A bit of spoiler but kinda reminds me of big bang theory sheldon has a black memory of his father but in reality in young sheldon we found out that wasn't the case.

Well he is 26 senshi was 36, so despite Senshi saying he looks 60 Laios is young by dwarf standards.

[@hyobro8392]

@@beatrixthegreat1138 I think it was meant to show that it's proportional. Laios is 26, which is 10 years over the age of tallman maturity. Dwarf maturity is around 40 years, and Laios looks 60 to Senshi which is coherent with Laios being a little older than that maturity age. If it wasn't proportional, Marcille would have been elderly as a halfling since she's 50, the average lifespan for a halflings.

[@Igarappappa]

@@hyobro8392 Yeah, otherwise some wouldn't even SURVIVE the transformation.

[@rynbliss]

i think probably half-foots cant grow facial hair so chilchuck as a tall-man suddenly had stubble, but as someone who shaves regularly, laios would remain beardless even as a dwarf

[@icantdraw3781]

I wish the scene where Laios shook the bell for dog-izutsumi had included the moment where it rang in tandem for Shuro on the surface. That was so funny in the manga.

[@FanOfMostEverything]

I'm hoping there will at least be a callback to it when Laios and Shuro cross paths again.

[@nevinmyers1245]

i feel like this moment works better in the manga medium because it can be in a small frame off to the side. in the anime it would either have to be a cut or imposed on the scene at the same time, which would feel jarring.

Laios shaves regularly in the dungeon, we've seen him do this like twice I swear. He hated his father and falin comparing them one time motivated him to cut his hair and stay cleanly shaven.

[@tuiteyfruity5010]

Good catch! That makes sense then, that when turned into a dwarf, he doesn’t magically grow facial hair since he actively shaves. And likely is continuing to do so. Chilchuck got stubble because he doesn’t shave so he’s starting to grow that beard ;)

[@bbittercoffee]

Bro was so horrified by the single comment he decided to stay tidy FOREVER

[@cookiethehungry]

I thought it was because as a dwarf, his beard is still coming in due to age. (Senshi doesn't even have a beard at 37.)

[@goodhelmetjunior3399]

Senshi didn’t have a beard at 37, but uh, small spoilers for next episode… Laios has the body of a 60~ Year old Dwarf. The Changeling Mushrooms have proportionate aging or else Marcille would be an old lady as a Half-Foot.

[@rudebega1494]

⁠@@cookiethehungrynah, it definitely made them their relative ages in their new bodies-Marcille is 50, and if she’d been a 50 year old half-foot, she’d look more elderly than she did given that the average half-foot lifespan is 60. Chilchuck at 29 is middle-aged, and he looked like a middle-aged tall man, not like a 29 year old.

[@tomaspacini3450]

one detail i really liked is that when senshi turns around after crying you can see that he has reddened/flushed eyebags

[@higanbana2620]

Senshi's red eyes from crying is very easy to notice compared to Marcille, you must pay close attention to see her reddened eyes before and after she successfully resurrected Falin, and her eyes was still red when they took a bath together

And even more so I think SungWon Cho showing such an extreme range of senshi in this episode was also very cool

Apparently Laios is cleanshaven by choice. As long as dwarven hair doesn't grow faster than tallman hair, Laios should be able to keep up his regular shaving regimen. Though it would be interesting to see him wake up with the start of growth and having to keep on top of it. I didn't even notice the hairs in the dumplings! This show is so good.

[@luisjauregui2197]

One of my favorite aspects of the changeling designs is how the author spend a lot of time to ensure every design to make sense with all of the elements of the original characters: - Laios is a young adult, so he has a softer face than Senshi when he becomes a dwarf. - Chilchuck is a middle aged man, so he of course is made to look like an older tall man. - Marcille is smaller and younger looking than Chilchuck, since she's a young woman and Chilchuck seems to be taller than the average hal-foot. - Senshi has two noticeable attributes normally, his beard which is big even for a darwf and his good looks, so it makes sense for this attributes to stand out so much more when he is in elf form.

[@nickrothe7452]

something I appreciate about the griffin soup is the sad and somber" its ready" and the music is down key as well

[@cartooncrazy9883]

Maybe dwarf laios doesnt have a beard because laios canonically shaves so that carries over? Senshi is probably the hairiest dwarves get so hes the hairiest an elf gets too... i guess?

[@stevemehes9152]

thought it was cause of his age being younger since young senshi didnt really have the beard yet

Izutsumi's dog face looked like an uncomfortable version of the guard-stand dog from Undertale

[@Happyisboss]

Laios kneeling on his toes with his heels in the air is a great detail bc Europeans tend to have tight ankles from lifestyle differences between Eastern people's which makes it more difficult for them to keep their heels on the ground while squating

[@JTCF]

The episode was an emotional rollercoaster, specifically Senshi's past half. It might be the first time I've actually though that Laios was going a bit too far. But the final revelation of Senshi's past *soup* is so heartwarming. And remembering that he named the Kelpi Anne after the horse they had to eat when stranded in the dungeon's depths shows that deep inside Senshi is still a child, even if technically he's an adult. Back then the adults had to make sure Senshi survives and they fed him, and we saw how Senshi had the same feelings about Laios's group.

You mentioned Elf Senshi is the only elf we see with facial hair, but I think he might also be the only elf with dark hair we see, including among Kui's headshot pages of just one race. As far as I can find, the only times we see elves with dark hair are when she's drawing an elven raceswap of someone with dark hair. It makes me wonder if dark hair is like, some lost phenotype to elves that only shows up during changeling shenanigans.

You mention how hairless Laois is, but I'm pretty sure this was addressed in one of the manga extras as being intentional! I don't remember from which volume, but there was an extra where it showed Laios with longer hair and a beard, and Falin pointed out that it made him look like their father. It said that from then on, he decided he would shave and keep a shorter haircut. I think it's a neat aspect about his character, so I wanted to point it out. This video was fun as always. I love to see the particular spotlight you give to the animators and the comments you have about how these scenes serve the adaption (for better or worse, depending).

I remember in your breakdown of episode one you drew attention to how there's no movement on Senshi's face when he talks, not even his mustache. Now we know why. They wanted it to hit harder when we see his mouth speak just this one time. Let that sink in. They made a creative decision that would effect nearly every episode of the series, all for the sake of one moment that was just a few seconds.

[@syppy7416]

the fact you put so much effort to crediting the animators individually makes me smile ^^

[@ScrubbinOpti]

I think you've mentioned it before somewhere, but I really wish the order of chapters was switched around so we could get hippogriff soup and the changlings in separate episodes. I was watching this episode with a friend who was anime only, and he remarked that while Senshi's story was great and he loved it, the second half with the changlings felt rushed and I can't disagree, I even showed him a lot of the panels that were cut from the first half of changlings and he really wished he got to see that. I get that Trigger wants to end on chapter 52, but I still feel like they really could have swapped the order around, like what they did for dryads.

Now, assuming there's a hiatus between seasons, I would enjoy some content from you about those "I can't believe you didn't talk about X" topics if you're feeling up to it.

I dont remember if it was on the actual manga or a monsters tidbit extra or something but i distinctly remember a escene where Laios asks senshi what age he thinks he was in the dwarf body and Senshi goes like "mm, you looked around 60" and Laios says how that means their changed bodies adapted to the equivalent age of whather race they were turned into

[@AClark-tk5jd]

I honestly think there was one major misstep in the cutting for this episode: the removal of any mention that Senshi's party members had been stealing food from the orcs at first. As an anime-only viewer, I was very confused about exactly where they were finding those sacks of unspecified "food". Were they eating monsters, and if so, why wasn't it being discussed? Surely that would have been a formative experience for Senshi? And if they weren't eating monsters, where were they finding food? Were they cannibalizing each other one by one the whole time? I had to have a manga-reading friend explain it to me, and that seems like a bad call on the part of the script/storyboard folks. Even a few seconds would have been enough to establish the source of their food (and why the orcs were angry enough to capture Senshi when he emerged, but then changed their mind when they realized he was a harmless kid).

[@ambisweetiepie]

Finally reaching two parts that I've been excited for my friend to get to see!!! There are so many good parts, but senshi's backstory just makes so many previous behaviors click into place. For a second there I thought the anime had cut out the moment when they mentioned Anne's name, and was relieved that they hadn't. I'm gonna have to wait ages to see all the fun stuff with my boy Mithrun, but I'm glad we got to get as far as we are getting with season one!

[@gottastoppo]

I think the reason why Laios had no beard as a dwarf is because he shaves himself a lot, maybe once or twice a day. I mean, he was a hairy mess until Falin pointed out that he looked like his father. That probably gave laios high motivations to regularly cut his hair and shave so he could aviod the appearance similatities he didn't want to have.

while i understand that it was a nessesary scheduling decision, man, i really wish we had gotten a whole chapter dedicated to gryphon soup. while the most important part [Senshi's reaction to the soup] was done beatifuly, everything else felt SO rushed. i really think this chapter would have heavealy benefited from some time to let senshi's backstory and everyones reactions and dialogues to sink in. Furthermore, im really sad that about the way a certain panel got adapted: the party's reaction. Especially bc of Izutsumi. In the manga they show you everyone's face and you can see izutsumi is genuinely horrified and feels so bad for senshi, and thats important bc she is just warming up to the idea of traveling with the party and this is the first time she expresses concern about them. While in the anime they just show everyone from the back and you cant see their faces. Also i do think i might be a lot more critical than usual bc its my favorite chapter in the series so i had very high expectations.

For the last episode of the season I want them to redo the opening but with everyone in the party in their race-swapped forms. Damn I commented before watching the full video and wanted to cite the updated volume one cover panel, but you actually mentioned it. 🙃

Ah yes, the one with Senshi getting a good ending in his Pelican Soup riddle👌

7:31 - That is called a "Throbber" by the way.

Good call pointing out the lack of outro, perhaps on the physical release (hopefully) we get a combined two-episode finale. I can't believe season one is almost over, looking forward to the next video 🥺

Yay! I've been waiting for this one so much!
