I'm only hate watching this but in this version they really made him extremely unlikeable.
In the old version he was somewhat badass while still trying not to kill but here?

Love the parallel with shota Vash speaking to cold sleep humans in the ship.

>>286238672
He's like this in Maximum too though. The only difference is that most of the time Vash had to fight to survive at all or to defend someone. But in situations like last ep or this ep where his life isn't in danger and everybody he cares about is safe he is always gonna go full martyr. This "version" as you call it is just the original character.

To be honest Vash sounded like faggot in this episode. Perhaps i'm thinking too politically, but his quote "we must remember Tesla and not allow this to happen again", but in no case taking revenge it's just so pathetic

Knives defends own position much better

But they are both insincere. Vash says we have to talk with people to save our sisters, but he's never tried to do that. He was more concerned about sexy women than about his sisters. Knives says people are killing our sisters, and then he kills 20 of his sisters himself to get stronger

Vash has spent is life finding the good in the worst people that Gunsmoke has to offer.
Legato being such an absolute cunty monster is completely beyond anything else. Even Knives has more empathy for others than Legato does.

But everyone he cares about wasn't safe, they were literally under siege and all of the plants onboard were at risk (and therefore everyone living there too)

Pacific is a way of doing things by peaceful means
Pacifist is a someone who wont engage in conflict and wants peace
Jesus acted peacefully most of the time but him throwing out merchants out of the temple was an act of just conflict
Also pushing legion of demons into a pig and making the demon pig kill itself by jumping of a cliff
Jesus preffered peaceful solutions but if cause was just he would engage in conflict

Knives is right here.
Humanity views the plants as tools and independents like Nai or Vash as novelties.
They'll never respect peaceful requests for better treatment of plants unless there's a threat of irresistible force.

Vash seems to believe that you can teach humans to respect Plants and not treat them as disposable or merely resources, but really he's just living in a dream world, imo.
I think the relationship between Plants and humans is just too toxic and one-sided for it to be fixed through understanding.

There's no way Telsa was unique. She was just the one they knew about.
>>
>>286240213
>Pacifist is a someone who wont engage in conflict
Weirdass definition. Pacifists engage in conflicts all the time. You just conflate engagement with the use of force. Protests and mlitantism are also forms of engagement. As is martyrdom.
Also throwing merchants out of a temple is not a murder attempt anon, be serious.
As for the pig it's not murder if the pig kills itself.

While in Maximum it was clear Knives was conversing with plants who were very much alive, in Stargaze it honestly feels like he's running a death cult and monologuing at a bunch of corpses all day.

He deserves to win.
Fuck humans. Its a plant's world.
>>
>>286243880
This episode does make it abundantly clear that Knives is willing to throw all the plants under the bus to get his revenge
>>
Has the dumb bimbo plant from Earth appeared yet? I was hoping to see Chronica soon but with each passing episode I fear they'll cut all of that out. They still have quite a lot of ideas to cover from Maximum
>>
>>286240755
Especially not as powerful as humanity has become. They've mastered interstellar travel and created the plants, sentient life forms, merely as terraforming tools. There is no way humanity with that level of technological mastery over the universe would be less arrogant than current humanity, and current humanity is plenty arrogant.
>>
>>286244099
Yeah, it makes it clear that for all his grandstanding he's just a megalomaniac satisfying his own desires.

>Ugly 3D rendered anime

>>
>>286244099
>>286244291
That's just wrong though. Knives' vision of the future doesn't start and end with his revenge. The death of his enemies is the condition to the creation of paradise for all plants, not something he does to feel better.
Now you could probably make the argument that's bullshit and he's really doing all this for himself because he's traumatized and scared and hateful and whatnot and that's probably a bit true but the fact remains Knives' people are very much alive and oppressed, hence why his fight is legitimate.
>>
>>286244593
The issue is that it isn't like Knives can make more Plants easily.
And he is absorbing them willingly in massive numbers.
You need people alive to have a paradise.

Yes he can. The supreme omega plant bussy of his brother is right here with him anon, waiting for his huge stamen.
Moreover, Tesla, Knives; and Vash were literally born from plants who woke up one day and decided to reproduce sexually.

>>286244863
As lewd as tortured Vash is, turning him into a breeding slave is not a solution to voring your entire race, Knives.

The little girl can read minds, and Wolfwood didn't betray any of them; he just works for who ever can give him food.

Vash does not have omega plant bussy. Knives was cattle prodding him to impregnate their sisters.

The people at Home have been making live that can survive the planet. There aren't enough options to have debates over.
>>
>>286247799
Wolfwood tried to kill two of their agents and helped in the defeat of several other.
>>
I don't agree with Vash's ideology concerning the plants. They are not obligated to live as mere batteries for another species and die as a result. That's sociopathic thinking.
>>
>>286249441
Yeah, but the plan was for him to fight their agents so that he could lead Vash to July. After that he's been bumming around city to city because they've been taking plants; and he eventually found himself back in Vash's company.
>>
>>286249490
Vash would sacrifice himself to save a single human, therefore he believes that other Plants should be willing to work for humans to save thousands of them. With the hope that at least he can convince humans to be nice to the Plants and not just abuse them totally.
It is honestly a pretty hard view to justify given that he's asking of others something that only he personally is confirmed to be willing to give.

>>286249612
Sure, but I'm referring to afterwards.
Where he helped Vash fight Livio, the Puppeteer, the Sax Man, and the Robot at the very least.
Hard to not just eviscerate him on sight.

Of course they're all super cocky because Daddy Knives is back so who cares about a worm like Wolfwood. But any reasonable person would have killed him for fighting against them.

Most plants can't survive outside of their giant test tubes anyway. Telsa was dissected to to try to make more like them, but then Knives crashed the ship. Both Home and the doctor found ways to make life that can survive without plants, but then Knives is trying kill them off anyway.

The ideological conflict between Vash and Knives is basically just Nightow's version of the conflict between Amuro and Char in CCA
>>
>>286238654
He used the words wrong. Pacifist is someone who can deal great violence but tends not to; pacific is a peaceful person.

They'll be fights for Leonof and Midvalley to show their change.
>>
>>286254813
That sounds way too based to happen.
>>
>>286254750
It's more the age old Rousseau vs Hobbes. Vash believes once everyone gets the chance to talk properly they'll put down their guns and work together. Knives thinks everyone is out for themselves and not doing the utmost to protect your own interests will only open you up to harm so that justifies him to do whatever he can out in the wild world to ensure the best for himself and his people. Both recognize the tragedy that happens to get to a better future but neither can accept the costs the other proposes. It's why these talks they have always ends up being so heartbreaking, neither wants to the other to suffer for their mistakes but neither can accept their views and they both take theirs to the extremes.
>>
>>286244593
That might be how the manga paints him, but this episode made just painted Knives as an emotional manchild
Had no real retort to Vash's cycle of violence and just yelled about "wanting to get even" and then started absorbing plants en masse while his underling started questioning how much he actually cares about the other plants
>>
>>286254301
It says tri-p not trip
>>
>>286256182
its a reversal of their clash in the first season where Vash had no real retort to Knives except "I'll just...run away, and come back later when they've forgotten about me :D"
>>
>>286256351
Why would he need a better retort though, he's right. That's the best he can hope for and he's fine with that. And it's heartbreaking.

Yeah, that is his issue.
He's identified the problem, but lacks the empathy to handle it without becoming megalomaniacal.
>>
>>286256182
Getting even is a reasonable reply to the cycle of violence question.
But Knives eating all his siblings to get more power is just showing that he's ultimately unable to care for others in a true way at this point. He instead sees himself as their dictator and is willing to 'expend' them, for his needs.
