Wow...thank god.

I didn't really think about it but last year I think they cut Toonami.

How would they control that?  Isn't the time change always at the same time?

By the way, Daylight Savings Time is a stupid archaic fucking practice that needs to be done away with.

I think she left right after that last useful line when he started babbling, which she probably assumed was coming or something lol :D

I just love that she left like Batman while he was still going on lol.

Yeah LOL, he just kept talking and talking and didn't even notice lol

At least Gordon usually turns around to see he's already gone! :D

Yeah he did start to ramble heh.

That's why it wasn't exactly sneaky haha.  Still funny though. 

I would've liked that cut to happen a little later so we see his reaction heh.

Yeah that scene should have kept going a few more seconds until he finally decides to look lol

It's happened quite a few times.  Not sure if it happened last year though.

Actually, it hasn't happened since 2014. In 2013 and 2014, Toonami went until 6 AM so something HAD to be cut. It was the 2 AM hour in 2013, but I believe it was the 3 AM hour in 2014. However, in 2015 through this year, Toonami no longer went until 6 AM, so there was no need to cut anything out.

Incidentally, Toonami grew by an hour in 2012-2015 and a full 2 hours in 2016 (to air the movie Children Who Chase Lost Voices) when DST ended, but was unchanged in 2017 as the bonus hour was instead given to the Aqua Teen movie, which aired after Toonami.

This is correct. In 2013 Sym-Bionic Titan and Eureka Seven were skipped and in 2014 Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex and Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood were skipped.

Berlin was attacked by missiles in nuclear World War III and non-nuclear World War IV. :| We're never going to learn more about that are we?

Dog not fooled heh.

Did she see him?

I need sleep, Tom. x_x

That's right she's blind.  The camera on the wheelchair was the hint.

Nothing gets past the Major.  Bato let his guard down.

Poor kid.  You're a real piece of shit, Angel's Feathers.

So was it Goda that recommended Bato and Motoko?  Maybe he wanted them out of the country while he got up to some shit.

That's the title of an upcoming episode, right??

it's episode 7 of the first season. when it aired last year it was sd/letterboxed for whatever reason. probably will be a while until gits reruns again so it'd be cool to fill a slot one week and air it properly.

I kinda hate that I knew exactly what episode this was from the first frame, and immediately thought it was a funny coincidence how close it came to lining up on April Fools' again.

Seriously, if it had played just 2 weeks later, I would almost hope [as] would do us the kindness of digging out the audio track again.

A stupid, archaic practice that has no actual use.  The old reason is that it helps farmers, but farmers have little to do in summer, beyond watering the crops.  Spring and Fall are the busy times for farmers (planting and harvesting) so DST doesn't benefit them.

Wet nightmare? What the hell is that? When you get scared to death and still soak the sheets!?

I don't even know how it's possible except for in-dream Stockholm Syndrome!

Goda is an ass though!

I liked Goda.

I knew it had something to do with farming but figured it didn't matter much nowadays given new technology.  So it's even more useless than I thought.  I think I also heard something about kids getting on the bus in the dark or something.  But yeah we need to stop with it.
