Ahiru no Sora Arte Honzuki no Gekokujou Episode 20-21 Plunderer Shokugeki no Souma Episode 1-2 Tamayomi To aru Kagaku no Railgun Tower of God
Yuu
yup
ahiru tower plunderer railgun arte
Anno
If we still want to hold off on watching Honzuki until Moon is around, we can probably just do four shows tonight. There's six shows aside from Honzuki there, and we'll only be getting Kakushigoto and Hachi-nan tomorrow. So if we did five tonight we'd only have three to watch tomorrow. And if Moon comes in at any time we can just make a Honzuki episode a fifth.
Yuu
That works let's cut railgun
ahiru! okay lets start
Anno
Baske! Sounds like this one game they've been playing is finally about over. I think the clock'll run out this episode.
Yuu
>>842216 Yeah, games have moved very slowly in this.
Anno
They do a very play-by-play take of the games. If you think about it, a basketball game in real life takes maybe two hours or so to get through. When you adapt that faithfully into anime, two hours is like six episodes.
Anno
I guess it was smart of that guy from the opposing team to get this penalty though. It was pretty clear Blondie was gonna dunk that shot at the end of last episode. But with shots like this he's pretty awful at sinking the ball. He had worse odds getting points like this than with the dnk.
Anno
There's like thirty seconds left in the game I think it's fine that she's only now called their last time-out.
Yuu
>>842220 I bet the 30 seconds will be halp half the episode or more
Anno
Wouldn't be surprised, hah hah Even in a real basketball game I've seen the last minute of the game run for like five or ten actual minutes.
Yuu
Yeah, that's totally what's going to happen.
Anno
Ah that was a bad call on Momoharu's. Their super tall guy has the stamina of paper to begin with. Cost them being able to keep Afro in the game too.
Yuu
Yeah, it looks like it didn't go so well.
Anno
Well it's hard to tell if he's crushed over losing the game or because his mom's condition took a turn for the urgent. Even if they won the game hearing that his mom went into ICU on top of the sheer stamina exhaustion would probably take him really out of it.
Anno
They're being kinda mean, hanging both the outcome of that game and his mom's condition on this cliffhanger.
Yuu
Es[ecoa;;y somce Especially since we'll probably find out in the first three minutes.
tower okay lets start
Anno
Reaaaady
Anno
Yeah Kuhn's kind of a keikaku character. He's always got plans in plans in plans.
Anno
The guy in the tracksuit is one of those weirdly mundane characters that inexplicably keeps pace with all the superhuman people around him.
Yuu
Mundane looking people in crazy situations are usually super strong.
Anno
Game over! I wonder why Lauroe helped him get back up though. That was clearly the sleep guy talking to him down at the bottom.
Anno
Oh well okay. I'd totally forgotten this bit. The extent Kuhn will go to help Baam is kind of crazy.
Yuu
plunderer! okay lets start
Anno
We've finally gotten back to the future
Yuu
That was a looot of effort to explain why he is so edgy.
Anno
She should at least find somewhere private.
Anno
120 proof isn't -that- absurd. Though it looked like the bottle used 120% which is, more than just being absurd, completely impossible.
Yuu
She got rejected so bad.
Anno
I mean I guess he's not wrong. He has lived three hundred years. Mentally I don't think he's
What is this episode.
Anno
It's kinda fun to see Hina get hammered and shriek like this. Too often voice lines for shows, even in situations where the character isn't gonna be fully coherent, are still way too smooth. Her seiyuu is getting the unstable shrieky tones of someone who's had too much to drink pretty accurately.
Anno
Even putting aside the superhuman elements of his part in the war, he was still used as a child soldier for it. That really fucks with kids an awful lot.
Yuu
The army that never kills was like so corny and bad
Anno
Well in the end it did turn out most of them never killed. I think the only ones that ever did any killing were Licht, the guy with the goat-eyes, and maybe the sword boy from their class.
Anno
I bet Licht is gonna walk off here and not come back. Coward at heart 'till the end.
Also Hina's really become an alcoholic after getting dumped.
Yuu
They're really lewd and goofing off kinda like they were
Anno
Yeah, ever since getting back to the future they've just been getting drunk and being rowdy.
They're also being awfully rude to Lynn she's not even remotely fat.
Anno
Wow now she's just gonna take him by force.
Anno
He really did try to run off again. Too bad Hina's savvy to his antics by now.
Oh right. Way back before ... all this happened. She was chasing down Licht because her mom told her too, hah hah.
I wonder how her mom's related to Licht. Or maybe someone from their school days.
Anno
Plus I wonder if we're gonna get an answer to why the monocle guy has gone from being a blindly caring kind of person from the school days to seeming a bit like a psychopath now. Looks like he'll show up next episode.
Yuu
This has been a pretty strange series, really.
okay arte okay lets start
Anno
Yeah, despite its dumb antics at times and kind of shoddily thrown-in fanservice, Plunderer has been weirdly engaging. It managed to take a pile of kind of random threads and tie them into a surprisingly coherent plot.
Yuu
It feels like a tabletop game that went weird or something.
Anno
Yeah I could see that hah hah Licht and Jail can be kind of very D&D-y characters at times.
Anno
I want to meet that brown-haired girl we see in this OP. She seems a plain kind of cute.
Anno
Oh speak of the devil.
Anno
It's not very nice to call her a prostitute! As one who plys that trade amonst the high class it's more accurate to call her a courtesan.
Anno
This guy is a bit skeezy. I don't think he's malicious or anything but he feels like everything he does is very superficial.
Yuu
It looked like she was doing alchemy but she was really just eating
Anno
Cooking is basically alchemy anyway.
Anno
Eeeehh Maybe, maybe, in the Renaissance era, just hard work might've been sufficient to get to a point where you can make a living off art. Even then though I have my doubts. Talent don't real when it comes to art but luck definitely does. You can work yourself to the bone to practice and improve but if you're not in the right situation to earn an apprenticeship or job, or you don't get lucky enough to have someone that wants to be your patron discover you, you'll probably be a starving artist forever.
Anno
Gosh that's a lot of dough
Anno
That little bit of hair from when Arte cut it all off has been slowly growing out over the course of the series. It's a nice little hint to the passing of time. Plus it looks cute.
Yuu
It looks a lot better than it did. I like this outfit of hers.
Anno
It looks better like this than when she hikes it up for work. The Renaissance style of bloomers she wears under it aren't very flattering!
Anno
Yeah this guy's definitely a bit of a dick. Again, not the malicious kind, but more he just assumes things work out for him.
Anno
Now it's Leo's turn to be spacey.
Yuu
I like this outfit of hers too.
Anno
The Renaissance had some nice dress fashion. Though on the flip side the men's fashion, at least amongst the nobility, was pretty lame. We haven't seen a lot of it in this show since it focuses more on the artisan class but the men's fashion amongst the nobility was a lot of gaudy colours and tight pants.
Anno
This is a nice lady though. I'm not sure what the norm was for remarrying during this time period but Leo would do good having someone like her to look after him.
Yuu
I think remarrying has always been kinda okay as long as you had a good reason for it like being widowed
Anno
Yeah, not much you can do about a husband dead to the plague.
As expected that brown-haired girl was pretty cute. I feel she was kinda dropped on us out of the blue though. Maybe they've been cutting some of the manga, but I guess the show's kinda moved at a pretty fast chronological pace anyway.
