00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:30,880
Hello and welcome to a new episode of Anime Brinthrees. We are your spy

3
00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:35,880
"Tacular hosts." I am John. And I am CC and when there's just too much

4
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:39,960
to anime to watch, we've got you covered. Today we return to our favorite

5
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:44,800
patchwork family of spies, assassins and aspers to discuss the new season of

6
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:49,440
spy family. And of course, since it's our season finale, we will name our choices

7
00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:53,920
for best anime of the season. Before all of that, there are a couple of many reviews

8
00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:58,240
we have to tackle in the quick and the dead. So pack your most convincing disguise.

9
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:02,240
Don't forget your pre-cocked dog because who can do without one these days?

10
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:04,880
We don't pass apart. We'll be right back.

11
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:09,640
[music]

12
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:17,120
Oh yeah, as we said, we will be doing less full reviews of shows that only one

13
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:22,480
of us watched. So of course we also have a couple more shows than usual in the

14
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:27,280
quick and the dead, especially on my side of things. So I have three shows. John has

15
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:32,240
two. So I'm gonna start us off. And the first show that I checked out and I'm not

16
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:36,040
gonna do a full review of is "Sanda."

17
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:37,800
Oh that show.

18
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:43,360
Yes, 12 episodes from "Padawita Gaki," the author of "Beastars." "Beastars"

19
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:48,600
came before this. "Sanda" came after. But it's already finished, which is great.

20
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:54,760
It's good to hear. So hopefully we get a full anime adaptation of this, which I don't think

21
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:59,160
the first season covers everything if I'm honest. It would be weird if it really ended

22
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:06,000
where it ended. So I doubt that's gonna be it because there are still a lot of mysteries

23
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:13,120
to uncover in everything. Even though technically the main setup and concede of the that the

24
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:20,120
show starts with, is it kinda wrapped up in a way? But I'm getting ahead of myself. So what

25
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:24,240
is the show about if you listen to the sneak peak you already know? So it's about this

26
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:32,560
girl called Fu Yumura who recently lost her best friend, Ono. And she's trying to get

27
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:41,080
her back. And what else to do than to step a classmate to make that happen?

28
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:46,040
Yes, that makes sense. Yeah, that makes sense. No, well, it makes more sense than you think

29
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:52,680
because that classmate turns out is the descendant of Santa Claus because naturally. And if he

30
00:02:52,680 --> 00:03:01,760
has red-honoured clothes, he turns into a version of Santa Claus, I guess, above version, a

31
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:10,720
daddy version. And with special powers and everything that matches what Santa can do,

32
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:16,240
for example, he's impervious to heat because Santa has to climb through the chimney, right?

33
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:21,160
And some of those are lit. So it makes sense that he's impervious to that. He can sprout

34
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:29,360
these slay runners from his feet that he can use like swords for some reason. But that's

35
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:38,680
what he does. And yeah, so a bunch of weird shit that he can do. And well, his mission,

36
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:45,840
yes, that is what would be is to fulfill the wishes of children. And since Fuyumura, like,

37
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:52,520
after removing the curse that kept that shit unbottled or whatever, his powers restrained

38
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:59,480
after she lifts it, who put that curse there, we don't still don't know. But after she

39
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:07,240
lifts that curse, he is restored to his powers, has to come to the terms with sometimes living

40
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:17,280
and looking like an old man, getting far-sighted because of his age and stuff like that.

41
00:04:17,280 --> 00:04:22,920
So yeah, it's a wacky show. It's a really wacky show, but it's really fun. And I mean, it's

42
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:28,320
kind of par for the core, if you've seen B-stars, which is also a very weird show with a lot

43
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:33,440
of interesting things it does and unusual things. So it's not like a straightforward

44
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:39,000
show, and thing where everything. There are some battles in this, some action-heavy battles,

45
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:44,480
but really only two. And it's technically the same people fighting against each other.

46
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:52,880
It's Santa, a Sanda, and the headmaster of the school, Oshibu, who is like this weird,

47
00:04:52,880 --> 00:05:01,160
boah, this the weirdest creepiest motherfucker on the planet is like this guy who is 92 years

48
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:06,840
old or something, but since this is a world where everyone is obsessed with youth, he has

49
00:05:06,840 --> 00:05:14,360
like done several plastic surgeries to himself, so that his face is kept young. Everything

50
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:19,800
in his body is artificial except for his hands because for some reason medical tech hasn't

51
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:28,080
found a way to replace hands or to rejuvenate them properly apparently. So his hands are

52
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:33,360
the only old thing on his body and they look like wrinkled and ancient and everything else

53
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:39,160
looks super young, but he also is super like I said, super creepy because he has so much,

54
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:45,960
I don't know, collagen and I don't know what else and Botox and shit in his face that he

55
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:51,440
can't really do anything but smile anymore. And of course he doesn't feel any pain really

56
00:05:51,440 --> 00:06:00,200
anymore and it's, ah, that guy is one of the creepiest anime antagonists I've ever seen.

57
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:04,080
He's really fucked up, like he's basically a cyborg, he has like artificial eyes and everything.

58
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:10,240
So he's there and he says he wants to protect the innocence of the children and whatever,

59
00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:16,000
but of course he has very sinister motives for everything he does. And yeah, so he ends

60
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:25,280
a santa go edit several times, but mainly this is about, ah, Fuyumura, the girl, it's like

61
00:06:25,280 --> 00:06:32,040
a weirdo because of course she stepped santa to get him to turn to pause. She doesn't really

62
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:36,600
think a lot of her plans through like she gets really freaked out once she realized that

63
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:41,240
he doesn't immediately turn into Santa Claus after she steps him and he is starting to bleed

64
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:47,200
out and she's like, holy shit, what have I done? Yeah, maybe, I don't, hmm, maybe there were

65
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:54,080
other ways. Now why would you think three steps ahead? Yeah, she's a real, you know, should

66
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:58,960
first ask questions later kind of girl. Literally, that's what she does. She also, also throw grenades

67
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:07,840
first, step first, ah, like strap a bomb to her own body first, ah, stuff like that to get

68
00:07:07,840 --> 00:07:13,440
what she wants. And, ah, yeah, so santa has his hands full trying to keep her in check and

69
00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:19,200
fulfill her wish of, you know, reuniting her with her, ah, friend to everyone has declared

70
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:24,720
dead, but she's the only one who believes that, oh no, isn't dead yet. So that's one of

71
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:29,960
the main driving plots and there's a really, that's definitely kind of resolved by the end

72
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:37,680
of this first season, dead plot thread. So that's really interesting. And, ah, yeah, it's

73
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:43,560
a super fun show like it's crazy, it's wild, it's wacky, it looks the part because it's animated

74
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:50,240
by Sainsaru who have always a very unique style and very partially very experimental that

75
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:55,500
also shines in this, ah, through, ah, shines through in this show, very sketchbook-esque in

76
00:07:55,500 --> 00:08:00,800
certain parts with a lot of thick sharp, like outlines, very nice color work, ah, especially

77
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:04,440
in Santa's first transformation where everything is black and white except for the red blood

78
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:10,600
stain on his chest wound and these high contrasts, ah, scenes with other colors, but definitely

79
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:17,240
with red several times come, ah, like, ah, happen in the show, ah, a lot, ah, the soundtrack

80
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:21,920
is very interesting as it contains many instrumental remixes of famous Christmas songs, sometimes

81
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:27,400
almost unrecognizable because they have been made to sound, ah, more menacing or triumphant

82
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:32,160
or what have you, like, there's a dark version of joy to the world, for example, the hunter

83
00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:38,000
is a foot, it's really cool, it's like, really, it's like, it's like, it's some kind of minor

84
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:43,900
ah, transposition or whatever, it sounds like, really, really menacing, like, every time that

85
00:08:43,900 --> 00:08:49,000
theme plays, you're like, oh, no, that is not, no, no, no, that's not joy that's coming

86
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:55,680
to the world, absolutely not, so it's like, like, the show has fun with the theme, like,

87
00:08:55,680 --> 00:09:02,920
there's a lot of funny things, like, Sanda trying to, to, ah, to reckon with a lot of the emotions

88
00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:09,800
that come with being Santa and how those are not necessarily, ah, don't necessarily sync

89
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:16,280
up with his own emotions as Santa, as the young person, ah, because they have different

90
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:23,000
goals, like, Sanda has romantic feelings for Fuyumura, but when he is Santa Claus, he feels

91
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:27,840
kind of sick inside when he feels these things because he can feel these things, because

92
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:33,640
Santa, ah, before Santa, all children are equal and the only thing he cares about is making

93
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:36,000
them happy, right?

94
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:42,720
So that doesn't make sense so that he would be, like, have feelings for one specific girl.

95
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:48,200
So it's like this weird thing where it's like, he is like this kid trapped in the body of

96
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:56,360
an old guy, ah, but, ah, he, you know, an old guy at a Santa Claus and has very specific,

97
00:09:56,360 --> 00:10:03,160
a very specific mission and very specific feelings towards certain people, good and bad.

98
00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:11,640
And that gets wacky on crazy down the road, also very much like with, ah, with Paru Itagaki's

99
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:13,560
other work we've seen.

100
00:10:13,560 --> 00:10:20,160
The series is not without its sexual undertones, which is kind of uncomfortable considering

101
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:25,440
that these are still kind of, you know, young children, but, you know, that if, you know,

102
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:29,400
when you hit puberty, certain things happen.

103
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:35,360
And if you have feelings for a classmate, so to speak, that is a legit, legit topic to

104
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:36,360
tackle.

105
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:40,800
It might be uncomfortable, but that's definitely something that's in there because, oh

106
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:45,920
no, as it turns out, the friend that Fuyumura tries to bring back, definitely had romantic

107
00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:48,440
feelings for Fuyumura.

108
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:54,280
And Fuyumura not necessarily had the same feelings for her.

109
00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:59,000
And that becomes a point of contention, of course, but there is like this moment, and it's

110
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:03,180
like this, this world is very weird, there are almost no children left because of the

111
00:11:03,180 --> 00:11:10,180
declining birth rates.

112
00:11:10,180 --> 00:11:13,180
Hey, ah, ah, hello Japanese show.

113
00:11:13,180 --> 00:11:16,500
The specter Shinzo Abe looks ever presently.

114
00:11:16,500 --> 00:11:24,020
Yeah, but in a different way, because unlike a show where this is like, hey, getting children

115
00:11:24,020 --> 00:11:28,180
is the best and everything, this show puts a very sinister spin on this where like the

116
00:11:28,180 --> 00:11:35,620
society, like I said, is obsessed with children, but only the way when there are, you know, youthful

117
00:11:35,620 --> 00:11:42,460
and putting them on this pedestal, but also not respecting their wishes, like instrumentalizing

118
00:11:42,460 --> 00:11:43,460
them.

119
00:11:43,460 --> 00:11:52,340
And also there is like this, this fucked up thing where all the marriages in the, like,

120
00:11:52,340 --> 00:11:57,780
getting married and having kids in this country is mandatory.

121
00:11:57,780 --> 00:12:02,860
And the government decides for you who you are married and who you have children with.

122
00:12:02,860 --> 00:12:09,420
So this is a very handmade sale kind of thing going on here and it's very fucked up and

123
00:12:09,420 --> 00:12:13,220
it's clear that some people would like to break out of that.

124
00:12:13,220 --> 00:12:20,980
Sanda also has already a fiance who is, who is very cool, but that also causes also thrown

125
00:12:20,980 --> 00:12:26,820
in the mix a bit and, you know, when you, you kind of, not necessarily get a love triangle

126
00:12:26,820 --> 00:12:30,900
because that doesn't really happen in the first season between Sanda, Fuyumura and Nico,

127
00:12:30,900 --> 00:12:35,900
which is his fiance, but you can see that happening down the line because, you know, he has

128
00:12:35,900 --> 00:12:39,460
deadly feelings for Fuyumura always had them apparently.

129
00:12:39,460 --> 00:12:44,340
And only in a couple of episodes he starts realizing that he might have feelings for Nico

130
00:12:44,340 --> 00:12:45,340
too.

131
00:12:45,340 --> 00:12:49,860
She definitely has feelings for him in a way, but she's also weird girl.

132
00:12:49,860 --> 00:12:52,700
So who knows if that will stick.

133
00:12:52,700 --> 00:13:00,580
So we'll see, but yeah, this, this series just, you know, there is getting back to the sexual

134
00:13:00,580 --> 00:13:02,260
undertone stuff.

135
00:13:02,260 --> 00:13:07,940
Definitely when Oh no, it's puberty overnight because children are not allowed or can't

136
00:13:07,940 --> 00:13:11,860
sleep until they hit the age of 18.

137
00:13:11,860 --> 00:13:19,700
If they sleep a full night before they hit the age of 18, they hit puberty immediately overnight.

138
00:13:19,700 --> 00:13:24,980
That is too much for, might be too much for their brains and might kill them and whatever.

139
00:13:24,980 --> 00:13:31,020
So this kind of stuff happens to Oh no, and she immediately turns into a full grown woman

140
00:13:31,020 --> 00:13:34,220
overnight technically with all that entails.

141
00:13:34,220 --> 00:13:39,420
And the dream she has while that happens is very explicit.

142
00:13:39,420 --> 00:13:49,420
Like I don't think I've seen something this explicit in an anime in a while in regards to,

143
00:13:49,420 --> 00:13:55,140
you know, what it depicts and everything, there's no nudity or anything, but you know, the implications

144
00:13:55,140 --> 00:13:59,140
are very text on the page.

145
00:13:59,140 --> 00:14:02,180
So that was surprising.

146
00:14:02,180 --> 00:14:03,700
So the show definitely has that.

147
00:14:03,700 --> 00:14:09,100
And I think we have, I mean, we have seen something like that in B stars where there are some

148
00:14:09,100 --> 00:14:13,300
scenes with high sexual tension, I guess, which is a different kind of uncomfortable in

149
00:14:13,300 --> 00:14:20,700
that show because it's fucking furries, but you know, that seems to be something that Paragitagaki

150
00:14:20,700 --> 00:14:26,420
wants to put in her shows or in her manga and wants to talk about.

151
00:14:26,420 --> 00:14:31,020
So yeah, be aware of that if you want to check out the show, but that is also kind of the

152
00:14:31,020 --> 00:14:33,020
only scene where that happens.

153
00:14:33,020 --> 00:14:34,180
And like I said, it's a dream.

154
00:14:34,180 --> 00:14:38,260
So that's a cop out, but you know, it's still in there.

155
00:14:38,260 --> 00:14:43,580
But aside from that, there is just a bunch of weird characters, the weirdest, of course, the

156
00:14:43,580 --> 00:14:46,580
headmaster and Santa Claus themselves.

157
00:14:46,580 --> 00:14:49,300
And yeah, very interesting story.

158
00:14:49,300 --> 00:14:53,860
Just it looks cool, sounds cool, tackles some interesting topics like childhood growing

159
00:14:53,860 --> 00:14:57,580
up body insecurities, obsession with youth and everything.

160
00:14:57,580 --> 00:14:59,980
And I'm really interested to see where it goes.

161
00:14:59,980 --> 00:15:03,980
Like this, this show has a lot of potential and I'm very happy that the manga is apparently

162
00:15:03,980 --> 00:15:05,140
already finished.

163
00:15:05,140 --> 00:15:11,460
So like I said, we're probably going to get the full adaption of this at some point.

164
00:15:11,460 --> 00:15:16,740
And yeah, probably have a lot more to talk about when this comes back whenever that is happening.

165
00:15:16,740 --> 00:15:20,340
I think the second season has already been confirmed.

166
00:15:20,340 --> 00:15:23,900
I'm not sure, but I don't know when it's coming back.

167
00:15:23,900 --> 00:15:26,820
So yeah, definitely looking forward to that.

168
00:15:26,820 --> 00:15:28,660
Always fun to look at the sign shower shows.

169
00:15:28,660 --> 00:15:34,460
Just visual wise, this is super fun to look at that alone.

170
00:15:34,460 --> 00:15:38,820
Like I said, there are no big, not really that many big battles in this, only two, the rest

171
00:15:38,820 --> 00:15:45,620
is more like weird, maybe sometimes JoJo-esque battles where it's not really about fighting,

172
00:15:45,620 --> 00:15:53,380
fist fighting or whatever or fighting sword against slay runners.

173
00:15:53,380 --> 00:15:59,860
And but, you know, still, there's a lot of, you know, high octane somewhat action scenes

174
00:15:59,860 --> 00:16:08,460
in this show with lots of crazy shit happening that sign shower has a lot can do a lot with

175
00:16:08,460 --> 00:16:10,300
and they do so it's fun.

176
00:16:10,300 --> 00:16:16,540
They always seem to take on these weirder projects and I think that's cool for them.

177
00:16:16,540 --> 00:16:18,900
Absolutely cool and I appreciate that.

178
00:16:18,900 --> 00:16:24,140
That means that fits the head of that studio.

179
00:16:24,140 --> 00:16:26,620
So Masaki Uwasa.

180
00:16:26,620 --> 00:16:31,740
So that is absolutely in his spirit, I guess.

181
00:16:31,740 --> 00:16:39,100
And yeah, definitely looking forward to more of this and yeah, I'll talk about this when

182
00:16:39,100 --> 00:16:46,100
it comes back because this is a really cool, interesting, weird as fuck show that I enjoyed.

183
00:16:46,100 --> 00:16:48,020
And it's breezy because it's only 12 episodes.

184
00:16:48,020 --> 00:16:49,820
So yeah, definitely recommend it.

185
00:16:49,820 --> 00:16:55,580
Check it out if you want something off-kilter from your anime because it's definitely

186
00:16:55,580 --> 00:16:56,580
is that.

187
00:16:56,580 --> 00:16:57,580
It sounds it.

188
00:16:57,580 --> 00:17:01,380
Yeah, so John, what did you check out?

189
00:17:01,380 --> 00:17:06,580
I've checked out the second season of Ronma Half.

190
00:17:06,580 --> 00:17:07,900
Yes.

191
00:17:07,900 --> 00:17:13,460
And it was as goofy and as silly as the first season.

192
00:17:13,460 --> 00:17:19,660
We talked briefly about the appearance of a certain character, Hapo Sai.

193
00:17:19,660 --> 00:17:21,700
He's barely in this.

194
00:17:21,700 --> 00:17:22,700
Yay!

195
00:17:22,700 --> 00:17:23,700
Hooray!

196
00:17:23,700 --> 00:17:27,580
Nobody likes him.

197
00:17:27,580 --> 00:17:30,900
Not the fans, not the characters in the show.

198
00:17:30,900 --> 00:17:31,900
Nobody.

199
00:17:31,900 --> 00:17:35,380
So they at least kept his weirdo appearances to a minimum.

200
00:17:35,380 --> 00:17:38,380
I think he's in maybe three episodes at most.

201
00:17:38,380 --> 00:17:44,780
So it's like, because everything I heard about the character from the original comic and

202
00:17:44,780 --> 00:17:51,420
the past adaptation is sort of like, no.

203
00:17:51,420 --> 00:17:53,420
You don't want that?

204
00:17:53,420 --> 00:17:58,380
So, we get to meet, you know, Shampoo, we get to meet Mousse.

205
00:17:58,380 --> 00:18:07,420
Mousse has all sorts of weapons hidden up his sleeve quite literally.

206
00:18:07,420 --> 00:18:12,980
Ronma gets forced into his female form and he can't change back unless he takes this Phoenix

207
00:18:12,980 --> 00:18:20,260
Pill from Shampoo's great grandmother, Cologne.

208
00:18:20,260 --> 00:18:24,100
And I love the names of Ronma.

209
00:18:24,100 --> 00:18:27,700
They're so good, aren't they?

210
00:18:27,700 --> 00:18:32,580
Shampoo, Cologne, hey, why not?

211
00:18:32,580 --> 00:18:42,820
Kuno is still going after Akane and the pig-tailed girl female Ronma, even though he never

212
00:18:42,820 --> 00:18:49,100
adorns on him that the two Ronmas might possibly be the same person.

213
00:18:49,100 --> 00:18:55,180
It's just the Ronma I have to fight the pig-tailed girl that I love.

214
00:18:55,180 --> 00:18:57,420
Yeah, it's blinded.

215
00:18:57,420 --> 00:19:00,900
It literally makes you blind.

216
00:19:00,900 --> 00:19:04,820
It truly very much does.

217
00:19:04,820 --> 00:19:10,000
There's an introduction to a character earlier and goes soon, Kookie, who has this one-sided

218
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:17,060
crush on Akane and he wants to expose Ronma's weakness of which he has all of one and

219
00:19:17,060 --> 00:19:18,060
that is cats.

220
00:19:18,060 --> 00:19:25,620
And I talked about this during the sneak peak where if he gets exposed to cats and it like

221
00:19:25,620 --> 00:19:32,620
overwhelms him, he kind of goes into a cat-like mode himself and he ends up kissing Akane.

222
00:19:32,620 --> 00:19:34,620
Oh no.

223
00:19:34,620 --> 00:19:41,260
While he is a quote-unquote cat, but he has no memory of it after the fact.

224
00:19:41,260 --> 00:19:48,540
It's silly and it's goofy and the production continues to be really solid all around.

225
00:19:48,540 --> 00:19:56,780
To have the giant comic on a monopoeia, they do a lot of the single-color dithering on certain

226
00:19:56,780 --> 00:20:01,700
shots to remind you, "Hey, this was a comic at some point."

227
00:20:01,700 --> 00:20:04,260
So it has a lot of that style in there.

228
00:20:04,260 --> 00:20:11,100
And I don't know if there's any plans for another season yet because I don't think

229
00:20:11,100 --> 00:20:14,420
this story didn't end with this.

230
00:20:14,420 --> 00:20:18,700
They just were sort of like, "Ha ha ha, the adventure continues."

231
00:20:18,700 --> 00:20:20,220
La-di-da-di-da.

232
00:20:20,220 --> 00:20:22,660
Akane may have gotten turned into a duck.

233
00:20:22,660 --> 00:20:25,700
She didn't get turned into a duck.

234
00:20:25,700 --> 00:20:27,860
But it made for a good gag.

235
00:20:27,860 --> 00:20:33,620
His Ronma is suffering like, "It's my fault you got turned into a duck."

236
00:20:33,620 --> 00:20:38,740
And it turns around and sees Akane there and is like, "But you're the duck.

237
00:20:38,740 --> 00:20:39,740
Are you the duck?

238
00:20:39,740 --> 00:20:41,740
You're the duck, though."

239
00:20:41,740 --> 00:20:43,060
And that's that.

240
00:20:43,060 --> 00:20:51,340
It ends with Kuno getting a team drop kick from Ronma and Akane because, "Hey, why not?"

241
00:20:51,340 --> 00:20:56,500
That's powerful for the core, for Rubeko Takashi, stuff like this.

242
00:20:56,500 --> 00:20:57,500
I just like this.

243
00:20:57,500 --> 00:21:01,020
I enjoyed the show just because it was silly and goofy.

244
00:21:01,020 --> 00:21:07,900
Even though it was, you know, Rommcom, it's definitely more calm than it is Romm.

245
00:21:07,900 --> 00:21:10,580
So I appreciate it for that much.

246
00:21:10,580 --> 00:21:16,220
So, just letting it lean into how silly it is and not getting too serious on the other

247
00:21:16,220 --> 00:21:22,900
stuff, I think is what keeps this show, this story fun because it's just, you know, it's

248
00:21:22,900 --> 00:21:29,100
something silly each week, each volume, each chapter, I guess, you know, how depending

249
00:21:29,100 --> 00:21:30,940
on how you want to break it down.

250
00:21:30,940 --> 00:21:35,220
You kept it going pretty well on that merit.

251
00:21:35,220 --> 00:21:37,540
So it was silly, it was fun.

252
00:21:37,540 --> 00:21:42,860
Again, don't know if it's coming back for a third season would be cool to see it continue

253
00:21:42,860 --> 00:21:47,700
to go further down the Rumiko Takahashi rabbit hole as it were.

254
00:21:47,700 --> 00:21:48,700
Cool.

255
00:21:48,700 --> 00:21:49,700
But yeah.

256
00:21:49,700 --> 00:21:50,700
I mean, is there still manga left?

257
00:21:50,700 --> 00:21:51,700
There's a lot of material left.

258
00:21:51,700 --> 00:21:55,820
As far as I could tell, yeah, there's still a decent amount left.

259
00:21:55,820 --> 00:21:58,900
So it wouldn't be surprised if they bring it back then.

260
00:21:58,900 --> 00:22:06,060
Yeah, just there hasn't been any announcement of any sort of that I had seen.

261
00:22:06,060 --> 00:22:08,740
So I mean, does the Mapa show, right?

262
00:22:08,740 --> 00:22:09,740
Yes.

263
00:22:09,740 --> 00:22:11,900
So, yeah, I mean, if they're henceful, I guess.

264
00:22:11,900 --> 00:22:16,220
So we'll see whenever that gets the next one gets announced.

265
00:22:16,220 --> 00:22:17,220
Yes, let's see.

266
00:22:17,220 --> 00:22:19,980
They ended on chapter about 98 out of it.

267
00:22:19,980 --> 00:22:21,380
Scroll to the bottom.

268
00:22:21,380 --> 00:22:22,380
Oh my god.

269
00:22:22,380 --> 00:22:26,380
98 of 407.

270
00:22:26,380 --> 00:22:29,300
So, you know, there's plenty of material.

271
00:22:29,300 --> 00:22:30,300
Oh my god.

272
00:22:30,300 --> 00:22:32,700
I didn't realize there was that much.

273
00:22:32,700 --> 00:22:34,700
Yeah, that's it.

274
00:22:34,700 --> 00:22:36,620
What do you get next?

275
00:22:36,620 --> 00:22:39,620
Yes.

276
00:22:39,620 --> 00:22:45,460
Getting back on my favorite train, the Shonen train.

277
00:22:45,460 --> 00:22:52,540
First entry there would be Gachakuta, new bones show.

278
00:22:52,540 --> 00:22:58,820
And it's about this guy called Rudo, who is living in the outskirts of the city.

279
00:22:58,820 --> 00:23:04,540
Like there's like split in at least two parts, I guess, like in the inner part is like

280
00:23:04,540 --> 00:23:12,100
the rich guy, people who throw everything that they don't like away.

281
00:23:12,100 --> 00:23:19,260
And Rudo is like a trash collector and brings it back to the slums on the outskirts where

282
00:23:19,260 --> 00:23:28,140
he lives, everyone there living there is ostracized by the people on the inside and the people

283
00:23:28,140 --> 00:23:31,180
on the outside are called the tribes or whatever.

284
00:23:31,180 --> 00:23:37,380
And the rules in the slums are pretty harsh.

285
00:23:37,380 --> 00:23:43,500
Like if you commit certain crimes, especially murder, you get thrown into like this giant pit

286
00:23:43,500 --> 00:23:45,380
as a death sentence.

287
00:23:45,380 --> 00:23:52,100
And the same thing, sadly, happens to our main protagonists because his dad gets murdered

288
00:23:52,100 --> 00:23:55,460
and he gets accused of the crime.

289
00:23:55,460 --> 00:24:02,620
Of course, nobody listens to him when he says that it was a masked guy and then he gets dropped

290
00:24:02,620 --> 00:24:05,420
into the pit.

291
00:24:05,420 --> 00:24:13,060
And it turns out there's actually a land below on the ground, full with the trash that

292
00:24:13,060 --> 00:24:19,940
gets dropped from the top because it turns out whatever like what Rudo was living on is called

293
00:24:19,940 --> 00:24:24,220
the sphere and is apparently like this moving island that is floating in the sky or something

294
00:24:24,220 --> 00:24:25,620
like that.

295
00:24:25,620 --> 00:24:31,780
And everything that they every all the trash that they throw out from there that lands on

296
00:24:31,780 --> 00:24:39,540
the ground and that has led to several problems among them trash beasts manifesting in certain

297
00:24:39,540 --> 00:24:46,380
parts of the ground also that leads to that part of the ground being poisoned and everything.

298
00:24:46,380 --> 00:24:52,220
So of course the people on the ground are not happy with the sphere rights as they call

299
00:24:52,220 --> 00:24:54,820
them, the people from above.

300
00:24:54,820 --> 00:25:02,820
And yeah, so that is this is a problem for Rudo because a lot of people are after him down

301
00:25:02,820 --> 00:25:08,660
below, but he quickly runs into a nice guy called engine who is part of a group called

302
00:25:08,660 --> 00:25:17,300
the cleaners who fight the trash beasts and he takes Rudo in and welcomes him to his motley

303
00:25:17,300 --> 00:25:21,940
crew who are like like I said, these bounty hunters I get, but not really.

304
00:25:21,940 --> 00:25:27,980
They just they clean up, they clean the they they they battle trash beasts destroy them

305
00:25:27,980 --> 00:25:31,100
and save people from them and so on.

306
00:25:31,100 --> 00:25:45,460
And like I guess the main four guys become then Rudo and engine and Zanka and and the girl

307
00:25:45,460 --> 00:25:56,220
Rio and the interesting part is every one of the cleaners or a lot of the cleaners a lot

308
00:25:56,220 --> 00:26:01,660
of people down on the ground have special powers, they're called givers and what they can do

309
00:26:01,660 --> 00:26:10,020
is if they have taken care of an object for a long time, that object gets imbued with

310
00:26:10,020 --> 00:26:14,820
this kind of emotional energy called anima, which is also the energy that leads to the

311
00:26:14,820 --> 00:26:20,300
manifestation of the trash piece that is like the energy that manifests through all the trash

312
00:26:20,300 --> 00:26:28,180
that is thrown on the ground and myth legend said that all objects kind of have an amount

313
00:26:28,180 --> 00:26:36,340
of this energy and that can become bigger and stronger and so on and that leads to if

314
00:26:36,340 --> 00:26:44,540
either to these these beasts, these beasts forming in the dangerous lands or if you are

315
00:26:44,540 --> 00:26:48,820
a person and you care for an object long enough you don't throw it away, you take good care

316
00:26:48,820 --> 00:26:56,700
of it, that can become a vital instrument, it's what it's called and it's like this this

317
00:26:56,700 --> 00:26:59,980
weapon or can be used as a weapon.

318
00:26:59,980 --> 00:27:04,500
So we got a bunch of these like engine has like a nambrella that looks super torn up but

319
00:27:04,500 --> 00:27:11,020
can be turned into like this ramrod I don't even know like it looks like this drill from

320
00:27:11,020 --> 00:27:17,660
Gourne Lagann most of the time and then Rio the girl has a pair of scissors that gets turned

321
00:27:17,660 --> 00:27:22,980
into like this giant scissors that she controls with like that she does which is very cool

322
00:27:22,980 --> 00:27:28,980
she doesn't most of the time use her hands to whirl those around like a giant sword she

323
00:27:28,980 --> 00:27:37,740
uses her feet which leads to super cool kinetic fight scenes with her and then Zanka for example

324
00:27:37,740 --> 00:27:47,420
just uses like this staff which that being a very I don't know an interesting weapon is

325
00:27:47,420 --> 00:27:52,220
also part of his story in a way in his background story so that's cool but there a bunch of

326
00:27:52,220 --> 00:27:57,220
more weapons and Rudo he himself turns out has also one of these objects he has two gloves

327
00:27:57,220 --> 00:28:02,820
that he got from his dad and because he's a shown a protagonist of course that makes him

328
00:28:02,820 --> 00:28:09,020
more special than the other special characters with super powers of course these these gloves

329
00:28:09,020 --> 00:28:16,540
enable him to turn every object he wants to into a vital instrument because usually every

330
00:28:16,540 --> 00:28:23,140
giver only has one vital instrument for the entire life or that they can control and Rudo

331
00:28:23,140 --> 00:28:28,260
can just pick up and thing and then can imbue that with anima energy and it becomes a weapon

332
00:28:28,260 --> 00:28:33,180
so of course he's overpowered there's a limit to it because he can only do it like three

333
00:28:33,180 --> 00:28:40,180
times because he gets nosebleed and kills over right and there also some other you know

334
00:28:40,180 --> 00:28:43,700
wrinkles to it and everything that I don't want to go into now but it's interesting like

335
00:28:43,700 --> 00:28:48,340
it's an interesting battle system and everything it also lends it out itself to very very best

336
00:28:48,340 --> 00:28:53,940
battles especially who comes to Rudo because he can always use different weapons in every fight

337
00:28:53,940 --> 00:29:02,940
but also to the others because kind of some of these tools are working kind of the way

338
00:29:02,940 --> 00:29:10,420
that they were working when they were not used as a weapon for for example Rudo uses a

339
00:29:10,420 --> 00:29:15,740
talisman that one of the cleaners was praying to every time before they went to a mission

340
00:29:15,740 --> 00:29:23,900
for a safe return so how does that that thing that talisman work when Rudo turns it into

341
00:29:23,900 --> 00:29:28,940
a weapon well it becomes the ultimate defense right it helps Rudo to redirect a weapon enemy

342
00:29:28,940 --> 00:29:33,620
attack so that he can't get hit because that's the nature that is the energy that these

343
00:29:33,620 --> 00:29:40,540
talisman was imbued with by its previous owner so these are very interesting I always like

344
00:29:40,540 --> 00:29:47,820
when they it feels like it has been some thought has been put into your standard shonen battle

345
00:29:47,820 --> 00:29:51,820
mechanics right and this is definitely one of those shows where I get the feeling that

346
00:29:51,820 --> 00:29:59,020
the author did that it's also very interesting looking show because it's got this like I

347
00:29:59,020 --> 00:30:04,540
don't know this rugged feeling to is of course because everything is filled with trash right and

348
00:30:04,540 --> 00:30:09,180
the costumes also look kind of like stitched together there is like a graffiti aspect to

349
00:30:09,180 --> 00:30:15,420
is there is like a whole town that is like basically an assortment of artists who like spray

350
00:30:15,420 --> 00:30:21,060
the entire town like tech all of it with cool graffiti art and everything fantastic looking

351
00:30:21,060 --> 00:30:28,740
episode and it's really just really cool just some really cool idea just you know design wise in

352
00:30:28,740 --> 00:30:32,740
this show and also really cool soundtrack it's very metal heavy there's some really cool metal

353
00:30:32,740 --> 00:30:39,820
vocal tracks and the fights in some of the fight scenes which I of course go for so that's

354
00:30:39,820 --> 00:30:47,460
really nice and yeah definitely just design wise it feels it got it's it has a sole eater fire

355
00:30:47,460 --> 00:31:00,300
force vibe to it which makes sense because the creator of of the manga K Uraana was apparently according

356
00:31:00,300 --> 00:31:13,340
to one of our friends the assistant to the creator of fire force and so on so okable so I don't

357
00:31:13,340 --> 00:31:17,580
I haven't confirmed this so I don't know if it's true but it would make sense to me just in terms of

358
00:31:17,580 --> 00:31:25,980
artwork and the how somewhat unusual some of the characters are and wacky and everything and the

359
00:31:25,980 --> 00:31:33,100
humor in the show all of that feels very very close to fire force just you know have watching these

360
00:31:33,100 --> 00:31:38,460
shows somewhat back to back in these past two seasons is like yeah I can see that like I said I

361
00:31:38,460 --> 00:31:45,260
haven't confirmed it but I wouldn't be surprised if that actually is the case so if you like fire force

362
00:31:45,260 --> 00:31:50,620
if you like soul eater and want to go for something like a similar vibe in terms of humor in terms of

363
00:31:50,620 --> 00:31:58,620
design in terms of action yeah gotcha kutja definitely go for it because that's kind of it and you know

364
00:31:58,620 --> 00:32:05,180
Ruto's mission of course is going back to the surface to the sphere finding who killed his dad and

365
00:32:05,180 --> 00:32:11,100
also taking pretty much revenge on everything one up there also the people in the slums because they're

366
00:32:11,100 --> 00:32:19,660
very willing to condemn him on the spot you know to serve the people of the upper class even though

367
00:32:19,660 --> 00:32:27,500
those people tread on them every day right like so he's like wow I'm I was one of you and you treat

368
00:32:27,500 --> 00:32:33,900
me like garbage only you know because you feel like you need to suck up to the people at the top

369
00:32:33,900 --> 00:32:41,580
and man hmm sure sounds like a lower plate upper plate midgar situation

370
00:32:41,580 --> 00:32:48,380
also I feel like this is one of the shows where it's like hey anime is never political yes shut the

371
00:32:48,380 --> 00:32:59,500
fuck up why no you don't you that can't be true some some some people say that and they are

372
00:32:59,500 --> 00:33:05,980
weird to me so yeah it's safe with the Japanese video games like come on people just fucking open

373
00:33:05,980 --> 00:33:14,940
your eyes so it's fun it's crazy there's also definitely some twists later in the show that I didn't

374
00:33:14,940 --> 00:33:24,380
see coming some funny ones some disturbing ones like this yes if there's like a thing I maybe didn't

375
00:33:24,380 --> 00:33:33,260
really like there's like this a story in the middle of the of the show where um they meet this girl

376
00:33:33,260 --> 00:33:38,540
called ammo who's living in the desert and they have this fight against her she's

377
00:33:38,540 --> 00:33:49,900
fucked up all the way to hell and back like she's really super crazy and the show maybe

378
00:33:49,900 --> 00:33:55,020
it's also a cool thing that the show did that to me but like this I don't know if it was intentional or

379
00:33:55,020 --> 00:34:01,740
or if it just happened to be like there's this you know she almost kills the the other cleaners and

380
00:34:01,740 --> 00:34:07,260
then Rudo beats the shit out of her like when she's already on the ground like he literally like beats

381
00:34:07,260 --> 00:34:15,500
her face in this this this of this girl which you don't really see that much in anime where it comes

382
00:34:15,500 --> 00:34:23,100
to you know a good guy ostensibly good guy doing that to to I guess one of the bad guys of women a woman

383
00:34:23,100 --> 00:34:30,540
at that but then we learn her backstory and it's really really bad like not bad in in the terms of

384
00:34:30,540 --> 00:34:38,060
badly written but it's it's really fucked up like her mom basically sold her into slavery like to that

385
00:34:38,060 --> 00:34:46,220
to to to a pedophile and she became his his possession and but thought she was in love or whatever

386
00:34:46,220 --> 00:34:51,420
and he manipulated her and grouped the fuck out of her it's really disturbing and creepy and

387
00:34:51,420 --> 00:34:58,380
uncomfortable and you know that kind of recontextualizes yeah she was crazy and tried to kill you but

388
00:34:58,380 --> 00:35:04,380
look where she is coming from but the show also so him beating the shit out of her and really beating

389
00:35:04,380 --> 00:35:11,500
her to like bloody just really fit fits really bad after the fact but he also then goes to her

390
00:35:11,500 --> 00:35:17,660
apologizes and reaches out like his hand to her there was still like an icky undertone to all this

391
00:35:17,660 --> 00:35:22,140
because it's like kind of a savior thing going on with him and first he had to beat the shit out

392
00:35:22,140 --> 00:35:30,380
of her before he could safer but because that make me feel kind of blah but also that is part of

393
00:35:30,380 --> 00:35:37,980
his character because Rudo is an absolute hothead like the show regularly calls back to him be getting

394
00:35:37,980 --> 00:35:41,980
in a lot of trouble because he doesn't have his emotions on the control because he gets angry all

395
00:35:41,980 --> 00:35:48,940
the time at people sometimes without reason and he just always blows a fuse and everything

396
00:35:48,940 --> 00:35:55,260
and this was one of these situations and this story is also you know first and foremost that

397
00:35:55,260 --> 00:36:05,420
feed like this for his revenge but also it is about him learning to grow up and not being as much of a

398
00:36:05,420 --> 00:36:14,860
fucking chaos agent and a fucking just a violent monster even if it's directed at the correct people

399
00:36:14,860 --> 00:36:24,700
most of the time so I guess that fits into that but it still made me feel like I just the the

400
00:36:25,580 --> 00:36:34,300
succession of events that happened one after another felt like didn't feel really good in terms of

401
00:36:34,300 --> 00:36:40,060
and maybe the show did want to make me feel like that maybe to show intentionally put that next

402
00:36:40,060 --> 00:36:44,140
to each other because I thought you enjoyed him beating the shit out of this little girl right

403
00:36:44,140 --> 00:36:49,340
because she tried to kill his companions well now you see why she was that way do you still feel

404
00:36:49,340 --> 00:36:55,900
good about that you sick fuck and maybe that's what the show wants to do to its viewers I wouldn't

405
00:36:55,900 --> 00:37:02,940
put it like pass it I would that could very much be the case but I'm not sure and that's why I'm

406
00:37:02,940 --> 00:37:09,340
still a bit uncomfortable with these with these couple of moments so this this was the one hiccup

407
00:37:09,340 --> 00:37:15,660
moment in the middle of the show where it's like oh okay I don't know if I like this but it moves past

408
00:37:15,660 --> 00:37:20,860
that and especially like opens up a new chapter with these two characters because they kind of

409
00:37:20,860 --> 00:37:25,740
become friends after that so it seems even though it quickly moves on to the next thing after that

410
00:37:25,740 --> 00:37:37,340
but yeah it was okay after that so I don't know if it will go back to this kind of stuff in the next

411
00:37:37,340 --> 00:37:44,780
season who knows but everything else was pretty much standards shown in fair you got your

412
00:37:44,780 --> 00:37:50,780
waky characters you got your humor you got a lot of big fights and let me tell you if you've missed

413
00:37:50,780 --> 00:37:58,380
bones going all out in recent time maybe on some seasons of my hero academia or whatever not

414
00:37:58,380 --> 00:38:03,900
bringing their a game they definitely brought their a game in this show like there there are some fights

415
00:38:03,900 --> 00:38:09,180
in this show that are downright insane that looks so fucking good especially in like the final big

416
00:38:09,180 --> 00:38:16,220
confrontation of the season in episode 21 there's like this big like this big fight scene with a lot

417
00:38:16,220 --> 00:38:24,460
of characters fighting one person but there's so much crazy choreography and all much all the crazy

418
00:38:24,460 --> 00:38:33,020
shit happening at the same time and I loved it it was fantastic so great show entertaining show hey if

419
00:38:33,020 --> 00:38:38,540
you are on the show in action train like I am and don't intend to get off or can't get off because

420
00:38:38,540 --> 00:38:44,140
you're stupid or addicted to it hey this might be one of the shows you want to check out like I said

421
00:38:44,140 --> 00:38:47,980
there's this weird eki part in the middle but also that might be intentional because like I said

422
00:38:47,980 --> 00:38:54,460
it kind of fits with what they're trying to do apparently with Rudo as a character and him

423
00:38:54,460 --> 00:39:01,580
feeling regret or having to learn to feel regret for certain things and trying to learn to get his

424
00:39:02,220 --> 00:39:09,420
his anger issues under control um so we'll see we'll see how it pens out I don't know I think also here

425
00:39:09,420 --> 00:39:15,580
a second season has been confirmed but no air date yet or whatever and I don't know how far the

426
00:39:15,580 --> 00:39:21,180
manga is ahead it doesn't sound like there's that much there was that much material left or is that

427
00:39:21,180 --> 00:39:27,740
much material left after the season wrapped up so they might have to wait a bit uh until they have

428
00:39:27,740 --> 00:39:34,460
enough material to continue um we'll see um I hope this is gonna be the next big bones temple thing

429
00:39:34,460 --> 00:39:41,420
I haven't seen that many people talk about it so I doubt it will become as big as my hero academia

430
00:39:41,420 --> 00:39:46,940
or something like that but I wouldn't mind it continuing for a while because this has a lot of promise

431
00:39:46,940 --> 00:39:51,580
and like I said some really interesting tidbits that I haven't seen in some of the other show in

432
00:39:51,580 --> 00:39:58,620
action shows so yeah I enjoyed it quite a lot I thought it was a good fucking time so yeah

433
00:39:58,620 --> 00:40:07,020
John what is your last quick and the dead entry uh touring after the apocalypse yes so this was

434
00:40:07,020 --> 00:40:14,140
kind of like uh didn't you feel in the sneak peak was it like the show where you weren't sure if

435
00:40:14,140 --> 00:40:21,420
we want to continue it yeah I ended up finishing it up okay and you know it was this neat sort of

436
00:40:22,140 --> 00:40:29,100
lazy traveling tail across a post-apocalyptic world uh Japan is in quite the state

437
00:40:29,100 --> 00:40:36,780
things are underwater things are destroyed there's uh no roads and certain parts

438
00:40:36,780 --> 00:40:46,700
there's giant storms it ain't bad or any good it's bad uh this season didn't really

439
00:40:47,900 --> 00:40:55,500
feel like going into a lot of the particulars of that though like there was some sort of

440
00:40:55,500 --> 00:41:00,620
catastrophe there might have been a war it might have been something it might have been

441
00:41:00,620 --> 00:41:11,100
we're not sure if uh or I'm not sure if when the main characters Yoko if her

442
00:41:14,140 --> 00:41:20,540
quote big sister it's not there's that's nothing it's not clear it's not clear if they're related

443
00:41:20,540 --> 00:41:27,020
by blood or if it's just you know oh you're my own H on sort of thing you know it's not clear if

444
00:41:27,020 --> 00:41:38,300
this other character Cheeto say is alive or not but the Yoko and Iri Iri's this little android girl

445
00:41:38,300 --> 00:41:43,580
are sort of following the path that Cheeto say is sort of taken on her travels throughout Japan

446
00:41:44,300 --> 00:41:50,700
so I guess the end point is trying to find out what happened to her sister and

447
00:41:50,700 --> 00:42:00,380
this season's sort of just ends at one point and it's like oh uh

448
00:42:00,380 --> 00:42:12,460
mm-hmm go on oh you're not going to oh okay so we got like four volumes into where the manga is which

449
00:42:12,460 --> 00:42:21,260
I guess the manga is still running I can't turn up a concrete number of what chapter it's currently on

450
00:42:21,260 --> 00:42:31,500
but it is the last collection like the um the last volume the last tonkobon that was released was in

451
00:42:31,500 --> 00:42:39,900
this past October the latest chapter number I can find is 38 which doesn't seem right considering

452
00:42:39,900 --> 00:42:48,780
this ends at around chapter 24 so there's a lot of story that seems to have been left unsaid and

453
00:42:48,780 --> 00:42:59,980
which you know okay that's fine but I have I have so many questions and this this season did not

454
00:42:59,980 --> 00:43:10,860
really answer any of them to be if I'm being real so and there's no word if there's going to be

455
00:43:10,860 --> 00:43:15,580
a second season so I guess I might have to open a book and read if I want to find out what happened

456
00:43:15,580 --> 00:43:20,860
which oh no how terrible having to read I make it sound like it's a bad thing

457
00:43:20,860 --> 00:43:29,900
oh but you know what this show did really well was a lot of the vistas in the places that Iri and Yoko

458
00:43:29,900 --> 00:43:37,500
go to like it's definitely a ruined landscape from top to bottom every place they go to like in one

459
00:43:37,500 --> 00:43:48,220
area they meet this robot who is uh he uh shows them he tells them about the place at the

460
00:43:48,220 --> 00:43:55,180
ren and he kind of ends up running out of battery and ostensibly dying as they're leaving it's like

461
00:43:55,180 --> 00:44:03,660
well that's sort of sad to see you know they come across this um FM radio broadcast in akihabara

462
00:44:03,660 --> 00:44:11,740
and they expect to find someone there but it's this a a i dj akibahjiro the second

463
00:44:11,740 --> 00:44:19,580
and it can sort of indirectly interact with the people that actually come into the radio station but

464
00:44:19,580 --> 00:44:26,220
you know it's it's just a robot like you know a very dumb robot that can just spit out what's put

465
00:44:26,220 --> 00:44:31,420
into it but it can see them through a web camera and whatnot and they do a funny thing where

466
00:44:31,420 --> 00:44:38,460
the show was distributed by anaplex and the robot is voiced by yosu Tsugu Matsuoka and the song

467
00:44:38,460 --> 00:44:45,100
that plays when they first get into akibah is from sordard online ha ha ha ha ha so you know they

468
00:44:45,100 --> 00:44:50,700
had some fun with that and i was like all right okay i see what you guys did that's fine and a lot

469
00:44:50,700 --> 00:44:58,300
of that is i'm just continuing their travels they uh when going to umi ho is how to run a fall of this

470
00:44:58,300 --> 00:45:07,020
very violent storm with lots of funnels in the water it's like really scary and um very harrowing

471
00:45:07,900 --> 00:45:17,820
uh run across you know a whole group of uh rats in there in their haneh uh they get to a

472
00:45:17,820 --> 00:45:24,780
national motorcycle shrine where there's like this one left robot left that's able to guide them

473
00:45:24,780 --> 00:45:31,500
through it and they go on a race around the track and all interspersed throughout all of this

474
00:45:32,940 --> 00:45:40,300
yoko has these like flashbacks to what may have been the past which shito say it's not

475
00:45:40,300 --> 00:45:45,420
it's not clear if they're her memories or if she somehow

476
00:45:45,420 --> 00:45:55,420
reliving shito says memories vicariously it's strange in a lot of different ways but

477
00:45:55,420 --> 00:46:01,100
it's got me curious about where the story goes after this is like i said maybe i'll just look up the

478
00:46:01,100 --> 00:46:06,860
manga and keep reading it because i don't know how much longer it's because it's still apparently

479
00:46:06,860 --> 00:46:14,300
continuing don't know again don't know how many chapters in they are but uh i think

480
00:46:14,300 --> 00:46:19,340
yenpress you could still get this you could still get a second season right so that's true but there

481
00:46:19,340 --> 00:46:25,740
hasn't been any work on that i figured there would have been maybe something unless it's

482
00:46:27,820 --> 00:46:34,060
unless it's by something how would like the case study of veneta's they're waiting for a more material

483
00:46:34,060 --> 00:46:42,380
well then again that was current when it ended so this is not quite current as far as i understand so

484
00:46:42,380 --> 00:46:51,500
i don't know i'd like to see more of it i'm curious how far behind the anime ended but i guess

485
00:46:51,500 --> 00:46:59,420
that's something i could figure out if i do if i actually do some reading so we'll see um

486
00:46:59,420 --> 00:47:07,980
you're a shrews rarberber i thought i was in need enough for what i was but again i want i want

487
00:47:07,980 --> 00:47:17,340
answers i want to know things so we'll see you recall this from that yeah i hope you will get a

488
00:47:17,340 --> 00:47:27,820
second season i hope so too but we'll see otherwise you gotta pick up the manga or whatever the light

489
00:47:27,820 --> 00:47:36,780
novel what yeah it is a manga um there's eight volumes in japan we've gotten uh or the seventh volume

490
00:47:36,780 --> 00:47:45,340
is releasing in the west the end of next month in april so okay it will be almost current in the

491
00:47:45,340 --> 00:47:54,860
english uh language manga so that's that uh what you got for your last one well not getting off the

492
00:47:54,860 --> 00:48:03,420
show in action train and oh no of course not what else could the final entry final entry be then

493
00:48:03,420 --> 00:48:11,740
the final season of my hero academia because that just ended man it's been a long time coming you

494
00:48:11,740 --> 00:48:19,420
jumped off the train a little while ago yeah i kept going and i'm glad i did because this was a great

495
00:48:19,420 --> 00:48:27,020
finale that was something i for a while there in the show did not necessarily expect i would get

496
00:48:27,020 --> 00:48:33,580
but after it started picking up with i think it's six season again uh i got more confident than

497
00:48:33,580 --> 00:48:40,700
rightfully so because this was great uh there's a lot of like this is here this is Avengers endgame

498
00:48:40,700 --> 00:48:47,420
levels of shit happening uh at the same time everyone is fighting everyone is fighting shika raki

499
00:48:47,420 --> 00:48:52,140
and the leak of villains what is left of them anyway and all for one at the same time

500
00:48:52,140 --> 00:49:00,460
and uh yeah it's it's crazy we we start up where we left off with the dark night returns right

501
00:49:00,460 --> 00:49:06,140
between all might and all for one like uh all might who has not his powers anymore but they just

502
00:49:06,140 --> 00:49:13,500
turned them into bad man in bad mobile includes it included and that just uh gives him this power

503
00:49:13,500 --> 00:49:20,940
armor and then they fight and uh all might uses all these weapons that are kind of mirror the

504
00:49:20,940 --> 00:49:27,740
quirks of his students so it's like they're fighting with him so it's super cool and emotional and um

505
00:49:27,740 --> 00:49:33,980
we get like this all this last moment first of all like stain intervenes and helps at a clutch

506
00:49:33,980 --> 00:49:39,900
moment which i didn't see coming really not bad for him yeah yeah but he's like he you know all

507
00:49:39,900 --> 00:49:45,660
all might was also his idol in a way uh he just didn't wasn't happy with how it turned out but uh he

508
00:49:45,660 --> 00:49:50,220
turns us around there were some teasers for that in the previous uh previous seasons and then he

509
00:49:50,220 --> 00:49:58,300
comes another clutch moment and and stops all for one just uh from doing shit and it's really cool uh

510
00:49:58,300 --> 00:50:03,820
and then we have like this all is last moment uh where all for one is about to kill all might

511
00:50:03,820 --> 00:50:10,060
in front of everyone and uh they could get to him because he has to restrain shigaraki was completely

512
00:50:10,060 --> 00:50:17,900
different part of the city and then bakugo who we assumed was on death's door uh due to being like

513
00:50:17,900 --> 00:50:24,380
impaled by shigaraki uh re-awakens and diko holds him towards all might which bakugo was able to

514
00:50:24,380 --> 00:50:29,420
save and it's the best possible ending for his arc you know since season three he has always

515
00:50:29,420 --> 00:50:34,860
held himself responsible for ending the career of all might by forcing him to use his last power in

516
00:50:34,860 --> 00:50:40,620
the battle against all for one but now he can have his redemption by actually being the one to

517
00:50:40,620 --> 00:50:49,900
save his idol from certain death and in the sickest way possible too like amazing uh everything top

518
00:50:49,900 --> 00:50:56,220
notch again animations uh soundtrack you name it and not only dead he gets to be the one to bomb the

519
00:50:56,220 --> 00:51:05,100
shit out of all for one while saying i'm the last boss it's so cool the animation is incredible

520
00:51:05,100 --> 00:51:10,460
like yuki hi she score becoming more epic than ever not in a million years at the beginning of

521
00:51:10,460 --> 00:51:15,900
season one would i have guessed i'd be cheering so much for bakugo but he's so awesome here

522
00:51:15,900 --> 00:51:22,300
like my hero academia just as we constantly nailing the long game payoffs in this final stretch of

523
00:51:22,300 --> 00:51:28,460
the story like kuto story koshii and bones uh the road was shaky at times but man have you made it

524
00:51:28,460 --> 00:51:35,020
worth it over and over again and uh we finally learned all for once origin uh and that of his little

525
00:51:35,020 --> 00:51:42,620
brother you uh you eegi who um uh started the one for all legacy of meta users it's interesting

526
00:51:42,620 --> 00:51:50,540
albeit not very original like turns out all for one was just an all powerful gree monster as soon

527
00:51:50,540 --> 00:51:56,620
as he left the womb of his mother uh convinced the world and everything in it was his alone that included

528
00:51:56,620 --> 00:52:02,460
his brother and he started losing it when his brother was taken away from him by the person that

529
00:52:02,460 --> 00:52:08,700
would become the second one for all user uh so that started kind of like this eternal beef with all

530
00:52:08,700 --> 00:52:16,300
one for all users uh and that second user somewhat resembles bakugo which wasn't really necessary

531
00:52:16,300 --> 00:52:22,300
to make this final confrontation work but it's also not it's also not uh detracting from its

532
00:52:22,300 --> 00:52:31,500
effectiveness because you're like hey it rhymes uh and uh it's pretty cool um uh and like we have

533
00:52:31,500 --> 00:52:37,260
this last-dish effort where all for one transforms into an hr giger nightmare and tries to propel

534
00:52:37,260 --> 00:52:43,820
himself towards shigaraki to take over his body as planned uh but bakugo is there and finally

535
00:52:43,820 --> 00:52:50,860
delivers the finishing blow and all for one's uncontrollable rewind power uh which he you know

536
00:52:50,860 --> 00:52:59,420
stole from uh area and so on uh dust arrest and he exits the world as he entered it as a crying

537
00:52:59,420 --> 00:53:07,580
baby then an embryo then an excel then nothing uh that's wild and a properly small ending for a

538
00:53:07,580 --> 00:53:13,420
monster that concert uh itself above everyone for its entire life from dust you came and to dust you

539
00:53:13,420 --> 00:53:21,740
shall return uh at least so i thought because of course that's not the end of that fucker

540
00:53:21,740 --> 00:53:31,260
because at the other side of things we have um shigaraki and deku fighting and uh we also we have

541
00:53:31,260 --> 00:53:39,180
this we have this battle in shigaraki's mind palace kinder that deku enters by throwing all

542
00:53:39,180 --> 00:53:44,540
all the all for one user spirits at him and everything at that opening that's opening a door to uh

543
00:53:44,540 --> 00:53:52,620
shigaraki's mind it becomes very crazy and deku enters it and uh everyone is asking him to kill

544
00:53:52,620 --> 00:53:59,180
shigaraki but deku can't do that because that is who he is it's not who he is right he's the hero the

545
00:53:59,180 --> 00:54:05,500
ultimate hero he saves people he can't kill even the worst bad guy uh he can only live in fight

546
00:54:05,500 --> 00:54:10,140
according to his ideals and those do not gel with the idea of abandoning the soul of a child that

547
00:54:10,140 --> 00:54:18,940
has been subconsciously begging deku to help him uh over several encounters and everything um so the

548
00:54:18,940 --> 00:54:27,100
second one for all users decides to gamble big and as deku to um uh as i say let as he says let's go

549
00:54:27,100 --> 00:54:33,100
parts of one for all so uh the remnants of the previous users can enter shigaraki's mind and

550
00:54:33,100 --> 00:54:38,540
pry open the door to a subconsciousness the only point of attack hidden in the mind of the monster

551
00:54:38,540 --> 00:54:46,220
that all for one has created so he does that he fights a he learns um uh shigaraki's backstory the

552
00:54:46,220 --> 00:54:53,260
tragic stuff with his dad hating his grandma because she was never there for him and then projecting

553
00:54:53,260 --> 00:54:58,620
that honest child to also shigaraki only wanted to be a hero he loved playing a hero but his dad

554
00:54:58,620 --> 00:55:03,660
hated that because his mom was a hero and she was never there for him and you know family trauma

555
00:55:03,660 --> 00:55:10,300
a lot of my hero academia is about family trauma you know the endeavor family storylines all about

556
00:55:10,300 --> 00:55:17,660
that but you know also the shigaraki storyline and you know there's some back and forth uh shigaraki

557
00:55:17,660 --> 00:55:24,460
of course is in control of his mind so deku can't really do much there even though he's trying to

558
00:55:24,460 --> 00:55:30,220
things get really dire because he loses both hands while battling in shigaraki's consciousness which

559
00:55:30,220 --> 00:55:36,620
has an effect on his real body uh so of course this is the best moment for the show to pull an

560
00:55:36,620 --> 00:55:41,580
Avengers end game on your left moment and all the available heroes and classmates of deku emerge

561
00:55:41,580 --> 00:55:47,660
from portals uh hiashi soundtrack goes into emotional overdrive once again deku is healed by

562
00:55:47,660 --> 00:55:52,700
iris power at the final final final showdown can begin i'm cheering i'm crying i'm yelling

563
00:55:52,700 --> 00:56:00,220
fuck yeah everything you want out of the big action finale and um yeah everyone is starting to fight

564
00:56:00,220 --> 00:56:09,660
shigaraki uh who turns his body uh or technically all for one who at this point uh because the one thing

565
00:56:09,660 --> 00:56:19,100
deku was able to do is have shigaraki take a step back in his mind and you know hesitate the problem is

566
00:56:19,100 --> 00:56:26,540
once he hesitates and his will becomes weak in regards to his goals of destroying everything the remnant

567
00:56:26,540 --> 00:56:33,180
of all for one that was already implanted in his mind takes over and uh takes whole and pushes down

568
00:56:33,180 --> 00:56:41,340
almost completely erases shigaraki's consciousness and takes over his body and from that moment on

569
00:56:41,340 --> 00:56:48,300
everyone all the heroes fight all for one in shigaraki's body one last time who becomes his love

570
00:56:48,300 --> 00:56:53,900
crafty in abomination with tentacles everywhere made of metal and shit and it looks creepy as fuck

571
00:56:53,900 --> 00:57:02,300
uh but then of course we get this big final here comes to sakuga shit uh seen where everyone

572
00:57:02,300 --> 00:57:07,820
paves the way like all the a once you and then other students paved the way for deku um who together

573
00:57:07,820 --> 00:57:13,660
with the final glimmering fragment of shigaraki's fading consciousness delivers the final

574
00:57:14,380 --> 00:57:19,580
blow on all for one and the day is saved so all for one gets to pull a liquid snake

575
00:57:19,580 --> 00:57:27,100
yes pretty much yes exactly yes yes yes yes yes and uh yeah then we get the three episode long

576
00:57:27,100 --> 00:57:32,300
epilogue which is also nice which we don't really get in any anime and apparently there's one more

577
00:57:32,300 --> 00:57:42,380
epilogue episode coming in May and um i just you know i i love that too and another thing that stuck

578
00:57:42,380 --> 00:57:48,540
out to me was i appreciate how ruthless horikoshi is when it comes to permanently scar or mangles heroes

579
00:57:48,540 --> 00:57:54,620
because that also comes to play in this epilogue like a lot of the characters got severely fucked up

580
00:57:54,620 --> 00:57:59,580
in the final battle especially in devor who lost at least one arm and can't walk anymore

581
00:57:59,580 --> 00:58:07,340
just in a wheelchair from now on uh we get a nice book end to the to the roke family arc though

582
00:58:07,340 --> 00:58:15,260
that is not the perfect happy ending thing especially the state toya is in uh slash dabi but it's

583
00:58:15,260 --> 00:58:21,420
appropriate and hopeful enough to not feel like a complete downer um so it's cool like in general

584
00:58:21,420 --> 00:58:27,340
the tone of the epilogue is bittersweet like ojako is still wrestling with toga sacrificing herself to

585
00:58:27,340 --> 00:58:36,140
keep uh ojako alive uh deku having pretty much used up all of one for all power uh the one for all

586
00:58:36,140 --> 00:58:42,300
powers and almost being quirkless again um and the show is not hiding the fact that the big fight had

587
00:58:42,300 --> 00:58:47,660
lasting consequences and i appreciate that i like that not everyone gets out of this squeaky clean

588
00:58:47,660 --> 00:58:52,780
and a lot of the people are permanently scarred and damaged emotionally as well as physically

589
00:58:52,780 --> 00:58:59,340
um but we of course also get the usual nice epilogue stuff like seeing everyone grown up

590
00:58:59,340 --> 00:59:04,060
leading new lives uh deku being quirkless but in sprang the next generation as a teacher

591
00:59:04,940 --> 00:59:11,420
um and yeah i guess the final statement of the show is that everyone can be a hero which

592
00:59:11,420 --> 00:59:17,100
kind of was the thing from the get go because deku is you and me like he's the quirkless person he's

593
00:59:17,100 --> 00:59:22,300
the person without power but his will and his determination to be a better person to help people

594
00:59:22,300 --> 00:59:28,140
makes him become something better and he was that for a while and he still is that now even though

595
00:59:28,140 --> 00:59:33,740
he's quirkless again but he like i said is in sprang the next generation he gets a nice power suit

596
00:59:33,740 --> 00:59:40,140
just like all for one uh got at the end which is a bit of a cop out i guess but he needs to be a hero

597
00:59:40,140 --> 00:59:49,100
the power we gained was the friends we made a long way that too yes but not only that you know it's

598
00:59:49,100 --> 00:59:55,100
also about like i said determination and you know of course also the other characters helping him

599
00:59:55,100 --> 01:00:00,540
become that and helping him grow and he in turn helping the other characters to grow you know

600
01:00:00,540 --> 01:00:07,740
what would have become of bakugou if deku wasn't around uh in this story uh to turn in into a

601
01:00:07,740 --> 01:00:12,380
completely different person than he was in the then the bully he was in the beginning and by the

602
01:00:12,380 --> 01:00:18,380
end he becomes a lot of people's favorite character mind including like i and if bakugou is fantastic

603
01:00:18,380 --> 01:00:25,420
by the end so uh uh you know we see a nice team up set the end you and you can guess from who

604
01:00:25,420 --> 01:00:31,900
becomes a hero team who will become who becomes an item down the road a lot of these already being

605
01:00:31,900 --> 01:00:38,780
teased in the beginning but there's not really any anything like you don't get the hey

606
01:00:38,780 --> 01:00:43,260
they could end up with ojako and everything and they have kids and so on that doesn't really happen

607
01:00:43,260 --> 01:00:48,060
which i kind of also appreciate it like we don't have the typical a here's that person and they

608
01:00:48,060 --> 01:00:53,660
become an item and they we you can guess that but the show is not really like confirming that or

609
01:00:53,660 --> 01:01:00,380
being like hey here all of all of these characters now now are in a relationship or whatever so that's

610
01:01:00,380 --> 01:01:06,460
kind of neat uh i kind of like that as well um because it feels like the show didn't do enough

611
01:01:06,460 --> 01:01:12,860
legwork during its runtime to justify that happening when it comes to character relationships so i'm

612
01:01:12,860 --> 01:01:18,780
glad it stuck to its guns in that regard and was like hey now all these characters uh belong to each

613
01:01:18,780 --> 01:01:25,900
other and our people you know that are romantically engaged or whatever so i like that uh i think

614
01:01:25,900 --> 01:01:32,620
that's good um but yeah like i said final statement of the show is everyone can be your hero just

615
01:01:32,620 --> 01:01:39,740
keep your eyes open for people who are in need and go beyond to help them uh which is in the plus

616
01:01:39,740 --> 01:01:45,820
ultra spirit of the show you know you never know how much the smallest friendly the smallest

617
01:01:45,820 --> 01:01:51,500
friendly gesture or helping hand can change the life of a single person or maybe as it turns out the

618
01:01:51,500 --> 01:02:00,300
world so yeah fantastic finale to uh sometimes mixed experience of a show but it was definitely worth

619
01:02:00,300 --> 01:02:05,180
in my opinion sticking with it uh till the end and definitely gonna try to get off it on blu-ray

620
01:02:05,180 --> 01:02:11,180
now i wanted to hold off on uh hold off on that until i watched a finale because you with anime i mean

621
01:02:11,180 --> 01:02:15,260
with shows in general you never know what turns out by the end but especially with anime's

622
01:02:15,260 --> 01:02:22,540
often drops the ball on the last couple of meters where it's like oh god why yeah and i'm really glad

623
01:02:22,540 --> 01:02:27,980
that my hero academia isn't didn't turn out to be one of these shows and i still have vigilantes

624
01:02:27,980 --> 01:02:36,460
to to watch uh which is uh also fun uh client slide slightly different flavor from that universe but

625
01:02:37,260 --> 01:02:43,420
uh i'm glad that that is still around but i'm also really glad that my hero academia proper got such a

626
01:02:43,420 --> 01:02:48,460
great scent off looking forward to the final epilogue episode in may and and i can finally say goodbye

627
01:02:48,460 --> 01:02:56,940
to the show and i'm really glad i watched it and uh yeah uh hey very happy i'm i'm looking forward to see

628
01:02:56,940 --> 01:03:01,820
what ori-cushies do next uh i don't know if he already started new manga which i must assume he did

629
01:03:02,460 --> 01:03:10,380
but i didn't look up what that is and uh uh uh what what his new plans are but yeah really really happy

630
01:03:10,380 --> 01:03:17,980
with this um um glad that at least once gave it best of the season and uh yeah loved it loved this

631
01:03:17,980 --> 01:03:25,660
finale thought was fantastic and with that we are out of the quick question mark and the dead

632
01:03:26,380 --> 01:03:35,500
and uh it was quick enough i guess quick enough yes but we have a four review scheduled as well and we

633
01:03:35,500 --> 01:03:56,140
gonna move into that right now yeah now begins the uh third fourth depending on how you count

634
01:03:56,140 --> 01:04:04,700
season of spy family i guess it is number three because we had one season that was two parts

635
01:04:04,700 --> 01:04:12,860
guys can we talk about numbers for a second just can we figure that out please yes it would be great if

636
01:04:12,860 --> 01:04:22,300
we could decide on either course or seasons or it's just got damn it it's uh it's really weird like

637
01:04:22,300 --> 01:04:28,700
a lot of people are talking about like hey twelve episodes are just a half season but then what are

638
01:04:28,700 --> 01:04:34,860
shows that only run for twelve episodes is that not an entire season of anime it's just

639
01:04:34,860 --> 01:04:41,900
ah i mean it's a mess it would count as a calendar season yes exactly so

640
01:04:41,900 --> 01:04:49,740
fuck it i guess we're just we're just gonna call it new spy family more spy family

641
01:04:49,740 --> 01:04:57,580
spy family the next to the current spy family part three the reckoning

642
01:04:58,460 --> 01:05:09,820
revengeance exactly who's taking revenge Fiona yes we'll get to that we'll get we'll get to my favorite

643
01:05:09,820 --> 01:05:15,900
scene in the season but that's coming pretty much at the at the end or very close to the end so

644
01:05:15,900 --> 01:05:20,620
where we have something like work to do before that John what is happening in this a lot of

645
01:05:20,620 --> 01:05:28,380
season core i mean as far as looking because i actually just now took a look at the list of the story

646
01:05:28,380 --> 01:05:37,820
arcs it uh according to the manga a lot actually we move through about we move through about four

647
01:05:37,820 --> 01:05:44,380
distinct arcs according to how they are delineated in the uh manga adaptation

648
01:05:49,260 --> 01:05:54,060
so you know i guess we kind of had an intro episode where it's like hey do you remember the forchers

649
01:05:54,060 --> 01:06:02,380
and all the goofy stuff they get into cool here construction worker like like construction site battle

650
01:06:02,380 --> 01:06:08,540
with excavators excavator battle yeah like a couple of excavators back hose we're doing a call on

651
01:06:08,540 --> 01:06:16,380
yeah and then we got and then we got a little bit of fio na at that right here at the start

652
01:06:16,380 --> 01:06:23,820
or a teaser of what's to come where fio na has to rely on frankie to get some

653
01:06:23,820 --> 01:06:29,180
documents forged and uh it's a whole ordeal

654
01:06:29,180 --> 01:06:36,540
but uh they like they they work it out like it's not like they off like

655
01:06:36,540 --> 01:06:43,020
yeah they're not off on a good foot uh they they they have a rocky start

656
01:06:43,900 --> 01:06:52,380
they get into disguises and go to a disco to meet this uh this forger not one of our forchers but

657
01:06:52,380 --> 01:07:02,620
but but the but this guy whose name is only mr quill and they get into a long chase sequence with these

658
01:07:02,620 --> 01:07:12,220
agents of the state and that's that's a whole that's one whole mess again

659
01:07:12,220 --> 01:07:18,140
and freaky vows and never to work with fio na ever again that doesn't work out or that doesn't have

660
01:07:18,140 --> 01:07:21,420
but we'll we will see about that

661
01:07:21,420 --> 01:07:30,940
yeah uh we immediately it's like hey okay we're back that's it's a fun it's a fun sitcom shenanigans

662
01:07:30,940 --> 01:07:35,820
and then we also have some fun action shenanigans and these are cool characters and

663
01:07:35,820 --> 01:07:43,180
there's a cool setting and it's always funny for me to pick up on these little knots to

664
01:07:43,180 --> 01:07:50,380
this being which was established before that this is set in a kind of fictionalized version of

665
01:07:50,380 --> 01:07:55,660
separated western east per uh germany slash Berlin or Berlin to our heart

666
01:07:55,660 --> 01:08:01,340
actually considering it's called Berlin yeah during the cold war uh but it still made me

667
01:08:01,340 --> 01:08:07,420
chuckle when the contact phrase frankie sends to the doc to mr quill to the document forger via radio

668
01:08:07,420 --> 01:08:14,060
program is the other day i went to bian on a work trip it's spelled differently but it's still by

669
01:08:14,060 --> 01:08:21,180
on the german word for bavaria i appreciate this nonsense i think that's great the other the other great

670
01:08:21,180 --> 01:08:26,140
thing is a character that is introduced i think in the next episode immediately which is madame

671
01:08:26,140 --> 01:08:32,300
schlag oh god who dishes out the punishment for uncouth behavior at the academy like the tonitron

672
01:08:32,300 --> 01:08:40,780
bolts or whatever they're called and her name is donna schlag um which is a pun on the german word

673
01:08:40,780 --> 01:08:47,500
donna schlag which means thunder strike and she dishes out thunderbolts so i i had no idea that was

674
01:08:47,500 --> 01:08:52,300
like who shrew me of course but that's why i wanted to bring it up because like okay

675
01:08:52,300 --> 01:09:04,780
it's by family your pun game is is a class i accept it oh man but yeah uh damian is afraid he's gonna get

676
01:09:04,780 --> 01:09:13,020
a tonitrust bolt for not having his hanker chief so anye gives her to him thinking she has a spare

677
01:09:13,020 --> 01:09:21,740
and she doesn't and she gets a bolt and Lloyd passes out learning that this is her second bolt

678
01:09:22,540 --> 01:09:29,820
oh no and it's during this moment this is a danger yes it's at this moment that we get flashbacks to

679
01:09:29,820 --> 01:09:38,060
asian twilight's past and fucking finally we don't not damn we don't ever get his name but we

680
01:09:38,060 --> 01:09:46,380
sure learn a lot about him yes it's crazy like uh i was asking for this shit for like two

681
01:09:46,380 --> 01:09:52,700
slash three seasons uh to finally gets into the background of Lloyd because we've always been

682
01:09:52,700 --> 01:09:58,860
teased before we saw like a couple of one second scenes him standing in rubble and crying and whatever

683
01:09:58,860 --> 01:10:02,540
and we never knew what this was about and now we get the whole shabang

684
01:10:02,540 --> 01:10:11,020
literal bang uh and it's it's really like it's dark like in general this season was a lot of had a

685
01:10:11,020 --> 01:10:15,500
lot of tense and dark moments when compared to the others i mean the other seasons had that

686
01:10:15,500 --> 01:10:21,820
partially too but not like this one like we get all of it like we see he had kind of a shitty anime dead

687
01:10:21,820 --> 01:10:31,340
and uh you know that episode ends on a very like the first episode that tackles that story

688
01:10:31,340 --> 01:10:38,860
ends on this like super serious note where like the city is attacked that uh he's that Lloyd was living in

689
01:10:39,820 --> 01:10:50,780
and he thinks everyone died and uh i mean his family did die but he also thought his friends died

690
01:10:50,780 --> 01:10:58,380
and uh he meets them later when he joins the the army or whatever but also they don't make it that

691
01:10:58,380 --> 01:11:06,380
much longer after he you know gets reacquainted with them uh but it's it's it's it's cool we learned so

692
01:11:06,380 --> 01:11:11,740
many cool tidbits like uh we have this really interesting discussion about labels and preconceived notions

693
01:11:11,740 --> 01:11:17,740
with Frankie and the its experiment he tells Lloyd about when they meet for the first time in the woods

694
01:11:17,740 --> 01:11:27,980
uh in regards to um why uh how people reacted to uh to a person getting beat up in a stage play and

695
01:11:27,980 --> 01:11:34,140
whatever uh before and after later loads certain things about it so that that was really interesting

696
01:11:34,140 --> 01:11:41,580
so i'd haven't seen something like that from this show before and um we learn uh who recruited uh

697
01:11:41,580 --> 01:11:48,380
who recruited Lloyd into a wise which was of course Kenjiro Tsuda who else could it be of course and

698
01:11:48,380 --> 01:11:59,820
and uh yeah like uh he is all about like ignorance is is is is a weakness and a sin which explains why

699
01:11:59,820 --> 01:12:08,460
Lloyd became obsessed with gathering info uh and you know he's still shitty at his job when it comes to

700
01:12:08,460 --> 01:12:15,660
his family though but aside from that i guess he does a good job he he made something of himself in

701
01:12:15,660 --> 01:12:21,740
regards to being an info collector and applying that information to you know self-as-mission order

702
01:12:21,740 --> 01:12:32,300
whatever but uh yeah that really really nice set of 1.5 episodes like now we know how Lloyd came to

703
01:12:32,300 --> 01:12:39,020
be who he is and what is dry his driving motivation behind his work or what that might be even though he

704
01:12:39,020 --> 01:12:46,860
claims that he doesn't care about anything besides doing his job even if his his instructor knows that's

705
01:12:46,860 --> 01:12:54,460
a lie and calls him out on it um but yeah this this is what i would want all of spy family to be like give

706
01:12:54,460 --> 01:12:59,500
me like one or two episodes of silly sitcom shenanigans and then at least two episodes of serious

707
01:12:59,500 --> 01:13:04,780
character and story stuff i think that rhythm would suit the show and my tastes better and i mean we

708
01:13:04,780 --> 01:13:09,900
get a lot more of that in this season that's why i really liked it um but i hope that's a trend that

709
01:13:09,900 --> 01:13:15,260
will continue because the previous seasons didn't necessarily have that even the mission stuff was

710
01:13:15,260 --> 01:13:23,340
often very goofy and didn't really feel like it let anywhere or any new discovery or development really

711
01:13:23,340 --> 01:13:30,860
and were like more these close off missions that were only tangentially related to the main mission

712
01:13:30,860 --> 01:13:36,940
of the story and i feel like this season kind of goes into a very different direction and make some

713
01:13:36,940 --> 01:13:42,220
serious plot progression like you said i really enjoyed that did uh i assume you did as well oh yeah for

714
01:13:42,220 --> 01:13:50,300
sure like i mean i feel like we've gotten a pretty good amount at this point about most of the characters

715
01:13:50,300 --> 01:13:56,540
so i mean maybe there's some gaps that might get filled in later as we go on but this kind of

716
01:13:56,540 --> 01:14:06,700
paves the way for the overwork and plot to continue as it is so yeah absolutely uh and again

717
01:14:07,580 --> 01:14:15,020
the little details are great uh they uh in the flashback there is like this uh scene where uh

718
01:14:15,020 --> 01:14:27,100
where loit by some year at uh or some food at a stand and they even created pretty accurate all

719
01:14:27,100 --> 01:14:32,620
German uh currency like the panic which is old coins which we don't use anymore since the introduction

720
01:14:32,620 --> 01:14:42,860
of the euro but there was our main small coin sent equivalent um back in the day and they even put

721
01:14:42,860 --> 01:14:47,580
that in the show and it looked pretty convincing to me it's like whoa okay i haven't seen that

722
01:14:47,580 --> 01:14:55,900
kind of coin in ages that's crazy that's in this show i didn't expect that dedication to detail

723
01:14:55,900 --> 01:15:01,580
uh even though it's just a fictionalized version of of a germany that this is set in but i really like that

724
01:15:01,580 --> 01:15:08,620
so hey did they did some research absolutely yeah that's not only for show it's that's really cool

725
01:15:08,620 --> 01:15:17,020
uh i mean there are some more blunt things where i'm like like the turkish spy coat name is kebab

726
01:15:17,020 --> 01:15:25,020
really come on spy family are you serious i mean they're not but come on

727
01:15:27,420 --> 01:15:32,060
it's fine don't worry i don't have to feel about that it's fine don't worry about it

728
01:15:32,060 --> 01:15:41,260
but yeah um yeah there's that in general there were some a lot of neat little things aside from

729
01:15:41,260 --> 01:15:46,380
this also being a very plot heavy iteration of the show that stood out to me like it critt it

730
01:15:46,380 --> 01:15:53,020
like there were a lot of moments criticizing blindly believing cheap propaganda by tabloids for example

731
01:15:53,020 --> 01:16:01,900
which is very contemporary i mean it always has been but even more so today and uh that was uh that

732
01:16:01,900 --> 01:16:10,540
was very interesting um and uh yeah so that big burst of plot related episodes and the backdrop

733
01:16:10,540 --> 01:16:16,860
sorry of loin was one of my favorites from recent season uh from recent season but of course we

734
01:16:17,820 --> 01:16:24,140
get also you know smaller uh more funny stuff in the shrink a sprinkler than between after that

735
01:16:24,140 --> 01:16:32,460
also we think because what happens next is yorket's drafted into a volleyball team um consisting

736
01:16:32,460 --> 01:16:39,180
exclusively of mothers and you think okay this is like hey your needs to be wants to become a better

737
01:16:39,180 --> 01:16:47,580
mom and everything for ania and uh has a problem because she's a weird child woman uh who

738
01:16:47,580 --> 01:16:54,140
for some reason doesn't know shit about anything and uh still manages to be an assassin i mean that's

739
01:16:54,140 --> 01:17:01,180
one way to word it but you're not wrong yes so it's like okay okay so this is gonna be like

740
01:17:01,180 --> 01:17:06,140
this mini arc and it's only gonna be she's gonna be come friends with these moms and learn how to

741
01:17:06,140 --> 01:17:11,180
I don't know better cook or shit and then it turns out the team leader is millinda dacman some

742
01:17:11,180 --> 01:17:19,100
damian's mom and now the forges have an additional in or is it because you know

743
01:17:19,100 --> 01:17:24,940
londar eloyd wonders if this was set up by the dacman family for some reason there's definitely

744
01:17:24,940 --> 01:17:29,100
something weird about millinda especially down the road when we see her together with

745
01:17:29,100 --> 01:17:35,740
loyd after the next big series story point where it's like something is something is not right with

746
01:17:35,740 --> 01:17:44,540
this woman and um i mean something is not right with this dad either but um yeah uh it's like okay she

747
01:17:44,540 --> 01:17:48,860
seems to hate and love damian at the same time you don't know what that is about and everything

748
01:17:48,860 --> 01:17:56,060
and uh but hey even when this season when she's like okay this is just gonna be a one off thing

749
01:17:56,060 --> 01:18:02,380
no no no this is actually gonna probably further the main mission at the plot and like hello

750
01:18:03,180 --> 01:18:09,100
i was asking for this the entire time how did it take you so long to get to doing this this is great

751
01:18:09,100 --> 01:18:21,020
so yes i i was overjoyed to you know have that happen and you know there's these little bit

752
01:18:21,020 --> 01:18:29,740
sprinkled in here that set up future important events i think because after i think it was uh

753
01:18:29,740 --> 01:18:35,740
after the the volleyball episodes like your bi-accessant drops the info in a conversation with her

754
01:18:35,740 --> 01:18:41,180
handler the shopkeeper that loyth said in a conversation with her that he is interested in the

755
01:18:41,180 --> 01:18:48,540
national unity party which definitely doesn't go unnoticed by the shopkeeper and i'm like oh

756
01:18:48,540 --> 01:18:54,300
someone paid way too much attention to what you just said and that's not good

757
01:18:55,020 --> 01:19:02,940
oh so i'm like oh i mean not necessarily something doesn't necessarily something i have to come

758
01:19:02,940 --> 01:19:12,140
off this but at this point i kind of get a feeling the show when the show drops these kind of little

759
01:19:12,140 --> 01:19:16,860
things these little expressions of characters and faces you have to pay attention because that

760
01:19:16,860 --> 01:19:24,300
can be a setup for future things it has done this before so i'm like okay um careful here he

761
01:19:24,300 --> 01:19:31,660
that guy might now be suspecting something uh and yeah it's it's cool it's uh i i really really like that

762
01:19:31,660 --> 01:19:38,140
and hey of course we have silly shit that is also kind of related to the the the main mission like

763
01:19:38,140 --> 01:19:44,060
with the doctor who is jealous of loyth and cause the state security service on him claiming he's

764
01:19:44,060 --> 01:19:51,420
a spy the irony of course being that loyth really is one but you know it turns out loyth

765
01:19:51,420 --> 01:19:55,980
appreciated anticipated this somehow and had frankie and fio not catch the call and pretend to be

766
01:19:55,980 --> 01:20:02,940
state agents but it was still fun um that's so i don't how could he anticipate that but everything

767
01:20:02,940 --> 01:20:09,420
else i know it's just my family it's so now that one in particular i was like okay i get your

768
01:20:09,420 --> 01:20:14,780
prepared for a lot of things loyth but how did you catch this one i guess because that the i forgot

769
01:20:14,780 --> 01:20:19,180
his name the doctor would be the kind of person that would eventually call the

770
01:20:20,300 --> 01:20:25,180
state security service on loyth because he wants to get him out of the way the problem is the timing

771
01:20:25,180 --> 01:20:32,140
like how would you know when exactly he would do that yeah that's it's just crazy like did you just

772
01:20:32,140 --> 01:20:40,220
when did you decide to to i don't know to hack his phone line or whatever um right from the beginning

773
01:20:40,220 --> 01:20:46,300
but it didn't look like you did that so i don't know it's all right it's weird but it's also spy

774
01:20:46,300 --> 01:20:53,580
family so it's at least funny you can hear tachy heto koya su play a flustered loser oh yeah absolutely

775
01:20:53,580 --> 01:21:01,100
great because that's what doctor gory is he's a loser he's an absolute loser like especially

776
01:21:01,100 --> 01:21:06,620
i love this attack it's with fio not who's just oh my god oh there's some soldiers it's

777
01:21:07,660 --> 01:21:15,100
fio not charn i love you oh get out of here that's that's nice what do you want doctor

778
01:21:15,100 --> 01:21:24,940
yeah leave uh yeah she's amazing and we'll get to that um yeah becky keeps on watching too many

779
01:21:24,940 --> 01:21:31,580
anime rom coms as has been established before everything that ania does she kind of likes to that

780
01:21:31,580 --> 01:21:39,020
and also she's still way too obsessed with loit but it's fun um then we get the next series bit where we

781
01:21:39,020 --> 01:21:49,660
have like a school bus abduction by like this terrorist organization um yeah the kids are

782
01:21:49,660 --> 01:21:55,900
around a way to a field trip to a museum and they get bus checked by the red circuits yeah which

783
01:21:55,900 --> 01:22:03,340
again another wild reference from german history i did not expect to see because this is obviously

784
01:22:03,340 --> 01:22:12,460
a reference to the red army faction uh which was um left wing terrorist group uh from the 70s to

785
01:22:12,460 --> 01:22:21,660
mid 90s that killed a lot of people in germany oh so yeah so that that name is no coincidence so uh

786
01:22:22,540 --> 01:22:28,300
that's yeah it was super wild to me like there's not much correlation to the real red army faction

787
01:22:28,300 --> 01:22:34,780
with the characters that are he displayed here but it was still fun doing them doing that and also some

788
01:22:34,780 --> 01:22:40,380
of the political motivation and everything kind of kind of mirrors what they were trying to do i guess

789
01:22:40,380 --> 01:22:47,980
it was still wild to see that in a fucking sitcom anime that's just what the fuck is this reference

790
01:22:47,980 --> 01:22:55,660
during your holy shit uh wild just wild um and what also one of the funniest scenes in the season

791
01:22:55,660 --> 01:23:05,580
when it comes to ania when um she and damian damian get bombed strap to them and when damian

792
01:23:05,580 --> 01:23:09,260
gets his strap to many walks past ania and she's like oh we match

793
01:23:11,660 --> 01:23:20,220
it got me so good and fucking expression that is reaction to that amazing like just oh we match

794
01:23:20,220 --> 01:23:28,460
in that she's absolutely fearless when she reads the uh what was the name of billy's mind

795
01:23:28,460 --> 01:23:32,140
is like oh it's not an actual bomb and she's like oh okay she

796
01:23:32,140 --> 01:23:38,300
but it's not like it's not all fun and games in that episode like it gets really serious

797
01:23:38,300 --> 01:23:44,620
yeah or moment in the finale and i also like that that rarely happens like i feel like ania is never

798
01:23:44,620 --> 01:23:50,700
put has not really been put into that much peril and to know well in the movie definitely

799
01:23:50,700 --> 01:23:59,020
but in the serious proper uh on occasion because she's around when shit happens to

800
01:23:59,020 --> 01:24:07,260
to your and loyet but not necessarily she as the target and she definitely was the target here

801
01:24:08,060 --> 01:24:14,300
so uh or one of the targets all the kids were so that was a very hairy moment and i also like the

802
01:24:14,300 --> 01:24:19,420
villain is uh or at least you know the main villain billy because the spec stories another good

803
01:24:19,420 --> 01:24:28,940
serious moment in the season with a stater and everything uh like cool i mean except for the name

804
01:24:28,940 --> 01:24:33,420
of a stater like your name is billy and you name your daughter bitty like that's cool shit

805
01:24:35,020 --> 01:24:41,500
it's just that's a right uh bimmy and jimmy oh my god don't do it

806
01:24:41,500 --> 01:24:49,580
i mean at least get you to sympathize with him a little bit totally yes yes yes and i mean he does

807
01:24:49,580 --> 01:24:57,180
the right thing by the end right so that's cool uh i i really like that that little arc as well

808
01:24:57,180 --> 01:25:06,460
was really intense and exciting and funny and and and uh and serious so it was cool uh and then at the

809
01:25:06,460 --> 01:25:11,660
end tail of that we get the thing that i earlier talked about where i was wondering if belinda

810
01:25:11,660 --> 01:25:18,780
dasmond has like the split personality disorder the way she reacts to her son uh she doesn't seem

811
01:25:18,780 --> 01:25:26,540
very happy that he's safe yeah not really right like it feels it starts like that or if the show makes you

812
01:25:26,540 --> 01:25:33,180
think that she's happy and then you get a glimpse into her mind and it's like uh what the fuck is going

813
01:25:33,180 --> 01:25:40,060
on there and uh yeah i'm wondering i they're probably gonna go into that and uh right now it feels

814
01:25:40,060 --> 01:25:47,420
like there's a really sinister undertone to her character so um interested to see where this goes

815
01:25:47,420 --> 01:25:53,660
and i hope we'll find out in the next season actually because that's then we a story a bit i want to

816
01:25:53,660 --> 01:26:00,380
learn a lot more about um one of the next things that happens was one of the few things about the

817
01:26:00,380 --> 01:26:07,020
season i didn't like maybe for personal reasons we have like Lloyd posing as a psychiatrist for a

818
01:26:07,020 --> 01:26:14,620
teacher which is played for laughs but i was really uncomfortable with that because the teacher was

819
01:26:14,620 --> 01:26:22,060
still like suffering from PTSD due to the hostage situation and i guess a shitty wife yeah

820
01:26:22,060 --> 01:26:29,260
uh and i get that it's Lloyd's mission that he is good at pretending to be other people

821
01:26:29,260 --> 01:26:35,900
but the teacher seemed to be a good guy and it felt like such a violation of a doctor patient

822
01:26:35,900 --> 01:26:41,580
trust relationship that guy like what what Lloyd was doing there like that guy needed a real

823
01:26:41,580 --> 01:26:47,260
professional and not just a guy pretending to be one out for his own quote unquote gain

824
01:26:47,980 --> 01:26:55,500
i mean i guess it was kind of clear this was going on but i think the series never put such a big

825
01:26:55,500 --> 01:27:01,180
spotlight on the fact that Lloyd is conning people in need when he is posing as a doctor which is his

826
01:27:01,180 --> 01:27:08,140
main disguise right like it's nice if the guy gets better through his talks with Lloyd but that is

827
01:27:08,140 --> 01:27:13,820
more a happy accident or coincidence than anything else not to mention that Fiona is listening in on

828
01:27:13,820 --> 01:27:22,220
it and the conversation is probably taped which is fucking gross yeah and he has been doing it to more

829
01:27:22,220 --> 01:27:28,860
people than this guy probably so uh that was one of the moments where it's like hi i guess you didn't

830
01:27:28,860 --> 01:27:36,060
put that much thought into what Lloyd's disguise is and what he's really doing here to innocent people

831
01:27:36,060 --> 01:27:42,380
so i'm like uh but you know that was just a very small moment it was like half an episode where

832
01:27:42,380 --> 01:27:49,100
this happened and then i can gloss over that i guess but it was that was the only thing in the season where

833
01:27:49,100 --> 01:27:57,820
i was like eh did that have to be in this didn't give me good feeling so uh yeah it felt a bit

834
01:27:57,820 --> 01:28:03,420
wrong headed that was a little eesh but maybe hey maybe that's also an ask for ignoring it this all

835
01:28:03,420 --> 01:28:07,100
this all the time but also the show didn't like i said didn't put a spotlight on it like didn't

836
01:28:07,900 --> 01:28:13,980
didn't make it a theme or whatever and now it was like it makes you think like okay how many how many

837
01:28:13,980 --> 01:28:19,980
people's lives did he make worse by not actually being a professional psychiatrist but telling people

838
01:28:19,980 --> 01:28:27,900
shit like superficial garbage that actually doesn't help them probably a lot yes so hmm

839
01:28:27,900 --> 01:28:33,820
what was nice i was seeing you're come out of her shell and making connections with her co-workers

840
01:28:34,540 --> 01:28:41,900
they notice a two it only results in a problem where she gets drunk again which is also not a

841
01:28:41,900 --> 01:28:47,660
character archetype thing i like but also i've complained about it in the previous season too

842
01:28:47,660 --> 01:28:52,700
is like that you're as a bad drunk she's a wine mom and it's like

843
01:28:52,700 --> 01:29:02,380
he i get it and ha ha woman is drunk and punches the guy uh because she gets embarrassed that's

844
01:29:02,380 --> 01:29:08,380
typical anime humor but it's not my humor but that also doesn't really happen here like

845
01:29:08,380 --> 01:29:14,140
because she thinks she has to find gripes because that is part of the married life and everything

846
01:29:14,140 --> 01:29:21,500
and she gets tries to create conflict a drama out of nothing which i usually also hate but thankfully

847
01:29:21,500 --> 01:29:27,100
also that gets resolved really quickly like from one episode to the next where she like confesses

848
01:29:27,100 --> 01:29:33,660
to light that that's what she was doing and i was fine with it in this case it's like okay

849
01:29:33,660 --> 01:29:40,140
that's absolutely not my thing but at least they didn't linger on it yeah so say if they

850
01:29:40,140 --> 01:29:45,500
dragged it out like maybe two three episodes i probably would've been like all right come on guys but

851
01:29:45,500 --> 01:29:52,940
since they kind of went over it real quick i was saying that's that's fine i guess yeah yeah

852
01:29:52,940 --> 01:29:59,020
absolutely it's just for the setup is just super wild when like their co-workers are like hey

853
01:29:59,020 --> 01:30:05,100
did your marriage can't be perfect what's what's going on there and all she had to tell them really

854
01:30:05,100 --> 01:30:09,820
was that they're sleeping in separate beds and have no physical relationship whatsoever

855
01:30:09,820 --> 01:30:13,820
which would have been the ridiculous truth by the way and by the way and would have gotten them

856
01:30:13,820 --> 01:30:20,380
off her back yes why didn't she just do that probably because she doesn't know that that would be normal

857
01:30:20,380 --> 01:30:29,420
in a relationship i don't know um hmm yeah weird character like i said uh and if you need it any more

858
01:30:29,420 --> 01:30:34,540
proof that alcohol is absolutely dangerous look no further than this this set of episode

859
01:30:34,540 --> 01:30:42,540
always drink in moderation everyone yes i mean she only had one glass right she's just a very

860
01:30:43,420 --> 01:30:54,380
she's a lightweight always drink in moderation but yeah uh but you know that that was that and then we

861
01:30:54,380 --> 01:31:04,380
get i guess to the last last part of this season and again a serious one uh the the wise is trying to

862
01:31:04,380 --> 01:31:11,020
what are they trying to do they trying to get all right there is like this they had this by

863
01:31:12,140 --> 01:31:22,540
inside their agency who apparently stole a list of of activities of wise in east Berlin right

864
01:31:22,540 --> 01:31:28,780
in ishtania or ishtania in general and has all the names on them and locations so if that gets

865
01:31:28,780 --> 01:31:34,940
into the hand of the ishtania state security service they're fucked like the you know

866
01:31:36,220 --> 01:31:42,620
mission like operation streaks everything is like in super dangerous so every it's all hands on deck

867
01:31:42,620 --> 01:31:50,300
have to find the guy and get the list back very mission impossible one kind of there was also about

868
01:31:50,300 --> 01:32:00,700
them stealing the not list i guess um but yeah it feels like they they have the everyone like

869
01:32:00,700 --> 01:32:04,220
fooled and have everything on a control then it turns out the state security actually

870
01:32:04,220 --> 01:32:10,460
says up a pretty decent trip for wise yeah that was actually really interesting the way that was super

871
01:32:10,460 --> 01:32:17,580
tense that was like holy shit okay wow this is this might be the first time that they really got

872
01:32:17,580 --> 01:32:23,500
outmaneuvered by state security and then when they find out the person on their side who leaked

873
01:32:23,500 --> 01:32:31,260
what was apparent what was false information given to everyone on their team yes yes yes

874
01:32:31,260 --> 01:32:36,540
and how did he know he should show up wearing a yellow pinned tie

875
01:32:36,540 --> 01:32:43,980
it's like oh i mentioned different colors to different people and the color he showed up with is

876
01:32:43,980 --> 01:32:51,820
the one that i only told to you i was really smart there was a good strap it's so good yes yes

877
01:32:51,820 --> 01:32:57,260
and it was a really tense moment when that was revealed and real oh shit moments oh okay things are

878
01:32:57,260 --> 01:33:07,580
getting really serious and that leads to a confrontation between uh Yuri and Lloyd uh you being a bit

879
01:33:07,580 --> 01:33:15,820
of a terminator here oh yeah Yuri was nuts these episodes getting always getting back up super

880
01:33:15,820 --> 01:33:22,220
super resistant to Lloyd's attack and so on was crazy like log content even contemplates killing him

881
01:33:22,220 --> 01:33:26,460
which would have been the safest thing to do for the mission but he can't go through with it because he

882
01:33:26,460 --> 01:33:33,660
is thinking of the grief this might cause your of course because and if that comes back around to

883
01:33:33,660 --> 01:33:43,900
your that her quote unquote husband killed her brother yeah yeah exactly and but i wonder do you

884
01:33:43,900 --> 01:33:51,820
think he is worried that that might ultimately uh endangered a mission or is it because he has

885
01:33:51,820 --> 01:33:57,740
already developed feelings for you and that's why he can't do it i wonder if i wonder if it's a little

886
01:33:57,740 --> 01:34:05,340
of both honestly probably yeah yeah i i could see it being a little of each but maybe maybe at this

887
01:34:05,340 --> 01:34:11,260
point more about the mission but i think there's a little bit of that he actually cares about your in

888
01:34:11,260 --> 01:34:17,660
there as well i mean it's good because it's clear he clear clear clear he cares about uh your and

889
01:34:17,660 --> 01:34:23,660
Anya to a degree absolutely i mean the show has teased that before like where this moments where

890
01:34:23,660 --> 01:34:30,460
these moments where they have like this this family bliss moment right that that he never had like

891
01:34:30,460 --> 01:34:38,540
he had shitty dad i mean here apparently at this mom um but you know was robbed of both of them pretty

892
01:34:38,540 --> 01:34:48,780
quickly um and uh you know had to was considered it was a part of the military early early on even

893
01:34:48,780 --> 01:34:53,500
earlier than he was allowed to and so on so he didn't really have much of a real childhood and

894
01:34:53,500 --> 01:35:00,540
everything and people he was emotionally connected to for a long time and this moment these moments of

895
01:35:00,540 --> 01:35:11,820
peace uh and tranquility and you know um uh feeling safe uh and protected that he experiences with Anya and

896
01:35:11,820 --> 01:35:20,620
your uh you you you the show already shows us that this is doing something to him that this is

897
01:35:20,620 --> 01:35:27,020
making him uh causing a change to his character but you're right we don't know if that already has

898
01:35:27,020 --> 01:35:33,820
progressed so far that he is now doing this because he wants to protect uh these two people

899
01:35:33,820 --> 01:35:40,940
outside of the mission or not mainly because of the mission but because he cares for them

900
01:35:40,940 --> 01:35:45,180
or if it's still mostly the mission why he's doing it for the get the show plays a bit with that so

901
01:35:45,180 --> 01:35:51,660
it's really i'm really interested uh to see when we're gonna get them the the the definitive like

902
01:35:52,300 --> 01:36:00,060
confirmation that he is doing that because he uh he's doing what he's doing because he has uh

903
01:36:00,060 --> 01:36:07,260
started having feelings for his like made up family uh and my assumption is this will probably

904
01:36:07,260 --> 01:36:17,180
happen by the point whenever that will come when he would have to kill your to save his mission

905
01:36:17,180 --> 01:36:24,940
or have to uh have to tell wise that she is an assassin from the other side and i don't know

906
01:36:24,940 --> 01:36:30,060
something like that i would assume that would then lead to the final confirmation that he can't go

907
01:36:30,060 --> 01:36:35,820
through with that because uh his family means more him to him than his mission at some point or

908
01:36:35,820 --> 01:36:45,420
way he has to decide between the mission uh a definitive moment where he would risk a mission uh by

909
01:36:46,940 --> 01:36:57,260
uh doing something to protect your and ania which i don't think we have had yet uh for uh until now i

910
01:36:57,260 --> 01:37:04,540
think protecting them always has aligned with protecting the mission and i wonder when we'll get a

911
01:37:04,540 --> 01:37:11,100
moment where debt is not a case anymore where protecting them will actively massively endanger the

912
01:37:11,100 --> 01:37:18,300
mission so very interested to see uh well when we will go for that uh get get there but um

913
01:37:18,300 --> 01:37:24,780
this season at this point is not over because we have the final confrontation with the guy who stole

914
01:37:24,780 --> 01:37:32,940
the the the the list uh with Wheeler not show Wheeler uh so i forgot what his first name was but

915
01:37:32,940 --> 01:37:39,100
the last name was Wheeler i think uh i don't remember if they ever say his first name but yeah maybe

916
01:37:39,100 --> 01:37:47,660
it's just Wheeler uh he actually they have like you know this long chase of Fiona Chases and some

917
01:37:47,660 --> 01:37:53,500
otherwise agents chase after him and they end up in the sewers where Lloyd already is with this

918
01:37:53,500 --> 01:38:03,180
confrontation with Yuri who he knocks out ultimately um and then you know uh Wheeler

919
01:38:04,780 --> 01:38:12,060
manages to subdue Lloyd and it looks like he like has him in a hold and is would be able to kill him by

920
01:38:12,060 --> 01:38:21,100
snapping his neck i think and uh with that he's Fiona has him at gunpoint but then he has Lloyd

921
01:38:21,100 --> 01:38:30,140
hostage and of course Lloyd is Fiona's only weakness which doesn't matter though because he hurt

922
01:38:30,140 --> 01:38:36,140
the one thing she loves so he gets an arm-breaking punch to the face

923
01:38:36,140 --> 01:38:43,500
yes the limiter just gets turned off entirely literally like the show actually is like hey there

924
01:38:43,500 --> 01:38:47,900
most people have a limiter because if they would use their full power they would seriously hurt their

925
01:38:47,900 --> 01:38:56,620
body that woman's limiter just got turned off he owners like no no that isn't happening you bitch

926
01:38:56,620 --> 01:39:02,540
oh man i love Yoda so much like she's so awesome sorry you're but she's absolutely the best girl of

927
01:39:02,540 --> 01:39:08,700
the show like they weigh her our brakes and multiple places because she puts so much force into that

928
01:39:08,700 --> 01:39:19,180
punch man it's brutal oh god so gross so awful i show that i was like oh yeah but man that is just

929
01:39:19,180 --> 01:39:25,180
that that's how that episode ends with that first punch and in the continuation of that scene in

930
01:39:25,180 --> 01:39:32,460
the next episode we get a cool vocal track it's specifically to her i guess amazing like get yourself

931
01:39:32,460 --> 01:39:38,060
a girl that is willing to punch your enemy so hard that she dislocates her shoulder for your set

932
01:39:38,060 --> 01:39:46,220
for life man oh i love you now she's amazing i really would love if Lloyd and her ended up together

933
01:39:46,220 --> 01:39:51,340
even though i know that is not gonna happen or see and you're are gonna end up together and

934
01:39:51,340 --> 01:39:55,900
Anja is gonna and he's gonna fully adopt Anja and everything they're gonna be happy with family

935
01:39:55,900 --> 01:40:02,060
that's how this show must end but still i wish all the luck in the world to Fiona and you know

936
01:40:02,060 --> 01:40:07,660
if she can't be with Lloyd i hope she finds someone else she's happy with oh she's happy alone

937
01:40:07,660 --> 01:40:14,700
by that point but hey i just want her to be happy because she's amazing every every scene in

938
01:40:14,700 --> 01:40:20,860
this show with Fiona is great she's she's my favorite character i can't help it like and this

939
01:40:20,860 --> 01:40:28,300
was this cemented that once again because god damn that's seed that punch against weeler both punches

940
01:40:28,300 --> 01:40:35,660
uh no was the other one a kick no she one punch one kick and another hey maker with a broken

941
01:40:35,660 --> 01:40:45,820
arm that she delivers so fucking good like god damn i mean we ended on like chapter 89 of i think

942
01:40:45,820 --> 01:40:53,340
the latest is a hundred and thirty one which looks like it released just today actually so the story

943
01:40:53,340 --> 01:41:03,020
continues and you never know what might happen i worry i mean it would be cool but i i i feel the

944
01:41:03,020 --> 01:41:08,940
show is all about them becoming a real family and i don't see how Fiona would figure into that

945
01:41:08,940 --> 01:41:15,660
unless she's content with pining for Lloyd forever and just being an arrivals with

946
01:41:15,660 --> 01:41:21,660
your forever this could also be the case and being like at the end of the show i will win him

947
01:41:21,660 --> 01:41:28,620
to my side your forger you will not get him ultimately and if it takes me uh takes me until the end

948
01:41:28,620 --> 01:41:34,620
of my life slay maybe they will end it like that but i doubt i mean i could could definitely see her

949
01:41:34,620 --> 01:41:39,980
doing that so yeah let's see let's see let's see but it's probably gonna be a long while until that

950
01:41:39,980 --> 01:41:49,660
happens so uh hey but hey this was a great season of spy family man like hey this finally delivered a

951
01:41:49,660 --> 01:41:56,540
lot of the stuff that i've been complaining or clamoring for since the first season was like hey i

952
01:41:56,540 --> 01:42:02,140
would like to have a bit more plot in this and especially plot that relates to the main mission

953
01:42:02,140 --> 01:42:07,340
and we definitely got that we got that with the first arc with with Lloyd's backstory then we get

954
01:42:07,340 --> 01:42:14,940
the abuzz abduction where the introduction of of of Damien's mom uh and all the weirdness that comes

955
01:42:14,940 --> 01:42:23,260
with that we get uh now there is a small they kind of diffuse that by the end but

956
01:42:23,260 --> 01:42:30,780
there is like probably now this seeds sewn into Yuri's mind because Lloyd got um

957
01:42:31,500 --> 01:42:44,840
got hurt in the fight and there is this small moment where Yuri suspects Lloyd for having a cut on his arm from their fight and of course Lloyd has, you know, massed this with some kind of

958
01:42:44,840 --> 01:42:53,320
consummate agent and so on, but that idea has now been placed in Yuri's hat, even if he said, oh, it's ridiculous, that can't be happening.

959
01:42:54,160 --> 01:43:18,340
But is it only go back to that eventually the idea is still there. Yes, you know, you can't undo this and there are a lot of needs to sit little setups in the season that are happening with the shopkeeper tours like, oh, oh, man, I don't think Lloyd's position is safe as it was last season when it comes to people not finding out who he is.

960
01:43:19,220 --> 01:43:33,220
And man, that's really interesting. I like that. I like that the season finally went to do shit like that and things are getting more tense and we're getting closer to we're opening up more options into getting closer to the

961
01:43:33,220 --> 01:43:46,220
Desmond family and everything. So I hope the show keeps up that kind of pacing. It would be a bummer if it now went back to more of the sitcom shenanigans only instead of going for the plot driven stuff.

962
01:43:46,620 --> 01:44:11,300
But hey, if this is what we're going to get from spy family in the future seasons, I'm so in man, that's going to be amazing. That's exactly what I wanted from the show. A good mix between some fun shenanigans and then have plot driven stuff that does need setups for future developments. And yeah, I do wonder.

963
01:44:12,180 --> 01:44:39,580
And look at the number of chapters here real quick. How much further out they're willing to wait before they pick back up because we're about 40 chapters out from what's current and we covered 10, 20, about 30 chapters with this season. So if we jumped back in with the same pace, you'd get cut up real quick and it would be a lot more waiting to do on the next season after that.

964
01:44:40,260 --> 01:45:03,660
I mean, that's would be fine too. And I mean, I can throw in a movie in between if they want to because what was called white coat white was completely anime original. And if they want to have like a anime original stories, they can do that in that way and be like, Hey, so you don't have to wait for the TV series the entire time and there's something more to

965
01:45:05,180 --> 01:45:13,620
to carry you over until the next season comes. So we'll see, but also it doesn't seem like the manga is really releasing at a super slow pace, right?

966
01:45:13,620 --> 01:45:26,660
Because today is March 30th, which is when mission 131 released in the previous one released two weeks before. So I guess if a

967
01:45:27,300 --> 01:45:39,740
Tatsuya and O is going at that pace of a chapter every two weeks, yeah, and it will be a while until the next core is going to happen anyway. Like how long did we of a break that we have between two and three.

968
01:45:39,740 --> 01:45:44,420
Was that two two seasons or three season break?

969
01:45:44,420 --> 01:45:46,260
Oh,

970
01:45:46,260 --> 01:45:48,980
Let me see here.

971
01:45:48,980 --> 01:45:50,300
Was a while.

972
01:45:50,300 --> 01:45:54,180
The first season was 2022.

973
01:45:54,740 --> 01:45:57,020
Sex season was 2023.

974
01:45:57,020 --> 01:46:01,860
So there was about, yeah, there was two years in between season two and three.

975
01:46:01,860 --> 01:46:05,700
So two years for 30 chapters.

976
01:46:05,700 --> 01:46:19,300
So hey, by the time they have adapted the next 30 chapters, the manga will probably be ahead more or enough for them to also be able to be there will catch up eventually, of course.

977
01:46:19,300 --> 01:46:23,100
But hey, maybe they'll take also a three year break this time.

978
01:46:23,580 --> 01:46:40,580
Like this isn't me. This is not me saying Tatsuya and O needs to work faster. No, this is me worrying about, you know, just the amount of material and if they run it too fast and then people get too cranky about having to wait for the next day, which shut up, by the way.

979
01:46:40,580 --> 01:46:50,220
Exactly. Just give the show us as much time as they need, right? And I'd rather have that than have like one chapter per episode bullshit.

980
01:46:50,220 --> 01:46:52,140
No filler, please.

981
01:46:52,620 --> 01:46:59,060
Yeah, and no, I mean, filler sure, okay, in movie form, totally fine, but please not into show proper.

982
01:46:59,060 --> 01:47:11,100
Like, I guess there were some actual chapters in the manga that were filler, like, just, you know, this quickly little gag things like in particular, the moon landing episode.

983
01:47:11,100 --> 01:47:20,140
That was just like a little throw away side chapter that was like, oh, let's say, uh, Anya and you and geek out about going to space. And it's like, okay, that's cute.

984
01:47:20,180 --> 01:47:29,020
That's neat. You throw that in there. It'd be so often that's fine. And I mean, that totally fits the, the style of the show of being partially a sitcom, right?

985
01:47:29,020 --> 01:47:40,780
You can do that. The problem is when it becomes only that, at least for me, that's the problem for other people who might not be, but I like my plot driven anime.

986
01:47:40,780 --> 01:47:49,940
I like there to be when there is at least a potential for it to be a plot that gets continued, that gets progressed steadily.

987
01:47:50,380 --> 01:47:58,820
Was one of the problems that with the previous season of spy family, there was enough interesting in there in regards to basic setup, but the show kind of

988
01:47:58,820 --> 01:48:11,580
tread water a bit at times. It meandered a bit and it didn't feel like it was super interested in actually progressing that part beyond. Hey, now, Anya has to do this is cool to get closer to them in or whatever.

989
01:48:12,620 --> 01:48:41,100
But the missions itself didn't feel like they have a real integral part into progressing the actual, you know, main missions, main mission. And now I finally get to feeling, Oh, now we're getting there. This is now shit is happening and shit is going to happen in the next season. And there is new setups that make things more tense and we're going to have more, more actual, more actual dangerous situations for all our characters and

990
01:48:42,100 --> 01:48:53,100
with the more secrets uncovered and people and Lloyd and your endanger of being found out for who they are and that's the exciting part. That's what I want.

991
01:48:53,100 --> 01:49:06,500
I want that that that that 10-stramatic moments in in there and then have then you can have some fluffy in between sitcom shenanigans with Anya and everything and and I don't know.

992
01:49:07,500 --> 01:49:29,380
Bond, of course, Bond. We always want bond more of the dog more of the dog. So yes, like I said, this in regards to structure, pacing, flavor in general, this was the best season of spy family for me just in terms of what it is not necessarily like it had the best episode or something like that.

993
01:49:29,380 --> 01:49:56,380
Like the tennis match in in in was the second season was amazing like fantastic like I love that episode to bits. I just talk just in terms of complete season thing like everything the season had to offer. I think this was the best so far. Just a really high baseline in terms of quality in terms of what was happening in terms of pacing everything.

994
01:49:57,260 --> 01:50:08,660
The really really really good mix that I have been wanting from the show for a long time. So hey, I hope this is how it continues. I hope this is the flavor we're now stuck with and yeah.

995
01:50:08,660 --> 01:50:12,260
Definitely give me more of that.

996
01:50:12,260 --> 01:50:24,660
Yeah, as like a complete package, this was probably the tightest in best pace of the seasons so far, which is not to say seasons one or two were bad, but you know.

997
01:50:24,660 --> 01:50:30,060
This one kept us going at a really good pace and kept feeding us. It kept feeding us to good stuff, man.

998
01:50:30,060 --> 01:50:43,860
Keep feeding us to good stuff. We are hungry. And with that, we're done with the reviews for this season, but as usual, there's still one little thing we have to do.

999
01:50:50,500 --> 01:51:05,500
Best of the season. All right, best of the season time. John, I have more show saying it. Our potential candidate. So why don't you go? Why don't you go first one punch me in season three?

1000
01:51:05,500 --> 01:51:10,060
A million years.

1001
01:51:10,060 --> 01:51:19,300
I would have loved to say that, but so much bad overall shadowed the good in that season. Such a shame to see, but.

1002
01:51:20,180 --> 01:51:30,180
There were some good parts in that in that season. There were some hits in there. Definitely there were some good fights. There were some good moments, but there was so much bad stuff in there.

1003
01:51:30,180 --> 01:51:37,380
It just like it just was so outweighed by that and say, yeah, completely overshadowed it. Yeah.

1004
01:51:37,380 --> 01:51:51,380
Did we mention how the key visual for season three part two was literally just them taking the layers on the season three part one and just switching them around.

1005
01:51:51,380 --> 01:51:58,380
Oh, now, now, Garo and Saitama are facing each other instead of facing away from each other. Like shut up.

1006
01:52:00,380 --> 01:52:12,380
The lazy is seriously I could do better job. They use the eye for the for the fucking poster. I'm certainly used to for some of the animation, but anyway, I don't know.

1007
01:52:12,380 --> 01:52:27,380
To talk through this has to include some of the quick and the dead stuff as well, just because I've enjoyed touring after the apocalypse and it had me, like I say, I had me a lot of questions. I still answered.

1008
01:52:27,380 --> 01:52:42,380
Not sure. Not sure if I would name that as my favorite of this season.

1009
01:52:42,380 --> 01:52:53,380
And you know, Ronma, but it gets any that in here's the problem that Ronma and spy family all have the potential to come back like spy family is for sure.

1010
01:52:53,380 --> 01:53:14,380
There's no word on touring or Ronma yet, but I could see them as some point down the line coming back. I mean, Ronma was handled at believe, believe I with studio and they always have their hands full with everything.

1011
01:53:14,380 --> 01:53:27,380
And then Ronma was Mapa, right? Was it Mapa? Was it Mapa? Was it thing and that was which studio that I'm getting confused about the one we reviewed last year? I was yeah, but right.

1012
01:53:27,380 --> 01:53:35,380
Well, then in that case, Mapa has their hands even more for them which studio had any given point. Yes, usually they do.

1013
01:53:35,380 --> 01:53:49,380
So I mean, they got to get through even if we haven't talked about it yet, they got to get through to two Kaisen the Culling game part two, which is still TBD and whatever else is on their plate.

1014
01:53:49,380 --> 01:53:57,380
I don't know what else is on their plate at the moment, but there's that and there's any number of other things is they do a lot.

1015
01:53:57,380 --> 01:54:09,380
So that's probably coming back at some point, turning after the apocalypse. I don't know if that's coming back or if it will because there's been zero news on that.

1016
01:54:09,380 --> 01:54:17,380
And spy family for sure will see you. I guess what does your heart say? What did they bring you the most joy this season?

1017
01:54:17,380 --> 01:54:37,380
Maybe I guess I'd be willing to give it to touring after the apocalypse just because I thought it was interesting and concept and they did some neat stuff with like the traveling and some of the encounters that Yoko and I really got into the mystery behind maybe she's so taste alive. Maybe she's dead.

1018
01:54:37,380 --> 01:54:41,380
We don't know do you.

1019
01:54:41,380 --> 01:54:51,380
Yes, sounded like interesting setup, but it also sounded like you were a bit unhappy with not getting any answers so far and still waiting for the other shoe to drop.

1020
01:54:51,380 --> 01:55:03,380
And maybe that'll happen, but in if it doesn't, I feel like it was at least enjoyable for what it was because I could drop it on spy family really easy because that was such a good season.

1021
01:55:03,380 --> 01:55:17,380
But yeah, again, safe choice and very done that before where I've given the same show the award more than once. I love Golden Comwee.

1022
01:55:17,380 --> 01:55:29,380
I love it to death, but even though it still hasn't ended even though the season just ended, I still want to see how it concludes before I'm like, I want to say yes.

1023
01:55:29,380 --> 01:55:42,380
This is, you know, it has the potential to be one of the goats. So I'm willing to say for now in spite of my misgivings, they're really enjoyable touring after the apocalypse a lot. And if it comes back, hey, that's cool.

1024
01:55:42,380 --> 01:55:55,380
If it doesn't, then you know, we got a neat little show with some mysteries to it that I guess if you don't go and read the manga, you can fill in the place with your imagination.

1025
01:55:55,380 --> 01:56:03,380
All right, touring after the apocalypse it is for me.

1026
01:56:03,380 --> 01:56:14,380
I have a lot of safe choices, spy family. I mean, definitely not one, but season three. We just elaborated on that. But spy family.

1027
01:56:14,380 --> 01:56:26,380
I delivered a lot of the stuff I was asking for this season. And I would have been totally justified to put it once again on throne.

1028
01:56:26,380 --> 01:56:35,380
Gacha Kutja in my hero academia would have been the safe bits in regards to show an action, which is my, you know, wheelhouse.

1029
01:56:35,380 --> 01:56:46,380
I'm a promising newcomer, won the finale to a series I've at least liked if not loved for most of its runtime. So yeah, definitely all valid contenders.

1030
01:56:46,380 --> 01:57:03,380
But since I also love to go with the weird shit wild card, I'm going to give it to Sanda because this is just, you know, this is one of those shows that is so unlike most of the stuff that you see from anime these days.

1031
01:57:03,380 --> 01:57:17,380
In regards to themes in regards to design in regards to animation topics attack us what what have you and I should have known that it would be that considering the author.

1032
01:57:17,380 --> 01:57:24,380
And what B stars is and everything and we still going to talk about the final season of B stars.

1033
01:57:24,380 --> 01:57:29,380
And so right, I need to watch that still.

1034
01:57:29,380 --> 01:57:45,380
There you go. And so I'm like, Hey, this is weird shit. And I love it for that. And I love that it's something different. And it makes me feel something different and think about different things.

1035
01:57:45,380 --> 01:57:56,380
And I'm really interested to see where it goes. I really can't tell because like I said, the set up of the show, like or part of the set of this to show is kind of fulfilled at the end of the season.

1036
01:57:56,380 --> 01:58:09,380
So I wonder where apps I have no idea what will go for me. I have some guesses I guess but that doesn't necessarily have to happen. So super excited. And I'm really happy the manga is over.

1037
01:58:09,380 --> 01:58:17,380
So I'm pretty sure Sincer is going to give us a full adoption of this. Hopefully they're also got they are also doing the new ghost in the shell anime.

1038
01:58:17,380 --> 01:58:31,380
So they also have the head and I'm looking forward to that a whole damn lot first first real adaption of the manga and then handle that handled by them. That's crazy. So yeah, definitely.

1039
01:58:31,380 --> 01:58:36,380
I can definitely one of the most anticipated shows on the coming seasons.

1040
01:58:36,380 --> 01:58:52,380
But yeah, for this time, I'm going to give the best of the season for just now because it's just such a wacky wild concept. And what they do with that is interesting and it's sad and it's funny and it's crazy.

1041
01:58:52,380 --> 01:59:05,380
And I really liked it. And it's short like the first season here is 12 offices in and out and you will have a good time if you're willing to get let anime get weird.

1042
01:59:05,380 --> 01:59:20,380
And it gets very it does that very much. But I had a really good time with it. So yes, I'm giving my best of the season was to Sanda and that is it for this season of anime brain freeze.

1043
01:59:20,380 --> 01:59:32,380
But some of the premieres for next season have already started airing I guess or at least one of them that we're interested in. And yeah, the next one are going to.

1044
01:59:32,380 --> 01:59:42,380
Next ones are going to follow so we will come back to you eventually with our impressions soon.

1045
01:59:42,380 --> 01:59:43,380
Soon is.

1046
01:59:43,380 --> 01:59:49,380

1047
01:59:49,380 --> 01:59:52,380
