"Checking in? What the hell is all that?" | |
I would've guessed that when, I dunno, the house has been abandoned for thirty years? | |
Akiko replies like she's giving a witty comeback instead of stating the obvious. | |
Taguchi mutters something that isn't subtitled, which might lead some viewers to believe he's calling Akiko something's dirty. But he's just saying "Hatsudenki ka?", or"Generator?" | |
Along the way, Taguchi come upon the Memorial Tower. It appears to be in some woods, while it's on a small island in the middle of a lake in the game. | |
Taguchi stops to take a gander at it. | |
At the top of the tower is a rock shaped like a skull. Taguchi takes the time to examine it, but obviously not really care. | |
A little more trecking through the woods uncovers the generator shack. | |
Well, it's locked, and since we've already established that Taguchi isn't above breaking things to gain access, what does he do? | |
TIIIIIMMMMM-BEEEERRRRR! | |
I don't understand why he couldn't have just gotten some other rock rather than kick over some cryptic obviously man-made tower with a skull-shaped rock at the top. | |
Resourceful chap. Dumb, but resourceful. | |
The electric generator. An obstacle in the game, a reason to make Taguchi kick over the Memorial Tower in the movie. | |
Let there be light! | |
Yes, the lights are on! I get the idea! | |
I liked that game. But I could never get the Writer's Cramp, because the pencil would always roll into one of the corners of the slot, beneath the metal part. | |
Couldn't we just burn it? | |
"Like, if it's completely collapsed into a heap and we find we were dusting off a blank wall for a day." | |
No, making sure places are tidy is your specialty. | |
Boy, this green water just adds to the beauty and splendor of the fresco. | |
"Hey, how come we don't get any special outfits for wading in this muck?" | |
Missed a spot. | |
"Taguchi, I know it looks like people have been dumping in it for thirty years, but could you still please wait for the toilet?" | |
"You make terrible coffee, dad." | |
"Go poison Akiko instead." | |
"I actually like her." | |
Considering how old she probably is, I don't think she's exactly beating off men with a stick. | |
"Now, Asuka, I'd mind. She smells funny." | |
"And take up a hobby, like stamp collecting, or building birdhouses." | |
He's not even young now! | |
Exchange of giggles. | |
Or maybe he's laughing at the fact you think he's young. | |
Don't go there, Emi. | |
Take note of this, as she goes back on this in the next chapter. | |
Yeah, I don't think her mother would be trying to play matchmaker between you and anyone else. | |
"You got a Twix bar in your ear? I said you're so much like your mom!" | |
Eh, what? Recheck your English... oh wait... | |
HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO SAY "NO!" | |
"And not ever! I want to live long enough to get a boyfriend." | |
"Yeah, I'm really sorry about slipping in that green stuff and breaking my back. Do you think this makes me look like Professor X?" | |
"Who are you waving to?" | |
Asuka vacuums up a portion of the dust to reveal the words "Home Sweet Home", written in English. | |
"Come to the light! The liiiiiight!" or whatever that line was. | |
I think it's supposed to be shadows from light coming in the blinds, but it looks like somebody's filming from inside a closet. | |
"Hm, this should bring a pretty penny on eBay." | |
"Well, she suggested I give you some of my coffee, and when I said I actually cared for your safety, she ran off." | |
Huh, in the movie, it's Akiko rather than Kazuo who has the lighter. And all she really "burns" is the front of a cigarette. | |
Oh yeah, that's real fatherly dreams for their kid. | |
"Well, at least until she dies." | |
"And had she taken some of your coffee, she'd have to come out of her coma first." | |
Boy, are we Mr. Social or what? | |
...like? | |
Right after Kazuo says that, it shifts to Emi jumping around on a bed and throwing feathers around, implying that one of the things Kazuo's always wanted to do with his life was jump around on a bed and throw feathers around. | |
...and backroll himself into this uncomfortable position. | |
"Ooh! Buttons!" | |
I think this is the only time in either the game or the movie where you actually get an idea what Mamiya looked like before she was a murderous, psychopathic ghost. | |
"Wow! Who left this picture in here for thirty years?" | |
Picture dims. | |
"OH, SWEET MERCIFUL HEAVEN, THE PROJECTOR'S BROKEN!" | |
Going... | |
Going... | |
Gone! | |
Emi tries to fix it by blowing on it. |
