I don't think that's coming back, though.

Oh my god yes! I would love that so much. Especially if we could make it to the Sasuke retrieval arc. I know itll never happen though.

If they're going to pay to get another long running Viz show it's gonna be Sailor Moon Uncut lets be real here
Did you sincerely expect Toonami to be getting a new premiere show then?

To be fair they were airing Hellsing Ultimate from 3AM-4AM for awhile
You're asking why do I want to see an anime that's been shown 4 times in one year compared to something I haven't seen before?
I... can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not.
Yes that or cutting the time after Deadman was done.
To be fair this will be the fourth time for the first what, six episodes? How many did Titan go at 11:30?
It's the initial airing, the marathon, the 11:30 rerun era, and now this.
Space Dandy actually has a similar track record for the first season and its first few episodes.

Personally I was hoping for a rerun of something that hasn't aired in awhile like Casshern
I'd also be cool with Bleach cause that's always dumb fun
so I can have an excuse to watch it without making time for it
Interesting. Hopefully it still brings ratings but I kinda doubt it.
I doubt anybody wants to watch AoT again, but as mentioned they likely don't have the rights much longer (until May? that would be one year) so the decision is to have it fill space while it can.
I wonder if Final Act will be replaced by Sailor Moon. They already said they were looking into Crystal instead of the new dub of classic though.
A) Parasyte is the type of show that might do well on Toonami but like many shows that have ended up on the block recently, it isn't actually very good.
B) Where does one watch this Toonami Pre-Show? Are there archives?
Though I can understand why

Hmm seems weird for them to start airing something they will deliberately have to pull in 2-3 months, maybe if they start with the second half of the series.

I'll try to let you guys know what episode AoT will start on..............tomorrow.
Sword Art Online episode 5
Seriously?
Okay, number one, if the murderer is after people because of the guild leader's death, wouldn't they be murdering the people who wanted her to sell the item (and therefore got her killed) instead of the people who didn't want her to sell the item? Like, what's the point of killing people who lost a vote? Nothing they wanted to happen happened.
Second, Kirito dismisses the idea that an item or ability allows for PKing in a safe zone because the game is fundamentally fair, when just last episode he went on and on about how MMOs are inherently unfair and that's how come the ambush couldn't beat him.
Third, I thought this was an action show. We gonna get any fights in here at any point?
As a matter of fact, it looks like people are almost 2/3 of the way through the floors, are we going to get back to the main plot of finishing the game so people don't have to die in this virtual world at some point? This stuff still feels like filler.
Fourth, the fanservice. This girl seems really distraught and broken up about her friend's death, so what we need to do is linger on this ass shot for a while, apparently. Like, there's not even anything "sexy" going on in the show, it's just like the camera work is being done by a perv for no reason.
I've gone on record as saying the fanservice in Kill la Kill is too much, but somehow this kinda feels more creepy even though it's way way WAY less extreme.

Dunno if you saw my post or not but your questions about this stuff being filler is explained here
I mean, at least SAO isn't boring to group-watch.
Holding out until Shikuden is going to be hard times, daddy.
OH SHIT! I forgot that I get to make Wall Cena jokes again! THE CHAMP IS HERE!
oh okay cool
in that case it feels like the main story skips ahead too much
I mean they're on floor 57 or something out of 100. it took like a month to clear the first floor, but I guess after that everything was just trivial?
SAO is bad but it is entertainingly bad. Shippuden at its worst is boringly bad. When you watch tons of B movies you quickly learn to tell the difference.
Speaking of boring how did Shippuden manage to make the 2nd Chunin exam filler and proceed to

make it so boring after the test. Jeez. Hype killed here.
Bleh, AoT replacing DMWL. Guess I'm going to bed after One Piece.
Also was tempted to rent that live-action Kite film when I was at Family Video, but passed on it. I'm still confused as to why it exists, especially by an American film direct. And the fact they got SAMUEL JACKSON to be in it. I don't even think it was shown at my theater.

Considering how good most Shippuden filler is and that they've got an area where you could do something legitimately interesting it is very disappointing to hear they dropped the ball on it.
New plan for tonight as I'm still pretty messed up from this cold.
Take a shower. Grab something to eat. Start watching the 40 something episodes of One Piece needed to catch up. Should be able to finish those before my Crunchyroll trial is up.
Long term plans
Might get a month or two and watch all of RK/Cardcaptor/DRRR! dubbed while I play MH4U and Majora's Mask.
Also a friend lent me something...I should take advantage of. Before a certain show returns for its second season. In Gif Form.

You've already fastforwarded like two years in the timeline. SAO has random, fast, completely irrelevant and unheralded time skips out the ass particularly early on in the series.
I am really a big fan of all the Crunchyroll apps I've used.
Wii U has gigantic subtitles for some reason. Great considering my glasses are messed up and my new ones aren't ready yet. Had no problem with HxH.
Also they know their audience by not chopping off the openings/endings ala Netflix does when you binge watch a show. Just a five second timer between episodes.
Normally when I catch up on One Piece I just use the Hulu feed on onepieceofficial.com but since I got the trial anyways to finish off HxH I figure I might as well go commercial free.

I split my time between PS3 and Wii U. Wii U has great use of both screens but the interface isn't quite as smooth as PS3.
I guess I should watch Jojo as well. I could probably knock that out before the trial ends as well.
They're all pretty much ghosts...in the shell.

Didn't even notice Demarco tweet about it before the Pre-Flight, but AoT will start from the beginning upon returning.
Also, I might be late on this, but Aniplex goes that extra mile....I swear.

Yay!
That was cute.
Fun Man God Fact: I don't really like the ending to 2nd Gig...at all. I was however going to do a short review of ALL OF THE TACHIKOMATIC DAYS the week after it ended as to avoid possible spoilers. Nope.
I still plan on doing the rest of Naruto Uncut, just waiting for the right day. I might need to take some time off soon for a little back surgery and that would be perfect to start up something like this.
