We also get a bathing scene that left out from the show

>>147280505
It would be too much for GSC/Pili to carve upper bodies for scenes like that.

>>147280664

More like it would be a complete waste of time.

Dem Taiwanese knows people want story and action. Not these shitty scenes that dull the pacing and momentum of the show.

I refuse to acknowledge this doll garbage as an anime.

Why do I get the feeling vape wizard lied about the guard location and he's going to walk away with both pieces.

>>147280758
You have a point about the pacing, with which I'm completely satisfied so far. I wanted a bathing Tan Hi and there's no point in the story it could be placed without breaking pace.

>>147280624
What is ken doing ?

>>147280866
I found it one of the least garbage things to watch this season. Watching it is always better than complaining about slim pickings.

>>147280866
How can something like this be called garbage?

>>147282165
Taiwanese is such a shitty sounding language.

>>147282351
Let that be the only complaint against Pili shows.

Then again some of their women look like feet, but they're probably villanous women.

>>147282706
Which are the one that look like feet ? Most of the female i have seen post on a thunderbolt thread look good.

>>147282165
could this be what happen to ken and tan hi
this episode? They are breaking out from enemy territory too just like the girl and guy in the first two videos

looks like in an ironic twist , ken is the new one eye impaler now

>>147283814
Someone posted a collage of females from other Pili shows and a lot of them look like antagonists in daytime soap.

Shou is so bad at pretending it's painful to watch.

Oh, shit. I have to wait another week for the next episode.

Ken had his poem this episode:

「人笑良圖若華胥，吾志凌雲意堅行。不與浮榮競朝夕，無憾黃沙染身時。」

日本語訳：理想が高い夢と笑われようと、俺はこの凌雲の志を貫く。上辺だけの虚名を追いかけるより、命を落とす時心残りなく生きたい。

>>147280889
Because he's vape wizard. It's hard to tell whether or not he's full of shit as basically all times.

>>147282351
That is hokkien. Think ebonics, but even worse.

>>147285104
Ken didn't die yet. I don't know what to feel.

>>147286754
It's only a matter of time.

Real fujotastic designs, if you ask me. But no one asked me.

>>147285104
what the hell?

this poem feels like urobuchi just pasted a bunch of words together.

>>147280405
>>147280594
>>147280539
What do you think of food serving Tan Hi
and hot springs Tan Hi ?

>>147287299
That's something a lot of people already noticed on their own.

>>147280450
>butt wing spread out that much
>>147280505
>conveniently covers up where butt wings would be

I know it's run of the mill censoring but it still makes me suspect something.

Episode is out, the disguise gets discovered almost instantly, kek.
Next episode is called "The blade that doesn't cut"
so Shou really uses a blunt sword?

>>147288898
His art name is Jin Muhou which translates as Edgeless Blade. Do the math.

>>147288952
How is that impressive?

>>147289079
What is impressive? Using edgeless blade?

>>147287880
I think a hot springs Tan Hi puppet needs to be made.

>>147289079
how about you try cutting down living and undead with a blunt sword

>>147287604
What does it say?
From google translate, I can at least tell that CR heavily modified it.

>>147289118
I mean Lin said he mastered " a terrific sword style" or something like that last episode. So i was expecting something more impressive.

>>147289264
It looks like classical chinese which google translate can't translate.

>>147289287
With this episode, the current theory is that Shou is a demon who uses a wooden stick for a sword to nerf himself.

>>147289287
He described the sword skill as 恐ろしい, something to be feared.

>>147289264

at the cost of losing my sanity, mind posting what abomination they put out?

>>147289461
in that case wouldn't it be easier to go from the Japanese angle?

>>147288898
The Taiwanese fan event revealed that he has another sword with a badass-soudning attack on top of that as well

>>147285104 >>147287604
There are a lot of literature reference in this one.
I'm a Taiwanese and this is my poor translation.

People laugh that good intentions are just unrealistic,
my will is higher than the clouds and I will uphold to it.
don't race time for fame and fortune
and never regret when you die

良圖: good intention
華胥: a place in mythology, meaning not real
朝夕: morning and afternoon, meaning time
黃沙染身(originally 命染黃沙): die

>>147286754
>>147286854
>expecting Ken to die
Are you guys serious? Losing his eye gave him plot armor, he'll defeat his bro and become the new One Eyed Impaler. It'd be a pointless development for him to suffer this now just to die later.

>>147287604

Just like the character names, I think it's the guys from Pili who's doing those poems.

i will never be a fan of the manga

>>147290066
>at the cost of losing my sanity, mind posting what abomination they put out?

Even if I'm laughed at for falling with nothing to my name
I choose to live life in accordance with my principles
Rather than living out my days accruing glory
I seek to die with a satisfied smile on my face

>>147290252
I assumed dying with conviction is a common destiny for those who find true heroism. If I'm to be wrong I hope to be pleasantly surprised.

>>147289287
>I mean Lin said he mastered " a terrific sword style" or something like that last episode.
He said he "mastered a such dreadful sword". It can be understood as the sword sucking, or handicapping yourself so much being dreadful.

>>147290341
maybe he just pushed it through him really hard

i got stabbed in the upper arm with a ballpoint pen once

>>147290295
Urobuchi named the characters according to Pili naming conventions, they translated the nip poems he wrote to Taiwanese because he thought they sound better in Taiwanese.

>>147290483

they've already described him as someone with tremendous chi. In wuxia you can cut through everything with anything when you got enough chi in you.

>>147290521

Go watch the ep11 bonus material. They go into this topic.

>>147290580
>they've already described him as someone with tremendous chi
When was that?

>>147290066
>in that case wouldn't it be easier to go from the Japanese angle

Depends on how much Classical Chinese Urobuchi knows. The Japanese Court still talked like this (with Japanese syntax) up until the end of WW2 for example so students and writers know a bit of like how modern day writers might know how to ape elizabethian english.

Ken confirmed for winning the Tanhibowl, and hopefully surviving to tell it.

>>147291011
He was scared of Kei Gai being a demon, though.

>>147290952
That means Kei Gai and Whatshisname held hands too.

Can 10guy get any better? This dude is the ultimate entertaining antagonist

Can someone make the teleport webm?

Urobuchi said in the fan event that Betsu wears a mask to protect his beautiful face from the wind at high altitudes. Confirmed for homo.

There was also a Ryoumi torture scene that was removed in the final draft of the script.

Not this guy but I would like a webm of One eyed impaler doing his death reflection against Ken, that was really cool.

>>147291011
I feel like Shang is the guy who actualy slew the demon and that sword in the temple is nothing more than a pretty display while the true object is either is that terrible sword Shang uses or doesn't exist or Shang is the sword.

>>147292801

>>147292831
I feel like the sword is probably at least as good as the other objects but it will be revealed that the reason one and only one demon lord lost was because the wielder was exceptional.

Sword philosophy will fall apart, because a blade is as worthless as whoever wields it, and so too do swords only become great in the hands of someone who is themselves great.

What is his endgame? For a sec I thought he was actually a bro but it looks like he really is just another villain.

>>147294276
13.

But I get the feeling that it's going to leave some plot threads hanging for an S2 that we'll never have.

>>147294325

The ethos of a champion.

He wishes to become known as the ultimate thief by stealing that which makes the greatest great.

>>147292072
He is just too manly.

>>147291775
The only good with that thing dying is its owner not having to spawn more overlords.

Giving things for Tanhi and Ken to do is good but I really just want to know what Shang's deal is.

>>147297553
He was able to fight to fight through two parts of the obstacle course that protected BetsuTenGai's tower (that Rin needed two people to get through), journey through the wasteland of the dead that no one else had done and had a sort of danger awareness and Eye of the Mind skill that both BetsuTenGai and Setsu Musho had.

He is not some ordinary bystander.

>>147299608
He is the villain.

>>147280889
I don't think he lied about the location based on the final scene of the episode

Or maybe Mr. Bones recognize Shou and just go 'Ah fuck me. It's you again. Fuck this, I'm going back to the demon realm.' And then just leaves.

Yeah, probably. He even told Mr. Bones how the Tiān Xíng Jiàn actually works - it doesn't kill the demons, it forces them to repent their evil ways. This is setting up Bones getting the sword and using it on Sho just to be told "You do know I've already repented, right?"

It was Bones who told him.

>>147306193

After re-watching it, you're right. Bones thinks that Tiān Xíng Jiàn is the exception to the other blades and is capable of killing a demon god, while Shang implies that Bones doesn't really know what the fuck he's talking about.

More pottery really really, but if I had to argue Irony:

>Beginning, he looks up to One-Eye and wants to become more like him. One-Eye willingly mentors him.
>Middle, he finds out more about One-Eye and wants to not become more like him. One-Eye tries to persuade/force Ken to let him still mentor him and really teach the proper ways of "Heroism/Fame"
>End, One-Eye and Ken fight, opposing one another. Ken becomes more like One-Eye in appearance, but not in character.

When Ken started to recite his poem, I feared for his life. Especially because of the meaning of the poem.
Butcher is just setting up an even greater fall though.

>>147296246
It's a common thing in wuxia though. And often played around with the concepts. Heavenly Sword and Dragon Slaying Saber had people running around trying to get their hands on the titular legendary weapons. Even though most of them didn't even know that the real secret is that you're suppose to destroy both swords to get the secret martial arts move encased within the swords.

>>147294325

>In the interview he also said that he treasures his 3 underlings and doesn't allow them to wear masks like the others.

In the earlier episodes there was a scene where b210guy was caressing dreadlocks' cheeks. I say it's possible.

b210guy also teaches his henchmen all their wuxia tricks. But rarely do they get promoted because they tend to die so fast.
