Lantern7 October 27, 2018 Share October 27, 2018 (edited) Reminder: Mob Psycho 100 debuts tonight at 11:30; FLCL: Alternative moves to 2 a.m. And I think One-Punch Man moves from there to 2:30. ETA: Not bad. Mob kinda looks related to Saitama, though it might just be the vacant face. Nice concept with him being the apprentice of a total fraud . . . a relationship that gets flipped in One-Punch Man, with Saitama not feeling like being a mentor to Genos.

Maybe it will get better. Most annoying opening theme music so far this year. It was nice to see a grown up version of the butt-chin kid from One Punch Man.

And if you don't, there are only twelve episodes to air. Like I said, the second season with debut in Japan soon, with the first episode premiering at Anime NYC. I looked up the narrator . . .

For the new schedule I'm probably going to have to DVR all my shows. It's funny because I was saying that having Shippuden on before Boruto was a bad idea. It's also funny that again Dragon Ball Z (Kai) will be ending before I get to watch the whole thing again (this time before we even get to Frieza). On the plus side it looks like Funimation will be streaming Kai sometime soon so I'll have to pick back up with that.

Lantern7 March 28, 2019 Share March 28, 2019 (edited) What is this? Is it good? ETA: Here's the plot from Wikipedia. The first word coming to my mind: "Damn." Spoiler Set in year 2045, Emma is an 11-year-old orphan living in Grace Field House, a small orphanage housing her and her 37 siblings. Life had never been better; with food that tasted gourmet, plush beds, snow-white uniforms, and the love of their "Mother" (the caretaker) Isabella, as well the litany of daily exams that Emma always aced with her two best friends Ray and Norman. The orphans are basically allowed to do whatever they want, except venture out of the compounds or the gate that connects the house to the outside world. On a fateful night, an orphan named Conny is sent away to be adopted, but Emma and Norman follow her after noticing that she had left her stuffed rabbit toy, Bernie, back at the house. Sneaking out, they find Conny dead and the truth of the existence of this supposed orphanage to be a farm where human children are raised as food for demonic creatures. Worse still, Isabella is in allegiance with the demons, ripping away at everything the two ever thought they knew. Determined to break out of Grace Field House, Norman and Emma partner up with Ray to peel away at the façade of the farm and find a way to escape with all their other siblings.
