Life got weird, so the T(a)LK for BokuAca was a bit delayed. I’ll push them out now, and I promise *snickers* that I’ll be updated from here on out. We are constantly crushed by the time zone problem though, because we can’t find a good schedule to do the discussion as the episodes come out. We will try to push them out before the next episode comes out though. Oh, what’s that? Site and Devil’s Line ends next week? Well, this was certainly a good disaster of a collab. I can’t wait to do it again.
– – – we discussed T(a)LK: DEVIL’S LINE EP 8 first – – –
– – – we discussed T(a)LK: MAHOU SHOUJO SITE EP 8 second – – –
Yeah, we saved the best for last for this week.
TPAB: the sasuke retrieval arc, lol
Leap250: it’s gonna be way more compressed, but yeah, that’s essentially what it is
Keiko: It’s begun!
TPAB: compressed? ah, you mean unlike the actual Naruto arc, lol
Leap250: yeap xD this’ll last, like, 4 eps tops
Keiko: That’s true lol. BokuAca does everything quickly lol
Leap250: dude Gang Orca is legit
TPAB: the rescue team feels “meh” to me though. I wanted new heroes, but the guys who fought stain are still helping.
Keiko: Oooooo 😮
TPAB: whoa, how legit?
Leap250: He’s a human killer whale for starters xD
Keiko: Yeah he looks pretty cool. I’ll give him that. He got some cool moves as well I’m guessing? 😮
Leap250: he has supersonic waves and stuff, lol. other than that he does regular strong person stuff
Keiko: I’m looking forward to the supersonic waves 😮 Wanna see how that works!
TPAB: what is his power??
Leap250: he can manipulate thread, make them thin and strong to bind almost anything
Keiko: Makes sense why he’s called Best Jeanist and is wrapped in cloth
Leap250: as for the rescue lineup, well, at least yaomomo’s there
Keiko: True…The line-up isn’t looking the best though unless something new happens with this group
TPAB: it feels like the major baddies will face off with the rescue team, but next ep they did say the device led to a nomu factory
Leap250: that was such an unneeded spoiler by the previews, lol, but I guess that’s better than what else they can reveal. and yeah, my hint as to the effectiveness of the rescue team would’ve been, ‘they won’t fight’, lol
Keiko: Lol yeah they made that loud and clear. They plan on not fighting. Good for Midoriya since his arms are beyond busted.
TPAB: yeah, but it feels like they will fight, since the show is explicitly telling us they won’t. at least they’ll meet toga and the gang, i feel
Keiko: Yeah I felt like they were setting them up to fight but at the same time I don’t want them to fight. Probably. I doubt they can avoid some sort of confrontation.
Leap250: other than Iida and Kirishima most of them are wearing it damage-wise. it’s gonna be a rough go if they do decide to throw down.
TPAB: which kinda feels like they will throw down, given their disadvantage, lol
Keiko: True say lol
TPAB: you mean almight will be there
Keiko: Won’t he be out front fighting? Unless they actually meet, which I’m sure the kids will try and avoid, I don’t think it’ll be All Might stopping Midoriya. That’s way too expected
Leap250: what do you guys think of nomus apparently being made in a factory?
TPAB: given their wide eyed reaction, i guess they found out how nomu’s are made, lol. like in detail or something
Keiko: Where else would they be made? I thought they’d be made in some sort of factory lol
TPAB: but the pro heroes are also going to be there, right?
Leap250: ah, well, another one of those yes and nos
TPAB: the receiver will be broken while the team escapes, so the pro heroes are left to deal with the mess xD
Leap250: I’ll say here that the nomu factory is a ways from the hideout, lol
Keiko: So we’re in for quite the fights… how will they get from one place to the other in time then?
TPAB: bakugo could escape, but I doubt it
Keiko: If he escaped all by himself, that would be something. But yeah doubt that happening
Leap250: they got time, some fights will happen before they get there. well, “fights”
TPAB: ah, wait, almight knew where the bar is, so I guess the pro hero and the rescue team will eventually meet
Keiko: Ahh true…
TPAB: i just hope the fights are more satisfying this time
Keiko: Yeah sames.
Leap250: I can guarantee you at least one of the fights to come out of this is an absolute banger
Keiko: Hopefully we get some good fights with the line-up there is. Ooo well I’ll look forward to that! Hopefully it won’t disappoint.
TPAB: sounds like a pro hero bash
Leap250: with a lot of eyes watching this time.
TPAB: why else would they assemble an A team? but yeah, public opinion is brutal
Leap250: to make an impression really, I mean, you’d think All Might is already enough. even in his current state, lol
TPAB: yeah, it’s going to be awesome for sure
Keiko: True… just goes to show how much is riding on this operation
TPAB: we also got a scene of hands guy persuading Bakugo. he didn’t budge, but i have a feeling he might, ever so slightly
Keiko: Nope Bakugo isn’t budging. He wants to beat All Might. No way is he becoming a villain
Leap250: or, whoever it is Shigaraki is answering to
Keiko: Yeah and wasn’t All Might planning to fight him anyways?
TPAB: a momentary loss for one for all, i could see that setting up the stage for a Bakugo heel turn
TPAB: oh, we also learned about Deku’s condition in this ep. he is completely destroyed, lol
Leap250: he has arthritis, basically xD
Keiko: Yeah completely and utterly. One wrong move and he can say good bye to those arms
TPAB: makes sense considering how much he pushes himself
Keiko: Yeah something like this was going to happen sooner or later
Leap250: makes you think how unnaturally durable All Might must be
Keiko: True say. It probably has something to do with how he buffs up when he goes All Might mode
TPAB: he did say Deku rushed his training, so Deku was never really ready for all of this, lol. The guy is just insanely heroic. But it finally caught up to him
Keiko: That’s true. Midoriya was never going to be ready. That much was foreshadowed when he got the powers. It was obvious something would happen.
Leap250: fun fact, this is actually a future arc xD
TPAB: another training arc?
Leap250: yeap. I did tell you last time that there was gonna be another one
Keiko: Well that will be something to see. It’ll be interesting to see what he decides to come up with
TPAB: as in another group trip or something similar with Gran Torino??
Leap250: nope, straight up training arc for everyone. Not just Deku I mean, but the whole class
TPAB: after this arc? will the 25 ep cover it?
Keiko: These guys are gonna need it! Good question
Leap250: yeap, it’ll cover it for sure
Keiko: Well we’ve got fighting then training to look forward to then! Sounds like a good season!
TPAB: oh, definitely! This season will be packed
Leap250: I wanna say it’s even the arc directly after this one
TPAB: he’ll need it after Bakugo turns evil :p
Leap250: I wanna see them fight again too :p
Keiko: Lol I wanna see them fight as well. But Bakugo turning evil, please no.
TPAB: we shall see, lol. so what else is there in this ep?
Keiko: The disguises :joy:
Leap250: Yaomomooooo
Keiko: I love how she just wanted to go into the store! She could have made the clothes but nope! Gotta do it the commoner way! That’s just cute
Leap250: she did say she puts the economic balance of Japan in consideration, hahaha
Keiko: Err because she’s the only one who has such a background?
TPAB: i pay more attention when they fight. so, anyways, ratings?
Leap250: I feel like this talk was, like, two talks worth. 6 and a half maybe?
Keiko: I’ll give it a 7 I guess. Yeah it felt really long lol
TPAB: is it long? a 6 for me
Keiko: Yeah lol I mean we almost spent 2 hours on it…
Leap250: that, or we just blaze through DL normally, lol
TPAB: omg yeah, 2 hours, long. why is that?
Keiko: Who knows lol
TPAB: atleast we’re done! til the next one!
Keiko: That’s true lol
