More Boss Luffy filler or something tangentially related to the current story?

Some "Straw hats each get into some individual antics in Water 7 while they wait on Franky's ship" stuff.

I would love more Boss Luffy, though.

I'm pretty sure there was at least one more Boss Luffy filler somewhere along the line. I know it involved characters from a later arc.

Johanna Luis is an alias for Dorothy Fahn.

You know this was always my least favorite Frieza Form. Like it's just so out of place.

This was common with both him and Cell, probably Buu as well — the editors don't like the current form, so Toriyama changes it around to make it work. This is also how we ended up with Androids 17 and 18.

I'm diggin this doctor.

So it turns out contrary to what fans may have thought, Kent being cast as Deus here was complete coincidence! Seems like this was at the same time he recorded for Future Diary.

Since I'm a VA whore, who does Kyoko's (that's her name right, Asuna's Mom?) voice?

Johanna Luis, AKA Dorothy Elias-Fahn (Meryl in Trigun, Lalamon in Digimon Savers, An in Sailor Moon).

She's also one of the principle female roles in Tenchi Muyo GXP. But we Faithful do not ever speak of that show.

I see AGK is using the anime/Attack On Titan method of sudden character deaths. Anyway can we expect this Esdeath/Exdeath chick to appear next week?

It's ES-death.

And any anime that has many deaths scattered through the show is automatically bad? ... huh.

It depends on how they do it.

I admit, anime these days have a higher chance of being poorly-written than a decade or so ago due to the high competition with other writers, and more dependence on sales. This has come to the point where absolutely any show currently on Toonami has legitimate reasons for receiving a large amount of hate.

Line Up change effective on the 3rd of October!

Parasyte does indeed replace SAO and Kill La Kill replaces Attack on Titan. That's about it though.

What's Parasyte about? Parasites I'm guessing.

One night, strange spores fall from the sky onto the earth. Out of them hatch weird little worms that quickly infiltrate human neighborhoods, looking for host bodies. The worms crawl or burrow their way into the head of a human host, transforming it and the brain inside. This effectively kills the victim, replacing the host's personality and intellect with that of the parasite. These parasites have a ravenous appetite for the flesh of the species they take over—in this case, humans.

But one specific worm goofs it up - because its intended target, an Ordinary High-School Student named Shinichi Izumi, was wearing headphones, the parasite can't get to his brain, and instead ends up stuck inside Shinichi's right arm. Because of this unique situation, Shinichi and the parasite he nicknames Migi (meaning "right") are sharing the same body, but still possess their own individual intellects. This gives them an edge in battling the other parasites, who see Shinichi's ability to think independently as a threat. Shinichi also feels compelled to fight other parasites, who kill and eat humans as a source of food, whereas Migi, like other parasites, is incapable of emotion and only fights to preserve his own life. Thus, Shinichi is forced to deal with all kinds of teenage issues while keeping a horrifying secret and having to battle against hordes of other parasites who want to use him (like Ryoko Tamiya, a scientist and Shinichi's teacher), kill him (just about everyone else) or worse.

Anyone can wear headphones. It doesn't sound much like a unique situation, but I'll reserve judgment until I actually see the show.

Sentai will be keeping the initial Parasyte cast close to their chest until the first episode airs, just like with AgK. Likely not for NDA reasons though.

If Funimation and VIZ can release their cast list weeks before their dubs, why can't Sentai?

Suspense maybe?

I dunno, would that work? Is it actually important to the show?

Surprise expectation, but I expect more Funi vets to do some roles.

Not surprised that M&H was pushed back in favor of Parasyte.

Now if they could just swap Shippuden with One Piece, it would be perfect.

[up]No, then you move Akame Ga Kill to before (or after) Shippuden and then it's perfect.

You really don't like that show do you, consider your constant need to rag on it.

You mind letting other people enjoy it rather than constantly stating how much you don't like it whenever the subject comes up.
