Alright it's that time of the month. Only I'm doing things a little differently.

Time to pick my Avatar until September 1st. Updated rules are as follows.

1. Must be properly formatted.
2. Must not get me banned. No nudity. Nothing racist/sexist/against TOS of this site in general.
3. The best submission that is posted here between now and the beginning of Family Guy on Saturday Night right before TOONAMI will be chosen and used for the rest of the month.

Oooooh that is a strong first entry.

Not only have I seen Titanfall 2, but I also played it too. After a few hours of testing,,,I'm hardly impressed *shrug*

Titanfall never seemed to grab me the first time around, so I doubt the sequel will be any better.

Bring Godzilla to toonami.

No joke, love a decent godzilla anime to come to toonami.

That's quite the...hollow realization.

It's MP seems to be getting a mixed reception. Has Infinity Ward lost their touch?

I think people are just getting tired of standard shooty shooty bang bang regeneration shooters.

 

[Jarate]

ADS shooters are a blight upon the fps genre and glad they're loosing steam.

 

[BatDan]

Back from a comic convention. Weak haul today, compared to the last one I went to at least.

Surprising amount of One Piece stuff. I guess it's finally catching on in the states.

 

[Schadenfreude]

Seda, which of you on the site is reviewing SMT IV Apocaylpse?

 

[BBboy20]

I think people are just getting tired of standard shooty shooty bang bang regeneration shooters.

But...they're the ones who started that.

 

[skLaFarebear]

Titanfall 2 looks sick. Can't wait for the tech demo thing to finish downloading so I can finally try it.

Okay, so the full Toonami Showdown ranking for 2012 is up on Youtube, complete with timestamps if you wanna see the arguments for each ranking on this list (plus the downloadable audio version I linked earlier). A few things to note: we counted Ghost in the Shell as one show, and we counted shows in their entirety, so for example early Bleach and the remainder of Naruto were considered.

This list is the result of us five coming to a consensus rather than any actual voting. As a result, the list is reflective of what different people were passionate (or not) about and what compromises we were all willing to make to create a list that reflects everyone's thoughts in some way.

Anyway, here's a screen cap of the list as it looks at the end of 2012:

One Piece has always had a good niche community. With their far superior intellect due to their anime preference. Therefore, the fanbase has money due to their superior taste and intellect and can support that franchise

As long as you had fun. I bet you practiced one of their signature laughs along the way.

[Hellwarden]

Is that a gif from a Toonami show Man God?

It seems vaguely familiar...

 

[Mizerman]

I see Batman, but I don't quite remember the look of the show.

Hmm...

 

[Moaradin]

Inuyasha over Eureka Seven? Boooooo

Casshern Sins doesn't deserve to be down there with Bleach

I misread that as "four years ago". lol

Imagine re-living the lineup from 2012.

Speaking of which...

Noooicccce!

 

[Line_HTX]

Booooo, Eureka Seven deserves to be switched with Inuyasha.

 

[Doctor Decimate]

We had a pretty amusing fight about where InuYasha goes on the list. I think what ultimately hurt Eureka Seven is that none of us particularly enjoy the first half of that show and we had a lot more fun with the relaxed, old school vibe InuYasha gives off.

I fought for Casshern over Samurai 7 but no one was having it.

 

[Grexeno]

You're the worst Man God

It was lower until I remembered exactly what part of Bleach aired that year.

You are a bad person.

 

[ShinRPGamer]

Good God, this thread. I hope you guys aren't like some of the people in this thread.

 

[Man God]

Good God, this thread. I hope you guys aren't like some of the people in this thread.

Some people are just assholes. Other people have been driven temporarily mad by being in love, and having that shattered can bring out the nastiest tendencies in people. If you've ever fallen deeply in love and had that pulled out from under you you'll know this feeling. I've been on the receiving end of someone going nuts after breaking up with them.

 

[Htown]

I should really get around to watching FMA, huh?

 

[Regiruler]

This isn't the thread I hoped it was.

 

[Mizerman]

Oh, you are just the worst type of person.

 

[Man God]

SBT is a couple of good episodes, a couple of boring episodes, and one great episode. It's well done, but nothing special. Might have become something good if it had kept going but it doesn't live up to its potential.

Same sort of people who love this love Firefly for the same reasons. People love rooting for underdogs when they are done by someone they really like when they fail.

 

[Raxus]

I think you aren't giving firefly and SBT a fair shake. Though I do agree it is all about potential and the fact it really came into its own at the end before getting the axe. I'd rank it lower for the same reason as well. Still it was a really fun group watch along with DMW.

 

[Seda]

Eureka Seven is weird. I don't quite like the first several episodes and I don't quite like the last several episodes, but the middle is pretty good

 

[Grexeno]

Eureka Seven is a rankings nightmare because people either love it or despise it.

 

[Man God]

I might be losing my old man memory but didn't Big O Season 2 air that year as well?

 

[B-Dubs]

That depends on if you're a tomato or not.

Yeah, the first half is slow. Like no mercy slow.

 

[Hellwarden]

I really like Eureka Seven, but I can understand why some people might not.

I also really dislike that soccer episode.

 

[Imperial Bishop]

Absolutely. Do it for Shou Tucker.
