He killed an army general in the 2nd episode singlehandely.

true but he at least occasionally loses or is outmatched.

 

[UltraGunner]

Warning, don't watch this ad while high.

OTA does nothing for me

 

[Zonic]

Oh god, I forgot about the live-action Jem movie. The fact it's by the Pitch Perfect people makes me not want to see it even more.

 

[Raxus]

Nah that's Michiko And Hatcin for me... sorry

That's just the fish in you talking.

 

[BatDan]

I hope next week brings new bumps.

 

[Gucci Messiah]

last episode was the child slavery ring right?

 

[Soulflarz]

hey the better show of the two!

 

[Htown]

yay time for michiko and hatchin!

 

[Hellwarden]

It baffles me that people consider Michiko and Hatchin worse than Akame Ga Kill.

You serious? Even at its worse, Michiko and Hatchin is better than Akame Ga Kill.

 

[Shard]

Well, time to shift to the wacky antics of Michiko and Hatchin.

 

[Regiruler]

What horrible things will happen this week

 

[LOLDSFAN]

I hope next week brings new bumps.

New Shippuden intro pls.

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Neat opening

 

[Black-Wind]

IIRC, the poor performance of the anime was a factor in (late series SPOILERS)

Spoiler

diverging from the manga for an anime-only ending in spite of having plenty more material to adapt

.

That can't be right ...

They would have to have known that the series was doing "poorly" as they were making the final arc. The series is only 24-25 episodes long, there's no way that can be the case unless they took a huge break halfway through to rework the final 5 episodes..

 

[Seda]

yay time for michiko and hatchin!

yay indeed

 

[ramoisdead]

Best character, best intro, best ending song of the Toonami block is on.

 

[Man God]

New Shippuden intro pls.

 

[BassForever]

I hate my fucking computer...

Okay, here's proof that the show is poor direction not actors.
The experience points guy was Chris Ayres. The voice of Freeza on Kai.
Sentai Filmworks needs new directors.

TBF Experience guy did a pretty good job with those lines, obviously it could have been better but it wasn't a terrible performance

 

[Imperial Bishop]

Ummm....dude, she's on the crapper.

 

[Seda]

demoted

 

[UltraGunner]

Don't visit the jungle. Ever

 

[Doctor Decimate]

that seems kinda hardcore for a test

 

[Mik317]

we still trippy mayne?

 

[Soulflarz]

;_;7

 

[Shard]

I see Instructor Femigata got reassigned to the Amazon.

 

[BatDan]

Did she just visit the fake surgeon?

Piggy!

 

[Raxus]

Inspector lady gets weird assignments to say the least.

 

[Regiruler]

Inspector episode?

 

[GaimeGuy]

Atsuko is not amused

 

[Zonic]

Hmmm, Atsuko focused episode this week?

 

[Crocodile]

This M&H episode is off to a weird start

IIRC, the poor performance of the anime was a factor in (late series SPOILERS)

There's also the Serial Rapist Squad later on that they probably wanted nothing to do with.

You could have censored around that concept easily, the bigger problem was the anime adaptation not doing well and the anime team wanting to give the series a "real ending" and not a "go read the manga" stop. Future content the series might have had if animated really wouldn't have much impact on going for a filler ending.

Considering how long it take to make anime and the lead times needed, I'm having a hard time believing this. This is not the sort of anime that would be doing gangbusters in ratings even if it was good and they aren't going to get data of disk sales or manga sales boosts until the show is well underway.

this next episode is actually pretty good

Yeah from my recollection I remember leaving that episode feeling kind of impressed. My memory could be off though and I'm sure the dub will do its best to botch it.

 

[LOLDSFAN]

Oink oink.

 

[ramoisdead]

Poor female Zenigata.

 

[Grexeno]

Transferred to Antarctica.

 

[UltraGunner]

Damn. That's some demotion

 

[SparksterMeta0]

She's fallen hard since then.

 

[Imperial Bishop]

They did my girl Atsuko dirty. Having her on clean up duty.

 

[the_sun_king]

Hmmm, Atsuko focused episode this week?

Spoiler

Yup.

 

[Man God]

Santa

 

[Shard]

I suppose we needed a focus episode on Astuko at some point.

 

[GaimeGuy]

Waaaaaalk.

In the rain.




In the rain.


In the rain.


I walk in the raaaaaain.


In the rain.


Is it riiiiiiiight?

Or is it wrong?


And is it here that I belong?

 

[Schadenfreude]

Seems Atsuko has been put on the Brazilian equivalent of meter maid duty.

 

[ramoisdead]

Atsuko was always the patsy then.

 

[LOLDSFAN]

She was bait? That's not nice.

 

[Doctor Decimate]

They look pretty much the same

 

[BatDan]

They used to be buds.
But now she went to the side of justice.

 

[Grexeno]

"I suppose I should describe my entire character arc."

 

[Shard]

Astuko came to the same conclusion we all did, Michiko is terrible.

 

[BassForever]

That can't be right ...

They would have to have known that the series was doing "poorly" as they were making the final arc. The series is only 24-25 episodes long, there's no way that can be the case unless they took a huge break halfway through to rework the final 5 episodes..

Miserable blu ray sales that happen early into a series can influence those kinds of things

It baffles me that people consider Michiko and Hatchin worse than Akame Ga Kill.

You serious? Even at its worse, Michiko and Hatchin is better than Akame Ga Kill.

Technically M&H is way better, animation, dub, directing, etc

I just don't like the characters and the story doesn't do anything for me. Personally I'd rather watch some dumb shonen shlock like AgK or Seraph over M&H. I'm only still watching M&H because it's on Toonami

 

[Man God]

Minico.
