Yo - the person saying "I don't belong in that ring" isn't Chief, it's another character introduced in Episode 7. I thought that might be the case, the facial hair didn't match-up and the voice sounded slightly different, but I took a chance because the idea tied together nicely. Hope y'all are enjoying the rest of what Megalo Box 2 has to offer.
Yeah that's another character from episode 1, the guy on the TV who'd match against Liu. by the way nice review on 3:56 that philosophy got me a goosebumps
This is honestly as tight of a screenplay that you can write. One of the best things about it, like any well written piece of storytelling, is that when you go back and re-watch it, you learn something new. Whether that's in themes, parallels, foreshadowing, or just the little details, there's always something new. It is hands down the best writing that I've seen all year and is easily top contender for my favorite piece of entertainment of the year.
Season 2 was unbeliavable. Sacchio character, my man Chief, Joe's redemption and thinking about others. Even the rich lady evolved. Characters really feel like real ppl, fluid, tridimensional
yaap i thinks that was mac. I recognize from the hair. Maybe next episode we will see mac and joe fight. Not with liu. And of course i really want to see joe using chief gear in the next fight.
I agree I also loved the first season and now I also love this second season even more and the battle for recovery and redemption I'm excited where this show will go. To me the rest of the show will tell us where gearless Joe now Nomad's path is headed either down the same endless lost road or the path of redemption and hard work.
MegaloBox 1 was already amazing for me, but Nomad, as a latino, hit very deep. I still can't believe the amazing story they told in this anime and the fact that so few people watched it. It is now in my Top 5
I loved nomad and all the immigrant/Mexican references. The line where he stated there’s nothing embarrassing about survive sticked with me so hard 😭 but just in general, the whole season and show hit hard, it’s definitely going to down as one my favorite anime’s!
The first episode of this season had me a bit disappointed because it kind of completely undermined the happy ending of the first season, but also intrigued to find out just what had happened. What came after that though... I am glad I stuck around for it.
there is also one more thing that I would like to add to the stray dog's parallel in the story to joe that when he buried the stray dog he wrote NOMAD on its tombstone symbolizing that his nomad version his dead and he will return back to being gearless joe
You make some of my favorite content on TH-cam. The first of your videos that I ever watched was when I saw one of your analysis videos of Hyouka in my recommended feed and it motivated me to watch it, and that show has completely changed my life. So thank you
👍You did a great job describing what makes Megalo Box 2 special. I love this new season. It's sad, yes, but hopefully some characters achieve their needs and wants at the end.
I actually went and watched the first season just because of how much Nomad interested me. Also, yeah, aside from Nomad, Odd Taxi was the first seasonal anime I started because I knew how underrated it would be. Everyone needs to watch it.
welcome back!!!! great analysis of this first 4 episodes, really nomad is overcoming the original. will you be making a video about Godzilla Singular Point? it’s showing to be an excellent Science fiction. Mainly how you deal with your plot, even without deepening your characters
When you achieved your goal what now after preparing everything you had for your goal u never had a future u planned to have basically what all mc usually gets
I loved megalobox season 1 all of it i pinged it and thought the whole season was done and didn't think a second season would be necessary or would ever succeed if worked, but i wasn't even close to being right the second season was incredible emotional i cried multiple times it was climactic nostalgic and there was many happy moments and loved the fights Edit: i cried watching this video
Also, off topic. I just finished A Lull in the Sea and I'd love to see you do a video on it. I think I heard you mention it before. It was really beautiful. ❤️
there is this significant parallel between mac rosario and chief no? for some reason i see that the two characters are incredibly similar, something to do with the hummingbird i suppose, or maybe its their ethnicity
Interesting point that Mac ended up being viewed as a embodiment of chief in Joe’s eyes by the end of the season as well. So I’m some way he wasn’t wrong about that being chief at first.
To me, the anime was about how you can never loose everything, so all that remains of you will always be your home, no matter how lost you are So the bird represents that specific idea of "home" as something that follows you wherever you go
Hey is there a problem, I can only find only few videos on the channel. Other videos are gone Edit: Really answer me ,Am I in a world line where reply value has no videos?El Phy Congroo , I have been spamming this all over the place
it’s a pity only 13 episodes, otherwise something more serious could have been told, the first 2-3 episodes gave me a false expectation that it would be the story of Nomad, and not Joe, correspondence and Joe’s name change to Nomad disappears as soon as he agrees to train Chief, and the plot with refugees seems superfluous to me, leaving only the Chief to get Joe out of depression and nothing will change, I thought this whole Mexican (probably) theme would have weight, but it’s just to justify the existence of the gauge and stylization of the ending and opening. (well, I liked Joe with a beard more)

Mac Rosario
Make a video in the second half please.
Hey man, what do I watch nomad on?
He is called mac the guy who joe fought in the last episode of season 2 I think
it feels like the first season is just a prequel
That’s how Ashita no Joe feels. The part 2 is way better then the part 1
Chief may not have been ranked in Megalonia, but he is #1 in our hearts.
He didn't need to win Megalonia to be the champ.
Ep 7, the most recent ep is arguably the best one so far. It’s a shame megalobox doesn’t have more exposure especially S2
The fact you can say this every week by updating the number is so amazing.
watch ep 12
I want everyone I know to see the absolutely stunning beauty of s2
@@georgebrandenburg3786 wait what
@@lucaswallo8127 what do you mean?
Chief, rip big man. Gone but not forgotten. This is already my anime of the year. Megalo box is goat.
Honestly Chief Going out like that is what I was expecting/wanted from the end of season 1. This season is really good so far
Vivy is anime of the year. 😛 It is very underrated because of the misleading synopsis
@@cedricb2344 If Nomad wasn't released, Vivy would be my pick BUT IT AINT NOMAD
@@cedricb2344 I misjudged it in ep1... glad I went back to check Vivy out.

this and castlevania season both do this and are my favourite series this year hands down
The dog's parallel was blunt but effective. I really enjoyed it
I love that ending theme so much. Music as raw and beautiful as that is hard to come by these days.
I always left the credits run, just to hear that ending theme.
7:38 "And he collapses after seeing Mio's mother."
Same, Joe. Same.
For me it’s her voice-whoever did the casting for the dub deserves a promotion. That voice is sweet as honey
amazing video. hard to believe they really made this show so dramatically better on a second season
Man episode 7 is just dope...
@@sahil8024 The sparring session was great
Yeah good stuff. The show is beyond my expectations, never got disappointed!
@@sahil8024 The OST building up to that monstrous animation made it more mad hype than it already was!
Sadly Nomad just passed under the radar severly underrated
im on ep 12 now and believe me the story is out of this world its just soooo good.
Season 2 was unbeliavable.
Sacchio character, my man Chief, Joe's redemption and thinking about others.
Even the rich lady evolved.
Characters really feel like real ppl, fluid, tridimensional
Hey, I just wanted to add, it wasn't chief who said "I don't belong in that ring" it was Mac who was introduced in episode 7.
Glad to see someone talking about this show. I did not expect such a step up in quality compared to the first season... it's absurdly good
The music of this season is perfect.
This whole series does not get the respect it deserves. It's such a good over arching story.
Megalobox 1 was IMO amazing start to finish, and this second season is kicking my ass so hard. I love it.
RV: Not dead yet.
Chief is like that cool uncle we don’t deserve
Chief isn't the one that says he doesn't belong in that ring in the beginning as we find out in later episodes.
yaap i thinks that was mac. I recognize from the hair. Maybe next episode we will see mac and joe fight. Not with liu. And of course i really want to see joe using chief gear in the next fight.
@@ininama5761 you predicted it perfectly
Season 2 is amazing and is greatly underrated.
After every episode I'm just more and more entertained!
Nomad is so underated. An absolutely beautiful story of redemption.
The last episodes have me so much "Joe is going to die" vibes, that I watched till the very end of the last episode
I agree I also loved the first season and now I also love this second season even more and the battle for recovery and redemption I'm excited where this show will go. To me the rest of the show will tell us where gearless Joe now Nomad's path is headed either down the same endless lost road or the path of redemption and hard work.
Man, I really wanted to see a match between chief and joe again.
MegaloBox 1 was already amazing for me, but Nomad, as a latino, hit very deep. I still can't believe the amazing story they told in this anime and the fact that so few people watched it. It is now in my Top 5

The first episode of this season had me a bit disappointed because it kind of completely undermined the happy ending of the first season, but also intrigued to find out just what had happened.
What came after that though... I am glad I stuck around for it.
Megalo Box will always have a very special place in my heart
The BES project was such an interesting concept , megalobox clearly spent some time in the gym
This was such an unexpectedly emotional anime.
I absolutely love this arc. The culture that I been in and experience is so spot on. Absolutely fantastic!
there is also one more thing that I would like to add to the stray dog's parallel in the story to joe that when he buried the stray dog he wrote NOMAD on its tombstone symbolizing that his nomad version his dead and he will return back to being gearless joe

👍You did a great job describing what makes Megalo Box 2 special. I love this new season. It's sad, yes, but hopefully some characters achieve their needs and wants at the end.
Megalobox to me feels like something made by adult swim
This is what western animation could be
I actually went and watched the first season just because of how much Nomad interested me.
Also, yeah, aside from Nomad, Odd Taxi was the first seasonal anime I started because I knew how underrated it would be. Everyone needs to watch it.
Waiting for episode 13 and went back to season 1 to get the feels for the final episode of Nomad, can't wait 🥊
Beautiful as expected mr.Value, welcome bacc. Manly tears are being shed shed this season.
It was unsettling foreshadowing when Chief says, “I’m scared to fall asleep”
Welcome backkkkk
Underrated video
The god has returned
welcome back!!!! great analysis of this first 4 episodes, really nomad is overcoming the original. will you be making a video about Godzilla Singular Point? it’s showing to be an excellent Science fiction. Mainly how you deal with your plot, even without deepening your characters
The final episode is fucking incredible
Megalobox 2 is such an underrated show in 2021.
Joe was is in denial, anger, bargaining, depression
He needed acceptance to move on
I have NO idea how this season ends -- it feels like there's way too much to wrap up in another 5 episodes. I'm expecting a cliffhanger into season 3
Show just ended and wow it is awesome damn
its masterpeice
Fantastic video.
When you achieved your goal what now after preparing everything you had for your goal u never had a future u planned to have basically what all mc usually gets
6:39 wasn't it mac who said that?
Yea lol it was Mac not chief
I loved megalobox season 1 all of it i pinged it and thought the whole season was done and didn't think a second season would be necessary or would ever succeed if worked, but i wasn't even close to being right the second season was incredible emotional i cried multiple times it was climactic nostalgic and there was many happy moments and loved the fights
Edit: i cried watching this video
Did I imagine seeing a new video pop up and then disappear? Is TH-cam being ridiculous again? 👀 I was all excited you were back. Gonna punch 'em... 🥊😒
Also, off topic. I just finished A Lull in the Sea and I'd love to see you do a video on it. I think I heard you mention it before. It was really beautiful. ❤️
Megalobox is so underrated!!
i advice everyone who loves megalo box to watch Ashita No Joe (Tommorow's Joe) it's spiritual prequel
Megalo references ashita alot.
Yo really loved this, would you consider doing a part two on the stuff you couldn't get to as well as the last arc of nomad?
Anime of 2021
This anime has come to join my top 10 all time great anime . .
Megalobox 2 is EASILY 1 of the top 10 anime ever produced. It's an absolute masterpiece.
Yeah I have been watching and the tone shift is crazy. Very enjoyable sequel
Also glad your back
Oh man i missed ur videos
6:34 that wasn't chief that was mac watching joe fight on thay screen.
megalobox season 2 e by far the best anime of this season.
Gonna wait your review after seeing Megalo Box Nomad finale
Wasn't that Mac watching the fight at the start of nomad?
Yup, but back when this vid was made it wasn't clear
Yo WTF. I had no idea Megalobox had a 2nd season and I thought it just ended after season 1. There were little to no exposure for this.
@@11MAXI Exactly. I can't believe a show like this went so far under the radar.
@@Hope4NewDay1 how did you feel about s2 i liked s2 more than 1
6:35 that wasn't chief that was mac
Was just gonna comment that, like did the guy even watch the last few episodes 🤣
there is this significant parallel between mac rosario and chief no? for some reason i see that the two characters are incredibly similar, something to do with the hummingbird i suppose, or maybe its their ethnicity
10/ 10 video. joining your discord
Hey is it just me that all the videos disappeared from the channel
Does anyone know what happened?
@@nithinnk1980 check his Twitter
It wasnt chief who was in the first scene, it was mac
But the fact it was mac, it actually makes mac an even more interesting character
Interesting point that Mac ended up being viewed as a embodiment of chief in Joe’s eyes by the end of the season as well. So I’m some way he wasn’t wrong about that being chief at first.
Why did you unlist all your videos?
I think the guy in the beginning claiming to not belong in the ring is Mac time
Please give "To Your Eternity" a shot
It deserves it
Bro where can i watch this
Hmm
TH-cam keeps deleting my comment s/i/m/p/l/y/a/w/e/e/b/./t/o or a/n/i/m/e/k/i/s/a
Megalobox nomad 10/10👌🤩
Question: what the hummingbird mean? Like what does it symbolize?
Freedom
They said in the show that it symbolizes where your home is something like that
To me, the anime was about how you can never loose everything, so all that remains of you will always be your home, no matter how lost you are
So the bird represents that specific idea of "home" as something that follows you wherever you go
I think season 2 had more depth to it than season 1. Both are great but season 2 was more of an emotional rollercoaster.
Please do a Vid on ODDTAXI!
The Comment Section on Nomad is fun, baptizing Joe, new titles each episode
I just finished s2 and i kinda feel rly sad
Where can you watch season 2 cant find it anywhere

I loved season one. I didn't like season 2. I stopped watching after a couple of episodes
