I'm on time tonight! Even though I did sleep pretty much straight from when I got home until like ten minutes ago
i love lappland
i don't think i have anything
Anno
Yeah, no dice We're just down to some of the things Rika and I are watching now
Anno
Arifureta Shokugyou de Sekai Saikyou Cue! Episode 5-6 Futsal Boys! Saiyuuki Reload - Zeroin Episode 6-7 Shikkakumon no Saikyou Kenja
Yuu
slow night thanks for anime bang
arifureta cute 5 futsal shikk
Yuu
ari okay lets start
Anno
Reaaaady
Anno
He's laying it into her pretty heavy Maybe a bit on the harsh side
Anno
Oh he rounded up all the races he considered lesser and religious heathens to kill them all Sasuga
Yuu
wow that's getting wild
Anno
I wonder if the string from the trap was real These soldiers might be ghosts
Yeah This is obviously something using Kaori's face
Yuu
looks like he isn't fooled
Anno
It might be the real Kaori's body though Yeah, think so
Anno
Man he really does go hard Torturing some kind of possessor spirit I guess this is the part of him that's not heartless yet Although he's still kind of a monster
Anno
It does kind of feel like a short dungeon And there wasn't really any big boss fight They also didn't really get to the end of the story of that tragedy Like there's some kind of woman who was presumably corrupting that massacre king Maybe that's just not information we're getting yet
Anno
He hasn't really used the power he got from the previous labyrinth either It sounded like teleportation
Oh here's the boss fight I guess Just a little bit late
Anno
What
Anno
I'm guessing there's probably some malicious entity that's hanging around the humankind royal family or something That made that old king in the ghost ship flashback kill all the demihumans and other religious leaders Maybe it is their god in the end though, the teaser at the start of this season did imply Hajime was going to go fight a god by the end of it
Yuu
this series i watch with my brain very much off
cue okay lets start
Anno
I can't turn my brain off it's really kind of a problem Episode five of this
Anno
Also did you only want to do four shows tonight or can you fit an episode of Saiyuuki in somewhere
Yuu
I was thinking only four since I'm tired and it's a slow night Could fit a fifth in but I can't promise I won't fall asleep during
Anno
Been busy lately? We started pretty late last night too but you still called it kind of short
It's okay though, let's just do four then
Yuu
busy and tired didn't get a lot of sleep last night either
Anno
I've not been sleeping great either Work's been stressful which makes me want more personal time to decompress Which cuts into sleep, which to be fair probably only makes work more stressful But I don't really know what else to do
Anno
Tutles and tortoises seem like all right pets Although for one of that size she should probably have a bigger tank
Anno
I wonder how easy it is to get observational look-ins on the recording process like that Maybe if you're an agency who has a talent on the project
Anno
I like seeing the stills of the storyboard they're using as cues for their voice lines
Anno
This kinda shows just how much work goes into recording voice lines like this Like they had to go through an entire scene without actually recording just to get the feeling right
Anno
This mangaka is kind of an autist about her characters Not that I can't kinda understand but she goes really weird about how her characters are interpreted
Anno
This is also continuing something I think we were talking about in a previous episode How much the mangaka gets as input into some of the particulars of an adaptation of their work
Yuu
yeah seems like he's got a lot of control in this one
Anno
At the very least she gets to give input on how accurate a voice is for her character Maybe some mangaka don't really care and just let the adaptation's team handle all the decisions though
Anno
How old are these girls anyway Do they still have high school to attend? Are they college-aged but went straight into the seiyuu business instead of a college program?
Yuu
I feel like they're mostly young aduls just getting jobs
Yuu
futsal okay lets start
Anno
The boys are back in town
Anno
Oh yeah he's got his crisis of faith now
Anno
Sakaki continuing to be the kind of guy who ends a team's career because he can't for the life of himself empathize with another person
Anno
Guess that's why his special kick move was kind of reminscent of breakdancing
Anno
Futsal balls also seem just a bit smaller than normal football balls Although maybe the animators are being a bit lazy with accurate scale
Anno
Everyone is trying to make Sakaki like the MC and he's just "Can you please just let me hate this kid"
Yuu
It was really gay there for a minute
Anno
It's like how some shounen protagonists are like "we can only talk through the language of our fists!" But this time it's "We can only talk through the language of balls!" Which is definitely much more gay
Anno
An accepted rival declaration You know they're as good as lovers now
Anno
I think most people ought to choose more manageable goals for overcoming the trauma of your father abandoning you Than trying to surpass the best player in your sport
Yuu
shiki what ep are we on okay lets start
Anno
The most recent one we're on top of this one uhhhhhhhh Episode six
Anno
I think that's her first actual demon kill All the previous times they've just held a demon off until Matty finished it
Anno
No one ever really questions why Matty knows all this stuff like demon magic He's like a teenage boy, demons were until recently a mysterious entity in this era The fact that he knows demon spells and their cost seems highly suspect
Yuu
this show is an autistic power fantasy but i like it
Anno
I'm certainly not as taken by it but I don't dislike it Maybe it'll be more interesting when they leave the school and start adventuring
Anno
So much for holding off until Matty survives They didn't even need to fire a shot
Anno
Surely with a target that big dragon-chan can't be her usual inaccurate self
Anno
He's been smiling this whole time There's a horde of summoned monsters that could devastate unprotected towns and he's just living his best life
Yuu
This is a high level fight
Anno
I bet more than anything their headmaster is just happy to have the ball of trouble that dragon-chan is out of his hands
Yuu
dragpm dragon is the best girl
okay thanks for anime
Anno
Yep, thanks for anime Have a nice weekend Rika! Enjoy it if you're also getting a long one
