Cartoon Sunday: Watch Mojo's Anime Villains Countdown

How's it going lurkers? Recently, I learned that Toonami is replacing JoJo's Bizarre Adventure with Attack On Titan on April 22nd. Next Saturday night, Toonami will air the final 2 episodes of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Season 1. This means Tokyo Ghoul will be preempted.

As soon as Attack On Titan's 2nd season ends, I really hope Toonami returns to premiering JoJo's Bizarre Adventure's 2nd season, Stardust Crusaders.

I must admit that I am automatically biased to watch JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders. It gives me a reason to listen to The Bangles' "Walk Like An Egyptian" as the Anime's ending theme song. Talk about '80s nostalgia.

Speaking of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Dio Brando made Watch Mojo's Top Anime Villains. Apparently, Watch Mojo loves doing Top Anime Villains countdowns.

There are at least 4 of these countdowns made about Anime villains. Some countdowns are repeats for each type of villain.

So far, Dio Brando from the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure franchise made Watch Mojo's Top Anime Villains at least twice. 

Meanwhile, characters such as Lord Orichimaru from Naruto, Light Yagami from Death Note, and other Shonen Anime characters made the Top Anime Villains countdowns several times or more.

Judging by the looks of it, Watch Mojo tends to favor Death Note's Light Yagami as a major villain. 

Even though Light was a villain, Dio Brando should've made the countdowns just as much, if not MORE than him.

Dio is as deplorable of a character as Light was because Dio was evil from the very beginning of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. Light on the other hand, became evil AFTER obtaining notebooks from Shinigami.

Light Yagami originally had good intentions in the beginning but gradually developed a serious God Complex and let the power of executing criminals overtake him.

Cartoon Sunday: WatchMojo's Top 10 Horror Based Anime

How's it going lurkers? Last night, I watched the premiere of the Seinen Action Anime, One Punch Man, on Adult Swim. Judging by the premiere, it was a WTF? Moment for me. 

Other than the fact, that it somewhat reminded me of Dragon Ball Z meets Bleach, I don't know what else to make of One Punch Man. The premiere went over my head. 

It does not seem like this will be an Anime that I will run to my TV for and watch every Saturday night. Like I already expected, the Toonami sycophants on Adult Swim overhyped One Punch Man.

I still say that Tokyo Ghoul could've been Parasyte -The Maxim's- replacement. Even though I have yet to marathon Tokyo Ghoul (I only watched the episode 1), I found this Seinen Horror Anime to be more intense than Parasyte.

Speaking of Tokyo Ghoul, I CANNOT  believe that it has already been an entire year, since Chiller TV debuted their Anime Wednesday block, only to cancel it within its first 3 weeks. During commercial breaks, Tokyo Ghoul was advertised more so than Chiller TV's block, Anime Wednesday.

This was no thanks to the bratty middle schoolers and ingrates on Facebook and other social media sites. They griped about a PG-13-rated Horror network airing Horror Anime on a HORROR channel.

It was already outrageous that Chiller TV took almost ZERO initiative to promote their own block for both Horror and Anime fans. This is excluding the fact that most Americans don't possess a satellite package like Direct TV or Dish Network.

There were 12-13-year-old middle school boys on Chiller TV's social media pages, who condescended to fellow Horror Anime fans and myself by telling us to go watch Toonami. That was ridiculous. 

Not to sound like an old lady, but their pompous asses should've either been in bed at midnight, or they should've shut the hell up and watched something else. Instead they ruined a block, which had some potential.

The Anime fans from Adult Swim (mainly the bratty Toonami incels) exacerbated problems by them bitching about Is This A Zombie? being aired on Anime Wednesday. They acted as if Is This A Zombie? was THE ONLY ANIME on the entire block, when there were 3 others to watch.

Could Chiller TV have bought better Horror Anime?

Yes, the igorami in charge of the network really should have. However, I mostly blame Chiller TV for their lack of advertising, considering that the network is owned by NBC Universal. Also, when there are ingrates continuously nitpicking ONLY 1 SERIES the entire time online, it does not help generate MORE viewers to an already niche audience.

Since we're mostly on the topic of Horror Anime, I thought I would share WatchMojo's countdown to their Top 10 Horror Based Anime. Some of WatchMojo's choices I have already seen within the last 4 years or so. 

In fact, some of them have been already shared in Cartoon Sunday blogs over these last 2 years as well. There are a few listed on the countdown from the late '90s to early 20st Century, which I have never seen or heard of until now. The more I think about it, tons of Horror Anime exist and YET  this particular genre gets very little recognition. 

Most Anime and Manga licensors, publishers, and especially ignorant marketers at Adult Swim only want to dumb down and pander to mostly teenage boys and impressionable man-children, who love the cliche supehero stories. Anyway, here is WatchMojo's top 10 picks for Horror Anime.
