Gun’s & Roses by Paradise Lunch.
From the anime TV show Baccano.
One of my favourite anime shows out there. I don’t care that the plotline’s convoluted what with jumping between all the different years in a non-sequential order. I think it’s kind of fun and makes following the series like a puzzle. And I find myself trying to solve and organize the timeline days after I’ve watched an episode.
The band, Paradise Lunch- are awesome too. They’re like a newer version of The Seatbelts (who did the music for Cowboy Bebop) with more of a big band feel which I prefer more actually. It suits the demeanor of the show.

YOU GUYS.
YOU GUYS, no joke, I am sitting here and my stomach hurts because I was just laughing so hard.
So I’m sitting with my parents watching a movie, and out of the blue, my mom gets this puzzled look on her face, turns to me, and goes, “Wait, what’s the name of that guy in the Sherlock series? Bastard Munchclover?”
BASTARD.
MUNCHCLOVER.
I died. I literally could not stop laughing for a good five minutes. I had to keep telling her “No, it’s Benedict Cumberbatch.” And then a few seconds later, she’d go, “Wait. What was it again? I don’t know why I can’t remember this guy’s name!”
Eventually, I just told her that his name really was Bastard Munchclover.
Finally. The name mystery is solved.
HOLY SHIT I LITERALLY SPILT MY DRINK OMFG
LITERALLY CRYING RIGHT NOW OMFG
Same’s true of the Black Widow. Scarlett Johanssen looked great in that outfit, but she seemed to be there only as eye candy. The shot in the middle of the battle where she pulls out a pistol was silly. I don’t know who this Black Widow was, and I don’t think the screenwriter did either. She wasn’t the original comic Black Widow, the Russian femme fatale who seduces Hawkeye into trying to kill Iron Man. She wasn’t the later comic book Black Widow, who dons a costume, comes over to the good guys, and teams with first Hawkeye and then Daredevil. She was just… there.
George R. R. Martin, on reviewing the Avengers. [SOURCE]
Okay, George, I do totally agree with your earlier assessment of Hawkeye. I’ll give you that he didn’t have enough screentime to get proper development. But no. I can’t even let you finish, there will be no finishing of the Kanye West meme here. WERE WE WATCHING THE SAME FILM?
I don’t want to automatically fall back on the “you think she’s just eye candy, because you’re a male” argument, because that’s unfair. Fuck, you write some really damned decent females yourself (all things considered). But honestly? No. No, we were not watching the same film.
“JUST THERE?” Uh, did you not see any of her development at all, or were you just waiting for the men to come in and steal the show? This is the same character who is the only one to get decent information when everyone else is too busy arguing over stupid personal bullshit. This is the same character who has a conversation with Loki and doesn’t lose her cool. This is the same character jumping onto alien warcraft and beating these assholes at their own game. This is the same character saving the motherfucking day by racing off to beat Loki while all the boys are too busy playing house with the alien army.
Don’t tell me she was just there. That she was just eye candy. She was one of the most important motherfucking characters in the entire film, and it saddens me when reviews degrade Johansson’s performance simply because she isn’t one of the guys. And why do all of these reviews seem to come from long time comics fans, 90% of the time all male? You do realize that the Marvel Cinematic Universe is a canon into itself and doesn’t actually follow the comics the way you’re claiming it should? That characters were changed and updated to fit with current audiences and currently relevant plots? Laying this all on Black Widow’s origins not adding up right is just plain silly at this point in the MCU game. (A game you don’t seem to be playing well, G.R.R.M.)
Flawless bitch carried that goddamn film. Period.

“Flawless bitch carried that goddamn film. Period.” YEP.

Is this a fucking joke? I’m tired of this bullshit that because an actress is fucking drop-dead gorgeous it must mean her character is simply there to to be eye candy. Fuck you. Don’t be such a misogynistic fuck. SHE CLOSED THE FUCKING PORTAL. SHE LITERALLY BEAT THE LOKI OUT OF CLINT.

I am suddenly proud of the fact that my 26-year-old red-blooded heterosexual brother, while finding Black Widow hot, would be the first one in line to call that “just eye candy” bullshit what it is.

I just want to add that WITHOUT SCARLETT’S PROFORMANCE, one of the most important and investing characters of the film would have failed.
That’s right. I’m talking about the mother fucking Hulk.
Without the establishment of the Black Widow as a badass, without establishing her calm and collected demeanor and general physical and verbal control over every situation she’s in and then grounding her in her extremely human fear of the Hulk
The Hulk wouldn’t have fucking worked.
She was NOT just eye candy. She did EVERYTHING that everyone else has already pointed out and more. She is so integral to the plot and the other characters that Bruce Banner’s alter ego, arguably, could not have stolen the show without her.
And also? Joss did that WITHOUT putting her in a fucking fridge, thank you. TAKE SOME FUCKING NOTES.
