Even though I liked Casshern it seems sort of random on Toonami~ I got no complaints tho. only a few more days until the rebirth of Toonami is upon us.
From actual canonical material, Turn A uses ridiculous nanomachines with the Moonlight Butterfly that can stretch all the way to Jupiter. Kinda hard to avoid that, eh? The thing is also equipped with nukes. It has an I-Field that blocks out many beam attacks, making it extremely hard to touch. And if you do manage to destroy Turn A and kill its pilot? You didnāt. Turn Aās going to use its nanomachines to regenerate itself. And its pilot. And you think you can dodge Turn A since itās so big? Have fun when it starts teleporting beam shots. Right into your cockpit.
Thereās nothing in the Gundam universe thatās even 1/10th as powerful as Turn A. 00 Quanta is the closest it gets, and that thing would get destroyed by a full power Turn A.
On topic for Toonami, having Casshern Sins air on TV is pretty cool. Show is legit and has some great animation and artwork. Dunno about Deadman Wonderland since I never bothered to watch it.
I really wish CN got their funding back to normal so they could do more stuff like this

Turn A sounds pretty fucking stupid.
It was.
āDonāt worry weāll give it low health to balance it!ā
I CANāT CONTROL IT!!!
Honestly, Iām totally fine with the schedule, but I feel like they should have replaced ghost in the shell with a retro toonami anime, something from April 1 would have fit in just fine for now. Granted, I think they should extend the block the whole six hours with retro stuff after 3AM, I realize that the block has to succeed first.
Turn A is the only Super Robot in Gundam cannon (G gundam isnāt cannon, as far as I know).
Itās stupid fucking broken, but so is that one gundamn that can fucking turn into dust into 00.
Unicorn is looking kind of broken, too.
First, i said this before, there is a thread for you to post this in, now your the one derailing the thread. Second SRW would like to have a word with you. I know it can regenerate but you all act as if itās instant, its like DG cells, and the beam shots in the cockpit thing SRW cleared that up too, itās not as broken as you make it sound. anyone else want to quote me about Gundam stuff take it to the SRW threadā¦please.
@Austin_QED Unicorn is broken lolz, and G-Gundam is cannon.
Overall, yeah itās a good show. I think S1 is better than Gig because thereās was alot of politics-fueled shit going on (still a good season). Just donāt go into Gig expecting alot of action you got from S1. Really strong storylines including The Laughing Man Incident.
G Gundam wasnāt canon yeah (or some random Century timeline that nothing else happened). But what I wouldnāt do for another series like it.
i figure its something theyāre looking into
they already aired the original on adult swim but AO just started its run. so maybe after its complete in japan weāll see it here.
Ghost in the Shell anything is pretty fucking good, but they all offer something unique. I just recently started up Man Machine Interface and itās way different from the cop procedural of the first GitS.
The Gundam is pretty busted, but the series is one of the best in Gundam.
Iāll have to check it out. Iād like to watch a lot of the Gundamās Iāve missed out on over the years.
Ever caught 0800?
Even though Toonamiās Midnight Run had is censored, itās still a fantastic show that I put above Turn A gundam.
For me ranking wise Iād go
- War in the Pocket
- Turn A
- MS Team
- 0079
- ZZ
Iām in that rare minority of hating the fuck out of Zeta.
We sirā¦Think alike.
0800 is one of the oens I have not seen yet.
Iāve seen:
Wing (Who hasnāt?)
08th MS Team (My favorite)
G Gundam
gundam Unicorn (First episode only so far.)
I had hope for Unicorn, the first episode was baller, then I read the light novels. Shit is fucking stupid. Hoped the OVA would change things around, but nope still dumb as fuck. Pretty though.
