[up] See, the entire conversation aside, nobody (Well, nobody sane) really cares what a character says or does. It's the writers and the message that is being sent that people critique. Watsonian and Doylist and all that.

Not really trying to say anything either way about Teamfourstar. Just think that needs to be understood because of... Issues elsewhere.

You are not alone.

Yeah, and the thing is, everyone could be right. No one means anything by it, but they imply it anyway, a subtle and unconscious Unfortunate Implications.

Because everyone sucks forever.

Yeah. "I didn't mean to hurt anyone" seems to convince a lot of people that nobody was actually hurt, and that's just bullshit.

And hey, not everything sucks. I can't hate a world that includes Fudge Crackle Ice Cream.

You are not alone.

Considering how good they are at making Hellsing funny despite being dark as hell, I have high hopes XD

Feels weird to have an abridged series of something not dubbed yet.

I'm aware that it might get a dub eventually. The weird thing is that the other Abridged Series I watch is all dubbed stuff. There's a base to compare it too, ya know? DBZA sounds like the cast of DBZ and that for me makes it even funnier.

The drill sergeant sounds kind of like Kronk.

Good lord, how did I get dragged into an argument with an SJW over whether or not TFS is sexist or not?

I figure they were mocking the Tumblrites that just spew memes and use rhetoric as ammo to win a fight and don't really believe it.

I'm curious as to what she's saying.

Speaking as someone who had been driven off of Tumblr due to the vitriol of a bunch of SJ Ws taking a side that I supported (and me being an obnoxious, intolerable asshole, but I didn't realize it at the time) shortly before the episode was put up, I found Rip Van Winkle's death far more satisfying than I probably should have. :P

but HOW?

Also, I'm curious about whether they'd find a way to do a joke about the implication of him eating the horses too.

...What's there to joke about? People eat horse all over the world. I cook a mean horse burger IRL (Leaner than beef). Most supermarkets sell horse meat here in Quebec. I don't really see how Alucard having eaten horses is somehow more joke-worthy than him having eaten people. What is the "implication" of him having eaten horse?

I guess one could call back to the horse meat scandal, but by the time they get to that episode, that'll be so old it'll be like beating a dead horse (Pun intended).

Here's the thing: Eating a horse is not something most people do in America and England (and probably Japan and other places). Here, it's not really looked down upon but is seen as really weird and perhaps uncivilized (that's just guess work on my part).

[up] Actually, Japan has a horse meat eating tradition.

And Alucard is neither American, or English at the time he'd have eaten horses. Admitedly I do not know the horse meat eating stance of medieval Romanians.

[up] Huh. I did not know that. Thank you for sharing that with me.

Anyway, yeah, that's true, but I'm assuming that... whoever it is you're quoting is. Also, having that knowledge would help you not seeing as how this is Alucard we're speaking about.

My point being, him eating horse oughta pale in comparison with "Bitch I eat people". Coz ya know. Cannibalism. Less widespread than horse meat eating, all things considered.
