Yeah Kazuo Umezz = Kazuo Umezu. Not sure why he gets credited both ways. I haven't read Orochi yet it's on my to read pile (with a couple of Ito books).

It's very horny, but I will for sure watch the next episode. Really dreading the weekly releases, though.

not sure first season will get there

but there will be a character only in underwear in almost every scene

Pretty sure they won't. The manga just wrapped up with that.

It's very everything. You'll see as it goes.

Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L.

I watched first episode of Dandadan... that was just awesomeness from start to end! I hope it keeps up like that :w00t:

 

I'm wondering if they follow Turbo Granny into the tunnel, so Obscure-Kun can get his weenie back and lift the curse, now that they escaped the banana obsessed aliens 🤔

I ended up getting the Dandadan manga. Finished the 2nd yesterday, about to start the 3rd maybe today. On the one hand, nice, on the other hand, I wonder how much of this will be in the s1 episodes.

So that's four people who like Dandadan here. Does that mean we can start the apocalypse now or do we need a fifth rider? I forgot the rules tbh.

couldn't appreciate this song at all despite it seem to be very popular among older anime fan

always have terrible taste in music so it is not surprising

No, the music in Bubblegum Crisis is super lame. Not, like, offensive or anything, but...I think the style of music is just not for me.

My impression of our Four Riders of the Apocalypse was that it was more to do with the riders being of very different tastes rather than there just being four. Like, if you, Amentep, myself, and Gorth all really liked something, I think that'd be sufficient to initiate the apocalypse. Maybe this would qualify, but I'm not sure.

How I have existed fills me with horror. For I have failed in everything - spelling, arithmetic, riding, tennis, golf; dancing, singing, acting; wife, mistress, whore, friend. Even cooking. And I do not excuse myself with the usual escape of 'not trying'. I tried with all my heart.

In my dreams, I am not crippled. In my dreams, I dance.

Well we've already got Gorth and I in there and my taste is at least different enough from Sarex and Lexx (see Villeneuve's Dune) so I think we've got at least 3 out of 4. Come on folks, let's end the world.

I have a hunch that we are fairly safe, because if either @majestic or @Bartimaeus would enjoy Dandadan then the end times are upon us anyway. Besides, I am not sure if we wouldn't need IC for that, being one of the originals. :yes:

No mind to think. No will to break. No voice to cry suffering.

Dandadan (or Dan Da Dan?), episode 1, The End of Dandadan. Because there's currently only one episode, which I am certain will remain true for the foreseeable future. I wonder what percentage of this episode was taken up by either of the main characters screaming, yelling, babbling, or whining, because I watched the whole episode, and it sure felt like a lot. I'm just never going to jive with shows that endeavour to be all-out assaults on my senses, even if they have other good qualities - I now have a headache after watching this, and that kind of makes most everything else meaningless.

@PK htiw klaw eriF I would still take this as a plus one to the riders of the apocalypse.
