00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:31,500
Hello and welcome to an all new episode of anime, Brinthreece. We are your Samurai hosts.

3
00:00:31,500 --> 00:00:38,000
I am John. And I am C.C. And when there's just too much cool anime to watch, we've got you covered.

4
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:46,000
Today we bring the adventure in spades because we will review the first season of the new adaption of Yiba Samurai Legend.

5
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:50,500
And of course, since it's our season finale, we will pick our best anime of the season.

6
00:00:50,500 --> 00:00:56,000
But before all of that, there is a couple of leftover shows we have to tackle in the quick and the dead.

7
00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:04,000
So, grab your favorite magic sword. Hunt down those seven legally distinct dragon orbs to unleash your full power.

8
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:06,500
And definitely don't pause the pod. We'll be right back.

9
00:01:06,500 --> 00:01:12,000
[Music]

10
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:17,000
Alright, yeah. We have a bit for the quick and the dead.

11
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:22,000
I have two shows. John has one if I'm not mistaken. So I'm gonna start us off.

12
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:33,000
I watched the second season of Kaiju No. 8, which, you know, the second core who knows at this point?

13
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:38,000
The second set of episodes. I don't even know I think it was 12.

14
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:49,000
So, yeah, we kind of stop with the big reveal to everyone that Kafka is Kaiju No. 8.

15
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:54,000
That was revealed to everyone in the defense force, whatever.

16
00:01:54,000 --> 00:02:03,000
And, yeah, he was imprisoned and about to be taken out, put down by Kiko Ruzfadder.

17
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:10,000
No, Kiko Ruzfadder, unless because he's like the top dog in the defense force, like he's the common dunt, whatever.

18
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:22,000
But then in a fight, Kafka was able to convince Kiko Ruzfadder that he is able to control its Kaiju No. 8, or at least willing to control it, trying to work on that.

19
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:27,000
And then they decided, "Okay, we're gonna keep the guy around." Under supervision, of course.

20
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:31,000
But he is the best weapon we have against the other Kaiju.

21
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:37,000
So, we would be stupid not to use it if there's still a human inside of that.

22
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:48,000
Kiko's father is like, "As soon as I smell that he can control the Kaiju inside of him, not anymore, I'm gonna take him down."

23
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,000
So, that is the status quo at the beginning of the season.

24
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:58,000
And they drop all pre-tensors in the first episode and put a "We have Godzilla at home" on the screen to attack the city.

25
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:04,000
It was funny. It's like, "That's Jessica Zilla. That's not even remotely."

26
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:09,000
That's just the old-school King of Kaiju. Old-school King of Kaiju.

27
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:20,000
Yeah, that made me laugh. But all right. We got a couple of colorful new characters like, for example, Ganaromi, the captain of the first division of the defense force, which we haven't met yet.

28
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:24,000
And he's a messy gamer boy. He's a slob boy.

29
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:29,000
But he's fun. He has like this giant sword and no sort of handle it.

30
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:40,000
He's always clashes with Kiko and everything. And they have kind of like a brother-sister, not problematic brother-sister relationship in a way.

31
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:44,000
About time? Yeah, it's just fun.

32
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:49,000
When they do those two aren't screened, it's fun. And Kafka is on probation.

33
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:55,000
Like I said, if he lose control, then he will be killed and turned into a weapon for someone else to use.

34
00:03:55,000 --> 00:04:04,000
That's something that was introduced in the previous season. Like Kaiju, most of the Kaiju that get taken down, that get killed, are used.

35
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:10,000
Or at least the big ones, the numbered ones, get turned into weapons. And then those are used by normal humans.

36
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,000
Taking a little bit of a page at a monster hunter, huh?

37
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:20,000
Yeah, right. Yeah, pretty much. Yeah. I would not be surprised if the creator of this manga played a lot of monster hunter actually, because...

38
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:33,000
It definitely feels like that feels like that in more ways than one. So, well, yeah, you know, Kiko's father, director Shinomiya has like...

39
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:40,000
I think he has the weapons... He has like these gloves, the power glove...

40
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:43,000
It's so bad. It's so bad.

41
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:54,000
Two of those. I think that's the weapon that was made from Kaiju No. 2. And later in this season, we have Renault, one of our main side characters, you know, who...

42
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:59,000
Who was... For a while, the only one who knew that Kafka was Kaiju No. 8, he gets like...

43
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:11,000
Sood made from Kaiju No. 6, like an ice suit, like he gets ice powers, which he has to learn to control, because it's not that...

44
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:16,000
It's not super easy to learn to control these weapons. It's actually super hard.

45
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:26,000
Renault, that is actually pretty much the arc in this season for him, like he gets the spiffy new suit. And he has...

46
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:33,000
We have his dynamic with IHaru, who is worried that he can't catch up to everyone else, because everyone gets ahead of him.

47
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:39,000
Like his main rival, Renault gets like this new suit, and he's like, "Man, I also want that."

48
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:52,000
And I feel like everyone is getting away from me, even I was one of the best ones in class and everything. But Renault has the same worry, so he's helping to not leashing his full combat potential without any consideration for what that does to his body.

49
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:56,000
Like he suffers several heavy injuries in the test fight against the Hanzu.

50
00:05:56,000 --> 00:06:03,000
But then there is this moment when Captain Ogotta, another new character, is about to pull the plaque on him.

51
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:13,000
IHaru carries Renault out of the danger zone and demands that Renault will let IHaru be his support. He's not supposed to do all of this by his own, because they're a team, like the whole defense forces a team.

52
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:17,000
So they can take down the Kairu as a team.

53
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:24,000
And he says, "You're younger than me, so shut up and rely on me, which is a cool moment."

54
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:31,000
And they take down the Hanzu and high five. It's very cool, really nice, bro moment, which this show is full of.

55
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:45,000
And yeah, we have a nice scene of Kafka together with Captain Hashi-Nah, which is one of the most badass characters in the show, like the super quick ninja skills with his two short swords or whatever.

56
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:55,000
And he was the one hot on the heels of Kairu number eight, but also was really trusting Kafka, so Kafka of course has a guilty conscience because he kept that secret from him and everything.

57
00:06:55,000 --> 00:07:09,000
And they have this nice scene together where Hashi-Nah forgives him for keeping his identity as Kairu number eight to himself. And thanks him for saving the third division, even knowing that transforming in front of everyone might have gotten him killed.

58
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:17,000
He did that to protect them and stop like this giant meteor that Kairu number, I think 10, it was through at the base.

59
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:26,000
And they have a training session in front of the memorial of the oldest recorded Kaiju battle, which was apparently in the 1600s.

60
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:32,000
And Kafka spots like the ghost of a samurai or something really interesting, the show hasn't followed up on that yet, so I wonder what that was about.

61
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:41,000
This was like really, okay, what is going on here? But I assume that wasn't just, you know, for fun and giggles in there, so we'll see where that goes.

62
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:58,000
And Kafka has worried that everyone in division three hates him now because he's a Kaiju, but when he turns on his phone for the first time in two months, he gets a heartfelt call from Yaro and Renault and reads all the messages from teammates wishing him well and it's moving him to tears.

63
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:07,000
It's just super good vibes like that made me feel really happy for him because he's such a likable character is one of the most likable main characters I've seen quite a while.

64
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:18,000
Not only because he's our age group, John, but I think a bit below us. I think he's like mid 30s or whatever, but he's that's practically ancient.

65
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:35,000
He's an ancient anime. Yeah, but you know, he's much more relatable, right? So I was, I love this character. I love Kafka. And it's always nice to see him like have getting a good time, even though he's going to has gotten through rough patch or whatever.

66
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:49,000
So yeah, but it's all not fun and games. The main antagonist question mark since the beginning was kind of Kaiju number nine who appeared and was evolving kind of in front of our eyes. And he seems to be the coordinator.

67
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:59,000
He was apparently responsible for instigating the attack on the base of the third division in the finale, kind of almost finale of the first season.

68
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:13,000
And he's still around and there is like, there's an attack from him and that kind of triggers couple of important moments like we see flashbacks of Kirikoku and her mom together.

69
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:24,000
She died in a Kaiju attack. We know that from the first season. And these flashbacks are, you know, better sweet because her mom was such a strong woman and force of good in Kiko's life.

70
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:31,000
And you can see why Kiko is so driven because she couldn't fulfill her promise to help and protect her mom by joining the defense force when she was still alive.

71
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:47,000
Now she's helping on becoming the best to protect everyone else. And you can also see a much softer version of her dad in those flashbacks before the death of his wife filled him with the undying determination and hatred that is, you know, too, too exterminate all Kaiju.

72
00:09:47,000 --> 00:10:05,000
And, you know, Kiko, the season also puts a lot of spotlight on Kiko in general, which I like, like she gets Kafka out of his funk in the beginning of the season by reminding him that he has strong comrades that won't be killed so easily, even if he goes berserk.

73
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:20,000
And also that he should believe more in his ability to learn to fully control his power and the Kaiju inside of him. And she finally gets the long overdue well done from her dad, which, you know, she was so eager to get in the first season.

74
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:23,000
Like there was a whole drive besides the stuff with her mom.

75
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:34,000
You know, she has earned that already many times over and deserve to hear it from him much sooner, but it's still very nice to see her face light up in her eyes well up with tears of happiness.

76
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:38,000
Like she's the best girl in the show. It's no contest. Like absolutely.

77
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:49,000
No, she's not the quote unquote main girl, but for me she is. But sadly, right after that, hardwarming moment her dad gets eaten by a severely leveled up version of Kaiju number nine.

78
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:59,000
Oh, yeah, who is after Kaiju number two's weapons he uses and he gets completely absorbed. He might still be in there, but it seems like he is dead now.

79
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:03,000
And Kaiju number nine is wearing his body.

80
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:09,000
So that sucks. That's definitely is like in the midpoint of the second season.

81
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:29,000
But it's like woof. Okay, it's Jesus that he could who can get get a fucking break is is horrible. And yeah, number nine says it will bring about the age of Kaiju and then kind of fucks off with with director Shinomiya's body.

82
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:39,000
We learn that Kafka's transformation is progressing the more often he transforms into a Kaiju the higher the chance he eventually won't be able to transform back into a human.

83
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:57,000
So there's like this. Shoot you. What will happen will eventually be taken over does he have to be taken down the same kind accounts for using the weapons made from Kaiju because not necessarily they don't get necessarily taken over by the Kaiju, but it's like steps the user's life force.

84
00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:09,000
So if you use a weapon to often you die from it, it's like, okay, maybe not go overboard, which is all the sort of thing Reno struggling with, right? And in the beginning director, Shinomiya as well.

85
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:20,000
And I guess Hoshina eventually too, because he gets the best coolest thing, the coolest suit of them all the coolest Kaiju weapon.

86
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:32,000
Because his battle suit is made from Kaiju number 10, the cool part is since tennis the first sentient Kaiju that was turned into a suit, the suit talks.

87
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:42,000
So him and Hoshina constantly bigger and banter during the fight like an old married couple. It's amazing. They have like diametrically opposed fighting styles.

88
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:58,000
So it's not easy for her to handle tense headstrong always go for the strongest opponent nature, but once he learns to somewhat control him by dunking on him in a certain way like triggering him heart, they become a goddamn powerhouse that is really fun and awesome to look at.

89
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:12,000
Like I want to think more of Hoshina in that suit, it's super cool. It's got a tail and 10 speak red eyes on the eye on the chest much more of a human Kaiju hybrid styled suit than any of the others. It's really nice. It looks damn awesome.

90
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:17,000
And the fight that it first like gets showcased in is also amazing.

91
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:30,000
And of course Mina, you know, Kafka's, I don't know, bright to be, but you know, the girl he's pining for is also in the season. She takes out a couple of Kaiju with a giant as railgun. Why not?

92
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:37,000
Like this when the show goes big is go super big. So it's is very fun.

93
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:57,000
Kiko is inheriting her mom's number four battle suit, which makes a gift of the ability to fly, which is also awesome. And then by the end of this season, like through after the halfway point is like this tease of, oh, we had new Kaiju appear, but they immediately disappear once they're like captured on camera or whatever.

94
00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:10,000
And then by the end of the season, the teased 11 to 5 Kaiju 11 to 15 appear in front of everyone. So everyone gets their one on one, shown in battles with their designated opponents.

95
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:19,000
Because number nine's plan was it to split all the strong fighters up with the first wave and then kill them with its new squad of numbered Kaiju.

96
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:33,000
So he sends in a bunch of normal Kaiju and then the number ones to separate everyone and take them out and one on one battles and the new numbered Kaiju are designed specifically to counter the abilities of the respective defense force members.

97
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:47,000
Nine did its homework. And yeah, I think this season ends with an awesome fight of Kikura against 515, which is especially fucked up because 15 uses a human form that looks like a dark mirror version of Kikuru.

98
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:58,000
And then Kafka also intervenes in that. And I think the season ends when he unleashes his Kaiju form. So yeah, there's more to come, but the season was awesome.

99
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:08,000
I don't know if it was as good as season one. There was a bit more downtime. I feel like in training stuff, right? Then outright.

100
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:19,000
I mean, there was very pivotal moment with Kikura's father getting killed, but aside from that, there's more like training arc and character building and everything, which I don't mind. I liked it a lot.

101
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:29,000
So yeah, I am looking forward to more of this. It's it's just pushing all the right buttons for me. It's what I want out of a shown battle show.

102
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:46,000
It's got awesome Kaiju designs, awesome weapon and suit the science and this one, like you said, Monster Hunter vibes and everything. And I like love the main character and all the main set of characters like all the dialogue between those characters is so fun.

103
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:55,000
And a lot of good vibes and everything. So yeah, love that show. It's great. So looking forward to the third season whenever that is coming right.

104
00:15:55,000 --> 00:16:00,000
Nice. Yes, John. What did you have to talk about?

105
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:08,000
Talk briefly about cultural exchange for the game center girl.

106
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:18,000
Started watching us thinking, you know, oh, this is nice and cute. And you know, it is boy meets girl. They bond over video game.

107
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:25,000
Girl speaks English, right? Yeah. Yes, girls speak fluent English. Boy kind of sort of is trying to learn how.

108
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:34,000
And I'm like, oh, this is kind of a sweet story. And then I stopped for a second. I was like, wait a minute. How old are these characters again?

109
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:40,000
The main character, Renji is 18, huh? Lily is 13 years old.

110
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:51,000
Oh, okay. So I kind of was like, all right. Okay. And I kind of stepped away from it after that. Okay.

111
00:16:51,000 --> 00:17:02,000
I think this is a cute show. I think this age gap is kind of dumb. I don't think it needed to be written like this.

112
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:08,000
Yeah, I don't get it. Like they could have easily like made him, I don't know, 16, 15 or whatever.

113
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:12,000
Or maybe 18 or 16 or 16. Yeah. Yeah.

114
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:14,000
Yeah. Or her upright or something like that.

115
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:19,000
Because it gets weird because his sister is friends with Lily.

116
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:29,000
And he doesn't want her to know that, you know, he's been seeing her at the arcade. And it's like, brother, if you have this problem,

117
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:35,000
did you maybe think a little bit about this in the answer is clearly no, you didn't.

118
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:41,000
So I mean, like I said, it's a very pretty shows really well animated. The characters all agree. It's got this bright pastel.

119
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:52,000
The color scheme to it. It's got all of these really good things going for it. And then if you just sort of read between those lines,

120
00:17:52,000 --> 00:18:01,000
just a little bit, it's sort of like, brother, I don't know. I mean, if it's just friends hanging out and playing, I said, would be fine.

121
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:06,000
But I assume they're still going the romantic, romantic route, right?

122
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:13,000
It felt like, I mean, it felt like that's what they were trying to do. And I think I got out unlike the third or fourth episode.

123
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:20,000
And I was like, okay, all right. I mean, apparently the story is still going anyway.

124
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:34,000
It's not a complete adaptation. I mean, at least it looks nice, like you said. And if you know, if you're in the studio, no, Matt, you know, they're doing good work on it.

125
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:42,000
So I can't get down on them because of that. It's just, it's hard to get around the actual subject matter.

126
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:46,000
Yeah, that's true. That's a problem. That's a weird decision. I don't know.

127
00:18:46,000 --> 00:19:03,000
Maybe if they keep that's just going long enough for her to turn 18 or whatever, but still would leave a weird aftertaste in your mouth is like, yeah, he's just then he would just be getting out of college assuming he's going to a four year school.

128
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:14,000
And she would just be starting. And I'm just basically, I feel like the problem would be more like in your in the back of the head, your head, you would be like, dude,

129
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:20,000
have you been grooming this girl for like five years or what is going on? It's like, hmm.

130
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:26,000
And I mean, he suffers from the cause of a keen, oh, step problem of being a dome.

131
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:34,000
Oh, no, maybe not to that degree, but you know, I mean, that's tough of not having any forci. I mean, okay.

132
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:35,000
Yeah, sure.

133
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:44,000
Well, and like brother, please, what did you think was going to happen? Why do you?

134
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:47,000
Yeah, bummer, sound a promising when you talked about it and let's see if he.

135
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:53,000
I hate when they're these shows are like, oh, this seems neat. And I want to like this. But then that's one thing.

136
00:19:53,000 --> 00:20:03,000
There's that one thing. Oh, and you know, maybe it's just me and other people are enjoying it. And I hope they enjoy it.

137
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:09,000
Yeah. So that's basically the long and short of that. So, hmm. And you had one more for us.

138
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:17,000
Yeah, I had another second season was watching the second season or the second core, whatever of Don Don season two.

139
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:24,000
It's definitely second core ish because it's just the first one just ended right in the middle of a new arc.

140
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:30,000
And it just stopped and it didn't even, you know, acted like this was like a season finale or whatever.

141
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:46,000
And we just got acquainted with the new character, Gigi, the old childhood friend of Momo, the main girl and him, you know, and her first like love.

142
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:53,000
The first boy she fell in love with so automatically arrival for a or main male character.

143
00:20:53,000 --> 00:21:06,000
And yeah, so they investigate like this haunted house. And this is right where season P is two picks up right with that where that left off.

144
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:13,000
And this leads to the gang having to deal with a cult that sacrifices people to a giant serpent god.

145
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:29,000
And as you do as you do. And you and Gigi fuses with a spirit called evil eye and delivers some righteous kung fu soccer on set serpent god that turns out to be just a giant sandworm.

146
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:44,000
The problem is he also has a grudge against all humans so he and Okoro have an epic clash and Gigi and also definitely giving Yuri and from street fighter vibes in that in his get up as evil eye.

147
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:53,000
And all of this culminates in a chase to stop interrupting volcano and a giant battle royale. And that's only the first four episodes of the season.

148
00:21:53,000 --> 00:22:13,000
I just show so insane and I love it. It's crazy, you know, especially the battles of chorus, but also everything else around it and all the setup and whatever and all the crazy creatures and people that they meet and like the people worshipping the serpent god are like these these these elders and other people like this this.

149
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:26,000
These retired folks like super old people who can deliver the madness kung fu shit ever looks so ridiculous, but it's very funny.

150
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:34,000
So it's definitely riff on on all people in remote villages and everything. So it's it's just this show is so fucking funny.

151
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:46,000
And also you know incredibly well animated like science sorrow is just holy shit bringing their absolute a game like all the battles like I said look insane.

152
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:55,000
Although most of these in the second court don't have the puzzle elements a couple of fights and season one had one of them has a bit I guess.

153
00:22:55,000 --> 00:23:16,000
But I feel like that every every almost everyone in episode in the first season had that but they look fantastic regardless. So after that they have to deal with one of the several fallouts from this arc the first one being that Gigi is still possessed and transforms into evil eye every time he comes in contact with cold water or cold substance cold fluid, whatever.

154
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:45,000
And this can be undone by dosing him with hot water fucking tourbought team over here but that's easier said than done and it leads to the whole game shaking up at Seiko's house to keep an eye on him and the solution to all this apparently is an exorcism but of course since this is done a done not an ordinary ordinary run of the mill exorcism but what else power metal concert exorcism.

155
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:58,000
Fucking awesome john and I showed you that clip the best part is that the band has no spiritual power whatsoever they just walk so hard that music reaches into the spirit world.

156
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:18,000
And I feel like that's considering you know the music that they show in that scene that is appropriate is metal as hell apparently they got Marty Friedman the former leak guitarist of mega death to co write and perform that song for the recording and the lead singer for the English dub version of that song is Mark Hudson from Dragon Forrest that's dedication.

157
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:29,000
That's so cool that's so awesome when I found that I was like yo yo they went the extra mile for this shit and I love it.

158
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:44,000
And eventually though psycho decides who's the grandmother of mom incredibly hot grand mother is still super young for some reason just has gray hair but everything else looks like she's like in her 30s or whatever.

159
00:24:44,000 --> 00:25:02,000
So I think it's like the size to add evil eye to the family because GG backs her not to erase him from existence because evil eyes back sorry is pretty tragic and GGC only one who like season because they see saw that because they fuse together and everything so he empathizes with him.

160
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:26,000
But after a while they realize it might be impossible for GG to keep evil eye fully in checks so that becomes a problem and pretty much dominates the rest of this season in one way or another but it's not all battles and oh god what we can do whatever there's also the roman stuff still happening in the background because between or Corona and momo which was one of my favorite parts of the first season because it's.

161
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:52,000
One of my more like versions of this was not a will they want to but it's a very much like how will they like when will they because it's so clear there's these two men for each other and it's very nice to see them like take this road slowly and you know there's a lot of obstacles to overcome but you definitely get the feeling these two are men for each other and they will end up together you're very sure of that.

162
00:25:52,000 --> 00:26:16,000
The show makes that pretty clear and all their scenes are cute together all they seem together are very cute but you know there's a lot of funny shit also happening in that regard one of my favorite scenes from this season is when momos besties her two best female friends drag Okaruntu made cafe momo just started a part time job at just to tease her because that's the kind of friendship they're having.

163
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:34,000
It's very mean but also very funny and poor carun just doesn't know how to handle it it's incredible we also get a great montage backed by soft piano music without dialogue of momo getting more and more bored and annoyed with her job which is a mood.

164
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:52,000
It's very funny and also relatable and then when her shift finally ends even though she asked him not to wait for her Okaruntu comes to pick her up and they hold hands for the first time on the way home it's very sweet I love it it's so great together.

165
00:26:52,000 --> 00:27:04,000
And we get an unusual training arc since they introduce the concept of to go granny you know the creature that possess or ruins body and stole his dick and this balls and whatever.

166
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:25,000
That their power or his power in that regard is rhythm based so there's a musical component to it which is cool and to improve Okarunt skill in that regard to go granny makes who's now residing in the body of this good luck cat statue whatever in tanks around with the gang don't think too hard about it.

167
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:50,000
She makes him and Ira one of the other main side characters fight a ghost orchestra which is awesome like the focus of music in the season in general I really loved it was really great at the soundtrack of the show is amazing of course but you know also have that be the theme and also you know the recurring theme and everything and the fights being styled in that way and so on that is really nice.

168
00:27:50,000 --> 00:28:04,000
But that particular fight also looks really cool because pretty much everything is black and white or gray scale except a couple of highlights like the clothing on the musicians or occurrence and ira's hair it's a really neat visual aesthetic like the lot.

169
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:17,000
And of course we now have the rivalry between Ira and Momo of our current affection now on the one side and the rivalry between Okarunt and Gigi over Momo's affection on the other side.

170
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:28,000
None of this has come to a real head yet but it's of course a catalyst for a couple of things even though we know Okarunt Momo are pretty a pretty safe bet and meant for each other like I said.

171
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:37,000
And the last couple of episodes has the gang fighting a space Kaiju to get Okarunt's last ball back.

172
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:59,000
We also get another mainstay added to the core cast where I'd lose to zoom he's gonna be Kinta Sakata who is an even bigger sci-fi nerd than Okarunt and whose vivid imagination is able to turn Seiko's house into a Mac naturally that fight as visually arresting an awesome and funny I loved it.

173
00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:20,000
And it's just we have something like that in the show we're gonna start a review in a couple of minutes but I feel like this this looked even a bit more special and it's it's really great it's like one of the best Kaiju fine I've ever seen and got them the show looks fucking awesome.

174
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:37,000
And then in the very last episode in the very last scene it turns out that Kaiju was piloted by a hot alien lady who wakes up and immediately steals Okarunt's first kiss from Momo and that is literally all the season ends.

175
00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:56,000
Good times I wanna dramatic cliffhanger everyone so wow I loved it so that's that's gonna be a problem in the next season and I don't even know when that's coming but I'm I'm on the edge of my seat I need to see it I'm so looking forward to it.

176
00:29:56,000 --> 00:30:25,000
This is definitely one of my favorite shows in in recent time I love every second of every episode it's funny it's creative it's incredibly wild the shit show show throws at you and I can't just I cannot recommend to everyone to watch this hard enough like it's it's strongly enough it's just it's an amazing show it's fantastic it's got the heart it's got the humor it's got the action in spades it's got the looks check is looks amazing.

177
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:47,000
It's just a fantastic show like done and done everything everything that was promised to me in regards to this being the hype is delivered I just love it so yeah with that being said I think we're done with the quick and the dead and we're gonna move over to our last review from summer season 2025.

178
00:30:47,000 --> 00:31:04,000
Yeah so our review this time is a little bit of a throwback show so yeah sheen Samudai den Yiba.

179
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:33,000
Also known as the Yiba summer legend I guess yes this is the incarnation of it yes this is a remake retelling of an old show from the 90s we touched on a little bit from the sneak peak authored by one go show our Yama of detective Conan fame both are based on among all right yes I apparently misspoke when talking about the old adaptation of

180
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:59,000
the story arc that started at the tail end of this adaptation interesting but they're still more coming after that yes there's like five asterisk four more story arcs after that that appeared to be a lot shorter in terms of how many manga chapters they have interesting there was a shorter one that

181
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:28,000
from the looks of from what I read they can have interspersed through a couple of episodes early on so I guess they can sort of gloss over that later if the if in the do intend to make this a complete adaptation which maybe did also just gonna adapt only the the the arc that was just started at the end of the season again and then stop who knows what's the but it would feel like kind of you to do that like if you don't adapt the whole thing then

182
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:44,000
why do we make of this like unless the old show was shitty I don't I haven't seen it but I assume it wasn't I mean must had enough traction for it to come back yeah 30 something years later yeah yeah yeah

183
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:57,000
what's this show about it's about the following deep in a tropical jungle young yai bakuro gone a diligently practices swordsmanship alongside his father Kenzuro completely unaware of the modern world

184
00:32:57,000 --> 00:33:21,000
however one day the two end up in a container on its way to Japan there they encounter Kenzuro's old rival rhizomean and his daughter sciaca out of other options yai bak agrees to idea with the mean a household if he beats the strongest student there dojo he will be welcome to stay using his distinctive skills and extraordinary strength yai bakerns his place

185
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:42,000
wanting to fight more powerful enemies yai bakuro sciaca to school where he quickly loses to Takeshi onimaru and acknowledges him as his new rival with onimaru inheriting the sort of his bloodline and obtaining demonic powers yai bak most trained to become even stronger in him for good

186
00:33:42,000 --> 00:34:05,000
you to our friends may i'll rewrite that summary has your hand yeah and yeah this is a new adaptation by the crew that at this point needs no introduction with studio yeah yeah yeah the other big thing besides by family this season although that's a goal pro with the lower works that i'm not mistaken

187
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:14,000
yet they've been working on a short course on its its the beginning i think yeah this is entirely their thing and uh...

188
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:34,000
is it there is not a first big shonen action shows and set a content that ranking of kings which kind of goes into into this direction i would say because this is a like a set it's a throwback thing like considering the material is

189
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:37,000
what thirty years old at this point

190
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:55,000
thirty years i forget i forget when exactly the manga started but i can look at up real quick what you speak yes so it definitely that kind of is evident from the get go first in terms of style like

191
00:34:55,000 --> 00:35:08,000
the show got very cool couture designs uh old strangle or on my ass very bright call it it's really nice to look at of course it's a bit with right so

192
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:19,000
that they know what they're doing and it's very pretty but also just in terms of inherent designs and if you've seen detective colon you know what the character designs are like because that's you know

193
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:33,000
there is obviously a direct line between the two and you can see it very clearly yes that also if they'd also drop a reference somewhere in the show about detective colon i don't know if you picked up on that because i don't know if you watch that ever watch that show

194
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:46,000
it was really subtle but i'd look back at it after i was like okay all right yeah yeah i don't know if you want to give that away or for people who watch that as well find that out but yeah it's fun

195
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:57,000
it's very like one character mentioned something and you're like oh wait a minute i know that from that other show that thing that i know i clapped when i saw it

196
00:35:57,000 --> 00:36:06,000
yeah really much so i wonder if there was also in the old show because i don't know if he did detective colon before yiba or after it

197
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:18,000
oh okay i'm finding here that the yiba manga ran from 88 to 93 and the old adaptation was 93 to 94 yeah

198
00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:24,000
detective Conan has been running for approximately 200 years

199
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:40,000
the manga for detective Conan started in 94 and is still running to this day yeah case closed as the show is localized as started running in oh my god

200
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:48,000
starting in 1996 what do you mean so that's a so that's a follow so that's the follow up so i assume

201
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:56,000
either the reference wasn't in the old show or they had you know he already had done a beta version of Conan or one shot or whatever

202
00:36:56,000 --> 00:37:06,000
or maybe one of the characters that you know that appears there or whatever so it's in but it was interesting right immediately that jumped out of me

203
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:18,000
it was like ah there we go all right so yeah but aside from that this show is very much like an old school old school show in terms of humor

204
00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:26,000
like lots of loud reactions lots of funny faces on humans and animals alike definitely has that Saturday morning cartoon vibe down

205
00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:35,000
oh yeah i would have killed for something like that like you know as a kid sitting in front of the TV on a Saturday morning with Syria a bowl of cereal

206
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:43,000
and then just watch this unfold on my screen holy shit right kick my ass i would have just been addicted

207
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:57,000
and can it reminds me a bit of the map of my past ushian Torah remake which I reviewed on our show although this one being here to a much younger audience i feel like

208
00:37:57,000 --> 00:38:09,000
yeah a little bit it's a very light show in terms of character development in terms of like i said humor in terms of story there's not that much story in the show

209
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:17,000
it's very straightforward and i think that's fine that's totally fine like you just need to know what you're getting into this is like like i said

210
00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:21,000
it's in more waste than one and i alluded to that in my in in the intro

211
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:33,000
it's been more waste than one very early Dragon ball like heavily inspired by this it's so many ways you have to find the second the seven dragon orbs the what now

212
00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:45,000
would you call them yeah exactly also you know like just like that show a couple of somewhat etchy jokes i guess because Yaba walks in on sci-a ca and dressing or in the bath for example

213
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:57,000
but it never gets explicit or downright grow p like in seven deadly sins for example yeah i feel like that's probably something they tone down from the original which good

214
00:38:57,000 --> 00:39:05,000
i want it did they do that for the ram n'ra remake in regards to for example hapo sai or something like that did they tone him down

215
00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:13,000
hapo sai has one big episode that he's in and he sort of appears maybe once or twice after that and it's like

216
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:23,000
it's very nice that you're not constantly around because you're very annoying in kind of gross yeah but for example there's like this character

217
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:35,000
this character you've never heard of musashi miya oto the legendary sauceman musashi who is like this old guy and this like four and a

218
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:47,000
year old literally and he he's i expected him to be much more of a moot and roshie type right like being constantly trying to look under young girls

219
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:55,000
or whatever but he isn't really doing that less like one episode ways trying to sneak a peak or like two in a bath or whatever

220
00:39:55,000 --> 00:40:03,000
but that's about it other aside from that he's aside from being partially a goofball and old guy he's mostly matter of fact and just staying away from

221
00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:11,000
and like you said i mean he does cause trouble for yiba in a later up so we see he would eat a climb over the wall and

222
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:19,000
training it's training it's stale training it's training to see what's going on in the women's bath and then he gets

223
00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:26,200
found a yiba gets found out very quickly and then whoops you know that's probably like you said something

224
00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:31,640
that told down from the original materials which is the same with yiba himself like he like i said

225
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:38,440
there's some scenes where he walks in on psych and dressing or whatever but it's never like he never gets like oh i want to

226
00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:47,960
fondle this girl or whatever or say it's more like goku ish where it's like he just doesn't understand what the big problem is because he doesn't understand girls

227
00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:54,040
because he's never met a girls because his dad be dead like let him grow up in a fucking jungle fighting all the time

228
00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:57,880
only taught him the bare minimum aside from fighting against giant gorillas

229
00:40:57,880 --> 00:41:08,040
so yeah that's i mean that we learned that yiba has you know some like animal affinity though and you

230
00:41:08,040 --> 00:41:15,640
just got you know some some animal friends that join them so thankfully join him like a kaga Torah who's a tiger

231
00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:22,600
and shonosuke who is a vulture i guess vulture a buzzard or buzzard something like that who is

232
00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:31,800
unironically the MVP of the fucking show let's not do ourselves like shonosuke is like the guy like he

233
00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:40,040
like he pulls the uh he like saves today so many fucking times he's like a beast in battle in terms of

234
00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:46,760
versatility and everything he saves the ganks ass and a cry later on the show and uh things become

235
00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:56,680
really herring for a while and i got really upset and man uh this uh yeah his animal friends like

236
00:41:56,680 --> 00:42:00,760
yama's animal friends are great and they're more in the fights than i expected him to be i just

237
00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:05,160
expected him to be mascot characters and be like hey they're here and then maybe occasionally for

238
00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:10,760
the funny bits but now especially shonosuke is like in a lot of the fights because that is a very

239
00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:16,680
strong bird that can carry a lot of people on his back oh my god shonosuke was voiced by real

240
00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:27,640
hori cowl and the 93 adaptation he's literally Vegeta that's amazing yeah i mean he's more my

241
00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:34,280
manner than Vegeta i would say and he's you know um more friends with a band character but he is

242
00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:41,640
on the same power level definitely yeah yeah yeah yeah that's that's that's funny

243
00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:47,240
well you guys might want to go back and watch some clips of the 93 version just to hear him

244
00:42:47,240 --> 00:42:56,040
you're doing it in his voice and then overdup these sounds with parts of dragon ball like

245
00:42:56,040 --> 00:42:59,800
god i'm on clips and Vegeta opens a smile

246
00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:06,440
yeah you you have your project John i didn't know no bring bring that to the people of youtube

247
00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:15,240
like fine-o to fresh shonosuke yeah yeah good no also do advice for us all right that would be amazing

248
00:43:15,240 --> 00:43:20,760
as well uh but yeah he's definitely one of the best characters in this show but we got a lot of

249
00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:29,160
fun characters in this show like um aside from yeah i song goku slash yayba uh we have uh siaka

250
00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:36,520
main main girl side character running around doing all the adventures with him i like that she

251
00:43:36,520 --> 00:43:43,240
wasn't purely a damsel in distress like she helps out a lot i wonder how much of that is also

252
00:43:43,240 --> 00:43:51,960
up an upgrade from the original version um because you know she does she she helps taking down some

253
00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:58,200
of the enemies uh also with help from other people but still she's she's there see she cares

254
00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:04,440
an opera on for a while and everything and uh she she just you know is there and is a motivation

255
00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:11,160
also for the main character and everything i just you know i wish to be it for her to be more part

256
00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:16,360
of the actual finds in regard to fighting herself like having actual sword fights because she's also

257
00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:23,960
candle student so you just have that lying there that she's can also wield the sword and then

258
00:44:23,960 --> 00:44:29,480
the show doesn't really do anything with it there's like one scene where she actually has a

259
00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:36,920
sword fight with another character who appears um and that's kind of it i feel like that is a missed

260
00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:41,400
opportunity but that's not the fault of the show that's the fault of the source material where it's

261
00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:48,440
like why i mean different time like 30 years ago i guess strong female side protagonist not as

262
00:44:49,080 --> 00:44:57,960
wanted maybe as now but i feel like hey why would you introduce her as being also you know she could

263
00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:04,760
have just been the daughter but no she also studies the sword so why not have her actually be

264
00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:10,120
more part of the fights against especially the lower minions and there are a lot in this show like

265
00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:16,840
we haven't even um talked about like much of the main twist of this after like the first couple of

266
00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:24,280
episodes where only maru the main rival of yai ba uh chosen main rival

267
00:45:24,280 --> 00:45:33,960
yeah iva which is like you're my rival now what do you what yes i mean only maru like clearly

268
00:45:33,960 --> 00:45:40,440
outmatches yai ba in the beginning because yai ba has a very um not not not not a not a thinking

269
00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:45,480
thinking man's fighting style i guess he's very brash in everything he can set a reactive

270
00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:51,800
yeah very reactive he can sense auras and everything which is cool but uh he doesn't you know put much

271
00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:59,640
he's not planning ahead a lot and oh okay interesting so in the old adaptation only maru so there

272
00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:03,880
were some voice actors pulling double duty on both verses of the show because only maru was voiced

273
00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:10,760
by hori kawa and then voiced by kenshiro suda in one of the detective Conan movies awesome

274
00:46:15,160 --> 00:46:23,000
but yeah so um only maru yai ba goes to school it goes to they go to the training dojo at school and he

275
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:27,400
fights only maru and then decides oh this is my rival he's so strong i want to beat the guy

276
00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:35,800
and then uh you know they have a couple of run-ins and yai ba gets better and you know actually managed

277
00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:42,600
to beat them in their first serious fight um and i really like that only maru is the plague by

278
00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:52,760
nightmares of yai ba annoying him like wow okay he's like he's down he he definitely uh has now

279
00:46:52,760 --> 00:47:00,360
PTSD or something but um as the name foreshadows only maru turns into an actual only when he takes

280
00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:05,880
possession of an old family sort he finds in his basement and kind of becomes the super powerful

281
00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:11,960
guy who attacks the school and yai ba can't really beat him and everything uh and then

282
00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:18,120
only maru kind of decides on a whim to take over japan at the world i guess why not

283
00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:25,800
feels very set a day morning cartoon evil guy so that works they have this one cool fight

284
00:47:25,800 --> 00:47:32,440
through the city where they end up on the back of like a box truck and yai ba knocks him off and he's

285
00:47:32,440 --> 00:47:40,120
like yeah i got you and then gets his head smashed into a traffic sign it's yeah it's a very dynamic

286
00:47:40,120 --> 00:47:47,080
awesome fight with just this ridiculous resolution it's like okay you got you got what you deserved kid

287
00:47:47,080 --> 00:47:53,560
yeah but he still beat him in that fight and like it's yeah but he he's such a little s**t yes

288
00:47:53,560 --> 00:48:01,400
yes so he's a little dumb ass like and he has the best s**t eating grin like so you know yet it's

289
00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:07,560
like yeah the mate the guy you wanted to win one but then he got you know his come up in separate

290
00:48:07,560 --> 00:48:13,640
for being the little weirdo that he is it's like okay that's still pretty funny yeah absolutely like

291
00:48:13,640 --> 00:48:18,920
the show is very funny i mean a lot of it is old school humor right like we said it's very a lot

292
00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:24,840
reactions and everything and some there's but there's some also more subtle jokes in there i guess

293
00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:30,200
especially maybe if you know japan's history two degree because well first only maru summons a

294
00:48:30,200 --> 00:48:37,480
bunch of uh ogres like the eight ogres who turn out to be all the bunch of goofballs uh who can

295
00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:43,320
really do anything much aside from maybe two of them or three like kind of all animal theme two

296
00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:51,880
degree like all the uh enemy enemies in the show are not only you know uh jibas friends but also

297
00:48:51,880 --> 00:48:59,000
pretty much all the enemies run into the eight ogres are like uh we have uh snake we have a frog

298
00:48:59,000 --> 00:49:07,000
slash tote character we have a seek cucumber we have a starfish mantis i don't know what else a

299
00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:15,240
bat who was us there's a the spider spider like spider spider spider is the main is only maru's main

300
00:49:15,240 --> 00:49:23,320
guy like he's the right hand man i find his name infinitely hilarious because the localized name is

301
00:49:23,320 --> 00:49:30,120
mr spider which you know okay fine where the original name is kumo otoko which literally

302
00:49:30,120 --> 00:49:35,640
translates to spider man which hopes we can't use that name i guess yes and and for mr

303
00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:40,760
bat it's even funnier because in the subs they actually say bat guy instead of bat man

304
00:49:40,760 --> 00:49:50,440
it's really good and he yeah and he uh aside spider i guess snake although he gets taken

305
00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:59,560
out pretty quickly and um and bat like the the they they are the the capable people of these eight

306
00:49:59,560 --> 00:50:04,520
like they know what they're doing especially bat i would say like he's a force to be reckoned with

307
00:50:05,240 --> 00:50:12,360
for a while there and sports glorious english catchphrases uh also don't forget to say the full name

308
00:50:12,360 --> 00:50:21,560
of mr snake it's julias super podamist the third the third the very important yes

309
00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:29,960
it's really funny like i i i i i i liked all these bad guys the problem is like most of them

310
00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:37,000
of that first wave they're just goofballs they're just jobbers jobbers in the set every sense of the word

311
00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:41,560
like they don't know what the fuck they're doing but and some of them join with the main gang right like

312
00:50:41,560 --> 00:50:48,600
frog joints seek out comb your uh joins and they have a part parts to play in later battles uh

313
00:50:48,600 --> 00:50:54,520
partially which is fun star for sure is i'm yeah garzaim on and the shikyu comparable great characters

314
00:50:54,520 --> 00:51:00,680
yes especially yeah yeah and and you know seek your combers very cute and we run into starfish later on

315
00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:05,560
which is very anti-family which is very funny right yeah i forgot about that that was funny too

316
00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:11,320
yes yes it's there it's really nice like i think recurring characters uh so yeah we have

317
00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:17,000
this is pretty much the setup for the whole show like once only maro turns into an actual only

318
00:51:17,880 --> 00:51:27,560
it's like like the first half of the show is hey we got a first only maro has like this magic sword right

319
00:51:27,560 --> 00:51:34,760
uh and he has the orb of the i don't know the windcode fujin can whatever is the name of the sword i think

320
00:51:34,760 --> 00:51:42,040
and it has wind powers and then yabba gets himself the uh the lightning version of that the fun

321
00:51:42,040 --> 00:51:50,200
la version of that called raijin ken and um they uh he gets that from this old guy and that turns out

322
00:51:50,200 --> 00:52:00,840
to be um yamotomo sashi and uh then he and uh once he takes out all the ogres and develops also

323
00:52:00,840 --> 00:52:07,160
a new technique it's about storming only maro's castle and beating him and everything and that doesn't

324
00:52:07,160 --> 00:52:14,280
necessarily go the way he planned and then the second half of the show is okay uh only maro is now

325
00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:19,160
flying around in the sky so how do i get to him i need something to be able to fly because uh

326
00:52:19,160 --> 00:52:26,120
shonosuke as awesome as he can carry all of us so uh whatever i need uh power that can make me fly so

327
00:52:26,120 --> 00:52:33,800
i'm gonna get these mysterious seven dragon orbs uh or one of them is apparently the orb of the dragon

328
00:52:33,800 --> 00:52:42,200
god and uh so that can apparently make me fly so i'm gonna get that so we go have this this cross country

329
00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:47,000
adventure where we visit a bunch of different locations and at every location there's like this one

330
00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:56,760
fight with someone um usually a person uh one of the new set of bad guys um only maro's summon

331
00:52:56,760 --> 00:53:03,080
summons because after he's done with the eight ogres he summons warriors from the past or the

332
00:53:03,080 --> 00:53:09,000
souls of warriors from the past and has them reincarnate in animal bodies so we get like these cool

333
00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:13,640
you know first we get them in human form and then at a certain stage in the battle they transform

334
00:53:13,640 --> 00:53:22,200
into their animal form so it's all bloody roar up in here and pretty much yeah so on tropes uh and uh

335
00:53:22,200 --> 00:53:26,280
and out of these and that's why i come back to the initial stuff with the human all of these

336
00:53:26,280 --> 00:53:31,320
characters are characters from japanese history actually like or from or from japanese stories or

337
00:53:31,320 --> 00:53:37,800
whatever and myth and legend and whatever you have goi monoshikawa in there you know the famous thief

338
00:53:37,800 --> 00:53:44,680
and uh you have a bunch of other characters in there uh um wait who else is there jubei and you get

339
00:53:44,680 --> 00:53:52,200
jubei yagyu kojiro sasaki toki sada amaku so it's just a whole motley crew right and all of them

340
00:53:52,200 --> 00:53:58,440
have distinctive animal personality at a certain point i guess kind of matches the personality or the

341
00:53:58,440 --> 00:54:05,800
ostensible personality of the character from from legends or whatever so that's fun like there's

342
00:54:05,800 --> 00:54:12,280
a lot of fun probably a lot of in jokes that flew over our heads uh but that are probably fun for

343
00:54:12,280 --> 00:54:19,800
afforded japanese audience and um like i mean it's sort of like oh i know these names from other anime

344
00:54:19,800 --> 00:54:25,880
and from saying other games so you know there you you can at least go in knowing like oh i know

345
00:54:25,880 --> 00:54:30,920
this is a historical figure and you can kind of run with that absolutely and i mean you know we

346
00:54:30,920 --> 00:54:35,880
have had a bunch of other shows who did stuff like that for example zankoku basara was all about that

347
00:54:35,880 --> 00:54:45,320
so uh put your put your guns on man yeah put your especially datemo datemo no is not in this uh

348
00:54:45,320 --> 00:54:51,880
but still it's it's it's it's fun right and uh i feel the show does a pretty good job at keeping

349
00:54:51,880 --> 00:54:57,880
the fights vary due to all the different animal creatures like after the halfway point there's like

350
00:54:57,880 --> 00:55:05,000
an awesome battle in uh at sea and then in the sky and everything and it's all very like different

351
00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:12,120
also added to that that each orb um yeah iber collects has a different power one has fire powers one

352
00:55:12,120 --> 00:55:19,720
has water powers um one makes him big uh and uh one makes gives him the ability to transform like he

353
00:55:19,720 --> 00:55:25,720
and you know he uses all of the power that uh you know the opi received in the previous episode to fight

354
00:55:25,720 --> 00:55:32,040
in the battle of the next episode and and so on and that that's fun like uh you know there a bunch of

355
00:55:32,040 --> 00:55:36,840
those so that also keeps the fights varied and the visuals varied right because it looks all a

356
00:55:36,840 --> 00:55:43,160
bit different and uh you know the fights have to go a certain way and there some enemies that fight

357
00:55:43,160 --> 00:55:49,400
more directly and some of them that fight more stealthily and uh use backhanded methods and everything

358
00:55:49,400 --> 00:55:55,880
and yeah iber has to think of find a way around death think his way out of certain things and everything

359
00:55:55,880 --> 00:56:02,280
which is not necessarily his forte but sometimes other characters help him so and he's a spunky little

360
00:56:02,280 --> 00:56:09,880
uh kid so he you know he always tries to find a way out of this and yeah it's just it's just a fun

361
00:56:09,880 --> 00:56:16,520
a lot of fun things going on and um you know i wasn't even done with our main cast of characters like

362
00:56:16,520 --> 00:56:22,440
aside from uh uh uh uh uh Musashi who joins and becomes the one of the big main stays

363
00:56:22,440 --> 00:56:28,920
we also have uh Kojiro one of his old rivals there was his name right

364
00:56:28,920 --> 00:56:36,360
yeah yeah who has liked the sword that can who gets you know revived as a kind of zombie by only maro

365
00:56:36,360 --> 00:56:44,360
or spider rather and then um uh he has the sword that can extend uh which leads to some fun battles

366
00:56:44,360 --> 00:56:51,400
and also it leads to uh iber traveling back to the past and see like the past of Musashi and Kojiro

367
00:56:51,400 --> 00:56:58,840
and their rivalry which was also fun uh so uh the show has a lot of fun ideas even though a lot of it

368
00:56:58,840 --> 00:57:04,520
is like oh i've already seen this technically somewhere else it's very familiar in terms of what

369
00:57:04,520 --> 00:57:09,560
it's doing and where it's going with it. Kojiro in particular is funny to me because he comes back as

370
00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:19,800
a zombie and he's got like these reddish pink eyes for most of the show until like closer to the end

371
00:57:19,800 --> 00:57:25,240
just put some eye drops in and they're back to white and it's like what do you mean that's all it

372
00:57:25,240 --> 00:57:33,880
took? Modern medicine of course huh? But like that one really caught me off guard because you know

373
00:57:33,880 --> 00:57:40,520
oh that's just just looking that's how we know what he is. Oh okay there was that simple all right

374
00:57:40,520 --> 00:57:46,280
sure yeah yeah it's just another great joke in this show i feel like the show has you can't

375
00:57:46,280 --> 00:57:50,760
underestimate because i feel like a lot of it like i said is geared towards younger kids but they're

376
00:57:50,760 --> 00:57:58,360
really some really just just funny general audience jokes that just worked like you you have when they

377
00:57:58,360 --> 00:58:06,040
get trapped in these this this onsen hot springs thing by starfish and mantis and cq cumber and

378
00:58:06,040 --> 00:58:16,920
there is like frog like georosaimon talks about oh yeah we had this cast these capable characters

379
00:58:16,920 --> 00:58:22,680
and they were pretty strong guys and there's this guy called mantis and he's like the best actor and

380
00:58:22,680 --> 00:58:29,640
he has like the he can can transform himself and he can pose as other people as you mantis and he's

381
00:58:29,640 --> 00:58:34,760
just a blanket of his act and of his head and acts like the grandma from red riding hood

382
00:58:34,760 --> 00:58:44,040
they directly reference that actually sayaka commons on that it's really funny which is like you

383
00:58:44,040 --> 00:58:50,440
expect like oh what is he gonna do is he like gonna change his face like snaked it in in the previous

384
00:58:50,440 --> 00:58:57,400
episode no he's just he's just trying to act as a grad by even though he clearly is a giant mantis

385
00:58:57,400 --> 00:59:02,920
a lot of good jokes in this show get our complain like of course not every joke lands and some of it

386
00:59:02,920 --> 00:59:08,200
is very childish and very jump but there are some really good singers in there and i enjoyed

387
00:59:08,200 --> 00:59:16,360
talking about talking about funny names with snake i also loved chameleon bonaparte you know

388
00:59:16,360 --> 00:59:22,120
a little chameleon literally wearing like this this this outfit like typical nipoleon bonaparte

389
00:59:22,120 --> 00:59:30,360
outfit with the head and everything it's really good it's really good it's it's just stupid so silly

390
00:59:30,360 --> 00:59:35,880
very stupid and silly but also very funny if you if you can dig that kind of silly humor you're in

391
00:59:35,880 --> 00:59:42,760
for a treat uh it's a so is stock full of that like you're there and i was like oh okay this fits

392
00:59:42,760 --> 00:59:51,080
this is alright yeah absolutely uh i feel like the main attraction i guess of the show is the action

393
00:59:51,080 --> 00:59:57,640
though because this is straightforward one of the most classic shonen action shows you would see

394
00:59:57,640 --> 01:00:03,160
nowadays like it's just straightforward every episode pretty much every episode has either a

395
01:00:03,160 --> 01:00:10,840
training montage or a training episode is a training episode or has a fight between yiba and one of

396
01:00:10,840 --> 01:00:17,640
the main bad guys and yiba is doing pretty much all the big fights like he finishes all the enemies

397
01:00:17,640 --> 01:00:22,200
you have other characters joining in on the fights like you have moustache doing some of the stuff

398
01:00:22,200 --> 01:00:32,920
you have kodryu helping out um jube later uh you have nadeziko um the kind of fianc fiancé of yiba

399
01:00:32,920 --> 01:00:38,840
but that was a misunderstanding again very durable coated in terms of goku and shichi and how they

400
01:00:39,880 --> 01:00:42,360
and it's how that bethrodall happened

401
01:00:42,360 --> 01:00:52,440
though yiba is not like the mistake also is on her part and it's a bit more easy it's easier for

402
01:00:52,440 --> 01:00:59,800
yiba to wrinkle him like wiggle himself out of that because he you know she didn't ask like she

403
01:00:59,800 --> 01:01:07,800
just assumed that he understood what she met and and he didn't you know uh because of the word

404
01:01:07,800 --> 01:01:16,280
soba and but you kind of feel bad for her uh that he's kind of like still giving her hope in a way

405
01:01:16,280 --> 01:01:21,160
because you know he's gonna end up with sayaka at the end of this probably yeah i mean i still like

406
01:01:21,160 --> 01:01:27,720
nadeziko because absolutely fighting she's cool she's absolutely cool i again same with sayaka

407
01:01:27,720 --> 01:01:32,360
even though to a lesser degree because she actually takes part in the fights and she's a strong fighter

408
01:01:32,360 --> 01:01:37,720
but i feel like she had more of a like i for a lot of the side characters who can actually

409
01:01:37,720 --> 01:01:42,840
battle i wish they would actually be the ones who take out some of the bad guys but ultimately

410
01:01:42,840 --> 01:01:48,120
yiba is the only one who does that like you mean maybe it will see some of that in the next season

411
01:01:48,120 --> 01:01:54,120
maybe yeah yeah we we probably just need a bit more bad guys so that oh we had plenty of bad guys in

412
01:01:54,120 --> 01:01:59,720
this so i just yeah i had to prove that he is the one who gets all the orbs but you're right maybe

413
01:01:59,720 --> 01:02:08,760
we get some lesser um because you know in stuff like i don't know one piece bleech uh naruto you have

414
01:02:08,760 --> 01:02:14,360
your side characters and they have their own fights that they finish right and the characters that they

415
01:02:14,360 --> 01:02:20,120
beat and you don't really have that here like yiba is the one who is maybe pitted with the other

416
01:02:20,120 --> 01:02:26,600
characters against the bad guys but the final blow and everything usually usually i think there might

417
01:02:26,600 --> 01:02:32,520
be one or two exceptions from this but usually comes from yiba and it's like it's okay it's

418
01:02:32,520 --> 01:02:37,560
totally fine but i would have like to have you know more for the other characters maybe some personal

419
01:02:37,560 --> 01:02:42,280
fights in there but like like you said maybe that's gonna happen in the next season who knows um

420
01:02:42,280 --> 01:02:48,440
i'm still fun of having them there right even though it's not all of them all the time like

421
01:02:48,440 --> 01:02:54,280
the cast changes a bit here and there and at least they're always shaping out but again the main

422
01:02:54,280 --> 01:03:01,880
player is yiba but he's also the main character so that makes sense um but yeah it's it's fun some

423
01:03:01,880 --> 01:03:05,880
of the bad guys are even familiar to mousashi because you know he's been around for so long and

424
01:03:05,880 --> 01:03:13,560
knows some of them or whatever so that works and yeah like you said nadexico is cool and she also

425
01:03:13,560 --> 01:03:20,520
joins the orpund and whatever and this is awesome moment where yiba transforms into raft uh

426
01:03:21,480 --> 01:03:28,840
right nadexico is so happy that she can ride him it's like okay jesus all right i'm so bad

427
01:03:28,840 --> 01:03:37,480
but uh yeah fun times i mean i expect it there to be more of a rivalry between sia

428
01:03:37,480 --> 01:03:43,080
and her but it doesn't really get played up that much maybe because there's no time for it but it

429
01:03:43,080 --> 01:03:51,320
feels a little unspoken but yeah it's kind of there yeah yeah the show doesn't really deal with that

430
01:03:51,320 --> 01:03:57,800
much because they're they're battles to fight and it's like it's also not like this this like the romans

431
01:03:57,800 --> 01:04:04,680
quote unquote between uh sia kha and and yiba gets any real spot like there are these moments where

432
01:04:04,680 --> 01:04:10,760
they like they they they talk about it technically or it's like there's an important moment in the show

433
01:04:10,760 --> 01:04:17,080
where uh where um a yiba is like hey sia kha you actually love with me and it completely flusters

434
01:04:17,080 --> 01:04:22,600
and whatever and i think someone else is saying that to her too right and you you understand that

435
01:04:22,600 --> 01:04:31,800
she clearly likes him maybe even more uh for several reasons um but that's kind of the extent of it

436
01:04:31,800 --> 01:04:36,520
maybe that also there will be more of that in the second season because there is like this obvious

437
01:04:36,520 --> 01:04:43,560
hint at that she's gonna be put in peril in the second season due to a specific thing with uh

438
01:04:43,560 --> 01:04:48,360
with the then happens we'll talk about this later in the spoiler section but um i hope it's not

439
01:04:48,360 --> 01:04:55,320
gonna be a fucking uh nasa ko situation from team it's like hey sia kha at least gets to talk so that's

440
01:04:55,320 --> 01:05:04,520
nice yeah a lot actually like she's a sia kha sia kha has agency nasa ko does not yes sia kha is an

441
01:05:04,520 --> 01:05:12,600
actual character so then i can say off fucking nasa ko i like that girl but god damn did did the sh did

442
01:05:12,600 --> 01:05:20,760
that did deem slayer do her dirty in several ways i mean maybe she'll have actual stuff to do in the

443
01:05:20,760 --> 01:05:26,760
infinity castle but not so far john i've seen that movie the first are you serious we talked i

444
01:05:26,760 --> 01:05:33,080
told you that like she is not in that fucking in that first movie not like for like 10 seconds oh

445
01:05:33,080 --> 01:05:41,560
you'll find out when the tv's version rolls around oh so i'm i'm just a two year year i mean

446
01:05:41,560 --> 01:05:45,960
i mean now that you say that i don't know but i feel like i have ideas and that's

447
01:05:45,960 --> 01:05:53,960
yeah we'll see we'll see i mean i always expect that there to be something with her that she's

448
01:05:53,960 --> 01:06:01,000
gonna be the the damsel in that because you know we know what the main goal of of the main bad guy is

449
01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:10,760
but so far she's not really part of that fight so uh that's so lame yeah it's absolutely but i didn't

450
01:06:10,760 --> 01:06:17,480
i didn't i expected worse i didn't expect better from this considering how she was treated in the

451
01:06:17,480 --> 01:06:22,840
pre-reviews you know i hope for it to be better for you know a minute there because there was like

452
01:06:22,840 --> 01:06:30,600
this moment at the end of the the previous season where she actually you know gets to be in the sun

453
01:06:30,600 --> 01:06:37,880
and you know whatever and i thought oh now she can start and she started talking finally i'm

454
01:06:37,880 --> 01:06:42,520
saying oh okay now she's gonna become an actual character and then we go right back to her not being

455
01:06:42,520 --> 01:06:46,840
in the show at all i'm like okay all right fuck you two demon slayer

456
01:06:46,840 --> 01:06:51,880
i still like the show and i like that movie because it's visually arresting but

457
01:06:51,880 --> 01:06:58,280
you know just saying that's just one of the biggest betrayals in anime history

458
01:06:58,280 --> 01:07:07,800
but yeah uh back to this show okay um but yeah back to this show

459
01:07:07,800 --> 01:07:17,400
um the action is awesome because wit is just delivering uh just uh a visual feast in terms of

460
01:07:17,400 --> 01:07:22,600
battle choreography there's so much shit happening like you get a first glimpse of that in the op

461
01:07:22,600 --> 01:07:28,520
where so much shit is happening uh they even do a second version of this for the second half where

462
01:07:28,520 --> 01:07:34,120
you know the cast changes a bit and the goal of the uh of the cast changed a bit where what they have

463
01:07:34,120 --> 01:07:40,600
to do and uh same song but you know the visuals get adjusted in everything uh the final final

464
01:07:40,600 --> 01:07:47,800
version of the op even does the thing john hates where it just the the actual sound effects

465
01:07:47,800 --> 01:07:56,680
over the op i i just i know i love i left when that happened because like oh john hate is gonna hate this

466
01:07:56,680 --> 01:08:03,240
just let the song rock man i mean you had that for 23 episodes to be fair

467
01:08:03,880 --> 01:08:16,520
i know i don't i don't care but yeah so uh you get just a showcase of what all the crazy shit that

468
01:08:16,520 --> 01:08:20,840
is gonna happen in the battles in the op and sometimes the opi's look better than the show itself

469
01:08:20,840 --> 01:08:27,800
not so in this case even the second op even has some parts in it that kind of look worse than the

470
01:08:28,600 --> 01:08:35,640
the actual fights in the show because it gets a bit fray me i don't know when that is it's it's

471
01:08:35,640 --> 01:08:40,760
jumped out at me in the second version of that op where it's like you see all the resurrected bad guys

472
01:08:40,760 --> 01:08:47,080
one quick quickly after another and some of them feel like weirdly half animated still frames and

473
01:08:47,080 --> 01:08:51,160
something like that so that was weird at least the effort is here in the rest of the show it doesn't

474
01:08:51,160 --> 01:08:55,480
matter right so because all the fights in the show are fucking gorgeous and you have to like the

475
01:08:55,480 --> 01:09:01,080
super bright color palette and everything and you have a lot of squash and stretch technique applied

476
01:09:01,080 --> 01:09:07,400
where it's like the characters feel the way they move feels very western cartoonish like

477
01:09:07,400 --> 01:09:15,160
like loony toonsish in terms of all the crazy shit they do and they get set on fire and they look like

478
01:09:15,160 --> 01:09:19,880
a bird toast or whatever and stuff like that i have like these giant eyes you have like these

479
01:09:19,880 --> 01:09:26,600
animal characters with big eyes and everything and it looks all very kid-friendly you know and

480
01:09:26,600 --> 01:09:35,160
and something you necessarily don't see as much from show and animated stays just in terms of design

481
01:09:35,160 --> 01:09:42,200
and what the battles look like because you know these are very clean and grim and you know stuff like

482
01:09:42,200 --> 01:09:46,520
if you compare shit like this to attack on titan like it's like you can't believe that this is from

483
01:09:46,520 --> 01:09:52,360
the same studio just in terms of visuals at least in terms of visual style like character designs of

484
01:09:52,360 --> 01:09:58,040
course that because of the source material being different but you know also the color palette and

485
01:09:58,040 --> 01:10:03,480
the animation of the characters and everything it looks so different i feel like the only

486
01:10:03,480 --> 01:10:08,520
commonality you have between these two shows are the amazing tracking shots because there's several

487
01:10:08,520 --> 01:10:14,280
of those in yayba as well where you just follow the character especially yayba either if he's like

488
01:10:14,280 --> 01:10:21,720
sitting on shonowsky and riding through the sky or if he's surfing like a wave in the in the amazing

489
01:10:21,720 --> 01:10:27,240
water battle i talked about earlier or if he's just running across trucks or whatever and

490
01:10:27,240 --> 01:10:34,120
on a on a on a busy road or whatever there are a bunch of those in this show and it feels like oh

491
01:10:34,120 --> 01:10:39,000
yeah this feels like a witch show in that regard because i've seen this kind of awesome shit in the

492
01:10:39,000 --> 01:10:45,480
take on titan before you know from this perspective and the camera is very active it shifts around a lot

493
01:10:45,480 --> 01:10:53,560
it circles a lot around the characters and especially when onimaru and and yayba clash you know all

494
01:10:53,560 --> 01:10:58,920
their fights are awesome like the first fight when they're still like both in human form and then

495
01:10:58,920 --> 01:11:05,880
you have their clash at the top of the of the of onimaru's castle which is also amazing and they both

496
01:11:05,880 --> 01:11:12,040
you know onimaru's in his own uniform and at this point yayba also you know can't really technically

497
01:11:12,040 --> 01:11:17,480
transform into into a version of the thunder god i guess whatever looks like fucking sonic the

498
01:11:17,480 --> 01:11:27,800
hat jog on steroids yeah super skinny yeah yeah super sonic energy definitely live and learn so yeah

499
01:11:27,800 --> 01:11:35,640
this open your heart how many more sorry names i'm supposed to throw out here but yeah it's

500
01:11:35,640 --> 01:11:43,640
it's uh i i am all of me yes wait where's that from who shadow the headshot all right okay i've

501
01:11:43,640 --> 01:11:48,920
never played that but i intend to because they recently put out the remaster for that i guess

502
01:11:48,920 --> 01:11:58,120
or a positive play the version that oh no you're thinking of sonic ad auditions yes generations

503
01:11:58,120 --> 01:12:03,640
they show the head by playing the version with the patch we only have to get three endings to get the

504
01:12:03,640 --> 01:12:11,880
true ending instead of all 14 endings yeah not gonna do that but yeah so the fights are awesome and then

505
01:12:11,880 --> 01:12:17,240
we have at the tail end of the show we have another awesome multi stage fight where everyone unleashes

506
01:12:17,240 --> 01:12:25,240
their full power and everything and it's awesome so yeah it's just if you like if you're like

507
01:12:25,240 --> 01:12:30,120
it case the show gonna be for me that do heavily depends on how much you like shown an action

508
01:12:30,120 --> 01:12:37,560
shows especially if the action is kind of most of what the show is and not much else like i said

509
01:12:37,560 --> 01:12:41,640
their fun characters are there there are a lot of fun jokes in there and it looks very pretty but

510
01:12:41,640 --> 01:12:51,640
if you want to go for this you need to love action and i do john also does and the show delivers

511
01:12:51,640 --> 01:12:57,400
that in spades but if you're like hey i also want serious character development and some deep story

512
01:12:57,400 --> 01:13:04,040
or whatever and some super dramatic turn you're looking in the wrong place kind of the wrong case

513
01:13:04,040 --> 01:13:09,720
because this is a very old school show old school show even more so than the uchi ointura remake because

514
01:13:09,720 --> 01:13:16,440
it's more geared towards younger kids there's not much blood in the show as a bit of it um but it's very

515
01:13:16,440 --> 01:13:23,160
usually very light there's mistakes are technically high because in only maro wants to take over the

516
01:13:23,160 --> 01:13:30,040
world but the fights don't necessarily feel like it a lot of them are goofs because the enemies are so goofy

517
01:13:30,040 --> 01:13:36,600
and they look awesome like i said but it's not necessarily like oh my god everything right

518
01:13:36,600 --> 01:13:43,720
oh my god everything writes on this and yeah by winning this so it doesn't necessarily feel like it

519
01:13:43,720 --> 01:13:49,560
concerned the scale has changed at the end of the season maybe that will have a different feeling

520
01:13:49,560 --> 01:13:55,960
yeah sure we'll see yeah let's talk about that because um uh that's something that happens at the

521
01:13:55,960 --> 01:14:01,800
very end of the show and that uh let's say we're doing spoilers i mean we spoiled a bit here and there

522
01:14:01,800 --> 01:14:07,640
but we try to stay vague but to talk about this i guess we have to go into full spoilers uh so if you

523
01:14:07,640 --> 01:14:10,920
don't want to know anything more about the show and want to check it out for yourself please

524
01:14:10,920 --> 01:14:16,920
please do that john why can people watch it it is on Netflix i think there's i think that's pretty

525
01:14:16,920 --> 01:14:23,480
much exclusively where it is let me double check myself uh okay it's apparently on hulu as well but i

526
01:14:23,480 --> 01:14:29,560
i don't know about you i watched on Netflix there's a dub now too i didn't uh watch any of the dub you

527
01:14:29,560 --> 01:14:35,320
sure you like to try and check the you know check that out to see how the english voice acting is but

528
01:14:35,320 --> 01:14:42,280
yeah go and look at it later but yeah yeah okay yeah check out check it out on Netflix if you are so

529
01:14:42,280 --> 01:14:49,640
inclined uh oh yeah right before i go into spoilers yes um we talked about this being probably

530
01:14:49,640 --> 01:14:55,800
updated from the original there were like some things where it was obvious um the way you know

531
01:14:55,800 --> 01:15:00,680
characters have smartphones now and that was obviously not any ultra think another character

532
01:15:00,680 --> 01:15:06,920
you know one of the characters probably say i can mention the full version of instagram that

533
01:15:06,920 --> 01:15:13,480
also not wasn't in the show uh she also mentions that people stream all the time now to musically when

534
01:15:13,480 --> 01:15:20,360
he asks what you tape something from the v so these gonna be all new jokes yeah i mean the the first

535
01:15:20,360 --> 01:15:27,240
ending sequence is just a series of instagram pictures so yeah yeah so uh which is very funny

536
01:15:27,240 --> 01:15:31,880
the i also like the second one that focuses on the only minions that are having a hard time

537
01:15:33,080 --> 01:15:39,080
just to what that one is awesome is just one big musical number yeah yeah yeah i really i really like the

538
01:15:39,080 --> 01:15:45,080
the eddies of this of this show they're very fun um there's this one episode uh with a guy called

539
01:15:45,080 --> 01:15:50,920
karaoke jeans like this kappa and he has a playstation five in the show in the show i wonder what he had

540
01:15:50,920 --> 01:15:57,800
in the manga and the old adaption oh can you consider the time it probably would have been in

541
01:15:57,800 --> 01:16:05,640
any s or something yeah probably a famicomer super famicomer yeah yeah yeah so but i wonder i

542
01:16:05,640 --> 01:16:10,840
didn't think to look this up but there's like oh okay he's holding up a ps5 so wonder what it is

543
01:16:10,840 --> 01:16:19,960
in the old version maybe a maybe a genesis uh it could be yeah a good old mega drive yeah so yeah

544
01:16:19,960 --> 01:16:27,720
we'll see uh this is uh maybe he had a pc engine that would have been cool too but yeah so they

545
01:16:27,720 --> 01:16:33,400
did have literally did some some trying to adapt the two to more modern and modern version which

546
01:16:33,400 --> 01:16:38,680
other shows have done as well i feel it's doing that pretty successfully like yeah it doesn't it doesn't

547
01:16:38,680 --> 01:16:44,760
feel as intrusive as some other shows have tried to do it yeah it doesn't feel as intrusive and it

548
01:16:44,760 --> 01:16:49,960
also doesn't feel like it's it's running into the problem where it's like okay characters have

549
01:16:49,960 --> 01:16:56,840
smartphones no so why don't they just call that person at that moment you know to help out or whatever

550
01:16:56,840 --> 01:17:00,840
but you know like i said the show is focusing on yeah by being the problem solver anyway

551
01:17:00,840 --> 01:17:06,760
yeah that was my problem with the banana fish adaptation yeah so i'm gonna push that some problems

552
01:17:06,760 --> 01:17:13,160
with that and not as a greaches as problems that had recently but that was thanks to amazon

553
01:17:14,200 --> 01:17:26,280
hey yo love AI slopedups um fantastic uh but yeah so spoilers ahead in the final the final final

554
01:17:26,280 --> 01:17:33,240
stretch of the episodes first of all the show does a thing where it pretends to kill of side characters

555
01:17:33,240 --> 01:17:40,040
one by one yeah uh if it had stuck to one of them i would have bought it for longer because i was

556
01:17:40,040 --> 01:17:46,680
very distraught when they trapped my boy shonoskin at room with lava oh that with that one was that was

557
01:17:46,680 --> 01:17:53,080
particular mean when it was just him i was like oh my god did they actually like to take kill him

558
01:17:53,080 --> 01:17:58,120
you know you don't see it you don't see it burn them burning in my life but i also don't expect that

559
01:17:58,120 --> 01:18:03,000
from a kids show so it was like oh my god did they actually because they really take the time for

560
01:18:03,000 --> 01:18:10,760
like yeah i were to be like more in everything it's like fuck but then one by one the other characters

561
01:18:10,760 --> 01:18:15,320
also fall to the death or whatever it's like they're not gonna kill all the entire cast and this kind of

562
01:18:15,320 --> 01:18:22,120
show yeah when they started doing that i was like yeah yeah so there was i mean i'm happy everyone

563
01:18:22,120 --> 01:18:28,920
survived but it's like they created some nice tension in the moment but yes but it was like as soon

564
01:18:28,920 --> 01:18:36,680
as they like got rid of like uh uh it was uh uh get rosymon and some of the other characters like okay

565
01:18:36,680 --> 01:18:41,400
all right i know what you're doing here but it was still fun even though you know where it was going

566
01:18:41,400 --> 01:18:47,720
and it was all the tests and everything so i really really liked that i liked that in the fight uh

567
01:18:47,720 --> 01:18:54,040
yeah i but gets to use like the whole set of his office dragon or powers whatever that kept the fight

568
01:18:54,040 --> 01:19:00,760
really varied uh like i always like when i i let's put it a different way i hated when characters gain

569
01:19:00,760 --> 01:19:07,720
new abilities and then they use them once exactly once and never use them again and i was afraid to

570
01:19:07,720 --> 01:19:12,600
show would be doing that because that was kind of the thing where it's like okay character gets

571
01:19:12,600 --> 01:19:16,440
yeah i beggin some new orp uses it in the next episode and i guess he knew one and he used the dead

572
01:19:16,440 --> 01:19:21,080
and he uses that in the next episode and then you know and i was like oh god will this be once he gets

573
01:19:21,080 --> 01:19:26,600
to dragon orp is not gonna use any of them no no the final battle of the season against only maru he

574
01:19:26,600 --> 01:19:33,640
uses all of them and it's amazing like it's cool like there's all i wanted from that fight like him

575
01:19:33,640 --> 01:19:38,200
just unleashing all of his his full potential like eventually eventually it eventually wears him out but

576
01:19:38,200 --> 01:19:45,160
it was great and then we get a last minute final boss reveal um which gave me now a two flashbacks

577
01:19:45,160 --> 01:19:51,960
because the that show did that as well with the same god you're a bad guy you're right i didn't even

578
01:19:51,960 --> 01:19:59,800
yes last minute kaga ya from the moon um coming down with her spaceship with with all her

579
01:19:59,800 --> 01:20:08,680
bunny lackeys and uh she apparently has a grudge grudge long centuries long beef with the with the

580
01:20:08,680 --> 01:20:12,680
dragon god and since yaba holds that power now she's intent on taking him down

581
01:20:14,680 --> 01:20:20,120
like she's itano circling the shit out of yaba in one c which looked amazing yeah

582
01:20:20,120 --> 01:20:27,240
but but yeah so kind of i guess the fight between yaba and onamaru's on hold for now because on

583
01:20:27,240 --> 01:20:35,240
namaru's like also like uh i'm gonna take out that wench first and uh because she's uh standing

584
01:20:35,240 --> 01:20:42,360
between me and my goal for world domination so apparently it's gonna be the next season full blown

585
01:20:42,360 --> 01:20:48,040
war between kaga ya and onamaru and yaba's gonna be in the middle of it for us he has to get the

586
01:20:48,040 --> 01:20:54,040
stamina up but you know that's probably gonna be the next season so that was that was a surprise

587
01:20:54,040 --> 01:20:59,320
i didn't see that coming it's like oh okay yeah they dropped down on us and like the second of the last

588
01:20:59,320 --> 01:21:05,480
episode i was like unless they're gonna do this in two episodes there's gotta be a second season

589
01:21:05,480 --> 01:21:10,760
and they out in announced that i was like okay all right so they can have given some time to breathe

590
01:21:10,760 --> 01:21:16,760
yeah we get to be continued screen at the ending of this and there is already an entry for the second

591
01:21:16,760 --> 01:21:23,160
season on several sides no no date yet when that is gonna hit actually but it's happening so

592
01:21:23,160 --> 01:21:29,480
i'm always glad when that is the case because i never know with wit if they won't do that or whatever

593
01:21:29,480 --> 01:21:36,040
so and i don't know if they're working on it on the second season but i assume they are so um we'll

594
01:21:36,040 --> 01:21:42,760
say how much debt covers because uh like john said in the beginning after that arc there's still more to

595
01:21:42,760 --> 01:21:48,920
come and we don't know if they're gonna cover all of this yeah because all the arcs that come after

596
01:21:48,920 --> 01:21:57,720
this are significantly short because the first three arcs here that we covered are like the big

597
01:21:57,720 --> 01:22:04,680
bulk of it and then there's just like other smaller shorter stories after that i guess i mean

598
01:22:04,680 --> 01:22:10,600
there still has to be the resolution between uh jayba and oni maru because that's still gonna be

599
01:22:10,600 --> 01:22:19,320
brewing in the back yeah but yeah so and maybe they'll team up to to beat kagaya because they have to

600
01:22:19,320 --> 01:22:25,400
at some point like probably that would make sense put their rivalry on the side right because like we

601
01:22:25,400 --> 01:22:30,120
can can i can't beat her alone you can't beat her alone so we have to team up and they

602
01:22:30,120 --> 01:22:35,000
begrudgingly like become allies that would be a take that would be something that could happen

603
01:22:35,000 --> 01:22:41,080
so we'll see interesting interesting setup like interesting last minute twist where it's like oh no

604
01:22:41,080 --> 01:22:48,680
no no we're gonna do this also suddenly the show gets super dark uh it's like this like like like

605
01:22:48,680 --> 01:22:57,960
uh kaya um uh it's like you needs this soul the the soul serum which also which gives her eternal

606
01:22:57,960 --> 01:23:07,160
youth and also her powers or i guess her powers come with her youth and um so she like abducks a bunch

607
01:23:07,160 --> 01:23:15,800
of earthwomen uh and not all of them are suited to her needs but the one that is she like sucks

608
01:23:15,800 --> 01:23:22,360
dry like she literally sucks the life out of her the youth out of that woman and that is a really

609
01:23:23,000 --> 01:23:29,720
that scene is straight out of a horror movie that was fucking terrifying did expect some unsettling yes

610
01:23:29,720 --> 01:23:36,680
i didn't expect something so dark from this show it was awesome whoa holy shit what's happening uh if

611
01:23:36,680 --> 01:23:42,040
that is the tone we're going for with with the next season i'm really interested to see what's

612
01:23:42,040 --> 01:23:49,000
what's what's gonna happen with this i mean dragon ball got you know got a a bit darker and bloodier

613
01:23:49,720 --> 01:23:55,960
the longer it progressed so that might happen to jayba as well interesting very interesting because

614
01:23:55,960 --> 01:24:03,640
so far every enemy that that jayba also be doesn't like they get pulverized technically and the soul

615
01:24:03,640 --> 01:24:09,240
goes back to the afterlife and the animal survives and whatever so it's not like he's cutting them apart

616
01:24:09,240 --> 01:24:15,720
really like uh i wonder if it gets a bit more bloody in the second season it doesn't have to but

617
01:24:15,720 --> 01:24:21,960
i could see that happening considering that that scene at the end of this like that even freak spider

618
01:24:21,960 --> 01:24:33,560
out so uh we got a vampire space vampire woman on the horror hands um but yeah uh fun show uh i

619
01:24:33,560 --> 01:24:40,360
really liked it i thought it was a breezy watch it's like i said it's not deep it's not it doesn't have a

620
01:24:40,360 --> 01:24:47,720
really in super engaging story but if you want to have a good Saturday morning throwback cartoon show

621
01:24:47,720 --> 01:24:53,320
cartoon action show with a lot of varied fights with a lot of cool enemy designs and everything

622
01:24:53,320 --> 01:24:59,480
and some funny jokes and all of that and it looks really good is really well animated then this is it

623
01:24:59,480 --> 01:25:05,880
check it out because just fun time uh we told you where to watch it go to next Netflix if that is

624
01:25:05,880 --> 01:25:12,360
uh sounds like something you would enjoy uh but also don't expect anything beyond what we just

625
01:25:12,360 --> 01:25:18,440
told you about it like there is not that much to this show it's just you what you see is what you get

626
01:25:18,440 --> 01:25:23,800
and that's pretty much it but what you get is pretty fun sometimes you just need that every once in a

627
01:25:23,800 --> 01:25:32,200
while yeah yeah just just a nice nice uh simple show to look at and enjoy and have a good laugh once in a

628
01:25:32,200 --> 01:25:40,520
while and that is what the advice yes so that's it for our uh final review of the season but

629
01:25:40,520 --> 01:25:43,160
there's still one little thing we have to do

630
01:25:43,160 --> 01:25:58,360
best of the season so yeah best of the season uh we have i think we have the most

631
01:25:58,360 --> 01:26:07,800
reviewed shows we've had in quite a while like i feel like there was a lot like if you count the

632
01:26:07,800 --> 01:26:15,080
quick and the dead stuff on my end i definitely for me it's like the most uh wide selection of shows

633
01:26:15,080 --> 01:26:22,200
i could pick from in terms of best of the season material and uh i just if it's okay for you Jon

634
01:26:22,200 --> 01:26:26,840
because i've already already in flow i'm just gonna go ahead and tell you what i picked and then go

635
01:26:26,840 --> 01:26:32,920
for yeah so both kaiju number eight and dandadan season two were loads of fun i just talked about them

636
01:26:32,920 --> 01:26:37,080
in the quick the quick and the dead but both of them already got a best of the season award for me

637
01:26:37,080 --> 01:26:41,640
so they're out uh they don't have to get it and we had a lot of other strong contenders so

638
01:26:41,640 --> 01:26:47,400
i'm just like okay that's it's great that takes a lot of my shoulders that i that they

639
01:26:47,400 --> 01:26:53,160
they are not serious contenders in that regard because they already got their their dues

640
01:26:54,040 --> 01:27:02,440
so sacomo today's jayba and the samadaytikaro died were also good or very good but i'm pretty sure they

641
01:27:02,440 --> 01:27:08,200
haven't or they maybe haven't delivered their best yet and also there are other new more seasons coming

642
01:27:08,200 --> 01:27:13,480
so they got another chance so i'm like hey sure this could be like it could be jayba the next season that

643
01:27:13,480 --> 01:27:19,240
comes out depending on how that battle goes or it could be new season ok kamo today's or i said in

644
01:27:19,240 --> 01:27:23,560
my review of the samadaytikaro died that i still wait i'm waiting for the other shoe to drop where it's

645
01:27:23,560 --> 01:27:29,640
like okay i still waiting for the show to actually tell me what it's really about or what it what

646
01:27:29,640 --> 01:27:35,320
where it wants to go and that hasn't happened yet some waiting definitely waiting for that so that

647
01:27:35,320 --> 01:27:39,000
leaves me with two main contenders this season and surely and talk of the original sin

648
01:27:39,000 --> 01:27:45,880
and i loved and surely i really did but i also think the second third of that show was not as

649
01:27:45,880 --> 01:27:51,800
captivating as the other two and it really rushed through its material nitpicks yes but they're

650
01:27:51,800 --> 01:27:58,120
there still recommend to everyone to watch that show who wants a bit of a different thing from anime

651
01:27:58,120 --> 01:28:02,840
from anime and more you know adaption of classic literature and everything which we don't get

652
01:28:02,840 --> 01:28:09,240
that much in this medium and also one of the nice throwback that goes into other direction than

653
01:28:09,240 --> 01:28:18,760
jayba is doing because you know and surely is also a new adaption of much older material so yeah

654
01:28:19,480 --> 01:28:26,600
it was good but i'm gonna give it to tako piece original sin because that show took me on a wild dark

655
01:28:26,600 --> 01:28:33,080
and insane ride that i didn't see coming very emotional very hard wrenching um it had some interesting

656
01:28:33,080 --> 01:28:38,680
and important things to say it looked good and it grabbed me by the hard strings and didn't let go

657
01:28:38,680 --> 01:28:44,680
very much deserving of the best of the season award and i recommend all of you to watch it if you

658
01:28:44,680 --> 01:28:51,640
can stomach it's plenty serious in dark moments um which the show kind of is entirely that

659
01:28:51,640 --> 01:29:00,280
but it also got a lot of heartwarming moments too uh and smart and uh yeah like i said has a

660
01:29:00,280 --> 01:29:07,080
lot of interesting and important things to say so yes tako b original sin my best of the season

661
01:29:07,080 --> 01:29:16,920
for summer season 2025 done what is your pick well we just talked about jayba and it was great

662
01:29:16,920 --> 01:29:23,880
but if we know we know it's coming back so like you said there could be something even better

663
01:29:23,880 --> 01:29:29,320
than what we saw you're seeing with sakamoto day season three is season three part three season two

664
01:29:29,320 --> 01:29:35,160
it's we know it's coming back we know that for sure so it'll it'll have it to moment again

665
01:29:36,680 --> 01:29:44,280
a cc how about rent a girlfriend it's not it's not even in the running it's out of

666
01:29:44,280 --> 01:29:50,360
the right I would have been surprised if it was like if you said well i like parts of this season it's

667
01:29:50,360 --> 01:29:58,200
like what i mean i like that jizuru and ruka showed themselves to not be stupid and easily

668
01:29:58,200 --> 01:30:04,760
manipulated by mommy that was probably the best part everything else was so i actually i don't

669
01:30:04,760 --> 01:30:09,080
think i covered that when i talked about it when in the reviews i guess i'll talk about it real quick

670
01:30:09,080 --> 01:30:16,040
there's a moment where mommy says to ruka what if i told you you can have kazu yeah right now

671
01:30:16,040 --> 01:30:21,720
and ruka's like what shut up i'm not an idiot and i'm sitting there like

672
01:30:21,720 --> 01:30:29,800
thank you thank you for not being just i know you're crazy for this other character but thank you

673
01:30:29,800 --> 01:30:35,080
for exercising some level of intelligence yes the show is hot garbage otherwise so

674
01:30:35,080 --> 01:30:45,000
i i think i'll give it to city the animation because there's you know as it stands it is a complete

675
01:30:45,000 --> 01:30:51,160
adaptation but it sound like rye might be going back to the drawing board so who knows maybe i

676
01:30:51,160 --> 01:30:57,160
might come back eventually but as for now it is complete for what it is and it was so much fun

677
01:30:57,160 --> 01:31:03,720
it was so colorful and so crazy and bombastic that i think it deserves it and if it comes back who

678
01:31:03,720 --> 01:31:09,320
knows maybe it could deserve it again but you know that that would be a long ways down the road i

679
01:31:09,320 --> 01:31:17,080
think long enough for it to let other shows come in and have their shot too so yeah i thought it was

680
01:31:17,080 --> 01:31:23,880
really great and some of kioanis best work i mean and they always do great work so for sure i'm glad

681
01:31:23,880 --> 01:31:31,720
that they're back at their feet oh yeah definitely always look forward to when i see their name attached

682
01:31:31,720 --> 01:31:40,200
to a show so and this was no exception cool so yeah check out both these shows and if you can

683
01:31:40,200 --> 01:31:44,280
