[00:00:00] [SPEAKER_03]: Hey guys, this is Bill again. Just wanted to give another preface before this episode

[00:00:05] [SPEAKER_03]: This is actually another one of the Lost Pilot Episodes for Geek Addicts

[00:00:10] [SPEAKER_03]: This one is actually going to be covering I

[00:00:14] [SPEAKER_03]: believe we were talking about anime in this one, but

[00:00:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Just wanted to give a little preface once again these were recorded

[00:00:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Back in like early 2022 and the audio quality is a little rough

[00:00:26] [SPEAKER_03]: mostly due to the recording conditions and just

[00:00:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Just out of the situation at the time, but we still wanted to share them just because we find them kind of fascinating because they basically were the

[00:00:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Early form of what this podcast would eventually become but anyways guys let's head into this thing and enjoy the episode

[00:00:52] [SPEAKER_03]: The following is a GNC podcast production. Welcome to Geek Addicts, a pop culture podcast

[00:01:25] Geek Addicts

[00:01:30] [SPEAKER_03]: Alright Cindy

[00:01:31] [SPEAKER_00]: Why me first?

[00:01:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Why not?

[00:01:36] [SPEAKER_00]: Because you should be first. He's the guest

[00:01:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay, Bill

[00:01:44] [SPEAKER_03]: What are your top three anime?

[00:01:46] [SPEAKER_03]: Alright, it's my top three anime

[00:01:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Actually, you know what would actually probably better

[00:01:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Describe what's started with Cindy

[00:01:55] [SPEAKER_03]: I

[00:01:55] [SPEAKER_03]: Actually probably make more sense to explain like how we got into anime. Yeah, that's fair like a first time discussion

[00:02:02] [SPEAKER_03]: because

[00:02:04] [SPEAKER_03]: So like back in the day probably I want to say

[00:02:10] [SPEAKER_03]: 98 maybe

[00:02:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Depended I think I got into it a little bit later

[00:02:15] [SPEAKER_03]: I remember because well because I remember what happened was

[00:02:18] [SPEAKER_03]: My sister Alex and my wonderful co-host on the gaming collecting podcast

[00:02:23] [SPEAKER_03]: She was big Sailor Moon girl like all she'd watch is Sailor Moon and

[00:02:29] [SPEAKER_03]: If I wanted to play video games we had one TV

[00:02:31] [SPEAKER_03]: We had to share and because she always watched Sailor Moon on TUNAMI at the time because

[00:02:36] [SPEAKER_03]: Remember back when TUNAMI was a thing. Yeah, it is a thing again. It's still a thing. It's just um

[00:02:41] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, we were kids it was on around like like four to six

[00:02:43] [SPEAKER_03]: I think yeah like in the middle of like it was a crime time the night like right after the cartoons like

[00:02:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Right when you're supposed to be going to bed. Yeah back then but she'd watch her Sailor Moon and then Sailor Moon would always either be followed up by

[00:02:56] [SPEAKER_03]: There was always two things

[00:02:57] [SPEAKER_03]: It was either Dragon Ball Z

[00:03:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Or in my case the first anime I saw other than Sailor Moon

[00:03:04] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't count that one was Ronan Warriors. If anyone remembers that I don't even know what that is

[00:03:11] [SPEAKER_03]: It was it's also known as like samurai troopers

[00:03:13] [SPEAKER_03]: I believe in Japan but Ronan Warriors it was kind of like the male version of Sailor Moon in a way like it was like a bunch of like

[00:03:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Those a Santa. Oh, that's what I'm thinking of it all. In a set well they turned like these yeah

[00:03:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, basically it was like Power Rangers, but there's a giant white lion and they turn it like these like samurai guys

[00:03:36] [SPEAKER_03]: It's on Amazon Prime now actually so if you ever want to watch it but um

[00:03:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Remember being pretty good the the dub it was actually pretty good for the time. It wasn't like amazing like this was

[00:03:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Before Funimation really like figured out there. Yeah self, but they were it was solid enough

[00:03:53] [SPEAKER_03]: I think it was I want to say it was I

[00:03:56] [SPEAKER_03]: Don't think it was a TV

[00:03:58] [SPEAKER_03]: It might have been whoever was doing Sailor Moon at the time like Lover Way or something

[00:04:02] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know me Funimation is just kind of taking the world by storm so this point

[00:04:05] [SPEAKER_03]: It's not if it's not Funimation or biz I have no idea you're talking about well back in the early days a lot of them were

[00:04:11] [SPEAKER_03]: Because this was before the Texas dubbing scene really came up

[00:04:13] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean the New York scene was still around at this point like four kids was probably the biggest dubbing name

[00:04:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah

[00:04:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Ocean up in Canada yeah, it was California was I mean California was around to but this was before like the Texas dubbing

[00:04:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Seen really took off because I guess it was just adb then

[00:04:32] [SPEAKER_03]: But yeah, that's how I discovered anime so I guess if we're gonna get into that my top three

[00:04:38] [SPEAKER_03]: Because I've I've kind of like changed my thoughts over the years

[00:04:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Biggie new yasha fan. I've always been a huge any ash fan ever since I first discovered it. I think it was

[00:04:50] [SPEAKER_03]: 2001 came out over here. I

[00:04:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Honestly couldn't tell you because I mean I might have caught like a little bit here and there on to Nami

[00:04:57] [SPEAKER_03]: But I really didn't watch it watch it until I was yeah

[00:05:00] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, she was kind of like the beat here like it wasn't like one of the top like it wasn't like the

[00:05:05] [SPEAKER_03]: Because I whenever I think anime

[00:05:06] [SPEAKER_03]: I always think there's like always errors like there was the Dragon Ball era where that was like the top of the line

[00:05:11] [SPEAKER_03]: Then there was the yeah, no error. Well, I wouldn't even just call that the Naruto

[00:05:14] [SPEAKER_03]: I'd say that was the big three era which was true Naruto one piece of bleach

[00:05:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah bleach bleach bleach came and went but it hit hard when I was here

[00:05:24] [SPEAKER_03]: And then nowadays we have like the my hero academic my hero academia era which I stopped and gotten around a lot of either Alex loves it

[00:05:31] [SPEAKER_03]: But yeah, so it you know yasha is probably my top. That's like been my like favorite forever

[00:05:36] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm a big I'm very into a slice of life like rom-coms these days. So I'm like huge

[00:05:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Fruit baskets fan. I didn't watch I didn't see it back in like the original 2001 show

[00:05:48] [SPEAKER_03]: I caught the 2019 reboot, which is more faithful to the anime

[00:05:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Hmm. I mean more faithful to the original manga and it tells the complete story

[00:05:55] [SPEAKER_03]: And then my third kind of alternates right now. I'm on a kick of a show called a comey can't communicate which just started

[00:06:03] [SPEAKER_03]: What's that one about so it's like

[00:06:05] [SPEAKER_03]: It's basically like so it's about a girl with extreme social anxiety and the whole goal of the show is basically

[00:06:11] [SPEAKER_03]: Main characters trying to help her make friends and then slowly learn how to talk all right

[00:06:17] [SPEAKER_03]: That's interesting. It's very wholesome. That's all I'll say. I'm honestly I'm not even sure if I've really watched any slice of life anime

[00:06:25] [SPEAKER_03]: It's kind of is

[00:06:27] [SPEAKER_03]: I've never seen it, but I've always seen it around is double a part timer

[00:06:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Supposed to be a slice of life. I was that supposed to be more comedy

[00:06:33] [SPEAKER_03]: I've never actually seen it. So I'm not really sure I've heard good things about it

[00:06:37] [SPEAKER_03]: I just haven't checked that out yet. I mean like one of the earliest ones I ever saw was um

[00:06:43] [SPEAKER_03]: I was a Magadio which is a slice of life comedy, which is basically just

[00:06:47] [SPEAKER_03]: Bunch of high school girls and high school and weird shit. It's basically Seinfeld the anime because it's literally a show

[00:06:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Nothing. Oh, that's just high school girls. Huh?

[00:06:58] [SPEAKER_03]: Right well

[00:06:59] [SPEAKER_03]: How I got into anime

[00:07:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I could tell you this much at least it was it was definitely either Pokemon or Dragon Ball

[00:07:06] [SPEAKER_03]: I honestly don't know which one I discovered first. I want to say Pokemon

[00:07:10] [SPEAKER_03]: but

[00:07:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Actually, you know it would have had to be Pokemon because I got my I got my first game boy and my the first game

[00:07:18] [SPEAKER_03]: I got with it was Pokemon yellow and that was my fifth birthday

[00:07:22] [SPEAKER_03]: So I must have been Pokemon first because I would have already been watching it for a little while at that point

[00:07:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I was one of those weird kids who got into Digimon before Pokemon

[00:07:29] [SPEAKER_03]: I

[00:07:30] [SPEAKER_03]: Remember that?

[00:07:31] [SPEAKER_03]: I caught it here in there. I it just never really caught me so Digimon is weird because it's like we're a little off topic here, but um

[00:07:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Did you want is interesting because the actual like game

[00:07:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Based around it in my opinion is an is like completely inferior to like Pokemon

[00:07:47] [SPEAKER_03]: But the anime was always like ten times better in my opinion because it actually had like story arcs and like characters

[00:07:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, they continuously won on it wasn't just here's ash being ash again. Yeah, I get that I honestly I

[00:08:01] [SPEAKER_03]: didn't really get super into a

[00:08:04] [SPEAKER_03]: Digimon but I got really into Beyblades like the original Beyblades anime. I love that

[00:08:10] [SPEAKER_03]: I love the theme song for that show let a rip

[00:08:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, yeah, like dinning in and in and in and in a big guitar riff they got going on in that like

[00:08:17] [SPEAKER_03]: picking up speed lay at time gonna rip it up or whatever it is

[00:08:22] [SPEAKER_03]: You know what's funny is I actually uh I had

[00:08:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Because the the GBA game of that and had like a super like garbled

[00:08:31] [SPEAKER_03]: 64 32-bit version of fucking that song it actually plays the whole thing too, which is crazy. Yeah

[00:08:38] [SPEAKER_03]: It's really weird. That's a great game. I love that game. It's just Marvel madness. I still have it actually

[00:08:43] [SPEAKER_03]: I think I found it at um

[00:08:44] [SPEAKER_03]: Like a local video game pot shop type thing but anyways

[00:08:49] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, Pokemon was probably my first but

[00:08:53] [SPEAKER_03]: Obviously I was at an age where I didn't even know that it was anime at the time

[00:08:58] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, because that was just cartoons back then. Yeah Pokemon Yu-Gi-Oh Dragon Ball

[00:09:02] [SPEAKER_03]: It was all just cartoons to me

[00:09:03] [SPEAKER_03]: It was cartoons with a weird style that was different from like that was part of what caught me

[00:09:07] [SPEAKER_03]: That's how different it was from the kind of cartoons. I was watching like in terms of cartoons at the time

[00:09:11] [SPEAKER_03]: I for me it was like the DC animated universe

[00:09:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, which was big at the time well it

[00:09:16] [SPEAKER_03]: If any cartoons that weren't DC or Marvel related

[00:09:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Back then it was very distinct difference. Oh, yeah, you know the the forefinger era. Yeah

[00:09:31] [SPEAKER_03]: But anyways, so your anime story, yeah

[00:09:34] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean that's pretty much it. I must have just caught Pokemon on TV one day

[00:09:38] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't I don't know I don't think I heard about it from somebody else

[00:09:41] [SPEAKER_03]: I think it just happened to see it on Cartoon Network or something but yeah, oh, no, you know what?

[00:09:44] [SPEAKER_03]: It was probably kids WB

[00:09:46] [SPEAKER_03]: I miss kids WB. Yeah, I still remember like all the kids WB and Fox kids those were like the two the what?

[00:09:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Fox kids. Yeah, okay. I watched that a little bit

[00:09:56] [SPEAKER_03]: That was like I used to watch Captain Planet on

[00:09:59] [SPEAKER_03]: Was it was that was a planet or was that so Fox kids was where I would catch like Power Rangers every morning

[00:10:04] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay, and then I think Beyblade was a Beyblade was on it must have been Fox kids because I remember

[00:10:09] [SPEAKER_03]: Beyblades played on a different channel

[00:10:11] [SPEAKER_03]: Fox kids transitioned into the Fox box which then just became for kids TV. Yeah

[00:10:17] [SPEAKER_03]: for a long time so

[00:10:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, so my my top three animes our Dragon Ball which was I

[00:10:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Mean like I said before Pokemon came first but Dragon Ball was the one that really stuck with me

[00:10:32] [SPEAKER_03]: Did you see oji Dragon Ball first or did you see Dragon Ball Z?

[00:10:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Z it was people saw Z first

[00:10:37] [SPEAKER_03]: Well Z came out first over here and it was that way for a while sure like one of those like three people that caught the harmony gold

[00:10:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Dub yeah, which I was not one of no because that was like way back

[00:10:46] [SPEAKER_03]: Although when I'm pretty sure when Funimation was airing original Dragon Ball and Tuna

[00:10:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Me they did have that version of it when they got to back to the original the first episodes of it

[00:10:57] [SPEAKER_03]: Cuz I don't think they actually went back and dubbed those episodes

[00:11:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Until they came out the blue. Yeah, the blue boxes. Yeah, so

[00:11:07] [SPEAKER_03]: So I probably didn't catch it because I remember certain scenes from the ocean dub in the first like 60 something episodes of Z and

[00:11:16] [SPEAKER_03]: I remember this one thing specifically was when Goku would use would say come a how may I and it was clearly not a coming

[00:11:22] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm a how yeah, like I think he did something similar with that with a K. O. Ken

[00:11:28] [SPEAKER_03]: What did I just say K. O. Ken? It's Kyle Ken. Yeah, see we're talking about tsunami era. That's why

[00:11:33] [SPEAKER_03]: but um

[00:11:35] [SPEAKER_03]: But to see with me with Dragon Ball Z

[00:11:37] [SPEAKER_03]: I always remember like you get up to the point right where

[00:11:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Goku lands on fake Namek and then it cuts back to rabbits coming to earth. Yep

[00:11:45] [SPEAKER_03]: No, we keep doing that

[00:11:47] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, I feel like I got kind of lucky with that because I feel like I got into it a little bit

[00:11:52] [SPEAKER_03]: After after fun or at least closer to the point where they would have started coming out with more episodes

[00:11:57] [SPEAKER_03]: Cuz do you remember the transition when funny first like took over and how rough the voices actually oh

[00:12:02] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah for sure. I actually I have um, I have a bunch of those VHS's and it's

[00:12:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, just they pretty bad

[00:12:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Z's specialties Sean Schummel. Oh, yeah, Z's been redubbed so many times by funny

[00:12:14] [SPEAKER_03]: Like there's like at least like two versions of the original

[00:12:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, he's only because I know the orange the orange bricks and the blu-rays have the current most recent

[00:12:24] [SPEAKER_03]: version of the I

[00:12:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Guess what you'd call the final dove. Yeah

[00:12:29] [SPEAKER_03]: for as the and they um

[00:12:32] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean if you think about like the bit that ocean did and then they went back and redubbed that later

[00:12:37] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, look it which is why it's it sounds really it used to sound like really weird because it would like sound if you were

[00:12:44] [SPEAKER_03]: Watching back then before they did the final like definitive dub

[00:12:48] [SPEAKER_03]: The early episodes would sound better and then you'd get to like where they first started to be like

[00:12:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Why right around when Goku landed on Namek?

[00:12:55] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, it's like it's like wow Sean Schummel's just trying to do Peter Clemes or whatever

[00:12:59] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, he sounds super like stiff to the whole time. I always love Peter Clemes just because he was it was surfer Goku

[00:13:05] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, and I think Peter Clemes is the one the Moscow X from a bridge

[00:13:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Based his voice off his Goku voice see the ocean dub is confusing because there was like three Goku voice actors

[00:13:16] [SPEAKER_03]: Because it was originally in James Corlew. I think yeah, I think we only got two of them though because we weren't getting the

[00:13:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, yeah, we weren't getting the ocean dub at the point where Kirby Morrow would have jumped in

[00:13:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, which is super weird to me as an inuyasha fan by the way

[00:13:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, oh, yeah, that's right. He was he was Marocco. Yeah, like when I think Kirby Morrow

[00:13:36] [SPEAKER_03]: RIP by the way

[00:13:38] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I always think it's Maroku. That's just like his it's like Richard Ian

[00:13:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Cox is always gonna be inuyasha to me

[00:13:45] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, actually that's one of the things because when you and I Cindy start watching more inuyasha

[00:13:49] [SPEAKER_03]: That's one of those things

[00:13:50] [SPEAKER_03]: The guy that we're talking about who played Goku and played Maroku in inuyasha

[00:13:54] [SPEAKER_03]: He was the guy towards the end of death note who was like super obsessed with Kira and was like

[00:14:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Like killing people for him and stuff at the end he likes death himself with the pan and stuff like that was that's the same guy who played

[00:14:09] [SPEAKER_03]: These guys that we're talking about. He also was in a lot of Barbie movies

[00:14:13] [SPEAKER_03]: That doesn't surprise actually, you know a lot of the people who in the death note dub were either in Barbie or my little pony

[00:14:18] [SPEAKER_03]: All of them

[00:14:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, it's not bad just to break off topic a little bit

[00:14:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Kelly shared in the voice of a song go in inuyasha. She was like Barbie for years really?

[00:14:29] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, and like all those old movies to weird to think of that kind of stuff

[00:14:32] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, I was wondered watching inuyasha because Alex would watch all the

[00:14:36] [SPEAKER_03]: The Barbie movies all the time and I'd always be like why does she sound like song go?

[00:14:41] [SPEAKER_03]: I didn't it didn't click with me at the time

[00:14:44] [SPEAKER_03]: I I got pretty good at picking out voices like that in cartoons when I was a kid

[00:14:48] [SPEAKER_03]: And I think part of that was because I was watching Dragon Ball and you haka show basically back to back

[00:14:53] [SPEAKER_03]: And there was a lot of carry over my favorite. Yeah

[00:14:56] [SPEAKER_03]: What's his name Bruce Armstrong? Mm-hmm everywhere in you. He's like every other character. Well, my favorite is like a bright time strong

[00:15:04] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm sorry right now. All right, B. My favorite is my favorite. You speak just speaking you haka show in Dragon Ball is a

[00:15:11] [SPEAKER_03]: Cynthia Kranz. She's a chi chi and then bowtie. Yep, and it's like they're such different characters

[00:15:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, incredibly stinked. Yeah

[00:15:21] [SPEAKER_03]: It's like when she does bowtie and she has like all more it's like almost sounds like it could be either a British accent or a

[00:15:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Southern accent. Yeah, like she can't decide

[00:15:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Yes, it's weird especially like when you watch a lot of funny dubs

[00:15:31] [SPEAKER_03]: And you just know you pick up on all those voice actors who are in everything. Yeah

[00:15:36] [SPEAKER_03]: But so what was your next choice?

[00:15:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, my next choice. That's right

[00:15:42] [SPEAKER_03]: I did cowboy bebop

[00:15:45] [SPEAKER_03]: And one of the reasons why I chose the ones I did was because

[00:15:48] [SPEAKER_03]: My wife Cindy

[00:15:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Her top three at least two of those would have been on my list and I didn't want to have a bunch of doubles

[00:15:55] [SPEAKER_03]: So that's why I chose a cowboy bebop for my second one

[00:16:00] [SPEAKER_03]: I think that one speaks for itself anyone who watches watches any anime at all has probably seen it

[00:16:04] [SPEAKER_03]: And I love it. Probably the definitive like dub of all time

[00:16:08] [SPEAKER_02]: I just don't consider it a real

[00:16:11] [SPEAKER_02]: Like when I think of anime or any show it's a show like

[00:16:15] [SPEAKER_02]: Like it like it's only that story. What do they call those short series that you know what I mean a

[00:16:22] [SPEAKER_02]: Mini-series. Yeah, like that's what I think of it as well. It's mini series. It's like the traditional

[00:16:26] [SPEAKER_03]: It's not like it's not like a long runner. It's like an anime a traditional anime like a 26 episode or yeah

[00:16:32] [SPEAKER_03]: It's not like a shonen or a

[00:16:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Show Joe or whatever. Yeah that goes on for long period. It's a it's a one-and-done base. Well, yeah

[00:16:41] [SPEAKER_03]: not really one and done more of a

[00:16:44] [SPEAKER_03]: It's a story that's here and it's finished

[00:16:47] [SPEAKER_02]: Cuz yeah, I mean yeah, cuz that means it's one of my favorites, but like I just don't consider it

[00:16:52] [SPEAKER_03]: It's not the city. It's not like a it's not like a series. It's an anthology

[00:16:55] [SPEAKER_03]: It's like Star Trek where it's you know each episode is its own story

[00:16:58] [SPEAKER_03]: And it starts and ends and then it goes on and next week. It's like never happened

[00:17:04] [SPEAKER_02]: Well, wait

[00:17:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, that's another one that we'll be talking about a lot

[00:17:11] [SPEAKER_03]: Bufs like that's like the red if you want to get someone into anime

[00:17:15] [SPEAKER_03]: It's like usually always recommend them cowboy be Bob. Yeah, cowboy be love is definitely a good starter one

[00:17:19] [SPEAKER_03]: And especially if somebody like sci-fi. Oh, yeah

[00:17:21] [SPEAKER_03]: There's a lot of sci-fi in there, but they don't like spend it a lot of it on like techno baple like Star Trek does

[00:17:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay

[00:17:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, and then also the smooth jazz

[00:17:38] [SPEAKER_02]: Yes. Oh, yeah, I love the music

[00:17:40] [SPEAKER_03]: The music in cowboy be Bob is one of the best things about it

[00:17:44] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, it's wonderful for them that that's a big a big thing with me is I can't get into an anime if it has a bad

[00:17:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Soundtrack. Yeah, that it is rough. It means to hit certain points for me

[00:17:55] [SPEAKER_03]: Like I can ignore a bad dub if like the soundtracks good like the soundtracks for everything on Cindy's

[00:18:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Top three is like

[00:18:03] [SPEAKER_03]: Way up there for me and part of the reason why I like them so much

[00:18:07] [SPEAKER_03]: Like sometimes an anime theme just sits with you forever. Oh, yeah

[00:18:11] [SPEAKER_03]: Like that, you know, I've been rocking out to the new attack on Titan beams on all the time

[00:18:14] [SPEAKER_03]: It's awesome like that on the Inuyasha ending thing that everyone always knows the one with Shoshoma staring at his dad's corpse

[00:18:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, that's like one of those very anime thing stuck in

[00:18:25] [SPEAKER_03]: It makes sense in context but well, yeah, actually even in context. Why is he there?

[00:18:30] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, I mean besides the point of Shoshoma's dad's corpse is like a temple, isn't it?

[00:18:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, it's in it's in the

[00:18:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Another world which I'm just questioning how he got well, I mean, I guess he has the through in a yasha's eye

[00:18:40] [SPEAKER_03]: the black pearl

[00:18:42] [SPEAKER_03]: So much reading reading the manga now that seems so much more graphic

[00:18:46] [SPEAKER_03]: Is this his eye just straight up is like bleeding the gold. Yeah, I guess that would make sense

[00:18:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Like it's like whoa, and then just magically healed after but it's one of those things is those like longer running shonen shows

[00:18:58] [SPEAKER_03]: There are usually a lot gore year not gore year, but like more hardcore in the manga

[00:19:04] [SPEAKER_03]: They are well Japan has much different standards than like America does especially now true

[00:19:09] [SPEAKER_03]: But I was reading I need to get a little sidetracked. I've been reading me in a yasha manga and it's like

[00:19:15] [SPEAKER_03]: It's amazing just how like Japan doesn't care about a lot of things that don't fly over here

[00:19:19] [SPEAKER_03]: Like there's you know, uh, mr. Excuse me, you know mistress Centipede in them in yasha

[00:19:25] [SPEAKER_03]: You know how she's like topless in the anime yeah in the manga. It's just straight up kitty

[00:19:31] [SPEAKER_03]: That's weird. It's like whoa, I was reading those like that's unexpected

[00:19:34] [SPEAKER_03]: That's really weird. Yeah, it is there's a lot of that in yasha like is this really there's a lot of fucked up crazy

[00:19:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Looking demons in any asha. Oh, but even like

[00:19:42] [SPEAKER_03]: It's good. It's fucked up when you consider Gomez 15

[00:19:45] [SPEAKER_03]: But you know the seamer she's bathing in a yasha like sneaks up on her and she sit boys him into the ground

[00:19:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, yeah in the manga just straight up kitty and I'm like whoa, that's I wasn't expecting that

[00:19:55] [SPEAKER_03]: But in Japan it's different. It's just normal well, especially at the time. Yeah, but I mean even like in manga

[00:20:03] [SPEAKER_03]: You just open it up and it's like oh

[00:20:05] [SPEAKER_03]: but it's not supposed to be sexual and also it's just kind of a

[00:20:09] [SPEAKER_03]: Just the thing that happens just for laps or whatever

[00:20:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Or laps are just art. I mean Toriyama style was definitely the more of like a you know

[00:20:17] [SPEAKER_03]: They do like the whole thing with like the girls and stuff

[00:20:20] [SPEAKER_03]: But like it was always specifically for a laugh

[00:20:22] [SPEAKER_03]: It was because master oh she was in the scene or because yamcha was in the scene and he's afraid of girls like yeah

[00:20:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Just funny how there was a purpose behind it like when he did it's just funny how unexpected it is

[00:20:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, I didn't expect that

[00:20:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah

[00:20:47] [SPEAKER_03]: So my number three pick is you Haka show because that's just a classic to me

[00:20:52] [SPEAKER_03]: It's the way whenever somebody asked me what it's about or what it's like

[00:20:57] [SPEAKER_03]: I usually just say it's like Dragon Ball, but better paste

[00:21:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Lots more blood and swearing and demons instead of aliens and that's pretty much

[00:21:05] [SPEAKER_03]: Pretty much the longest short of it. I always like to say that that was like when I watched it

[00:21:10] [SPEAKER_02]: What you Haka show? Oh, I only listened to half of what you were saying. Sorry. That's alright

[00:21:14] [SPEAKER_03]: But it's also like probably one of the first real definitive like amazing dubs

[00:21:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Funimation ever did oh, yeah, it was definitely dated. I mean all the club. Well, it's so 80s. It's not even funny

[00:21:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, it's like the show. It's so fun. I love it

[00:21:28] [SPEAKER_03]: I love the whole style that's that soundtrack is a lot of fucked up demons in that one

[00:21:32] [SPEAKER_03]: Dude when you get to the dark tournament

[00:21:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Just whenever it flashes to the stands just like pot take pause it look around because this is

[00:21:40] [SPEAKER_03]: There's some funny ass guys

[00:21:42] [SPEAKER_03]: But you know the whole story that you never pause anime right?

[00:21:46] [SPEAKER_03]: I

[00:21:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Mean I've definitely seen like memes and stuff like that

[00:21:50] [SPEAKER_03]: It's true though any if you ever pause anime it's always gonna be something fucked up

[00:21:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, I mean one of the big reasons why everyone had bad things to say about Dragon Ball Super when it came out

[00:21:59] [SPEAKER_03]: Was because people kept pausing it

[00:22:02] [SPEAKER_03]: And then they noticed that the in-between animations were not

[00:22:06] [SPEAKER_03]: Not up to par. I love like

[00:22:08] [SPEAKER_03]: When you have a character very far in the background and they just have like no detail to them at all

[00:22:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, like that's what going on my favorite like I'm watching a yasha email right now

[00:22:16] [SPEAKER_03]: And there's a point that when one episode where like the girls are like on a

[00:22:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Key lala in the background and it's literally like if you zoom in it's just like their faces

[00:22:25] [SPEAKER_03]: But they're not like there. It's just like two dots for eyes. Yeah

[00:22:29] [SPEAKER_03]: It is interesting. It's just funny looking

[00:22:32] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, I mean when you know and you also got to figure a lot of these shows like

[00:22:36] [SPEAKER_03]: When they were making them they had tube TVs in mind. Yeah, so like, you know

[00:22:41] [SPEAKER_03]: They weren't expecting these like super high-def TV. You can see all these details, you know. Oh, yeah

[00:22:47] [SPEAKER_03]: It's one of those things but it's a good show. It's like

[00:22:52] [SPEAKER_03]: You know, I was basically about this kid who gets hit by a car and dies

[00:22:55] [SPEAKER_03]: And then he has to go through an ordeal to get his life back, but then he basically becomes Jesus's bitch

[00:23:01] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh

[00:23:04] [SPEAKER_03]: Well basically in that show it's like it's essentially the son of God hires him as a spirit spirit detective

[00:23:10] [SPEAKER_03]: But really he blackmailed him into it because he said that if he didn't do it then he would just die again

[00:23:18] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean he found meaning in it, so it's all good

[00:23:22] [SPEAKER_03]: but

[00:23:24] [SPEAKER_03]: I really like the main character in that because I just loved like the wise cracking

[00:23:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Was that Justin gets first role or

[00:23:31] [SPEAKER_03]: One of his earliest

[00:23:33] [SPEAKER_03]: You know

[00:23:34] [SPEAKER_03]: It depends on whether he did the boo saga whether they did the boo saga before you hug a show came out

[00:23:40] [SPEAKER_03]: That's because he played super boom there. I

[00:23:44] [SPEAKER_03]: Didn't know that was his first and he plays raddits, but again, they didn't record that part until later

[00:23:48] [SPEAKER_03]: He is raddits. I always forget he's raddits. Yep. Well raddits is so forgettable

[00:23:52] [SPEAKER_03]: That's funny

[00:23:54] [SPEAKER_03]: The point where Toriyama forgot about him at one point. I was like oh, I didn't I don't know

[00:23:58] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know if you'd you know like he does like a whole lot of

[00:24:01] [SPEAKER_03]: What ifs and stuff yeah, he's like obsessed with raddits massive like what if raddits turned good

[00:24:06] [SPEAKER_03]: He like created his own like spin-off drag

[00:24:08] [SPEAKER_03]: He just wrote his own then Vic and it just kept going that he gets paid to write fanfics

[00:24:12] [SPEAKER_03]: That's what he does. Yeah, he's he later did make the work

[00:24:15] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm not the turn good. Yep, man

[00:24:17] [SPEAKER_03]: He does like whatever everybody turned good or what if Vegeta didn't turn good and he does a bunch of different ones

[00:24:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Or what if what if again?

[00:24:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Came with Goku. That's another one. Yeah, I don't know. It's weird. Well, it's not weird

[00:24:30] [SPEAKER_03]: He's got a lot of time on his hands. That's all I'll say well

[00:24:33] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean if you make him good money just thinking about what would happen in a show if something was different

[00:24:38] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean

[00:24:39] [SPEAKER_03]: even if I could get if I can pay get paid enough to buy a house and

[00:24:46] [SPEAKER_03]: You know

[00:24:47] [SPEAKER_03]: Pay all my bills and get all my food and everything else just talking about my favorite show

[00:24:52] [SPEAKER_03]: You bet your ass. That's a big but I've been doing like for sure

[00:24:59] [SPEAKER_00]: Like um

[00:25:00] [SPEAKER_03]: The guy I've told you about Cindy gicton one-on-one

[00:25:03] [SPEAKER_03]: He does like a bunch of like Dragon Ball discussion videos and like top like breaks down stuff about the show and

[00:25:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Knows like a wicked lot of stuff about it. He legit he started doing this

[00:25:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Like the YouTube thing just before the freezing movie came out and that would have been what 2015 I

[00:25:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Think resurrection f I want to say that I think it was 2015 because yeah, I want to go to God's was

[00:25:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, it was because super came out

[00:25:29] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I think super wasn't announced like three months later. Yeah, it's like something like that because I remember seeing it

[00:25:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, but uh, yeah, so he started right around then so it's been like seven years, I think and

[00:25:40] [SPEAKER_03]: He literally went from a point where like

[00:25:45] [SPEAKER_03]: he I

[00:25:46] [SPEAKER_03]: Mean he had a job, but he went through like a really hard patch. He's talked about it before

[00:25:50] [SPEAKER_03]: But he went from basically having nothing to having a really nice house in

[00:25:55] [SPEAKER_03]: Florida of all places like a populated area in Florida where it's not cheap to live

[00:26:01] [SPEAKER_03]: And like he has a house and all this

[00:26:05] [SPEAKER_03]: All this stuff that he he maintains off of his YouTube money and that's

[00:26:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Sometimes you get like as dedication

[00:26:13] [SPEAKER_03]: It's dedication especially with how messed up YouTube is now it is. Yeah, just like the algorithm shit. Yeah

[00:26:20] [SPEAKER_03]: So

[00:26:45] [SPEAKER_03]: And like send messages and stuff

[00:26:56] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh

[00:26:57] [SPEAKER_03]: Cindy's been coloring here and there as we go along

[00:27:00] [SPEAKER_03]: These two dorks just ramble on about anime. Yeah, well, we got to start this somewhere, right?

[00:27:07] [SPEAKER_03]: So Cindy

[00:27:11] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, how did you get into anime don't give me the don't pressure I'm not putting pressure on you um

[00:27:17] [SPEAKER_02]: Okay, so my

[00:27:21] [SPEAKER_02]: My

[00:27:23] [SPEAKER_02]: How did I get into that's what you want though, okay? I don't know when I was a kid

[00:27:28] [SPEAKER_02]: I didn't I was not normal. I did not have TV all the time

[00:27:32] [SPEAKER_02]: I didn't get to like I remember did you want and I remember sale of moon because I

[00:27:37] [SPEAKER_02]: Always wanted to continue to watch that like

[00:27:40] [SPEAKER_02]: Like I always remembered piccolo. Mm-hmm. Yeah, I don't know why but for some reason I did it's kind of harder for you

[00:27:45] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, but I remember like my brother's watching him and I wanted to watch those shows but I couldn't because we never had TV and

[00:27:53] [SPEAKER_02]: You know flash forward

[00:27:55] [SPEAKER_02]: million years and

[00:27:57] [SPEAKER_02]: He hitched up with you and

[00:27:59] [SPEAKER_02]: What was the first one death?

[00:28:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Brought over the DVDs because you had that little shitty

[00:28:05] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh my god. No, I don't like $20 DVD player that didn't have a remote for I was

[00:28:11] [SPEAKER_02]: All I could do is hit play so if it played all it played all thank God that DVD did that if not it was the same

[00:28:19] [SPEAKER_02]: And I only had like what like eight DVDs I was in a shitty place, but anyways, um you were watching good

[00:28:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, we got

[00:28:29] [SPEAKER_02]: We watched death note and I was totally into that

[00:28:32] [SPEAKER_02]: Because I kind of was like at that point in my life like oh enemies not what I I didn't think of it as what

[00:28:38] [SPEAKER_02]: The stereotypes is what I thought of yeah, we never thought that sailor moon was the same

[00:28:44] [SPEAKER_03]: For a reason

[00:28:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Some to some some people don't realize that

[00:28:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Anime wasn't always just a thing that existed in the world everywhere and was like socially normal

[00:28:56] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, now it is you go to freaking like

[00:29:00] [SPEAKER_03]: There's anime. Yeah, yeah

[00:29:03] [SPEAKER_02]: It was like I just thought it was a cartoon because it was on TV. I didn't know

[00:29:08] [SPEAKER_02]: You know so when you got me into that and so I'm teaching me the animes the stuff

[00:29:12] [SPEAKER_02]: I'm into and actually let me explore that world

[00:29:15] [SPEAKER_02]: It was that and then full brothers out

[00:29:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Metal Optimus brotherhood

[00:29:19] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't remember did we watch that one first or did we watch SAO first?

[00:29:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Because I feel like I remember like explaining the the concepts to both show

[00:29:30] [SPEAKER_02]: I think we watched the first like season of SAO

[00:29:34] [SPEAKER_02]: Then watched for metal okay, and then

[00:29:39] [SPEAKER_03]: We started going on well full metal is that one that like you want you start watching it if you get hooked you're hooked

[00:29:44] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, you can't break away once you start watching it. That's one of those I mean when I you should introduce me to it

[00:29:49] [SPEAKER_03]: I watched the first three episodes

[00:29:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, we watched the first three episodes and you stopped and said episode four swear everything goes to shit

[00:29:54] [SPEAKER_03]: And I was like it can't be that bad

[00:29:56] [SPEAKER_03]: Watching it. This isn't that bad and I got to the end. I was like

[00:30:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah

[00:30:02] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, it's not as bad I wish Matt was here but um because he's probably gonna be honest at some point

[00:30:08] [SPEAKER_03]: But he's the one who got me into full metal and he actually he got all the DVDs

[00:30:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Because I think he got like the first four seasons for Wicked Cheap and then he was waiting for the fifth one to come out

[00:30:19] [SPEAKER_03]: But he ended up loaning me his season sets and

[00:30:23] [SPEAKER_03]: I was drinking

[00:30:25] [SPEAKER_03]: over at my old place and I

[00:30:27] [SPEAKER_03]: Was I was pretty far in the bag and

[00:30:30] [SPEAKER_03]: He like took out the DVDs. It's like hey, let's start watching this

[00:30:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Like oh sure and I will we watch the first four episodes as we get to that fourth and I'm like I'm too fucking drunk for this

[00:30:37] [SPEAKER_03]: This is so sad

[00:30:39] [SPEAKER_03]: But it hooked me because that episode literally at first glance isn't that bad and then you get to the end

[00:30:45] [SPEAKER_03]: You think it's like a nice slice of life. Yeah, it's like nice and friendly and then it's like

[00:30:52] [SPEAKER_02]: Especially with the way that

[00:30:53] [SPEAKER_02]: The feeling of that show like I don't really have a favorite anime

[00:30:57] [SPEAKER_02]: It's these three that I'm saying are my favorites all together for different reasons. Yeah, like that one was because of that like intense

[00:31:05] [SPEAKER_02]: emotional like

[00:31:07] [SPEAKER_02]: And then all of a sudden a little comic relief and then that intense emotion again. Yeah death note was because it was like you

[00:31:14] [SPEAKER_02]: You had to like follow this like

[00:31:16] [SPEAKER_02]: Crime me and yeah exactly like it was a thinker like a psychological thriller really. Yeah

[00:31:21] [SPEAKER_02]: I was really and then of course the tag on Titan because

[00:31:25] [SPEAKER_02]: Like all of that stuff all of those points are in that show but also

[00:31:32] [SPEAKER_02]: Just the thing the quality of it the way it looks. Yeah, like the first time I saw a Titan

[00:31:40] [SPEAKER_03]: That was when you remember that that was actually a fear

[00:31:44] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm actually afraid of that kind of

[00:31:47] [SPEAKER_03]: I still haven't seen it. I'm waiting for it to be 100% done and then we're gonna binge it

[00:31:50] [SPEAKER_03]: You gotta if they don't skip any weeks you got eight weeks

[00:31:54] [SPEAKER_02]: As much as I hate the word that show is riveting as they say it really is like no it gets you and

[00:32:02] [SPEAKER_02]: Remember the last episode that came up. I'm gonna pee my pants. Let's not talk about that

[00:32:06] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, I'm saying oh obviously we can't go into detail

[00:32:08] [SPEAKER_02]: But you but the whole point I was trying to say is that like the feeling of all these show like that's

[00:32:14] [SPEAKER_02]: That's what's gotten me is like you open up that world that anime is there's so much to it

[00:32:19] [SPEAKER_02]: Now it's like I have faith in it like somebody could say hey watch this anime and I actually would because yeah, you know

[00:32:25] [SPEAKER_02]: I now I know it's not you know that there's lots of quality in there too. There's so many styles

[00:32:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, which is why I am very wary like for instance a certain specific friend of mine who I am very wary of when he recommends things to me

[00:32:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah

[00:32:43] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean I can always tell the you remember the piracy days, right? Oh, yeah the online piracy. Oh, you gotta be very careful. I certainly never

[00:32:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Never pirated anything

[00:32:55] [SPEAKER_03]: No, we just we just sailed the seven seas. Yes, exactly, but we're a trading corporation

[00:33:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, but that was actually one of my

[00:33:04] [SPEAKER_03]: That was how I discovered the wonderful medium of hentai

[00:33:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Because I was like, oh what's this? Oh my god

[00:33:12] [SPEAKER_03]: My 12 year old self was shocked

[00:33:17] [SPEAKER_02]: Whatever CJ said that there's hentai on Hulu. No, there's no I was gonna say

[00:33:22] [SPEAKER_02]: No, there's never or naturally one of them. I've never seen that

[00:33:26] [SPEAKER_03]: That's like a family streaming service. I mean, I know that I know that there's stuff that isn't for kids

[00:33:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, I know is like risqué stuff, but there's no straight up hentai. Yeah, no, I was gonna say that's why I said

[00:33:37] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't think you saw that you got a like special order

[00:33:41] [SPEAKER_03]: There's a lot of things that that I mean she's at an age where she doesn't really fully know everything

[00:33:47] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, is that a fish cat? What oh?

[00:33:50] [SPEAKER_02]: Yes, it is. I told you one came up to me that night

[00:33:53] [SPEAKER_02]: I was drinking outside by myself and it came directly at me. I was like sitting there

[00:34:00] [SPEAKER_03]: Dipped off like I don't think I've ever seen one just a straight daylight that they fucking run weird

[00:34:05] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, but he like there was no grace to that fish cat

[00:34:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Better than the chickens going at it

[00:34:11] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh Brad's not here lucky for him. No, he's always open about this little fish a cat

[00:34:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, Brad Brad's not gonna put up with nothing attacking his chickens

[00:34:19] [SPEAKER_02]: I think dude. There's a couple of those roosts that have

[00:34:23] [SPEAKER_02]: Under here is like completely fine, but it could be like frostbite. I guess but like I've never seen change your frostbite

[00:34:33] [SPEAKER_02]: I

[00:34:33] [SPEAKER_02]: Anyways, we're not even talking about chickens. I already

[00:34:42] [SPEAKER_03]: So yeah

[00:34:44] [SPEAKER_02]: Talk I'm telling you was your last one. Yeah. Yeah, but you did good credit to you as you opened up the world of anime

[00:34:53] [SPEAKER_03]: So and I did show you a couple other ones like we watched Dragon Ball together

[00:34:56] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean you watch pretty much the entirety we still haven't watched all of Kai yet

[00:35:00] [SPEAKER_03]: But I mean that's basically just a better double see Kai Kai's for when you want to revisit

[00:35:04] [SPEAKER_03]: Z and you don't want to watch all of Z. Well, that's why I gave it time after we finished super and

[00:35:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Like we had a good like year or two where I didn't really say nothing about Dragon Ball view as far as watching it

[00:35:15] [SPEAKER_02]: Except for the occasion

[00:35:19] [SPEAKER_02]: Well, I've always been

[00:35:24] [SPEAKER_03]: I am fucking obsessed. It's like that. It's like that whole meme about the

[00:35:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Would you like to would you would you would you like me to introduce you to my religion? What's your religion?

[00:35:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Dragon Ball, I'm interested

[00:35:38] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, well, I mean

[00:35:39] [SPEAKER_03]: All right

[00:35:40] [SPEAKER_03]: So look there's there's the three enemies that I consider to be the best enemies that I've seen and then there's my three favorites

[00:35:46] [SPEAKER_03]: That's fair if we're talking about the three best enemies ever made is when I'm talking straight story as much as I hate to say it

[00:35:53] [SPEAKER_03]: Dragon Ball Dragon Ball Dragon Ball is a story. No, oh G Dragon Ball is great. I honestly that's my number one by far

[00:36:01] [SPEAKER_03]: It's objectively that the best of the best it's solid story

[00:36:05] [SPEAKER_03]: It's objectively Toriyama's peak in my opinion. Yeah, but my chain my favorites team right now

[00:36:11] [SPEAKER_03]: well

[00:36:12] [SPEAKER_03]: But I've always had that my top three

[00:36:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Favorite the ones that I like the most of them have for a long time been Dragon Ball Death Note and

[00:36:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Puma the Locomist and I say that because I figured Dragon Ball. She's just straight like you don't have to think that much

[00:36:25] [SPEAKER_03]: It's just fighting fighting comedy whatever

[00:36:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Death Note is just straight up like that's all mine stuff

[00:36:31] [SPEAKER_03]: It's all just you're thinking about it. You're wondering what's going to happen

[00:36:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Like how is he gonna get out of this one? You know what I mean is it's not about fighting. It's about thinking strategy

[00:36:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, strategy. It's like a giant game of

[00:36:44] [SPEAKER_03]: Chess but that one's like the more like kind of intellectual one that I would think yeah

[00:36:48] [SPEAKER_03]: And then FMA I think is a solid combination of both

[00:36:51] [SPEAKER_03]: So that's why I usually picked those two those three specifically FMAs also just got like a solid like story that it's like

[00:36:58] [SPEAKER_03]: It's very complete. There's no filler and even the filler that there I think there's two filler episodes

[00:37:02] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, and they're so solid you don't even notice them

[00:37:04] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, the first episode the pilot and then there was the not the episode where you find out who Hohenheim is

[00:37:09] [SPEAKER_03]: But the episode where he's like drinking and he's having that dream at that fire

[00:37:14] [SPEAKER_03]: Yes, you got the campfire and like all the people dancing around and he's talking to himself

[00:37:19] [SPEAKER_03]: And he's talking to a young version of the granny. Yeah, that episode's fun. When he's granny

[00:37:24] [SPEAKER_03]: But um that was a filler episode, but that's also it's an easy one

[00:37:28] [SPEAKER_03]: It's like only 60 64 65 64

[00:37:31] [SPEAKER_03]: But it's small enough that it's not too long, but it's also not like a 26 there. Yeah

[00:37:36] [SPEAKER_03]: That's actually how long a fruit basket. It's funny comparing that comparing the quality of

[00:37:41] [SPEAKER_03]: Two shows they have the same amount of episodes you got full middle-aged brotherhood and you got Dragon Ball GT

[00:37:45] [SPEAKER_03]: They both have 64 episodes. It's actually kind of funny very different

[00:37:48] [SPEAKER_03]: They're kind of tied together now because of some memes and jokes, but fruit baskets at FMA are very similar in a lot of ways really well

[00:37:56] [SPEAKER_03]: So I really know nothing about fruits basket. I've heard people talk about it

[00:37:59] [SPEAKER_03]: I've never it's a it's a slice of life romance comedy

[00:38:04] [SPEAKER_03]: Psychological

[00:38:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Supernatural psychological it's um, oh really? It's actually a really really good story

[00:38:15] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't want to spoil it just because it's a it actually went on

[00:38:17] [SPEAKER_03]: We did an episode of my podcast where I gave a very brief summary of it

[00:38:21] [SPEAKER_03]: But um the gaming and collecting podcast available on Apple podcast and Spotify. Yeah

[00:38:28] [SPEAKER_03]: You'll hear from you again

[00:38:34] [SPEAKER_03]: But the reason I say they're always linked is because they both kind of came out in the early

[00:38:38] [SPEAKER_03]: Originally came out like early 2000s. They both had an original run

[00:38:43] [SPEAKER_03]: which was

[00:38:46] [SPEAKER_03]: Very divergent from the source material in a way yeah

[00:38:49] [SPEAKER_03]: And then they came back years later

[00:38:52] [SPEAKER_03]: FMA obviously first fruit baskets much later on and they came out with like fully faithful anime adaptions

[00:38:58] [SPEAKER_03]: Which are like highly acclaimed

[00:39:00] [SPEAKER_03]: And they both are funny. They both funny dubs

[00:39:04] [SPEAKER_03]: They'll have they actually have a lot of like the same cast too, which is really funny when you want when you look into it

[00:39:09] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, but um the reason I would say there's they're kind of linked together

[00:39:12] [SPEAKER_03]: It's because there was a point because everyone knows the whole joke about

[00:39:16] [SPEAKER_03]: My anime list calm how like they just won't like after may hit B fall from number one

[00:39:21] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean to be fair

[00:39:23] [SPEAKER_03]: It's easily one of the best

[00:39:25] [SPEAKER_03]: I think if they're a little psychotic over there

[00:39:29] [SPEAKER_03]: Honestly the only one in terms of general story and like like the amount of thought that went into the story and how it was made

[00:39:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Attack on Titan is the one that comes close for me

[00:39:37] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I always just laughed though because there was a brief point where when fruit baskets final season came out

[00:39:42] [SPEAKER_03]: They it briefly overtook

[00:39:45] [SPEAKER_03]: FMA be as the number one on that site and the fan base went insane

[00:39:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Like because the FMA FMA fan base is psychotic at times. Yeah, like they're too fanatical

[00:39:56] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I'd say that's fair

[00:39:58] [SPEAKER_03]: But a lot of like fan a lot of like fruit baskets to like because there is some overlap there

[00:40:02] [SPEAKER_03]: A lot of the fruit baskets fans like to refer to the fruit baskets reboot as a fruit basket sister

[00:40:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Because it's the more faithful which is funny because there isn't actually there's more male characters than female characters

[00:40:14] [SPEAKER_03]: But the main protagonist is female. Okay

[00:40:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Not a

[00:40:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Honestly, if SAO hadn't leaned more into that type of thing that I would have liked it a lot more. I love the books. Don't get me wrong

[00:40:28] [SPEAKER_03]: I've read

[00:40:30] [SPEAKER_03]: The first 20 in the main series

[00:40:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Which pretty much covers I think what there is to for the anime for the most part

[00:40:37] [SPEAKER_03]: But I mean I like the story a lot the stories. It's good

[00:40:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, yeah, it's just they they make the anime really weird. Yeah, but I will say the soundtrack

[00:40:45] [SPEAKER_03]: Phenom. Oh, yeah fucking love the SAO soundtrack so good

[00:40:50] [SPEAKER_03]: So that's the anime portion
