What's up y'all? And welcome back to Danny's to
0:07
talk, I'm your host, Robert. And today we're going to be
0:10
talking about a recent release simply named shy.
0:17
Now shy is a series that the author of it is a bikini Mickey
0:25
and it is published by Yen press in English who has provided me
0:31
with adrc for it. So, Shy.
0:36
So, this is a series that been on my radar.
0:42
I guess, pretty much sense. Since it was announced that this
0:44
volume was going to be coming out.
0:47
And I remember back when that info first came, a lot of people
0:52
are just, I always it's my hero but with just a, a female MC but
0:58
after Having read this first volume.
1:03
And even even back when his first announced, I had kind of
1:06
took a peek at a few more chapters Beyond what's in this
1:10
volume. But I feel like just saying, oh,
1:14
it's my hero with a female protagonist doesn't really do it
1:19
proper service because while I guess for me, the only like like
1:27
real similarity is just that In the world of shy.
1:34
Just like my hero. It's just hey randomly one day
1:37
people had superpowers, but that's pretty much it because
1:43
unlike my hero and shy, there doesn't seem to be this crazy
1:48
oversaturation of Heroes and stuff.
1:53
And so, some for at least like, in this first volume, we only
1:59
really get introduced to light like, A small amount of
2:04
characters that actually have powers and stuff.
2:07
The kind of like, first Bunch, we kind of get introduced to is
2:11
the American hero and this is kind of just more through like
2:14
the initial Monologue of the setup of the world and what
2:22
happened to her is like the word was kind of like on the brink of
2:25
a third world war, when Heroes people with powers started
2:31
emerging from different countries, around the world.
2:35
And so the few that they mentioned up front is the
2:38
American hero Century, the Russian hero Spirits, which I
2:42
like her and the British rock star hero Stardust now Now,
2:49
these are just like a few, they kind of introduced earlier
2:52
front. And then, of course our Japanese
2:55
hero, who is on the cover shy. Now, most of these other Heroes
3:02
that they've shown so far, they're all for flashed, adults,
3:06
grown grown adults. By shy, is actually only 14.
3:11
So she's still in high school. She still Figuring this stuff
3:15
out and her real name is Terror. Ooh, Momo geometry, Terror.
3:23
Mama Jama. And so, the reason why she has
3:27
her name is because she is legit shy.
3:31
She kind of reminds me a little bit of Sue letter for anybody.
3:37
That is watching Gundam which from Mercury that's currently
3:43
airing right now. So kind of like that can like
3:46
shop personality but with a heart of gold type of character,
3:51
but, um, but yeah. But pretty much this first
3:53
volume. It just kind of just an
3:55
introductory to these characters into this world.
3:58
And we've kind of start off with seeing shy tackle.
4:02
A couple of different problems that and stuff that's going on
4:07
in Japan though, there was like a really big incident involving
4:11
a derailing roller coaster where one person got hurt.
4:18
And so because of that guilt ended up having a negative side
4:25
effect on shy because we kind of find out that the heroes in this
4:30
world. They were these like bracelets
4:32
on both of the risks that they kind of like double tap together
4:37
to activate their powers or to awaken their powers.
4:39
But The powers only awaken if your heart is in it.
4:46
And so because of this situation, shy is feeling she's
4:52
feeling bad. She's feeling horrible.
4:53
She's feeling responsible for this person getting hurt.
4:56
Despite you know, she did save them still alive and well but
5:00
she still feels guilty for them getting hurt in the first place
5:03
and so she's double tapping but nothing nothing is happening.
5:09
She's not able to transform. A.
5:11
So this kind of is her to like kind of being in my a for like I
5:15
think I think it was like some months weeks if not months and
5:24
this series of these. I like the way the kind of world
5:27
I stuff is kind of set up. It also kind of reminds me of
5:29
kind of like a mix of kind of like the Justice League because
5:34
the heroes have a frickin base and outer space.
5:39
That is floating. Around the planet kind of like
5:42
what the Justice League have. But yeah but but and I don't
5:50
know if I were because because part of me wants to say that it
5:53
kind of has like small hints of like some potentially like
5:58
darker tones but not as dark and it's like not yet of like stuff.
6:05
Like the boys and investable that there might be like on like
6:10
the for extreme end of this. Bactrim.
6:13
But from the Libby, I saw in this volume and likes a little
6:15
bit that I had kind of like, so little bit beyond this, there is
6:19
some danger, there is some action.
6:21
There is some some, some brutal violence from time to time
6:26
Black's. I don't think it goes all the
6:28
way there. So maybe like, you know, like
6:30
sit somewhere between like the Justice League and those other
6:33
two that I had mentioned. They knew so this volume, like I
6:37
said, we're just going to just continue to follow shy as
6:40
Journey. Me and she threw out this volume
6:44
kind of slowly. See her meeting more characters,
6:47
making friends and stuff, getting better acquainted with
6:51
some of the other Heroes and kind of of course starts to
6:56
Basically figure out more of herself.
6:59
And with that being said, because the word is kind of more
7:03
or less, seems like it's been at peace for the most part since
7:05
the emergence of Heroes. But in the last year or so,
7:10
there has been this new character.
7:13
That's kind of like popping up here and there who goes by the
7:16
name of a stigma. He kind of looks like a young
7:20
boy, but he's basically like a dark entity that feeds on
7:26
basically, the negative thoughts and emotions and a person's
7:30
heart, and they kind of manifest and kind of like these, like,
7:35
Crazy crystallized deformities on the person's body.
7:41
And so through this situation or whatever, they basically end up
7:46
getting there, the heroes end up getting their hands.
7:49
Thanks to shy on a crucial piece of evidence, to kind of help
7:53
them, maybe start to trying to piece together.
7:57
Who is this, dude? What is going on?
8:00
We know what other dangers are coming and that's kind of where
8:04
the volume kind of is off. Because we kind of get, you
8:09
know, the heroes coming together, like, said, thanks to
8:12
shy getting this crucial piece of evidence and we kind of see
8:18
the like in the next volume, we're going to see shy going
8:22
through some very grueling training from one of the other
8:26
Pro Heroes. And so I like how all the heroes
8:30
that we meet so far, all have different personalities and
8:34
stuff. Like I said of course shy is
8:35
shy. The Russian hero Spirit.
8:38
She is very as her name, you know, suggest very well spirited
8:43
because she's always drinking the British hero.
8:47
He's other one we kind of get like a really good.
8:49
Look at it whatever he is like an all-around legit rock star
8:53
where he's always traveling around the world doing charity
8:56
stuff or whatever. But he also seems like he might
8:58
have a little bit more serious and darker vibe to him as well.
9:03
And we also get reduced. This character named a unit
9:06
Lord, who is kind of like the managers and the right word, a
9:12
coordinator, she is kind of like the coordinator flight, the
9:15
heroes and all the efforts so she more or less kind of always
9:19
stays in. Like the little home-based thing
9:22
up in and outside of the orbit and stuff sub.
9:27
Yeah, so shy, this is a pretty cool first read.
9:32
I am different interested in checking out more of it and
9:36
while we don't have a date for you, there is a anime that is
9:39
announced for this coming. And I'm excited, because I said
9:44
Longworth what I've read, the anime will be done by 8-bit
9:48
studio, and if you do not know who 8-bit studio is they, this
9:53
your recently. They have done the reincarnated
9:56
as a Ah Madame a they are currently doing bluelock the
9:59
soccer anime and all slightly harder one that I remember
10:06
enjoying the first season of years ago was she what was it
10:12
called? A irregular at Magics High
10:14
School? The Irregular at Magic High
10:17
School bully. That's what it was called.
10:19
But yeah. So a bit studio is going to be
10:21
doing the anime whenever it drops.
10:23
Like I said right now we don't have a set date on.
10:27
It yet. But I am always done to see more
10:31
hero stuff. Like say, I am down to see more
10:34
of this character and see what other stuff happens, farther
10:39
down the line. Because I think I think the
10:41
manga for this I think is maybe like 12 plus volumes deep now
10:46
over in Japan because it came out in 2019.
10:49
So it's been going for a few years over there.
10:50
Even though we're just now seeing it here but So this one
10:55
has some hope. Like I said, it is definitely
10:59
way more than just a, my hero thing likes.
11:03
I won't even really even mention that too much as a comparison
11:08
like I said for, for all the variety of reasons that I
11:10
mentioned earlier stuff. So but yeah, my shy is dope and
11:15
I look forward to seeing what other Shenanigans and stuff that
11:20
this character gets into, as well as like one.
11:24
She And of like gets more confidence and starts to like
11:27
really get to tap into her powers and abilities and stuff.
11:33
So because like so with the word kind of been at peace for a
11:35
while she hasn't really and plus she hasn't really had a like a
11:39
mentor. Nothing really to kind of show
11:40
her the ropes. She just been kind of just
11:42
figuring it out as figuring things out, as she goes.
11:47
But like I said with her now kind of getting acquainted with
11:50
the other heroes from around the world, and a friend that she X
11:54
as well in this chapter, I think she's better start making some
11:58
strides in transforming and like truly tapping into were her
12:04
powers and abilities can be so. But with that being said, like I
12:09
said, check out shy. It is a pretty dope series.
12:15
She had just come out like shrimp looking psychic thing.
12:20
Name video. So when you So shout too shy.
12:26
And last little thing I want to mention is well cuz I talk about
12:29
this all the time I enjoy when Arthur was kind of like, give
12:33
like some end of volume thoughts, as I love like how at
12:38
the end of this volume, the author wrote a handwritten
12:42
message to the back of the volume.
12:44
He's like I'm you know, if you're wondering why this has
12:46
been handwritten. It's because I have a huge
12:48
complex about my poor writing and other words.
12:51
It's a message to myself to say from this point on I won't be
12:54
afraid of being embarrassed, instead.
12:57
I'll go ahead and he merely humiliate myself a bunch.
13:01
That's what I've decided to do. And he thanks a bunch of people
13:05
for supporting him. And so it just kind of sweet
13:09
that it seems like the author himself seems to have some a
13:14
little bit of shy shyness with him as well.
13:18
So, but like I said, check out Shah likes a volume one, should
13:23
already be out. And by the time y'all are
13:25
hearing this, and we'll see what the future holds for the next
13:29
volume as well as whenever the anime drops.
13:33
So as always, thank you so much for watching and listening.
13:36
Let me know what you thought of this volume and I'll catch you
13:41
on the next one. Peace.
