@ Beary: At least Sasuke wasn't knee-deep in the crazy back then. There wasn't much more to Sakura's feelings than simple infatuation, sure, but Sasuke still showed some signs of redemption (or just not being a sociopathic avenger). Can't say the same for him now.

I swear to God Sasuke x Sakura is one of the worst romances in history.

The fact that that pairing actually has so many supporters is among one of the many reasons why humanity is such a fucking shameful races of morons.

[up] And she never moved past the infatuation for some unGodly reason.

Sakura is a prime example of what happens when you don't get over your middle-school crush.

@ slim: Life doesn't always imitate fiction, you know. A lot of fans of that pairing know full well how screwed up it is and certainly aren't looking to it as an exemplar of shonen romance. Don't be so quick to generalize, man. [lol]

@ Rynnec: And your middle school crush goes on to become a Serial Killer but you still love him. Don't forget that part.

Thoughts this week...

  • My Hero Academia
    • The episode looked like it was gonna be a pure recap episode at the beginning, though thankfully that wasn't the case.
    • Is this the start of a sports game arc? I'm guessing this is gonna be the closest we get to Toonami airing a sports anime...
    • Uraraka's really into sports sure came out of nowhere...
  • Pop Team Epic - ... what? Oh, sorry. I was just thinking about Hellshake Yano.
  • Stardust Crusaders
    • This is it... the Grand Finale of Part 3. It was a long journey, and I enjoyed every second of it, just like I enjoyed every second of Parts 1 and 2. Here's to another amazing journey with Part 4, and eventually Part 5 when/if that comes to the block.
    • It's about time we got the road roller clip... and like almost everything else in this show, it's the pure definition of Crazy Awesome.
  • Black Clover - I think Captain Yami has to be my favorite character in this show. "Guess I must've gotten lost, anyone know where the bar is?" he says as he pulls a Big Damn Heroes moment for Asta.
  • One-Punch Man - I look forward to reliving all of this show. Purple Piccolo, Saitama bitch-slapping Mosquito Girl, Karnage Kabuto, the meteor, Saitama fighting Genos...
  • Other - The new Attack on Titan promo looks sweet, though unless I missed any, I notice a lack of Titans other than Eren.

This is not the greatest signature in the world, no... this is just a tribute.

The last episode of Hoshiiro Girldrop is going to be really fucked up, isn't it?

Never trust anyone who uses "degenerate" as an insult.

WOOT! Toonami starting at 9! (10 if you're on the East Coast).

I may be the odd man out, but I thought the end of this Tournament Arc was the definition of anticlimactic. I get that Todoroki was having a bout of character development, but come on! Bakugou wasn't the only one pissed at how that fight ended.
