STORY TIME
I'm curious, what is a hair show? Is it like an event to show off wigs or something?
Basically, each year at the casino, companies that make hair products (brushes, sprays, coloring, curling irons, shampoo/conditioner, etc.) set up booths and maybe have models. I think there's also classes as well for styling & such. It's mainly for salon owners and some other women to come see new products and buy them.

I've been able to help out for a few years now as my mom (before passing away) used to work for one of the companies (& had her own salon in town that she ran with her friends) & knew someone who helps run the event.

I'll still be able to make it for Saturday, as that's pretty much just putting a bunch of sampler products into gift bags.

Oh cool, yeah that's kinda what I was imagining. It's like a gun show for hair dressers!

I always am just looking for an excuse to go to a casino. Even if I'm not going to gamble, I get the same sensory overload I would get as a kid in a giant arcade before they went away. So many sounds, ALL OF THE LIGHTS, ect.

My fiancee and I try to get over to the Maryland LIVE casino every now and again just to play the slots. $20 dollars for each of us, see what we walk out with. If we lose our 20, we lose our 20, if we win, we win! Last time I was there, I was up to ~90 dollars up until I decided to lose it all on Lord of the Rings slots. That shit is just fun!
 
I've never been much of a gambler, but I guess it'd be cool to go to a casino just for the novelty of it all. I'd probably get chips and keep them as a souvenir.

I've only ever been in a casino once and it didn't seem like too much of a big deal to me. I'd love to go and play poker, but the buy-in per hand is a bit rich for my blood. Slots don't seem all that enticing at all.

It plays like a simplified version Magic, you understand....

I'm sure tapping is a part of that game, but the (mana) cost is probably pretty high.

Man, being in Vegas underaged seems like torture. Did you at least collect those stipper/prostitute trading cards?

lol. I was there a few months before I turned 21 on a business trip. Couldn't even stand in the lobby without getting hassled by security lol

Happy early birthday, Man God.

You picked the best one! Too bad it doesn't link to the Sakura punching Naruto through the door gif though!

Still I'm more than grateful! Will give me the energy to watch these final two episodes. Might do them as a double header tonight on both sides of midnight.
 
I'm one of the few people alive who actually likes that arc.

I enjoyed the Apis arc as well, my only real problem with it is that it goes on an episode too long. The island rising up to reveal the dragons should have been the finale and Luffy should have already defeated the Sickle guy earlier

And the Bount of ToonamiGAF.

aww shit, now I have to hang my head while doing my errands. At least the bount arc ends with the best Bleach opening.

It's definitely when I noticed a huge difference in the dub quality. It ranges from really good to just ok during the entire SS arc but right after they just lost all their give a fucks.
 
Things I like about it:

The great clip at the beginning where Luffy catapults a sleeping Zoro into the ocean.

Luffy talking to the dragon and understanding what it says, a masterful bit of foreshadowing.

The sea battle is also pretty damn cool.

Things I don't like about it:

Blue Exorcist is the next top line show ending with Black Lagoon right around the same time. SBT is the next show actually ending but that's at the very bottom.

Did you guys hear about this?

I just checked next month's schedule... Timeslots from 12 (Bleach starts) to 2 (One Piece ends) are blank for May 25.

I double checked the schedule and...

May 18:
* Bleach - Episode 345
* Space Dandy - Race in Space is Dangerous, Baby
* Naruto: Shippuden - Hiruko vs. Two Kunoichi! (episode 20)
* OP - Nami's Soul Cries Out! Straw Hat Luffy Makes A Comeback!

May 25 has Attack on Titan for 11:30... Then blank for the next 2 hours, followed by Blue Exorcist and the rest of the regular stuff.

June 1:
* Bleach - Episode 346
* Space Dandy - Lonely Pooch Planet, Baby
* Naruto: Shippuden - Sasori's Real Face (episode 21)
* OP - TBA (No title mentioned, just the show's name)

I don't know if it's an error or... Just thought I should mention it here...
For now, take it with a grain of salt.

Memorial Weekend Movie?
 
Thanks Bass. Only IGPX and GitS are know to have been replaced, right?

Yep, I think it's safe to assume Blue Exorcist and Black Lagoon will not repeat when they finish airing. Space Dandy I feel it's safe to assume it will repeat but if it repeats the entire series or just S2 is unknown, it could also end up dropping lower into the night kicking out another show and rerunning Bebop style forever. Attack on Titan I'm pretty sure won't reair as I imagine Funi is gonna wanna sell some more DVDs and with no peep as to when a S2 of Titan would air in Japan I don't think they'll rerun it to fill for time like they did with Dandy

Bleach is really the one I feel could go either way, I doubt we'll hear about Bleach Blood War anime by the time Bleach's current run ends, and I wouldn't be surprised if they don't rerun some of the later episodes of the series or drop it down and have it rerun OG Naruto style. They could also just replace it outright and end Bleach's run on AS/Toonami though I have a hard time imagining them dropping it completely.

May 25th is the Momocon panel too (or maybe it's the day before). Perhaps they will announce: "Movie night. Eva 3.33. Tonight."

(I don't know how long that movie is, it's just an example)
