- 1:49but I did do that special episode about God of War, and
- 1:55fatherhood, and gaming that I did back when Ragnarok came out
- 2:02and there's also vanishes birthday.
- 2:03So those of y'all that checked out that episode, I hope you all
- 2:06enjoyed it. That was something that was very
- 2:09Near and dear to my heart just because like I said, like my
- 2:13experience of that first year of fatherhood with Vash and been a
- 2:21gaming parents and all the other life things that happened along
- 2:25the way and the months leading up to his birth and then that
- 2:28first year after he was born. So yeah, so I hope you'll check
- 2:32that episode. I hope you all enjoyed it.
- 2:36And everything. Yes, you know, forgive me.
- 2:40If things seem a little Off or whatever.
- 2:44Like I said, it's been a minute since I've done like a regular
- 2:46episode, so finding my footing, again, finding my groove again,
- 2:53but I am very happy to be back. Like so we're going to have a
- 2:57lot of things to talk about. We're going to do a lot of, you
- 3:00know, housekeeping a life talk up front and then we'll dive
- 3:04into, you know, the fun stuff as we normally do.
- 3:09So what is Rob been up to that's last month.
- 3:19Now as this episode is titled Almighty.
- 3:24Pause shout out to pain from Lauren's house but I had to do a
- 3:34big pause on a lot of things to kind of get myself in order, get
- 3:40my life in my family, kind of an order.
- 3:43And after we're really, you know, stuff and some of y'all
- 3:47know this available just like the last like couple episodes.
- 3:50I was talking about it on those episodes but of course things
- 3:55was going on different stuff going on or whatever.
- 3:58And so I literally hit pause On a lot of stuff, just because
- 4:05things were just kind of getting so hectic and out up and out of
- 4:08hand to where it was something like.
- 4:12Once I did it, I was like, duh, of course Robert, why didn't you
- 4:15do this sooner? But in the moment, you know,
- 4:22life is just happening, you know?
- 4:23Just like Crazy thing about the crazy thing at the crazy thing
- 4:27is just happening back to back to back and it's kind of like
- 4:30got you on your back foot, you can't really, you know, get your
- 4:33balance right. But then once I got my balance,
- 4:36right? And I had something to actually
- 4:37sit down and think, and so yeah, so once I kind of took some time
- 4:44and like, slow down and thought of my options, I was like, oh,
- 4:50Pausing moving stuff around because like I said, a big part
- 4:54of my stuff that's been going on whatever has been financially
- 4:59related. Just like a lot of stuff just
- 5:00kept happening and my money was just flying out the window left
- 5:04and right. Just trying to keep up and stay
- 5:05on top of things. And then they just enough for
- 5:09everybody out there. You know, whether you're young
- 5:11and just kind of get installed in the world or you're an adult
- 5:14or whatever. But hey, Sometimes the easiest
- 5:18solution is the solution and sometimes you just have to ask
- 5:23about your options because like I said, I like with the whole
- 5:27pausing thing, I literally went through my bank account, I made
- 5:31note of the okay, what exactly is coming out when or whatever?
- 5:35What small things keep tripping me up or catch me off guard or
- 5:40whatever and I was like, canceling subscriptions, pause
- 5:44and subscriptions. moving due dates around just because, you
- 5:50know, A lot of stuff that I kind of have had for years, like
- 5:55certain subscriptions or car payments or whatever, some of
- 6:00that stuff for set up with the structure.
- 6:02I had my on my last job or whatever.
- 6:05And so, you know, you change jobs, sometimes pay dates and
- 6:10pay schedules change and all that jazz.
- 6:12And so sometimes you have to kind of like reshuffling
- 6:15reorganized and so I did do that and that has been a tremendous
- 6:20help. Along with, I think, I think
- 6:23I'll talk about this. I come.
- 6:26If I told about another, if I didn't also got a big
- 6:32life-changing promotion at work A month or so ago, whatever.
- 6:39So that was another big. Part of the equation but it but
- 6:44that coupled with pausing stuff and just like, okay, let's take
- 6:50a step back, see what's going on?
- 6:53Move some stuff around and now we kind of getting things back
- 6:59on point. Your boy got a fresh haircut
- 7:01this week because I was looking, like, I've been in the
- 7:05wilderness. Not really, but close.
- 7:07Like I've been bumming for a while just trying to survive.
- 7:11And then there's okay, I can finally breathe again, all the
- 7:15extra hair and stuff. Whatever got to go and here, I
- 7:19am back. Happy to be recording again.
- 7:23So like I said, no to y'all, don't be afraid to pause call.
- 7:29These companies be like, hey, I'm having some problems.
- 7:32I need some help. What options do I have?
- 7:36And sometimes. All right, well we can, you
- 7:39know, pause this or move this. This hair or redo this that it,
- 7:44it does. And yeah.
- 7:47So that was a big help and along the way as you know, like I say
- 7:53at the end of every park, has treat yourself to something
- 7:55nice. And so I have done that over the
- 8:01last month. So first thing I did this is at
- 8:06the beginning of November. Now when I was trying to figure
- 8:08out stuff, whatever I was looking around my house and I'm
- 8:11like, I got a bunch of stuff that I literally do not use like
- 8:14I have my Like y'all know I got my I got the PS5 now.
- 8:21I've been fortunate enough to have one since lunch and I still
- 8:27have my lunch PS4 and you know, I wasn't keep it for a while,
- 8:31maybe keep it for Vash or some other kids and stuff.
- 8:35But it's like it's literally probably been sitting around for
- 8:38like close to a year now. And so if you don't know, Your
- 8:46boy knows how to look for a deal or how to maximize my profit on
- 8:54certain things especially when it comes to stuff like training
- 8:57in or buying or whatever. And so I was like okay and plus
- 9:05Y'all know I might have mentioned before whatever I
- 9:08worked at GameStop for many years so I know how certain
- 9:12things work. I don't want to sometimes it's
- 9:14the best time cuz I know the all the main gist of of like you
- 9:18traded your games, whatever game.
- 9:20So I'm going to give you two bucks for that was like, yeah.
- 9:22On a normal day. They probably will.
- 9:24But and this go GameStop best by whoever sometimes.
- 9:28You got to shop around, but you got to know this perfect time to
- 9:31trade in. And so, I did, I was okay, I
- 9:34really wanted. Get God of War, I don't really
- 9:36have, you know, just money to really blow on the game,
- 9:38whatever. But I was like, I'm not going to
- 9:42pay out of my pocket or whatever and so I trade it in my PS4 and
- 9:50A couple of old games that I haven't touched in years.
- 9:54And There was a bonus was like a 40 percent bonus or something.
- 9:59Whatever. If you try towards God of War,
- 10:02which they normally do. And so I got close to 200 bucks
- 10:07for every further. Few things I trade it in and
- 10:12whatever it was able to buy a gun for no problem, was able to
- 10:16finally upgrade and give me a new pair of gaming headphones,
- 10:21these things or so freaking comfortable.
- 10:24They're pretty much They are pretty much the upgraded version
- 10:30of my old ones. I have had these things pretty
- 10:36much since the, I think I got these things, probably close to
- 10:39win the PS4 launched, which is now been almost 10 years ago.
- 10:44So they did their due diligence, but one thing and, hey, they
- 10:48still work. But I hate it.
- 10:50Cuz if y'all can see like it starts like the stuff.
- 10:55But stuff, like a ripoff. And so every time I would take
- 10:57them off, I would have like these like little flakes from
- 11:00the stuff from the headband, whatever, all of my clothes and
- 11:05my hair. It was horrible, but they still
- 11:07worked and got the job done. Well, Now I got the PS5 version
- 11:14of the of the headsets and stuff that's got 3D audio and all that
- 11:18fun, Jazz and Bob both of those, whatever still has some some
- 11:23money left over even after all of that or whatever.
- 11:25And so, yeah, so it was just nice, got that little treat and
- 11:30then part of me my voice and then Treating myself to some
- 11:39manga last week because I also I hadn't been buying nothing
- 11:44because for one I really had an ego.
- 11:48I really wasn't even thinking about that.
- 11:50I'm just trying to trying to survive feed my family and
- 11:52stuff, but but I treated myself to a few Little Gems of manga
- 12:00show you real quick on the few things I bought.
- 12:04Because y'all know me, I don't really or I've I've Like become
- 12:08very picky with what I pick up and what I'm buying now,
- 12:13especially because I also have been fortunate to get access
- 12:19sometimes to like, digital review copies from some of the
- 12:23from some of these companies and stuff now, which has been a lot
- 12:26of my recent reviews and stuff which has been very awesome.
- 12:30But every now and then I still have to go in and just see what
- 12:33unknown Jim's. I might find and so I found a
- 12:36few some, or one of these. Already reviewed this week,
- 12:40which is a so Toki rhetoric. Now, this one takes place in
- 12:471926 during the showa era and it follows this young lady who can
- 12:53hear people tell lies. And so she is, you know, leaving
- 13:00her hometown because she's kind of shunned, you know, the whole
- 13:04situation is causing problems for her mom or family whatever.
- 13:06So she ends up running away. Way and just going to the to
- 13:10live on her own Captain. She's like 16 or so and she ends
- 13:14up meeting this detective and they end up, teaming up to solve
- 13:19cases and stuff. And so this was a very
- 13:22interesting read. So and this was actually a
- 13:24little slightly, hold a series for multi like 2012.
- 13:27But it just now got a a English print this year from a one-piece
- 13:33books, the publisher. So that was a pretty interesting
- 13:36read. These are all the ones I haven't
- 13:39read yet, but this thali daughter of the Moon.
- 13:48The art of the curve. Looks very interesting and the
- 13:52synopsis and stuff sounded interesting as well.
- 13:56Let me see, Lord boring raises his adopted daughter.
- 13:58Talia and secret for a good reason.
- 14:01Talia is a descendant of the summoner's magical women hunted
- 14:06by those who fear their mysterious Powers violently torn
- 14:09from her hometown tea, sets out on a journey in search of her
- 14:12Origins and to learn the secrets of her great and Dangerous
- 14:15Power. Now, the interesting thing about
- 14:17this too is that this is from a French publisher or from a
- 14:21French author. So, this is one I found.
- 14:25And literally hardly anybody had any reviews or anything on your
- 14:30whatever. So I'm very excited to dive into
- 14:32that because the art on that looks very beautiful.
- 14:34And this next one is Sky, Grazer, this one is made by the
- 14:41same author who does Heavenly delusion.
- 14:45Now let me see if I can find my copy.
- 14:49So Heavenly delusion. I'm showing a little bit of the
- 14:53trailer. This is a hold on because I
- 15:00think it shows something crazy but Heavenly delusion.
- 15:07Like I said, this is a series. It has an anime coming out next
- 15:10year and I read vol 1. Maybe last year whatever?
- 15:16I don't know, if I ever did her I don't never do like a sipper
- 15:18review for it. I might have talked about on the
- 15:21podcast back then I can't remember.
- 15:23But like I said, the sky Grazer was like a one-volume series
- 15:30that they did before Heavenly Heavenly delusion but Heavenly
- 15:33delusion kind of gave me some some promised Neverland kind of
- 15:42Vibes and stuff cuz there is some No sir.
- 15:48I had a kind of okay yeah because yeah, there there was
- 15:51some interesting stuff going on with Heavenly delusion but like
- 15:59I said it kind of gave me some some promised Neverland Vibes
- 16:04with some stuff that's going on and so I was like okay I'm
- 16:08excited for that. So when I saw this and I was
- 16:11like okay I'm pick that up and check that out too.
- 16:14So And last one more night off my list, I found Volume 2 of
- 16:24ikegami. The Ultimate.
- 16:26Now I just have three volumes of that.
- 16:28I need volume 1 5 and 10. Those are the last ones I need
- 16:33and I'll finally have the full set and I can maybe start
- 16:36reading this series but But yeah, so that's just about
- 16:44treating myself to last week, whatever.
- 16:47Like says, I always loved finding some some cool Little
- 16:51Gems and stuff. So, so, yes, I treated myself to
- 16:54that. Me and my wife went out to eat a
- 16:58really nice dinner over the weekend and there's a seafood
- 17:03place nearby. So we went there, it was so good
- 17:08because we went there for the first time some Months ago,
- 17:12whatever and discover that they have like lots of seasoning
- 17:16options, including lemon pepper. So having some lemon pepper,
- 17:21crab and lobster, and shrimp, and the potatoes.
- 17:26Yeah, yeah, we was in the in good.
- 17:30But yeah. So things are looking front of
- 17:34looking brighter and we're on the path back to, you know,
- 17:40bigger and better things. Which These two, the next big
- 17:46life development thing. So I can find it so Sports
- 17:53season. Middle School.
- 17:55Sports season has started for my kids, which has been exciting
- 17:59but also just like insane because of how business stuff we
- 18:04are now. Let's do this. so, My oldest
- 18:14boy, youngest daughter. This is from their first
- 18:18basketball game, a couple weeks ago and then this is both of my
- 18:24daughters. The first cock cross country
- 18:26meet a couple weeks ago. It's just been awesome and
- 18:31beautiful. Just seeing them Thrive and
- 18:34flourish. In this new environment and
- 18:39stuff and stuff further and you know, both my basketball kids,
- 18:45they're both currently undefeated and their Cup against
- 18:48that they've had so far. My boy showed out, I think he's
- 18:54he's had over 20 points both games so far my daughter.
- 18:58She had 15 that first game and cross-country.
- 19:04My oldest daughter. The one has been doing track for
- 19:06years, she at Eight in the first meet.
- 19:09And then she got seventh in the me yesterday.
- 19:13So and this is out and this is out of 200 plus kids.
- 19:19So, yeah, and in my other daughter, then she still she
- 19:22placed even like in the top 30 or 40.
- 19:25And she's not even hasn't even been running like that all these
- 19:28years. So but yeah, so that that's been
- 19:31awesome. But like I said, it's just made
- 19:32things very hectic and very busy, just because it's like
- 19:37Like Mondays is both of both of the, the kids play basketball at
- 19:42the same time. It's just one is playing at home
- 19:44Ones, playing away and then Tuesday or Wednesday, depending
- 19:48on what the schedule is, we got cross-country meets which is at
- 19:51freaking 4 p.m. who does 4 p.m. on a, on a weekday.
- 19:57So I'm like having to go to work early so I can get off early so
- 20:00I can drive across town to get there in time, but I love it.
- 20:06You know, it's just been super Some but things are just about
- 20:08to ramp up to an even higher level because we're about to
- 20:14start nag Nationwide travel first.
- 20:18Stop, my son has a tournament in Phoenix, Arizona.
- 20:24Oof and I end in the coming month or so.
- 20:30So we have to prepare for that. And look at the schedule we're
- 20:35going to be like, there's something in Florida Callie I
- 20:40think I have something Memphis like so we bout to be out there
- 20:46and on the road a lot and that that's just his stuff that's not
- 20:50counting, you know, the normal travel we do during the summer
- 20:53for my daughter's track stuff. So yeah it just got to be an
- 20:58exciting but very busy and expensive time.
- 21:06So please support your boy. You want to You know, donate a
- 21:11couple bucks on my patreon. Please do any penny counts, but
- 21:16yeah, so that's what's going on with that.
- 21:18So, so yeah. So and with that being said, I
- 21:24don't know what the schedule for the pockets and stuff is going
- 21:27to look like, I doubt that I will be able to go back to a
- 21:32fully every week schedule. I might know, there might be
- 21:36some spurs here and there where I can do like two, three weeks,
- 21:39whatever in a row but I doubt it's going to be every week till
- 21:43eternity or whatever just because like I said, it's just
- 21:47with how busy and stuff is whatever, it's just not
- 21:50feasible, but I will say, you know, I have been kind of like
- 21:55brainstorming different ideas and things that I want to do for
- 22:00the podcast. Whatever.
- 22:00Of course I want to do, I want to continue having awesome
- 22:06guests and stuff. On the podcast, I've enjoyed
- 22:10having people on this year because I really increase the
- 22:13amount of people that I've had on this year, and I hope that
- 22:15y'all is listeners and Watchers have enjoyed that as well.
- 22:20Because I have a lot of people, some of which I was supposed to
- 22:22be doing. Going over these months but it's
- 22:25like, you know what it's fine. I need to take care of life and
- 22:29family first and then we'll get to the interviews and the guests
- 22:33and stuff, whatever. But may I so look forward to
- 22:39mystery guest in the future for that stuff.
- 22:43So like I said, we'll just kind of play around with ideas and
- 22:46just see how things go. Going forward schedule-wise or
- 22:52whatever. But, you know, we'll we'll get
- 22:55things done. And I might have suffered from
- 22:59just a Manga reviews because I enjoy doing them, but I don't
- 23:01know. Some of y'all might like, I'm
- 23:03some of y'all might like better Robert.
- 23:05We don't care about this, but I have some other things in the
- 23:10works that I'm brainstorming about.
- 23:13That's I think you might enjoy. Because I pick the brains of one
- 23:22of my longest listeners and supporters mr.
- 23:25Matt, be shout out to you, man. I don't know if you might be
- 23:30listened to this song launch day, but I am literally
- 23:32recording this right after our right after our DM conversation,
- 23:39that I was tossing it. I did that I did to you in the
- 23:42the awesome feedback that you gave me whatever.
- 23:44So so yes, it looks so look forward to something new Lie in
- 23:49the coming months. It's a fun idea and I hope that
- 23:55you all enjoy to whenever y'all get to see it.
- 23:57So, With that said, let's dive into a little bit more how quick
- 24:04housekeeping things and then we'll dive into what all I've
- 24:08been watching and reading and all that fun stuff.
- 24:11So Couple housekeeping things or real quick like I said or like
- 24:17I've been saying the manga and webcam reviews have been
- 24:21plentiful over that's last month and so I encourage all to go and
- 24:27check out all of those. Come to think what?
- 24:30All because since the last Pockets episode, I did candy and
- 24:35cigarettes. I talked about a Kane Bonacci
- 24:40Mama of the blood taker night of the living cat.
- 24:43Cat died. Dark volumes 1 through 4, the
- 24:46world after the fall. yeah, let me see if I can, I don't know if
- 24:59I can yeah, but but yeah, so it's been a lot of stuff.
- 25:13Yeah, can you say where is tell Connie Mom?
- 25:15Oh, I live in cats. Warren.
- 25:19After the end, the carnivore special episode villains are
- 25:23destined to die. Prince.
- 25:25Freya volumes 1 through 7. So, what's wrong with getting
- 25:29reborn as a goblin, which is very dope.
- 25:32He Sakai about a person who gets reborn as a goblin.
- 25:37But the cool thing about this one, it's a very simple premise
- 25:41or it's a very simple thing that they like take the idea and
- 25:45expand upon because typically in this world God Ian's only live
- 25:49for seven days and so you know it's just like boom boom,
- 25:53they're in and out or whatever. Well, this guy gets reincarnated
- 25:56as a goblin and he has a special ability that lets him live 80
- 26:01years, which is 1000, many thousands of times over the
- 26:07normal lifespan of a goblin. And so he starts to kind of
- 26:10basically getting these goblins organized and all this stuff and
- 26:14maximizing their seven-day lifespan, all this stuff is
- 26:18really don't really Cool. Like I said with the Toki
- 26:22rhetoric and sneak peek, I will be doing a review for the
- 26:27remarried Empress so yeah, I got a little sneak peek on that one
- 26:33but as speaking of which I'll just say I your boy has fallen
- 26:37down a wonderful rabbit hole. Romance fantasy series because
- 26:47like I said, when I was destined to die was super awesome.
- 26:52Speaking of which I do not know, What algorithm?
- 27:01Or shout out to the show JoJo, say community, because y'all
- 27:05came through. Because I was talking to tell to
- 27:09friend friend of the podcast, who runs the show.
- 27:12Jake is a Shoujo, say World Twitter account, but my jaw was
- 27:23on the floor. So I put it this episode on a
- 27:28Friday I believe. Yeah I put this episode on a

- 34:06just because I know a lot of y'all are have already been
- 34:08aware of these couple people as passings but I of course had to
- 34:14pay tributes and and oh my Maj to two people who paid a very
- 34:20big role and my life growing up and some roles and characters
- 34:27that I loved and enjoyed. And of course that is Kevin
- 34:31Conroy. Who voiced Batman and the Batman
- 34:36animated series The Batman Arkham games.
- 34:39So many other things. And then Jason David Frank who
- 34:50V? Who was, of course, Tommy the
- 34:53green ranger from Power Rangers. Yeah, man.
- 34:58This, this was sad, you know, both of us losing both of them
- 35:03within like a week of each other.
- 35:07You know, just very unexpected, but But you know, I'm grateful
- 35:13for the life and the Legacy that both of these that both of these
- 35:19people left with us. Like I said just I loved the
- 35:25animated suit, Batman the Animated Series man that here in
- 35:29that intro me like I can hear pain in my mind right now and
- 35:33then and then I can see like the in recent years, the Batman
- 35:36Arkham games and just so many things a legend UND and same
- 35:43thing with Tommy, just him being in that role all these years
- 35:50even now, like, still coming back as like an Cameo Rose or or
- 35:54pulling up in certain preparing, Ranger special episodes.
- 35:58Did you just want one of the coolest?
- 36:01Coolest coolest. Dudes out there.
- 36:06But yeah, it just sucks to lose them both.
- 36:12You know, I don't know the full details on Jason situation
- 36:16because I don't know. Kevin Kramer, I know he was sick
- 36:20but I know Jason situation. I don't know, 100% details.
- 36:23I think he might have been you know, him and didn't himself.
- 36:31But I don't know the full details, but it's just a thing
- 36:33of like, you know, sometimes you just sometimes, you just don't
- 36:37know. What a person is going through,
- 36:41despite how they might look and sound and person.
- 36:45You never would think that somebody that you think is, oh,
- 36:48they happiest person or most upbeat, most encouraging person,
- 36:51whatever, whatever do that. But you never know because I
- 36:57unfortunately went through that with one of my professors from
- 37:01college, Did that last year sometime in the last in the last
- 37:07year and it's like when I got the message about that, whatever
- 37:11me and all my classmates and friends from college when I was
- 37:14like, wait, what him him really? But it's like you just don't
- 37:20know, you know, sometimes you just never know, people are just
- 37:24Sometimes people shelter certain things to themselves for just in
- 37:30might be, they don't want to worry either their family, their
- 37:33kids, their spouse, whatever, or who knows what the reasons are.
- 37:38But either way, you know, rest in peace to both of these
- 37:41Legends and everything that they gave to us.
- 37:48Now, next thing I want to touch on a little bit, So there was a
- 37:57whoops, sorry. Okay.
- 37:59There was a try, again, Stampede panel.
- 38:05Okay, sorry about that. I don't know if my stuff was
- 38:07lagging or what, but definitely. Hopefully, next year, I can get
- 38:13actual. I like a beefy PC whatever cuz
- 38:16your boy is getting too powerful for this laptop but many, who
- 38:21bomb? So tracking Stampede, they had a
- 38:25panel at a, at a Anime NYC few weeks ago and we finally got
- 38:38some information, some great information from that panel and
- 38:44I some sorry again, if my stuff is lagging I don't know what the
- 38:48heck is going on. Yeah, I don't know like what the
- 38:53heck is going on? but they, they did the first day
- 39:00of premiere of the first episode of the Dragon Stampede anime and
- 39:07And people saw it. And I heard very great reception
- 39:11from it though. It was kind of odd though that
- 39:14it's like, I had to scour the internet to find any information
- 39:18because I'm like this is probably one of the biggest
- 39:21premieres and I'm not I shouldn't have to hunt for
- 39:25information about this. It should be the I should be
- 39:26seeing people tweeting or talking about whatever and I was
- 39:29hearing nothing as so. Sorry, shot to to Yen from From
- 39:38who hope I'm getting much, I get it right because I want to I
- 39:41don't want to call out the wrong group.
- 39:45Okay, ya Yin designs from Studio model, because he was there and
- 39:50he went to the panel and he told me person.
- 39:53He was like. Yeah.
- 39:54Do it was dope. It was super awesome.
- 39:56So I was like, okay, cool, very, very, very, very glad to hear
- 40:01that. And so I finally found that
- 40:07Anime News network has somebody who went there and saw it and
- 40:11wrote up an article detail information about it is like
- 40:14finally somebody has some more information whatever.
- 40:19As so so basically, so I found out that This is supposed to.
- 40:28Tell the full story of the manga despite that change of they took
- 40:34out if I remember crying. I think Millie and they put in
- 40:38this older guy named Roberto, funny enough.
- 40:44But the article says that the, the director said that we will
- 40:50be adapting the for manga. Let me see if I can find the
- 40:54full quote. All right.
- 40:57Yeah, it says the pitch documents for tracking, Stampede
- 41:01included, concept are illustrating the conclusion of
- 41:04the Trigon maximum manga which was shown at the panel.
- 41:09This was to emphasize that this new anime will be able to adapt
- 41:13the entire manga, plotline, unlike the 1998 anime, which is
- 41:19made, while the manga was still in progress.
- 41:22That is huge. Because, like I said, I'll be
- 41:24was like, you know, when this first got it, How's everyone's
- 41:27like yay. Finally we get to see the manga
- 41:29adapted then you pull that trailer is like whoa who is this
- 41:32old guy named Roberto? Dang they're not going to do the
- 41:35manga and now it's like no, they are going to do the manga.
- 41:38So I was excited, watch it regardless, but now I'm back on
- 41:43board of the okay. Yeah, yeah, let's see where this
- 41:47goes. Let's see how this goes.
- 41:50I'm excited and they put out a new trailer as well, that looked
- 41:54really cool. So, yeah.
- 41:57So try again, Stampede. It's coming in January.
- 42:01Once again, my birthday month, man.

- 42:32again. Stampede it's coming, I will be
- 42:36talking about it as soon as possible when that episode So
- 42:40drops. Best believe that.
- 42:43Now. Let's see.
- 42:46So moving on from there. My stuff for load I think that's
- 42:52really all I really wanted to touch on newswise because it's
- 42:57been a month. I don't really have any me to
- 43:01try to go back and dig up every single new store whatever, but
- 43:04I'll just say like lots more dope things got confirmed for
- 43:09getting licenses and manga and lots of more anime stuff got Got
- 43:16confirmed that I'm excited about, so it's going to be a
- 43:19great time. I'm excited.
- 43:21We gonna be eating good next year and Beyond Okay, so real
- 43:28quick, I'm going to touch on a couple of movies that I watched.
- 43:33I'm not going to go super deep into spoilers and stuff
- 43:35whatever. But of course, as usual, I will
- 43:38do time steps up there, if you just don't want to hear about
- 43:40the discussion or you want to just move on to the next thing,
- 43:43but I did get to watch a couple of movies during my time away
- 43:48the first of, which is Black Panther to wakanda forever.
- 43:53Now Me and my wife went to go watch this together.
- 43:59We both really enjoyed it at elevator really do time saying
- 44:02it. I'm especially because like this
- 44:04is like the first time we've both gone to see movies
- 44:07together. Maybe like over, maybe like over
- 44:12a year. I don't even know.
- 44:15The last time we both got to go see a movie together, but, but
- 44:18bad, but we'll kind of forever was very dope.
- 44:24I really liked the way that they pay tribute to Chadwick,
- 44:29Boseman. That, was that very beautifully.
- 44:33My wife had the tissues out before they even got, got to the
- 44:37to them, to the memorial, kind of like a Marvel Studios logo
- 44:41thing that they do with just, there was just all his stuff.
- 44:44Whatever she was already teary-eyed.
- 44:47From the beginning from the intro sequence and stuff and all
- 44:51throughout the movie way, are they?
- 44:54Are we just a very heartfelt movie in general?
- 44:57Like you can you can legit tell that because these people, these
- 45:04actors lost a friend, a colleague in real life that they
- 45:10were able to take that those same emotions and feelings
- 45:15translated, well, directly into the film.
- 45:18And so, the way that they kind of wrote that stuff fit very
- 45:21well and it all just paid Out. Awesomely, it was cool.
- 45:27Getting the introduction to, to reread Williams, AKA iron heart
- 45:32that was very dope. I'm still kind of new and like
- 45:36learning about that character. So it's kind of cool again to
- 45:38see our first. Look at her before, she has her
- 45:42own TV series. I think next year, I think it's
- 45:46Miss supposed to be coming name or was very dope.
- 45:50I enjoy his character a lot. Just as whole like, yo, you
- 45:57don't ever put a string on F with you attitude.
- 46:00And then I, all right. I'll try to play dice.
- 46:04I gave you a warning. And yeah, stabbed stabbed me in
- 46:08the back. Now, I'm coming and taking from
- 46:11y'all with a Vengeance. No mercy, no mornings.
- 46:16We just going to roll through and show y'all what we about.
- 46:20Sis so that that something's was all just very dope.
- 46:23But yeah, overall the movie was very dope.
- 46:27I enjoyed with Sheree and this part is mild spoilers bowling,
- 46:31surely went to the ancestral plane.
- 46:35And once again, spoilers kill my anger, was there waiting like to
- 46:43greet her, whatever? Wasn't nobody else when it was
- 46:47him. So that was dope.
- 46:50And am saying that conversation that they had was super amazing.
- 46:55Shout out to who Lord. Shout out to Angela Bassett for
- 47:05man. The power and the emotion in her
- 47:10voice when she was speaking to everybody at the beginning, when
- 47:15they were at the kind of like the un thing where they tried
- 47:17to, but we're basically she was like yo we're trying to find
- 47:21vibranium will show you Mercy. This one time, y'all try to
- 47:25sneak in and steal it from us. Don't do it again.
- 47:30And then even through her demise and what happened with her and
- 47:34stuff all very powerful. I enjoyed the very, the new
- 47:41suits that are. I can't think of her character's
- 47:43name is but but the the actress that plays a Michonne and
- 47:48Walking Dead, those like new blue suits, whatever they got
- 47:51was very dope. Baku was very cool as well.
- 47:57Like I said, overall fantastic movie really, really enjoyed it
- 48:03and stuff so. Yeah and the ending to Thumbs
- 48:08up. So, Great movie.
- 48:13And speaking as shout out to Michael B.
- 48:15Jordan man. Cuz he busy because you got this
- 48:20and he bout to do Creed 3, which shot her too.
- 48:24Jonathan Majors DFW from up here in the DFW area.
- 48:33He Wasn't freaking three trailers before this movie.
- 48:43Cause y'all know he is a speaking of Michael B.
- 48:46Jordan and Creed 3. He's the opponent in Creed 3 or
- 48:51the antagonist, whatever. And Creed 3, he is Kang the
- 48:58Conqueror and Ant-Man Quantum Mania and then he was in the
- 49:04sub. this movie about this, like a airplane pilot or something,
- 49:10whatever and say is there which is very cool just to see him.
- 49:13I hate, he's getting his shine, getting his, his dues and all
- 49:17that stuff. So you have to be working. now,
- 49:25next movie that I saw, Knives Out Glass Onion or Glass Onion a
- 49:36Knives Out mystery. This movie was so freaking fun
- 49:41and fantastic. Now I don't know how many of
- 49:45y'all saw the first knives that movie that came out.
- 49:49I don't know if it's not a couple years ago but that movie
- 49:54was so dope. And so unique, I honestly wasn't
- 49:59sure. They will be over to recapture
- 50:03the same Vibe and feeling As that first movie.
- 50:09But I personally feel like they did.
- 50:11And that they knocked it out of the park.
- 50:14And two of my favorites were Janelle monáe's character and
- 50:20Batista's character, they both were super dope in the movie.
- 50:30Yeah, yeah, just a whole thing was very cool.
- 50:32So, if if you do not know what the knobs out series is, they
- 50:38are basically kind of like, Murder mystery movies, with,
- 50:43with a hint of comedy in it as well because you kind of have
- 50:48this assortment of characters who are connected to each other,
- 50:53through a central character. So like in Knives Out, the first
- 50:57one, The person who died in that movie, everybody all of the
- 51:05characters in it or whatever were various family members and
- 51:10it was thing about, okay, the detective which is a dumb made
- 51:15by Daniel Craig he is trying to piece together.
- 51:18But okay, who are all these people?
- 51:22What is the relationship to the person that died or the other or
- 51:26the focal point of the movie? The Point character might not
- 51:30always be the person that died, but the focal point character of
- 51:33the movie, they bring all these people together and there's our
- 51:36okay who might have had motives to kill the person.
- 51:41And in both of these movies is like mmm, everybody here might
- 51:45have a, might have had a motive to kill this person and stuff so
- 51:51bad that they're very fine movies.
- 51:54So this one came out a month early and in theaters but it
- 51:59will be on Netflix at the end of December.
- 52:03So if you don't regret the theater to see it then you can
- 52:07go you know catching on Netflix and at the end of December so
- 52:11but yeah knocks out Knives Out glass and super dope, super fun
- 52:16movie. Like I said they they surpassed
- 52:18my expectations and supremely knocked it out of the park now.
- 52:27Let's send our head over to whoops.
- 52:32My any list. So we can talk about some anime
- 52:39and some of the things I have been watching now.
- 52:47I'm not going to Deep dive into everything, so I'll just give
- 52:50her just a quick shot of before I go into.
- 52:51Like deep Dives on specific shows DIY, do-it-yourself is
- 52:57still a wholesome Jam of a show to wear.
- 53:01If you are not watching that, then you definitely need to
- 53:05watch it. Slice-of-life just following
- 53:10some wholesome girls coming together for a Fray, dude, for a
- 53:16do-it-yourselfer. For DIY Club at their school and
- 53:19it's just them just like just being friends and just been
- 53:24adorable is the freaking best way I can freaking describe this
- 53:32the show, which I don't have lined up properly.
- 53:35Oh no. So yeah.
- 53:37So DIY do-it-yourself. Check that out.
- 53:41I think we're almost up to the episode 10.
- 53:43So I'm just some Crunchyroll say it so that that It's a fun sweet
- 53:47one in the same vein as that. Another freaking gym that I am
- 53:57so happy to see more people talking about and I just caught
- 54:00up on over the weekend Bochy The Rock has been freaking
- 54:06fantastic. This is the one that follows the
- 54:11this young girl who she dreams of being Basically, making
- 54:17friends and stuff and being in a band.
- 54:19And so she uses her passionate music to learn how to play
- 54:23guitar and then You had to learn how to play guitar.
- 54:30She actually ends up becoming a big personal.
- 54:35You only own their version of YouTube or whatever.
- 54:38And so she has always falls rivers and stuff, whatever.
- 54:41But she has very bad anxiety. So now I'm trying to make
- 54:47friends and stuff in person. It's kind of like a commie can
- 54:49communicate type of situation but it's just these young girls
- 54:54coming together forming this rock band.
- 54:57And it's just very awesome to watch and see.
- 55:01So don't sleep on that. Let me see what else that, I'll
- 55:09just mention real quick. Chainsaw, man has been dope and
- 55:13cool. I don't have too much like an
- 55:15in-depth stuff to say about it. It's just been off the charts
- 55:19and stuff. So and kind of kind of kind of
- 55:22very nice refreshing because I did read the Manga years ago.
- 55:26So a lot of this stuff would have still feels like brand-new
- 55:28to me just because it's, you know, it's been a while since I
- 55:34had a check that out. So so yeah.
- 55:37So that's Spy family still good. My hero is going off, which I am
- 55:44very curious like with the pacing of this.
- 55:48Of where this season is going to go.
- 55:49Cuz we're not even at the halfway point of the Season
- 55:53Year. We're almost there but still,
- 55:56and we've already gotten like, 20-something chapters of dapped
- 56:02it, or whatever so far because they've been doing roughly 3, CH
- 56:063 chapters per episode, and at the paste or going, We might, we
- 56:15might see some some maybe a lady Nagant or some star and stripe.
- 56:23Maybe don't know for sure but just just doing some rough math.
- 56:28It's going to put us in the ballpark and that's gonna be
- 56:30some exciting stuff that's to see to see them animated so and
- 56:34everything that happens between so but yeah this is my my hero
- 56:39has been fired super dope, super good they brought the Crotty
- 56:45back up, top notch. So Still excited for that.
- 56:52I still need to go back and catch back up on Raven of the
- 56:56inner Palace. I'm like a couple episodes
- 56:58behind on that. Blue lock still been really
- 57:04solid. I'm I hadn't been like hundred
- 57:08percent hooked on it. Like I was with a Ric but that
- 57:11is fine. It is still a fun.
- 57:13Enjoyable watch. Um and what else?
- 57:17And I still need to catch him. I need to catch up on Eminence
- 57:19and Shadow now, The stuff, let's say I need to dive into.
- 57:28Okay, first off, I'm going to give a shout out to this because
- 57:31I don't think I was even watching this last time I did a
- 57:33punt most podcast forever. So And shout out to Mike, check
- 57:42for putting the community on to this one but more than a married
- 57:47couple, but not lovers. Was not expecting. to check this
- 57:54one out but I did and it is a Really dope.
- 58:01Basically, the premise of this is that it follows some 30 year
- 58:06or their final year high school students.
- 58:11Who basically, they get. Matched up to basically
- 58:17basically live like a like a marriage situation.
- 58:21Like they live together in a kind of like a like a permanent
- 58:25area but of course guy and girl both have separate rooms and
- 58:29stuff whatever. But they get graded on how they
- 58:33function as a couple as a married, couple of stuff
- 58:36whatever. And if you reach a rank by the
- 58:40end of the year or semester, whatever it is then, Then. you
- 58:45get the option of swapping partners, and so But the
- 58:53interesting thing with that there was like okay you know,
- 58:56both of our main characters, they're both in love with other
- 59:01people but the both the people that they were that they're in
- 59:04love with are matched up as a couple.
- 59:08But it's so the interesting thing with this show is just
- 59:12seeing them, like, figure out this whole romance thing, figure
- 59:17each other out and slowly, you start to see them like, Wonder
- 59:21like, hmm. I'm actually kind of liking this
- 59:24person at first I was just with him just so we can try to, you
- 59:27know. You know, get a rank and so we
- 59:32can both get with who we want to give with uh stuff.
- 59:35But it's just been beautiful watching so far because I've,
- 59:38I've been, I've been watching the dove only source of few
- 59:41episodes behind, and that is fine.
- 59:44I might just continue stick with the dog, but, but it's just been
- 59:47beautiful, just watching them navigating, the situation,
- 59:51whatever. And, yeah, it does have a couple
- 59:54of slightly Saucy scenes, but little bit of Richie, that's
- 1:00:00what it is. Little bit of etching mixed in
- 1:00:02there too. Nothing super over-the-top.
- 1:00:05But, you know, little little little teasing here and there,
- 1:00:09but bad, so that that was been wonderful to watch.
- 1:00:13Like I said, it's called a more than a married couple, but not
- 1:00:17lovers. And that is on Crunchyroll.
- 1:00:22Like I said, a romance romance, comedy drama itchy.
- 1:00:28But yeah, that that that's about Abby.
- 1:00:30Careful show. I'm at first show to watch next.
- 1:00:37Let's dive into. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:00:45Mobile Suit Gundam. The witch from Mercury now.
- 1:00:55I'm pretty sure some point has pockets.
- 1:00:57I talked about how much I loved Gundam iron blood orphans which
- 1:01:02is wild to think about that was 7 years ago if that came out but
- 1:01:09I loved that show so much and hold on.
- 1:01:19Okay. Yeah, love that show so much.
- 1:01:23And so knowing, okay, we're getting a new one, new
- 1:01:27characters and stuff. Whatever man Kurt is going to be
- 1:01:30a female this time and kind of like a school setting yada yada
- 1:01:34yada, lots of new changes, whatever.
- 1:01:36But The things you love about Gundam.
- 1:01:40And these two things I love because granted, I've only ever
- 1:01:42really watched iron blood orphans but The make battles are
- 1:01:47in there. The politics, the drama, the the
- 1:01:51real stuff you love about your max series.
- 1:01:53Like it's the same thing with 86, whatever the politics and
- 1:01:55the drama is what really pulls you along and the characters and
- 1:02:01so far, which from Mercury has delivered on that and I'm
- 1:02:06honestly glad that during my time away I kind of stopped
- 1:02:13watching a lot of stuff. I kind of As many just, you
- 1:02:17know, stuck to a few key shows like chainsaw, man, bleach my
- 1:02:23hero and spot family and block stuff like that, or whatever and
- 1:02:28I kind of down, but it's tough here and there.
- 1:02:29But with your Mercury I had like six episodes to watch and that
- 1:02:36was a fantastic binge-watch getting to see all the stuff
- 1:02:41that I kind of like being here and hints and tips up on the
- 1:02:44timeline and other And stuff, whatever.
- 1:02:47But It's just been super dope to watch and just seeing selectors
- 1:02:56character like start to grow and flourish and things like that.
- 1:03:01And this situation that she's in now because man the the door
- 1:03:10that she had with with Alan, and then and now character situation
- 1:03:15we were feeling that like the Allen that she knew was a
- 1:03:18freaking Kind of like a clone doppelganger of somebody else
- 1:03:25that they were just using to test out.
- 1:03:27This other company is gone dumb that they trying to build that
- 1:03:31whole situation with the whole Birthday Song.
- 1:03:34And that was crazy. There's Salado getting set up at
- 1:03:41this banquet thing, put on the spot for her for her, for her
- 1:03:46mobile suit and then her friend What's it called?
- 1:03:54What is the friend's name? Murren McLaren seeing her come
- 1:04:05through with the plan of like, you know what, I'll start up a
- 1:04:10starter company and take control of both of these companies that
- 1:04:14got revealed to have Gundams and we'll make it work.
- 1:04:17And then send that fall apart by freaking Shattuck, coming
- 1:04:22through being all Sneaky Snake and basically trying to block
- 1:04:27the company from progressing, it's just been Wild But it has
- 1:04:31been super. Super good super, super good to
- 1:04:35watch. What else did you do?
- 1:04:48Bleach bleach has been a banger every freakin week.
- 1:04:57It has been airing. This damn that thousand your
- 1:05:01blood will Arkansas. I honestly cannot believe it
- 1:05:05like This Is It studio Perry? All right.
- 1:05:16Yes, Studio Perry. I came back with a vengeance.
- 1:05:21They went into the hyperbolic Time Chamber for 10 years honing
- 1:05:25their skills because Austin never forget the conversations
- 1:05:28back. When we first saw the trailers
- 1:05:314000 your blood War dark. Everybody was like oh okay ain't
- 1:05:35no way they can keep the quality that's how the whole season.
- 1:05:39This is probably just for the trailer and error, but then it's
- 1:05:41like, okay we saw the first episode, okay, first episode
- 1:05:44budget but now here we are eight episodes in.
- 1:05:48It's like yo they is killing him and like this is another series
- 1:05:54that I rather manga for years ago, but It is just been so wild
- 1:06:03just like like like they're like certain big moments and S3 plot
- 1:06:08points where that I remember, but the finer details of
- 1:06:12everything that happened in between is it feels like
- 1:06:16experience experiencing it for the first time, all over again.
- 1:06:21And I've been loaded because I grew up watching bleach in my
- 1:06:25late teens to early 20s and stuff and then Then now seeing
- 1:06:35where the series is and stuff, man, it is, it's just freaking
- 1:06:39amazing. It is just amazing to be here in
- 1:06:46this current life. Experiencing this series right
- 1:06:51now, man, it is, it is a joy and shadows are the people who who
- 1:06:55have strong for this last decade.
- 1:06:57And every the Margaret at the whatever and are just
- 1:07:00experiencing the stuff for the first time hundred percent man.
- 1:07:03I can't even imagine because I'm shocked and I Loosely know
- 1:07:08what's happening. As I can imagine people who have
- 1:07:11no clue so but yeah. And I think I think that's it
- 1:07:15for the anime and movies. You stuff whatever.
- 1:07:20I can't really think of too much else that I've really been
- 1:07:23checking out. Yeah, so yes.
- 1:07:29All right so let's move on to some manga talk but with that
- 1:07:36I'm actually going to dive into something because And it's let

- 1:09:26number ten, Kaiju number eight. Number nine, do not say mystery,
- 1:09:33which is the only do not say mystery is the only one on this
- 1:09:36entire top 10 that I have not ready, but it is on my list,
- 1:09:40especially because they had their, there's going to be a
- 1:09:46English, release official English print, I should say May
- 1:09:51of next year, but I still might Can I before then?
- 1:09:54Because a man is creating it to the top 10.

- 1:10:31number. For One Piece.
- 1:10:37Number three spy, family made it to the top three like it it had
- 1:10:45cracked the top 10 a couple years ago but The anime coming

- 1:11:17Kaiser? Now, interesting thing for those
- 1:11:21who might be cares, whatever who are watching the video version,
- 1:11:24just to kind of give a little breakdown numbers wise, and I'll
- 1:11:27go back down from one down to the to 10.
- 1:11:30So justifies a number one with 12.2 million, tuck your Avengers
- 1:11:36with 11 million spy, family, with 10.6 Mill.
- 1:11:42One piece with 10.3 meal. Then my hero 5.3 male Kingdom,
- 1:11:483.8 million bluelock. 3.5 ml chainsaw, man, 3.4 million.
- 1:11:54Do not say mystery 3.14 million and cauchy number eight, 3.13.
- 1:12:01So that is a very awesome stacked group of monger. and,
- 1:12:14Somebody was kind enough to also.
- 1:12:19Post the the rest of the top 40. Which is very interesting to see
- 1:12:29some of the placements of the series.
- 1:12:33Now, Go shout out to Gordon Conway for being a number 12
- 1:12:42because the manga for that ended this year aoi, she got a big

- 1:13:12up. Yeah and in the in the one, the
- 1:13:18anime drops for that kaguya Sama Love is War manga that also just
- 1:13:24ended its currently number 25. Glad to see Sakamoto days in
- 1:13:29Number 27, surprise attack on Titan.
- 1:13:32Dropped out of it down there, freaking 28, but I guess the
- 1:13:35demography. The ended.
- 1:13:38Spring of last year because it ended when I first started the
- 1:13:41podcast. So a year and a half over a year
- 1:13:45and a half later and makes sense, that it's starting to die
- 1:13:48down a bit I guess but freaking what you call it a Dana Snyder,
- 1:13:54still in number 11 and that ended in 2012.
- 1:13:58I mean 2020. The manga anywho.
- 1:14:01Let's see what some other highlights dander than medicine
- 1:14:053132. I'm happy even those way down
- 1:14:11here. I'm still happy to see
- 1:14:12Shangri-La Frontier up here, you've noticed an ID number 37,
- 1:14:17still happy to see it. And yeah, so, and And where do
- 1:14:24you see a black Clover? Way down at 40, but it is what
- 1:14:28it is and same thing with charging next done at 41 the
- 1:14:31new, the current manga from the Tokyo Ghoul Creator.
- 1:14:36So but that's it for that stuff. So just like so just little Taps
- 1:14:41just to point out some dopa little information like that.
- 1:14:45So Manga, like I said, I've been reading a lot of manga.
- 1:14:53A lot of those reviews, y'all can just go check out those
- 1:14:56reviews for those. Some big ones I got to talk
- 1:15:04about. Oh, Let's see, let's talk.
- 1:15:09That's always some new ones real quick.
- 1:15:12So the newest one, the new series from the one punch man
- 1:15:19Creator in the mob cycle. 100 Creator Will shout out to mop
- 1:15:22psycho I stabbed and watch the new season year.
- 1:15:25It's the final stage, I still haven't watched it yet.
- 1:15:27I did it sound like it. Major least part of some stuff
- 1:15:32because I was a, I was a guest or somebody's podcast last week
- 1:15:36and then granted, this is on me for not stepping away from the
- 1:15:39conversation or be like, hey, I haven't watched it yet or
- 1:15:42whatever because they've full do spoiled some Major Spoilers for
- 1:15:51that, for that series, whatever. Some like, damn it, but it's
- 1:15:53like, whatever. So I'm stepping up to check out
- 1:15:56ma but versus Has versus is this new series?
- 1:16:02Like I said from the one punch man Creator and the premise of
- 1:16:06it which actually let me see. I'm going to kind of find that
- 1:16:12versus manga if I can find that. Color.
- 1:16:20Spray idea. So that's the color spread for
- 1:16:29versus and basically the the printer setup for this is that
- 1:16:37in this world. There are basically 47 demon
- 1:16:42lures that serve the this great Demon Lord has like 747 demon
- 1:16:48Lords across the land and the humans basically gathered
- 1:16:55together before. 87 strongest heroes in the world and
- 1:17:02basically send them all out to fight these 47 Demon Lord so
- 1:17:08that then they can go and fight the the main Demon Lord, the
- 1:17:15great Demon Lord, or whatever. So, Yeah, this one was
- 1:17:25interesting to say the least I'm in.
- 1:17:28I'm about to spoil this first chapter was the first chapter
- 1:17:30came out. I read it online on certain
- 1:17:34sites and Google it. You'll find it just because how
- 1:17:39can I not hate new series with one punch man creator?
- 1:17:44This is was funny in some parts, whatever the art is fantastic.
- 1:17:47Because the I think, I think the person who does the order on
- 1:17:50this, I think they do, I think they work on is a King of
- 1:17:54Fighters. Let me see if I can find out, C
- 1:18:00versus manga column added to my to my handy list reading.
- 1:18:09I read one chapter, let's see The, the art.
- 1:18:16Let's see. Okay, yeah, yeah.
- 1:18:18The person who is doing art for this.
- 1:18:20Serie 44 verses is the person who does the art for the, for
- 1:18:26the King of Fighters. Series and stuff so bomb.
- 1:18:33But yeah. So the the kind of like just
- 1:18:35unexpected thing with this whatever is there like like you
- 1:18:38know they get riled up, we see all these top heroes or whatever
- 1:18:42and then they go it's like six months into their Journey,
- 1:18:48whatever them trying to make their way to their respective,
- 1:18:51demon Lords, whatever. They're getting updates on the
- 1:18:59on the different Heroes because we're basically following the
- 1:19:02the 11th hero Hollow and he's getting no letters and
- 1:19:08information that like all the number you know whatever hero
- 1:19:13all these great Heroes. Some of them are dying before
- 1:19:17they even get to the to the Demon Lord some of them are just
- 1:19:20getting destroyed by their respective demon Lords and
- 1:19:23stuff. Whatever as So it just brings on
- 1:19:27despair which was the first time I.
- 1:19:29Okay, I did not expect that to be happening in the first
- 1:19:31chapter. Next, unexpected, thing.
- 1:19:33Whatever is there, okay? Now Hollow he and his Squad go
- 1:19:38to face their Demon Lord or whatever and he gets absolutely
- 1:19:42destroyed. Kiss arm, chopped off sort of
- 1:19:46broken. Yeah.
- 1:19:49So then his older brother, who is like this?
- 1:19:51Great, major whatever comes inside.
- 1:19:53Okay, they've been tasked with another Mission.
- 1:19:56While these guys were fine the demo especially to strengthen
- 1:19:58them, they were summoning More Heroes from another world.
- 1:20:05And so wild thing is Person of the word opens up these people
- 1:20:10from like a futuristic high-tech with guns and stuff.
- 1:20:12Whatever. Come through mowing down monster
- 1:20:15rooms are. Oh yeah we saved y'all are here.
- 1:20:20Another another another twist is that is revealed that these
- 1:20:23people are coming here because they need help because there's a
- 1:20:27great threat and their world. So, that was just fun.
- 1:20:30Just, like I said, just just a roller coaster of the okay.
- 1:20:32Here's the setup. And premise or the hour and then
- 1:20:35it's just like one thing after another, oh, they're Heroes
- 1:20:39actually losing. Okay, our main characters, lost
- 1:20:42badly, oh it's brother summer Harrison of the world.
- 1:20:46They need help to so very far. Fun.
- 1:20:50Very fun stuff to read. Oishi.
- 1:20:58I got to touch on a vehicle whatever.
- 1:20:59So Adam a thing real quick, I forgot to touch on some spoilers
- 1:21:04for anime, whatever. We're just going to mix and
- 1:21:05match. To your eternity season 2.
- 1:21:15Our boy food, she has been going through it, man.
- 1:21:21It has been fascinating this season because so much time has
- 1:21:24passed. Like and these first few
- 1:21:26episodes, whatever we've already seen Foo, she lived through like
- 1:21:32Maybe like 200 years of time because he's got to see like
- 1:21:36generations of high essays children and Grand children and
- 1:21:41descendants, or whatever over and over, and over over all
- 1:21:43these years. And now I'm meeting this, this
- 1:21:49Prince forgetting tasty Peach who can freaking see ghosts and
- 1:21:54talk to them. That was a wild reveal but this
- 1:21:58most recent episode that came out this week.
- 1:22:04I think it was what episode was episode 6 this season of to your
- 1:22:11eternity. Man.
- 1:22:17Man man man, poor fool. She just just cuz I he is he
- 1:22:21just doesn't know, you know. He he just does not know.
- 1:22:26How these people are using and try to like manipulate him and
- 1:22:31stuff. Whatever and he hasn't given
- 1:22:34himself up and freaking gets imprisoned.
- 1:22:37And there's giant iron ball thing, whatever and they
- 1:22:41freaking pour molten lava. Into this thing and Foo, she is
- 1:22:50just an agonizing pain because he's Immortal so he can still,
- 1:22:54he still experiencing pain, he's not going to die but it's
- 1:22:56experience pain. And so like It's just this
- 1:23:01constant cycle of Just a Kiss flesh and stuff, just getting
- 1:23:05burnt away. And then it's regenerating and
- 1:23:07then burnt away and regenerate just over and over and over.
- 1:23:11And so, he's in a very bad situation right now, man.
- 1:23:14I feel horrible for for Fushigi, but, but these episodes have
- 1:23:18been like very, very interesting, very fascinating to
- 1:23:22watch show, but yeah, I just had to make sure touch on that real
- 1:23:25quick as I had it on my list. I was like, dang it, I want to
- 1:23:27touch on that. Another series I want to touch
- 1:23:32on really quickly. This is a new series that
- 1:23:38cinchona jump, which I learn. I I've tried to learn my lesson
- 1:23:45and protect my heart because once again, rest in peace two
- 1:23:51Hunters, Guild Red Hood. man, still sad about that series, but
- 1:24:00Another series that I was going to try to wait.
- 1:24:03But the reception from the first chapter alone and the first
- 1:24:09couple chapters I was like, fine.
- 1:24:11I need to dive in and check it out.
- 1:24:13So the series is called the ichinose, family's deadly sins.
- 1:24:19So, a basket follows this whole family who has Amnesia all of
- 1:24:24them, the main character, his sister, his mom, his dad, his
- 1:24:28grandparents, all have amnesia. And so they just have the clues
- 1:24:37of their homes, their individual bedrooms, and then people from
- 1:24:41their jobs and school, or whatever to try to fill them in
- 1:24:43a lie. Okay, who exactly was?
- 1:24:46I was, I got a person without this without that and so it's
- 1:24:49just been just very fascinating and these are suffers only three
- 1:24:53churches out so far but seeing how they tackle Some of this
- 1:25:00this subject matter, because, of course, there's been tons, tons
- 1:25:03of anime and manga TV shows, whatever with the characters
- 1:25:05that have amnesia. But that's the first time I've
- 1:25:07seen the series were like the whole freakin family.
- 1:25:11The whole family got amnesia, which is wild.
- 1:25:16But yeah. But I'm glad I gave it a shot at
- 1:25:19everything like, so I'm here to front the ride.
- 1:25:21Now to see how things go, but so likes, I'm doing spoilers on
- 1:25:27this, whatever. So that first or second chapter,
- 1:25:32whatever, like when everybody got home and then when he went
- 1:25:37in his room and he saw like all this were scribbled on the wall
- 1:25:44and just different something to drink.
- 1:25:46Was like, whoa. Okay, who was I?
- 1:25:49Then the next chapter him going to school.
- 1:25:53And being tricked Man by these kids.
- 1:25:56Now I understand know maybe he might have been a whole kid in
- 1:26:01class or whatever. I don't know.
- 1:26:04But basically bunch of kids like let him to believe I oh yeah you
- 1:26:09were this and you were that. Hey man glad to have you back at
- 1:26:12school, did it uh and then they just supremely turned on him
- 1:26:17dumping food and trash on him making fun of him all this.
- 1:26:23Easy stuff. But chapter 3 our boy said
- 1:26:30enough's enough. I'm not putting up with this
- 1:26:34trash. No more.
- 1:26:35Like I'm not trash your trash because of look how you're
- 1:26:39treating me, you know. But yeah, it did.
- 1:26:47This was just so, so sad, man. Just, they just greeted our boy,
- 1:26:51like good morning sport. Milk to face.
- 1:26:55And yeah, but Let me see because it was a it was a certain panel
- 1:27:05because I could because make sure that he's apologized.
- 1:27:06He's like, hey, I'm sorry, you know, whatever it is, I did
- 1:27:10whatever, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I don't remember. but, What do

- 1:27:20off. He's like, yo, you're the one
- 1:27:22that's disgusting, you're the one that's disgusting.
- 1:27:29And then next day of school, whatever everybody's turning on
- 1:27:34the kid was bullying him and stuff, whatever.
- 1:27:38And then gave him a taste of his own medicine basically and then
- 1:27:43the kids back and like, please please, please, you know, I'm
- 1:27:47Whenever and then the characters think about it.
- 1:27:50He's like, you know what, you know, he can't believe me did
- 1:27:53such awful things to me. He's trash and he just has this,
- 1:27:56like, this like thing snaps on his mind, three, he's like, you
- 1:28:02know what? I'm not going to forgive you bow
- 1:28:05down and lick the floor and the, he comes to the.
- 1:28:09So he's like, whoa, wait, what did I say?
- 1:28:13And the chapter ended there was like, yo.
- 1:28:16He he might have a little bit of dog in them.
- 1:28:19As kids are saying, nowadays, but I always happy reading that
- 1:28:24chapter, and I'm looking forward to Sunday to see to see What
- 1:28:32comes up next? Let me see.
- 1:28:36It was like, one more I'm behind on your jiseok eyes and I

- 1:30:07Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, the big one.
- 1:30:14The biggest one that's been going crazy.
- 1:30:19The during this time, I've been away from podcasting.
- 1:30:23One piece y'all. I'm trying to think. let me see
- 1:30:30it, when was cuz let me see some real quick because I'm trying to
- 1:30:35remember So tasty too would have been to that point of would have
- 1:30:41been maybe the last chapter I read before I want to my Hiatus.
- 1:30:49So, okay. Oh, yo, okay, so so 1064 to what
- 1:30:59is it? 1060.
- 1:31:03Let me see it real quick. Sorry y'all Sting's taking
- 1:31:08forever to load. Okay, so yeah, so 1064 to 1067.
- 1:31:13So I'm going to just kind of just like breeze through these
- 1:31:16real quick just because like it's been a couple I just want
- 1:31:18to make sure I get my my memory, right?
- 1:31:20So one of the first dope thing is though, because last time I
- 1:31:24recorded the law forces, black bear stuff that just started.
- 1:31:28And for the one of the first times in the series, The Cover
- 1:31:32story connected directly with what was happening currently in
- 1:31:36the manga and so we pretty much got that confirmation.
- 1:31:40At that was kuzon AKA Al Ki G that portal to whole cake Island
- 1:31:47kidnapped pudding and now has her on Blackbeard's ship.
- 1:31:52And so man this fight with law versus Blackbeard was in
- 1:31:58freaking saying because I'm looking through these panels for
- 1:32:01the first time in a couple of weeks and yeah, the this chapter
- 1:32:06was yeah, this chapter was hot. Was ridiculous, but it was also
- 1:32:12like a yeah, Bonnie them first, get to the island, finding the
- 1:32:16Beast Harper again, some more back story on Kuma them.
- 1:32:24What we reveal do? We get this chapter and we got,
- 1:32:27we got permits got the confirmation that.
- 1:32:29Yes, dragon and Vega Punk do indeed know each other.
- 1:32:33They have a connection because they they were talking at the
- 1:32:34end of the chapter that test 65. Let's see.
- 1:32:41Okay, this is where they encountered the the seraphim gym
- 1:32:45bag jinbei and oh, sobbing Nami and Sonia them.
- 1:32:50Fought him looked like he used the swim swim through, which is
- 1:32:55singer Pink's fruit or ability. So, got some questions there,
- 1:33:00but that was very cool to see. Got to see more of of Vega
- 1:33:05punks. Satellites is other selves which
- 1:33:12was which is very cool and dope to see.
- 1:33:15Only we get the, we got the reveal of the freaking giant
- 1:33:20robot thing from the ancient Kingdom.
- 1:33:24So, this thing was built over 900 years ago, say that, that
- 1:33:28was that chapter 1066, This was such a freaking humongous
- 1:33:35chapter, this was the will of all horror chapter.
- 1:33:40Man. So getting More information on
- 1:33:46O'Hara. How that all tied into Robins
- 1:33:50flashback and backstory getting Vega parking.
- 1:33:56Dragon back story and how they knew Professor Clover and the
- 1:34:00people on our Harbor and stuff as well.
- 1:34:04It that chapter was just so mind-blowing.
- 1:34:07Lee amazing. cuz we also got Vega Punk's character design
- 1:34:16reveal both in the what he did like 20 22 years ago and then
- 1:34:21what he looks like current day, finding out that song survived
- 1:34:32and that he is in air bath or these was working with some
- 1:34:35Giants from our bath because That moment in the flashback
- 1:34:41where first of all we get to see Professor clover. as a young lad
- 1:34:46on the Seas, you know, just going around causing trouble,
- 1:34:49just trying to try to find a lost text and stuff across the
- 1:34:54world, but The part of the chapter where we see a bunch of
- 1:35:03giants. fishing out the books that the people from our horror
- 1:35:08had dumped into the the lake during the the The Buster call
- 1:35:18and the island on fire and stuff forever.
- 1:35:20Something to the, it's some Giants, from our bath scooping
- 1:35:23out these books, whatever. And then that's where we see the
- 1:35:27dragon and beggar, Punk connection.
- 1:35:30And we get ages, we learned that Baker Punk is 10 years older
- 1:35:35than Dragon. So back during this incident,
- 1:35:38make a punk was 30 was 43 and dragon was 33 and so seeing
- 1:35:43freaking Vega Punk's humongous head Which we later from, which
- 1:35:47we find out in the next chapter 1067, that he ate the brain
- 1:35:52brain through. Now they go punk was always a
- 1:35:54genius. He was always smart this, he
- 1:35:57basically just got the perfect fruit of.
- 1:35:59Okay? Now he can store unlimited data,
- 1:36:03but his brain literally grows as he's learning.
- 1:36:08So he took out his brain and it is housed in a bunker, or
- 1:36:13whatever somewhere. On Egghead Island.
- 1:36:17And he has an antenna thing on his head now and that's how him
- 1:36:21and the other six Vega Punk satellites communicate with
- 1:36:24each. With each.
- 1:36:25Other two are like they sync up once a day and they're able to
- 1:36:30share data information. Memories, yada, yada yada and
- 1:36:34stuff like that. So, but So yes, all this stuff,
- 1:36:38we're back during this time, whatever.
- 1:36:39And we learned that this O'Hara incident is what inspired dragon
- 1:36:4622 to get with coma and even called and found the
- 1:36:53Revolutionary Army, it was founded, within the next year,
- 1:36:57of this O'Hara incident happening, which was insane to
- 1:37:01find that out. And stuff.
- 1:37:06So but they are and of course you're seeing Robins tears of
- 1:37:09joy. When she learned that song is
- 1:37:11alive, of course not sure what his current whereabouts are, but
- 1:37:15We're probably going to find out when we got to our bath and
- 1:37:17stuff, so, but but yeah, and very dope, I just want to show
- 1:37:22just a quick last Vega, Punk's. Actual character design is
- 1:37:31inspired by Vega Punk's design is inspired by this classic
- 1:37:40photo of Albert Einstein with this tongue sticking out and he
- 1:37:45also has the Vega. Punk also has little like apple
- 1:37:49on his head for, like, his, like antenna chingadera.
- 1:37:52That's of course, probably like a Shout out and a montage.
- 1:38:00And the apple of course, might be homage to Isaac Newton and
- 1:38:04the apple and no laws of gravity gravity idea.
- 1:38:08But yeah, he just has such a fun wacky design as like his current
- 1:38:15old man. Look and stuff.
- 1:38:19So, but but yeah, so very, very dope stuff and we know cp0 has
- 1:38:28just made landfall. On Egghead Island and requested
- 1:38:33permission. To dock, Vega Park denied it and
- 1:38:37so, yeah, I think I think it's just about to pop off next
- 1:38:43chapter. Next chapter is highly
- 1:38:44anticipated because this heat we got from these chapters.
- 1:38:49Man was in saying just the fact that we got all this stuff.
- 1:38:54Oh, oh. And of course, at the end of the
- 1:38:58chapter to whatever, Coomer kind of like starts like going crazy
- 1:39:06and like running play like he has somewhere to go.
- 1:39:10And so we don't know if something got triggered because
- 1:39:14of Bonnie's in danger orbit because Vega punks in danger or
- 1:39:19what's going on, but Kuma's moving, and Yeah, things are
- 1:39:27about to get, really insane man. I and, and I'm here for the
- 1:39:31excitement real talk that this has been, this has been such a
- 1:39:36fun and refreshing stretch of chapters pretty much since 10
- 1:39:40ended because, you know, we also had the stuff with Sabo and emu,
- 1:39:44and all this other stuff along the way like Salah versus Black
- 1:39:48Beard. When I started this conversation
- 1:39:50and now they were punks, characters are revealed the
- 1:39:53Revolutionary stuff that all of our hard work.
- 1:39:56My wife. It is a beautiful time to be a
- 1:40:00one-piece Fan, Man. Real talk man.
- 1:40:03But Yeah, so that's it for one piece, um, I think I think yeah,
- 1:40:09that's all. That's all the manga I want to
- 1:40:12talk about today now. it is getting late, but I have to say
- 1:40:21something about this. I need to record my thoughts
- 1:40:24somewhere on this. And of course, of course, God of
- 1:40:35War Ragnarok, y'all. And yes, I'm about to spoil to
- 1:40:40where I am right now in the game.
- 1:40:42I am currently about 32 hours into the game.
- 1:40:46So, if you don't want to hear this, check the time stamps for
- 1:40:49when I do my actual order, but this will be like, probably like
- 1:40:51the main, the last main topic I talked about today, but,
- 1:40:57Gardevoir Ragnarok. Y'all?
- 1:41:00It is been probably years since I've gotten this hooked on the
- 1:41:05game and it's for sure been a long time since I got to put
- 1:41:08this much time into a game. The fact that I've gotten to do
- 1:41:14freaking 30 hours in a game in a couple of weeks or over the
- 1:41:18course of a couple weeks because yeah, the gang came out exactly
- 1:41:23three weeks ago from when I'm recording this song November
- 1:41:279th. So, three weeks ago and the
- 1:41:31crazy thing is is like majority of that time isn't because I've
- 1:41:35been playing every day is literally like there's little
- 1:41:39bits per swear. I've gone literally two or three
- 1:41:41days during the week. Eek not planted at all, but what
- 1:41:47was it like last weekend. Or that first weekend, it came
- 1:41:52out one of these weekend's previously, whatever.
- 1:41:55I got to play freaking 14 hours. Yeah, yeah me me, getting to
- 1:42:01play 14 hours of a game. That's insane in one weekend.
- 1:42:08I should specify across a Saturday and Sunday I played
- 1:42:11about 14 hours which is awesome. Awesome.
- 1:42:15But so this game, of course, it is.
- 1:42:19Now like I said spoilers up until let's just say let's just
- 1:42:26say where I am currently just for context.
- 1:42:37I just finished the Heimdall stuff and if you're playing the
- 1:42:41game you know what that is. I'm I just finished a HomeTown
- 1:42:44stuff and went back and tray is went back home.
- 1:42:52That'll give y'all an idea. If you know, if you're playing
- 1:42:55the game, you will know whatever, if not, you won't
- 1:42:59care. But so It's best.
- 1:43:03It's been a few years since the sense where the last game ended
- 1:43:07off. So I try and says older all this
- 1:43:09tough time has passed, whatever. And I think is it fair amble
- 1:43:15winter thimble winter febrile winter has taken over the realm.
- 1:43:19Everything's cold iced over whatever. and, Petraeus is Wolf
- 1:43:28entered eyes, and basically it's pops off almost immediately
- 1:43:35because freaking Kratos is having dreams about his wife
- 1:43:40Faye. Tell him like yo, Protect our
- 1:43:44son. Things are happening.
- 1:43:48Hey guys, I forgot even before the end of the weekend, you had
- 1:43:50a freaking deal with our Freya or had a fight her early on over
- 1:43:54there but I'm not gonna go every beat by beat whatever.
- 1:43:55But The scene. Freaking Thor and Odin showing
- 1:44:03up at your house. even before Odin got there, when Thor first
- 1:44:11showed up, asked to come in. The shots of Thor and Kratos,
- 1:44:21sitting there across from each other at the table, man.
- 1:44:27That that that was just so freaking cool, man.
- 1:44:31Just throw put the hammer on the table credits.
- 1:44:33Put the X on the table and you know, they're just talking it
- 1:44:38out and then old and shows up. And somebody gave the perfect
- 1:44:44example. Somebody pretty somebody pretty
- 1:44:46much said the way old and kind of Moves In God of War, it makes
- 1:44:52it feel kind of like a like a, like a mafia or or like like a
- 1:45:00Crime Boss, feeling whatever. Okay.
- 1:45:10But yeah, but the whole meeting was super, do just a tension in
- 1:45:13the air from from them talking, here it is.
- 1:45:23Look at that shot, man. Look at that shot.
- 1:45:31That was so dope. But then basically, when I do
- 1:45:33things like yo man, a I don't want to trouble man.
- 1:45:37We ain't here to beef, you know. We feel like we got off on the
- 1:45:40wrong foot. Yes, you killed through her
- 1:45:42son's but they were kind of useless and we just call it
- 1:45:45self-defense. Now hey.
- 1:45:49You were just chill, retired. God of war, and your cab and
- 1:45:53kick your feet up live with your son.
- 1:45:56That's fine, I'm gonna come beef with you.
- 1:45:59You don't be for me as long as your son stops looking for tear
- 1:46:03and we're good. And then create a sense of
- 1:46:06saying, no. And I loved how they started off
- 1:46:09this fight because all this leaving out, he's telling
- 1:46:14stories, like don't take all day.
- 1:46:18And Thor stands up stretching his conch.
- 1:46:21I've been waiting for this. You just hear the snap.
- 1:46:26Kratos, flying through the roof hammer on throat and then, and
- 1:46:31then throw jumps up and he's, like, fly through the air with
- 1:46:35them, whatever. And then you start fighting
- 1:46:38super dope. Awesome, fun fights.
- 1:46:42One of the coolest fake-outs I have ever seen in gaming,
- 1:46:46period, and media period, For knocks you out.
- 1:46:51You think it's just normal. Okay.
- 1:46:53You lost a tussle. All right you know get to the
- 1:46:59game over screen. You're about to restart or
- 1:47:01whatever. you hear Thor's voice saying, oh no, I say when we're
- 1:47:08done and he shocks you back awake and you guys are fighting
- 1:47:14That issue is super fireman, super fire but yeah that moment
- 1:47:22and then just the whole journey that y'all go on the Companions
- 1:47:29and stuff whatever because of course you know you find tear
- 1:47:33you end up finding frere. Freya y'all come to an
- 1:47:38agreement. Getting to play as at Reyes,
- 1:47:46which isn't too surprising because this kind of reminds me
- 1:47:50in the center, similar lineage in a way of kind of like the,
- 1:47:53The Tell-Tale. Walk into a mirror wasn't in the
- 1:47:54same game but the lineage of games, you know, the first time
- 1:47:58you was playing as the father figure, the then you play as the
- 1:48:02dart in the later games, Last of Us, spoilers, slight spoilers
- 1:48:07for Last of Us One, your plan is Joe through.
- 1:48:11Most of the gain in. This is a situation where Joe
- 1:48:13gets hurt and your plan is La for a little bit.
- 1:48:16And then, of course, Last of Us to your plan is only Ellie.
- 1:48:21Well, At rest goes on a little journey or whatever you're
- 1:48:27playing as at Reyes and that is very dope that they're like
- 1:48:30throughout the game. You play as a trace and certain
- 1:48:33times you have different companions with him.
- 1:48:36I loved, I love to win when odintext test you and Thor to go
- 1:48:44on a mission. So it's like very dope that
- 1:48:46you're on a mission and you're fighting a fight with Thor as
- 1:48:50your companion, but Thor is really just, they're just His
- 1:48:54own thing whatever. Just kind of like whatever.
- 1:48:56Hey you like you got it or whatever and you know so that
- 1:49:00that how that was dope. Oh, Thor or at Reyes, meeting
- 1:49:12were surname. Agra Agra Botta, I believe is
- 1:49:19how you pronounce the name. Angry Berta.
- 1:49:25Her. Played by the lair de Leon
- 1:49:30Hayes, talented, young, black queen but that whole section
- 1:49:38where you're in the iron Woods which is like this like
- 1:49:45legendary around for the Giants, whatever.
- 1:49:48And you find out that they're sort of like or thing that
- 1:49:52Travis had at the beginning of the game, whatever those things
- 1:49:56we can contain all the Souls of all the Giants that you found
- 1:50:00all the bodies of the Giants, whatever thing, at the end of
- 1:50:02the last game, well, they all kind of, quote-unquote escaped
- 1:50:07and put all their souls into these gems for hey someday,
- 1:50:11they'll get to come back or whatever.
- 1:50:13Well, Wow, that section was really long.
- 1:50:18I didn't expect freaking be playing as a trash like a couple
- 1:50:21of hours straight. I just thought below know, maybe
- 1:50:24do a mission, whatever me like an hour and then we'll go back
- 1:50:26to creditors. Nope, playing maybe multiple
- 1:50:29hours as a trash, whatever. But it was cool going around
- 1:50:33with her and stuff. I loved when we had to go to her
- 1:50:37grandmother's house. Angry giant black grandma.
- 1:50:44That holds Secrets a super dog. That was a super fun boss fight.
- 1:50:48Finding this. This older Giants lady or
- 1:50:54whatever. So that, that whole section was
- 1:50:56dope, putting the soul of the giants into this freaking snake
- 1:51:01that you found because you found out that the grandma as pretty,
- 1:51:05like her grief for from anger, boaters parents and all the
- 1:51:08other Giants. Whatever, she's been like taking
- 1:51:11the souls out of the different animals in that world.
- 1:51:15It's like their bodies are still there, whatever.
- 1:51:17But they're just like, lifeless husk, who can't do anything,
- 1:51:20whatever. So he puts the soul, into the
- 1:51:23snake or whatever and they're super dope doing that, then at
- 1:51:29Reyes going to Asgard. And let me show you all those.
- 1:51:34Ya'll watching the video man. Look at this.
- 1:51:37Freakin screenshot This is a freaking video game and like,
- 1:51:43like if somebody glass that from a distance or whatever, this
- 1:51:48looks freaking like these backgrounds and stuff.
- 1:51:50Look photo, realistic and even trailers in some spots look
- 1:51:57realistic whatever. But like these shots man these
- 1:52:00environments, these locations are so Lush and very that stuff
- 1:52:04whatever. Um I enjoy going to the site
- 1:52:06total freya's kind of like jungle Ram or whatever.
- 1:52:09Oh I hate all the freaking plant trying to kill.
- 1:52:11You don't like that part but but yeah, man, it was just this game
- 1:52:17has just been so fun and so dope.
- 1:52:19I'm like I said, just saying a tray is going to sort of Journey
- 1:52:23having to climb that giant water.
- 1:52:25Even get into Asgard or super crazy.
- 1:52:31I loved all the times you when you're walking around with old
- 1:52:34and it's kind of like giving you a tour of Asgard.
- 1:52:37And as y'all are having to tell a Areas it is Jess.
- 1:52:42You just stand there just like a whirlwind of crows around y'all
- 1:52:46and then teleport child to the next spot or whatever.
- 1:52:49That is just super dope. It was cool getting to meet
- 1:52:54Thor's wife thorisdottir, all this stuff and just just kind of
- 1:53:00one of those things again of like, Kids having their
- 1:53:04perception of people, whatever. Because I want to try just
- 1:53:06telling her like, all this awful stuff that her grandfather Odin
- 1:53:10did, and she just like, nah, great.
- 1:53:12Probably do that, or whatever, did it at that and stuff.
- 1:53:15So she's kind of in denial about it.
- 1:53:17Whatever. But, you know, it is what it is.
- 1:53:20But, but yeah, so that stuff is cool.
- 1:53:23Heimdall was ridiculous like Fighting against him, whatever.
- 1:53:31And just shout, shout out to whoever on the team is Sony,
- 1:53:35Santa Monica who had to program, an animated character, whatever,
- 1:53:40it's where it's like no matter how you try to attack him or
- 1:53:43whatever here, just just automatically just dodging
- 1:53:48everything. It was, it just looks so, so
- 1:53:52cool. Whatever.
- 1:53:53And speaking of fighting him, I'm skipping ahead several hour
- 1:53:57just because I hot as I can't forget him.
- 1:53:59Every little detail on the way somewhere in there.
- 1:54:02Are tray, is the goofed up and released the hellhound and that
- 1:54:09mutt that sucker was like, it's freaking causing tears through
- 1:54:13all the different Realms and stuff.
- 1:54:15And like I mentioned earlier you freaking from credits for Freya.
- 1:54:19They continue agreement that you forget have Freya as your
- 1:54:21companion for a while which is weird because I'm like, yo, you
- 1:54:25just trying to kill me a few hours ago.
- 1:54:27Now we're here and we find Freya His brother and all these
- 1:54:32different things. We can go back to the, to the
- 1:54:33rim of the elves. And now we're dealing with the,
- 1:54:37the Dark Elves, and the light elves, and just so good, but,
- 1:54:44Current situation that I'm mad or whatever.
- 1:54:46Man, I freakin love this. Drop near spear.
- 1:54:54This spear is ridiculous, and it is freaking dope, dope dope.
- 1:54:59Go to the dope. Let me see.
- 1:55:07But it the whole journey to getting this freaking this new
- 1:55:11weapon. So I'm up.
- 1:55:12I'm up here. I was like it. 28 hours into the
- 1:55:18game. And, of course, at the time, I
- 1:55:22trash is still missing you go with the, with the other doors
- 1:55:28or one of the doors to meet this this master forger.
- 1:55:33And I wish I had a picture of her but she's basically like the
- 1:55:35kind of like mermaid looking thing.
- 1:55:37You just, you saw on that first like, big tree that they did
- 1:55:40earlier in the year and Man, speaking of stuff from the
- 1:55:46tournament, the giant like jellyfish looking things in the
- 1:55:48desert, just it's just so many awesome moments, whatever, but
- 1:55:52anywho. So you get on this horse
- 1:55:54wherever that kind of bet it's like a horse or whatever takes
- 1:55:58you for getting under water and stuff.
- 1:56:01Actually, no, I'm lying. This is from when you go to meet
- 1:56:04the three face of this room, I'm getting story stuff mixed up.
- 1:56:11But if you so this was the forest thing, whatever.
- 1:56:15So basically the elves have this ring, that they start thing from
- 1:56:22Odin when I did some research on over there ever, but this ring
- 1:56:26has the ability to multiply well, they use that.
- 1:56:32To forge it into this spear that can multiply and this spear is
- 1:56:38freaking amazing. I wish I had some clips ready to
- 1:56:43share whatever, but I don't Sally, but But yeah, it's just
- 1:56:51super dumb that it was like, it's like, hey, you're almost 30
- 1:56:53hours into the game. Here's a new weapon but it makes
- 1:56:56sense though because there are certain like spots and areas
- 1:56:59where that you can reach or certain things in my OK.
- 1:57:02It looks like this. It looks like I need to stop of
- 1:57:04like, weapon or item or something ready to get through
- 1:57:07this barrier, or to do this thing, whatever.
- 1:57:09And it was a spirit, but I loved it, man.
- 1:57:12Cuz cuz you can throw it out. Basically every time you throw
- 1:57:16it over, a new one, just automatically just response
- 1:57:19because you were the ring on your finger.
- 1:57:20Anger. And so every time you throw one,
- 1:57:23it just forms another one in your hand.
- 1:57:28And so you can send out six of them at a time.
- 1:57:31And then you can, like, stab your stab, your, the spirits of
- 1:57:34the ground and they'll detonate them wherever there, if you
- 1:57:38throw it to enemies or into stuff in the environment, or
- 1:57:40whatever staff. Stabbed the spear it detonates,
- 1:57:45almost ever. So super dope, super fun weapon
- 1:57:50and stuff to used by butts and speaking of which using that
- 1:57:55weapon and the boss fight against Jaime, So, I guess I'd
- 1:57:58the way he moving this device, like having that Spirit first,
- 1:58:02you like you just poke it. He just can't touch me, just
- 1:58:07dodging, super wild, super fun but eventually we take them out
- 1:58:14and stuff. Whatever sober.
- 1:58:17But yeah, man, who in general, this game has been amazing.
- 1:58:21Yeah, this is the freaking wolf. He let loose And freaking
- 1:58:28Kratos, pseudo kind of killed it, which is sad.
- 1:58:35But at Reyes was actually able to infuse the Soul and Spirit of
- 1:58:42his wolf fenrir that had died because they didn't know the
- 1:58:45time, but like his soul had wanted to get trashed his blade
- 1:58:50because because because when Treasures was with anger Boulder
- 1:58:53and iron Woods, she's kind of like I sent something.
- 1:58:57I'm from your knife or whatever and so he was able to use it to
- 1:59:01infuse the sole of his Wharf into this giant wolf.
- 1:59:05So now they got a giant wolf bear but overall this game has
- 1:59:10been fantastic. This I was super dope to with
- 1:59:16the, the two wolves that chase the Moon and the Sun and stuff
- 1:59:20for herself. And that's it is why like I
- 1:59:22said, band, 30 hours until game and still getting New Missions,
- 1:59:28new weapons, new abilities and stuff for the canals, okay?
- 1:59:33Now, when you find these little Shrine things, you can activate
- 1:59:36it to change. The day-night cycle for a
- 1:59:38certain puzzles, are certain things in the world is like
- 1:59:42that. The whole other can of worms but
- 1:59:45all in all so far, this game has been fantastic.
- 1:59:49It's been beautiful seeing both Kratos in at Reyes learning and
- 1:59:53growing. And bonding you know, with each
- 1:59:59other, you know, just really taking time to just, you know.
- 2:00:04Yeah, there's been some arguments, there's been some for
- 2:00:06stretches along along the way but as somebody who is a parent
- 2:00:10myself, I deeply connect and relate to the situation and
- 2:00:14stuff, you know, the parent having to put trust in faith
- 2:00:20into their child, to be able to go and do stuff on their own and
- 2:00:24then, but then also the child, Concerned for the parents and
- 2:00:28stuff for them, especially in the situation.
- 2:00:30But, but yeah, but overall I'm freaking loving loving, loving,
- 2:00:35loving God, of War Ragnarok. And like I said, like, I still
- 2:00:40got, still got a lot of stuff to go through in the game. but, I'm
- 2:00:49a keyboard and whatever because I want to finish this game
- 2:00:53really bad because I, I try to go back to Horizon, whatever so
- 2:00:57many times, but it's just like, you know, I played a little bit
- 2:01:01here, a little bit there, whatever, but it's just not for
- 2:01:03the hook. You mean, I kind of wish I would
- 2:01:05have liked just been able to stick with it back when it came
- 2:01:08out back in freaking February, but it is what it is, you know,
- 2:01:13but we gotta were Ragnarok. Freaking love it and I think
- 2:01:20that might do it. Let me think.
- 2:01:25Yeah, I think that's it. But yeah, so we've been going
- 2:01:31for a while. So let's go ahead and wrap
- 2:01:33things up. So as always, thank you so much
