Hello there, my crowd! Welcome to my Weekly Musings: Orange Edition.
[I ❤ JAPAN] -- [I ❤ THE COLOR RED] -- [I ❤ CELESTIA]
Feel free to leave a video request. Your video will eventually be featured in a future Weekly Musings entry!
Don't blame me for being late, the evil wizard did it!
...Okay, it was my fault. Sorry.
Let's talk about last week, my crowd.
I guess the biggest thing that happened was that I had to resubmit an order form. I did it last week, to get a replacement part for my chair, but the order didn't go through for some reason. So I did it again and it got through this time. Was a little upset when someone contacted me, asking if I had tried using the height-adjusting handle. That's about as annoying as tech support asking if you've tried "turning it off and back on first".
But whatever, I acted nice and explained the situation further. So they'll be sending me a replacement part soon enough.
Let's see... Random news... Meat Loaf and Louie Anderson died. I got a much-needed haircut after a long wait!
Saw trailers for Cuphead and Moon Knight. And I'm attempting to fix some strange plumbing issues I've run across. Hopefully it's nothing major.
GRIDMAN!
I've begun my journey into the original Gridman, so here are my thoughts on the first 6 episodes. To start, bonus points To Shout for including both translations of the show's title. However, minus points for not translating the theme songs nor the next episode previews, as well as lazy translation moments in general. I've seen Episode 1 a few times, but it's nice to have an official translation. Episode 1 leaps right in, but since the plot is simple enough, you're not going to feel overwhelmed. I like how they show they're not afraid to go a little darker than the American equivalent (the first place attacked was a hospital) even if the human supporting the main villain is kind of lame, but also the early 90's special effects are in full affect). Episode 2 goes full Digital World to explain how this story works, as well as explaining some other details the first episode didn't have time for, and we see that Kahn Digifer is draining malice from the human host like a puppet. Episode 3, holy moly! They are actually acknowledging the monster attacks in the media! Even if it's in a small way, it's still nice to see. Episode 4, Khan Digifer is leaving messages in the real world and his human host is learning to make better monsters. Episode 5, Gridman gets his signature weapon, and we learn Khan can recall his monsters before being defeated. Thank goodness the others were destroyed, or they might have protested. Episode 6, FINALY! A character that doesn't dismiss wild fantasy ideas because he realizes his own life is a wild fantasy! Upgrading old monsters is a thing, Gridman's weapon got upgraded, and guardian Electron Animals are a thing too. However, this Spirit of Sound character feels like something from the 80's or earlier.
Zenkaiger 44: Take The Treasure & Run!
Well, it finally happened. After searching for so long, the pirates found SD World and liberated it from Tojitendo. While I am happy for these characters, this was not the ending I expected. Why are Ricky and Cutanner still SD? By the rules of the show, they should be back to normal by now, even if they acknowledge how weird it is and have the pirates search for a solution. It seems like a waste of potential to have Stacey do nothing to help the pirates defeat SD World. I fail to see how he and Gege are connected in bringing out the SD World monster, unless they somehow did a mind swap thing? And while it was sad to see them go, I get the feeling we're going to see the pirates again real soon.
ReVice 11: Broken Family Values!
The episode hasn't even reached its OP theme yet, and I all ready have so many thoughts! I am surprised they let Daiji/Live fight on the front lines without any disciplinary action for what Kagero did. I like that they are justifying the need for multiple Riders. And it seems despite learning a lesson, Ikki/Revi is going to learn the same lesson all over again with his sister. … At least, that's what I want to say, but after watching the rest of the episode, it seems Sakura's bleeding heart for others is causing her to make a lot of stupid mistakes. Not that she's alone in this, Ikki and the rest aren't doing a good enough job reassuring her that they'll save the instructor and her son, let alone doing a good job of properly acknowledging Sakura herself. Still, she does have good intentions. Makes me wonder if those honorable intentions made her first transform attempt a failure... This is why you test your devices out before hand, ladies and gentlemen.
That's it for now, my crowd.
Take care, of yourselves and of business.
I never expect it, and it always surprises me when it happens. Here's a rather good animation from mashed called "Sonic vs Robo".

@TomDaBombMLP Thank you.
@Pastel Heart There's a lot of characters named Sakura these days.
And yes, Toei Sonic is awesome. I wish Toei would make more Sonic animations. ... Should I see this MV?

THE 1st PLACE WINNERS ARE: @Rising Dusk & @Stone Cold Steve Tuna

The answer was A, "Watch out." Furthermore, the trick part is that some of the lyrics were altered. One of those alterations was a typo; completely unintentional on my part. Silly me!
Also, sorry this came out so late. I got so busy and distracted on Friday, I just ran out of time. Hopefully there won't be a repeat of that next week.
Take care, my crowd.
Arrgfargafarg is eternal.
