The Toonami Thread

When this was explained to me last night all I was told was that one of them was the Elrics' alchemy teacher. No one ever specified which was which. She said she was just a housewife and an alchemist so I assumed the teacher was the dude.

Trying something new with the vlog this time. Either it'll make the video too cluttered or it'll be a tremendous help.

I'm pretty sure last night I said "That's Ed and Al's alchemy teacher and her husband."

Is it weird if Marechiyo on Bleach kind of reminds me of Yajirobe from Dragon Ball as a sort of Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass? Soi Fon's near-constant stream of abuses towards him me, though. He's also kinda like the Dan Hibiki of Bleach.

It's interesting to see some of the malaise towards S7 on here, because I remembered the show being very average when I originally saw it on IFC back in the day, before they became the glorified The Shining Network.

The new Luna is evil. She seems to enjoy peoples' suffering, as demonstrated when she watched Leda suffer after "healing" her for the second time. Maybe she was Evil All Along. She creeps me out.

So on Eureka Seven, Talho and Holland are basically Riza Hawkeye and Roy Mustang from Fullmetal Alchemist?

You honestly don't remember the Elrics' time in the Briggs brig, flashing back to what she said and calling her "Teacher"? XP

Pretty much. But the two of them are less mature than Roy and Riza right now.

I haven't been watching Toonami for a while and am thinking of getting back into the swing of things. I guess it has been 5-7 weeks. Anything chance in Casshern Sins? How is Eureka 7?

Didn't miss too much in Casshern last week except that Ohji Took a Level in Jerkass and sent Casshern to bring himself to near death (which he doesn't get anyway in the next ep, SO WHAT WAS THE POINT?!). This week, Leda smacked Luna for being a bitch, but she killed her in return when she asked for immortality. And we're getting our last Casshern/Dio showdown next week.

YAAAAAAAAAAY!

@Pika, I think the point was showing that Casshern just can't understand them because he's so different, no matter what he does. Least that's my interpretation of it.

Whatever, show is almost over, so happy!

I thought the point was that he couldn't understand pain because he was immortal, which makes no sense on any level except maybe some kind of metaphor that went way over my head, except that Casshern himself also seemed to take it literally.

Physical pain? Successfully disproven considering how much pain he looked to be in this week.

Emotional pain? He's spent the entire series neck-deep in angst.

It was the fear of death. The episode of last week kind of prove that no matter what Casshern will not die even if he wanted to.

That would make sense if they'd actually said "fear of death" and not "pain," I guess.

The wording is strange I admit that.

Maybe he could find a volcano to go jump into?

I believe they mean by pain as in "the pain which comes from fearing death."

...WHY THE HELL AM I DEFENDING CASSHERN?!

Because nobody else would.

Because he's a classic icon in japan, both Modern and the original.

TOM will review the old 1980's game Fix-It Felix, Jr. this Saturday.

...You're being sarcastic, right?

No, I mean about Fix-it Felix Jr. being an "old 1980's game".

Yes, he/she is most likely using sarcasm.
