That was fast.

>>137378993
funimation is on the production committee I think
they sure are desperate, Dimension W is just OK it certainly isn't great.
Didn' Funi help create this show? Makes sense.
>>137379038
Toonami isn't known for airing masterpieces, anon. Didn't their lineup last year include KLK, InuYasha, and AgK?
>>137379348
Kill la Kill saved anime.
>>137378993
It was the OP. All the americans want that hype.
>>137379373
Kill La Kill saved my life.
>>137378993
I like the manga and wish this didn't skip over certain points.
>>137379411
DON'T
>>137379427
Watching it with /a/ was pretty fun.
>>137379411
Same desu
>>137379406
Why doesn't Toonami have King Gainer then?
>>137378993
>Mira not voiced by Reina Ueda
A lot of her charm will be gone in the dub.
>>137379406
It's gonna get butchered to hell and back
Episodes 1 and 2 were good, the rest ranged from mediocre to shit. Not enough knife and wire action like Darker than Black's.
Will we get that hilarious dub like Dagashi and Nozaki too?
Are we getting an actual plot soon? The last arc kind of sucked.
Wow, that was really fast
so when will opm come on toonami?
This show is so disappointing after the first two episodes.
>>137378993
>>137379038
Why is Funimation in the production committee in the first place?
>>137379715
>>137382690
We got your point the first time, samefag. Too bad not many agree with you tho.
>>137382699
I have no clue myself but I think Funi is looking for success in anime that seem like they'd appeal to a Western audience. Maybe them being on the production committee means they're guaranteed the streaming license and are able to get the show onto something like AS faster. I'm sure that includes whatever pertains to releasing BDs and possibly merch. Just my guess, though.
>>137378993
It has that one interesting chapter where the girl gets decapitated by a car to save a kid, but other than that it is an awful series.
>>137378993
Stupid question, but I'm going to assume this shit will be dubbed?
Fuck, who would honestly want to watch it without the Jap voices for this.
>inb4 Steve Blum
>>137379038
Fuck you Dimension W is really fun to watch and it's refreshing to have a male protagonist that isn't some beta as fuck, teenage twink.
>>137378993
AOTS getting more exposure is always good
>>137382848
Watch Asthetica of a Rogue Hero for the most alpha protagonist in an anime since Daimou
>>137382952
Too bad everything else in the show is shit
>>137382952
>search Asthetica of a Rogue Hero
>it's a low budget harem animated by ARMS
>>137382715
>tho
So this anime was made with both the American and Japanese audiences in mind?
>>137383127
you're gay, go watch Hetalia or Diabolik Lovers anon
>>137383239
Only the idea to make it available to western audiences early, the manga author probably didnt have the western in mind but sci-fi stories have general appeal by default
What's the point of robot doesn't have the same voice?
what did you expect?
funimation funded this shit just to appeal to westerners
too bad they will cut out the best parts
>>137379348
>Didn't their lineup last year include KLK
you mean in 10 years nostalgiafags will be saying why is modern anime so shit, why can't japan make more good anime like klk?
>>137382699
Japan isn't making enough cowboy bebop/darker than black type shows, so funimation is funding more anime like that because it sells in the west
>>137383541
I wish people stopped hating DL, the first season should be a must watch to see how you done proper horror comedy in anime.
>>137385103
>horror comedy
>>137379406
I just watched the OP. Is this show really good or the OP is lying again?
>>137385470
Best genre or greatest genre?
>>137378993
Who gives a shit about dubs?
>>137385849
Toonami tends to pick the handful of dubs that don't completely suck. Bebop, FLCL, Geass, KlK, Space Dandy and Titan all had really well done dubs.
>>137385849
I like variety, watching only jap dub is boring and sometimes I want a change. Bad thing they don't make dubs on my language anymore.;_;
>>137379348
It has parasyte, dbz kai, samurai champloo, one piece, Naruto shippuden, and agk. I can't wait until they get rid of some of this shit and add another horrible anime like divine gate I would have a nice laugh.
>>137385011
>12:30am
>Implying they will have to censor robutt
>>137387406
You're forgetting Funi is headquartered in Bible-belt-burgerland.
Murder, torture and casual racism is ok, so long as no skin is showing.
>>137385763
op was lying again
the ed, tho, is 100 percent accurate
>>137385044
>Boohoo I hate these future kids begging for more westernized action shows
>Oh boy can't wait for Darker Than Black Roger Smith Gaiden to get more exposure in the west
Double standards much?
>>137387606
If they were going to censor shit, they would have done it in the simulcasts too.
>>137386200
>I like variety, so sometimes i eat shit
that's all I'm hearing from you
>funi will probably sit on the Kekkai Sensen license until it expires without putting it on TV just like Darker Than Black
>meanwhile the show they paid money for will probably just flop because it's not actiony enough
>>137382699
To compete with CR.
>>137387676
when did I ever say I wanted Dimension W to get popular?
I actually like this show, I may turn on my television for once just to watch this
>>137385950
>Geass, KLK, SnK
>good dubs
Holy fuck kill you're self
>>137387921
I-I thought the geass dub was pretty ok
>>137386452
>Clinkenbeard
Heh.
Has Mira plugged her tail into anything yet? It's clearly a cable for charging or interfacing with machines but I don't think that's been shown.
so far it's just a tail for tail's sake.
>>137385950
Yes, they had good dubs, but dubs standards. Meaning they were a little less shit then usual. So instead of being a colossal turn, they were just a giant turd.
>>137388080
Didn't she use it on the number coil last episode?
>>137388080
Delicious dubs.
>>137378993
Welp /a/ has to outright hate this show now. It's been real folks.
>>137388879
/a/ tends to hate all the good stuff.
>>137385044
so just like FLCL?
I can't complain about more robutt
KUROI REIKISHI
>>137378993
Looks like this show is flopping on Stalker. Poor studio 3hz, everything they make sells terribly. Maybe Toonami bux will save them.
>>137387884
Kekkai Sensen is garbage anyway. >>137388913
But Dinension W isn't good so what's the issue?
>>137391617
funimation is funding it, so I don't think they care
>People actually watch Toonami
>2015+1
How does it feel to be lower tier than streaming?
>>137382848
>it's refreshing to have a male protagonist that isn't some beta as fuck, teenage twink.
There are several series like that, though.
>>137382699
Basically what other anons said: To find anime to appeal to Westerners. That and Dimension W probably fit into DeMarco's favourite/ideal anime best fit for the block.
Toonami is dead either way.
>>137382834
>Stupid question, but I'm going to assume this shit will be dubbed?
To answer your stupid question with a smart reply: Yes, Dimension W, like other Funi series is simuldub.
The cast is:
Kyoma Christopher R. Sabat
Albert Eric Vale
Mira Jad Saxton
Loser J. Michael Tatum
Mary Stephanie Young
Koorogi Josh Grelle
Shido Jeremy Schwartz
Kids who are new to anime are going to get a sexy robot to masturbate to. Pretty amazing. Imagine going back to being 13 and being able to learn about hentai and doujins in this day and age. Not sure my dick could survive.
Back in my day we had to use 28.8k modems and it would take us hours or days to even download a single anime episode. Kids these days don't know how good they have it.
>>137382848
>it's refreshing to have a male protagonist that isn't some beta as fuck, teenage twink
People say this every fucking season, I swear
>>137392452
Since 2003
>>137383239
Not likely. On Funimation behalf, they search for anime that will appeal to a Westerner audience. While Nips are conscious of their overseas audience, I doubt they think "Let's make an anime to appeal to a global audience. Fuck yeah, world domination!" Unless official staff said so during interviews.
>>137385103
>to see how you done proper horror comedy in anime.
M8. That'd be Ghost Stories.
>>137392418
>watching Space Cobra on VHS
God tier fap
>>137385950
>>137387850
Not all dubs are shit anon. Stop being a contrarianfag.
>>137387659
It's more slice of life then? Good, I like SoL, will watch it.
>>137391861
>implying anyone watches Toonami to watch new anime
>>137387606
Well is the show at least good?
>>137385950
>Bebop, FLCL, Geass, KlK, Space Dandy and Titan all had really well done dubs.
>>137393676
>implying the Bebop and Dandy dubs aren't great
