>>58804992>>58804998Nice.
>>58804998Why is Hikaru so rude? Inoue is fun.
>>58804992>>58804998Cool, are video messages like that going to be a regular thing now, or is it just for New year's?
>>58805018Probably just a one-time thing, they're presented as new year's greetings rather than episode promos.
>>58804969>the Girigiri DanceFor those unfamiliar with Kocchi no Kento, this is the newest fad in nipland right now:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jzi6RNVEOtAhttps://www.youtube.com/shorts/A9o7_z6b7KE
>>58805035I hate how actually catchy this is.
>>58804969Looks like they're still not done shilling Z-A
>>58805035Ah, that's what they're dancing in the preview then.
>>58804998They're really playing Kento up as a big deal, is he that much bigger than their usual guests?
>>58805100He's bigger than most guests, and he's also not on the show as promotion for some official Pokemon thing he's doing, which is why big name guests tend to be on.
Do we know what we're getting next week? Any cute girls?
>>58805150No info yet. We'll find out from the preview.
Not really a promo pic for today's episode, but Matsumaru posted this yesterday to plug the return of the show after the one week break.
>>58805162What Pokemon is Abareru-kun supposed to be dressed as?
>>58805170Mega Meganium.
>>58805179Oh yeah duh, of course.
I didn't realise the Japanese liked Bluey. As an Australian, that makes me quite happy.
>>58805194Started airing on TV Tokyo when they revamped the Sunday morning lineup and expanded Pokedoko to an hour, apparently.
>fuck yeah dinosaurs: the showI know I'd have loved this shit as a kid.
>>58805194The only bluey I've ever watched is the jp dub due to it airing a bit before pokedoko.
>>58805238Seems like it's fuck yeah dragons this week
>>58805252Even better.
It's time.
I remember listening to this dinosaur show's ending on youtube and there was a comment from a parent who said their kids would sing "kutsu kaese" (give back my shoes) instead of "kutsugaese" (overthrow) and now I always think of it whenever I hear the song.
Pokessu.
That's a nice and unique opening.
I had no idea what that was supposed to be.
That song really reminds me of the Gera Gera Po song from Yokai Watch.
>Mega Voltage themed merchBit outdated, isn't it?
Comfy
Today's guests, Yusuke Inoue
Kocchi kocchi
Oops.Today's guests, Yusuke Inoue...
>>58805296and Kocchi no Kento
This song is stupid catchy.
Inoue's costume is pretty good actually.
Abareru-kun did really well actually. Not so much the others.
Don't bully Matsumaru.
We definitely need more Abathio.
>random Liko and Nyarote scenesThat can do.
Sexy Liko legs
>>58805321It's the "prickly Nyarote" episode. It wasn't the best.
>>58805325Yeah, didn't recognize it at first.
Terabagos
This episode really shows how good an actress Hayashibara is.
That cat always has the best expressions.
I wish we got a scene of jealous nyarote tying liko up with her vines before she evolved.
Pussy power!
>>58805346We can still get that with Masquernya.
This episode wasn't the best, but I wish PM23 had more slow and comfy episodes like this instead of being so focused on driving the main plot forward so much.
It's Pikachu!
So when are they going to promote Z-A with cite girls in Taunie cosplay?
Was that shot of Momowarou in Diana's car new?
B, obviously.
>>58805363You'll get a fat man in Taunie cosplay instead.
Guess his favorite place is going to be a grassy one
>>58805363Lebanne cosplay please Aren't they into those types of outfitsIt's literally right there
>>58805369That'd be fun too.
Blue is a pretty unique game to start with.
>>58805374Lmao
He really likes punning off that song title.
Next week: Ami Kikuchi
>>58805389and Long Coat Dandy
Interesting choice by Hikaru.
Surprised ninty hasn't forced them to exclusively shill the switch 2. Abareru-kun is using the base switch.
These multiplayer battles look like fucking messes, this is actively making me less interested in the game.
>>58805394*Long Coat Daddy
>>58805395Didn't pay off very well, she's getting destroyed.
Punishment for Hikaru!
I like Hikaru's character, it's cute.
Momowarou
Forgot we actually saw the answer to the quiz question in the preview. Still very obvious though.
About time we get some Hikaru bullying.
CUTE
>>58805420
That's the most soulful Pokemon Center yet
I love how Pokemon is absolutely everywhere in Japan.
Fucking perfect.
>>58805434
Fucking slowpoke finally made it.
Only 10 minutes left, this is going to be a short cooking segment.
Udon is good shit, this is making me hungry.
Not sure if I'd really want to eat udon stomped on by some sweaty socked chef.
>>58805451It's the same as wine made from stomped grapes, kind of.
>Sanugi Udon with Cute Yadon Oage
Not the best episode. The udon segment at the end was nice, but Z-A makes for such boring tv
Next week: Long Coat Daddy
>>58805471and Mega Meganium-style Pancakes with Ami Kikuchi
>>58805474She cute
>>58805474
>>58805479
No summary for next week?
>>58805489No, they didn't post one yet. It's why we didn't know what next week would be about until they showed the preview.
>Cute Yadon Age Sanuki Udon>by Ryogo Matsumaru, Hikaru Takahashi, Abareru-kun, Kaede-chan and Sakura-chan>Ingredients: 400g of wheat flour, 200cc of salt water, plastic bag, Yadon Age and your personal favorite condiments >Mix the flour and salt water thoroughly, then form the dough into one big lump and place it on the middle of a large plastic bag.Squeeze the lump into a flat oval with your hands, then take the oval from the bag, roll it into a log shape, then put it back on the plastic bag and squeeze it flat again. This time, fold a third of the flat dough over the middle third, then the last third over those two, then put it on the plastic bag and squeeze it flat one more time. Take one corner of the dough and wrap it over the center, then knead one more time. Finally, put the dough inside the plastic bag and stomp it flat with your feet. Next, take the dough out of the bag, roll it completely flat with a rolling pin, then fold it over itself for easier cutting and cut the dough into noodles roughly 3mm wide. Place the noodles in boiling water and boil for about 15 minutes, then serve with age and your choice of condiments.Get cooking, anons.
>>58805551What a bizarre recipe.
>>58805479That's actually pretty impressively close to Mega Meganium's design.
