I'm looking at footage of the new Doom...

...I don't think I have a problem with the combat finishers in general, and they look like they're super fast, but it looks like you'll be performing a finisher on every 1 out 5/6 enemies.

That's too much. It should be like 1 out of 20. Maybe it'll change with difficulty.

10 hours just to beat the first level of the Nioh demo; big reminder that I really should beat Bloodborne before even attempting to try out out another Souls game. @_@

Say, I wonder what the Hugo Award nominees are this year...

What the fuck?

All this news is just weird...
At least the Board of Directors news sounds interesting, if it means giving NoA more power at least.

Thought the 3 branches mostly functions independently. That what everyone seems to say.

Nintendo's current business model isn't working. It's not competitive. They need to make changes, uncomfortable ones.

And sure, it sucks that you have to wait a bit longer for the next Zelda.

But it's the difference between getting it in November or December, or probably 4/3 months later.

We still don't know if they are or not.

Doubly sucks if you bought a WiiU for Zelda and would hope they would design everything around said console you bought.

That's the same criticism people said when spring of 2013 rolled around, when the games started to roll out. Guess they actually are learning something.

Nintendo's issues are that its ownership was a joke all along who are still stuck in the 90's. I have absolutely 0 faith in any non game Nintendo product (which BTW, given their recent track record isn't that good with its spinoff titles)

I can't say I won't purchase an NX at launch, because at the end of the day, I'm a whore for anything Nintendo, but the company gives me absolutely no hope that they know what they are doing.

It's really a shame. Nintendo has so many IPS that are worth so much that they just sit on and don't use, and thats with them actively shitting out crap spinoff games that completely kill any type of momentum they may have had.

I have a hard time understanding what the hell they are thinking right now. I also hate this Fire Emblem for mobile release, as the last thing I want Nintendo to do is figure out that mobile games are easy money, especially with all their IPs. I do not like the mobile games future unless they figure out a good control scheme in the future for these devices

how about "nintendo is fucking weird"

thats all I can gather from them anymore

OMG

O. M. G.

I just found out Bryce Papenbrook was the main character in the freakin' anime OVA Eiken.

This is freakin' hilarious, especially when you consider the fact it was probably one of his earliest (& perhaps most embarrassing) role.

 

[Hellwarden]

Guys, why aren't we living in the glorious augmented future yet?

I just want sick robot arms okay...and robot legs....and a robot head and chest.

For some reason I feel discomfort and slight strain in my left eye with increased tears...

Just because MHA wouldn't be a dub premiere doesn't mean it won't be the Dimension W replacement.

actually it basically does.
with the past shows that toonami has gotten they got exclusive rights on the dub for a time period. We likely don't have the second half of dbz kai or db super in english at all because it is tied up in a deal with toonami that won't let funimation release it until they do.

There is no way toonami would be alright with funimation releasing a broadcast dub of a show they are about to show.

I mean, those are a lot of assumptions and "it happened this way before therefore it will always happen this way"

Soooooo...Dr. Gero then?

I won't deny the possibility that things could go differently, just like I can't deny the possibility that if you bought a lotto ticket that you could win the jackpot. It's just that the chance is so tiny at this point that it's almost guaranteed not to happen.

That doesn't mean that MHA can't show up at a later time, just that the news that it will be a broadcast dub basically confirms that it won't be dimension W's replacement. (I wouldn't be surprised if toonami wants to wait until the second or even third seasons of MHA are coming out and there are a bigger pool of episodes as this first season of MHA is moving so slow and going to end so quickly that it really wouldn't be worth showing right now. it's clear Bones/shonen jump have long term plans for MHA but don't know what they are yet.)


I am wondering if Amazon could pull off an attack on trains deal to get the show on toonami as soon as possible though.

in other news. Steam anime sale.
dragonball xenoverse GET!

The solution for people buying you gifts when you already buy the games and tech you want?

Food.

I'm got a "burger tour" for my birthday, i.e. I'm getting $15 gift cards for 7 different local places and I couldn't be happier.

 

[Mizerman]

I could go some Five Guys or Steve's Pizza right about now.

I got a 5 Guys here.

And apparently this is Free Weekend galore with GITS, Duck Game, and Paragon.

Brittney Karbowski as Vivian in Cross Ange.

Definitely more upbeat and cheerful than Migi.



Soon... It will begin, heh heh heh...

 

[Man God]

Cross Ange for permanent slot on TOONAMI.

 

[Seda]

Yahoo

 

[Hellwarden]

Soooooo...Dr. Gero then?

If it means I can perform sick robotic feats like him, yes.

Also, bring Cross Ange to Toonami.

We will link the fire with it.

*Imagines the group watch for Cross Ange*

All hell has broken loose.

Someone give me a spoiler free run down of Cross Ange, I'd be mighty grateful.

World where everyone can use mana except for Norma, women who are born without it. Norma are arrested and then they fight dragons in mechs in skimpy outfits and have lesbian fun times. MC is a princess who never knew she was a Norma cuz she had maids and stuff gets found out and sent to Norma Alcatraz where she turns into Big Boss and becomes nuclear

Anime, what have thou wrought?

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

yeah its pretty much the anime version of Girls in Prison, with mechs and dragons and Rito from to love ru

at least until JoJo part 6 which is also Girls in Prison, but less trashier because theres a priest.

I tend not to think of the future much.

Cross Ange will come soon enough.

Cross Ange probably won't happen on TOONAMI given the description.

 

[TUSR]

Cross Ange is less offensive than Akame ga Kill! in some form.

VEE

I like that Cristina Vee is just casually blowing a bubble while driving like a boss.

Shockingly enough, this is true. Akame ga Kill has more stupid things and more randomly throwing the kitchen sink at the wall just to see if it sticks.

Fuck Akame ga Kill and its author forever.

 

[Zonic]

Man, my friend went & saw Ratchet & Clank last night/morning without me. Feels like he does that for the few films that I actually have interest in. Can one of you guys come move to my town? Heck, where's TheAbsolution, that guy sees a ton of films.

but back on topic, Cross Ange would be a spectacle to group watch just based on all the comments I've heard, plus the "bonus" of it having a Sentai dub.

 

[BassForever]

When Cross Ange does dark and twisted things its done frequently as fan service to people who enjoy exploitation and torture porn, that makes it infinitely worse then akame ga kill.

 

[Soulflarz]

Yeah she does stuff like that

RIP

I used to talk to her a decent bit
I haven't like interacted with her in a year

Senpai stopped noticing me

I can do the occasional hatewatch, but Akame Ga Kill over-saturated any patience in that for a while. Can we go for another 6-12 months without adding another idiotic trainwreck pls.

Like, Dimension W is pretty bad, and Naruto is pretty bad, but they don't make me want to break things.

 

[ASSauLTxMasTER]

Toonami or not Toonami

not

 

[Zonic]

Soul perfectly summed up in the ToonamiGAF podcast that DW is "bland bad". I almost want to go into a mini-rant about why I totally agree, but I'll wait until the final episode &/or if I get to be on the podcast again to discuss it.

 

[Mizerman]

AgK...was something that appeared.

 

[TUSR]

soon we will be saved

On topic: What was the last movie that aired on Toonami?

We shall have the answer shortly as 2 shows are rotated out soon.

 

[Zonic]

The actual last movie to air or the last new one that we got?

 

[Mizerman]

soon we will be saved

I thought you said saved, not damned.

 

[TUSR]

The actual last movie to air or the last new one that we got?

How about both?

Was it 1.11 and 2.22?

Seda made a post on this about updating the OP since movies haven't aired in >1 year.

 

[Zonic]

I think the last (new) movie we got was Broly: The Legendary Super Saiyan on Dec. 20th, 2014. Then on the 27th, it was both Eva 1.11 & 2.22, both repeats

 

[Grexeno]

not

This is literally all they do now.

 

[Seda]

Seda made a post on this about updating the OP since movies haven't aired in >1 year.

I just outright removed the Movies listing yeah.

 

[Line_HTX]

The last new movie that was on Toonami was 2.22, since Summer Wars and Akira were repeats, and the rest was the final two episodes of Hellsing Ultimate.

May I ask what do you do to break things?

SAO>AgK

AgK is boring like SAO without the laughable parts. It just exists.
I can't analyze how nonsensical it is vs SAO.

This video alone justifies SAO.

Edit: Saw a guy on reddit named TUSF when looking into SAO hate :>
