Uzumaki - World Premiere - Episode 1 Discussion

[[classic swim]]

Tonight, 12:30 AM

As Shuichi urges Kirie to escape the town with him, the real “spiral” horror begins.

[rpgamer]

Oops. Cut the cable just in time to miss this starting up..

S'ok, I never get to watch anything on Saturday night anyway, Max ought to be just as good.... right?

[[classic swim]]

Pirating.

[PokeNirvash]

Unless they put it under lock and cable provider key, you should be able to watch it for free directly off the [as] website.

[[classic swim]]

I’m suspecting it’ll be the former, but I’ll check it later and see.

[rpgamer]

[as] still has a website???

Judging from the app on my Roku, usually anything actively airing is on a significant delay, if it's unlocked at all.

Actually, checking just now, I've only just realized how much is freely available. Still, not sure I wanna wait that long to resume watching things, and I'm a bad pirate..

Big premiere tonight that I'm really looking forward to, but slim pickings after that. Really wish we kept B2B One Piece episodes considering a single episode of OP feels like 12 minutes of actual content. The full hour at least moves the plot along a little bit.

Yeah, now that you mention it, I think the only thing that makes sense for keeping double MHA instead of double One Piece premieres is if they're preparing to air the next season and now timing it out with double repeats? But who knows.

Missing these last two weekends due to stress and other factors sucked but I'm really looking forward to our upcoming spine-tingling premiere

Yeah, I was gonna ask if anyone knows what the plan is moving forward. Are we getting MHA or anything new? I'll always tune in but, it's be nice to get some newer shows to bulk up the block a bit.

Hope things are on the up and up and glad you could make it for this long awaited premiere. Should be fun.

Don't mind it for this I guess, but still...

[DangerMouse]

Feel like there's gonna be a lot of reaction gifs from this show 🤣

[saito34]

I resonate with Uzumaki because as a kid stories about grown ups and society in general wigging out and becoming possessed/demented. really freaked me out.

[CorbeauKarasu]

a moon shaped scar like Luna

[CorbeauKarasu]

kid's osing it, just like his dad

[CorbeauKarasu]

ah what the fuk, duded

[CorbeauKarasu]

That first half really drew me in heck the first five minutes had me hooked

[DangerMouse]

Never before? lol you were just talking about boys you liked.

[saito34]

A big component of stories like this and what makes them work or work better, is that there must be at least one person along with the MC who sees what's really happening. It's like finding someone familiar and normal in a bad dream. It's a great/familiar feeling. Think Doc Brown when Marty goes to 1955.

Wait, this premiered before tonight?  Was it on Max?  I thought it was on Toonami first.  Well, I guess I'm watching it now.

I still don't get why it's in black and white.  And never thought Toonami would air stuff in Japanese on a regular basis.  Demarco said they never would.

I probably won't be able to comment as much, since I have to read the subtitles.

[CorbeauKarasu]

descend into madness, when they could hav said spiraling into madness.

 

 

he died????

[CorbeauKarasu]

fuckin hell

[CorbeauKarasu]

he's become a spiral

[CorbeauKarasu]

into a helix

[DangerMouse]

WELP

[CorbeauKarasu]

this and housing complex c

[CorbeauKarasu]

[ben0119]

An infestation... of spirals of all things?

Creepy dad is creepy. 

Prettiest girl in school is losing it, too.  Get away, Shiuchi!

Careful, Kirie.

THAT'S how the dad died?

Kirie and Shuichi need to get out already.  I don't care if you've lived your whole lives there. 

The dad is in the cloud wtf... now mom is losing it.

[AnimationFan14]

This is some serious daddy issues

Like dad literally funneling from the sky
