12 more weeks.

When did you become an IGPX hater, Bass? Why do you hate so many things?

 

[BassForever]

Maybe it's just me but I feel like there are less post tonight then normal

 

[Seda]

"starts" it's like 80% of the series, most of that in S2

Nah it's especially prominent in these next episode or so with the teamwork issues. Felt like they wanted strain among the main characters and chose a lazy way to implement that.

When did you become an IGPX hater, Bass? Why do you hate so many things?

Hate is a strong word, I think IGPX is just an average series, it's fine for a once in a while watch though, but it's not the kind of series I could infinitely rewatch like Cowboy Bebop or One Piece. Watching it at 4:30 and dealing with all it's angst again just burns me out.

 

[Conan-san]

I don't think humanity will be able to stand anymore SAO. It is truly the worst thing ever made and should be banished to the shadow realm.

It didn't kill Toonami the first time around.

Say what you will of SAO (and don't get me wrong, I like the fist half, I can deal with the book version of the second but the cartoon version of the same is an utter disaster), but it is no IGPX or Naruto Filler Arc.

 

[Schadenfreude]

In case you didn't see it, Harriet Tubman in today's Google Doodle looks like Asajj Ventress:

 

[BassForever]

And I don't hate a lot of things, I just hate very specific things passionately ala Kickheart or the end of FMA 03

 

[Doctor Decimate]

It didn't kill Toonami the first time around.

Say what you will of SAO, but it is no IGPX or Naruto Filler Arc.

IGPX is definitely better than SAO.

We're almost at 3000. We used to average half that. However, I don't know what the previous four weeks were at, but it was enough with the weekday posts to fill up a thread.

 

[Raxus]

Now I'm sad

 

[Seda]

It didn't kill Toonami the first time around.

Say what you will of SAO, but it is no IGPX or Naruto Filler Arc.

IGPX is better than SAO, easily.

 

[BassForever]

Darn it I thought with s2 being more episode focused we wouldn't time skip like this :/

 

[Schadenfreude]

Another random space fight. Start an episode another way for once, Clone Wars.

 

[Doctor Decimate]

Darn it I thought with s2 being more episode focused we wouldn't time skip like this :/

yeah, this whole in media res thing is annoying.

 

[BassForever]

Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood > One Piece > Soul Eater > Samurai Jack > Space Dandy > Gits > Naruto > Naruto Shippuden > SAO > Bleach > IGPX

 

[Schadenfreude]

Bane sure is getting cozy with all the separatists power.

 

[JB2448]

Star Wars is easily one of my favorite entertainment properties, and yet I still don't know how I feel about The Clone Wars.

 

[Man God]

in media res is my favorite part about the series.

 

[BassForever]

Star Wars is easily one of my favorite entertainment properties, and yet I still don't know how I feel about The Clone Wars.

I know this feel, should have given this budget and episode count to Genndy

 

[foxuzamaki]

Wow this is a continuous story, going on 3 episodes and if you include last season, 4

 

[Schadenfreude]

I kinda hate that guy's accent. Stupid narrator.

 

[Doctor Decimate]

Wow this is a continuous story, going on 3 episodes and if you include last season, 4

this is only the second episode of the season.....?

 

[Man God]

Alpha Numeric!

 

[BassForever]

Anakin is crazy lol

 

[Conan-san]

IGPX is better than SAO, easily.

IGPX is definitely better than SAO.

You'd rather 26 crap episodes over 12? Next you're going to tell me GXP wasn't that bad.

 

[Schadenfreude]

Damn, Bane. That's not how you torture someone.

 

[Doctor Decimate]

your punishment must be more severe, Master Jedi

 

[Seda]

I kinda hate that guy's accent. Stupid narrator.

Tom Kane has a really distinctive voice and I don't really like it. Although I suppose it was okay as that white Boondocks guy trying to get that nuts car-stealing/grandma-hurting kid.

 

[BassForever]

this is only the second episode of the season.....?

We've already established Fox doesn't read his own OT's why would he assume he can actually count of episodes he's watched?

 

[foxuzamaki]

this is only the second episode of the season.....?

wait is it? I lost count between seasons D:

 

[Doctor Decimate]

You'd rather 26 crap episodes over 12? Next you're going to tell me GXP wasn't that bad.

IGPX improved significantly when it shifted most of its focus to the races 3/4 through its first season. and most of Sword Art Online's first season is painfully mediocre if not outright bad, so i really wouldn't say 12.

 

[Conan-san]

your punishment must be more severe, Master Jedi

Though being a Pre-Luke Jedi is it's own damnation.

IGPX improved significantly when it shifted most of its focus to the races 3/4 through its first season. and most of Sword Art Online's first season is painfully mediocre if not outright bad, so i'm not sure where 12 comes from.

IGPX was a load of horse donkeys from the off (Going from the Mech Combat of the shorts to Racing was never going to work) and I never saw any improvement; Main Guy was a wet blanket, the other girl was a so and so and Cat Girl was Hayden Walsh's worst role.
SAO's second half is everything this board throws at it up to and including replacing one story arc with an extended bit with Asuna being groped (It's only retrieve, having Dio's VA be the badguy can't even be afforded to the Dub. Tod Haberkon's a good VA But he's no Takehito Koyasu) that's where the 12 is coming from there.

 

[Schadenfreude]

THAT'S NOT HOW SPACE WORKS.

Tom Kane has a really distinctive voice and I don't really like it. Although I suppose it was okay as that white Boondocks guys trying to guy that nuts car-stealing/grandma-hurting kid.

Oh yeah. He was that guy. Hahah.

 

[BassForever]

What

how is he jumping in space?

 

[foxuzamaki]

dem sexy sexy jedi moves.

 

[MikeMyers]

SOON

 

[thetechkid]

Not soon enough.

 

[Man God]

Darth Maul?!?

 

[Seda]

I cannot type tonight, doubling words and missing other words and blaaaah

 

[BassForever]

Bane needs better henchmen then droids

 

[Schadenfreude]

RIP droids.

 

[Doctor Decimate]

i really wish they would stop making the Droids talk

 

[BassForever]

This episode just makes me wish I was playing Battlefront 2 instead

 

[Schadenfreude]

Poor droids. Do they really have to destroy them? Couldn't they just reprogram them like the kid did that one episode?

 

[Man God]

R2 is a witness to the genocide of it's people.

 

[Seda]

So Bane's goal is the location 'future younglings' right? For some reason. That's what the holocron data was for?

 

[JB2448]

THAT'S NOT HOW SPACE WORKS.

This is coming from the fictional universe where these exist:

Also, damn, R2's seen some shit.

 

[foxuzamaki]

I really do like that bounty hunters are next level badasses in the SW universe who some are on the level of jedi.

 

[BassForever]

Bane is gonna go bad ass on snips isn't he
