Are you niggas ready for more Bela after those 3 weeks with no episodes.
BEM
Lucas Garcia
Lucas Campbell
Are we actually getting an episode this week? I have zero expectations
William Morris
Apparently we are, but went to twitter to look at some screenshots and I can't find shit and now I'm getting worried.
Nathan Ross
Well, let's find out the hard way, then.
Gabriel Rivera
Found something.
Samuel Thompson
Lucas Anderson
This guy is back. Nice.
Jeremiah Sanders
Wow, I sure am looking forward to a censored-as-fuck episode!
Oliver Young
>[HorribleSubs] Bem - 04 [720p].mkv
Out.
Leo Williams
What the fuck took them so long?
Anthony Martinez
Sebastian Hill
Ah fuck.
Now KyoAni burning down took down Bem as collateral. God damn that arsonist.
Dylan Taylor
So, is it ultra-censored? Or is it watchable?
Cameron Cook
I have no idea what was changed, as we know nothing of what the screenwriting, storyboarding, etc. were supposed to be like before the 2-week hiatus
Josiah Martin
How episodic were the first two anime? So far, we've had spotlight episodes for the three MCs with a monster of the week. I hope it builds up towards something more than that.
Isaac Nguyen
It was quite the monster of the week show, if anything this one has a bit more of an ongoing plot lurking in the shadows, with the Professor making (and recycling) monsters, and the Mysterious Lady coveryl running the whole city and studying the three heroes
Michael Murphy
>coveryl
*covertly
Logan Watson
Why? How? This is stupid.
Jackson Stewart
And so Bem returns, and proceeds to do what he does best: leaving
Cooper Long
yeah, two weeks
Ian Walker
Villain was probably an arsonist wearing gas can armor given the series villain design track record.
Cooper Sanchez
Bem is hunted, but he is no prey
Juan Gonzalez
>arsonist wearing gas can armor
Now they've changed it for jeans and red shirt?
Andrew Rodriguez
And this is why the monsters aren't teaming up to fight him.
Jeremiah Clark
Maybe this is a clue as to what needed to be changed: the bodies were supposed to be in a much worse condition, as in burnt to a crisp
Jace Sullivan
Why does he look so excited, and why are they showing the body? This city is all kinds of fucked up.
Easton Howard
I guess they either changed the power of this week's monster from fire to electricity or they redid the victims. Maybe they were really charred before?
Nicholas Diaz
Yes, this is what I suspect happened.
However, in pic related, we see that Bem, having similar electrical powers, is potentially being framed for the murders. This plot point wasn't going to happen with a fire-based monster.
Ryder Kelly
This is also going to disrupt the relationship between Bem and the humans is trying to protect.
Camden Ward
Then it's the second one. Pic related supports that idea.
Jordan Barnes
"Any", you say.
Jose Anderson
See? There are limits to the Professor's creations, and now we see why every monster ever is crazy about Bem, Bela and Belo.
Juan Rivera
They're translating "youkai" as monstrosity, for the record in the original series Bem, Bela and Belo were created in a lab too, they are not supernatural, alien or otherwordly.
Noah Ward
Give her a break lol
Oliver Brown
Now it's her turn to do the "Batman-like inconvenient disappearance in the middle of the conversation."
Alexander Green
When will we see Bela go full monster again, bros?
I wanna hug her
Zachary Martinez
Bem is being framed for those murders, but he still feels responsble for failing to protect those victims.
Michael Jones
Your fast draw skills were much sharper when Bem tried to save you, where is your gun now, officer?
Joseph Nguyen
Monsters of the week it is, then. Plural.
Leo Sullivan
As usual, Bem is a generous source of advice.
Colton Powell
I completely forgot this show existed.
Julian Collins
Heroes team up, villains kill each other
Gabriel Rogers
duh
John Bailey
>youkai ningen
I would have said something like: "BRAVO LANDQ AND PRODUCTION IG", but it's not in the title.
Liam Allen
And by "power", do you mean the kind of power the Professor and your inheritance can give you?
Dylan Hall
welp forgot pic, derp
Luke Myers
I think the new bad guy sucks
William Collins
Presumably if something that pushes her over the edge... If the bad guys start shit involving one of her classmates, I believe that could work.
Ryan Collins
The reason the Mysterious Lady knows about these "youkai ningen" or humanoid monstrosity is because she herself happens to be one.
Zachary Evans
This episode wasn't censored.
Jeremiah Perez
Does this look like a human's shadow to anyone else? I initially thought it was belo but maybe I'm just seeing things.
Thomas Martinez
you're just seeing things unless Kage, that shadow ninja guy has been rebuilt somehow
Jack Ross
Pretty shit episode desu
James Murphy
the female cop is so fucking pointless
Isaac King
I just realized this is just Batman The Animated Series with cornier writing.
John Wright
Huh. I'm guessing either:
- almost the whole episode was reanimated to make a fire man into an electric man, and the shots of smoke and ashes were the remainder
- hazmat guy with a vacuum at the end actually had a flamethrower, thus next episode had to be reanimated
Adam White
Oh fuck, forgot this was finally airing again today. Don't die yet.
Anthony Green
this anime is good for tonal whiplash, i'll give it that
Nathaniel Miller
I like how they just copy pasted the same two paragraphs.
Kayden Hernandez
This halfhearted seiyuu joke fits this halfhearted reboot perfectly.
Cooper Moore
Rip.
Nathaniel Green
Oh right Maaya Sakamoto is playing another character and not the cop. They barely even sound alike, I am retarded. Don't understand what they were trying to do with that line then.
Angel White
>smiling while looking a dead girls
He really is a creep.
Dominic Martinez
it's disaster
they need donation
Elijah Wilson
I thought it might be the blood stain from the kid's dead father.
Nathan Moore
So... the villain was clearly using fire to kill victims and now they switched it to lightning.
Fuck all this political correctness and Japanese overreaction. There isn't a single anime fan that would have resented them for using the villain that burned his victims.
There's actually an anime that's all about killing people with fire and that thing's still on air and no one is protesting it nor are they boycotting it. But Production I.G decided to kill their own anime over fucking nothing. All the momentum's now gone. Most fans already forgot about BEM.
Fucking stupid if you ask me.
Charles Wood
>t.fag that never sat in class blasting liveleak gore vids at max volume with the biggest shit eating grin on your face...
Ayden Reed
> There's actually an anime that's all about killing people with fire and that thing's still on air
you mean fire force? because that got smacked with a censoring stick too
Cameron Diaz
So let me get this straight, there is a doctor who can give you super powers if you pay him enough and this motherfucker asked him to turn him into corn starch? The fuck?
Jaxon Edwards
Hey man, people have different fetishes, don't knock them for that.
Asher Wright
sure, but it was not stopped from airing and they weren't cancelled.
Eli Perry
they took a week off to be respectful too and saying "they weren't cancelled" implies that BEM will be, which i don't think is true unless i'm completely out of the loop
Jayden Martin
I think what say is true. He was an electric villain, just that the bodies were supposed to be charred. The plot relied on Bem and the murderer having the same power, and I doubt they redid the entire episode.
Christopher Nelson
To be fair, that's speculation by the mooks, and the big bad woman corrects it to our trio being "youkai ningen" (as stated in the title of previous shows and the franchise in general: Youkai Ningen Bem)
Hudson Stewart
Electric man couldn't have been fire man before. Not when the episode's script has moments where Bem is the primary suspect for the cop lady, and said suspicion comes from our MoTW and Bem both using lightning powers
Evan Russell
The voice actor for this guy is THE WORST. It's some old dude voicing some guy in his late 20s. Horrible.
Colton Hill
He sounds like Saiki Kusuo's dad.
Jack Carter
pretty sure it's the dude who voices MADAO
Jordan Parker
MADAO
Ayden Scott
Anthony Gray
Shame, she was such a cutie.
James Cox
rip
Benjamin Lee
Smug
Isaiah Carter
