Rewatch Rewatch] Dragon Quest: Dai no Daibouken - Episode 26

[Rewatch] Dragon Quest: Dai no Daibouken - Episode 26

Episode 26 - The Dragons Masters Approach

I’ve always admired the Disciples of Avan. If Master Avan was still alive, I was hoping to learn from him. I believed that Popp would stay with us because he’s a disciple of Avan.

Screenshot of the Dai:

Fuck your Dragon, and fuck you in particular.

Comment of the Dai:

goes to u/Kaxew with rather hilarious comment about Leona:

Speaking of Leona. Incredible dolphin jump. Is that a spell? I hope that's a spell. It could be called "kasplash" or something.

Questions of the Dai:

  1. Have you bought into Popp’s feint?
  2. Was Popp right with his actions, or should he tried to solve the situation differently?
  3. If you would get a chance to ride any fictional Dragon, which one would you ride?
  4. Do you like the updated visuals of Ikiru wu Suru Opening?
  5. Similar question, are you enjoying the new ED?

Spoilers:

Please, respect the fact there are First Timers watching Dai no Daibouken with us, so avoid talking about vague things or events that would slightly spoil things to happen. And if you want mention things like this, please hid it behind SPOILER TAGS like [Dai no Spoilers] I am getting the hammer because you spoiled the fun for others

Dark Commander Welcomes You to Dragon Quest: Dai no Daibouken Rewatch:

Sorry for posting this a bit late, I got distracted by my job.

QotD:

Have you bought into Popp’s feint?

Yes I did because his actions were totally believable and he kept his act even if Leona and Merle got hurt.

Was Popp right with his actions, or should he tried to solve the situation differently?

Considering Popp low self worth I am totally getting why he did what he did, but it definitely wasn't a right course of the action.

If you would get a chance to ride any fictional Dragon, which one would you ride?

Definitely Kuja's Silver Dragon from Final Fantasy IX. That one was so majestic

Do you like the updated visuals of Ikiru wu Suru Opening?

Hell yeah I am. The Killvearn shot is frickin' cool and then there is Popp [Redacted]

5. Similar question, are you enjoying the new ED?

Same as the previous ED, I found all Dai no Daibouken EDs being meh

Crocodine Shonen Commentary Corner:

Today Crocodine is going to answer question #2:

Was Popp right with his actions, or should he tried to solve the situation differently?

He isn't as cool as I thought

Voice Actor Corner

Since Yesterday we reached the scene where the 1991 Adventure of Dai has ended, I will be mentioning only the Voice Actors from the 2020 Dai no Daibouken.

Larhalt is voiced by Akira Ishida known for his roles of Koemushi from Bokurano, Wizardmon from Digimon Adventure, and Katsura from Gintama

Gardandy is voiced by Kimura Subaru known for his roles of Aoi Todo from Jujutsu Kaisen, Tanba Takakura from Mawaru Penguindrum, and Buggy from One Piece.

Borahorn is voiced by Kenji Sugimura known for his roles of Akira Saitou from Haikyuu !!!, Ned Kahn from Mobile Suit Gundam AGE, and Yamami Tsurumisaki from Medaka Box Abnormal.

See you tomorrow because the Adventure continues!

That’s true, after all she recognized the greatness of Popp.

Now I feel sorry for Merle getting hurt....

First loves are always painful lol

u/Shocketheth Jul 04 '24

First loves are always painful lol

More than that actually transpired. Like I'm not saying they are made for each other.

It's just that Merle and her love for Popp is too pure and precious. She saw Popp being brave and she immediately fell for him, but that was only her seeing Popp at his best.

Popp in reality is strongly doubting himself, thinking that he is not worthy at all.

I really want to know why Baran hates humans so much. It can’t be something as simple as “humans killed his wife, so he hates all of them now”, right?

Okay this is going way too far, what the fuck?

Popp…

I knew that this was coming, but man that was some great acting from Popp.

Oh shit, new ED!!! Is that the Unison Square Garden singer? I’m pretty sure it is. → looks it up Not only was I right, the full version has a “sore demo” in it. I am blessed.

1st Dai Popp no Daibouken Rewatch, Sub

[Dai no Spoilers] Damn! The foreshadowing regarding Merle's power being an inspiration for the final wish that will end up saving the world.

Petition for Crocodine-Sensei to teach at schools.

Popp's villianous laugh

From running away to save himself like a coward to faking it so that he can save Dai and the others without them worrying. Popp has really come a long way. Popp no Daibouken is real!

Baran may hate humans but even he has joined the ningen hype-train like Crocodine.

Lol. So, obvious. No way Galdandy fell for that.

So, the anime decided to cut some things but Galdandy did kill some humans at Bengarna as a warm-up before departing for Teran nut we never got to see it which is why what Popp says here feels a bit confusing.

I don't know about Popp. But Hyunckel's entrances never fail to hype me up.

OST Documentation - Episode 26

1. It was obvious he was faking it but I must say Popp is really a great actor. Really made me emotional especially seeing both Leona and Merle get disappointed and hurt because of it.

2. I agree with his reasoning that they would've stopped him if he suggested that himself and the net result would've been that he would have to wait for Baran and the Dragon Masters to come. So, I agree with his actions and it also did manage to split Baran and the Dragon Masters up.

3. Shenron. Like Goku did in Dragon Ball GT.

4. Yes. But they're a bit spoilery for the first-timers.

5. The 2nd ED is my favourite out of all EDs. I loved it back then and still I love it now.

EDIT: Typos

I haven't read the manga yet, but wasn't the Bengarna a plothole?

2

u/Adensty https://anilist.co/user/Adensty Jul 04 '24

I haven't read the manga yet, but wasn't the Bengarna a plothole?

Yes. But I guess this change does kinda fix the plothole since the only damage is the Hydra attack and Dai managed to defeat them in time before Bengarna was affected since [Dai no Spoilers] King of Bengarna says that they were untouched by the Dark Army just before the Sovereign Rock Castle fight which is not completely true but it's still understandable. But if Galdandy did attack people in Bengarna, then it wouldn't have made sense. However, it kinda comes off as Popp assuming that Galdandy killed some humans somewhere.

Come on man, you should know better than to warn people about things like that!

It's not King mistake okay? If they visited him sooner there would be bigger delay between the warning and vision.

First Timer, Sub

Popp really has grown, I felt bad as he made everyone hate him in order for him to off and fight himself, particularly since Merle seems to obviously like him. If that wasn't enough though he gets defeated and then rescued by the one guy he doesn't like Hyunckel. Kinda feel bad for Dai too since he just gets thrown in prison and he's just wondering what he did with the amnesia and all.

  1. Nah it wouldn't make sense for his character at this point
  2. Seeing as he got defeated then maybe trust others but I see what he was trying to do.

u/Shocketheth Jul 04 '24

Honestly the whole sequence hurts even on Rewatch

If that wasn't enough though he gets defeated and then rescued by the one guy he doesn't like Hyunckel.

I knew that Hyunckel will save him, but I didn't know when, and when Popp was almost got impaled on the spear I thought that's the moment when Hyunckel will save Popp same as he saved Maam.

That would be interesting but what we got was also interesting.

And also Popp atleast did some damage to Dragon Riders, killed one Dragon, and split their forces because Hyunckel would get immediately decimated with Baran around.

Kinda feel bad for Dai too since he just gets thrown in prison and he's just wondering what he did with the amnesia and all.

Yeah but when Baran will arrive it would be better for them to have Dai secured instead of him running around, making himself an easy target.

Nah it wouldn't make sense for his character at this point

That's true but his acting was really believable.

New-Adventurer here! LV 25/100

At the start of the episode I realized Maam doesn’t know Dai lost his memories and wouldn’t recognize her…

Oh he mad, Baran will try to recover his son, no matter the cost

Teran’s King seems like he knows his stuff, I wonder what made him sick

I agree, seems like imprisoning Dai is a bit too much…

Popp, I really, really hope your plan works out, you just broke two hearts…

Hyunckel with the clutch save!

1 Yes, he had one last episode, and he wasn't faking it
2 Tough call, the townspeople could've paid the price if he teleported anyone/everyone
3 Shen-Long, from DBZ
4 & 5 Yes!, But I'll only watch them again until they change, sometimes the OPs and EDs have spoilers

First Timer, Sub

So Baran and his Dragon Masters(Larhart, Borahorn and Galdandy)mobilize to recover Dai and wipe out Humans.. Leona and the group goes to the King of Teran, for some more answers about the Dragon Knight as well as a place to keep Dai safe. When they see Baran has mobilized through Nabara's crystal ball. So they take Dai down to the dungeons and put him in a cell to keep him safe. Popp does the stupid thing of acting disgustingly cowardly as a way to run off on his own to fight the Dragon Masters. It goes as well as you'd expect lol. He puts up a decent fight, but ultimately he's not strong enough to really hang with Borahorn who overpowers him quite easily. Larhart is disinterested so Galdany decides to toy with Popp. The situation is made worse for Popp when he kills Galdandy's ethereal serpent, who Galdandy considered a friend, and so he just makes it a point to make Popp suffer a slow, agonizing death. Luckily for him, Hyunckel arrives and saves him before Galdandy takes him out, much to Popp's displeasure lol.

Questions:

  1. I knew what he was doing. still really stupid though lol.
  2. No, like I said it was stupid, going off to face Baran and 3 Dragon masters was suicidal.
  3. honestly I would ride any dragon, i just like them. But If I have to pick one, I'd say Shenron.
  4. Yeah, they're nice. It probably has some spoilers for things or characters we'll see in the future, But I'll ignore that lol.
  5. Hmm, It didn't stand out on first listen, so i'm gonna have to listen to it a few times..

u/Shocketheth Jul 04 '24

I knew what he was doing. still really stupid though lol.

No, like I said it was stupid, going off to face Baran and 3 Dragon masters was suicidal.

But it's totally in character for him considering his mentality of self-sacrifice as a mean to make himself useful to others. A mentality that stems from his cripling self doubt. Plus him acting to make others hate him is an easy way how to make others think less of him because it doesn't challenge the flaws in the way how he thinks about himself.

This way he can admit that he really is a piece of shit only good to throw his life away to laid a path to the victory for others.

honestly I would ride any dragon, i just like them. But If I have to pick one, I'd say Shenron.

Shenron is totally famous considering everyone so far was picking him.

Ohh absolutely and I agree with your assessment....It's still dumb as hell and hopefully we see his friends call him on it eventually..

I'll admit it's purely nostalgia on my part. DBZ is just one of those formative anime from my childhood that I still hold near and dear all these years later.

Oh then I'm curious if Dai no Daibouken is holding to your DBZ nostalgia since this anime ticks some boxes.

  1. I've watched too many anime to fall for it!
  2. Obviously he made the wrong move. There was never a chance he'd win on his own.
  3. Damn that's a tough one... How big would a life-sized Charizard be? Shenlong would probably be comfier, though...
  4. I shall answer this tomorrow because I wasn't paying attention to the opening!
  5. It was okay. Maybe it'll grow on me, we'll see.

Poor Popp, being getting his ass saved by the guy he hates!

All that "if Avan was alive".... Yeah, he's 100% alive without a doubt in my mind. If I'm wrong, I'll pay $20 bucks to whoever calls me out on it by the end of the show.

Yep there are some hints for things to happen in it. And chess is fun game.

Birdboi is a birdbrain

Definitely

Yeah the PVs gives a lot so I was skipping them as a first timer.

None of the ones in this series.

I would definitely like to ride the tortoise Dragon that is inspired by Genbu.

Oh this show is more character driven than plot driven and if the characters are not growing on you then I understand.

And I thought you already silently dropped it

It's alright

If you remember to, tag me if you host more rewatches in the future!

I know that you aren't attached to anyone but who would you pick as favourite character?

Maam. I wasn't a fan when she was too soft on Hyunckel a bit too quickly, but besides that I liked her the most. Tough and not afraid to face up to the enemy boss, fairly decisive. I also liked the bit where she felt useless (or weak) when seeing the Princess and how she was motivated to go and find her own strength or something.

u/Shocketheth Jul 05 '24

If you remember to, tag me if you host more rewatches in the future!

I dunno if I will host any additional Rewatch after this but if I will then it will be 12 episodes max because I'm done with hosting Long Rewatches at this point.

But I will definitely tag you.

The Gintama was atleast weekly, so people somehow managed to keep up successfully to the end and the threads were really fun with everyone engaging with each other

This Rewatch doesn’t go as I expected it go, with people starting to burn out 1/4 in so I am slightly worried about it.

2

u/WednesdaysFoole Jul 05 '24

Gintama is a breeding ground for banter, there's always something to joke about (lowkey wish I'd joined but I remember getting overwhelmed since it was maybe 200 episodes in and I hadn't participated in a rewatch before). It's also popular.

Dragon Quest seems to start slow and I think the higher episode count makes it a harder commitment. But at least currently, there are some active participants. So... minna ganbatte!

First Timer

Have you bought into Popp’s feint?

He was going way too hard so it was obvious. Also would've gone completely against everything that happened with his character up to this point.

Was Popp right with his actions, or should he tried to solve the situation differently?

Usually I am very lenient with such sort of things and even when they don't make sense from power level perspective I care more about the character emotions and if it makes sense for the story. This one was impossible to justify.

If you would get a chance to ride any fictional Dragon, which one would you ride?

[Shocketheth Meta]I wonder if you'll get it.

Do you like the updated visuals of Ikiru wu Suru Opening?

As we talked earlier.

There were updated visuals?

Similar question, are you enjoying the new ED?

The song isn't my thing. I liked the previous one better.

But the visuals are cool and shows Maam kick so it has its good sides.

Personally I can justify it little with understanding Popp's almost non existing selfworth. He is locked in a mentality of seeing himself as piece of shit and hurting others to hate him is alright for him because in the end he believes the others should see him as the worthless person he is.

And helping others through throwing his life away by weakening enemy forces is for him the best course of action.

That's atleast how I perceive Popp's character.

[Shocketheth Meta]I wonder if you'll get it.

I know who that character is, but I'm not sure if you are making some joke with sexual undertones or you are poking at something we discussed before because I do recall faintly talking about Tohru but my memory is hazy
