Remember when I told everyone that Ninja Slayer looks more like a weird sort of project like Panty & Stocking or Inferno Cop rather than an actual TV series?
No, but that's mostly because I don't really take in anything you say.

Maybe it's too gorey/nudity to air on TV.
I honestly don't know why it's not airing on TV especially considering each episode is still half an hour.
April 16th which might imply Trigger's production schedule is still shit.
Many options really.
Spring season looks really crowded and half the air dates haven't even been announced. Could be avoiding that.
Or maybe fans of the source material are cable cutters and this is a better way to reach them.
Or king records couldn't pony up the cash for a decent time slot, but I doubt this
Or it's an experiment.

Funimation is great on phone and my kindle (and its actually in HD). Website is also good for me too now that they did a recent upgrade this season.
Half of those are good anime. I had no problrm.
i agree, cross ange is great
Or maybe they have no money to buy broadcast time until after they sell the series digitally first.

How much would it cost to air it on some channel like ATX anyway?

The only anime I need is Gintama. Pretty much the only show that will satisfy my needs.
April can't come any faster.
Is that another show saitom, Serere Inato and Shinjiro are working on?

Really? Aiba? Aila? Aina? Aida? WHEN DOES IT END GUNDAM
Really great fight, actual tactics being used! Lucas plan was kinda shit but Crossbone is so based it makes me sad he lost
This had better be good.

Those duels were all leading up to... something. I don't know who that guy is, or what unsealing him would mean, but I'm curious to find out.

Is watching this before seeing anything from the main series the wrong order? Yes. Almost certainly yes. But I did it anyway. In the grand tradition that Exodus and Aerial Girls are carrying on today, one of the first shows-within-a-shows I'd heard of, simultaneously mocking, commenting and basking in the admiration of the circumstances that created it in the first place. I haven't seen a ton of 70s robot anime, but I can appreciate what it was doing here. In a lot of ways, it reminded me of what the Go-Busters Returns V-Cinema did for Sentai of the same era.
Starting tomorrow:
(Not the movies, but the three series leading up to them. This Amazon release linked them in my mind - all three movies have the same producer, so I'm going to watch all of their anime at the same time.)

Well it's probably not worth going exclusively for niche anime-only cable networks like AT-X or Animax if you're going to have a TV run.

Last time I used the website it was showing a Hulu stream, this is so much better. Think I'll pay the $60 a year as long as it keeps working this well for my free month.

I thought for free users it was always the hulu stream. I had been paying since it was introduced so I always had their own videoplayer.

A rock and roll show in the midst of exploding rocket/firework and cannon fire. Can't get anymore hardcore than this! Rainbow explosion! Shamisen and guitar duet! Rickshaw rocket!

I knew Gundam X was going to suck once it turned into a MOTW.
I tried to enjoy it. I really tried. But uuuuugggggghhhh the Frost Brothers are terrible.
KanColle 09
So remoldeing is a mixture of growing up and powering up - and it's permanent. The new Yuudachi is a bit of a departure from the old one. I like her, and hope for as much of the cast as possible to power up before the show finishes. (Mostly Naka, so Ayaneru can sing as she fights.) Fubuki's crisis of confidence was handled well enough, and I look forward to seeing her remodel, too. It probably won't be as cool as Tail Red's final form, but it can come close.
Testament 09
Yuki's strong point is her butt, got it. That's going to write so many doujins. The truth about what Maria has been in the show for is revealed, and for as much as the show has been erotic from the start, the most actively erotic character turns out to be
I'm... not sure how I feel about that.

This show really loves to hit the viewer over the head with its message. As cliche as his motivations may have been, the twist with Hirokawa was pretty nice. Not sure how
The sudden upgrade on the love front was a bit jarring but okay. Alright ep though I'm not sure what they're going to do with 3 (5?) episodes left. It feels like the Gotou confrontation could be finished in just 20 minutes with ease.

he even found out and introduced himself without being eaten. Unless he was the one who invented the Parasytes or something, which I don't think was implied to be the case.

[Gundam Build Fighters Try] - 21
Dear God I knew the fight was going to be shitty once I saw what Lucas was doing, I couldn't have guessed how bad it would be. Yikes.
- The animation was pretty poor for a fight this late into the show. Really, really disappointing.
- All the characters in this show are paper thin, regardless of how much or how little time we spend with them. The scene where all the teams 'challenged' each other in stadium really highlighted how flat and lifeless they all were. The dialogue during that scene was atrocious.
- On that same theme, the Gunpla Academy are pretty boring themselves, so watching them fight a character whose is solely defined by a line of dialogue spoken last season makes for a fight I can't care about. Remember, that's Lucas' entire reason for being a fighter - one remark by one character last season.

Remember, that's Lucas' entire reason for being a fighter - one remark by one character last season.
- Lucas Nemesis has been hyped up for ages as 'serious shit' but he wasn't really a contender. What was the point of the stupid stuff at the end of last episode where Sekai 'feels his power' if only leads to this outcome? He didn't take out a single Gunpla during his battle. It would have been far more interesting if Lucas was truly a better builder and fighter than the Gunpla Academy and all three of them had to work together to take him out and they only just managed to pull it off. Instead they barely broke a sweat.
- We've had two parters for far shittier fights than this, so the pacing in this show is really bizarre considering that surely this fight is more important.
- You know that Lucas can't beat the Gunpla Academy because stories don't work that way but it was fun to entertain that hope. You could watch the fight thinking "Maybe...just maybe..." However the second you see Lucas pull out teammates that are clearly non-characters it becomes certain that victory is impossible because you know he can't beat them 3 on 1. This robs the fight of any sliver of tension it could have had.
- Even though he's clearly a good builder and fighter his big strategy is to siphon of his team's Gunpla. This is pretty lame on a strategic level. His actual tactics during the fight are far more interesting and creative at least.

Gaiking: Legend of Daiku Maryu - 17
So a new guy named Dick shows up and joins the crew. Turns out he's kind of a dick too.
And he's got a mecha jaguar. So yeah, that's pretty cool.
I have to say, I'm a little iffy on the way they introduced this guy. I don't remember the show building him up in any way. Like, the crew just goes to this city where he lives and are looking to re-hire the guy. Yeah, he also has a bit of a history with the crew as well that they also bring up. Yeah, I don't remember the characters even remotely hinting at this guy before, it just sort of comes out of nowhere.
Not really a deal-breaker, it just feels a bit off, is all.

So the Proist guy I thought was a robot is actually the demon succubus daughter of the Darius Emperor! Okay, I knew something was off about Proist but I don't think I could have ever predicted that being the case about him!

Nouza is....WHAT?!? Okay, so the reason Proist was inflicting pain on Nouza was because he exists as one of many manufactured clones to serve as her demon succubus body should something happen to her.
Holy. Crap.

Jarmel, Xam'd didn't look "just as good" - it looked pretty god amazing. The first two episodes, especially, where basically at "movie level".
Yea I'm not going to disagree. Visually the show as a whole is one of the better looking TV series in existence.

There are plenty of unerotic butts.
I just checked out the opening for Xam'd, as I usally do to get the jist of a show and I remembered the song instantly even-though I had seen the opening all but one time years ago so there's that. The show doesn't look all that great tho visually imo (cue people posting a million gifs)
Beauty is the in the pants of the beholder...or something.
Speaking of Bones shows that have bad reputations but contain good animation. Is Heroman that good looking enough to warrant it appearing in the sakuga list spreadsheet?
But are butts from old anime more erotic than new anime?
What people are referring to is primarily animation. You might have heard of this term from time to time.
