Decent night overall. Kinda of a step down from recent weeks though. Later.

It was the Samurai Jack episode, wasn't it??

Ehh I don't mind Jack and Ashi hooking up. I wish it wasn't this rushed.

 

[Ray Down]

Welp back to Prey for now.

 

[Morlas]

a conjurer or what

 

[Grexeno]

Hey we're one third of the way through Hunter x Hunter

 

[Man God]

Hisoka intensifies.

 

[Imperial Bishop]

That entire back half of that episode was impressive as hell. Quick and clever brainwork and footwork FTW. Nobunaga has a lot of explaining to do when the others get back. Not sure how Gon & Killua are going to level up quick enough to take on the Phantom Troupe but I'm sure they will find some shonen bullshit way LOL

Oh ye of little faith.

Enhancer, but his power combines that along with manipulation and emission.

He's

an Enhancer.

You can access adjacent Nen types, just not as strongly as your primary one, remember.

 

[Imperial Bishop]

*five hours later*

Nobunaga is still searching for them with his En. 😂

 

[Htown]

great

i literally just slept through hunter x hunter

i hate tokyo ghoul

 

[Hellwarden]

I wouldn't be surprised if Jack finds out he can go back now, but he can't bring Ashi.

 

[cntr]

Gon's an idiot, but he's not an idiot in the sense that Naruto is an idiot.

Like breaking through the walls, that's simple and straight-forward, but it's genuinely not obvious, so it works.

 

[Grexeno]

Congratulations, you're just in time for Nyquil

 

[ramoisdead]

Gundam Unicorn time.

Wishing the OP song and Micott was in IBO. Mizazuki and Micott?? Aces.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

Oh ye of little faith.

Seriously, when has this show ever done the "shonen bullshit" thing lol.

You can say "Kurapika's ability" but:

1. It wasn't pulled out of his ass when we was getting a huge beatdown, which is the usual stupid shonen trope.

2. He had done a hell of a lot of research on the Troupe going into the fight.

3. The ability completely gelled with what we'd learn of Nen and contracts until that point. The only wild card was his eyes, and that was positioned as a surprise, but it kept the fight engaging at least (both seeming to have the upper hand at various points.)

 

[BBboy20]

Why this music had to be scored for this stupid story?

 

[Moaradin]

This show is the most white noise shit ever. Like, I'm watching this recap, and I legit can't recall any of this shit.

 

[ramoisdead]

great

Don't we all.

A nice tip: play a game or masturbate for 30 min. Do ANYTHING until it's time for HxH. Such a shame Tokyo Ghoul doesn't put me to sleep because I'm wide awake to witness that trainwreck.

 

[Grexeno]

Wait a minute who is bedridden Zeus again

 

[cntr]

You guys are still expecting shounen bullshit from HxH? Heh.

 

[Man God]

Santa?!?

Naruto burned them so many times that they can't let their guard down. lol

 

[ramoisdead]

Idk man. Idk. I wish it was put to better use.

 

[Man God]

Fuck Riddhe.

 

[cntr]

Naruto burned them so many times that they can't let their guard down. lol

Gonna be fun if MHA ever gets on the block, heh. It's a lot like HxH in how it sets up a shounen trope and then does something better.

 

[Hellwarden]

Fuck Riddhe.

 

[Grexeno]

Fuck Riddhe

 

[Moaradin]

Oh hey Sawano

 

[BBboy20]

Fuck Riddhe.

.

 

[cntr]

"Fuck Riddhe" is a meme in Gundam circles.

 

[Schadenfreude]

Wait, what's going on? Is this the opening

 

[B-Dubs]

I never noticed there was an OP before now. Is this new?

 

[ckohler]

Did I just see Shadow Clone no Gundam?

New OP?

 

[Crocodile]

Another new opening? How many episodes are left in this show? Nice song at least.

 

[Moaradin]

I never noticed there was an OP before now. Is this new?

The show always had an opening.

This is completely new though, and quite random lol.

 

[ramoisdead]

New OP??

I'm enjoying this a lot.

 

[Ultratech]

Better than stabbing yourself with knives.

 

[BBboy20]

Jesus, are they really giving blonde Sasuke such representation?

 

[Crimson_Echidna]

Full OP? Well ok then.

 

[Dr. Chaotix]

Wait what happened?

Music video?

What?

Huh?

 

[Grexeno]

I dunno what that was

 

[ramoisdead]

Wow I really like this OP over the first one.

At least Unicorn had the best OPs???

*shrugs*

 

[Hellwarden]

We should get My Hero Academia on Toonami.

Would be a fun group watch.

 

[cntr]

real talk, Unicorn's the best OST Sawano's done.

wish he put that much effort into his soundtracks

 

[ckohler]

Great opening. I can't fault the production quality of this show even if I tried. Too bad it's boring as F.

 

[Xe4]

Not a bad OP.

 

[ckohler]

We should get My Hero Academia on Toonami.

Would be a fun group watch.

Agreed. It looks great. Is hype. Has good music and it's fun. I REALLY hope we get it.

 

[BBboy20]

Hey, Hebert.

 

[ramoisdead]

I had to rewind my DVR to hear this OP.

It was really that good.

 

[Crocodile]

Oh shit a black guy!

I didn't mean to slight HxH. If I'm wrong I'm wrong - so be it. It may be excellent shonen but its still shonen, I'm allowed to be a bit skeptical
