Right then, we shall see if IBO has the second OP and ED soon.

 

[lazybones18]

also, Mumen Rider has shot up to #2 on my favorite OPM character ranking

 

[ShinRPGamer]

And so we begin watching what might be the worst 2-3 episodes of IBO.

 

[Hellwarden]

I heard Gotham starts okay, but gets boring after a while.

 

[Man God]

Mask showed up so Flags are pre raised... though isn't that opening gone?

 

[BatDan]

Why is Gotham still a thing?

 

[GaimeGuy]

What is the measure of a hero?

That's pretty much what OPM is about, as far as Saitama's character arc.

It's not about Saitama finding a challenge or danger. It's about finding meaning when there is no challenge or danger to be had, and his idea of a hero is someone who sticks his neck out in the face of danger when others don't (see: mumen rider).

He can't be the hero he wants to be to himself, since he is never in any real danger. His journey is about realizing he can be the hero he wants to be to everyone else. It's about overcoming his depression and finding meaning through the perspective of others.

Imagine if you wanted to be a theoretical physicist so you could study all of the universe's mysteries. And by the time you're ready to look for work... you realize you've already come up with a grand unifying theory of everything. Suddenly, there are no more mysteries to the universe. You search for new phenomena that contradict your understanding or raise new questions, but can't find any. You understand every possible application of physics, can predict every outcome, and know all that there is to know. You wanted to be someone who ponders the mysteries of the universe, not someone who understands everything about it. But you can now be someone who imparts this knowledge to others, or uses this knowledge to come up with ways to help others.

Why is Gotham still a thing?

IDK.

That song in the trailer was pretty good though.

 

[Raxus]

Meanwhile on the sex boat.

 

[Mik317]

And so we begin watching what might be the worst 2-3 episodes of IBO.

oh lawd.

how?

 

[friskykillface]

Does young Bruce do anything in the show?

Seems like the villains would win in every episode, only batman can beat them

 

[Schadenfreude]

I heard Gotham starts okay, but gets boring after a while.

Much like all the current DC properties.

 

[SparksterMeta0]

Last time:

Spoiler

I can't believe I called it.

 

[Man God]

Homoerotic.

 

[Regiruler]

Oh yeah, the kiss I accidentally looked away from.

And CG hallways.

And new OP!

 

[Shard]

Well, everybody is looking like shit this episode.

 

[BatDan]

Mika is an alpha

New opening!

 

[Zonic]

woah, new OP.

 

[B-Dubs]

I thought he was naked for a minute

 

[UltraGunner]

New op!

 

[skLaFarebear]

New OP? :O

 

[Korigama]

Oh, new opening time.

 

[ShinRPGamer]

oh lawd.

how?

You know how you were all bitching about the brother subplot.

Spoiler

There's another one coming up.

Oh yeah new and inferior intro.

 

[Schadenfreude]

What the fuck is this shit? I want to raise my flags dammit!

 

[Mik317]

THIS IS NOT FLAG RAISING

 

[SparksterMeta0]

Hey! New intro!

We're already halfway through?

 

[Raxus]

Wow this new song is a.....choice. Let's go with that.

 

[Grexeno]

*guitar riffs*

 

[foxuzamaki]

New OP

 

[redmetal86]

No more flags to raise.

 

[Soulflarz]

new op?

 

[mightynine]

This new OP is catchy

 

[ramoisdead]

I'm gonna miss RAISING MY FLAG but hey, new OP.

And it's being played in its full.

And it's not that bad.

 

[Htown]

uh, fuckin excuse me?

flags aren't even being raised anymore? why do I even watch this show?

 

[Shard]

Welcome to the second cour of IBO.

 

[Hellwarden]

One cannot constantly raise their flag.

 

[BatDan]

This does not make me want to raise my flag...

 

[Zonic]

I...think I like this? Certainly prefer it over the first OP.

Still won't win best OP, but think it's one that'd grow on you after a few listens.

 

[Chaotic-Strike]

I guess this is the only time we see a full opening besides the start of Toonami.

 

[Regiruler]

The song is pretty good

The choice of animation is really shit

 

[Man God]

My flag.

Not Raised..

 

[Crocodile]

Oh right I forgot the new opening starts here

 

[foxuzamaki]

U know, I like it better than the first OP

 

[Moaradin]

The new OP isn't that bad. New ED is a total downgrade though.

 

[ramoisdead]

Pretty catchy OP.

Now watch Toonami butcher this next week.

 

[Mik317]

That wasn't bad actually.

still not raise your flag tho

 

[ckohler]

Flag lowered.

But I liked that OP.

 

[Grexeno]

I just got this message on my iAmatraitor

 

[MetatronM]

At least someone in programming was paying enough attention to remember to give Gundam time for the full OP.

 

[Shard]

Going to be interesting to see how they edit Blue Encount down next week.
