Again, I don't know how feasible it would be to see this on Toonami considering later developments.
Of course, seeing those same developments in a TV anime at all might be unfeasible. It's not the kind of shit you can get away with on Japanese TV these days it seems.
Wait Martians? Is this that racist show about Mars or whatever people mentioned awhile back?

the question is: do they animate 23.5?
Put that way, I'd consider them romanticizing the situation and treating war like a game like historic aristocracy might treat limited war.
edit: lol read that as humane. whoops
If I had to choose, I'd go with F/Z as the most necessary evil here given the strange rules of the game and the large cast.
No, that's terraformers or some shit.
LMAO DTL, so predictable.
Yeah, I'm not gonna side with you for this one.

OVA if we're lucky. Not happening on TV.

Unless we have completely nude females fighting each other I can't think of any amount of violence the series could have that would not be acceptable on Adult Swim that would pass on Japanese TV.
Yeah, but that's a virtue of its short length. Bar scene was kinda bad with the dude who remembered how things were and was never going to forget!!
I've mentally named that guy I'veSeenSomeShit-san

aye, probably.
Aside from the later stuff with
Wild Hunt, specifically the clown
Oh and
Wild Hunt killing Bors' family.

WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?
Wow. That scene where Kirito takes on the world tree by himself. Not gonna lie folks, I liked that scene.
It was really striking to see Kirito finally at his limit. Try as he might, the kid just can't handle an entire raid dungeon by himself. The music and animation during that scene was really solid.
In fact, it was almost enough to make me like this episode!
Then the incest drama reared its horrifying ugly head for the entirety of the last few minutes of the episode.

This is a theory Ill have to test.
Bar scene was fine. The person he's talking to would probably not have an in depth knowledge of military stuff and the guy clearly has some mental hangups from the event (some of which he's probably reminiscent about with the approach of the princess). It makes sense in the context of the show.

The best expo dump was gargantia's as it was the shortest and easiest to follow plus it had a flashy space battle around it to make me forget it was an exposition dump.

I am beginning to learn the ways of DTL now.
Asuna is an outlier.
Nozaki-kun #1
Good question! Let me answer it by... oh, it's a monologue delivering a punchline. Typical shoujo. The premise is more outlandish than turning into animals after hugging the opposite sex. It's not even all that funny. I blame misunderstanding-kun.
Space Dandy 2 #1
He can't even spell his own name! Haha, Dandy is so cray cray! So I guess they're going to continue with this episodic shtick of poor attempts at jokes and wildly inconsistent art styles. Couldn't even finish the episode after the third attempt to drag on a joke. Dropped.
Barakamon #1
Huh. Light comedy, nice pace, characters with behaviours that are actually believable, no laughably incompatible romantic interests and a decent animation budget. Not sure how it's going to develop, but this could be the surprise of the season.
Rail Wars #1
The hype was real! So many wonderfultrains thighs. Makoto Uno delivering the goods.

I fully expect the show to turn the whole thing into a big civil war with the Earthlings trying to survive through backstabbings and other underhanded tricks.
Four cities straight out got nuked and that's not to mention the collateral from the other ships. Just from landing.

I suppose anything goes if we're talking subject matter alone, but particularly despicable stuff is generally implied rather than blatantly shown like it is in this series, even trumping the twins of Black Lagoon in the disturbing factory. Akame ga Kill goes to the very brink of human depravity and covers it in graphic detail while still leaving enough hidden to JUST keep it within the confines of non-pornographic magazines.

I think some are confusing Nozaki-kun with a romantic comedy. Which it is not. Nozaki-kun is love. Nozaki-kun is life. Fuck the haters.
edit: to clarify there is the romantic interest of main female to nozaki. But the humor doesn't revolve around those two entirely. It's more about the manga creating and friends hanging out.

I gotta prepping some popcorn for witnessing your daily fight with firehawk.
Actually hoping for that, alliances made and broken just as quickly etc, that'd be some serious fun.

I've given up on understanding some of firehawk's wild taste variations.
There's a lot of implications in the first ep that the Earthlings don't stand a chance. Like the Martians have seemingly super robots for starters. So I fully expect a Holy Grail type thing, where the Earth Federation tries to hold on but is quickly wiped out, leaving the Knights fighting each other.

Lol. What's going to actually happen in Aldnoah Zero is that the earthlings will bring in a secret weapon that nobody knows about, maybe a reworked alien device. The lead character is apparently a better pilot than all the alien knights. Then Slaine is apparently a very good driver and the bad guys convince him to fight for the cause for you know what reasons. Then you know what reasons was actually a lie, and during one of the fights between dandere lead and slaine, he realizes this so they join forces and apparently between the two of them they can take out the entire alien forces and save earth.
The end.
The end.
I dunno where she is from but I like her.
I need a S2 announcement
New Orleans thing had me wondering since it was apparently a flashback?
They were really specific about the 37 Knights thing which made me wonder if what hit New Orleans was a rogue 38th faction that sides or somehow provided Earth with a way to fight back, especially if they're after the whole Gundam Killer vibe.
Likely not the case but hey, it's fun to speculate.

hmmmm.... this is shoujo ass shoujo, like the humor. Something is up with Sakura's face though... something about it seems inconsistent each scene.

Nah, they said in the map room scene that one was heading to Orleans. That happened in 'real-time'.
Now I'm turning ti back on. damn it

From what I gathered, the series pretty much is a parody. "This is how Americans view Japan and Ninja! (And use awkward Japanese language!)"
