Another Best Anime Clichés

[00:00] hey it's seto kaiba and you're watching

[00:02] anime egotists i don't know why these

[00:05] guys don't know how to duel unless they

[00:07] learn from yugi who cheats or maybe joey

[00:11] who's a dog oh why don't you have some

[00:13] more jelly donuts like brock and maybe

[00:16] you'll get better

[00:19] not

[00:20] oh and

[00:21] i play my blue eyes white dragon and

[00:23] kick your butts

[00:25] [Laughter]

[00:27] and welcome back to the anime egotist

[00:29] where zen osama would definitely eat get

[00:32] rid of us

[00:34] yeah and there would no there wouldn't

[00:36] be a chance for us to come back we'd

[00:37] just be gone yep gone forever

[00:40] but anyways you got me alex and i

[00:43] definitely have been skipping some

[00:46] school days at duel meister academy

[00:49] professor stein has been very upset the

[00:51] past few days and seoul has been too but

[00:54] not as much

[00:56] [Music]

[00:58] and i'm richard

[00:59] that's correct and we've talked before

[01:02] about the best and worst anime cliches

[01:05] but

[01:06] now it's time for the reverse because

[01:08] the last time we talked about another

[01:09] worst anime cliches and this time we're

[01:12] doing the best of which

[01:14] i hope is a good idea but people seem to

[01:16] like the worst of stuff more on these on

[01:18] this channel and i respect that

[01:21] they like to watch us suffer

[01:24] i don't blame them but anyways these are

[01:26] the cliches that we didn't get to talk

[01:28] about last time the cliches that upon

[01:31] further inspection we actually

[01:32] thoroughly enjoy just the cliches that

[01:35] we still like all this time either

[01:39] exactly i mean

[01:41] i know a few of mine come from the early

[01:43] 90s so

[01:44] that's kind of where i have the uh

[01:46] mindset of

[01:48] like this is where this started and all

[01:50] that so i'm kind of interested to see

[01:51] what you think of someone yep and but

[01:54] before we begin we got two new

[01:56] subscribers this time

[01:57] nintendozilla 98 and dorian y

[02:01] thank you guys for subscribing and thank

[02:02] you for the love

[02:04] yes thank you so much we really do

[02:06] appreciate all the support that's right

[02:08] and before we begin i have a bone to

[02:09] pick with you

[02:10] [Music]

[02:11] okay yeah um i seem to recall in the

[02:15] second worst anime cliches video you

[02:18] said you didn't like the fluctuating

[02:20] times and fights meanwhile on the last

[02:23] list of the best anime cliches she said

[02:25] oh the fluctuating times i just find it

[02:27] funny what's up with that what what are

[02:29] you what are you doing why are you

[02:30] confusing our long time fans

[02:33] no i i really view it looking back again

[02:35] i missed that i even put that on my best

[02:38] list but it is one of those things that

[02:40] i love and hate

[02:42] sometimes it makes sense but then other

[02:44] times like i specifically think of the

[02:46] tournament of power uh arc and dragon

[02:49] ball there's no way they had all these

[02:51] conversations that i mean lasted three

[02:53] episodes where they're just talking

[02:55] so

[02:56] i mean they literally have like a 47

[02:58] minute conversation between like three

[03:00] of the characters

[03:01] uh in like three up

[03:03] over the span of three episodes and then

[03:05] they

[03:06] uh fall out and it's like okay so they

[03:08] did that what

[03:09] 10 seconds

[03:12] i'm watching you

[03:14] no but in all honesty i actually

[03:16] i like and hate it it's

[03:20] it's overdone

[03:22] but still enjoyable so i'd love to hate

[03:24] it

[03:25] yeah i can live with that but i guess

[03:27] i'll start us off this time if that's

[03:29] okay okay go right ahead all right i'm

[03:32] going to say this the surrogate parent

[03:34] cliche

[03:36] just the p or the surrogate family

[03:38] brother sister anybody look

[03:40] life is hard life is hard and there are

[03:42] a lot sure or i'm not necessarily huge

[03:45] on the idea that every single person

[03:47] comes from a broken home an anime or

[03:48] something like that

[03:50] but it's nice to know that they have

[03:51] somebody else they can go to like naruto

[03:53] has jariah and aruka

[03:55] in some sense

[03:57] it's just a whole variety of characters

[03:59] that have other figures in their life

[04:01] that they look up to it's it's it's a

[04:03] nice feeling

[04:04] not a whole lot of jokes to be added in

[04:06] this one i just i just appreciate the

[04:07] wholesomeness of it that everybody has

[04:09] somebody they can talk to

[04:12] yeah and it shows that these a lot of

[04:15] times these relationships didn't start

[04:17] out as exactly

[04:20] a child parent-esque relationship i

[04:23] always think of uh

[04:24] aruka having to overcome his feelings of

[04:27] hate towards naruto to

[04:30] be that figure for naruto so

[04:32] i i can agree to that i do like

[04:35] the

[04:35] if there's a parent or parents missing

[04:38] that we do see other people step up a

[04:40] lot of times yeah that's and i i i

[04:42] especially like it in persona 5 because

[04:45] it really starts off like hey like i'm

[04:47] just taking care of this kid as a fake

[04:49] favorite basically and then it goes

[04:51] develops all the way into i'm taking

[04:53] care of you because i see you as family

[04:56] don't date my daughter okay

[04:58] you're not gonna do that right no

[05:00] definitely haven't

[05:02] done it yet dad what what

[05:04] nothing the next play through

[05:06] yeah yeah yeah

[05:08] basically i'm gonna make a great

[05:10] son-in-law someday in an anime sense in

[05:12] real life may it that probably probably

[05:14] won't happen but anyways surrogate

[05:16] parents

[05:17] i talked about it before or for pokemon

[05:20] then we're not going to get into that

[05:21] right now but surrogate parent

[05:23] or brother sister whatever

[05:26] yeah it's just the

[05:27] person who becomes family yes basically

[05:30] i can understand i'll agree um

[05:34] let's see

[05:36] so this one's

[05:39] a little weird uh

[05:41] it's the

[05:43] brief yell

[05:45] when a friend or ally dies in an anime

[05:49] i love how we started off with the

[05:50] wholesome one you're just like nope i

[05:52] can't last

[05:53] exactly

[05:56] it's just i i mean it's a great way of

[05:58] showing the emotion of

[06:00] losing someone in battle or uh to

[06:03] something and the person's just having

[06:05] to yell about it i always picture though

[06:08] like the um i'm a big star trek fan so i

[06:10] like uh and i

[06:12] um

[06:14] when i think of the klingons when they

[06:16] uh die they act they have something

[06:18] actually similar where they all just

[06:19] kind of yell to the skies

[06:22] theirs is more of a warning to the gods

[06:23] that they're sending a klingon to kill

[06:25] them but come on

[06:29] yeah but in all honesty i do really

[06:31] enjoy this it's a in my opinion it's a

[06:34] great way of showing the emotion of

[06:36] and the pain that the character is going

[06:37] through

[06:38] and

[06:39] uh

[06:41] i mean and it happens a good bit in

[06:43] anime when one of the characters dies

[06:47] i mean i'm not necessarily okay with the

[06:48] characters we know and love dying for it

[06:50] to happen but in all seriousness i do

[06:53] agree like if there is a good way of

[06:54] showing like turmoil and anguish when it

[06:57] happens

[06:58] admittedly i guess part of the thing for

[07:00] me is there are times it happens for me

[07:02] but it's not like oh my god i feel so

[07:04] bad so it's more for me it's like oh

[07:06] really

[07:08] this is what we're wasting our time with

[07:09] because i feel like i watch a lot more

[07:10] bad anime than you do because sometimes

[07:13] bad anime can be hilarious

[07:16] that's

[07:17] seems to be true a good bit um

[07:20] now but and

[07:22] the thing is it's

[07:24] when it's done well this grifle it's

[07:27] one scene they they yell

[07:30] and

[07:32] we usually will see like other in like

[07:34] the next episode or in the next few

[07:37] episodes we'll see

[07:38] the other stages of grief

[07:41] throughout this this is the

[07:43] this just happened stage in the griefing

[07:46] process they lose everything they so

[07:49] uh that's just kind of why i like it

[07:52] yeah i can i can i can definitely vibe

[07:54] with that

[07:56] all right your next one all right my

[07:58] next one this is gonna be a little bit

[08:00] of a weird one and knowing me i'm not

[08:02] really sure if you would expect this

[08:04] school festivals

[08:07] okay

[08:08] i guess part of the thing for me is like

[08:10] it always seems like despite the fact

[08:12] that like it's gonna sound a little

[08:13] cheesy but kind of it's nice to see all

[08:15] these characters working together and

[08:17] all these different interactions and

[08:18] setups especially since over here in

[08:21] america we don't really get festivals to

[08:23] that same level of extent and we don't

[08:25] really get scoop because it'll show

[08:27] characters oh well let's take time after

[08:29] school to set it up and then during

[08:31] school all this other sorts of stuff is

[08:33] happening

[08:34] it works in the sense of like persona 5

[08:36] when it was like actually hey we can't

[08:38] have too much fun in this time because

[08:40] there's there's some crap going on in

[08:42] the real world but other instances in

[08:44] like psychic a or other or daily lives

[08:47] high school boy is rich it's just people

[08:50] goofing off and just you get to

[08:51] experience all different sorts of stuff

[08:53] it honestly makes me wish i kind of got

[08:55] to experience stuff like that it just

[08:57] care

[08:58] character

[09:00] school festivals just seem like they're

[09:01] fun for the most part

[09:03] with the exception of anybody who has to

[09:05] clean that stuff up because that just

[09:06] does not seem fun

[09:08] yeah i

[09:10] i tend to agree these are

[09:12] that fun

[09:13] one-off

[09:14] they're definitely better than like the

[09:15] beach episodes

[09:17] uh that always try to be either

[09:19] perverted or

[09:21] have everybody think someone's going to

[09:23] be perverted and they're not

[09:24] this

[09:25] almost everybody all the characters seem

[09:27] to have fun

[09:30] a lot of times characters that even may

[09:31] not always get along seem to get along

[09:33] in these episodes so

[09:36] yeah i like these episodes as well a lot

[09:38] of times when i see them

[09:40] yeah i'm getting a little too wholesome

[09:42] on this list some of those things i'm

[09:43] gonna have to fix that in a bit

[09:47] this one actually ties well into one of

[09:48] mine so oh all right go for it

[09:52] and that is

[09:53] school in general in anime is either

[09:55] very fun or wacky

[09:58] it seems

[09:58] [Laughter]

[10:02] whether it's

[10:04] alternate universes where schools

[10:06] different things i'm thinking of like

[10:08] welcome to demon school irma [ __ ] where

[10:10] they've got a festival episode but it's

[10:13] literally a school for uh demons

[10:16] and they have and humans pretty much

[10:18] trying to survive going to the school

[10:21] they go through all i mean all the

[10:23] school adventures but

[10:25] you see the stuff like um

[10:28] i just i try to think of all the

[10:30] different animes i mean bl's above the

[10:32] school's just nothing fooled with

[10:33] nothing but uh delinquents yeah

[10:36] it's a war zone pretty much yeah i'm not

[10:39] even sure if there are actual grades or

[10:40] tests or anything like that it's just if

[10:42] you survive then if you survive the next

[10:44] three years you graduate

[10:47] yeah and i know

[10:50] school there is a lot different than how

[10:52] we do it here and again

[10:54] we don't do the festivals

[10:56] our big focus a lot of times is

[10:58] whatever your after school activity is

[11:01] again they do clubs but

[11:03] none of the clubs really come together

[11:04] for activities really usually and

[11:06] yeah

[11:07] yeah and that's

[11:08] plus l plus if you got a letter from

[11:11] whatever school is in my heroes universe

[11:13] you would you would jump on that in an

[11:15] instant you know that wouldn't you

[11:17] yeah i mean that's another one i mean uh

[11:20] ua high school from my hero

[11:24] um

[11:25] and it doesn't even have to be

[11:27] that i mean even when they've shown kind

[11:28] of regular schools

[11:32] the students always seem to have

[11:34] a lot more fun now

[11:35] i'm assuming that's

[11:37] just the way the culture the cultural

[11:39] difference between the us and japan it

[11:41] could very well be that

[11:43] um because i think i mean bleach focused

[11:46] a lot of episodes around being at school

[11:49] and having to

[11:50] uh

[11:51] hide

[11:52] uh

[11:53] to be able to go fight the bad guy of

[11:55] the day for in some of the episodes and

[11:57] some of the minor arcs

[11:59] so

[11:59] it's yeah

[12:01] they can all kind of be fun and wacky

[12:03] and stuff and again i

[12:05] i don't remember ever being that fun

[12:07] wacky in high school but i could be

[12:09] wrong it wasn't like that in college

[12:11] either

[12:12] then again i didn't go to a school that

[12:14] taught you how to play card games so

[12:17] maybe i was just maybe my mom sent me to

[12:18] the wrong school but yeah i agree school

[12:21] i do like it the thing is that kind of

[12:23] makes me wonder or that kind of makes me

[12:25] feel like i actually do enjoy more

[12:27] school-based anime just because it does

[12:29] seem more interesting then again we're

[12:31] not the ones taking their tests so i'm

[12:33] sure some of them would be like uh no

[12:36] yeah and again and it's a very common

[12:39] place

[12:40] now again as i said i haven't seen all

[12:43] the school anime so i'm sure there's one

[12:44] where they're

[12:45] where it could be a bit more boring

[12:47] situations at the school or more

[12:49] standard school day seems like it's it's

[12:51] not the school you want to go to

[12:53] okay well there's a couple of reasons

[12:55] for that but yeah

[12:58] anyway so i i can go sign on to that

[13:01] so my next one

[13:03] go right ahead

[13:06] okay see this this one i kind of had to

[13:09] combine these two because they're more

[13:10] or less the same thing

[13:12] hey and i did kind of talk about this

[13:14] last time in another one of our our

[13:17] worstly shapes but i'm gonna say the

[13:18] bickering friends

[13:20] but only if it's done right because one

[13:23] of the problems i have with like the

[13:24] sooner like i've said before with the

[13:25] tsundere and the bland male protagonist

[13:27] is it all the tsundere feels justified

[13:30] with everything she does which is not

[13:32] true and it always comes off as toxic

[13:34] and kind of hateful but when the two

[13:37] friends are like always bickering with

[13:39] each other like i think like for example

[13:41] like in yu-gi-oh i kind of think of in a

[13:44] sense you could say joey and tristan or

[13:46] even that sometimes joey and mai or

[13:49] solely you could say soul and maca

[13:51] because they're basically the old

[13:53] married couple of their group group but

[13:55] like just friends who like know that

[13:57] their friends deep down but are able to

[13:59] kind of go back and forth with each

[14:01] other as long as it never goes too far

[14:04] in one direction of one person being

[14:06] like that i can live with it

[14:09] i like to agree to that um

[14:12] i i do like the part about this where

[14:14] they're like oh you like each other or

[14:17] are friends or something and they're

[14:18] like no i don't like that person at all

[14:21] i've had some i have so many friendships

[14:22] like that it's not even it's it's not

[14:25] that part that part that part i don't

[14:27] like as much but that's just for

[14:28] personal reasons

[14:31] oh

[14:32] but yeah i'll i i can completely co-sign

[14:34] on to this about

[14:36] the bickering friends it's

[14:39] a dynamic that

[14:40] actually exists

[14:42] but you know that when actual [ __ ] hits

[14:45] the fan they're going to come together

[14:46] and be friends yeah don't get me wrong

[14:48] though there would be times when if like

[14:50] you said if you and i were in the soul

[14:52] leader world and we were all just chill

[14:53] we were all just trying to get studying

[14:55] done and we kept getting distracted i'm

[14:56] like okay seoul monica when you two are

[14:58] done bickering like an old married

[14:59] couple can you guys like help us out

[15:01] please

[15:02] and the one i kind of want to tie back

[15:04] to the delinquent friend like just

[15:07] not necessarily the not necessarily

[15:09] always breaking rules or causing crimes

[15:12] or stuff like that but just the best

[15:13] friend the best friend character who's

[15:15] not all that bright who kind of gets

[15:17] into fights with one of the girls but

[15:19] like i said never like overtly like

[15:22] think like

[15:23] like i said ryuji from persona uh magna

[15:26] from black clover

[15:28] or i guess pretty much anybody from

[15:30] beelzebub because they're all

[15:31] delinquents it's just the friend that

[15:34] has a big mouth but at the same time

[15:36] will do anything to protect their

[15:37] friends and this is the most vocal about

[15:39] it

[15:40] okay yeah i can

[15:43] it's an interesting dynamic

[15:47] but the link with friend is kind of a

[15:49] weird scene because they

[15:51] when it's an actual main character they

[15:53] hardly ever do delinquent like things on

[15:56] screen it's just they dress a certain

[15:58] way and then they're called a delinquent

[16:01] and then they're like no i'm not and

[16:02] then magna will be like no i'm not

[16:03] delinquent i'm like dude look at your

[16:05] face

[16:06] like i love you magna but like dude look

[16:08] at your face

[16:10] so

[16:11] yeah

[16:11] it's like all the side characters the

[16:13] bullies that when they're actually

[16:15] delinquents then you see them actually

[16:18] do stuff yeah

[16:20] heck i actually have an example of delay

[16:23] because we talked that we've all talked

[16:24] about we don't like the perverted cliche

[16:26] because it just feels kind of wrong but

[16:28] in daily lives of high school boys they

[16:30] actually find a way a hilarious way of

[16:32] doing it because the delinquents become

[16:34] best friends with one of the girls from

[16:36] their sister academy and they end up

[16:38] looking up and they end up looking up

[16:40] her skirt late into the series and as

[16:42] she's leaving one of them looks it looks

[16:44] he's just like what we did can't be

[16:46] undone i feel so bad and then they're

[16:48] like yeah i tried to tell you and then

[16:50] at the bottom of the screen it says it's

[16:52] the boy felt so bad and guilty about he

[16:55] missed school for three days i'm like

[16:56] that's what i want to see i want to see

[16:58] more people who just feel inherently

[17:00] guilty about being perverted but like i

[17:02] said delinquent best friends and

[17:03] bickering best friends just the friends

[17:05] who you know will always be there for

[17:07] you and who are vocal about it even if

[17:10] they're a pain in the ass at times

[17:12] yeah i can understand that and i i tend

[17:15] to agree usually this kind of standard

[17:17] characters

[17:19] when they're not

[17:21] annoying they're done well if they're

[17:23] annoying then it gets

[17:25] like it's not good i'll say well that's

[17:27] it well that's everything i've never

[17:28] thought this is annoying but i like

[17:30] anyways what's your next one

[17:32] all right um

[17:34] so this one is

[17:36] let's see which one do i get

[17:38] um

[17:42] pulling out of a random item it's

[17:45] usually done for slapstick

[17:47] i was about i was about to say please be

[17:49] more specific with what you're talking

[17:50] about because i heard pulling out in my

[17:52] mind went completely elsewhere

[17:54] well no that's on our hentai channel

[17:56] jesus christ

[17:58] hey if we get enough subscribers we

[18:00] might have to anyways contain you please

[18:03] but this is the stereotypical the giant

[18:05] hammer the frying pan

[18:08] uh

[18:09] that's done a lot in anime i

[18:11] i picture i i think chichi does the

[18:13] frying pan on occasion usually when

[18:15] she's kicking goku out to go work in the

[18:16] fields

[18:18] uh usopp uses the giant hammer with

[18:20] actually this inflatable balloon in the

[18:22] earlier part of the series

[18:24] uh to scare one of the characters it

[18:27] it's always played for laughs and it's

[18:28] always someone who's not necessarily as

[18:31] strong as the main characters but

[18:34] they're

[18:35] like everybody gets afraid when this

[18:37] item gets pulled out yeah i'd also like

[18:40] how in the rockley show 1010 would

[18:42] always pull out that fan to smack lee

[18:44] whenever he was doing something stupid

[18:46] when in real life well in the actual

[18:47] show we'd be thinking you know if she

[18:49] was strong with that fan in that show

[18:52] that she would be real in the actual

[18:53] show she wouldn't get more screen time

[18:56] but it would it would still be helpful

[18:57] but i do agree i do agree gentama in

[19:00] particular does a really good job uh

[19:02] they even find a way to do a switcheroo

[19:04] with it but i'll get into that with one

[19:06] of my next points but yeah i i can i can

[19:08] i can vibe with that especially

[19:10] especially with that time in pokemon

[19:12] where jesse just pulled out a frying pan

[19:14] i know where to cook something but where

[19:16] where did you get that you don't have

[19:17] bet never mind that

[19:19] some answers you just don't some

[19:20] questions you don't want to know the

[19:21] answer to

[19:23] yeah and again it's always played for

[19:24] laughs and it's usually

[19:27] a funny moment

[19:29] yeah but anyways my next one this is the

[19:31] last one before honorable mentions right

[19:34] yep

[19:35] all right

[19:36] just the nice wholesome characters look

[19:39] look this is com

[19:40] look the world is a nihilistic awful

[19:43] place that that probably will be better

[19:45] off once we're all off of it that being

[19:47] said though it's nice to see people who

[19:49] just try to do their best look on the

[19:51] positive side i have things like

[19:54] gordon gordon from black clothe over

[19:58] her own era i mean best girl i mean yeah

[20:01] best girl from nisa coe just characters

[20:03] who try and look on the bright side of

[20:05] things who really wouldn't do anything

[20:07] to hurt a fly but do care about their

[20:10] friends and some of them can be shy at

[20:12] times and that can be annoying at some

[20:14] points but it's just nice to see that

[20:16] there are people out there who have some

[20:18] joy in the world because lord knows a

[20:20] lot of us don't have it

[20:23] yeah it

[20:26] it helps in anime i think when

[20:30] especially when it's darker moments and

[20:32] it's

[20:33] uh someone trying to

[20:37] put it they're

[20:39] they they're still trying to stay

[20:41] positive even in that dark moment it

[20:44] it it can be a really good message for a

[20:46] lot of people need to hear

[20:48] yeah my favorite probably being in chief

[20:51] from chile's just well to be fair she's

[20:53] also learning more about the world so

[20:55] she doesn't necessarily know how

[20:57] nihilistic and and depressing it could

[21:00] be at times but at the same time it's

[21:01] just a nice change of pace and some

[21:04] people might be saying oh well aren't

[21:05] these people it's not really all that

[21:07] realistic it sound like trust me i know

[21:09] some wholesome people and admittedly i

[21:11] do bicker with them at times but i do

[21:13] appreciate their existence just like i

[21:15] do in anime

[21:18] yeah so

[21:19] i'll agree to all that so my last one

[21:21] and then honorable mentions let's do it

[21:25] i'm gonna kind of combine these two

[21:26] because they're both involve how

[21:28] characters look at a moment so

[21:32] the first one is first part of it is the

[21:35] big colorful hair of the main cast

[21:40] i think we've even mentioned this before

[21:43] but it

[21:44] one of my favorite things is to see the

[21:46] crowd and then it's like yes the main

[21:49] character one they're actually moving

[21:51] and two they actually they've got hair

[21:53] that's six times the size of everybody

[21:55] else's and has usually

[21:57] a bright primary color yeah yu-gi-oh

[22:01] i feel like yu-gi-oh started the at for

[22:03] the most part but then they're just like

[22:05] you know what let's just go crazy with

[22:06] it for everybody else

[22:09] yeah it's so funny when you see those

[22:10] crowd scenes and the crowds either

[22:15] and then and then the main cast is all

[22:17] talking around them and they don't move

[22:18] from that position i swear i i've talked

[22:21] about that before and it still creeps me

[22:24] out to this day because i just think to

[22:26] myself oh they're they're all listening

[22:27] to our conversations like they have to

[22:29] be they have to be listening to us

[22:33] that is probably very true but

[22:35] uh

[22:36] again back to the big color for hair

[22:38] it's

[22:40] it makes the characters really pop and

[22:43] i think one of my fav one of my favorite

[22:45] moments and i don't remember what anime

[22:46] it's from

[22:48] it's

[22:50] uh the main character has like the most

[22:52] plain hair so that it's played the exact

[22:54] opposite like everybody else has big

[22:56] spiky colorful hair and they're like

[22:59] they're like panning across and they

[23:01] show like one student they're like

[23:03] and this is me and they cut to the

[23:05] i don't remember what it's called i've

[23:07] only seen like a one or two episodes of

[23:08] it

[23:09] it's like

[23:10] that is true and it makes me it i wanted

[23:13] to watch more and i think i for i think

[23:15] i stopped watching it and just never got

[23:18] back to it yeah to be they kind of play

[23:20] with that in psyche k because when it's

[23:22] showing the normal guy it's like oh i

[23:23] have to congratulate sato for all of his

[23:25] normal stat hats in gym class first of

[23:27] all why do you have those stats why are

[23:29] you taking them now um and it's like oh

[23:31] wait wait wait the camera missed oh oh

[23:33] there he is sorry he's so blunt his hair

[23:36] he and his hair are so bland that the

[23:37] camera didn't notice him at first

[23:42] and then the other one i wanted to talk

[23:43] about uh that kind of

[23:47] like a moment of a visual is the

[23:50] glow means power in anime

[23:54] when characters have this glow

[23:57] it's either they've powered up they're

[23:59] having some sort of emotional

[24:02] control issue where they can't control

[24:04] their power

[24:05] something's going on and it means that

[24:07] they've they're powering up past what

[24:09] they normally are yeah or or it's in gag

[24:12] anime that just means they're like super

[24:14] happy

[24:16] that too yeah it's

[24:19] but it always means that something is

[24:21] happening and it's

[24:23] hey look at this person they're glowing

[24:25] with power

[24:26] yeah i can understand that

[24:28] now it's not the one of the ones i think

[24:30] about all that often but i definitely

[24:32] don't mind it i i combined with it

[24:35] but i mean it happens in like every

[24:36] anime now like yeah i think pokemon's

[24:39] done it

[24:40] all the different

[24:41] uh shonen animes do it and then most

[24:44] comedy or slice of life enemies do it

[24:46] when they have the person who's obsessed

[24:48] with uh manga and stuff they're like i'm

[24:51] gonna power up and then they show a glow

[24:53] and then they don't usually don't end up

[24:55] actually any stronger yeah yeah that

[24:57] happens i mean i feel like saint sam

[25:00] might have been like the first case

[25:01] because that re because when they power

[25:03] up up they re like they actually shows

[25:06] like an aura around them like a glowing

[25:07] and that eventually leads to some power

[25:09] ups down line

[25:10] i should talk about that

[25:11] more on this channel

[25:13] yeah i've i need to go back and watch

[25:15] them and find where i can watch the

[25:17] original series i've tried watching the

[25:19] new one of st

[25:21] apparently it's still on netflix so

[25:23] or crunchyroll but either way honorable

[25:26] mentions

[25:27] exactly i actually ended up thinking of

[25:29] another one so i'm on thr so i have

[25:31] three honorable mentions

[25:33] oh well i took mine down to sevens

[25:36] combining those two so all right so i

[25:38] guess i'll just

[25:40] i'll just go with mine first fantasies

[25:42] or skits

[25:46] okay

[25:47] like just be i just appreciate when

[25:48] characters have active imaginations and

[25:51] they'll just start and their

[25:52] imaginations will just start coming up

[25:54] with the most random stuff up that does

[25:56] pertain to what's happening but but

[25:58] they're just completely exaggerated and

[25:59] people will be like uh no that's that's

[26:02] not what it is particularly one of our

[26:04] favorite ones from pokemon the boss

[26:06] fantasy is where team rocket

[26:09] it's like oh well let's get this pokemon

[26:10] back to the boss and jesse and jim be

[26:12] like why what's he gonna do with it and

[26:14] then rather than showing oh he'll use

[26:16] his powerful pokemon to fortify his

[26:17] forces or everything he's like oh this

[26:19] pokemon can give him a massage or this

[26:21] pokemon can sing him to sleep or just

[26:23] something something stupid like that but

[26:26] my favorite ones of those were probably

[26:27] the ones where things would go poorly

[26:29] and giavanni would always be like meowth

[26:31] and friends will pay for this and

[26:32] they're all just like yeah let's not do

[26:34] that let's keep it for ourselves or

[26:36] something but just but just skits

[26:39] fantasies a bunch of different it shows

[26:42] off the imagination of the characters

[26:44] and some of the more goofy stuff

[26:47] yeah i

[26:48] they're fun little excursions especially

[26:51] when they're

[26:52] a lot of times i've noticed they're also

[26:54] done

[26:55] like they lower the quality of the

[26:57] animation by a lot for the fantasies or

[26:59] change it to

[27:01] like

[27:02] drawings that are like

[27:03] either a really bad drawer or kid drew

[27:06] it and it's

[27:07] it could be kind of cutesy and look

[27:09] really funny so it's

[27:11] i i tend to agree they're a fun little

[27:14] escape yeah heck sometimes they even do

[27:16] fan mail for that stuff like like in

[27:18] gentama they have a see they have fancy

[27:20] work gentoki is like a teacher and this

[27:23] and all the other characters are in

[27:24] school or stuff like that

[27:26] and one of the family questions was

[27:27] what's gintama about i don't get it edit

[27:30] and then the author himself said yeah i

[27:31] don't get it either i don't understand

[27:34] but it's just it's just a fun

[27:36] distraction it never feels like too much

[27:39] it especially helps with the two nibio

[27:41] characters with but i've talked about

[27:42] them before so i'm not going to get too

[27:44] much into that

[27:46] all right see you next time i'll mention

[27:48] all right

[27:49] this is this one this one's gonna be a

[27:51] little bit of weird one like i

[27:53] but character songs like just

[27:55] music that pops up for certain

[27:57] characters like the delinquent character

[27:59] shows up they'll have a certain track

[28:01] from for background music the whole sum

[28:03] character just that sort of thing

[28:06] it honestly it it's one of those things

[28:08] where it really upsets me that when i

[28:10] hear this like they don't have like cds

[28:12] or stuff because i would be listening to

[28:13] this all the time but

[28:15] it's it's a nice way of making the

[28:17] characters feel a little more special

[28:22] yeah i i've noticed that a lot of animes

[28:25] especially lately

[28:28] uh

[28:29] have

[28:30] like

[28:31] one theme

[28:33] that's

[28:34] for everybody for that

[28:36] sudden appearance thing so i i tend to

[28:39] agree when it does when they do get

[28:40] individual ones

[28:42] it does feel more special and

[28:44] more earned i would guess is the right

[28:46] term yeah but like it's an honorable

[28:48] mention so i didn't want to harp on it

[28:49] too much

[28:51] all right and my last one i really hope

[28:53] this is on your list training arcs or

[28:55] just characters actually training

[28:58] it is honorable mention

[29:01] i'll move it to honorable which i was

[29:02] going to discuss it a bit more but oh

[29:04] damn but just just just characters

[29:06] actually growing stronger and not

[29:08] sitting with their thumbs up their asses

[29:10] just it's seeing all the progressions

[29:12] and stuff they go to and thinking to

[29:14] myself wow i could never actually do

[29:16] this

[29:17] but in all seriousness it's nice to see

[29:19] the characters actually want to improve

[29:21] if it's for a special attack an upcoming

[29:24] battle or if it's just that or if it's

[29:26] just oh i have to get stronger and like

[29:28] actually learn to beat make friends in

[29:30] class and and they have like weird

[29:32] training sequences just just that sort

[29:34] of thing it's nice to see

[29:37] yeah they could be so unique i mean i

[29:38] think back to the original

[29:40] one in dragon ball

[29:42] where

[29:43] it's

[29:45] uh goku and krillin running with 50

[29:48] pound turtle shells on their back

[29:49] delivering milk to the residents of an

[29:51] island that's literally their training

[29:53] to get stronger

[29:57] that's that's some that's some that's

[29:59] some karate kid stuff like the wax on

[30:01] wax off thing but that feels a little

[30:03] more useful than hey

[30:05] hey wash clean my car but yeah i

[30:08] think that like as like we said there

[30:10] are so many different unique ways of

[30:11] going about whether it's serious or

[30:13] completely comedic they find ways of

[30:15] making it interesting every time

[30:18] yeah and they're

[30:20] all over the place they've again

[30:23] as you said they could also be in other

[30:25] styles not just fighting and shown in

[30:28] animes they can uh

[30:30] literally show them

[30:32] doing physical training to overcome

[30:35] like

[30:35] social anxiety or speaking in front of

[30:38] people they'll show them doing physical

[30:39] exercises to train for it's like

[30:42] wait why are we doing this

[30:45] it's just like the writers are just like

[30:47] you know what we kind of just let the

[30:48] character go off so we're

[30:51] we all want to go home let's just let's

[30:52] just move on we're good

[30:55] yeah that was going to be my final one

[30:57] but i'll uh

[30:59] just so i'll uh go down to one honorable

[31:02] mention and then my final one as well

[31:04] okay

[31:06] let's see so i kind of touched on this i

[31:09] think in our previous one where

[31:12] the

[31:13] uh how to put it the

[31:17] uh heroes running late to the fight was

[31:20] the original topic i was about to say i

[31:22] was about to say you brought this up you

[31:24] brought this up on both videos

[31:28] but this one is

[31:30] the

[31:31] all hope is lost moment

[31:34] it could be

[31:36] they think um i think of like the frieza

[31:38] moment when he

[31:40] uh

[31:41] everyone like that moment right when he

[31:44] comes out of the water after everyone

[31:46] thinks he's dead before the super saiyan

[31:48] transformation

[31:50] that feeling of

[31:52] that was goku's best attack and

[31:54] this guy and all he did was piss him off

[31:56] more

[31:58] i'll still never understand how we

[32:00] survived that

[32:04] no idea but

[32:05] it's that moment the

[32:07] hero maybe have been on time this time

[32:11] but something's happened though all loss

[32:14] of hope um in berserk i think of the

[32:17] final

[32:18] uh part where uh

[32:20] guts is uh pretty much being

[32:23] eaten alive i think at that point i

[32:25] don't know what else to house to

[32:27] describe it

[32:28] and

[32:29] uh

[32:30] what's his name the

[32:32] the guy who transforms in the end uh is

[32:35] uh pretty much turned into an e the bad

[32:37] guy griffith griffith yes i was let's

[32:39] say we've been friends for a reason long

[32:41] enough and you're forgetting characters

[32:42] from berserk he's gonna find you for

[32:43] that

[32:45] it's been a long time since i've watched

[32:46] berserk

[32:48] but i i guess one of the things for me i

[32:50] guess my dragon ball example would

[32:52] probably be one once piccolo died in the

[32:54] sand that's not because i was like oh

[32:56] crap that's

[32:59] krillin you might want to bust out that

[33:01] destructive disc thing because that's

[33:03] that's the only chance you all got at

[33:04] this point or heck at the end of i don't

[33:07] remember the

[33:08] specifically what the ark was called but

[33:10] in solely they're one of the arcs or

[33:12] ends pretty much like we failed we fail

[33:16] old guys and the world doesn't look good

[33:19] right now

[33:22] i mean another

[33:23] good example of kind of all hope is

[33:25] lost

[33:26] uh that i remember a lot from a kid and

[33:29] it's kind of a tragedy loss of a friend

[33:31] moment similar to the grief yeah it's in

[33:34] mega man nt warrior at the end of the

[33:37] net one grand prix when mega man's

[33:39] deleted

[33:41] and

[33:42] it's like oh

[33:46] yeah we're kind of screwed here because

[33:48] we don't have him anymore

[33:50] lamb did you back him up no that that

[33:52] concept doesn't exist yet i'm like oh

[33:54] damn oh damn

[33:56] this is why we like this is why i like

[33:58] geo more

[34:01] but anyways yeah i could it's a good way

[34:03] to sell the trauma and just the

[34:06] potential heartbreak the characters

[34:08] could be facing right before the

[34:10] character showing up late thing because

[34:12] that's usually what it's followed by

[34:16] and

[34:16] or a sudden power up or

[34:19] the power of friendship

[34:21] yeah i was gonna say the uh the group

[34:23] uniting and standing up again to fight

[34:25] the bad guy once more and somehow

[34:28] they're half healed again even though

[34:30] they might have suffered a punch through

[34:31] the stomach or

[34:33] limbs pretty much broken off

[34:35] yeah but basically like we can't have

[34:38] everybody die richard we can't have

[34:40] everybody die in the anime because like

[34:42] that would be so much more depressing

[34:44] i'm not saying that they're all dead i'm

[34:46] just saying

[34:47] they literally had arms legs

[34:50] broken and then they s and then they get

[34:52] up and continue fighting there it's like

[34:54] no someone else needs to stand up here

[34:56] you're crippled pretty much right now

[34:58] yeah but i do i do understand oh yeah i

[35:01] can i can agree with that

[35:04] all right so

[35:06] what is your final entry point to this i

[35:09] i have a feel you know i i didn't expect

[35:12] training arcs to necessarily be on your

[35:14] list because i actually expected this to

[35:15] be on this one to be on your list but i

[35:17] just i can't not i can't not mention it

[35:20] i feel stupid that we didn't even

[35:21] mention it last time

[35:24] tournaments

[35:26] we really didn't mention that last time

[35:27] no we did not we did not we were not a

[35:30] good channel back then although to be

[35:32] fair we're not a good channel right now

[35:34] but regardless tournaments are awesome

[35:37] dragon ball oh yukihaku show oh just

[35:40] tournaments are just fun and there's

[35:42] usually it usually helps when there's

[35:44] something at stake to them like a grand

[35:47] prize or hey hey if we don't win they're

[35:50] going to kill all of us just it's nice

[35:52] because it usually gives a good variety

[35:54] of characters something to do

[35:56] sure we're not all expecting side

[35:58] character number 25 to do to win the

[36:00] whole tournament for the main heroes but

[36:03] it's nice to see that they're that for

[36:05] the most part they might be able to do

[36:06] some damage or at least like learn a new

[36:08] power-up or something like that

[36:12] i mean

[36:13] we've talked about it a lot on this

[36:14] channel already but the tuning exams is

[36:16] a good example because it it introduces

[36:20] the kona 11 and the sand

[36:23] siblings

[36:25] and lets you get to know them

[36:27] learn their powers learn

[36:29] kind of where they stack and the

[36:31] power between all of them at this point

[36:33] that i think

[36:34] unfortunately after the tuning exams

[36:36] doesn't really go away you don't really

[36:38] change that much position anymore

[36:40] yeah it's just it's just and normally

[36:43] for the most part anyway the fights are

[36:46] if anything i feel like tournament

[36:47] fights are where they the animators and

[36:49] the writers decide to step it up

[36:50] actually and it's not just the best part

[36:53] nowadays it's not even hey what if you

[36:55] knock out your opponent or you kill your

[36:56] opponent you win like there are other

[36:58] things like hey you have to protect this

[37:00] part of the bay so you have to do this

[37:02] sort of thing black clover had an

[37:04] awesome tournament episode and it was

[37:06] completely filler it's just hey all the

[37:08] captains get together do just fight do

[37:11] whatever you want uh and it was an

[37:13] awesome episode what

[37:15] it's just it's tournament tournaments

[37:16] are cool like if you don't like

[37:18] tournaments you're not gonna think what

[37:20] are you doing here go get lost

[37:22] go away

[37:25] yeah i kind of include like

[37:28] olympic games style stuff in this as

[37:30] well where it's teams of people

[37:32] competing in different activities so it

[37:34] doesn't necessarily all have to be

[37:36] fights for this it could be

[37:39] i mean i've mentioned the uh fairy tale

[37:41] grand magic games arc when it comes to

[37:43] this stuff there is fighting in it but

[37:45] there's also

[37:47] ah god one of them's like the train

[37:50] where characters have to run on a train

[37:53] uh style thing uh and make it to the

[37:56] front from the

[37:57] end of it to the beginning of it uh

[37:59] while it's moving and

[38:01] uh different obstacles are coming so it

[38:03] can be different things it doesn't

[38:04] necessarily have to be physical fights

[38:06] heck in hunter x hunter i'm pretty sure

[38:08] there was a volleyball tournament in one

[38:10] arc but i could i could be thinking

[38:11] about something else

[38:13] no i'm pretty sure there is there's also

[38:15] rock paper scissors

[38:17] i think that's

[38:18] more of a move but

[38:20] yeah but base basically it they're just

[38:23] they're just they're just fun

[38:25] they're just fun and we just get some

[38:27] awesome moments between characters and

[38:29] just them getting stronger and sad but

[38:31] sadly it's the peak for some characters

[38:34] because you know some after this we're

[38:35] never going to see them get this strong

[38:36] again

[38:39] yeah unfortunately i think of that as

[38:40] like

[38:41] the yamcha's and the krillins

[38:43] yamcha comes back supposed to be strong

[38:45] and then

[38:47] he's kicked out in like what the second

[38:48] round of the original tournament and

[38:50] then

[38:51] his legs broken by tien in the first

[38:53] round the next year yeah and like

[38:56] like going back to pokemon a lot of

[38:58] people will tell me you know i don't

[39:00] watch pokemon on a consistent basis

[39:02] anymore but when the tournaments for at

[39:04] the end of the season starts that's when

[39:07] i check in and honestly i'm i'm kind of

[39:09] with them on that now sure we all know

[39:11] not every tournament is going to be

[39:12] amazing but i'm willing to let

[39:15] tournaments continue because with every

[39:18] mediocre or even bad one we get there

[39:20] are tons of ones that are just brilliant

[39:23] masterpieces

[39:25] yep i tend to agree i remember i only

[39:28] watched what the first

[39:30] season

[39:31] theories of

[39:33] sun and moon and then came back

[39:36] after it fit after it wrapped up and

[39:38] watched the

[39:39] uh

[39:40] finals in that one so

[39:42] i've seen pretty much i think i think

[39:44] i've even seen parts of the black and

[39:46] white one uh just to see what happens in

[39:48] there but still no we're gonna have to

[39:50] just completely finish black and white

[39:52] at some point you know that right never

[39:54] we have to we have to

[39:57] but anyways what's your last one

[40:00] so this is one that i

[40:02] love and hate at the exact same time

[40:07] and

[40:09] it it's

[40:11] it is stupid

[40:14] when you think about it but

[40:16] it it it's it always happens in enemy

[40:19] swords are better than guns

[40:24] go ahead

[40:26] so in almost every anime

[40:29] there uh that involves

[40:31] someone who's a master sword fighter

[40:33] they're going to face someone with a a

[40:36] gun they're going to chop the bullet in

[40:37] half they're going to beat the person it

[40:40] doesn't matter that

[40:41] oh they were a sniper and 100

[40:44] meters away shooting it's

[40:46] they're still going to run up and

[40:48] chop the gun into pieces or

[40:50] disarm them that person with the gun

[40:53] never wins

[40:54] yeah battlefield friends will be far

[40:56] more interesting when the characters

[40:58] start using swords and stuff like that

[41:00] but i i do it's a it's a funny cliche to

[41:03] me to think of like all right i i have

[41:06] this person tracked i have know

[41:08] everything about them their vital

[41:10] sponsors everything and the guy with the

[41:11] swords like

[41:12] sword gober and then just takes them out

[41:15] it's silly but to me it's just the right

[41:18] amount of silly

[41:20] exactly it's

[41:22] one of those things every so often i do

[41:24] kind of want the

[41:25] indiana jones thing where the person

[41:28] comes out and is doing all their sword

[41:29] moves and the person just pulls out

[41:31] their gun shoots them and walks away but

[41:34] you never get that really an anime you

[41:35] get you get the

[41:37] i'm gonna shoot you from 100 meters away

[41:39] you'll never get close to me and then

[41:41] the person takes off running with the

[41:43] sword and man just close the distance

[41:45] and

[41:45] take them out so yeah it happens all the

[41:49] time at least it seems like

[41:51] yeah the only time i'll really start

[41:52] hitting it is when the sword itself

[41:54] starts shooting actual bullets then i'm

[41:56] act then i'm going to be like all right

[41:57] this is jump this this is officially

[41:59] jumped to the shark it's jump the keys

[42:01] to me

[42:02] [Music]

[42:03] i mean yeah i think that's even happened

[42:06] well i don't mean i don't mean like

[42:08] energy blasts or something like that i

[42:09] mean like the sword actually starts

[42:11] firing bullets like a gun that's that's

[42:13] what i'm going to be like all right i

[42:15] got i gotta kick richard's ass for this

[42:16] i'm gonna yell at him for this

[42:18] no i think it's happened before i think

[42:20] it might be in tri-gun or something it's

[42:23] quite possible with something like that

[42:25] oh my god your robber you're probably

[42:27] not even wrong but

[42:29] i i can side with that like i said it's

[42:31] just goofy enough for me to it's goofy

[42:33] enough for me to like i can tolerate it

[42:36] exactly it's

[42:38] one of my ones that i love to hate

[42:41] but i still love it

[42:43] [Music]

[42:44] so i'm starting to find out what you

[42:46] love to hate now and i'm i'm not quite

[42:48] sure how i feel about it but

[42:50] i guess that i guess that's that that's

[42:53] all we have that's all for today

[42:55] yeah i believe so

[42:57] all right so ladies gentlemen and others

[42:58] which what anime cliches that

[43:01] what anime cliches do you love of do you

[43:03] like the more wholesome characters like

[43:05] the characters who will do anything for

[43:07] their friends or just be supportive for

[43:10] stuff like that or d are you one of

[43:12] those people like richard you're just

[43:14] like oh i like when all hope is lost and

[43:16] people just are just empty and sad that

[43:18] sort of thing just let us know what

[43:20] cliches do you like that we haven't

[43:21] really talked about just that sort of

[43:23] thing

[43:24] exactly and also let us know if there's

[43:26] any that like how i like

[43:28] love to hate

[43:30] it seems like i have a lot of lovey uh

[43:32] cliches here yeah but yours are more

[43:34] your love hate stuff with anime is more

[43:36] than anger and mine's more i'm just

[43:38] laughing like an idiot also just let us

[43:40] know what other sequel videos would you

[43:42] like for us because i do because i'm

[43:44] gonna be honest we could do the our

[43:46] favorite anime arcs we could do that

[43:48] video forever but we could also do the

[43:50] anime arcs that need fixing thing

[43:53] oh and the worst anime episodes i have

[43:55] so much i have so much ammunition for

[43:57] everything nowadays so we could do this

[44:00] for a while

[44:02] exactly um

[44:04] i think our next episode might be uh

[44:06] kind of how we feel about the new

[44:08] pokemon games coming out because this is

[44:11] actually coming out on or this has been

[44:12] filmed on the day that those games are

[44:14] being released so yeah that is correct

[44:17] and we get to talk about just how awful

[44:19] and dreadful those games are and how

[44:21] game freak is screwing us over or talk

[44:24] about how we're going to start kissing

[44:25] game for each feet because they know

[44:27] everything of what we want or we're just

[44:29] like somewhere in between like

[44:31] or just like i like it but or i hate it

[44:34] but i don't like it but like it's i

[44:36] don't know people get crazy about stuff

[44:38] on the internet we try to be a little

[44:39] more tame about it for the most part

[44:42] exactly

[44:44] but anyways we will catch you guys later
