Toonami |SepOct17| 1 + 1 = YEAH!

podcast stuff: Yeah, to be honest, this podcast feels like it's about nothing but complaints. Not very fun to listen to. Guess I'm sticking with the Showdown.
I've heard good things about that series! Definitely going to read it some day.
Bleach Opening 15...It wants to be put out of its misery.
Alternatively, Bleach had Stands and big nosed women before it was cool on TOONAMI.

Dunno, I remember being pretty positive outside Tokyo Ghoul and maybe Kai (it's moving at a snail's pace compared to previous arcs atm so there's not much to say without spoiling things). There's nothing really hype to get super excited about right now so that might be the problem.
I don't have too many complaints in about the podcast being overly negative.
I think the thread will sometimes veer too negative at times, or view things as totally good or totally bad (ie, hype as shit or garbage).
Though this ain't a half bad community if that's basically the worst thing about it.

I'unno, like, the Super episode was one of the best yet, but you wouldn't be able to tell that at all from the podcast. It just felt like the same old complaints, nobody actually talked about anything. And it's not just Dragonball, there doesn't seem to be much discussed at all. For example, one of the discussion points for Super was "this episode didn't matter, it was filler", which is like, what? Who gives a shit about that?
edit: Though, after listening fully, this week was much better than the last few weeks have been.
...but that probably says more about them than us, heh. Those guys are just horrible.

Really? The thread gets a bit silly sometimes, but I find that it's infinitely better than regular MangaGAF or AnimeGAF.

Maybe one day I'll bust out the YEEET-TAY, give my new pop filter a run and show you all what the power of positivity can bring to the world of podcasts covering late night weekend animation blocks. Maybe if Mobile Fighter G Gundam HD shows up. Or Fairy Tail. Or One Piece returns to save the ratings.
This is the only community thread I visit regularly (that's actually gotten a second OT), and IMO it's a lot better than most, but it still has problems, as does every community thread on GAF.
Most of it is pretty minor and avoidable though, so it doesn't bug me too much.
Even then there hasn't been a good 22 minutes of hate since SAO II ended.
It's more people going why even bother with Unicron and Tokyo Ghoul.
i'm just glad we're not full of a bunch of pervs who get out of control every time there's some T&A....
right?
From time to time this thread has gone nuts over some T&A. Peak was right around the time TTGL and a few other shows were on.
This thread also loves R. DOROTHY WAINRIGHT. There was a bit of a waifu war over Robin when One Piece started. I have the (battle) tendency to gif any breast bounce I have access to because I find them hilarious.
No it's just a few shows.
I knew I forgot something a bit more recently that made me cringe a bit at the youngins.
I think everything on the block, outside Naruto and Tokyo Ghoul, is great, I just feel like right now there's nothing really special on the block. That and a ton of the shows are in a transitional phase of their plots right now, so there's not a whole lot happening outside of setup for future events.
I wonder if people will go all man crazy when D-I-O finally gets out of the shadows and back in the action.
Dio sits on his ass most of Part 3 and sends his minion of the week to do his dirty work. That bastard, denying us what we truly want. JOHNATHANS BODY AND DIO'S SEXY VOICE.
Tokyo Ghoul went from a "lol let's have fun with this" hate watch to "omg this is legal awful uuggghhh" hate watch. But aside from that (& based on the weekly podcast reactions, Shippuden), I don't really think most of the shows at the moment have people who dislike it more than like.
Maybe Kai because of how it's just been dragging lately, but that could just be me. I feel like I'm a lot harder to be "triggered" by something being awful compared to others since it seems I tend to laugh more at a bad show than be mad or bored (save for Dimension W which annoyed me & Unicorn for being duuullllll)
It doesn't seem to be anywhere as bad as when someone on the Toonami Faithful podcast would steer a conversation of an Akame ga Kill episode with "YO, MINE MIGHT BE FLAT CHESTED, BUT SHE GOT DAT BOOTY TO MAKE UP FOR IT" or "ESDEATH CAN DOMINATE ME ANYTIME", to the point I stopped listening because I was so sick of them only talking about the women on the show. Nobody here from what I can remember is anywhere near as bad.

I think this is a factor as well. Outlaw Star is still getting off the ground, it sounds like we've got a while before we're gonna hit Greed Island's "high point", Jojo has a while before getting into its groove, & Super seems to finally be getting to original content.
Basically this.
I feel like for the most part, it only gets brought up if it's SUPER obvious or it's the focus of the scene. Like, it's more making fun of "Gee, this is clearly trying to be fanservice" & what not, or "WOW, they seriously animated this character's body like THAT?"

Why do I keep thinking this guy is Maes Hughes?
Because you know a good father when you see one.

Maybe when Maes died his soul got trapped in another anime.

It's not raining...
You know...I listen to Lacuna Coil and I think Tokyo Ghoul is some needlessly edgy bullshit. Who exactly is the demographic for that show?

Damn, even Knuckles is too mentally evolved to like Tokyo Ghoul.

He's a new age feminist now...
I think that is coming in via Crunchyroll as that is the big series they have been pushing for next season.
Knuckles doesn't chuckle, he rather flex his muscles.

Thank God.
I would like to say we had a good run, but we really didn't.
