Woohoo, official off-topic thread!

You don't find the ongoing subplot about Sasuke getting raped by pedo-snakes to be mature BR?

Why do you guys want Boondocks? Again, that crap shows up on weeknights which is a total of five days and saturday is only one day each week. Boondocks has had enough air time. It can go piss off.

Yeah not seeing Durarara on there is starting to upset me and it should replace FMA 'cause again, FMA has been suffering a heavy case of reruns and Durarara is still fresh and there were obviously gonna be new episodes for it.

Where is Kekkaishi now all of a sudden? Last I checked, Kokuboro was not the last arc for the series. The show has potential.

The animes are move 'out there' with the boobage and blood, but shows like YJ and JL had more mature themes to it.

Themes do not matter. Winnie the Pooh has mature themes but it isn't used to appeal to young adults. It's the presentation that decides that, for better or for worse.

@Neph: Nope. After the forest the Sasuke fear shiz got replaced with "Like with everything else, Ill use this to fight Itachi. Less in part 2 where he bends Orochi over and shoves a lightning fist up his ass.

@Aura: MLP is now a young adult show, so that kinda means nothing too. Themes, action, violents and killing things. Should be enough to make the cut.

Wasnt being a jerk 'ere, Im serious. **** Bleach. It has good fight scenes and character elements but nothing else, maily that wafer thin plot. Its everywhere and overated.

It is? Dude, DBZ had more violence than YJ probably will ever had and it was still aired as, well, more or less a kids show. Newds and cursing are all that matter. I didn't make the rules. :T

It's currently ended, so as far as being everywhere, well, not for long. And I rarely hear good things about Bleach anymore so I'd hardly call it overrated. Personally, I always found FMA overrated based on what I've seen of it(mostly cause I think the ending is complete bullshit). 313

If anything that'd show the violence minus maturity are more aimed at a younger audience that don't follow plots too well. Neh.

Thats mainly because us people and our brother sites mostly think the same. Many still hold it as legendary. Like a moden DBZ without the awesomness.
FMA is a great anime overall, not the best but it holds its own.

FMA: Brotherhood is awesome. Much better than the first one.

Toonami should air Fate Zero. Just so more people get to watch that anime.

In a way, Bleach is kinda legendary, if only for being a part of that whole Holy Shonen Trinity, though the one out of them that has the best chance of achieving the same amount of respect as DBZ would be One Piece(which is really more like Dragonball).

I think OP's problem was that it has a more animey style (facedrops and stuff) with the series taking a little while to kick things off. Doubt many non-standard anime fans would get into it right off the bat.

I got into it via the dub, though I did stop around Skypeia.

Keep in mind, that was the 4Kids dub lol.

Ditto with dub.. oh wow just remembering the 4kids dub.. but we're more into the anime junk.

Gonna miss House :/

If MLP ever showed on actual television, it would be played right after iCarly on Nickelodeon. On television, a shows maturity is rated by its subject matter, not its themes.

I personally thought that Bleach is legendary becasue it was the only one out of the HST that still has it's show aired in the US; or to sound less xenophobic, is popular enough to still be aired and popular outside of Japan.

Though I think OP has the most potential out of the 3, nobody outside of Japan appears to give two shits about it. Naruto is the best marketed out of the three IMHO

And.....I still can't see the appeal of MLP asside from Tara Strong and Rarity sharing Roberta's(Black Lagoon) VA if I recall.

Was just a call on its audience.

Except MLP generally had more mature subject matter then 90% of the crap that serves as children's shows right now. mmm

Which isn't actually saying much, but still.

Let's Peter Griffin outline political beliefs.

Ignores the fact that Peter Griffin is legally retarded.

I love you Family Guy writers. You amuse me so.

Why would I skip the best parts of the comic?
