00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:32,320
Hello and welcome to an all new episode of Anime Brain Freeze! We are your headless hosts!

3
00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:33,440
I am John!

4
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:37,520
And I'm CC and when there's just too much cool anime to watch, we've got you covered.

5
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:43,040
Today we will once again return to the genre of fantasy and discuss the magical adventures of

6
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:48,400
the little witch to be, Coco, in our review of the first season of Witch Hat Attelier.

7
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:52,320
And since it's our season finale, we of course will also give you our picks for best

8
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:57,280
and may of the season. So grab your pointed or brimmed cap of choice, be sure to pack your pen and

9
00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:00,560
then magical ink and definitely don't pause the part, you'll be right back!

10
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:14,320
It wasn't a whole lot this season, but I think we picked a couple really good and

11
00:01:14,320 --> 00:01:20,560
finishing out on witches and magic and drawings and

12
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:28,640
in the ancient, the ancient magic. You know what? You know what? Art is magic.

13
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:36,320
That is true, that's why I can never replace it. Hey, hey, pay your artists, folks.

14
00:01:36,320 --> 00:01:44,400
Yeah, exactly, pay your artists. So, yeah, pay Coco. I mean, she's probably paid, I guess she's paid

15
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:51,440
in tutoring, yeah? I mean, you know, at this point she's kind of an apprentice, though. We'll get to

16
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:58,960
that, but yes, but I, yeah, I don't think she get, do witches get paid or are they just like doing it

17
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:05,920
for the good and helping people? I don't wonder. Really? As far as I remember, I don't think we really

18
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:12,000
see much exchange of currency at all in the show. Yeah. I mean, we have the ladies who buy clothing,

19
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:16,160
but they were not witches and they were not, didn't contract, you know, so,

20
00:02:17,920 --> 00:02:22,560
I wonder, I wonder how the money thing works in which society, but we're going to get ahead of ourselves.

21
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:32,080
Yes. In a world where witches wield breathtaking magic, Coco coming from a humble background,

22
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:38,240
often wishes you were born one herself. After all, the secret behind casting magic is strictly

23
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:44,000
guarded from non-witches, but when Coco managed to catch a glimpse of the witch keyfree casting

24
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:50,000
a spell, her revelation on the truth behind magic drastically alters the course of her life.

25
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:58,000
However, Coco's curiosity pays a steep price when a disastrous spell cast an ignorance brings

26
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:04,960
a tragic fate upon her beloved mother. Keyfree takes the shaken girl and recognizing both her resolve

27
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:12,240
to save her mother and her link to a group of forbidden magic heretics. Secrets are a heavy burden

28
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:17,840
and between navigating a society that views her as an unenfited guest and mastering yard of magic.

29
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:24,400
Coco must give her all to prove her worth as a witch. Thank you as always to

30
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:29,760
everybody's friends, M.A.L. rewrite for that very succinct summary.

31
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:39,520
So this is a manga adeption. It sure is. The manga is still running as far as I know.

32
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:44,160
I don't know if anybody looms the task. Yeah, I was looking at what I didn't look

33
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:51,200
of the exact date, but the last chapters of it released, I believe in April,

34
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:57,680
or like the last volume of the last collected, what was they called, a Toncobone?

35
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:04,560
And there's more chapters on the way apparently, so. Yeah. Do you know how many chapters have

36
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:09,040
been covered by the first season of this? That's tough because the chapters don't appear to have

37
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:16,400
names like in literally every other manga, but going off of some race it seems like about

38
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:27,680
20-ish chapters. Okay. And we're coming up on like chapters 95 through 99 apparently, so

39
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:35,600
there's there is plenty of material. Yes, yes. I can't wait to get to it. But yeah, this

40
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:44,080
was handled by back films, and I mentioned them before I wore a must-have. It's been a while

41
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:55,120
because they also were responsible for zone 100. What was the bucket list after the apocalypse?

42
00:04:55,120 --> 00:05:04,800
I don't bucket list of the dead, I guess. Of the dead? Yes, exactly. Fun show. I doubt we'll see

43
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:10,640
another season of that because it's been a while, but no one knows. Never say never in anime land. We have

44
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:16,800
ridiculous long, ridiculously long breaks between certain seasons of certain shows. And I really

45
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:24,000
liked that one, so would be, would be, would be nice to get that. But one thing that already stood out

46
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:31,200
on that production were some incredible production values, especially in certain episodes. And

47
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:37,760
that holds true for which had atelier. It is a supremely beautiful show. Yeah, I think they also

48
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:44,160
did some work on the ancient make-us-bright and that was like the second season and I think, and that

49
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:50,240
looked really good too. Yeah, I also did the animation production for Summertime Rendering, which is

50
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:55,840
still on my back lock watch list. I haven't got it yet, but it sounded really interesting, so I hope

51
00:05:55,840 --> 00:06:02,000
I'll get to it. Same director by the way, who directed that is also responsible for this.

52
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:09,840
So, yeah, really cool stuff. I mean, the other not as

53
00:06:09,840 --> 00:06:19,840
laudable entry in his biography is the Ace of Turdy anime, I guess.

54
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:28,640
Well, sometimes, sometimes it just happens. Yeah, but there's some other popular ones, there's like

55
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:38,400
new chief director on comic and comic and director on Akane Banashi, which a lot of people were

56
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:47,120
buzzing about in the previous season. So, there is a lot of stuff. And you know, he had a lot of help

57
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:53,840
in the adapted script apartment because our man Hiroshi Seiko, of course, did this. Yeah, the king

58
00:06:53,840 --> 00:07:02,800
of adapted screenplays. It's kind of like, okay, well, yeah, this is that he has been working on

59
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:07,920
pretty much all the blockbuster, big anime that you can think of when it came to adapting, among

60
00:07:09,280 --> 00:07:19,600
the animated version like Attack on Titan and Vydlensaga and Zom-100, like it just mentioned MobsiCo and so on.

61
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:30,480
So, yeah, so much stuff. The interesting, some good work. Yeah, I think, if we remember correctly,

62
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:35,760
he's more adept at adapting stuff to the screen and actually doing original script work. I think

63
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:42,400
we had one show that was a bit of a, of his, that was a bit weird, but or it or I did. I don't know if it was

64
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:54,320
I think it was decadent. Yeah, that show is. Yeah, so, yeah, there are some misses maybe in there,

65
00:07:54,320 --> 00:08:01,360
but mostly hits. So, yeah, still a pretty good track record, track record. And I mean, adaptation is

66
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:10,000
as much of a skill as just making your own creations. Oh, for sure. Do you have to make sure to, you know,

67
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:16,960
cut some things, maybe extend some things and so on in the scripts to make sure that what works on

68
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:24,560
still page. It also works on the screen because some things definitely don't hunt, hunter, hunter.

69
00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:34,560
So, oops, I will never let that go. And the people who are a fan of the narrator talking over most of

70
00:08:34,560 --> 00:08:43,360
the battles in the camera and are in same. Yes, I'm talking to you directly. Not you, John, the people

71
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:51,200
out there who you have watched under hunter, but it's been on the list. Like I watched a few episodes

72
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:58,640
with some co-workers at my previous job and I had opinions about what a goody two shoes gone is, but,

73
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:05,840
you know, yeah, maybe that's not that changed. Just done. So, or at least let's say, I mean, it's been a while

74
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:16,320
so I can talk about this. A garden has the problem that he is, he is very driven. And even if it's a two,

75
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:24,240
being a goody two shoes comes to his own detriment because he does not take his own well being into account

76
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:30,960
and that becomes very interesting and problematic the further the show progresses and that's

77
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:38,000
the crux of his character. So, he's not the one excited. Yeah, he paints a little bit differently then.

78
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:45,360
Yes, exactly. The kid has some baggage and it's not evident from the beginning because it's a

79
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:50,400
different kind of baggage that you usually get from your show in protagonist. Not our interest is a very

80
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:55,680
unusual show in action show and several regards. And this is one of them. Anyway, that's not the show

81
00:09:55,680 --> 00:10:01,760
we're talking about. Not trying to get into tangents again. Sorry about that, but that's the show you

82
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:08,720
listening to folks. The one of the tangents shows. But anyway, yes, which had an idea. So, this had all the,

83
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:24,480
let's say, pre-requisites to become a hit. I don't know if it was as popular as everyone expect to be,

84
00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:30,320
but I certainly liked it. I don't know. How about you, John? Yeah, I mean, me too. Like, going through,

85
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:36,400
you know, you go through the stuff that's see what's airing and it's like, oh, no, this seems kind of

86
00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:43,360
unique and song on show, Pro ZD out and says, yeah, this is one of my favorite manga of all time. And I'm

87
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:50,000
like, you know what? I trust you. I'll check this out and check it out. It was, I think it was a

88
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:56,240
pretty good choice to check it out. Absolutely. Yeah. So like I said, I think the one that stands out,

89
00:10:56,240 --> 00:11:01,440
the one thing that stands out immediately are the production values because you have like,

90
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:09,600
first of all, it starts off with this like picture book setup, like there's several episodes where the

91
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:14,560
episode starts and closes by a book opening up and closing like a 3D picture book where like the

92
00:11:14,560 --> 00:11:20,720
pieces like are folding out and you see some of the characters and then turns into actual animation

93
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:26,640
and the show and so on. So that was a neat little thing. And also a picture book has a very important

94
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:35,280
part in the story, at least the setup of the story. So that was neat. And aside from that, you have like,

95
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:41,520
you know, just great art design, large landscapes, great color work, the spells and this should

96
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:47,600
look fantastic and the we don't get that much action there is are some action heavy episodes,

97
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:55,760
like let's say one or two or three. But when the action hits, it hits and it looks fantastic.

98
00:11:55,760 --> 00:12:03,120
Yeah, the action set pieces in the show goes so hard like it's definitely not the crux of the story,

99
00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:10,320
but they just think of full throttle on them. I mean, the in the first episode, so the setup is like,

100
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:16,480
John already alluded in the intro is this little girl, Coco works at a clothing store with her mom.

101
00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:22,880
I mean, they own it and they create all the dressers themselves as far as I know and make adjustments

102
00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:29,360
and stuff. And Coco has been doing that from earliest childhood, been able to draw patterns for

103
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:37,440
cutting clothes and so on and creating dresses. And yeah, one day she happens to run into, I mean,

104
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:44,480
even earlier to that as a small child, as we pretty learn pretty early on, she ran into some weird

105
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:50,160
mask figure, ostensibly a witch and she got this picture book from her and warned apparently,

106
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:57,120
thinking she can do magic with it turns out or at that time turned out she couldn't. But then one day

107
00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:06,320
she runs into an actual, you know, other witch, a guy named Kiffrey, who helps some of their customers

108
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:13,760
with her, their broken down carriage. And she's buys in on him fixing it with magic and so on and

109
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:23,840
then she learns the secret, the big, the big untold secret of this world because in the law of the world

110
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:31,120
it is said that witches are born witches and nobody can just become a witch. It's not possible and

111
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:39,040
because magic is super complicated, whatever turns out that's not true. Because you just have to be,

112
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:46,320
have you just need magical ink and you need to know the patterns and then anyone can do magic.

113
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:51,840
That's how it was in the olden times and because that led to a lot of upheaval and chaos because if

114
00:13:51,840 --> 00:14:01,280
men are able to do anything, they will do anything. Some people from the witch society or the

115
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:06,880
magic user spec in the day decided that that can't stay that way because it will lead to war chaos,

116
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:12,640
everything, the destruction of the world. So they just to take away the memories of people,

117
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:21,280
of which of magic users, taking away the memories of magic or how to use it and only a couple select

118
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:28,640
few from their society were allowed to keep it. And this secret society, so to speak, has been kept

119
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:34,320
in secret throughout the ages. So they decide who is allowed to do magic and who isn't.

120
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:44,320
Coco definitely wasn't supposed to do magic. But yeah, then she runs into Kiffry, sees that he's

121
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:53,200
able to do it like that. She knows how to draw, well, a bit anyway. And then, yeah, she starts doing

122
00:14:53,200 --> 00:15:01,600
magic and that has harrowing effects on what happens. She draws this pattern that she saw in a picture book

123
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:12,240
and it basically turns her home and her mother inside of it into like a giant crystal or stone and

124
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:21,520
there's apparently like Kiffry comes back to rescue Coco and he's like, what is this spell? I

125
00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:30,320
don't know what this is. And that becomes the crux of the story basically that Kiffry is first

126
00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:37,760
instinct is, well, now that you know how to use magic, I guess your memory has to go in Coco says to her,

127
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:45,920
or says to him, no, I want to learn how to reverse the spell so I can make it right so I can bring my

128
00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:53,200
mother back so I can undo this so that there's knowledge of how to undo this spell. And Kiffry,

129
00:15:53,200 --> 00:16:03,680
this is very reluctant being like, okay, I mean, I guess if the Coco says that she has basically

130
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:11,200
more or less committed that picture book to memory. So she remembers a lot of the symbols that are

131
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:18,080
in it. So that doesn't that part of it doesn't really come into play in this, but it will obviously,

132
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:24,080
like that's obviously, you know, just down the road it will become important that she knows how to do

133
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:30,960
this magic that these things that she didn't know were magic that obviously we know now is magic.

134
00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:39,920
Yeah, I mean, for now, you know, Kiffry intends to take her memories away, but like you said,

135
00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:46,160
he can because then he will lose track of the as we later learned the brimt caps, that's what's

136
00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:53,200
this splinter group is called who aren't using forbidden magic. Is it they change names throughout

137
00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:59,040
its first or translation throughout first is brimt hats then is brimt caps and pointed hats and

138
00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:06,160
pointed caps. So I don't know what's more accurate. I think the official translation is brimmed caps.

139
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:19,280
Yeah, the brimmed caps and like the good aligned quote unquote, which is like keyframe or lugo and

140
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:25,760
others that we meet later on, I guess, are pointed caps. I think that's the distinction. Yeah, yeah,

141
00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:35,440
exactly. I mean, as are their actual caps, right? Yeah, they're pointy ends. Kiffry tries to find

142
00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:44,640
these brimt caps and we don't know why yet. Like there is a that they haven't revealed any of that.

143
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:50,720
It's just like you know that he's really, really interested to get them and he does some things in

144
00:17:50,720 --> 00:18:00,960
this first season that are also questionable. And you're wondering if he really is as good of a guy

145
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:08,880
as he is and what his ultimate motives are because he seems to be really interested in learning or

146
00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:18,160
knowing about forbidden magic. Yeah, I mean, it's obvious he's got his apprentice's best interest in

147
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:28,400
mind for the most part, but there's there's there's something there's something. So this might also

148
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:34,640
be related to, you know, he wearing a black, his glasses, being blacked out on one side and we

149
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:43,120
never see his right eye. It's always covered by hair. You're right. Right? So like that. So maybe he is

150
00:18:43,120 --> 00:18:49,040
cursed and can only be healed with forbidden magic or something like that, or someone he knows because

151
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:55,920
in one of the later episodes, we learned that he is especially interested in healing magic and

152
00:18:55,920 --> 00:19:02,160
some kind of healing magic that he comes across when one of the brimth caps, which is,

153
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:11,920
does something to co-coast ink bottle or whatever. So he's very exhilarated finding out that

154
00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:19,280
that he ran across a special spell they used for doing that. Yeah, and we sort of learn a little

155
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:29,680
bit later on, over the course of the story that it's forbidden to cast spells directly onto a person.

156
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:37,840
Yes. So like that is a big no no. Yes, that's the most important thing about forbidden magic, right?

157
00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:43,840
Anything that is cast directly onto a person and that includes healing magic, right? Like you can create

158
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:54,240
tools with magic to heal a person. You can create tools to change your body or hide your true body

159
00:19:54,240 --> 00:20:00,480
type and stuff like that, but you can't directly, for example, transform your body into a different shape.

160
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:08,000
You cannot transport your body to a different place without actually creating a door with magic or

161
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:15,360
something like that. You're not allowed to apparently directly heal a body with magic because there is one

162
00:20:15,360 --> 00:20:26,720
episode where also somewhat antagonistic faction is introduced in the Knights of Morales, who is like,

163
00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:33,760
well, they are introduced as like this moral instance that keeps basically the rule of law in

164
00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:40,800
the which world like basically making sure that the secrets stays a secret. But immediately they have

165
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:47,120
like a stop all Spanish inquisition vibes because they're very like we don't give a shit about

166
00:20:47,120 --> 00:20:54,480
what anything has to sell. Say about anything what we say is the law and shit like that. And I can't wait

167
00:20:54,480 --> 00:21:00,000
for the main character or the leader of them as he is or what he is called.

168
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:07,840
He's probably gonna clash with a with a with a brimmed cap at some point and he's

169
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:16,880
hopefully gonna get his shit rocked because he's an asshole. Yeah he even after yeah he

170
00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:25,360
was a cocoa like accidentally cast a spell the wrong way and he's like you did this so you must

171
00:21:25,360 --> 00:21:32,320
be one of the brimmed caps. It's like brother. I mean, he is he is not wrong in a sense that

172
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:38,000
it was brimmed a cap magic right? This was forbidden magic but cocoa did not know she was casting it

173
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:46,880
because her ink bottle was you know changed was was was made more powerful with forbidden magic and

174
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:53,200
ink. So in a way he was right but also he wouldn't even like entertain the discussion or whatever

175
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:58,880
he was just like notice forbidden magic you must have casted you are the culprit. It's like okay buddy

176
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:10,400
a cap so it's just it's just the feeling I got from the guy and we'll see we'll see where he comes

177
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:15,360
into play again. It was only really one episode in the season but he seems to be very intent on

178
00:22:15,360 --> 00:22:22,320
discovering what cocoa is about what kiffrey is doing in the background and so on. So that's

179
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:30,160
that's that's gonna cause problems down the road I'm pretty sure. So yeah but getting back to the

180
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:38,320
beginning a bit. Coco is in a stunning sequence saved from the spell she accidentally cast that

181
00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:44,320
encases her house and her mother and so on turns into a crystal or stone. I'm not even sure what

182
00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:50,000
it is but I think it's crystal. It has the appearance of a crystal but at some points they call it

183
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:59,040
rock and I think that just might be a language diff because there's Japanese is the king of having

184
00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:04,320
words meaning several different things and being written a hundred different ways. It looks like

185
00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:12,560
the glowing rock from a legend of Zelda Breath of the wild so I guess that works but yeah so she's

186
00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:18,080
saved from that by kiffrey and one of the several stunning flying sequences and this like the

187
00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:23,680
camera also rolling around and everything and everything is so well animated and then he intends to

188
00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:29,760
take her memories away but he can't because the picture book that was supposed to be a lead to the

189
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:38,240
brim caps is now gone it's also encased in in the stone and cocoa has as I guess photographic memory

190
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:43,920
well not really but I think she has only memorized them because she looked at the book throughout her

191
00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:50,160
entire life up to now over and over again and redrew the shapes and stuff like that with maybe

192
00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:58,800
with her mind and with normal with a normal pen I don't know so yeah so he needs to keep her around

193
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:08,960
so so him so so having her keep her memory is not altruistic entirely it's it's it's it's a pact

194
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:15,120
kind of between him and cocoa wants to remember so one day she can save her mom with magic

195
00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:23,360
and he needs to keep her memory around so eventually she will lead him to the to the brim caps

196
00:24:23,360 --> 00:24:32,960
and like you said she none of this has really happened yet he hasn't asked her to try to come up with

197
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:41,120
to draw the patterns from the book I wonder what his ultimate plan actually is to

198
00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:48,320
I think down this show it becomes more like ah okay I think the brim caps are interested in cocoa

199
00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:54,480
so if I keep her around they will eventually show up and I will be able to get a lead on them

200
00:24:54,480 --> 00:25:03,280
I think that's what he realizes so he kind of uses her as bait again his his methods are kind of

201
00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:10,480
questionable like yeah yeah you said he has the interest the best interest of his apprentices in mind and

202
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:16,960
you know on the surface that is true he definitely makes sure that they are protected that they

203
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:22,400
he looks out you know that they're not hurt that they're not put into danger or anything or not

204
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:29,200
unnecessary danger if it's not a test or something like that but you know in the background it's always

205
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:39,520
like huh my main goal is to you know get a handle or get get get my hands on the magic of the brim

206
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:46,560
tats and maybe on some of their members for whatever reason so I wonder if there is a situation down

207
00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:54,720
the road where he has to decide between the well-being of his apprentices and actually getting a clue

208
00:25:54,720 --> 00:26:00,960
and getting the you know his hands on the magic of the brim caps what he will do so that's really

209
00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:06,240
interesting yeah I wonder about that because I feel like just I feel like you know already see we're like

210
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:15,520
one-fifth of the way into the story that's out there but I could see parts of this going a couple

211
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:20,640
or three different ways down the road and I'm just curious because I think they could all be

212
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:29,120
interesting plot threads so yes exactly and I feel like the the beginning of the show and some

213
00:26:29,120 --> 00:26:35,680
some things that happen down the road especially in the final episode are dark enough that I

214
00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:41,520
wouldn't be surprised if we have some a couple of dark turns down the road like the atmosphere is

215
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:48,560
in a lot of cases like lighthearted bubbly especially because of our I guess ostensible

216
00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:56,560
four main girl characters or the four main apprentices of kiffry but there are some dark vibes

217
00:26:56,560 --> 00:27:02,960
and the beginning especially with her mom being like basically cocoa being responsible for her

218
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:11,200
harm coming to her mother and you know her missing messing with forces she doesn't understand and

219
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:20,560
that having some bad effects that she did not anticipate that has a very full metal alchemist vibe

220
00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:26,240
where at an l we're also messing with alchemy and they did not fully understand it and it cost

221
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:33,040
them dearly and that's kind of the same vibe I got from the opening episode of this even though it

222
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:39,360
does not immediately go there it also starts kind of you know lighthearted and cute and nice

223
00:27:39,360 --> 00:27:44,000
and everything and then there's like this dark turn at the very end of the first episode and like I

224
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:50,160
said we have some other episodes in this where there are some dark moments shining through

225
00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:58,400
the tapestry so it's it's kind of cool like it's it's got the nice the right mix I think it's not just

226
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:02,720
just this odd here's this nice cute fantasy story about a girl who wants to become a witch no

227
00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:11,200
no no that girl also has baggage and there is some some everyone in this in this show kind of has

228
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:19,280
some baggage actually not her oh yeah also you know the other little apprentices um I mean we haven't

229
00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:27,200
gone full into all of them yet really only like tackles a surface but for example um we have

230
00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:33,440
probably the least um the one with the release character development right now is Titia

231
00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:41,520
Titia Titia who who is like this little very bubbly girl says thank you if you think her

232
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:48,880
weird manner isn't there but I mean you do that that she's well behaved who is like very outgoing

233
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:53,200
and extroverted and everything and she immediately said you know basically includes

234
00:28:53,200 --> 00:29:04,080
make makes sure that Coco is welcome as a friend on her side anyway when she joins the atelier of

235
00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:10,640
Kifrey and even though you know immediately know oh Coco is kind of an outsider because at this point

236
00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:17,520
the message has spread to to a lot of the people or rumors anyway of an outsider who cast for

237
00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:24,560
bitten magic in whatever and it's now under Kifrey's tutelage maybe not too all of them but some

238
00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:29,840
people have apparently picked up on that and she knows and she knows that Coco is probably that person

239
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:37,760
so there is not that much to Titia yet she's mostly like this you know the lighthearted bubbly girl

240
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:44,880
there is some moment where they have to fight a giant dragon when one of the brimt caps puts them

241
00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:53,600
in the lure them into a trap where you see that she is not her character is not as stat fast like she

242
00:29:53,600 --> 00:30:01,440
gets easily scared understandable you know dragon but the other girls are more like I don't know they're

243
00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:10,560
more sturdy when it comes to I guess dealing with this kind of experience she is not she wants everyone

244
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:16,640
to be happy and everything and she wants to create this spell this this fluffy pillow spell whatever

245
00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:24,320
that makes makes everyone happy and funny thing that kind of actually works when they have to use it

246
00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:29,280
even though they have to adapt it a bit but it's it's it's a ludicrous plan but it's works at the

247
00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:38,080
distraction and yeah that's as a distraction that that's cool so yeah she's not the least manifested

248
00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:45,520
character yet so I'll be interested to find out what her origin story is then the next one is probably

249
00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:56,800
my favorite Ryshe I think she is the best character in the show she's so laid back and just she just

250
00:30:56,800 --> 00:31:02,560
wants to vibe with magic that's all exactly but she also has kind of a bean edge to it but not mean in

251
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:08,720
the terms of stock up or everything right she's just like I'm doing it in my way my way just leave me

252
00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:15,760
alone and also she has a she has some pretty witty comments to some of the stuff other people say

253
00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:23,440
and everything she's very snarky in certain regards and you know I liked her the most in terms of

254
00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:28,320
what she was doing and how she was doing it and everything she's not as mean as a god she's not

255
00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:36,080
or agate I don't know she's pronounced her pronounced but she's also not as you know

256
00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:45,360
ha I want to have everyone and I want to do everything kiffy says and so on like like Coco or TETIAR

257
00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:54,160
so I don't know she was the right mix of fun but with an adjun everything and she she has an

258
00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:58,720
interesting thing going on that we also haven't learned a lot about yet it's kind of related to her

259
00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:06,800
brother and who disappeared apparently we learned that much about it or maybe you just left to study

260
00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:13,840
magic and then never returned for whatever reason but because he cherished her magic and the magic

261
00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:21,280
she came up with that's the only magic she wants to do so when you know people like kiffry or

262
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:28,160
some other which is who she trained under I think ask her to do you know the normal stuff

263
00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:36,400
go the proper approach do the math right like do do it like in textbook do it by the book that's not her

264
00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:41,920
she is just no I'm just gonna use the stuff I know I don't care about actually learning stuff I'm

265
00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:48,560
not interested in and instead of doing it like everyone expects me to do it I'm just gonna adapt

266
00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:55,200
the stuff I know to the situation and make it work that way and that is really cool in a way like

267
00:32:55,200 --> 00:33:03,200
it makes her having to be pretty creative when it comes to experimenting with her own spells

268
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:10,240
the downside of that is it makes her less flexible because she doesn't want to acquire new tools

269
00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:17,280
you know instead of just using the tools she's familiar with but you know her approach helps

270
00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:25,040
agut and especially another character in the test at the very end of the of the disforced season

271
00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:32,320
so so that's cool and like I said I just like like a character so I'm really interested to see

272
00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:38,800
what what she is about and how she's gonna get developed in the coming seasons and then we have

273
00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:45,040
the little bitch princess agut I mean you're not wrong but

274
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:51,040
yes I mean it's one of those characters where it's like I'm I'm pretty sure I know where she's

275
00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:58,320
coming from right and we know she has a good part at the court everything but she's just very

276
00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:05,520
she's just very cold yeah she's just very I need to prove myself I need to show that I'm the best

277
00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:13,200
and I don't want to be a deal with people who hinder me there like who get in my way of becoming

278
00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:20,640
the best and that's that can always be a very annoying character a very driven character it's

279
00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:28,480
probably related to her mom because she apparently was a very powerful strong witch and agut wasn't

280
00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:35,760
able to do that as easily so she has been training day in day out and she really doesn't like cocoa

281
00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:41,840
coming into you know the the group becoming an apprentice because she thinks she

282
00:34:42,720 --> 00:34:48,560
hasn't learned magic from the beginning and she is not supposed to be able to do magic and she

283
00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:54,800
just locked into it and everything so so I can see where she is coming from but she feels a bit stuck

284
00:34:54,800 --> 00:35:06,720
up she feels a bit of you know she she feels a bit like elitist and that you know that will back

285
00:35:06,720 --> 00:35:16,480
fire and it has already backfired in the first season in certain regards so yeah she can she has her

286
00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:22,800
moments where she where you realize she's also a good person and she helps you know she she gave her

287
00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:32,000
her flying shoes to to cocoa when she pushed her into doing the tests wholly unprepared and she didn't

288
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:36,640
do necessarily do it out of the goodness of her heart I think she just did because she actually

289
00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:41,520
doesn't know how to use them anyway so who cares but she also didn't have to do that like she could

290
00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:47,520
have just said ah don't you're not getting my magic shoes right but something in how cocoa

291
00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:52,800
asked her mate I do it so there's something there right and there's something in their relationship

292
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:58,640
that will of course grow and there will have this rival relationship probably so that makes sense

293
00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:03,680
and she's not like I said a total asshole you know she's not from the Knights of Morales even and

294
00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:10,800
even they have like this when when they are you know made aware that there are people in the vicinity

295
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:14,880
that need help when they're just trying to pass judgment in that one episode where they appear

296
00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:18,720
they also look at each other like yeah we should probably do that we should probably help people

297
00:36:18,720 --> 00:36:25,120
because that's what magic is actually for us so that's what they do as far as they can do to

298
00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:34,880
extend as to their abilities so they're not like people who are just assholes and this just some very

299
00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:39,600
problematic characters and characters that are very hard to love

300
00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:50,400
in this show everybody's got their problems yes yes yes and I mean in the center of all of this is our

301
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:55,760
main characters cocoa and their relationship is interesting to everyone and she's like this very

302
00:36:55,760 --> 00:37:05,520
very nice girl a bit shy in certain moments especially once she you know experiences this trauma

303
00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:11,760
through magic she's also really she doesn't want to do magic she doesn't understand anymore right because

304
00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:19,280
she's afraid to hurt someone and you know destroy things and whatever and she's not really super

305
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:27,120
adept at learning magic right in a lot of these shows you have like this oh they were never meant to do

306
00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:32,720
magic but actually they are a superstar and everything comes to them pretty easily once they know

307
00:37:32,720 --> 00:37:40,560
how to do things and that's not really what cocoa is doing and what her characters she has trouble

308
00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:46,240
doing magic she gets the patterns wrong all the time like makes the lines too long so her spells

309
00:37:46,240 --> 00:37:52,000
have too much power or go into the wrong direction it's like this really funny scene where she she tries

310
00:37:52,000 --> 00:38:00,080
to perfect the the seal for the flying shoes that she wants to give back to agad and she makes one of

311
00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:06,080
the lines too long so I guess plays way too fast although that comes in handy I guess in that moment

312
00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:10,880
because she manages to get to kill free pretty quickly and one of the characters later says that she

313
00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:19,120
actually likes it that way now she likes her her flying shoes being super fast but so that's cool but

314
00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:25,680
you know she did this all this shit does not come easy to cocoa she struggles she has real problems

315
00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:31,200
she has to put the work in she has to learn and she has to find her own way she at one point

316
00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:41,840
realizes that being able to draw stuff with with a with a with a stone like that like a cutting stone

317
00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:47,440
or a drawing stone that she used when in a working in the clothing store with her mom that she's

318
00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:53,760
able to do the patterns more easily more correctly just with normal magical pens it's very difficult

319
00:38:53,760 --> 00:39:01,840
for her so that's interesting yeah I like that a lot because she has so many so many stories like

320
00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:07,200
as an anime and manga where it's like the main characters just immediately so good and it's like

321
00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:12,640
that's so tired I like this I like that we get to see her learning process and that she struggling

322
00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:19,120
with it and trying to understand everything I think is fantastic yes and it's and it's cool right and

323
00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:25,920
it leads to actual story development it's not like because that means hey okay she doesn't have

324
00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:32,720
the right pen yet so she should get a pen that is perfectly suited to her needs right and so they

325
00:39:32,720 --> 00:39:40,080
go into a town and they go to this to shop with this old guy called what was his name no noah

326
00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:49,920
or something like that yes no noah this old guy no noah and his grandson tartar and they create

327
00:39:50,480 --> 00:40:00,960
magical utensils and stuff like that and of course pens um and not like if I remember

328
00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:07,120
Harry Potter where he just gets his wand and oh fantastic now if my own wand and that's it no

329
00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:13,840
there's a whole character story developing from them just going to the shop and something

330
00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:18,480
added to the plot and everything and it's super cool and that's actually one of the one of

331
00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:27,920
the the story bits I like the most in this season like it was the the focus episode of

332
00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:35,760
or the episode focusing on the relationship between cocoa and tartar tartar suffers from

333
00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:40,880
silver wash syndrome which is kind of this color blindness he sees everything in the world in this

334
00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:48,720
silver color tone so he can differentiate between different inks and so on unless they're put

335
00:40:48,720 --> 00:40:53,920
on the right place in on the shelf and so on and that becomes a real problem when he tries to

336
00:40:53,920 --> 00:41:00,480
identify medicine to cure cocoa of a fever and everything and you know that has hindered him of

337
00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:06,480
becoming a witch because you know everyone's like oh okay he can't do this in this magic magic if he

338
00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:14,560
doesn't see colors so why even bother right which society as we learn in this is very no non-central

339
00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:19,680
it comes to excluding people with special needs like they don't give a shit they don't adapt to

340
00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:25,600
these kind of people they just exclude them from their society like I said very elite eastern certain

341
00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:35,440
regards so yeah tartar is a victim of that because he everyone decided very early on is this life in

342
00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:41,920
his life that he wouldn't be able to do proper magic and his encounter with cocoa teaches him

343
00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:50,320
otherwise because she is like hey if you if we use this spell that I still have in my notebook here

344
00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:59,440
you can return the powder the the medicine to medicine powder here in this bottle into its

345
00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:07,520
original form and you won't need to see the color to do determine what actually is in this medicine

346
00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:14,080
and this is like opens a whole new world to tartar because like oh no there is magic that can actually

347
00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:21,440
help me to understand magic I can't understand because of my color blindness so magic can give me

348
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:29,120
the tools to actually do magic to do all the magic that I want to do and that's so great like there

349
00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:35,280
was such a great moment where it's like no no no no this can do anything so of course it can also

350
00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:43,520
enable you to over to to bypass your shortcomings so I just I just love that and like the relationship

351
00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:49,440
between those two outsiders that have been told over and over again that they what they can't

352
00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:54,720
what they can and can't do because cocoa also her entire life has been has been told because of the

353
00:42:54,720 --> 00:43:04,240
big lie that this society perpetuates that not everyone can do magic basically you know both of

354
00:43:04,240 --> 00:43:09,040
them she and her and tartar were told that they can't do this and now they're overcoming the these

355
00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:16,480
boundaries it's just good stuff like it's just heartwarming and I really like the moments between them

356
00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:21,040
and them saying goodbye and tartar saying I will create the best pen ever for you and everything

357
00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:27,200
that that was nice that was really nice yeah that really like between them is really really strong

358
00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:34,160
and just good friends helping each other out you know yes exactly and I hope he'll he'll come

359
00:43:34,160 --> 00:43:40,480
back down the road not only for you know giving her her pen which I assume is the pen we see in the

360
00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:47,680
in the OP which is also gorgeous by the way I think there's like this white blue pen with a star

361
00:43:47,680 --> 00:43:52,640
or something like that maybe that's just for the OP and that's not actually her gonna be her her

362
00:43:52,640 --> 00:43:59,520
magical pen but it's it could be so we'll see so for now she hasn't gotten her own yet so

363
00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:06,480
I assume that's also when she will start to do some serious magic right when she gets the pen that

364
00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:11,040
is perfectly suited to her so we'll see when that happens I assume it's gonna happen in the second

365
00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:17,600
season or something like that but you know she she is making progress but for now she has to put

366
00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:22,720
the work in and more work than the others and certainly because I'm not in maybe more work but

367
00:44:22,720 --> 00:44:28,320
she is late to the party right she hasn't trained this her whole life she has only trained on this one

368
00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:33,440
book without knowing that she's training and she has not actually trained the drawing that much

369
00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:38,720
with these tools that she is now getting and also all the different effects this has if it's not

370
00:44:38,720 --> 00:44:44,400
perfectly you know created and how it can be combined and everything and there was also one of the

371
00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:52,720
most interesting things where they adapt Tatya spell to battle the dragon and actually being able to

372
00:44:53,440 --> 00:45:01,440
change different ideas about a magical spell and making it you know adjusted to the need of the

373
00:45:01,440 --> 00:45:06,720
situation and everything so I want to see more of that I actually want to want them to be creative

374
00:45:06,720 --> 00:45:14,640
with magic and they also do that client like in the last episode of the season with another

375
00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:22,880
character introduced uni where he changes his spell in a way so it accommodates his problem of

376
00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:28,320
not being able to do a draw in front of people because he's been like

377
00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:33,280
psychologically tortured by his teacher

378
00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:38,320
Jesus his teacher oh my god I feel so bad for that kid man

379
00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:45,040
well I you know John Hyal was saying before that they're not people who are entirely

380
00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:51,040
assholes all the way through I make an exception for that guy because he's just he's just a piece of

381
00:45:51,040 --> 00:46:01,040
shit and I love I love how just fucking how how effectively amazingly kiffrey shoots him down in one

382
00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:07,680
scene it's like were you saying something you little bitch a little bitch added by me of course but

383
00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:14,160
that it was all in the tone of kiffrey's voice it was amazing because he immediately realizes

384
00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:22,320
that that guy is just an absolute absolute asshole is like he's not having it so good it's so good

385
00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:33,760
love it um yeah so uh that that is cool and uni is cool uh how he once he is allowed to do magic his way

386
00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:41,440
is able to actually do it and actually overcome the hurdles of the test until shit goes really bad

387
00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:53,440
because freezer appears uh it is his voice it's right yeah uh but yeah uh it also approve that the

388
00:46:53,440 --> 00:47:00,880
show can become really creepy at times and some really dark shit can happen in this show so um literally

389
00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:06,880
so I'm wondering how that will pen out I don't want to spoil that uh but there there's some

390
00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:13,280
this sub-shit happening in the final episode of the show that I did not expect or the season I'm

391
00:47:13,280 --> 00:47:18,400
wonder if that will get resolved um because this season ends on the giant ass cliffhanger

392
00:47:18,400 --> 00:47:24,720
it ends just in the middle of a big confrontation and tests and no see you next time this is what

393
00:47:24,720 --> 00:47:28,960
gonna happen next season uh we know the second season has already been confirmed and it's being

394
00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:36,080
worked on we don't know when it's coming uh but uh yeah so right now we're in the middle of a giant

395
00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:43,360
huge cliffhanger moment it's really crazy like basically like everything is fucked

396
00:47:43,360 --> 00:47:50,240
and yeah now we have to wait at the next season just coming yeah I mean I

397
00:47:50,240 --> 00:47:58,960
I can't wait for it but also I hope they take their time when it so it looks as good as this season did

398
00:47:58,960 --> 00:48:06,880
so like hurry up and give it to me but also please please you know

399
00:48:07,600 --> 00:48:13,760
yes and I mean I have no reason to doubt back films at this point because both ZOM 100 I mean

400
00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:19,680
ZOM 100 had some production issues I think if I remember correctly I mean the entire opening of

401
00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:30,720
the show is a joke about uh you know being put into crunch or whatever uh so uh uh I know I hope

402
00:48:30,720 --> 00:48:38,160
that that was just you know that that was just something that the studio didn't do itself um

403
00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:46,320
let's see uh so far nothing has come out in that regard so uh we will see and that was already in

404
00:48:46,320 --> 00:48:54,320
the manga no ZOM 100 was an original anime I think so I don't know um but also maybe the studio

405
00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:59,040
is staunchly against that that that's why that's why they took on this project uh I don't know

406
00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:05,440
but so far they have to live at uh really good stuff animation wise production value wise like this

407
00:49:05,440 --> 00:49:12,240
again you if you haven't seen it you have no idea how fucking beautiful the show can be like

408
00:49:12,240 --> 00:49:18,720
it's ridiculous there are so many little details packed into this there's so many unnecessary quote

409
00:49:18,720 --> 00:49:27,920
unquote animation flexes in this like doing like uh a swerve of the camera with several moving

410
00:49:27,920 --> 00:49:34,080
objects at the same time is really tough that's one of the toughest things you can do in animation

411
00:49:34,080 --> 00:49:40,480
and this show does it constantly there's like this moment when Q3 arrives or not Q3 the the

412
00:49:40,480 --> 00:49:49,680
carriage arrives in the uh in in the first episode and Coco runs uh the cro uh around there the

413
00:49:49,680 --> 00:49:55,600
the top of the building of the clothing store and so that's just just several layers of animation

414
00:49:55,600 --> 00:50:00,720
happening in the background so you have this parallax scrolling you have the scrolling the the

415
00:50:00,720 --> 00:50:06,960
the turning of the building you have Coco running you have the carriage flying it's fucking crazy how

416
00:50:06,960 --> 00:50:13,120
much is happening in these couple of frames of animation and like whoa holy shitbox films what are you

417
00:50:13,120 --> 00:50:21,040
doing? They're on some good stuff man they do man they do so much good work with this yes and there's

418
00:50:21,040 --> 00:50:27,840
also like these very little little details um i haven't mentioned it yet but holy shit cocoa

419
00:50:27,840 --> 00:50:35,280
or be friends one of the best mascot characters an anime a brush body yeah he's so fucking cute oh my god

420
00:50:35,280 --> 00:50:46,560
he's so god damn cute and there's this amazing moment where um kiffrey is under a kind of spell or

421
00:50:46,560 --> 00:50:54,240
something like that he he caught a stray off from from a brimmed cap i think or from the uh yeah yeah he

422
00:50:54,240 --> 00:51:00,640
struck by lightning when he's investigating the the the uh adjusted ink bottle that one of the brim

423
00:51:00,640 --> 00:51:09,760
caps puts into Coco's uh uh uh the things or whatever in her bag and when he tries to investigate

424
00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:14,320
it activates a fail save and so on in the trap and he's struck by lightning and so on and to counter

425
00:51:14,320 --> 00:51:20,640
that he eats like this this this herb from his garden i think and brush bodies on his shoulder

426
00:51:20,640 --> 00:51:28,400
and brush bodies mimicking his mouth movements he's chewing together with kiffrey and then uh

427
00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:34,480
it like clapping its hand together when it works and it's so fucking cute and i didn't have to do that

428
00:51:34,480 --> 00:51:40,320
they just could have added just on his shoulder and it's just like this this really movie jibbly movie

429
00:51:40,320 --> 00:51:45,360
quality level little detail of just this little creditor doing cute things and i was just like

430
00:51:45,360 --> 00:51:50,560
my heart oh this is so god damn cute i can't i can't stand it

431
00:51:50,560 --> 00:52:00,000
it's really good so uh i i liked i liked it a lot i liked how much work they put into making it like

432
00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:06,480
the cutest thing you have ever seen him though it's just like this long tail of of hair with eyes

433
00:52:06,480 --> 00:52:15,280
basically yeah and but yeah it's really cool they're also like these um creatures uh what do they call

434
00:52:15,280 --> 00:52:22,080
the merphon's or something like that which are like this this mixture of a griffin uh a griffon

435
00:52:22,080 --> 00:52:28,560
and uh and a penguin that they have right yeah yeah yeah as as chord in the in the in the final test

436
00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:35,520
of of the season that uh risha and agat and uni are going through with their instructor

437
00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:43,200
and these merphons there are also really cute they're really really really adorable i wouldn't

438
00:52:43,200 --> 00:52:50,000
mind the plush of that so lots of lots of cute little critters in the show and just a lot of god damn

439
00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:56,960
details that are that i again didn't have to put in there but they were intent on flexing a lot

440
00:52:56,960 --> 00:53:03,200
at least in this first season and like you said john i hope there is more of this in the second

441
00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:07,920
season uh one other another another character we forgot to mention or you mentioned him briefly is

442
00:53:07,920 --> 00:53:18,480
or uu or or or uu or just oli who is kind of like this this watchdog uh in that is working at kiffry's

443
00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:24,400
actually i don't i haven't quite understood yet what his actual role is and what you know what his

444
00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:30,800
his title is because it seems to me more of a a standard thing like like a

445
00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:38,080
tech caretaker who is installed in which is atelier to make sure everything is going according to

446
00:53:38,080 --> 00:53:44,320
the rules and laws of of the witchless side or something like that yeah it seems like there's a

447
00:53:44,320 --> 00:53:52,240
a watchful eye as their call yeah that's what he's called himself yeah uh like assigned to different

448
00:53:52,240 --> 00:54:03,680
witches so and and i wonder if in the case of kiffry if it's because he has his apprentices that's why he's

449
00:54:03,680 --> 00:54:11,760
there or there's or if there's other reasons yeah we also haven't learned much about him yet he's a bit more

450
00:54:11,760 --> 00:54:21,040
graph uh then kiffry uh they but they seem to be friends right they seem to have like this

451
00:54:21,040 --> 00:54:29,360
yeah yeah we we we we can absolutely stand each other and we have been buddies but we see things certain

452
00:54:29,360 --> 00:54:35,280
things very differently okay i'm found a better definition here a watchful eye is a pointed head

453
00:54:35,280 --> 00:54:40,560
which with the duty of overseeing atelier is too far away from the great hall to be monitored

454
00:54:40,560 --> 00:54:50,160
effectively by the night's more atlas so there we go so an absolute boon technically to uh kiffry

455
00:54:50,160 --> 00:54:57,200
that he is not in the direct vicinity of the nights of more alas really uh and has to deal not

456
00:54:57,200 --> 00:55:03,040
in with them all the time but mostly with all he would comes to having an overseer because all he

457
00:55:03,040 --> 00:55:10,720
while strict in certain regards and he wants to to initially he wants also to take um koko's memories

458
00:55:10,720 --> 00:55:18,560
away right if i remember correctly uh but he is he is able to see reason he is willing to

459
00:55:19,600 --> 00:55:26,480
discuss and willing to debate and willing to uh change his opinion on things which the nights of more

460
00:55:26,480 --> 00:55:36,480
alas are not necessarily want to do yeah so he's not a zealous uh zealot he's just you know a person that

461
00:55:36,480 --> 00:55:40,960
you know is a bit more careful and not as free thinking as kiffry seems to be

462
00:55:40,960 --> 00:55:48,800
i saw that clash but not that seriously and they mostly work together and they have like this

463
00:55:48,800 --> 00:55:56,640
interesting dynamic and banter and everything and it's really nice to see all he slowly warming up to

464
00:55:56,640 --> 00:56:04,080
koko for example and uh you know taking her into his heart it's not evident yet because like i said

465
00:56:04,080 --> 00:56:10,160
he's very gruff and he does not like to be bothered and everything but you you need to you realize

466
00:56:10,160 --> 00:56:17,760
pretty quickly that he's taking a shine to uh to her and he's like okay i'll uh she she's she's a good

467
00:56:17,760 --> 00:56:24,400
kid um i like her so we'll see uh oh he i mean he also helps kiffry covering up that

468
00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:31,760
koko was responsible actually unknowingly for changing every the the the whole thing right

469
00:56:31,760 --> 00:56:38,000
the the in the one using forbidden magic in that one episode where the nights of more alas almost

470
00:56:38,000 --> 00:56:46,480
took her memories in way so he is a good dude he is just a bit more uh stern than uh then kiffry is

471
00:56:47,280 --> 00:56:53,440
so i wonder what his character is going to be and you a bit more stern probably for good reason

472
00:56:53,440 --> 00:57:01,600
yes i mean that's his job right uh he needs to keep uh which is in line that are you know radicals

473
00:57:01,600 --> 00:57:07,920
uh oh like kiffry seems to be although he doesn't definitely doesn't have the air of that he always

474
00:57:07,920 --> 00:57:15,120
seems to be very composed very you know friendly and everything and not many things can really shake

475
00:57:15,120 --> 00:57:21,440
his composure and everything but like i said as we've come to know there is a darker side to his

476
00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:26,640
character there is a driven side to his character and i like that all that makes him very interesting

477
00:57:26,640 --> 00:57:36,080
and again i wonder if put in front of the decision will i help my apprentices or will i get a new clue

478
00:57:36,080 --> 00:57:42,800
or uh uh uh uh about forbidden magic or a particular for ban mit forbidden magic i'm interested in

479
00:57:42,800 --> 00:57:49,440
when the brimmed caps what will i do uh we'll find out maybe even already in the next season because

480
00:57:49,440 --> 00:57:53,920
there's already there's still things happening like i said at the end of the

481
00:57:53,920 --> 00:58:01,200
of the final episode of this season uh that might change the status quo in certain ways we'll see

482
00:58:01,200 --> 00:58:07,120
it's uh it's super interesting there's so much potential in this show uh i we haven't even

483
00:58:07,120 --> 00:58:11,920
kiko hasn't even done one of the big tests yet right she has only done the initial tests

484
00:58:12,800 --> 00:58:19,840
and because she hasn't really done you know there are these four different tests uh in this

485
00:58:19,840 --> 00:58:25,760
in this world that are also linked to the four elements and there's this tower of tomes where

486
00:58:25,760 --> 00:58:31,600
she what that is her short term goal uh right learning enough magic

487
00:58:31,600 --> 00:58:39,280
and uh uh to be able to access the tower of the tomes and then maybe they're finding a magic that

488
00:58:39,280 --> 00:58:47,600
can save her mom that is her long uh her her current goal uh but also that

489
00:58:47,600 --> 00:58:53,200
tower of tomes is protected by four librarians and you have to do at least two tests to accesses

490
00:58:53,200 --> 00:59:01,760
and four tests to be uh considered a full witch and so on so you know the the road map is

491
00:59:01,760 --> 00:59:07,200
laid out in front of us we know what is probably bound to happen in the coming seasons in the coming

492
00:59:07,200 --> 00:59:12,240
story arcs but also i'm pretty sure the brim caps will throw a lot of ranches into that and there will be

493
00:59:12,240 --> 00:59:18,320
a lot of swerves uh happening properly i mean there was already a big swerve at the end of the season

494
00:59:18,320 --> 00:59:24,960
in my opinion that i didn't really see coming so we'll we'll see uh it's it's gonna be super

495
00:59:24,960 --> 00:59:32,000
interesting and koko is just also a very cool character uh i i love the scene where before the bad

496
00:59:32,000 --> 00:59:36,960
things happened the first episode but when she realizes that she is now really able to do magic

497
00:59:36,960 --> 00:59:44,000
when she freaks out about it is because she's so happy again big animation flex just how how all

498
00:59:44,000 --> 00:59:50,800
the different she goes through all the emotions just hammering her head into her pillow out of

499
00:59:50,800 --> 01:00:00,880
excitement and everything really cute really funny so there is a lot of that in uh in in in in this show

500
01:00:00,880 --> 01:00:08,800
she's not as bowly and extroverted as tetia is but she's also very very loud in certain moments and very

501
01:00:08,800 --> 01:00:16,640
uh very excited when she learns especially when it comes to doing magic or learning something new

502
01:00:16,640 --> 01:00:24,560
about magic and everything she's just she's just a hyper nerd she's so into magic and that's cool

503
01:00:24,560 --> 01:00:31,280
and that's fun and i wish her all the best but uh my guess is not only good things will come to her

504
01:00:31,280 --> 01:00:41,200
that's the vibe i'm getting from this story yeah we already know that the brimmed cats have a uh

505
01:00:41,200 --> 01:00:49,120
yeah have a mark on her so yes they seem to have a very special plan uh for her and other

506
01:00:50,480 --> 01:00:57,360
pros potential which is to be we don't know the full extent of that plan yet but we can assume that it is

507
01:00:57,360 --> 01:01:06,160
to to revive the use of forbidden magic by creating new powerful magic users that are able to

508
01:01:06,160 --> 01:01:12,960
instinctively or that have been nurtured from the beginning unknowingly from early is childhood in

509
01:01:12,960 --> 01:01:20,240
being able to use this lost magic that has been kept secret and everything that seems to be their

510
01:01:20,240 --> 01:01:28,160
goal to what extent just overthrowing which a society or maybe they are actually the wrong

511
01:01:28,160 --> 01:01:34,240
ones and the show is gonna just completely put a spin on that in the middle or something like that

512
01:01:34,240 --> 01:01:42,960
where just like hey these wise ones that actually decided to you know uh to keep uh to to not allow

513
01:01:42,960 --> 01:01:51,920
the use of certain magic actually were like these elitist assholes that wanted to to keep the uh certain

514
01:01:51,920 --> 01:02:00,960
kind of magic to the one percent and you know and want to make sure that they uh that it gave them

515
01:02:00,960 --> 01:02:10,000
power to be able to allow magic only to certain people and considering how some parts of this

516
01:02:10,000 --> 01:02:17,120
society already behave in a very elitist way uh that wouldn't surprise me actually if that turns out

517
01:02:17,120 --> 01:02:23,520
to be true like if they're deciding you know the device the people the wise council or whatever they

518
01:02:23,520 --> 01:02:28,640
are called that decide over who gets to do magic and what magic if they are actually the secret

519
01:02:28,640 --> 01:02:34,560
you know villains of this story and the brim caps are just the rebels who decided hey

520
01:02:35,360 --> 01:02:40,400
there is good magic here and that should be allowed like you know like the healing magic that

521
01:02:40,400 --> 01:02:47,600
kiffrey talks about that you know that is also forbidden apparently uh and they said hey we want to

522
01:02:47,600 --> 01:02:55,520
do magic our way and it's either all or nothing and of course they're doing really bad magic as we see in

523
01:02:55,520 --> 01:03:04,800
this uh especially in the final episode of this but probably not all of them are like that right

524
01:03:05,360 --> 01:03:10,560
uh as my assumption yeah you touch on this and I didn't even think of that as a

525
01:03:10,560 --> 01:03:17,440
possible angle for the story but yeah I could see it happening yeah so I really interested

526
01:03:17,440 --> 01:03:22,960
uh really interested into into where it will go where they will go with this like if it will be a

527
01:03:22,960 --> 01:03:27,760
clear cut hey these are the the brim caps are the bad guys and we need to make sure that they don't

528
01:03:27,760 --> 01:03:34,480
get their hands on cocoa and who says she won't be doing forbidden magic down the road but with

529
01:03:34,720 --> 01:03:41,280
you know with good reasons and to for good purpose and with a good outcome maybe she realize

530
01:03:41,280 --> 01:03:47,600
that say this why is this even called forbidden right uh I understand not you know

531
01:03:47,600 --> 01:03:53,440
turning people into frogs or something like that that is a bad thing but actually using magic to heal

532
01:03:53,440 --> 01:04:00,400
people might be something good uh so yeah I'm really interested to see where where where this goes

533
01:04:00,400 --> 01:04:05,360
this this has so much potential and it's such a beautiful show and hey I haven't even talked about

534
01:04:05,360 --> 01:04:13,520
the soundtrack yet fantastic soundtrack really liked it really thought it was uh was a was just a

535
01:04:13,520 --> 01:04:24,560
supremely just a full package in terms of um yeah of of production values uh yeah so I loved it

536
01:04:24,560 --> 01:04:29,840
done how about you if the show is absolutely fantastic from beginning to end like

537
01:04:29,840 --> 01:04:38,880
it's it's cool to know that there's plenty more of that where it came from so I'm just

538
01:04:38,880 --> 01:04:50,640
show me more of this man yeah absolutely um I didn't look up the composer but for now but Yuka

539
01:04:50,640 --> 01:04:59,600
Kita Mura has apparently also done work with FromSofton like Dark Souls 3 Sekiro and Elden Rings so

540
01:04:59,600 --> 01:05:08,400
interesting and cool she she's got like the big orchestra sound there that some of uh this show had

541
01:05:08,400 --> 01:05:16,000
to it so yeah sounds cool where can people watch it you can watch it uh chiefly on crunchy roll it looks

542
01:05:16,000 --> 01:05:24,160
like in some territories it's on Netflix so those are the two big places you can watch it apparently

543
01:05:24,160 --> 01:05:30,240
there was a simile dub did you check out any of the dub no you might have to go back and look it up

544
01:05:30,240 --> 01:05:38,640
just a curiosity so yeah I can do it for the second season whenever that hits true yeah this show is

545
01:05:39,280 --> 01:05:47,600
relatively easy to find uh and you should watch it because it's very good and basically I think

546
01:05:47,600 --> 01:05:53,520
that's the takeaway from this discussion exactly I mean we can extend that uh discussion a bit

547
01:05:53,520 --> 01:06:00,720
because this is our season finale there's still one little thing we have to do

548
01:06:07,920 --> 01:06:18,240
bus for this season so yeah not that many uh shows actually this season uh we only had Snowball

549
01:06:18,240 --> 01:06:26,880
Earth and which at Adelaide so slim pickings but good pickings actually tough pickings because I like

550
01:06:26,880 --> 01:06:34,160
both of these shows a lot Sean how about you they're both really strong picks for different reasons man

551
01:06:34,160 --> 01:06:42,080
I yeah Snowball Earth yeah we hadn't had a I think it's been a minute since we have like a good mecca

552
01:06:42,080 --> 01:06:47,520
anime that we enjoyed what was the last one maybe braver and what was before that I mean depends

553
01:06:47,520 --> 01:06:53,600
on what you want to if you want to count Gundam into that I would say which from Mercury as well

554
01:06:53,600 --> 01:07:00,560
truth or is that so yeah and we're probably forgetting something and being an asshole being

555
01:07:00,560 --> 01:07:07,600
assholes about it but yeah braver and definitely is the last one it comes to mind and which from Mercury

556
01:07:07,600 --> 01:07:15,840
those two but uh yeah that was a it was a very unique take on everything and you know it had fun

557
01:07:15,840 --> 01:07:22,720
characters it had cool action an interesting villain also not necessary a given and necessarily a given

558
01:07:22,720 --> 01:07:28,080
uh like one of those little shows that was not my radar at all and that I had a great time with

559
01:07:28,080 --> 01:07:35,600
so yeah definitely top contender uh for me as well um but for myself I think which had

560
01:07:35,600 --> 01:07:42,320
Atelier etches it out by you know a little bit like first and foremost because of the insane

561
01:07:42,320 --> 01:07:47,680
production values don't get me wrong Snowball Earth looked also really good but there was also a lot

562
01:07:47,680 --> 01:07:57,040
of CG in it good CG mostly but still you know I prefer prefer the hand drawn stuff and just you know

563
01:07:57,040 --> 01:08:03,920
which at Atelier has that in spades so it looks just so damn good and it's not like it's all style

564
01:08:03,920 --> 01:08:09,520
over sub then a substance there a lot of great characters in emotional moments and we don't know

565
01:08:09,520 --> 01:08:15,120
much about the villains yet in this show but they also have a lot of potential and man did you know

566
01:08:15,120 --> 01:08:22,400
the show just looks and sounds so good yeah yeah it does and each character gets at least a small

567
01:08:22,400 --> 01:08:28,480
cool spotlight and enough to you know attach ourselves to them I like Coco I like Richie I like

568
01:08:28,480 --> 01:08:36,000
Kiffrey I liked Ollie I liked Hardja all of these were pretty cool I like brush body

569
01:08:36,000 --> 01:08:42,640
let's see you know there's just so so much cool stuff with so much cool details

570
01:08:42,640 --> 01:08:48,480
many cool details in the show so I think hey and another season Snowball Earth would probably

571
01:08:48,480 --> 01:08:54,320
have gotten it from me but in this one and hey may I hope we'll get the second season of Snowball Earth

572
01:08:54,320 --> 01:09:00,720
so we can I'm pretty sure it was already confirmed very good so looking forward to that so yeah

573
01:09:00,720 --> 01:09:06,080
sure when is happening but it is confirmed yes to go and double check myself

574
01:09:06,080 --> 01:09:10,960
to would definitely talk about that show and maybe it's a season where the other contenders are not

575
01:09:10,960 --> 01:09:17,280
as good it's always it's always funny like I feel like I don't know if it was last season or the

576
01:09:17,280 --> 01:09:21,600
season no not last season last thing we had enough good entries but I think the one before that or some

577
01:09:21,600 --> 01:09:26,960
some other one where it's like okay I like all of these shows I don't necessarily love all of them

578
01:09:26,960 --> 01:09:32,640
or love any of them so which one do I pick and in this case it's like I really really like

579
01:09:32,640 --> 01:09:39,920
or love these shows a lot so I got which one do I pick so it's always tough when you have two

580
01:09:39,920 --> 01:09:47,520
shows that could potentially be also shows that are fresh and new and you don't know much

581
01:09:47,520 --> 01:09:51,680
many more seasons they will get and when they'll come back and then you have to decide but hey

582
01:09:51,680 --> 01:09:58,560
that's how it is and I think this time the award goes to which I tell you at least from my side

583
01:09:58,560 --> 01:10:06,640
John how are you deciding the hope is that any given adaptation will be seen through to the end

584
01:10:07,360 --> 01:10:16,160
that is true but that's also a reality most of the time so and sometimes they switch studios and then

585
01:10:16,160 --> 01:10:25,680
start looking like complete ass one punch man so to your eternity oh yeah I mean even to your

586
01:10:25,680 --> 01:10:32,960
eternity has some moments of brilliance in it even the previous the latest season but you know

587
01:10:32,960 --> 01:10:40,080
it's also not only marked by production values the story is also really a mix back and then some

588
01:10:40,080 --> 01:10:45,600
shows get the switch up to a worse studio and then get switched to a studio that actually cares

589
01:10:45,600 --> 01:10:53,360
about the material data live and that's that that that's a nice version of that yes just

590
01:10:53,360 --> 01:10:59,440
but I mean this is a show we get to have our cake and eat it too so

591
01:11:00,720 --> 01:11:08,160
that's true I did really really enjoy both these shows for their merits and for different reasons

592
01:11:08,160 --> 01:11:14,400
so since you said which I tell you I guess I can say snowballers that's true that's absolutely

593
01:11:14,400 --> 01:11:19,280
that's a benefit when we only have two shows and not like in the previous season was like five or

594
01:11:19,280 --> 01:11:26,240
six at you know we can only pick two at most all next season I think it's going to be like that so

595
01:11:27,040 --> 01:11:35,200
yeah yeah at least for if I'm not miscounted me possibly five but we'll figure that out

596
01:11:35,200 --> 01:11:44,000
but yeah I mean which I tell you a head a really strong start in I'm glad I listen to not

597
01:11:44,000 --> 01:11:50,800
friend of the show Song Wan Cho to check it out yes hey you can become a friend off the show if

598
01:11:50,800 --> 01:11:59,040
he wants to you could you could come on the show prosity I don't think he knows we exist so he

599
01:11:59,040 --> 01:12:05,360
definitely does not but that's fine that's fine that's that's that's fine but yeah which I tell you

600
01:12:05,360 --> 01:12:14,000
just had all sorts of back literal magic and whimsy and fun to it and snowballer head just like

601
01:12:14,000 --> 01:12:20,320
this unexpected character pieces that just really carried it for me so I think they're both great

602
01:12:20,320 --> 01:12:25,920
but you know like like I said you said the one so I'll say the other and I think they're definitely both

603
01:12:25,920 --> 01:12:33,280
worth checking out and since they'll be coming back at some point I they'll probably be worth

604
01:12:33,280 --> 01:12:40,400
continuing to check out I hope yeah yeah absolutely looking forward to doing that and yeah that's

605
01:12:40,400 --> 01:12:47,680
the end of the season we have definitely a couple of shows lined up for you next season so look

606
01:12:47,680 --> 01:12:53,840
forward to that and until then brace yourself for fall and winter because they're both coming

607
01:12:53,840 --> 01:12:59,600
but there's some things to look forward to like the midterms

608
01:12:59,600 --> 01:13:11,600
hey how can we not have time remake there's that that's a reliable I hope I hope that will be

609
01:13:11,600 --> 01:13:20,880
reliable source of joy we'll see yeah we'll see we'll see all right so until the next time we talk to

610
01:13:20,880 --> 01:13:27,040
you may the wind in your back never be your own

611
