[00:00:05] [SPEAKER_06]: The following is a GNC podcast production.
[00:00:32] [SPEAKER_06]: Welcome to Geek Addicts, a pop culture podcast.
[00:00:41] [SPEAKER_07]: Hello and welcome to Geek Addicts, the pop culture podcast.
[00:00:44] [SPEAKER_07]: We've talked about all things pop and all things culture.
[00:00:47] [SPEAKER_07]: My name is Matt, a carrier on my head.
[00:00:50] [SPEAKER_07]: This here in Bill, he's, you know, Walker, I'm a taxi now.
[00:00:55] [SPEAKER_07]: And what does the girl from the other side of the cell, Cindy? My wife.
[00:00:59] [SPEAKER_04]: How are you doing? My wife. My wife.
[00:01:04] [SPEAKER_06]: Man, it feels like it's been not too long since we last recorded.
[00:01:10] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah right. Well, it's been a little bit for Cindy.
[00:01:14] [SPEAKER_07]: True, that was like a year ago, I think.
[00:01:17] [SPEAKER_07]: Almost. It's coming up on it.
[00:01:19] [SPEAKER_07]: Maybe it was all like our pit that episode, I think.
[00:01:23] [SPEAKER_07]: And we're coming up on our year anniversary soon.
[00:01:27] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, we're almost at 50 episodes.
[00:01:30] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, we're getting there.
[00:01:33] [SPEAKER_07]: Very sure.
[00:01:34] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, it's been a bit.
[00:01:36] [SPEAKER_06]: I mean, Matt, we're just chatting with the crew playing some,
[00:01:41] [SPEAKER_06]: a fable over on the Superpot network.
[00:01:43] [SPEAKER_06]: So that was fun.
[00:01:44] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, well, I was playing a table. You were playing,
[00:01:46] [SPEAKER_07]: but Dr. Mario and Tetris.
[00:01:47] [SPEAKER_07]: I was playing a lot of things.
[00:01:51] [SPEAKER_07]: And then we had to track over there. He's playing on his game gear.
[00:01:55] [SPEAKER_07]: And we were finding out how video games are woke apparently.
[00:01:59] [SPEAKER_07]: Oh yeah, I was like, I don't know.
[00:02:01] [SPEAKER_07]: You'd like found this page or whatever where a bunch of people were determining whether or not you should play a game because it's too woke.
[00:02:08] [SPEAKER_07]: It was just...
[00:02:09] [SPEAKER_07]: That was pretty fucking entertaining less, something else.
[00:02:12] [SPEAKER_06]: Oh, it was entertaining because of how sad it was.
[00:02:15] [SPEAKER_06]: Oh, man.
[00:02:18] [SPEAKER_06]: But yeah, it's been a good less than 24 hours.
[00:02:28] [SPEAKER_06]: Anything new happened since then here?
[00:02:35] [SPEAKER_07]: Oh, yeah, I mentioned it on the last one now.
[00:02:38] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, dude, this street bad street.
[00:02:41] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, you were here, so you could probably play it in better detail.
[00:02:44] [SPEAKER_05]: It's just fun.
[00:02:47] [SPEAKER_05]: I looked at the window and I do not expect to see tires in the air.
[00:02:52] [SPEAKER_05]: And I immediately like, just ran barefoot.
[00:02:56] [SPEAKER_05]: I dove on the ground and like, I was helping the lady.
[00:03:01] [SPEAKER_05]: And it was...
[00:03:02] [SPEAKER_05]: Thankfully, she ended up only scrapes in a bruise.
[00:03:06] [SPEAKER_05]: Having a car on top of her. That's all she had, so thank God.
[00:03:10] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:03:12] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, it was not fun.
[00:03:13] [SPEAKER_05]: We have really bad stuff going on in the street all the time.
[00:03:19] [SPEAKER_06]: Well, one of our red jokes is we have our friend Mr. Carr who drives by every recording.
[00:03:25] [SPEAKER_07]: Yep, he's...
[00:03:26] [SPEAKER_05]: Oh, I know what Carr is talking about.
[00:03:27] [SPEAKER_07]: Be it on official? Why? It's pretty much any given car that happened to pass.
[00:03:32] [SPEAKER_05]: Oh, well, there is this one, Carr.
[00:03:33] [SPEAKER_05]: Like now, he lives right over there.
[00:03:37] [SPEAKER_07]: But that's our unofficial third co-host.
[00:03:39] [SPEAKER_07]: This is just whatever Carr happens to be going by in any given time.
[00:03:43] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, and you can tell they're always driving really fast.
[00:03:48] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, and you guys are right at the end of the street by a roundabout, which is just like, that's safe.
[00:03:54] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[00:03:54] [SPEAKER_05]: People use it like a hot wheels like, boom, wound up thing.
[00:04:00] [SPEAKER_05]: I got into a huge...
[00:04:02] [SPEAKER_05]: I meant the Ducksberry Sergeant of the Police, and we didn't make friends that day.
[00:04:09] [SPEAKER_05]: We didn't talk about the speeding, and...
[00:04:13] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[00:04:13] [SPEAKER_04]: Well, he sucks.
[00:04:19] [SPEAKER_06]: So, we're actually doing a...
[00:04:22] [SPEAKER_06]: Kind of a throwback topic. We haven't done movie review in...
[00:04:26] [SPEAKER_06]: I'm just a last movie where we did.
[00:04:27] [SPEAKER_07]: I want to say it was your name.
[00:04:30] [SPEAKER_06]: Your name?
[00:04:30] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I think that was...
[00:04:32] [SPEAKER_06]: Good.
[00:04:32] [SPEAKER_06]: That was good.
[00:04:35] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, that was a good bit of go.
[00:04:38] [SPEAKER_06]: So we wanted to do another movie, and this one was interesting.
[00:04:43] [SPEAKER_06]: It's when I had never heard of before.
[00:04:46] [SPEAKER_06]: So I think it'd be better if you guys described it initially.
[00:04:52] [SPEAKER_07]: Well, it's a very obscure series.
[00:04:56] [SPEAKER_07]: Obviously, this particular was a movie.
[00:05:00] [SPEAKER_07]: But it's based on a manga series that I believe I'd love in our 12 volumes.
[00:05:05] [SPEAKER_07]: And we only discovered it because we had gone to anime boss in six years ago.
[00:05:15] [SPEAKER_07]: Is that right?
[00:05:17] [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
[00:05:19] [SPEAKER_07]: And we were just browsing around the dealer's room and stuff.
[00:05:22] [SPEAKER_07]: And I think I had found some Pokemon manga or something like that.
[00:05:26] [SPEAKER_07]: And it was like, you know what?
[00:05:27] [SPEAKER_07]: I want to go and find a manga myself that doesn't have any sort of connection
[00:05:32] [SPEAKER_07]: to any of you nerds that I came here with.
[00:05:34] [SPEAKER_07]: And they tried to find something for me.
[00:05:37] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, it's...
[00:05:38] [SPEAKER_07]: So that was the one she found was the first volume of that.
[00:05:41] [SPEAKER_07]: What I believe was fairly new at the time.
[00:05:43] [SPEAKER_05]: I pretty much grabbed it.
[00:05:45] [SPEAKER_05]: Like the artwork is what drew me into it.
[00:05:51] [SPEAKER_05]: And they did a really good job keeping that type of art in the movie.
[00:05:59] [SPEAKER_05]: Sorry, I'm faster than that.
[00:06:01] [SPEAKER_07]: For sure.
[00:06:04] [SPEAKER_07]: But the basic idea of this story is it's like a medieval...
[00:06:09] [SPEAKER_07]: I don't know if a medieval's all right word.
[00:06:11] [SPEAKER_07]: But it's like a very old school kind of time period that it's set in.
[00:06:15] [SPEAKER_07]: And basically there's like this two camps, so to speak,
[00:06:20] [SPEAKER_07]: is the inside and the outside.
[00:06:22] [SPEAKER_07]: And the inside is all like the people who were, you know,
[00:06:25] [SPEAKER_07]: untouched by the curse.
[00:06:26] [SPEAKER_07]: And then the outsideers are all the curse ones.
[00:06:30] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, the curse ones.
[00:06:31] [SPEAKER_07]: They got like the black fur and that weird like animal,
[00:06:35] [SPEAKER_07]: like skull things going on.
[00:06:38] [SPEAKER_07]: They turned into trees.
[00:06:40] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah.
[00:06:42] [SPEAKER_07]: Which actually was like the one kind of minor spoiler thing for you,
[00:06:47] [SPEAKER_07]: because I don't know if you had read that far.
[00:06:50] [SPEAKER_04]: No, I didn't read the last few.
[00:06:52] [SPEAKER_04]: That's a meaning to that.
[00:06:55] [SPEAKER_07]: Part of my hope for doing this movie was that it would inspire you to read the rest of them.
[00:07:01] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, well, I'll get time.
[00:07:07] [SPEAKER_06]: I will say one great by head at the start was not the movie itself.
[00:07:12] [SPEAKER_06]: Just how Crunchyroll handled it.
[00:07:14] [SPEAKER_06]: They split into three parts, which I found really annoying.
[00:07:17] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, we did too.
[00:07:19] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I don't want a Crunchyroll does that.
[00:07:21] [SPEAKER_06]: It kills the pacing because it's like you'll be watching it.
[00:07:24] [SPEAKER_06]: And all since like credits and I'm like,
[00:07:26] [SPEAKER_06]: and I look at the time, it's like it's been 25 minutes.
[00:07:29] [SPEAKER_06]: I think what?
[00:07:31] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, it's really annoying that it does that.
[00:07:33] [SPEAKER_07]: I, I, I, Crunchyroll, it's weird because it doesn't with some movies and it doesn't do it with other movies.
[00:07:39] [SPEAKER_06]: It's a bit of a cog, yes, I'm a movie as well, which I'm still annoyed by is it kind of hurts the pacing of that movie as well?
[00:07:45] [SPEAKER_05]: I'm saying, yeah, it takes place after season three.
[00:07:49] [SPEAKER_05]: Oh, I love them, I've seen them live four.
[00:07:54] [SPEAKER_00]: That's a Cindy called it.
[00:08:01] [SPEAKER_05]: That's what I thought it was.
[00:08:05] [SPEAKER_07]: It takes a little bit to catch on with some of the names.
[00:08:10] [SPEAKER_07]: I've never done it on here that now.
[00:08:14] [SPEAKER_07]: Just picture coggy with a big old beard, carbon.
[00:08:19] [SPEAKER_07]: I'd rather not.
[00:08:23] [SPEAKER_06]: I'd rather not.
[00:08:25] [SPEAKER_07]: Oh, but yeah, so what were your first impressions of the movie?
[00:08:32] [SPEAKER_07]: It was very, yeah, because somebody would know background.
[00:08:34] [SPEAKER_06]: It was very pretty.
[00:08:37] [SPEAKER_06]: I thought the voice cast did a very good job like, who played the main character because I thought he,
[00:08:45] [SPEAKER_06]: The, the professor was his name teacher teacher teacher.
[00:08:51] [SPEAKER_07]: I, I looked it up earlier, but it's an act of it hasn't done like a ton of stuff.
[00:08:58] [SPEAKER_06]: He's done a few things every far along.
[00:09:01] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I really liked his performance.
[00:09:03] [SPEAKER_06]: I thought he handled that incredibly well.
[00:09:10] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I found the, the aesthetic like the animation was beautiful.
[00:09:17] [SPEAKER_06]: The acting was really good and I liked the designs.
[00:09:21] [SPEAKER_06]: I would admit without any prior knowledge.
[00:09:24] [SPEAKER_06]: It was a little hard to understand what was going on at first.
[00:09:27] [SPEAKER_07]: But yeah, they didn't do a very good job in the movie of like,
[00:09:32] [SPEAKER_07]: prepping you for like the situation.
[00:09:36] [SPEAKER_07]: Like what exactly was going on?
[00:09:38] [SPEAKER_06]: I feel like it's one of those movies, like just like from a casual observation that's really meant for people who are really big fans of the work.
[00:09:47] [SPEAKER_07]: Hmm.
[00:09:48] [SPEAKER_07]: Well, I did notice while while the credits were rolling that there was,
[00:09:55] [SPEAKER_07]: There were credits in the credits for Kickstarter supporters.
[00:10:00] [SPEAKER_07]: So my guess is that this wasn't backed by like a big company.
[00:10:04] [SPEAKER_07]: It was literally like a Kickstarter movie where a bunch of people would just put in a bunch of money because they wanted it to happen,
[00:10:10] [SPEAKER_07]: but you know, two deos weren't picking it up on their own.
[00:10:15] [SPEAKER_07]: Which I'm guessing is why it's so short.
[00:10:16] [SPEAKER_07]: I mean, it still looks fantastic like it.
[00:10:19] [SPEAKER_07]: Like it, it feels like a moving watercolor the whole time.
[00:10:24] [SPEAKER_06]: No, it really did like I like how like it constantly the animating this must have been like a lot of work because it's constantly animating like there's no like still frames or like kind of like work around.
[00:10:38] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, because even when everything is still like everything is still kind of moving.
[00:10:42] [SPEAKER_07]: It's going to be hard to describe without seeing it.
[00:10:44] [SPEAKER_05]: Well that's how it looks in the book too.
[00:10:49] [SPEAKER_05]: And that's what I meant by the art was close.
[00:10:53] [SPEAKER_05]: The only thing is at the beginning, I was about to get mad because there was color in the book is just talking white.
[00:11:01] [SPEAKER_05]: But excuse you.
[00:11:05] [SPEAKER_05]: So the way they did like the dark and light colors though, if you look really quick it always looks black and white or almost looks black white.
[00:11:15] [SPEAKER_05]: So I like how they did the contrast there.
[00:11:21] [SPEAKER_06]: It's also, there's not a lot of it's not a big character heavy story so you don't really have to like get acquainted with a ton of characters right off of that which is nice.
[00:11:32] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, it's pretty much just the two main characters and then like you have the one guy who's carrying around his own head which isn't explained at all in the movie.
[00:11:42] [SPEAKER_07]: That is explained in the manga.
[00:11:43] [SPEAKER_07]: It's the narrator from Kagi-Sama.
[00:11:49] [SPEAKER_07]: Don't forget that background.
[00:11:50] [SPEAKER_07]: Good old Osama.
[00:11:52] Yeah.
[00:11:53] [SPEAKER_07]: It'll be a little weasel.
[00:11:59] [SPEAKER_07]: So I have to imagine this being a little confusing for you.
[00:12:03] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I had no idea what was going on for most of it.
[00:12:08] [SPEAKER_06]: I have to ask how, like, how much of the manga does this adapt exactly?
[00:12:19] [SPEAKER_07]: It kind of takes like little bits and pieces from the whole thing but it kind of twists it.
[00:12:25] [SPEAKER_07]: It's not like a one to one kind of adaptation like even considering the fact that it's a considerably shorter movie compared to what you usually get for anime movies.
[00:12:38] [SPEAKER_07]: But even so like yeah, like you would expect it would cut stuff but stuff was also kind of rearranged a little bit and you know, a lot of like the big reveals from the manga just aren't in the movie at all.
[00:12:50] [SPEAKER_07]: It's kind of the movie kind of treats it like it's.
[00:12:56] [SPEAKER_07]: Like it's just kind of showing their relationship and I do appreciate that because that's one of the best things about this story.
[00:13:05] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I noticed that like it was very much focused on these two like any other characters that showed up other than like in some Claire were like baseless or like they didn't matter like there was the old man towards the end that kills himself.
[00:13:22] Yeah.
[00:13:23] [SPEAKER_06]: That was I was kind of confused there too.
[00:13:26] [SPEAKER_06]: I won't lie.
[00:13:28] [SPEAKER_07]: Was he?
[00:13:31] [SPEAKER_07]: No, I mean I think it is.
[00:13:32] [SPEAKER_07]: I'm pretty sure.
[00:13:34] [SPEAKER_07]: Well, Jerry Jewel. I'm pretty sure he was in there at one point.
[00:13:37] [SPEAKER_06]: Jerry Jewel is listed in the cast.
[00:13:41] [SPEAKER_07]: He's the hunter so I assume that guy.
[00:13:45] [SPEAKER_07]: Okay.
[00:13:46] [SPEAKER_07]: I couldn't remember if that was him or somebody else.
[00:13:50] [SPEAKER_07]: He's the only other people that are seen.
[00:13:53] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, well he first comes to the house to like offer them like to go to the inside but they.
[00:13:59] [SPEAKER_06]: Respectfully say no and then he finds him in the forest and he like tries to fight him and then just kills himself and I was like, okay.
[00:14:07] [SPEAKER_06]: That's that.
[00:14:09] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah.
[00:14:12] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, definitely.
[00:14:13] [SPEAKER_07]: And it's weird because the movie starts out like like the first scene there is kind of intense.
[00:14:19] [SPEAKER_07]: Of course just showing like
[00:14:21] [SPEAKER_07]: the show unlike the soldiers just shooting people down with arrows and it keeps having these like weird like flashing.
[00:14:29] [SPEAKER_07]: Like imagery scenes.
[00:14:32] [SPEAKER_07]: And then just shoot right to teach her like looking among your body is like he's looking for something.
[00:14:38] [SPEAKER_07]: But you don't know what.
[00:14:42] [SPEAKER_06]: There was also the one soldier that like is cursed and is slowly turning into one of those things.
[00:14:49] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:14:49] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, it was.
[00:14:53] [SPEAKER_07]: But it's.
[00:14:55] [SPEAKER_07]: I don't know the whole concept of the curse itself is very creepy because it's like give your.
[00:15:00] [SPEAKER_07]: It's implied in in the film that teacher is different because like the soldier like pretty much immediately turned and then over the course of the movie just come like completely lost his mind event turn to do a tree.
[00:15:16] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, that's what you don't see any sign of that happening to teacher even though it's pretty clear that he's been one longer.
[00:15:22] [SPEAKER_06]: He seems to have full autonomy over himself like at all times.
[00:15:27] Hmm.
[00:15:27] Yeah.
[00:15:28] [SPEAKER_05]: I don't like that they will you wouldn't know this but there is a lot more in the book about.
[00:15:37] [SPEAKER_05]: I guess.
[00:15:39] [SPEAKER_05]: Um about Shiva and where she came from and.
[00:15:45] [SPEAKER_05]: You know her importance and like there's a whole thing with her that I wish they had played on.
[00:15:51] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, as why I really wish this had just been a series.
[00:15:55] [SPEAKER_07]: I don't wouldn't have looked as good if it had been a series.
[00:15:57] [SPEAKER_07]: So like whether it was a Kickstarter or actually backed by a studio but.
[00:16:02] [SPEAKER_07]: It was just so many points in the story that we're just kind of leap frog over.
[00:16:09] [SPEAKER_06]: I did kind of notice that because like with with Shiva the entire time I was like.
[00:16:15] [SPEAKER_06]: You like her from the start but the whole time like what is her importance because they don't tell you at all.
[00:16:21] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm afraid she come from why she and I'll buy out.
[00:16:25] [SPEAKER_06]: And like she's just in a field and she gets found it's like okay.
[00:16:31] [SPEAKER_06]: Why it's like oh not gonna find out here.
[00:16:34] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, really.
[00:16:35] [SPEAKER_06]: You'd story about their relationship but we're not going to really get told anything.
[00:16:41] [SPEAKER_07]: Hmm.
[00:16:44] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, I was definitely a little disappointed that they didn't call too much attention to that part of it but.
[00:16:50] [SPEAKER_07]: I mean, I guess that's I guess the main point of the movie is just to show their relationship and how they kind of grow to rely on each other.
[00:17:02] [SPEAKER_06]: Then that that scene towards the end where they're he kind of like goes with all the other shadowy creatures and like they go into the hole and then.
[00:17:10] [SPEAKER_06]: She like takes water out of him. I was very confused. I'm not gonna lie.
[00:17:15] [SPEAKER_07]: I believe that that's supposed to be like symbolic of like his soul.
[00:17:20] [SPEAKER_07]: Like he was trying to like give her his soul to heal her of the curse.
[00:17:25] [SPEAKER_06]: Okay.
[00:17:27] [SPEAKER_06]: Oh yeah, because she's cursed too, right?
[00:17:32] [SPEAKER_07]: You know, you don't really see any evidence of it in the movie which is bizarre.
[00:17:36] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I'm assuming that's explained better in the manga.
[00:17:40] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, it goes way deeper into the end of it in the manga.
[00:17:44] [SPEAKER_07]: Like it actually like I would what I suggested this in the first place.
[00:17:51] [SPEAKER_07]: At first I thought it would be okay like as a standalone thing.
[00:17:56] [SPEAKER_07]: But like I'm also like watching this with with the knowledge of the manga itself.
[00:18:02] [SPEAKER_07]: So I'm I'm consciously filling in the blanks as I'm watching it and not really realizing.
[00:18:08] [SPEAKER_07]: Like how you must be reacting to a lot of this stuff.
[00:18:11] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, like that's like like overall the film was pretty it was a decent like film.
[00:18:18] [SPEAKER_06]: The biggest problem I had with it was it is not beginner friendly for people who don't really understand the manga.
[00:18:25] [SPEAKER_06]: It's based off of.
[00:18:28] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, because the whole time I was like, I don't know what's going on.
[00:18:34] [SPEAKER_07]: Well, I mean the plus side of it is it is short.
[00:18:37] [SPEAKER_07]: So you know, it's obviously a little too short to be honest.
[00:18:43] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, I go that especially.
[00:18:46] [SPEAKER_07]: It's good to have like another 20 minutes.
[00:18:49] [SPEAKER_06]: Especially seeing as they broke it up into three parts and it just made it feel even shorter.
[00:18:54] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, yeah, because even when you take taking as like what 26 minute episodes,
[00:19:00] [SPEAKER_07]: like at least a minute or two of that is credits at pretty one.
[00:19:04] [SPEAKER_07]: I think the credits in the last episode is longer.
[00:19:08] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, and they were I was expecting an after credit scene but there was none.
[00:19:12] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah.
[00:19:14] [SPEAKER_07]: But I mean overall like the general art direction and the way like we had some scenes where we'd see.
[00:19:22] [SPEAKER_07]: You know, like flowers or whatever else like seeing the color contrast between like the blacks and the whites and then half of like the random.
[00:19:28] [SPEAKER_07]: But it'll sploshes of color like I don't know, it just stood out to me in a very positive way.
[00:19:36] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, like to me like the best part of this was just the animation in general, like the film is beautifully crafted.
[00:19:43] [SPEAKER_06]: There isn't like a moment where like anything looks bad like everything is very.
[00:19:48] [SPEAKER_06]: I'm just pleasing to the eye. I think it's the best way to say it and.
[00:19:53] [SPEAKER_06]: The music.
[00:19:55] [SPEAKER_06]: Offlements that very well in the voice acting is excellent.
[00:19:59] [SPEAKER_06]: I just think this is like a good.
[00:20:01] [SPEAKER_06]: Hmm, I just think the story is something that you have to really have a connection to or else you really can't go and blind.
[00:20:08] [SPEAKER_06]: I think that's the main takeaway ahead watching this.
[00:20:12] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, which is honestly a really big.
[00:20:16] [SPEAKER_07]: A really big flaw because you want people to to watch it and say that was really good. I want to cook it to manga now.
[00:20:25] [SPEAKER_07]: You know, you don't want people to watch it be like, well, that was weird.
[00:20:27] [SPEAKER_07]: I didn't understand the single thing that happened. Fuck this movie, you know?
[00:20:30] [SPEAKER_05]: Well, that's one thing to about the manga is.
[00:20:35] [SPEAKER_05]: So you said earlier that like the art in the movie was constantly moving.
[00:20:45] [SPEAKER_05]: So the book is like that.
[00:20:47] [SPEAKER_05]: Every single page, it's, it says if you're like doing one of those little flip books, like there's a lot of pictures.
[00:20:58] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, yeah, like it looks like it's moving.
[00:21:01] [SPEAKER_05]: So you just read it.
[00:21:03] [SPEAKER_07]: There will be whole section of the manga where like there's no dialogue, it's just showing still images.
[00:21:08] [SPEAKER_05]: But you get it, you know, you get what's happening and it just sketches.
[00:21:14] [SPEAKER_05]: So I don't just, I think you should read it.
[00:21:19] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I added to the list of manga that I have to read is quite a few.
[00:21:24] [SPEAKER_07]: There are, um, they have of course after we had already bought all the books, they have released Deluxe versions.
[00:21:31] [SPEAKER_07]: We're at more volumes in one. So, you know, being an easier way for you to get them and they look pretty on a shelf.
[00:21:38] [SPEAKER_07]: You know, my new break comics look really nice.
[00:21:40] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, when I have a little more money, hopefully.
[00:21:44] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, I feel that.
[00:21:46] [SPEAKER_07]: But yeah, the music really reminded me of like spirited away almost like that kind of music.
[00:21:52] [SPEAKER_06]: I got a real gibberish feel from the entire thing to be honest.
[00:21:56] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I'm sure.
[00:21:59] [SPEAKER_06]: Like didn't quite have a lot of gibberish trademarks like we didn't have weird flying machines and there wasn't like.
[00:22:07] [SPEAKER_06]: Uh, these like hidden messages everywhere but it was very.
[00:22:10] [SPEAKER_06]: It was a visually pleasing film through and through visually an odd odd, odd, odd, odd, odd pleasing film.
[00:22:18] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, which is, which is rare these days.
[00:22:22] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, for sure.
[00:22:25] [SPEAKER_07]: Um, I don't kind of struggle in to have something that lads on to because there wasn't.
[00:22:31] [SPEAKER_07]: The story, the story was very much like character interactions like in either pancakes at one point and they cleaned up a house and they were happy.
[00:22:42] [SPEAKER_06]: Like, they were like happy for like a couple minutes and then like guy with head shows up and then.
[00:22:48] [SPEAKER_06]: Keep your goes through an existential crisis.
[00:22:51] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, Ian's in clear with an Irish accent shows up.
[00:22:54] [SPEAKER_06]: Um, I will say I like the scene where like she has this little like, lock it, emulate thing.
[00:23:01] [SPEAKER_06]: And she almost it up and he put her name in there and she puts them lower in there with it.
[00:23:06] [SPEAKER_06]: Like that was cute.
[00:23:08] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, um, other than that, like the the scene with when the night turns into the tree was very was the most, probably the most disturbing scene in the film.
[00:23:20] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, it's especially like rightly leading up to it when she just no flower, the flower field and she's looking around and she's seeing all the clothes on the trees.
[00:23:31] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, it's like shadowing.
[00:23:33] [SPEAKER_07]: It's when you kind of like started to put the pieces together like, oh, like that's what's happening to the cursed people.
[00:23:39] [SPEAKER_07]: And that also makes you, and it also makes you wonder like what was up with all the cursed people who were running around talking and like talking about souls and stuff like like one of those ones like where they coming from.
[00:23:53] [SPEAKER_05]: You know, actually they just kept a consciousness.
[00:23:57] [SPEAKER_05]: The other ones kind of like the guy, the soldier guy he, you could see him like losing his ability to make normal sentences and make sense.
[00:24:08] [SPEAKER_05]: But the other ones, even though they didn't know who they used to be, they had consciousness, you know.
[00:24:15] [SPEAKER_05]: So that's my mother must have kept them.
[00:24:21] [SPEAKER_07]: That was kind of creepy.
[00:24:22] [SPEAKER_07]: I'm not going to have a mother.
[00:24:25] [SPEAKER_06]: It was getting like final fantasy seven out of the children's lives with their little constant like mother.
[00:24:30] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, it was up with a weird fucking cursed whale that was just in the lake.
[00:24:36] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, that was the thing.
[00:24:39] [SPEAKER_06]: Another thing I thought was kind of this was more of like just me being like like let the hell hear a moment was like when he's looking through the houses, he's like, he's like, she's a stay in this open field.
[00:24:50] [SPEAKER_06]: Nothing bad will happen. I swear and I'm like, yeah, this never ends well like everything about that too.
[00:24:57] [SPEAKER_05]: I would think that too, as soon as you see, pretty field with flowers and trees.
[00:25:03] [SPEAKER_05]: That's death.
[00:25:03] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, it's leave a small child unattended behind while I do something else.
[00:25:09] [SPEAKER_07]: In the middle of an area in the middle of an area where it's known there's also what's the curse being there on.
[00:25:15] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I was like, okay, I'm like, when the night showed up, oh my yeah, that what you expect, but
[00:25:23] [SPEAKER_06]: It's good thing he turned to do a tree conveniently before anything could happen.
[00:25:27] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, right even though immediately after she's like, hey, I'm cursed by the way.
[00:25:32] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, which again, doesn't really have any explanation.
[00:25:40] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, kind of came out of nowhere.
[00:25:42] [SPEAKER_06]: Honestly.
[00:25:45] [SPEAKER_05]: I still liked it. Like I mostly feel that imagery.
[00:25:50] [SPEAKER_07]: I'll tell that was still a fun movie.
[00:25:53] [SPEAKER_07]: There's so many gaps that needed to be filled to make them movie make sense.
[00:26:01] [SPEAKER_06]: Hmm, like to me like the biggest hurdle with it is it's just hard to recommend people to watch it if they have no idea what it is.
[00:26:11] [SPEAKER_06]: Hmm, because they'll probably.
[00:26:14] [SPEAKER_05]: I'll go on.
[00:26:19] [SPEAKER_05]: Even because I didn't finish the last few of the manga, like,
[00:26:23] [SPEAKER_05]: I was still kind of confused, like, what's going on here.
[00:26:27] [SPEAKER_05]: So I feel like it's something that I'm going to have to go back and reread and finish,
[00:26:33] [SPEAKER_05]: And then rewatch it.
[00:26:36] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, for sure. Like maybe like if you do get around and getting them up, we end up covering it for the show.
[00:26:42] [SPEAKER_07]: We could.
[00:26:44] [SPEAKER_07]: We could rewatch the movie and kind of have that as like an extra bit.
[00:26:48] [SPEAKER_07]: What we're covering the manga.
[00:26:50] [SPEAKER_07]: Hmm.
[00:26:53] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, because that's honestly the only real downside is just the fact that you want to you want it.
[00:27:00] [SPEAKER_06]: You're interested, but it's like it just kind of like it kind of leaves you kind of hanging at the end too, where it's kind of like it just kind of ends and you're like, oh.
[00:27:10] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
[00:27:11] [SPEAKER_06]: There's really not a conclusion.
[00:27:14] [SPEAKER_06]: It's just kind of really just ends and then credits roll.
[00:27:20] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, there's a little bit of a bummer. I was I had a lot more hope what when I heard they were making a movie like I wanted it to be more.
[00:27:28] [SPEAKER_07]: I mean, I would have I would have taken you know, I have like a cut with like the visual aspect of it for a little bit more explanation for this story.
[00:27:42] I mean,
[00:27:43] [SPEAKER_07]: I mean, that's fair.
[00:27:45] [SPEAKER_05]: The art like I said that arts what made me grabbed it, you know what I mean? So what I mean, this don't get to cut the same like the same general art design just I think they should have made it many series.
[00:27:58] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, that was a good.
[00:28:01] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, because I think that's like I was reading online because I read a lot of reviews on it like my any list, my enemy list.
[00:28:09] [SPEAKER_06]: The general consensus I saw was everyone commenting that this should have been a series not a movie.
[00:28:15] [SPEAKER_06]: Mm-hmm. Probably people who read the manga.
[00:28:19] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, well, because I skipped all the reviews there were just like one out of one out of ten didn't get it or stuff like that because I was like that's not useful to anything.
[00:28:28] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, it's not going to start to be at all.
[00:28:32] [SPEAKER_07]: But there were there were certain,
[00:28:36] [SPEAKER_07]: certain like little details that I really liked.
[00:28:40] [SPEAKER_07]: Like you wouldn't miss it if you weren't really paying attention, but at one point when they're kind of living in the house together, you can tell that time is passing because you know, like kind of looking at them through the window and you can see the vines growing on like the outside of the window so
[00:28:58] [SPEAKER_07]: it's kind of like showing that passage of time. Like, oh, they weren't together for a while, but they don't like call it kind of attention to it.
[00:29:07] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I mean, like I said earlier like the besides the art like I did like all the characters, I thought they were very well written and like acted.
[00:29:18] [SPEAKER_06]: Mm-hmm. There's just not enough up about them to truly suck you in as they say.
[00:29:23] [SPEAKER_07]: Also, I believe the actress who played Shiva, that's the actress who plays power of all things.
[00:29:33] [SPEAKER_06]: Um, that's actually really funny.
[00:29:37] [SPEAKER_06]: Sarah, why didn't have I think? Is there an image?
[00:29:44] [SPEAKER_06]: She's a, she's Zenno and Dragon Ball Super.
[00:29:48] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, she's power. She's power in chainsome man.
[00:29:54] [SPEAKER_06]: Um, she's the main character in the Dragon Mage show and she's charming black clover.
[00:30:01] [SPEAKER_06]: Hmm.
[00:30:03] [SPEAKER_06]: So she's been around.
[00:30:06] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, I mean, the cast was good. Like they, there wasn't too many characters to cast in general, but the people they got were good like,
[00:30:14] Hmm.
[00:30:16] [SPEAKER_06]: I don't know, it's all, it's all a funnamation or a crunchy roll like standouts here.
[00:30:22] [SPEAKER_06]: Mm-hmm.
[00:30:24] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, my only complaint really is just that it's not a very, normally friendly film and it's a little too short.
[00:30:33] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, agreed.
[00:30:36] [SPEAKER_07]: Well, we've heard a little bit more to say about it.
[00:30:39] [SPEAKER_07]: Honestly, yeah.
[00:30:40] [SPEAKER_06]: That's, that's the sad part about it is there's just really not a whole lot that happens.
[00:30:45] [SPEAKER_06]: And it's mostly a visual spectacle of one and anything.
[00:30:48] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, and you can only talk about the visual aspect I've had so much without having examples.
[00:30:54] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, I didn't hire hopes, but I feel like the manga is more, you know, you could talk about it more because it's a lot more story in there.
[00:31:05] [SPEAKER_07]: Like it goes into like, um, in the manga goes into more like, who was raising her beforehand and they, you know, that becomes a plot point where she's waiting for.
[00:31:15] [SPEAKER_07]: For her aunt to come get her and.
[00:31:17] [SPEAKER_05]: And then they like go back later.
[00:31:21] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, you know what?
[00:31:23] [SPEAKER_05]: I'm going to be reading that for the next couple of nights.
[00:31:28] [SPEAKER_06]: Apparently there was an older series that I'm not sure got dubbed, but it's also only 10, it's also only 10 minutes long.
[00:31:37] [SPEAKER_06]: Oh, so, okay, it's like, it's been like this.
[00:31:41] [SPEAKER_06]: Well, an older movie, I should say.
[00:31:44] [SPEAKER_06]: By like 29, it was like, 29 teenagers, apparently.
[00:31:49] [SPEAKER_06]: I thought this one.
[00:31:51] [SPEAKER_06]: No, there's an older one. This one was done in 2022.
[00:31:58] [SPEAKER_07]: Oh, that's the ZAR.
[00:32:01] [SPEAKER_05]: What are you going to do? 10 minutes with that?
[00:32:03] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, like, if an hour and 15 wasn't enough, then what the hell are you going to do with 10 minutes?
[00:32:08] [SPEAKER_06]: What's funny is that the 10 minute one has a bunch of praise and like a lot of high reviews and then this one's a lot more mixed.
[00:32:14] [SPEAKER_06]: So that's the ZAR.
[00:32:16] [SPEAKER_06]: I guess it was a little bit of that.
[00:32:18] [SPEAKER_06]: Guess it was a highly effective 10 minutes.
[00:32:21] [SPEAKER_06]: I don't know.
[00:32:27] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, yeah.
[00:32:28] [SPEAKER_05]: You can watch that.
[00:32:29] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, follow the look and do it.
[00:32:31] [SPEAKER_07]: If it's even, if it's even dubbed,
[00:32:35] [SPEAKER_07]: Well, I think he said that it wasn't dubbed, it was only Japanese.
[00:32:40] [SPEAKER_05]: Well, I mean, 10 minutes.
[00:32:42] [SPEAKER_07]: Fair.
[00:32:45] [SPEAKER_05]: Has he watched ghost stories? Have you watched ghost stories?
[00:32:49] [SPEAKER_07]: I don't think so.
[00:32:50] [SPEAKER_05]: Oh, my god.
[00:32:52] [SPEAKER_07]: Really watched like the first couple episodes in the day.
[00:32:54] [SPEAKER_05]: But I want to watch the whole damn thing and then I'm going to go back and watch it with the subs because I want to know what the fuck they're really saying.
[00:33:05] [SPEAKER_05]: Because it's definitely not what they're actually saying.
[00:33:08] [SPEAKER_05]: It is not what's really happening. It can't be.
[00:33:11] [SPEAKER_05]: You've got to watch it.
[00:33:12] [SPEAKER_06]: It's like, um, awesome.
[00:33:14] [SPEAKER_06]: I got to read right all of the script because the stuff that they in the original Japanese would not make any sense of Japan.
[00:33:22] [SPEAKER_06]: I mean, in America.
[00:33:23] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah. Yeah. No, this is like they just.
[00:33:26] [SPEAKER_05]: They just went and fuck wild.
[00:33:28] [SPEAKER_07]: But my, my business understanding of how that dub went was that the people writing it were just seeing where we're just pushing it as far as they could, when he for somebody to push back and then just nobody ever push back.
[00:33:40] [SPEAKER_07]: It's so fun.
[00:33:42] [SPEAKER_06]: That's that's basically how I was among a guy was it's basically like I was focusing. It's just signed felt the anime because it's literally a show about nothing.
[00:33:50] [SPEAKER_06]: Um, starring five anime girls in high school.
[00:33:54] [SPEAKER_07]: My favorite thing was when like the, the dad was driving the kid down the road and whenever I'm one of the kids like stuck there had not the window because they were looking at something.
[00:34:08] [SPEAKER_00]: I got to get ahead.
[00:34:11] [SPEAKER_05]: I think it's funny because that's actually how I talked to my kids.
[00:34:18] [SPEAKER_06]: So I was expecting you to get more dark.
[00:34:20] [SPEAKER_07]: It's like, oh no.
[00:34:24] [SPEAKER_07]: Will it's like a whole bit where like a demon gets like trapped into their cat.
[00:34:27] [SPEAKER_07]: I think they're just like a fuck out of my cat.
[00:34:32] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, it's funny.
[00:34:34] [SPEAKER_07]: It's pretty great.
[00:34:35] [SPEAKER_07]: Apparently it's on crunchy roll.
[00:34:36] [SPEAKER_07]: I didn't think it was, but I guess it is.
[00:34:39] [SPEAKER_06]: I gotta go through crunchy roll and actually see what's in there because there's a ton of stuff that I didn't even realize is available.
[00:34:48] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, for sure.
[00:34:49] [SPEAKER_07]: But to be can't have thought, you know.
[00:34:52] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, right.
[00:34:54] [SPEAKER_07]: Well, you have the DVDs so you got something.
[00:34:59] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, we can have audio books for Apple. We can't just dream it.
[00:35:03] [SPEAKER_06]: Well, maybe we can't have original Feminoloc and Mr. either.
[00:35:07] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, why got that on my hard drive? So that's okay.
[00:35:10] [SPEAKER_06]: I have a possible bootleg. So.
[00:35:14] [SPEAKER_06]: To our right.
[00:35:16] [SPEAKER_05]: I'm going to bootleg movies.
[00:35:18] [SPEAKER_05]: First time I ever saw civil war.
[00:35:22] [SPEAKER_05]: You know, like the Avengers Marvel.
[00:35:25] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah. That I had no clue that it wasn't the real movie.
[00:35:30] [SPEAKER_05]: It was huge chunks missing.
[00:35:34] [SPEAKER_05]: After I actually watched it, I'm like, oh shit.
[00:35:37] [SPEAKER_05]: That was literally recorded in a theater too.
[00:35:40] [SPEAKER_05]: Yes, it was great.
[00:35:45] [SPEAKER_07]: Now I think that was how I watched Goblet of Fire the first time with one of those.
[00:35:50] [SPEAKER_07]: It was like there was a laptop in the movie because the people in the theater were laughing.
[00:35:56] [SPEAKER_07]: It's like, I'm going to approach and run and down the.
[00:35:58] [SPEAKER_07]: Oh, my God.
[00:36:00] [SPEAKER_06]: See, it would have been great. It was like super, dragonball super hero.
[00:36:04] [SPEAKER_06]: Like the scene with bull mousass, but we're like the entire theater. I was in everyone in the theater just went.
[00:36:13] [SPEAKER_06]: People were just over that. They were like, no.
[00:36:16] [SPEAKER_07]: Which is funny because when when I saw a brilliant theaters, the scene where she lied like stretches out her armor whenever everyone went.
[00:36:27] [SPEAKER_06]: I guess.
[00:36:28] [SPEAKER_06]: I guess bull mous to old now.
[00:36:31] [SPEAKER_06]: Or maybe it's just a bull mous to old.
[00:36:34] [SPEAKER_07]: They're both fierce to time.
[00:36:35] [SPEAKER_07]: Probably is just because of the ball.
[00:36:38] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, like, it's almost like 50 something now, I think.
[00:36:42] [SPEAKER_07]: Well, I mean physically she's like in our 30s because she keeps wishing to be younger.
[00:36:46] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, that's why Chee-Chee looks older than her net well,
[00:36:48] [SPEAKER_06]: but she's done the fact that Chee-Chee's age, like a truck hitter because she has the deal with Goku.
[00:36:54] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, that'll do it.
[00:36:57] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, they bomb was got Vegeta, but you know, Vegeta just kind of does his own thing and she's like, well, I got money so I can do whatever the fuck I want.
[00:37:03] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, but the Vegeta at least actually cares in his weird way.
[00:37:07] [SPEAKER_06]: Goku just like fucks off for days on end.
[00:37:11] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, like when we're reading the when we were reading super, like Vegeta was very like attentive to ballma, like throughout that whole hook of black Ark and the monster.
[00:37:19] [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:37:25] [SPEAKER_06]: Goku is weird. Like Vegeta cares he's just an asshole about a lot of things.
[00:37:31] [SPEAKER_06]: Goku is just fucking stupid and he just smuggs off.
[00:37:36] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, he cares but he just he cares about fighting more.
[00:37:41] [SPEAKER_07]: That's a manga I really want you to read Sunday because it's it's really fun.
[00:37:44] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, I'm going to I'm just saying like goku's got to have something going on because he let his like arch nemesis at the time raise his child.
[00:37:56] [SPEAKER_07]: So he was dead. He didn't really have a bunch of choice.
[00:38:00] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, but like you know, there's connections in that world he could have done something.
[00:38:09] [SPEAKER_07]: I think at that point he was just happy that his kid was training because before that his kid was a little bitch and he was like super bummed about it.
[00:38:17] [SPEAKER_02]: That's what I mean though, he's you're okay with it.
[00:38:22] [SPEAKER_02]: Okay with the big green man.
[00:38:25] [SPEAKER_02]: You know what?
[00:38:26] [SPEAKER_06]: Meanwhile, Chuchi's out there like where the fuck is my family?
[00:38:31] [SPEAKER_06]: Where's my four year old?
[00:38:33] [SPEAKER_05]: I think my husband's gone.
[00:38:36] [SPEAKER_06]: We never do find out what happens to Chuchi during my entire year.
[00:38:40] [SPEAKER_07]: She just disappears.
[00:38:42] [SPEAKER_07]: When the anime makes it seem like she just kind of hanged around the house, but that's she triggered sack.
[00:38:48] [SPEAKER_07]: Like based on her personality and shit, especially when it comes to go on, like I'm surprised there wasn't some taking shit.
[00:38:54] [SPEAKER_07]: Like he didn't just show up with a fucking machine gun at that pumping pickle of a l.m.
[00:38:59] [SPEAKER_06]: I mean, because she's done that before for a little less life.
[00:39:05] [SPEAKER_07]: I mean, while my head is counter, she could attract now.
[00:39:11] Yeah.
[00:39:12] [SPEAKER_06]: I don't know.
[00:39:13] [SPEAKER_06]: I love dragging ball, but my God.
[00:39:21] [SPEAKER_07]: I'll never say that that dragon ball is a perfectly written show because it certainly isn't.
[00:39:26] [SPEAKER_06]: But they even tell her or did she just like did they just leave her in the dark the whole time?
[00:39:31] [SPEAKER_07]: Well, there was a whole thing where like at least the anime where Rochi sent Krelon to go tell her and he just completely pushed out because he couldn't bring himself to tell her.
[00:39:42] [SPEAKER_07]: I mean, but you see the night and everything.
[00:39:44] [SPEAKER_06]: I mean, would you want to go to Chuchi or she's like that?
[00:39:50] [SPEAKER_07]: No, but then she she drives to Rochi's house.
[00:39:56] [SPEAKER_00]: What about the mo.
[00:39:57] [SPEAKER_00]: How did she drive to an island in the sand saga?
[00:40:08] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, there was that guy there.
[00:40:10] [SPEAKER_00]: That was going to say how did she drive to an island?
[00:40:13] [SPEAKER_00]: Well, I mean, they have hard cars.
[00:40:15] [SPEAKER_00]: All right. Yeah.
[00:40:20] [SPEAKER_00]: Driver's license episode.
[00:40:22] [SPEAKER_05]: Oh, I love that.
[00:40:25] [SPEAKER_07]: Where she's like, oh, we can't drive places.
[00:40:28] [SPEAKER_07]: I can't drive because I'm a woman or whatever.
[00:40:31] [SPEAKER_06]: She was weirdly selective of uncertain things.
[00:40:35] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
[00:40:36] [SPEAKER_06]: Meanwhile, I mean, I always think back to like Pokemon anime Gary Oak ten years old driving a fucking car like what?
[00:40:44] [SPEAKER_06]: Just completely overflowing with bitches.
[00:40:46] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, he's hair I'm that followed him around everywhere.
[00:40:52] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, weird.
[00:40:57] [SPEAKER_06]: Oh, I got anything else to add here.
[00:41:03] [SPEAKER_05]: Oh, yeah, thought that we were honestly I'm thinking about something else.
[00:41:06] [SPEAKER_07]: I'm just overall. I'm just kind of disappointed that that is not more beginner friendly.
[00:41:13] [SPEAKER_07]: I mean, I never expected it to cover the whole series because it's way too big a series to I mean, I like it to huge series.
[00:41:20] [SPEAKER_07]: It's a love of all items, but it's still way too much to cover in even like a two hour movie.
[00:41:27] [SPEAKER_07]: So I was always expecting there to be some stuff skipped around and mixed up, but like it is a little disappointing that somebody knew to this city.
[00:41:36] [SPEAKER_07]: I mean, I think that's a series can't watch it and you know understand what's going on.
[00:41:42] [SPEAKER_06]: I kind of wonder what this would be like if they like try to like American as a make a live action.
[00:41:49] [SPEAKER_07]: I know, I don't know because part of the draw of it is the art style and that wasn't translate in my action.
[00:41:59] [SPEAKER_03]: And I don't like real people.
[00:42:01] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to stick a live action.
[00:42:03] [SPEAKER_06]: See, I'm curious because there's there's a live action your name currently in production. That's um, well that one I can see working.
[00:42:11] [SPEAKER_05]: That's different. Yeah, that movie.
[00:42:15] [SPEAKER_05]: I just kind of weird as you want for that one.
[00:42:19] [SPEAKER_05]: What? That's what I kind of wish we had you on for that episode. Oh, it's emotional. You don't want me like that.
[00:42:25] [SPEAKER_06]: You guys have you guys watched his other movies yet or no, I haven't.
[00:42:31] [SPEAKER_06]: I highly recommend weathering with you. That is another.
[00:42:35] [SPEAKER_06]: Classic movie.
[00:42:38] [SPEAKER_07]: So, crunchy.
[00:42:41] [SPEAKER_06]: I don't think so because shout factory did the dub.
[00:42:46] [SPEAKER_06]: I actually looked into it.
[00:42:53] [SPEAKER_07]: Good job, your phone.
[00:42:59] [SPEAKER_06]: Let's see, weathering with you streaming.
[00:43:02] [SPEAKER_06]: Oh, it's on max, I think?
[00:43:07] [SPEAKER_06]: Oh, okay. That's good and we have that.
[00:43:11] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, it's apparently on max.
[00:43:14] [SPEAKER_06]: All right. That works.
[00:43:15] [SPEAKER_05]: Is it going to make me cry?
[00:43:20] [SPEAKER_06]: Awesome.
[00:43:20] [SPEAKER_06]: I'm going to say yes.
[00:43:23] [SPEAKER_06]: I will say it's ending is not nearly as happy as your name is is, but it's a good story.
[00:43:32] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, no. Okay.
[00:43:33] [SPEAKER_02]: All right. I'll watch you.
[00:43:37] [SPEAKER_06]: It depends on your, I don't want to spoil it because it's a massive spoiler, but it's the ending is interesting. That's all I'll say.
[00:43:45] [SPEAKER_06]: Okay. That and talking and the chill make cameos, which is really fun.
[00:43:51] [SPEAKER_07]: Oh, that's fun.
[00:43:56] [SPEAKER_07]: One more read.
[00:43:58] [SPEAKER_05]: One with the wiki twist ending with the deaf guy.
[00:44:02] [SPEAKER_07]: Oh, um,
[00:44:07] [SPEAKER_05]: don't for you.
[00:44:09] [SPEAKER_05]: Don't breathe. You got to watch that. It's got to be the ending.
[00:44:16] [SPEAKER_05]: Nothing that you wouldn't expect for the movie.
[00:44:19] [SPEAKER_05]: It's great.
[00:44:21] [SPEAKER_07]: I don't know if it's like, I don't know if you build new. Do you like spooky movies?
[00:44:27] [SPEAKER_07]: It depends on the movie.
[00:44:29] [SPEAKER_05]: It's more suspense, I'd say.
[00:44:32] [SPEAKER_05]: And then the end is just fucked.
[00:44:35] [SPEAKER_06]: Oh, so it's it's like perfect blue.
[00:44:38] [SPEAKER_06]: It's another anime movie. It's another anime movie. It's the whole movie is a mind fuck.
[00:44:42] [SPEAKER_05]: I like that kind of.
[00:44:45] [SPEAKER_06]: You might actually like perfect blue. Perfect blue is a classic. It's very dark. It's all say.
[00:44:53] [SPEAKER_05]: Hmm. Well, I like mine.
[00:44:55] [SPEAKER_06]: Have you ever seen the movie Black Swan?
[00:45:00] [SPEAKER_05]: Oh, my god. I think I did.
[00:45:02] [SPEAKER_06]: No. It's perfect blue is essentially Black Swan if it was an anime made years before Black Swan was a thing.
[00:45:08] [SPEAKER_05]: They're Black Swan come out in like 2013 or something.
[00:45:14] [SPEAKER_06]: It had it had meliconus and Natalie Portman in it. They were like dancers.
[00:45:21] [SPEAKER_05]: Interesting. Maybe it's something else.
[00:45:24] [SPEAKER_06]: It's a very dark movie as well. I'm very mind fucky.
[00:45:29] [SPEAKER_06]: All right.
[00:45:29] [SPEAKER_05]: I like that.
[00:45:31] [SPEAKER_06]: That's fair.
[00:45:33] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, we got 45 minutes at it.
[00:45:35] [SPEAKER_06]: That's not bad.
[00:45:38] [SPEAKER_07]: We've done worse before.
[00:45:41] [SPEAKER_07]: I think the young japan so bishore.
[00:45:45] [SPEAKER_05]: You know what? I think we should.
[00:45:47] [SPEAKER_05]: I'll reread it. You got to read it and then.
[00:45:52] [SPEAKER_05]: I'll read group and like, oh and watch the ten minute thing and then kind of go over all of it.
[00:45:59] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
[00:46:01] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
[00:46:01] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
[00:46:01] [SPEAKER_06]: I don't point down the line. No, be fun.
[00:46:04] [SPEAKER_07]: And the girl from the other side like the reading it like I said before like there's a lot of like a lot of mostly like art panels and stuff or just not a whole lot of dialogue.
[00:46:14] [SPEAKER_07]: So you tend to go through this series very quickly when you're taking in the pictures.
[00:46:20] [SPEAKER_05]: Although funny thing happened member. I was reading it and I read like three of them.
[00:46:28] [SPEAKER_05]: And then I said, I'm reading the other one backwards because I'm like, you know, backwards.
[00:46:34] [SPEAKER_05]: So I was reading it the front ways and I'm like, this makes no sense.
[00:46:39] [SPEAKER_06]: You got to trick your brain because you got to switch between normal and then Japanese style.
[00:46:44] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, it was weird.
[00:46:46] [SPEAKER_07]: What I'm lucky because I started like I.
[00:46:50] [SPEAKER_07]: Technically was only really reading Naruto but like I was reading my god way back to like middle school.
[00:46:56] [SPEAKER_07]: I already like train my brain to the only thing that really fucks me up is what I read like Scott Pilgrim.
[00:47:01] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, see that's the thing like when I'm like, I'll be reading manga and then I'll swatch out. I'll switch over to like American comics and you have to like trick your brain into like going back to the normal way.
[00:47:11] [SPEAKER_07]: Well, I mean, the basic style of how American comics and manga are a dinner are different enough where the visual medium itself is enough for me to be like, okay, I've read this way on this one, you know.
[00:47:25] [SPEAKER_06]: The funniest is like the older some old manga they flipped them. So like the old like, you know, Yasha for instance, like they read the normal way and it's like this is wrong and so many ways.
[00:47:36] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, send me I think you should read my manga in general.
[00:47:40] [SPEAKER_05]: Well, it's hard for me because like I always knew what manga was and when I was a kid I read American comics.
[00:47:48] [SPEAKER_05]: So getting into my guys and adult is very jarring anyway.
[00:47:53] [SPEAKER_05]: But I do, you know, I love the stories that they come up with and that's what got me into anime is like.
[00:48:03] [SPEAKER_05]: The stories are amazing. I never was able to look past our work before. Like, oh, it's cartooning, you know, but I like it now.
[00:48:13] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, yeah, I just have crushes.
[00:48:17] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, and it's just it's so much more accessible. Like volume one is just volume one there's no like, oh well this is best universe and this is this run.
[00:48:26] [SPEAKER_07]: It takes place in this universe and these characters are the same but these characters are different, but they also have different personalities in this one like it's just it's so confusing with American comics.
[00:48:36] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, that's for sure.
[00:48:40] [SPEAKER_07]: So if you're going to give a general reading for the movie, what would.
[00:48:46] [SPEAKER_07]: I think it's kind of hard because you kind of have to rate it on different levels with like visual presentation acting hundred story.
[00:48:55] [SPEAKER_06]: I think so on on my animal list, the rating system is it's one out of ten.
[00:49:03] [SPEAKER_06]: I believe I gave it a six which is me so far on on on on my animal list six is a fine rating.
[00:49:17] [SPEAKER_06]: So it's not bad, but it's not it's just it's so it's it's biggest downfall as it is extremely hard to recommend.
[00:49:26] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I think that's it's that's the unfortunate problem with trying to like watch it if you're clearly a new one.
[00:49:37] [SPEAKER_07]: I think it's a good idea.
[00:49:39] [SPEAKER_07]: It's hard for me to be objective because I know the actual story and I know like like I like I said I can unconsciously fill the blanks as I'm watching it so it's it's harder for me to be.
[00:49:52] [SPEAKER_07]: I'm not going to be objective about it.
[00:49:55] [SPEAKER_07]: But I'd say you're rating is probably fine because it because like visually like the arch dial, the animation itself acting it's all a solid 10 to 10 but this this story drags it down so much because just it leaves so much unexplained.
[00:50:13] [SPEAKER_07]: Yes kind of hard to follow.
[00:50:16] [SPEAKER_06]: Honestly, that was probably the biggest problem I had with it but I will say it's not the worst thing I've ever watched like I've watched much worse over the years.
[00:50:30] [SPEAKER_06]: And I did not all sleep which is a good sign because that's usually a that's that's why I can't finish bleach.
[00:50:38] [SPEAKER_06]: And I wasn't on my phone the entire time so that those are usually the three signs that it was at least watchable and a decent enough that it kept me interested.
[00:50:56] [SPEAKER_00]: It should be taken as a.
[00:51:00] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, we've found there a minute.
[00:51:03] [SPEAKER_07]: It should be taken as more of an act.
[00:51:07] [SPEAKER_07]: It should be taken more as like an extra thing to them like I get I guess not something you should really seek out and walk on a don't.
[00:51:18] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah other than that is beautiful.
[00:51:26] [SPEAKER_06]: There's no denying it's very pretty film.
[00:51:30] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, I love the contrast of colors like and I'll stop moving it really hit me.
[00:51:42] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, I think it's probably good.
[00:51:49] [SPEAKER_07]: Well, we're trying to have you on better topic next time.
[00:51:53] [SPEAKER_05]: I think we all kind of.
[00:51:56] [SPEAKER_05]: You know.
[00:51:58] [SPEAKER_05]: What?
[00:52:00] [SPEAKER_06]: Well, I think we came in with high hopes and then went.
[00:52:03] [SPEAKER_06]: We weren't really upset that we weren't really we're doing more sure what to think.
[00:52:08] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, for sure.
