blood pants like Jay that I wasgonna make a super bad reference, but
I failed period blood girls. Anyway, Yeah, yeah, it's a super
bad reference. Yeah, but Ifucked up because I had a mouthful bearing
you made me laugh. So anyway, it's Jay West here with the Master
drunk punch mageast Me mag East andit's the fucking finals. We did we

(01:07):

guys, you did it. Youain't do shipping. Fuck me over.
There's a time goddamn tournament. Ihate you all. You'll suck. By
the way, guys, Jay doesn'tknow if it's the My Hero the Day
theme song or one punch Man.I still can't believe that happened, Like
I do. Yo. When werecorded that, I was so blasted,

(01:29):
and I remember listening to it whenyou dropped it and being like, what
the fuck? Why would why didI vote for some of these things?
Like I was very confused and I'mscared. You know what it is?
Man? And I like people bitchat us a lot for like our choices.
But when you're in the moment athe booze is flowing, man,
be when you're feeling like something justhit, you're supposed to think what I
think. No, but it's noteven that because I voted against my own

(01:53):
ship something. Because sometimes you justhear it like fucking Naruto, by the
way, is in this finals.This is insane and I had never guessed
it. But it's just something.It hits you. The music hits it.
When the booze is fun, andit just I don't know something about
it and get you. Sometimes youdon't expect it. So I you sit
in these chairs and make these decisionsfor real. You come here and deal

(02:13):
with you dickheads that have to vote. You depend on you. Fox.
Yeah, this is why they playeda game, everybody. It's not just
what you see on the stat sheet. Yeah, man, these games need
to be played and there's a reasonfor it. A lot of hard work
and emotional effort that goes into us. But yeah, it's the finals.
We've been doing this for like almosta year now. It's kind of crazy.
We thought this was gonna be likea couple of months. Times like

(02:35):
three months when when we talked aboutit, we were like, oh,
let's do just for the summer.And then I was like, yeah,
let's do some qualifying hit because like, there's so many good songs. Started
She was like in January with RedFox. Then we hit like a million
crossovers for a fucking yo. Wecrossed over with everyone, and then we
just you know and now. Andthen as the summer went on, I

(02:57):
was like, oh, we ain'tgonna finish this. Um So I guess
I was some poor planning, butI don't mind it running this long,
and it's been fun, and peoplewho seemed to have been a joint of
the numbers are good. Okay,we hate doing shit like this, but
shout out to all we've we've grownexponentially, like in the last couple of
months. Shout out to all thenew listeners, thank you for hopping on

(03:22):
or even if you're just checking usout, thank you. We appreciate that.
A lot of international folks like,thank you for welcoming two weirdos from
New York showing a basement into yourfucking ears. And look for the end
theme song tournament, which we're gonnarecord right after this. Actually, but
at the end of this podcast,we record the end of all endings.

(03:43):
Yeah, for the end of theyear, so I feel like the end
of the year, So check thatout and that'll only be like two episode.
Promise it won't run. This wasfun. I don't care. This
was no no. And then nextyear I don't know when yet, we're
gonna do the Wears Anime theme songtournament. So we got some more tournaments
in the worst. Plus we'll probablydo other stuff beside theme song tournaments.

(04:06):
I'd also like to get an ostone in. Yeah, if we're doing
some OSTs, you boy, itcould be fun to do it with like
buy anime. So we'll just havelike put animesh And then at the end
of the old tournaments to the Tournamo. We still these people don't even know
about the Tournament of Tournaments yet.It's gonna be much work. I just
dropped it. But yeah, ourtournament technically can be held in the Tournament

(04:30):
of Tournaments. Yeah hell yeah winnah but yeah, so um yeah,
so this has been cool, man, Jay, Yes, what's a song
you expected to go for? Therumbling fucking went far dude. I am
winning scrub. It didn't lose lessScrub. So that song came out right

(04:50):
right before we were like about todrop this, and I was like,
this ship is winning. Like Seanfrom Metal Core Nerds hit us up and
was like, you know, hedropped the video like the day it dropped
and I lost fucking ship day.Oh like this you guys failed, You

(05:15):
failed me, you failed to tackon Titan. But yeah, we uh
you thought this would go all theway. I I really thought it was
like I don't even know. Ithought it was gonna be this and crazy
Crazy Rainbow start. I swear togod, I felt bad to see.
That's one of the ones I'm talkingabout is Crazy Rainbow. I really it's

(05:38):
basically my favorite, and I hadto kill it at some point. Yeah,
when you start breaking it down andyou start trying to put a logical
like especially like you said in themoment, Yeah, depending on like how
you're feeling, any of these songscould be my favorite. And it shifts
a little bit too, because youstart thinking, like that might be a
cool song, but is it thesong I'd set off my anime with,

(05:59):
like, and it's like the idealanime theme song kind of the idea we
started we started talking about that moreinstead of just do we like this song?
And it kind of made you thinkabout certain songs differently. Yes,
um so I don't know. It'stough, but I it ain't tough for
me, man, And now there'sbeen these these finals that fucking sucked so

(06:21):
for me, Um, I don'tknow I wanted what did I want?
Probably sail the Moon? Fuck?Well, no, you know what I
feel bad about? You? Youhaka show? Yeah? Yeah, yeah,
you know why. I'll tell youwhy because it justice. I started

(06:46):
watching it again after this tournament started, after I already killed it thanks to
you guys. You guys help meout with that. Uh. Also we
put it up against salea Moon allfor it. Also a lot of people
people like, we're bitching about whatthe fuck is it? Uh? Cowboy
Space, Cowboy Bebo trash? Fuckabout that song? That's trash? That's

(07:09):
trash, like yo on some realshit, Like if someone like I don't
give a fuck about that song,like I've never she ain't on a playlist
for me, and that's just me. Look, no, it's I'm saying
it's trash. It ain't trash,But like I it's just crazy how people
will try to tell me that mylike that it like it's gonna sway me,
Like, I don't fucking like thesong, Like, no, I

(07:32):
you know what, it's a coolsong, but it it's it feels a
little too try hard or something.I don't know, Like it's trying to
be about it. It was tryingto be cool and it's like whatever,
I was cool for the time,but it's bad. Half this shit,
I don't fuck uh. One ofmy big regrets putting Monster Rancher in this
time, Dude, we had somefucking duds. Well, I was like,

(07:55):
Okay, I wanted to know Iwas ultry y, that's what it
was. I wanted to get likeall encompassing kind of No, that's fair.
Hey. You know why I sayI regret it because I think the
song might make it to the worstsame song back up. Listen. We

(08:16):
made the rules so it went fromjobber and the best to contender in the
worst. Also, I feel likeif we didn't listen to this song as
many times as d gate, wewouldn't know how bad it is. It's
a fun one though. That's myfavorite line, So I think for me
and this goes all the way backto the qualifiers. I think you and

(08:37):
Red Fox she sons a bitch justkilled Pokemon. Pokemon all right, to
be real, to be completely real, Pokemon wouldn't have lasted this song regardless,
it would not have been I don'tknow if it would have made the
finals, but I think it wouldhave went. I think it could have
been a lot of stuff, whichwhich one you had a weak Pokemon.
No, man, no, noway, no fucking way, no fucking

(09:00):
way. Right now, I'm gonnaplay you play it. But there's no
fucking way that the Pokemon was beingany of the songs that were in the
top five. Way Nah, nah, I don't know, man. I
love the Pokemon theme. I likethe Poke rap better than the Poke theme
song. No, how am Ifucking the Poke? It's a sing along.

(09:20):
It's a fucking sing along, allright, listen. I want to
be the very best that no oneever was. But like, I don't
know, come on, this doesn'tmake me want to punch walls. Man.
I don't want to tell people tothis, like if you weren't losing
it, like if you were ina boxing match right and they started playing
this, like you're not gonna comeback. Ash is a fucking loser.

(09:41):
ASH is a loser. This isa loser song. Yeah, he's not
even our Ash anymore. This thissong isn't for that Ash. This is
the loser Ash. This is aloser's song. This is the championship for
losers. The winner circle doesn't needthis type of ship. Okay, also
shout out to this just because it'shere. This song was dumbe and I

(10:03):
wish it could have been in thistoo, But but I think I think
Pokemon could have went somewhere. Idon't think it would would have it would
have made it far, definitely,but it would have died. Wouldn't died?

(10:24):
That would have beat The Day Noexactly, but would it couldn't have
beat Sale Moon three rounds Deep?Could it beat any one piece songs?
Would you have let that happen?It can't be, so it's like,
maybe it could be. I don'tknow. The nostalgia the problem with that

(10:45):
being real with yourself at this point, and you guys broke it down in
that episode. The nostalgia factor istoo strong and it yeah, but I
would But that's the only thing that'sholding it so high is the nostalgia factor
that should carries Sala Moon pretty farthough. Yeah, I mean that's the
thing because also some of the peoplethat voted, it's like they don't they're
not listening to the songs. You'rejust going like I like say, amone,

(11:05):
Yeah you get that sense? Yeahyeah, And it's like people are
just having a bias and it's like, nah, man, there's motherfucker's in
here, shreddon coked up, justscreaming into a microphone in an office building.
One thing I will say, andthis was purely seating. As much
as I like Rock the Dragon,I was ready to kill that shit like
off ripped, Like I was puttingthis together and I was like, these

(11:28):
vocals are so shitty that I'm readyto kill it. And it made it
far And it was basically based onseating alone, because I kept thinking like,
Okay, if it comes up againstlike something I really like, it's
gone. And it didn't happen tolike that thing last until the very end.
I think it was. It dida job, don't get me wrong,
and I'm happy it did. LikeI'm glad it didn't like I don't
give a fuck. I liked allthis. No, I mean, I

(11:48):
am pretty fair. It's a lotof openings. Yeah, sixty four man,
and that's not to mention the qualifiers. I haven't done the math,
but it's got to be over onehundred songs we went through, so and
for her to get down to thesetwo is crazy away something. Yeah.
Fuck, I cannot believe Narrudo madeit. I like the song a lot.

(12:09):
I actually really liked the song.Never watched the Rudo though. This
is the funniest part is this Nouh, this just was like it won
the qualifier when we did it withMats and Jack. Oh yeah, that's
right. Um, so nobody pickedit. It just happened that I actually
the first Narrudo song that that wasalready qualify. Yeah, the first Rudo

(12:31):
song didn't make it either, andI actually liked that song. Um,
the old Gene Rudo. But whatever, this song is the shit. I
still to this day I think Nrudohas the best, uh soundtrack, not
always but theme songs. Yeah,and there's there's a couple in the end
theme song tournament. We'll see ifthose last because I actually haven't heard those
so all right. I did hearMike grab them, but I forget what

(12:54):
they sound like already. Uh.So you want to get into it all
right, So I guess we shouldjust start off. You have anything else
you want to go? No?No, no, no songs you're happy
didn't go far. I had somecowboy biba. Yeah, honestly, I'm
pretty okay with this. I Imean, having to choose between like like

(13:16):
one punch and shit like that.That was rough. I mean the Rumbling
died. You know. Look,I love I'm still sad about the r
Here's what I got for you,the og AOT because we killed that in
the in the qualify. Dude,this this was the song that started all
with me realizing like, so,do you think it gave me hyped?

(13:37):
Do you think that the original AOTsong would have went from in this tournament?
Oh? Man, no no,yeah. I just feel like it
doesn't hold up well against certain songs. I'm trying to find it. But
whatever, fine, but there yougo. That's that's a weird part in
the hook because I do like thatsong. Um no, it's a great
fucking song. It's a great fuckingopening. I can't believe we picked fuck

(14:00):
and the other AOT instead of thatone. Um oh, the one with
the other kids, the warm one. Yeah, that's about war. Yeah,
that's that's about. That was whatI lost you and Sean overruled me
on that. Yeah that was thatwas good. But whatever. But yeah,
let's get into it, um man. We are here at center stage.

(14:22):
The wife, who does you?This song beat in minisoons. I
don't have the list. I don'tknow, man, because we're not bolastic
right now. So yeah, Idon't know why this is. This is
gonna be completely different. I'm gonna, well, it's good. We do
this sober. It's good. I'mgonna tell you what it beat right now.
No, I just played a song. They know what it is.

(14:46):
I don't remember what this beat.It's a scream I guess two screams.
Actually a gallop though. No,this song is great. I really like
this, Like, this is asong I would listen to on our regular
This song has grown on the crazybefore it. There we go, wife

(15:22):
just left him. Yeah there's anotherone too, so back on his taxes,
kids hate them, his kids failing. That one is awesome. It's
just a screen. It's just aguy going to raw ass emotions. That's

(15:48):
so good. This makes me wantto watch the real lace. No,
I do want to listen to thisI want to watch this dude lot because
it's like it's not even in pitchlike you can hear just break away.
No, that's been so good aboutit. It's I like when dudes could
do like out of pitch shit andit sounds, but you have to really

(16:08):
do it right for just sounds yea, and he does it great that yo,
you feel it like you can feellike it's dude, he's I don't
know what it is, but he'sjust fucking going off. Son. I
really I like that song. I'mglad this made it to the final just
from like I'm not mad musical standpointlike that. That motherfucker went through it,
that whole that whole song is rough. Surprised, yes, upset about

(16:30):
it. No, No, that'sfair. It's fair because we both like
ready Jack, he doesn't know whatthis is. I mean he does,
he has an idea. It's oneof two sounds. I am scared,
and I think I know which oneone, and I hope it's the one
that I'm in my head. Otherwiseit's, oh my god, I don't
know what's gonna happen. I'm scared. I'm scared. You give me a
lot does Naruto no thing. WellI'll see yes, yes, oh yo,

(17:06):
you know what I mean. Youknow it's gonna take the win one
punch. It just takes one punchto one to qualify it. Let's go
sh Yeah, I heard that offthe pipe. I I what before we
talk about that? Let's is thatthe song rock? Oh? You know

(17:33):
what's interesting? Rock? I couldrip it, man, it's fine up
like yeah, so that hero justgrab at the next. So when it
comes down to these hype versus angst, the two things you want an animate
thing. So either hyper angst brothis is this is the different type of

(17:56):
emotion though, this is like acombination of emotion. It is hype,
but it's all you're right, it'sgot. I can't believe it beat the
Day and the Day. It's adope song. But this is way better
than I think. Like it wasa drastic out. Would it be fire?
Yeah? It was pretty drastic,you know. Oh yeah, I

(18:18):
went with trunk fucking Jesus letter.See now that's a scream in pitch,
Like that's a scream that should bethere. Yeah, it's interesting. It's
a nice little a little matchup here. I do think I was surprised.
Okay, so one of them iswell polished, one of them isn't.
Like it's kind of crazy, thething about the day not making it too.
I so when we started this toime, I liked it. Of course

(18:41):
I love that song, but Inever really thought it could go all the
way. And then after like thefirst round, I was like, you
know what, I'm gonna push thisship all the way. And it didn't
make it. And I'm not upsetabout it, but I it's bitter sweet
for me because I don't really watchone one punch like that. But this
theme song is fucking sick. Yesit is. Um. The dude singing

(19:02):
is awesome, the guitar is awesome. I think we both know where we're
going. Yeah, I mean wemight as well just start thanking every I
will say though, I listened tothe dub one I was gonna play it
instead of this one, and Iactually liked this version of way better than
I think. Really I got todo? Right? Is it the one
that I sent you with gout thebig teeth? Uh? I think so?

(19:26):
Jonathan something No, no, no, no, I don't know that's
what y'all listen to? That guydoes good wait, did I not put
it on. We'll worry about thatanyway. So you're a winner. Oh

(19:48):
yeah, I mean that's where youhere. That was great. I love
that. I love you for that. Yeah, this is dope. It
is one punch, man. Um. That's fucking hundreds and hundreds of songs,
thousands of hours of musical content,thousands of thousands downloads. Thank you,

(20:14):
no, but it's fucked up becauseit's like, I did not think
One Punch was gonna make it thisfar, and I put it in.
What did you think was gonna soyou thought it was the Rumbling? I
thought it was gonna be the Rumblingeasily one of the one piece songs by
or Crazy Rainbow Star or I honestlyat one point thought like Seiler Move was
just gonna make it all the wayto final. I almost wanted it to

(20:34):
be Sailing Moons, but I reallywas like, this song is gonna just
beat, it's gonna steamroll everything becauseof nostalgia, and this song wins clean.
Um, I never thought it wouldhave. But it's got a it's
got like a power to it.That's a dope song. It's it's crazy
that it was a polar opposite inthe finals. I'm glad that's cool.

(20:55):
We got all things from a lotof Yeah, but there was a lot
of contrast, Like it was areally good matchup because dude, not to
knock the rudeo like that. Thatsong is fucking dope and it hits emotionally.
It hits you in a lot ofplaces, and it's a great song
to listen to. But also Ithink it had some fair fun, fair
fun this beers hit me. Ihad some fair seating where it like it
might have gotten knocked out by certainlike if it not begins of rumbling,

(21:18):
it probably would have lost one punch. Definitely feels like you're starting a fucking
high octane anime. It's about likefucking fight, and I mean it delivers,
like dude punches people and explodes themand there's like crazy light shows.
Yeah, that's what you need.You need to start the shoot up furiously
and just want to go a thousandmiles an hour run through a wall and
that's what that does. So forthose of you who pissed off, once

(21:38):
again, you yes, but onceagain, this isn't about what anime is
best. Don't take it that way. That's wrong. It's about the anime
theme song that a you think isbest for starting an anime, like setting
off your anime. If you startan anime, what would your draft?
This song would be my Yeah,it would be my number one pick,
but it would be there. Itwould make sense type of anime I want,

(22:00):
God damn right. Yeah, soit's it's it fits perfectly. We
talked about this livest time. Itdescribes the show, yes, which is
a nice thing for the theme songto day. It's not all most theme
songs don't do that, but theygo through pretty I mean, it's not
that much detail you have to gothrough, but it basically gives you the
here's the storyline. Yeah, soI like that in the theme song.
And yeah, the guitar is awesome, the singings awesome, fucking coming in

(22:23):
with the scream and one punch Jesuscross Yeah, and then the end where
it's like crazy sex screams best.Yeah. So I think I think it.
I think it's fair. So onepunch Man, that bold bast It's
Atamo has the biggest anime meat ofall time A time. I really like

(22:52):
that. That's genuinely like making mehappy. Slap that together today, Uh
yes, I was like, wegotta do something. They don't got confetti
and nothing, but we got wegot little songs looking at the belt in
the corner. Um. Anyway,thanks for listening to everybody. That's been
an awesome experience. I think thisis what we want for. We get

(23:15):
it's not always easy to push itlike this together, but when we can,
we will because we enjoy doing this. You guys seem to enjoy listening
to it. Thank you for everyonethat helped participate in the voting and just
giving us suggestions and all that.It won't be voting anymore because it's just
it's too much where I feel badfor the listeners that don't even have a
Twitter. If I could do somethingdifferently, it would be that next tournament,

(23:36):
we're doing a snowball effect what wedisagree, triple threat in the next
round. Yeah, and it goesall the way to the finals that way.
It's just gonna be like a steamrollingeffect. Um, So it'll be
fun. It'll be some interesting matchupbecause we have three songs in one round.
Yeah at certain points, so it'sprobably gonnapen maybe four if two.

(23:59):
So listen to that. That's gonnacome out starting probably immediately in December.
December first, you gotta check thatand thanks for listening everybody, Thank you
very much, good bye, andI'll play one punch out love we good

(24:32):
so side. If anyone still listening, you, I love you. Jamming
out to this ship. You knowwhat? You know what? I just
hit me. This reminds me oflike especially that early part like a Fox

(24:53):
Kids dub than you know what Imean, Like it has some of that
vibe I could get that. Yeah, Like it's like I don't even know
that part in the beginning had warningcartoons though, I get it like that,
I know what you mean. Likemost songs from like WB start off
with like a crazy guitar and it'sjust it's like not the best singing,

(25:14):
but the building in this cool way. It's like, dude, like that
by right there reminds me of likefucking older than Muscle or something. You
know what I'm saying. You gottagot a couple. I regret that not
going into the tournament. But thesubspike, the sub one is really good.

(25:37):
God damn, that's a scream.Go bye,
