JetBlackXtreme, Professor Tuck, Talos Gundam, Mira Jane, Playboi Season 16

What happens when you blend the magic of "My Hero Academia" with the intensity of "Black Clover"? Introducing "Wistoria: Wand and Sword" – a fantasy anime that we can't stop talking about. We had the pleasure of unpacking its unique storytelling with Professor Tuck. Talos Gundam, Mira Jane and Playboi! Together, we dissect how this series stands out from the crowd, bringing together a fusion of dynamic fight scenes and a captivating magical hierarchy. Our conversation uncovers why "Wistoria" is quickly becoming a fan favorite, illustrating how it effectively borrows from the likes of "Irregular at Magic High School" and "Chivalry of a Failed Knight" to create something fresh and exhilarating.

Get ready for a colorful discussion that mixes intense anime analysis with a dash of humor. We've got opinions on everything from character dynamics and world-building to the mouth-watering world of anime-inspired cuisine. With characters like Julius and Lihanna sparking debates, we explore why they're both charming and challenging, offering moments that remind us of other beloved series like DanMachi. We also take a nostalgic trip through food, arguing about the best dishes from Korean and Japanese cuisine, all while keeping our love for "Wistoria" at the forefront amidst a sea of isekai series. 

And if that isn't enough, we dive into the passionate world of anime ratings and fan service. From the anticipation of upcoming seasons to the joys and pitfalls of watch parties, we share our excitement for what's on the horizon for "Wistoria" and beyond. Plus, we give you a sneak peek into our plans for expanding the ZONE Alliance's online presence.

Speaker 1:

Welcome back to the Zone Podcast. We're in the world of anime. No matter what it is, there's a school for it. I'm Jet Blackestream Feel free to call me JB and joining me today is Professor Albus, brian Wolpert, percival Duck, and today's topic is Wistoria, wand and Sword. So, without further ado ado, let's go ahead and zone in on that man, listen. Okay. Let me first off say this anime got that sauce.

Speaker 1:

Like I was watching it the other day, right, and I heard you and skip and others saying like, oh man, it's so good, so good. I'm like, hey, man, you know what, you know, I'll check it out, check it out. So I sat down and I'm like, oh, this, this actually kind of gets, because, like, I'm so glad that season two got announced already but we didn't get an official date, like not even a time window. But it was good. Like I was trying to remember. The main thing was it's funny how it was the manga was written by Ujina Omori. The manga was written by Ujina Omori and if you're familiar with him, it's the same author of Is it Wrong To Try To Pick Up Girls In A Dungeon, or Don Machi, if you Prefer, and this is his second work, and I'm like damn, it almost feel like Attack On Titan, where Isayama that was like his first one and he just was swinging right out of the gate making that one and it was really good. But uh, with story, I mean don machi is very good too in fact we're gonna review that at some point but with story, oh my god damn.

Speaker 1:

Like okay, I was saying that it reminded me of shit like my hero, academia, with the way the music kind of goes crazy at the right moments. You know, like with will trying to have like this triumphant moment, and then that music just going off in the background like oh shit, something's about to pop off. Uh, it reminded me of irregular at the magic high school, uh, where it seems like there's this hierarchy to where. I mean it's kind of like that in a lot of shows. But essentially if you have like magical talent, then of course you like elite or something like that. But then if you don't have magic like say, you're like asta from black clover then you're gonna get shat on, at least until you do something remarkable.

Speaker 1:

And it also reminded me of she'll be, of a failed night, where it's like same kind of deal where except, uh, the one time like okay, wait, will versus julius, that fight, when will was starting to get the upper hand on julius after pretty much um dismantling his whole shit, talking about, hey man, you do know that that spell that you learned from my um friend. She learned that shit at the age of two, so that spell got a lot of flaws that you don't know about and he was like what? And next thing you know, uh will was just popping up, um pairing all the um magic ice with the um sword and like, oh shit, let's go with the animation, shit. I really like that one part to where when he was trying to race to the stadium during the Grand Magic Festival and Julie was almost about to take the crown and shit, but then this dude hopped up all the way over the stadium Like he was flying over the people and everything and he just crashed in.

Speaker 1:

I'm like damn hell yeah he got hops ain't it yeah, but dude, like another thing that reminds me of black coat, cloverwear um that it was episode three and he was just in his room with rosti and you would not think that Will got that trench body underneath all that clothing. I'm like dude, looking like he been hitting the gym like 24 hours Like bro like tell me he look like Austin after the arc. Yeah, I'm like I'm like bro tell me your training regimen.

Speaker 1:

I need to copy your homework. I need to get those results like for real. What up, fellas? Welcome to the show.

Speaker 2:

What up, what up, what up.

Speaker 1:

How you feeling about Wistoria Now. You join us now.

Speaker 3:

What can I say that ain't already been goddamn said. Let's put it out there, folks, you ain't watched it. You sound so excited.

Speaker 1:

Bro, it's so good man.

Speaker 3:

First and foremost. First and foremost, I'm telling you now and I call it like it is which story is that anime that slept on? But once it's watched, it's like like why the fuck did I not watch this sooner?

Speaker 1:

yeah, see, that's the funny thing, like keep in mind that, um, the last episode just came out, like not too long ago, so it's like still fresh. But at the same time I did take my time because nowadays I'm more like a binge watcher. I prefer to watch the whole season in one day if I can, and I sat through all 12 episodes in one sitting because it was that good, my dude. Like I was telling Tuck here how it reminded me of my Hero Academia with the music Black Clover, with Will having that trench body hitting the gym like on the side or some shit like that. You know, like solo levelings where you know how jenny had to like grind and shit to uh get as strong as he is.

Speaker 1:

But uh, with will it's more like yeah, he's been uh dungeon crawling kind of like uh and don machi where um bell, you know he had to like kind of of grind in dungeons to get to where he was. It reminded me of so many different anime, but in a good way, because it's like it took what makes some of those anime as good as they are. It's like certain moments like animation, art style, the dialogue, the music. It's like, yeah, music. It's like, yeah, this one got that yeah.

Speaker 1:

I was telling them about especially Will vs Julius. That was like my favorite part so far. I was like oh man the way he hopped into the stadium and all that other shit. What's up, Tuck?

Speaker 2:

the musical director and animator worked on my Hero Academia movies.

Speaker 1:

You know. See, that's why it felt he worked on all the my Hero Academia movies.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, and One Piece movie.

Speaker 1:

Yeah. I'm like it sounds so familiar, Like almost like I can tell that it sounds like my Hero Academia music in the background.

Speaker 2:

Oh, shit Whenever there's like a triumphant moment.

Speaker 1:

What's up?

Speaker 2:

He worked on a Naruto movie and Black Lagoon. He was a key animator on Black Lagoon too. That's crazy and Mob Psycho 100.

Speaker 1:

Okay, that's fair enough Because, like, like those examples, like it's usually like some anime shows, but a lot of times when long-run anime they have a movie and their animation is like, for some reason it's like so much better than the tv show, like perfect example, dragon ball super, broly, the animation went fucking crazy in that movie and I was saying like bro, why can't Dragon Ball Super be more?

Speaker 3:

like this.

Speaker 1:

But you know, like budgeting and whatnot, I can understand, but still, ah, a lot of likable characters. Honestly, yeah, will the main character where Oscar, yeah, but unlike Oscar, I mean unlike Oscar characters. Honestly, yeah, will the main character where, yeah, but unlike us, I mean unlike us, at least will doesn't do all that yelling and shit, at least oh god yeah, like. I mean I know austin chills out over time, but over time, excuse me, but yeah, like that, that did get annoying like the first. What 30 or so episodes facts?

Speaker 2:

hey, I feel like I need to tell y'all a disclaimer. I still have not watched the last episode. I'm trying to save it and I granted we can talk about it's not gonna dissuade me from watching it.

Speaker 1:

But honestly, bro, you're not really missing anything. It's more like fall off damn, I mean fall of all aftermatch here from episode 11.

Speaker 2:

So if you already watched episode 11, you didn't miss anything oh, okay, cool, but um what I was gonna tell you um it's really just setting up season 2, that's all it is yeah, I would hope it would cause. Season 2 is destined to be that gas. You know, a whole bunch of stuff is destined to be great for season 2, like I don't know what it is about season 2 right now.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it's like that't know what it is about. Season two right now. Yeah, it's like that's kind of how it is um formula nowadays, to where you kind of gas up season one to where you're really trying to set it up to where, okay, we try and do well enough to warrant a season two, and that's when all the uh other shit is gonna kick in. It it's kind of like with the mcu to where, okay, uh, we're gonna do it with phase one. It's gonna be experimental, but we're gonna try to do well enough to warrant phase two, and if it does well enough, then all right, we're gonna add more gas to it.

Speaker 2:

So yeah, and granted, we're waiting on a lot of good shows to drop these season twos. You know it'll be crazy, like I'll be really disappointed if I just randomly die out of nowhere Because all these shows I'm waiting to see like that'll be crazy. But yeah, I really enjoyed the anime and Will is a great character. It's just something about his glasses and Talos. Have you read it?

Speaker 4:

You're like advancing the manga right.

Speaker 2:

Because I'm a little curious about that little cat, I think. I think it's a hidden agenda with that cat man oh you talking about Kiki?

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I mean, I don't know, I didn't read the manga yet. I mean that's the thing, I was gonna watch the anime First, and then now I'm Interested't read the manga yet I mean, that's the thing, I was going to watch the anime first, and then now I'm interested in reading the manga, so I'll read that in my free time. What up?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, that was no something.

Speaker 3:

And I'm not spoiling.

Speaker 1:

Okay, fair enough I promise you, I ain't.

Speaker 3:

I promise you, I ain't. I promise you, I ain't.

Speaker 1:

Man, you know what I kinda wish Mira Jane was on here, because I swear to god this one character, sion, he kinda gives me that my Hero Academia vibe to, where you know the relationship between Deku and Bakugou.

Speaker 2:

I got that too.

Speaker 1:

It's like it's like it's more up front, though, to where it's like it's more obvious that cyan, even though he was like the main one bullying him actually, a lot of people was bullying him, but it's like cyan had to make it known that he was the main one, but he was like while he was bullying will, he was like why don't you notice me, god damndammit.

Speaker 1:

You always looking at somebody else, like you know, like when Julius like calls all that beef at the restaurant and then now he's like okay, I'll bet you can just roll up and restaurant this, beat this, alright, bet, bet, bet. And then you know all that shit, and then Julius rolled by and then it's like there you go again. I'm talking to you, motherfucker, and you just gone on.

Speaker 2:

I thought it was funny that, like that episode what was that Episode? Like five or six, when all the people was like, all the people stopped picking on him and noticed him for real, for a minute, yeah, like oh and he was like oh, y'all want to be my friend? She was like no, he ain't gonna fuck with y'all. Yeah, his eyes was shining out of nowhere. Everybody want to be my friend.

Speaker 1:

I'm so excited, decu ass but hey, yo, uh, I do also like that he has that same goals with. Why does it seem like lately in anime? It's like the main character who's like don't have a whole lot of magical talent, kind of like Tatsuya Shiba in Irregular Magic High School. But hey man, just like I said in that review, he may be lacking in magical talent, but with those heaters in his hands and that combat suit on, he's never slacking. Same thing with Will with that fucking sword. It was like, yeah, he got strength on him, like he got that gorilla strength, like almost like yeah. So anyways, uh, yeah, like I was saying, uh, I like episode six where, oh, yeah, now that um Will was doing well after.

Speaker 1:

I don't think it was like right before the grand magic festival, because I know it's like episodes seven through nine, I'm like that, but uh, it was like something before that. I'm like trying to think it wasn't the dungeon crawl with 411. But it was like right before then. Hold on, let me check real quick, but stay with me here. Okay, it wasn't. No, no, god damn it. You know what, fuck it. He did something and people were impressed. They just didn't think that Will had any combat skills, but he showed them. What else about these characters sound like? I don't like Julius, that's for sure, because I thought he was going to be one of those cool characters who's like a prodigy, but he's kind of cool with it. He's not trying to be a show-off or anything, but yeah he's like. He makes me like Siam. It's crazy enough.

Speaker 2:

I like that girl. What's that girl with the electricity?

Speaker 1:

Lihana.

Speaker 2:

Man, she fast man. You know what that electricity power is dope.

Speaker 1:

She remind me of an old girl from Don Mati, the one that Bill looks up to. She reminds me of her. Hold on on, let me try to look that up real quick.

Speaker 2:

I'm trying to remember her name, don't help yeah, cause I'm really wishing we could get more into like the story, like and granted, I know we in the arc with Will Ike Wallenstein, that's the name oh okay, I'm just wishing we could get to a little bit more world building. I want to know the history behind everything.

Speaker 4:

Why is the barrier up.

Speaker 2:

How strong is the barrier? What's up with the faded day? The barrier fall. I'm assuming it's going to fall in season 2. Read a book.

Speaker 3:

Read a book.

Speaker 1:

Read nigga Read Fuck.

Speaker 3:

I keep telling y'all these animes don't miss. They don't miss. Right now they picked the right stuff that has manga adaptations that, literally, I swear to god they don't miss.

Speaker 1:

Honestly, it feels like that ever since soul leveling dropped where, I'm like, oh yeah, we have this separate game. When it comes to like animation and storytelling, uh, by the way, playboy, uh, welcome to the show.

Speaker 5:

How you doing man appreciate it, appreciate it man, all right what up, playboy?

Speaker 1:

what's going? Good, man, hey, real quick, how you feeling about what story? Because, bro, we've been trying to tell people that this show got that sauce like it is gas right now, like the animation, all that other shit. Like, hey, how you feeling?

Speaker 5:

yeah, no, that shit is saucy, dude, even while we delve to the animation, all that other shit, like hey, how you feeling? Yeah, no, that shit is saucy dude. Even while we delve to the animations, to the characters design, to the, to the fight scene. But I had to play that shit back a couple times but that shit was kind of cold oh, you know what?

Speaker 5:

no, go ahead, go ahead now you're gonna say that shit was definitely cold. Man. Well, the fight with uh will and uh julius, yes, shit, man, fuck with that shit see, I was just saying that's my favorite part right now.

Speaker 1:

But I was just reminded how, uh, right before that, where julius and his friends showed up to the dwarf tavern and was just um, being mad, disrespectful and shit. And then will was like all right, let me put down my apron real quick and roll up to him real smooth. And then the two um dummies, like you know, uh, twiddle d twiddle dumb, I call them because they got names, but I'm like fuck it, they don't matter, I just call them um anyways. They were like roll up to like hey, don't get any funny ideas, no doubt. And then, real smooth, will was like just knocked him to the ground, like it was like real fast, like whoa, hold on, let me play that back real quick. Like he did it so fast, like damn, and he's always knocking those two out like in one hit too. It's like that's how you can tell. Like they don't really matter, like the only thing that mattered was that they helped him with the um spell that he was doing with the ice clones.

Speaker 5:

But that's about it uh, I like the story behind the goddamn magic and uh and uh, the the elfie I ain't trying to give it to elfie and shit. It's like. It's like looking at it, you could probably try to compare it to other anime, but you really can't, because it's its own show in its own way, and that's really why I fuck with it, because it's like I could call it a new gen black clover, but there's so much to it that it's not even like black clover. It's like.

Speaker 1:

You know what I mean I feel that I was just saying how it reminded me of a lot of anime, but my main thing was all I'm saying is it reminded me of the elements in those anime that makes those anime real good, like how the music reminds you of my hero academia, to how it gets all triumphant and shit at the right moments. Like how the animation uh reminds me of shield, river, failed knife and soul leveling to where, especially that fight between will and julie's when will was splashing away the icicles and all that. Uh, it reminded me of that, uh, how, in a lot of anime there's always this uh hierarchy to where, if you don't have magical talent, you might as well just pack it up and leave, but uh, we'll just kind of persevere regardless. The only thing I would say it reminds me of black clover was, uh, I said that with will, with that um trench body you know, in episode three and um, what else I forgot, but it doesn't matter, but it was the main thing. But uh, for the most part, yeah, I was just like fucking with it, um, especially at the. Okay, they're now trying to fight all these different monsters. Uh, that's down there, that's like monsters that um didn't have no business even fucking with. And then next thing you know, by the end of it all, you meet Finn and um, the leader of the light faction, and you come to find out that they were like on floor like 46 or something like what the fuck is, like some bait in the abyss type shit. To where it's like the deeper you go, the worse it gets.

Speaker 1:

But, um, overall, like I'm not trying to compare to all those anime, I'm just saying that it had a lot of things where it made those anime really good and I like how it just feels like Omori definitely did his homework this time around on how these different anime work. To where, like, it just had like a certain psychology. To where it's like, oh man, like y'allall, you just doing something right with this anime for real. Now, before I get any further than that, I just want to go ahead and welcome Mira Jane to the podcast as soon as she pops up. It's taking this long, but I'm letting her in. Jane to the podcast as soon as she pops up. It's taking this long, but I'm letting her in. But, um, shit, like I don't even read this anime right now. I know, with season one, only 12 episodes, but one, only 12 episodes but.

Speaker 2:

But the 12 episodes was hitting, all 12 episodes, well, 11. You know I ain't watched the last one, but all of them was hitting man. When my boy put them glasses on, it's over with.

Speaker 1:

Oh, hell yeah, Like the goggles, like the Rest in peace to the goggles. I mean, hold on, can they like, Not like with Rossi, like he just fix them up again. You know, put some glass on them bitch, kind of like that one spill Hermione did in Harry Potter Like the first.

Speaker 2:

Oculus Repair yeah.

Speaker 1:

Like did in Harry Potter, like the birth Oculus Repair, yeah, I mean, y'all got magic, y'all got it, y'all got it and now that you done, said that it really is crazy because Repair is just a spell by itself.

Speaker 2:

She didn't have to say Oculus, but I digress.

Speaker 1:

What up Mirror, jane, how you doing.

Speaker 4:

I'm good how y'all doing.

Speaker 1:

Oh, we're doing. I'm good, how y'all doing, we're doing good. Give me some of that food, whatever you're eating.

Speaker 4:

Nope, not sharing. I'm going to break your finger. Don't touch my plate. Okay you sound like Goku over there Don't nobody want to Goku plate. It is a Goku. Listen, this food is so good, I ain't going to lie.

Speaker 1:

What is it?

Speaker 4:

It's kaboki and I got beef tofu soup. Oh my God, that Korean auntie Listen, she really my auntie. She saw me come in and she was like oh, welcome back my niece. And I was like hey, auntie. And she gave me that beef soup for free.

Speaker 2:

Hey, that's what's up.

Speaker 4:

I know.

Speaker 1:

It's funny coincidence because I'm eating some katsudon that I made at work myself. What, what.

Speaker 4:

Katsudon is Japanese right. No Japanese, no, no, no, Hold on.

Speaker 1:

It is Japanese, but funny enough, we do Japanese and Korean food.

Speaker 4:

Wait, y'all got taboki.

Speaker 1:

We don't have taboki, but we got a whole bunch of other stuff.

Speaker 4:

If y'all had taboki, y'all would live there like we got here, like uh, golby and uh bib and bop and a whole bunch of other stuff that um, y'all got kimbap?

Speaker 1:

I don't think so, like see, honestly, I was like thinking like you know what, hey, let me slide people, because here's another thing like I kind of wish that we had. Uh, I kind of want to try out, uh, takoyaki, you know those um fried octopus balls.

Speaker 4:

Oh, those are so good.

Speaker 1:

Oh my god but uh, mira Jane, how you feeling about Wistoria?

Speaker 4:

I think I'm not. This is a boss ass anime, bro. This is a boss ass anime. It gave me everything that I've been looking for in an anime. Boss-ass anime, bro. Oh yeah, this is a boss-ass anime. It gave me everything that I've been looking for in an anime lately and it gave it to me in such a short amount of episodes.

Speaker 5:

Oh yeah.

Speaker 4:

You know, it was such a good little palate cleanser of all of the. You've been teleported to another world.

Speaker 1:

No offense to those, they're good, but Jesus Christ, it was so many of them it's funny because y'all were just kind of piling in one at a time until we were recording how I just kept saying how it has that sauce, it kept reminding me of different anime. Like it was funny how I was just saying how I kind of wish you were on, because I was talking about how Will and Sion remind me of Death to Unbuckle and I'm like watch Mirror, jeng, go defend Sion for some reason.

Speaker 2:

I'm really upset that she over there talking about Izakaya's like that. Like I mean, it's my favorite genre right now. But it's so many, it is a lot, everybody migrating to a new one too. That, um, when they wake up, as, like the characters.

Speaker 3:

Oh yeah.

Speaker 2:

That's the new thing. Now. I can't. I can't keep up. It's a lot of them too.

Speaker 4:

I can't keep up. No, no, it's so many I got lost in the sauce. I done started merging plot lines.

Speaker 2:

Everybody keep waking up as a villain. Waking up as a villain.

Speaker 4:

Okay, so we not gonna talk about that right now. That whole villain.

Speaker 1:

No, no, no, let me tell you.

Speaker 2:

A trope.

Speaker 1:

Let me tell you a trope that getting kinda tired out for me, the whole demon lord Trope, how it's like there's always a demon lord nowadays oh god bro bro and then two demon lords gonna fight oh my god, I'm so, I'm so tired

Speaker 4:

you ain't wrong? And otome's, I'm tired of them already. I did, that's not. You can read those every. You can read them all. They've been around for so long. Okay, I didn't want those animated they're cute though.

Speaker 1:

MJ, how do you feel about Will versus Julius? Because that was like the best part for me, to where it had the most of everything, honestly, to where, between the fights and the music and the animation and all that, the turn of events yeah.

Speaker 4:

That was such a good fight. Oh, you're not wrong. Not only that, I loved how Julius thought he was going to be using some kind of spell that no one's ever seen before, you know.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it's funny because he was saying how, how, oh yeah, I learned it from elfie like oh, she ain't all that, I'm gonna succeed her and be way better than her, and then will was like I don't take those comments lightly will put that face on real quick.

Speaker 4:

He was like first of all, what? What you not gonna do is disparage Elfie's name.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, like, look here, you're not gonna talk about my friend like that. And second of all, how you gonna flex about a technique that she learned at the age of two, where it has all points of flaws and shit. I'm like wait what I'm like yeah.

Speaker 2:

When he revealed that, he said no.

Speaker 4:

When he revealed that she learned that at the age of two, I was like this man has been tormented his whole entire childhood he thought he was a genius for spending all those years learning the technique that she figured out at two yo thinking he said well I had to fight 12 of them.

Speaker 2:

You can only make eight, like he did.

Speaker 4:

Oh, you can only make eight, like I was like dang. You know what? This is how you write a character who knows their stuff, like he's not weak but he's not super op yet yeah, he reminds you of deku, like with his little book, right, yeah, right, how he's like studious and shit.

Speaker 1:

Like he be learning shit. Like on how. Like oh yeah, I've seen this before. Like I love when he does it. Like oh yeah, I've seen how this been done before. This ain't nothing new for me yeah, I read over this.

Speaker 2:

And then with the uh, with the fight, he was like oh no, because the one, the one that's the main one, always drips water. I'm like, bro, god damn you know what?

Speaker 1:

I remember that one time where it was will and cyan and it was that one monster that almost killed cyan. That's when um cyan was really starting to beat with will to where I'm like I can't believe you're letting me take credit for the monster you killed. Um. I can't stand your ass. But uh, before all that will was like you know what you've been picking on me I said just let him die, I'm like.

Speaker 1:

But oh wait, hold on. I gotta remember I'm a good person, so all right, I'll just go say it do y'all fuck with the? Uh, the teachers uh, workner, yes, uh, edward, edward, kind of see. Here's the funny thing. I was um watching reign of the seven spellblade and that one guy and reign of the seven spellblade, darius. I would have said he was great value snake. Now, edward and wistoria, he got a little bit more sauce so I'm letting him slide.

Speaker 4:

I mean, I don't want to say great value snake either, but he definitely giving me snake vibes all day.

Speaker 5:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, he reminds me of Irma, the teacher from Irma.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah, yeah, the one that was like really hating on Irma. I was like man, what the fuck you doing here? Like I can't wait to get your ears on.

Speaker 2:

It's always that.

Speaker 1:

You ain't never lying, bro. It's always the snake bomb archetype that's like always beefing with some kid for some reason. I'm like damn, like the dude just rolled up in his school.

Speaker 2:

Why you? It's just like, bro. Same thing with Harry Potter, bro, all he did was get birthed by his mama. Bro, you bad, because another nigga smashed.

Speaker 1:

Looking like a goddamn daddy.

Speaker 2:

Don't look at me with them. Motherfucking eyes, pretty ass eyes.

Speaker 4:

He did say that. He did basically say that. That's what he said. Oh my god, snape had it bad, though Snape had to watch that boy grow up.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's crazy, isn't it?

Speaker 1:

No, it's like funny, because it's the child of the Woman he loved and also the child of the dude he hated the most.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, that's pity, I would have walked up to Harry first. That first year I walked up and I'm like you know I could have been your daddy right.

Speaker 1:

He's begrudgingly obligated to look after him.

Speaker 2:

Did we review Harry Potter? Yeah, like a while ago we didn't do it again. We didn't do it again.

Speaker 1:

Nah, remember it was like me and Coco gossip for the most part, and then you joined in at the tail end of it yeah you were there for like the tail end of it let's do a redux.

Speaker 3:

Professor Tuck and Miraj, it's too much on the schedule.

Speaker 1:

I mean maybe in December we'll see. I mean maybe in December We'll see. I mean hold on, we didn't do Fantastic Beasts yet, oh yeah yeah.

Speaker 2:

We can have a quick recap and then go over Fantastic Beasts.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, so yeah, we're going to have like a little intermission. All right, let's yell up to speed how you feel about Harry Potter. All right, now we're going to transition to Fantastic Beasts.

Speaker 4:

Okay, I have a question. Okay, I have a question. I have a question. Was the will versus professor edward fight the fight that we never got in harry potter between snake?

Speaker 2:

and here oh, that's an interesting concept you know what's funny?

Speaker 1:

you get that fight and reign of the seven, seven Stone Blades where Oliver fucking kills Great Value Snake. What? Yeah, go watch it. Go watch it Okay.

Speaker 4:

Alright, i'ma go watch it. I said I wasn't, i'ma watch it.

Speaker 2:

I'm like seven episodes in on that.

Speaker 1:

You're almost there.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah, I'm almost there. I can't wait.

Speaker 1:

It's literally like halfway in when you find out. Oh, he has like a revenge squad going on. He's trying to kill all the teachers because all the teachers killed his mama.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I know he had a list of people.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah, he does Like. The funny thing is, his spell blade is like the torture spell from Harry Potter. That's what his spell blade is. I'm like the torture spill from Harry Potter.

Speaker 2:

That's what it does, bellblade. Is that how I really want to prevent those?

Speaker 4:

Is that like the Cruciatus curse?

Speaker 1:

Yeah, crucio yeah.

Speaker 4:

Oh my.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, it was that. But yeah, like I said, he had a list like Arya Stark, bro, like you gotta spare some motherfuckers off and he had like the magic and shit too. I'ma Stark bro Like you gotta scratch some motherfuckers off.

Speaker 1:

And he had like the mask and shit too. I'm like, oh man, like listen, like just yeah, go ahead and watch Reign of the Seven Spellblades, dude, I mean.

Speaker 2:

I'll be honest with you. He's like the dude from Classroom of the Elite.

Speaker 1:

I'll be honest with you, though Reign of the Seven Spellblades is one of those anime that's really dependent on a season 2, because otherwise it's like it's good, but it gets a little generic here and there it's like okay, it got potential. But let me see season 2, but with story. You don't have to tell me like I'm ready for season 2.

Speaker 4:

I'm on go for season 2. Man like alright who we shipping and uh with story who we shipping and uh with. Sorya Yep who we shipping.

Speaker 2:

Oh, what you mean. My boy, my boy Will finna have a harem.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, because you know he kind of set that up between okay it's uh, elfie, there's Colette, there's maybe Iris Lahana, not yet. It's like kind of warming up.

Speaker 2:

If you around him for five minutes. All the females fall in love with him. Oh my God, I can't believe he got the glasses on, he got his little goggles on.

Speaker 4:

I think we're. I don't think Colette, though I actually don't think why not. I think we're I don't think Colette, though I actually don't think why not?

Speaker 1:

I mean he clearly has a crush on him, but like explain okay, because that's the clear option, since she already has a crush on him.

Speaker 4:

I think it's gonna end up going the complete opposite way, I think she's gonna like red headed dude.

Speaker 1:

I forgot his name uh, sian, sian. Okay, so you're saying that this is the Uraraka Bakugou ship that we should?

Speaker 4:

have got You're motherfreaking right.

Speaker 2:

No, no, no, but no, no, hold on, hold on.

Speaker 1:

Like okay, that one I can kind of see, because you know Will got the eyes on Elfie, obviously. But then again I'm sitting here thinking damn Colette gonna be treated like an old girl. Ichigo, from Darling in the Prawns to where I'm like you know, that boy on Hero's gonna go for Zero Two. The moment Zero Two showed up she didn't stand a chance.

Speaker 2:

LP already keeping tabs on him too. She just trying to you know what I mean. Yeah, I told you about him.

Speaker 1:

No, the whole thing is. Will is like hey, man, I'm doing it all for you, girl.

Speaker 2:

I'm trying to see you, girl. I'm like yeah. I told y'all I was going to see you, yeah.

Speaker 1:

I told y'all I was going to see you, and then he's going to cheat. It'll be like one of those things where, like that special occasion, like I know Talo's already ahead in the manga and whatnot. But I'm kind of speculating from an anime watcher's point of view. I'm trying to think, oh, there's going gonna probably be like one moment where she might like do like one meeting with him, like, but then she got bounced. But I can only imagine that one moment.

Speaker 3:

I'm like hey, listen, elkie, I'm still coming for you, but until then I'm thinking of you and I'm like, okay, put it on, like let's move and all that shit today, today my name is quittin d, and I'm going to tell y'all out here Spoiler, I'm not snitching All I can tell you is go read, because there are a lot of Things and a lot of theories that you all got that you will love to get Confirmed or denied. I promise you, I promise what. I promise what's up man. Read folks. I keep saying this. I know y'all, like Halos, you keep saying the same thing Read. We are in the era where reading and watching is fundamental, like it's there it is there.

Speaker 1:

Honestly, right now it's like the best time to just go ahead and start reading the manga, because the manga excuse me, the anime is brand new. Like you can just go ahead and get caught up in the manga and be like you don't really have to wait for a season 2 per se, but I'm just saying, like you don't want to be like okay, it's been a while with the manga, like the manga so far here, and I'm like hey, yo hold on. Like why are you just done with the anime? Like you can just go ahead and read the manga. Like okay, alright, don't?

Speaker 2:

what story reminds y'all of kaiju?

Speaker 1:

number 10 in the beginning a little bit, yeah, a little bit.

Speaker 4:

Oh, no, no my fault kaiju. Number 10, in the beginning number 8, but a little bit, yeah, number 8, yeah, a little bit oh no, no, my fault, it ain't.

Speaker 1:

Number 10 no like there is a kaiju number 10 in the anime but that's not the name of it.

Speaker 2:

It's kaiju number 8 yeah, it was a number 10, though I remember yeah, you were technically right, but that's not the title but I want to say this I agree with you, talos.

Speaker 4:

I agree people need to go read, but there's nothing wrong with waiting. It's a little mystery. Waiting for the anime to come out.

Speaker 3:

I want you to know something. You just negated everything that you said before that. But with that but and so I'm going to hit you with this real quick right. While you may believe it's good to wait, it's always good to wait, folks. Just like they told you, with Soul Eater, Things didn't go the way the manga was planned. This is why they're redoing Soul Eater now Soul Eater's fixing to follow how the manga ended.

Speaker 2:

They're redoing Soul Eater.

Speaker 3:

Yes.

Speaker 4:

Like the whole. Thing.

Speaker 3:

Yes, they're basically going the same route as how the manga did this time around.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, that's kind of the main reason why we need to review Soul Eater and Fireport next week. No, no, no, it's the week after Halloween week.

Speaker 2:

This is why I tell you you mean like Full Metal, the reboot, like that?

Speaker 3:

Yes, like how they did with Full Metal, like how they basically Like how you know, full Metal, alchemist. And then there's Brotherhood, and you know Brotherhood is very much so different from just straight on the Alchemist. Yeah, so they're doing it relatively different to that point of to where they're following the manga this time yeah, no more of that blue exorcist and black butler shit we don't talk about blue exorcist first off, blue exorcist is great, I mean.

Speaker 1:

I'm just saying, like those last couple episodes in season one, like okay, we're gonna pretend that didn't happen same thing with uh season two of black blood we're gonna pretend I'm about to say.

Speaker 3:

How about be like look here, don't you slander my boy?

Speaker 4:

listen, listen, okay, first of all, I was watching blue Exorcist On them sites you know them sites that I'm talking about. Okay, and not only that. But I stayed up to 3am when it was airing in Japan, to wait for the episodes to drop.

Speaker 2:

I understand that. Did you watch season 3? No, because I was scared I was gonna be disappointed. Yeah, I watched. I started to watch the episodes like Nah, I'm not gonna do it. I'm just scared With Storia, though, like Season 2 gonna take forever to drop. By the time it drops, I'm gonna be playing GTA, so like.

Speaker 1:

I mean, I don't know. It just got announced immediately after the season 1 finale, so I'm thinking late 2025.

Speaker 2:

And when did GTA drop?

Speaker 1:

GTA dropped in 2026. Yeah, it got pushed back.

Speaker 3:

What? Yeah, yeah, gta dropped in 2026. Bro oh, man, yeah, okay. So the reason I'm saying it dropped drops 2026. Bro oh man yeah. Okay, so the reason I'm saying it drops 2026, what it is it's going to be, I think PlayStation will probably get it 2025 at the earliest. Oh good, that's good.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah, that's right.

Speaker 3:

But I say this wholeheartedly the actual full game ain't gonna drop to 2026. Why? Because that's when PC and everybody else will get it and that's when you'll actually get the mods and everything else for it. So it won't be complete until 2026.

Speaker 1:

It just feels like, oh, the console players getting the soft release, but it's like the real release isn't until it's available on PC.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, that's just kind of how it is. Also, once again and I say this wholeheartedly, I know I go back to it yes, talos has been promoting reading books lately. Why is that? Look, folks, I'm a person who will tell you wholeheartedly. Yeah, I've always kind of been one. If I can find a manga first, I'm going to read the manga first.

Speaker 3:

But listen, listen right, when you have anime out here, like solo leveling, like that time I got reincarnated as a slime, like with Storia, and you have it on this level of goodness I'm talking about where you clearly have heard the animation, the head of the animation department, tell them hey, look, look, look, this is just a kid show, this is just a kid's show. This is just a kid's show, we have time. But then you hear the animator say did you just say we got time and they put that work in? Boy? When I tell you, when I tell you, like legit, wholeheartedly I don't know if folks saw it Did y'all see Pokemon as of late? I know we strained a little bit, but did y'all see Pokemon as of late? This is why I say this have y'all seen the Pokemon short as of late? No, if you haven't, the one that I'm talking about is a little short episode where this kid goes to. I guess he's fighting the finals of the Elite Four and he has a primate. Primate should not go that hard.

Speaker 4:

He has a primate. He has a primate.

Speaker 3:

Oh, I'm going to go watch it and his primate turns into an annihilator At the end. But like I said, ladies and gentlemen, his. There is no reason. Pokemon should go that hard, just like it did For Ash at the end. Pokemon shouldn't go that hard. Why folks out here? Why Pokemon out here Getting fights equal To my hero and shit. I mean that's why I.

Speaker 4:

That's why I said why fuck?

Speaker 3:

we're not here getting fights equal to my hero and shit I mean. That's why I said, oh, go read, because going back to it, right, I'm not spoiling which story, but you know the fuck I ain't. If you read which story, you'll know what the fuck coming up, just like they told you about certain fights here in the first season, that one fight fight. You saw how the fight, you saw how the animation went on. I went to the second season.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, that's what I'm saying. You can just tell it's just like the Demon Slayer effect where, as soon as you saw the animation really pop off in the first couple episodes and whatnot, you're like oh yeah, I can tell that this is just a taste of what they really got planned.

Speaker 3:

Same thing. Going with that time, I got Rene Cardin as a slime. Ladies and gentlemen, if you have not seen season three and I'm promoting all of these because once again, I'm still on my premise of read a goddamn book you need to go watch these animes, Folks. They should be in your watch list. If Restorio wasn't in your watch list before, it needs to be in your watch list now.

Speaker 4:

Amen.

Speaker 3:

Yep, definitely, amen, yep, definitely. This is one of the ones I got to say. I give it the grandest of grands. It has earned a 4 out of 5 stars. For me, 4 out of 5. It's earned a 4 out of 5. It deserves this year.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I'll give it like a solid four out of five. Yeah, like a solid four.

Speaker 4:

What's keeping it from being a five?

Speaker 3:

What's keeping it from being a five. What I know about what's coming up next.

Speaker 4:

Oh, because you know, oh, I get it.

Speaker 1:

Mainly because you know what stopped it from being a five is that the fact that, okay, it's only 12 episodes. So, like you know what? What stopped it from being a five is that the fact that, okay, it's only 12 episodes.

Speaker 1:

So like you just said, like you're taking, all the good shit is in season two. So it's more like once season two comes in, then the whole show gets upgraded to a five. Because, keep in mind, we can't call it like a five all the first season. We can't be like way back when. Okay, demon Slayer has been crowned as anime of the decade and I'm like, hold the fuck on, how are you going to invalidate ten years of anime based off one season?

Speaker 4:

Okay, alright.

Speaker 3:

I'll give it a three out of five why? This is also why when I told Longhead, y'all know my Longstanding run up here Against Tuck here About my hero. This is why I told him You'll see what I'm talking about when I say, in order for something To reach goat stags, you got to have a certain layer. I don't know. Yeah, you got to have at least pre-watchability.

Speaker 2:

I'm kind of understanding, because I'm on episode 200 of One Piece.

Speaker 5:

It can't be a one and done.

Speaker 2:

And yeah, I'm on. I was a One Piece hater. I'm no longer a One Piece hater. I'm on the fence on if I should be hating One Piece or not.

Speaker 4:

That's how far I've gotten. Did you see Robin's arc yet?

Speaker 1:

That's my favorite arc.

Speaker 4:

I know it's not called Robin's arc.

Speaker 1:

Enid's Lobby. Yes, oh yeah, I like that you said.

Speaker 3:

Robin's arc.

Speaker 4:

Enid's.

Speaker 1:

Lobby.

Speaker 3:

No, no, he's not in Enid's Lobby yet.

Speaker 2:

No, he's not.

Speaker 3:

I'm saying so. He's in episode 200. So that's why I say he's not there yet.

Speaker 2:

That's an idea, right? When is they going to find the one piece? Oh yes, they will.

Speaker 1:

They just did a recent interview where Oda was like, hey yo, there's going to be an actual treasure. It's not none of that. Oh, it's about the journey, not the destination. No, no, no, there's going to actually be a treasure.

Speaker 4:

It's not the power of friendship, don't worry.

Speaker 2:

There's an actual treasure out there, Somebody keep telling me about Ace bro.

Speaker 3:

Oh Okay, I already got spoiled.

Speaker 4:

I already got spoiled. I want Ace, sabo and Luffy tattooed on me to represent my siblings Chip, dip and Skip.

Speaker 2:

Chip, dip and Skip, that's fly.

Speaker 1:

But no listen one of my favorite moments one of my favorite moments that locked me in on One Piece happens at Enos Lobby and I need you to get there.

Speaker 4:

I need you to get there. Same Same. My favorite Enos Lobby is, hands down, my favorite arc, and I'm going to be honest I know you're not supposed to I'm going to give you a hint.

Speaker 1:

I'm going to give you a hint. Solar King, my boy, shoot down that flag.

Speaker 4:

Oh, my God.

Speaker 2:

I'm not following.

Speaker 1:

Don't worry, that's all you need to know.

Speaker 4:

Honestly, we need a watch party so that way I can cry again. I know that sounds crazy, but I don't mind.

Speaker 2:

So you can cry again that locked me in on the whole anime from that point on.

Speaker 1:

Oh yeah.

Speaker 3:

First off, I want you to understand right. I know we're relatively talking about a little bit of everything. See, this is why I don't do watch parties with certain groups of friends, and I want y'all to know it's nothing against y'all, but I can't do a watch party with y'all because, see, I'm going to sit here and we're going to talk way too much and I know some of y'all got to work. But I promise you I will keep y'all up to 6 am. The sun will catch up. The sun will catch up, I promise. Hold on, look, the sun will catch up. I'm that motherfucker that tell you I got time, I can sit there, you got time.

Speaker 2:

Well, yeah, skip, I want to answer your question. The only reason I give it a 3 out of 5 is I need two stars to be thrown away because with Astoria they're getting away from modern Japanese anime. It was no beach episode in any of the 12 episodes. There wasn't enough fan service what?

Speaker 3:

I knew it. I knew it had to be something goofy. Oh my.

Speaker 1:

God, you're saying there wasn't enough fan service 12 episodes. There has to be a beach episode you know me, you're assuming that based on 12 episodes.

Speaker 2:

I'm a man of culture.

Speaker 4:

Not enough. Ta-tas Not enough cup nuts.

Speaker 2:

I'm trying to see what the ice girl got. I'm going to fight you. And then her little assistant is. What's her name? Elfie? Oh, that one, elfie.

Speaker 3:

The one that ascended. I was with you all night until that right then. Gone, gone, gone. I was with you all night until that, right then.

Speaker 4:

So we gonna fight it, we gonna jump in. Let's go, let's jump.

Speaker 2:

You gonna have to. You see my full name, man. You know it's a nod to Harry Potter, of course, because we're talking about magic.

Speaker 3:

I'm going to let you have it. I'm going to let you have it for the moment.

Speaker 4:

I'm going to let you have it.

Speaker 2:

Professor Albus Brian Wolford Percival took.

Speaker 4:

Alright, since everybody else done rated, I'm going to rate it. This is just based on the anime For right now, this can change. For me, right now, it is a 5 out of 5.

Speaker 3:

Nice.

Speaker 4:

It's a 5 out of 5 because it gave me everything I needed and wanted in 12 episodes and it made me want to go read. It made me want to go read and that is amazing because I have the ability to be like you know what? I'll just wait the next 6 years before the second season come out. I just have to listen.

Speaker 1:

like they just said that season 2 is going to know they might come next years before the second season come out. I just have to think Y'all really listen. They just said that season two's been announced. It might come next year.

Speaker 4:

I'm prepared to wait six.

Speaker 2:

It's going to come out after Spider-Man come out man.

Speaker 1:

Oh, it's real funny. You said that because I was just going to mention that too. Y'all remember how it got pushed back all the way to 2027?.

Speaker 2:

Bro, that's nine months to 2027.

Speaker 1:

It's crazy I know I actually saw that coming, so I'm like I'm not even mad that script was horrible, that I know it was horrible bro, what you know what, it was a rough job they was like yeah, look, yeah, we're gonna.

Speaker 4:

Let's roll with it, fuck it and and I I appreciate what's his name for saying no. He was like no, we is not, which is why I got pushback. Thank god, cause we know what happened when somebody listened to their dreams folly, a duh baby, did we review boondocks?

Speaker 1:

we did in like our early Mm-hmm JB. Did we review Boondocks? We did in like our early this is like way early in the podcast.

Speaker 2:

but we can do a read-up. It's just so funny. That's why Because we always reference something stupid from Boondocks.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, we can. I mean, come on, it's Boondocks, though it's for the culture.

Speaker 4:

That's true, that's true, that's true.

Speaker 1:

It's like you know, there's no knowns and known unknowns, and there's unknown unknowns.

Speaker 2:

Things we don't know, that we don't know. Oh my god.

Speaker 4:

Can we just not talk about the R Kelly episode? Can we just leave that one off the table?

Speaker 2:

Heck. No, it was necessary. No, because listen, because if that little girl moved out the way and usher over there taking people girls.

Speaker 4:

Oh, my God.

Speaker 2:

Did you see the real life dude that said that he was the one that?

Speaker 1:

Listen, my favorite episode to this day always will be the Red Bull. You know, the kickball episode. Because why? All of a sudden I'm feeling like it's like Avatar, the Last Airbender, with that last?

Speaker 3:

moment.

Speaker 1:

I'm like hey, hey, listen, listen, y'all getting kind of crazy. It's like it's kind of what tells what's saying to it. It's like they're kind of raising their standards as far as like animation and music and how, like nowadays, I feel like, um, people are understanding that we are not that simplistic when it comes to fandom. I'm like we have standards, like at this point, where I'm like hey man, like listen, like some of us has been in the fucking trenches since the 90s and early 2000s watching anime. You can't just give us just anything and just expect us to just eat it up Like oh damn, there's like five star gourmet um dinner. I'm like no, no, no, no, no, because like you're gonna have to do a little bit better. You're gonna have to like freeze your stand, you're gonna have to like put it in a little bit more sauce. And that's why I'm glad that wistoria is one of those anime in this year to where I'm like you know what? This one, it's a pass. This one's good, it's got that sauce that I like.

Speaker 2:

Philippor.

Speaker 1:

Oh, playboy, you've been awfully quiet lately. What would you rate with Doria?

Speaker 5:

Honestly, man, man, it's like one of those animes that I just, like you, were saying, because it's season one, I don't want to give it a max, but, bro, it's kind of hard not to, because I don't really see no flaws in this shit. Dude, like the animation, the person, it's like they didn't rush anything. The character development wasn't like crazy. There's really not too much backstory on him yet to know why he's how he is good with. We seen him get swole, we see him get big in his training art. You know what I'm saying. This will just kind of like put the will and willpower he just he just kind of got it like that for all we know, you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1:

Oh, you know what? That's funny because I was thinking like you know what? It would be really cool. It will just run around, Talk. I'll call himself.

Speaker 5:

They call me iron will, because when there's a will, there's a way they could have did a lot with that shit and honestly I'm kind of glad that they didn't do the whole corny knee shit. But they honestly could have, Don't get me wrong.

Speaker 1:

They had a lot of potential. I mean, it wouldn't even be like one of those he's like outwardly saying this, but more in his head it's like one of those fantasies that you know how, like some boys or some girls like I don't know, but like you know how, like some boys or some girls like I don't you know, but like you know how, like we have fantasies of being a shit and all that, and then that's just how it be, Kind of like a Trinibio syndrome.

Speaker 5:

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, facts, facts, man. But if I did have the Raider bro, I'd say on some shit like, uh, 4.5 out of 5. That's fair, that's good. I don't know, honestly, because I really could give it a 5 out of 5. I don't really see nothing wrong with this shit, to be honest.

Speaker 1:

That's okay.

Speaker 1:

Hey, listen, nothing wrong with giving it a 5 out of 5. That's how you feel. That's just how you feel. See, sometimes I'll just give something of that five out of five, like cyberpunk edge runners, like no see, it gets a five out of five because, even though it was 10 episodes and they're gonna make more cyberpunk stories but it's nothing to have to do with david and on lucy and all that but it's like it only took 10 episodes to tell a complete story. That what made it a 5 out of 5 for me?

Speaker 5:

It was definitely different.

Speaker 1:

All I'm saying is, if it's a 5 out of 5 for y'all, I'm going to let y'all have that because it's good. I'm glad that people just see oh man, I see no flaw in all this Me, it's just more, like you know, I'm just going to wait until we get more season two. Give it that five out of five, because I just don't want to be one of those things where, ok, it's really gas now, but if season two which I hope it doesn't fumble if season two or any other season after this fumbles, then I'm like, oh, we're going to have another seven deadly sins on our hands to where the first two seasons were really good, up until that third season, to where the animation started dipping and all that. And I'm like, oh see, y'all could have had a five by five, but y'all started fumbling back.

Speaker 4:

I feel like it was Netflix's fault. That's who I blame, yeah not, you blame Netflix. I'm like not blaming them. They did my anime wrong. I love Seven Deadly Sins. How you gonna do my husband like that. Escanor is my future baby daddy.

Speaker 3:

Look here You're getting like cut right now.

Speaker 1:

To be fair, that's my boy Escanor. Oh, he's so stone cold with his lines.

Speaker 4:

Tuck has questionable baby mamas.

Speaker 2:

I Name one questionable baby mama Name one.

Speaker 4:

They're all questionable, every last one of them.

Speaker 1:

You make it sound like. Look at this creature that he's fucking around with.

Speaker 5:

He has so many I have lost count.

Speaker 2:

It's not my fault that I have to do extensive research.

Speaker 3:

Oh, you have to do extensive research. You say, oh, you're like.

Speaker 2:

Jariah, I fell underneath, jariah was my mentor.

Speaker 4:

That's what we call it now Extensive research.

Speaker 2:

That's why I write so much.

Speaker 4:

How many children do you have now Tuck?

Speaker 2:

You know I have a plethora. I'm on child support for a lot of stuff, but they're going to have to catch me. I just keep changing my social security number. That's all for a lot of stuff, but they're going to have to catch me. I got to keep changing my social security number, that's all.

Speaker 3:

Excuse me, ladies and gentlemen, this is where I call it. This is where I call it right here, because, on that, right there, I'm going to have to toss, tuck out the window. I'm going to have to toss, tuck out the window.

Speaker 1:

Alright. So we got our rating. So overall, from the panel I would say solid 4.5. Let's just go with that. Like it's good, like it's solid, it's great. Like we're not saying it.

Speaker 1:

There is a flaw that we want to talk about. It's more like. At this point, like I said, I just don't want to be one of those's more like. Uh, at this point, like I said, like I just don't want to be one of those things where I'm thinking it's a five out of five stars and then it does something where I'm like damn, like y'all have something going, then y'all fucked it up. So I want to say it gets like a ghost vibe. Like I want to say it's a five out of five, but like I just been down this road before. So I'm just being cautious and being like okay, well, it's like if, if it was longer, like if it was like if it gave it the 24 episode long and it's like you kind of fleshed out everybody's like characters and a little bit more. I'm like okay, okay, cool, at least now when we get into season two it'll be like okay, I feel like I know these characters rather than we were just introduced to them and was like okay, y'all just pretty much like shoehorned in the main cast going forward and instead was like, okay, y'all took your time to like, let us get to know the characters. You know what I mean? That would be like the only thing. But then again, it's like 12 episode anime seasons, it's like normal, that's like.

Speaker 1:

So, with that being said, I'm going to go ahead and close this out Pretty much like we said in the episode. We are going to be working on a whole bunch of reviews. We're going to be working on our website, zonealliancecom. We're going to try to add merch, be working on our website, zonealliancecom. We're going to try to add merch Mirror Jane here just made a blog on Kingdom Hearts and we're going to do a whole bunch of other stuff on the website Discord, where Talos is going to be our lead overseer there.

Speaker 1:

We're going to be more active on social media like Facebook, twitter I still call it Twitter, something, call that. I'm not calling x uh instagram and we're gonna, of course, work on doing a youtube channel like. The reason why we didn't do it now, uh, already is because I want to have, like, this five-year plan going to where, like, okay, we have an idea what we're gonna do with the um youtube channel, but we're not gonna try to dedicate our whole lives to it per se, but it's more like okay, we're gonna put out some videos and see how it goes.

Speaker 1:

But you know, until then you stay nerdy, my friend, and remember that great things are coming. We're gonna go ahead and zone out of here, so have yourself a good morning, good afternoon and good night.
