I mentioned it a few weeks back, but there's a good chance this season we might have a night or two of the week where we won't have a full five shows a night Unless we want to scrounge up another show or so to fill the void
Yuu
arifureta okat okay lets start
Anno
Time to go under da sea
Anno
This is kind of a nice OP Why do some of these really dumb shows get good OP/EDs Tokyo Ghoul has some great songs
Anno
Is attacking the ceiling when you're in a submerged cave really the best idea
Yuu
he's having fun dungeon exploring
Anno
It It's kind of cute
Anno
Oh he got separated with his classmate She's probably gonna take the chance to try and strike
Anno
>End the war >Yeah let's kill them all Sasuga
Yuu
They really kinda ignore the classmate isekai thing a lot
Anno
It's not entirely unreasonable They basically threw him into the labyrinth and then did their best to forget about him He's still quite the edgelord but his disdain for his classmates doesn't feel entirely unreasonable
Yuu
I like this ED
futsal 4 okay lets start
Anno
Let's see if they can turn their first real game around
Anno
Sakaki's going to keep dragging their team down if he insists on playing entirely on his own And blaming other people for his awful passes
Anno
I don't know about futsal, but from my understanding in professional football, it's actually pretty uncommon for this many goals to be scored in a game Like most games end like 2-1 or 1-1 or even 0-0 at times This game has a lot of goals by comparison
Anno
Futsal only allows five players per team on the pitch But if they get this sixth guy then they can pair up all the boys on the team with an OTP Plus it's probably useful for the sport to have a reserve player in case of injury
Yuu
that makes sense most sports do have reserve players or subs kuroko had 6 players for a 5 man team too
Anno
Realistically the people running this game probably wouldn't just let some random new member join in the middle of a game hah hah But I guess that's sports anime for you
Anno
Oh the grey-haired kid and the goalie are the tiger and dragon duo too That's a duality that goes far back into East Asian mythology Cultures like China and Japan consider the dragon and the tiger to be spiritual equals and metaphorically exist as an expression of rivalry and being equal to each other
We saw it in force all the way back in Toradora, if you think about it
Anno
These Very Shounen special kicks and stuff are really funny
Anno
Heh
Yuu
teams always lose early in games like this i wonder how many games they lost in kuroko before they won i can't remember
Anno
There was that one basketball anime we watched a couple years back where they did nothing but lose for four cours straight That was exhausting
Yuu
futsal 5 okay lets start
Anno
Let's see how heartbroken they are after one loss Against a team which obviously has had more practice time and players who have stuck with the sport for years on it
Like I get being upset about losing but I mean, c'mon Some times you just gotta accept you picked a hard fight to win
Anno
Everyone's on Sakaki's ass to pass more and be a team player It's kind of funny If it wasn't so completely accurate it probably would be kind of annoying But he's a really bad team player for someone who wants to play a team sport
Yuu
music anime now!
Anno
Taiko seems like a fun arcade game There was a new one announced for the Switch in yesterday's Direct I might pick it up some time
Anno
Wait is this a real arcade game Balancing a platter of stuff while you ride a bike
Anno
For a recent move over from America to Japan, the MC is n't doing many stereotypical American immigrant things Like he does drop English into his dialogue or have weak Japanese Doesn't drop even
Anno
I guess he's going to get humiliated by this guy Considering he's an absolute scrub and this guy is Japan's top player
Anno
Nothing like some good ol' fashioned "I hate my dad"
Yuu
That power technique and it's passed down from his dad
Anno
Parental netorare?
Anno
Oh I was going to say what about his phone But Sakaki just left if there on the ground Which is still pretty rude, but at least he didn't march off with it
Yuu
saiyuuki 5 okay lets start
Anno
Episode five of this
Anno
Man Granrodeo has such a good sound I should see if their stuff is something to listen to at work tomorrow
Anno
The weird anachronism of this world is always neat They're driving around in a jeep but drink from bamboo canteens
Anno
Somehow I doubt that's how it actually went down
Also so the other three in their little gang were adventuring around before Goku joined them, I guess
Yuu
they a;; all look like really lower level adventurers
Anno
The demons are all for the most part supposed to be totally normal people Or were, at least Something happened and they all went crazy and violent So they're probably just like farmhands who picked up anything that looked like a weapon and went on a rampage
Anno
So this illusionary world is kind of like one of those kids games where the kids all just go "I call up an impenetrable barrier!" "Oh yeah? Well I call up a spear that can pierce any barrier!"
Anno
The other three really wasted no time bullying this demon
Yuu
guess he's a traitor now
Anno
As far as things to betray, the vicious mobs of crazed bloodthirsty monsters aren't too bad a thing to pick
Anno
Oh it keeps going There's actually a movie
Anno
I wonder if this is something like the illusionist demon pulled them into a movie illusion Or if it's just some weird bit
Anno
Oh no it's really going off the rails What is this even
Yuu
yeah this is going wild
Anno
I'm so confused Did they just not have enough material with that story with the illusionist demon to make a full episode
Yuu
okay cue okay lets start
Anno
Episode four of this
Anno
I'm pretty sure voicing random background voices is how most seiyuu break into the business So as far as the lot of them go, she's doing things pretty normally
Anno
The idea of a world where idol culture no longer exists is pretty silly Like how would that even happen
Yuu
How do you have idols without some kind of idol cultue culture
Anno
Yeah that too Like if you made it some girls who want to be idols but come from a world where idol culture has been eradicated That kinda makes more sense And actually while being silly kinda sounds a bit fun Hm
Anno
Voice training feels useful Since you also train to know what notes you can sing match with musical notes It also helps conquer tone deafness
Anno
Wow she's a walking bag of superstition At some point it's got to start weighing down on you
Anno
I feel like asking someone who has no confidence why they have no confidence isn't really a great question Because honestly it always feels more like the question is "How do you even have confidence in the first place"
Yuu
ore wa gundam
Anno
ORE WA GUNDAMU
Anno
Hah hah nice coupling
Anno
That's a lot of inari pouches I think they're calorie dense too so twenty five to a person is a lot to eat
Yuu
yeah these look calorie heavy
Anno
Well that was a nice episode This is a cute enough series
