Wow. That's an old and obscure anime.

It's spoiler[Killy (A) to Shingo (B) in GoShogun: The Time Étranger, a 1985 OAV. They and Remi (the injured woman in hospital), are former members of a six person mecha team that once saved earth. Remi was on the way to a reunion when she has a car accident.]


Yes, that's correct. I've had the quotation in mind for this game for a few months, I just never got the chance until now.

So then, that'll be another dance for you.

The curious can watch both version of the scene in question some three and a half minutes into the Otakon 2009 iteration of Dubs That Time Forgot, which is where where I first encountered it.

Justin Sevakis does a "Buried Treasure" wrap here.

Moving on, let's get a tad more contemporary than the last two quotes. From the sub:

A: Anyway, you’re scientists! Are you even allowed to do stuff like asking favours of gods?

B,C,D: We keep work… and pleasure separate!

That's good enough. They do have names, though: spoiler[Harris, Clark and Martin]. Your turn.

I didn't know spoiler[Eiko] was a god. Wink

She appears in bizarre visions, conquered the invading force from the sea... she's got what it takes.

I don't have one, so I'll go with an easy one that I'm sure has come up before.

A: Tell me, Mr. Santa, why don't you bring me presents?

B: Ah, that's because your family is poor.

spoiler[Hayate talking to Santa from the first season of Hayate the Combat Butler.]

Such a heart warming scene.

Pass.

I'll snatch this turn. From the dub:

I read about it in a book once. Journeys should be taken just so you can go home again. 'Cause if you don't come back, it's not a journey, you've simply moved away.

Maybe spoiler[Kino of Kino's Journey, from the episode about books, in the part of the episode where she's sick and confined to a bed in a hospital in some sort of desolate future setting, and the implication is that the entire show is just in her imagination.]

I'll take a totally wild guess:

Anime: spoiler[Magic Knight Rayearth]

Speaker: spoiler[Fuu Hououji]

Addressees: spoiler[Hikaru Shidou and Umi Ryuuzaki]

Situation: spoiler[If this occurs at all, it happened right at the beginning of their time on Cephiro.]

In the unlikely event that I'm right, I pass on giving a quote.

Based on the second hint, I'm going to guess it is:

Anime: spoiler[Tweeny Witches]

Speaker: spoiler[Arusu]

Adresseess: spoiler[Sheila and Eva]

I'm not quite sure on the context . . . do the rules allow you to look through the episodes once you think you know what show it is, or do you have to do this totally by memory? Also, hopefully I picked the right one speaking . . .

You can do anything short of googling the quote or pieces of the quote. Watching the suspected source episode is a common and unobjectionable method.
