Speaker:Two southern guys exploring Japanese culture together.
Speaker:I'm Nicholas.

Speaker:And what do we got going on today, DJ?
Speaker:Okay, alright, alright, so...
Speaker:So it's no secret that our last three, several episodes have all
Speaker:been watch alongs, um, mainly because of, why is that DJ?
Speaker:So we did one watch along of Jujutsu Kaisen, uh, Nicholas was not a fan
Speaker:of the series, so we said we'll do a watch along for the second season.
Speaker:For the first episode and then maybe if that was popular if you guys liked
Speaker:it We'll do more of that and it became the most popular thing we've ever done
Speaker:So the most popular thing we ever did and I think it was just despite me like
Speaker:I I think that's Think that's what you guys did But uh, because like then the
Speaker:regular numbers that we usually have it's like basically tripled, right?
Speaker:So Hey, great job guys.
Speaker:I think it's hilarious Appreciate it reason you're out of love but um You know,
Speaker:uh The first, the second season of Jujutsu Kaisen, the episode one through five is a
Speaker:little bit different than like, it seemed like the rest of it, so we were like,
Speaker:okay, they were like speedrun that story.
Speaker:Oh my gosh, was crazy.
Speaker:You have, first of all, first of all, so in this second season, they
Speaker:have the star vessel and Gojo is like young and he's with, uh, what, Satori.
Speaker:Yeah, Satori.
Speaker:Yeah, who looks like Buddha for some reason.
Speaker:Right, from, uh, from the Netflix anime, uh.
Speaker:Uh, what's the I mean Buddha's from like, he's not from anime.
Speaker:No, but I'm You're watching too much anime, Nicholas.
Speaker:You know, he looks like, he looks like if Buddha worked at H& M.
Speaker:That's what he looks like, he looks like a Buddha at H& M.
Speaker:He dressed like he works at H& M.
Speaker:Right.
Speaker:So, um, and I guess he's, he's the antagonist for the movie.
Speaker:And it kind of shows like where they're coming from and how that happened.
Speaker:Um, so they had to protect this person who's a star vessel for reasons that
Speaker:aren't really too complicated to need to remember, but all, all you need to
Speaker:know is that they, they got to protect this chick and to wear them down, this
Speaker:guy, he puts a bounty on their head.
Speaker:So a whole bunch of people try to attack them.
Speaker:And then once they're all super tired, this guy, you know, straight up
Speaker:stabs Gojo in the back and basically kills him, which was crazy because.
Speaker:He's Gojo.
Speaker:Right.
Speaker:Well at first when he stabs him in the back, he's just like, hmm.
Speaker:What's what's this?
Speaker:Oh, it's like a pin through a, uh, a pin through a, uh, what do you say?
Speaker:It's like putting a pin through a sweater.
Speaker:It's like, ah, it's not a big deal.
Speaker:And then this man proceeds to wipe the floor with Gojo.
Speaker:Like, a volley locked at me.
Speaker:Like Gojo's even like, Like, yo, what's going on?
Speaker:Like, what, what happened?
Speaker:Like, Gojo is like, I control space and time, and this regular guy with
Speaker:no powers is just wiping me, bro.
Speaker:Just absolutely wiping him.
Speaker:He made the, uh, heavenly pack with a devil.
Speaker:Yeah, he made a heavenly pack with some, like, demon or something like
Speaker:that, so like, he's super strong and super fast, but like, that's it!
Speaker:Gojo is like, I like Messiah figure.
Speaker:This man is like too powerful basically to even need to exist.
Speaker:This man is stabbing him up, slicing him up.
Speaker:Just like multiple stab wounds, all this other stuff talking magic.
Speaker:I ain't gonna lie.
Speaker:He was, he was my, he's my favorite character of the whole series.
Speaker:Cause, it almost seems like, I'm just gonna make a list, it almost
Speaker:seems like the writer was like, Oh, I heard you guys didn't really, you
Speaker:had some issues with the first season.
Speaker:What if I just went around and started killing the characters?
Speaker:Would that make you happy?
Speaker:Just, just, I just murked them.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:Just like.
Speaker:And it's like.
Speaker:I mean, kinda.
Speaker:I kinda liked it.
Speaker:Yeah, I'm down for that.
Speaker:I don't like the series, so watching Gojo, you know, uh, just liked it.
Speaker:I was like, hey, might be on board with this.
Speaker:Plus, these fight scenes are phenomenal.
Speaker:Yeah, the animation in it, like, put the story aside.
Speaker:It doesn't really matter what you think about the story,
Speaker:the animation is top notch.
Speaker:Mappa is really going all out.
Speaker:Dude, and, uh, and like, they're like, whole, really speedrunning all of this,
Speaker:being like, Oh yeah, hey listen, I understand that you're the star vessel,
Speaker:but, and you're supposed to integrate yourself, But, also, when you, when they
Speaker:get there, hey, if you wanna do this...
Speaker:That's cool.
Speaker:If you don't want to do this, look, you can come along with
Speaker:us and we'll have adventures.
Speaker:Right, and she's like, oh, thank you so much.
Speaker:I don't want to die.
Speaker:Thank you!
Speaker:And then, all of a sudden, this man with a Glock!
Speaker:This is magic anime!
Speaker:And DJ was like, OH SHIT HE PULLED OUT THE GLOCKS!
Speaker:This is all magical, like, oh, you know, they have demon
Speaker:powers and stuff like that.
Speaker:They may say, hey, fuck all the magic bullshit.
Speaker:I pulled out the blicky.
Speaker:Just straight up headshots this girl.
Speaker:And the thing is, is you never know if these people are like, truly dead, right?
Speaker:Right, cause Gojo comes back.
Speaker:No, she like, they like have, they like wrap up her body and stuff like that.
Speaker:The man's like, yeah, I'm the antagonist, bitch.
Speaker:What about me?
Speaker:Dude, and the And the only reason that, uh, Satoru lives is cause he's like, eh.
Speaker:I was gonna kill you, but you have a whole bunch of cursed spirits inside of you.
Speaker:So, you know, I kind of don't feel like having to kill all of them.
Speaker:That's the only reason you're alive.
Speaker:Oh yeah, and you're supposed to be some judicious kaizans, or like,
Speaker:oh, sorcerers are supposed to be way better than other people.
Speaker:He's like, yeah, I want you to remember this.
Speaker:You and all your special bullshit, I'm a regular monkey, and I
Speaker:just beat your fucking ass.
Speaker:The only reason you're still alive is because it would be
Speaker:a slight inconvenience to me.
Speaker:That you died.
Speaker:Dude, I was just like Bro, dude, this is, this is wild and the thing was we didn't
Speaker:know if Gojo was like dead for real.
Speaker:It seemed like he was, his throat, the head stabbed, the leg and all that stuff.
Speaker:He was, bro.
Speaker:His corpse like flies flat on his eye and shit like that.
Speaker:I was like, yo.
Speaker:We were like, is this dude for real?
Speaker:So Gojo dies, then the star vessel dies, then Satori dies, well he almost
Speaker:Oh, Brink of Death, this, this, I ain't gonna lie, he's one of my favorite
Speaker:antagonists of the whole series.
Speaker:This man is just, just speed running, wally mopping people.
Speaker:Yeah, and apparently he's like Megumi's dad.
Speaker:And he's like, yeah, I have some kid who's like a Jujutsu sorcerer.
Speaker:But I don't care about that!
Speaker:And then, so then Satori goes from, from being like, yeah, I protect
Speaker:the weak to, man, fuck the weak!
Speaker:He comes like this, like, just like Jujutsu Sorcerer Hitler.
Speaker:Dude, and then he, but he like takes over the star religious group.
Speaker:He's like, yeah, this is my shit now.
Speaker:Right, like, okay, so, first of all, he has a talk with some blonde lady who just
Speaker:like, cause he's like, you know what?
Speaker:Why, why, why are we dying for these helpless monkeys?
Speaker:And really, he's just mad because someone beat his ass.
Speaker:Like, think about your life, alright?
Speaker:In your life, there are many ups and downs.
Speaker:This is what happens when a rich person loses once.
Speaker:And someone who's not used to losing.
Speaker:They become evil as fuck.
Speaker:He took one L his whole life and changed into Hitler.
Speaker:The fuck is wrong with you, man?
Speaker:Dude, I was like, and he's like, whoa, and the two wolves story.
Speaker:It was, he was just like, well, you have two feelings inside of you and
Speaker:you get to choose which one you feel.
Speaker:I was like, did they just rip off the two wolves story?
Speaker:Like what?
Speaker:This anime is crazy, bro.
Speaker:You lose once.
Speaker:And so that's a reason for becoming Hitler.
Speaker:Like, like, seriously?
Speaker:Like, you don't just take an L.
Speaker:First of all, it wasn't like he lost to, like, a regular person.
Speaker:This guy, obviously, he kills Gojo, he kills Starblade, he's
Speaker:like, he's a professional.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:Just because he doesn't have powers doesn't mean that he's
Speaker:not good at what he does.
Speaker:And he had all these other demons and stuff like that with him, and he has a
Speaker:heavenly pact, so he's like a superhuman.
Speaker:So, Borderline, he's kind of like a sorcerer like you, he just
Speaker:doesn't have the sorcerer powers.
Speaker:Right.
Speaker:So he has to use weapons.
Speaker:So...
Speaker:Right.
Speaker:Why are you so hurt?
Speaker:Like, he's just, so, and actually kinda like, not a big guy, like,
Speaker:Satori, like, that's kinda...
Speaker:You're trying to be Madara so hard, but here's the issue.
Speaker:You're kinda just a bitch, bro.
Speaker:Just, just...
Speaker:You're kinda just mad because you took one L.
Speaker:Like, at least Madara had like a whole bunch of L's and was like
Speaker:in a war and stuff like that.
Speaker:You had one fight that you lost and all of a sudden...
Speaker:You're like...
Speaker:Get used to this.
Speaker:What does Madara say?
Speaker:He's like...
Speaker:Like, all the, the longer you live, all you'll hear and see
Speaker:is pain and suffering and this m But that was over his whole life.
Speaker:This man took one L in high school.
Speaker:One L as a 15 year old and was like, AHH!
Speaker:The world is fucked.
Speaker:The puberty hit this man with a pack of bricks.
Speaker:It's like, you're like 15 years old and one girl rejects you, it's like, AHH!
Speaker:Fuck all women.
Speaker:And you're just like Alpha male rabbit hole.
Speaker:Dude, like, not everybody is everybody's type.
Speaker:Like, just...
Speaker:What are you doing?
Speaker:This is the equivalent of, like, like, imagine you, uh,
Speaker:uh, like, you're on track.
Speaker:Right?
Speaker:And first of all, you're not the fastest kid in your school, but
Speaker:you're the second fastest kid.
Speaker:And the first fastest kid is your best friend, so you don't really care.
Speaker:Right?
Speaker:You know what I'm saying?
Speaker:Like, you two are the two fastest people in the entire school.
Speaker:Then, you have a race one day with someone from a different school, and
Speaker:he just so happens to win first place.
Speaker:Right?
Speaker:Once.
Speaker:And you're like, track is cheating, track is evil, I quit
Speaker:track, I'm never gonna run again.
Speaker:Bro, hey man Sometimes you take L's dog.
Speaker:That's That's the way it works and then so we thought that gojo was really
Speaker:dead We were like, oh, okay, so they're taking this into a new arc They're
Speaker:taking this Gojo in the future must be some sort of zombie or something.
Speaker:Yeah, and uh, Then this man shows up like This man's tweaking!
Speaker:Gojo showed up with all of his scars, like, yeah, it's really me.
Speaker:I time the negative energy, times the negative energy, and make plus energy!
Speaker:That's how I healed myself.
Speaker:And like, the antagonist, the guy who just killed Gojo, and just killed
Speaker:the Star Special, and just muggly walked, fucking Satoru was like There's
Speaker:something wrong with this person.
Speaker:He's like, and then he's floating and he's just like, Oh, the world is so beautiful.
Speaker:I don't even hate anyone anymore.
Speaker:It's so high.
Speaker:Even the, and even the guy who's like evil is like, yo, there is
Speaker:something off about this person.
Speaker:Hey man, you good?
Speaker:He made the bad guy concerned for a while.
Speaker:He was like, I don't know what's going on with this guy.
Speaker:Like, yeah, he's like, yeah, I can totally handle this guy.
Speaker:You know what, fuck it, I'll just kill him a second time.
Speaker:Bro, that gojo goes off on this man He just dodges a whole bunch of his
Speaker:blades and then like while being so bad It's like snaps his fingers and
Speaker:just obliterates half of this dude's side Yeah, and then the dudes just like
Speaker:cupping all the blood and he's just like look at this blood Yeah, you're
Speaker:just like what are you doing, dude?
Speaker:Cuz he's like usually I would just ran away because it's not for money.
Speaker:But like I wanted to prove that I'm better than this guy and I'm like what the crazy
Speaker:guy who says he's now the god of this world and is floating in the sky and you
Speaker:killed but now it brought himself back to life like he's Jesus Christ and he's
Speaker:so powerful at this moment he's not even concerned with you attacking him that
Speaker:guy you should run yeah you should you should definitely run he was not even
Speaker:like he was just chilling like he was just on an airbed yeah like I've said it
Speaker:before and I'll say it again you should run When a person in anime, when you're
Speaker:fighting someone and they're not concerned with any of your attacks, and it's just
Speaker:super happy, you should be concerned.
Speaker:Yeah, you should, you should definitely be concerned.
Speaker:You should be concerned.
Speaker:If you're fighting someone and they're happy about it.
Speaker:That's an issue.
Speaker:That...
Speaker:That's an issue.
Speaker:If you're trying to kill someone and they're happy about
Speaker:it, that's a fucking issue.
Speaker:It's like if you're at a bar and you're about to fight somebody and
Speaker:they're like, Hey, let's go, man!
Speaker:And you're just like, You get first hit!
Speaker:And they're like, Nah.
Speaker:I'm sorry.
Speaker:Whatever it is that we were fighting about...
Speaker:I'm good.
Speaker:I apologize.
Speaker:That's that's on me.
Speaker:That's like Kevin Hart whenever he had In one of his specials, he was
Speaker:about to fight this dude who had a parking who got in his parking space.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:And his mom was like, I don't know, fuck this guy, please.
Speaker:He's like, yeah, fuck this guy.
Speaker:And then the dude goes, he slaps both of his knees like, What's up?
Speaker:And he's like, you know what man, you got it.
Speaker:Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
Speaker:That man took a karate stance or something.
Speaker:He's like, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Speaker:And the mom's like, go ahead.
Speaker:He's like, nah, I'm good.
Speaker:This dude.
Speaker:I don't know what this dude knows.
Speaker:So uh.
Speaker:I don't know what this man's on.
Speaker:This is all over a parking spot.
Speaker:I all of a sudden just became white.
Speaker:You know what's crazy?
Speaker:I don't, like, this whole All of these, I want to go back to talking
Speaker:about this animation real fast.
Speaker:These are like regular TV shows.
Speaker:I'm not gonna, like.
Speaker:20 minute episodes.
Speaker:Yeah, I, the whole, say the only time I've seen animation like this good recently
Speaker:Ironically was what they had some sort of like teenage mutant Nickelodeon
Speaker:essence like TMNT Like TV show recently where they did was like before they were
Speaker:the Ninja Turtles So I guess they're like actual children in the show where
Speaker:they're like fighting the shredder And if you watch it, there's a lot of like
Speaker:it looks like this kind of where it's like as those crazy animation sequences
Speaker:Right and a lot of people who when you watch it, you're like, oh clearly is
Speaker:very influenced by anime because it's like just wild but at the same time All
Speaker:of this is still 2D animated, right?
Speaker:Like the American, American style, they're more like concerned
Speaker:about story and stuff like that.
Speaker:But they've concerned themselves with the story and script to the point to
Speaker:where they forgot about the execution.
Speaker:Right.
Speaker:Right.
Speaker:They forgot about the how good the execution needs to look too.
Speaker:And Japan has taken that section and just ran with it.
Speaker:Um, so I feel like.
Speaker:I don't know, eventually there's gonna be, if, in the east, they
Speaker:have really good animation.
Speaker:In the west, they have really good stories.
Speaker:Bro, middle, middle east, what's going on?
Speaker:What's going on guys?
Speaker:Middle east, come together, come together man.
Speaker:Be the bridge.
Speaker:We'll save the world through anime.
Speaker:Right, exactly.
Speaker:You know what might happen, what if, what if like, Africa, out of
Speaker:nowhere, the whole continent of Africa, like, in like Nigeria, Uganda,
Speaker:they just start producing anime.
Speaker:Just, just start producing samurai, samurai shamploo, just like, clones.
Speaker:Suu, Suu, giant level, and you're like, how are they doing this?
Speaker:And it's like, well, we're kind of here in the middle.
Speaker:So, we took a couple Americans.
Speaker:Took a couple Japanese people, and uh, put them in a Korean studio, and yeah!
Speaker:Dude, like, I mean, do you, do you think they eventually will come together?
Speaker:I don't know if I'll be alive to see it, but God, I hope so.
Speaker:Like, well, hopefully the new Naruto stuff that's coming out,
Speaker:it's going to be pretty good.
Speaker:Ugh, hopefully the new Avatar Last Amber and this stuff is going to be good.
Speaker:Hopefully!
Speaker:I am so, I'll be honest with you.
Speaker:I'm so sick and tired of saying that to everything and
Speaker:being let down so many times.
Speaker:I'm beaten.
Speaker:I am beaten.
Speaker:The amount of times I've said, Oh, I hope this new season is going to
Speaker:be good or new this is going to be.
Speaker:It's just not.
Speaker:Because regardless of which, when you watch it.
Speaker:When the new Naruto or Baruto, whatever the fuck they're doing, when the new
Speaker:one comes out, you're gonna watch it.
Speaker:And it's the first thing that's gonna come in your mind.
Speaker:Oh, but it's not Naruto.
Speaker:So it doesn't really, it could actually be better.
Speaker:Irrelevant.
Speaker:Because the nostalgia is not gonna let you.
Speaker:Irrelevant.
Speaker:And there's people that are already going to complain about it, no matter what.
Speaker:Yeah, so I like...
Speaker:And also, like, people, the nostalgia does something interesting, where
Speaker:it'll, because you have such a positive experience overall, some
Speaker:things that actually sucked really hard, you just don't remember.
Speaker:I've, I, I, you know, uh, uh, I recently rewatched the, the bridge arc,
Speaker:you know, the Naruto bridge arc, the first arc, real arc in Naruto, right?
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:Bro, that pacing is horrendous.
Speaker:Horrendously slow.
Speaker:Like...
Speaker:They are in that ice chain like when the guy makes like a whole bunch of those ice
Speaker:mirrors and stuff like that, they're in there way too long to the point to where
Speaker:like Most of the episodes just inner monologues of them And they just like the
Speaker:camera just like panning to the side as they stand there to stare at each other
Speaker:I'm just like, I mean, this is great.
Speaker:This is great.
Speaker:Oh, come on.
Speaker:Are you scared?
Speaker:Yeah, like this is a really great part in it, right?
Speaker:Yeah, and that's the only parts you remember.
Speaker:They're like and then when Naruto like Freaks out, right?
Speaker:But it's like, they're sprinkled in on this, on so many episodes.
Speaker:You're like, yo, what is going on?
Speaker:And I don't know if it's because of the change of times people used to
Speaker:faster pacing or whatever, but like.
Speaker:I, bro, I, I honestly was like, I have to do, I have to two x
Speaker:this, I have to watch this twice.
Speaker:A speed , like what is going on.
Speaker:And the reason why we were talking about NATO is because jujitsu
Speaker:kaizen is a NATO carbon copy.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:And I think that's also why this, uh, this season, this beginning of the
Speaker:season was almost necessary because I felt like everyone felt that way.
Speaker:I mean, it's not a secret like us saying like, oh, the first season of
Speaker:Jujutsu Kaisen is just basically Naruto.
Speaker:That's not a secret.
Speaker:Everyone knows that.
Speaker:The man has a demon inside of him and now, you know, he's part of the school.
Speaker:It's not, it's not even like subtle.
Speaker:The teacher has white hair, but it's like super powerful.
Speaker:He has a friend who has dark, black, spiky hair, but he's like aloof.
Speaker:Right?
Speaker:The only difference is that they don't have the Sakura because
Speaker:the girl in this one is like more useful and she's also like a bitch.
Speaker:Well, so I guess they're like the cooler versions, quote
Speaker:unquote, of the Naruto gang.
Speaker:But like, outside of that, everyone kind of feels like the same.
Speaker:So I think like this, this second season was him saying like, okay,
Speaker:but I can't do different stuff.
Speaker:I did all this other stuff.
Speaker:So that way they would pay me.
Speaker:Because no one wanted to buy any of my stuff that I was trying to do.
Speaker:So let me make all this bullshit stuff So then I can try to do some other stuff if
Speaker:this is the direction that he's going in this vastly different direction Because
Speaker:i'll say this like buddha madara He's not my favorite, but it's different.
Speaker:And right.
Speaker:Right.
Speaker:Then the guy who Molly walked all the protagonists.
Speaker:I like that.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:I'm more of that guy.
Speaker:Right.
Speaker:Um, but if he's going to take it in this vastly different direction, cause
Speaker:now apparently starting episode six, you're going back to the original
Speaker:crew, right from the first season.
Speaker:If he decides to take it in this vastly different direction,
Speaker:I think it'll be really good.
Speaker:Not, not the anime per se, but I think it'd be good for.
Speaker:The story at least to say that okay, we're I can't be doing that shit no
Speaker:more I'm trying to go do some personal.
Speaker:Do you do you think he do you think he made that first season like this is what?
Speaker:The studios want me to make and this is the only way I'm gonna
Speaker:be able to make this and do this.
Speaker:I Understand the intense hatred and backlash I'm going to get for it and
Speaker:I'm just gonna take that on the chin and then when if I get a second season
Speaker:I'm going to introduce My story, my characters, and the way I want to tell it.
Speaker:I mean, clearly it worked.
Speaker:The first half, first part of the second season doesn't even
Speaker:have the main character in it.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:Not even the secondary characters in it.
Speaker:Or the third season.
Speaker:I mean, what, um, isn't it, isn't it, uh, you were, like, you were
Speaker:telling me that There's this really great, uh, rapper, but he makes all
Speaker:the songs in like Spongebob voices.
Speaker:Yeah, so there's this rapper, it's called, uh, Glorb, G L O R B.
Speaker:So basically, he used to, he used to, you know, he was a, uh,
Speaker:well, he's a producer, right?
Speaker:So he wanted to make music and, you know, he wanted rappers
Speaker:to be on and stuff like that.
Speaker:No one liked any of his stuff.
Speaker:And no one or or really more cared.
Speaker:I would just say not that people didn't like it because this stuff is actually
Speaker:pretty good But it's like no one cared.
Speaker:So as a marketing employee, he's like well everyone likes Spongebob So what if I made
Speaker:a Spongebob rapping really good, which is actually something that's super popular
Speaker:on YouTube A lot of people do it now where they have the Spongebob raps, right?
Speaker:So It's like a marketing thing, right?
Speaker:I'm gonna make something that I'm gonna take something everyone loves do some
Speaker:sort of a little twist on it Right, so everyone watches it because you saying
Speaker:like, oh, this is just some Naruto ripoff.
Speaker:It puts it in your mind, right?
Speaker:You're not thinking about all the other animes that like, oh, okay.
Speaker:Well, this one's original, but I don't really care about it, right?
Speaker:You're thinking like, oh, Jujutsu Kaisen sticks in my mind because
Speaker:I'm comparing it to something else, but that's a good marketing tactic.
Speaker:Right?
Speaker:Soon, everyone's talking about it.
Speaker:Like, even when you say like, Oh, I don't like something.
Speaker:If you go up to your friend and you'll say, Oh, Hey, I don't like this beer.
Speaker:You're still bringing awareness to it.
Speaker:Right?
Speaker:So then your friend's going to say, okay, you don't like this beer.
Speaker:I trust your opinion and I trust your judgment.
Speaker:Okay.
Speaker:Cause you're my friend.
Speaker:Then they're going to go to the bar and when they're deciding a list
Speaker:of different beers, All of them, they're going to sound the same.
Speaker:She's not going to remember the names of anyone.
Speaker:But when he, that bartender says the beer that you say you didn't like,
Speaker:your friend's like, Oh, wait a minute.
Speaker:I remember this one because Nicholas say he didn't like this one.
Speaker:So I might not get it, but I remember, I remember it.
Speaker:Right.
Speaker:Or maybe I'm going to get it just to see what I think.
Speaker:Right.
Speaker:And let somebody else say that they like it.
Speaker:Now you have to try it.
Speaker:Right.
Speaker:It doesn't take another, like, like, it doesn't matter if like 85
Speaker:people said they didn't like it.
Speaker:All it needs to take is one person on the other side of the
Speaker:spectrum to be like, Oh, okay.
Speaker:Well now I need to make my own decision.
Speaker:It's a great marketing tactic.
Speaker:Fantastic marketing tactic.
Speaker:And if that was his marketing tactic, clearly it worked.
Speaker:This man had, after one season and movie, released in America.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:Dude was coasting, man.
Speaker:Just running.
Speaker:Dude, like, Jisoo Kaizen, uh, uh, outsold a lot of regular It's
Speaker:an excellent marketing tactic.
Speaker:Like Fantastic, and I think that I think that now if he takes it in a different
Speaker:direction He can start to kind of really be something that's truly separate because
Speaker:I actually kind of like i'm not gonna say I like This these little five episodes
