So I finished reading Shimeji Simulation what the fuck?
>>268841160
>>268841160Yes
>>268841160What are you confused about? It's all pretty straightforward.
>>268841160tbf you need to have a deep understanding of Christian lore to understand the ShimSim ending.
Only love between cute girls can bring forth an island of order from a sea of chaos.
>>268841343that was my interpretation as well
>>268841160It's a Shimeji full of Simulation out there.
>>268841236Why is she so smug?
>>268841485
Dang even Earlier Tkmiz had the flounder dare I say kino?
>>268841720The fish is omnipresent.
>simulation universe is completely fragmented with everyone living in their own worldTruly a metaphor for current times.
>>268842951inb4 his next work is about recombining those wayward fragments
>>268842951>get to be away from everyone except the person you're the closest toSounds comfy.
i hope they make plushies
>>268843158Until you get separated and have to spend uncounted eons trying to find them again.
>>268843254I would really love actual figures of the characters
hope you anons are having a good summer so far
>>268843022This is my greatest hope and my biggest fear.Writing the thesis and the antithesis is always easier than coming up with a synthesis before it has happened IRL.
>>268845215I wonder if tkmiz has any ideas floating around. In years past he would post art of what we now know to be future characters, but I haven't seen any recurring OCs pop up in his art as of the past few years. Maybe I'm just blind.
Have you done your reps
>>268847283Have you gone for your run?
>>268841160Nothing out of the ordinary.
>>268841160what did you think?
>>268841160If you are introverted get an extroverted loser gf. If you are an extroverted loser get an introvert gf.
>>268849718if you are hungry, eat food
>>268841160>what the fuck?Yes.
This one goes out to all the fish
i feel like it would be a worthwhile exercise to try to make shijima-chan laugh, no matter how futile
>>268855495Sounds like something that a Majime would say.
>>268841485You would be to if you ascended
>>268855609maybe i am a majime
>>268855870one can only hope
>>268855870post egg or gtfo
>>268857207you sound kind of demanding so you can only have this cluck
>>268857273Which came first, the chicken or the Egg?
It's taking me a lot of effort to figure out if I actually LIKE this author. I mean, his stuff is very potent, you have to admit that, but... do I LIKE it? I dunno, man.
>>268858400
>>268858400What do you like?
This concludes your regularly scheduled thread simulation. Have a nice day.
>>268852208I really enjoyed the sound threads that were inspired by tkmiz. Reading along with them generally deepened the experience.
>>268841197Sleep tight, Sakanee
when will fish make a new mangodo we know
>>268870818Pre-publication on September 2025.
>/a/ now hates fishewhat the hell...
>>268871171the fag spammer is giving the rest of us sakana enthusiasts a bad name
Now these are some holes I would fill.
Did TKMIZ know all along that Sa-ka-na in Hebrew meant "danger"? Or is it just coincidence that fish was a symbol of death?
>>268861735We couldn't save her bros...
>>268872498
>>268872646But she is running her own tiny little town... and maybe oneechan is with her.
>>268872725I think she's all alone. Wish I could keep her company...
>>268841316who is tsukUmizu?
>>268873403Anon...
>>268855870you will never be a majime
>>268873455What the hell I could have sworn it's Tsukimizu.
>>268873693
>>268873693It's like the swimsuit but with a tsu. Probably some deep lore that I'm too dekinai to understand.
Do we have any news about a new project or anything?
i'm just happy that since shimsim ended tkmiz has posted more pictures on twitter, maybe we'll even get another stream soon
>>268875273Nothing.
Hasn't he done some streams recently.
>>268876638May 11th was the last one i know off, it's the one with the aurora
>>268863817I'm happy that someone else likes my sound posts.
I remember dropping it because it was nonsense and from this thread it seems like it really is nonsense. Shuumatsu had some actual discussion
>>268883189Good. Now leave.
>>268883189>misses all of the threads with discussion>shows up to a thread months after the series has ended>"why is there no discussion, guys?"fuck off
It does feel as though the ending was somewhat abrupt, though I still enjoyed it.
>tfw a manga you've been following and were involved in the community around endsEven out of the manga I was following at the time, Shimeji Simulation felt special.
>>268888612The fishe will return in full when tkmiz's next manga debuts, rest assured.
>>268883189Honestly I agree that shimeji threads have been faggier than Shuumatsu. But these post ending nothing threads are extra lame.
>>268888918I disagree, but with respect to your thoughts: why not just stop bumping the thread?
>>268889041What would that accomplish?
>>268889090Well, the thread stays on the board for longer when you post in it. You've indicated your disdain for the thread, and so I assumed that you might have an interest in a) not interacting with it and b) it not being present in the catalogue. In essence, I'm just wondering why you would continue to engage with something that you seem to dislike.
>>268889435You know, you can just call me a retard and save up the time to write that condescending shit.I'm neither that petty, nor do I not know how tkmiz threads work. I'll decide what I like and do with myself alright?
>>268889630I was just answering your question.
>>268889694
>started reading it along with /a/ when it started >took a break a few chapters short of the end >still haven't finished itNow I'll have to reread the whole thing since I've forgotten it all...
>>268894534At around ten pages a chapter, it's not too grueling an undertaking. It's a shame you missed the storytime threads.
>>268894687Yeah it'll be a decently quick read, I just struggle with following currently releasing stuff and was feeling burnt out but it's nice to know that the tkmiz community lives on, although I guess that's no surprise with the gap between SSR and ShimSim where nothing was going on.
>>268894757Threads do occasionally appear. This one was made at an unfortunate time, I think that most of /tkmiz/ only show up to threads made after the 20th of the month, if they show up at all. Feel free to share your thoughts if you decide to finish it soon.
>>268860596Not feeling a sense of existential dread.
>>268895583You have to get along with it, anon.
>>268895583what about existential bread
>>268896093Yeah I've started getting better the last week or so but very recently I had an existential crisis and was having panic attacks every few days. I became totally dysfunctional, I stopped doing classwork, I stopped leaving my room except to grab a quick snack (a granola bar, for example, doesn't require me to stand around cooking and letting my mind drift to things that make me anxious).My mind is fragile. Thinking about 'deep' stuff breaks it quickly. So I love this author's work, it's profound, it's beautiful, but I'm mentally ill and it makes me anxious.
>>268896198
>>268896164
>>268896375
>>268841463>tfw my art is the shittiest on the cover by far
>>268896860No need to be so down on yourself, anon. This is one of those situations where it really was the thought that counted.
>>268881493>>268875364>>268872725>>268852208It’s a shame how Gardener pretty much dissapoeared at some point of the story. I really liked her.
>>268897480Everyone disappeared.
>>268896860You're covering for all of us.
good night
>>268897480Compared to the other girls, she got off the worst. Yomikawa atleast had chapter 44, Mogawa and Sumida had their own conclusion, even mosasa dogs got some action during the festival, but gardener-chan just went out into the void and dissapeared from there
>>268900056i might be wrong but i'm pretty sure the chick with horns that gives shimeji the stick in chapter 48 is supposed to be the gardener, just older. but yeah, she probably deserved to get a dedicated chapter towards the end like the other characters
Gardner was never originally human. She was a anthropomorphic software.
Hail the Fish God
The fish god?
>>268899584Phos is tkmizpilled
Needs more Twins.
>>268897480She did say that she's not participating in fixing Sis's mistakes. She probably created another town to manage and wanted nothing to do with anything else anymore.>>268900257I don't think that she was, given how Shijima thought about how the stick she got from her was similar to Gardener's stick.
