Speaking of Schwarzenegger, the very last thing seen in Conan the Barbarian is an older Conan, now king of Aquilonia, sitting on his throne with a similar pose.The German dub made it doubly funny by giving the ripped dude a broad Austrian accent that's clearly meant to evoke Arnold Schwarzenegger in his early days. Turns out he's not very bright after all, and is more interested with impressing women than doing any actual thinking. The Thinker statue himself appears in Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian.His pet monkey imitated him while he does it.
One episode of the Time Bokan series Time Patrol tai Otasukeman has Tomamot asking the Terrible Trio to go back to Rodin's time and force him to include a dog statue together with the Thinker statue, as part of his plan to rewrite history.Taking note of the pose, Smith and his other shogi colleagues correctly deduce that Rei's "engagement" to Hina is pretty much only in his head at that point. In March Comes in Like a Lion, Rei takes this pose while watching over Hina and Momo at a swimming pool.Tanaka, who was passing by, immediately lampshades this. In Tanaka-kun is Always Listless, Sora does the Thinker pose on a park bench after confessing his love to Rino and got rejected.It comes in useful when robbers attack and don't see him sitting still. His artistic abilities being what they are, it's quickly decided he's going to pose as a statue instead when they see him adopt the pose by accident. Those Who Hunt Elves: When the main characters open an art museum for a contest, Junpei decides he's going to sculpt.
The fish did not seem very fresh and had a dryness that contributed to its blandness that the soy sauce could not even help. Overall the sushi and ramen were both very mediocre and a bit disappointing considering the high rating. There was nothing wrong with the food, but there was also nothing fantastic about it either. I tried the Tokyo ramen and the Haru bento, both lunch specials.
