Kaizen, which is like, yeah, it has 307 00:14:59,920 --> 00:15:03,280 world building, but none of the characters have opinions on what that world is. 308 00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:08,480 Like everyone just kind of takes everything at face value and there's no like ideology 309 00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:09,600 really in there at all. 310 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:13,280 And it's kind of, it just doesn't feel realistic at all that none of these characters would have 311 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:18,080 like opinions about the way things are run or who is running them or how the world should change 312 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:19,600 or like what the world should be. 313 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:21,360 And Bleach has that. 314 00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:22,560 And that's what makes it good. 315 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:23,280 I got fine. 316 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:24,320 I definitely are. 317 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:29,680 And unless I for some reason sold them, I have the first three seasons on box set. 318 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:32,080 I can't remember where those are. 319 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:34,240 But yeah, I mean, yeah. 320 00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:36,000 And then that's the thing, right? 321 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:39,120 A good thing, it'll go bad if it goes on long enough. 322 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:40,720 So it's like just be short. 323 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:43,040 Like Demon Slayer is very popular right now. 324 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:46,400 I've read that I have the manga in its entirety. 325 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:49,680 So it's like fairly short compared to a lot of shonen. 326 00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:52,160 Like just end it on a high note, you know? 327 00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:54,080 It's kind of just a high note. 328 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:55,840 Well, not a terrible note. 329 00:15:55,840 --> 00:16:00,240 Like, you know, seasons and seasons of it just declining and then ending. 330 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:02,800 It's fine. 331 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:03,600 It's fine. 332 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:06,480 The first opening is freaking amazing. 333 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:09,440 But yeah, sorry, we were talking about women characters. 334 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:12,000 I dragged us talking about how cool this is. 335 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:14,400 But yeah, whatever. 336 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:18,080 It's because you're like, oh, this is just like wrong geek here. 337 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:19,760 I'm like, she's like the super. 338 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:21,040 Well, I just think right. 339 00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:22,080 She's barely in the show. 340 00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:26,880 Essentially her and Orkeame, they're both redheads with big boobs. 341 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:32,560 One's the ditzy one and one's the super like self aware that everyone's like staring at her boobs all the time. 342 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:35,840 Like those are just two typical things I see. 343 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:36,320 What about Yorichi? 344 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:38,240 Yorichi is freaking cool. 345 00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:40,720 Oh, she's so cool. 346 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:42,960 See, because she's like one, it's nice. 347 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:45,040 Look, that's an interesting looking character. 348 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:46,000 She's diverse. 349 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:47,600 And the soul society makes sense. 350 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:51,360 In Japan, it makes sense that it's everyone's Japanese, right? 351 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,680 Because that's like the how it is from the most part. 352 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:56,720 That, you know, they're not as welcoming to foreigners living there. 353 00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:04,240 But in the soul society, in theory, everyone should be from around the world in the soul society and not just Japan. 354 00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:06,720 So there is a bit more variety in the characters. 355 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:11,440 Yeah, I mean, but like they are imagining that the afterlife is basically just like feudal Japan. 356 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:12,880 Yeah, that's true. 357 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:13,520 Which is crazy. 358 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:17,280 Oh, I need to talk about bleach sometime, but I don't think we should do it now. 359 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:23,440 But yeah, I think there is, I mean, I think you're right about like the broad archetype of like how women are portrayed. 360 00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:24,240 Yeah. 361 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:26,800 Yeah, it's pretty bad. 362 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:28,320 Mostly they just don't get stuff to do. 363 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:29,360 Yeah. 364 00:17:29,360 --> 00:17:31,920 They just like don't get a character arc, which sucks. 365 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:32,640 Yeah. 366 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:42,320 Or like they aren't a thing at all until at some point they just conveniently make them cool for the sake of like a surprise like Mary Jane from Fairy Tale. 367 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:43,520 What does that happen? 368 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:44,320 Who? 369 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:46,720 I think it's Mary Jane from Fairy Tale. 370 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:47,440 I've read the manga. 371 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:51,360 I haven't really watched much of the anime, but I feel like she seems pretty laid back. 372 00:17:51,360 --> 00:17:52,640 It's a little bit awful hair cut. 373 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:56,160 Uh, whoa, with the stupid hair ponytail thing sticking up. 374 00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:57,360 It's like straight up, yeah. 375 00:17:57,360 --> 00:18:01,600 Yeah, her, but then she like has this cool power, but it's a while to see that. 376 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:03,200 I don't remember that show at all. 377 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:06,320 Uh, it's the same person who made Rave Master, right? 378 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:08,640 I don't know what Rave Master is. 379 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:10,080 You don't know what Rave Master is? 380 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:10,640 Yeah. 381 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:16,480 When I was in sixth grade reading Tokyo Mew Mew, all the boys, all the nerd boys were reading 382 00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:17,600 Rave Master. 383 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:19,040 Yeah, I didn't read in middle school. 384 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:19,760 Thank you. 385 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:20,160 Okay. 386 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,120 Let's see who's going to be playing Halo and being cool. 387 00:18:23,120 --> 00:18:24,160 Dear, okay. 388 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:27,040 Okay. 389 00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:33,360 Anything else you wanted to discuss before we get into episode 11? 390 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:35,120 I have other things I'm watching. 391 00:18:35,120 --> 00:18:37,200 I think we'll talk about them next week. 392 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:37,760 Okay. 393 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:38,560 Yeah, gotta save it. 394 00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:42,960 And I'll go on like a long thing about how Star Wars Rebels is really good. 395 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:43,440 Rebels. 396 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:44,160 For that. 397 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:44,640 Okay. 398 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:50,400 But yeah, so now we'll have Joe Alredo's lovely script that he agonized over. 399 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:51,440 Let's go. 400 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:51,840 Yep. 401 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:52,160 Let's go. 402 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:54,080 Halfway, halfway through the show. 403 00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:57,280 I think, yes. 404 00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:57,520 Yes. 405 00:18:58,400 --> 00:18:58,960 I can do math. 406 00:18:58,960 --> 00:18:59,520 All right. 407 00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:00,400 I can do math. 408 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:01,120 I can do it. 409 00:19:01,120 --> 00:19:01,600 Okay. 410 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:05,440 Angelic Layer, episode 11 is called The Match. 411 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:07,200 Hikaru and Mal's real fight. 412 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:09,840 If you don't remember last time, you know, they were having that fight and it was a cliff 413 00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:11,280 hanger, picks up right off of it. 414 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:14,240 We open on a flashback of Alice creating an angel. 415 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:18,320 Monika comes in and sees how it's going and Alice explains that she's no good at controlling 416 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:21,040 angels, but she does get mad when her angels lose. 417 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:25,280 Then we transition to a fight between Suzuka and Monika's angels from last year's tournament. 418 00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:26,000 So this isn't Mao. 419 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:26,800 This is a different one. 420 00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:27,840 I think it does have a name. 421 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:29,120 I just didn't write it down in this summary. 422 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:34,080 Suzuka wins that match and Monika and Alice are dumbstruck that they lost to a four year 423 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:36,400 old because, uh, I don't know, four at the time. 424 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:38,400 They resolved to defeat Suzuka next year. 425 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:39,280 Then the credits play. 426 00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:43,040 After the opening credits, we jump back to the present where Hikaru's movements are being 427 00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:45,760 delayed by the device Alice planted on her last episode. 428 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:48,400 Hikaru is really struggling as Mao is beating the crap out of her. 429 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:52,720 Back in the control room, an angry Ichon decides that he is going to stop the match. 430 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:58,640 When Fuji Mori asks why, he explains that Hikaru is being inhibited by a special coordinate marker 431 00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:01,200 which has been causing quantum interference. 432 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:06,720 But before he leaves, Ojiro shows up and we learn that he and Ichon are brothers. 433 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:09,920 Ojiro tells Ichon that he can take care of the problem for him. 434 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:14,000 We return to the match where Hikaru can only block at this point while Alice keeps causing 435 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:14,800 interference. 436 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:20,160 Annoyed that the match won't end, Monika explains to Misaki that she must beat Hadoko to regain 437 00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:21,280 her lost pride. 438 00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:24,400 Misaki tells her that that's weird and they should just be playing for fun. 439 00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:27,520 Then she says that age doesn't matter in Angelic Layer because anybody can play it, 440 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:29,200 which is what makes the game so fun. 441 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:32,160 Mao ready's a knockout kick while Hikaru is lagged out. 442 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:35,920 But Misaki regains connection just in time for Hikaru to land a quick punch right into 443 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:37,760 Mao's chest which does a lot of damage. 444 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:42,480 Alice panics and starts activating her device more and more but it's stopped when Ojiro 445 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:44,960 shows up and calls her out on it. 446 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:49,600 Mao and Hikaru continue to fight while Ojiro explains to Alice that he loves Angelic Layer 447 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,320 and that nobody should be able to win outside of Pure Skill. 448 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:57,280 Monika starts wondering why Alice isn't lagging Hikaru anymore so she turns and sees 449 00:20:57,280 --> 00:21:00,880 Ojiro near Alice and wonders why she isn't ejected from the game for cheating. 450 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,440 While Monika is thinking, Mao is stopped moving. 451 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:07,600 Misaki asks Monoko what's up and waits for Monika to regain her composure. 452 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:13,680 The match continues and Hikaru is using Suzuka's moves which is kind of bad news because Monoko's 453 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:17,280 whole deal is beating Suzuka so she starts to counter them really effectively. 454 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:22,160 This causes Misaki to panic so she starts changing it up a little bit and lands a good hit on Mao. 455 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:23,680 Elsewhere Shuko is impressed. 456 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:26,160 Then Hikaru kicks her out of the layer winning the match. 457 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:30,080 Back in the cafeteria, Hikaru and Shoko are watching the end of the match. 458 00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:35,840 Hikaru apologizes to Shoko for delaying the interview but Shoko quietly states that if 459 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:42,400 Misaki and her mom are going to run into each other whether they want to or not. 460 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:46,080 Which really confuses Hikaru who doesn't understand the context of that sentence. 461 00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:49,760 After the match, Misaki asks Monika if Mao is alright. 462 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:54,320 Monika removes the device from Hikaru claiming that she just had some lint in her hair and then 463 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:54,720 leaves. 464 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:59,360 Ichan talks on the phone with Shuko and tells her that she's reckless and she should take care 465 00:21:59,360 --> 00:22:00,000 of herself. 466 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:02,800 On a park bench, Monika and Alice lament their loss. 467 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:07,840 Monika says that she's gonna try to make her own angel and that Alice should try playing with Mao 468 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:11,040 because Angelic Layer is after all about having fun. 469 00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:14,880 Back in the waiting room, Misaki thinks about how crazy it is that she's in the semi-finals 470 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:17,200 when she can't even do simple vaults in gym class. 471 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:22,400 Honoka comes in and we learn that they're not matched up against each other in the next fight. 472 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:26,960 And then Kaede and Sai both enter and introduce themselves because we have our top four. 473 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:32,080 A receptionist calls them in and Misaki gets nervous to go out on stage to present the top 474 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:32,640 four. 475 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:36,320 And Sai holds her hand and tells her that she's only gotta take the first step and then it's easy. 476 00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:38,480 They walk onto the stage to a cheering crowd. 477 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:42,800 Misaki thinks Sai and Sai tells her that she hopes Misaki will overcome Hikaru's weakness 478 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:46,560 before facing her in the final if she wins her match against Kaede. 479 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:50,080 Misaki is shocked because she didn't even realize that Hikaru had a weak point. 480 00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:54,000 Elsewhere, Ichan and Ojira wonder if Misaki will be able to figure out the weak point 481 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:55,360 that was mentioned. 482 00:22:55,360 --> 00:22:56,960 Once a dently at the same time. 483 00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:58,080 Everybody knows this now. 484 00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:00,640 And Ojira says he'd like to battle Misaki one day. 485 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:04,080 We end on a concerned Misaki wondering what the heck her weak point is that everybody 486 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,240 seems to know as we cut to credits. 487 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:09,280 Oh yeah, okay. 488 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:10,160 Oh boy. 489 00:23:11,120 --> 00:23:16,640 So yeah, because a lot of this was just fighting so there wasn't as much like combos happening. 490 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:22,640 But in the flashback, it's at the third nationals. 491 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:28,160 So there's been three nationals, which I assume it took at least a couple years for it to gain 492 00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:31,280 momentum to even warrant having nationals in the first place. 493 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:35,680 So maybe Angelic later has been around for five-ish years perhaps. 494 00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:37,280 Hey, I have a question. 495 00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:38,000 Yes. 496 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:40,480 When did Shuko leave Misaki? 497 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:41,920 Was it five years ago? 498 00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:43,120 Was it more than that? 499 00:23:43,120 --> 00:23:45,120 I don't remember how long she'd say that. 500 00:23:45,120 --> 00:23:48,720 She's said since kindergarten, which would be like five. 501 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:50,400 So and she's 12 now. 502 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,120 And yeah, getting friggin Madoka. 503 00:23:53,120 --> 00:23:58,560 I could see it being hard to swallow that you get demolished by a four-year-old. 504 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:00,560 I was watching that flashback. 505 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:02,720 Who's barely pie-trained probably. 506 00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:06,400 Yeah, before you hear like she's like, oh, she's got it out for Suzuka. 507 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:09,040 And it's like she has a vendetta against a five-year-old. 508 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:09,760 It sounds ridiculous. 509 00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:13,440 But then when you see this flashback, it's like, yeah, it must be pretty devastating to lose to 510 00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:14,960 an actual four-year-old. 511 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:16,240 Yeah, jeez. 512 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:18,880 Like I would also feel like a loser. 513 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:23,600 Yeah, I mean, technically that's like a mentality that go against the thing you're playing, 514 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:25,360 which is that everyone's equal. 515 00:24:25,360 --> 00:24:30,880 I guess that just because that's kind of how it is, that doesn't mean that the people doing it like that part of it. 516 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:32,160 Well, it just yeah. 517 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:34,000 I mean, that's that's Misaki's whole thing. 518 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:41,440 And like it makes sense, but also it must be very jarring, especially for like a sport that's only been around for like three years to be like, 519 00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:48,240 it's so equal that you can lose to literally anybody, even a four-year-old, which you would like never lose to anything else in a competition. 520 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:53,280 Against a four-year-old, you know, like you can you can beat a four-year-old at anything. 521 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:56,720 I can be a four-year-old at anything, except for maybe Angelic Fire. 522 00:24:57,920 --> 00:24:58,560 I don't know. 523 00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:04,480 My one of my kid brothers, he's like a boy genius and he probably was better than math. 524 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:06,640 And I am now as a four-year-old. 525 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:07,520 Okay. 526 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:09,520 That's how bad I am at math. 527 00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:14,320 I have some notes about the the doll that Alice is making in the flashback. 528 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:15,040 It's now. 529 00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:15,680 Not now. 530 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:16,720 Oh, is it? 531 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:17,600 Oh, no. 532 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:20,560 It's it's it's the previous version of now. 533 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:21,360 Okay. 534 00:25:21,360 --> 00:25:22,000 Yeah. 535 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,400 It's the similar aesthetics. 536 00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:25,840 Eunpio Eunpio. 537 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:26,960 Yeah, something like that. 538 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:28,480 That's that's the doll's name is Eunpio. 539 00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:32,400 I think I saw it on like the display when she was fighting Suzakone the flashback. 540 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:35,200 Also, like I think Alice just always makes cat girls. 541 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:36,240 Yeah, I guess. 542 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:38,960 Because also has popular thing we see in the anime. 543 00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:40,160 Very funny. 544 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:44,560 I also have some like it show when she's making it, it shows that staff screen that we saw. 545 00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:49,200 So I can do a comparison between stats and Hikaru. 546 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:52,000 So I have it written down here. 547 00:25:52,000 --> 00:26:00,480 And the biggest thing is like, okay, so Eunpio is height 70% weight 65% and Hikaru is 40% 548 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:01,680 height and 30% weight. 549 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:05,680 So she is like taking all the points out of height and weight and put them into the other stuff. 550 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:09,440 Offensive power for Hikaru is 80% and Eunpio is 70. 551 00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:14,080 Defensive power for Hikaru is 50 and Eunpio is 30%. 552 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:18,560 And then quickness for Hikaru is 100 and for Eunpio it's 50 and then physical strength is 553 00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:19,520 they're both 70. 554 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:23,600 So basically what Misaki has done is taken all of the points out of height and weight 555 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:27,680 and put them into offensive and defensive power, which makes a little bit more sense as to why 556 00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:31,760 like Hikaru can tank more hits and also dish out better hits. 557 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:37,600 Well, you would think I'd like to see what the tallest and shortest possible versions of these 558 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:39,600 angels are side by side. 559 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:44,320 But you would think that I don't always my points in height. 560 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:48,640 I'll just make them a little shrimp and then I'll be super strong because they'll have the 561 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:52,560 you know points for height go into something more productive. 562 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:57,040 Well, it's interesting the height one would be the weight. 563 00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:01,440 Yeah, because I think it like weight makes sense because so many matches end with somebody 564 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,440 getting pushed out of the layer. 565 00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:07,120 So like even if you had higher points, if your person gets knocked out, you're just out. 566 00:27:07,120 --> 00:27:07,840 You just lose. 567 00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:10,880 So weight actually does feel like something that matters. 568 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:14,720 A hefty little chunk around the player. 569 00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:18,960 Like if you I'm assuming if you're like max weight, you basically have to lose on points. 570 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:23,680 If this was Pikmin, then the best would be the purple ones, the big fatties. 571 00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:27,120 They never get pushed out of the layer. 572 00:27:27,120 --> 00:27:31,040 Yeah, but that was my that was my notes on that is like interesting. 573 00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:33,680 We actually see some mechanics of how the dolls are specced. 574 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:42,800 And they OK, so they are Alison Madoka or sisters, but they don't seem very close. 575 00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:49,520 Like they're both scheming together, but they don't seem to share any like sisterly bond. 576 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:52,400 I don't know, love or something like they're just you know, they're like. 577 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:53,440 Why do you say that? 578 00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:59,120 Well, I just it's weird like some of the system like the younger one makes a thing and then 579 00:27:59,120 --> 00:28:00,560 the other one just takes it. 580 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:01,760 It's like a relay. 581 00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:03,760 It just it seems bizarre. 582 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:10,480 And freaking if you're going to be scheming, don't yell your plans. 583 00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:16,400 And also OK, if one person one of the day is talks, the other can hear it, right? 584 00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:17,280 Are they mic'd up? 585 00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:18,720 Can everyone hear what you're saying? 586 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:22,080 Because I feel like people would be able to connect the dots if you're yelling like, 587 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:23,680 you can't blah, blah, blah. 588 00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:25,760 You know, I don't think there was. 589 00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:26,800 Were they talking to each other? 590 00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:27,760 I don't think they were. 591 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:30,400 Well, they weren't talking to each other, but they were both kind of saying, 592 00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:35,520 well, they have like the scene where Madoka starts a sentence and Alice kind of finishes it 593 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:39,920 from the crowd, but they're both kind of like angrily shouting like, 594 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:44,000 will it be the ones to defeat Sizuka or something like that? 595 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:44,720 Because they're in sync. 596 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:46,000 See, I feel like they're so in sync. 597 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:46,480 They don't need it. 598 00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:48,400 OK, because they're such a good system. 599 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:52,800 OK, the title of the last episode was mean sisters. 600 00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:55,440 Yeah, they're mean together. 601 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:56,640 OK, that's bonding. 602 00:28:57,680 --> 00:28:58,080 Jesus. 603 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:00,160 They form a girl gang. 604 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:03,120 They don't seem to enjoy like they're not having fun. 605 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:08,880 And that's like a plot point like, oh my god, OK, I have a hard time suspending disbelief 606 00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:15,600 that they can like learn it just in that moment and like change their mind and how they feel 607 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:19,440 about everything just by like two sentences from Masaki. 608 00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:20,800 Oh, geez. 609 00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:23,200 Well, I mean, I feel like it's a little bit more than that. 610 00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:24,160 Like it's not just like that. 611 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:25,760 I feel like that's the tipping point stuff. 612 00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:29,920 It's like, hey, even your opponent is saying that this is like they're cheating at this tournament. 613 00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:30,080 Right. 614 00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:30,800 Like they're trying. 615 00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:32,960 They want to beat Suzuka outright. 616 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:33,680 Well, I wonder. 617 00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:34,160 Right. 618 00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:36,800 OK, so like they don't even think they can beat Masaki. 619 00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:38,160 They have to cheat against her. 620 00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:41,200 Like it's like they're really in a desperate situation. 621 00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:42,720 Like they don't seem well. 622 00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:44,000 It's not subtle. 623 00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:50,080 It's kind of like with the bully chick who with the whips because she knew Masaki wouldn't know 624 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:50,560 about it. 625 00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:54,480 But these people don't necessarily know how much she knows the banjale player. 626 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:57,680 So you think they went cheap with something that's so obvious. 627 00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:01,280 They're cheating that she would just call them out and then it all be null and void. 628 00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:02,400 Wait, I mean, they got caught. 629 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:03,440 It's not like they got away. 630 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:06,160 I mean, I know why do they think they could? 631 00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:07,200 But because they're desperate. 632 00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:07,840 This is what I'm saying. 633 00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:09,200 Like this is a bad plan. 634 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:10,240 They say something. 635 00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:11,920 Oh, is it the quantum interference? 636 00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:14,960 I haven't gotten over Ojiro's expletive or not Ojiro's. 637 00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:16,160 Ushan's explanation of what's happening. 638 00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:16,720 Yeah. 639 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:16,800 What is happening? 640 00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:18,880 I was like thought transmission. 641 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:21,360 That's how I guess it works. 642 00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:23,280 Quantum interference. 643 00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:23,360 I don't know. 644 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:28,720 Are they quantum entangling the neurons in your brain with whatever 645 00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:30,960 activates the doll and what's happening? 646 00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:32,240 It's like it's one to one. 647 00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:36,480 That's why your thoughts can like your neurons firing to move your arms, 648 00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:39,600 moves their arms because quantum entanglement is happening. 649 00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:40,960 Is that the interference? 650 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:44,480 Did Ichan make the most advanced piece of technology that's ever been made 651 00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:46,880 to design a children's game? 652 00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:47,120 Yeah. 653 00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:49,360 Yeah. 654 00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:51,360 What? 655 00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:53,920 I can only comprehend so much of what you've just said. 656 00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:56,560 And the other thing happens immediately after he says that, 657 00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:59,040 which is that Ichan and Ojiro are brothers? 658 00:30:59,040 --> 00:30:59,360 OK. 659 00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:04,320 I was like I hinted at it last week like, oh, there's a reason why I keep kind of 660 00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:08,160 referring to him as being creepy too because he's the creepy guy's brother. 661 00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:09,920 So maybe it's just the two of them together. 662 00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:11,040 A little weirdo's. 663 00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:11,280 OK. 664 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:12,560 But he is not creepy. 665 00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:15,120 And also Ichan isn't really that creepy either. 666 00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:15,680 He's a whack job. 667 00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:16,800 He's just doing jokes. 668 00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:18,240 He's just doing weird bits. 669 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:19,040 Insane. 670 00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:20,720 But they don't look anything alike. 671 00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:23,280 How surprised were you by that? 672 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:27,760 I was pretty surprised just because there's like nothing that would make me think that. 673 00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:28,400 Yeah. 674 00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:30,080 Other than he like hangs around. 675 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:31,280 Yeah. 676 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:31,600 OK. 677 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:35,840 And then freaking Ichan gets up like, I'm going to go shut this game down. 678 00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:37,520 And Ojiro is like, let me handle it. 679 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:39,040 And I'm like, you're wasting time. 680 00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:44,160 She could be losing in the time you're spending like not doing something immediately. 681 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:47,680 Because she keeps getting hit a bajillion times. 682 00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:49,040 And isn't out somehow. 683 00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:50,560 That's because she got defense. 684 00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:51,440 She put it in defense. 685 00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:52,640 I guess. 686 00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:55,040 As long as she just gets kicked out of the way or she's good. 687 00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:59,440 I mean, also like 10 minutes, this seems to be going longer than other ones. 688 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:03,440 Like do they extend the time and the health point so it's more entertaining because there's 689 00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:05,120 less contestants in these finals? 690 00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:06,320 It's just two times. 691 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:06,880 You think? 692 00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:07,360 OK. 693 00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:08,160 Yeah. 694 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:13,120 At one point, Monika calls Misaki tiny or Hikaru tiny. 695 00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:15,120 So like hitting her where it hurts. 696 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:15,680 Oh, yeah. 697 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:21,360 Misaki is like a response from Monika is like, we have to we have to defeat 698 00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:23,280 Hanoko to regain our pride. 699 00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:24,960 And Misaki is like, what? 700 00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:25,920 I know. 701 00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:27,040 We're all just playing a game. 702 00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:27,920 What are you talking about? 703 00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:30,880 Yeah. 704 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:34,880 I mean, everyone just speaks so cryptically that she goes again. 705 00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:37,040 So she has no idea what they're referring to. 706 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:38,160 Yeah. 707 00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:42,320 Well, it's just like weird because she is not tapped into like she's competitive in terms of 708 00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:43,680 it's like she wants to play good games. 709 00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:48,160 I have a note here that's like Misaki is just like Goku because she just wants to have good fights. 710 00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:52,880 But she's not competitive in terms of like she's doing it for fun and not because yeah. 711 00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:59,440 She's like scoring the righty or like, you know, becoming like they talk about being like, oh, 712 00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:00,160 shining in the layer. 713 00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:01,200 That's how an idol would do it. 714 00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:02,640 But she doesn't like really want to be an idol. 715 00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:04,320 She just wants to play good games. 716 00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:08,800 So the idea that people care about like the status, I guess it's more than winning. 717 00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:12,480 She wants the vote, the reason she wants to win is because then she can continue playing 718 00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:13,120 at Jellic Layer. 719 00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:17,440 It's not about being someone but the continuation of this thing that she's found that she loves 720 00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:18,080 so much. 721 00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:22,160 It's like the it's like the positive form of competitiveness and none of the negative 722 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:24,480 aspects of being competitive. 723 00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:28,720 I thought it was cool that Misaki is like trying to copy all of Suzuka's moves, 724 00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:32,400 but because she's fighting the person who specializes in fighting Suzuka, they all 725 00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:32,960 backfire. 726 00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:34,000 Yeah, good. 727 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:34,640 That's cool. 728 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:36,240 Stop doing that. 729 00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:38,240 Stop using someone else. 730 00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:41,920 Like you're just an imitation, a pale imitation of Suzuka. 731 00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:43,840 Well, that's probably her weakness, right? 732 00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:47,600 Because like when she changes it up, the thing she does is she jumps super high in the air 733 00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:49,120 in the same way that like Athena does. 734 00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:55,440 But instead of shooting energy ball, she just kicks her because she can't shoot an energy ball, 735 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:56,400 which is pretty funny. 736 00:33:57,040 --> 00:33:59,040 What is the speed at which these dolls are falling? 737 00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:03,840 You would think that's enough time to dodge like from going up high to falling down and 738 00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:04,240 kicking. 739 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:05,520 I feel like you could dodge it. 740 00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:08,960 Yeah, but I think Matt was also in the air and you can't dodge when you're in the air. 741 00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:10,240 OK, I guess. 742 00:34:10,240 --> 00:34:17,440 Wait, there's a part where Shuko is watching from outside on the big screen and she's like 743 00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:19,040 cheering for Misaki. 744 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:24,560 And I just made a note like if you don't want to see your daughter, don't cheer for her to 745 00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:27,760 win because that's just going to be the inevitable outcome. 746 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:29,840 If she keeps winning is you're going to see her. 747 00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:31,840 Yeah, that's what Shuko says out loud. 748 00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:35,600 Yeah, Shuko, you make your weird. 749 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:40,080 Yeah, I understand less of Shuko's role now than I did at the beginning of the show. 750 00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:44,880 And like I don't understand like what's that conversation she has with Ichon where Ichon's 751 00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:46,400 like, oh, you're so reckless. 752 00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:47,280 Go rest up. 753 00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:48,880 Like how is she reckless? 754 00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:52,000 Like why are you I don't understand what these people's motivations are. 755 00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:53,040 I don't understand what's going on. 756 00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:54,880 I mean, OK, she's going to die. 757 00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:56,400 Well, here's the thing. 758 00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:59,360 She OK, you don't want to exert herself so much. 759 00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:02,160 Why is she the only person you're using to test these things? 760 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:06,560 Like, because if you have alternatives that could, you know, they could take turns doing 761 00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:09,760 this strenuous thing rather than one person only. 762 00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:11,760 Yeah, well, apparently Ojiro can't his own brother. 763 00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:12,480 Apparently he can't. 764 00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:13,840 Yeah, what is that? 765 00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:14,720 Is this in the play? 766 00:35:14,720 --> 00:35:15,280 I don't know. 767 00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:16,400 It should be able to. 768 00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:18,000 I don't understand. 769 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:25,440 So yeah, OK, Misaki, I'm getting tired of you doing the cringy like, oh, is your doll OK? 770 00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:26,080 I hope I did. 771 00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:26,800 That's what she does. 772 00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:27,520 That's what she is. 773 00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:34,400 And that's how you know she's nice because she asked if the doll is OK after the match. 774 00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:35,600 It's a doll. 775 00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:37,600 Oh, God. 776 00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:43,840 Obviously, I did not form special bonds with dolls as a small child. 777 00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:45,920 Yeah, but this is like her whole deal also. 778 00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:50,800 I guess this is like what makes her good angelic layers that she bonds with her. 779 00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:54,160 I realized that she had like nothing. 780 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:55,840 What she do with her time before. 781 00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:59,600 She moved to Tokyo by herself where she knew nobody. 782 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:03,200 Oh, that's a first-interesting thing to do in her life. 783 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:04,640 She's in middle school. 784 00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:05,440 What do you want? 785 00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:06,640 I don't. 786 00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:07,680 Interests. 787 00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:09,040 Have interests. 788 00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:12,240 You're still an individual even if you're a kid. 789 00:36:12,240 --> 00:36:13,760 You still have things you like. 790 00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:14,240 She does. 791 00:36:14,240 --> 00:36:15,600 She likes angelic layer. 792 00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:19,040 Now, by just saying 12 years of no. 793 00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:20,640 She lived in the countryside. 794 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:21,440 She never did anything to do. 795 00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:23,040 She lived with her grandparents. 796 00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:24,000 I don't know. 797 00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:25,200 Hospice care. 798 00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:27,200 She loves hospice care. 799 00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:29,200 Yeah. 800 00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:35,200 Do you think Misaki realizes that the device was there? 801 00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:43,200 Because like, not a good like pulls it off and it's like, oh, there was some lint and it's like the biggest no cell ever. 802 00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:45,200 And she just walks away. 803 00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:49,200 But like Misaki knows that there's something delaying that thing. 804 00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:51,200 She's just never going to question again that there's something wrong. 805 00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:55,200 I was going to say if she doesn't know, then is she going to be worried that that's going to keep happening? 806 00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:57,200 He car is defective? 807 00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:59,200 No, it doesn't get. 808 00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:01,200 She doesn't think that deeply. I don't think. 809 00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:05,200 I mean, it doesn't get commented on, but I feel like she has to know something was weird because then it resolves. 810 00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:07,200 Well, they should get in trouble. 811 00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:11,200 They should be banned from competing for several years. 812 00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:13,200 Suspended. 813 00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:15,200 This is why Ojira wouldn't handled it. 814 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:17,200 It's like, you can resolve this peacefully. 815 00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:19,200 I mean, Misaki wouldn't want that. 816 00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:21,200 You can't care? There's rules. 817 00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:23,200 There's rules. 818 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:25,200 You must be punished for breaking. 819 00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:27,200 She should be able to make quantum interference devices. 820 00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:29,200 Yeah, that's true. What up with that? 821 00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:33,200 How does she have access to that technology? What's going on? 822 00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:39,200 See, if this is the longer running show, there'd be some mysterious character who had given them that thing 823 00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:43,200 and that they were pulling the evil strings from behind them. 824 00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:45,200 That would suck. 825 00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:47,200 Like Naraki from Inuyashita or something. 826 00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:49,200 There's evil all on their own. 827 00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:53,200 Let's see. My next note is when Misaki is in the... 828 00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:55,200 They're getting introduced as the semi-finalists. 829 00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:59,200 Finally, the peanut gallery has met her. 830 00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:01,200 Yeah, they're all here. It's very funny. 831 00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:05,200 Misaki, Kaede and Sai walk up and Misaki is like, 832 00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:07,200 Oh, you're whatever is Angel's Day. 833 00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:13,200 She remembers the Angel's names and doesn't remember the day's names, which is very funny. 834 00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:15,200 I mean, easier to remember, I guess. 835 00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:20,200 That's true. I always refer to Athena by Athena and not Shuko. 836 00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:22,200 I refer to Athena before Shuko. 837 00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:28,200 Yeah, Sai, I already gushed about how cool she is, but I said she's too cool for school. 838 00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:33,200 Like, take that school uniform off. You're too cool for it. You're too cool for a school uniform. 839 00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:36,200 My note is that Sai can be Misaki's mom. 840 00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:41,200 She can. She's being nicer than Misaki's actual mom is to her. 841 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:47,200 You think she'd be like icy, abrasive, put up a wall, but she's not. 842 00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:50,200 She's like holding hands. She's so freaking cool. 843 00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:55,200 She does turn to her after Misaki's like, Thanks for helping me out. 844 00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:57,200 Thanks for helping me get on my nerves for coming out here. 845 00:38:57,200 --> 00:39:02,200 And she's like, Yeah, I hope to face you when you figured out your one true weakness. 846 00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:03,200 Sabotage. 847 00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:04,200 That does not elaborate. 848 00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:05,200 Sabotage. 849 00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:07,200 Misaki's like, What the heck are you talking about? 850 00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:08,200 Oh boy. 851 00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:15,200 Yeah, and then, yeah, and then I can't remember because, you know, I have seen the show, but I can't remember what it is. 852 00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:20,200 I feel like it's just more of a broad thing than a super specific thing. 853 00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:21,200 I don't know. 854 00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:24,200 Well, because Misaki next episode is going to be very like, Oh, it's because I'm small. 855 00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:25,200 Yeah. 856 00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:27,200 Because I'm tiny, obviously. 857 00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:30,200 I mean, it's we're talking about he cars weakness, not yours. 858 00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:33,200 You've already proven that size doesn't matter. 859 00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:35,200 I don't, I mean, we'll see. 860 00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:36,200 I don't remember. 861 00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:38,200 God, I can't wait. 862 00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:40,200 Well, we'll get into it after episode 12. 863 00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:43,200 I'm like, I am ready for more action. 864 00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:47,200 You can get so intense and awesome from here. 865 00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:49,200 Well, bad news about next episode because. 866 00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:50,200 I know. 867 00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:52,200 Get that out of normal. 868 00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:53,200 I'm like, Yeah, I wrote me a thing. 869 00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:54,200 No, get that out of here. 870 00:39:54,200 --> 00:39:55,200 Back to the fighting. 871 00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:56,200 All right. 872 00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:58,200 Maybe I should go on this on the summary. 873 00:39:58,200 --> 00:39:59,200 Yeah. 874 00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:02,200 Angelic layer episode 12 is titled Misaki and Kataru. 875 00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:04,200 The two is exciting date. 876 00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:05,200 Ooh. 877 00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:06,200 What a transition. 878 00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:07,200 What a transition. 879 00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:08,200 We're getting here. 880 00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:10,200 It's the morning and Misaki gets out of bed. 881 00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:11,200 Choco left early today. 882 00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:15,200 So Misaki starts vacuuming alone with the oldest looking vacuum cleaner I've ever seen. 883 00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:17,200 I have a vacuum like that. 884 00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:18,200 I have one. 885 00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:19,200 You do? 886 00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:20,200 Yeah. 887 00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:22,200 My grandma gave it to me. 888 00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:27,200 On TV and ad for angelic layer comes on featuring the angel Athena. 889 00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:30,200 Misaki is hyped because she hasn't seen anything from Athena in a while. 890 00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:34,200 And then she realizes she's going to be late to school on the OP plays after we cut to 891 00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:37,200 Choco and Athena trying out the prototype headgear again. 892 00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:41,200 Athena is jumping on some polygons while Ichon and the team watch. 893 00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:45,200 Ogata is impressed that Choco is able to keep testing day after day, which annoys Ichon. 894 00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:49,200 And he demands that Ogata get some tea and cushions for them to sit on while they take 895 00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:50,200 a break. 896 00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:54,200 And if he doesn't, he'll have to wear a kimono and Ichon will be his arms as a punishment. 897 00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:56,200 Choco asserts that she doesn't need to take a break. 898 00:40:56,200 --> 00:40:59,200 And if they don't hurry the testing, they won't be able to roll out the prototype in 899 00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:00,200 time for the finals. 900 00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:03,200 But before she can finish making her case, she passes out from the stress. 901 00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:04,200 Incredible work Choco. 902 00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:06,200 Not backing up your words. 903 00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:07,200 I'm fine. 904 00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:08,200 Passes out. 905 00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:10,200 Immediately goes back on that. 906 00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:14,200 In the hospital, Ichon complains to a bed ridden Choco that she shouldn't push herself 907 00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:15,700 like that in front of him. 908 00:41:15,700 --> 00:41:19,200 She apologizes but says she wants to do as much as she can for angelic layer. 909 00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:21,200 And Misaki, which doesn't make sense. 910 00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:23,200 And also Ichon does not reply to this. 911 00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:27,200 Back in the control room, Ogata is doing his punishment with his co-worker Inada. 912 00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:30,200 But Ogata gets to be the arms and everybody has a fun time. 913 00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:34,200 Back in school, the girls are playing volleyball and Misaki accidentally nails Tameo in the 914 00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:35,200 face with it. 915 00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:40,200 After the game, Misaki tells Tameo that about what Sai said about her weakness, but Tameo 916 00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:42,200 says that she's probably just messing with her. 917 00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:46,200 We cut to an angelic layer practice arena where Misaki is running tests with Ikaru. 918 00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:49,200 Her test results are good and she's bummed she can't figure out what her weakness is. 919 00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:51,200 She runs into Kataru and Hotoko. 920 00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:54,200 Kataru explains that he's taking Hotoko shopping and Misaki says that's very kind of him. 921 00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:58,200 Hotoko comments that sometimes the kind one will only ever just be a friend because 922 00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:00,200 she's stone cold. 923 00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:02,200 And then she decides that she wants to run some tests too. 924 00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:06,200 Hotoko aces all of her tests and Misaki wonders how she can be in the semi-files with somebody 925 00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:07,200 so talented. 926 00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:11,200 Hotoko says that Misaki and Ikaru have something that can't be measured in numbers, so it's 927 00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:12,200 all good. 928 00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:14,200 Misaki realizes the time and rushes home. 929 00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:19,200 Hotoko tells Kataru that maybe Misaki looked kind of down and maybe it's a good idea to 930 00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:21,200 go ask her on a date, which makes him blush. 931 00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:24,200 While rushing home, Misaki buys some sake and food for Shoko. 932 00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:28,200 The store clerk asks her if she's in elementary school which bums Misaki out. 933 00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:32,200 She wonders if maybe Hikaru's weakness is being small, just like how Misaki is small 934 00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:33,200 in real life. 935 00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:36,200 While she's thinking this over, Kataru runs up and asks her if she's feeling down. 936 00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:40,200 We cut to Misaki and Kataru at the park, and Misaki tells him about Hikaru's mysterious 937 00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:41,200 weak point. 938 00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:44,200 Kataru doesn't have an answer for her, but he offers to show her some of his karate 939 00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:48,200 moves tomorrow, and maybe she can use some of those moves in her next match. 940 00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:50,200 Misaki thanks him by grabbing his hands and they get all blushy. 941 00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:53,200 The scene ends and we cut to the next morning where Misaki is making a ton of food. 942 00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:58,200 Shoko walks in and Misaki tells her about her date with Kataru, and Shoko teases her about it. 943 00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:03,200 We meet up with Kataru at the park and they eat, like, three box lunches that Misaki made. 944 00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:07,200 Afterward, Kataru brings Misaki to the karate dojo he goes to, which turns out is also the 945 00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:09,200 dojo that his family owns. 946 00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:11,200 It's closed today so they have it all to themselves. 947 00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:15,200 Kataru goes to change and Misaki thinks about how she really needs to watch him very closely 948 00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:16,200 so she can remember the moves. 949 00:43:16,200 --> 00:43:20,200 Then we get, like, a montage of him doing a bunch of, like, judo moves. 950 00:43:20,200 --> 00:43:21,200 Misaki is very impressed. 951 00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:26,200 Kataru explains that he can improve by maximizing his effect while minimizing his movement. 952 00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:29,200 Misaki asks if even small people can learn to fight like that, and he says yes. 953 00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:33,200 Misaki is feeling a lot better and Kataru decides that now is the time to ask her out for real. 954 00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:37,200 But before he can, Tamio randomly shows up and knocks him out. 955 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:41,200 Misaki is very impressed with Tamio's knockout move and asks to see it again. 956 00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:43,200 Time passes and it starts raining. 957 00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:49,200 Misaki panics because she's left her laundry outside to dry and rushes home, but she actually leaves her lunchbox at the dojo. 958 00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:54,200 Tamio offers to bring it back, but Kataru stops her because he wants to do it, because this is supposed to be his date. 959 00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:59,200 This leads to them getting into some kind of, like, awkward embrace slash grapple, 960 00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:05,200 and Tamio starts, like, stoically talking about how Misaki is cute and straightforward and good at cooking 961 00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:09,200 as if she's, like, secretly very jealous, which surprises Kataru, 962 00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:14,200 but then she turns this into a goofy takedown saying that he'll have to get through her to get to Misaki, so... 963 00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:15,200 Hmm. 964 00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:18,200 Misaki gets caught in the downpour and has to shelter at the park. 965 00:44:18,200 --> 00:44:20,200 While waiting, Ojiro shows up with an umbrella. 966 00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:24,200 He says it's a nice day and the rain stops and the sun comes out. 967 00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:29,200 Then he tells her that he heard about a new system for Angelic Layer that's going to be revealed at the finals. 968 00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:30,200 That might change the game. 969 00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:33,200 Then he says he's looking forward to her next match and walks away, 970 00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:36,200 and it's revealed as he walks away that he was carrying two umbrellas, 971 00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:40,200 one in his hand and one behind his back, as we cut to credits. 972 00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:42,200 Well, there's a lot that happened. 973 00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:44,200 This episode has a, like, despite... 974 00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:49,200 The episodes where there isn't just a big fight montage and I can't just be like, the match continues. 975 00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:51,200 There's a lot of stuff I gotta talk about. 976 00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:53,200 Yeah, well, all the different scenes, right? 977 00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:56,200 Because we have the Misaki perspective. 978 00:44:56,200 --> 00:45:03,200 We've got the Hitoko and Kotaro perspective and the, you know, the camera room, 979 00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:09,200 like, monitor room with Ichon and them, and then, like, Mom, Shuko. 980 00:45:09,200 --> 00:45:15,200 There's a bunch of different characters that we're kind of seeing their perspective of what's happening that we have to cut. 981 00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:17,200 We check in with a lot of people. 982 00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:18,200 Yes. 983 00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:23,200 So you said the co-worker, Ogata and Inata, is that right? 984 00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:26,200 I believe so. 985 00:45:26,200 --> 00:45:28,200 That's gotta be confusing. 986 00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:30,200 It's just like Shuko Shoko. 987 00:45:30,200 --> 00:45:32,200 Inata, it's Inata and Ogata. 988 00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:34,200 Hinata or Inata. 989 00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:38,200 Like, I, Inata and Ogata. 990 00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:40,200 Okay, gotcha. 991 00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:42,200 Lots of hands. 992 00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:43,200 Yes. 993 00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:52,200 Tamayo getting, you know, knocked with the ball and then Kotaro immediately also getting hit with the ball, maybe. 994 00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:53,200 Oh, yeah. 995 00:45:53,200 --> 00:45:55,200 That was pretty funny. 996 00:45:55,200 --> 00:46:02,200 Yeah, because Misaki hits the volleyball directly into Tamayo's face and then Kotaro's like, oh my god, are you okay? 997 00:46:02,200 --> 00:46:06,200 And then he gets, you know, the same, like, treatment with the soccer ball. 998 00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:08,200 It's how we like, it's nailing the face so hard. 999 00:46:08,200 --> 00:46:10,200 Where are you for yourself, my dude? 1000 00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:12,200 How are you just nailing so hard on the cheek? 1001 00:46:12,200 --> 00:46:14,200 Ass is out, yeah. 1002 00:46:14,200 --> 00:46:16,200 Yeah. 1003 00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:17,200 Are we? 1004 00:46:17,200 --> 00:46:25,200 Okay, so the part where they're testing the system of the new system, like Shoko's testing it and like, you can just jump in got a bunch of polygons. 1005 00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:28,200 Is the whole system like projecting a landscape? 1006 00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:30,200 Is that what it is? 1007 00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:31,200 It has to do with the landscape. 1008 00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:32,200 Because that's what it looks like. 1009 00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:33,200 Yes. 1010 00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:38,200 Because normally when they fight in the layer, it's just like a flat ground. 1011 00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:44,200 But Athena was jumping on like some video game-ass polygon map. 1012 00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:47,200 So I guess they're adding like terrain. 1013 00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:48,200 Yeah. 1014 00:46:48,200 --> 00:46:49,200 Well, yeah, I could see it. 1015 00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:57,200 Well, although with terrain comes, how are you going to get all the angles if there's, you know, like everyone's not going to be able to see something if they're behind a big rock or something. 1016 00:46:57,200 --> 00:46:59,200 Oh yeah, the perspective matters, right? 1017 00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:00,200 Yeah. 1018 00:47:00,200 --> 00:47:01,200 It has to be like symmetrical. 1019 00:47:01,200 --> 00:47:02,200 Something, yeah. 1020 00:47:02,200 --> 00:47:07,200 I'm like, we don't see cameras, but they've got to be there somewhere. 1021 00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:09,200 Yeah, well at the tournament, they're like elevated. 1022 00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:10,200 Yeah. 1023 00:47:10,200 --> 00:47:11,200 Like the chairs are lifted up. 1024 00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:17,200 Like in the, when they're practicing, they're all at like the same level, but in the tournament, they're like above everything. 1025 00:47:17,200 --> 00:47:19,200 So maybe they look down into it. 1026 00:47:19,200 --> 00:47:20,200 She, okay. 1027 00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:27,200 So what after she's at Pistole Princess and, you know, she takes off. 1028 00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:28,200 She does some tests. 1029 00:47:28,200 --> 00:47:29,200 Yeah. 1030 00:47:29,200 --> 00:47:35,200 And then she's like, a toko, but, you know, wing woman, she's, she's there for you. 1031 00:47:35,200 --> 00:47:36,200 She just like, Saki. 1032 00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:38,200 Well, she's like, go get her, bro. 1033 00:47:38,200 --> 00:47:39,200 I'm like, okay. 1034 00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:42,200 At first she's like, Oh, you're going to get friend zones so hard. 1035 00:47:42,200 --> 00:47:44,200 She's like, Oh, she called you nice. 1036 00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:50,200 Your friend zone so bad, my dude. 1037 00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:55,200 And that same kind of progression of plot. 1038 00:47:55,200 --> 00:47:58,200 Misaki is running and as she's running, she's like, what should I get for dinner? 1039 00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:00,200 It should be something that goes well with Saki. 1040 00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:02,200 Cause that's what you like. 1041 00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:04,200 So I'm like, you're 12. 1042 00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:06,200 He's like, yeah, my hands going to drink a lot. 1043 00:48:06,200 --> 00:48:08,200 So, oh my God. 1044 00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:11,200 You shouldn't know what goes well with that. 1045 00:48:11,200 --> 00:48:12,200 Like what the heck. 1046 00:48:12,200 --> 00:48:14,200 But I have another note for Shoko. 1047 00:48:14,200 --> 00:48:18,200 It's really, I was going to say, I guess it's just the Japanese of culture. 1048 00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:25,200 Like they're very much more widely common drinking, you know, cause they don't have to drive themselves home. 1049 00:48:25,200 --> 00:48:29,200 So most people like grab a drink after work. 1050 00:48:29,200 --> 00:48:30,200 Yeah. 1051 00:48:30,200 --> 00:48:32,200 I guess just. 1052 00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:33,200 Listen, Shoko drinks. 1053 00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:34,200 We know this. 1054 00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:36,200 This is what we love about her. 1055 00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:38,200 She's cracking open a beer. 1056 00:48:38,200 --> 00:48:39,200 It's great. 1057 00:48:39,200 --> 00:48:40,200 Yeah. 1058 00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:41,200 That's why she's great. 1059 00:48:41,200 --> 00:48:43,200 I have a comment that hot. 1060 00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:46,200 Oh, like we get casual outfits for everybody. 1061 00:48:46,200 --> 00:48:47,200 Yeah. 1062 00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:49,200 Which we haven't gotten for a while. 1063 00:48:49,200 --> 00:48:50,200 Yeah. 1064 00:48:50,200 --> 00:48:52,200 Although I really feel like hot. 1065 00:48:52,200 --> 00:48:53,200 I go needs a hat. 1066 00:48:53,200 --> 00:48:55,200 Yes, I know it's weird. 1067 00:48:55,200 --> 00:48:57,200 She's here without it. 1068 00:48:57,200 --> 00:48:58,200 Yeah, she just has. 1069 00:48:58,200 --> 00:48:59,200 She just doesn't have a hat. 1070 00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:01,200 And I'm like, you need a hat. 1071 00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:03,200 Throw on a hat. 1072 00:49:03,200 --> 00:49:07,200 Oh, how hot I could she wear a cowboy hat. 1073 00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:08,200 That would be good. 1074 00:49:08,200 --> 00:49:10,200 Well, aviators and I agree with more of a bad. 1075 00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:12,200 Oh my God. 1076 00:49:12,200 --> 00:49:16,200 We're aviators. 1077 00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:21,200 Oh, she could be like the freaking sergeant apocalypse now or whatever. 1078 00:49:21,200 --> 00:49:22,200 Yeah. 1079 00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:25,200 Oh, that'd be great. 1080 00:49:25,200 --> 00:49:26,200 Um, okay. 1081 00:49:26,200 --> 00:49:28,200 Misaki, I guess. 1082 00:49:28,200 --> 00:49:31,200 Well, now I've answered my own question before she was obsessed with 1083 00:49:31,200 --> 00:49:35,200 and Jocelyn, she was just obsessed with how tiny she is. 1084 00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:38,200 All she can think about is how small she is. 1085 00:49:38,200 --> 00:49:41,200 The guy selling her sashimi is like, oh, what are you like a third grade? 1086 00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:44,200 And she's like, oh, she just runs away. 1087 00:49:44,200 --> 00:49:45,200 She doesn't buy it. 1088 00:49:45,200 --> 00:49:46,200 She just leaves. 1089 00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:47,200 Oh man. 1090 00:49:47,200 --> 00:49:49,200 Hit her where it hurts. 1091 00:49:49,200 --> 00:49:55,200 Um, she's pretty forward with the, let's see. 1092 00:49:55,200 --> 00:49:59,200 I feel like when they're having lunch, her and Kotaro, she's pretty forward. 1093 00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:04,200 Um, she like puts her hands on his hands and stuff when passing the lunchbox. 1094 00:50:04,200 --> 00:50:07,200 And okay, she's forward, but this seems like an accident. 1095 00:50:07,200 --> 00:50:09,200 She's like, she's like not trying to do this on purpose. 1096 00:50:09,200 --> 00:50:13,200 No, but she's also delayed awareness of things. 1097 00:50:13,200 --> 00:50:14,200 Yeah. 1098 00:50:14,200 --> 00:50:15,200 Okay. 1099 00:50:15,200 --> 00:50:18,200 I have a note like when they first talk in the park before they set up the date. 1100 00:50:18,200 --> 00:50:22,200 Um, Kotaro stands up and he's like, yeah, I don't know what the car is weaknesses, 1101 00:50:22,200 --> 00:50:27,200 but like maybe you can see my judo sometimes and he like walks over to some birds and then 1102 00:50:27,200 --> 00:50:32,200 Misaki walks up to some birds and she like kneels down and she's going to pet the birds 1103 00:50:32,200 --> 00:50:33,200 and they fly away. 1104 00:50:33,200 --> 00:50:36,200 Are you going to pet those birds Misaki? 1105 00:50:36,200 --> 00:50:37,200 What are you doing? 1106 00:50:37,200 --> 00:50:39,200 Yeah, that's probably not advisable. 1107 00:50:39,200 --> 00:50:42,200 Why was she going to try to pet those birds? 1108 00:50:42,200 --> 00:50:44,200 Oh no, I don't know. 1109 00:50:44,200 --> 00:50:47,200 Um, I used to just want to stare at them. 1110 00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:48,200 Okay. 1111 00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:51,200 But then they set up a date and then, and then it's the next morning and I have the most 1112 00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:52,200 unhinged note. 1113 00:50:52,200 --> 00:50:53,200 Okay. 1114 00:50:53,200 --> 00:50:54,200 You, you referenced this. 1115 00:50:54,200 --> 00:50:57,200 I think Shoko says, I sent you a message about this. 1116 00:50:57,200 --> 00:50:58,200 Okay. 1117 00:50:58,200 --> 00:51:02,200 So in the morning, like Misaki's making like a shit ton of food to like bring on her like 1118 00:51:02,200 --> 00:51:05,200 they call it a date. 1119 00:51:05,200 --> 00:51:06,200 It's not really a date. 1120 00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:07,200 Meetup. 1121 00:51:07,200 --> 00:51:08,200 Yeah. 1122 00:51:08,200 --> 00:51:12,200 The meetup and Shoko is like, or she's like, oh yeah, I'm going to like meet up with Katara 1123 00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:14,200 at the park and Shoko is like, oh Katara. 1124 00:51:14,200 --> 00:51:18,200 Oh, that boy who was given a gyaku evi by the girl in the layer. 1125 00:51:18,200 --> 00:51:19,200 Right. 1126 00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:21,200 But look to some, because Misaki makes a joke. 1127 00:51:21,200 --> 00:51:23,200 Misaki's like, oh, what is that? 1128 00:51:23,200 --> 00:51:25,200 Isn't that like a, like a way to fry shrimp or something? 1129 00:51:25,200 --> 00:51:28,200 And then Shoko like hugs her and is like, oh, that, there it is innocent. 1130 00:51:28,200 --> 00:51:30,200 Misaki, we love that. 1131 00:51:30,200 --> 00:51:31,200 Oh God. 1132 00:51:31,200 --> 00:51:32,200 What is it? 1133 00:51:32,200 --> 00:51:33,200 It's two things. 1134 00:51:33,200 --> 00:51:37,200 First, a gyaku evi is like some kind of judo move. 1135 00:51:37,200 --> 00:51:38,200 Like it's called like a shrimp move. 1136 00:51:38,200 --> 00:51:39,200 Right. 1137 00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:41,200 I was going to say evi that is shrimp. 1138 00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:42,200 Yeah. 1139 00:51:42,200 --> 00:51:45,200 It's a like a judo move to break out of a hold, I guess. 1140 00:51:45,200 --> 00:51:47,200 And it was kind of hard to look this up. 1141 00:51:47,200 --> 00:51:49,200 That's one thing that it is. 1142 00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:55,200 The other thing that it is is a like specific pattern in Shibari. 1143 00:51:55,200 --> 00:51:57,200 Like the rope bondage. 1144 00:51:57,200 --> 00:51:58,200 Oh dear. 1145 00:51:58,200 --> 00:51:59,200 Yep. 1146 00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:00,200 Yep. 1147 00:52:00,200 --> 00:52:01,200 Oh. 1148 00:52:01,200 --> 00:52:02,200 Where you like tie people's arms behind their back. 1149 00:52:02,200 --> 00:52:06,200 And it kind of feels to me like maybe that's the thing Shoko's talking about. 1150 00:52:06,200 --> 00:52:07,200 Oh dear. 1151 00:52:07,200 --> 00:52:08,200 That's probably it. 1152 00:52:08,200 --> 00:52:12,200 Shoko's going to know like this weird judo break out of a hold move. 1153 00:52:12,200 --> 00:52:14,200 And I'm like Shoko, why are you talking about bonding? 1154 00:52:14,200 --> 00:52:17,200 Why do you know a specific bondage pattern? 1155 00:52:17,200 --> 00:52:18,200 Oh, she's freaky. 1156 00:52:18,200 --> 00:52:19,200 She's not a parent. 1157 00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:20,200 Oh man. 1158 00:52:20,200 --> 00:52:21,200 The thing is. 1159 00:52:21,200 --> 00:52:22,200 Hell yeah. 1160 00:52:22,200 --> 00:52:23,200 Get it Shoko. 1161 00:52:23,200 --> 00:52:24,200 Get an age Shoko. 1162 00:52:24,200 --> 00:52:25,200 Well. 1163 00:52:25,200 --> 00:52:28,200 Talk to your niece about this. 1164 00:52:28,200 --> 00:52:29,200 Yeah. 1165 00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:30,200 She doesn't know what it is. 1166 00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:32,200 And you're like, oh, how cute, how innocent you are. 1167 00:52:32,200 --> 00:52:33,200 Shoko, what are you up to? 1168 00:52:33,200 --> 00:52:34,200 Yeah. 1169 00:52:34,200 --> 00:52:36,200 Of course you shouldn't know what that is at the age of 12. 1170 00:52:36,200 --> 00:52:38,200 Yeah. 1171 00:52:38,200 --> 00:52:41,200 When in Western stuff, there's jokes that go over kids heads, 1172 00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:45,200 but not that explicitly referring to it as more vague in new 1173 00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:48,200 endos, but that's just straight to now. 1174 00:52:48,200 --> 00:52:52,200 That just makes you think of that documentary about army hammer 1175 00:52:52,200 --> 00:52:54,200 because he was into that. 1176 00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:56,200 Shabari thing. 1177 00:52:56,200 --> 00:53:00,200 It's just, I looked, I'm like, I have to look this up. 1178 00:53:00,200 --> 00:53:03,200 And then I, the first thing I got was like the bondage thing. 1179 00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:06,200 And I'm like, whoa. 1180 00:53:06,200 --> 00:53:09,200 But then I got like some YouTube video for like judo exercises. 1181 00:53:09,200 --> 00:53:11,200 I'm like, okay, maybe it's this. 1182 00:53:11,200 --> 00:53:13,200 I don't know. 1183 00:53:13,200 --> 00:53:14,200 I have no idea. 1184 00:53:14,200 --> 00:53:16,200 You didn't know what you're getting yourself into. 1185 00:53:16,200 --> 00:53:18,200 Google will now remember that you look that up. 1186 00:53:18,200 --> 00:53:23,200 It seems more likely to me that Shoko knows about Shabari than 1187 00:53:23,200 --> 00:53:25,200 about judo. 1188 00:53:25,200 --> 00:53:27,200 Just based on what we know about. 1189 00:53:27,200 --> 00:53:28,200 100%. 1190 00:53:28,200 --> 00:53:30,200 It's Shoko's wild. 1191 00:53:30,200 --> 00:53:33,200 See, that's why I'm saying she's got this 12 year old at her 1192 00:53:33,200 --> 00:53:35,200 bachelor pad now. 1193 00:53:35,200 --> 00:53:39,200 So maybe that's what the extra bedroom she had was for. 1194 00:53:39,200 --> 00:53:42,200 This was my rope room. 1195 00:53:42,200 --> 00:53:44,200 Oh God. 1196 00:53:44,200 --> 00:53:45,200 Yeah. 1197 00:53:45,200 --> 00:53:46,200 What? 1198 00:53:46,200 --> 00:53:47,200 What a wild joke. 1199 00:53:47,200 --> 00:53:48,200 Wild. 1200 00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:50,200 Oh God. 1201 00:53:50,200 --> 00:53:53,200 Anyway, Masaki goes on this date and she's like, oh, we should like 1202 00:53:53,200 --> 00:53:56,200 eat at the park and she just sits there and watches Katara eat. 1203 00:53:56,200 --> 00:53:57,200 She doesn't eat anything. 1204 00:53:57,200 --> 00:53:58,200 What's happening? 1205 00:53:58,200 --> 00:53:59,200 What's up with that? 1206 00:53:59,200 --> 00:54:00,200 What is it? 1207 00:54:00,200 --> 00:54:01,200 Oh my God. 1208 00:54:01,200 --> 00:54:04,200 I'm sure she eats at, but she's like trying to like gauge his 1209 00:54:04,200 --> 00:54:05,200 opinion of it. 1210 00:54:05,200 --> 00:54:08,200 But it just literally, she's just sitting there watching him eat 1211 00:54:08,200 --> 00:54:09,200 for like a minute. 1212 00:54:09,200 --> 00:54:10,200 Yeah. 1213 00:54:10,200 --> 00:54:12,200 She's very intently watching him. 1214 00:54:12,200 --> 00:54:17,200 Like when he's doing his little judo stuff, she's staring at him. 1215 00:54:17,200 --> 00:54:20,200 So I feel so self conscious if I was him. 1216 00:54:20,200 --> 00:54:21,200 Like I feel stupid. 1217 00:54:21,200 --> 00:54:25,200 Like I'm just punching in the air at nothing. 1218 00:54:25,200 --> 00:54:29,200 It's so funny to me that like his version of having a date is like, hey, 1219 00:54:29,200 --> 00:54:31,200 want to go see my cool judo moves? 1220 00:54:31,200 --> 00:54:37,200 It turns out Masaki is like super into it. 1221 00:54:37,200 --> 00:54:38,200 Yeah, she is. 1222 00:54:38,200 --> 00:54:42,200 It's like a subtle way for him to be like, look at this giant place 1223 00:54:42,200 --> 00:54:43,200 my family owns. 1224 00:54:43,200 --> 00:54:44,200 I'm rich. 1225 00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:45,200 Like, look at me. 1226 00:54:45,200 --> 00:54:47,200 I'm a big deal. 1227 00:54:47,200 --> 00:54:51,200 They have a huge property. 1228 00:54:51,200 --> 00:54:55,200 And this is probably where Hotoko gets all her fighting knowledge 1229 00:54:55,200 --> 00:54:57,200 from her family runs a jupe suit. 1230 00:54:57,200 --> 00:54:59,200 That's probably that's probably true. 1231 00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:01,200 But she's not doing judo. 1232 00:55:01,200 --> 00:55:03,200 Like Susaka is not doing judo moves. 1233 00:55:03,200 --> 00:55:05,200 She does like throwing and stuff. 1234 00:55:05,200 --> 00:55:06,200 Yeah. 1235 00:55:06,200 --> 00:55:07,200 Oh God. 1236 00:55:07,200 --> 00:55:09,200 Susaka is so cool. 1237 00:55:09,200 --> 00:55:13,200 I feel like I feel like Hotoko is just watching like martial arts 1238 00:55:13,200 --> 00:55:14,200 movies or something. 1239 00:55:14,200 --> 00:55:15,200 Yeah. 1240 00:55:15,200 --> 00:55:18,200 Or anime and she's just recreating all the same things that can't be 1241 00:55:18,200 --> 00:55:21,200 in real life, but she now can with. 1242 00:55:21,200 --> 00:55:24,200 She did make it like a sexy ninja doll as a four year old. 1243 00:55:24,200 --> 00:55:25,200 That's true. 1244 00:55:25,200 --> 00:55:31,200 She's been influenced by adult media. 1245 00:55:31,200 --> 00:55:32,200 Yeah. 1246 00:55:32,200 --> 00:55:34,200 I bet she's like a cinephile. 1247 00:55:34,200 --> 00:55:37,200 That's my head cannon for Hotoko. 1248 00:55:37,200 --> 00:55:43,200 She's just like watching like AFI's top 100 movies. 1249 00:55:43,200 --> 00:55:46,200 She's like watching all the Kirikura Sawa movies. 1250 00:55:46,200 --> 00:55:48,200 She's like hell yeah. 1251 00:55:48,200 --> 00:55:49,200 Samurai movies rule. 1252 00:55:49,200 --> 00:55:51,200 I'm four. 1253 00:55:51,200 --> 00:55:56,200 So what did you think of the Tamayo thing? 1254 00:55:56,200 --> 00:55:57,200 Okay. 1255 00:55:57,200 --> 00:55:58,200 What's going on here? 1256 00:55:58,200 --> 00:55:59,200 Okay. 1257 00:55:59,200 --> 00:56:01,200 First off, it's very funny when she shows up and then she knocks 1258 00:56:01,200 --> 00:56:04,200 Katara out and then Misaki is immediately like, oh, that's a 1259 00:56:04,200 --> 00:56:05,200 good takedown. 1260 00:56:05,200 --> 00:56:07,200 Can you show me that takedown a couple more times? 1261 00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:09,200 Like she doesn't care at all. 1262 00:56:09,200 --> 00:56:12,200 That Misaki like that the date is over. 1263 00:56:12,200 --> 00:56:13,200 I don't. 1264 00:56:13,200 --> 00:56:15,200 This is why I'm saying that like I don't know if she really 1265 00:56:15,200 --> 00:56:16,200 did a date. 1266 00:56:16,200 --> 00:56:17,200 No. 1267 00:56:17,200 --> 00:56:18,200 Misaki. 1268 00:56:18,200 --> 00:56:19,200 Okay. 1269 00:56:19,200 --> 00:56:20,200 She just doesn't care that Tamayo shows up. 1270 00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:24,200 I think maybe Katara likes her, but she's only nervous because 1271 00:56:24,200 --> 00:56:28,200 it's her, you know, like talking with a boy who's not family is a 1272 00:56:28,200 --> 00:56:33,200 thing to be embarrassed about not because it's him in particular. 1273 00:56:33,200 --> 00:56:34,200 Yeah. 1274 00:56:34,200 --> 00:56:37,200 She's just kind of nervous to talk to everyone, even like 1275 00:56:37,200 --> 00:56:38,200 signing stuff. 1276 00:56:38,200 --> 00:56:40,200 Well, I mean, she's still this. 1277 00:56:40,200 --> 00:56:43,200 I mean, she's she's the shelter girl who's like, oh, Hotoko 1278 00:56:43,200 --> 00:56:48,200 referenced kissing how scandalous and it was like, what? 1279 00:56:48,200 --> 00:56:53,200 She's over here watching all these, all these samurai movies, dude. 1280 00:56:53,200 --> 00:56:54,200 That's right. 1281 00:56:54,200 --> 00:56:56,200 She's watching Kill Bill over there. 1282 00:56:56,200 --> 00:57:00,200 She's watching Kill Bill. 1283 00:57:00,200 --> 00:57:02,200 Gonna hear Misaki's hot or not. 1284 00:57:02,200 --> 00:57:07,200 I didn't hear Hotoko's hot takes about pulp fiction or whatever. 1285 00:57:07,200 --> 00:57:08,200 Oh dear. 1286 00:57:08,200 --> 00:57:09,200 Okay. 1287 00:57:09,200 --> 00:57:12,200 But yeah, Tamayo, what do you think? 1288 00:57:12,200 --> 00:57:14,200 What is this implying? 1289 00:57:14,200 --> 00:57:18,200 It's well, obviously it's I mean, it's implying that she likes him, 1290 00:57:18,200 --> 00:57:19,200 right? 1291 00:57:19,200 --> 00:57:21,200 That Tamayo likes Katara. 1292 00:57:21,200 --> 00:57:22,200 Yeah. 1293 00:57:22,200 --> 00:57:26,200 Which feels it's kind of the opposite where like typically a boy 1294 00:57:26,200 --> 00:57:29,200 picks on a girl as kids is the sign of liking them. 1295 00:57:29,200 --> 00:57:33,200 But Tamayo just being a shit of Katara is her way of flirting. 1296 00:57:33,200 --> 00:57:35,200 This is what you said you did earlier, right? 1297 00:57:35,200 --> 00:57:36,200 Well, I don't know. 1298 00:57:36,200 --> 00:57:39,200 Well, it's more like embarrassment. 1299 00:57:39,200 --> 00:57:43,200 Like some boy, I think I had like a grungy gym shirt that had a hole in 1300 00:57:43,200 --> 00:57:45,200 the armpit and he's like, oh, I like that. 1301 00:57:45,200 --> 00:57:47,200 And then I like kicked him in the shin. 1302 00:57:47,200 --> 00:57:51,200 I was like, got to talk to me about stuff like that. 1303 00:57:51,200 --> 00:57:52,200 That's not flirting. 1304 00:57:52,200 --> 00:57:53,200 All right. 1305 00:57:53,200 --> 00:57:54,200 I don't know. 1306 00:57:54,200 --> 00:57:59,200 One boy tried to play footsie with me at driving or yeah, driving 1307 00:57:59,200 --> 00:58:02,200 and I just stomped on his foot. 1308 00:58:02,200 --> 00:58:03,200 Okay. 1309 00:58:03,200 --> 00:58:04,200 So you're like 16. 1310 00:58:04,200 --> 00:58:06,200 This is like you're in like late teams. 1311 00:58:06,200 --> 00:58:07,200 Okay. 1312 00:58:07,200 --> 00:58:08,200 Yeah. 1313 00:58:08,200 --> 00:58:09,200 So someone tried to play footsie. 1314 00:58:09,200 --> 00:58:11,200 I just stomped on their foot. 1315 00:58:11,200 --> 00:58:15,200 That's my how I respond to physical initiation. 1316 00:58:15,200 --> 00:58:17,200 This is not like this. 1317 00:58:17,200 --> 00:58:18,200 All right. 1318 00:58:18,200 --> 00:58:19,200 Yeah. 1319 00:58:19,200 --> 00:58:24,200 So yeah, I actually, but the thing is like she transitioned it so quickly into like 1320 00:58:24,200 --> 00:58:25,200 a joke. 1321 00:58:25,200 --> 00:58:26,200 Yes. 1322 00:58:26,200 --> 00:58:28,200 Well, that's what their relationship is. 1323 00:58:28,200 --> 00:58:29,200 Right. 1324 00:58:29,200 --> 00:58:32,200 And it's like, oh, he's going to get weirded out if I'm all serious all of a sudden. 1325 00:58:32,200 --> 00:58:35,200 Well, but this, this gets like a, this is like a pretty good gambit by the show. 1326 00:58:35,200 --> 00:58:37,200 I feel like, because the show leaves it kind of ambiguous, right? 1327 00:58:37,200 --> 00:58:41,200 Because Tommy was like such a bit character, like such a comic relief that it's like, this 1328 00:58:41,200 --> 00:58:46,200 could just be like a one-off bit she's doing, or this could be like, oh, she's finally like 1329 00:58:46,200 --> 00:58:49,200 showing her emotions about a thing and then backs off of it because she feels awkward 1330 00:58:49,200 --> 00:58:50,200 about it. 1331 00:58:50,200 --> 00:58:51,200 Yeah. 1332 00:58:51,200 --> 00:58:55,200 Well, cause she's in the past said like, oh, Masaki should be my wife, but I guess she's 1333 00:58:55,200 --> 00:58:59,200 just essentially in her mind building Masaki up to be this, you know, ultra feminine, like 1334 00:58:59,200 --> 00:59:03,200 what you expect a girl to be, which is so different from her. 1335 00:59:03,200 --> 00:59:06,200 And of course that's why Katara likes her because she's so different. 1336 00:59:06,200 --> 00:59:11,200 Well, but I mean, like she, like Masaki is the kind of like ideal feminine wife. 1337 00:59:11,200 --> 00:59:14,200 I mean, this is like Shoko's even like, oh, you're, you'd be like, why don't you be 1338 00:59:14,200 --> 00:59:15,200 my wife? 1339 00:59:15,200 --> 00:59:18,200 Because like, yeah, she cooks, she cleans, she wakes up in the morning and immediately 1340 00:59:18,200 --> 00:59:19,200 starts vacuuming. 1341 00:59:19,200 --> 00:59:24,200 I was like, maybe and Shoko woke up and was like, ooh, is this food for me? 1342 00:59:24,200 --> 00:59:27,200 And Masaki having to be like, keep your hands off it. 1343 00:59:27,200 --> 00:59:28,200 Yeah. 1344 00:59:28,200 --> 00:59:29,200 But like she, she is doing this. 1345 00:59:29,200 --> 00:59:32,200 I mean, this is like, I mean, she's even like shy, intimidated. 1346 00:59:32,200 --> 00:59:36,200 It does kind of like feminine, ideally kind of outspoken. 1347 00:59:36,200 --> 00:59:37,200 Yeah. 1348 00:59:37,200 --> 00:59:40,200 At least like in Japan, I know that that's kind of a demure passive. 1349 00:59:40,200 --> 00:59:41,200 Yeah. 1350 00:59:41,200 --> 00:59:42,200 Like she is all that stuff. 1351 00:59:42,200 --> 00:59:47,200 She kind of is the ideal like passive girlfriend a little bit. 1352 00:59:47,200 --> 00:59:48,200 Yeah. 1353 00:59:48,200 --> 00:59:51,200 That Tamiya was not like a Tamiya was like the opposite of that where she's like big 1354 00:59:51,200 --> 00:59:55,200 and loud and assertive and physical and funny. 1355 00:59:55,200 --> 00:59:56,200 I don't know. 1356 00:59:56,200 --> 00:59:57,200 Yeah. 1357 00:59:57,200 --> 00:59:58,200 She's been very enjoyable. 1358 00:59:58,200 --> 01:00:03,200 This has been very different than any other mode because she's never been serious like 1359 01:00:03,200 --> 01:00:05,200 ever in the show up to this point. 1360 01:00:05,200 --> 01:00:06,200 Right. 1361 01:00:06,200 --> 01:00:07,200 Yeah. 1362 01:00:07,200 --> 01:00:09,200 And I think it's like, it's actually some pretty good ambiguity in terms of like, is 1363 01:00:09,200 --> 01:00:13,200 this the real thing or is this part of a bigger joke that she's kind of doing? 1364 01:00:13,200 --> 01:00:17,200 Well, I could see it being like, okay, if I just like automatically ship them together 1365 01:00:17,200 --> 01:00:22,200 and make it super awkward, then maybe it won't ever come to full fruition. 1366 01:00:22,200 --> 01:00:25,200 Like they will just, that'll just be the running joke. 1367 01:00:25,200 --> 01:00:28,200 And then they'll probably eventually eventually eventually actually be together because that's 1368 01:00:28,200 --> 01:00:30,200 just things like joke up their group. 1369 01:00:30,200 --> 01:00:31,200 All to Tamiya's plans. 1370 01:00:31,200 --> 01:00:32,200 That's good. 1371 01:00:32,200 --> 01:00:35,200 This also feels like the shojo stuff. 1372 01:00:35,200 --> 01:00:36,200 Yeah. 1373 01:00:36,200 --> 01:00:42,200 Like this drama layout where it's like, oh, like this guy likes the main girl, but like 1374 01:00:42,200 --> 01:00:43,200 her friend likes him. 1375 01:00:43,200 --> 01:00:45,200 So there's kind of this weird thing going on. 1376 01:00:45,200 --> 01:00:51,200 That feels a little bit more like a romance drama that you would see more in shojo stuff 1377 01:00:51,200 --> 01:00:52,200 than shonen stuff. 1378 01:00:52,200 --> 01:00:53,200 It's just that. 1379 01:00:53,200 --> 01:00:54,200 Yeah. 1380 01:00:54,200 --> 01:00:55,200 I mean, this is the most blushes. 1381 01:00:55,200 --> 01:00:58,200 We need like a blush counter on this episode. 1382 01:00:58,200 --> 01:01:00,200 So much blushy, blushy action. 1383 01:01:00,200 --> 01:01:02,200 See, I, okay. 1384 01:01:02,200 --> 01:01:07,200 It's when she's staring at him doing the judo, I made a note like she's using that 1385 01:01:07,200 --> 01:01:13,200 shine gun memorized those movements to pull out later. 1386 01:01:13,200 --> 01:01:14,200 Okay. 1387 01:01:14,200 --> 01:01:16,200 And then freaking Ojiro at the end. 1388 01:01:16,200 --> 01:01:18,200 Oh, it's so stupid. 1389 01:01:18,200 --> 01:01:19,200 Tokyo. 1390 01:01:19,200 --> 01:01:23,200 What are the chances you're going to, he's following her. 1391 01:01:23,200 --> 01:01:25,200 There's no way they ran. 1392 01:01:25,200 --> 01:01:27,200 Cause you said he had a second umbrella. 1393 01:01:27,200 --> 01:01:29,200 So like, he does have a second umbrella. 1394 01:01:29,200 --> 01:01:31,200 I don't know what to make of that. 1395 01:01:31,200 --> 01:01:34,200 There's no way they organically ran into each other. 1396 01:01:34,200 --> 01:01:35,200 Tokyo is huge. 1397 01:01:35,200 --> 01:01:36,200 It is weird. 1398 01:01:36,200 --> 01:01:37,200 It's weird that that happens. 1399 01:01:37,200 --> 01:01:41,200 It's weird that he has two umbrellas, but when he meets her, he's like, oh, it's a nice 1400 01:01:41,200 --> 01:01:42,200 day. 1401 01:01:42,200 --> 01:01:43,200 Isn't it? 1402 01:01:43,200 --> 01:01:46,200 And then like the sun comes out, like he summoned the end of the rain. 1403 01:01:46,200 --> 01:01:50,200 Like he's magic, but then it turns out that's like, he didn't give her an umbrella when 1404 01:01:50,200 --> 01:01:51,200 he had one. 1405 01:01:51,200 --> 01:01:52,200 Like what's happening? 1406 01:01:52,200 --> 01:01:53,200 I'm not sure what's happening here. 1407 01:01:53,200 --> 01:01:57,200 This is like, he missed his chance to have a romantic moment with her. 1408 01:01:57,200 --> 01:01:58,200 Yeah. 1409 01:01:58,200 --> 01:01:59,200 This is like the romance, right? 1410 01:01:59,200 --> 01:02:00,200 So maybe. 1411 01:02:00,200 --> 01:02:02,200 Because it also seems like he summoned the sun. 1412 01:02:02,200 --> 01:02:04,200 So maybe he sabotaged himself. 1413 01:02:04,200 --> 01:02:09,200 It rains when you're with Kataru, but when I come, it's shiny and bright. 1414 01:02:09,200 --> 01:02:10,200 Yeah. 1415 01:02:10,200 --> 01:02:14,200 Well, it's like Kataru got his, he was going to shoot his shot, but got interrupted by 1416 01:02:14,200 --> 01:02:15,200 Tamiya, right? 1417 01:02:15,200 --> 01:02:16,200 Yeah. 1418 01:02:16,200 --> 01:02:21,200 Like he was sabotaged by somebody else because he is, he exists to get dunked on. 1419 01:02:21,200 --> 01:02:26,200 Well, I think if he hadn't been interrupted, she just would have been like, oh, I don't, 1420 01:02:26,200 --> 01:02:29,200 I don't know, blah, blah, blah, run away and. 1421 01:02:29,200 --> 01:02:30,200 Yeah. 1422 01:02:30,200 --> 01:02:32,200 Then be like, you know, flighty. 1423 01:02:32,200 --> 01:02:35,200 She is not there mentally to have that conversation. 1424 01:02:35,200 --> 01:02:36,200 No, she's not. 1425 01:02:36,200 --> 01:02:37,200 She can't, I can't. 1426 01:02:37,200 --> 01:02:38,200 What are you going to talk about? 1427 01:02:38,200 --> 01:02:42,200 All it's going to be is her cooking you food and then playing angelic layer. 1428 01:02:42,200 --> 01:02:43,200 That's your relationship. 1429 01:02:43,200 --> 01:02:44,200 This is what I said. 1430 01:02:44,200 --> 01:02:45,200 She's the ideal girlfriend. 1431 01:02:45,200 --> 01:02:46,200 Is that right? 1432 01:02:46,200 --> 01:02:48,200 What if a person makes you food and then doesn't do anything? 1433 01:02:48,200 --> 01:02:49,200 No. 1434 01:02:49,200 --> 01:02:51,200 I don't know. 1435 01:02:51,200 --> 01:02:54,200 I'm just saying that like in the like imaginary of like a middle school boy probably. 1436 01:02:54,200 --> 01:02:55,200 I guess. 1437 01:02:55,200 --> 01:02:56,200 I don't know. 1438 01:02:56,200 --> 01:02:57,200 I didn't have any relationships. 1439 01:02:57,200 --> 01:02:58,200 I don't know. 1440 01:02:58,200 --> 01:02:59,200 Middle school. 1441 01:02:59,200 --> 01:03:02,200 I feel like you just only see each other at school and that's the relationship. 1442 01:03:02,200 --> 01:03:05,200 Maybe you eat lunch together and that's it. 1443 01:03:05,200 --> 01:03:09,200 Well, like she doesn't have any like actual deep relationships with anyone like any guy 1444 01:03:09,200 --> 01:03:10,200 is particularly right. 1445 01:03:10,200 --> 01:03:14,200 Like Ojiro is a guy who shows up, says some cryptic shit and then leaves, which is extremely 1446 01:03:14,200 --> 01:03:17,200 funny when he's like, Hey, I heard they're making a new battle system. 1447 01:03:17,200 --> 01:03:21,200 Yeah, she doesn't question how he knows that or yeah. 1448 01:03:21,200 --> 01:03:22,200 Super. 1449 01:03:22,200 --> 01:03:23,200 But like that's all he does. 1450 01:03:23,200 --> 01:03:24,200 Right. 1451 01:03:24,200 --> 01:03:25,200 He shows up. 1452 01:03:25,200 --> 01:03:27,200 He says some like kind of cryptic stuff and then leaves. 1453 01:03:27,200 --> 01:03:28,200 It was really weird. 1454 01:03:28,200 --> 01:03:30,200 It was weird that he was there. 1455 01:03:30,200 --> 01:03:34,200 But like this is, you know, this is the thing I was saying, like in Macross, you understand 1456 01:03:34,200 --> 01:03:35,200 why these characters like each other. 1457 01:03:35,200 --> 01:03:36,200 So it's set to know. 1458 01:03:36,200 --> 01:03:38,200 I don't understand why anybody likes anybody else. 1459 01:03:38,200 --> 01:03:39,200 I do. 1460 01:03:39,200 --> 01:03:41,200 I the only one I feel like I kind of get is Tommy. 1461 01:03:41,200 --> 01:03:45,200 Oh, like I get why she would like guitar because they've been friends for so long. 1462 01:03:45,200 --> 01:03:47,200 They like hang out a lot. 1463 01:03:47,200 --> 01:03:49,200 They have a lot of things in common. 1464 01:03:49,200 --> 01:03:50,200 Yeah. 1465 01:03:50,200 --> 01:03:51,200 They like mess around. 1466 01:03:51,200 --> 01:03:52,200 I get that. 1467 01:03:52,200 --> 01:03:54,200 So again, I, I, I understand that one. 1468 01:03:54,200 --> 01:03:56,200 So I feel like that, I feel like that one should happen. 1469 01:03:56,200 --> 01:03:58,200 I hope things go well for Tom. 1470 01:03:58,200 --> 01:03:59,200 Yeah. 1471 01:03:59,200 --> 01:04:03,200 I feel like that's a common trope and shojo that may you will see later, but like oftentimes 1472 01:04:03,200 --> 01:04:08,200 a girl will have like this crush on maybe a slightly older boy that you grow up being 1473 01:04:08,200 --> 01:04:09,200 close with. 1474 01:04:09,200 --> 01:04:11,200 And he's just the boy you're closest to. 1475 01:04:11,200 --> 01:04:14,200 So you just assume that you have feelings for him. 1476 01:04:14,200 --> 01:04:18,200 But then it's just turns out it's more like familial and then like that opens the door 1477 01:04:18,200 --> 01:04:20,200 for the actual male lead kind of stuff. 1478 01:04:20,200 --> 01:04:23,200 That's a typical plot of a shojo. 1479 01:04:23,200 --> 01:04:24,200 Yeah. 1480 01:04:24,200 --> 01:04:26,200 But I feel like that is the most relatable to like people. 1481 01:04:26,200 --> 01:04:27,200 Yeah. 1482 01:04:27,200 --> 01:04:28,200 Right. 1483 01:04:28,200 --> 01:04:30,200 In terms of like, oh, if you ever had like a friend, you like turned out you thought you 1484 01:04:30,200 --> 01:04:35,200 might be closer to and you're like not sure if you want to pursue that or like how they 1485 01:04:35,200 --> 01:04:36,200 feel about it. 1486 01:04:36,200 --> 01:04:40,200 Like that's a pretty, I think it's a thing a lot of people deal with in their life at 1487 01:04:40,200 --> 01:04:42,200 some point, or they're on the receiving end of that. 1488 01:04:42,200 --> 01:04:44,200 Like this is familiar with it. 1489 01:04:44,200 --> 01:04:49,200 Like it's much more sympathetic than whatever the heck Katara and Misaki have, which is 1490 01:04:49,200 --> 01:04:52,200 just like, what if there is a cute girl and you hung out a couple of times and then I 1491 01:04:52,200 --> 01:04:56,200 guess you're going to ask her out and then she's kind of only into this weird hobby she 1492 01:04:56,200 --> 01:04:57,200 has. 1493 01:04:57,200 --> 01:05:00,200 I mean, I guess it's kind of the way they go about things, right? 1494 01:05:00,200 --> 01:05:06,200 Like in a lot of anime, it's like one person totally oblivious to the other person's existence 1495 01:05:06,200 --> 01:05:07,200 until they get confessed to. 1496 01:05:07,200 --> 01:05:10,200 And then it's like, sure, I'll give it a try dating you. 1497 01:05:10,200 --> 01:05:15,200 Let's get to know each other as we date, not we know each other and then we date. 1498 01:05:15,200 --> 01:05:17,200 It's like kind of a different culture there. 1499 01:05:17,200 --> 01:05:21,200 Like you just immediately just based off of like one person's feelings. 1500 01:05:21,200 --> 01:05:26,200 That's enough to consider being relationships if you're slightly or remotely interested 1501 01:05:26,200 --> 01:05:27,200 in each other. 1502 01:05:27,200 --> 01:05:28,200 Right. 1503 01:05:28,200 --> 01:05:32,200 But like as an audience member, I feel like the Tommy O's thing is much more sympathetic. 1504 01:05:32,200 --> 01:05:33,200 Yeah. 1505 01:05:33,200 --> 01:05:34,200 Yeah. 1506 01:05:34,200 --> 01:05:38,200 Well, then you feel bad because like Katara can only think about Misaki. 1507 01:05:38,200 --> 01:05:42,200 Everyone in the show is just very narrow minded. 1508 01:05:42,200 --> 01:05:44,200 Like everyone has blinders on. 1509 01:05:44,200 --> 01:05:48,200 Like they can't focus on anything but one thing in their life. 1510 01:05:48,200 --> 01:05:49,200 Well, but this is. 1511 01:05:49,200 --> 01:05:51,200 Except each time he can do it all. 1512 01:05:51,200 --> 01:05:52,200 Each time. 1513 01:05:52,200 --> 01:05:53,200 Well, this is yeah, right. 1514 01:05:53,200 --> 01:05:56,200 Because angelic layer is the thing that's like opens up to everything, right? 1515 01:05:56,200 --> 01:05:58,200 It's like, okay, yeah, age and size don't matter. 1516 01:05:58,200 --> 01:06:01,200 Like all these things that you think are important in regular society, like it turns out aren't 1517 01:06:01,200 --> 01:06:06,200 actually a big deal in the constructed world of angelic layer. 1518 01:06:06,200 --> 01:06:11,200 Like this is your access to more freedom in a wider like variety of way of thinking about 1519 01:06:11,200 --> 01:06:12,200 how the world could be. 1520 01:06:12,200 --> 01:06:18,200 But is that like, are they taking those lessons outside of angelic layer and applying them 1521 01:06:18,200 --> 01:06:23,200 to the real world or are they just like using it as an escape, but they're still like thinking 1522 01:06:23,200 --> 01:06:27,200 about their lives as constrained in the real world that they don't in angelic layer. 1523 01:06:27,200 --> 01:06:28,200 Right. 1524 01:06:28,200 --> 01:06:34,200 Like I think this works out pretty well in terms of why people like this game so much 1525 01:06:34,200 --> 01:06:35,200 because it is an escape, right? 1526 01:06:35,200 --> 01:06:36,200 Because that stuff doesn't actually matter. 1527 01:06:36,200 --> 01:06:39,200 Like gender norms just like kind of don't exist when you're playing this game. 1528 01:06:39,200 --> 01:06:42,200 And now there does like age or any of that other stuff. 1529 01:06:42,200 --> 01:06:46,200 Like this is truly a place where you can just be your authentic self and play this game. 1530 01:06:46,200 --> 01:06:50,200 And you don't have to worry so much about like how you're perceived by everybody else. 1531 01:06:50,200 --> 01:06:53,200 Yeah, because it's like everyone focuses on the angel. 1532 01:06:53,200 --> 01:06:59,200 So whatever you want to be on the focus of everyone's attention, like if you want your 1533 01:06:59,200 --> 01:07:02,200 angel to be cool or cute, then like that's what people are going to focus on. 1534 01:07:02,200 --> 01:07:07,200 And it's like by proxy, it feels like they're acknowledging you because they're acknowledging 1535 01:07:07,200 --> 01:07:08,200 your angel. 1536 01:07:08,200 --> 01:07:09,200 Right. 1537 01:07:09,200 --> 01:07:12,200 So I feel like the tension is going to be like, Hey, are you bringing those ideas out 1538 01:07:12,200 --> 01:07:13,200 into your real life? 1539 01:07:13,200 --> 01:07:14,200 Right. 1540 01:07:14,200 --> 01:07:19,200 Like is Misaki going to use angelic layer as a way to like get over her insecurities 1541 01:07:19,200 --> 01:07:23,200 of being small in real life and like understanding that those are not a reflection of her, you 1542 01:07:23,200 --> 01:07:26,200 know, self worth or like her true self or any of that other kind of thing. 1543 01:07:26,200 --> 01:07:29,200 Just because that's how other people may like perceive her as. 1544 01:07:29,200 --> 01:07:30,200 Yeah. 1545 01:07:30,200 --> 01:07:33,200 And you were halfway and it's already got you thinking. 1546 01:07:33,200 --> 01:07:38,200 I mean, me when I first watched this, definitely not thinking that deeply about it. 1547 01:07:38,200 --> 01:07:40,200 But like almost 30. 1548 01:07:40,200 --> 01:07:46,200 So yeah, yeah, wait till you join the club 30, 30 and thriving. 1549 01:07:46,200 --> 01:07:51,200 Better at thinking about stuff as it's a lot easier to think about themes and stuff as 1550 01:07:51,200 --> 01:07:55,200 an adult that it is when you're watching stuff as like a TV. 1551 01:07:55,200 --> 01:08:01,200 Yeah, I'm still pretty shallow and narrow or simple minded when not consuming things. 1552 01:08:01,200 --> 01:08:04,200 I'm still banging on my desk saying, where's the fighting? 1553 01:08:04,200 --> 01:08:06,200 I don't want to see this thing. 1554 01:08:06,200 --> 01:08:11,200 But just in a like a spiritual way, not a like actual what they're intending to do with 1555 01:08:11,200 --> 01:08:13,200 the character development. 1556 01:08:13,200 --> 01:08:20,200 I guess as a whole, how are you feeling now that we hit the halfway mark on this show 1557 01:08:20,200 --> 01:08:27,200 and any more predictions heading into the next half, one opening, sadly. 1558 01:08:27,200 --> 01:08:33,200 I mean, that was how we did like every 20, no, every 26 episodes is how it used to be. 1559 01:08:33,200 --> 01:08:37,200 Now it's like 12 episodes and you get a new which is way more work. 1560 01:08:37,200 --> 01:08:40,200 I would try to like write off the first one. 1561 01:08:40,200 --> 01:08:41,200 Probably one's. 1562 01:08:41,200 --> 01:08:42,200 Yeah, I think it's I think it's good so far. 1563 01:08:42,200 --> 01:08:45,200 Like I'm pretty like I'm looking forward to the stuff that's coming next. 1564 01:08:45,200 --> 01:08:50,200 I'll see I'll be like interested to see like what her matches are like against some people 1565 01:08:50,200 --> 01:08:56,200 that are more veteran in terms of like what is Masaki going to learn or like take away from these fights. 1566 01:08:56,200 --> 01:09:00,200 As opposed to like what she's been doing recently, which is like kind of dishing out wisdom. 1567 01:09:00,200 --> 01:09:05,200 Now I think she's going to be on the receiving end of that and it's going to be interesting to see what other people have to say to her. 1568 01:09:05,200 --> 01:09:08,200 Yeah, because now she'll be actively talking with the peanut gallery. 1569 01:09:08,200 --> 01:09:10,200 They're not the peanut gallery anymore. 1570 01:09:10,200 --> 01:09:12,200 They're they're in the main spotlight. 1571 01:09:12,200 --> 01:09:13,200 They have names. 1572 01:09:13,200 --> 01:09:20,200 So it's going to be Masaki versus Kayate and then a toko versus sigh. 1573 01:09:20,200 --> 01:09:21,200 Oh, no. 1574 01:09:21,200 --> 01:09:23,200 He's going to play out. 1575 01:09:23,200 --> 01:09:24,200 Oh, no. 1576 01:09:24,200 --> 01:09:29,200 It's going to be the fight between the coolest angels ever. 1577 01:09:29,200 --> 01:09:30,200 It's going to be so sad. 1578 01:09:30,200 --> 01:09:32,200 I would be so sad when that happens. 1579 01:09:32,200 --> 01:09:33,200 You don't know. 1580 01:09:33,200 --> 01:09:36,200 I don't know, but I do know because I know drama. 1581 01:09:36,200 --> 01:09:38,200 I know how to write a show. 1582 01:09:38,200 --> 01:09:39,200 I actually don't. 1583 01:09:39,200 --> 01:09:40,200 But I've seen the show before. 1584 01:09:40,200 --> 01:09:42,200 I know how to write script for a podcast. 1585 01:09:42,200 --> 01:09:43,200 I know. 1586 01:09:43,200 --> 01:09:44,200 I know how scripts work. 1587 01:09:44,200 --> 01:09:45,200 I know how drama. 1588 01:09:45,200 --> 01:09:46,200 I know how you make drama. 1589 01:09:46,200 --> 01:09:49,200 You don't make drama by having the same person fight the same person twice. 1590 01:09:49,200 --> 01:09:53,200 Yeah, maybe if this is a longer running show, but there's no time for that. 1591 01:09:53,200 --> 01:09:56,200 She would hold her hand if she was going to lose. 1592 01:09:56,200 --> 01:09:57,200 Let's be real. 1593 01:09:57,200 --> 01:09:58,200 Oh, no. 1594 01:09:58,200 --> 01:09:59,200 It'll be good. 1595 01:09:59,200 --> 01:10:01,200 I think I think hot okay will bounce back. 1596 01:10:01,200 --> 01:10:02,200 Blanche is cute. 1597 01:10:02,200 --> 01:10:07,200 Nurse Blanche isn't blanching when you like freeze vegetables or something. 1598 01:10:07,200 --> 01:10:10,200 I mean, isn't that a golden girl? 1599 01:10:10,200 --> 01:10:11,200 Blanche. 1600 01:10:11,200 --> 01:10:13,200 Is that like pale? 1601 01:10:13,200 --> 01:10:14,200 Let's see here. 1602 01:10:14,200 --> 01:10:17,200 How to blanch vegetables before freezing. 1603 01:10:17,200 --> 01:10:21,200 Blanching is the process in which you boil or steam vegetables briefly until they are 1604 01:10:21,200 --> 01:10:22,200 partially cooked. 1605 01:10:22,200 --> 01:10:26,200 It is the essential step before freezing many vegetables, including broccoli, leafy greens, 1606 01:10:26,200 --> 01:10:27,200 string beans, okra and asparagus. 1607 01:10:27,200 --> 01:10:28,200 It makes sense. 1608 01:10:28,200 --> 01:10:30,200 I don't know what it has to do with cooking. 1609 01:10:30,200 --> 01:10:32,200 Do we think Kaia is going to do that on stage? 1610 01:10:32,200 --> 01:10:34,200 Going to blanch some vegetables? 1611 01:10:34,200 --> 01:10:35,200 No. 1612 01:10:35,200 --> 01:10:37,200 Well, I look up blanched. 1613 01:10:37,200 --> 01:10:43,200 Well, as far as like name, feminine name of French origin, that means white or pure, 1614 01:10:43,200 --> 01:10:44,200 which makes sense. 1615 01:10:44,200 --> 01:10:47,200 The angels stick down and white stuff. 1616 01:10:47,200 --> 01:10:53,200 But what I was thinking of is what does blanched mean to become white or pale as from shock 1617 01:10:53,200 --> 01:10:54,200 or fear? 1618 01:10:54,200 --> 01:10:59,200 That's what I had in mind, like becoming pale from something. 1619 01:10:59,200 --> 01:11:00,200 Yeah. 1620 01:11:00,200 --> 01:11:02,200 So what kind of fighting style? 1621 01:11:02,200 --> 01:11:04,200 I mean, because right there are both lightweight angels. 1622 01:11:04,200 --> 01:11:06,200 So there are similar builds. 1623 01:11:06,200 --> 01:11:09,200 Well, I guess we'll see that new terrain stuff. 1624 01:11:09,200 --> 01:11:10,200 That'll change it up. 1625 01:11:10,200 --> 01:11:16,200 It's interesting to me that so far the only angel that she's fought that has like a special 1626 01:11:16,200 --> 01:11:19,200 kind of ability was Ranga that like shoots the air blast. 1627 01:11:19,200 --> 01:11:20,200 Like nobody else had a gimmick. 1628 01:11:20,200 --> 01:11:21,200 Like Mao didn't have a gimmick. 1629 01:11:21,200 --> 01:11:22,200 I mean, there was like five. 1630 01:11:22,200 --> 01:11:23,200 She was like five. 1631 01:11:23,200 --> 01:11:24,200 I mean, that wasn't like the ability. 1632 01:11:24,200 --> 01:11:25,200 There was the ice skating. 1633 01:11:25,200 --> 01:11:26,200 But that was like a... 1634 01:11:26,200 --> 01:11:28,200 But like there wasn't like an attack. 1635 01:11:28,200 --> 01:11:32,200 It wasn't like a puzzle fight, you know, where you had to like figure out what's happening. 1636 01:11:32,200 --> 01:11:34,200 Hopefully we'll get some more puzzle fights. 1637 01:11:34,200 --> 01:11:35,200 I like puzzle fights. 1638 01:11:35,200 --> 01:11:36,200 Yeah. 1639 01:11:36,200 --> 01:11:37,200 We got to use that brain. 1640 01:11:37,200 --> 01:11:39,200 We got to like figure out what's going on. 1641 01:11:39,200 --> 01:11:41,200 I don't think Misaki can handle that many. 1642 01:11:41,200 --> 01:11:44,200 Her poor little brain can't process too much information. 1643 01:11:44,200 --> 01:11:45,200 You keep saying she's dumb. 1644 01:11:45,200 --> 01:11:46,200 She's not dumb. 1645 01:11:46,200 --> 01:11:47,200 I don't know. 1646 01:11:47,200 --> 01:11:49,200 Let me see that report card. 1647 01:11:49,200 --> 01:11:51,200 Then we'll see. 1648 01:11:51,200 --> 01:11:52,200 Wow. 1649 01:11:52,200 --> 01:11:53,200 Oh, yes. 1650 01:11:53,200 --> 01:11:54,200 Wow. 1651 01:11:54,200 --> 01:11:55,200 I'm not that smart. 1652 01:11:55,200 --> 01:12:01,200 I'm just saying I'm more perceptive of like, oh, I just saw that lady in the bathroom. 1653 01:12:01,200 --> 01:12:02,200 Now she's on screen. 1654 01:12:02,200 --> 01:12:03,200 Okay. 1655 01:12:03,200 --> 01:12:10,200 I can comprehend that that's the same person and that she's a performer and not be shocked. 1656 01:12:10,200 --> 01:12:13,200 More be like boasting to Aunt Shoko. 1657 01:12:13,200 --> 01:12:14,200 I'm at that girl. 1658 01:12:14,200 --> 01:12:15,200 Listen, I'm at that idol. 1659 01:12:15,200 --> 01:12:16,200 You've ever been to a concert? 1660 01:12:16,200 --> 01:12:17,200 Like twice. 1661 01:12:17,200 --> 01:12:21,200 You ever, you ever stand like had a standing area in a concert before? 1662 01:12:21,200 --> 01:12:22,200 No. 1663 01:12:22,200 --> 01:12:26,200 If everybody's standing, people in front of you are tall and Misaki notoriously short. 1664 01:12:26,200 --> 01:12:27,200 So maybe she didn't see any. 1665 01:12:27,200 --> 01:12:28,200 Yeah. 1666 01:12:28,200 --> 01:12:29,200 Like her whole show. 1667 01:12:29,200 --> 01:12:31,200 Maybe she was just in a crowd and just like heard the music. 1668 01:12:31,200 --> 01:12:33,200 Well, yeah, cause there was no seating. 1669 01:12:33,200 --> 01:12:35,200 It was just people standing around. 1670 01:12:35,200 --> 01:12:39,200 Maybe she just, maybe she just couldn't see Ringo because she's so short. 1671 01:12:39,200 --> 01:12:43,200 Katara should have put her on her shoulders, but he didn't because he's a wuss. 1672 01:12:43,200 --> 01:12:45,200 Also, she already gets treated like a child. 1673 01:12:45,200 --> 01:12:48,200 They'll just make her more self-conscious of looking like a. 1674 01:12:48,200 --> 01:12:49,200 You should neg her. 1675 01:12:49,200 --> 01:12:51,200 That's how that's how you get a girlfriend. 1676 01:12:51,200 --> 01:12:52,200 Yeah. 1677 01:12:52,200 --> 01:12:55,200 I guess you, you're the ladies man. 1678 01:12:55,200 --> 01:12:56,200 So yeah. 1679 01:12:56,200 --> 01:12:58,200 That's how I always refer to myself. 1680 01:12:58,200 --> 01:13:00,200 Smooth operator. 1681 01:13:00,200 --> 01:13:02,200 I also invite like, that's my number one hit on him. 1682 01:13:02,200 --> 01:13:05,200 Like, Hey, you want to use to me do some judo moves? 1683 01:13:05,200 --> 01:13:08,200 You want to see me do a judo form? 1684 01:13:08,200 --> 01:13:10,200 Is that doing anything for you? 1685 01:13:10,200 --> 01:13:14,200 No, I feel like would you, would you, would that work on you? 1686 01:13:14,200 --> 01:13:17,200 No, I'm like, oh, are you weirdo? 1687 01:13:17,200 --> 01:13:23,200 I just imagine it's like the typical like, ooh, let me show you how to do this thing. 1688 01:13:23,200 --> 01:13:24,200 No, you're not doing it right. 1689 01:13:24,200 --> 01:13:26,200 Let me show you by touching you. 1690 01:13:26,200 --> 01:13:31,200 That's what I would imagine would be the proposition if someone came up to me saying, Hey, let me 1691 01:13:31,200 --> 01:13:32,200 just show you this. 1692 01:13:32,200 --> 01:13:36,200 It is that not, not that far removed from being like, Hey, you want to come watch me play video 1693 01:13:36,200 --> 01:13:37,200 games? 1694 01:13:37,200 --> 01:13:42,200 Like, I play games and I wouldn't want that. 1695 01:13:42,200 --> 01:13:44,200 It looks, it looks bad. 1696 01:13:44,200 --> 01:13:47,200 And like, it's like a cool one. 1697 01:13:47,200 --> 01:13:48,200 This is what I say. 1698 01:13:48,200 --> 01:13:49,200 Like, Tamiya would have a better date. 1699 01:13:49,200 --> 01:13:50,200 He should just date Tamiya. 1700 01:13:50,200 --> 01:13:55,200 I feel like if you were dating her, if he was dating her, I would just be flinching. 1701 01:13:55,200 --> 01:13:59,200 Expecting her to attack me at any moment, never able to relax. 1702 01:13:59,200 --> 01:14:00,200 That's great. 1703 01:14:00,200 --> 01:14:02,200 That's the foundation of a good relationship. 1704 01:14:02,200 --> 01:14:03,200 Get that heart racing. 1705 01:14:03,200 --> 01:14:04,200 That's right. 1706 01:14:04,200 --> 01:14:05,200 Yeah, we'll see. 1707 01:14:05,200 --> 01:14:08,200 I am not excited about the guitar relationship with Misaki because I don't think it's that 1708 01:14:08,200 --> 01:14:09,200 good. 1709 01:14:09,200 --> 01:14:13,200 Well, luckily it's a shonen so, so it won't be fully realized. 1710 01:14:13,200 --> 01:14:15,200 I do like the Tamiya drama. 1711 01:14:15,200 --> 01:14:17,200 Oh, you don't know that. 1712 01:14:17,200 --> 01:14:18,200 It could happen. 1713 01:14:18,200 --> 01:14:20,200 I do know actually. 1714 01:14:20,200 --> 01:14:24,200 Listen, I can, I can interpret anything in my mind if I try hard enough. 1715 01:14:24,200 --> 01:14:27,200 Yeah, I can make realities in my head. 1716 01:14:27,200 --> 01:14:29,200 You wouldn't believe. 1717 01:14:29,200 --> 01:14:32,200 I am now questioning the order that I put things. 1718 01:14:32,200 --> 01:14:33,200 Now I don't remember. 1719 01:14:33,200 --> 01:14:35,200 Do we do recommendations first or reviews first? 1720 01:14:35,200 --> 01:14:37,200 We just discussed episode 12. 1721 01:14:37,200 --> 01:14:40,200 I know, I can't remember. 1722 01:14:40,200 --> 01:14:42,200 Well, we've done up to this point. 1723 01:14:42,200 --> 01:14:43,200 Okay. 1724 01:14:43,200 --> 01:14:44,200 It does how we've done it. 1725 01:14:44,200 --> 01:14:47,200 Hey, Sarah, what do you have to recommend the people? 1726 01:14:47,200 --> 01:14:52,200 What's something they should watch while they're also watching the next two episodes of Angelica? 1727 01:14:52,200 --> 01:14:54,200 Well, should we only be doing Anna? 1728 01:14:54,200 --> 01:14:57,200 I was gonna say, I'm going to the game. 1729 01:14:57,200 --> 01:15:00,200 So right now, folks, you got to act on this. 1730 01:15:00,200 --> 01:15:01,200 Okay. 1731 01:15:01,200 --> 01:15:08,200 The steam spring sales going on and I think it and what page is that ends? 1732 01:15:08,200 --> 01:15:17,200 Yeah, so it's a limited time that Mass Effect Legendary Edition is only $9. 1733 01:15:17,200 --> 01:15:20,200 That's like hundreds of hours. 1734 01:15:20,200 --> 01:15:27,200 Well, possibly at least 100 hours of content for $9 of one of the best video game series ever. 1735 01:15:27,200 --> 01:15:29,200 I am a huge Mass Effect fan. 1736 01:15:29,200 --> 01:15:37,200 I have like a freaking custom license plate that's Mass Effect related and big dweeb and it's so good. 1737 01:15:37,200 --> 01:15:38,200 Life changed. 1738 01:15:38,200 --> 01:15:45,200 Like I remember my kid brother's birthday because it was like the day before or he was born the day before Mass Effect 2 came out. 1739 01:15:45,200 --> 01:15:47,200 That's how I remember his birthday. 1740 01:15:47,200 --> 01:15:49,200 Oh, it's so good. 1741 01:15:49,200 --> 01:15:51,200 Third person shooter. 1742 01:15:51,200 --> 01:16:03,200 It's like super good, you know, like in-depth story of big epic, you know, space thing and female shepherds voiced by Jennifer Hale. 1743 01:16:03,200 --> 01:16:05,200 There's Romeo. 1744 01:16:05,200 --> 01:16:08,200 It's so good. 1745 01:16:08,200 --> 01:16:09,200 I love it. 1746 01:16:09,200 --> 01:16:12,200 Mass Effect 2 is one of my favorite games ever, if not the favorite. 1747 01:16:12,200 --> 01:16:15,200 All of Barge Gate 3 has become a contender. 1748 01:16:15,200 --> 01:16:18,200 Yeah, that's my recommendation because it refines. 1749 01:16:18,200 --> 01:16:26,200 Because I know a lot of people just skip the first Mass Effect because it's, you know, it was first, yeah, first it's all freaking out. 1750 01:16:26,200 --> 01:16:28,200 It was BioWare's first shooter game. 1751 01:16:28,200 --> 01:16:30,200 So maybe they didn't know what they were doing as well. 1752 01:16:30,200 --> 01:16:34,200 So they like revamp the gameplay so it's consistent through all the games for the most part. 1753 01:16:34,200 --> 01:16:40,200 And so the first one is much, there's not the never ending elevator loading scenes anymore. 1754 01:16:40,200 --> 01:16:44,200 So it's vastly improved, although the make-go is still a thing. 1755 01:16:44,200 --> 01:16:50,200 So that's a bummer, yeah, drive that damn thing on all these rain of planets other than that. 1756 01:16:50,200 --> 01:16:52,200 But yeah, $9. 1757 01:16:52,200 --> 01:16:54,200 I played through Mass Effect the first one. 1758 01:16:54,200 --> 01:16:57,200 I was an engineer or whatever, which means I could only use a pistol. 1759 01:16:57,200 --> 01:16:58,200 Oh yeah, yeah. 1760 01:16:58,200 --> 01:17:00,200 Yeah, I think I was a- 1761 01:17:00,200 --> 01:17:07,200 I think when I was probably 13 when I first played it is my first HD game. 1762 01:17:07,200 --> 01:17:12,200 I picked a Biotic and then never used my Biotic abilities. 1763 01:17:12,200 --> 01:17:13,200 Oh man. 1764 01:17:13,200 --> 01:17:15,200 I didn't know romance was a thing. 1765 01:17:15,200 --> 01:17:17,200 Like a lot of things went over my head. 1766 01:17:17,200 --> 01:17:25,200 The first time I played, which is probably for the best, I would have been scandalized by the sex box. 1767 01:17:25,200 --> 01:17:32,200 You can't, like the scene where it's like, oh, we're so in love and they like can't send a cus to black that. 1768 01:17:32,200 --> 01:17:34,200 Did you scandalize by that? 1769 01:17:34,200 --> 01:17:39,200 Well, cus there's like kind of a sex scene, Shepard or Liara with- 1770 01:17:39,200 --> 01:17:40,200 Not really. 1771 01:17:40,200 --> 01:17:48,200 Kind of scandalized Fox News and they like lost their minds about it, labeled it sex box. 1772 01:17:48,200 --> 01:17:50,200 Fox News loses its mind about anything because they're dumb. 1773 01:17:50,200 --> 01:17:52,200 Yeah, well, just say, yeah. 1774 01:17:52,200 --> 01:17:55,200 Fox News makes up stuff to get upset about. 1775 01:17:55,200 --> 01:18:00,200 But that's another reason to get Mass Effect, which I would always be like nervous when I was playing it, 1776 01:18:00,200 --> 01:18:04,200 cus I'd have to play at my dad's house when I went to visit him, so I'd be like, no, it's around, right? 1777 01:18:04,200 --> 01:18:06,200 Like, oh god, something's about to happen. 1778 01:18:06,200 --> 01:18:07,200 I don't want to watch it. 1779 01:18:07,200 --> 01:18:11,200 Five second scene, I don't understand how you're like nervous about this for hours. 1780 01:18:11,200 --> 01:18:13,200 Oh god. 1781 01:18:13,200 --> 01:18:15,200 Great series, get it. 1782 01:18:15,200 --> 01:18:17,200 Okay, that's my recommendation. 1783 01:18:17,200 --> 01:18:18,200 How about you, Joe? 1784 01:18:18,200 --> 01:18:22,200 Well, so early in this episode, I'm like, next week I'll talk about Star Wars Rebels, 1785 01:18:22,200 --> 01:18:24,200 but I'm just gonna recommend it here. 1786 01:18:24,200 --> 01:18:25,200 Hey, do you like Star Wars? 1787 01:18:25,200 --> 01:18:27,200 Do you like Star Wars stuff? 1788 01:18:27,200 --> 01:18:32,200 But you've noticed that maybe the most recent live action stuff, isn't that great? 1789 01:18:32,200 --> 01:18:33,200 Particularly? 1790 01:18:33,200 --> 01:18:39,200 Star Wars, like maybe it's really obvious they made it in like a sound room or like a green screen and looks kind of flat. 1791 01:18:39,200 --> 01:18:41,200 Looks like they're cutting corners. 1792 01:18:41,200 --> 01:18:49,200 Well, you should watch Star Wars Rebels, the animated, the 3D animated show from whenever it came out. 1793 01:18:49,200 --> 01:18:50,200 Oh, is this old? 1794 01:18:50,200 --> 01:18:51,200 14. 1795 01:18:51,200 --> 01:18:52,200 Oh, okay. 1796 01:18:52,200 --> 01:18:55,200 This is different from the Clone Wars or Bad Bad. 1797 01:18:55,200 --> 01:18:56,200 Yeah, you should also watch the Clone Wars. 1798 01:18:56,200 --> 01:18:59,200 Okay, I think, yeah, so Star Wars Rebels 2014 to 2018. 1799 01:18:59,200 --> 01:19:05,200 I have watched the first season and I just started the second season, I'm watching it along with a more civilized age podcast. 1800 01:19:05,200 --> 01:19:07,200 So I'm just seeing it now. 1801 01:19:07,200 --> 01:19:08,200 But it is very high quality. 1802 01:19:08,200 --> 01:19:16,200 It does the stuff you want Star Wars to do, like have payoffs for character arcs and like development and all this other stuff. 1803 01:19:16,200 --> 01:19:19,200 The Clone Wars also does this to a certain extent. 1804 01:19:19,200 --> 01:19:26,200 It's just older and it's like a little bit more, it starts off a little bit more like Saturday morning cartoon show for kids show. 1805 01:19:26,200 --> 01:19:30,200 But then like after like season two and three, it like really picks up a lot. 1806 01:19:30,200 --> 01:19:36,200 And you get a lot of like really good stuff of like the Clone Wars and like from the characters of like Anakin and Obi-Wan and all that other stuff. 1807 01:19:36,200 --> 01:19:37,200 So that's really good. 1808 01:19:37,200 --> 01:19:44,200 In Rebels, you know, it starts to take place in between the prequel series and like a mainline Star Wars stuff. 1809 01:19:44,200 --> 01:19:47,200 And it introduces a bunch of new characters, but it's really fun. 1810 01:19:47,200 --> 01:19:49,200 They do a lot of really interesting stuff there. 1811 01:19:49,200 --> 01:20:00,200 I would say like the things I feel like people like from the Mandalorian in terms of like kind of building out the universe and like some of the ideas of like what other people were doing in the galaxy at this time. 1812 01:20:00,200 --> 01:20:05,200 This show does that same exact stuff, but like really well executed and it looks really great in animation. 1813 01:20:05,200 --> 01:20:07,200 Like you can just do pacing better. 1814 01:20:07,200 --> 01:20:10,200 You could just do special effects better. 1815 01:20:10,200 --> 01:20:12,200 So what you can do. Yeah. 1816 01:20:12,200 --> 01:20:14,200 Right. And like the space battles look incredible. 1817 01:20:14,200 --> 01:20:18,200 It's just a really good way of experiencing Star Wars. 1818 01:20:18,200 --> 01:20:26,200 So if you haven't, if you like Star Wars and you haven't watched that stuff because you know, it was on Cartoon Network when you were you were like an adult or something. 1819 01:20:26,200 --> 01:20:29,200 I would go check that out because it's actually pretty solid stuff. 1820 01:20:29,200 --> 01:20:32,200 It's also pretty anime. There's a lot of anime shit in it. It's good. 1821 01:20:32,200 --> 01:20:35,200 Yeah. Well, because I mean Star Wars, right? 1822 01:20:35,200 --> 01:20:41,200 Most people think of the movies, but I like just the concept of the universe more than the movies itself. 1823 01:20:41,200 --> 01:20:50,200 Like my favorite piece of Star Wars stuff is Kotor, which we will get into and eventually make this bonus episode for realties. 1824 01:20:50,200 --> 01:20:53,200 It's not we're not just talking. We've half recorded it. 1825 01:20:53,200 --> 01:20:55,200 So it's coming at some point. 1826 01:20:55,200 --> 01:20:58,200 But like the potential for all the different stories. 1827 01:20:58,200 --> 01:21:02,200 Like I haven't read any of the books. I know there's like a bajillion Star Wars books. 1828 01:21:02,200 --> 01:21:08,200 But yeah, that's what there's room to make so many different things outside of the movies. 1829 01:21:08,200 --> 01:21:12,200 Yeah, it adds a lot of nuance and flavor to the worlds around it. It's good. 1830 01:21:12,200 --> 01:21:16,200 I guess I was before Disney acquired LucasArts. 1831 01:21:16,200 --> 01:21:19,200 Rebels is like the first thing they made after Disney acquired them. 1832 01:21:19,200 --> 01:21:23,200 So they stopped making the Clone Wars show and then they made Rebels. 1833 01:21:23,200 --> 01:21:25,200 Were people mad about that? 1834 01:21:25,200 --> 01:21:34,200 Yeah, well, they went back later and added a seventh season to the Clone Wars, which is like the thing about the Clone Wars is that you can watch the animation quality get better. 1835 01:21:34,200 --> 01:21:40,200 Like you can watch them like really figure out like how to make things look good, how to do lighting, how to do particle effects and like the writing gets better. 1836 01:21:40,200 --> 01:21:44,200 Like everything just gets way better. And then in Rebels, they start off already with all those skills. 1837 01:21:44,200 --> 01:21:51,200 And then they play that show out and then they go back to the Clone Wars and that season is incredible. 1838 01:21:51,200 --> 01:21:53,200 It's like peak Star Wars stuff. 1839 01:21:53,200 --> 01:21:57,200 That didn't just immediately turn to shit when the big company got their hands on it. 1840 01:21:57,200 --> 01:22:01,200 I know they did that like Tales of the Jedi thing, which is also that 3D animation. 1841 01:22:01,200 --> 01:22:04,200 I haven't seen that yet, but I'm expecting it to be really good. 1842 01:22:04,200 --> 01:22:07,200 Like I heard the bad batch is really good. It's that same thing like that style. 1843 01:22:07,200 --> 01:22:09,200 Yeah, I've heard good things about that. 1844 01:22:09,200 --> 01:22:11,200 That team is really good is what I've heard. 1845 01:22:11,200 --> 01:22:13,200 Really carrying Star Wars on its back for me. 1846 01:22:13,200 --> 01:22:18,200 Yeah, I think I saw a Clone War movie where there's like a baby hut, like Java the hut. 1847 01:22:18,200 --> 01:22:20,200 Yeah, that was like the very first thing they did. 1848 01:22:20,200 --> 01:22:22,200 Yeah, it's a cute little dude. 1849 01:22:22,200 --> 01:22:23,200 It's fun. 1850 01:22:23,200 --> 01:22:28,200 Listen, if you watched Obi-Wan, the show Obi-Wan and thought it was terrible, it's because you're right. 1851 01:22:28,200 --> 01:22:31,200 It is terrible and there's all that stuff way better. 1852 01:22:31,200 --> 01:22:35,200 I watched a bit of Ashoka. 1853 01:22:35,200 --> 01:22:39,200 I've not seen that, but I just don't think the live action stuff has it. 1854 01:22:39,200 --> 01:22:42,200 Like the first two seasons of The Mandalorian were pretty good. 1855 01:22:42,200 --> 01:22:44,200 The first season was really good and the second one was okay. 1856 01:22:44,200 --> 01:22:47,200 And then I've heard it's meandering. 1857 01:22:47,200 --> 01:22:50,200 I watched a few episodes, but I was like, this is boring. 1858 01:22:50,200 --> 01:22:54,200 Baby Yoda's carrying this whole show on his tiny back. 1859 01:22:54,200 --> 01:22:55,200 Yeah. 1860 01:22:55,200 --> 01:22:56,200 So I didn't. 1861 01:22:56,200 --> 01:22:58,200 I haven't the animated shows got it. 1862 01:22:58,200 --> 01:22:59,200 They have it. 1863 01:22:59,200 --> 01:23:00,200 They move at a pace. 1864 01:23:00,200 --> 01:23:02,200 Like they have a really, they have cartoon pacing, right? 1865 01:23:02,200 --> 01:23:04,200 Which is like, you can do a lot of stuff. 1866 01:23:04,200 --> 01:23:10,200 The biggest takeaway from the like live action avatar thing is that like cartoons can just do pacing faster. 1867 01:23:10,200 --> 01:23:13,200 Yeah, because you're already in the minds like it's yeah. 1868 01:23:13,200 --> 01:23:14,200 Yeah, cartoons. 1869 01:23:14,200 --> 01:23:18,200 I mean, just animated stuff, I think is great. 1870 01:23:18,200 --> 01:23:21,200 It's, you know, easier to be successful. 1871 01:23:21,200 --> 01:23:25,200 It seems like just have beautiful art and a decent story and likeable characters. 1872 01:23:25,200 --> 01:23:28,200 Like you and me, we freaking love. 1873 01:23:28,200 --> 01:23:33,200 Well, maybe I'm just speaking for you, but we like to young justice a lot. 1874 01:23:33,200 --> 01:23:39,200 That's the animated series like heroes that that superheroes works better in animation than live action. 1875 01:23:39,200 --> 01:23:40,200 Oh yeah. 1876 01:23:40,200 --> 01:23:42,200 And it's so much cheaper. 1877 01:23:42,200 --> 01:23:45,200 Like, so why not like hand drawn? 1878 01:23:45,200 --> 01:23:50,200 I don't like the 3d stuff live actions really good or like character work, right? 1879 01:23:50,200 --> 01:23:51,200 Like character drama. 1880 01:23:51,200 --> 01:23:53,200 I feel like live action works really well. 1881 01:23:53,200 --> 01:24:02,200 You know, I don't think I'm a little animated, like animated, breaking bad or like mad men or like, I don't think that would be very good. 1882 01:24:02,200 --> 01:24:12,200 Just because those like thrive on long scenes between characters that are like having complex emotions and like the, you know, voice acting could do a lot, but it can't do like the face and all that stuff. 1883 01:24:12,200 --> 01:24:14,200 Like it's just harder to do that in the animation. 1884 01:24:14,200 --> 01:24:15,200 I don't know. 1885 01:24:15,200 --> 01:24:18,200 Has the anime never made you upset or cry or anything?
