Understanding English Date Counting

The video tutorial explains the different ways to count in Japanese and English, focusing on ordinal numbers used for dates. It introduces King TH, who controls most dates by adding 'th' to numbers, Queen EF, who governs the 20th and 30th with 'eth' or 'f', and the Baseball Boys, who handle the first, second, and third days of the month.
