IIRC, and it's been a while since I read the books, the only way to end a Quidditch game is by catching the Snitch. So games will go on forever until someone does it or resign. It's a very dumb game. There's one play that's worth like 15 goals. It also ends the match. The smart strategy is to just park the bus and disrupt the assholes whose function is smash people in the face with iron balls while your dude zooms around trying to get the thing. edit: also the game where the dude caught the snitch and still lost was a game where his team was losing by like, a billion points, and he basically decided to stop getting destroyed and just end it with some dignity. Which, again, is incredibly dumb.

Quidditch is supposed to be a dumb game, it's a parody of cricket and rugby.

I dunno if I like Harry Potter or if I just have Powerful Nostalgia for it. JKR being Dumb as gently caress recently kinda retroactively soured me a bit on the series too. but i won't have dirty anime lovers and north american dub apologists trying to take the moral high ground here, okay

ironically harry is a massive jock in retrospect. there's even a bit about how he just barely meets his course requirements thanks to a newer teacher's leniency

Harry is a trust fund kid that is good at sports, relatively successful at dating, is always picking fights with other preppy assholes, is blatantly favored by school administration and sneaks out all the time to hang out in the woods with his friends. He also split a man's face in half once and got away with a slap on the wrist, and his dad was such a chad that it got both himself and his wife killed. At least he shot a nazi snakeman in the face tho.

Don't forget he grows up to be a cop, and gives one of his kids a fancy hyphenated name based on two successful men. He also keeps trying to buy solid gold objects just because he can. Harry is absolutely a wizard chad.

Harry becoming a wizard cop is especially nonsense when you think about how a huge part of his arc is about how he finally has a safe home in Hogwarts, becomes a great secret teacher to his classmates, always wanted a relatively normal life, and understands teaching defense against the dark arts better than most of the actual teachers. but no, he had to become a cop instead of ironically taking the job voldemort canonically wanted.

Did the guys ever do a video on Fist of the North Star Lost Paradise? I swear I can remember Pat being uncomfortable faced with watching the Hokuto Shinken style: Steel Shredding Clench.

Matt did an import video with it on his side channel before it was actually out in English, aside from that I don't think so.

Nothing says "we respect our female characters so much more" than the main character copping a feel a second before the credits roll. Also, bless Billy for that callback joke at the end.
