Yeah, everyone in the show is so austere and uncaring. Togusa gets shot and Major and Aramaki rush in and just want the data. There's no hint of genuine concern or a 'hang in there, buddy' moment. The show in general is so wooden that any time there's humor or light-heartedness it feels awkward.

From what I've seen, the manga looked to have a decent bit of lightheartedness/levity
You're weird.
Yup, because it was more in line of Masamune's style, where people were more laid back & humorous.
...one of these days, I should check out Dominion Tank Police.
Yeah, but from what I've seen, it was rather tonally out of place and weird.
I don't find SAC wooden at all. It's got a pretty good balance between seriousness and humor!

Only had a small look at what it contains in some guy's outlining of the series. Wasn't implying it all was a necessity to the series itself. The tachikomas and certain episodes are arguably already some form of levity!
Funny images!

Time to rank Toonami:
DB Super: ehhhhh it was a meme episode. Ehhhh is my response.
DBZ Kai: Buu is awakening...yawn.
AoT: Ymir carried this shit. Watch it all over again.
Tokyo Ghoul: Don't know, don't care.
DB Super: ehhhhh it was a meme episode. Ehhhh is my response.
DBZ Kai: Buu is awakening...yawn.
AoT: Ymir carried this shit. Watch it all over again.
Tokyo Ghoul: Don't know, don't care.
The 8pm rerun hour technically isn't Toonami either, but I still include it.
Fair.
I will when I have some semblance of free time

Fell asleep last night at 2. New work schedule makes staying up late a challenge now.
Anyway, hearing that Mass Effect Andromeda isn't gonna receive any single player DLC is kinda sad. It's basically EA saying they're giving up on the game, which sucks for fans who decided to support it early on.

Bethesda literally thought people were going to give a fuck about that game's multiplayer.

I bought Doom. Loved it. Fantastic game.
Never tried its multiplayer.

Going right from AOT S2 to Jojo part 3. Tokyo Ghoul aside, we've been getting some pretty solid shows as of late.
Both AOT and Jojo make for fun group watches too.

This is why Killua's the best...

So last night's episode of Super was ugly, but I kinda love Frieza going for Goku's eyes, shooting at Krillin to leave Goku vulnerable.
It shows a sort of awful character development for him, where Frieza on Namek probably would have just relied on brute force, Frieza now is more willing to rely on more underhanded methods.

Now I want to see some fanart of ripped Machi.

As of episode 50, it HAS had a little new animation, but Toonami didn't bother showing it in this cut for some reason
Glad peeps are taking notice to her splendor
Right here, Machi says "If you wanted to kill, you should have aimed for the head"
They had to cut down on dialogue and some scenes due to the pacing they're going at for the next ~18 episodes. (The OVAs did cover most of this, but did so at a pretty slow rate)
...
This is just like the time in the comics where Daredevil fought the Kingpin and discovered that he wasn't fat as assumed.

I wish we'd get more muscular women in anime, even if only to mix things up from the standard moe/cute designs we get.
Who knew Machi was so swole in the abs department?
I'm pretty sure someone out there has drawn a muscular Machi because of this scene.
Mikasa's muscles are more compelling then Eren TBH.
What anime is this? Is the show she's in as good as her physique?
The fact that only Kale gets any sort of muscle definition when turning Super Saiyan in Super disappoints me.

Kabaneri aka Attack on Trains. Show sucks.

I like Kabaneri okay, at least for its action set pieces. It does have one of the most generic Villains though.
In anime at least they try to hard, you either get satan in human skin or edgy emo assholes in order to try to be deep alot of the time
You obviously mean
the Bomber
First half is great. As soon as Biba shows up...run.
I've heard of him

Kabaneri starts off feeling like a pretty decent spiritual successor to the first season of AOT.
Then around episode....7 I think it is, the villain walks into the story, and it falls completely on its face.
Still getting a sequel to it tho.

Togashi has only given one bland villain so far.
He is literally a Jojo villain without the swag.
