Doesn't read OPs, especially not his own
Im in a troubled spot where I want to play around with my wii U some more (just now popped in NSMBU) but then I remembered I can do both at the same time.
High Fives all around then, lol.
LoL, would have been funny. I'd probably have to check the account a few times to make sure it was me, and then "Ohhhh! I GET IT!" LoL.
As one of the "Not in his 20s" members of ToonamiGAF, I feel this way sometimes, lol. "Back in my day....~!!"

So how many bleach fillers are left till the next real arc?
like 20
None. Next arc is filler/cannon. So you NEVER ESCAPE FILLER!
A miserable pile of non-canon.

i have been told the next Bleach arc is worse than this one
Usually filler tends to not follow the main plot threads/chapters in the manga in the story. It isn't such a bad thing sometimes. Heck a chunk of Cowboy Bebop was 'filler'.

Filler is life and life is filler.

So im guessing kayos is at work?

As original works neither Bebop nor GitS:SAC have filler. They do have episodes related to the main plot (5,12,13, 25,26 in the case of Bebop, Complex episodes in the case of SAC) but its not even close to the real filler experience.
Filler should rightly be labeled as "new to the anime version" content. It usually (but not always) is lower quality than the directly adapted source material but because the rules are relaxed sometimes the tonal shift can lead to some quite good comedy episodes. The single best episode of Naruto for example (101 of the original show) is a comedy episode.

I wonder if I would have made top posters in the last thread if I didn't fall asleep two weeks in a row from over exhaustion. :lol
Azure J reporting in!
Edit: I am also morbidly curious to find out how everyone has been doing with SAO, but more importantly, what's the thread's overall reaction to Best Piece and Based Eater?

Sad that I missed it, but at least I'll be here for the next saga of SAO mind crushing.
The thread reactions would be so great.
You mean 2 volumes

People have been enjoying One Piece so far. Lots of first timers that are genuinely interested in what's gonna happen next and lots of repeat viewers enjoying the first timer's reaction. As for SE, everyone keeps asking when the canon deviation will begin but people are enjoying the show anyways.
SE has been kinda dragging lately I'm sorry to say. One Piece is going as well as you'd expect.
Just had a revelation- I think tonight's episode of FLCL is the best episode of television of all time. The only other episode of a show I could even come up with on my short list was "To'hajiilee" from Breaking Bad, "College" from Soapranos, and the first episode of Lost. I am pretty sure this episode is better than those
I haven't been as excited for Soul Eater in this new arc, but it's still solid.
Medusa is a a pretty great villain.
I really wish there was another Soul Eater anime... one that covers the rest of the series.
I also wish the author would do a sequel, the manga ending was so unsatisfying.

Everyone talks about wanting another one done like Brotherhood, but has there been any actual talk of one or is just people hoping?
Schadenfreude
Member
Just people hoping. Do a lot of animes even get the Brotherhood treatment?
It's extremely uncommon.

Best female villain I can think of. Heck, she's one of the best villains regardless of gender.
Schadenfreude
Member
Right? She is truly evil.
The ones I can think of are:
Fullmetal Alchemist
Hunter X Hunter

Yeah, I'm out.
Bleach is in 2.5 hours

About 2 and a half hours.

3 hours.
I'll never stop asking for this honestly. A second anime wouldn't even need to start from the beginning if they were clever/JAPAN enough for it. I still liked the idea someone in an earlier thread proposed that the entirety of the last half of the OG anime was a fever dream due to the situation with the BREW's magnetic field during the battle for it. As for the latter:
I still feel like Ohkubo was setting up a second series with the way that ending played out. There was too much unaccounted for and given his track record up until that point, he doesn't strike me as an author just trying to cash in and "be out". I don't know if "Soul Eater Not!" is that next franchise, but it does look like the world of SE is still ripe for usage.
