[Line_HTX]

Amazing dialogue, whut...

 

[Mizerman]

Heh, I just remembered when people used to complain about Nintendo never having any new IPs.

How times have changed.

Oh, some people still get into their feelings about Nintendo IPs. Moving goalposts and covering their ears.

Rocket League?

Saw Spider-Man last night. It's gud.

Also, is Castlevania technically anime?

If you want to count Adventure Time as anime, then I suppose.

 

[Xe4]

Saw Spider-Man last night. It's gud.

Also, is Castlevania technically anime?

Made by American directors, American producers, written by an English writer, directed by american animators (probably with Korean key and tweeners though), for an American (technically international) audience.
If it's anime, pretty much any animated show is.
For sure it's anime inspired though.
Good show. Awesome intro (which they never fucking reuse, lol). Shame about the length.

 

[Morlas]

gotta say though nintendo has been knocking it out of the park in terms of designing new characters lately...

Spoiler

a few designs in xenoblade 2 aside

 

[Raxus]

Netflix has been producing great openings and then never reusing them for other shows too. GLOW had a great one.

 

[caliph95]

You this is probably me just being tired and nothing thinking straight but i just started reading Beastars and................................
I thinking i'm starting to understand zootopias.........popularity

 

[Morlas]

...never heard of it. is it the same reason sonic is popular with certain segments of the population

Spoiler

not that I have any problem with that

 

[cntr]

Beastars is really good. Do need to catch up.

 

[Hellwarden]

Confession time.

I never liked Billy and Mandy, and Evil Con Carne was even worse.

 

[TheSun]

I hated how it leaned into gross out humor, considering that it genuinely made me laugh from time to time.

A funny moment for me was that one time Yogi Bear showed up out of nowhere.

[HStallion]

Castlevania is legit. I'm surprised at how well it turned out.

 

[Morlas]

The best part about billy and Mandy was how lame the boogie man was

 

[Chaotic-Strike]

I just watched Castlevania.

It's way to short and it has some wonky pacing, but it's pretty good for a video game adaption. It could have been way worse.

Same here

Also bring castlevania to toonami

 

[caliph95]

You mean Grim or the one that banged their teacher

 

[cntr]

I thought Billy and Mandy was alright, probably wouldn't like it as much today, heh. Never got into Evil Con Carne.

 

[Sibersk Esto]

Billy and Mandy definitely overstayed its welcome. I think at some point it started having multiple hourly tv specials.

 

[caliph95]

I only remember the crossover with KND which had an eds cameo

 

[Mizerman]

I liked Billy and Mandy, but it's an acquired taste.

 

[Crimson_Echidna]

New Castlevania series is pretty dope. Surprised Netflix is releasing it four episodes at a time.

 

[Xe4]

The only thing I remember about Evil Con Carne was an awesome CN video game that I played when I was a kid.

 

[Morlas]

Ok I take it back the best part was when Numbuh 3 took grim's job

Spoiler

also it introduced me to cthulhu

 

[zulux21]

New Castlevania series is pretty dope. Surprised Netflix is releasing it four episodes at a time.

it isn't?

it released it as an entire season that happened to be 4 episodes.

and then announced today that it has been picked up for an 8 episode season 2.

 

[Grexeno]

Hey it's my thread title

 

[Imperial Bishop]

What's up with the audio mix in the first episode of Castlevania? There were some scenes where I could barely understand what the Bishop and Dracula were saying.

Besides that, this was damn good. Too few episodes for the first season and too long of a wait time for the next one.

 

[cntr]

You know, it kind of sense for a non-broadcast medium to treat seasons more like volumes divided into episodes, since you don't have to air an episode weekly.

Would be a neat direction for Netflix and co. to go in.

 

[HStallion]

So Netflix will take over after the HxH anime finishes its current run and then release 4 episodes every year? I can live with that.

 

[cntr]

Netflix presents the Hunter x Hunter live action adaptation!

Alongside the BBC Masterpiece Theater adaptation of Phantom Blood.

 

[Zonic]

I'll have to invite my friend over to log into his netflix account for us to watch the Castlevania show.

One of these days, I might give in & get Netflix for myself, but the last time I borrowed someone's account, I just got overwhelmed by the selection, decided "meh, I don't know what to watch now" & did something else.

If Netflix does a live action HxH it should start as a kids show... and then....

 

[Imperial Bishop]

I would take 4 episodes a year of Berserk animated by the same team on Netflix over the monstrosity that was the 2016/2017 series.

 

[cntr]

You know, Gon and Killua are younger than the age rating Hunter x Hunter usually gets.

Just get the Game of Thrones studio on it.

No lie master theater phantom blood sounds amazing

 

[cntr]

Tonight, Masterpiece Theater presents the first installment of a five part series, the BBC adaption of Phantom Blood: a story of the dramatic rivalry of two young men in late 1800's England, a noblemen and his adopted brother, which gets thrust into the supernatural thanks to a bizarre stone mask. Enjoy.

And then some old ladies watch Jack the Ripper burst out of a horse.

 

[HStallion]

Someone should give Lin Manuel Miranda a copy of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. The oraoraora song will floor you.

 

[Xe4]

You know, Gon and Killua are younger than the age rating Hunter x Hunter usually gets.

Seeing how Killua's family life is, I don't think he'd have too many problems being allowed to watch it. Poor Gon wouldn't even be able to watch it though*.

*On the other hand, his aunt did let him take part in a competition where people regularly die.

I mean aside from the whole Assassin upbringing I'm sure his brother showed him all kinds of weird HxH anime.

 

[Xe4]

Oh, I'm sure Miluki showed Killua much trashier anime than HxH

 

[cntr]

Killua saw one of Milluki's shows and then he never watched anime ever again.

 

[HStallion]

Killua saw one of Milluki's shows and then he never watched anime ever again.

Killua on Milluki's computer: Huh what's in the Hen Tie folder?

 

[Zonic]

"So THAT'S what the hs in HxH stand for...."

 

[Doctor Decimate]

oh btw there's a new Toonami Showdown

https://soundcloud.com/toonamishowdown/62417-flcl-2-jojo-stardust-crusaders

we talk about FLCL and Jojo and Gundam and stuff plus the block two weeks ago

 

[Morlas]

Toonami Gaf the morning after

 

[BBboy20]

There is a scene in Homecoming that so feels like "I don't wear hokey pads" went full circle.

I'm amazed I manage to laugh as quiet as i did during that scene.

 

[YoodiHoshi]

*On the other hand, his aunt did let him take part in a competition where people regularly die.

There's a filler moment in the 1999 anime where Killua watches either porn or an R-rated movie at a Yorknew Hotel they stay at, sneaking it past Leorio as he searches for Kurapika & asking Gon to come join him
