Man I can't believe it has taken me this long to try Anime Lab for Super episodes. They actually come out faster than the shitty speed subs, and the player is way more reliable than Crunchy Roll or pirated subs.

Good job, Anime Lab.

17 went full Majin Vegeta on us. Only it worked this time. Jiren didn't get penalized because 17 did it to himself.

What the fuck.

In other news, Jiren is officially more Batman than Superman.

That's just fucking BS. Then Jiren can just kill everyone and be immune from disqualification because they did it to themselves by fighting against him.

Edit: Just rewatched it closer. Apparently he self-destructed?

Wow. That's pretty nuts. Then again, they used the same logic for when Goku seemingly died to the Spirit Bomb.

But he's for real dead? Like truly most sincerely dead.

Wait, didn't they already rule that Jiren wouldn't be eliminated from Goku dying from the Spirit Bomb because it was his own attack? This isn't new.

Now I'm wondering why Jiren doesn't just wait for everyone to kill themselves trying to beat him.

About Devil Artemis, I'm still impressed that he made a 4 part battle about the Ugandan Knuckles meme.

Honestly I can't blame him, each of those videos has over a million views & he did state it was a cancerous meme while it lasted.

Devil Artemis is hit and miss. He is pretty talented in his voice acting, but some of his videos are kinda boring. The Rick and Morty and Chichi weren't funny.

I miss his Perfect Cell hilariously recaps the TOP.

Yeah, I think Devil Artemis' videos are kind of boring. Don't like the Ugandan Knuckles meme because it's little more than racist jokes, and while his voice for Cell is good the dialogue is so ill-fitting.

I don't have anything against Devil Artemis. I just haven't seen any of his videos except for the (apparently racist) Ugandan Knuckles one.

#78070: Feb 10th 2018 at 5:32:46 PM

It's not that his videos are racist, the whole meme of Ugandan Knuckles is a bunch of African stereotypes applied to a silly knuckles drawing. The clicking, spitting, tribe references, and bad English are all stereotypes of Africans as 'primitive' people.

It was Ugandans themselves that started the meme, though.

[down]Oh, it might've been. I was told the origination was from Ugandan people, but I could be wrong. At the very least it was definitely started from people in Africa regardless.

Yeah the meme's racist but it crosses the line into being funny at least to me.

Its not like its wrong to enjoy a little black comedy.

I thought the meme started because a video of a homophobic Ugandan preacher ranting went viral.

I never said all his videos were racist, just that the only one I saw turned out to be about something racist.

Oh, I understood that, when I read that I thought that you read my post as me saying Artemis added the racism to the Ugandan Knuckles meme so I was trying to clarify if there was any confusion.

Where did this 'started by the Ugandans' come from? I have never heard that and can't find a credible source for it.

All the sources I can find for the various inspirations for the meme aren't Ugandan at all.
