  What's up y'all? And welcome back to Danny's to
• 0:08
  talk. I'm your host, Robert.
• 0:10
  And today, today, we're talking about Lucille Toki rhetoric.
• 0:15
  Now this is a slightly older series that just recently got a
• 0:22
  English print. So the story art is done by
• 0:27
  ritsu Miyako and it is published by one piece books.
• 0:33
  So, This series, like I said, it's a little bit older series
• 0:38
  of ran from and it's already finished in Japan.
• 0:41
  So it ran from 2012 to 2018 or cross 10 volumes, 50 chapters in
• 0:45
  terminal. So pretty short series, which
• 0:48
  hey I enjoy science or some those from time to time but the
• 0:54
  thing that grabbed my attention on it is of course y'all know.
• 0:57
  First thing is a intriguing cover and A unique name, but the
• 1:08
  basics up and premise for the story is that it follows this
• 1:12
  young girl, who's on the cover named kanako Rabe, who she's 16
• 1:17
  years old. This takes place in the early
• 1:20
  1920s or I guess the late 1920s, 1926 doing during the showa era
• 1:28
  in Japan. And the very interesting thing
• 1:31
  about Rabe is that she can hear lies and what I mean by that is
• 1:39
  that when you speak a lie, it sounds different to her so that
• 1:45
  it's that way she's able to distinguish when somebody's
• 1:47
  lying or not. And of course, somebody young
• 1:51
  having this ability, it's going to cause some problems and so
• 1:56
  pretty much she ends up. So when she was younger, she
• 2:01
  ends up pretty much telling everybody like.
• 2:03
  Yeah, I can tell when you're lying and edited, ER, but of
• 2:05
  course, that causes problems for her, promise for her family, her
• 2:10
  mother's getting death threats and no, it's like hey, leave
• 2:14
  this town be gone. So I robbed a decides, you know
• 2:18
  what? I don't want to cause any more
• 2:19
  trouble, I'ma just leave and go find.
• 2:23
  Somewhere new to stay, where nobody would know me and all her
• 2:28
  journey to find somewhere new. She ends up meeting our other
• 2:32
  main character named Soma ey, who happens to be a detective.
• 2:37
  Now, those two elements alone was enough to Intrigue me of
• 2:43
  having, like I said, as young lady who can hear lies, and then
• 2:47
  she has a meeting this detective and things kind of go from there
• 2:52
  to where You know, she is up eventually becoming his
• 2:56
  assistant and helping him on cases, as so, so far in this
• 3:02
  first volume, which I think it was like four chapters I believe
• 3:05
  in this first volume, but they're all very long chapters
• 3:08
  is about. It's about Custer 200-page
• 3:12
  volume, but I did enjoy the couple of cases that they want
• 3:21
  on just because of the situations that they were in and
• 3:27
  how they got resolved, because slight spoiler.
• 3:30
  But the detective he ends up finding out about her ability,
• 3:36
  but he is a type of, you know, what, our kind of put him in the
• 3:41
  same, maybe not 100% but kind of slightly in the same.
• 3:47
  Realm as like a chute. What is this name?
• 3:52
  The shoot. Why am I black on his name?
• 4:00
  Reagan from Mob psycho. No, not 100% because this dude,
• 4:05
  legit. He legit has the skills.
• 4:07
  He claimed he has, but he's kind of a show-off.
• 4:12
  He character in some aspects and he loves him some money.
• 4:17
  And so of course he's using her. He's a her abilities kind of
• 4:21
  like Reagan is with Mom to get some money and stuff.
• 4:27
  But you know like I said, He asked this guy actually does
• 4:31
  have the detective skills to back up.
• 4:34
  What he comes in what he does. And so please do so far like to
• 4:39
  do this first wrong, we're just kind of these characters just
• 4:42
  kind of like first meeting each other and US kind of getting a
• 4:46
  mix of some silly moments, but also some serious Mama sent
• 4:50
  mixed in there as well. Because I went when troubles a
• 4:53
  foot and there's extra, some cases to solve things.
• 4:56
  Do get serious in the characters.
• 4:58
  Do tip, do take the cases. You seriously.
• 5:01
  But there is just some funny light-hearted moments along the
• 5:04
  way, you know, like like the guy using the girl to kind of like
• 5:12
  wholesome people on the street corner.
• 5:14
  Basically, doing the whole like hey, you know, which hand is the
• 5:18
  thing, is the thing you're holding in and you know, she
• 5:23
  kind of does like, a thing where her hands were is okay.
• 5:25
  If it's like, you know, one way it means you're lying and if
• 5:28
  it's another way means, They're telling the truth and so their
• 5:31
  poor little Shenanigans and stuff like that, but they end up
• 5:35
  being a very cool dynamic duo. And like I said, the couple of
• 5:39
  cases that they go on. We're both very interesting and
• 5:47
  heartwarming in some ways just because, you know, they aren't,
• 5:51
  you know, they aren't aiming to destroy these people that they
• 5:54
  are exposing per say at least like not in all the cases as so
• 6:00
  they have some compassion with certain situations because you
• 6:05
  know character might lie for because they're trying to avoid
• 6:10
  causing trouble for somebody else or they're trying to help
• 6:14
  out somebody but, you know, they trying to just trying to handle
• 6:17
  situation on their own and so you kind of have a situation to
• 6:20
  where it's like, okay on the surface is like, yes, they're
• 6:23
  lying but digging deeper into the motives of the person it's
• 6:30
  just very fascinating to see and just also with the detective e
• 6:36
  were also him kind of taking time to help around Bay kind of
• 6:42
  figure out her abilities and stuff for me because yes, people
• 6:45
  have known about her business up before, but they just
• 6:48
  immediately shun her or, or or try to avoid her.
• 6:53
  He's actually embracing her abilities and kind of like I
• 6:56
  said, like basically putting it putting them, putting them
• 7:00
  through Their Paces of like, okay?
• 7:05
  What things can you tell? If somebody is lying, okay, do
• 7:09
  you have to see the person? Do you have to be in the same
• 7:11
  room? Can they ask a question a
• 7:14
  certain way to where you would be able to tell and so, yeah.
• 7:17
  So like I said, it's just like a very interesting setup and I'm
• 7:22
  curious to see like, where things go from here.
• 7:24
  I'm like this, especially because it's not a super long
• 7:27
  series, and I don't really necessarily know, like if there
• 7:31
  is like a main goal per se, But, like I said, just follow these
• 7:35
  characters on her little adventures and stuff.
• 7:38
  Is something that I feel like it's worth checking out.
• 7:41
  So, like I said, oh, so Toki rhetoric from One Piece books
• 7:47
  and once again, written by ritsu Miyako likes, the older series
• 7:51
  but still very good. Oh, and of course, how could I
• 7:56
  forget to mention this series? Has some very pretty and
• 8:03
  detailed art that just like really stands out.
• 8:08
  Oops. Let me see if I can find that.
• 8:11
  This is like another page that I really enjoyed the art and stuff
• 8:18
  but yeah, so very beautiful Are wise and like I said, you're
• 8:24
  just some very curious setups and situations and stuff.
• 8:26
  So, but that's all I have for this one.
