Speaker 1: Welcome back to Jeff Jeff's Bizarre Adventure, the only anime
Speaker 1: podcast on the Internet. Welcome, everyone, Welcome. It's a pleasure
Speaker 1: to be here. Crazy a couple of weeks, months, I
Speaker 1: don't know how long it's been. I don't know where
Speaker 1: this is going, but it's a pleasure to be here,
Speaker 1: and especially due to the company of one Empress of
Speaker 1: the cat Race. It's Suster James carry cage.
Speaker 2: It has a wares If you have coin, I do
Speaker 2: appreciate it, I assume.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Is it because my cat was going absolutely mental on
Speaker 2: my chair a minute ago?
Speaker 1: Yes?
Speaker 2: Is it just the fact that I'm constantly covered in
Speaker 2: cat hair?
Speaker 1: You know what? It can be a little boat. It
Speaker 1: can be a little boat.
Speaker 2: Hang on, you saw how much cat hair I was
Speaker 2: covered with her all times, didn't you? And John, like
Speaker 2: we met for the first time there.
Speaker 1: Hey, we did you know what we should cover?
Speaker 3: That?
Speaker 1: We should? We should We'll get there.
Speaker 2: We'll get there.
Speaker 1: To my right, a man formerly known as the Night Rain,
Speaker 1: but who has recently run into some branding trouble.
Speaker 3: It's two more what I've run into branding trouble because
Speaker 3: of because of the I'm not interpreting cat race. I
Speaker 3: was like, why are they racing cats? And why is
Speaker 3: there an empress involved in the racing of cats? And
Speaker 3: I was like, okay, cool, Yeah, but I have run
Speaker 3: into you know what, I've run into various issues lately,
Speaker 3: so then the branding one is obviously at the top
Speaker 3: of the list.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean like, look, you're you're you've been writing
Speaker 1: your letters to from Soft, You've been asking him to
Speaker 1: change the name of the game. I think it's going
Speaker 1: to go well.
Speaker 3: Personally, I think I got a big I've got a
Speaker 3: polo rid of me is okay, given me the middle finger?
Speaker 3: Then get bent on it, which is very weird.
Speaker 1: I know. And it's like it's such a like late
Speaker 1: nineties insults, say Tracy Beaker, he.
Speaker 3: Was he was wearing a T shirt, so wearing like.
Speaker 1: A backwards baseball cap as well.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it had like the little pin wheel on
Speaker 3: the top.
Speaker 1: That's crazy, man. Artists, you just you just never know.
Speaker 1: Speaking of which, it's the Renegade, there's the Troublemaker. It's
Speaker 1: Jeff Beckelaer.
Speaker 4: Jeff.
Speaker 1: How's things going any any major monumental life changes since
Speaker 1: our last episode?
Speaker 4: No, it's been quiet, child. I gotta say in a
Speaker 4: way him, in a way, it's been quiet on the
Speaker 4: home front. Nothing's happened.
Speaker 2: You played your first.
Speaker 4: DND game, that's right. Oh my gosh, I did my
Speaker 4: first sort of D and D game. I don't think
Speaker 4: we got very far in it, but us we did.
Speaker 4: We did the Sea Queen or something. Yeah, dice sets
Speaker 4: were purchased.
Speaker 3: And they spend money.
Speaker 4: Nope, nope, nope, Stacey made me spend money.
Speaker 1: Stacey fucked in on that experience, which I really go
Speaker 1: into it.
Speaker 4: She got trapped in its laser force, magnetic laser whatever
Speaker 4: you want to call it, tractor beam, and she's all
Speaker 4: up in D and d's guts these days, see berserk guts.
Speaker 1: I also had they sent your first podcast, Jeff.
Speaker 4: Look, I've done this a few times, No big deal whatever. Also,
Speaker 4: I loved our panel. I had a lot of fun
Speaker 4: with that. Thank you for everyone who came out to that.
Speaker 1: And yeah, that was that was a really special little moment.
Speaker 1: I thought we all met physically in human bodies.
Speaker 4: Yeah, we touched. We touched every time we happen human.
Speaker 1: In meat space, meat space. That was it. And how
Speaker 1: did the versions? Okay, I realized that I feel like, Hey, yeah,
Speaker 1: I always think like, especially like the scale of people,
Speaker 1: Like it's always different to what it is in your head. Yep,
Speaker 1: what i'd say, I'd say, like, like, you can never
Speaker 1: interpret really how big or small someone is until you
Speaker 1: meet them in person.
Speaker 4: That's usually how it works, right.
Speaker 1: Because because you're just like here, we're basically just staring
Speaker 1: at floating heads.
Speaker 4: Right, yeah, that's exactly right.
Speaker 2: Goes down to let my waist.
Speaker 4: But you know, if the first time I met you, John,
Speaker 4: I wasn't like, I wasn't disappointed with what you looked
Speaker 4: like in real life. I wasn't like, oh God, I'm
Speaker 4: gonna walk the streets in Manhattan with this fucking It
Speaker 4: wasn't like that. You know, Hey, that's a compliment.
Speaker 1: I don't know where disappointment came into it. Jet interesting
Speaker 1: that that's that's right where your mind went.
Speaker 4: You're right, that was back of my head was upsetting.
Speaker 2: Sure, Sorry, did you think I was taller or shorter?
Speaker 1: Lucy? You were so much smaller than I thought you
Speaker 1: would be.
Speaker 2: Does that mean it's because I've got I've got the
Speaker 2: air of someone who is much much bigger and powerful.
Speaker 1: I think it's a voice you have quite a commanding voice.
Speaker 1: And then when I would say so yeah.
Speaker 2: I feel like I can have a big laugh sometimes.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, I think when you have tall person energies
Speaker 1: slighter than maybe I thought you would be.
Speaker 3: I feel like most people who never met you would
Speaker 3: guess your six foot.
Speaker 2: I wish I'm I'm on the smaller side in my family.
Speaker 2: That's the thing. On my mom's side, I am the tallest,
Speaker 2: like out of everyone. But on my dad's side, I
Speaker 2: am the shortest, five tive nine seven. My sister's five ten.
Speaker 4: I'm taller than you. Yeah, okay, can you remember that
Speaker 4: you have this yeah?
Speaker 2: Like I am?
Speaker 1: I am? I am also five seven and a half.
Speaker 4: It's a big half.
Speaker 1: It's a look.
Speaker 3: That half is doing a lot of work.
Speaker 1: I am just shooting for accuracy here. If we want
Speaker 1: a round to the nearest, I'm five eight. But I'm
Speaker 1: not fair. I'm not gonna lie about that.
Speaker 4: Well, that's fair, I mean, and thank you for using
Speaker 4: the imperial system. That's also very charitable of you.
Speaker 1: That's okay. Years years of watching wrestling, I can only
Speaker 1: weigh myself in pounds and measure myself and feet.
Speaker 4: Okay, fair, And then Tam you're like, what five eleven?
Speaker 3: I think I'm five to ten?
Speaker 4: Yeah, you and I feel like the same.
Speaker 2: Feels taller to me.
Speaker 3: And looking down at you may say otherwise.
Speaker 4: So then I think either I have terrible posture or
Speaker 4: you're five eleven.
Speaker 3: Maybe I am five eleven. I've not like measured myself
Speaker 3: bite wise, you know, not well many thanks gonna wait
Speaker 3: these days fair enough?
Speaker 4: I get it. Well, that goes over the vitals of
Speaker 4: the group.
Speaker 1: Let's cover blood type.
Speaker 2: I actually don't know. For someone who has bloods all
Speaker 2: the time, I have no idea what blood type is.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think I'm like, I don't know. I think
Speaker 4: I'm ab.
Speaker 1: Was I telling you guys? How like the first three
Speaker 1: people I met at PAS were like, oh, you're you're shorter,
Speaker 1: and I thought you'd be. Yeah.
Speaker 4: I didn't want to bring it up, but I'm really
Speaker 4: glad you did, you know, because I like that you
Speaker 4: like talking about it, because you can have fun with it,
Speaker 4: you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm having fun here, Jeff. I
Speaker 1: think maybe I'm coming. I'm coming to three friends for
Speaker 1: comfort and time of great pain.
Speaker 3: You definitely, you definitely aren't shorter than I thought you do.
Speaker 3: I when I saw you, I did think, yeah, that's
Speaker 3: the build of someone who does martial arts, because it's
Speaker 3: like steady frame, like grounded.
Speaker 1: Like.
Speaker 3: I looked at you and I was like, yeah, that
Speaker 3: is a difficult ground game encounter.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you have to be this.
Speaker 1: Size, you have to be You don't know how much
Speaker 1: that means to me. Thank you.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would not want to fight you on the ground.
Speaker 4: Or in the sky.
Speaker 2: I'd fight you in the sky.
Speaker 1: In the sky, I'm gonna I'm gonna be real with you, guys.
Speaker 1: I'm pretty weak in the sky and I go down
Speaker 1: like a sack of ship and it's just it's completely hopeless.
Speaker 1: But I'm not it was.
Speaker 3: It was.
Speaker 1: It was super fun, Like it was a really really
Speaker 1: uh it was really great obviously, like being finally able
Speaker 1: to hang out very tumultuous weekend to do that. But
Speaker 1: I mean, I think something happens to have like a
Speaker 1: really really good I'm still not sure what you mean,
Speaker 1: but okay, okay, cool, cool, Okay, fine, it's sure. It's
Speaker 1: just it's I've just never quite had the experience of
Speaker 1: doing a panel and not like arriving at a con
Speaker 1: for a panel. I'm not sure legally if we could
Speaker 1: put it on the following day, But just you know
Speaker 1: what do I mean by that doesn't matter? We don't
Speaker 1: want to talk about it.
Speaker 4: Those are called fun obstacles, okay.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, those those aren't the challenges, their opportunities.
Speaker 3: Or mission modifiers.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, you had a lovely steak dinner.
Speaker 1: We did. Me and Tom shared the most delightful breakfast.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that was good. That place was incredible.
Speaker 1: That was so good, and we're both super healthy. Both
Speaker 1: got bowls of porridge. Wasn't it wasn't a fucking killer
Speaker 1: bowl of porridge?
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was good. It was real good. If we
Speaker 3: ever go back there, we should take everyone. It wasn't
Speaker 3: random stumble upon as well. Like we walked down it
Speaker 3: was cold as hell and windy, and when we got
Speaker 3: inside it would we were perfectly prime to eat porridge,
Speaker 3: warm porridge and have coffee.
Speaker 2: Very fable, fably of you, you know, like it's.
Speaker 4: The whole thing. Sound the British as fuck.
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna lie like Grim's fairy tales.
Speaker 4: Yeah, some poor reach, yeah that kind of yeah. Okay, well,
Speaker 4: I mean that's that's what I'm hearing in my mind
Speaker 4: in my mind, the theater of my mind, Lucy, Lucy.
Speaker 1: Jeff did an impression of an Irish person when I
Speaker 1: was talking to him recently.
Speaker 4: There's just.
Speaker 1: Can I tell you?
Speaker 3: Please?
Speaker 1: Can I say what you said?
Speaker 4: I don't remember what you're talking about, so this will
Speaker 4: be news to me as well.
Speaker 1: John, go ahead, So you guys know me, I sure
Speaker 1: love to pull out the famine whenever I need to. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: and I so Jeft did an impression of an Irish
Speaker 1: person and I said, you know how many people died
Speaker 1: in the famine, Jeff, like just real serious deadpand like that.
Speaker 1: And he just responds, was it seventeen million?
Speaker 4: I said, seventeen mil?
Speaker 2: Yes, seventeen Did you do an Irish accent to say that?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 4: No, maybe I like it, he said.
Speaker 1: He was an impression of me talking, which Jeff loves
Speaker 1: to do from time to time, and it's just for us.
Speaker 1: But yeah, no, it was great, And like the panel,
Speaker 1: I came not a finel feeling like all we hit
Speaker 1: a home run there. That was fucking awesome.
Speaker 4: That was great.
Speaker 1: That really disappointed me was I didn't realize the death
Speaker 1: note the potato chip clip I had was the sub
Speaker 1: and not the dub, and I don't want to say it,
Speaker 1: my heart kind of broke because I was like, this
Speaker 1: is going to be as a quarter as funny.
Speaker 2: My favorite thing about the Death Note thing, so for anyone,
Speaker 2: because I don't think we have we were recording as
Speaker 2: a panel. I don't know it was streamed somewhere.
Speaker 4: It's out there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, John and Tam collected a bunch.
Speaker 1: Of it's on my panel, my regular panel.
Speaker 2: Amazing. Yeah, So John and Tam like collected a bunch
Speaker 2: of anime clips that we showed to Jeff, who then
Speaker 2: had to guess what the whole anime was about. And
Speaker 2: MY favorite thing about watching the Death Note one with
Speaker 2: him is that he did not see Riok at all,
Speaker 2: the creepy death god in the vaulted down vulture man
Speaker 2: the whole time. And so Jeff was just like, and
Speaker 2: I was just aghast at that, because I feel like
Speaker 2: that's the one thing you really zero in on when
Speaker 2: you watch Death Note. But maybe that's just I mean, it.
Speaker 1: Was just he wasn't he wasn't watching it an ideal
Speaker 1: circumstance either.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was on like the nineteen inch monitor ten feet.
Speaker 4: Away, which I was advertised would be at least forty two.
Speaker 2: Okay, maybe I misremembered.
Speaker 4: Yes, it's okay, it's fine. I had my glasses on.
Speaker 4: I could see the vulture. I kind of just pushed
Speaker 4: out of my mind because I found deeply upsetting.
Speaker 1: So speaking of putting your glasses on and nothing will
Speaker 1: be wrong, nice baby. Sorry to cut across the Jeff,
Speaker 1: but like that landed into your lap very often.
Speaker 2: Jeff wouldn't know because he skips the intro for every
Speaker 2: anime that we watch. So you know what you don't remember, Tim,
Speaker 2: and I appreciate that.
Speaker 4: I remember put your classes on. I know, okay, I know,
Speaker 4: I know what it sounds like. I know I watched
Speaker 4: one of them.
Speaker 1: So okay, I do have to say, no, I have
Speaker 1: a I like that theme song me too.
Speaker 4: It's grown on me a little bit, but it's bad,
Speaker 4: but it's growing on me sure.
Speaker 1: But what I will say is that you know Forces,
Speaker 1: this song that very occasionally plays, and it plays for
Speaker 1: the next time on the like the real just the
Speaker 1: fucking banger ass song. Yeah, imagine being the dude who
Speaker 1: wrote Forces and they're like, we're not going to use
Speaker 1: it for the opening. We got we got this other song.
Speaker 1: And then someone hits play on a boombox. This is
Speaker 1: this is the nineties. That song comes out of it,
Speaker 1: and it's just imagine, imagine the disrespect. Imagine how that
Speaker 1: would feel. And then they're like, we're also not going
Speaker 1: to use it for the op or for that for
Speaker 1: the ed either the ending. No no no, no, no
Speaker 1: no no, we have one for that too, And then
Speaker 1: it's that mess.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's just a weird ending song there.
Speaker 1: And then they're like, but don't worry, We're going to
Speaker 1: play it for the last fifteen seconds of every episode
Speaker 1: as an old man talks over it.
Speaker 4: Yep. I mean I guess you rethink your career at
Speaker 4: that point, right, yeah, you know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but yeah, I was. I was so excited to
Speaker 1: watch these episodes today. I for for a little while there,
Speaker 1: I was unsure when or how we're going to be
Speaker 1: able to do it. And I was like, and immediately
Speaker 1: just back into it, and we hope we start on
Speaker 1: this scene and it's Guts facing down a bunch of
Speaker 1: men with Caska by his side, and immediately just taking
Speaker 1: the temperature here. What do you guys think of these episodes?
Speaker 4: I love to.
Speaker 1: I there's something about this budding relationship that made me.
Speaker 4: Really like it. Like they kind of they kind of
Speaker 4: like in a weird way, Carbon copied a little bit
Speaker 4: of that emotional rollercoaster that some of the other characters
Speaker 4: are were sort of going through. But we learned a
Speaker 4: lot about Caska before these two episodes and her loyalty
Speaker 4: to Griffith. We understand that. But to see it kind
Speaker 4: of like pivot and then focus on old Guts, you.
Speaker 1: Know, likes shit's getting a little a little muddled. Things
Speaker 1: are motivations are kind of spiral a little bit. Here.
Speaker 4: You go through with an event like that with someone
Speaker 4: and it unlocks feelings that perhaps were undiscovered prior.
Speaker 1: You know, so just correct myself there. It doesn't immediately
Speaker 1: open up on the showdown. It opens up with Guts
Speaker 1: and Casca walking in the woods, and you know what,
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna say it, Goods gets a little or
Speaker 1: slash men's rights here at the start of the episode, Yeah,
Speaker 1: a little bit.
Speaker 4: He's just like he turns out, I forgot I forgot
Speaker 4: you were a woman. That's unfortunate for my situation right now,
Speaker 4: is basically what he says to Casca.
Speaker 3: Yeah, dangerously close to a women do be shopping moment
Speaker 3: that's just like chill.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think maybe the one thing that saves it
Speaker 1: a little bit is afterwards, when she like gets pissed
Speaker 1: off and starts walking again, he does give her a
Speaker 1: little bit of a like that's what I thought.
Speaker 2: I feel like, well, I feel like maybe he was
Speaker 2: doing it to like kind of like push her forward
Speaker 2: in a little way, like totally like that.
Speaker 1: That's my read on the scene, and I still still
Speaker 1: wouldn't advise it. I could say that this would not
Speaker 1: work on Michelle, Michelle or me, yeah no, or any
Speaker 1: woman I know ever, but I appreciate that gouts. Maybe
Speaker 1: the bad things were coming from a good place.
Speaker 4: I he does say he does try and like redeem
Speaker 4: himself a little bit where he's like, how am I
Speaker 4: supposed to know? I'm not a woman and you're on
Speaker 4: your period? Is kind of what he says.
Speaker 1: I think for I would say, once again, that would
Speaker 1: sure not fly with Michelle or any woman I know.
Speaker 1: But you know what, guts look, he's not he's not
Speaker 1: he's not a master conversationalist, not like all of us
Speaker 1: got the words messed.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, not to make excuses for him, but like this
Speaker 3: is a child learning how to interact with other people
Speaker 3: for the first time. He has gone his entire life
Speaker 3: just wandering around killing things and has no real like
Speaker 3: good social dynamics. So not to make excuses for him, because.
Speaker 1: I like that that is his character, and like he
Speaker 1: practically talks about that next next episode as well.
Speaker 2: Did you guys see that owl with the really human face?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, what the.
Speaker 2: Hell was up with that?
Speaker 4: There's a couple there's a couple of drawings in this uh,
Speaker 4: in this tandem here that I was not thrilled with how.
Speaker 1: Their depict ones, and there are some not great ones.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Samson, I'd like.
Speaker 3: To chime in, I am every now and then there's
Speaker 3: an animal in this in this show the series that
Speaker 3: looks like a c Man moment from Dreamcast where you're like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 3: that's that's a human face.
Speaker 1: Look, it's unintentional in your life drawing humans, and then
Speaker 1: one day you have to draw a fucking owl and
Speaker 1: it's hard. Okay, your your path has not prepared you
Speaker 1: for that moment. Old habits right, put a face on
Speaker 1: this now, huh.
Speaker 2: Like medieval cats, you know, like magin like cats, human.
Speaker 1: Face, they're so good they're so good the names some
Speaker 1: of them as well.
Speaker 2: They what names.
Speaker 1: Oh there's list of like medieval names for cats, and
Speaker 1: they're just the most insane ship you've ever heard.
Speaker 3: Googling googling. I saw a video the other day of
Speaker 3: a woman who was talking about her cat, which he
Speaker 3: named Coronavirus, which I thought was very funny.
Speaker 4: That's just weird.
Speaker 1: I think I knew a cat once called Osama bin Laden.
Speaker 3: Oh god, okay, that's choice is our door indoor cat?
Speaker 1: Indoor cat? Okay, then you're safe the way they'd call
Speaker 1: it sama. But yeah, that was that was the cat's name.
Speaker 4: That is wild.
Speaker 1: Look, Rural Ireland has this weird thing where it has
Speaker 1: so little interaction with other cultures that it is both
Speaker 1: more and less racist.
Speaker 3: Over there. It's the only place where you can argue
Speaker 3: that someone naming the cattle Salomon Ladden was completely innocent
Speaker 3: because they just thought it was a funny word or
Speaker 3: a funny.
Speaker 1: Some of Laden is someone They may be heard on
Speaker 1: Sky News once when their television accidentally tuned into that channel.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, will allow it.
Speaker 1: Kask and Guts are attacked here by what I can
Speaker 1: only describe as crowded Goober's.
Speaker 2: Technical term.
Speaker 1: That is absolutely the technical term. Harold led again by
Speaker 1: our boy whose name I can't instantly forget every episode.
Speaker 3: Or something like that.
Speaker 1: Every time I look at him, I think of Biskanovich,
Speaker 1: but that's tech n.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think of Buzo, which is the first.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's corbel wits right, right, but it's it's it's
Speaker 1: just spelled.
Speaker 4: It's a it's a name whose letters do not make
Speaker 4: sense in the order in which they're in. And I
Speaker 4: think that's what sort of you know, throws everyone for
Speaker 4: a loop when you see that, You're like, how am
Speaker 4: I meant to read that? I don't know what to
Speaker 4: call him. I also think every like I feel like
Speaker 4: I've seen him die eleven times and he's just back
Speaker 4: every episode.
Speaker 3: I know he has got.
Speaker 4: A new set of bandages, way less teeth.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I like the teeth thing. When he's just like
Speaker 2: off side, you just see that, like from from the
Speaker 2: right hand side. Don't want see just a zero.
Speaker 4: Did not affect his speech one iota, which is amazing.
Speaker 2: He's been in speech therapy. He's doing well.
Speaker 4: Well, that was fast.
Speaker 2: He's given to his lessons.
Speaker 1: I like the thing of bad guy returns more fucked
Speaker 1: up every time. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I also do think
Speaker 1: they lead you to believe he has died, but that
Speaker 1: it's fun.
Speaker 4: This is the funny. It's comedy comedy.
Speaker 1: Yes, right, look, Jeff, it's a dumb cartoon.
Speaker 4: It's just a cartoon.
Speaker 3: Jeff, I'll give you ten dollars if you can tell
Speaker 3: me his first name.
Speaker 1: It's not coming away and said many times, yeah I
Speaker 1: believe it, but I but I'm stuck on the corble wits.
Speaker 3: You know, does anyone know, Steve? No, No, it's because
Speaker 3: it's the worst one ad.
Speaker 1: I'll remember it because the street fighter.
Speaker 3: Street fighter. Yeah, that's that's the only reason I remember it.
Speaker 3: Because he looks he's got the same kind of deranged
Speaker 3: face as on in this.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, Yeah, you know what. You couldn't give
Speaker 2: me a thousand years, I never would have got there.
Speaker 1: So he's basically like, I'm back and this time surely,
Speaker 1: And we get a very long sequence of basically guts
Speaker 1: murdering people with at this point what seems to be
Speaker 1: a five meter long sword, a very.
Speaker 2: Dull blade on that five meter long sword, m h
Speaker 2: which the.
Speaker 1: Dullest what's about to get duller I really like the
Speaker 1: contrast to like the way that Guts and Casca fight here,
Speaker 1: because like Goots is basically beating people to death with
Speaker 1: a giant steel club that just happens to be kind
Speaker 1: of sharp, whereas Caska is like she's targeting arteries. She's
Speaker 1: kind of just sliding past people. It's it's fun, It's
Speaker 1: it's really really cool.
Speaker 2: It's versus strength build Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 3: He also makes himself a much bigger target by doing
Speaker 3: all that kind of stuff. I feel like it's a
Speaker 3: tactical advantage for him, which they I think they mentioned
Speaker 3: it later on with like when he's on a battlefield,
Speaker 3: he's just drawing all the agro because of his insane
Speaker 3: sword and his moves, which is a it's so interesting
Speaker 3: way to look at his function in a army. It's
Speaker 3: like his way of helping. The more unhinged he acts
Speaker 3: on a battlefield, the more like he's trying to like
Speaker 3: help his friends around him.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's very funny.
Speaker 1: How aid on thank you Tim is now like every time, sure,
Speaker 1: every time Guts makes his way through like ten guys,
Speaker 1: he's just like.
Speaker 4: Well now he's now he's like limping a little bit,
Speaker 4: So you guys will have no problem, and then another
Speaker 4: ten guys he has. Now he has now hurt his
Speaker 4: left hand, and now he's even more vulnerable now.
Speaker 1: Forms to have seems to have slightly brained his ankle. There,
Speaker 1: that's that's probably a good thing.
Speaker 3: Can everyone just former circle around him? Please?
Speaker 4: It's so funny they can't fight him.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's actually a really good bit much later on
Speaker 1: where the same thing is happening and there's someone being like,
Speaker 1: could you just stop attacking him? Like, just no point this.
Speaker 1: We then get to meet Aidan's brother, whose armor I love.
Speaker 1: It's what's the name of that anglerfish?
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's exactly right, light.
Speaker 1: Yees, so fucking cool. And he is the strongest next
Speaker 1: to aid On, the strongest member of the second Whale
Speaker 1: super heavy m hm.
Speaker 4: Italians something like that Blue Whales.
Speaker 2: There's the White Rhinos, the band of the Horse.
Speaker 1: Animals, the Blue Whale, super strong heavy assault mites. Yep,
Speaker 1: that's pretty fucking cool.
Speaker 3: I see.
Speaker 2: And if you had to be in a battalion, what
Speaker 2: animal would you like to be?
Speaker 3: I mean, I think I think we're all obligated to
Speaker 3: say crow.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I do like crow three three of us Crow,
Speaker 4: I think you crow.
Speaker 3: No no, no, no, no, no, no, octopus, we have
Speaker 3: no more vacancies in the bend of crow. Octopus.
Speaker 4: There's three animals I really enjoy before if we're counting
Speaker 4: crows right.
Speaker 2: Accidentally A number one.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's pretty great. Number one, the mighty elephant.
Speaker 3: Number two.
Speaker 1: Why why? John, I'm not I'm not disputing it, but
Speaker 1: I guess I'm that's not what I expected.
Speaker 4: Sure to the wh why because elephants are like shockingly intelligent.
Speaker 4: They don't seem to take any shit, and they don't
Speaker 4: use their like massive size for evil.
Speaker 1: Mike could show you some YouTube videos.
Speaker 4: That, yes, Survival of the Fittest and all that, but like,
Speaker 4: I just think they're amazing and they also I think
Speaker 4: they also like are are naturally immune to certain diseases,
Speaker 4: which I find fascinating, and I just really dig them.
Speaker 4: I think they are super cool. And there's certain animals
Speaker 4: where you like look at an animal just from like
Speaker 4: maybe even a nascent, sort of childish point of view,
Speaker 4: and you're just like, how the fuck did that thing happen?
Speaker 4: You know, like I and an elephant does that for me? Sure,
Speaker 4: the sameish kind of like thing there the wise and
Speaker 4: nocturnal owl I think is a is a dope animal.
Speaker 4: And then the octopus. The octopus hyper intelligent. We barely
Speaker 4: understand them, and they are easily, hands down the closest
Speaker 4: thing we have to like what would probably be extraterrestrial
Speaker 4: life on our planet, simply because the ancestry of the
Speaker 4: octopus is so far from ours. Like a lot of
Speaker 4: the land creatures on Earth, you can draw a lot of,
Speaker 4: like the DNA similarities. The octopus veered off so much
Speaker 4: earlier on an evolution and did its own thing. That
Speaker 4: thing can like hear colors, it can like its tentacles
Speaker 4: like there were I was reading this National Geography thing.
Speaker 4: We're like, if an octopus put its tentacle into a
Speaker 4: room that it could not see, it would know what
Speaker 4: color of the room is. Like I'm talking fucking alien shit.
Speaker 4: I love it.
Speaker 1: And they're super smart and they can camouflage and that's
Speaker 1: bad ass. It kind of sounds like the octopus is
Speaker 1: your number one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're out there.
Speaker 4: It's a it's a mount rushmore if you will.
Speaker 3: I think it's pretty funny that all that knowledge is
Speaker 3: not commonly known, and it requires people to know it
Speaker 3: to think that being called like the band of the
Speaker 3: octopus is cool. So like ninety five percent of the
Speaker 3: time people will see the band of octopus and be like,
Speaker 3: why why octopus?
Speaker 2: Noems like a reconnaissance.
Speaker 4: Yeah me, I mean I think people think octopi are cool.
Speaker 4: There's there's like cracking mythology that is related to that
Speaker 4: that sort of like fed into that. Yeah, October obviously
Speaker 4: right after the Kraken.
Speaker 1: You know, you say if I told you that. Shortly
Speaker 1: before this podcast, I had drawn an octopus, a little
Speaker 1: octopus character wearing a basketball jersey in my notebook.
Speaker 4: Why why is it a basketball jersey?
Speaker 2: To ask, I want to see.
Speaker 3: It's because when you've got that many tentacles, you got
Speaker 3: more opportunities to don't.
Speaker 1: Because I need I needed his six arms to come
Speaker 1: out through the eight. Well two, he has two legs.
Speaker 1: So that's that's how the character.
Speaker 4: Oh so this is just like a fallacy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so it's it's it's it's oh my lord, there
Speaker 1: there is Wow. I did something to send to a
Speaker 1: character designer earlier today, and I drew this in maybe
Speaker 1: ten seconds.
Speaker 4: That's so cool. I love it. I love it. That
Speaker 4: is weird. That is weird. But I also do love crows.
Speaker 4: Crows are also hyper intelligent. CROs hyper intelligence.
Speaker 1: That's my well, okay, wolves and crows. But I'm rad
Speaker 1: like that. You know, I'm like a shadow of the hedgehog.
Speaker 4: Okay, body, okay, fella huh okay, okay, okay, Yeah, crows
Speaker 4: a rule. What else can you say? They're fucking badass,
Speaker 4: do you know what?
Speaker 2: You know?
Speaker 1: My favorite thing about crows they're just kind of jaunty.
Speaker 1: You see them hop around. Yeah, they're pleasure pleasure to watch.
Speaker 1: Crows know their crows, you know what I mean? Absolutely,
Speaker 1: Like I am pretty sure dogs do not know their dogs.
Speaker 4: Not like the dogs are the most in the moment
Speaker 4: animal for sure, like living in the now kind of thing.
Speaker 4: Crows are. They're well aware. They know the fucking dynamic,
Speaker 4: they know the fucking spread.
Speaker 1: You know, really do they really really do?
Speaker 3: And they just love that hold a grudge? Yeah, they do.
Speaker 4: They hold grudge.
Speaker 1: Any animal that holds a grudge, I'm kind of down with. Yep, yep,
Speaker 1: Jeff elephants. I remember this is an ancient internet memory.
Speaker 1: One of the first videos I saw on the Internet
Speaker 1: was I think it was like some village somewhere in
Speaker 1: India and it was uh it was an elephant rampaging
Speaker 1: through the village. Yes, and for whatever reason, men kept
Speaker 1: charging at it. And what it would do is it
Speaker 1: would pick them up in its trunk and throw them
Speaker 1: to the side, and this would happen over and.
Speaker 4: Over and like place them down into a bed of pillows.
Speaker 4: You mean uh.
Speaker 1: No, no, it would.
Speaker 3: It would.
Speaker 1: It would body slam them several feet from where it
Speaker 1: had picked them up. Okay, it's one of those. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was just it was one of the first things
Speaker 1: I ever saw from the Internet where I was like,
Speaker 1: that's crazy.
Speaker 4: Crazy.
Speaker 2: That just made me remember the story about the elephant
Speaker 2: like a few years ago that killed a woman and
Speaker 2: then returned to trample her corpse at her funeral. Oh yeah,
Speaker 2: Also have Gradua?
Speaker 1: Did that that really happened?
Speaker 2: Yes it did, I'm looking at it on the Independent.
Speaker 2: Didn't right now?
Speaker 1: Okay, Tom, what's your give me some animals?
Speaker 3: I said crow. I was the one who said crow.
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, but I take crow.
Speaker 3: And if I can think of another animal, it will
Speaker 3: probably be that bird, that evil looking bird that when
Speaker 3: it like claps his beaks sounds like gunfire.
Speaker 1: Oh that fucking count draculas looking bird.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, Jeff, have you seen this bird? No, let
Speaker 3: me find it, but it is. It is. People know
Speaker 3: it as the bird. It's called the shoe bill stork.
Speaker 3: Google that.
Speaker 4: Oh, I know it. Yep.
Speaker 1: Oh.
Speaker 4: It is like a horrifying like grammar death bird. Yeah
Speaker 4: it is.
Speaker 3: It is incredible.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's it's a funk. It looks like God, it
Speaker 4: looks like an animatronic dinosaur from Jurassic Park.
Speaker 2: It looks like evolution stopped back then it's and it.
Speaker 1: Looks like someone's wearing it as a mask, like a
Speaker 1: human is wearing it as a mask.
Speaker 4: It is, my god, the stuff of nightmares. I can't
Speaker 4: look away. It's on my monitor on the left side.
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna look there now. I almost have to
Speaker 4: like put my hand on it and then find the
Speaker 4: tab clothes button. I've got. I did it. It's gotten
Speaker 4: out of you.
Speaker 1: Before we return to Berserk, Lucy gas animals.
Speaker 2: I love a cat, obviously. I like like kind of
Speaker 2: insects to insects count.
Speaker 4: Here like a you like bugs?
Speaker 2: I do like bugs like a snake.
Speaker 1: Oh. I realized today that spider's fuck and that it
Speaker 1: kind of ruined my day. Honestly, Well, how did you
Speaker 1: think it all worked?
Speaker 4: There? John?
Speaker 1: Flies work?
Speaker 4: Flies? Fuck?
Speaker 1: They don't? They very sexual?
Speaker 4: All right? They lay eggs?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Why can't spiders be like that?
Speaker 4: I only believed flies fuck from that Alkaline Trio lyric, Well,
Speaker 4: you gotta see you got.
Speaker 2: To stop letting pop punk teach you everything.
Speaker 1: Take my yeah, take your world. Yeah, I understanding of
Speaker 1: the natural words. It was there at first. It was
Speaker 1: their inaccuracy is over the chemical compound of glittering, And
Speaker 1: now this.
Speaker 3: Very good.
Speaker 1: Glistering. Glistering is one of those songs where like it's
Speaker 1: kind of corny, but that comes on and I just
Speaker 1: can't help stare at a window and just be like.
Speaker 2: Wait, am I thinking of the right glistering? Is that Bush?
Speaker 4: No, you're talking about Bush made on talking about Bush?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I thought you were making an alkaline joke. I
Speaker 1: thought you were making an alkaline joke.
Speaker 2: But I was like, I don't know what's the song
Speaker 2: that they had in Tony Hawk Armageddon.
Speaker 4: Arma again?
Speaker 2: Yeah. I just don't like a big a big cat,
Speaker 2: any of the big cats, jaguar, a cheetah. I love
Speaker 2: a lion, but who does it? Lion feels like very basically,
Speaker 2: you know, I don't like that much.
Speaker 4: I like watching the lion They're horrifying.
Speaker 1: Wow, it's just just something about the mame bothers me.
Speaker 1: Sure it's stupid, you could say it is stupid.
Speaker 2: It's like like the fact that the lionesses are the
Speaker 2: hunters and they have a power in the society. You know,
Speaker 2: sure they don't like monkeys, dude. I chimpanzees No.
Speaker 4: I mean that's the closest.
Speaker 1: That's the problem. Yeah, I know, they're very scary. Chimpanzees
Speaker 1: are fucked up.
Speaker 2: Like I'm a cac monkey. Sure, the little playful guys, they're.
Speaker 4: Very up in the situation. I mean, look, we're so
Speaker 4: we are so close to them. Did you watch that.
Speaker 2: Documentary about the woman who had the chimp and then
Speaker 2: you know about it? Face off.
Speaker 1: I have listened to that nine to one one calls
Speaker 1: bad reasons, it don't matter, it's real bad. But chimps
Speaker 1: are just smart enough to realize what we did.
Speaker 4: Yeah, man, it's not good. We do not have a
Speaker 4: good That's why Planet of the Apes exists is just that,
Speaker 4: you know, caveman fear we have.
Speaker 2: I hate every chimp I see from chimp fats a. No,
Speaker 2: you'll never make a monkey.
Speaker 1: Okay, fine, we can. That's all time Simpsons. Another another
Speaker 1: all time Simpsons joke is Gots and Caska being surrounded
Speaker 1: by Look, they can't all be winners.
Speaker 2: We just have like a twenty minute seg about chimps
Speaker 2: and animals and OCTOPI.
Speaker 1: The agony of a good segue knocking you off schedule
Speaker 1: or something I struggle with on podcasts.
Speaker 2: Yes, the agony, the ecstasy.
Speaker 1: Gotta let this ride, Jeff. Jeff's talking about octopuses.
Speaker 2: But he's actually very passionate about them.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I was really taken aback by that, Jeff.
Speaker 4: Thanks, I think they're Nope.
Speaker 1: So what I like about when Aidan's brother shows up
Speaker 1: here is subtract.
Speaker 2: Get it because it's like add on subtract.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, Lucy,
Speaker 1: what are we doing? Yeah, buddy, I like it. Lucy, listen,
Speaker 1: we just got this podcast back. I don't want to
Speaker 1: be too dramatic here, but you are. You are driving
Speaker 1: it off a cliff. It is not your plaything, Okay, well,
Speaker 1: and I'll give it to yourself. Okay, I appreciate it. Uh.
Speaker 1: The weird thing about this anime is like, I think
Speaker 1: there are definitely drawings that look so janky in this
Speaker 1: show where it's like there's one of there's a couple
Speaker 1: of Kaska here. I think they really struggle with Casca sometimes.
Speaker 1: But I think it also looks fucking awesome sometimes as well.
Speaker 1: And I love him when Aiden's brother comes out and
Speaker 1: immediately begins like hurling his ball and chain at like
Speaker 1: trees and stone just flexing and these things are just
Speaker 1: disintegrating under it, and I just it looks so good
Speaker 1: and it's all done by hand, and it's just man,
Speaker 1: it makes me happy.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and then.
Speaker 1: And then what dude has his fucking skull caved in
Speaker 1: by goots?
Speaker 4: Yeah? But but and also and also you know, it's
Speaker 4: so funny because Aidan's like, yeah, his ball and chain
Speaker 4: will like pulverize anything. It's not it's like you've got
Speaker 4: no shot, instant kill one dead, you know, one punch
Speaker 4: your dead, that's it. One hit, you're dead. And then
Speaker 4: we start see it. We start to zoom out a
Speaker 4: little bit and we see Samson twirling around his big
Speaker 4: ball and it's just drawn as like this grayfish man
Speaker 4: blob that looks real dumb. I gotta say real stupid
Speaker 4: looking because it's also like it's just one color gray
Speaker 4: and it's there's no like shadow, there's no any sort
Speaker 4: of like perceivable definition in the in the artistry of it,
Speaker 4: and it just looks like human grayfish man and I
Speaker 4: and I just had to laugh because it was so
Speaker 4: it was just so bad looking. Look, I get it,
Speaker 4: they can't all be bangers. I'm not you know, I'm
Speaker 4: not gonna say I'm disappointed, but that looked like shit.
Speaker 1: Well, I just really hope the staff who animated the
Speaker 1: nineties Berserk never listens to this podcast, because I think
Speaker 1: that would probably devastate them.
Speaker 4: Jeff, I'm sorry. I just have to be honest.
Speaker 1: You know you are sorry.
Speaker 3: Do you have to do you have to? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I have to make forcing you to be honest. Like
Speaker 1: watch this, Jeff, I thought it looked amazing.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's the thought. That's take. That's a descent.
Speaker 1: You don't have anything nice to say, totally totally.
Speaker 4: And that ball is just like, like I was like,
Speaker 4: it will kill you right away. It'll suck up a horse,
Speaker 4: it would kill a rhino, it would take down a mountain,
Speaker 4: and Berserk is just like ping, just knocks it off. First.
Speaker 1: First, First of all, Jeff, his name is Guts, not
Speaker 1: the name.
Speaker 3: Of incredible death.
Speaker 1: Are four year old talking about you know?
Speaker 4: You know it's amazing, you know what's amazing. I have
Speaker 4: to do the mental gymnastics every time, Like, for as
Speaker 4: long as I can remember, I always assumed that Guts
Speaker 4: his name was Berserk, and I have to like get
Speaker 4: out out in front of it. I'm just having an
Speaker 4: honest and open moment here with my friends, and I've
Speaker 4: had to all this time be like, it's not his name, idiot,
Speaker 4: his name's Guts. And I didn't know that going into it,
Speaker 4: and I didn't really understand that. So maybe the second
Speaker 4: or third episode, but here we are. It's a moment
Speaker 4: of vulnerability that I'm happy to share with you all.
Speaker 3: I just love the idea there watching it and going
Speaker 3: like his name is Guts, and he's his name is
Speaker 3: berserk and he's going berserk. I love this.
Speaker 1: I don't need to remember any words at all.
Speaker 4: That's that's some bad, all right, you know.
Speaker 3: I in my mind I apply that same role for
Speaker 3: you to everything. So literally, anything I think about you
Speaker 3: watching you, call it by the name of the thing
Speaker 3: that it's named after They're like, oh, this is ash
Speaker 3: Ketch him and his sidekick Pokemon.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, what's what's one punches? The name to his.
Speaker 1: Name is Pych, but fairness like that one is actually
Speaker 1: like one, you know, I know, but but I guess
Speaker 1: One's the reason you get away with the Jeff is
Speaker 1: that his name in your head for some god forsaken reason,
Speaker 1: is Berserk. But his actual name is Guts, which is confusing. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because no one's name is guts. You can't name someone guts. No,
Speaker 1: Guts is not a.
Speaker 4: Human person names. His guts is like a it's it's different.
Speaker 1: Wait.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so thank you very well explaniated.
Speaker 1: Appreciate it anyway. Uh, Berserk takes down Samson and Uh.
Speaker 1: In doing so, Kaska is able to get away, but
Speaker 1: once again her menstrul problems. Yeah, hamper her athletic ability. Lucy,
Speaker 1: this is I don't know how to talk. He's doing great, Okay,
Speaker 1: I mean okay, this is.
Speaker 2: That like exercise in some cases will help with cramping. However,
Speaker 2: if you have them that are so exceptionally bad like
Speaker 2: casca has and just nothing's gonna you just got to
Speaker 2: pop some pills. Get like a little heat pad and
Speaker 2: call it a day them I'm afraid.
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, unfortunately to Cascar, there is no heat pad
Speaker 1: currently available in the world of Berserk, but maybe in time.
Speaker 1: So she is then accosted by uh five lecherous people
Speaker 1: mercenaries or and she takes out two of them and
Speaker 1: three kind of pin her down. This is an uncomfortable scene.
Speaker 4: This feels bad a lot.
Speaker 2: Sexual assault, especially in the manga, Like at the very
Speaker 2: beginning of Berserk, it's just a lot of it, and
Speaker 2: I think it hasn't Mir said, Like, didn't he say
Speaker 2: at one point that he kind of regrets having so much.
Speaker 1: In the I don't know.
Speaker 2: I feel like they pull that out every time they
Speaker 2: talk about it.
Speaker 1: On the second I don't remember specifically if he said
Speaker 1: he regretted it, but there's definitely way way less later on. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like at a point that kind of side of Berzerk
Speaker 1: sort of disappears pretty much. But Jeff, have we ever
Speaker 1: told you what the first page of the of Berserk is?
Speaker 4: You might have, but it's not bringing the bell right now.
Speaker 1: I think maybe we did, but just mention it. It's
Speaker 1: it's goods having sex with a demon lady. And then
Speaker 1: he shoots her with his with a cannon.
Speaker 4: Yeah, like during it, yes, m hm, you know, I'm saying,
Speaker 4: oh at all, that's that's really.
Speaker 1: A breating donkey punch known to man.
Speaker 4: Why was he he was having sex with her and
Speaker 4: he just killed her.
Speaker 1: I don't really know, Jeff, and honestly, I don't think
Speaker 1: twenty one year old Miura knew at the time either.
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, this was just okay, all right. That context
Speaker 4: makes it a little easier to swallow, but that's upsetting.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So basically we end on this scene where Guts
Speaker 1: is ripping through these fools. There are so many shots
Speaker 1: of Guts slicing a night in half and Kaskas struggling
Speaker 1: against her attackers, and we end and I think overall,
Speaker 1: very good episode, a lot of action. I really enjoyed
Speaker 1: the animation in this part. I think so many of
Speaker 1: the shots are really well composed and they are clearly
Speaker 1: doing everything they can with what feels like, you know,
Speaker 1: a limited production, but it works. I bought into every
Speaker 1: moment of this. Yep, heh.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: And it's also just like I think the next episode
Speaker 2: does a lot more to obviously show the relationship between
Speaker 2: the two, but like there are these little moments of
Speaker 2: vulnerability from both sides, like Guts trying to take on everyone. Yes,
Speaker 2: he's going berserk, but and he likes doing it. But yeah,
Speaker 2: he has those moments where he does show that he
Speaker 2: cares for Caskar and Casker. Oh, I love her so much,
Speaker 2: we'll get that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I've really turned around on her. You know.
Speaker 1: I was kind of like rules, Yeah, I'm a fan, cool,
Speaker 1: big fan. Don't I understand how old is everyone supposed
Speaker 1: to be? Do we have like idea they're all like
Speaker 1: seventeen ages?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: I think yeah, I because like I think Guts is
Speaker 2: like it does say in the manga, because I think
Speaker 2: he's like sixteen, seventeen eighteen here, like he's very young, because.
Speaker 3: I think he's like like thirteen ish when he joined
Speaker 3: the Yeah, by the end of the Golden Age, he's
Speaker 3: like eighteen.
Speaker 1: That's so fucked up.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I think that's right. Yeah, it's eighteen
Speaker 3: or nineteen.
Speaker 1: So probably around like seventeen ish here.
Speaker 3: Maybe he's nineteen during the he's definitely nineteen during the.
Speaker 1: Uh the.
Speaker 3: The event that happens. I don't want to say what
Speaker 3: it is.
Speaker 1: So Guts is fighting away here, and he's taking more
Speaker 1: and more damage. He's getting cut up, he's like getting
Speaker 1: caught with little slices and stuff, but he continues to
Speaker 1: fight on. Meanwhile, Kaska kind of she gets back in
Speaker 1: control of the situation a little bit. She's trying to
Speaker 1: fight off her attackers. It's a bit of a struggle
Speaker 1: and then out of nowhere, Dagger slams into one of
Speaker 1: the attackers eyes and he lets out some scream like
Speaker 1: it's like.
Speaker 2: So, I have no idea.
Speaker 1: That one's just for the for the listener.
Speaker 2: Did he make Tom and Jerry like eHow.
Speaker 1: Yeah, pretty, it's like that, but it's it's really like,
Speaker 1: I have to do it quiet because quick, you do
Speaker 1: it real quick? Yeah, more glacial, more like a horse.
Speaker 4: Can you guys, can you guys walk me through the
Speaker 4: second to second beats of how Casco is able to
Speaker 4: do this, because they really imply that she's not able
Speaker 4: to do what doesn't she stab him?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 2: She stabs him with a stick? Yes, yeah, yeah, she
Speaker 2: grabs a stick and then jabs it in his eye.
Speaker 1: But because he gets distracted for a second, I think,
Speaker 1: I think I see what's happen. What's going on here?
Speaker 1: Jeff is asking would a woman be capable of performing
Speaker 1: these actions?
Speaker 3: Chill, that's not who I got head in his hands,
Speaker 3: that's not who I am.
Speaker 4: They finished the episode thirteen and they're just like Caska
Speaker 4: is in a band spot right now.
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, you ever thought? I thought problem seemed insturmountable, Jeff,
Speaker 1: And then you know, you sleep on it, and you
Speaker 1: kind of come back to.
Speaker 4: Because we're not sleeping on it. This is she do
Speaker 4: is actually in an.
Speaker 1: Entire episode, Jeff, I don't know what to tell you.
Speaker 4: Okay, never mind.
Speaker 3: She she looks to she looks to the right hand
Speaker 3: side to try and look see if she can grab
Speaker 3: her sword, and she can't grab. In the next episode,
Speaker 3: she's on the floor, she picks up the branch from
Speaker 3: her left hand side, so presumably she saw the branch
Speaker 3: and I was like, okay, I can use this instead,
Speaker 3: it's closer, and then she grabs it and jabs him
Speaker 3: in the eye with it. It's a very small stick
Speaker 3: as well, it's not even like a Do you.
Speaker 1: Ever notice how like Jeff's never questioned this with either
Speaker 1: male character.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's kind of weird. Honestly, this.
Speaker 4: Sucks, man, I'm not thanks Lucy, It's nice to hear
Speaker 4: that from one person. I'm a woman, wow, yes, yes, yes,
Speaker 4: and therefore you protect me here.
Speaker 2: Oh wow, I do have a lot of power. This
Speaker 2: is why everyone thinks I'm tall.
Speaker 4: That's it.
Speaker 2: And it's because my neck is like three feet long.
Speaker 4: You said it, not me. Okay, It's not three feet long.
Speaker 4: That would be really weird. Just oh god, maybe it is.
Speaker 2: I want the record to show that I like stretch
Speaker 2: my neck out. And John just raised their eyebrows in
Speaker 2: like a it is.
Speaker 1: It's it's a long neck. It's it's a long neck.
Speaker 2: It's a sign of beauty in some cultures.
Speaker 1: In some cultures it looks fantastic. And I'm this one.
Speaker 1: But I was just I was taking it back there
Speaker 1: for a second. I was like, wait again, Lucy, she's
Speaker 1: not talking shit here. That's that's legit.
Speaker 2: I would never lie about it, Lucy.
Speaker 4: You gotta it's that neck is there? I, as someone
Speaker 4: who has no neck, a normal human being, I'm envious
Speaker 4: of your neckage. There you go there, I said it
Speaker 4: feel better now anyway, Kaska very strong, very impressive, very happy.
Speaker 4: She gets out of that situation.
Speaker 1: Yeah, our boy Judo shows up and I don't know
Speaker 1: at this point, but can we just acknowledge Judi fucking
Speaker 1: rules fairly aware of his existence up until this moment.
Speaker 1: I mean, he kind of barely says ship. He's not
Speaker 1: really been important until this moment. But it's cool because
Speaker 1: we're establishing him as an important person. Ninja Daggers, I
Speaker 1: get it, and that's dope as the I know, they
Speaker 1: really didn't focus on that until now. Ponytail, I get it.
Speaker 1: He's cool. He's got the rice smile of a sun
Speaker 1: soaked cat.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he walks through all those bodies, He's like, what
Speaker 4: the He's like, what the He's like, what the fuck
Speaker 4: happened here?
Speaker 1: He's like, I'm counting one of them. I'm counting one
Speaker 1: hundred bodies. I think I want to be a member
Speaker 1: of the all this ship. And he did do that,
Speaker 1: do that.
Speaker 4: But it's cool. No, Guts did not berserk. You're not
Speaker 4: following along, Lucy. We're learning things in this episode.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, it's berserk and he's going guts.
Speaker 4: This show should be guts. Okay. It would have been
Speaker 4: more relevant at the time too, because there's a Nickelodeon
Speaker 4: show called Guts around the same time. And that would
Speaker 4: have been awesome.
Speaker 1: What is this show?
Speaker 2: What is the manga called in Japan? Well, I went
Speaker 2: to a sticker shop and I tried to get some
Speaker 2: berserk stickers and they did not know what I was
Speaker 2: putting down. And then the only way she got it
Speaker 2: is when I went gutsu. Garriffith, Yes, I love them,
Speaker 2: but I said berserk, and she was like, no, I'm
Speaker 2: afraid we don't have that here.
Speaker 3: That could have just been I mean, was it a
Speaker 3: Japanese person.
Speaker 2: It was a Japanese person, so I don't know. I
Speaker 2: wouldn't know how to say that with a.
Speaker 3: Japanese Yeah, it would be like a beserku like ah, yes.
Speaker 2: So I did not do that. Yeah, but when I
Speaker 2: said gutsu, that's when she she knew she was in
Speaker 2: and they didn't have any So it was a wasted trip.
Speaker 2: Didn't have any jojo either. Fucking mountains of one piece.
Speaker 1: Oh dude, it's all jiu jitsu kaison one piece one piece.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it was a little bit.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a lot of lucy. Have you checked out
Speaker 1: jiu jitsu?
Speaker 2: No, but it is on my list.
Speaker 1: Good ship, good ship? Is it?
Speaker 2: It is?
Speaker 1: It is No, it takes a minute. But damn, that's
Speaker 1: the second season.
Speaker 3: It was a bit weird.
Speaker 1: I figured out my watched the second season time and
Speaker 1: you didn't like it.
Speaker 3: I haven't watched all of it. I started it and
Speaker 3: I was like, what's going on?
Speaker 1: Is just like this? Okay, I understand, pushed through my friend.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I am going on.
Speaker 1: You were seconds away from that becoming amazing.
Speaker 2: My commute is the exact length of one anime episode,
Speaker 2: at least if I'm on the bus, which is pretty great.
Speaker 1: Okay, can I can I? Can I reveal you guys something.
Speaker 1: I've developed a new interest the years, not nearly nearly,
Speaker 1: after years of the internet trying, I've gotten into Camon Writer.
Speaker 3: Oh okay, damn, So this is It's it's paral Rangers,
Speaker 3: It's Rangers, and but the dude looks like a bug man.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 1: Well, the one I'm watching at the moment is called
Speaker 1: Camon Writer gave, and Camon Writer gave. The gimmick is
Speaker 1: that he eats. He eats sweets and then he takes
Speaker 1: the form of those sweets. So if he he has
Speaker 1: like a jelly bean suit and a potato chip suit
Speaker 1: and a cake suit. That was really powerful.
Speaker 3: Back lad, do you remember the reference to this character
Speaker 3: in another anime you've seen?
Speaker 4: Yeah, in one lunch man, Yeah, uh Kuman writer?
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 3: No, what was it? What is it?
Speaker 4: I remember?
Speaker 3: You could not have fun Yeah, you could not have
Speaker 3: picked a funny or worse one than writer.
Speaker 2: What was it?
Speaker 4: I forget? He got his ass beat by the dinosaur guy?
Speaker 1: It was the Emperor, Jeff, How do you have approximate
Speaker 1: knowledge of everything?
Speaker 4: Because that's the thing I can like remember vaguely a lot,
Speaker 4: never precisely better nothing.
Speaker 3: Women in Japanese, I believe, means like unlicensed.
Speaker 4: So oh, that's funny, that's pretty good. And we went
Speaker 4: through the whole thing like we understand. I understood that
Speaker 4: it was like a knockoff of you know, common Writer,
Speaker 4: and common Writer is also like a band. We went
Speaker 4: through the health yeah, and then yeah, yeah, yeah, he
Speaker 4: was like dollar Store rider. It's pretty funny, and he
Speaker 4: got his ass beat and I don't like him.
Speaker 3: He tried really hard.
Speaker 1: He tried so hard.
Speaker 4: He tried so hard, he wasn't even close.
Speaker 3: Didn't get so far.
Speaker 1: No, speaking of someone who did get far. The band
Speaker 1: of Hawk or Judo and Kaska come back on this
Speaker 1: scene and our boy, Guts is just sitting there in
Speaker 1: the most peaceful, serene sunset, sourrounded by dead bodies. I
Speaker 1: love how this scene looks. I think there's some really
Speaker 1: beautiful drawings of Guts here.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree. And it's just like because it's the
Speaker 2: sun rise, isn't it sunrise? And so it's like you
Speaker 2: can just imagine the stillness in the forest, like after
Speaker 2: all that chaos, all that bloodshed, and he's just sat
Speaker 2: like an absolute statue at the base of the tree,
Speaker 2: and there's all the armor of them running as fast
Speaker 2: as they can to get there in time to help
Speaker 2: him out, and he just doesn't need it, and he's
Speaker 2: just having this beautiful.
Speaker 1: Moment, but he is maybe about to die.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean he is bleeding out quite a lot,
Speaker 2: he has been.
Speaker 3: I love how Lucy like painstaking leap painting this really
Speaker 3: beautiful picture. And then John goes, he's gonna die.
Speaker 1: He is dying, that's me sentient YouTube comments section John.
Speaker 3: Fast.
Speaker 1: Oh. So they bring Goots back to camp and he's
Speaker 1: in a rough way, but he's okay, he's not doing
Speaker 1: so bad. And then we get a little scene I
Speaker 1: really really like, and it's casca like drinking with her boys.
Speaker 1: She's drinking with some of the rank and file band
Speaker 1: of the Hawk, and you kind of, I think, for
Speaker 1: one of the first times you kind of get to
Speaker 1: see like the average soldiers like Admiration of Kaska. They're
Speaker 1: they're kind of delighted to be around her, but they
Speaker 1: have a lot of respect for as well.
Speaker 2: Big sis. Wait if we gone past the little caucus scene,
Speaker 2: because he.
Speaker 4: Was God, what does he say?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Oh he has like two lines, buddy, it's maybe five words.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he didn't die?
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, what is he? He's just like gods us
Speaker 4: back and not visibly not dead something like that.
Speaker 1: Right, I'll be damned he's alive after all.
Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1: It's like, well, Carcus, Corcus, shut the fuck up, Like, well,
Speaker 1: you know, you're the only one in the band who's like,
Speaker 1: I still want Gods dead.
Speaker 2: You know, he's clearly by a long shot.
Speaker 4: Yeah, if Guts dies, Carcus, you're your chances of survival.
Speaker 1: At this point, Carcus is like, I could take him.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I could still fuck him up. Now now
Speaker 1: let me at him. Yes, okay, Jeff, that's that's that's
Speaker 1: today's assignment. You are Carcus talking about how you could
Speaker 1: beat guts in a physical fight.
Speaker 4: Of course, I can look at him. He's all fucked up.
Speaker 4: He's all fucked up in in goofy on his deathbeds. No, now,
Speaker 4: he's still hurt, he's still injured.
Speaker 1: He's coming over here.
Speaker 3: You should say this stuff to him.
Speaker 4: He's visibly limping and bleeding profusely all the This is.
Speaker 1: Good sucking people. People said, you wanted to say something
Speaker 1: to me.
Speaker 4: I I wish you nothing but the speediest of recoveries.
Speaker 1: Of course.
Speaker 4: You did you hear otherwise, whatever it is, it's hearsay.
Speaker 1: Oh thanks man, Okay, Goods is gone again.
Speaker 4: That little bitch.
Speaker 3: Carcus sounds like the kind of guy who would get
Speaker 3: really into like one of those like one hundred unarmed
Speaker 3: men versus one silver back gorilla arguments, Yes, I can
Speaker 3: take him.
Speaker 2: Actually, Caucus has one friend, the gorilla energy from recess recess.
Speaker 1: Yeah he does.
Speaker 4: Wow, I don't know what that is, but yeah, he
Speaker 4: would totally.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they'd be like nobody's nobody is expecting an attack
Speaker 1: from above, gorilla. Man, I'm the only one attacking you
Speaker 1: from the air, like the hawk. I am band of
Speaker 1: the Hawk. You see what I did there, I'm the Hawk.
Speaker 1: No one realizes that proves me.
Speaker 4: Yes, Gorilla, your day's are number.
Speaker 3: You know what? I just like.
Speaker 2: The other day.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know.
Speaker 4: That's why I said.
Speaker 3: I just realized what what your caucus voice reminds me of?
Speaker 3: And sadly, I think it was like Lucy and maybe
Speaker 3: a few other people listening to this, it's Henry Zebrawski's
Speaker 3: spring Hill Jack.
Speaker 2: God it is.
Speaker 4: And away, up and away.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's the same one. So yeah, last podcast is
Speaker 3: my voice? Last left they do like when they did
Speaker 3: they Jack the Ripper episode going back here. For a
Speaker 3: period he was known as spring Hill Jack, and he
Speaker 3: gave him a voice which is exactly your caucus voice.
Speaker 3: Whenever you do that voice. There's a bit in the
Speaker 3: podcast he's like, I'm ready to record, and it reminds.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, that's interesting. Okay, Henry, it's the police.
Speaker 2: There.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Nevertheless, futs, I said it quietly to myself, but I
Speaker 1: still said it. So we get this scene then where
Speaker 1: it's Caska. She's approached Judo and Judo's like, Judo, can
Speaker 1: I talk to you? Bro?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Judo. Ah. This scene it's like kind of means one
Speaker 1: thing when you're watching it. When you're rewatching it kind
Speaker 1: of means a different thing.
Speaker 4: What do you mean, is this the way?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: What did you get from the fairy dust scene?
Speaker 1: Jeff?
Speaker 4: So okay that they're doing drugs now now, Like drug
Speaker 4: use is a big part of the berserk world.
Speaker 1: He think's next episode, Griff, it's going to be like,
Speaker 1: got's give me the drugs.
Speaker 4: I think Guts is going to go up to Kaska
Speaker 4: and be like, I need my fix. I need you
Speaker 4: to rub that green powder all over my stitches again
Speaker 4: because I'm in a bad way right now. They started
Speaker 4: bleeding again, they started weeping again. Give me that green
Speaker 4: Give me that green powder. Where is it at?
Speaker 2: Well? I remember I do love in the animation that
Speaker 2: like whenever you can see the blood through guts as bandages,
Speaker 2: it's like an ass like a spray, but it moves
Speaker 2: like holes the whole.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like a different layer.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and this is the same with the green paste. Anyway,
Speaker 2: this scene with Judo, what did you take from it? Jeff?
Speaker 4: I don't know. I was like, is he a fairy?
Speaker 4: Is he like some crazy fairies? He like a shape shifter?
Speaker 3: You know? Is that what it is.
Speaker 4: I don't know. Why does he have this green medicine?
Speaker 4: That's like apparently he literally told you, I don't remember
Speaker 4: what he say.
Speaker 2: He was traveling with a band of folks.
Speaker 4: And they had a fairy, band of fairies.
Speaker 2: No, a band of humans, but they had a fairy
Speaker 2: or they met a fairy.
Speaker 4: How does how do you get fairy dust? You have
Speaker 4: to grind up that fairy.
Speaker 3: Probably no fairies have access to fairy.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's there, it's their currency kind of that only
Speaker 4: they can possess.
Speaker 2: I am sad that. Could you imagine the fund that
Speaker 2: Jeff would have with Puck?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I have fun with every day there's Jeff would
Speaker 1: fucking hate Pook. I think that's the fun So Jeff.
Speaker 1: One of the characters that is not featuring in anime
Speaker 1: Berserk is a small car fairy called Pook who follows.
Speaker 1: I know we talked about I've seen that, You've shown
Speaker 1: me the drawings. Yes, interesting, but I don't know. I
Speaker 1: like this scene a law and I think like even
Speaker 1: just a little glimpses into Judo where he talks are
Speaker 1: traveling around with like a troop, like a circus troop.
Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, that's where he learned his kind of
Speaker 1: he's a CARNEYE. He's a Carney. Yeah.
Speaker 4: You but you guys, see what you do is when
Speaker 4: you when you hyper focus on a seemingly innocent interaction,
Speaker 4: like between Judo and Caska, You're like from my perspective
Speaker 4: where I'm seeing, and I'm like, all right, guy fucking
Speaker 4: knows a fairy big deal, doesn't make it special. Yeah,
Speaker 4: but you guys are are injecting a level of important.
Speaker 1: My favorite thing about this podcast is like Jeff having
Speaker 1: no fair way to understand what's happening and exactly being
Speaker 1: like stupid Jeff doesn't get it again.
Speaker 4: I know, it's like making fun of like a baby
Speaker 4: that can't walk yet, you know, it's like, what a
Speaker 4: dumb baby? You can't walk? Yeah, why don't you learn
Speaker 4: how to walk?
Speaker 1: But we get a little maybe it's in the previous team.
Speaker 1: We get a little snippet here as well, where Griffith
Speaker 1: isn't actually at camp. He had to like go back
Speaker 1: to like hang out with the nobles, and clearly this
Speaker 1: really hurts Casca. Yeah, but Judo gives Casca the fairy
Speaker 1: medicine and she tells them, she says, go give it
Speaker 1: to go apply it to Goots, which is an interesting
Speaker 1: do you know into playing that that himself? You know, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: well you know maybe it's like, look I saw you guys.
Speaker 1: You know you seem to be a little close to
Speaker 1: maybe you want to touch him.
Speaker 4: Maybe I don't have to.
Speaker 1: Okay, I just I just want to draw emphasis to
Speaker 1: that and that scene because I think it says something
Speaker 1: later on. Okay, And then we get this and in
Speaker 1: the manga this and this episode has called it as well,
Speaker 1: but the manga is called the Bonfire of Dreams, and
Speaker 1: a lot of people really consider this section like a
Speaker 1: really central important part of this circuit. People always talk
Speaker 1: about the Bonfire of Dreams and what this whole segment is.
Speaker 1: You got this section where this little cutaway in the
Speaker 1: in Gutz's fight with the Hundred Men, where he's kind
Speaker 1: of like, what the fuck am I doing here?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 1: This is this is pointless, you know, And here you
Speaker 1: start to get him really like delving into that pot
Speaker 1: with Kaska and she's rubbing medicine on him and he's
Speaker 1: basically saying to her, like you your dream is Griffith.
Speaker 1: Griffith's dream is the Kingdom. This other dude dreams of
Speaker 1: marrying this girl. This other dude dreams of being a baker.
Speaker 1: I have fucking nothing like I have. I don't have
Speaker 1: a purpose, I don't have a dream. I'm still in
Speaker 1: a lot of ways like this kind of wild dog,
Speaker 1: just surviving, just doing whatever I can to survive. And
Speaker 1: I'm very good at surviving. I can really kill people
Speaker 1: with this eight meter long sword. But I that's all
Speaker 1: I am, and I want to be more than that.
Speaker 1: And I think it's really like it is. It's powerful
Speaker 1: stuff like just I can't even make any jokes about it.
Speaker 1: It just genuinely it's like it's you're watching a person
Speaker 1: realize that like he needs, he needs a reason to live.
Speaker 1: He needs more than just like going from one day
Speaker 1: to the next.
Speaker 2: I think the way he phrases it too, about everyone
Speaker 2: is a little light but he's just someone who sits
Speaker 2: by the bonfire is very powerful way of saying it
Speaker 2: as well. And like you can see the realization in
Speaker 2: Kaska's face as he's talking, and then she's like, oh,
Speaker 2: does this mean you're lea But it's also you know,
Speaker 2: like compared to the guts who joined the Band of
Speaker 2: the Hawk, the fact that he knows the names of everyone.
Speaker 2: The fact that he knows what their dreams are kind
Speaker 2: of shows this emotional growth and like he has had
Speaker 2: this as a home for a few years. In the
Speaker 2: fact that he has the emotional maturity to realize that
Speaker 2: he has to find himself and find something else to
Speaker 2: like find his purpose is a very powerful, powerful.
Speaker 1: One hundred present to all that. Like that is so true,
Speaker 1: and it's one of the it's it's it's one of
Speaker 1: the really beautiful moments in Brazik where you really can
Speaker 1: see like, Okay, these people are like growing and changing
Speaker 1: as this is being on.
Speaker 3: It's time for software reference of the weay it is.
Speaker 3: I don't know how well if this is like standard thinking.
Speaker 3: But this is also one of the episodes where I thought, oh,
Speaker 3: this is a massive influence on from software because one
Speaker 3: bonfire of dreams. Bonfires are central to to like doctor Yeah,
Speaker 3: and it is about you know, achieving an objective or
Speaker 3: like changing things. It's also an episode about fighting and
Speaker 3: dying and continuing to fight when you're not sure why
Speaker 3: you're doing it, you're just repeatedly doing it, which is
Speaker 3: what Guts is going through and figuring it out, which
Speaker 3: obviously is the central conceit of of every Soul's game.
Speaker 3: Almost every game they mentioned some version of You're gonna
Speaker 3: fight and You're gonna die. And in Dog Soles two especially,
Speaker 3: they say and you won't know why and and that
Speaker 3: is like a I think it's a specific reference to
Speaker 3: to this moment from Uh.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Jeff, Like what what what do you take from
Speaker 1: this scene?
Speaker 4: You know, he's talking about his you know, like the
Speaker 4: fires and like the fire, the flame, the attraction of
Speaker 4: the flame and Griffith and this whole thing. You know,
Speaker 4: it's like I think that stuff like I don't take
Speaker 4: guts for to be this like poet, right uh, And
Speaker 4: I don't think he kind of like earns this this
Speaker 4: little speech he kind of gives right now for for
Speaker 4: for my taste. But I still think it like Lands
Speaker 4: and the and the sort of like essence of it.
Speaker 1: Lands.
Speaker 4: I do notice like there's a lot obviously, like a
Speaker 4: tremendous amount of self reflection, uh, very very you know,
Speaker 4: laid on very thick throughout Berserk. So I I understand,
Speaker 4: you know, maybe I can have a little bit of
Speaker 4: like forgiveness for for why that's happening here.
Speaker 1: But I think you know, for me, this is what
Speaker 1: he's shows us thinking, like what do you think he
Speaker 1: wants to do?
Speaker 4: Well? I know Kaska is very much like is this
Speaker 4: more than relieving? Like is he is he out? Is
Speaker 4: he out of the Hawk the band? The Hawk band
Speaker 4: that we've all formed. He plays drums and that's crucial,
Speaker 4: Like this is this is a problem for us moving forward? Yeah?
Speaker 4: I mean you know, I look, he has that moment
Speaker 4: he's killing all the guys. He's like, what am I
Speaker 4: doing here? Am I gonna die in this disgusting forest?
Speaker 3: Like?
Speaker 4: What are we doing? Maybe he is developing some of
Speaker 4: the emotional intelligence, emotional maturity of like being a person
Speaker 4: with agency and instead of this like mercenary life that
Speaker 4: he sort of has lived and and all these all
Speaker 4: these conflicting ideologies and internal things coming to a head.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 4: And you know, obviously in the blast radius of this
Speaker 4: epiphany are the people who he's come to care about,
Speaker 4: including Kaska and and Griffith. So that's what I'm assuming
Speaker 4: we see unfold in the next handful of episodes.
Speaker 1: M hm. Then just as kind of like it really
Speaker 1: feels like the two are about to have this kind
Speaker 1: of moments like whatever that moment might be. It turns
Speaker 1: out to Griffith's back at camp. They both rushed down
Speaker 1: to see them, and Caska immediately starts apologizing to Griffith
Speaker 1: and like she's right back into like just being Griffith's
Speaker 1: Griffiths first, you know, Griffith's Griff's girl. And this really
Speaker 1: cute moment where Goots kind of like pushes her into
Speaker 1: Griffith to disrupt her apology. That was funny, griff It's
Speaker 1: just like, it's cool to see you, and Caska starts
Speaker 1: It's just it's just it's one of those moment. And
Speaker 1: then like basically Goots goes off drinking as Caska hangs
Speaker 1: out with Griffith, and it's just this moment of like
Speaker 1: and everything was fine.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's yeah, but it does a lot a big
Speaker 4: lift of table setting here, right, and just totally you know,
Speaker 4: if this would almost work as like a cliffhanger for
Speaker 4: like a season, you know what I mean, Like the
Speaker 4: kind of set pieces that they are positioning high drama
Speaker 4: is ahead and.
Speaker 1: That's pretty much everything that happens here. And I think
Speaker 1: that last episode particularly phenomenal. Yes, so good, so much there,
Speaker 1: and like, you know, I hate to keep saying that, Jeff,
Speaker 1: because I know it's annoying, but like like berserk is
Speaker 1: like just one of those things where like it just
Speaker 1: gets better the more you know, and on hindsight, like
Speaker 1: this is such an important part, and it's like there's
Speaker 1: so much here you can kind of read into and
Speaker 1: look at and be like fuck.
Speaker 2: Man, yeah, yeah, yeah, great, yeah yeah.
Speaker 4: It's a tremendous, tremendous due of shows right here, very
Speaker 4: good stuff, excellence. And with that we conclude this week's
Speaker 4: episode of Jeff Jeff Sorry Adventure. We will be back soon,
Speaker 4: I am sure, and from there we will be continuing
Speaker 4: on this berserk ride all the way to the end
Speaker 4: of the manga. What no, you mean the anime? I
Speaker 4: mean the nineteen ninety seven anime. Yeah, I was told
Speaker 4: it's the other the any other ways impossible. So just
Speaker 4: with the sheer amount of years we would need to
Speaker 4: devote to this, right, yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I think at the at the cadence
Speaker 1: of our podcast, we would be going.
Speaker 2: Most of until retirement into the into.
Speaker 1: The twenty forties, which hey, I'm not against yeah against
Speaker 1: those seem like years we'll all get to well spent,
Speaker 1: all right, okay, Lucy James Games. Where can the people
Speaker 1: find you?
