You watched Graham and Paul make funny comments during the opening of some strange strange game.MatParker116 said:
I'm not sure if I think 'Meruru' is any more ridiculous than 'Rorona' or 'Totori'.
They're all pretty ridiculous.
At least it's easier to pronounce than Ar Tonelico Qoga: Knell of Ar Ciel. Now, I'm not passing judgement on either series because I haven't played any of them and they could be excellent for all I know, but even for JRPGs they've got ridiculous names.
Also, fun fact, Ar Tonelico and Atelier are all made by the same developer. Fancy that.

I love the commentary!! reminds me of Mystery Science Theatre 3000! Keep up the wonderful heckling and infused sarcasm.
Wait!! Maybe they didn't tell us what Totori saw because it was sooo evil, she left it there so it couldn't destroy the world. She never told anyone what she saw so no one would seek it out. But the kingdom is attacked and Totori knows this evil could help. And maybe she will tell her apprentice Meruru about it. And Meruru will go off to find it to save her kingdom. But she must decide whether the cost of releasing the evil powers of alchemy are worth it to save her kingdom. Fingers crossed.
I hope they keep making these Atelier games if only so that you can keep making great Unskippable episodes.
So... the recap of the first two games utterly failed to make either story seem remotely interesting or relevant... I'm guessing we're going to see the pattern continue next week.
I'm strangely liking those games. The plot is terrible inexistant, but the game itself is kind of addictive. 
I strangely remember bits of the previous Unskippable game relating to this one! I guess that sillyness of the last game left a mark in my mind somewhere.
It would be easier to pronounce her as "Melooloo" than "Merooroo"
Unless your good at rolling your tongue. =P

My response to seeing a new Atelier game on the Unskippable page: "Aw hell yeah!"
The art style of the recap was actually kind of nice (that silhouette/shadow puppet style shows up a fair bit in anime, like in Revolutionary Girl Utena). The content, on the other hand, was...lacking. What was the point of recapping the second game without giving any of the plot resolution? (Other than getting people to buy it, I guess.)
Who's betting that Part 2 features a shy, clumsy girl in a short skirt having awkward conversations with people and messing something up?
