Peko Gear Solid 2: The DNA of the Soul 【Hololive/ENG SUB】[EP 13 FINAL]

[@aldyhabibie9717]

That "Perfect imitation of Snake" clip was gold.

[@hornet65]

I love how there are two fights left in the game, but this is still 47 minutes long. Gotta love Metal Gear.

[@ExaltedUriel]

I can think of few series other than Metal Gear where if you know the "trick" to bosses they're pretty average difficulty, but if you don't they're fucking balls hard. Edit: I realized that your comment was probably in reference to the number and length of cutscenes, but that too. lmao

[@MisterTwit]

I'm watching a virtual rabbit idol comedian play an action game from the mid-2000's whose villain predicted the rise of social media and the subsequent effect on democracy. Is this art peko? Thanks for the excellent translation, as always.

[@Shendue]

Thanks for your hard work with the subs and editing. As a non-japanese speaker, I really appreciate that you took the time to do this. Bravo! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@DeadmanApollo]

Snake might not have considered himself a hero, but you sure are Peko Mains. Thank you for sticking to such a massive TL project! Can't wait for MGS4

[@BrolyChan]

It's finally here, the final episode. Major kudos to you for subbing all of this, it's been a fun ride.

[@FukuroChannel]

L M F A O at how she was not only perfectly trained to be a big boss/solid snake successor but has played that role perfectly thus far, but when given the truth, goes "uso deshou?"

[@nickster_xd8937]

Thank you for saving Pekora’s reaction to one of the most profound moments in gaming history! 👍

[@Rautakello]

I love how Raiden goes: "I'll decide who I am for myself! I'm not a weapon!" only to later in Revengeance realize "Wait, I actually love this shit. Jack is back! Let 'er rip!" I'm not sure if it's an amazing character arc or a weird back and forth, but it sure ends up with an interesting character. It is a little weird that he was okay going by the name "Raiden" and "Jack" after hearing the meaning behind those names, but I guess it would've been close to impossible to get anyone to call him something else after an entire game of it being his name. Thank you for the continued effort Peko Mains. These videos continue to be the top tier Hololive fan content. Looking forward to the future.

[@komi-samabeliever7319]

I guess its due to his gullible nature he keeps swayin back and forth between his true belief. He believes in what Snake's said to him in MGS2 ending, but took his words to a T he didn't really had any freedom of his own. He only take Snake's own beliefs in a lateral sense rather than following his advice to find his own idea. And I think he suffers due to this. Since he clearly wasn't born and raised the way Snake did under Big Boss & Miller wings where their idea of a true soldier are freedom to choose your own fight and let no one, especially the government, used them as a mear tools to disposed of when they became useless. Raiden on the other hand, always meant to be a weapon, *not even a soldier.* His childhood were nothing but being controlled by Solidus, and his adulthood by Patriot. He never know true freedom. Even after Snake's speech, I doubt him truly understand what it means to "choose your own path". In MGS4 he started to doubt whether or not it was the right thing to follow Snake own ideal, hence relapse to his childhood trauma and coming back to fight. And helping his old mentor and friends along the way of course. In MGR he kept being told that he's The Ripper by Desperado Members (Sam & Monsoon most notably), he adamantly refuse to acknowledge it despite being apparent it was the only thing he knows for real and he never really tried to get back to normal society. Resonates "Rose" quote ironically. He truly realized through Armstrong's speech, he keep being told of what to do and never actually tried to find his own fight. And in the ending, he finally found one of his own. Ironically mirroring the whole MGS2 Snake speech all over again.

[@Rautakello]

@@komi-samabeliever7319 Seeing it spelled out like that, Raiden's shifting attitudes over the games make so much sense. The entirety of the series for him was a search to try and find out what he even wanted to do with his life after spending most of it as a disposable tool. Just another aspect that makes me love this series so much. Thanks for typing out such a comprehensive breakdown. It was very helpful since I don't have perfect memory.

[@komi-samabeliever7319]

@@Rautakello don't worry about it man, MGS are my absolute favorite series ever. Its quite poetic really. Raised as a weapon, once freed always be a weapon. At first he was nothing more than a tool for somebody else, but once he has liberty of his own he ironically decided to become a weapon at his own free will and quite enjoyed it it seems. He always be an embodiment of some veteran that just couldn't help but going back to fight since that's all they knew. Pretty much everyone in the saga really. The Snakes, The Boss, Ocelot and of course Raiden. All of them had the same fate just with different endings.

[@TheSimmr001]

its a bit like the ending to Antz "And, you know, I finally feel like I found my place, and you know what? It's right back where I started. But the difference is, this time I chose it."

[@NumbingDisasterAnon]

It's a bit realistic in a way. When people try to change something about themselves, relapse is a matter of "when" and not "if", people will stumble backwards and it's up to them to claw their way back forward. The exasperation of being the front lines of wars, continuing to being manipulated, reliving past traumas, gaining new traumas, and having old friends die violently around you just further compounds the ebb and flow of relapse and recovery

[@UnNuclear]

I pray to Yagoo that Pekora plays Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance someday

[@GoldBlaze]

I can only imagine what it was like, slowly building that folder of clips where Peko and Snake share a brain cell and say the same thing. Great work.

[@canalsincontenido]

If you know MGS2 you knew that's where that was going. Peko Mains did a great job, but I was expecting that joke before we even started this one.

[@BrianM_3rd]

The entire last part of this game is kookoo bananas, and Pekora's visible confusion at Robo-Colonel's big reveal is everything I wanted and more. This series has been a treasure to follow all this time and I can't wait for Part 4! Yoroshiku!

[@BeatPeet]

Thank you for undertaking this Herculean task of sighting, editing and translating all this material. My Japanese is rudimentary at best, so I can only understand the basic concepts and subject matters of most JP girls' streams. But thanks to you, I am able to watch Pekora's playthrough of my favourite game series in an authentic way and now I understand why she is one of the top Holo JP girls. Great work, as always!

[@CHURCHTUCKERCABOOSE]

Love the narrative of pekora synchronizing with snake throughout the playthroughs, great work as always. Hard to believe it's been 2.5yrs already, you're a legend

[@SenWarchief]

That Kanata edit at 4:49 really got me!! Brilliant work as always. Thanks so much for all the effort you went through to get us through MGS2!

[@MrMatigno]

Thanks always for your hard work, you're the best clipper (if that can still be called a clip at this length) Really happy to know that MGS4 is next Also La-Li-Lu-Pe-Ko and 20k IQ under the Median are your best episode titles

[@Volky_Volk]

Find something to believe in and find it for yourself; And when you do pass it on to the future. me just casually finding the meaning of life in a Peko video.

[@lorenzore1238]

1:33 watching this over and over. i wonder if someone ask Pekora about American History, would she talk about metal gear lore?

[@Falconwing66]

Our beloved monsters, enjoy yourselves.

[@Pinstripe105]

Me when miko and suisei fight

[@daruru42069]

That was a pretty long ride but very worthwhile. Watched all of your subs of MGS 1 through 3 and they're all bangers, the edit adds a lot to the fun. Pretty amazing how much you add, the references, even songs Pekora randomly humm/sing, you have a trivia for it. Thanks man, you did us a huge favor for your efforts. Looking forward to MGS4 if ever you're doing it.

[@pekomains]

Glad you enjoyed it, I'll probably be starting 4 sometime next month 👍

[@NinjaPopeXue]

I pray one day we'll get the VODs of her MGS streams back, but I'm not holding my breath. I think the games really did a lot for her popularity back then.

[@komi-samabeliever7319]

I started to finally realizing why this took such time per episode. It must be quite hard to translate everything what she said *AND* everything the game said, plus all of the edit and cutting, foul proof, etc. And to top it off, it's the notoriously long monologue MGS saga even. Truly, your dedication for this is a marvel on its own. Good job and we'll forever be thankful for your work.

[@StonemonkeyTube]

I thought those dog tags was your edit, but I realized that it was probably what you enter at the beginning of the game. Thanks for translating all of these, looking forward to MGS4.

[@Masamune_Shadow]

Just wanted to say big props to you for doing all of this. It's why I subbed. And I'll stay subbed due to the high quality. Thanks again.

[@osqq4336]

Kept us waiting, huh? Looking forward to mgs4. Keep up the good work!

[@dogstrings]

It's everything I wanted it to be: 40 minutes of a rabbit (mostly) quietly flip-flopping between excitement and confusion. Pekora playing Metal Gear is truly a meme our future generations deserve to inherit. We're grateful that you have worked so hard to pass it along.

[@dominicdcocco3361]

Si !!!!! Bendiciones para el Big Peko subs, por traducir el viaje de Pekosnake a lo largo de la locura genial de Kojima. God bless you !!

[@residentsteve1511]

You sir, are a true gentleman. Thank you for bringing us Peko gear Solid 2! I am forever grateful.

[@StegDarkhorse]

You're a legend for all the work you've put into this series. Thanks for all you've done. Good luck with Peko Gear Solid 4.

[@AnActualDinosaur]

Thaaaaaaaaaaaaank you! Always excited for each episode! Can't wait for the sequel (MGS4), whenever it comes!

[@kohakunushi3028]

Thank you for continuing the work of god

[@TaconicST]

been watching since the start and this is easily one of the best things on youtube. still holding out some faint hope that she plays mgr and mgs5 someday.

[@rawkarp]

I'd like to imagine some random person picking up Raiden's Pekora dog tags and exchanging them for cigarettes or something.

[@canalsincontenido]

Beautiful work as always, I can't believe you went through it all. As far as I'm concerned you earned yourself a vacation, but also if we don't get PGS 4 in the next month we riot.

[@AnimeAjay]

I got so emotional at the end. Thanks so much. Looking forward MGS4. Your work seriously makes my day.

[@edgarlozada3858]

And so the end of Peko Gear Solid 2's being reached. Man, thanks for all of these amazing videos! You are pretty much the main reason I felt into this rabbit hole, and I love it. Once again, thanks Peko Mains.

[@CUSTOMZONE]

"What do those Dog Tags say? Peko Subs? Anyone you know?" "Peko Subs? Peko Subs janai."

[@Phyrrax]

Amazing journey came to an end. Thanks for the enormous amount of effort and fun edits to spice up this lost and fun LP. Cant wait for the next video you put out.

[@SharpingtonTheGreat]

I dont really pay attention to hololive stuff anymore and I'm only subscribed to/watch pekora and subaru, but you're still the only clip channel I still watch. Even though I don't really need subtitles anymore to fully understand, you're translation and editing make these videos even funner than it would to just watch the raw stream. You're truly one of the best out there and I can't wait for mgs4 if you decide to do it!

I got to say The only way im able to enjoy Pekora chan at all anymore is thanks to you and all your hard work and dedication and going above and beyond for the community you build up is insane. I competely forgot how hard hitting the ending was and being able to see and understand Pekora's reaction is amazing. Keep up all the hard work and dont forget to take much needed breaks and thank you for the entertainment

[@metalsonic8888]

You know what I hate about normal streams is how much trivial information accumulates in them, preserved in all it's triteness. So thank you Peko Mains for filtering out unnecessary information from this stream. I really appreciate how you create context

[@Baddest_of_Men]

I have to say, while I do actually think that the English dubs for Metal Gear are good, my personal bias for the Japanese dubs of things is still pretty strong. Hearing Akio Ootsuka do Solidus almost makes me think that it fits him more than Big Boss or Solid Snake, actually. Might just be because of his performance as Anavel Gato, though. Looking forward to seeing MGS4, much like everyone else here.

[@jovesun8303]

I know this would probably be a waaaayyy far off sort of thing, but do you think you might do Pekora's playthrough of Final Fantasy X? I've been watching some of the scarce translated clips of it and it's apparently super emotional for her and she gets super invested in it like she does the MGS series. But, please, continue with translating MGS4 for now!

[@jovesun8303]

Lots of Peko sniffs and straight up Peko crying moments.

[@pekomains]

After MGS4, I'm planning to switch to longer, single-video supercuts like I did for Korone's Metroid Dread. For FFX, this one already exists, so I think there'd be a little too much content overlap to justify doing it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fJC0g4SHZppqfdk
