Episode 60: Friend (Lyserg's Return)

[Len]

I got a "tactical" question. Notice when Horo-Horo created the Shield of Ice; Instead of the bad guys hammering away at it.. would it not be much easier to GO AROUND IT!?
XD

(btw. to that person making references to Pokemon, if you didnt notice, the latest SK GBA games were very Pokemon-like. Thats the reason for the "strange" attack names...)

[Greenfire]

Maybe he did put him back together wrong. On the next episode of Shaman King!:

"Lenny": For the love of bad accents, I believe that I'm missing a rib!
Faust: *shifty eyes* What?

[TakinawaTonfa]

Wow, so fatal is an OK word now?

Hmmm....Lesse

--dub Hanagumi = bleck! > _ < ("SUPER RATTLE ATTACK!!")

--dub Faust = sounded like a wuss

--"Arch-spirit Advent" < "Angel Advent"

--I thought of Temjin from "Virtual-ON: Cyber Troopers" when I saw that oversoul-sword slash dealie.

And finally...

The name "Zeke" is even worse when said in one of those Heian-period onmyoji outfits (...Y'know, like the outfit of Sai from Hikaru no Go)

[Setsumi-san]

Notice when Horo-Horo created the shield of Ice; Instead of the bad guys hammering away at it...would it not be much easier to GO AROUND IT!?

Y'know...I never thought of that. I guess it's one of those things the audience simply accepts.

Sorry, but I have to disagree with everybody about Manta and Opacho's dialogue. I thought it was just plain corny.

[Shorty22]

I kinda thought that Horo had made like an ice pyramid thing rather than an ice wall... and they were inside it. The first time anyway. The last one he made looked more wall-like.

While corny, I still liked the Morty/Opacho dialogue and I thought it was especially amusing how Zeke was kinda 'parenting' them along the way. XD

And Ren! Whoo, he got so fast. The surprised faces on Chocolove & Faust were funny! Aw, Horo had tears in his eyes when he saw Ren... And when Len was thanking them and giving his friendship speech, he, Horo and someone else got a lil blush. Ah, good scenes.

Despite being all "Grrr, Lyserg is mean" just a few episodes ago, I must admit, I forgave him as easily as the group did. Does Yoh forgive him too? I mean, I'd assume he would, but then, he seemed really disappointed/hurt when he decided that Lyserg wasn't coming back, since he was too far gone. (I forgot how it was specifically worded...)

Also, semi-random Horo question; Is there any reason he's back to wearing his normal/original clothes? I mean, wasn't he wearing that black version for awhile?

[yashaboy]

This was a good episode but so many things happened and it felt so rushed!

I didn't really get what Kino was doing to the 1080 beads, but that may be because I missed the last episode.

Also, I don't really think Hao's voice fits for the old Sai-like Hao. It just sounded weird to me!

Can anyone tell me if the manga was this rushed at about this time or is it just because it's getting to the end?

[KuroiInu]

Wow. Pretty good dub episode. The only thing I can really complain about is the BGM. <And that's because I adore Ryuuro, which happens to be played in this episode at possibly my favorite moment of the series...>
Ren's nakama speech was left surprisingly un-mutilated.

The Opacho/Manta arguement was cute...
Ren's "It'll take more than a fatal blow to finish me!" line was AWESOME.
Faust was cool, but did anybody else think of Humpty Dumpty when he "Put Ren back together" wrong.
"Looks like were back in business, boys."

[heezaaaa]

Fweee. Now for the list of random things Furu thought while watching the dub. XD

- When dub Matti/Macchi said "Zeke's going to become the shaman king" she sounded like she was teasing Yoh. Like at snack time a 4-year-old would say "I got a cookie and you don't~ Ha ha ha ha". O_o I dunno. I notice weird things that bother me.
- Lyserg/Ren implied-ness?
- It's veeerrrry late to say this, but the way the dub says "Asakura" bothers me. ::shotshotshot::
- Hao's Minion Person Thing: "He's going to the spirit world!"
Lyserg: "Nooooooooo! DX"
- Faust: "O_O Did I put him back together wrong!?"
XDD;
- Ren: "Looks like were back in business boys"
... xD God only knows why that made me laugh.
- Awww. Horohoro cried. XD
- I think Anna smiled at Pirika and Tamao. Cute!!
- Trey's voice cracked when he said "WHAT!?" XDD Which is even funnier because in the original, compared to the other male characters his age, Horohoro is the only one who sounds like he went through puberty. .__.

And that's it... o__o

zomg. 4 more episodes left! DX It's kind of sad to see the dub ending. If it weren't for the dub there wouldn't be SKU or it's forums. Then I wouldn't have met my good friends S-chan, Inu, and Resurie. ;; And I guess you other people. ::shot:: XD I luff you~

And doesn't old Hao look like that character from Hikaru no Go? *killed*

Hikaru: Sai! Hyoi Gattai! DX
Yuki: o.O;

super lurffle luff party! =DDD...

[RyuLover67]

Oh I just remebered something! When Ren came back to life, his his hair grew and a little.XD

I cracked up at that part.Oh and Horo looked cute blushing too.

[Ashil]

lol me too! i was like "ahh! there goes the hair!"

this was one of ren's finest moments ^^

[kfttjdb]

I just watched it and I thought it was great. The bickering between Opacho and Manta really amused me because it seemed ironic in some way. Ren was really kicked butt in this episode, I was very excited. Lyserg's back! Not a major fan of his, but I was excited nevertheless.

[Useless]

Meh, not bad today.

Hmm, I really wish 4Kids would let the characters say "die", "kill", al that junk. Stepping around those words and making up substitutes just makes things a little awkward.

Is it just me, or did anyone else laugh at hearing Macchi yell "bigger is better" before attacking Yoh?

Seriously, I do not understand the change in story about the beads. The beads are not being infused with power of 1080 Asakura spirits, it is being realigned to perform the 1080 sealing spells used the first time around, and Hao was never in the tournament 1000 years ago, it was just the Asakura family that challenged and killed him.

Hmm, so one of Zinc's mediums is a false tooth, but what does that create? Large jaws for him to bite people? That would be interesting to see...

A giant death beam gets blocked by a shield made of wire? That's gotta suck for Turbine...

Heh, I loved it when Faust looked like this.

Sigh, guess they really could not come up with a good idea for Kanna's new giant oversoul. My mind may be in the gutter, but I still think designing Chuck like that was a bad idea.

[Lord Cyber]

I've gotta agree with Useless...this episode was weak...I think it's my all new worst episode...

It's not that the last few episodes have been rushed, but they keep jumping around to the different groups...was there anything wrong with sticking to one group for their entire battle, then moving onto the next group instead of piece-mealing them all into 3 to 4 minute segments???

This might have been the dubs fault but:
"Anna, travel north to the forbidden forest then to the star sanctuary..."

WHY IS SHE RUNNING SOUTH!??? AHHH...it hurts my head...she's running AWAY from the center of town and the big swirly collection of souls...

The "epic" conclusion to fights...characters have been trading blows and mocking each other for 3 episodes now, and Len takes them all out with one hit...one hit that we don't even see...after everyone else being unable to do anything to them as a group, Len, after being injured, takes them all down in one hit...the show lost all ability to feel real then...I can't believe it...

The Hanagumi's losing their spirits, where they just swirl out of existence like a bad video edit...grr...

Next.

[Shadowchan]

Loved it.

-All the dialouge was quite good, I think.
-Morty/Opacho was adorable!
-Hao is so...motherly....towards Morty and Opacho. XD
-Ren looked so...dead...*is pummeled with "DUH" bricks*
-I love Faust. I love his voice actor. His lines were wonderful. "Maybe I put him back together wrong!" XD XD
-I saw a scapel!
-Aww, Horo cried!! ^^
-Do they ever actually show Ren's wound?
-LYSERG!! I love his new X-Law dowsing thingymajig.

The ice formed a sort of pointy dome thing around them all.
