  Speaker 1: This is an Unspoiled Network podcast. This is spoil Me
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: covering the one piece live action Netflix series Season two,
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: episode six, Nammy Dearest Dearest. In this episode, Nammy is
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: sick as hell and Lufy is going to climb a
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: mountain with her on his back. Meanwhile everybody else just
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: sits and stews. Welcome to spoil Me, Welcome to the
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: show everyone. I am Natasha. Thank you very much to
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: Bernadette and Florian for commissioning this episode. I am really
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: really sad to be reminded that there are only eight
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: episodes of the show. I don't know why I had
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: it in my head that there were ten, and so
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: this means that there's only two remaining, and I'm very
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: very much mad about it. I'm very mad about it.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: What can you do? So? Oh my god, Florian. There's
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: times where I'm just like, can anybody ever actually come
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: new into Unspoiled shows? Because we overdo it on inside
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: chokes with other like, there's so many shows that I cover.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: Florian's in the chat saying this episode, the straw Hats
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: have to shag ass and find a doctor, which is
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: a reference to something that Rashawn and I got very
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: preoccupied by on a recent Supernatural episode, because shagass is
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: not a thing that we have ever heard. I don't.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: I just don't. I don't care for it. So this
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: intro for this episode I should have done as Welcome
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: to season two, episode six, aka the episode where we
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: find out that Lufy has abs you, guys. I am
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: deeply uncomfortable with being the age that I am at
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: because when I'm watching TV, I forget that I'm forty
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: one and I should not be looking any sort of
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: way at these young men. It's gross, but I forget
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: that I'm old. So I have a moment of reacting
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: like I'm twenty five, and then I'm just like, oh girl,
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: oh that is not Austin says the actor said he
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: wanted to work out Kauzzorro and Sonji's actors got ripped.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: I would go so far as to say that Lufy
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: has outdone them both. I mean, look, it's not really
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: a particular look that I even like. It's more that,
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: like I can acknowledge that was a lot of work
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: and it was not something I was expecting. I was thinking,
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: you know, Lufi is animated when he doesn't have a
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: shirt on is actually being pretty muscular. So this isn't
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: outside of the realm of what's you know, character wise
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: meant like pretty much accurate, I feel, but it's just
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: not something that has ever mattered to me. And to
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: be real, like, I don't remember how many times we've
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: seen Soanji with his shirt off. I'm pretty sure we
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: can all agree canonically, Zora, we all know is jack
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: as hell Sanji sceptis being jacked, but it's not something
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: that's important. Lufy is is just sort of it's not
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: at all a consideration. And there was a really great
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: reel that popped up in my feed, and it's him
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: and Taz watching TV. They're eating a bunch of snacks.
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: The camera turns and this scene has just started, and
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: the camera turns back and they've dropped all their snacks
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: and they're doing sit ups and lifting weights and it's
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: you know, this is the thing where it's just like,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: on the one hand, I do appreciate in a weird
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: way that there is an expectation that is unfair being
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: imposed on men when it's for so long been on
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: women only, So that y'all can get a feeling of
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: what it's like on the other hand, I don't want
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: unrealistic expectations put on any I don't want this for us,
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: And as it seems that we're going down a path
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: of even thinner being optimal, I'm a scared. I'm a
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: scared of the direction that we are heading. But I
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: will acknowledge that there is something that I like about
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: getting to see actors outside of the sphere of whatever
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: property they were in, and that is actors being very
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: vocal about how impossible to maintain these physiques are. And
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: you can even see when they're like on the interview
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: circuit that they themselves no longer even look like that,
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: because now we are chilled out and beginning to eat
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: a little bit more normally, we're beginning to hydrate, you know.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: So anyway, all of this to say, I was taken aback.
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: I've watched this episode twice, and the second time was
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: with my husband and I was just like, I wonder
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: how he's going to react to this, and Lufy runs
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: in and he just goes Jesus, and then a second
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: later he's fucking ripped. This episode is so sad, though
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: like watching it the second time around, I was I
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: enjoyed it both times but it's a bummer to see.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: Mommy's acting as a sick person is great. She's very
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: convincing when she opens her eyes and Sanji is right
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: there offering her some consumme he made Dinah consumme and
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: she thinks that it's only it's the next morning, and
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: he has to tell her that was four days ago.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: Oh y'all, and he gets these tears in his eyes
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: as he said it, Like this is one of those
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: moments where I'm like, has bro had to deal with
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: this before? Has the actor? When we now know from
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: where I'm at in the anime that young Sonji had
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: to deal with watching his mother waste away. That kind
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: of brings an element to this as well of me
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: being like, is this triggering for him? You know, he
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: was a little boy and he saw his mother dying
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: and it was this slow, agonizing thing, and as a character,
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: I could see Sonji really kind of panicking when facing this.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: But there's also me wondering as the actor, is he
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: drawing on something because it felt so real this moment
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: of like it is painful to me to have to
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: tell you what's going on because you don't know, and
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: the fact that you don't know. Is really scary to
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: me because that indicates how bad it is. And he
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: tells her we're getting you help, but it's very obvious
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: that like that's just words right now. There's no plan,
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: we don't have an island in mind. We don't know
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: what even to ask for, you know. And Nammy says
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: something to him like thank you for being worried about me,
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: and he says, I'm always worried about you, and he smiles,
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: but as soon as she closes her eyes, that smile
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: just falls away and he just looks like panicked, and
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: nam trying to sit up because she's just convinced she's
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: fine and then looking down and seeing the black lines
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: going down her arm and realizing like oh shit, yeah, yeah.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: So we go out onto the deck and we have
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: the slow pan Sanji's in an overcoat, oos Up's in
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: a fur coat and blowing on his hands and huddled up,
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: and then we've got Zorro shirtless, just standing there looking
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: cold as hell, by the way, like the skin is
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: all goose prickly, like you can tell he's cold, and
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: Usup is just like you know, everybody else is wearing
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: a shirt and he's finally like fine, And it's interesting
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: to me how Oosup and Zoro have like a couple
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: moments this episode, this and then later on at the bar,
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: and I am honestly not remembering if they have this
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: sort of like relationship in the anime where they they
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: butt heads. It's not as as dramatic as it is
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: with Sanji, who they're like there's a direct competition between
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: the two of them because they're both fighters. It's a
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: much more oos Up sort of calling out Zoro's like
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: machismo almost. I don't know, but I just didn't remember
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: the dynamic being like this between them, And I'm wondering
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: if this is more for the show or if I'm
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: forgetting things. I know that, you know, there are some
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: eventual story beats where they are definitely at odds with
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: each other. But anyway, we, you know, everybody is just
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: kind of somber and trying to there. Nobody wants to
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: talk about Nami and what's going on with her. And
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: we finally have the moment where they spot this island
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: and they have to decide if they're gonna go there,
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: and like Vivi is put on the spot because she
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: has to she wants to get home as quickly as
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: she can, and they have their you know, they have
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: their crewmate who is in danger, and do you have
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: time for us to stop off at this island and
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: you know, find out if there is somebody there who
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: can help us. And she says, I do need to
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: get home as soon as possible. That is why we
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: are going to stop at this island and get her,
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: or stop at the first island we find and get
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: her help. They haven't even spotted the island yet when
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: they are having this conversation. I forgot. And it's just
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: funny because this moment of her like having to stop
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: and think about it is like, if you had any
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: other response, I don't know if we would be able
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: to keep you on this ship if you were like, look,
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: I know that she's sick and like probably gonna die,
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: but I really need to get home. So all of
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: you that have only known me like two days, I'm
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: going to need you to prioritize me over her. Thank you.
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: And I just I don't want to talk about Woppole. Okay,
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: that's what's happening right now. I'm actively avoiding talking about him.
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: I hate him so much. I hate him in the anime.
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: I hate him here it's different than Mister three because
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: in the anime, he has the exact set, like they're
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: doing the same thing as they did with Mister three,
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: where they're taking the precise, exact energy of this villain
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: and bringing it to live action. So it's identical for
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: me the experience. But mister three there's a sort of
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: weird fascination too, and he has like an angle, you know,
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: this bizarre power and this weird preoccupy with art. There
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: is something that is both sickening but also kind of riveting.
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: Whoopole is absolutely, in my opinion, what if Donald Trump
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: were truly unleashed, if the inner version of him were
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: let out, Because Bro, we're talking about our alleged president
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: is a giant baby and very cruel and very shortsighted,
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: entitled like all the things, and there is just that
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: endless hunger. You know. That metaphor is just very correct,
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: and so Woppole is an embodiment of something that I
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: feel that we are fighting right now that is not
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: that like a major portion of our population has not
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: acknowledged this is who he really is, and they have
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: a whole other person that they see when they look
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: at him until recently, where he's like done a couple
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: things that maybe has alienated some people, but like, honestly,
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: I'm not even really buying it. So a couple of people, Uh, sorry,
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: Austin says, you mean not Jack Black. Austin, I had
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: to double check, and he actually has played his character
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: in School of Rock on Broadway. This dude, I'm like
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: unable to pinpoint who he reminds me of because the
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: actor's name is Rob Colletti, and he is doing this
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: thing that is ringing all these like bells in my head,
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: making me feel like I know this guy from something.
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: I've seen him somewhere, and I looked at the IMDb
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: like known for us, and nothing is familiar to me.
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: There's not a thing that I have seen, So I
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: don't know what it is about this guy. It may
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: be that he's like kind of drawing on Jack Black
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: for his voice, and that's what's triggering that little like
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: I recognize him thing in me is that he's so
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: on point with the voice imitation. But this dude is awful,
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: and he's awful on such a huge variety of levels.
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: He's incredibly greedy, he's super loud. His jaw is so
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: ugly to look at, and when he eats, there's food
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: like stuck on the outside of it because it doesn't
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: work like normal lips, you know, his tongue doesn't like
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: seem to even reach out there. So there's just this
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: real kind of nasty growths about him. He is cruel.
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: He is bombastic in a way that's not even like
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: fun or silly. It's it's a toddler throwing a tantrum.
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: That's really I keep going back to that. It really
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: feels like this is a dude who's actually screaming and
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: stomping his feet when he doesn't get what he wants,
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: you know, a kind of spoiled brat that is just
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: metastasized into a whole new level of creature, like a
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: legendary Pokemon, you know. Nohoa says, I saw an interview
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: from the actor that hinted that he took inspiration from
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: certain real life people. Yeah, I was definitely getting that.
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: There's just you know, something here. And so the first
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: scene that we get of him, Robin is just getting
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: off the phone with mister Zero Robin in this like
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: pleth outfit by the way, which I don't remember from
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: the anime, but it's certainly a look and his assistance retainers,
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: I guess is the word you want. They are like
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: getting mad at her for talking to up Pull any
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: kind of way when he is a king and she
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: has to be like, he's not a king. He needs
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: us if he wants to be a king again. So
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: actually I can talk to him anyway I feel like,
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: but we do want to preserve a kind of like
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: decorum between us. So here is a gift, and it
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: is a devil fruit. And the way that these work
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: is that we don't know what kind of power you're
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: going to get until you get it. Now, I'm really curious,
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: y'all because this power is so perfectly suited to him.
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: We don't see this episode like what it is, but
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: I'm wondering if like the person has influence on the fruit,
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: if there's like a possibility, because you know, you don't
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: know till you eat it. And I recognize that eventually
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: it's revealed that like the power will manifest again if
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: that person dies and like it goes back to a
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: new fruit, or there is a way that we can
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: begin to obtain these powers in another way, which I
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: won't get into but initially I am curious of like,
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: is it possible to influence what the power is or
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: how it works? You know, I don't know. So anyway,
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: he is very excited to see this devil fruit, and
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: it's not really clear for us right away, like we
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: could tell he sucks, but it's not until we get
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: the flashbacks later that we realize how awful he is
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: and how what bad news it is that he got
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: his hands on a double fruit. We already know, of course,
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: we don't want a clear villain getting more superpowers, but
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: it's very easy in the moment to just be like, well,
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: and then later, once you see what he is like
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: before having any powers, you're just like, oh god, how
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: bad is it going to be? You know? So let's
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: just talk about these flashbacks here, because eventually the ship,
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: you know, they spot this island and Vivi recognizes it
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: as they begin to get closer and says, Drum Island.
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: And I really love the way this actress is playing
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: the moment when they're like, oh, so you know it,
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: and she's super diplomatic of just being like they're people
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: are supposed to be very warm and kind and they're
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: they're like renowned for their medicine. She's not saying anything
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: that's untrue. She is just not mentioning the things that
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: she has encountered regarding the ruler. And as we go
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: into a flashback, we see this little girl. Oh. I
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: don't know where they found this little girl, but is
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: she charismatic or what? I love her? And she's peeking
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: in on like basically what amounts to a summit meeting
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: of a bunch of different rulers regarding what to do
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: about the warlords. Right, I'm trying to remember the titles
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: that we have for everything. We have. The Dracula dude
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: pop up here, This guy I like completely forgot about.
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: There's all sorts of folks that the camera slowly pans over,
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: but we don't really much time with them. We're just
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: establishing that they exist in this episode. And they're talking
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: about like, well, what do we pay the warlords for
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: because they're supposed to like protect us and our people,
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: and somebody else is like, hmm, that's not really their job.
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: They're just like meant to take on missions and carry
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: things out for us. They're what you're saying is like
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: something that's sort of incidental to that, and it all
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: has to do with the revolution that's being led by
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: Dragon aka Lufy's dad, and you know the fact that
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: he is beginning to gain some momentum and this is
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: very worrying and how hard should we mobilize against this
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: particular threat. And it's Woppole who is just like not
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: taking this seriously as a threat, and he's saying that, like,
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: if y'all are worried about a revolution, just take everything
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: away from your people and they will stop. It's really
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: not that hard. My people are happy, and if they
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: start to act up, I just stop giving them food,
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: shelter and medicine. Problem solved. Everybody at the table is
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: very much in agreement that like they're they're not saying anything,
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: but they're looking at each other like oh boy. And
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: then we finally see Vivi's dad, King Kobrt, and he
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: pipes up about how your country had used to be
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: run by people who gave a fuck, which, of course
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: Walpole's insistence is just like they didn't know how to
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: rule people. I do. You tell them how it is,
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: and if they act up, you tell them how it
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: is and then beat the shit out of them. And
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: then tell them how it is, again obviously making no friends.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: But Wapoul doesn't care about that, because this is not
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: a person who thinks he needs anybody else. This is
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: somebody who is so certain that his power is adequate
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: to any task that he's untouchable essentially. And Vivi, as
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: she is watching this, gets caught by uh, I'll you
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: guys know, I want to say, figure out igorum. And
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: she is supposed to be on the ship waiting for
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: her father, but they have a little conversation here that
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: is so great. First, she's just like, dude, if I'm
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: supposed to be queen someday, how the hell am i
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: meant to know how to run shit if I'm not
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: in on these conversations at all, Like, this is not
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: a way to train me and teach me. I have
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: to see something. And Ingram seems to kind of give
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: her a nod on that one, like okay, you scored
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: a point there, and then he's like, all right, how
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: about we make a deal and I'll like bring you
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: on a tour and you can instead of going straight
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: back to the ship, and I won't tell your dad
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: that you snuck out. And she's like well, you're my guardian,
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: so like not telling him that I snuck out is
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: really doing yourself a favor, not me. But I will
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: see this offer and raise you and ice cream and
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: then we would be square. How about that. It's great,
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: it's so good, it's so good. So sorry, the seraphim says,
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: the fact that they kept in king Hamburger. Look, do
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: not get me started. Marshall is looking around this group
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: of people and was just like what what what what
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: is that? And I'm just like, don't worry about it, baby,
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: you don't need to know any of this yet. It's
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: like that I can't remember what episode it is, guys,
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: But there comes a point where like the warlords and
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: the World Government, all these people are introduced in one
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: single episode, and everybody was like excited for me to
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: reach that episode, and I was just like, guys, this
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: is just a freaking cast list of forty people. I
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: can't I'm sure you're excited because you know anything that
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: happens with this this is too much. It does not
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: make an impression on me. And I was just trying
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: to be like, don't worry about it, don't worry about it.
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: You'll know what you need to know when you need
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: to know it, just don't worry about it. Yeah, Austin says,
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: I saw so many many live action onlinees, goo was
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: that Abraham Lincoln? And like short answer is, yes, it is,
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: it's not. But like h hmm, yep, yep. Correct. So
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: then we have the end of the meeting while Pull
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: comes storming out. It's unclear if there was an agreement
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: reached that he just disagrees with, or if it's simply
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: being called out by King Kobra that he's pissed regarding.
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: I think it's just that. But he is coming down
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: the hall. Vivi is standing in the center of the
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: hallway just staring at him like as one would because
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: the dude is a fucking spectacle, and he just raises
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: a hand and slaps the shit out of her. And
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: as soon as she goes down, I'm like, oh, man,
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: I don't remember what happens when he finds out who
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: she is, and I had totally forgot. He doesn't give
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: any fucks at all. There's no moment of like, oh shit,
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: I slapped a princess. It's didn't you slap the princess?
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: Fuck off? And I could not help but laugh a
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: little bit because like he starts off with like, whoa
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: the Princess? For a split second, I was like, wait,
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: is he really Oh nope, nope, that was sarcasm. I
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: just like got taken in for a split second and
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: I was cracking up. So I'm sorry. Sarah fram says, Oda,
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: how can I avoid seeming like I'm making fun of
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: in real life people? I know, I'll just make fun
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: of everyone. I mean, that isn't a bad tactic on
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: a certain level. I see the logic to it. Austin says,
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: saw a bunch of latinos go, that's just my uncle
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: about King Taco. Like, you know, there there are stereotypes
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: and then there are stereotypes, and like to a degree,
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: something might hit. What can you do? I'm not trying
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: to get mad when people make fun of basic white
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: ladies liking pumpkins, spice and infinity scarves. I am what
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: I am, and that is just simply you know, sure
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: I don't have waste length, blonde extensions and Mormon husband,
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: but I took plenty of boxes and that's just something
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: that I have to live with. So Seraphim says, oh no,
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: he knew full well who she was and did that
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: because he was pissed off at her dad. Oh did he? Oh?
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: I thought he was just taking it out on anybody,
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: and then it turning out to be who it was.
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: He was just like, yeah, like I fucking care. Oh okay,
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: Serafim says, it's clearer in the manga slash anime. Ah okay, Yeah,
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: I didn't, like I said, I didn't really remember this
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: scene that well. But Viv Viv displaying a type of
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: presence of mind, patience, and lack of ego in this
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: moment that at forty one years, I only aspire to
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: apologizes for bumping into him. I just I I know
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: that there is a better way to be than the
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: way that I am about a lot of things. I
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: know in theory that that is true, but the way
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: that just clear slips my mind in the moment. There
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: is one way to cope, and that has slapped this
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: bitch right the fuck back. I mean, I am not
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: cut out for the type of job that Viv has,
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: That's all I'm saying. So she smiles in it as
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: she says this, completely convincing, and then we cut to
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: her alone in this other room, crying to herself. And
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: Ingram coming up to her and being like, you were magnificent,
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: and I was like, that is a word that gets
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: thrown around a lot and honestly often isn't deserved, but
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: in this case it is. There have been there's a
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: lot of moments throughout media where there's like a little
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: kid that's meant to have impressed an adult, and it'll
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: feel a lot of the time like you're congratulating the
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: kid for simply not having been a complete asshole about something,
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: and that just feels like the bottom of the barrel,
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: Like how low is the bar You know, here this
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: is completely valid, congratulating her for the way that she
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: just managed to sidestep what could have been a really
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: ugly situation. You know, he was looking for a fight
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: and she just wouldn't give him one. I mean, I
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: can have a temper on me sometimes, guys. I know
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: this about myself, and it's still it's still you know,
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: I mean, the people out there who are looking for
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: a fight, I don't want to sink to their level.
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: I don't want to give them what they're after and
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: the satisfaction of that. But it's so it makes me
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: feel so much better for a second, and it's just
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: really short term thinking. So anyway, that is pretty much
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: the extent of the flashbacks that we get this episode
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: of viv I don't feel like we see her with
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: her father at all. I'm I'm trying to remember because
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: when I scrub through the episode too fast, guys, I've
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: been getting like little error sometimes. So I'm just trying
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: to like make sure that I don't do it unless
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: it's like absolutely crucial for me to remember something. Oh
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: and I should mention too, that's what's the sword bro
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: from Drum Island, guys. What is his name? Dalton? Thank you?
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: Dalton is standing like he's behind woppole when he hits
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: Vivi and he apologizes as they're walking away and looks
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: really embarrassed. And then later when Igorm is comforting Vivian,
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: telling her that she is displayed what a great leader
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: she will be, he is standing outside the doorway listening
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: and they're sort of like there's an expression on his
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: face that I am very much putting down to like
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: wistfulness of that literal child is a better leader than
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: the one that we have right now, you know, like
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: it's it's a pride in her, but also just like
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: chagrin and regret. So this we don't. Let's jump back
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: to our friends getting off the ship. They are there's
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: not like anything here to indicate a bustling dock, you
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: know that. It's it's very much as they climb up
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: toward the walls of this keep this town, that outside
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: of these walls, it's pretty much deserted. There's not commerce
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: going on or anything like that. As they approach, first
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: of all, there's just like a layer of snow over everything,
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: but also there are like busted pieces of carts and
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: things cast around, like things are just in disrepair and
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: quite messy and have clearly been for a while, judging
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: on the fact that there is undisturbed snow covering a
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: lot of it. And as they approach, there is somebody
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: yelling that they don't want to deal with pirates, and
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: Lufy is saying, but our friend is sick, she needs help,
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: and they're just like, don't really care. And as they
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: continue forward, somebody fires a shot hits Viv's arm. It's
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: like it's a graze on the outside. It's not bad,
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: but uh, it's startling. It's uncalled for, and understandably Lufy
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: has his reaction that, like, you know, pretty much mirrors
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: what mine would be, which is he yell's u assholes
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: and begins to sort of like rear back and wind
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: up for a punch. Not sure exactly who he was
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: gonna punch if he can even see anybody. I'm thinking
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: he would just punch like the wall or something. But this, Yeah,
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: Seraphim says. One thing I was kind of huh on
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: was how in the manga slash anime, It's clear this
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: is an entire country with multiple towns, but live action
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: made it seem like the whole kingdom is just this
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: one small village. And yeah, it's the sort of thing
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: that happens in like a lot of stuff is we
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: will boil things down, so it's a lot simpler visually.
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: But I agree Seraphim especially it's it's like when you
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: say small village, this place is the size of a target.
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: It's so small it's crazy. Like the idea that all
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: of these people actually live within these walls is a
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: little bit bonkers. And while I am not exactly like,
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: I'm not mad at it, it's just like I'm surprised
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: that there wasn't more of an effort with CG to
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: make it look a little bit bigger. Considering Logtown just
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: looked so good. This Town feels much more like a set.
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: It still feels like we're outside. It's not like that
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: kind of thing, but it just does seem the space
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: is super limited, you know. I have to assume like
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: for fights later and want not to be more concentrated
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: so that we can't spread out as much. Probably a
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: lot of the money went into Logtown, and we'll go
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: into Alabasta. But based on the fact that we have
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: not like we've only got two episodes left, I'm actually
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: realized and we probably won't reach Alabasa this season, So
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: if we see any of it, it's gonna be like
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: really really toward the end, and it'll just be like
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: we have arrived here and then season will be over
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: kind of thing. Seraphim says, things being as deserted as
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: they are could just be everyone being in hiding from
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: the recent attacks. But they keep saying this village instead
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: of this kingdom. It's not just the set, it's how
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: they talked about it. That's fair true, But yeah, like
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: I said to me, visually, it was just like a
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: very It was bizarrely small, the camera choosing they have
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: like a drone shot basically, and I sort of felt
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: like y'all didn't really need to give us a drone
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: shot if it was gonna be this small. Maybe you
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: don't want us to know how small the place is
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: for sure, because I feel like this is sort of
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: I mean, I feel like I've had campsites bigger than this,
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: So anyway comes out. And because Vivi does the thing
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: where she swallows her bride, literally gets on her knees
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: and places her forehead on the ground and is like,
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: we are really really sorry if we have done something,
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: but our friend is in dire straits and is literally
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: dying and we are asking for your help. And Lufy
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: looks over at her, and you guys, when she stops
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: him from punching, she says something like if they attack us,
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: what happens to Nami? And the way she delivers the
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: next line, you are the captain, think, girl, Yes, this
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: is what I have wanted somebody to say to Lufy
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: for such a while. Here, you know, like it's just
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: her as a leader, being like this is not leadership behavior, sir.
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: You don't just get to indulge in your little fucking
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: you know, like spate of emotion. She right, But I couldn't.
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: I could not tell you with truthfulness that I'd be
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: upset at Loofy trying to punch whoever shot at them.
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: I'd probably be like, yeah, get them loviy. But she's right,
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: She's right. So Dalton comes out, reads some apologizes I
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: do love. As he leads them inside. The person who
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: finded the rifle is just like, sorry about that, and
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: he has to be like, yeah, they're not trained soldiers,
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: so they have got itchy trigger fingers, sorry about it.
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: We've just been through a lot recently, and we find
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: out that Blackbeard attacked and Wopole basically took himself away
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: somewhere to hide and completely abandoned his people, and they
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: got ravaged, and what left is like just trying to
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: pull it back together again after this awful attack. They're
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: worried that Blackbeard may come back, but you know, for now,
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: they've just got to behave as if they're completely rebuilding,
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: and while poll you know, he is hiding out. It's
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: interesting because the way that Robin talked about him being
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: not a king anymore made it sound like he was
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: actively deposed, and I can't recall how like if there's
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: any further details here, but it sounds like he just
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: took off, So I guess the expectation is that after
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: you just took off like that, you think that people
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: are going to accept you back if you just try
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: to mosey back down and like sit back on the
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: throne again. So anyway, Dalton is clearly just try to
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: hold shit together here, and it's the person that everybody
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: is looking to. And later on there's a conversation between
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: him and Zoro where he talks about trying to keep
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: everybody united and Zorro says something like and who will
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: lead these people you? And He's like, no, I don't
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: want to do that, and Zoro's like, yeah, you don't
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: always get to choose, though, do you. So you know,
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: just let me know if you need me, because I
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: will fight. But I'll be waiting to see, with breadth
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: that is baited, who else steps up to potentially lead
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: these folks. So the extent of the damage is such that,
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: like they don't have a lot to offer. The straw hats,
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: there's a tavern that they can sort of set up
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: shop in, and when they're asking about a doctor evidently
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: there are like none left. There's one that the right
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: woman calls a witch, and she lives at the top
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: of the tallest tower slash cliff you've ever seen. And
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: we're going to have to wait to go up there
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: until the next day because you will not reach there
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: by nightfall and it's way too dangerous, which, of course
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: we know that will not be happening. Lufy is in
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: like it's it's so it takes longer than I would
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: even expect for him to choose to climb. He gives
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: it more thought than I feel like Loufy ever has
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: to anything, and Nami is in really bad shape. It
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: grows increasingly clear we can't wait till tomorrow. It's not
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: good guys. So Loufy posits to Nami, what if I
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: climb and I carry you? And of course Vivi the
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: voice reason is just like, are you fucking high? But
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: Nami says, I'm counting on you. Captain Sanji insists on
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: going with the two of them, and Zora wants to
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: come to but is told they are going to need
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: you down here, so you better stay behind because we
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: have to have some kind of fighter with the rest
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: of our friends. So they create this makeshift sling for
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: Nam to sit in while Lufy climbs. And I remember
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: this being an issue for me in the anime, and
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: I was very gratified watching with my husband that he
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: asked the same question that I asked at the time.
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: I was like, why isn't Lufi using his gum gum powers.
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: He's just climbing this cliff face like a normal fucking chump.
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: He's got powers that would this way easier. Why isn't
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: he using them? And Marshall asked the exact same thing.
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: We go to the scene where he's slowly climbing and
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: Marshall's like, doesn't he have powers? And I'm like, yeah, yeah,
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: he does. And it wouldn't be so like egregious if
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: it weren't for the fact that when Sanji falls, Loofy
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: grabs him with his head and flings him up in Like,
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: I'm not trying to suggest that he could have done
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: this from the bottom and gotten Sonji all the way
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: to the top, you know, but it's just sort of
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: sort of like emphasizes that there are other ways that
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: this could have worked, and it distracts me both times.
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: In both versions, I just feel like I would. I
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: would want an explanation of some why the gumgum powers
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: aren't maybe as good in the cold or something. I
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: don't know. You know, Austin said he's afraid of jostling. Nam, Austin,
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: you spelled jostling in a way that's like an ikea
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: piece of furniture. I don't know, it's weird. Saraphim says
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: what Austin said, now Imun was doing so badly. They
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: were worried about the sort of shaking around that would
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: cause would kill her. Florian says, I honestly like it
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: better that he does not use it, just because it's cool.
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: Now here's the thing, Austin sarafm bullshit, So sorry, horseshit.
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: There is absolutely no reason using his powers would jostle
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: her anymore than climbing normally would jostle her. In fact,
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: I would argue rubber is an insulator to jostling. It
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: would probably give a smoother ride, if anything. So I'm
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: not buying it. I'm just not buying it. It's just
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: that we don't want him using his powers because we
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: need this to be a sacrifice for him. So Florian saying,
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: I like it better that he doesn't because it's cool.
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: That's more honest to me, it's because it has to
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: be a trial we have to put Lufy through something.
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: I completely respect that's a thing, but I would like
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: the thing we have to put him through that maybe
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: he tries to use his power and it maybe isn't
• 46:20
  Speaker 1: as effective for some reason or something, you know what
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: I mean, Like have there be a a within the story,
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: something narratively that explains why doing it this way wouldn't work,
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: and illustrate that to me in a believable way, because
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: just saying it jostles her is there is no reason
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: why stretching his arm out and extra twelve feet to
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: pull himself up is going to jostle her anymore than
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: stretching his arm out normally to pull himself up with
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: jostle her. It just doesn't make sense. So the fact
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: that I had this reaction in watching the anime and
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: the Marshall had dis reaction in watching the live action,
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: I maintain that idea doesn't hold water and is distracting.
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: It's not well done. This is one of the things
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: that I think is quite true to the anime that
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: I feel like maybe they should have changed up more.
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: It's one of those that's just like, I understand narratively
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: why we're doing it this way, but all of the
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: rationalizations come that people come up with about, well, here's
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: why it wouldn't feasibly work. It's just fan wanking to
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: make a thing narratively makes sense in world, and it
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: doesn't hold any water to me. Is Sarah, I'm saying
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: it would be essentially shooting her at a slingshot. Nobody
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: is talking about shooting her out a slingshot. I'm talking
• 47:48
  Speaker 1: about Louviy just using his stretchy powers to pull himself
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: up twelve feet at a time instead of two feet
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: at a time. You know, it's just weird. It's just
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: weird that it's the same thing guys as when in
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: early in the anime, early on, and I feel like
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: in live action, but it went different. Lufy's hat flies
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: off his head and I don't remember if it's the
• 48:17
  Speaker 1: wind that does it, or if it's a bird that
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: grabs it or something, and we have him just running
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: around the ship to try and grab it back instead
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: of simply stretching out a stretchy arm and grabbing it
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: out of the air. As he would anything else, But
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: we can't have him just do it that easy, because
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: we need to show his desperation and how upset he
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: is that his hat is flying away because the hat
• 48:40
  Speaker 1: means something to him. But really, it doesn't make sense
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: that he wouldn't use his stretchy power, which is so
• 48:47
  Speaker 1: immediately available, to grab something that's super important to him.
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: Then he would use what he has available, a tool
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: that he uses often, you know. So it's just like
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: a It's a story telling beat that I understand, but
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: I think there is a way to illustrate to the viewer.
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: Why wouldn't he do this or change it up somehow
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: to not have it be actively distracting as you're watching
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: it going. But I know that he has like ways
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: of managing this, you know. So anyway, in the end,
• 49:38
  Speaker 1: like I said, he grabs Snjy with his head, flings
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: him up with his teeth, and then finally pulls himself
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: up to the top, and Sonji is unconscious when he
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: comes up over the edge, and Lufy stays conscious just
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: long enough to tell a mysterious furry footed figure please
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: help my friends and or please save I think is
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: the is the wording, and he passes out. I'm gonna
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: jump down real quick to just touch on the sea
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: that I had mentioned earlier with Vivi and Oosop and Zorro,
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: because Oosop is busy like constructing a bunch of little bullets.
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: I don't know what the word is, but you know,
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: for his slingshot gadget, and Zoro is just sort of
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: pacing around talking about how they'll never get up there
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: in time, what is going on with Nami or we
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: won't be able to see, you know. He's kind of
• 50:42
  Speaker 1: doom and glooming, and Sanji is focusing on building his
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: thing and saying, we just have to believe that they're
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: gonna make it, which is really like it sounds corny
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: to be like we just have to believe, but honestly,
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: at this moment, that is to really all you can do.
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: And Zoro tries to press the issue and is like,
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: are you not even hearing me? And finally Usup kind
• 51:09
  Speaker 1: of snaps at him and is like, Zoro, you need
• 51:11
  Speaker 1: to find something to do. You're standing here over me
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: just talking shit. I can't tell you any more than
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: you know you are not helping. Go find something to do,
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: and Zorro puts down his bottle next to usop and says,
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: you could have asked nicely. I think he did ask nicely.
• 51:38
  Speaker 1: To be honest, Zorro, and I would love for anybody
• 51:44
  Speaker 1: later on, when asked by Zoro to do anything to
• 51:50
  Speaker 1: respond with you could have asked nicely, because Zorro doesn't
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: ask anything nicely. Ever, if that wasn't nice, then Zorro,
• 51:58
  Speaker 1: I have news for you. It's a very dish it
• 52:02
  Speaker 1: out but can't take it kind of quality. So I
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: was sort of proud of us up for this actually,
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: cause it's true. I have look. I know that I am.
• 52:17
  Speaker 1: I am a person who is like pathologically optimistic, and
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: I know that about myself to a degree. I can
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: understand that not everybody can muster that, and I can
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: understand that maybe it can be irritating. Even so I
• 52:32
  Speaker 1: do try when I'm around people who have a more
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: negative outlook to just sort of keep my mouth shut
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: because I don't need to hear them contradict everything I say.
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: I don't, you know, like, but one thing I won't
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: do is just let you continue pouring negativity out. If
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep myself quiet, you better do the same
• 52:58
  Speaker 1: fucking thing, you know, so I have definitely said the
• 53:04
  Speaker 1: equivalent of this to people of just like, if you
• 53:08
  Speaker 1: don't have anything productive to add, just sit on your hands,
• 53:13
  Speaker 1: go sit in the corner and shut up, because otherwise
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: you're not helping. I don't know what it is you
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: think you're accomplishing here other than spreading misery and fear,
• 53:25
  Speaker 1: but shut up. So anyway, that's what leads to Zorra
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: having the conversation outside with Dalton that he has, and
• 53:35
  Speaker 1: then we have the brief exchange between Oosap and Viv
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: where it becomes really clear part of what has shaken
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: Viv so much about coming here is seeing that drum
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: kingdom is like, you know, they had been so prosperous,
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: they had had everything, and solely due to having a
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: ruler who did not look out for them, they have
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: nothing now and they are just desolated. And obviously it's
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: just her panicking about what state is my kingdom going
• 54:11
  Speaker 1: to be in once I return. I've been gone for
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: such a long time. I don't know what's happening. And
• 54:18
  Speaker 1: this is all very valid, and it makes sense that
• 54:21
  Speaker 1: she would just be looking around, going Jesus fucking Christ,
• 54:25
  Speaker 1: you know, so now we're going to go back to
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: the main event. Nowmi wakes up. She's on an ivy
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: drip of some medicine. Her arm doesn't have the black
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: lines anymore. There's a roaring fire. She's tucked under a blanket.
• 54:41
  Speaker 1: She looks over and sees Sanjy in another bed and
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: he's all tucked in and bandaged up. And then here
• 54:48
  Speaker 1: comes Chopper. You guys, I'm so excited. He is so cute.
• 54:54
  Speaker 1: I saw a little clip of I don't even remember
• 54:58
  Speaker 1: if it was just like Chopper, like say high or
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: what like it's it was just something circulating on the socials,
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: and at the time I was sort of eh on
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: the design and the voice. I remember just being like,
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: I guess well, and I don't know if it wasn't
• 55:16
  Speaker 1: fully finished when that was released. I don't know, because
• 55:21
  Speaker 1: like part of me wonders about marketing. There was a
• 55:24
  Speaker 1: whole thing, if y'all will remember about Sonic the Hedgehog
• 55:26
  Speaker 1: when they did those movies, and they released a trailer
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: that had Sonic with these like weird human teeth that
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: were like, he just looked crazy, and the studio took
• 55:40
  Speaker 1: the feedback of the reaction of fans to that trailer
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: and completely redesigned Sonic to look different, and I was like,
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: I wonder if this is just being put out there
• 55:49
  Speaker 1: so that they can get the like take the temperature
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: of the audience and see what people are thinking, or
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: I honestly don't recall how much it changed from that
• 55:58
  Speaker 1: preview to what why up in the show? Sorry, Saraphim
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: just says, ah, we do not speak of ugly Sonic. Yeah,
• 56:08
  Speaker 1: it was real bad, guys, it was really bad. This
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: was one of those things where just like sometimes I
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: think studios will will cater too much to fans and
• 56:18
  Speaker 1: you know, we don't need to listen to them about everything,
• 56:20
  Speaker 1: and then there are things like this where I'm like,
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: y'all are lucky you made a good decision there, because
• 56:26
  Speaker 1: that was not gonna work out. Austin says the reaction was, ah,
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: kill it with fire exactly. But yeah, Chopper is so adorable.
• 56:39
  Speaker 1: The voice is just right in my opinion, where it's
• 56:42
  Speaker 1: like it's a little bit babyish, but not in an
• 56:46
  Speaker 1: annoying way. The only thing that I feel like could
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: have made it better would be if Chopper were more
• 56:55
  Speaker 1: like a puppet, unless just animation, and it's possible that
• 57:02
  Speaker 1: they might do more like with a puppet version of
• 57:05
  Speaker 1: him later. I don't know. Uh. There's also like the
• 57:10
  Speaker 1: fact that when Lufy sees him, he has transformed, like
• 57:14
  Speaker 1: it's hard for us to see, but if you know,
• 57:16
  Speaker 1: you know where he looks up the length of Chopper,
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: and Chopper doesn't have hooves at that point, he has
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: regular feet and we can see how much taller he
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: is and that he has, you know, like the big
• 57:29
  Speaker 1: dorito chest kind of thing going on. So here, this
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: little baby Chopper sort of understandable why Lufy is not
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: connecting the dots. But Nammy tries to talk to Chopper,
• 57:47
  Speaker 1: who kind of freaks out about her attempts to hide
• 57:50
  Speaker 1: the wrong direction, and Nammy is so like entertained by this.
• 57:55
  Speaker 1: It's just like, do you think you're hiding? And then
• 58:00
  Speaker 1: are you the one that saved me? And then we
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: get the guitar riff and the laugh and here comes
• 58:07
  Speaker 1: Kure otherwise known as doctor Rene. I really thought that
• 58:19
  Speaker 1: this was going to be Jamie Lee Curtis, guys. I
• 58:24
  Speaker 1: don't know why. Where in my head I had it
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: lodged that she had actually been signed on to this role.
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: But somewhere along the way I could have sworn that
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: it was officially announced that she was going to be
• 58:41
  Speaker 1: playing this role. I thought for sure, I knew she
• 58:46
  Speaker 1: had gotten into the show for the sake of one
• 58:48
  Speaker 1: of her kids, and that she was like, I would
• 58:52
  Speaker 1: love to play the role. Like I knew all of
• 58:53
  Speaker 1: that was just her engaging with it as an idea,
• 58:59
  Speaker 1: but I thought it had been settled. And I don't
• 59:02
  Speaker 1: know where I got that from. So anyway, it turns
• 59:08
  Speaker 1: out that it is. And I hate that this is
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: the way that I'm It's peg Bundy, and I know
• 59:16
  Speaker 1: she has been in so many more things, and she
• 59:17
  Speaker 1: has so much right to be mad that I can't
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: remember her name, but I never can. I'm so sorry.
• 59:23
  Speaker 1: She's great in this role. She looks fantastic in this
• 59:28
  Speaker 1: whole aesthetic, but I it was just so jarring because
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: I was so sure and then she steps out and
• 59:35
  Speaker 1: I was like what And it's fine, It's totally fine.
• 59:40
  Speaker 1: But it was just a moment of me being like, wow,
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: I have got the casting like all mixed up in
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: my head, you know, because I had also thought that
• 59:48
  Speaker 1: fucking what's his face played Smoker and that was the
• 59:51
  Speaker 1: wrong guy, like all over the place, Saraphim says she
• 59:56
  Speaker 1: was fully on board for it, but they couldn't make
• 59:58
  Speaker 1: the scheduling work. Ah, gotcha, because yeah, she's still out
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: here working a lot. So anyway, we have her walking
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 1: Chopper through continuing to diagnose Nammy and you know what,
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 1: further does she need more antibiotics, more bed rest, YadA YadA.
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 1: We find out. Nommy tries to say, oh, I'm fine
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 1: and is about to leave, and Korea holds a knife
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: to her throat and is like, you're gonna leave once
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 1: you're fully recovered or once you're dad, that's it. Sit down.
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 1: Sanji had some broken ribs, and then just as Nammy
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 1: is asking well what about Loofy, we hear Lufy's scream
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 1: and he comes running in, glistening like a basted turkey,
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 1: wrapped in a towel, talking about how he's being boiled
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 1: alive by a witch who's gonna eat him, and that
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 1: he was kill carried inside by a huge furry beast,
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 1: which as he says that, the camera cuts to Chopper,
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 1: who like hunches and looks hurt, and I was just like,
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 1: how dare you, Loofy? How dare you hurt? My baby's
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 1: feelings take it back, and then Correyad has to explain
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 1: you were hypothermic. I put you in that bath so
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 1: that you wouldn't lose a limb to a frost bite.
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 1: And he begins to settle down, and then we have
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 1: Chopper hurrying past Lufy to leave the room, and Lufy
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 1: turning and looking at him and getting the expression on
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 1: your face that you get when somebody unexpectedly reaches into
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 1: their purse and pulls out a kitten and a baby
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 1: bottle and tells you it's time for us to feed
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 1: the kitten. It's like that kind of expression where something
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 1: is so cute that you feel like you just want
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 1: to put it in your mouth, Like it's so cute
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 1: that you can't quite fully take it, and you just
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 1: like you're like, oh my god, and they're they're holding
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 1: out the kitten and the little bottle, and you're just like,
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 1: oh my god, it's happening. It's happening. That's the whole
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 1: vibe for me of this moment. It's the best, and
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 1: I love that it's like, what are you? The camera
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 1: just stays on him and he like kind of wriggles
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 1: in place and puts his hands on his face and
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 1: just like and then again, what are you? What is that?
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 1: It's very very fun, great ending. I remember, if I'm
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 1: not mistaken, in the anime, I feel like Nami reacts
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 1: with more fear to Chopper, and if I'm not mistaken,
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 1: I feel like Chopper and Lufy actually fight in the anime.
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 1: I just feel like there was more aggression toward Chopper
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 1: in the anime, and I remember at the time feeling
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 1: kind of like this is just weird. And of course
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 1: there's like a lot of problematic elements regarding how Chopper
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 1: has been treated and raised by various people, which I
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 1: am sure the show is going to be pulling back
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 1: on quite a bit because ideas have changed. But you know,
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 1: it's it feels like we're pretty much jumping to what
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 1: an adorable little creature for everybody? And I really that's
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 1: that's what I want fully, So yes, good and I
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 1: cannot wait to see more of Chopper next episode. I
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 1: like all of this is very I wanna get like
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 1: a Chopper hat to wear, but my head is so
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 1: big that I don't think I could find something that
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 1: would actually fit. I think I need to make it myself.
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 1: Seraphim says not so much aggression as misunderstanding about Lufy
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 1: at all. Saying Chopper is a monster isn't an insult
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 1: to them. Okay, so they call him a monster and
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 1: and it starts a fight, Okay, gotcha? Uh yeah, I
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 1: just I I wouldn't mind like completely sidestepping all of that.
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 1: That's fine, totally cool. All right, I'm overtime, so I
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 1: gotta wrap up, but very excited to watch the next one.
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 1: I know that my husband is going to be really
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 1: glad that we get a uh to watch another one today.
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 1: Every time every day he's like, can you watch another
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 1: one yet? Did you record yet? So uh. He was
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 1: really irritated when a couple of weeks ago I had
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 1: taken a day off and I was like, oh, yeah, no,
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 1: we have to wait till Thursday, and he was like,
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 1: come on. So I'm glad to see that he is
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 1: enjoying it. Also, thank you all so much for coming
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 1: for commissioning these. I am enjoying the hell out of it.
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 1: Oh and also, there's like a promo thing for one
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 1: piece at Popeyes right now. I posted it in the discord.
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 1: I love Popeyes so much, it's so good. I am
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 1: absolutely going to be getting this promo item by the way,
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 1: like a hundred percent. I'll probably just do like a
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 1: quick TikTok or something about it. But definitely there's like
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 1: a gumgum lemonade, a chopper cupcake. I mean there, it's
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 1: going to be like garbage, nothing food. But that's fine.
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 1: I love a gimmick, give it to me. So I
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 1: watched Meghan the Stallion got a fucking actual treasure chest
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 1: with one piece and Popeye's logo on the outside, and
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 1: then an actual one piece bento box, like a wooden
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 1: and plastic bento box with the chicken inside, and I
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 1: was just like, well, why don't I get that? Because
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 1: you're not making a stallion, Natasha. That's why. All right, guys,
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 1: I will see you what's today Tuesday? I will see
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 1: you Thursday. Until then, to the loo, motherfuckers. That was
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 1: an Unspoiled Network podcast.
