WOOO DRAGON BALL IS BACK BITCHES~~~

Dragon Ball: Daima premieres next year.

Sepholio 10-12-2023 02:11 PM

Seems weird. Not a continuation of Super. Almost like they are retconning Super in a way. Or maybe it's between Z and Super. I dunno. Everyone gets turned into kids though. Literally everyone.

Sepholio 10-12-2023 02:13 PM

Toriyama at the helm and it's said that he is more involved with this project than he usually is with the others.

Sepholio 10-12-2023 02:14 PM

Deffo seems to be set between Z and Super.

Really wish they'd continue Super though -_-

Sepholio 10-12-2023 02:16 PM

Animation looks really good. Seems like they are going with the more detailed style from the recent movies.

Sepholio 10-12-2023 02:18 PM

Ok so best I can tell: Everyone gets de-aged and they set off on a galaxy trotting adventure with kid Kaioshin leading the party.

Fignuts 10-12-2023 04:39 PM

Looks like it will be worth watching for the animation alone. Hope Super looks this good when they pick it up again.

Why not? He isn't bad with delivery, and he has a distinctive enough voice to be recognized.

It's weird how Netflix has had such a good run of anime the last few years, but they've done it again as far as I'm concerned. Pluto is fucking excellent. It reminds me of Big O in its tone in a way. Episodes are also an hour long, which is weird for an anime but works so well for this show. Half way through the first season now and loving it. If it keeps up the quality shown thus far then it will probably end up ranking very highly in my list of favorite anime.

Sepholio 11-05-2023 06:39 PM

Pluto was great the whole way through. Top 10 for me for sure. From what I heard, it's a loose telling of one of the arcs of Astro Boy but told from a different characters perspective. I dunno about all that, but the Big O vibes hold on throughout and I won't complain about that since I'll never get a season 3 of Big O to fill the void.

And continuing the trend of Netflix dropping banger after banger, I've started Blue Eye Samurai and this one seems to be legit af as well. Too early for a fair assessment yet though.

Sepholio 11-05-2023 06:55 PM

yeah dont let the kids watch this one for sure. Full nudity involved.

Sepholio 11-06-2023 02:38 PM

Lots of nudity. Great show though. I'll be on the lookout for future seasons of Blue Eye Samurai.

Moved on to the next Netflix offering. Onimusha. Based on the old capcom games. And guess what? Damned if ain't another fucking banger, especially for a video game adaptation. They been doing a few of those justice lately.

:lol: I decided to read IMDB's parents guide section for the series and it even says that in it.

Sex & Nudity

Severe 35 of 52 found this severe

...

Nudity in nearly every episode.

Nope, not for children. Not even for teenagers.

Fignuts 11-10-2023 08:52 PM

Watched the first episode. Really good. Animation of the fight scenes is incredible.

Destor 11-11-2023 10:46 AM

Halfway into Pluto. Seems bizarre to rework astroboy into a detective show. Its def more Big O than anything. Would be lying if i didnt say i really am ready for this to pop off with some Kaiju nonsense but the writting is extremely good so its not like im hating it.

ClockShot 11-29-2023 07:18 AM

Onimusha on Netflix was getting good. Then it just........ended.

I hope there's a second season.

Same. It's not like they don't have several more games worth of story to work with.

I honestly didn't even realize I was watching Astroboy related content until I read it somewhere.

Finally got around to getting a Crunchyroll subscription.

Shield Hero season 3 is up and running. Also liking Berserk of Gluttony.

Shadow 12-12-2023 05:13 PM

Berserk of Gluttony is pretty good. A refreshing change from the usual overpowered protagonists in some animes.
