I can't believe this.
Mamori shopping with friends is deleted- 30 seconds

I never really enjoyed the anime nearly as much as the manga, but it wasn't that bad.
As such, I don't like how it's getting RAPED.

Holy scheiße
Man this stuff is good.
Maybe they should edit out the uniforms because in regular Amerikkkan high schools they don't wear uniforms
lol Americans
PicMaybe they'll edit this out.\
Sena makes himself taller? oh shi!
I'm crying now
At least in the manga, Hiruma has guns. Lots of guns.
Anyone keep the rip link earlier? Barring that, it should be on Toonami Jetstream.
Eyeshield? More like Shitsux 21 lulz.
aww, it says only Amerikkans can watch it. Guess they don't want anyone else to see how much they butchered it.
LOL Toonami
ITT we wonder how Americans can't even tolerate American Football and Automatic Rifles.
They're as American as Apple Pie.
BAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
The correct line at this point should be, "sena, did you get bigger", and then, hardcore sex.
The op's BAAAAAAAAAAAAAD
Fuuuuck
It really is bad.
OH ficken NO
NO GOD NO
YOU ARE THE WORST OP SONG EVER
Eyeshield 21 is actually good.
stupid wannabe rockstars.
Is it as bad as
YO HO HO HE TOOK A BITE OF GUM GUM
I've seen the original, then I see this. Amerikkans.
Wow, that's utter verdammt scheiße. I feel bad for Eyeshield 21, and I never liked the garbage in the first place.
after Seeing the quality of dubs lately, cannot wait to see the american version of nanoha
CAN'T UNSEE
Wow.
That's... really good.
I'm kind of ashamed to be an American right now.
Of course, I'm also half-Korean, so I'm also kind of proud.
It's kind of hilarious how much better this is than the official dub--bad reverb, clear latino accent, sometimes off-beat lyrics and all.
PicSaber! is it really that bad?!
99-0 loss changed to a 99-0 win
Wait, WHAT?
yeah, what was the point of sena being recruited?
That was my reaction, too. Anyone know more about that?

You're an evil person yet I too wish to witness it.
Pic
PicThat's it, I hope this verdammt fails hard. The animu's scheiße, but holy ficken, NO anime has to go thru this.
;_; Poor E21, a good shounen mango don't deserve this.
