Episode 17

No Way

 

Takemichi finds out about Baji and Kazutora's past and realizes how hard it's going to be to bring Baji back to Toman

 

ONLY TOONAMI

[CorbeauKarasu]

Okay, so Kazutora's just...crazy, right?

[DangerMouse]

Yeah... "shopping"

[CorbeauKarasu]

so Mikey wanted the bike because his brother had one? or Mikey's brother was already planning to give him the bike...

[DangerMouse]

REMINDER: THIS GUY IS AN IDIOT

[CorbeauKarasu]

fucking got him in the head with the bolt cutters.

 

i remember Mikey mentioning his brother before, but i forgot in what context

Also, if anyone is interested, the tickets for the special Bleach theatrical showing have gone on sale.  You can go through Fathom's website, but I think it is cheaper to buy them from the theater's website.  At least it was for me through Cinemark.  

And there's no online purchase fee if you go to the theater in person to buy the tickets, but I had to cut grass at my cousin's house yesterday, so that wasn't doable.  Kinda silly to drive there just to buy tickets ahead of time anyway.

[ben0119]

Literally all of Japan's crime rate during this time period is accounted for by the gangs in this show. 😄

sort of. i thought i remembered that, but i wasn't sure

[CorbeauKarasu]

????

 

 

[CorbeauKarasu]

weren't you supposed to be the newest guy???

[ben0119]

See the evil gang leader guy looks like Shinichiro with his hair spiked up.  

Hah guess they aren't spies after all LOL.

And yep he won't be brought back. 😄

Or maybe there's yet another twist and the leader is Shinichiro with amnesia. 🤣

Baji is awesome hahahaha.  This guy is a clown.

[saito34]

Another rando??

[CorbeauKarasu]

you took a beating like that on purpose?

I was saying I didn't remember that.  Was the full line not shown before?

[DangerMouse]

Sneaky sneaky

[CorbeauKarasu]

[ben0119]

LOOOOL he is a spy after all WHAT.

[DangerMouse]

And killed by a dumbass

[CorbeauKarasu]

[CorbeauKarasu]

The second one would be the most hilarious if it was true, and you ended up being right hahaha.

[CorbeauKarasu]

dude needs to learn how to speak more assertively

[CorbeauKarasu]

again, how are you the vice-captain if they said you were the absolute newest toman member

[ben0119]

Mikey is a total psycho, threatening to kill Takamichi over this.  But we shouldn't be surprised.

[CorbeauKarasu]

again, quite a bit too far

[DangerMouse]

Dream on, daaaaamn lol

[DangerMouse]

His first potential ally?

[ben0119]

I think I figured out why the characters do such stupid shit in this show.  Reiji, the creator of Rent-a-Girlfriend, was recently asked in an interview why the story has gone on for so long with such little development (in so many words,) and he said it's because he doesn't want to make the characters do anything they wouldn't actually do. 

So basically, Rent-a-Girlfriend is a story about "realistic dumbasses," and Tokyo Revengers is the same way.  That's why we have seen such idiotic behavior from the characters and had the story needlessly dragged out.  But I deal with enough dumbasses in real life, I don't need whole ass animes about them haha.

And I am coining the "realistic dumbasses" term, if it hasn't already been coined. 😄 

[DangerMouse]

LMAO

[CorbeauKarasu]

i keep thinking of alternatives to this terrible plan.

 

Takemichi is a total loser in the future, right? so his future life isn't really worth preserving, yeah?

 

so just marry Hana right out of middle school and move away with her to the boonies, avoid all this future shite

[DangerMouse]

The regular Takemichi reaction

 

[CorbeauKarasu]

is this the guy who got stabbed or the guy who cried and ran away in the future?

[CorbeauKarasu]

ah, the stabbee

[DangerMouse]

What

[ben0119]

Takamichi must have even more of a death wish to say that to them, and I am surprised by how mild the reaction is from Draken and Mikey.

[CorbeauKarasu]

but now you're snitching. what'll he do to you over this?

[DangerMouse]
