oh my god I forgot this game existed and it was SO, SO BAD. SO BAD!

I kinda wish the boys would do a one-off for this because just the intro cutscene voices and how Megatron transforms ingame would probably kill them

Mystery Box is dead forever because they don't care enough to play random old games for the hell of it anymore, and because that specific format is Youtube poison.

Unlike 90% of guests, this one is live so he's interrupting the best friends like a regular member.

Also, Antfish has been friends with them for like since way before the channel existed.

He pushed Scooby Doo Mystery Inc. to the boys, so he's the best guest so far.

I know Antfish from the JoJo forums before he started doing Abridged stuff, he's a pretty cool dude yeah. I imagine him fitting in better with these guys more than most guests and they've talked to him at cons a lot since he hangs around with Takahata a lot.

However, him actually knowing about JoJo may prove an impediment to talking about JoJo with the Best Friends.

He watched one episode and hates it, talks about how ugly the manga art is which whatever I've never seen HxH I don't have a horse in this race

then when he's told Togashi is chronically ill Pat starts yelling that he should just quit drawing and then calls the series "ugly scribbles from a dying man"

Like it's clearly him playing it up to be a contrarian rear end in a top hat but if that's the poo poo that's coming out of your mouth the difference between playing a character and just being an rear end in a top hat is nil

He wasn't even told that stuff about the author by anyone else on the podcast, he brought it up himself just so he could take a jab at the guy for being gravely ill I guess?

Every so often he'll say something overly callous or lovely and play it off with a self-aware comment and it's always the worst. Matt will get passive-aggressive and sulk about being called out and Woolie will spend the rest of his life inventing hypothetical scenarios that let him believe he wasn't 100% wrong about something, but they never come off as spiteful the way he can.

I still remember the David Hayter thing Pat thing and I try not to think too much about it because people thinking that way about voice actors really loving annoys me.

I vaguely remember this, but all I remember is that he said something about David Hayter. I don't remember whether it was stupid or not.

Togashi isn’t terminally ill, is he? I don’t think it’s been revealed exactly what he has other than extreme back pain.

Pat’s whole thing about HxH is extra annoying to me because I thought the first couple episodes were underwhelming too, but I trusted the people who said it was good and stuck with it, whereas Pat seems to be distrusting those same people and is watching it just to prove them wrong or something.

Togashi has some bad back issues but he's also quite lackadaisical regarding his schedule despite that, which I can't hold against him considering how mangakas are treated overall.

Also Pat is an rear end in a top hat but that's his thing anyway, I just shake my head and go "what an rear end in a top hat" because it's never THAT bad.

It started off as "Kojima tried to cut him out multiple times, has shown no appreciation for his work and clearly doesn't respect him the way he represents the Japanese voice actor, so why did Hayter still believe it was 'his' character after all this time?" and by the end of the argument it became "lol gently caress actors who feel things about their characters".

A lot of the really bad stuff happens on the podcast because the other guys try to pre-empt his opinions with bad takes that he doesn't even have and then he escalates those imagined takes to be even worse because he just enjoys being a dick. It happens way less without Liam around to dig in, thankfully.

Between the return of HxH meaning the cancellation of another (often fledgling) comic and the impression Chimera Ant arc left as a bunch of self important finger wagging about humanity being the real monster I’m not a fan.

I’m certainly not to the point of pure seething spite Pat’s at but I’ve had stuff I’ve liked be sacrificed to the god king of chicken scratches and it does not feel great.

His mantra is Dig Up Stupid rather than say he shouldn't have said something

He also poo poo on one piece's artstyle despite openly enjoying what he saw of the series (up through alabasta iirc) and while the artstyle is certainly stylized, it's not BAD. It's gotten considerably better as the series has gone on, too, outside of the bimbofication of most women in it

The thing to bear in mind about Pat's taste is how much he claimed to love JoJo's while getting pretty much every detail about every character wrong in the Eyes of Heaven LP, to the point where, if I remember right, they had to issue an apology.

Actually watching/reading something to find out if you like it or not does not occur to Pat. If he decides he doesn't like something, nothing will change his mind.

woolie extolled, pretty loving vehemently, the greatness of Legend of the Galactic Heroes, and pat still won't watch it because he's a stubborn stubby babyman
