Save Tatsumi huh? Well Sentai I got news for you...

(spoilers duh)

Spoiler

HE DIES! AHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Yeah I read the Wikipedia summaries. Still living in the manga, but on a countdown.

Spoiler

Wait what? the show is going to kill off its main protagonist?! seriously?!?!

Yup. Sacrifices himself in the last episode to save some people. They might even do the same in the manga with how things are going.

 

[Grexeno]

Just not caring for its style, or does something about the show bug you?

Probably the style. It's the second "Almost Cowboy Bebop" show in a row, and I'm just kind of done with that.

Oh, last episode. okay I thought you meant now cause that would've actually been bold of them.

 

[Grexeno]

Really, the whole block is sort of a borefest right now.

Really, the whole block is sort of a borefest right now.

Honestly the only show that I find boring excluding filler hell and re-run la re-run is Parasyte. I'm enjoying Champloo and DBZ Kai and I can snark at AGK's bollocks at least

 

[Raxus]

I am not spoiling any of the 'surprises' for AgK.

I will just say shit gets beyond off the rails in the end. Hell, last episode it already started to derail.

 

[ShinRPGamer]

This one?

 

[Zonic]

omg.

I just thought of something.

What if Kurome uses her zombie powers to make it so Nightraid has to fight their fallen comrades like Bulat & Shelle?

 

[Line_HTX]

Remember that there are still loads of people who have never seen Champloo, as crazy as that sounds.

[BBboy20]

Funny enough, my launch title game was Touch my Katamari, which revitalized my interest in the series since I only played the PS2 original, then would later get the PS3 & 360 games.

Well, almost same here.

 

[ShinRPGamer]

HI there.

 

[Line_HTX]

That Kars laughing gif just kills me every time, hahaha



Right, for both Canadians it's their first time.

 

[Raxus]

I am treating Champloo like a treat for many. Trying to drop as little hints as possible aside from my general feelings about particular episodes.

That said a chunk of the show is hazy for me so it is nice to get a rewatch.

 

[Articalys]

What's this? New thread time already?

Off-topic, but it seems like FMA and FMA:B might be the next shows that Funimation loses the licenses to.

Yep. Well, the Brotherhood part so far, at least.

We’ve received an outpouring of fan feedback asking for Funimation to let you know when titles are expiring from our home video and streaming catalog, so we are announcing today that Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood and Fullmetal Alchemist The Movie – Conqueror of Shamballa will be expiring soon. Funimation licenses these rights for a limited time, after which they revert to the original Japanese license holder. After these dates, these titles will be removed from our streaming service on Funimation.com, and we will not be reprinting any more home video products.

Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood: expires March 31, 2016
Fullmetal Alchemist The Movie – Conqueror of Shamballa: expires March 31, 2016

 

[Hellwarden]

Yep. Well, the Brotherhood part so far, at least.

Wow, that's pretty lame.

Just let Funi keep the license.

 

[BatDan]

Yep. Well, the Brotherhood part so far, at least.

Lame... Have a change of heart Japanese license holders. Are you not aware FMA is popular in America. Bah...

 

[Seda]

I'm not especially in tune with the anime industry, but these Funimation expirations are so far all Aniplex produced shows in Japan, right? (Baccano, Darker than Black, FMA)

 

[Doctor Decimate]

was Champloo good this week

thought the last three weeks were kinda eh

It was a much more comedic episode. So its quality depends on your sense of humor.

We got a history lesson on the origins of hentai!

Some paintings were really out there back then. Remember what Mugen said?

hello

 

[Zonic]

Funny thing is, the whole "doing it with a squid" comment is actually a reference to a real-life drawing from that era.

.....I mean, I obviously can't link or post it...

Edit: I'm fairly certain it's a reference to the picture called "Dream of a Fisherman's Wife" by Katsushika Hokusai. Though in that picture, it's an octopus.

 

[bigkrev]

Will Funi be loosing the original FMA?
I'm only asking because the price of the FMA blu-ray has gone up $5 since yesterday....

 

[Zonic]

Even funner fact: That artist Fuu met with/modeled for was an actual person.

& it sounded like it was just the Brotherhood series, not the original. Sacred Star of Milos doesn't seem to be expiring either.

 

[Imperial Bishop]

Grexeno, it's time to change your avatar again.

Only Brotherhood and Conqueror of Shamballa. That said FMA vanilla will likely follow suite at some point.

 

[Seda]

I was wondering where Grexeno's avatar is from. I guessed it was a Pokemon, like mine.

 

[Doctor Decimate]

GUYS I NEED TO WATCH LIKE 44 EPISODES OF FMA BROTHERHOOD BEFORE IT SELLS OUT ON AMAZON TO DETERMINE IF I SHOULD SPONTANEOUSLY BUY IT OR NOT

I FEEL LIKE IT STOPS BEING SPONTANEOUS AT THAT POINT BUT YOU GET THE IDEA

 

[Hellwarden]

Does this character always wear this mask?

Does he make sick hawk noises while attacking his enemies?

Heh.

That's no mask.

Do it.

 

[Imperial Bishop]

"Mask"

 

[skLaFarebear]

praise our lord and savior

Oh my god lol.

 

[Man God]

I always save Tatsumaki for when they least expect it.

 

[grandjedi6]

Yep. Well, the Brotherhood part so far, at least.

Well fuck. Time to buy whatever DVDs I'm missing of the original before the dubs are lost to time forever.

You should post your thoughts on each episode as you binge through it.

 

[Man God]

I need to collect all the dvds for this before the dub is lost forever.

 

[Line_HTX]

Isn't Brotherhood on Netflix though?

 

[Man God]

Speaking about Netflix, they added the final filler season to OG Naruto. That and a lot of newer Pokémon.

 

[gamerguy2002]

Oh joy, I really want to watch Filler Hell Part 1: The hunt for Sauce again. no thanks, and pokemon doesn't interest me past johto anymore.

Isn't Brotherhood on Netflix though?

I don't really know how licensing works but isn't that once a license is expired it makes a complete pullout from any sort of legal viewing in its region? I would figure it will get pulled from Netflix soon too.

 

[Man God]

...You don't want to watch Naruto filler? All of it even? Like...one episode a day? And review it with gifs and stuff?

I like how that open goes from 90% early movies and Saiyan arc but shoves in multiple super saiyans in like 5 seconds at the end.

Yep! Most of it is Dead Zone and World's Strongest.

This is the basic gist of the Garlic Junior Saga.

 

[Man God]

Main Title, AKA "Rock the Dragon" has an interesting history. It was done by SABAN of power rangers theme, it was originally used for the OCEAN dub, and it was probably sung by the guy who did all the awesome Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers butt rock ballads.

 

[Hellwarden]

Heh.

That's no mask.

"Mask"

Oh, so he's a birdman?

But is he as cool as Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law?

 

[Schadenfreude]

Kinda want to buy FMA Brotherhood for posterity's sake and whatnot but sheesh 80+ bucks. Why couldnt Funi make one big box set that wasnt as expensive?
