Future Diary. What can I say about this one? It's delicious garbage and retrospect. And I say this because, even looking back when I first heard of Future Diary, back in like 2010s, like early 2010s, and I heard it was like really good and it's super popular, like uh, back then it was like ranked number nine, but now it's like somewhere in the 30s according to my anime list. But it could be different now. But, to be fair, like it's not boring, like that's just the thing, like that's the main sin of entertainment, to where I hate things, to where it's so boring and so bland that it's not even worth talking about. But future diary is definitely worth talking about.
Speaker 1:So with me, jet Blackest Dream, I'm going to go ahead and dive into this plot with the help of Mirror Jane here. So let's go ahead and get into it. We got Yukitera Amano, this 14-year-old shut-in, you know, kind of loner type dude who observes life and Just thinks down on his cell phone, you know, like a diary. I don't know. I think people actually use Like the actual pen and paper, but you know, whatever people use. But his only Friends were like Dave's ex Machina who's this god of space and time? And his assistant Murmur and you're thinking like, oh, they're like his imaginary friends, but oh, it turned out, they're real. And just for shits and giggles, I guess. Just for you to have something to do in his life. Dave decides to transform his phone into a, I guess, just for Yukiter to have something to do in his life.
Speaker 1:Deyes decides to transform his phone into a future diary that's able to predict the future up to 90 days. And soon enough, he finds out that he and 11 other people are now part of this battle royale death gang orchestrated by Deyes in order to eliminate each other, and whoever is the last one standing becomes the new god and prevents the apocalypse and all that other shit. And while Yuki gets swept into that, he finds himself introduced to well, not really introduced, but more like, uh, you know, shows up trying to uh, protect him and whatnot. But she's also like madly in love with an almost like repeat. Well, you know, see, that's the thing when it comes to yandere chicks. You know, see, that's the thing when it comes to Yandere chicks. You know, gassai, she's like the number one girl, like I swear to God, if you Google Yandere, you'll probably see a picture of Yuno, because she was like the golden child of Yandere girls. Like she was the best one to do it.
Speaker 1:Now, before we get into the main events. Uh, mirajane, what was your impression of future diary when you watched it?
Speaker 2:uh, just like you, I found out about future diary early 2010s right, and I was reeling from school days, so I needed something that was just on that same level. And then here comes Future Diary and I fell completely and totally in love with this anime. It was everything and more for me, yuno's my favorite character.
Speaker 1:Why am I not surprised?
Speaker 2:I have other favorite characters besides Yuno, but she definitely she top tier.
Speaker 1:I mean, yeah, she definitely carries the plot because, let's be honest, we're not here for Yuki, we're here for Yuno, because the way she be handling people like left and right, like yeah, it's like damn. Like she's like really good at this shit, like really good, like suspiciously good, and we'll explain that later suspiciously good, and we'll explain that later yeah, like we will explain that later, but uh, let's go ahead and get into the plot.
Speaker 1:so that was pretty much episode one. Like pretty much explains uh whatnot. But before we get into episode two, there is the fact that they do end up fighting against the third diary user, who is this teacher by day and serial killer by night, and he was trying to track down Yuki and you know, since we helped him out, you know with the darts and what not. That's a funny thing. Like him has darts and he got accuracy. Not gonna lie, like I'm gonna give Yuki credit, like even when he had the gun later on in the series. It's like damn, like he's crazy accurate with this. Ah, but yeah, that was the thing. Like they pretty much took out third and ever since then everybody got eyes on Yuki Taro, since he was like oh shit, like the game just started and first took out third. Oh shit, okay, we got to keep our eye on you, boy. I'm like, oh no, I didn't ask for any of this. Now episode two.
Speaker 1:Episode two honestly pissed me off. Like listen, listen, I'll explain. First of all, uri 9th. I like her, I do like her. However, first of all all, how the fuck, do you smuggle missiles into your dress and fire them off and then, when the smoke clears, you just ride off on a motorcycle. Where the fuck the motorcycle come from? I'm like that's so. That was like so wild that shit. In hindsight.
Speaker 1:But uh, here's another thing like okay, the fact that the students sold out Yuki to the detective by the way, the detective is fourth uh, essentially ninth whole plot was to blow up the school, try to blow, uh, kill as many kids as possible to drive Fourth out, because she knows Fourth is A diary user, because she was like Masquerading as an assistant, like during forensics, and she, yeah, so essentially she was trying to drive Fourth out so she can take out Three diary users at the same time, which is kind of smart on one hand, but the fact that she's willing to blow up kids just to do so, that's just wild for me she's a woman on a mission, okay good lord, like I guess, whatever it takes, anyways, the students fucking sold out on yuki um to the detective and uh terrorism, and he's like man, these people, you know, like man, these kids ain't shit.
Speaker 1:Like you know what, fuck it, I'm just gonna run out and like fuck all these kids. Like you know how ninth had it trapped where, if yuki or you know or anybody like moves around, uh bombs would go off and you know did not care, she did not care for them. Um dive, um, they didn't even care for yuki, so she did what she could to try to um stop ninth, stop 9th. And that's not even the worst part. The worst part about episode 2 that pissed me off is when, you know, bombs were going off and Yuki was trying to run, but then Yuno got to him. This is when she changed to her gym clothes and whatnot and like they were kissing on each other and then Yuki said some shit that Pissed me right the hell off.
Speaker 1:He said this dude said I'm not using her, I'm utilizing her and I'm like okay, hold on, let me pull up the dictionary real quick. Utilize, okay, the practical Method of using something, so you are using her. I like how he used A synonym for using To explain that. Oh no, it's like the writer is looking at it Like fourth wall breakers, like hey, I know what you're thinking. I'm not using her, you know, I'm like bro listen, listen, listen, listen.
Speaker 2:What he said is I just want you to bear with me. What he's saying is that I am giving her the best opportunity to operate at her highest capabilities. That's what he said, okay.
Speaker 1:Okay, that could be something he could have said, but he didn't. And second of all, what the fuck does that even mean? I mean, that sounded better than what he said, but still, what does that even mean? I'm like, oh, so you're just cool with her Going around Killing folks because, oh well, at least you stay safe, like, see, that's the thing. I say that, um, honestly.
Speaker 1:Both of them make shit. Like, at the end of the day, both of them make shit, but Yuki's worse because with yuki he is willing to use uh, you know, in order to survive. So you can say that at first he was more terrified of you know than anything you know, like in episode one, where you saw the famous uh yandere face and he was like, uh, what I got myself into. And then he's like, oh well, as long as she's on my side, I might as well use her. Oh, excuse me, excuse me, I need to utilize her right, sure, okay, I like I'm pretty convinced that he doesn't genuinely care about Yuna up until the last minute, but I'll explain that later. But, um, yeah, that was the main thing that pissed me off about episode two. It was kind of wild, but it does it kind of set the tone for what we can expect for the rest of the series. But uh, mary jane, you had anything you want to add on to that?
Speaker 2:you know, it definitely sets the tone. Not only that, but uh, my favorite part, was you not wrong? Yuki and them darts, he girl dead in her eye yeah, oh my god like, and everything was so like amped up. First of all, you mentioned the, the most glorious face I've ever seen, that yandere face absolutely gorgeous.
Speaker 2:Um, any, if anybody looked at me like that, I'm I'm on my knees at this point. Okay, I'm just saying, but there was something, um, very toxic about yuki saying that he, you know, was using. You know, like there's obviously some issues that yuki has that we will figure out a little bit later, but for him to so openly and willingly admit that that's what he's doing I don't know why, but I found that kind of attractive and I don't know if maybe there's something wrong with him. No, I feel like that was the most honest, that he could have been okay and he said he wasn't using her. I just want to highlight that he didn't say that he was using her, okay, he said he wasn't, he was utilizing her. He said he was utilizing her.
Speaker 1:But that gets contradicted in a later episode, and I'll explain later.
Speaker 2:It does. Okay, we'll get to that part.
Speaker 1:I'm like it's funny that he says this here, but then when we get to a future episode, I'm like you contradicted yourself, sir.
Speaker 2:He does. But the other thing I really liked about the second episode too was you kind of, while we got the good explanation in the first episode of everyone's diaries, seeing them kind of used was so great, because I feel like I'm going to say her name wrong.
Speaker 1:That's why I say who are you?
Speaker 2:that's not like, I'm not gonna even bother you're right, or you so like her uh diary, allowing her to escape, or have escape routes planned out for her just because of her uh, I guess you can say job like, based off of her job, I guess you could say that um is, I thought that was really unique for this anime, like I had never seen something like this before and it definitely set a precedent. Right, like I still don't think we've had anything else like this. I don't, I can't think of, I can't think of anything else that's been similar to this. And then also, too, um, I liked uh, murmur, murmur murmur murmur.
Speaker 2:I like the murmur. Giving like the kind of uh explanations in the background. Setting a tone is almost like at this point I did not trust mirror.
Speaker 2:I thought this was an unreliable narrator ah, it's funny that you say that if I'm being completely and totally honest, at this point I was like I don't know something weird, especially after watching, uh, oh god, what was that? Madoka magica? Oh yeah, no, I ain't trusting nothing. Cute, um, I ain't. Nope, they ain't trust nothing. Friendly appearingly so. So, yeah, no, I was like, yeah, something wrong just imagine, like the opposite to where.
Speaker 1:I'm like if your butt is ugly, I'm like I can trust you.
Speaker 2:Don't tell me the truth at this point, yeah, I would have been like yeah, you ugly, you telling the truth, oh um, I'm like thinking who was it?
Speaker 1:who was it that said it? I think it was chlorella said it, like she's she I think she once said that on. Oh yeah, I like my men kind of cute, but also a little bit ugly. I'm like I can feel that. I'm like that's fair.
Speaker 2:You know what?
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 2:You ain't gotta compete, they ain't competing, and you're not competing we with each other. At that point.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's almost like Buddy from Dumb and Dumber is like. So you're saying I have a chance.
Speaker 2:It's pretty much. Yeah, yeah, that's what he's saying, but no episode three.
Speaker 1:I want to say, not a whole lot goes on in episode three for me, like, as far as I remember, outside of you get introduced to the wackiest of the future diary holders, uh, number 12. I'm not gonna bother with um his name, I'm like, uh, what was hold on? Let me try. Uh, yomosuu Hirasaka. Uh, yeah, I'll just call him Hirasaka, that's fine. Uh, yeah, anyways, he finds Um 9th and he baited on police um pursuit and tried to help her out, but he was also torturing her, I guess, uh, drugging, torturing her to get information out of her from other future diary holders. And also, uh, his diary is like a tape recorder, audio recorder, and I'm like, okay, that's interesting, um, because you know he is blind, so just bear that in mind. But I like how he got this uh sentai thing going on, especially with, like, the other people that he, I guess, hypnotized into helping him. But he's doing his thing Like that's not until like later on. But yeah, I thought he was like one of the more interesting characters out of Beachy holders. But uh, yeah, not hold on.
Speaker 1:Episode 3. Episode 4, that's when get introduced to 6, subaki kasugano, who her whole thing is. She had to scroll and she had these followers and which tells her own death by the end of the day. And this is, uh yuki, already, um, dealt with like two diary holders, uh, well, three, excuse me. Uh, he's like kind of on edge, um, but subaki's like, would you like to stay for the night? Um, and she ain't for handing over all ninth. And I'm like, okay, that's fine, but you know, it's like I don't trust her. But come to find out like there was her whole past and she was violated, which is unfortunate and crazy enough. Her whole thing was okay, let's kill first and second. And before we do all that, uh, everybody line up gonna run and train on second. I'm like, bro, that is fucking disgusting y'all yeah, that was crazy yeah, but regardless.
Speaker 1:Uh, while you know was having a fucking kill streak with the 12th and some of the other cult members, that was being hypnotized, yuki pulled a fast one to where it's like, okay, let's have everybody look at this ball, hey, everybody look at this. And then, while everybody was looking, he threw that dart at that scroll and I was like, well, shit Him and those fucking darts.
Speaker 2:Yeah Him, his accuracy was crazy, I ain't gonna lie. But uh, so I think um 12th. I think 12th he was actually based off of. Is it 12.5? Yeah, I think 12. He was actually based off of, like a uh, this guy in um japan who had a cult following like it was a religious cult following.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and he was like a real extremist and like he didn't so it. It's crazy because that's how he got his followers. He got them by saying that they were going to help the environment, that you know they were going to clean up everything. So they started off as like volunteers to just cleaned up trash that people left on the ground or threw away. So that's that's odd. I thought that was so cool and unique at the time.
Speaker 2:The first time I uh around, I watched this. I didn't know about that cult so I didn't get the reference at the time. But, uh, if you watch stephanie so great channel um, she covered the um, one of the cult members, and talks about how they escaped and everything like that um. But it's kind of in line like everything that he does is kind of in line like the super sentai character. It is actually very much reminiscent of an actual cult leader in Japan at some point. So I thought that was really cool. Like rewatching this again, I was like wow, they really Wow. Like this was something that was actually really happening. This, though, like I was for some reason not expecting at this point, you know, it seemed like you know's distrust was it was really extreme, but it was so different. Does that make any sense?
Speaker 1:like I'm not exactly sure how to explain her distrust and I don't know if it was just because she was fueled by, like her, obsession with uh yugi, but her well, I would say it can go both ways, really like I say it goes both ways, where one, uh, the mere fact that, oh and let's not keep in mind that, uh, excuse me, that six did kiss uh yuki just to make, uh, you know, mad, so it's kind of fair that uh, she would get territorial about yuki being around, um, I don't think I like you around other women, yuki. Um, it's like, oh, bro, like I kind of want to review chowder at this point now, because it just reminds me of panini, to where uh chowder made this new friend. Uh, it just Reminds me of Panini, to where Chowder made this new friend, marmalade, and he Was just like chilling with her and Panini was like I don't think I Like you around other girls, chowder, like I'm like, I mean, it ain't like we even dating like Why'd you trip it?
Speaker 1:I like get over here Now.
Speaker 2:That's right.
Speaker 1:Stake your claim, girl but second thing is well based on how the anime ends. It's almost like she kinda knew she had a creeping suspicion that she shouldn't trust Six. Yeah, that's what it. She had a creeping suspicion that she shouldn't trust Six.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's what it. Okay, that's what it felt like.
Speaker 1:Um, that's what I was trying to say keep in mind, as the audience, we shouldn't know that by at this point, but in hindsight, like you have to have seen the uh, you have to have seen the anime once. Like it's kind of like Attack on Titan, how I mentioned this on Attack on Titan, to where you have to watch some things at least twice, to where you realize wait, hold the fuck on.
Speaker 2:Okay, so I'm not gonna lie to you. The first time I watched this through, I was so just caught off guard by the extreme violence, um, um, what's happening in this anime? It's a lot, it's a, it's a lot to take on. And then, um, the overarching idea of these diaries controlling, uh, your movement, essentially, or if you're gonna live or die, like this life or death situation, was so extreme. So the first time around I watched it, I didn't pick up on a lot of cues, but this time around, as I watched it again, I was like yo, like you, like her distrust was like I was like that's that sixth sense of a woman kind of distrust. You know what I mean. I was like, yeah, something wrong. And I also think that's, like you know, my favorite character, even initially, like she just wouldn't know she had a really good judge of people and that was super cool to watch.
Speaker 1:Now, well, yeah, that is to be fair, because it's funny how, like once, we skip to like maybe episode eight or nine, where it was like, even though these people aren't even diary holders, like she was kind of suspicious of them too, and it's like okay, in the end, like well, I mean, we'll get to it and get to it. But point being is that every time she has like this distrust of somebody, it turns out like, oh, yeah, well, it turns out on, she had a reason not to trust them that's so true.
Speaker 2:She was always spot on about that, like she had a really good six cents. Okay, I have a question. I'll leave no six cents. Six diary user sheet interest. I have a question At this point. I know we're only on episode four, but which diary would you?
Speaker 1:want. I mean, I guess I it's really a tie between the first and the Eleventh, the Watchers. It would be kind of interesting To where you can track Everyone's moves, especially you belong hook it up to uh a server, but then again you don't really need her um diary per se in order to do that. You know people can just hook it up and you know just hacking. But uh, like that's a good question really. Like out of the others, I feel like that's just more like their specialty, uh, it's like kind of Tailored to Um them. But like I feel like first and eleventh Are like the most practical For me.
Speaker 2:Yeah, those are Definitely the most. Yeah, those are definitely the most. It's okay. The fact that his diary, the first diary, was just an indifference or random, was crazy, like what um that's that? That was absolutely insane to me, that the fact that it was based on indifference. But the 11th, uh, I liked his diary. That was really cool to me. Out of everyone else's I think he had the coolest diary, um, but if I had to choose one, I'm kind of stuck between the fifth diary because I thought that one was like that one was definitely. I was like yeah, that's helpful was definitely.
Speaker 1:I was like yeah, that that's helpful. Um bro, you know what? Uh, it's funny that you're talking about fifth, because that's like the next two episodes I want to cover. Uh, so at this point we're introduced to yuki's mother, reya, and can I say she immediately has my respect the fact that she's a video game programmer that works abroad. So I'm like, okay, that's cool. She got some cool points from me. And I like how she's like oh, yuki, who's this cute girl that you brought to our home? And it's like oh, I'm Yuno. And it's like oh, you seem so nice. And then he's like she's like sidebar when you get like, so when you gonna tap that like mama, you know what, mom knew what was up okay and I was like, oh, you gonna make such a good wife for my son.
Speaker 1:I was like, oh, wow really. I was like mama, you're moving too fast too.
Speaker 2:Not only that, but, mom, you don't know this. This woman is crazy.
Speaker 1:Okay, like you don't know, um you have no idea how hard she's getting off on the idea of being married to yuki. I'm like what are you doing this mama? You don't understand. She's crazy, oh my god. But you know what I ain't understand.
Speaker 2:It's crazy, oh my God. But you know what? I ain't gonna lie. Yuki had it made. When you know, though, you can't tell me that he did.
Speaker 1:I almost want to say that, but once again there's an episode later on that contradicts that.
Speaker 2:Okay, all right, I don't think so but I'll get to like.
Speaker 1:it's like once we get to the last chunk of the episode, that's when it's like okay, this is to a point where a lot of shit that uh, that set up in the first half of the anime to where I'm like, okay, it could have gone that way. But then they say or do some shit that's like okay. So it's almost like they don't really know what they want. But I'll get there. When I get there, come back, turns out that the parents well, two people that was part of the cult is the parents of Phipps' diary holder Race Game and he had this coloring book and I'm like MJ, really the coloring book.
Speaker 2:Okay, listen.
Speaker 1:The one that predicts morning, noon and night. That's the one you want.
Speaker 2:Listen, okay. Wouldn't you want to know what's going to happen morning, noon and night? Okay, I like it A coloring book though. Okay, as an adult. Okay, I wish that I could go back to just using a coloring book and only knowing what was going to happen morning, noon and night, because I feel like that's what I would need to survive. Okay, I wouldn't be bothering nobody, I would just be with my coloring book. I wouldn't even be competing. Y'all can go ahead and count me out that is so childish.
Speaker 1:It's kind of cute.
Speaker 2:I don't know. All of this drama that's happening like, if you think about it, all of this drama that's happening like about it as an adult, all the things we have to deal with on a regular basis, no, just give me the coloring book, give me some crayons. I know what's gonna happen morning, noon and night. You know, don't involve me in things that y'all don't need me.
Speaker 1:When nap time comes and hopefully it's right after lunch, all right, but uh, you know what, not so cute, the fact that this kid is like a mad genius, using shit like nerve gas and shit, playing like hide and seek and like I think at one point there was a water running and he was trying to electrocute them all. But uh, see why did he?
Speaker 1:have to bring up it and he was even trying to give him like a lethal injection of some poison shit. But uh, ultimately it was like uh, here's the crazy part, to where it was like this shonen uh power or friendship or, I guess, power of love type thing, to where eventually, uh, yuki was able either yuki or yuna was able to break free and they kissed each other like go get them, and then gave them the strength they needed to take down the five-year-old I mean, you ain't even have to bring up the things that he did.
Speaker 2:I know that he mixed salt water to increase conductivity in the bathtub and create a trap, but that's not the point. Okay, you know what in the bathtub and create a trap but that's not the point. Okay, you know what he See. Now you're just trying to make the coloring book seem bad, okay. And that's not. That's not what I'm saying. Okay.
Speaker 1:I'm just like, at least with first and 11th I can probably put like uh, protective cover over and make it waterproof, what. What are you gonna do when that color book gets splashed on with some water, like just get ruined and shit like what are you gonna do? First of all, it's gonna be like a fucking mush now wait, first of all see wouldn't that kill you um?
Speaker 2:because you're like okay, I mean listen, um, if I had the diary, I mean if me, if I had it, I don't think nobody would mess with me. Okay, I think everybody would leave me alone, I, I wouldn't be doing nothing now. Did he use it for evil? Um, yes, he even put poison in their food, in the tomatoes. You know, that's crazy.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, like in the tomatoes, and Yuna was like hold on, this tomato is a little heavier than I expected. I probably should have thrown this. I don't trust this and I'm like god damn you. How the fuck do you know? I'm?
Speaker 2:from bro bro. This five-year-old was the smartest, freaking fight like he was home alone. That's who this kid was based off of oh, he's kevin mccallister that's who this kid was truly based off of. Okay, because he's like. You know what these dumb behind the door thing? I'll never figure it out.
Speaker 1:God damn, you know why she didn't eat the tomato bro, can you imagine home alone if it was rated r to where it's like, oh uh, these burgers trying to uh rob this house. Well, um, this kid was accidentally left there, but um, little did they know that? Um, this kid was actually like a secret psycho? Little did they know that, um, this kid was actually like a secret psycho? And it's like, oh no, you're trapped in here with me that would have been.
Speaker 1:I would love a remake, the adult version, you know that if they get to the public domain it's gonna be like the same thing with winning the poots, where they're now making like or they already made made a horror version of his story. So like, hey, who knows like it could happen in the future to where I'm like, just imagine they do a horror version of Home Alone yo not gonna lie, that'd be so great. I would all the little toys and traps, actually killing them.
Speaker 2:I mean it would be like oh, you remember that movie, toy soldier boy soldier yeah, it was like I don't think that's the name of it, but like all these small soldiers yes, they came to life yeah yeah that, that it would be like a combination of that.
Speaker 1:That'd be so cool I mean, I always said that I like um small soldiers a little bit more than toys, to a point to where I kind of, with small soldiers, had that franchise going on towards, like all these different toys like rising up um, terrorizing um these households, I'm hey yo. That's like a kind of a better premise than with toy store, like, yeah, toy store is cool and all for a young audience, but Small Soldier would probably have been for the teenage kids. Yeah, imagine Toy Story, but cooler.
Speaker 2:I mean especially right now. I think that would be great, yeah, if we got that absolutely.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I think, oh man, you know what? That'd be crazy too, because in this time period where, let's be honest, like, uh, I mean, there's still toys being made, but like nowadays, kids are just giving ipads and phones, I'm like, hey, yo just watch youtube on your phone, or not?
Speaker 2:and I'm like, damn dude, kids don't even play with toys anymore oh, you know, that's a good like I, I, you know, I think they do. I just don't think it's like it's up to the parents at this point yeah, it's not like how, like when we were kids, we'd be like yeah, I want to play with that yeah, like just excitement. Now it's like hey, kids, you know, there's this new toy out, don't you want to try?
Speaker 1:it's like, unless it's like, um, a game console, like then yeah, but outside of that, that's kind of why this new toy story is going to happen, because, uh, it's like toys versus technology and it's like, oh well, you know, uh, playing with toys is becoming an obsolete pastime. But yeah, let's get back to Fruity Diary. Let's not derail as much as we did in Captain America. I mean, I know you and I didn't, but like as soon as Tuck jumped in, like Jesus, Christ, oh Lord, you know how Tuck is.
Speaker 1:But uh, yeah, that was just about it for episodes 6 and 7. You know, I just had to deal with the kid. And here comes episode 8 when Yuki makes New Friends Kosaka, hinata and Mao, and also Aru Arisayon comes around A little later and I say, say friends, quote, unquote, because even though Kosaka is one of the classmates that sold out Yuki and Hinata, and Mao was trying to kill Yuki and Yuno in the place of Hinata's father Ten, in the place of Hina's father Tim, and I can say he was the only one that actually really cared for Yuki, like really cared for Yuki Like obviously, like you know, mr Steal, your man cared for Yuki, even all that.
Speaker 1:You know. I'm going gonna go ahead and say it. You can sold all of them out, like he sold them all out when, as soon as the parents died, um later on in the series, he was like you know what fuck it like. I don't mind killing all you because I can just wish for all y'all to come back, but that's not how the game works. And in the very end, he ended up with nothing, like he was just lying around doing nothing.
Speaker 1:It was like oh well, it's a consequence of my actions. It's a consequence of my actions, but we'll get back to the ending. Um, as soon as we talk about how, like, essentially, uh akise was trying to play a mind game with hinata and mao as far as, like, holding all them hostages while a pack of vicious dogs was um surrounding him, whatnot. But then, but then Yuki once again do some bullshit that I don't like. He was like okay, as soon as they, you know, was able to get the upper hand on Hinata and Mao and whatnot, stabbing Mao, and I think she had Hinata at the throat with the fucking knife.
Speaker 2:Uh, either one or the other.
Speaker 1:Yeah. And then Yuki stood there like I gotta get her to stop because, see, here's the thing, uh, even though, yeah, they did try to threaten my life and one of them did, um, sell me out to an actual uh killer, like they're the closest thing to friends I ever had, so I can't get rid of them. So I'm like, bro, first of all, like how down bad are you to where, like you, like it's almost like you can have no self-respect, honestly, uh. And second thing is what? The worst part, not even worse than that, the worst part was when he decided you know what, hey guys, leave her alone. You, you know, leave her alone. Listen, it's like no, no, I, you don't understand. Like I don't trust any of them. Y'all like, listen, like you're gonna have to trust me on this one. Like just put the knife down, all right guys, listen, uh, y'all gonna have to trust me on this one. Like just put the knife down, all right guys listen, y'all going to have to be nice to Yuno because he's my girlfriend and Yuno's like Yuno.
Speaker 1:Really Yuno's like nigga here.
Speaker 2:Listen, you know what. I'm not going to lie to you. If there was ever a cheat code to the game, he got it. He got it.
Speaker 1:So you mean to tell him you got your psycho stalker to stop trying to kill the person that tried to kill you by claiming her, and I'm like I really want to set that to get a stop and I'm like I really want to set that together to stop. And then he immediately was like, oh man, what I got myself into this time. I'm like you didn't really mean it, but now you just gone.
Speaker 2:Now you're just rolling with it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's like, yeah, like I might as well play along, like I mean, she's really helping me out with this survival game, so if she wants me to be her boyfriend, then I'm like, okay, let's let her run around with the narrative that she ever wanted to put in her head, but I'm just telling her what she wanted to hear. Really.
Speaker 2:Oh my god, I'm going to try to sum up this, can you?
Speaker 1:imagine um yuki struck her along a little longer and I'm a slut. And yuna got to a point like so what are we?
Speaker 2:I'm like, oh, I'm gonna sum up. I'm gonna sum up yuki at the end, because yuki is the person that I he was my least favorite character and I'm trying not to like, I'm not gonna try shit on him right now. Okay, I'm gonna wait till the end, because that's when I feel like it's the best time to talk about Yuki. But I could only imagine if he did shrink her no, she, it would be school days. That's exactly what this would turn into. Yup, yup. I feel like school days is the what-if scenario.
Speaker 1:Oh, good lord, you really want to review school days, huh.
Speaker 2:I love school days. We gotta talk about it the most toxic relationship I've ever seen in my life. Why are you like this, mj um? You know all the animes I've watched. They've made me this way, okay good lord, okay.
Speaker 1:oh, by the way, uh, after uh yuki called off Yuno, come to find out that Tenth got doned by Fourth. So there's that, I have a question how did you feel about?
Speaker 2:well, what did you think of the reader diary? Like the diary itself, like, what did you think of, uh um, hanata's dad, basically?
Speaker 1:uh, I felt like he was the one dude that was like, oh well, you know, I mean, that's crazy, like uh, the motivation for some of the people to even get involved in these games, because you kind of understand well, you definitely understand where you know coming from being part of this game, and the plot tells you why Yuki's involved, but you don't really see.
Speaker 1:And also John Bacchus. You know his reason why he wants to be part of the game, but you don't really know the reasons why the other ones are. So, with 10th, I think it's like one of those things where, oh well, uh, I didn't think it was gonna be like this. So he was really trying to like bait it out, almost like he was trying to bunker himself to a point where, okay, let's just let everybody else kill each other and just stay in hiding. I think he was playing the defensive for the most part. That's why he had his daughter take his place, even though he didn't really want to do that at first, but she kind of volunteered. But you know, I just felt like he's just an old dude that wasn't really trying to get that involved in the games. He just wanted to take care of his dogs.
Speaker 2:So yeah, I felt the same way too, like, but I also felt like when he told uh hinata that his goal was like to bring his family back together. Do you think when he, like, later admitted it that it was like, when he admitted that it was basically a lie. Do you think that he only said that to help, to help Hinata move on?
Speaker 1:Yeah, I can believe that.
Speaker 2:Because it seemed like he truly wanted to replace Deus Ex Machina, like it seemed like that was his goal, like it really seemed like that's what exactly he was trying to do. Once he realized, I think because he was older, he realized the depth of what was happening around him. Yeah, way sooner than, obviously, the kids. Yeah, but yeah, that was, I think he was one of my favorite characters, like he was also one of my. I just kind of related to his sensibility of wanting to, like, protect his daughter and I thought that was really cute. I did.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I thought it was cute. I mean, he was a horrible father, but I thought it was cute. Yeah, he was a horrible father, but I thought it was cute.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it kind of felt like he loved the dogs more than he loved his daughter, but then his daughter was like Ah well, you know, dad is dad.
Speaker 2:I ain't gonna lie to you. He definitely loved them dogs. He was jazzy.
Speaker 1:The crazy part is how, like, he gave them the gourmet food and shit and then he didn't have no problems slurping down those noodles. How do you let the dogs eat better than you, jesus Christ?
Speaker 2:That's how some people are. Maybe it was a play on how people took better care of their dogs than themselves.
Speaker 1:Maybe that's what they were trying to get at at this time. Wow, yeah, it was to end it at this time?
Speaker 2:Wow, yeah, I can see that it was a huge thing at this point.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I can believe that. Um, I want to say with the next two episodes, 11 and 12, that was when they go up against 4th, while 9th was at the hospital Keep in mind that Mama Amina was in the hospital Because Yuno accidentally hit her in the head with a hammer Running after 5th, so while Yuki was visiting his mother in the hospital Checking off her ownership, that's when 4th decided to make his move, while ninth was um, running around as a nurse, um, explosions and whatnot, and fourth was like bandaged. Ah, it was a whole thing, but ultimately, uh, fourth end up biting the dust this time around. You have anything you want to add on to all that? No, no, that was it Gotcha. Yeah, it was like a whole bunch of shit going on Yuki and Yuno running around the hospital while the police were surrounding and all that. The main thing, uh, fourth motivation, keigo's was that he had a son that was dying and basically he wanted to win the game in order to heal him.
Speaker 1:But later on the series, uh, ninth does his partner, uh, saw nishima, I think his name was. He does nishima nishijima a favor? And well, does it really count if it was the third universe. So, yeah, like, once again, people underestimate uh string theory to where it's like yeah, you technically went back in time in the third universe, but does it matter? Like, because it's not like the same as in time in the third universe. But does it matter Because it's not the same as you did in the second universe where things took place? But I don't know, I'm just Let me stop poking holes, because we're going to be here all day.
Speaker 2:You and string theory man.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, yeah, 13. Man, yeah, uh, 13. I wanna say not a whole lot. I wanna say that happened here. Oh, wait, wait, wait, I lied. Uh you're thinking that that Bidet has realized that uh Murmur might be manipulating uh the events that's uh going on with uh force elimination? Uh, maybe she wants the game concluded before he has a chance to retire, and then they both challenge each other on who's going to win the game. Murmur things that Yuno's going to win and they believe that Yuki's going to win which is funny, real funny, how that set that up.
Speaker 1:But meanwhile Yuki and Yuno go stargazing. Yuno alters his destination along the way and, worried about his safety, aru contacted Nishijima and they managed to figure out where Yukiyuno's location is at a holiday resort. Here's the crazy part. Like Apparently, like I think, yuno drugged Yuki and next thing you know he was like bound to a chair, sorry. Well, yuno was like down to her underwear, feeding him scraps or some shit. Like it didn't look good. Honestly. Like he do look like emaciated, like almost like he. How long you had him here for? Like why does he look like he hasn't eaten In days? Like Jesus?
Speaker 1:But, um Hinata, mao Kosuka and Aru Um hunt him down and uh, basically, hinata and everybody else had to Fight Yuno and whatnot, because Yuno really Wanted to kill them At this point, because you can't, you can't into my Yuki time.
Speaker 2:That's pretty much what she was saying. She was like listen, bro, this was the epitome Of like my boyfriend Keeps playing video games, I'm gonna smash His playstation. Like that is what was happening here.
Speaker 1:B. This is why I can't Be dating a girl who don't understand that sometimes gaming is Life. I mean not too Much, like I know you don't want to be one of those dudes where, like because trust me, I've seen it before uh, you don't be one of those dudes where, uh, you're just spending all day, every day, on your computer or playing on your console. And then it just seemed like you haven't even like left the house and whatnot, probably didn't shower or whatnot. And then I'm like bro, like that's just an unhealthy obsession you have with this game, like I would at least juggle like two or three things like throughout my day, rather than just playing the game. Otherwise it just feels like I got nothing going on with my life.
Speaker 1:But sometimes some dudes just want to sit down and play the game. I'm like and it's a real crazy part of how, like you do all this different shit, like even in, even if, bro like you could be straight up staring at your girl, like doing nothing, but staring at your girl like I give you all the attention in the world and then she's like, can you like stop, because that's just getting creepy. Alright, fine. Then he rolls up into the next room as soon as you hear that playstation beat and I was like I think it's funny that you don't give me enough attention. I was like Did you not?
Speaker 1:Why are you all like this?
Speaker 2:First of all, don't include me in y'all. I may love you, but I ain't like that. I just admire her tenacity and also I understand, um, and also I understand, because, also, gaming is life for me. Um, there are times where, you know, I forget to pay attention to the person I may or may not be in a relationship with because I have, you know, stardew Valley on my brain, or coding also, and lately I've been obsessed with making spreadsheets. But that's not the point, okay, the point is that I ain't, you know, and I ain't like some of these other girls. Okay, I'm just not. And I ain't trying to be a pick me, I just understand.
Speaker 2:You guys have been playing games a long time. I get it now. Do I have rules? Yeah, the rule is I need at least an hour of your time before you start doing anything else. After that hour, you are free to go about the day, okay, but I at least need an hour of your time. See, that's what you don't need to say. She just needed to set boundaries. I mean, she did. She bound him to a chair, literally, but you know healthier boundaries, and I think we wouldn't have gotten here. Really, though, what was she feeding him?
Speaker 1:Yeah, some kind of cruel. That's the funny thing. You kind of Cruel like that's funny things, like you know it's not that appealing when it's like it's just like some of that Prison food, like that's cruel. I mean, hold on, to be fair, I think actual prison food Is not that bad, as I heard. But Like you know the stereotypical Cruel that you would see when you like have Some captive, but like you know the stereotypical rule that you would see when you like have some cat.
Speaker 2:Yeah, oh, maybe it was the dog. Oh no, you know I didn't. Oh no, I hope not. I hope that that's what that wasn't what that was. I need an explanation. Can somebody Explain? I need somebody To let me know what what them skulls was Like. Were they human skulls?
Speaker 1:Well, here's the thing, the skulls we forgot to mention. How Well, here's the thing, the Skulls. We forgot to mention how, like, when Yuki first visited Yuno's house, he found out there were like corpses in like a room that Yuki shouldn't have been in and that really affected the whole plot because he wasn't supposed to know that. But, uh, he kind of, they kind of brushed it under um the rug for a while and then it goes um full circle back into that to where aru, being a detective that he is, um, he, uh, essentially, um, found out that, um, there was like three corpses that was dug up and two of which had their skulls removed. So that's mommy and daddy most likely that's mommy and daddy but three corpses was dug up.
Speaker 1:two of them had their skulls removed. Oh wait, what's up with this third body? Like who is this? And we don't know who it is exactly, but we'll find out later. But yeah, it was like fucking crazy. I mean, yuna was going as far as like to uh abduct and bound, like, keep on, like locked away and all that shit until july 28th, where essentially, uh, yuna wants to get her happy ending.
Speaker 1:and that's why I'm saying like you can't, I mean not, you keep up damn their names are like so similar, like you know, like you know ain't shit, because essentially her whole thing is, even if you say that, oh yeah, she's in love with um yuki.
Speaker 1:Um, first of all, her thing with yuki is more like an escape from her own bullshit to where, uh, she's like this cute honor student, but her parents are like abusive and it's like like I swear to guys, like they're like one of those parents where if she doesn't get a perfect score on her own test and shit she just gets, they just get angry at her and to a point where like, oh well, like we'll just lock you up in this cage and we'll make you think about what you done, like you need to bring honor back to this family and shit, and keep in mind she's adopted. Like they can't physically have kids, so they just adopted her. But uh, they just putting all these expectations on her to a point where they just treat her like an animal and I'm like uh, okay, I see what I did there, but anyways, uh, um, it's just crazy how, like they just kind of give all this expectation to her.
Speaker 1:But you know, eventually she just snapped and I ended up, um, putting them in the cage and just didn't bother to let them out or didn't feed them, or that much.
Speaker 1:They just end up dying, and this was like before she ran to uh yuki and they had like this moment in that classroom and she was like, hey, yo, what are you up to? I don't know, not much, and I'm like uh, just planning on doing this, are you? You know, you seem pretty cool. I'm like, yeah, you do too. I was like, uh, you want to do one um in pretty cool. I'm like, yeah, you too. What do you want to do in the future?
Speaker 1:I'm like you know just want to Go see the stars. I'm thinking about being an astronaut. Oh shit, that sounds good. What do you want to do when you grow up? I don't know, you might think this is crazy. No, no, no, tell me. I'm like I'm thinking about I want to be your wife. One crazy. I was like no, no, no, tell me, tell me, tell me, I'm thinking about I want to be your wife one day. I'm like Okay, well, you know, you know anything can happen.
Speaker 1:So Like maybe in a few that might happen, you know. And I'm like really, I'm like, yeah, I'm like then I'm kind of jumping, but then, ever since he said that she was like stalking him, even in that fucking mascot suit, trying to make sure, trying to keep him separated from that other girl that he was like interested in, because I'm like, oh hell, no, you're not going to get away of my man.
Speaker 2:And my future sister.
Speaker 1:But yeah, like ever since then that just kind of sealed the deal to where Yuna was more obsessed with this happy ending Because in the actuality she was looking for escape from the life that she was living to, where she just felt uh, imprisoned, like she was just treated like a prisoner or a slave to her own parents, like it was just bad, it was very abusive, but like good thing that wasn't the case in the third universe. But uh, yeah, like, eventually, uh, the gang was able to outsmart yuno, which is funny because with yuno's diary on, the diary that's able to track yuki's every move, she couldn't tell, tell that he planned on getting free with her fucking diaries, like she didn't get notifications. Like, oh, yuki broke free. I'm like what? But yeah, he broke free and I like how he just slapped Yuno across the face and screw you and just left. I don't like to see that. You should have kept that same energy right there and kind of bossed up and shit. But nah, you can still bitch me. So I mean, you ain't wrong.
Speaker 1:Oh, and another thing that kind of makes you know, kind of Almost like, this is like some typical I don't even say typical chick shit. I'm like typical human being shit to where, oh, as soon as you being questioned about some shit that you don't want to talk about, suddenly she want to have, like, uh, selective amnesia. Do I like? Oh well, I don't know what you're talking about and I'm like hell, no, like they kind of made it sound like it was an actual thing, like an actual mental condition that she had. But no, that's just what people do. Like, oh, you're questioning about things they don't want to talk about. Oh, you're getting too close to the truth. I'm going to be like, oh, I don't know what you're talking about. Kind of like with uh, one of I like uh, the way they did it to where vision was finding out about, uh, wanda's, uh, how she was able to like control the people of westview and whatnot. And then one I was like I don't know what you're talking about, stop lying to me.
Speaker 1:What is it about people, when they get close to the truth, that people other people just aren't freaking out like oh my god, oh my god, they're getting so close to the truth I think it's just that fear because, like, the main thing is, a lot of people wouldn't do what they do if there was a chance that they could get caught, because that's that's kind of the thrill, why a lot of toxicity tends to range where it's like it's not even about the act of doing it, it's more lines of doing it and getting away with it.
Speaker 1:It's almost like that rush. People get like as far as um, my impression of it, like my explanation, because sometimes I had to ask around, be like, hey, yo, uh, what's up with people like doing all this shit that they're supposedly not supposed to be doing, but they just do it anyway. And then some people just straight up be like, oh well, you know, I just like the rush of it, like it's just so exciting and shit. You know, like when people cheat, where it's like sometimes it's not. Well, you know, sex is sex, but it's almost like people wouldn't do it if they knew they could get caught and there would be like consequence to her action. So that's why they try to keep it as hush as possible. But when you call it on to them, then they do all this defensive talk.
Speaker 1:And you know, then they're scared, then they're all like, oh my God, you know they start gaslighting you and thinking like, oh, you don't know what you're talking about, Trying to question your memory of what you witnessed, Even if you have evidence. It'd be like that Shaggy song Wasn't Me, but we caught you on camera. I'm like hey, wasn't me.
Speaker 2:Facts.
Speaker 1:Yeah, people can be ridiculous like that, but you know what's kind of a Breath of fresh air, what With Marco and I, to where these I want to say they were like close to being Couple goals, where it was like this dynamic duo, this Bonnie and Clyde type situation, and it's funny because they do end up dying together, but like they had this Bonnie and Clyde situation situation and it's funny because they do end up dying together, but like they have like this Bonnie and Clyde situation, and what I love about them most is that they were like working together, they were trusting each other. It's like they have that healthy relationship dynamic which Yuki and Yuno didn't have. And even better than that, how Marco was like fucking grilling Yuki for, you know, trying to stand up to you, for your woman, and all that. But then Yuki once again said some shit that really made my blood boil. And here's the first contradiction that I got for you, mj, based on our previous talk not too long ago.
Speaker 1:On our previous talk not too long ago, man yuki said in the second episode oh, I'm not using her, I'm utilizing her. Flash forward to episode 15 or 16. Um, you know, in this chunk right here, yuki said oh well, it's not my fault. She said it's okay if I use her. Oh, so you do, so you are using her. What was that she said back in episode 2?
Speaker 2:Listen, listen. Okay, this is just a moment where he's terrified.
Speaker 1:This is not an admission of guilt because you know he's using her like, let's be real, like, even if, like in that moment where I'm like, oh well, you know he's just trying to uh bounce off any accountability for his own accent, but it's almost like, see, in this moment it pissed me off how like, essentially, uh, how they're like, how yuki and yuna are codependent towards each other is that you know, need like. See, here's the thing codependency. One of them needs something and the other needs to be needed.
Speaker 2:Yes.
Speaker 1:And I think it's that with Yuki, he just wants to survive and, you know, just wants Yuki to be with her. So it's almost like she needs to be needed by Yuki, you know. In other words, words, like she needed something to validate her own existence, otherwise she would have nothing to live for. Meanwhile, yuki was just using her or on his own needs, but, like, in actuality, it's like he it comes, like he doesn't really care for it genuinely, up until the last minute, like when they were actually fighting each other, and then it was like, oh yes, you weren't in the fact that he actually has love for her. But I'm like I'm not buying that though, because it just seemed like you were using her like a human shield and also like, kind of like, uh, you're.
Speaker 1:It's almost like the reverse situation, to where, like I mean I won't say a reverse, but you know how there's this meme to where it's like, oh, he asked for no pickles. That's them. Like you know, it's that girl that was standing up to yuki with a fucking katana or a gun or whatever case may be. Be like pointing, like pointing at McDonald's employee. Be like he asked for no pickles. Oh, oh, oh, but um, I guess that's just the thing. It's like. It's almost as if Yuno just needed someone to give her a reason to live for, and meanwhile with Yuki it just kind of felt like.
Speaker 2:Yuki reminds me of that guy in school or girl in school who just acts like they don't care about anything, who doesn't really have a direction or purpose, and but they're content with that, like they're cool with the fact that they don't know where they're going, or like they just kind of want to see their pants I was going to mention how, like with yuki, it's almost as if he's one of those types that needs to be told what to do, like kind of like what Kosuka said to him in a later episode.
Speaker 1:To where, essentially, I'm not going to make you do anything and that's just the problem with Yuki. To where it's like he has no, that's the main problem with Yuki. He has, like he has no, that's the main problem with Yuki. He has, like he has no agency up until a later episode. Like that's just funny. Once again, this last leg was like the best part of the series, but then again it just kind of felt like they were just going hog wild at that point. But the main thing is Yuki just had no agency throughout the majority of this uh anime. So that's what really bothered me, to where, like he wasn't really taking charge, he was letting you know, take the wheel for the most part I mean, but that's the uh, that's the indifference, right like I think that their uh diaries explain exactly who they are like you saying that uh
Speaker 2:you know, is basically constantly taking charge and she doesn't have purpose without yuki, like that's why her diary is surrounding him and everything that he does, because without him she can't even think straight, like she's a complete zombie without him. But then she also needs to be needed. So when he, at moments or times, acts like he no longer needs her or there's other people attempting to quote unquote take her place, while she may have good instincts and she's right to not trust these people, she's going about it the complete and total wrong way.
Speaker 1:She's like okay, I just have to get him away and then he'll see that he doesn't need them and that he only needs me, right, I mean you it almost not exactly, but it almost reminded me of my titanic theory, to where you know, the movie titan with rose, where, um, she was in this relationship with this guy, to where, yeah, he had money but he was being abusive to her and then she was about to fall up from down the boat until Jack just magically showed up and then they just had this whole romance going on in the ship, but up until the end where they were both floating, she was on the door and he was just hanging on. Then he just, you know, sunk to the bottom of the ocean, blah, blah, and she was rescued, but they could not find any trace of jack or no record or anything of him. And the theory was that jack was just a figment of her imagination, because she was so she wanted out of her situation, so bad that she was willing to make up Jack in her head, almost like a delusion that she kind of materialized, but even though I don't think anybody else noticed Jack. But my whole thing was almost like she Fabricated this whole relationship In her head with this guy that she was more attracted to. So that way it was like Her escape from a Bad situation and I guess you can say, without that Motivation or that um Targeted desire For Yuna is more like Without Yuki, like pretty much what you said.
Speaker 1:It without Yuki it's almost like she's just a blank slate. She just don't know what to do with her life. Uh, outside of Uh, you know grades and shit, because she was basically Um, doing what her parents Told her to do, but, um, she didn't really have any direction for her future. In fact, you could say that you know. Ironically, even though the show is future diary, she was so stuck on the past, like and not just what happened with her parents, but from the first universe. Yeah, and not just what happened with her parents, but from the first universe.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:So she's so stuck on what happened In the past that she was trying to make sure that Things are gonna be different In the second universe. But if Even knowing that People coming back to life that's not going to be a thing like um days, is capping with you as far as like resurrecting people, like once they're dead, they're dead. So she knew that the whole time. But she let you keep, uh, running around with that idea that, oh, if he wins the game, he'll bring them back. But the whole thing was that, uh, I think what happened was he, she?
Speaker 1:I don't know where she was going with that by july 28th, where you get the happy ending to where I guess where she was going for, because, keep in mind, I guess her plan was, since she was already a god, by the way, we might as well just keep jumping at this point. We're almost done with the episode count From alphabetical, but point being is that she was already the winner From the first time around, because their plan was With I want, plan was With, I want to say Yuna Prime and Yuki Prime.
Speaker 2:Is it?
Speaker 1:Their plan was they were the last two left, so they were going to Do the whole Romeo and Juliet thing and commit suicide. But it was like a whole Haha. Surprise, we tricked you, but Yuki actually took it for real and he ended up dying.
Speaker 1:So Yuno Prime became god of the first universe and she was like, oh well, you know what, let's just do this all over again. So she, I guess, time traveled and went to the second universe to try to do this all over again. So she, I guess, time traveled and went to the second universe to try to do this all over again. And I'm guessing the genes behind this time around is where, if yuki won, I'm like wouldn't that make both of them gods? And well, she did die because she, like she stabbed herself and dead. But I guess so.
Speaker 1:But I'm like what was her plan from there on? Because, like, with the universe, like breaking apart the longer it was going, with days not having a successor to fix everything. Keep in mind that at the very end, murmur told uni, not uni, uh, yuki, uh, hey, yo, like you can like make a new universe like it's been 10,000 years, like you're not gonna rebuild anything, like nah, I don't feel like doing anything, but like that's, it's kind of things like it feels like, ironically For people who Was able to see into the future, they really didn't plan on a future together.
Speaker 2:No no.
Speaker 1:It was like they were just trying to go ahead and get to July 28th, at least For Yuno. Yuki just wanted to Survive the game. So, yeah, that was all crazy. But back to Seventh. I just like how Seventh's relationship challenged Yuki and Yuno's. I like that little respect up until the end. And oh, yeah, here's the thing.
Speaker 1:A lot of people in the anime community like to give guys like goku a lot of slack for being bad dads, but I don't give them that much um swag. For when you consider that yuki's dad is way worse, uh, because this guy comes along, it's like, oh, because he has like gambling day and what not, he comes back into the picture and even though mama Amano was like I don't know about you, I'm around here. But Yuki's like, oh, dad, you're here, we can finally go stargazing together and all that. But then, essentially, dad takes the one parachute together and all that. But then, essentially, dad takes the one parachute that they had, and then Yuki feeling betrayed and shit.
Speaker 1:And then he parachutes down to the bottom of the tower that Yuki and Yuno was fighting Seventh in and my mom was running around like yo happened, um, yuki, why do you have the one pairs you? And then, uh, dude, kind of freaked out, I guess, and then just like, oh, I just need to you up once and for all. And then just uh, stabbed her and killed her and I'm like, see, that's the thing, that's the one thing that made me mad to where I'm like he didn't really need it to die. There was like no real reason to kill her.
Speaker 2:No.
Speaker 1:And then what's even make it even worse is that when dude comes home injured and all that, yuki demands that he turn himself in for killing his mom, even though there was like no actual evidence of that. But uh, yuki tried to trail him down, trail down, daddy Amano, from a pawn shop in this local shrine, trying to find some sort of evidence. He just wanted to visit the site where his family was going stargazing and what not, and then trying to reconcile with Yuki. And then Yuki was like oh okay, up until he got stabbed in the night by one of our 11th, one of 11th's agents. So I'm sitting there like wow, like so much for redemption art, but then again he's a dickhead, so I'm like I don't even feel bad for him dying, I'm just more upset about the mom dying for no fucking reason other than he just showed up and made things worse yeah, yuki's dad definitely was trash like there was.
Speaker 2:No, there was no way around it. There is no like defending him at all, not to mention like I really didn't see a point. To be honest with you, I didn't really see a point in him coming back at all in the first place. Like that part of it kind of confused me a little bit.
Speaker 1:I guess it was to give, yeah, go ahead.
Speaker 2:I guess it was to give a little bit more like backstory for Yuki.
Speaker 1:But yeah, like I would say that, uh, it did give backstory to Yuki's um family and all that shit, uh, but I think it also helps to drive the plot that they were going forward to where, oh well, with his parents dead he can.
Speaker 1:He now has more agency to win the game, become god and revive them. Because once again, like when he ended up killing off all his other friends, he was like thinking, oh well, it doesn't matter, I could just revive y'all later, like you'll forgive me later, and but that's not actually how it worked. So I guess that was the main thing was. Which still pissed me off, because it's almost like you half-ass the way you went about it, just to get to a certain plot point, like, in other words, you're trying to force Yuki to have some agency in the story. So you gave him a reason, but the reason just, and it felt out of nowhere, you know. I mean like there was no reason for mama mono to die the way she did. He's like, even if I don't care for our daddy Amano is like him, just acting astray out of nowhere just because he just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time also feels kind of lazy.
Speaker 2:So that's just me yeah, no, I agree with you. I think that's why it felt so out of place to me. It just felt kind of like, did we? I think there was a better way to go about giving him this sense of like a urgency to want something more. I definitely would have liked more of him kind of growing up around. It took so long for him to realize he needed you. Uh, you know, it took a long time and I think I would have liked it more if, like, there was more hints on like him realizing it, like more moments where it's kind of in his face that like, oh, this out of anybody other than my mom who cares about me, she cares about me. I think his indifference actually you know what Sorry, I just had a realization Us seeing his dad gives an idea to how trash he is.
Speaker 1:It's almost as if his dad is like a worse version of Yuki, to where it's like, yeah, this is what you can look forward to when you're older Well, I would say that but like if he lived a normal life after this. But he didn't. But yeah, it's like that. His dad was like the how can I put this? It's like the culmination of Yuki's worst traits, to where he's like the kind of coward that like bails when things get tough and all that shit yes, that's so true.
Speaker 2:Like that's that's so true because he definitely yuki really could have been his dad. Like, maybe maybe there was a little bit more uh meat on that bone that they didn't really go like deep into. But I think that that's the insight they were trying to give us. And maybe, too, maybe, uh, yuki's mom was similar to you know, at some point. Maybe there was a lot of like, maybe that's why she likes, you know, she recognized a little bit of herself in her. You know, because it was a little weird to just be like, hey, bro, you smashed and like no, I'm just saying you didn't do it. Like for her to automatically go there and then also to go to a wife, which I know is kind of normal in their culture, right, like wanting them to get married very quickly and soon, but that was a little too fast. Like you don't even know her.
Speaker 2:You know, like I think she saw a little bit of their, of how her relationship was with her husband in this and was like, yeah, he needs somebody, just like her, because she's a lot like me. He doesn't know it yet, but she's crazy. Maybe she peaked the crazy, I don't know.
Speaker 1:I think maybe just like with you know to an extent. Uh, my mom mano was like I can't fix him yo, yeah that I can fix this.
Speaker 2:Hey, dang, I kind of wish we would have known what it would have been like for like them to grow up into a relationship, because I can see, uh, you know, at some point just being like you know what, I'm just gonna beat you with a frying pan, like I think, like her turn, I think she would have ended up turning into like uh, narcos, while the red hot habanero, like I think she would have turned in there like just I'm sick of you, I'm singing shit, okay, get your shit together and just losing her mind on him and her him finally getting an actual job instead of playing around. I could just see that. I could see that playing out completely and totally. I wish we would have gotten that that's crazy.
Speaker 1:It's like you know, it's like when y'all go up to their family and it's like you can tell who wears their pants in a relationship oh, facts oh, it's like imagine, like, imagine, um, traditional, like, okay, just take a mental picture, like imagine like they do it, japanese style to where, like you're going through the house and or you're leaving their house and they're like standing next to each other and it's like, look, all pleasant shit, we're both gonna have smiles on her face, and what you don't know is that you can't really see it, but it's like, you knows, like aggressively ripping one along, you want to, um, use these butt cheeks just so aggressively like super aggressively gripping that butt cheek oh my god, not butt cheek, we could see, oh, even better, even better, uh, she'll be.
Speaker 1:She'll be like that one episode fan guy with lois um when she was taking up martial arts. And then Imagine being a woman and you just roll up to you be like You're not even interested in him, like that, you're just trying to be pleasant and whatnot. And next you know she's like Kissing him like really aggressively. Then next you know he's grabbing his dick and he's like this is mine, this aggressively. Then next thing you know he's grabbing his dick. It's like this is mine, this is where my future babies come from.
Speaker 2:Listen, I could actually see you not doing that Like no lie, that's, you know, all day, especially if it's a woman threatening her position. Oh yeah, she, finna, let you know that. That's not Like all day, every day, every day that you now belong there, I feel that is the only time I think I would ever feel sorry, for yuki is in that particular situation. I'd be like, yeah, that was a little bit too much. You know you didn't have to do that, but other than that, like you know, I feel like she had every right.
Speaker 1:Yeah truth be told, I would have said that and this is crazy, this is going to be the crazy part for me I would have said that Yuki and Hinata, they probably would have made a better couple, even though there wasn't no chemistry like that. But hey, listen, first of all, she's like a tan tomboy and I'm like when I was younger I'm like, yeah, I'll probably be into that too, but you know me being older, no, I can't really say I'm, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2:Um, so what you're saying is you realize that you know what's the best choice?
Speaker 1:I'm glad no no, I'm just saying that uh in today's time is like, uh well, I can't really say that because let's just say I kind of wish there was more anime to where the characters were like in their 20s at the very least, so that way, uh see that one scene to where yuki accidentally pulled um, you know, to uh trousers down, all her pants down, and I'm sitting there like I mean a little fan service, I guess, for like the teenage audience. But when you're an adult, it's like I'm not supposed to like this because I'm a grown man and she's a teenager in this anime. So I'm like, ah, that feels like a trap to say that I appreciate that moment. I'm like you know what I mean. So, but even then, I'm like thinking like imagine you can hinata together, but because hinata is not as crazy as you know, but she's still the type of girl who will be able to take charge like see that right there already is like healthier, but the same dynamic I could see it.
Speaker 2:I could. I'm not gonna tell you that I don't see that working okay, but I like the extreme of Yuno, I do. I think, uh, honestly, I think that was more healthy for Yuki. I don't listen, okay, just Yuki, I don't Listen, okay, just hear me out. I don't think he could have actually handled anything less. He didn't get it. He truly was just. He was really truly. The only time we saw some spunk in him was when his dad came around and that was weird, yeah. So obviously he's got a lot of trauma. Obviously he's got a whole, a lot of things that he needs to work out. I don't think I think it would have ended up making Hinata into Yuna. I think it would have pushed her, making Hinata into Yuna, like. I think it would have pushed her to that level of like I'm trying to fix you. Why won't you be fixed?
Speaker 1:Well, yeah, that's the main thing is, like you gotta be willing to find within yourself that, okay, there are things that I need to work on, and that's kind of thing to where, like with yuki, like he just he, he didn't feel the need that he needed change, like, oh well, I'm not doing anything wrong, like that was his problem, was, like, it's not my fault, I'm not doing anything wrong. I'm like, bro, the fact that sometimes taking no action is worse than, uh, making a mistake, because, like, here's the one thing, like mistakes can be forgiven mistakes can be learned from yeah, mistakes can be learned from, but doing nothing is worse, because essentially you're just sitting on your ass and just let everybody else um solve your problems for you.
Speaker 1:You're just coming off like a big baby where it's like you just act like you can't do anything for yourself.
Speaker 2:So I have a question does a wookiee kind of remind you of like a little bit of an incel, like just a little bit?
Speaker 1:only if he had like this, like low-key, snide remarks about women, like you know, like, uh, how, like he kind of had these little remarks where it just sound like, oh well, um, women are all the same. Or maybe he had like this one remark about how, oh, it's always uh jocks against all the girls and you know like the kind of talked where he kind of defeating himself by talking like this. It feels more like that than yeah, but if anything, it's more like he's just more like this loner type, that, um, that's like socially awkward at best, like he's so used to uh being in his own little bubble that it's almost like he never had a moment in his life to where he had to be tough, like he had to like figure shit out on his own and whatnot, and it's the first time he got into deep shit. So it's like, uh, he's just not, he wasn't mentally prepared for um shit like this. So, yeah, um, shit like this so yeah, makes sense.
Speaker 1:You know that that makes sense uh, oh, I'll try to keep it going with, uh, this thing, and honestly, we're I'm almost done anyways. Uh, now, at this point they're going up against 11th. The mayor, uh, and a major bomb truth bomb drops an umbilical cord that was from Yuno's old excuse me, from her old orphanage, and the DNA matches to the third corpse, which means that the Yuno Gassai in the second universe is already dead. That means somebody killed the real unogatai, so to speak, and we're all wondering okay, so who's this person here?
Speaker 1:But let me just go ahead and burst that bubble to where, at this point, we should know that you know, play this game before, and she went into this universe to play the game again, and in order to do so, she not only had to make. Well, I guess what she did was she waited until she that you know, excuse me, let me try this again. Let me try this again. You know, prime waited until you know two already kept the parents in the cage and then, when her guard was down, you know, prime will kill you know two and then bury all three of them. So that's how that happened. So, yeah, so in a way, you could say that Yuna was willing to offer herself For this happy ending.
Speaker 1:I mean when you put it like that I mean Rick and Morty does it all the time.
Speaker 2:But Yuna was the originator. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1:But aside from that, it's basically Yuki and Yuno going up against 11th and 8th and while this was happening, 9th shows up to help once again, but she almost died.
Speaker 1:Well, like it seemed like she died, but what happened was deus um gave her half his power, you know, kind of like a deus ex machina for later on, where, eventually, when yuki thought he lost the game and Yuno was crowned the winner, but 9th ended up helping him have some of his powers and was able to fight off Yuno and what not, she was able to come and clutch later on. So, yeah, it was like all this shit going down to try to take down 11th, and once 11th and 8th was killed, that's when it came down to Yuki and Yuno being the only ones left. Like and can I just say I do like how Yuki kind of bossed up for a moment where, like he showed up at that little meeting with Yuno on his arm and all that, like give me a kiss, baby, I'm gotta stand on, bitch for a moment. I mean that was like kind of cool and kind of badass, up until you found out it was scripted by Yuno.
Speaker 1:Bro, Bro, I was, like bro, the most badass moment you had and you had the girl writing your lines. God damn it. I almost respect you for a second. Oh, you got it Five seconds.
Speaker 2:I was like yeah, and then no, no, no, no.
Speaker 1:No, I didn't grow any nuts today.
Speaker 2:But I will't know. Nah, I didn't grow any nuts today. But I will say this. I'm going to say what I thought, Because by this point I was not. I know what you're saying. I know you said like we should have known that. You know, had you know technically off or so? Right, you know, had you know technically off or so right, I was not. I still was kind of like feeding into the mystery. I was like, okay, but what if this was an alternate timeline, right, like, because that's what it is, it's technically an alternate timeline right, where that wasn't. Uh, you know that that was actually yuki and another woman and they had a kid. And she came in and was like sorry, I hate to tell you, but y'all gotta die what the hell okay, listen, all right, that's how my brain works.
Speaker 2:Okay, that's what I was like. I was like, dang, that'll be fired, because maybe that's what was happening and maybe that's why there's an umbilical cord. I was like, oh my god, it would make so much sense. But then also I was like alternate because, like my mind was racing watching. Every time I watch future dark, my mind starts racing. I started thinking of alternate things that could have happened, especially like when the bodies are are uncovered and there's three, and I'm like, and there's two skulls, I'm like, okay, at first it can't. In my mind, it's like, there's no way, that's her parents. Okay, that's not her parents. I think, since this is an alternate timeline, either she came back and killed, like the alternate timeline versions of yuki and you know, because they was living a happy life and she couldn't obtain that in her timeline. And now she's trying to make that happen in this one. But, like she wished, yuki was back to life, but as a younger version of himself. You know what I'm saying but she already done killed like the future version.
Speaker 1:I'm gonna shut up yeah, because I was like I was gonna say why would she kill any version of Yuki when her plan was to essentially live the rest of her life with yuki? If anything is more like it would make more sense if she kept um doing and doing a lot. In other words, this wasn't her um second playthrough like that's what it pretty much is where it's like she's on new game plus and but the thing is this isn't the first time she did new game plus. At this point she's just kind of doing it for fun, like that's just. That would be the even crazier part to. Where it's like this isn't even the first time she even restarted the game. It's like imagine if it was like his, her 10th time doing this shit and it's like, oh well, you know, I've seen it all. At this point it's like you're gonna do this and you're gonna do that. It's almost like she didn't even need a actual future diary to know the future, because she done it so many times, it got predictable I think.
Speaker 2:But that would have been kind of cool too, because that means that that's the possibility that maybe she technically did kill yuki in a future version because he was happy and she was mad that they was happy. You know, like nigga, you can't be happy without this version of me.
Speaker 1:I know you happy with another version okay, okay, to be fair, you're right, I'll give you that because, uh, here's the thing, uh, when we're talking about, oh, yeah, like, uh, you know it's like in love with on you kids, she'll never do anything on hurt him or anything like that. But then after crazy enough, after they had sex, they finally had sex and yuki's like trying to uh piece all this shit together, um, about what's going on now that, um, he knows that, oh, this is a, uh, you know, first bomb rodeo in this shit. Uh, d almost killed him with a fucking axe and I was like you're not supposed to know all of that, yuki, I'm gonna have to kill you now. I'm like I'm gonna have to restart this shit all over again because I'm like you know too much.
Speaker 2:Exactly now that you know too much. Um, now that you live the happy life, I need to kill you. Okay, like you have to die Because the happiness didn't come. That and that's the next level right Of someone who, like that's the next level of a horrible codependent relationship you found happiness outside of me. How dare you, I'll kill you, it's fine, it's fine. And, as you know and I admire that, how dare you, I'll kill you. It's fine, it's fine. And that's Yuno, and I heard that.
Speaker 1:It's kind of yeah, it's kind of crazy really thinking about like damn like they could have gone in like a whole crazy direction with this. But I guess in a way they were like kind of going in a sandbox um type thing, because it's like, okay, let's not get too crazy with it, otherwise, um, it's probably gonna be more plot holes.
Speaker 2:But I don't know, like I mean, who knows, you know, like I'm just, I'm just, I'm just here with my crazy theories and crazy mind, like wondering, like, how many times did? Do we really know for sure how many times she went through it right? How many times did it work out? We don't know.
Speaker 1:I'm just saying, you know my favorite I get yeah, I'm just saying you know, my favorite, I guess, yeah, uh, well, shit. At this point I already mentioned how Night came back to help Yuki, you know, and murmurs, since we found out that the murmur that was Uh by, you know. And Murmur, since we found out that the Murmur that was we were kind of following Was Murmur Prime and she Imprisoned Murmur 2, yuki's Universal Murmur. And I guess you could say, because plot convenience, murmur. And I guess you could say, because plot convenience, murmur 2 showed up to clarify that, yeah, deus was right to be suspicious of Murmur, where Murmur Prime was trying to help Uno Prime win the game. Because at this point, you know, let's keep in mind, when they come God, that means that Murmur now Serves whoever become God. So that's why Murmur sticks around With Yuki when he wins the game. So, yeah, I guess you could say they were Just there to try to celebrate the game.
Speaker 1:And, by the way, before I forget, ari come to find out that he was created by Deus in order to be an observer and kind of help gather information and progress the game further. But he gained genuine feelings for Yuki and he tried to prove that, as he is, he can have the capacity to love somebody, and that would be Yuki. And he ended up getting like an upgrade to the detective diary by, in that last minute of being like I don't know, be integrating on days almost like he was about to be snapped away, but I guess you can say up until everybody else getting killed off by yuki. Uh, you know, was our route, um, for trying to snitch on, uh, snitch on her from being part of another universe when he was finding out about this shit. And even though he was beheaded, I like how his headless body was on a mission to make sure that Yuki gets the message via phone that, oh yeah, yuno, is's not the you know that you've been falling around isn't even from this universe, she's from a previous universe where she already won and she's just here to start over again.
Speaker 1:And that's when, uh, you get back to that part where, okay, they had sex. And then Yuki was like hey, yo, I can't stop thinking about that Message Arugan showed me Like so what do you mean? That you already Won the game. And I was like you know too much.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and there's the whole fight and what not, but ultimately in the end, you know, realized that what she wanted was Selfish and Ultimately she just wanted To be happy with Yuki, but not in these terms and especially after seeing how, in the third world, you know, still Hold on to hope that Things, things gonna be all right, and come to find out that, uh, the events of trying to change what happened in the third world kind of triggered these events where the game never happens.
Speaker 1:And come to find out that Yuno's adopted parents Do care for Yuno and it kind of took her almost dying For them to realize that and Yuno just kind of had like some sort of revelation.
Speaker 1:It's like you know, let me just go ahead and end this and off myself and I just hope you live well and what not, and you can just end up becoming God and just did nothing but his powers and in the end, kind of what kosuka said he's always crying. I mean, I would say that the way they ended the anime would have been very impactful, especially when you see that old last entry and his diary changes and indicates that you know, somehow still alive. But the ova you could say that the ova is kind of like I gotta put this like uh, a little payoff, where it's like, oh well, you know they still need to have like a happy ending, in a sense, to where, like, oh, they um get back together and they go off to go, start getting together, and whatnot. So I feel like the OVA take away the lesson that Yuki should have learned from all this to where, like, uh, your actions have consequences or, in some cases, your inactions could be worse.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, um, yuki Yuki Yuki is a very good example of the things that of the ability to make decisions that people take for granted and I don't remember the OVA that much. I didn't get a chance to watch the OVA again, but I agree with you, there was. From what I remember, that was definitely what he should have taken away from it. He should have definitely realized that even your inactions have consequences and that your inaction also led to the person you care the most about not being here anymore or you not being able to be with them anymore. As we know, sort of the ending was weird the ending was weird.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I mean I guess you could say it was supposed to end it all bittersweet to where, on the one hand, he did win the game and all that, but like the fact that he lost his friends, his family, his girlfriend, all this mainly because, oh, he was bored with his life. So he asked his imaginary friend who turned out to not really be imaginary to make things more interesting for his life. So it's like you play stupid games, you win stupid prizes.
Speaker 2:I mean for sure, for sure, he definitely won some super brothers.
Speaker 1:It's like just imagine like you just roll up to him after he won all that. It's like so tell me, yuki, was it all worth it? I'm like no.
Speaker 2:I ain't gonna even lie to you. I hated Yuki. I did, if I'm gonna sum up my love-hate relationship, which I said, which is why this is one of my most favorite animes of all time, because I have such a love-hate relationship with this anime. I loved you know so much and I hated Yuki so much. I hated you so?
Speaker 2:much like this, this. I could not stand him as a character. I could not. Um, I didn't see a purpose for him a lot of times, even though he's like the driving force behind. You know, I think you're not wrong.
Speaker 2:The only only reason we watched this, it was Yuno. Yuno definitely kept me entertained, she kept me guessing on my toes. She just was the epitome of if you put your mind to something, you can achieve it, and it was inspiring. To be honest with you, yuki, on the other hand, hand, made me want to vomit. And he, he didn't know, he had zero gumption. He, he had it felt like he had zero self-esteem too, and that was also weird. But like, at the same time, it's like he thought he was badass when he wasn't. Like it was weird. Okay, like you, cool with your darts and all, but like after that, what you gonna do, yeah. So I just I wanted to say this energy comes towards the end because, yes, we know, like he wins, he does. I guess, if you can consider, it the right thing, but he's also the laziest god ever.
Speaker 2:He has all of this time and he's just like nah, I'll just continue waiting another 10, 20, maybe 30, 000 years, who knows what. And. And it's crazy because when we had, uh, when you know one, she's like I just I didn't mean for like him to like I didn't want to die, like I want to go back and get him again and he's just okay. This is my question was it? Was the ending supposed to be that he's content with just watching her live her life?
Speaker 1:uh, you're talking about with the ova yeah uh, actually, no, like he had little to nothing to do with the ova. Um, really, he only showed up, uh, right at the official ending, to where you know how he got that final message that you know somehow still alive. That's the only time he shows up and well, yeah, you could say that's the only time he shows up in the OVA outside of oh and the third world. Like yuki and yuno never met each other, he was, uh, yuki was still yuki in the third world, was still like chilling with that other girl that he was like hanging out with. So he didn't matter that much in this third world.
Speaker 1:So the whole point was that yuno, for some reason, keep having like these Deja vu memories, um, like, in other words, like, for some reason, like she can Kinda recall memories Of uh, yuno Prime and there was like this whole rigmarole, to a point when eventually she Remembers what happens and I guess you could say, with the help of everybody, you find Yuno of the third world finds the imprisoned first world Murmur and Murmur prime gives third world you know the memories of, you know prime, which was stored in a gem and, with that being said, essentially you know, became god of the third world Just to Go into the second world To be with Yuki.
Speaker 1:That's about it. In other words, yuno had the perfect chance To live a normal life, like have nothing to do with yuki, like she could have fell in love with some other dude, but she was like, nah, something don't feel right about this. Like why do I got feeling that I'm forgetting something, and essentially it was just, uh, force her to remember? Well, it's not even her memories to begin with. It's like a version of herself from the first world, I mean.
Speaker 2:I guess, I guess.
Speaker 1:If anything, it's more like wish fulfillment for people who feel like, oh well, um, they should deserve to be together. I'm like you can say that Because, let's be honest, they kind of deserve each other, even though, um, they kind of bring out the worth In each other. But the reason why I say they deserve each other because, let's be real, some people just need to be Pushed out of the dating market and and, uh, listen, like it's like saying like two assholes want to date each other. I'm like, hey, yo, that's just two less assholes in the dating market I mean, you know what, when you say it like that?
Speaker 1:like think about it, like I mean, I'm gonna be real, like say what you will, but I think some people who know better, who really know better, probably wouldn't entertain either one of them that's true, you know the type of people who, like either been to therapy or they just like, like have a healthier mindset.
Speaker 1:Uh, whether it's like man or woman, they wouldn't entertain either one of them, so they would probably look at it as oh well, as long as they stay a hell away from me with their toxic bullshit, like by all means date each other you know, two less assholes in the dating market you right you are absolutely, because that day yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, that's, that's the way I see it, like they deserve each other, but not in a way to where I'm like, oh well, they I mean I'm not gonna say they don't deserve to be happy, but like at the
Speaker 1:very least they need to like take accountability for their own actions and heal from their past. At the very least, like work on that first, and then, if y'all want to get together and by all means get together, because like I probably wouldn't entertain you if I was in that situation, but like hey, if y'all like each other and y'all want to date each other, then I'm like shit two less people to worry about that's true.
Speaker 1:As long as y'all don't kill each other, I'm cool I mean, you know, like in some real life relationships, like they be actually trying to sit to, where like it's like it's more so, believe it or not, it's more so the woman nowadays, because you be hearing some of these headlines where, like, um, they be murdering them in like the creative ways, like you be hearing like some shit to where like, oh yeah, I could tell you watch a lot of uh crime murder shows where, like, you know how to get away with murder and like, just come up with this creative way to, um, assassinate your husband or you ever saw Snap.
Speaker 1:Wait, what now?
Speaker 2:You ever seen the show Snap?
Speaker 1:Oh Snap, I heard of it, but I didn't sit down to watch any of the episodes. I just heard of it.
Speaker 2:I'm going to go ahead and let you know, jb, if the girl that you'd be like you know what? I think she the one, she, she sit there and be like yeah, one of my favorite shows is snap run run. Okay, I'm a I I at that point, I need you to let me know who she is. Uh, we need to put a tracker on you because when you go miss it, not if when you go miss it, okay, we gonna need to be able to find you.
Speaker 1:All right oh, you know what this reminds me, since we're pretty much done talking about um future dire at this point. By the way, if I were to put a rating on this, I want to say eight out of ten, because I felt like some of the characters they didn't get the development that they could have gotten and also the plot did get a little messy here and there, but for the most part I want to say it's like anime junk food, like yeah, it's junk food but it's delicious. So it's like it's like you don't mind it that much. Like the writing was kind of bad but at the same time it was not boring. Like I said in the beginning, it's like it's not a boring anime for sure. So it did it's job by entertaining us and I can appreciate that. This reminds me of this one movie that came out like two, three years ago. That was me to talk to you about, mj Pearl. I think it was like a sequel or a direct sequel from this movie X.
Speaker 2:I watched it.
Speaker 1:Bruh.
Speaker 2:I watched it. I watched it. I definitely close my eyes a lot because I'm a scaredy cat. I'm not like the huge, I'm not a huge horror person, so I definitely I wanted to watch it because it reminded me of the I love old timey kind of like historical based things and, oh you, not wrong you were.
Speaker 1:So my dad got me into westerns. Like sometimes we walk around the house and then he's watching some old western on the tv and like ever since then, it's like because I'm so used to him watching westerns, it's almost like that's why I like jango and chain as much as I do like for some reason, like it's a, it was a western, so I'm like I was like almost had that affinity for it. Anyways, yeah, like sometimes some of the old shit uh, just hits right.
Speaker 2:True, oh yeah, it was pretty bad.
Speaker 1:It's like a color theory type thing. It's like something about the texture of the show. That's like kind of doing it for me. Got a cozy vibe going on.
Speaker 2:Definitely, it definitely does, especially if you like a rifle man, probably the really truly only western that I was like. I enjoyed trying to have that same kind of the, the later episodes, I guess you could say kind of develops that same kind of textured color, you know.
Speaker 1:But uh, pearl is is definitely, you know yeah, like it's basically that one scene in particular that everybody let the meme on To where, like what did I do wrong? And I'm like you didn't do nothing? No, why are you leaving me? You're not doing the wrong thing. I thought you liked me.
Speaker 2:I'm not going to lie to you. I forgot who I was talking to about it Because I watched it and I was like I have to talk about this and I was like, yeah, that was that dude's fault, like that was all his fault. He could have been left. Yeah, death was his fault. I'm like yo. Not only that, but you could have just. You couldn't get your turn for her until you know she let you go why. You couldn't be like. You know what I like the crazy? He couldn't do it. He couldn't even do it.
Speaker 1:You just scared me, pearl. You said I'm just going to bounce now. And then she picked up that pitchfork and went to work on him.
Speaker 2:I'm scared of you. I ain't even do nothing yet. Did I kill my parents? I mean maybe.
Speaker 1:Jesus Christ, yet did I kill my parents, I mean maybe jesus christ?
Speaker 2:I told you my dad, he alive, kind of b.
Speaker 1:This is why I dare say it's very important to bet the people that you're interested in dating, because, like, trust me when I say that I had experienced, uh, catching feelings for girls that I didn't know that well, but then again I was trying to play as safely as possible, you know, like trying to get the norm a little bit, but then again I was kind of a bitch back then where I'm like I sucked at talking to people in general, so, like God forbid, I had to actually walk up to a girl and talk to her. But no, I'm getting better at that now. But uh, the main thing is that, oh, like you gotta ask the right questions and shit, because sometimes uh, asking the right questions will save you a lot of trouble as far as, like, is this person gonna kill me one day if I fuck them, like if I push the wrong buttons?
Speaker 2:not. Is this person gonna go ahead and kill me one day?
Speaker 1:you know that would be straight, but you're right but nah, because, no, listen all these headlines and shit to where I'm like once again, like, um, let's nowadays like trust me, if it happens, I think it would have been blown up like because, uh, you know, as men, we're not supposed to be putting our hands on women, right? So if we end up murdering our girl, like uh, yeah, like the news, it's definitely gonna blow up newsworthy. But, uh, even though it does the same thing, the reverse. The crazy part is how frequent it be. Uh, every now and then, like almost like god damn, like another woman just uh killed her um boyfriend over some bullshit. Like uh, damn, uh, I kind of you know what.
Speaker 1:I'll just send them some, some examples to y'all dms later on. Like I swear to god because, like I'm not gonna waste too much time trying to recollect all of them, but like I swear, like there's like headlines and news stories about how, um, some chick went to jail, uh killed her boyfriend or husband or some dumb shit, and I'm sitting there like yeah, see, that's the thing. Like I need to vet you out just to see if you can potentially try to do that to me, because, like bro, I don't want to end up getting involved with somebody who has the potential to do that, like straight up, like if I find out that oh, yeah, yeah, you have experience with guns, I'm going to be a little cautious with you. That just means that you probably have enough accuracy to actually kill me, if I step in correctly.
Speaker 2:I mean, what if you know? It's just because you?
Speaker 1:know, they grew up with a round gun but it also depends on how she grew up and whatnot. Like. In other words, uh, does she have any pre-existing mental conditions that I should be aware of? Like, does she have any uh history with men? That was really terrible. It doesn't even have to be a boyfriend or anything. It's more like a falling out with family or something.
Speaker 1:There's a whole bunch of elements and factors that you have to consider to where I'm like okay, I really need to study how you move, otherwise I could be getting myself in a situation I could avoid it.
Speaker 1:That's why, nowadays, for me, I would say well, I know, there's like some memes running on floating around saying oh, it shouldn't take you five, ten years to decide if that's the person you want to marry. Yeah, it shouldn't take that long. But at the same time, it's like sometimes you gotta take your time to like get to know them and shit. Like I would say, at least a solid year or two, you should have an idea of who you're dealing with or, depending on, depending on how fast you prefer to move like. That's why, with some people, like, it's kind of for the best to have a rotation, because if you're just talking like you're not really hurting anybody because, like, if you're single and you got a rotation, you just a rotation of people that you talk to because maybe you like them, maybe like them. It's like, okay, I don't see any harm in that.
Speaker 1:But once you do get in a relationship, I wouldn't recommend having a rotation per se, like don't be entertaining them actively you know, but, um, yeah, like sometimes you gotta like talk to them for like at least half a year, maybe a full year, to get a full idea of who they could be, because I'm just not a fan of jumping into a relationship with just anybody. See, that's another thing. Like a lot of people want to just push me into relationships where I'm like oh well, here's this nice girl. She's like fairly attractive, like she's into me, like like, oh, you should date her. I'm like, but I don't know her like that. I don't even know if I'm gonna like her long term. And even if you're like saying like, oh well, you know you don't have to like. And I'm like, oh, okay, like, listen, like I don't want to use women like that. To where, oh, I'm just trying to smash and see where it goes from there. To where I'm like, oh well, if the sex was good, then, okay, I'll just keep the relationship going as long as I possibly can.
Speaker 1:I don't have any real plans.
Speaker 1:Like hell, I'm not even that attached to the girl.
Speaker 1:It's more like I'm just in this relationship because I was practically told to be in this relationship and that's why I'm like, that's why I am the way that I am because I'm trying to avoid being like Yuki to where I'm like I want to have agency in my life, to a point to where I'm not just dating this woman just because people told me I should date her.
Speaker 1:I'm dating her because I have my own reason for dating her. I see a future with her. I see she's like a solid woman. I want my action to be my own action. I want my own life to be my own life, not because of everybody else keep telling me what to do, who to date, what kind of car I should drive, what kind of house I should drive, what kind of house I should um have and all this other different shit. No, like I kind of want to have my own mindset, like I'm my own person and therefore when I want to approach a girl I want to have my own reason for want to date her and I need to vet her out to see if she's gonna fit the future that I'm trying to see for myself.
Speaker 2:You know what I'm saying you've really thought about this, jv yeah, because I'm like I'll call that where.
Speaker 1:I'm like just, oh, just go with the wind and all that. I'm like, no, like you gotta like take your time to get to know people because, like I just said, like you could be dealing with someone, that who could potentially murder you if you don't um step correctly and like see, if you take your time to get to know himself, just jumping into a relationship, you could have avoided All that. Like just imagine if, like I, were To date this girl and I Know barely nothing about her. But uh, we did have like some Things in common. So I'm like, okay, we kind of Vibe together. But then I'm finding Out later on, like, uh, what If she's like part of a gang that like if I do her Dirty they come to kill me. So I'm like, oh shit. Like uh, it's either I gotta be her ride or die for real, or I need to figure out some creative way to get out of this relationship. But then again, if I vetted her properly, I wouldn't be in that situation in the first place you know you.
Speaker 2:You know you might want to start talking to somebody who's about accountability. I'm just saying you thought about it. It sounds like you know, you got a plan and all of that's accurate. You're supposed to do all of those things and I agree. I think five years is too long to know if you want to marry somebody Like. I hate when people are like, oh, we've been together 10 years.
Speaker 1:No like.
Speaker 1:I mean, that's a list. You've got both already. At the point where I'm like, yeah, no, we're just not into marriage. Like I know some folks that's like just not into marriage but they don't mind, like just like being together or co-parenting, it really depends. Like some folks they don't care for marriage but they don't mind having kids together and having a family together, so they're like co-parenting, so that's fine. And then there's some people who want to be in a relationship no marriage, no kids but they just want to just just you and I, against the world. I get that too, I respect that.
Speaker 1:But yeah, some folks just want to do their own thing and they just kind of don't want the rest of society in their face about how they should be moving. Because that's kind of crazy thing out here to where it's like everybody keeps trying, everybody keeps trying to tell you you should be yourself until you actually be yourself and you're just like, oh well, no, no, no, no, no, not like that More like this, and essentially just kind of projecting how they would move. And it kind of gets to a point where I start to realize that that's why I kind of don't pay too much attention to what a lot of people say it's good to take advice every now and then, but sometimes you got to lean on your own, like you got to think for yourself. That's what I meant. You gotta think for yourself, because otherwise, am I really being myself or am I just a byproduct of what I've been told to be? So, in other words, like, am I really my own person or I'm just a puppet for everybody else to be using and shit? So I don't want to be moving like, in other words, I don't want to be feeling like every move I make is like I'm a puppet on strings where, uh, I want to be able to move on my own accord and be who I want to be with for reasons of my own. Like, don't be trying to push me into a relationship with someone just because you think I might be, we might look good together, or don't try to push me into a relationship just because they like me but I'm not really feeling them. So, yeah, like I just need to respect how I prefer to do things like, in other words, how family friends they want to like push me into a relationship.
Speaker 1:I'm like, see, look here like I got no problem being in a relationship, but you gotta let it happen on its own, like in other words, stop trying to rush the timeline on these things. Just let me cook. Sometimes I gotta cook slowly, but just let me cook, and once we do then it might work out even better, because at least I took my time to get to know the girl versus crazy enough. Sometimes I'll shoot my shot with the girl. I get rejected. And then after the rejection, that's when I'm learning about all the red flags, because your reject me is not like, uh, she's ever gonna consider me anyway. So she kind of like keeps me around as a friend, but eventually I just stopped talking to her. But before that even happens, I keep finding out about these red flags and I'm like, yeah, you know what that L I took, looking like a lowercase L, because no longer even an L at that point, because now you know like.
Speaker 1:I mean, that's, that's the thing I thought about this. I would say that, but I still consider it an L because either way it's still a rejection, because, because, imagine this it's like, yeah, like she probably would have been bad for me, but it could still be considered an l because the mere fact that I didn't even get a chance to get up at bat, like I didn't even stand a chance anyways. So a rejection or rejection either way, but it's less of a loss when you realize they weren't that good for you anyways. How the word that you better?
Speaker 2:but, um, yeah, like so what you're telling me is that all you know really had to do was just reject Yuki and we would have had a completely different anime pretty much like wow, okay, then he would have saw that they were the red bloods, he would have been like, yeah, you know what I'm blood.
Speaker 1:I mean, think about it, like the fact that you know, walked up To him To see what he was about to do, like, hey yo, what are you up to? And then, essentially, she was Like saying, I want to be your wife One day, and I'm like Uh. And then, essentially, she was like Saying, like I want to be your wife one day, and I'm like Uh, like hold the fuck on, so you just gonna skip the talking stage, the boyfriend phase, the Engagement, like so you take one good Look at me and you just want to get married to me. I'm like Mmm, see, that's the thing. You take one good look at me and you just want to get married to me. I'm like, see, that's the thing. That's the main reason why I'll admit MJ, that's the main reason why I haven't had that much of an extensive relationship path.
Speaker 1:I mean, I dated, but my whole point being is that, uh, there were like a bunch of girls, like a whole bunch of girls that was like asked, uh, like pretty much claiming me as their boyfriend before we even had a full conversation, and I was like kind of surprised by that myself. But I'm like, uh, I was just vibing for the most part, so I just didn't pay much attention to it. But whole point being is that whenever I find out that there's this girl that I like and she's running around talking to the other classmates like oh yeah, I'm going to be a boyfriend, her future husband, her future baby daddy, and all that shit, I'm like whoa, hold on, like take me out to dinner first. Damn like moving way too fast and I'm like that's that just feel like a setup. So that's why I'm like I kind of get less interested when it seemed like they're jumping way far ahead and I'm sitting there like, uh, can we have like a good conversation first, because I don't even know you like that.
Speaker 2:You know what People do be skipping the conversation part. They just be wanting to jump all the way to the end and I'm like I don't. We don't even know if we're compatible at this point.
Speaker 1:Actually, that's what kind of pisses me off about people in general nowadays, to where they kind of want to take shortcuts into taking those to getting to know you. I cannot speak today, I'm sorry.
Speaker 1:Horoscopes yeah, I was just going to say that perfect example to where, like these Zodiac things, where, like, what pissed me off nowadays? Where, okay, at first, when it was like I guess it was like 10, 20 years ago where horoscopes people weren't that annoying about it, so it was like kind of interesting, but nowadays it pissed me off because whenever I come across people who's like really into horoscope, like really really into them, like crazy thing, is like what's it? Here's what it should tell you everything you need to know. When you barely talk to this person and then one day they just ask you, hey, when's your birthday?
Speaker 1:And you tell them and then, first of all, the fact that you knew what my sign was based on when my birthday was tells me that you've been paying attention to these horoscopes to a point where you can like pinpoint where on the calendar, that Colander that Sits on like say, for instance, if I Say like If you were Born in like late June, you most likely to be A Taurus, and then they just judge your character based off that Like say, for instance, I'll tell you this much, because it ain't like he's worth there anymore anyways. There was this one guy at my job and I guess you could say they were like talking amongst each other and they were like asking each other each other's birthdays and shit. And then this dude was talking about oh well, I can't stand a Virgo and I was sitting there like well, fuck you too.
Speaker 1:I mean, he wasn't really talking to me, but the mere fact is that, bro, you didn't even have like a real good conversation with me and you're saying like fuck all virgos. And I'm sitting there like, bro, you don't even know me, like that. How you gonna just assume I'm the kind of dude that you don't even want to fuck with, when you didn't barely even gave me a chance. Piss me off with that shit. Like how would you feel if I said, oh well, I can't fuck with no, uh, pisces or aquarius or whatnot, uh, they're always on drama queens and shit, and I'm like, oh, whoa, hold on. Like you didn't even spend enough time Like building them out or some shit.
Speaker 2:Like I forgot. Somebody said that to me. Something about I was because I'm an aquarius and I was like to be honest With you, bro, I don't even believe in none of that, like I don't. That's too complicated. Whenever people start Bringing that stuff up to me, I be like that doesn't make Any. It's like an over generalization of someone's personality and anybody can have that. Anybody can exhibit any of these traits at any point in time and I also bring up a.
Speaker 1:it's a different co-worker, but crazy enough, uh, it got so bad to a point where some of them started nicknaming him the Zodiac Killer, where essentially, this guy would be talking to some of the co-workers and then he would do the same thing, like ask for your birthday or like kind of figure out that you're a Virgo, even though or whatever sign you are, even though you already had this conversation before.
Speaker 1:It's pretty much like he's like repeating himself at this point when he's telling you the same shit, like he did it twice, like he did that to me twice, where, like it's almost like he was trying to like strike up a conversation but he was using horoscopes to do it, and I'm like he got one more time to bring up those same things and I'm gonna be like, uh, buddy, this is your third time telling me this. Is there something you really want to talk about? Because, no see, that's this kind of thing. Like they just want to assume your character based on knowing your star sign. And I'm like, what if I'm the total opposite of that sign? Like now, what are you going to do? I'm just saying like, I just think to an extent, I think horoscopes have made people socially and intellectually lazy. That's my two cents.
Speaker 2:I think so too. I mean that's a whole deep rabbit hole because it's like. I also think that's part of like social media and people trying to find themselves. Instead of like you're not wrong, all of it turns into a shortcut. People don't want to do the hard work to figure out who they are or what they like anymore. Like they just. They just scroll and be like oh, I like this, this sounds cool and like, but you don't even realize that 10 years from now, you're not gonna even think that's cool anymore. Like, you're not even gonna like that 10 years from now, but this is now a part of your personality and you've made it who you are. Oh my god bro.
Speaker 1:Just imagine like, uh see, that's the thing it's like sometimes, with certain hobbies and personality traits and whatnot. Sometimes you gotta ask yourself is this going to be cringe in about 20 years, when I'm like in my 40s or 50s and this is my personality and I'm sitting here like um, yeah, and that's the thing, because keep in mind that even to this day, like I swear to god, mj uh, sometimes I'll go, I'll be scrolling through facebook memories and be like, oh my god, I was so cringe back in the day like I thought I was really cooking with some of these posts. Yeah, because sometimes you think you want something when at the time, but then fast forward 10 years later and you're looking at yourself like bro, like I kind of want to slap myself on, go back in time to slap myself like bro, what the are you doing, man?
Speaker 2:man, I ain't gonna even lie to you, I don't have that many. I don't. I didn't post a lot because my parents used my parents were very old school so they used to always tell me especially like my dad would be, like you realize, all this stuff might last forever, right? Do you really want the thought that you have right now to be encapsulated forever on the internet? And I'd be like you know what? You're right, because the fact that I think Kool-Aid and pickles is the best snack ever while I still believe that to this day, I don't think everybody needed to know that I like pickles and Kool-Aid and that's all that.
Speaker 1:That's actually kind of good. Like people like in my neighborhood, yeah, like it really depends on where you at, but like actually I'm not against that Like, because, yeah, I know, especially with the fruit punch On Kool-Aid, putting it on there, yeah.
Speaker 2:So fire Okay. But I also realize now that some people Buy pickles and Kool-Aid. They actually Don't mean the pickles and Kool-Aid we be talking about.
Speaker 1:Yeah right.
Speaker 2:They mean like pickle juice and the drink.
Speaker 1:Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no. You take the actual dill pickle and you use the Kool-Aid powder and you kind of like a dip. You kind of like dip the pickle into the Kool-Aid mix and the sugar. Yeah, like those dip like. You kind of like dip the pickle into the kool-aid mix and like the sugar, yeah, like those dipsticks yeah but instead of instead of that stupid chalky stick, you just use the pickle and it was delicious.
Speaker 2:But that's why I said I'm glad it's not encapsulated, because I realized later on I met people who I would be like, yeah, I like pickles and kool, met people who I would be like, yeah, I like pickles and Kool-Aid. And they would be like, oh yeah, we drink pickles and Kool-Aid too. And I'm like that's not. That's not what I said.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we didn't say anything about drinking it.
Speaker 2:I mean, I'm not saying that it would taste bad, but that don't. Why would you make a whole entire like picture of of that to drink? No, no, absolutely not. So like. I can't even imagine if someone would have came up to me and be like I heard that you like pickles and kool-aid and that you like to drink. Like. If that would have ever happened, I would have been like where did you even hear that? Oh well, it was on your facebook, put from like on your facebook page from like 10, 12 years ago. What, what I just couldn't even imagine, so I didn't really post a lot.
Speaker 2:And also to the other thing too, is girls back in the day used to post them bang pictures, if you know exactly what I'm talking about yeah and I'm glad that I don't have one like I probably do somewhere on my own phone and somewhere in a cloud, but at least it's not on facebook. No judgment to people who have done those things. There's no judgment. I don't think I'm better than you, I'm just saying. I'm just glad that none of that stuff is out there for me, because I would be a little embarrassed. I can't imagine some of the stuff that I thought at that age being out there Like Twitter was not good for me. It's like so are you keeping up with hip-hop at all?
Speaker 1:I mean loosely, like every now and then.
Speaker 2:I mean, you know we're probably gonna end up talking about no nerdy talk, if y'all haven't already had nerdy talk, depending on what I remembered or forgot about.
Speaker 2:Um, but at screw face, he's like a hip hop reactor. He reacts to like new songs that come out and stuff. Um, they're pulling up his old tweets and he had to do a whole 30 minute video, being like. You know, I was like 18 when I said that I wasn't really thinking about it, didn't think about the context at the time and like some of this stuff was just typos because, I mean, we was T9 back in my day, so I don't think you have to explain all of this. No, ain't no way. Ain't no way. All because of like people digging back into like 2012. That's crazy, that's crazy, that's crazy.
Speaker 1:Right, yeah, that's why, at this point, you know what. It's just for the best. It's just you know, it's one thing, it's like memes and what not, but like, yeah, at this point, just lay low with the thoughts, like it's kind of either keep them to yourself or like you can kind of share them with some of your buddies and whatnot. But yeah, even I had to learn my lesson the hard way to where you know what. Uh, not everybody needs to know this, even if, like you're thinking, there's not a whole lot of people that saw at first. But what if you blow up and become a big deal and then people are like, for some reason, want to be weird and want to look through your whole Facebook or whatever platform you're using?
Speaker 1:That's why I'm kind of glad I don't use Twitter Like, even though with Facebook it's not like. Oh yeah, they can do it with Facebook. But let's be honest, even though I mainly use Facebook, it's more about Twitter, twitter and Instagram. So people are more likely to archive what you say on Twitter than Facebook, because people are know, now it's about this new platform and, who knows, maybe get to a point where Blue Sky might be the new Twitter. But yeah, mj, you got anything you want to add on to Beat your Diary Because it's late, I need to go to work in the morning and I'm going to go ahead and wrap it up.
Speaker 2:That is great. I don't have anything else to add. I also need to go to work in the morning.
Speaker 1:That's it All right. Well, I do thank you for being on the show with me. It's been great going Going ahead to finally Cover Peachy Diary, Because it's one of those anime that I've been wanting to cover for A while now. And, yeah, what can I say? It's one of those anime that I would actually recommend to people, just to see how they feel About this whole situation, because I swear this anime should be studied as far as understanding what a toxic codependent relationship is and dang in hindsight.
Speaker 2:I kind of wish I had.
Speaker 1:Callie on for this one. But yeah, but maybe I'll talk to her about it later. I don't know about Ashley doing nerdy therapy. Who knows, I'll ask her, I'll ask her, but yeah, that'll be it.
