I should be asleep, but ah well. Time for the 2 part Lupin finale! Italian dream stuff will be back, so shits going to get weird.

I noticed that the female Chimera Ants are not insignificantly more human-looking than their male counterparts.

@ Xenio: I'm with slim on this one. I think the dissonance caused by that juxtaposition is intentional.

[up] How else would we know they're female, Beary? tongue

[up] There designs are incredibly quirky & colorful which is fitting for a shonen with an apparent cute art-style.

Makes the violence all the more weirder & wacky.

I just remembered. Wasn't that guy from the Hunter Exam arc a sniper? So that's why he made himself an Arrow Nen ability.

Damn Nyx is a Liam Neeson character on on some pretty hard stuff.

Oh wow were on episode 25 already, we almost done here.

What did Lupin's calling card say there?

What will replace this series?

Isn't Space Dandy replacing it?

I think it was his card from episode 1; when he first started courting Rebecca. I think it's Italian for "I'm coming to take you away tonight".

Ah, I know. The block must be reshuffling slightly since Space Dandy will be in the 2:30 slot.

Yep, just checked. Naruto and Outlaw Star will both be bumped up a half-hour.

Also, Dandy is a stop-gap of sorts; there was supposed to be a different show ready to air, but there were some legal issues that came up, hence the new lineup.

Oooh a new show, I am excited. grin

Though damn knowing how much crap Naruto becomes makes me wish it got taken off the air instead of One Piece.

Sure OP has Godawful pacing but it hasn't gone to complete shit yet & at least it pads itself instead of going on filler.

I actually don't mind sitting through Naruto (at worst, I just zone out during Filler Hell), though I maintain the opinion that this would be far more bearable if Toonami aired more than one episode per week.

At least we have Outlaw Star right now to take our minds off things.

Oh yeah, I forgot that this guy had a Caster based on a shakujo. It's a pretty neat design, if not a bit impractical-looking.

McGillis, please stay away from Melfina. Please.

What is a shakujo?

McGillis is reminding me of a creepy stalker in this episode.

I'm pretty sure he is a creepy stalker.

His dialogue is that of a possessive boyfriend.

Damn he tore off his arm.

See now Harry should have left a box of chocolates instead of a bloody discarded arm. I don't think Melfina's into that.
