7) Asadora- Current series from the legendary Naoki Urasawa about a young girl living in post-WWII Japan who becomes an airplane pilot. Also there might a kaiju lurking in the background. Not as immediately engaging as Monster or Pluto, but Urasawa is a master at (1/2)
Finished the Dai finale. Ending was a little shaky but that was still a solid way for it to go out. The show slowed down a bit in the final inning, but on the whole this is up there with YYH and HxH 2011 as one of the actual best adaptations of a Shonen Jump title. Hell of a show
@Crunchyroll And my heart hurts from seeing you guys not only refuse to sit down with SAG-AFTRA, but stealth drop the Mob Psycho s3 dub so you can avoid dealing with angry comments about replacing Kyle McCarley. I know you guys are better than this
I appreciate how film debate has suddenly become a staple of modern shonen
@Crunchyroll Cool this is starting early. What would be even cooler is you guys sitting down to work something out with SAG-AFTRA #JustAMeeting
My only fear for these ports is that they savvy up and re-translate all these glorious radar doding/hilariously awkward translation bits from the BN games. They'd better still be there dammit
This week's new Shonen JUMP series is Earthchild. I'd heard this was supposed to be a romance series of some kind so I was surprised how fast the first chapter moved but uh...it has a pretty wild twist and I don't wanna spoil this one. All I'll say is it has my attention
So because I thought the meme going around kind of shortchanged some of the other series it mentioned, and also just because I'm me, I revised the "things you can learn from shonen" thing.
I stand by these takes as being mostly serious...mostly
@MrAJCosplay Another good one is Joseph Joestar from JJBA Battle Tendency. Tomokazu Sugita's Joseph was basically his Gintoki with a bit more suavness to it and sounded very cool and masculine while still being very campy and comedic where needed. Ben Diskin's on the other hand (1/2)
