Was waiting for that yeah but thankfully not! This show is the best without the weird government mind controlled Da Vinci clone stuff.

It looks like they used these the same way Black Clover used it's second episode: to pad out a trickle of actual canon material to stall for time.

Presumably because what was actually going on in the manga at the time was too stupid than usual to adapt without more context.

EDIT: Wow, this plot is even stupider than usual.

Yet they have more then 100 chapters for Black Clover so there was no need to stall.

The worst part is as bad as this filler is, it's still way more creative with the setting's conceit than pretty much all of the actual canon material.

Turns out Kishimoto is actually really bad at writing Naruto, and the anime team is way better at it.

See: the entire Boruto anime.

I find it funny the show that was known for having two years of filler before the timeskip decided to place random filler of them as kids in the middle of the timeskip stuff.

Okay, so I'm so unsure about being able to stream on my mobile hotspot at my parents' house, I'm not even gonna try, save myself the anxiety. This is fortunate, as I just so happen to have two Christmas things I found on Youtube that I can show! So, here's the schedule as follows:


Saturday, December 16

No Jormungand, special showing of Olive, the Other Reindeer (I haven't shown this before, right? I've never had Goonami at Christmas)




Saturday, December 23

25th Anniversary showing of The Muppet Christmas Carol (I found a version on Youtube that wasn't too messed up by copyright dodging, God willing it stays up)




Saturday, December 30

Jormungand returns, New Year's showing of Your Name




Saturday, January 6

Normal schedule, Kamen Rider Ex-Aid begins during Black Clover

So I went back and reviewed the footage, and in the original Japanese, Steely Dan lets out a horrific groan upon hitting the tower that's missing in the dub.

So in the English version, yeah, he's totally dead :allears:

Checked and compared the scene my self. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mb26KKvbW6w

He does let out a scream in the dub but it's when he's flying, but before he hits the tower.

It was ether that or start from the beginning and take forever to get anywhere.

Anyway as lots of people said we dodged a bit of a bullet when took down one piece when they did. As we were getting close to the point were the anime slowed down to a snails pace.

I'm fine with One Piece being going off air where it did. My annoyance is with him acting like it "never building an audience" was a problem that had nothing to do with their dumbass decision. The "take forever to get anywhere" thing also rings a bit hollow considering Black Clover's anime pacing.

But just in general though, you can't start a drat thing 200+ episodes in then complain about it not gripping people.

You'd basically have to kill Netflix and have it where Toonami needed to be around for anime to get its foot in the door as something popular. If Toonami never died and had more money they wouldn't be so much of a problem as it is, but its where we are now.

Oh no, Black Clover is just stupid and bad right now. The thing they have to apologize for is poo poo like Agami Ga gently caress or Tokyo poo poo being absolute goddamn trash that we all had to sit through because they couldn't even find funny garbage. Where the gently caress was the "audience" for that? Jacking it and just rolling their eyes if there was enough anime tits for them to be appeased on their website? The only reason they're going with Clover is probably because they think they can just steam roll this because its tailor made to be some horse poo poo, by the numbers, replacement for a big three and I'm not loving seeing that actually working on whoever is behind the dub's part.

Whoever sold the rights to Black Clover to the West was apparently really persuasive because they were able to sell both Crunchyroll and Toonami on it being the Next Great Thing, when in reality it's just dogshit
