The reason characters shout out their moves is because in Manga it takes a lot to show exactly what is happening every time, so the first time you show the full attack and say what it is, then from then on you can say the name and have a single action shot from it, and people can fill in the blanks of what it looks like in their mind. Then when Shonen anime started, they didn’t remove it from the anime since the names were iconic from the manga, so we have that now.
@@litewrk8655I saw it in an article specifically about it, but I can’t remember if it actually quoted a mangaka or someone in the anime industry. It’s been a while since I first saw it, but it’s stuck with me since it makes sense.
that’s pretty much it. it’s also why the trope of characters explaining their abilities became so prevalent. as an aspiring mangaka myself, trying to convey abstract powers through motionless art is difficult without some kind of context.
This podcast was my intro to Danny like a year ago, and Nick was right. He’s one of the funniest people on earth, and a savage. This podcast is for sure a bright point in my week
13:27 I think that speaks to his confidence in his relationship. When you know you don’t have to worry, you don’t really care if people try. It’s mostly funny.
One of the funniest moments this last year for me was when Nick got Danny with the Imagine Dragons these nuts across his chin lmao Top funniest imo was when Nick opened the first spaghetti gift and Santa Danny’s response was “Oh you’ve been a very good boy this year!” 😂😂😂
To Danny: while Pokemon saying their names is stupid, the dumbest thing to ever happen in the Pokemon anime was in the 3rd gen, Ruby and Sapphire seasons. He literally used an electric attack on his own Pikachu and Swellow (A FLYING TYPE THATS WEAK TO IT) in the middle of a gym battle and instead of it killing the bird, IT BECAME GOLDEN ARMOR. Literally doesnt make sense at all. The dumbest moment by far
Actually that was a result of a translation error. In the original Japanese version there was no "golden thunder armor", but instead it was Ash taking advantage of the fact his Swellow had the Ability Guts, which powers up your Attack if that Pokemon has a status effect. So by giving paralysis to his Swellow he upped its attack combined with Pikachu added support it was actually a risky yet devastating team combination. Crazy I know but, then again it would not be Ash if he did not use an off the wall strategy. Sadly it did not get carried into the English dub at the time and thus the rest is history.
7:23 as someone who writes manga, the main reason that I’d have my character yell out their attacks, is so that the viewer knows whats going on/which attack is being used and what to expect from that attack.
Can we fix the problem where Nick's camera focuses on the box they run all the cables through as a present for 1 year of this podcast? Other than that, happy one year!
I CANT BELIEVE IT IVE WATCHED EVERY EPISODE OF THE POD SINCE CAME OUT EVERY WEEK NO MATTER WHAT I DIDNT MIS IT I REMEMBER WHEN YOU GUYS USED TO ONLY DO 1 HOUR EOISODES AND IT WASNT ENOUGH TIME ANY LOVE YOU KEEP IT UP FOR ANOTHER YEAR.and also this is how i found danys chanell through the pod bc i watched nick anways love u guys
Been here for every episode every week, I was grateful y’all made this. Enjoy the long episodes, I have long drives to work/school so the longer the better. Best of luck for another year!!
Bro this opening is so good! "I dropped the camera!!" Also, no way they're drinking soju. Really didn't wanna be drunk, I guess. I don't understand why my people made this stuff, honestly.
@@billwooten5263exactly, that’s why I only drink everclear because that will make me drunk the fastest. You know people don’t just drink to get smashed right? Getting a little buzzed and joking with your friends is why people drink more often than not, soju is perfect for that, it tastes good and you can take your time getting drunk with your friends.
@@Blacktoothoneil I'm not sure who pissed in your Cheerios but your fighting ghosts. I wasn't insulting Soju lol. I was explaining what the comment meant to those asking 'huh'. But keep going off it's entertaining 🍿
13 minutes in and I know this is gonna be an episode for the history books. Also the Danny story with the dude at the club is by far one of the funniest things either of these 2 have done
Wolf isnt going to run into sword, they are pack animals, they wont attack till your flanked, and they will each lash out, and keep at semi safe distance, and collapse on you. If you manage to stab them you should watch Grimgar Fantasy of Ash, the sword likely to get stuck or have issue getting back out.
Never thought I'd hear talks about drinking and cocaine LOL amazing; time to do a few lines (in game ofc) and finish this podcast! Anyhow great content as always guys. I kinda wish during the drinking game, that I knew what the truths/lies were after the guesses were wrong lol. Only got these for some of them but great time anyhow!
I wish characters using broken or chipped weapons becomes more frequent, thats what made Meliodas interesting to me at the beginning, like the this dude is so powerful that having a regular sword would be cheating.
This podcast has been my favorite thing to watch each week, thank you for all the laughs and here’s to another year. Also my favorite joke so far has been that time Danny was making a joke about people who think the big 3 was a subjective thing and he said if you disagree with my big 3 you can suck on these (his balls). Nick then says you can suck on my big 2, Dan was like your running circles around me today Nick and then says “Your fucking me Nick, YOUR FUCKING ME” while Nick falls into hysterical laughter.
53:16 Winry and May are great characters! I agree they’re not the best, but they’re still pretty great characters. May was our introduction into alkehestry (excuse my awful spelling) she also helped out a ton in the first fight against father. And without May Alphonse would have been able to save Ed. May also is interesting as a character where she has a similar story to ling. She’s trying to find the secret to immortality to save her clan. Winry is a good character because she is the catalyst to scars arc. She is the core to Ed’s arc. She helps her parents murderer because she knows that’s the only way to save everyone. But still doesn’t forgive him. Which I think is an amazing moment in the anime. Winry is essential to the plot as is May. Sure they aren’t the best but they are still so important to the story. TLDR: Winry and May are amazing and important characters.
Also, Wolves have been known to kill Bears. They don't just go after the weakest. Thats just usually the most efficient strat, but if it comes down to hit Wolves will throw with most things.
I need to drink with Nick sometime....I feel like it would be a fairly equal footing and a great time! I obviously need Danny there to keep us level and for shenanigans. I could talk Naruto all dayyy.
Tbf, ichigo’s alway’s been a scrapper. That time he called 5 ambulances for those dudes who messed with chad really showed how he’s kinda always been a different breed, which eventually is explained by his heritage
i just wanna say... regarding the legendary trios in all gens.. the one in gen 3 is the titans/regis, REGICE, REGIROCK, and REGISTEEL... i think Danny has a point about the legendary trios in all gens but i really like the birds, goofy designs and all
So the thing about Ed in FMAB, I think he cares more about getting Al's body back than he cares about getting his own limbs back. I think he humors Al by saying "Lets get OUR bodies back", but really, if it turned out that he could never get his arm back, he couldn't care less.
We need to have Danny watch some nature documentaries. Wolves can take out bears. Deer antlers can pierce straight through you, deer hoofs could cave in your chest.
Nobara is a cool character but the thing is she doesn't have a clear goal like yuji and fushiguro. But that is more because she is like a character who already completed her arch and is more guiding her classmates. Like she did with juyi teaching him when not to care with her whole bus metaphore. Even though the assistents and gojo should be the adults of the group but since they don't come with in to battle very often. None of them are the real leaders calling the shots because they trust in eachother and strategise togheter. But I see her as the leader.
The reason characters shout out their moves is because in Manga it takes a lot to show exactly what is happening every time, so the first time you show the full attack and say what it is, then from then on you can say the name and have a single action shot from it, and people can fill in the blanks of what it looks like in their mind. Then when Shonen anime started, they didn’t remove it from the anime since the names were iconic from the manga, so we have that now.
I can believe that.
I don’t know how true this is, but it makes enough sense for me to take it as a fact 😂
@@litewrk8655I saw it in an article specifically about it, but I can’t remember if it actually quoted a mangaka or someone in the anime industry. It’s been a while since I first saw it, but it’s stuck with me since it makes sense.
Makes sense. Thanks for the fact
that’s pretty much it. it’s also why the trope of characters explaining their abilities became so prevalent. as an aspiring mangaka myself, trying to convey abstract powers through motionless art is difficult without some kind of context.
Danny asking his girl if she wants to dance with another dude is insane 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Be honest not surprising
@@P1nheadlarry. Quit hating
Dannys confidence in his fighting skill is truly baffling and hilarious. I love the podcast, never change 😂
Nick: “I’m not an alcoholic”
Also Nick: *gets every question right but then “mental blenders” himself into drinking anyway*
Shabbat Shalom everyone
I’m not even 30 minutes in, and this is already my favorite episode. Thanks for doing this, I’m obsessed
“That camera falling is preposterous and not an appropriate consequence to me falling” got me so hard lol
This podcast was my intro to Danny like a year ago, and Nick was right. He’s one of the funniest people on earth, and a savage. This podcast is for sure a bright point in my week
Wholeheartedly agree with you.
Likewise
Same
The way this episode was an absolute train wreck on drunken goofiness killed me 😂
13:27 I think that speaks to his confidence in his relationship. When you know you don’t have to worry, you don’t really care if people try. It’s mostly funny.
Every 52 episodes is actually perfect for "Otaku New Year"
Drunk pod is the best thing to ever happen, we need these for holidays
All Holidays!!!
The honey sticks bit not being in the bits draft is insane
God bless Stank for the triple take on the fall❤
Stank is amazing
1:09:16 the fall
My fav bits were the frog type beat, the ding ding ding and Danny’s honey sticks bit. Oh and I love that you guys decided to do the drunk episode
The edit of Danny falling made me laugh SOOOOO fucking hard Stank I wasn’t ready lmao The hair flopping over and over haha
Drunk pod! Drunk pod! Drunk pod! 🍻
Danny's thirst trap was not necessary after that shot glass sneeze
56:30
Right
First time comment but that start was HILARIOUS and exactly what I needed in my life for anime podcasts
I’ve binged all of Otakus anon until now and its been the best time ❤❤

“I swear I’m gonna lunge” is the best thing I’ve ever heard 😂
It hasn’t felt like it’s been a year already. Been watching y’all since, and it’s been my fav podcast since. 🤝🏼🔥

Oh this is what I needed today. Thank you, gentlemen for blessing my day
Happy 1 year fellas!! I’m excited for the next 52 episodes!
Definitely feels like drunk pod needs to be a monthly deal.
i was honestly surprised that it's been a year already! i've been watching since the beginning, it's been so much fun so far :)
Can we fix the problem where Nick's camera focuses on the box they run all the cables through as a present for 1 year of this podcast? Other than that, happy one year!
I don’t think I could pick a favorite ep of the podcast, but this episode was so good had me dying the full way thru. Congrats on a year!!❤️
Absolutely love the series! I look forward to it every week.
Love this damn pod 1 year in jeez
I CANT BELIEVE IT IVE WATCHED EVERY EPISODE OF THE POD SINCE CAME OUT EVERY WEEK NO MATTER WHAT I DIDNT MIS IT I REMEMBER WHEN YOU GUYS USED TO ONLY DO 1 HOUR EOISODES AND IT WASNT ENOUGH TIME ANY LOVE YOU KEEP IT UP FOR ANOTHER YEAR.and also this is how i found danys chanell through the pod bc i watched nick anways love u guys
By far the best opening yet😂😂Danny is a beaut😂😂

Immediately subscribed from this episode. Love you boys
Bro this opening is so good! "I dropped the camera!!" Also, no way they're drinking soju. Really didn't wanna be drunk, I guess. I don't understand why my people made this stuff, honestly.
Huh
Soju is awesome
@@Sosa_freedSoju generally isn't very strong comparatively to other alcohol choices.

Danny falling is a highlight of the new year when are we gonna get podcast highlights
Much better than the normal pod, and I enjoy the normal pod
13 minutes in and I know this is gonna be an episode for the history books. Also the Danny story with the dude at the club is by far one of the funniest things either of these 2 have done
As a fellow soju enjoyer, I love grapefruit and grape flavors
I believe that comedian you was talking about in the cold open was Richard Prior 😂

Jesus already a yearthe only podcast I enjoy listening too I love y’all both
Porgs are actually really popular with little kids and have sold a ton of merchandise
I need to drink with Nick sometime....I feel like it would be a fairly equal footing and a great time! I obviously need Danny there to keep us level and for shenanigans. I could talk Naruto all dayyy.
Congrats on one year guys, and cheer's to the next
I always assumed anime shout out attacks cause they generally come from mangas and that makes it a little easier to tell what's going on.
Drunk pod is hilarious, you boys are killing it
1:52:27 Danny, look into The Faraway Paladin. Very Good
Tbf, ichigo’s alway’s been a scrapper. That time he called 5 ambulances for those dudes who messed with chad really showed how he’s kinda always been a different breed, which eventually is explained by his heritage
This was the highlight of my day and I think it would be on any day
Watching this months later and Danny is going to love wistoria
Nick I drink, socially, then proceeds to talk about binge drinking. Danny, “this isn’t going away you think.”
Yappy 52nd episode gentleman!! You both do a great job 👍
*Happy
1:15:25 isn't the Statue of Liberty French made?
I kid you not this is the best anime podcast episode I have ever seen. I was laughing for 2hrs😭
“Kaguya” “i was going to call her Kooji Gooji” 😂
i just wanna say... regarding the legendary trios in all gens.. the one in gen 3 is the titans/regis, REGICE, REGIROCK, and REGISTEEL... i think Danny has a point about the legendary trios in all gens but i really like the birds, goofy designs and all
Drunk pods should be a monthly thing 😂
Love Nick immediately jumping on the Gloopy Dooperson train
These two are hilarious. Nick is hilarious intoxicated.
I’ve been watching since episode 1 and the Socrates bit was hilarious
So the thing about Ed in FMAB, I think he cares more about getting Al's body back than he cares about getting his own limbs back. I think he humors Al by saying "Lets get OUR bodies back", but really, if it turned out that he could never get his arm back, he couldn't care less.
drunk pod drunk pod!!!!! love this episode so much XD
56:30 Just skip here for the free show
"Ethiopia is in the 70s right now" it is 2016 in the Ethiopian calendar
Okay so I shot a littttlllleeee wide
@@NCHammer23 danny got drunk just reading the word "shot" in your comment
1:43:45 Danny is just talking about Meliodus
One thing I never thought I'd hear referenced on this podcast in the yard thats crazy
Nick is cracking a apple long before Danny beats up 2 wolves. 😂
You guys are the best! Definitely do another drink episode!
“I mean I’m not Jewish “ has me in tears😂😂😭😭😭😭
We need to have Danny watch some nature documentaries. Wolves can take out bears. Deer antlers can pierce straight through you, deer hoofs could cave in your chest.
46:44 soild kaiba impression
Brooooooo id love to drink with the boys but at least I get to vibe to them while I'm working
That yelp at 55:59 😂
Trash taste would never be trashed for an episode
Did you mean thrashed
*THE CONCEPT OF MUSIC SAYS I'M WINNING*
best pod
Best start to a video ive ver seen XDD
You guys should check out anime north in Toronto in may, always a pretty fun time
So we need to officially have one episode a month of you guys getting drunk on different alcohols beers and wines
Nobara is a cool character but the thing is she doesn't have a clear goal like yuji and fushiguro.

i'm normally an audio listener DOES PODKNIFE JUST SIT THERE? that's So Much
Drinking with you guys while pregaming before I go out 😂 tonight should be fun
Danny pull up the lyrics for the op/ed for Link Click with the animation. It’s a whole story in itself which is crazy
By far my favorite part is when Nick retorts that lions eat "fucking cantaloupes".
Yall being buzzed is something I will cherish 😂😂😂😂
DRUNK POD???? LETS GOOO
Yuhhhh
Idk how on earth you guys are so entertaining love you guys love all your anime takes if I had the money I would be a member on all your channels
