Latest / Michelle Explains Anime, Poorly / Re:Zero, Ep. 24- The Self-Proclaimed Knight and the Greatest Knight
Transcript
- 0:00Hey, it's your person, Michelle back again. I was just outside trying
- 0:06to shovel the ice off my sidewalk because we're having a storm. And my
- 0:12neighbor, who is awesome, made the mistake of shoveling earlier today and was
- 0:19nice enough to shovel my sidewalk and driveway while I don't know, maybe I
- 0:25was like asleep or showering. I'm not really sure. I just looked up
- 0:28and it was done, which is super nice. I mean, I was
- 0:33kind of looking forward to doing it, but I appreciate it. But he
- 0:37neglected to realize that it was supposed to freezing rain for the rest of the
- 0:41morning, So now everything outside is frozen. And I had intended to wait
- 0:48until it stopped and then go out and then so the snow right now it's
- 0:51like snow and it has a crunchy layer of crunchy ice on it. It
- 0:57would have been super easy to get off of things now, and now it's
- 1:00impossible for me to get the ice off of my sidewalk and driveway. The
- 1:06good news is I don't have to go anywhere right now. The bad news
- 1:10is I don't have any sort of product that melts ice because it hasn't snowed
- 1:15here in over seven hundred days, and I'm poor, so I don't keep
- 1:19that kind of stuff, So I don't really know what's going to happen.
- 1:23I assume that people will just slip and hurt themselves and it will be my
- 1:27fault. So yeah, I was trying to take the ice off with my
- 1:33shovel, but it's freezing raining again, so I stopped. So I'll do
- 1:37it after I do this, I guess. Yay. So now you know
- 1:42that, for some reason, yay, knowledge of other people's struggles that aren't
- 1:47really struggles, it's just normal stuff. Yay. So anyway, we're gonna
- 1:52talk about the second to last episode of season one of REE zero, which
- 1:56is episode twenty four, and it's called The Self Proclaimed Night and the Greatest
- 2:00Night Cool. I think. I assume self Proclaimed Knight is Nazi Subaru,
- 2:07but who the Greatest Knight is? This feels really debatable at this point,
- 2:10so hopefully they will tell us in this episode. So we start the episode
- 2:15with Subaru. Remember he just died in the last episode. Felix killed him
- 2:21because he was turning into beetlejuice, remember, and he was like, you
- 2:23gotta kill me, and then Felix did, and Julius is really upset obviously,
- 2:29and like we see black and then we see things flashing kind of before
- 2:34his eyes, like his life flashing before his eyes. And then we see
- 2:37the produce stand guy and he says boy, and Subaru thinks this can't be
- 2:45better, not be. But then he comes to and Ricardo is standing next
- 2:49to him and there's no produce guy, thank god. And Ricardo's just like,
- 2:53what's wrong? And Subro looks around and he sees the Knights and the
- 2:58mercenaries kind of seated around him and Ricardo, and then like out of nowhere,
- 3:01Felix just starts chewing on his ear. What And Subro pulls back and
- 3:07he like gasps, and Felix says, you were spaced out, so I
- 3:12had to pick on you. Really, that was a satisfying reaction. And
- 3:16Suber's like Felix, and Felix says, who else do I look like?
- 3:22Did you inhale too much of the white whales? Fog? Okay, now
- 3:25we know where we are. We're after the battle with the white whale yay,
- 3:30And Subru says, uh no, I'm fine. That told me exactly
- 3:34what I wanted to know me too, that means, and he thinks my
- 3:38save point has been updated yay, And then we see the show title card
- 3:43letting us know that I have an extra amount of writing notes on this episode
- 3:49and no opening theme. Back from what was probably a break, Subrou is
- 3:53standing in front of everyone and he says, there are a few new things
- 3:58I've realized about the Witch's cults, and Mimi and Tivvy look kind of confused,
- 4:03and Super says, does anyone know of like a power like that you
- 4:08can use to overwrite someone's consciousness, so you psychologically possess them? And Julius
- 4:14says, so you think the sin archbishops may have a kind of ability like
- 4:18that? And Suber's like, yeah, I call it possession. That sounds
- 4:21about right. It's how they stay alive. It would explain how he keeps
- 4:26popping up everywhere, right, So Julius says, in an old book,
- 4:30I saw a research account of a similar subject. It's magic that's been lost,
- 4:33but the technique only works under certain conditions, and Super says, what
- 4:38does Julius is like? Only members of the witches called, and only a
- 4:42limited number of these are capable, and Felix is like, so just the
- 4:46fingers, and Julius says, most likely they're the user's spare bodies. It's
- 4:50quite a tasteless arrangement. I suppose one might call it worthy of a sin
- 4:55archbishop. Super is like, so if the sin archbishop's confidence fingers are wiped
- 5:00out, Julius says, if that happened, his soul should have nowhere to
- 5:03go. That'd be the end of him. Subrou like half gasps at this,
- 5:09and Julius continues, we should first eliminate the fingers in the forest and
- 5:13then face sloth directly. That's my conclusion at least. And everyone is really
- 5:16impressed by this, and Subrou kind of like raises his hand and he's like,
- 5:21guys, there's one more thing I need to say. Sorry, but
- 5:27I don't think it's just the fingers, and he like winces and he's like,
- 5:30I think he may be able to possess me too. What do you
- 5:33think I should do? And everybody's like what, And then we go to
- 5:40like a black screen and we hear a voice go filthy woman, and then
- 5:44we have like a compilation of like really mean things that have been said to
- 5:46Amelia. And then the argument between her and Subru where she's like, I
- 5:50was hoping you wouldn't give me special treatment, and he's like, there's no
- 5:54way I could do that. I could never treat you like everyone else.
- 5:57And then Amelia wakes up and she looks like really really bad, and Puck
- 6:01flies over and he's like, Leah, your forehead is all wrinkled. And
- 6:06Amelia sits up and is like, morning, Puck, you're up early today,
- 6:11and Puck says, mourning, Leah, I thought i'd try waking up
- 6:15and going to sleep earlier. That's a lie. The truth is I was
- 6:18worried about you. You've had it rough lately, especially yesterday. And then
- 6:23we see like a flashback of when she went into the village and she was
- 6:26trying to warn them and nobody wanted to listen to her, and Amelia's like,
- 6:30it was nothing I didn't know already, and Puck says, even if
- 6:32you know you'll fail, you still get hurt and lead when it happens,
- 6:36Amelia, this looks like she might cry, and she says, what do
- 6:41you think I should do? No, not just me? How can I
- 6:44be better to everyone and have them be better to me? Jesus Amelia,
- 6:48and Puck says, I think you should do what you want. I'll be
- 6:53on your side no matter what you do, and Amelia smiles. Puck says,
- 6:58and no matter what, you can't abandon the village. Right earlier this
- 7:00morning, Ram headed over there. Maybe we should wait a year from her,
- 7:04and Amelia nods and gets out of bed, and Buck says, I'm
- 7:08gonna go check on Betty and he starts to fly off, and just like,
- 7:12oh, oh, okay, tell her, I said hi. And
- 7:15then we cut to Amelia walking down the stairs and as she is, Ram
- 7:18comes in from outside and she says, you have a visitor, and it's
- 7:24Willhelm any bows, and Amelia's like, you're from Crucia's household, right,
- 7:29And Willhelm kneels and says, I am Wilhelm Trias. Okay, maybe that's
- 7:34his like non married last name or whatever. Anyway, he says, I've
- 7:40come on my master's behalf, and Amelia says, oh, on Crucia's behalf.
- 7:45I received a blank letter from her yesterday and Wilhelm says, I see,
- 7:48so it's true. And Amelia's like what and Willhelm says, well,
- 7:54it changed me to say this the letter contradicted the message she wished to send,
- 7:58and Amelia's like, oh, it was a mistake, and Wilhelm says,
- 8:01yes, Amelia and Ram, we like to evacuate those remaining in the
- 8:05mansion along with the villagers. That's Cruse's will. And I guess there's like
- 8:09a pause here or something, because then Amelia's like, what, there's a
- 8:13ring of criminals in the forest and Ram says, yes, the punitive force
- 8:16that this messenger brought is already preparing to fight the enemy. And Amelia says,
- 8:22but why would Crush do so much to help the s domain, And
- 8:26Wilhelm's like, the Margrave set my master a proposal for an alliance with respect
- 8:31to the royal selection. Sure, the condition is a share of the mining
- 8:35rights in Elli or forest. Do you understand? Enemy is like, oh,
- 8:39so that's what this is about, and Wilhelm says, but evacuating everyone
- 8:43to the capitol will be difficult. Half will go to the capitol, and
- 8:46then Ram chimes in and says, I'll lead the other half to safety in
- 8:50the sanctuary. I don't even know what that is. Whereas Waald's heading here
- 8:52now, Amelia looks really concerned, but she's like, oh, I see.
- 8:56Then the discussion on the matter is already over. There's something weird about
- 9:01this. It all seems so well timed. You're very right about this.
- 9:05And then the door bursts Sobin and it's Subro and he's wearing that hooded cloak
- 9:09that Amelia had on, like when she went to the village, and it's
- 9:15like white, and it's got like ears, like kind of like cat or
- 9:18fox ears, and his face is covered. And I think we may have
- 9:22talked about this before, but the cloak conceals your identity from people. And
- 9:26actually they say it later in this episode, but I think this all makes
- 9:28way more sense if you just know that she doesn't know who he is.
- 9:33Anyway, the door bursts open and it's Suber and he says, pardon me.
- 9:37The group hiding in the forest has been observed moving strangely, we don't
- 9:41have a moment to waste. Once they make their move, the entire region
- 9:45will be a sea of blood. What will it be? Captain no sword,
- 9:48demon, Wilhelm don't know? Oh, And Wilhelm says Amelia, and
- 9:54I mean he's like, I understand, I gracefully accept your kindness. Has
- 9:58this been explain to the villagers, and Ram says that they've been informed,
- 10:03and Amelia's like, I see, and Puck's like, Betty says she'll stay
- 10:05here, and then we flashed to Biaco saying that you can't go, but
- 10:09you'll wait for them to return and don't worry. And then Puck's like,
- 10:13in her case, the forbid library is a much safer place. Besides,
- 10:16due to her contract, she can't leave the mansion. Do you know that,
- 10:20right, Leah Oh? And Amelia's like, no fair, using that
- 10:24as a reason, and then Puck to everyone says, so, since my
- 10:28cute little sister will be staying here, we shouldn't do anything to the mansion.
- 10:31Betty is sweet and kind, but she'll show no mercy, and Wilhelm
- 10:35is like, okay, I gotcha, and then Puck like suddenly goes to
- 10:39Amelia's hair and into her ear. He says, you should do what you
- 10:43want. I'm on your side and yours alone. Amelia nods, and then
- 10:46to everyone says, we'll evacuate. I don't want to endanger the villagers,
- 10:50and Super smiles, and then we go to the village and Amelia is watching
- 10:56some of the villagers leave in a wagon and Petra and the other kids are
- 11:00approach, and Petra says, we're ready on n chan to Amelia and Amelia's
- 11:05like, there must be some kind of mistake and Ram's like, no,
- 11:09given the number of people in carriages, we must ask you to ride with
- 11:11these children. It's a necessary measure. And Amelia's like, can't we put
- 11:16them in a different carriage? I get it, Amelia, I also don't
- 11:18want to ride with the children. They're terrifying. And then she says,
- 11:24I think would be better for the kids, and Suber's like, you think
- 11:28no one will want to ride with you? Have you asked the kids how
- 11:31they feel about it? Perhaps you just assume they hate you a. Amia's
- 11:35like, that's not I don't need to ask them. I know it's best
- 11:39for everyone. Super says, six children and one dragon drawn carriage. If
- 11:43we stumble here, how will your wish ever come true? Animea's like are
- 11:48you? And Subaru kneels in front of the kids, like to get at
- 11:52their level, and It's like, what do you think, Petra? Do
- 11:56you refuse to ride in the same carriage as she does? And Amelia like
- 12:00shuts her eyes and winces like waiting to hear that everyone hates her, and
- 12:05Petra's like, of course not. Anime he is like what, and Petra
- 12:09says, aren't you the o cham with the potato stamps, the one that
- 12:13came with Subrou to watch our radiocalisthenics. Anime is like well, and Petra
- 12:18says, we couldn't see your face, but we saw you having a good
- 12:22time and talking with Suburu. And then Petra reaches out her hand and says,
- 12:26come and ride with us, and then all the kids, one at
- 12:28a time, are like, yeah, come on, it'll be good.
- 12:31Ride with us. Random woman person and Amelia smiles and eventually takes one of
- 12:37their hands, and Subru is looking on at this and realizes Petra is staring
- 12:43at him and she smiles, and Amelia says, Ram, take care of
- 12:48things of the sanctuary, be sure to protect the villagers, and Ram tells
- 12:52her to take care as well, and Amelia says, I need to thank
- 12:56you too, and turns her head and realizes that Suber is not there anymore,
- 13:01and she's like, where did he go? And Ram size, so
- 13:05now we are on a hill overlooking the village with some dude and a couple
- 13:09occultists standing near him, and he opens like this locket thing. It looks
- 13:13like a kind of looks like a makeup compact, you know, like one
- 13:16of those things you open, it has like a mirror on the inside and
- 13:18you can put like blush on or something. At least I think that's what
- 13:22those kind of things are. I don't wear any makeup, but that's what
- 13:24it looks like. And it's gold. Now you know what it is.
- 13:28And the thing glows blue for a second and he smiles, and then Subaru,
- 13:35who's off screen, says, now I get it, and the guy
- 13:39looks surprised, and Suber is like, we couldn't figure out how you guys
- 13:41stayed in touch. Those media sure are handy, huh. The guy looks
- 13:46over and Subaru is behind him, and Subru says, you owe a heavy
- 13:50price for the crime of interrupting my touching reunion with Amelia, and he takes
- 13:54down his hood for some reason, and the guy takes out a knife and
- 13:56packs away, and he's like, you're I don't know what he was gonna
- 14:00say, and then blood errupts around him and we see that Wilhelm has slain
- 14:05the cultists and has a sword at this guy's throat now and Wilhelm's like too
- 14:09slow. And then also Felix and Julius are there and the guy drops his
- 14:13knife and Julius shoves him to the ground and like holds him down and subrou
- 14:18grabs that little makeup compact thing and is like, in short, we knew
- 14:22you were a spy. How we learned is a trade secret? Yeah,
- 14:26it really is. So we set a trap for you. The contact or
- 14:28the witch's cold and the guy looks like really shocked, I guess, and
- 14:33Suber's like two hours. You gave your buddies a schedule that's two hours behind.
- 14:37We'll use that time to get Amelia and the others away, crush the
- 14:41fingers who know our location, and make preparations to crush this in Archbishop,
- 14:45having your enemies a step ahead ready to destroy you, You're about to learn
- 14:48how terrifying that is. So hold up, like, you shouldn't tell your
- 14:52enemies your plans personally, Suber, And it's gonna be okay in this case,
- 14:58but like, come on, you ne to tell him that. So
- 15:01now we go to Amelia and the kids and they're in the wagon and they're
- 15:03about to leave, and Amelia to like the people outside the wagon. I
- 15:07guess the people who are staying to like fight and stuff is like, may
- 15:11the blessing of the spirits be with you, and then they move out,
- 15:15and Wilhelm leaves with them, actually and wishes everybody good luck. And I
- 15:18guess at this point, Subreu has taken off the cloak because Amelia left,
- 15:22and Felix is looking at it and he's like, this is what enabled you
- 15:26to trick Amelia and chase her off, and Super is like, don't put
- 15:30it that way, even if it's accurate, it makes me sound bad.
- 15:33And Julius says that robe was woven out of quite an odd spell, and
- 15:37Suber says it was handmade by Roswall. Apparently the spell woven into it prevents
- 15:41recognition it was originally Amelia's. Okay, so now we know for sure that's
- 15:46what's happening. And there's like a pause, and Julius and Felix are staring
- 15:50at him, and Super's like, hey, I didn't steal it. I
- 15:54believe she threw it at him when they were having their argument, and that's
- 15:58why he has it, and Felix is like, hm, well, the
- 16:02plan to correct the mistake with the blank letter worked out, and then we
- 16:04see kind of like a flashback, and Ram is like standing in the forest
- 16:07and using her powers I guess where she can see through like bugs and shit
- 16:11in the forest, and she sees Suberu and I think, like Felix riding
- 16:15through the forest and they're carrying a sign, and she says, the letter
- 16:19was a mistake and it was my fault. And then we go back to
- 16:22the present and Felix says, you work so hard to convince the villagers,
- 16:27and Suberu blushes, and then we have a flashback to Superu like on the
- 16:32ground, bowing like Solow that he's on the ground and his head is on
- 16:34the ground and his head is like dirt on it because it's that's how low
- 16:37he's bowing, which is I guess a big deal. And suber is like,
- 16:41please, Amelia's she's a girl who'll be friends with all of you.
- 16:45I just want to give her a chance to convince you. I'm sure everyone
- 16:48has a lot to say, but please let us protect you long enough that
- 16:52you get that chance. And then that guy who like always chimes in from
- 16:56the village, who I actually think just might be the chief I just didn't
- 17:00or forgot. He sighs, and he's like, man, you really are
- 17:03hopeless, Subero, and he walks over and he reaches out his hand to
- 17:06help Subaru up from the ground and says, if you insist on protecting us
- 17:10so much, what choice do we have? And then we see an old
- 17:14couple who are like kind of crying because they're happy, and Suberu has tears
- 17:18in his eyes and he's like, thank you everyone, and the old guy's
- 17:22like, we should be thanking you, Subaru sama. And then we go
- 17:25back to now and Felix says, you actually moved me, and super is
- 17:30like, don't bring that up. It's embarrassing, and Felix like chuckles and
- 17:33it's like that just leaves. And then Riccardo rides up and he's holding his
- 17:37big sword and it's all bloody, and Felix like asks how it went,
- 17:41and Ricardo says, we pulled off a surprise attack on the ones our location
- 17:45was leaked to. If I messed up, I'll retire. The map did
- 17:49a nice job show in the way, and suber is like, then that
- 17:52mark on the map really was the base and Ricardo says, I don't know
- 17:56if i'd call them fastidious or high strung, but it worked against them,
- 18:00and he throws that like locket thing to Suber, the media, to Subaru
- 18:06and says, we've got what we're after. This should shut down the communications
- 18:11network. At that point, the rest of the mercenaries right up, and
- 18:14Mimi's like, hooray, we killed them all, and Timmy says, don't
- 18:18say that, it makes us sound awful. We took a prisoner too,
- 18:21and subers like prisoner. And we see a log, you know, horizontal,
- 18:26and there's a guy like tied to it, like you know, if
- 18:30you're gonna do like a pig roast or something sort of, and it's Otto,
- 18:33Oh my god, and Suber's like he's not from the cult. And
- 18:37then to Otto says, I wondered why you hadn't shown up. You were
- 18:41caught, and the wolves like drop Auto and the piece of wood in front
- 18:45of Subaru, and Super laughs, and Otto of course doesn't understand what's going
- 18:48on. Nobody does, and Auto's like, I don't know who you are,
- 18:52but thanks for saving me. Actually, I'm in no mood to say
- 18:55and mean that right now. Damn it and Suber laughs, and I understand
- 19:00why he's laughing, but it must seem real weird to everyone else. So
- 19:04then we're in a new scene and everyone is together and Julius to everyone says
- 19:08everything's ready, and then to Subro says we can leave it anytime, and
- 19:12Suber nods, and he's like, let's do this. We'll begin as planned
- 19:18now this time will finish it. Let's show both faded Sloth what we can
- 19:22do. Yeah, and then we cut to Beetlejuice standing in front of the
- 19:26stone temple place thing, which now I realized is maybe like a weird rocky
- 19:30cave structure. I really don't know what this is. But Suber is standing
- 19:36a ways back from Beetlejuice and they're staring at each other, and Beetlejuice says,
- 19:41I've been waiting for you, believer in love. I am a sin
- 19:44archbishop of the witch Is Cult representing Sloth. Beetlejuice Romani Conti di Suber walks
- 19:51over and says, pleasure to meet you, great sin archbishop. If you
- 19:55could find it within you to add my body and soul to your fingers ranks
- 19:57carrying out the ordeal, there would be no greater honor. Beetlejuice looks.
- 20:03I thought he looked frightened at this, but I don't think that's what it
- 20:07was. I don't know what it was. And he says, how wondrous,
- 20:10how vivacious your faith is to think there was such a devout believer,
- 20:14And he starts banging his head into the wall, and he's like, please
- 20:17forgive my sloth for failing to find him. As he's banging his head,
- 20:21he's saying, forgive me, forgive me, forgive me, forgive me,
- 20:22forgive me. And Super's like, please stop, Archbishop, and Beetlejuice is
- 20:27like, ah, but but but I have no other way to atone for
- 20:30my sloth than foolishness. Then by punishment, and Super's like, that's not
- 20:36true. The witch wouldn't want to see her beloved and pain. She'd be
- 20:38happier to see you carry out the ordeal. And Beetlejuice gasps and is like,
- 20:42you're exactly right, yes, the ordeal. What she needs from me
- 20:47now is the ordeal. And he jumps down from like the stone thing that
- 20:52he's standing on and lands next to Suberoo and says, your words have opened
- 20:55my eyes and he like embraces him, like hugs him tightly and is like,
- 20:59thank you, thank you. With this ordeal, we must test her
- 21:03to learn if this half devil is a worthy vessel. What if she's worthy
- 21:07to put the witch into? Oh shit, that's what they want to do
- 21:10to Amelia. And Super's like vessel, and Beetle juw says, if she
- 21:15is the witch, will possess her, if not reject her. If she
- 21:18proves an unworthy vessel, then the witch will be reborn into this world on
- 21:22the coming faded day. Oh shit. And Super's like, you're saying Amelia
- 21:26is secondary without intrinsic value to you, and he makes a fist and he's
- 21:32like you monster. And they finally stop hugging because they've been hugging all this
- 21:36time, and beetle Juice says, the words inscribed in the Gospel tell of
- 21:40her love. All of it guides my path. And he turns his head
- 21:44like super unnaturally to the side, and it's like, show me your gospel.
- 21:48And Super shows him that communicator media thing and Beadle's like, huh,
- 21:53what's this And Super opens it and it has like a mirror inside, and
- 21:59he says when it looks like a media and then Felix appears in the mirror
- 22:03like it's the screen, and he says, oh, I see him,
- 22:07I see him. His face is just as ugly as i'd heard, and
- 22:10Beetlejuice says, who exactly are you? And then he jumps back and he's
- 22:15like, no, what are you? And Felix says, well, then
- 22:18tora, tora, tora. I don't know what the torres were for,
- 22:21but that's okay, and Suber snaps his fingers and Patrasie runs over and he
- 22:26like headbuts Beetlejuice and people just flies back and like hits the ground, and
- 22:30Super says, our surprise attack was a success, and Beetlejuice like gets up
- 22:34and is like what surprise attack? Surprise attack? What do you think of
- 22:40this? And then the unseen hand shoot out of him and they're like hiding
- 22:42for Suber, and Subaru gets on Patrasie and he evades the hands, and
- 22:48Beetlejuice is like, how how can you see my authority? And Suber is
- 22:52like, who knows? Asks the wish that left her sent all over me?
- 22:56Oh that's right, unlike me, you haven't received the pass that lets
- 22:59you meet anytime, and Beetlejuics is like, what do you mean, how
- 23:03dare you speak as if you were intimate with the witch? And Suber says,
- 23:07we're so close, she's grabbed my heart and then he winks and says
- 23:12literally, and Beetle Juice is like inconceivable, and he like sticks all of
- 23:18his fingers in his mouth and bites him and he's like this cannot be and
- 23:22then he lets out the unseen hands again, and Suber's like, let's go,
- 23:26Patracie, and they take off, so they're like run in and then
- 23:30like the hands are like flying through the air holding Beetlejuice like they're not attached
- 23:33to him, which really strange. I don't know what's going on here,
- 23:37and Beetle Juice is like, don't presume you can escape, and cultists appear
- 23:42like behind Suber and Patrasee and Supers like he's here, he's here, is
- 23:47here, he's coming coming, He's coming, keep it up, Atroche,
- 23:49and the hands are gaining on him, and beople Choice is like futile,
- 23:53impossible, vanish in the face of my diligence, And there are explosions like
- 23:59throughout the forest as I guess, like the hands are hitting like trees and
- 24:02shit as superu avoids them, and Super says, I'm sorry to always rely
- 24:06on you. You're the best Patrasche, and Beetlejuice says, but but but
- 24:11this is the end, the end, And then the Mercenary show up yay,
- 24:15and Mimi and Tivvy like sound blasts on the cultists, but like they
- 24:19almost hit Suber, and Suber's like, you guys almost caught me in that
- 24:23Thank you, though I thought I was a goner. And Mimi's like,
- 24:27you're welcome, yay, And Tivvy says, is that man in the sky
- 24:32the sin archbishop? And we see that Beetlejuice is like in the air and
- 24:37he just kind of looks like he's sitting there and flying because no one can
- 24:40see his hands. And Mimi's like, wow, what's that. There's a
- 24:45man flying all balled up. Wow, And Tivvy says, I've never seen
- 24:51anything so creepy in flight, and Super is like, that's what it looks
- 24:55like to you guys. Either way, leave him to me, watch the
- 24:57rear like we planned, and Tivvy's like, got it. You heard him
- 25:02on e chan and Mimi says aye aye, and then Suber says, Onnissan
- 25:06beat him now, and you look awesome. And Suber's like, yeah,
- 25:08I got this. Bring it on, Archbishop Yeah, and Beetle Juice is
- 25:14like, what just what are you? This can't be None of this is
- 25:18in the Gospel, in the Guide to My Destiny. What just what are
- 25:22you? And Suber says, you've asked me that question four times. If
- 25:27we're talking about nightmares, I've had far more than enough of you. And
- 25:33Beetle Juice is like, then, then then you truly are prides, and
- 25:37Suber says, my name is Naski Subaru, the silver haired half elf Amelia's
- 25:41night Yeah, and beal Juice like screeches, and Super is like, I
- 25:48don't know anything about this pride stuff, but that's the only title I want.
- 25:52And then they reached the bottom of that place with the jagged rocks and
- 25:56Subaru fell to his death when he killed himself a while back, and Beetle
- 26:00Juice is like, this place is and Super's like, it's a place where
- 26:03my time once ended. See what did I say? And he gets off
- 26:07of Patrosha and says, and it'll be where your time ends too, and
- 26:11Beetlejuice gets down from the unseen hands that he's been flying around on and Super
- 26:15says, that's what this place is. And Beetlejuice is like, if your
- 26:19goal was to lead me out here, what have you prepared for me?
- 26:22And Super is like, what else your natural enemy one you and I have
- 26:27in common? And I was like trying to figure out what their natural enemy
- 26:32was for a second, but it doesn't matter because Beetlejuice looks up to the
- 26:34cliff above and he gasps, it's Julius, their natural enemy, I guess
- 26:41sort of. And Julius is like natural enemy, now, that's a fine
- 26:45thing to call me. And Julius kind of like glows and jumps down really
- 26:49well, and he's like, I am Julius Euclius, one of the Lagunica
- 26:56Imperial Nights, and he raises his sword and says, I am the Kingdom's
- 27:00sword that will slay you, and beatle Juice is like a spirit arts user,
- 27:03huh, how truly? How truly? Is this also part of your
- 27:07plot? I've never known such humiliation And Sue is like, really, well,
- 27:11make the most of it. That's your bill for what you've done.
- 27:15Let's do it, Julius. And Julius is like, are you sure,
- 27:18and Super nods and says, I won't back down. I won't bend.
- 27:23I can't lose. I don't want to lose anyone else. And Julius is
- 27:26like, and Julius is like, I'm the man who brutally beat you.
- 27:30I still believe my behavior was backed by reason, but that's no more than
- 27:34self justification, which has nothing to do with you. He's a pretty good
- 27:38guy. And then his sword glows and he says, can you trust me?
- 27:44And Super says I hate you, and Julius says, yeah, I
- 27:48know, and Suber is like, having someone break your arms and legs like
- 27:51that is traumatic, don't you know the meaning of restraint? And Julia says,
- 27:56just so you know, I did hold back quite a bit, like
- 28:00that was you holding back? You really are the biggest jerk. I really
- 28:03hate you. Greatest Night. Oh he's the greatest Night. So I will
- 28:08trust you. My shame attests to my knowledge that you're an incredible night.
- 28:14And Julius says, then with all my soul, and he raises his sword
- 28:17and it like lights up like a lot a lot of light, and he
- 28:18says, I shall live up to that. And beatleju says like, is
- 28:22this farce over yet? I know they've just been standing there talking while you
- 28:26patiently wait for them to kill you. And he continues, what do you
- 28:30expect? Adding a single spirit arts user to your ranks will do? And
- 28:34the hands come out and they close in, and he's like, I will
- 28:37defeat you all tear aparthos who remain and resume the ordeal. And that is
- 28:42all my diligence knows, neither slothful resignation nor demise slot slow slot, And
- 28:48he like goes for Julius with his hands, and Julius says, all clarista
- 28:52or something, and the hands then encapsulate Julius like surround him like, and
- 29:00Beetlejuice like snickers, and then suddenly a light pokes through the ball of hands
- 29:06and Julius cuts them away, and Beetle Juice is like, you you should
- 29:10not be able to see it. It should be invisible to you. My
- 29:12unseen hands can't be seen. You can't see it, and by two two
- 29:18people other than me, and Suber is like, I'm actually the only one
- 29:21who can see it, and Beetle Juice is like huh, and super says,
- 29:26Julius can see what I'm seeing. It feels so much creepier than expected.
- 29:30And Julius says, I can use neck to consciously share your senses as
- 29:34well as maintain them for a while. When you first propose this, I
- 29:38questioned your sanity, and Suber is like it worked, though. A man's
- 29:42all about guts. You gotta be open to anything. And Julius kind of
- 29:45like cuffs and smiles and Beetlejuice says, curse you, curse you, curse
- 29:51you, curse you, cursh you, curse you, curse you, maybe
- 29:53cursed you, and then he extends his hands again, like real real high
- 29:56and stuff, and they're like long and they're like hitting into the and Julius
- 30:00and Subro kind of like shield themselves because it's like really windy from all the
- 30:03stuff being blown around from the unseen hands, and Suber's like sharing a collective
- 30:08body with you is starting to get pretty gross. Let's get this over with,
- 30:12and Julius says, yes, let's and he's like slicing the hands and
- 30:18then he says, using your eyes, I shall slay him. And then
- 30:21a really big hand is like coming at him and Julius slices through it and
- 30:25Julius says, my friend Natzki Subaru, and then we go to the title
- 30:30card and that's it. Yay. So closing thoughts, what I really want
- 30:34to talk about is something that I think has done so fucking well. We
- 30:37have a main character that doesn't like someone, and I love that in this
- 30:42situation. Julius is a pretty good guy. Honestly, he's in some ways
- 30:48like a better person than sumer who is honestly, and suber Like basically started
- 30:55not liking him because he thought that there was some competition between Julius and him
- 31:00or Amelia's affection, and it's just kind of spiraled out of control since then.
- 31:03And yeah, Julius did like really really hurt him and stuff when they
- 31:07were like dueling, but I still kind of blame Subaru for most of that.
- 31:11I mean, Julius is responsible too, but a lot of it,
- 31:15most of it is on Suberu. So it's interesting to have this character that
- 31:19the main character does not like but is actually a pretty decent person. And
- 31:26I mean, you may have thoughts in earlier episodes maybe he's not, but
- 31:30all we've seen in this arc is that Julius is a super caring, nice,
- 31:37diligent individual. He really really cares what happens to Subaru. He didn't
- 31:41want to kill him in the last loop. It was just too much for
- 31:45him. Like, he's a good guy, and he has been willing to
- 31:49work and stand beside Subaru even though they've had their differences. I mean,
- 31:53both of them have been willing to work with each other, which is really
- 31:57really cool. And it shows a lot of girl both for Subrou and for
- 32:00Julius. It's really nice to see that. I'm just really proud of the
- 32:06writing of this show to, you know, have that happen. It's really
- 32:10well done in my opinion. So yeah, I like this. And I
- 32:15had been meaning to talk about Julius and Subaru for a while and I just
- 32:17keep forgetting in every episode. So I think this was a good spots because
- 32:22now they are truly working together and truly trusting each other, and they should
- 32:28be. They're both good people who had an argument that was stupid basically.
- 32:31So yeah, I'm super psyched about this. And we only have one episode
- 32:37left, which is pretty amazing. So that'll be next week and then I'm
- 32:42taking a break and hopefully I will start up in the spring, at the
- 32:46beginning of spring season, and I'm probably doing Tokyo Revengers unless something else comes
- 32:52along that sounds like a better idea. I think I'm gonna do like a
- 32:54test first episode that I mean, I won't publish it until I actually start
- 32:59doing the seas and then just to see if I want to do Tokyo Revengers.
- 33:02But if I change my mind, I'll like pop back in for like
- 33:06a little short episode during the break and say like, hey, I'm actually
- 33:08doing this instead. So that's I don't know, man, that's things whatever.
- 33:14So anyway, that's the episode and we get to find out what happens
- 33:19between them and Beetlejuice next week, and yeah, that should be fun or
- 33:22something. Maybe not, everything's bad something I don't know, But anyway,
- 33:28I'm gonna go and see if I can use a what's that thing where you
- 33:31have like a hammer and like a pick, and I'm gonna try to pick
- 33:35the ice off of my front steps so people don't trip and kill themselves and
- 33:40I will see you next time unless I die trying to get this stuff off
- 33:45my stairs, and in that case, bye forever. But anyway, have
- 33:51a good whatever, and uh see ya, bye bye,
