0:04
What's up, Y'all? And welcome back to Danny's
0:06
talk. I'm your host, Robert.
0:08
And today, today, we're gonna be touching on all the stuff from
0:13
the most recent places instead of play.
0:16
The new movie, the new movie, Argyle.
0:19
Lots of Xbox rumors. But before we get to all that,
0:26
as always, if this is your first time here, then welcome.
0:29
But if you're returning listener and or watcher, then welcome
0:32
back. Y'all know her advantage to
0:34
talk. It's all about fatherhood and
0:37
family manga, anime, TV, movies and video games.
0:42
So I hope everybody out there has had an awesome day and
0:47
awesome week or awesome weekend or whatever the kiss may be
0:52
whenever you listen to this. I've been doing all right.
0:56
As y'all can see I don't look like a wild animal anymore.
1:02
Finally went and got a long overdue haircut.
1:06
But you know life has just been super crazy and stressful this
1:10
last month. And of course with the being
1:13
really cold I didn't mind having the the the thicker hair and
1:17
facial hair and stuff whatever, but it was time to go for it to
1:21
go whatever. So me, me and Vash went and got
1:23
some haircuts end of last week and stuff.
1:27
So and yeah, just kind of just business as usual, you know,
1:33
kind of had a pretty solid last week, work was straight or
1:38
whatever. Stuff around the house was
1:40
solid. Got some stuff done that needed
1:42
to get done. We're kind of in the home
1:45
stretch of the basketball season for the school, so we're kind of
1:50
entering into district tournaments and all that stuff,
1:54
whatever and final games and stuff.
1:57
So and then we'll transition into maybe have like a couple
2:02
weeks break or whatever and then it's going to be in the track
2:04
season. So yeah, as y'all hear my loud
2:08
child in the background, but but yeah, aside from that, nothing,
2:14
nothing too, too crazy going on. One thing I was saying shout out
2:21
is that it's very dope with the power of technology that we have
2:30
nowadays and especially for younger people and stuff.
2:34
Because my wife had discovered that one of my oldest son's
2:42
classmates, they're in 8th grade, reminds you he has
2:46
started his own Instagram page and YouTube channel and stuff.
2:55
Whoops, hold on. Of course I don't have a set up
2:59
right. OK, I found it.
3:05
His Instagram and his YouTube page is both called I believe.
3:08
His name, I believe is pronounced are Rob shot it.
3:12
And so he started a recording the basketball games and stuff
3:16
for the school, which is like super dope because some of y'all
3:19
may remember a few weeks ago I was talking about how there is
3:23
somebody that we've known in the area for a while that records a
3:29
lot of, you know, AAU games and stuff.
3:31
And he'll come down no record, just school games and stuff,
3:33
whatever too that we had hired like a month or so ago next, you
3:37
know, this is like right before Christmas and he did a fantastic
3:41
job and stuff and stuff. So but yeah, shout out to this
3:43
young man, he's actually on the because I I was asking my son
3:48
about it earlier and he's actually on the on the 8th grade
3:54
B team whatever. But yeah, he he recorded this
3:59
and did the clips and highlights and all that stuff himself.
4:03
So I'm sorry, I don't actually have the full shot on here.
4:07
Whatever, which has his logo and stuff in it.
4:11
But yeah, I just want to just want to shot him out or
4:13
whatever. Like it's like it's like super
4:14
dope that you know somebody that's you know still so young,
4:21
you know and stuff, whatever, but is able to through the power
4:24
of technology and stuff. Whatever we have now is able to
4:28
kind of start working and getting this experience now.
4:31
And who knows where they might lead him, you know, in the
4:34
future and the stuff he might be able to do because of, you know,
4:38
him starting off like this, whatever.
4:39
And like I said, it's just super dope, 'cause I think I might
4:44
have mentioned that with that thing with the other video and
4:46
everybody. Like how it would be cool if the
4:50
school had like a dedicated team or person to do this for these
4:55
kids and stuff, whatever. Because you know, that's how
4:58
stuff is now with social media and with how you know just how
5:03
busy and stuff stuff is or whatever.
5:05
You know, it's like, hey, you want to try to have footage of
5:08
your stuff somewhere or whatever.
5:09
So you know, it's kind of cool that he's started to do this
5:13
himself. And so yeah, just like I just
5:16
wanted to shout, shout him out. Like I said, it's called a Rob
5:20
shot it so AARAVSHOTIT. So yeah, go check him out, show
5:30
him some love and support. Yeah, play.
5:35
Aside from that, yeah, nothing else.
5:37
Too much is going on life wise, you know, just kind of likes to
5:40
just handle business, just wait for some stuff to kind of wind
5:43
up or wrap up soon or whatever. So, but yeah, I guess we're
5:48
going just jump right into some of this stuff that I want to
5:52
touch on or whatever, 'cause I'm gonna try to hopefully keep this
5:54
episode short or whatever. But let me think, I'm gonna
5:59
start with the gaming stuff, 'cause that's the biggest thing,
6:01
whatever. And then I'll talk about Argyle
6:03
a little bit later. And so I'll put the time stamps
6:08
for everything as I usually do, whatever, so you can jump to
6:11
those topics, whatever that you want to discuss.
6:13
So yeah, so starting off with this PlayStation state of play.
6:18
So, so some murmurs and stuff started happening, happening
6:25
couple weeks ago, whatever about certain things might get shown.
6:29
So it's kind of OK Hey, there must be a state of play or
6:31
something coming up soon and showing up last Wednesday we got
6:36
one and got to see a few pretty cool things.
6:42
So at least things that that were cool to me.
6:46
So yeah, So and I'm just going to go just off of the official
6:49
PlayStation blog. They just have everything that's
6:52
in alphabetical or whatever. But we got confirmation that
6:58
David Diver is coming to PS Five.
7:01
I think it's about it's about this summer or whatever.
7:04
I think may it's going to have some Godzilla DLZDLC, which is
7:08
interesting. The deaths, this new Death
7:13
Stranding to now subtitle on the beach.
7:17
This trailer was super wild, but super fantastic.
7:24
I still have yet to play the first step stranding, but I
7:27
would say that this trailer had me just like just like had my
7:32
attention gripped and so I was like, yo, I might have to maybe
7:38
try to find some time before this this one comes out or
7:41
whatever to dive into the first one because I have it, because I
7:45
think they give out like the regular version of it on
7:48
PlayStation Plus a year or plus ago, whatever.
7:51
So I added it to my library and now I have a so but definitely 2
7:55
looks freaking wild. They touch on Dragon's Dogma 2.
8:00
Don't really have any interest in that too much for my personal
8:03
taste from Stars. I think that's actually out now,
8:09
but I don't have much interest in whatever.
8:11
But it is on PlayStation Plus. Who knows, maybe one day I'll
8:15
circle around to it and give it a shot, but I don't know.
8:19
Hell Divers 2 is actually coming out next week within a matter of
8:25
days, and I believe they announced that it's going to be
8:31
getting, I think like all DLC and stuff, whatever for the game
8:35
will be free. So they're going to do free
8:37
updates in DLC and stuff, whatever.
8:39
So as the game's life goes on. So yeah, I've got to mention
8:43
with desk training two, they didn't put a firm date on it,
8:46
but they did say it's coming out next year.
8:48
So yeah, yeah, let me see Judas. This is the new game from Ken
8:55
Levine, the creator behind Bioshock and BioShock Infinite.
9:02
So his new studio, his new game, this trailer looks super dope.
9:07
Definitely get the obvious Bioshock fives.
9:10
If you didn't already know, it was made by the guy who created
9:12
Bioshock. Well, hey, now you know, and
9:16
that also has a release year listed for next year.
9:19
In 2025 as well, they showed a couple of new PSVR 2 titles.
9:24
This Legendary Tales and then this Metro Awakening VR.
9:30
So both of those are kind of interesting.
9:33
Rise of the Ronin, I'm already excited for this.
9:36
So this Dragon Dogma 2 and also I found out that Princess Peach,
9:43
Showtime game, whatever on the Switch.
9:45
All of these are coming out on the same day so that's just kind
9:50
of funny but by a rise that are on in my type of game.
9:53
Still looks dope. I was already long soldering or
9:55
whatever but it's cool to see more in depth game plan stuff of
10:01
it. But but yeah so that's coming
10:03
out on March 22nd. They announced and released a
10:09
free short Silent Hill Experience called Silent Hill
10:14
The short message that's free to download on PS5.
10:19
I don't know if it's on PC or anywhere else, but I know for
10:21
sure it's on PS5. Say I don't do spooky stuff for
10:25
them, so this does nothing for me.
10:26
Same thing with this, they showed some more footage of a
10:29
Silent Hill Two remake, Don't Care, Sonic X Shadow
10:33
Generations, That's coming later this year.
10:38
Now the one I love the most from the showcase we got to see like
10:43
a six plus minute presentation for Stellarblade.
10:49
This game is way bigger than I think most of us anticipate a
10:54
lot. A lot of us thought it was just
10:55
going to be more of like a linear style type of action
10:59
game, but it's got going to have like some like semi open world
11:03
or open areas, zones and stuff, whatever with it.
11:08
One of the things that I super, super loved was the variety of
11:13
outfits that that the main character had on in the trailer
11:18
and stuff. Hey yeah so like I said just
11:21
just a variety of outfits and those who are watching the
11:23
YouTube version of the podcast just showing just like a few
11:29
that they showed in the in the trailer or whatever.
11:32
So but but yeah it it was it was just like super dope to just see
11:39
that variety and the outfits and stuff.
11:43
And also of course the biggest thing we got aim for these days
11:46
coming out on I believe April 26th on PS5.
11:49
So I would be all over this. It kind of has like I said, kind
11:53
of like people. A lot of people kind of saying
11:55
it's kind of got like a like a mix of some Bayonetta some Neuro
11:59
Automata and difference like that with like the with the way
12:04
the action stuff works and then without some of like the kind of
12:09
like open area stuff with the with the missions and side
12:13
quests and stuff whatever go. So but yeah stellar blade, ha
12:17
ha. On my list that I'm looking for
12:20
the plane. They confirmed the Until Dawn
12:24
kind of like remaster, more like a remake.
12:27
Because this is going to have actually let me see if I can
12:33
find the the thing talking about the changes to the game.
12:40
Let me see, 'cause that was talked about the other day.
12:49
Until Dawn, where are you? Sorry, give me one second to
12:55
find this. But until Dawn poo poo poo.
13:10
Yeah, I can't find it. OK, here it is.
13:16
I found it. So they're rebuilding the game
13:20
in over Engine 5 S New and improved animations, new
13:25
locations, interactions and collectibles they added in,
13:30
added in a third person camera and some other stuff too,
13:33
whatever. So it's like OK, this is more
13:35
than just a, you know, remaster. This is like a full rebuild of
13:42
the game. So which is pretty interesting.
13:44
So but yeah, so that's what's becoming I think later this year
13:48
some game called V Rising have no interest in and then Zen Zen
13:53
list Zone 0, don't care. But yeah, that that's it for the
13:59
stuff from the state of play. So like I said, the highlight
14:03
for me was Stellar Blade because that game looked phenomenal and
14:08
like I said it was just like even with all the action stuff,
14:10
whatever, I was already sold on that side of it, of it or
14:13
whatever. But like I said, I just
14:15
appreciate it, the attention to details on like I said, I was
14:18
watching this six minute long thing and every so often they
14:22
would show the main character in different outfit, different
14:24
outfit, different outfit, different outfit is like yo for
14:27
one, y'all know what y'all doing and two it is just very cool to
14:30
just see some variety and the appearances and stuff of
14:35
characters that you spend a lot of time with and stuff.
14:37
So but yeah, that that's definitely my biggest take away
14:43
and and let me see where is it backlogged.
14:50
And so this kind of got me thinking and looking ahead at
14:59
stuff that's coming And so you know a lot of people are like,
15:04
Oh my God, I need more games, I need more games, I need more
15:06
games and stuff, whatever. But for me and my taste and just
15:12
because of how busy my life and stuff is, is you know, I don't
15:16
have a lot of spare time as is, let alone to really even play a
15:22
million different games and stuff.
15:24
So, so like how I'm looking at it.
15:27
While yes, there's still some question marks, at least
15:30
speaking with PlayStation specifically on what might be
15:34
coming in the later half of the year, I don't care.
15:38
We'll we'll get, we'll cross that bridge when we get to it.
15:42
But as far as like this first part of the year, I'm fine.
15:47
I am fine because I'm barely able to keep up with a little
15:51
bit of stuff that I'm playing now because I'm gonna show you
15:55
all this. This is this is a site that I
15:59
found thanks to some people I follow online or whatever called
16:04
backlogged. So BACKLOGGD to where basically
16:10
it's a site that you can kind of like track your games and make
16:14
make lists and notes and reviews and stuff, whatever like that.
16:18
Because I wanted to try to find something that kind of functions
16:22
the same way that Annie list does for me with anime and
16:26
manga, for my video games and stuff, whatever.
16:29
So they like at the end of the year I can kind of look back in
16:32
my activity like that. OK, this is what I was playing,
16:35
this is what I was doing, so on and so forth.
16:37
And so I kind of made like a little small list of like stuff
16:40
that's for sure must plays for me on my radar this year.
16:45
And I'm fine for like the first half of the year because it's
16:48
like I for for one, I still haven't even finished playing
16:52
through a God of War, Ragnarok Valhalla, that came out in
16:56
December, I think. I'm pretty glad they had like
16:58
one more chapter and that's I need to finish that up.
17:01
And then for January, Prince of Persia, the Lost Crown.
17:04
Still working my way through that and still enjoying it.
17:07
I just got Suicide Squad, killed the Justice League the other
17:11
day, but unfortunately I haven't really had time to really play
17:14
it just because life, kids, sports and stuff, whatever.
17:17
So I hadn't really got to touch my game much this weekend like I
17:23
was hoping I would, but it is what it is.
17:26
But I'm bad. So that that's kind of my main
17:29
game for February, just because I'm not too big into RPGs and
17:33
stuff for us. So I know a lot of people look
17:35
or or playing that grand blue Fantasy Relink or that Persona 3
17:41
Reloaded or Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth at the end of the month.
17:45
So but that was just on my style of game so you know I got
17:49
Suicide Squad and stuff and then later in the month there's also
17:55
Banishers, Ghost of New Eden. This is the new game from don't
18:01
nod the The Life is Strange original creators that say
18:07
action RPG game. So I'm looking forward to that
18:10
Rise of the Ronin just talked about that Tales of Kinzara Zao
18:16
that's coming out of Rise of the Ronin is at the end of March,
18:21
Tales of Kinzara is early April and then Stellar Blade is end of
18:26
April. So I'm good you know because
18:32
Cause Prince of Persia that's maybe like a 10 to 20 hour game
18:36
I think Suicide Squad. I think for like the story mode
18:39
I'm hearing like 1012 hours. That's fine by me.
18:42
Don't know about Banishers. Rise of the Ronin, that's
18:45
probably going to be at least a 20 plus hour game.
18:49
Testing his RU not sure. And still a blade.
18:52
I can estimate that probably be around 1520 hours or so as well.
18:56
Possibly maybe even more. But by also, I'm personally fine
19:01
with what I have on my plate for the coming months and stuff so
19:08
so so I don't have nothing to really complain about my gaming
19:12
needs and stuff right now. So aside from that, oh, I do
19:22
want to shout out that where is it that Friday?
19:33
So PlayStation has done a couple of really good documentary
19:39
series like talking about like like the making of certain games
19:42
and stuff. Whatever.
19:43
Probably the first one I ever watched was the Santa Monica
19:47
studio about the God of War 2018 game, the development and stuff
19:52
of that game, whatever. It's called a God of War.
19:55
I think it's like raising Kratos, whatever.
19:57
Super fantastic. Getting to see all the behind
19:59
the scenes from the. The beginning through the launch
20:02
and stuff of the game. Before that though, they had
20:08
originally did one for Last of Us, one called Grounded.
20:13
So I had just recently watched that in the last couple of years
20:16
or whatever, and that was really good.
20:18
Talking about the journey of making that first game all the
20:21
years ago, whatever. And then now we have Grounded to
20:27
the making of The Last of Us Part 2 and it is fantastic
20:31
obviously. And they say this at the
20:34
beginning of the documentary, whatever.
20:36
But do not watch it unless you have played Last of Us two or
20:43
you just don't care about spoilers.
20:44
Because of course this is the very in depth details about the
20:48
behind the scenes of the game. So there's tons of story
20:51
spoilers and stuff, whatever, especially a super big one about
20:56
the game, whatever. So but I just wanted to shout
20:58
that out or whatever for people, for people who were interested
21:01
in the behind the scenes looks of gaming and stuff, whatever
21:04
and especially for Naughty Dog and places and stuff, whatever.
21:09
But yeah, I watched that throughout my day because it was
21:11
slowly at work luckily on Friday.
21:13
So took some time to to kind of watch that while I was chipping
21:17
away some work projects and stuff, whatever.
21:19
But but yeah, it was, it was fantastic and interesting to see
21:25
that whole process of from back when they first started, the
21:30
ideas and stuff of the game to, you know, the changes and what
21:40
you know, expanded and changed and all that different stuff,
21:44
whatever. And also man, just like the
21:47
insane work they put into producing the attention to
21:56
detail that they do with their games.
21:57
Because there there is a reason why Naughty Dog is one of like
22:01
these like high benchmarks for a game productions and stuff
22:07
whatever. Because like if you watch this
22:10
grounded to documentary and see like the links they go through
22:16
for sound effects for making sure that OK, hey you know if
22:20
somebody gets shot up against this type of brick wall OK how
22:25
does blood run down it or whatever or hey, you know, the
22:28
clicker said like dude, just like so much attention to like
22:33
the smallest details that they even admit in the documentary
22:37
that most people probably won't even notice whatever or care
22:41
about whatever. But yeah, it it was just like
22:44
just mind blowing to see whatever And then of course
22:46
seeing how they dealt with you know delays and stuff, whatever.
22:50
And obviously COVID happening and stuff in there.
22:55
And then of course the big leak that happened with the Last of
22:59
Us two and how that just mentally destroyed a lot of the
23:01
team members and stuff. But yeah, it it it was super,
23:05
super good. So I highly recommend checking
23:06
that out. I'm trying to think what other
23:11
gaming thing I was going to mention real quick before I get
23:14
to the other big, big one. That might have been it.
23:20
State of play, last of last of his documentary.
23:25
Yeah, yeah, that. That's it for that.
23:28
So Next up I want to touch on rumors.
23:36
Rumors are swirling around for Xbox stuff.
23:42
So this started like a couple weeks back or whatever where it
23:47
was kind of like rumors stuff whatever about like hey see if
23:52
thieves and high fire rush we're going to I think like see if
23:56
these for sure to PlayStation and then high fire rush to
24:00
PlayStation and and Nintendo Switch or whatever and so and
24:05
we've got more and more evidence especially for high Fire rush or
24:08
whatever so but yeah so so you know the the the the stuff
24:13
started bubbling for that or whatever well earlier today
24:17
literally just like several hours ago whatever.
24:21
More stuff has kind of been leaking and rumors swirling
24:25
around that they're potentially Xbox is potentially looking at
24:31
bringing much more to other platforms including bringing
24:37
Starfield to PlayStation Five later this year.
24:41
Potentially. Once again rumors, which is
24:43
where I'm gonna say this is Xbox rumors, but it's believed that
24:49
later this year after they released the that first
24:53
expansion, I think it's called Shattered Space for Starfield,
24:57
that after that is out on Xbox and PC, then the full full
25:02
edition of all of it or whatever will come to PS5 later in the
25:05
year. There's talks of or rumors of
25:09
the Indiana Jones game that's supposed to be coming out very
25:13
late this year, is going to be coming to PS5 probably early
25:17
next year or whatever, or some months afterwards.
25:23
What else did was in there. Boom, boom, boom, boom.
25:29
Sorry, let me so I can find this stuff, 'cause I have, I have
25:32
retweeted some of it on my personal account.
25:39
Or I thought I did. I definitely thought I did,
25:48
maybe not, but basically my point is that it seems like at
25:53
some point this month there's going to be some type of Xbox
26:01
official confirmation or something about their new plans
26:09
and stuff going forward in the future.
26:14
Sorry, I'm trying to scroll through and find the information
26:18
again, 'cause there's just been so much stuff happening.
26:25
But anyhow, I ain't got to find the full listing, whatever.
26:29
Basically the point is, like I said, lots of firmers and stuff
26:34
swirling that, yeah, lots more Xbox exclusives are gonna start
26:39
making their way over to, for sure.
26:41
PlayStation Five and stuff. Whatever.
26:45
Yeah. And they might kind of be
26:47
changing their strategy of how they are handling those things,
26:52
whatever. So which for me personally, I
26:55
don't really care because I have all the systems or whatever.
27:00
I have a Nintendo Switch, I have several Xboxes in the house, I
27:03
have my PS5, so don't really care whatever myself, but it'd
27:08
be pretty cool, just like more stuff on my platforms or
27:11
whatever. So, But yeah, so that's pretty
27:15
much it. As far as with those Xbox
27:17
rumors, I just wanted to just touch on very briefly, sorry,
27:23
let's see if there was something else.
27:25
And I think I think that might be it for the gaming stuff that
27:29
I wanted to touch on, let me check.
27:34
OK, yeah, that that's it for the gaming stuff.
27:36
So Next up, I want to just give a quick shout out to some quick
27:39
manga stuff today because aside from me going to see our guy,
27:45
which I like, I'm gonna talk about in a minute.
27:47
I also stopped by Barnes and Nobles and just browse through
27:52
the manga section, which I'm gonna touch on that stuff in a
27:54
second, but just wanted to shout out.
27:57
So I had read volume one of a new manga coming out this week
28:01
called Gazing at the Star Next Door.
28:06
And it's a it's a romance series, like like like a romance
28:14
slice of life series that basically follows these two
28:19
childhood best friends who grew up together and stuff whatever.
28:24
And then the male character, he ends up slowly becoming his
28:35
acting and modeling career and stuff whenever starting to take
28:38
off. So he's becoming more and more
28:40
famous and stuff, whatever. And so it's just kind of just
28:43
following this. These young people, whatever
28:48
likes it, they're there, I think second years in high school,
28:50
whatever. But just kind of, you know, the
28:53
the female best friend, you know, having these feelings and
28:58
stuff for him, but wandering with his rise and stardom and
29:02
popularity, if he is becoming out of her reach and if he even
29:07
feels the same way that she does.
29:08
Like it was very sweet, very wholesome, nice read and stuff.
29:12
And like I said, definitely something interesting to think
29:14
about because we all know or think probably think about
29:17
something like that all the times where it's like, you know
29:19
the people, the couples and stuff, they were together before
29:24
some one of them or both of them were famous, whatever, and just
29:27
kind of stuck being with that person all throughout and stuff.
29:30
So just wanted just to give a quick shout out to that
29:33
collector that's coming out later this week.
29:39
The other manga stuff I wanted to shout out.
29:41
So while I was at Barnes and Nobles, like I said, I ain't
29:43
been in there in a while and so just always just like this, just
29:47
browse and stuff where I spent like an hour there just taking
29:49
my time coming through the shelves or whatever.
29:54
Shout out to Sis, to Bicky Bisco, the the novels for this
29:58
man, because I hope to someday get over my mental hurdle for
30:06
reading novels and stuff, man, 'cause I really want to give
30:10
this a try. Because for while it wasn't
30:15
perfect, I really really still think about every now and then
30:19
that first season of the anime just because of the the world
30:23
and the setup and the law and stuff.
30:25
Whatever was just so enticing that I went out and I had bought
30:31
the 1st novel of it or whatever back when the season one of the
30:35
anime came out. Which has been two years ago
30:37
now. Which is wild to think about.
30:41
But I just haven't really delve into it because it's it's tough
30:44
for me to to to read without pictures and so and so going in
30:51
and seeing more of the volumes that or whatever of the novel
30:56
since the last time I looked there on 6 up to volume 6 right
31:01
now and the volume 7's come out in a couple months.
31:03
I'm like Dang. And I saw online that the Arthur
31:06
pretty much confirmed that that volume 10 is going to be the the
31:10
last one or whatever. So in Japan, they're already up
31:13
to volume 9 is out. But but yeah, so I already have
31:17
one. So I just needed to take this,
31:19
take the plunge and actually try reading it or whatever.
31:22
But but yeah, I just wanted to shut out some big with Bisco
31:25
man, this Joker opera one Operation Joker.
31:33
So apparently this is a manga series about basically Batman
31:39
falls into a VAT of D aging chemicals, whatever.
31:45
That turns him into a baby. And so pretty much the Joker you
31:50
know, can't function without his rival.
31:53
Whatever. So now Joker is a single father,
31:57
raising Batman to be the best hero he can be someday so that
32:03
he'll get his arch rival back. So it sounds like a funny good
32:07
time. Whatever.
32:08
So. But yeah, when I saw these
32:09
covers I was like, yo, how have I not heard of this one ever?
32:12
So hopefully someday I'll get around to to checking it out.
32:19
Major major shout out to unwanted undated adventurer.
32:24
Y'all know I have talked about this series so much because the
32:30
anime is airing right now. And then one of my mutuals that
32:34
I'm following has started reading the manga as well and I
32:37
saw the cover of what whatever volume that they were on.
32:40
Other time I was like, man, that cover looks beautiful.
32:42
Well, who knows these these volumes have probably been on
32:46
the shelves for who knows how long, but because I wasn't
32:49
really aware of the series until the anime, whatever, I never
32:51
paid attention to them and stuff.
32:53
And so I saw volumes 1-2 and six on the shelves.
32:58
Whatever for unwanted undead adventurer and yo like the
33:05
attention to detail, the beauty of the art and stuff.
33:09
When I saw it in person, in my hands, whatever, I was like this
33:13
is stunning. The volume covers all look
33:18
fantastic. And then when I flipped it to
33:20
the inside and actually looked at some of the panels and stuff,
33:24
whatever, I was like the art of the panels and stuff look super,
33:28
super well done too. And I was like, man, at some
33:33
point when I when I have more space and more money and stuff,
33:35
whatever, I think I want to start collecting this with her.
33:38
Because I also was seeing some differences between some of the
33:44
manga stuff already and some of the stuff I've seen in the
33:46
anime. And we're only like 4 or five
33:48
episodes into the anime so far 'cause I prime example of the
33:53
the blonde haired chick at the at the Guild office or whatever
34:00
that kind of helps adventurers, helps rent register, whatever.
34:06
You know, in the anime she just has these two just like, you
34:09
know, blonde curly ponytails or whatever.
34:14
While in the manga she has a freaking like a top hat type of
34:18
dope looking thing or whatever. And I was like yo this was cool
34:21
and so I'm like man, I'm gonna have to circle back once this
34:25
season is over and see what's up with the Mongo.
34:27
But yeah, I just want to just shout that out.
34:30
And the Weakest Tamer began a journey to pick up trash.
34:36
So the Weakest Tamer is just such a sweet, sweet, sweet and
34:41
wholesome anime that follows this young girl who basically in
34:48
this world when you reach age 5, you're giving basically
34:51
basically a special ability, whatever to use.
34:56
Well she gets a tamer ability, but it doesn't have similarly
35:01
any stars, which is seen as like evil, sacrilege, all that stuff,
35:07
whatever. So her family dishonest, her
35:09
people in the village go to store hunting her down or
35:12
whatever. All this stuff, not the other
35:13
thing. I don't even know if I ever
35:14
talked about the anime, but anyway, this happens.
35:18
So she bitches off into the wilderness, out into the world
35:21
on her own to escape, whatever, and then just begins her own
35:24
little journey and stuff, whatever, Under a new name, new
35:28
disguise and stuff, whatever. And it's just just such a sweet
35:31
year, heartbreaking series or whatever.
35:34
And so we're just like, with Wanted Adventurer.
35:39
I check. I found the the volume comforts
35:41
for this and there's just as cute and adorable as the anime
35:45
and stuff is I did. I didn't show volume to because
35:48
it had something someone on the cover that I was like, that's
35:53
probably going to be a spoiler for upcoming episodes so I won't
35:56
show it or whatever, but but yeah, just wanted to shout out
35:59
like I said my my little excursion over to Barnes and
36:05
nobles and stuff. So like I said, just just
36:07
checking out some manga stuff, whatever.
36:09
But yeah, so a lot, lots of stuff on my radar, man.
36:13
Like I was present to that section and so many series that
36:17
I enjoyed the first volume or two of and I'm like crap,
36:20
they're on volume. You know what now?
36:22
Volume 6, Volume 8, volume 10. So, but I'll get there someday,
36:30
All right. So now I'm going to just briefly
36:34
and I'm not going to do like no super big Long John I think but
36:36
I just wanted to just wanted to shout out Argyle.
36:41
So Argyle is a movie and actually let me see I can get.
36:52
So it it is basically kind of like a action spy comedy type of
36:58
series is kind of the best way I can describe it to where And of
37:04
course I'm not going to do no no major spoils or whatever.
37:07
I'm just basically just describing the movie, but come
37:12
on app. Say I went app to unload, but
37:17
basically follows this writer who is an author of of what is
37:24
thought to just be a book series called Argyle that follows the
37:27
spy going going on adventures, yadda yadda yadda welcome to
37:32
find out the stuff that she that she is writing is actually
37:36
happening in real life. And so she actually gets pulled
37:40
into the spy world and they're trying to get her to write the
37:44
next book, the next chapter of her book to kind of help them
37:50
get ahead of the bad guys and all this stuff, whatever.
37:52
And so just just to read off some of the cast of this movie.
37:59
So the main person in the movie is a Bryce Dallas Howard.
38:05
So Sam Rockwell, Henry Cavill, John Cena, Dua Leaper, Bryan
38:11
Cranston, Ariana Dubois, Samuel Jackson, Catherine O'Hara.
38:18
It's just like a ridiculously stacked cast for what is
38:24
probably was probably one of like the goofiest things I've
38:27
seen in a long time. But I mean that as a compliment
38:30
because so I was looking at, you know, I was, I was like, you
38:34
know what? I've been trying to go see a
38:35
movie for the for the last couple of weeks, but like I've
38:38
talked about before, my life has just been crazy and busy and
38:40
stuff, whatever. But I was like, no, Robert today
38:44
you're going to find a movie to go see and stuff, whatever.
38:46
So it's between this and then American fiction, which I'm
38:49
still planning to go see in a couple of days.
38:53
But I was like, you know what? I need something kind of a bit
38:56
more goofy or whatever to watch. And so I'm gonna go and see this
39:02
and so First off I want to give a shout out.
39:04
So apparently this movie was was made in collaboration with Apple
39:09
and so if you pay at least to the Fandango movie app or
39:14
website or whatever, if you pay with your with a Apple Pay
39:20
account and use the discount code Apple Pay, you'll get $5
39:27
off the movie. So I already went to go see it
39:30
at a mayonnaise showing at like 11:00 AM this morning or
39:33
whatever. So it was already going to be
39:36
cheap. But then I got the $5 discount
39:38
on top of our already discounted viewing.
39:40
So I pretty much only paid $3 out of pocket to go see the
39:45
movie. And that was pretty much mainly
39:46
just for the processing fees or whatever and stuff.
39:52
So, so yeah. So I was like, hey, a dumb, fun,
39:55
good time, whatever for $3. Hey, you can't beat that.
39:58
But yeah, it it it, it ended up just being two hours.
40:02
Some change, like I said, in the best way, just like some kind of
40:07
like fun and kind of mindless. Turn your brain off.
40:12
Just have a good time type of movie 'cause I say it is, it is
40:17
goofy, it is corny, it is cheesy and some aspects whatever, but
40:21
they're just like some moments that are just like so.
40:24
Bonkers to where it's like, OK, what I have seen on screen right
40:29
now is beyond comical. But yeah, like I say it, it was
40:36
just a good fun time, whatever. So say, so shout out to our guy,
40:39
like say there's two hours of some change.
40:42
I will say that first half was like super, super strong or
40:46
whatever because it seemed a little bit more.
40:51
I don't know if if serious is the right word, but like a
40:54
little more, you know, stricter tone.
40:57
And then by the time the end of it or whatever it was some off
41:01
the wall zany stuff that was happening in that back half of
41:05
the movie that, you know, at first I was kind of like what?
41:08
But then I was like, you know what?
41:09
Just turn off brain robber. Just just taking all this
41:14
craziness that is that that is just happening on screen right
41:22
now. Stuff with them.
41:23
So, but man, shout out to our guy.
41:25
Like I said, just so many people that I just enjoy their works
41:29
and stuff. Freaking Bryan Cranston and
41:31
Samuel Jackson and John Cena and Henry Cavill all in the same
41:35
freaking movie. Yeah, yeah, it it was dumb, dumb
41:40
fun. But but so that's our guy.
41:43
Like I said, if you want just something goofy to watch for a
41:48
couple hours, like I said, ideally I would say go to maybe
41:51
like a a matinee showing or you know, don't don't, you know, go
41:58
out everywhere to go to like, Oh my God, see this in IMAX at the
42:00
most expensive time of day and the most expensive theater
42:04
unless you just have the money to blow.
42:06
But but yeah, it's just All in all fun, good time and yeah, I
42:12
think that's it. As far as like stuff I checked
42:14
out this week. Yeah, not a whole lot going on.
42:18
Like I said, unfortunately I didn't get to play and do as
42:21
much gaming and stuff as I was really, really as I really hoped
42:28
I would. But hey, that that is just the
42:32
the nature of my life and stuff. But yeah, like I said, hopefully
42:38
in the in a couple of days I'll go and see American Fiction.
42:42
Hopefully I can dive into some of these games and stuff.
42:46
I'm trying to think is there any where is my any list Just taking
42:55
one quick look to see. Is there any anime stuff I
42:56
wanted to shout out before I go? Nah, Nah, not the too much I
43:07
want to touch on this week. Anime wise.
43:13
Yeah yeah. Not that I need to go into
43:15
whatever, So just I'm just still watching and enjoying the stuff
43:19
that I'm watching. There's already a few things
43:21
that I've already fallen a few episodes behind on that you
43:27
know? I'm kind of reaching that point
43:28
where life and stuff is just so busy to where stuff is just
43:31
naturally getting weeded out just by me not having a time.
43:37
More like the the urge to want to rush, to watch certain
43:41
things, whatever. Cuz like I am now a couple
43:45
episodes behind our strongest tank.
43:48
I'm a few episodes behind on Mr. Villain's Day Off watching the
43:52
Beast. I'm a few episodes behind Doctor
43:55
Elise. I'm a few episodes behind it.
43:57
Sure I'm a couple episodes behind and Sasaki and Pete
44:02
Sasaki and Peeps, but Sasaki and Peeps or whatever.
44:06
I I I just needed to go and knock those out because I'm
44:09
really interested in keeping up with that one.
44:11
And sure, I'm on the fence on, but but yeah, so lots of stuff
44:19
to keep up with. Like I said earlier, lots of
44:23
crazy stuff going on in the gaming space, lots of stuff to
44:26
play and lots of stuff to talk about.
44:28
Cause 'cause Speaking of which gaming stuff, real quick I'm
44:32
gonna mention I told my wife I was like, I was like, man, next
44:37
time if I get some some extra money to blow whatever I said, I
44:41
am getting the girls another new Xbox, whatever.
44:48
Or more than likely what I'll do is I'll finally probably get my
44:51
wife the series X and then give my daughter's her series S So
44:56
that kind of weed out these people out of my room because
44:58
I'd be like one of the chilling restaurant.
44:59
I'm like, OK, if my wife is gone running errands or working or
45:03
whatever or taking a nap, then my daughter's going to come in
45:07
and take turns playing on her Xbox, whatever.
45:09
And I'm just like, I just want peace.
45:13
It's my day off. I want peace in my own room, but
45:16
it is what it is. Bad thing.
45:17
I definitely want to try to get them their own Xbox and stuff,
45:21
whatever, and get them situated in and out my room and hopefully
45:29
maybe even be able to stack my hands on a PlayStation portal
45:32
soon as well to just to the hey, while I'm here in my little
45:37
space. I could still maybe be playing
45:39
some of my games and stuff so but they knew enough Chitter
45:43
chatter and rambling. Shout out to everybody out there
45:50
in the nerd communities and stuff.
45:53
Whatever, everybody that's out there, Twitch streaming, this
45:55
podcasting that's creating everybody that's out there just
45:59
living their lives and stuff, whatever.
46:01
I know life is busy, life is hard at times, whatever.
46:05
We all got stuff going on, but hopefully we can continue to
46:09
come together for things like this, to talk about the stuff
46:12
we're watching, the stuff we're reading, the stuff we're playing
46:15
and everything in between, and the the the life experiences
46:19
we're having in a fun and respectful manner.
46:27
But wait, so with that, I think I'm going to wrap things up.
46:34
Oh yeah, And hopefully, you know the stars and life aligns soon
46:39
to where I might be able to start maybe start ramping things
46:41
back up to start back collaborating with others.
46:45
Because I got people that's been requesting me to be a guest on
46:49
their podcast and shows and stuff, whatever.
46:51
And then of course I got my long list of people I want to have
46:54
discussions and stuff with as well.
46:55
But all in due time, but hopefully sooner than later.
46:59
But yeah, so with that being said, thank y'all so much for
