An additional note to show the dichotomy of Sancho and Don While Don himself creates a lance that works like a windmill, high above the sky and charging downward, pushing others down to stop the dream of Sancho trying to use everything to his advantage to stop Sancho Sancho meanwhile uses the same Lance Don used long ago against Bari, the same lance that helped begin his dream that helped show there was a dim hope to live, launching himself against the impossible, defying everything, including the Bloodfiends will to never strike above their station, all the while the White Moon observes the winner Truly, this is the peak, the top of not just PM writing but also in general one of the best character moments in general to experience

[@AudibleNoiseContent]

Oh yeah I dont see Camille and Paula talked about much From what I interpret Camille and Puala is an stark contrast to what Don sees in a fixer Don sees fixers noble and pure intentioned individuals Whereas Camille seems almost purely motivated by fame. And Paula is motivated by just getting by and doing her job to earn her keep. Both dont seem to have any grander goals or dreams like protecting the weak or striking those assailants that harm the innocents. What adds to this is that it seems that Cinq and Zwei seem to be Don's favourite associations given the roles they play, protection and dueling and from the uptie stories and the flashbacks. The conflict comes when Don projects her unrealistic delusions onto them and they lash out in return. Because not everyone can have a dream and a noble one, some just want fame and some just want to get by. How would someone feel if they were doing their daily work, barely scraping by and someone goes "you need to work to end world hunger and conflicts, and stop climate change" Even if you have a dream, its impossible if you dont have the power to make it a reality as shown by the duel.

[@ryoshuirl]

I think they're not talked too much because of their small presence + what happens by the end, kind of a shame pmoon just discarded them that way

[@AudibleNoiseContent]

I really like the ideas canto 7 brings to the table That is okay to have a dream even its impossible, if its what gives life meaning and purpose. Having a dream that is impossible is not inherently childish or juvenile. There are many instances of children having unrealistic dreams that they slowly rid off as they grow older. Or parents once being those same children that got rid of their dreams, now transferring or perhaps coercing their children into continuing them, whether it be noble or ill intentioned. Or people being forced to face reality that their dream is just impossible. Or maybe its the fact that not everyone can or should have a dream in the first place. This canto explores many aspects of what makes a dream, how it affects the relationships they have with people around them and its effects good or bad to the self and the people around them. It explores many of the toxic and fulfilling parts of having a dream. I adore it for that.

[@CromwellEdonis]

Yeah. When you have nothing like Sancho. Your dream is the only thing that makes ‘reason’ to live in a cruel world. It’s something I can 100% relate since I’ve been to the same situation. No family, no friends, no connections, nothing except for myself.

[@emiliapiriciusstrevia267]

"I have lived nearly fifty years, and I have seen life as it is. Pain, misery, hunger ... cruelty beyond belief. I have heard the singing from taverns and the moans from bundles of filth on the streets. I have been a soldier and seen my comrades fall in battle ... or die more slowly under the lash in Africa. I have held them in my arms at the final moment. These were men who saw life as it is, yet they died despairing. No glory, no gallant last words ... only their eyes filled with confusion, whimpering the question, "Why?" I do not think they asked why they were dying, but why they had lived. When life itself seems lunatic, who knows where madness lies? Perhaps to be too practical is madness. To surrender dreams - this may be madness. To seek treasure where there is only trash. Too much sanity may be madness - and maddest of all: to see life as it is, and not as it should be!" - an excerpt from Man of La Mancha

[@user-garnet]

An interesting thing about human Sancho is that her eyes are brown. Obviously not vivid red, but also not the sparkling, bright yellow her Sinner self has. A nice detail to show how little joy human Sancho felt

[@mapledaz3353]

fun fact in many cultures "Blood" can be seen as something more it can represent connections, family, friendship. Even the term blood is thicker then water refers to this as it represents connections to family or a shared lineage. blood is often used in language that is supposed to connect people. whether people say blood of the nation there are referring to a collective group bound by blood refering to a connection. Bari saying the root illness of all bloodfiends is loneliness this hits twice as hard as I think bloodfiemds crave blood to feel apart of something. they create families to have connection but because most blodfiends do this unwillingly the connection is fake and flimsy, and because Don was willingly made a blodfiend she had no desire for a family as she already had one and had a lower desire for blood then other fiends as she had something filling her lonely void. anyway thats my 2 cents no one asked for.

[@Robocrab-td8dr]

Personally, I'm glad you shared those 2 cents! Also, this comment makes me realize that Sancho shifted from the mentality of "blood is thicker than water" to that of "the blood of the covenant is thicker than the waters of the womb" because we made her start dreaming again by making her realize that verily, she has a (found) family of 12

[@strangevol5264]

Well, bloodfiends are similar to distortions. Where distortions exist as an embrace of what one believes themselves to be, bloodfiends are defined by what they desire: typically, blood. However, that is not the only thing that can sustain them. They can feast upon a different desire, if it’s given to them, as with Don Quixote and his dream of being a Fixer. It became his desire, rather than the desire of consuming blood.

It probably has a lot to do with how you relate to each Sinners story.....Everyone can respect the well written Cantos for their artful storytelling but the extra hit depends on an individual persons story........Someone who has had a rough time with a partner or lover is going to be hit by Canto VI more for example

[@PanzerIVAE]

Canto 7 really displays what I really love about the main thesis of Project Moon. That you should go on. That you must go on. That you shall go on. Continue living, continue changing, and continue dreaming no matter what life gives you. It's going to be hard. It's going to be painful. It's going to be a struggle. Project Moon doesn't pretend it won't be. But they instill the hope that it is worth it.

[@eidolonbaa]

this canto comforted me in a way that i didn't know i needed. aside from the core topics it holds, there's also another little message it wishes to tell, in a slightly more subtle way; no matter who you are, even if you're a "monster", there will always be someone who will look past your flaws and love you as you are, and help you break that label that causes you so much suffering. the same way bari did with don quixote, and the same way the sinners did with sancho; everyone deserves to live a fulfilling life, surrounded by people who love you and the dreams you hold.

[@nebulasmessiah]

i wonder if "the dream ending" was chosen not only because of father don's dream ending and the other interpretations, but also because sancho, now taken the name of don quixote, is no longer oblivious nor "asleep", therefore she has effectively "woken up" and is no longer "dreaming" she is still going to follow the dream for sure, but she isnt dreaming in the sense of sleeping/being oblivious anymore, evident by her announcer and possibly more in the next intervallos

[@izzymosley1970]

This story means a lot to me. Ever since I was young I have always had a dream to have perfect discipline to be able to endure any amount of suffering and deny any amount of pleasure to always do what I think is the right thing or the necessary things. But somehow I forgot about that dream and I started to live my life with bare minimum effort simply trying to avoid as much pain and have as much pleasure everyday without any greater goal. But after being inspired by this story and wanting to be like Sancho I thought about any dreams that I had and that no matter how unlikely it would be for me to achieve that dream I would pursue it to the best of my ability. And ever since I made that decision the best way I can describe it is it feels like how I assume it feels to wake up from being drunk from alcohol even though I've never been drunk on alcohol before that's the best way I can describe it. And now I am currently striving for that dream and I will use the inspiration I got from this story for as long as I live. And for anyone who has read this comment to the end thank you I was writing this comment for myself and because this comment is long and probably full of grammatical errors I assume most people won't read to this part which is why I thank you for putting up with this long self-indulgent probably poorly written comment.

[@PatronLibrarianHod]

Our Don wanted to doom both Dante and the Sinners to an eternity in the WARP Train before her shoes went off, the Don of Lamancha Land manages to punish his Family by sealing them within the world he has created with blood but with temporary setbacks due to Sanson's interference. However here, the one who punishes ironically has given up on his dream and the other carries it in their stead. All dreams are molded by the influence of others, and twisted by those who achieve their dreams to their ends. Sancho wanted to be forgotten, and the world gifted her a Father to care for by mere coincidence. A Father illed to eternal boredom by his immortality, everything he wishes to try out eventually never became full-on passions of his. Both of them differ from the rest of their Children because their hunger for blood was never anything important, but the dreams they both shared that were influenced by the stories of those beyond the confines of their isolation. If their other Children were told those stories and went with the adventure, I think they can carve a brighter future. Yet he is hesitant because as it seemed to me, he is concerned about their safety without them even knowing that. Because they all live long lives, they are forced to endure all those years of being alone and estranged while bearing the responsibility of the dream he laid upon. All of them became no different than the Fixers we tagged along for the job, with the exception of Xichun and possibly her compatriots if they ever make it out, as her goal reaches beyond money or killing others for the sake of killing. This Parade that repeats for eternity, ends with the end of one's dream. Just like what Bari had promised, and what the Sephirah represents as Dante resonates once more to gallop onward; The Eye Facing The Fear; Breaking the Cycle

[@Apt23-v8u]

It's Even worse because they live in a world where all horrible things in all analogue horror had won and is not a good place, i think don was concious of that fact and well is very sad, there wasnt a cute adventure, only horror stories 😢

[@Magnolia-SpiderLily]

What I absolutely love about Project moon games is that, from a glance, the whole world seems like the run of the mill grimdark story. if someone would hear the descriptions of the city, people would probably think that it's from a Warhammer lore book or something. But unlike Warhammer, where everything is lost and the only thing that remain in the world is it's dark and twisted versions. If you read into the stories that PM choses to tell i dont get the sense of "everything is hopeless" ya know what i mean? Sure the world is fucked up, but i cant help but see a glimmer of hope permeating in the seams (at least thats the feeling im able to gleam from the games) canto 7 for me perfectly captures what i see when im looking into this world created by project moon. yeah of course its not all sunshine and rainbows, but its also not just pure darkness and hopelessness, there's a faint dream it might even be an impossible one. but as long as there's a small spark of light, then there also lies hope for the future.

La Mancha roughly translates to "land without water" (which is hella ironic considering what La ManchaLand is in PMverse). So, "Don Quixote de la mancha" isn't a name persay but a title of sorts "Don Quixote of the Land Without Water"

Good analysis, for bloodfiends it all comes down to their Lust/Desire for filling "their void of heart" with something, but this something doesnt have to be blood. It makes perfect sense that its "all in your head" based on Bari´s word alone. ( I want answers bookhunter! ) Hopefully the uptie story for Sanchos seasonal ID will add more info and give us some insigt about her own view about that entire situation.

[@tapseymoth803]

There is one other interpretation that while I don’t think it was intended but is still neat is viewing Sancho from a neuropsych angle. A bit of preamble first. Sancho most likely has adhd, a psychological phenomenon that is largely caused by an abnormally low amount of dopamine causing the behavior pattern of not being able to focus because we are desperately trying to find stimuli that makes us feel good. And one of the main ways that its treated is with amphetamines, stimulants that for normal brains cause a euphoric manic of rush of energy that when abused can completely consume one’s life (similar to how the bloodfiends respond when they encounter blood). But the thing about when someone with adhd takes a monitored dose of those controlled substances, it actually mellows us out because we no longer feel that emotional void that comes from just having low amounts of that neurotransmitter. I like the idea that the reason why Sancho doesn’t display the same manic episode as the other bloodfiends is because the blood is supernaturally balancing her brain’s dopamine supply. Giving her the thing she lacked before becoming a bloodfiend so that she can enjoy life. Im 99.99% sure this wasn’t actually intended by PM but as someone with adhd its why Sancho’s character arc resonated with me and wanted to share why ^^

[@dishsoap4588]

thank you for this video guy, this canto made me ugly cry even before the end just because i realized just what kind of a story the canto was telling. but just a little tid bit of my own but, i personally felt that sancho probably felt her own fair share of fear when sinclair suggested that maybe she could still continue following her dream, especially after she's seen just how badly that dream ended up for her father. tying back to the bit about some parents putting too much emphasis on high paying jobs, especially in certain countries, it can be really daunting to want to do something that is considered 'undesirable' as a job, even if other people have made a living of it for themselves. mostly just because you can never be sure if you yourself will make it. anyhow, thank you for spreading the canto vii gospel, glory to project moon

[@nulls5408]

Not only does the bloodfiends desire for blood (and the withdrawal they feel without it) resembles an addictive substance that’s compounded upon by living a sad, aimless and unending life. But as someone with autism I see that the stigma that makes them different from other humans weighs heavily on them. Resigning themselves to be the negative things people associate with that part of them they cannot “fix”, not having the strength to continuously rebuke it after so long.

[@blizarion2477]

Yeah, i absolutely like how they draw the parallel between bloodfiends desire for blood and adiction to alcohol/drugs/etc, like both are purely psychological desires, both try to fill the void/loneliness/depression in their heart with addiction, blood is similar to emotions for vampires like drugs/smoking make you high/ relieve your stress, both can bring far worse consequences, and people that have purpose/dreams/love don't need the addiction to feel smth. Okay, thats too much yapping for a comment that no one will read xd

[@ketereissmore3967]

Yea, as someone who has been diagnosed with autism and ended up having all my parental conflicts blamed on me when I was diagnosed(in the sense that my own being was implied to be the source of my parents' sufferings by my parents), I actually interpreted it as a representative of neurodiversity at first. I'm in no way saying neurodiversity is anywhere close to being as harmful as an addictive thirst of blood, but they share the loneliness. And in a traditional place like Korea where family honour and success is viewed heavily, many neurodiverse people would likely made to feel just like a bloodfiend

[@katsudonken9830]

At first i never really resonated with the canto at first, probably cause right now I never really had a dream or goal to pursue.

Unironically a skill issue on part of Lamanachaland's bloodfiends.

Im also worried what exactly is gonna happen between Doncho and Faust. Because im not gonna sugarcoat it, the Sinners survival depended *entirely* on Doncho dreaming again as not only was Papa Don an unwinnable encounter without her, she herself would have swept them if she really wanted to.

Cervantes ended the tales of the adventures of Don Quixote with him just... dying sane, his delutions fading away and finally admiting he is not noble Knight but just (If i remember correcty) Alonso Quixano a fool that let his brain get rotten by classic knight fantasies... All while his family/friends ,who throught the whole 2 books went crazy traying to get him back, suffering seeing how reality hurted as much as his deluisions did. All of that while Sancho, the anchor that kept him near reality enough to not kill himself and the wings that allowed him to soar for a bit when too close to reality just... pleaded to him to continue dreaming, just one more time, one last adventure. And... as always the limbus version gives us an ending that continues the history just a bit longer and provide us a bittersweet or straight up inspiring ending. (At least from canto 4 onward, the other 3 are more open ended, specially Gregors and Rodya) Yi sang found that his broken wings were able to fly, Ishmael broke the cycle of revenge and found a compass of her own, Heathcliff remembered the importance of those patches of violets in a colorless mannor and now Sancho became the Hero once Don Quixote couldn't keep up and carried his dream as her own, name included XD. 10/10 would dream again and im hyped to see the changes in our blond chaos gremlin here onward.

Yeah, supresses everything else of her bloodfiend nature but the bloodthirst remains. That does make me wonder if she ate hemobars while at the lighthouse or something, since the bloodfiends at Lamanachaland can be implied to have survived on leftover hemobars since they could be mass produced with little blood. at least up until it started manifesting in the City again and luring in people to drink like a capri sun.

Even now, the ending of this Canto keeps bringing me to tears. I swear, each Canto is making me cry more and more.

[@gameboom7579]

voice acting lets goo, also you did super good as vergilius in freys don video

[@radicuol]

I love how theatrical this canto was, It was like reinforcing the idea the fiction is a lens that people to see a better future

[@roxashunter8879]

Using Silent Tales as an opening soundtrack should be considered a warcrime on a psychological level. I'm impressed at how fats you managed to write this video ! I really love your analysis.

[@kariellokwell914]

Each chapter of this game hits me in very sensitive places. And to everyone who stops to read, sorry this comment is going to be long... In my case, I have a dream that people can find hope and have the opportunity to dream of a better tomorrow... a dream that i take the banner from the hands of the first person I loved in my life and my grandfather... Both had similar ideals, both fought in their own way to achieve their dream... but never saw it realized... My first love... She tried to help with sports and literature to people with addiction problems and troubled teenagers... She belived that some sweat and mental work will help, but she ended up stabbed in an assault by one of the boys she tried to help... My grandfather ... sought to fight with the union and student movements of the 70's, helping to create labor and educational rights for his children and grandchildren ... in the end no one he fought for, or who fought with end up remembered him ... my family treated him as a dead weight when due to an accident he could no longer work and lost the ability to walk... And when he end up passing away, he end up doing it alone... I know that my search is... a terrible and painful path, guided by an illusion ... I know that choosing to make games and their narrative like the means to fulfill that dream is one of the most difficult or even imposible ways to do it, I know that i ended up in ruin... but I believe in the dream... in that little spark... But some times is a heavy burden, one that i can't share because it's my dream... And maybe... Because i don't want others to suffer for it... But... Every day i say to me "This is not only your dream, is the dream of many more, at least of two loved ones... Keep going... Keep chasing the dream... Keep the spark living..."

[@RussianCollapse]

Ah yes, Canto VII. The Canto of living up the impossible expectations, the Canto of Dreams, the Canto if being lost for a meaning of life before finding that one small twinkling star; An unachievable dream.

[@stuckerfan2563]

Tsunul canto analysis just dropped Let's go

[@Tam-Ezrac]

Tsuni-boy this is your best video yet hands down, if I wasn’t so sleepy I could gush about it for 3 paragraphs straight! As for my feelings on the Canto itself, they’re kinda mixed, the whole Fixer thing at the beginning smelled of a dropped plot point, and in comparison to the other Cantos it’s on the lower end of my list(still better than 99% of fiction) In spite of it’s stumbles, when faced with what it wanted to achieve, it learned how to get back up and ran towards that dream, and all I can really say is, that I like it, flaws and all.

[@justafurry9400]

I just have to say... thank you Tsunul, this video was just absolutely beautiful. Not only did it make me appreciate the Canto so much more than i already do, which i thought was impossible, but you just communicated everything perfectly for me. The message you gave is exactly what i wanted to hear, you added other parts such as the "imposing your dream upon others" which i did not think about before, and managed to caught the same or at least a close emotion to what i felt during the Canto. just. beautiful.

[@iceing11]

This truly is a video most ingenious. The dramatic beats of the editing is truly the dream ending.

[@ThePieSaus]

This was an excellent analysis as always Tsunal, I want to add my own interpretation of your thoughts on how having a dream quelled the blood thirst. Firstly, Don Quixote is a story about escapism and that and addiction go hand in hand. The only ones to describe the hunger as unbearable are those who betrayed Big Don in the first place. The blood thirst really subtly showcased addiction really well. Rather than the hemobars leaving them hungry it was more they left them unsatisfied. Deeply unsatisfied. Addicts will do anything to sate that addiction and do anything they can to justify their behavior. It's why its poetic that Bari "gifted" Big Don with a dream to change them. Most people addicted to drugs are homeless, destitute, or depressed. There are parallels between that and the bloodfiends, and I think it's especially why Big Don didn't see the betrayal coming because having something to live for makes it easier to break an addiction like that.

[@ryuzxa]

29:38 I commented this on other video I watch but what I love about this scene is that Sancho starts from "La Manchaland" to "LCB" to "Sinner #3". It's a small thing but I love that they did that just like what they did with Ahab at the end of Canto V.

[@LCB_Meyneth]

ive genuinely been so looking forward to these Canto videos, great as always

[@TheRedGaze_Official]

yum! hemobars! i eat at least 8 of them every morning! make sure to eat your hemobars too!

[@Narifamen]

'Neath Dark Waters? Get the fuck out of here Tsunul, I'm not emotionally ready for that again!

[@Apt23-v8u]

Really 😮

[@vitogunnhilder]

Thank you for the analysis. I’ve been internalizing the lesson of this Canto, but seeing it shared here is just so relieving. Man, the best thing about Project Moon’s works is that you can really apply them to our modern day. This is why this is TRUE PEAK FICTION.

[@Konkon-gg5id]

Thank you for the canto explanation/summary. As much as I love reading through the story, there are many things I misunderstood and you've present it well to understand

[@Kaiserdesmondes]

Ah yes, Tsunul cooking up another fantastic video as always.

[@onion5391]

i really really like this canto its so fucking good

[@Cherryb3rrycake]

Canto 7 aka the sobbing at the early hours of the morning over a quick time event I’m kidding of course but I wonder what will occur with the next canto’s as there’s more stories relating to family coming up In fact there’s an argument that every sinner is connected by their complex feelings of family, whether biological or not, and how joining the company gave them that purpose back. Quite interesting to think about Good video as always :)

[@thomasthecoolkid7228]

And we start off with some nice voicework from Frey! My personal thoughts on Sancho's not starving is that she likely ate raw meat, as shown in Hell's Chicken with her having consumed raw Distortion chickens without much issue. Raw meat has a decent bit of blood, so it could've very likely staved off her cravings.

[@ErrorNameNotFound-dg7gd]

Sancho! I have conceived an idea most ingenious. I shall watch this video whilst consuming mine supper!

[@doctorhealsgood5456]

Just had an idea. What if you add Canned Experience to Hemobars somehow? Might help. Well the issue probably is getting canned experience on the first place but maybe the hemobars can be salvaged.

[@ArthurLodar]

I'm literally crying right now. Don Qixote, may thou Adventures go forth, as thou dreams continue as well, as thou know thy purpose of your life.

[@wonderfulworld2746]

Its hilarious to see Sancho so different from the one in the books 😂 anyway, PM did a great adaptation and I’m a huge fan of the original books 🤩

[@Hayami_VT]

Limbus tops another Canto AGAIN and Tsunul back with another peak analysis! Including the ending parts of Canto 7 had me tearing up all over again.

[@LongNguyen-cz5ty]

29:37 just notice a small detail, her name description turned from sancho to quixote, then don quixote

[@auser6729]

Her titles even change from "La Manchaland" > LCB > LCB > Sinner #3

[@auser6729]

Project Peak at its Finest

[@ultrio325]

I hope that when we get to Dante's Canto, Sancho will be the ONE

[@netherlord5959]

This canto's message truly is about following your dream no matter what, because successful or not, I am who I am! 🎆

[@GuppyVlogs]

To dream, the impossible dream

[@jammerthebaws4287]

While heathcliff's canto was awesome, and Ishmaels was a wild ride, This canto felt weirdly very personal in ways I couldn't put into words, or maybe didn't want to. But I'd say you hit the nail on the head....repeatedly. That idea of parents trying to sculpt their kids into what they want them to be instead of what or who they actually are, hurts personally.

[@revagong8918]

My dream is to see Tsunul uploads as much as I can!!!! (This channel got me into arknights and I’m grateful)

[@javisan-zq1wg]

cried again, peaketh this video was

[@MagoDraws]

Out of all the canto’s so far (with the exception of Canto 5), never has one been able to absolutely break me as much as Canto 7 did.

[@crimsonfoxonusae4472]

The lance having "Impossible dream" Inscribed into it makes a *lot* of sense, we were wondering what the canto would be about and we barely glaced at the biggest clue staring right in our face

[@shihotarou917]

Tsun burn has cooked an idea most ingenious

[@xarksins]

Everyone has a dreams but for many they don't have the means or will to discover that dream. I once dreamed of living a mundane life to go thought the same senseless routine everyday while mocking people with the means and passion to invest in a hobby. But ever since I tried cosplaying that has been my dream to make my own costume and show off to people even with my subpar skills and lack of motivation.

[@thuxuan9683]

The ending was very beautiful.😭😭😭

[@Ambreil]

just call him dad quixote

[@VietNguyen-xs1ne]

The bloodfiends of Lamanchaland are probably the most realistic and tragic example of the "always chaotic evil" trope and addiction. How do you reconcile primal urges with modern standards? They tried, and yet they failed spectacularly, so much so that I really felt bad putting them down.

[@Fernisvale]

every new canto at this point is just harvesting our tears to draw energy into an even more sad yet hopeful canto the next time

[@yaboy7744]

Man. Hong lu's canto is so good, can't wait for don quixote's canto to come

[@ReguranLeori]

Ah... I get it now... The life you experience won't be a book's fairy tale, far from it, your dream will be tested time and time again. A lot is lost in the progress but likewise a lot can be gained. For most people a dream shall remain within the definition of the word, but for those who dared to wager their whole being upon that dream...those who had the courage to do so shall find different meanings of the word, some will fail regardless, but other's will succeed and become The Hero of the fairy tales carved upon what was once A Dream. Whether A Dream is carved into an Epic, a Tragedy or just ends in nothing, no one knows. Maybe all that effort throughout one's life was useless. However, the choice of laying down on the rubble and gazing at the stars in the darkness of the night or deciding to build a ladder, no matter how feeble, to try to reach such stars is always an opinion that is fully dependent on one self. Perhaps the journey toward the stars is, itself, what fuels their incandescent light.

[@maksxiao-san]

... You know. Today I finished canto 7. Oh boy, it's been so great and so painful... Painful because I chose a relic that bleeds one of the siners by 10 and gives buffs... In the end, when I beat the final boss, I saw it. I saw THE PEAK. All my suffering has been rewarded. And yes, this canto hits only in the final dungeon where all the pieces are collected together and shown the full story.

[@KusaKouhai]

Awesome possum, my take away from playing it myself was fake it till you make it lol also if you're 200+ years old and still touching tips with your dad... "Stop It, Get Some Help" I'm kidding I enjoy your summaries that's why I always come back for more resulting in me digesting more brainrot and getting redpilled by the chat but it's completely worth it. Thanks for the analysis.

[@Sandwichs5]

Damn this video just left me wordless

[@Xcluxide]

I love the part where he said "I have conceived an idea most ingenious" and then conceived all over the place, truly one of the ideas conceived of all times 🗣🗣

[@GunthokTheMental]

Their games have just been so good. I really wish Project Moon could become a well known name. Maybe someday we could get an adaptation that would introduce more people to these stories.

[@ANightattheOpera28]

I would love to see an anime come out!

[@thuxuan9683]

29:44 Don Quixote is no more, but Don Quixote is still alive and they will keep dreaming for the impossible even though they might fail but they will keep dreaming because that dream is the tomorrow they're looking for.

[@ivoryphysician5115]

Whimsy? Check Wack, dirty old trainers? Glued to feet (most of the time) Incredible depression and the inability to escape from reality whilest striving for an impossible dream? Most definitely Oh yeah it’s Don Quixote time

[@Infestivity]

A 30 minutes tsunul video about Don quixote?? Hell No, i have more things to do..Maybe later
