Europa, Ganymede, and Io are open for asks!
ASK: Honestly Pali, don't waste your time on that dick. He doesn't deserve to be a part of your life if all he'll do is treat you like trash.
PALI: I agree. Obviously going our separate ways was working. I'll be sure to return to the status quo... right after I find out where he's going. And maybe beat some answers out of him. Dialga, why is he going all the way out here? Oh, he stopped?
AEON: Hello, wildcat. We take it everything has been running smoothly on your end?
ORCHID: Ugh, more or less. Found something that could lead me to my lost memories. Went through hell to get it, though..
PALI: Is he... is he talking to someone!? Oh Dialga has he actually gone mad?
AEON: Be wary, it is dangerous to fixate on the past too often. Let's see what you've brought us today.
[Orchid used RE:integrate]
PALI: Wha... is... is that a RIFT!?
AEON: We're surprised we haven't already found something like this. Where did you find it?
ORCHID: Some old mew temple. I don't even wanna get into the shitshow that turned out to be.
AEON: We see. Then this should be no issue to collapse.
[AEON used ?????. It was super effective!]
PALI: What the bloody hell? Did Orchid just open and collapse a rift?? Since when could he do that?
AEON: Thank you for bringing this to us, wildcat, but it seems that we both should take our leave. Seems that you're not alone.
[AEON has fled]
ORCHID: SHIT! I've been followed!
[EUROPA used Fling. EUROPA flung her light orb!]
ORCHID: GRAAAAAAAH!!!
[ORCHID is paralyzed! It can't move!]
EUROPA: SEE! I TOLD YOU GUYS!!
PALI: -thinking- Oh no, that voice...
EUROPA: I TOLD U SMTH WAS WEIRD ABT THEM!!
GANYMEDE: Yes yes, you've told us many, many times. Despite how poorly you've described it.
EUROPA: Um, how abt a thank u Eura??? U literally never wouldve found them w/out me??? Theyve been givin suuuper off vibes ever since I saw them! And BAM! They just made a rift!
IO: mmm... but did you like... need to paralyze them...? seems kinda... um... cruel... i guess...?
EUROPA: Wut was I sposed 2 do? They woulda ran if I confronted them!
IO: yeah... i guess youre right. their soul is... like... super janked up and stuff... never seen nothin like it before...
GANYMEDE: I agree. Perhaps it's best if we take it to Mother. She should know how to sort this out.
EUROPA: Fine. But Im takin the credit 4 this 1.
[EUROPA, GANYMEDE, and IO cast a Transplanar Mirror Warp spell. EUROPA, GANYMEDE, and IO have fled]
PALI: Arceus... they're going to take him to mum. -inhale- Nope. Not my problem. He got himself into this mess, he can get himself out.

Classicaloid 19 | ACCA 6 - 7 | SGRS 20 – 21 | Nanbaka 21
Not many people use faxes anymore…
It wasn’t just one Hasshie, it was two! Two, I tell you!
There’s an adorable little heart in the title.
Rotten-who?...Oh, okay. Rottenmeier. (It said in the subs what the reference was about but I checked it up anyway.)
One of them was green and another orange! That wasn’t a “black swan” in the slightest! *laughs anyway*
When people say they “watch it for the plot”, they mean Liszt. Definitely Liszt.
It seems even the staff have their pairings. I thought Motz was paired with Beethes in the fandom though…that kinda sucks for all the shippers of that pair now, doesn’t it?
Ah! These pictures of Swan Lake are absolutely beautiful!!! If only the subs weren’t on top of them…
This is “The Power of Shipping: The Episode”. ‘Nuff said.
“Suspension bridge effect”.  It’s a strangely psychological concept for Classicaloid…
So tsundere vs tsundere only devolves into fighting. Gotta remember that.
Where’s Sousuke???
Does anyone ship Kanae x Beethes now…? Or can Beethes love anyone, with enough “effort” on his part?
(ACCA ep 6)
“Peshi-Rokkusu Train Accident”.
Cuprite?
The feathers look pretty, in a North American Indian sort of way.
Yakumo reminds me of Grossular and vice versa.
That green-haired one’s a woman?!
“He’s just like a girl.”
Qualm. Funny name for a man.
(ep 7)
Egrette is how Aigrette’s name is spelt in katakana. Therefore, it shouldn’t be a long I sound but rather a short E.
“Yuki no tama” literally means “snow ball”.
Dang, the food looks good as always but this time it actually looks real.
Oh, it’s Lotta! Kind of.
Oh! The purple bread at the bakery is actually murasaki imo (purple yam…so it should be either taro or sweet potato).
Lotta’s a horribly simplistic person. If I didn’t know any better, I’d say Natsume Ono-sensei was a man based on how Lotta’s characterised, but since I’m guilty of not characterising my character Amelie (One Wish They Never Wanted) better, I figure Ono’s a woman. I found an article on ACCA once that said Ono-sensei was a woman, anyway, so no disputes about the gender neutral name “Natsume” right now, ‘kay?
I seem to recall a sugary ball of dough that I’ve eaten, which is apparently called a “shayong”. Alternatively, it can be called something along the lines of “snowball”. It’s very oily and normally sold in paper bags as a result. It doesn’t have chocolate in it though.
Jean has some really large hands…
(SGRS ep 20)
“Speaking of which…”
Sometimes it’s hard to remember Shinnosuke is not actually Yota’s child…haha.
“Your life isn’t yours alone. Don’t even joke about quitting.” – Powerful words from Konatsu there. I have the feeling they could save someone’s life someday.
Those gingkos are probably CGI, but man, they look real.
“The inability to speak properly…it’s hell.” - Hmph, I should analyse this quote one day.
“Little sir”?...Oh, bocchama (young master). That should be the term they used.
Wowee, I never thought Yurie’s backstory would come up. Alsom I realised this is the present day, not the 70s…oops. I made the same mistake in my article (if you’re wondering which article exactly, it’s this one, but I’ve now edited my mistake out of it).
The style of Kiku’s rakugo has yet again been elevated, if that’s even possible. It’s otherworldly, even, but that may be because it’s a relic of time itself.
How old is Yota at this point in time?
Amanatto. IIRC Kinshiro likes it.
Oh wow. I never thought there would be that Yuri!!! on Ice-like twist in this show too! (I do have a problem with the fact Matsuda doesn’t look like he’s properly crying though.)
Seeing Yota in tears like this is heartrending…
(ep 21)
Mangetsu’s from Kyoto. (I forgot that.) That’s why it’s East-West.
Higashi no Tabi (Journey to the East). Sounds like a bad parody of Journey to the West.
Yakumo still hasn’t lost his edge. Nice to see that.
“SCARP”?
The ethics behind that revelation though…Higuchi, just how unethical can you be for the sake of art?!
So, say this was a supernatural show instead. Imagine Yakumo as a ghost, freely doing his rakugo. That would make him happier, but it would sure irk the living, LOL.
Note Yota’s not called “Third Generation” in the same way Yakumo is called “8th Generation”.
Bringing back Sukeroku from the dead in more ways than one. It’s not just spiting Yakumo, it’s inspiring him, right?
If you look closely at Konatsu’s fingers, they have bandaids on them. She must have practised long and hard for that to happen.
I don’t seem to recall when this boss man appeared first, so I can’t really put a younger face to “Kido Isao” (was it “Mr Boss Man” from ep 1? Certainly that guy had no respect for Yakumo the way this arrested guy does). Sorry.
(Nanbaka 21)
Nanbaka’s gotten to that “stand and deliver…lines” part of every show…that’s bad news.
It’s rare to see people animate eye blinks for non-dramatic effectthese days.
The problem with Nanbaka is like Aoharu x Kikanjuu, it has problems differentiating between drama and comedy, instead opting for a clear delineation between both genres. Dramedys don’t work too well for me, normally.
I wonder if this whole plot can really be resolved in 3 episodes…most of the second cour has been about cell 5, sure, but it’s dragging a bit.
The thing about this show is that while it is quite good at what it does, it’s only midpoint at what it does and doesn’t seem to use the unique Comico style of vertical manga to its advantage.
All these Journey to the West associations make me think about a “Mago Gosora” pun I saw on TV Tropes. It was from Dragon Ball.
Neurotoxin. Of course someone like Qi should know about that stuff.
