1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:03,600
Speaker 1: What up? Everyone, Welcome back to the anime version. Today

2
00:00:03,640 --> 00:00:07,679
we are talking about Sakamoto Days. You got me your

3
00:00:07,719 --> 00:00:11,679
co host goes in from anime uproar, and of course Briggs,

4
00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:12,720
what a Briggs?

5
00:00:13,599 --> 00:00:16,800
Speaker 2: What a boys? Good to be back, excited to talk

6
00:00:16,839 --> 00:00:18,600
about socka Moto Days. What's up? Goes in?

7
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:22,559
Speaker 1: Nothing much, Bro, I gotta say this was cool. This

8
00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:26,800
was a cool mix of comedy and action. Kind of

9
00:00:26,879 --> 00:00:33,399
gives me, uh the spy family vibes. Obviously, it's a

10
00:00:33,399 --> 00:00:37,280
different kind of family, different kind of family dynamic, but

11
00:00:37,399 --> 00:00:42,359
you have that interesting blend of actually comedic and actually

12
00:00:42,759 --> 00:00:46,200
interesting because I feel like sometimes it goes hard on

13
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:50,079
the comedic side, or it goes hard on the action side,

14
00:00:50,759 --> 00:00:53,240
but these guys can pull both off at the same time,

15
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:55,759
which is something I really liked about the show.

16
00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:58,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, I love it. I love it. It's one of

17
00:00:58,359 --> 00:01:00,719
the few anime this season that I'm still watching, Like

18
00:01:00,759 --> 00:01:04,959
I'm basically watching Solo Leveling Doctor Stone and Soccamoto Days.

19
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:06,519
Soccermoto Day is the only like.

20
00:01:06,599 --> 00:01:09,640
Speaker 1: Don Don over Doctor Stone any day of the week.

21
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:13,239
Speaker 2: Bro, Well, Don, the Don's not airing this season, fair enough,

22
00:01:14,599 --> 00:01:18,159
I would agree with you. Yeah, but yeah, the three

23
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:20,120
Ademy that I'm watching from like this current season that

24
00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:23,359
are ongoing are the three I just mentioned, and Soccomoto

25
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:25,280
Days is the only new one that's like not a sequel.

26
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:27,400
Speaker 1: See, I thought I had a leg up on Briggs

27
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:29,799
for a second. I was watching something he wasn't. But

28
00:01:29,799 --> 00:01:31,519
but no, it's not even airing right now.

29
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 2: I mean we we we we just did an episode

30
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:34,719
on it. We caught up.

31
00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:37,439
Speaker 1: Well yeah, I know, but more episodes have happened since then,

32
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:37,920
for sure.

33
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:39,519
Speaker 2: Oh so then it is airing.

34
00:01:40,159 --> 00:01:42,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, because there's definitely more coming out than

35
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:46,840
we've we've watched. Yeah, Okay, I don't know if that's true.

36
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,560
One hundred percent, bro one hundred.

37
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,319
Speaker 2: The last time you watched an episode like like last week?

38
00:01:52,519 --> 00:01:55,799
Speaker 1: Like last week they went to the haunted house of

39
00:01:55,879 --> 00:02:00,040
the guy of her childhood friend.

40
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:05,799
Speaker 2: Chat look it up, chat broke. Okay, I guess they

41
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:07,719
went I'm hiatus for a bit and they came back,

42
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,639
So I'm wrong. I guess it is Aaron Well.

43
00:02:10,719 --> 00:02:15,039
Speaker 1: I again, I don't know when the hiatus sort of

44
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:18,680
happened within the when I'm watching, but I know that

45
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:20,919
I'm watching stuff we haven't talked about.

46
00:02:21,039 --> 00:02:23,520
Speaker 2: I know, that for sure, like you've got in past

47
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:27,000
episode like ten or eleven, like we're on to the

48
00:02:27,039 --> 00:02:30,400
second half of the cores. I guess, But anyway, let's

49
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,879
talk about talk about today. We'll look that up after.

50
00:02:33,439 --> 00:02:35,039
Speaker 1: I definitely got lost in that conversation.

51
00:02:35,439 --> 00:02:40,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, the series starts up. It's called the first episode

52
00:02:40,159 --> 00:02:43,680
called The Legendary hit Man, and we get introduced to Soakamoto.

53
00:02:44,159 --> 00:02:46,280
But it's funny, like it starts off all bad ass,

54
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,639
like he's like the legendary hit man. Everyone knows him

55
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:53,319
within the industry. He'd never failed an assassination. And then

56
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,960
it fast forward to him meeting his current wife, starting

57
00:02:56,960 --> 00:03:00,240
a family, getting fat, and he's just like enjoyed his

58
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,479
retired life. But then someone puts a bounty on his

59
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:06,960
head for a ridiculous amount. So now that he's living

60
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:09,360
the retired life with his family and he's trying to

61
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:11,680
be chill and put into the past, he has people

62
00:03:11,759 --> 00:03:15,080
every episode coming to assassinate him. And I guess that's

63
00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,719
the comedy of it, right, Like it's hilarious that he's

64
00:03:17,719 --> 00:03:19,800
like got this fat dude and he's taking them out

65
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,280
in interesting ways. He's not killing people. There's all these

66
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,520
funny moments, but then he has to be serious and

67
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,840
protect his family and actually like stop these guys from

68
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:31,120
killing him. So then you have these badass moments at

69
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,240
the same time. I really really recommend it.

70
00:03:33,319 --> 00:03:36,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's interesting how sometimes he does go back to

71
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:40,120
his old self, like burns enough calories to go back

72
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:43,080
to his old self, and sometimes he doesn't. But either

73
00:03:43,159 --> 00:03:46,319
way he's effect of whether he ends up returning to

74
00:03:46,319 --> 00:03:48,520
his old version of himself or if he stays the

75
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:51,360
fat version of himself, he's effective. And there's also the

76
00:03:51,479 --> 00:03:53,960
joke of why does he lose his mustache when he

77
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:57,960
loses all that weight for some reason? Yeah, the mustache

78
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:01,199
comes and goes depending on his uh wait at the moment.

79
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:04,159
Speaker 2: You know it's weird. I have a bit of a

80
00:04:04,199 --> 00:04:08,280
bad take here. In the first episode, what ends up

81
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,800
happening is he gets attacked by like the fuck I

82
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:13,639
don't know his name, the guy with clairvoyance like it

83
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:14,840
read people's minds.

84
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, he took Shin. I brought it up here.

85
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:22,839
Speaker 2: So Shin comes to a trial assassinate him, and you

86
00:04:22,879 --> 00:04:25,879
have this funny battle where like he's like blocking something

87
00:04:25,879 --> 00:04:29,120
with a lollipop he's using like a candy and like

88
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:29,519
a lot.

89
00:04:29,399 --> 00:04:32,560
Speaker 1: Of gums or something, yeah, like pistol.

90
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,000
Speaker 2: I love the strategy of it, where like he was

91
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:38,839
like using he was like throwing certain like food items

92
00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:41,839
in his communion stores like decoys. Honestly like a really

93
00:04:41,879 --> 00:04:46,319
funny but bad ass executed fight. I really enjoyed that exactly.

94
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:50,720
Then I do have an issue at one point where

95
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,720
it almost got too ridiculous, where I find it really

96
00:04:54,759 --> 00:04:57,120
funny and bad ass when there's like this character that

97
00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:00,240
could overpower people and it's like over the top. But

98
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:02,680
then at a certain point it becomes like it loses

99
00:05:02,759 --> 00:05:07,279
its immersiveness through comedy. And later in that episode, he

100
00:05:07,399 --> 00:05:10,839
basically went to take down like this this assassination organization

101
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:14,720
that hired Chin to protect him, and then he ended

102
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,759
up catching a bullet with like chopsticks. It's like I

103
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:19,959
enjoyed all the bad ass for you, like throwing the

104
00:05:19,959 --> 00:05:23,639
lollipop and using the candy and these little things here

105
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:28,279
and there out smarting people, being faster and stronger than everybody.

106
00:05:28,519 --> 00:05:30,639
But then like the second, like the catching the bullet

107
00:05:30,639 --> 00:05:32,360
with the chopsticks came in, I feel like it lost

108
00:05:32,399 --> 00:05:34,879
me a little bit. I was like not as excited to.

109
00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:37,920
Speaker 1: Continue interesting I was very open minded in the sense

110
00:05:37,959 --> 00:05:42,000
of like it's a comedy and I'm just taken as

111
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:45,000
it goes. But you're right that they almost seem to

112
00:05:45,079 --> 00:05:50,879
backtrack that a bit because, uh, later on, it seems

113
00:05:50,879 --> 00:05:55,959
like the fights get more closer, more intense sometimes, and

114
00:05:56,639 --> 00:05:59,639
you don't see moments like the chopstick moments. Right, Yeah,

115
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,800
the author thought thought to run it back and and

116
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:06,759
kind of avoid some of those over the top scenarios.

117
00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:10,720
Although to be fair, there there's also those moments with

118
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:14,920
the heyesu ke or maushroomo where he like shoots and

119
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,600
ricochets off of things, like that's pretty crazy, but I

120
00:06:17,639 --> 00:06:18,720
guess not impossible.

121
00:06:19,319 --> 00:06:22,360
Speaker 2: What I was gonna say is like, it's weird how

122
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:26,079
our brains work. They're doing these things that are all impossible,

123
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:30,959
but because it's like a little bit more grounded, like

124
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:33,680
I know it's impossible and it can't be done, but

125
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,920
it's like not so over the top that my brain

126
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:40,079
accepts it. Right, It's like, oh, that's fucking badass. The

127
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,839
second something like catching a bullet with chopsticks that you

128
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:46,519
know is physically impossible happens like can't be done no

129
00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:48,879
matter what. That's where it starts to lose you, which

130
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,120
is just weird because there are things where like they're

131
00:06:51,199 --> 00:06:54,759
ricocheting bullets, they're jumping off of moving fucking roller coasters,

132
00:06:54,959 --> 00:06:58,000
they're doing all these fucking things. This guy has clairvoyance,

133
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,480
like they're doing all these things that impossible. But then

134
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,639
the one that takes one step further that my brain's

135
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,360
really able to acknowledge can't be done. That's where it

136
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:08,600
loses me. Just weird.

137
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:13,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, So there was a term I learned in university

138
00:07:13,439 --> 00:07:17,720
which is die Jesus, and it's pretty much the world

139
00:07:17,879 --> 00:07:22,639
created by a movie or or work of fiction. And yeah,

140
00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:26,480
it's it's almost like, even though it's not real, it

141
00:07:26,639 --> 00:07:30,399
creates this kind of world with this kind of unwritten rules,

142
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:33,600
and then when you feel like it's straight away from

143
00:07:33,639 --> 00:07:37,480
its own world, then it can upset you. Right, But

144
00:07:37,519 --> 00:07:39,279
at least it was in the beginning though.

145
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,720
Speaker 2: And then everything and then so I continued watching and

146
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,920
kind of every everything since that moment, I've been fine with,

147
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:47,680
yeah interesting.

148
00:07:47,399 --> 00:07:49,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, I because you've got to keep in mind, this

149
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:53,560
was like in the beginning. So for me, when I

150
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:57,000
watch the first episode, I have no expectations in terms

151
00:07:57,079 --> 00:07:59,959
of what the world and the rules of the world

152
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,360
will be, and so for me, I just accept it

153
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,120
in the beginning, and then now later, let's say we

154
00:08:06,199 --> 00:08:08,360
had none of that, and then later he did the

155
00:08:08,439 --> 00:08:12,519
chopsticks with the bullet thing in like episode twelve, then

156
00:08:12,519 --> 00:08:15,160
I'd be like, what the fuck? But yeah, it didn't

157
00:08:15,199 --> 00:08:17,120
bother me at all because of the whole thing. And

158
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,800
then it reminded me kind of a Cobra Kai recently

159
00:08:19,839 --> 00:08:24,079
because I finished watching it and then they used the chops.

160
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:26,240
Try to use the chopsticks to catch the fly, right,

161
00:08:27,399 --> 00:08:30,720
So yeah, that was that kind of reminded me of that,

162
00:08:30,759 --> 00:08:32,159
except obviously a bullet's harder.

163
00:08:32,799 --> 00:08:36,399
Speaker 2: Exactly. I feel like chopsticks to catch a fly, well,

164
00:08:37,519 --> 00:08:41,879
really really really really hard, probably impossible. It's like, technically

165
00:08:41,919 --> 00:08:43,639
it could probably be done.

166
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,440
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, in theory you can get lucky or something.

167
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 2: In theory, it's like catching a blade with your hands,

168
00:08:49,159 --> 00:08:51,600
Like it's fucking impossible. But like, if you could catch

169
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:54,000
a blade that's moving slowly with your hands, what about

170
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,399
the anime character that's so over the top, that's so

171
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:58,960
much faster than us, so much like smarter than us,

172
00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:02,080
so much longer than us, Maybe he could actually do

173
00:09:02,159 --> 00:09:04,559
it and it feels possible, even though it's something that

174
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:09,039
we can't do. That feels impossible. But then when catching

175
00:09:09,039 --> 00:09:11,440
a ball with chop sticks doesn't involve his body, really,

176
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:14,679
it's like there's no way chopsticks wouldn't break unless they

177
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:17,399
were reinforced by metal, and even if they were, it's

178
00:09:17,399 --> 00:09:22,120
like it still feels it just doesn't feel it loses

179
00:09:22,159 --> 00:09:24,759
my inversion in the world for whatever reason. But that's

180
00:09:24,799 --> 00:09:27,000
such so beside the point. I don't want to stay

181
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:27,440
on that for either.

182
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:29,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, use everything.

183
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:32,000
Speaker 2: But that I enjoyed prior and afterwards, Like I love

184
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:35,120
the characters, I love the world, I love the moments.

185
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:37,879
Speaker 1: I yeah. So one of the interesting things is obviously

186
00:09:37,879 --> 00:09:41,080
so you have he was an assassin, and then you

187
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:44,120
had the whole him wanting to leave the life, and

188
00:09:44,159 --> 00:09:46,519
you don't just leave the life, right, And we've seen

189
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:49,360
that in different kind of movies. I don't know how

190
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:52,919
realistic this stuff is. I've never part taken in the

191
00:09:53,159 --> 00:09:56,080
assassin world, and I don't know it's rules, but you

192
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:58,120
have that John Wick stuff where you can't just like

193
00:09:58,879 --> 00:10:02,039
you know, sous without someone wanting to come after you.

194
00:10:02,799 --> 00:10:04,840
And even if it's just not even the number if

195
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:06,279
it's just to be able to say you killed the

196
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:10,720
legend or something. You know, some people like that, but here, yeah,

197
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:16,919
that's gonna create constant sort of action and something going

198
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:19,720
on within the world because they're always gonna be after him.

199
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,080
But I just love the fact that he opens up

200
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:26,679
a convenience store. You know, it's just such a such

201
00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:32,399
a chill environment compared to his old life, and I

202
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:35,960
think that's the point. But yeah, it's it's pretty pretty

203
00:10:36,039 --> 00:10:40,159
amazing to see the dad transformation while he also has

204
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:45,320
all those rock solid skills. Still, I've honestly been kind

205
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:50,480
of surprised with how they make the more recent battles

206
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:56,559
feel challenging. Yes, because it's not just because they do

207
00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:01,000
kind of harp on the fact that he is overweight

208
00:11:01,039 --> 00:11:04,240
and out of shape, and that does seem to an

209
00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:09,039
extent because they even start training right because he's concerned

210
00:11:09,039 --> 00:11:12,320
about the fact that, you know, these guys are dangerous

211
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:16,639
in there after him. So yeah, I feel like that

212
00:11:16,799 --> 00:11:19,480
is interesting to me. I like that. I know some people,

213
00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,159
you know, would want pure comedy in some cases and

214
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:25,440
it's okay, and you know, just always beats the opponent easily.

215
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,519
But I like the fact that we're getting more challenging

216
00:11:28,519 --> 00:11:30,960
circumstances and you got to get creative. Right, if he

217
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:35,480
didn't have Shin in the last fight with that mad

218
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:40,480
scientist guy, he would have he would have lost. Like

219
00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:43,840
he needed Shin there to use that tactic where Shin

220
00:11:44,039 --> 00:11:46,879
was dodging and he could punch the guy. He needed

221
00:11:46,879 --> 00:11:49,879
that tactic to win. So it goes to show how

222
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:54,279
he's not that overpowered, even though he's he's obviously powerful, he's.

223
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:56,399
Speaker 2: Super overpowered, but like he's not as strong as his

224
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,720
former self. And in the Assassination world there's a lot

225
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,120
of tricks and tricks that are going on as well.

226
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, you gotta be. He has to use strategy

227
00:12:05,159 --> 00:12:09,039
to to beat some guys. He can't just overpower everyone

228
00:12:09,519 --> 00:12:10,440
through brute force.

229
00:12:11,759 --> 00:12:15,039
Speaker 2: But speaking of brute force, in the second episode, they're

230
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:19,279
like out on an errand Socomoto and Shin encounter Lou

231
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:24,879
Shao Teng. I believe I'm I thinking her name is Lou.

232
00:12:24,759 --> 00:12:29,759
Speaker 1: Right, yes, Lou Shou Tang, the pink haired girl or yes.

233
00:12:29,799 --> 00:12:31,320
Speaker 2: Okay, I had it in front of me. I just

234
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:33,440
wanted to make sure I wasn't talking about the wrong character.

235
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:35,360
It's a girl who like gets drunk and then has

236
00:12:35,399 --> 00:12:36,159
that fighting style.

237
00:12:36,519 --> 00:12:39,879
Speaker 1: Drunken fist, Yeah, drunken fist. Always appreciate saying that. From

238
00:12:39,879 --> 00:12:42,679
the rock Lee days by go ahead, and she's.

239
00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:44,919
Speaker 2: The daughter of like a mafia boss who's on the run.

240
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,919
I think her her father had passed away and now

241
00:12:48,919 --> 00:12:50,799
people are trying to take her out and take her

242
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:54,840
assets essentially something along those lines. And then speaking of

243
00:12:54,879 --> 00:12:58,440
brute force, I'm pretty sure like she was fighting them

244
00:12:58,879 --> 00:13:02,600
and then Socomoto like bun got like knocked over, and

245
00:13:02,639 --> 00:13:05,360
then he went on to protect her and fight these

246
00:13:05,399 --> 00:13:08,440
assassins and he just overpowers them, like he just fully

247
00:13:08,919 --> 00:13:12,759
dodges everything, hits them with a fucking frying pan and

248
00:13:12,759 --> 00:13:14,240
and a stove. It's hilarious.

249
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you're saying when they run into each other

250
00:13:17,639 --> 00:13:22,600
in the street, right, Yeah, exactly, No, And it's interesting

251
00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:26,960
watching their family grow sort of thing. You have the

252
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,519
Shin at first, and then you have Lou And we

253
00:13:29,639 --> 00:13:32,000
kind of like rushed through Shn's part because I do

254
00:13:32,039 --> 00:13:34,559
really like Schn's part that he respected it, he worked

255
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:38,639
with him before, and he kind of feels like he

256
00:13:38,759 --> 00:13:42,000
lost his way, but then later he sees he's just

257
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:45,639
as bit of a monster and someone to be respected

258
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,159
as he always was, and he just has different priorities now,

259
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,919
and yeah, I thought, I think it's becoming more and

260
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:57,159
more despite the interesting setup about the characters, and that

261
00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:00,039
really hit home with me when they were focusing on

262
00:14:00,039 --> 00:14:05,960
on Shin's backstory and how you know, people were avoiding

263
00:14:06,039 --> 00:14:07,919
him because he could read minds, and that was touched

264
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,840
upon by Lou earlier on when she said something insensitive

265
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:14,000
about you know, him creeping her out sort of thing,

266
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:18,399
and then she got upset when the villains were saying it.

267
00:14:18,919 --> 00:14:21,720
So yeah, it's it's interesting, like I really start to

268
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:25,200
care about Shin and he has that kind of almost

269
00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:28,960
sun vibe or at least a little brother compared to Sakamoto,

270
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:33,480
And yeah, I like seeing how he was ready to

271
00:14:33,879 --> 00:14:36,879
you know, take his own life sort of thing to

272
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:40,720
make up for the fact that he tried to assassinate

273
00:14:40,759 --> 00:14:43,240
his friend even though that's his job. But you know,

274
00:14:43,279 --> 00:14:46,480
he realizes he did the wrong thing there and then

275
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,720
Sakamoto takes him under his wings. So yeah, I just

276
00:14:49,799 --> 00:14:54,600
I love the dynamics between the characters and I didn't

277
00:14:54,639 --> 00:14:56,799
know that's what would be the interesting part for me,

278
00:14:56,919 --> 00:14:59,159
but that's really what the story is about for me

279
00:14:59,200 --> 00:14:59,840
at this point.

280
00:15:00,759 --> 00:15:02,320
Speaker 2: And I love the fact that you pointed out that

281
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:06,519
Shin's kind of like his younger brother slash son dynamic. Yeah,

282
00:15:06,559 --> 00:15:09,320
and then the next person like they just slowly start

283
00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:11,639
becoming a bigger and bigger family, and I love it.

284
00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:14,720
Like we mentioned with Lou the pink haired girl, she

285
00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:18,440
comes in, he protects her, he saves her from the assassins,

286
00:15:18,759 --> 00:15:21,200
and then she kind of joins the family and she

287
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:23,840
even starts like having like interactions with her with with

288
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:27,480
Sakamoto's kid and wife. It's like it just starts becoming

289
00:15:27,519 --> 00:15:30,320
so wholesome and nice, and then it continues even to

290
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:32,840
like the theme park, if you want to go over

291
00:15:32,879 --> 00:15:33,840
the theme park a little bit.

292
00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:39,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, So the theme park was one of the

293
00:15:39,519 --> 00:15:42,519
highlights for me. When they eventually got to the fight,

294
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:49,039
right and the guy was Sakamoto was in his mind

295
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:54,919
kind of relaying what moves to make for Shin so

296
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:59,000
that even though he was blind because of the poison,

297
00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:02,639
he could still in the costume hit perfectly the opponent.

298
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:05,600
I thought that was that was one of the standout

299
00:16:05,639 --> 00:16:09,039
moments for me. But what else and obviously the fact

300
00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:11,960
that they're the whole time they're keeping it all from

301
00:16:12,039 --> 00:16:15,120
the wife, right, and making sure that Aoi because she

302
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:18,000
definitely doesn't want any trace of that world around her,

303
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:21,200
or she threatened to divorce Sakamoto, which is like Sakamoto

304
00:16:21,279 --> 00:16:26,159
is kryptonite. So yeah, just the whole time them working

305
00:16:26,159 --> 00:16:30,039
together to also beat the assassin, but also to make

306
00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:34,000
sure that aUI is not like suspicious of what's going on.

307
00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:37,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. So it's like they finally had a day

308
00:16:37,799 --> 00:16:40,360
off together as a family. He was taking his family

309
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,559
to a theme park and of course, to fucking assassins

310
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:45,320
show up to try to take him out, and he

311
00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:47,159
wants them to have a good time. He doesn't want

312
00:16:47,159 --> 00:16:49,480
his wife to see that, like the old world is

313
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:51,759
so chasing after him, trying to kill him, even though

314
00:16:52,159 --> 00:16:55,000
afterwards she's like, this isn't your fault, Like you are

315
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:57,840
not getting back into the world. The world that you

316
00:16:57,960 --> 00:16:59,799
left behind is coming to take you out for your

317
00:16:59,799 --> 00:17:04,240
bad county. But then there's some absolute highlight moments where

318
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:08,559
an assassin follows them onto a roller coaster, right, and

319
00:17:08,599 --> 00:17:11,799
on a roller coaster, Sakamotos all strapped in so he

320
00:17:11,839 --> 00:17:14,759
can't really defend himself. He blocks the bullet with his

321
00:17:14,839 --> 00:17:18,240
glasses that are like bullet proof glasses, so he was

322
00:17:18,279 --> 00:17:21,720
able to judge the trajectory of the bullet. Absolute badass moment.

323
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,480
Then Shin pulls out a gun shoots the roller coaster

324
00:17:25,559 --> 00:17:28,279
so he could detach himself. And now they're having a

325
00:17:28,319 --> 00:17:30,799
fight on the roller coaster. They're going through a three

326
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:34,119
sixty loop. He jumps off the time it lands on

327
00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:37,440
the other side, like takes the guy out, Like even

328
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:40,359
though that's impossible. Like I said before, it just badass,

329
00:17:40,559 --> 00:17:44,839
and within this world of assassins and abilities, feels plausible

330
00:17:45,079 --> 00:17:48,680
and it is super super cool. And then, like you

331
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:52,319
pointed out later on, we have the moment where Shin

332
00:17:52,599 --> 00:17:56,400
in the bunny suit is fighting against the sky and

333
00:17:56,880 --> 00:18:00,480
Shin can't see right because he got poisoned, I think exactly.

334
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,039
And then you have that moment where he's able to

335
00:18:03,039 --> 00:18:07,759
writ read soccer motive's mind, and I love it because

336
00:18:07,759 --> 00:18:09,720
it feels like a video game where he's like left right,

337
00:18:09,759 --> 00:18:12,359
punch upper, cut back, close the gap, and it think

338
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,640
all happening in good animation and choreography, which is another

339
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:17,599
thing I want to mention, where like the art style

340
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:21,160
at times and sometimes the talking scenes aren't the best looking,

341
00:18:21,759 --> 00:18:24,720
but when it actually goes down, the choreography of the

342
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:26,920
fights in the animation rise to the occasion.

343
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:29,839
Speaker 1: Yeah. And I saw that moment out of context first

344
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:33,920
because this is a popular show, right, and I was like, oh,

345
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:36,240
that's interesting. I assumed the first time I saw it,

346
00:18:36,279 --> 00:18:39,119
before we even watched the show, I assumed he was

347
00:18:39,279 --> 00:18:44,559
just in his mind saying what's happening. But when you

348
00:18:44,599 --> 00:18:46,640
actually watched the show and you're like, okay, he's telling

349
00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:50,119
him what to do. But that's just something that Yeah,

350
00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:52,240
even before I watched this, I was exposed to that

351
00:18:52,279 --> 00:18:55,400
moment because people were hyped about it and probably shared

352
00:18:55,400 --> 00:19:00,559
it a lot on social media and stuff exactly. And

353
00:19:00,599 --> 00:19:02,839
then we also get those oh my god, this was

354
00:19:02,839 --> 00:19:06,480
so funny. Bro those the couple which I don't even

355
00:19:06,519 --> 00:19:09,720
know if they're officially a couple, but you know, the

356
00:19:09,839 --> 00:19:13,880
dude that used to know Sakamoto hard Boiled Hard Boiled,

357
00:19:14,079 --> 00:19:17,200
and his his female partner, Like I don't know the

358
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:22,079
exact nature of their relationship, but she is into him.

359
00:19:22,279 --> 00:19:27,039
But yeah, it was It's so funny, like his backstory

360
00:19:27,599 --> 00:19:31,400
where dude, it was so fun where he's like following him,

361
00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:33,519
he's working out. There seems to be this like unspoken

362
00:19:33,599 --> 00:19:37,000
bond between them, and they're spending every day together and

363
00:19:37,039 --> 00:19:39,839
then someone asks him, like, yo, who is that. He's like,

364
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:50,880
I don't know, bro. That was the funniest moment, dude.

365
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:52,559
That was so good.

366
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:54,440
Speaker 2: I felt like I want you to like me or anything.

367
00:19:54,920 --> 00:20:00,039
Speaker 1: Oh my god. It was just so well done. The

368
00:20:00,079 --> 00:20:02,799
expectations and he was like perfect class in comedy where

369
00:20:03,279 --> 00:20:07,000
where he he's building up this whole relationship and then

370
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:07,839
the guy doesn't even know.

371
00:20:09,519 --> 00:20:13,839
Speaker 2: Yeah. Oh like then during the badass fight between him,

372
00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:19,759
Boyle is literally kicking's ass. Yeah, and slowly Soakamoto starts

373
00:20:19,759 --> 00:20:23,519
having the flashbacks where Boyle mentions like his abilities that

374
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:27,359
like the bubblegum or like the bouncy ball thing that bounces,

375
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,559
or like his punch that's like powered by like rockets

376
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:32,759
or whatever or explosions.

377
00:20:33,279 --> 00:20:36,160
Speaker 1: He gives like it's so lame or what and.

378
00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:38,880
Speaker 2: He's like, yeah, that's lame, that's lame. But he remembers

379
00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,599
those interactions after like he gets the ship knocked out

380
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:41,920
of him.

381
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,480
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, so he ended up they ended up coming

382
00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:47,440
to some kind of understanding and respect for each other,

383
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:50,519
which is which is nice to see for Hard Boiled,

384
00:20:50,559 --> 00:20:54,519
because you really start to uh root for the guy

385
00:20:54,519 --> 00:20:57,000
because he's such an underdog and he wants you. He

386
00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:59,599
wants that Sakamoto respect so.

387
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:03,000
Speaker 2: Much his villain origin story or like the reason why

388
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,720
he's probably so powerful these days is probably because of

389
00:21:05,759 --> 00:21:09,400
Sakamoto just rejecting him and not like acknowledging his existence.

390
00:21:10,319 --> 00:21:13,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, he he That was one of my favorite interactions.

391
00:21:13,799 --> 00:21:17,880
And yeah, I absolutely love that. And yeah, like you said,

392
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:19,960
that was that was I think the instance where he

393
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:23,079
actually had to get thin again to beat him, right, Yes,

394
00:21:23,319 --> 00:21:24,480
exactly so.

395
00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:27,759
Speaker 2: And I think at the same time as Boyle fighting Zakamoto,

396
00:21:28,079 --> 00:21:31,720
we had the woman that you mentioned who probably likes boil.

397
00:21:31,799 --> 00:21:35,559
It seems like, yeah, was fighting against Lou and Shin.

398
00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:40,160
Speaker 1: Exactly, and uh then we saw the drunken fist while

399
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:41,759
while Shin was tied.

400
00:21:41,599 --> 00:21:42,599
Speaker 2: Up right.

401
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:48,240
Speaker 1: Yep, yeah, and then she beat him. So Linn Lou

402
00:21:49,079 --> 00:21:52,279
Lou won, right, so there was was there any any

403
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:56,160
crazy reason or did she just outfight her and and

404
00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:57,519
the other woman was impressed?

405
00:21:58,480 --> 00:21:59,359
Speaker 2: I can't really remember.

406
00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:02,799
Speaker 1: I feel like, yeah, again, this was because we were

407
00:22:02,839 --> 00:22:05,000
initially gonna do this last week, guys, So I watched

408
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:08,799
this episode like a little further back, but yeah, I

409
00:22:08,839 --> 00:22:11,759
feel like she just outclassed her, which shows how good

410
00:22:11,799 --> 00:22:12,640
our team is.

411
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:17,000
Speaker 2: Mm hmm. Yeah. I can't remember perfectly either, just because

412
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:19,759
I've been watching this weekly as it goes. Solo Leveling

413
00:22:19,839 --> 00:22:22,240
and Doctor Stone and Soccomotive just been watching weekly.

414
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:25,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, so Leveling I've been watching them too. Yeah, I'm

415
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:28,640
pretty much watching everything except the Doctor Stone stuff.

416
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:34,759
Speaker 2: Sure, source of Strength. Okay, the next episode, up with five,

417
00:22:34,839 --> 00:22:35,960
Socomotive goes.

418
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:38,359
Speaker 1: Oh, good, you're using that strategy.

419
00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:40,799
Speaker 2: Good job, Yes, I am iled. We're on up with six.

420
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:43,319
This is where the sniper comes in. They're like at

421
00:22:43,319 --> 00:22:48,079
this like mall thing, like a paintball event, and this

422
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,240
sniper comes in to try to take out Soccermoto earlier

423
00:22:51,279 --> 00:22:53,880
in the episode, and they're just like, yeah, Socomotive's not here.

424
00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:56,240
And then I was like, shit, I came all this

425
00:22:56,319 --> 00:22:59,160
way to Soccer Mootal's convenience store and Soccermotives not Here's like, yeah,

426
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:01,920
we're like a franchise, tons of them. And he's just

427
00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:06,519
like so stupid, like stupid and dumb and simple minded,

428
00:23:06,559 --> 00:23:08,799
but he's like also a really really good guy that

429
00:23:08,839 --> 00:23:11,599
you come to like, yeah, and it's just funny that,

430
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:14,359
like he put all his stats into sniping, like he's

431
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:17,039
actually a beast assassin when it comes to sniping, but

432
00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:18,440
he's just good at nothing else.

433
00:23:18,559 --> 00:23:22,519
Speaker 1: And again that emphasizes the it's all about the team,

434
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:26,119
because outside of a team, if he's on his own,

435
00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:32,759
the dude can't accomplish anything. Really, he can't even identify that. Yes,

436
00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:35,279
the address where he was expecting to see Sakamoto, he

437
00:23:35,319 --> 00:23:39,759
sees a Sakamoto and and he can be convinced it's

438
00:23:39,799 --> 00:23:42,960
not where he should be. He can't do anything on

439
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:45,880
his own. But in this group working with the others,

440
00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:49,039
as we saw in the latest episode where he saved Shin,

441
00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:54,000
it works perfectly. And yeah, I absolutely love the character.

442
00:23:54,319 --> 00:23:57,759
Love the bird his bird dynamic as well with his

443
00:23:58,079 --> 00:24:00,559
bird friend.

444
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:01,799
Speaker 2: Yes, that's right.

445
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:05,079
Speaker 1: I want to know the name, but it's like a

446
00:24:05,079 --> 00:24:08,640
piece something but I can't recall. It's not telling me here.

447
00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:13,480
Speaker 2: I can't remember. I do like the fact that afterwards,

448
00:24:13,519 --> 00:24:16,200
like you mentioned that the whole family dynamic after this fight.

449
00:24:16,319 --> 00:24:19,680
First of all, Mashimo or I think his name is

450
00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:23,440
put up a good fight and he had Takamoto on

451
00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:26,400
the edge, like he was making these shots that Soccermoto

452
00:24:26,519 --> 00:24:30,759
never expected, like the rebound shots or the shots were

453
00:24:30,759 --> 00:24:33,720
like he's mid air and like he's not grounded. He's

454
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:37,720
making these snipes and Soccermoo was barely dodging them. And

455
00:24:37,759 --> 00:24:41,200
then in the end he's just like Mashimo's all obviously

456
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:43,799
like super depressed with his backstory and how he was

457
00:24:43,799 --> 00:24:46,599
like kind of rejected from all these the Assassin organization,

458
00:24:47,039 --> 00:24:49,440
and he was just like, wow, you're really strong, and

459
00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:51,559
he got Soakamoto's respect. I love that.

460
00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:55,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know me too. I really enjoyed that aspect

461
00:24:55,279 --> 00:24:57,480
to it. And keep in mind, like it was like

462
00:24:57,599 --> 00:25:03,000
Shin and Sakamoto versus this guy and his skills, and yeah,

463
00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:05,880
obviously they had they had also the fact that they

464
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:08,880
were trying to hide what's actually going on here. But

465
00:25:09,279 --> 00:25:12,319
still it was super impressive and and I think like

466
00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:17,160
this Assassin not Assassin team that they've built up is

467
00:25:17,519 --> 00:25:19,079
pretty op. That's for sure.

468
00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:23,000
Speaker 2: I agree, And there's just like a good character dynamic.

469
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:24,400
I really really like it.

470
00:25:25,039 --> 00:25:27,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, that's the thing that's where this show

471
00:25:27,079 --> 00:25:32,599
shines honestly for me, because okay, how often how long

472
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:37,680
can you have you know, op fights be interesting probably

473
00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:41,119
a long time, honestly, But I do think that that

474
00:25:41,319 --> 00:25:43,960
here we're just more so care about it and are

475
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:48,240
invested because the characters are so great. Like I really

476
00:25:49,519 --> 00:25:52,440
I really feel for Shin and you know what he

477
00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:55,599
had to go through and his Yeah, he fucked up

478
00:25:55,599 --> 00:25:58,160
in the beginning where he actually tried to kill Sakamoto

479
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:00,160
even though he respected him so much, and he thought

480
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,440
if he doesn't do it, someone else will. But then

481
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:07,160
he realized his mistake, and you know, just he remains

482
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:10,960
loyal after that and apologizes for what he did, and

483
00:26:11,039 --> 00:26:14,640
now he would, you know, die for Sakamoto and his family.

484
00:26:15,039 --> 00:26:18,759
So it's just, yeah, that Shin's my standout for sure.

485
00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:22,799
But yeah, I look forward to seeing more about Lou.

486
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:25,640
So far it's been a lot of comedic stuff, but

487
00:26:25,759 --> 00:26:28,960
I look forward to seeing what else we learn about Lou.

488
00:26:29,599 --> 00:26:31,440
Speaker 2: And I hope that we get to see more from

489
00:26:31,599 --> 00:26:33,680
He's gay as well, because I really like he's gay.

490
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:37,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, they all have their kind of like tragic story

491
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:43,319
aspects to them, right, Sakamotos maybe wasn't explored as much yet.

492
00:26:43,519 --> 00:26:46,000
They're probably gonna be more to learn. But you know,

493
00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:49,200
Lou with the family, then he's gay, with never being

494
00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:53,880
accepted for anything else other than sniping, and then that

495
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:57,319
that's not enough, and then Shin obviously the weirdo who

496
00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:59,200
can read minds. So yeah, it's interesting.

497
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:04,279
Speaker 2: Yep. I agree. Also, so we're going on to episode seven.

498
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:06,920
It's called like Jurassic Bastard and this is where like

499
00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:13,079
that random group kidnaps but they thought it was Shin.

500
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:14,839
They were trying to kidnap Shi Shin.

501
00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:18,759
Speaker 1: I believe, right, Yeah, people are so stupid. It's like

502
00:27:18,839 --> 00:27:23,039
he's scale all. It's like, uh yeah, I'll ower again.

503
00:27:23,079 --> 00:27:26,960
It's it's crazy, but yeah, it's funny because they think

504
00:27:27,039 --> 00:27:31,440
like and it literally you know what happened. They changed

505
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:36,559
name time like the aprons and that's literally the reason

506
00:27:36,599 --> 00:27:38,759
that they kidnapped her because she was wearing his apron

507
00:27:38,759 --> 00:27:41,960
with his name tag on it. And yeah, it's just

508
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:46,240
so so crazy, but it led to obviously the chase

509
00:27:46,279 --> 00:27:49,119
scene and very cool moments.

510
00:27:49,599 --> 00:27:54,079
Speaker 2: M hmm. I agree. Unfortunately I didn't watch up with eight.

511
00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:58,920
Speaker 1: That's the latest even so eight eight I think is

512
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:00,519
the latest one, right, or is there more?

513
00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:04,480
Speaker 2: I think eight is the latest one. I only watched seven.

514
00:28:05,039 --> 00:28:08,119
Speaker 1: Okay, because yeah, so you you did at least see

515
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:10,359
the start of the fight with that guy that drugs

516
00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:13,279
himself and makes Shin speak backwards, right.

517
00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:14,200
Speaker 2: Yes, I did.

518
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, so they in the very beginning of the next

519
00:28:17,839 --> 00:28:20,480
episode that you didn't watch it, they resolved that fight.

520
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:24,079
And that's what I was talking about earlier on where

521
00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:30,079
where Sakamoto because he he kind of used this system

522
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:34,200
where it's like you can't punch, you hesitate when you

523
00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:37,599
go to punch your friend naturally, and he's like using

524
00:28:37,599 --> 00:28:43,079
that messing with their biologies and so and he makes

525
00:28:43,119 --> 00:28:46,279
it for Shin that he can punch Shin, but he

526
00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:49,279
can't punch the guy because the guy is like biologically

527
00:28:49,319 --> 00:28:51,119
hardwired to be his friend. It's some kind of like

528
00:28:51,359 --> 00:28:54,599
I don't know sign stuff. But so then Shin actually

529
00:28:54,640 --> 00:29:00,759
like goes in front between the guys and then suck

530
00:29:00,799 --> 00:29:03,519
them out to tell him how to dodge his attacks,

531
00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:06,440
and that allows him to like punch full and he

532
00:29:06,559 --> 00:29:11,519
hits the enemy behind them. But yeah, it was it

533
00:29:11,559 --> 00:29:15,400
was definitely again have to use strategy to win, but

534
00:29:15,519 --> 00:29:18,119
he didn't have to go to his thin self. It

535
00:29:18,279 --> 00:29:20,799
wasn't that much of us stretch. It was mostly the trickery,

536
00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:24,759
right because uh Shin was also speaking backwards, like you know,

537
00:29:24,759 --> 00:29:25,680
it was almost.

538
00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:27,880
Speaker 2: A strategic fight, it sounds like, and I'm looking forward

539
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:29,759
to watching it. When I went to watch it, it

540
00:29:29,799 --> 00:29:32,000
wasn't dubbed yet, so I put it off and that

541
00:29:32,079 --> 00:29:33,759
I forgot about it.

542
00:29:33,759 --> 00:29:36,519
Speaker 1: It's so funny, bro, And I feel like, are you

543
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:38,319
Are you a guy who defends subbed? There?

544
00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:41,799
Speaker 2: Now, I tend to prefer subbed, But once I start

545
00:29:41,839 --> 00:29:43,559
something in dubb, I'm locked in on dubb.

546
00:29:43,799 --> 00:29:49,079
Speaker 1: See you guys watch what they do, not what they say.

547
00:29:50,039 --> 00:29:53,480
Briggs By defense of but but he's waiting for the

548
00:29:53,559 --> 00:29:55,519
dub to come out. But again, what your mean?

549
00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're you're I feel like, once I hear the

550
00:29:57,720 --> 00:29:59,519
voices and dubbed, I want to watch it in dub.

551
00:29:59,559 --> 00:30:01,079
Once I hear the voice in the subs, I want

552
00:30:01,079 --> 00:30:03,400
to watch it and subbed. And I tend to stay

553
00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:07,039
on that trajectory unless there's just no more subbed episodes

554
00:30:07,039 --> 00:30:08,960
than I'll probably I mean, no more dubbed episodes than

555
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:11,680
I'll probably watch it and subbed. But for weekly like

556
00:30:11,759 --> 00:30:14,680
this is being simul dubbed, and it just wasn't there

557
00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:15,519
when I went to do it.

558
00:30:16,559 --> 00:30:19,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, fair enough, And and like I said, you start

559
00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:23,039
to like these characters. They start to feel like friends, family,

560
00:30:23,559 --> 00:30:26,079
And because of that, you know, you're used to their

561
00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:28,519
voices as well. It'd be weird if all of a

562
00:30:28,519 --> 00:30:31,599
sudden you hear strange voices you're not used to watching.

563
00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:35,000
Speaker 2: Also, like I tend to do most of my reactions

564
00:30:35,039 --> 00:30:37,200
on stream, Like I tend to watch Animal.

565
00:30:36,799 --> 00:30:38,519
Speaker 1: A lot, and people like it.

566
00:30:39,119 --> 00:30:42,480
Speaker 2: I'm guessing exactly, like when people are watching streams, sometimes

567
00:30:42,519 --> 00:30:45,480
they're cooking, sometimes they're like fucking at work, and they're

568
00:30:45,559 --> 00:30:48,400
it's easier to multitask when they're watching and dubbed. Even

569
00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:50,920
my clips tend to do better and dubbed. So this

570
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:52,799
is from a business standpoint, it makes sense for me

571
00:30:52,839 --> 00:30:54,839
to watch it and dubbed, And it's also easier on

572
00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:57,640
my end as well, because like I have my what

573
00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:00,480
I'm watching and reacting to, I have chat that I'm

574
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:02,240
looking at on my other monitor, and I have my

575
00:31:02,279 --> 00:31:05,200
obs on my other monitor that I'm adjusting scenes sometimes,

576
00:31:05,319 --> 00:31:07,160
So like when I'm watching sub I feel like I'm

577
00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:09,640
just locked in on reading versus dubbed. I could kind

578
00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:13,119
of handle the whole business process of it, versus like

579
00:31:13,119 --> 00:31:15,240
when I'm in bed and I'm just like watching anime

580
00:31:15,279 --> 00:31:16,960
like I'm gonna put on subs, like I'm gonna watch

581
00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:18,680
one Piece and subbed, you.

582
00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:22,519
Speaker 1: Know, yeah, okay, well honestly, if in bed, I also

583
00:31:22,559 --> 00:31:25,240
feel like, you know, it's more relaxing to just not

584
00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:26,839
have to worry about the subtitles.

585
00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:32,440
Speaker 2: But fair enough, Yeah, I do think that sometimes. Actually

586
00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:34,400
I lied. Most of the times, the sub tends to

587
00:31:34,559 --> 00:31:39,240
feel just better in regards to like that was I

588
00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:41,480
guess what was intended and then they're making adjustments to

589
00:31:41,519 --> 00:31:42,160
make it in English.

590
00:31:42,279 --> 00:31:45,279
Speaker 1: No, I totally agree. I do think that it's a

591
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:51,400
higher quality. The only thing is I find myself also

592
00:31:51,519 --> 00:31:53,039
preferring dub most of the time.

593
00:31:53,119 --> 00:31:54,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, just because it's.

594
00:31:54,599 --> 00:31:56,480
Speaker 1: Easier, I think, like lazier.

595
00:31:57,319 --> 00:31:59,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's funny. The trajectory guy went on. I feel

596
00:31:59,519 --> 00:32:02,680
like I started off only dubs, and then I started

597
00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:05,559
to realize while subs is actually better, like things that

598
00:32:05,599 --> 00:32:08,920
are badass in in Japanese sometimes they're cringing and English

599
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:10,440
or whatever. Like I'm like, I became a bit of

600
00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:12,920
a sub elitist as I got more and more into anime,

601
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:14,759
and then as I get older and I feel like

602
00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:17,359
I care a little bit less, I just do whatever

603
00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:21,599
is the most convenient and usually that's dubbed. I kind

604
00:32:21,599 --> 00:32:22,960
of went full full circle.

605
00:32:23,799 --> 00:32:26,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, I remember back in the day I used to

606
00:32:26,839 --> 00:32:28,920
watch I don't even know if the website is still running,

607
00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:31,960
probably or maybe not, but just dubs and it was

608
00:32:32,119 --> 00:32:35,559
like all these anime and dubs, no subs, and that

609
00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:37,400
was like my main source for watching.

610
00:32:37,799 --> 00:32:40,200
Speaker 2: That's hilarious. You and your brother are so different. This

611
00:32:40,359 --> 00:32:42,519
brother's such a such a sub elitist, it's crazy.

612
00:32:42,599 --> 00:32:44,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, but he was also an anime elitist, Like he

613
00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:49,359
used to like not think Shoonan was good and stuff

614
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:53,319
like that. And obviously he's changed the tune of his

615
00:32:53,359 --> 00:32:56,440
horn whatever you want to say it, cause yeah, you know,

616
00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:58,119
he used to be like, you know, colde Gia and

617
00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:00,559
I love these these animes talking about like thatath no,

618
00:33:00,839 --> 00:33:03,960
like they're all amazing. But you know, I'm not gonna

619
00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:05,960
put down Shan like a great Shonan.

620
00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:10,079
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, it's it's a good thing to see that

621
00:33:10,119 --> 00:33:12,319
someone's able to change and grow and develop, you know.

622
00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure, and Briggs.

623
00:33:14,599 --> 00:33:16,960
Speaker 2: Stinking with their own ways for twenty years.

624
00:33:17,119 --> 00:33:21,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's good at that. He he is very I

625
00:33:21,519 --> 00:33:24,119
know the right answer at the time and he's like

626
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:27,200
everyone else is wrong, but he does admit when he's

627
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:29,319
wrong down the line, and he'll be like, yeah, I

628
00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:31,640
was right. I should have bought bitcoin in twenty eleven.

629
00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:34,519
But what can you do because we had a friend

630
00:33:34,519 --> 00:33:39,200
telling us to do that in twenty eleven. But yeah, yeah,

631
00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:42,519
So another thing I was gonna say because it's a

632
00:33:42,559 --> 00:33:45,440
bit sad you didn't watch this latest episode, but yeah,

633
00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:50,640
there's a really good Shin Mashimo moment. He's Sky or

634
00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:55,240
whatever I need to I'm just gonna say Mashimo because

635
00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:57,680
I know Mashimo's correct. I don't know if I'm saying

636
00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:00,359
the right first name, so I'm just gonna say Shimo

637
00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:04,000
the Sniper and Shin they have a really great moment

638
00:34:04,119 --> 00:34:09,360
fighting an invisible guy, and yeah, it's it's one of

639
00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:12,599
my highlights so far. So I look forward to you

640
00:34:12,639 --> 00:34:15,079
to you seeing it and reacting to it. And also

641
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:20,920
a high level opponent Kashima appears, who's like a human

642
00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:24,519
weapon that Sakamoto has to fight against, and we see

643
00:34:24,599 --> 00:34:28,960
other members from the Order and it's funny how friendly

644
00:34:29,039 --> 00:34:32,559
they are with Sakamoto because Sakamoto was in the Order.

645
00:34:32,679 --> 00:34:36,760
So Shishiba and Osaragi a new member of the Order,

646
00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:41,480
and yeah, it's just where the world building is getting interesting,

647
00:34:41,599 --> 00:34:44,360
like all these man that should be a that would

648
00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:50,320
be a good video A all members of the Order explained, Yeah,

649
00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:51,960
if I caught up to this, that would be an

650
00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:54,360
interesting thing because all these guys are very interesting, these

651
00:34:54,519 --> 00:34:55,639
these assassins.

652
00:34:56,159 --> 00:35:02,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, interesting, write that down, that down, Yeah, potential

653
00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:06,719
anime up for a video guys that you can potentially

654
00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:07,440
look forward to.

655
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:11,440
Speaker 2: There All right, Well, overall, I think it's got some

656
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:14,000
badass moments. The characters are kind of the strong point,

657
00:35:14,119 --> 00:35:17,119
and it's hilarious at times as well. I do recommend

658
00:35:17,159 --> 00:35:19,519
this anime. And what are we going to do? What

659
00:35:19,559 --> 00:35:23,039
are we gonna do next week? What are we think? Yo?

660
00:35:23,519 --> 00:35:26,960
Speaker 1: So I will actually started reading where we left off

661
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:30,519
in Mushokutense. You remember I bought that volume, so I

662
00:35:30,559 --> 00:35:35,079
started reading that it's thirteen and I think there's twenty six.

663
00:35:35,639 --> 00:35:38,039
So I don't know if if you want to maybe

664
00:35:38,079 --> 00:35:40,239
do like a volume a month, and that could be

665
00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:44,280
like one of our monthly episodes of Mushutense, if you'd

666
00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:47,880
be down to do that at some point, but we

667
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:48,960
could do something else next week.

668
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:50,760
Speaker 2: I'm just saying I think I'm down for somebody else

669
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:53,039
next week. That would be I am kind of down

670
00:35:53,039 --> 00:35:53,199
for that.

671
00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:56,320
Speaker 1: I do love because it's like it sounds like a lot,

672
00:35:57,079 --> 00:36:00,960
like four hundred pages per per light novel, but you know,

673
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:04,599
the text is not big. It's like conversational. I think

674
00:36:04,639 --> 00:36:06,320
in a month it's very doable.

675
00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:07,360
Speaker 2: Mm hmm.

676
00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:12,239
Speaker 1: So yeah, that's that's that's possibility because yeah, that could

677
00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:15,280
be a source of content for anime opper as well.

678
00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:17,159
So we could kill two birds with one stone.

679
00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:19,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, I'm done for that, but for next we've

680
00:36:19,519 --> 00:36:21,079
got to do something else. I'm trying to think.

681
00:36:21,159 --> 00:36:27,039
Speaker 1: We did did we ever? What's the deal with uh

682
00:36:27,119 --> 00:36:30,400
that elf one Freeran? Did we ever finish that?

683
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:35,000
Speaker 2: I think we did. No. I really enjoyed fear In,

684
00:36:35,639 --> 00:36:36,760
but I think we did finish.

685
00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:39,559
Speaker 1: Okay, if we finished it, nothing then because I did

686
00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:43,000
want to finish. If we didn't, would.

687
00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:46,360
Speaker 2: You be interested in doing the first season a Doctor's

688
00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:47,079
Stone and not really?

689
00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,599
Speaker 1: Not really? I would just want to jump to to

690
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:57,239
the new season. I feel like I would. I would

691
00:36:57,320 --> 00:36:59,639
do that because I did watch the first season. I

692
00:36:59,679 --> 00:37:01,000
don't really want to redo it.

693
00:37:01,519 --> 00:37:03,679
Speaker 2: Fair enough, Okay, so why don't we do the newest

694
00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:05,320
season of Doctors done.

695
00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:08,559
Speaker 1: Then yeah, let's do it. How many episodes are out

696
00:37:08,599 --> 00:37:09,559
just so how it heads up?

697
00:37:10,079 --> 00:37:10,880
Speaker 2: I think around eight?

698
00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:12,679
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, it sounds good.

699
00:37:12,679 --> 00:37:15,440
Speaker 2: It's been airing alongside Soccomoto Days and one More or

700
00:37:15,559 --> 00:37:17,239
Less Give or take Perfect.

701
00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:20,239
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, sounds good. We'll do it. Then. I'm sure

702
00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:22,199
that I'm gonna be like, yo, this is actually good.

703
00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:26,599
Well I was I hating, but I feel like, I

704
00:37:26,599 --> 00:37:29,480
don't know, it's so science yre and it's like, but

705
00:37:29,559 --> 00:37:31,920
it's cool science, but it's like try hard cool signs.

706
00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:36,320
We'll see, we'll see. I usually end up liking things.

707
00:37:37,360 --> 00:37:39,519
Speaker 2: Yes, it's true. You're you didn't you gend me a

708
00:37:39,559 --> 00:37:41,519
little bit more optimistic than me with these series?

709
00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:44,360
Speaker 1: Well here it's funny. Here, I'm pessimistic, but I'm gonna

00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:45,360
be like I'm gonna view.

00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:54,480
