Really appreciated the music discussion more than usual because when I heard the song I was certain I recognised it! So glad to learn it was that interpolation

Michigander here to second this. I didn’t realize what Jack was talking about until they started singing, tho. Then I recognized it instantly.

Is this a weird joke that’s just going over my head? I can’t possibly imagine MHA even in the company of HxH or any of these other mentioned series.

I feel like the Shiuzuku fanservice thing is a facet of how the fights lean toward the opponent having an energy that matches the Troupe member. Much as Shalnark was up against a cheerful, garrulous Manipulator, Shizuku got a scene that was matched to Pike's weird goofy/horny vibe.

Always appreciate the music discuss! -I personally loved getting hit over the head with the planet Jupiter filling the screen after hearing the Holst quote all episode. -we do have beer barrel polka in the US. Maybe it’s more well known in the Midwest? I learned it at band camp in Wisconsin. Thank you so much for this show, it’s nice to be able to find joy in something this week.

Didn’t hear anyone point it out but Feitan’s finish on Zazan is definitely Togashi making a lighting an ant on fire with magnifying glass joke. Feitan’s nen is the magnifying glass and the sun.

Absolutely out of pocket saying hxh is better than FMA brotherhood. Let's be honest. J HxH is a completely mid Shonen. Yu Yu Hakusho is better, Brotherhood is better, dbz is better, My Hero Academia is way better. The anime slander has gone on too long, these takes are ludicrous.

An unsaid fun context thing with Kalluto is paper confetti (and paper of other various styles) are notable in Shintoism, used for things like purification or decorating shrines/holy sites.
