Yep. He killed one by stabbing him with pens a lot. Then used the Indoor Fish to kill the other.

A lot of Nen abilities in this show end up being pretty standard power sets, but sometimes they get really weird or creative and end up pretty much being JoJo stand powers. It's great.

too smart. the support fembots follow pre-programmed runtimes that don't require much thinking; the tachikomas are supposed to have organic intelligence that allows them to improvise sufficiently to avoid freaking out over paradoxes

this intelligence is what's going to gently caress them over hard pretty soon

If Sunrise sells it to them for a price reasonable given the ratings, the possibility increases. If it airs at 2 AM I have no problem with that. Even though I'd prefer this schedule:

1 AM - Hunter X Hunter
1:30 AM - Gundam: Ironier Bloodier Orphans
2 AM - Tokyo Ghoul

That wasn't even Neil deGrasse Tyson voicing his animated self, that was Cedric Yarbrough. So the window seems closed.

So question: Is Tokyo Ghoul like crazy popular? I understand it won a poll to get on Toonami, but I just don't see the appeal. I don't think it's even that bad, it's just criminally boring.

Did it? For some reason I thought Mob won and they went with Ghoul anyways. I know Mob 100 will get on there eventually so it's not a big deal but I can't see people voting for ghoul over mob.

Why would you assume the thing that got in based on a poll didn't win that poll.

That was the whole point of doing it.

Unless your some insane anime conspiracy theorist.

I think the reasonable person's vote was split between Mob and Lupin enough that Tokyo Ghoul's fanbase was able to get it to the top.

He did say "show or two" so Mob will most likely be on the block eventually too. Second place Tokyo Ghoul was probably just faster to get for whatever reason.
