That bit made me laugh pretty hard, I laughed a lot in this episode.
-
Wait, a fox told him how a radio works, right? So thats what the fox says!

Edited by Horny Darkseid: 11/10/2013 2:48:19 AMI didn't think it was cute I thought that scene was stupid. Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe that 10,000 means infinite in chinese or is related to it so the title "he who knows ten thousand things" insinuates that he is omniscient. This was one of the weaker episodes of the series with the one with Wan being the best by far.
-
I think it shows how detaching himself entirely from the material world has made wan ignorant.
-
But he is to be omniscient. He knows all, even things that he does not care for.
-
Perhaps, when he was in the material world, when he hadn't locked himself away.
-
It still doesn't fit his nature. It was still a stupid scene.
-
That was the whole point of the joke. He claims he knows 10,000 things (not everything, 10,000 is the number cause that's the translation of his name in Mandarin). And he boasts about how he knows something as simple as a radio, yet he's getting schooled by a little girl on what a radio actually is cause his Knowledge Seeker is lazy.
-
But the Doge was cute...
-
The Knowledge Seekers are foxes, not dogs.
-
They're so closely related you're just being a pain if you have to say that.
-
"It's a dog." "No, it's a fox." That's worth knowing.
-
Go answer my serious questions! That didn't matter!
-
What does the fox say?
-
That reply should be to Gaara.
-
It was actually. Not sure why you got it.
