Latest / Michelle Explains Anime, Poorly / Re:Zero Ep. 21- A Wager That Defies Despair
Transcript
- 0:00Hey, it's your person, Michelle, and I am here again in my
- 0:07house, and you're here, but not in my house, maybe in your
- 0:11house or like a car or some sort of public transportation or like walking,
- 0:19or in someone else's house or at work. Like I'm kind of running out
- 0:24of places that you might be. So I hope I got it. If
- 0:26I didn't, I'm sorry. But we're gonna talk about re zero because that's
- 0:32what we do. But first I wanted to say a couple of really interesting
- 0:37things happened this week in Anime News, And technically it was last week.
- 0:42It's this week when I'm recording it. But for you, this is gonna
- 0:45be stuff that happened last week, so you're gonna be like, oh,
- 0:47okay, already knew about this if you know about anime. If not,
- 0:51here we go. So two things. One is that there's going to be
- 0:57a new one piece and like a retelling redo of the one piece anime,
- 1:04you know, based on the manga, and it's going to be done by
- 1:07Studio Wit, which is a really good studio. I'm sure you are familiar
- 1:12with them. Maybe they did the first three seasons of Attack on Titan and
- 1:19something else and some other things, and all of a sudden, I forgot
- 1:22everything that Wit did. But they're like a really good studio, So this
- 1:27is gonna be like super interesting because I don't know if you know a lot
- 1:33about One Piece. I don't know if we've ever talked about this before,
- 1:38but One Piece has I think currently like eleven hundred episodes. Yeah, not
- 1:47one hundred and ten, eleven hundred, like one thousand, one hundred episodes
- 1:52because it runs weekly and forever. Basically it's just been going on forever,
- 1:57and the manga it's based on it's good, but the anime is hard to
- 2:04watch because there are severe pacing issues, like really severe, like I've never
- 2:08seen anything this badly paced before. For a lot of it, I'm stuck
- 2:14at the Marine Ford arc because like Lufy was just running and running and running
- 2:21for like ten episodes, like him running and reaction shots in the first five
- 2:24minutes are a combination of the theme and them just talking about like what's happened
- 2:30so far. It's hard to watch, is what I'm saying. And it's
- 2:35a good story and I really like it in theory, but the anime is
- 2:38really difficult to get through. I mean, besides being over a thousand episodes
- 2:43in and not done yet. So I actually think this is a really positive
- 2:46thing. And I feel like a lot of people who love one Piece,
- 2:50especially just like the manga, the actual source material, are really excited about
- 2:54this and I'm really excited too. So yeah, who knows when it's actually
- 3:00going to come out, but we just found out about it, so there.
- 3:06And then the other thing, which kind of relates to this show a
- 3:08little bit, is that Chainsaw Man just got a movie announcement, So the
- 3:15next arc of Chainsaw Man is going to be adapted into a movie, which
- 3:20is something that the weird CHAINSAWMN fan community had wondered if was going to happen
- 3:25next and then we would get another season after. So they were right,
- 3:30I guess, or we were right. I don't know if I count,
- 3:32but yeah, if you were with me when we, you know, watched
- 3:37Chainsaw Man and you like CHAINSAWMN, the next arc is like really really good
- 3:43and I am incredibly excited and I will go see it in theaters if we
- 3:46get a chance, and I think that we'll probably get it in theaters here
- 3:50maybe, so whenever that is, but you know, there's not a date
- 3:53announced. I don't know if it's gonna be next year or the year after.
- 3:57Who knows if any of us will still even be alive. That's a
- 4:00good thing to think about, right, But if we are, we should
- 4:02go we should go see the movie together. Maybe we're not. That's kind
- 4:06of weird. I'm not making a promise to you that's two years out whatever.
- 4:11Now that I've like talked myself into a hole, let's talk about REE
- 4:15zero episode twenty one, which is called a Wager that Defies Despair, which
- 4:20sounds like a pretty positive title, like maybe good things will happen. And
- 4:26also we're back to titles of episodes that I think are like pretty interesting and
- 4:30cool. So good Jobree zero. So if you remember from last time the
- 4:34Whale, like all of a sudden, there were like three white whales and
- 4:38they're swimming in the sky. So this is really bad probably, So that's
- 4:42where we start off this episode. Three whales swimming in the sky, are
- 4:46flying or whatever that is that they do. And then Mimi is like captain
- 4:51because she's concerned about him Ricardo because remember he might have died, and Felix
- 4:56and Cruise kind of are like looking really shocked and like a night drops his
- 5:00sword and everybody's like looking up in dismay at this collection of white whales flying
- 5:08in the sky, and a couple of people are like talking and I don't
- 5:12know if it's multiple nights or one guy, but someone's like how, And
- 5:15then someone else is like, it's all over, We're dead, and we
- 5:19see a shot of Ricardo, who is on the ground, either passed out
- 5:24or dead, and then we hear Subaru say, don't let swallow him.
- 5:29If we get him out before he's swallowed, we can save him. And
- 5:31he's talking about Wilhelm. Remember he got eaten by the white whale in the
- 5:35last episode. So then ram attacks the white whale with her mace and then
- 5:43like falls off the whale and Suber catches her as she's falling, so they're
- 5:48on the ground dragon and Suber is like, don't think a little bit of
- 5:51despair will stop me. Giving up does not suit us, not me,
- 5:56not you, not anyone. And then the whale makes some whale noises and
- 6:00we see the show title card, so no opening, yay back to the
- 6:06show. Ram like has her glowy horn now and she jumps onto the white
- 6:12whale and she strikes it with her mace, and Suber is like, let's
- 6:15go Patrache, which apparently is the name of the ground dragon, which I
- 6:24don't remember them ever saying that that was her name or its name before,
- 6:30So what was really weird to me that he just said that? And I
- 6:32was like supposed to understand, but whatever. So he's like, let's go
- 6:36Patrache or something, run right under the whale's nose and the ground dragon takes
- 6:42off like really fast, and the whale is like right behind him, and
- 6:46m goes the only one who can sniff suber o'coon is me you, and
- 6:50then she hits the whale again, and Subro is like looking behind him as
- 6:56this is all happening, and then he turns back to see like the fog
- 6:59growing in front of him, and then we hear krushe somewhere off screen.
- 7:02Go close your mouth. And then she hits the whale and like rides up
- 7:06to Subru and she's like, at a glance, the situation looks dismal.
- 7:12Where's Willhelm? I guess she didn't see all that, And Suber's like,
- 7:15if you remember him, at least we know the fog hasn't erased him,
- 7:17and he looks up at the whale and he's like, everything depends on how
- 7:20well wherem fights and Crush says, what do you think? Does nothing seem
- 7:26strange to you? And Suber is like, what do you mean? And
- 7:29Cruse says, there are now three white whales. If this is actually a
- 7:33mobbist that lived in groups, like, wouldn't we have known that by now?
- 7:38There must be some trick behind it. And Subru says, and we
- 7:41have to find that out, huh. And they come to a stop and
- 7:45crusehs like, if not, we won't hold out for long. Retreat is
- 7:49no longer an option, and then the whale starts like heading for them again,
- 7:54and Crush is like fire and nothing happens, and Krush looks over to
- 8:01see her troops just standing there, totally terrified, and Cruse is like,
- 8:05I said, fire, and they just do nothing but stand there and shake.
- 8:09So Cruse has to like slash at the whale herself. And then the
- 8:13whale starts after Subrou and it's like shooting mist at him, and he's like
- 8:18dodging and like riding really fast on Patrosia and rem like takes aim at those
- 8:24vents. I think she's on the whale. At this point, she like
- 8:28hits those like vents that have all the stuff coming out of them, but
- 8:31they like regenerate right away, and another blast of fog like strikes and it
- 8:37knocks Suberu almost off the ground. Dragon like he's no longer sitting up and
- 8:41he's kind of like about to fall off, and the white whale is like
- 8:46inches away like behind him, with its mouth open, and Suber's like will
- 8:50power and he manages to get himself upright, and he's like, shit,
- 8:54being a daredevil isn't enough. I got to use my head? Why are
- 8:56there three of them? And then which is like duck and suber ducks and
- 9:03those like little kids from the Hoshino Mercenary group come and they like scream and
- 9:07it like blasts at the whale and it like hits the whale, and the
- 9:11whale actually starts falling, and Khrush slashes at it, and the ho Shian
- 9:16group like starts stabbing it and shit, and Ta Taro's like, we'll back
- 9:20up Natzki and Crush until the captain is fully healed and we can regroup.
- 9:24Oh, I guess Ricardo's okay, yay, And then Subru says, Ricardo's
- 9:28still alive. Yeah, that's that was what I thought too, And Nataro
- 9:31says that Mimi brought him to Felix, so he's okay sort of, and
- 9:37Mimi's like, he struggled a lot. It wasn't easy, and Suber's like,
- 9:41hussy, like thank god, and Nataro says, on the verge of
- 9:45death, our captain sent a message and then he says, like in a
- 9:48really gruff voice with a really mean looking face, Hey, it's getting a
- 9:52lot lighter. The fact that I didn't die proves that. And he says,
- 9:58that's what he said, and Super is like lighter. What's light about
- 10:01a hard situation like this? And he's thinking light and Suber thinks about like
- 10:07all the past events of the day, and then he gasps and he's like
- 10:11that's it. I get it. And then another of the whales like crashes
- 10:16into the ground and like starts to writhe, I think the other whale when
- 10:22everybody was attacking it, I think it like fell. I'm not sure.
- 10:24So this whale like falls to the ground and it's like starts to ride the
- 10:28round on the ground and rem and like those kids like go to like fight
- 10:33it, and then Wilhelm's hand just like pops out of the whale's body,
- 10:37and then like his whole horso pops out of the body and he screams and
- 10:41he falls to the ground, and like Super runs over to him, see
- 10:45if he's okay, and Wilhelm is like, not skilled enough. I was
- 10:48careless, and Tataro asks if he's okay, and Suber's like, yeah,
- 10:52he's just unconscious. Okay, that's not okay, and Super continues, sorry,
- 10:58but could you take him to Felix And Hitaro's like sure, but what
- 11:03about you? And Subaru looks up at that remaining whale that's still flying in
- 11:05the sky and is like, I realized something. Then we cut to the
- 11:11whole hole. Schine group like hurt in the whale a lot, which makes
- 11:13me kind of sad, and then we hear kind of like a voiceover and
- 11:16Krush says it divided, and Suber says, yeah, it's fighting strength.
- 11:22And the left eye that Wilhelm gouged out convinced me. Your group's been engaging
- 11:26him head on, so you must have sensed it. And Ram, who
- 11:30was also there, says, I was absorbed in the battle, but you're
- 11:33right, And then Crush is like, I do agree with the conjecture that
- 11:35this one is weaker than the original body, But what does knowing that do?
- 11:41Killing three white whales is much easier said than done, And so Suberu
- 11:46says, we don't need to kill all three, just one should be enough.
- 11:50That bastard has been making his doubles fight while he hangs around up there
- 11:54watching what do you think it's doing? I don't know what it's doing.
- 11:58Maybe it's taken a bathroom break or something. Who knows. And Krush looks
- 12:03up and she's like, is that the real one? And suber says it
- 12:07won't descend because it knows it can't let itself get killed. Maybe, and
- 12:11Cruse says, but I can't rely on my sword to hit it from this
- 12:15distance. If I had one strike, it might be possible, and super
- 12:18is like, I have a plan, but it's a little bit too much
- 12:22of a wager. Do you want it? And then there's like a little
- 12:26break from their conversation, and we see people, including Wilhelm being healed and
- 12:33like one of the grounded whales like screaming and all that stuff that the whales
- 12:37do when they're being killed, and then we cut back to Krush and super
- 12:41un Ram, and Krush says, I think you're insane, and Suber is
- 12:46like, we're already kind of insane for trying to take on that huge thing
- 12:50in the first place, and Krush like pauses and it's like, perhaps,
- 12:56no, you're right, that goes for everyone here right now. Will hold
- 13:00off the Doubles. I'll take your wager. And she reaches out her fist
- 13:03and they fist bump. Yay. I think that's like the second fist bump
- 13:07we've had in this series. Yay. I don't know why that makes me
- 13:11happy. And the Doubles are like back in the sky at this point,
- 13:16and they are coming for the people again, and they're like coming right at
- 13:22the Knights and all the injured people, and they like really want to run,
- 13:24but they don't for some reason. And one of them like blasts fog
- 13:28at them, and just before it hits and kills everybody, Crush like jumps
- 13:33in and she like slashes the fog away. Yeah, and the force I
- 13:39guess of her sword hitting the fog is like real, real intense, and
- 13:43it knocks her over and then she gets up slowly, and one of the
- 13:46knights is like crush Samma, and Krush takes a deep breath and says,
- 13:52stand up, lift your faces, take up your weapons. Look at that
- 13:56boy, I guess about super He's so weak and fragile that just a breath
- 14:01could blow him away. And he's unarmed. He's a powerless boy whose defeat
- 14:07I've seen with my own eyes. He's weaker than anyone here ouch, Yet
- 14:16he's shouting louder than anyone. We can still do this. So how can
- 14:20we sit here with downcast gazes if our weakest man hasn't give up? How
- 14:24is Neeli in defeat acceptable? And the whale approaches again, readying its fog,
- 14:31and Khrush raises her sword and says, did you come all this way
- 14:37to wallow and shame? And before she can use her sword, someone like
- 14:41tosses a mace at the whale and it hits it, and she looks back
- 14:45in astonishment, and it's one of her men, yay, And then they
- 14:48all start like readying their weapons because they were inspired and they're gonna fight,
- 14:54yeah, And Krush smiles and like slashes at it, and Khrush takes a
- 15:00deep breath and says follow me, and the men are like yeah, and
- 15:03then they run at it and light cannons are like firing and they knock it
- 15:09off balance and Subaru, who's watching this as they are traveling on the ground
- 15:15dragon, it is like she has some nerve, calling me a weakling and
- 15:18a loser. Let's do this, m time for the climax, and Ram's
- 15:22like right, And at this point they're at the base of that gigantic tree
- 15:28and like, not on the ground dragon anymore, and rem says all humor
- 15:33and she makes like a big ice like dagger thing in the air, like
- 15:39a really big one, and she's like please, and she sends it off
- 15:43and it like misses the whale by like an inch, and Krush looks up
- 15:50and is like, I'm counting on you, and I'm just like I think
- 15:54it missed. And then we hear Super who say, now that I can
- 15:58see you up close, you really are creepy. Oh my god. Super
- 16:00is on the whale. The piece of ice was to transport him to the
- 16:04whale for some reason, So we stand in there on the whale's horn and
- 16:10he's in this like really classic Gaynax slash studio Trayer pose, you know the
- 16:15one where like the characters standing up and their arms are folded and they look
- 16:18like really really tough. Yeah, that's an awesome pose. Well, he's
- 16:22doing that, and he says, try to keep up with me, just
- 16:26so you know, I'm infamous for being so annoying that no one can ignore
- 16:29me. Okay, let's do this, and then he like jumps off the
- 16:33whale and I'm just like what, And he is falling and looking back up
- 16:38at the whale and going, I'm doing you a huge favor. Listen up
- 16:42because of you, Rem died and I had to experience a horrible trauma.
- 16:47And then he and everything else freeze and a shadowy woman's profile creeps next to
- 16:53his face and then the dark hand goes into his chest and grabs his heart
- 17:00and then he gasps and he's like I made it back, but he's still
- 17:03falling, and the whale, like I guess smells him more now and starts
- 17:07heading for him with its mouth open ready to like chomp him up. And
- 17:11Super is like rem and Ram's like got it, and she releases another ice
- 17:15dagger and it like spears the whale like through its mouth like through it's kind
- 17:19of like lower soft pallady area and then out the other side ouch, that
- 17:25would be very painful. And then she catches Subru with the chain from her
- 17:30mace and pulls him down towards her like really really fast, and he lands
- 17:33with his head on her breasts and she smiles and Suber is like, you
- 17:40saved me, and I believe at this point wherem says, gotcha's samma,
- 17:45which means like thanks for the delicious meal, which I thought was hilarious actually,
- 17:49and Suber is just like what I love that. I love that it's
- 17:55totally one sided, and Suber is just in the battle and rem is like
- 17:59super attracted to Suber or whatever, doesn't matter anyway. The white whale like
- 18:04crashes into the ground maybe or it's doing the thing where it's like kind of
- 18:08eating the ground as it goes along. That looks like it would be really
- 18:11painful, and Suber is like, don't let me down. Patrasie, which
- 18:15is the dragon. Remember you're a dragon, aren't you. Yes, it
- 18:18is, show me how awesome you are. And Patrasie roars and like speeds
- 18:22up and it's like coming right at him, and Suber's like, take this
- 18:26and then Crush says fire and all of these explosions go off, but they
- 18:30don't hit the whale. They hit around the giant tree and the tree starts
- 18:37to fall. Oh my god, and it's falling and the whale is passing
- 18:42right under where the tree is falling, and the tree like falls and crushes
- 18:47the whale. Yeah. So, like the moral is that they were using
- 18:52really small weapons. It's like, if a bug was trying to kill me
- 18:56with a bug size sword, it's not gonna work. You need a big
- 19:00thing like a tree to drop on me to kill me. So the whale
- 19:06is beneath the giant tree trunk. Sure they had to kill the tree to
- 19:10do this, and that sucks, but whatever. And there's flower petals everywhere,
- 19:15and it looks like the sun is slowly coming up. It's not that
- 19:18dark anymore. And Wilhelm is standing in front of the whale with his sword,
- 19:23and then we have a flashback of like a palace of sorts and Teresa
- 19:30is standing like on like a stage type thing in the palace and she has
- 19:34her sword and she looks up and she sees Wilhelm approaching her, and he's
- 19:41like wearing like this black cloak with like a hood and he looks like super
- 19:45super edgy, and then we cut back to now and he's approaching the whale,
- 19:51and then we're back to the past and they look at each other and
- 19:55he unsheathes his sword, and then now he also unsheathes his sword, and
- 20:00he says, this is for my wife, Teresia von Austria, and then
- 20:04he runs at the whale like screaming because that's what he does, and he
- 20:10like slashes it, and then we go back and forth between the past Wilhelm
- 20:15and the President Wilhelm, and in the past like him and Teresa are in
- 20:18a sword fight, and then there's also like memories of them together from like
- 20:22the last episode and stuff. And then finally he has his sword at her
- 20:29throat and she is disarmed, like her sword falls, and he says,
- 20:36I win as a weaker swordsman, you no longer have a reason to hold
- 20:40a sword, really, so there can only be one swords person in the
- 20:44whole world. And Teresa says, if I don't hold it, who will,
- 20:48And Wilhelm's like, I'll inherit your reason for wielding the sword, and
- 20:52he takes down his said and he's like, you need but become my reason
- 20:56for wielding it, and Theresa looks shocked, but then she smiles and says,
- 21:03hey, do you like flowers? And Wilhelm says I don't hate them
- 21:07anymore. And Teresa's like, why do you wield that sword? And Willhelm
- 21:14pulls her to him and says, to protect you, and then they kiss.
- 21:19Okay, yeah, and Teresa's like, do you love me? And
- 21:25Willhelm looks away and he's like, you already know that, and Teresa says,
- 21:30I still want to hear you say it sometimes. Will Helm looks kind
- 21:36of inconvenienced and he's like, okay, someday when I feel like it,
- 21:41and then they kiss. Yeah. I didn't like that. I don't know
- 21:45why he had to be better than her at the sword art thing. Yeah,
- 21:53the whole thing makes me uncomfortable. Sorry, but at least they're happy,
- 21:56I guess. So then we're back to now and Willhelm cuts the whale
- 22:02and he's standing on top of it and he raises his sword like he's already
- 22:07cut it a lot, but maybe this is gonna be the best cut,
- 22:10and the whale like looks up at him with his one remaining eye, and
- 22:14he looks like so afraid, and I just want to tell him it's gonna
- 22:17be okay, but it's not. And then Wilhelm goes sleep for all eternity,
- 22:22and he delivers the final blow, and then the other two whales like
- 22:26disappear and the sun starts to come up, and Wilhelm says, it's finished,
- 22:33Teresia at last, Teresia eye, and he puts his hand over his
- 22:38face and he says, I love you. Took you long enough, and
- 22:42now she can't hear it. So then Crush to everyone is like the white
- 22:47whale has fallen. The mob beast of Fog, which has terrorized the world
- 22:52for four centuries, has been defeated by Wilhelm von Austria. And then everybody
- 22:56cheers, and I'm just like, uh, all he did was like deliver
- 23:02the final blow when it was already crushed. Guys, but sure, and
- 23:07Cruse says, we have won this battle. And then I guess a little
- 23:11while later, Suber is off by himself looking at the sunset, and Crush
- 23:18walks over and asks him if he's okay, and Suber is like, somehow
- 23:22or another, I'm glad you're safe too, and Cruse says, I am,
- 23:26but our losses were not few. With the white Whales's defeat, the
- 23:30ones who vanished will not return. And we kind of cut to see a
- 23:36bunch of dead bodies lying on the ground that are like covered and stuff,
- 23:38so we know they're dead. And Suber says, I think you did great.
- 23:44Your popularity should go through the Wait did I just give you a boost
- 23:48in the Royal selection that I shouldn't have? And cruseh is like, that's
- 23:52quite a gloomy look on your face. You don't look like the hero who
- 23:55just brought down the white whale. And Suber is like, the first thing
- 24:00A million times gonna do is call me a traitor, and then he stops
- 24:03and he's like, wait, what did you call me? And Crush says
- 24:07the hero who brought down the white whale? I wouldn't wish to be shameless
- 24:11enough to claim your achievement as my own. Super is like, oh no,
- 24:15I mean I really didn't do anything, and Krush just kind of smiles
- 24:18and Super like this kind of sighs and it's like, it sounds like your
- 24:22opinion of me has improved a lot. I'm surprised, and Krush says,
- 24:26there's no cause for modesty. In truth, I would love to welcome you
- 24:30into my household and reward your accomplishments, and Suber says, please don't ask
- 24:37that of me. It isn't about loyalty or allegiance, but my faith already
- 24:41lies where it should. I'll make Amelia the ruler, not for anyone else.
- 24:45It's simply what I want to do. And Khrush smiles and says I
- 24:51was already aware of that, but it still stings a bit, and Suber
- 24:53says, Honestly, I think you're an amazing person. If i'd been on
- 24:59my own, I'm pretty sure i'd have accepted your offer. I'll be counting
- 25:02on you to uphold our alliance, even if we end up his enemies.
- 25:06I believe we can get along until then. And he holds out his hand
- 25:11and Crucius like Natski Subaru, let me correct one idea you have. Even
- 25:17if we do find ourselves in conflict one day, I'll remain friendly towards you.
- 25:21Even if a day comes where we must settle things, I shall not
- 25:23forget the dead I've incurred on this day. Therefore, even if we do
- 25:29become enemies, I'll respect you and show you favor until the end. Feel
- 25:33like that was wordier than necessary, but okay, and Suberu smiles and says,
- 25:40if I didn't already have a number one and number two in my heart,
- 25:42that would have been a close call. And Cruse is like, I
- 25:45haven't gone so far as to think of you the way a woman might.
- 25:49I don't deny that there were occasions on which my heartstrings felt the pull,
- 25:55but my heart lies at the end of my dream. And then they shake
- 25:57hands and Crush says, now I have to leave and take her wounded and
- 26:03the White Whales targets back to the capitol. But it would appear that you
- 26:06still have a duty to attend to and Suber is like, yeah, it
- 26:10may sound rude, but in a sense, that's what this whole whale hunt
- 26:12was about. And Crush is like, oh, subjugating the white whale was
- 26:18secondary, intriguing. Do you require assistance? And Suber is like, I
- 26:22do, but frankly, I didn't expect that the hunt would exact this kind
- 26:26of toll. And he's looking at the injured and then he says on top
- 26:32of and then Willhelm cuts him off and says, in that case, why
- 26:37not make use of this old man? And then he kneels before Subaru and
- 26:40says, natzki, subaru dono with this subjugation. It was because of you
- 26:45that I was able to carry out my reason for living all this time.
- 26:48I thank you. I thank you with all that I am. Suber looks
- 26:52maybe a little confused, and he smiles awkwardly and is like, it was
- 26:59your strength that may this possible. I don't think so. I think he
- 27:02got eaten by a whale, but whatever, and he continues the reason I
- 27:07thought to defeat the white whale and could fight without giving up. I don't
- 27:10know if it's okay to say it like this, but congratulations and thank you
- 27:15for your service. I believe you were able to do this because you loved
- 27:18your wife like crazy. And Wilhelm says thank you, and then he stands
- 27:25and Cruse's like, you should hold onto that treasured sword for a while in
- 27:29the days to come, being unarmful, do you know good? And will
- 27:32Helm says, yes, my lady, thank you, and Cruse says,
- 27:37take Felix and half of the uninjured. That should be about twenty and Suer
- 27:41asks her if she's sure, and she says I told you I do not
- 27:47wish to be shameless and that I would respect you, and Subru looks like
- 27:51he's gonna kind of cry at this, and he bows and says thank you.
- 27:55Next we see Felix, Subaru, and Ram all sitting in the grass
- 28:00and Felix says, why you can't move right? And Rem looks really concerned,
- 28:06and Felix is like, as a user of healing magic, I can't
- 28:08let you push yourself any further. You have to stay behind, and REM's
- 28:14like but and then like she falls onto Super's chest and Super is like,
- 28:18hey, be careful, please obey Felix and don't overdo it, and Rahm's
- 28:23like, I shall not. It hurts too much. I can't bear it
- 28:27when you're in trouble. I want to be the one there to reach out
- 28:30to you. That's all I want, So please fucked I like Rem,
- 28:34and Super stops her and is like, in that case, you don't have
- 28:38to worry, and he grabs her hand and says, you've already saved me
- 28:44so many times. Don't you realize how much you've done for me up till
- 28:48now. I want you to help me from now on too, So this
- 28:52time, leave everything to me. And Rem has like tears in her eyes
- 28:56and she's like, after this, you'll still keep me by yourself, and
- 29:00Suber is like, I'm the one who should beg you for that. Rem
- 29:03smiles and touches his lips with her finger and like everything kind of like looks
- 29:10sparkly for a minute, and she's like, I'll take that as a promise.
- 29:14You can't back out now. Super looks a little surprised, and Rem
- 29:18is like blushing, like really really hard, and Suber says, don't worry.
- 29:22I'll find a way to take care of everything. I'm your hero.
- 29:26I've decided to take the first step. But you don't have to worry,
- 29:29and he winks and says, I managed to pull off the white Whale hunt
- 29:33right now, your hero is fanatical like a demon. Ah, they should
- 29:38get married at that. Of course, Rem starts to cry and Suberu hugs
- 29:44her and Rem is like, okay, my hero is the greatest in the
- 29:48whole world. Aw. Next we see the troops that are heading back to
- 29:52the Capitol moving out, and that includes Rem and Cruche and Hetaro and and
- 30:00the people who are staying are still at the tree area and Ricardo is like,
- 30:04man, you really got all the good parts back there, you know,
- 30:08And Mimi's like, Captain, MEMI too, MEMI too. I did
- 30:11super good And Subaru says to Ricardo, didn't you almost die? And then
- 30:17he looks at me me and he's like, also, your brother was exhausted.
- 30:22How do you still have so much energy? And Mimi says, Tetara's
- 30:26just a baby. He's weak, really so pathetic, and then Ricardo says,
- 30:30later in the battle with the White Whale, I didn't get to do
- 30:33much, but don't you worry. My lady asked me for a favor after
- 30:36all. In the real battle coming up, I'll show you what I got.
- 30:40And Suber's like, the real battle, what are you talking about?
- 30:45And Ricardo says, you're taking on the Witch's cold, right. Suberu looks
- 30:49really surprised, and Ricardo's like, never underestimate the Merchant Information network. And
- 30:55then he looks over and he's like, oh, hey, here they come.
- 30:57And Subro looks to the side and see some of the Hohino group like
- 31:02approaching. Ricardo says that that's half of the Mercenary team, and Suber's really
- 31:08confused and Ricardo says that like they had only been fighting at half strength.
- 31:12The other half was sent to block the road, so that I guess nobody
- 31:17came and got in trouble with the White Whale. And Suber's like, they're
- 31:21gonna help too, who's leading them? And Mimi says, my younger brother,
- 31:25Tivvy, and Suber's like, you have another younger brother. I'm curious
- 31:30to see if he's more like you are, Hititaro. And Subro looks at
- 31:33the party that's arriving again and he sees that riding out in front is his
- 31:38old nemesids Julian. It's not really a nemesis, but that's how he feels,
- 31:45and he snarls and he thinks, why is he with them? And
- 31:49then we go to the title card and that's it. So he's probably with
- 31:55them because he's Anastasa's nights and he would be an asset. Superu, you
- 32:00need to get over yourself. But other than that, I liked this episode.
- 32:06I really liked the conclusion being that they killed the tree that sucks and
- 32:12dropped it on the White Whale, Like I can't even imagine how else they
- 32:16would have killed the thing, because it's giant. It's like bigger than houses
- 32:21and things, and it can just chomp them up. And it's like,
- 32:24like I said earlier, it's like having a bug fight. You you need
- 32:29something big and heavy to drop on it. So I thought that that was
- 32:32really cool. I'm glad that it was Super's idea and he showed he can
- 32:37be useful. And yeah, I mean, besides that, like, there
- 32:40aren't any real developments in this episode except that Rem is super adorable and I
- 32:45wish Super loved Rem instead of Amelia right now, even though Amelia is good
- 32:51too, I'm just really really liking Rem. So yeah, I don't know
- 32:58next episode obviously, I guess we're gonna start seeing what happens with the Witches
- 33:04called again now that we have this side quest done, so that should be
- 33:08interesting. I hope that Subaru can get over his anger towards his nemesis,
- 33:15and yeah, that's pretty much it. Though not much to really analyze this
- 33:20time, not that I really analyze things. I don't know what I'm saying,
- 33:24but what I did want to say is that this is probably the last
- 33:29episode of the year. I assume. I think like it probably comes out
- 33:34on the twenty seventh, so that should be it. No more year,
- 33:37yay. I guess I don't know. So thanks for being here. And
- 33:45I hope you have a really really good New Year and that it's better than
- 33:49this year. Even if you had a really good this year, I hope
- 33:52next year is better. And if you had a really bad this year,
- 33:54I hope next year is better too. Yeah, it doesn't matter who you
- 33:59are. I hope you have a good year. I guess, so yeah,
- 34:02thank you again for listening. I think I just said that. And
- 34:07I will see you in the new year, or you'll hear me or something.
- 34:12See ya, bye bye,
