You're drunk.

[CountFrylock]

ugh this is gonna be as bad as that one time they marathoned post ennies lobby one piece filler...

to anyone who watches this whole thing...you that bored?

 

[OwlChemist81]

I'll probably be watching some but not all.

I have high hopes that this will do better than the regular lineup has been doing lately, but not by much.

Of course we won't know HOW it does until Wednesday or Thursday, because Tuesday is Christmas.

[Blatch]

It's Santa TOM (5), you uncultured dope.

if this was a selection of high octane super exciting episodes I'd probably have some incentive to tune in...but a bunch of recruitment episodes aren't really what you go to when you wanna see DB

[Daos]

Who wouldn't want to watch a marathon of the worst episodes of Super? Is there a man among us that can say no?

apparently, some people believe this will get the highest ratings of the year simply cause it's A DB Super Marathon even though it's a marathon of crap episodes...

 

 

[mochi]

oh right this is happening

[mochi]

one question

 

why is Bulma in a wheelchair?......Pregnant Women can in fact, still walk

[CountFrylock]

does toonami always have to marathon DB Super around this time of year? because I'd think this would be the time to marathon something else...i mean when the only thing of note happening is people get recruited to fight and that's about it

 

it's about as lame as you can get for dragon ball

they refuse to show movies ever again so sadly yes, Marathonning the worst eps of a show we're all somewhat "meh" about is their game plan

Can't stand it. Wish they'd make an effort to get something halfway decent.

I mean MHA and Mob Psycho are pretty excellent

 

though if they plan on relying on Crunchy for any OTHER decent pick-ups I don't think they'll have much luck since Crunchy is like netflix in that they have a huge selection but most of it is awful with only a rare few precious gems trapped beneath the filth

Yeah...why not a Mob marathon?

[CountFrylock]

also does anyone else find it funny that tomorrow night adultswim's airing a new episode of the shivering truth(one day before christmas eve)and on christmas eve cartoon network airs a new episode of steven universe  yet toonami's the only one out of the group that's actually taking the holidays off

Good call. Yeah, one of those would have been way better for a marathon. Plus they're in a way better set of episodes.

Thanks, you too.

Yeah, they should really try to take into account which set of 7 or so eps a show is up to in leading into a marathon. So they can properly weigh the choices better. Super is in such an fluff/filler-like spot for repeating the last 7 eps.

It was a terrible game, Chargers under performed horribly...... they did not look like an 11-2 team at all.

I think thats the problem. Second straight prime time Chargers game where they come in touted but look completely mediocre.

Yeah. It's not always such an obvious thing but sometimes it's obvious certain shows are in an especially fillery set of episodes

For a second there, I thought you were revealing that Trigun was coming back.

At this point, all we can hope for is a Gungrave-Blood Blockade Battlefront power hour, and even that's asking a lot.

Same here. Was about to celebrate.

Trigun didn't do well in Japan. It's never coming back =P

neither did Cowboy Bebop but it's success HERE made it a cherished franchise

[PokeNirvash]

True, but Trigun is clearly less cherished. Rewatching the series a couple years ago, even I could tell the animation didn't age well. Episode 4 especially; according to the Japanese credits, it was outsourced to the same studio responsible for the infamous Yashigani episode of Lost Universe (to the point of airing that same week, IIRC).

oh no,

to be fair there was a hilarious story about why the first few eps of Lost universe were like that, a fire destroyed the master tapes of the show so they had to hire a company to restore the lost footage.......and the company was NOT very good at working under pressure

I wish.

Yup, Blood Blockade Battlefront would have been so damned PERFECT for the block.

Yeah, fortunately because of that we at least got one more movie.

A Trigun remake with modern animation would be amazing. But like everyone's said sadly incredibly unlikely.

Dat Krillin and 18 high five.
