Oh hey guess what's coming to Netflix

Eva.

Random. Oh and Ultraman.

Psycho-Pass 2 is also v excellent, although a bit shorter than I would have liked.

On to the Psycho-Pass movie. Heard they are releasing 3 more movies next year too which is awesome.

Netflix has announced they will be making a 10-episode live adaptation of Cowboy Bebop.

Shinichiro Watanabe, director of the original anime, is on board as a consultant. Chris Yost, who wrote the scripts for the last 2 Thor movies will write the first episode and will be an Executive Producer.

They better not fuck it up. Cowboy Bebop is the greatest thing ever.

Psycho-Pass movie is just as good as the series. The set up of the series makes it a really good fit for movies. Stoked for the next one in January.

Moving on I think I'm going to give Tokyo Ghoul:Re a go. My understanding is that the original 2 seasons, while semi popular, pissed a lot of people off because they strayed from the manga too much or something. I thought this was going to be a pure reboot, but it seems like a time skip and using that to change the set up of the show instead. I dunno. Hope it's good. I was actually a fan of the original and hope they didn't damage what I liked about the show in the first place.

they cant fuck it up. The anime exists and is perfect. That will never change space cowboy.

I don't mean it like that. I'm referring to the live action itself and that they better not fuck that up. I want it to be greatness like the anime.

Well...it wont be lol

13 hours condensed into...200 min? Yeah.

As long as they do the characters justice, I'm good with it.

I'm thinking they will completely cut all the stand alone episodes out and maybe the series will focus solely on the core storyline of spikes life.

Wait...series? I misread and thought it was a movie...this has more potential

Any Blade Runner fans here? You'll like this.

Cartoon Network's Adult Swim, Crunchyroll, and Alcon Television group are going to join forces and produce and distribute Blade Runner-Black Lotus.

This will be a inspiration series to last year's (underappreciated, in my opinion) film Blade Runner: 2049.

Sola Digital will be putting it together. With Shinji Aramaki, director of Appleseed, and Kenji Kamiyama who oversaw Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex taking turns as directors.

The Wrap broke the news, so here's a link.

I am totally down for that. Blade Runner is incredible and Ghost in the Shell is another of my all time favorites.

Continuing ever onward with my incessant binging of anime, I have caught up on Tokyo Ghoul:Re. It's ok but I like the pre RE stuff better.

Now I'm going to check out a new anime that recently started called That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime.

Ghoul had about 20 good eps and went to shit fast

Let me know about slime. Ive almost started it a few times

Destor. Watch it.

Only 6 eps dubbed thus far and not many more subbed past that as it is a new and ongoing series....but seriously.....watch it. I sincerely believe you will come back sharing my new found passion for this show.

I want this show turned into a game NOW. It is literally the PERFECT set up for a new take on the classic JRPG. You'll see what I mean.

I see the Hunter X Hunter Manga has been moving forward again. Hopefully he finishes it up this time around so the anime can start back up. I need to know what happens to Gon damnit.

Hulu subscribers, you've just hit the jackpot.

Hulu and Funimation have agreed to multi-year deal with will greatly expand Hulu's anime offering greatly.

So it IS an evil plot to take over the world. Or at least take my money.

Watching D.Gray-man now. I used to watch it way back in the day on Netflix but they didn't have the whole series so I never finished it. Gonna watch the rest now and the follow-up.

Random question I have always had.....why do so many anime/manga have names that make absolutely no sense?

Japanese language is weird man. Just accept it and move on.

I mean I have no clue why Bleach is an anime/manga about grim reapers fighting monsters from beyond the grave but there it is.

Two theories (neither official)

1. Soul Reapers cleanse souls like bleach cleanses stains

2. Creator is (legit) a huge Nirvana fan

I think 2 is most likely true

Time to watch this weeks eps of Slime and Black Clover, then back to D.Gray-man.

And I don't mean ones that are named like Bleach. I mean ones that use made up words and symbols and shit as their title lol. One I have always liked that has a ridiculous title is s-CRY-ed. Like....wtf is that. That is not a translation issue lol.

I need Bleach to come back. Need all those badass bankais animated.

I concur.

Ghost in the Shell: SAC_2045 anime coming in 2020 to Netflix. Finally get a 3rd gig.

Finally decided to buy a subscription to Funimation. 6 bucks a month isn't bad for the simuldubs and increased quality over bootleg streams.

You might be vindicated when there is a new show in the future called Drain You or Pennyroyal Tea.

Found another show I really dig called Assassination Classroom. Never seen anything quite like it. Sensei may be one of the best anime characters of all time.

Pretty into Goblin Slayer and am about to dip into the The Record of Lodoss War

You guys need to watch The Backstreet Girls so amazing

I literally just got done watching Record of the Lodoss War again yesterday. Was my first anime way back in the day and I love it dearly.

Heard about it on an old Adnd podcast and am rather curious how it translates

Uhg, found another one of those anime that is bad ass but gets cut short -_-

It was called Seraph of the End: Vampire Reign and was made by the same people as Attack on Titan. I personally find it to be about a million times better than the hype machine that is AoT.

Especially dug the art style. Kind of gritty, not as well drawn backgrounds, similar to Cowboy Bebop, but with super clean and well animated characters. Sounds like a weird mix but it looked really really good imo.

There is a short series of OVAs and then a longer series of episodic anime. Both are good but I found the anime series to be better. It has one of the most heart breaking moments in anime for me.

Episode 90 of One Piece right now.

Still watching Goblin Slayer.

I mean Animation is sorta meh but I love the fact he only wants to kill Goblins and doesn't even have the slighest clue what any of the other races are outside of Humans and Goblins.

So my town isn't going to get the Broly movie, and I prefer subtitles anyway, so I just downloaded a cam version and watched it.

First impressions are this is the best Dragon Ball movie ever. It's a little over half the movie before any real fighting starts, but I was very entertained for all the set up. Lots of really cool flashbacks and insight into the saiyan empire and their relationship with Freiza. Some new characters introduced that I genuinely liked and enjoyed.

Broly is given a bit more of a personality. Not much, but the important thing is you're given more reason to care about him than the previous version.

Then the fight starts. And holy shit is it good. Forget about this being the best that Dragon Ball has ever looked, this is one of the best looking anime I've ever seen.

Fucking tremendous stuff.

They added more showing in my town, so instead of a 7 and 9 pm showing, which cuts into sexy time, There is a 1:15 showing, so planning to go see that next thursday.
