00:00Hey everybody, crew at Blindwave. I'm Eric. I'm Calvin. I'm Aaron. And we're back with Kaguya-sama, Love is War.
00:07And the battles keep on coming. Yeah. Last time we had a couple very funny ones.
00:13Over the course of a French student council meeting thing or something like that.
00:20It was like an exchange. Yeah, I think it was like a French student council that came over.
00:27And anyway, they had some of that and it was ongoing and it still evolved around whether or not they
00:33will profess their love or not.
00:34Mm-hmm. Yep. And you got to be careful with the power of cat ears because they can really do
00:38something.
00:39Defended the hell out of him. So cute. Oh yeah, in defense. Yeah. And then claim something. I don't speak
00:45French.
00:51Summer uniform time! It's been super muggy lately too.
00:56These short sleeves are just so much breezier. I suppose.
01:03Oh god.
01:04I'm really stuck and I have no idea what to do.
01:08Oh no.
01:08The student council gives great advice on this sort of thing.
01:11I'm kind of the only person I can turn to.
01:13I want to break up with my boyfriend without hurting his feelings too much.
01:18I thought she'd still be in the honeymoon phase, but I guess she's already sick of him.
01:22Is she the opposite of the couple that the president gave advice to?
01:28What makes you want to split?
01:30Um, well, the day he said he liked me was really random.
01:34Yep.
01:34I don't really know how to act around him either.
01:37And it seems like we talk even less now than we did before.
01:41I feel really guilty about it.
01:43So rather than go on like this, I think we're better off breaking up.
01:46But it's not because you dislike him, is it?
01:49Not at all.
01:50I just don't know if I can describe my feelings for him as romantic.
01:54You know what I mean?
01:55Everybody possesses qualities that make them stand out in their own way.
01:58For example, he could be exceedingly smart.
02:01Or one of the most honest men you've ever met.
02:08That was one for her.
02:11I've said to her.
02:12I've said to her.
02:13That description that hangs out with you would be...
02:15That is an importance.
02:16That is an important song.
02:18Next thing you know, he'll be living rent-free inside your head.
02:21And the more the two of you interact, the more you end up falling for him.
02:26I am here and I heard every last word.
02:28You did?
02:29It's no fair to have girl talk and not invite me.
02:33Especially when I have the skills of an ace.
02:35Love Detective Chica is here.
02:36Love Detective Chica.
02:38Still, you have a boyfriend, but you aren't quite sure how you feel about it.
02:41Is that right?
02:43Yeah.
02:43Is that right?
02:44It's lucky for you.
02:45I happen to come along then.
02:46I want you to picture your boyfriend mackin' hard and another girl right in front of you.
02:50Mackin' hard.
03:01Look at her face.
03:03You don't like the thought of him being with someone else because you want him all for yourself.
03:08And the more upset you get, the more upset you get, look how angry.
03:15I was worried that I might just be a cold person for not returning his feelings, especially
03:20since his confession seems so heartfelt.
03:22It's not too late.
03:23I can still give her some advice myself.
03:26This is a perfect time to put the Romeo and Juliet effect to the test.
03:29Those star-crossed lovers face countless obstacles, proving that a common enemy can bring people
03:34closer.
03:34A common enemy?
03:36Yeah, I don't think we have one of those.
03:38But you do!
03:39We all think there's a mighty enemy that we all must fight together!
03:42Oh my god.
03:43It's our society!
03:45The power!
03:47The power!
03:48Exploitation of the poor!
03:50Hang on!
03:50For the two of us to rebel against this corrupt society that I can't recommend you know!
03:54I love it!
03:55Burn it down!
03:56Better go and let him know the plan!
03:58You!
03:58Go!
03:59Please!
03:59Please spare your time or your change!
04:02Yes!
04:02Please!
04:03We donate!
04:05It's for a good kind!
04:06So both of them are already into philanthropy!
04:08What's in need?
04:09Huh?
04:09Who knew?
04:09There's money for feathers.
04:11You know what?
04:12I think that might be the ultimate way to rebel against society.
04:15Baby, please don't talk.
04:17Hmm.
04:19Hmm.
04:20Oh, the feathers they bought.
04:22President?
04:23They came to me asking for permission to fundraise off campus.
04:27And I could tell this wasn't just something they thought they'd do on a whim.
04:31Such drive.
04:32I can't help but support it.
04:35Funny thing is, I'm just as inexperienced as they are.
04:41Mm-hmm.
04:43Counting off on her fingers.
04:44Results for today's battle.
04:46Cogger, you lose this.
04:54No!
04:56Oh, dude.
04:56How do you manage that?
04:57He rolled a one.
04:58I hate when that happens.
04:59It's his own head.
05:02Oh, no!
05:03To be blunt, he's trash.
05:05He's delivered newspapers for years and works as a mover in the summer.
05:09Plus, he rides his bike 15 kilometers to school every day.
05:13He's strong, he's got...
05:14Yeah.
05:16Oh, God.
05:19How are you going to hit a ball when you hit yourself in the back of the head?
05:22In your face to hit the ball?
05:23We have volleyball in gym next week.
05:25Oh, God.
05:26I've got to get good enough to be considered average.
05:28Average.
05:29As if I do.
05:31Oh, God.
05:32You really are quite cute.
05:35Damn.
05:37Oh, God.
05:38Oh, God.
05:39Why are you here?
05:40I left something in the gym.
05:42This thing.
05:43Oh, no.
05:45How much did she see?
05:47It's over.
05:51That's what they mean by screaming internally.
05:58I can teach you how to serve if you want.
06:02Come on.
06:04Sure!
06:06See?
06:07Better than you.
06:08Why?
06:09By his standards.
06:12By his standards, yeah.
06:14You know, I might just agree to do it if a certain sourpuss said the magic word.
06:19Please.
06:20I need your help, but you want to.
06:22For sure.
06:23Without the word.
06:24Without the word.
06:27Huh?
06:28Huh?
06:29Huh?
06:30Huh?
06:30Huh?
06:31Huh?
06:32Huh?
06:32Huh?
06:33Huh?
06:34Huh?
06:34He just slapped himself in the face.
06:36It's so hard, too.
06:37I don't understand.
06:39That makes two of us.
06:41I aim for the ball and promptly smacked my own face.
06:44But first of all, you need to keep your eyes open when you serve.
06:47I could have told you that much.
06:49Glad we're on the same page, then.
06:51Hmm?
06:52Ah!
06:53Hmm.
06:55Hmm.
06:55Yeah.
06:56See?
06:57Nothing changed.
06:58I say we're clowns, you see?
07:00So don't stand there and lie straight to my face.
07:02That's a great shot.
07:03Oh, you're right.
07:04Oh, you're right.
07:06Okay.
07:06Start by just having you jump with your eyes open.
07:09I don't plan to go easy on you, so brace yourself.
07:12Let's do it.
07:13Trading montage!
07:15Trading montage!
07:16For three days, she trained her lost car, I mean, pupil, both morning and night.
07:21Her lost car.
07:23Considering where you started from, you've come a super-duper long way.
07:26I'm not done.
07:28I can stop.
07:30Turn.
07:31I'm not pushing yourself so hard over this.
07:33Because this is what it takes to look cool.
07:39Are you trying to look cool to impress somebody you like?
07:43Like?
07:43This isn't about her.
07:44It's about my pride.
07:46Oh, so you do like me.
07:47This isn't about her.
07:49Mm-hmm.
07:49A little slip there.
07:52Yeah!
07:53Oh.
07:55You did it!
07:56You did it!
07:57You actually did it!
07:58Lolly ball in anime?
08:00I've never seen that before.
08:01Yeah, right?
08:02Probably couldn't do a whole anime about it.
08:03No.
08:04It would probably be way too boring.
08:06Like one episode or like a third of an episode is enough.
08:09One week later.
08:21I'm the one who raced him.
08:24You what?
08:27Shirogane and Bujiwato win.
08:30Good job.
08:32Dang it.
08:34I don't know.
08:35We have to go back to that.
08:35Yeah, we'll have to read that again.
08:37I was told that the car got a flat tire, so I was planning to walk home.
08:41What if you get kidnapped?
08:44It's much easier to get rid of evidence on a rainy day.
08:47Is that true?
08:48Yeah.
08:49Shinomi is walking home in this?
08:50I mean, it's dead.
08:51Why?
08:52It gives me an idea.
08:53It's the rainy season.
08:54Oh, it washes things off.
08:56Umbrella sharing.
08:57Even the gloomiest time of year has its silver linings.
09:00What nonsense.
09:02Pathetically huddling together in the sad hope that they might bump shoulders.
09:06Sharing an umbrella is a subtle way to become more intimate with someone.
09:10It's also a subtle way to tell any observer to back the hell off because this one's taken.
09:16So she'll go along with the silver linings in that respect.
09:20First, person A is unprepared for the change in weather.
09:23For person B to make a move, person A has to first admit that they forgot an umbrella.
09:28However, she left my umbrella at home.
09:33No one has an umbrella.
09:34But if both person A and B happen to forget, there's no umbrella to share.
09:39Two people standing in the rain feeling very, very stupid.
09:43Oh, I didn't check the weather forecast.
09:45The storm kind of came out of nowhere, huh?
09:47They're both full of it.
09:49They, yeah.
09:50You can clearly see the folding umbrellas in their...
09:52They just don't, they can't be the first one to say, oh, actually I do have it.
09:56You wanted to get under my umbrella so badly, you lied about not having yours.
10:01How interesting.
10:03You really are quite cute.
10:05I can't.
10:06He can't.
10:07He can't.
10:07He can't.
10:07He can't.
10:08He can't.
10:08He can't.
10:08Wait, isn't her house full of servants?
10:11If there was car trouble, one of them would have packed through an umbrella for sure.
10:15In this dire situation...
10:17She doesn't say as bad as the wall.
10:18...the only way out is to expose your opponent's lie.
10:21First, your car gets a flat on a rainy day.
10:23Then you, the most meticulous planner I've ever met, forgets to pack an umbrella.
10:28What are you trying to say?
10:30Oh, nothing.
10:31I don't have enough information.
10:33Should I make a gamble?
10:34You plan ahead just as much as I do, if not more.
10:37I have my off days like anyone else.
10:39Yes, but you typically ride your bike to school, don't you?
10:42So, today you chose to take the train instead.
10:48Of course you take the train on a day like this.
10:52Who wants to ride their bike in the rain?
10:54The truth is...
10:57You saw that forecast.
10:59Of course you saw.
11:03Shirogane devised his umbrella plan within the last hour.
11:06Whereas Kaguya confirmed the weather report.
11:10Reinforced it with prayer.
11:14She made the flat?
11:15She made the flat!
11:16She did check the bike wreck.
11:18I guess I have no choice but to get soaked to the phone.
11:21Too bad.
11:23Oh, no.
11:24She brought one.
11:25Take mine.
11:26I have a spare in the classroom, so this one is all yours.
11:29I'll go get my other one.
11:30Now you have an umbrella.
11:31Now she has to offer to share it.
11:34So they both lose.
11:36I had him!
11:37Victory was so close I could taste it!
11:39You said you didn't have one with you.
11:40Well, now you do!
11:42Here!
11:43Eh!
11:44Wait, who'd you want to give it to you, though?
11:46Say I'm subletting it!
11:49I'm subletting it.
11:50How about if I just throw half of it?
11:56Oh.
12:07They're still holding the umbrella.
12:10It's a draw.
12:13Yeah, I love it not raining and they're still walking under it.
12:16Yeah.
12:17Oh, it's over.
12:19It's over.
12:20So you go back and count up all the other points.
12:24Oh, you're going to count the points?
12:25Yeah.
12:25So today we had a Kaigouya loses, Shiro, Gani, and Fujiwari win, and then a shared victory.
12:33Yeah, the middle one wasn't as much of a, the two of them.
12:37Not really.
12:37Like, there was a mention of being like, oh, do you want to look cool for somebody?
12:41Yeah.
12:41This has nothing to do with her, like that's what he said.
12:43Yeah.
12:43You know?
12:44Oh, you do like somebody, but it was just he didn't want to look dumb in front of the class.
12:47Sure.
12:48Trained to become average.
12:49I loved it.
12:51I want you to be good enough, not bad, right?
12:55And we also had a part that connected to a past episode this time.
13:00I mean, they've all kind of had like at least some connections, the same characters and stuff,
13:04but this was like, hey, in this episode, you know, what is it, Shirogane?
13:08Yeah.
13:08Helped this kid ask a girl out.
13:11You're right.
13:12In this one, we now have Shamiya being like, oh, here's how you can stay with him if you want
13:17to stay with him.
13:19I don't think we've had anything like that yet.
13:21So a lot more through lines happening as we go on.
13:23Yeah.
13:25A lot of times Rugrats, you know, like having multiple episodes, they didn't have any through lines really.
13:28It was just kind of like one-off episodes for a lot of it, you know?
13:32Yeah.
13:32So it just depends.
13:34I wasn't sure what we'd get out of this.
13:35But I do like Love Detective Chica.
13:38Yeah.
13:38Me too.
13:38No, that was good.
13:39I heard everything and I had to leave to go to the theater room to get this hat.
13:42And this pipe.
13:43And this pipe.
13:44That was funny.
13:47I like that a lot.
13:47I don't think I ever trained to try to be better at a game for gym.
13:52That's what it felt like, right?
13:54Yeah.
13:54I don't think I did either.
13:56No.
13:56I also didn't feel the need to like, need to look like I was good at everything.
14:02I knew some people that were like that.
14:04Yeah.
14:04I don't know if they trained to look what I think they were not focused on.
14:09Sure.
14:10I know Melanie always played out.
14:11I was like naturally decent at everything.
14:13Like I might not be good.
14:15Yeah.
14:15But I was at least average, you know?
14:16Like I wasn't like.
14:17I think that was the case for me.
14:18I mean, some stuff that's more cross-country than sprinting, I wasn't good at.
14:24Sure.
14:24But in high school, it was generally just, I'm taller and bigger.
14:29That'll count for something.
14:31Something.
14:32Please.
14:33I remember there were kids who were getting mad at me during gym because we were doing flag football.
14:40And I would also like, as running, I would also like, oh, you're coming to get me here?
14:44I'm going to spin.
14:45Yeah.
14:46And roll this way.
14:47Yeah.
14:47And it made it hard to get my flags.
14:49And they're like, I'm just going to tackle them.
14:50Because they couldn't get my flags.
14:51They were getting mad at me.
14:52That's awesome.
14:52But, man.
14:54I didn't play football.
14:55I played flag football.
14:56And it was fun.
14:56I could palm the dodgeball so I could, I'd have a dodgeball as a shield.
15:00Block it.
15:00Yeah.
15:01That's the way to do it.
15:02That's always good.
15:03That's the way to do that as well.
15:05You've got to have the shield.
15:07I always had fun with dodgeball.
15:10Melanie would get mad at, like, it was other things too.
15:12It would also be like, not mad might not be the right word, but annoyed.
15:16Like, banned.
15:17I remember, this one wasn't her necessarily, I guess.
15:20But in, like, elementary school, we had band.
15:24And everyone had an instrument and stuff too.
15:25And there was one time my teacher was like, why don't you guys all practice like Aaron?
15:28And I was like, shit.
15:30They're like, he doesn't practice.
15:31You don't practice?
15:32I'm like, not really.
15:34I'm like, she's like, damn it.
15:37That ruins what I was just saying about trying to get everyone else to practice.
15:39Why don't you just be naturally good like Aaron?
15:43Completely undermine her entire point.
15:45We were doing life, Melanie and people came over and they were trying to do sugar glass.
15:51And they were wanting to blow the sugar glass and try to make things so that it could fall and
15:54break, you know?
15:55And not be real glass and dangerous.
15:56Yep.
15:57Or at least not as dangerous, you know?
15:59Sure.
15:59It's more brittle, so it's not going to, like, you step on, you cut your foot or something.
16:02Sure.
16:02It's a soft brittle.
16:04Yeah.
16:04Not like a hard brittle.
16:06And they tried it for, like, I don't know, an hour or something like that.
16:09And I think we were on the phone trying to figure something else out and I was outside talking to
16:13them.
16:14When I came in, they had all given up.
16:16And then, like, I was like, well, I want to try.
16:18He's like, what did you guys have?
16:18Like, this, this, this.
16:19Okay.
16:20And I started doing it and messing with it.
16:22And I had made the first try the biggest one.
16:25It looked the best.
16:27It looked the best so far.
16:28And someone was like, Melanie, you said so.
16:31I guess she had said before.
16:33Like, if Aaron was in here, he'd do it first try.
16:36Oh, that's great, man.
16:38Fantastic.
16:38I'm sorry.
16:39Do you want me to just keep going or stop or what?
16:42But it was neat.
16:42You just, like, you heat it up and you would just, it was like melted Jolly Rancher was kind of
16:46like the stuff it was kind of made from.
16:49And then you just blow it like glass and just keep expanding it as it goes.
16:53And then you would roll it.
16:54Yeah.
16:55On, like, I forget what we had.
16:56I think it was like an upside down baking sheet or something like that.
16:59Metal.
16:59You just roll it along it and stuff, too, to help shape it and stuff.
17:03It's like what they did.
17:04Probably kind of like what they did with Fenton, you know?
17:05Yeah.
17:06No, I love watching master glass smiths do their craft.
17:12They're real good.
17:13It's crazy.
17:14It's like super hot shit, dude.
17:16You know, it's like orange on fire look.
17:18I had an uncle that worked over there that blew glass for many, many years.
17:21And he would tell me that, like, it's at least, like, once a month some new person just grabs the
17:27hot glass.
17:28Yeah, it's not glowing red anymore.
17:30It doesn't look hot on it, but it's getting greater than degrees.
17:34And they're gone.
17:35Damn.
17:36Yeah, I know, man.
17:37Damn.
17:38They quit.
17:39Yeah.
17:41Oh, man, that'd be terrible.
17:43All right.
17:44Well, it was less so much of a battle this time, but...
17:49Not as badly.
17:49Mainly the Umbrella one.
17:51Mm-hmm.
17:51But they weren't really in each other's, and then the Umbrella one was the first fight.
17:57Like, in the first one, it said Kaguya loses, but that doesn't necessarily mean that Shirogane wins, right?
18:04Well...
18:05It doesn't.
18:05I think it does.
18:08It does.
18:08Because it's an opposition sport.
18:13Like, if one team loses, the other team advances.
18:16Sure.
18:17Because we've had it before where they can both win.
18:19Yeah.
18:20We've had it where they can both lose.
18:21Does Kaguya lose the volleyball one?
18:24Maybe.
18:25And Shirogane, does he lose the first one?
18:29Could it be that Kaguya loses, so she gets a loss on a scorecard, but he doesn't get a win?
18:37I feel like it should just be like, if someone gets a win, they get a point.
18:40Yeah.
18:40And then you don't worry about losses, because you don't get a point for a loss.
18:43Okay.
18:44You know what I mean?
18:45And you do it like that.
18:46It's like, if you're doing tennis, if you lose that round, you don't get the point.
18:50The person who won the round gets the point.
18:52Okay.
18:52Right?
18:52Maybe do it like that.
18:53And then you don't have to worry about trying to track losses and wins, because sometimes it's...
18:57But Fujiwara wins, and they don't get anything, you know?
19:05Sure, but I don't know.
19:08You gotta put her on there, too.
19:10If Jack Kerr wins.
19:12I think it just depends how the narrator says it, too.
19:20Because sometimes they both lose, so neither of them get points.
19:25But if one of them loses, it insinuates the other one won, you know?
19:30Yeah, but in some of these situations, they're not even present to lose or win, you know?
19:34Like, it's not about them, necessarily.
19:37It'd be like in...
19:37Well, they should have...
19:39They should have planned ahead.
19:40It'd be like in Who's line.
19:41Like, he gives points to everyone else.
19:42So it's like, well, we're gonna take away points from Greg Groups.
19:44Like, he's not even here.
19:45It's like, ah, take it away anyway.
19:46Yeah, fucking fuck Greg.
19:48Yeah, but the points don't matter in that game, so they could.
19:52These don't matter, either.
19:53I know, but...
19:54It's just who wins these little battles, you know?
19:56It's still the point of it.
19:58It's like if you're in World War II and America won a battle against this country,
20:05it doesn't mean that this country also loses if they weren't involved, or wins,
20:10because they weren't involved in that part, right?
20:11Well, if they were allies, then, yeah.
20:14Well, in kind of a way, but who's...
20:17Shut up, Calvin.
20:18It doesn't matter.
20:18I'm just...
20:19I'm just saying.
20:21Just Switzerland.
20:22I just count the wins.
20:23That's how I do.
20:23Count the wins.
20:24Well, like I said, I'm gonna try to go back and see if I can count up the first three
20:28or
20:28so episodes and keep track.
20:30Okay.
20:31All right?
20:31All right.
20:32And I'll have that for next time.
20:35Tell you what, I won't have it for next time, because we do this two-a-week over at
20:38blindwip.com, and I don't have time between these recordings, because those people can
20:43watch the next one right now.
20:45All right.
20:46I can't get that information.
20:47Damn.
20:48I'm gonna start that false expectation, but I'll do it.
20:51Soonish.
20:53Soonish.
20:54Soonish.
