But have you seen the Pipe Strip? I mean, actually SEEN it? I know you can say that photons have shot themselves out of a screen into your retinas giving you the visual impression of the strip. Anyone can do that. But have you SEEEEEEN it, in the metaphysical sense of "seen", in the way that one finally sees the forest for the trees, sees through the fog, through the looking glass, sees the light at the end of the tunnel? I want to believe you can see it. You have clearly demonstrated your ability to See things through your thorough, and, might I say, impressively vulnerable foray into the subliminal and sublime depths of Tenchi Muyō! Ryōōki. But in terms of simple, visceral power, of what can only be called magic, Tenchi Muyo is but a pale wisp of an almost-forgotten fever dream compared to the Pipe Strip. The Pipe Strip will carry you to new heights that will make you wonder at how you could have thought any piece of art could be compared to this. Tenchi Muyo is an impressive and deep work, yes, as you have amply demonstrated, both in your detailed analysis and your clearly restrained passion. But imagine that passion, unrestrained, then multiplied a thousand times, no-- a myriad. Imagine the bliss of ten thousand Tenchi Muyos raining down on you, surrounding you, nuzzling you like a litter of silken kittens, setting off hitherto unknown fireworks in your brain and throughout your body, brightening the sky of your soul with colors you didn't think you could see. That is the true glory of the Pipe Strip, my friend.

One take. One FREAKING take. Very impressive. I had no idea about either the anime you're talking about nor the video that was the inspiration for this, but was enthralled nonetheless. Just... wow.

What. A. Single. Take.

*long, measured sigh* I need one of those Eric Andre 'Let Me In' memes done. MS Paint the professor venison suit on him and paste Olly's face on it. Top of meme says, 'Prof Venison outside Nao Toyama's residence'. Text: "Tell me about the panties!" "Tell me about the pantiiiiieess!" xP

This is brilliant. Well done!

Oh god, my chest hurts from laughing

You really captivated me and I got exactly what you were doing - playing Jordy and taking us to enlightenment....at the final scene I got up and became a patreon, so excited for future videos!!

I took a (singular) class specifically in Jungian archetypes when I was 18, and this sounded like most of the other students' oral presentations. Replace "Tencho Muyo" with "Highlander" (and not the movies either).

I actually managed to keep it together...until the shirt reveal. 👏👏👏well done

Very good, I like the mangling of Jung particularly
