    Anime Toys

    Honestly I've come across anime themed toys and collectibles in places like Barnes and Noble, Books-A-Million, 2nd and Charles, Target (they have some collectible sections now), Walmart, Meijer, Fye Records, Best Buy, Gamestop, Hot Topic and so on. Not to mention your local comic shops may be...

    TALKBACK - Steven Universe - Episodes 133-138 - [11/10 (Online) 12/15-12/29 (TV)]

    This hasn't been mentioned so far but rewatching Gemcation the whole Pearl talk seemed to have something revealing about Pearl. At first it seems she's just so consumed with grief about the whole Pink Diamond thing but upon closer inspection it seemed more like she had something going on with...

    "Steven Universe" News and Discussion Thread (Spoilers)

    Yeah, on the website and app the episode place holders are there but if you click on them nothing plays.

    Are Funimation and Crunchyroll's streaming services worth it?

    Honestly this whole discussion about to legitimacy of Crunchyroll and Funimations subs/dubs seems a little fishy. There's just some odd leaps in logic to support the stance that because someone has an issue with the translation or how a company started out they should automatically support...

    "Steven Universe" News and Discussion Thread (Spoilers)

    No. She's acting realistically like someone who just got kidnapped, watched her only friend be taken into space and is asking legitimate questions to why they could have not had an alternative when one was available. Yeah, Steven is being really insensitive acting like his decisions don't...

    "Steven Universe" News and Discussion Thread (Spoilers)

    I just want to point out it also seems pretty timely how Steven Universe's hiatus coincided with the increase of PR for OK KO! I'm actually kind of glad Steven's absence is giving breathing room for that show's fanbase to grow.

    "Steven Universe" News and Discussion Thread (Spoilers)

    I have to be honest that I kind of appreciate the breather from the show. It has more to do with the fandom and I felt this show needed a cool down period. I feel like with all the other shows that will be getting new episodes (Ducktales, Star, Voltron, OK KO etc...) during this period I’m kind...

    "Steven Universe" News and Discussion Thread (Spoilers)

    Yes, and I fixed it within a minute of my original posting, but quoting the original post left all the "spoiler" stuff seen on your last post.

    "Steven Universe" News and Discussion Thread (Spoilers)

    I'm going to spoiler tag this but I have a theory about how the upcoming episodes are going to be structured: Overall, it looks like we're getting another Bomb or special event. There's just too much going on in these episodes that weekly airings would suffice. Plus the episodes seem to be...

    Pokemon Sun and Moon Anime Discussion

    I think Light's example of using Digimon and Yu-gi-oh make the exclusion of Misty/Brock even more odd. Both Digimon and Yu-gi-oh didn't have to utilize characters that were not currently brand relevant but they understood the nostalgic value. It feels like the modern Pokemon anime if trying to...

    Toonami's 20th Anniversary Question: When did you first discover Toonami?

    I came in pretty much at the beginning right before Dragon Ball Z and Sailor Moon were added to the block. Suffice to say it was fun during my late college days to watch the dub "premieres" of Sailor Moon S/SuperS, Tenchi, Gundam Wing and so on. It was during the Anime Boom times so it was a...

    "Steven Universe" News and Discussion Thread (Spoilers)

    Okay the biggest indication is if the production of the show stopped. No matter how long CN is taking to make an "announcement" no one working on the show has neither confirmed/nor denied that the production has just completely stopped. Given the lead in time needed to produce episodes tells me...

    "Toonami" News & Discussion Thread

    Well if we're being honest not every series that reaches the States has to have Dragonball Z/Naruto level popularity and recognigtion. I appreciate that Adult Swim is giving this series another shot but I'm more happy that this has pretty much been a flagship title for Discotek and that they go...

    TALKBACK - Steven Universe - Episodes 124-128 - [5/8-5/11]

    So instead of just reviewing this set of episodes since this wrapped up Season 4 I wanted to discuss the overall season. A lot of fans seem to consider Season 4 the weakest season, which is an opinion I share but I wanted to go into depth about this. Looking at the previous seasons I think the...

    Why Doesn't Viz have a premium streaming service?

    As people have stated Viz's strength is their manga publishing. With anime Viz always manages to get titles that are extremely relevant at the time they are released: When they first started they were one of the few companies to dedicate themselves to a TV series with Ranma 1/2 when most...
