If you feel like a screw up, just remember you never held a AMA on 8chan.

Of course the people who did that are still employed I think.

Meanwhile if you show up late once or twice at a job at Arby's, or your boss is just in a bad mood, you can be canned on the spot.

I also think Shield Hero has a huge shot to get onto Toonami, for better or worse (mostly worse). Apparently, Crunchyroll co-produced the show, so it's getting pushed like crazy by them. If we were to get another show from them after Mob Psycho 2, Shield Hero would probably be it.

Apparently that new "Arc System Works" kill la kill game is getting a dub in addition to JP voices.

Cool if they can get the anime dub cast back, but also I put Arc Sys in quotes because it's actually developed by the guys that did that terrible LWA game

Mob Psycho is the only crunchyroll show we've gotten so far so isn't it more of an exception rather than a rule?

I'm glad Arc Systems isn't wasting their talent on Kill La Kill property and is handling Granblue Fantasy Versus instead.

Well yes, but given Toonami and CrunchyRoll are now owned by the same company you'd figure there will be more aquisitions from them in the future. Not to mention that Blade Runner show is a co-production of AS with Crunchy.

If I'm not mistaken, the JP broadcast of SAO III will take a break starting April, so that would be 2 cours done, I think?

-PKMN - Many of the things brought up here were far more interesting than what we got. It's always strange hearing people say "they dont need to try we're going to buy it anyway" and then carrying it over to the COD games and seeing how theyre so varied in fun and interest. I wonder when PKMN will finally you know innovate and push further than what people expect, unless they need to clear house and use a different staff.

-Boruto - Sasuke still took a picture with Suigetsu and co, odd that Sakura couldnt, Only further proof that SasuSaku is noncanon.

-HeroAca - There are rules that you cant use your quirk in public unless you have a hero license. Stop making fun of Sero!!!
Ewwww people really want DekuOcha canon and anime moments? Gross. Keep that out of heroaca please.

-SAO:Alicilization - Eugeo took three months to take the sword from the cave when he was Younger, not at his current age when he was stronger.

-BLack Clover: This was always one of the flaws of the fast pacing of the newer jump series, as the healing comes so fast in chapter/and episode count. I would have liked a bit more time and drama (like Yuno never saw Asta post finding out that his arms couldn't be healed). There was so much potential their with AstaYuno content and the arm. And the arms couldda stayed off for at least one more arc.

-HxH - Killua is the best character and the only HxH that matters. he deserves all the awards, kudos, accolades, praise and encomium. How anyone can say Gon is good is beyond me when someone like Killua exist. There's a reason Killua ranks so high on the greatest character of all times list.

Who does DTL ship Deku with again? Todoroki? I honestly think that would fizzle out pretty quickly if they did go out realistically. It feels like Deku and Todoroki would have a hard time finding things to talk about casually.

With regards to the most recent Toonami Podcast (tagging CKOHLER, B-Dubs, Grexeno):

-No need to insult American writers and animators by suggesting Black Clover is something they would make. Japan can make dumb, generic shit all on their own!
-Part IV takes place 11 years after Part III

for any recap episodes, the podcast should have a clip show about when they talked about said scenes included in the clip show

I can't remember if the MHA recap episode shows the new OP or not. That would be the only reason to watch it.

Free! still needs to come too Toonami. It'd make for an awesome spring/summer show. With MegaloBox showing interest in sports, it is clear that it needs to be considered next.

Judging by Erica Mendez's response on Twitter, she's likely back as Ryuko.

Actually, that reminds me:

If you listen to some of the other music associated with Kira, you can hear that they used the medley from his theme in other songs like in the song used for Sheer Heart Attack (1:22 specifically) & I want to say two more tracks.



It took me a while to notice this, but it's really cool they managed to use that same little tune in multiple ways. I'm sure there's a name for it & I'm just forgetting.

If I recall, don't they just continue as normal?

But if they do cut some shows, it'd be Black Clover & Hunter x Hunter.

Edit: CRAP, I forgot daylight savings is next week. That might mean I might have to leave early & miss out on Jojo since I could lose an hour to get my job done before the church group arrives....

Ya ever stop and wonder if we could harness the energy that DTL has? The energy that allows him to live in his own little world.

What if we could replace fossil fuels with it?
