TOONAMI
Monday-Thursday
3:00-Sailor Moon Sailor Stars-- no interest despite my love for trannies.
3:30 Transformers: Beast Wars/Beast Machines--They lost me after Razor and Tigerton were "abducted/killed." I liked the idea of organic-mecha hybrids later on, and the Rattrap/Dinobot duo, Black Archania, and Silverbolt were all my faves.
4:00 Reboot-- Saw the whole thing, grew up with it as a kid. Season Four was cancelled halfway through and ends with Megatron winning. Even worse is that Megatron voice actor Tony Jay is dead.
4:30 Ronin Warriors-- Saw it, was cool as a kid, not so interesting now.

Fridays would feature an all '80's line-up:

3:00 Tranzor-Z--I keep thinking of Transvestites with razors whenever I read this title.
3:30 Voltron-- This show always bugged me. The baddies could have just nuked Volton while it combined and the Voltron guys should have just pull a Sid Meyer Civilization 2 move and ICBM the baddies into submission.
4:00 Robotech:Macross--I vaguely remember watching this as a kid, is this the version where they fought giants?
4:30 Thundercats-- Meh, never seems to click with me and I like furries, too.

ADULT SWIM(Saturday night)

10:00 Bleach-- too much annoying filler, and I loathe the core cast.
10:30 Soul Eater-- I'll watch it on Anime44
11:00 Nabari No Ou--?????
11:30 Gintama--?????
12:00 Godannar--LOL, My mate has this entire series. Big robots and huge titties are his thing. He recommends it highly.
12:30 To Loveru--????
1:00 Dokkoida --????
1:30 Yu Yu Hakusho--Urgh. Again something my best mate likes.
2:00 Revolutionary Girl Utena--????
2:30 UFO Ultramaiden Valkyrie --LOL, what is it with you kids and huge titties?
3:00 Hellsing Ultimate--Read the Manga and watched some of these episodes. I still prefer the Manga. Despite the big titties, Mangaka Kohta Hirano actually had a deeper more compelling narrative hidden underneath all the cool actions and slick guns. That and Seres keeps getting bigger guns as the Manga progresses. Alucard ain't got shit on the hardware Seres packs.
3:30 Red Garden
4:00 Elfen Lied-- Again my mate bought this and said it was right up my alley, which is when the Mangaka mind-fucks with the characters and the reader/audience.
4:30 Inu Yasha: final season-- Wiki-ed it and have no interest in finishing it.

I'd see about half of that. I don't know, I've gotten really picky when buying western comics, Japanese Manga, and Japanese Anime.

I'd see about half of that. I don't know, I've gotten really picky when buying western comics, Japanese Manga, and Japanese Anime.

Oi, you were supposed to pick your own line-up! =P

I take it that the question marks mean you haven't heard of these shows?

Nabari no Ou--about a slacker Japanese kid who is descended from a legendary ninja clan. He gains a special ninja ability that, if mastered, can let him do anything. A teacher at his school, also descended from ninja, tries to train and protect the boy from various ninja clans who either want to kill him and take his power for themselves.

Gintama--takes place in a parallel world where aliens invaded Japan around the same time Commadore Perry did in our world. All about "Odd Jobs Gin," former samurai who...ugh, its complicated. Wiki it, its a really good show! Action/comedy.

To Loveru--another show about "huge titties.":evilsmile: a hapless Japanese high schooler accidentally touches the breasts of the alien princess LaLa, which on her world means a proposal of marriage. So LaLa moves in with the boy and proclaims that she is his wife. Hijinks and partial nudity ensue.

Dokkoida--about a boy who gets a transformation belt from an alien girl that turns him into an Ultra Man type here. In a diaper. Action/comedy. How have you not heard of this?:tongue:

Utena--another one you should wiki--too complicated to get into fully. It mostly involves a girl named Utena fighting sword duels to protect her friend/possible love interest Anthy the Rose Bride and unlock the power of Dios.

By the way,
a)do you seriously need to ask why we "kids" (I'm over 30) like big breasts?? :tongue:
b)a "ro-beast" tried to attack the lions while they were trying to form Voltron and couldn't touch them cos they were surrounded by an energy barrier.
c)you like furries? Freak! LOL Just kidding.
d) "transvestites with razors?" That actually sounds like a good show! LoL.
e)yes, the Macross chapter of Robotech--a.k.a. the only chapter that really matters--involved a squad of humans fighting giant aliens.

[fod_xp]

Oi, you were supposed to pick your own line-up! =P

I wouldn't have had enough. Too many animes end up following the same tropes, same as Western cartoons or animated movies. It's getting really tiresome for me to watch them.


I take it that the question marks mean you haven't heard of these shows?

You would be 100% correct.


Nabari no Ou--about a slacker Japanese kid who is descended from a legendary ninja clan. He gains a special ninja ability that, if mastered, can let him do anything. A teacher at his school, also descended from ninja, tries to train and protect the boy from various ninja clans who either want to kill him and take his power for themselves.

Seen it, done it: Luke Skywalker from Star Wars, Naruto from...er...Naruto, Ichigo from Bleach, Goku from Dragon Ball, Eragon, I could go on. It may be a great show, but as I said, the premise is a well worn trope.


Gintama--takes place in a parallel world where aliens invaded Japan around the same time Commadore Perry did in our world. All about "Odd Jobs Gin," former samurai who...ugh, its complicated. Wiki it, its a really good show! Action/comedy.

Now THIS sounds GREAT! I will be on the look out for this.


To Loveru--another show about "huge titties.":evilsmile: a hapless Japanese high schooler accidentally touches the breasts of the alien princess LaLa, which on her world means a proposal of marriage. So LaLa moves in with the boy and proclaims that she is his wife. Hijinks and partial nudity ensue.

I could watch Tenchi Muyo instead. I like Ryoko and "Little" Washuu.


Dokkoida--about a boy who gets a transformation belt from an alien girl that turns him into an Ultra Man type here. In a diaper. Action/comedy. How have you not heard of this?:tongue:

Meh, Guyver did that already and I laugh my ass off at Sho's ineptitude.


Utena--another one you should wiki--too complicated to get into fully. It mostly involves a girl named Utena fighting sword duels to protect her friend/possible love interest Anthy the Rose Bride and unlock the power of Dios.

I'll pass. Have you watched Noein or Paranoia Agent? Those were pretty darn cool.


By the way,
a)do you seriously need to ask why we "kids" (I'm over 30) like big breasts?? :tongue:

Yes, yes I do. I like boobies myself, but that doesn't mean I have to have every woman in my anime come standard with double D breast sizes.


b)a "ro-beast" tried to attack the lions while they were trying to form Voltron and couldn't touch them cos they were surrounded by an energy barrier.

LOL, Plot armor, wonderful! Why not then go with plan B and download a trojan horse virus into their network and cause a cascade systems failure mid-combat? Sorry, been watching too much Ghost in the Shell and I grew up with Reboot.


c)you like furries? Freak! LOL Just kidding.

You couldn't tell by my X-Men Beast avatar? Most X-Fans HATE the feline Beast character design.


d) "transvestites with razors?" That actually sounds like a good show! LoL.

I watch too much LOGO.


e)yes, the Macross chapter of Robotech--a.k.a. the only chapter that really matters--involved a squad of humans fighting giant aliens.

Well, at least they weren't giant bugs, that's so passe.

[blackphoenix]

Seen it, done it: Luke Skywalker from Star Wars, Naruto from...er...Naruto, Ichigo from Bleach, Goku from Dragon Ball, Eragon, I could go on. It may be a great show, but as I said, the premise is a well worn trope. The only difference is that the kid in Nabari no Oh is completely apathetic about the whole "power to do anything he wants"(it manifests itself as writing all over his body when it activates, by the way). He really could care less about ninjas or changing the world.




Now THIS sounds GREAT! I will be on the look out for this. Yes, you should DEFINITELY search out Gintama! It's really good.



Meh, Guyver did that already and I laugh my ass off at Sho's ineptitude. Dokkoida is a good show! Funny and dramatic. At least give it a try!




I'll pass. Have you watched Noein or Paranoia Agent? Those were pretty darn cool. I have seen a bit of Noein. Was Paranoia Agent the show with Little Slugger going around attacking people with a baseball bat? I didn't get that show at all.




Yes, yes I do. I like boobies myself, but that doesn't mean I have to have every woman in my anime come standard with double D breast sizes. I love big breasts and want to see them as much as possible, animated or otherwise.:evilsmile:




LOL, Plot armor, wonderful! Why not then go with plan B and download a trojan horse virus into their network and cause a cascade systems failure mid-combat? Sorry, been watching too much Ghost in the Shell and I grew up with Reboot. It was the '80's, they didn't know from computer viruses back then.:tongue:




You couldn't tell by my X-Men Beast avatar? Most X-Fans HATE the feline Beast character design. I loved the Beast's new lion form as drawn by Frank Quitely, but a few artists make him look ridiculous, like Tony the Tiger. Who drew the picture of the Beast you use for your avatar? I like that one! How do you like the look of Beast in the new X-Men movie? He looks SO cuddly!:smile:



I watch too much LOGO. I wish my cable company got that channel!

Eh, I'll give it a try. Not really doing anything else lately.


Yes, you should DEFINITELY search out Gintama! It's really good.

Will do.


Dokkoida is a good show! Funny and dramatic. At least give it a try!

Okay, I will.

Noien is about alternate realities. The being that travel through the space between realities are themselves composed of a special matter, ergo, not organic.


I love big breasts and want to see them as much as possible, animated or otherwise.

You need a Sir Mix-a-Lot remix that replaces butts with boobies. :biggrin:


It was the '80's, they didn't know from computer viruses back then.:tongue:

God, don't remind me, the 80s were terrible.

My avatar was drawn by Italian artist Simone Bianchi. He did a recent arc on Astonishing X-Men with British comic writer Warren Ellis.

Here's the artist's website, go nuts: Simone Bianchi's Official Website (http://www.simonebianchi.com/uk/index.php)

There's DC and Marvel artwork, in addition to his own comic works. He is one of my favorite comic book artists.


I wish my cable company got that channel!

Ru Paul's Drag Race is hilarious! But the Gay/Homosexual Horror movies are even more hilarious. There is always a Rave scene and a locker room scene. :tongue:

I like big t***s and I cannot lie! :biggrin:



God, don't remind me, the 80s were terrible. I was a child of the '80's, so I loved every second of it and wish I could go back and do it all over again, but not frak it up this time.

So...is there nudity on LOGO? :evilsmile:Do you know the website for the channel? Maybe I can watch some of the shows online.
