Christ, this Tenchi Muyo GXP pile of shit is just atrocious.

Christ, this Tenchi Muyo GXP pile of shit is just atrocious.

It really is, it actually fucking hurts to watch it (though it might be that one furry character that seals it).

Music Video that's airing this weekend. Sneak preview from the tumblr

Christ, this Tenchi Muyo GXP pile of shit is just atrocious.

Agreed. The other 3 weren't all that great either, but good lord this is just an abomination.

[Insanecyclone]

[Insanecyclone]

Still some ways to go until the Aizen trolling begins. Bleach brings in the ratings even in the 8 week reruns.

[Corrderio]

So has there been any word what will happen to Sym-Bionic Titan after the final episode airs? Personally I'm hoping they show Megas as a replacement.

[Insanecyclone]

Megas has been written off years ago. CN nor AS cannot get it back.

[Corrderio]

Seriously? Damn it.

[Insanecyclone]

Seriously? Damn it.

Yeah. They were asked that multiple times on their tumblr about it. IGPX and Megas are two shows that are gone for good. No one knows who has both licenses so it'll be impossible to get the rights.

It's fucked up tbh.

[Corrderio]

Yeah, pretty fucked up CN lost (or can't show) their on property.

[Insanecyclone]

Ah well.

I'm really wanting Heroic Age and Blassreiter on Toonami now.

[Corrderio]

Haven't seen those, bur for more changes I'm hoping they'll get rid of Family Guy, KoTH, Cleveland Show, and the other regular Adult Swim comedies and make Toonami an entire Saturday night thing. Maybe also start it with an earlier time slot with censored shows.

Speaking of censored, has there been any significant differences between the "uncensored" Naruto and the one CN showed a few years back? So far I have no clue what the hell they mean when they say Naruto is uncensored. When I heard Sauske still saying "destroy" instead of "kill" it was just... urgh.

Some scenes that were edited were put back in the uncut from what i've seen, only one i've seen a major difference between their "uncut" and edited is episode 3 where the uncut shows sasuke and naruto kissing and naruto in the bathroom instead of the edited version just showing the outside of the bathroom only and just shows the girls reaction only to naruto kissing sasuke.

[Corrderio]

Ah right. I knew that bathroom bit was. I was just hoping they'd redub the earlier arcs as well like how there were 2 dubs of Gundam Wing.

[Insanecyclone]

Them getting an hour early to start would probably take some time. Not an over night thing. Funimation was over the #ExpandToonami thing yesterday too.

[arus2001]

There's other little insignificant shit too like the 3rd's nosebleed reaction to the sexy jutsu, I think. Basically just one of those cases of purists getting super uppity about the evil NA contaminating the sacred. General points still get conveyed, so s'all good, far as I'm concerned.

As for dumping the comedies and starting the block earlier, I doubt that'll happen. Much as I'd love it to, money's an issue for them and I suspect they've got rights for those shows to basically air as often as they wish for whatever duration. There's a part of me that misses the primary block repeating at 4am, too, as sometimes I miss the first hour or so.

And while it's been a bit since I watched Heroic Age, I don't think it's a good fit for the block. While it had action at points, it wasn't particularly memorable. Sadly, Netflix is also a bit of their worst enemy when it comes to show availability, as it's likely whatever they get had been on there, nevermind people pirating prior to dubs. Still think they should push for Fate/Zero, but that may be a money issue.

A: We’re working on adding more CGI, so it’s a distant future possibility, but right now, sorry, no.

Speaking of censored, has there been any significant differences between the "uncensored" Naruto and the one CN showed a few years back? So far I have no clue what the hell they mean when they say Naruto is uncensored. When I heard Sauske still saying "destroy" instead of "kill" it was just... urgh.

One particular thing I noticed was a scene where Naruto took a bunch of shurikens (thrown by I think Leaf ANBU Black Ops?) in the back when blocking some guy that he thought wasn't really an enemy. I can't remember where in the series it was, but anyways in the censored version, he just falls down with no visible injuries. He is later seen in the hospital with bandages that don't really make sense unless you had seen what really happened.
