I demand the foul creature responsible for this demented illusion reveal itself at once!
[Because he has no idea what's going on. Help. Please someone help. What is this? Why is that woman claiming to be his mother?]
For you see, while your powers of obfuscation are almost impressive, they mean nothing to a being such as myself!
[Translation: something weird is going on, and he noticed that. Which he already made clear with the previous sentence, so he's just sort of repeating himself. Because he needs to stress how weird this is and at the same time act like it's not.]
Therefore, I, Gundam Tanaka, demand you reveal yourself so that we may do battle on a scale that brings the very foundation of this world to its knees! Appear before me so that I may crush you as a demonstration to the astounding creature I have just received!
[In other words, he just got a Pokemon. And he has no idea what it is, but throwing an untrained animal into a chaotic situation is just asking for trouble.]
And do not even think of ignoring me. Otherwise, I will be forced to unseal power that would make the very heavens themselves tremble with fear!
[Demented laughter ensues, but he really hopes someone responds because he needs some information here.]
If you think that stealing my familiars has left me incapable of channeling such power, then think again! Such a foolish mistake has done nothing but ensure your own destruction!
[...because he would really like his hamsters back. This Pokemon is cute and all, but he needs those back. Seriously, where did they go?]

However, if my aid is required, then I shall entertain the notion of assisting.
[In other words, if he thinks he's translating what she said to his own nonsense and then to English right, then yeah, he'll help out if there's something that requires his assistance.]
Now then, tell me, what is this quest you speak of?
[video]
Date: 2014-10-10 02:52 am (UTC)From:You must strive to be the very best, like no one ever was!
[she has a phd in chuunibyou linguistics, at least...!]
[video] Amazing
Date: 2014-10-11 01:15 am (UTC)From:That is an admirable goal, indeed. One many strive for and few achieve. Such a quest is indeed worthy for someone such as I, Gundam Tanaka!
[video]
Date: 2014-10-12 07:36 pm (UTC)From:I mean, unless you've already done that! There are a lot of helpful quest guides around, it's kind of great.
[video]
Date: 2014-10-13 03:43 am (UTC)From:[He'll take a moment to consider this carefully.]
Very well then, as my quest guide, I implore you to dispense whatever advice you would give to anyone starting their journey. Not that I have need of it, but it may prove useful if anyone in this town suffers from confusion in need of dispelling.
[He totally needs some help here.]
[video]
Date: 2014-10-13 11:53 am (UTC)From:[...she... will probably give more but those are the basics]
[video]
Date: 2014-10-14 02:44 am (UTC)From:[Which he will not elaborate on.]
And am I correct in understanding that the duels between these creatures are closer to sport than a battle for life and death?
[He's basically just repeating what she said, but he wants to be sure.]
[video]
Date: 2014-10-15 11:26 pm (UTC)From:[...not sure if believing it or wanting to see more of that second grade syndrome, but...]
And yep, that's about it! I mean, things can get intense, but most battles are fun for everyone.
[video]
Date: 2014-10-16 03:49 am (UTC)From:[Yeah, he totally didn't just bs that right now. Nope. Totally legit mystery of the universe that only he is privy to.]
[video]
Date: 2014-10-18 10:57 pm (UTC)From:Thank you, Gundam Tanaka, for giving me this wakeup call!!
[video]
Date: 2014-10-19 11:54 pm (UTC)From:You're quite welcome, and you would do well not to neglect such important tasks!
[...yeah, okay. He thinks that should be the appropriate reply. This is weird and he's not used to being lost in the conversation.]
[video]
Date: 2014-10-20 11:59 am (UTC)From:I will not! I should... do that right now! Maybe!
--- actually, no, wait! Tell me, friend... how do you feel about justice!?
[video]
Date: 2014-10-20 11:07 pm (UTC)From:[He thinks for a moment before solemnly rendering his opinion.]
Justice is a concept meant to govern the mortal world.
[And wow, that does not explain anything at all.]
[video]
Date: 2014-11-03 01:45 am (UTC)From:[WELL, IT'S TRUE...]
And what do you think about maintaining peace and justice for the mortal world!
[video]
Date: 2014-11-03 10:01 pm (UTC)From:I believe that beings who devote themselves to such a goal often have noble intentions, but that forces unseen and the world itself may work to corrupt and thwart those intentions.
[In other words, he's sure people might have the right idea, but sometimes that stuff just doesn't work out the way it should.]
[video]
Date: 2014-11-13 12:51 am (UTC)From:Oh, yeah! But that's why you've got to keep going for the gold and punch those forces and the world with your fists of justice! After all, somebody's gotta make sure everything works out alright!
[video]
Date: 2014-11-13 02:28 am (UTC)From:[He's impressed, Cynthia.]
Perhaps the heavens will aid in you that respect, but if they do not, then you must forge your own path!
[In other words go for it. Punch the crap out of the world. He approves.]
[video]
Date: 2014-11-17 01:31 am (UTC)From:...I mean it'd be nice if they helped because they totally did that other time, but I can't expect that every time!
[video]
Date: 2014-11-17 05:53 am (UTC)From:[...or any sort of intervention sometimes, but let's not get into Gundam's lack of friends that aren't hamsters or people trapped on an island.]
