fuck I forgot about that clip in my mind, shit's broke my soul

B Mowglli

shit gave me flashbacks to camping out with hippies in Sequoia National Park. Some of the roadies were just blitzed out of their mind from excessive psychedelic use. We had a couple kitchens going (communal society). I made some spicy peanut noodles one night & was serving it out. Everyone had a bowl but one dude straight up took the (still hot) food in his hand and went to town. He also always slept out in the open next to the fire (a few did that but mostly had sleeping bags)

Not you guys posting this while I’m in class 😭

I hate Itachi so much... I'm not sure he's died (in present time now) but I hope Dororo is gonna get his revenge! 😤 unless he's doing it for his people like like the "real" Itachi would do! 🤣

Dyastro

Aniki just means older brother.

Zarvick

I remember seeing this episode for the first time and just being speechless 😭

dimmywitty68

He says Aniki, meaning brother

Ian Miller

Yeah other people already saying "aniki" pretty much means big brother. It's just translated to his name because any natural-sounding english equivalent like "bro" is too modern for the setting.

Kingmakaii

Bro I kind of had a feeling he was a girl too but y’all kept saying he so I thought he was a boy 😭

Skebaba

Would it be, tho? Are you sure they didn't have "bro" equivalents 1-2k years back for gangster type fuckers?

Erica Collins

People already commented that "Aniki" means brother or older brother but it's so cute that Dororo sees hyakkimaru as a brother 😭 (or friend if it just translates to "bro") & the fact that Dororo was so worried about Hyakkimaru leaving him behind bc he probably sees him as family now & he doesn't want to loose anymore family 😭

"Aniki" is a nickname for an older brother. Simon calls Kamina that in Gurren Lagann, where they translate it as "bro" but i guess they felt "bro" wouldnt fit with the feudal Japan setting, so they just translated it as his name.

ATNAF

might be wrong but 100% sure it was actually roshi who said dororo was a girl. remembering due to the star wars edit on youtube. anywoo dororo is too cute! her masquerading as a boy reminds me of Arya in GOT "Safer to travel my lord".

Papa Souls

yall gotta remember this is a feudal/medieval era, they literally didn't have the privilege to worry about others. If a village was lucky there MIGHT be a shaman who MAYBE knows some actual medicine a village or two over in that direction. Getting a fever in those times could and was a literal death sentence in most places.

Devin B

Nah it was Sheera. She kept referring to Dororo as "she" when they first saw her until the show tricked them into thinking she was a he.

Settsu

Aniki means brother lol! Its like calling someone you know someone older than you but dont wanna call their name

Beef Gristle Mill

Almost all little boys voices in anime are done by women, or at least all the ones I've heard over the years have been, so even if dororo was a boy there's a high chance his va would've been a woman anyway.

nate

so when is classroom of the elite coming???

Miles

I Wonder if they’re ever going to react to the new jujutsu kaisen 0 movie

slipHAZARD

lol I think it's safe to assume they are 100% going to watch it when it's released.

Donovan Kagy

When class room of the elite getting uploaded

Chimpman

Guys, the poll was this week. Why would the new shit be coming immediately when the shows they're replacing aren't finished yet or are finishing this week? Have a small amount of common sense.

Mari

Damn ok TREVOR

Ghost_Dog97

Y'all are so annoying with asking for other anime to get uploaded. Enjoy the uploaded episode please

Chance Lee

It's the reason why they pay people to watch anime lol they have no social skills

Aniki means "older brother" but overtime the language evolved. Now-a-days, depending on who you ask, Aniki is an informal ( but affectionate ) way of referring to an older male figure as your brother, which would in turn be translated/localized for us Americans as "bro." In anime, little boys and delinquents refer to someone they idolize as aniki and you almost never really hear it outside of that because it's seen as an immature way of speaking so it's only expected to be used by those character-types.

Mari

Ok bro I don’t even know wtf your talking about anymore and I don’t think you do either, your just saying shit now 😂

The GoDKing 27

Wow, lupa San went from making a joke to the moms death in 2 seconds

Steven H.

Damn wtf this whole time i thought Dororo was a boy 😂 got my ass hoodwinked

Son Gokhan

Was that a jojo reference

Son Gokhan

Well dude to the whole arcane incident people have realised spaming the shows gets results

Isaac

It's not "modern" per say. It's more of the context of how aniki is used in media. Aniki is an immature ( but affectionate ) way of referring to a male you idolize as your brother which would be localized/translated for American English speakers as "bro." Translations are never 100% exact/literal so it's best not to think too hard on how it makes sense. What matters is that the message is conveyed as clear as it can be for us to understand the intent of the words being used and Dororo calling him "bro" makes sense given she's a little kid. But it is weird the subs wanna just put his name there. It looks sloppy when you know what Dororo is actually saying.

Bart the Beard

About voice acting, 99% of the time female VA does the voice for boys, so having a female VA does not necessarily mean the character is a girl most of the time. The rest 1% is having an actual boy VA, which is extremely rare.

Arc

Aniki means "big bro".

Alex Omega

I was waiting for THIS episode and your reaction to Dororo being a girl lol.

Sun

Aniki is a formal way of saying Big Brother.

cofaux

japanese don't usually say names unless they're serious/mad or are in foreign areas (re:zero, mushoku) because it just sounds too rude and direct/formal. aniki sounds more casual and polite in most scenarios of the show

botanbutton

"Aniki" is not the formal way to say 'big brother'. It's used by yakuza, tough guys, and the like, lol. "Onii-san" or "Onii-sama" is much more formal. EDIT: used jisho to be sure I ain't a dummy, and I'm half right? half wrong? it can be formal but it depends. 'Onii-san' or 'Onii-sama' are still more formal.

Eff3ct

Aniki or 兄貴 is a honorable way of saying older brother or superior

Tabbs

Aniki translates to “big black nigga balls”

Rofl Lol

It's because she was raised a boy because it was safer, especially in the state of turmoil they were in. It doesn't have anything to do with some gender narrative.

rickie woodson

ani is japanese for older brother. thought you anime heads would have picked up a few words by now. yall watch waaaaaaaaaay more anime then i ever will and i used to live in japan lol. i learned it from the movie brother with omar epps and takeshi kitano. good film. i assume the ki at the end is to make it more intimate? like ane is older sister but dororo called the singing flower lady anechan instead of just ane. but they do this all the time in translations cause english doesnt have honorifics. in asian languages we drop proper names for honorifics. like in squid game they would say hyung, oppa, eunnie or noona (honorifics for sister and brother which have masculine and feminine versions) but they would put in the translation the character's name instead of "older brother".

rickie woodson

why especially japan? the east is not as backwards as the west when it comes to gender.............wakashus, Hijras, kathoeys, and galas have existed for THOUSANDS of years before the west was even a thing. #stepoutofyourbubble

darnay mayberry

i think because you used to live in japan is why you know more homie lol. I assume you actually had to learn the language more than us uncultured people just reading subtitles

Sonny

LMFAO, I went to translate for them but then I see this comment. I hope they see this.

関口信玄

Have you guys heard of the upcoming video game, Trek to Yomi? It looks absolutely beautiful. It's essentially an old samurai movie, but as a modern day side-scroller.

1994lyfe

This has become one of my favorite shows thanks guys reacting y’all are dope 🔥 maybe you guys should try “Sengoku Basara: Samurai Kings” when you get the chance it’s epic

Bosastar

Lol dude name is Itachi

Godrick

he's saying "brother" in Japanese but the subtitles put his name instead
