Introduction to 'Weave Along' Podcast
00:00:04
Speaker
Welcome to Weave Along. I'm Jon, and I'm forcing my friend Nelson, who doesn't like anime, to watch and discuss different anime. Thanks for tuning in. Let's get started.
Salt Bae Controversies and World Cup Ban
00:00:17
Speaker
Hello, weebs. Welcome back to the show. This is We Belong, the show where I've got my buddy Nelson here. Say hi, Nelson. What's new? Yeah, that is you. And you got me, John. And we are currently watching Gate or Gate. As the common man would call it. Yeah, common, common gate.
00:00:44
Speaker
Gotta add a little flavor in your life. Even if it is just a little bit of salt. Just a little sprinkle, just a little salt bae, just a little... Fuck salt bae. Fuck that guy.
00:00:58
Speaker
Is he an asshole in real life or is it just? Oh, dude, I think he's banned from the World Cup. Why? He's OK. So he thinks he's like so fucking famous because of the one like meme. So before before I get to why he's banned from the World Cup, if you ever see any of the footage like from his restaurant to have him come out and do the little like salt thing on your food or an upcharge, dude, it's like twenty five thousand dollars. Oh.
00:01:27
Speaker
Also, and no, no, no, he's banned from the World Cup because when the last one ended in what was I think like 2019, 2020, he he stormed the field and goes out there and is like trying to hug players. He's trying to grab the actual trophy and everyone's like, who the fuck are you? Mm hmm. I say you can tell that you're super famous when everyone just
00:01:54
Speaker
refers to as the Salt Bay guy as opposed to your actual fucking name. Yeah. Oh, my God. I go watch his like tiktoks about him when we're done recording. And I swear to God, you're going to want to fly to wherever the hell he is and just punch him.
00:02:11
Speaker
I'll be honest, I probably won't. And I'll be honest, I'll probably send you three. You won't watch. Oh, gosh. OK, cool. Yeah, welcome to Gate. Oh, yeah.
Format Change: Reviewing More 'Gate' Episodes
00:02:25
Speaker

00:02:58
Speaker
And see if you can hear it. Yeah. What is it? The quiet down and listen up, whatever the fuck Timothy Chalamet said in the Willy Wonka thing that just came out. Oh, God. That was it. It was a cute movie. I did not see it. I saw it. I wanted to die for the first 20 minutes of Wonka. Mm hmm.
00:03:18
Speaker
I was like, this is the cringiest fucking thing I've ever seen in my life. And honestly, it still kind of was. Yeah. But when I tell you that there were like legitimate homicides in that movie. Nice. Like there was a there's a whole murder plot in a nut allergy that has a little bit of like, you know, it's great fucking murder. Oh, just straight up murder. Straight up murder. Mm hmm. That's what makes the chocolate taste so good.
00:03:50
Speaker
What is it? Is it the murderous intent or are they putting in like something from are they disposing evidence into the chocolate? You know, a little bit up to artistic liberty. Oh, check the ingredients before you before you eat it, I guess. Yeah. Oh, let's check them right. Is that a fingernail? What the fuck?
00:04:11
Speaker
Oh, you'll find another restaurant anyway. But anyway, gate. But anyway, got a. Yeah, that's a show. It's a show. We're watching actively, actively. Yeah. It's just for no episode last week, by the way. Yes, correct. We've been doing some stuff. We've had some stuff and some things going on and we are looking forward to more stuffs and things with you guys for the podcast.
00:04:35
Speaker
Also planning a wedding as well. It makes things difficult. That's coming up. It is. Oh, God. The three, three ish weeks. Yeah. Three weeks from tomorrow. This episode comes out. Yes. Yeah. Dun dun. Oh, yeah. I'll do a little SVU for your wedding. God, no. That's not OK.
00:05:00
Speaker
Bum, bum, bum, boom, bam. You're going to get up and start giving the best man speech and fucking ice tea is going to walk out. So Liz, what you're telling me? Oh, OK. Oh, it's Liv, not Liz. Crazy. There you go. Yep. Nailed it. Oh, I've never seen SVU. I thought you were right. Oh, I have seen so much SVU. Well, I know your wife is like a true crime nut.
00:05:27
Speaker
Correct. Yeah, but cool. Anyway, getting into the show with got a episode 16. In this episode, we watch an assassination attempt and watch as the flame dragon returns.
Assassination Attempt in 'Gate' Discussed
00:05:41
Speaker
And that's pretty much it. Um, we see a lot of the damage control and that's all that. But we open up on a bunny girl because Kate, you have to buy one. Yep. That's her name. Cool.
00:05:56
Speaker
She is the bartender at the tavern. Everybody loves Delilah. Delilah is known to be a sweetheart.
00:06:03
Speaker
And they're Delilah. What's it like in the special region? You're an entire dimensional way. But I have written down in my notes for her bunny girl and then I have for tool. I have Bitch Bunny as my sequel to the house bunny. Yeah.
00:06:29
Speaker
she's really got fed up with it. She got fed up with Chris Pratt. Yeah. AO good Britain's. Right. Yep. But anyway, back to Gattay. Delilah goes skipping on through and her plain white tea through the town, having a lovely little dizzy moment, singing and being happy. And then she's like, Oh, it's such a beautiful day out. Wow.
00:06:55
Speaker
And then eventually she goes back home and she has a letter addressed to her with the royal seal on it. Ooh, nifty. And she goes from super happy to, well, you know, existential crisis as she gets a letter saying that she needs to assassinate Noriko.
00:07:19
Speaker
Who is the bitch who just got freed from slavery by Kurobaiashi, uppercut, and Zorzel? Yeah. Yeah. A great time that was. Great time that was. That's also the last time that we'll ever see Kurobaiashi, apparently. Pretty much, yeah. She was not in any of these five episodes. I believe, I believe we may see her one more time in the final episode.
00:07:46
Speaker
Really? I think so. It's that's how it is with basically all of the JSTF homies. Dang. Even Corretta? Even that one. Honestly, I don't remember. We'll have to see.
00:08:01
Speaker
Heard that. We'll have to wait and see. Heard that. But yeah, she freaks out a little bit and then we get to see Bitch Bunny putting the head out talking to her little fucking gremlin bitch who's creepy and likes feet and yeah.
00:08:19
Speaker
And tells the whole plot of like, well, I'm going to make it look like it's from the royal family. So that way all the heat falls on Zorzel and he'll rise to power. But then also, you know, it'll be a fun, good time and fuck all these people because she hates the royal family because they fucked up her family. They killed a lot of people. They did. They killed a lot of bunnies, which made a bitch out of one of them.
00:08:44
Speaker
Uh, but yeah, so that happened and then we get to see, uh, Sue, don't not to go. Our, uh, what's his name? Uh, Yana Gita. He's the one who's the voice of the kid in, um, ghost stories.
00:09:01
Speaker
Oh, all right, cool. Yeah, we get to see Yana Gita going around on the base and sort of trying to clean up and smooth over Itami leaving. He talks to the general and all that and they're like, hey, you know, we're not supposed to be doing this, but fuck it. Let's let's let it happen. He's one of us. He may be an asshole, but he's our asshole. And then they sort of
00:09:30
Speaker
label it as he's on a resource like. Investigation trip where he's just no scouring the special region for all these good resources that they can use to bring back to japan cuz you know.
00:09:47
Speaker
That's what you do. It's just like Minecraft. Crazy. Um, but yeah, so that happens. Army backs up a Tommy. Then we get to see Duran again, eating a fucking leg of lamb or whatever the fuck it was. Probably. Yeah. Yeah. We learned that he wants to return to power, but also doesn't want to necessarily be with the empire. And so him and while I've already forgot his name, sorry. Uh, Yana Gita, uh, start a conversation.
00:10:17
Speaker
They make a little deal about like hey you can pass my borders and if you do this for me and they're like okay well we're gonna do this then yada yada yada and so they have a whole tax exemption and they claim the resources on the ground and they're like well you can't have our iron and copper cuz that's fucking we need that trade yeah and then they're like cool what about everything else because we'll take that.
00:10:45
Speaker
Hashtag get the oil. Pretty much. Yeah. Yeah. America. The best part about that whole interaction is immediately following that Duran Duran is like, wait, there's other things that are valuable. Yeah. Is it not just copper and silver? Right. What the fuck?
00:11:09
Speaker
crazy other resources yeah having a table of shit there's no need for oil like none i'm amazed nobody has looked at like
00:11:20
Speaker
the Japanese coming in with all this shit and been like, you know what? Let's try to make that while they're here because we see it so often. Right. But I don't mean they can make a combustion engine. Right. They are so far, so far back that they even say it's just magic, you know? Yeah. The steel forces. Yeah. Crazy.
00:11:46
Speaker
Good talk, buddy. Good talk. All right. But anyway, getting back into it. After he finishes that, we get to see a little bit of Noriko. Noriko's just gotten off the phone and is like, oh shit, people are actually dead. She has her bubble popped. She gets less too good. And she finds out about that and then she's sad. She's like, well, maybe I should die. And then as she says that out loud, assassin bunny pops up and she's like, hey.
00:12:12
Speaker
Delilah Delilah with the knives. Delilah says hey there. Hey there Noriko. What's it like in hell, bitch? And Jesus Christ. Yep. Goes to kill Noriko and Noriko is like, well, if you're going to do it, I'm fine with dying so I can see my family again.
00:12:33
Speaker
If you just try to make it as painless as possible and then she's like well How would you like me to do this cuz I mean if I'm gonna kill you I don't exactly know how to do that without causing you at least a little bit of pain
00:12:44
Speaker
And then she's like, I don't know. And then as they're talking back and forth about how to kill her, uh, fucking specs comes around the corner. Damn. It just remember his name. Oh, that sounds like a lot of work. Oh, it comes around the corner. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, goes fucking freeze bitch. Uh, and then there's a whole little like, Oh, and instead of killing Noriko,
00:13:11
Speaker
which was her job. She rushes at, uh, Yana Gita. Yeah. Uh, honestly had to really work for that in my brain. Uh, no, no, you could hear that. But yeah, Russia, that Yana Gita, uh, stabs Yana Gita. Yana Gita also is able to detain her. And so it's like a good.
00:13:32
Speaker
double-edged sword where Noriko is safe, but now Yanagita is stabbed and he is stable. Delilah's been shot repeatedly. Yeah, yeah, she dead. She dead as shit. Yanagita probably also dead as shit. Bye bye, bun bun.
00:13:52
Speaker
But we see that and then we also see them getting ready to, you know, weaponize the Jets and shit like that against the dragon. And then they go and they go flying and then they find the dragon and then they do a little dogfight thing and they realize, oh, that's a fucking dragon. And then they have to retreat and.
00:14:11
Speaker
Yeah, yeah that and then we get to actually see our main character. Crazy. A little bit of Itame. They make it to where the dark elves are and who should show up after that but the Dragong. Rory and Lele start fighting it while Itame is trying to be like, Tuka, that's the bitch who murdered your father. Get him.
00:14:35
Speaker
and then gives a whole fucking RPG to Tuka, and then forces her to pull the trigger, and she's like, I don't want it! And then he's like, you know, fucking do it. And so snaps her out of it. So we actually get to see Tuka as not crazy from here on out, completely different character. Yeah.
00:14:55
Speaker
But yeah, this is the dragon. The dragon still flies away because of, you know, just all the other shit that's going on in between Rory and Lillay and the archers and all that good shit. But that's where the episode ends. And that'll bring us to episode 17. Over to you, Nelson. Real quick to touch on that last one. Yes. The only the only thing you missed. Yeah. Is
00:15:19
Speaker
the chef at the capital. Oh, I was always being like, who the fuck cooked this? I want more because he is a spy for the JSTF. And he learned that Marcus was stealing parchment to make the empire to make Zora's all look bad. Yes. So he was the one they sold it to Delilah.
00:15:48
Speaker
And heard that heard that heard that a good time. But that brings us to, you know, good old episode 17, where we get the pre battle set up against the flame dragon leading to the battle itself and we get to meet a new apostle.
00:16:09
Speaker
Briefly, but yes, so they it Tommy and the Dark Elves all fight off
Battle Preparations Against the Flame Dragon
00:16:15
Speaker
the dragon. They kind of get it to retreat a little bit after that RPG shot and they go straight into the fucking nest.
00:16:23
Speaker
And Rory's like, hey, I'm going to wait outside in case anything happens. Like we have comms. I can call you if anything goes wrong. As soon as they get inside, they lose comms. And instead of going back out for Rory and Tommy's like, oh, fuck it. Let's just set up, I guess. And yeah, wait a little backup. They have very competent backup. Yeah, of course. And what? Eight, six.
00:16:48
Speaker
Some of those dark elves are in them. I would say more than that, because I think we see more than that die. Yeah, because as you pointed out, when we met the dark elves, we got like three names out of 20 people.
00:17:08
Speaker
And you literally just went, oh, that's cannon fodder. Yeah. Yeah. Look, expendable people right there. Yeah. Great. But they are in the volcano in which the flame dragon lives. Tommy goes ahead and sets up a whole bunch of C4 in the nest so that when the dragon comes to land,
00:17:31
Speaker
They can just blow it up and he puts a whole bunch of swords on top for as much shrapnel as they could get because he's trying to cause maximum damage because it's a fucking flame dragon. It is a doobie. It would only make sense to have a little extra help. And as they're getting set up,
00:17:51
Speaker
The dragon arrives and proceeds to fucking incinerate pretty much every dark elf. Everybody. And in the I can't remember if it's in the previous episode or the very beginning of this one, it taught me is teaching them how to use some weapons. Yeah, this one. OK. Yeah.
00:18:13
Speaker
because they don't actually really talk to the Dark Elves in the last one. That's right, because the dragon just shows up and does its its thing. Mm hmm. But yeah, in the beginning of this one, it taught to do the roller. If Tommy tries to teach them how to use RPGs in case they find one on the ground in the the I guess the panic of the dragon coming down. Yeah. And the first thing he teaches them about it is what? Backbend.
00:18:41
Speaker
Backblast Yeah, that one. There you go. Listen, it's because you're not wrong because when you shoot a rocket launcher, there's a big propulsion out the rear. I just had the weirdest mental image of like a cat girl like doing like a matrix fucking like back and with an RPG and then just like
00:19:07
Speaker
In the gate animation style and I felt like you know missed opportunity missed opportunity After it all of the teaching about black back blast. Mm-hmm
00:19:22
Speaker
It immediately happens and we lose like three dark elves because somebody doesn't check his rear. Mm hmm. And you had one job. Yeah, there's lots of people that can Kardashian. Last dude right on the back. Um, no, she didn't buy. A friend told me, but. Uh huh. Uh huh.
00:19:46
Speaker
Itami is literally screaming check the rear as those three die the flame dragon starts incinerating everybody munching people So while all of this is going on we have Tuka essentially doing nothing because she's still PTSD'd out the ass and seeing Itami as her father and all that but Itami gets chucked against the wall like
00:20:12
Speaker
I would think it Tommy was dead from how hard he it was. It was essentially fushiguro hitting the wall from my raga. Yeah. It's the murder of the maraga hit. Yeah. She sees that happen and she's like, Oh, fuck. That's not my dad. That's my friend right now. My friend needs help.
00:20:35
Speaker
And during all of this, the detonator for the C4 is just fucked. It won't go off. Nothing's going on. Touka hits that bitch with lightning. It blows up and Lele goes sweet. Now is my opportunity. And we get to see Lele do easily the coolest shit we've seen up to this point from her.
00:20:56
Speaker
where all of the swords they were using as shrapnel start levitating. Yeah, and she launches them at Mach Jesus. You have to read into the dragon. Yep, he becomes a pin cushion. He does. Yeah, it looks like Sasuke from the Haku fight. Yes, I understand that reference now. Yeah, you do. I do. I get it. I get it. But.
00:21:22
Speaker
But yeah, thusly ends the dragon after the combo of the C four and the swords. Yeah, get fucked. Get absolutely fucking wrecked. There's like four dark elves alive. Are there? I didn't think that there were any. There's a couple. Hmm. OK. Yeah, I was alive. I think the one of the guys that she introduced got killed, but I think there's still like three or four remaining. Heard.
00:21:52
Speaker
Um. But yeah, they leave out of the. Volcano. Yeah, because also they're like, we should probably go check up on Rory as we haven't been able to talk to her. Exactly, because, yeah, no comms. So she's probably fine, right? Probably.
00:22:14
Speaker
or or she's on the ground virtually dead. Yep. Because she was fighting Giselle, who is and what? Not even that. She wasn't fighting Giselle yet. What? She had already been. She had already been fighting Giselle. Had she? I thought that she had. It was easier for her to lose that fight because she was taking the damage. I mean, OK. So Giselle came in and fucked her up because she was already weak.
00:22:43
Speaker
Yeah. OK. Gotcha. I thought that she was that way because of of taking the brunt of the damage for him. No. So it Tommy would have died. Yes. Inside. Had Rory not actually. Yeah. But Rory. Yeah. Yeah. It was the bite that she did and was like, oh, you belong to me now was her kind of pact to take on his pain.
00:23:11
Speaker
Oh, OK. Yeah, that. Yeah. Got it. I was like, because she's that's pretty fucked that she's very selective. I was like, Oh, so she's only going to save a time and the people that she knows. Fuck the dark elves that came along. I mean, you protect the homies. Yep. That's I get it. I know. What did you think of the dragon fight before we get too far?
00:23:36
Speaker
I thought that it was fun. I thought that was good. I enjoyed it. I really liked Tucca doing some lightning shit and, you know, just doing shit in general. I was just not doing anything. Yeah, and then getting to see Lillet do a little bit of magic and...
00:23:54
Speaker
because other than her levitating bubbles and stuff like that, we really haven't seen her do much, we haven't seen any like, battle casting. She did nothing in italica because she was left behind. Right, yeah. Yeah, so it was cool to see a little bit of Lillet and a little bit of Tuka in action because they haven't had a chance for that since the first time we saw the dragon back in the very beginning of season one. Yeah, so I mean, hey, it was a cool fight. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
00:24:22
Speaker
uh and now we get the incident outside where giselle is like hey man thanks for taking the brunt of all the damage for him now you were super easy to kill uh you need to come back to what the fuck's your name hardy yeah
00:24:41
Speaker
because Hardy still wants to marry Rory. Mm hmm. Turns out Juzelle was the one that woke up the flame dragon in the first place to go and cause chaos. And she now has its children. Yeah, the plot thickens. The plot thickens for the next three minutes. Yep.
00:25:02
Speaker
Uh, yeah, Giselle six, the dragons on Tommy and everybody, they start to run away. However, because they are not full grown dragons, they are not as strong. So when the helicopters come in, no more dragons. Correct. They just rock their shit and call it a day. Yeah. And the day is saved thanks to the Powerpuff Girls. Mm hmm. Um, um.
00:25:33
Speaker
Fun fact the There's a song the dragon was by Tara strong it is there is a
00:25:42
Speaker
There's a song called Worldwide Suicide. Yeah. That uses the drums from the Powerpuff Girls theme. Really? That's in a in a deathcore song about everybody killing themselves. There's just the full drum build up from the Powerpuff Girls. Makes sense, right? Yeah, why not? But after the dragons get killed, Giselle fucks off. Our heroes are safe. And that is where our episode ends.
00:26:12
Speaker
Yeah, bringing us to episode 18. In this episode, we get introduced to the city of Rondell and witness the peace negotiations in the capital, which don't go too well.
Failed Peace Negotiations and Rising Tensions
00:26:24
Speaker
They don't they don't go according to plan. No. Yeah, there's a little plot twist at the end.
00:26:31
Speaker
Uh, but yeah, we open up with the Tommy back at the base. Uh, we open up with him getting scolded and I have this, my note, Tommy gets grounded. He gets stripped of his rank. It's old that he's confined to the base and all that shit. And then immediately after that, the general pops up. He was like, all right, now that that's over with.
00:26:50
Speaker
Onto your commendations and so he gets honored. He becomes an ability in the special region. He also now owns the owl. He does. He has ownership of a girl called Yao. Yeah.
00:27:06
Speaker
And then also is granted permission to do things as in, you know, take the team that you have assembled and go out on resource expedition trying to find that and make that happen because that's what we're all about. Get that oil in having ownership of Yao. He is also given the giant diamond.
00:27:31
Speaker
Yes, by the dark elves. Got a big old rock. Got a big old where he could use that to propose to yell. Except. Oh, yeah. No, we'll get to that one. Yeah, that's it. That's the next episode. Yeah, we'll get there. Oh, but yeah, we get to see that. And then we go from there to Lele.
00:27:52
Speaker
Learning how to drive, which is cool on the way to my helmet. Yeah, her little helmet. And it says that she does the best. So I guess everyone else has had attempts at driving. Yes. Only showed the lay and Tom is like, you're the best at it. And then Rory is like, shut the fuck up. Direct quote, direct quote. Yeah. And then they have a little campfire, a CMP, FIRS at one G song. And then they belong.
00:28:26
Speaker
And then they decide to make a, you know, a bucket list or a road trip stop for now that they have this, you know, you can go wherever you want and all that. And then Roy is like, hey, can we go to this place because I want to go talk to Hardy and be like, hey, bitch, fuck off. In person, which I mean, respect, no breakup over text, even if with, you know, a God.
00:28:53
Speaker
Um, yeah. And then the next day we go to Rondo, which is the wizard city, the town based off of knowledge and wisdom and, uh, where we've just apparently resort to violence and bullying, like, and carry. Uh, it sends a message. Yeah.
00:29:17
Speaker
that wisdom doesn't always mean that you're the smartest boom yeah greater commentary on life uh yeah but we get there and they check into a hotel and they're like oh you're here for your wizarding thing you must be respected and all that and then they look at it tommy and they're like
00:29:40
Speaker
slave. And so- Servant, manservant. Manservant. Atomic gets pushed into a broom closet for his hotel room staying near Lele's and Lele has an actual fucking room. During that, after he sees his thing, he asks if he can come in. We get a costume change from Lele as she dons.
00:30:03
Speaker
the master's robes as she is attempting to go under the test for becoming a master. So she can have that full title and all that.
00:30:16
Speaker
which is nifty and cool and like it. However, you do find out that if she fucks that up, then everyone in the city will be able to throw ink on her in her robes and she is not allowed to wash it out. And whenever she is in the city, she has to wear those robes.
00:30:34
Speaker
Nothing better than a little public shaming by all of your peers. You said I want to go higher. Exactly. Like, oh, you tried. Wow. Get shit on. Feel bad. And it's not even like it's, you know, you're you're like if if I look at you and I say fucking.
00:30:58
Speaker
Water is red, right? The ocean is red. You can chuckle and call me dumb, but you may not. Yeah, but you may not throw ink on me. Correct. However, I can tell you correct information and you could be like boring and then you could just throw it at me. There's no actual measurement to them of. It is fully subjective. It's a popularity contest.
00:31:28
Speaker
Yep. It's fucking ridiculous. So, yeah, definitely no flaws in the wisdom city. No, no, no. They're all
Cultural Challenges in Rondell
00:31:36
Speaker
all knowing exactly genius. This is too many. Yes, is there a mud? Mm hmm. Oh, cool. Well, yeah, we see that. And then as they leave the hotel or hotel,
00:31:52
Speaker
Um, there's a hotel in Japanese. Japanese, you fucking bet your ass. God damn it. Uh, but yeah, they get out and fucking bump into crazy old lady named Mimosa. Uh, and, uh, she is, you know, like, oh my God, Lily. Uh, and then Lily is like, that's not my name. Uh, they call me Stacy. They call me her.
00:32:21
Speaker
They call me. And I don't know how much to that. What was that? Like two thousand eight two thousand nine. I don't know. That's not my name. I couldn't even tell you who sang the damn song. Who is it? Carly Rae Jepsen? I wish I would have actually listened to it. Fucking love Carly Rae Jepsen. Waiting for the reveal of who sang it. I'm getting there. Oh, OK. I thought that you knew just like right off the top of your head.
00:32:47
Speaker
Is it is this? OK, first of all, it wasn't exactly 2008. Hell, yeah. And I'm not away with the useless shit I know in my brain now. I'm going to send you a screenshot of who sings the song and I will allow you to say it. OK, I'm scared. I the ting tings.
00:33:14
Speaker
Yeah. Name me another song by the Ting Tings. Call me maybe. It's not Carly Rae Jepsen. Are you sure? I am positive. They're British. You never know. Shut the fuck up and keep talking. Carly Rae Jepsen. Or Dame. Dame Carly Rae Jepsen. Make it happen.
00:33:42
Speaker
Uh, honestly. But anyway, I'd go to the coronation. Yeah, I go. I go. Yeah. But yeah, we get to see Mimosa, who is this old lady who is associated with a lot of shit in the city and also deals with Arpeggio, who is Lele's older sister.
00:34:10
Speaker
Bum bum. So you kind of had a prediction, right? Yeah. A few episodes back, I think it was. Yeah. Tuka, you were like, there's a secret sibling that they're going to that they need to kill. Well, it's a kind of a secret sibling and there's a rivalry. There's a rivalry, but it's not. Yeah, it's not, you know, homicide. We've officially found Itachi.
00:34:37
Speaker
Let's go, Danny. Let's go. Anyway, moving forward, we get Mimosa talking about all this stuff and again, keeps on saying Lily and Lily's like, it's not Lily, it's Lele. And she's like, I'm just going to call you Lily. And then she falls down the ground and then fucking Arpeggio shows up.
00:34:54
Speaker
And she's like, yeah, no, I've been doing this while my bitch of a younger sister has been apparently doing all this cool shit and making me look awful, even though I'm just staying here and learning and trying my best. You're out there. Oh, you're out there doing, you know, cool girl shit and fuck you.
00:35:14
Speaker
Just jealous. A jealous bitch behavior. Yeah. A jealous bitch behavior. Let's be honest. And then she looks at Mimosa who's down on the ground and instead of offering to help her up like a nice decent human being, says, hey, Mimosa, make a fucking reservation. Get on it, bitch. For a respectable, you know, restaurant. So that way they can catch up. And we'll see that in the next episode.
00:35:42
Speaker
Uh, yeah. The, and we get to go to a sort of mingle function in between the special region and the Japanese delegates. And, uh, sukawara is there and Sherry Chuli is there as well.
00:36:02
Speaker
Yep. You got it. Yeah, Samwell Tarly is there. And two episodes left. Listen, I had to do it. But yeah, he is doing this thing and then fucking What's Her Nuts from Japan is also there who's like a delegate as well. And she's like, yeah, no, it's going. Also, you seem to have an admirer. And then fucking Sherry's like,
00:36:30
Speaker
Sugawara! Sugawara! Pick me! Sugawara! Check this out! Sugawara!
00:36:38
Speaker
and just really trying to get his attention and all that stuff. You got mine with that. You're welcome, that's what I strive for. You shouldn't. Yep, sorry for the nails on shock board. But yeah, she is, check this out, bitch. And he just repeatedly was like, I don't have time for this, Sherry. I gotta make sure this is all going on, right? And just repeatedly is shutting down a child.
00:37:04
Speaker
um i see you should hashtag don't stand don't stand so close to me um and yeah she wild poll a wild poll but that was a wild poll
00:37:20
Speaker
Honestly, the episode of Glee, where Mr. Schuster shuts down both Rachel and also Emma in the same thing while singing that song mixed with something else I can't remember right now, was the first thing that popped into my head. Don't you come out here with a Glee reference. Why not? Why not?
00:37:43
Speaker
Because fuck Glee, that whole show should have been like to catch a predator. We're talking anime. We're not talking manga. It only makes sense to bring up the show that has a lead that can't read. Hashtag Lee and Michelle looking at you.
00:38:02
Speaker
That's pretty much confirmed, right? Right. That's why, you know, she's got her. I think she had her second child on the way. Um, it's good. She can learn together. Exactly. Um, it's a bonding experience.
00:38:17
Speaker
Anyway, back to it. Speaking of children.
Sherry's Clever Barter for Provisions
00:38:20
Speaker
No, I want to keep talking about how Lee and Michelle can't read. Sherry, the child in Gate, goes up to the very same, goes up to Sugawara as well, and then is like, well, what if we talk or whatever? And he's like, I got to make sure that this all goes. I don't have time for this. And she's like,
00:38:41
Speaker
Well i mean it was sort of being your best interest to talk to me and he's like, come again and she's like well one day i'm gonna be your wife and then he's like, no goodbye and she's like i'm just kidding and honestly be in your best interest to talk to me because nobody here is mingling not a single special region delegate has gone up to a single japanese person inside the conversation and so we can be the first people to get the ball rolling and then you can introduce me to that bitch over there who i don't know what the fuck her name is but,
00:39:07
Speaker
uh introduce me to her and then bada bing bada boom get the ball rolling and so it does we have a whole indiana jones thing where the ball starts rolling um yep and that happens and so you find out that uh she's more than just a child she's a smart child uh yay
00:39:28
Speaker
Then after that, we get to see Zorzel getting manipulated by, uh, Tool. And, uh, Tool, this is where I have Tool, aka Bitch Bunny, written down in my notes. Yep. Uh, and cause Zorzel's like, eh, the peace conversation. I don't like that. And then throws a little hissy fit. And then- Zorzel's Skeletor? Yeah.
00:39:55
Speaker
Zorzel, yeah. Zorzel, yeah. But yeah, Zorzel's a little fucking bitch and easily manipulated. And so they have this whole little thingamabobie that's happening with the king and Princess Pina Colada and Zorzel and the Japanese delegates and they're talking about how well the peace negotiations go. As they enter in, Zorzel
00:40:18
Speaker
excuses himself by not excusing himself and just fucking, as he's walking down the aisle towards the king, goes over and starts talking to his buddies. And so they're just like, yeah, fuck it, Zorzel's gonna Zorzel. And so as everything goes along, the killing of the dragon comes up.
00:40:40
Speaker
And he's like, wow, I can't believe this happened. Fucking nutty, man. And yeah, we find out through Pina Colada bringing people forward that it was a Tommy squat. And he's like, Tommy, the fuck is a Tommy? And then Pina Colada's like, oh yeah, the person who was in charge of that unit who was the girl that took down Zorzel. And then he's like, oh, that guy. And she's like, yeah, that guy.
00:41:08
Speaker
And they're like, okay, so him, Roy Mercury, Tuka, Yao, and Lele. All those people are not my people, except for Lele. And so then they start praising Lele, and she starts getting all this credit and stuff like that, because they're like, they're our poster child now. Her, even though she didn't ask for it, her. She is the new icon for them at the moment.
00:41:30
Speaker
Yes. Yeah. And then it's a big deal. They killed a dragon. Yeah, they did the thing. And it's such a great deal that they should celebrate. So let's make a toast with wine that definitely isn't poisoned. Oh, wait, it is. And then King gets fucking Joffrey and fucking down with the Lannisters and into the next episode. A little more peaceful than Joffrey's.
00:41:55
Speaker
Oh, yeah. Yes. Yeah. I don't know. Yeah. Yeah. Fuck. Fuck. Joffrey, man. Oh, fuck him. Little incest fucking bitch tits McGee over here. Yeah, you're you're killing it, bud. Thank you. I try. You're absolutely killing it. So on to the next episode, we have episode 19.
00:42:23

00:43:30
Speaker
Because the emperor is now catatonic, Zorzal has taken over the throne, makes a whole speech about how he is now going to war with Japan. That includes the JSDF forces who are trapped in all of the imperial cities and like, oh, fuck, we got to get out of here. Yeah.
00:43:52
Speaker
Diablo decide Zorzal's in charge. I'm going to dip and we get a super dope magic battle with some collateral damage. Oh, just a little bit that apparently just happens. Yep. But yeah, going back, Emperor Moto is completely catatonic in bed. And because of that, they need to appoint a successor.
00:44:17
Speaker
who better than the guy who is incredibly easily manipulated. So we get Zorzal, basically the new Emperor. And he goes out and talks to everybody and it's like, we're gonna go out and we are gonna get these motherfuckers and we're gonna make them regret coming into our home.
00:44:36
Speaker
Yeah. And he sets up this whole basically counter intelligence squad that goes out there, takes down all of the people who could potentially harm his empire and his vision, which I think all of his anger is really just coming from the fact that he got the shit kicked out of him. Mm hmm.
00:45:01
Speaker
Yeah. I think he's also just a shit human being because even before that human being, you know, even before that, he's literally was, you know, doing all that. Yeah. Yeah. That not doing all that good stuff. Mm hmm. Yeah.
00:45:16
Speaker
But yeah, Pina Colada goes out and she finds Diablo and he's like, hey, I'm running away. You probably should, too, because this would not end well for either of us because he's a shithead. Correct. So let's be smart about this. But because she's Pina Colada, she's not smart about it.
00:45:40
Speaker
And she goes right back. You've come along. You've come around. All right. Here's here's the thing. Here's the thing. Chuckle fuck. Yep. Fuck you. So nailed it. Nailed it right there. I was waiting for an actual argument and then nope.
00:46:03
Speaker
OK, all right. Here's here's my actual argument. Let me put my notes down. OK, I'm ready. So you got to give me a minute here. I'm trying to come up with an argument. Yep. Let's just say, yeah, that she's hot and then call it there. Yes, but actually she. Oh, oh, I got it. I got it. I got it. I got it. Mm hmm.
00:46:33
Speaker
She's more concerned for the betterment of her people in the empire than she is for her own safety. So she's going to try to take down Zorzal from the inside, unlike Diablo, who's running like a coward. Nice. So she's more worried about other people than her own life, which is why she would put herself in front of another person if there was an assassin coming holding a kunai knife, protecting the bridge builder. Gotcha.
00:47:00
Speaker
Solid argument. Oh, you make it too easy, buddy. Oh, yeah. I've got to kill you. It's all good. Oh, hell yeah. Anyway, getting back to my argument, my point after I successfully won that, you definitely successfully won that 100 percent. We go back to Rondell.
00:47:28
Speaker
Rondell. Mimosa and everybody, they're out at the restaurant and Rory and Mimosa actually know each other from about 50 years ago. Yeah, because Rory all the shit. Because Rory all the shit and Rory gave her a challenge. Yes. And Mimosa is all excited because she finally has an answer to that.
00:47:53
Speaker
And with this, we learn why the gate is a thing. Yeah. So every few centuries, the gods would open up the portal to another world so that more races could come in and expand and be able to
00:48:17
Speaker
kind of evolve the region and make it a little more self-sufficient.
Sibling Rivalry Adds Depth to Story
00:48:22
Speaker
And it just so happened that this time it opened up in Japan. Yeah. Why we have elves. That's why we have the bunnies, the cat girls. So what I want to know is have all of these people in the past, every time the gate is open, is it going to a different like is there like a whole multiverse that it's going to or is it the same? OK, cool. Because I was like, are we that's how that's my understanding.
00:48:46
Speaker
I was like, are we pitching that dragons and elves and stuff or one day, you know, in Japan and then they came through the gate and then that's why they're here now. Yeah, I'm going the multiverse theory. OK, that is that is how I perceive it heard. OK, it may not be correct, but that's how we're going to do it.
00:49:13
Speaker
Gotcha. Cause I was wondering, I was like, they're trying to allude to that. Cause the other people are humans. So theoretically that gate has opened before. Yes. In Japan. Um, I would, I would, maybe not Japan, maybe somewhere else. Yeah. America. Uh, England. Yeah. You know, there's, there's, there's other places. Yeah.
00:49:38
Speaker
But yes, the Rory is like, hey, you got it right. Look at you, which just goes to show that Rory has known the answer the entire time and decided to wait 19 fucking episodes. Yeah. To explain why the show exists. Yeah. Nutty hell. It's almost like the writer was still stalling for 100 percent. Yeah. 100 percent.
00:50:04
Speaker
It's fun. They'll do that with like, uh, you'll notice with big like ensemble shows as we get to more in the future, um, that for some of them, they'll just sort of be background noise, but then two or three seasons in, they'll finally start doing stuff. And it's like, Oh,
00:50:22
Speaker
You're completely different from how I thought you were going to be. And it's like, I don't think the writer knew what they were going to do with you when you first popped up. I like it. That's how season three, Pina Colada would have been. What? Doing something? I can only hope. Yeah, imagine dream. Yep. But after they have the whole conversation about why the gate is a thing, we learned that.
00:50:51
Speaker
Itami is essentially engaged to Lele. Yeah, because they spent three nights together. Mm hmm. And that is their people's way of essentially what's the word?
00:51:07
Speaker
It's like a courtship ritual. That's the one. Yeah. Yeah. That's one. Thank you. And Arpeggio is kind of pissed because her younger sister has now killed her wagon. Yeah. Is on her way to getting her master title. They brought back all this technology like computers.
00:51:30
Speaker
And Arpeggio's whole job is transcribing books and copying books. Yeah. But you don't need to do that when the Internet exists. Correct. It's copy once. Yeah. And she's pretty fucking mad. So she stands up and just bores a big fucking thing on her head. Mm hmm.
00:51:54
Speaker
Naturally, naturally, the the correct steps taken. Yep. Of course. As a person with a sibling can attest. Have you dumped just a giant thing on your brother's head?
00:52:07
Speaker
I mean, probably at some point in the past. Actually, it would have been on your sister's head because you are the older. Yeah. Oh, I've definitely done that to her. OK, yeah. Yeah, you definitely you'll hold on to them so they can't run away and then you just dump it on their head. This is the way. This is the way I have spoken, sir. Yep. And yeah, they decide to have a duel
00:52:36
Speaker
I know that one too. Nice. Activate the trap card. Yeah, Arpeggio and Lelei decide they're going to fight each other and they fucking destroy everything. They're launching each other into buildings. Lelei, clearly the stronger sister. No, no, they're pretty even. They are. It was a tie.
00:53:05
Speaker
It was a tie because an assassin came up. Yeah. But I'm just going to say. I don't know. The assassin came up after the shields dropped. Yeah, they both had their shield did drop. Yeah. Yeah, they were very evenly matched, honestly. But Lele killed the dragon, so she's stronger. Sure.
00:53:31
Speaker
Because let me have this. She definitely killed the dragon. She had a hand in it. Yeah, it was all her. Um, that's not what a hand means, but OK. Yep. But yeah, the the fight comes to its conclusion. The shields go down. An assassin comes over to murder Lele to give the. You know what? Honestly, I have no idea Zorzal is just a bitch.
00:53:59
Speaker
Yep, I could. I thought I had reasoning. Now, the more I think about it, why are you killing the hero of the empire? When you are the empire? Because he's a little bitch, because he's a little bitch, but that is killed by gray. Mm hmm. The trainer for Princess Pina Colada and Shandy is there as well? Who's another night of the rose?
00:54:27
Speaker
Yep. Which how did he get there? Excellent question. Hold on. Checking something. Oh, OK, cool. So from what I have seen, they want to kill Lele because Zorzal is jealous of her fame. Correct. Because he's a little bitch boy. Because he's a little bitch boy.
00:54:56
Speaker
But yeah, knowing that there are more assassins coming, Tommy decides that it's best if they probably just dip the fuck out. Mm hmm. And that is where our episode ends. Yeah. And so also so they literally just go to Rondell to introduce Arpeggio. That is so she can do her her master stuff. Yeah, it is. How did that go? I guess we'll have to see, won't we?
00:55:24
Speaker
But she didn't do it, though. I guess we'll have to see, won't we? But she didn't. There was no time for it. They checked into the hotel immediately ran into Momosa. And then after Momosa, they immediately went out to dinner. And then during the dinner is when the whole thing got set up and then the duel happened and then they left. She didn't do her master's. I guess we'll fucking see in season three. Gotcha.
00:55:49
Speaker
All right. Listen here, you little turd. Listen here. They hate us because they ain't us anyway. Yep. Episode 20. In this episode, we follow Sherry as she attempts to escape Zorzel soldiers.
00:56:07
Speaker
Um, and this we get the only little bit of atomic that we get, uh, which is him dropping a stick to be like, oh, hey, we're going to get the assassins on their fucking toes. Cause if we don't know which way we're going to go, there's no way for them to predict our movements. Oh, then, then, you know, just tracking us down by the giant home V tracks among the horse tracks. Crazy. Oh, who would have thunk it? Definitely not atomic.
00:56:32
Speaker
He doesn't think. Zorzel wants to eliminate opposing people, which is why they put out this whole little ruling thing. We get a little bit of pina colada in a bath, having an existential crisis. They're like, how did it come to this? Oh, no. And the only thing that she has done is she put in place a little thing that's protecting the delegates, but they are confined to essentially an embassy.
Zorzal's Aggressive Policies
00:56:58
Speaker
but they step foot outside of that they are in special region thing and according to zozels the pre then they will be trespassing and then cuz he wants to start the fighting. But yeah, we find out that the marquee who has been super advocate for the peace stuff has been chillin with the toolies in hiding because
00:57:21
Speaker
He doesn't want to get murdered or detained by Zorzel because fuck Zorzel. And before you go any further, before you go, OK? And yeah, anybody listening to this. Yeah, I am begging you. Yes. If you can find the voice actor for the marquee castle, tell us whether or not it's David Madraga.
00:57:46
Speaker
It's not David Montraga that much. I'm fairly certain of. Are you sure? Fairly, because the the voice actor who kept coming up for it was was a Jay Michael. It's not it's not Jay Michael. It's not OK. It's not Commander Erwin. 100 percent. Not him.
00:58:05
Speaker
That is not his voice. We looked for so long. Yep. To try to find who it was and we couldn't find shit. Correct. If you can find it, please let us know. Uh huh. We will eagerly await a response. This is called the arms and we'll see what happens. For favor. For favor.
00:58:34
Speaker
Yeah, no, it was bugging me the entire time. Yeah, 100%. We were both just frantically searching. Yeah, we were wigging out on it. We were like, who is this?
00:58:46
Speaker
But yeah, getting back to Gatay, the marquee is with the Tulis, and Sherry and her family hide out amongst them, and then we find out that Zorzul is sending out his hounds, or his officers, to weed out the people who are opposing him. And they find their way to the Tuli residence.
00:59:05
Speaker
while they are there they pop up and there's a secret passage and they go hey you to leave they push sherry and marquee down into the sewers and then they're like hey grow up big and strong and you're gonna take over the head of the family when we're gone and then she's like
00:59:22
Speaker
OK, bye. And then she goes down into the sewers and her family, you know, meets the hounds. They throw wine in their face. And then as they have alcohol in them or on them, they take the candles and fucking light themselves. And also the people on fire burning the whole truly residents to the ground. The opportunity. Mm hmm. That is what they are called.
00:59:47
Speaker
Oh, heard the people. Zorzal events. Zorzal squad. Hmm. Heard for hounds better. But yeah, they've got fucking like dog heads like wolf. They're wolf heads. Um, really, you have to throw your dog impression in this. Why not? Oh, you could have at least been dog the bounty on her. Come on. Yeah. Uh.
01:00:18
Speaker
I was like, that was a pretty good dog, the bounty hunter. Yeah, thank you. But yeah, so Sherry and Markie make it out. They see the manner on fire and they're like, ah, back. I guess it's us. And then they got to figure out how to make it to wherever they can. And they're like, you know, there's this guy. I really like him. He's Japanese. He might help us. Let's check it out.
01:00:46
Speaker
Um, and also, you know, probably should have brought up earlier. We were talking about voice actors, but, uh, Sherry, um.
01:00:54
Speaker
We were watching the episode and Nelson didn't clip it because he hates when I'm right. Correct. She also- That is my whole reasoning. Yep. Don't know her name, but she, the most popular one that I can think of off the top of my head is Uraraka from My Hero Academia.
01:01:16
Speaker
Which is super cool and love that. And speaking of which, we'll be here and more of her because as somebody a guest, we had the announcement last week for a little teaser and we are indeed watching My Hero Academia. Even too fucking quick on that answer, man.
01:01:35
Speaker
Well, I mean, it's a very distinct voice. And she's also my main character in. No, no, no, no, no. I mean, on on Reddit. Well, post it. Yeah. It was like it was like under 10 minutes, I think. Mm hmm. It was like post nailed it. I was like, well.
01:01:51
Speaker
Sign of a good logo. Thank you. Once again, Maya. Yeah. Shout out Maya. Cool. But yeah, so we are excited for my hero. Yeah, we'll be doing my hero season one and then going back to a little bit of Naruto.
01:02:07
Speaker
But yeah, I'm excited. Well, we're going to do all of season one, I think in three episodes. We'll do, I think the first four and then five and then four, because I think that that is how it breaks up. And then we'll be going back into Naruto and then going on to some.
01:02:24
Speaker
other stuff as well. We'll go over all the episode breakdowns again next episode. Yeah, duh. So we can get everything set down. Hell yeah. But yeah, I'm excited. Season seven of My Hero is coming out right now, and that is it's great. I have seen so far in Dubb, the third episode has come out and, you know, talked to my heartstrings a little bit and I'm enjoying it. I'm excited for you to get to that point as well. No, because shows can't make me sad.
01:02:53
Speaker
Yeah, no, they can't. How's how's no bar? Don't. Oh, fuck off. I thought you were going to go, Sasha, I wasn't prepared for that. I figured I'd throw you a curveball. Can't always be. God damn it. Mm hmm. Yeah. I mean, if we want to talk Sasha, we can also talk anatomy as well. Oh, he's he's a baked potato. Oh, wow. Yep. Wow. Yeah, you're welcome for that.
01:03:22
Speaker
Wow. Uh-huh. But yeah. Looks like Gojo. My emotions have been sealed. Yep. Oh, gosh. Can't wait for us to get caught up at the manga, which also, by the way, I'm pretty sure that it was announced that there will be another Jujutsu Kaisen movie. Oh, I didn't know that. Yeah.
01:03:43
Speaker
I believe it will span some of the stuff leading up to the culling games because there's quite a bit. It hasn't been fully announced what it will be, but probably another Utah movie. Yeah. Well, I mean, he did pop up at the end of season two. Exactly. Yeah. So we will actually minor spoiler, but also not really because it's set up. There will be more Utah moving forward in JJK.
01:04:13
Speaker
Uh, hooray. Yay. Uh, I'm excited. He's got some. Fun stuff going on right now on the manga and it nice. Oh, yeah. The most turmoil. Cool. But yeah, getting back to.
01:04:30
Speaker
They're on the hillside, they're looking out, looking towards the future just like we just did. And that's the segue. Sherry's like, we need supplies so we don't starve. And so they go into the city and she has the pearl necklace that Sugawara gifted her.
01:04:52
Speaker
And so she starts trying to pawn those are exchange them for food and this guy is like yeah i can take your pearls but you should give me all of them and she's like i'll give you this many and he's like well. I'll take your pearls and she's like but you also probably don't want them and he's like no take your mom.
01:05:10
Speaker
why would i not want them and she's like well if you only have two that is the only enough for hearing says i cannot make the earrings that's great and then she's like no cuz women are annoying and you know that we're always gonna want more so she's gonna keep on hounding you until she has a necklace i see you have to keep on finding pearls after you get that cuz one thing is never gonna be enough and he's like wow you're.
01:05:33
Speaker
very smart for a child. And yeah, a little sexist, but you know, apparently Sherry is hip like that, I guess. But yeah, he goes, he takes two of the pearls, goes and brings out some stuff. They are Japanese provisions from all this.
01:05:59
Speaker
and gives them to her, and then she's like, wait, these are Japanese. And he was like, yeah, no, I work at the Jade Palace, and sometimes get some stuff from them. And then she's like, oh, so you know people? And he's like, yeah. And then he lets her know that they change their guards once or twice a day, at least for the time. So that's the best time if you're going to sneak in to try to get away.
01:06:18
Speaker
And she's like, cool, thanks for the info, bud. I appreciate it. And it turns out that I'm pretty sure he hands the pearls back to her as well, like slipped in there with the provisions. So, you know, good guy. Good for a little bit.
01:06:35
Speaker
yeah he appears to be super greedy and stuff but then he winds up being a good guy in the end which is nice um you see some shots i'm at the fact that he's dead oh yeah no as i said we got some shots of the hounds going door to door uh finding some people murdering them just trying to find uh
01:06:53
Speaker
Shari and they make their way to the Jade Palace where it's essentially the embassy that Sugawara is in and the Japanese people are
01:07:06
Speaker
confined to, and the Order of the Roses is standing guard for them against anyone from Zorzel who might be wanting to fuck them up. Or the Japanese, yeah. Yeah. And so that is a thing that Pina Colada hasn't even done. She has given her security detail to the Japanese to keep them safe. Look, look, she's doing things. She's doing things, you see? Yeah, she's doing things that's delegating stuff to other people.
Pina Colada Protects Japanese Delegates
01:07:32
Speaker
Cool. Is that not what a supervisor does?
01:07:35
Speaker
Yes, I she did give orders, which was my gripe with italica, where she just stood there and did nothing. So growth is growing as a character. I can. It's almost like you can't judge her right off the bat. I can admit it. There's character growth. I can admit it. It finally happened.
01:07:55
Speaker
I'm proud of her. But yeah, she talks with the Order of the Roses guards and she's like, let us in. And they're like, I don't think we can. And then she's like, well, talk to Sugawara. I know him. He's great. He's going to be my hubby one day. And then they're like, interesting. Okay. And then they go in and then Sugawara is like,
01:08:18
Speaker
No. Not because he doesn't want to, but because if he lets them in, then who else does he have to let in? And then it's just gonna be like a domino effect, and then all of a sudden, all these people are gonna go to them, and then Zorzo's gonna get pissed, and he's gonna start a war, and they don't. They're trying to avoid war, so it's a whole little thing, and he has to say no to her coming in.
01:08:44
Speaker
Uh, and so the news gets broken to them and then they go to leave as they go to leave. She's like, well, let me, let me talk to him. If I can talk to him myself, then maybe. And so she gets led up to the boundary where the grass is leading up to the Jade palace where like, after you step over this line, you're in Japanese territory and you're safe. And she's like, Oh cool. It's really right there. And then she starts yelling out to Sugawara who doesn't really.
01:09:11
Speaker
You see him up in the window, clenching his fist because he wants to help, but he can't. And then one of the fucking hounds shows up and they take in the marquee and then they start to grab onto Sherry and start pulling away. She's like, look at me. Stop it. Well, Pac-Man for us.
01:09:41
Speaker
But yeah, and then Sugawara comes, I was like, unhand her. And he's like, why? And he's like, she used to be my future bride. And it's like, oh, that's a child. Oh, it's a future emphasis on future. Hmm. Oh, yeah. He says when she comes of age, she will be my bride. There you go. Yeah, there we are. Cotton Drake. Uh, so anyway, she's.
01:10:08
Speaker
Uh, Sherry, Bobby Brown, Sherry, Bobby Brown over here, uh, runs up and her and Sugawara embrace. And so where I was like, you're safe now. And then fucking Zorzel's people are like, yeah, fucking get them. And then the owner of the roses are like, fuck off. And then, um, it ends with them, you know, kneeling and hugging and a war about to, or a battle about to break out on either side of them. Yep.
01:10:36
Speaker
Yeah, so I am interested to see what's going to happen in the next episode. You got a little cliffhanger action, so it'll be cool. I'm excited. You know what we like to call that? What? The final battle. The final battle. Oh, this is the final battle. It will partially be. OK. There are some things that will be going on at the same time. I was going to say, I feel like the final battle should be in between like Japan and the special region and all that stuff.
01:11:03
Speaker
Which I mean is sort of happening, but like it should be on a larger scale for a final battle for a ship. It's almost like that's what season three was going to be. Weird. Yeah. Crazy.
01:11:15
Speaker
Most fortunate. So my questions for you. Yes. Do you think Lilay will achieve the rank? No. You said do you think and I said no. Do you think Lilay will achieve the rank of master? Yeah. Were you surprised that Sugawara let Sherry in?
01:11:37
Speaker
Um, no. Well, shit, OK. I definitely thought you were going to have a yes for one of those. What do we think is going to happen to Pina Colada? Pina Colada is going to be caught in the middle and she's going to try to speak out for people, but ultimately not do anything. What do you see happening with it, Tommy, over the next four episodes?
01:12:02
Speaker
Um, I see him, you know, going from place to place with Lele until he eventually gets dragged into it. And then he is going to meet up with Sugurara and Sherry and help out.
01:12:18
Speaker
Or he's gonna go on a rescue mission to try to save Pina Colada after she gets captured by Zorzal and is being held. One of those. Okay. And now we're gonna play the game that you played with me for JJK. Uh-huh. Who lives and who dies. And that. So let's start with the Emperor. Dead, right? Zorzal. Dead.
01:12:49
Speaker
Let's go with kuribayashi. Alive. Kureta. Alive. Tuka. Alive. Lele. I'm going to say also alive. OK. Pena. Also alive. The blonde bitch from the Night to the Rose. Ed. Tool.
01:13:20
Speaker
I think that she takes over after Zorzel dies. Her little goblin guy. I'm going to say still alive because you'd have to actually show his face in order to die. Fair enough. Sherry. Alive. Sugawara. Dead. I think those are our big ones over the next few episodes. Cool.
01:13:47
Speaker
Right. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, no. Zorzal's homies. The three who he was talking to. Oh, I think that not Justin Briner and the rest of the homies are going to.
01:14:05
Speaker
get dead. Okay. We'll see. We'll revisit this, uh, in the next one. But yeah, I think that just about sums us up for the week. I think so. Cool. Cool. Let's go, daddy. Um,
01:14:24
Speaker
Yeah. So yeah. All right. Cool. Um, so I last time plug Hell's Paradise, uh, finished that, enjoyed that really good show.
Recommendation: Watch Vinland Saga
01:14:37
Speaker
Um, really cool. Uh, since then, uh, perfect timing for watching this show. I have watched both season one and also season two of Vinland saga. I fucking hate you for that.
01:14:48
Speaker
I'm so mad. It's you're welcome. Let me go to my notes real quick. Mm hmm. Is it just a giant middle finger emoji? No, but I do have. Let's see who. So Kureta is in Vinland Saga. OK. Who does he play? No idea. Are he?
01:15:18
Speaker
Sure. OK. I don't fucking know the people. You know, maybe he's a bit roll. I don't know. Yeah. You know who's in season two, though? So we're sure Kaji Tang, a.k.a. Mr. Gojo himself. Fucking love Kaji Tang. Mm hmm. But yeah, Vinland Saga. Great show. Really enjoyed it. Season one.
01:15:43
Speaker
felt very Game of Thrones, but from Arya Stark's perspective, which was super cool. And then season two, a lot of emotional development felt sort of like a different show, a very different pacing from season one, but also just better written. You really like get the characters fleshed out and stuff like that. And it was really cool to see the journey that happened there.
01:16:08
Speaker
But yeah, I highly recommend both season one, season two of Vincent Saga decided for a third season in the future. But yeah, I've watched both of those. And then upon recommendations from you guys, I have also started Soul Eater. I believe I'm four episodes deep in that. I know that it is.
01:16:29
Speaker
a sequel to Fire Force being a prequel, and I'm excited to see how that how that be happening. Animation style is great. It's got the same fan service stuff that Fire Force has as well. It's got weird powers and just like quirky stuff, and I'm I'm here for it. I'm enjoying you for a moment. Sure. Yeah. I have a question. What's up?
01:16:55
Speaker
I always hear that term thrown around, but I'm honestly not in service. Yeah, I'm honestly not 100 percent sure what it means. Um, you know, bubble bath scenes and like essentially like, oh, yeah, boobs or oh, yes. Yeah. Oh, so the stereotypical anime shot is just fan service. Pretty much. Yeah.
01:17:16
Speaker
Oh, OK, cool. Yeah, I didn't know if it was like, oh, the fans wanted this weird thing to happen. So it's happening. So it's literally just titties. It's just assumed that the fans are horny. And so that is fan service. Fair enough. What a weird assumption to make. Yeah, weird. Oh, but anyway, I think I think that wraps up my plugs. Over to you, bud.
01:17:40
Speaker
Awesome. My anime plugs for the week. I rewatched the entirety of season one of Blue Lock. Holy shit. What a good show. Great show. So entertaining. I am still watching ghost stories. Music plug for the week. We're going to go with the laser love by Royal Republic.
01:18:02
Speaker
Cool little band out of, I think, Sweden?
Unique Band: Barry Manilow Meets Metallica?
01:18:08
Speaker
Yeah. And they describe themselves as a mix between Barry Manilow and Metallica.
01:18:14
Speaker
That's some interesting, wild combo. Honestly, I think you'd fuck with it heavily. Heard. Well, you should put on the playlist. It's on the playlist. Very nice. Should be live.
Anime Bangers Playlist Discussion
01:18:26
Speaker
Go ahead and look for anime bangers and Nelson Rex. And I don't have all of the ones that I have recommended so far, but I think the playlist is up to about 20 songs right now.
01:18:41
Speaker
Hell yeah. And we will be adding a link to that on the Reddit and the Discord. Yeah, that'll be on the link tree. So go ahead and follow that because I know how hard it is to find small playlists on Spotify. It do be. Well, yeah, I really hope you guys are enjoying some of the tunes that I'm throwing your way. I know I like finding them because I like to go find a bunch of different genres.
01:19:06
Speaker
Oh, yeah, expanding your repertoire, not writing off a certain genre or something like that. I like it. That would be ridiculous. That would be ridiculous. I was going to say I was going to be like, well, actually, I don't like rap, but there is some rap that I do enjoy. I don't like country, but fuck me. Can Brad Paisley play? Yeah. Yeah. Writing off a whole genre is wrong and you shouldn't do it. Exactly. I've been saying that for years. Mm hmm.
01:19:33
Speaker
Fucker.
Upcoming Episode Plans and Anime Excitement
01:19:36
Speaker
But yeah, I think that's going to do it for the next episode. We'll be watching the rest of Gate, which I believe is four more episodes in the next one. And then going into some My Hero Academia, you'll be I'm very excited for the voice actor game for you and that because there are so many.
01:19:54
Speaker
I am so worried. Like it is like it's one of the new Gen 3. Clifford. Clifford Chafen. What? Clifford, what's his name? Yep, he's there. He is one of the main characters.
01:20:13
Speaker
I was watching. Oh, no, it was you and me playing Orcs must die. Yep. And Chris. Not even Chris Sabat, the one who's like the old mentor dude who you play him in like the war scenarios. Yes. Not the elf guy, but the the big dude. Sure. Not not realizing that was Reina. Yeah.
01:20:38
Speaker
Yeah, like these fucking people, man,

Oh, I knew Gabi was because Awesome Khan had the whole lineup of my hero voice actors, which I'm really mad now because I'm going to try to find you the list of people who were there just so I can also be angry. But I know she was one of them. Yeah. You know who I don't think is? Flock.
01:21:30
Speaker
Block is not pretty sure. I just love the fact that that dude looks like he does and then sounds like he does. Yeah, I feel like he's our age pretty much. Is he? I'm pretty sure that he's our age. That makes me mad. But like also good for him. I'm really happy for him. He I hate him so much. If I met that voice actor, I just feel like, dude, fuck you. I'm really happy for you. But fuck you. Mm hmm.
01:21:57
Speaker
Also, Matt Shipman, also in a fucking blue lock as well. Yes, yes, he is. Yeah, he's a what the fuck's his name? Oh, just kidding. He's a little older than us. 1992 is when he was born. So four years older is 32. Well, currently 31. It's not has been as it's not been his birthday. All right. Yeah. But yeah.
