Some people love SAO.

Other people love Vita games...even when they aren't on the Vita!

Some other people really love this particular series of games.

Get a perfect storm plus money to blow and...

 

[Raxus]

JoJo this week.

 

[BatDan]

I just bought Lego Dimensions. ... I'm part of the problem.

If I was filthy rich, I would probably get it only for the bonus disc and the artbook because I'm a sucker for those kinds of extra content. It's like watching commentary episodes or behind the scenes look.

 

[Man God]

So when are these panels?

 

[Raxus]

So when are these panels?

Seda had them listed.

Viz is up first (OPM, JoJo) at 4:30 EST.

 

[Tenumi]

So... fair likelyhood finding out Champloo's replacement today?

 

[ckohler]

I think so. Their panel isn't until 7:30 PDT.

Is anyone Neogaf wise at AX there to report back to us?

Metroid Prime Rib is at AX but no word if he is going to the Toonami Panel (he only has confirmed the Mega 64 panel)

Why wouldn't he? he hangs out with us and he knows its important to us to know what goes on in that panel.

 

[Man God]

The only TOONAMI announcement that matters.

If somebody is going to spend time & money (& deal with crowds and event stress) to attend something like this, they can set their itinerary however they want without obligation to anyone but themselves.

That said, I'm sure we'll hear about anything that happens at the panels quite quickly through Twitter and whatnot.

For example, VIZ is doing this right here and right now.

Yeah I get that but again, hes just as much as a Toonami fan as we are I just don't see him not going unless something bigger that hes interested in is happening at that time.

 

[Zonic]

I know, right.

.......use Amazon Prime to get it for $120!!!

Spoiler

My friend would probably get it if he had the money. He lives the series, yet thinks it's one of the worst dubs he's ever heard. Yes, you read that correctly.

That wall of 30th Anniversary drawings is amazing. Drawn by the artists themselves.

This one in particular is pretty seminal for Viz..

Wait, who did the Zelda one?

And the one piece entry is really bad in comparison to the other drawings.

Yeah, some better than others. I'll give Oda a pass considering his medical issues. Also, as much as I'm no fan of Tite Kubo's storytelling, his piece was pretty damn stylish.

Nice.

Wow, that's an awesome set of drawings.

 

[Hellwarden]

The Ed drawing in there looks really cool.

LOL at the two thumbs up by Terraformars.

Favorite one is the Utena drawing. Very classy.

 

[Raxus]

OPM, dub casts.

Can't recognize anyone sadly.

 

[Zonic]

According to Anime News Network:

Max Mittleman as Saitama
Zach Aguilar as Genos
Robbie Daymond as Mumen Rider
Erik Kimerer as Speed 'o' Sound Sonic

 

[Hellwarden]

Not exactly a bunch of big names, but they all have some experience.

Looking forward to the dub.

 

[Line_HTX]

I hope Max Mittleman delivers the most

Spoiler

nonchalant "OK"

up on stage.

 

[Zonic]

First Patrick Seitz isn't All Might, now Johnny Yong Bosch isn't Genos.

Instead, Genos is Takaki Uno from Iron Blooded Orphans & Mumen Rider is Tuxedo Mask from Viz's Sailor Moon dub.

Sonic is voiced by IBO's Biscuit.

 

[Mizerman]

Well, the dub could still be fine. I remain optimistic.

 

[Seda]

Max voices Ein in Gundam (he was one of the mobile suit pilots for Gjallerhorn introduced in the first two episodes, and actually the only one still alive.)

He's also the main character in Star Ocean 5, although I haven't played that.

 

[Raxus]

Well, the dub could still be fine. I remain optimistic.

They are all solid, just green behind the ears. Should be fine. It'd be hard to match the perfection of the OG cast though.

 

[Line_HTX]

I think having some new blood should be fun, as long as the voice director knows what he's doing.

I'm cautiously hyped about OPM dub.

 

[Zonic]

So the dub will be oKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK.

Good point. The series is kinda out-there and different anyway.

[Imperial Bishop]

OPM dub cast looks solid.

It's pretty much all but confirmed for Toonami now. >.>

How are those legs even supporting her up? Are they connected to the background prop?

 

[Zonic]

Actually, kind of had a random thought about Champloo's replacement.

Considering ratings are down during summer, wouldn't it be a bad idea to premiere a huge name show like OPM when the ratings are lower than usual? We already saw last week's ratings take a bit of a hit, wouldn't it make sense to hold off until viewer ratings are closer to normal?

 

[Hellwarden]

Spider girls.

For the leg man in all of us.

I don't know if you can factor that into the decision-making process, which by the way probably took place months ago.

 

[ASSauLTxMasTER]

No JYB as Genos?

Spoiler

dropped.

The dub should be fineeeeeee.

Toonami panel in an hour or so. If OPM does replace Champloo, it's gonna be weird having it premiere at 1:30. That'd be 3 dub premieres though!

 

[UltraGunner]

They could always just push HxH back 30 minutes

Toonami panel isn't until 7:30pm PDT. There's an Aniplex panel before then though, if there's anyone interested in their catalog.

 

[Jarate]

Didnt metroid primerib say he was going to the panel?

Any chance you could periscope it if you get into it and have the internet powers to do it?

 

[Line_HTX]

Oh my God... have to wait until 9:30 for any announcements, and it's not streamed but will be up on Pre-Flight later on...
