Thanks again to everyone for tuning in to filet o fish propaganda- er, I mean CS2 in a nutshell. You probably noticed some voice changes here and there. The program that I use unfortunately adds and deletes voices from their catalog as they see fit. So there's no guarantee that some characters will consistently have the same voice throughout each new video. Though I do hope Aurelia and McBurn's don't go away because I really like those two personally. But yeah, I can now fully turn my attention back to Cold Steel 3 and a couple of other reviews I've had on the backburner for a while now. Take care!
Okay I've seen you mention this multiple times now and I feel the need to correct this. What Vita was saying wasn't that the war of the lions has happened multiple times throughout Erebonia history(its only happened once) and the hexen clan is suppose to cover stuff up. What she was saying was that there has been a muiltitude of wars (and whats she's meaning to is wars involving Divine Knights) and that its the Hexen Clans job to clean them up. They don't hide the details of the wars at all. The Hexen Clans job is to ensure that some of the knights get their pilots is all so they have to make sure their awakeners are led to said knights. After each war it use to be the Hexen Clans job to get the knights back to their resting spots and then then resolve any problems that existed from them. This STOPPED with the War of Lions due to various things. Thats all, Erebonia is a country of war and Vita was trying to point that out to them that wars happen all the time with them and she believes the hexen clan should try to do more to stop them.
I'm not going to lie, when Vita said "guys look, the western release date for Kai No Kiseki", I asked "where?" and looked. She completely got me with that.
A certified masterpiece. Ngl, the bit with Vita's misdirection about Kai really got me. 🌠 11/10 thumbnail, with Croire (who I thought was Olaf Craig, at first), Rufus and Rean! 🖌
Not going to lie, as great as everything in here is, my favorite part was McBurn doing a call-back to the "Renne ditching Estelle and Joshua at the end of The 3rd" scene.
Alright, here we go! I watched this when it was a members’ video (You got me, Weapons. You hooked me in with that last community post and I finally gave in to temptation. I hope you’re happy!) so had time to write up this really long comment about it before it became more public and copy-paste it straight away. Of course, if there are any edits from that version, the timestamps will be all messed up but I can probably edit that later and generally most comments should make it clear what scene I’m talking about. 2:30 When a knight goes full General Grievous it’s time to call Valimar. 3:28 Vita is Kondo confirmed. 3:30 I remember the joke in funny moments where Vita talked about Daybreak 2’s English release date. Good continuity! 3:40 Black Millium!!! 5:10 This is a surprisingly panicky and uncool voice for Rufus. It almost sounds as though he’s got ants in his pants and is trying to remember if he left the iron on at home so Duke Albarea doesn’t give him a spanking. 6:04 All Dieter had to do to win was pay some confederates in other countries to keep saying “barrier” so that Lloyd would keep travelling as far away as he could and would never be able to confront him. 6:25 The soldats coming in is basically this game’s equivalent of the Enforcers coming in every chapter. 6:37 “Stop calling me that or I will turn you into a sheet of paper!” 7:15 This is why only Rean does monologues. 7:54 Or float up there with Lammy. 8:58 BB’s used to the Enforcers’ crazy freedom and doesn’t even question it. 10:37 Whoa now, Aurelia wouldn’t say blasphemous things like that about Laura! 11:23 Ngl I think this is the best joke in the whole series! 12:05 Yay Duvalie! I wonder who’s the biggest fan. Duvalie of Arianrhod or CDNW of Claire and Elaine (Falcom subreddit reference, iykyk). 12:48 Oh, is this referencing the controversy over his localised name McBurn that you mentioned? I don’t use Twitter so I didn’t see this. What was the controversy? 13:03 And not Sharon’s version of “tied”… 13:06 Black Flames? Does that mean there’s a character in the party called Flames? 13:25 “Would you do it for a Scooby Snack? Would you do it for TWO Scooby Snacks?” 15:30 This is an extra reason Celine hated being thrown out of Valimar. Being a cat, she REALLY wanted those fish filet sandwiches too. 16:55 Y’know, I just realised, it’s never actively said who blew up the line. I think the implication is that is was jaegers (since they usually do the destructive stuff) hired by the Imperial Government as a way to annex Jurai, but it’s never that clear. 20:47 Even though Rean SAID IT in the game! Goddamn it, Falcom, how could you miss that opportunity? 21:12 Towa sounds about as happy to see Angie as the rest of the fandom (not me, I like her. She’s overhated. I mean, it’s not like Olivier hasn’t said anything questionable. Why is Angie apparently so much worse? And you can make Adol do disturbing things in Ys 1, 2 and Oath. Whether it’s canonical that he does that is a mystery). 21:35 Alisa “Let my mum go right now!” Irina: “I didn’t ask for your help.” Alisa: “… You know what, never mind. You can keep her.” 22:00 The Divine Blade of Wind is no problem when you’ve got Gaius. 22:30 One of Irina’s (very) few cool moments. 24:47 Imagine Gideon and Vulcan in Gehenna wondering why they can’t find Osborne and then their utter horror when they see him appear again in the Infernal Castle. 25:00: Ah, yep, that’s a VERY frustrating aspect of Trails. Seven long games in a world of terrorism, monsters evil societies, demons, cults and wars and Crow is the only main party member to die. No deaths is one thing in a series like Atelier which are relaxing games that aren’t about being grim or dark, but in a series about major conflicts like Trails, it REALLY clashes with the tone. 25:30 I propose whenever a character clearly lies from now on, another character responds with “Bullschmidt!” 26:18 “Scarlett, you can’t spell “Life” without “ILF” Right now your members haven’t followed that mantra very well.” 29:08 WHOA there, Weapons. Careful with your wording. “This doesn’t look like the candy store” is a line commonly associated with something very bad. Add to the fact that Cedric is standing right to next to a kid Altina around his age in questionable clothing means he should be VERY concerned. Paradise has been destroyed, Cayenne, let’s not go there again. I know he has facial hair, but that doesn’t make him ex-Speaker Hartmann… right? 29:34 “Am I becoming like Mean Rean? Or would I be Dead-Sick Cedric?” 33:05 I love how EVERYONE calls Rean out on his delusion that they’re still being neutral. 34:55 Rean: “Just remember, the 4th Law of Physics always comes to collect.” Sara: “But the 5th Law of CS2 Save Data does not carry over to CS3.” 35:58 “We finally found the Royal Family.” *Ignores his sister* *Elise dies a little inside* 36:40 Yeah, this scene is also kinda weird. Duvalie was beaten by only a few members of Class VII when she was fully prepped and ready to fight. Now just two acts later she can take them all down single-handedly when she’s tired, including A-rank bracer Sara and Cloud-trained Laura. 37:26 Alisa: “I’m so confused. Why did you switch from your in-game portraits to roughly-drawn ones!?” 38:31 Seeing Wii Sports memes still be used today is pretty nostalgic. I may not actively buy any console newer than the PS1, but if I still have a console left over from when I was a kid, I ain’t gonna complain! 39:00 “Radiant Many Lions! Or should I call that… Radiant Pride!” 39:44 “Good thing he didn’t ask for it before orbal trucks were invented. He’s making up for time when the Empress wouldn’t allow him.” 39:53 I can imagine so many Italian players laughing at this name. “Heed my call, Red-Haired, the Vermillion Knight!” (Although it’s very fitting that Shirley’s biggest weapon is her Red Hair). 42:59 I LOVE the effort you’re giving Valimar. I see you appreciate his greatness. Hope he gets plenty more screentime in the future! And hope his focus on dating continues! 45:13 Wait until Crow finds out they were doing all this to bring him back. 45:37 Oh god are you doing this deliberately or is it just my weird thinking? “Get in the robot!” makes me think of “Get in the car!” 46:24 “Stay focused and don’t get cocky!” Isn’t that Machias’ battle line? I could be wrong. 48:47 An Aes Sedai statement if ever there was one. 49:00 The real reason Cayenne got arrested. 49:10 Imagine if Osborne stepped on stage before Crow died, and Crow’s last sight was the Chancellor still alive. Might sound cold, but maybe it’s for the best that he died when he did. Even if he didn’t get fatally injured, he would probably be executed by Osborned and the Reformists. 49:57 The Cold Steel-specific running gag, “Nonononononononoyesyesyesyesyesyes.” 50:28 Getting’ over the 3D barrier. 51:12 *Battle Against a True Hero* plays 51:43 Claire is Rean’s big sister figure, asking if he wants anyone turned into a sheet of paper. 53:05 When you think about it, this is pretty messed-up. Rean wants to kill a clearly intelligent being purely for the satisfaction of killing it. Even though it was made very clear there’d be no benefit to doing so. (And considering CS2 save files don’t carry over and you gain no EXP from it since it’s the final part of gameplay, it really is completely pointless. 53:33 Is this a quote from something? 54:00 “Oh yeah, sorry Rean. We’re leaving you alone now!” 54:30 The best ending! 55:16 And the best final line! Imagine if Rean actually DID go all the way through NG+ only to hear Thomas was something he’d never heard of. Phew! Sorry for the long running commentary. Just thought I’d use the extra time before the public release. I love how Rean is pretty much constantly annoyed or angry in this nutshell, which is pretty appropriate considering the constant beating this game gives him. Alfin seems pretty fed up throughout too lol. Maybe she’s tired Elise isn’t making any progress with Rean. Also character development with Laura going from needing three hits to kill a monster to one-lion instakilling. The only thing I thought was a shame is I was hoping for a bit more Celine sass and the r-loving Prrrrrrrrrrrovincial Arrrrrrrmy officerrrrrr, but this was an all-round hilarious nutshell as usual. Especially considering how much you said you struggled making it funny.
First of, thanks for joining. I appreciate it! Vita is Kondo confirmed. I think he lies more than she ever could lmao 3:30 I remember the joke in funny moments where Vita talked about Daybreak 2’s English release date. Good continuity! The funny thing is, I straight up do not remember saying this. I mean, I probably did, but a lot of jokes I make in funny moments are completely off the top of my head and I've already forgotten about my own commentary by the time I've uploaded it. So if a joke get repeated in a Nutshell it's probably because I genuinely didn't remember making it before. 3:40 Black Millium!!! Now they need to fuse and create grey Millium. 5:10 This is a surprisingly panicky and uncool voice for Rufus. It almost sounds as though he’s got ants in his pants and is trying to remember if he left the iron on at home so Duke Albarea doesn’t give him a spanking. Maybe I'll work in an in-universe reason for why he sounds so anxious. But yeah, I mentioned this in another reply, but his voice sounded less weird when I used it last time in CS1. But that's also probably because he only had a couple lines and not extensive dialogue like this one. I just couldn't find many others that sounded somewhat close to his real VA. Maybe when I do CS3 they'll have some more, idk. 6:04 All Dieter had to do to win was pay some confederates in other countries to keep saying “barrier” so that Lloyd would keep travelling as far away as he could and would never be able to confront him. Lloyd neuron activation lol 7:54 Or float up there with Lammy. They probably had anti air defenses, so idk. Then again Lammy can move pretty fast so maybe she could've pulled it off. 11:23 Ngl I think this is the best joke in the whole series! It's always the jokes I don't give much thought to that end up sticking the most, it seems. 12:48 Oh, is this referencing the controversy over his localised name McBurn that you mentioned? I don’t use Twitter so I didn’t see this. What was the controversy? No, it wasn't that. The joke was McBurn was tuning out the "cringe" and Duvalie immediately assumed he was talking about Laura, but he was actually talking about Doobs. 13:06 Black Flames? Does that mean there’s a character in the party called Flames? I guess that would just be Campanella since he's enforcer 0 and also uses fire. 16:55 Y’know, I just realised, it’s never actively said who blew up the line. I think the implication is that is was jaegers (since they usually do the destructive stuff) hired by the Imperial Government as a way to annex Jurai, but it’s never that clear. Yeah I just assumed the empire did it to themselves to push Jurai into a corner and get them annexed. 21:12 Towa sounds about as happy to see Angie as the rest of the fandom (not me, I like her. She’s overhated. I mean, it’s not like Olivier hasn’t said anything questionable. Why is Angie apparently so much worse? And you can make Adol do disturbing things in Ys 1, 2 and Oath. Whether it’s canonical that he does that is a mystery). Yeah it's kind of just a trope that Falcom, as well as anime and JRPGs in general, do a lot. I guess it's because Angie is a lot less subtle about it. Wouldn't condone her actions irl, obviously, but I find her funny from behind a screen. 22:00 The Divine Blade of Wind is no problem when you’ve got Gaius. Permenent 50% STR buff and all crafts do crit damage 24:47 Imagine Gideon and Vulcan in Gehenna wondering why they can’t find Osborne and then their utter horror when they see him appear again in the Infernal Castle. Ok, no joke I was already thinking of doing a "Meanwhile in Gehenna" video featuring all of the deceased villains so far and this makes me want to do that more now lmao. 25:00: Ah, yep, that’s a VERY frustrating aspect of Trails. Seven long games in a world of terrorism, monsters evil societies, demons, cults and wars and Crow is the only main party member to die. No deaths is one thing in a series like Atelier which are relaxing games that aren’t about being grim or dark, but in a series about major conflicts like Trails, it REALLY clashes with the tone. I'm not necessarily saying I want more characters to start dropping like flies, but I do find it funny how egregiously thick the plot armor is all things considered. 26:18 “Scarlett, you can’t spell “Life” without “ILF” Right now your members haven’t followed that mantra very well.” Actually, Vulcan said most of them had quit willingly by the intermission. I think only Vulcan, Crow, Gideon, and the rest of the Orchis tower crew are the only documented ILF deaths. 29:08 WHOA there, Weapons. Careful with your wording. “This doesn’t look like the candy store” is a line commonly associated with something very bad. Add to the fact that Cedric is standing right to next to a kid Altina around his age in questionable clothing means he should be VERY concerned. Paradise has been destroyed, Cayenne, let’s not go there again. I know he has facial hair, but that doesn’t make him ex-Speaker Hartmann… right? Oof. I genuinely did not think of it this way and only used candy because I could invest in "Cedric likes chocolate" jokes for the near future. 29:34 “Am I becoming like Mean Rean? Or would I be Dead-Sick Cedric?” Judging by what I've seen of him so far in CS3 sounds like he's gonna be Total-Dick Cedric. 35:58 “We finally found the Royal Family.” Ignores his sister Elise dies a little inside She gave him a stern talking to when they got back to Ymir lol 37:26 Alisa: “I’m so confused. Why did you switch from your in-game portraits to roughly-drawn ones!?” Those are their concept art pictures and I only used those because none of Claire's battle portraits show her smiling. 45:37 Oh god are you doing this deliberately or is it just my weird thinking? “Get in the robot!” makes me think of “Get in the car!” Nah, it was a reference to Neon Genesis Evangelion, though you did tell me you had only seen a handful of anime so I get why you missed it. 46:24 “Stay focused and don’t get cocky!” Isn’t that Machias’ battle line? I could be wrong. Might be, sounds like something he'd say. 49:00 The real reason Cayenne got arrested. LMAO 49:10 Imagine if Osborne stepped on stage before Crow died, and Crow’s last sight was the Chancellor still alive. Might sound cold, but maybe it’s for the best that he died when he did. Even if he didn’t get fatally injured, he would probably be executed by Osborned and the Reformists. Interesting take. Yeah, he might've lucked out, all things considered. 51:12 Battle Against a True Hero plays Shit, I meant to add this and forgot. 53:05 When you think about it, this is pretty messed-up. Rean wants to kill a clearly intelligent being purely for the satisfaction of killing it. Even though it was made very clear there’d be no benefit to doing so. (And considering CS2 save files don’t carry over and you gain no EXP from it since it’s the final part of gameplay, it really is completely pointless. Yeah I wondered the same thing. Like if he's not harming anyone and doesn't inflict any environmental damage just from existing just let him chill, lol 53:33 Is this a quote from something? IDK. I came up with it off the top of my head, but I wouldn't doubt if it's been said before. 54:00 “Oh yeah, sorry Rean. We’re leaving you alone now!” I don't like how vague the game was with this because I was genuinely shocked to see everyone leaving without him. 54:30 The best ending! I literally got to the end of editing the video, forgot that Thomas hadn't been included, and then made up that last scene. The things that run through my head at the most random times haha. I love how Rean is pretty much constantly annoyed or angry in this nutshell, which is pretty appropriate considering the constant beating this game gives him. Alfin seems pretty fed up throughout too lol. Maybe she’s tired Elise isn’t making any progress with Rean. Also character development with Laura going from needing three hits to kill a monster to one-lion instakilling. In reality it's because Rean's first voice was removed and none of the others sounded like it, so I had to just pick one. Now I'm wondering if I need to give him a new more mellow one for CS3. It'd be funny if he ended up with a different voice for each game in the arc lol Yeah it was long. Thanks for watching though. Double thanks for joining!
@weaponsci that may be it, he's. That said, you did what you could. This game is heavier than CS1, and a lot more serious as well, must have been hard to create jokes. You are going to have a VERY hard time doing CS4 in a Nutshell, if you ever want to do it.
Sky in a Nutshell: "We get to be Cops!" Cold Steel in a Nutshell: "We get to have a super complicated plot that needs exhaustive explanation!" Seriously, these videos have really evolved over the last couple of years.
27:35 Missed opportunity. Gaius would've definitely said "Pay better attention. She's definitely winded" 41:55 Missed opportunity. Since Gaius asked the question, he should have followed up the exposition with "so was that a long-winded way of saying that you're an old game villain simp"?
I can not wait for *readcted* in a nutshell where we learn what Vita meant in her cryptic speech and what Ouroboros has been doing since Sky. Because *redacted* has *insert big spoiler here* happen that makes Ouroboros even more sus and cryptic. But at least Lauras training with Cloud did something while Brobot racks his brain who Rean should marry from all the candidates. When it should obviously be his version of Asuna, because Rean is a Kirito clone from 2012 and we all know the teenagers back then loved Tsundere waifus who are actually soft. I like Tsunderes and Cedric should probably not have eaten all of that chocolate. I hope his bowels recover from that. And yes, we do need Captain Towa merch with the hat. Fies and Elliots best outfits are their casual ones. Fie finally gets actual clothing and she wears a hat. I like hats. Everyone should wear a hat in the next game.

Okay I've seen you mention this multiple times now and I feel the need to correct this. What Vita was saying wasn't that the war of the lions has happened multiple times throughout Erebonia history(its only happened once) and the hexen clan is suppose to cover stuff up.

Ok, thanks for the clarification
@@weaponsci You are welcome, and sorry for the ramble. Just wanted to clarify so you didn't get the wrong impression was all.
@thekingler4578 yeah I guess I just interpreted it wrong, especially with Cayenne's motives specifically being tied to the War of the Lions
I'm not going to lie, when Vita said "guys look, the western release date for Kai No Kiseki", I asked "where?" and looked. She completely got me with that.
Trails of 50 Mira: The Quest For Fish Filet Sandwiches In The 90s.
Trails of Cold Steel II: We’re Back Baby.
11:22 These are not the -droids- students you are looking for.
44:43 Valimar is almost like an older brother or something and I'm here for it.
thumbnail goes hard
I was actually gonna have that be (from left to right) Osborne, Rufus, Cayenne, but figured it'd probably be a bit too spoiler-ish for a thumbnail
10:21 Aurelia just spitting straight facts here like DAYUUMMM
now i know how she was able to get enough soldiers to conquer the ice land of jaegers
Nice use of the Running in the 90s meme with the running scene and the literal pun of Cold Steel.
4:25 When your Villain Roster isnt even half complete, but you do a roll-call anyway😂
A certified masterpiece. Ngl, the bit with Vita's misdirection about Kai really got me. 🌠
11/10 thumbnail, with Croire (who I thought was Olaf Craig, at first), Rufus and Rean! 🖌
You're lime the third person who fell for the Kai joke and now I'm sitting here wondering how strong Kondo's hold is on y'all lmao
I Am Your Father.
MC : Surprised pikachu face.
3:00 ZeroLenny owns this tone of voice forever
8:00 "She who bears the Obsidian Lammy" Hilarious
I guess we just have to make our own Captain Towa Merch😅
based WeaponCl using the sara bonding scene instead of any of the girls
I picked her during my playthrough so it was just a matter of already having the footage lol
The voice you chose for Rufus is killing me 😂
The Duke Cayenne face in the thumbnail is comedical and peak
6:45 the bit about Elliot had me laughing out loud 😅 also fish fillet lmao
Not going to lie, as great as everything in here is, my favorite part was McBurn doing a call-back to the "Renne ditching Estelle and Joshua at the end of The 3rd" scene.
I love McBurn's voice for some reason
The entire talking segment for Le Guin at about 10:20 .....never been so called out for being her simp....yet I can't dispute her claims. 😂
This one was so good lol, one of the best you've done so far.
Thx
I forgot that rufus killed grianos and sent vita's staff to the shadow realm 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Poor Grianos. Bro deserved better
I love it so much going to listen to it again
gonna mcburn all over the place
Also 32:25 Imagine not using Emma with Crescent Mirror to make Grianos kill itself
Unfortunately Laura S broke before Emma could open up the Craft menu
@@weaponsci Fair enough
It's just a funny safe strat because Grianos has no physical attacks
I see your point, but I forever stand by Laura being best girl.
man ive been busy irl, stumble upon this nutshell on yt realize i have weird hobbies of playing hareem games with overpowered strenght
Why does Rufus always sound out of breath and why do I find it so funny.
He had the same voice but sounded better in CS1. But maybe that's because he only had like two lines.
It almost sound like he the main character
(Complete foreshadow)
Fish fillets and "I'm back baby"
Thomas the dank engine did not disappoint
at around 24:40, you missed a golden opportunity to have gaius say duvalie is winded
Not gonna lie: Nutshell Rean sounds like he is constantly ticked of...
Guy is having a bad time😅
im back baby😂!!! 0:51
BARRIERS 🚧!!! 6:00
what's that sound?😂 47:13
3D*wink 😉* 50:19
*insert intense sobbing* A.I. can't cry😂 53:44
*Correct bonding event choice in Sara though lol*
Finally!! These are sublime
Yessss I can't wait!!!!!, currently on cold steel 4 😊
He's back baby
Thank you for your two cents valimar very cool
Sooner than I anticipated yessssss
The music choices in this one were inspired.
I do love a good fish filet sandwich
31:15 WITNESS THE PROOF OF MY TRAINING
I got 24hrs to live ima watch this twice
Rean screaming "fuck off" to Vita feels very real xd
54:26 Ok, I believe you!
24 hours to go
Is anyone a friendly guy we can trust ?
I'm back baby.
Why is McBurn bulliying Duvalie like that lmao
It’s just so peak
Love it!
Hype
Okay, how did you get Miles Morales into this video, my mind is blown!
Miles?
Alright, here we go! I watched this when it was a members’ video (You got me, Weapons. You hooked me in with that last community post and I finally gave in to temptation. I hope you’re happy!) so had time to write up this really long comment about it before it became more public and copy-paste it straight away. Of course, if there are any edits from that version, the timestamps will be all messed up but I can probably edit that later and generally most comments should make it clear what scene I’m talking about.
2:30 When a knight goes full General Grievous it’s time to call Valimar.
3:28 Vita is Kondo confirmed.
3:30 I remember the joke in funny moments where Vita talked about Daybreak 2’s English release date. Good continuity!
3:40 Black Millium!!!
5:10 This is a surprisingly panicky and uncool voice for Rufus. It almost sounds as though he’s got ants in his pants and is trying to remember if he left the iron on at home so Duke Albarea doesn’t give him a spanking.
6:04 All Dieter had to do to win was pay some confederates in other countries to keep saying “barrier” so that Lloyd would keep travelling as far away as he could and would never be able to confront him.
6:25 The soldats coming in is basically this game’s equivalent of the Enforcers coming in every chapter.
6:37 “Stop calling me that or I will turn you into a sheet of paper!”
7:15 This is why only Rean does monologues.
7:54 Or float up there with Lammy.
8:58 BB’s used to the Enforcers’ crazy freedom and doesn’t even question it.
10:37 Whoa now, Aurelia wouldn’t say blasphemous things like that about Laura!
11:23 Ngl I think this is the best joke in the whole series!
12:05 Yay Duvalie! I wonder who’s the biggest fan. Duvalie of Arianrhod or CDNW of Claire and Elaine (Falcom subreddit reference, iykyk).
12:48 Oh, is this referencing the controversy over his localised name McBurn that you mentioned? I don’t use Twitter so I didn’t see this. What was the controversy?
13:03 And not Sharon’s version of “tied”…
13:06 Black Flames? Does that mean there’s a character in the party called Flames?
13:25 “Would you do it for a Scooby Snack? Would you do it for TWO Scooby Snacks?”
15:30 This is an extra reason Celine hated being thrown out of Valimar. Being a cat, she REALLY wanted those fish filet sandwiches too.
16:55 Y’know, I just realised, it’s never actively said who blew up the line. I think the implication is that is was jaegers (since they usually do the destructive stuff) hired by the Imperial Government as a way to annex Jurai, but it’s never that clear.
20:47 Even though Rean SAID IT in the game! Goddamn it, Falcom, how could you miss that opportunity?
21:12 Towa sounds about as happy to see Angie as the rest of the fandom (not me, I like her. She’s overhated. I mean, it’s not like Olivier hasn’t said anything questionable. Why is Angie apparently so much worse? And you can make Adol do disturbing things in Ys 1, 2 and Oath. Whether it’s canonical that he does that is a mystery).
21:35 Alisa “Let my mum go right now!” Irina: “I didn’t ask for your help.” Alisa: “… You know what, never mind. You can keep her.”
22:00 The Divine Blade of Wind is no problem when you’ve got Gaius.
22:30 One of Irina’s (very) few cool moments.
24:47 Imagine Gideon and Vulcan in Gehenna wondering why they can’t find Osborne and then their utter horror when they see him appear again in the Infernal Castle.
25:00: Ah, yep, that’s a VERY frustrating aspect of Trails. Seven long games in a world of terrorism, monsters evil societies, demons, cults and wars and Crow is the only main party member to die. No deaths is one thing in a series like Atelier which are relaxing games that aren’t about being grim or dark, but in a series about major conflicts like Trails, it REALLY clashes with the tone.
25:30 I propose whenever a character clearly lies from now on, another character responds with “Bullschmidt!”
26:18 “Scarlett, you can’t spell “Life” without “ILF” Right now your members haven’t followed that mantra very well.”
29:08 WHOA there, Weapons. Careful with your wording. “This doesn’t look like the candy store” is a line commonly associated with something very bad. Add to the fact that Cedric is standing right to next to a kid Altina around his age in questionable clothing means he should be VERY concerned. Paradise has been destroyed, Cayenne, let’s not go there again. I know he has facial hair, but that doesn’t make him ex-Speaker Hartmann… right?
29:34 “Am I becoming like Mean Rean? Or would I be Dead-Sick Cedric?”
33:05 I love how EVERYONE calls Rean out on his delusion that they’re still being neutral.
34:55 Rean: “Just remember, the 4th Law of Physics always comes to collect.” Sara: “But the 5th Law of CS2 Save Data does not carry over to CS3.”
35:58 “We finally found the Royal Family.” *Ignores his sister* *Elise dies a little inside*
36:40 Yeah, this scene is also kinda weird. Duvalie was beaten by only a few members of Class VII when she was fully prepped and ready to fight. Now just two acts later she can take them all down single-handedly when she’s tired, including A-rank bracer Sara and Cloud-trained Laura.
37:26 Alisa: “I’m so confused. Why did you switch from your in-game portraits to roughly-drawn ones!?”
38:31 Seeing Wii Sports memes still be used today is pretty nostalgic. I may not actively buy any console newer than the PS1, but if I still have a console left over from when I was a kid, I ain’t gonna complain!
39:00 “Radiant Many Lions! Or should I call that… Radiant Pride!”
39:44 “Good thing he didn’t ask for it before orbal trucks were invented. He’s making up for time when the Empress wouldn’t allow him.”
39:53 I can imagine so many Italian players laughing at this name. “Heed my call, Red-Haired, the Vermillion Knight!” (Although it’s very fitting that Shirley’s biggest weapon is her Red Hair).
42:59 I LOVE the effort you’re giving Valimar. I see you appreciate his greatness. Hope he gets plenty more screentime in the future! And hope his focus on dating continues!
45:13 Wait until Crow finds out they were doing all this to bring him back.
45:37 Oh god are you doing this deliberately or is it just my weird thinking? “Get in the robot!” makes me think of “Get in the car!”
46:24 “Stay focused and don’t get cocky!” Isn’t that Machias’ battle line? I could be wrong.
48:47 An Aes Sedai statement if ever there was one.
49:00 The real reason Cayenne got arrested.
49:10 Imagine if Osborne stepped on stage before Crow died, and Crow’s last sight was the Chancellor still alive. Might sound cold, but maybe it’s for the best that he died when he did. Even if he didn’t get fatally injured, he would probably be executed by Osborned and the Reformists.
49:57 The Cold Steel-specific running gag, “Nonononononononoyesyesyesyesyesyes.”
50:28 Getting’ over the 3D barrier.
51:12 *Battle Against a True Hero* plays
51:43 Claire is Rean’s big sister figure, asking if he wants anyone turned into a sheet of paper.
53:05 When you think about it, this is pretty messed-up. Rean wants to kill a clearly intelligent being purely for the satisfaction of killing it. Even though it was made very clear there’d be no benefit to doing so. (And considering CS2 save files don’t carry over and you gain no EXP from it since it’s the final part of gameplay, it really is completely pointless.
53:33 Is this a quote from something?
54:00 “Oh yeah, sorry Rean. We’re leaving you alone now!”
54:30 The best ending!
55:16 And the best final line! Imagine if Rean actually DID go all the way through NG+ only to hear Thomas was something he’d never heard of.
Phew! Sorry for the long running commentary. Just thought I’d use the extra time before the public release.
I love how Rean is pretty much constantly annoyed or angry in this nutshell, which is pretty appropriate considering the constant beating this game gives him. Alfin seems pretty fed up throughout too lol. Maybe she’s tired Elise isn’t making any progress with Rean. Also character development with Laura going from needing three hits to kill a monster to one-lion instakilling.
The only thing I thought was a shame is I was hoping for a bit more Celine sass and the r-loving Prrrrrrrrrrrovincial Arrrrrrrmy officerrrrrr, but this was an all-round hilarious nutshell as usual. Especially considering how much you said you struggled making it funny.
First of, thanks for joining. I appreciate it!
Vita is Kondo confirmed.
I think he lies more than she ever could lmao
3:30 I remember the joke in funny moments where Vita talked about Daybreak 2’s English release date. Good continuity!
The funny thing is, I straight up do not remember saying this. I mean, I probably did, but a lot of jokes I make in funny moments are completely off the top of my head and I've already forgotten about my own commentary by the time I've uploaded it. So if a joke get repeated in a Nutshell it's probably because I genuinely didn't remember making it before.
3:40 Black Millium!!!
Now they need to fuse and create grey Millium.
5:10 This is a surprisingly panicky and uncool voice for Rufus. It almost sounds as though he’s got ants in his pants and is trying to remember if he left the iron on at home so Duke Albarea doesn’t give him a spanking.
Maybe I'll work in an in-universe reason for why he sounds so anxious. But yeah, I mentioned this in another reply, but his voice sounded less weird when I used it last time in CS1. But that's also probably because he only had a couple lines and not extensive dialogue like this one. I just couldn't find many others that sounded somewhat close to his real VA. Maybe when I do CS3 they'll have some more, idk.
6:04 All Dieter had to do to win was pay some confederates in other countries to keep saying “barrier” so that Lloyd would keep travelling as far away as he could and would never be able to confront him.
Lloyd neuron activation lol
7:54 Or float up there with Lammy.
They probably had anti air defenses, so idk. Then again Lammy can move pretty fast so maybe she could've pulled it off.
11:23 Ngl I think this is the best joke in the whole series!
It's always the jokes I don't give much thought to that end up sticking the most, it seems.
12:48 Oh, is this referencing the controversy over his localised name McBurn that you mentioned? I don’t use Twitter so I didn’t see this. What was the controversy?
No, it wasn't that. The joke was McBurn was tuning out the "cringe" and Duvalie immediately assumed he was talking about Laura, but he was actually talking about Doobs.
13:06 Black Flames? Does that mean there’s a character in the party called Flames?
I guess that would just be Campanella since he's enforcer 0 and also uses fire.
16:55 Y’know, I just realised, it’s never actively said who blew up the line. I think the implication is that is was jaegers (since they usually do the destructive stuff) hired by the Imperial Government as a way to annex Jurai, but it’s never that clear.
Yeah I just assumed the empire did it to themselves to push Jurai into a corner and get them annexed.
21:12 Towa sounds about as happy to see Angie as the rest of the fandom (not me, I like her. She’s overhated. I mean, it’s not like Olivier hasn’t said anything questionable. Why is Angie apparently so much worse? And you can make Adol do disturbing things in Ys 1, 2 and Oath. Whether it’s canonical that he does that is a mystery).
Yeah it's kind of just a trope that Falcom, as well as anime and JRPGs in general, do a lot. I guess it's because Angie is a lot less subtle about it. Wouldn't condone her actions irl, obviously, but I find her funny from behind a screen.
22:00 The Divine Blade of Wind is no problem when you’ve got Gaius.
Permenent 50% STR buff and all crafts do crit damage
24:47 Imagine Gideon and Vulcan in Gehenna wondering why they can’t find Osborne and then their utter horror when they see him appear again in the Infernal Castle.
Ok, no joke I was already thinking of doing a "Meanwhile in Gehenna" video featuring all of the deceased villains so far and this makes me want to do that more now lmao.
25:00: Ah, yep, that’s a VERY frustrating aspect of Trails. Seven long games in a world of terrorism, monsters evil societies, demons, cults and wars and Crow is the only main party member to die. No deaths is one thing in a series like Atelier which are relaxing games that aren’t about being grim or dark, but in a series about major conflicts like Trails, it REALLY clashes with the tone.
I'm not necessarily saying I want more characters to start dropping like flies, but I do find it funny how egregiously thick the plot armor is all things considered.
26:18 “Scarlett, you can’t spell “Life” without “ILF” Right now your members haven’t followed that mantra very well.”
Actually, Vulcan said most of them had quit willingly by the intermission. I think only Vulcan, Crow, Gideon, and the rest of the Orchis tower crew are the only documented ILF deaths.
29:08 WHOA there, Weapons. Careful with your wording. “This doesn’t look like the candy store” is a line commonly associated with something very bad. Add to the fact that Cedric is standing right to next to a kid Altina around his age in questionable clothing means he should be VERY concerned. Paradise has been destroyed, Cayenne, let’s not go there again. I know he has facial hair, but that doesn’t make him ex-Speaker Hartmann… right?
Oof. I genuinely did not think of it this way and only used candy because I could invest in "Cedric likes chocolate" jokes for the near future.
29:34 “Am I becoming like Mean Rean? Or would I be Dead-Sick Cedric?”
Judging by what I've seen of him so far in CS3 sounds like he's gonna be Total-Dick Cedric.
35:58 “We finally found the Royal Family.” Ignores his sister Elise dies a little inside
She gave him a stern talking to when they got back to Ymir lol
37:26 Alisa: “I’m so confused. Why did you switch from your in-game portraits to roughly-drawn ones!?”
Those are their concept art pictures and I only used those because none of Claire's battle portraits show her smiling.
45:37 Oh god are you doing this deliberately or is it just my weird thinking? “Get in the robot!” makes me think of “Get in the car!”
Nah, it was a reference to Neon Genesis Evangelion, though you did tell me you had only seen a handful of anime so I get why you missed it.
46:24 “Stay focused and don’t get cocky!” Isn’t that Machias’ battle line? I could be wrong.
Might be, sounds like something he'd say.
49:00 The real reason Cayenne got arrested.
LMAO
49:10 Imagine if Osborne stepped on stage before Crow died, and Crow’s last sight was the Chancellor still alive. Might sound cold, but maybe it’s for the best that he died when he did. Even if he didn’t get fatally injured, he would probably be executed by Osborned and the Reformists.
Interesting take. Yeah, he might've lucked out, all things considered.
51:12 Battle Against a True Hero plays
Shit, I meant to add this and forgot.
53:05 When you think about it, this is pretty messed-up. Rean wants to kill a clearly intelligent being purely for the satisfaction of killing it. Even though it was made very clear there’d be no benefit to doing so. (And considering CS2 save files don’t carry over and you gain no EXP from it since it’s the final part of gameplay, it really is completely pointless.
Yeah I wondered the same thing. Like if he's not harming anyone and doesn't inflict any environmental damage just from existing just let him chill, lol
53:33 Is this a quote from something?
IDK. I came up with it off the top of my head, but I wouldn't doubt if it's been said before.
54:00 “Oh yeah, sorry Rean. We’re leaving you alone now!”
I don't like how vague the game was with this because I was genuinely shocked to see everyone leaving without him.
54:30 The best ending!
I literally got to the end of editing the video, forgot that Thomas hadn't been included, and then made up that last scene. The things that run through my head at the most random times haha.
I love how Rean is pretty much constantly annoyed or angry in this nutshell, which is pretty appropriate considering the constant beating this game gives him. Alfin seems pretty fed up throughout too lol. Maybe she’s tired Elise isn’t making any progress with Rean. Also character development with Laura going from needing three hits to kill a monster to one-lion instakilling.
In reality it's because Rean's first voice was removed and none of the others sounded like it, so I had to just pick one. Now I'm wondering if I need to give him a new more mellow one for CS3. It'd be funny if he ended up with a different voice for each game in the arc lol
Yeah it was long. Thanks for watching though. Double thanks for joining!
I can't take Rufus' voice seriously omg
This is gonna get worse as the Erebonia Arc and beyong proceeds just saying.
Why does Rufus sound like he's constantly trying to hold in a massive shit?
God damnit, that Valimar "I´m back baby" got me good
Yuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuus. 🎉
Altina looks more like Fie
Dark Millium
Black Millium
She Who Bears the Obsidian Lammy
Mini Fie
Its Fish Fillet Sandwich Celebrations Day everyone. FFS CD
Drinks are on me🎉
Am I allowed to react to this on twitch
LOL
Go ahead
Hmm well, this one was weaker than the others. I mean, this video sounds... Angrier, I suppose.
It was probably Rean's new voice. I didn't have the previous one available unfortunately
@weaponsci that may be it, he's. That said, you did what you could. This game is heavier than CS1, and a lot more serious as well, must have been hard to create jokes. You are going to have a VERY hard time doing CS4 in a Nutshell, if you ever want to do it.
Sky in a Nutshell: "We get to be Cops!"
Cold Steel in a Nutshell: "We get to have a super complicated plot that needs exhaustive explanation!"
Seriously, these videos have really evolved over the last couple of years.
I've noticed they definitely get longer the deeper into the series it goes.
27:35 Missed opportunity. Gaius would've definitely said "Pay better attention. She's definitely winded"
41:55 Missed opportunity. Since Gaius asked the question, he should have followed up the exposition with "so was that a long-winded way of saying that you're an old game villain simp"?
Dammit!
Reans voice is perfection LMFAO
Rean is better written in this video than in the entire CS/Reverie arc
Hes redeemed in Kai substantially. But I agree, it took until the last 20% or so of Reverie for him to hit for me at all.
This more lines than Valimar ever gets in the series, probably😂
Also: Wingman Valimar👍
I can not wait for *readcted* in a nutshell where we learn what Vita meant in her cryptic speech and what Ouroboros has been doing since Sky. Because *redacted* has *insert big spoiler here* happen that makes Ouroboros even more sus and cryptic. But at least Lauras training with Cloud did something while Brobot racks his brain who Rean should marry from all the candidates. When it should obviously be his version of Asuna, because Rean is a Kirito clone from 2012 and we all know the teenagers back then loved Tsundere waifus who are actually soft. I like Tsunderes and Cedric should probably not have eaten all of that chocolate. I hope his bowels recover from that. And yes, we do need Captain Towa merch with the hat. Fies and Elliots best outfits are their casual ones. Fie finally gets actual clothing and she wears a hat. I like hats. Everyone should wear a hat in the next game.
I cant take Rufus's voice😅 Its so bad.
Especially considering he is voiced by D.C Doughlas in game
Oh god, all that stuff about laura is true!
McBurn >>>>> Airianrod
my goat!
