    If he were to Jack any Harder, he'll have a Ceaseless Discharge. Y'all should have seen that one coming. This one is on you
  • @cloudnine3573
    "The problem with anime-" "I don't think we have the time, actually." "Okay. One of the problems with anime;" Nice.
  • @WarHero56
    Kojima did it again in Death Stranding with "Die Hardman"
  • @charlesmoss1985
    "And literally nothing else," Mike says, visibly struggling not to explode with laughter.
  • @RuptimusPrime
    "Jack Hard, which is absolutely a name and not an instruction" Dammit Mike, I was enjoying that drink and now it's all over my keyboard
  • @MSte21
    Mike's face when talking about Jack Hard...priceless. How many times did he break when filming that?
  • @lizbos2811
    Andy: “The problem with anime..” Mike: “we don’t have the time” Andy: “okay one of the problems of anime..” Literally one of the most accurate description of anime I’ve ever heard
  • @simonestain7241
    Absolutely love how genuinely amused Mike is at "Jack Hard"
  • @kylewhite9383
    Kojima: “Can I get away with calling this character after my favourite movie?” Die Hardman is born
  • @Rodrigo-ei4ht
    Bursted out laughing when I read "Jack Hard" on the title screen. Was Andy's "probably jacking it" ad libbed? Mike seem like he was trying his best to keep it together at that point
  • @superwhatevergamin9634
    "Jack Hard, who is a character- not an instruction." Holy shit, this commentary... I can't contain the laughter.
  • @JinFreeks
    "The problem with anime ...." - (From the Background) " I don't think we have the time actually " - "OK, one of the problems with anime ...." Allright, you got me good guys (and gals). That one had me laugthing for a solid minute. Well done.
  • @Astfgl
    The name Sol Badguy is also a reference to Mr. Bad Guy, the debut solo album from Freddie Mercury. So the character is a double reference to Queen’s frontman. The Japanese sure do love their Queen references (see also: the Ogre Battle series).
  • @efu2046
    "The problem with animeー" "I think we don't have the time, actually." pauses "okay, one of the problem of anime" LMAO
  • @owtkast023
    I should be ashamed at my ceaseless giggling at "Jack Hard." I'm not.
  • @FaultBat
    "I don't think we have the time" actually got me to laugh audibly at work, which I haven't done in years. Well played!
  • @CaitlinRC
    Phoenix Wright is a gold mine for these - my personal favourite is Ini Miney and her sister, Mini Miney. And potentially their brother, Mo Miney.
  • @ricardoparente5824
    "Hot Coldman"... That is going to be Shouto's Hero Name in My Hero Academia, right?
