[up]I can sympathize with being frustrated over Hunter X Hunter being picked up; there were already three longrunners on the block - only one of which (Kai) has an end anywhere in sight - and with the shorter block an extra longrunner severely limits Toonami's diversity and disrupts the balance of longrunner & seasonal + rerun that previously existed.

Actually, Hunter x Hunter 2011 has ended in Japan a while ago.

Setting aside that I was talking about before Hunter X Hunter was added, it being over in Japan does not in any away change the fact that it just started here and is an almost 3 year commitment for Toonami.

And now, a shonen mystery for the ages: Tien's Tri-Beam makes a square crater.

Still one of his best moments in the entire Dragon Ball saga.

Man, they get a lot of mileage out of that stock shot of Cell screaming in pain.

Even by DB standards, I can't take Cell's second form seriously.

Ah, Cell's face. the ugly mug that inspired the SHOOP DA WOOP.

...Which I have just learned is actually a thing in The Binding Of Isaac

@ Maestro: It is a really goofy-sounding voice (the fish lips don't help either), but I've got to respect Dameon Clarke's voice acting chops. He makes each form of Cell sound distinct from one another, something that I can't recall is true of the Japanese version. (Granted, there you have Emperor Wakamoto himself as Cell, so it's arguably an instance of splitting the difference.)

Wowie, I learned something interesting today.

On a related note, it's a fairly crappy item in BoI. Not horrible per say, but outclassed by many other superior spacebar items out there.

@Lionheart: It is mostly the fishlips, it's especially jarring considering how cool his first form looked.

[up][up] And now we all wish we didn't.

Mikazuki's definitely got... something going on (or something not going on right) in his head. I had my suspicions in earlier episodes, but that "outburst" of his cements it.

Also, am I the only one getting James Bond (or "Snake Eater") vibes from the Iron-Blooded Orphans ED?
