He he I don't I don't hate it.

Speaker:

He likes to think that I do, but I don't.

Speaker:

He liked to turn his nose up at it.

Speaker:

Because it's not a, you know.

Speaker:

It's because it's not my type of anime.

Speaker:

So because of that, he's like, Oh, you only like anime that's good.

Speaker:

I mean, kind of.

Speaker:

This is good.

Speaker:

It is good.

Speaker:

But like, it's not like, it's not like I was like, you know, whatever.

The point is that it's not VLAN Saga or attack on Titan.

Speaker:

I get it.

Speaker:

Oh, I'm sorry.

Speaker:

It's Vin.

Speaker:

um, we do not condone drinking alcohol.

Speaker:

Yes.

Speaker:

Please drink responsibly.

Speaker:

Uh, uh, please be of age to drink responsibly.

Your son is safe.

Speaker:

Oh, that's, that's uh, That's the Sorcerer's Shogun, yes.

Speaker:

Oh, yeah, this is the time lapse from last season is two years, right?

Speaker:

I forgot this we forgot to say that Well, I mean we wouldn't have to

Speaker:

Speaker:

Oh He's apparently seen this before yeah jump the gun a

Speaker:

little bit huh just a little bit

Speaker:

But why

Speaker:

why why are you gonna kill everyone again?

Speaker:

Is he just evil?

Speaker:

Oh, you're the guy of destruction.

Speaker:

Okay.

Speaker:

That clears it up.

Speaker:

You know, how every guy thinks, I'm gonna wipe out the world and

Speaker:

build it back the way I want.

Speaker:

That usually just means more, more women, usually.

Speaker:

Right.

Speaker:

And I'm like the only guy, that's usually what that means.

Speaker:

Hey, yo!

Speaker:

Oh, they have this tiny, like, subtext on the bottom that's in Japanese

Speaker:

that we don't know what this says.

Speaker:

Yeah, we don't know what that means.

Speaker:

Samurai!

Speaker:

Samurai Jack!

Speaker:

I really hope it is Samurai.

His name is Schneider.

Speaker:

It's the greatest name.

Speaker:

Oh yeah, I forgot.

Speaker:

One of the samurais is, is a huge pervert.

Speaker:

I will say this, I don't really appreciate the zoom ins on

Speaker:

the butts and the tits I get.

Speaker:

I'm not gonna do another zoom in on the ass.

Speaker:

Uh, I mean on the uh, on the male crotch there.

Speaker:

That before in an anime.

Speaker:

So he is a uh...

Speaker:

Super perv, isn't he?

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

He's a super perv.

Speaker:

Woah!

Speaker:

Woah!

Speaker:

Ha ha ha!

Speaker:

Is

Speaker:

he wearing a regular t shirt?

Speaker:

That's a time traveler.

Speaker:

Ha

Speaker:

ha

Speaker:

ha!

Speaker:

Ice!

Speaker:

Something wrong?

Speaker:

Because you are like eight feet tall, bro.

Speaker:

Wasn't this a, weren't you a person before?

Speaker:

Yeah, I thought it was, he's a person.

Speaker:

Seal the source show gun.

Speaker:

Yes.

Speaker:

Every time they answer a que ask a question, they're always like, yes.

Speaker:

the progress she made.

Speaker:

Oh, of course.

Speaker:

Next, next question is gonna be, the answer's gonna be yes.

Speaker:

Watch this.

Speaker:

I'm gonna say yes with 'em.

Speaker:

Indeed.

Speaker:

Yes, of course.

Speaker:

Hang, yes, determination.

Speaker:

Oh yeah?

Speaker:

So this is the main Yes.

Speaker:

Yes.

Speaker:

Yes.

Speaker:

Another word for that's right.

Speaker:

How many times did I say yes?

Speaker:

Yes.

Speaker:

Yes.

Speaker:

Say yes again.

Speaker:

No, you can't do the speech.

Speaker:

Yes.

Speaker:

So that was the end of season one.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

Obviously because it's season two, episode one, so.

Speaker:

Oh,

Speaker:

this dude's such a pervert.

Speaker:

Yes.

Speaker:

Go kill him.

Speaker:

Being a pervert is not part of the samurai way.

Speaker:

Hi, I'm a small child, and I turn into the guy who you, uh,

Speaker:

Promised your virginity to.

Speaker:

Yeah, basically.

Speaker:

Did you just kiss this child again?

Speaker:

Yeah, that's, that's one.

Speaker:

You kiss this child to release the, the, the magical seal

Speaker:

that lets the adult within him.

Speaker:

I predict that she's going to have to get more and more

Speaker:

explicit as the season goes on.

Speaker:

Probably.

Speaker:

But it's okay since it's an older woman and a small child.

Speaker:

Or a small male child.

Speaker:

Right.

Speaker:

Because apparently it, it, that way it doesn't matter.

Speaker:

But if it's the reverse, it's, it's...

Speaker:

Actually, this is anime.

Speaker:

They do the reverse, like, all the time, actually.

Speaker:

All the time.

Speaker:

Whoa, this is the first episode?

Speaker:

What?

Speaker:

No, this is episode No it's not!

Speaker:

Hey, look, I'm Okay.

Speaker:

Sorry about that everybody, it just like clicked over to the second episode.

Speaker:

I don't know why I did that.

Speaker:

Anyway, uh, Nicholas, what'd you think of this first episode that you've

Speaker:

seen for the second time apparently?

Speaker:

Amazing, man.

Speaker:

No, I thought,

Speaker:

this is one of my This is, this anime does not take itself seriously

Speaker:

at all and makes fun of everything.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

80s, you know, I mean, that's with the shoulder pads, right?

Speaker:

Because right, the big shoulder pads, the like, Oh, the name of the Metallica

Speaker:

is like the name of the Metallica.

Speaker:

Yes.

Speaker:

The name of the city, the over the top, you know, Shatner type,

Speaker:

you know, monologues and dialogue.

Speaker:

Everyone says yes.

Speaker:

After asking a question.

Speaker:

You know, the, the over, overarching fanciful armor.

Speaker:

Alright, alright, no one cares about that.

Speaker:

Let's have some real questions here.

Speaker:

When, would you rather be a sorcerer or one of the ninjas?

Speaker:

Or would you rather be a samurai?

Speaker:

Cause they're clearly, cause they're clearly like distinctions.

Speaker:

Uh, I'd rather be a Sorcerer's Shogun.

Speaker:

Okay.

Speaker:

Alright, alright, alright.

Speaker:

Now, what is your main element?

Speaker:

Because clearly, they have a bunch of elements, but like,

Speaker:

they clearly have one main one.

Speaker:

That they use.

Speaker:

Lightning.

Speaker:

Why?

Speaker:

Because lightning's the best.
