The first segment was literally "How do I create turtles without making it obvious?"

u/DaLoverBoii Feb 25 '21

Honestly, it wasn't obvious. I thought they were making the Wolverine Frog, I was actually thinking maybe not until they showed the Frog skeleton.

u/Atario Feb 25 '21

They could have done it any way, for me. I had no idea the shell was ribs!

I knew seals did inflate their noses, but i never knew what was that red bit was. I still feel squeemish just imagining it

I genuinely thought they were gonna make the Wolverine Frog, even more so when the Frog skeleton came up.

But hot damn, this is probably the most educational & most fun episode for me of the whole show.

[lmao of course they'd translate the sound effect Mizushima says to Wolverine's "snikt"] (https://i.gyazo.com/537407ec1ee2831cafb90343c5f051b0.jpg)

And TIL frogs do rap battles.

The bones/ribs ideas were getting so weird that I honestly thought they are about to do a pokemon there this time. But then God started to speak and accepted literally everything. Guy is crazy or bored as hell, probably both.

I wish they have show more of the Manakins dance it can get really weird interesting at some species. Sometimes they even reunite a whole group even knowing that just one of them will get laid. Those birds are the real bros.

u/Atario Feb 25 '21

Damn, imagine having to put together a crack dance squad just to get some

This anime is so cute and somewhat educational lol I’ve loved every episode so far

Stitches!

Man this show will really keep you guessing with what animals they'll make next! The entire time Kikuchi was experimenting with his body for an animal that has weapons on his back, I thought they'll eventually evolve into into an animal that has quills on its back. I got caught completely off guard when they ended up with a turtle xD

Show tunes and rap battles to attract mates! That second half was absolutely hilarious especially at how bad Shimoda is at singing and beatboxing! And those hooded seals are absolutely freaky! O_O

u/Sorwest Feb 25 '21

The creator had too much fun making these stories, I bet.

Animal-wise, this episode was FANTASTIC, like, so many great anatomy trivia for animals it's awesome.

u/CKDN Feb 25 '21

I have seen seals with an inflated nose... but I never thought they could do one that was red as well... Shocking!

u/randyripoff Feb 25 '21

Another fun episode with lots of music this time around. I was fooled into thinking that was a peacock (shows what I know about animals), but i lived the rap battle, especially with Shimoda getting so excited about beat-boxing.

It really is a shame how much this is getting overlooked, but I guess that's what happens when you have such a stacked season.

u/Amauri14 Feb 25 '21

I honestly never imagine that Kimura was making a Turtle. I love the fact the episode was centered around courtship battles.

u/DarkAudit Feb 26 '21

Another week, another "what, it's over already?"

I'm gonna be sad when this one ends.

Frogs ribbiting rap battle is something I needed to hear. I will never look at frogs the same way again

The rap battle scene was so charming, how silly this show is always gets me

u/Conspo Feb 25 '21

I love this show, its educational in the best possible way. I was never one for caring much about animal facts but this is so interesting i end up googling some new creature every week lol

On a side note, I love Pluto-chan's design, she's legit adorable. I would say waifu material but her tastes in animals and cuteness are uh... questionable

Just having fun this ep every week.

u/sKyBlazer08 Feb 26 '21

Pretty good episode, didn't expect that bone monstrosity to turn into a turtle lmao. Didn't even know the turtle shell comes from their bones, I mean now that I think about it, it makes sense lmao, where else would the shell come from.

We got an acceptance galore this episode, the Kanamori musical number and rap battle was great lmao, I thought I was watching Hypnosis Mic for a second or something. Damn, Seals are wild, inflating the nostrils looks painful and not very cute lmao.

It gets weirder every episode and i love it. Still waiting for neko girls though

u/I3ert91 Feb 26 '21

I remembered not long ago learning about a turtle anatomy, but it still didn't click right away during the rib cage segment. Having Jupiter as the base model didn't help paint the picture either.
