The writing is top-notch. You just don't understand. He called her a mongrel, and then she retorted by calling him a man-grel. Only the most talented 2nd graders in the world could write something so poetic.

Yep, I just can't grasp what this show is doing with its script. It's too much for me.

 

[Raxus]

It is like they cribbed every clichéd script ever.

 

[YoodiHoshi]

There's the bumper.

And Patrick Seitz is Star Platinum...
Yeah, I don't think this or that will last for much longer

Meanwhile, I'm setting up for what tonight's episode of HxH skipped

 

[RagnarokX]

Not particularly interested in this, so...

I dunno, it did seem like they applied male gaze at points with that, most certainly when the orangutan was staring at her in the hallway.

I think the idea was to frame it as that behavior being so disgusting it wasn't befit a human, hence disgusting orangutan.

 

[Crimson_Echidna]

This isn't as bad as Naruto filler but its trying its damndest

Naruto filler is worse due to how much there is. This is only 12 episodes compared to the copious amounts of Nardo

Naruto filler gave us the glorious Ninja Ostrich.

None of these villains are as poorly designed as condom dude

 

[Morlas]

Wow the man kills whatever he does, incredible. Get that man a Dragon Ball character to voice already!

he should voice

Spoiler

Toppo

 

[Hellwarden]

I still don't get this anti-smoking ad.

I still haven't seen Wonder Woman.

 

[RampagingSoul]

Wonder Woman was great.

I still don't get this anti-smoking ad.

I still haven't seen Wonder Woman.

You definitely should. I recommend it.

 

[RagnarokX]

Yep, I just can't grasp what this show is doing with its script. It's too much for me.

I'm not sure but it sounds like you took that serious.

 

[Crimson_Echidna]

he should voice

Spoiler

Toppo

I agree, I think he'd be perfect. I'm also hoping they bring is Erica Mendez to voice

Spoiler

Caulifla.

 

[Dr. Chaotix]

Wonder Woman was great.

You know what probably wasn't great? Transformers.

But...that was kind of the point of that scene. That "male gaze" was the orangutan's gaze. The point was to be gross and creepy.

I get not liking the episode, but it's pretty obvious what the tone and sentiment was. The villain lusting after the young girl was literally an inhuman monster.

 

[Jarate]

IT WAS THE EYEPATCH SIR

 

[Hellwarden]

Hmm, watching a MMO raid here...

 

[8 X 11 Printer Paper]

Don't you feel the emotions!?

 

[SigmasonicX]

Oh no, not the incredibly powerful mass murderer! ;_;

 

[Zonic]

This is such a nothing episode

I don't even know what to comment on anymore

It's getting to Unicorn levels of "why should I care about anything"

 

[Xe4]

I'm sure they could've done it in a way that didn't show the viewer of the episode. Shit, Black Lagoon made it way creepier and it didn't show us little girl butt.

 

[Dr. Chaotix]

Too GHOUL for SCHOOL.

 

[RampagingSoul]

I'm not sure but it sounds like you took that serious.

Nah, just joking around. (Especially since the show sadlly isn't)

I definitely know it wasn't serious.

 

[aspiegamer]

There being no side to root for makes this way more painful than it has to be. They've spend equal time trying to get us to sympathize with both sides here, so there's no specific outcome the viewer is meant to care about. Hell, they're reminding us WHILE both sides are dying why were supposed to care. Literally the worst way to try to tell a story.

 

[Schadenfreude]

tfw you and your friends get a good hunt going in Monhun.

 

[B-Dubs]

Am I supposed to care about this shit?

 

[Jarate]

Anime is saved

You can do this without showing it to the audience.

 

[Mik317]

this happens in the manga and then dumb as fuck shit follows.

 

[Xe4]

Are they... are they trying to give the super evil bad guy a sad backstory?
I legit just checked back in so I have no clue (though I think that would've been true if I had seen the whole thing).

 

[Raxus]

I feel nothing

 

[Jarate]

Why am I watching this

I've gained nothing of value out of this besides a deeper knowledge that of you make.something edgy enough, you can sell it

 

[Crocodile]

The owl was the coffee shop owner? He wasn't this powerful last season was he? Wasn't he all about being peaceful or something? Also how did they beat him, it seems like they just started winning for some reason

 

[Zonic]

bye.........i guess........

 

[B-Dubs]

The owl was the coffee shop owner? He wasn't this powerful last season was he? Wasn't he all about being peaceful or something? Also how did they beat him, it seems like they just started winning for some reason

Who can tell...

 

[Hellwarden]

Well if that's the case, the anime might be closer than we previously thought.

 

[Moaradin]

The owl was the old man? I thought it was his son or whatever

 

[Schadenfreude]

Aww man, I didn't get the mantle i needed for my set.

 

[Korigama]

Hm, well alright. Still could've done without it I'd say, but it looks like we're done with anything like that now either way.

 

[Zonic]

& once again, NOBODY wakes up from all this loud shouting

 

[Raxus]

The owl was the coffee shop owner? He wasn't this powerful last season was he? Wasn't he all about being peaceful or something? Also how did they beat him, it seems like they just started winning for some reason

They just needed one more person!

Yeah, WTF? I legit don't understand.

 

[PapaGreg95]

Why am I watching this

I'm watching this because I don't have anything to do right now, so I'm waiting on Hunter X Hunter for the moment

 

[Man God]

I'm kinda sad he's dead.

 

[Mik317]

Well if that's the case, the anime might be closer than we previously thought.

which makes Kaneki's random heel turn even more pointless

 

[8 X 11 Printer Paper]

Nah, you just killed the fake Owl.

 

[Grexeno]

wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut

 

[Zonic]

I legit don't know if I dislike Root A or Unicorn more.

On the one hand, Root A was only 12 episodes.

....but Unicorn had better presentation....but it had Bahnager....

....but Root A has the edginess....

 

[Raxus]

My god. SOMETHING EVEN EDGIER!

 

[Moaradin]

Sure

 

[Schadenfreude]

When you're carving a monster and then deviljho shows up. Time for Hunter x Hunter.

 

[Shard]

That was a nice Tokyo Ghoul induced nap, I am ready for Hunter X Hunter.
