mochi Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 You're gonna need to explain that one to me. Also, how you doing drink-wise? You're at all-caps state, maybe take it down a notch. I had a vodka martini and a six pack
ben0119 Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 On a side note, got my blurays this week. haven't tested them yet. Maybe I will tomorrow and give a rundown on quality. I heard on the Toonami Show Rundown podcast that some company called Anchor Bay botched the Blu-Rays. Like, scenes go back and forth between Japanese and English or some shit, and they're blocking people that complain about it to them. You might want to check the Blu-Rays sooner than later. Just look at these reviews - http://www.rightstufanime.com/Ghost-in-the-Shell-Stand-Alone-Complex-Blu-ray
AnimationFan14 Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 Just when I thought I was out of the Laughing Man case they pull me back in
OwlChemist81 Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 It's such a hilarious dissonance trying to watch this and DBZ KFC at the same time!
ben0119 Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 So, that old guy was pretty creepy. This part with Togusa going through the visual footage is cool. Jeez, I've practically got this show memorized, though. Major looking on and smiling. Togusa's a good hubby and dad.
DangerMouse Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 I heard on the Toonami Rundown Podcast that some company called Anchor Bay botched the DVDs.

Just look at these reviews - http://www.rightstufanime.com/Ghost-in-the-Shell-Stand-Alone-Complex-Blu-ray Yeah. In the first ep there's like a 5 second moment toward the end where the dub changes to Japanese and then back again. It's the weirdest error to not catch. Also, even though Bandai Ent has obviously created real subtitles already it has hearing impaired dubtitles in place of real subs. At least the video seems quite good. Hopefully the 2nd Gig set remains error free, I haven't heard any complaints about that one yet and I haven't had time to check mine out yet. They really need to offer replacements. Anchor Bay and therefore Starz/Manga is owned by Lionsgate, they can totally afford it.
mochi Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 if :420: was legal I'd be doing that too but Fhurer Trump wants to put every :420: smoker in interment camps now so PPht
OwlChemist81 Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 Hopefully they fix the damn Blu-Rays soon. I'll just wait a few months before I get them or something.

Just look at these reviews - http://www.rightstufanime.com/Ghost-in-the-Shell-Stand-Alone-Complex-Blu-ray On episode 1 "Section 9" on the first blu ray set there is a moment where for 15 seconds or so the English dub track switches to the sub for no reason and it's very jarring apparently (So far it's the only episode with any issues like that but still). There are other errors though like the set only having hearing impaired dubtitles instead of any proper subtitles despite the fact the old bandi dvds had proper subtitles. Plus there is no chapter stops at all
DangerMouse Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 Togusa's figured it out. Now it's time to get to work and put the facts together.

Not sure how you can fuck up that bad. Anchor Bay is going to have to come around or have a PR nightmare on their hands. Replacements pretty much have to be offered.
mochi Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 **sigh** I hope I'm not too hung over tomorrow :::

mochi Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 that guy with the moustache basically looks like me right now I have a beard and moustache now
AnimationFan14 Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 **sigh** I hope I'm not too hung over tomorrow ::: We need to focus on getting Water In The Mochi asap

These are errors almost as bad as the errors on the first DreamWorks Ghost In The Shell 2: Innocence dvd Remember how shitty that was
DangerMouse Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 Oh hey, this guy makes his first appearance. "If you had anything that wasn't watered down." "That was uncalled for."
saito34 Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 And it's one of the most popular US anime like Bebop (which got a really great blu-ray thru Funi), it deserves a good release. Yeah thats pretty crazy
OwlChemist81 Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 I just love how this discussion has turned into little more than a bitch session about the Blu-Ray! And did y'all catch the inspiration for BabyCakes back there?
DangerMouse Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 "He's a hard headed old dog." You got that right, prepare to get beat dude.

Anchor Bay is going to have to come around or have a PR nightmare on their hands. Replacements pretty much have to be offered. It's not unheard of (Mill Creek Entertainment offered replacements for the subtitle-problem-riddled-release of Gamera 3: Revenge of Iris). But they could very well not. Gonna have to keep track of this.
ben0119 Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 Cyber Tyson is too funny God damn I never got that until now when you guys said it. Still love that scene though. Memorable interaction.
mochi Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 I kinda hope Toonami reruns wolf's rain someday I used to have such a huge boner for Hige

But they could very well not. Gonna have to keep track of this. They pretty much have to. Fans aren't about to take this lying down. And it's not like GitS is some smalltime series where they could sweep this under the rug.
saito34 Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 God damn I never got that until now when you guys said it. Still love that scene though. Memorable interaction. Oh yeah...great scene haha
DangerMouse Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 LOL Batou, nothing's wrong with it. This dude's getting HACKED IN REAL TIME!
Meilag32 Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 if :420: was legal I'd be doing that too but Fhurer Trump wants to put every :420: smoker in interment camps now so PPht Wouldn't stop me. The only reason I'm not right now is due to job reasons, not because of some pumpkin in the White House. Man, I could use some dank nugs right about now.
DangerMouse Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 I kinda hope Toonami reruns wolf's rain someday I used to have such a huge boner for Hige They really should since it's getting a blu-ray too. Funimation's probably going to do a great job with it.
AnimationFan14 Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 The music, the editing, the acting, all comes together so perfectly for this ending sequence Brilliant
ben0119 Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 I kinda hope Toonami reruns wolf's rain someday I used to have such a huge boner for Hige What made you bring that up? You know I had actually vowed to never watch Wolf's Rain again, on account of the person I associated it with, but I suppose I'm past that, at this point.
CountFrylock Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 anyone else feel like toonami tonight was extra mediocre? nothing really epic i think happened
mochi Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 anyone else feel like toonami tonight was extra mediocre? nothing really epic i think happened second
DangerMouse Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 Sucks to have to end on such a high note Yeah, damn that flew by.
CountFrylock Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 IT"S ALREADY OVER?! damn yeah and for more comedies we've seen a million times already...god i wish toonami was longer 3 hours a week is bullshit
saito34 Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 Wouldn't stop me. The only reason I'm not right now is due to job reasons, not because of some pumpkin in the White House. Man, I could use some dank nugs right about now. If Sessions and his goons decide to go after legal weed I'm gonna lose my shit. I hope it backfires on their incompetent asses
saito34 Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 yeah and for more comedies we've seen a million times already...god i wish toonami was longer 3 hours a week is bullshit Agreed
saito34 Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 Yeah, damn that flew by. Yup...those episodes fly by
DangerMouse Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 anyone else feel like toonami tonight was extra mediocre? nothing really epic i think happened Yeah, it was pretty low-key night of eps. Jojo was a pretty good one. As was this ep of GITS. Everything else was pretty "setup episode" yeah. Though I enjoyed the some of the character building in Unicorn.
saito34 Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 Jojo was pretty good. As was this ep of GITS. Everything else was pretty "setup episode" yeah. Though I enjoyed the some of the character building in Unicorn. Yeah...I actually paid close attention tonight and it wasn't all that bad just slow
