Best story. Watches Queens Gambit, puts "grandmaster chess player" in tinder bio, loses at chess, becomes depressed, then feels better after beating kids at chess.
“He just puts the king in the middle” I see he took chess lessons from Code Geass “You start with the king?” “If the king doesn’t lead from the front how can you expect his subordinates to follow”
there’s no context in Balan Wonderworld, just these cutscenes, dance sequences, and the levels themselves, which lack dialogue entirely. The only way to understand any of it is to read the book, which did not come with the game
It's think it's pretty obvious that he purposefully loses to the child at the end, given his demeanor in that signature anime awkward head scratch, but it's still SOOOO much more fun to believe he went down the "bullying kids" route instead because he lost once.
I belive the ending is supposed to be about the kid reminding him of himself when he was younger and restarts his love for chess, but I do like the interpretation that he was just bullying the kids.
@@groudon6295 it was not just a movie it was genuine a guy who was considered the grandmaster of chess lost to the deep blue computer and went insane over the loss
tbf there was a lot of manipulation and psychological warfare going on from IBM (who were also bad to the programmers and engineers, who only wanted a fair fight. They even dissembled Deep Blue itself!) it’s like disregarding that Ted Kaczynski was part of the MK Ultra experiments and saying that he only snapped because he heard a bird imitating a car alarm
Well if I recall correctly, he lost his final game before retirement which is why it affected him so badly and now he's teaching kids how to play chess in the park and he was subtly giving them hints on how to beat him so he was losing on purpose to the kids. But it's more hilarious to imagine the canon is alpharad's head canon in my opinion.
The humans in Balan Wonderworld look like they just evolved from pac-people from Pac-Man Ghostly Adventures, which was cancelled due to the Pac Man Smash Bros reveal.
I think he actually lost, because of him looking at kid and I think understood how he felt. So he learned how to lose and not let it ruin him. Even if that’s the case it is sad he lost to this child/ love interest 😂
He’s not beating the kids he’s losing to them on purpose. That’s why he has the flash back to himself losing then rubs his head in an embarresed motion showing that he is embarrassed that he lost even though it was on purpose.
I understand the actual idea behind the second cutscene is that he becomes some kind of chess mentor to the kids, but it’s so funny to picture him just being like “Well, I can still defeat children!”
i think what really happened was he lost to the kid intentionally and realized that he found joy in getting people to love the game just as much as winning it
