 Hello. Hello. Hello. You ready to watch some anime, babe? Yeah, but I'm going to miss Shahrukh Khan. Well, watch more Shahrukh Khan. Don't worry. Hey, welcome back to our Stupid Directions of Corbin. I'm Stephanie. You can follow us on Instagram, Twitter, and more juicy content. Thank you to everybody who watches on Patreon. Follow us on Twitter too to come subscribe and like button. Today, we're doing a watch along and it's of a anime film. Oh, the first, I guess, except for what we watched with Leland, the first animation that we've ever watched from India. Outside of what we watched with Leland, the Netflix stuff. Go check that out. Watch along with him like five minute little episodes. But this is called read that. No. Ramayana, the legend of Prince Rama. And so this was made in 1993 and it's actually it was a collaboration between Indian filmmakers and a Japanese actual anime company. It's took so the anime is, you know, you're a big fan of 90s anime, right? I like anime. Yeah. And the reason I'm doing this stuff is stuff is much more familiar with and she's not like an anime like Connoisseur, but she she likes anime watches a lot of it, especially older ones from the 90s. I'm not extremely familiar outside of what Steph has shown me, mostly Studio Ghibli. Right. Yeah, whatever. It's called Studio Ghibli. Rick had never seen an anime ever. So I didn't know if it was I'm still going to have a watch it, but I didn't know if the watch along would be good. But this is something that he's never seen. He said he's never seen an anime film ever in his 50 or 100 years of life. How old are all these? I don't know how old he is. That is shocking. Yeah, but this is a. A Hindu is a Hindu story. And it's we often call it like a goal. Say like we see something and we call it mythology. But obviously a lot of like in the comments of this is not mythology. This is our history kind of so it's it's that kind of story to to Indians and Hindus. And it's been remade into films like 50 times and TV shows. So it's a story that every Indian knows. So this story and a new film coming out that has like Prabhas and Saif and it's comes up next week. It's getting bad because like a lot of the VFX are pretty bad on it. But it's another retelling of this, essentially. Like one of the females is like the mother of all Hindus. There's Ram. There's the Monkey God. I don't know his name. I apologize. So many different things. So like Sita. Is that what it is? I don't know. I don't know. So this is actually going to be kind of educational because this story is kind of just widely, widely known in for 90s kids. They grew up on this anime itself. OK. So everybody knows this one in India. And we did get I know the English version is on YouTube. I did was able to find the Hindi version, which a lot of people say is a lot better, no, no shock with the subtitles and in a much better quality than the English version on YouTube. So other than that, I don't know. I just know it's this big epic Hindu tale. OK. I'm excited. I'm to learn. This is actually more of like a class less than I feel. So is it going to be like it's going to be like battles and right? But it'll be like, you know, because in a lot of the movies we watch, there's like underlining. Yes. Story. So it'll be like, oh, my gosh, I make so much sense for like their story. Oh, also, since you're on YouTube, sorry, we were rambling for a bit to a bit of an introduction. If you're watching this on YouTube, but we can only use this to my knowledge, limited amount of picture in picture of this film. So it'll be cut up on YouTube in parts. If you'd like to see a little uncut versions, you can head over to Patreon to check out the full uncut version of our reactions. Link in the description below and the pinned comment. Here we go. So glad you're watching along with us. It's actually really cool that the Japanese company did the anime. Yeah, get it. Correct. But they also told this Hindu story. That's India. They shouldn't know. Yeah. Here aren't you, What's going on here. Ah, oh, oh, oh, my gosh! Are you sure you're a good boy? Right. I'm just a good boy. You should go. I'm sure you're going to watch with a crazy man. That's the guy and I will be right back. No, I'm not. I'm not. No, no. I'm just going to watch the по-film. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. Whenever there is a good opportunity on earth, God, Vishnu, descends from heaven and comes to earth. To free the living beings from that impurity, God, Vishnu, has removed ten. It is believed that Ram was removed along with him. In the age of 15 years of Ram, Ravan was in the city of his power. Ravan's uncle Marish and his mother was killed by Vishwamitra's snake. He used to live in a forest near the border of Ayodhya. These demons used to come every day in the night of Vishwamitra. And in the same way, Ken. Anime plays by its own rules. It's starting off violent. It's my duty to follow your orders. O great king of the Sun, the demons have destroyed the holy land. We are in great trouble. I need Ram to kill them. But they are children. I will destroy them right away. These demons have given me the power of God. And you cannot stop them, Ravan. The demons have Ram and Lakshmi along with them. Vishwamitra, Balwan and Bhutiman are all in the weapons. They will protect your sons. O Rishi Vishwamitra, I offer my son to you. Teach him and live with him. Be happy, O king of the Sun. Your decision has saved the whole world. AIES DIED The audio is a little off. Is this the smoke from Lost? Oh my word, she turned a lava. I did. Maybe you lost it. A bunch of Hinduism in it, because it was Dharma, was the company, right? That was the company, right? Oh, bro, this is violent. He cut him in half. Classic anime faces. Whoever won that got to marry, you're guessing? Rajkumar and Bhai were in love with each other. The four brothers used to live together. Their future was filled with happy hopes. I saw a very dangerous future in everyone's dreams. Guru Vasishtha is also afraid that the time to come is difficult. My health is falling. I am old. I don't have the strength to fight evil powers. That's why I have decided to take care of Ram Rajya. Ram will be the king of Ayodhya. Ram, my son, wake up and come to me. You will take care of people's well-being. I trust you. I will try to walk on your path, father. She seems bad. Poor Karayneesh. Look at you. Is this the right time to be sad? Yes, it's better now. You are making a fool out of yourself. Mantra, don't you know? Ram will be the king of Ayodhya tomorrow. That's your misfortune, Queen. Okay, you are very innocent. You don't know the message. Did you see how Rajya Dashrath cheated you? Shut up, Mantra. You don't know Rajya. You speak such words for the king. But why do you think the king has sent Bharat to Ayodhya? That too at such a auspicious time? Why? Kaushalya is very clever. Maybe he must have advised the king. You are a very loving queen, aren't you, king? This is Kaushalya's birth from you. She is your servant. Leave it. You are a true friend and a clever Mantra. You are showing lies and deceit. Why are you crying at night? Tell me, what should I do for you? A few years ago, when you were wounded in the war... For a horse? I went there and at that time you gave me two boons. Those two boons will have to give me to you right now. Only two boons? Take as many boons as you want. No, I only want two boons. And the first boon is that the great king has not fulfilled his promise. If you want to give it to me, then give only two boons. The first boon in those two boons was to become the son of Bharat, the king. And the second boon was to make Rama 14 years old. Brother, didn't you hear the people's voice? Laxman, this is what I wrote in my destiny. But shouldn't we keep this in our hands and do nothing? This sword? Is it just a trap to show? Brother, you are a part of my life. You are a part of my soul. Krapya, try to understand me. My lord, I will also go with you. But Sita, you... As a husband, as a wife, the same is the same. The luck you have is mine too. Yes, sir. If there is only one soul, there will be only one run. So brother, I will also go with you both. So did she ask him to banish them or...? She asked for her son to be made king and to banish Rama. Wow, that's... Promises made, promises kept, I guess. Wow, jeez. Come back to Kushalmangal. Who has such a great son in the world? Minister, for the sake of going to the forest with Rama, prepare the weapons, horses and weapons. As you wish, my lord. Father, the nature has prepared itself for me. So what do I need, the whole of Ardambad and Thardbad? Then, the one who will get India as the king of this country will be empty-handed and just a little soldier. Please bless your son. So much, so much happens. Fifteen minutes. My dear warriors, do you know how much I love you? Do you know how much I love you? If you love me, then love my brother Bharat too. He is worthy of your love and your kingdom. Please help him, I beg of you. Please help my sad father. My dear warriors, this is my prayer to you. That's a lot of 100%. What song is this? No results. Wow. I'm pretty sure it's Wada. Or her sister, I guess. Asha Bonesley. Do you say how long he was banished for or just banished? 15 years. She was specific on the number of 15 years? It was 15 or 14. All the wolves and thewars were free. They were called with their name, they were immediately called warriors. What happened here? Son Bharat, you've done a great job. Tell me, mom. Is that what happened for you, your father's request? Is that true? Yes, but we are very happy for him. What happiness? You hung the such a woman down by the tree. Tell me? She looks really good for being his mom. I am not sure if she is going to accept the throne. Don't forget that the great king of the country has promised us to take care of the kingdom. I will be in the palace for the next 14 years. That is why we have the right to follow the father's promise. I am not worried about you. But I have made a promise. I will never accept this kingdom for myself. It is yours. It is a blessing that I will not be able to come back to my kingdom. I will take care of the kingdom for the next 14 years. But I will not be able to return to the kingdom. Is that a blood river? Oh, okay. Oh, nice. I love that even in their anime, their songs. Why don't we get subs for this song? That's a pretty waterfall. Is this Sita? Why don't we get subs? Sub for everything else, including the other song. Oh, God. Good luck with that. It is happening. This is incredibly violent for an anime. Well, actually, I don't know. The anime is pretty violent. I mean, it depends which ones you watch. But I know a bunch of kids watching. Cutting off people's noses. Oh, I know that guy. Anga Anga. Molten gold. Flying chariot. The big head? I don't know. Yeah, I don't know. You guys let us know. I know what you're talking about, but... He's a demon, I believe. It's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. Kill it. Oh, okay. But he got his arrows, though, so... She's got squirrel and bunny and deer friends. Snow white. Don't do it. Don't do it. Ram will not be happy. Cut his legs off. That's a violent story. Don't mess with your intelligence, brother. You're right. You're right, Lakshman. From now on, whatever you say, my dear brother, I'll do the same now. Lakshman, is this Heran trying to make us think of Sita? I think he's showing us the direction Sita has taken. Let's go, brother. I tried a lot, but he took Sita. He took away my old bangles. Oh, Chataayu. You're not guilty. You let go of your life to save my dear wife. You're not, Lord. Sita, I'll get you. Chataayu, Chataayu. If any of you reaches this holy lady, I'll kill her. What did you do for me, Rajan? You're her guardian. No matter what she asks for, I'll give her right away. I wish you luck, Rajan. You're her guardian, but I'll give her everything she asks for. Don't just run away. So many things going on. The ground moves, and has eyes, and has a monster. Buzzards. The enemy's always leaving. So when is the call? Because of the curse, I became a demon. This curse could only be free. When a great warrior defeated me in the war, I could return to heaven in my true form. Thank you, Lord. But I can't give you anything in return. I can only give you this advice. Find Sugriva immediately. Sugriva? This is a lake. Lakshman, tell me what to do. Some people are showing me. Sugriva asks him. This is a good guy. Oh, there. Oh, there. Do we not need to know what he's saying? We are the sons of King Dashrath. Both of us have come here to search for my beloved Sita. He has taken away some evil powers. We don't know where they are. There is no doubt that today, I was lucky enough to meet Lord Ram. My name is Hanuman. And I am the king of Sugriva. Lakshman, we had to find Sugriva in two places. But suddenly, Sugriva's minister is welcoming us. Lakshman, this is a good sign for us. Oh, Lord, I am lucky enough to meet the sons of King Dashrath. His name is spread all over the world. One day, I heard a lot of pain in this place. Lord! A few days ago, there was a strong wind. There was a strong wind. And I heard a woman scream. Lord! She screamed. Save me, Lord! And then, a small bottle fell on the ground in the night. We kept it safely. Where is it? Did you see that? This is Sita's body. And Abhishek is also Sita's body. Oh, Sita! My Sita! Lord! You don't have time to be sad. You should do something immediately. I have tried to save Sita. She may be anywhere. I know how sad my husband is without his wife. My brother took my Sita and took my wife away. If I had my king and my army, I would have sent them all over the world to find Sita. Listen, Lord Dashrath. I have a small request. Why don't we both get rid of all our sorrows today? Yes, we will. One friend should be ready to sacrifice all his wealth and happiness for his other friend. From now on, it will be my duty to help you in every way. I will take care of it. I will take care of it too. Lord Ram has fulfilled his promise to Sugriya. He fought with Bali. Bali lost. Sugriya met her wife. Even today, like a wave of weapons, it is raining. It has been raining for many days. When the rain stopped and the sun rose again, it was raining from the water of Dureshya Mukbar. A dweeb appeared. Then Sugriya called her army. If you find my Sita, give it to Abhushan. He will believe that you are my Dut. Are monkeys? This ring belongs to our Raghukul. You gave it to me. To fulfill this promise, King Sugriya sent his men to all directions in search of Sita. These four monkeys? There can be water in the cave. Yes, I think we have found water there. They were going towards the south. They found Jatayu's brother. Jatayu was killed by Ravan. Where are we? Jatayu's elder brother. Are you rich? I am rich. You know my brother. How is my Jatayu? Is he all right? Jatayu went straight to heaven. This is very bad. My brother is dead. And I am alive. I am alive. Even after he was old, he fought a huge battle with Ravan, the evil demon. And while protecting Sita, the poor man died. What? Ravan was there. Ravan is his name. If he knew that the reason for my brother's death was a demon, then I wouldn't let him go. He flew away from here. He flew away from this source? Yes. Look, look there. You will see the waves of the ocean. Ravan and Sita will definitely meet you on that ship. If you want to go with the army, then you will need a lot of names. And now I am old. By the way, in my youth, I have studied for twenty-one times. Now there is only one wave here that can do this work. When you were very young, you understood the result of sleeping with the rising sun. And like crazy people, they flew there to take it away. You are very strong, but you didn't know how to use that power properly. The whole world was jealous of you. So your special power was tied by the waves. This is the time when I will give back the power that has come from the waves. You can get this ocean through your power. You can also get Sita Maya inside Lanka. Oh! This seems like a large story that they are giving us like the bullet points. Right. Like so much is happening. So fast. No deep dive. Here's what's happening. Yeah. That's unfortunate. He just ran into a sea monster. Oh! Bummer for the sea monster. Oh, dang! Yeah, it just seems like a bullet point. Right. Like that seems like a whole chapter of his battle with the sea monster. After all that. Yeah, it's like every single, every couple seconds something is happening. Clearly these are a bunch of stories that they've compiled into a two-hour movie. Oh, he can't get... He's like Ant-Man. But a monkey. It's a non-nand. Monkey man. Hey Ma, what was his name? What's the character's name? Uh... Haruman. Who? Who? Haruman? Haruman. Haruman. Sita Maya, where are you? These lizards are everywhere. You're awake. My day begins by looking at your face. But you're even more beautiful than me. Why are you torturing my love? Should I give you Ram's glass of water? Oh! So you've come to meet him? Leave him alone, my dear. Come on, let's go. There's been a few days left since the end of a year, lady. You've fallen for him. Who do you think you are? I want to see your husband. But there's no beauty in this world that we have. Don't make fun of me. Don't make fun of Sita. I'll answer your question. That sounds like the voice of Shahrukh Khan. That's Sonu Nigam. What song is this? Nope. Nothing. That sounds like Shahrukh Khan's voice, though. Not actual Shahrukh Khan, though. The guy who always sings it. I think it's Sonu Nigam. It was the 90s. That would make sense. I'm actually intrigued. The English version, did they sing the songs in English? Why didn't he just take it? Why? So I didn't catch that part. Higher. So I didn't catch that part. Higher. Higher. Fine. Set fire to his tail. What? Fire? Intermission in your anime. Like keep the intermission even in your anime. And that'll be the end of our Part 1 reaction. Once again, if you'd like to see the full-on cut versions, you can head over to Patreon. You can get the link in the description below or the pinned comment. And keep an eye out for Part 2.
