New Episode out soon. GET IN HERE
Soon
Lore time while we wait:>Chigahama Gurentai>A biker gang that Ryoko once belonged to.>They had formed an alliance with the Galaxy Spirits.>The gang disbanded after the death of their leader, Sumire Kawasaki, who also was Ryoko’s best friend and Ryoko set her sights on becoming a police officer.
Ryoko in her delinquent days with her bff
"Become an adult who can properly greet people like that, okay?"
Is this an anime? I randomly stumbled upon it like 4 years ago on youtube and thought it was just some western amazing digital circus type shit.
>Officer Asami>A male police officer character who was intended to be Ryoko's partner in the original draft. However he was not that important to the story progression, so Director Kameyama reluctantly cut him out.
Ryoko's initial concept
>>282183126It is now. What you saw then was the creator's college project.
>>282183152Fuck the police!
>>282183103Would>>282183137Wouldn't>>282183152Ehh probably would, but human Ryoko is better
>>282183120Ryoko must have been involved with the alliance and must have gotten to know Akane way back then, right?
https://youtu.be/89s0ZihQeS8?si=XbMp7sMmq-Nx6daMIt's up
lmao didn't expect Akane to be the one saying this
>MAKINA DIES IN MAGMA
>>282183924>next week
>>282183137The ever present problem of run times
>towards the end OTAM straight up says correct upbringing instead of correct behaviorI don't think her psycho behavior was actually an accident
>>282184022I really hope this stupid OTAM twist isn't going to be played straight. It just seems so trite.
>>282183924
>>282183924NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>282182898Pls not end at 11th episode and have 30 episodes more or second season because I really wanna finally see her or more world building
some of you guys are alrightdon't ride trains tomorrow
>>282182898>Next episode titlen-nani bros?
>>282184295She's the daughter of a big shot family and a cyborg. My bet is that we'll learn she has a backup "soul" somewhere
>>282183924>>282183948It’s okay, machines don’t have souls or feel any pain.
Kirby's fucking pissed
>>282184356>machines don’t have soulsgreat, neither do humans, so we have something in common
Think fast
>ChatGPT can you make my society more efficient>Say no more, human
>>282184410Actual humans do, not those red humans like Chiharu.
>>282184022>psycho behaviorHow is she wrong? A bit too extreme, maybe.
OUR HEROES...and Kanata
>>282184473>A bit too extreme, maybe.Yeah, salvageable targets, they said eariler the prisons are full, OTAM should be snackbaring them
>>282184418What’s up with those symbols on her left cheek? Is that supposed to be a kind of tattoo?
>>282184263I'd never get on public transport voluntarily.
>>282184501Why would an android need to stretch lol?
>>282184460>Actual humans doI think what you are refering to is "brain" or "blood", maybe even a "nervous system". In ancient times when people still shit on the streets they often used to call those things "soul"
>>282184501Odds of Kanata getting tased again next episode?
>>282184535it's a checkup to see if all the machine parts are working properly before engaging in combat. Something you usually do with guns and such as well
>>282184460>>282184473O.T.A.M. pls
>>282184263US public transportation needs OTAM.
>>282184541High.
>>282184537I left my soul on that crosswalk
I wonder, does Makina have any siblings? Her parents would need to if her family still needed someone to carry on their legacy since I doubt she still has her reproductive organs, though I guess it's possible her parents had her freeze her eggs or put her original body on ice before becoming a cyborg.
>>282184452You should look up what Grok said when someone asked it how it would establish world peace.
>>282184541The real question is how many seconds until he is.
>>282184515You mean her right cheek? Because it probably says ビデオ2 (Video 2) on it.In the original animation, it was ビデオ1.
>>282184418How can you live knowing Makina could never deep throat you?
>>282184418Wait a minute, the hair has no physics.
>>282184325Not just a family, currently THE family since the entire galaxy runs on Titan. Must be suffocating to not only be reminded of your family everywhere you look, but also have every inch of your body literally controlled and made it.I wonder if she was cyborg'd by choice. Or if she's not AI herself because a gigaconglomerate isn't made that fast and her dad may have been too old/cyberized to have real kids.
>>282183924Reminds me of the old DBZ episode previews, with titles like 'FREEZA DIES'
Sex with the little hebe girls
>>282183152Cute eye
>>282185103Stupid TV spoiler
>>282183924Makina does in the hour long finale
>>282184403She’s going to kick your butt!
>>282184535>>282184554Plus, it might be a vestigial behavior from their previous human body.
>>282183924ominous
>>282185024it's not real hair, bro
dreaming of electric sheepi like makina and chiharu's clothes the mostchiharu has a "ghost in the sugar shell" shirt.
>>282185485>chiharu has a "ghost in the sugar shell" shirt.Snail Shell.
>>282183924Is next episode really the last one? Seems a lot to get through in only 3 minutes. Maybe it will be an extended special?
>>282185598ah, you're right. as expected of a slug
so is ryoko going to blow the lid on the whole killing delinquents through community service thing or will she cover it up?makina's dad seems to be in on it.
>>282185804I think you're expecting too much out of a four-minute final episode.
>>282184541I don't think he will, he will be notably less useful in combat than the others but still win a fight, probably stays behind while the others ride on top of the train and one of the drones gets inside and he just barely prevails over it
>>282184720people who never had a crt from the 90s would understand
>>282185218She's top of the line
>>282184985That's why her head comes off
>>282185116>hebeThey're 23 years old, if somebody doesn't do something soon they will be Christmas Cakes
>>282185152God I hope, even just 20 minutes would be great
>>282185620I reckon it'll either be a much longer special, or it will open way for a second season
>>282186100I'll save them.
>>282182898deltarune lookin ahh cast
>>282185598>>282185632
>>282183924Kek, I was just coming here to make a KOUJI KABUTO DIES IN MAGMA joke.
>>282184403That's the closest thing to an angry face Chiharu can make? That's too adorable.
>>282184657Considering how rich Makina's family is, I wouldn't be surprised if her reproductive organs are still intact or if she has working artificial versions.
>>282187446WAR FACE
installing Doom in Makina!
>>282185996>he will be notably less useful in combat than the othersWell, I'm not expecting Chiharu to do any fighting so not counting her
Didn't the show start with Marina's "death"?
>>282188382who the fuck is Marina
Sooo, uh, did ryoko put them on the train after having repeatedly sent delinquent youths to their death on that train?
>>282188766duh, she's police
>>282188887if evil why hot shaped?
>>282188766judging from her call I'm thinking she wasn't aware it was the same train
There was another Animedia interview.>Makina initially had a face similar to Max's in MilkyHighway, it was changed after it was deemed too simple>Cyborgs use wigs, Makina started making her appearance flashier due to Chiharu's influence>Chiharu first met Makina because the Gyaru Squad's antics. Chiharu is bad at reading the room and was completely oblivious to Makina's reputation as both the rich kid and the unsociable kid and just kept talking to Makina and get closer to herPicrel is Kurt's and Max's head structures
I fell like installing a 2 person escape pod on an 8 car train is just asking for trouble, like including a single parachute on a commercial airliner. Perhaps that's how she got the previous occupants to kill each other.
>>282188766Maybe she has just been transferred to that station?
>>282189307Titan Industries only cares about saving the crew they've spent money training. Passengers waved any right to sue when they clicked on the "Agree to licensing agreement and purchase ticket".
>>282182898Thinking about it the subs that had Makina and OTAM share a voice actress did something fun. Since Makina's the heiress of a super mega corp it's appropriate that at least one robot sounds like her
>>282189307So glad they don't include parachutes on airliners.
>>282189020The call and also her actions during the questionings makes it pretty clear that her intention wasn't to get anyone killed
>>282184660Do androids have human rights?
>>282189307if you notice, it's in the driver's cabin, so basically the cabin crew can escape and the passengers are just fucked.
Is Makina a clunker?
>>282188959a mystery for the ages
>>282189692i'd clank her if you know what i mean
>>282189668Considering Makina is one, and she is he daughter of a bigwig, yeah.
Didn't the show start with Makina's "death"?
>>282189668>>282189712They were born human.>>282190005Yes indeed.
>>282188766it only happened one other time, and they killed each other(how did Otam even manage to do that?) so no reason to assume these youths would go through the same thing
>>282186715>>282187749I'd love for this to get a manga
>>282190526You mean like the cyborg bro's lives as mercs specifically?
>>282190526it is getting a manga adaption
>>282190526shonen ace plus next week.
>>282189712Makina is a cyborg, not an android
>>282190680>>282190820
>>282190820Since this comes out next week which is when the finale is, this is a sequel then right?
>>282188766Hey, someone needs to clean up the mess from the previous deaths.
>>282191377It should come out before the final episode so it would be an awkward time to start a sequel.
>>282182898I'll miss these characters when the show's over. I love the cast dynamic.
This angle kinda makes it look like OTAM is holding that thing between her cheeks.
Can we make an exception for Makina once the Butlerian Jihad kicks off?
Remember when that robot never shot at Makina? Damn...
>>282190160I was under the impressionist it happened multiple times
>>282191715At least there's the upcoming manga. It won't be the same as the show, but it's something.
They're doing another exhibit.Seems like there's a couple of new things but it's mostly the same
Kanata...
>>282189623>he's never flown business class
>>282191807Isn't that what she is doing?
>>282192828It's really funny how airlines convinced people that coach is just as safe as their real tiers.
>>282188766I kind of assumed that she was new to the position
>>282192666Ah it's an injection. I assumed it was like a USB.
>>282192974They even called it an injection candy, did they not?
>>282184295Did you forget this is all a flashback and we already saw Makina beheaded?
>>282192974USB is an injection. If the owner knows how to handle his stick, it's a full-blown penetration.
I might be a brainlet but I don't see the difference between the two uploads for the episodes(just checked out ep1)
>>282194026The thumbnail and some on-screen text.
>>282194026The language of the on-screen title and credits, and the video description in the metadata.That's it. They only make two separate versions because YouTube's algorithm is stupid.
>>282192666Ooh, caramel flavor
>>282193901
>>282195054It's strawberry flavor, the one Kurt had. 吸入キャラメル (inhalation caramel) is what the candy is called, but the specific flavor is printed on the capsule and wrapper, いちご.
>>282192666so what's the deal with cyborgs getting literal sugar highs? do enhanced humans also have that problem?
>>282183103Yuri confirmed?!
>>282195857Sugar is more addictive than drugs. Or something, I forgot.Maybe because they have less flesh parts, the amount of sugar in (what remains) of their blood gets very high. Like a cup of coffee for a human and for a hamster would hit very differently.
>>282192666So if this is just an injection of an actual substance, then that means that both Max and Kurt are cyborgs, as in modified humans?
>>282196709They've been called cyborgs this whole time...
>>282186655Yer a hero anon
>>282188306Ah right, he protects Chiharu from the one drone that gets in
>>282192686Heh
>>282196908I was thinking it could be a mistranslation and they meant android.
>>282182898>... To save the world
>>282197462>This summer
>>282192617>At least there's the upcoming manga.so just like every other show it was a manga ad
>>282192291>I was under the impressionist
>>282198006The manga is an ad for the show
>>282197578>In a world>where chaos reigns like cats and dogs
>Makina KurusuA bit close
>>282198696Didn't even realize until nowI just finished Grisaia last month too
>>282184473I mean you could literally just pay the two guys to the sides and they'd do anything you said. They're competent workers too. That seems the farthest from being a burden on society.Kanata and his boss are worthless, though, that I agree with.
>>282198696>>282199163Referencelet here, pls elaborate.
>>282192091Makina could've just walked up to the robot and shut it off?
>>282199970Yes but she didn't know that.
>>282199390That lucky little bastard is going to father a football team.
>>282199646There's a heroine in Grisaia called Irisu Makina who's family also runs a massive conglomerate, the characters are nothing alike though so it's probably a coincidence
>>282189127Makina is BALD
>>282202189>Don't save my workswow, that is whole other level of paranoia
>>282201419Makina is not a real girl
>>282202760SHE'S REAL TO M- oh you mean because she's a robot. Gotcha.
>this warning label on OTAMI wouldn't worry about it
>>282204655Working as intended.
>>282182898aots, wtf. WTF?! There's going to be another SEASON RIGHT? A spin off, AT LEAST A SPIN OFF!
>>282204798>There's going to be another SEASON RIGHT?
>>282197578Everybodys favorite criminals
>>282204798There's a manga, it may just be a retelling of the anime though, but maybe it will expand on things the anime didn't have time for
Before and after
>>282205843Of course a deranged misfit would become a cop.
>>282205873Cops are the biggest and best armed gang of them all, so it makes sense.
>>282206395>how dare they stop me from driving drunk risking the lifes of innocent people>How dare they search my car after that and find my unlicensed gun and illegal drugs! I should be allowed to be a criminal due to a legal loophole(that doesn't actually exist but my friend told me it does)>How dare they profile me for something 99% of people do that act like me(and I do too, but they don't know that!)sure, "they" are the gang
>>282205843better
>>282208501It's like you don't even love her
>every party of delinquents we send to clean this train die horrible deaths>Keep sending moreIt's just so convenient, saves so much paperwork
>>282210858ACAB!
Is the Jane here related to the Jane who is the cyborgbros' boss?There can't that many Janes, right?
>>282212732I doubt it. Jane's a human, and that advert shows it's another Titan product. The name's not that uncommon so it's probably just a coincidence.
>>282184593That will be racist.
>>282184403Imagine cuddling with Chiharu.
>>282205873>>street smart>>experienced in violent confrontations>>now willing to work for the systemPretty much a candidate who already has 1/3 job experience. Just have to train them in protocols, paperwork and salary work culture
>>282205843Her design is abosultely top-tier yuri coded
>>282183924>CANDLEJACK PUSHES MAKINA TO DIE IN MA
>>282205428IT MUST DO WHAT THE DIY MANGA ADAPTION COULDN'T!
>>282189127>Cyborgs use wigsDisappointed in their technology. They should have implants that perfectly imitates the properties of real hair with its smoothness and softness and oils (maybe not growing because that can be any unnecessary inconvenience) instead of dry, lifeless wigs. Makina at least should have that technology.
>>282201392Why does Kanata keep starting shit?
>>282212732I want to drink Jane's ale.
>>282217391At least with Kurt and Max, they're only cyborgs because they were in the military. That situation I could see them not getting access to fancy lifelike hair. Makina is also deliberately in older cyborg models
>>282210858Takes care of the prison overpopulation problem.
>>282223082The prisons are still overpopulated. It's the reason why they're even on the train.
I love the music in this animehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9y7LyfrbDDE
>>282223399What if we forced prisoners to build new prisons
>>282188754Probably meant Makita
>>282223399These are delinquents. They were probably going to prison eventually so this nips it in the bud.
>>282199163>>282199646I'm pretty sure the reference is Steins;Gate.
>>282224035They might not do a good job.
>>282210858She at least didn't seem to know that it was the murder train
Info about Makina's parents:>Kurusu Shun’ichiro>Makina’s father. 89 years old (in Earth years). Founder and CEO of Titan Industries. He has fully transferred his consciousness into the company’s computers. Backups of his personality sometimes branch off, creating rogue variants.
>Kurusu Maria>Makina’s mother. She is absolutely obsessed with beauty and is terrified of aging, she keeps her body immersed in a preservation fluid, maintaining the appearance of when she was 28. She holds discriminatory beliefs against enhanced humans.
>>282212732Is the person in the pic the same one on the Train
>>282228264She's gonna freak once she learns her daughter's gf is a slugger
>>282228865No
>>282232326
>>282232401Cute
>>282228251So full-consciouness transfer is possible. Guess that explains how Makina had a projector-head in middle school.Do her backup dads give Makina extra Christmases and Birthdays?>>282228264Rich people be fuckin' wild. This seems like a good motivation to think being a fleshbag is overrated at a young age.>>282232401Cute!
There is already way too much Kurt and Max yaoi fanart
>>282234959
>>282234959what can you do, fujos gonna fujo
>>282229914Why do they look so alike in that case
>>282183137Yuri protected successfully
>>282183103They cute
>>282183152Cute design, I like the skirt
There is so much extra written about the world this show exists in, there must be plans to make something else to take advantage of it.
>>282237965>there must be plans to make something else to take advantage of it.I sure hope so, I'm not ready to say goodbye to these characters
