1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,000 Henshin Inspection presents Going Ultra. This is MJ. I'm an author, I'm an artist, I'm an analyzer. 2 00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:10,000 You can find all my work at mjmunoz.com This time I'm talking about Ultraman Arc, 3 00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:18,000 episode 7, the full moon's answer featuring the Kaiju, Big Mama Kaiju, Big Mama Bomber Kaiju, 4 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:27,000 um, Hamger. And Hamger has a life cycle of centuries, I guess. And the deal with Hamger is that in 5 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:34,000 order to give birth to her baby, to transfer her life energy to her baby, she has to explode. 6 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:43,000 The explosion of a Hamger mother is so powerful that it could kill or it could destroy all of 7 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:49,000 Hoshimoto City, which I would assume has tens of thousands if not millions of people in it. 8 00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:54,000 I don't really know the scale of cities in Japan, so maybe that's part of my problem with this 9 00:00:54,000 --> 00:01:01,000 episode. But like, New York City, which again is not in Japan, has I think 10 million people the 10 00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:07,000 last time the numbers were updated. As of 2001, it was 8 million because that's the number that 11 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:14,000 Green Goblin used for Spider-Man. There are 8 million people in this city. Um, sorry. 12 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:19,000 And those gaming masters exist for the sole purpose of lifting the exceptional up under the shield. 13 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:26,000 You, me, we're exceptional. Sorry. I watched that movie like over a dozen times the first weekend 14 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:32,000 it came out over on DVD. Came out when I was in high school and blew my mind. Anyway, moving on. 15 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:38,000 Excuse me for my Will-in-the-Phones impression. Um, or Green Goblin, I should say. Or, 16 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:44,000 or the real thing to say. Anyway, moving on. So like, I was thinking like 10 million people? 17 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:49,000 Okay, bitch, Japan. Uh, 1 million people? 5 million people? I don't know how many 18 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:55,000 millions of people this cage you could kill. And it's interesting the way it was approached. 19 00:01:55,000 --> 00:02:03,000 Um, yeah, my short I Really Go Crazy, uh, in it. And I hope you check it out if it didn't 20 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:07,000 lead to this full review. And I'm not going to try to duplicate that because that'd be pretty 21 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:14,000 inauthentic. But just to explain. Well, okay, now to the normal minute deal. I'm going to talk about 22 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:19,000 what happened in the episode, what I thought about it, or my criticisms of it, my positive things I have to say 23 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:23,000 about it. And then I'm going to talk about the different approach, which is something I talked about 24 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:28,000 in the context of Ultraman Rising. I talked about it in the context of Ultraman Blazar. And I talked about it 25 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:36,000 in the context of the stuff that I'm working on writing as well. So here we go. Um, yeah, I think 26 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:41,000 first of all, I think this episode might have been message fiction. And I don't know if it's about 27 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:46,000 climate change or global warming or whatever. But one of the problems that people have when they write 28 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:53,000 message fiction is from the from the stuff that I've seen that contains a message about something, 29 00:02:53,000 --> 00:03:02,000 they often will get the broad strokes correct and then get the little details that really matter, 30 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:09,000 that define and contextualize the matter completely wrong. If this is about climate change, 31 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:17,000 which there's a recent news report that I think it's the Atlantic Ocean is rapidly dropping in temperature 32 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:25,000 and scientists don't know why. And I'll just come out and say I'm of the opinion that anthropomorphic, 33 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:30,000 no, anthropogenic climate change is not a thing. If you believe the Earth is billions of years old 34 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:38,000 and there was ice age before, we did not have manmade industry causing the ice age. If you don't believe 35 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:45,000 in such things like the Earth is younger or whatever, well, regardless, actually, the Earth probably has 36 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:55,000 natural cycles. Who knows how much energy or heat is stored within the Earth. There are concepts in farming 37 00:03:55,000 --> 00:04:04,000 and in raising a garden within a greenhouse where you can actually have heat sinks in it. You can have your 38 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:11,000 greenhouse and have that heat sink in it that actually absorbs heat energy into the ground and then it slowly 39 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:17,000 releases over the winter. And because you're in a greenhouse, you're capturing it and you can have heat 40 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:24,000 that you've collected naturally through using the Earth as a battery to hold the heat released over time 41 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:32,000 throughout the winter and even have things grow out of season in your greenhouse by manipulating those 42 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:42,000 facts of nature. That's on a garden scale for a greenhouse. There's one crazy guy who manipulated, 43 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:47,000 he lives somewhere where it's very cold where you shouldn't be able to grow oranges at all, and he grows oranges. 44 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:51,000 It takes a lot of energy and a lot of input for him to do it, and I think it's mostly natural means, 45 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:57,000 but it's like a huge a**hole. You couldn't have an orange orchard up there without being really crazy 46 00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:04,000 wherever this guy has it going. But it is possible. So it's possible to manipulate the Earth, but what I'm saying 47 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:10,000 is how much more so if it's possible to manipulate the Earth on a small scale to do things like that, 48 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:18,000 is it possible that there are batteries of heat energy that we do not understand because we haven't been 49 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:28,000 able to observe, examine, experience on them because we're puny humans on a gigantic Earth rock, 50 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:38,000 and the universe as we understand it exists on a scale that is mind-blowing and we can't even fully grasp it 51 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:44,000 because there are planets much larger than our planet. There are stars. The stars that we see in the night sky 52 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:51,000 are way bigger than our nearest star, which is our Sun, and it's just something we can't believe I said. 53 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:59,000 I don't know. Anyway, regardless of that, it wasn't climate change because it was a kaiju causing it, 54 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:08,000 but then again, this kaiju is a natural part of the world, right? This kaiju naturally occurs and naturally 55 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:14,000 has a life cycle, and I guess somehow it's sticking around on the Earth unsteady. It must mate in the Earth 56 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:25,000 unless it's a, I guess it could have asexual reproduction, and it could just be that one child is born, one mother, 57 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:30,000 and for whatever reason she has to rise to the surface, I don't know that it doesn't really make sense, 58 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:37,000 and explode, and that transfers the energy to her child so that it can do that sometime later after going 59 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:47,000 back down into the Earth and living. Anyway, I got a little distracted from what I actually wanted to do, 60 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:56,000 but I'll get back on track now. It was a really quick turnaround. They discovered what the kaiju was about, 61 00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:01,000 and what was going to happen, and they tried to take care of it as soon as possible. I'm not exactly sure why 62 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:06,000 the skip members were there in town if they don't really have a way to defeat the kaiju or to divert it 63 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:10,000 or whatever. Like, they should have been evacuated from town, that's kind of silly, but they evacuated 64 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:16,000 all of Hoshimoto City. I realize they just called it a town. I used it in town colloquially, not literally 65 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:27,000 like it's a town. Irregardless, skip is there. Among skip, of course, is Yuma, and this is an interesting 66 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:36,000 parallel, but I don't know what it means, especially when I get into it. Yuma's mother, who's dead 67 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:42,000 and who he's having memories of, told him that he should be like, whenever he's scared, he should look 68 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:49,000 to the moon, because the moon is always up there protecting us. Maybe she was a Naka Takuchi fan. 69 00:07:49,000 --> 00:08:00,000 Anyway, so she encourages him to think of the moon as this protector, and then he drew as a kid 70 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:08,000 this Ultraman drawing, Ultraman arc, whatever, with this...he didn't name it arc, he called it whatever. 71 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:15,000 I don't really call it. Anyway, arc comes from Ichigo, but the moon armor, whatever, he drew the sun armor 72 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:22,000 and the moon armor is a kid. That's my point. The moon armor is all about protection. I guess the sun armor 73 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:34,000 is all about attack, the moon armor is all about protecting. And it's able to create solid afterimages 74 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:38,000 of itself, it's able to create barriers and shields, it's got a cool little shield thing on its arm, 75 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:43,000 a buckler I would call it, because it's a tiny shield, I love those, by the way, and stuff. Super cool. 76 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:50,000 Anyway, and what he does is, at first he tries to fight the Kaiju, but it's a little much, a little difficult, 77 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:59,000 and this spirit of this lady is appearing and yelling at him, irritatingly, in my opinion, to tell him to stop 78 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:04,000 fighting the Kaiju and to not kill her, because she just wants to transfer her life force to her baby, 79 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:11,000 killing tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions of innocent humans in the meantime, 80 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:17,000 which is a big problem here, and then her baby will be born in a couple hundred years, he'll do the same thing again. 81 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:25,000 Anyway, I'm going to get back to that, I'm going to get to that very soon. So what happens is that Yuma gets the moon armor, 82 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:34,000 which they've got what, solar farmers, this will be called lunis or lun, whatever, I think, it's the moon armor, 83 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:42,000 and he creates a barrier around her so she can safely explode, it's a mostly peaceful explosion, 84 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:54,000 where she does apparently no property damage, and, I guess, and proceeds to die, and then her baby tunnels into the ground, 85 00:09:54,000 --> 00:10:00,000 we're left to presume, because we're not shown it at all, we just hear a little infant cry, and then the skip members talk about that, 86 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:07,000 and I think Art let it go on purpose, whatever, so yeah, it's a little vague, it's a little odd, but that's what happens, 87 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:12,000 he lets it go, and Yuma reflects that in a couple hundred years, the same thing will happen again, 88 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:26,000 and Art, or Skip's responsibility is to leave records, accurate, robust records, that hey, every other man, there's this guy too, 89 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:33,000 and it's a mama, she's just trying to have her baby be born, but in order to do that, she needs to explode, 90 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:43,000 so y'all gotta find a way to have her not kill thousands, millions of people, you gotta find a way to have her not, 91 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:53,000 like, don't kill the kaiju, let her have her life cycle, item interruption, I'm gonna wrap it up real quick, here we go, 92 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:57,000 it doesn't make sense to let the kaiju just have her life cycle, for a couple reasons, 93 00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:04,000 one, these kaiju are an invasive species, as far as we know, 14 years ago, or 16 years ago, 3 days ago, 94 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:10,000 there was a split open in the sky, a dimensional rift opened, and the kaiju came to earth and started causing some issues, 95 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:17,000 they're not really part of the natural life cycle of this earth that Yuma is on, and that the show Ultraman Art takes place on, 96 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:25,000 if they are not from another dimension, let's say they're from, it was a wormhole, they're from outer space, from another planet, 97 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:33,000 they're still an invasive species, does that mean that you go and you poison and drown and kill all invasive species no matter what? 98 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:42,000 No, it doesn't mean that, that's not what I'm saying, I am saying though, that when, well, when you have to, 99 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:49,000 like the Shigong in the last episode, Yuma had no problem killing them, and the Shigong obviously reproduced, 100 00:11:49,000 --> 00:12:03,000 so he was fine killing the parent Shigong last episode, episode 6, proper episode, but episode 7 he's not okay killing a kaiju because she is in fact a mother, 101 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:11,000 but it doesn't really make sense, it doesn't really hold up, there's too many questions, too many holes in that mechanism, 102 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:19,000 the mechanism doesn't make sense, if somebody was in the alien movies like I brought up earlier, and they were defending the facehuggers, 103 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:25,000 and the queen of all the xenomorphs or whatever and saying like, no you gotta allow her to propagate, 104 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:32,000 that doesn't really make sense because they're just murdering people or killing people as a consequence of, you know, 105 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:43,000 heresically reproducing through them against their will, and that's not really fair, is it? It's not really fair to leave this kaiju to deal with people, 106 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:50,000 or to harm all these people in the future, is it? I don't think so, definitely there's a responsibility to leave records about it, 107 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:58,000 but that's not the only responsibility, and I don't really, I don't really get it, so like this episode really had like a moral feeling to me, 108 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:05,000 a psychological feeling because it just didn't make sense, if they wanted this to make sense, they should have changed the argument, changed the direction, 109 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:17,000 so I have not speculated on this yet, but I will do some minor speculation, because I just haven't talked about Ultraman Rising again recently, 110 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:24,000 and I was going to save this for a rising discussion, but I'll have it here, and maybe I'll talk about it more later, but for sure I'll talk about it here now. 111 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:35,000 In Ultraman Rising, there is a kaiju island, kaiju exist within the world, Hayao may have come from outer space as an ultra, I don't know, it's unclear, 112 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:46,000 but he directs and deters kaiju as much as he can, so they leave Tokyo alone and go to kaiju island, which has been unfound until now, 113 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:55,000 for 30 or 40 years or whatever that he's existed as Ultraman, and even the KTF wasn't able to find him, limited resources, whatever, 114 00:13:55,000 --> 00:14:04,000 however, at the end of the movie, they definitely find kaiju island, but we also know in addition to kaiju island that Yabula M78 exists, 115 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:13,000 because that's where, spoiler, we get the distress call from Emi, his mother, Kenji's mother, 116 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:27,000 so, for whatever reason, the Hayao Ultraman of Ultraman Rising doesn't kill the kaiju unless he has to, he sends them back, he sends them away, 117 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:37,000 therefore, or, and, the fact that there's a kaiju island hints to the fact that there is a natural reason for kaiju to exist within the earth, 118 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:44,000 maybe there's a dimensional rift on the island, they come through there, there's really a whole kaiju universe, or it's on another planet, whatever, I don't know, 119 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:56,000 but they originally are contained to this island, and they can be sent back to the island and not have to be killed, it's wonderful, it's great, let them have their life, however, 120 00:14:56,000 --> 00:15:04,000 he still tries to stop them, maneuver them, move them away, so that they are not accidentally killing people while they're doing whatever, 121 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:14,000 I would think that there needs to be a logical reason why the kaiju are going to Tokyo, 122 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:25,000 Gigantron was seen to go after her baby, kaiju can sense things, I have a little pet theory, 123 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:34,000 Stephen plays Ultraman Rising 2 or 3, there is something in Tokyo hidden somewhere that the kaiju want, or perhaps need, 124 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:43,000 and it's either there for humans or evil reasons, or it's there because of some sort of accident, and it kind of just can't be helped, 125 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:54,000 and it's something that they, they being the kaiju and the humans, have to kind of figure out together to figure out some sort of solution for kaiju to have the thing they need and human resources or not, 126 00:15:54,000 --> 00:16:03,000 to get their cities wrecked and such, so I would think there has to be some sort of logical explanation for why that's there, 127 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:10,000 and if there's not, I'm going to be severely disappointed, just like I'm severely disappointed that the people who were making this episode, 128 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:16,000 I'm pretty sure this is a new kaiju, right, Big Maru of Armor, I still think it's funny, 129 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:28,000 um, Hongar is a new kaiju, and, wait a minute, K-Ding happened 16 years ago, 130 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:37,000 aliens are real, but Hongar is a kaiju from hundreds of years ago, and has a life cycle of hundreds of years, why? 131 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:44,000 That doesn't make any sense, what's going on here? Anyway, so that's, okay, that's two super irritating things, 132 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:51,000 one, apparently kaiju have existed in the World of Ultraman arc for far longer than the 14 years or 16 years ago that we thought, 133 00:16:51,000 --> 00:17:00,000 and two, the creators made it this way, and they didn't have to have Hongar explode like this, 134 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:08,000 it could have been like she was exploding because there's human pollution, or because human noise, 135 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:14,000 or something like that caused an ill effect to happen, an unintended consequence, 136 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:20,000 and like if humans had to be careful to not pollute the water, not pollute the earth, like the dirt, the ground, 137 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:27,000 or different things like that in order to not trigger this response in Hongar where she explodes, then I would understand that, 138 00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:34,000 but, and I know hundreds of years ago, would you be able to have an explosion caused by some human effect? 139 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:38,000 Maybe, like maybe humans were tunneling in a mine or something like that, 140 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:45,000 or there was an original Ultraman had this episode with this Angus Nagiros, the Electric Horn kaiju, 141 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:50,000 the first time he shows up and he's like invisible, he eats energy, anyway, the first time he shows up, 142 00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:57,000 I think they're like blowing up stuff underground and they wake up the kaiju and it comes out from underground and causes stuff, 143 00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:05,000 Nieronga, that's what it is. Anyway, like those sorts of situations and scenarios make a lot of sense, 144 00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:11,000 but this, Hongar, the more I think about it, the less it makes sense, and that's on the creatives behind the episode, 145 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:16,000 and I'm really disappointed, I gotta look up who wrote this and see what else they wrote in, 146 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:22,000 I hope this is the first episode in ARK, is what I'm saying, but I'll look up and see what else they wrote in ARK and see if there's some sort of, 147 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:29,000 I'll just see, I'll see and I'll find that out later, maybe I'll talk about it in the next episode, I'm not sure. 148 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:36,000 Anyway, very odd, very frustrating, doesn't make sense, it's been a fun show so far, but this is just goofy, 149 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:43,000 and didn't have to be this way, and they made it this way on purpose. Why? What's the point? 150 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:48,000 Or were they trying to do something or say something and it was so important for them to say it, 151 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:57,000 that they let the outcome that they wanted override writing an actually good story that made sense. 152 00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:00,000 Anyway, I hope not. 153 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:05,000 Real quick before I go, subscribe to help me grow the channel, I really want to get this channel as big as possible, 154 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:13,000 I want to keep talking about Ultraman and other Tokusatsu stuff, because I love it, it's very fun, I love the spectrum, I love the stories, 155 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:19,000 and I want to get to at least a couple thousand subscribers, and have a lot of people interacting with me, 156 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:24,000 and being able to have a great conversation about these things, but I care about story a lot too, 157 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:28,000 I have a second channel that I'm running, I just renamed it and I got to do some other stuff to tweak it, 158 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:35,000 but it's called Story Over Everything, I believe I have it linked in the back end YouTube channels stuff, 159 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:41,000 but I'll start linking it here as well, but you can find links to everything that I'm releasing on www.imgimgnews.com, 160 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:47,000 the website, and links to both, if you go there you can find stuff from either way, 161 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:53,000 so if you came from Story Over Everything and you went to www.imgimgnews.com you can find Tokusatsu stuff here over at Henshin Inspection, 162 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:58,000 if you came from Henshin Inspection you can go to the website and go back to the YouTube channel, Story Over Everything, 163 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:04,000 and yeah, I'm talking about a lot of books right now, a lot of mid-grade books, 164 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:14,000 I'm trying to figure out how to work out things so that I can write a great middle-grade series of books, 165 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:17,000 we've got the Ultraman middle-grade series of books which I want to check out, 166 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:23,000 we also have Titanius, I think I said that right, Titanius by Titan Goji, 167 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:28,000 whose name I don't remember right now, the real name, but Titan Goji's got a YouTube channel, he talks about tons of great stuff, 168 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:38,000 I've enjoyed a lot of his videos, he's very broad in what he talks about and definitely like a different pace and different taste from me and this channel, 169 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:43,000 the way I talk about things, and I'm super excited because he's been working on this book for like two years, 170 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:47,000 released it, I ordered it, I have it incoming, I should get it within a week or so, 171 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:56,000 and I'm definitely going to check it out and I'd love to read it and review it and see about reaching out for an interview if he wants to, 172 00:20:56,000 --> 00:21:01,000 if he's available to do that sort of thing, that'd be cool, and anyway, I'm selling a Tokusatsu, 173 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:05,000 I even want to read books about Tokusatsu type stuff, and I want to write books about Tokusatsu type stuff, 174 00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:11,000 so story over everything, I talk about stories, and I figured out something, I just had a brain blast the other day, 175 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:17,000 and I figured a way to have constant content over there that's meaningful while I'm working, 176 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:22,000 while I'm not getting distracted from writing my books and finishing them up, and anyway, 177 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:30,000 right now and currently as this goes out, I'm working on Peter Pan, reading Peter Pan and talking about that, 178 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:37,000 but I'm also doing chapter by chapter reactions as well as I'll have a full book chat type of review thing going on, 179 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:43,000 and I'm going to be talking about a bunch of other classic and modern children's literature, children's fiction, middle grade stories, 180 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:52,000 I talk about words of honor so far in there, what was one of the greats?
