Speaker 1: This is an Unspoiled Network podcast. This is spoil Me,
0:09
Speaker 1: covering one piece episodes six eighty four through No. Six
0:15
Speaker 1: eighty five through six eighty seven. Steady progress, Loofy's Army
0:21
Speaker 1: versus Pica, a shocking confession, laws soulful Now, and a
0:27
Speaker 1: big collision Chief of Staff Sabo versus Admiral Fujitura. In
0:34
Speaker 1: these episodes, we have got some Zoro on Pika action.
0:40
Speaker 1: We have got our friend Moose still being adorable. We
0:45
Speaker 1: have got so like, very little real forward movement here,
0:51
Speaker 1: but lots of fun and silly character moments, So I'm
0:56
Speaker 1: into it. Welcome to spoil Me, Welcome to the show everyone.
1:19
Speaker 1: I am Natasha. Thank you very much to Florian for
1:22
Speaker 1: commissioning this episode. Saraphim is here in the chat and
1:26
Speaker 1: has said that they want to answer a question from
1:30
Speaker 1: last time about Fuji Torah. The scene was laying out
1:35
Speaker 1: what his motivation in this is the whole Do they
1:38
Speaker 1: think their God's line got the reaction it did because yes,
1:42
Speaker 1: world government dogma is that the celestial dragons are gods.
1:47
Speaker 1: Even questioning that is blasphemy. This was making clear he
1:51
Speaker 1: is fully calling out the government for them letting this happen,
1:55
Speaker 1: and him siding with the rightfully pissed off regular people
1:58
Speaker 1: paying the price. Okay, the people he had his marines
2:03
Speaker 1: rounding up are the ones Dophy is puppeting to restrain
2:06
Speaker 1: them and stop them from hurting other people.
2:10
Speaker 2: Okay, So.
2:12
Speaker 1: I see what you're saying, and I think that that
2:16
Speaker 1: makes sense.
2:18
Speaker 2: I wish that it was a.
2:19
Speaker 1: Little bit more established, that the way things work with
2:27
Speaker 1: the celestial dragons being considered gods was more like we have.
2:32
Speaker 1: I think the deal for me is that the celestial
2:37
Speaker 1: dragons are sort of late comers in the series. We
2:41
Speaker 1: really only saw them like in the lead up to
2:46
Speaker 1: the two year split, and since then we haven't had
2:50
Speaker 1: a lot of exposure to them, and I think that
2:54
Speaker 1: my understanding of the way that they are viewed and
2:57
Speaker 1: how talking about them is seen with like regard to
3:01
Speaker 1: their being celestial beings allegedly is just it's not fully
3:09
Speaker 1: ingrained in me as a viewer, so that when he
3:13
Speaker 1: decides to fly in the face of that, it lacks
3:15
Speaker 1: the punch that it might have if they had decided
3:19
Speaker 1: to sort of like hammer home a little bit more.
3:22
Speaker 1: Because I think my issue there's almost never any talk
3:27
Speaker 1: of the celestial dragons amongst like regular people in a
3:33
Speaker 1: way that feels like they are revered or treated as
3:36
Speaker 1: gods by anybody. The only time that we have really
3:39
Speaker 1: seen them is in regard to the slave trade on
3:44
Speaker 1: I can't remember the name of the island, but you know,
3:47
Speaker 1: we saw how they treat people and the fact that
3:52
Speaker 1: they are clearly despised and hated by the folks that
3:57
Speaker 1: are near them because of how they be, and so
4:01
Speaker 1: the idea that like calling them out as not actually
4:05
Speaker 1: being gods would be seen as blasphemous. While that may
4:10
Speaker 1: literally be true, it doesn't feel true based on the
4:13
Speaker 1: way that I saw everyone responding to them. There was
4:20
Speaker 1: just I mean, people are afraid of them, and they
4:23
Speaker 1: were catering to them because of their power and their money.
4:27
Speaker 1: But I never really saw there be like any pretense
4:32
Speaker 1: amongst anybody that they're really gods. So I feel like
4:37
Speaker 1: I think that might be sort of the weak spot
4:39
Speaker 1: for me in the arc that we're currently dealing with
4:43
Speaker 1: is that the celestial dragons are clearly bastards and they
4:47
Speaker 1: definitely need to be taken down. But I feel like
4:52
Speaker 1: we've only been given a drop in the grand scheme
4:58
Speaker 1: of the show, and it isn't enough to sustain a
5:03
Speaker 1: feeling of urgency to me in regard to like handling
5:08
Speaker 1: them as characters. They just we've really the only one
5:14
Speaker 1: that we really met is the one that Lofy punches,
5:18
Speaker 1: who is such a complete like caricature.
5:23
Speaker 2: The idea that anybody.
5:24
Speaker 1: Thinks that guy is a god is it just doesn't
5:29
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So I understand the point
5:32
Speaker 1: is supposed to be that, of course they're not gods,
5:35
Speaker 1: and it's supposed to be sort of ludicrous they're seen
5:38
Speaker 1: as gods because they are, you know. But I just
5:42
Speaker 1: don't feel it in universe in the way that I
5:45
Speaker 1: think I should. If that scene was supposed to hit
5:49
Speaker 1: that way, I think that's just a failure in the
5:53
Speaker 1: storytelling in my opinion. So I believe your assertion and
6:00
Speaker 1: I think it's correct. I'm not like arguing the point.
6:03
Speaker 1: I just don't really feel like that works on a
6:07
Speaker 1: visceral level. Let's see serfra goes on. The issue is
6:14
Speaker 1: more someone in his high position doing so as far
6:17
Speaker 1: as the rest of the world is concerned. The admirals
6:19
Speaker 1: of the CD's personal attack dogs avoiding being under them
6:23
Speaker 1: is Garb's main reason for refusing promotion. Yeah, and someone
6:28
Speaker 1: in a high position. But like I said, it doesn't
6:31
Speaker 1: feel like.
6:33
Speaker 2: This.
6:34
Speaker 1: I don't feel like this is all that well established.
6:38
Speaker 1: It just feels like we've been given some really broad
6:41
Speaker 1: strokes briefly, and then we are supposed to keep all
6:45
Speaker 1: of that in mind as we move into a whole
6:48
Speaker 1: different thing and haven't seen them for ages. So I
6:54
Speaker 1: think that the problem is with the story, with so
6:58
Speaker 1: many characters and moving parts and stuff and so many episodes,
7:03
Speaker 1: it really that if you want it to be like
7:06
Speaker 1: an ongoing thing, you need to keep it fresh in
7:09
Speaker 1: our minds a little bit more for there to be
7:13
Speaker 1: a for me to feel like continually invested in it.
7:19
Speaker 1: And it like the I think that the overall like
7:26
Speaker 1: involvement of the World government with them and everything, because
7:31
Speaker 1: whenever we get involved with that part of the story,
7:36
Speaker 1: it feels like we get another PARADEI of characters with
7:39
Speaker 1: new names, new powers, a whole thing, and we also
7:44
Speaker 1: get a kind of big info dump. It takes me
7:49
Speaker 1: out of the sense of the story mattering, and it
7:53
Speaker 1: makes me feel like I am in a history lesson
7:55
Speaker 1: where I have to remember names and dates and the
7:58
Speaker 1: actual real motivating factors behind why we're doing things that
8:03
Speaker 1: we're doing gets lost, and I want that to like
8:09
Speaker 1: exist more consistently in these main arcs, but they don't.
8:19
Speaker 1: I just don't feel like we have touched on this
8:22
Speaker 1: enough recently for Fujiitura's speech there to feel like it's
8:27
Speaker 1: having the effect that you're describing the way that it should,
8:31
Speaker 1: like if he's making this declaration and really sort of
8:35
Speaker 1: separating himself from the way the rest of the world
8:38
Speaker 1: government behaves and it's a momentous statement of his to
8:44
Speaker 1: be kind of like breaking off and saying this. I
8:48
Speaker 1: want the way that they are all forced to fall
8:53
Speaker 1: in line as admirals to have been hammered home more earlier.
9:01
Speaker 1: And in order for that to be true, we'd have
9:05
Speaker 1: had to spend more time with the admirals around the
9:09
Speaker 1: celestial dragons. We'd have to see an admiral kind of
9:13
Speaker 1: like fly in the face of this a little bit
9:15
Speaker 1: and get punished, and see the way that people responded
9:18
Speaker 1: to an admiral who was not handling it the way
9:22
Speaker 1: everybody else expected it to be handled. Like, I just
9:26
Speaker 1: it's just sort of odd, And this is where I
9:29
Speaker 1: keep falling with one piece in general, is for a
9:33
Speaker 1: story that is so huge and that relies on being
9:40
Speaker 1: like drawn out so much, that has so many characters,
9:46
Speaker 1: the ways in which we decide to do the drawing
9:50
Speaker 1: out feel like a huge waste, because there are a
9:56
Speaker 1: lot of things that I think could stand to be
9:59
Speaker 1: fleshed out, a lot more, more characters that we should
10:01
Speaker 1: really spend more time with, and they could use all
10:06
Speaker 1: of the time we're meant to have like stretching things
10:09
Speaker 1: out to go over to those characters and kind of
10:12
Speaker 1: like flesh other things out a bit more, And instead
10:19
Speaker 1: it's drawn out in like the most repetitive, boring ways.
10:24
Speaker 1: And I wish that there was some way to like
10:30
Speaker 1: have a sort of cutaway scenes every time that there
10:34
Speaker 1: is a period where we know we can't catch up
10:38
Speaker 1: with a manga here, we've got to like sort of
10:40
Speaker 1: be running in place.
10:41
Speaker 2: That we could have just.
10:42
Speaker 1: A little backstory on a particular admiral and just get
10:45
Speaker 1: their story and their history with things, and then jump
10:50
Speaker 1: to the present again, and it would feel like I'm
10:53
Speaker 1: getting a more overall sense of this world. It just
11:02
Speaker 1: I feel like things get squeezed into these tiny little
11:07
Speaker 1: groupings of episodes. So much is said and established in
11:11
Speaker 1: this very tight timeframe that I can't fully like wrap
11:15
Speaker 1: my head around it as I'm trying to cover it.
11:17
Speaker 1: And then we leave it, and we don't come back
11:20
Speaker 1: to that thing again for like seventy episodes, and then
11:23
Speaker 1: it comes back and I'm expected to like sort of
11:26
Speaker 1: have the same feelings on the thing that I did
11:28
Speaker 1: when it happened. It has been a really fucking long time,
11:33
Speaker 1: and I don't have the same emotional reaction to this
11:36
Speaker 1: stuff because it's been so long that I have half
11:39
Speaker 1: forgotten a lot of what's.
11:41
Speaker 2: Going on in this respect.
11:43
Speaker 1: So I just it just is frustrating for a show
11:47
Speaker 1: that is so big to say, like, I feel like
11:50
Speaker 1: we need to do more, but I do.
11:53
Speaker 2: I feel like we're.
11:55
Speaker 1: Going big but focusing in some of the wrong places
12:01
Speaker 1: on a lot of it. It feels like we want
12:06
Speaker 1: this story to have a certain like gravitas in regard
12:11
Speaker 1: to certain subject matter, but that isn't being consistently established
12:17
Speaker 1: enough for it to have an impact, and I think
12:22
Speaker 1: it could think.
12:23
Speaker 2: I think that's what's.
12:24
Speaker 1: Frustrating me, is that, like the potential is all there,
12:28
Speaker 1: the aspects that you're bringing up. I acknowledged that they
12:32
Speaker 1: had been established, but they don't feel like they have
12:38
Speaker 1: continued to be reinforced and re established. It's just been
12:44
Speaker 1: one time and then it's it almost feels lazy, you know,
12:50
Speaker 1: like I just need to mention it back here. And
12:53
Speaker 1: then I think that the problem is if I'm watching
12:59
Speaker 1: this for the first time and I'm not able to
13:02
Speaker 1: keep track of all of this, then the way that
13:06
Speaker 1: you are explaining how this works means that it sort
13:09
Speaker 1: of relies on repeat viewings and being able to headcanon
13:14
Speaker 1: things based on the knowledge that you gain after repeat viewings,
13:20
Speaker 1: which I don't feel is great storytelling. I feel like
13:26
Speaker 1: if it takes me having to watch hundreds and hundreds
13:29
Speaker 1: of episodes multiple times for me to keep all of
13:33
Speaker 1: these different factors in mind, then you are not organizing
13:37
Speaker 1: your information and your story very well. So the potential
13:43
Speaker 1: is there, and I just wish that it was being
13:47
Speaker 1: parsed out in a way that made more sense in
13:50
Speaker 1: terms of how the stakes should be constantly felt in
13:57
Speaker 1: a really visceral way. Instead, I am like so disconnected
14:05
Speaker 1: that this moment of his that should be a big deal.
14:07
Speaker 1: I'm sort of left cold and puzzled. You explain it
14:12
Speaker 1: to me and I'm like, oh, okay, I see that,
14:15
Speaker 1: but I didn't. I clearly didn't feel that, And even
14:18
Speaker 1: as you're telling it to me, I have to kind
14:20
Speaker 1: of squint and think back and be like, yeah, I
14:24
Speaker 1: guess that's true, but it doesn't like, do you know
14:29
Speaker 1: what I'm saying? The investment from me isn't there, and
14:33
Speaker 1: it should be. The whole thing with what the Celestial
14:36
Speaker 1: Dragons is doing with like the slave trade and running
14:38
Speaker 1: things was really grim and I want that to be
14:44
Speaker 1: something that is more of a concern to me. But
14:47
Speaker 1: it feels super hypothetical and distant right now. So yeah,
14:53
Speaker 1: I think it's It's a really tough thing because this,
14:59
Speaker 1: the way that my story is handled is just so
15:03
Speaker 1: beyond anything that I have covered before, anything that I
15:07
Speaker 1: am familiar with.
15:09
Speaker 2: The timeline is.
15:11
Speaker 1: Huge, the number of installments is it just boggles the mind.
15:17
Speaker 1: So I can understand kind of fumbling this because it's
15:25
Speaker 1: I don't know how many episodes this guy was planning
15:27
Speaker 1: on their being from the start, but I could see
15:31
Speaker 1: things kind of getting away from you when it starts
15:33
Speaker 1: to reach this level. I just feel like, by now,
15:38
Speaker 1: if we are still having this issue when you're trying
15:42
Speaker 1: to get into what feels more of the meat of things.
15:47
Speaker 1: I need you to start to get it together a
15:49
Speaker 1: little bit better, my guy, and spend more time on
15:53
Speaker 1: some of the stuff that you want me to think
15:55
Speaker 1: really matters here, because it just there's something that's not
16:02
Speaker 1: quite coming together. And like I said, I've been enjoying
16:07
Speaker 1: this arc. I really have, so it's not like this
16:10
Speaker 1: is something that's like killing my overall viewing experience. But
16:18
Speaker 1: when it comes to these like larger themes that I
16:22
Speaker 1: feel I should be picking up on, it's just sort
16:27
Speaker 1: of honestly, you know, this is kind of.
16:28
Speaker 2: Reminding me of guys.
16:29
Speaker 1: It's like back in the day. Melanie Lenaro has commissioned
16:32
Speaker 1: me to cover the Witcher series, the books, not the
16:36
Speaker 1: TV show, and I had a really similar experience with
16:42
Speaker 1: Witcher because there are all of these political machinations going on,
16:48
Speaker 1: but the people who are part of that political system
16:53
Speaker 1: are not like fleshed out very well. It's difficult to
16:57
Speaker 1: keep them straight. They kind of only popen to do
17:00
Speaker 1: some you know, real like heinous shit and then pop
17:04
Speaker 1: out again. And they are, in my opinion, by far,
17:09
Speaker 1: the least interesting part of the Witcher. But they are
17:13
Speaker 1: still we have to like do our little asides and
17:16
Speaker 1: deal with them and sort of slow down on the
17:18
Speaker 1: action and the parts of things that I really care about.
17:21
Speaker 1: So it's kind of a similar thing where like what
17:26
Speaker 1: I'm invested in is Lufi and his people and this
17:31
Speaker 1: greater issue with the celestial dragons and taking them down.
17:36
Speaker 1: Do I believe that our guys would be invested in
17:38
Speaker 1: doing this, absolutely, especially after everything that they went through.
17:42
Speaker 1: But do I feel they're like devotion to that cause
17:50
Speaker 1: in the in the arcs, No, not at all. They're
17:54
Speaker 1: going from like the real feeling is that they keep
18:00
Speaker 1: stumbling into being on the track to deal with the
18:05
Speaker 1: celestial dragons by accident based on other folks around them
18:09
Speaker 1: who actually have a plan, and they just, you know,
18:14
Speaker 1: with law wound up accidentally sort of involved.
18:18
Speaker 2: But they're.
18:21
Speaker 1: Being like personally really engaged on it, not at all
18:29
Speaker 1: barely Like with Loofy, it almost just feels really personal
18:34
Speaker 1: because of the encounter that he had with punching that
18:38
Speaker 1: one in the face. It's like, I don't even know
18:42
Speaker 1: if Lufy fully grasps what the dragons are, like the
18:46
Speaker 1: effect that they're having on the world. It kind of
18:49
Speaker 1: feels like Lufy is still so childlike in some ways
18:53
Speaker 1: that it's just like, oh, yeah, I really hated that
18:55
Speaker 1: one guy, so I want to take him out, you know.
18:58
Speaker 1: And I don't know if, like we're if this series
19:04
Speaker 1: is the type of thing where Loofy is going to.
19:08
Speaker 2: Kind of grow and see the big picture a.
19:12
Speaker 1: Little bit more clearly as like a goal for himself,
19:15
Speaker 1: if that's the kind of story we're doing.
19:17
Speaker 2: But I don't know. I just.
19:22
Speaker 1: There's something about this like larger overarching world government celestial
19:27
Speaker 1: dragon storyline that is like not quite jelling. But anyway, okay,
19:34
Speaker 1: So something that I had forgotten to mention about the
19:36
Speaker 1: last episodes too was when or maybe I did mention it,
19:41
Speaker 1: I don't remember now, But like, we have to climb
19:44
Speaker 1: up the sides of this huge plateau that our guys
19:46
Speaker 1: are hiding on, and Robin does that thing with her
19:50
Speaker 1: arms where she makes like a net for everybody to climb,
19:53
Speaker 1: And I had just really expected, because we've got all
19:57
Speaker 1: of these little people, that she would hand them from
20:00
Speaker 1: one hand to another, and instead making everybody climb just
20:03
Speaker 1: seems a lot less efficient. But I think the reason
20:07
Speaker 1: that we did it this way is because then we
20:10
Speaker 1: have to have all of them chased up by the
20:15
Speaker 1: bad guys who are trying to take out these you know,
20:19
Speaker 1: one in five star people who are on the webbing,
20:25
Speaker 1: so to speak, the latter. And it's so funny because
20:32
Speaker 1: it just does that thing where it takes a long
20:35
Speaker 1: time to get to the place that we're obviously going,
20:38
Speaker 1: which is that we are going to get rid of
20:42
Speaker 1: this webbing, and all of these guys are like climbing
20:45
Speaker 1: up after them, failing utterly to consider the fact that
20:50
Speaker 1: you are climbing on the body provided by somebody you
20:54
Speaker 1: are trying to catch. So what exactly do you think, Like,
20:58
Speaker 1: let's say that they did catch with her on this ladder,
21:02
Speaker 1: what do they think is going to happen when they
21:05
Speaker 1: catch her? These men are not smart, they have not
21:07
Speaker 1: thought ahead at all. But of course, and finally she
21:11
Speaker 1: is just like, why don't I just take this away?
21:14
Speaker 1: And she watches all of them fall and just does
21:17
Speaker 1: a little oops. And it's so funny because she says oops,
21:21
Speaker 1: and Bartolomeo just yells so classy about her, And I
21:26
Speaker 1: was like classy just because she said oops?
21:28
Speaker 2: Is that why? Like I was a little bit puzzled
21:30
Speaker 2: on that.
21:31
Speaker 1: One, And when they reached the top, Bartolomeo apparently was
21:37
Speaker 1: like under the impression that Lufy was still going to
21:41
Speaker 1: be at the top, and he's looking around for Loofy,
21:45
Speaker 1: and finally it's just like he's not here, and Robin's like,
21:48
Speaker 1: of course he's not here, and he's.
21:50
Speaker 2: Like, why didn't you tell me?
21:52
Speaker 1: And Oosap, who is like barely conscious, still just says
21:56
Speaker 1: he never stays in one place for more than five
21:59
Speaker 1: minutes at a time, at which point Bartolomeo goes gaga
22:03
Speaker 1: again and it's just like, oh my god, such freedom.
22:06
Speaker 1: He's got it all figured out. Bartolomeo continues to be
22:11
Speaker 1: like a real MVP of this arc every time that
22:14
Speaker 1: we go over to him, after the way that he
22:16
Speaker 1: was just established as such a tough guy. It is
22:21
Speaker 1: wonderful to have this turn the corner that it has turned.
22:25
Speaker 1: I really really enjoy it a lot. So the other
22:31
Speaker 1: thing that's happening is that uh Loofy is still up
22:36
Speaker 1: against Pica and still being pursued by a bunch of
22:40
Speaker 1: other guys who had been in the arena who want
22:44
Speaker 1: to fight do Filmingo themselves and take him out and
22:48
Speaker 1: have the glory for themselves. And earlier his arm got
22:54
Speaker 1: cut off, but uh, Pica's I mean, but it grows
22:58
Speaker 1: right back, which doesn't surprise me too much, And Loofy
23:03
Speaker 1: decides that he is going to do a third gear punch,
23:09
Speaker 1: which everybody around him is trying to keep him from
23:12
Speaker 1: doing because they think that it's suicide. But he goes
23:15
Speaker 1: right on in there punches Pika in the face and
23:19
Speaker 1: it crushes his face and his whole head begins to
23:22
Speaker 1: fall apart, and it seems to like freeze him up
23:25
Speaker 1: for a little bit, but we find out later that
23:29
Speaker 1: wasn't Pika's actual head, that was just a.
23:35
Speaker 2: That was just a.
23:37
Speaker 1: Rockhead, I guess, is really the only way to say that.
23:40
Speaker 1: I find it very funny. So you guys, Pica's voice
23:45
Speaker 1: like it would be one thing if it was just
23:47
Speaker 1: high pitched, but it's like high pitched and grating. It's
23:50
Speaker 1: a really fun combination that.
23:52
Speaker 2: I really like a lot.
23:54
Speaker 1: But there was a point in this section that got
23:59
Speaker 1: me fucking cracking up so bad. If any of you
24:03
Speaker 1: listening like stand up, I really recommend I think it's
24:07
Speaker 1: on Netflix. Brian Reagan had a stand up come out
24:12
Speaker 1: last year, maybe the year before. Brian Reagan is a
24:16
Speaker 1: comic who does almost in I think, entirely clean sets.
24:21
Speaker 1: There's like no swearing, or if there is, it's quite minimal,
24:28
Speaker 1: doesn't really tell dirty jokes. It's always like there's a
24:33
Speaker 1: there's nothing wrong of course with like dirty jokes and swearing.
24:36
Speaker 1: God knows, I don't care, but I do think that
24:39
Speaker 1: there is like sometimes an extra challenge in that and
24:42
Speaker 1: writing something. And he does this one bit about how
24:49
Speaker 1: every time that he says he doesn't like raisins, people
24:54
Speaker 1: think they're being really clever and go, do you like great, Well,
25:01
Speaker 1: reasons are just dried grapes, And he goes into this
25:07
Speaker 1: like incredibly irritating voice when he says this line that
25:14
Speaker 1: Owen and I, now, anytime somebody thinks they're being really
25:18
Speaker 1: fucking clever in like a comment section, we'll say that,
25:22
Speaker 1: we'll like read the line from the comment in that
25:25
Speaker 1: exact same tone of voice to each other. So it's
25:29
Speaker 1: like burned into my brain now. And at one point
25:33
Speaker 1: Pica says, I'm gonna crush you all like grapes, and
25:37
Speaker 1: he says grapes in the exact identical tone and inflection
25:43
Speaker 1: that Brian Reagan used, Pippin' sorry guys canting wandering around here, and.
25:51
Speaker 2: It was just the most beautiful, little.
25:53
Speaker 1: Like inside joke sort of moment. I lost my mind.
25:58
Speaker 1: I was cracking up so bad. This is one of
26:00
Speaker 1: those where I'm like, I have to remember this and
26:04
Speaker 1: like go find Owen later and play the moment for
26:07
Speaker 1: him because he's gonna understand exactly why this made me
26:10
Speaker 1: laugh so hard.
26:13
Speaker 2: But yeah, Pica's voice I.
26:17
Speaker 1: Just such a good example of how even if something
26:22
Speaker 1: is a trope, it can still work completely.
26:27
Speaker 2: The big guy a little voice.
26:29
Speaker 1: One would think this was tired, but they have just
26:32
Speaker 1: done so well with it that I can't help but
26:35
Speaker 1: fucking find this delightful.
26:37
Speaker 2: It is so funny.
26:40
Speaker 1: So anyway, uh the oh right, right, right. So I'm
26:48
Speaker 1: trying to make sure that I'm like because like a
26:50
Speaker 1: lot of this, uh, this trio of episodes, I feel
26:52
Speaker 1: like I can cover pretty quickly because it's a lot
26:54
Speaker 1: of just sort of traveling from one place to another,
26:57
Speaker 1: and it is drawn out this section and has a
27:00
Speaker 1: lot of things that are sort of like there's even
27:05
Speaker 1: pretty big sections of it with no sound at all.
27:09
Speaker 2: Which is really rare for this show.
27:11
Speaker 1: Oftentimes, when they're doing that stretch out type of thing.
27:16
Speaker 1: They will have the music going, they will have like
27:18
Speaker 1: the a a of people's shocked faces, like that sound
27:22
Speaker 1: effect going on. And there are a few moments where
27:25
Speaker 1: like Pika's looking for Loofy in like around the city,
27:30
Speaker 1: trying to locate him, and it's dead quiet, to the
27:34
Speaker 1: point that I actually checked because I thought sound there
27:38
Speaker 1: was like a sound problem on my computer while I
27:40
Speaker 1: was watching, because the scene goes on for long enough
27:43
Speaker 1: that like with no sound, I was sort of wait,
27:45
Speaker 1: is this And so anyway, all that said, I feel
27:50
Speaker 1: like I can talk about a lot of this somewhat easily.
27:53
Speaker 1: But the overall like thrust of this first of the
27:59
Speaker 1: three episodes is just Loofy getting into this. Like He's
28:07
Speaker 1: got these two dudes who are on Moose's back with
28:10
Speaker 1: him as well, who he keeps being sort of annoyed
28:14
Speaker 1: are there. But eventually he seems to like kind of
28:18
Speaker 1: resign himself to the fact that he's not going to
28:20
Speaker 1: get rid of them. And these dudes are not at
28:23
Speaker 1: all abashed at the fact that Lufy can't stand them,
28:26
Speaker 1: because Lufy is very much like just go away, and
28:29
Speaker 1: they keep on being like you don't mean that, and
28:32
Speaker 1: I was just I did kind of enjoy this personally, because.
28:37
Speaker 2: The way that you get used to.
28:42
Speaker 1: A certain group of people, like always being together on
28:45
Speaker 1: a TV show can almost be like clickish, And then
28:50
Speaker 1: you've got these other random characters that turn up out
28:53
Speaker 1: of nowhere that you don't know very well, and there
28:56
Speaker 1: is a sort of like what are you even doing here?
29:00
Speaker 1: You're watching it, you know, like you're not part of
29:02
Speaker 1: my You're not part of this, like get out of here.
29:04
Speaker 2: So I did find.
29:05
Speaker 1: It a little bit amusing that that is a running
29:08
Speaker 1: joke in this section of just like guys just go
29:11
Speaker 1: away and Luf being like no, so, oh my god,
29:16
Speaker 1: I'm sorry saraphim Is in the chat. The only way
29:18
Speaker 1: they could have made the Pika joke funnier is if
29:20
Speaker 1: they got the actual Pikachu voice actor to do it.
29:23
Speaker 2: That would be funny.
29:25
Speaker 1: I don't know that I would recognize it because I
29:26
Speaker 1: haven't watched the Pokemon TV show, but I have to
29:30
Speaker 1: assume it would really Like whether or not you recognize
29:33
Speaker 1: them for who they are, that would be very funny
29:37
Speaker 1: just to hear. So at this point, Pika finally begins
29:42
Speaker 1: to like come up out of the street in incredibly
29:47
Speaker 1: dramatic fashion, and Zorro was basically like, don't worry about it, Luf,
29:53
Speaker 1: I've got this guy. I'll handle him because he is,
29:56
Speaker 1: you know, about to attack poor Moose.
30:00
Speaker 2: Who Moose is fucking.
30:04
Speaker 1: Just here for it. I really have to admire this guy.
30:07
Speaker 1: It's not like he's running in with no fear or anything,
30:10
Speaker 1: but he's definitely like still down. If this is what
30:15
Speaker 1: we're doing, then okay, you know. And then all of
30:18
Speaker 1: a sudden he begins flying and I did not remember
30:22
Speaker 1: that this dude can fly, but he manages to like
30:25
Speaker 1: go right over Pica's head, and Zorro is the one
30:30
Speaker 1: that is left to deal with Pica and I love.
30:33
Speaker 1: At one point, I think Zoro calls him like soprano
30:36
Speaker 1: guy something like that.
30:41
Speaker 2: It is very fun as well.
30:44
Speaker 1: To see these dudes on Lufy's Moose's back looking over
30:53
Speaker 1: at Zoro and just being like, he's so cool. You
30:57
Speaker 1: have such cool friends. It's genuinely delightful. And eventually they
31:04
Speaker 1: say something about like that they're worried for Zoro, and
31:07
Speaker 1: Lufy has to be like, don't worry, my friend is
31:10
Speaker 1: not going to lose to a rock trust me, he's
31:13
Speaker 1: gonna be fine, and they seem quite impressed with how
31:16
Speaker 1: certain he is over this.
31:20
Speaker 2: So let's see, I'm trying to make sure.
31:23
Speaker 1: Oh right, we have all of these different guys that
31:27
Speaker 1: are like still out in the mix, trying to get
31:30
Speaker 1: to do Flamingo first, and there is a lot of
31:35
Speaker 1: oh my god, what is his name? What is the
31:37
Speaker 1: pretty blonde guy his name? I know he keeps saying cabbage,
31:42
Speaker 1: but what is it?
31:42
Speaker 2: Really?
31:43
Speaker 1: All I can think is cabbage now.
31:47
Speaker 2: Cavendish?
31:48
Speaker 1: Thank you, Sarah, Oh lufy, you poison my brain. The
31:56
Speaker 1: whole thing with Cavendish that keeps happening is like talking about,
32:03
Speaker 1: like what an amazing performance he is about to put
32:07
Speaker 1: on with like catching do Flamingo and he'll die at
32:12
Speaker 1: my hand, And then the way that others will respond
32:16
Speaker 1: to what he did, and like him being in the
32:18
Speaker 1: newspaper and put it in the art gallery. Maybe I
32:22
Speaker 1: should be on every page. The only problem is I'm
32:26
Speaker 1: brighter than the cameras, so I can't be captured. And
32:30
Speaker 1: the way he is falling all over himself in his
32:34
Speaker 1: own imaginings. Honestly, I love this energy, I really do.
32:41
Speaker 1: One of the things that I like about this kind
32:44
Speaker 1: of thing. Isn't just how hilarious a character like this is,
32:50
Speaker 1: but that there's also, I think sometimes a part of
32:55
Speaker 1: us that does kind of imagine these sorts of things
32:59
Speaker 1: not necessary at the scale Cavendish does, because this is
33:02
Speaker 1: literally how he seems to approach everything he does all day,
33:06
Speaker 1: every day. But you know what I'm saying, like that
33:10
Speaker 1: we disappear into these sort of fantasies in our heads
33:13
Speaker 1: of like the way that something might go down if
33:16
Speaker 1: everything were to be really perfectly magical. It's like when
33:21
Speaker 1: I went to see Beyonce with Rashawn last.
33:24
Speaker 2: Year, I uh, or no, the year before.
33:28
Speaker 1: I can't remember what year, it doesn't matter. I was
33:35
Speaker 1: putting together my outfit and I was like, I have
33:37
Speaker 1: to get this right, and I was talking about the
33:39
Speaker 1: hat and she was like, why are you so concerned
33:41
Speaker 1: about this? And I said to her, I was like,
33:44
Speaker 1: you know, I'm just gonna tell the truth. And I
33:46
Speaker 1: was like, because Rashan, when from you know, a quarter
33:51
Speaker 1: mile away, Beyonce on stage spots me in my outfit
33:56
Speaker 1: up in the stands and points to me and invites
33:58
Speaker 1: me on stage with her because she loves my outfit
34:01
Speaker 1: so much. I need to be ready, like.
34:06
Speaker 2: Like low key.
34:07
Speaker 1: If I'm being fully honest. That is what I'm imagining
34:11
Speaker 1: as my best case scenario for this outfit that I'm
34:13
Speaker 1: putting together, is that Beyonce herself will see me and
34:18
Speaker 1: be like, I am showcasing your brilliant outfit to the world,
34:23
Speaker 1: and I can't like, I can't even lie. That is
34:27
Speaker 1: just how it be in my head sometimes, you know,
34:30
Speaker 1: so Cavendish in a way is like relatable, but it's
34:34
Speaker 1: like a very embarrassing cringe way, but it's there.
34:37
Speaker 2: We all have these.
34:38
Speaker 1: Cringe tendencies somewhere in us, you know. Oh my god,
34:44
Speaker 1: these fucking two dudes, they nobody can stand against straw Hat.
34:50
Speaker 1: Only an idiot would ever get in his way. They're
34:53
Speaker 1: just like cheering him on and they're so supportive. This
34:56
Speaker 1: is when he says, like, you guys can get lost.
35:00
Speaker 2: We know you don't mean that.
35:01
Speaker 1: Here our buddy, Oh my god, amazing the fucking dude's
35:07
Speaker 1: coming out saying die it's over right here right now
35:12
Speaker 1: to loufy, And I'm just like, did you guys see
35:14
Speaker 1: the fact that he punched Peaka's head off for a second.
35:19
Speaker 1: It's I genuinely want there to be. I kind of
35:24
Speaker 1: feel like this would be a fun little series to
35:27
Speaker 1: do if I were more somebody that did like TikTok skits,
35:32
Speaker 1: but like.
35:35
Speaker 2: I would do a.
35:36
Speaker 1: Little series where I am on the sidelines during a
35:40
Speaker 1: major fight in some island there on, and I'm a
35:46
Speaker 1: reporter on the scene who is going up to all
35:50
Speaker 1: of these various different like henchmen who are about to
35:54
Speaker 1: challenge Loofy, and I am going, So, you're about to
35:59
Speaker 1: fight Lufy. You're about to fight the guy who killed
36:02
Speaker 1: and you know took care of so and so and
36:04
Speaker 1: so and so, the guy who you just saw do
36:07
Speaker 1: blank blank blank, and you are going to fight him?
36:10
Speaker 1: Can I ask what training you have? Can I ask
36:12
Speaker 1: what special skills you have? Have you eaten a devil fruit?
36:16
Speaker 1: Like just me kind of pressing them to find out
36:19
Speaker 1: what they think their advantage is that they're bringing to
36:22
Speaker 1: the fight, because I cannot imagine, and I don't. I'm
36:27
Speaker 1: not saying that this is like even a plot hole,
36:30
Speaker 1: because people are like this, you know, where they just
36:33
Speaker 1: really have like that kind of main character syndrome and
36:37
Speaker 1: they think like, well, sure that person seems really tough,
36:41
Speaker 1: but I've seen Rudy, I know that sometimes just being
36:45
Speaker 1: fucking like a scrappy determined guy, I'll get you where
36:49
Speaker 1: you need to go no matter what. And I just
36:52
Speaker 1: there's absolutely no reason for any of these men coming
36:56
Speaker 1: up against Loofy to think that they stand any more
36:59
Speaker 1: of a chance than the other sixty men that he
37:01
Speaker 1: has like laid out, and yet here they still come.
37:07
Speaker 2: You know.
37:08
Speaker 1: It's sort of reminding me of like John Wick, where
37:13
Speaker 1: the man is surrounded by bodies and these other dudes
37:18
Speaker 1: still no hesitation in coming for him, and I just
37:22
Speaker 1: want to be like, what is it like to have
37:24
Speaker 1: that kind of confidence?
37:25
Speaker 2: What does it like to live like that? Genuinely, I'm asking.
37:31
Speaker 1: We occasionally, in the midst of all of this go
37:35
Speaker 1: touch base again with like do Flamingo's guys and loud
37:40
Speaker 1: g watching everything, making lots of G jokes.
37:44
Speaker 2: This is so.
37:46
Speaker 1: Like, it's the kind of joke I feel shouldn't stay funny,
37:52
Speaker 1: and still somehow does and eventually have the confrontation between
38:03
Speaker 1: Fujita and Sabo.
38:07
Speaker 2: It's sort of weird.
38:08
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest, I think that the face off
38:12
Speaker 1: between the two of them is the part of this
38:18
Speaker 1: that fell the most flat for me. And it's not
38:21
Speaker 1: exactly that I like. I like Sabo, and Fujitura I'm
38:27
Speaker 1: sort of about but like he's fine. I think it's
38:30
Speaker 1: just the fact that it clearly has been drawn out
38:35
Speaker 1: that is quite obvious, and so that's sort of affecting
38:40
Speaker 1: the pacing of the whole thing together. But eventually, like
38:44
Speaker 1: Sabo is in the midst of like a crowd of
38:48
Speaker 1: people that he has taken out, and Fujiitura has told
38:52
Speaker 1: all of his dudes to sort of back off for
38:54
Speaker 1: a second, and Sabo says, your leader's right, if you
38:57
Speaker 1: guys all hit me at once, I feel a thing,
39:01
Speaker 1: and one of them shoots a bazooka at him. He
39:04
Speaker 1: lights up and it looks like he's on fire, but
39:07
Speaker 1: eventually that fire just parts and he's standing there and
39:10
Speaker 1: he's like, yeah, see, I told you so, I ate
39:13
Speaker 1: the flame flame fruit. If you didn't know, which evidently
39:17
Speaker 1: they didn't. I kind of assumed everybody knew, because I
39:20
Speaker 1: thought that we still had what was happening in the
39:24
Speaker 1: arena playing on like the big screens all over the place.
39:27
Speaker 1: Because I know that this one dude whose name I
39:30
Speaker 1: will never remember, with the weird half helm he was
39:36
Speaker 1: watching the fight at one point, so I think that
39:39
Speaker 1: I just assumed that he had kept watching and had
39:42
Speaker 1: seen the point where Sabo eats the fruit, but yeah,
39:46
Speaker 1: evidently he didn't.
39:48
Speaker 2: And there's.
39:52
Speaker 3: The The response is essentially like, what a shame that
39:59
Speaker 3: we let the leader of the revolutionary army get a
40:03
Speaker 3: hold of this fruit.
40:04
Speaker 2: It shouldn't have been allowed.
40:06
Speaker 1: Like this should have been something that went to the Marines.
40:12
Speaker 1: And they all insist on continuing to attack Sabo while
40:16
Speaker 1: this dude just keeps yelling don't fire. I told you,
40:19
Speaker 1: don't fire. Why aren't you guys listening to me? And
40:24
Speaker 1: I was so puzzled at this because I genuinely thought
40:28
Speaker 1: there was going to be, like, I don't know, some
40:32
Speaker 1: sort of spell.
40:33
Speaker 2: It just seems like this guy.
40:35
Speaker 1: Just utterly lacks control over his men, and there was
40:38
Speaker 1: something very humiliating about it to me and Sabo, like
40:45
Speaker 1: he has evidently also got intense strength, which I don't
40:48
Speaker 1: know if this is supposed to be hockey that he's using,
40:50
Speaker 1: but he is able to like crush the barrels of
40:53
Speaker 1: some of these bazukas so that they won't even fire.
40:59
Speaker 1: And it's just you know, he said he ate the
41:01
Speaker 1: flame flame fruit, and these dudes are continuing to fire
41:04
Speaker 1: on him, and I'm like, I thought that ace was
41:07
Speaker 1: fairly well known. I would think that the flame flame
41:11
Speaker 1: fruits resulting immunity to fire as a weapon should be
41:17
Speaker 1: on like the forefront of your minds. I don't know,
41:23
Speaker 1: Marine Oh.
41:24
Speaker 2: Is the way he is listed.
41:26
Speaker 1: This has become quite the tragedy, second in command of
41:28
Speaker 1: the Revolutionary Army, to think we let someone like him
41:32
Speaker 1: get that fruit. That's right, that's the way that he
41:35
Speaker 1: puts it. But Steele, so Marine OH is Bastille or
41:43
Speaker 1: is it Marine zero. It's hard to tell if that's
41:46
Speaker 1: a zero or a letter O. But yeah, this is
41:51
Speaker 1: when he says, you guys all need to step aside
41:53
Speaker 1: and leave this one to me. And I had no
41:57
Speaker 1: doubt whatsoever as he steps forward that he is going
42:00
Speaker 1: to be absolutely spanked. He like has that blade that
42:06
Speaker 1: slices up entire buildings all around them, which just the
42:11
Speaker 1: thing that I kept thinking about with this is the
42:15
Speaker 1: way that in Dresden Files, Harry Dresden describes levels of
42:21
Speaker 1: ability within the White Council of Wizards and how Harry
42:26
Speaker 1: himself is like, I have a lot of raw power,
42:29
Speaker 1: but I do not have fine control over that power.
42:34
Speaker 1: So you know, I go to blow something up and
42:38
Speaker 1: I cause a lot of collateral damage. But then there's
42:41
Speaker 1: somebody like Luccio who uses the force of the same
42:46
Speaker 1: level and fire mixed in with it, but she makes
42:50
Speaker 1: it into these laser thin beams that are very, very
42:55
Speaker 1: precision oriented, and it just shows how much more practice
43:01
Speaker 1: she has and how much more efficient her magic is.
43:05
Speaker 1: Because when he has all of this like splash damage,
43:10
Speaker 1: it's him pouring a bunch of power out in gusha
43:15
Speaker 1: like bucketfuls, but only a quarter of it or half
43:20
Speaker 1: of it actually affects the thing he intends to affect.
43:24
Speaker 1: Whereas Luccio puts out this like pinpoint beam and it
43:28
Speaker 1: goes exactly where she needs it to go, and so
43:31
Speaker 1: it is incredibly efficient. Un Thus she is able to
43:34
Speaker 1: get a lot more done using her ability that way.
43:37
Speaker 2: And that was what I kept.
43:39
Speaker 1: Thinking about Bastille and his sword. Here is like he
43:42
Speaker 1: is swinging this sword and tearing up this entire town
43:46
Speaker 1: around him, and it just is so wasteful, you know,
43:51
Speaker 1: It's just all I could think the whole time was
43:53
Speaker 1: just like, sir, these are people's homes, hasn't enough damage
43:57
Speaker 1: already been done. Pika is out here like pulling the
44:00
Speaker 1: ground apart and turning buildings upside down and dumping people
44:04
Speaker 1: out onto the street. You aren't supposed to be like
44:09
Speaker 1: just as bad, and here you are just slicing buildings
44:13
Speaker 1: up and sending them flying.
44:15
Speaker 2: So uh.
44:18
Speaker 1: Sabo at this point uses his dragon claw technique, and
44:24
Speaker 1: when Bastillo swings this huge sword, Sabo catches the sword
44:30
Speaker 1: blade in his fingers and holds onto it, and it's
44:34
Speaker 1: a sort of like long stare as his hand trembles
44:39
Speaker 1: just a little bit against the force of the blade,
44:43
Speaker 1: and the blade begins to crack and breaks in half.
44:51
Speaker 1: And then he grabs best Still's head and says, these
44:57
Speaker 1: fingers grab onto a human head and they can shatter
45:01
Speaker 1: it to pieces like an egg. Now, I was sort
45:05
Speaker 1: of hopeful that all he was doing was just to
45:07
Speaker 1: Bastille's mask to make a point, but there was it
45:12
Speaker 1: seemed to me like a bit of a look in
45:14
Speaker 1: his eyes, like he was actually prepared to break this
45:17
Speaker 1: man's head, which is pretty uh cold blooded. At this point,
45:23
Speaker 1: Fuji Tora does a one of those comets, and as
45:28
Speaker 1: it comes down, he's like, uh, well, this is a
45:32
Speaker 1: bit of a problem, huh, because the comet comes down
45:36
Speaker 1: and hits the bird cage and just splits into all
45:41
Speaker 1: of these pieces as it hits it, and so they
45:44
Speaker 1: get spread into like these disks that are coming down
45:48
Speaker 1: to like reak absolute havoc on everything. Once again, the
45:55
Speaker 1: collateral damage. You've got just poor townspeople out here running
46:00
Speaker 1: way from a huge chunks of this fucking meteor. He's
46:05
Speaker 1: trying to deal with one dude, one Sabbo, and this
46:10
Speaker 1: guy has decided to call down an entire meteor and
46:14
Speaker 1: then is like, wow, uh, this isn't working out how
46:18
Speaker 1: I plan because of the bird cage. No, sir, it's
46:21
Speaker 1: because it's a fucking meteor. You didn't have to do that,
46:26
Speaker 1: like find another way to use this power or handle
46:31
Speaker 1: this guy. Oh my god, the amount of damage. So
46:38
Speaker 1: he's literally standing there going, oh, I really should have
46:43
Speaker 1: thought through that one a little bit better. I don't
46:46
Speaker 1: even know where all the pieces went. I really made
46:49
Speaker 1: a mess. Sorry, I swear to god. This is actually
46:55
Speaker 1: a pretty good metaphor though, for like people with Bonker's
46:58
Speaker 1: power doing shit without things thinking about it, and then
47:00
Speaker 1: being genuinely surprised that stuff has gone wrong, Like I
47:05
Speaker 1: I it's I'm not sure if that's intentionally what we're
47:08
Speaker 1: doing here, but it feels like that to me. Just
47:12
Speaker 1: everything stops being real to them after a certain point,
47:19
Speaker 1: you know what I mean.
47:20
Speaker 3: Like the.
47:22
Speaker 2: Overall scope.
47:24
Speaker 1: They get too caught up in the big picture. So
47:30
Speaker 1: Sabo uh appears holding this fucking mask after having taken
47:36
Speaker 1: Bastille down, and all of his guys are like, are
47:40
Speaker 1: you okay, sir, and Sabo is just like, I'm still
47:45
Speaker 1: getting used to my powers. But that did work pretty well.
47:50
Speaker 1: As he is standing there kind of feeling himself, which
47:53
Speaker 1: I forgive him for because he has been pretty badass today.
47:58
Speaker 2: Fujitauras says, you.
48:00
Speaker 1: Really have caused quite the mess, the absolute nerve, I
48:07
Speaker 1: swear to God. So this is the point when Fujita
48:11
Speaker 1: is talking to Sabo and he's like, hey, so I
48:14
Speaker 1: was thinking about firefist Ace and how you know when
48:19
Speaker 1: he appeared at Marine Ford he said that straw Hat
48:23
Speaker 1: Lufy was his brother, but not by blood, and it
48:28
Speaker 1: got me thinking, maybe you are also Lufy's brother? Is
48:34
Speaker 1: that right? And we once again get the flashback about
48:38
Speaker 1: all you need to be brothers is to share some sake.
48:42
Speaker 2: And uh.
48:45
Speaker 1: Yeah, he the bit here with Saba Fuchatora says, I
48:51
Speaker 1: must say, that's a rather troublesome little family you've got there,
48:55
Speaker 1: and the guys off the side listening say.
48:58
Speaker 2: One of them is enough.
49:00
Speaker 1: And when they say one of them is enough, it
49:03
Speaker 1: cuts to Loofy charging through the smoke on Moose's back
49:10
Speaker 1: with his like one fist up law draped over Moose's
49:17
Speaker 1: back with a really irritated expression on his face, and
49:21
Speaker 1: then the other guys who are riding the back of
49:23
Speaker 1: Moose like cheering him on. It is honestly a really
49:29
Speaker 1: great little like I wouldn't mind this as a desktop image.
49:32
Speaker 1: It's genuinely a really funny like character moment for all involved,
49:40
Speaker 1: and the idea of all of them being like one
49:43
Speaker 1: is enough. And then you see this absolute chaos demon
49:47
Speaker 1: riding this bull. Yeah that makes sense, and.
49:54
Speaker 2: He says.
49:55
Speaker 1: Sabo says, mark my word, No matter where I am,
49:59
Speaker 1: no matter what I'm doing, even if I must abandon
50:03
Speaker 1: my duties, the moment Loofy needs my help, I'll be there.
50:09
Speaker 2: And it's just a nice little moment.
50:13
Speaker 1: I won't let him down, and I'm glad Sabo is
50:17
Speaker 1: still alive. I do wish that, like well, I was
50:21
Speaker 1: gonna say, I wish that he had stayed like clear
50:24
Speaker 1: until Ace was there or Ace was gone. But I'm
50:29
Speaker 1: making some assumptions. I do think I'm correct though Ace
50:35
Speaker 1: didn't know Sabo was still alive right like it wasn't
50:39
Speaker 1: like Ace knew and was keeping it from Loopy. Ace
50:41
Speaker 1: also didn't know. I am very interested in finding out
50:46
Speaker 1: what kept Sabo await for so long and why he
50:48
Speaker 1: felt like he couldn't tell.
50:49
Speaker 2: Either of them.
50:54
Speaker 1: But yeah, and we have this weird flashback where it's
51:01
Speaker 1: like Sabo screaming as he I think it's supposed to
51:05
Speaker 1: be that he had just read the news that Ace
51:08
Speaker 1: was dead and him just like falling to his knees
51:14
Speaker 1: in grief, and the silhouettes of everybody coming to his aid.
51:18
Speaker 1: But it's just animated in an odd way where it
51:21
Speaker 1: almost looks like you know those Greek vases where they
51:25
Speaker 1: have like the silhouettes of gods or people and.
51:30
Speaker 2: There, you know what I'm talking about.
51:32
Speaker 1: It's sort of like that, a very interesting way of
51:35
Speaker 1: doing this that I don't remember having seen on this show,
51:38
Speaker 1: but I sort of liked. But anyway, Yeah, Sabo just
51:42
Speaker 1: says never again and stares down Fujirah, and we have
51:47
Speaker 1: Fuji tourah like with his weird He says, I think
51:52
Speaker 1: I've asked enough questions hardly any point, and Saba was
51:59
Speaker 1: I you, And he says, I like a story better
52:02
Speaker 1: when I can enjoy it with a cup of sake,
52:06
Speaker 1: and he uses his ability that causes Sabo to be
52:10
Speaker 1: unable to move. We see these like weird streaks that
52:14
Speaker 1: pop up around that are I think supposed to be force,
52:18
Speaker 1: but it doesn't appear to take hold because Sabo is
52:21
Speaker 1: able to draw his weapon and you know, bring the
52:25
Speaker 1: flames up. So I thought that that was like gonna
52:30
Speaker 1: be him held in place while Fujiitura did.
52:33
Speaker 2: His thing, but I guess not. I don't know.
52:38
Speaker 1: Maybe the maybe the lines of force around him were
52:41
Speaker 1: supposed to be his own ability, but Fujiitura can do
52:44
Speaker 1: that right, can make it so you are unable to move.
52:48
Speaker 1: I feel like I remember that from earlier. So anyway,
52:55
Speaker 1: he leaps into the air, comes down like a comet himself.
53:00
Speaker 1: I'm in Fujitura lock blades and Sabo says, lufy I
53:04
Speaker 1: swear I'll protect you and then it is the end
53:07
Speaker 1: of the episode to be continued. So sorry, I just
53:15
Speaker 1: saw that that, uh Seraphim had been commenting that I
53:19
Speaker 1: miss some of it. You can't sum up one piece
53:21
Speaker 1: in a single image. The image Sengoku screaming Garp, it's
53:25
Speaker 1: your damn family again. Oh my god, that's funny. As
53:29
Speaker 1: far as we know, correct Ace thought he was dead
53:31
Speaker 1: as well. Gravity doesn't affect fire that well, since it's not.
53:35
Speaker 2: A physical thing.
53:36
Speaker 1: Oh I see, Okay, that's a nice little trick. Yeah,
53:41
Speaker 1: that's flame flamefruit. Seems like it's gonna work out real
53:43
Speaker 1: well for Saboka, for him. All Right, well, I'm gonna
53:48
Speaker 1: wrap this one up, but h I appreciate you guys listening.
53:52
Speaker 1: Thank you to Saraphim for joining me in the chat.
53:55
Speaker 1: And I just wanted to also let you guys know
53:58
Speaker 1: that there has it's been there have been people who
54:02
Speaker 1: have reached out and told me that they have had
54:04
Speaker 1: issues with getting into the crowdcast, and I'm sorry about that.
54:08
Speaker 1: I know that this has been an imperfect system. It
54:12
Speaker 1: was just like there were very few other options. However,
54:21
Speaker 1: now Patreon has enabled going live and they record those
54:27
Speaker 1: lives for you on Patreon. Chats, and I am very
54:34
Speaker 1: strongly considering leaving crowdcasts entirely and moving over to the
54:39
Speaker 1: Patreon chat only for spoil mes from here on out,
54:44
Speaker 1: or not necessarily from today, but soon, because they are
54:49
Speaker 1: working a lot more reliably for everybody, not everybody everybody like,
54:54
Speaker 1: It's not one hundred percent across the board flawless for
54:57
Speaker 1: absolutely every user, but it has been in overall a
55:01
Speaker 1: much better experience for practically everybody, and I find it
55:08
Speaker 1: easier to do from my end, and also because of
55:11
Speaker 1: the way that Patreon now has the ability to make collections,
55:16
Speaker 1: I can and tag things, I can keep them organized
55:23
Speaker 1: on my own Patreon, which I just really like the
55:26
Speaker 1: idea of things being sort of native to my own
55:30
Speaker 1: Patreon page and not having to send people over to
55:33
Speaker 1: crowdcasts separately. So that is very likely coming. I just
55:39
Speaker 1: wanted to let you guys know ahead of time. I
55:43
Speaker 1: will be making probably a new free chat, and that
55:45
Speaker 1: way it won't be patrons only to come to these lives.
55:48
Speaker 1: But I'll make a free chat and have the lives
55:52
Speaker 1: set up there, and the recordings of the lives will
55:56
Speaker 1: still go up and then I'll post the actual audio.
56:00
Speaker 1: But I just wanted to give you all a heads
56:03
Speaker 1: up on the change coming because I, like, I understand
56:10
Speaker 1: that you guys were running into so many issues with
56:12
Speaker 1: these lives and I wanted to do something, but it
56:16
Speaker 1: was like, either I completely change over to a whole
56:18
Speaker 1: new system which has a lot of its own problems,
56:22
Speaker 1: or I stick it out here and hope that they
56:24
Speaker 1: fix some of the problems they've been having. And some
56:27
Speaker 1: of those problems they have been able to help and
56:30
Speaker 1: improve on, but not enough of them. And I have
56:34
Speaker 1: noticed that overall the lives aren't as well attended as
56:38
Speaker 1: they were, and I think it's just pure technical issues
56:41
Speaker 1: that are causing that a lot of the time. So yeah,
56:46
Speaker 1: if you are somebody who has wanted to come to
56:48
Speaker 1: these and has just always had a problem with it,
56:51
Speaker 1: fear not. It looks like there's going to be a
56:54
Speaker 1: better way coming up soon. So if you are not
56:57
Speaker 1: already a follower on Patreon, you don't have to pay.
57:00
Speaker 1: You can just become a free member. Go to patreon
57:03
Speaker 1: dot com slash Unspoiled, become a free member and join
57:08
Speaker 1: the free chat, and I will start experimenting with doing
57:13
Speaker 1: these over there and just see how it goes. So
57:17
Speaker 1: I hope that you guys will join me and that
57:20
Speaker 1: this one will work out a little bit better. All right, everybody,
57:24
Speaker 1: thank you again so much appreciates you all, and until
57:27
Speaker 1: next time to Loo motherfuckers. That was an Unspoiled Network podcast.
