[/quote] we should not bombard them everyone makes a fair and reasonable list 10 - 30 noting some are not owned by cn and unfortunately never will ps you should confirm with at least 5 others on each others list to reduce multiple copies on the list ps do research find some new anime find at least 3 new anime to put on your list do not put common choices like bleach / fma or stuff they allready showing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tentacruel Posted May 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2012 [quote name='Flame Dragon' timestamp='1337960162' post='5946701'] I can understand the pirating to some degree. Fairy Tail for example only has like 50 episodes available for official viewing so people are going to pirate the rest. Naruto isn't that excuable since, while it is a week, a week is hardly any time so, again, support the official martial. The one that bugs the hell out of me though is that people pirate something like One Piece that releases online HOURS after it airs in Japan. No, your being stupid and DIRECTLY refusing to support the people that are making it. Hell, the same can be said for those that don't watch the official backlogs for any anime. [/quote] Well, yeah, that would be what annoys me too. Especially when people try to use lame excuses like saying fansubs are better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your reading it so if you want to see Zoro, read it as Zoro. And hell, unlike fansubs the official stuff is more likely to be accurate since, you know, people get paid to do this. IE: The have incentive to not half ass it. Dear lord people are dumb. Anyway, tonight should be a good night. Lets just hope waking up at 8 won't make it hard for me to stay awake.

And don't get me started on all the words that remain untranslated for no reason. OT: I really wish I had cable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flame Dragon Posted May 27, 2012 Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 Deadman Wonderland was.....strange. It is interesting, but I honestly don't know what to really think of it. Casshern Sins was cool. A lot more basic, but with an extra order of post-apocalypse. Side from that over all it is just Adult Swim given the Toonami label. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shradow Posted May 27, 2012 Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 I can't wait for more Deadman and Casshern. I think Deadman will become a favorite of mine, I have a good feeling about it. When that cart boy voiced by Aaron Dismuke got cut, my first thoughts were (jokingly), "Great, Aaron's been in an anime for 2 minutes and he's already dead. Will he ever get another major role?"

Blake Posted May 27, 2012 Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 Deadman was... Disturbing, to say the least, but I like the power concept after reading up on it a bit. Cashern reminds me of Megaman for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Crouton Posted May 27, 2012 Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 This opening night is real crap. It's just the same shows, plus Casshan (which can be watched on Funimation's Youtube channel along with tons of other anime) and that one I don't care about, with Toonami CGI scenes. Wow! My childhood has been revived with the same shows that come on every Saturday! This is like how TNA Wrestling changed their name to Impact Wrestling. It's still TNA Wrestling. Apparently, they're trying to get Gundam Wing. Guess what? Bandai uploaded the ENTIRE series, along with 00, Zeta, and the original, which was also on Toonami in 2001-02, on Youtube. My point? In the age of convenient video sharing sites that companies use to give us Gundam, Voltron, and Robotech, all of which aired on the original Toonami, I think it's safe to quote the greatest shonen manga hero as I direct this message to the revived Toonami: "You're already dead".

Shradow Posted May 27, 2012 Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 And people like you are the ones who will kill it. They've got a low budget, two new shows were all they could get. If you don't like it just leave the tv on and get out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shradow Posted May 27, 2012 Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 Yeah, I know DW ends partway through the manga. Is the anime different enough from the manga I'd have to start over or can I continue where the anime leaves off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Roxas Posted May 27, 2012 Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 I'm at Fanime and forgot to record Deadman Wonderland or Casshern Sins. I'll try and look for the first episodes to see if I they're worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
