Synopsis[]
We're joined by actor and comedian Zach Reino (Off Book, The Calendar Album) to review Naruto-inspired marble sodas and to discuss our favorite music tracks from across the JRPG genre.
Marble Sodas[]
Naruto Ramune sodas
Naruto is a Japanese manga comic and anime series. They have a line of Ramune sodas, which have a marble in the top of their bottle. Each flavor has an associated Naruto character.
The Doughboys seem to have only tried two of the flavors: the lychee and the melon.
They rate these on a scale of 0-5 sharingan.
| guest / host | lychee | melon |
|---|---|---|
| Nick Wiger | 3 | 2 |
| Mike Mitchell | 3 | 3.25 |
| Zach Reino | 3 | 2 |
R U Talkin' JRPG's to Me?[]
The Doughboys next discuss Japanese role-playing games and they also choose and play some of their favorite music from JRPGs.
Nick picked Nobuo Uematsu's "Fisherman's Horizon" and "The Man With The Machine Gun" from Final Fantasy VIII, then "Terra's Theme" from Final Fantasy VI, "Time Circuits" from Chrono Trigger and "Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs" from Frasier.
Zach introduced an orchestral version of a fight theme from Final Fantasy VII, and two tracks from Chrono Trigger - he didn't mention the title of the first, and "Frog's Theme."
Yusong joined in to play "People Of The Far North" and "Someday The Dream Will End" from Final Fantasy X, and "Musique pour la tristesse de Xion" from Kingdom Hearts Field & Battle.
Mitch's one pick: "Saria's Song" from The Legend of Zelda. He considers it the sound of heaven.
