  What's up y'all? And welcome back to Danny's to
• 0:09
  talk. I'm your host Robert.
• 0:10
  And today we are here to talk about.
• 0:13
  Uncle From Another World, my thoughts up, the reading volumes
• 0:17
  1 & 2 now This series is another example of finding those
• 0:28
  unexpected. Awesome hidden gems.
• 0:33
  So a little bit of quick back story about the series as a
• 0:36
  whole. So let's see.
• 0:39
  So the manga, the name are here is super long and I'm probably
• 0:43
  about to butcher it, but it says the Arthur / Creator is hotah.
• 0:48
  No, dowshen deru. And it's a published by Yen.
• 0:55
  Press, that's like I got the first two volumes.
• 1:00
  Um the series is still ongoing as been going since June of 2018
• 1:06
  and there are currently four volumes at an English with the
• 1:09
  fifth volume coming out this summer in July, as well as a
• 1:14
  anime is going to be stored in is going to be coming for in
• 1:17
  July as well for the summer, 2022, anime season, and that is
• 1:22
  how I came across this. So somehow I don't even know how
• 1:27
  I was looking at something on Twitter, and Then I saw
• 1:31
  something about a Isa Chi uncle or because that's another name
• 1:38
  that is known by is a Sakai uncle or Uncle from another
• 1:41
  world. And so I watched the trailer,
• 1:43
  the trailer was a little bit confusing.
• 1:45
  I was I was like but it but it piqued my interest and then I
• 1:48
  read the synopsis for and I was like okay you gotta you gotta
• 1:52
  get this. So What is up with this series?
• 1:56
  So I know people in F, like I said, this are too much talk
• 2:00
  about a new Isa cat series that I've read or watched.
• 2:03
  But this is truly one of the most unique and funny takes on
• 2:12
  the genre that I have encountered, thus far, so the
• 2:17
  uncle of the series, basically, instead of your typical East
• 2:23
  Coast story where, He gets hit by truck and dies and gets
• 2:27
  reincarnated when he was 17. He got hit by a truck but he
• 2:31
  ended up in a coma for 17 years. So he got.
• 2:36
  So he wanted to the comma and the year 2000 and that he woke
• 2:40
  up in the year 2017. And so this is a very wild take
• 2:49
  to wear during the 17 years while he was in a coma.
• 2:53
  He got a saccade to to the world.
• 2:54
  So he went to this whole other world had an adventure for 17
• 2:58
  years and then comes back. What about the coma?
• 3:01
  And now he's in his mid-30s and all the person that has done a
• 3:05
  great him as his nephew and so his nephew is basically kind of
• 3:09
  like just catching him up on everything that has been going
• 3:13
  on over the years while throughout the story.
• 3:17
  The uncle is also telling his nephew and later on his nephew
• 3:23
  has a friend that Joins the the series or whatever and it's
• 3:29
  telling them his stories of what he went through in the other
• 3:33
  world. And it is just so funny that
• 3:36
  like there are certain tropes and stuff that we know nowadays
• 3:41
  that he doesn't know anything about like like like a tsundere
• 3:44
  character. So he's describing this girl
• 3:46
  that keeps on following him around or whatever everywhere,
• 3:49
  but because of when he went, he went to the coming to year 2000
• 3:53
  and the term soon. DeRay didn't really become a
• 3:55
  thing into the year 2000 for four years after he had already
• 3:58
  been sent to this other world but a couple other really dope
• 4:03
  things about this series is 1 and this is probably like one of
• 4:08
  the things that caught my attention first is that the
• 4:11
  uncle is obsessed with Sega and all that stuff from back in the
• 4:17
  day in the 90s or whatever. And so I love how obviously for
• 4:23
  kind of like, joking. Nice copyright reasons, they
• 4:26
  talk about all types of gaming history, Classic sega's series
• 4:30
  or whatever. But they were always like
• 4:33
  blackout like one of the letters or whatever.
• 4:34
  But you can clearly tell that the look at the talking about
• 4:37
  Golden Axe, and Sonic and different stuff like that.
• 4:43
  But when he wakes up one of the first things he's concerned
• 4:46
  about is he's like, nephew, what, what happened to the to
• 4:49
  the console, world's, to the, to the console Wars?
• 4:53
  You know what? What is the state of Sagar?
• 4:55
  And then the nephews have to break the news to his uncle Li,
• 4:58
  hey, unfortunately, you know, it's primarily, you know, Sony
• 5:02
  and Nintendo as far as like what his uncle knew from back then,
• 5:05
  as well as this new console called Xbox that came along in
• 5:10
  the years since it says, uncle is Uncle is heartbroken that
• 5:14
  Sega no longer has a console but that is just like one of like
• 5:19
  the first Hooks and then the second big hook that got me
• 5:23
  aside from the fact, Okay, you got this, this, this
• 5:27
  mid-thirties, Uncle coming back from a coma of being a saccade,
• 5:31
  but when he came back, he also kept all of his abilities that
• 5:36
  he had. While he got why he was
• 5:38
  Adventure in this other world. So he is opening up pocket,
• 5:42
  dimensions for his inventory. Cycle job, we've all if we say
• 5:46
  any type of Izakaya or fantasy series, we've seen it before
• 5:49
  where characters have four, they just like, like just like
• 5:52
  sticking their hand into the void.
• 5:54
  It did not pull it out, inventory and stuff.
• 5:56
  Whatever he is doing that in the real world.
• 5:59
  He's able to fly levitate doors, doing magic, all types of stuff
• 6:04
  memory wipe techniques, all this stuff.
• 6:07
  And so it is just a super fun just series overall and I am
• 6:15
  trying to hold back from just go ahead and just like buying the
• 6:18
  next few volumes and reading because I really do want to see
• 6:22
  like how this animal is going to turn around but you Maybe if I
• 6:24
  get some extra coins. So now I might maybe go ahead
• 6:28
  and pick up the next volume or so, but this has truly been just
• 6:33
  a fun read. And like I said, just something
• 6:36
  different because, because, you know, because, well, granted
• 6:40
  majority of izakayas that I've that I'm aware of, you know,
• 6:43
  they're still ongoing Series so that I can be done for a while.
• 6:49
  Who knows maybe at the end of those, those characters do come
• 6:51
  back actually. No, because never mind because a
• 6:53
  lot of These archives the characters are dead.
• 6:55
  So scratch that thought I was about to say, but the fact that
• 6:59
  he was just in a coma winning this whole Grand Adventure for
• 7:02
  17 years and they came back and brought back all those abilities
• 7:06
  that stuff. It's just so funny.
• 7:08
  And other funny thing too is there like because of like his
• 7:12
  appearance a lot of people in this.
• 7:18
  Yeah, there's the uncle right there.
• 7:20
  A lot of people in this world. See his face as being hideous.
• 7:27
  So are its everywhere he goes. Most people think that he's like
• 7:29
  a orch or something or whatever and they just like instantly
• 7:32
  start attacking him being like like you hideous monster get out
• 7:36
  of here. But yeah it like I said over our
• 7:39
  likes it is just such a freakin fun read and one that I had to
• 7:45
  make sure I bought and put on lingerie turns to check out
• 7:47
  whether y'all gon pick up the manga or if y'all look forward
• 7:51
  to the anime that is coming out later this summer.
• 7:55
  Just now, I will be talking about this series, especially
• 8:00
  once like I said once the, the anime drops.
• 8:04
  But yeah, and I love on the back.
• 8:07
  It is just the uncle and nephew just sitting there together
• 8:11
  playing games and stuff. And yeah, it is just so
• 8:16
  interesting. Like, suggest just seeing my
• 8:19
  character has been gone for 17 years especially during from the
• 8:22
  year 2000 to 2017, just thinking about life.
• 8:24
  How much of the world and technology and stuff changed
• 8:27
  since then he had to introduce like, what smartphones as what
• 8:31
  YouTube is because he small spoiler but he eventually
• 8:36
  becomes a YouTuber and stuff whatever.
• 8:41
  As so it is just, you know, him learning how to deal with hate
• 8:46
  comments and stuff and or you know, or comments, people love
• 8:51
  what he's doing and people thinking, like when he's showing
• 8:53
  off Magic on his Each channel that you know, people are being
• 8:57
  like, man, that is so fake. I can see where you edit it in
• 9:00
  and yada yada yada and stuff, and but overall likes it is
• 9:04
  just, it is just a joyous read and I hope that the anime, does
• 9:11
  it justice? Because like I said, it is a bit
• 9:15
  unique, but but definitely something that I appreciate and
• 9:19
  and the Art of it is pretty solid, you know, but but you
• 9:22
  know, definition little bit different than the normal. but,
• 9:27
  Yeah, if you are a fan, even a little bit of Seasick eyes, if
• 9:32
  you are a lover of old-school gaming especially know like with
• 9:38
  the Sega stuff and the 90s then give this series a shot, you
• 9:43
  know, even if you just pick up, just one volume.
• 9:46
  I just went and just got to just a, you know, because I'm like
• 9:49
  because most of the time with series that are already several
• 9:52
  volumes. And I've wanted I wanted to try
• 9:55
  to at least like give it a Four volumes, you know, to before I
• 9:59
  like form an opinion on it, but anywho I'm just rubbing at this
• 10:03
  point Uncle From Another World AKA Isa Chi Uncle AKA Sakai.
• 10:10
  Oh gee, sine go check it out from Yen, press at your local
• 10:17
  bookstore or online, wherever you get your manga at.
• 10:20
