We're shaking off the dust after our break and diving right into the colorful universe of "Solo Leveling" in our latest podcast episode. The anime adaptation has given us plenty to talk about, especially when it comes to our underdog E-rank hero, Jinwoo. His journey defies the usual tropes, and we can't wait to share our take on how the series reshapes the Isekai genre. Get ready for a splash of our weekend escapades, too, because we're all about blending the vibrant with the visceral, and sometimes that means a little too much fun with a side of laughter.

As our conversation unfolds, we veer into the unexpected, musing over the quirky implications of our podcast's name and the symbolic weight of reuniting Vietnamese families after the turmoil of war. Our chat is a lively patchwork of history, strategy, and the power of storytelling, capturing the essence of the Viet Cong's guerrilla warfare. No stone is left unturned in this segment, and whether your interests lie in animated worlds or the real battles of the past, there's something here to pique your curiosity.

Circling back to the present, we explore the evolving acceptance of mixed heritage identities and the poignant narrative of 'Operation Babylift'. The conversation takes a personal turn as we discuss the complexities and consequences of history on personal identity and societal norms.  Join us for this rich tapestry of topics, and as always, keep an eye out for more engaging content just around the corner.

Alright, let's go solo levelling episode 1.5.

Speaker 2:

Episode 1.5 alright, let's go. Let's go from the start. Man first that, so I'll go. Well, you've read the manga yeah, yeah so it's a bit different. I don't know, but how was your reaction from reading the manga to the first episode of the anime? That's a good question. Yeah, that's a good question okay, um, I loved it.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it was a. I hadn't read it for a while. Like I, I read the first chapter to solo leveling. Fuck, I don't even know.

Speaker 2:

Now it's been a long time since I started that to be honest, yep, like up to that point where you kind of forgot what happened, yeah, and like how the only thing I really remembered was the face of that big giant statue, scary little smile they did on the.

Speaker 1:

You know what I mean? Yeah, and that shit was scary as shit, even more scary in the anime because he's moving. But yeah, that gave me nightmares first time I read it. That was scary and that's why I like, that's why I knew I was like man, I'm gonna love this, because just after that first face you're like holy fuck.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

And because mine was in colour, like you see it as it is.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, okay, that's true.

Speaker 1:

You're not like guessing what it's going to look like, what the colours are going to, yeah, All that kind of stuff. It is what it is, and fuck me, that's some good shit.

Speaker 2:

Yeah yeah, it wasn't the case with Dragon Ball Z, like the reason that Super Saiyan's hair is blonde is because they got to ink it.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, is that it?

Speaker 2:

Like that's pretty funny.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, you can't do that to Mungua, though. They just let the hair fly with no colour.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah. So, Mungua Okay.

Speaker 2:

My first reaction to it. I was a bit like oh Isekai.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

And then I was like oh, I can see that I like this. Yeah, I was a bit hesitant. I'm not a big Isekai guy, not really into it. The slime reincarnated slime is kind of fun, it's a bit different.

Speaker 1:

It's hilarious, he's not?

Speaker 2:

like come back as like some beast ass sexy dude or anything like that.

Speaker 1:

I just yeah. I find it so funny how he got his powers to a. Yeah, because he was just like man I forgot to erase, like I needed to erase my oh information.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, his search history.

Speaker 1:

He's like I need to erase all my search history.

Speaker 2:

Like regrets.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, dirty little fucker. It's a funny episode, dude, yeah.

Speaker 2:

But yeah. So first reaction to the episode. I was pretty much hooked once we got into it yeah, I liked Jinwoo Jinwoo's cool man even though he was like kind of, you know, he's weak obviously yeah, e rank E rank. But he wasn't like a normal protagonist in the fact that like he wasn't being a bitch yeah, he was still trying dude yeah, he wasn't like I can't do it.

Speaker 1:

He was just like fuck it man yeah, I need to make this, is it? I guess I'm yeah. Yeah, I'm gonna make some mana dude like.

Speaker 2:

Either way, I'm going to the hospital after this I just want to have some chicken with my sister yeah, I'm gonna feed my sister dude need to have some fried chicken it's continuous I must say fucked up cream fried chicken, god damn. Also, the dude's got some riz man.

We're only six, we're only six minutes in, don't get too hungry oh yeah, fuck six minutes, that went pretty quick six minutes goes quick when your brain's about to die yep okay. So yeah, first episode was good. I don't know, it was first episode, when you see the face does it go straight into it or is it second episode? Uh, it's second episode so first episode, good introduction. I was like okay, sick, I'm in I like jimmy as long as the protagonist is good it's good setup.

Speaker 1:

The world showed you the world. But how it works, all that kind of all that kind of stuff was good.

Speaker 2:

Okay, cool, this is sick, yeah I like a bit of like dungeon the dragon shit oh yeah which I was like like a bit of spice of that.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I think that's one of my favorite things about it is that, like it is, modern times dnd but the whole like it's really based on you know your powers are based on using melee weapons or magic yeah, which is sick, because like we're in a time like right now, where there's tanks, guns, all that kind of shit but these dudes with like their, whatever type, they are just outclass these people with guns yeah, like it's badass.

Speaker 2:

I like that kind of shit. It's pretty badass. I want to know how they got class, like do they always have classes or was it just when the dungeon showed up? I don't know. Maybe I'll find out eventually. Yeah, you do there you go.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it's good. Yeah, the way, like how he waits, like the.

Speaker 2:

The author honestly so good sets it up.

Speaker 1:

Shout out to you RIP brother shout out man, shit man oh, is he dead yeah, conspiracy.

Speaker 1:

No point of thinking. These are all. There's no fingers here. Allegedly, yeah, alleged.

Speaker 2:

These are just Apparently. Apparently.

Speaker 1:

He said some things Apparently and Some people might not like those things. Some people didn't like them.

Speaker 2:

Were they needed, maybe not.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

But hey, sometimes you just say Fuck it, yeah, hey, sometimes you just say fuck it and he said fuck it.

Speaker 1:

Actually I don't know if it was the author or if it was the artist. Oh, okay, yeah, because they're two different oh okay, oh true, true true in Korea there's the manhwa who makes the story, and then there's the person who does the the writing, the art, oh, okay.

Speaker 2:

oh, the illustrator, yeah the illustrator. Oh, because in manga they do it all. They do it all, yeah, ah, cool, fun fact about Dragon Ball honestly, let's pause. Sorry, sorry, sorry, 7.5, let's go. He just made me remember 7.5.

Speaker 1:

So the artist of the manga who does Super, it's not Akira Toriyama. Akira just did the story.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

And then the artist is Toyotaro or something. I don't know his full name. Sorry, don't come at me. But, he did a fan, like a fan story back in the day. I don't know if you remember it was Dragon Ball AF. Oh yeah, I remember that. Yeah, which was the Super Saiyan 5.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah the cool shit, the cool shit, the cool shit that came out after Super Saiyan 4? Was that on YouTube?

Speaker 1:

yeah, he wrote that and drew all of that oh. I didn't know that, yeah so the guy who does Super now, who's done all the art for Super, actually made AF when we were in high school dude AF was awesome. Af was badass man like the Super Saiyan 5.

Speaker 2:

That's when they had like. That's when they had like they'd have, like Gohan Super Saiyan. 5, right, like they'll just have random trunk, super Saiyan 5, and you'd be like whoa. It was like one shot, kind of little stories yeah.

Speaker 1:

And he did the one, the story and it's like. It's about like Goku, this Kai fell in love with him and she went to his dreams. She got impregnated and had that baby and his kid is like Super Saiyan 5. Born, super Saiyan 5.

Speaker 2:

I've got to watch this episode. Yeah, so he's half Kai.

Speaker 1:

He's half, yeah, he's half, like he's half God and half Saiyan.

Speaker 2:

That's so sick, yeah, and he's like Super.

Speaker 1:

Saiyan 5 from the get-go. His name's like Zero, sick or something. Gohan would be so jealous yeah because he comes to Earth and then Goku's got to like power up go Super Saiyan 5 yeah, to fight Goku why you were not there, daddy yeah, dude, I didn't even do anything. Yeah, she literally raped me. Goku didn't know she raped me in my head and then Goku gets Super Saiyan 5, but yeah, the main thing is a fan writer became the main writer, the main illustrator.

Any weapon, yeah, flag like if they had. Yeah, that'd be cool like a war flag.

Speaker 2:

Put your favourite like historical, like country. Maybe that'd be cool yeah, like something you just like, you just into you don't know why you're into it, like maybe you're into knights, yeah.

How you can be so interested in the different cultures. It's so cool, dude. It's okay to be you know it's okay to be interested in these cultures.

Speaker 2:

Dude, me and Kat were talking about it the other day because we were watching actually, we were watching bloody. What did we talk about before? We were watching on Netflix Physical 100. Physical 100. Because season two came were watching on Netflix Physical 100.

Speaker 1:

Physical 100.

Speaker 2:

Because season 2 came out. Yeah, physical 100.

Speaker 1:

Good show, so good man. Just put on and just be like Such a good movie, such a good show.

Speaker 2:

Such a good eat and watch.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Eat and watch Binge, but there's a guy that's like Half Korean. He's half Korean, half American. Yeah, and me and Kat was like isn't it crazy that like back in the day, like me and her wouldn't have been allowed to like be around you two?

Speaker 2:

yeah and I was just like funny to think about and now it's like normal, yeah, it's kind of. It's just like kind of cool. It's cool to think about how much time has passed. But when you look in the history, shit like yeah, like we wouldn't be around, we'd just be like they'd be like no, fuck you dude. Yeah, I was like I like watching shogun and I was like dude, I would have died straight up that would have fucking killed me. Yeah, so quick. That'd be like he's foreign I'm fucking killing that was a yeah, that fuck.

Speaker 1:

Sorry, sorry for bringing up being I'm so much, but there was another. There was another like byproduct of the um, the war in nam, the soldiers, the soldiers having kids over there, oh yeah, so like the half-caste were like the mums would like, were they legitimate or? Were they like Some of them were.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, some of them were, Some were born in love. But like, let's be honest, let's be honest, let's be honest.

Speaker 1:

Probably 80% were born. You know terrible things, terrible things, yeah, um, but like the parents, the mums would literally throw the kid away, leave them at orphanages, because they didn't want to be associated with it as a person? Yeah, you know for vietnamese having a half-breed child. So they they had like a baby lift project during the war and took away like 8 000000 babies to America. Oh damn they flew like 8,000 half-caste babies to America, Damn son.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and they grew up in orphanages in America. That's crazy. Yeah, bro, crazy man Like half-caste being half-caste was like crazy. Back in the day I think I watched a movie on that man.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I don't think it was exactly about that. It's called Blue Bayou. Have you seen Blue Bayou? No, it's kind of about like a lot of things, but the main point was like at the end it tells you like a lot of like people from like Vietnam and stuff got sent to America. But the law that they brought in, they were in adoptions and stuff, but they weren't classified as citizens before they. They came before like the 2000 or something. So a lot of them were just getting like sent back to vietnam or like korea, but they never actually lived there.

Speaker 2:

They never lived there. They only know their life in america yeah and that was a movie about like kind of like that situation.

Speaker 1:

I was like fuck, that's, it's a big culture shock for them too you know like it happens to people over here as well, like in australia oh yeah, like you could be in america. Like you could be, um you know, born as a samoan or tongan citizen, but, like you know, your whole life is in america or australia. But you get, you know, you get into some trouble, you get deported, you get sent back to the islands and you have no idea what you're doing, because you were born in a place with like yeah you know, yeah, completely different cultures yeah but like they're stuck there, that'd be crazy, crazy man imagine like fuck deportation is crazy.

Speaker 2:

It is pretty crazy, yeah, especially if you live somewhere your whole life yeah, your whole life wait, they lived here.

Speaker 2:

that Like some of the immigration rules. Man like Crazy. I know in Australia we just had something passed Like with New Zealand. For ages New Zealanders could live here and pay tax, but they couldn't get like help with their student fees, nothing. And they've just passed the law now, yeah, that they can become citizen. Becoming a citizen was really hard. You like had to be here for like I don't know like 10 years and never have holidayed Like it was like you couldn't have left Every time you left the country, it would reset it was so weird, it was crazy.

Speaker 2:

But they reset it and the citizens can become Australian citizens that have lived here pretty much their whole lives. It's quite good. It's so weird, man. Some of the laws, finally. So one day I'll live in Japan. One day, one day, baby.

Speaker 1:
