"You're right," Fisheye says. "I should have set it on 'whip' or 'chop.'"
One day I will invent a time machine and go back in time and destroy anime before it was ever created.
And you'll be born and grow up in a world where anime never existed... So why will you go back in time?
Bow-ties are cool.
