Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Hey, it's your person, Michelle. I guess I'm back, and
- 0:05Speaker 1: I think maybe I solved the issues with the microphone
- 0:10Speaker 1: and interface that I've been having, So maybe it's gonna
- 0:12Speaker 1: sound better this week if it didn't sound good last week.
- 0:16Speaker 1: At least, I hope that's what happens. If not, I'm sorry,
- 0:20Speaker 1: and you can you can tell me that I still
- 0:22Speaker 1: sound bad. Not that you did before, but you could,
- 0:27Speaker 1: and I would understand. Anyway, We're gonna talk about Dorjidoro
- 0:33Speaker 1: episode seven today, which is what we're supposed to do,
- 0:37Speaker 1: so that's good. I'm just gonna get right into it
- 0:39Speaker 1: because there is some stuff I want to discuss, but
- 0:41Speaker 1: we have to watch the episode to get to it obviously,
- 0:45Speaker 1: so yeah, let's just get into it. So episode seven
- 0:49Speaker 1: is called the All Star and then like a Star
- 0:52Speaker 1: dream game. Woo. That's a thing, and maybe we'll find
- 0:56Speaker 1: out what that means. Yeah, So, as you can tell
- 0:59Speaker 1: from the title, we're just doing like one chapter basically
- 1:04Speaker 1: in this instead of multiple ones, because you know how
- 1:06Speaker 1: they do the thing where they just put all the
- 1:09Speaker 1: chapter titles in and make it one big episode title,
- 1:11Speaker 1: which is weird anyway. So that's that's something Anyway, if
- 1:16Speaker 1: you remember from the end of last episode, we were
- 1:21Speaker 1: dealing with that whole thing with that homeless guy like
- 1:25Speaker 1: getting killed by Kimon after he abducted ny Kaido for
- 1:29Speaker 1: her black gems. That might be poop, but we don't
- 1:33Speaker 1: really know. Then it got really really really sad for
- 1:37Speaker 1: some reason, so this episode doesn't start there. So we
- 1:41Speaker 1: start the episode kind of looking up through the trees
- 1:44Speaker 1: at the sky and there's a statue of a devil
- 1:47Speaker 1: or maybe a skeleton holding an orb it's like a
- 1:49Speaker 1: stone statue. And also there's like a crow sitting on
- 1:52Speaker 1: some steaks, and this like small round stone building with
- 1:57Speaker 1: an upside down cross on the top of the roof.
- 2:00Speaker 1: Like sunlight is kind of streaming through behind everything the
- 2:04Speaker 1: crow caused because that's the sound that they make. Then
- 2:07Speaker 1: we see Ebbi Sue like running and she's like graveyard, graveyard, graveyard,
- 2:12Speaker 1: just constantly over and over again. So this is probably
- 2:15Speaker 1: a graveyard. Yeah, And there's lots of graves, and you know,
- 2:19Speaker 1: headstones everywhere, and all of the headstones have like a
- 2:23Speaker 1: kind of large stone egg shape thing on top of them,
- 2:27Speaker 1: and then on top of that is an upside down cross. Yeay,
- 2:32Speaker 1: So I guess we're probably in the sorce of a world.
- 2:35Speaker 1: I mean, we just saw Ebby suit too, so we're
- 2:37Speaker 1: definitely in the source of a world. It seems like
- 2:39Speaker 1: a pretty nice cemetery. It's really wooded and looks well maintained,
- 2:43Speaker 1: so that's good. The camera pans to the left like
- 2:47Speaker 1: a ton and we see Fujita standing in front of
- 2:51Speaker 1: a grave and the egg on top of the headstone
- 2:55Speaker 1: has a crown of pink flowers on it, and on
- 2:58Speaker 1: the ground in front of it there's like a of
- 3:00Speaker 1: white flowers and some like small cups with like candles
- 3:04Speaker 1: in them, like someone had been lighting them, but they're
- 3:06Speaker 1: not lit right now. We hear Fujita say Matsumura, I
- 3:11Speaker 1: brought you your favorite hot dog. He leans down and
- 3:14Speaker 1: sets like a paper bag that says hot dog. I
- 3:18Speaker 1: think on it down on the ground. Ebbi Sue walks
- 3:21Speaker 1: over and is like, is his coffin filled with maggots?
- 3:26Speaker 1: I mean probably? She starts to pick her nose. Fujita
- 3:29Speaker 1: is like, Matsumura's body isn't here. If it were, Kikarage
- 3:33Speaker 1: could have revived him. We get a flashback to kim
- 3:37Speaker 1: in like dicing up Matsumura into like a bloody explosion,
- 3:40Speaker 1: and we hear Fujita say Matsumura was torn to shreds
- 3:44Speaker 1: by the lizard guy but still managed to save me.
- 3:47Speaker 1: He starts to like tear up. Ebbi sue very dramatically,
- 3:51Speaker 1: is like, I will die protecting you. At this point,
- 3:55Speaker 1: one of those kind of guard guys who are probably
- 3:57Speaker 1: more like lackeys of some sort, but I'm gonna keep
- 3:59Speaker 1: calling the guards walks over and he's like, Ebisusan the
- 4:03Speaker 1: boss wants to see you. Ebisu's like, what does he want?
- 4:08Speaker 1: We cut to end on a green background, like a
- 4:11Speaker 1: solid green background, and he's really close up, like all
- 4:15Speaker 1: we can see is like his head and that his
- 4:16Speaker 1: right arm is raised basically, and he says, the owner
- 4:20Speaker 1: of the smoke shop downtown was killed the other day.
- 4:22Speaker 1: The camera zoom is out and we see that he
- 4:24Speaker 1: is standing in front of like a piece of green
- 4:27Speaker 1: fabric posing with his right hand up and his left
- 4:30Speaker 1: one on his hip and his right leg like partially
- 4:33Speaker 1: up on a box. He looks so ridiculous, and the
- 4:36Speaker 1: only thing he's wearing is like a piece of blue
- 4:38Speaker 1: fabric that's like draped around his waist. Some guy is
- 4:41Speaker 1: off to the side like painting him and like, this
- 4:44Speaker 1: giant looks like maybe oil painting. It's actually really nice.
- 4:47Speaker 1: I like it a lot, kind of impressionist a little
- 4:51Speaker 1: Besides that, Ebbi Sue is also posing just for fun
- 4:55Speaker 1: in front of him now and Shin Noi, Fujita and
- 4:58Speaker 1: Kiko Age are also there. The artist is like, please move,
- 5:02Speaker 1: Ebi sousan and continues, I bought the shop and found
- 5:06Speaker 1: something quite interesting. Shin takes a small glass bottle like
- 5:10Speaker 1: out of his jacket and holds it up and he's like,
- 5:12Speaker 1: here it is. It's Ebisu's smoke. Fujitas like Ebisu's smoke. Yes.
- 5:18Speaker 1: Noi is like looking at something on a clipboard and says, Ebisu,
- 5:22Speaker 1: your name's also on the client list. She flips the page.
- 5:26Speaker 1: Seems like you sold your smoke pretty often. I'm wondering
- 5:28Speaker 1: if this is like selling blood or plasma. I'm not
- 5:31Speaker 1: really sure. Fujita is like, yet no one would buy mine.
- 5:36Speaker 1: He lets out an exasperated sigh and slumps over. Two
- 5:39Speaker 1: of those guard guys come over and they put a
- 5:41Speaker 1: robe on En, and En says, I'm going to have
- 5:44Speaker 1: that smoke. Examined. Fujita gasps and then puts his hand
- 5:48Speaker 1: on Ebisu's shoulder so we'll finally find out what Ebisu's
- 5:52Speaker 1: magic is and sits down in a red armchair and says, Fujita,
- 5:57Speaker 1: about your new partner. Fujita looks over like release and
- 6:01Speaker 1: takes a glass of wine from a tray that a
- 6:03Speaker 1: guard is like holding up to him and continues, I
- 6:06Speaker 1: tried to recruit one far and wide, but not a
- 6:09Speaker 1: single person applied. Fuck. Fujita lets out like a slow,
- 6:14Speaker 1: sad sigh, and Ebi Su says, wow, nobody wants you.
- 6:19Speaker 1: Noi pats him on the back and says, hey, cheer up.
- 6:23Speaker 1: There are lots of ways to find a partner. I mean,
- 6:25Speaker 1: I guess you could just kidnap one like and tried
- 6:27Speaker 1: to do. Fujita kind of chuckles and like starts to
- 6:31Speaker 1: just walk away and says that doesn't matter to me anyway.
- 6:35Speaker 1: He walks out of the room like all slumped over,
- 6:39Speaker 1: and Ebbi Sue like skips after him and is like,
- 6:41Speaker 1: nobody wants this guy. Thanks. Ebi Sue NOI's like, poor guy,
- 6:47Speaker 1: and who is now getting his shoulders massage, says you too,
- 6:51Speaker 1: hurry up and find Risu since like how and says
- 6:55Speaker 1: there's a transmitter on him. We now see that room
- 6:59Speaker 1: that has all those doors in it, remember that we
- 7:01Speaker 1: saw in like episode one or whatever. We kind of
- 7:04Speaker 1: pan down. There's like one of those guards in front
- 7:06Speaker 1: of the doors, and he yawns and he's like, I'm
- 7:09Speaker 1: so bored. Fujita and Ebisu walk up and Fujia just
- 7:12Speaker 1: like open the door. We hear the door opening, and
- 7:15Speaker 1: Ebisu's like, what are you gonna do. Fujita says, I'm
- 7:19Speaker 1: going to the hold of Butcher that lizard guy, see Ebisu.
- 7:22Speaker 1: He starts to walk through the doorway. Ebisu watches him
- 7:25Speaker 1: as he walks through the doorway in slow motion and
- 7:29Speaker 1: the door begins to close, and then she just runs
- 7:32Speaker 1: for it and jumps through it. The last second. Fujita's like,
- 7:35Speaker 1: you idiot, why'd you follow me? Ebisu doesn't respond and
- 7:39Speaker 1: the door disappears behind them, and Fujita just puts his
- 7:42Speaker 1: hand on his head and side, we're disguising ourselves as humans,
- 7:46Speaker 1: masks off. He takes his off. Ebisu's like disguising ourselves. Fujita,
- 7:52Speaker 1: I guess took off his backpack and is now rummaging
- 7:54Speaker 1: through it and says, we'll get closer to them that way.
- 7:57Speaker 1: He takes a semi automatic pistol out of his bag,
- 8:00Speaker 1: just like a black one, and it's like, and then
- 8:02Speaker 1: I'll bust that scalely guy's head with this. Yeah, but
- 8:06Speaker 1: also if you can't kill him my cutting off his head,
- 8:09Speaker 1: I don't think this is gonna work. Then he's like
- 8:11Speaker 1: here and he tosses Ebisue something. She catches it, and
- 8:15Speaker 1: it's a white T shirt that reads eye and then
- 8:17Speaker 1: a heart and then a whole. Yeah, I don't. I
- 8:21Speaker 1: think if it said I love the hole, we work
- 8:24Speaker 1: a little better. But it says I love whole. And
- 8:27Speaker 1: this is in English, by the way, so yeah, I'm
- 8:29Speaker 1: a little bit iffy on that. Anyway, Ebi SU's like tacky, yes,
- 8:34Speaker 1: very much. So Fuji says, like, the question is how
- 8:37Speaker 1: do we get close to the lizard guy? Something catches
- 8:40Speaker 1: his eye and he like turns to look at it,
- 8:41Speaker 1: and it's a flyer for the sharks. I guess because
- 8:46Speaker 1: there's two cartoon sharks on it, and one has a
- 8:49Speaker 1: baseball bat and the other has a glove, so it's
- 8:51Speaker 1: probably baseball. And there's a lot of words on it,
- 8:55Speaker 1: but we don't get most of those translated, except that
- 8:57Speaker 1: it says pitcher and mascot wanted. Oh they're two people,
- 9:01Speaker 1: and whoever this is looking for two people? Perfect, And
- 9:04Speaker 1: he notices at the bottom Kymon's name is on it,
- 9:07Speaker 1: and he's like, that's it, and we go the opening theme. Yay.
- 9:13Speaker 1: Back from the opening, we see the hungry bug sign
- 9:16Speaker 1: outside and then a gyoza being held up by chopsticks,
- 9:20Speaker 1: and we hear Kymen say kyosa giosa, oh, bug giosa.
- 9:24Speaker 1: I don't think he's singing it exactly that way, but
- 9:27Speaker 1: he is singing it. He kind of chuckles and then
- 9:30Speaker 1: puts it in his mouth and he's like, delicious. I
- 9:33Speaker 1: wish I had some gioza. Nikaido is working in the
- 9:37Speaker 1: kitchen and she laughs and she's like, I'm glad. She
- 9:40Speaker 1: pours some water like on some giosa that I think
- 9:43Speaker 1: are like in this little pressy thing. Maybe they're frying.
- 9:45Speaker 1: I don't really know what this is, and is like,
- 9:48Speaker 1: I'll keep them coming, so eat up. Kymon, who also
- 9:51Speaker 1: has a mug of beer, says, yeah, it's not like
- 9:53Speaker 1: you have any other customers. He eats another giosa, like really, happily,
- 9:57Speaker 1: and Nikaido's like, you're not a customer if you don't
- 10:00Speaker 1: hey at that. They hear like the bell over the
- 10:03Speaker 1: door ring and the door open, and they look over
- 10:06Speaker 1: and there's this guy with like pointy teeth and like
- 10:10Speaker 1: red like painted marks, like two lines on each cheek
- 10:13Speaker 1: on his face, and he's got some sort of like
- 10:16Speaker 1: weird black hat with flaps on it, so you can't
- 10:19Speaker 1: really see his hair, but I'll tell you that he
- 10:21Speaker 1: has like shortish blonde hair because we'll see his hair later,
- 10:26Speaker 1: so you might as well just note now. Anyway, he's
- 10:28Speaker 1: wearing this black jacket with like massive spikes on the shoulders.
- 10:32Speaker 1: Thirteen also, by the way, has like really pointing nails.
- 10:35Speaker 1: I just really like his character design. I really like thirteen. Anyway,
- 10:39Speaker 1: he says oba gioza please, and he sits like at
- 10:42Speaker 1: the counter. We get a close up on Kiman's eye
- 10:46Speaker 1: looking over at him, and he's like, my gioza thirteen two.
- 10:50Speaker 1: Nikaido says, I was worried because you were closed for
- 10:52Speaker 1: a while. He kind of chuckles, I need hungry Bugskioza
- 10:55Speaker 1: to get me through the day. He is very clearly
- 10:58Speaker 1: hitting on her. Nikaida's like, gee, thanks, and sets down
- 11:02Speaker 1: a glass of water like in front of him on
- 11:03Speaker 1: the counter, and he says, I want to see your
- 11:06Speaker 1: pretty face every day too, see hitting on her. Nikkaido laughs.
- 11:10Speaker 1: Kimon to himself says, what's up with that creep? The
- 11:14Speaker 1: door opens again and Kymon looks over and Vox is there. Oh,
- 11:18Speaker 1: by the way, I'm not pronouncing it Vo anymore because
- 11:21Speaker 1: in this episode I heard someone clearly say Fox. So really,
- 11:25Speaker 1: I don't know how to pronounce this name. So we're
- 11:26Speaker 1: doing Vox again now, Sorry, guys. Fox walks in and
- 11:31Speaker 1: sits down in the same booth as Kimen, like across
- 11:33Speaker 1: from him. Nikido walks over and sets down a cup
- 11:36Speaker 1: of water for Fox, and she's like, yo, Doc, will
- 11:38Speaker 1: let be? Fox says beer and sausages and he lights
- 11:42Speaker 1: a cigarette. Kymon's like, what's wrong, Doc? I don't know
- 11:46Speaker 1: what made him think something was wrong, but he does anyway.
- 11:50Speaker 1: Vox says I can't find a ninth member for tomorrow's
- 11:53Speaker 1: baseball game. Kimon's like, you got Nikaido in me, We
- 11:57Speaker 1: don't need a full team kind of laughs, starts to
- 12:00Speaker 1: look kind of pissed off, and he's like, you need
- 12:02Speaker 1: nine people to play okay. He makes a sad noise
- 12:05Speaker 1: and covers his head with his hands. We're gonna lose
- 12:07Speaker 1: to the piece sharks. Thirteen kind of turns to listen,
- 12:11Speaker 1: and he is also smoking, because I guess why not.
- 12:15Speaker 1: Fox continues, and I was streaming of crushing those cocky bastards.
- 12:19Speaker 1: We hear thirteen say I'll be your ninth. They all
- 12:23Speaker 1: look over at him, kind of surprised. Thirteen smiles. We
- 12:26Speaker 1: cut to like a decent sized blue building that has
- 12:29Speaker 1: like bars and chain links over the windows and has
- 12:32Speaker 1: a big sign that says whole Peace Hospital. All right,
- 12:36Speaker 1: so p sharks got it. Fujita and Ebby Suit were
- 12:38Speaker 1: standing out in front of it, looking up at it,
- 12:40Speaker 1: and Fujida says, here it is. He's wearing a gray
- 12:43Speaker 1: hoodie with like the hood up. Ebi Suit looks kind
- 12:46Speaker 1: of pissed, and she has like a red knitted hat
- 12:50Speaker 1: on with like a purple pom pom on it, just
- 12:53Speaker 1: so you know. Fujida says, you better keep your mouth shut.
- 12:56Speaker 1: Ebisu's like, I don't speak to humans. They both walk
- 13:00Speaker 1: towards the door. Fujita says, I think into an intercom.
- 13:04Speaker 1: Excuse me, I saw your poster about recruiting new members.
- 13:08Speaker 1: The door opens and this kind of balding, older man
- 13:11Speaker 1: with you know, whitish hair and glasses who looks like
- 13:15Speaker 1: a doctor maybe walks out. It's important to note here
- 13:18Speaker 1: that he has three syringes just like sticking out of
- 13:21Speaker 1: the top of his head, and they do not explain
- 13:24Speaker 1: it at all in the anime, but in the manga,
- 13:27Speaker 1: Fujita asks what's up with it, and he says they're
- 13:30Speaker 1: anabolic steroids and asks Fuji Da if you want some.
- 13:32Speaker 1: So not sure why that got cut, but it did anyway.
- 13:36Speaker 1: The guy says, oh, come on in. Inside there is
- 13:40Speaker 1: like an even older kind of doctor looking guy standing there,
- 13:44Speaker 1: just kind of shaking slightly, and the guy with the
- 13:46Speaker 1: syringes in his head says, coach, we got a new one. Coach,
- 13:50Speaker 1: who is the guy who is shaking and also has
- 13:53Speaker 1: a cane, says no moral geezers. Syringe guy to Fujita says,
- 13:58Speaker 1: can you pitch? Fuji is like, well, I guess, and
- 14:03Speaker 1: Ebisu's like and so Fujita lies. The coach raises his cane,
- 14:08Speaker 1: which we see is actually a baseball bat, and it's like,
- 14:12Speaker 1: then you're a piece shark. Now and then I noticed
- 14:15Speaker 1: that under their like doctor's coach, they're both wearing baseball
- 14:19Speaker 1: jerseys let's say sharks on them. They are white and
- 14:23Speaker 1: sharks is in like blue letters, I think, surrounded by
- 14:26Speaker 1: red or something. Yeah. Some other guy who isn't as
- 14:29Speaker 1: old comes over and puts his hand on Ebisu's shoulder
- 14:32Speaker 1: and leads her away and is like, you're coming with me.
- 14:35Speaker 1: Ebisu's like, I sense danger. Now. We see two guys
- 14:41Speaker 1: practicing baseball, like one of them is, you know, throwing
- 14:44Speaker 1: the ball and one of them is hitting it with
- 14:46Speaker 1: a bat in this other room. I don't know anything
- 14:49Speaker 1: about baseball guys. And the guy with the syringes in
- 14:52Speaker 1: his head walks in with Fujita and he's like, our
- 14:55Speaker 1: coach is the director of the hospital. The doctors here
- 14:58Speaker 1: make up the team. We're up against Central Hospital's word
- 15:01Speaker 1: for sorcery victims tomorrow. They are now standing in front
- 15:04Speaker 1: of some like green lockers in this practice room or whatever,
- 15:08Speaker 1: and he continues, the doctor there in our coach arrivals.
- 15:11Speaker 1: He opens a locker. Here's your uniform and gear. Fujita
- 15:15Speaker 1: has his hood down now and we actually see his
- 15:17Speaker 1: hair for the first time. It's really interesting. It has
- 15:20Speaker 1: these stripes, like you know, starting at the front and
- 15:24Speaker 1: going back, stripes of brown and gray. It's really interesting.
- 15:29Speaker 1: I don't know that I've ever seen anything quite like
- 15:32Speaker 1: this on an anime character. I kind of like it, though,
- 15:35Speaker 1: I kind of like Fuji DOA's look in general. Anyway,
- 15:37Speaker 1: Fujita says, the lizard guy's gonna be there right this
- 15:41Speaker 1: arrange guys like, yeah, you know Kimen. Fujita says, well, sorta.
- 15:46Speaker 1: We hear a voice say, here's our new mascot, Ny
- 15:49Speaker 1: Turn and Ebby Suit is wearing like this blue shark
- 15:52Speaker 1: costume and she starts to dance, and she says, chow
- 15:55Speaker 1: down on the skimpy bikini girls, Chump, chump, and she
- 15:58Speaker 1: pulls like a string that like opens and closes the
- 16:01Speaker 1: mouth of the shark that's like around her head. It's
- 16:03Speaker 1: really cute anyway. Then we see an exterior shot of
- 16:08Speaker 1: Central Hospital and we hear Kaimen like screaming, and then
- 16:13Speaker 1: we see him. He is in a hallway and he
- 16:15Speaker 1: like runs a little and then looks back and he's like,
- 16:17Speaker 1: why is Johnson here? Oh, Johnson is indeed standing there,
- 16:22Speaker 1: and Kasu Kabe and vox are next to him. Kasa
- 16:25Speaker 1: Kabe says he's part of the team. I'm controlling him
- 16:28Speaker 1: with electromagnetic waves that only bugs can detect. He learned
- 16:31Speaker 1: a word too. Kasu Kabe is like holding a remote
- 16:35Speaker 1: control and he presses something on it, and Johnson says,
- 16:39Speaker 1: shocking in English. Why that word? I don't know. Kaimen
- 16:44Speaker 1: looks kind of unimpressed or annoyed and just kind of sighs,
- 16:47Speaker 1: and then we hear someone say, yo, Kimen. Kaimen looks
- 16:51Speaker 1: over and there are these two dudes approaching, and this
- 16:54Speaker 1: one guy has like a mask on his face that
- 16:57Speaker 1: kind of almost looks like a hockey mask, and like,
- 17:01Speaker 1: I can't tell that the eyes on the mask or
- 17:03Speaker 1: his real eyes or not. They're just like little black,
- 17:07Speaker 1: kind of round circle things. But around his mouth is
- 17:11Speaker 1: open and his teeth are like these little points, Like
- 17:14Speaker 1: it looks like he has some sort of disease going
- 17:16Speaker 1: on that's just destroyed his teeth and I feel bad.
- 17:20Speaker 1: And the other guy has a beard and just a
- 17:23Speaker 1: green hat on and does not have any weird characteristics.
- 17:27Speaker 1: Kim In waves and is like, yo, it's been a while, kinks.
- 17:29Speaker 1: He high fives that mask guy and Zeus and he
- 17:32Speaker 1: shakes the other guy's hand. Zeus is like, we're here
- 17:35Speaker 1: to help old Vox. I'm pretty sure that Zeus is
- 17:39Speaker 1: his brother, Vox's brother, but they took that out of
- 17:42Speaker 1: the anime anyway. We hear Fox say, come on in, guys.
- 17:46Speaker 1: He is standing in front of a whiteboard with a
- 17:49Speaker 1: diagram of a baseball field on it and like all
- 17:51Speaker 1: their pictures on it with different like positions and stuff,
- 17:54Speaker 1: and he says, here's your positions for tomorrow. Everyone else
- 17:58Speaker 1: is sitting on folding chairs like around him and the board,
- 18:01Speaker 1: except for Johnson, who is standing. I guess Andy. Kaido says,
- 18:06Speaker 1: who's on third base? Yeah, there's just like a question
- 18:09Speaker 1: mark for third base. I think. Kosakabe says, I'll have
- 18:13Speaker 1: him ready by tomorrow. Thirteen laughs. I can't wait to
- 18:16Speaker 1: eat the lunch y Kaido packs. Kaimon's eyes narrow and
- 18:20Speaker 1: he thinks, you're not getting a single bite. Next, we
- 18:23Speaker 1: see a black screen and some green computer images kind
- 18:28Speaker 1: of fade into it, like not like a current computer,
- 18:31Speaker 1: but an old one that would look like this, and
- 18:34Speaker 1: we see that map is selected on it and there's
- 18:37Speaker 1: just like lots of rectangles and green rectangles all over
- 18:41Speaker 1: the place, like maybe we're looking down at some buildings,
- 18:46Speaker 1: like you know, from above. Then it zooms in on
- 18:49Speaker 1: this one blinking dot. Shin is looking at I guess
- 18:53Speaker 1: what kind of is like a tablet, and En Noi
- 18:56Speaker 1: and Kikodage are also there, and they're in like some
- 18:59Speaker 1: sort of weird mel room with like gears and weird
- 19:01Speaker 1: machines that I really didn't know how to describe to you,
- 19:04Speaker 1: and then says, you'll be able to locate Resoo with that.
- 19:08Speaker 1: Shin says, currently heading north. Huh, And then we hear
- 19:12Speaker 1: a voice say boss. They look up and one of
- 19:15Speaker 1: those guard guys is running over holding a little glass
- 19:18Speaker 1: bottle and like a bunch of papers that are clipped together,
- 19:21Speaker 1: and he says, we figured out what's in Ebbisu's magic.
- 19:24Speaker 1: He is, I guess not paying attention, and he trips
- 19:27Speaker 1: over like this large electrical conduit that totally shouldn't just
- 19:32Speaker 1: be lying across the floor at all, and just kind
- 19:37Speaker 1: of lets go of the jar. It goes flying and
- 19:40Speaker 1: it hits Noy in the back of the head and
- 19:42Speaker 1: just explodes, and black smoke just envelops NOI. She screams
- 19:47Speaker 1: and like chokes, and Shin's like, NOI, what's in Ebbi
- 19:52Speaker 1: Sue's magic. The guard jumps and looks at like the
- 19:55Speaker 1: bunch of papers and is like, uh, it's NOI has
- 19:59Speaker 1: her hands on her head and the smoke is like
- 20:02Speaker 1: squirling around her and her arm starts to like bulge.
- 20:06Speaker 1: It kind of gets like light purple and like textured
- 20:09Speaker 1: with maybe scales, and she is still screaming and she's like,
- 20:12Speaker 1: oh shit, she's already transforming and looks pretty fucking stressed,
- 20:16Speaker 1: and he's like, where the hell is eby Sue. We
- 20:19Speaker 1: go to black, and then we see Ebbi Sue in
- 20:21Speaker 1: that shar costume and she says shabby, probably because of
- 20:26Speaker 1: what she and Fujiita are looking at, which is they
- 20:29Speaker 1: are standing in front of something that looks like maybe
- 20:32Speaker 1: a circular wall made out of scrap wood sort of
- 20:34Speaker 1: it's heavily graffitied, and Ebisu says, sorcerers burned at the steak.
- 20:41Speaker 1: So we see these four dead guys like on poles.
- 20:46Speaker 1: I guess they're sorcerers and they have like a very
- 20:49Speaker 1: specific look to them. And I paused this and I
- 20:51Speaker 1: was like, slip not Yeah, it's Slipnot on poles. The
- 20:58Speaker 1: sunlight is kind of behind them, so don't see a
- 21:00Speaker 1: ton of their features, but Slipnot with masks on have
- 21:04Speaker 1: very distinct profiles. I guess that's what I'm trying to say.
- 21:08Speaker 1: So I knew immediately, and then I was like, wait,
- 21:11Speaker 1: am I insane that I think this is Slipknot? So
- 21:15Speaker 1: I immediately stopped watching the episode and went to look
- 21:17Speaker 1: into it, and yes, it is absolutely Slipnot dead on
- 21:21Speaker 1: those steaks. Now, the reason as to why Slipknot is
- 21:27Speaker 1: there is really really interesting, and I want to share
- 21:30Speaker 1: it with you, but I want to do it at
- 21:32Speaker 1: the end if you don't mind, so just remember Slipnot
- 21:35Speaker 1: and we will come back to it. But I was
- 21:38Speaker 1: very excited to see Slipnot even though they are dead,
- 21:41Speaker 1: because I like Slipnot anyway. So we see dead Slipknot
- 21:45Speaker 1: and the guy with the syringes in his head points
- 21:48Speaker 1: and he's like, that puddle between second and third base
- 21:51Speaker 1: is a bottomless swamp. Be careful. There's like some boards
- 21:55Speaker 1: placed like over this area that kind of looks like
- 21:58Speaker 1: a whole sort of maybe a little bit, and Fuji
- 22:01Speaker 1: does like bottomless. We hear the coach say, here come
- 22:05Speaker 1: the maggots of the medical world, kime In and everyone
- 22:09Speaker 1: is walking over and they're wearing like really nice black
- 22:12Speaker 1: uniforms that say worms and yellow on them. They're the worms. Okay,
- 22:18Speaker 1: kime In too. Nicaido says, did you bring us lunches? Ni?
- 22:21Speaker 1: Kido's like yeah, Fuji does scowls, and he's like that
- 22:24Speaker 1: bastard lizard. The coach and Vox face each other in
- 22:28Speaker 1: front of this really ramshackle greenish wall with like a
- 22:32Speaker 1: leaning stop light pole and wires overhead, which we're confusing
- 22:36Speaker 1: to me, and the coach says, still doing that unscientific
- 22:40Speaker 1: rubbish you call magic medicine. Fox is like, look who's talking, you,
- 22:44Speaker 1: swindling quack, You and your team of old fogies. The
- 22:47Speaker 1: coach says, yeah, like your team of invalid is any better.
- 22:51Speaker 1: And before me any further, I just wanted to explain
- 22:54Speaker 1: what this place is because it's not in the anime
- 22:56Speaker 1: for some reason, which I think is a missed opportunity
- 22:59Speaker 1: because it's just weird. So this baseball field is the
- 23:04Speaker 1: former prison yard baseball field from like the whole prison
- 23:08Speaker 1: for sorcerers that like once existed. I guess you know,
- 23:12Speaker 1: back when the people in the hole were just victims
- 23:16Speaker 1: all the time, so now you know, and the sorcerers
- 23:19Speaker 1: that are on stakes, I'm pretty sure have been preserved.
- 23:21Speaker 1: I think they said, like wax or something, but I
- 23:24Speaker 1: don't want to go back and look it up because
- 23:26Speaker 1: I just closed the manga. Anyway, we see a pole
- 23:29Speaker 1: with like loud spears on it, and an air raid
- 23:31Speaker 1: siren starts to go off kind of quietly actually, and
- 23:34Speaker 1: we hear a voice, like a female voice, say, we
- 23:36Speaker 1: will now begin a game between the Peace Sharks and
- 23:38Speaker 1: the Central Worms. Ebisuit runs from the bench and kind
- 23:42Speaker 1: of starts to sing and dance out her cheer, I
- 23:47Speaker 1: guess her, or maybe not sing but cheer. I don't
- 23:50Speaker 1: really know. Anyway, it goes the Ruthless Triangle out at sea,
- 23:55Speaker 1: black eyes shining at the girls in bikinis. They're flesh
- 23:58Speaker 1: apart tye the blue ocean red with blood crush their bones.
- 24:03Speaker 1: Sharks sharks piece sharks sort of it. I did not
- 24:07Speaker 1: do a good job. It was hard though, because it
- 24:09Speaker 1: doesn't quite flow properly, or maybe that's just my fault. Anyway,
- 24:15Speaker 1: we see a hand with like I guess, like a
- 24:16Speaker 1: chalk pad in it. I'm not really sure anyway, it's Fujita.
- 24:19Speaker 1: He drops it and he lifts his glove to catch
- 24:22Speaker 1: a ball. He looks really pissed. Kasukabe is sitting on
- 24:25Speaker 1: a bench and someone with a bat is in front
- 24:28Speaker 1: of him, but like we can only see their arms,
- 24:29Speaker 1: so I don't know who it is, and he says,
- 24:31Speaker 1: all right, go for it. It kind of looks like
- 24:34Speaker 1: he pats them on the ass maybe, and they start
- 24:37Speaker 1: to walk forward, and we hear that voice say, first up,
- 24:41Speaker 1: it's third Baseman, Magic user Frankenstein. Oh. The thing walks
- 24:47Speaker 1: up and it's moaning and drooling, and Fujita looks over
- 24:51Speaker 1: and his eyes widen. Matsumura. Fuck, yeah, it's stitched together
- 24:57Speaker 1: Matsumura thing. I don't know of all the body parts
- 25:01Speaker 1: are Matsumuras. They're probably not, but the head is definitely Matsumuras.
- 25:05Speaker 1: Kasu Kabe is like, pretty cool, right, I made him
- 25:08Speaker 1: using the meat left over from the door. That's great.
- 25:12Speaker 1: The rest of the worms look kind of grossed out
- 25:14Speaker 1: about this, because yep, and we hear some guy say
- 25:17Speaker 1: play ball. Matsumura swings the bad and moans. Fujita gasps
- 25:22Speaker 1: again and is like, why is Matsumura here. He's in
- 25:25Speaker 1: a state of shock, not moving, and the syringe guy
- 25:28Speaker 1: walks over and says, hey, you all right Matsumula points
- 25:33Speaker 1: he The syringe guy looks over and is like, oh,
- 25:36Speaker 1: that crazy Kasu kab made him using parts from sorcerer's corpses.
- 25:41Speaker 1: But it's not against the rules and it is a sorcerer,
- 25:44Speaker 1: so let him have it. Ouch. He slaps Fujia in
- 25:47Speaker 1: the back and says hurry up and pitch, and he
- 25:49Speaker 1: runs back to his position. Fujita looks even more horrified
- 25:53Speaker 1: for a second, and then he steals himself and says,
- 25:57Speaker 1: how dare you hold dwellers mess with my friend's body.
- 26:01Speaker 1: He's kind of starting to tear up too. He's like, wait,
- 26:04Speaker 1: that's it. If I take that body home, Kikaragi can
- 26:08Speaker 1: revive Matsumura. I don't know why he is talking out loud,
- 26:13Speaker 1: think these things. This is not a safe space for
- 26:15Speaker 1: you to be talking sorcerer things. Please anyway, some guy
- 26:20Speaker 1: is like hurry up. Fujita's like damn, I'm so smart,
- 26:23Speaker 1: and he pitches. Matsumura hits it and he goes flying.
- 26:27Speaker 1: I think maybe out of the stadium. Maybe it's a
- 26:29Speaker 1: home run. I don't know. The worms look thrilled, and
- 26:32Speaker 1: Vox is like, all right, score. Matsumura runs for it,
- 26:36Speaker 1: and he goes past one of the bases and right
- 26:39Speaker 1: into that hole, which I think is probably quicksand, and
- 26:43Speaker 1: he starts to sink very slowly into it. Fujita is
- 26:47Speaker 1: like Matsumura, and he runs over and starts trying to
- 26:50Speaker 1: pull him out, and everyone from the worms also starts
- 26:52Speaker 1: to run over, and some guy that I don't know
- 26:55Speaker 1: who it is, is like, hurry, pull him out. He
- 26:57Speaker 1: is out now, and he finishes running like it never
- 27:01Speaker 1: even happened, covered in mud or quicksand or whatever. While
- 27:05Speaker 1: Fujita is on his hands and knees trying to catch
- 27:08Speaker 1: his breath, Fox is like, be careful, cheese. Kastu Kabe
- 27:12Speaker 1: comes over to Fujita and it's like, you're a good dude,
- 27:15Speaker 1: and chuckles. We hear that voice again and it says,
- 27:18Speaker 1: second up from second base, Kasu Kabe. We see the
- 27:21Speaker 1: scoreboard quickly, and the worms have one point or one
- 27:25Speaker 1: run or whatever it is, and you know, sharks don't
- 27:28Speaker 1: have anything, obviously. Kastu Kabe stretches his legs and is like, alrighty,
- 27:32Speaker 1: we see thirteen. Now he's leaning over the back of
- 27:34Speaker 1: the bench where Kaimen is sitting, and he says, so
- 27:38Speaker 1: Kimon's on, what's the deal with you in Nikkaido? Kaimon's like,
- 27:42Speaker 1: the deal we're friends. Thirteen says that means I can
- 27:47Speaker 1: have her, right cheese, dude, Women are not possessions. If
- 27:51Speaker 1: she likes you and you like her back, you can't
- 27:55Speaker 1: be in a relationship with her, but you can't have her.
- 27:57Speaker 1: She's not like a car anyway. Kaim Inside eyes him
- 28:03Speaker 1: for a second, me too, and he's like, hmm, that's
- 28:07Speaker 1: none of my business. I mean, yeah, kasu Kabe punts
- 28:13Speaker 1: the ball and runs to first and we hear a voice,
- 28:15Speaker 1: ay safe, and kink is like, nice spunt. Vaux says
- 28:20Speaker 1: he's sure is quick on his feet. We hear that
- 28:23Speaker 1: voice say third up, shortstop. Thirteen thirteen smiles I think
- 28:27Speaker 1: directly at Nikaido and he hits a ball like sort
- 28:30Speaker 1: of lowish, I guess, and I think the coach of
- 28:34Speaker 1: the Sharks is like a hit to the right, and
- 28:37Speaker 1: one of the shark dudes scoops it up and the
- 28:40Speaker 1: coach to Ebisu, says, what a useless pitcher. Time for
- 28:43Speaker 1: plan A. Ebbi SU's like plan A. Next we see
- 28:48Speaker 1: Kimon knocking some of the dirt off of his shoes,
- 28:51Speaker 1: and a voice says, fourth, up the catcher, Kimen. Kaimon
- 28:54Speaker 1: walks up and he like hits the ground with his bat,
- 28:58Speaker 1: and Fujita, out loud again, is like, we meet again,
- 29:01Speaker 1: lizard guy. But I guess quietly enough that Kimon doesn't
- 29:04Speaker 1: hear anyway. He continues, I was gonna destroy him, but
- 29:07Speaker 1: I better focus on taking Matsumuna back instead. Kimon, under
- 29:10Speaker 1: his breath is like thirteen, that little prick. It's okay
- 29:13Speaker 1: if you like Nikaido. Fujita says at least then to Kimen,
- 29:17Speaker 1: I don't know why, Fujita, I'll strike you out, and
- 29:21Speaker 1: he throws Kymen's like but he annoys the shit out
- 29:24Speaker 1: of me and hits it. It like goes flying and
- 29:28Speaker 1: it hits one of the corpses that are displayed on
- 29:31Speaker 1: the sticks and slices it in half. And Kimon runs
- 29:35Speaker 1: and everyone's cheering, and I think Vox is like, all right,
- 29:40Speaker 1: three runs. Johnson's like shocking Fox laughs and is like,
- 29:44Speaker 1: look at their long faces. Nikaido says at a boy,
- 29:49Speaker 1: Fujita is on his knees now with his head down,
- 29:52Speaker 1: and he's like, I'm such a loser. Hebby. Sue walks
- 29:55Speaker 1: over and is like, Fujita. Fujita says, what you to
- 30:00Speaker 1: make fun of me? Ebisu looks at him with pity
- 30:03Speaker 1: in her eyes and says, just use your magic Puji
- 30:06Speaker 1: to gasp send me. Cut to a black screen. Next
- 30:09Speaker 1: we see Vox walking up to bat and a voice
- 30:13Speaker 1: says fifth from first base. Vox, this is when I
- 30:17Speaker 1: found out that I was pronouncing Fox wrong. By the way,
- 30:20Speaker 1: Vox is like, all right, keep them coming, and he
- 30:23Speaker 1: misses the first one, and I think the umpire is
- 30:27Speaker 1: probably this person is like, strike you're out. Fox is like,
- 30:31Speaker 1: what the fuck is that? That? I had to be
- 30:32Speaker 1: going at least one hundred and sixty kilometers per hour
- 30:35Speaker 1: by the way I checked, It's about ninety nine point
- 30:37Speaker 1: four to one or point four to two miles per hour,
- 30:40Speaker 1: which is pretty fast. But it doesn't sound as crazy
- 30:43Speaker 1: as one hundred and sixty kilometers in my opinion, because
- 30:46Speaker 1: I don't understand kilometers, so it's pretty fast though. Regardless.
- 30:50Speaker 1: Fujia catches the ball and chuckles and actually thinks this
- 30:53Speaker 1: time instead of saying it out loud, my magic spurts
- 30:56Speaker 1: smoke like a bullet. It's weak and limited, so it's
- 30:58Speaker 1: hardly ever useful, but I can throw really fast balls
- 31:02Speaker 1: with it. Yay. You see Ebisu now walking over to
- 31:05Speaker 1: Kink and Zeus, who are sitting on the bench, and
- 31:08Speaker 1: she has soda cups in her hands, and she says, here,
- 31:11Speaker 1: have some drinks. Actually they say sports drink on them.
- 31:14Speaker 1: Kink is like thanks, and she hands them over to
- 31:18Speaker 1: them and is like there you go and leaves. They
- 31:20Speaker 1: both take a sip, and then we hear the voice
- 31:23Speaker 1: say sixth from center field. Johnson Johnson walks up and
- 31:27Speaker 1: makes some cockroach noises and fuji Do is like gross
- 31:31Speaker 1: and throws the ball and the catcher catches it like
- 31:34Speaker 1: way off to the side, and the umpire says ball four.
- 31:38Speaker 1: Johnson's like shocking, and Fujia says, damn it, I lost control.
- 31:42Speaker 1: I mean Johnson is scary and gross. Johnson runs to
- 31:46Speaker 1: first base. Kasukabe turns to box and says, Johnson made
- 31:50Speaker 1: it to first Can I let him steal? He raises
- 31:53Speaker 1: the controller. Fox is like, h okay, Zeus is now
- 31:58Speaker 1: going up to bat, look really really slumped over. Not great.
- 32:02Speaker 1: He looks like he's kind of nodding off, you know,
- 32:04Speaker 1: like when you just start to fall asleep and then
- 32:07Speaker 1: you perk back up because you're not in your bed
- 32:10Speaker 1: and you're not supposed to just be sleeping standing up,
- 32:12Speaker 1: and he's like so tired. Back to Vox, who says,
- 32:16Speaker 1: are you sure about this? And Kastu Kabe's like, let's
- 32:20Speaker 1: go all the way to third base. He presses a button.
- 32:23Speaker 1: Johnson like twitches, kind of scaring one of the sharks
- 32:25Speaker 1: guys that sear him, and he goes down on all
- 32:28Speaker 1: I guess sixes. He has six legs, so he's on
- 32:30Speaker 1: all of them on the ground. Bujita throws and Costu
- 32:33Speaker 1: Kabe slides like one of the controllers forward and Johnson
- 32:37Speaker 1: like takes off scurrying, and the catcher's like second, Johnson,
- 32:41Speaker 1: round second, and the catcher says third. Johnson slides into third,
- 32:46Speaker 1: knocking the third baseman like way out of the way,
- 32:48Speaker 1: and Costu Kabe's like, we made it, yay, good good job.
- 32:53Speaker 1: Vox lets out this kind of like what the fuck
- 32:56Speaker 1: is going on? Laugh? We cut to the catcher catching
- 33:00Speaker 1: ball while Zeus just like literally sleeps standing up, and
- 33:03Speaker 1: the umpire is like, strike better out. The same thing
- 33:06Speaker 1: exactly happens with Kink, and the umpire says three outs. Change.
- 33:11Speaker 1: Ebi Su to the coach is like, what was in
- 33:13Speaker 1: those drinks? The coach says, just some sleeping pills. We
- 33:17Speaker 1: see Zeus and Kink like both asleep, like leaning against
- 33:21Speaker 1: each other on the bench. Luckily, they're just asleep and
- 33:24Speaker 1: they're probably gonna be okay, and Kasu Kabe and Box
- 33:28Speaker 1: are staring at them, and Fox looks real stressed now,
- 33:32Speaker 1: and Kasa Kabe says, I think they've been drugged. Fox
- 33:35Speaker 1: gasps and is like that old man. Now. We see
- 33:38Speaker 1: Fuji Dat sitting on the bench drinking some juice out
- 33:41Speaker 1: of a juice box, and he says, Ebi, Sue, be
- 33:44Speaker 1: ready to leave, Okay, I'm gonna grab matsumura when I
- 33:47Speaker 1: get the chance. Ebisu's like, I want some too. Fuji
- 33:51Speaker 1: Da says, this is an expensive energy drink the booster
- 33:54Speaker 1: you smoke, but he gives it to her. You can't
- 33:57Speaker 1: even use your magic right now, Sue SIPs it. Yum yum.
- 34:02Speaker 1: We see Kimon and Nikido's standing I guess on the
- 34:04Speaker 1: field or whatever. Nikido's stretching her arms and Kymon says,
- 34:08Speaker 1: how are you feeling. Nikido's like I'm fine now. Thirteen
- 34:12Speaker 1: runs over and he's like Nikaido. Nikada's like yeah, Thirteen
- 34:16Speaker 1: says leave shortstop to me and runs off. Sure. Kimon
- 34:20Speaker 1: puts down his like you know, like thing, how many thing,
- 34:23Speaker 1: cage thing that goes over his face because he's a catcher.
- 34:25Speaker 1: I don't know what hell that's called, and it's like
- 34:27Speaker 1: nobody's gonna get a hit, idiot. We see him signal
- 34:31Speaker 1: two and then one with his hands like between his legs,
- 34:34Speaker 1: like I guess cashers do. I don't know what that means,
- 34:38Speaker 1: and he's like, okay, let's go with this. Nikido knots.
- 34:41Speaker 1: She pitches super fast and the guy misses and the
- 34:45Speaker 1: umpires like strike. We see him miss twice more and
- 34:48Speaker 1: then get out and he walks away real sad as.
- 34:51Speaker 1: The next guy comes up, and then we hear the
- 34:53Speaker 1: umpire say strike, you're out, and that dude walks away
- 34:56Speaker 1: real sad as. The next guy comes up and we
- 34:59Speaker 1: hear Kiymon say okay, two outs. Nikido throws another ball
- 35:03Speaker 1: and this guy hits it. Kimon runs for it and
- 35:06Speaker 1: slides and catches the ball and he's like three outs change, Yay,
- 35:11Speaker 1: they did a good job. I guess. Kien and Nikaia
- 35:15Speaker 1: were just jogging back to the dugout or whatever, and
- 35:18Speaker 1: Kymon says nice pitching, and Nikida's like nice signs Kymen.
- 35:23Speaker 1: They kind of do this high fist bump thing, and
- 35:26Speaker 1: then we cut to the coach who, to Ebisu, says
- 35:30Speaker 1: it's time for plan ba go kill that bug using insecticide.
- 35:34Speaker 1: That seems mean. He hands a can to Ebbi Sue.
- 35:38Speaker 1: We cut to two Matsumota who has something on his
- 35:40Speaker 1: head and like wire is attached to it and it
- 35:43Speaker 1: looks like he's getting electrocuted and he moans and he's
- 35:45Speaker 1: like kind of vibrating. Kas Kabe says, I gotta charge
- 35:49Speaker 1: you every thirty minutes to keep you from going crazy.
- 35:51Speaker 1: He looks over, huh. Ebbi Sue is on the field
- 35:55Speaker 1: with the can open and a mustard colored tea kettle
- 36:00Speaker 1: of like leaning over and she's like open the lid,
- 36:03Speaker 1: pour the water to the dotted line. She pours the
- 36:06Speaker 1: water in kasu kave now in front of her, bending down,
- 36:09Speaker 1: says what are you doing? Eby Suit jolts up and
- 36:13Speaker 1: Fox is like, we got a dirty little spy. I
- 36:15Speaker 1: don't think spy is the right word, but that's okay.
- 36:18Speaker 1: Eby Suit runs forward, screaming, and Johnson is like chasing
- 36:21Speaker 1: her now, which makes sense because she was gonna kill
- 36:23Speaker 1: Johnson and that seems me. Fox is like she's trying
- 36:26Speaker 1: to exterminate the bug. Next we hear that voice again,
- 36:29Speaker 1: say ninth pitcher Nikaido. We cut Tinni Kaido holding out
- 36:33Speaker 1: her bat and she says ready. Fujiita leans over with
- 36:37Speaker 1: the ball behind his back and it's like she's that
- 36:40Speaker 1: sorcerer girl. You treat her. He squeezes the ball, surrounding
- 36:44Speaker 1: it with smoke and it's like take this and throws.
- 36:48Speaker 1: Nikaido has to dodge to keep from being hitting ahead
- 36:51Speaker 1: with the ball, which is not good, and Thirteen's like
- 36:53Speaker 1: that was a bean ball. Watch it. Kaimen is eating
- 36:57Speaker 1: lunch and he's like, it's not gonna hit her. He
- 37:00Speaker 1: eats a yosa. Thirteen says, you're so cold, aren't you
- 37:04Speaker 1: worried about her? I bitch? She's scared now because of
- 37:06Speaker 1: that pitching. Keimen's like, you know, nothing about Nikaido and
- 37:11Speaker 1: eats another josa back to Fujita, who says, you little bitch,
- 37:15Speaker 1: you asked for it and throws again. We see the
- 37:18Speaker 1: ball coming at Nikaido covered in black smoke, and Nikida
- 37:22Speaker 1: grits her teeth and hits it really hard. That coach
- 37:27Speaker 1: guy is like, I got it, and he's holding out
- 37:29Speaker 1: his glove as he shakes. The ball is approaching look
- 37:33Speaker 1: really fast and he is ready but you know, still shaking,
- 37:38Speaker 1: and he actually catches it, but it is going so
- 37:42Speaker 1: fast that it makes a hole through his glove and
- 37:45Speaker 1: then smacks him right in the jaw. This knocks his dentures,
- 37:49Speaker 1: like right out of his mouth. Also he's bleeding from
- 37:52Speaker 1: I guess his mouth and he falls to the ground. Yay.
- 37:56Speaker 1: The catcher runs over and is like, coach the umpire
- 37:59Speaker 1: weight stop the game. Nikaido looks worried because this is
- 38:04Speaker 1: really not her fault at all, but it's kind of
- 38:06Speaker 1: her faults, you know, like if she hadn't hit the ball,
- 38:08Speaker 1: the coach wouldn't have got smacked in the face with that.
- 38:11Speaker 1: But it's totally the coach's fault, honestly. And Fuji does
- 38:14Speaker 1: because he's using magic. But anyway. Thirteen looks on in
- 38:18Speaker 1: disbelief and Kimon says, see, I told you so, and
- 38:21Speaker 1: he eats a yoza. At this point, Fuji du grabs
- 38:25Speaker 1: Matsumota's wrists and it's like, now's our chance. Come on
- 38:28Speaker 1: Matsumuto's corpse, and he drags him away. We hear someone
- 38:31Speaker 1: say coach, and a lot of the sharks start to
- 38:34Speaker 1: run over to the coach, who is I guess passed
- 38:36Speaker 1: out and someone else says, bring a stretcher. Vox kind
- 38:39Speaker 1: of huffs and it's like, we could have won if
- 38:41Speaker 1: the game wasn't called off. Kasukabe is like looking around
- 38:45Speaker 1: and he says, hey, where's Frankenstein. We see fujitub pushing
- 38:49Speaker 1: him through like his door, and he's like, hurry up,
- 38:51Speaker 1: where'd Ebisu go? She is still running from Johnson, by
- 38:55Speaker 1: the way, but she is trying to make it towards
- 38:56Speaker 1: the door, and Fuji does like Ebi sue hurry. She
- 39:00Speaker 1: dives inside and Fujita closes the door right in time,
- 39:03Speaker 1: and we hear like a sound like maybe Johnson slammed
- 39:05Speaker 1: into the other side. Safe now. Fujita leans against the
- 39:09Speaker 1: door and lets out a really exasperated sigh, and on
- 39:13Speaker 1: the other side, Johnson is just looking at it confused.
- 39:16Speaker 1: As the doors dissolves, we go to black. Back from black,
- 39:21Speaker 1: we see that room or whatever it is with all
- 39:24Speaker 1: the doors everywhere, but then we quickly cut to a
- 39:27Speaker 1: blood splattered green wall. The camera pulls back and this
- 39:33Speaker 1: is a hallway and it's just covered in blood and
- 39:35Speaker 1: there's broken windows. I think it's an Ends mansion. The
- 39:39Speaker 1: camera then rotates around the corner to where Fujita, Ebisu
- 39:43Speaker 1: and dead Matsumura are walking through, like out of a doorway,
- 39:47Speaker 1: maybe out of an elevator, I'm not sure. And this
- 39:49Speaker 1: part of the hallway looks just fine, like they're not
- 39:51Speaker 1: gonna walk in and be like, oh fuck, what happened?
- 39:54Speaker 1: It just looks normal. Fujita is like, we're back, and
- 39:57Speaker 1: they stop. That's funny. Where it everyone go? We see
- 40:01Speaker 1: someone approaching from behind him, and Fujia continues. A doorman
- 40:05Speaker 1: wasn't there either. It's one of those guard dudes, and
- 40:08Speaker 1: he's like stumbling. Now, blood's flattered, and he sort of
- 40:13Speaker 1: like bumps into the back of Fujita. Fujita is like
- 40:15Speaker 1: hmm and turns. Fujita sees the guy and screams, and
- 40:20Speaker 1: this poor guy like his eyes are all bloodshot and
- 40:22Speaker 1: he's bloody. He just falls over onto the floor in
- 40:25Speaker 1: a puddle of his own blood, and Fuji is like,
- 40:28Speaker 1: he's dead. What the fuck is going on? He starts
- 40:32Speaker 1: to walk forward again, holding Matsumuda's hand, and by the way,
- 40:35Speaker 1: they're all still in their you know, baseball uniforms, but
- 40:38Speaker 1: they have their masks on, and he's like, anyway, we
- 40:40Speaker 1: have to take Matsumura to Kikarage. We should probably let
- 40:44Speaker 1: someone know about this dead guy though, probably right. Ebisu
- 40:48Speaker 1: doesn't move, but she grips the size of her head,
- 40:50Speaker 1: which is the sides of the shark costume head by
- 40:54Speaker 1: the way, so it's kind of cute, and she starts
- 40:57Speaker 1: to shake. She makes like this kind of hained noise
- 41:01Speaker 1: that I don't know how to replicate. Fujita turns back
- 41:04Speaker 1: to her and is like, what's wrong. Oh, And we
- 41:07Speaker 1: get a shot of the ceiling and it is a
- 41:08Speaker 1: tin ceiling. It's gorgeous. Thank you. Eby Sue's eyes are
- 41:14Speaker 1: like super wide and she's like, my head hurts, the
- 41:17Speaker 1: veins in my brain are swelling. That sounds bad. We
- 41:21Speaker 1: zoom in on her wide bloodshot eye with like a
- 41:25Speaker 1: really elliptical pupil for some reason, like she's a cat
- 41:29Speaker 1: or something. And then we fade into noise, red bloodshot
- 41:35Speaker 1: eye in her mask, and she's breathing really hard and
- 41:39Speaker 1: her hands are on her head as well, and she's
- 41:41Speaker 1: hunched over. Also. She just looks real, not like NOI,
- 41:45Speaker 1: Like she's giant and kind of really muscly, and I
- 41:49Speaker 1: think her skin is like purple and scaly. You know.
- 41:51Speaker 1: Her shirt is totally gone and she still has her
- 41:54Speaker 1: mask on, but it looks distorted like she's got a
- 41:56Speaker 1: snout or something behind it, and their spikes on her back.
- 42:01Speaker 1: She suddenly looks up and Shin is standing in the
- 42:05Speaker 1: doorway like she's in this big industrial kitchen that's just
- 42:08Speaker 1: a mess. It's just pots and utensils like scattered all
- 42:11Speaker 1: over the floor and there's blood on the walls. And
- 42:14Speaker 1: Shin says, NOI, it's okay, it's me. Oh, he's sweet.
- 42:19Speaker 1: NOI stands slowly and is like send pie and is
- 42:23Speaker 1: also standing in the doorway with Kikarage kind of behind Chin,
- 42:25Speaker 1: and he says, be careful. There was black powder and
- 42:28Speaker 1: ebysue smoke. That's why NOI's out of control. I feel
- 42:32Speaker 1: like NOI would be out of control anyway though, because
- 42:34Speaker 1: she's turning into a lizard. But who knows. Kikarag is
- 42:37Speaker 1: like yeah, Chin says, what a mess and starts to
- 42:40Speaker 1: walk towards her for some reasons. Her pants are still on,
- 42:43Speaker 1: by the way, and also she has a very large
- 42:46Speaker 1: tail that also has spikes on it. She says, Sendpi,
- 42:51Speaker 1: I can't stop myself. She kind of gasps for air,
- 42:54Speaker 1: and Shin's like, NOI. At this point, Noi slashes him
- 42:58Speaker 1: like right in the face and cuts his face, but
- 43:00Speaker 1: also tears off his mask, and she's like okay, come
- 43:03Speaker 1: on and lunges for her with his hammer. Noi wraps
- 43:07Speaker 1: her tail around his throat and slams him back into
- 43:10Speaker 1: the wall hard enough that he coughs up blood. He
- 43:13Speaker 1: kind of like scream chokes as she lifts him up,
- 43:18Speaker 1: and she kind of wrings him in close, and he
- 43:21Speaker 1: just punches like right through her neck. I guess he's
- 43:25Speaker 1: really strong. Blood spurts everywhere because yeah, Shin chuckles, see
- 43:31Speaker 1: what Senpi can do. But then he just screams and
- 43:35Speaker 1: spits up more blood, and we see that Noi has
- 43:37Speaker 1: shoved her claw through Shin's side, kind of in his
- 43:41Speaker 1: abdomen on, like the lower left side, and then she
- 43:44Speaker 1: tears her hand like out the side of him, leaving
- 43:48Speaker 1: like this big massive crater in him yay, and his
- 43:53Speaker 1: intestines just kind of spill out, and then she falls
- 43:56Speaker 1: over backwards because she's got a big hole in her throat,
- 43:59Speaker 1: and Shin falls on top of her, and Kikara gave
- 44:03Speaker 1: makes a really kind of sad yeah sound and looks
- 44:07Speaker 1: a little frustrated, and he's like, oh man, we go
- 44:09Speaker 1: to black okay before we continue, I just wanted to
- 44:13Speaker 1: say this the whole kind of I guess fight scene
- 44:16Speaker 1: between Chin and Noi here, I'm pretty sure it was
- 44:19Speaker 1: conventionally animated, because again, most of this is in three
- 44:23Speaker 1: D kind of computer animated, but this just had so
- 44:27Speaker 1: much movement and like it had some animation principles like
- 44:30Speaker 1: squash and stretch and stuff. I'm pretty sure it's just
- 44:33Speaker 1: solidly two D conventional animation. And I thought it looked great, honestly,
- 44:38Speaker 1: which is surprising to me because the fights so far
- 44:42Speaker 1: have been a little bit confusing, Like it's really hard
- 44:44Speaker 1: for me to tell what's going on, and I don't
- 44:46Speaker 1: really know why. I don't know if that's a problem
- 44:48Speaker 1: with the computer animation thing or choreography or what we're
- 44:51Speaker 1: doing here. But this was like really easy and really beautiful,
- 44:54Speaker 1: so I liked it a lot. Anyway, Now we see
- 44:58Speaker 1: the inside of an elevator, kind of like the spot
- 45:01Speaker 1: where the numbers show up and then they shows you
- 45:04Speaker 1: when it's going up, you know that thing, And there's
- 45:08Speaker 1: forty nine floors and it's like gold on the inside.
- 45:11Speaker 1: And we hear En say, you Oka, Shin. I don't
- 45:14Speaker 1: think Shin is okay. Shin is standing there with NOI
- 45:18Speaker 1: draped over his shoulder, who is way bigger than him,
- 45:21Speaker 1: by the way, and he's just like she's a little heavy. Sure,
- 45:28Speaker 1: he has a puddle of blood below him and he's
- 45:31Speaker 1: just dripping into it, and n is like looking at
- 45:35Speaker 1: it and kind of sweating a little. Yeah, yeah, I
- 45:38Speaker 1: think he's dying anyway, Shinn says, what's this elevator anyway?
- 45:44Speaker 1: I think it's just an elevator, and it's like it's
- 45:47Speaker 1: a secret elevator that only I know about. It's connected
- 45:50Speaker 1: to a certain man's room. I'd rather not have anything
- 45:53Speaker 1: to do with him. But he can break the spell
- 45:55Speaker 1: on NOI. The elevator dings at floor forty nine. The
- 46:00Speaker 1: start to open in shin gasps. I thought, either you
- 46:03Speaker 1: had to get the one who cast it to undo it,
- 46:06Speaker 1: or the sorcerer had to die, and walks out of
- 46:08Speaker 1: the elevator. We cut to his hands turning a key
- 46:12Speaker 1: in a padlock, and he says, in this world, now
- 46:17Speaker 1: we see two big purple doors with inverted crosses on
- 46:20Speaker 1: them opening. He continues, there are sorcerers that have magic
- 46:25Speaker 1: to undo others magic that's convenient. The camera is now
- 46:30Speaker 1: panning up on this really big hanging cage that's teal
- 46:35Speaker 1: with like an orange bottom, and there's like someone in
- 46:38Speaker 1: it who has like a mask on and no shirt
- 46:41Speaker 1: and is sitting on a swing in it reading a book.
- 46:44Speaker 1: It's like a bird cage, and there's other bird cages
- 46:47Speaker 1: like hanging from the ceiling, but they're smaller and like
- 46:49Speaker 1: starlight dangling down. It's got kind of almost a like
- 46:53Speaker 1: a circusy theme to it, but I kind of like it.
- 46:56Speaker 1: And we hear and say, Chota, by the way, has
- 47:01Speaker 1: a dark gray, fuzzy looking mask on that just has
- 47:05Speaker 1: this yellow beak and that's the only openings. So it's
- 47:08Speaker 1: just for his mouth, so I don't know how he sees.
- 47:10Speaker 1: And also maybe it's not fuzzy. Maybe they're feathers. I
- 47:12Speaker 1: don't really know. Anyway, he's like En. He throws open
- 47:16Speaker 1: the door of the cage and it's like En. He
- 47:18Speaker 1: jumps down and runs over and is like N he
- 47:21Speaker 1: hugs n N, I missed you so much. He's like
- 47:26Speaker 1: rubbing his head into End's chest, leaving your partner locked
- 47:29Speaker 1: up here like this. En looks disgusted and he's sweating.
- 47:33Speaker 1: He's just not having a great day and he's like, uh, yes, sorry.
- 47:36Speaker 1: Chodah Shin very quietly is like he's your partner, and
- 47:41Speaker 1: it's like, no way. We now see an exterior shot
- 47:44Speaker 1: of I think like basically a tower. It's like framed
- 47:47Speaker 1: by the setting sun, and it has like lots of
- 47:50Speaker 1: windows and a little cage kind of the same kind
- 47:53Speaker 1: of bird cagey looking thing hanging off of it, and
- 47:55Speaker 1: there's castlations on top, which are those little squared off
- 48:00Speaker 1: ridgy things on the top of castles, and also there's
- 48:04Speaker 1: like a turret hanging off of it, and it just
- 48:06Speaker 1: looks real weird. It's nice but weird, and some birds
- 48:09Speaker 1: flying around in the background, and we hear Choda say, oh, dear,
- 48:13Speaker 1: NOI was turning to a lizard person. That's okay, leave
- 48:16Speaker 1: it to me. Noi is on the floor, lying on
- 48:19Speaker 1: her back in a circle pentagram with like lots of
- 48:23Speaker 1: red candles around. Choda is looking at a book and
- 48:25Speaker 1: he's like, this magic is transformational level sea impure. We
- 48:30Speaker 1: now see him pouring green stuff, like green powdery stuff
- 48:34Speaker 1: into a bowl and he says, we need dirt from hell.
- 48:38Speaker 1: Now we see red kind of big seed things getting
- 48:41Speaker 1: poured into a bowl, the horns of a devil. And
- 48:44Speaker 1: now we see like brownish seats and six hundred and
- 48:48Speaker 1: sixty six types of flower seats and most importantly, the
- 48:52Speaker 1: entrails of the person dearest to Noi. How romantic is that?
- 48:57Speaker 1: Also he has an end tattoo on his left arm.
- 49:01Speaker 1: It's like a heart with like a little you know,
- 49:03Speaker 1: scroll thing in it that says en yay, and Shin's
- 49:08Speaker 1: like dearest to Noy and it's like it must be
- 49:12Speaker 1: one of us, and your entrails are hanging out, so
- 49:14Speaker 1: you do it. He kind of walks off chin kind
- 49:18Speaker 1: of size in the manga. He thinks like it's not
- 49:20Speaker 1: like it's gonna be end because she doesn't really like end.
- 49:23Speaker 1: But whatever. Anyway, Chota grabs a piece of chins intestines
- 49:27Speaker 1: and he has a scissor and he says, pardon me.
- 49:29Speaker 1: We don't see him cut it off for some reason.
- 49:32Speaker 1: It would have been nice, but hey. We now see
- 49:34Speaker 1: him pouring green liquid into like two white things that
- 49:38Speaker 1: look kind of like ice cube trays, and he says,
- 49:41Speaker 1: mix them all up and put him in a mold.
- 49:43Speaker 1: He puts the two ice creab tray things together and
- 49:47Speaker 1: he pops it open, and a little green devil figure
- 49:50Speaker 1: comes out and voila a magic doll. He pulls NOI's
- 49:55Speaker 1: bottom jaw down and is like, now eat up Noi
- 49:59Speaker 1: and puts the doll in her mouth. Then he says,
- 50:02Speaker 1: Shin kuhn, put your hand on NOI's chest and think
- 50:05Speaker 1: about your fondest memory with her. Shin's like, fondest memory,
- 50:10Speaker 1: my fondest memory with Noi. We cut to a car
- 50:14Speaker 1: careening off of a cliff at sunset in slow motion,
- 50:17Speaker 1: and we hear Shin say, one time, when we first
- 50:20Speaker 1: started being partners, we got beaten up really bad. Now
- 50:24Speaker 1: we see Shin and Noi in the car, looking horribly
- 50:27Speaker 1: shocked as the glass from the windshield kind of flies
- 50:31Speaker 1: back towards them, and it's still in slow motion, and
- 50:34Speaker 1: Shin says, and we fell off a cliff on the
- 50:36Speaker 1: way home. He puts his hand on NOI's chest. That's
- 50:39Speaker 1: your fondest memory of That's very sweet. I love him. Anyway,
- 50:45Speaker 1: Chodah takes this like giant ear and looking thing that's
- 50:49Speaker 1: like in his hand, like through the middle of his hand.
- 50:52Speaker 1: Kind of looks like if you have like a larger
- 50:56Speaker 1: sized piercing in your ear kind of deal like a plug,
- 51:01Speaker 1: but you know, like a loop one. I don't know
- 51:03Speaker 1: what I'm trying to say here. And anyway, he takes
- 51:07Speaker 1: it off of his hand, and he's got like a
- 51:10Speaker 1: big hole in his palm, and he says, and finally
- 51:14Speaker 1: a bit of magic black smoke swirls out of the
- 51:17Speaker 1: hole and it forms like I guess a dove or
- 51:20Speaker 1: I guess multiple birds really, and they kind of circle
- 51:23Speaker 1: down into NOI's mouth. It's really really pretty and makes
- 51:26Speaker 1: me like him a lot. And there is a puff
- 51:29Speaker 1: of smoke and then we just see her face totally
- 51:33Speaker 1: normal again. She opens her eyes slowly and honestly, she
- 51:38Speaker 1: looks gorgeous. She's gorgeous both in the anime and in
- 51:42Speaker 1: the manga. This is a really just nice shot and
- 51:46Speaker 1: it's probably hand drawn. By the way, noise like, huh,
- 51:50Speaker 1: some sandpie. Sen opens his eyes and realizes that he
- 51:54Speaker 1: has his hand on her breast and she is naked,
- 51:57Speaker 1: and he like jumps back and yelps and blushes. They
- 52:01Speaker 1: think he's adorable. Noi sits up and is like, what
- 52:06Speaker 1: happened to you? Because remember his intestines are just hanging out,
- 52:09Speaker 1: and also they're cut now, and she's like, let me
- 52:11Speaker 1: fix that right now, and is just staring at all
- 52:15Speaker 1: of this, and Kikarage makes a bunch of sounds that
- 52:18Speaker 1: I don't know how to describe. Shin has one hand
- 52:21Speaker 1: over his face and in the other one he's holding
- 52:23Speaker 1: his jacket out to Noy and is like, wait, NOI
- 52:25Speaker 1: first put this on, and he's like, huh. She is
- 52:30Speaker 1: not embarrassed at all, by the way. She is just awesome.
- 52:34Speaker 1: Then we cut to Ebisu still standing in that hallway
- 52:37Speaker 1: shaking Fuji tas like your eyes are bloodshot, Ebisu, no kidding,
- 52:42Speaker 1: And then we hear Matsumuda moaned somewhere off screen, and
- 52:46Speaker 1: Fuji does, like, shut up, Matsumura, what's And he looks
- 52:49Speaker 1: over and Matsumura's eyes are like super wide, his teeth
- 52:52Speaker 1: are clenched, he's drooling and tears are just pouring down
- 52:55Speaker 1: his face. And then we go to Kasu Kabe, who
- 52:57Speaker 1: is still at the baseball field look at his watch
- 53:00Speaker 1: and he's like, it's been thirty minutes. Now, I hope
- 53:03Speaker 1: Frankenstein hasn't gone crazy somewhere. Yeah. Back to Fudita, who
- 53:08Speaker 1: is getting thrown into a chandelier by Matsumura and he
- 53:12Speaker 1: lands really hard on the floor and Ebisu's like Fujita.
- 53:16Speaker 1: Matsumura grabs her by the head and Ebisu screams as
- 53:20Speaker 1: he lifts her off the ground and she's just kicking
- 53:23Speaker 1: the air and like her eyes are watering, and she
- 53:25Speaker 1: screams again, and at this point, smoke just bursts out
- 53:29Speaker 1: of both of her hands. Funita, on the ground with
- 53:32Speaker 1: a bloody nose, is like Ebi sue. The smoke envelops
- 53:36Speaker 1: Matsumura and then a giant claw extends from it and
- 53:40Speaker 1: grabs his arm. Then a mouth comes out of the smoke,
- 53:45Speaker 1: and we see that there's like this kind of dark
- 53:48Speaker 1: grayish dinosaur with purplish accents, and it just chomps right
- 53:52Speaker 1: on his head like the whole thing. Then it's just
- 53:55Speaker 1: like throwing him around by his head and blood is
- 53:58Speaker 1: flying everywhere, and Fujita is like, this magic. This must
- 54:03Speaker 1: mean the source of where the cast the spell and
- 54:04Speaker 1: the lizard guy is. I mean probably pieces of Matsumura
- 54:08Speaker 1: are just being tossed off now or whatever guys that
- 54:11Speaker 1: are connected to this, you know, because they were only
- 54:13Speaker 1: stitched together. And and now Ebisu lizard thing is holding
- 54:17Speaker 1: Matsumota's head in her hands and she growls and says,
- 54:21Speaker 1: I'll finish him, and she squeezes his head and it
- 54:24Speaker 1: just like explodes into juice basically, and Fuji is like, no, yeah,
- 54:31Speaker 1: there's a puff of smoke. And then Ebisu's just back
- 54:34Speaker 1: to Ebisu, still holding the bloody scraps of Matsumura's head,
- 54:39Speaker 1: and we see her remembering kim and chomping down on
- 54:42Speaker 1: her head and Resu coming out of his throat and
- 54:46Speaker 1: Reesu says you, and then back to now Abisu's like
- 54:50Speaker 1: I remember now. Fuji is like what Ebisu says? The
- 54:54Speaker 1: man in his mouth. Fujita gets to his feet, He's
- 54:57Speaker 1: like ripping his I guess injured arm and says, we
- 55:00Speaker 1: you remember what did the man in the mouth say.
- 55:03Speaker 1: Ebisu holds out the meat bits of Matsumura's head towards
- 55:06Speaker 1: Fujita and it's like, you can have this back, and
- 55:09Speaker 1: Fujita is like, Matsumura, we got a black And then
- 55:13Speaker 1: to the ending theme, which is the same one from
- 55:16Speaker 1: the first episode, except that it has Ebisu running in
- 55:20Speaker 1: a you know, in the shark costume in it, which
- 55:22Speaker 1: is pretty cool. And then what we learned in episode
- 55:25Speaker 1: seven Ebisu is a good shark mascot. I totally agree.
- 55:29Speaker 1: Ebisu's magic is lizard transformation. Guys love Nikaido, they sure do.
- 55:37Speaker 1: What we'll learn in episode eight is still hidden in chaos,
- 55:39Speaker 1: and that is Doro, Hey Dodo, and that's it, Okay,
- 55:43Speaker 1: closing thoughts, Yeah, that happens. So two things or a
- 55:49Speaker 1: million things or whatever. So Ebisu remembered the incidents that
- 55:53Speaker 1: really fucked her up, and unfortunately we didn't get to
- 55:57Speaker 1: hear what the man in the mouth said to her,
- 56:00Speaker 1: So hopefully that's in the next episode because I'm really
- 56:02Speaker 1: curious and I assume it's not just you aren't the one,
- 56:06Speaker 1: but who knows? Right now, it would make sense, I
- 56:09Speaker 1: guess if she was the one who turned Kimbing into
- 56:12Speaker 1: a lizard, even though so far the lizard things we've
- 56:16Speaker 1: seen from Ebisu have been kind of purplish. But maybe
- 56:21Speaker 1: they're not always purplish, you know. I don't know, So yeah,
- 56:26Speaker 1: maybe maybe this was Ebucu's fault, and the question is
- 56:30Speaker 1: does she remember enough to know if she did it
- 56:33Speaker 1: or not. I guess we'll find out in the next episode,
- 56:36Speaker 1: maybe going back a bit further. Yeah, baseball episode, in
- 56:42Speaker 1: case you don't know, that's like semi common to have
- 56:46Speaker 1: in anime, just a baseball episode, because Japanese people really
- 56:51Speaker 1: like baseball, some of them, I guess at least, and
- 56:54Speaker 1: I was thinking about it though, And of course, none
- 56:56Speaker 1: of the shows we've covered so far except for this one,
- 56:59Speaker 1: have a baseball episode except I mean, the closest we
- 57:02Speaker 1: have is some of the contents of Banana Fish, and
- 57:05Speaker 1: that doesn't really count. It definitely shouldn't. So welcome to
- 57:10Speaker 1: baseball episodes in anime in case you're not familiar with them.
- 57:14Speaker 1: But for me, the main thing that was interesting in
- 57:16Speaker 1: this episode is seeing Slipknot on those polls. Yeah, so
- 57:22Speaker 1: I can't remember if when I first saw this I
- 57:24Speaker 1: knew it was slipnot or not. I kind of feel
- 57:26Speaker 1: like I might have, but that was before I was
- 57:28Speaker 1: interested in Slipknot, which is weird because Slipknot's been a
- 57:32Speaker 1: band for like ever, and I could have really been
- 57:35Speaker 1: into new metal when I was in like high school college,
- 57:38Speaker 1: but I wasn't. Yeah, so it's only kind of recently
- 57:41Speaker 1: that I've been like, Okay, Slipnot's really cool. So this
- 57:44Speaker 1: time at least I noticed it immediately and I got
- 57:46Speaker 1: really excited. So when I looked up, you know, Slipknot
- 57:50Speaker 1: Dora Heidoro, I got this episode and like a screen
- 57:53Speaker 1: cap of this scene, but I also got a bunch
- 57:56Speaker 1: of information about q Hayashida obviously the mangaa and how
- 58:01Speaker 1: much she loves Slipnot, which I didn't know. In the manga,
- 58:05Speaker 1: there are several references to Slipknot, including Kasukabe wearing a
- 58:09Speaker 1: Slipknot shirt at one point, and you can't see all
- 58:11Speaker 1: of it, but it very clearly has a Slipknot logo
- 58:13Speaker 1: on it, and then sometimes there's like posters and just
- 58:16Speaker 1: references to like songs and shit like in the artwork,
- 58:20Speaker 1: so it's pretty clear from just that that she likes Slipknots.
- 58:24Speaker 1: But I also found an article about it, so I
- 58:27Speaker 1: figured i'd read part of it for you, because you know,
- 58:29Speaker 1: why not, right, let me find it, Okay, So this
- 58:34Speaker 1: is from like this really weird article that's just like
- 58:37Speaker 1: about Japanese people talking about how much they like Slipknot
- 58:40Speaker 1: or something. I can't read the title, so I don't know,
- 58:44Speaker 1: but anyway, she says, I first learned about Slipknot in
- 58:47Speaker 1: the fall of two thousand when I came across Grindhouse
- 58:50Speaker 1: magazine by chance at a bookstore. I had just finished
- 58:53Speaker 1: drawing the first chapter of a manga called Dorhadoro, which
- 58:56Speaker 1: is full of mass characters. Something struck me when I
- 58:59Speaker 1: saw the photos on the cover, so I bought the magazine,
- 59:02Speaker 1: and that's how I first encountered them. The next day,
- 59:04Speaker 1: I ran out to buy their CD. The music was
- 59:07Speaker 1: also great, and I remember thinking I hit the jackpot
- 59:10Speaker 1: and feeling very happy. Slipknots live shows are just so
- 59:13Speaker 1: much fun. So yeah, she goes on and talks about
- 59:15Speaker 1: like the shows she's been and seen Slipknot at and stuff.
- 59:18Speaker 1: And she also did this really cool sketch of the
- 59:21Speaker 1: lead singer of Slipknot that I think. I'm gonna link
- 59:23Speaker 1: this article in the you know, it's the show description
- 59:26Speaker 1: so you can see because it's really nice. She's really
- 59:29Speaker 1: really talented. And she also goes on to say that
- 59:33Speaker 1: the dark, intense, messy, rowdy, yet energetic and fun atmosphere
- 59:37Speaker 1: of Slipknot that I saw live had a big influence
- 59:41Speaker 1: on my manga, So that's pretty cool. And also she
- 59:43Speaker 1: says she thinks she was influenced a lot by Slipnot
- 59:46Speaker 1: seriousness and service oriented attitude towards their work. Just pretty cool.
- 59:52Speaker 1: And then also in this article, I guess they ask
- 59:56Speaker 1: people to make playlists of their like Slipnot songs that
- 59:59Speaker 1: they want to share with everyone. So I'll tell you
- 1:00:02Speaker 1: what's on her playlist. This is a lot of songs,
- 1:00:04Speaker 1: and apparently she chose songs that she thought were fun
- 1:00:07Speaker 1: at the live shows. So we start off with seven
- 1:00:10Speaker 1: four two six one seven zero zero zero zero two
- 1:00:14Speaker 1: seven and then Sick and then ilis liberate purity five
- 1:00:20Speaker 1: point fifteen people equals shit, the heretic anthem Iowa spit
- 1:00:24Speaker 1: it out, weight and Bleed and surfacing. It's a pretty
- 1:00:28Speaker 1: good mix, and I was particularly happy because I love
- 1:00:31Speaker 1: Eylis a lot. In fact, that is the song that
- 1:00:34Speaker 1: is the reason that I listened to Slipnot. Now. I
- 1:00:37Speaker 1: was driving with my family, like my mom and my
- 1:00:39Speaker 1: sister and brother somewhere in the New York area because
- 1:00:43Speaker 1: we were picking up the very cool metal station that
- 1:00:48Speaker 1: comes out of Seaton Hall in New Jersey called WSOU
- 1:00:51Speaker 1: but maybe you want to listen to. Honestly, I don't
- 1:00:53Speaker 1: know why I'm plugging them. They're not paying me or anything,
- 1:00:56Speaker 1: but I like them. So we were listening to that
- 1:00:58Speaker 1: because I always listened to because we always try to
- 1:01:00Speaker 1: listen to that when we can actually pick it up live,
- 1:01:03Speaker 1: and I list came on and me and my sister
- 1:01:07Speaker 1: were like, what the fuck is this song? And I
- 1:01:10Speaker 1: looked into it and realized it was Slipnot. And then
- 1:01:12Speaker 1: I was like, why have I just not listened to Slipnot?
- 1:01:14Speaker 1: So now you know about me and Slipno and q
- 1:01:18Speaker 1: Hayashida and slip Not on Slipno. So yeah, that made
- 1:01:22Speaker 1: me really happy. So I wanted to share it with you,
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: and I hope it made you happy to or that
- 1:01:28Speaker 1: you just hate everything now because you hate Slipnot, which
- 1:01:32Speaker 1: is mean. I think Slipnot is good. Yeah, that's all
- 1:01:37Speaker 1: I'm gonna say about it. But that's really all I
- 1:01:39Speaker 1: have to say in general about this episode. It's a
- 1:01:43Speaker 1: little bit fluffier than the previous one, obviously, which mostly
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: just a baseball game. So we'll see what happens from here.
- 1:01:51Speaker 1: But uh, Fujia could not save Matsu Mura, which sucks
- 1:01:54Speaker 1: for him. It really does. So anyway, I'm gonna go
- 1:01:58Speaker 1: do things. Oh today Thanksgiving. I think if you're listening
- 1:02:02Speaker 1: to this on Thursday, this is a Thanksgiving episode, So
- 1:02:05Speaker 1: I am thankful for I don't know if you for
- 1:02:09Speaker 1: listening to this podcast, I guess or something, and my
- 1:02:11Speaker 1: cat for just sneezing right then. And yeah, I hope
- 1:02:15Speaker 1: you have a really good Thanksgiving, or I hope you
- 1:02:17Speaker 1: had a really good Thanksgiving, or if you're not in
- 1:02:20Speaker 1: the US, I hope you had a really good Thursday.
- 1:02:24Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go and I hope you have a
- 1:02:27Speaker 1: really good whatever regardless, and later webs
