Does Disney Plus include the two-part episode that was pulled from syndication after the Oklahoma City bombing that explains the transition between the Lucky and Miranda episodes?

EDIT: Wikipedia says it does. Nice.

ON THIS WEEKā€™S EPISODE OF reffi watches cartoons sometimes

our hero watched the entirety of bleach in solidarity with a friend who wanted to watch thousand year blood war!! what a fucking name for an anime, holy shit!! the friend is still in the soul society arc, about 30 episodes in! reffi has been ā€œtaken for a rideā€ here!!

donā€™t make his mistake!! bleach is so boring - even with a guide to avoid fillers - it might kill you!! holy shit thousand year blood war is fire tho. maybe read a synopsis of the first series. maybe justā€¦ glance over the synopsis. even that might be too boring. crazy how good soul society arc is before it spends the next 300 episodes doing absolutely nothing. well, except being swag. it is a very swag show, Iā€™ll give it that. you kind of justā€¦ watch it stand there, and admire it, while its loosely adorned clothes blow (in a poorly animated way) in the breeze. nice.

(there are actually a lot of thoughts here that may get expounded on at some point, watching an Entire Shounen was inspiring in a really strange way)

reffi is also a little bitter no one told him jujutsu kaisen slaps so hard!! what the shit is that obvious conspiracy about?? also, why is it so similar to chainsaw man?? are Bad Circumstance Dirtbag Protags just, like, in now? itā€™s like the My Hero Academia to chainsaw manā€™s One Punch Man (bit of a strained analogy considering how much academia blows but otherwise it holds up)

NEXT WEEK

the first OP for this kicks so much ass imo

oh my god yes, thank you, I was mildly embarrassed by how much I was listening to it so I just played it on solo drives and such

thought I was crazy. the first ED owns too

both the second OP and ED are way way worse, guessing their mildness was intended to counter the escalation of the show but it didnt land for me

oh, a warning, havenā€™t seen this show mentioned in the thread: if youā€™re like me and sometimes google ā€œHOT NEW ANIMESā€ you might get ā€œRising of the Shield Heroā€ recommended

do not, under any circumstances, watch this show. Iā€™ve taken this bullet for you all and please respect my sacrifice. I watched four episodes of this in some kind of fugue self destructive state.

people are mean to the protag and he gets a bad weapon draw so he decides to lean into being a bad boy and purchases a child slave. we see heā€™s actually a Good Dude though when heā€¦ feeds her food she likes?? itā€™s also implied heā€™s going to fuck her eventually which is fine because a bartender alludes to ā€œthose beast girls age real fastā€. one dude is made out to be a jerk later because he frees her from her slave bonds to Secretly Good Boy Shield Man against her will. I mean, I guess he couldā€™ve at least asked first, right??

I just kept watching it I couldnā€™t look away

itā€™s truly bizarre how many reviews there are of this show out there that mention none of this, in fact they claim the show might be triggering toward ā€œpeople whoā€™ve been bulliedā€

Iā€™m still watching Sailor Moon and nearly at R. I was getting a little tired of the rainbow crystals and six evil monster routine. I kept thinking, do they even go to school anymore? Does Usagi still have a family? I miss the loser teacher. I relate so much to her.

That arc ended in a pretty big twist. Ironically, the newest arc is putting the characters back into their daily lives and it feels a bit like the first episodes again. Part of why I started watching was so that I could have an answer to ā€œwhoā€™s your favorite Pretty Guardian?ā€" Iā€™m leaning Jupiter.

my guy you ainā€™t seen shit yet

he gets a bird who is also a little girl and she gets a slave crest too

the part where, for saving the kingdom, he gets to legally rename the princess Bitch (or Whore, i forget which) and the king Trash

the other heroes are comically, perhaps maliciously incompetent

IIRC according to spoilers for the web novel he and his raccoon slave/warrior become gods and lovers

also I donā€™t know where you were but a lot of the discourse with the show with sane normal people was a lot of ā€œslavery huhā€

as a brown person I canā€™t say I approve of the wholeā€¦ slave thing, but I do enjoy idiotic fantasy trash

in season 2 they kill a giant tortoise whose earthly representation is the not-Chinaā€™s emperorā€™s concubine and then do a Dark Souls invasion
