Thank you all for educating me and giving me a little more context on grandpa-pa 🙏🏻 I don’t really hate him; I just most likely misunderstood him and his intentions through a quick first impression. While I was editing, I could see that he wasn’t very mean or cruel towards the twins or his wife (obviously) but I don’t quite like how he treated Namari. Looking back, it does seem like strictly business between those two so that might be why the relationship was like that on-screen. I still think it wouldn’t hurt for him to care a lil’ more than that (mostly because I quickly became a huge fan of Namari in this episode and wanted her to be treated well). Also, the way he kept talking about elves seemed like he was sort of looking down upon them, but I’m sure there’s a reason for that which I’ll find out the more I watch. Just a heads up: I record these reactions in advance so my feelings are definitely subject to change during all these uploads. I appreciate all the comments and information through this series!
YEAAH Tansu is a bit too callous and pragmatic when it comes to just letting Namari get killed. But when his Kiki is in danger he freaks out! Theres a side comic that shows Kaka and Kiki being adopted by the Tansu's when they were little kids. Anyway, Namari is the one who keeps emphasizing this is just a job for her, Tansu is sort of matching her energy. Sitting down and having a meal together gives Namari the opportunity to tell Mr Tansu that she wants to be a permanent part of their group. I wonder what makes her want to stay so badly? The good pay? The attractive twins? The group stability?
Yes, Namari is a dwarf. Interestingly, her name means "lead" as in the metal in Japanese. The dwarf in Kabru's party is named Daya, which means Diamond. You can kinda see the connection between minerals and metals and Dwarves, as they are often associated with mining. Namari's issues are not simply financial, you'll see later on- it sort of impacts dwarves in general.
2:11 "Kaka" and "Kiki" are pretty typical gnomish names, apparently 😅 As a native Spanish speaker, when they were introduced I was like: "OK. Wow" too.
I'm surprised at the hate Tansu got here. He's absolutely someone with a tough personality but he didn't really do anything wrong? Like, he's the healer, unless Mrs Tansu is too, if he dies, his entire party is probably going to die. It's over. Namari's job is literally to tank the hits for him. He can bring her back. She cannot. People killing themselves to keep the healer alive in the dungeon is completely normal and not something our party would not resort to. And he didn't take advantage of Namari. He needed a bodyguard, Namari needed a job since Laios could not pay her, he paid her for her services. That was all that there was to it. He's an old grandpa that's not good at being nice, but hardly a bad person really (outside of one notable exception, DM doesn't really have inherently bad people).
@@Gogito4 I don’t technically “hate” him as it’s a very strong word and my feelings are obviously amplified when I react. Even if he can heal, I think I was mad because it was the way he acted that came off as not as caring. I could see he did care about the other members of his party since he’s spent more time with them and he’s not spent that much time with Namari. I’m sure as time passes I’ll understand his personality and his group dynamic better. He’s an interesting character for sure.
@@CupcakeRuth Tansu is a high-ranking official on the island, and a political and practical man. He's not a bad person, but he certainly doesn't have a very good impression of adventurers like Namari.This is because many adventurers tend to be violent and selfish.However, Tansu is a wise man who really cares about the island.

It's the leg pouches, obviously ^^

I was sad when Namari didn’t join them, she is very cool

Also, he does genuinely care for Kiki- his adopted granddaughter. Namari is more of an employee than family.
