It's the only one I remember. Do you have others for me to use in the future?

Some next gen jrapics there.
I always found it strange that some people would complain about the fact HSotD had "too much fanservice" when I recall a decent amount of horror films would add some kind of sleaze/sexiness/nudity/"hey, let's make out & hope the killer doesn't appear soon"/etc. to their film to take a break from the scary stuff. Granted, not ALL of them, but still. Not to mention the only real nudity that I can really remember was from the episode with the bathing. Other than that, it never got past partial nudity.
This hand of mine glows with an awesome POOOWWEEERR! Its burning grip TELLS ME TO DEFEAT YOU!
It's not really about the amount of nipples you see, it's more about general treatment and direction

this is why that show is awesome. i'm sure there's somebody out here who finds that sexy somehow, but to the rest of us it's goddamn hilarious.
I watched Hamtaro. It was enjoyable, if mindless entertainment.
...What the hell is wrong with you?
While I was a bit out of the age range for it Hamtaro did quite well with the younger set. I remember baby sitting my cousins around the time Hamtaro was out and they went nuts for it. It's well animated and cute and isn't dumbed down too much like some kids shows but it also didn't really fit in the block even as they were trying to lower the age of those watching it.
Would have worked better in the younger set block they used to replace Toonami.

Finally saw the dubbed version of SAO episode 3... I thought they did an excellent job dubbing a not so excellent episode. I forgot how frustrating it was having every major fight skipped :/ there are so many good premises for good story telling ideas presented just not executed well at all.
Still Art Online?

I'm not sure what you mean by this :kayos
I feel a still joke would work better for Attack on Titan, I can't think of any times SAO has still images with voices over them.
That'll be great too, but if T-Gaf reacted the way I did to episode 22
they'll be rolling on the floor laughing

it's also a shame the movies have garbage CGI and don't actually cover much material beyond the series.

So I'm thinking this will be the last toonami sesh for OT5, right? We average ~2000 posts per Saturday night and are already pushing 17.5K total.
Yep. This thread's got one more week in it and we're moving on out. It's too bad, this one's really comfortable. I always hate having to break in a new thread and don't get me started on that new thread smell.

Supersonic, idiotic, disconnecting, not respecting, who would really ever wanna go and top that
Highschool of the Dead is my litmus test for trusting someone's opinion. If they recommend it to me, I never listen to them again. Different strokes for different folks, but it's literally one of the worst shows I've personally ever watched. I gave it three episodes too. But if someone tells me I should watch it, I know that our tastes in entertainment are radically different.
Berserk...ah, an anime that is near to my heart but I won't watch it again because I know it doesn't hold up. The manga is spectacular. I have the recent Golden Age movies...haven't watched them. I have a sickness where I buy anime but don't watch it. I've heard mix impressions though. Being a Berserk fan is rough. You have to come to terms with the fact that the series being fully animated is unlikely, and the manga is probably never going to actually be finished.
It wouldn't shock me if after EVA, the next set of movie nights were The Golden Age arc of Berserk. I'd put money on either that or a Bleach film since they've done it in the past. Be interesting if they did something like showed Hellsing Ultimate. I think that would get a pretty cool reaction out of some people. I loved Hellsing back around 2004ish, but going back to it now...yeah, doesn't hold up for me at all. Even the Ultimate anime, there is a lot of stalling bullshit. Characters making long dramatic speeches, essentially repeating themselves over and over again. Dark faces where you can only see their glasses, the entire thing just starts to fall in on itself. It's one of the only shows where I loved it before, but am indifferent about it now.

I'm hoping we get Tiger and Bunny. It'd be right up Toonami's alley.
I'm with you on both those movies, either one would be great.
That Pentamillion brought a small tear and a tiny smirk on this face full of pain and loss.
Now folks, Turner has a conundrum. The block is as big of a hit as Adult Swim. But right now - the best case its to stick to AS. But its becoming apparent that Toonami is a bit of force right now with no budget. Do they take a risk and give it funding? Nothing much else in Turner is working right now outside of AS and Toonami. Warners has stepped in in TNT's side while Turner is trying to keep Fox Happy on TBS. Who knows what will happen...
But I know this. Crunchyroll - just like Netflix and Amazon Prime (all for different reasons of course) arnt long for this planet.

What is it with you and Crunchyroll? Somebody there got dirt on you or something? Can't think of any other reason that you keep bringing them up at every possible opportunity, even when its unrelated to the topic at hand.

i think the fact that they went through an entire redesign with new CGI means they got a bigger budget already.
Yeah huh, interesting.
