Sword Art Online is bullshit.

Oh wait! Lemme try to say something positive about SAO.

Umm....

It's...a thing that happened?

And uh...music I guess?

Its well animated
Its got a great set up for a story

 

[Line_HTX]

It has good smiles, good animation, good music, great ratings, and a great dub that makes the best out of an atrocious script.

Other than that, Dedication Through Light can take care of the rest.

 

[Jarate]

Klein is a decent sidekick character

 

[Zonic]

It makes you appreciate Log Horizon more.

 

[Line_HTX]

Now I feel terrible for once again forgetting the name of the black Patrick Seitz character.

 

[Mizerman]

You mean Simon from Durarara?

 

[Line_HTX]

You mean Simon from Durarara?

No, Simon is easy. I meant here in SAO.

 

[Zonic]

Funimation celebrates National Dog Day by talking about dogs in anime, 3/4 were on Toonami.

 

[Mizerman]

No, Simon is easy. I meant here in SAO.

Ohhh...

Yeah, I forgot he voiced a character in SAO as well.

P.U.P. ;___;

They should have chosen Alexander for FMA instead. >.>

black hayate is adorbs

 

[B-Dubs]

black hayate is adorbs

He really was.

 

[BassForever]

So do you guys think there's a chance they'd let aot rerun again at 3:00?

 

[Hellwarden]

So do you guys think there's a chance they'd let aot rerun again at 3:00?

They probably could.

It's doing better many nights than One Piece is.

That said, I'm guessing they're gonna re-run something.

Like Space Dandy season 2!

FOLLOWED BY ANOTHER NEW SEASON ANNOUNCEMENT!

Spoiler

Space Dandy, you were too good for this world.

 

[Grexeno]

So do you guys think there's a chance they'd let aot rerun again at 3:00?

No. The rights are probably expiring.

 

[Rakkety Tam]

Funimation celebrates National Dog Day by talking about dogs in anime, 3/4 were on Toonami.

I'd forgotten about the dog from that one episode of Space Dandy... that was a great half-episode.

 

[Seda]

Demarco acknowledged AoT in the 3:00 slot!!1

yeah

 

[BassForever]

Demarco acknowledged AoT in the 3:00 slot!!1

yeah

I wonder why they're being coy about it with it being less then a month away?

 

[Grexeno]

Demarco acknowledged AoT in the 3:00 slot!!1

yeah

"I have no idea what we're going to do."

 

[BassForever]

"I have no idea what we're going to do."

Perhaps thats because they're in discussion with funimation to extend the tv rights to let it rerun both on toonami and on their new internet stream thing

 

[Seda]

Parasyte and whatever is replacing AoT will start airing on October 3. Meaning schedules would start to leak after September 12th although DeMarco et al. have gotten pretty good at blocking (or preempting) that.

 

[Jarate]

Ping Pong confirmed for 3:30!

Spoiler

In my dreams

 

[BassForever]

Parasyte and whatever is replacing AoT will start airing on October 3. Meaning schedules would start to leak after September 12th although DeMarco et al. have gotten pretty good at blocking (or preempting) that.

Perhaps they'll announce their plans for it at Dragon con

 

[Seda]

Perhaps they'll announce their plans for it at Dragon con

October 3 (Parasyte and ???? start date) may line up with Intruder II.

 

[Imperial Bishop]

I hope they re-run Space Dandy again. Season 2 was only aired once last year.

 

[BassForever]

Crazy idea

Perhaps the 3:00 slot will be for Intruder 2 uncut, like they'll play a minute or two during commercial breaks, then at 3:00 they'll air that weeks episode as a 20 minute episode. Then when it's finished Intruder 2 will be feature film length!

Very unrealistic but I can dream

 

[Line_HTX]

I hope they re-run Space Dandy again. Season 2 was only aired once last year.

Amen, they need to rerun Season 2 at least two times. It's a crime that it hasn't been rerun.

 

[TheChits]

Yeah, they REALLY need to rerun season 2 of Space Dandy. Scarlet and Dandy forever <3

 

[B-Dubs]

Yeah, they REALLY need to rerun season 2 of Space Dandy. Scarlet and Dandy forever <3

Yaaaaassssss

 

[Raxus]

I am so on board for a full run of Space Dandy. I really miss that series.

I also have really started getting into Michiko e Hatchin. It has really grown on me in the past few episodes.

 

[Doctor Decimate]

#bringbackdandyseason2

 

[Gucci Messiah]

Dandy needs to return

 

[Hellwarden]

Yeah, they REALLY need to rerun season 2 of Space Dandy. Scarlet and Dandy forever <3

Space Dandy managed to have a more believable, likable, and enjoyable romance in a single episode than most series have in their entire run.

Based Dandy.

 

[Gucci Messiah]

The plant episode and the one where he dates Scarlett are two of the best things I've ever seen on toonami new or old

 

[Line_HTX]

Dancing episode and Gregorian chant are great too.

Honey snd Scarlett <3

 

[Man God]

1. Repeat Season 1.
2. Low ratings cause them to drop it thirteen episodes in.
3. King of the Hill reruns every Saturday Night.

 

[Zonic]

If Space Dandy does rerun again, I sure hope they jump to Season 2. It's not even on DVD/BD yet (comes out Sept. 22nd). Not to mention S1 has aired 3 times & aside from a few standouts (Meow's & QT's episodes are probably my favorites), I don't have much desire to rewatch the entire first season right now.

Speaking of which, oh man, that Funimation store exclusive cover....

 

[Mizerman]

Yeah, they REALLY need to rerun season 2 of Space Dandy. Scarlet and Dandy forever <3

Yes! I need more Space Dandy in my life.

Also, the outcome with Dandy and Scarlet kinda pissed me off. Which is something given that there aren't many fictional couples that I like.

 

[skLaFarebear]

Please air S2 so I can finally watch it. Only seen S1 since I changed DVRs and lost my recordings of S2.

 

[ASSauLTxMasTER]

Parasyte and whatever is replacing AoT will start airing on October 3. Meaning schedules would start to leak after September 12th although DeMarco et al. have gotten pretty good at blocking (or preempting) that.

Backdoor has stopped atm.

Also, Toonami has their Dragoncon panel on the 5th of September. Considering we'll be getting a date for Intruder 2, there's a high chance we'll hear about the AoT replacement as well.

 

[Jintor]

Its well animated
Its got a great set up for a story

am i the only person who thinks most of sao is pretty terribly animated?

or maybe storyboarded is a better description, i guess the animation is fine but the direction is rubbish

 

[Man God]

It's well animated in general. Great backgrounds, good use of color, good action sequences when it can be bothered with them, It's also well scored and there's also nothing wrong with the dub, it's well written for what it is, well acted, great audio.

 

[Seda]

hi man god long time no see

 

[Man God]

hi man god long time no see

I've been back since Sunday night!

Wait a minute, I never left baybee! Man God is in the building, in the hunt for the title!

 

[skLaFarebear]

He never left the building. He was just sitting up in the rafters of ToonamiGAF with a painted mask, waiting to steal the belt.

He is, the Man called God

 

[Line_HTX]

Man God is the biggest fan of KiriCena.

*The time is now, come on*

 

[Man God]

 

[Mizerman]

He's gonna lose his smile at this rate.

 

[Line_HTX]

Mmmmmmm, out of place opening.

If anybody's curious, this is the track for the opening. Starts at 1:08

Am I the only one that kind of likes this edge rock edit opening? It kind of makes me think that "Your Bedtime Story is Scaring Everyone" by In Flames would fit in that shortened opening, lol

I don't see you making any sense...
I guess you deliver misery... just like you should...
Oh~ 9 O'CLOCK!!! And you paint the skies gray~
It's not your fault we're the ones who betray...
