1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:20,880
Here we are again, watching Kiwi Nii Tadoke season two and things are slightly starting

2
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:22,360
to pick up.

3
00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:23,360
Thankfully.

4
00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:31,760
I'm your host Sarah joined by the wonderful Joe of Joe Joe.

5
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:35,200
The one and only Joe Joe Joe.

6
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:38,160
Yeah, not the Joe of Kiwi Nii Tadoke.

7
00:00:38,160 --> 00:00:39,160
Hate that guy.

8
00:00:39,160 --> 00:00:42,160
It sounds like you're like the king of France.

9
00:00:42,160 --> 00:00:44,720
It has to be somebody.

10
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:48,040
Hey, your big deal.

11
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:50,040
Yeah.

12
00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:52,040
Yeah.

13
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:55,920
It feels like a different show kind of.

14
00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:58,200
Yeah, it's freaking depressing.

15
00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:00,840
Whereas the first one is like, oh.

16
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:09,120
Um, but yeah, before we jump into our coverage of that, we'll kind of just catch up.

17
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:15,000
Joe, what have you been up to in the last week since our last episode?

18
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:18,080
I went to an anime convention yesterday.

19
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:20,120
It's like an anime convention ever.

20
00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:21,120
Really?

21
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:22,120
Yeah, it was pretty good.

22
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:23,120
Yeah, I don't know.

23
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:24,120
Oh my God.

24
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:27,120
I mean, I go to academic conventions with those.

25
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:29,120
No, I imagine not.

26
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:30,640
I was dressing up.

27
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:32,120
Yeah, so it was good.

28
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:33,120
Um, DCME.

29
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:37,120
Going to Booth's favorite cosplays.

30
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:40,120
Uh, yeah, I mean, there's some good stuff.

31
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,120
A lot of warhammer people dressed up as warhammer.

32
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:44,120
Okay.

33
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,120
That was a pretty involved.

34
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,120
It's like it's weird to see what's popular.

35
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:49,120
I know.

36
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:53,120
I went, it was all Genshin Impact.

37
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:54,120
Oh my God.

38
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:55,120
Or something.

39
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:56,120
Yeah.

40
00:01:56,120 --> 00:02:00,120
Here it's like just kind of, it's like not that it hasn't really cohered to like any

41
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:01,120
one specific thing.

42
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:05,120
I mean, it's just like the popular stuff that's kind of been popular for a while.

43
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:06,120
Yeah.

44
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:09,120
Noticing one stand out where I'm like, oh, this is the year of whatever.

45
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:10,120
Oh yeah.

46
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:13,120
I've definitely been where it's like, this is the year of Nezuko from Demon's

47
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:14,120
Player everywhere.

48
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:15,120
Oh yeah.

49
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:16,120
Um.

50
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:20,120
Yeah, no, no, like complete stand up.

51
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:25,120
Yeah, it was good, you know, the, the, when some boots saw some stuff.

52
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,120
It was pretty good.

53
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:28,120
Nice to buy anything.

54
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,120
Like plan out which day we'd go on.

55
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,120
So it's just like, we just kind of went on a day.

56
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:33,120
Yeah.

57
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:36,120
So it's like, we didn't really like go to any of the like meeting things or like

58
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:37,120
the presentation.

59
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:38,120
The panels.

60
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:39,120
Yeah.

61
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:40,120
Yeah.

62
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:41,120
The panels.

63
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,120
Not, not super interested in that, but you know, it's still, still fun to go.

64
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:44,120
I just go for the shopping.

65
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,120
I don't know.

66
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:47,120
Yeah.

67
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:48,120
Yeah.

68
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:49,120
And you cosplayed.

69
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:50,120
I did.

70
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:51,120
Yeah.

71
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,120
Well, I just wore the impel down buggy thing I had before, you know,

72
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:54,120
low effort.

73
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:56,120
Apparently there was one other infill down buggy.

74
00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:57,120
I saw that was running a movie.

75
00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:58,120
That was pretty funny.

76
00:02:58,120 --> 00:02:59,120
Nice. Nice.

77
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:00,120
Um.

78
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:01,120
That was good.

79
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:02,120
But yeah.

80
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:03,120
And then what else did I do?

81
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:04,120
I watched.

82
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:05,120
Hmm.

83
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,120
Did I, I didn't talk about, no, I talked about this last week, right?

84
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,120
That I watched both ghost and Michelle movies.

85
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:10,120
Yep.

86
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:11,120
Okay.

87
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:13,120
I am.

88
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,120
I'm not done with the secret blacksmith yet.

89
00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:16,120
One more episode.

90
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,120
I haven't watched.

91
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:21,120
You just don't want it to be over.

92
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:24,120
I just don't want it to be over.

93
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:28,120
I just liked it because the Luke I think.

94
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:29,120
Yeah.

95
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:33,120
I mean, it's, it's like, I'm on the last episode.

96
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:34,120
He seems better.

97
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:36,120
He, I like him more now that I knew at the beginning.

98
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:37,120
He's just hot.

99
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,120
He's just a brat.

100
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,120
Um, his little like.

101
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:43,120
Minion.

102
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,120
Flunky sister apprentice.

103
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,120
Um, apprentice has a, her dumb hat.

104
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:48,120
So great.

105
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,120
The hat has made a reappearance.

106
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:51,120
Nice.

107
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:52,120
Yeah.

108
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:53,120
Otherwise.

109
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:54,120
Yeah.

110
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:55,120
I've watched anything else really.

111
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:56,120
Oh, I did.

112
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:57,120
I watched housing complex C.

113
00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:58,120
Oh yeah.

114
00:03:58,120 --> 00:03:59,120
What is that?

115
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:01,120
Short.

116
00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:03,120
Four episode.

117
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:04,120
Let me look it up.

118
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,120
It was like a horror thing.

119
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:07,120
Oh God.

120
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:11,120
I remember it like being part of adult swim.

121
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:12,120
Oh,

122
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:13,120
to Nami block.

123
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,120
And I think maybe they helped with the production of it.

124
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:16,120
Um, yeah.

125
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:17,120
Yeah.

126
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:18,120
Production.

127
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:19,120
I G did the,

128
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:20,120
did the animation for it.

129
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:21,120
Um,

130
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,120
apparently it only aired on.

131
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:24,120
To Nami.

132
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:25,120
Oh,

133
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:26,120
interesting.

134
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:27,120
But horror.

135
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:30,120
I'll advise run of the series in Japan itself currently remains

136
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:31,120
a question.

137
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,120
So that's kind of interesting.

138
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:34,120
Yeah.

139
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:35,120
It was like a,

140
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:36,120
it was kind of like a horror thing.

141
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:37,120
It aired in October.

142
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,120
So it was supposed to be like a little spooky thing.

143
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:40,120
It was.

144
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,120
Not rated though.

145
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:43,120
Yeah.

146
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:44,120
It's like a,

147
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:45,120
it's like a five out of 10.

148
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:47,120
It's like a fun little short story kind of thing.

149
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:48,120
I guess.

150
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:49,120
Um,

151
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:50,120
Yeah.

152
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,120
I didn't really like captivate.

153
00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:53,120
You know,

154
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:55,120
it wasn't really like that astounding or that wowing or that kind of thing.

155
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:56,120
But you know,

156
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:57,120
it's like a fun little thing.

157
00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:58,120
It's short.

158
00:04:58,120 --> 00:04:59,120
It's four episodes.

159
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,120
You could just watch it in like an hour and a half.

160
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:02,120
You know what I mean?

161
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:03,120
So it's like kind of hard for me to be like,

162
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:04,120
Oh,

163
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:05,120
this isn't worth your time because it's such a little time.

164
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:06,120
It's like,

165
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:07,120
it's like a little bit of a fun little thing.

166
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:08,120
Yeah.

167
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:09,120
That's true.

168
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,120
But you know, it's, it's like whatever.

169
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:12,120
That's all right.

170
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:13,120
Nice. Nice.

171
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:14,120
Um,

172
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:15,120
Yeah.

173
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:16,120
Did that.

174
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:19,120
I'll be going to an anime convention later today.

175
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,120
Wearing the first ever show Joe.

176
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:22,120
Apparel item.

177
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:23,120
That's right.

178
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:24,120
Uh, so hopefully.

179
00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:27,120
All the folks are going to be like, you know,

180
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:28,120
what's that all about?

181
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:31,120
And I'll be like, Oh, let me whip out this QR code.

182
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,120
And you can find out.

183
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,120
Um, I'm coming prepared.

184
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,120
I ain't messing around.

185
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:41,120
And then I'm going to like demolish my bank account by just buying

186
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:43,120
everything that I want.

187
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:47,120
Cause I have way more poster space now in my new place.

188
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,120
Um, yeah.

189
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,120
So let's see.

190
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:52,120
Oh wait, hold on.

191
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:53,120
I need to.

192
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:54,120
Sorry.

193
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:56,120
This is the thing I watched housing complex.

194
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,120
So he was by studio.

195
00:05:58,120 --> 00:05:59,120
A Kotz ski.

196
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:00,120
Okay.

197
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,120
And it was the dub was done by production.

198
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:04,120
I G.

199
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:06,120
You said good.

200
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:09,120
People were going to be upset if you did not.

201
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,120
We live in a time when, uh,

202
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:15,120
industries hate things that are creative at all.

203
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:19,120
So I feel like taking the time to properly credit things should be

204
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:20,120
important.

205
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:21,120
Okay. Yeah.

206
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:22,120
That's true.

207
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:23,120
Um,

208
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:24,120
Especially because it's freaking.

209
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:25,120
God.

210
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:28,120
All of like us animation is just like.

211
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:31,120
Gone to hell because everything's being gutted.

212
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:32,120
Have you seen that?

213
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:34,120
There's like mass layoffs and stuff.

214
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:35,120
Oh,

215
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:36,120
isn't that just everything?

216
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:38,120
It does feel like it's everything.

217
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:39,120
Yeah.

218
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,120
Everything we love at least game industry,

219
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:43,120
anime industry.

220
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:44,120
Yeah.

221
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:45,120
Everything that like makes life fun.

222
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:46,120
Yeah.

223
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:47,120
It's like,

224
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:48,120
what if, um,

225
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,120
venture capital destroyed it for no reason?

226
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:51,120
Cool.

227
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,120
Good world we live in.

228
00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:54,120
Yeah.

229
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:55,120
Oh man.

230
00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:57,120
Anyway.

231
00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:59,120
Anyways, let's see.

232
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:02,120
So I'll be doing that later today.

233
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:03,120
I've had,

234
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:04,120
I was going to go alone,

235
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:07,120
but I've got a co-workers joining me.

236
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:10,120
So that'll be fun because it'll be both of theirs first,

237
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:11,120
I think,

238
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:12,120
and my convention.

239
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:13,120
Um,

240
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:14,120
Let's see.

241
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,120
I.

242
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:20,120
So it's been the second week that I've had my new dog,

243
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:21,120
lemon.

244
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,120
And she's doing.

245
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:24,120
Really good.

246
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:27,120
Getting along with everyone.

247
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:28,120
Uh,

248
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:31,120
even took her to my mom's place and she got along with all the

249
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:32,120
dogs there.

250
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,120
And, um,

251
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:37,120
so I'm really excited that it seems like she's going to work out.

252
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,120
And, um, yeah.

253
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:43,120
So there hasn't been any issues other than the first jail break,

254
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:44,120
but.

255
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:45,120
Um,

256
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:47,120
So yeah, happy about that.

257
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:49,120
Uh, let's see.

258
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:52,120
We've got Wallace and grommet coming to walk about me golf next,

259
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:54,120
or I guess this coming Thursday,

260
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,120
the 25th of July.

261
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,120
So excited for that.

262
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,120
Um,

263
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:01,120
Oh, okay.

264
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:02,120
You, you saw this.

265
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,120
I, I.

266
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,120
Now that I'm settled in my new place,

267
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:08,120
I want to get back to streaming on Twitch some more.

268
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,120
And I was playing a new game.

269
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:11,120
Night in the woods.

270
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:12,120
And, um,

271
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:15,120
I haven't played it since the first stream because I think I want

272
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,120
to do it on stream just so I can have other people witness this

273
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:19,120
game.

274
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:22,120
With me.

275
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:23,120
Um,

276
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,120
Cause I just, I was like, Oh, it looks like a.

277
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,120
You know, cute, but maybe.

278
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:29,120
Eerie game,

279
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,120
but I'm learning.

280
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:32,120
A lot.

281
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:36,120
There's a lot darker, like emotional psychological themes to it.

282
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:37,120
And I,

283
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,120
only at the beginning I take it.

284
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:41,120
So I got to buckle up for.

285
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,120
Some trauma and stuff.

286
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:44,120
That's going to be revealed.

287
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:45,120
I feel like.

288
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:49,120
That game is really cool.

289
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:51,120
I thought that game like a long time ago.

290
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:52,120
Yeah.

291
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:54,120
It's, I love the art style.

292
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:55,120
It's so cute.

293
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:56,120
Replay it.

294
00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:57,120
Yeah.

295
00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,120
It's giving.

296
00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:02,120
It kind of reminds me of oxen free.

297
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:05,120
With like the speech bubbles and kind of the.

298
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:06,120
To do.

299
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:07,120
Art and stuff.

300
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:08,120
Um,

301
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,120
Which I also need to finish playing.

302
00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:12,120
Cause the second one came out, I think.

303
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:13,120
Um,

304
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:15,120
but yeah, I really enjoyed that.

305
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:16,120
Uh,

306
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:19,120
Love Island USA coming to an end this.

307
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:20,120
Today.

308
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:22,120
So I am sad about that.

309
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:25,120
But luckily big brother has started.

310
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:28,120
So at least I have some trash to.

311
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:29,120
Satiate.

312
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:30,120
My mead.

313
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,120
For mindless television.

314
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:33,120
Um,

315
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,120
I got something to do.

316
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:36,120
Yeah.

317
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:37,120
Uh, I think.

318
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:38,120
That's good.

319
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:39,120
That's probably watching.

320
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:40,120
You guys are.

321
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:43,120
Yeah.

322
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:44,120
Yeah.

323
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:45,120
I think that's good.

324
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:46,120
That's probably watching.

325
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:47,120
You gun to.

326
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:48,120
Honestly.

327
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:49,120
Yeah.

328
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:51,120
Is it a bump?

329
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:52,120
Rough ride over there.

330
00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:53,120
It's, you know,

331
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:54,120
G Gundam.

332
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:57,120
The premise is that there's a big, there's a big war.

333
00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:58,120
No, there's a big war.

334
00:09:58,120 --> 00:09:59,120
There's a big battle.

335
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:00,120
Gundam battle.

336
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,120
Where it's like a tournament style thing in every country.

337
00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:03,120
Cause it's own mech.

338
00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:04,120
And, um,

339
00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:05,120
You know,

340
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:06,120
It's made in the nineties.

341
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,120
Not exactly the most racially sensitive.

342
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,120
But it's a little bit more.

343
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:11,120
It's like,

344
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:12,120
You know,

345
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:13,120
It's like a.

346
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:14,120
It's like a.

347
00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:15,120
It's like a.

348
00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:16,120
It's like a.

349
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:17,120
It's like a.

350
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,120
So yeah, you know, and it's also just kind of like,

351
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,120
It doesn't need to be 50 episodes, but it is 50 episodes or 49 or

352
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:23,120
whatever.

353
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:24,120
And boy.

354
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:25,120
It does not need to be.

355
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:26,120
But it's fine.

356
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:27,120
Okay.

357
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:28,120
Um,

358
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:29,120
Let's see.

359
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:30,120
And then, you know,

360
00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:31,120
I have another.

361
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:32,120
And we can mention next week.

362
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:33,120
I'll go to that.

363
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:34,120
Oh wow.

364
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:35,120
Yeah.

365
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:36,120
So.

366
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,120
Yeah.

367
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:39,120
I think I like that.

368
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:40,120
I love that.

369
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:41,120
It's kind of the same.

370
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,120
There's a little person who plays it.

371
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,120
She's kind of a little hermit like me.

372
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:48,120
That's so hard for me to believe.

373
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:49,120
Well, like.

374
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:50,120
I like.

375
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:51,120
In now way.

376
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:52,120
Yes.

377
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:54,120
But she's, she plays.

378
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:56,120
She's like a little gamer.

379
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:57,120
She has.

380
00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:00,120
She really like how to train your dragon.

381
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,120
And so she's found this like.

382
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:07,920
dragons and all this and she'll play from her computer.

383
00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:12,380
And then if my brother is not using his, she'll log into a secondary account and

384
00:11:12,380 --> 00:11:18,560
just play the game with herself with like two computers right next to each other.

385
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,120
Oh, wild.

386
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:23,040
I'm like, just gaming real hard.

387
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:23,920
Yes.

388
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:25,780
God dang girl.

389
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:31,100
Um, so hopefully, so she's, I don't know.

390
00:11:31,100 --> 00:11:35,120
I feel like all my siblings are like not that interested in the world around them as

391
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:40,600
much as just like the comfort of being in a familiar space and doing, playing the

392
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:42,000
same crappy games.

393
00:11:42,680 --> 00:11:49,480
Um, so I'm hoping she thinks this is cool and that she can kind of get into it.

394
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:51,000
Um, we'll see.

395
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:52,040
Uh, yeah.

396
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:55,280
So that's all we've been up to.

397
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:55,560
Yeah.

398
00:11:55,560 --> 00:11:57,280
The scorching heat and the scorching summer.

399
00:11:57,400 --> 00:11:57,840
God.

400
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:01,520
I, it's, it's terrible to think that because of climate change, it's going to

401
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:02,280
be worse every year.

402
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:04,600
This is the coolest summer we're ever going to have.

403
00:12:04,680 --> 00:12:06,480
Don't say that to me.

404
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:11,040
Uh, uh, man.

405
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,080
I hope you enjoyed the coolest summer for the rest of your life.

406
00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:15,600
Don't.

407
00:12:16,560 --> 00:12:18,880
Oh, it's okay.

408
00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:20,320
I'm sure there'll be some anomaly.

409
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,840
Um, oh my God.

410
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:25,680
Cause it's really bringing it down.

411
00:12:25,680 --> 00:12:30,680
I get so angry when I'm outside.

412
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:35,040
Like I had to go to my sister's engagement party and I like was dressed up and

413
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:38,520
wearing makeup and I was like just angry because I was like, this son better

414
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:39,960
not fuck up my makeup.

415
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:41,960
I'm going to be so pissed and this and that.

416
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:45,280
And like, it's awful.

417
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:45,760
Yeah.

418
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:47,280
Rough.

419
00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:52,920
It's like, I can't like I'm not like half of my soul is in slumber until

420
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:55,600
winter comes out and then I can fully be happy.

421
00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:59,840
I like can't half of my soul is in slumber.

422
00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:01,960
My hibernating.

423
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:03,200
Good vibes.

424
00:13:03,560 --> 00:13:04,520
Yes.

425
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,080
I hate the summer so much.

426
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:10,720
So look, I got it.

427
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,840
Now I'm thinking about how mad I am that it's hot outside.

428
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:16,200
I've done it.

429
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:17,480
I've showered the mood.

430
00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:21,360
Well, speaking of sourd moods.

431
00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:22,080
Sssh.

432
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:22,880
Or.

433
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:24,520
It's in you.

434
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:25,400
Yeah.

435
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:31,360
I mean, it's getting.

436
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:35,280
Things are happening at least by the end of the batch of episodes.

437
00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:36,320
Oh my God.

438
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:38,880
Finally, near the end of the season nails.

439
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:39,280
Pays.

440
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:39,760
I cannot.

441
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:41,120
What happened to my season one?

442
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:41,960
Kimi, it's an OK.

443
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:42,560
What happened?

444
00:13:42,560 --> 00:13:44,120
Look what they did to my beautiful boy.

445
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:48,400
Dear God.

446
00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:49,200
Anxed.

447
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:50,920
Adolescent angst.

448
00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:51,920
It's not even.

449
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:53,600
It's not even early.

450
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:55,160
I don't even know what it is.

451
00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:57,920
It's I don't know.

452
00:13:58,560 --> 00:13:59,120
I just.

453
00:13:59,120 --> 00:13:59,760
You know.

454
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:02,360
They just don't.

455
00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:03,640
They had nothing in the tank.

456
00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:05,800
I'm just they had nothing in the tank for the season.

457
00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:10,840
I read the manga so I can see if it's if this is what's happening in the manga or not.

458
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:14,320
Or at least it's probably a dress much quicker in the manga.

459
00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:16,920
I had like a horror moment at the end of this.

460
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,320
And then this three episodes.

461
00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:20,160
Dear.

462
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:22,280
But let's just go through.

463
00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:24,120
OK, OK, let's see.

464
00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:26,600
Episode whatever.

465
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:30,840
Episode seven of season two is called Give Up Already.

466
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:34,000
Should we?

467
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:35,200
Should we?

468
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:36,600
Oh my God.

469
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,760
OK, everyone is prepping for the school festival.

470
00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:41,880
They're behind schedule.

471
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:45,080
Both Kazehaya and Sawako have are like missing.

472
00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:48,560
They're both ditching it today because it's the same day that everything happened.

473
00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:50,800
Where you see is Kazehaya walking around aimlessly.

474
00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:55,880
He asks him if Sawako or if he asked Sawako out and Kazehaya says he got rejected.

475
00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:59,680
He explains to Ryu that he was just a bother to her after all.

476
00:14:59,880 --> 00:15:02,800
Nearby, Karumi ears, Eaves drops on their conversation.

477
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:03,960
It's the next day.

478
00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:05,560
Sawako is near the front of the school.

479
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:07,400
She turns the corner to see Karumi.

480
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:11,720
Sawako tells Karumi that she got rejected and Karumi tells her to stop acting like their friends.

481
00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:13,000
You have a girl.

482
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,320
They can't even be rivals anymore.

483
00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:18,440
Sawako asks if she can't be rivals because she got rejected.

484
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:21,040
And Karumi is like, no, it's because you aren't even putting up a fight.

485
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,320
Sawako tries to piece together what that means.

486
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,920
And Karumi gets even more angry and calls her dense.

487
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:30,400
Yeah, fucking get her.

488
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:34,160
Then she says that she hasn't been paying attention to Kazehaya at all, actually.

489
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:36,920
And she's the one that confessed her real feelings to Kazehaya.

490
00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:40,440
So they can't be looked into the same categories because she actually tried and stuff.

491
00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:42,840
And then she starts to tear up and runs off.

492
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:46,200
Yeah, it's interesting because they're like the opposite ends of the spectrum.

493
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:53,360
Whereas Karumi was so invested in Kazehaya and what he was doing and who he was.

494
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:55,280
But he wasn't into her.

495
00:15:55,280 --> 00:16:00,480
And then with Sawako, it's like he's fully into her versus.

496
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:02,200
And I don't know.

497
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:05,440
Sawako is just in her own planet, but the.

498
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:09,760
They had quite a different experience of liking Kazehaya.

499
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:13,640
Yeah, I mean, I really feel like Karumi's idea of this was like they basically

500
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:15,080
have different approaches, right?

501
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:16,960
Or it's like Karumi's approach is to like.

502
00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:21,160
Get around stuff and like try to make situations happen and that kind of thing.

503
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:22,720
And Sawako's approach is to be like.

504
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:25,240
Adorable and kind of helpless or whatever.

505
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,440
And then at this point, she realized like, oh, that's not an approach.

506
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:28,360
You're just like this.

507
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:30,360
Like you're you just are a huge wuss.

508
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:32,800
Yeah. And then she gets mad.

509
00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:33,840
She's disappointed.

510
00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:35,800
Also, I have the same reaction.

511
00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:37,800
I am like, yes, I'm also disappointed.

512
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:40,480
Oh, it's the evening.

513
00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:44,280
Sawako gets a text from Chizu to come over so they can make costumes for the festival.

514
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:48,080
At the school, some boys are trying to sneak their float off the property

515
00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:49,800
to work on it after hours.

516
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:52,520
Pin catches them, but then it's like, actually, I don't care about this.

517
00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:54,200
Y'all could just go whatever.

518
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:56,560
But then he sees Kazehaya and he's like, hey, man,

519
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,920
heard you were being a huge jerk to Sawako today by leading her on and then

520
00:16:59,920 --> 00:17:03,920
rejecting her. And Kazehaya tries to correct him and says that he was the one

521
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:06,040
that got rejected. And pins like what?

522
00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:07,720
And then saw her.

523
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:09,960
Then Kazehaya recounts his experience.

524
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:12,720
Then concludes that Kazehaya probably just did it wrong.

525
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,600
Then he tells him he's too caught up in his own crap and should just forget all

526
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:18,280
that stuff at Chizu's place.

527
00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:20,560
A bunch of girls are trying to sew together outfits.

528
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:24,760
Sawako helps some girls realize that you have to pin the fabric on with the right

529
00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:26,320
sides facing you.

530
00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:29,040
You don't want to seem to be inside the fabric.

531
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:30,560
Yeah, you dummy.

532
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:32,160
On the outside.

533
00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:33,160
Um.

534
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:38,080
Chizu gets up to get something and Sawako follows her out.

535
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:40,600
She thanks Chizu for yelling at her earlier.

536
00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:43,280
Ioni comes into the hallway for some reason.

537
00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:48,240
Sawako says it wasn't until them that there were people in her life that

538
00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:49,760
actually liked her.

539
00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:52,360
They're like, weren't her family, I guess.

540
00:17:52,360 --> 00:17:55,240
Chizu feels much better and then goes and gets drinks for everyone.

541
00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:58,760
While sewing, Sawako reflects on what Karumi said earlier and wonders if she

542
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:00,960
actually told Kazehaya her feelings or not.

543
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:02,880
The answer is no.

544
00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:03,880
She died.

545
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:04,880
No, no problem.

546
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:06,800
But at least she's thinking about it.

547
00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:09,000
God, it's the next day.

548
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:12,760
Sawako sees Karumi at school and she gives her the cold shoulder.

549
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:15,360
I mean, Karumi gives her the cold shoulder.

550
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:16,720
Kent shows up.

551
00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:19,880
He's about to tell Sawako something important, but Ioni and Chizu stop him

552
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:21,560
and tell him that this is all his fault.

553
00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:23,200
Kent's like, yeah, I know.

554
00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:25,760
Anyway, Sawako, my bad for yesterday.

555
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:29,160
I think Kazehaya like actually likes you and he says this out loud and

556
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:31,280
everybody hears this and starts chattering.

557
00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:35,160
Sawako says, no, wait, this is all a misunderstanding.

558
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:36,520
We've heard this before.

559
00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:37,520
Else.

560
00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:43,040
It's a different kind of like she says, right as Kazehaya and Ryu turns the

561
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:44,960
quarter, he has heard everything.

562
00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:49,440
Sawako is about to say something to him when Joe shows up and starts talking

563
00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:52,600
to Kazehaya and then he's like, why is everybody standing here?

564
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:55,880
Kazehaya is like, whatever, it's nothing.

565
00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:57,600
And they just walk off.

566
00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:00,840
Kent tries to tell Kazehaya something, but Ioni and Chizu drag him off

567
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:01,760
before he can.

568
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:07,920
OK, this is the part where as the boys walk off, Ryu tells Sawako,

569
00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:14,960
look, I know I'm not one to talk, but you really gotta get better at communicating.

570
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:18,360
Oh, yeah, that's my next bullet point.

571
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:24,160
Oh my God, I'm like, how bad is it that he's telling you that?

572
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:27,480
It's funny when they drag Kent off because he what he says,

573
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:29,480
then he's like, why can't I clarify this?

574
00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:30,920
Why can't I clarify the situation?

575
00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:31,920
It's pretty bad.

576
00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:34,240
Which like maybe you should have let him do that.

577
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:38,200
Joe asks us going on Kazehaya says, nothing.

578
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:39,600
They all start walking array.

579
00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:41,840
Ryu stops and tells Sawako that while he's not one to talk,

580
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:43,600
she probably didn't communicate effectively back there.

581
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:47,080
Sawako's wonders to herself if she's just going to be passive forever.

582
00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:48,640
Finally.

583
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:50,520
Yes, you're being too passive.

584
00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:53,760
Yes, this is your fundamental problem.

585
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:54,760
Uh-huh.

586
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:58,840
Oh, it only took seven episodes to get here.

587
00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:00,840
For real.

588
00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:01,840
God.

589
00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:03,840
Yeah, this is a very funny scene.

590
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:07,040
I like how Kent just says out loud and just like doesn't care.

591
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:10,040
I honestly, I like I honestly his face.

592
00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:12,040
Oh my God, she hates him.

593
00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:13,040
She hates this guy.

594
00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:20,880
I was like one shot and like so wide and like it's aspirated.

595
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:21,880
It's good.

596
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:23,880
Let's see elsewhere.

597
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:27,960
Kent asks Ayane if he thinks he messed up or if she thinks he messed up

598
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:31,640
everything completely and she says obviously he thinks he messed up

599
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,280
everything and then she shakes him by the lapels.

600
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:38,200
He reiterates that he's mostly an honest guy.

601
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:41,760
And then Perumi shows up and tells them to move because they're blocking

602
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:43,760
the vending machine.

603
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:47,440
Kent is like, Oh, hey, Karumi, did anything happen after I told you about

604
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:49,560
Kazakai and Sawako?

605
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:53,320
And I honey, Jesus, get mad at him and accuse her of scheming.

606
00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:59,160
Karumi says that she just told her off and like, why does it even matter?

607
00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:02,120
Because she's a chicken who can't even like give the guy she likes

608
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:03,640
Valentine's Day chocolate.

609
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:07,160
And Ayane realizes that Karumi is the one that messed with Sawako on

610
00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:08,920
Valentine's Day.

611
00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:11,720
Karumi is like, yeah, but like so what? It only works.

612
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:14,320
I'm only able to mess with her because she isn't trying that hard.

613
00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:16,400
If she was actually trying, I couldn't even do anything.

614
00:21:17,120 --> 00:21:21,120
Kent's like, wait a minute, Karumi, do you also like Kazahaya?

615
00:21:21,120 --> 00:21:23,240
And she's like, yeah, dude.

616
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:25,240
And he goes, hmm, hmm.

617
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:30,280
OK, so if I started dating Sawako, that would be like good for you, I guess.

618
00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:34,600
And then she turns and slaps him and tells him to stay out of it.

619
00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:38,840
And Karumi says that she refuses to think she lost to somebody as pathetic

620
00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:41,080
as Sawako is being right now.

621
00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:42,560
And then she runs off.

622
00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:43,720
Yep.

623
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:49,440
Kent says Sawako likes Kazahaya then.

624
00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:52,440
Or Kent asks if Sawako likes Kazahaya.

625
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:54,320
She's like, OK, so she likes him, right?

626
00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:56,160
And Ayane tells him to mind his own business.

627
00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:59,880
And all of this being a nice guy is just him being a narcissist.

628
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:03,440
Ever since he's inserted himself, it's made everything worse.

629
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:05,320
And he should just go away.

630
00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:06,960
Then we cut to Sawako in the library.

631
00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:10,200
She thinks to herself that she wasn't paying attention to Kazahaya after all,

632
00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:14,760
and hasn't taken the initiative on anything ever of all time as we cut to credits.

633
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,840
Yeah, I like my thoughts exactly, Ayane.

634
00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:20,640
You tell him.

635
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:21,800
Here's the here's the thing.

636
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:22,560
Here's the problem.

637
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:24,440
This is the thing that I've been caught up in, right?

638
00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:27,160
It's like, on one hand, I like Kent.

639
00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:28,560
I mean, this is correct, right?

640
00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:30,680
Like, she's right that it's like, oh, you're just like doing this

641
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:33,280
because you're like, you're kind of bored.

642
00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:35,040
You're kind of just like only thinking of yourself.

643
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:37,600
You're kind of just like wanting to be entertained.

644
00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:39,680
Like all that stuff is true.

645
00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:45,320
The thing is, is I end up like it's hard for me to be on Ayane's side here

646
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:49,880
because like as a story, like as the story so far, Kent is the only one

647
00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:51,240
making the story go.

648
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:54,520
So it's like, I want to like Kent because he's the only one giving this story

649
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:56,320
any forward momentum at all.

650
00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:59,520
And to be like, have someone yell at him for giving the story forward

651
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,640
momentum is just like, Ayane, if we got what you wanted, this would be

652
00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:04,200
the most boring show ever.

653
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:04,960
You know what I mean?

654
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:05,800
Like.

655
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:12,360
Well, she's I want to I think like wanting Sawakata to reach these things

656
00:23:12,360 --> 00:23:15,040
of her own. Yeah.

657
00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:16,960
Doing organic.

658
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:18,000
But she isn't.

659
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:19,320
But she isn't doing that.

660
00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:21,200
And she hasn't like it's been months.

661
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:22,560
Yeah.

662
00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:23,040
You know what I mean?

663
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:25,640
Like I don't understand like.

664
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:28,800
Ayane kind of gets on her high horse here, but it's also like, listen, dog,

665
00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:31,760
like your approach was not working either at all.

666
00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:37,000
Like, yeah, I mean, I guess Kent made the situation worse, but it's also like

667
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:40,120
he also made the situation move.

668
00:23:40,120 --> 00:23:41,480
Yeah.

669
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:43,720
And so I end up like liking that.

670
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:46,200
I like as an audience member, I like him.

671
00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:50,640
Well, he's, yeah, doing the work that the rest of us have been just like

672
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:56,200
agonizing over like why, you know, these making things happen for our sake.

673
00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:57,280
Yeah, he's making things happen.

674
00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:00,280
But it's like it's hard for me to like stand there and share for Ayane when

675
00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,600
I'm just like, but you haven't done anything.

676
00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:04,520
You're like, you barely been in this season.

677
00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:06,040
You haven't done anything.

678
00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:07,480
She changed her hair.

679
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:08,960
I mean, she is like this.

680
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:10,840
Yeah.

681
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:11,560
It's weird.

682
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:13,440
Like the thing when he's like, oh, Karumi, if I did it,

683
00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:14,320
it's all going to be good for you.

684
00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:15,120
That's like a weird.

685
00:24:15,120 --> 00:24:16,720
I don't really get why he's saying that.

686
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:20,880
Well, because this is a show Joe and that's such a like show Joe thing

687
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:25,120
where like the guy who likes the main girl and the girl who likes the main guy,

688
00:24:25,120 --> 00:24:28,760
like try to collude to get what each of them wants.

689
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:30,640
And it never worked.

690
00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:32,800
It's like a thing that happens a lot.

691
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:33,320
I see.

692
00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:35,560
So he's like proposing that and she like shoots it down.

693
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:36,400
Yeah.

694
00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:38,560
OK, that makes it because I didn't really get that because I'm like,

695
00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:42,040
otherwise because like, I don't think Kent is actually after

696
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:44,320
Sawako in any meaningful way.

697
00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:46,560
I thought he was just doing that because he's kind of bored.

698
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:49,800
So that was I thought that was weird.

699
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:50,680
Yeah, I know.

700
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:52,040
Yeah.

701
00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:57,600
Like, let me help you get what you want and I'll get what I want as a result.

702
00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:01,200
It also doesn't really like follow logically with anything he does next.

703
00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:02,880
So I was just kind of confused.

704
00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:03,360
Yeah.

705
00:25:03,360 --> 00:25:04,880
Well, she she said no.

706
00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:07,240
Oh, yeah.

707
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:08,240
She slapped him.

708
00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:09,400
He slapped him.

709
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:10,400
It's very good.

710
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:12,000
This is a great Karumi episode.

711
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:13,120
Karumi owns.

712
00:25:13,120 --> 00:25:14,360
I love her.

713
00:25:14,360 --> 00:25:15,240
She's so good.

714
00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:16,520
Yep.

715
00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:17,560
This is what Sawako needs.

716
00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:19,440
Sawako needs someone to get up there and be like, hey,

717
00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:21,560
you're being passive and a loser and I hate you.

718
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:23,160
Maybe don't need to say I hate you.

719
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:25,560
But like, you know, got to tell her off.

720
00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:27,360
Mm hmm.

721
00:25:27,360 --> 00:25:29,840
She can't just be like the saddest, what is cat forever?

722
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:32,680
You know, like she has to you got to shake her a little bit.

723
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:33,680
Yep.

724
00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:35,240
Anything else in episode seven?

725
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:38,320
And I think there's a moment with Penn where I was like,

726
00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:44,760
he's not so bad, like, he's a nice guy in these episodes.

727
00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:45,520
Yeah.

728
00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:47,440
He's telling Kazai hi that he messed up.

729
00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:48,480
Yeah.

730
00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:52,000
Also, Kazai hi at the beginning, he was like walking around like a zombie.

731
00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:54,200
Yeah.

732
00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:55,360
Jesus.

733
00:25:55,360 --> 00:25:58,800
And it is it is extremely funny for you to be like, listen, guys,

734
00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:01,760
I this is not my wheelhouse, but even I know you guys are screwing this up.

735
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:03,600
Yeah.

736
00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:06,600
And like embarrassingly bad ways.

737
00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:07,400
Yeah.

738
00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:11,560
Man, we get a few real things later.

739
00:26:12,360 --> 00:26:14,760
That was delighted by.

740
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:16,240
Yeah, I guess.

741
00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:17,520
OK.

742
00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:19,480
Episode eight is called Reach.

743
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:23,640
We open on a flashback montage of previous events after we cut

744
00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:27,680
afterwards, we cut to saw a go carrying books in the hall as Penn comes and talk to her.

745
00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:32,320
He asks her about the festival progress, and it seems like they're back on schedule mostly.

746
00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:36,440
Penn tells her that's great because they need to be better than everybody else.

747
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:39,240
And saw what go thinks that he made a bet with the other teachers.

748
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:44,360
Then he tells Sawako that cause hi is not as decent as she thinks.

749
00:26:44,360 --> 00:26:46,640
And she should just forget him because he sucks.

750
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:49,360
They go into class.

751
00:26:49,360 --> 00:26:51,520
Everybody is working on festival activities.

752
00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:55,520
Both Sawako and Kazi high reflect on things Penn has told them.

753
00:26:57,520 --> 00:27:01,320
We get more flashbacks as they think about what they feel towards each other.

754
00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:05,320
And then we get a montage of festival prep as the OP plays.

755
00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:09,320
I know it felt like end of the season kind of thing.

756
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:09,920
Yeah.

757
00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:15,120
It was such a weird thing to happen because like what is the OP has to do with festival prep?

758
00:27:16,120 --> 00:27:17,120
I know.

759
00:27:17,120 --> 00:27:24,120
I know because normally that's like, last season did this too where there's like a few fakeouts

760
00:27:24,120 --> 00:27:27,520
where it's like, OK, well, this feels like the last episode of the season.

761
00:27:28,120 --> 00:27:33,320
Yeah, but like then they do the last they did the OP playing over like the end, right?

762
00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:34,120
Yes.

763
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:35,720
At the end of New Year's.

764
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:36,720
It was an ending scene.

765
00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:38,120
This is episode eight of 12.

766
00:27:38,120 --> 00:27:38,920
I know.

767
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:40,120
I don't know.

768
00:27:40,120 --> 00:27:43,120
And this doesn't even lead to anything like the montage just ends.

769
00:27:43,120 --> 00:27:47,120
All right, anyway, here's some stuff that happens in the montage.

770
00:27:47,120 --> 00:27:50,120
Tomo and Echo were making cookies and drinking tea.

771
00:27:50,120 --> 00:27:52,520
This takes a long time for some reason.

772
00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:53,120
Yeah.

773
00:27:54,120 --> 00:28:03,120
I know they haven't been in any significant part of the story since they like moved chairs to sit next to her or something.

774
00:28:03,120 --> 00:28:04,720
So weird.

775
00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:12,120
Ryu plays baseball and we learned that he is the catcher, which is like kind of a weird like not the position I thought because isn't that like the.

776
00:28:12,120 --> 00:28:13,320
It's pretty passive.

777
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:17,120
So I think he'd be not like running around.

778
00:28:18,120 --> 00:28:21,120
Yeah, but I feel like the catcher is usually not your like best hitter.

779
00:28:21,120 --> 00:28:22,120
I don't know.

780
00:28:22,120 --> 00:28:27,120
It was shocking to me to learn that he was the catcher that just is not the vibe I got from him.

781
00:28:27,120 --> 00:28:28,120
Let's see.

782
00:28:28,120 --> 00:28:37,120
Well, we've seen him talk like when we saw other baseball folks go past and we said that was the most like animated.

783
00:28:37,120 --> 00:28:38,120
We've seen him.

784
00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:43,120
So maybe when it comes to baseball, he's more like take charge and I guess so.

785
00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:45,120
I just like he looks like an athletic guy.

786
00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:46,120
He runs all the time.

787
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:47,120
He's yes.

788
00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:49,120
Always running position.

789
00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:52,120
You don't run that much in, you know, yeah.

790
00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:54,120
It was just interesting.

791
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:55,120
Maybe he just was filling in.

792
00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:57,120
Maybe it's not his normal position to play.

793
00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:04,120
Anyway, there's a scene where Kent watches Salvatore watch cause a higher during this montage.

794
00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:08,120
It's just cheese's birthday and they have a class celebration celebrate.

795
00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:10,120
Just OK.

796
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:20,120
Also during the montage, Ryu like runs past her on his jog and then he stops and gives her a gift and it's like a little bracelet and she seems to like it.

797
00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:22,120
This also happens.

798
00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:24,120
There's no audio for this because it's a montage.

799
00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:31,120
But when she smiled and then he like the relief and like happiness is seeing her be happy on his face.

800
00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:34,120
I was like, oh my God, I can die.

801
00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:37,120
He's he loves her.

802
00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:39,120
Only there was audio.

803
00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:40,120
Only we can talk.

804
00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:43,120
If only this wasn't part of a montage for some reason.

805
00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:44,120
Yeah.

806
00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:45,120
Yeah.

807
00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:46,120
Let's see.

808
00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:50,120
Salvatore looks at the good fortune cause a higher gave her at New Year's during this montage.

809
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:53,120
And then at the end of the montage, we learned it's a day before the festival.

810
00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:56,120
I hate this much.

811
00:29:56,120 --> 00:30:02,120
OK, I feel like it seems like they always have to do outside of school work on these names.

812
00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:07,120
Like well, they're not supposed to months worth of time to work on this shit.

813
00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:09,120
I feel like that's a lot of time.

814
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:12,120
Time like well, like they're not supposed to.

815
00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:17,120
It sounds like they're not supposed to because like when they're like in the last yeah, guys are like sneaking out the float.

816
00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:20,120
It's supposed to be like, oh, you're not supposed to work on it outside of school hours.

817
00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:22,120
Yeah, everybody does anyway.

818
00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:23,120
Yeah.

819
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:27,120
Girls are sewing at home. So I'm like, OK, I feel like what are the rules to this?

820
00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:29,120
It seems like everybody's just cheating. I don't know.

821
00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:31,120
Yeah.

822
00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:34,120
And they can look. Yeah, you're right. They get a long time to work on.

823
00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:46,120
Like are they just I will say the scenes like I mean, it is like a community representation of the school because like anyone from the public can come and check out the school festival when it happens.

824
00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:53,120
I guess maybe the schools want it to do well and that's why they give it so much time.

825
00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:57,120
Yeah, like it seems like such a huge production.

826
00:30:57,120 --> 00:31:01,120
Yeah, like I watch other anime where they do like, I mean, it's like a pretty normal.

827
00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:06,120
Yeah, at least it happened. I don't know how much this happens in real life. I assume it happens. I assume it's not this high production.

828
00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:15,120
Yeah, but like the only time I've ever seen it like last several weeks is like if you're on the planning committee, which has to like coordinate everything.

829
00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:18,120
Which that makes sense. But yeah.

830
00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:24,120
Anyway, we returned from the montage and Sawaka wonders why she first started liking cause a higher.

831
00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:31,120
It's festival time. Everything set up for the Sadaqo cafe. She has to give people like mystic advice like she's a fortune teller.

832
00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:38,120
Penn sees this booth set up and we see Ryu who's like being the advertising guy or whatever.

833
00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:40,120
It's a source.

834
00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:49,120
And yeah, he's like at the bill. He's holding a sign. Ryu tells Penn that apparently everybody who talks to Sadaqo like loses their harmful or is that one.

835
00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:57,120
Yeah, they all go in there to like curse somebody and they all come out feeling better in the cafe cause a high and I on air serving people.

836
00:31:57,120 --> 00:32:05,120
I didn't get this cafe because like there's one line to talk to Sadaqo and then there's another line to just go to a cafe but it's just like a normal cafe.

837
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:11,120
I guess because he can't just have the whole class depend on one person to do everything. Maybe.

838
00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:13,120
It just seems like they're separate.

839
00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:22,120
Well, because they're doing they're using like the herbs grown by Sawaka is like the ingredients for things like that's the feed tied to her. Yeah.

840
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:27,120
Okay. Also, I kind of figured she would be there in the cafe, but no, she's not.

841
00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:36,120
What is the deal because I feel like some people it's like there's a class booth but then clubs also have to have their own booth.

842
00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:41,120
Like some people are having to work on multiple booths.

843
00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:43,120
Yeah, right.

844
00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:48,120
Like the only analog I have is like when they're like booth stuff at like college for joining clubs.

845
00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:53,120
But that's like only like orientation day and stuff. Yeah.

846
00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:59,120
Yeah, that kind of thing. I don't know. I guess you do. Who knows. It's confusing. Let's see.

847
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:05,120
Sawaka gets a smoke break and she uses it to look at Kazihaia's fortune, which she brought with her.

848
00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:08,120
This is not into being relevant.

849
00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:12,120
While she's doing this Kent shows up he like walks in on her.

850
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:15,120
He asks if he can tell her the truth.

851
00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:22,120
He sits down and says that he didn't think she'd stand a chance of winning over Kazihaia and even thought.

852
00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:28,120
And then she goes to the bathroom and says, you know, she said Kazihaia was the one person she couldn't talk to or she could talk to normally with.

853
00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:32,120
It looked more like there was a wall between them. Like she set up some kind of barrier.

854
00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:39,120
As soon as he says this Sawaka starts zoning out and thinking about if that's true.

855
00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:49,120
Ken continues talking saying that he thought she was cute and would give up on him and then like would assemble in the class and then like, I don't know, could like live your own life and date someone, you know, maybe like me.

856
00:33:49,120 --> 00:34:00,120
And then he notices that she's not listening and then he does some poses to see if like she's really zoning out and then concludes that only Kazihaia can make her cry or smile at all.

857
00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:02,120
He gets up to leave and snaps out of her.

858
00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:03,120
He gets up to leave.

859
00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:06,120
She snaps out of it as he's leaving.

860
00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:10,120
And he says that she has his support and he exits.

861
00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:12,120
Kind of cute scene, I guess.

862
00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:14,120
Yeah, closure.

863
00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:15,120
It's fine.

864
00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:18,120
I like this is where I'm like, okay, kinsen. All right, guy.

865
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:33,120
I think that her looking at the fortune is irrelevant. But I think if we think about the, because basically the fortune says, like, focus on love and blah, blah, blah, things will happen for you.

866
00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:39,120
I think she's just been like pondering on this concept of like going for it.

867
00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:42,120
Oh yeah, I mean like it's not going to show up again.

868
00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:46,120
And these next episodes, what I meant by that.

869
00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:51,120
I can't write down every time Saloko ponders anything because that's just the whole season.

870
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:52,120
She does.

871
00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:53,120
Okay.

872
00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:56,120
He doesn't talk to the cause like her.

873
00:34:56,120 --> 00:35:02,120
Yeah, Saloko thinks to herself that she did start building a wall between her and him after all.

874
00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:10,120
Kent puts on his server uniform because I guess it's his turn versus shift as cause a high approaches to end his shift.

875
00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:25,120
He apologizes to him and tells him that the stuff with Saloko was just a misunderstanding cause a high I says he thinks she's misunderstanding him to Saloko is the one who usually gets misunderstood, but she never gave up.

876
00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:31,120
While cause a high on the other hand gets mad and jealous easily. He's saying this about himself.

877
00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:37,120
He was the one maybe he was the one admiring her this whole time. Then the scene ends.

878
00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:49,120
He walks off and runs into some of his friends. They comment that Sotico is pretty amazing in this booth and he corrects them saying that her name is Saloko, which means that he says her name full name says the full name.

879
00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:52,120
They say the first name and then he says her full name.

880
00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:58,120
Yeah, you know, like a real bond James bond kind of thing.

881
00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:15,120
Saloko hears this and we get more about her feelings for him. She had put him on a pedestal before but the person she came to like turns out was just the normal guy not the not the elevated one she just likes the normal guy cause a higher.

882
00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:28,120
It's after school and she's when I on a catch up with Saloko. Saloko says that she doesn't care if cause a high likes any like somebody else and she runs off to go find him. Ryu yells after her telling her to go to the classroom.

883
00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:39,120
She dramatically passes Karumi who sees her running and does nothing as Karumi keeps walking I on a ask her if she's going to cut in because this is her chance if she's going to do that and Karumi says nothing and just keeps walking home.

884
00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:50,120
Saloko is running in the halls thinking about all the things she likes about cause a higher like his expressions and his smile. She kind of goes through all the expressions like a lot of expressions but they're all expressions.

885
00:36:50,120 --> 00:37:03,120
She makes it to the classroom or cause a high is sitting there waiting for her. She stops at the door thinking how she hopes that her feelings will reach him from me to him.

886
00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:09,120
So if she's close as I can get from me to you then we cut to credits. Yeah. Okay.

887
00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:15,120
Well, this happened I was like, oh, I remember the following episode more now.

888
00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:20,120
This is the very distinct theme.

889
00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:24,120
Yay Ryu for being like, go get him girl.

890
00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:27,120
Like, oh man.

891
00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:28,120
Yep. Mother.

892
00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:42,120
Yeah, she was the only one helping people out. Yes, for real. I'm gonna step up my note here is that Saloko was doing the anime girl run. Yes, the half bit arms going side to side. Yeah.

893
00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:45,120
You know how to run I know you know how to run.

894
00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:56,120
She does run and pick up trash so we do know that I hate the anime girl run. Yeah, I'm talking about it's like, you're running but instead of pumping your arms forward and backward.

895
00:37:56,120 --> 00:38:02,120
I mean, you do it like side to side like you never run before in your life because I guess it's cuter.

896
00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:11,120
Like you have no arm strength that'll hold them going forward. Well, noodle arms. But it just looks ridiculous. Yeah.

897
00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:18,120
It looks it bothers me so much in this scene because like part of this scene is like she is determined right.

898
00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:29,120
I want her to be like a little bit of desperation in a run like she's actually trying to get there fast. Yeah, doing this girly ass run. It makes it seem like she's not trying that hard.

899
00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:40,120
Oh God, I yeah, well she needs to if she passes anyone they need to know she's doing that because she's about to do something.

900
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:44,120
So they can't interrupt her. Yeah.

901
00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:53,120
Yeah, I guess she needs to not be like sweating profusely when she shows up. I think I think we should get some real desperation from her, you know.

902
00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:59,120
Yeah, I was going to be flustered enough as it is.

903
00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:01,120
Yeah. Yeah.

904
00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:09,120
What do you got about this episode? I said thank goodness this wasn't the last episode recovering today.

905
00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:19,120
This is like our more or less the send off we get with Kent. Well, he's on in the next episode. Yeah. How'd you feel about that? Does that does that reassess your assessment of him?

906
00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:26,120
I don't know. Happy to let him go from my mind. He apologizes to everyone. Yeah.

907
00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:50,120
I think, I don't know. Maybe he's surprised to see how involved everyone is in this pairing. So hopefully he'll think more about how his meddling will affect everyone involved in the situation because people are invested in their friends happiness and that happiness being tied to the success of their love.

908
00:39:50,120 --> 00:40:00,120
I mean, again, I can't help but think that none of this would have happened if he didn't meddle. So it's hard for me to be like, oh, you meddling was a mistake and I'm like, it's actually the only thing that happens to happen.

909
00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:02,120
Yeah, I have a question.

910
00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:03,120
Yeah.

911
00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:11,120
Did your mom say anything like she's she agrees with you or me on Kent?

912
00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:15,120
I know I haven't talked about this. Okay, I want to know. He agrees with you.

913
00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:17,120
Wait.

914
00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:23,120
Well, I mean, so I think I think that's a called shot. I can make pretty easily.

915
00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:34,120
Yeah. Yeah, I mean, no, I mean, the thing is like, y'all are right. He is like this. But also, if he's not here, this show is terrible. You know what I mean? Like, it is. Yeah.

916
00:40:34,120 --> 00:40:36,120
They're stuck in place. They're going to be necessary.

917
00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:45,120
Evil like the whole this whole season has been various people giving saw what go advice and her thinking about it for nine episodes. It's brutal.

918
00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:49,120
Yeah. Let me get to the next episode. Yeah. Okay.

919
00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:51,120
Episode nine is called confession.

920
00:40:51,120 --> 00:40:56,120
We jump back a bit for when saw a co first started running into the school.

921
00:40:56,120 --> 00:41:02,120
Outside Ryu tells cheese you that he knew where cause a high was because he was talking with him earlier.

922
00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:10,120
We get a flashback where cause a high tells Ryu that he is going to clear things up with saw a co and tell her that he likes her, though he already did that.

923
00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:14,120
We jump back to the end of last episode where saw a co has arrived at the classroom.

924
00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:28,120
She starts to open the door but stops midway cause a high walks over to see who it is and is stunned to see saw a co there cause a high opens the conversation by apologizing for making her cry before and for being a bother in general.

925
00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:32,120
He says that he will listen to whatever she has to say to him.

926
00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:34,120
And I guess that means he won't walk off.

927
00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:38,120
Yeah, I know right.

928
00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:50,120
Saw a co tells him that she came to tell him something. She says that when she used to help people, they would apologize to her for like putting her out, but he was the first one to thank her.

929
00:41:50,120 --> 00:41:54,120
He made her so happy and brought joy and color into her life.

930
00:41:54,120 --> 00:42:00,120
She starts to thank him for the various things he's done for her and the feelings he's made her feel.

931
00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:06,120
Then she says that she likes him and like a big cut of like her saying it a bunch and like a bunch of different camera angles.

932
00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:09,120
Yeah, so at this point, yep.

933
00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:16,120
I was gonna say just imagine the live action where they do that exact same thing. So cringy and live action.

934
00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:20,120
Yeah, the thing I need to mention here is that this whole time she's been hiding behind the door.

935
00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:33,120
Yeah, I very distinctly remember this where she's behind the door like washing insanely and like, you know, can't face him to say these things.

936
00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:35,120
Yeah.

937
00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:38,120
That's the last wall like a physical wall.

938
00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:46,120
She has to be the last physical wall that she has between the physical. Yes. Yes. Symbolism. Here it is.

939
00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:49,120
I hate this.

940
00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:56,120
Anyway, the next thing that happens where I'm I know it's causing a walk up and opens the door all the way.

941
00:42:56,120 --> 00:43:10,120
I'm just shattering the wall between them. So because things is too embarrassing for him to see her, but he grabs her hand and pulls her into the classroom closing the door behind them.

942
00:43:10,120 --> 00:43:14,120
The thing that seems like it should be way sexier than it is.

943
00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:16,120
We cut the outside.

944
00:43:16,120 --> 00:43:20,120
Sorry, do you think anything to do with saw because gonna be sexy.

945
00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:27,120
I don't like that in any other context that would be like they're gonna start making out or something. You don't have to be like that is that.

946
00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:34,120
Not for this show, but for every other show ever made, you know, if a guy drags you into a room. You haven't watched enough.

947
00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:40,120
The door behind them. You know, after you just said that you're in love with them. Usually a thing.

948
00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:49,120
Not this though. I was not expecting it. I'm my part was like racing watching. I was like, yeah, let's go.

949
00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:51,120
Oh, that's wild.

950
00:43:51,120 --> 00:43:54,120
I have a different reaction to this.

951
00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:58,120
We cut the outside. Joe is looking for cause a high he asks.

952
00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:04,120
You just kind of ignore him or like just smiles instead of saying anything. It's really weird.

953
00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:13,120
Well, it's because he knows there is the way he thinks about what cause a high is getting to do right now, which is like actually see this through.

954
00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:17,120
He's happy for him. So he smirks.

955
00:44:17,120 --> 00:44:22,120
Yeah. Yeah. And she doesn't cover for him. Just doesn't say anything. No.

956
00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:28,120
Fucking Joe went home. God damn it. I hate him. And then pin shows up and he asked I on a cheese.

957
00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:33,120
They've seen saw a code and they say no. And he was like, well, actually, I guess I'll look at you.

958
00:44:33,120 --> 00:44:39,120
She's in the classroom because sometimes she's there and they stop him saying that she went home actually, you know, the thing Ryu should have told Joe.

959
00:44:39,120 --> 00:44:44,120
Yeah, we cut back to the classroom where cause a high is hugging saw a code.

960
00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:50,120
He pulls back and looks at her and then she gets all embarrassed. They look at each other in silence for a long time.

961
00:44:50,120 --> 00:45:02,120
Well, he hugs her. I was gonna say he hugs her and then she like grabs his shirt, which is like a very subtle way of being like she's into this hog, which I think is reassuring to him.

962
00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:08,120
Yeah, that's good. Then Joe Burson and is like, there you are cause a high.

963
00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:14,120
Oh, everything.

964
00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:19,120
So go and tells her that pins looking for her. Also, what are y'all doing up here?

965
00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:29,120
I have three notes. My notes are dumbass Joe, somebody murdered Joe for fuck's sake. Joe, Joe ruined your kiss wish.

966
00:45:29,120 --> 00:45:44,120
Yeah, cause you were like, I want them to kiss and then listen. I can't be mad at Joe here because this very clearly is just the thing that is the most became clear to me at the end is that season two is just this.

967
00:45:44,120 --> 00:45:47,120
They have nothing else. They can't kiss.

968
00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:56,120
Okay, they have to continue on three more episodes. They have to drag this out for three more episodes because they have nothing else to do in this season.

969
00:45:56,120 --> 00:46:02,120
You know how in the other seasons, like in season one that I could there would be drama, but would be interspersed with B plots.

970
00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:13,120
Yeah, or other characters. Yeah, going on. Not happening this season. We only have this and it has to be interrupted by mundane bullshit because we have three more episodes.

971
00:46:13,120 --> 00:46:14,120
Oh, that's true.

972
00:46:14,120 --> 00:46:18,120
This season. I hate this season.

973
00:46:18,120 --> 00:46:21,120
Season so brutal.

974
00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:23,120
Yeah, Joe shows up whatever.

975
00:46:23,120 --> 00:46:32,120
Whatever. Joe has the most unimportant question that he could just text because I high about he's like what kind of snack do you want tonight?

976
00:46:32,120 --> 00:46:35,120
And like, oh my God.

977
00:46:35,120 --> 00:46:37,120
Get out of here.

978
00:46:37,120 --> 00:46:39,120
But.

979
00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:43,120
Okay, I'm almost done. So I'll just I'll get to it at the end.

980
00:46:43,120 --> 00:46:52,120
So I'm going to get some bears and runs off saying she's going to find pin cause I had I tells Joe that that was an important moment but Joe doesn't seem to get it or care.

981
00:46:52,120 --> 00:47:01,120
We got the nighttime the girls are working on costumes for festival day or for the festival day to day to I guess there's another festival day. I don't know.

982
00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:03,120
I guess they didn't do the parade with the floats.

983
00:47:03,120 --> 00:47:16,120
Well, I think it's just the festivals are two days. So maybe it's just the first day is like activities and second ones like the wrap up because something always have like a bonfire dance at the end of the festivals to

984
00:47:16,120 --> 00:47:31,120
I feel like time. Yeah, no. There's a day to clear loads. It's very weird because it's like they're just there's just a cut to them doing the costumes again and I'm like what's happening you already did the festival but I guess we didn't.

985
00:47:31,120 --> 00:47:32,120
Let's see.

986
00:47:32,120 --> 00:47:47,120
For some reason, Savako tells Chizu and I on a that she only sort of confessed to cause a high which made me insane. I got so mad when she says this because she's like we're catching they're like oh what happened and she's like oh yeah I like told cause a high my feelings they're like oh really she's

987
00:47:47,120 --> 00:47:54,120
like well not really I only told him some of my feelings it would be she says she could only tell him like one tenth of her feelings for him.

988
00:47:54,120 --> 00:48:07,120
That's because she's like in her mind gushing about all these things she likes which is not necessary for this moment at all. This is also not the question they were asking. Yeah.

989
00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:14,120
They asked what they're like oh well what did he say in response and so it tries to remember if he actually said anything or not. No.

990
00:48:14,120 --> 00:48:26,120
No he didn't but she doesn't say like oh yeah we like embraced for 10 minutes. Yeah. No she doesn't say anything. They're interrupted when pin shows up he says he's got a plan to convince the judges to let them win.

991
00:48:26,120 --> 00:48:37,120
He comes in and all the girls like grimace like the disdain on their faces when pin comes.

992
00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:46,120
I don't know why he hates him because like he seems if everything in these episodes he seems just like a like kind of a nice guy. Yeah but he's also annoying as hell.

993
00:48:46,120 --> 00:48:56,120
That's not going to be your teacher like your grades depend on getting information from him.

994
00:48:56,120 --> 00:49:01,120
He calls Salvaco out like out back to tell him his genius plan.

995
00:49:01,120 --> 00:49:10,120
He starts to tell her about the plan but instead she just blurts out that she can't look at cause a high anymore without impure hopes.

996
00:49:10,120 --> 00:49:20,120
Okay she acts like such a normal and a girl in this moment like yes this is the most normal like girly. Yeah.

997
00:49:20,120 --> 00:49:23,120
Moment I've had towards Salvaco this entire season.

998
00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:34,120
She starts like crying slash just generally kind of freaking out and pin is like bro what then he tells her that all teens have impure hopes.

999
00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:37,120
Don't worry about it kid.

1000
00:49:37,120 --> 00:49:40,120
And then he's like anyway listen this is really important.

1001
00:49:40,120 --> 00:49:47,120
The plan is for you to bribe the judges when you pass by them so like drop this on like in front of him.

1002
00:49:47,120 --> 00:49:55,120
Like you got to remember to do that Salvaco I understand you have impure hopes or whatever but you have to bribe these judges.

1003
00:49:55,120 --> 00:50:07,120
And then she says she'll remember it and then he leaves on his way home pin realizes that he said something super motivating to her just now it decides that he should go see cause a high because he's on a roll.

1004
00:50:07,120 --> 00:50:13,120
Elsewhere the boys are working on the float still pin burst in and starts talking to cause a high in the hallway.

1005
00:50:13,120 --> 00:50:24,120
He yells at the rest of the boy that got a high has impure hopes because I had shoves him out the door and then text Salvaco saying that they should talk again as we cut to credits.

1006
00:50:24,120 --> 00:50:27,120
This.

1007
00:50:27,120 --> 00:50:28,120
All right, next.

1008
00:50:28,120 --> 00:50:31,120
This is the climax is coming up.

1009
00:50:31,120 --> 00:50:32,120
This is hard.

1010
00:50:32,120 --> 00:50:35,120
How is this season not making you insane.

1011
00:50:35,120 --> 00:50:39,120
Because I've already seen it.

1012
00:50:39,120 --> 00:50:52,120
It's the most like the thing I liked about season one is that things you know we're kept pretty realistic like the way people were reacting to things it wasn't just like doing stuff to like create drama.

1013
00:50:52,120 --> 00:50:53,120
Yeah.

1014
00:50:53,120 --> 00:51:00,120
We spent time with the side characters like we had some really interesting B plus they like planted some flags I thought we would get to later.

1015
00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:03,120
And then season two just walks all that stuff back.

1016
00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:04,120
That's true.

1017
00:51:04,120 --> 00:51:07,120
I just feel like it's undermining season one.

1018
00:51:07,120 --> 00:51:10,120
I agree like we need B plot.

1019
00:51:10,120 --> 00:51:13,120
We need extra things happening.

1020
00:51:13,120 --> 00:51:33,120
Everything could be solved by B plot like it just becomes so grading to just sit there and like here's Salvaco think think everything out and excruciating detail over and over and over again like all these three episodes are just various people in her life coming up to her and giving her romance advice and then her being like maybe this romance advice is exactly what I need to hear.

1021
00:51:33,120 --> 00:51:37,120
And it's it's just that over and over and over again.

1022
00:51:37,120 --> 00:51:40,120
There's nothing in between it to like give you some relief.

1023
00:51:40,120 --> 00:51:59,120
I feel like season one was more like a standout from the rest of show Joe whereas this feels like it's falling into the same issues that others do because I feel like most of them don't have secondary story lines and it is just like miscommunications left and right and you know interference.

1024
00:51:59,120 --> 00:52:03,120
You know like detracting things happening.

1025
00:52:03,120 --> 00:52:23,120
Or at least back in like the two the earlier 2000s I feel like show Joe now are getting better about like actually having the series start but the relationship actually develop and then we actually get to see like the characters in a relationship and that not just being the conclusion of the whole series.

1026
00:52:23,120 --> 00:52:35,120
Yeah, but like I even feel like the way they're doing this by like dragging it out and doing it like piecewise is going to cheapen the like final climax right because it's like.

1027
00:52:35,120 --> 00:52:40,120
Episode nine is called confession they've already said everything yeah like they already know everything.

1028
00:52:40,120 --> 00:52:48,120
That means whatever bigger confession we're going to get at the end of the parade or whatever at the climax isn't going to be as good because of that.

1029
00:52:48,120 --> 00:52:51,120
You know what I mean like it it's not going to have it.

1030
00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:56,120
What do we guess we're going to be nervous going into season three.

1031
00:52:56,120 --> 00:52:58,120
I mean, I don't know.

1032
00:52:58,120 --> 00:53:02,120
Well we'll see it's just it's this is really disappointing.

1033
00:53:02,120 --> 00:53:17,120
This has been a very disappointing season to realize that this is the only plot going on and also it's gonna we're just gonna artificially drag it out like Joe has to show up for no reason to end the scene.

1034
00:53:17,120 --> 00:53:26,120
And then like even the introduction of Kent is like kind of ridiculous like did that really need to happen.

1035
00:53:26,120 --> 00:53:29,120
Yeah, I mean it did because there's nothing else going on.

1036
00:53:29,120 --> 00:53:41,120
Yes, but they could have done a more like inspiring like make the characters like make Saloka more likable by her coming to the thing herself rather than having to have someone else push her.

1037
00:53:41,120 --> 00:53:48,120
Yeah, and it's even like like this stuff was good. It's one of these things where it's like I bet there was a B plot in the manga.

1038
00:53:48,120 --> 00:53:51,120
Yeah, but there's something could have adapted it just didn't for some reason.

1039
00:53:51,120 --> 00:53:55,120
Yeah, like because the stuff that's happening like the story beats are good.

1040
00:53:55,120 --> 00:53:58,120
Like I like that Saloka realizes she's being too passive.

1041
00:53:58,120 --> 00:54:06,120
I like that she realizes that you know when she says she likes cause I hide that has to mean something she's kind of afraid of somebody liking her.

1042
00:54:06,120 --> 00:54:15,120
I like the fact that you know she needs to try to be bold and like not care if things aren't going to turn out well and just go and tell them what she feels anyway.

1043
00:54:15,120 --> 00:54:21,120
All that stuff is good, but dragging it out for nine episodes just makes it kind of excruciating.

1044
00:54:21,120 --> 00:54:22,120
Yeah, yeah.

1045
00:54:22,120 --> 00:54:27,120
And like even to get to like when she does the confession but she's still hiding behind the door.

1046
00:54:27,120 --> 00:54:34,120
It's like you aren't being bold in the way you need to be bold like I understand that you need to be bold like the actual climax like I'm sure in the climax you won't be hiding behind a door.

1047
00:54:34,120 --> 00:54:48,120
Yeah, but like this it doesn't feel good to be like finally I'm here but I'm also still going to cower and I'm going to need him to get rid of the door and it's like this is supposed to be a growth thing for you and you have it done it still.

1048
00:54:48,120 --> 00:54:54,120
I mean technically cause I hire has also been fumbling and needs to do something on his part as well.

1049
00:54:54,120 --> 00:55:09,120
Because he has been just like failing halfway through conversations at least he's like okay I'm gonna be here I'm gonna actually listen to what you have to say and then he does his part by opening the door.

1050
00:55:09,120 --> 00:55:16,120
You know, but he still doesn't do his part because his part the whole thing about causing hi is he doesn't actually open up about how he feels about things.

1051
00:55:16,120 --> 00:55:19,120
And he just hugs her and doesn't say anything.

1052
00:55:19,120 --> 00:55:21,120
He still isn't doing it.

1053
00:55:21,120 --> 00:55:24,120
He's still not doing it.

1054
00:55:24,120 --> 00:55:26,120
He's already freaking told her.

1055
00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:32,120
But not in the detail she is I mean she's going into she's got a whole frigging poem about how great he is.

1056
00:55:32,120 --> 00:55:34,120
Yeah, I think you're great.

1057
00:55:34,120 --> 00:55:42,120
Like the thing he realized with Kent when he's like oh yeah like I was admiring you for like your ability to like stick through being misunderstood.

1058
00:55:42,120 --> 00:55:44,120
I mean I couldn't do that in the confession.

1059
00:55:44,120 --> 00:55:52,120
Like, you know if he tries to go in and talk about her and all these things that she's just gonna be like there's no way no way.

1060
00:55:52,120 --> 00:56:10,120
I couldn't possibly think such good things about me like, or it would like to start well she also easily gets confused or like caught up in things I need to like be incredibly blunt and direct so you can't elaborate on his feelings in case she thinks that he, like if he says he

1061
00:56:10,120 --> 00:56:21,120
likes this about her and she's like I don't really think that that's about me so he doesn't actually like me he just is confused but you know like, I don't know.

1062
00:56:21,120 --> 00:56:31,120
I mean I understand it's going to be difficult but it's it's not that satisfying to me when she realizes that she needs to like actually pay attention to him and then the time they the next time they meet up he doesn't say anything.

1063
00:56:31,120 --> 00:56:33,120
Like you're so that's true.

1064
00:56:33,120 --> 00:56:35,120
What did you know about this.

1065
00:56:35,120 --> 00:56:37,120
There's nothing to learn about anything.

1066
00:56:37,120 --> 00:56:39,120
Yeah.

1067
00:56:39,120 --> 00:56:49,120
In terms of like the thing he's good at is he is a bit bolder like he will take direct action to do things. Usually it's only when he's under threat, but he'll do it.

1068
00:56:49,120 --> 00:56:53,120
Whereas her whole thing is she's very expressive right like she will keep talking.

1069
00:56:53,120 --> 00:57:07,120
Yeah, will try to resolve things and they need to do the thing that the other one is good at and neither of them have yet. Yeah, combine forces because it's episode nine out of 12 and we can't just get this over with already.

1070
00:57:07,120 --> 00:57:10,120
We've got to drag it out for three more episodes somehow.

1071
00:57:10,120 --> 00:57:15,120
Well, what any speculation on what's going to happen. Next time.

1072
00:57:15,120 --> 00:57:28,120
Two episodes are going to be about the festival and like getting it all set up and there's going to be some drama like I don't know someone will go missing or something. And then the last episode, they'll finally do the thing and we'll end on them like hugging or something.

1073
00:57:28,120 --> 00:57:30,120
Okay.

1074
00:57:30,120 --> 00:57:38,120
You're so you're so hopeful last season of an ending on a kiss and now you're like I'll take a hot.

1075
00:57:38,120 --> 00:57:43,120
We'll be lucky if they freaking hold hands at the end is embarrassing.

1076
00:57:43,120 --> 00:57:44,120
Well, right.

1077
00:57:44,120 --> 00:57:51,120
Cheezoo and Ryu will high five at the end. I don't know.

1078
00:57:51,120 --> 00:58:00,120
This is the way I will have to like avoid Joe at the end. I on a fire dance and he's trying to ask her or something.

1079
00:58:00,120 --> 00:58:09,120
I on a will like briefly make eye contact with pin and we'll get like a montage of Tomo and echo like.

1080
00:58:09,120 --> 00:58:11,120
Yeah, random.

1081
00:58:11,120 --> 00:58:13,120
Yeah.

1082
00:58:13,120 --> 00:58:16,120
Yes.

1083
00:58:16,120 --> 00:58:19,120
What happened.

1084
00:58:19,120 --> 00:58:21,120
I'm so high on this show before.

1085
00:58:21,120 --> 00:58:23,120
I'm sorry.

1086
00:58:23,120 --> 00:58:24,120
They just like forget.

1087
00:58:24,120 --> 00:58:34,120
I guess I did forget about like everything that happened in season two. So in my mind, this is a great show because why I remember season one.

1088
00:58:34,120 --> 00:58:41,120
Okay, we did get we did get some really good Karimi content. I'm being positive here. The Karimi stuff is great.

1089
00:58:41,120 --> 00:58:45,120
She's the new MVP of the show.

1090
00:58:45,120 --> 00:58:51,120
Kent is fun. Like I, you know, I don't know if I really wanted to stick around. I think we could be done with Ken after this.

1091
00:58:51,120 --> 00:58:52,120
He serves as purpose.

1092
00:58:52,120 --> 00:58:58,120
I called him a hero earlier, which I still think he's the hero of season two for making the plot go because otherwise Jesus Christ, we'd be doing nothing.

1093
00:58:58,120 --> 00:58:59,120
Yeah.

1094
00:58:59,120 --> 00:59:06,120
But you know, I'm ready to be, you know, we're okay. I feel like he played his part. That's fun. You know, be a little meddler. That's okay.

1095
00:59:06,120 --> 00:59:12,120
But everybody else man taking you. Oh God, I guess I like pin more now, which is never a good thing.

1096
00:59:12,120 --> 00:59:17,120
It's gonna break down your faith and pen.

1097
00:59:17,120 --> 00:59:23,120
Well, now I'm not in this weird position where I'm like, Iona needs to not like him, but also everybody's kind of mean to him.

1098
00:59:23,120 --> 00:59:26,120
And I feel like he's just all right. I feel like everyone's kind of mean to him.

1099
00:59:26,120 --> 00:59:28,120
He's a troll.

1100
00:59:28,120 --> 00:59:29,120
He is a troll.

1101
00:59:29,120 --> 00:59:33,120
I see that being annoying. Yeah. Yeah.

1102
00:59:33,120 --> 00:59:36,120
This is it. She's barely been in this season.

1103
00:59:36,120 --> 00:59:37,120
That's true.

1104
00:59:37,120 --> 00:59:44,120
I can't believe the biggest cheesy Ryu movement movement moment we got was in a montage where we couldn't hear them talk.

1105
00:59:44,120 --> 00:59:47,120
I know it was such a cute moment though.

1106
00:59:47,120 --> 00:59:51,120
Oh, like he has slight blush on his cheek and everything.

1107
00:59:51,120 --> 00:59:55,120
It's just infuriating because it's like they had time this season.

1108
00:59:55,120 --> 01:00:01,120
It's not like we've been using every second of this season to efficiently.

1109
01:00:01,120 --> 01:00:04,120
Yeah, there are multiple episodes you could just cut out.

1110
01:00:04,120 --> 01:00:05,120
I feel like.

1111
01:00:05,120 --> 01:00:06,120
Yeah.

1112
01:00:06,120 --> 01:00:11,120
And they could have put this stuff in there and they didn't. And it's so confusing.

1113
01:00:11,120 --> 01:00:16,120
We're going to end this show knowing nothing about Iona at all.

1114
01:00:16,120 --> 01:00:22,120
Why did she wear that violin pin?

1115
01:00:22,120 --> 01:00:30,120
I know it was so distinct, right? You think it meant something.

1116
01:00:30,120 --> 01:00:38,120
Okay. Well, I guess that's that of Perkeeming Nitsudoke this week.

1117
01:00:38,120 --> 01:00:40,120
It's better than having a banger ending.

1118
01:00:40,120 --> 01:00:41,120
Yeah, for real.

1119
01:00:41,120 --> 01:00:44,120
It better be like the biggest production ever.

1120
01:00:44,120 --> 01:00:46,120
Maybe it'll win me back if it's like, I don't know.

1121
01:00:46,120 --> 01:00:51,120
The animation was good in this last episode like Sawako look pretty.

1122
01:00:51,120 --> 01:00:52,120
Yeah.

1123
01:00:52,120 --> 01:00:53,120
They animated her well.

1124
01:00:53,120 --> 01:00:56,120
They saved the budget for this episode.

1125
01:00:56,120 --> 01:01:00,120
Yeah, I mean, but this is I feel like this is supposed to be the big

1126
01:01:00,120 --> 01:01:02,120
confession episode and it just didn't.

1127
01:01:02,120 --> 01:01:05,120
It just didn't land like I wanted to.

1128
01:01:05,120 --> 01:01:08,120
Oh, Joe's fault.

1129
01:01:08,120 --> 01:01:10,120
I don't think it was Joe's fault.

1130
01:01:10,120 --> 01:01:12,120
Okay, okay.

1131
01:01:12,120 --> 01:01:18,120
Okay, so we're going to move on to recommendations now and I don't have

1132
01:01:18,120 --> 01:01:19,120
one prepared.

1133
01:01:19,120 --> 01:01:21,120
I haven't been bad at that lately.

1134
01:01:21,120 --> 01:01:23,120
I really thought you were going to recommend Night in the Woods,

1135
01:01:23,120 --> 01:01:27,120
but I guess I'm only like three hours of it.

1136
01:01:27,120 --> 01:01:28,120
Yeah.

1137
01:01:28,120 --> 01:01:31,120
But do you really need to do you really need to?

1138
01:01:31,120 --> 01:01:37,120
Well, I need to know if it's like going to traumatize me in the process.

1139
01:01:37,120 --> 01:01:41,120
I'm afraid of this game now.

1140
01:01:41,120 --> 01:01:47,120
Do you have a recommendation prepared?

1141
01:01:47,120 --> 01:01:48,120
Nope.

1142
01:01:48,120 --> 01:01:51,120
I recommended Outer Wilds yet.

1143
01:01:51,120 --> 01:01:53,120
I don't think so.

1144
01:01:53,120 --> 01:01:54,120
Okay.

1145
01:01:54,120 --> 01:01:56,120
I'm going to recommend the coolest game ever.

1146
01:01:56,120 --> 01:01:58,120
It's called Outer Wilds.

1147
01:01:58,120 --> 01:01:59,120
Okay.

1148
01:01:59,120 --> 01:02:01,120
Tell us about it.

1149
01:02:01,120 --> 01:02:02,120
Okay.

1150
01:02:02,120 --> 01:02:03,120
So this is a game.

1151
01:02:03,120 --> 01:02:07,120
Let me let me pull up some information about it so I can I can give you some.

1152
01:02:07,120 --> 01:02:08,120
Okay.

1153
01:02:08,120 --> 01:02:13,120
I know I'm going to recommend this is a game that came out in 2019.

1154
01:02:13,120 --> 01:02:16,120
I developed by Mobius Digital.

1155
01:02:16,120 --> 01:02:21,120
I played on PC, but it's also on a bunch of consoles and stuff like this.

1156
01:02:21,120 --> 01:02:25,120
It is a single player adventure kind of exploration game.

1157
01:02:25,120 --> 01:02:28,120
It takes place on a planet.

1158
01:02:28,120 --> 01:02:31,120
You're like a little alien guy.

1159
01:02:31,120 --> 01:02:35,120
And this planet is very good at space exploration.

1160
01:02:35,120 --> 01:02:37,120
Like that's kind of your whole thing.

1161
01:02:37,120 --> 01:02:45,120
So you are a new explorer who is going to get inside a spaceship and go explore the planets in your solar system.

1162
01:02:45,120 --> 01:02:47,120
There are like four or five.

1163
01:02:47,120 --> 01:03:01,120
I think actually there's like six, I believe you're going to investigate the alien ruins of the Nomai, which is like a forerunner alien race that has left, you know, different.

1164
01:03:01,120 --> 01:03:04,120
Pro the in this.

1165
01:03:04,120 --> 01:03:05,120
Pro what?

1166
01:03:05,120 --> 01:03:07,120
That's for Mass Effect.

1167
01:03:07,120 --> 01:03:18,120
Yeah, it's kind of like that. Like there's all this different stuff they have these like different logs. You have a theme that can translate their language. You can like go and see kind of like what's been going on.

1168
01:03:18,120 --> 01:03:35,120
But in in your travels are kind of in the startup of this game, you or your character gets stuck in a time loop. So every 22 minutes of actual time, the planetary system will reset as the sun supernovas.

1169
01:03:35,120 --> 01:03:46,120
And is your job to try to figure out how to learn about the now we and their quest for the eye of the universe.

1170
01:03:46,120 --> 01:03:56,120
And you do that by visiting different planets. You learn about the mechanic grades, right? Like it's not like you fill out an upgrade tree or a skill tree or something like that.

1171
01:03:56,120 --> 01:04:07,120
You by exploring the different worlds, you understand how this how the world works. And by learning how to trigger certain things are like, you know, this type of plant has this effect.

1172
01:04:07,120 --> 01:04:20,120
So if you get in this plant and then do this thing, you will be protected from, you know, the electrical fields around things, or, you know, by interacting with this rock and this way you can teleport to different places.

1173
01:04:20,120 --> 01:04:32,120
And by understanding how the game or how the world works, you're able to navigate to these different places and understand, you know, what what is going on and eventually, you know, make your way to the eye of the universe.

1174
01:04:32,120 --> 01:04:44,120
It's super fascinating. It's, you know, an incredible game. There's a little bit of a there's a little bit of some kind of scary parts to it, and not like horror horror but kind of like thriller kind of stuff.

1175
01:04:44,120 --> 01:04:55,120
It's incredibly cool. You know, it's probably like one of the most interesting games I've ever played. I think about it all the time. It's a really fun game. And you know, flying through space always feels good.

1176
01:04:55,120 --> 01:05:00,120
So outer wilds. Nice. Nice. It is like maybe one of my top five games ever.

1177
01:05:00,120 --> 01:05:02,120
Ooh.

1178
01:05:02,120 --> 01:05:18,120
Nice. Nice. Okay, I'm also going to recommend a game that I just started playing. It's kind of a tool. I've been using it for work. It's called Spirit City Lo-Fi Sessions.

1179
01:05:18,120 --> 01:05:42,120
And it's kind of like a productivity game where you like set goals and daily habits and can set timers of like work this duration and then take this kind of break and you like get points for doing that and you like unlock new cute little pets and you can customize space and it plays like, you know,

1180
01:05:42,120 --> 01:06:01,120
low-fi music and you can customize your character. You know, there's like sound effects. So I like to have like thunder sounds in the background and it's, I think it's been helpful because I have a hard time focusing sometimes.

1181
01:06:01,120 --> 01:06:27,120
And I like games. So let's make a focus. Basically, it's described as the gamified focus tool to improve concentration and ease stress. So I've been using it when I work from home because, yeah, it, I don't know, I need something that like help me focus and this has been helpful so far.

1182
01:06:27,120 --> 01:06:50,120
And I like cute character and all the cute little critters and stuff. Yeah, so I, yeah, Lo-Fi, Spirit City Lo-Fi Sessions, if you want kind of a game to help you get tasks done and stuff, I recommend. Very cute. Good music. All that jazz.

1183
01:06:50,120 --> 01:06:59,120
Yeah. And so wanna next segment.

1184
01:06:59,120 --> 01:07:22,120
Redis Five Stars. Do it right now. Pause the episode and go Redis Five Stars and then leave a comment if you can leave a comment. That'll help us out. Also tell all of your friends who like anime that they should listen to this podcast. They should get into showjo. Tell anybody who like, if you like any romance at all, if you have ever experienced or thought about romance in your life, you should tell that person to listen to this podcast.

1185
01:07:22,120 --> 01:07:37,120
That seems pretty inclusive. Yeah, go ahead and do that. We have one more episode of season two. Season two. We're gonna end it. We're gonna see how it ends. Maybe it does everything I want and more.

1186
01:07:37,120 --> 01:07:43,120
Or maybe it does something else. I don't know.

1187
01:07:43,120 --> 01:07:57,120
We'll find out next week. And then we'll be, yeah, and then we're gonna announce what we're gonna do next in terms of like season three should be coming out in August. So that's like very soon.

1188
01:07:57,120 --> 01:08:13,120
We'll let you know. Like because they haven't announced like how many episodes there are gonna be, how it's gonna be dropped, any of that stuff. So we're gonna take a look at that. And then next time we should have some idea about how we're going to approach that, including what we're going to watch next. So please keep a look out for that.

1189
01:08:13,120 --> 01:08:22,120
Or, you know, listen to the next episode. Essentially. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Pretty popular one. Yeah.

1190
01:08:22,120 --> 01:08:38,120
Yeah. Sweet. Well, thanks for listening. And you know what, if people give you advice, act upon that advice if you agree with it. Don't just.

1191
01:08:38,120 --> 01:08:54,120
What advice is just that's just taking it advice. That's your takeaway. Here's my takeaway. If you ever need to drag out your plot for three more episodes, just like have Joe burst in for no.

1192
01:08:54,120 --> 01:09:08,120
Just just create random things that happen. Just like a character who's so purpose is to be unlikeable and like he's your backup plan. If you need somebody to ruin a moment.

1193
01:09:08,120 --> 01:09:15,120
It doesn't even need to be funny. Just have it happen for some reason. Yeah. Maybe don't do that.

1194
01:09:15,120 --> 01:09:26,120
B plots. Add B plots. Add a B plot. Just add a B plot. Your A plot cannot stand on its own. Add a B plot. Easy. Yeah. Easy solution.

1195
01:09:26,120 --> 01:09:38,120
A good B plot would be that Karumi is now acting differently in her like dealing with like all the people she used to be nice to being all pissy that she's like different now.

1196
01:09:38,120 --> 01:09:42,120
That wasn't good, right? Yeah. Oh, God.

1197
01:09:42,120 --> 01:09:51,120
Damn it. Yeah. That would have been so good because I feel like all the chicks would have been like she was faking it that you know blah blah blah.

1198
01:09:51,120 --> 01:10:00,120
Yeah, but like it's the most fat like the most fascinating thing still is like at the end of episode one or whenever when like Karumi's leaving and

1199
01:10:00,120 --> 01:10:12,120
Saru's like dang she used to be nice. Yeah. Yeah. She way better now that that's sent it that that to sentence exchange. It's more interesting stuff that could have been a B plot. Yeah.

1200
01:10:12,120 --> 01:10:22,120
Anything. Man. Don't make a montage in episode eight. Yeah. Stop. Weird thing to do. Doing what feels like.

1201
01:10:22,120 --> 01:10:34,120
Ryu Chizu moments in a month and passing. Yeah. Got a whole mini art class time. Yeah. Not doing them justice. This they get a scene in a montage next to freakin Tomo and Echo drinking tea.

1202
01:10:34,120 --> 01:10:38,120
What are we doing? Yeah.

1203
01:10:38,120 --> 01:10:44,120
All right. Okay. See you guys next time for the season finale.

1204
01:10:44,120 --> 01:10:46,120
The season finale.

1205
01:10:46,120 --> 01:10:59,120
Joe sounds super excited. I hope you are too. Yeah. All right. I'm going to be so fascinated with season three. Yeah, we will. I don't remember how season two answered depending on that.

1206
01:10:59,120 --> 01:11:10,120
I'll either be excited or unsure of season three. You know after we'll see. I'm going to be I'm really hoping I'll get to the end of season two and be like I understand what this didn't get renewed.

1207
01:11:10,120 --> 01:11:16,120
Oh yeah. Probably. That's true. Okay. Bye.
