I mean, would anyone have heard of Animal Crossing otherwise?
RoK #22
Uh... yeah. That's... um... an episode.
The evil Sith woman who groomed him from birth and has murdered thousands for literally no reason.
And everybody goes "Your punishment will be ruling the kingdom, and I guess fucking the child you spent the last fifteen years grooming."
Also, this time there are no downsides to the wish. He just gets it for free because... convenience?
That was when TOM was killed by the alien wasn't it? Then later the whole cyborg revamp event return.
He went on to write for Johnny Bravo
Dexter's Lab was formative for me and is also the primary reason I will always remember how to say "cheese omelette" in French.
Omelette du...fromage
God and am I remembering that Space Ghost legit had his own cheesy action show even before that or is my memory trying to link Harvey Birdman's backstory to his
No, he did.
But it's even weirder. It was "Space Ghost and Dino Boy In the Lost Valley." The two separate things were paired together, the latter just being your run of the mill Land of the Lost type deal... except the titular Dino Boy main character was voiced by Johnny Carson. No, not that Johnny Carson. A different one.
It would have probably been Avatar the Last Airbender but I was a late teen by then so while absolutely excellent my mind has already been mostly tempered by that point. Still had some good messages! They just didn't shape me as clearly.
You mean the dolts who kept needing to be rescued from peril?
I needs me Gundam fix!

So incredible. No to mention acts like Flying Lotus and Camu Tao (rip) got their big break via adult swim.
The thing to realize is that Toonami wasn't just a block - it had a style, an ethos. These interstitials were part of building that - they have a dreamlike quality, and asked viewers to engage. They also did shorts that were meant to be educational, but weren't pushy:

^also talks about the music stuff.
There was also a plot to Tom and the ship, which I thought was really cool. I was scared as shit for Tom when he got eaten by the goop or whatever. I was like 9 tho.
The liger Zero is one of the most iconic designs ever
Noooo I don't want to know that.
The writers were hella subtle though, like some of the stuff I only understand NOW subtle
Zoids kits were around in the 80s. I still have one in my closet.
Sure, but I don't know you could easily find them in America before the shows actually aired here. I remember seeing them (along with all the coolest power ranger toys) at local Asian markets near me but I didn't see a Gundam until well into the 2000s at places like target and Walmart. Could be a regional thing too.
Zoids has a lot of really strong designs, mechwise, and the liger zero is def up there

Corrected.
"Du" is a possessive indicator (either meaning "belonging to" or "coming from"). It's the French equivalent to the English word "of". To properly express the concept of a cheese-flavored omelet, you need a descriptive indicator, in this case "au". The proper translation of "cheese omelet" is "omelette au fromage".
What have we learned today, kids? That's right; cartoons are full of lies.
Du?
Du hast.
(Also, it isn't pronounced like "do". Well, the "d" is pronounced the same, but English people have enormous difficulty pronouncing the French "u". Like, I've never heard an Anglophone actually do it properly. I think the closest you pals come to is the "ew" sound, but it's a heck of a lot drier than that.
Here, listen for yourself:
So I'm basically saying omelette of cheese then like broken French? I'm fine with that, because at this point I don't think I could change how ingrained that line is in my mind. Plus if I ever actually have occasion to use it it'd probably be in Quebec and that's fine because even if I'm speaking in completely shattered language I'll never know because no one in Quebec would ever deign to use English to tell me I'm wrong. I can just pretend they sound angry because of something else that's causing them mental duress besides one very dumb American.
You've... never actually been to Quebec, have you?
The Montrealers are definitely going to switch to English, and the subject, on account of not wanting you to embarrass yourself further. The other Quebecers are just gonna make fun of you. Probably call you a "touriste" and everything.
I have not no. Just seen the joke/stereotype/commonality about how people in Quebec are very proudly French to some pretty great lengths. I'll probably never actually get to Canada unless there's a revived forumer PAX South equivalent hosted there or something. Probably never even leave California again without some draw like that. And I can speak a broken language here just fine if that's what I want to do (I do not actually enjoy embarrassing myself but I can joke about doing it!) but mostly just because I can't roll my R's and that's kind of important for Spanish.
We're still French-speaking to give those limey bastards the what-for! They tried to culturally genocide us, you know!
