I'm getting a JoJo (Joseph version) meets Guts vibe from him.

Dunno about you, but I Like Brak more.

I wonder what archaeologists will think of the monument a thousand years from now...

Kill la Kill has proven to me that over-the-top western-style cartoony-ness and anime work together like chocolate and peanut-butter. Its a great, delicious combination that I hope we get to see more of.

Japan is really kicking America's ass when it comes to supersized fast-food nowadays.

Yeah, the otaku pandering stuff has gotten out of the hand in the past few years. I can probably count on one hand the number of series in the past few years that didn't pander to Japanese otakus' ridiculously niche tastes, and those are typically the ones that I've enjoyed and watched, or am watching, to the end.

One of my biggest issues with these videos is how he takes advantage of Youtube's SEO system to get views. I could be watching something totally unrelated to movies, and there they are, his videos shitting on the recommended list on the right-hand side of the page.

Among other reasons, the Eagles are also sentient, and like other sentients in Middle-Earth, they can be tempted by the Ring. There's a very good chance that, in the middle of flight, the eagle flying Frodo could become tempted by the ring and just simply drop Frodo to his death, and then take the ring for itself.

My guess is that they were trying to tweak the proportions in post-production, to make them look more like the Titans in the manga and anime, but yeah, that shot feels "off", effects-wise. My guess is that they couldn't easily scale the head without affecting the rest of the body during that shot. If they were going…

"Now we're at the mercy of Japanese actors bad acting"

They've been out-America-ing us in the snack food and fast food business for a while now.

This is not Evangelion-flavored. It's salt, but not The Mexican Salt.

I am very surprised they haven't done this here yet. You'd think it'd be a no-brainer. We've got bacon-flavored vodka, for fuck's sakes. Bacon Doritos is far less weird.

Somebody should make a 'shop of Kyubey as Morpheus.

"Take the red pill and you'll become a Magical Reeves! Take the blue pill...and you'll also become a Magical Reeves!"

Came here for this, disappointed to not see it in the pictures.

Usually, I go by their names or canon. If they have a Japanese name, then the huge odds are that they are Japanese. If they don't a Japanese name, then I assume they are not Japanese or are ambiguous at best. And if canon says they are not Japanese, like in Attack on Titan, then that's that.

Since they are making a…

Most are, unless they are canonically non-Japanese, have non-Japanese names (like in fantasy or scifi shows), or are distinctly non-Asian in appearance (how many tall black dudes are native to Japan?), then I just go with the thought that they are not Japanese or are ambiguous, at best.

I knew it would be a mostly comedic anime from the get-go, and it was pretty much confirmed to me when Watanabe said every episode is like Mushroom Samba. I kept my mind open and I'm enjoying it so far. Then again, I love absurdist comedy anime so I may have my biases. I still have my dvd sets of FLCL and Excel Saga…
