Gon is so stupidly stubborn during his fight with Hanzo.

 

[Crimson_Echidna]

Gon is so stupidly stubborn during his fight with Hanzo.

Gon's stubbornness during that fight is only the tip of the iceberg.

 

[JadedWriter]

Gon's stubbornness during that fight is only the tip of the iceberg.

Oh...I know the depths of Gon's bullshit. Towards the end it just got to the point where I just wanted Killua to be the main character.

Wish granted!

 

[Moaradin]

Gon is amazing towards the end of the show. Love his contrast with Killua.

 

[Zonic]

I hope Gon keeps finding ways to toss stone tiles. Even after the 3rd time, that was still funny.

 

[Crimson_Echidna]

Hate to burst your bubble but that trick is only really used in this arc. Gon will get some new toys to play with though come the Greed Island Arc.

This week Grexeno, B-Dubs, ckohler and Imperial Bishop discuss [...] Beerus retcons,

for like 2 minutes, lol

Spoiler

the podcast's been great

 

[Hellwarden]

 

[cntr]

I was looking that and thinking what the joke was, then realized "oh yeah he doesn't do that in that scene"

 

[Megalosaro]

I've been waiting for the dub to be released before I dig into it.

You're in for a treat. Classic stuff there. They add a pretty neat new character too.

 

[Zonic]

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Monster Hunter is doing a crossover with Sailor Moon

Because OF COURSE, MH has to crossover with everything.

Also, feel old in the fact Sailor Moon is 25 years old this year.

 

[Raxus]

When's Eagle Shippuden?

 

[JadedWriter]

Except Sasuke they're all jobbers.

Gon is such a one trick pony.

 

[Raxus]

I hope Gon keeps finding ways to toss stone tiles. Even after the 3rd time, that was still funny.

It'd be hilarious if Tile Toss became his signature move.

Like a slightly more useful Gymkata.

Wish granted!

My "Get Gon out of this show" moment came way before this happened though.

 

[Hellwarden]

Got a job interview tomorrow to become a mortgage banker.

Guys, how does banking work?

 

[HStallion]

Got a job interview tomorrow to become a mortgage banker.

Guys, how does banking work?

You take money from poor people and then keep it for yourself.

 

[B-Dubs]

You take money from poor people and then keep it for yourself.

And in mortgage banking you also wait ten years and then take the house.

 

[Mizerman]

You take money from poor people and then keep it for yourself.

And in mortgage banking you also wait ten years and then take the house.

Profit.

 

[foxuzamaki]

Got a job interview tomorrow to become a mortgage banker.

Guys, how does banking work?

Also share the profit with us because we're nakama

 

[Regiruler]

Got a job interview tomorrow to become a mortgage banker.

Guys, how does banking work?

Stick all of the money in the pokken charity fund.

 

[JadedWriter]

Adding interest.

Oh...

...don't worry guys.

When have mortgage bankers ever been shady?

Also, Tales of Berseria came out.

I feel like that game is gonna be forgotten coming out right next to RE7.

 

[Man God]

Except Sasuke they're all jobbers.

Gon is such a one trick pony.

Sauce is the biggest jobber of them all. Tricked by a goofball in a mask.

 

[cntr]

Killer Bee's the greatest.

 

[Man God]

First comes rock (tiles)...

 

[JadedWriter]

Sauce is the biggest jobber of them all. Tricked by a goofball in a mask.

I don't know why Sauce listened to him. This is the "sasuke, think" phase of the story that I hate.

 

[Man God]

I don't know why Sauce listened to him. This is the "sasuke, think" phase of the story that I hate.

I mean, he told the truth (except for one crucial detail) which is the right way to trick an impressionable youth.

Even with that lie how he gets from that to "I must kill the Leaf" is nutso.

It's not possible to explain or defend shitpooden so I won't. I find the fuckery of later parts Jojo more entertaining than discussing Naruto.

 

[Man God]

Bring Fuuka to TOONAMI.

 

[JadedWriter]

Bring Fuuka to TOONAMI.

I'm still hoping this isn't another school days. I have watched up to ep 3 so far.

 

[Man God]

I'm still hoping this isn't another school days. I have watched up to ep 3 so far.

It's got a dub so it is a step ahead!

 

[Mizerman]

Killer Bee's the greatest.

Damn right.

 

[JadedWriter]

It's got a dub so it is a step ahead!

That's not what I'm worried about.

 

[Man God]

Damn right.

Killer Bee is the shining beacon of hope in an ocean of misery.

 

[JadedWriter]

Killer Bee is the shining beacon of hope in an ocean of misery.

Because he's a rapping, ninja Mr. T?

 

[Man God]

Because he's a rapping, ninja Mr. T?

Pro wrestling.

 

[Regiruler]

Killer Bee is the shining beacon of hope in an ocean of misery.

Wait, since this is a man god post, and therefore sarcasm, does this mean you dislike killer bee?

I will have to disagree with you.

 

[Moaradin]

Killer Bee is great. He makes the later half of Shippuden a lot more tolerable when he's around.

 

[Man God]

Wait, since this is a man god post, and therefore sarcasm, does this mean you dislike killer bee?

I will have to disagree with you.

Nope, I am being 100% serious.

 

[JadedWriter]

Am I really the only one that legitimately found Killer Bee fucking annoying?

 

[Man God]

Killer Bee is a stark reminder about how interesting most of the non main characters in part one were.

 

[JadedWriter]

Killer Bee is a stark reminder about how interesting most of the non main characters in part one were.

Even most of the Part one cast was interesting, except those within Team 7. Oh I read your statement wrong the first time, we actually agree. Kishi fucked up on Part two.

 

[Mizerman]

Killer Bee is a stark reminder about how interesting most of the non main characters in part one were.

Yep.

 

[zulux21]

And in mortgage banking you also wait ten years and then take the house.

eh... if you are an amateur.

if you focus on convincing people to do a reverse mortgage, and then pounce once they make any payment error even if it was a processing error on your side. you can get it done in months instead of years.

 

[BassForever]

Am I really the only one that legitimately found Killer Bee fucking annoying?

My biggest problem with Killer Bee is that feels like a shitty version of Jiraya and essentially fills the exact same role in the plot

Spoiler

(quirky mentor who helps push Naruto to greater heights)

. He's also introduced at the point where I had given up any hope of Naruto having a satisfying plot resolution.

Killer Bee is a stark reminder about how interesting most of the non main characters in part one were.

Part 2 has a fair share of interesting/fun characters like Karin, Tobi, Hidan, Kakuzu, etc the problem is the main cast is a wet blanket. I'd like to further add Killer Bee represents an odd moment for the series where it seems like we're going to start a wider variety of ninja's from the remaining villages but outside of the Kages and Killer Bee the other 3 ninja villages get pretty shafted.

 

[RampagingSoul]

Killer Bee is a stark reminder about how interesting most of the non main characters in part one were.

Pretty much.

Part Two made most of those characters in Part One almost non-existent or sidelined while introducing characters that I feel were not that interesting or great to me like Sai and focusing so much on Naruto and Sasuke (especially Sasuke...). It didn't help that I never cared much about Sasuke as a character.
