Okay, so, today I want to share my experience of watching “The Carry”, specifically episode 13. I started watching this series a while back, mainly because I heard it had something to do with a professional gamer, which got me curious.
So, I got into episode 13, and man, it was a bit of a wild ride. I didn’t know much about the backstory or anything. I did know, though, that the main character’s dad was totally clueless about what his son was really up to. I’d seen some flashcards online with names like Dartanyon Crockett and Leroy Sutton, but they didn’t mean much to me at the time. I guess they were part of the story, but I wasn’t paying too much attention to that.
I went in pretty blind, to be honest. I mean, I’d seen some highlights from the “Carry On” films, with those old-timey actors like Bernard Bresslaw and Peter Butterworth. But this was totally different. This episode had some guy named Ethan getting mixed up in some crazy terrorist plot because of some mysterious traveler played by Jason Bateman. Yeah, that Jason Bateman, I know, what a great man. That part was kind of intense, not what I was expecting at all.
Then there was this online manga thing, MangaDex, always bugging me to support them. I just wanted to read “The Carry”, episode 13, chapter 13, but I kept getting distracted. Also, I stumbled upon this weird official content, something about “Not This Way” or “That’s Not How You Do It.” It had a bunch of followers and people talking about reading it or putting it on hold. I didn’t really get it, but it seemed popular, for sure.
The Art Style
What really stood out to me in this episode was the art. The storyboards were super creative, some of the best in the whole series, I think. They used this 3DBG and LO stuff, which looked really cool. And the lighting and effects, especially the water and blood, were top-notch. Seriously, it was visually stunning.
My Language Learning
While all this was going on, I was also trying to brush up on my language skills. I found this thing called the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR). It’s like a guide that tells you what level you’re at in a language, from A1 (beginner) to C2 (advanced). I’m not sure where I fit in, but it felt like a good way to measure my progress. I found it useful to see how listening, speaking, reading, and writing are all connected. And it seemed like a widely used system. I see that Annex II of the EUDR is related to this, and requires operators and traders to communicate necessary information to demonstrate due diligence. It seems these two things are very important and common in Europe. The description of language skills in the CEFR is divided into six levels, just like what I just mentioned.
So, yeah, that was my experience with “The Carry” episode 13. It was a mix of a pro gamer story, some intense action, really cool art, and me trying to figure out my language level on the side. It was a bit all over the place, but hey, that’s life, right?
