TV Edits of the Viewtiful Joe Anime: Episode 12

In this episode, Silvia is seemingly let go from Jadow and meets up with Joe once again, but it turns out to be a chameleon woman in disguise, who tricks Joe into giving her his V-watch.  This episode has panning shots of Sprocket in it, so you know what that means.

In this episode, Joe and Junior come across a town with no color that has been long since abandoned after the color was completely sucked out by a pair of Jadow villains, with only one lone painter voiced by Mona Marshall still there doing what she loves, color or no.

Not exactly a premise that would require a lot of censorship, but let's see.

 In this episode, the Jadow trio recreate Frankenstein and make a robot combining all of their traits to finally defeat Viewtiful Joe.  Then, well...
The words "epic fail" come to mind.

This episode is called "Roamin' Holiday" in English, which is very fitting because the setting obviously takes inspiration from the movie Roman Holiday.  There's princess on the run, it takes place in Rome and the Mouth of Truth is a featured landmark.  I don't think the mouth came to life and went on a rampage in that movie though.  As for the edits, I don't expect much.

In this episode, Joe and Junior are in a mountainous area of movieland and fight Fire Leo.  If you look closely in one shot you can see what appears to be the Do-Re-Mi scene from The Sound of Music happening so that's the movie they're in.

Going back to taking some characters from the game, this episode is one of 3 in the entire series where Fire Leo takes prominence and it does a good job of showing off that he's far above the others.  Less screen time means less failures, right?

Fire Leo's English voice is also one of the not-obvious ones in the English dub, where almost everyone used an alias or was uncredited for whatever reason.  People used to think it was Crispin Freeman, but no.  It was Jonathan Lipow, who is criminally underrated because his voice as Fire Leo is way better than The Big Man's usual deep voice baritone in the first game.  If you look at the guy's IMDB page, he's in a lot of high-profile projects, but usually as background voices.  He needs more roles like this one.
