Togusa is like the worst undercover operative.

"Greetings, fellow employees. Have you heard anything with regards to this Chief? Just a casual question, act natural."

Oh damn, good point, I just figured they reused the voice since it fit the kid. & he was "forced" off the computer in the chatroom episode as well, which they mentioned some kids would get so engrossed, they'd have to be forced off the net.

One of these days, I'll see Your Name with my friend. Of course, despite being the highest-grossing anime film ever now, our theater didn't get it (nor did they get the recent RiffTrax despite having them previously for a few years now, which was annoying), but hoping it'll hit Netflix or something so we can watch it....& then be free to let the tears flow instead of having to deal with walking out of a theater to then try to drive home in our current mental state due to the emotional punch I'm sure the film would deliver.

Also, this episode had a bunch of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest references, like Togusa fighting and being knocked out by "Nurse Ratched" and her assistant, obviously. But I especially like how the Laughing Man "pretends to be a deaf mute", the same as Cuckoo's main character...when the quote from Catcher in the Rye is meant as a metaphor for the main character wanting to save children. Which is what the Laughing Man also does.

It's double reference, both literal and abstract. Clever.

We get a couple fun in between episodes of Super now, on episode 19 the F arc starts, the first couple episodes are okay, though some meh stuff happens, animation takes a huge nosedive in episode 24, episode 25 is a mix of good and bad and 26 is mostly bad. Animation picks up in the final episode, 27, but art is still kinda iffy, then Super's first original arc starts in episode 28. The action in the first original arc starts out not so great, but it's all up hill from there. The 5th main arc (that's counting the Battle of Gods and F arcs) is when things really kick into gear with the animation, though there is some nice stuff in the 3rd and 4th arcs, more so in the 4th arc.

There's kinda some cute stuff. That's probably not his favorite scene though.

I wanna go there =o=

Edit: Holy cannelloni! I'm a 'Member' now :eek:

Heh..."Doing Togashi's work" or "Filling the Togashi void" mayhap would be a fun subtitle. But, I think I'd like to have something else rather

Dragonball Super isn't bad it's just early DBS was garbage rehashing of a better movies with slower pacing and worse animation. It gets better after Rz of F.

Pretty sure he can ohko feitan. Chrollo is probably his only hard match up 1 on 1

The pact for powers comes back into play in a big way (even as a joke). It is a nice wrinkle in the Nen system that helps balance things out.

Something tells me Bonolenov would be a bit of a pain in the ass as well. I don't think Feitan is exactly weak either, his Nen ability is fucking crazy.

Fighting
Chrollo
requires way too much on the spot thinking.

I have hard time thinking that
considering his insane speed and nen ability if Kurapika doesn't deal with him quickly enough
