Argus Zant posted:At the barest drat minimum, he should have at least cut off Uvo's head and taken it back into town to collect the mafia's bounty on the guy. I mean, come on. Again, he's trying to stay as low profile as possible. His revenge is a personal matter, he doesn't care about the moral or monetary benefits pursuing it might afford him, and showing up waving around a Phantom Troupe bleeding head would probably attract all kinds of unwanted attention for him. Besides, he's already proven his worth to the mafia higher ups by this point, there's sweeter gravy trains to be had.

DESTROY GUNDAM, DEVOUR GUNDAM! EDIT: This episode was good because it was light on philosophy babble and heavy on space fighty robots... but now they're talking again and I'm reminded Gundam Is Bad. Kerning Chameleon fucked around with this message at 07:25 on Apr 16, 2017 |

According to the promo for the next Super episode, Mr. Satan mistakenly refers to Beerus as "Beavis," which they can get away with since it's technically an accurate translation!

They've run Family Guy since the block started. They only stopped Futurama reruns when Comedy Central pried it away. And if they ever spend too much money securing a new I.P. for Toonami, you know they'll drag Big O season 2 back out to fill the death slot.

And even then, I couldn't remember or care to recall all the poo poo it needed to carry this nonsense forward. So it was a perpetual nothing from a franchise that constantly had to remind you who Naraku was and why he's bad for almost every episode.

I'm pretty sure Inyuasha was doomed to be boring since all of the characters major problems could be solved once Naraku was beaten. The author set up the story in way that made any meaningful progress effectively impossible.

Didn't Miroku have his Wind Tunnel stolen and then the problem basically took care of itself though? He literally had no motivation to stay after that moment other than "FRIENDSHIP"

Like I remember that was some big loving drama between him and Boomerang girl and when he finally lost the tunnel he was pointless. Also, holy poo poo, Secret of the Cursed Mask was too good of a game for the likes of Inyu Goddam Yasha. Those are like some of the most perfect games to have for an anime. Be some new character that gets to hang out and do poo poo in the world of an IP.

Then when he got his Bee ignoring power, he got a mark on his arm that showed his poison threshold.

I am kind of fond of Naraku killing his treacherous son Hakudōshi by making the bees ditch him. So he had no defense against the Wind tunnel and was instantly taken out by it.

He literally had no motivation to stay after that moment other than "FRIENDSHIP" I think in one of the movies that AS aired back in the day he lost it, but like so many other anime movies, all they do is fight a stupid movie-only enemy that would never be mentioned in the series proper. The movie literally starts with everybody defeating Naraku, then Miroku has a personal crisis when he realizes he's kinda useless. And then of course when the movie only villain is defeated, Naraku shows up and is like "Psych, I was never dead!" then the wind tunnel comes back and Miroku's like "Oh gently caress I just remembered this thing is gonna kill me".

I don't think I've ever flip-flopped over whether I thought a game was good or not than I have in the 13 years since that game came out. I've decided that while it is an incredibly flawed game, it's still an incredibly enjoyable experience to go through and is low-key one of my favorite games.

Doing a little bit of an inventory on what slots will open next now that Jojo is over: Jack is ending in 5 weeks (I don't think they're going to be keeping 11 after Jack ends, though.) We have seven more weeks until Unicorn ends We have 9 more weeks until Tokyo Ghoul ends, provided they don't go immediately into the second season Attack on Titan season 2 will be 12 episodes We have a little over a year left of DBZ Kai We have a round 100 episodes left of Hunter x Hunter Dragon Ball Super is still airing in Japan and we're at least 5 years behind in Naruto.

Unicorn will probably get replaced with Iron Blooded Orphans 2, unfortunately. They've already confirmed they're going into Root A. Stardust will likely replace AOT. Safe to say anything else will be a surprise.

LAST WEEK ON TOONAMI Samurai Jack: Taking Ashi into the city of Aku, Jack finally breaks down during an attack and follows the green rider to who knows where. Dragon Ball Super: Toei ruined the really good ending of Battle of Gods, but at least it's over. Dragon Ball Z Kai: These bad guys wanna steal Gohan's energy and Supreme Kai just kinda lets them because he's good at plans. Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8nWMbOdVVw Tokyo Ghoul: Yeah, this one's back. Kaneki got a boring mask from a boring hot guy because ghouls are boring and edgy. Hunter x Hunter: Kurapika fuckin' wrecks Uvogin. Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works: Shirou and Rin fight Illya and Berserker to a standstill. Saber doesn't trust one of the teachers at Shirou's school. Also at school. Rin tries to kill Shirou and a Servant with purple hair tries to kill Shirou! Eventually, Shirou and Rin come to a bit of a truce.
