In case you couldn't tell, yes, yes he is. I like the title for it, ("Cards") for some unknown reason.

Well, if you add up the amount of posts in the last AE, subtract the Card discussion......yup, this thing is screwed.

Also, card discussion can be found here (http://forums.toonzone.net/showthread.php?threadid=77243)

Where are the threads for the new episodes?

They're coming, it's just that they're put out just a few minutes before each episode airs, so they should be put out about... a minute or something.

I remember first seeing this episode several months ago. I fully expected to hear swirly-eyed Inu-Yasha say, "Oro?!" :)

If they can call Sango's attack by it's true name 'Hiraikotsu', then why can't they just call Miroku's attack by it's true name 'Kazaana'. I cringe everytime I hear 'Wind tuuuuunelllllll!'. ><

Does anyone have a screenshot of the "Becktionary" from last night's Futurama. Or, if not, does anyone know all of the text on the front of it?

I don't know if this even matters anymore, but the one big goof in "Times Keep on Slippin" (of Futurama) was when those kids aged into senior citizens and no one else aged was actually answered in the episode. They said it was because it was an "isolated time skip" in which only one part of space would time skip and the rest wouldn't. I just can't figure out why I missed that until now.

Not on Cartoon Network. Try Cinemax.

****, you know I meant "promo." I was gonna correct it, too, but I knew I'd be too late. :p

A promo? Well, that's a different story. I'm surprised it hasn't aired again since SVES....unless it has.

Wait for Wendesday or Thursday for them to start showing the Kikaider "Promo" again. It's probably because Wendesday suppose to be news day or something of that nature.
Aurochs

Kikaider: I've come to deliver a pizza.

Evil Android Monster: Oh, but I don't have enough robot currency to pay for it. And I don't have a digestive tract!

Kikaider: I'll think of a way for you to pay for it.

Evil Androd Monster: Oh, your surge protector is showing!

...Alright, that's enough of that.

OK, that's it...

Will they PLEASE stop showig the Batman and Robin Not For Airs? PLEASE?! I'll go down to Williams Street and pay them to do it. JUST. STOP. SHOWING. THEM. How many other shorts do they have laying around? Why can't they show the REST of the ones that were on Adult Swim?! GAH. It's Trouble if it's Fair all over again :mad::mad:

Yeah, I agree. They have some sort of fetish with the episodes I call "swamp" and "Rome".

Speaking of which, does anyone have a list of all of the shorts that aired on Adult Swim?

Those Not for Airs suck. They should show the Kikaider ad instead.

I disagree. I think they're clever.

The Not For Airs are great, as are the Wondertwins adventures and Watering Hole (not so much "What is [character] thinking?")

We just need new "episodes" of...all of them.

The "What is Quick Draw McGraw Thinking" made me bust up laughing, simply because of it's intentional mundanity. The gimmick quickly got tiring though, but otherwise, I agree with you.

Hey, it could be worse. They could me making more of those "Babies" shorts.

You know in "I Dated A Robot" they mention that there is only one parallel universe, but yet in the next new episode "The Farnsworth Paradox" Leela's suppose to travel to another parallel universe. Then again, maybe the device in that episode makes a new parallel universe or something.

"Grogg did a masterful job of ****ing us"

Does anyone know what Batman originally said there? I listened to that part really closely & I can't think of any other word that could go there.

okays since we now got lupins intro back even with old episodes its no fluke!

english sung/no lyrics intros = fine
jp sung intros = bad! http://members.aol.com/kimminakochan/chicken.gif

I think it has more to do then that. I mean they did have the Yu Yu Hakusho and Inuyasha openings air originally, and they are airing the Yu Yu Hakusho and G Gundam openings on SVES. I think there is some other reasoning behind it, probably because now due to the Cards being the promos there is more room for an intro or something like that. I think one of the mods would have a better answer though. Oh and

Return Of Lupin III- A-.

So the Lupin III intro is here to stay, WS still likes to confuse the hell out of me.

YuYu's is sung in english and WS doesn't control SVES.

I agree with your grade of the first episode though! http://members.aol.com/kimminakochan/chicken.gif

Ladies and gentleman, the Lupin OP is here to stay!!!!!!

Of course, it'd be nice to take out the Lupin the 3rd logo from before the title screen (it didn't appear in Monday's and Tuesday's episodes) since it looks painfully out of place, but we all know WS isn't going to take the time to edit that out of 20-some odd episodes. Ah well. Here's hoping that the OP's will be here for the show's next run, whenever that is.

Well if you want to be technical, but the point is there's more of a reason they're not showing the openings to Inuyasha and Trigun because they're in Japanese. Probably because even with the promos they're still to long to be on AS.
Artemis
06-05-2003, 12:23 AM
Trigun's OP is instrumental.

"Grogg did a masterful job of framing us" is my guess. Espcially sinc you can hear the F before the bleep.

that's what it was. except for the "Grogg" part.

It's "framing". I've seen the actual episode before, plus I have an ear for making those things out.

And so begins Kagome's 'Jealous-Violent-Selfish Boyfriend' rumor with her friends. Poor Hojo, sometimes I feel sorry for the guy especially when Kagome gets with him just to spite Inu Yasha.

Miroku stomping on Inu Yasha's injured back was a great bit, but Shippo's transformation into Kagome and 'flirting' with Inu Yasha is just priceless! I crack up everytime I see or think about it. Poor Inu Yasha and his mangled feelings.

Well, tommorow we get to see Naraku's cool miasma...thing and Inu Yasha's slow-motion-floating-through-sky-with-hair-blowing-in-wind scene, not to mention the graceful landing.

Also, I'm keeping my eye out for 'Change the World', or dare I say 'I Am', now that Lupin's OP has aired.

Let me dream...

Sorry, but that's not really going to happen. They may be airing the Lupin opening, but that dosen't mean they'll air the Inuyasha one. Oh well, you keep on dreaming.
