00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:20,200
Welcome back to show Joe. I'm Sarah joined by my co-host and namesake of the podcast himself.

2
00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:22,200
Joe.

3
00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:24,200
Hello.

4
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:29,200
Hey, how are you doing? I'm freaking exhausted.

5
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:38,000
I don't know if you saw, but I got a new dog. We talked about me possibly getting one last weekend and then I just executed the plan immediately.

6
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:40,000
Okay. All right.

7
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:43,000
Yeah. Well, yeah, that's good. Right?

8
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:45,000
Yes. Yes, it is.

9
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:52,000
So she's like a lab pit mix and her name is Lemon. She's super cute.

10
00:00:52,000 --> 00:01:05,800
I have my mom watching cricket since when I got like spayed the day I picked her up. So I just want to give her some time, some downtime before they kind of got to know each other.

11
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:08,800
She was the owner surrender.

12
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:31,600
Finally finished building this like split crate like furniture crate that the both of them can be in but separately. And turns out I think she has a bit of separation anxiety possibly or, you know, until we get like into a schedule where she learns that I go and come.

13
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:45,400
Hopefully she'll settle down. But you know that scene in Jurassic Park when the power goes out and then they go to the raptor enclosure and like the electric fence is like mangled.

14
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:47,400
Yeah.

15
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:50,400
So I had like I got home from work yesterday.

16
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:52,400
Oh my God.

17
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:56,400
And it was reminiscent of that.

18
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:58,400
Oh my God.

19
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:15,200
She she had like applied some of the little bars open and slipped out in as soon as I came home. She's at the door and I was like, Oh God.

20
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:19,200
So luckily I was able to kind of like put it back.

21
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,200
But yeah.

22
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,200
You just stronger enclosure.

23
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:25,200
Apparently like I'm muzzled.

24
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:27,200
We'll see if that helps.

25
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:29,200
I know.

26
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:35,200
My God, girl, because she's really freaking chill otherwise.

27
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:37,200
So I don't know.

28
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:45,200
This is my first time adopting a dog from a shelter with like an unknown history.

29
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:55,200
Because I guess like the basically there's like an animal services vehicle and the owners are like, Oh, hey, since you're here, will you take my two dogs to.

30
00:02:55,200 --> 00:03:11,200
And didn't like providing background information, which normally owner surrender would because that like helps with adopting them out if we know like their history and if they live with other animals and stuff like that.

31
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:17,200
But yes, I mean, she yeah, she's super, super sweet.

32
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:25,200
She just wants to say hello to everyone, which is a new thing for me because normally I have the dogs that like, Oh, they look cute.

33
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:29,200
They don't want to be pet, you know, like they're going to just start yapping at you.

34
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:35,200
But she's just mute and like gentle.

35
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:43,200
So mostly it'll just be a matter of seeing how she settles with my other animals.

36
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:51,200
She's super into the cat and we'll see how she does with my shweeny cricket.

37
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:55,200
She can settle and be cool with them that we're all good.

38
00:03:55,200 --> 00:04:03,200
I'll just figure out the whole Boston, you know, escapee situation.

39
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:11,200
But I think being in that crate because I was gone probably from like nine to three.

40
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:20,200
I think I don't know at what point in that time she escaped, but I think she got stressed by the whole thing.

41
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:25,200
So she's had like, I don't know if you know this, but dogs will like it.

42
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,200
They're the brows can be affected by stress.

43
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:37,200
So yeah, last night I woke up like every two hours because she like needed to evacuate urgently.

44
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:47,200
So I did not get very much sleep. I just kind of started my day at like five after going to bed at one and waking up at like two, 30.

45
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:55,200
And yeah, so I'm tired. How about you? How are you today?

46
00:04:55,200 --> 00:05:01,200
Yeah, I'm OK today. You know, got up. I am like old now. I'm old.

47
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:04,200
Yeah, because you went to the brewery and now you're like, oh, damn.

48
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:10,200
I went to the brewery and I had like two beers and I'm like, damn, I'm sleepy.

49
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,200
Right? Yeah.

50
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:13,200
Oh, man.

51
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:19,200
Yeah, drink just isn't fun anymore, which sucks because now what is fun? Nothing is fun anymore.

52
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:24,200
Pets. Getting a new pet. Very exciting.

53
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:25,200
Other.

54
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:27,200
Yeah, but that's not going to help me not be tired.

55
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:28,200
Yeah.

56
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:29,200
Sounds like.

57
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:31,200
Um, just depends.

58
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:39,200
Right. So I'm fine, though. I'm not that tired. I'm actually OK.

59
00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:44,200
I'm drinking coffee that is too hot, but I will be I will be good today.

60
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:47,200
This last week I watched a bunch of movies.

61
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:49,200
It's basically what I did.

62
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:55,200
I watched the first two Ghost in the Shell movies. So it's the original Ghost in the Shell movie.

63
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:58,200
And that was good. Those are rewatch for me, but that was really good.

64
00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:02,200
You know, sometimes it's just like nice to watch a thing that you remember being good

65
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:05,200
and you like watch it and then you're like, oh, yeah, this is still good.

66
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:06,200
I really love.

67
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:07,200
Yes.

68
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:14,200
Love the moodiness of it. I love how it's all about like robots. You know, I love me some robots.

69
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:18,200
I just read that book that I think I recommended one time about like computer power, whatever.

70
00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:22,200
So it's always fun to like revisit other things that I've talked about this and it's like, oh, yeah,

71
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:23,200
I really like this stuff.

72
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:29,200
Just probably just probably a reason I got a PhD in this.

73
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:30,200
Yes, that was good.

74
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:33,200
And then I watched the second movie, Innocence, for the first time.

75
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,200
And that was really interesting.

76
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:39,200
It came out like in 2002 or something.

77
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:43,200
So there's a lot of early 2000s CG in it.

78
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:49,200
Kind of the kind of thing you'd see in like a like a final fantasy for PlayStation 2 or something.

79
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,200
That kind of thing.

80
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:57,200
But it actually like the way that they did it works for me because the whole like every time they deploy it,

81
00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:04,200
it's to create a sense of like alienation with like the place you're in where it's like you're in like some weird unfamiliar place.

82
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:07,200
And it like everything is a little bit off and that's when they used it.

83
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,200
And so it actually worked really well for me.

84
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:15,200
So I was talking to I was watching with my friend, Elvin the whole time I was like, yeah, it's weird how like this doesn't bother me at all.

85
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:22,200
But like, you know, like the new season of Demon Slayer or whatever where they keep like inserting it in weird places like bothers me a lot.

86
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:32,200
So I think it's because I was going to say I haven't watched the new season, but apparently it's bad or at least IGN says so.

87
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:34,200
Yeah, I mean, it's the same.

88
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:37,200
It's got the same problems that kind of always had.

89
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,200
The thing about Demon Slayer is that like I read the manga.

90
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:43,200
So I like know what happens and like they just it just runs out of juice.

91
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:44,200
It just runs out.

92
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,200
They just got nothing going on after.

93
00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:54,200
I mean, but at least the manga is only like 26 volumes, at least it's not like going on for the rest of time.

94
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:57,200
Like some, you know, at least it ended.

95
00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:05,200
Well, I don't think this could go on for the rest of time because it would tank because it feels like everybody's like interesting.

96
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:06,200
I don't really know.

97
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:11,200
Like I didn't even think the last season was like that bad compared to the other ones, but I didn't like the other ones that much.

98
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:13,200
I kind of thought they were all samey.

99
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:21,200
Well, I feel like maybe part of the problem is we're getting right like it sets it up where, oh, OK, there's the Hoshiro.

100
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:24,200
They're going to be bad ass and this and that.

101
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:33,200
And like some of them are getting the proper like introduction and time with these characters.

102
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:39,200
But like the Sword Smith Village art, like there's a couple, but we don't.

103
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:47,200
I feel like we don't necessarily get well, maybe with the Miss Guy, but the love Hoshiro.

104
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:48,200
I feel like we don't.

105
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,200
There's not much depth there.

106
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:58,200
So like even though it's a new season, it doesn't feel like we're getting that much new about these new characters, you know.

107
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:01,200
Yeah, I mean, it is increasingly just boss battles.

108
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,200
Like you're playing a video game.

109
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:05,200
Yeah, there's not really a boss battle for like an hour and a half.

110
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:06,200
Yeah.

111
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:08,200
Plot progression, just fighting.

112
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:15,200
And that's not what I think the strength of the show is, particularly the bosses who are about to die anyway.

113
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:17,200
So why do we?

114
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:20,200
That's always been many ways.

115
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,200
I have never liked even Slayer for doing that.

116
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:23,200
I also don't like the Hoshiro.

117
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:28,200
So I, you know, I don't really know what I'm watching it to be honest.

118
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:34,200
Because we have a podcast about anime and we got to we got to be somewhat.

119
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,200
Well, I don't think people are.

120
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:37,200
Yeah, I guess.

121
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:39,200
What else is current?

122
00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:42,200
My hero academia, the manga is in its epilogue.

123
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:43,200
So that's.

124
00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:45,200
Yeah, yeah.

125
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,200
Finally.

126
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:50,200
So that ending was also just a long boss battle.

127
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:51,200
That wasn't very good.

128
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:52,200
Oh, dear.

129
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,200
I mean, I lost.

130
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,200
See, this is I'm just going to like lose my train of thought.

131
00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:58,200
It's spontaneous.

132
00:09:58,200 --> 00:09:59,200
That's fine.

133
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:00,200
This whole thing.

134
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:01,200
That's all good.

135
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:02,200
Oh, you know what?

136
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:03,200
I did.

137
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:08,200
Let's see, I was going to say as far as anything I did, other than get a new dog.

138
00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:15,200
I watched the Cove, the dolphin documentary, which I've never heard of this.

139
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:16,200
Horrific.

140
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,200
It's from 2009.

141
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:23,200
It's about like, you know, Japan has this long history of like whaling stuff and that

142
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:27,200
got me and in the, I think late 80s, maybe.

143
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:32,200
And since then, I've like turned to dolphins as like a method.

144
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:34,200
That basically there's like a Cove.

145
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:38,200
I think it's like I show or something.

146
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,200
I G type.

147
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:50,200
I do some little, you know, town, whole like deals that they just corral dolphins into this

148
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:57,200
Cove and then handpicked the young ones to like ship out for entertainment places around

149
00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:58,200
the world.

150
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,200
And those sell for like, probably.

151
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:04,200
Well, not as much as like a killer whale, but they get thousands of dollars for these

152
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:05,200
dolphins.

153
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:10,200
And then the adult ones that aren't going to that, they like slaughter and then they like

154
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:14,200
sell the meat, but like sell it under different names than dolphin meat.

155
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:18,200
And it's like super full of mercury and stuff.

156
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:19,200
Yeah, right.

157
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:26,200
So it was like a whole documentary about kind of, because like they had very strict security

158
00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:31,200
and we're trying to, you know, because this the guy essentially the dolphin trainer for

159
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:36,200
the flipper show from like the what the 60 70 something like that.

160
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:38,200
He's like an activist now.

161
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:43,200
And like he was featured in this documentary and his efforts to uncover, you know, kind

162
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:47,200
of do like a story and reveal this to the world.

163
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,200
So it was pretty rough.

164
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:56,200
And then I watched a different work of documentary and cried a little bit in that one.

165
00:11:56,200 --> 00:12:00,200
And then for some reason I cried in La Ville in like the other day.

166
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:03,200
So I'm like, I don't know what's happening.

167
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:04,200
Wow.

168
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:06,200
Even if today is really getting to you, huh?

169
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:07,200
Oh my God.

170
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:08,200
Yes.

171
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:09,200
Oh my.

172
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:10,200
I cried watching.

173
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:12,200
What is this episode?

174
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:13,200
Oh my God.

175
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:14,200
We'll get to it.

176
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,200
Uh, the last one.

177
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:17,200
Yeah.

178
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:18,200
The last one.

179
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:19,200
Okay.

180
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:24,200
Well, speaking of the ocean, I did play iron lung.

181
00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:27,200
I beat iron lung yesterday, which is like an indie game.

182
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:28,200
Okay.

183
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:32,200
You're in a submersible like you're in like a submarine that's like tiny.

184
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:35,200
It's like one room and you have to, and you're on a blood moon.

185
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:39,200
You're on a moon that has a sea of blood and you have to go and take pictures of stuff

186
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:42,200
and it's like lots of spooky sound engineering going on.

187
00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:43,200
Okay.

188
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:44,200
It's cool.

189
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:47,200
People are still stuck in the iron lung.

190
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:50,200
Like there's a few, uh, remain.

191
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:51,200
Oh, like the actual.

192
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:52,200
Yeah.

193
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:53,200
The freaking socks.

194
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:54,200
Uh, yeah.

195
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:55,200
Yeah.

196
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:57,200
On that note.

197
00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,200
You want.

198
00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:01,200
Uh, talk about the show.

199
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:02,200
Yeah.

200
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:05,200
So we only have two more episodes left after this.

201
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:06,200
Yep.

202
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:08,200
Of like, because there's such a short season.

203
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:09,200
Yeah.

204
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:10,200
We're at the halfway point.

205
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:16,200
Well, I feel like it's the animation from the majority of these episodes doesn't feel

206
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:19,200
the same caliber as the first season either.

207
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:25,200
Like you would assume any scene where they played like serious music for drama would

208
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:26,200
be animated.

209
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:28,200
Well, but I feel like that's not the case.

210
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:32,200
Like maybe certain shots are, but not the entire scene.

211
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:33,200
Like, I don't know.

212
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:35,200
Like, yeah.

213
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:36,200
Meh.

214
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:40,200
I didn't notice that half cooked season or something.

215
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:45,200
Big of a difference, but I guess if they're doing it less often, I didn't really pay attention

216
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:49,200
to how often they're doing like little visual gags and stuff like that.

217
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:50,200
Yeah.

218
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:51,200
Well, like, right.

219
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:54,200
Lots of, I think more chibi than normal.

220
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:55,200
Yeah.

221
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:56,200
Stuff like that.

222
00:13:56,200 --> 00:14:02,200
Or like, I mean, I like that storming off there, like reusing the same animation.

223
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:03,200
They do.

224
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:04,200
Yeah.

225
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:05,200
That's that.

226
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:06,200
I mean, that's fine.

227
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:07,200
I don't think that's bad.

228
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,200
That's like, I don't know.

229
00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:12,200
I just, I think for show Joe, if you don't.

230
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:19,200
Cause the strong point of show Joe is like the very beautiful artwork, which is hard

231
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:22,200
to capture in the animation versus print.

232
00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:28,200
But if you don't even try, then it's going to, you know, that's why there was a third

233
00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:30,200
season until now, I guess.

234
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:33,200
I think it seems weird because like we looked at the production schedule, right?

235
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:36,200
Or like we looked at how it was in between season one and two, and it wasn't that much

236
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:37,200
time.

237
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:41,200
So they had to have been like making season two while season one aired, right?

238
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:42,200
Yeah.

239
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:43,200
I don't know.

240
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:45,200
I mean, there's a crunch or something.

241
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:50,200
So like, yeah, well that's, I mean, it almost seems like they ordered 36 episodes and then

242
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:54,200
just split it into two or like however many, like 30, whatever.

243
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:59,200
Because I can't really think of any other reason why they would break it up like that.

244
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,200
Like why is this one half the length of the other one?

245
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:02,200
I don't know.

246
00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:06,200
Cause it's the time where like 12 episodes seasons became a thing.

247
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:07,200
Yeah.

248
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:08,200
When did the show come out?

249
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:09,200
What year was it?

250
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:11,200
Like 2010.

251
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:13,200
11, 2011.

252
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:17,200
Like the economy crash or something?

253
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:20,200
Oh, in Japan.

254
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:21,200
That's time period.

255
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:22,200
Who knows?

256
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:23,200
Yeah.

257
00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:25,200
I couldn't tell you.

258
00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:27,200
2009 is when it first aired.

259
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:30,200
The last episode aired in 2011.

260
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,200
I don't remember what was happening in 2011.

261
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:37,200
Oh, wasn't that the big reactor meltdown in Fukushima?

262
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:38,200
No, that's 2010.

263
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:41,200
I remember that there was like a tsunami in Japan.

264
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:42,200
Yeah.

265
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:47,200
But affected all anime at the time.

266
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:48,200
Yeah.

267
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,200
I don't know if it was that.

268
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:56,200
For some reason it just seems like it's a weird like thing to happen production wise.

269
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:59,200
Cause it's not just like you ordered one season and it's just like ordered another season.

270
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:04,200
It got canceled, but they like did a farewell short season or something.

271
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:07,200
Like, yeah, but that's a weird.

272
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:08,200
Yeah.

273
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,200
Well, this is why I think they ordered them at the same time.

274
00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:15,200
Cause I guess they would have gotten feedback on like their viewership when they started airing the first episodes.

275
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:18,200
And maybe they were like, oh, well, that's not great.

276
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:20,200
I don't know, but did it do well?

277
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:21,200
I shouldn't be.

278
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:22,200
I should.

279
00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:23,200
Oh, we should go to the episode.

280
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:24,200
I'll look this up at the end.

281
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:25,200
Okay.

282
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:26,200
Okay.

283
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:35,200
I'm losing track of, I wish they just kept the actual episode number and not just the season two number in the title credit.

284
00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:37,200
I'm starting to lose it.

285
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,200
What episode are we on?

286
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:40,200
20s?

287
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:43,200
Oh, like actually, I don't know.

288
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:46,200
Um, let me go to Wikipedia.

289
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:47,200
We are on episode.

290
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:49,200
So there's 25.

291
00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:50,200
So 26 was the first one.

292
00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:51,200
So we're in episode four.

293
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:54,200
So now we are on episode 29.

294
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:55,200
Okay.

295
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:56,200
No, dang.

296
00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:57,200
No, that can't be.

297
00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:58,200
I was going to wait.

298
00:16:58,200 --> 00:16:59,200
Okay.

299
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:00,200
Yeah.

300
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:03,200
Because episode 26 is technically episode zero.

301
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:04,200
Yeah.

302
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:05,200
Well, yeah, I don't count.

303
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,200
So we're either on 29 or 30.

304
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:12,200
If you count episode zero, which Wikipedia does, or we're in episode four of season two.

305
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:14,200
I'm just going to start saying it from season two of perspective.

306
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:15,200
I don't care.

307
00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:20,200
I didn't count it in our, our coverage as an episode.

308
00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,200
Season two, it's season two, episode four.

309
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:25,200
Season two, episode four is called, you don't understand.

310
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:33,200
We open on Sawako thinking about the events of last episode where Kazehaya told her not to worry about his question about whether he was the closest guy to her in class.

311
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:37,200
She thinks about how she never came up with an answer to that question.

312
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:41,200
Elsewhere, Kent is dragged Kazehaya to a park bench.

313
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:44,200
He tells Kazehaya he just wants to hang out with his new classmate.

314
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:46,200
And that's why he's like getting close to Sawako.

315
00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:49,200
Or no, that's why he's like, that's where we're hanging out right here.

316
00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:50,200
Kazehaya.

317
00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:52,200
And he does not buy that.

318
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:56,200
Kent immediately asked him if he has a girlfriend and Kazehaya says no.

319
00:17:56,200 --> 00:18:02,200
Kent then comments that, hey, that's Sawako has been a loner for a while, right?

320
00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:07,200
I hear your whole deal is that you can't leave loners alone, but like maybe it would be best if you did that, huh?

321
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:10,200
And Kazehaya responds by asking him what the hell he's talking about.

322
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:13,200
He's like, what are you, I don't know what you're saying.

323
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:17,200
And he says that he never thought of himself or Sawako like that.

324
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:19,200
Kent is kind of surprised by this, but then just laughs it off.

325
00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:21,200
Kazehaya tells him to mind his own business.

326
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:28,200
And Kent says that maybe Kazehaya should leave her alone because if he gets too close, then other girls would get jealous and ostracize her.

327
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:31,200
Kazehaya says he knows what he's doing and he can handle it.

328
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:34,200
Also, who are you? What do you know about this anyway, Kent?

329
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:38,200
Yeah, what? Yeah, OK.

330
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:40,200
What do you think of Kent now?

331
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:44,200
Because last time you were like, ooh, our unsung hero, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

332
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:45,200
Now what?

333
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:47,200
Uh, turned.

334
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:53,200
I mean, I still think, like, I do think when he says that he is a nice guy, he is being like, he is genuinely trying to help here.

335
00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:55,200
He reads it wrong. This is what happens.

336
00:18:55,200 --> 00:19:00,200
And even says at the end of like the last episode, he's like, oh, yeah, I totally like misread all of this.

337
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:03,200
But to be fair, this is a show about everybody misreading everything.

338
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:08,200
And if Kent didn't do this, they would have, they would have stagnated forever.

339
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:11,200
Yeah, that's true. That's true.

340
00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:17,200
Like that's going to be my, we'll get to it, but that's going to be my like thesis statement is like, OK, yes, he does.

341
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:23,200
He does screw up here, but also if he doesn't screw up, then Kazehaya and Sawako are dead in the water.

342
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:25,200
Yeah, that's true.

343
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:35,200
Kent says that no matter what, oh yeah, Kent says that no matter how much closer he gets to Sawako or Kazehaya gets to Sawako,

344
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:46,200
she'll get more isolated and she's going to be, you know, it's kind of miserable if Sawako is as cling to some false hope of Kazehaya liking him.

345
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:48,200
He doesn't say that part out loud, but that's what he's referring to.

346
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:57,200
Kazehaya says that Sawako is flourishing and doesn't need to cling to false hope. What are you talking about? I don't understand what's happening in this conversation.

347
00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:06,200
At that Kent says that Kazehaya doesn't really understand the situation because him and Sawako are like opposites and he's actually very distant from her.

348
00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:09,200
Like you think you're close to her and I don't think you are, man.

349
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:11,200
Kazehaya gets annoyed and walks off.

350
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:16,200
Kent yells after him asking if he likes anybody and Kazehaya says he does.

351
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:23,200
Kent asks if he wants help setting them up because he could probably like make that work somehow and Kazehaya refuses his help.

352
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:27,200
He walks off thinking to himself if he really understands Sawako or not.

353
00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:30,200
We got the Chizu trying on dresses with Ayaane. What?

354
00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:37,200
I was just going to say catch a Chizu like about to contribute more to that.

355
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:43,200
We're getting some Chizu screen time. Here we go. She's trying on dresses with Ayaane. She buys one while walking home.

356
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:52,200
Chizu tells Ayaane that Toru's going to have a small intimate wedding next weekend and that she's invited as like a family friend.

357
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:56,200
So she's like part of the family party. It's going.

358
00:20:56,200 --> 00:21:05,200
Later Chizu, now alone, sees Kazehaya walking home. She's like, hey man, check out like I went shopping. I bought this dress. Isn't that cool?

359
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:14,200
And he's like, yeah, that's cool. And then he asks or no. And then she asks Sawako went home already and Kazehaya is like probably really stoically because he doesn't know.

360
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:16,200
Because he doesn't know her.

361
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:22,200
He doesn't know her. And then he asks Chizu if she thinks that Sawako and him are different.

362
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:26,200
And if maybe she doesn't know it or yeah, maybe he doesn't know anything about her.

363
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:30,200
Chizu is like, I don't know man. Maybe.

364
00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:41,200
And then thinks to herself that Kazehaya is a dork that doesn't even know that Sawako likes him, which is a very funny thing for Chizu to say because she had told explicitly by Ayaane like two episodes ago.

365
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:45,200
No. Oh, right. Yes. That's right. Yep.

366
00:21:45,200 --> 00:22:00,200
Kazehaya says he had always thought he understood her better than all the other people around her. And she says she's like, oh, well, if I think about all of us like you, me, Ayaane, Ryu, you're probably like the least similar to her out of everybody.

367
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:08,200
And this and Kazehaya is destroyed. Yeah, devastated by this revelation that he is the least alike her.

368
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:15,200
They part ways and Chizu wonders if something's happening between him and Sawako. But then she's like, eh, not my problem.

369
00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:17,200
It will be.

370
00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:19,200
Oh, boy.

371
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:25,200
It's like what it's like if you play a telltale game and it's like Kazehaya will remember that.

372
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:27,200
Yeah.

373
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:33,200
Totally. And it's got doesn't haunt Chizu, but.

374
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:37,200
No way. I'm going to be thinking about this later.

375
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:45,200
We cut to the next day where Karumi and friends are walking to school. They tell Karumi about Sawako study group and Karumi is like, oh, did Kazehaya set that up?

376
00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:51,200
That's pretty funny. And her friends are like, no, that D-bag can't set it up. And Karumi's like, hmm.

377
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:52,200
Oh, man.

378
00:22:52,200 --> 00:23:00,200
We cut to Sawako, who was who has spotted Kazehaya in the entryway at school and freezes like a deer in headlights. She just like totally clams up.

379
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:07,200
She tries to eat out a good morning and Kazehaya gives a very dour greeting and walks off.

380
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:12,200
Sawako thinks that maybe she's been mistaken this whole time about his feelings, you know, about her.

381
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:16,200
And that, you know, just like being casual friends is like the way things are supposed to be.

382
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:19,200
But even though she thinks that she feels kind of bad about it.

383
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:23,200
Chizu and Ioni just like see this happening.

384
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:30,200
And Ioni just has like a completely different haircut going on, not like a haircut, but like she's done her hair up in like a very...

385
00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:34,200
Yeah, it's like a updo kind of wavy.

386
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:39,200
Yeah, it's like very put together for, I don't know why. It doesn't seem like anything's happening today.

387
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:42,200
But it's nice to see.

388
00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:49,200
But I mean, it doesn't happen very often. And mostly it's just like Karumi and Sawako we see this with.

389
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:56,200
But there are like slight variations in appearance as far as hair styling at the very least.

390
00:23:56,200 --> 00:24:04,200
So I think this is around the time where anime started to put more effort into that early show, Joe, because he used to be like,

391
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:07,200
oh, everyone's going to wear the same outfit forever.

392
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:16,200
But yeah, I think this is where anime starts stepping it up or it's not being so lazy because in manga, they have like different stylings, you know,

393
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:20,200
but in anime typically they just leave it.

394
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:25,200
Yeah, so this is just, I think, a sign of that. Do we like it?

395
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:30,200
Yeah, it's good. I mean, I wrote that Ioni has some crazy hair going on. That's what I wrote in my notes.

396
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:34,200
But I think it's good, you know, it's like, all right, I thought something was happening.

397
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:38,200
I thought this, I'm like, oh, OK.

398
00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:45,200
Ioni, corner Sawako in the stairwell and asked her why her and Kazehai are so awkward now. Like, what happened?

399
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:54,200
Ioni runs through the past events and then she interrogates Sawako, asking her why she didn't, like, she gave everybody chocolate at Valentine's Day except for him.

400
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,200
Why would you do that?

401
00:24:56,200 --> 00:25:04,200
Sawako cries and says that she couldn't give it to him as a thank you, but she doesn't want to like be a burden to him if she gives it to him as anything else.

402
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:10,200
She thinks that both her agenda and her greed are now out in the open, which is an insane thing for her to say.

403
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:16,200
Ioni tells her that everyone is scared when it comes to like romance stuff, but you can't just run away from reality.

404
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:18,200
Yeah.

405
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:21,200
Sawako gets called over the intercom to do classroom chores.

406
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:24,200
Chizu and Ioni walk to class.

407
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:32,200
Chizu compliments Ioni on her inspirational speech about not being scared of stuff because she's like, yeah, I had no idea what to say back there.

408
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:35,200
I was just like standing there. I got nothing.

409
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:38,200
Ioni sees Kazehai talking to Ryu and she kicks him.

410
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:45,200
Ioni tells him that he should not pretend like he's avoiding Sawako like he did earlier and Kazehai is like, I'm not pretending.

411
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:49,200
And Ioni is like, we'll stop acting like you're pretending and then walks away.

412
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:52,200
Ryu asks Chizu what's going on and she's like, I don't know, dude.

413
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:57,200
Kazehai gets mad that everyone keeps acting like they have all the answers.

414
00:25:57,200 --> 00:26:02,200
You got the Chizu asking Ioni what's up, like a little bit like when they're ahead later in a different hallway.

415
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:07,200
Ioni says that she feels kind of bad for venting her frustration on Kazehai because she also kind of feels bad for him too.

416
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:10,200
And she's just like, why would you feel bad for him?

417
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:13,200
And Ioni is like, what?

418
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:23,200
It's just a scene where she says she's just taking out her frustration on others, but we get no elaboration on what it is that's going on in her life.

419
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,200
There's a scene like that at some point.

420
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:27,200
I think it's this one.

421
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:31,200
Well, I think if this is her frustration about the Sawako situation.

422
00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:32,200
Oh, I guess. Yeah.

423
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:35,200
I mean, this is like her being like, yeah.

424
00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:39,200
Yeah, I mean, I think she mentions she's like, you guys went on a date at the shrine.

425
00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:41,200
Remember, we totally set that up, but you're not.

426
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:43,200
We don't get credit for it.

427
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:46,200
But we did.

428
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:47,200
Yeah.

429
00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:51,200
And this is like an echo of, you know, Chizu taking stuff out on Ryu earlier.

430
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:54,200
So like taking stuff out on other people.

431
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:58,200
Girls taking stuff out on the boys, even though I feel like, I don't know, maybe he kind of deserves that.

432
00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:00,200
I don't feel like you're really venting that much.

433
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:01,200
Let's see.

434
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:02,200
Yeah.

435
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:06,200
And Chizu doesn't know why Ayane would feel bad for Kazehaya and Ayane is like, are you serious?

436
00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:12,200
She's like, well, I mean, yeah, dude, if like, if the girl he likes has some deep rooted fear of him,

437
00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:14,200
that would like kind of suck for him, right?

438
00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:16,200
And she's just like, wait a minute.

439
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:19,200
Are you telling me that Kazehaya likes someone?

440
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:20,200
Oh, no, that's terrible.

441
00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:21,200
What's Sawako gonna do?

442
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:22,200
What are we gonna do?

443
00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:24,200
This is a disaster.

444
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:26,200
And Ayane, again, is flabbergasted.

445
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:28,200
She's like, are you serious?

446
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:37,200
Ayane tells Chizu that Kazehaya likes Sawako, but has to stop her from like repeating it out loud by like yelling.

447
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:41,200
She's like, oh, he likes Sawako and she's like, dude, shut up.

448
00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:51,200
Then she's like, yeah, then she's like, wait, if she likes him and he likes her, then there's no problem.

449
00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:54,200
And Ayane is like, yes, that is literally what I've been saying to you.

450
00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:56,200
There should not be a problem.

451
00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:58,200
And she's just like, well, sweet, we've done it.

452
00:27:58,200 --> 00:27:59,200
We've solved the puzzle.

453
00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:00,200
Let's go tell him.

454
00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:02,200
And then he can confess and we're all good.

455
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:09,200
And Ayane's like, no, she stops her and is like, does Kazehaya look like the kind of guy who'd want someone meddling?

456
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:14,200
And Chizu gets a flashback to a time in middle school where she told him that a girl liked him.

457
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:16,200
And he's like, well, why are you telling me?

458
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:18,200
Why isn't she telling me?

459
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:19,200
Yeah.

460
00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:22,200
She's like, yeah, I guess he doesn't like that kind of thing, huh?

461
00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:25,200
But then Chizu starts to think a little bit and gets another brilliant idea.

462
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:28,200
She's like, oh, well, if we can't tell Kazehaya, we'll just tell Sawako.

463
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:30,200
And then we can force her to confess, right?

464
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,200
Because there's like no danger of him rejecting her.

465
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:33,200
It's the perfect plan.

466
00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:35,200
And she starts walking off to go do that.

467
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:37,200
And Ayane, again, is like, no, and drags her back.

468
00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:44,200
Sawako cannot confess because she's actually scared of him for some reason.

469
00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:48,200
And even if he says, yes, they can't date like that because you can't date someone you're like afraid of,

470
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:51,200
Sawako needs to be sure of her feelings or it won't work.

471
00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:53,200
Chizu thinks that she might even...

472
00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:56,200
Chizu is, yeah, she's like, well, she might not even believe us if we told her.

473
00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:59,200
She might think we're just like trying to make her feel better.

474
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:02,200
Then Chizu thinks back to her conversation earlier with Kazehaya

475
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:09,200
and how maybe telling him that he and Sawako were the furthest in the group apart was like a bad call.

476
00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:15,200
We get like a pretty funny visual of this where it gets like, it gets chibi and we also get the...

477
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:18,200
Did you ever play any of the WarioWare games?

478
00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:19,200
The what?

479
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:20,200
WarioWare?

480
00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:21,200
Like the...

481
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:22,200
No, I did not.

482
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:24,200
There's like a big...

483
00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:28,200
At the bottom of the screen, there's like a big long fuse line that gets lit.

484
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:30,200
And so it's like...

485
00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:32,200
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

486
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:33,200
Yeah, I like that part.

487
00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:34,200
That's funny.

488
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:37,200
It's just her thought process slowly sinking.

489
00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:43,200
Yeah, that's a visual thing I associate with WarioWare because all of the minigames have that timer and it's always a bomb.

490
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:44,200
Stressful, yeah.

491
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:45,200
Yeah.

492
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:47,200
So we got a good bit there.

493
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:48,200
That was pretty funny.

494
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:55,200
Sawako is about to walk into class when she hears the students on the other side gossiping about her cursed seminar.

495
00:29:55,200 --> 00:30:00,200
They're like giving her compliments but in a weird way so she like misunderstands them.

496
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:08,200
But then Kent shows up behind her and he kind of gently like pushes her into class and all the students see her and they all compliment her much more straightforwardly for the seminar yesterday.

497
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:10,200
And she's like, oh, that's great.

498
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:21,200
How's it going?

499
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:23,200
Get wrecked.

500
00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:27,200
It's just the continuing downward spiral.

501
00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:29,200
Yeah, it's getting worse.

502
00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:31,200
It's getting worse.

503
00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:33,200
But like again, this is...

504
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:34,200
This is...

505
00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:36,200
Part of this, I don't know.

506
00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:39,200
It's one of these things where it's like, who's fault is this?

507
00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:40,200
Why is this happening?

508
00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:41,200
Right?

509
00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:42,200
Like what is the thing?

510
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:44,200
And the answer is both of them.

511
00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:48,200
I feel like all of this stuff happening and well, I guess we can get to it when we get to it.

512
00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:52,200
But the fact that Kazahide does not open up to anybody is what is causing this problem.

513
00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:53,200
Yep, yep.

514
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:57,200
Maybe he has some trouble past we don't know about.

515
00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:59,200
If only we knew anything about him.

516
00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:02,200
If only Sawako actually learned stuff about him.

517
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:05,200
Well, he'd have to open up for that to happen.

518
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:09,200
But when they talk, it's always like focused on her.

519
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:10,200
Yeah.

520
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,200
Episode...

521
00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:13,200
What?

522
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:14,200
Oh, you got anything else?

523
00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:16,200
Kento is cringe.

524
00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:19,200
He's cringe?

525
00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:20,200
He's cringy.

526
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:22,200
I think he's intentionally cringy.

527
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:24,200
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

528
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:25,200
Posturing.

529
00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:26,200
He's doing a bit.

530
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:27,200
Yes.

531
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:29,200
He's constantly doing a bit, which I think is cringy.

532
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,200
Everyone calls him the D-bag.

533
00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,200
Like, absolutely wide.

534
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:36,200
What are you drinking out of straw?

535
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:38,200
I'm not drinking out of a straw.

536
00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:39,200
What?

537
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:40,200
Is that your chair?

538
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:43,200
Sounds like a straw, like being closer to plastic styrofoam.

539
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:44,200
Oh, okay.

540
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:45,200
No worries.

541
00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:46,200
Okay.

542
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:48,200
I'll think that came up on the mic.

543
00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:49,200
Anyway.

544
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:50,200
Let's see.

545
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:54,200
Episode five is called Someone I Like.

546
00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:59,200
Sawako tells us that the midterms are over, so we got another time skip.

547
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:02,200
Everybody did better because of Sawako's study group.

548
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:06,200
We also learned that the school festival is coming up soon, and the theme is fantasy.

549
00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:13,200
Joe offers that their class should do a Sawako's Black Magic Cafe themed booth after he overheard

550
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:17,200
some freshmen talking about, like, the legend of Sawako.

551
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:18,200
Yeah.

552
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:21,200
That idea wins the class vote, so they're going to do that.

553
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:27,200
Later, Sawako is showing some girls her garden while Chizu and Ayane just kind of chill behind them.

554
00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:31,200
They're like having a good time, and Kazehaya and the boys roll up on through, and the girls

555
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:34,200
are like, oh, hey, Kazehaya, check out Sawako's garden.

556
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:36,200
Pretty neat, huh?

557
00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:43,200
He looks at it, and then she looks at him, but then she kind of cowered, and he ends up walking past without saying anything to her.

558
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:49,200
And Ayane looks on and gets pissed off.

559
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:50,200
Oh, my God.

560
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:51,200
So good.

561
00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:55,200
Sawako wonders if she's the one pushing him away.

562
00:32:55,200 --> 00:33:01,200
Ayane wonders aloud what she should do now that Sawako and Kazehaya are gridlocked.

563
00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:06,200
Chizu starts to feel like maybe it is her fault for telling Kazehaya that he's distant from Sawako,

564
00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:08,200
and maybe she should do something about it.

565
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:13,200
Ayane asks her if her and Ryu are going to go to the wedding together this weekend,

566
00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:16,200
and she's like, oh, yeah, we're going to go.

567
00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:17,200
It's going to be Sunday.

568
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:20,200
We got to go early, and she's like, oh, OK.

569
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:23,200
We cut to the day of the wedding where Chizu is getting ready.

570
00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:28,200
She's got a dress on and is figuring out how to best apply gel-based eyeliner, which I guess is new to her.

571
00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:30,200
Yeah, gel-based is weird.

572
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:36,200
Liquid eyeliner, at least that's the common term for it here, which is tough.

573
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:37,200
It is tough.

574
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:38,200
I can't do it.

575
00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:40,200
I gave up on that endeavor.

576
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:42,200
It isn't art.

577
00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:45,200
Yeah, well, she does it, and it looks kind of like she applied way too much.

578
00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:47,200
It does not look good.

579
00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:55,200
But don't worry, because Ayane shows up and teases her about it, and then she applies her what looks like nicer makeup to Chizu.

580
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:56,200
Yeah, yeah.

581
00:33:56,200 --> 00:34:03,200
Chizu is probably rocking some H-E-B makeup, and Ayane is rolling up with her Sephora kit, essentially.

582
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:04,200
Yeah.

583
00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:10,200
So she does her makeup, and then Chizu shows her look to this sonata family, and Ryu says that she looks pretty sweet.

584
00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:12,200
We got a quick montage of the wedding.

585
00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:17,200
At one point, Tora tells Chizu that they'll never lose touch, even though they're not related.

586
00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:18,200
I thought that was weird.

587
00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:19,200
It's like, cool.

588
00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:21,200
I mean, I feel like I get why you'd want to put that in there.

589
00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:24,200
Just final closure, whatever.

590
00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:26,200
What do you think of her outfit?

591
00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:30,200
I don't like the dress, and I don't like her hair styling.

592
00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:31,200
You don't like her dress?

593
00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:36,200
Also, I don't like the color of her eyeshadow, but like, that looks good.

594
00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:38,200
Do you like any part of it?

595
00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:39,200
Okay.

596
00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:44,200
Her lips and like, mascara and stuff look good.

597
00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:45,200
I don't know.

598
00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:46,200
I just don't like the dress.

599
00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:54,200
The black and like, that color purple don't necessarily go together that well, and it's not necessarily flattering.

600
00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:58,200
It's got green eyeshadow.

601
00:34:58,200 --> 00:34:59,200
That doesn't go with it.

602
00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:01,200
She does have green eyes.

603
00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:08,200
If you have brown eyes, purple and brown are the colors of eyeshadow to go with, which would make sense.

604
00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:10,200
And her freaking dress is purple.

605
00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:12,200
God damn it, Ayane.

606
00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:17,200
And then I don't like the, I don't like the rose in her hair.

607
00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:18,200
You don't?

608
00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:19,200
I don't think so.

609
00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:20,200
You don't like it?

610
00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:24,200
It's too childlike, I think, the rose in the hair.

611
00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:26,200
It's very little girl vibe.

612
00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:30,200
I mean, but the, but what's her face also has one?

613
00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:31,200
Ayane?

614
00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:33,200
Aruka, the bride.

615
00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:35,200
She also has one in the picture.

616
00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:36,200
Okay.

617
00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:38,200
You don't like the dress?

618
00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:39,200
How's it going with the dress?

619
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:41,200
It's frumpy.

620
00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:51,200
Like it's like what you wear, it is what you wear to like, I don't know, some obligatory family wedding, I guess, before you have a sense of style.

621
00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:55,200
It's more like a middle school dress than a high school dress.

622
00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:56,200
Okay.

623
00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:57,200
I don't know what's wrong with it.

624
00:35:57,200 --> 00:35:58,200
It's just like a dress.

625
00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:00,200
It has a sash with like that's tied into a bow.

626
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:01,200
Yeah, gross.

627
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:02,200
That's pretty good.

628
00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:06,200
It's also little girl too.

629
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:13,200
It's like the outfit of a toddler going to a wedding for an adult woman wearing it.

630
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:15,200
Yeah, but like, she's this whole thing, she's really tall.

631
00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:19,200
So I feel like that is fine to do like a vice-sector thing.

632
00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:31,200
I feel like Shizu needs, like, I feel like in her normal like clothes, she's pretty trendy or like she has those nice long legs.

633
00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:36,200
So I don't know, she should have worn something like maybe a maxi dress or something.

634
00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:39,200
And she's going to a family wedding.

635
00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:41,200
Yeah, maxi dress, cover them legs.

636
00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:43,200
It's a formal event.

637
00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:44,200
Okay.

638
00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:47,200
I don't think it's a problem.

639
00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:49,200
Meh, it's whatever.

640
00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:51,200
I guess you don't want to outstitch the bride.

641
00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:52,200
No.

642
00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:56,200
We need to not, okay, sorry, continue.

643
00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:57,200
Okay.

644
00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:59,200
What was I doing?

645
00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:00,200
I don't know.

646
00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:02,200
Oh yeah, they got a picture together.

647
00:37:02,200 --> 00:37:05,200
Toru, Haruka, Ryu and Shizu all get a photo together and it's cute.

648
00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:13,200
Afterwards, Ryu has gone for a run and Shizu is like standing there waiting for him at some corner.

649
00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:18,200
Like the animation where he's not actually moving on the screen.

650
00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:23,200
Yeah, that's fun.

651
00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:25,200
She's wearing heels.

652
00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:27,200
She's wearing heels.

653
00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:30,200
It looks kind of cold.

654
00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:31,200
You live in the countryside.

655
00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:34,200
I would not want to be walking around in heels.

656
00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:37,200
I think the implication is that she doesn't really go home.

657
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:38,200
You know what I mean?

658
00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:41,200
Like he hasn't gone home and like changed all the way.

659
00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:43,200
She changed everything but her shoes.

660
00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:45,200
Those are the shoes she was wearing.

661
00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:47,200
Those were like green shoes.

662
00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:48,200
They wouldn't have gone with her outfit.

663
00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:50,200
Okay, I don't know what she's wearing.

664
00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:51,200
She explains the green eyeshadow.

665
00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:54,200
This entire next scene is a little weird.

666
00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:56,200
Yes, it is.

667
00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:58,200
Anyway, she stops him while he's on his run.

668
00:37:58,200 --> 00:38:02,200
She goes to a convenience store and buys him a soda or something.

669
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:05,200
She brings it out to him and they're chilling out the side of the store.

670
00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:07,200
She brings up the upcoming summer tournament.

671
00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:09,200
She's like, oh yeah, this is coming up soon, huh?

672
00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:10,200
You should.

673
00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:12,200
And then she wishes him good luck.

674
00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:13,200
And he's like, cool.

675
00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:15,200
Anyway, what's up?

676
00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:19,200
Why are you talking to me out here?

677
00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:21,200
And he's like, yeah, there's something you want to say to me.

678
00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:27,200
And we get a cut away to like the entryway of the convenience store.

679
00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:31,200
And when we return, we get a slow pan of Cheezoo who has executed a

680
00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:35,200
Kavadan maneuver, which is when you are like facing the other person

681
00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:38,200
and they have their back against the wall and you press your hand up

682
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:41,200
against the wall kind of like entrapping them a little bit.

683
00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:43,200
That's a meme.

684
00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:44,200
Yeah, so it's.

685
00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:45,200
This is an anime trope.

686
00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:46,200
Yes, it is.

687
00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:50,200
I know like Prince Fasket comes to mind with Toru and Keo,

688
00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:52,200
but it happens a lot.

689
00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:53,200
Yes.

690
00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:55,200
Although this is a reversal because usually the guy is the one doing it,

691
00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:56,200
but now it's Cheezoo doing it.

692
00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:58,200
Yeah, that's because she's cool.

693
00:38:58,200 --> 00:39:01,200
Because she's cool and their faces are really close to each other.

694
00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:07,200
And Cheezoo says, please Ryu and Ryu is like, no, I'm not going to be doing that.

695
00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:08,200
And she's like, why not?

696
00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:11,200
And he's like, because, and we get a reveal that she's asking him to tell

697
00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:14,200
Kazehaya that he and Sawako are actually really close.

698
00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:16,200
And he was like, I can't.

699
00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:18,200
That's not going to make any sense if I say that,

700
00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:21,200
but I guess I will talk to him about Sawako.

701
00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:23,200
But that's just because I'm friends with him.

702
00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:27,200
It's not because you're wanting me to be fine.

703
00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:29,200
And then we get the end of that scene.

704
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:33,200
That scene ends a real tease to like, you know, I know, I know.

705
00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:37,200
Because I feel like he wasn't necessarily making eye contact with her.

706
00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:42,200
Like he might have been like that's his way of showing us that we could see him

707
00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:45,200
being slightly nervous because he was like, oh, that he was into it.

708
00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:50,200
Yeah, well, he's like looking off like not directly into her eyes the whole time.

709
00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:52,200
Yeah.

710
00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:53,200
Yeah.

711
00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:55,200
Yeah, she's being really intimate with him.

712
00:39:55,200 --> 00:40:00,200
I don't know if she's trying to like use her womanly wiles to get her way.

713
00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:04,200
Or she's just like, no, because I feel like this is also a thing where you see

714
00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:09,200
like, oh, they're in a alleyway next to the supermarket and a bully's trying to

715
00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:13,200
take somebody's money and she can do intimidation.

716
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:17,200
Like that. I don't think she's actually like, yeah, this doesn't really

717
00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:19,200
actually make sense for her character to do this.

718
00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:21,200
I think they're just doing this because it's like, ooh, then you think they're

719
00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:24,200
going to like do a romance thing, but it's actually about something else.

720
00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:29,200
I mean, the gesture of trying to get Ryu to bail her out of the hole she dug

721
00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:31,200
herself makes sense.

722
00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:35,200
But just yeah, this intimacy.

723
00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:37,200
The framing. Yeah.

724
00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:39,200
Is very much teasing the audience about it.

725
00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:42,200
But you know, I guess we have half the season left.

726
00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:45,200
Maybe they can actually do something with Ryu and Shizu, but they don't.

727
00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:48,200
That's all we get for these episodes.

728
00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:50,200
It's the next day and everyone's eating lunch.

729
00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:54,200
Sawako is worried about the dark magic cafe because she doesn't really have any

730
00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:58,200
actual psychic abilities, but she's in a on air like it's fine.

731
00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:00,200
It's just kind of a bit anyway.

732
00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:04,200
Sometime passes and Kent runs into her watering the plants.

733
00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:05,200
She's like watering him.

734
00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:06,200
He like pops out of the window.

735
00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:07,200
He's like, hey, what's up?

736
00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:09,200
He invites her to have a chat.

737
00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:12,200
Nearby, Penn sees them talking.

738
00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:15,200
Did you like the song he was singing?

739
00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:18,200
As he came up with the song, Penn was singing.

740
00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:19,200
Yeah.

741
00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:20,200
What was it?

742
00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:21,200
It was like some.

743
00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:25,200
Yeah, it's just him being like, I'm sorry, ladies.

744
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:27,200
I'm just too.

745
00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:29,200
You know, like.

746
00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:30,200
Yeah.

747
00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:32,200
Yeah.

748
00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:33,200
Yeah.

749
00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:35,200
This is this is this has been a good string of episodes for Penn.

750
00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:39,200
I again, I like Penn at the end of these episodes.

751
00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:40,200
Yes.

752
00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:42,200
It's gonna be a roller coaster with him.

753
00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:45,200
I'm always up and down on Penn, not actually because of him.

754
00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:47,200
Like everything his character does is totally fine.

755
00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:51,200
It's just like the way the show keeps positioning him too close to IAANNE is like,

756
00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:53,200
I do not trust this show.

757
00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:54,200
Yep.

758
00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:55,200
Yep.

759
00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:56,200
Yeah.

760
00:41:56,200 --> 00:41:58,200
Elsewhere, Kazehai and Ryu are eating lunch in the cafeteria.

761
00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:02,200
Do you see Joe eating a whole?

762
00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:05,200
Yeah.

763
00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:08,200
He's just eating a baguette.

764
00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:10,200
It's very funny.

765
00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:11,200
Yeah.

766
00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:12,200
Oh man.

767
00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:13,200
He's like, he's like a little hamster.

768
00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:16,200
He's just like biting off ends of it.

769
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:17,200
Yeah.

770
00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:18,200
Yeah.

771
00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:21,200
So Kazehai and Ryu are eating lunch at the cafeteria.

772
00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:24,200
Ryu is trying to think about how to bring Sawako up.

773
00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:29,200
And the thing he decides on saying is, Hey man, you got to confess to Sawako or not.

774
00:42:29,200 --> 00:42:33,200
Kazehai is like, what's the why are you asking me that?

775
00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:37,200
But then he does eventually say that he doesn't really know what he's going to do anymore.

776
00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:40,200
He used to do whatever he wanted to around here and just like act normal.

777
00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:42,200
But now it feels like he's, yeah.

778
00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:43,200
Yeah.

779
00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:45,200
But now he feels like he's just being a bother to her.

780
00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:47,200
So like he's totally lost now.

781
00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:54,200
He asks Ryu if he thinks that she thinks he's a bother and Ryu is like, I don't, I kind of doubt it.

782
00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:56,200
I don't think she thinks that.

783
00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:59,200
And Kazehai is like, yeah, I don't think that either really.

784
00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:01,200
But then Pinsie's them.

785
00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:02,200
Yeah.

786
00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:03,200
And he starts talking to Kazehai.

787
00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:06,200
He's like, oh, you eat lunch at the cafeteria, you little weirdo.

788
00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:10,200
And then he sits down and tells him that his wife is cheating on him with Kent.

789
00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:13,200
Kazehai gets so riled up.

790
00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:17,200
He stands up angrily, but then he gets embarrassed and sits back down.

791
00:43:17,200 --> 00:43:21,200
He's like, that's just admitting to pin.

792
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:24,200
I mean, Pinn clearly already knows, but it's very funny.

793
00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:32,200
He tells Pinn that it's not cheating and Pinn's like, oh, oh, so that means you totally got dumped while it wrecked.

794
00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:35,200
And Kazehai is like, no, I did not get dumped.

795
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:37,200
That's not it either.

796
00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:44,200
And Pinn is like, well, if he didn't, if he didn't get dumped, that can only mean one thing, which is that you never asked her out in the first place.

797
00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:51,200
LMAO couldn't get your courage up to confess under the jungle gym, little boy.

798
00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:56,200
This is very funny. Pinn is Kazehai's childhood bully.

799
00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:59,200
This is just Kazehai's life.

800
00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:01,200
No wonder he doesn't tell anyone anything.

801
00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:04,200
He's going to be weaponized against him by Pinn.

802
00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:07,200
I mean, again, but it's funny, but also this does work.

803
00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:09,200
This is the only thing that gets Kazehai to do anything.

804
00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:11,200
He has to be riled up.

805
00:44:11,200 --> 00:44:14,200
Yes, Kazehai is too comfortable.

806
00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:15,200
This is his problem.

807
00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:17,200
He needs to be pricked out.

808
00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:20,200
He needs to be like, you got to poke him or he won't do anything.

809
00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:25,200
Kazehai tells Pinn and Ryu that honestly, he doesn't feel like he understands Sawako at all.

810
00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:30,200
And Pinn's like, yeah, man, that's like totally, that's how dating works.

811
00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:32,200
What did you think? It was going to be different for you?

812
00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:37,200
Kazehai gets up and he's like, Pinn, where did you last see Sawako?

813
00:44:37,200 --> 00:44:40,200
And then he rushes off to go see her elsewhere.

814
00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:42,200
Sawako and Kinn are sitting on a bench outside.

815
00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:45,200
Kinn congratulates her for like finally fitting in with her class.

816
00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:46,200
He's like, you did it.

817
00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:49,200
And Sawako comes to the realization that she did it.

818
00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:52,200
She fits in with her class and like can hang out with them and stuff.

819
00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:54,200
And like, she accomplished her goal.

820
00:44:54,200 --> 00:44:58,200
Kids like, yeah, man, now you don't need like Kazehai always helping you out.

821
00:44:58,200 --> 00:44:59,200
Isn't that great?

822
00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:03,200
And Kazehai looks sad and Kinko is like, oh, you're not like happy about that.

823
00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:06,200
Did you like want more of Kazehai's attention?

824
00:45:06,200 --> 00:45:08,200
Sawako reflects on her life goals.

825
00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:11,200
Originally, she just wanted to make some friends and fit in.

826
00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:15,200
She says that getting Kazehai's attention was just the privilege of being lonely.

827
00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:20,200
And he's like, that makes sense that like you get the wrong idea about him because of how he talked to you, you know,

828
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:23,200
and Sawako gets super embarrassed because he's read her mind again.

829
00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:25,200
He knows that she likes him.

830
00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:33,200
He continues saying that it's not like he does, you know, it's not like Kazehai has any like bad intentions or anything when he's like overly nice to like loner girls.

831
00:45:33,200 --> 00:45:38,200
But he doesn't seem kind of like insensitive about like not considering how that looks.

832
00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:42,200
Sawako says that that's not true and rattles off all of his good qualities like in a row.

833
00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:44,200
And Kinn's like, oh man.

834
00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:48,200
Sawako says it's her fault for her fault alone for misinterpreting things.

835
00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:51,200
Kinn's like, well, at least you acknowledge it.

836
00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:54,200
And Sawako is like, all right, we cannot keep talking about this out loud.

837
00:45:54,200 --> 00:45:56,200
This is too embarrassing.

838
00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:04,200
And then Kinn says that it's probably better if she just steers clear of him for a while because now he's like free to do his own stuff, you know,

839
00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:07,200
he doesn't have to worry about you anymore.

840
00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:12,200
And he very mournfully tells her that like also Kazehai has somebody that he likes.

841
00:46:12,200 --> 00:46:17,200
Sawako gets a flashback of Karumi telling her that she got rejected and she's like, oh, this all makes sense now.

842
00:46:17,200 --> 00:46:24,200
And keeps telling or Kinn keeps talking about how this is a good thing actually because she's free to like live her life now.

843
00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:30,200
Sawako is not listening to any of this and gets up and wanders off and Kinn's like, oh, bro, where are you going?

844
00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:33,200
And catches up to her and she starts just like crying.

845
00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:35,200
This scene.

846
00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:36,200
What?

847
00:46:36,200 --> 00:46:43,200
Where she's crying at the tree just like a little drawing the animation.

848
00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:44,200
This scene is funny.

849
00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:52,200
Like she's just like, oh, yeah, she's like blubbering out and he's like, oh, oh, my God.

850
00:46:52,200 --> 00:46:53,200
Can't catch us up there.

851
00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:55,200
Yeah. And he sees that she's crying.

852
00:46:55,200 --> 00:46:59,200
He's like trying to say stuff to make her feel better, but she just like won't stop crying.

853
00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:05,200
And then he looks at her more seriously and is like, well, like why not date me?

854
00:47:05,200 --> 00:47:07,200
I wouldn't mind if it was you.

855
00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:09,200
What do you think of this?

856
00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:12,200
But then well, I got one more sentence left.

857
00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:13,200
Okay.

858
00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:20,200
But before Sawako can say anything, she turns her head to see none other than Kazahaya himself was rushed over here as we cut to credits.

859
00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:25,200
I made a note like, thank God this wasn't the last episode of this group.

860
00:47:25,200 --> 00:47:27,200
Oh, man.

861
00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:28,200
Yeah.

862
00:47:28,200 --> 00:47:34,200
So what I think about Kent being like, this feels like the first actually insincere thing he says.

863
00:47:34,200 --> 00:47:36,200
I think he real this is a pity thing.

864
00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:40,200
He's like, yeah, if it'll help you get over it, you can like date me for a little bit.

865
00:47:40,200 --> 00:47:45,200
You have very, very different reads on the situation because really.

866
00:47:45,200 --> 00:47:46,200
Okay.

867
00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:47,200
Okay.

868
00:47:47,200 --> 00:47:55,200
You think he's well intending like just trying to like prevent her from getting hurt by like liking Kazahaya, blah, blah, blah.

869
00:47:55,200 --> 00:48:03,200
I think he is meddling intentionally causing friction because he's interesting in her.

870
00:48:03,200 --> 00:48:14,200
And, you know, even at the cost of her being hurt wants to put this wedge between her and Kazahaya so that he can worm his way in.

871
00:48:14,200 --> 00:48:20,200
Maybe only it could be just because he wants to be popular.

872
00:48:20,200 --> 00:48:30,200
He wants to be in the spotlight and Kazahaya is so popular that if he can get the girl that Kazahaya seems to be paying so much attention to it's like he wins against him.

873
00:48:30,200 --> 00:48:31,200
Okay.

874
00:48:31,200 --> 00:48:33,200
That's interesting.

875
00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:35,200
That's not my read at all.

876
00:48:35,200 --> 00:48:36,200
I know.

877
00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:37,200
I wonder what.

878
00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:38,200
I don't know.

879
00:48:38,200 --> 00:48:47,200
Although I feel like most of my read comes from next episode, but like my read of the thing is that he actually believes Kazahaya is just being nice to her because he's nice to loners.

880
00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:49,200
Like I think he actually believes that about Kazahaya.

881
00:48:49,200 --> 00:48:57,200
I mean, we get the revelation that he realizes that Kazahaya does actually like her as in he didn't think that he did.

882
00:48:57,200 --> 00:49:04,200
So he didn't think that Kazahaya was into her, but he was paying special attention to her.

883
00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:10,200
I think, I think, I think Saloko is funny.

884
00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:12,200
And so she's like hanging out.

885
00:49:12,200 --> 00:49:13,200
He's like hanging out with her.

886
00:49:13,200 --> 00:49:14,200
I don't think he's really that interested in her.

887
00:49:14,200 --> 00:49:19,200
Like when he does this thing, it really does feel like a, yeah, I'll take one for the team.

888
00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:20,200
We can like go out for a little bit of a mix.

889
00:49:20,200 --> 00:49:22,200
You feel better, you know, that kind of thing.

890
00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:25,200
Like I don't think he's actually interested in Saloko that way.

891
00:49:25,200 --> 00:49:28,200
I think he's just trying because this is a last ditch effort for him, right?

892
00:49:28,200 --> 00:49:29,200
Like he does not lead with this.

893
00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:32,200
He's just like, oh, but like there's other guys like, don't worry about it.

894
00:49:32,200 --> 00:49:33,200
Like all this stuff is okay.

895
00:49:33,200 --> 00:49:34,200
Like it's going to be fine.

896
00:49:34,200 --> 00:49:35,200
You know what I mean?

897
00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:37,200
And then he's like, well, you know, you could you could date me.

898
00:49:37,200 --> 00:49:42,200
And even when he says he's like, I wouldn't mind if it was you, which is not really the thing you say if you actually.

899
00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:43,200
Well, okay.

900
00:49:43,200 --> 00:49:44,200
Here's the thing.

901
00:49:44,200 --> 00:49:48,200
He's got like this reputation of hitting up chicks.

902
00:49:48,200 --> 00:49:52,200
Yeah, I'm assuming he's probably like dated a lot.

903
00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:55,200
Or like that's his whole personality in high school.

904
00:49:55,200 --> 00:49:56,200
He's peeking in high school.

905
00:49:56,200 --> 00:50:02,200
Like his thing is to be popular with girls and but it's like turned into a bad thing.

906
00:50:02,200 --> 00:50:03,200
Kind of.

907
00:50:03,200 --> 00:50:09,200
But I just, I think he doesn't like her.

908
00:50:09,200 --> 00:50:11,200
He finds her amusing.

909
00:50:11,200 --> 00:50:20,200
I don't, I don't remember what we learn of his backstory, but I'm assuming it's like he keeps like a very shallow facade with everyone.

910
00:50:20,200 --> 00:50:22,200
It doesn't get deep.

911
00:50:22,200 --> 00:50:25,200
So he's probably like lonely or bored.

912
00:50:25,200 --> 00:50:30,200
So like she is his new entertainment.

913
00:50:30,200 --> 00:50:35,200
And so, yeah, you know, like he's like a toy to him kind of.

914
00:50:35,200 --> 00:50:36,200
I think he's just messing around.

915
00:50:36,200 --> 00:50:43,200
Like again, like we see, you know, we see him like try to hit on Karumi or whatever, but like he knows that she kind of hates him.

916
00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:46,200
Like he's not seriously expecting her to respond well to that.

917
00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:51,200
And even when she's like brushes him off, his friends like, dang, she's kind of mean and he's like, yeah, it's like way better.

918
00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:53,200
She's like actually being like a real person.

919
00:50:53,200 --> 00:50:55,200
Like I know she's being genuine.

920
00:50:55,200 --> 00:51:01,200
There's a scene where his friend, that guy, is Suru, isn't wearing a scarf.

921
00:51:01,200 --> 00:51:06,200
I thought you'd be like, look, scarf guy no longer has a scarf or something.

922
00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:08,200
Yeah.

923
00:51:08,200 --> 00:51:11,200
Now we don't really see much of Suru in these episodes.

924
00:51:11,200 --> 00:51:12,200
But yeah.

925
00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:15,200
So I think he, I think he's mostly just bored and mostly just messing around.

926
00:51:15,200 --> 00:51:16,200
Yeah.

927
00:51:16,200 --> 00:51:17,200
I don't think he's serious about any of this.

928
00:51:17,200 --> 00:51:22,200
Like I don't think he's actually trying to like ask these girls out because he's always asking people he like knows, don't care.

929
00:51:22,200 --> 00:51:23,200
You know what I mean?

930
00:51:23,200 --> 00:51:28,200
But you don't think he's like just intentionally messing it up for other guys too?

931
00:51:28,200 --> 00:51:32,200
Like if they don't like him, then he doesn't want to be with anyone else.

932
00:51:32,200 --> 00:51:33,200
I mean he does.

933
00:51:33,200 --> 00:51:35,200
He is friends.

934
00:51:35,200 --> 00:51:36,200
Yeah.

935
00:51:36,200 --> 00:51:37,200
I don't think he's just messing.

936
00:51:37,200 --> 00:51:38,200
I don't think he's trying to mess things up.

937
00:51:38,200 --> 00:51:44,200
Like I think he actually believes that like he knows Sawako likes Kazihaia and he actually believes that Kazihaia likes somebody else.

938
00:51:44,200 --> 00:51:48,200
So he's like trying to create distance between them so that he can.

939
00:51:48,200 --> 00:51:50,200
It's so obvious though.

940
00:51:50,200 --> 00:51:51,200
Get off.

941
00:51:51,200 --> 00:51:54,200
Like she can get off without like her heart being broken that hard.

942
00:51:54,200 --> 00:51:55,200
You know what I mean?

943
00:51:55,200 --> 00:51:57,200
He is trying to create a soft landing for her.

944
00:51:57,200 --> 00:51:59,200
He's not a good guy.

945
00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:00,200
That's my stance.

946
00:52:00,200 --> 00:52:01,200
Okay.

947
00:52:01,200 --> 00:52:05,200
I feel like, again, I don't know like this is like he's meddling.

948
00:52:05,200 --> 00:52:10,200
But again, you know, it kind of comes down to if somebody doesn't do anything, these guys are never going to get together at all.

949
00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:11,200
Yeah.

950
00:52:11,200 --> 00:52:15,200
So like in terms of a plot, like he's important to the plot.

951
00:52:15,200 --> 00:52:17,200
I'm glad he's here for the story.

952
00:52:17,200 --> 00:52:18,200
You know what I'm saying?

953
00:52:18,200 --> 00:52:19,200
Yeah.

954
00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:20,200
I suppose.

955
00:52:20,200 --> 00:52:21,200
You still there?

956
00:52:21,200 --> 00:52:22,200
Yeah.

957
00:52:22,200 --> 00:52:23,200
Sorry.

958
00:52:23,200 --> 00:52:25,200
I was feeling a decal off a sticker.

959
00:52:25,200 --> 00:52:26,200
I just.

960
00:52:26,200 --> 00:52:27,200
Sorry.

961
00:52:27,200 --> 00:52:28,200
I got distracted.

962
00:52:28,200 --> 00:52:29,200
Yeah.

963
00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:30,200
Yeah.

964
00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:31,200
We're going to see.

965
00:52:31,200 --> 00:52:33,200
I mean, yeah.

966
00:52:33,200 --> 00:52:34,200
Right.

967
00:52:34,200 --> 00:52:38,200
I don't remember season two like at all.

968
00:52:38,200 --> 00:52:41,200
So other than the Valentine's Day thing.

969
00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:46,200
So it's remembered territory from here on out.

970
00:52:46,200 --> 00:52:49,200
Clean sleep.

971
00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:50,200
Yeah.

972
00:52:50,200 --> 00:52:51,200
All right.

973
00:52:51,200 --> 00:52:52,200
Well, we get it.

974
00:52:52,200 --> 00:52:55,200
So next episode is called.

975
00:52:55,200 --> 00:52:56,200
Oh, yeah.

976
00:52:56,200 --> 00:53:01,200
The other thing I was going to say about Kent real quick is that like he is friends with those like with those girls he talks to.

977
00:53:01,200 --> 00:53:02,200
So like he does have an actual friend.

978
00:53:02,200 --> 00:53:04,200
He can't just be normal around women.

979
00:53:04,200 --> 00:53:07,200
I think it's just written off as kind of a player.

980
00:53:07,200 --> 00:53:12,200
So they can maintain this friendly casual demeanor.

981
00:53:12,200 --> 00:53:16,200
But I don't think he's like actually good friends with any of them.

982
00:53:16,200 --> 00:53:18,200
Maybe he just hangs out with them in groups.

983
00:53:18,200 --> 00:53:20,200
But I don't think I'm genuinely.

984
00:53:20,200 --> 00:53:21,200
You like.

985
00:53:21,200 --> 00:53:22,200
Interacted one time.

986
00:53:22,200 --> 00:53:24,200
How are you reading this much into it?

987
00:53:24,200 --> 00:53:27,200
I mean, whatever.

988
00:53:27,200 --> 00:53:28,200
Episode six.

989
00:53:28,200 --> 00:53:32,200
Episode six is called a favor and bother.

990
00:53:32,200 --> 00:53:36,200
We pick up where things left off cause a high a C is that Kent has like.

991
00:53:36,200 --> 00:53:38,200
Grabbed her arm at one point.

992
00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:41,200
To like make her feel like to say some stuff, you know what I mean?

993
00:53:41,200 --> 00:53:43,200
Like to get her to turn to him.

994
00:53:43,200 --> 00:53:48,200
So he grabs, he grabs Kent by the collar and like push him up against the chain link fence.

995
00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:51,200
It's a fan to know why Kent made her cry.

996
00:53:51,200 --> 00:53:52,200
Solicone.

997
00:53:52,200 --> 00:53:53,200
Solicone explains.

998
00:53:53,200 --> 00:53:56,200
Walks in and like she's crying.

999
00:53:56,200 --> 00:53:59,200
He's like physically put hands on her.

1000
00:53:59,200 --> 00:54:02,200
Like did he do something to make her cry?

1001
00:54:02,200 --> 00:54:08,200
And make her cry with like cruel intentions so he gets like, you know, I don't know,

1002
00:54:08,200 --> 00:54:10,200
defensive, possessive, whatever.

1003
00:54:10,200 --> 00:54:11,200
Yeah.

1004
00:54:11,200 --> 00:54:16,200
So I was like, yeah, this is I'm not rooting at this.

1005
00:54:16,200 --> 00:54:22,200
Solico explains that Kent was just trying to encourage her and that was all and it's like nobody's fault.

1006
00:54:22,200 --> 00:54:23,200
None of this is anybody's fault.

1007
00:54:23,200 --> 00:54:25,200
And cause a high is confused.

1008
00:54:25,200 --> 00:54:30,200
For some reason, three random guys see cause a high and start approaching.

1009
00:54:30,200 --> 00:54:34,200
But then they see that like it's cause a high who's kind of looking angry.

1010
00:54:34,200 --> 00:54:36,200
There's Kent, who's the guy nobody likes.

1011
00:54:36,200 --> 00:54:41,200
And then there's Solico who's crying and they start laughing at the absurdity of the situation.

1012
00:54:41,200 --> 00:54:43,200
They're like, oh man, what's going on here?

1013
00:54:43,200 --> 00:54:46,200
Cause a high is like, are you and Kent fighting over Sotico?

1014
00:54:46,200 --> 00:54:47,200
That's crazy.

1015
00:54:47,200 --> 00:54:50,200
And Solico thinks that this is an incredibly poorly timed joke.

1016
00:54:50,200 --> 00:54:55,200
Well, cause a high is like, yeah, that's like exactly what's happening actually.

1017
00:54:55,200 --> 00:55:06,200
The guys are like, wait, really? Like actually you like Solico and cause a high is like, yes, I like Solico and everybody is shocked, including Solico and Kent.

1018
00:55:06,200 --> 00:55:10,200
Then cause a high is like, is there something wrong with that?

1019
00:55:10,200 --> 00:55:12,200
Is that you guys got a problem?

1020
00:55:12,200 --> 00:55:15,200
And those three guys are like, oh, no, no.

1021
00:55:15,200 --> 00:55:16,200
Solico.

1022
00:55:16,200 --> 00:55:17,200
Yeah.

1023
00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:22,200
Solico gets a flashback of all the moments she shared with cause a higher in season one.

1024
00:55:22,200 --> 00:55:27,200
She says that what he said is very misleading.

1025
00:55:27,200 --> 00:55:29,200
And the guys are like, oh, like, don't worry.

1026
00:55:29,200 --> 00:55:34,200
Like we'd never actually believe that you and cause a high were dating and they start laughing and cause a high tells them to stop.

1027
00:55:34,200 --> 00:55:39,200
And then he looks at Solico and says, if he's bothering her, she should just tell him.

1028
00:55:39,200 --> 00:55:41,200
She says nothing and he starts to walk off.

1029
00:55:41,200 --> 00:55:45,200
Solico finally calls out to him and then starts to follow after it.

1030
00:55:45,200 --> 00:55:50,200
Kent looks at those two leaving and then back at the other guys and he's like, oh, did you guys hear that?

1031
00:55:50,200 --> 00:55:54,200
That's the warning bell. We better get back to class and like escorts them all back.

1032
00:55:54,200 --> 00:55:56,200
Interception.

1033
00:55:56,200 --> 00:55:59,200
And the guys are like, why are you like escorting us?

1034
00:55:59,200 --> 00:56:01,200
We don't need to be escorted back.

1035
00:56:01,200 --> 00:56:08,200
And while he's going, Kent thinks to himself how he is mortified that he misread cause a high is that hard as they walk back.

1036
00:56:08,200 --> 00:56:11,200
This is why I feel like this is him being a good guy is because he's like, oh, shit.

1037
00:56:11,200 --> 00:56:13,200
I actually got this wrong.

1038
00:56:13,200 --> 00:56:16,200
He's just blase about a lot though.

1039
00:56:16,200 --> 00:56:18,200
I feel like to hand the stakes aren't that high.

1040
00:56:18,200 --> 00:56:24,200
I feel like you're making your life that way more negative.

1041
00:56:24,200 --> 00:56:28,200
In class, the girls notice that Solico and Kazekai are missing.

1042
00:56:28,200 --> 00:56:32,200
Solico finally catches up to him, but doesn't know what to say.

1043
00:56:32,200 --> 00:56:35,200
She still doesn't quite believe that he likes her.

1044
00:56:35,200 --> 00:56:40,200
He asks her why she was crying and Solico apologizes for things that bother to him.

1045
00:56:40,200 --> 00:56:44,200
He tells her that she's never been a bother and she should stop saying that.

1046
00:56:44,200 --> 00:56:48,200
He's not just being nice to her. He actually likes her.

1047
00:56:48,200 --> 00:56:50,200
He's like this whole time I've like, I'm not treating you.

1048
00:56:50,200 --> 00:56:53,200
I've not been trying to treat you the same as everybody else.

1049
00:56:53,200 --> 00:57:01,200
He asks her if she likes him and she says yes, he's happy, but then says he thinks that his like and her like don't mean the same thing.

1050
00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:07,200
And at that, Solico agrees and Kazekai walks off dejected.

1051
00:57:07,200 --> 00:57:13,200
Solico collapses on the ground crying and they're both counted absent in class.

1052
00:57:13,200 --> 00:57:14,200
Oh no.

1053
00:57:14,200 --> 00:57:16,200
Skip in class.

1054
00:57:16,200 --> 00:57:19,200
Get wrecked. God, these two.

1055
00:57:19,200 --> 00:57:22,200
The misunderstandings never ending.

1056
00:57:22,200 --> 00:57:27,200
It's like not even that much of a misunderstanding. It's like it's such a near miss.

1057
00:57:27,200 --> 00:57:29,200
Just elaborate.

1058
00:57:29,200 --> 00:57:30,200
Right.

1059
00:57:30,200 --> 00:57:33,200
Just continue talking like too much.

1060
00:57:33,200 --> 00:57:38,200
You know, you say, you say, oh, I don't think they're the same thing, but you don't explain what each one is.

1061
00:57:38,200 --> 00:57:43,200
If you just explain what each one is, you would have resolved this, but no, you just have to leave it there.

1062
00:57:43,200 --> 00:57:54,200
Well, you think like in the beginning of season one, Solico learned like how much it helps to like explain everything to prevent misunderstandings.

1063
00:57:54,200 --> 00:57:57,200
And then she like does that to excess.

1064
00:57:57,200 --> 00:58:00,200
And then if only she was doing that now.

1065
00:58:00,200 --> 00:58:04,200
Yeah. Well, now the stakes are so high. The emotional stakes are so high she can't do it.

1066
00:58:04,200 --> 00:58:05,200
Yes.

1067
00:58:05,200 --> 00:58:07,200
Oh.

1068
00:58:07,200 --> 00:58:11,200
We got to some boys gossiping about causing high confessing to Sawako.

1069
00:58:11,200 --> 00:58:13,200
Karumi overhears this elsewhere.

1070
00:58:13,200 --> 00:58:16,200
Ioni and Chizu ask Kent if he if he's seen Sawako.

1071
00:58:16,200 --> 00:58:25,200
And he says, oh, last time I saw her, she was chilling with me outside on a bench and Ioni accuses of a meddling.

1072
00:58:25,200 --> 00:58:30,200
But they both are but Ioni and Chizu end up taking off.

1073
00:58:30,200 --> 00:58:37,200
And is about to follow them. He's like, oh, maybe I should go to actually, but he's stopped when Karumi catches the back of his shirt.

1074
00:58:37,200 --> 00:58:40,200
And she demands that he tell her everything.

1075
00:58:40,200 --> 00:58:44,200
He says that, you know, he might have majorly screwed up.

1076
00:58:44,200 --> 00:58:46,200
So I was crying.

1077
00:58:46,200 --> 00:58:47,200
Yeah, big time.

1078
00:58:47,200 --> 00:58:50,200
So I was crying in the corner outside.

1079
00:58:50,200 --> 00:58:52,200
And sees her and gets scared.

1080
00:58:52,200 --> 00:58:55,200
He's like, oh, shit.

1081
00:58:55,200 --> 00:58:56,200
What a sight.

1082
00:58:56,200 --> 00:59:01,200
It's like a really sad looking Sawako in a corner outside of the building.

1083
00:59:01,200 --> 00:59:06,200
Then he remembers his talk with Kazehaya earlier and she's like, oh, dang, did you dump his ass?

1084
00:59:06,200 --> 00:59:10,200
And she responds by saying that she got rejected, actually.

1085
00:59:10,200 --> 00:59:13,200
And it's like, but that doesn't doesn't make any sense.

1086
00:59:13,200 --> 00:59:16,200
He like rushed over here to see you just to dump you.

1087
00:59:16,200 --> 00:59:17,200
That doesn't make any sense.

1088
00:59:17,200 --> 00:59:19,200
Listen, Sawako, that guy fucking sucks.

1089
00:59:19,200 --> 00:59:20,200
Forget her.

1090
00:59:20,200 --> 00:59:22,200
Forget he ever existed.

1091
00:59:22,200 --> 00:59:25,200
Which is actually kind of why she's trying to console her.

1092
00:59:25,200 --> 00:59:27,200
Yeah, pins a nice guy.

1093
00:59:27,200 --> 00:59:30,200
Just a dumbass.

1094
00:59:30,200 --> 00:59:40,200
Ionane and Cheez-Ee see the two of them together and they like castigate Pin for saying weird stuff to her.

1095
00:59:40,200 --> 00:59:41,200
And they send him off.

1096
00:59:41,200 --> 00:59:44,200
He's like, whatever, I'm leaving it.

1097
00:59:44,200 --> 00:59:46,200
They demand Sawako tell them what happened.

1098
00:59:46,200 --> 00:59:50,200
She fills them in and Ionane is furious.

1099
00:59:50,200 --> 00:59:51,200
She blames Kent.

1100
00:59:51,200 --> 00:59:58,200
Sawako says that she thinks that she's conceded because she thought Kazehaya was treating her the same as everyone else,

1101
00:59:58,200 --> 01:00:01,200
but she was wrong and was always putting him out.

1102
01:00:01,200 --> 01:00:03,200
Ionane is about to comfort her.

1103
01:00:03,200 --> 01:00:10,200
Well, she's about to say something to her when she steps in and says that she doesn't like Sawako's attitude.

1104
01:00:10,200 --> 01:00:14,200
She asks if she thinks that all of her friends are just friends because they pity her.

1105
01:00:14,200 --> 01:00:18,200
And then she gets mad that Sawako isn't valuing herself and storms off.

1106
01:00:18,200 --> 01:00:20,200
I cried at the assist.

1107
01:00:20,200 --> 01:00:27,200
Cheez-Ee started crying. I started crying because they just care about her so much.

1108
01:00:27,200 --> 01:00:29,200
Friendship.

1109
01:00:29,200 --> 01:00:31,200
Yeah. Well, Cheez-Ee's right about this.

1110
01:00:31,200 --> 01:00:32,200
Yes.

1111
01:00:32,200 --> 01:00:34,200
Ionane tells her that Cheez-Ee's just concerned about her.

1112
01:00:34,200 --> 01:00:36,200
So like she's actually mad at you.

1113
01:00:36,200 --> 01:00:42,200
She then says that at first, you know, she thought that Sawako was kind of awkward,

1114
01:00:42,200 --> 01:00:46,200
but now they've become friends after a while and they've grown to love her.

1115
01:00:46,200 --> 01:00:48,200
So like this isn't, we're not pitying you.

1116
01:00:48,200 --> 01:00:50,200
There's no difference.

1117
01:00:50,200 --> 01:00:58,200
She says that there's no difference between them, her, and Kazehaya unless Sawako decides that there is a difference between them.

1118
01:00:58,200 --> 01:01:01,200
Then she says that she's going to go check on Cheez-Ee and runs off.

1119
01:01:01,200 --> 01:01:05,200
Ionane catches up with Cheez-Ee and Cheez-Ee is like, damn it, dude, I did it again.

1120
01:01:05,200 --> 01:01:07,200
I got, I got all, I got all emotional.

1121
01:01:07,200 --> 01:01:09,200
I started yelling.

1122
01:01:09,200 --> 01:01:13,200
Then she apologizes for cutting off Ionane earlier and Ionane was like, oh, don't worry about it.

1123
01:01:13,200 --> 01:01:19,200
I was just going to say like that Kazehaya likes you all super blunt like, but what you said was actually good enough.

1124
01:01:19,200 --> 01:01:21,200
So I didn't need to say that.

1125
01:01:21,200 --> 01:01:33,200
We end on Sawako thinking to herself if she actually ever made an attempt to learn about Kazehaya, she did not and has ever been focusing and all she's ever been doing is focusing on herself as we cut to credits.

1126
01:01:33,200 --> 01:01:35,200
Oh boy.

1127
01:01:35,200 --> 01:01:37,200
Self-reportion.

1128
01:01:37,200 --> 01:01:38,200
Inrect.

1129
01:01:38,200 --> 01:01:58,200
Well, because I guess for the most part, up till now, it's all been how Sawako is interpreting other people's feelings and what they're saying instead of thinking of her own, like thinking about why she's feeling certain things or what she's saying to other people and how they can perceive it sort of.

1130
01:01:58,200 --> 01:01:59,200
I don't know.

1131
01:01:59,200 --> 01:02:02,200
So hopefully this is like a period of reflection.

1132
01:02:02,200 --> 01:02:07,200
I don't know what kind of time passage are we going to have now?

1133
01:02:07,200 --> 01:02:08,200
It can't be that long.

1134
01:02:08,200 --> 01:02:10,200
No, because we got to do the school festival.

1135
01:02:10,200 --> 01:02:13,200
So I don't know how we got to do the school festival, but we got to get the festival.

1136
01:02:13,200 --> 01:02:16,200
Oh my God, it goes down always.

1137
01:02:16,200 --> 01:02:17,200
Yeah.

1138
01:02:17,200 --> 01:02:18,200
The what?

1139
01:02:18,200 --> 01:02:19,200
The panel.

1140
01:02:19,200 --> 01:02:20,200
We got to get the.

1141
01:02:20,200 --> 01:02:21,200
What?

1142
01:02:21,200 --> 01:02:22,200
What'd you say?

1143
01:02:22,200 --> 01:02:24,200
I didn't say anything.

1144
01:02:24,200 --> 01:02:27,200
You said you're about to enter into you.

1145
01:02:27,200 --> 01:02:28,200
Oh, we got to get the payoff.

1146
01:02:28,200 --> 01:02:29,200
We got to get the pay off.

1147
01:02:29,200 --> 01:02:30,200
Pay off.

1148
01:02:30,200 --> 01:02:34,200
I need to see Peruvian can't tear into him.

1149
01:02:34,200 --> 01:02:37,200
She's going to be so pissed off at him.

1150
01:02:37,200 --> 01:02:38,200
It's going to be great.

1151
01:02:38,200 --> 01:02:44,200
Well, because she's almost like a antagonistic godmother now to Sawako, like kind of overseeing

1152
01:02:44,200 --> 01:02:45,200
rules.

1153
01:02:45,200 --> 01:02:51,200
Yeah, but she's like, you ruined her and I are both pissed at Kento.

1154
01:02:51,200 --> 01:02:52,200
Well, they are.

1155
01:02:52,200 --> 01:02:56,200
But again, I feel again, I have a totally different view of Kent than I feel like you

1156
01:02:56,200 --> 01:02:57,200
do.

1157
01:02:57,200 --> 01:02:58,200
Yeah.

1158
01:02:58,200 --> 01:03:03,200
Um, him screwing up here is more useful than them doing nothing.

1159
01:03:03,200 --> 01:03:04,200
Yeah.

1160
01:03:04,200 --> 01:03:05,200
You know what I mean?

1161
01:03:05,200 --> 01:03:11,200
Like, again, all of this is, you know, I honestly, oh, we can't metal and you know,

1162
01:03:11,200 --> 01:03:12,200
Kourumi actually doesn't care.

1163
01:03:12,200 --> 01:03:14,200
So she doesn't get a medal in them that much.

1164
01:03:14,200 --> 01:03:15,200
You know what I mean?

1165
01:03:15,200 --> 01:03:17,200
Actually, I feel like Kourumi would have.

1166
01:03:17,200 --> 01:03:22,200
I feel like if Kourumi was in the loop, she'd be like fucking Sawako stop being a loser.

1167
01:03:22,200 --> 01:03:23,200
Come on.

1168
01:03:23,200 --> 01:03:24,200
Yeah.

1169
01:03:24,200 --> 01:03:25,200
I mean, she does say that at the end of the Valentine's.

1170
01:03:25,200 --> 01:03:30,200
She's like, listen, you got to be, you got to be for real about this.

1171
01:03:30,200 --> 01:03:35,200
But like, again, if Kent doesn't do anything, they do this for the next three years.

1172
01:03:35,200 --> 01:03:36,200
Tag me.

1173
01:03:36,200 --> 01:03:37,200
Yeah.

1174
01:03:37,200 --> 01:03:38,200
You know what I mean?

1175
01:03:38,200 --> 01:03:41,200
Like, yeah, they would never do anything.

1176
01:03:41,200 --> 01:03:42,200
Yeah.

1177
01:03:42,200 --> 01:03:44,200
What do you think?

1178
01:03:44,200 --> 01:03:47,200
So what do you think is going to happen now?

1179
01:03:47,200 --> 01:03:49,600
School festival, something's going to happen.

1180
01:03:49,600 --> 01:03:51,200
What's going to happen?

1181
01:03:51,200 --> 01:03:56,840
I mean, like Sawako has to come to the realization that she's you has basically been right.

1182
01:03:56,840 --> 01:04:01,840
Like the fact that Sawako cannot imagine a reality where somebody likes her romantically

1183
01:04:01,840 --> 01:04:03,840
is a huge problem.

1184
01:04:03,840 --> 01:04:08,280
And like she has to warp all of her interactions around that idea of like people don't actually

1185
01:04:08,280 --> 01:04:10,640
like her.

1186
01:04:10,640 --> 01:04:11,840
And this is what messes everything up.

1187
01:04:11,840 --> 01:04:14,840
I mean, this is like truly the root of all these problems.

1188
01:04:14,840 --> 01:04:15,840
Right.

1189
01:04:15,840 --> 01:04:16,840
Yeah.

1190
01:04:16,840 --> 01:04:20,720
I think Kento is going to talk to Sawako moving forward is going to feel super bad and try

1191
01:04:20,720 --> 01:04:22,240
to help her out.

1192
01:04:22,240 --> 01:04:23,240
Oh, yeah.

1193
01:04:23,240 --> 01:04:25,080
I think for sure he's going to feel bad and help her out.

1194
01:04:25,080 --> 01:04:28,240
I think he's going to be like, I totally like I am so sorry.

1195
01:04:28,240 --> 01:04:32,520
I completely misread the situation that when I said he likes somebody else, he actually

1196
01:04:32,520 --> 01:04:35,920
likes you.

1197
01:04:35,920 --> 01:04:38,840
You know, that that I think is what I do think he's nice.

1198
01:04:38,840 --> 01:04:42,760
I'm drying him off before he gets those words out of his mouth.

1199
01:04:42,760 --> 01:04:44,240
I feel like he would do it.

1200
01:04:44,240 --> 01:04:47,240
Listen, I again, I feel like he is actually nice.

1201
01:04:47,240 --> 01:04:48,240
This is the thing.

1202
01:04:48,240 --> 01:04:51,000
I feel like he is actually nice to people.

1203
01:04:51,000 --> 01:04:52,000
He's metal some.

1204
01:04:52,000 --> 01:04:53,000
What does that mean?

1205
01:04:53,000 --> 01:04:54,000
Why are you?

1206
01:04:54,000 --> 01:04:55,000
Why?

1207
01:04:55,000 --> 01:04:56,720
I think naming metal some is like a bad thing.

1208
01:04:56,720 --> 01:05:01,240
Again, I keep saying if he doesn't metal, nothing happens for more years.

1209
01:05:01,240 --> 01:05:07,880
I'm just saying he's doing all of this stuff, officially just out of his own like desire

1210
01:05:07,880 --> 01:05:14,760
for to see things happen, not because he actually cares about her as a person and wants to help

1211
01:05:14,760 --> 01:05:15,760
her.

1212
01:05:15,760 --> 01:05:18,440
It's just more of like, oh, I want to see this play out kind of.

1213
01:05:18,440 --> 01:05:20,800
I don't think it's I mean, I think it's both.

1214
01:05:20,800 --> 01:05:25,600
I think he wants to see this play out and he also wants to like make good things happen

1215
01:05:25,600 --> 01:05:26,600
for her.

1216
01:05:26,600 --> 01:05:27,600
Cry.

1217
01:05:27,600 --> 01:05:28,600
They'll make him.

1218
01:05:28,600 --> 01:05:29,600
Changes.

1219
01:05:29,600 --> 01:05:30,600
Motivations a little.

1220
01:05:30,600 --> 01:05:34,000
Are you like really think he was like nefarious this whole time?

1221
01:05:34,000 --> 01:05:35,000
Yeah.

1222
01:05:35,000 --> 01:05:36,000
Well, not nefarious.

1223
01:05:36,000 --> 01:05:37,800
How is he nefarious?

1224
01:05:37,800 --> 01:05:38,800
Just not.

1225
01:05:38,800 --> 01:05:40,100
I don't know.

1226
01:05:40,100 --> 01:05:41,100
Not caring.

1227
01:05:41,100 --> 01:05:42,100
Not considerate.

1228
01:05:42,100 --> 01:05:44,600
I think he don't think he cared.

1229
01:05:44,600 --> 01:05:45,600
No.

1230
01:05:45,600 --> 01:05:48,360
He like he set that whole thing up where he was like, oh, I'll make this symbol and that's

1231
01:05:48,360 --> 01:05:50,960
when you know how to smile and everybody will like it.

1232
01:05:50,960 --> 01:05:52,560
I feel like he was actually trying to help her out.

1233
01:05:52,560 --> 01:05:55,840
I mean, I don't I feel again, I feel like he's doing it because he's bored.

1234
01:05:55,840 --> 01:05:57,400
But like, I don't think that's bad necessarily.

1235
01:05:57,400 --> 01:06:00,760
I don't think that makes him like a bad guy that he's helping somebody out because he's

1236
01:06:00,760 --> 01:06:01,760
bored.

1237
01:06:01,760 --> 01:06:04,840
Yeah, it doesn't make him necessarily a good guy either.

1238
01:06:04,840 --> 01:06:06,640
He's a whatever guy.

1239
01:06:06,640 --> 01:06:07,640
OK.

1240
01:06:07,640 --> 01:06:08,640
OK, whatever.

1241
01:06:08,640 --> 01:06:10,640
I mean, like, sure.

1242
01:06:10,640 --> 01:06:11,640
Hmm.

1243
01:06:11,640 --> 01:06:13,760
Yeah, like he's not purely altruistic.

1244
01:06:13,760 --> 01:06:16,440
But then again, like nobody in this is purely altruistic.

1245
01:06:16,440 --> 01:06:17,440
So I don't know.

1246
01:06:17,440 --> 01:06:19,640
I want to say about that.

1247
01:06:19,640 --> 01:06:24,640
But I feel like everything he's doing is trying to be like he's he's trying to let

1248
01:06:24,640 --> 01:06:28,080
Saul go down easy because he doesn't think Kazekai actually likes her and he's pissed

1249
01:06:28,080 --> 01:06:30,560
at Kazekai for not like for leading her on basically.

1250
01:06:30,560 --> 01:06:31,560
That's what he's saying.

1251
01:06:31,560 --> 01:06:33,960
He's like, you've got to stop leading her on, dude.

1252
01:06:33,960 --> 01:06:35,200
He doesn't say that.

1253
01:06:35,200 --> 01:06:37,200
He should just say that.

1254
01:06:37,200 --> 01:06:39,800
But any last thoughts?

1255
01:06:39,800 --> 01:06:40,800
We'll see.

1256
01:06:40,800 --> 01:06:41,800
We'll see.

1257
01:06:41,800 --> 01:06:42,800
Who's right?

1258
01:06:42,800 --> 01:06:43,800
I don't know.

1259
01:06:43,800 --> 01:06:44,800
I mean, that's.

1260
01:06:44,800 --> 01:06:46,800
Oh, I did have a note.

1261
01:06:46,800 --> 01:06:48,880
But Kento needs to you.

1262
01:06:48,880 --> 01:06:54,920
He needs to go get some toner or purple shampoo or something because his hair color is just

1263
01:06:54,920 --> 01:06:55,920
not right.

1264
01:06:55,920 --> 01:06:57,480
It's like one little.

1265
01:06:57,480 --> 01:07:02,680
It's like almost greenish blonde, which is like a thing in games a lot where if there's

1266
01:07:02,680 --> 01:07:08,040
a blonde color option, it's like a heinous, gross ass color.

1267
01:07:08,040 --> 01:07:11,600
Yeah, I don't like the tint to his blonde hair.

1268
01:07:11,600 --> 01:07:15,520
It needs to be more gold than like straight up yellow.

1269
01:07:15,520 --> 01:07:17,080
Oh, yes, you were talking about.

1270
01:07:17,080 --> 01:07:18,800
Yeah, I picture of him.

1271
01:07:18,800 --> 01:07:21,000
Yeah, that's my closing thought.

1272
01:07:21,000 --> 01:07:23,040
Your closing thought on Kent.

1273
01:07:23,040 --> 01:07:24,040
Yeah.

1274
01:07:24,040 --> 01:07:25,040
Yeah.

1275
01:07:25,040 --> 01:07:26,040
I think he's nice.

1276
01:07:26,040 --> 01:07:27,040
I like him.

1277
01:07:27,040 --> 01:07:31,360
But again, I like everybody who'd be like, I liked Karumi when she was mad.

1278
01:07:31,360 --> 01:07:32,360
It's all good.

1279
01:07:32,360 --> 01:07:33,360
Yeah.

1280
01:07:33,360 --> 01:07:36,360
Because again, like, so I don't cause a high.

1281
01:07:36,360 --> 01:07:38,040
I would not do anything.

1282
01:07:38,040 --> 01:07:41,080
This is this is this is the thing I have taken away from this is like if they're not getting

1283
01:07:41,080 --> 01:07:44,800
pushed by some external factor, they are never making any moves.

1284
01:07:44,800 --> 01:07:45,800
Yeah.

1285
01:07:45,800 --> 01:07:46,800
Yeah.

1286
01:07:46,800 --> 01:07:49,880
And part of the reason and I feel like saw because like the main issue with that.

1287
01:07:49,880 --> 01:07:53,320
I mean, the fact that cause a higher like places card close to his chest also does not

1288
01:07:53,320 --> 01:07:54,320
help.

1289
01:07:54,320 --> 01:07:55,320
Yeah.

1290
01:07:55,320 --> 01:07:59,880
But the key thing, I mean, I think the end of what Cheezy says is just true is the problem.

1291
01:07:59,880 --> 01:08:02,720
She just stated the actual problem of everything.

1292
01:08:02,720 --> 01:08:04,680
You know what the problem is?

1293
01:08:04,680 --> 01:08:08,040
They didn't say that they like like each other.

1294
01:08:08,040 --> 01:08:15,520
I'm just like that, I believe no room for misunderstanding.

1295
01:08:15,520 --> 01:08:16,520
Yeah.

1296
01:08:16,520 --> 01:08:17,520
Yeah.

1297
01:08:17,520 --> 01:08:23,280
I mean, you know, cause a highest problem is that he just won't he just won't wait for

1298
01:08:23,280 --> 01:08:24,360
the answer.

1299
01:08:24,360 --> 01:08:27,080
He just keeps being like, oh, I guess we mean different things.

1300
01:08:27,080 --> 01:08:29,080
And then he walks off.

1301
01:08:29,080 --> 01:08:31,640
Finish your thought, man.

1302
01:08:31,640 --> 01:08:32,640
Yeah.

1303
01:08:32,640 --> 01:08:38,000
But I mean, you know what I had is like, I feel bad for him because like, yeah, what

1304
01:08:38,000 --> 01:08:42,160
would suck if the girl you like is like afraid of you for some reason, which is just true.

1305
01:08:42,160 --> 01:08:43,160
It's just true.

1306
01:08:43,160 --> 01:08:44,160
It's rough for him.

1307
01:08:44,160 --> 01:08:45,160
Yeah.

1308
01:08:45,160 --> 01:08:48,160
Let's see back to the most pitiful.

1309
01:08:48,160 --> 01:08:51,160
Oh, Ryu handing the baton back.

1310
01:08:51,160 --> 01:08:52,160
I don't know.

1311
01:08:52,160 --> 01:08:57,320
I mean, she does like, you know, Ryu does get like romance moves for not romance reasons.

1312
01:08:57,320 --> 01:09:02,120
So he gets wrecked in a like light, lightweight.

1313
01:09:02,120 --> 01:09:05,720
Like the thing about cause a high is like it should be able to work like there's still

1314
01:09:05,720 --> 01:09:07,240
opportunities for his thing to work.

1315
01:09:07,240 --> 01:09:08,240
I don't know.

1316
01:09:08,240 --> 01:09:11,120
I don't know if really, I don't know what's going on with that at all.

1317
01:09:11,120 --> 01:09:12,120
It's be real.

1318
01:09:12,120 --> 01:09:13,120
Yeah.

1319
01:09:13,120 --> 01:09:14,560
Only have six episodes left.

1320
01:09:14,560 --> 01:09:16,760
How are they going to do everything in six episodes?

1321
01:09:16,760 --> 01:09:17,760
Well, they don't.

1322
01:09:17,760 --> 01:09:20,040
They're not going to season three is coming.

1323
01:09:20,040 --> 01:09:24,360
We're not going to get anything I wanted this season.

1324
01:09:24,360 --> 01:09:27,760
You didn't get what you wanted last season.

1325
01:09:27,760 --> 01:09:30,280
So what makes you think you would this time?

1326
01:09:30,280 --> 01:09:33,560
We spent six episodes and we're not even resolved solid.

1327
01:09:33,560 --> 01:09:37,480
So we're not going to go cause a high yet six episodes.

1328
01:09:37,480 --> 01:09:38,480
We're not going to get.

1329
01:09:38,480 --> 01:09:39,480
We got six more.

1330
01:09:39,480 --> 01:09:40,480
Okay.

1331
01:09:40,480 --> 01:09:42,800
This has to resolve like next episode.

1332
01:09:42,800 --> 01:09:44,600
They have to be dating by the end of this season.

1333
01:09:44,600 --> 01:09:49,120
There's no way they can keep going if they're not dating by the end of the season or dropping

1334
01:09:49,120 --> 01:09:50,120
the show.

1335
01:09:50,120 --> 01:09:52,240
I think this show might be bad actually.

1336
01:09:52,240 --> 01:09:55,080
Or something or like.

1337
01:09:55,080 --> 01:09:58,760
I'm going to make you watch mermaid melody.

1338
01:09:58,760 --> 01:10:00,200
Pitchy, pitchy pitch.

1339
01:10:00,200 --> 01:10:02,400
And then you'll know what bad is.

1340
01:10:02,400 --> 01:10:03,960
What did you just say?

1341
01:10:03,960 --> 01:10:13,240
You just said it's one of the only manga series I've ever gotten rid of after owning art.

1342
01:10:13,240 --> 01:10:18,040
But it's actually like threw it out made straight up like no sense.

1343
01:10:18,040 --> 01:10:22,280
That is like shaman king because I was like, oh, the hair is too pointy.

1344
01:10:22,280 --> 01:10:24,400
I can't deal with this.

1345
01:10:24,400 --> 01:10:28,360
But yeah, just you wait.

1346
01:10:28,360 --> 01:10:38,120
I just started to go on some like more typical low tier and then given this as like a you'll

1347
01:10:38,120 --> 01:10:39,120
have this.

1348
01:10:39,120 --> 01:10:40,120
No, it's not.

1349
01:10:40,120 --> 01:10:42,560
I think I think it'll end on.

1350
01:10:42,560 --> 01:10:44,560
I think I think this season will not disappoint me.

1351
01:10:44,560 --> 01:10:47,720
I think it will end on this stuff.

1352
01:10:47,720 --> 01:10:49,440
It will end on.

1353
01:10:49,440 --> 01:10:50,440
They'll be they'll be together.

1354
01:10:50,440 --> 01:10:51,440
It'll be fine.

1355
01:10:51,440 --> 01:10:54,520
I think it'll be fine because it's just you can't you can't walk this back.

1356
01:10:54,520 --> 01:10:55,520
You know what I mean?

1357
01:10:55,520 --> 01:10:58,160
Like the thing that's nice about these episodes is that this is all big stuff.

1358
01:10:58,160 --> 01:10:59,160
They can't walk.

1359
01:10:59,160 --> 01:11:00,160
Yeah, that's true.

1360
01:11:00,160 --> 01:11:01,160
They can't play it off.

1361
01:11:01,160 --> 01:11:03,200
You know, I don't remember what happens.

1362
01:11:03,200 --> 01:11:05,320
So I have no idea.

1363
01:11:05,320 --> 01:11:08,520
I'm just saying we you know if next episode is the resolution of this, which I feel like

1364
01:11:08,520 --> 01:11:11,760
it kind of has to be or at least like the next two episodes have to be the resolution

1365
01:11:11,760 --> 01:11:12,760
to this.

1366
01:11:12,760 --> 01:11:18,280
We only have four or five episodes to figure out what's going on with Jizo and Ryu, which

1367
01:11:18,280 --> 01:11:19,720
they need to do something with.

1368
01:11:19,720 --> 01:11:24,440
And maybe that's enough time for Ayane to have any kind of character.

1369
01:11:24,440 --> 01:11:25,440
Come on.

1370
01:11:25,440 --> 01:11:28,080
I mean, it better not be Penn.

1371
01:11:28,080 --> 01:11:30,880
How long is the manga series?

1372
01:11:30,880 --> 01:11:40,480
Because right typically one episode of an anime is like three chapters.

1373
01:11:40,480 --> 01:11:46,440
One volume of a manga is about three episodes worth of an anime according to my 13 year

1374
01:11:46,440 --> 01:11:47,440
old calculations.

1375
01:11:47,440 --> 01:11:53,840
And I don't know, depending on the number of volumes, I don't know what like it looks

1376
01:11:53,840 --> 01:11:57,320
like there are 30 volumes, which is a lot.

1377
01:11:57,320 --> 01:11:58,320
23 chapters.

1378
01:11:58,320 --> 01:12:00,040
That's a lot for a show.

1379
01:12:00,040 --> 01:12:03,840
Joe, I've got nothing on Skitbeat, but still.

1380
01:12:03,840 --> 01:12:04,840
Yeah.

1381
01:12:04,840 --> 01:12:05,840
A lot of show.

1382
01:12:05,840 --> 01:12:07,840
Joe, Manga's are like seven volumes.

1383
01:12:07,840 --> 01:12:11,000
I mean, I'm sure there's some chapters in here that are just like little goofy one

1384
01:12:11,000 --> 01:12:12,440
offs that they probably wouldn't adapt.

1385
01:12:12,440 --> 01:12:14,440
But I don't know.

1386
01:12:14,440 --> 01:12:22,400
But I mean, obviously it was things will be left unresolved at the end of season two

1387
01:12:22,400 --> 01:12:25,000
because they didn't finish the story.

1388
01:12:25,000 --> 01:12:26,000
Yeah, I know.

1389
01:12:26,000 --> 01:12:27,280
I'm wondering if we're going to get anything on it.

1390
01:12:27,280 --> 01:12:28,280
You know what I mean?

1391
01:12:28,280 --> 01:12:30,080
Like, is this just a thing that's never going to be addressed or that you're sort of

1392
01:12:30,080 --> 01:12:32,280
doing anything on Ayane unless it's.

1393
01:12:32,280 --> 01:12:33,280
Oh, yeah.

1394
01:12:33,280 --> 01:12:34,280
Come on, man.

1395
01:12:34,280 --> 01:12:36,920
Action possibly is the only.

1396
01:12:36,920 --> 01:12:38,520
Have you have you enjoyed these first six episodes?

1397
01:12:38,520 --> 01:12:42,680
What is your thoughts on this having to like you kind of forgot what was going on?

1398
01:12:42,680 --> 01:12:45,680
Frustration.

1399
01:12:45,680 --> 01:12:47,400
Although we do get to see more.

1400
01:12:47,400 --> 01:12:48,400
I don't.

1401
01:12:48,400 --> 01:12:51,880
God, we've already said it before, but Salah Kuzboy's actor is so good.

1402
01:12:51,880 --> 01:12:57,440
But all the like her like bursting into tears, she be scenes are so funny.

1403
01:12:57,440 --> 01:13:03,920
I mean, we get to see her come and like what she would be like as a normal person more

1404
01:13:03,920 --> 01:13:09,800
versus, you know, like she's more concrete in who she is now, which is nice to see.

1405
01:13:09,800 --> 01:13:14,720
But as far as her and Kazai Haya, it's frustrating to watch.

1406
01:13:14,720 --> 01:13:20,280
Yeah, I can't get over the fact that like if I was watching this week to week, right?

1407
01:13:20,280 --> 01:13:25,280
And I just finished and I was like hype for season two and we open up on the Valentine's

1408
01:13:25,280 --> 01:13:26,280
Day thing.

1409
01:13:26,280 --> 01:13:27,280
Yeah.

1410
01:13:27,280 --> 01:13:31,120
And then six weeks pass and we're here.

1411
01:13:31,120 --> 01:13:32,120
I feel like I would be livid.

1412
01:13:32,120 --> 01:13:33,360
I feel like I'd be losing my mind.

1413
01:13:33,360 --> 01:13:37,040
I mean, again, I feel like where we ended up as like Salah Kuzboy, like the conclusion

1414
01:13:37,040 --> 01:13:40,880
is that Salah Kuzboy cannot accept the fact that people could like her like that.

1415
01:13:40,880 --> 01:13:41,880
Right.

1416
01:13:41,880 --> 01:13:45,840
Like there is a self confidence or self valuing thing that's going on that makes her unable

1417
01:13:45,840 --> 01:13:47,480
to like accept that.

1418
01:13:47,480 --> 01:13:48,480
That's real.

1419
01:13:48,480 --> 01:13:49,600
Like that is a thing that happens to people.

1420
01:13:49,600 --> 01:13:53,160
I know people this has happened to like I've run into this in actual real life.

1421
01:13:53,160 --> 01:13:55,720
So I think that's a good thing to have in the show.

1422
01:13:55,720 --> 01:13:56,720
Yeah.

1423
01:13:56,720 --> 01:13:57,720
But man, it took six episodes.

1424
01:13:57,720 --> 01:13:59,720
It's half the season.

1425
01:13:59,720 --> 01:14:00,720
Yeah.

1426
01:14:00,720 --> 01:14:06,600
I mean, because in the first season, we take breaks between it focusing on them to like

1427
01:14:06,600 --> 01:14:08,800
Chizu and Kiromi.

1428
01:14:08,800 --> 01:14:11,120
But this is like been nonstop.

1429
01:14:11,120 --> 01:14:19,360
Sawako and Kazai Haya like straight without any other like really strong, you know, B

1430
01:14:19,360 --> 01:14:22,160
stories to focus on to break it up.

1431
01:14:22,160 --> 01:14:23,160
Right.

1432
01:14:23,160 --> 01:14:24,160
Yeah.

1433
01:14:24,160 --> 01:14:25,160
Yeah.

1434
01:14:25,160 --> 01:14:26,160
We'll see.

1435
01:14:26,160 --> 01:14:30,200
And also like so much of it so far has been about the actions of everybody else around

1436
01:14:30,200 --> 01:14:31,600
of them trying to influence.

1437
01:14:31,600 --> 01:14:32,600
You know what I mean?

1438
01:14:32,600 --> 01:14:33,600
Yes.

1439
01:14:33,600 --> 01:14:34,600
And that's also kind of frustrating.

1440
01:14:34,600 --> 01:14:37,400
I mean, I guess that's this is the, you know, the actual problem, right?

1441
01:14:37,400 --> 01:14:39,480
Is the fact that neither of them are very active.

1442
01:14:39,480 --> 01:14:40,480
It makes sense.

1443
01:14:40,480 --> 01:14:43,240
Again, it's one of the things like this all makes sense.

1444
01:14:43,240 --> 01:14:46,880
But also it's frustrating knowing that we only have six episodes left to the season.

1445
01:14:46,880 --> 01:14:53,760
And then we got to wait for it to start airing, which it will start airing on August 1st.

1446
01:14:53,760 --> 01:14:54,760
Okay.

1447
01:14:54,760 --> 01:14:58,360
So that's what now it doesn't say it's on Netflix.

1448
01:14:58,360 --> 01:15:02,680
It doesn't say if it's going to drop at all at the same time, which Netflix is like kind

1449
01:15:02,680 --> 01:15:05,880
of what I associate it with, or if it's going to air week by week, which like more stuff

1450
01:15:05,880 --> 01:15:06,880
has been doing.

1451
01:15:06,880 --> 01:15:10,160
I don't know how the anime stuff.

1452
01:15:10,160 --> 01:15:11,160
Yeah.

1453
01:15:11,160 --> 01:15:14,120
So that's going to make it, I guess we're going to decide like what we're going to

1454
01:15:14,120 --> 01:15:15,760
watch or how we're going to do that, right?

1455
01:15:15,760 --> 01:15:20,120
Because we'll probably cover if they do it week by week, we'll have to cover one episode.

1456
01:15:20,120 --> 01:15:24,920
Did they, does it say how many episodes it's going to be this season?

1457
01:15:24,920 --> 01:15:31,280
I don't, I don't, I'm assuming just like 13, 12, 13, something like that.

1458
01:15:31,280 --> 01:15:36,560
Because that won't go for too long either for, well, no, it'll go for whatever amount

1459
01:15:36,560 --> 01:15:39,600
of episodes we'll cover one episode a week.

1460
01:15:39,600 --> 01:15:41,800
There's a new trailer that I can't watch.

1461
01:15:41,800 --> 01:15:42,800
Yeah.

1462
01:15:42,800 --> 01:15:44,800
Don't look at that.

1463
01:15:44,800 --> 01:15:46,800
This doesn't say how many episodes it's going to be.

1464
01:15:46,800 --> 01:15:51,360
I'm assuming it won't be too crazy, but I'm trying to think if we should just do like

1465
01:15:51,360 --> 01:15:57,600
a little short series as we cover this or do like a long run one because this will run

1466
01:15:57,600 --> 01:15:58,600
out eventually.

1467
01:15:58,600 --> 01:16:00,800
We could do, I feel like we could do two things, right?

1468
01:16:00,800 --> 01:16:04,080
We could either have it every other week where we cover this and then on the off week we

1469
01:16:04,080 --> 01:16:06,600
cover something else.

1470
01:16:06,600 --> 01:16:10,960
We could do like have two segments of the show basically.

1471
01:16:10,960 --> 01:16:11,960
Yeah.

1472
01:16:11,960 --> 01:16:17,360
One episode and then we, you know, we cover two episodes of another show that we're watching

1473
01:16:17,360 --> 01:16:18,360
at the same time.

1474
01:16:18,360 --> 01:16:21,560
I don't, I feel.

1475
01:16:21,560 --> 01:16:25,360
Or we just have like a shorter episodes for this and then like another episode that covers

1476
01:16:25,360 --> 01:16:26,360
another thing.

1477
01:16:26,360 --> 01:16:27,920
Yeah, maybe we'll just do that.

1478
01:16:27,920 --> 01:16:31,520
I don't want them to be in the same episode because some people might only want to listen

1479
01:16:31,520 --> 01:16:35,760
to the coverage of one and then just not want to touch our podcast that they have to dredge

1480
01:16:35,760 --> 01:16:38,240
through content of something they don't.

1481
01:16:38,240 --> 01:16:42,440
In case we start referencing things we mentioned in the first segment and stuff like that.

1482
01:16:42,440 --> 01:16:49,240
Yeah, but I'm also like, I feel like we should, the comparison might actually be useful.

1483
01:16:49,240 --> 01:16:53,080
It's going to be hard for me to like talk about two things and act like I haven't seen

1484
01:16:53,080 --> 01:16:55,720
the other one while I'm watching it.

1485
01:16:55,720 --> 01:16:56,720
You know what I mean?

1486
01:16:56,720 --> 01:16:59,720
Like while I'm watching something is being informed by other things.

1487
01:16:59,720 --> 01:17:02,440
Also, people maybe they don't want to hear it.

1488
01:17:02,440 --> 01:17:03,440
It's spoilers.

1489
01:17:03,440 --> 01:17:05,120
We can put timestamps in it.

1490
01:17:05,120 --> 01:17:06,120
Yeah.

1491
01:17:06,120 --> 01:17:07,120
Yeah, we can.

1492
01:17:07,120 --> 01:17:08,120
Whatever.

1493
01:17:08,120 --> 01:17:09,960
We'll figure it out.

1494
01:17:09,960 --> 01:17:13,120
We've got like two weeks, two, three weeks.

1495
01:17:13,120 --> 01:17:14,120
Two.

1496
01:17:14,120 --> 01:17:17,120
Yeah, we got like two or three weeks.

1497
01:17:17,120 --> 01:17:19,120
Yeah, we'll see.

1498
01:17:19,120 --> 01:17:21,120
All right.

1499
01:17:21,120 --> 01:17:24,120
You want to do the next segment because I got a PD.

1500
01:17:24,120 --> 01:17:25,120
Okay, great.

1501
01:17:25,120 --> 01:17:31,480
Normally I'm like, you do it first because I don't have something picked, but I need

1502
01:17:31,480 --> 01:17:36,120
to step up and think of something right away.

1503
01:17:36,120 --> 01:17:37,120
Okay.

1504
01:17:37,120 --> 01:17:55,720
I'm going to recommend a game called Caller Malice, which originally released on the PSV

1505
01:17:55,720 --> 01:18:01,040
to I believe I've kind of just bought out and every platform has come out on since just

1506
01:18:01,040 --> 01:18:05,720
to make sure they realize that's really good and that we're all for it.

1507
01:18:05,720 --> 01:18:07,800
And there's like a sequel to it now.

1508
01:18:07,800 --> 01:18:11,400
This has become a thing in Oatomy where they just instead of bringing new series, they

1509
01:18:11,400 --> 01:18:16,120
just like add additional stories and charge you like the whole additional gains worth

1510
01:18:16,120 --> 01:18:20,440
for those, which sucks.

1511
01:18:20,440 --> 01:18:28,640
But it's essentially the premise is that you are kind of low ranked police officer in,

1512
01:18:28,640 --> 01:18:32,720
I think it's Shinjuku.

1513
01:18:32,720 --> 01:18:41,560
And basically there's been some acts of terrorism and just this like section of, I don't know,

1514
01:18:41,560 --> 01:18:42,560
Tokyo.

1515
01:18:42,560 --> 01:18:44,280
So it's like quarantine.

1516
01:18:44,280 --> 01:18:50,680
So no one can leave or go from this, this division of the city.

1517
01:18:50,680 --> 01:18:56,520
And so there's been basically it's kind of like a mystery.

1518
01:18:56,520 --> 01:19:05,560
There's the guys, the eligible, datable guys are all former police officers that are now

1519
01:19:05,560 --> 01:19:12,240
working together under the guise of like a detective agency to try to solve different

1520
01:19:12,240 --> 01:19:17,160
aspects of these murders are happening because there's like a countdown.

1521
01:19:17,160 --> 01:19:19,840
Like, you know, there's like a deadline.

1522
01:19:19,840 --> 01:19:25,840
Like by this day, blah, blah, blah, something bad is going to happen.

1523
01:19:25,840 --> 01:19:30,200
And so you kind of your character kind of works with them and depending which aspect

1524
01:19:30,200 --> 01:19:37,360
of this whole, you know, like mystery thing is you'll explore that plot with whichever

1525
01:19:37,360 --> 01:19:42,400
character's personal story is tied with it.

1526
01:19:42,400 --> 01:19:51,680
So man, OK, sometimes I feel like the format of Otome games is typically not all of them

1527
01:19:51,680 --> 01:19:57,560
are available to play the routes of from the start yet to like play kind of what they

1528
01:19:57,560 --> 01:19:59,840
consider the base game characters.

1529
01:19:59,840 --> 01:20:05,840
And then you can unlock other ones after you've played through the first few stories, because

1530
01:20:05,840 --> 01:20:14,280
typically it'll like they save like big revelations in the story until the like last route because

1531
01:20:14,280 --> 01:20:18,720
the plot is like the plot between these different routes you play or connect it because it's

1532
01:20:18,720 --> 01:20:22,240
all based off the same thing, which has become the popular format.

1533
01:20:22,240 --> 01:20:27,520
There used to be or you don't see as often, but things like amnesia.

1534
01:20:27,520 --> 01:20:31,640
It's like you just get to pick your character right off the bat and each one of them has

1535
01:20:31,640 --> 01:20:33,680
a different plot.

1536
01:20:33,680 --> 01:20:38,120
Like the premise of the world is the same, but like how things play out are different.

1537
01:20:38,120 --> 01:20:43,360
So it doesn't matter the order that you play necessarily, which I prefer.

1538
01:20:43,360 --> 01:20:49,800
I rather technically the games that do we have to play through like the prologue and

1539
01:20:49,800 --> 01:20:55,160
this and that and then pick the character and then proceed like allows for more world

1540
01:20:55,160 --> 01:20:57,800
building technically.

1541
01:20:57,800 --> 01:21:04,120
Establishing like your character and stuff, but you have to like dredge through this like

1542
01:21:04,120 --> 01:21:10,200
where you're just basically you're selecting choices that like a lot enough points to the

1543
01:21:10,200 --> 01:21:15,000
person you want to play the route of and then it'll like go that way once you hit a certain

1544
01:21:15,000 --> 01:21:16,000
chapter.

1545
01:21:16,000 --> 01:21:25,760
But it's really good the character you play a girl named Ichiko and she's very cute.

1546
01:21:25,760 --> 01:21:29,920
The guys are super cute.

1547
01:21:29,920 --> 01:21:32,120
Takaru is my favorite.

1548
01:21:32,120 --> 01:21:38,840
I've got acrylic stand of another guy and it's you know, it's like kind of got mystery

1549
01:21:38,840 --> 01:21:47,960
detectivey things and then like the moments of levity and romance in between that.

1550
01:21:47,960 --> 01:21:49,840
So it's really good.

1551
01:21:49,840 --> 01:21:52,240
It's beautiful and it's on switch.

1552
01:21:52,240 --> 01:21:55,520
I think it's on stand maybe now.

1553
01:21:55,520 --> 01:22:03,120
But if you're into dating sims or visual novels, highly recommend caller malice.

1554
01:22:03,120 --> 01:22:06,040
The end your turn, Joe.

1555
01:22:06,040 --> 01:22:11,880
I'm all of a sudden so I was looking at like the announcements for Kimi to do a season

1556
01:22:11,880 --> 01:22:16,680
for it's listing all the voice actors and it's like these are the other people they're

1557
01:22:16,680 --> 01:22:22,200
like voice actors of and I'm losing my shit because the guy who plays Kazehair voice

1558
01:22:22,200 --> 01:22:31,880
X Kazehair Daisuke Namikawa is the voice of his soka in hunter hunter and like kid in

1559
01:22:31,880 --> 01:22:36,400
one piece and holenheim and full alchemist is crazy.

1560
01:22:36,400 --> 01:22:42,600
We should do a segment on that at like the end of like here's like the voice actors.

1561
01:22:42,600 --> 01:22:47,000
Here's like all the stuff they're in recognize them from.

1562
01:22:47,000 --> 01:22:48,000
Wild.

1563
01:22:48,000 --> 01:22:57,760
Yeah, I mean, I haven't gotten to the point of picking up like different Japanese voice

1564
01:22:57,760 --> 01:23:03,160
actors and telling the difference between them versus like if I'm watching a dub, I

1565
01:23:03,160 --> 01:23:08,160
can be like, oh, I've heard this voice before and typically I can recall what it's from,

1566
01:23:08,160 --> 01:23:12,200
but not the case with sub actors.

1567
01:23:12,200 --> 01:23:16,040
We should do that at the beginning of seasons of shows.

1568
01:23:16,040 --> 01:23:17,320
I'm like, we can do it at the end.

1569
01:23:17,320 --> 01:23:18,480
We'll do it at the end here.

1570
01:23:18,480 --> 01:23:26,040
Yeah, no directors commentary for the guy who directed this also directed great pretender,

1571
01:23:26,040 --> 01:23:28,240
which is a show I like a lot.

1572
01:23:28,240 --> 01:23:32,040
Anyway, the thing I'm going to recommend I watched another movie that I didn't talk about

1573
01:23:32,040 --> 01:23:35,120
in the first segment this week is I watch a bunch of movies.

1574
01:23:35,120 --> 01:23:40,040
Now I guess I watched Puss and Boots the Last Wish.

1575
01:23:40,040 --> 01:23:42,440
I don't think so.

1576
01:23:42,440 --> 01:23:47,000
No, you definitely haven't.

1577
01:23:47,000 --> 01:23:55,000
This is a movie that came out in 2022 and is not related.

1578
01:23:55,000 --> 01:23:57,240
So Shrek 5 is going to come out at some point, right?

1579
01:23:57,240 --> 01:23:58,240
Yeah, I saw that.

1580
01:23:58,240 --> 01:23:59,240
Yeah.

1581
01:23:59,240 --> 01:24:02,960
And I don't know if that's going to be good or not, but if it's anything like this movie,

1582
01:24:02,960 --> 01:24:08,280
it might be incredible because Puss and Boots the Last Wish is like a super good movie.

1583
01:24:08,280 --> 01:24:10,800
It's so good.

1584
01:24:10,800 --> 01:24:18,360
It has, you know, clearly the animation style has been influenced by into the spider-verse

1585
01:24:18,360 --> 01:24:19,520
as a lot of things happen.

1586
01:24:19,520 --> 01:24:23,720
You know, I recommended or I talked about Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles last time, I

1587
01:24:23,720 --> 01:24:26,640
think, or maybe the time before that.

1588
01:24:26,640 --> 01:24:32,440
But they do that same thing where like certain characters and like movements will skip certain

1589
01:24:32,440 --> 01:24:36,120
frames and it'll give it this like really stylized sequence, especially during action

1590
01:24:36,120 --> 01:24:38,840
scenes and it looks really good.

1591
01:24:38,840 --> 01:24:40,560
The writing is really fun.

1592
01:24:40,560 --> 01:24:42,800
They introduce a bunch of characters that are like really good.

1593
01:24:42,800 --> 01:24:48,440
You know, the thing that Shrek did well is they take all these like fairy tale characters

1594
01:24:48,440 --> 01:24:50,440
and make funny little spins on them.

1595
01:24:50,440 --> 01:24:51,680
This one does a good job of it.

1596
01:24:51,680 --> 01:24:55,000
You know, like some of the later Shrek's not that good.

1597
01:24:55,000 --> 01:24:58,280
This is like actually very good.

1598
01:24:58,280 --> 01:25:02,360
You don't need to watch this like a different Puss and Boots movie 2011.

1599
01:25:02,360 --> 01:25:03,480
You do not need to watch that.

1600
01:25:03,480 --> 01:25:04,760
I have not seen it.

1601
01:25:04,760 --> 01:25:07,600
Apparently it was not that great.

1602
01:25:07,600 --> 01:25:09,480
You know, so you do not need to watch anything.

1603
01:25:09,480 --> 01:25:11,880
You could just watch this one straight up because you know who the character is.

1604
01:25:11,880 --> 01:25:14,800
And that's pretty much all that matters.

1605
01:25:14,800 --> 01:25:22,080
What themes about like the specter of death when you get along in age because you know,

1606
01:25:22,080 --> 01:25:26,160
the whole thing is that the whole the whole impetus of the movie is that, you know, Puss

1607
01:25:26,160 --> 01:25:30,080
and Boots is an outlaw and does all this other stuff and he is a cat.

1608
01:25:30,080 --> 01:25:33,560
So he has nine lives and at this point he has lost eight of them.

1609
01:25:33,560 --> 01:25:36,640
So he's down to his last life.

1610
01:25:36,640 --> 01:25:41,600
And so he's going to try to pursue a magical wishing star which can grant him or grant

1611
01:25:41,600 --> 01:25:45,680
anybody a wish and he's going to try to wish for his lives back.

1612
01:25:45,680 --> 01:25:47,760
Not more than he had before.

1613
01:25:47,760 --> 01:25:48,760
Not more.

1614
01:25:48,760 --> 01:25:49,760
Nope.

1615
01:25:49,760 --> 01:25:54,560
He's going to he's going to soft reset himself.

1616
01:25:54,560 --> 01:25:56,840
And Collette and you know, in high jinks and soothes.

1617
01:25:56,840 --> 01:25:57,840
It's good.

1618
01:25:57,840 --> 01:25:58,840
I like it a lot.

1619
01:25:58,840 --> 01:26:00,520
It's like a lot of really good action sequences.

1620
01:26:00,520 --> 01:26:04,280
A lot of really good comedy bits.

1621
01:26:04,280 --> 01:26:06,960
Antonio Bander is still voice acting him.

1622
01:26:06,960 --> 01:26:07,960
Yes.

1623
01:26:07,960 --> 01:26:10,160
Antonio Bander is still voice acting Puss and Boots.

1624
01:26:10,160 --> 01:26:11,160
He does a really good job.

1625
01:26:11,160 --> 01:26:12,160
I like him a lot.

1626
01:26:12,160 --> 01:26:13,160
It's very funny.

1627
01:26:13,160 --> 01:26:21,800
I watching Zoro as a child heavily influenced my preferences as a teenager, I think he

1628
01:26:21,800 --> 01:26:24,120
was hot in those movies.

1629
01:26:24,120 --> 01:26:26,120
He was hot in those movies.

1630
01:26:26,120 --> 01:26:27,120
Yes.

1631
01:26:27,120 --> 01:26:28,120
He's very funny in this.

1632
01:26:28,120 --> 01:26:29,600
He does a really good job.

1633
01:26:29,600 --> 01:26:30,600
Cool.

1634
01:26:30,600 --> 01:26:31,600
Yeah.

1635
01:26:31,600 --> 01:26:32,600
This movie is great.

1636
01:26:32,600 --> 01:26:33,600
Okay.

1637
01:26:33,600 --> 01:26:37,600
That's our first non-animate animated movie we've recommended.

1638
01:26:37,600 --> 01:26:38,600
Is that true?

1639
01:26:38,600 --> 01:26:40,600
Have I not recommended other ones?

1640
01:26:40,600 --> 01:26:41,600
I don't think so.

1641
01:26:41,600 --> 01:26:42,600
Did I recommend TMNT?

1642
01:26:42,600 --> 01:26:43,600
I don't think I did.

1643
01:26:43,600 --> 01:26:45,600
I think I just talked about it.

1644
01:26:45,600 --> 01:26:46,600
No, you're.

1645
01:26:46,600 --> 01:26:47,600
Wait.

1646
01:26:47,600 --> 01:26:52,080
No, I think you just talked about it in the episode with Jenny.

1647
01:26:52,080 --> 01:26:53,600
I think that was like what you had.

1648
01:26:53,600 --> 01:26:54,600
Oh, yeah.

1649
01:26:54,600 --> 01:26:55,600
Okay.

1650
01:26:55,600 --> 01:26:56,600
I don't know.

1651
01:26:56,600 --> 01:26:58,600
No, just kidding.

1652
01:26:58,600 --> 01:27:03,600
You've recommended the Star Wars one before Rebels or whatever.

1653
01:27:03,600 --> 01:27:04,600
Oh, Rebels.

1654
01:27:04,600 --> 01:27:05,600
Yeah.

1655
01:27:05,600 --> 01:27:06,600
Rebels.

1656
01:27:06,600 --> 01:27:07,600
Still good.

1657
01:27:07,600 --> 01:27:08,600
I'm on season three of that.

1658
01:27:08,600 --> 01:27:09,600
How many episodes a season?

1659
01:27:09,600 --> 01:27:11,600
I don't think there's that many.

1660
01:27:11,600 --> 01:27:15,600
I think there are like 12 or so.

1661
01:27:15,600 --> 01:27:17,600
You're watching this other people weekly.

1662
01:27:17,600 --> 01:27:18,600
I take it.

1663
01:27:18,600 --> 01:27:19,600
Yeah.

1664
01:27:19,600 --> 01:27:20,600
I'm watching it with a podcast.

1665
01:27:20,600 --> 01:27:21,600
Okay.

1666
01:27:21,600 --> 01:27:25,600
But they're like really unlike the other podcasts I've listened to that have like I'm like five

1667
01:27:25,600 --> 01:27:27,600
years behind this one is.

1668
01:27:27,600 --> 01:27:28,600
Okay.

1669
01:27:28,600 --> 01:27:30,600
So I actually have to wait two weeks.

1670
01:27:30,600 --> 01:27:31,600
No.

1671
01:27:31,600 --> 01:27:33,600
I was at three has 22 episodes.

1672
01:27:33,600 --> 01:27:34,600
Oh man.

1673
01:27:34,600 --> 01:27:35,600
Okay.

1674
01:27:35,600 --> 01:27:37,600
And they're what like 20 minutes long.

1675
01:27:37,600 --> 01:27:39,600
Yeah.

1676
01:27:39,600 --> 01:27:41,600
They're like a standard 30 minute time slot.

1677
01:27:41,600 --> 01:27:43,600
So they end up being like 22 minutes or so.

1678
01:27:43,600 --> 01:27:44,600
Yeah.

1679
01:27:44,600 --> 01:27:45,600
Okay.

1680
01:27:45,600 --> 01:27:46,600
Nice.

1681
01:27:46,600 --> 01:27:47,600
Yeah.

1682
01:27:47,600 --> 01:27:48,600
It's been good.

1683
01:27:48,600 --> 01:27:49,600
Good.

1684
01:27:49,600 --> 01:27:51,600
This is again a good way to watch stuff.

1685
01:27:51,600 --> 01:27:55,600
I think this is the optimal way to watch things because I can't binge stuff or otherwise

1686
01:27:55,600 --> 01:27:56,600
I'll forget it.

1687
01:27:56,600 --> 01:27:57,600
Okay.

1688
01:27:57,600 --> 01:28:02,600
Now that we've given you the gift of our fabulous opinions and recommendations, it's time for

1689
01:28:02,600 --> 01:28:06,600
you to return the favor by gifting us.

1690
01:28:06,600 --> 01:28:10,600
With your reviews and ratings.

1691
01:28:10,600 --> 01:28:11,600
Yeah.

1692
01:28:11,600 --> 01:28:15,600
I feel bad for talking over it.

1693
01:28:15,600 --> 01:28:16,600
Yeah.

1694
01:28:16,600 --> 01:28:17,600
I'm going to cut that.

1695
01:28:17,600 --> 01:28:21,600
Trying to undermine my my transition.

1696
01:28:21,600 --> 01:28:22,600
Uh huh.

1697
01:28:22,600 --> 01:28:26,600
Take it away.

1698
01:28:26,600 --> 01:28:31,600
Dude, the voice actress for cheese you is the voice actress for Boreto.

1699
01:28:31,600 --> 01:28:33,600
Oh dear.

1700
01:28:33,600 --> 01:28:35,600
Anyway.

1701
01:28:35,600 --> 01:28:36,600
Yeah.

1702
01:28:36,600 --> 01:28:40,600
Rate us five stars and all the things on whatever you're listening to right now, go to the

1703
01:28:40,600 --> 01:28:44,600
go to the fucking part where you can rate it and throw down five stars and then leave

1704
01:28:44,600 --> 01:28:48,600
a comment if you're on Apple podcasts or if you're on Spotify, maybe there's like a little

1705
01:28:48,600 --> 01:28:49,600
question you can answer.

1706
01:28:49,600 --> 01:28:50,600
Answer that question.

1707
01:28:50,600 --> 01:28:51,600
Do it.

1708
01:28:51,600 --> 01:28:52,600
Do it right now.

1709
01:28:52,600 --> 01:28:54,600
Pause the episode and go do it.

1710
01:28:54,600 --> 01:28:55,600
Yeah.

1711
01:28:55,600 --> 01:28:56,600
I think Spotify just updated.

1712
01:28:56,600 --> 01:29:00,600
So instead of just having to answer a question, I think you can just straight up leave comments

1713
01:29:00,600 --> 01:29:01,600
on episodes.

1714
01:29:01,600 --> 01:29:02,600
Okay.

1715
01:29:02,600 --> 01:29:03,600
Perfect.

1716
01:29:03,600 --> 01:29:04,600
I saw that.

1717
01:29:04,600 --> 01:29:05,600
So yeah.

1718
01:29:05,600 --> 01:29:06,600
Yeah.

1719
01:29:06,600 --> 01:29:07,600
So do that.

1720
01:29:07,600 --> 01:29:09,600
Do that stuff that helps us out.

1721
01:29:09,600 --> 01:29:14,600
Um, you know, season three of community to know case almost upon us.

1722
01:29:14,600 --> 01:29:21,600
So if you know somebody who's going to watch that, you should recommend us to them that

1723
01:29:21,600 --> 01:29:26,100
they can also listen along and you guys can, you know, talk about the episode along with

1724
01:29:26,100 --> 01:29:27,600
the stuff we talked about here.

1725
01:29:27,600 --> 01:29:32,200
You want to talk with us about the episodes, you can send us an email at show Joe pod at

1726
01:29:32,200 --> 01:29:34,200
gmail.com.

1727
01:29:34,200 --> 01:29:36,200
Or DM us on Instagram.

1728
01:29:36,200 --> 01:29:38,200
Yeah, or DM the account.

1729
01:29:38,200 --> 01:29:39,200
Yep.

1730
01:29:39,200 --> 01:29:40,200
Uh, yeah.

1731
01:29:40,200 --> 01:29:44,320
So I remember everybody, even if you listen, even if you metal incorrectly, sometimes that's

1732
01:29:44,320 --> 01:29:47,440
better than not doing anything and letting things just stagnate forever.

1733
01:29:47,440 --> 01:29:51,200
It's easier to ask for forgiveness than for permission.

1734
01:29:51,200 --> 01:29:52,200
True.

1735
01:29:52,200 --> 01:29:54,200
That is so good.

1736
01:29:54,200 --> 01:29:58,200
I kept asking for permission and cause I was like, no, and then she didn't do it.

1737
01:29:58,200 --> 01:29:59,200
You shouldn't do anything.

1738
01:29:59,200 --> 01:30:00,200
That's true.

1739
01:30:00,200 --> 01:30:01,200
Yep.

1740
01:30:01,200 --> 01:30:02,200
She didn't help them at all.

1741
01:30:02,200 --> 01:30:06,200
She didn't hurt everything but your own wins.

1742
01:30:06,200 --> 01:30:10,200
Just don't consider other people at all.

1743
01:30:10,200 --> 01:30:11,200
That's what I do.

1744
01:30:11,200 --> 01:30:13,200
Just start doing your own shit.

1745
01:30:13,200 --> 01:30:14,200
Yeah.

1746
01:30:14,200 --> 01:30:15,200
It'll work out.

1747
01:30:15,200 --> 01:30:19,200
All of the people can bond over how wrong you are and that'll get that closer to each other.

1748
01:30:19,200 --> 01:30:20,200
That's right.

1749
01:30:20,200 --> 01:30:25,200
When you get another animal and then, you know, your family behind you is being like,

1750
01:30:25,200 --> 01:30:28,200
God, can you please say I got another dog?

1751
01:30:28,200 --> 01:30:33,200
She has no self-control blah, blah, blah, yada, yada, yada.

1752
01:30:33,200 --> 01:30:36,200
Can you believe it?

1753
01:30:36,200 --> 01:30:37,200
They're saying it.

1754
01:30:37,200 --> 01:30:38,200
I know.

1755
01:30:38,200 --> 01:30:40,200
I just know it.

1756
01:30:40,200 --> 01:30:42,200
I know they're talking shit about me.

1757
01:30:42,200 --> 01:30:47,200
But I don't care because I wanted another dog and I can take care of her.

1758
01:30:47,200 --> 01:30:48,200
So, suck it.

1759
01:30:48,200 --> 01:30:50,200
On that note, bye.

1760
01:30:50,200 --> 01:31:07,200
Bye.
