I just realized that since the man keeps being reincarnated into different things, that implies the objects are immediately destroyed after the episode, causing new reincarnations
Well given the fact that we (I think) are not schoolgirls, we have little to worry about *The Man* and his existence within our objects. If he is any of the things I have done erotic, hilarious, or fetishistically charged consumption with, that's a horror for him, and just say to day bs for me.
This synopsis sounds like some horror story about a criminal who can't leave purgatory and is forced to reincarnate from one thing to another until his sins are redeemed. Especially the chicken one.
"Chickens would be cannibals too if they were smart" As the former owner of many chickens, it is my pleasure to tell you that chickens ARE cannibals. They are vicious, horrible, adorable sweet little creatures.
this seems like such an existential horror series. After the cute girl leaves and you're just a sentient object with no way to move, no way to talk, sensing everything. Truly it is "I have no mouth but I must scream" except worse because girls are having carefree high school days near your unending torture.
Also they occasionally come and lick your ears, which would be my *personal* hell... Somehow I think the creator of this series feels differently though....
I kept thinking about the bike I had when I was a teen. It's abandoned inside an old trash pile now. Wouldn't like to imagine being stuck in there until the sun explodes.
I am creating a new category of forbidden anime consisting entirely of series that made me say this. Didn't think I'd ever get one below "How is this legal to broadcast?" on the list, but life is full of surprises.
There’s anime about the author’s barely disguised fetishes, then there’s shows like this where it just is the author’s fetishes without any any attempt to hide that fact.
Imagine reincarnating as a door in an abandoned building. Built for a purpose, but never used. Or as a single garbage bag in a landfill, crushed under the weight of hundreds of pounds of trash forever, or until you're picked up and carelessly tossed into a trash incinerator, your last thoughts after years of being crushed being the agony of a second death
the deadpan psychological horror of this series(?) of videos is unparalleled in how much my skin crawls at nothing but factual descriptions. excellent work
Ikr i felt like i actually watched the show watching this where as when i watch the actual show i fall asleep and can't get past the 2nd episode cause of how boring it is despite the fact that every episode was like 8-10 minutes long or something
"Panda the lesbian is here to scare us straight." By far one of your all time best written lines. This was a delightful acid trip the whole video through. Don't ever stop.
I must say, you did a bang-up job turning *MAN'S* adventures from the attempted light-hearted/slightly raunchy comedy it wanted to be, to the absolute horror it really was. And be careful, dear reader... For *MAN* could be anywhere... or anything!
On tumblr years ago, someone talked about how their classmate wrote this really introspective story about a dying and fusing with a sidewalk, being forced to reflect on his lack of action and regrets as a human.... Ans then they revealed it also has uncomfortably descriptive prose about being stepped on by different types of womens feet. Anyway this is like that to me
the chicken bit reminded me of that SCP article where the article itself is classed as an SCP because it contains the knowledge of what occurs after death
they really created one of the most tortured characters possible because they took a regular dude and turned him into various inanimate objects including food that got eaten and had him experience unending helplessness and likely great amounts of pain just within reach of some kids just having fun, as if to heighten his pain by comparing it to their happiness
I was already prepared for Moomin Marriage due to a previous engagement. Same goes for the 7 anime used as your examples. But nothing could've prepared me for the Man.
You know, the vending machine isekai doesn’t seem all that weird now.

But at least it didn’t make me want to introduce a shovel to my skull. *Like this Anime……..*
@@cameronjadewallace Agreed! I went into the show with the mindset of “eh, probably not gonna be that good, but it should be entertaining at least.” And now it’s one of my favorites of this season of anime.
Every once in a while I see something I'm partly convinced was made up on the spot to fuck with me specifically, and right now I'm genuinely astounded to see this isn't one of those times and is, in fact, a real thing that real people collectively got together and decided needed to be a real thing. If this isn't the sign that we are broken as a species, please show me what is left to break.
Honestly? I'm fuckin with this new style. It feels like Expoint has finally blossomed from someone who thinks he's right and will argue, even if in a funny manner, why with logic and fax (tm) into someone who knows he's right and has fun with it. Genuinely my favorite video of his yet.
Everyone is talking about the horror of the man being frozen in objects, but personally I'm terrified by the idea that any object in this universe could be a horny man watching you be a lesbian.
he sounds so done with anime, but he can't be done with anime because the internet demands blood tribute and for some reason he thought that meant content about anime.
I would unironically like a show about a dude reincarnating as some inanimate object that can communicate, or just any kind of weird guy that, instead of creeping on teenage girls, is actually trying to help them with their personal problems. Boosts their confidence, helps them foster relationships, provides emotional support... Bonus points if he remains as Just A Dude with little motive beyond just "I wanna see these young women live their best lives!".
"The Anime Where..." is one of the few series that makes me excited everytime I see a new one. "A gentle G-rated queer-bation" is not even the most amazing line.
About 30 seconds in I realized this was going to be another "this anime is super fucking weird, here's a recap". I very much enjoyed the last one with the moomin but I didn't exactly have time so I watched this at 2x speed. It was an absolute amazing fever dream experience and I loved it. Great video

When I heard the description, I thought this was going to be horror. Now, I am aware that this is horror. I am ever so slightly afraid of my surroundings, even knowing I am not in an isekai anime.

I thought this was gonna be about a mimic (the kind that can willingly turn itself into an object and then back into a human form whenever it wants to) stalking a bunch of women (as in, 18+) and the women are aware of their predicament but have no way of knowing which object the mimic is so they have to go into detective mode to figure it out and kill the mimic. I hate to say it, but I’m disappointed we got this instead. Both scenarios are horrifying, but at least my scenario sounds like an interesting thriller with a potential metaphorical/analogous commentary on illegal spy cam crimes, and where hopefully the women would win against the mimic in the end.

This has horrifying implications is literally every object in existence possessed by a sentenced person. It's not that any single object could be the *man*, but all of them are.

Since I didn’t see it anywhere in the comments 14:50 : 決戦の日 (Kessen no hi) means “Decisive Battle Day” which could mean like a day of a planned assault. Panda has been planning to ask out Yuri for a while now it seems. Girls can give chocolates on Valentine’s Day to show romantic interest. 1 month later (White Day) the person can respond if they are interested back.
I often struggle with putting together stories I can feel proud of. Then I hear about stuff like this, getting made into an entire licensed anime that must have cost AT LEAST hundreds of yen to make. It's truly inspiring.
This is just the male gaze but like... to a psychotic degree. Reminds me of that quote by Margaret Atwood that there is always a man inside your head looking voyeurlistically at you whenever you think you are safe
i'm glad this show is getting more attention (for being so completely weird). I made my own video on it a few months back, proclaiming it the worst show of 2022 and thinking literally no one else would ever mention it. I guess I should have viewed it as a true horror masterpiece.
I request that you please try to explain to me wtf is happening in Pani Poni Dash. I watched an episode of that anime with three friends. two were blindingly drunk, one was not, and I was not, and we all understood it the same amount. in fact, my drunk friends may have had an improved experience with it because they had already given up on trying. please please please, explain what is happening, or at least riff on that anime within an inch of it's life.
When I watched that one Netflix romcom about the girl who's being forced into dating-sim scenarios by a cold unfeeling Godlike wizard I wished it was going to drop it's veneer at any moment and become a psychological horror, but instead the wizard becomes part of the male harem she's accumulating.

Since I didn’t see it anywhere in the comments 14:50 : 決戦の日 (Kessen no hi) means “Decisive Battle Day” which could mean like a day of a planned assault. Panda has been planning to ask out Yuri for a while now it seems. Girls can give chocolates on Valentine’s Day to show romantic interest. 1 month later (White Day) the person can respond if they are interested back.
Omg, this is a lot more entertaining than the show itself!😂😂😂😂
I often struggle with putting together stories I can feel proud of.
Then I hear about stuff like this, getting made into an entire licensed anime that must have cost AT LEAST hundreds of yen to make. It's truly inspiring.
This is just the male gaze but like... to a psychotic degree. Reminds me of that quote by Margaret Atwood that there is always a man inside your head looking voyeurlistically at you whenever you think you are safe
i'm glad this show is getting more attention (for being so completely weird). I made my own video on it a few months back, proclaiming it the worst show of 2022 and thinking literally no one else would ever mention it. I guess I should have viewed it as a true horror masterpiece.
So by taking a run of the mill slice of life and simply making the viewer an in-universe character it miraculously transforms into weird as fuck.
my fucking god the way you talk in these videos kills me. can’t wait for the next one
you have no idea how much i love these "anime where a..." videos. i need more. i know its probably limitted based on how rare these weird things are
I request that you please try to explain to me wtf is happening in Pani Poni Dash. I watched an episode of that anime with three friends. two were blindingly drunk, one was not, and I was not, and we all understood it the same amount. in fact, my drunk friends may have had an improved experience with it because they had already given up on trying.
please please please, explain what is happening, or at least riff on that anime within an inch of it's life.
The musical backing really takes this to the next level.
When I watched that one Netflix romcom about the girl who's being forced into dating-sim scenarios by a cold unfeeling Godlike wizard I wished it was going to drop it's veneer at any moment and become a psychological horror, but instead the wizard becomes part of the male harem she's accumulating. Your description of this anime maked me remember that and wish it became horror all over again.
Wait but what's actually the name of that anime?

You.. are really, really fucking funny. I want you to know you've had me belly laugh on multiple occasions with this video. Very well done.
Not just any man, but Tomokazu Sugita lol, the only reason why I watched this show
This video has a certain unhinged, yet calm energy that makes it really funny to me.
"Who, despite her name, is not a digimon."
How often are you gonna hear something like that?
This is "I have no mouth and I must scream." except framed like it's a good thing.
"The thin, flexible, and regularly demarcated *MAN*"
This is the funniest thing I’ve seen in quite some time. Thanks for your commitment to the bit!
"Is being eaten an indirect kiss?" isn't a thought I wanted in my noggin
"How hard it is to be a sucker." Really need to use that line
this anime is the best argument against the existence of a loving creator
Correction, chickens are absolutely cannibals if given the opportunity.
You are consistently one of the funniest youtubers
