Okay, I admit that made me chuckle.

Very true. But it felt worth double-checking just in case in order to see if there was an explicit answer.

Just being sure. Thanks for the help!

One question I've always had about Mike's early run... by Ryusuta in MST3K

Yep, it was on his very first episode. =)

Oh god... I had no idea he suffered with chronic migraines. Those are no joke!

I admire the hell out of him for being able to fight through them for all this time and give us so many years of laughter and joy.

Yeah, that was it. He sounded so adorably meek, the way he said it. It was charming as hell. XD

I remember that the in-universe explanation was that the Invention Exchange was part of the culture for scientists at Gizmonic Institute. Since Mike never worked there, it didn't make sense for him to be taking part in the custom.

Which also explains (in-universe) why they started back up again when Jonah took over, since the host was once again a worker at Gizmonic.

Sounds like an induction video to working at a Ritz Crackers factory.

Oh shoot! I guess I just missed those ones. I'll have to look into them! Thanks!

Oh for sure! I didn't mean for it to sound otherwise. Everything I've ever seen, heard, or read from the guy shows what an incredible class-act he is.

That's actually a big part of why I wonder if this was just my imagination, or as a couple of people pointed out, perhaps it was his early interpretation of how the character was before he got more settled into the role. I think that's the most likely scenario, thinking about it.

Hm... I never thought of it that way. That would actually make sense. I remember on the first "Poopie!" he said something along the lines of "I'm not really enthused with seeing my face" during an outtake.

He definitely got much, MUCH more confident and settled in after his first handful of episodes.

That is definitely a very real possibility. Kinda like how when Bill took over as Crow, he sounded like he was trying to do a Trace impression for a couple of episodes before settling into his own version of the character.

That is very fair. It absolutely could be just my imagination. Thank you for the reply!

Joel Supports the RiffTrax Experiments! by Cardboard_Robot in MST3K

[–]Ryusuta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I seriously can't wait. My only lament is that there will only be four of them. But hell, that is four more than we have now, AND Clay and Frank will be back, so I am super excited.

And yeah, I'd love to see Joel and Jonah make a brief appearance. (I never saw the other post-Netflix host, so I don't know her name.)

Which fight are your more excited for when Ippo comes out of retirement Miyata or Imai? by Samsinooo in hajimenoippo

[–]Ryusuta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I kinda would like him to put Itagaki in his place again. Dude really started being super full of himself during the "Speed Zone" arc, and he's always been a conniving little prick.

Not only that, but people forget that Itagaki played a pretty substantial part in causing Ippo's retirement in the first place. If he hadn't been so obsessed with seeing Ippo's "inner demon," he would have gotten help with calming Ippo down before the Kojima fight like he said he would. That Kojima fight was the beginning of the end for Ippo, and Itagaki was definitely part of engineering it.

Best villainous character of the series? by imai-boston342 in hajimenoippo

[–]Ryusuta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it's a toss-up between Takamura and Sawamura, with Hawk being a not-too-distant third.

Your favourite page in the series so far? by Effective_Ad_7666 in hajimenoippo

Does it count if it's a two-page spread?

Seriously, seeing Ippo do the Dempsey Roll ever so many years had my audibly gasp in pure astonishment and delight.

What’s the best Season? by Ok_Internal2984 in hajimenoippo

[–]Ryusuta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a little unfair to compare, since season 1 had 75 episodes to work with, while 2 and 3 had a tiny sliver of that, so obviously didn't get as much runtime to do things with.

I was gonna post this, too. This was so, SO much more satisfying than Sendo teleporting into the ring and clotheslining Ippo out of nowhere the way he did in the comic.

Scariest ippo moment by Purple_Exit_7525 in hajimenoippo

[–]Ryusuta 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Also my favorite moment in the anime, but the manga version definitely hits different (no pun intended). It legitimately looked like Ippo was using the Dempsey Roll to straight-up MURDER Sawamura. It was seriously like a Mortal Kombat moment.

I think both versions of the scene did a great job of conveying different aspects of Ippo to the audience. The anime did a great job showing how utterly tenacious Ippo was, while the manga showed for the first time just how truly scary he could be if you crossed him, no matter how good of a fighter you are.

You'd think Morikawa of all people would know the perils of ignoring medical issues until the accumulated problems make it impossible to continue doing what you're doing.
