[Doctor Decimate]

i wonder if he is evil.

 

[Seda]

I get that it's only the third episode, but there soon needs to be something else behind these races. Else it's really will be just "yay they won" or "oh they lost"

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

I think that announcer may be the same announcer from the Legend of Korra.

Can't remember. Korra was like 200 years ago.

 

[Amikami]

I think that announcer may be the same announcer from the Legend of Korra.

I think you might be right.

 

[Shard]

DUN DUN DUN!

 

[Azure J]

I'M SHUTTIN' DOWN THE STUDIO

 

[Doctor Decimate]

whoa that was creepy as fuck

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

You just got Punk'd

 

[ThatObviousUser]

whoa that was creepy as fuck

Yeah WTF was that?

 

[Shard]

Well, that was a good 15 seconds of tension.

 

[Knux-Future]

.......... lame.


this show is boring. Not staying up for this next week lol.

 

[Seda]

I was about to announce bad news, but just kidding we're okay.

 

[SparksterMeta0]

What's wrong with you, bitch?
Could've told them that first?!

 

[BatDan]

Oh good, the community center won't be shut down. Wait...

Yeah, this show needs a bit of tension and conflict.

 

[Dr.Palutena]

I haven't been paying attention, but that felt really weirdly anticlimactic .

 

[Raxus]

Phew. Almost had drama there.

Hey Spike.

 

[slightconfuse]

if you want tos ee takashi gets his ass handed to him.

next episode is for you

 

[ThatObviousUser]

That guy is a carbon copy of Spike, right down to the VA.

Just needs green hair dye.

 

[Schadenfreude]

Spike?!?!?!?!?! Time for Eureka 7.

 

[Doctor Decimate]

...............he does look exactly like Spike, right? i'm not imagining it?

 

[B-Dubs]

Next Week: Enter the Final Boss

 

[Knux-Future]

Gonna get Blum'd next week...I won't see that.

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

That explains Tom's ghost comment.

 

[Amikami]

Was that Spike/Steve Blum again?

 

[ckohler]

That explains Tom's ghost comment.

Mind blown.

 

[Shard]

Yea, really starting to see why this show tanked at the outset, a racing series should not be this slow and plodding and tension free.

 

[MetatronM]

You can tell this show is made by amateurs. It has "we've never done this before but we got to make a show!" written all over it.

 

[Schadenfreude]

So Spike didn't die in the Bebop finale. He just dyed his hair and became a racer in the IG1. Hiding in plain sight. Pretty sneaky.

 

[lazybones18]

Next week: Some Steve Blum goodness

 

[BatDan]

The announcer in Korra was played by Jeff Bennett. http://avatar.wikia.com/wiki/Shiro_Shinobi

Tom Kenny played one of the referees.

Be back in half an hour for the GXP finale. *gets booze ready*

 

[ThatObviousUser]

He's like Batman from TDK Rises. Although with less Catwoman banging and more boring non-drama.

 

[Shard]

Honestly, I have seen this concept done better in Oban Star Racers.

 

[Raxus]

Recommend good racing anime Toonami GAF! Gogogo.

Spoiler

Speed Racer is the obvious choice.

 

[Amikami]

Time for my Eureka 7

 

[mightynine]

It's gone from "IGPX is getting screwed getting stuck behind Thundercats" to "this show is boring" in three weeks.

Impressive.

EDIT: I should add it's not like I'm falling in love with the show either. Do love the music

 

[Levyne]

I'm not a writer, and I'm not creative, but I think a simple tweak would be to have made some sponser give an ultimatum of "we will fund you you win the race against black egg". Make this known to the team. There something concrete hinges on the race. I mean, it doesn't fix overarching problems but it would have been a little more focused in the episode.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

E7 awwwwwwww yeah!

 

[lazybones18]

They should totally show the movie

 

[Raxus]

T minus 30 minutes until we all die.

Yugioh 5Ds duh

 

[Shard]

Well, if something actually happened we would not be complaining.

 

[Mr. Patch]

He stinky

 

[MetatronM]

This episode pretty much explains what the series has been about and what the final gambit for the series is.

Unfortunately, the dub script blows and makes it even more obtuse than it already was!

 

[Schadenfreude]

Hey. It's the man baby.

 

[ckohler]

Why is this character a giant baby man?

 

[ThatObviousUser]

Yugioh 5Ds duh

Going fast makes me feel alive.

My heart beats... in hyper-drive.

 

[Shard]

Finally the cards of the show are to be laid out in earnest.

 

[BatDan]

I wouldn't say IGPX is bad, it's just... kind of there. It needs to pack a punch.

yeah, it's a really obvious fix. kind of shocked they didn't do that.

That theme was so much better than GX's
