  Speaker 1: covering one piece episodes eight twenty one and eight twenty two,
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: The Chateau in Turmoil, Loofy to the Rendezvous and deciding
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: to say goodbye Soanjy and his straw hat Bento. In
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: these episodes, Loofy, as soon as he finds out that
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: Sonjy knows about pudding, is like, all right, my work
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: here is done. I shall return to the place that
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: I told him I would be. And honestly, I kind
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: of love this about Loofy. Man. He's just he's a
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: man with a plan and he just doesn't waver from
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: it except when he absolutely does nothing but waiver from it.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: Welcome to spoil Me, Welcome to the show everyone. I
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: am Natasha. Thank you very much to Florian for commissioning
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: this episode. And Florian is here in the chat with me. Yay,
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: good to see if Florian. So yeah, these two episodes
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: were kind of just sort of wrapping up the the
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: I don't want to say like the arcs that we
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: got started, because they're absolutely not wrapped up, but it
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: feels like we are starting to reach a point where
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: everybody is separately coming to a plot point where now
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: we are probably going to begin reuni some of them
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: with each other a little bit more steadily, and we
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: do get some of that here with rescuing Pedro and Nami.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: There's just like, I'm always a fan when we start
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: to get to this part where everybody is catching up
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: with one another, working together, finding out what the other
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: like has been through or whatever new information they may have,
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: and it just it makes me happy to see any
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: time that folks get to work together more, you know
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying. So ooh, Bernadette is here as well.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: Sorry Berndand I didn't even see her name there, but yeah,
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: I was running late, and apparently so was everybody else,
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: so I don't feel too bad about it, So that's good.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: So all right, let's start with the first of these
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: two episodes, eight twenty one, The Chateau in Turmoil, Loofy
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: to the Rendezvous. I just want to say for the
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: record that Tomago is a a rooster man. Now at
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: this point, I am very, very very compelled by Baron Tomago.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: I don't know why. It's not like we haven't had
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: like weirdo characters before. I think that what has kind
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: of gotten me about him is just how unexpected this is.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: We have had all kinds of characters with very weird
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: and bizarre looks that wound up having powers that were
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: kind of mid You know, if there's one thing I've
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: learned in one piece, it is that your costume is
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: not an indicator of how important you were going to
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: be or how cool your power is. It's just unrelated.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: It's difficult for me to keep it in mind all
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: the time, but it like it has proven over and
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: over again to be the case. And the Baron has
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: just been around enough as his weird, little egg shaped
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: self with a little teacup on top, and I really
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: thought he was doing what Like I thought he was
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: already performing the function in the story that we needed
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: and that was going to be kind of it. He
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: has seemed much more this whole time, like a ambassador
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: diplomatic type, you know. He isn't ever really seeming like
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: the guy who's a great fighter or somebody who has
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: much hidden up his sleeve. And I think part of
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: it is the fact that, like our side characters that
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: have been around, there's no like talking about him in
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: hushed voices or hinting or anything like that, because this
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: is a fairly frequent thing in this show that you'll
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: hear in undertones from other kind of side characters or
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: henchmen or whatever. They will say something that it doesn't
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: exactly give away what somebody's ability is, but it lets
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: you know they are not somebody to fuck with and
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: they've got something up their sleeve. There's been no real
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: feeling like that for me about this guy. So the
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: fact that this like egg thing where he could just
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: turn into another creature after getting cut in half, and
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: that every time he turns into a new thing, he's
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: like more badass and tougher somehow, this being kind of
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: a complete surprise. I don't know if Pedro was aware
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: of this. I get the impression he isn't. I don't
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: know if that's true or not. So correct me, guys,
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: if you know that, like Pedro already had this information
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: somehow because they faced off before. He may be aware,
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: but I felt like he was just as surprised as
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: we were. But anyway, oh my god, sorry. Uh. Florian
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: has the list of Astrawhat's favorite foods in the comments,
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: which I absolutely will be reading later once we get
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: to it. Bernadette says One Piece is the poster child
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: for not judging a book by its cover. Yet definitely
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: it's you know, and I shared with you guys my
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: disappointment at Big Mom's costume because it just feels so
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: basic compared to what I was sort of hoping to see.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: And I stand by that in general, especially considering the
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: theming of these islands being all food based. The fact
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: that there's really no food mode teeth in her clothing
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: at all is just kind of puzzling to me. But
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: I will say that I enjoy on a certain level
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: that she has such a basic look to her and
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: is so powerful, because there is something surprising and unassuming
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: about that. So anyway, the way that Pedro has handled
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: this thing, you know, last episode, when he pulls out
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: all this dynamite, I was mystified because I'm like, there's
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: no way he doesn't get killed by this. How would
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: that even work? And it turns out that there was
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: a mirror behind him and Chopper and Carrot were like
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: yelling at him through it, so he knew they were
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: there and was able to do this thing with the
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: dynamite and then leap away into the mirror to escape
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: the blast. Which is a really fun development. I will
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: be honest too, that, like, my brain kept getting kind
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: of twisted up because the design of the room. Excuse me,
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: I have the hiccups. The design of the room itself.
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: There is a shade of like blue paint with clouds
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: on it that kept tricking me into thinking we were outside,
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: and it was like I knew that we weren't. I
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: kept seeing bits of furniture and whatever. I knew that
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: we weren't, but I kept sort of losing track of that,
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: and it was a weird sensation of realizing that there
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: are mirrors hanging on the wall when the whole thing
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: looks like we are actually outdoors already, which I don't know.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: Maybe that was the intent of designing the room this way,
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: but I don't think necessarily that that's true. So anyhow,
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: Pedro is he does not know that this is like
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: a thing that they can do that the mirror world,
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: you know. Eventually he's just like, oh, a mirror world. Well,
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: today has been real fucking weird, so I guess this
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: makes sense. Sure, let's just throw another fucking weird thing
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: on the list. And Chopper says, what's cool is no
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: one can enter or leave without Brulai, and that means
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: that we're safe and we can have an easy escape later.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: And I just like, as soon as Chopper says this,
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: of course I begin to get suspicious because that is
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: awfully convenient, and we're gonna have to see whether or
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: not this works out. I have to assume Brulet escapes somehow,
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: and that means that they would remain trapped in there,
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: or maybe she escapes, like after they they go back
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: into the world and they can't get back into the
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: mirror world, like I don't know. Chopper meanwhile, I don't
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: remember this, like weird the design of him. It looks
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: like he's got his head stuck through a tire that
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: is covered in fur. It's a very weird thing that
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: I don't recall noticing before. And it may have been there,
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: but it just like I said, I don't remember it,
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: and it's a really odd It's like a rough, almost
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: like a giant, very exaggerated Elizabethan rough. And it kept
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: confusing me when we were sort of close up on
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: him a little bit, because it looked like those were
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: his shoulders, but then when the camera pulls back out further,
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: his shoulders are like a whole separate thing, and the
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: rough itself is just sort of replacing his neck and
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: this is this is a weird look that I do
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: not care for at all. So oh, I want to
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: talk about Loofy, And so Loufy is just running around
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: the castle literally yelling for soany, making no bones about
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: the fact that maybe he should not advertise his own location.
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: That is of no interest to him right now whatsoever.
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: He pure is trying to warn Sony and that is
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: all that he cares about right now. And it's extremely
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: funny to me that he's got, like, there's so many
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: people that he winds up facing off with. He fights
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: a lot of folks, and later on we get a
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: scene where all of the top level henchmen that are
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: sort of directly underneath Big Mom. They are all talking
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: about where the straw hats are and how we're going
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: to deal with them and what priority different people take, YadA, YadA, YadA,
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: and they eventually get to Nami and Loofy and it's
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: it said, Okay, I know for sure that the two
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: of them are in that book, pinned down with nowhere
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: to go. And then there's there's like a kind of
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: conversation between the cream guy is actually called Opera, which
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: I don't realize. I think I realized until now. There's
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: he does not actually have a name that goes with
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: a food. Really, but I maybe I'd brought this up before,
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: but Opera has a story. He explains that no, Me
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: and Loofy aren't in the book anymore because he was
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: torturing them to find out where I can't remember what
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: information it even was, that he wanted to be honest
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: but that things went a little too far, and that
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: he accidentally burned them to death. He's claiming that he
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: burned them up so thoroughly that nothing remains at all
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: of their bodies and essentially, you know, I know I overstepped,
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: but what's done is done. What can you do? And
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: the guy who does the book power I can't remember
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: his name, but he is like, yeah, of course, that's
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: definitely a real thing that happened. But later on, when
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: everybody is leaving, he pulls one of the chess pieces
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: aside and is like, you guys go ahead, and like
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: stay on alert overnight, please, And I couldn't help but
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: laugh because this dude cream, Oh prah, forgive me, but
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: I just think of him as cream. I what, how
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: do you think you're getting away with this? What do
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: you think you're what? You don't think that they're gonna like?
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: The thing here that I find so funny is that
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: he seems to think that Lufy and Nami got rescued
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: and they're simply going to leave. You have to know
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: that they are going to try and rescue Sanji again,
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: because that's the whole reason they're here, and that your
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: ineptitude is going to come to light. The only thing
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: that I could think that might have made this plan
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: work is if Opera were planning to leave the island
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: before they found out he had been full of shit
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: and that he was just buying himself a little time
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: so that he could escape. And you know, eventually, when
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: it's discovered that he was just incompetent and a liar,
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: he would be long gone and nobody would be able
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: to do anything about it. But now I'm like you,
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: just we already have at least three dozen people who
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: have personally seen Luphy running around, So your whole story
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: is just falling apart before it's even spoken. You know,
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: it's just really really embarrassing. Seraphim says Opera is part
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: of a set of quintuplets who Big Mom named after
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: musical terms. She must have been having a phase at
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: the time. That is really funny. I like the idea
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: of that, like, you know, having so many kids that
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: you'll be going through certain phases and they just sort
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: of represent that. And Seraphim says Mondeor is the book guy.
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: It's a type of French cheese. Oh okay, I don't
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: know that one. I am my pardon me for those
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: who are listening. I cut a portion of the recording
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: where I just stopped and nearly coughed myself to death,
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: And as much as I was able to stop myself
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: from actually dying, it's still sort of coming back around
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: a little bit and messing me up as I'm speaking here.
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: So sorry if I am clearing my throat and sounding
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: kind of weird, but it happens. So I just wanted
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: to address that whole thing because I just find it
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: extremely funny how pitiful this explanation is. If I were
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: going to be approaching it in like from the perspective
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: of I am going to have to be here to
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: face the music, I think that I would have come
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: up with something that like Jimbay did to overpower me,
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: or I would I would have some explanation as to
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: how they they managed to think. And there was simply
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: nothing I could have done to stop them, you know,
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: but trying to pretend they're dead is just so hilarious.
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: So Loofy himself, he is running down the hall yelling,
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: getting into different fights where he's using different you know,
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: gait like gears and abilities and YadA YadA. But eventually
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: somebody hears him. Sanji's sister, Loofy is running right past
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: the door of the like infirmary that she is in,
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: and she reaches out, grabs him and yanks him in
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: there and then locks the door. And all the guys
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: who are chasing him. It's actually kind of funny the
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: way this goes, because they're chasing him and they're like,
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: where is he? Maybe he's in here, and they like
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: try the handle of the door a few times, and
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: you hear them just like attempting to turn it. Finally
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: a guy and like they try and turn it for
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: a while before one of them finally says it's locked,
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: and of course they assume it was locked. When Loofy
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: passed as well, so he can't be in there, and
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: one of them yells, let's try down there, and he
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: says this, and all of them go yeah, like it
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: was just a very funny moment because they're treating a
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: simple statement of like let's look further down the hall
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: as if it's like a plan of attack and they're
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: really gonna get him. And I'm like, that's not the
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: appropriate response to somebody just making this simple suggestion, but
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: either way it does not matter. So his sister is
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: not letting Mufy out, and of course he's irritated because,
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: in his opinion, he's got some important shit that he
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: needs to do and she's getting in his way and
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: she has to explain he knows about putting already. It's like,
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: don't worry about that, and Loofy is like, wait, he
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: knew this whole time, and she has to be like, no, no,
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: he just found out. But I think that he doesn't
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: really know what to do because this, the way that
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: they're holding everybody on the barrazier over his head is
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: making him really twitchy, to which Lufy inevitably is like, oh,
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: I'll go fight for those guys, no problem. I have
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: no zero issue with fighting for the guys on the
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: barratier and making sure that they're safe, which, of course
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: you don't, Lufy, nobody ever doubted you for a moment
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: that that is exactly the attitude that you were going
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: to take. We love you, but uh she is is
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: The main thing for Lufy is the fact that like
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: putting being a known quantity, that the whole idea of
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: her taking them by surprise isn't really gonna work because
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: it's a you know, the it's not even not gonna
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: work because it depending on the way that Sonji feels
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: about how this is, like how he has to handle this.
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: She may still be able to attempt pulling it out,
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: but at least Sonji is working with full information here
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: whatever it is that he has to do, you know,
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: Solufy decides, Okay, I was only here to ensure that
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: Soanji didn't get surprised. But if he already knows, you
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: know what, I'm going to go back to our rendezvous point.
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: I am going to hold up my end of things
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: from when I said I wasn't going to eat anything
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: until he cooked it, and we like there's a lot
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: of moments in these episodes of the camera zooming in
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: on Lufy's stomach and us hearing it gurgling and growling
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: because he's hungry. And it didn't even like occur to
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: me the fact that Sanji had made this whole little
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: picnic basket that he was bringing to Pudding's room. So
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: we get this delightful moment. Guys, I was so tickled
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: by this. We are seeing Sanji in the hallway and
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: like he left the bouquet of roses outside Pudding's room.
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest, I don't think this is actually
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: going to be an issue, but it did occur to
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: me that that might have not really been the best
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: thing to do, because it seems to me that you're
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: letting her know that you were there. You know what
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: I'm saying that, like, maybe you shouldn't give any signal
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: that you were even outside her room because now it's
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: going to potentially be brought to her attention that you
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: know things, You know what I'm saying. I don't know
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: that I, like I said, I don't really think that
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: this is actually an issue, but it did sort of
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: make me go, I don't know that I would have
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: done that, buddy, you know, but he's still got the
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: basket of food, and I have been sort of thinking
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: to myself, like earlier once when Lufy is swearing, I'm
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: not going to eat anything unless you've cooked it, I
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: was like, but how is that even gonna work in
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: this story? If he's getting this hungry already forgetting that
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: we have food Sangy has made himself by hand already
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: prepared that he is carrying around with him. Excuse me.
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: So now we have this moment of him looking down
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: at all the food he made, and he's looking at
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: it and suddenly goes, hold on, what did I just do?
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: And we get a montage of all of the straw
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: hats on like, each of them eating their favorite food,
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: and we REALI that that over elaborate meal that he
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: made way too much of in order to uh, you know,
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: treat we thought to treat putting like we thought he
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: was just overdoing it because he was so excited to
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: cook for her. But now it's looking like it was
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: just him and muscle memory essentially, and that he made
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: everybody's favorite foods without even thinking about it, just on
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: on reflex. I cannot tell you how much I've loved
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: this development, y'all, I really I found this like so
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: weirdly touching, and I think it's just because as somebody
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: who likes to cook for other people, I understand how
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: this happens. Especially if you are cooking for a particular
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: group all the time, you start to get to this
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: place where it's a it's second nature that you will
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: leave out certain ingredients that you know somebody doesn't like
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: or everybody had XYZ reaction to what you made last time,
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: and so you instinctively will adjust what you're making to
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: appeal to them, even though sometimes they're not even around
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: and they're not going to be eating it. I had
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: this a little bit myself when I first moved down
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: here and left my husband. He could not take like
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: chunks of tomato and stuff, and I would always use
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: an immersion blender to completely blend tomato sauce into like
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: a thinner consistency so that there were no chunks in it.
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: And I like, I went to get my immersion blender
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: the first time that I made pasta sauce and then
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: suddenly realized I didn't have to do that anymore. And
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: also another time where I was like thinking about how
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: much I missed cheesecake but my ex husband did not
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: like cheesecake, so I never made it. And then the
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: first birthday that Marshall had, he specifically requested cheesecake, and
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: I was just so excited because I, like, you know,
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: I just never made it because Brendan didn't like it.
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: So you get into these kind of grooves and the
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: idea that they're so in his mind that even when
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: we thought all of this was a big show for putting,
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: we find out no, it's not. It was actually for
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: the straw Hats even then in his heart. I am
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: so sorry, kids, but that is the best. That's the best.
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: I love it so so much. Ser Frumcis. I'm so
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: with him on that hating chunks of tomatoes thing, which
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: is it was like kind of a blessing and a
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: curse because tomatoes are like my favorite food. So on
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: the one hand it was annoying. But on the other hand,
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: if I had some really nice airloom tomatoes, I knew
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: they were safe, that he wouldn't touch them. So I'm
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: gonna look at this list that Florian put in the
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: Chat of Strawhat's favorite foods loofy meat on the bone.
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: Obviously we all know this one Zoro white rice balls?
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: Really zorro? The sit are? Is there something on the inside.
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry about the coffin, guys, I really am. I
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: feel like I imagine rice balls to have fish or
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: bean paste or something in the center, but I actually
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: don't know if that's it or not. No me is turines,
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: which that's kind of a cheat because he doesn't have
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: to cook that. Those are just a thing that she likes.
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: Oos up Grilled pike, Now that's very specific and interesting.
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: Curious about that one, like what grilled pike has? Have
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: any of you like seen pike on a menu anywhere?
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: I am, I don't know that I've ever even had it,
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: And yeah, I don't know. I'm just uh, it's that's one.
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: That's one that I don't think I would ever have
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: been able to guess that in a million years. I
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: think the closest I would have gotten. If you had
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: been like, would he prefer sweeter savory? I think I
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: would have gone with savory, but I don't know. I
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: might have said sweet Sanji spy. I see seafood pasta
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: nice tony tony chopper, cotton candy, and all sweets. Definitely,
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: we saw what he did to that chocolate cafe. Oh
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: my god, I'm sorry. This is killing me, Robin. It
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: literally is just sandwich, now, Oda, I'm so sorry, bro,
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: but that is not a food. Like, that's not enough.
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: You can put anything between two pieces of bread and
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: call it a sandwich, and that doesn't mean that that's
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: her favorite sandwich. You gotta tell me what kind of sandwich.
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: Like that's bare minimum, especially when people are out here
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: trying to be like a hot dog is a sandwich?
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: A hamburger? Or is a sandwich? The possibilities for what
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: constance used the sandwich make the declaration that her favorite
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: food is a sandwich meaningless. So you better do more
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: than that, Frankie hamburger. Oh okay, that's specific enough, Like
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: I'd like a little bit more, but that's fine, brook Curry.
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: I'm surprised by that one. I thought Brooks was gonna
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: be something related to like tea, because you guys know
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: that we had that interstitial image where it's like a
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: violin leaning up against this beautiful chair with a whole teapot,
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: and so I thought it was going to be something
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: a little bit more specifically elegant and like maybe pastry
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: or you know, curry like, I'm not mad at it.
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: I fucking love a curry, but I just wouldn't have
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: put that jinbai. Nobody cares. But okay, mozogu seaweed in
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: vinegar with fruit garnish. Okay, again, he's not a straw hat.
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: I'm so sorry, so whatever. Florian also reminded me that
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: the thing that Opera was allegedly torturing Lufy and Nami
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: for was to find out more about Lola and where
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: she is. I keep forgetting that anybody cares about Lola,
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: but uh, you know, let's see. Saraphim says the Zorro
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: liking rice ball things is a pun. His main attack
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: is ony geary, which, depending on how you read it,
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: could mean ogre slash, demon slicer or rice ball. Okay,
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: that's funny. Bernadette says, I think Robin's is sandwiches because
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: she can eat them while reading. I like that as
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: a theory that basically Robin's whole thing is just like
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: finger food. That would be you know, I was talking
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: about this with somebody the other day, like the difference
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: in the way that a lot of us perceive certain
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: foods and their roles because I just covered an episode
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: of Supernatural with Rashaan where there is something on a
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: diner menu called a pagan poke, and I was very
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: much like, what the fuck? And somebody said that it
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: was a uh pig in a blanket, and I like
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: straight up didn't believe that, because to me, a pig
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: and a blanket is basically a hot dog wrapped up
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: in like crescent dough pastry that you it's it's finger
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: food that you serve at, for example, a a football game,
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: And to me, it being either a breakfast food or
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: something that you would order at a sit down restaurant
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: makes no sense at all, Like that would just not
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. But when I began to
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: think about it, I just began to realize, like how
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: differently we all view certain foods and their role. And
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: like a lot of culture's fish is a breakfast food
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: you have that first thing in the morning. I think
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: that's fantastic. I love fish for breakfast. I just love
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: seafood overall. I'm very savory, and it's to me, like
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: just one of those things that I wish the US
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: embraced more is various types of fish with breakfast. But
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: you know when people here like discover that that's the
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: thing in other countries, they're always sort of like what.
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: And all of a sudden, I was like, oh my god,
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: is a pig in a blanket like a breakfast food?
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: Am I crazy? Is it? Me? And uh, eventually finding
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: out from a friend that like she's trying to just
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: like makes those for all kinds of meals and it's
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: not a party food for her at all, you know,
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: but anyway, nobody cares. So I'm trying to like go
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: through some things. But I'm jumping around enough still even
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: though I'm doing my best to like follow the actual
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: unfolding plot. So we've got Nami riding on Jean Bay's
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: back down the halls. As he's running, I keep forgetting
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: just how gigantic Gene is compared to everybody else. He
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: is just extremely tall and broad. Soji May starts to
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: be like, Okay, we're really gonna need to do something
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: to like get rid of the guys who are chasing us,
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: because there are too many of them. They're beginning to
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: block our path. It seems like we're getting surrounded, and
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: Nammy is like, okay, you know what, let me let
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: me handle these and she pulls out her clim attacked
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: uh Rod and uses a lightning attack, not realizing that
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: Chopper has just hopped out of a mirror to try
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: and help her, and she's apps him. She apps him
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: so good. I felt so bad the way that he
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: just completely got like flattened by this thing. I was like, no, Choppy,
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: I felt so bad. He's He's on the ground with
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: his like mouth half open, staring bemusedly, and I was
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: watching it with my husband and I literally just went
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: all the poor baby. She just he just looks so sad,
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: and despite the fact that he has been like kind
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: of knocked out, she is able to still go through
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: the mirror and jimbay as well and get into the
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: mirror world away from everybody. So I want to jump
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: over to Big Mom has still got Brooke in her clutches.
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: It's a weird there's a weird energy here, guys. That
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: kind of made me be like, if Brooke were able
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: to fuck, which I don't think he can because he
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: has no flesh, but you know, I don't know, perhaps,
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: but if he were able to, I really think that
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: Big Mom would have him become part of her harem.
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: I really think he's There's just an energy to the
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: way that she reacts when she finds out that he
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: was able to damage one of her I think it's
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: prometheus that he is able to like cut deeply enough
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: that it's actually a problem. Prometheus is like, what the fuck?
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: Nobody has been able to do this before, and she
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: herself is going, really, they have not been able to
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: do that before. That is pretty impressive, okay, buddy. Like
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: she is gratified by it, and there was just a
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: vibe to me of like, I I am impressed enough
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: by this that I might have been interested in propagating
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: some children with your skills. Perhaps possibly, I don't know
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: if that's just me, but that's the vibe. Oh my god, Bernadette,
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: I am going to boot you from this chat. Bernadette
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: just commented, are you saying that Brooke can't have a boner?
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: I hate you so much? How dare you? Oh my god,
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: look at what you're doing. You're making me have another
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: coughing fit. So she's decided that, like, she's not gonna
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: put him in one of those books because he is
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: so unique and special that she wants to hold onto
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: him and to be able to like look at him
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: whenever she feels like it, and I this is just
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: extremely funny because it's very much giving child who won't
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: put down their favorite toy and takes it to bed
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: with them. You know, it's just there's just it's just funny, guys.
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: I don't know, especially because the way that she's manhandling
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: Brooke and just waving him around and the way that
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: he's animated just extremely kind of passive and like letting
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: it happen and just sort of allowing his head to
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: like bounce every which way like he is very much
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: just given up. I found that so funny. I really did.
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: It's just not what I expecting. I really didn't think
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: that Brooke was going to be so completely and thoroughly got.
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: That's I think what keeps shocking me the most is
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: it's one thing for him to be cornered somewhere, to
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: be in a position where it feels like somebody better
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: show up soon. You know, this is not that There
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: is no more literal way to say that he's in
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: her clutches. That is just factually what is going on here,
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: and it is dire. It's got me concerned, not gonna
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: lie so Anyway, we go back to Uh Jimby in
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: the mirror world and he's explaining to all of them
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: about the Roulette wheel, because we still hadn't gotten an
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: explanation about this, and he says that he looked at
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: it and he could only see death and evil. Pedro says,
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: you were wise not to spin it. Five years ago,
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: my partner was faced with spinning that wheel, hoping he
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: might be saved from Big Mom's wrath, but instead she
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: stole away his life. Believe me, it is designed in
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: such a way that whoever spins it is sure to die. Honestly,
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: I was not expecting that. It's almost too obvious, if
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: you get what I mean. I think that the thing
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: that I ran up against with it was just everything
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: from what I could see on the board on the
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: Roulette wheel, it did not seem like there was a
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: single spot that you could land on that you didn't
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: get something really bad happening to you. It was like
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: the Queen ones I assumed was her taking your life force.
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: Or you lose a head, or you lose an arm
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: or a leg, all of which are really, really terrible.
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: So I figured that's enough bad options that they must
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: be literally correct that they have to be true, and
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: finding out that it's like there's no possible way that
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: you don't get killed. It's just so extreme, you know.
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: I was just I am not I'm not even really
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: mad at it, because like, now that I think about it,
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: it just does make sense that it's fixed, completely fixed
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: from top to bottom. But I'll be honest, I just
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: didn't really expect that to be the case for whatever reason.
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: And the way that Brulet reacts I thought was sort
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: of interesting, where she just says, what do you freaking
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: idiots expect? She doesn't let people leave this place alive.
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: Whether you're just trespassing or you're a traitor, doesn't matter.
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: The people who come to her are welcome because they're
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: putting her themselves in her service. But if you're trying
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: to leave, then you're not loyal to her and she'll
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: kill you because that's just how she roll. And I
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: am kind of enjoying this development because it's just a
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: different I have been thinking of Big Mom. Not reasonable
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: is not the right word, you know what I'm saying,
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: But it's like there has been something that felt thoroughly
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: rational in some of the ways that she dealt with
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: people where I was sort of like, Okay, that's evil,
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: but I get it, Like I understand why you would
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: do it this way. But this is a moment where
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, she's got like a kind of like
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: a crazy girlfriend energy of like if I can't have you,
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: no one can kind of vibe, which adds like, obviously
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: this bitch is not well. Right, we can all agree
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: big Mom isn't okay. But there was a feeling for
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: me a lot of this time of she's not okay,
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: but if you know how to deal with her, then
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: maybe you can like make a thing work out. And
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: now I'm starting to be like, oh no, uh huh,
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: that's not true. You absolutely there's no dealing with this woman,
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: and I personally really like that. Actually, the fact that
• 44:08
  Speaker 1: it's a no win it puts me in a place
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: where I'm like, Okay, at least I know where I stand.
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: You know. I don't want this to be true, of course,
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: but I kept trying to find a way that we
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: could sort of like work around her insanity and fine
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: and alternative in a similar way is what Sanji was thinking,
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: where he was like, I'll just go negotiate with her
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: and make some kind of deal to get my friends
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: out of this. I was thinking in a very similar
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: way of like there has to be some like something
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: that she wants that I can appeal to, you know,
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: And now I'm at a place where I'm going, oh,
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: it's is just like there's no winning. That's not how
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: this is set up, which I should have realized just
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: the way that she's planning on handling German Kingdom, that
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: she's wanting to not just like get power, like access
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: to power through them, she wants to kill everybody and
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: take complete control. So it was very self evident actually
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: from that. But even that I think I was just
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: being like my judgment was clouded because I don't like
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: German Kingdom at all. So for me, the fact that
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: she's like, you know what, I'm gonna take this whole thing,
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: a big part of me was just like, yeah, do it,
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: because fuck these guys, you know, I just didn't. I
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: wasn't invested enough in whether they were okay to give
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: a fuck, and thus it wasn't really something that concerned
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: me or made me stop and go, maybe I should
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: reevaluate the way that I'm seeing this lady. It's also
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: you know I was. I was saying things about how
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: she was trying to plan this wedding and that people
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: better not get in her fucking way. But the truth
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: is she's not even really planning a wedding. She's just
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: planning an ambush. And the like she says something, she
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: goes through it. It's very funny to me because she's
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: holding Brooke Pudding comes in in the last episode, and
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: I'm forgetting that Brooke doesn't know yet about her. So
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: she says something to her mother about like, are you
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: sure you want to just like hang on to this skeleton,
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: and Brooke is fully like this skeleton, really, that's how
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: you're gonna talk about me and is feeling a bit
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: of a way. And then she continues on about you know,
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: like we've got them right where we want them, YadA YadA,
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: and begins to like put two and two together and
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: suddenly going oh no. And then Big Mom describes in
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: searing detail exactly what she is planning to do at
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: the wedding, and it's like, this is her kind of
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: monologuing the way that I would be thinking about a
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: thing that I'm super excited about, you know, like take
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: my wedding day when I was planning it, and the
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: fact that you know, I could be thinking, Oh, he'll
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: do this, and then I'll do this and we'll have this.
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: But it's the sort of thing that I only do
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: in my head. I'm excited. I'm just thinking through all
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: of the stuff that I have got planned. And she's
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: saying it all out loud with this gusto about how
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: like all eyes will be on you, the blushing bride,
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: and then Soanji will lift your veil, probably with a
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: goofy grin on his face, and then she says, expecting
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: to see his beautiful wife to be until he sees
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: that you have a third eye and finally understands the
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: kind of horrible monster you really are. Something like that.
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: She is so incredibly insulting, and it's obviously bothering pudding.
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: To me, it seems clearly like putting is feeling hurt.
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: I don't even know if hurt is really the right word,
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: but I think it's the best word. I understand why
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: she's not saying anything further about it, and she's not
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: making an issue out of it, because like, I would
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: not say a goddamn thing to this woman. Are you kidding? Me,
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: but I was struck by the fact that she seemed
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: to be sitting by and listening with a great deal
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: of indignation and resentment. And I don't want to say
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: that I felt bad for her, but I was sort
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: of like, that's really humiliating because the way that Putting
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: keep's behaving is she's sort of acting as if I
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: have my own power here because my mother dotes on
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: me so much and I have this ability, and thus
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: I am am important somehow. But then her mother talking
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: about her in this way is really making you feel
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: like you're not a person to me either. Don't get
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: it twisted. You know, I don't give a fuck about you,
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: and I am not like I don't respect you. Don't
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: be ridiculous, How could I, you know, there's that sort
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: of vibe that is hard to watch. Even though she
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: deserves to be like treated poorly because she sucks, she
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: also like the reason that she deserves to be treated
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: poorly isn't about the fact that she's got a third eye.
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: We've got a lot of weirdos in this universe that
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: have a much like stranger look to them, and everybody
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: just fucking rolls with it. But the fact like it's
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: the kind of thing that's almost funny in the sense
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: of like when when you are in the year twenty
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: twenty five and every kind of fetish is catered to
• 51:11
  Speaker 1: on different corners of the Internet, and even things that
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: are meant to be for children, like comics get hyper
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: sexualized cartoons, et cetera, and you begin to see the
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: way that fully grown adults lust after women who are
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: aliens and have like extra arms and no hair except
• 51:40
  Speaker 1: for tentacles. The idea that somebody who looks like Pudding
• 51:47
  Speaker 1: but has a third eye would just be so repulsive
• 51:50
  Speaker 1: that no man could possibly want her. There is just
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: no way that any dude who was like into women
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: would have that much of an issue with this third eye,
• 52:05
  Speaker 1: especially in one piece world, never mind in our actual
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: real world. If she were walking around looking as fine
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: as she does normally and then was like, I have
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: something to tell you and it's going to be kind
• 52:17
  Speaker 1: of free heat, and then she showed a dude that
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: she has a third eye, I can guarantee ninety percent
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: minimum of guys would just be like, that's not a
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: problem for me. Whatever, You're just you're just unique, baby,
• 52:30
  Speaker 1: Like they wouldn't it just it would so big. Mom
• 52:34
  Speaker 1: saying this to her is especially funny in that regard
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: to me of just like, oh, he would never want you.
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, if anybody is going to look past
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: a third eye, are you kidding it's Augie, that would
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: have been no issue whatsoever. Bro didn't even care if
• 52:47
  Speaker 1: women had legs or not when it was mermaids. That's
• 52:49
  Speaker 1: an't that was nothing a third eye. Please get out
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: of here with that. So anyway, say I talked about
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: this meeting that happens a little bit later, Oh right,
• 53:03
  Speaker 1: And then Loofy is trying to get back to the
• 53:06
  Speaker 1: rendezvous point and he has to go down into town
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: and it's like pouring rain. He is really getting exhausted
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: because he is so hungry, and he keeps facing up
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: against different people on the streets that he is having
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: to fight against. And I should mention that it looks
• 53:26
  Speaker 1: like Loovi has permanently lost a tooth. It's interesting because
• 53:31
  Speaker 1: the animation will sometimes have it look like character's lost
• 53:35
  Speaker 1: a tooth right after they've been beaten up, but it's
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: just meant to sort of illustrate a point, the same
• 53:39
  Speaker 1: way that they'll have big lumps on their head and
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: then you know, like six frames later they're back to
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: normal and it's fine. So I kept sort of waiting
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: for that with Loufy, but his missing tooth is still
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: there even now, and he is really pushing it. He
• 53:55
  Speaker 1: is starting to get worn out going up against various
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: weirdos on the street. One guy is able to like
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: roll himself into a ball and come at him. Another
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: guy is able to throw all of these knives. The
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: guy within knives has also got like a hat on.
• 54:13
  Speaker 1: It's the sort of hood with bunny ears that is
• 54:15
  Speaker 1: very much giving Louise Belcher from Bob's Burger's like, I
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: just kept thinking about her with this, and all these
• 54:25
  Speaker 1: dudes are really they're making a valiant effort, but they
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: have severely underestimated Loofy, and he is he's able to
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: dispatch them, I'm gonna say, without much trouble, even though
• 54:39
  Speaker 1: obviously he's in bad shape by the end of this.
• 54:41
  Speaker 1: He's got that white eyed thing where he's breathing heavy
• 54:45
  Speaker 1: and barely able to like lift himself back to his feet.
• 54:48
  Speaker 1: So when I say very little effort, I mean, like,
• 54:52
  Speaker 1: if he's in shape this bad, but he still manages
• 54:56
  Speaker 1: to take them out on his first try. That to
• 54:59
  Speaker 1: me seems like pretty easy peasy, And so he like
• 55:03
  Speaker 1: continues making his way over there with the rain pouring down,
• 55:08
  Speaker 1: and it seems like everybody else who was gonna come
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: at him, he's done. There's nobody else facing him, and
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: Sanji we go back to him briefly, and he's thinking about, like,
• 55:24
  Speaker 1: I am sure the straw Hats are going to be
• 55:27
  Speaker 1: able to take care of themselves and get out of here,
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: but all like, what will happen to the Baratier guys?
• 55:38
  Speaker 1: The evil army of vin Smokes will die. Maybe this
• 55:45
  Speaker 1: is for the best. If I just go through with
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: it and she gets what she wants, it'll put an
• 55:50
  Speaker 1: end to all of it, which I would argue at
• 55:56
  Speaker 1: this point, Soanji, that's nonsense. It's one thing if you
• 56:05
  Speaker 1: were saying this and it was like and you hadn't
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: already seen the way that she like lies and twists things.
• 56:15
  Speaker 1: But now the idea that you go through with this
• 56:20
  Speaker 1: and she winds up leaving everybody else alone or you know,
• 56:24
  Speaker 1: it just felt for me like you have to be aware.
• 56:30
  Speaker 1: It's just very much in this moment to me that
• 56:33
  Speaker 1: he has lost hope and just doesn't know what to do,
• 56:36
  Speaker 1: so he's telling himself whatever in order to keep himself going.
• 56:43
  Speaker 1: And he is sitting there just sort of spacing out
• 56:48
  Speaker 1: in despair thinking about all of this. And by the way,
• 56:52
  Speaker 1: there had come a point where some of the henchmen
• 56:56
  Speaker 1: go to check on him in his room to make
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: sure that he's still there, and they think that it's
• 57:03
  Speaker 1: Sanji in bed sleeping, and I thought, oh, Sanji had
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: the foresight to realize they were gonna check on him,
• 57:13
  Speaker 1: And so he has set up this like fake you know,
• 57:18
  Speaker 1: this fake out version of him that is that looks
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: like it's him breathing. No, no, no. It turns out
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: that all it is is the little egg plant man
• 57:30
  Speaker 1: got got a bit sleepy and decided to like kip
• 57:33
  Speaker 1: in Sanji's bed for a little bit and take a nap.
• 57:37
  Speaker 1: And when he wakes up, it's it's feeling very much
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: like he didn't really even intend to fall asleep, that
• 57:47
  Speaker 1: this is unexpected. Oh I'm in I'm in bed, like
• 57:51
  Speaker 1: dude didn't even plan. Not good at his job. Just
• 57:55
  Speaker 1: needless to say, eggplant man, you need a demotion. You
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: are not up for it, my friend, So here Sonji
• 58:04
  Speaker 1: gets interrupted by one of the other henchmen coming up
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: trying to see which one it is, and he the
• 58:13
  Speaker 1: bobbin is his name. He has grabbed the uh, the
• 58:19
  Speaker 1: meat on the bone that is meant for Loofy, and
• 58:24
  Speaker 1: tries to take it. He is just helping himself to
• 58:29
  Speaker 1: all the food that's in this basket that Sonji made,
• 58:33
  Speaker 1: and this causes Sonji to completely lose his shit. It's
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: a great it's a great little like, oh, maybe I
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: should just give up on all this and let go
• 58:44
  Speaker 1: and my friends will be fine without me, and YadA YadA.
• 58:47
  Speaker 1: And then the second that somebody is just like, oh, well,
• 58:51
  Speaker 1: then you won't be needing this, he's just like Fargio
• 58:54
  Speaker 1: and just like goes for it, and immediately he starts
• 58:57
  Speaker 1: running towards Loofy and thinking to himself, what the hell
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: am I doing? And I just really enjoyed this. There's
• 59:04
  Speaker 1: something else I'm covering today that there was like a
• 59:06
  Speaker 1: similar moment where a person acted like, oh, I guess
• 59:09
  Speaker 1: I'll just let it be, and then as soon as
• 59:12
  Speaker 1: somebody else was like, oh, you're just letting it be nice,
• 59:16
  Speaker 1: they go actually fuck you and fuck everybody around you.
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: And it's such a very real, like human reaction to
• 59:23
  Speaker 1: me to just kind of It's fine if I say
• 59:26
  Speaker 1: a thing because I'm in the pits of despair, but
• 59:29
  Speaker 1: if you say it to me, I never want to
• 59:31
  Speaker 1: see your face again. You know, Yeah, I get it.
• 59:37
  Speaker 1: So anyway, that's the end of that episode. That's the
• 59:42
  Speaker 1: two of them. But I'm enjoying this arc a lot,
• 59:46
  Speaker 1: very very much and looking forward to seeing I'm hoping
• 59:52
  Speaker 1: that in the next section we get Sanji and Lufy
• 59:56
  Speaker 1: reunited and Lufy getting to eat some of the food
• 59:59
  Speaker 1: that made I am sure it will not be enough,
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 1: but if he breaks his fast onto food that Sangi cooked,
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 1: then perhaps he will be free to eat a bunch
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 1: of the other stuff. And I would love it. I
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 1: would love it more than anything if what Lufy eats
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 1: to power himself up for a showdown with Big Mom
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 1: is the actual wedding cake, because it would make her
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 1: so mad. She has been so protective of that wedding cake,
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 1: and that's that's the real way to get at her
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 1: and needle her is to fucking eat that. So fingers crossed.
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 1: All right, everybody, I am going to wrap this up.
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 1: Thank you all again for hanging out with me, those
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 1: of you who were here live. Thank you to those
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 1: of you who are listening. Sorry again about all the coughing.
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 1: It seems to have finally calmed down, but I don't
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 1: know what happened, and I will be seeing you again
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 1: soon with a new episode next week because this Thursday
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 1: I took off. But I appreciate all of you and
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 1: we'll see you soon. Until then, totaloo motherfuckers. That was
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 1: an unspoiled network podcast.
