Toonami |Mar15| the smartest anime is back!

Ludicrously bad and entertaining is much more enjoyable than frustratingly bad and sluggish.
As I've mentioned a bunch I follow the odd anime trends on Netflix.
So FMA:B is one of the real odd balls on there, it's been on the service for years now but they've never added the fifth and final season. I think it's because they hate the final opening as much as I do. Anyways right around the same time TOONAMI lost the rights to it Netflix did as well. It showed up again a few weeks later, still oddly enough four seasons.
HOWEVER the quality of the show's stream has improved significantly as I found out a few minutes ago watching the various openings. It looks spectacular. I'm pretty sure the show was always HD so I have no clue why this transfer is so much better.

Or more likely Funimation wants you to buy it physically.
That makes sense in the immediate period (it's also likely why UK Netflix has BOTH SEASONS OF SPACE DANDY and we got nothing because they haven't sold the Discs yet) but it's literally been years and has been renewed.
The other odd ball one they had was only putting up one season of Spice and Wolf at a time.
That's probably it, the series is on sale so often that it's easily worth it if you're a fan of the show. I think I averaged like a dollar an episode when I got my set.
Hulu's got all of Spice and Wolf so I don't mind that too much. I want a new season though, someone needs to make that happen. Also make the novels e-books already.
FMA is probably an evergreen title that Funimation always wants to promote physically.
This.
If it wasn't for you guys I wouldn't laugh at SAO. Look, it's not the best written, but the show isn't complete shit. As a whole, don't people like SAO? Theres a reason it's wildly popular
R-right?

Make sure you don't have a firearm or have any pointy things in the house, kay?
I'd love to read Htown's reactions to some of the episodes
I wouldn't expect anything along the lines of a review for each one
maybe a few sentences
It really is an art form to stuff EVERYTHING people hate about anime in one anime.
News that SAO II is more boring is not good news. I want a good hate watch of a bad show and that was going to be SAO II for me this year.
You and me both. It's been far too long since the last season came out.

We interrupt this SAO discussion to bring you some great Avengers action.

Space Dandy: The Card Game on Kickstarter
If you donate $90, you get a bundle which includes stuff like a Boobies Point Card, like the one that Dandy had to use before it expired.

the fuck are you even doing hawkeye
the bad guys are down there
He's shooting at the bad guys father away of course.
Hmm...curious how balanced this game is in comparison to something like Ascension, which it seems this game heavily borrows from. The $100 option seems okay since you get Season 1 with it as well, which I don't currently own.
I went ahead and asked about the $100 one. Im curious if you get the bluray now or in September when the card game ships.

Not sure how I feel about this.
Watched the gameplay vid too. There are a few other systems in play similar like defending yourself from others and registering aliens for points that might make this a bit more interesting outside of just the Dandy premise. I'd love to get my hands on it just to get a feel for the game and try it out.
That's actually a good point as well. They might just ship it with the game in September to cut back on shipping costs, but we don't know that for sure.

Just got an answer
"We will be shipping Space Dandy: Season One separately within 30 days of the end of the campaign."
Encore One Piece at 8:30 east as an experiment

Shippuden gets numbers as it is, and it's already getting the rub from DBZ and KLK where it is. One Piece is later in the night when the audience has already ground down due to attrition. It could use the boost of getting an earlier slot and DBZ bump to promote it, which could in turn bring up Gurren Lagann and DMW.

That seems plausible.
It kind of makes some sense to have the first premiere (Kai) and the last premiere (One Piece) rerunning that early.

Well that's exciting, I doubt I'll ever check out these encore performances but it's nice to have them for these long running shows in case people miss the previous weeks showing.
The Krillin/Luffy one is particularly designed to fuck with your head.
Bahaha yeah.
Sadly it won't work here, unless it was Krillin/Usopp
Now that Piccolo/Zoro commercial... hehehehehehe
