How's it going lurkers? Last night, I watched Bleach and Naruto Shippuden on Swimnami Toonami. As I
watched Bleach, I noticed that Swimnami Toonami showed the entire season opening
like they normally did for these last 8 years.
After
it became 2014, Swimnami Toonami chose to remove the opening and go straight
to the episodes.
Throughout most of this month, Adult Swim did this to every show on their block EXCEPT for that God-awful flop, Space Dandy. If Space Dandy wasn't world premiering every weekend and had Adult Swim NOT invested in airing that Seinen Action Anime, I highly doubt they would've removed every show's opening. The block may have aired Bleach's opening, but it still did not air Naruto Shippuden's.
Although, Shippuden's ending was surprisingly aired. Adult Swim's viewers, including yours truly complained to them about removing every show's opening except Space Dandy's. This may seem trivial to most people, but Adult Swim has no respect for their viewers.
If Jason DeMarco and his loyal band of sycophants expect for Space Dandy to be their next cash cow like Bleach and Naruto, they are delusional.
Japan does not care for Space Dandy's Manga in particular. That is why its Anime contains ONLY 13 episodes compared to the typical 20 + episodes, if not perennial episodes like other Anime genres and sub-genres.
Just like the American audience dictates American shows and their seasons, the same applies to Japan and their audience.
Also, I noticed that Swimanmi created a new promo for their block. The latest promo is about the female characters on Swimnami, which is once again, more bullshit. The promo is a facade about "women's empowerment" by promoting physically strong yet emotionally weak female characters from Shonen Jump Action Anime on their block.
Last weekend, I e-mailed both Cartoon Network and Adult Swim my previously published Cartoon Sunday blog about them being sexist networks. Over the last few years, I've said this MANY times both on and offline, as well as famous filmmakers/screenwriters such as Kevin Smith.
Anytime Cartoon Network and Adult Swim will cancel any animation because they don't want to acknowledge their female demographic, that speaks volumes. We are only calling spades, "spades."
On a much lighter note for today, I stumbled upon 4 outtake videos from the SciFi Romance Adventure Anime, Noein. It used to air on The SciFi Channel's Ani-Monday block in 2007.
Noein is a very complex series to watch, which can be very confusing to casual viewers. It has themes consisting of time travel, quantum physics, and parallel universes. Only Haruka Kaminogi can control every parallel universe.
As you watch this dubbed trailer in English for a better understanding of Noein, please bear with me.
Noein Trailer (2015)
After studying Japanese and listening to other people mispronounce Japanese words, you will understand what I mean.
Even though I have not bought the DVD's for Noein (I only watched it on The Sci Fi Channel's Ani-Monday block, years ago), 4 disks consist of English dubbed bloopers by the voice acting cast are featured on the DVD's. I watched Noein's bloopers years ago and thought they were hilarious.
With that being said, here are Noein's outtakes for today's Cartoon Sunday.
1) Noein Outtakes Volume 1 (2006)
