00:17 --> 00:20 [SPEAKER_06]: Welcome to the Lorehouse podcast where you're guides to the Grand Line.
00:20 --> 00:23 [SPEAKER_06]: I'm John former waiter at Baratier.
00:23 --> 00:31 [SPEAKER_03]: And I'm Elisha, retired trepis artist from Buggy Circus, and this is our coverage of Netflix's live action one piece season one.
00:31 --> 00:34 [SPEAKER_03]: So season one first before season two comes.
00:34 --> 00:38 [SPEAKER_06]: That's right, we're here to prep you for season two, coming March 10.
00:39 --> 00:42 [SPEAKER_06]: But for now, we're going to start spoiler free in our hot takes.
00:43 --> 00:47 [SPEAKER_06]: Then after a break, we're going to get right into the full spoilers, recap the full season ones of it.
00:47 --> 00:50 [SPEAKER_06]: You don't have to rewatch all eight episodes.
00:50 --> 00:51 [SPEAKER_06]: I think it's eight.
00:52 --> 00:54 [SPEAKER_03]: But you can, because it's delightful.
00:54 --> 00:57 [SPEAKER_06]: It is delightful, and I can't talk to other viewers.
00:57 --> 00:57 [SPEAKER_03]: I know, thanks.
00:59 --> 01:01 [SPEAKER_06]: You ought to tell people where to find us.
01:02 --> 01:07 [SPEAKER_03]: Yes, so if you would like to share your thoughts about one piece, we'd love to hear them.
01:07 --> 01:12 [SPEAKER_03]: You can send that to our new email address, one piece at thelowerhounds.com.
01:12 --> 01:18 [SPEAKER_03]: There's a link in the show notes, and we'd love if you would subscribe and share a rating.
01:18 --> 01:22 [SPEAKER_03]: Wherever you're listening, share this episode with anyone else who's into one piece.
01:22 --> 01:24 [SPEAKER_03]: All of that helps us enormously.
01:25 --> 01:31 [SPEAKER_06]: Absolutely.
01:32 --> 01:34 [SPEAKER_06]: We will do at least a one shot for season two.
01:34 --> 01:37 [SPEAKER_06]: I guess we can touch base on that after we've seen how in-depth season two goes.
01:39 --> 01:45 [SPEAKER_06]: For now, like I said, we're going to do mostly spoiler-free hot takes before the first break.
01:45 --> 01:50 [SPEAKER_06]: But I do want to talk about the premise in case people are testing the waters as one might.
01:50 --> 01:51 [SPEAKER_06]: Say, through the series.
01:52 --> 01:53 [SPEAKER_06]: Bye-bye.
01:53 --> 01:55 [SPEAKER_06]: Let's go in right away.
01:55 --> 01:56 [SPEAKER_06]: What did you think?
01:56 --> 01:58 [SPEAKER_06]: What are your water eat?
01:58 --> 02:01 [SPEAKER_06]: I'm just trying to do hot takes, but what are you talking about?
02:01 --> 02:02 [SPEAKER_03]: It was something about sinking or swimming.
02:04 --> 02:12 [SPEAKER_03]: So I did, like I did go, go in knowing some things about the premise because you have been kneeling me for a while.
02:12 --> 02:14 [SPEAKER_03]: Like, what do you want me to say?
02:14 --> 02:16 [SPEAKER_06]: To be clear, I am a one piece stand.
02:16 --> 02:22 [SPEAKER_06]: I've watched probably three quarters of the anime and you have not watched any of the anime, right?
02:22 --> 02:33 [SPEAKER_03]: No, I mean, it's definitely something I've been aware of, I think that most people who are into pop culture are aware of one piece as a phenomenon and how many episodes does the anime have?
02:33 --> 02:50 [SPEAKER_06]: It's over 1100 now, I'm not sure the exact number, it is also last year at least, it was the most watch show in the entire world, so it's bigger than people realize, maybe not as much in the US, but like it is a huge worldwide show.
02:50 --> 02:51 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, right.
02:51 --> 03:03 [SPEAKER_03]: Um, because this is Japanese, of course, anime, um, but then you said they're also, didn't you say they're kind of like in getting in the end game for the anime is the manga, so it's based on a manga is the manga I'm finished.
03:03 --> 03:04 [SPEAKER_06]: No, the manga is not finished.
03:05 --> 03:07 [SPEAKER_06]: The, they are both in their final saga.
03:07 --> 03:08 [SPEAKER_06]: So the,
03:08 --> 03:36 [SPEAKER_06]: you know if you want more information on this we did a few episodes me and my friend Moses we did a few episodes a couple years ago on the first few arcs of one piece uh we meant to continue didn't work out with scheduling maybe we'll get back to it at some point but uh essentially there are multiple sagas and a saga contains multiple arcs and so this season of television was basically all one saga
03:37 --> 03:40 [SPEAKER_06]: Well, well, still being multiple arcs, right?
03:41 --> 03:44 [SPEAKER_03]: So, but so it condensed the anime.
03:44 --> 03:45 [SPEAKER_03]: Is Sashmanga a lot then?
03:46 --> 03:51 [SPEAKER_06]: It really condensed it quite a lot, but I think that they did a really respectful job in doing that.
03:52 --> 03:55 [SPEAKER_06]: We'll get into that, you know, sort of production details a little bit in the minute.
03:55 --> 04:03 [SPEAKER_06]: I'm going to sprinkle them throughout rather than doing a dedicated section on it, but I want to get your general thoughts for all on it as a first-time launcher.
04:03 --> 04:12 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, so as someone, I'm glad that I came in, you know, so you've been talking to me about the anime and you're not the only person who has been talking to me about the anime and like, oh, you would like it.
04:12 --> 04:13 [SPEAKER_03]: You would like it.
04:13 --> 04:22 [SPEAKER_03]: You would love the lore and the characters and all that, but of course it's intimidating to have like, there's 1100 episodes or whatever.
04:22 --> 04:27 [SPEAKER_03]: I am glad that I jumped in with just this first season for now of the live action show.
04:29 --> 04:37 [SPEAKER_03]: It gives me a chance to judge it without knowing what the bigger picture is and just take it for face value and what was delivered to newbies like me.
04:37 --> 04:41 [SPEAKER_03]: I thought it did a really great job with that, like, to me, it never felt rushed.
04:41 --> 04:46 [SPEAKER_03]: I thought they did the pacing well, the way they spread out, introducing the character.
04:46 --> 04:54 [SPEAKER_03]: So you had time to get to know them as they joined the cast rather than just being overwhelmed with all of them at once in the beginning.
04:54 --> 04:58 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I thought there it was eight episodes for me.
04:58 --> 05:01 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm usually complaining, then it's not enough.
05:01 --> 05:04 [SPEAKER_03]: And I'm sure a lot of the anime fans must be.
05:05 --> 05:11 [SPEAKER_03]: But for me, it really told a cohesive arc for...
05:11 --> 05:20 [SPEAKER_03]: For each of the characters, like they had a really nice coming together moment at the end where they're all revisiting their goals as children and that satisfying.
05:21 --> 05:22 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I really quite liked it.
05:22 --> 05:36 [SPEAKER_03]: Like there's there's the side of my like the TV scenes side of my brain that was like, oh, some of this is some serious cartoon logic, like that's not how cover up tattoos work, but.
05:36 --> 05:46 [SPEAKER_03]: But you know, I just let go of that because obviously that's, this is not a show about scientific accuracy or things like that.
05:46 --> 05:47 [SPEAKER_06]: No, not at all.
05:47 --> 05:55 [SPEAKER_06]: You do have to treat this as basically a fantasy, not just a science fiction show and not just a pirate show.
05:55 --> 06:05 [SPEAKER_06]: And what I'm glad about is they didn't try to make it more realistic because I think that would have really ruined the magic of the show, the magic of this formula.
06:05 --> 06:12 [SPEAKER_06]: And instead what they did was they, and I'm kind of segue into my outtakes, I'll I'll go back to you for final thoughts.
06:12 --> 06:12 [SPEAKER_06]: Okay.
06:12 --> 06:22 [SPEAKER_06]: But, you know, what I wanted to say is they really leaned into the found family aspect and this, you know, follow your dreams aspect.
06:23 --> 06:29 [SPEAKER_06]: This idea of a bunch of people coming together for a shared goal, but also their individual goals.
06:29 --> 06:34 [SPEAKER_06]: I think that they really nailed all of those relational dynamics, and that is the core of one piece.
06:34 --> 06:42 [SPEAKER_06]: It is, and this is why I recommended to, well, Wheel of Time fans a lot is that it is very much about the people.
06:43 --> 06:46 [SPEAKER_06]: Very much about the characters, spending time with them, hanging out with them.
06:47 --> 06:57 [SPEAKER_06]: And the same way the Wheel of Time will spend a lot of time on things that are maybe not like directly plot relevant, but will pay off in terms of character development.
06:58 --> 07:06 [SPEAKER_06]: This show is the same way, especially in the anime, but they do a pretty good job summarizing it in the show in the live action show.
07:06 --> 07:07 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
07:07 --> 07:13 [SPEAKER_03]: And the other thing that I talked to about privately before this episode is how much I appreciate the casting.
07:13 --> 07:28 [SPEAKER_03]: Now I talked a lot about Luffy's casting because I just think they really nailed getting someone who can have that like cartoonish boyishness and they did a lot of good things with the cinematography and like emphasizing his lengthy limbs and stuff and just
07:28 --> 07:33 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, visually telling this story of this character and great stretching powers.
07:33 --> 07:37 [SPEAKER_03]: Honestly, I would have liked to have seen some of those stretching powers in Fantastic Four.
07:41 --> 07:43 [SPEAKER_03]: But I didn't really mention to you the rest of the cast.
07:43 --> 07:44 [SPEAKER_03]: And I think they're all great.
07:44 --> 07:50 [SPEAKER_03]: Now I know I knew when this show was airing that people were thirsting after the entire cast in the internet.
07:52 --> 07:55 [SPEAKER_03]: Get that now, but it's still it's it is.
07:56 --> 08:04 [SPEAKER_03]: Well, it's wholesome, but then I also said to you it was a little bit more violent than I expected, so this is definitely not one for young kids.
08:04 --> 08:05 [SPEAKER_06]: No, definitely not.
08:05 --> 08:07 [SPEAKER_06]: And that's true of the anime, too.
08:07 --> 08:11 [SPEAKER_06]: I mean, there, the thing is like, a lot of it is probably suitable for young kids.
08:11 --> 08:13 [SPEAKER_06]: And then it will just be like fight.
08:13 --> 08:15 [SPEAKER_06]: And it's like everyone's bloody and terrible.
08:15 --> 08:17 [SPEAKER_06]: And then you just can't chance it.
08:17 --> 08:20 [SPEAKER_03]: They cut someone in half in the first episode.
08:21 --> 08:29 [SPEAKER_03]: But the way they did it was, it wasn't like, if it were rated R show, walking dead or something, then a bunch of guts and organs would have spilled out.
08:29 --> 08:33 [SPEAKER_03]: But no, it's just sort of this like vague red gumminus on the two halves.
08:33 --> 08:36 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, there's a part to respect to it too.
08:36 --> 08:45 [SPEAKER_06]: I mean, something that I love about this adaptation is that, you know, like I said, they didn't shy away from the silliness of it, and that's true of like costume design, too, right?
08:45 --> 08:50 [SPEAKER_06]: There are people in ways that no one would ever address in any real capacity.
08:51 --> 09:10 [SPEAKER_06]: they want to have that recognizable style from the anime and that's fine like as long as the acting is convincing I think you're fine to be a little cartoonish with the costume right and what means they do it intentionally they do an interesting mix like okay so a bunch of the characters
09:10 --> 09:26 [SPEAKER_03]: Car colors that are not human tones, which great, but then you notice some of them It's really clearly a wig where like the entire thing is blue hair and then other ones They just have them like their dark roots growing in and they're like, that's fine That's a look too.
09:27 --> 09:33 [SPEAKER_06]: Oh, yeah, yeah, like with Zoro Zoro is often called moss head in the anime, so uh, okay
09:34 --> 09:38 [SPEAKER_06]: That's the insult that somebody lobs on him quite often.
09:39 --> 09:47 [SPEAKER_03]: But then there's also things like, for instance, Luffy's, he's got like those Jean cut off kind of three-quarter length, whatever.
09:48 --> 10:02 [SPEAKER_03]: But rather than just having like, freight bottoms, you know, I did just Jean denim naturally phrase, they have like, so no, and it's perfectly freight bottom where they're really just like, no, we're going for the cartoonish.
10:02 --> 10:04 [SPEAKER_03]: perfectly imperfect to look.
10:05 --> 10:07 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, and that's great.
10:07 --> 10:09 [SPEAKER_06]: I think they did a great job of this.
10:09 --> 10:10 [SPEAKER_06]: This ended.
10:10 --> 10:14 [SPEAKER_06]: People largely said that this ended the curse of anime adaptation.
10:15 --> 10:20 [SPEAKER_06]: Because there was Dragon Ball, evolution, I think it was called.
10:20 --> 10:34 [SPEAKER_06]: It was like a horrend, like the Dragon Ball movie that adapted the comic and the, sorry, the manga and the anime into live action was so bad that it made the original creator of Dragon Ball go back to writing the manga.
10:35 --> 10:40 [SPEAKER_06]: Because he said, I have to create new contents so that this movie is not the last word on my work.
10:40 --> 10:41 [SPEAKER_06]: That's fair.
10:42 --> 10:43 [SPEAKER_06]: It was not bad.
10:43 --> 10:44 [SPEAKER_06]: That death note was terrible.
10:44 --> 10:45 [SPEAKER_06]: Cowboy B-bop.
10:45 --> 10:46 [SPEAKER_06]: I heard was terrible.
10:47 --> 10:52 [SPEAKER_06]: Just all these small adaptations, which by the way, a couple of those Renet Flakes, right?
10:52 --> 10:52 [SPEAKER_06]: Right.
10:52 --> 10:54 [SPEAKER_06]: It wasn't.
10:54 --> 11:14 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, couple of people like I love John Cho and so I tuned into the first episode of that and I didn't finish the first episode and maybe that's on me I know some people did like it, but for me, I was just like, yeah, I got everything that I should want but I'm out But I will defend and this is technically not anime.
11:14 --> 11:20 [SPEAKER_03]: I did like the Netflix first season of Avatar The Last Airbender You know, I don't think it's
11:21 --> 11:22 [SPEAKER_03]: leaves up to the original.
11:22 --> 11:27 [SPEAKER_03]: It does it also condense and things like that, but I quite enjoyed it and thought the casting was excellent there too.
11:27 --> 11:29 [SPEAKER_06]: I love the Avatar cartoon.
11:29 --> 11:31 [SPEAKER_06]: I still have not gotten to season one of the live action show.
11:32 --> 11:32 [SPEAKER_06]: Okay.
11:32 --> 11:35 [SPEAKER_06]: But anyway, I mean, those are those are my general thoughts.
11:35 --> 11:40 [SPEAKER_06]: You have any other thoughts on the season without giving any spoilers?
11:41 --> 11:47 [SPEAKER_03]: Um, no, just it was, um, it was a good time, and I, yeah, it was a fun binge.
11:47 --> 11:51 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm glad that I actually waited until now because now it's fresh in my head.
11:51 --> 11:54 [SPEAKER_03]: And I was, I ended very excited for a season two.
11:54 --> 11:57 [SPEAKER_03]: So I'm glad that there's one coming next week.
11:58 --> 12:02 [SPEAKER_06]: So are you convinced to watch the anime so you don't have to watch it?
12:02 --> 12:03 [SPEAKER_06]: So you don't have to wait anymore at all.
12:05 --> 12:07 [SPEAKER_03]: Well, I mean, I'm definitely not going to get to it this week.
12:09 --> 12:11 [SPEAKER_03]: So I'll just watch season two for now.
12:12 --> 12:16 [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know about watching the anime, we'll see.
12:16 --> 12:18 [SPEAKER_03]: You said something about an anime reboot coming?
12:19 --> 12:26 [SPEAKER_06]: There is, so it was, we were told last year that it was coming like late 2025, early 2026, but that seems to have just blown past.
12:27 --> 12:32 [SPEAKER_06]: So nobody has heard exactly when it's coming, but it is getting rebooted.
12:32 --> 12:35 [SPEAKER_06]: Well, the old anime is finished.
12:35 --> 12:39 [SPEAKER_06]: like they're both going to run at the same time, but the new one's going to start at episode one.
12:39 --> 12:43 [SPEAKER_06]: And it's, you know, a lot of shows have done this in recent years.
12:43 --> 12:46 [SPEAKER_06]: Dragon Ball Z Kai was one full metal alchemist brotherhood was another one.
12:47 --> 12:51 [SPEAKER_06]: They go back and I guess full metal alchemist brotherhood is the closer example.
12:51 --> 13:00 [SPEAKER_06]: But they go back and they restart the anime and they try to do a very close no filler adaptation of the source material.
13:00 --> 13:06 [SPEAKER_06]: Because there is a decent amount of foiler, uh, spoiler, uh, filler in one piece, the anime.
13:06 --> 13:10 [SPEAKER_06]: Not a ton, especially compared to like an arduo, but there is a decent amount of filler.
13:11 --> 13:13 [SPEAKER_06]: And, you know, people will joke about the pacing in one piece.
13:13 --> 13:22 [SPEAKER_06]: Like, if you, I don't know if you've ever seen these videos on the short platforms, where they'll say like, going to the bathroom, but one piece, uh, pacing.
13:22 --> 13:27 [SPEAKER_06]: And then they, they just pipe up, bup, bup, bup, bup, bup, bup.
13:27 --> 13:29 [SPEAKER_06]: And they do like a million angles if you just walk into the bathroom.
13:30 --> 13:41 [SPEAKER_03]: No, I just remember like seeing memes of people being like one piece bands will straight look at you in the face and say just wait until episode 600 and it'll get good.
13:42 --> 13:43 [SPEAKER_06]: It, it's not wrong.
13:43 --> 13:46 [SPEAKER_06]: That's not right.
13:46 --> 13:59 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, I'm not going to say I'm never going to watch you, but I have so much on my to watch list that it's just such that most of the stuff on my to watch list is not more than a thousand episodes.
13:59 --> 14:00 [SPEAKER_03]: So.
14:01 --> 14:03 [SPEAKER_06]: I know it's not prior to how to justify.
14:03 --> 14:04 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
14:04 --> 14:09 [SPEAKER_03]: But I'm totally in for the reboots and I am in for here on out on the live action.
14:10 --> 14:10 [SPEAKER_06]: very cool.
14:11 --> 14:17 [SPEAKER_06]: I am to, you know, being the anime watcher, I think that this is a really respectful adaptation.
14:17 --> 14:22 [SPEAKER_06]: You mentioned the casting, you know, Hiro Oda, the creator of the manga and anime.
14:23 --> 14:29 [SPEAKER_06]: He, he, first of all, was given complete, basically final creative say on everything, which is why it's so faithful.
14:31 --> 14:34 [SPEAKER_06]: You know, and that makes me hopeful for the Brandon Sanders and
14:35 --> 14:41 [SPEAKER_06]: But he actually didn't interview where he was talking with the Luffy actor.
14:41 --> 14:43 [SPEAKER_06]: I can't remember his name off the top of my head.
14:43 --> 14:47 [SPEAKER_06]: I should have pulled up Wikipedia, but he was talking to him.
14:47 --> 14:52 [SPEAKER_06]: And he said, I'm just so glad I lived long enough to see somebody embody my character so perfectly.
14:52 --> 15:10 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I mean he does I mean I don't know the source material of course, but you just have the sense this is the character driving the story because he is very Hope punk and Is this is very old part because of it in yaki godoy is his name
15:10 --> 15:11 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, he's perfect.
15:11 --> 15:15 [SPEAKER_06]: They, you know, the, it's an international cast as you can say.
15:16 --> 15:17 [SPEAKER_06]: And that is intentional.
15:17 --> 15:21 [SPEAKER_06]: That is, that was in the agreement that Oda made with Netflix.
15:21 --> 15:36 [SPEAKER_06]: He said the cast has to be international to match my intention in the manga because they all were, he does these, I don't, I think this happens in a lot of manga, but he does these like Q&A at the end of a lot of his chapters, right?
15:36 --> 15:41 [SPEAKER_06]: And he will answer questions or they were like, well, what nationalities would you base?
15:41 --> 15:42 [SPEAKER_06]: The one piece paratophove.
15:42 --> 15:46 [SPEAKER_06]: The straw hot paratophove, like Luffy's supposed to be Brazilian.
15:46 --> 15:49 [SPEAKER_06]: I'm not going to list the other ones right now, because I don't want to steal the food.
15:49 --> 15:51 [SPEAKER_03]: He's the actor's Mexican, but that's fine.
15:51 --> 15:52 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, yeah, I know.
15:52 --> 15:55 [SPEAKER_06]: It's not perfect, but it's closer, then.
15:56 --> 16:05 [SPEAKER_03]: Well, you'll see if anyone who's listened to the Oscars in our national episode where I had a Mexican guest will know that they identify very closely with Brazilian.
16:05 --> 16:06 [SPEAKER_06]: Okay.
16:06 --> 16:06 [SPEAKER_06]: Fair enough.
16:07 --> 16:07 [SPEAKER_06]: Fair enough.
16:08 --> 16:18 [SPEAKER_06]: Um, another character is supposed to be Japanese and that matches, you know, like, um, I, they did a good job making an international from, from at least all regions of the world cast.
16:18 --> 16:18 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
16:21 --> 16:23 [SPEAKER_06]: So now I'm going to go into what I would call our spoiler light section.
16:23 --> 16:31 [SPEAKER_06]: So if you want absolutely no spoilers, I would stop now, but really all I'm going to tell you is the opening narration.
16:31 --> 16:32 [SPEAKER_06]: from the anime.
16:32 --> 16:43 [SPEAKER_06]: I'm pulling it from the anime because and I started the the anime podcast that we did a while ago, the similar way because I just think that it is so perfectly in encapsulation of the story.
16:43 --> 16:47 [SPEAKER_06]: Do you want to be Gold Roger?
16:48 --> 16:49 [SPEAKER_02]: Sure, I'm ready.
16:51 --> 16:53 [SPEAKER_06]: Well, fame power.
16:53 --> 16:55 [SPEAKER_06]: Their once was a man who obtained it all.
16:55 --> 16:57 [SPEAKER_06]: The pirate king gold Roger.
16:57 --> 17:01 [SPEAKER_06]: His last words at the executions stand sent people from all over the world out to see.
17:02 --> 17:05 [SPEAKER_03]: My wealth and treasure, it can be yours if you want it.
17:06 --> 17:06 [SPEAKER_03]: Search for it.
17:07 --> 17:09 [SPEAKER_03]: I left everything in that one place.
17:10 --> 17:13 [SPEAKER_06]: Men now set sail for the Grand Line in search of romance.
17:14 --> 17:16 [SPEAKER_06]: The world has entered a great pirate era.
17:17 --> 17:18 [SPEAKER_06]: So anyway, that's the premise.
17:18 --> 17:20 [SPEAKER_06]: Is there was a great pirate era?
17:21 --> 17:23 [SPEAKER_06]: when the King of the Pirates was killed.
17:24 --> 17:27 [SPEAKER_06]: He was like, hey, I put all my treasure in one place.
17:28 --> 17:29 [SPEAKER_06]: And that is the one piece.
17:29 --> 17:31 [SPEAKER_06]: That's what all these pirates are searching for.
17:31 --> 17:45 [SPEAKER_06]: And so this execution of this pirate kind of backfired on the world government, it, you know, it caused a huge, great pirate era where everybody and their mother was joining a pirate crew to find the greatest treasure ever created.
17:46 --> 17:47 [SPEAKER_03]: Nice.
17:47 --> 17:49 [SPEAKER_03]: Good for you.
17:50 --> 17:58 [SPEAKER_06]: Alright, if you're not sold on the series now, then you could probably stick around anyway, because we're gonna spoil it all right after the break.
18:09 --> 18:15 [SPEAKER_06]: Alright, and if you're curious where all this sound is coming from, it is from the original anime sounds.
18:15 --> 18:23 [SPEAKER_03]: I have not listened to your episodes about the anime because I haven't watched them yet and I didn't want to be spoiled so those towns are new to me and I find them lots of fun.
18:25 --> 18:29 [SPEAKER_06]: I appreciate that because I did, I did try to recreate the whimsy of the show.
18:30 --> 18:31 [SPEAKER_03]: I feel the whims.
18:31 --> 18:32 [SPEAKER_06]: That's great.
18:32 --> 18:34 [SPEAKER_06]: We all need more whims in our life.
18:36 --> 18:43 [SPEAKER_06]: So there's five arcs that this show covers, the season of the show covers.
18:43 --> 18:46 [SPEAKER_06]: We are all in the East Blue saga.
18:46 --> 18:49 [SPEAKER_06]: This is all the East Blue saga of one piece.
18:49 --> 18:50 [SPEAKER_06]: That's the first saga.
18:50 --> 18:53 [SPEAKER_06]: It's a pretty varied one.
18:53 --> 18:56 [SPEAKER_06]: It's a lot about, as you know, Alicia.
18:56 --> 18:58 [SPEAKER_06]: It's a lot about just gathering the crew up.
18:58 --> 19:01 [SPEAKER_06]: We're building up the first set of crew members.
19:02 --> 19:04 [SPEAKER_06]: Maybe not all of them, but the first set.
19:04 --> 19:11 [SPEAKER_03]: I liked how they handled, I never felt disoriented in the show, even though there's a lot of locations.
19:11 --> 19:15 [SPEAKER_03]: You know, like I don't show a map.
19:15 --> 19:18 [SPEAKER_03]: They show like, you know, not an actual usable map in the show.
19:19 --> 19:27 [SPEAKER_03]: But I got that they were in the East Blue, there's somewhere there's something called an all blue where all the blues come together in the mainline or whatever.
19:27 --> 19:30 [SPEAKER_03]: I think something to do with nobody's found it, but me.
19:30 --> 19:31 [SPEAKER_03]: Right.
19:31 --> 19:45 [SPEAKER_03]: Um, yeah, and that was kind of, you know, in the name of the different towns where they spent the most time, and that was like, I could remember that enough for the arc where they, you know, sitting in the like, oh, we have to go back to Coco Beach or Grover, whatever it's called, I'm like, oh, no.
19:46 --> 19:52 [SPEAKER_03]: Um, so I thought they handled that well for people like me who have no idea of what anything in this world is called.
19:52 --> 19:55 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I'll say it's not even that representative of how the show usually is.
19:56 --> 20:00 [SPEAKER_06]: Usually you spend like 100 episodes of the anime in one location on one island.
20:01 --> 20:06 [SPEAKER_06]: In this in the first saga in in because we're building the initial crew.
20:06 --> 20:09 [SPEAKER_06]: We can't just like have an adventure together yet.
20:09 --> 20:13 [SPEAKER_06]: they're jumping from place to place, trying to gather everything, right?
20:13 --> 20:14 [SPEAKER_06]: And that's, it makes sense.
20:14 --> 20:15 [SPEAKER_06]: That's Luffy's mission as he starts off.
20:15 --> 20:21 [SPEAKER_06]: He goes around and he's trying to find a navigator and he's trying to find the swordsmen and he's trying to find the chef.
20:21 --> 20:24 [SPEAKER_06]: He just needs all these different crew members and...
20:24 --> 20:30 [SPEAKER_06]: Once we get everybody settled a little bit, then we're going to get to the Grand Line and that's kind of where the story really begins.
20:30 --> 20:34 [SPEAKER_06]: I see this whole saga as kind of a prequel to the real adventure.
20:35 --> 20:42 [SPEAKER_06]: And I know that that sounds really annoying because, again, it's like after 600 episodes, you really getting going.
20:42 --> 20:51 [SPEAKER_06]: But no, after the East Blue saga, you're really getting going, and we're not quite done with the East Blue saga by the way.
20:51 --> 21:00 [SPEAKER_06]: We have one little arc to finish at the beginning of the next season, but it is basically like a prequel arc for the next saga.
21:00 --> 21:03 [SPEAKER_06]: So I'm supportive of their decision not to include in season one.
21:03 --> 21:22 [SPEAKER_03]: yeah i mean i i thought i like an origin story um and so i'm glad that they didn't just be like and they're just on this ship and here's all the characters i'm glad that we took some time to you know video game style gather them up yeah i think they did a good job do you want to tell us what happened in the first arc romance dom
21:23 --> 21:34 [SPEAKER_03]: Sure, we're introduced to Monkey D. Luffy, a young pirate who ate a devil fruit, called the gum gum fruits that gave him the power to stretch his body like rubber, but took away his ability to swim.
21:34 --> 21:49 [SPEAKER_03]: After helping Kobe escape service as Alvita's cabin boy, the two had to shells town where they find a great pirate hunter, uh, Rooranoa, Zoro, imprisoned,
21:49 --> 21:51 [SPEAKER_03]: I can't remember that because swords.
21:51 --> 21:53 [SPEAKER_03]: Anyway, but different kinds of swords anyway.
21:54 --> 21:59 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, it's also by the way, it trips people up because in the manga he's a low, and in the show he's, Zoro.
22:00 --> 22:01 [SPEAKER_03]: Interesting.
22:01 --> 22:02 [SPEAKER_03]: Hmm, I guess.
22:02 --> 22:09 [SPEAKER_03]: In like Asian pronunciation, the R and the L are quite close to each other, but still, okay, anyway.
22:09 --> 22:24 [SPEAKER_03]: Um, Luffy defeats Marine captain, Axe Han Morgan helps in literal accent, helps Kobe achieve his dream of becoming a Marine and rescue Zoro, Zoro then joins Luffy's crew as its first member.
22:26 --> 22:29 [SPEAKER_06]: So, we got a couple of introductions here, right?
22:29 --> 22:35 [SPEAKER_06]: We got Monkey D. Luffy, the man of the
22:36 --> 22:50 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, just, like, this is, at first, you know, you don't know, is he hope punk or is he hope punk or is he's veering into toxic positivity, you know?
22:50 --> 23:05 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm glad to say it is a ladder because then, but you have this setup where he's just like, there's maybe two happy go lucky kind of guy, and then it actually makes things have more impact when he drops that later and he's like, no, now I'm serious.
23:06 --> 23:10 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I think you said like when he locks it and it's really great and that's true.
23:11 --> 23:23 [SPEAKER_06]: Some way that Moses told me and I agree with this is Luffy does lack a lot of, you know, maybe common sense and like book smarts, but he's really emotionally intelligent.
23:23 --> 23:34 [SPEAKER_06]: He really has a high EQ here, and he gets to the heart of people in a way that a lot of people can't do, even very smart people, and he sees intentions very clearly.
23:34 --> 23:45 [SPEAKER_06]: And he has a really great moral compass and moral clarity, and that's why he's a compelling leader, because he's not a Mary Sue Gary Stewart, right?
23:45 --> 23:51 [SPEAKER_06]: He has a lot of flaws, but you're rooting for him anyway, because he's just got this
23:51 --> 23:52 [SPEAKER_03]: Right.
23:52 --> 23:58 [SPEAKER_03]: And you see where he learns things from, it's not like, you know, he just kind of looked into this or something.
23:58 --> 24:06 [SPEAKER_03]: He has, you know, it turns out as we'll talk about more, he's been being trained in various ways, his entire life by the people in it.
24:07 --> 24:09 [SPEAKER_03]: By do, I think it's funny.
24:09 --> 24:18 [SPEAKER_03]: In a later arc, a character, maybe it was Nami, is just like so annoyed that he's always right with these ridiculous assumptions about people's behavior.
24:19 --> 24:19 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
24:21 --> 24:27 [SPEAKER_06]: I know, because Nami is like, you know, book smart, extremely intelligent, but she, she's my cynical.
24:27 --> 24:28 [SPEAKER_06]: Exactly.
24:28 --> 24:29 [SPEAKER_06]: She's very cynical.
24:29 --> 24:30 [SPEAKER_06]: I know who can blame her.
24:30 --> 24:31 [SPEAKER_06]: We find out next story later.
24:32 --> 24:33 [SPEAKER_06]: And who can blame her for her?
24:33 --> 24:35 [SPEAKER_06]: General attitude towards pirates, right?
24:35 --> 24:47 [SPEAKER_06]: And what I find really, I don't want to get too deep into Nami yet, but we get, we get a lot of syntax in this show being converted by Luffy.
24:47 --> 24:50 [SPEAKER_06]: And the first one, of course,
24:51 --> 25:00 [SPEAKER_06]: What was your, you know, did you think, I mean, I'm sure that you knew that he's in the crew right, just from general osmosis of culture.
25:00 --> 25:16 [SPEAKER_03]: Um, I mean, I suppose I've seen pictures, like I've seen pictures of the anime versions of the crew, but to be honest, I knew very little about who was part of the crew other than I knew there was Luffy and I knew there was going to be some clownish character who would show up just from seeing images.
25:16 --> 25:24 [SPEAKER_03]: But I didn't, I think maybe I heard or saw Zoro being referred to as like the hot water or something like that, which fair.
25:24 --> 25:25 [SPEAKER_03]: Um, haha.
25:26 --> 25:50 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, but I mean, it's just, yeah, he's an archetype, you know, with the, with the heart of gold and so I feel like we haven't completely seen him yet, we know we learn what his ambition is to be the greatest swordsman and I'm waiting for that friend we saw on his flashback to come back and I'm also waiting for something came to do something better with the third sword than hold it in its teeth.
25:51 --> 25:57 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, it comes, it's coming, there's a there's a there's a reasons for it.
25:57 --> 26:03 [SPEAKER_06]: I mean, it does feel a little silly sometimes and a lot of the time he'll just be like, okay, two sort style doing this.
26:04 --> 26:18 [SPEAKER_06]: They need a lot of really funny stuff with him like they they did these nads toward the anime and almost mocked it a little bit, but you know,
26:18 --> 26:19 [SPEAKER_06]: He's like, no, they don't.
26:19 --> 26:25 [SPEAKER_06]: And which is hilarious to me because the anime is where I was like, two sorts of hell, drag, you know.
26:25 --> 26:32 [SPEAKER_03]: But I also ever minded me of wheel of time, but also a reminder me of like every anime where they have to, yeah, you have to shout out to your moves.
26:33 --> 26:33 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
26:34 --> 26:37 [SPEAKER_06]: I love it.
26:37 --> 26:44 [SPEAKER_06]: I love the way that they do these cute little nods, but I mean, Zoro's a lot more grumpy in the show while saying in the anime.
26:44 --> 26:49 [SPEAKER_06]: He's still very serious in the anime, but he has more like slap.
26:49 --> 26:52 [SPEAKER_06]: There's a lot more slap tech humor in general in the cartoon.
26:53 --> 26:59 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, well, no, I think it's good that they have, you know, someone who's more, he's still a likable character.
26:59 --> 27:01 [SPEAKER_03]: I just feel like he's a closed off character.
27:01 --> 27:11 [SPEAKER_03]: So we learn the basics about him, but, um, yeah, not, we don't get as deep of a view into his psyche, I say, Luffy.
27:11 --> 27:16 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I think they're gonna go a little deeper into it in the first arc of the next season.
27:16 --> 27:17 [SPEAKER_06]: Okay.
27:17 --> 27:19 [SPEAKER_06]: You'll learn a lot about it, and I think it'll be rewarding.
27:20 --> 27:24 [SPEAKER_06]: We did get dramatic backstories in general this season, so I don't think there was a lack of that.
27:24 --> 27:27 [SPEAKER_06]: I think it may be smart to save some of it for next season.
27:27 --> 27:30 [SPEAKER_03]: No, I mean, I don't think it's a lack of them doing anything in the show.
27:30 --> 27:32 [SPEAKER_03]: It's just the type of character he has.
27:32 --> 27:32 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, yeah.
27:33 --> 27:33 [SPEAKER_06]: That's true.
27:34 --> 27:39 [SPEAKER_06]: Did you think that Kobe was going to join the straw hat?
27:39 --> 27:49 [SPEAKER_03]: I guess at first I assume I assumed any character this season that they put focus on was going to join the straw hats and then there were several times during the season.
27:49 --> 27:51 [SPEAKER_03]: I was like, oh, Kobe's done with the Marines.
27:52 --> 27:58 [SPEAKER_03]: But I like the, uh, what's what's the name of Axan Morgan's son?
27:58 --> 27:59 [SPEAKER_06]: Home up, though.
27:59 --> 28:01 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, that's Home Depot.
28:01 --> 28:04 [SPEAKER_03]: I like the arc between Kobe and Hill Mepho this season.
28:05 --> 28:14 [SPEAKER_03]: And as soon as I saw, Kobe really is going to join the Marines, it's like that's going to be interesting that adds more complicated dynamics and it indeed did.
28:15 --> 28:18 [SPEAKER_03]: I didn't even know everything about the Marines yet, which we'll obviously talk about.
28:18 --> 28:26 [SPEAKER_03]: But yeah, I like that when they have characters you're rooting for on both sides of a situation.
28:27 --> 28:38 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, and what's interesting about him being the first person Luffy meets is that, immediately, Kobe's dream is contrary to what Luffy believes in, right?
28:38 --> 28:39 [SPEAKER_06]: Right.
28:39 --> 28:41 [SPEAKER_06]: But he goes, okay.
28:41 --> 28:41 [SPEAKER_06]: Let's go.
28:41 --> 28:42 [SPEAKER_06]: Hope you do that.
28:42 --> 28:44 [SPEAKER_06]: He doesn't have any second thoughts about it.
28:45 --> 28:45 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
28:46 --> 28:48 [SPEAKER_03]: And he doesn't say, are we doing fools for Elias?
28:49 --> 28:50 [SPEAKER_06]: Do you offer this season?
28:50 --> 28:51 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, full swing for this season.
28:51 --> 28:58 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, I can't do more than that anyway, but he doesn't say like, oh, my grandfather runs the mind.
28:58 --> 29:05 [SPEAKER_06]: But anyway, which I want to point out, like the show, the anime does not reveal that that early.
29:05 --> 29:07 [SPEAKER_06]: Okay, I don't know.
29:08 --> 29:09 [SPEAKER_06]: I think it's it's fine to do it early.
29:10 --> 29:13 [SPEAKER_06]: It's just interesting that they chose to make Garb a much bigger part of this arc.
29:13 --> 29:19 [SPEAKER_03]: Can I ask a question about, so it's Monkey D Garp is his grandfather and Monkey D Luffy.
29:19 --> 29:22 [SPEAKER_03]: So the Monkey D is the family name part?
29:23 --> 29:24 [SPEAKER_06]: The Monkey is the family name.
29:24 --> 29:28 [SPEAKER_06]: D is like a whole can of worms that we can't open today.
29:28 --> 29:31 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, okay, all right.
29:32 --> 29:36 [SPEAKER_06]: It's like a whole other non-family thing.
29:36 --> 29:41 [SPEAKER_03]: Okay, all right, so yeah, we're just doing I mean it makes sense.
29:41 --> 29:52 [SPEAKER_03]: It's the Japanese anime we're doing it But of course just like seeing it not having any idea about this world when I saw the main characters called monkey du Luffy I assumed to Luffy was the family name.
29:53 --> 29:54 [SPEAKER_06]: I know I think a lot of people do.
29:54 --> 30:03 [SPEAKER_06]: I did at first I will also tell you and I think they make this clear when they do subtitle the one out like gold Roger is not gold Roger his gold D Roger
30:04 --> 30:08 [SPEAKER_03]: So the D is more widespread, got it.
30:08 --> 30:10 [SPEAKER_06]: Yes, there will, you will meet more D's.
30:10 --> 30:12 [SPEAKER_03]: All right, interesting.
30:14 --> 30:16 [SPEAKER_06]: Can't talk more about that yet, but we'll get there.
30:17 --> 30:18 [SPEAKER_06]: Maybe we'll get there a little bit in season two.
30:19 --> 30:22 [SPEAKER_06]: Not sure because they're moving a lot of stuff up.
30:23 --> 30:38 [SPEAKER_06]: So we got we get a lot of other minor characters introduced we get Alvita as this you know kind of cartoonish villain We get Axe and Morgan on the other side on the marine side also kind of a cartoon is villain and I guess you like how my phone is new haircut
30:39 --> 30:55 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, a new haircut, no, but I mean, how Mepo starts out as a cartoonish, rich and titled boy villain, and then goes on an arc over the season.
30:55 --> 31:00 [SPEAKER_03]: So I did not like how Mepo, when he was introduced, but by the end he had earned my liking.
31:02 --> 31:05 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, he does have a good arc.
31:05 --> 31:13 [SPEAKER_06]: The, they emphasized it more in the live action than I thought they would have based on, you know, how much they're in the anime.
31:14 --> 31:15 [SPEAKER_06]: But I thought it was good.
31:15 --> 31:20 [SPEAKER_06]: I thought that all the casting for all these was really good.
31:21 --> 31:32 [SPEAKER_06]: Kobe was a trans actor and I think that that's really good representation to have somebody playing in there, you know, they're preferred pronouns
31:32 --> 31:35 [SPEAKER_03]: I never, yeah, Kobe, like, just seemed to me.
31:35 --> 31:41 [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know the character, obviously, again, from the anime, but just, I, the character was very clear to me.
31:41 --> 31:50 [SPEAKER_03]: You know, what kind of, like, this is a very nice person who has someone who believes in the system, but still has morals.
31:51 --> 31:51 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
31:51 --> 31:51 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
31:52 --> 31:55 [SPEAKER_06]: And Kobe, I think questions a little more.
31:55 --> 32:21 [SPEAKER_06]: in the live action that he does in at least openly then he does in the anime and I appreciate that they played up that aspect of him because it's good to have this stuff voiced right like because it's very easy to be like all right there's a world government clearly the marines are like not good faith actors in a lot of these situations these are all bad right but now moving
32:21 --> 32:27 [SPEAKER_06]: you know, that character development for Kobe, I think really helps to complicate the dynamics.
32:27 --> 32:33 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, I feel like Kobe is like the quintessential boy scout and the uniform emphasizes.
32:33 --> 32:34 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
32:34 --> 32:34 [SPEAKER_06]: Oh, yeah.
32:36 --> 32:37 [SPEAKER_06]: Pretty funny all the uniforms.
32:39 --> 32:40 [SPEAKER_06]: And it really goes with Helnabo's hair.
32:42 --> 32:44 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
32:44 --> 32:49 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, Helnabo sucks at first.
32:49 --> 32:53 [SPEAKER_06]: some of the first like cartoonish fight moments with Axan Morgan.
32:53 --> 32:56 [SPEAKER_06]: Was this jarring to you or like what do you think of all that?
32:57 --> 33:02 [SPEAKER_03]: No, I was expecting cartoonish fights, so I didn't, yeah, it doesn't even stand out to me, per se.
33:03 --> 33:13 [SPEAKER_03]: I guess I was surprised that after this, you know, after Axan Morgan is sort of deposed within the Marines that we didn't see him again all season.
33:14 --> 33:18 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, that's kind of part for the course.
33:18 --> 33:20 [SPEAKER_06]: He's not that big in the show either.
33:20 --> 33:24 [SPEAKER_06]: Man, I keep saying the show, but I have to differentiate.
33:26 --> 33:43 [SPEAKER_06]: So, by the way, I should mention, if you're a long time listener and you see that these descriptions of arcs are familiar, that is because I did recycle them with slight tweaks to match, they are my old anime descriptions, but I'm there, you know, it's basically the same thing.
33:43 --> 33:45 [SPEAKER_06]: So I just try to make sure you, yeah.
33:45 --> 33:46 [SPEAKER_06]: It's going on.
33:46 --> 33:46 [SPEAKER_06]: Yep.
33:47 --> 33:49 [SPEAKER_06]: Works harder and not harder folks.
33:49 --> 33:54 [SPEAKER_03]: So we, so you did, you did how many episodes with Moses?
33:54 --> 33:58 [SPEAKER_06]: I mean, you did, so we, how many episodes did you cover?
33:59 --> 34:01 [SPEAKER_06]: We cover the first 100, I think.
34:02 --> 34:12 [SPEAKER_03]: Okay, and that is equivalent to this first season, I can get you an actual count, give me one second.
34:12 --> 34:13 [SPEAKER_06]: Okay.
34:13 --> 34:18 [SPEAKER_06]: I have gotten the actual count of what's going on here.
34:18 --> 34:21 [SPEAKER_06]: It's actually fewer than I thought.
34:23 --> 34:27 [SPEAKER_06]: This is only up through episode 44 of the anime that we got.
34:27 --> 34:28 [SPEAKER_06]: Okay.
34:28 --> 34:53 [SPEAKER_06]: uh... they did bring some stuff uh... ahead like they did do some stuff from later some reveals and things like that but uh... yeah we didn't get that far and i will tell you that i i think next season they're trying to get through episode ninety one so it not that much more okay so they can do so many seasons yeah people are kind of questioning that like we
34:54 --> 35:04 [SPEAKER_06]: are we going to, I mean, the thing is later on, the seasons, like the sagas, take up more episodes and you could probably condense it further than you have been condense in here.
35:04 --> 35:09 [SPEAKER_06]: And you need to have a cell of foundation of the characters, right, of the main characters of the straw hats.
35:09 --> 35:12 [SPEAKER_06]: So I glad that they took their time with season one and season two.
35:12 --> 35:13 [SPEAKER_03]: No, that makes sense.
35:13 --> 35:14 [SPEAKER_03]: That makes sense.
35:14 --> 35:25 [SPEAKER_03]: It's like, when they were planning the full will of time adaptation, it was just understood that, yeah, they were later arcs that, all of us knew like, oh, yeah, they can totally contents that are just taken out.
35:26 --> 35:27 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
35:27 --> 35:36 [SPEAKER_06]: The tough thing is, there's not a lot that they can fully take out, but there is plenty of like, again, we're walking towards the fight now.
35:36 --> 35:45 [SPEAKER_06]: There's like a good five-minute section where they're walking towards our long village, with dramatic music playing.
35:46 --> 35:48 [SPEAKER_03]: And no conversation, even?
35:48 --> 35:58 [SPEAKER_06]: No, just music, and you just have the dramatic fight music, the dramatic marching music, and Lou Fee just having a tough look on his face and they're all marching.
35:59 --> 36:00 [SPEAKER_02]: All right, cool.
36:01 --> 36:02 [SPEAKER_06]: That's one piece, baby.
36:02 --> 36:02 [SPEAKER_06]: You know?
36:04 --> 36:04 [SPEAKER_06]: That's what it is.
36:06 --> 36:08 [SPEAKER_06]: Why don't we go to Orange Town next?
36:08 --> 36:36 [SPEAKER_06]: Okay, so part of me reusing my old description is I forgot to mention that Nami did show up in the first arc and they did move that up because she doesn't really show up until orange town in in the end, okay, so I'll I'll read this one because I'm going to edit it as I go here, so Luffy and his rag tag group of friends ends up in orange town ruled by buggy the clown pirate.
36:37 --> 36:50 [SPEAKER_06]: Uh, Luffy is betrayed by Nami and case by buggy, Nami and Zoro work together to free Luffy before Luffy fights and defeats buggy and his chop chop devil fruit powers.
36:51 --> 36:55 [SPEAKER_06]: Nami travels with the crew, maybe not joining them.
36:55 --> 37:16 [SPEAKER_06]: uh... but they are going to take one of the ships and head out of there we also get flashbacks of luffy eating the gum gum fruit out of shanks is loot and being saved by shanks with shanks losing an arm now we should have talked about nomi in the last episode but i guess you get a little bit more of her in this one first of all first impressions on nomi
37:17 --> 37:42 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I mean, she's definitely, we talked about her being the cynic of the group, and I noticed that she was the only one that they weren't like, she was one of the first and reduced, but I definitely started to notice at some point, we are not seeing her backstory, but then they do, of course, give that tease where, oh, we even talked about their snail communication technology.
37:42 --> 37:52 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, yeah, those are super fun, but a bit of bit of bit of bit of bit of So we, I mean, this is one of the things that clearly this is an anime concept.
37:52 --> 37:54 [SPEAKER_03]: They're like just make a lot of action And I'm glad they did.
37:55 --> 38:03 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, the transponder snails are super hilarious a lot of the technology is snails There's like broadcaster snails at one point It's that's not even a spoiler.
38:03 --> 38:04 [SPEAKER_06]: That's just more close enough.
38:04 --> 38:05 [SPEAKER_06]: You know
38:06 --> 38:16 [SPEAKER_03]: you but she has like a little snail earpiece that we see her at some point that she's like communicating with someone, you're like, oh, something shady is going on with her.
38:16 --> 38:22 [SPEAKER_03]: So I spent most of the season suspicious of Nami until we finally got her backstory.
38:23 --> 38:23 [SPEAKER_06]: It's tough.
38:24 --> 38:26 [SPEAKER_06]: They don't make her as suspicious in the anime.
38:26 --> 38:34 [SPEAKER_06]: I'm kind of glad that they made her a little more suspicious in the live action because it made it less jarring when she just runs off with the ship later.
38:35 --> 38:45 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I did think I did assume that she was for a good reason or whatever, but I was just like there's definitely another shoe that's going to drop about this character at some point.
38:45 --> 38:48 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, and I'm also glad that we get it out of the way pretty early.
38:48 --> 38:51 [SPEAKER_06]: Like word season one, we're putting on me fully in the crew later.
38:53 --> 38:56 [SPEAKER_06]: But yeah, you know, she was us and we learn what happens later.
38:56 --> 39:00 [SPEAKER_06]: What do you think about buggy?
39:01 --> 39:06 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I mean, buggy is, like, so well designed.
39:06 --> 39:17 [SPEAKER_03]: I just kept staring at his nose and how they made it, like, like, it's part of his face in the sense that it has, like, real nose pores on it, you know what I mean?
39:18 --> 39:19 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah.
39:19 --> 39:22 [SPEAKER_03]: Like, just the way it's textured and everything.
39:22 --> 39:50 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, buggy is an interesting one and I'm glad that buggy by the end of the season becomes a complex not even quite front of me, but I could see him getting to the front of me you know point like this girl My lips are sealed okay And I'm not even saying either way on that it's uh it's come get it
39:51 --> 40:20 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, and that's the sense that I got already it's complicated and it is kind of fun that like yeah buggy can do has these chop chop powers, but it also means that, you know, you can just separate his head from his body and there's not much he can do until he can really, you know, bring himself back to that.
40:20 --> 40:22 [SPEAKER_06]: This seems to be a pretty weak one.
40:22 --> 40:22 [SPEAKER_06]: Right.
40:24 --> 40:25 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, that's stuff.
40:25 --> 40:25 [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.
40:25 --> 40:31 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, because it also showed like he can He can break out of anything.
40:31 --> 40:38 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, buggy, you know, you'll learn some more about double for powers later They, I mean, they do have part of it here, which is you can't swim anymore, right?
40:38 --> 40:40 [SPEAKER_06]: And the sea will make you really weak.
40:41 --> 40:41 [SPEAKER_06]: Right.
40:41 --> 40:42 [SPEAKER_06]: The sea's angry at you now
40:43 --> 40:49 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, I mean, yeah, I'm curious about like why that specific disadvantage.
40:49 --> 40:55 [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know if it's just because or if they ever explain that other beyond the sea is angry.
40:56 --> 40:58 [SPEAKER_06]: I'm about 800 episodes in and I don't know yet.
40:59 --> 40:59 [SPEAKER_06]: I'll just say that.
41:00 --> 41:01 [SPEAKER_06]: I just genuinely don't know.
41:01 --> 41:02 [SPEAKER_06]: With the spirit.
41:02 --> 41:02 [SPEAKER_06]: Okay.
41:02 --> 41:02 [SPEAKER_06]: All right.
41:02 --> 41:03 [SPEAKER_06]: It just is what it is.
41:05 --> 41:05 [SPEAKER_03]: Gotcha.
41:05 --> 41:09 [SPEAKER_03]: And so there's no like super swimming gum gum or devil fruit.
41:10 --> 41:11 [SPEAKER_06]: No.
41:11 --> 41:12 [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
41:13 --> 41:14 [SPEAKER_06]: No superswimmy devil fruit.
41:14 --> 41:25 [SPEAKER_06]: If you touch water and your devil fruit user you cannot do anything that would be a fun twist Wouldn't it We also get shanks.
41:25 --> 41:29 [SPEAKER_06]: We get the back the backstory of shanks and luffy.
41:29 --> 41:31 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, yeah about a that whole thing
41:31 --> 41:41 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I mean I was waiting for Shanks to show up and I'm really glad about how that all came together with certain characters at the end of the season.
41:42 --> 41:49 [SPEAKER_03]: I think it's lovely, the both Luffy and what's his face to the chef?
41:50 --> 41:50 [SPEAKER_03]: What's it, Rajee?
41:51 --> 41:51 [SPEAKER_06]: Sanji.
41:51 --> 41:59 [SPEAKER_03]: Sanji, that they have people in their
41:59 --> 41:59 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, right?
41:59 --> 42:05 [SPEAKER_06]: Like, you know, Luffy might not have too much support around as a kid, but he had that.
42:06 --> 42:10 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, although arguably Sanji's case that was worse Jesus.
42:10 --> 42:12 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
42:13 --> 42:13 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, man.
42:14 --> 42:22 [SPEAKER_03]: But yeah, I mean, I liked Shanks and I was like hoping to see him back, but I figured it would be a later storyline.
42:22 --> 42:25 [SPEAKER_03]: So I'm glad they seem to be setting something up for a season two.
42:26 --> 42:29 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I don't know exactly how they're going to weave him in.
42:29 --> 42:31 [SPEAKER_06]: You know, obviously, they've been garp a lot more.
42:32 --> 42:34 [SPEAKER_06]: So they could bring in Shanks earlier and they might.
42:35 --> 42:36 [SPEAKER_06]: I love Shanks.
42:36 --> 42:40 [SPEAKER_06]: I think he's a great character and I'm looking forward to seeing what they do with him in the live action.
42:40 --> 42:44 [SPEAKER_06]: But, you know, he's just like such a fatherly figure deluvian, right?
42:44 --> 42:46 [SPEAKER_06]: And that's so nice to see.
42:46 --> 42:56 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, yeah, I do wish we had a little bit more of Luffy's mother who, by the way, like they showed, they flashed her at one point, you know, being proud about her son later.
42:56 --> 42:59 [SPEAKER_03]: And I'm like, she looks like the same age as him.
42:59 --> 43:00 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm sorry.
43:00 --> 43:00 [SPEAKER_03]: She's 30.
43:01 --> 43:04 [SPEAKER_06]: Is, um, okay.
43:05 --> 43:07 [SPEAKER_06]: Let's talk about that next season.
43:08 --> 43:10 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, no, is it not his mother?
43:11 --> 43:13 [SPEAKER_06]: I don't believe that was his mother.
43:13 --> 43:14 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, okay.
43:14 --> 43:15 [SPEAKER_03]: Well, they could have clarified that for me.
43:16 --> 43:16 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
43:16 --> 43:16 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
43:16 --> 43:16 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
43:16 --> 43:17 [SPEAKER_06]: They could have been a little clear.
43:18 --> 43:24 [SPEAKER_03]: Because I mean, I'm not sure what Luffy's whole situation is other than he looked up to shanks.
43:24 --> 43:27 [SPEAKER_06]: If they follow the anime, you're not getting this for another like few seasons.
43:28 --> 43:29 [SPEAKER_03]: Boy, okay.
43:30 --> 43:31 [SPEAKER_06]: I'm just telling you.
43:31 --> 43:33 [SPEAKER_06]: I would hold your breath for Luffy's backstory.
43:33 --> 43:37 [SPEAKER_03]: For Luffy's backstory.
43:37 --> 43:38 [SPEAKER_03]: All right.
43:39 --> 43:39 [SPEAKER_03]: We'll see.
43:40 --> 43:40 [SPEAKER_03]: Maybe, though.
43:41 --> 43:43 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, since he, as you said,
43:43 --> 43:44 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, that is his real-grandfather.
43:45 --> 43:47 [SPEAKER_06]: I will say, I will just confirm that.
43:47 --> 43:48 [SPEAKER_06]: We don't have to speculate on that forever.
43:49 --> 43:52 [SPEAKER_06]: But the other pieces are going to get trickier.
43:52 --> 43:53 [SPEAKER_03]: What's the generation in between?
43:54 --> 43:54 [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
43:54 --> 43:56 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, the generation in between is very tricky.
43:57 --> 43:57 [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
43:59 --> 44:29 [SPEAKER_06]: all right so what else we have here you know you get the you get the creepy circus everybody was thirsty over buggy yeah i mean the actor i know the actor from other things and he is an attractive man but um the nose i'm sorry it doesn't do it for me but think of all the things he can do with it like what is his album is called central
44:29 --> 44:38 [SPEAKER_06]: So, you also get Garp, this is the first arc that I believe has Garp, did you trust him?
44:38 --> 44:39 [SPEAKER_06]: How do you feel about him?
44:40 --> 44:46 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, I had an inherent distrust of all of the Marines except for Kobe, right off the bat.
44:46 --> 44:56 [SPEAKER_03]: So no, I did not trust him, and I suppose the fact that he kind of overthrows or would ever accents and says, like, no, that's not how we do it.
44:56 --> 45:02 [SPEAKER_03]: I suppose that's supposed to say he is more moral than accents at least.
45:02 --> 45:04 [SPEAKER_03]: So there's that.
45:04 --> 45:08 [SPEAKER_03]: But no, I spent most of the season distressing, Garp.
45:08 --> 45:11 [SPEAKER_03]: And I'm not sure that I trust him by the end.
45:11 --> 45:12 [SPEAKER_03]: We, I don't know.
45:13 --> 45:20 [SPEAKER_03]: Like, especially after we find out that Lou Fee's his grandfather, and then he's like, no, all kid gloves off.
45:20 --> 45:21 [SPEAKER_03]: Go after them hard.
45:22 --> 45:23 [SPEAKER_03]: He wants to play like a grown-up.
45:23 --> 45:26 [SPEAKER_03]: We're going to like, what, what, you are terrible.
45:26 --> 45:27 [SPEAKER_03]: What is a family?
45:29 --> 45:30 [SPEAKER_06]: This family isn't saying.
45:30 --> 45:32 [SPEAKER_06]: And he will only get more insane.
45:32 --> 45:52 [SPEAKER_06]: But you know, I think that Garp is Garp and Luffy are kind of character studies and like, believe in helping people meet their dreams, but also see morality through different lenses, like seeing like, I can do good from within the system, versus I need to do good outside of the system.
45:53 --> 45:57 [SPEAKER_06]: Those are opposing views and they both have merit in a lot of ways.
45:57 --> 46:00 [SPEAKER_06]: But Garp is certainly firmly in the system.
46:00 --> 46:02 [SPEAKER_06]: He is a tried and shremerine.
46:02 --> 46:03 [SPEAKER_06]: There's a reason he's a vice admiral.
46:03 --> 46:06 [SPEAKER_06]: He's a very high rank in this military.
46:08 --> 46:08 [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
46:09 --> 46:27 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I mean, he seems like an interesting character, and I like all of the dynamics that this show sets up where it's not just like the marines or the bad guys, you know, bad police, it really does give more complex dynamics on that side of things as well.
46:27 --> 46:28 [SPEAKER_03]: So that's a good thing.
46:29 --> 46:31 [SPEAKER_06]: Don't worry, we're going to have so much world building in the show.
46:32 --> 46:34 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, there's going to be layers and layers of
46:35 --> 46:37 [SPEAKER_02]: get me the more, me the Lord.
46:38 --> 46:40 [SPEAKER_06]: There's gonna be a lot of stuff going on.
46:41 --> 46:44 [SPEAKER_06]: Again, this is a Wheel of Time type show.
46:44 --> 46:50 [SPEAKER_06]: This is, you know, slow burn, lower drop in, world building, character development.
46:50 --> 46:51 [SPEAKER_06]: Let's go.
46:51 --> 46:52 [SPEAKER_01]: All right, I'm in.
46:54 --> 46:58 [SPEAKER_06]: Let's take a break Alicia and we'll come back and we will talk about syrup village.
46:59 --> 46:59 [SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
47:10 --> 47:12 [SPEAKER_06]: Alright, let's go on to syrup village.
47:13 --> 47:19 [SPEAKER_06]: Luffy Zoro and Nami arrive in Sierra Village, a quiet village with a loudmouth liar who can't stop shouting about pirates.
47:20 --> 47:26 [SPEAKER_06]: The liar Usap has become close with Kaya, the local rich orphan with a kindly butler named Klawador.
47:27 --> 47:33 [SPEAKER_06]: After discovering the Klawador is actually the pirate captain, Kuro, and is plotting to kill Kaya for her money.
47:34 --> 47:37 [SPEAKER_06]: The straw hats and Usap team up to save Kaya and the town.
47:37 --> 47:41 [SPEAKER_06]: After saving Kaya, they are gifted their new ship, the going Mary.
47:41 --> 47:43 [SPEAKER_06]: you stopped a side to join the crew.
47:45 --> 47:51 [SPEAKER_03]: Right, and this is where Nami was so annoyed that Luffy was correct about him just finding someone to give them the perfect ship.
47:53 --> 47:58 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I mean, that's the kind of optimism that I just love about Luffy, right?
47:58 --> 48:00 [SPEAKER_06]: Like he's like, oh, no, somebody will give us a ship.
48:01 --> 48:03 [SPEAKER_03]: It's like, why would people someone just give us a ship?
48:05 --> 48:06 [SPEAKER_03]: But he was right.
48:06 --> 48:07 [SPEAKER_06]: They didn't have to do quite a lot of work for it.
48:07 --> 48:08 [SPEAKER_06]: And I'm like, hi.
48:09 --> 48:09 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, that's true.
48:09 --> 48:16 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, yeah, as soon as I saw Kaya, I knew exactly the entire situation.
48:16 --> 48:18 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm like, she's clearly being poisoned.
48:18 --> 48:18 [SPEAKER_03]: Look at her lips.
48:19 --> 48:20 [SPEAKER_03]: Why does nobody see this?
48:21 --> 48:23 [SPEAKER_03]: It's clearly that guy.
48:23 --> 48:24 [SPEAKER_03]: That guy's no good.
48:24 --> 48:30 [SPEAKER_03]: And then, of course, they do the reveal like, oh, everything that's a viral blue color
48:30 --> 48:59 [SPEAKER_03]: poisonous like surprise surprise yeah so this was maybe I liked I like to getting to know Usopp and Kaya and I'm wondering about part of me almost hoped Kaya would go with them although I knew she wouldn't but yeah I this was one that I saw like the entire arc playing out before it really even started so I was like all right come on go ahead now let's let's get to the end of
49:00 --> 49:03 [SPEAKER_06]: Kai was giving me a Sally Sparrow vibe from Dr. Who.
49:04 --> 49:04 [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
49:05 --> 49:05 [SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
49:06 --> 49:07 [SPEAKER_03]: I guess I can see that.
49:07 --> 49:11 [SPEAKER_03]: He's very sweet and, um, yeah, innocuous.
49:12 --> 49:19 [SPEAKER_06]: Anyway, um, I think that this was the arc that suffered the most from the contraction from the compression.
49:20 --> 49:26 [SPEAKER_06]: you know, they do a better job of like making you do a, is he bad?
49:26 --> 49:30 [SPEAKER_06]: Is he not with cloud or a few episodes in the original show?
49:30 --> 49:36 [SPEAKER_06]: I don't think they did that quite as well here like you said, you can kind of immediately be like, okay, that's the villain.
49:37 --> 49:39 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
49:39 --> 49:39 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
49:40 --> 49:47 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, I guess they, they didn't like waste too much time before they revealed in the kitchen, the whole poison thing.
49:47 --> 49:48 [SPEAKER_03]: But then it's like,
49:49 --> 50:07 [SPEAKER_03]: Luffy, I have questions about, okay, I said, I'm not going to like, stick science to this, but how does Luffy, he's able to put things into his mouth and then like spit them back up like the map, for example, because of like the rubber insides, how does he absorb food?
50:09 --> 50:13 [SPEAKER_06]: I'm overthinking about this idea.
50:13 --> 50:13 [SPEAKER_06]: There's no.
50:14 --> 50:16 [SPEAKER_06]: Trust me, Luffy's thing is absorbing food.
50:16 --> 50:18 [SPEAKER_06]: So he does it very effectively.
50:19 --> 50:20 [SPEAKER_06]: He loves to.
50:20 --> 50:21 [SPEAKER_06]: I can't answer that question.
50:21 --> 50:22 [SPEAKER_06]: I don't think anybody could.
50:22 --> 50:23 [SPEAKER_06]: I don't think your Chiro Odo could.
50:24 --> 50:24 [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
50:24 --> 50:25 [SPEAKER_03]: I do.
50:25 --> 50:28 [SPEAKER_03]: The actor does really sell me on how much Luffy loves food.
50:29 --> 50:30 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
50:30 --> 50:31 [SPEAKER_06]: He does a really good job of that like.
50:32 --> 50:33 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
50:33 --> 50:33 [SPEAKER_03]: Hey.
50:33 --> 50:34 [SPEAKER_03]: Once the next meal.
50:36 --> 50:41 [SPEAKER_06]: and and in the fact that he just downcy and higher potting survives is absolutely absurd.
50:42 --> 50:46 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, and then he throws it most of it up and I was like, well, is that because of the rubber stomach?
50:46 --> 50:47 [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.
50:49 --> 50:53 [SPEAKER_06]: Maybe that's why he remains pretty skinny is he's eating a lot, but he can't digest most of it.
50:54 --> 50:56 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, that's what that's what I was wondering.
50:57 --> 50:59 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I'm not aware of any explanation.
51:00 --> 51:03 [SPEAKER_06]: I mean, in the anime, of course, you have the ridiculous
51:03 --> 51:08 [SPEAKER_06]: You know, huge and round for like five minutes after heads.
51:08 --> 51:22 [SPEAKER_03]: Can we talk about the age of these characters because for some reason going in, I thought that they were gonna be like teenagers but then they started talking about drinking alcohol and stuff and then I looked up the ages of the actors and they are, I think Luffy is the youngest.
51:23 --> 51:29 [SPEAKER_03]: He's, I think, yeah, it kills me that people are born after the year 2000.
51:28 --> 51:38 [SPEAKER_03]: I think he's born in 2006, and I think most of the, I think Luffy and Kobe are the youngest, and most of the rest of the crew is around 30 years old.
51:38 --> 51:39 [SPEAKER_03]: They were born in 1996.
51:39 --> 51:43 [SPEAKER_03]: And then shanks the old man at age 40.
51:46 --> 51:56 [SPEAKER_06]: So yeah, there's going to be, you know, there's, there's other crew members that we haven't met yet that might be a little older, but most of them in the anime are supposed to be late teens early 20s.
51:56 --> 52:04 [SPEAKER_03]: But they are, I mean, because the fact that, with all the, there's a lot of drinking alcohol, so I guess they are all meant to be adults, right?
52:05 --> 52:10 [SPEAKER_06]: It could be, or it could be that they're in a different world with pirates and a lot more swashbuckling.
52:10 --> 52:12 [SPEAKER_03]: Right, I guess the American can be the audience.
52:13 --> 52:16 [SPEAKER_06]: I think they're never going to give an age in the live action, you know?
52:16 --> 52:18 [SPEAKER_03]: All right, all right, fair, fair, fair, fair.
52:19 --> 52:38 [SPEAKER_06]: especially like if if this is going to go on years and years you're going to have like Emily Rudd right now is 33 I think she's one of the older ones in the cast and that's Nami and she's going to be 40 by the time we're on like season five you know and and so how long can we sell these characters as big and they're early 20s or should we just ignore it?
52:38 --> 52:39 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
52:39 --> 52:46 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, I say, I guess just ignore it, but I was just wondering if Luffy's supposed to be the same age as the others, or if he is meant to be younger.
52:47 --> 52:51 [SPEAKER_06]: If you look up in the one piece of Wiki, which I wouldn't recommend because it's going to spoil.
52:51 --> 52:52 [SPEAKER_06]: Thanks for you.
52:52 --> 52:56 [SPEAKER_06]: But Luffy, I think it's supposed to be 17 at the beginning of the anime.
52:56 --> 52:58 [SPEAKER_06]: Okay.
52:58 --> 53:01 [SPEAKER_06]: And then the others are supposed to be like a couple years older than them.
53:01 --> 53:01 [SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
53:02 --> 53:02 [SPEAKER_02]: All right.
53:02 --> 53:02 [SPEAKER_06]: Most of them.
53:03 --> 53:04 [SPEAKER_02]: There we go.
53:06 --> 53:07 [SPEAKER_06]: But I don't know what they're doing with the live action.
53:08 --> 53:11 [SPEAKER_06]: I think they're just going to be purposefully ambiguous so that nobody asks questions.
53:12 --> 53:13 [SPEAKER_03]: Gotcha.
53:13 --> 53:16 [SPEAKER_06]: Like Alicia, stop asking so many questions.
53:17 --> 53:19 [SPEAKER_03]: Sorry, can't turn off the journalism mind.
53:21 --> 53:24 [SPEAKER_06]: So Claude or obviously very bad guy, he's moving super fast.
53:24 --> 53:26 [SPEAKER_06]: We don't really get an explanation for that.
53:26 --> 53:29 [SPEAKER_06]: He's not a devil for a user, he just does that.
53:31 --> 53:31 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, really.
53:31 --> 53:33 [SPEAKER_03]: I just assume he's not a devil for user.
53:34 --> 53:34 [SPEAKER_06]: Nope.
53:35 --> 53:39 [SPEAKER_06]: No, I think I can explain it with something that is revealed later.
53:39 --> 53:40 [SPEAKER_06]: I can't do that now.
53:41 --> 53:42 [SPEAKER_03]: And he has the claws, too.
53:43 --> 53:44 [SPEAKER_06]: The claws are just in his gloves.
53:46 --> 53:51 [SPEAKER_03]: So they just like, he just, the gloves are somehow magical that they hide the claws.
53:52 --> 53:55 [SPEAKER_06]: And then they, they're like retractable in the gloves for some reason.
53:55 --> 53:56 [SPEAKER_06]: That's at least how it is in the anime.
53:57 --> 53:59 [SPEAKER_06]: I guess they don't really do the mechanics in the live action.
53:59 --> 54:05 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, yeah, because they showed like someone examining the gloves and they just looked like normal gloves.
54:05 --> 54:10 [SPEAKER_03]: There was no hard parts that cloths could retract into, so it's just magic.
54:11 --> 54:13 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I think that's safe to say.
54:13 --> 54:14 [SPEAKER_03]: Okay, all right.
54:15 --> 54:17 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I don't know, don't poke too many holes for us.
54:18 --> 54:20 [SPEAKER_03]: All right, and the speed is just magic.
54:20 --> 54:22 [SPEAKER_03]: It's not double-free.
54:22 --> 54:23 [SPEAKER_06]: It's something.
54:23 --> 54:24 [SPEAKER_03]: It's something.
54:24 --> 54:32 [SPEAKER_06]: It's likely something that is explained later, like a technique that's explained later, but I can't really go into it now without some spoilers.
54:32 --> 54:34 [SPEAKER_06]: It's a mechanic thing, but...
54:34 --> 54:42 [SPEAKER_06]: You know, I think this was kind of early drafts of what Odo was eventually going to work into the power system.
54:43 --> 54:44 [SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
54:46 --> 55:12 [SPEAKER_06]: so we've got we got this whole situation they get their ship us up you know we didn't really talk about him you know he had a whole crew in the original anime he had he had three like small children he had three like eight year olds who would just follow him around as his crew for captain us up and i kind of missed that i wish they had not these little runs but they they cut it out of the live action did you like that i'd like to stop um...
55:13 --> 55:28 [SPEAKER_03]: that does explain a lot like it makes him less delusional if he did have eight worlds following him around at least, but I can see why from a practicality standpoint they didn't want to have to include children in this, it would have been a special idea.
55:28 --> 55:33 [SPEAKER_06]: They really condense this arc into just being at the mansion like they were all over the island and the anime.
55:34 --> 55:38 [SPEAKER_03]: but it's the practicalities of filming like there's so many restrictions when you fill them with children too.
55:39 --> 55:40 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
55:40 --> 55:41 [SPEAKER_03]: Which is good.
55:41 --> 55:43 [SPEAKER_03]: We, you know, child life belongs to your good.
55:44 --> 55:48 [SPEAKER_03]: But yeah, I understand that might have been impractical for a number of reasons.
55:49 --> 55:53 [SPEAKER_06]: We've been talking about that because in the pit, there's a baby Jane Doe.
55:53 --> 55:55 [SPEAKER_06]: There's a baby nobody knows who it belongs to.
55:56 --> 55:57 [SPEAKER_06]: And that's not even a big spoiler.
55:57 --> 55:59 [SPEAKER_06]: It's like the first episode of season two it happened.
55:59 --> 56:01 [SPEAKER_06]: So.
56:01 --> 56:08 [SPEAKER_06]: But anyway, David and I have been talking about how like the babies barely in it because they have to keep like working around the baby.
56:08 --> 56:14 [SPEAKER_03]: I want to assume that they have like five babies because at least when you're a baby it's easy the babies babies look a lot alike.
56:15 --> 56:17 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, exactly exactly.
56:17 --> 56:18 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
56:18 --> 56:24 [SPEAKER_03]: Um, yeah, I mean, Usup, I feel like he's the of the crew is.
56:25 --> 56:41 [SPEAKER_03]: the one that I know, the least, like I said, I said, I was saying before that Zoro's like mysterious, but I feel like I know the least about Usup other than he loves Kaya in ways that are unclear to me by the end of this.
56:41 --> 56:46 [SPEAKER_03]: Like I'm not sure whether I'm supposed to take him in Kaya's romantic, I guess so, or what?
56:47 --> 56:54 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I, you know, one of the rules that Otas had for his characters is that none of the straw hats are allowed to get into long-term relationships.
56:55 --> 56:57 [SPEAKER_06]: because he thinks that that would make the story boring.
56:57 --> 56:58 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, okay.
56:59 --> 57:02 [SPEAKER_06]: So I'll just say that like it's just not gonna happen long term.
57:03 --> 57:06 [SPEAKER_06]: I don't know, maybe maybe in the end, we'll go back to Cairo.
57:06 --> 57:07 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, okay.
57:07 --> 57:11 [SPEAKER_06]: But you know, during the arcs, they're not gonna get them to any long term relationship.
57:11 --> 57:16 [SPEAKER_03]: I saw people were shipping Nami and Zoro, so I guess that's not happening.
57:17 --> 57:19 [SPEAKER_06]: I don't think that's gonna happen.
57:20 --> 57:33 [SPEAKER_03]: I think, you know, I don't understand this, like, I think not enough stories, realize that there's interesting story to be mined in how people stay together.
57:33 --> 57:38 [SPEAKER_03]: Like it doesn't have to be that 90s TV kind of thing, like where, oh, they got together and they're happy.
57:38 --> 57:39 [SPEAKER_03]: So now we have to break them up.
57:39 --> 57:42 [SPEAKER_03]: Like, no, show how people frickin' work through problems.
57:42 --> 57:44 [SPEAKER_03]: This is why our world is so broken.
57:44 --> 57:47 [SPEAKER_03]: We don't model good behavior.
57:47 --> 57:48 [SPEAKER_06]: It's all about the chase.
57:49 --> 57:50 [SPEAKER_06]: It's a, right?
57:50 --> 57:51 [SPEAKER_06]: Just said drama.
57:51 --> 57:58 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I have recently read interesting media where they do explore that a little bit more the way that you'd prefer.
57:58 --> 58:00 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, this is not it.
58:01 --> 58:02 [SPEAKER_06]: This is just not going to be it.
58:02 --> 58:03 [SPEAKER_02]: All right, I'll drop that.
58:03 --> 58:06 [SPEAKER_06]: But I mean, they do also a better job in the anime.
58:06 --> 58:10 [SPEAKER_06]: This is, again, I think this is the arc that suffered the most from the compression.
58:10 --> 58:20 [SPEAKER_06]: They do a better job of showing like Kaya Sik and Usopp is the only one who's coming to her window and telling her stories and even if they're made up, she just has fun listening.
58:21 --> 58:21 [SPEAKER_06]: Right?
58:21 --> 58:22 [SPEAKER_06]: She just has a friend.
58:25 --> 58:26 [SPEAKER_06]: I don't know that.
58:26 --> 58:50 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, it's interesting, it's interesting that like because you can tell that I think they convey that well, you know, where she just enjoys hearing the stories, it's funny like how they introduce Kaya is, you think that Usof might just be delusional because of the way the staff is treating him and trying to bundle him out of there and then Kaya shows up and it's clear like, no, they really are friends.
58:50 --> 58:51 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, exactly.
58:51 --> 58:52 [SPEAKER_03]: It's just the bag guys.
58:53 --> 59:05 [SPEAKER_03]: But you do see that tension where she enjoys Usopp's stories, you know, this is a good diversion for her and she cares about Usopp as a friend, but she, she's like, I know these stories are all bullshit.
59:05 --> 59:17 [SPEAKER_03]: So then later, when they're trying to tell her that her own life is in danger, you realize she doesn't, she cares about Usopp, but doesn't trust him the way you would hope for and someone who's your best friend.
59:18 --> 59:19 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
59:19 --> 59:20 [SPEAKER_06]: It's tough, too, right?
59:20 --> 59:21 [SPEAKER_06]: Because he is really lying every day.
59:21 --> 59:24 [SPEAKER_06]: They, I hadn't watched this episode in a while.
59:25 --> 59:28 [SPEAKER_06]: Did they go into why he shouts for the pirates every day?
59:28 --> 59:36 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, because, um, because his, of his mom, yeah, it's a little unclear.
59:36 --> 59:43 [SPEAKER_03]: Like I was wondering if there's more into his, the story about his mom, like because I was wondering if his mom was also poisoned and died.
59:44 --> 59:47 [SPEAKER_06]: his mom died, but she was sick.
59:47 --> 59:49 [SPEAKER_06]: Like she said, oh, your father will come back for you one day.
59:49 --> 59:54 [SPEAKER_06]: And, and she, he would keep going, like, oh, dad's gonna come back.
59:54 --> 59:55 [SPEAKER_06]: He's coming back today, you know?
59:55 --> 59:56 [SPEAKER_03]: Right.
59:56 --> 59:57 [SPEAKER_06]: And then we find out his thing.
59:58 --> 01:00:04 [SPEAKER_03]: His father is part of or was part of Shanks crew, but I don't think we've seen his father yet that I know of.
01:00:04 --> 01:00:05 [SPEAKER_03]: Or I don't believe we've seen him.
01:00:05 --> 01:00:07 [SPEAKER_03]: No, Luffy apparently knew him.
01:00:07 --> 01:00:10 [SPEAKER_03]: So I guess we don't, but I don't remember who it is.
01:00:10 --> 01:00:13 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, he's a, I think his name is Yassop.
01:00:13 --> 01:00:19 [SPEAKER_06]: Okay, that is, that is Usab's father, you know, I guess that's family naming convention, is you're gonna stop at the end of your name.
01:00:20 --> 01:00:23 [SPEAKER_06]: But, yeah, I don't think we've seen much of him yet.
01:00:24 --> 01:00:26 [SPEAKER_06]: We'll say, we'll say for now.
01:00:27 --> 01:00:28 [SPEAKER_06]: It's interesting, right?
01:00:28 --> 01:00:33 [SPEAKER_06]: Because Odo will have these flawed characters, but there's trauma that caused those flaws, right?
01:00:33 --> 01:00:35 [SPEAKER_06]: There's reasons that mommy doesn't trust.
01:00:35 --> 01:00:37 [SPEAKER_06]: There's reason that, reasons that usop lies.
01:00:38 --> 01:00:38 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, I see.
01:00:39 --> 01:00:42 [SPEAKER_03]: Yasa has like the orange fro.
01:00:43 --> 01:00:44 [SPEAKER_06]: Oh, okay.
01:00:44 --> 01:00:49 [SPEAKER_03]: So I remember seeing him, but I don't think, yeah, we haven't had much.
01:00:49 --> 01:00:50 [SPEAKER_03]: He just, yeah, was there.
01:00:50 --> 01:00:55 [SPEAKER_03]: Also, Shanks also has a naturally orange hair.
01:00:56 --> 01:00:56 [SPEAKER_03]: So there.
01:00:56 --> 01:00:56 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
01:00:57 --> 01:00:59 [SPEAKER_06]: So it's not sending out as much.
01:01:00 --> 01:01:08 [SPEAKER_03]: What I guess, yeah, it was just like friendly, unnaturally, orange-headed men who are smiling at Luffy.
01:01:09 --> 01:01:11 [SPEAKER_06]: He's got like the third weirdest hair there.
01:01:11 --> 01:01:14 [SPEAKER_06]: He just got a blends in.
01:01:14 --> 01:01:15 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
01:01:15 --> 01:01:17 [SPEAKER_03]: He's a more natural than checks.
01:01:17 --> 01:01:17 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
01:01:19 --> 01:01:25 [SPEAKER_06]: So you get in hunger release because we got to go to the the best restaurant floating on the sea.
01:01:26 --> 01:01:30 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, that was great seeing them pull up.
01:01:30 --> 01:01:32 [SPEAKER_03]: Baratier, is that my saying that correctly?
01:01:33 --> 01:01:33 [SPEAKER_06]: Yep, Baratier.
01:01:34 --> 01:01:34 [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
01:01:34 --> 01:01:37 [SPEAKER_03]: The Marines shoot a cannonball at Luffy who deflects it right back.
01:01:37 --> 01:01:40 [SPEAKER_03]: They end up at the floating restaurant Baratier.
01:01:40 --> 01:01:44 [SPEAKER_03]: There the straw hats meet Sanji, the sous chef of the restaurant with a mean roundhouse kick.
01:01:45 --> 01:01:47 [SPEAKER_03]: Zoro, do we see that?
01:01:48 --> 01:01:48 [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
01:01:48 --> 01:01:48 [SPEAKER_03]: I guess.
01:01:48 --> 01:01:50 [SPEAKER_06]: Kick's everybody doesn't he?
01:01:50 --> 01:01:50 [SPEAKER_03]: I suppose.
01:01:51 --> 01:01:53 [SPEAKER_03]: Zoro loses a duel to Dr.
01:01:53 --> 01:02:00 [SPEAKER_03]: Cool Mehawk and promises Luffy to never lose again, Sanji determined to find the all blue joins the crew as it's chef.
01:02:01 --> 01:02:08 [SPEAKER_03]: And yet this part for me just other than like that I loved the concept of the restaurant overall.
01:02:08 --> 01:02:15 [SPEAKER_03]: It reminds me of this floating Chinese restaurant we have here in Amsterdam, but the only of here is not you will
01:02:15 --> 01:02:16 [SPEAKER_03]: It's not shaped like a fish though.
01:02:18 --> 01:02:19 [SPEAKER_03]: It's shaped like a giant pagoda on the water.
01:02:22 --> 01:02:31 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I love the setting and then we as we first meet Zeph, you know, he seems like a jack-ass.
01:02:31 --> 01:02:38 [SPEAKER_03]: And then we find out that he actually ate his own leg to save Sanji when he was a kid.
01:02:39 --> 01:02:40 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, it's pretty metal.
01:02:41 --> 01:02:43 [SPEAKER_06]: I gotta say this guy's super metal.
01:02:44 --> 01:02:47 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, and he's got the dramatic braided moustache.
01:02:48 --> 01:02:52 [SPEAKER_06]: Again, I love that they kept these things from the anime.
01:02:52 --> 01:02:54 [SPEAKER_06]: They didn't, they didn't make it more normal.
01:02:57 --> 01:02:57 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
01:02:57 --> 01:02:58 [SPEAKER_06]: It's fun.
01:02:58 --> 01:03:04 [SPEAKER_06]: Sons, of course, meant to be portrayed as French, a French person and they did it.
01:03:05 --> 01:03:14 [SPEAKER_03]: Um, I did wonder though, and maybe they'll fill this in in the future, how, so they did the whole flashback with his Afin Sanji and the whole eating of the leg reveal.
01:03:15 --> 01:03:25 [SPEAKER_03]: And then it's like, and now we have this restaurant, I'm like, well wait, how did you finally get rescued after that month of, um, and that was another one where Sanji was the kid was just like on the rocks in a month.
01:03:25 --> 01:03:31 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm like, I think at this point, you should stop looking out for ships and maybe try walking somewhere.
01:03:31 --> 01:03:33 [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.
01:03:33 --> 01:03:38 [SPEAKER_06]: They did, they did, I guess in the anime, I think they'd be a little clearer that they got found by a ship at some point.
01:03:38 --> 01:03:40 [SPEAKER_03]: Okay, I assumed, but yeah.
01:03:41 --> 01:03:46 [SPEAKER_06]: And then Zeph is just like, well, I guess I can't kick anymore, because that was his signature movie, it was a kicker.
01:03:47 --> 01:03:48 [SPEAKER_06]: I can't kick anymore.
01:03:49 --> 01:03:51 [SPEAKER_06]: So I better just start a restaurant.
01:03:52 --> 01:03:52 [SPEAKER_03]: All right.
01:03:54 --> 01:04:00 [SPEAKER_03]: And now, I mean, I had the feeling that Sanji was a better chef than Zeph.
01:04:01 --> 01:04:04 [SPEAKER_03]: but now that his left and two is under vices.
01:04:04 --> 01:04:08 [SPEAKER_06]: I don't think that's supposed to be a better chef in me.
01:04:08 --> 01:04:08 [SPEAKER_06]: Okay.
01:04:09 --> 01:04:18 [SPEAKER_06]: In the anime at least, and I didn't get that, I don't think, when I once saw live action, but I could see how, I mean, it sounds like you're supposed to be like his prodigy, right?
01:04:18 --> 01:04:19 [SPEAKER_06]: It's been his prodigy.
01:04:20 --> 01:04:22 [SPEAKER_06]: He is the best chef there.
01:04:24 --> 01:04:25 [SPEAKER_06]: And...
01:04:26 --> 01:04:27 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, he's going to be sad to lose him.
01:04:28 --> 01:04:29 [SPEAKER_06]: But he wants songs you to live his dreams.
01:04:29 --> 01:04:33 [SPEAKER_06]: And again, that's one of the big themes of the show is let people go live their dreams.
01:04:33 --> 01:04:34 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
01:04:35 --> 01:04:39 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, and that that also comes up where people, who is it?
01:04:39 --> 01:04:48 [SPEAKER_03]: Somebody gets mad at Luffy for not discouraging Zorro from, you know, dueling with me.
01:04:48 --> 01:04:55 [SPEAKER_06]: Mehawk is one of the most notorious, maybe the most notorious swordsman in the world.
01:04:55 --> 01:04:57 [SPEAKER_06]: And there was like, I got this.
01:04:57 --> 01:04:57 [SPEAKER_06]: Hold my beer.
01:04:59 --> 01:05:03 [SPEAKER_03]: I do like how Mehawk to me was like, put some boots per son of a height.
01:05:05 --> 01:05:08 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, he's a nice and very classic.
01:05:08 --> 01:05:09 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
01:05:10 --> 01:05:20 [SPEAKER_03]: in the giant sword, they did not tone down the giant sword and he pulls out in the duel just to insult him, he pulls out this like half dagger, it's like a nail.
01:05:20 --> 01:05:35 [SPEAKER_03]: I don't even know how I sword, thanks anyway, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm excited to see more of me, okay, you immediately peeked my interest, he just shows up and notes out after ruining his aura of life.
01:05:36 --> 01:05:43 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, and also that he went back to the Marines and they're like, but I told you to kill him.
01:05:43 --> 01:05:45 [SPEAKER_03]: He's like, I mean, I didn't want to.
01:05:45 --> 01:05:47 [SPEAKER_03]: And at the end of the day, you tell me to do nothing.
01:05:48 --> 01:05:48 [SPEAKER_03]: I do what I want.
01:05:49 --> 01:05:49 [SPEAKER_03]: Like, yeah.
01:05:50 --> 01:05:54 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, that's another aspect of the world building that they're hinting at right now.
01:05:55 --> 01:05:59 [SPEAKER_06]: Perhaps there are pirates who work with the world government.
01:06:00 --> 01:06:05 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, you don't have the structure for it yet, but, but it seems like they have the construct around it.
01:06:05 --> 01:06:05 [SPEAKER_06]: Right.
01:06:05 --> 01:06:11 [SPEAKER_03]: Well, I mean, they do openly talk about their being, what is it, like, The board will get him.
01:06:12 --> 01:06:15 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, but they're like seven or whatever that they've worked with.
01:06:15 --> 01:06:16 [SPEAKER_06]: Okay.
01:06:16 --> 01:06:17 [SPEAKER_06]: I forgot that they mentioned it.
01:06:17 --> 01:06:20 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, there's seven warlords who work with the world of government.
01:06:20 --> 01:06:27 [SPEAKER_06]: Basically, their bounties are, you know, held at a bayons, and they are just, as long as they show up,
01:06:27 --> 01:06:31 [SPEAKER_06]: When the world government asks them to show up, they are allowed to just operate.
01:06:32 --> 01:06:32 [SPEAKER_03]: Right.
01:06:32 --> 01:06:33 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
01:06:33 --> 01:06:33 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
01:06:33 --> 01:06:34 [SPEAKER_03]: They do mention that.
01:06:34 --> 01:06:36 [SPEAKER_03]: They do say that a couple of times.
01:06:37 --> 01:06:43 [SPEAKER_03]: So I wondered, I thought that at the end, Gramps was going to offer that to Luffy.
01:06:45 --> 01:06:46 [SPEAKER_06]: Oh, Luffy's not powerful enough for that yet.
01:06:47 --> 01:06:47 [SPEAKER_03]: No.
01:06:48 --> 01:06:49 [SPEAKER_03]: I know, but it's nepotism, babe.
01:06:51 --> 01:06:56 [SPEAKER_06]: Generally, the warlords are appointed because they have such huge bounties that people know.
01:06:56 --> 01:07:05 [SPEAKER_06]: You know, one of the things that I should make clear is bounty level is, at least in the Mangan anime, that is generally like a measure of power level.
01:07:06 --> 01:07:12 [SPEAKER_06]: In the world, all the pirates look at each other's bounties are like, oh, you have a hundred million dollar bounty.
01:07:13 --> 01:07:14 [SPEAKER_06]: You have a hundred million berry bounty.
01:07:15 --> 01:07:19 [SPEAKER_06]: You must be more powerful than the 50 million bounty person.
01:07:19 --> 01:07:24 [SPEAKER_03]: Okay, and that explains why Luffy's so excited to have such a high bounty and everyone's proud of it.
01:07:24 --> 01:07:26 [SPEAKER_03]: Even if that is a thing, that's a thing.
01:07:27 --> 01:07:30 [SPEAKER_06]: You're missing out on, like, and they kind of do this at the end, I remember.
01:07:30 --> 01:07:37 [SPEAKER_06]: But, you know, at the end of every major arc, whenever Luffy, like, gets his bounty raised or there's a new story about what he did.
01:07:38 --> 01:07:41 [SPEAKER_06]: It shows like everybody you ever met reading the news and sampling.
01:07:42 --> 01:07:47 [SPEAKER_03]: I appreciate a montage that just checks in on where people are at the end of the thing.
01:07:47 --> 01:07:48 [SPEAKER_06]: My favorite criminal is still out there.
01:07:49 --> 01:07:54 [SPEAKER_06]: So, sounds like you can give me your first impressions on them.
01:07:54 --> 01:08:00 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, Sanji reminded me of like, I'd maybe it's the blonde hair.
01:08:00 --> 01:08:01 [SPEAKER_03]: I looked up the actor.
01:08:01 --> 01:08:05 [SPEAKER_03]: It does not have blonde hair like that, but he immediately reminded me of like prep school boys.
01:08:05 --> 01:08:13 [SPEAKER_03]: I went to college with him stuff who went to like, you know, like Eton or whatever, fancy British schools.
01:08:14 --> 01:08:23 [SPEAKER_03]: But then it turns out he is a lot more down to earth than you expect, but I do notice he is a relentless flirt
01:08:23 --> 01:08:33 [SPEAKER_03]: It's kind of, it's a way the toes align, but ends up being good nature like he hits on, for instance, Nami's sister, and she's like, now dude, and he's like, okay, he had to try.
01:08:33 --> 01:08:36 [SPEAKER_03]: It's like, I don't know if that's it or all.
01:08:36 --> 01:08:39 [SPEAKER_06]: Okay, so in the live action, I hope they keep it all.
01:08:40 --> 01:08:45 [SPEAKER_06]: I will say in the anime, there's a lot of really problematic stuff in society.
01:08:45 --> 01:08:45 [SPEAKER_03]: Gotcha.
01:08:45 --> 01:08:47 [SPEAKER_06]: He does not take that no-vurn answer.
01:08:47 --> 01:08:52 [SPEAKER_03]: All right.
01:08:53 --> 01:08:58 [SPEAKER_06]: No, I hope they don't do this in the live action and I'm going to spoil it now because I don't want them to do it.
01:08:58 --> 01:08:59 [SPEAKER_06]: Okay.
01:08:59 --> 01:09:08 [SPEAKER_06]: There is often a thing where every time Sanji sees a beautiful woman, he is like a violent nosebleed, like it's just flying out of his nose.
01:09:08 --> 01:09:09 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, okay.
01:09:10 --> 01:09:11 [SPEAKER_06]: And I just don't want that.
01:09:12 --> 01:09:15 [SPEAKER_06]: And then they put like hearts as his eyes and everything, it's just ridiculous.
01:09:15 --> 01:09:18 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I mean, I do find this as a thing in anime in general.
01:09:18 --> 01:09:22 [SPEAKER_03]: I've been also, I've been bingeing demonslayer recently.
01:09:22 --> 01:09:38 [SPEAKER_03]: And, yeah, a lot of the things about the way women are dealt with, or there's this character who's supposed to embody love, but that just means that she is obnoxiously fan-girling absolutely everyone.
01:09:38 --> 01:09:39 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm like, I don't love that.
01:09:39 --> 01:09:40 [SPEAKER_03]: I don't love that.
01:09:40 --> 01:09:56 [SPEAKER_06]: Munga and anime, especially the stuff that's been going like this show that is based on a manga that's from 1997 to start, got a lot of misogyny in it, and you just got, I mean, I'm glad that they're updating it a bit for the live action.
01:09:56 --> 01:10:06 [SPEAKER_06]: I hope they continue to do that, and I wonder if they're going to update any of it for the one piece, you know, the new one, probably, how it assumes that, yeah.
01:10:07 --> 01:10:08 [SPEAKER_06]: We shall see.
01:10:08 --> 01:10:24 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, but at this point, yeah, Sanji seems like a little enough that back story did a lot of heavy lifting and the actor seems charming enough, you know, with a smile that's not creepy, but yeah.
01:10:24 --> 01:10:25 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I like the actor.
01:10:25 --> 01:10:26 [SPEAKER_06]: I think he's selling it.
01:10:26 --> 01:10:31 [SPEAKER_06]: I was not sure about the accident first, but I liked it in the end.
01:10:32 --> 01:10:33 [SPEAKER_03]: I didn't notice his accent.
01:10:33 --> 01:10:34 [SPEAKER_03]: He said he's French.
01:10:34 --> 01:10:38 [SPEAKER_03]: He's supposed to be French.
01:10:38 --> 01:10:40 [SPEAKER_06]: I didn't even look that up.
01:10:40 --> 01:10:41 [SPEAKER_06]: Maybe we should look that up.
01:10:41 --> 01:10:42 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, let's see.
01:10:42 --> 01:10:43 [SPEAKER_03]: I have it open here.
01:10:43 --> 01:10:45 [SPEAKER_03]: Taz Skyler is the actor's name.
01:10:46 --> 01:10:48 [SPEAKER_03]: And his background is Spanish British.
01:10:50 --> 01:10:50 [SPEAKER_06]: Okay.
01:10:50 --> 01:10:51 [SPEAKER_03]: So they need to say Gaxon.
01:10:51 --> 01:10:54 [SPEAKER_06]: I think it's fine.
01:10:54 --> 01:10:59 [SPEAKER_06]: I just meant like I'm so used to watch the anime where they all have American accents basically.
01:10:59 --> 01:10:59 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
01:11:00 --> 01:11:01 [SPEAKER_06]: And that's just, you know, a dub thing.
01:11:01 --> 01:11:02 [SPEAKER_06]: That's what happens.
01:11:03 --> 01:11:05 [SPEAKER_06]: You hire the American actors to do the dub.
01:11:05 --> 01:11:06 [SPEAKER_06]: They have American accents.
01:11:06 --> 01:11:07 [SPEAKER_03]: Right.
01:11:07 --> 01:11:15 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I didn't I didn't notice it, but I guess so I didn't stand out to me as an obnoxiously fake accent I guess okay
01:11:16 --> 01:11:17 [SPEAKER_06]: So let's move on to our last arc.
01:11:17 --> 01:11:18 [SPEAKER_06]: You want to read it?
01:11:19 --> 01:11:20 [SPEAKER_06]: This one I wrote today.
01:11:20 --> 01:11:21 [SPEAKER_06]: So you will have to read it.
01:11:21 --> 01:11:22 [SPEAKER_06]: There we go.
01:11:22 --> 01:11:23 [SPEAKER_06]: I'll be messing it up as much.
01:11:25 --> 01:11:26 [SPEAKER_03]: Arlong Park.
01:11:26 --> 01:11:33 [SPEAKER_03]: After Nami flees, Baratay as a member of the Arlong Pirates, the straw hats fall a herd, a cocoa village, Nami's hometown.
01:11:33 --> 01:11:41 [SPEAKER_03]: There they learn the tragic backstory of the island, which has been ruled over by the brutal, fishmen's supremacist Arlong.
01:11:41 --> 01:11:48 [SPEAKER_03]: Nami and her sister, Nogiko, were orphaned when their adoptive mother, Belomir, was killed by Arlong.
01:11:48 --> 01:11:58 [SPEAKER_03]: Afterwards, Nami pledges herself to the Arlong Pirates in exchange for the opportunity to buy her village's freedom for 100 million berries.
01:11:58 --> 01:12:04 [SPEAKER_03]: as Nami Nier's her goal, Arlong has the 100 million berries stolen.
01:12:04 --> 01:12:08 [SPEAKER_03]: Nami stabs her fishman pirate tattoo and asks Luffy for help.
01:12:09 --> 01:12:14 [SPEAKER_03]: Luffy locks in and defeats Arlong in a fight, destroying Nami's prison in the process.
01:12:14 --> 01:12:17 [SPEAKER_03]: Nami is freed and joins the straw hat pirates for good.
01:12:18 --> 01:12:23 [SPEAKER_03]: The crew then gets a visit from Grandpa Garp, and it had to laugh about the stabbing the-
01:12:23 --> 01:12:29 [SPEAKER_03]: after so she stabs herself in the arm and then next time we see her she magically has a completely different tattoo.
01:12:30 --> 01:12:50 [SPEAKER_03]: Which granted they made it red as if it had just been done but I was like did she have laser laser renewal removal in the middle like it's not actually looked it up like is there some magic about tattoos in the show and it's just the one piece form was just a bunch of
01:12:50 --> 01:12:54 [SPEAKER_03]: How dare you question about in an anime about cover-up tattoos?
01:12:54 --> 01:13:02 [SPEAKER_06]: Like sorry, that was the one thing that took me out It's a little ridiculous, but it's it's not even the most ridiculous.
01:13:02 --> 01:13:02 [SPEAKER_02]: It's in bulk.
01:13:03 --> 01:13:05 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, yeah, I get better have it.
01:13:05 --> 01:13:06 [SPEAKER_02]: I do
01:13:07 --> 01:13:07 [SPEAKER_06]: letter habit.
01:13:08 --> 01:13:12 [SPEAKER_06]: Again, we get, I think we get the biggest loofy lock in here.
01:13:12 --> 01:13:15 [SPEAKER_06]: This is for me, even in the original anime.
01:13:15 --> 01:13:19 [SPEAKER_06]: This is the arc that made me go, oh, this isn't just a good show.
01:13:19 --> 01:13:19 [SPEAKER_06]: This is a great show.
01:13:20 --> 01:13:30 [SPEAKER_06]: This is a show that has something to say about power and where it lies and and pound family and what it means for you to be there for your friend.
01:13:30 --> 01:13:37 [SPEAKER_06]: No questions asked.
01:13:37 --> 01:13:39 [SPEAKER_06]: I don't remember his exact words in live action.
01:13:39 --> 01:13:44 [SPEAKER_06]: I remember I've watched the anime part multiple times where he's like, I don't care what happened.
01:13:44 --> 01:13:45 [SPEAKER_06]: I don't care about her backstory.
01:13:45 --> 01:13:47 [SPEAKER_06]: I'm shooting my friend, I'm gonna help her.
01:13:47 --> 01:13:48 [SPEAKER_05]: Mm-hmm.
01:13:49 --> 01:13:50 [SPEAKER_06]: You know, I don't care if it was her fault or not.
01:13:50 --> 01:14:00 [SPEAKER_06]: Something that they kind of made works for Naomi in the show is in the anime, the villagers knew the whole time that she was faking it and she was working for them.
01:14:00 --> 01:14:06 [SPEAKER_06]: The only reason that they pretended in the anime was they didn't want her to feel like she had to continue.
01:14:06 --> 01:14:10 [SPEAKER_06]: They were mean to her and this is kind of crappy honestly.
01:14:10 --> 01:14:16 [SPEAKER_06]: But they acted like they didn't know that she was saving up for them because they wanted her to feel like she could stop doing it at that point.
01:14:16 --> 01:14:18 [SPEAKER_06]: Hmm, they didn't want her to feel the pressure.
01:14:19 --> 01:14:19 [SPEAKER_03]: Hmm.
01:14:20 --> 01:14:22 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I don't know how I feel about that.
01:14:23 --> 01:14:24 [SPEAKER_06]: It's a little gas lady.
01:14:24 --> 01:14:32 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, but it is sort of like you would think she would tell her sister, hey, I'm gonna do this thing, but maybe she thought her sister would stop her.
01:14:33 --> 01:14:36 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, her sister doesn't like Peter in the anime.
01:14:36 --> 01:14:51 [SPEAKER_06]: It's just, they really changed that part up a lot, like the motivations of the villagers and the more development of the, that is just the main change that they made from the anime is they reduced the amount of side characters, they reduced the depth of the side characters.
01:14:52 --> 01:15:18 [SPEAKER_03]: yeah i mean i did wonder also is like what if first i knew like they're not gonna have more than one token female in the crew um but i thought well what if in this version they have her sister join on the boat nope not happy the there's not stick around there will be more than just a token i'll say that all right stick around with us
01:15:18 --> 01:15:25 [SPEAKER_06]: The, um, it's pretty crappy of our long to, uh, you know, steal her 100 million berries.
01:15:26 --> 01:15:29 [SPEAKER_06]: I did want to make clear that fishmen are not, these are not people who eat devil fruit.
01:15:30 --> 01:15:32 [SPEAKER_06]: This is a different species that it just exists in this world.
01:15:32 --> 01:15:35 [SPEAKER_06]: They are, they're not even a hybrid of fish and men.
01:15:35 --> 01:15:36 [SPEAKER_06]: They're just fishmen.
01:15:37 --> 01:15:38 [SPEAKER_06]: They evolved separately.
01:15:39 --> 01:15:56 [SPEAKER_03]: I thought that this was one of the better parts of the writing in the sort of analogy for racism and things like that, you know, that, yeah, just the you just want us to be your laborers, which you don't think of us as people equal to you.
01:15:56 --> 01:16:05 [SPEAKER_03]: And how that might drive someone like the, if he weren't so awful and violent, you would.
01:16:06 --> 01:16:14 [SPEAKER_03]: Feel for the, you know, which is sharp nose, which is name are a long are long right right right the shark guy.
01:16:14 --> 01:16:22 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, it's it's tricky right because there are systems like like the fishmen are treated worse in this world.
01:16:22 --> 01:16:26 [SPEAKER_06]: No doubt mostly by the world government and the world nobles.
01:16:27 --> 01:16:30 [SPEAKER_06]: And here's the thing though, these people have never seen a fishman before.
01:16:30 --> 01:16:33 [SPEAKER_06]: They're just like regular people try to live their lives.
01:16:34 --> 01:16:37 [SPEAKER_06]: And our long comes there and it's like, you will pay for what other people.
01:16:37 --> 01:16:38 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, we have no.
01:16:38 --> 01:16:39 [SPEAKER_02]: And that's the fact, right?
01:16:40 --> 01:16:44 [SPEAKER_06]: Like, where do you draw the line between structural racism and species as a my guess?
01:16:46 --> 01:16:49 [SPEAKER_06]: Between that and individual accountability.
01:16:49 --> 01:16:49 [SPEAKER_03]: Right.
01:16:50 --> 01:16:50 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
01:16:50 --> 01:16:57 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, but I think that does reflect the real world quite well in a more nuanced way than I would have expected from an anime.
01:16:58 --> 01:17:00 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
01:17:00 --> 01:17:01 [SPEAKER_06]: He's a scary villain.
01:17:01 --> 01:17:05 [SPEAKER_06]: He is, I think, the first villain where you're like, Luffy might lose this.
01:17:06 --> 01:17:06 [SPEAKER_03]: Mm-hmm.
01:17:08 --> 01:17:08 [SPEAKER_06]: And that's not fun.
01:17:09 --> 01:17:10 [SPEAKER_06]: It's fun to have stakes.
01:17:12 --> 01:17:13 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
01:17:13 --> 01:17:13 [SPEAKER_03]: No.
01:17:13 --> 01:17:14 [SPEAKER_03]: I agree.
01:17:14 --> 01:17:17 [SPEAKER_03]: I think he was a good villain.
01:17:17 --> 01:17:22 [SPEAKER_03]: He just also just seeing like the way he can just cut people up with his nose.
01:17:25 --> 01:17:35 [SPEAKER_03]: He's both comical and like it was, I was more afraid of him physically than say what's his face, the detaching clown buggy.
01:17:36 --> 01:17:37 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, buggy.
01:17:37 --> 01:17:40 [SPEAKER_06]: Buggy you've seen more silly whereas our long was just like straight terror.
01:17:42 --> 01:17:42 [SPEAKER_01]: Mm-hmm.
01:17:42 --> 01:17:42 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
01:17:42 --> 01:17:44 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
01:17:44 --> 01:17:45 [SPEAKER_06]: Did you like the pinwheel hat?
01:17:47 --> 01:17:49 [SPEAKER_01]: I don't really remember the pinwheel happening.
01:17:49 --> 01:17:51 [SPEAKER_01]: On Genzo, I don't remember who Genzo is.
01:17:51 --> 01:17:55 [SPEAKER_06]: He's reduced to a very tiny character anyway, so maybe he's just won't remember him.
01:17:56 --> 01:18:02 [SPEAKER_06]: All right, but you know, you get our long, you get Coro OB, that's one of the guys working for him.
01:18:02 --> 01:18:07 [SPEAKER_06]: You get Nojico, Nami Sister, and then we learn the backstory of Belomere.
01:18:07 --> 01:18:09 [SPEAKER_06]: How sad is Nami's backstory?
01:18:10 --> 01:18:10 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
01:18:11 --> 01:18:23 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, especially when you see like it's a you see there's chains on the floor where our lungs talking several times and then you find out later that Naomi spent years in those chains and he let her go for her 12th birthday.
01:18:25 --> 01:18:26 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, it's really dark.
01:18:27 --> 01:18:28 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, the pinwheel hat.
01:18:28 --> 01:18:32 [SPEAKER_03]: I do remember that because I was noticing it when it got knocked off.
01:18:32 --> 01:18:38 [SPEAKER_03]: I was like, um, they yeah, the the guy in the town
01:18:39 --> 01:18:49 [SPEAKER_06]: He, in the anime, they make him more functionally like Nami's almost like adoptive father, even though he's not like, like he just, he just always was like a father figure in town for her.
01:18:49 --> 01:18:51 [SPEAKER_06]: Right.
01:18:51 --> 01:18:54 [SPEAKER_06]: And it's, I honestly said that they reduce his role in the live action.
01:18:55 --> 01:19:01 [SPEAKER_03]: Do they ever go back to this, to the places where we've seen this season, where we go back there again?
01:19:01 --> 01:19:03 [SPEAKER_06]: Um.
01:19:04 --> 01:19:06 [SPEAKER_03]: because they're leaving the east blue, right?
01:19:06 --> 01:19:12 [SPEAKER_06]: They are leaving the east blue, and they're going to the grand line, and it is very hard to turn around in the grand line.
01:19:13 --> 01:19:13 [SPEAKER_06]: I'll just say that.
01:19:14 --> 01:19:16 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, okay, that's a shame.
01:19:17 --> 01:19:20 [SPEAKER_06]: At least in the short term, can be very hard for them to turn around.
01:19:21 --> 01:19:21 [SPEAKER_02]: Gotcha.
01:19:24 --> 01:19:30 [SPEAKER_06]: Also, um, you know, Nami, I think is ready to leave this place behind like she was she was chained here and I'm kind of excited for that.
01:19:30 --> 01:19:32 [SPEAKER_02]: She just made up with her sister.
01:19:32 --> 01:19:33 [SPEAKER_06]: I know, I know.
01:19:34 --> 01:19:41 [SPEAKER_06]: Again, that it kind of kind of changes things when you know that like she actually did hate her in the live action, right?
01:19:42 --> 01:19:42 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
01:19:42 --> 01:19:43 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I guess so.
01:19:44 --> 01:19:44 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
01:19:45 --> 01:19:46 [SPEAKER_06]: And stuff.
01:19:46 --> 01:19:54 [SPEAKER_06]: And of course, we get Garp finally, you know, playing all his cards saying come on hit me.
01:19:55 --> 01:19:59 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, um, that final confrontation like I was just, I don't know.
01:20:00 --> 01:20:15 [SPEAKER_03]: Garp was going a little too hard after Luffy and just the fact that Garp was sending, sending marines after them knowing that they often kill pirates without being like, and it first is like, oh, you have to bring them back alive.
01:20:15 --> 01:20:15 [SPEAKER_03]: Like, okay.
01:20:16 --> 01:20:19 [SPEAKER_03]: But then it was like, no, do whatever you need to do.
01:20:19 --> 01:20:21 [SPEAKER_03]: And I don't know that just,
01:20:21 --> 01:20:30 [SPEAKER_03]: it's very hard for me to be sympathetic to Garp when he seemed to be declaring open season on his grandson in a way that might have gotten him killed.
01:20:31 --> 01:20:36 [SPEAKER_06]: Garp thinks a lot of decisions that a lot of people disagree with but he is an interesting character.
01:20:36 --> 01:20:38 [SPEAKER_06]: He's definitely a morally great character.
01:20:39 --> 01:20:44 [SPEAKER_06]: And this was entirely an anime construction.
01:20:44 --> 01:20:46 [SPEAKER_06]: I'm sorry, a live action construction.
01:20:47 --> 01:20:52 [SPEAKER_06]: They did not have this confrontation at least this early on, especially this early on, with Garp.
01:20:53 --> 01:20:58 [SPEAKER_06]: Luffy is well along his journey before he really has a big conversation with his grandfather.
01:20:58 --> 01:21:03 [SPEAKER_06]: I think it's interesting that they bring it this far forward.
01:21:03 --> 01:21:05 [SPEAKER_06]: It's kind of getting it out of the way, I think.
01:21:05 --> 01:21:21 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I'm glad because I might have felt like if it just turned up several seasons in, I'd be like, they just made that up after the fact, like, otherwise it doesn't make sense to me, why Luffy wouldn't say, oh, that's my granddad.
01:21:22 --> 01:21:33 [SPEAKER_06]: It's funny you say that because there are a number of characters that like there were, there was a member of our lungs crew in the anime, but it didn't show up here, but it's a pretty
01:21:34 --> 01:21:47 [SPEAKER_06]: And they kind of cut away, oh, do we'll do this thing in the manga and anime where he'll introduce a character for like five minutes and then they don't show up for like 400 episodes and then they're a major character.
01:21:48 --> 01:21:48 [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
01:21:48 --> 01:21:52 [SPEAKER_03]: Which, yeah, you can't depend in most cases on people remembering that.
01:21:53 --> 01:21:57 [SPEAKER_06]: Well, don't worry, they'll have like 16 flashback episodes for you.
01:21:57 --> 01:21:59 [SPEAKER_03]: Right, fair.
01:21:59 --> 01:22:01 [SPEAKER_06]: They don't worry, they're not counting on you to remember anything.
01:22:04 --> 01:22:06 [SPEAKER_06]: So yeah, we get Garp.
01:22:06 --> 01:22:08 [SPEAKER_06]: We get this whole, well, do you actually wanna be a parrot?
01:22:08 --> 01:22:10 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, all right, fine, go be a parrot.
01:22:13 --> 01:22:14 [SPEAKER_06]: I think it was, I think it was fine.
01:22:14 --> 01:22:21 [SPEAKER_06]: And I did enjoy his Luffy's little debrief with Kobe at the end like, be a good parrot.
01:22:22 --> 01:22:23 [SPEAKER_06]: And I'll be a good one.
01:22:24 --> 01:22:26 [SPEAKER_03]: No, Kobe is an interesting character.
01:22:26 --> 01:22:39 [SPEAKER_03]: I really like Kobe as a character, who's like, um, I can't agree with your lifestyle, but I still consider you my friend and thus, and thus this gives Kobe this insight into, like, pirates aren't necessarily bad.
01:22:39 --> 01:22:45 [SPEAKER_03]: They're just, they are humans who have different moral compasses like any other type of groups of humans.
01:22:46 --> 01:22:49 [SPEAKER_06]: Right, there's good and bad pirates, there's good of mammarines.
01:22:49 --> 01:22:51 [SPEAKER_06]: I think that's what the show tries to leave you with.
01:22:52 --> 01:22:53 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, yeah.
01:22:54 --> 01:23:05 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I mean, I did like the Garp was like very, you know, wanted his grandson to obviously be a marine and not a pirate, but then was very proud that at least his grandson got a good bounty.
01:23:07 --> 01:23:11 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, it's, it's, he's such a weird dude, honestly.
01:23:12 --> 01:23:18 [SPEAKER_06]: I, all of these monkey people, I, I think in the anime, there's one point where somebody goes, like, what the fuck is with this family?
01:23:18 --> 01:23:18 [SPEAKER_06]: They don't say anything.
01:23:18 --> 01:23:21 [SPEAKER_06]: You can't in the anime, but they're like, what is with this family?
01:23:21 --> 01:23:22 [SPEAKER_06]: Why are they like this?
01:23:24 --> 01:23:25 [SPEAKER_03]: I can't wait to find out.
01:23:25 --> 01:23:29 [SPEAKER_06]: And I like that Garp also is as obsessed with meat as Luffy?
01:23:30 --> 01:23:30 [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
01:23:31 --> 01:23:32 [SPEAKER_06]: There.
01:23:32 --> 01:23:32 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, yeah.
01:23:32 --> 01:23:33 [SPEAKER_03]: I did notice.
01:23:33 --> 01:23:39 [SPEAKER_03]: That was how ZF tried to, like, bribe Garp at one point, like, well.
01:23:39 --> 01:23:40 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, right.
01:23:40 --> 01:23:47 [SPEAKER_03]: Because at the end, there is something where the restaurant brought to you gets attacked.
01:23:47 --> 01:23:51 [SPEAKER_03]: And so they have to, yeah, rebuild it or something.
01:23:51 --> 01:23:58 [SPEAKER_03]: And so he says to Garp, like, well, I have all this steak that's just going to go bad if you don't eat it.
01:24:01 --> 01:24:06 [SPEAKER_06]: And that's how he
01:24:08 --> 01:24:11 [SPEAKER_06]: Um, I think I have pretty much all I are.
01:24:12 --> 01:24:14 [SPEAKER_06]: I weaved in all of the differences that I wanted to bring up.
01:24:15 --> 01:24:17 [SPEAKER_06]: I'm excited for season two.
01:24:17 --> 01:24:23 [SPEAKER_06]: Um, like I said, we're going to have sort of a set up arc to wrap up the east blue and then we're going to go into the grand line.
01:24:23 --> 01:24:24 [SPEAKER_06]: And that's not a spoiler.
01:24:24 --> 01:24:26 [SPEAKER_06]: That's the subtitle for the season.
01:24:27 --> 01:24:28 [SPEAKER_06]: One piece into the grand line.
01:24:29 --> 01:24:32 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, they, yeah, that's like the last lines in the in the season, right?
01:24:33 --> 01:24:33 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
01:24:33 --> 01:24:35 [SPEAKER_03]: Um, I watched the trailers.
01:24:35 --> 01:24:37 [SPEAKER_03]: I won't say any spoilers from the trailers.
01:24:37 --> 01:24:40 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, not that I really know what I'm looking at anyway.
01:24:40 --> 01:24:47 [SPEAKER_03]: Other than, um, it seems like there are a lot of new interesting characters being interviewed, like a lot.
01:24:47 --> 01:24:49 [SPEAKER_03]: So I'm like, oh boy, here we go.
01:24:49 --> 01:24:51 [SPEAKER_06]: Perhaps one with a funny hat.
01:24:51 --> 01:24:57 [SPEAKER_03]: Um, one with some funny hair that I recall, well, a few, I guess that's not really helpful is it.
01:24:57 --> 01:25:06 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, one with a funny hat and um, who is more adorable than I expected from a character in the show, if that makes any sense.
01:25:07 --> 01:25:12 [SPEAKER_06]: It is a very accurate portrayal of being an enemy.
01:25:12 --> 01:25:12 [SPEAKER_06]: Okay.
01:25:12 --> 01:25:18 [SPEAKER_06]: Uh, I would, we, everybody was debating like, how are they going to introduce his character and I'm excited that they're, they're really going for it.
01:25:18 --> 01:25:22 [SPEAKER_03]: They're just like full on, let's just keep the character the same, it seems.
01:25:23 --> 01:25:26 [SPEAKER_06]: I mean, I don't know how you could do it differently.
01:25:26 --> 01:25:27 [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.
01:25:27 --> 01:25:27 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
01:25:27 --> 01:25:27 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
01:25:27 --> 01:25:28 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
01:25:28 --> 01:25:29 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
01:25:29 --> 01:25:34 [SPEAKER_06]: There's also things about that character's powers that are going to make clear why they couldn't just put a person in a suit.
01:25:34 --> 01:25:35 [SPEAKER_03]: All right.
01:25:35 --> 01:25:36 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm excited.
01:25:36 --> 01:25:45 [SPEAKER_03]: And one of my favorite actors, David Desmalkin, Malchin, turns up with some weird hair and pale skin, I think.
01:25:46 --> 01:25:48 [SPEAKER_06]: It does, does Melkin.
01:25:49 --> 01:25:50 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I'm a Melkin.
01:25:51 --> 01:25:52 [SPEAKER_06]: What's he going to play?
01:25:52 --> 01:25:53 [SPEAKER_06]: I don't know.
01:25:53 --> 01:25:54 [SPEAKER_06]: Oh, that's from Smurderbot.
01:25:55 --> 01:25:55 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
01:25:56 --> 01:25:57 [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know the character names.
01:25:58 --> 01:25:58 [SPEAKER_03]: Let's see.
01:25:58 --> 01:26:00 [SPEAKER_03]: Do they have season two in here?
01:26:00 --> 01:26:01 [SPEAKER_03]: Introduced in season two.
01:26:01 --> 01:26:02 [SPEAKER_06]: Oh, I see.
01:26:02 --> 01:26:03 [SPEAKER_06]: Oh, that's so good.
01:26:04 --> 01:26:05 [SPEAKER_06]: That's such a good cast.
01:26:06 --> 01:26:06 [SPEAKER_06]: Okay.
01:26:06 --> 01:26:06 [SPEAKER_06]: All right.
01:26:06 --> 01:26:07 [SPEAKER_03]: This is your three.
01:26:07 --> 01:26:10 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, and that's his hair is like a number.
01:26:10 --> 01:26:12 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, his hair is a three.
01:26:12 --> 01:26:13 [SPEAKER_06]: Yes, yes.
01:26:13 --> 01:26:14 [SPEAKER_06]: Absolutely it is.
01:26:14 --> 01:26:15 [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
01:26:16 --> 01:26:18 [SPEAKER_06]: How much time does that take in the morning, you know?
01:26:19 --> 01:26:22 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, how does one cut it?
01:26:22 --> 01:26:28 [SPEAKER_03]: I guess you just have to have it longer on top, or a pre-prepared wig.
01:26:28 --> 01:26:30 [SPEAKER_03]: I think that would be the way to do it.
01:26:30 --> 01:26:32 [SPEAKER_03]: You just have a wig that's ready to put on each morning.
01:26:33 --> 01:26:33 [SPEAKER_06]: I guess so.
01:26:34 --> 01:26:34 [SPEAKER_06]: I guess so.
01:26:35 --> 01:26:37 [SPEAKER_06]: Or maybe you have like a wire in your hair?
01:26:37 --> 01:26:38 [SPEAKER_06]: And you have the hair around it.
01:26:39 --> 01:26:46 [SPEAKER_03]: Got to be, or there's some magical hair gel in,
01:26:47 --> 01:26:53 [SPEAKER_06]: No, not as far as I know, the world, the world government is called the is the government.
01:26:53 --> 01:26:55 [SPEAKER_06]: So, I guess, the world.
01:26:58 --> 01:26:58 [SPEAKER_06]: So we did it.
01:26:58 --> 01:27:00 [SPEAKER_06]: We recap season one.
01:27:00 --> 01:27:04 [SPEAKER_06]: Any final thoughts or excitement for season two coming on March 10th.
01:27:05 --> 01:27:12 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, yeah, like I said, I'm glad that I watched it so close to this because now I'm totally excited for season two.
01:27:13 --> 01:27:18 [SPEAKER_03]: There's trailers, I saw also were lots of like, I don't know what I'm looking at, but it looks like a lot of fun.
01:27:18 --> 01:27:25 [SPEAKER_06]: So, yeah, they're doing a theater showing, by the way, on Friday night, I think.
01:27:26 --> 01:27:26 [SPEAKER_03]: Or are they?
01:27:27 --> 01:27:27 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
01:27:28 --> 01:27:34 [SPEAKER_06]: I don't think they're nice in the US, so I hope that, to help people out with that, I'm not sure I'm going to be able to make it, but I'm going to try.
01:27:35 --> 01:27:41 [SPEAKER_03]: Okay, yeah, I mean, yeah, so it comes out on the 10th, and then we have to figure out when we talk about it.
01:27:42 --> 01:27:42 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
01:27:43 --> 01:27:43 [SPEAKER_03]: Of course.
01:27:43 --> 01:27:45 [SPEAKER_06]: I haven't realized this is going to be so dense.
01:27:45 --> 01:27:47 [SPEAKER_06]: We might have to split this up into two.
01:27:47 --> 01:27:48 [SPEAKER_03]: Okay, all right.
01:27:49 --> 01:27:51 [SPEAKER_06]: They're doing at least four arcs, maybe five.
01:27:52 --> 01:27:54 [SPEAKER_03]: All right, will you tell me before I watch a head two four?
01:27:54 --> 01:27:55 [SPEAKER_06]: Okay, fair enough.
01:27:56 --> 01:27:57 [SPEAKER_06]: Fair enough.
01:27:57 --> 01:28:00 [SPEAKER_06]: It's not, you know, I don't think there's too many, too many spoilers.
01:28:01 --> 01:28:04 [SPEAKER_06]: It's going to be, there's going to be a lot of setup
01:28:05 --> 01:28:07 [SPEAKER_02]: OK, all right, can't wait.
01:28:08 --> 01:28:09 [SPEAKER_06]: All right, see you then.
01:28:09 --> 01:28:12 [SPEAKER_06]: For now, let's just do a quick outro.
01:28:12 --> 01:28:17 [SPEAKER_06]: I know we have a ton of going on on the Lourhounds network, David Nyer, weekly covering the pit, which is a lot of fun.
01:28:17 --> 01:28:19 [SPEAKER_06]: We're now doing full coverage.
01:28:20 --> 01:28:22 [SPEAKER_06]: David's so obsessed with it.
01:28:22 --> 01:28:24 [SPEAKER_06]: And I'm too, I'm getting pretty obsessed with it.
01:28:24 --> 01:28:26 [SPEAKER_06]: So he was like, let's do full coverage.
01:28:26 --> 01:28:28 [SPEAKER_06]: And I agreed against my better interest.
01:28:30 --> 01:28:32 [SPEAKER_06]: And we just finished up in the seven kingdoms.
01:28:32 --> 01:28:35 [SPEAKER_06]: That was a lot of fun covering with David's
01:28:36 --> 01:28:50 [SPEAKER_03]: And yeah, you could come around with you all season two shows in my top 10 already this year Yeah, which would not wonder man, which we also covered recently and you've got your award season covered.
01:28:50 --> 01:29:03 [SPEAKER_03]: You want to talk about that a little bit yeah, in the thick of it the Oscars take place on May 15th So there's been a number of episodes released and there's going to be in these last two weeks
01:29:03 --> 01:29:08 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I said, May March 15th, um, I don't know, so you're really ahead of the game this year.
01:29:09 --> 01:29:11 [SPEAKER_03]: In these last two, I wish they gave me that much time.
01:29:11 --> 01:29:18 [SPEAKER_03]: In these last two weeks there's going to be a speed run of a lot of the the biggest categories.
01:29:18 --> 01:29:19 [SPEAKER_03]: So,
01:29:19 --> 01:29:20 [SPEAKER_03]: Watch out for that.
01:29:21 --> 01:29:29 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm trying to get them all out to make sure that people have at least a few days after the last one to catch up on whatever interest them before the ceremony itself.
01:29:29 --> 01:29:34 [SPEAKER_03]: And we will be having a live chat for that on the discord for anyone who wants to join.
01:29:36 --> 01:29:37 [SPEAKER_06]: Very cool.

01:29:48 --> 01:29:50 [SPEAKER_03]: Maybe you'll take another couple of years.
01:29:50 --> 01:29:51 [SPEAKER_06]: I don't know.
01:29:51 --> 01:29:56 [SPEAKER_06]: I don't know if we're doing any of our C2 after this, we'll say, I mean, this is the last novel.
01:29:57 --> 01:29:58 [SPEAKER_06]: And we did one of the short stories already.
01:29:59 --> 01:30:02 [SPEAKER_03]: But the short stories are some of my favorite parts.
01:30:03 --> 01:30:05 [SPEAKER_06]: Well then you should get on the mic with Marilyn.
01:30:06 --> 01:30:06 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
01:30:06 --> 01:30:06 [SPEAKER_03]: Maybe I should.
