit another Stand. The power and energy of their Stands comes from them, after all. With that in mind, Harvest shouldn't have been able to injure them so badly, and especially not Josuke's eyelid, which might require stitches to close the cut. I recognize the cleverness of the trap Josuke set for Shigechi in tearing up the ticket get him to send Harvest after it, leaving himself defenseless. However, there was a better way to play that out. Had Josuke held onto one fragment of the ticket, then they wouldn't have needed Harvest to bring them back after smacking sense into Shigechi, because C.D. restoring it would've brought back the other fragments. I feel like Okuyasu doesn't use The Hand as well as he could. Unless I missed some detail that The Hand can't move beyond a certain distance from Okuyasu, then its limited range shouldn't be as big an issue as it was made out to be here. Taking the above into consideration, the only reason the boys had as much trouble with Harvest as they did is because they willfully fought it stupidly. BC - The Bulls teamwork against the slime general was good, but I laughed when Asta pulled a Zoro with his blade. Shameless, show. The argument between Charmy and Sylph was a bit tedious, but at least Charmy was able to introduce herself properly to Yuno. Get him, girl. Vangeance having a burned face doesn't convince me that he isn't Licht. Think about it. Licht uses light magic. What do human eyes detect? That's right. Either the disfigured appearance or Licht's flawless appearance could be accomplished with a spell to project the light of the desired disguise. Whichever one is his real face doesn't matter. HxH - MAL had already spoiled me as to the C.A. King's name being Meruem, so that was no big deal to me. What bothered me was that in the battle of attrition between him and Netero, Meruem should've sustained massive damage. Each impact was capable of damaging a stone pillar. Sure, Meruem could use some of his nen to shield himself, but the impacts were enough to move him at great speed. On top of that, he was already moving at great speed under his own power, and he was changing direction rapidly with each impact from Netero's Bodhisattva. That means his body was experiencing tremendous G-forces. He may be strong, but his internal organs are (presumably) still composed of squishy flesh, and they're encased in his very hard bones. The only way to reduce those stresses on his vital organs is to slow down the changes in direction, and that looked like exactly the opposite of Meruem's strategy to learn Netero's move patterns. He may have a lot of power, but he's still made of flesh that can and should've suffered catastrophic damage from simple changes in momentum. He may be dying more slowly than Netero, but he should still be dying. It doesn't matter that he had the nen of hundreds of people infused into him. He's suffered enough trauma to counsel kill each lifeforce that went into him, even if we count it that way, which we shouldn't, because he only has one physical body, which should be liquefied internally by the end of the fight, including the brain he used to analyze Netero's movement patterns. Netero showed some seriously freaky muscle control. I think it was in character for him to give his life to (try to?) kill Meruem. Shippuden - Naruto's imposter was a liar and on the dumb side, but he had a good heart. His accomplice/friend made a mistake in the fake headband, since the leaf was angled the wrong way. I wouldn't have noticed right away, but the crudeness of the gouging made me compare it to the actual headbands. I can't blame the mercenary ninjas for trying to abduct the impostor for ransom, but they should've known that was too easy and have had at least a description of Naruto's attire. Surely word-of-mouth regarding the increasingly-famous Naruto would mention how his orange jumpsuit doesn't look anything like other Konoha shinobi uniforms. PTE - The first time this episode aired, I missed that Pipimi arm wrestled not only not!Robocop, but a Terminator was next after that. Bob Epic drum solo truly was epic. I can't understand much spoken French, but I think I'd be able to read a menu well enough not to order something I'd be unwilling to eat.

Lots of Naruto/Boruto names come from various one-word Japanese terms, with Sumire's coming from 菫, meaning "violet". (All "tsumire" gets me according to Nihongodict is 摘入, or "fish balls/dumplings".) Given Sumire's hair color, her namesake is fitting. For one, there's the hip-hop styled soundtrack. For another, and I'm paraphrasing 4chan here, there's Joe looking like "a more focused Mugen". The Queen actually namedropped Meruem's name on her deathbed ages ago, but as it wasn't recapped and was pretty quiet, I can see how that might've slipped by you.

Me dragging myself over to watch SAO for an entire goddamn year: 6 hours ago, FoleyisGood149 said: Ang: MHA spoiler - Hide contents I think I've gotten to the point in the manga of meeting the character you called naked Tintin. Is his actual name Mirio Togata? The phasing dude? Spoiler Yes. Yes it is. Sexy Vault Boy phased into my life with a personality like a golden retriever and the body of a god to replace the abs-shaped hole All Might's retirement left in my heart and I thank him every day. Hero- I'm guessing Poke just passed out. Holy shit her old outfit. A rare moment where Mineta's not awful. Half you kids are gonna die. Happy Momo is adorable. Bakugo's surprisingly smart. I really wanna see Douche Rogue try to borrow Deku's quirk and get his arms blown off. Thank you Yaoi Hands. Oh good the robots should be easy enough. It's gonna break me when All Might inevitably dies. Okay but what DOESN'T piss Bakugo off. That's just excessive, Momo. Bakugo is absolutely screaming math at him in a Denny's. MOUSE. Okay, I guess I'm into this. CAN I VOLUNTEER TO FIGHT ALL MIGHT NEXT. High Noon's got a point. You really put the girl with super ears against the teacher whose power is SCREAMING? Oh, Mineta's going to die. And then they put bondage cuffs on All Might, just to fuck with me. Seriously can I take on Bondage Might after they're done? Recovery Girl doesn't get paid enough. DIABETES HULK, GO. I love Cementoss. I'd have great compatibility with All Might. Well kids at least you tried. Animal Friends, go! I'm sure Ectoplasm is a nice guy but he's fucking terrifying to look at. Mob- If he's not the boss how the hell did he get in there? It's nice that he cares about him. Awww kids. AWWWWWWWWWWW HUGGING. Aw crap you're stuck. Mob is such a great kid. I'm not crying shut up. Calm down, Gimpo. Shut up, ginger. I can't believe Reigen just casually strolled in here because everyone else is so stupid. Okay this is fantastic. Alright now things are just going way too well. "I can't hear you." This is cracking me right the hell up. Oh, now shit hits the fan. Damn, Gimpo is playing hardball here. Okay I kinda fucking love Reigen. You dick. Please don't hurt my son. THANK YOU REIGEN. Drop kicks are always okay that's rule #1. I am losing my shit with this fight. Whelp, we're boned. Oh this is awesome. RIP hair, again. Uh guys where's Slimer? Reigen I appreciate your concern but just let the kid wreck some shit. Awwwwww. Awww little Mob. I genuinely did not expect Reigen to be a good person when this show started. OH COME ON THIS WAS NOT MY FAULT. Boxing- Meanwhile, Joe's gonna die. Hug the angst out of him. I don't know enough about fantasy boxing are dick punches allowed? This train's on the way to Broken Faceville. Are you trying to trigger his PTSD here? That's the most hardcore butterfly tattoo I've ever seen. It's really hard to crack jokes in these episodes about traumatic war veterans. Joe you're still gonna need your face after the fight. Oh hey, he landed a punch. Aw crap he woke up. Yeah an unbreakable spirit is nice but you can't throw punches when your body is broken in half. Well that's anticlimactic. Awwww the crowd is still cheering for both of them. Oh, his legs are broken. Well this is depressing. Someone please give this guy a hug. That was the shittiest good luck charm to ever exist. Aaaand I'm crying. Really, this old guy? This guy looks like a real douche. Jojo- Maybe you shoudln't have kidnapped him and then tried to kill him. Hey lady can I get an apointment here? Oh shit she's hot. Sigh. Well damn has that been my problem all along?THE MAKEUP IS A STAND. Koichi stop being so friendly with the people who literally kidnapped you. Koichi that's your instincts telling you to run away. She's so angry. This lady's got great boobs. Can her stand fix Yukako's shitty personality? Titties. This is someone's fetish. Nothing says trust like nearly strangling someone with your own hair. GODDAMMIT KOICHI. Oh hey, it's your other kidnapper that you're weirdly okay hanging out with. You know the two of you could really bond over the fact that you abducted him. I mean, there was that time she made him piss on himself then almost electrocuted him. Thank god everyone's here to protect Koichi. I love Stand Baby. GODDAMMIT KOICHI, AGAIN. Bye Josuke. Koichi control your boner. I'm with Okuyasu here. DON'T STICK YOUR DICK IN CRAZY, KOICHI. Uhhh what happened to your face. Yeah kill her that'll help your situation. To be fair I wouldn't remember to reapply it either. Calm down you could probably just ask Josuke to punch your face back on. Pick a better face. Oh you bitch. This would be really sweet until you remember literally everything else she did. Jesus Koichi calm down. What the fuck did I just watch. Clover- Oh hey, it's that one guy. I don't automatically hate this doctor, something's wrong here. I hope he loses his clothes again. Hi jellyfish. Yeah he works out his arms a lot jacking off to an unwilling nun. Please tell me his arms are broken forever. I don't even get to see him naked I hate this show. Aren't you supposed to have a starving gremlin with you? MEAT. Why is Sister Fucker allowed to exist. Yes show, remind me how much I hate everyone. Something's up he's not screaming constantly at the top of his lungs. I agree with that one, beat the shit out of him for fun. This suffering is delicious. Pretty sure I've never smiled more while watching this show. I mean I know this is getting reversed in a couple of episodes but let me enjoy the misery. STOP SCREAMING YOU DIPSHIT. No, he does not deserve dessert. God I hate you. RIP sandworm. Someone nuke that library. Oh god there's two of them. Noelle continues to be fucking intolerable. That bird could not give less of a shit. Oh what the fuck is this. Hunter- Last time, holy shit. Well that is some depressing shit. I'm gonna need a drink after this. Oh jesus that's ugly please kill it. Oh hey octopus. Now that's a hole. Oh hey Killua. Ant Palm is definitely her best look. Oh that's not gonna end well. I'm going with shirtless Knuckle. Whelp time to kill a cat. Jesus Gon calm down. This poor girl has no idea what's going on. Yes let Knuckle destroy them with student loans. Oh you're wrong and this trust will bite you n the ass. Christ that's cold. This is gonna hurt me in my soul isn't it. You mean beyond the hostage situation you're already involved in? Oh right, Palm can see things. Somebody sit this girl down and explain things to her. Honey I don't think you're gonna be seeing anyone. Pouf suffering makes me happy. Goddammit Youpi. Is it too much to hope that they all burn to death? Please let that green fucker be dead. Who ordered extra crispy ant? Yesss scream you bastards.

PokeNirvash Posted January 28, 2019 Author Share Posted January 28, 2019 God Ben pisses me off. Some anime should help get my unyielding rage against his kink-shaming, autism-hating self under control. DRAGONBALL SUPER - Did we really need a recap of that clip of Bulma calling Goku stupider than usual? I still think Baba's ghost helper is oddly cute. Frieza's choice of words is amazing. "Tortuous saccharine barrage..." EVEN SON GOKU IS AFRAID! Now's not the time to be a moralfag, Mr. Enemy One of Seven Universes. Omae wa mo.... shindeiru. Oh damn, he's gonna secondhand Hakai him. Gotta love Frieza's sense of style. Rule #1: Never underestimate Frieza. He can do whatever he wants, because he's Lord Frieza. Those are some fancy-ass adult Big Wheels that rap troupe's got. Now, what to do with that Hakai power... Curse you, Frieza, and your chronic backstabbing disorder! The tournament grounds are definitely looking more complete now. Oh, so he's using his grudge against Goku to test his abilities... LORD FRIEZA: MASTER OF THE DEAL. And he's got a bigger ego than Kaiba-boy, at that. Yeah, I'd imagine that's against some rule. BEERUS EX MACHINA. He's pissed, yeah, but being pissed is far from being the highest item on his list of priorities. DOUBLE PUNCH. I love telepathic conversations. That "Table of Contents" gag was easily the funniest Tigtone's been in what little I've seen of it. BORUTO: NARUTO NEXT GENERATIONS - It's been several weeks, but it feels like two days. That kid shoves "Y'know?" into his dialogue more often than his father did "Believe it!". Holy dialogue lip flaps mismatch, Batman! You normally get this type of fuck-up from shady online streams, but then again, the Toonami broadcast of MAR 9 did happen... That's oddly concerning of you, Sarada. The homolust is strong in Mitsuki. Every generation has to have an Ino-Shika-Cho, it's practically ninja law by this point. Yep, one lip flap off on all fronts. It's almost as if she had something to do with it... Thanks for the spoiler, Inojin. Neat, the power character is there in all four of those kanji. Your post-timeskip voice is still weird, Iruka. Oh hey, Naruto got off early for once. It's always awkward between these two. Shut up and eat your home cooked meal, Boruto. This kid's gonna crash this car on purpose the first time he gets behind the wheel, I can feel it in his face. This cell looks way too sci-fi for the Narutoverse. Second act, and the audio's still slightly mismatched. Seriously, VIZ, what the fuck. Well that second round of flag capture got over and done with rather quick. Gothloli ninja a best background character. Shino's clearly overestimating the trauma (or lack thereof) these kids have felt. Who's this random buff-o? Congratulations, Sarada, you've just been promoted to homeroom teacher! Meanwhile, Metal's blasting off again. I like that Chocho isn't as badly triggered at being called fat as her father was. SURPRISE INSERT SONG. Be glad it was just the scaffolding that got wrecked and not the building behind it. Oh shit she back. This is a warmer welcome than she ever would have expected. And Boruto's there on the sidelines, playing the wannabe cool guy. THE SAUCE HAS RETURNED. Kaguya's the ultimate endboss of Shippuden, that's all I'm gonna say about her for now. To think in Shippuden at this point, Sasuke would apologize for the exact opposite of what he apologized for here. Take that, crack in the fabric of space-time. Fuck this guy's lack of teeth is disturbing me. MOB PSYCHO 100 - Curse my crush on Midnight for making me avoid watching MHA with others in the next room over so soon... Just as I thought, he just wants to know why Mob isn't answering his calls. How sweet, a childhood flashback. And now we return you to soul-crushing reality but with psychic powers. Or none, since this room's suppressing them. It's so nice to see they've moved past that rough patch. T_T Wow, Ginger Esper's surprisingly more decent than these scarface dudes. And that's how Reigen inadvertently convinced the 7th Divison Lackeys that he was the leader of Claw. Truly he is the master of the long con. Okay Reigen is definitely one of my favorite characters now. And so the self-proclaimed master and student reunite. "Don't try and trick me with your fake whispering." If not for those four, things would've gone by almost smoothly. "Feel free to Google me." The world's a much bigger place than you'd expect at first glance, Reigen my man. Welp, Mob's in trouble, and I never thought I'd be saying that. REIGEN KICK! He's not wrong, social situations are pretty tough. Behold, a yen coin on a string! REIGEN PUNCH! The deadliest plastic sword since the one that killed Lelouch. Reigen may be a master con man, but he's no master of the deal, at least when it comes to espers. THE MOST POWERFUL CHUNIBYOS KNOWN TO MAN. "My salt!" God the sakuga in this show is amazing, it's criminal that I don't know who animated most of these scenes individually. "My wig!" Okay, I'll admit, Reigen's kind of in the wrong here. 100%... interrupted? "In the end, you're the one who's gonna be suffering." Hm, sounds better than "if you kill him, you'll be just like him", that's for sure. Oh wow, I totally forgot the episode title hadn't shown up yet. Neat, a flashback of their first meeting. Reigen's heart's definitely in the right place, even if he lies his ass off half the time. "Welcome to the exorcism business, partner." REIGEN NOOOOOOOOOO. 100%... resumed. Toonami doesn't air theses, but the next-ep previews normally feature Reigen as the narrator, and in light of his... unfortunate circumstances, Mob took over this week for the season finale preview. MY HERO ACADEMIA - WARNING: this morning talk show may contain language that's not suitable for younger viewers. Viewer discretion is advised. FUCK YEAH MAI HERO WAIFUS. REPLY TO ANGEL 1: "I'm guessing Poke just passed out." And I would've, had I not watched Mob and eaten some lunch before this. I personally prefer the ultra-thin fabric myself; the initial outfit's nice, but you can only aroused by bare skin for so long. (But then again, latex and zentai have been side fetishes of mine since middle school...) I can't help but feel I've gotten myself into an anime love triangle situation... If and when Mineta dies, I call dibs on his Figmas. Ah, final exams. I had only one last semester; got all As for the first time in a long time. (Seriously, not even a minus to be seen.) I wonder if and when Plank's ever gonna speak... Oh my god guys I think Mineta is my spirit animal and I'm 95% sure that's not a good thing. The top 5 trio right here. And then Momo attracted herself a study group. Damn, she sounds rich as alllllll heck. I bet Bakugo only got 3rd so he could lord it over Deku whenever the situation suits him. Hey, at least it's not last place. My parents are screaming over the Purdue game in the kitchen right now, maybe I should've watched Chad Clover instead to balance it out. "Mmm... soba." Oh dear god it's Blonde Douche Boy. I'm gonna imagine Ben as this guy from now on, he's just as punchable and facetious. A Kendo is fine too. And then Deku started considering all possible options. Parasyte Dandy tells it like it is. Stay mad, Bakugo. It's nice that you aren't threatening to kill Deku and all, but damn, don't you think you're going a little overboard with those threats. Aizawa's gonna make this test hell for Bakugo, I can just tell. Momo is an unexpected cute! ORCHESTRAL STUDYING MONTAGE~. That went by super fast. YESSSSSS MORE MIDNIGHT. Nobody expects the principal! I'd change my icon to that Menacing!Midnight image, but my bound-and-jam-gagged bust of her seems to be disturbing Ben quite nicely, so I'm just gonna stick with that for the next month. Deku and Bakugo: the Oddest Couple. I actually got super-excited when he said "I AM HERE!", and none of you can blame me. Hell for Bakugo, indeed. Toonami's too poor to make any real goodies - hence the hour of programming they're dropping next month - so have more music videos only Demarco knew about before now. At least this week's one has a good animator behind its production. Damn, that dude with the construction equipment for a head is tiny. Oh wow, for a second there, I forgot that All Might was a part of this meeting. I had a feeling it'd be Mineta and Sero against Midnight. What the hell is with that hip-hop speak, Mic. Take the Reigen option and run away if it's the best option for your team. But what about hiding to win? You now remember Hatsume. I guess it makes sense for Team Dekugo to go last. Bakugo had the decency to just walk away and not say anything, that means he's learning! Aoyama would totally make out with his reflection and get the mirror pregnant. These meatheads. This exam makes comps look easy, and I'm not even taking those until next year. So which teacher's this then? I don't recognize him at all. MEGALOBOX - The more some things change, the more others stay the same. The writers have to be having as much fun writing this crowd dialogue as the VAs are saying it. SHIT COUNT: 1. SAVED BY THE SIREN. Heh, he's making him eat his words. This is definitely the kind of show where the fights are more worthy of attention than the next quip that comes to mind. To be fair, 50/50 is hard to get down perfectly. Oh no, it's totally about revenge, it's just secondary to the other thing. As they say, war is hell. To quote a lesser robotics-enhanced sports anime, "the past is over, the future is now". If you can't fight him with fists, fight him with words. And then your fists. This ten-count will finish after these words from your national sponsors. This is what you get for not installing adblock, you maroons! I almost forgot that dude had a fake arm. Here's a hypothetical question: how long can you trigger someone with the same phrase before it loses its effect? Until that someone's prosthetic leg starts to give out, apparently. God I love 360 rotating action shots. Motion comic-style action sequences aren't too bad either, when they're done right. Huh, wasn't expecting a forfeit. He won, so he doesn't feel bad about passing out right this moment. But was it the constant boxing or the training for it that started fucking up his stumps? "Tomorrow starts today," that's a better quote. Oh hey, that's the ticket that broke him out of suiciding. Like I said, early 2000s-core. This dude is bara af. That's as good a non-answer as any. And now Yuri's caught up on all that went on behind his back. Shut your face, pretty boy. JOJO'S BIZARRE ADVENTURE: DIAMOND IS UNBREAKABLE - In which Josuke and Okuyasu fill Koichi in on their little side adventure with/against Shigechi. Could this be remorse over coming on too strong with her STAND I see on her face? Whoa, butterface at two o'clock. And apparently a lucky one at that! NOBODY EXPECTS DAVID BOWIE. "Aya Tsuji" sounds like a last name in its own right. I feel these haughty sighs are gonna get old quickly. $10 for a true love makeover, now that's a deal! Those eyebrows... Oh, 1999-era CGI, you so wacky and unrealistic. She'll choke you to death with her hair if you mess up, so I wouldn't underestimate her subtle threats. WHAT ELSE BUT A STAND. Wow, her eyes really do look more attractive now. And her face looks cuter on the whole too... You heard it here first, parfaits are manly. Well look at that, it's time for Koichi's 4:00 meeting. I bet it's lactose intolerance, lots of Asians have that problem. Yukako just don't give a fuck. This interaction is starting to get kinda lez. REALLY LEZ, IN FACT. Even when laying down, JoJo characters just can't stop posing for the fourth wall. That hair STAND of hers is super-versatile. 1000% SPARKLING. NOBODY EXPECTS VIC MANGA-KA. Clearly the solution is to kill Rohan. REPLY TO ANGEL 2: "You know the two of you could really bond over the fact that you abducted him." I can picture that. Oh no, two of the JoJos are there, that complicates things. Hot damn, Faye Mata's really knocking it out of the park as Yukako. SHIT COUNT: 2. Even I gotta admit, that's one fabulous baby, I can see why Rohan took that picture. Even though it was ultimately a poor decision. SCUSE ME PARDON ME OUTTA MY WAY. [orchestral music intensifies] Only when you're an expert at it can you do it without the helmet. It's natural to react to hearing one of your friends made out with their yandere love interest by peacing backwards out a second-story window. Koichi now has a boner of the heart. "Okuyasu, did you have some of Tonio's mineral water again?" Whenever someone says AWOL, it's depresses me that the only way to watch that anime is to order a bunch of long out-of-print VHS tapes via eBay. He found her fast. Uh... or maybe not. Then again, knowing JoJo's bizarreness, that probably really was Yukako with fucked-up eyes. Damn, her sclera is fucked. IT'S MURDERIN' TIME. No takeback rules are just the worst. You're a kind and smart kid, Koichi, way too good for Yukako. Ayatsuji's a jerk, but I like that she's giving her one last chance to fix things. You know you could have Koichi cross-reference each one to make certain it's the right choice. OH WOW I ACTUALLY PREDICTED THAT ALMOST. Truly Yukako has changed since her debut appearance. Sometimes I forget just how much guts Koichi has. That face fits really nicely. Hooray, good ending! BLACK CLOVER - As nasty as those forehead discolorations are, the wave pattern for the bottom edge of his burns is kinda cool. I wouldn't be surprised if Asta did have some sort of disorder beyond the whole having no magic thing. Being mean is Yami's nature, and it's one of the reasons he's the best. Jellyfish magic? Asta ain't good for much, but at least he can lift. Jillion isn't a number, Finral. I'm surprised you can tell it's a jellyfish from this angle. Let's mute the dialogue to give the diagnosis extra dramatical weight. Oh god, Yami really is the best. Woo-hoo, we're at zero stars now! Fuck yeah, barbeque time! Charmy's food love is definitely more tolerable when it's either on its own or kicking off the marathon of one-note gags. Admit it, you'd have laughed if he accidentally dropped the picture on the grill and it burned up. "You really need to do something about your fighting fetish, Luck." Don't make it gay, Gordon. Noelle's more of a representation of the modern tsundere for [as] anime than Tokine now, but still less so than that red-haired beta-harem girl Seina walked in on the bath that one time. And now for them to make asses of themselves for Yami's amusement. BLEEP COUNT: 1. "REGIONAL ELEVEN-POINT MEAT FORMATION!" "Huh?" It can be a special trick if he gets creative with the weightlifting. He isn't screaming like usual, so yeah, "off" is a pretty fair assessment. Nobody cares, Gauche, and neither do you, apparently. Now let's get serious. Having no arms is worse than having no magic, if you ask me. Wow, for a second there, I thought he was actually gonna cry. Try going for something other than the fish, eating it isn't exactly a strict requirement at a Japanese restaurant. Feels awkward when you're the only one that's yelling, isn't it? Okay, so which member has a cousin they're using for excuses? Ah, the glorious food chain. Don't make it gay, Gordon. Also, your subtitles should be dubtitles. And then they were Gourmet Hunters. Oh yeah, I have alligator jerky that needs eating. And here come the Nam flashbacks. I wonder if this universe's newspapers have funny pages. And here come the tears, and an appropriate time to use them at that. Let's mute the dialogue to give Noelle's destination extra dramatical weight. Her location is classified. ANIME CLICHE #542: If a girl walks in on a guy naked... she beats him up. Tropical Cop Tales looks and sounds annoying as hell, but part of me wants to see it just for the context of all this crazy shit. HUNTER x HUNTER - When all else fails, just nuke your problem away. Thank god this is fiction, otherwise I'd be terribly triggered right now. Oh geez that face. And as if the ugly reaction face wasn't bad enough, half his face is true-blue ant for some reason. Consider Pouf flying away fate making up to Angel for seemingly killing Reigen. (Ironically, Reigen and Pouf share the same VA.) A lot of shit happened while you were down there, Ikalgo. "It only took them thirty minutes to wreck the whole place!" That's as long as your average anime episode! Being part-fish woman suits Palm, oddly enough. It's creepy black-haired yandere girl respecting her crush's boundaries night on Toonami! It shouldn't be too hard to find Knuckle, being the only shirtless dude on site. Now let's bust what little ass is left in this ruin! Great Scott, not another creepy murder child movie. You do remember he shrunk your time limit to ten more minutes, right? HE SAID GET THE FUCK UP. Oh Komugi, you have no idea what's going on. Your king is dead, bitch. Gon, you freaking madman. He truly is the most intimidating boy. Well, Killua is from a family of assassins, so that answers part of it. Someone gets this girl some tissues. It's like a Hellmouth up in here. Stay sad, Pouf. Dammit, Youpi, I thought you were cool! The cloven hooves looked better when he was quadrupedal. Pouf is crying hundreds of thousands of twin waterfalls! Post-nuke Meruem reminds me of that old lady fish from the chocolate episode of Spongebob. "Behold the ultimate weapon of destruction: a handgun!" NARUTO SHIPPUDEN - I actually remember seeing clips from this episode in one of those monthly sakuga MADs I watched back in high school. For whatever reason, I remembered Konohamaru as Kiba. It was probably the whole "two clones at once" thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoleyisGood149 Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 (edited) On 1/27/2019 at 3:09 AM, EmpressAngel said: Jojo- Calm down you could probably just ask Josuke to punch your face back on. Hunter- Yes let Knuckle destroy them with student loans. That would require her to know of S.D. and it's power, which I don't think she does. Koichi, however, does, and he should've offered that as an alternative to Yukako, but he clearly spent all the time since the kiss thinking with his dick instead of his brain. That would be the smart play, and Gon, unfortunately, doesn't always do the smart thing. Poke: One of the storyboarders for MB also did some key animation for SC, but I'm not sure how much stylistic influence he'd carry from one project to the other since several other shows intervened between those two shows. I can dig black sclera. They remind me of Shirosaki, and that makes me smile. Yukako's version, though, makes her look almost like a ghost. Yes, I know the show has an actual ghost, and she looked perfectly normal. DBS - I feel like Goku wasn't bothered so much by Frieza taking out the hitmen, but rather that Frieza took such pleasure in doing so. I was impressed by the dog hitman. A fake-out shot was to be expected, but the double fake-out took me by surprise. I don't think Frieza truly expected it either, but his reaction time was fast enough to fight it. Tangentially related to reaction time, I feel like that was part of the difference between how much Frieza and Goku struggled with the Destroyer energy. Frieza's guard was up, and Goku's wasn't. The other part was that Frieza was already in his powered-up state, whereas Goku was in his baseline state. Frieza was primed and essentially ready for the attack, and Goku wasn't, but Goku still wasn't instantly annihilated. I think Frieza was too busy being pleased with himself and scheming for his survival to notice that. Still, Goku should've expected Frieza to double-cross him with the Destroyer energy. I expected it, but I didn't expect the betrayal to come so quickly. I thought he would keep it for later use. Maybe Goku would've eventually contained it, maybe not. Since Beerus intervened to resolve it, we'll never know. I liked that even the "depraved" 9th Universe gods were aghast at Frieza's cold selfishness. Boruto - Naruto just can't win with Boruto. It seems like his son finds some kind of fault or shortcoming in everything. Give the criticism a rest, kid. Remember, Naruto may be the leader of the ninja corps, but he's not the sole leader of the village. There is a civilian authority with which he must work, and beyond the village, he's also subordinate to the feudal lord. He doesn't necessarily have final say in everything, so he can present the case for leniency for Sumire, but the final verdict on her future in the village could be out of his hands. I'm fine with the students forming their own teams, but different ones than their last squad-based exercise. Letting Shino see who works well together and who doesn't will help him compose effective teams, and not only will that help with mission success going forward in their instruction, but it also helps them see who is more likely to survive missions without their jonin needing to save them constantly (excluding unforeseen Zabuza-style opposition, like Kakashi had with the old Team 7). Shino putting Sarada in charge of recording results in his absence while he went to check on Sumire says to me that he considers her to be reliable, like a class rep. Oh, hi there, Sauce. I'm not sure why Naruto would need to consult him on the contents of the scroll, but evidently it has to do with his knowledge of obscure high-level jutsu, and I'm willing to credit him with knowing that from his training under Orochimaru. These new people talking about harvesting planets says to me that they're aliens, in that they didn't originate on Earth. I know more due to reading what amounts to Shippuden and Boruto spoilers, but I'm intrigued to see it play out. MHA - I grinned and chuckled my way through most of the episode. It was so fun to see this animated. I eagerly await the rest of the fights Aizawa devised. Momo was so pleased to have friends over to study. I preferred the way the manga had someone call her Momoyao versus the anime calling her Yaomomo. The first one flows better to my consideration. It's easy to forget with Bakuko's horrible rage issues that he's also good at academics. Weighing down the teachers to limit them is a sporting handicap, but I must wonder how that would work with Ectoplasm. How could he copy the weights for his Shadow Clones? I love that Kendo just hits Monoma to keep him in line. Regarding Midnight's original costume, da-yum doesn't even come close to doing it justice. She did have a point, though, that some Quirks, like hers, function better with more exposed skin, since her sedative pheromone would enter the air in higher dosages with more of her skin in direct contact with the air. The catfight between her and Mt. Lady was the stuff of Mineta's dreams. MP 100 - Still haven't watched these. MB - Haven't watched this yet either, because someone in the house keeps watching Hallmark movies, leaving me little time to watch what I record, and then they complain about all the stuff I have on the the dvr. *Insert Charlie Brown yell here.* JoJo: Diamond - First and foremost, what the crap, Koichi? Why would you not immediately flee from both Rohan and Yukako?! One mind-raped you, with physiological consequences as well, and the other went Misery on you. The sensible course of action would be to stay or get as far away from the both of them as you reasonably can. I understand that brusquely leaving either's presence would be considered culturally unacceptable rudeness on its surface, but you would be doing so for very good reasons based in each's past actions toward you. The beautician lady was pretty and had epic boobs, so that was nice. Of course she was also a Stand user, but, like Tonio, not exactly a malevolent one. I think I get what she meant when she said Yukako's face was a bit harsh. She did have cross eyebrows. Show, stop showing us how shapely Yukako is. You have a grown woman with a bombshell body as the only other person in that room. Show us more of that instead, please. The beautician was very clear about the lipstick directions, but every half-hour is ridiculously frequent. It was a bit disturbing that the skin of her face and hands disintegrated like that. Given how hostile Yukako has been throughout the episode, I can't completely bring myself to blame the beautician for presenting Yukako with the false choice of the multiple faces. Koichi was observant and a remarkably good person to see past Yukako's deteriorating visage and recognize her demeanor. When Yukako put the choice in his hands and he asked to be blinded if he was wrong, that was extremely selfless on his part. I'm glad the beautician gave her the right face for his sake. It showed that she does have a good heart motivating her. I, like Koichi, must remind myself that Yukako is crazy. I want him to have a girlfriend, because he's a good guy and deserves a good girlfriend, but not Yukako. Sure, she's singularly devoted to him and pretty, but she's very close to being cute-but-psycho, if not there. She strikes me as being one step away from Yuno Gasai. BC - Of course everyone was back to their usual antics. I could actually tell what Gordon said in one place, but it wasn't the same as the subtitles. The meaning was pretty much the same, but the wording was different. The meat feast party was fun, and I think that Luffy would approve of such a celebration. They had reason to do so, since they finally got out of the red on the achievement star board tally. The next one will put them into the black, bad pun fully intended. It was swell of Yami to take Asta to see the finest magical healer in realm. I'm not sure, but it looked like his magic was able to regenerate Fuegoleon's lost arm. It sucked for Asta that there's an ancient curse on his arms. I'm okay with Finral overhearing the prognosis and telling the others quietly. It's perfectly in character for Asta to remain undaunted, and it's fully in character for the others to go look for some way to remove the hex. It's also completely in character for Asta to be dumb enough to overlook the obvious solution. If my understanding is correct, the ancient curse is magical in nature, and he has anti-magic swords. He's even used one in the past to nullify a continuous-bleeding spell. All he needs to do is call forth one of his swords and cut each arm (maybe each section of his arms and his hands and fingers) with the edge. I wouldn't think that he'd necessarily need to be holding the sword for it to work, but since he showed he can hold one in his mouth, then he could have a teammate move his arm to the blade to cut the appropriate places. Once the hex has been dispelled, which the healer guy could confirm, then the process of healing the damaged bones could begin. He may not be able to heal both arms simultaneously, but it's far better than the healer writing him off as a lost cause because Asta didn't give him all the pertinent information. This is why a physician needs to know about all a patient's medications, current and past conditions, and ongoing treatments. Asta telling the healer that he has a sword with anti-magic powers which he'd previously used to remove a different curse would probably have had him recovering, if not fully recovered, by the end of the episode, but the story is relying on us not remembering that to generate dramatic tension. That's a narrative failure right there, author/writers. HxH - The world of HxH has a version of suitcase nukes, but even smaller, yet it looked to be every bit as potent as a larger weapon. The fact that they are proliferated among Bad Actor nations and terrorist organizations is a reminder that the world of HxH is worse than the world we have for the people living there, since they have suffered proper nuclear terrorism. Gon was observant to call Pitou's stalling. I get his rationale in wanting to fight Pitou alone, in that it would deprive Pitou of the chance to take a hostage, but I'm disturbed by Gon actually threatening Komugi, who is an innocent person compelled to be in Meruem's presence, to force Pitou's compliance. At least Palm can watch to see if Gon gets in real trouble. Pouf's real face was scary. I can understand that sight unnerving Knuckle a bit. We can't be sure, but it looks like Netero's spiteful fail-safe might have worked. It's hard to praise a guy who used the equivalent of a suicide vest, but he did it to (try to?) take out someone who posed a threat to humanity, so there is that. Shippuden - Konohamaru was rather annoying. Moegi was right to chastise him for wanting to be placed in action during the upcoming war. Sure, he faced one of the Pain bodies, but all he had to do was fight a person. She had to save a helpless civilian from a giant centipede, meaning not only was it stronger than her, but it wasn't limited by human range of motion, and her life wasn't the only one in the balance. When Konohamaru tried to prove himself against Temari, he clearly wasn't thinking. Not only is she the kind not to suffer fools, but had Shikamaru not stopped him, he would've been the instigator of an incident that left a Suna diplomatic envoy badly injured by an operative of a supposed ally village. It could've threatened the alliance. Stop being dumb, kid. We know from Boruto that it works out, but no one in the story had any idea of that at this point. PTE - Bob Epic Popuko carries on the fine tradition of teenage girls having access to Hammer Space with those traps. Not even the Manager's Specials on raw meats at stores around here get anywhere close to $0.50 for any kind of cut. They do get to about half-price though. As long as it's cooked thoroughly within a day or two of purchase, it's fine. It's like Chad's friend in early Bleach said about the sell by date on things - just a suggestion.

PokeNirvash Posted February 2, 2019 Author Share Posted February 2, 2019 1 hour ago, FoleyisGood149 said: One of the storyboarders for MB also did some key animation for SC, but I'm not sure how much stylistic influence he'd carry from one project to the other since several other shows intervened between those two shows. MB - Haven't watched this yet either, because someone in the house keeps watching Hallmark movies, leaving me little time to watch what I record, and then they complain about all the stuff I have on the the dvr. *Insert Charlie Brown yell here.* I, like Koichi, must remind myself that Yukako is crazy. I want him to have a girlfriend, because he's a good guy and deserves a good girlfriend, but not Yukako. Sure, she's singularly devoted to him and pretty, but she's very close to being cute-but-psycho, if not there. She strikes me as being one step away from Yuno Gasai. Pouf's real face was scary. I can understand that sight unnerving Knuckle a bit. If you're looking for visual comparison, I think MB's character designer - who also did designs for Michiko & Hatchin, which itself was done by Champloo's studio - is a better point of reference. Show them the script written by the bot forced to watch 1000 Hallmark Christmas movies. That'll probably scare them off. I like to believe that Yukako actually decided to dial down her crazy when around Koichi as a result of their STAND battle a while back, but still leave it unchecked with others, like Aya and that dude who yelled at her when she jaywalked. But yeah, that's an apt comparison. Pre-moe era yandere, moe era yandere, post-moe era yandere. Personally, the humanoid half of Pouf's reaction face freaked me out more than the ant half. Tonight's schedule will be posted later, just expect it before 11. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reigen is unkillable. Okay this is going way too well it's suspicious. Well shit this is actually working. ONE THOUSAND PERCENT! Reigen's attitude is just too powerful. Please punch that gimp in the face. I never thought he could be so cool. "I was born with glass bones and paper skin." face. Oh my god. GUN. Call 911 because I just witnessed a murder. Huh, I thought he was a girl. He's got a point, surviving IS a chore. Oh this is bad. Surprise assist from the ginger. Aw crap this guy. Oh hey Slimer. This is an amazing final fight. Just end the season now and let them be happy. You tried, Mob. Pretty sure nobody really liked that guy to begin with. You're a good dude, Josuke. I love Jojo Club. ;D And then he passed out. Good his hair looks more natural. Go away Slimer. That sounds like a terrible tradeoff. Careful with those spoons. Oh crap. DAD? I love this asshole. WORM. Hey, free mushrooms. Boxing- Sweet grafiti. Say this shit to my face, I'll fight you myself. Coach is brilliant. Oh god he's pissing blood. Joe should probably go to an actual doctor, guys. Oh shit this is gonna be fun. Yes please take off your shirt. No seriously, maybe get him some medical attention. Just let him fight you dorks. Good luck with those arms, Drago. Aren't you the boss can't you just ban him for fake steroids or something? SOUP. Oh sweet does he get gear now? Joe training to receive One for All. I wonder if we'll ever find out how he lost that eye. Stealth urchins, go! FIST BUMB, GO. He looks like Dan of Steel. Oh fuck you Dan. What the fuck, my dude? I'm gonna fight him myself. Jojo- I'm already uncomfortable. He fucked that hand last night. Dude that's gonna start rotting soon. Run away girls, you need your limbs! I could go for a muffin.

Where's your shitload of money? Yeah shake the fat kid down for money. Oh no dog. Ha, he can't spell. NO DON'T GRAB THAT BAG. Sorry fat boy you're gonna die. Just bribe it off of him for $20. Koichi continues to have terrible taste in women. This is the most stressful lunch. I'm amazed he can fit through that window. Grab you hand and run! Oh god it just keeps getting worse. You should have killed the fat boy when you had the chance. Thank god these boys are blind. This is getting out of hand. Now you just have to escape with your jackoff hand. Whelp, you're fucked. SHITBALLS. This went surprisingly well. Aw crap. Oh fat boy you're going to die. Aw fuck he does have a stand. Stop telling us about yourself. Ohhhhh fuck. Clover- I genuinely have no idea who this guy is supposed to be. Christ it's only been five months in universe? Why were you fishing naked? I've seen this porn before.

PokeNirvash Posted February 3, 2019 Author Share Posted February 3, 2019 DRAGONBALL SUPER - Tie game! Looks like the exempt universes get first dibs at seating. Oh, is that the same element that broke the Z-Sword? That fat pink female Supreme Kai is actually kinda cute. JIIIIIIIN!? Dang, are fights against Destroyers normally this destructive? What a disappointment. The sickest joke in the universe: leaving a Destroyer to do a job that goes against their very title. Vegeta and Frieza's banter is pretty great. Oh Yamcha, you cuck. "Don't you realize the stakes?" [Goku gasps happily] You Saiyans and your aversion to teamwork are really something. Whis remains the best boy. Holding hands with Frieza? How lewd! And that there was the last line Bulma's original seiyuu ever recorded for the character. That announcer for Tropical Cop Tales is the most annoying promo voice I've heard since Bucky Larsen: Born to Be a Star. Well that's getting fixed quick. Again, Whis is best boy. They have wings, flying's just part of their nature. Oh hi parallel universe Frieza. SURPRISE CHAMPA. Whatever you do, don't piss her off, you'll have flashbacks to the Broly Toei wants you to forget. "Not a punch has been thrown and I'm already sick of the 7th Universe." Quote of the week right there. Oh no, they're bonding. The true darkhorse finally arrives. Goku, that guy nearly bearhugged you to death, simply saying hello is not your brightest idea. [teleports behind you] "Nobody expects Patrick Seitz." And, of course, 2 and 3's teams showed up without fanfare. I like that classy professor guy with the 3rd Universe. Acrofatics. Krillin showing off that Destructo Disk. TOKUSENTAI! TOKUSENTAI! The Tournament of Power begins... next week. Hmm, so Fox God was voiced by Asta. BORUTO: NARUTO NEXT GENERATIONS - It's all about that chakra control. Oh Denki, you're supposed to be the smart one! "Hey, speaking of whom..." Shino don't get no respect. Does wall-climbing even count as ninjutsu, or is it just basic training regardless of type? If only he had a crampon... Thanks, Lee. "Uhh... what's 2 plus 2 again?" Congratulations, you are now worthy of wearing the green jumpsuit. One step at a time. I don't think saying "repeat" by itself is enough to trigger him. It's like back tingles, only less stupid-sounding. Yeah, going into the Master's program at the same university as your undergrad is kinda like that. And that goes without mentioning what happens when you're dual-degree... These two are the most unexpected BFFs. Appraisers can see the value in all objects, but can they see the true value of a Popeye's box, let alone the reason why kids love Cinnamon Toast Crunch? Upside-down training, go! STUDIO CAMEO OF THE WEEK: Pierrot published their ninja study guides. That's a lotta jalapeno for just one burger. Oh, it's ghost pepper, I can understand the pain in their tastebuds. Eating one himself is punishment enough for the pain he caused. Something tells me Shino's gonna throw them a curveball... Or a call for a Good Samaritan works too. Guards, this woman has lost her composure. I blame Sasuke for this. Meanwhile, others are blaming Boruto for another thing. Time to put those electrical engineering skills to work. On goes the Rock Lee jumpsuit. You can't have public service in this show without it being some ninja variation, apparently. Your Talk no Jutsu's not refined enough for you to just cover for them like that yet, Boruto. In the end, their roadblock was the true test. Why does that one guy in the background look like he has cybernetic eyes? Again, the most unexpected BFFs. MY HERO ACADEMIA - You say that, and yet it didn't take much on Cementoss's part to win his match-up. Communication is key, and really something some people in their class should work on. Your humorous asides are always appreciated, Present Mic. So what you're saying is, Froppy is in fact best girl. Oh shit he can make Titans. Remember that tongue flick, that'll be important later. Shadow vs. shadow. See, I told you it'd be important. That's a freaking peg-leg he's got. Congratulations, animal friends. PIGGYBACK MANEUVER. Try stepping on the individual rubble pieces like in Mind Game! Or just throw him through the exit, that works too. There's just something about Power Loader that disturbs me. Iida's the only person who can be both cool and uncool at the same time. The only thing that interests me about this League of Legends commercial is what studio animated it. (Someone tell me plz.) AAAAAAND HE'S BACK! You can just tell from her face that she desperately wants to be useful. A simple pause was enough to notice she was making nesting dolls, but it took me a little longer to notice they all look like her. I'd have guessed she stopped because she was too busy sharing her complaints. I missed Aizawa's goggles. A ninja who binds people with tape, who does he think he is, the Kinky Kunoichi's unseen mentor? On that note, here's a gratuitous chest shot. "She's still a child at 15." Well that certainly explains some questionable fanart I've seen. I completely forgot that Momo got two votes in that election. You thought it was a nesting doll, but it was I, a flash grenade! That split second of Angel's SAO 3 reaction face made me happy for some reason. He should name that attack "Ice Age". That's a thick super-scarf. No words for that concluding scene, I just sat back and let the victory wash over me. She came this close to jobbing. Another gratuitous chest shot. Still, it's nice to know that the person that rack belongs to has emotions and feelings in her own right. I never would've thought Todoroki could be that dense sometimes. Dammit, Wikipedia promised me there'd be another fight this week! I was wondering why my MHA recording had more time at the end than usual... Turns out it was for the SAO promotional. I really should've taken that into consideration. MOB PSYCHO 100 - Thank you, Mob's internal logic, you finally foiled the machinations of the Curse of Angel. God I'm gay for oblivious invincible Reigen. 1000% GRATITUDE. Eat your heart out, Ghost of Netero! Clearly getting surprise slashed across the back did wonders for his confidence. Oh hey it's the neon city from the opening. SICK BURN REIGEN. You use that word, it does not mean what you think it means. Hey, they don't have to take the mask off if they don't want to. Sakurai is what happens when you don't want a kid but are too cheap to get an abortion. That's one serious face. Now that's a hilariously terrible childhood experience. BEHOLD THE ULTIMATE POWER: A HANDGUN! God I'm gay for oblivious invincible Reigen. His Talk no Jutsu is the most powerful. Gas Mask Loli was actually Gas Mask Geezer, who could've seen that coming without looking at the ANN cast list? His goal is to have the ultimate babyface. "See? Out of the mouths of babes, no less." Thanks, Ginger Esper boy. PHASE OUT. Oh Dimple, you useless thing. And now we return you to everyday life. I almost forgot he sees most other girls as vegetable-heads. She totally wants his D. Oh hey, the student council prez looks normal now. How nice, he actually joined their club. And Mob's still suffering. That floor texture is Black Clover levels of lazy. I do like how Teru's a good guy now. Even Reigen hates Dimple. Heh, one of the Japanese cast credits is "Potato Girl". And the original manga author key animated for the finale! Wait, is this some type of Refrain Boy remix I'm hearing? Mob and Ritsu's mother is the only normal person in this show. Oh shit, the real leader is Ginger Esper's old man. So where is he now if not Japan? USA? Australia? "This is News Mob; go fuck yourself, Seasoning City." Ah, so this must be ONE's segment. This post-credits job is making me wanna go take a walk in the woods, and what better time, with the 50-degree weather outside! So many Matsutakes. Don't eat too much, or you'll be haunted by wasabi zombies. Simply put: season 2 on Toonami when? 10/10. You do know real life Native Americans living in the white man's culture don't call themselves names like "Sparrowhawk", right, marketing team? MEGALOBOX - So this is the power of protagonistic popularity... not bad, not bad at all. Also goddamn I love Jap rap, puts its American equivalent to damn shame. Hey, as far as some people are concerned, a near-zero chance is just as good as 100%. Bang Zoom angles their subtitles, hence they're the best dubbing company, barring their "anime is going to die" and "we'll quit dubbing if piracy continues" comments from a decade back. Holy crap, I never realized how dark Nanbu was compared to other people. That pee doesn't look like it's got a healthy color, Joe. After the last couple fights, Gear vs. Gear fighting just seems archaic in comparison. Well this sure fits the definition of "lucking out". The bubbles on the edge of the cup are a nice touch, I can see why that one /co/anon lobbies for TMS as hard as he does. TOO MANY BRUISES. Always think ahead, even when thinking immediate. Sports anime are all about those bored room meetings. Huh, so not even she likes her brother. Huh, Arial instead of Verdana this time. I guess claims of an unfair advantage work too. Truly his gear is like a second skin. So much sibling drama up in here. Just when you think SAO couldn't get any worse, BAM! Death Gun 3: The Reckoning. Eat it or beat it, that's their motto. Not even he was expecting the punch to come at him like that. SHIT COUNT: 1. That's a huge-ass tire. This song is Gonna Fly Now meets Eye of the Tiger. Oh hey, that picture made a return. Going through the ducts is the best way to break and enter. Just take care not to fall off that ledge. [insert Team Satomi cheer here] REPLY TO ANGEL 1: "He looks like Dan of Steel." And yet he has the voice of Georgia's first black mayor. Mikio, you douchenozzle. Thanks for the unorthodox save there, Nanbu. Welp, the crowd's definitely gonna riot now. Dammit, this was last week's credits! First W'z, and now this... What crap luck I have this weekend. JOJO'S BIZARRE ADVENTURE: DIAMOND IS UNBREAKABLE - Oh no, it's the Morio-cho Radio jingle, that means something disturbing's about to happen. You gotta love that slow rock music. He's gonna jack off with that hand later, I can just see it in his face. The great Neil Gaiman once said that within even the dullest man is a world or hundred of amazement and wonder. Sadly, his involves jacking off with the severed hands of random women. Milk bread, that's double emotional poison for me. And what the hell's a rusk? I'm not sure what's creepier, him caressing the sandwich with that hand or him speaking sexily during the whole affair. Welp, you break it, you buy it. SAO's rapists of the season have nothing on this dude. WHAT A BEAUTIFUL DUWANG. "If only I had some embalming fluid." I wouldn't be surprised if that pun acknowledgement was dub-only. His Haki puts the fear of god into even the beggiest of dogs. And now for some wacky comic asides with the JoJo Universe's trio of Eds. I'm convinced that those spikes on Shigechi's head are his hair, which just so happens to be the same color as his skin. Hiragana's fine, but katakana's the master race. TRIGGER WARNING. That's hardcore, Okuyasu. Don't do it, Little Shige, you'll get killed! [seething intensifies] Koichi/Yukako confirmed for an official item. Oh Shigechi, you so cheap. Acrofatics. Well that was a slightly wacky sound effect. What kind of gym storage has a kitchen anyways? "Obliterate", odd choice of words but I like it. Hey, sometimes the best friends are real jerks to one another. Oh Okuyasu, you and your complicated tastes in food. First Joe loses his only shot at Megalonia, then SAO postpones the aftermath. What crap luck they have next weekend. Crisis: averted. But at the cost of Josuke's credibility, it seems. Crisis #2: averted. But at the cost of Shigechi's composure. Kira's loving listening to this argument. "I have to start locking this place up tighter than Sister Lily's vagina." Yoshikage Kira: the luckiest serial killer history will never know... until now. SHIT COUNT: 6. (Cue slight regret towards rating Kunoichi 11 TV-MA.) And so the beans - or rather, the hand - have/s been spilled. Yeah, "closet weirdo" about sums it up. He's telling you all this because he knows you won't tell anybody. Eh, Killer Queen's a better name, but I guess this will do.

PokeNirvash Posted February 6, 2019 Author Share Posted February 6, 2019 23 hours ago, QueenoftheDorks said: I'm not sure, but it was directed by Shingo Yamashita. Well, if you're right, that is kinda cool. I had him staffed as storyboarder/director for the penultimate episode of NIBAI MUGENDAI's official replacement as my favorite work that I created (with inspiration from other sources) and I liked what work of his I've seen so far (various anime openings, Yozakura Quartet: Hana no Uta 10). That gives me something to appreciate about that commercial, since I give zero shits about League of Legends. In other news, the Superb Owl sucked. Neither team scored high enough to matter. The Bud Knight was killed off for some stupid cross-promotional of an overrated HBO program long past its time. That one Spongebob petition was mostly ignored for what I'm sure were selfish reasons. I'm considering not even watching next year. But enough griping. That's what Black Clover's for. BLACK CLOVER - He just got outta the bath, and now he's back in the shower. Yes, this is a non-recap flashback episode. God, I'm a sucker for clouds casting shadows on rural landscapes. What kind of heavy sword doesn't cut through equally heavy trees? Huh, so Nero's been watching over him that far back. NAKED STRANGER COMING THRU. Asta is disturbed but not necessarily repulsed by this man's exposed genitalia. "It's my special Moga (sp?) Relief Juice for increasing your magic power. Hasn't done shit for me, but hey, it might work for somebody." Yes, clothe yourself before you disturb/repulse anybody else in the audience. It was partly his sword, partly his gusto, and partly generic shounen expectations that got him through. All these young adult characters in their late 20s make me feel old despite being younger than them. Hey, just be glad he isn't after something else of yours. And that, my boy, is the power of friendship. The Yuno on Asta's shoulder, meet a cheap late '90s-era shatter effect. You'd think Asta would be excited to chop wood, after Yuno cockblocked him from doing so the last time... Never skip arm day, Asta. I still have no idea why I find this boy so endearing. Naming things is overrated, but I feel like I'm missing out by avoiding doing so. You're a good man, Fanzell. The only thing worse than slasher flicks? Slasher flick sequels. At least this one looks self-aware enough to be fun, compared to that damned Unfriended 2: Dark Web Boogaloo. That's some tough wood, if it can stand up to that sword. Holy shit huge bird. Were you naked often when teaching them, because I can imagine why they'd think so little of you. That top 1 guy sounds like the fun kind of crazy. REPLY TO ANGEL 2: "Is that just Noelle in a wig?" Close, it's Sally (mad science girl) without her glasses. It's always weird listening to Asta speak at a reasonable volume. Poor Fanzell's the only sane one here. Let's get serious for a moment. So did you find the body or not, that's kind of something important you need to tell. SUDDENLY ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT. It all seems to be coming back to that guy this cour. [TARZAN SCREECH] Welp, so much for telling him to run and thinking it would stick. And then he was the one giving him life advice. Those QUALITY faces are the perfect expressions of confusion. Stranger inflection than when you notice a STAND in the chrome of the steering wheel. Domina is honestly an underrated name, even if it's best used only in fiction. Well he sure got naked again fast. By the way, this episode was based off a light novel side story. Probably should've led with that. HUNTER x HUNTER - We now return you to the loudest mourning ceremony in anime history, already in progress. Oh shit he's twitching. I do not miss those days when he was just as savage as the rest of them, if not moreso. Healing cells with cells, I'm certain there's a technical term for this. He's no longer crispy, but he's now on fire, I wouldn't call that "all right". Random fairy girls. They're not even trying to hide the fact that Pouf literally orgasmed from being praised so highly. This truly is the Sounds of Gay Sex Experience. NENCTAR. Random fat cherubs. And now Youpi is the one experiencing an extended metaphor for an orgasm. Star highlights. This is easily the most homosexual anime episode to have aired on television since Descendants of Darkness on SyFy ten years ago. Or, at least, that one Kekkaishi episode Angel said gave DoD a run for its money in that department. Is that the hand of the Queen? Alright, Meruem it is, then. You saw it here first, ratings enthusiasts, breastfeeding is 14 straight material. You are now one with the spirit of MILFdom. Oh god Nanbu's gonna lose his other eye isn't he. MERUEM IS BACK, BABY. Now Youpi has his own chibi fairy form to match Pouf's. "Go away, I'm processing." He knows a bullshitter when he sees one. I'm not sure I'd call Netero a coward, but he was definitely a scoundrel. This episode's already gay enough, Pouf, don't make things worse. Look out, 'cause here comes Yandere Butterfly Reigen. Count yourself lucky, the both of them have already left. You do know he can tell what you're thinking, right? FLY AWAY NOW FLY AWAY NOW. H-Hayai! Welp, sucks to be you, Pouf. And then everyone kicked his ass. APR flying with them. Ikalgo and Killua are here too, you just can't see them. Shirtless Knuckle gets top billing for once, Angel must be pleased to some degree. NARUTO SHIPPUDEN - That's some crappy bird animation. The hell's with this robot. His advanced technology was no match for good ol' kicking power. That's one serious man-jaw for a kunoichi. [TORNADO SIRENS INTENSIFY] As if I need to ask what he means by "research". JOESTAR SECRET TECHNIQUE, GO! Filler or no filler, I know he marries Hinata when all's said and done, so I can see what outcome the end of this episode will have. Yamato's voiced by Matt Mercer now, so of course he's taking things more serious than most. "First a bathroom break, then we'll talk." Well, at least the dislike of this silly kunoichi tradition is mutual. Even if he did survive whatever tragic fate befell him, I doubt a matrilineal society would've allowed him to become a politician anyways, as sexist as they are. After looking up the show on Wikipedia, I'm starting to have a hard time believing the black Tropical Cop is played by a dude. Eh, he'll get his chance to marry once the war's over. WE THUNDERDOME NOW. What even is a Nadeshiko style, really? A fancy female-friendly name for Wind Style? No one ever expects them to come from behind. (Yes, realized it the moment I said it.) Oh god, robot suitor's back. Geez, how long was this guy chasing after her anyways? "Nobody interrupts my Talk no Jutsu!" Suck it, suitor man, you fail even as a filler villain. "Locking away one's heart" sounds cliche as all hell. Bullshit, you love Sasuke and you know that better than anyone. The irony is, the only one you're winning over with your actions is Hinata. It's been forever since I've seen Yamato's face like that. Well that episode was lame. But really, who'd have thought that NaruSaku shipping of all things would be what ultimately sank this episode?

PokeNirvash Posted February 9, 2019 Author Share Posted February 9, 2019 (edited) Over the past three years, Toonami's had its share of what some would call, "crap shows". Tokyo Ghoul. Black Clover. Boruto. Sand Whale and Me. FLCL Progressive. Hell, even Dimension W qualifies for many of you. But none of them have anything on the Better Cartoon Show's biggest critical cold turkey in the Adult Swim era. (The one that isn't Tenchi GXP.) A show so crap, so ripe for riffing, that dropping it isn't an option, if only because you want to see what happens next. Take a good long look at this face. 'Cause you're gonna be seeing it in your nightmares for the next year. AGAIN. Sword Art Online: Alicization. Premiering tonight (Sunday morning) at 12:30.

FoleyisGood149 Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 (edited) I'm not sure Froppy is the best girl, but she's certainly the best pal any of her classmates (except Bakugo, because he's too angry for friends) could have and a really good collaborative teammate. She strikes me as someone who could work with anyone (again, except Bakugo, who rarely plays well with others). Why, yes, I do enjoy picking on Bakugo. Why do you ask? DBS - It was fun to see the exempt Destroyers spar for a bit. I chuckled when the Grand Minister tasked them with repairing the damage they did to the ring and making it better. Heh, Whis' hand-holding circle for team unity was wholly unnecessary. Frieza and Frost look like they'd get along splendidly. Great, nothing fazes Top's teammate. Chi flight being banned is malarkey. It's a learned skill. It would be like banning throws or holds. I will agree with physiological flight being okay. The ring gravity simultaneously imparts the gravity of the fighter's homeworld to each fighter simultaneously. That's clearly sorcery, meaning the Grand Minister must be a warlock. Boruto - Denki got a lot of unhelpful advice given in terms meaningful only to giver. At least Iwabe was actually able to give a useful tip. Since one good turn deserved another, Denki created way for Iwabe to study effectively. I'm fine with Shino recognizing that what the two boys did at the site of the fire put the skills to be tested into practice. They also showed remarkable maturity and a sense of duty to the Village in coming to aid of those young kids who were unable to help themselves. Good work, Denki and Iwabe. MHA - I forgot to mention it in the stuff for last week, but I've now reached the end of the MHA manga volumes I have (v. 15). Now I'll have to see if others are available to continue reading and supporting the franchise. I know I could buy the dvds, but I want it in manga form instead. While the stresses on Tsuyu's tongue would be great, I liked the plausible physics of Fumikage throwing her, then Tsuyu using his mass to decelerate as she pulled him toward her. They did well to fight off Ectoplasm's Shadow Clones, but I don't see why he couldn't have made more after some were dispatched. I'm also not sure how getting one side of the cuffs on a peg leg counted as capturing him. Oh well, they won, and they deserved it. Iida and Oujiro worked well enough together to reach the escape gate, but I feel like too much emphasis was made on Iida's speed, and Ojiro's outstanding agility at the end was overlooked. Shoto's plan to use Momo as an early-detection system wasn't bad, but it wasn't enough. It's a good thing that she had her own ideas about what to create with the Matryoshkas, because the flash grenades inside did just what she needed them to do. She also had a good plan to use both their Quirks to capture Aizawa, but, not knowing from which direction he'd approach, I feel like they couldn't have set it up from the beginning. They needing to have a bead on him to know where to point the catapult. MP 100 - I'll try to watch these in the coming week, but no promises. MB - Just the old one here. I'm not sure which was the case with Joe when he kept repeating Nanbu's advice aloud. I'm tempted to call it an attempt to unnerve Aragaki, which it did do, but I don't think Joe had that in mind when he first said it. I think he was just trying to keep himself focused on what he needed to do. That it took Aragaki's head out of the game was an added bonus, because Joe wouldn't necessarily have any reason to know that those words would hold personal meaning for Aragaki. However, in an arena with a good crowd, I have trouble believing Aragaki would be able to hear Joe clearly above the crowd noise, unless Joe was speaking clearly with intent to be heard, and it sounded to me like he was saying the words quietly to himself. I work in a noisy environment (so much so that we're required to wear hearing protection), and I will talk to myself aloud at times, and it doesn't seem like the people around me hear what I'm saying clearly, unless I speak up and directly to them, and sometimes not even then. I had the wrong impression of what happened with Aragaki's legs. I thought the prosthetics were about to fail under the intense stress he put on them, but it was that he was injuring what was left of his natural legs. In that case, I can respect his decision to concede the match instead of suffer debilitating trauma by continuing. I very much liked that despite his feelings of betrayal regarding Nanbu, Aragaki kept the losing bet slip, and the positive memories it evoked helped him choose not to end his own life, which is also a serious problem with veterans, and not just those who suffer maiming injuries during their service. Oh, crap. A heavyweight qualified for Megalonia. We know that Joe can take hits, but he's probably no more than a middleweight, meaning he could fight a man who has at least 1/4th again his mass, and likely more. His only hope to win there would be to avoid getting hit at all, but I don't think his speed and agility are up to it at this point. Joe also has the cumulative effect of getting beaten up by stronger and stronger opponents with not much time to recover from his injuries, meaning he'll be easier to daze and moving slower. JoJo: Diamond - Even for the JoJoverse, this was weird. We had Kira's completely detached insanity, the boys bickering over lunch plans and borrowing lunch money, and Kira threatening Shigechi. It was all over the place. Packaged lunches in Japan must have been expensive in the late 1990s, since it would've been $6.25 for what Josuske and Okayasu each got. Dang, Okayasu was loud in the lounge. It's no wonder the P.E. teacher checked the room. Kira identified himself, so Shigechi is marked for death. All this is because of a hungry stray dog. BC - Wait, what? Asta was actually instructed in swordfighting? Huh. I was shocked to read that Ang didn't care for the Diamond Kingdom defector (Fanzell) being a cut dude with a penchant for losing his clothes. It's a shame that his former subordinate decided that murdering dissidents was for the good of the kingdom. She had a nice rack. Really, though, I have no idea how he could lose all his clothes in a matter of seconds. HxH - My primary reaction to this episode is as follows: BULLSHIT!!! The proper way to read what follows is as a screaming/yelling rant, but I'm choosing to forego the all-caps and exclamation points. Meruem was within a few dozen yards, if not a few dozen feet, of a nuclear detonation. The energy of that would generate a shockwave powerful enough to rupture all his internal organs (which should already be mush, for reasons I gave previously, but whatever) and shatter his bones. That means he'd be in no condition to flee any farther than he was the instant after detonation. Then the intense heat, which, if I saw what I think I saw, was enough to melt the stone of the cavern, should've vaporized him instantly. Even if it didn't, his charred body would be left in a pool of lava, which would incinerate his remains and mix what little ashes remained into the the lava. There would be no body for Pouf and Youpi to find, and thus everything else they did wouldn't have happened. To iterate, show, bullshit. Since the story went this way, now Meruem is effectively a cannibal. While Pouf may not be as diminished as Youpi, at least those two Royal Guards should be easier for our team to beat. I would be remiss if I didn't point out that both Pouf and Youpi were telenovela-level dramatic betches there, if not worse. Pouf's plan may reflect what he thinks is acting in Meruem's best interest by removing the "weakness" of his attachment to a frail and vulnerable human, but it's still dastardly. Shippuden - This reminded be a bit of the Amazon myth. I don't mind Naruto inheriting Jiraiya's inconclusive duel, but no, he shouldn't be forced to marry someone he just met. Oh well, at least the filler kunoichis had big boobs. PTE - I don't blame the dude for getting with the brown-haired chick. She did have a nicer rack than the black-haired one. I have such little rhythm that I would be unable to do the haramasukoi (sp?) Just saying. Edited February 10, 2019 by FoleyisGood149 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmpressAngel Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Hero- I think Sparkle Boy just killed her. Wheeee! I love my kids. Oh, Team Dumbass is screwed. I love Principal Mouse. Oh that's depressing. These two have one braincelll between them and it is working itself to death. Stop Tsu you're gonna kill her. Aizawa you asshole you put the girl with super ears against the hero whose power is SCREAMING. Well those bondage cuffs are goddamn useless here aren't they. Aizawa's doing the voiceover. Kid stop running you can control them. Ouch her ears. Oh hey, he can talk. Well that's horrifying. Recovery Girl is unimpressed. IT'S HIGH NOON. The hell are those bullets made out of? Somewhere there's a naked chick running around. High Noon respects women. Oh, Mineta's going to die. Sero may have failed the exam but he's the real winner here. I'd be knocked out in four seconds flat. He's crying blood. Mineta confirmed for the fucking worst. Stop fondling your balls. You're wearing a diaper, you're not gonna be cool. God I'm gay. I volunteer to fight Midnight next. I absolutely do not believe you planned any of this. Get your balls off of her. Genuinely fucking amazed he passed. Oh fuck yeah time for the main event. Use Bakugo as a human shield. Sword Art- I hate everything in my life that has led me to this point. I've never wanted to beat a small child more in my life. Gay. SHE'S ALICE IN WONDERLAND, YA GET IT? What in the shit is this? I'd rather just watch Frozen. RIIIIICOLA. So then, is anything actually going to happen here? Is it too much to hope that these kids get murdered by a dragon? We sit through all that bullshit and don't even get to see a dragon threaten their lives? Did I turn on Black Clover by mistake. Suffer, children. These little bastards sure aren't the brightest bulbs in the drawer are they. I can't even enjoy a dragon fight because it's tainted by being in this goddamn show. Oh yeah this'll go well I'm sure. You stupid fucking kids. Oh what the goddamn shit is this. Oh right, they did this entire thing because of ice or some dumb garbage. Surely that dream doesn't mean anything. Yeah show me more of the fucking lumberjack sidequest that's what I wanted to see. He looks like Randy Marsh. I'm sure this would be emotional if I gave even a fraction of a shit about any of these characters. Not even the murder knight wants to bother with Kirito. You suck, Kirito. And then he had a Geass. How is this episode only half over? Oh great it's the harem we all missed that. Hi Klein, only decent person here. Why is Kirito a girl again, is this the gun game? I thought the avatars were randomly generated for that one, why does everyone look exactly the same? Didn't DEATH GUN get arrested? It's cringy hearing people say "IRL" out loud. Oh hey it's Black Seitz, the only other decent character. The fuck you mean he started with his bare hands, was he just punching bullets out of the air? Isn't that the guy who tried to rape her? This conversation is painful to listen to. Okay that's just creepy. Oh yeah this won't go horribly wrong and force us to sit through a year of garbage. This sounds stupid, Kirito you're fucking stupid. They call it the wHAT. I don't know enough about brains to refute this but it sounds fake to me. Yeah I'm definitely just calling it the fuck light. You don't call it a soul, but you're calling this a soul translator. It's heading for porn, I'll guarantee you that. You stole this from Inception. Again, this is stupid. You were HAPPY in the murder game? I'm pretty sure it still haunts him because it was a two-year near death experience. How old are these kids now anyways? Oh my god you fucking idiot why would you want anything to do with this guy AGAIN? Yeah this is gonna go just fucking great. Who needs a dagger when you've got a gun? I know I'm not lucky enough to have him be dead but I can hope. Jojo- Sorry fat boy, you're gonna die. YOU DONE FUCKED UP, PORKY. And then he blew up. Now he's gonna go fuck that hand. I guess all that lard insulated him. You leave my boys alone you creep. That took you a little too long to figure out. I hope Josuke is down the street. Well now I almost feel kinda bad for this nasty litte weirdo. Does nobody notice the boy bleeding out in the hallway? Wow that's cold, bitches. CONVENIENT JOSUKE. Aw fuck. Yes it's Rohan, blow him up next. How does nobody notice this grown adult wandering around the school? Ohhhh now I'm sad. You did your best, little buddy. At least he left them a clue. Aw crap. Well that's terrible. I ask myself that question every time another anime boyfriend dies, Reimi. Oh hey, Jotaro's still in this show. Couldn't you just have Joseph smash up a camera to find the killer? AWWWW OKUYASU HAS HIS WEIRD DAD THING. Please kill Rohan next. And then he got a boner. Nothing good ever happens when the DJ comes on. Aw crap he killed that girl. Hi Jotaro! You can be silent and broody around me, Jotaro. Wrong fetish, he's into hands. Hey, free crackers. Thanks old man! We get it you know the names. FUCK. What the fuck is that. RIP old dude. Why does he get to have two stands? I dunno maybe it's because you're a terrible person who kills people? Jotaro you can stop time. Clover- I have to watch this shit after a solid hour of Sword Art I'm a good person I don't deserve this. I don't really believe that anyone taught Asta shit. You know a show's completely failed when gratuitous male nudity does nothing for me. Hey there Cap'n Sexy. Kill hiim anyway, Yami. I continue to hate most of you. I'm sure this would be moving if I gave half a shit. Are we sure this isn't filler? Yessss kill things. How goddamn stupid do you have to be to attack an actual squad headquarters? Every day that sister fucker continues to breathe is another day wasted. I appreciate his priority on naps. Well she's a fucking delight. Who the fuck is Bruce? Is that bitch supposed to be there? Yeah sure, trust her now. I mean, I'd also just turn myself over to Yami's mercy but for entirely different reasons. Just swing our sword you dumb fuck. I'm disappointed that Yami met him before and didn't murder him outrigiht. Someone please kill sister fucker. Girls don't fight you're both terrible. I feel closer to death. SHE'S A WITCH, BURN HER. That's a lot of bats. Hunter- I could watch shirtless Knuckle all day. This poor girl is so fucking confused. I enjoy seeing the physical embodiment of student loans following someone else around for a change. I need APR in plushie form immediately. King fights dirty. This is the weirdest goddamn sex metaphore. Please kill Pouf. Knuckle is the real MVP here. God I hate him so much. He's the wooooooooooooorst. Thank god for Killua. Oh man, I hope he can turn himself into a giant bug zapper. MOTHER OF FUCK JUST DIE. Goddammit. Just knock her out. Eat shit you dumb moth fucker. RIDE THE LIGHTNING, BITCH. God just shut up already. HAHAHAHA YOU FAILED. I enjoy watching Pouf suffer. Meanwhile, Gon's about to skin a cat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PokeNirvash Posted February 11, 2019 Author Share Posted February 11, 2019 Yet another Toonami meme person finally makes it to [adult swim], even if it's just Fishcenter. DRAGONBALL SUPER - Hey, Frieza's in the OP now! So is that glowing ring passing by up there supposed to be important? Welcome to the sequel to Five Minutes on Namek, Krillin. No Healers Allowed. Oh Gohan, why do you even try. I can totally see why Top views Goku as the villain, what with his ever-present smirk and all. Impotence. A cat ignoring a mouse, must be Opposite Day. To no one's surprise, that escalated quickly. Their excitement is soooooo palpable. Goku doesn't care about your silly teamwork, Gohan. And neither does the other half of your team, apparently. SPINNING LIKE A BEYBLADE. There ain't no waiting for fancy transformation sequences in this tournament. Butterfly girl's voice is way too shrill, I'm not too bummed she's the first outta the ring. Please, please stop screaming, I don't think my ears can take much more. 1 down, 79 to go. Shut the fuck up, Champa. Meanwhile, girlfight. I'm loving all these guys shouting their attacks. Sumo Pig's holding his own surprisingly well. Jiren's gonna get through this tournament doing nothing at all. I like the clown Destroyer God's black dude voice. I feel like there's an inappropriate reference here in Goku getting suddenly stolen like a horror movie victim. Yeah, totally sounds like he's gay-raping him. Dude, you're going to the stands when you fall off. How do you even know what Otherworld is? It's not nearly as fun if he's not holding back, it's that simple. So wait, where're Universe 4's missing two members again? It's like all these wolf guys do is laugh and smirk evilly. Oh hey, new ending. And holy shit four frames of cast. BORUTO: NARUTO NEXT GENERATIONS - For being the smartest girl in class, that sure was a stupid question you just asked, Sarada. Denki is so sheltered. Friendly reminder that Sasuke fucked Sakura and left her to raise their kid alone. So where's Sakura going anyways? Out of the mouths of babes. You say it's a teddy bear, but why does it have bunny ears then? I'm guessing it's a girls' weekend out. Yeahhhhhh I'm pretty sure this episode would give my mom Vietnam flashbacks. See, now thinking like that won't get you anywhere. He's right, actually catching a bite is the best part of fishing. Confound you, forgetful old ladies! And now she knows the joys of riding without a roof. These troublemakers, them. Chocho heard everything. Queen's right, this commercial is Yamashita as fuck. The way you say that, it makes her secret sound lewder than it actually is. This lost and found employee sounds a little like Shinji. If I were her, I'd have double-checked the contents before claiming the item. Chocho is the most underrated girl. Welcome to Morocco Street. Oh Japan, you and your wacky potato chip flavors. Well this is definitely the opposite of exciting. Leave it to Sasuke to put in the bare minimum. I was just doing something innocuous and Sarada's shout startled me there. That makes two moments from earlier in the episode that implied greater importance later on. Did she just say "Cha!"? Sarada's the Big Boss. She's definitely as scary when pissed off as her mother was. In the end, a repeat of the Virginia Incident was avoided. MY HERO ACADEMIA - We now return you to practical exam #5, already in progress. WWDD? I'm not surprised that the class's token romantic can so easily tell who's got a crush on whom. I love Intense Mode Uraraka. I read a Deku/Froppy doujin the other day, so this interaction's giving me a strange mood. But even though she lost balance, she improvised a winning situation almost immediately, which is commendable in its own right. Next up, Team Dumbass! BEWARE: FALLING SARCASM. He's predicting the predictions, that fiend! Nezu is the funnest kind of insane. Clearly your only way out is to climb up. Or just melt the debris, that works too. So far that's 8 passes, 4 fails. HAHAHAHAHA. Froppy knows what went down, she can see it all over her face. Japanese wordplay, translated as easily as the script can allow. YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. That face. Now it's Aizawa's turn to narrate. He runs the early early show. ANTS! For those of you who are curious, that's Greg Ayres voicing Animal Boy's screams of terror. Yeah I don't envy these two. Oh shit the whole bleeding ears thing wasn't an exaggeration at all. Okay, now you should be able to place his voice without my help. He doesn't talk because he knows no one can stand the Greg Ayres voice for long periods of time. In the end, his downfall was bugs. Why is Demarco's taste in rap music soooooooooooo shit? IT'S LITERALLY HIGH NOON. Commando mode, go! Snipe has a point, does it really count as being a pervert if you can't see the person you're accidentally perving on. FUCK YEAH TIME FOR THE MIDNIGHT ROUND. Besides, Bakugo probably doesn't want him there. My spirit animal isn't just a pervert, he's a dirty coward. FUN FACT: I saw this image of Sero sleeping against Midnight without context once, and was under the impression that she was the hero he interned under for months. Bleeding from the eyes is way worse than bleeding from the ears, but I don't blame him for his jealousy. Yep, totally wish I was Sero there. Okay, I'm actually feeling for him here. [MY FEELINGS OF AFFECTION FOR A 2D CHARACTER INCREASE AGGRESSIVELY] Was this the scene Foley told me not to watch with anyone around, 'cause it sure as heck feels like it should be. Oh damn he actually has a plan (sort of). It's official, I'm now in a polygamous relationship with Midnight and Reigen. (Don't tell my other waifus/husbando.) Way to go, spirit animal, you earned this win. The hardest part of this test is easily gonna be dealing with Bakugo's "I'm infinitely better than you" attitude. It feels so good to flip off characters I hate on my television screen. "The wait is over." But ohhhhhhhh how we wish it would never have ended. SWORD ART ONLINE: ALICIZATION - Oh no, it's best rating, that's one thing for me to like about this premiere already! That's an odd way to keep tally, with the strikethrough all perfectly horizontal like that. I'd ask why Kirito's all tinier than usual and hanging out with this random blonde kid like the rest of you probably are, but I know it's gonna get answered eventually, so I'll wait. Trees are living beings too, it's easy to forget. This is his second childhood, now with 50% less getting hit by his grandfather. Yep, still less gay than last week's HxH. We Alice in Wonderland now, apparently. Her sandwiches probably aren't as good as Asuna's. Hey, lukewarm and even cold food's perfectly fine, just so long as it doesn't stay cold for too long. I've got an idea, create a fucking refrigerator. [in Tigtone voice] A QUEEEEEEEST! "Where would you find ice this time of year?" THE REFRIGERATOR. Nice, sketchy sakuga. Child logic, everybody. Ah, the joy of loopholes. I can just tell Kirito's itching to fight himself a dragon. A BIT OF DIALOGUE: Eugeo: "She has to learn all that stuff a lady's supposed to know, like manners and etiquette..." My dad: "[And] sex positions..." Bitch that's called the Sun. You can never have enough proper nouns in your MMO anime. "Huh, well speak of the Great Horned One." Check it out, stalactites. Nature's flashlight. Yep, Kirito's totally suppressing a fightboner for that dragon. Watch out for the icy patch. A light at the end of the tunnel, that can't be good. Well, outside of the endless supply of ice, it can't be good. It's funny how the bumps are advertising a completely different show than what we've gotten so far. Why is Bryce's little kid voice so terrible? Fuck yeah, treasure! I was gonna ask why killing a dragon would be a bad thing, but it looks like I've got my answer already. Sorry, you have to have at least as much muscle strength as Asta to wield this sword. Wow, didn't expect there to be a side-wipe transition here... or in anime in general. You kids probably should've made a trail of breadcrumbs on your way in. Whoa, what happened while they were in that cave? The Dark Territory, where the sky is blood red and nothing can survive on the ground. DRAGON JOUSTING. Impact frames, fuck yeah! [shoots a thumbs up as he dies] You have crossed the line; the punishment... is death. Go away, Dr. Manhattan, nobody wants you here after what you did to Rorschach. The important thing is, you tell no one what happened here today. No one wants to see Dr. Manhattan in their nightmares. I still don't know what an Integrity Knight is, but all I do know is fuck them. Wow, my "the punishment is death" comment was way too on-the-nose there. The ice was symbolism all along. Kirito's ready to embrace his inner Eren and whack a son of a bitch. HAKI BLAST. His eye just got infected with the Red Ring of Death, that means this is an XBox game. "That was easily the second-worst nightmare I've ever had in my life." Friendly reminder that we could have gotten the Gun Gale Online anime instead of this. Though I will admit, A-1 certainly made it look prettier. INCOMING JEEP! Silica looks like she's enjoying that gatling gun a little too much. Asuna looks pretty good with her hair done up. Unpopular opinion, I missed Trap Kirito. BULLET BEATS GRENADE. God I'm a sucker for people smacking away bullets with lightsabers. Still, I think it's real nice that Asuna's using a photon sword like her BF is. REPLY TO ANGEL 1: "I thought the avatars were randomly generated for that one, why does everyone look exactly the same?" I think the random avatar generation only applies if GGO's your first game on the VR tech you use to access it, like with Kirito; everyone else could've just transferred their previous game data over. Hey, you all survived against them, even if they did retreat. An esoteric victory's still a victory. TWIST OF THE WEEK: Kirito's now a narcoleptic. [reads Bullet of Bullets roster] Aw man, LLENN's not on the list! (Then again, Squad Jam is more her style...) Narcoleptic Kirito is the best Kirito. Satellizer, you say... No surprise, the dude's an obvious cheater, no one can be that good other than Kirito. Hopefully they got Rapist JYB on some of the good meds. Japanese nicknames are weird, yo. An anti-cheating system is easily what Kirito needs, what with all the different ladies in his pseudo-harem. I can easily see why these two top all the big lists for best anime couple. To me, Wrath is both the best and the worst of the seven Homunculi. Huh, so that world he was in during the first act was the full-dive game he's mentioning now. Forget a fluctlight, what's an OGMA? I actually used Doordash the other day to get some pizza. Apart from me having to go out in the rain to receive my order, it worked well. I can understand the brain housing the soul. I appreciate the exposition, but seriously, tell me what an OGMA is. REPLY TO ANGEL 2: "You don't call it a soul, but you're calling this a soul translator." It's all pseudo-science and stuff. STL will always be St. Louis to me. IS IT SAFE? Never completely trust Business Jotaro. With FLA, you too can experience Five Minutes on Namek. We Alice in Wonderland now, definitely. It's those mnemonic devices, they're a bitch to remember. Black Seitz is grumbling about his lack of screentime, I'm sure. "See you later, Shinonon." "Seriously, what is that nickname?" I am such a sucker for CG cars too. America holds all of the answers, answers they don't want you to know. Truly they are babby's first anime couple. FIRST BASE, ACHIEVED. It all comes back to Kayaba with these VR technologies. Here comes trouble. LITERALLY! It's official, Kirito's played too many VRMMO games. To be perfectly fair, he used a grown man's knife against him IRL, so he's not completely powerless without his sword. DEATH GUN 3: THE RECKONING. Ouch, right in the armpit. Well, what're you waiting for? Call 119! Welcome back, Aniplex. JOJO'S BIZARRE ADVENTURE: DIAMOND IS UNBREAKABLE - Oh wow, random skull face on Killer Deadly Queen. Oh Kira, your Queen references are so endearing in spite of your way less savory qualities. Okay, he died faster than I expected him to. So much for him spending the episode running afoul. Oh hey, a Cinderella reference. NEVER MIND, THE RUNNING AFOUL CONTINUES! The only changes I see are the gash and twisted nose. He's gonna jack off with that bloody hand. Close enough, random mouth insertions count just as much. Threatening his parents, what a dick move. He knows because Josuke knows because Koichi knows. Heh, Harvest stole all the leaves off that bush. I didn't know the junior high and high school were in the same building. Anime girls are so unappreciative of the nasty little men of the world. SUDDENLY KIRA. LITTLE SHIGE NO! At least he managed to leave a hint for our protags. IT CAN'T BE HELPED. Soul death: worse than regular death. That feel when you die so brutally the whole town feels it. I'm liking the dark version of Jotaro's theme music. Shigechi was what we call, "ugly cute". He also produces all kinds of complicated feelings, even after death. My dad just saw Ayatsuji when he was passing through and said "whoa, check out the boobs on her!" It ruined the mood in the best way possible. Koichi and his psycho semi-significant others. BITCHES AND HOES ARE LIKE NEW CLOTHES. SHIT COUNT: 4. Meanwhile, that manga reader over there is plotting a more complicated misogynistic revenge plot of his own that will ultimately go nowhere. SHIGEKIYO YANGU: DECEASED. YOSHIKAGE KIRA: ERECT. Shazam! I'm not sure if the show no longer hiding that he spends his morning with a severed lady hand at the table while the Morioh-cho radio theme plays is more or less disturbing than it was when they tried to hide it. It's quiet. Perhaps too quiet. Jotaro lookin' a little like his old self there. All this English typesetting in place of subtitles just irks me, now that I've watched plenty of subbed anime. "Plus the elecronics store sells flowers." What did he mean by this? ANIMAL CRACKERS IN MY SOUP. I expected something bad and yet I still got surprised. At least it was just the guy's hand. Whup, spoke too soon. It's Kira, and he's in the closet! OH MY GOD KH A BOMB! BLACK CLOVER - Patiently waiting for them to make a shortened version of the updated OP 5. Wherever Fanzell goes, he must also be naked. This guy really needs to choose his words better. Charmy's fun when she isn't stuffing her face. "Miss Understanding works at the tavern, I think." Truly Yami gives zero fucks. And here's our protagonist to clear up the misunderstanding for him. BETTER BREAD THAN DEAD. "I can take you there," she says before chugging a bottle of wine. REPLY TO ANGEL 3: "Are we sure this isn't filler?" It's a light novel side story adaptation, so it's about half-way. It's time for Yami's 4:00 meeting. Whup, spoke too soon. No one interrupts Yami's shitting hours and gets away with it. Huh, so that whole "OK symbol magnification" thing wasn't something I just made up. I can't believe I dread Luck's scenes more than I do Gauche's now. But they didn't even touch your food. CHOKEHOLD. Why is Grey so much better as an existing character than as one of her two defaults? Meanwhile, domestic violence. Such is the way of the tsundere. BRUUUUUUUUUCE. I can't wait until apocalypse shows die out. I can't even tell which side this girl's on anymore. I'm gonna err on the side of caution and guess her request is part of some deeper plan. Obnoxious and overbearing gets the point across. GET IN THE FUCKBOX. "Better to be stupid than useless!" KAN OGAWA SAKUGA SPOTTED. That one minute where Gauche didn't even mention his sister was oddly nice. But I'll admit, I chuckled some at his whisper-speak at the end. AND THEN THEY WON. Finral thought right. I feel like a blush should've gone there. Come to think of it, she kinda does look like Noelle with a wig and eyebrow dye. Not the most attractive faces... I assume that cat is his, or at least Domina's. (Man, it's weird hearing that name used as a name outside of one of my original anime concepts.) And now you know the rest of the story. So her witch outfit wasn't just for show, then. CAW CAW MOTHERFUCKER. You think that's air you're breathing? Nope; Skrulls. HUNTER x HUNTER - All we can do now is pray to our respective deities of worship. Absorb their cells to obtain their powers; Orochimaru-style science 101. "This doesn't make any sense." Nen in general makes very little practical sense. He forced the enemy to deactivate it himself. Damn, it was in the hundreds of thousands. It's something we call "warrior's pride". I'm honestly a little surprised he forgave him for his sparing shirtless Knuckle. Whatever, Pouf does what he wants! Hey be glad that Angel's glad you get to live another week our time. How oddly nice of you, Meruem. Pouf, you conniving bastard. Palm really does look her best as a Chimera Ant hybrid. Turns out actually finding Komugi was the last thing he expected to do. And then Killua was a bug zapper. I don't think any of us remotely like Pouf as a person, but goddamn Kirbopher's putting his all into the role. Komugi is starting to have an idea of what's going on. "Bastard" and "baloney" feel like they shouldn't be in the same sentence, yet here we are. You missed your mark, and yet she's out cold anyways. ZAPPY DAN THE MAGNET MAN TIME. Killua, you madman. OVER ONE THOUSAND DROOLING SPECTATORS. Well that plan certainly backfired. Oh crap, he forgot about the game board. In other news, Gon is still fukken pissed. NARUTO SHIPPUDEN - Shino is the most forgettable of the Konoha 12, and he'll never stop giving you grief over it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmpressAngel Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 Hero- God I can't wait to see All Might punch Bakugo through a wall. Yeah good luck with that, ya little bastard. I volunteer to fight All Might next. Ohhhh I'm into Villain Might. Please break Bakugo's face. Yes, leave him here and run away. Recovery Girl is unimpressed. Tiny Bakugo was adorable. Fence Deku. I enjoy seeing Bakugo get hurt. Nah he's not mad because of Deku, that's just his personality. Less talking, more punching. Thank you Deku. Just run for the exit and let Bakugo distract him. You think Bakugo's capable of a sneak attack? BOMB. Please don't kill my boyfriend. It's not that complicated, Deku wants to be friends and Bakugo's just an asshole. HI BOYFRIEND. Christ this is him in slow mode. God I'm gonna marry him. There he goes. Smash me next you strong motherfucker. I'm okay if Bakugo gets all his bones punched apart here. I volunteer to take his place. Aww look at him smile. He did the smash and didn't break his arm, I'm so proud! I love my precious green son. He's wearing 300 pound weights and only has one lung but still damn near crippled them for life. GO AWAY, FUCKHANDS. Aw crap now he's got more people. So we got a crazy girl and some guy who looks like a Frankenstein muppet that someone set on fire. SAO- If he dies in this game does he die in real life? Mug him and take his supplies. I wish that god could steal my memories of this show. He can show you the world. Here, eat this rock. No shit it's a game you dumb fucker. Read the mood you oblivious dipshit what do you think happened. I know she's alive because anime, but there's no reason why they wouldn't have just executed her back then. This sure is some interesting lumberjack action. Maybe you should have more than one goddamn person working on that if it's so important. Yeah sure it's taken 300 years to cut an inch into it but you'll get it in one hit. I'm glad he failed. It's strange to see him being modest at all. This kid looks like a douche. Oh shut up. Of course he's super awesome at swords. Meanwhile in Black Clover, Asta is getting a screaming boner and doesn't know why. Well that's a horrifying concept that I can guarantee will not be adequately explained. I'm already dreading the looming gratuitous rape scene. Boxing- Punch your anger out. Fuck you, Steely Dan. Oh this is not gonna end well. I don't know where he's going with this. This guy is surprisingly chill about the whole thing. Oh, there's a knife. DON'T TOUCH MY KID. Y'all could probably just hit the douche with a van and solve this problem. Hi doggie! I love this kid. Oh you son of a bitch. That definitely sounds ike cheating. Oh shit no wonder he didn't wanna fight Joe. Eat shit, asshole. Listen here lady, fuck you. The moral of this story is that rich people suck. Nanbu doesn't fuck around. I trust Joe. Just let your brother get has ass kicked. Again I say, fuck you lady. Whelp, you're screwed. Get that kid the hell out of town immediately. Bye Joe. Her dress is really pretty. Hi Joe! EAT SHIT, STEELY DAN. Jojo- RIP old man. Jotaro you can stop time. That's some sweet detective work. No, you definitely wanna keep your hands away from that guy. Koichi your egg is no match for that thing. Okay I kinda love that SKULL TANK. Oh hey, he stopped time. What the hell is this thing made out of?! Gee Kira how come your mom lets you have two stands? Ow ow ow ow ow ow. I want this thing as a toy. Just listen to Jotaro, Koichi. Kiddo you have no idea the shit he's seen. Goddammit Koichi. This is the one time Avdol wouldn't help in a fight. ORA ORA ORA ORA. Y'all might wanna call Josuke now. I can't believe he survived having a steamroller dropped on him by a vampire piloting his great-grandpa and yet the hand fetish man is killing him. This is your fault, Koichi. Shit it's still going. OVER HERE. Weigh that shit down, Koichi. GODDAMMIT KOICHI. I love it when Koichi goes into cool mode. Okay that's hilarious. LESS TALKING, MORE DIRECTIONS. Aw crap he broke his stand. What in the fuck is that. Oh my god it talks. THREE FREEZE. Well that did nothing. Uh what just happened? I'm not sure what's going on but I'm glad he's suffering. That's sexual harassment. Act 3 is only capable of starting a sick rap battle. Clover- Welcome to the lesbian forest. This sounds like a fantastic place to live. So then this chick is like, a double fugitive. How did you weirdos even meet? Spousal abuse, laugh at it! So did she become a raging alcoholic before or after the whole witch thing? Not being able to jack off is a curse I actually would wish on someone. W stands for Wumbo. No please, let her stab him. I mean, I'd abandon the lesbian forest for Yami's dick too. I'd choose to just never see her, that's not a real hard decision. Please gag him. That's an invisibility cloak and you stole it from Harry Potter. This is painful. Oh hey it's that one girl who wants to kill them all. Why is Asta even wrapped in the blanket he has no magic. I think those are just called roofies. "Weird but kinda cute" is also how I describe myself on a good day. You dumb fuckers. Kill them all. You girls are right to run away. Oh what the fuck now. Gotta admit, that is one sweetass dress. Hi mom. Oh they're crows not bats. I agree, he's fucking awful. CAW. Oh right, he's good for things other than public nudity. I'm kinda rooting for the lesbian witch queen here. And then these fuckers showed up. Hunter- Fuck you, Pouf. Pay no attention to this sweaty, shirtless man among the crowd. I'm pretty sure "human grapes" are just balls, dude. They're definitely gonna miss one piece and trigger his memories. Ohhh this is not gonna go well. Palm is so much better as a chimeracal abomination than a creepy creepy woman. Oh hey, wolf dude's still alive. Oh goddammit what now. Meanwhile, Caturday. Where the hell did you get a cellphone? This seems like an obvious trap. FUCK YOU, POUF. I got a real bad feel about this. HI KITE. Oh this is gonna hurt isn't it. Fuck you too, cat. OH THIS HURTS. I mean, I know he got his head ripped off back then but I was still hoping for the best. Someone please give Gon a hug. Aww they're friends now. I miss Kite. Aaaaand I'm crying. Now it's time to kill a cat. THIS IS NOT GONNA END WELL. Pouf is the fucking worst. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PokeNirvash Posted February 17, 2019 Author Share Posted February 17, 2019 (edited) DRAGONBALL SUPER - Again, this dumbass knows that there's no Otherworld after getting erased from existence, right? Shut up, 9th Kai. Extremely sore, in fact. It's a little something we like to call "conserving your energy", Supreme Kai. Goku thinking strategically, I bet you anything HFIL's frozen over by now. Oh, so that was what they were called. Beerus sounded awfully un-Beerus-like in the voice there. Around furries, never relax! So much for your flight advantage boi. Careful, Frieza, you'll get a red card if you toy with him too hard for too long. Shut up, 9th Kai. PRIMARY COLOR TRIANGLE OF DANGER. Vegeta punches first, and asks questions later. "You think this is a game!?" It's Goku, it might as well be a game, as far as he's concerned. That cat lady is giving me feelings. I am so sick of this woman's sarcastic laughter. There ain't no cheating in a street fight, Goku. I'm surprised that the Elder Kai is even capable of throwing shade at his old age. SO MANY FEELINGS. Keep throwing that shade, Elder Kai, that asshole deserves it. Okay, I kinda want most of these furries die now. Champa don't know shit about Frieza do he? Beerus is coming this close to choking the life out of 9th Kai, and I wouldn't blame him for doing so. Punch him with your ice arm! Finally, someone thought to duck. See, the ice arm is a good punching implement. Thank you for the recap, Blue Dandy. As I thought, rabbit girl did jack shit. When faced with Frieza, the smartest thing to do is run, even if doing so is equally boneheaded. Welp, can't say they didn't have that coming. Welp, y'all are screwed. THEY ACTUALLY DID IT, THE ABSOLUTE MADPEOPLE. Now their Angel can smoke pot in peace. I dunno, I'd call a tattoo artist who refers to himself as "the tattoo artist" as if him being the best is common knowledge, and tattooing without the need for drawing it first as if he's super-skilled at it, to be more than "just OK". BORUTO: NARUTO NEXT GENERATIONS - Naruto getting wasted, oh how he's grown. Everyone but Rock Lee and Shino are some degree of drunk. Shino knows Kiba only claimed he wanted to be Hokage that one time to get under Naruto's skin. ATOMIC BUTT-DROP. She's going to die doing that job one of these days. Even as Hokage, Kakashi got the short end of the stick. Finally, they acknowledge that Shikamaru took up smoking. Don't you just hate bickering between siblings? BYAKUGAN ACTIVATED. Poked him so hard, even the Nine-Tails felt it. If you're wondering why Gai's in a wheelchair, read the manga. NARUTO IS DED. Remind me never to mess with this child. Clearly he wants to avoid getting stomach-poked to death again. Oh hey, is that the panda from Polar Bear's Cafe? Oh, so he is capable of using shadow clones to do his work. FOOD FIGHT! But not in that way. Welp, time for some father-son bonding time. The ultimate rite of passage: the first visit to Ichiraku. And it's got windows too, good for them! Nice poster. I assume her loving Ichiraku is just a natural extension of her Naruto fetish. Boruto is so tsundere for ninja flicks. NEW SPOILER: Chojuro, Kurotsuchi and Darui are now the Mizukage, Tsuchikage and Raikage, respectively. Not bad for bodyguards. He's not fat, he's just chubby. Boruto is also tsundere for his father. It's thanks to that ramen episode of Dandy that I drink the remaining broth straight from the bowl whenever I have Asian soups. Hey, remember when those two were relevant. DOUBLE KNOCK-OUT. Hinata has extremely good metabolism. What's important is, the stuffed animal was fixed. Apparently it's just now that my dad found out what's been happening in Boruto. MY HERO ACADEMIA - I spent Thursday night, Friday morning, and a good half of Saturday reading MHA crackfics, so actually watching the genuine article may be a little awkward. And already, I prefer fanfic Bakugo to the canon article. Oh hey, I remember this clip from the Cartoon Cipher's guide to ADR. He's following you because you're supposed to be working together in this. That boy ain't right. Maaaaaan, fuck canon Bakugo. You see? You see what happens when you spend less time strategizing and more time arguing? All Might is naturally intimidating, that's why villains fear him as the Dreaded. Yessssss kick his ass All Might. To be fair, Bakugo deserves to be left behind. Now if only his personality was as good as his fighting skills. All Might beating up Bakugo makes me happy inside. [gasp] La creatura... "You may be a jerk... But you're my jerk..." I swear, it's like this boy's refusing character development on purpose. AHHHHHHH DEKU PUNCHED HIM YOU DON'T KNOW HOW EXCITED I AM THAT THAT HAPPENED. And then brave Sir Deku ran away~. God Bakugo is a terrible human being. Oh wow they're actually working together who saw that coming. Unlike you, Bakugo had plenty of time to train his arms to handle it, just be glad you didn't break any bones. Yeah, their feelings are complicated all right. Thanks for letting us know this was a paid ad, now Toonami General has a reason to get mad when asked why by the non-4channers. It's so good to see them getting along, even if it's still somewhat contentious. NOBODY EXPECTS ALL MIGHT. It's not that he's got the power, it's that he is the power. At this point, I'm fully convinced him telling people to die is just hyperbole (except when he means it). FUN FACT: Assy McGee is the only Western animated show to my knowledge that takes place in New Hampshire. BACKBREAKER! And into the bus. I still love watching All Might toss Bakugo around like a rag doll. You haven't truly lived as an anime character until you've punched your father figure in the face. It's all about those rescue points. And penultimate bookending, apparently. Dang, after the crackfic from last night I can't not view Ochaco and Tsuyu as a couple. REPLY TO ANGEL 1: "He's wearing 300 pound weights and only has one lung but still damn near crippled them for life." Both lungs but no stomach, actually. (Unless that was some obscure reference...) It wasn't a One for All-related injury, so it's within her right to heal. Bakugo unconscious for an indefinite amount of time? GOOD. Wow, they ended one episode earlier than I anticipated. Still, with 16 wins and 4 losses, that ain't a bad track record. Meanwhile, at the Legion of Doom League of Villains... You've got a lotta nerve calling anything gross while looking like that, dude. AND THERE'S MURDER WAIFU NUMBER FOUR. SWORD ART ONLINE ALICIZATION - Welcome to purgatory, Kirito. Nope, still registers as St. Louis to me. "Mmm, that's some good virtual water." You know things are bad when you start having nostalgia for things you don't remember. Oh hey it's that one movie girl, does that mean I have to watch Ordinal Scale anytime soon? Huh, looks like we've graduated to English replacing Japanese on the episode titles, then. You really need to stop grabbing for invisible swords, Kirito. A lost child of what now? Clearly a rural legend. It's a fantasy world, so "log out" being slang could make sense, even though you know dang well it doesn't. "Sir"? Rock bread. It's purgatory, Kirito, deal with it. Don't give the poor kid accidental Nam flashbacks. Friendly reminder that Integrity Knights are bigger dicks than Bakugo on a bad day. Yeah, no way they'd execute a child over a few fingertips over the line in the medieval era, no way... DIALOGUE BETWEEN DAD AND I: "The Taboo Index?" "This show has way too many proper nouns." Let me axe you a question... I could feel my eyes burning watching that interstital. Even Kirito thinks this is ridiculous. Two-thousand yen says Kirito fells it in one swoop. Your Gary Stu powers won't work here, Kirito mah boi. Maybe next time try aiming for the huge cut that's already there. OH MY GAWD. You village people trust your book of Da Rules too much. And now my dad called him "Yugioh" even though his name isn't pronounced with a hard G. This dude's a total Bakugo. You had Kirito's curiosity before, puratory, now you have his attention. Welcome to the Church, no Astas allowed. There's only one St. Louis, unless you count St. Louis County. You heard it here first, Akihiko Kayaba kills babies. It ain't SAO without gratuitous waifubait fanservice. REPLY TO ANGEL 2: "I'm already dreading the looming gratuitous rape scene." You should. MEGALOBOX - Joe's pissed that Kirito postponed his show last week, and Mikio blackmailing him may have had something to do with it. It ain't a kid's game, yeah, but it ain't no Tournament of Power either. Fuck yeah, armchair detective work. That was some pretty obvious Recycled Animation no Jutsu there. "What's this sassy lost child doing here?" Fujimaki must be wondering. Ohhhhhhhh that kid just cursed. SHIT COUNT: 1. No one ever expects loan sharks. So is Nanbu the good cop or the bad cop in this situation? Even the dog hates Mikio. If there's someone who knows their animal metaphors, it's Yuri. PAPARAZZI GO HOME. This was what IGPX was missing, a jealous sibling on the managerial side. >_> I'm guessing he just accidentally revealed he was cheating. I'm not sure if this commercial is better or worse than the blowhorn version. You heard it here first, Mikio's a dirty coward. "Your enemy's enemy's a friend" is a way better way of putting it than "Enemy Mine". DIS BITCH. There goes my dad in the other room again, mistaking "Yuri" for "urine". Dirty looks run in their family, it appears. Nanbu you madman. DIS BITCH. It's no use, you'll have to escape through the air ducts. And off goes Joe to play the Big Damn Hero. Shut the fuck up, Mikio. This is the best possible outcome. I've missed this show, and it's only been gone for two weeks. "Mind if I root through your trash?" It's fine if it's you who's doing it, talking bear. JOJO'S BIZARRE ADVENTURE: DIAMOND IS UNBREAKABLE - HERE'S YOUR KILLER TRACK BABY! Koichi, you could really kill to scream less often, it actually rivals the female victims in horror movies in how annoyingly often you let them out when shit goes crazy. Jotaro's gotten smart about this, perhaps too smart... That's the Joestar family for you, scary good at playing armchair detective. He and his buddies were pursued on end by DIO's minions for months, this is a regular level of caution as far as he's concerned. SCRUTINIZE EVERYTHING. Goddammit Koichi. Well, at least it's off Koichi. Now that's what I call an invincible STAND. OWOWOWOWOWOWOWOW. Go long! Believe in your own self-preservation, Koichi. You've seen him, tell Jotaro he's blonde, that should help in his investigation should it continue. VERTIGO. I love that he's even picked up DIO's ways of announcing a time-stop. Well... shit. JOTARO IS DED. Check his pulse, Koichi! I've got an idea, turn on the hot water and just let it run, it'll steam eventually. Koichi's hairstyle's changing, that means shit's gonna get real. How savage of you, Koichi. What a smart distraction. The plot is what's going on, Josuke. One has to wonder why he hasn't just turned off the stove yet. MY BACK! REVERB IS DED. Dammit Koichi, he's probably just molting again. His STAND is now a robot with attitude that can teleport. That's pretty metal. Geriatric turtles. I think I heard that joke in Pop Team Epic once. S-H-I-T outta luck. (Does that count for the shit count?) 100 times gravity: activated. It's fun watching Kira suffer. Great, now the waiter thinks he's in a yaoi doujin. SHIT COUNT: 5. BLACK CLOVER - And that's how the situation went without the contextual flashbacks. The Queen's magic may help, but the Queen herself is a different story. Finral's boner doesn't care whether they're witches or not. "Yare yare..." There's that screaming boner Angel was going on about. Beefier legs than a Santa Tsuji girl. The "W" stands for "Wumbo", let's leave it at that. I don't even need any additional context to know they're shit-talking Sekke. That voice does not fit her, I'm sorry. I have a gut feeling talking about imperfection is gonna be her one-note running gag, like Vetto's despair or Gauche's sister. Not even when he's whispering can Asta tone it down. Neat, an invisibility cloak (sorta). "Don't be stupid; you will buy this product." Nobody tells Asta nothin'. As they say, it's not a true Black Clover story arc without the Midnight Sun getting involved in one way or another. YANDERE EYES. Say what you will about this place, but I like the variety of their outfit colors. Sekke's a true urban legend in these parts. Gender segregation, go? REPLY TO ANGEL 3: "Why is Asta even wrapped in the blanket he has no magic." Yes, but he's still physically visible without it. Who in their right mind would sell love potions at what's obviously a produce stand? [pushes the Easy Button] At least his underwear stayed on this time. NAUGHTY. Glad to see someone thought to dodge those fireballs. Oh god, he even has business cards. And in pseudo-English, no less! "Crap, we're surrounded! Again." LUCKY SMOKESCREEN. Can't patch what's just been recently damaged, at least not right away. Below-average landing, 3/10. The Witch Queen's ability to get around makes Charles zi Britannia's lawlharem conquests look like a joke. CAW CAW MOTHERFUCKER. Such inconsistent animation quality. Even if that image in your crystal ball is legit, I don't see any blood so clearly you're planning on going easy on them. Ruining the plot since last winter, that's the Eye of the Midnight Sun's motto. HUNTER x HUNTER - Just how old is Komugi, anyways? Pretty sure my cursory knowledge of Japanese is telling me that "zetsubou" means "despair" and not "destroy". Oh hey, they're blending in with the mind-servants. "Human grapes" is a stupid name for those sacs. The tiny Poufs transporting the gungi stuff out reminds me of something out of Disney. On that note, did anyone else think the garage entrance to the basement looks a little like a table there? That's a proper noun I could've caught wind of earlier. I want that split-screen vision. Palm's personality post-Antification really is better than her initial. Meanwhile, more gay sex sounds. There's something about these nighttime mansion settings that get me all excited. Of everything I know and don't know about this arc, Pitou having a cell phone is probably the most surprising. Oh dang, a dungeon hallway, now it's getting even more exciting! Pouf with Komugi's face is just wrong. A better Butterfinger. A Betterfinger. Kimi no na wa... I don't think any of us should be surprised that he's dead, I mean we did see his severed head in Pitou's lap about 40 episodes ago. His pupils disappeared, that ain't good. And that's when the fourth stage of grief hits. ZETSUBOU. This banter's just here to break up the despair. You take a break for one minute and then this happens. The only good thing about Kite's death is that we no longer have to deal with Crazy Slots. Speaking of which, I think he'd have actually stood more of a chance against Pitou had his roll for a weapon not been a magical girl stick. And now he's relapsing back into the anger stage. It's both your guys' fault, let's leave it at that. Nevermind, now he's relapsing back into denial, he's going through this real bad. Whatever Palm's seeing, it's something that can't be explained with mere words. Or maybe it can. Someone please step on this nasty little man. NARUTO SHIPPUDEN - This episode exists to reaffirm the theory that Tenten is the most useless of the Konoha 11 (plus Sasuke).

EmpressAngel Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Hero- Nobody likes you, Fuckhands. Of course she's insane and has knives. He looks crispy. I like that he's still so fucking salty about Stain. Dapper Hexxus is the only adult here. Beggars can't be choosers, Fuckhands. Sorry kids you're getting left behind. Damn Aizawa your smile is scaring the children. Sero may have failed but isn't he the real winner here? Can I sign up for extra training with Aizawa? Bakugo is absolutely fucking not going. Awww Todoroki. Awww they have fans. Jesus christ Mineta. GET IT DEKU. Ohhhhh shit it's Fuckhands. Kill it, kill it with fire now. Did that sign there say WOOKIES? Who the fuck sells that? Punch him in the dick and run! Fuckhands is just the worst. Get over it you crusty attention whore. Go save your boyfriend, girl. She is so goddamn cute. Shit all over him, Deku. OH CHRIST THAT FACE. Leave my boyfriend alone he's got it hard enough. Oh thank god. My question is why are you such a little bitch? I want to see Fuckhands and Kira fight to the death for top hand fetishist. Oh good it's All Might's friend. Dad Might is here to pick you up. You're gonna make me cry. Awww mama, this poor woman needs a fucking vacation. I like Cat Cop. Oh hell no don't take my boyfriend away. I love my kids. Let me fight All for One myself. SAO- Wake up you lazy asshole. Oh I didn't know if she was supposed to look like her or if it's just this show's character design. I'm sure she'll be joining hte harem soon. That is a goddamn pokemon. Pies are pretty great, I can agree with that. Life for an NPC sure does suck. That's called human transmutation and you end up losing half your limbs. I'm sure Kirito's gonna wield these sacred arts before we're done here. Has Excalibur just been chilling in a random shed for the past decade? Of fucking course Kirito is the only one strong enough to use it. No shit he's gonna hit it with the sword that's why he asked for it you idiot. I enjoy seeing him fail. Goddamit. You gotta start jacking off a lot more to build up your arm strength. Show, I didn't need to see Kirito's waifish disappointment of a torso. Resist the harem, nun girl. Liking Yugioh is absolutely not gonna spare you from the harem. She's definitely going up to that mountain now you complete dumbass. YOU DIPSHIT. Oh look, history repeating. And then goblins. Great job you idiots. Why do they talk like Gollum. David Bowie was a better goblin king. Boxing- KICK HIS ASS, JOE. Dude you don't have gear to read you're supposed to have the advantage here. Oh you dick. Aim for his dick I bet he doesn't have data on that yet. Sit the fuck down, lady. Oh that's not good you're gonna need your teeth. Y'all shoud take this opportunity to sabotage him. Fuck off, Steely Dan. Do it for the street urchins! I don't know shit about boxing but that can't be a good thing. You suck and you should feel bad. Hey I like his face stop ruining it. Yeah but if he kills him he probably gets disqualified for that. EAT SHIT, STEELY DAN. I'm gonna enjoy seeing him knocked out. Between the two of them they have one complete set of eyes. FUCK YEAH. I'm so proud of him. He's a surprisingly decent loser. Nah, pretty sure she doesn't regret getting her douche brother's ass kicked. Oh fuck you, Drago. Maybe get Joe a doctor now. He's really offering up his fetus as a wife. Urchins are partying it up. Let this man rest. Oh shit pops what have you done. Jojo- I enjoy seeing Kira suffer. Don't touch his tie. You tied his shoes together, what are you twelve? WALLET BOMB. And he would have gotten away with it if it weren't for you meddling kids. RUN FASTER. I kinda love Act 3. And then trouble showed up. Kira is having the WORST day. Sorry Koichi you're fucked. You really should have called Yukako, she'd have just straight up murdered him. I hate that goddamn cat. SHIT is right, Act 3. That was the wrong choice. Don't touch that tissue it's a bomb. At least Josuke can heal him later. Boys y'all really better run faster. Oh shit he's getting Aizawa'd here. Now steal his money. Koichi is so fucking cool. This is not my fault. That's surprisingly nice of you. HI JOTARO! Dont' fuck with Star Platinum. That line. ORA. He's had a steam rollar dropped on him, this is nothing. ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA. He got Kakyoin'd. Nice of y'all to join us. Don't worry about that guy. Brutal murder ain't gonna help you this time. Oh my god you idiots. BITCH YOU THOUGHT. Oh god his hand. What in the absolute fuck is going on here? Aw crap. That is surprisingly smart...wait why didn't he just do that with the button? Nothing to see here, just a dude having a rough day. OH FUCK. Ohhhhhhh fuck. Wait what the fuck? It sure was lucky that he found a guy the exact same height and build in the ten seconds of time he had. Oh shit she's a bomb. WHELP. Clover- Oh my god I don't care. Please just kill them all. "The Hateful" is a title I strive to earn with every episode of this show. Smokey the Bear's gonna be pissed. This bitch has got a great rack. Is it too much to hope that everyone just dies? You got no arms, you stupid bastard. How dare you compare him to Captain Sexy. SHUT UP. Well, that was actually worth a shot and it failed. Yes you're stuck and you should just give up. Yami does what he wants. Shouldn't that sword be draining her magic strings? Yes explain your plan right in front of her you drunk moron. Bitch don't give a fuck. God I hate you all. Aren't you in the middle of a fight? Yes beat him up now so he'll be useless in this fight you dumb bastards. Hi girls! It's like the giant gingerbread man in Shrek. Mongo noooo. I'm not okay with this. This is what dudebros on the internet think feminists are like. The guy with the mohawk is named Mohawk, genius writing there. How are you gonna split up when there's only two brooms? I'M NOT OKAY WITH THIS. I'm definitely rooting for the one with the dragon here. Hunter- Pouf continues to be the fucking worst. Gon's gonna need some therapy. Oh the turntables. KICK HIS ASS, KILLUA. Oh you better run fas t. Quick, punch the cat's face off before Nurse Monster is done. Ohhhhh this is going well. Alright kiddo time to go into berserker rage and rip out a spine. That is one fucking ominous aura. I'm gonna enjoy this beatdown. Holy shit Gon you okay there buddy. I take it back i don't want to see this fight. Oh jesus he aged 20 years into a Hooters waitress. Ya done fucked up now, MeowMix. It's actually creepier that they didn't give him a grown man voice for this. Ohhh that looks painful. Oh fuck Gon what have you done. My dude what is up with that hair. Uhhh I think you're a little late here, Killua. Fuck me I was unprepared for this. And now I'm gonna cry. I miss Jojo Bisky. OH COME THE FUCK ON JUST DIE ALREADY. Oh fuck what now did you lose your goddamn arm again. Buddy that seems like some real unhealthy coping mechanisms. Stump aura. I'm not okay with anything I just saw.
