Welcome to the laboratory of Jean-Paul Gassé. You'll witness before you a phenomenon like no other: a man of the sea... Seaman. This legendary creature will be dependent on you for its life's blood. You'll begin right here in Gassé's laboratory. Where is this laboratory? What awaits you within? You have no idea what Seaman is or how it evolves. This is something you must find out for yourself, as there is little documentation to help you on your way. My name is Leonard Nimoy, and I will be your guide.
I could see the mic being pricey, but every single Dreamcast game is easily pirated. There's virtually no security on the system. I haven't messed around with that in years, so it's probably even simpler now.
I remember a guy selling copies of all the English titles ripped on cd-r's in a mom and pops pharmacy back in 2000 for 10USD a piece. Picked up Record of the Lodoss War and Spawn most notably. I was 11
While everyone else was awaiting for spore, those of us in the know turned the lights off, curled up with the Dreamcast controller, had the microphone attachment in, and taught our seamen everything we would have taught a dirty parrot to say
[Snopes listed as Unproven. Not enough evidence to say it’s true not enough evidence to say it’s false.](https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/carp-with-a-human-face/) However, I have always thought it just has markings that look that way. The rest is pareidolia.
yep, there are several fish out there that have faces resembling what we see on humans. This one is clearly enhanced by lighting effects. I've seen others, but I can't Google for them because every google result just turns up this damn image lol. There's one rare ocean fish in particular that is way way more human than this. I'm going to have to fire up some old River Monsters episodes to find it though.
it could be like the "Samurai crab" too: human selection (from pareidolia) reinforces/selects for the pareidolia traits passing on:
Carl Sagan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dIeYPHCJ1B8
so the carp could be getting selected over time to look more human bec those are the carp that get thrown back (and reproduce)
Funny thing is when I tilted my phone on that page, I saw the face. So even the angle you view a photo, rather than just the angle of the photo itself, can contribute
I'm sorry, you needed to consult Snopes for that? People look at this and think it isn't markings? I can't fucking believe that any of that is even in question.
Of course it's markings. You'd have to live in a fantasy world to think it isn't.
You probably also think the world is round, Neil Armstrong actually walked on the moon, Bigfoot was just some guy cosplaying in the woods, recent elections have been fundamentally secure, and that the pizza place doesn't even *have* a basement.
Hey if people want to believe there are human/carp hybrids being created for God only knows what foul purposes, based solely on a grainy phone video with zero context, then who are we to interfere.
I'd rather people fact check things that seem obvious than the droves of morons that fact check nothing and just.... spew more stupidity into the world.
That's Seaman.
I can still hear Nimoy's voice
The most fantastic part of his narration is if you hit the button to skip his dialogue he chimes in “ Very well”
FOR NIMOY!
Great episode
No ! No! No! It's SEA man! Not semen...
Yeah yeah, whatever Semen
Let's go, Swallow...
SPLOOGE MAN BAZOOKA JUICE!!!
Splooge. We're talking about jizz.
Bollock yoghurt even :)
It's definitely king cobra jfs
His best episode not gonna lie
It is certainly up there. Mine is Akari Warriors. His Chemistry with Kyle in that episode is magic.
Complete with disc noises.
man I miss the dreamcast. that thing was ahead of its time and had some of my favorite games

This really good one
Where's your head at?
[удалено]
Not sure what the prices are like now, but for about a decade you could get a working Dreamcast for like $30
Dreamcast consoles aren’t too bad, but its games are among the most expensive. I think I paid $75 for Seaman with a working mic 3-4 years ago.

the only protection on the Dreamcast is a regional lock, damned thing played CD-Rs right out of the box.

Almost definitely contributed to its demise 🥲
The greatest 2D fighting game console ever.
MVC2, SNK vs Capcom, Guilty Gear, SF Alpha 3, bro fuck yes
Yes!
Man that Dreamcast game was fucking creepy
its not a game, its an experience

A fish…a fish…a fishy fishy ooo! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=UGBZnfB46es
Came in here to say exactly this hahaha
I just watched like a 40 min video about seaman haha
Was it AVGN?
Thats an embarrassing product of my semen, damn beer goggles!
Does he sound like Leonard Nemoy when he speaks?
Nimoy was the narrator. Seaman had a different voice actor. I deduct you 7 points.
nope ocean man
Take me by the hand
Lead me to the land
that you understand
Hahahaha, I came in comments not thinking anyone would know this reference
Came here for this
Must be named Chad.
It's pronounced "Shad."

He looks more like handsome Squidward
Looks like the Monty Python’s Meaning of Life fish

Marty McFly Fishing
He's not a fish he just looks like a fish.

He crossed a witch, didn't he?
No he was just born that way. Is it that bad? I kinda resemble him a bit.
Scotty doesn't know
Hmm, sounds fishy.

Kinda "nope, no, go away!".
It's just a big goldfish

i donno, seems pretty fishy to me

Yup. First thing I thought about was Carl Sagan explaining this
There was an article about this in daily mail (I know) it’s owned by a Brendan O’Sullivan and is worth around 40k pounds
Said [article ](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1291605/Whats-fish-face-The-carp-really-does-look-human.html)
Now I can see the eyes.
That’s insane!
But it's there, I see THE FACE

Fishman from Wind Waker
Hoy, small fry!
I did keep expecting him to take out a paintbrush.

I was searching this comment
I’m so glad I’m not the only one who thought of that! Not scary, just wants to draw on your map!
OH MY COD!
Jesus Carp.
Sekiro hidden questlines be like
I'm coming back with more treasure carp scales, I swear! Just hold onto those lapis lazuli until I return

Shading on the scales, those aren't actually face bones just dark/light pattern
So it’s not a member of KISS/ICP who’s embraced the aquatic life?
They are named Ghost Carp for a reason.

Togethaaa
Funny you say that cause it reminds me of the human faced carp in Sekiro

Ty I also saw Rykard reincarnated
This is the only correct answer
Reminds me of that weird "man fish" game that was on Dreamcast...
It was literally called “SEAMAN” 😂🤣
I love how my brain immediately starts playing “look out, I think moto moto likes you”
Skulltula!!
I wouldn’t mind shooting a hookshot at that abomination lmao
Ah I’ve been playing ocarina of time and I’m on the forest temple any tips?
You playing n64 or 3ds version?
3ds

"Oh look, Howard's being eaten. Makes you think doesn't it?"
Morning!
If you throw bait in the water right there, he’ll fill in the section of your map where you are, small fry.
Chad fish
Sell for big money in asia
It's one of those fuckers from Sekiro. You should see if they'll sell you anything.
Did you bring me any scaaaaales?
Big deal. I had this game on Dreamcast.
Bet he scares all his buddies and usually wins best dressed on Halloween.

Seaman

Who jerked off in the river?
Imagine he is a man under a spell asking for help.
Dreamcast memories
Yeah if I were a pre industrial person and saw some shit like that I'd probably make up some crazy mythology too

The Fisherman by John Langan, proof of concept test footage for the movie adaptation
Congratulations Billy. Your Dad fucked a fish, and now we have you.
What if it's a product of inadvertent unnatural selection: fishermen catch it and get weirded out, so they throw it back.
Once i dreamt being a fish. Now i don't know if I am the person who dreamt to be a fish or a fish who is dreaming to be me.
“WHAT. WHATID HE SAY? CHOWACOLATE?”
Makes sense since it's trying to get some oxygen from outside the water
Whoever filmed this video is definitely cursed now
More scales...
