  the first time. If this is your first episode, welcome, Thank you
• 0:07
  so much for checking this little podcast out or massive podcast as it turns out.
• 0:12
  With this episode, it's another long one, but I couldn't cut anything
• 0:17
  else. There's nothing else that I wanted to cut. And if you're wondering
• 0:20
  where those bits that did get cut out end up, which you might be
• 0:23
  because you're hearing my voice in this little segment at the start, they are
• 0:27
  over at patreon dot com forward slash Gateleapers. That's where you can support this
• 0:32
  independently produced podcast and find full video versions of episodes. We started that this
• 0:37
  year, so this is our fifth full video, as well as some extra
• 0:41
  bits in the audio version, and not this intro at the start that you
• 0:46
  may have skipped. I mean, if you're hearing this part, I'm saying
• 0:50
  you haven't skipped and you're listening to what I have to say. But I
• 0:53
  think most people probably just skip this bit right the admin at the start they
• 0:57
  wait for the theme song. I'm dragging this out too much. This is
• 1:00
  a long episode. I've got to get right to it. As you can
• 1:02
  see from the title, This is our Sailor Moon episode, our first leap
• 1:06
  into the anime world. Kind of. We did Pokemon, but poke,
• 1:10
  I mean Pokemon transcends right, It's about the games as well. And as
• 1:14
  always, we brought a fantastic pair of guest players along with us. The
• 1:19
  returning player gate Leaper's Legend, Drew Schulman. He is a voice actor,

  look he's got many, many strings to his bow. Many strings to his
• 1:34
  bow? Is that what people say? He's got many strings and one of
• 1:38
  those is enamel pin designer, and so I put a link to Drew's Etsy
• 1:42
  store in the show notes. Check it out. There's such cute pins.

• 2:38
  So go ahead and do that right now, and then come back and
• 2:42
  listen to this a dive into the world of magical girls and cute boys.
• 2:47
  This is one of my favorite episodes ever. I feel like I've been saying
• 2:52
  that at the start of every one of these, but I mean it this
• 2:55
  time. I mean I meant it all the previous times as well, But
• 3:00
  honestly, just I just want to say thank you, thank you so much
• 3:05
  to anyone who has ever guested on this podcast, anyone who has come and
• 3:08
  played, thank you, to anyone who has listened, who has shared the
• 3:13
  episode with friends, with family members. All I want to do with my
• 3:17
  life is make silly pop culture games and be in a space where we can
• 3:22
  play them and then laugh together as we play them. That's all I want
• 3:25
  in life, and I get to do that every two weeks, and that's
• 3:30
  because of all of you, so thank you. Oh and speaking of every
• 3:34
  two weeks, I guess we're slightly changing that so we will still release two
• 3:38
  episodes every month. They will just be released on the second and fourth Thursdays
• 3:43
  of every month, without fail. We've never let you down so far,
• 3:46
  we won't ever. It's just about three or four times a year. There
• 3:51
  will be a three week gap between episodes, just to help with our production
• 3:54
  schedule a little bit, but there will still be twenty four episodes of gate
• 3:58
  Leapers every year, and then anything bonus that we do as well, So
• 4:02
  it'll be three weeks between now and the next episode. I'm so sorry to
• 4:06
  anyone who relies on this as a thing every two weeks. It's just lives
• 4:12
  get busy, and we want to ensure that every single episode we make is
• 4:15
  as good as this one, which I've already said is the best we've ever
• 4:20
  done. So without further ado, let's get straight to it. Apart from
• 4:26
  the previous five minutes of rambling, you've heard but now here. It is
• 4:29
  Gateleapers, Sailor Moon, Hello, and welcome to gate Leapers, the pop
• 4:51
  culture game show that shines a spotlight onto everyone's favorite fandoms. I am your
• 4:56
  games Master and giant Purple Smoke with a spooky face Matt Watson. But of
• 5:01
  course we can't step into this forgotten kingdom without our inner guardians and captains.
• 5:06
  First, she fights for love and those cute cats. It's Ultra Stevenson.
• 5:12
  It is me and he fights for love and being a cheeky pain in my
• 5:15
  ass. It's Jess and when Hello. Captains Ready for a series of games
• 5:23
  set in a groundbreaking nineties manga slash anime. Our first anime, Our first
• 5:28
  anime, I'm excited. Unfortunately, not an anime I'm super familiar with.
• 5:32
  I watched anime like nineties early two thousands as a kid, but it was
• 5:38
  very like it was very much a time where like it was gendered. It
• 5:42
  was like Dragon ball Z's for the boys, sailor Moons for the girls,
• 5:45
  and I saw it every now and then. A lot of my friends growing
• 5:47
  up watched it, but I I just tangentially knew about it, never watched
• 5:53
  myself. Yeah, you were a boy at the time, and they said
• 5:55
  no, boys only does allowed. Yeah, and as a man, I
• 5:59
  watched it the least likely demographic, hopefully, hopefully. All right, Audrey,
• 6:10
  you're making lots of sounds. Are you fully familiar with the Sailor Moon
• 6:13
  property? I am now sodly familiar with the Sailor Moon property. I've watched
• 6:19
  sounds confident most of season one. I have read a lot of Wikipedia's Um.
• 6:26
  It was something I couldn't watch as a youth because their power came from
• 6:30
  elsewhere. Their power did not come from the Lord of Yam and so yes,
• 6:36
  prayer hands. Their power did not come from the Lord, and so
• 6:40
  I was forbidden to watch Sailor Moon. I'm now more familiar. Okay,
• 6:46
  so the usual uldr story. Not allowed to watch you to the all powerful
• 6:49
  presence of Jesus Um, all like their other presence of Jesus Um. So
• 6:58
  yeah, it honestly, it sounds like you both need a little bit of
• 7:01
  help. So, Jason, who is your teammate today? She's the current
• 7:06
  undefeated gate Leaper's champion, which is great for me. She's our friend and
• 7:11
  yours. It's Jen Reagan. Hello Jenny, Hello guys, welcome back and
• 7:16
  absolute joy as always to have you on the podcast. But undefeated, are
• 7:20
  we? Yeah? Okay, I think you can check your own stats.
• 7:27
  Yeah, that's that's when I found out about this because famous leapers. Once
• 7:30
  the games are done, I don't care, but yeah, that was interesting
• 7:33
  to find out on stat leapers. I had no idea you were undefeated.
• 7:36
  So that's got a change, right, you know, I don't think it
• 7:42
  has too, Am. I I will do my darnedist to that, because
• 7:48
  I really love holding this over our friend's heads, as I am probably the
• 7:51
  least competitive, but I do love a good bit. Yeah, yeah,
• 7:56
  yeah, Yeah, that's it, isn't it. It's all about the bit.
• 7:58
  It's not about holding it over that it's in a competitive way, just
• 8:01
  in a way to make everyone laugh. Yeah, also piss off our friends
• 8:05
  that are more a little bit more competitive. Yes, yes, gets into
• 8:09
  their skin. Hello, Adam, So Sailor Moon, where is your knowledge
• 8:16
  at Jenny? You you well versed in sailor Moon. I would say,
• 8:18
  I don't know if I ever used the word well, but I've said this
• 8:22
  before and then like, yes, I'm first. It's the same as being
• 8:26
  like not overwhelmed or underwhelmed. I'm just whelmed. Yeah, I'm right somewhere
• 8:31
  in the mediocre middle. Um. I watched it as a kid, kind
• 8:35
  of to Jason's point that there was Dragon Ball Z and then there was Sailor
• 8:37
  Moon. I grew up in a Pokemon Yugimo Digimon household, and my sister
• 8:46
  and I got to have snippets of Snailer Moon, and you're mixed with that
• 8:50
  on Saturday mornings. My brother held the TV controller a lot, so got
• 8:56
  into all of those other More Boy Centrick shows, but always had r move,
• 9:01
  I exclaim. And then about a year ago, maybe you're year and
• 9:07
  a half ago, pandemic Time is weird high hyper fixated on it board and
• 9:16
  you know what happens when I do that, I become very well versed unstoppable
• 9:20
  Time, absolutely unstoppable. So went through Crystal on Netflix, couldn't get through
• 9:26
  the old ones because there's just too much fluff, picked up mangaf of it
• 9:31
  and just kind of ran with YouTube videos and lots of stuff. So all
• 9:35
  of this is like within the last two years of hyperfixating on it, but
• 9:39
  it came at the great time of just hitting me in the nostalgia. So
• 9:43
  yes, I that one. It sounds great, sounds like you're well prepared
• 9:46
  for your for your teammate. It raises the question of what sticks in the
• 9:50
  memory more the things you consume as a child or when you hyper fixate as
• 9:54
  an adult, And I think they're pretty tied for like how how often?
• 9:56
  Because I've still got like TV show the songs drilled into my head from being
• 10:01
  a kid, but like a Sailor the series which you will now perform live
• 10:09
  for us now, I don't know how to speak Jappie's. That's a start.
• 10:15
  That's that's the main reason why I'm not asking you to actually do that.
• 10:18
  Okay, brilliant, fantastic team. I think we've got here. But
• 10:22
  Uldra who is joining you. He's a podcaster, a voice actor, co
• 10:28
  host of Carrying Wayward, Fighting Evil by Moonlight, Finding Love by Daylight.
• 10:33
  It's Sailor Drew in the name of the Moon. I'm gonna play some games
• 10:37
  with you. I like the idea you did finger guns. After that,
• 10:43
  I liked the idea of like you transform and then they all have their pose
• 10:48
  and yours is just finger Oh god. There has been a running thing for
• 10:54
  a while on my podcast, Discord of me, getting back me getting into
• 10:58
  cosplays. I've always wanted to, jokingly being like, I'm just gonna Cause
• 11:01
  play a Sailor's cout. Yeah, yeah, I've always I've always wanted to
• 11:05
  as a child, which was another whole bucket of worms to get into.
• 11:07
  But it highly recommend best color blocking, easy to do. Yes, So,
• 11:13
  Drew, I mean, first of all, fantastic entrance. I love
• 11:16
  the I like the idea that I don't have to write intros for people anymore.
• 11:20
  I love that sent me this. I'm just good. I just message
• 11:28
  that. I'm like, who's my partner? I have things for them?
• 11:31
  Yes? Please? I love it so much. Drew, you mentioned wanting
• 11:35
  to cause play as a Saila guardian, but if you always wanted to,
• 11:39
  big fan, Yeah, I honestly was a fan of the show as a
• 11:43
  kid. Like we all talk about, kind of growing up a Dragon Ball
• 11:45
  or Sailor Moon. I found myself a lot more female friends in my youth,
• 11:50
  so I actually preferred Sailor Moon and that's what got me into other anime.
• 11:54
  That's good. And while I've kind of kept up like kind of like
• 11:58
  what's what's going on in the world of Sailor Moon? Like, oh,
• 12:01
  there's a new show. I'll watch it when I get a chance. But
• 12:03
  for me, it really is that like childhood nostalgia, that old show,
• 12:07
  you know, kind of rediscovering it like late high school and realizing like,
• 12:11
  oh those because of the way it was translated, there's these different things from
• 12:13
  Japan versus the American version, namely the queer romances they cover. They're goans.
• 12:22
  It's not in sstual in Alabama. Maybe their cousins. We're in America.
• 12:28
  That's fine, but queer representation, oh not on my TV? Yes,
• 12:33
  no, So I'm well well versed. I'll be very nostalgic. So
• 12:39
  we'll see how much of the finer details actually stick. Yes, and maybe
• 12:43
  we can test what memory works better. Is it an adult hyperfixation or is
• 12:46
  it childhood nostalgia? Yeah, this is an ulterior motive today's episode. I
• 12:54
  love it, and to defeat Jen. It's mainly to defeat Jen, which
• 12:58
  I'm like again like putting me on the spot, our first time playing,
• 13:01
  and I'm finding out I'm away against a champion here, So I guess at
• 13:05
  least this means if I lose, it's not like as out there. It's
• 13:07
  like, well, it's jed, You're gonna lose, Like, okay,
• 13:11
  at least I don't think the odds were stacked against you. But at the
• 13:13
  same time, I mean, you take me down, You've taken down the
• 13:18
  champ, and if you don't, then you get the like but she's the
• 13:22
  champ, so yeah, yeah, that's it. No expectations, but I
• 13:24
  come out on top either way. Yeah, when incredible before we move on,
• 13:30
  and I might cut this from the audio, but this right here,
• 13:33
  these these five people right here, I'm including myself in it. This is
• 13:37
  it. This is the gate Leapers team. I love this so much,
• 13:41
  and I've got to say it out loud, like if someone had a gun
• 13:43
  to my head and was like, this is going to be a permanent show.
• 13:46
  You can't have rotating guests, choose your casts right now, it would
• 13:48
  absolutely be this. I love this group so much. This is Pete gate
• 13:52
  Leapers for me. So this is going to be a very special episode for
• 13:54
  me. It's my heart and I will admit like listening to the show because
• 13:58
  again, since we first got introduced through you emailing us and going back through
• 14:03
  most of the backlog and then pretty much consistently listening to everything there was a
• 14:07
  kind of like certain names that stuck out of like I can't wait to face
• 14:09
  them one day and just sort of like getting more of the inner circle.
• 14:13
  And you were on that list. We were there back in the studio when
• 14:20
  it was the basement edge. We had a sunlight lamp a lot. It
• 14:28
  was a sad room to be in dark basement room and its conception. Look
• 14:33
  at you now, we're the oil table all the way at the top.
• 14:37
  No look of paying to make a podcast. Okay, teams, you've arrived
• 14:41
  at school and your life and friends are just so boring and basic. I
• 14:46
  know, how about you give yourselves a snappy team name to make your lives
• 14:50
  a little more exciting. So let's begin with Jen and Jason. Yes,
• 14:56
  okay, so I'm completely relying on Jen here for a good team name and
• 15:00
  knowledge, but I have some bad ones that I I want to hear them.
• 15:05
  Yeah. So sailor butts because that's what a moon is, just out
• 15:09
  there, Yeah, just right out right out the gate. I thought the
• 15:15
  joke was just going to be the joke of butts to moon someone. This
• 15:18
  is uh, there's sailor. That's not a moon, that's a space station.
• 15:28
  That's our whole team name, yeah, including the Star Wars bit.
• 15:31
  Okay, yeah, and then this is just I thought this was funny because
• 15:33
  I know this would irk Jen a little bit. Semen Moon. Yeah,
• 15:41
  so those aren't going anywhere, and that at the end, I'm not doing
• 15:46
  a quick fire round and yelling semen. So three most perfect puts I could
• 15:54
  think of for this. Thank you. I'm so proud of you. I
• 15:56
  worked really hard on making them bad. Um. So Jen, what's what's
• 16:00
  your idea is? Because we're not saying those. I love those. I
• 16:08
  like the Star Wars reference. It's a little wordy, but you got to
• 16:14
  get the whole quote in Yeah. One that came up because I kind of
• 16:18
  forgot that I was paired with Jason, that me and Matt had this conversation.
• 16:23
  But Audrey and I had been talking about taking your Sailor Scout quiz um
• 16:27
  and she got Sailor Moon and we were talking about that and I took it
• 16:30
  and I also got Sailor Moon. And I think it's because I mentioned crying
• 16:33
  too much in my responses Udeo games. Yeah, they're like, how do
• 16:40
  you process things? Is it by laying in bed and crying into a pillow
• 16:42
  and I was like yeah, and then I so it double dipped, but
• 16:48
  it could also work. Um. So in the new Sailor Moon Crystal the
• 16:52
  theme song. Even though the nineties one is superior, the new one is
• 16:56
  pretty good. Um. The first two were our Moon Pride, and so
• 17:00
  I thought that was cute because we were both Moon and then Pride. But
• 17:06
  then, like I forgot, I was with Jason, so we could STARp
• 17:10
  so bored. I think straight, it's not It's not your fault, cha,
• 17:15
  I think Moon Pride is a really good team. Yeah. I liked
• 17:18
  Moon Pride because it's easy to say, yeah, Sailor Moon, it's referencing
• 17:22
  the new one, which I'm more familiar with. So that was my So
• 17:25
  we're kind of between Sailor Butts and Moon Pride. Choice but right almost no
• 17:34
  reference to Sailor Sailor parts of it. Look, it's your obviously, it's
• 17:41
  your choice as a duo. There's a third option that has been suggested by
• 17:45
  Drew that is also what do you think, Jason, I'm really loving but
• 17:51
  Pride. Can we compromise with Sailor Butts? Yeah we can. We can
• 18:00
  problematic in a different way, all right, Sailor Butts. Sailor Butts that
• 18:06
  is going to be on the podcast title, but the previous three minutes of
• 18:10
  conversations any sense, that's okay, Sailor but it is a proper it's another
• 18:15
  sailor. Yeah, sailor Sailor from the planet. But so Uranus background,
• 18:25
  which is where my outfit is inspired from. Also because is the most like
• 18:30
  gender queer fashion icon. Yes, and she has an outfit where she's in
• 18:37
  a long black blazer and then a white tank and a black mini and it's
• 18:41
  cute to sell. So I went, is that the one is Sailor Uranus,
• 18:47
  the one from the meme where it's like, Hi, you're attracted to
• 18:49
  me and that makes you gay? Yeah? Pretty sure it is. Yeah
• 18:56
  they are non binary. Yeah, I love it. Stastic. So we've
• 19:00
  got Saila Butts. Yeah, let's find out whose sailor butts will be facing
• 19:03
  d and during. I really put so much thought into my intro and my
• 19:07
  muse. I forgot to think about team names, but I do kind of
• 19:11
  have one. Yes, tell me, mine are all boring, Like I
• 19:14
  think it's like Luna and Artemis are the cats, and I was also thinking
• 19:18
  Tuxedo and mask. Okay, I didn't go into any of those four,
• 19:22
  but I do love all them. Is where my brain was ticking. Yeah,
• 19:26
  I always kind of love the fact that the name Usagi means bunny rabbit.
• 19:33
  They're long story, short Japanese lessons about a rabbit on the moon.
• 19:37
  So I thought moon Bunny was just a really cute name. Bunny bunny,
• 19:41
  very good. I like that. I can't think of it anything better than
• 19:47
  that, because mine minor or like sailor Scouts or Sailor Guardians or Inner Guardians
• 19:52
  or outer like, it's tough. There's like so many little pieces to pull
• 19:56
  from. Yeah, just mounting goat moon buntis Well, it's so funny that
• 20:03
  you say that, like there's too many things. I was just watching an
• 20:06
  episode about Moogan Academy, and I was like, Moogan Academy, what a
• 20:08
  name. I'm just like after one of the schools. There's so many.
• 20:14
  Now, I love this moon bunny versus sailor butts. They're very cute,
• 20:18
  cute names. I feel, very cute show. Yeah it all fits.
• 20:23
  Yeah, Yeah, we're all we're obviously cute. Dree, you don't have
• 20:26
  to say that. We're all just very cute but thank you anyway. And
• 20:30
  if you're not a patront you're not seeing us on camera, you're just missing
• 20:33
  animzut missing out. And hey, if you're listening to this and thinking,
• 20:37
  well, those opening jokes were moderately funny. But I don't know anything about
• 20:40
  Sailor Moon, and I'm not sure how interested I am in a nautical themed
• 20:44
  Japanese animation. Don't worry. Here's Audra with a little segment we like to
• 20:48
  call passing knowledge. Pretty Guardian. Sailor Moon started as a magical girl genre
• 20:57
  manga which we're from nineteen ninety one to nineteen ninety seven. This mango was
• 21:03
  adapted into an anime series, also broadcast in the nineties. If you don't
• 21:07
  know what a magical girl genre is, imagine a young girl. Now imagine
• 21:11
  that that young girl has magic. Look at you learning from context clues.
• 21:18
  My name is Luna, and I have been searching for you for a very
• 21:22
  long time. You are the chosen one, and I have been sent here
• 21:25
  to guide you on the path to your ultimate destiny. Sailor Moon is the
• 21:27
  story of Usagi, a middle school girl who finds out she's actually a superhero
• 21:33
  style magical guardian of the universe, who is actually a princess of the Moon
• 21:37
  who is actually soul mates with someone weirdly older than her. But that's okay
• 21:41
  because they are actually thousands of years old. Oh that's a lot to process.
• 21:45
  That's why the mame comes from. Then, okay, Sailor Moon,
• 21:51
  even though you're cry baby and and irresponsible, winer and go away, mors
• 21:56
  I don't make this note. Originally intended as a property for young girls,
• 22:00
  it has transcended by promoting friendship, self confidence, and standing up for what's
• 22:06
  right, with each Sailor Guardian having a different sphere of guardianship. It shows
• 22:10
  that there are so many equally valid and wonderful paths for young girls, as
• 22:15
  long as that path includes both being pretty and fighting for love first and foremost,
• 22:19
  and then a secondary thing after that. But it was the nineties,
• 22:25
  and so we're doing pretty good and the Guardian. The wildly popular franchise also
• 22:33
  included three animated feature films during its original run, a live action television adaptations,
• 22:40
  Wild and a second anime series in twenty fourteen that spawned two films in
• 22:45
  twenty twenty one, two more coming in twenty twenty three, which Let's be
• 22:48
  honest, these will mostly be watched by adult bisexual women. Longer find a
• 22:56
  rich handsomnsol proof can I'll be taking care. That's what running we ever,
• 23:02
  warn't. I've heard enough. It's time to leave. So let's transform and
• 23:07
  run headlong into the fandom that is Sailor Moon, Moon, Prism, power,
• 23:11
  gay Leap. Yes, I did a thing. You matched out branding.
• 23:18
  Thank you so much, so good, beautiful, so well done.
• 23:25
  Yeah, fantastic, Thank you so much all draw I hope that call everyone
• 23:27
  up on Sailor Moon. And if it didn't stick with us anyway, just
• 23:32
  before we get to the games, I've asked each player to bring a muse,
• 23:37
  something that inspires them or something they love from this particular fandom. So
• 23:41
  we'll begin with Jason, what's inspiring you from Sailor Moon? So? I
• 23:44
  tried to look this up as a concept because it happens a lot. And
• 23:48
  what I really love about Sailor Moon is the color coding of the characters to
• 23:52
  make them very identifiable, very distinct. And then that also like transfers over
• 23:59
  to their personnel. So like Mercury is the smart, nerdy one, Mars
• 24:03
  is just beautiful. Uh, go on. Yeh, Yeah, Jupiter is
• 24:10
  strong Michelangelo. It's the rude party dude, like all the types of people.
• 24:15
  Yeah, exactly as a as a as a background too, I watched.
• 24:19
  I mentioned that I watched this series as a full adult man, and
• 24:25
  that's because Jen recommended it to us during the pandemic. So I remember these
• 24:29
  characters over a year past now, and that's because of that. Also,
• 24:34
  Jen mentioned that she's her outfit is based on Uranus. My outfit is a
• 24:38
  little Jupiter green. I like Jupiter a lot. Nice. Yeah, color
• 24:44
  coating, the green and pink. Yeah, he's the little frogs on you.
• 24:47
  Yes, it's very kawhie uh. And I like Jupiter a lot.
• 24:51
  She's just a big tough lady but also very feminine and I like those.
• 24:56
  You can be both, Yeah, you can be both for your own princess.
• 25:00
  Yeah, So color coating is very cool. I like that Teenager Ninja,
• 25:06
  Turtles, Mighty more from Power Rangers, all the things. Yeah,
• 25:08
  makes it easy. Yeah. And all of the sailors like they have the
• 25:12
  color coating, They have like distinct hairstyles. Each one of them has distinct
• 25:18
  like yeah, from the both either from the color coating, or from the
• 25:22
  silhouette, you could identify each sailor and so being able to like watch the
• 25:26
  show and be like, that's that one. Yeah, while they're all in
• 25:29
  uniform, you can tell this is a sailor Guardian, Like you can tell
• 25:33
  immediately, but you also have really identifying features to know which one. Yeah,
• 25:38
  it's very cool. I like good, it's a good concept in TV
• 25:41
  shows. It applies to this one good news, good thing to be inspired
• 25:45
  by, Jason, thank you, thank you. That's to be voting over
• 25:48
  to your teammates, Jen, what inspires you from Sailor Moon? Yeah,
• 25:51
  I was like thinking about a couple of different things and a shout out to
• 25:56
  like the bringing it back from for Netflix, the fact that it's a little
• 26:00
  closer to the manga, so it comes a little quickly, a little bit
• 26:03
  more quickly than the original series. That like, for instance, in the
• 26:08
  original series, you meet Sailor Moon in episode one, you meet Mercury in
• 26:11
  episode seven. Wow, in episode two, you meet Mercury in the Crystal
• 26:18
  version, so like on you know, they're keeping on pace a little bit
• 26:22
  more. It keeps your attention a little bit more. But they were also
• 26:25
  a fifteen minute snippets or twenty minute snippets that were on Saturday morning cartoons,
• 26:30
  so it was just a different way that you were consuming them. Definitely,
• 26:33
  Yeah, but an appreciation of like during pandemic times to just find something to
• 26:38
  like Hella binghon but then also be it something super nostalgic that like I was
• 26:44
  like six watching it, so I don't remember storylines or plots. I remember
• 26:48
  hair and names and what their powers were and their outfits and the theme song
• 26:55
  and things like that, but like it was lost on me all of the
• 26:57
  bad guy stuff and like what was going on. Um, So to kind
• 27:02
  of have that like really warm, fuzzy like throwback during like sad times,
• 27:07
  it was really nice. So the side note, honorable mention, aside,
• 27:12
  your muse, the thing that inspires you is the COVID nineteen pandemic, So
• 27:18
  you wow, the loops get it. I get it. Show binging something
• 27:29
  nostalgic, comfortable during rough times that is definitely worth being inspired over. So
• 27:34
  yes, great, muse, Sorry I poked funded it for a second.
• 27:40
  I just don't want people to think that I was cherishing the COVID nineteen.
• 27:44
  Yeah. Yeah, no, Nostalgia is a is a big thing. I'd
• 27:48
  say it makes up forty percent of this entire podcast. Okay, let's move
• 27:52
  on over to the Moon Bunnies and we will begin with Drew. Drew,
• 27:57
  what's inspiring you. Mine's a bit of a long one, but I was
• 28:02
  thinking of a few different things, and something came up and reminded me of
• 28:06
  like how important the show really was to me as a child. So to
• 28:08
  go a little bit of roundabout way for the story listening to a different podcast,
• 28:14
  specifically one about queer identification with Pokemon, which very often the show would
• 28:19
  slip into Sailor Moon being the other show that young queer boys were into,
• 28:25
  and a lot of these queer icons drag queens and other people in the queer
• 28:29
  community having these identifying moments with like being a fan of Sailor Moon and me
• 28:33
  sitting there in the car on a drive. I'm going I had a lot
• 28:34
  of these same moments, which then led to a conversation with my wife and
• 28:40
  my co host Mary even carrying a wayward and then the realization of like,
• 28:45
  oh, yeah, I am pan sexual, I am queer. Okay,
• 28:48
  that's a thing. So my muse is growing up as a young queer boy,
• 28:53
  not realizing it and realizing so many years later, I was queer because
• 28:57
  of Sailor Moon. Thank you. That's why when you when you made the
• 29:03
  joke about like, you know, the show mostly being watched by like uh
• 29:07
  by, like elder by women, and I'm like close enough, I almost
• 29:12
  there was a draft of it where it was mostly being watched by people who
• 29:17
  didn't know they were queer until they were adults. But it wasn't quite as
• 29:19
  snappy. It wasn't as snappy what I mean. But yeah, even with
• 29:27
  like there were characters in the original version that were like this is a gay
• 29:33
  couple, um, and like a lot more LGBTQ elements in the original,
• 29:40
  it still had enough like coding and enough elements that could be latched onto in
• 29:47
  a really good way. Yes, so hell yeah Sailor Moon. Yes,
• 29:52
  that is a fantastic muse. I like that. It's definitely an identifiable thing,
• 29:59
  like it's a common thing of like the media that was slightly non hegemonic.
• 30:03
  Is usually the thing you called back to is like, ah, yes,
• 30:07
  that's when I first discovered that I felt this way, and maybe I
• 30:10
  didn't have the words for it until some lovely queer people were saying it on
• 30:14
  a podcast, but the feelings they were valid from Yeah, so yeah,
• 30:18
  that's a great news. That's a great news. Thank you. And finally,
• 30:22
  Audra, you're a new Sailor Moon fan. I am. Do you
• 30:26
  have a muse? Yes? Before I do my mus for this episode,
• 30:30
  I would like to amend a previous muse. In a previous mus I made
• 30:33
  a list of my top ten favorite animated cats cutest animated cats, and in
• 30:41
  my scouring of the internet, in my mind, Luna didn't come up for
• 30:45
  some fucking reason, So I'm going to have to amend that previous Muskovu from
• 30:56
  Lion King two. It was between Covu from Lion King two and Sergeant TIBs
• 31:02
  from one hundred and one Dalmatians. But Kofu from Lyoner two is going to
• 31:07
  be removed and is going to be replaced with Luna from Sailor Moon. So,
• 31:12
  now that the admin is out of the way, my views is Sailor
• 31:17
  Pluto. I love the different elements of the different Sailors and I haven't even
• 31:27
  gotten to Sailor Pluto in the show, but finding out from being like,
• 31:32
  okay, but who are all of the other planets sailor Pluto like a scientist.
• 31:37
  A lot of the imagery with her is like in a lab coat,
• 31:41
  and so it really highlights both as a child and as an adult woman,
• 31:45
  the different paths that girls can go down, because you can make all of
• 31:51
  the barbies you want in astronaut costumes. But it just doesn't it just doesn't
• 31:57
  hit as hard as like she's actually working on a computer and like, oh
• 32:02
  yeah, image, Oh I've got to figure this out in the lab.
• 32:05
  That type of active representation for young girls in the sciences is really fucking important
• 32:12
  to me. Um. Also, I looked and she has like three or
• 32:15
  four really iconic outfits and I own three of those. I have the items
• 32:23
  of that irony is not lost on man to me, what iconic ones,
• 32:30
  I'm doing it now. You're wearing one right now. The one that I
• 32:35
  saw on a lot of things is like pastel purple top, black like pleated
• 32:38
  skirt, lab coat, half of her hair in a bunt. So I'm
• 32:45
  doing it. The show is incredible. Hell yeah, maybe smash top black
• 32:50
  bra that's one of the ones I own with the black shorts of the chain.
• 32:53
  Yeah, oh, there we go. Two very different sides of her
• 32:59
  that I just make it an amazing character. Yeah. I found it interesting
• 33:02
  how much more well fleshed out the Outer Guardians were compared to the Inner Guardians.
• 33:07
  That was like a huge thing in the research, Like they're full adults,
• 33:09
  well a lot of them are. Yeah, they're at least at university,
• 33:13
  and they kill it. And I think it's really cool to see the
• 33:17
  outer planets as an adult, and maybe some of that sunken. Maybe it
• 33:22
  didn't. Maybe it's just cool to see now it's more a validation, but
• 33:25
  like to see like Neptune being musical and like really enter like I'm pretty sure
• 33:30
  placed the violin, and then like Uranus being the gender queer like why does
• 33:35
  my sex matter? Like literally quoted, and then like Pluto being like the
• 33:38
  stem outer planet, Like seeing just different variations and fully fleshed out whole characters
• 33:45
  that aren't just like I'm pretty like it's really it's really cool, like this
• 33:51
  is this is what people are watching now, and like you get to have
• 33:53
  those like that's what I can aspire to. Yeah, it really feels like
• 33:58
  the show at least when like the original nineties one, the Inner Planet Scouts
• 34:01
  were always designed to be like not blank slates per se, but kind of
• 34:05
  like as vague as possible that anyone can kind of go like, oh that's
• 34:09
  me, yes, and then the outer were more to be like aspirational,
• 34:14
  like that's what I could be one day. Yeah, that's a good way
• 34:15
  of putting it. Yeah, I'm smarter. I like plants versus like I'm
• 34:21
  a scientist to now. Yeah. Yeah, and honestly, Pluto and I
• 34:24
  connect. Also neither of us are planets. I go, yes, Atre
• 34:31
  is not a planet. Good point. Thought that was a good old bit.
• 34:38
  Took me a second fucking life. Okay, thank you. I appreciate
• 34:43
  that that was a good news. That was a fantastic news. Ultra.
• 34:45
  Yeah, I love that. We've got so many people soft cause playing for
• 34:49
  this record. So I'll do the Patreon plug. Now, I didn't think
• 34:52
  I Drew, don't worry about it. It's you and I. We didn't
• 34:54
  get the memo. You know. I had a tuxedo and I just didn't
• 34:58
  put it on today, and I had a mask. Flowers can bind.
• 35:08
  That's just for the patrons Patreon dot com forward slash gate leapers. I will
• 35:10
  promote it later in the show. Now, I'm not wearing about to have
• 35:14
  all the pins. Hell, yeah, all the all five of the inners
• 35:20
  like that? Wow? Okay, everyone, are we ready for some games?
• 35:23
  Should play some games? Right, Teams, A precocious cat has approached
• 35:28
  us and she's about to change our lives forever. Let's see what she has
• 35:31
  planned for our destiny in round one. Round one is called merch Table.
• 35:43
  In this game, I will offer each of our teams a list of merchandise
• 35:45
  relating to Sailor Moon. All they have to do is guess whether the item
• 35:50
  is worth more or less than the previous item on the list. The Horrible
• 35:54
  gate Leapers twist, we won't be using our RP receive received pronunciation. No,
• 36:01
  we'll be using the listed prices on Etsy and Facebook marketplace. And to
• 36:08
  decide which team gets which list, I have a question for both teams,
• 36:14
  what is the value in US dollars of the Sailor Moon franchise? Oh,
• 36:21
  team with the closest answer gets to pick their list. So let's begin with
• 36:25
  Sailor Butts just remembered that's the thing. Yeah, So I don't know anything
• 36:31
  about Sailor Moon and its value. However, a reference point that I have
• 36:37
  is that some years ago I found out that the Power Rangers franchise is worth
• 36:40
  about twenty to thirty million dollars, a bit lower than I would expect,
• 36:46
  but that's Power Rangers at twenty thirty mill. So yeah, and my commentary
• 36:53
  was going to be that though for us being a very specific grouping that are
• 37:00
  like hell yeah, Sailor Moon. Yeah, it wasn't why it's bread or
• 37:05
  like it had it's ebbed. I mean the show came back in twenty fourteen
• 37:07
  after nineteen ninety seven, so yes, it's continuation has only been in the
• 37:13
  super fans and not as like teenagement. I can't ever say teenage you're okay,
• 37:19
  yeah, no one needs to do. And it's kind of far like
• 37:22
  Dragon ball Z, Like the fans of Dragon ball Z have kept somehow dragon
• 37:24
  alive for the like the last forty years. So I would say it's lower
• 37:29
  than we're expecting. Okay, so lower than Hower Rangers. Fifteen mil.
• 37:36
  Let's go, fifteen mil, fifteen mil, fifteen million you say in fifteen
• 37:38
  million US dollars, Yeah, okay, let's go. If Sailor Moon is
• 37:43
  like two hundred thousand dollars, someone by your money and buy it, sell
• 37:50
  your house, and so fifteen million is the opening gam yeah, one,
• 38:00
  five, Yeah, let's let's throw things over to the moon bunnies. So
• 38:05
  I think it's gonna be higher. I think it's going to be higher too,
• 38:07
  because I understand that Power Rangers are like a thing, but I can't
• 38:12
  remember. Is there anything recent that's come out? Oh yeah, I know
• 38:15
  it's been going NonStop. They've never had they haven't taken a break yet,
• 38:19
  but they've been like stopped. But they've been like bought and sold multiple times,
• 38:23
  so they hit like really lows and then they get sold from one coming.
• 38:27
  I think Fox had them, and then Disney had them, and now
• 38:30
  there was another. Like they keep like they keep having like weird dips and
• 38:34
  then going back up. But Power Rangers as a franchise is really only in
• 38:38
  America because Japan. It's based off the Japanese property that is separate where a
• 38:44
  sailor moon has America and the rest of the world, and it's fu casting
• 38:47
  type of situation. I do think it's worth more because I think people underestimate
• 38:53
  the buying power of young girls. Like young girls don't have money, but
• 38:59
  the amount to money that their parents will give them is equivalent, if not
• 39:04
  more two young boys, because young girls keep their grapes up. This is
• 39:08
  true. I'll admit, like the game of occasion here is we have to
• 39:15
  say anything above fifteen and we're gonna be safe. But I wouldn't even like
• 39:20
  comfortably put like forty five mil WHOA forty five million dollars? Whoa from the
• 39:25
  moon bunnies? I will reveal the correct answer, and remember this is the
• 39:29
  this is assuming Okay with that, I hope it's thirty yeah, and we're
• 39:36
  so let's let's say forty four. Just I mean, at the end of
• 39:38
  the day, which math let me let me do the maths on who's closest.
• 39:45
  When the value of the Sailor Moon franchise is thirteen point nine billion dollars,
• 39:51
  it is a million dollars franchise. It is one of the most popular
• 39:54
  franchises in Japan that still sells the same way that Like I was gonna say,
• 39:59
  poke one that's also a Japanese franchise. But you know how there's like
• 40:01
  tons of Pokemon much installs at all times. That's what the world's largest franchise
• 40:07
  right now, I believe. So it is surprised me the drawers of Pokemon
• 40:10
  cards we have right now. This does not that surprise me. After the
• 40:15
  show all point the shelf here is all Pokemon crap. This is the valuation
• 40:20
  as of like January twenty twenty three, so it is very modern and it
• 40:22
  counts for things, and I think there's lots of kind media rights. Synal,
• 40:27
  I knew like it was still in Japan. I just didn't realize it
• 40:30
  was still currve. Yeah, movies are coming out in twenty twenty three making
• 40:35
  a killing on Netflix. I think it's massive in the same way that Disney
• 40:38
  is massive here, like Wow, I underestimated this, So with that,
• 40:45
  I think it's so good for the next round. Jason, I think we're
• 40:50
  My immediate instinct was two hundred and fifty million, and that's still wildly yeah.
• 41:00
  Yeah, but also is bad with money, So like for me,
• 41:02
  concept isn't a WWE trying to sell for nine billion dollars and so Sailor Moon
• 41:08
  way, I can believe that that it's more than Wow, is that it's
• 41:14
  the global stuff Sailor Moon should buy. Ww you imagine the game coming in
• 41:20
  with a magical girl transformation. Oh yes, please God in the middle of
• 41:25
  your your whole like last finisher as you going into your make your makeup,
• 41:31
  and have you guys ever seen the live action transformation sequences? Though, oh
• 41:37
  my gosh that was in the deep dive. I did like whatever, horr
• 41:40
  many times this live action thing that happened cock killed so fast because it was
• 41:47
  so bad. It was bad. They have since also done stage versions events
• 41:53
  stage in like blue star suits. Yeah, into the background a crap be
• 42:00
  galaxy print morph suit? Where did you lift her up and like take off
• 42:04
  her boot covers? Have this audio? But like, show a clip of
• 42:09
  that stage version please? I did do video edits right well with that with
• 42:15
  the valuation, I believe it was the moon bunnies who were technically closest.
• 42:19
  So would you like the list from Etsy, which is largely homemade or cottage
• 42:22
  industry products, or would you like Facebook Marketplace, which is largely official merch
• 42:28
  but used and old I hate though you're wrong? Yeah, um, do
• 42:35
  you lean one way or the other? Audre probably Etsy. I feel the
• 42:39
  same way. I think I'm more for the Etsy stuff. Okay, you
• 42:43
  have chosen the Etsy list, so we will run through your entire lists and
• 42:47
  then throw things over to sailor butts for a Facebook marketplace list. So your
• 42:52
  first item, if you're pretty much close to this, I'll give you a
• 42:55
  point just for the opening gambit. This is on Etsy La Moon Canvas tote
• 43:00
  bag, throw a price. If you're close, I'll give you a point
• 43:04
  for no reason. In particular, I've been researching the prices of tote bags
• 43:07
  recently for some reasons. Not dig into that. Um, they tend to
• 43:14
  be like the low end is twenty five, the high end is forty.
• 43:17
  Oh my god, I was thinking thirty thirties are pretty safe. Yeah,
• 43:23
  thirty or thirty five in that since you're saying two thirty two, no opening
• 43:32
  point there. Although I'm sure your market research is more accurate. This is
• 43:36
  just a bogain nineteen dollars and ninety cents for a Salamon tote bag. Get
• 43:39
  it while stocks last. So your next item, I'm simply looking for higher
• 43:45
  or lower from now on. Okay, So is it higher or lower than
• 43:47
  nineteen ninety Moon Prism Power color changing cold cup twenty four ounces? Oh that's
• 43:53
  kind of cool. Twenty four ounces. I would lean higher. I feel
• 43:59
  like that's a pretty cool him and those like color changing things always like increase
• 44:01
  the value. I'd probably pay more than twenty for that, So I'm going
• 44:06
  to go higher as well. Yeah higher, you're saying, Hi, it's
• 44:08
  actually lower. Got bargains today? This is my dollars. Wow, don't
• 44:16
  mind me, just this et cellars are listening this. This could be a
• 44:22
  sponsored round if you're get in touch. Yeah, capitalism is popping off today,
• 44:27
  ladies, Oh my god, capitalism. What's the sailor guardian for capitalist?
• 44:38
  Captain America Sailor gold Sex. I was just gonna say, wicked lady,
• 44:50
  old valid dancers. Okay, so higher a lower than fifteen dollars three
• 44:53
  D print Saila Venus inspired sailor Moon Transformation, one star stick cosplay prop,
• 45:00
  Halloween scepter. They were going for that, SEO. I mean, we're
• 45:07
  getting to a point now where it's already pretty low. I think it has
• 45:09
  to be higher, but that's just me. Eventually it's got to go up.
• 45:13
  Right. The last item he gives us at a penny, I will,
• 45:19
  I will pay you to take this item from me. Um, Let's
• 45:23
  go higher, Let's go high. Yeah, this is higher. This is
• 45:28
  thirty five dollars for this three D printed prop with all those words that I'm
• 45:30
  not going to repeat that's pretty fair. Yeah, yeah, it seems like
• 45:36
  it was painted as well. Okay, yeah, definitely, Yeah, someone
• 45:38
  put time and effort into that. Yeah, thirty five bucks. So is
• 45:43
  this next item higher or lower than that Moon power glass pipe? Oh?
• 45:51
  That just sounds like you don't want to say the word bawling because it's you
• 45:53
  don't want to get like a strike against you. Certainly they're using some clever
• 45:58
  language, are different than the c O one, but still to avoid that's
• 46:01
  an awesome themed pipe as well. I was just thinking that, did you
• 46:07
  say this actually is a really well designed, nice glass pipe? I was
• 46:12
  like, yeah, if I was a fan of say La Moon, i'd
• 46:14
  want this. Yeah, and I still feel like glass is always expensive because
• 46:17
  it's like actually like crafted stuff. So currently, Chris, I'm tempted to
• 46:21
  just keep keep saying higher, Well, we'll balance out. Yeah, let's
• 46:25
  let's go higher, going also instart joke about going higher on a bong.
• 46:34
  It's there, and I'm gonna be giving you the point as well for twenty
• 46:37
  blaze. It not for twenty points, that'd be ridiculous. This is forty
• 46:40
  eight dollars for this class pipe. That's not bad. Yeah, what I
• 46:45
  was expecting. Yeah, yeah, it will depend on the sizing. If
• 46:47
  it's a one hitter, so it's like a bong. No, it's not
• 46:50
  a bong. It's like a handheld glass pipe, which I know for most
• 46:53
  people as a one hitter, but for me, I can nurse that.
• 46:55
  Yeah, yeah, yeah, same, your next item higher or lower than
• 47:00
  forty eight dollars. I'm a Garoomi doll. Sailor Moon crochetty to look on
• 47:07
  her face like she's googled this before and like she knows thisifs like I just
• 47:13
  ordered that. No, Jen and I are crochet friends. We do meet
• 47:17
  weekly for a video call to crochet. You can just say lesbian, you
• 47:21
  know, Okay, Now show Sailor Moon made it. Okay, shout out
• 47:30
  to my crochet ladies in the nineteen fifties. I know what you were in.
• 47:36
  The craft is very different. I mean also again, just recently bought
• 47:42
  two crochet plushes off of that scene. Depending on the size one the really
• 47:47
  really small one was forty, the really really big one was one hundred and
• 47:51
  twenty. So let's go, let's go higher than Yeah, it's depending on
• 47:54
  the price. Like doing if you're doing limbs, you're probably a little large
• 47:59
  like the one for foury I half is like basically a ball with some stuff
• 48:01
  stuck to it. It's super adorable, but it's tiny. So yeah,
• 48:05
  it's going to be at least like fifty sixty bucks minimum, so it takes
• 48:07
  time. Let's yeah, then let's go higher. Going higher than forty eight
• 48:12
  dollars. It is not there's some bargain. It is in the Sailor mood
• 48:16
  community. It is forty seven sixteen. It is craft just like the item.
• 48:27
  Yeah, okay, I have one final item on your list? Is
• 48:30
  it higher or lower than forty seven dollars and sixteen cents preorder? That's in
• 48:36
  all caps preorder on Etsy Sailor Moon D twenty single dice. Before you said
• 48:45
  that, I was already thinking, I wonder if there's Sailor, Moon D
• 48:49
  and D dice. Now are you just building my Christmas list? I'm actually
• 48:52
  yeah. I was just looking at who the seller is on all this,
• 48:55
  and it says Jen Reagan is the seller of all these items, I mean
• 49:01
  d twenties. Even the really nice, like properly handmade ones are never that
• 49:06
  expensive, like max thirty bucks. I can't imagine as being like even forty
• 49:12
  five I'd be a little shocked for a single D twenty. This is on
• 49:15
  pre order Drew, which means should be a little less. Let's go less.
• 49:22
  Yeah, I'm gonna go less. I think I think I have seen
• 49:25
  some D twenties that are like a little that are this price or a tiny
• 49:30
  bit more, But most of the ones that I think are reasonable if you
• 49:32
  want it to sell. So yeah, like, I'm not paying more than
• 49:37
  forty bucks for a single D twenty unless it's like really pristine, like metal
• 49:43
  crafted, something really francy. Yeah, so you're saying, you're saying less
• 49:45
  less than forty seven, then you will you will not be buying this dice
• 49:49
  Drew because it is less. You are correct for the point, but it's
• 49:52
  forty four dollars in six cents for a single. I want to look it
• 49:57
  up, but can you share this a yeah? Thank you? Our next
• 50:04
  secret Santo planned. Okay, shall we go back and have a list for
• 50:12
  the sailor Butts Sailor, but you are stuck with the Facebook marketplace. I'm
• 50:17
  afraid, so sorry. I know you are looking at that Etsy list like
• 50:21
  I want these, But let's look at some used official merchandise. Okay,
• 50:25
  we will begin with something very simple, probably one of the most popular pieces
• 50:30
  of merchandise, Sailor Moon costume women's used. Yep, if you can throw
• 50:37
  out a price. Here's the thing. I don't know what they cause,
• 50:40
  some new and they vary. It's gonna be like any other costume that you
• 50:45
  buy. Yeah, but like the sailor Moon ones because they're so iconic,
• 50:51
  and like you mentioned before, because you can color switch them pretty fast too.
• 50:54
  It is one of the most costplayed probably items ever. And so the
• 50:59
  range of twenty bucks cheap like almost spirit Halloween quality to professional grade hand sewn,
• 51:07
  et cetera, et cetera, such a huge range. I don't know
• 51:09
  throw number out there, gen. I would say that the nicer ones typically
• 51:13
  would probably be found more on Etsy. If they're like handmade and they're making
• 51:16
  them four other cost players. Yeah, this gives me the vibes up.
• 51:20
  I bought this at some costume place. Yeah, and I'm not because it's
• 51:24
  marketplace and not like this is my business and I make costumes, right,
• 51:29
  I would say probably fresh you're looking at forty dollars, maybe like they forty
• 51:36
  fifty dollars. Maybe they're bringing it down to like thirty five forty. Yeah,
• 51:39
  yeah, I wouldn't trust buying a costume for thirty seven fifty. Yeah,
• 51:49
  you're saying thirty seven fifty, yeah, seven fifty. I'm not going
• 51:52
  to give you a bonus point. It's twenty eight bucks blow blower again used
• 51:59
  correct? Okay? These clothing items a very different marketplace depending on the buyer.
• 52:02
  Depends on the person too. Yeah, probably not used in that way.
• 52:08
  Otherwise it could be two hundred and eighty bucks. Yeah, okay.
• 52:14
  So now simply higher or lowis a higher or lower than twenty eight dollars?
• 52:17
  Okay, sailor Moon volume one? The legend begins, VHS oh ute,
• 52:25
  Yeah, nostalgic though nostalgic. Yeah, we've done vhs is on this before.
• 52:30
  They can be pretty low. However, I have a gut feeling that
• 52:35
  because it says volume one, because it's a VHS, because it's this property,
• 52:39
  maybe it's a little bit more more than twenty eight. I'm really leaning
• 52:43
  on your expertise because I feel like this is an area that you know a
• 52:45
  little bit more about than I do. Yeah, one of the twenty eight
• 52:49
  bucks is tough because the last time we saw a VHS it was a Shrek
• 52:52
  VHS and it was six bucks. It was nothing, you know what I
• 52:57
  mean. I thought it was going to be I don't know anyways, Uh
• 53:04
  higher than twenty eight bucks. That's a lot. That's that's a lot for
• 53:07
  a vhass. You want to go lower, but maybe it's not much lower.
• 53:10
  Maybe, I mean he literally went from forty eight to forty seven,
• 53:14
  sixteen to forty four in the last round. I am dick, Yes,
• 53:20
  but just not that much lower. Yeah, maybe it's like twenty six I
• 53:24
  think lower for a single jazz. Yeah, I'm lower saying lower. It
• 53:30
  is lower, and it brings me some joy that it's much lower. It's
• 53:32
  twelve dollars. Oh that's good. Okay, that's hopeful. Okay, coo
• 53:37
  cool, Okay, so this next one higher lower than twelve dollars. Sailor
• 53:42
  Moon. Play a sound Book Brackett's nineteen ninety six I hear sound book?
• 53:46
  Oh yeah, play a sound? Do you remember those sounds? Yeah?
• 53:51
  Player sound sounds like player player sound? Is that? But play a sound?
• 53:58
  They have like yeah, the buttons on the side, did a lot
• 54:00
  of tie in ones? Yeah? Yeah. The idea that anyone would buy
• 54:06
  this for any kind of money. These are The Maiden has a lot of
• 54:08
  these, and I'm like about to donate a ton of them. Yeah,
• 54:14
  nineteen ninety six, a single book that's made out of cardboard with some buttons
• 54:19
  that may or may not work. Yeah, they'll now make these horrible distorted
• 54:22
  sis nightmare feel um the idea that MAP would put this in as well.
• 54:37
  You know, I think I think this person's bold, and I think they're
• 54:40
  like trying to sell it for thirty bucks or some shit. It's either thirty
• 54:45
  or ten. Like it's either like here's a few dollars and I'm doing a
• 54:53
  full book sale and I don't really care how much this goes for, or
• 54:57
  like this is a relic of the past. You need it's thirty dollars.
• 55:00
  Yeah, okay, so we've narrowed it down to its higher or lower.
• 55:04
  Yeah, that's the game. I gut feeling want to say higher. Don't
• 55:09
  agree, but I have a gut feeling that it's higher. Okay, I
• 55:14
  have god feeling it's lower. Have a good feeling only because of books on
• 55:19
  Facebook marketplace, but like, okay, I don't know. I get children's
• 55:22
  book, let's go lowar, let's go lower. I've never bought a book
• 55:25
  from a Facebook marketplace situation. It's so range. It's the heart that's r
• 55:30
  Facebook marketplace is harder someone else's opinion. Let's go lower, it is higher
• 55:38
  twenty dollars and list them. It could be ras. Someone might want to
• 55:45
  hear the sounds of just like crest on a button. Yeah, down with
• 55:50
  your gut m that's okay, Jason, that's okay, okay. So we've
• 55:53
  got twenty dollars. Your next item higher or lower than that? Vintage now
• 56:00
  nineteen ninety seven, say La Moon doll, doll, but vintage in the
• 56:04
  name too. Yeah, it's gonna be higher, right, higher than twenty
• 56:07
  dollars. A doll has to be worth more than a book. I'll remind
• 56:12
  you of the Shrek action figures. What were they? They're very cheap?
• 56:16
  Were they? Oh? What Shrek worth? But this is billions? Yeah,
• 56:22
  yeah, I would be Anyways, this is not a Shrek episode.
• 56:27
  I would say higher on gun yeah, yeah, doll and ventage and naming
• 56:35
  the year like that's the last year that the series, like the the series
• 56:39
  would have finished in nineteen ninety seven. Yeah, this is og So he's
• 56:44
  saying higher, higher, yeah, than twenty bucks. It is higher.
• 56:49
  Nice, it's ninety three dollars in figure right, I feel like it's gonna
• 56:53
  be like way higher again. They're using those buzz words to be like,
• 56:58
  no, I'm telling you why, it's yeah worth you And this didn't have
• 57:01
  the label used, so no it so they feel better about the news stuff.
• 57:08
  I wanted pristine? Is it in the Is it still in the box?
• 57:13
  Yeah? Mint, I want it Mint. Well, this this may
• 57:20
  have been I think it was used. It looked used on the on the
• 57:23
  thing looked it looked old. It looked like it was from the nineties seven.
• 57:29
  Yeah, exactly, nineteen ninety seven. Yeah, ninety three fifty was
• 57:34
  your number? Is this next item higher or lower than that? Universal Studios
• 57:39
  Japan Sailor Moon handbag? Oh handbag? Handbag dropping Universal Studios. There's no
• 57:50
  year on this. It is an imported item import tax. Can you,
• 57:55
  Matt, would you say the title one more time? Absolutely? Universal Judo's
• 58:00
  Japan Sailor Moon handbag. That is Universal Studios in Japan. That is the
• 58:05
  theme park in Japan. Yeah, so now you have now you have theme
• 58:10
  park mark up potentially unless they're just dropping the studio. But dude, I
• 58:16
  could see ninety three bucks at Universal Studios, you know what I mean?
• 58:20
  And so the markup for bringing it to America come on and handbag, yeah,
• 58:28
  and saying handback not purse. It's more that rings the value. I
• 58:32
  just again, people are using those parts. I don't know what they are.
• 58:37
  It's the backpack that's too small to be a backpack, so it's essentially
• 58:40
  a purse on your back. But people love those. Yeah, I have
• 58:45
  a sailor Moon backpack. Yeah, it's it's people pensive. It's more.
• 58:50
  It's more than I think it would be more than you're saying high the ninety
• 58:58
  three fifty Yeah, yeah it's not. It's five dollars bucks, grab a
• 59:05
  bargain. Maybe I'm with the two of you. I was expecting this to
• 59:08
  be like a two. I was living like one twenty because I would I
• 59:13
  would see it as like original purchase, like one fifty, and then like
• 59:16
  meeting in the middle somewhere. Okay, but eighty five. It didn't look
• 59:22
  tiny. It didn't look like a purse. It looked like a average size
• 59:25
  handbag. Could have been scaling generous. Then also, I'm not good at
• 59:30
  this game. Yeah, it's almost like it doesn't test any Sailor Moon knowledge
• 59:36
  at all. Okay, final item on your list? Is it higher or
• 59:44
  lower than eighty five dollars? Vintage? There's that word again, vintage Sailor
• 59:49
  Moon Comic Books issues one, two, three, four, twenty six,
• 59:55
  twenty seven, twenty eight, and twenty nine. Someone skipped out all the
• 1:00:01
  teams. Yeah, so this is a lot set. So I've sold lot
• 1:00:06
  sets like this before. I could see this being like sixty bucks because how
• 1:00:09
  many issues was that total? Eight issues totally? Eight issues total. I
• 1:00:14
  could see being like sixty bucks. Yes, they do have a markup value
• 1:00:15
  because they're probably older, but if they're selling it in a lot, generally
• 1:00:21
  speaking, you're going to drop down the price because you're trying to get rid
• 1:00:23
  of these. Oh so it's not like just the volume one at like pristine
• 1:00:28
  condition, right original, it's eight of them. Yeah, and on Facebook
• 1:00:34
  market places, which could be just someone off and not the teens. Yeah,
• 1:00:37
  that's not a collector offloading. That's that feels like a mom selling her
• 1:00:43
  son's comics. Yeah. Yeah, and so I eighty five bucks is right
• 1:00:47
  around. I could see that too, So it's hard. But comic expert,
• 1:00:53
  Yeah, come on, lean towards lower, towards lower because of the
• 1:01:00
  lot sale. Okay you're saying lower than eighty five dollars, Yeah, it's
• 1:01:06
  higher. This is also ninety three fifty. God damn different. Different.
• 1:01:12
  Why is sty three fifty like the amount that people go for? Yeah,
• 1:01:16
  I don't know. Weird set of issues to be selling as well for that.
• 1:01:20
  Yeah, one, two, three, four, and then four more
• 1:01:24
  in than twenties and then just skip. Yeah, for almost one hundred bucks.
• 1:01:28
  Oh, I'm not going to be selling that. But I made the
• 1:01:30
  game, but I don't make the prices. Yeah, a weird set of
• 1:01:32
  prices. Okay, that's the end of round one. Let's ask Sailor Mercury
• 1:01:37
  to calculate the skulls. She's the she's the bookish nerdy one, right yeah,
• 1:01:42
  yeah, okay those skulls, uh, Sailor butts are on two points,
• 1:01:50
  but the moon Bunnies are in the lead with three points. Damn.
• 1:01:53
  I was very worried about that round. I was like, oh, we
• 1:01:54
  really didn't do that good. Those merch rounds are so hard, they really
• 1:01:59
  are hit. So Witcher Merch round. You watched the Witcher episode. Listen
• 1:02:07
  to that Witcher episode. Ye, the merger. Round was rough, wild
• 1:02:12
  pricing, all right. Now, after some ads, we'll be back with
• 1:02:15
  Round two. On sailor Moon, they'd throw up a title card to let
• 1:02:17
  the audience know it's time for a commercial break. But this is a podcast,
• 1:02:22
  so here's an audio version. Round two is called pitch It. It's
• 1:02:31
  the game where I ask our players to take on the roles of junior media
• 1:02:36
  executives, you know, all those white sounding names at the end of the
• 1:02:38
  credits, and pitch and pitch ideas based on prompts from me a senior media
• 1:02:45
  executive. Teams will have two minutes exactly to make their pitches, so I
• 1:02:50
  recommend a lead before tagging your team mate in after a minute, and I'll
• 1:02:52
  score your pitch out of five based on the core tenets of love, friendship,
• 1:02:58
  justice, and cute boys and luck. It's our first picture of season
• 1:03:05
  three. We're changing it up. We're no longer Dibney, as Dibney have
• 1:03:07
  sent me emails asking me to stop alluding to the idea that they're evil.
• 1:03:13
  I can't even say Dibney to say that it was Dibney who sent me the
• 1:03:15
  email, but you all know I'm saying Dibney so assume all of these pitches
• 1:03:22
  are set in twenty thirty three, when Glamazon owns everything. Hi, I'm
• 1:03:28
  Matthew, Senior executive here at Glamazon. Oh my god, robotic and inoffensive.
• 1:03:37
  I think we'll start with Sailor Butts Moon Bunnies. You will have a
• 1:03:43
  turn at this same one. So here is your first prompt. Hey,
• 1:03:45
  look, it's not all about Sailor Moon. Okay, this franchise is famously
• 1:03:51
  worth thirteen point nine billion dollars famously, so we all we all know this.
• 1:03:58
  Yes, it's a fact. So in order to put the hard squeeze
• 1:04:00
  on our consumers even more, we need to give one of the other characters
• 1:04:04
  a leading role in a spinoff. So pick a character from Sailor Moon,
• 1:04:09
  any character, and pitch me an anime and am pitch me an enemy.
• 1:04:20
  Okay, so Sailor Butts, who would like to lead this pitch? I
• 1:04:26
  mean I'm happy to yeah, And everything I will say will give you lots
• 1:04:30
  of segue. Is I'm going to liken it to another anime that you do
• 1:04:34
  know. This is the champion energy that I'm here for. Perfect I'm so
• 1:04:43
  whenever you're ready, You're two minutes, starts whenever you're ready. So Sailor
• 1:04:46
  Moon super popular. Another anime that's super popular SPI X Family. Wink wink
• 1:04:51
  over to Jason, Um, I think that who doesn't have enough time?
• 1:04:58
  Sailor you're in this and Sailor Neptune, these two famously in the plot have
• 1:05:03
  to take care of Saturn when she comes back as a child. So Spy
• 1:05:09
  X family style, you've got the two unlikely superhero spy you know, sailors
• 1:05:15
  taking care of a young child who are getting into child antics all the time.
• 1:05:19
  You get more of this mature crime fighting while also getting the antics of
• 1:05:25
  a child, but staying in full complete Sailor lower with bad guys and fighting
• 1:05:30
  and all of these things, laugh track, etc. Mason. Yeah,
• 1:05:34
  And I think that something that's really underrated about this is, you know,
• 1:05:39
  Sailor Moon is the titulary character. The more important aspect is the relationships between
• 1:05:44
  inner and outer guardians and how she relates to them. Right this, having
• 1:05:47
  a family dynamic of a core three trio who are like dynamically different on top
• 1:05:54
  of chaotic energy from a child, really opens up to how do you interact
• 1:06:00
  with each other? How does how does the mother character of this or however
• 1:06:04
  you want to phrase that, interact with the child. And then on top
• 1:06:06
  of that the more father or paternal character, however you want to phrase that,
• 1:06:12
  and and vice versa. It's about the character dynamics. So we're bringing
• 1:06:15
  both Slice of Life anime intersecting with the ideas of crime fighting, which really
• 1:06:21
  emphasized everything that Sailor Moon is great at relationships, love friendships. Hen second,
• 1:06:27
  crime fighting your representation there, that's another point. All right, that's
• 1:06:34
  your time. That was a fantastic page. Holy shait, guys. I
• 1:06:38
  was thinking on that a lot today and I thought it was cute. That
• 1:06:41
  was great. That's a great I love the idea of more of the outer
• 1:06:44
  Guardians. I love the idea of queer representation. I love the different anime
• 1:06:47
  tropes. Like, we're going to take it to a different place. I'm
• 1:06:50
  gonna have to give you five points. I'm gonna give you five out of
• 1:06:54
  five. We're gonna start out strong. I really like, just like what
• 1:07:00
  troupe we got that? Yep, I mean, they've burned that one.
• 1:07:03
  There's no argue with that. As even as an opponent, I'm like,
• 1:07:06
  I want to watch the show I was like, God damn it. Yeah,
• 1:07:12
  fantastic stuff. Okay, same exact pitch, but this time it will
• 1:07:15
  be the moon bunnies making that pitch. Do you know who's gonna stop this
• 1:07:19
  one? Who's gonna take the lead? Do you have any I have an
• 1:07:23
  idea. I think I think you'll like. I think you'll like. Okay,
• 1:07:27
  coo coo, coo cool, I'm down for it. Okay, your
• 1:07:28
  time stops whenever you're ready. Dree. So. The Sailor Moon franchise is
• 1:07:32
  very child aimed. For the most part, it's young audience, but as
• 1:07:36
  we've learned, a lot of the younger audience has grown up become nostalgic and
• 1:07:40
  they want something new they can attach themselves too with the memories. And what
• 1:07:45
  is something that we have learned throughout the pandemic in these last few years that
• 1:07:48
  queer women just love and has actually expanded to most queer people is true crime
• 1:07:53
  and crime related stuff and murders and serial killers. So I say, we
• 1:07:57
  have Sailor Pluto as a scientist, as the forensic scientist on murder cases that
• 1:08:02
  somehow get tied into the actual villain plots of the larger story. So we
• 1:08:06
  have her by day working in the labs, solving crime, being a badass
• 1:08:12
  science woman, and then at night we have her actually and her sailor sad
• 1:08:15
  mode, going up against these villains but having to hide that is something supernatural
• 1:08:20
  or other worldly from the more regular people that around her, and hiding her
• 1:08:25
  identity from her queer love interest obviously in this office, because why wouldn't have
• 1:08:28
  a queer romance and an amazing franchise. Yeah. Absolutely, we're extending that
• 1:08:33
  representation that we had four young girls in science and we're using like a proven,
• 1:08:40
  a proven formula anyone there are. There are a few different series,
• 1:08:45
  but notably and Cis has a goth dark type like forensics lab person. She's
• 1:08:51
  more popular than anything. Using that formula, we could make this show an
• 1:08:58
  absolute hit. She is the lead character. She's not some when people go
• 1:09:01
  to with, oh, I have one little problem, We're going to talk
• 1:09:04
  to you in the basement. She is the central character both scientifically managing this
• 1:09:11
  sherlocking it and still managing those like magical girl tropes ten seconds to hit that
• 1:09:18
  both the nostalgia factor and the aging of the audience that now has spending power
• 1:09:24
  as adults. Oh you said the final magical word, and it's probably about
• 1:09:29
  five different words, spending power for full Yeah, see the whole time I
• 1:09:33
  had I camera her name, but on Criminal Minds, the Forensic Scientists,
• 1:09:38
  though there can be abby thank you. I haven't watched it in years.
• 1:09:42
  It's been a while. I just haven't burned in my brain. The childhood
• 1:09:45
  knowledge. I loved this and the reaction that Jen gave after Drew made the
• 1:09:50
  initial pitch is the thing that ensures the five points because I'm like, oh,
• 1:09:57
  yeah, say Lemon fans want to welcome friends. Oh my god,
• 1:10:01
  are we doing so? Yeah? I would watch both of those shows.
• 1:10:09
  Yeah, i'd watch you know, they would do a crossover episode two for
• 1:10:14
  like a season finale. Oh yeah, there's crossover potential. Baby, screw
• 1:10:18
  the whatever the CW's Flash Arrow Versus. I want Sailor verse Us only with
• 1:10:25
  the Outer Guardians. But this show is just called Outer Guardians and that's that's
• 1:10:30
  it. That's it. Yeah, that's the universe. And then there's all
• 1:10:32
  these spinoffs within it. It's it's fantastic stuff. And I feel like we're
• 1:10:35
  going to make some money in this fictional little board meeting that we've set up
• 1:10:39
  in. Okay, let's have another prompt, and yeah, I think I
• 1:10:45
  think the Moon Bunnies will start this time, just to just to mix things
• 1:10:46
  up. So here is that prompt that makes sense. Sailor Moon hasn't exactly
• 1:10:51
  dominated the video game space, and my friends at HBO tell me that video
• 1:10:56
  games are the future of storytelling. Season finale is airing tonight as we speak,
• 1:11:01
  So pitch me a Sailor Moon video game, any genre, anything you
• 1:11:06
  want, no holds bod just make it fun and crucially marketable. So whenever
• 1:11:12
  you are ready, someone from Floors open to you, Audre if you want
• 1:11:15
  to start, or I can dive in incredible. I would love to see
• 1:11:18
  in the Sailor Moon universe and RPG style where you are your own guardian,
• 1:11:27
  building off of the types of powers that you would see from the other guardians.
• 1:11:30
  The inner Guardians are a little bit more like I Am Mercury, but
• 1:11:34
  the outer Guardians are more more general concepts. So I'm thinking Wicher style gameplay
• 1:11:42
  where you are doing some a little bit of melee combat, but you do
• 1:11:45
  have some powers as well. In order to utilize both of those features simultaneously,
• 1:11:51
  of course, there's going to be some parts that are dating sim but
• 1:11:56
  also you have to balance those elements that are dating with those elements that are
• 1:12:02
  more combat storyline heavy. This is marketing heavily to the group of the population
• 1:12:09
  that got into video games as women, but also that group who also like
• 1:12:15
  sailor Moon but is not identifying as female. Yeah, the RQG space is
• 1:12:19
  huge. There are so many games that I've done this so well. It's
• 1:12:23
  it's kind of become like a trope now of the here as in existing universe.
• 1:12:27
  Introduce a character who's kind of late to the things, so they have
• 1:12:29
  to kind of relearn everything, so it feels like they know what they're doing,
• 1:12:32
  but they're not like seasoned. You have a ton of opportunities, if
• 1:12:35
  we want to say, use other astrological bodies or other planets of other moons,
• 1:12:41
  of other planets to help kind of start your character off and get a
• 1:12:45
  theme going having kind of that persona style of gameplay where you have the by
• 1:12:49
  day you have class and dating and friendships, and then after hours is the
• 1:12:55
  magical girl time. But of course the relationships you make in the school and
• 1:12:58
  then your education can affect what kind of hours and uh teammates you get um
• 1:13:03
  and just kind of building off of these these huge, beautiful open world with
• 1:13:08
  tons of different places to adventure in, but always kind of coming back that
• 1:13:11
  core, your character, your way, your style. I like it,
• 1:13:15
  do it your way, have it your way. That always wins in capitalism,
• 1:13:19
  Let the consumers existing slogan. I think that's a slogan. Can we
• 1:13:28
  can we not use actual brand names within this segment? Can we call them
• 1:13:30
  like Boiga coin, Um, okay, your queen book a queen? Yeah?
• 1:13:38
  Where is the book a queen? Okay? Different crime show? Yeah,
• 1:13:45
  let's talk about your damn it Jason. Yeah. When as as Adre
• 1:13:48
  was explaining her um pitch, I was exactly thinking of Persona five and this
• 1:13:55
  is damning, this is really you know what. No, I'm gonna say
• 1:13:59
  it. I'm gonna be a good support about it. The real genius about
• 1:14:01
  comparing that to Persona five, and Drew touched on that, is that in
• 1:14:04
  the game Persona five, which I realize that you probably aren't aware of because
• 1:14:09
  it's a JAY I'm familiar but I've not played it's a JRPG, is that
• 1:14:12
  it's one of those final fantasy type of games where you get to develop the
• 1:14:16
  team and you know, level them up individually, so you could have each
• 1:14:19
  guardian as that team member, as Drew said. But also something that he
• 1:14:24
  mentioned is that in Persona five, a core element of storytelling and gameplay is
• 1:14:29
  that they have superhero like identities known as personas, similar to how the Sailors
• 1:14:34
  switch from their high school or in this case, middle school lives and the
• 1:14:41
  like the dating lifesim situation of it. Yeah, and then it flip flops
• 1:14:44
  into the sailor aspect or the persona aspect, where it's more action oriented and
• 1:14:48
  usually held in these dreamscapes. So Persona five was the ultimate the one game
• 1:14:55
  comparison. Yeah, you know, thank you, thank you for being a
• 1:14:57
  good spot up that point from three to foll Okay, because now that I
• 1:15:01
  know more about pisa um, but you're good as well. Wow. It
• 1:15:05
  sounds like two of their points though, have been because our teams enforced their
• 1:15:11
  idea. Well, you said, my reaction got them a five. His
• 1:15:16
  explanation got we're gonna get five. It's okay, Jen, do you have
• 1:15:21
  ideas? I do have ideas. I have ideas, Okay, I can
• 1:15:27
  I have I have a supplementary idea, So I want you to start,
• 1:15:30
  and I'm going to add on to it if that's okay. Oh, I
• 1:15:31
  don't know if mine will. I'm excited you ideas, and I don't know
• 1:15:41
  what is allowed here. Anything's allowed as long as it's maybe I don't know.
• 1:15:48
  Sail Oh my god, a lot of the little town and you stan
• 1:15:55
  your phone and then some monster jumps out and you have to change your clothes,
• 1:16:00
  and that is not it's actually no augmented reality is just reality. You
• 1:16:09
  have to determine is that guy a cute boy or a potential threat to your
• 1:16:13
  life being a woman. You're on a second fast? Oh got it?
• 1:16:26
  Okay, So I would like a pitch, a video game pitch from the
• 1:16:30
  Sailor butts whenever you are ready. Okay, I can run with part of
• 1:16:33
  my idea and if you want to throw it it, okay. So when
• 1:16:38
  you're watching Sailor Moon, I in my D and D brain see it just
• 1:16:43
  like as one of those things where like I want to be that person.
• 1:16:45
  I want to be Sailor whoever going through you know this thing that's the call
• 1:16:51
  to action, whether that be like oh no, your friend's mom is acting
• 1:16:57
  weird in the jewelry store and your friend is now missing. What do you
• 1:17:00
  do? UM? It's very like call to action E. And so I
• 1:17:03
  think that there's this really cool area of having some of the like actual plot
• 1:17:09
  lines of the show, like I think they do really well. It's something
• 1:17:12
  that I could absolutely see as a video game or a D and D campaign.
• 1:17:15
  And so I think mixing those ideas and letting you pick your guardian,
• 1:17:19
  like instead of building your own, you're actually picking Mercury or whatever, and
• 1:17:24
  they all have special powers and you get to walk life as that particular guardian.
• 1:17:29
  Yes, I'm gonna I'm gonna add on to this idea if you don't
• 1:17:31
  mind. So in a similar way your DND brain works, I think a
• 1:17:36
  point and click adventure is going to be the way to go for a sailor
• 1:17:40
  moon franchise. I think, very similar to like dating sims or life sims.
• 1:17:44
  I think having dialogue heavy is going to be really important. Now,
• 1:17:47
  something that you said here Matthew from Glamazon, Glamazon Senior executive is it's got
• 1:17:54
  to be marketable. And I think something that's really hit in terms of marketability,
• 1:17:59
  and especially when we're working with the genre of magic girls is catch a
• 1:18:02
  thons. So we're gonna make this game a catch it than where each sailor
• 1:18:08
  now you get the five inner Sailors as as freemium kind of situations played through
• 1:18:12
  the game, you get to unlock them, you get to choose. But
• 1:18:14
  then we really market it by having the Outer Guardians be a catch it than
• 1:18:18
  and then also having alternative costumes be huge on grab bag loop box situations.
• 1:18:25
  You love Uranus, but you love that specific outfit that Uranis wore that one
• 1:18:29
  time. You love that one outfit that Pluto war that oddres wearing right now,
• 1:18:32
  you gotta catch it th on it and that unlocks new conversation trees.
• 1:18:36
  Also super quickly, there is a mini game of the video game that they
• 1:18:41
  play in the video game store. Yes, okay, I'll allow that under
• 1:18:45
  the wire. I'm also just just to be nice though, I'm gonna say
• 1:18:48
  it that sounds amazing. But also now just thinking about all the like themed
• 1:18:51
  outfits you can do for like a Christmas event, Yeah, like come on,
• 1:18:57
  oh my god, people load money into that. I know. I
• 1:19:00
  don't know much about Genshen impact except it's Wi Fu bait, it's cosplay city,
• 1:19:05
  right. I have seen stories of what money has been spent by individual
• 1:19:11
  users on that game, and it is frightening. Yeah, because you not
• 1:19:14
  only want the This is not expanding on it, but we're just explaining sure
• 1:19:17
  because it's it's it's like, oh, did you get a four star Jupiter
• 1:19:20
  or a five star Jupiter? Oh shit, it's six star plus to wear
• 1:19:25
  alternative costume. People spend money on that gampling. One of your whole points
• 1:19:29
  is for using the word catch on. Yeah, because that plays very well
• 1:19:32
  to my capitalist mindset. I think that's what they're called to. I don't
• 1:19:36
  actually know if that's clear, hey, but it was a new word to
• 1:19:40
  me, but I enjoy it. Yes, sounds like a thing. Yeah.
• 1:19:43
  Look because Drew praised Joe's as well, and to keep this balanced.
• 1:19:46
  Originally was like I would rather play the Moon Bunnies game. But also,
• 1:19:50
  you guys focused way more on the marketability aspect, and that's the marketing here.
• 1:19:54
  So I'm also going to give four points for this game. I know
• 1:19:57
  I'm just giving the same amount of points out to each but I like both
• 1:20:00
  ideas. Also, something I thought of, I think we both missed Lego
• 1:20:05
  style because you know how in the Lego games you have all of the characters
• 1:20:10
  present and then their powers as you go along, and so you can play
• 1:20:14
  the exact beats of the story. Sailor Moon is so dangerous, it's so
• 1:20:20
  crazy, like they're they literally level up. Like my when I watch Sailor
• 1:20:26
  Moon, I'm like, this is a D and D campaign. They are
• 1:20:29
  fighting bad guys. Certain people are doing better based on their skills. They
• 1:20:31
  all have their move sets in the same way that you would have features,
• 1:20:35
  and then they level up their make like their powers, and they're like planet
• 1:20:42
  power, Prison power to Planet power to whatever power, and they're getting better
• 1:20:45
  and they're getting new features. They are literally leveling up like you doing.
• 1:20:49
  I mean, it's it's it's it's the Power Rangers formula of just make them
• 1:20:53
  a little better, give them a new weapon or a new tool or a
• 1:20:56
  new transformation wand and then suddenly this is new merch we can sell to them.
• 1:21:00
  Oh yeah, which is the goal? Yeah yeah, yeah, it's
• 1:21:04
  the goal. And you've you've been awarded justly for it, justly, justly,
• 1:21:09
  kindly, accurately, You've been awarded and just there we go. All
• 1:21:15
  right, I've got one final prompt which I was going to give to the
• 1:21:17
  team first, who had the most points so far in this round, But
• 1:21:21
  it's not really worked out that way, so we'll go overall. So we'll
• 1:21:26
  say it's up to the Sailor butts to decide if they want to go first
• 1:21:28
  or second, as they're just slightly behind. And here is that slightly behind
• 1:21:34
  it. Here is the prompt. Crossover culture is all the rage as we
• 1:21:44
  work towards the singularity media property, a single pill that makes you feel,
• 1:21:47
  think, hope, believe, and shit yourself. Still starring Dwayne the Rock
• 1:21:51
  Johnson. So I'd like you to design me a new Sailor Guardian based on
• 1:21:58
  a fictional pop culture planet. So any planet from pop culture history. Tell
• 1:22:02
  me what they fight for, what what their personality is, and how we
• 1:22:08
  can shoehulme them into a crossover event. I'm freaking out right now all of
• 1:22:12
  those things. So I don't you worry. I got you. Shut your
• 1:22:15
  face right now and ends with that. Drew go ahead, Oh okay,
• 1:22:24
  Audrew, would you like me? I'm gonna take the wheel on this one,
• 1:22:27
  but I think you're going to very happily jump on this one. Yeah.
• 1:22:30
  So there's a franchise that is huge. It's been around for years,
• 1:22:34
  and the one area it really hasn't gravitated to is a younger audience, and
• 1:22:40
  it hasn't really done animated. It's a little bit of animated here and there,
• 1:22:42
  but don't really like a full proper like Saturday Morning cartoon to kind of
• 1:22:45
  bring it back in. I think Sailor Gallifrey with a Doctor Who Crossover would
• 1:22:50
  be just fantastic. We already have a world full of aliens and other creatures
• 1:22:56
  which could be made into adorable anime characters or really imposing villains, which Sailor
• 1:23:00
  Moon has done. We then have kind of the idea of the other Doctor
• 1:23:04
  who Ask characters, the transformations into different Doctor Who Ask outfits from the past,
• 1:23:10
  our generations of the Doctor. We have the Tardest itself kind of as
• 1:23:13
  part of the transformation sequence, and we essentially build a young girl or even
• 1:23:18
  non binary so we can have the switching of gender is even more fun and
• 1:23:21
  a little more open there discovering her connection to you know, the Sailor Scouts
• 1:23:26
  and to the Doctor Who Timeline and becoming earth new protector while the Doctor is
• 1:23:30
  out of commission and almost acting kind of as a leader of voice from a
• 1:23:33
  distance. Teaching her her ways or their ways. Yeah, I'd love to
• 1:23:38
  see a world in which there are a lot of like there's, as someone
• 1:23:43
  who hasn't seen all of it, a lot of like portal type tot doors
• 1:23:47
  between things. And so I'd love to see one in which, honestly,
• 1:23:54
  the doctor's out of commission and one of the either one of the Sailor Guardians
• 1:23:58
  or someone from this planet who's a new guardian, must step up to be
• 1:24:00
  in the place of the doctor. Saila Gallifrey, Yes, Sailor Gallifrey,
• 1:24:06
  and needs to save him not only our galaxy, but space and time as
• 1:24:12
  a concept. M this is this is peak crossover. This is peak crossover.
• 1:24:18
  Ten seconds. The fan bases between both of these understand the kindness and
• 1:24:25
  also dark steaks. They understand both of those, and they are willing to
• 1:24:29
  drop money on them. Glamazon thinking about the merchability of a combination Sailor Scout
• 1:24:36
  transformation one sonic screwdriver. What are you even doing in this botus, Yes,
• 1:24:41
  we are always thinking about the merchability at Glamazon. We love it.
• 1:24:45
  I want that right now. I'm gonna go three D print one. That
• 1:24:48
  was a good pitch I'm I mean, a whole point of yours is going
• 1:24:51
  to be for Selah Gallifrey, because Gallifrey is just a great name for a
• 1:24:56
  Saila Gaudian. That's just fantastic. But I'm going to withhold the the amount
• 1:25:00
  of points until we hear another pitch for a new Sailor Gaudian from a pop
• 1:25:04
  culture planet. Let's let's see when you have, Jason, what is this
• 1:25:08
  big idea of yours. I'm so excited. Oh God, I have an
• 1:25:12
  idea. Because I also have an idea, an idea, I'm happy to
• 1:25:15
  follow your lead. Oh God, I really hope this doesn't shoot us in
• 1:25:18
  the foot. Time stops whenever you're ready, Jason, I'm so sorry,
• 1:25:24
  jen uh if I if I had to have my way, I think Transformers
• 1:25:28
  and Sailor Moon Crossover is the obvious choice. Sailor Cybertron. Now here's here's
• 1:25:33
  the thing. Here's the thing. In recent IDW comics, Transformers has really
• 1:25:39
  explored the idea of there are, for whatever reason, gender transformers. But
• 1:25:44
  also they're fucking robots, so the idea that gender is something that is not
• 1:25:48
  fluid to them is asinine. So they've played a lot with this idea of
• 1:25:53
  the trans and transformers UM. And then that really emphasizes like the idea that
• 1:25:59
  we can have more queer representation within Sailor Moon. I really love the idea
• 1:26:03
  that Sailor Moon can drive this sailor as it were, because it transforms into
• 1:26:09
  a vehicle like a motorcycle or something like that. The name it what's the
• 1:26:12
  name of the sailor Sailor Cybertron, And I also really love the idea that
• 1:26:15
  it is because it follows the sailor genre. One, it's it's Japan centered,
• 1:26:21
  it has basis in anime. And then three finally, uh, I
• 1:26:26
  just love the idea of like a twenty foot fucking gigantic, clunky robot trying
• 1:26:30
  to be as feminine as possible. I think that's really fucking funny. I
• 1:26:33
  like a law Jupiter, UM. But I don't know is that something that
• 1:26:38
  appeals to you, Jed. Yeah, absolutely. I think there's this like
• 1:26:42
  love and technology, this love and like mechanics part of it that like taps
• 1:26:45
  into that getting into other stem technical white trades UM. And I think that
• 1:26:53
  it's really fun to think about how that connects. But I also think like
• 1:26:57
  this like artifice or level again de deep brain, but this artificial level of
• 1:27:02
  um connecting these two worlds together, and maybe yeah, she has this like
• 1:27:05
  hot pink motorbike or teal or mint green motorbike that is able to be a
• 1:27:13
  connection with the Sailor Scouts, but that within her actual world and working with
• 1:27:17
  other Transformers, it is that thing of like she gets to be this other
• 1:27:23
  worldly thing that is different from the Transformers but still within the same. So
• 1:27:27
  I think that there's this like crossover within that like boy girl thing. And
• 1:27:30
  yes, robots can feel love. Robots can feel love. Robots can feel
• 1:27:35
  love, right, Matthew, why can't they get me to love their franchise?
• 1:27:45
  Can I just say my idea because I was I stand, I stand
• 1:27:49
  behind this and I saw it coming uh mine wise, really focusing on Camp
• 1:28:00
  and being a Sailor Corrizon and it being an artificer for love and technology.
• 1:28:05
  I still got to use a lot of the things that I use. But
• 1:28:09
  this like Camp within the Star Wars franchise of it being a young person that's
• 1:28:15
  realizing their powers and like all of these things and like how many fucking plants
• 1:28:18
  are in Star Wars. It's a whole whole world opening thing, sailor jar
• 1:28:25
  jar and a boot scares the crap out of that right now? Oh god,
• 1:28:33
  um, just terrifying. But also I want it more than a Transformers
• 1:28:38
  one. So I've done with the star wars idea. Maybe you could have
• 1:28:42
  competed with Galliphray. So I'm going to give five points to the moon Bunnies
• 1:28:45
  and full points to Sailor. But okay, is that literally just because the
• 1:28:49
  point knocked up? Because it's Transformers? But did you hear my ideas about
• 1:28:54
  it? Oh? It was solid. I just fell asleep. I mean,
• 1:28:58
  I'm already picturing the like a design for that though, of having like
• 1:29:00
  a different Transformer vehicle for each of the Sailor Scouts that itself is a Transformer,
• 1:29:05
  that is a Sailor transformer. Yes, which marketability are you getting me?
• 1:29:11
  The marchability of a Sailor's Scout motorbike that your sailor doll can sit on?
• 1:29:17
  Yeah? Absolutely? But think about the coal audience. Matt ear Bias
• 1:29:21
  is showing it always is. We're we're friends, guys, We're friends.
• 1:29:30
  This is our dynamic. Yes, friends interact. The core audience is anime
• 1:29:34
  lovers and anime lovers love giant fucking robots. Man. If I'm being honest,
• 1:29:43
  the thing that you lost the point for is not just the Transformers universe
• 1:29:45
  as a whole, but just Saila Cybotron. Just sounds so lame completely,
• 1:29:51
  I know, yeah, but you went with it. So yeah. I'm
• 1:29:55
  also picturing for all three of those ideas, the like villain doing that classic
• 1:29:59
  kind of Marvel thing of the villain is just a good guy, but evil
• 1:30:01
  and Sailor death Star, Sailor Unicron, and Sailor Starrow. Yes, I'm
• 1:30:08
  a Dalek sailor scout where death Star? Do you imagine the outfits? Can
• 1:30:15
  you just capture a Dalek having the transformation sequence right now? Please? I
• 1:30:24
  need to span Ard, please if you're listening and you can draw this incredible
• 1:30:30
  rats bomb. I love even the idea that it doesn't transform like it's just
• 1:30:35
  a big ball silhouette in stars like zooms in on one corner of the circle.
• 1:30:43
  It's the same fucking corner on the circle, and then it's just a
• 1:30:45
  ball with a bow on it, you know what I mean. Incredible?
• 1:30:47
  Yes, Okay, that is the end of the round. Let's give the
• 1:30:53
  Skool calculations to Luna because she's always working that supercomputer with those cute little paws
• 1:30:58
  on the keys, and those scores are Sailor butts are on fifteen points,
• 1:31:03
  but the Moon bunnies are still in the lead with seventeen points. Okay,
• 1:31:08
  Jen, we got this bullied up. Next is round three. But first,
• 1:31:14
  if I were a pretty guardian, and let's face it, I kind
• 1:31:15
  of am, i'd fight for love and games, but in the name of
• 1:31:19
  greed, I must play some ads. Round three is called so Quotable Sailor
• 1:31:31
  Moon features the eponymous character and her Sailor guardians, or specifically the inner Guardians,
• 1:31:38
  and together all five of them are totally unique and represent all the kinds
• 1:31:42
  of girls. You've got athlete girls, but girls, serious girls, independent
• 1:31:45
  girls, and crying girls. And I've just realized that's the same as the
• 1:31:48
  Spice girls. What was it about the nineties and insisting that girls were five
• 1:31:53
  types of girls? Boys only four? The turtles true and they all eat
• 1:32:00
  quip. Oh yeah that's boys. Yeah, boys cry about the way the
• 1:32:04
  boys were depicted. Actually, that's that's a very good point. It's almost
• 1:32:10
  like the patriarchy works against us as well. God damn it. Okay,
• 1:32:14
  take this foot out of my mouth real quick. So because they're all so
• 1:32:18
  distinct, it won't be difficult to recognize who said these highly up voted famous
• 1:32:23
  quotes. According to fans on Rancer, most of your answers will be one
• 1:32:28
  of the four Inner Guardians, so you're largely choosing from those, But just
• 1:32:31
  one of each of your quotes will be Sailor Moon herself hidden there amongst her
• 1:32:38
  friends. And when that quote happens, I want you to answer by saying
• 1:32:42
  Moon power make up, okay, otherwise I won't accept the point. Okay,
• 1:32:47
  So first of all, we will go to the sailor butts here,
• 1:32:54
  still laughing at the name. Here is your first quote. Who said this
• 1:33:00
  for love and exams, stand under a cold waterfall and reflect on your conduct.
• 1:33:05
  Do you have to say her name? Or is this like a quick
• 1:33:08
  fire round? Yeah, you say a name you can, Yeah, Sailor
• 1:33:15
  Mercury. Happy with that, Jason, Yeah, yeah, yeah, of
• 1:33:16
  course this is Sailor Mercury that they mentioned waterfalls. Yeah, over to moon
• 1:33:20
  Bunnies. Here is your first quote. The fire of passion and the power
• 1:33:25
  of prayer will defeat evil in the name of the Red high heel. I'll
• 1:33:29
  beat you. I think that hit. Every check barks from Sailor Mars,
• 1:33:35
  I could think of, yeah, yes, this is Mars. As of
• 1:33:40
  course this is Sailor Mars. I've thrown out an easy one for the both
• 1:33:43
  teams, not to diminish your knowledge there. Obviously well done and knowing those
• 1:33:46
  things. I wouldn't have known them if I didn't read them on Rancor.
• 1:33:49
  Okay, back on over to Sailor Butts. I will make you feel so
• 1:33:55
  much regret it will leave you numb. Oh, I mean Jupiter tough,
• 1:34:00
  right, that's her stick. Yeah, but Venus comes to mind Venus.
• 1:34:08
  I'll be honest, I don't remember Venus. Which color she She's like yellow
• 1:34:14
  Shred, She's like Sailor Venus. She's the like super hero of the superheroes.
• 1:34:18
  Oh, she looks like Sailor Moon, Sailor Moon's guardian. Yeah,
• 1:34:24
  she like lives in an arcade for some reason. Yeah, okay, oh
• 1:34:28
  yeah, Venus is is tough. Yeah, she's uses lightning ler, like
• 1:34:31
  her weapon is a lightning ler. Yeah, no, i'd go Venus.
• 1:34:36
  Venus is way tougher. He's saying Venus. Yeah, it's actually Sailor Jupita.
• 1:34:41
  Hell so sorry, but hey, you're right, Jason. It's not
• 1:34:45
  going to be worth a point, but you're right. You'll know her.
• 1:34:50
  Okay, that's all right, all right, back on if it's and Ben
• 1:34:55
  Bunnies, here's your quotes. Thinking isn't going to get us anywhere? I
• 1:35:00
  mean, that's major Sailor Moon vide. Do we just want to do we
• 1:35:04
  want to use our Sailor Moon card early? Can you remember we have to
• 1:35:10
  stay out here with the actual line. I have too many of early catchphrases
• 1:35:13
  going yeah, moon, prism, power, make up. Yes, this
• 1:35:17
  is Sailor Moon. I will give you a point for that. This is
• 1:35:19
  Sailor Moon role model for girls everywhere. Don't think, just don't think,
• 1:35:25
  don't think, eat food. I mean that's what I do. So is
• 1:35:30
  it one Sailor Moon per team or just one in the one Sailor Moon per
• 1:35:33
  team? You still have your Sailor Moon quote? Okay, yeah, to
• 1:35:36
  happen? Okay, maybe it's this Moe right hand out, thank you Drew.
• 1:35:42
  Here is that quote. I am the champion of the love lawn.
• 1:35:45
  Now you leave those cats alone like lawn as an l A W N no
• 1:35:50
  l O r N yeah lovel okay, yeah, sorry, Matt, No,
• 1:35:56
  it's my accent. That famous love lawn love good love lawn, some
• 1:36:05
  love lawn bowling after this, it's actually not environmentally friendly to keep a love
• 1:36:12
  home. I am. Oh see now I'm going to say Venus again because
• 1:36:16
  she has Artemis. Is she the champion of the love Lauren? Does she
• 1:36:19
  have a romantic interest Venus? Oh? Yeah, later on, but it's
• 1:36:24
  very Oh however, this does also screwed Sailor Moon too. It's also screwed
• 1:36:29
  sailor Moon. What did he put the moon caught back back? He did
• 1:36:32
  just say it might be this one. I mean, yeah, Sailor Moon
• 1:36:36
  is both cats. You You were right last time, so it's it's right
• 1:36:44
  if I'm If I'm wrong this time, all right, we're gonna use it.
• 1:36:45
  What is it, Sailor Moon makeup? I take it. I will
• 1:36:50
  take it. But it's not God fucking damn it is Venus. No Sailor
• 1:36:56
  Mas who said this? I thought it was Venus too. I'm with you
• 1:37:00
  Venus if it wasn't man, Yeah, okay, well we were both wrong
• 1:37:04
  though that. I feel like we've commented enough that the outer Gaudians of the
• 1:37:09
  distinct characters and audians all sound the same. I also feel like this is
• 1:37:13
  one of those weird cases of the nineties where cats was just used to refer
• 1:37:15
  to that group of people, not like actual cats. Cats alone. Mars
• 1:37:24
  almost never interacts with the cats. Yeah, so why show it here?
• 1:37:28
  She respects their space. That's a cat lover if I've ever seen one that
• 1:37:33
  is a cat lover. Okay, moon Bunnies, here's your next quote.
• 1:37:38
  This is the whip of Love. Wake up. I still want to say
• 1:37:42
  Venus for this one. Trying to think of who has a whip. I
• 1:37:45
  don't know why. I'm picturing Venus with like a like a trail of stars
• 1:37:48
  type thing. I think it might be just her transformation sequence. We can
• 1:37:51
  go with it. I don't have a I don't have any other directionary polls.
• 1:37:56
  We'll go for sailor Venus, going for say love Venus is say la
• 1:38:00
  Venus. One thing is a lightening war, which is a wii Uh damn
• 1:38:10
  good. I wasn't crazy. We're bringing their equipment properly. No, yeah,
• 1:38:13
  that's her weapon. Well, you kept saying Letney lore. I'm like,
• 1:38:16
  it sounds like a thing that's a d D spell and that's just what
• 1:38:23
  her weapon looks like. Oh, lightning whip. There's a lightning on weapon.
• 1:38:28
  I always play Mealy classes in DNS. I'm not smart enough to figure
• 1:38:30
  out spells. I relate to that so much. Okay, I have one
• 1:38:38
  final I'm just gonna say this to make it clear. One final quote for
• 1:38:42
  each team, So this has to be our I'm glad they figured it out
• 1:38:48
  best. Here is that final quote. Girls have to be strong to protect
• 1:38:56
  the men they love. Non present I make up. Thank you, Jen,
• 1:39:01
  it is Sailor Moon. This is your Sailor Moon quote. I mean,
• 1:39:05
  her friends are inspiring, but her quotes are got off's. She's the
• 1:39:10
  blankest slate of them all. Yes, got a piece of white paper.
• 1:39:15
  And yeah, there's at least three of us that got Sailor Moon as their
• 1:39:18
  character on the character Chris, which will need to be sending me exact to
• 1:39:21
  take this quiz now. I need to know only because I cry a lot.
• 1:39:26
  You got Sailor Moon too, Yeah, I did. I cry and
• 1:39:30
  I play video games. Okay, I don't think you can get any other
• 1:39:33
  option other than Sailor Moon took I actually took two, to be fair,
• 1:39:38
  I took the same one and got Sailor Moon and got Sailor Mercury is the
• 1:39:41
  other one. It's like, oh, yeah, you would be I'll be
• 1:39:44
  very honest. Yeah, I'll lean into that morals. If I don't get
• 1:39:46
  Jupiter, I'm gonna be so pissed the same way. Okay, Moon bunnies,
• 1:39:51
  I have one last quote for you. You've used your Sailor Moon card,
• 1:39:56
  so it's not Sailor Moon. Here is your quote, beat all,
• 1:40:00
  be honest, be beautiful. Oh that's the most vague one. That sucks.
• 1:40:04
  It's not Mercury. I feel like she wouldn't call it the be beautiful
• 1:40:08
  thing. I can kind of see Jupiter saying it. Yeah, we can
• 1:40:14
  go with Jupiter. It does. It's this weird balance of it seems out
• 1:40:17
  of character, like more like a Mars thing to say, but we have
• 1:40:20
  answered Mars. Sorry to meta game. Okay, so yeah, Jupiter feels
• 1:40:27
  like the Sam Jupiter on this one. You go with Jupizza, Well you
• 1:40:30
  rolled it out immediately, but it is Saila Mercury. And I even had
• 1:40:36
  a moment too, like I'm gonna be very bluntier. There's like an episode
• 1:40:39
  where like the whole thing is like a makeup villain is like her whole thing
• 1:40:44
  is like giving makeup that mind controls, and like, finally, it's the
• 1:40:46
  realizing your inner beauty is how like Mercury gets out of it because she's the
• 1:40:50
  one who doesn't fall for the makeup trap, Like I can picture the episode
• 1:40:55
  from my childhood. I'm really hitting myself on this one. It's okay here
• 1:41:00
  to have a good time. We are all about friendship, yes, love,
• 1:41:04
  love and friendship and a bunch of other things as well, but only
• 1:41:09
  one from each of us. That is the end of round three. Let's
• 1:41:15
  use the power of friendship to calculate the latest scores, douse yourself in water,
• 1:41:20
  and repent Mercury's Oh my goodness, Todd, I smember early on like
• 1:41:31
  you she first her power of all she can do is shoot like bubbles.
• 1:41:38
  She's basically a squirtle. Yeah yeah, are you waiting on something? Yeah?
• 1:41:43
  Sorry, I'm just waiting on the power of friendship to calculate the late
• 1:41:45
  scores. I'm not gonna do it. We're down, Yes you are,
• 1:41:53
  sail Yeah exactly that Sailor butts are on seventeen points and the moon Bunnies are
• 1:41:58
  in the lead with twenty points. Okay, quick fire round. Before we
• 1:42:01
  get to the final round, the crucial quick fire round, let's talk prizes
• 1:42:06
  this episode. Star prize is the concept of love. All types of love
• 1:42:12
  are precious, but especially the love that comes from friendship. Although unless it's
• 1:42:15
  the love of acute college boy that overrides everything apparently, so yes, friendship
• 1:42:23
  and then cute. But our winning team will also receive the full Issatan Ex
• 1:42:39
  Sailor Moon Bedroom furniture Suite, which unfortunately also means you'll never have sex again,
• 1:42:47
  but it does. It's insane. It was like in twenty nineteen and
• 1:42:49
  it was just it had everything from like a floor area rug to a chandelier,
• 1:42:55
  and it had about twenty different items and it costs about one hundred and
• 1:42:59
  twenty thousand dollars to get all of the chandelier. Does the heavy lifting for
• 1:43:02
  the price, Yeah, I would imagine. Wow. Okay, up next
• 1:43:06
  is our quick fire around, but first we've got one final set of ads.
• 1:43:11
  Remember on Saturday mornings as a kid, when it was all just toy
• 1:43:14
  commercials. Well, now you're an adult and it's all insurance and mattresses and
• 1:43:17
  better help spend sleep, die see you soon. Our final quick fire around
• 1:43:30
  is called Sailor Way Sailor Way, Sailor Way. Than as always in the
• 1:43:38
  quick fire around, I will be testing our players broader pop culture knowledge,
• 1:43:41
  and this time I'll be testing our players knowledge of sailors from across entertainment media.
• 1:43:46
  Because this whole time I was learning and watching Sailor Moon, I was
• 1:43:49
  like, where are all the sailors? And also we've done planets already,
• 1:43:55
  so I couldn't do that, I'll be honest, I thought about it.
• 1:44:00
  Yeah, it's a really good planet one already. Damn. Yeah. I
• 1:44:01
  was like, oh, yes, this will be easy quick fire and we'll
• 1:44:03
  do planets. And I was like, shit, we did that not but
• 1:44:06
  four weeks ago. Okay, So there is of course a classic gate leaper's
• 1:44:13
  twist. During the delivery of your answer. I'd like you to say something
• 1:44:16
  seafaring and cartoonish, something like yeah, me, hearties, climb the riggan
• 1:44:24
  you're giving Okay, Yeah, So just say throw out anything you want,
• 1:44:29
  as long as it sounds like you're saying it in a seafaring way. I
• 1:44:31
  will give you the points um buzzing at any point by saying your team name.
• 1:44:36
  So let's practice that now bunnies, bunnies versus butts, bunny buds,
• 1:44:44
  bunny bus bunnybuts are cute. You ever seen the bunnies Like tails are actually
• 1:44:50
  like really long, they're just tucked under what Oh it's weird videos, absolutely
• 1:45:00
  myth busting the typical cartoonni there. Okay, So, for example, if
• 1:45:04
  I said, because, of course, I'll be giving you clues to a
• 1:45:06
  to a various face. If I said, yeah, I'd be the star
• 1:45:12
  of a series of films based off a theme park ride. But yes,
• 1:45:16
  butts the poop deck, Captain Jack Sparrow. Yeah, I take that poop
• 1:45:20
  deck, Captain Jack Sparrow. Yeah, it doesn't have to be a different
• 1:45:25
  thing. It could be anything at all, as long as you say something
• 1:45:28
  seafaring alongside it. All Right, Okay, here we go. Yeah,
• 1:45:32
  I've been around since nineteen twenty nine and it loves me spinach. But I
• 1:45:39
  think it's gonna be butts, and I think it's gonna be gen Yeah,
• 1:45:42
  Yoho Popeye, It is Popeye with a lovely yoho. That. Yeah,
• 1:45:46
  that's the only one I know. So done. Yeah, you'll find me
• 1:45:54
  second star to the right, and I'll get that blasted pan if it's the
• 1:45:57
  Lunny Ahoy ahoy, it's Captain Hook Yes, yeah, you'll find me in
• 1:46:08
  history, but also played by Rhese Darby and what's affectionately known as the Gay
• 1:46:13
  Pirate Show. Oh, I don't know who you play Bunny. Yes,

• 1:46:24

• 1:46:44
  Sinbad. It is Sinbad. I know sailors. Dad's fucking killing it.

  Yeah, okay, next one. Yeah, I've been staring at the edge
• 1:46:56
  of the water long as I can remember. Yes, true, Oh boy,
• 1:47:00
  it is Moana Goody, such a good soundtrack. Yeah, I'm wanted
• 1:47:11
  for public indecency because I don't wear any pants. Also, I fouled myself
• 1:47:16
  in the water buddies. Yes, true, there she blows. Don't duck,
• 1:47:25
  Yes, ducking even before the foul line. But I just had a
• 1:47:39
  yeah, I'd be the original cabin boy right out of the pages of a
• 1:47:43
  Robert Louis Stevenson novel. Who the fuck is that? I know the name
• 1:47:49
  of the author cabin Boy, the original cabin Boy. Nothing, No,
• 1:47:56
  Bunny Auldra, it's me. It's not, but I love the idea that
• 1:48:00
  he's the original cabin Boy. Yeah. Yeah, no, we'll move on
• 1:48:05
  to the next one. The answer is Jim Hawkins. Jim Holkins. Yes,
• 1:48:13
  here's your next question. Yeah, I'd be the original space cabin Boy

• 1:48:34
  like, I can't think any of the names of any of the charters from
• 1:48:36
  any of that movie, but I love that movie. I was just confused
• 1:48:40
  by the questions it sets Jim Hawkins as well. Kins the original space cabin
• 1:48:45
  Boy. Brilliant work. Yeah, I'd be from one of them grittier HBO
• 1:48:53
  shows. I backed the wrong king and he even took me fingertips he did.
• 1:48:57
  Oh bunnies, Um, yes, oh boy? It be Oh fuck?

• 1:49:09
  Can I help? Oh? Don't I mean gray Worm? Yes, it's
• 1:49:12
  um Aldrew. You can help. Please my team. We've have had teamwork
• 1:49:15
  on previous quick fire rounds, so I feel like I should allow it.
• 1:49:18
  Davos it is, yeah, Davos. Yeah, I'll take Davos. That's
• 1:49:23
  it's been great playing with you. That's amazing, and I absolutely allowed just
• 1:49:28
  I bow out fully. Don't know. Pop culture always screw me over.

  This is like my best round, but for some reason, sailors is my
• 1:49:38
  weakness. Yeah. I've been twenty thousand leagues under the seas, but since
• 1:49:45
  Pisar named a fish after me, that's all anyone know. Yes, Jason
