      If you could somehow locate the source text document, you could Ctrl + F for "Shades of grey." and subtract the number of results from 50,000. I'm sure it was just copied and pasted stemming from the very first sentence though.

    The gummy things you showed after the Calorie Mate stuff is called Mochi. It's a thick rice paste, sometimes with a savory (though in this case, fruity) jam-like stuff inside it.
    They are a bit flavourless on the outside, but they're REALLY good if you like the fruit involved.
    Also, the green pack is melon flavour.

    • @kis5140
      @kis5140 8 лет назад +27

      Eh, I personally found page 129 to be the height of the emotional development of the characters. It led into the climax yet described each character so perfectly and naturally beforehand, you never would've guessed. The climax itself gets too much attention I feel. I believe the little moments that further the development of the story as a whole are the most important.

      NineTailedLiligant it's probably more a case of opened vs unopened food. Food tends to last a while in its original packaging whereas if you get it out and leave it for a short period it can mould up pretty sharpish, that's my guess anyway.

    That expanding jelly sand (Sodium polyacrylate) is also used in soil to keep your plants watered while you're away. Just as in your video, it will soak up many times its own size in water, so if you have it mixed in with your potting soil, it will maintain a constantly moist soil until it dries, and also prevents overwatering.

    Those are Mochi. You review a different brand/quality of them in the next video with the century egg. I found that amusing as I binge watch your show that literally back to back you get the same food and in the newer video you didn't recognize them.
    Mochi can be hit or miss depending on the filling and personal tastes. I love the green tea ones. I know you hate tea so pfffft.

    Around the 15:00 mark, I remembered a figure I had gotten from Japan that looked like the figure in the left. It was something like Street Rider or something, and it was a hollow rubber thing that had no articulation whatsoever, and it came with a hardback book that was entirely in Japanese, and I have no idea what they were from or if they were a real thing at all. And the fact that I couldn't read Japanese made figuring it out so much more complicated. But it had the exact same color scheme, and it had a similar belt. It had red eyes, too, and it had little spikes on its head. If you have any idea what I'm talking about, please let me know.

    • @XenoRider

      Youre talking about Kamen Rider, :p to be more precise thats Kamen Rider Double from the series called "Kamen Rider W" :D the halfgreen/halfblack is his standard Rider form but other combinations of colours are possible through the use of Gaia Memories, USB-stick shaped thingys that are inserted in the belt :D the ones in this video are unofficial rip-off toys tho

    • @matthewweigel7856
      @matthewweigel7856 10 лет назад

      Lukas Vindevogel Yep, that's what it reminded me of. I lost the figure a long time ago, and since I don't live in Japan, I really have no way of getting them, and I haven't seen the exchange student who brought them in a few years either. I've never seen the series, so thanks for clarifying.
