THEORY: Since the fax campaign failed, this whole thing was really Isayama's way of trying to get Adult Swim to bring back Metalocalypse. Actually as I recall, it's all because someone left a dang pig-pen gate open. That's the Butterfly Effect for you.

I've read that the long delayed 3rd game (which only happened after a crowd funding campaign) was a big disappointment to fans of the series and had basically no story advancement. Which is hard to believe since, based on the story we got in the show, the story in the first 2 games is pretty...

You're the only person who actually thinks that. I'm guessing you're not the one in your household paying for cable/streaming. My cable bill (before I cancelled it) was over 10 times (literally) what my Netflix bill was, and there were literally 2 stations I ever watched. Those 200,000 people...

In the seeker camp, Ozen, when telling them to avoid the other white whistles who were in the 5th layer, described Bondrewd as "an out an out reckless scoundrel" in her standard bemused tone of speaking. This rather, um, "understated" assessment can be read as one of 2 possibilities. Either...

Few more:

From Brittany Lauda's live tweets tonight:

A+'s all around for the cast, but especially Brittany Lauda's muffled squealing. Pretty sure that's what surgery with no anesthesia would sound like.

That's my point. One Piece anime adapts like 10-12 pages/episode in recent years. Probably why it can become unwatchable in the later stages of some arcs. So even though AoT usually had been doing 2-3 chapters/episode, it's not so bad doing 1 chapter/episode if the chapter's 45-50 pages...

Well you've read the last chapters so obviously I'll defer to your word about the pacing. Certainly AoT is quite a bit more meaty story-wise than your average One Piece chapter, so I can see them doing 1 chapter/episode. I definitely haven't had problems with pacing yet (at least not since...

I don't want them to ruin the pacing, which is a delicate balance and I feel one of the shining bright spots of this adaptation. They've basically set the gold standard in this department, especially as anime is (finally) moving away from the One Piece/Naruto style 50-episode-a-year model. For...

I am so effing done with this whole "The Final Season"... part one crap. It's bad enough when they do this in anime but they do it western TV shows and movies, too. If it's not the final run of episodes from the FINAL production cycle, IT'S NOT THE FINAL SEASON. They've made 17 episodes out...

Mikasa give zero f***s about the girl who idolized her. Thumbs up if you were hoping Jean blew Flock's head off. I'm praying, PRAYING that this ends with Mikasa having to make a decision on whether or not to kill Eren.

I've heard it's basically an early iteration of GTA style open world stuff (time management, running around an open map). Yeah, you're probably right that the story was an afterthought, which is what it's kind of feeling like in the show. Though oddly enough, like the game, I'm getting more...

I actually don't terribly mind the slow pace as they are doing a decent job with the world building, at least so far in the Hong Kong part. I like that they're incorporating a lot of different parts of the city and the people who live there (even if they all happen to be Kung Fu masters) as...

Where exactly is Hitch taking Annie? Maybe she's gonna finally make Annie get rid of all her old stuff in their room.
