bangsley
i've caught up reading mushoku to where we left off last episode after watching this one i'm going to go all the way to the end
Anno
I supppose it doesn't really need mentioning but as expected, Eighty Six is a recap episode this week The production staff brought it up on Twitter I think They knew they needed the time
Yuu
86 is recap this week isn't it yeah
okay
paladin mushoku mieruko kmoi jahy
kinda weird tonight since no 86
Yuu
paladin okay lets start
Anno
Hi sorry ready now You showing up a bit early threw my expectations off a bit hah hah
bangsley
oh we're going ready i
Anno
Spears are still cool weapons More anime protagonists ought to use spears
Anno
Plus Will's spear has some Monkey King shit going on so it's doubly cool
Anno
Man his undead family was really out in the absolute middle of nowhere Although with all the ruined cities I guess there was once some kind of nation here Maybe the hanging omen of the resting place of a Maou is enough to keep people from re-settling in it
Yuu
signs of civilization this is going to be a girl probably
Anno
Will seems to think it's a boy Although in Japanese he would be using gender-neutral langauge I figure
bangsley
NEVER TRUST ELVES
Yuu
oh yeah not an elf
Anno
Oh it's a half-elf So maybe you can half trust him
Anno
Meneldor is a very Tolkien-poi Elvish name
bangsley
oh i see menel IS the raiders isn't he
i know i said it never trust elves
oh yeah he gets it
Yuu
i had a feeling the sword going down on him looks like his in the vision
Anno
Will's probably had some pretty good anti-magic training from Blood
Anno
Will really feels like someone who is going to get taken advantage of before too long Surely not every human in this world are as noble as Blood and Mary were
Anno
Oh doubly so if he flaunts Gus' old fortune around like this
bangsley
he is definitely being ajust a tad bit naive, which is to be expected maybe this elf will help him there he seems like an edgelord elf
Anno
Cynical and naive is always a fun buddy cop duo anyway
bangsley
was that 20 minutes wow
Anno
It didn't really feel it, yeah
Yuu
yeah I enjoyed that episode this series has gotten pretty decent i was wondering how they'd handle it once the undead part was over
okay mushoku
okay lets start
Anno
It seems like there's a neat world out there to explore And I like Will, he seems like a nice guy
Ready when you are
bangsley
i don't know if you guys can tell but i really like mushoku the world is really interesting and i really like rudy, paul, and ruijerd and i really like how the story handles differing perspectives and emotions especially in regards to different emotional styles and levels of emotional intelligence interacting with eachother the characters just feel more real than i'm used to seeing in anime
also gisu is the best
bangsley
hahahaha yeah you're gonna have a hard time with that fight
Anno
Hah hah he got a consolation prize of a Ruijerd statue though
Yuu
They picked this up on a good note
bangsley
eris haet boat
Anno
Man boats out on the open ocean seem wild I want to experience that one day
Anno
Hah hah Ruijerd is a-okay out here on the boat
bangsley
i wonder if ghislaine is going to come back ranked higher than sword-king there's no way ghislaine is in trouble, right? yeah there's no way
Anno
It's too bad Ruijerd has to keep his head shaven He looks way better with even a bit of hair
bangsley
oh damn i wanna see ghisaline and ruijerd duel
Anno
I'm pretty sure Ghislaine would still win that one handily
bangsley
oh yeah it's horseman nokopara
Anno
Roxy's legs
bangsley
necessary shot
Anno
Absolutely
bangsley
what the roxy? u ok?
YuuAnno
I think she's got a hard time still dealing with the Superd Thinks they're the monsters of the children's stories she was told
bangsley
roxy's staff is really cool
Anno
Home sweet home I wonder how she'll react to the news that Rudy was here like two years ago
bangsley
being roxy is suffering
Yuu
I hope Roxy and Rudy can reuinte soon
bangsley
i can't imagine i'd make it 20 years like that before leaving but i guess the magic continent is kinda rough it must have been difficult for her to make it out of there alive
Anno
The way they convey her inability to pick up on it as the crackling noise is neat
Yuu
roxxy is being sullent and disagreeable
bangsley
being the only one who can't use telepathy in a village where everyone uses it to talk is probably pretty hard i don't think i'd be more agreeable
Anno
It's understandable the rest of the village might have a hard time manging it Managing it, even But you'd at least expect her family to know to cooperate with her inability to hear them
Yuu
She seems to be kinda a genius aat other types of stuff though.
bangsley
the telepathy thing is racial to the blue haired demons of her clan she was born defective i guess they didn't really say why she can't
Anno
Yeah, it's less about being a genius or not here, and more seems like a physical defect Like someone being deaf You can be all the genius you want but you won't just magically stop being deaf
Yuu
wow these last two episodes have been so good
Anno
Yeah That's two families which have made up with each other
Too bad Eris won't get a chance to!
bangsley
i have to watch that one scene again was it sauros who got beheaded? was phillip there? i don't remember at all
Anno
Here we go!
>>1000435 It was Sauros I was mostly joking Philip is probably at worst missing like a lot of the rest of the region
Yuu
Oh what a way to find out
bangsley
roxy can't believe it
Anno
Pft She's got her mom's blessing at least
bangsley
sorry rowin i don't think you're gonna win this one
bangsley
elinalise needs to chill out
Anno
I dunno I think she's free to sleep with who she likes in her free time
bangsley
i love this stoic dwarf >>1000442 her timing and location seems to involve people who don't want to be involved too often
bangsley
WAIT THAT WAS TWENTY MINUTES am i getting old what is happening to time
Anno
It just keeps slippin' Slippin'
bangsley
it's nice that we still see roxy sometimes she's definitely had very little screentime in comparison to other main characters so far we haven't seen or heard much about sylphie since forever though or anything about zenith at all poor paul ;_;
Yuu
roxy is the kind of character that could do well with a spinoff
meriuko okay lets start
Anno
Paul's been looking for Zenith, so that can only end with him finding her or her body Assuming the maid and Rudy's half-sibling were with her, which is what seems to have been the case, then I would assume they're all right I doubt they'd write off Rudy's half-sibling at the least
Sylphie though, who knows Maybe she died in the mana disaster
Ready for Mieruko
bangsley
>>1000447 she has a spinoff manga! or she's getting one? i haven't looked into, i just heard about it today
looks like there's 10 volumes and 6 have EN ISBN numbers maybe there's fan TLs for the rest
Anno
I've heard some chatter about the localized versions of Mushoku being not ... great They tweak some stuff to tone down on the lewdness, I think
bangsley
WHOA
bangsley
>>1000450 man i hate shit like that in general i just hate localization at all i just want straight up translation
Yuu
oh mieruko made an enemy
Anno
Probably in declaration only I don't think this girl is going to be an effective enemy
>>1000452 All good translation involves localization Straight up translation would make no grammatical sense and be syntax-ally confusing Not to mention passages in one language which flow nicely sound stilted and weird when you move them into another language Localization is as much making translations sound nice in their new language as it is tailoring the content to be culturally understandable
Anno
If you really just want the straight up original, learn the original language
bangsley
>>1000454 you aren't teaching anyone anything but my assumption that you knew what i meant by speaking broadly was way off the mark so i apologize for only my confidence
Anno
Unsurprisingly, there was something in the picture
>>1000456 Plenty of people have this assumption that all they need is the direct translation! I just don't think you'd enjoy it very much
Yuu
yeah every single picture is going to be horrifying
bangsley
>>1000457 i already feel like you have too many assumptions about my perspective to talk about this any further in fact i'm rather confident that we're mostly on the same page but your tendency to sound like a condescending contrarian asshole is triggering me pretty hard right now so i'm giving up on further discussion
Anno
>>1000458 The real trick will be keeping Yulia from freaking out about it Miko's got the practice to keep a straight face
Anno
>>1000459 I just don't understand why you get so upset about it It's the exact same tone and manner I take with everyone, even with you in voice calls I don't think I'm being contrarian, I'm just trying to make conversation
Anno
Miko already knows all the spooks are there though I guess this is what Yulia wanted
Anno
Very artistic.
bangsley
jesus christ how horrifying
Anno
Looks like it's one of the predatorial ones too
Yuu
wow something horrible is happening this time
Anno
They're both really misunderstanding each other
Yulia's weaker spirit sense is a bit weird You'd think she'd have a harder time seeing the mook spirits and the bigger ones would be visible to her But she can't seem to see the more powerful ones
bangsley
if only yulia knew she'd be having a panic attack
Anno
Oh maybe we'll finally see what Miko is so scared about About making sure they don't know she can see them
Ah nevermind the holy spirits are back to help
Yuu
Does she have divine protection now?
Anno
Last episode when the big holy spirit saved her, they said something like "three" or something, I think? So maybe she's good for three saves
idk if the first save counted so idk if they meant one more left or one more used
Anno
One finger each So I think it was supposed to be two
Yuu
oh she has three saves
Anno
When visuals first started coming out for this adaptation, I saw some people complaining about how the style ruined the eyes of the manga I think the anime did a pretty good job of the kind of distinct heavy lidded eyes for Miko and Julia But the faces are a bit dopier than in the manga
Anno
SPIRIT BARBEQUE
Yuu
I hope mieurko's suffering diminishes a bit
komi okay lets start
Anno
Having not read the manga up to the point where Julia shows up, I kinda expected her to be someone who could help her handle the spirits Instead we got a big baka who's only good for bullying
bangsleyAnno
That's still a pretty nice tagline for this series
Anno
Yadano Makeru Yada no makeru "Hates to lose"
Anno
And then Tadano was never heard from again
Anno
I'd like to see a pink moon some time
Anno
Chihuahua doesn't feel entirely accurate for Komi
Anno
Oh no they've turned Tadano into a talking desk
bangsley
this girl mis scarier than the ghosts in mieruko
Anno
It's hard to tell if Najimi is just being frank or knows something is up It's probably unusual for Tadano to be missing And Tadano is Najimi's childhood friend!
bangsley
uh UH UHHHHH
Anno
Man I wish that were me
Anno
Sasuga Nijimi
Anno
Najimi even
bangsley
this is legit creepy
Anno
Komi is such a serious and earnest person Hah hah Tadano and Najimi Or just Najimi It kinda looked like Tadano was there behind her too
Anno
>If you forgot about it, it's probably not important
Anno
Tadano please You were totally trying to sound cool there
Yuu
wow
Anno
She had a harder time with the words this time than when she was on the phone But still saying it in person -- even if behind a barrier -- is probably an improvement
Anno
The little nod squeaks she does are cute too
Anno
Desu yo nee
bangsley
yamai is almost scarier as a friend than an enemy
Anno
Yamai more like yabai
bangsley
yeah
Yuu
jahy okay lets start
Anno
Jahy-sama is indefatigable
bangsley
jahy jahy jahy now with maou and magical girl
bangsley
i love this OP
bangsley
very chaos energy
Anno
Seikatsu!
Anno
Wow Please don't go around stalking little girls Even if you are a mahou shoujo
Yuu
They're friends so it's fine
bangsley
that was more than a tackle that was a body slam
Anno
NAN JE JA NEN
Anno
How heavy is that girl
bangsley
maybe her super magical strength made her super dense maybe she's like 800 pounds
Anno
Wow Jahy-sama you can't say stuff like that on television
Anno
You can (not) escape
Oh we finally got a name for her Jingu Kyoko
bangsley
>in order to make others happy, you need money an important thing to remember during the holiday season....
Yuu
you need money to feed others
Anno
I don't think the mahou shoujo is good for any kind of job though Too much concentrated bad luck
Yuu
jahy is amazing
Anno
She deserves her place as the dark realm's second in command!
Anno
Ja-hiiiin
bangsley
reminds me of dating someone from work seeing them all the time gets old very fast
Anno
Is it just normal for mahou shoujo to be called Kyoko
Anno
GYMNASTICS
Anno
Scheming Jahy-sama
Oh ginger pork is pretty nice
Anno
Izakaya culture in North America kind of gets an "import" increase in pricing, but in Japan izakaya are supposed to be a bit on the lower end of mid-range pub dining A fancy steak dish would probably be outside their accustomed price range
bangsley
i wish i could cook with tenchou
Yuu
I wanna taste test things
Anno
Would you taste test my cooking Rika?
Anno
Uh oh Here's the raid boss of food eating
Anno
She's like a child A child who is also a culinary black hole
bangsley
the magical girl who destroyed the dark realm is now a mother figure to the maou
bangsley
and works as a server at the same restauarant as jahy lol
Anno
>She took it out on the landlady Poor landlady
bangsley
my new grandma visited recently and i got to cook a lot of things and have my family taste test stuff it was fun cooking is my favorite pastime probably
thanks for anime! oyasumi
Yuu
those were good shows thanks for anime
Anno
Yeah, Sundays always have great content Thansk for anime! Good luck with the work week
