I remember thinking the dub was a very 90's dub...even though the show came out in the early 2000's...

Catching up on Dimension W, I like how episode 4 found a way for moe-bot to be nude or in a bath towel for half the episode
GXP's strongest points are in its sci fi ideas. There's a lot of neat ideas in it, and also heavily based off of 70's scifi which I really do enjoy quite a lot, although that has died down considerably
The first episode was pretty well animated, and sometimes I do chuckle at some of the slapstick they have as I am also a fan of slapstick comedy (a lost art in america)
Ummm, but yeah, its dub is pretrty mediocre, gotta give credit to the actors, I can't imagine being a female actor for this show, but they somewhat well, but there's definately some awkwardness

GXP is one of those shows that I remember very little of in specifics but do remember that I didn't like it.
How's that OVA series that came out a while back BTW? Is it any good? Or does Tenchi continue its streak of bad/mediocre shows.

Tenchi shows gets unilaterally worse as they release. Tenchi Ova>Tenchi Universe>Tenchi in Tokyo>Pretty Girl Sasami>GXP>OVA3>War in Geminar>Ai
Especially in the art department. The gap is widest between Tokyo and Pretty Girl Sasami. The last truly good Tenchi product in Universe.

You missed the Pretty Sammy OVA and Magical Project S.
I actually have part two of Project S...hmm

Disagree. Daughter of Darkness wasn't that good if only because it needed an extra 40 minutes to tell the story it wanted.
Yeah but look at what I'm comparing it to. Everything after Universe is some form of hot garbage. Each show inexplicably looks worse than the one before it. It's like some Benjamin Button shit. Not to mention the writing.
you here tonight?

Well if you compare a slightly old sandwich to a piles of maure, then yeah, the slightly old sandwich is going to look amazing. By itself though, you're probably not going to want to eat the slightly old sandwich if you have other options.
IIRC, the manga actually had different plot points that could be interesting. Problem is that I don't think they'll ever adapt it for an anime.

The decision to air GXP on modern Toonami is probably the most baffling decision the Toonami team has made.
Did no one stop and ask "Hey....do people still like Tenchi Muyo? I mean this show looks pretty old. There's not much action. It makes references people won't understand."

I think the bigger question is "Do people want to watch a crap show?"
Best anime made on a $5 budget award?
"April Fools, we forgot to clarify it's actually the 1999 version of Hunter x Hunter, enjoy the older version!"
Yesh. Wash mor Tenshi.

He said good shows
fuck slowpoking, that's what I get for ignoring this tab
Wait what?
Was it a miitomo question? I don't think I got any person to persons from you, just one from shin (edit, make that two from shin, I skipped one).
EDIT: Oh you meant the "you have a problem"? Dude you complain about your schoolwork in every other miitomo response.
God almighty we were in enie's lobby two years ago?
No, that was still Water Seven.
Enies Lobby didn't start until August of that year.
Appledough Technique!
One Piece 31-44:
Amazing. Best arc so far. I absolutely love how this series has so many strange little details, like the pinwheel on Genzo's hat, that seem completely arbitrary but then come back in really big ways. Oda is such a master of foreshadowing. I'm not someone who's typically moved to tears when watching something but I absolutely had some rolling down my face during this arc.
My only complaint would be how Luffy's stupidity kept making the situation worse. However, I can't really complain in the end when he fearlessly comes through for his friends like he does. I simply adored Nami's backstory.

Yeah, I'm not quite to sure what you're going on about.
I don't blame them. While the Straw Hats no doubt get stronger as the story goes on, this at least makes their early villains weaker power levels make more sense in the overall story.

This guy has a point. SAO openings are pretty generic.

tfw Taro Yoko is your friend on miitomo cuz you friend requested him early before all the other friend requests.
Okay I'm exaggerating a little.
Making a mental note to never add you.
I wonder if some brave soul will ask kamiya.

Arlong Park is pretty amazing.
No it wasn't.
Arlong Park is where One Piece really becomes One Piece.
The prior arcs are alright, but AP is what sets the tone for a lot of the manga.
Ah yes, this is the one where Meg attempts to drug Chris so this gay guy she likes can have his way with him without either knowing.

Baratie does a good job of leading into Arlong Park and establishing the insane characters and trials to come in the future.
Halfway through that arc Nami bails with the Merry, Zoro is gravely injured (which also plays a role in Arlong Park), and Johny and Yosaku become the first tag-along side characters.

Ah Family Guy...how many times must you disappoint me so.
You had it red though!
