once the sex gimmick wears off this just becomes an obnoxious fanservice show with a gary stu protagonist that the only real appeal of is the IRL recipies to recreate recipies from the series that each manga issue comes with

And we have 50 something episodes of this?!  Is Demarco mad?

Oh so recipes are included.  That's good.

Why does she talk like that?

supposedly because her japanese mannerism were stuck up and Haughty, and the dubbers thought that a Valley girl voice gave off the same impression of being rich and bitchy that her Japanese voice did

They outline how to cook these dishes in the eps but it's pretty much skimmed through it all.  I'll try to find the recipes whenever they talk about em, but I cant promise I'll be able ot do that all the time.

They can do stuck up voice without the valley girl thing.  Bleh.

I decided to eat some leftovers during this episode (it's only a bit after midnight here), but I'm thinking I might have to try wrapping a potato in bacon.

Then again, I eat bacon-topped potatoes all the time!

Also, just think of what Sasha from AOT would say for this episode's dish!

the manga author also draws hardcore hentai under a different penname

Not sure what you're trying to get at with that addition but yes. Why the hell would he do that if everyone already knows both names are from the same guy?

Oh and for those wondering, no, I never bothered to look up who is in the dub cast of this show. For some reason I never had interest.

It's so goddamn simple my gawd.

This guy sounds like Johnny Yong Bosch.

Soma's voiced by Blake Shepard, not JYB or his FUNi soundalike Micah Solusod.

Isn't Rappongi where that restaurant is where they fuck animals and then eat them?  Or was that just an urban myth?

Roppongi is a neighborhood in Japan's Minato Ward known for all its rich people stuff. But yes, that restaurant does exist, and it is located in Roppongi.

This and the burger King ad right after this legit makes me hungry.

The advertisers know what show they're sponsoring, that much is for sure. ;)

i feel like this would make the casual viewer think all anime is just fan-service drenched in wank material and is secretly about sex or something

Well it's a good thing the four shows that aired before it prove that isn't the case.

oh trust me I know....there's an anime intro where a girl's breast bounce in a complete circle and change places

Ah yes, I'm familiar with the opening you speak of.

11 hours ago, elfie said:

There's an anime ONLY about sexy teachers, and another ONLY about wet schoolgirls' thigh-high stockings.

And let's not forget the one where the girls in various fetish outfits flash their panties to the viewer while giving them a disgusted look.

I don't recall Soma saying this in an erotic tone of voice in Japanese

Sentai knows what audience they want to cater to with this dub. ;)

THEEEEEERE'S the censoring! :D

Thank god it's just a blur filter in a scene with motion. If any edits are just at that level, then it shouldn't be too bad going forward.

Add Soma's dad to the list of bad fathers that have appeared on Toonami.

I don't think he's so much "bad" as he is "misunderstood".

this character's dub voice: LIEK OH MAI GAWD-UH!

SENTAI DUBS, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN.

 the full ending is all the characters naked fucking food until the part where Toonami's ending cuts in

By that logic, you can't say it's censored when they already shorten the ending themes on principle.

Again. Sentai dubs. They have their own, misguided ways of doing things.

Better question, what would Charmy think of this show's food?

Probably the usual response whenever greeted with edibles.

I didn't say it was easy or hard.

https://comicbook.com/anime/2018/10/18/naruto-anime-cooking-ramen-inspiration

Unless you are a next-level ramen lover, ninjas are what come to mind when Naruto gets mentioned. The beloved series has become one of anime’s top title to date, but Masashi Kishimoto didn’t always have a thing for ninjas.

In fact, as it turns out, the creator had plans for Naruto to bypass action entirely and take a more delicious route.

In the past, Kishimoto let fans know his original plans for Naruto were far from expected. The artist sat down for an interview with Naruto Meigen Shubefore, and he told the magazine Naruto began as a cooking manga.

“Naruto wasn't supposed to be about ninjas,” the artist confessed.

“It was supposed to be about a teenager named Naruto cooking ramen. But my editor of that time told me ‘It will never gonna work.’ I had to find something else and this became a story about ninjas.”

Continuing, Kishimoto said he kept the name Naruto because he loves ramen, and he even put his favorite ramen stall from college into the manga.

“Back then I loved ramen. In front of my college, there was this place called 'Ichiraku' where I used to eat ramen.”

Kishimoto might not have made Naruto all about cooking, but the artist was able to lean into his original story at times. After all, it is no secret that Naruto Uzumaki is a ramen fiend, and he will eat as many bowls of it as possible. The decision to put an Ichiraku in the Leaf Village also gave Kishimoto the chance to draw up some tasty dishes, and audiences all over were introduced to ramen through his work as such.

Also, if anyone first learned about ramen from Naruto then they have truly been living in a bubble, and had a deprived life!

I know, it's just that every time one of you says "I wonder who's voicing this character", I just scream out in my head, "ANIME NEWS NETWORK. USE IT!"

Yeah but I'm not gonna look up a voice actor in the middle of a show.

That's what commercial breaks are for. ;)

That's mostly when I post, so I don't miss things going on in the shows.

I've had my attention divided and influenced into seeing things incorrectly before, like the time someone said that the old guy was smiling when Casshern was going on his rampage, and since I wasn't fully paying attention to the show, I heard this person say that and totally thought I saw that too.  But this wasn't the case at all.

I believe my furniture situation had changed after we moved such that I could more easily post during the block.  Don't think I was running between rooms between breaks before but can't remember for sure, lol.  But, when it became easier for me to post during the block, I did post during the shows for a time, until that happened.  Then I went back to just posting during the commercials mostly.
