Me: “Is this Big O?”

It is.

I always loved the mystery that this show managed to capture when I was a kid. Especially catching an episode here or there on cable TV. It often meant missing key plot points or not understanding how everything fit together. Watched it through as an adult and I still really like it. I won’t spoil the ending, but it’s one of the most ridiculous things I’ve seen. Not that it’s over the top, but the absurdity of it is something I still reference to this day.

Also the phone ringing to tell you the name of the next episode is burned into my brain

I wasn’t sure how I would feel about this show, but it will hit different after the loss of Toriyama.

Hey, kid!

This Venn diagram should just be a circle. Implying that the guys aren’t part of the homies? Seems wrong to me

My favorite Halifax fun fact: In 1917, a munitions ship exploded in Halifax Harbor. To commemorate the event, the City Council created ‘Splodey, the Halifax explosion mascot.

In addition, each public broadcast of Shaggy’s “Mr. Boombastic” is followed by a moment of silence

Yeah I was surprised as well. Watching YYH again, the similarities are amusing. I like trying to guess the Nen types of the YYH characters. Yusuke has gotta be an emitter. I like to think Koenma showed him the spirit gun just to save him wasting time trying to figure out his own type. Kuwabara might be a transmuter or a conjuror depending on how his sword works. The show isn’t 100% consistent on whether he can drop it or not so who knows. Kurama is a manipulator for sure since he controls plants. Hiei might be an enhancer

Yeah the 2011 version with the Greed Island, Chimera Ants, and Hunter Association Election arcs. I’ve never seen the older one. I love the old school animations but it only goes up to Yorknew City and the Underground Auction arc so I’ve never actually taken the time to see how different it is even though this is probably my 5th watch of the 2011 version

I recently finished Spy Family, which I really loved, and then I started another rewatch of Hunter X Hunter and I only have about 20 episodes left. I realized at some point that the guy who wrote it also wrote YuYu Hakusho, another favorite of mine, so I started a rewatch of that too.

My One Piece first watch has been on pause for a bit. I did a hard grind all the way to Dressrosa but I haven’t started the arc yet because I was getting burned out
