Let's talk about it
>>291742932When does the SMOOVE OFF start?
>>291742932posting the first D
>>291742932The ending is happy, but Open-Ended.Like we know Several characters live, Talia is getting De-Chromed, and others are still attacking Arasaka.Will we see them again in the Game, then? They did a lot to tie this Season into the games.
>>291743045They already announced a game update :https://x.com/CyberpunkGame/status/2112484169523876130 It'll probably be something small like the first season got.
>>291742932Weak was a cool character but the show would be better without himHe contributed next to nothing to the plot and wasted a lot of screentime that both D and Talia (especially Talia) could use
>>291743045>Talia is getting De-Chromedi still dont get this part, don't this basically means death sentence considering her chrome is what keeping her alive?
>>291746403They can clone her organs.
I have no mouth and I must kiss
>>291746514
>>291746403Capri cured whatever her disease was, that's why now she can De-Chrome
>>291743287Nice!Doesn't need much, people just will want to know what happened to them afterwards. Like how often Roman visits Talia in Physio
The story is so all over the place. Its just a slideshow of different moments with no connection to each other, no payoff, and no weight to anything.
>>291746732yeah basically it amplifies the whole "fucked up rushed pacing that comes from only having 10 episodes" of season 1 and crank it to 11 because the cast is larger and almost none of them dies
>>291746403was her sickness even natural? it felt like her dad was using her as his pet project and maybe he made her wither away so he could replace her shit
>>291742932not anime
>>291742932only on the second episode but I guess this is going to be the anime version of pic related
Just finished watchingI cant belive KING tanked everything and rode off into sunset with his daughter
>>291747254That's why he's the king baby,
>>291747254amazed he didn't have to put on his old chrome and go cyberpsycho to save her
>>291746514Roman tic.
>>291747364Some Max Tac "Reformed" Cyberpsycho probably mounted it all over their mantle
i keep thinking the first part of the ending is never gonna give you up and its hilarious. its not the same tone but the beats there.
i think the d forms a gang and the kyoko plotlines were a mistakecapri could have just been a mysterious ai chip we didn't need all the exposition about it from kyoko
>>291747445Its more like a gang formed around D while he was aimless because he didn't have the full Capri and was just doing shit with no end in sight
>>291747364that's why he's the KING
>>291747364dude is built different, legitimately. his newly-dead not-wife's ashes scatter in the wind and he immediately goes "welp. anyway, gotta go save my not-daughter"
>>291747445Kyoko didnt deserve a good death like thatShes the reason D's clan got wiped because he was the fleshsuit for the aiI agree about the gangshit but I think it was for padding and to have weak and fat nigga lady run out of extra time at kang tao facility
>>291746514:v
Stop wanting to S.A Roman.
>>291748022Never.
It's much weaker than the first season. Not bad, by any stretch, but I didn't connect with the characters as deeply, and wasn't interesting in the overall plot. I feel like Weak King was the biggest waste, desu. Still a decent watch. The first episode is the best.
>>291748022why'd they make him look like that thoughand the foot scene? trigger already pushed it with rebecca but this was crazy
Finished EP3. I can't edge anymore... I will run...
>>291748022Stop making him so erotic
>>291742932Overall watchable, but it feels like it had more slideshow presentation and overall less animation than the first season. Could have done with more Talia x Roman scenes. 7/10
>several mentions of David Martinez>that corpo woman from S1 getting friedToo fanservicey
tfw no moralfag fluffy tomboy gf
>>291747798>"welp. anyway, gotta go save my not-daughter"He's such a nothingburger character that people aren't even memeing him being a step-dad
>>291746952It wouldn't surprise me if most of the plagues/diseases in Cyberpunk's time, were just nano-viruses susceptible to hacking from an AI, which makes it possible for something like Capri to just "cure".
is there any indication that S2 happens during or after the events of the game?
>>291742932Caught the first episode? Or some sort of showing that introduced all the characters. I liked the insights.
>>291748690Nah most diseases are bioweapons and results of mixing red 40 with cyberfent and that spilling into fuel which then crashes and spills the mixture into water supply5000 dead because of corpo cover up,survivors had to get steel assholes to live
>>291742932>VOTE FOR BEST GIRL HERE>VOTE FOR BEST GIRL HERE>VOTE FOR BEST GIRL HEREhttps://strawpoll.com/w4nWW3Ra5nA
is S2 already out?didnt they just announce that shit
>>291748736Arasaka in decline due to V First saburo,then parade float infiltration and finally nomads in a tank\v and rogue infiltration\v with a big fucking gun\etcNot to mention that yorinobu was making shit decisions to weaken arasaka as ceo
>>291748769Roman mogs them all btw
>>291748736Are all the corpos East Asian or something? China won?
>>291748744Alternatively... the chip came with nanites that help with rewiring the hosts nervous system so an AI can adjust to uploading into the host better. Which ended up fixing her neuro-degenerative disease.
I want to have sex with personality constructs.
how do you even sex this?
>>291743287Isn't the anime set after the game? How is this going to work.
Did D died?
>>291748815Back in 80s everyone thought that japan would take over as the new global super power due to bubble economy and making excellent stuff be it cars or electronics like pcs\consoles etcBubble popped and it endedCyberpunk was written in 80sKang tao seems to be taking over from arasaka (in decline due to v and silverhand) I reckon cyberpunk orion will deal with kang tao vs arasaka war to some degree because kang tao is chinese and look what everyone is fear mongering about now (china)
>>291748856You put her into a doll and fuck that or you put your dick into a smart fan
Post show Roman and Talia is gonna be this.
>>291748863no see corpse = no die
>>291748863i think his consciousness was intermingled with capri's and they vacated his body. would be weird for just him to die
>>291748863He became a cyber coyote,hes running thru the desert eating scavs with 10th degree burns over his body and a 2032 vw golf for a left buttcheek
>>291748856She presses enough brain buttons and it just works.
>>291748856If there is a will there is a way, you either put her in a physical body to have sex or you become digital and have sex there
What's the initial verdict on best girl?
>david was 17>roman was 12my god the season 3 male love interest will be a fucking preschooler
>>291748951roman
>>291748951roman mogs the bitches in this season
>>291748951capri won
>>29174293299% of these threads are offtopic and as a matter of fact don't talk about it.
d turning into fucking joker was yikes kino
>>291748998>998ARGHH SO FUCKING CLOSE
>>291748951She has no mouth and she must smooch
>>291748951
Better than I expected, but felt kinda disjointed and lacked some early development for everyone. Roman and Talia were lovey-dovey after one interaction and D became an aifucker (based) after one episode. Capri best girl, but her powers are lore-breaking bullshit. Liked S1 more, but still a good watch.polish nigger mumbling in two episodes had me mute it.t. pole
>They state prior to airing that it's even more depressing>Generally a pretty positive ending for CyberpunkWhy did they lie?
>>291749028baaah
AI is good actually. Blackwall is corpo propaganda.
>>291748863no?capri knew something about satellite, they went to space
>>291748736Arasaka is mentioned to be in steep decline, so it's likely after the game. Adam Smasher is probably fucking dead.
>>291748332Cause he is a normal heterosexual kid in Night City.
This shot looks familiar...
>>291742932It's definitely not as impactful as S1, but still it was fun.
>>291749041>spoilermakes me want to renounce my citizenship not gonna lie
>>291749046Digital hands wrote this.,
keyAIDs strikes againfirst Maeda, now Talia
>>291749041i don't know what the fuck is wrong with cpdr and their love for polish nigger noises
>>291749046Frankly this is what I think the endgame of AI is going to be. A hazard, sure but like a tiger or a bear nearby a populated village sort of hazard. Not sort of a Voodoo god like some today think it will become.
Roman's first WILL be taken by Jessie and there's NOTHING Talia can do about it
I like Talia but to be honest her body is disgusting and unfuckable
WOULD
>>291749068The maelstrom influence is more apparent now that we see more of her chrome, but still not enough eyes.
I would've liked if we explored D and Capri's "relationship" more. A single deep conversation would have helped.
Dynapatricians... We won so fucking hard.
STUPID SEXY AI
Is this the best song in the soundtrack? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6hOlik58gg>>291749137>>291749120lol
Anyone remember the BD tuner girl from ep1? best minor character by farher >>>> shit > Yupi
>>291742932I just wish it was more grounded. The game and TTRPG make it feel like the world isn't fit for city wide fights like that. Also I somehow don't hate Talia that much. I probably would if she had more screentime though
>>291749100>>291749076Such an embarrassment to the whole world... Good thing it was such gibberish that even I could barely make out the words.
>>291749113>Talia to Romanliterally perfect>Jessie to Romansome hack BD slop dealer
How much cyberware do I need to fuck Capri?
>>291749170ED easily gets the highest scores from me.
>>291749113He's too good for a girl like her
>>291749041>>291749100ehh some of those soundtracks were niceothers are wellif you are a pole, you might remember that one reggae guy that was popular for a few years and since its an ameriburger setting, it fits
>>291749170>Is this the best song in the soundtrack? 100%. OP and ED are really unimpressive.
>>291748653Any callback at all is "too much fanservice" for you people. It's not like they didn't fit into the plot.
>>291746562>>291746514I liked their romance better than David and Lucy imo
trigun guy did great job on ost
>>291749207>>291749228Jessie has a mouth
I'm going to miss you guys when the threads for this die out after only a week thanks to binge release and a slightly lower impact than S1.
Worse than S1. Typical...
>>291749214yeah its greatmuch better than the S1 too imo
On a rewatch it's actually much better how is this possible.
>>291749252all of their scenes together were good but there really should've been more
>>291748896I was thinking just using an interactive BD but a doll works too
I'm going to impregnate Roman
did she augment herself to be a gremlin or is this a birth defect.
>>291749120She’s perfect.
I really liked how the ending credits added Yupi and Omi as the series progressed. Kinda disappointed that the final episode didn't have a special version.
>>291749284I demand more Talia-Roman dates
most irresponsible father award
>>291749113No NTR allowed.
>>291749293Don't know why someone would augment themselves to be shorter than a twelve year old boy when you can be an absolute freak like Maine or Talia
>>291749313His dad was very supportive and I really liked that.
>they dumped d, just like they dumped vi clapped
Hey, at least we got one of the best anime trailers ever out of this. Kind of like how Mission impossible fallout was kind of mid, but has one of the most kino trailers in movie history.
>>291748769Kyokobros...
D is funny.
>>291749313He’s a supportive single father.
>>291749160Arasaka wants to keep this away from you btw
>>291749293she would have won if not for the ugly manlet debuff making everyone's perception of her competence drop>>291749313>>291749324this is bad? wish I had a dad half as good as this guy
I'm late to the discussion but I have to get this off my chestI hate this fake digital mouth that Talia puts onshit looks fucking stupid and ruins her entire design
>>291749313probably the best dad in Night City.
I want Roman to save me from myself too
>>291749313I hope he's okay with me molesting his son
>Cyberpunk>not 1 punk song played in the entire series
d is polish confirmed
>>291749395Talia...
>>291749265Talia will have a mouth again when he visits!
>>291749270There's literally no movement at all for this compared to season 1. I'm actually surprised how little hype there is. I was going to watch this until I found out Talia was half black, oh well, nothing lost by missing out it seems.
>>291749313I think in night city kids are expected to mature fast, and Roman was already bringing in his own money selling film
>>291749313He was scared of D right? Only reason I could see him not doing anything about the terrorist raiding his beer fridge and sending his 12 year old son gore to edit
>>291749403didn't they played in game radio here?
I liked how the show wrote characters with agency and went past the evil/good split where it mattered.Kyoko's a fun character all things considered.
>>291749445He was supportive of his son's snuff movie editing hobby.
>>291749358They were really taking the piss having him look so similar to Sasuke with a pointless revenge quest
>>291749410KURWA >>291749436Broski /a/ is slow. This is just a normal ongoing season thread tier. Enjoy the comfy. /v/ probably has more active thread with twitter screencaps and jaks
>>291749403I remember there being one in in season 1 when Lucy stops those TT medics from stealing David's cyberware>>291749383It's pussy desu. You designed her without a mouth, keep it that way. Or at least make it a mask instead
>>291748863he digitized
I'm surprised Roman didn't end up being like Lou from Nightcrawler, thought they might have ended up doing that to hammer home how the culture of NC fucks up the kids too
>>291749270I really wish it was a weekly drop because I wanted to watch an original with /a/ since I was being petty with PSG 2 when it released and haven't watched it yet at all
I'm really enjoying it, fun cast and it makes me actually want to play the game. I felt that way about the first season too, but the game was still known to be shitty back then, but supposedly it's better now, like No Man's Sky.
>>291749483/v/'s thread is even slower.
>>291749383>>291749490to be fair she only really puts it on around Roman
>>291749383i'm fine with the girl that has every type of anime hair at once also having a goofy anime mouth
>>291749353She's funny but, ugly, and evil too.This gives her a score of -1. You should've seen this coming.
>>291749468I loved her, and wanted to see more of her being a gremlin.
>>291749440>Roman was already bringing in his own money selling filmhe should start selling his nudes
Yeah season 2's much better than 1.
>>291749493The week between episodes 4 and 5 would have been kino.
>Basically everyone livedI'm happy for that. I wish Roman and Talia had gotten more screen time together.
>>291749395Get back in the chair, Talia.
>>291749504it makes me want to play but I also feel somewhat disappointed. the game is still very limited in a lot of ways that can't be fixed through mods. we probably won't see CP2 until 2030 at the earliest, so shit like edgerunners is just a cock tease.
>>291742932I THINK TALIA AND ROMAN SHOULD HAVE SEX
I liked it, but I feel like there was too much going on, so we ended up not spending a lot of time with each character. This type of storytelling would work better with more episodes, but they didn't even do a full cour so it kind of feels empty at parts. Talia and Roman needed more scenes together. D and Capri needed more. King needed to interact with someone who wasn't Talia.1 had this fun team dynamic that 2 lacks since it's really 3 separate story lines.
Snake Nation sucks anyway, D
>>291749477Yeah and trailer made him look like a revenge murderhobo.
for me? it's molegirl.
>>291749596The 30 minutes runtime really didn't help.
>>291749602desu he is a revenge murderhobo
>>291749565same they really needed like a whole episode for themselves but what they had was still good
>>291749619
People should be pretty happy that it was at least a competent entry. It was much more likely to have just been a huge flop after how much everybody liked season 1.
i'm glad reddit didn't win
>>291748863he roams the cyber-prairie free, like the digital buffalo
>>291749483/v/'s thread is slow, has no j*ks, and has a very mixed reception
>>291749647Shota hunter!
>>291749624>The 30 minutes runtime really didn't help.If it was actually 30 mins of content per episode it would flesh them out a lot more, that would be like 15 episodes of classic runtime
>>291742932Pacing and writing is better than S1 imo but there's not enough time to flesh out their relationships with only 10 episodes, D and Capri's story could've been so much better
I really liked the visuals of this season, the last two episodes went full trigger but I somewhat expected that.>>291749596>1 had this fun team dynamic that 2 lacks since it's really 3 separate story lines.That's true, and it especially hurts since those 3 storylines intertwine one another, but end up remaining distinctly separate.
>>291749468It's definitely a more complicated show than S1. Even Kiril would've been very easy to write as a generic power-hungry evil fag, but he had a bit more nuance than that.
King is such a loser. He spent decades as an edgerunner and the only thing he cared about was his ex-GF from 15 years ago? Jesus Christ. What a simp.
hurry up with the Omi fan art
>>291749686green goat owes me savage paizuri
>>291748653The one piece of fanservice I wanted (seeing Adam Smasher) didn't happen. 0/10.
>>291749666>dedicated episode for talia and roman>dedicated episode for d and capriyeah, 12 episodes probably would've been the optimum for this season
>>291749680Biggest letdown. I really liked his design and expected him to be acool Vash the Stampede type dude, and then he was just pathetic.
>>291749678he was a delusional corporat
>>291749680I figured after having a cyberpsychosis attack it makes you obsessed with the anchor you chose to keep you sane
>>291749703He's dead dude...
>>291749680We have no clue how old Talia is.
Were the threads this slow in 2022?
So where is this plotline of Arasaka declining go? This season seems to set up Kang Tao taking their place. That's kind of boring.
>>291749536>>291749395So now we have to endure these obnoxious pedo faggots every single thread? Man, season 2 is pure cancer.
Don't fall for Trigger's propaganda, pedophilia is still a crime in 2077
>>291749647>pure sex>has like 30 seconds of screentimewhat a waste
>>291748653Why? David's shit just happened a few months ago or so for them and was a huge deal, a single dude going blow for blow with Adam Smasher before being annihilated literally in the middle of the cityIt'd make sense for everyone to know him
>>291749743>>291749647this hoe was in the poster, doesn't make sense.
>>291749536>>291749395So now we have the pleasure to enjoy these based pedo chads every single thread? Man, season 2 is pure gold.
>>291749728It's probably setup for Cyberpunk 2 (the game), which is in production
>>291749727no, the board was flooded with cyberpunk threads4chan in general is dead as fuck compared to then though
>>291749730reddit is down the hall to the left
I forgot it was out and the first thing I see from twitter faggots is that it's bad. They are all bored as hell and playing on they phones. Is it really that bad? or can zoomers not appreciate story?
Is season 2 taking place after game, or between S1 and the game?I don't think that V was ever mentioned.
Why does Netlfix put out a whole season at once anyway? Wouldn't it be better (and net them more money) to do one episode per week? Do people really forget what they begin to watch?
>>291749727The thread is fine tho? It's in the top 5 for ppm on /a/And also there's another thread up which is where most of the discussion is, and it's literally the top thread on /a/
>>291749778there's a lot of talking with nothing going on. Literally still frames.
>>291749743the whole show was a waste, and mid at beast desu
>>291749293She is very clearly a dwarf. It's just the anime artstyle making her look good. If she appeared in the game she'd be disgusting.
>>291749782After. Arasaka is not as powerful here as they used to be.
>You were perfect all alongMan, this was a good line and it would've hit extremely hard but it felt so unearned. Like, they spent a grand total of like 2 hours together. I wish this had been a 24 episode season. Talia was so, so underdeveloped as a character.
>>291749787They are fucking stupid and retarded.
>>291749686best girl, I can't believe D KEKED her like that>>2917497274chan is dead and dying, but the threads simply slowed downit doesn't help that, in their infinite wisdom, Netflix dumped all episodes at once>>291749728rather than Kang Tao taking their place, it seems like everyone is cutting Arasaka up and taking whatever they want now that Arasaka isn't top dog.You have projects being scrapped, specialists defecting, people getting massacred by a bunch of street trash rioters with no issue, etc.>>291749787because their managment is retarded and loves the idea of binge watching
>>291749778>Is it really that bad? or can zoomers not appreciate story?There was no loli they could vehemently complain about on xitter
>>291749776Kill yourself obnoxious pedo faggot
>>291749787netflix goycattle HAVE to bingewatch due to their attention span
>>291749802Didn't watch the ending sequence? He's there for all of her rehab before she leaves.
>>291749791>600 posts in 6 hoursThis is roughly what a new OP chapter spoilers thread gets
>>291749727no, because the show was actually good + bocchi crossovers
And then they banged.
>>291748500You wear shoes while using your PC?
everyone predicting Talia was some kid in way over her head were absolutely right
>>291749852I wear socks (cause it's cold)>>291749847they're having e-sex in a satellite
>>291740238man, Dream was peak
>>291749847Fellas, is it gay to lust over Capri knowing there's probably a bunch of men that make up part of her?
>>291749801>After. Arasaka is not as powerful here as they used to be.I thought Saburo coming to NC in his aircraft carrier was a power move to regain their strenght?
>>291749838She still has turbocancer, bwo. Not even the best Night City docs could heal her, you think some nomad shaman is gonna save her out in the desert?
>D>Davidbravo
>>291749313His father is kinda meh. I expected a twink guy
>>291749802This is a problem wuth all these Netflix shows with like 10 episodes. They cater to the MoDerN AuDiEncE with no attention span who spend the whole time on their phones, and then the pacing is all fucked and everything is meaningless because there's no time to do anything. Streaming killed movies, tv, and anime.
>>291749791At the same time 4 years ago we had double the posts
>>291749889Capri fixed her brain. Now all she needs to do is down grade and go through therapy until she gets better.
>>291749890Is it still pedophilia if they're both underaged?
>>291749889Capri either fixed her cancer completely, or at least downgraded it to not-turbocancerBefore she got braindamage she could have just gone off the chrome and been fine, it was only after the brain damage that she couldn't anymore, but they mention Capri fixed that
>>291749313>>291749363Where's Roman's mom?
>>291749876Why was Capri a girl? Is it just because her creator was one?
>>291749889Capri fixed her giga-AIDs. She just needs to get all the cyber-shit out of her system and replaced like V did in Tower
>>291749927dead and buried
How does a super-hacking AI fix brain damage? That's not something those implants can do.
>>291749925>>291749930Hail the CyberDAEMON
>>291749730yes
>>291749890I need to draw Talia doing the UOOOHH tomorrow
He lived.
>ai is le bad>singlehandedly turns a cyberpunk ending into hopecoreglowniggers, our response?
>>291749913This show is the opposite of the generic Netflix overexplained slop. If you turn your eyes away from the screen just one second you could miss an important plot point.
>>291749924Yeah, because Roman is prepubescent, and Talia is around 16-17.
>>291749944Maybe the Chip had Brain-Nanites ala V. And Nanites that boosted her Magnet powers
>>291749915Can't believe all those /a/nons are living fulfilling lives with families and little gakis running around, good for them.
>>291749944the same way Alt could have fixed V if Johnny didn't permanently alter V's body. Talia was lucky where V wasn't.
>>291749944it's an engram anon, that's how>but how does an engra-play the game
>>291749915>that SnK peakman, we will never had it so bad good again
>>291749944But John Wick did in the game...
>>291749963Capri was an Engram.
I find it really funny how people say S2 have weak characters compared to S1 when like most of the crew in S1 were just cool archetypes that were sent to the meat grinder
>>291749944How does a super-hacking AI make the little magnets in her arms attract entire cars and shit to turn her into a metal dinosaur? idk bro, future tech just does that
>>291749972>3DPD normalfag trashDisgusting.
>>291749944the Johnny Relic saved V from a bullet to the brain. Same principle.
>>291749972>Can't believe all those /a/nons are living fulfilling lives with families and little gakis running around, good for them.Haha, yeah...
>>291749778Its bad. this anime has character which whole motívation is to save their black ex-wifes daughter
I'm just on episode 3 but so far it feels more... generic? All the main characters are good people and they try not to kill, they even have parents that care. Doesn't seem very Cyberpunk. Also the insert songs are awful holy shit, even the OP.
>>291746514W-was it consensual?
>>291750006How did Capri use magnet powers even without Talia's implants? She did it when she first possessed D.
roman joy toy that is all
>>291750024>>>/v/

>>291749890She’s a pedophile for an amazing reason.
>>291749839>middle of the weak not even peak hours>open /a/>get spoiled >>291750028We need more generic shows.
>>291750041Magnetic Nanites
season 1 was misery porn.season 2 is love your daddy porn.
>>291748022Imagine if you kidnapped Roman and removed his limbs, replaced her pussy to a boipussy
>>291750028>All the main characters are good people and they try not to killWeak blows a guys head off in episode 1
>>291750028The OST is the one thing that's 100% worse than s1, that's for sure.I felt like the characters themselves had more potential to be interesting that s1, but it got kinda squandered. Not enough episodes. If they'd fixed those two things this would've been so, so good.
>>291750024And he's a pathetic jobber
>>291750024King is the weakest part of the show desu. He could have been removed and very little would change.
>>291750028D starts off as a moralfag but becomes an edgelord. Lolibaba gremlin starts off evil but is actually based. S2 is much more morally gray than S1.
>David gets slurped 24/7 >V not even mentioned when this takes place after 2077lollmfao even
>>291749957Not usually into feet but I'd suck those toes
>>291749972more like they changed the captcha and half the boards were pure bots
>>291749778it's better than season one i just watched S1 recently and thought it was okaynot bad, just okay tourists and twitterfags only like S1 because of all the memes where everyone diesS2 is just better written
>>291748863It's very ambiguos, the tittle of the episode "Then Everyone Went Home" and the fact that the others made it alive adds to the fact that maybe he didn't die
>>291750079V is now an FIA spook after Phantom Liberty. It was revealed to me in a dream
>>291750024season 2 was mid at best
>>291749963just do this crystal palace heist and we'll save you :)
I can barely find any new fanart, most of the stuff I find is before the season released.
>>291749744If that's the case why wouldn't V be mentioned at all Or rather, how is it even possible that V wouldn't get mentioned
>>291750079I mean depending on the ending V becomes such a boogieman that the corpos don't even say his name.
Imagine how tight Roman's hole is
>>291750085I'm not crazy, there is no way the current chatgpt couldn't get past the captcha right?
>>291749993she was created from engrams, that doesn't mean she is onea normal engram wouldn't be able to do all the shit she doesshe's more like alt if anything, minus turning into an emotionless bot
>>291750086S1 is remembered for its ending. S2's ending is weak. The lack of an Adam Smasher equivalent is easily felt.
>>291750067After going cyberpsycho to be fair
>>291750108it just came out today anoneveryone is binging the whole season if it were released weekly, artists would have more time to make fanart
>>291750110V's bullshit was behind closed doors, Arasaka can wipe that under the carpetDavid imploded in the city center under the open sky
Now I wish V found Capri instead of Keanu
>>291750131Do you think spamming here would be worth the tokens it would burn?
>>291750123V ends up as an engram, you would think that Arasaka is just gonna let V alone?
>>291750079They probably don't mention V because of the vast array of possible endings in the game.
>>291750108They killed most of the fanart the moment they decided to release the whole thing at once
>>291750148>Arasaka can cover up V storming their HQ and killing Adam Smasher but it can't cover up David getting to a roof and jobbingfuck off
>>291750147that's trueman I fucking hate netflix and their binge bullshit
>>291750135If they followed the same formula it would have flopped.
>>291750108We have to wait a few days for people to finish it, I had today off so I went to the gym early and got food just in time when it aired at 9 AM for me, I'll draw some art of it tomorrow though
>>291750164There could have been a snippet of some chooms talking about some batshit lunatic who assaulted Arasaka alone and lived to tell the tale.
>>291742932i'm halfway through and i hate this shit. i'm so fucking bored nigga. >uninspired>plot holes, mostly with character relationships>juggling between like 5 different perspectives all the time so you have to constantly job your memory of who you're looking at and what they were doing last. the plot is all over the place>insists upon itself in certain parts (no further clarification needed)>capri makes zero fucking sense. it just defies physics and does whatever is convenient for the plot because there needs to be hype moments and aura. they didn't even cop out with "it can do all this because it has blackwall powers i guess", it's described as a amalgamation of digital consciousnesses, so how the fuck can it do all this crazy shitplease tell me i missed something or wasn't paying attention to portions of the show. i know specifically i think i wasn't paying attention when sasuke and roman were robbing the place to get capri. i don't remember why they were doing that or what they were searching for.
>>291750131you severely underestimate how pricey AI is, even with the subsidies that they give out nowadays it's still expensive as fuck + not worth it.
>>291750156V isn't an (Arasaka) engram unless you go full retard and pick Hanako
Overall good animation, but plot feels like a copy of 1st season in the end with a lighter tone
>>291750148doesn't arasaka basically pull out of night city in all of the endings involving storming the hq or was that just the solo run one
>>291750170>Arasaka can cover up something that happens inside of their 4 walls where nobody can know what exactly happened in there>Arasaka can't cover up something thatis facing at least 999999 different windows and 347398 cameras and 2373 people walking around on street levelyes
>>291750156They will if I climb that tower by myself and then blow my brains out
>>291750164>vast array of possible endings in the game.Que?Don't Fear The Reaper is the canon ending.
>>291742932No cyberpunk ending should ever be happy or this sweet if its gonna be bittersweet. It ruins the entire point of cyberpunk for literally feelgood corposlop.
>>291750196speedwatcher kun... 2nd screen watcher kun...
>>291750028I feel like they literally build the season 2 script from chat gpt
>>291750170Phantom Liberty probably means V has been un-person'd
>>291750196And people said that gen alpha doesn't post here.
araska is mega jobber in s2, they can't do shit to stop d being joker
>>291750147They should release 2 episodes a week. IMO 1 hour of content a week is ideal.
>mouth breathing retards don't like S2>To be honest, you need to have a very high IQ to understand Cyberpunk Edgerunners Season 2™S2 bros wonned hard. Patrician taste anime confirmed.
>>291750131The tldr is that for a few years 4chan was spammed by a bunch of fags using various proxies, the first of which was provided by the 'ick on 'eck guy from /v/. There were later copycats who did similar things and weaponized their proxies to post pizza and other truly illegal shit. Most captcha changes over the past few years have been to try and combat this illegal spam by any means necessary, even at the cost of murdering site traffic it seems. Eventually 4chan's devs decided to pay for the enterprise version of the spur anti bot service, which costs 40 grand a year and seems to have stopped the proxies.tldr 2: it's all 'ecker's fault, blame that fat faggot
>>291750131I've worked QA freelance for AI companies and they are pretty fucking stupid. Even frontier models still fuck up the most basic stuff. I've watched them fail to send a single email after 550 steps.
>>291750153man, that would have improved cyberpunk x10000
>>291750135it's fine not having a smasher since he only parachuted into S1 at the last second to end the story. you see it coming if you've played the game or tabletop but it's an ass pull if you haven't.
>>291750203S01's beginning is a snoozefest so that's the first place you'd be wrong.
>>291749743She feels like a side character who gets a bigger role in a future game or new season
>>291750246it's literally just S1fags mad that the shod didn't play out like it did in their head
>>291748857i think this is between david and v, in the game it was 1 year after davids incident so i guess this is while v was in atlanta
WHY DID THEY HAVE TO KILL THE GORILLA WOMAN SO SOONWORST SHOW EVER
>>291750202Hanako picked me btw.
I NEED SHOTA RECOMMENDATIONS, BOTH MANGA AND ANIME
Was this shot really necessary?
>>291750222D was the main character and he fucking dies. King faces a fate worse than death (raising another man's child). What more did you want?
>>291750196these facts will hurt the feefees from the pedos who loved Season 2
>>291750282S2 is set after 2077. One of the big plotpoints in S2 is how Arasaka's basically become crippled by the shit V did in 90% of 2077's endings and is basically helpless in the face of D's rampage.
>>291750269Huh? Not that anon but S1's EP1 is like its most emotional one, do you not have a mother or something so you couldn't relate to it?
>>291750229main screen only. promise. might be due to the version i'm watching only has subs. i'm usually a dub watcher because it's easier for me to understand dialog, but i seem to understand other subbed anime perfectly fine.
>>291750246unironically it's just S1 fags angry there is no cool aura farming squad
>>291750282Nope. The new update in 2 days is going to include a new mission that’s a prequel to Season 2.
>>291750169Oh yeah, that's why theres no art of lucy or Rebecca. First season dropped all at once to, retard
AIEEEEEEE I CAN'T STOP MASTURBATING TO ROMAN
>Omi
>>291750295Yes? What are you gay?
>>291750170David fucking wrecked an entire city block when he pulled that shit. V was in and out
>>291750235I hope more people draw him having completely non-homosexual intercourse with Roman's tight butthole
>>291750295Yes, I requested that shot.
>>291750295w-why roman has a choker h-here....
>>291750153>cyberpunk 2>background quiz also quizzes you on which engram you get stuck with>you can get a capri-liteinsta buy on release
>>291750213>>291750148Even if the ending raid was covered up V was literally still a legend of Night City even before thatHe was literally going around soloing entire gangs and was known as someone who came back from the dead already He would be talked about WAY more than fucking David especially since he came after
>>291750304It was anti-capitalist propaganda.
>>291750303YORINOBU WON
>>291749890Pedophiles and Cyberpunk go together like wine and cheese. If next Cyberpunk Edgerunners FMC isn't pedophile, I'm gonna be mad!
>>291750062>That sequence where his car got thrown into the lamp post and he tried to stumble out and take out Kiril for TaliaIt's astonishing how much love her three parents were trying to shower her with, even if Kiril was just trying to use her to justify the skeletons in his own closet.
>>291750295Was this one?
>>291750298>D was the main character and he fucking diesNo body no death
>>291742932If I thought S1 was emotionally manipulative and a 7/10 at best will I enjoy this season more or less?
>>291750327He wears choker in every episode.
>>291750295He looks like an actress I'm remembering from the 90's with a similar haircut and an earring but I can't remember who.
>>291750246She has the same color scheme as my man
>>291750311D is pretty cool. Literally me MC. Proactive but not edgy.
>>291750320JESSIE QUIT MASTURBATING IN THEREIT REEKS LIKE FISH
>>291750298Thinking D was the main character is like thinking Kamina is the main character of TTGL
>>291750304It being emotional doesn't matter when you've JUST been introduced to the characters.
Just like the first it felt like its missing 2 episodes of character shit.Talia spoke with Roman for like 30 seconds before their boyfriend thing.And they had a single date before the ending.D spent less than a day with Capri.King existed.
>>291750298>he fucking dieshe went to the satellite with his ai gf
>>291750348>Pedophiles and Cyberpunk go together like wine and cheeseIt's a libertarian thing. Makes sense.
>>291750370>Proactive but not edgy.>not edgy
>>291750375If it isn't D then who is? Roman? He doesn't do shit.
Designing a character with a fully prosthetic mouth and having them display a holographic real mouth instead is the most cucked unassuming artistic choice I've ever seen.Thank god this bitch will never take off like Lucy and Rebecca did, not in a million years.
>>291750295Is this guy gay? Usually one pierced ear implies homosexuality.
>>291750294I like Kyomu-neechan wa Kamatte Hoshiiaka 虚無ねーちゃんはかまってほしい
>>291750295yes, pedo faggots are loving it itt
>>291750360Same.
>>291749963>Rapes you and send you to AI hell.Nothing personnel fleshies.
>>291750349Now im sad too uhuuuu distorting ;(
People in the cyberpunk universe sure like slotting random shit they find on the ground into their brain.meanwhile irl>don't you DARE put that USB drive you found in your computer
>>291750349Talia is so dumb she requires an ex-edgerunner and a literal 12 year old to act as her tard-wrangler too
>>291750379I agree. The show should have focused way more on Roman's and Talia's romance. I'm 100% sure the writers chickened out because he's underaged.
>>291750396Bullshit, she has a fully prosthetic mouth but only uses the hologram when she likes the other personit's cute and a cool way of showing how she feels about other people
>>291750349It would have been better if he was actually her dad and Kiril was lying
>>291750222If you wanna build the franchise you can't just fill it with downer endings over and over, or people are going to lose interest.
>>291750396Only spotted 2-3 Becca defendors in these threads. Your loli lost
>>291750419Hey, I have windows antivirus, I'm practically bulletproof.
>>291750005a character doesn't become less cool when they die
>>291750395You view the series through the lens of Roman, and he is the only one who actually intracts with all the main cast (D, Capri, Talia, King, Omi, Kyoko), while D only meets King once for 10 seconds and Talia twice for 10 seconds each. Kyoko for only 10 seconds too.
>>291750291You can't fit two gorilla women in one series. It's either her or Talia's mom
>>291750441No. The point of King is that he's a giant loser. He should have chromed up and died pointlessly at the end.
this was cool
S2 was okay, great even. The story was pretty gud and characters were likeable. It was better than like 99% of anime they churn out these days. But is it season 1 level? Definitely not. Still good though. Like how they subverted peoples expectations by making them all survive when everyone thought they would die. This gives me hope for better future in Cyberpunk universe. Until Orion comes out and everything goes to shit again
>>291750351shota rape (shoved full of chrome)
>>291750452help me I'm autistic but why did she latch onto Roman so quickly
I like Becca and Talia, no need to fight.
>>291750419random shit on the ground in cyberpunk will download billy idol into your brain or teach you forbidden turbocalculus which is at least not boring
>>291750452>>291750396>>291750433this character is a complete bastardization of what maelstrom actually is absolutely pussy shit
>>291750456Roman is the protagonist. D is the main character. They're different things.
>>291750441I spent the whole show waiting for him to just go full cyberpsycho again to try and save her.
>>291750470He captured the one thing she loved dearly, which was being able to move and experience the world.
>>291750479 the protagonist is Capri
>>291750470Bro she was a terminally ill kid and had no friends. She never even held hands with a boy before. No shit she would fall for the first boy that showed interest in her.
>>291750498Where is her penis?
>>291750441>Gave my word, be here to bring you back. It's not over.https://youtu.be/fCSTSvPB1dM?si=XPlTUdadgKgB9OMJ
>>291750478That's because she's not actually maelstrom dumbass.
>>291750498>ate without youtube
Any hopes for a season 3? I just want a netwatch noir like spin off
>>291750354I think you'll enjoy it more.
>>291750478Anon the show goes out of its way to tell you that she's a Maelstrom poser and not a true believer in their cult
>>291750393Yes. He's pretty normal.
>>291750478did you even watch the anime? or did you see her holographic mouth, instantly feel rage take over you and come here to show off how retarded you are?
>>291750478They made it clear Maelstrom doesn't actually like her and call her a poser bitch
>>291750478She’s not Maelstrom, she just hangs out with them.
>>291750530The game is getting a sequel, and despite the first one being kind of shit, it still sold gangbusters - so I don't see why not.
>>291750520I don't understand why he has a giant mechanical foreskin neck
>>291750478Retard retard!
>>291750452I will cut my balls off and catbox it on here if Talia appear in anything EVER after this season.Playing Lucy in GG Strive rn, ping me when your girl is in fortnite.
>Roman is duct-taped and carried away by Maelstrom while they call him soft and smoothHow many doujins?
>>291750530High, problably it won't have a happy ending like this one tho
>>291750548
>>291750478The others already explained why you're wrong so I'll just say this:retard
Talia wont be as popular as Lucy because ugly 3D women cant cosplay as her
Not bad for Kai Ikarashi's first work as director. Still needs to work on pacing and how to use sound + music. Season 1 definitely had more memorable songs and OST
>>291750485The whole point of his character is that he can only help those he loves by not going cyberpsycho. He's a successful recovering addict.
>>291750548Why did she remove her nipples and pussy? That's dumb.
>>291750597>anime>non gacha doujins in 2026Doujins are in the past broski. We're in ai erp now.
So now that the dust has settled can we agree that it's objectively better than s1 unless you're underage?
>>291750571>Thinks we're going to live to see the sequel get released.Silly anon, thats like 20 years away. Unironically, I loved playing the game and it still pains me that we will never get a game like this ever again.
>>291750609They could, but most won't want their face covered so they won't.
>>291750609I've already seen multiple cosplays though
always wondered why everyone in nc is always wearing jackets, i get all the hobo aesthetics because poverty but jackets?, always?, coats?, always?, fuck off
>>291750630>Eternal wait for Cyberpunk was only replaced by the eternal wait for CyberpunkThis truly is some sort of cyberpunk dystopian hell.
>>291750478
>>291750625t. meatbag
YJK King walked in on Talia making Roman a man.
>>291750597You know, did Talia actually know what they were going to do to him? Because if so, not apologizing is a dick move.
This show will not have nearly the cultural relevance of season 1Season 1 was only memorable due to tragedyslop
>>291750629s1 had a better conclusion and it wholly fits the whole night city has no happy endings.
ngl I marked out at her moment when the nu-metal song started playinghttps://youtu.be/K89Lw83Qvgw?si=F7-P2d2HO89Sp4fw
TALIA WILL NOT WIN THE ROMANBOWL; ROMAN WILL FORGET ABOUT HER AND START A NICE RELATIONSHIP WITH A GIRL OF HIS OWN AGE, AS IT SHOULD BE
>>291750396I think she only puts that holographic mouth on for Roman, no? Like literally every sequence she has it on it's so she can be more appealing to her little boyfriend and not intimidating like she wants to be for everybody else.
>>291750670I mean everyone here other than Roman is fucked.Talias got weeks to live if that and kings going to kill himself after she dies.
Just started watching but the OP is awful, wtf were they thinking??
>>291750664
>>291750669>Season 1 was only memorable due to tragedyslop>Not because of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KvMY1uzSC1E
>>291750443>>291750298Yeah thats exactly what they are doing with this hence this IP direction which goes entirely against the entire point of the cyberpunk. Not saying the entire cast should have become snuff film BD stars but in general it feels like they "won" out because their endings cost them too little. The lighter tone and even color tone at the open ending is optimistic versus the cost David and his team paid with Lucy running away with her tail between her legs and her reiterating the cost of everything when shes on the moon alone. Reminding the viewrs going against these corporations cost them pretty much everything they had. Same with most of the cyberpunk endings the nomad V is still dying in a few months.
>>291750618the polish rap music was abyssmalespecially since S1 had some good choices like Ugory - Zurawie
>>291750664Roman is already a man. He's the most mature member of the main cast besides King. He's going to make Talia a woman.
>>291750681this should have been the OP of the season
>>291750687she uses it once when escaping the hospital in episode 2 but otherwise yeah
>>291750689>The Cure 1015 Saturday Night is awfulBait or underage?
>>291750689Cure is cool. Get blasted frfr.
D in Roman.
>>291750670>it wholly fits the whole night city has no happy endings.Except this is bullshit and always has been bullshit. Look at that invincible Gary Stu motherfucker Morgan. I hate this stupid line being parroted. No offense to you, it's just a dumb hypocritical guideline that apparently you can break if you're in love with your OC enough. But no fun for anyone else, just Morgan!
>>291750670>le misery porn goodAs I said, you can only like s1 more if you're underage zoomer.
>>291750688Capri is implied to have healed Talia, somehow (using magic?).
I am gonna rewatch season 1, because fuck it this made me nostalgic
>>291750520>>291750681>?si in linkswhy do you not clean your links anon
>>291750650Jackets are the coolest and most customisable piece of clothingThey are easiest centerpiece to make an outfit aroundI have 15 jackets and only 2 are dedicated winter ones
>>291750597Just give me one good doujin of Roman getting spitroasted and I'll be happy
>>291750688Talia got her brain fixed by Capri, and D and Capri took off to the Blackwall. Everyone won.
S1 was ImaishiS2 was IkarashiS3 will be _______
mid as fuck
>>291750629S1's shock therapy may work once or twice, but I think S2 is going to be the one people will prefer to rewatch
Capri should have body jacked Talia on their date to fuck Roman.Probably would have mellowed both of them out
pin the thread
Why are Maelstrom such fucking losers, lmao.
>>291749961>Became a gundam, killed a bunch of corpo mooks, literally became one with AI gf and fucked off into spaceDude did everything wrong and got the best ending.
Prediction: S3 will focus on a guy called David who dies at the end.
>>291750742This is explained in 2077
>>291750698>Yeah thats exactly what they are doing with this hence this IP direction which goes entirely against the entire point of the cyberpunk.Again, that's always been bullshit. See Morgan Blackhand.>But he's supposed to be le exception because he's supposed to be cooler than (You)No, that's fucking dumb.
>>291747445The gang plotline would have been better if D put his David into Jupi.Seriously, why didnt they fuck? Where was the sex and titties we had in season 1?
>>291750689dw it'll grow on you
>>291750738these fags want nihilistic, reddit teir last jedi slop instead of hopekinoliteral tourists who thought S1 was good because everyone dies
>>291750693Why exactly was Season 1 so fucking popular? Fucking hell 92 million views
I bet Yoshinari draw lewds with Capri.
>>291750742>>291750761Im pretty sure shes fucked dude.Thats why shes riding off into the sunset.
>>291750399The right ear is gay
This one guy can't stop spamming "omg you only liked s1 because people die" like the NPC he is huh
So how was D suddenly able to zap people into ash?
Normalfags seem to hate it because it's not edgy, gritty and dramatic enough. Is that true?
Will Roman's father accept the relationship between Roman and Talia? He seems pretty open-minded, considering he doesn't mind that his son spends his time filming murders and torture.
What kind of FUCKING name is Capri, huh? Who the FUCK just goes and calls themselves Capri?
man therse is so much swearing in this (at least in polish)they don't fuck around

>>291750738People forget that Johnny is a faggot.
I just finished it. Started out pretty good but then devolved into nonsense like it was spinning its wheels, too many different directions and horrible pacing. New director apparently, is that the reason? Is this guy bad compared to the first director? I'm not familiar with Japanese talents but first season was so much better IMO.
>>291750818I accept your concession.
>>291750784Prediction: S3 will have guy named David who will die in the first episode as decoy protagonist
>S1 was only popular because muh miseryporn!!The revisionism is already starting I see, you know S2 is worse when people need to start shitting on S1 to deflect.
>>291750823She was really chromed up I guess
>>291750824Yes normalfags love misery porn more than anyone else
>>291750813She’s going to be fine.
>>291750222> It ruins the entire point of cyberpunk for literally feelgood corposlop.Someone clearly never read Hardwired or Islands of the NETJust because Gibson's novels always ended with bittersweet conclusions doesn't mean every pillar of the Cyberpunk genre was like thatFuck, Hardwired actually concludes with the orbital megacorps taking a fat L
>>291750827Capri is short for Project Capricorn.
>>291750742the nanites in the engram heal damage to the brain, it did the exact same for V.

>>291750845>too many different directions and horrible pacingI feel like the same can be applied to Season 1the biggest issue with Season 2 is that instead of 1 plotline it has 3 separate plotlines (D and Capri, Roman and Talia, King and Talia) that sometimes meet one another
>>291750838I can do all that without a foreskin neck.
>>291750883Do you?
>>291750840In fairness at least Johnny did get his shit slapped. Morgan, not even that. Survives everything, does what he wants, murderfucks every corpo in his way, zero consequences and is still alive in the current timeline fucking bitches while immortal and invincible. It's fucking lame especially while simultaneously hypocritically pushing the whole NO HAPPY ENDINGS lie.
>>291750878covid was in 2020 you dumbass.
>>291750827It's a reference to Battlestar Galactica.
>>291750856Notice how you're not making any actual arguments which tells me you don't have any. S2 > S1. Cry about it.
OH MY FUCKING GOD WHEN DID THEY ADD GIFS TO YOUTUBE COMMENTS? How do I block this shit
this was a sattelite laser, right?
>>291750885Nta but S1 had pacing issues for sure but the direction was clear from the start and never deviated, S2 has too many things going on.
>>291750810I want her to put her weight on me so I can tell her that she's light.
>>291750869for real, what would be the point of the punk in the genre title if you're basically just writing corpo propaganda by having anyone fighting them always guaranteed to lose lol
Did capri heal her or what the Doctor is saying is right? he was wrong before
Oh no, why am I liking D x Capri so much? It's literally human falling for AI. Way much better than some boring human. Oh, we're so doomed...
>>291750900You can really tell certain characters are the author's pets.
>>291750877He fucking nuked Arasaka and unlike everyone else involved he didn't even fucking die or get a setback, not even temporarily. He didn't need to become a fucking chip to survive. He never lost a fight. He's still running around like a cowboy in the modern timeline of the setting, with zero consequences.
>>291750818It’s genuinely frustrating when someone reduces edgerunners to “everyone dies, omg, redditslop” and completely misses what makes the story so masterfully written. The tragedy isn’t just that the characters die, it’s the way their dreams, relationships, and personal flaws intertwine with a system that was never going to let them win. Every major character contributes to David’s downfall, and every loss builds on the themes the story has been developing from the very beginning. The ending isn’t tragic simply because people die. It’s tragic because, by the time everything falls apart, you understand exactly how they got there and why things could have been different, yet never really were. Reducing all of that to “everyone dies” is missing the entire point of the story and is such a low iq take.
>>291750827Short for capricorn
>>291746403>>291746605>>291746952they literally spell out that capri only helped her temporarily and she's still terminal. roman starts crying when they're about to leave because there's a good chance it's the last time he'll see her. I swear to god you retards watched this on a second screen.
>>291750905covid zoomers lasted from 2019 to 2022
>>291750918Arasaka got fucked over after S1 and S2. They lost. What more do you want?
>>291750925Because they are fun together, while Tiala x Capri is just miserable and wrathful.
>>291750925Capri is cute. She's also just a bunch of humans, not an AI, so it's less pathetic than an AI that will just like you if you ask it to.
I can understand why some zoomers would prefer s1 since it was all hype moments and aura with no substance they like so much. It's how some people like JJK more than LoGH for example.
>>291750827Who the fuck names their kid Weak?
They sanitized the hell out of Night City ngl, even Maelstrom who are supposed to be demented were just normal dudes. If this is the direction they're going for the game sequel I'm no longer interested.
>>291750900Morgan is what mike pondsmith wants to beCool white chad instead of a black nerd
>>291750856>S2 gets announced>i hope everyone dies>i wonder who gets killed first>they're all getting killed by adam smasherliterally the only thing anyone talked about prior to its release
>>291750962Maybe people liked S1 because it actually had direction.
>>291750925>Oh, we're so doomed..."They" want to protect us...this is cursed timeline
>>291750966Who names their son Sue?
>>291750962They love S1 because you had a brown guy getting the hot white chick as his gf
>>291750856no, you preferring S1 to S2 is because of misery porn. anything more is you not liking that fact and lashing out
>>291750972To be fair the lack of Adam Smasher was deeply disappointing.
>>291750972D only lasted that long because Smasher didn't show up thoughbeit. Is he canonically dead because of V? I don't know. But he wasn't there.
>JP audio doesn't have to cyberpunk slangFuck I forgot the first season was like that tooDon't tell me I have to watch the fucking >dub
>>291750966Boomers>Ive named my son Raped Bitch so he toughens up and doesnt become one
i geuss d turns his hair into spikes to get acces to satelltes with capri
>>291750966Probably did it in exchange for a rich person giving them 100 bucks to do it as a joke.
>>291751003Talia is way cuter in the dub
>>291750970because normal dudes kidnap a child and try to perform illegal implant surgery on him with no anesthesia for fun, right?
>>291751003Did you expect "gonkubureinu" or something?
>>291750970You think child mutilation is normal?
>>291750972S1 was just a better story overall, just because it's tragic doesn't mean it's good or bad.
>>291751003the dub has mr krabs
>>291750907BRING ME BIRDREN
>>291750950nothing, i'm happy with the endings? i'm not sure how you read that out of my post
>>291750933Yes he personally wins and is the exception for the costs of a "happy" end, kinda, and maybe sets corps back for a moment but the corporations are still as strong or stronger than ever its inherent to the setting. My biggest issue with this season 2 is that they failed to make the cost of their ending heavy enough.
>>291742932Personally i felt like the first ep was the weakest
If I'm being reasonable, Capri owes me sex.
Seeing the yellow digital paint has hit me with a timewaster segment PTSD episode.
>>291750970Are all Rikafags this dumb?
Do you think Roman and Talia will keep in touch or is long distance communication impossible in Cyberpunk Universe, because of the internet crash? Post cards maybe
this retarded bitch decided to go to war against arisaka with a vending machine gun
>>291751062This is an actual game mechanic.
>>291751054People who want Cyberpunk corpos to fall are really stupid. What exactly would they be replaced with? Commie governments ala North Korea? It'd only make things worse.
>>291750913I'd think so. I think Capri's made of two parts - the engram, and the access codes for a supercomputer satellite in orbit. Hence why Capri was so useless in Talia without the shard.
>>291751093Woman moment
>>291751093Yupi is a nihilistic self destructive retard.
>>291751093She was just trying to do a challenge run
>>291751087They’ll meet again.
If I'm being reasonable, Roman owes me sex.
What would be the Season 2 equivalent of this episode?
>>291751093>sexiest character gets killed again
I haven't watched it yet but checked twitter and there's literally like 50/50 split between people saying it's better than s1 and people saying it's worse. Is it really that polarising? Though I've noticed that some people who didn't like it also had usual mental illness flags and shit in bio
>>291751137Episode 8
>>291751106how about a functioning society
Am I crazy for thinking that this anime sucked ass? No action like in s1 and characters were flat with 0 payoff or personality. The set up was bait and nothing actually happens. Only good one in this anime is Capri and she has only like 2 episodes.
>>291751106War and then nusa takes over night city and texas(Its militech in disguise,every president is ex militech since atleast 2020s)
>>291751054D died and talia is still terminally ill. I guess they could have killed weak too? What did you want out of it personally?
>>291751087Roman died to a tyger claws grunt 25 minutes after the end of the anime
>>291750764Kanno (which as of now is identical to Ikarashi)Following the pattern it would be Sho Oi's turn (S02E08 director), but he's way too inexperienced, this was only his second episode
>>291751106>It'd only make things worse.t. Network 54 (((expert)))
>>291751032yes
>>291748063>It's much weaker than the first season.Nope and I'll never understand why people hold it in high regard other than the surprise factor
>>291750995He's fucking dead what are they gonna do with a corpse?
>>291751003okay but you get to hear CYBEHPUNKAH
>>291751060You can't fuck engrams, D
>>291751147really?
>>291751142capri is alive though
>>291751097Yeah and it's SHIT.
>>291750995Bro is zeroed.
>>291751054>Yes he personally wins and is the exception for the costs of a "happy" endYes, that's what I'm saying bro. So why the constant decree that nobody should do that? Even fucking V, "nooo you don't get it he can't just survive okay?" That was such bullshit and fucked up all the endings. And like I said, Morgan.
>>291751181>v<
>>291751148And how would taking down the corpos achieve that?
Talia's gun is stupid and I don't like it.
>>291750900NO HAPPY ENDINGS is only for weak bitches that are tepidly strong and can't make it.If you are truly strong, it's the best trait.
>>291751119And Cyber Panty
>>291749596>1 had this fun team dynamic...which was for one episode and then than all started dropping like flies
>>291751106These chooms want the voodoo boys to take over.
>>291751137There isnt oneNothing can be as heavy as your own weakness and mistakes leading to death of your love while a deathsquad closes in and you gotta make sure your surrogate son escapes with his life Only thing that comes to mind is king seeing his dead unrequited love take a bullet for him and go with the wind
So is millitech the new topdog of the setting? Their goons seem to be the strongest now that Smasher isn't around.
>>291751106Agreed. Most only want the aesthetics of cyberpunk which are indeed super cool, but lose a lot when not paired with the messaging around unfettered corporations.
Why is she built like that
>>291751205shut up kyara, you're dead
>>291750900Has it been confirmed that Blackhand is alive? Rogue doesn't mention him (maybe once?) during the 2077 event.
>>291751237Nasty. Does this thing have much screentime?
WHERE THE FUCK IS MY SCHIZO DAUGHTERWIFEAAAAAAAAA
>>291751180>implying she can't make my brain go through the most intense sex scenario she can imagineyou lack imagination
>>291751237She's built like a Romulan.
>>291751093Yupi was honestly a shit character.
>>291751181 I honestly assume she was gonna be an AI that eats away at D over time, like how Songbird was used
>>291751260way too much screentime in fact
I hoped they'll show some new lore in S2 but it's so fucking barrenthey even went "lol no this blackwall-colored magic isn't blackwall actually"
This felt like a Studio Trigger anime.Not in a good way.
>>291751247In the books, yeah. He's a murderbatman vigilante taking down entire corpo security teams by himself. What a ghost! So scary! So badass!
>>291751241In a happy, bittersweet way!
>>291751233Militech is litteraly us goverment Their night city offices are the ones doing buisnessBut yeah its militech,dying and thrashing arasaka and kang tao
WHAT WAS THE FUCKING POINT?????
I liked her more than expected
>>291751287I mean that's what she was supposed to be, but she chose not to eat away at her hosts somehow
>>291751145not enough hedonism to identify with if I had to guess
>>291751237this is like the epitome of a woke character, I'm glad she died.
>>291749322Literally the first thing she does in the anime is run upright through a vent. Small size comes with perks.
>>291751026This, besides there being no cyber slang; Talia sub sounds too old for a teenager. Too mature.
>>291751304They make ais out of humans and they are far easier to controlThat shit is huge
You WILL abandon your flesh to spend the rest of eternity with your not!AI girlfriend in cyberspace!
>>291750925She's the only one who really understands D. Omi and to a lesser extent Roman keep telling him to get over himself and move on which he literally cannot do when he's haunted by bad dreams every night and bolts awake in a cold sweat. Yupi is a bloodthirsty anarchist retard who didn't even try to understand D, she just loved the power D had to hurt Arasaka. Capri puts his mind at ease and doesn't try to egg him further into revenge (as she says herself she doesn't really understand revenge) but doesn't talk him out of it ether which is exactly what he needs.
>>291749787This is what killed jojo for me. Imainge fucking up a big IP like that over 3 year span.
People who say S2 is better are hazbin hotel fags that jerk off to capris quirk chungus design. There I said it.S2 is mid as fuck. There is no character development nor did they grow in the slightest. Roman isn't even a real character, he doesn't have any motives unlike David from season 1. Was there even a reason given why he is filming everything? Would even go so far and say it would have been better if the story just focused on David 2 instead of Roman. From the start where his tribe got butchered till the end.
weak and arvid going after soulkiller was so lame>ok arvida needs to die>please make a story before lunch
>>291751237>>291751260>>291751298>WAHH KINGUUUUUU HELP ME SAVE MY POOR DAUGHTER I REFUSE TO HAVE A PROPER CONVERSATION WITH WAHHHHHHHHH>proceeds to lie several times
>>291750629Nah.Every character acts like a retarded psychopath for no good reason. Some character arcs (like D's) are revealed and concluded in the span of three minutes, but they keep doing retarded shit for no good reason.
>>291750918I blame Shadowrun post 3rd ed for this notion of "corps always win, you'll always eat shit", and relegating Pink Mowhawk as "not serious"Corps WILL fuck up your life regardless of your status and lifepath, hell, Talia was already being used by Kang Tao and her dad to test up the limits of cyberpsychosis, to put down your foot and push back even a little against their crap is a core tenant of this genre that often gets thrown by the wayside for reasons even I don't get>>291751233Right now it seems to be a toss-up between Militech, Kang-Tao and Zetatech, the latter took over a lot of the vaccumm left by 'Saka's downfall in NCI could see Euro-Business Machines and Petrochem making a bigger comeback in the 2080s
>>291749787Probably much more cheaper for them to do that.
>>291751399based yanineko poster
>>291751135Be patient, Talia. Finish your rehab so he doesn't literally kill you.
So can somebody tell me what the deal with Omi is? I thought she was D's sister since she laughed when Roman asked if they fucked. But it doesn't seem like it, and the flashbacks made it look like they did fuck. So why did she laugh? I just don't understand women, goddammit.
>>291751399Both s1 and yanishit are for retarded reddit millennial niggers though.
>>291751399cringe yanineko poster
>>291751148Sir Pacifica already exists you know.
>>291751399your post would have some worth if only you didn't attach a quirkchungus reddit anime pić to go with it
>>291751371it's a gimmick they pulled out exclusively for this animesee them forgeting everything about that in Cyberpunk 2
>>291751137absolutely nothingyou could try and say avida but the build-up just isn't thereepisode 6's ending was pure kinography
>>291751154D died but, although not really him, a version of him goes with his AI wife with full acceptance after getting one over the corporations, Talia is still terminally ill but then show a light color palette in what looked like a hopeful tone as she's taken away to her rich corpo parents which to me as a watcher as I take it that they all got sweeter on the bittersweet scale endings. They should have shown alt D a more merciless AI net world that feels strangely surreal and Talia should have shown a montage of either going back into chrome or an actual diagnosis in the same cold way the devil ending shows V getting "treatment".
my biggest issue with this is that night city doesnt seem to have people in it. occasionally you see a couple but its like the city is depopulated. same for the corpo response. i get arasakas supposed to be "weak" but where the fuck is any corpo or ncpd response. even if they got fucked up by Vs actions in 2077 you see them in force when they fuck up weak in ep1. but everyones gone for the rest of it. its an empty city.
>>291751408>manipulates him into helping her by claiming she's his daughterthey did a good job making her look like an irredeemable piece of shit if that was the goal
>>291751473I can't imagine anyone mourning Avida for any reason other than virtue signaling.
>>291749778But Twitter likes itIt's reddit thats more critical of it
>>291751453They're part of the same nomad clan. They act like families.
>>291751453she was laughing the pain off
>>291751233The power scales of the corpos and government are confusing.Arasaka was letting a WMD infiltrate its facilities and gut its employees in broad daylight for no reason.
>>291751495How do they repopulate if nobody can fuck anybody else? Do they capture normal men from the city to impregnate their green-haired women? Is it possible to volunteer?
>>291751475What?Rich corpo parents?..What?
>>291751475>taken away to her rich corpo parentswhat level of speedwatching is this?
>>291751535Arasaka is old and busted after the game, so at the time of S2.They most likely don't give a fuck about the city at this point and think of it as vestigial at best.
>>291751287ironically, what ate away at D was her absence, not her presence
>>291748769capri is too high
>>291750592She also uses the word koibito which implies they are physically close (they are not). Btw nobody in the show is fazed by this.
>>291751475Retard!!!!!
>>291751453They'd have end up together provided they spent more time with each other. A few more years of memories and they'd be thinking they were made for each other. And then the clan would clap and tease them mercilessly to have kids.
>>291751606There's not much competition
I WANNA TOUCH ROMAN'S PENIS.
>>291751607>Btw nobody in the show is fazed by this.they can tell she's bluffing, that's the point I think
>>291751535In the 2020s, SoCal was a "Free State" and the US Federal Government had next no none political power when it came to the rest of the union, innefectual goverments lead to big corps pushing them around like chumps with eddies and influenceIn the 2070s, Night City is now a City-State like in the days of Greece or pre-unification Italy, effectively ruling themselves without external mandates from the NUSA, but Corps are still far stronger in terms of guns, money and influence so they get to kick the NC City Hall like a wounded puppy, hence why every corp and crime syndicate on earth comes to NC to do business
>>291751287it was funny how D was the obsessed bf in their relationship and chased her down to jam back in his head and not to leave again
>>291751632Theb she lost him, first to a psycho BPD whore then to a magic tulpa waifu. That's rough, buddy.
>>291751607It's a dystopia. I don't think they care about age-gap relationships.
>>291751684He's just like me...
If Roman is fully organic (nice) how did Capri hack him?
>>291751544>>291751592>>291751622I haven't slept okay, I got into my head that she comes from a family like Hanakos. Just remove that part.
>>291751670Hey oji-san, maybe not say that shit in the open
>>291751726Don't experience new things while sleep deprived, it's a waste.
Why are you guys so obsessed with banging Roman when there's so many cute girls this season?
>>291749890hmm
>>291751722He still has the basic implant that allows for texting.
>>291751722He has a comm implant at the very least.
>>291751722He isn't. You can see he has a phone in his head and slots on his body.
>Hey kid, wanna /ss/?W-why is she like this!?
>>291751605k-kino...>>291751722he still has some implants, like the eyes, the comm implant, the chip slots, etc.
>>291751743For me, it's Omi. Sure she's an obnoxious moralfag but so is Roman.
>>291751399You really riled some butthurt anon
>>291751722Maelstroms have a skewered view of what is considered organic and what is not
>>291751336I liked her, it's good they didn't let her off the hook and she died horrifically.
>>291751785desu her moralfagging has a point, the people responsible are dead and all D was doing was cause mayhem and destruction, he wasn't even enjoying it, just going through the motions
>>291751818I disagree. For a corpo she was really nice and died for no reason.
just waiting for the /ss/ art now
>>291751845she should've married roman's dad
>>291751785D had an obligation to give her the D and rebuild their clan child by child.
>>291750498dont do it Shinji
>>291751785>Obnoxious moralfag>You're literally murdering random people at this point for no reason
>>291749141She was supposed to be getting another surgery in episode 3, and she mentions that she was having to wait for her turn for new cyberware each time (otherwise she would've rushed it faster), so presumably she would've eventually have gotten them. Hell, if Roman had showed up, maybe that surgery would've been the one.
>>291751872Where's Roman's mom? I bet she was hot. I wanted to see her.
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_iNgUJCZXk>your favorite gang isn't featured.It hurts to be a Valentino.

>>291751896>Valentino>favourite gangyou deserve it
>>291751866it already exists, choom
>>291751904well thanks to Caprishe will be fine to /ss/ Roman all the time
Watched it. The whole "everyone is being haunted by the past" thing is cool conceptually but falls somewhat flat since most of the story happened off-screen by design. Every plot line feels like a side story to the main one which doesn't exist.
>>291751926Appropriate since D looks like Seviper
>>291751931It has the second funkiest battle theme in the game.

ABSOLUTELY DISAPPOINTING. puppy love is cute, having a hot older gf as a kid was a dream of everyone. her design is cool as shit but they didnt have to make her with her tits out considering that shes underage. capri was cool as fuck. other than that the characters were shallow and one couldnt even get attached to them, the ending was silly with the machine thing with talia. i really wanted it to be punch in the gut like S1
>>291752084David Martinez, Johnny Silverhand, Morgan Blackhand
>>291752084>Go to the Afterlife>Ask Clair for the DI can see this going wrong.
>Watch the show thinking Talias trauma for chroming up might've been her father sexually abusing her or something>Turns out he actually used his Corpo connections to let her have more and more implants and encouraged her (for corpo reasons albeit)Am I missing something? Yeah he killed the mom but you gotta admit she was a retarded cunt to not seeing coming? The husband is a corpo executive there is no making exceptions for family. What miracle was he supposed to pull out of thin air? The ending was only possible because it was a miracle asspull too you know?

>>291752019>>Some random hobo who thinks he's your dad is hanging around youThe way you said it is so hilarious to me idk why
>>291752286That's just the Gulf Coast and there is a reason why the culture didn't become dominant.
How did talia become magnito? I can get d hacking stuff to make tech malfunction then david had all the tech to do that in the end but this bitch acting like she has the force.

>>291752335Meh most of my feelings towards it stand, but I probably did have some mico-naps while staying up.
>>291752206he basically groomed Talia into wanting more and more chrome.>no chrome?berate her ass call her useless>new chrome?oh sweet baby you're doing so well I'm proud

>>291752486That sounds messed up until you realize>Talia has flesh cancer killing herWhat's so wrong about it
>>291752553No, but does it matter?
>>291752516>that scale into godzillanot even close
Just appreciating this dude's cloak and name...
>>291752571They offscreened the final fight. Everything looked cheap. Did they spend all the money on licensing apparently The Cure's worst song that I didn't even know existed?
>>291752625Gets off screened...
>>291752206he did literally nothing wrong
>What if edgerunners s1 but written by James Gunn with 4 powerless losers as a main cast
>>291749492>NightcrawlerI tried to, but I couldn't finish that one.
>>291752553I think it's implied, Kiril isn't going to say to King "actually you're right she is your daughter" in front of all his goons, and Talia shares a high cyberware tolerance as King.
>>291750900>>291750971The only Pondsmith self-insert to have canonically "won" as of 2077 is Maximum Mike. Morgan Blackhand was only slated as being alive and thriving before 2077's development restarted (You were going to work with him while you had one of three different Engrams in your head, including Saburo and some lady alongside Johnny). The only material referencing him since the post-restarted development indicates he is a fat nobody.
>>291752784he straight up gave him genetic documents, and none of his goons were there. he stayed behind to beat the shit out of him and mock him.
>>291752802all that can be doctored though, and a lot of what Kirils future rode on saying that Talia is his daughter
>>291751149no, it was dogshit and youre right
>>291752784>HERE IS WHY TALIA IS ATCULLY MINE$!$@!$@!lol
>>291751137doesnt exist because nothing happens in s2
>MINE MINE MINEok, cope
>>291750962s1 was better, this is shit. you lost tranny.
>>291752611>GOOOOOOOOOOOOOODS
>>291752844Im not that Anon and recommending HIM to just stop replying to you because you have zero reading comprehension skills if you didn't get the character at all.He's always serious and to the point typical Arasaka. He laughs and even stays behind to personally deliver a whooping to the guy for being the epitome of what a CORPO shouldn't be. An emotional ratAll he had to do was make a test and find out but he was clinging to emotional made up hope. Not that it mattera anyway but you're retarded
>>291750910>>291750972>>291750994misery porn is good actually and fits the setting. this was just a nothingburger coupled with anti implant propaganda
>>291752955found the corpo
>>291752935Uh oh angry cuck having a melty
>>291752955>"this character said so, so that's how it is!"alright man
>>291750650The environment is fucked up and you have to basically carry around your life with you.The 20 guns you left stashed at home mean nothing as all your shit gets repoed while your gone.
>>2917514692077 actually already had indications that corpos were working on past-Blackwall AI. On the radio, someone mentions Biotechnica has a fungus-based electrical bionetwork in the Pacific Northwest for advanced processing and decision-making. Engrams specifically for netrunning existed since 2013. Advanced engrams capable of increasing the overall threshold/cognitive limit for humans that would otherwise cyberpsycho out a la Johnny were a recent innovation as of 2077. The idea of amalgamating groups of AIs for mass compute a la Agent+Subagent AI to produce far more advanced Engrams with the explicit function of producing living agents capable of far crazier shit with netrunning and implants in general is a very logical step when they saw what happened with V.
>>291749602Rolling 1-10 on that Stealth check.
>>291752955He's not Arasaka. He's Kang Tao. He's a Chinese businessman. Those niggas literally can't speak more than two words without lying.
