Outlaw Star screams 90's style anime in nearly every facet so if you're nostalgic for that style of anime it makes sense.

I remember actively changing the channel when Outlaw Star came on originally because I thought it looked too "pointy" and serious (9-year old logic). Now I feel like kicking 9-year old me's ass.
Though much of my backlog currently is old 4:3 cel-shaded stuff I never got around to, so being a sucker for that definately has something to do with it.
I started watching Gundam with G, but I do remember seeing a rerun of Endless Waltz towards the end of G Gundam's run and thinking "Why are they operating these like planes?"

Dragon Con Panel happening now, no new news, beginning with Q&A god help us.

I mean, seven years is plenty of time to become nostalgic.
More then that AT&T has its tendrils in Crunchyroll.

Black clover being simuldubbed by funimation is awesome will look to buying the blu ray in 2018
What exactly would this even entail?
Details for those of us who can't watch the stream right now?
The question was if Toonami would have a more conventional streaming service since what they do now is marathons on the Adult Swim live stream and then Duke Togo out of the blue mentioned that things may be happening with AT&T coming in if Toonami is around in a year or two.
They are currently undergoing a merger.
Hope everyone in the animated action genre are paying attention to them.
Seems like Gundam Wing is in the crosshairs next.
Being 112 episodes, it's probably too long, hence why it'd be a bit expensive.
I'd say "maybe air a movie as a daylight savings goodie", but Poltergeist Report isn't licensed by Funimation & has a completely different dub. The voice of Yusuke is voiced by the same guy who was the main character from the infamous Garzey's Wing should be an indicator of the quality of the dub.

Why is it so expensive? Togashi tax?
How Sara discovered it.
Interesting.
That be fun.
Right up to the point you realize that Gundam Wing was actually kind of terrible.
Then it be more fun since you can point out the problems.
It'll fill the bleach size hole on our hearts
Nothing can fill that ink hole.
I don't really want to relive the cosmic nightmare that is Relina Darlian.
Holy crap, Steven Blum got freakin' DEATH THREATENED by fans for dubbing The Guyver (one of his first dubs) & was told that "he was ruining the art form of anime" at his very first convention, amazing to think one of the most famous VAs had to deal with that kind of crap back in the day.
Did they have a villain named Warcraft?
lol Peacecraft?

I'll eat my hat if TOONAMI folds before at least starting to air Gundam Wing HD, and I've been saying that ever since they got back into the Gundam game.
Gundam Wing has a lot of problems but fortunately being boring is not one of them. You can feed for days if it keeps the same dub because it is an even bigger case of we only had a budget for the main characters and everyone else in an intern than Lupin Part 4. Some of the minor characters are SO BAD. SO SO BAD. Like that little girl only with important speaking roles.
The villains of Gundam Wing, roughly in order, spoiled for the youths of the thread.

Treize Khushrenada, a man who believes in the nobility of war and proves it, by means of war.
Duke Dermail, a man who believes in maintaining the status quo of nobility by means of war.
Quinze, a revolutionary who believes in overturning the status quo of humanity being ruled from earth by means of war.
Milliardo Peacecraft, a man who believes in lying to everyone so he can achieve ultimate peace by means of war.

Whoops, my mistake on the name, that is actually an important point in the series.
We do need some proper hatewatch material now that Tokyo Ghoul got dreadfully boring.
Yep, there it is.
you forgot wu fei
Gundam Wing is ultimately a flawed but still good show. Some character's motivations will bug people even more than it did back over 15 years ago because they seem even sillier now.
Gundam is always filled with people who act before thinking and whose thoughts aren't very good to begin with. If Wing somehow airs directly back to back with IBO Season 2 it will give people a lot of rope to hang the main character of Wing with. I rewatched the whole thing when it hit Hulu earlier this year and found it holds up pretty well, though I did wish it was in HD. Being consistently entertaining helps keep it a notch above a lot of other shows that have been considered drags on the block.
Another slight problem with the HD version is that it isn't quite as gorgeously remastered as G Gundam was, but it still looks really good (a bit better than Outlaw Star is where I'd peg it.)
What a beautiful relationship
Seriously when I saw that clip it's was one the hilariously edgiest thing I ever seen
