[@plumdowner1941]

A baby never arrives late, she arrives precisely when she means to. Tiny legs can only carry you so fast.

[@thomasbardoux1692]

This comment will result in death

[@derryair9419]

"Ugh I have an appointment with a box of wine" I could actually see Emet saying that. Thats very much in character

[@SirVyre]

Damn, Space Mom really did take the kids in the divorce. Even taught them to hate Space Dad.

[@Reynsoon]

*second dream intensifies*

[@DaSuDanesi]

To be fair, Space Dad kept eating half the kids.

[@mrblackjacker32.03]

Are we talking about Crystal Space Mom or the Substitutive Space Mom that used us to angst against Space Dad after having him stab us with the puppet of his choice and we lost the Origin System?

[@cashman1228]

Its been so long since the last Mad Because Small that I thought the series was dead. I just hit the acceptance phase in the stages of grief. This is the best day ever!

[@Boethion]

I too am shocked and happy this series continues as I assumed he was still pretty burned out by the game, but I suppose content creation is a different mindset than doing the actual content.

[@clockworksage2553]

"I have an appointment with a box of wine" Look, I know he's nigh immortal, but did you have to try to kill that hard?!

[@ICountFrom0]

The puns get worse and worse, to the point of causing my pain, and I love it more every time.

[@KianaWolf]

It's not a good pun unless it causes pain.

[@ICountFrom0]

Yes, thus the concept of pun-ishment.

[@MeagenImage]

If I had a gil for every time Y'Shtola got herself caught in the Lifestream and we had to go ask a powerful ancient being to bring her back, I'd have two gil. Which is not a lot, but it's still weird that it happened twice.

[@Sebsationa1]

My lalafell is set to minimum height and is named Five-foot Eleven

[@arthurdowney2846]

It's so genius to keep the opening lines consistent. I can recite along like a liturgy of glee.

[@unknowngirl2714]

Yaaaay, I was waiting for the shin eater joke since the first part of ShB

[@Mary_Kote]

And it was never continued. Press F

[@boxinthefield]

It was worth the wait, your bars have been great. If you need a goad, we'll patiently await the next episode

[@deficit06]

10:10 As a viera player, I feel personally attacked by this clip XDD

[@Gamemaster-64]

Mad Because No Helm

[@FluffieXStarshine]

yes

[@Beryllahawk]

Honestly I was surprised he didn't say "no helm because clipping issues"

[@Wastingsometimehere]

Viera players: Angry

[@veilofmemory]

As a viera player, I too felt that pain 🤣

[@rebellyanmagic6409]

"Beat two Light gods but afraid of random old man" sums up why I hate Ran'jit so much

[@Shadest]

Dude didnt even get to be a dungeon boss, you fight him at the end of a solo duty and smoke him in like a minute.

[@Maddog3060]

Glad I'm not the only one ticked off that we've beaten all kinds of things that make some random old guy look weak but he's like Zenos 2.0 without even the explanation of being some evil empire superscience experiment. Just an old dude. So he's a monk? So is the WoL (potentially) and yet we still gotta hide from him like he's doom incarnate? Worst part of the expansion.

[@Blazingbeard]

Such a sweet guy that Gaius, asking people what they fight for, what they believe in. Just keeping it real you know. Making painstakingly sure people have the right belief and reasons to fight for.

[@iantaakalla8180]

That is true, he would know the downfalls of committing oneself to the worst side (ARR battle in the Praetorium)

[@Artista_Frustrado]

shoutouts to Cider Spider for remembering Y'shtola 's blindness more than the actual writers glad to see a new Mad Because Small, for I'm too jealous of tall

[@DaSuDanesi]

To be fair, it's usually a non-issue due to almost everything having at least SOME aether. And if I recall correctly, she had trouble seeing the Blasphemies/Terminus Beasts during the Final days, since they were mostly Dynamis and had very little aether, if any.

[@Artista_Frustrado]

@@DaSuDanesi yeah the whole "oh turns out everything reflects Aether anyway" might as well be the same as not making her blind

[@mithiwithi]

The supposed downside of aetherial vision is that it burns out her life force, but the writers haven't done much with that either.

[@Yolashillinia]

@@mithiwithi Somebody told me recently that it's even less of an issue in the Japanese version, apparently the English version is the only one that it's really a thing in.

[@vindurza]

and because we've gone on the journey of all the achievements the mad will stay stalled.

[@aircraftcarrierwo-class]

Too late, Thancred's already past 40 in anime years, his knees are already destroyed.

[@Gravewhisper]

To be continued HOPEFULLY you mean! Please bring this series to its conclusion!

[@jroberts2nd]

I’m gonna call Emet Cruella DeVille forever now 😂

[@redwitch12]

I just love that he has an appointment with a *box* of wine, like he's a day-drinking suburban mom or something

[@Tailionis]

This is where i get my recaps when I forget the story. So informative. Keep um coming!

[@mattwo7]

Happy because more Mad Because Small.

[@pyyro1114]

that yshtola 2nd death and rebirth really just had me sigh on my first playthrough, i remember

[@lemonadesparkle4994]

I don't play XIV so everything I know about the plot of the game I learned from this channel and tbh I understand not a goddamn thing

[@lanah_tyra]

"I have an appointment with a box of wine kbye" I guess I'll just leave work like this on Mondays when I already had enough after 5 minutes into the day XD

[@seankkg]

Bringing up the password journal is a deep cut my dude.

[@michaelstaege7945]

Still hillarious stuff to come back to! Hoping for a continuation when DT drops :D

[@flusterfluff]

"Swiftcast Banish L3" my beloved

[@jaeusa160]

Just shows how insanely dense Shadowbringers is. XD

[@itsmoggintime]

A tiny kupo worthy of destruction And she doesnt even need an introduction

[@Hgdrifter]

Mad because la-hee

[@matthewhostetter8974]

A year later and the maddest of all babies returns. Another great video Cider. Hopefully, we won't have to wait another year for the next one. Also, Release the Cider Cut!

[@wenxue2222]

When she gets to meet the loporrits - oh what a day that will be!!! So much small!

[@TehNoobiness]

I can't believe it, finally, a worthy successor to Squape Squapple

[@Indianawilliam]

YEA! GREAT SERPENT OF RONKA WAS MENTIONED! THIS IS THE BEST VIDEO!!!!!!!!

[@zantar04]

The one up side about p12s is that not every party is a snake party!

[@QuietTokes]

This is still the content we enjoy among your other pieces. Smol smol smol smol, smol, smol, smoooooooooooool. :3

[@shivaruka9126]

Praise The Spider Cider and the deep Lalafell voice.

[@ectior]

I love her shin-eating grin

[@DiafolEternal]

Continue dam it! need smol angy smallwalker!

[@garoutail]

This was a spicy episode, well-seasoned with tasteful humor.

[@dracotheshadowphoenix]

Truly no short-comings

[@taylor_lynn_]

Thank you for the password journal reference. I feel very seen as a girl who grew up in the 2000's and did, indeed, have a password journal.

[@HeyNaniNani]

"Prithee stay these hands, Prithee stay these hands" 🤣🤣🤣

[@ExiaBlade]

"There'll be a lot more orphans if we don't use protection." ...wait...

[@keysmashwarrior5057]

Oh so THIS is the source of the "mad because small" line I see every lala say to each other when they're in a party together!

[@Majima_Nowhere]

Oh boy, time for my monthly rewatch of the smallogy

[@abs_nobody]

can't wait to see mad bady encounter her kind

[@SonicXCII]

The spices line caused a triple aneurysm, but bless that you are back

[@bulshock1221]

Well worth the wait. Time to binge all the episodes again on loop for a few days.

[@NattoMeister]

Yay! I’ve been waiting for this one for awhile!

[@mattwo7]

10:43 Guilty feet have got no rhythm Though it's easy to pretend (Still baffles me that the love at first sight sax music meme came from a song about lamenting a breakup).

[@Wastingsometimehere]

Glad to see more Shinbringers content.

[@piersoncalley2236]

I was expecting a Viera hat joke, but I was not expecting one that subtle. Well played!

[@erdnuzz8368]

Our FCs name is "Ronka's heirs" - so im filled with tall pride trough this Video XDDDD Also: Youre an amazing Estinien VA XD

[@moosecat00]

Cider is eventually going to make it to the space garlemald arc, I eagerly await the anger again.

[@UlithiumDragon]

That yifftola comment made me laugh a lot more than I care to admit.

[@blackjet2000]

I needed my dose of small and angry, thank you

[@nicolasmartinez1317]

Mad because small, Jealous of the tall. Glad because Video, I'll watch it all. 😂

[@TianaSidhe]

6:02 oh hi there, Norvrandt!Jullus!

[@MidnightWonko]

lol COUGARS! Canonically, Y'shtola lies about her age and uses magic to appear more youthful.

[@chardonnayyoake2064]

i need more small

[@RosutoKitsune]

Thank you for the new episode in Mad Because Small! ❤ Favourite parts were the diarrhea jokes, spice puns and "This is Ronka!!!" 🤣

[@eFeXuy]

The wait between parts is not smol because this poetry those write itself.

[@luiz8755]

JESUS HAHAHAHA 5:00 peak performance

[@ProfessM]

The only downside to Cider Spider is his talk of the worst burger chain will cause me to once again start seeing ads for them.

[@MillieBoBilly]

This was a beautiful poem

[@notsid3]

Mad because small, cutest lala of all!

[@warllockmasterasd9142]

It is true, the ancients were very tall.

[@JenDeyan]

Worth the wait.

[@AC3handle]
