How's it going lurkers? Did you have a chance to watch Toonami's promo for the finale?
Hellsing Ultimate OVA's 9 & 10 Finale Promo (2014)
Last night, I re-watched both HellsingUltimate OVA's 9 and 10 on Adult Swim's Toonami block. Before the network premiered both Hellsing Ultimate OVA's, I was able to YouTube them last week.
You
may be wondering, "Why did you watch OVA's 9 and 10 again, when you already saw them?"
Normally, I stream Anime online in Japanese and I re-watch them in
English Dub on TV as a refresher. I noticed that Adult Swim removed
Alucard's childhood rape scene.
Last week when I
watched the 9th OVA, the rape scene was very subtle compared to the
corpse rape that Seras Victoria's mother endured.
Her mother's
corpse rape scene was grislier and more graphic than Alucard's childhood rape. Adult
Swim removing that scene really did not surprise me.
Considering that Adult Swim is a bundled network on Cartoon Network, the Hellsing/Hellsing Ultimate franchise was bound to be censored.
This especially applies for rape scenes, since this franchise no longer premieres on a premium channel like STARZ. That being said, I won't waste time ranting about Adult Swim's Toonami censoring Hellsing Ultimate.
I'm
still reeling over the fact that the "Toonami" Team did NOT buy ALL 10 OVA's
for Hellsing Ultimate from the start!
What purpose did it serve for Jason DeMarco and his brainwashed sycophants to only buy 8/10 OVA's before premiering the whole series?
DeMarco and his sycophantic Toonami crew always look like clowns with their highly
syndicated acquisitions and their so-called "Toonami" block. At
least Adult Swim is premiering the Hellsing Ultimate finale.
Will all 3 prequels of Hellsing: The Dawn premiere, sooner or later?
That's a burning question fellow Hellsing/Hellsing Ultimate fans would like to know.
How's it going my gumdrops? OMG! 2 weeks ago, I joined Adult Swim's forum.
By no means am I stranger to belonging to a forum. Not that I was expecting a
welcoming committee, but the posters on that forum are fucking
ridiculous.
Posters of that ilk validate my reasons for NOT uploading a forum (by using
an app) to It's Not All Gumdrops & Unicorns. Adult
Swim's posters are just as rude and obnoxious as rude YouTube posters.
The posters nitpick
the shit out of the most trivial bullshit, are EXTREMELY hateful, and judgmental
of people they just meet.
Some Adult Swim posters have been
civil and welcoming. The rest are
rude, antagonistic, accusatory (some accused me of being a troll),
pompous ass posters. There is 1 poster in
particular, who is a complete know-it-all. I was informed that he was
banned numerous times for his douchebaggery.
He has the
tendency to be condescending and act like he is putting posters in their
places YET he does NOT know the difference between "then" and "than" in
a sentence.
It's "rather THAN." NOT "rather then."
While
that same poster is so busy trying to "challenge" other posters, he
should challenge himself by studying Basic English. Here is where it
gets better: He automatically assumed, that...
1) I had nothing else better to do or watch than Adult Swim.
2)
I was "throwing tantrums" and happen to be "more sexist" than I claim
both Cartoon Network and Adult Swim to be with my opposing views.
3) He went as far as to drag Barbie into an argument out of thin air.
Wow!
Seriously? Talk about a major joke. It is a good thing I was unallowed
to use Cristina Scabbia's (from Lacuna Coil) doll as my avatar.
I always
love whenever people declare a war on Barbie. Being
female and liking anything with feminine qualities is blasphemous!
The
female gender is forbidden from having beauty, brains, goals,
accomplishments, a career, etc.
Considering that I am "sexist" and all,
why is that same dipshit posting in my thread?
Obviously,
he is someone without a life of his own, if all he can do is instigate
with everyone. That trollish poster is like a terrible rash, that won't
leave.
Last night, there was another instigator in
my Adult Swim thread. She psychoanalyzed and nitpicked my username. What a bitch.
My username served no relevance to the discussion I was trying to have with other
posters.
This included her assumptions, that I
didn't think the female audience should watch Shonen and Seinen Action
Anime.
I had already addressed this issue in a previous thread, but some
continue to misunderstand.
I NEVER said I had
anything against the female audience watching Shonen and Seinen Action
Anime. I have watched my fair share as a woman.
However, watching Anime
specifically meant for the female audience would be a nice break from
always watching male-centric Anime.
Shonen and
Seinen Action Anime are specifically for the male audience. I feel some
Shojo and Josei Anime titles should be added to Adult Swim.
In addition
to the last topic, I mentioned that having the "Toonami" branding on
Adult Swim, limits the Anime genre to only Action Animation.
Anime
in Japan is NOT limited to Shonen and Seinen Action yet in America,
this is the only gender demographic Anime companies want to market, which is
specifically meant for the male audience.
Basically, companies marketing Anime in America is a Boys Only Club and purposely want to pander to Incels.
Shojo and
Josei Anime supposedly do poorly in American sales. I believe this is
because the female audience is barely acknowledged. Also, some male Anime viewers REGARDLESS of their sexual orientationDO watch Shojo and Josei Anime.
American
companies and the media with their political propaganda brainwashed
American Anime fans into believing, that everything is "gender neutral."
In reality, everything is NOT "gender neutral."
We are watching Japanese Entertainment, which belongs to Japan and is a part of Japan's culture.
They
are labeled Shonen, Seinen, Shojo, and Josei for specific reasons.
Shonen and Seinen Anime are specifically meant for the male audience.
Shojo
and Josei Anime are specifically meant for the female audience.
Although,
it's not like heterosexual males and females as well as the GLBT
community don't watch each others Anime besides Shonen and Seinen
Action.
Speaking of Seinen Action Anime, 2
weeks ago, 1 male poster complained about Black Lagoon. The series is
specifically meant for men, but it mostly has women as leading
characters in a male Action Anime.
I love watching Black Lagoon
regardless of the characters' genders and regardless of its gender demographic.
After the
Hellsing Ultimate OVA's premiere next month on Swimnami, he will most
likely complain about Sir Integra and Seras Victoria. Those are 2 female
characters with leading roles in Hellsing.

Hellsing Ultimate happens to be another Seinen Action Anime, which is
Black Lagoon's replacement. The Hellsing franchise is Seinen Horror
Action.
Overall, my main point is that Shonen and Seinen Action fans are not the only Anime demographics in existence.
There
are Comedy, Romance, Mystery, Supernatural, Horror, etc. Anime for both
genders. People with little knowledge about Anime only know what the
networks expose them to on TV. They are mostly exposed to Shonen Action.
I
understand why Adult Swim's forum has such a high turnover with posters
in general.
The slightest topic about anything gets derailed into an
argument and veteran posters are notorious for running away new posters.
Who wants to deal with that unnecessary division and dysfunction?
I have too many things to do in very little time. I thought it would be fun to join another entertainment forum again, but apparently I was wrong.
