Speaking of nuking things from orbit...Shirley Temple.

 

[BassForever]

Man when is Toonami going to do a Shirley Temple movie night?

 

[Man God]

Eureka Seven movie also had space lasers. Akira inspiring others for generations.

So did Star Wars.

Akira is basically anime Star Wars in terms of overall influence of the medium.

 

[Doctor Decimate]

"no, i don't have a dick"

 

[789shadow]

More dicks laying eggs!

 

[Levyne]

At least we don't have hot pockets or ben ten

Man when is Toonami going to do a Shirley Temple movie night?

Yeeeeeees!

 

[ASSauLTxMasTER]

My dick can lay an egg GUYS.

 

[ckohler]

She could lay an egg Shirley, before menopause.

 

[TheChits]

It doesn't even stop at anime.

Akira inspired a ton of stuff.

Indeed. A science fiction classic

 

[SousedLouse]

ANOTHER VOLLEY

You know what they say - in for a penny, in for a concentrated plasma blast from orbit.

Speaking of which, when we get to 2020, can we point one of those sats on the bunker full of Shirley Temple DVDs and pull the trigger?

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Shirley Temple is possessed by Medusa

 

[Shard]

You know, I think I'm gonna have more nightmares about that "Animal Crackers" Shirley Temple song than I will with Akira.

 

[BassForever]

What's weird is that Akira is more popular in the West than in Japan.

So what classic Japanese anime is actually popular in Japan?

 

[Man God]

Didn't gundam already have space lasers by then?

Actually I think Gundam didn't get its first space death ray until SEED!

 

[Future Foundation]

Shirley Temple is still alive?!

 

[Doctor Decimate]

cawnayd'aw

 

[foxuzamaki]

Damn he lost an arm!

 

[Schadenfreude]

Hahah. Kaneda still going.

 

[LOLDSFAN]

His arm is gone.

 

[SparksterMeta0]

You just got disarmed!

 

[slightconfuse]

TETSUOOOOOO

 

[Ultratech]

They took his arm...

And another space laser comes down.

 

[Shard]

I always found it amazing how big Akira got over here with it being as Japanese as it is.

 

[heliosRAzi]

Space Tetsuo!

 

[GaimeGuy]

holy shit

 

[lazybones18]

[VariantX]

So something in their data suggests theres an overlap in the Shirley temple audience and akira audience huh

 

[B-Dubs]

Kaneda never gives up does he?

 

[Imperial Bishop]

Need a hand, Tetsuo??

*get shot*

 

[ramoisdead]

[BassForever]

Kaneda : 31

Barely back from the break and right back to the name yelling

[Raxus]

[Unspeakable Evil]

[Schadenfreude]

Space is the place.

 

[B.K.]

Actually I think Gundam didn't get its first space death ray until SEED!

There was a

Spoiler

colony made into a giant space laser in Zeta.

 

[Shard]

Why yes Tetsuo just took out the Kill Sat using just mind bullets.

 

[Levyne]

Kaneda failed the QTE

 

[BassForever]

Tetsuo : 43

Kaneda : 33

Huh the laser didn't hurt them?

 

[Jintor]
