>>291771601Posting my in depth review of Season 2 - I wanted to do so yesterday but…Anyways, let me preface this with the fact that I’m a massive Trigger cocksucker. I also will compare it to S1 since I just rewatched it beforehand. Also I went into S2 with the expectation that it wouldn’t be as good as S1 because personally I think S1 was lightning in a bottle and is to date the best anime of the 2020’s - for me it was a neigh perfect 9.5.Story - Overall Structure:I love these kinds of stories with many characters and intertwined plotlines and I do think this style fits the setting better than the straightforward approach of S1. The plot lines are densely intertwined and the execution is good, however at its core this approach is much more difficult to execute and brings its own downsides with it. S1 in comparison had a simple and very well known base structure and executed it perfectly. Also since there are so many characters, the story of S2 is much more character driven - it feels like they have a lot more agency whilst in S1 they were more subordinate to the bigger picture of night city, which in my opinion fit the setting better.Story - Characters & Plot:The character plot lines all make sense and are well executed. I love how every single character is at least borderline insane and they have in general more varied dispositions than the S1 characters. However since there are so many of them they don’t leave much room for background characterizations. I feel like S1 had much more interesting “background” characters that are only peripherally relevant to the story - like Faraday, Tanaka or the BD mixer. This detracts points from the strong mood that S1 had which reminded me of the old GitS Movies at times. I also dislike how weak Arakasa was portrayed in S2, it’s interesting to see a corpo on a downward trend but they were borderline incapable. The danger and influence of the corpos in general was way too underplayed in S2.
>>291771848correct you're just a regular psycho
qt
>>291771881>Cont.Overall the story and themes were good, the ending was good even though it was missing the gravitas of S1, but seeing all these characters struggle towards a somewhat decent outcome was interesting in itself. I don’t agree with people saying it was a happy ending - well kinda, it's probably as happy of an end as you can get in Night City.Art & Style:It’s still good and capri’s effects are cooler than the sandy but in general I feel like S1 had slightly better quality and more style. Where it heavily loses is in backgrounds and moodshots - also due to the breakneck pacing past EP2 leaving little room for this.Music:I think this is the biggest deduction to S1. It had some good songs like “Rusty Dreams” but nothing really stood out. S1 used a lot of songs like “Major Crimes” or “Who’s ready for tomorrow” in a way where both the mood and lyrics hit like a truck even aside the standout song “Really want to stay at your house”. In comparison S2 is middling at best. OP was fine but I feel like it was too similar to S1’s OP and didn’t fit that well. I really liked the ED though.Conclusion:It was entertaining but didn’t hit the same as S1. Still a good show, my rating: a solid 7.5/10.
I actually really liked A Rusty Dream, it's genuinely great, on par with season 1 or maybe even better.
>>291771903
I hope things work out for Talia.
I didn't mind extra big air vents but when they finally turned into something that actually served purpose in storytelling my mind was blown.
>>291771903maiden in love
>>291771948This hair look reminds me of the orb piercer from made in abyss when it's got it's hackles up.
True and honest thoughts on these Chooms?
>>291771986why was she so bug coded
>>291771990David won.
>>291771986niggas be like>i can fix her
from world building masterpiece to pretentious drama. it was very predictable and overall uninspired. 6/10. talia being into shota was hot
>>291771990This shot of D activates some deep, primordial part of my lizard brain and tells me this thing is going to kill me
>>291771991There was a flashback of her as a kid in the wheelchair staring at dead bugs.
Hate murderHate revengeLove drivin trucks
Best smile
>>291772011oh shit you're right, the ants and the dead grasshopper, and she chromed herself after the latterkino ngl
>>291771601>steeped in the gang's hyper-violent, chrome-obsessed cultureThis never happens past the introduction scene, even the Maelstrom members themself start acting like a random gang of teenagers who bugger off if they get threatened well enough. There were so many moments in in this season where I thought>oh fuck, something bad is going to happen nowbut the Night City residents all did uncharacteristically really well at holding back, even after they were threatened with deadly force moments prior.
>>291771903cute, cute!
>>291771951First love, at that. It's mentioned she literally never interacted with anyone due to staying in the hospital.
>>291772077She was getting passed around like a cyberblunt by Maelstrom though? They literally knew her by name
>>291771990Whenever D. had his hair up like that it made me think of Blame!
>>291772009
>>291772087>Here's what's said directly in the series.>Here's my porn-brained headcanon.She went to them for surgeries; she never was part of the gang.
>>291772092if only you knew how bad things really are
>>291771910No, OP was ass this time. How do you go from BASED Ferdinand to "Drip! drip! drip! drip!"? Shit was garbage you'd probably hear on Adult Swim and Robert Smith should hang himself with an extension cord because of this.
>>291772088I kept thinking about the Slim Jim guy.
>>291772096Okay but that means she interacted with people outside of the hospital
Just finished>First 2 episodes feel a little different than the rest>Generally ends on a pretty hopeful note despite all the destruction>Still plenty of death and sadness for the guys who wanted misery porn>A lot of characters were introduced and then didn't really get to do anything>Kyoko ended up being a lot more likable than expected>Talia and Roman OTP>D got trolled to death(?)>King's a good guy, Clancy Brown actually did some great VA work tooOverall I enjoyed it. Not as intense as season 1, but I'd give it a 8 or 9/10. Definitely looking forward to a followup in 3 years.
Talia looks like kind of a freak, at least when her faceplate is off
>there is people mad we got a more optimistic ending instead of pure tragedy kino>there is people upset that these damaged characters got to end their story with a smile for once This is post 2077. This is what V fought for. A world with less corpo bullshit. Less corruption.
>>291772107Kek thisA fucking song about a faucet dripping, who the fuck approved that?
>>291772111The point is that, even outside the hospital, the only thing she did was getting surgeries, something also associated with hospitals.Roman was the first time she was shown something different, which is why she latches onto him.
>>291771601This season tried to do too much at once and it all kinda fell flat. Nothing got enough attention
>>291772124Oh I forgot English king was Clancy Brown. Maybe I will give English a chance later.
>>291772127Besides, the real world sucks enough. Does all our entertainment have to be sad too
Roman is upset, what did you do?
there is too much 'show don't tell' shit, it's ok for few times, not for 50th time
>>291772185I raped him
>>291772064What's her endgame?
>>291772192Such as?
>>291772064Dabiddo is so lucky....
>>291772185I broke his camera and called him a fag
>>291772124>>A lot of characters were introduced and then didn't really get to do anythingThis, they need to write out the side characters next time and focus on a duo ideally.
>>291772129Someone who's probably not employed anymore.
Omi never actually denied it.
We all agree this was the best song this season, yes?https://youtu.be/gKoaAow1XLY
>>291772232You can tell she was seething

>>291772124Hearing both Tommy Pickles and Mr. Krabs curse was a thing I didn't even know was on the bingo card.

>>291772239Yes yes yes.
Canon
>>291772239It's good but dosn't feel cyberpunk the way I Want To Stay at your Home did.
>>291772239I like the ED as well.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_45W6bf7x8
>>291771903this is a dangerous predator
>>291772185Told him that I fucked Talia.
Not gonna lie, I söyfaced when they talked about David Martinez. Especially at the end when D talked about him, and how his death could save others. I thought it was a kino beautiful parallel. I don't care if it was forced.
>>291772294You and me both know she will fuck someone else in her new city and leave Roman left on read.
>saw this image and thought the series was gonna be about D protecting Roman from going cyberpsycho (keeping him away from the red line)Boy was I off
>>291772294Kid's skin should be lighter that's clearly not his
>>291771990
Niggas who thinks s2 doesn't wipe the ground with s1 must be huffing some s-tier copium. There isn't a single area where s1 is better than s2.
>>291772325nah if anything she should be worried about someone taking roman
>>291772345Whoops
What kind of couple would they be?
>>291772352The soundtrack
this season feels like build up for season 3
>>291772352Music
>>291771601What was the deal with Kyoko. She was the weirdest character. Was she just in love with the caprisun?
>>291772324We had Streed Kid David, now we have Nomad David, and we’ll get Corpo David in Season 3.
>grown so powerful they had to call the EDFAir Raider OP, pls nerf
>>291772361It's too bad they didn't hide capri in these images. I get that it's the line, but if she was more recognizable now that people know who it is would be neat.
>>291772325She’s literally never been happier in her entire life when she was with Roman.
>>291772375In the way a mother loves a daughter, yes
>>291772124>Generally ends on a pretty hopeful note despite all the destructionNot sure why they did so much sugar coating in season 2, we know for a fact that Talia is still dying and both D and Capri are also dead since despite their attempt at making their deaths vague, Capri cannot hop to different machines, only human hosts via her shard to specifically prevent her from escaping to the internet and join the Blackwall AIs.
>>291772096>hangs out with MaelstromIt says so right in the official image in the OP. She gets introduced by doing wire acts that were set up by them for her, including the crane drop. I'm nta, I'm not going to shitpost they were passing her around, but she was well acquainted with them. Your forced faggy shota headcanon is not in any way better than that type of shitposting though. She didn't even "latch on" to Roman, she latches on to the way he filmed her, which is the exactly what Roman talks about to the BD guy in the beginning, the effect it can have on people and for Talia it was seeing herself in a way she never could before, that's why she didn't want to meet Roman again for his sake, she wanted to be filmed by him again. Like she quiet literally gives no shit about him until she watches the recording and even then it's not like>uh oh, better stop Maelstrom from fucking him upbecomes a priority to her, she only later spots him by pure chance and then tries everything to get him to film her again, still not caring how he was doing.
>there is pearl clutching elitists that watched the sub over the fantastic dub of an anime that takes place in America, with American characters, using in universe slang, with correct accents
>>291772325Right, because cripples with a terminal illness are just drowning in love letters.
>>291772407I watched sub but with dub captions for the localization
>>291771857>heigh: 174he is a manlet on screen, is everyone in night city 3 meters tall?
>>291772375She was a scientist that previously worked at Arasaka and created Capri and was obsessed with making her a successful project. She got fired after one of her tests failed and killed a bunch of saka guys.
>>291772399You can see the satellite's light shutting off at the end which is Capri's signature move tho. They made it.
What would he have thought of his daughter's boyfriend?
>>291772407The dub acting sounds terrible.
>>291772279How does she even has sex?
>>291772408The fact that prostitution still exist in this universe says yes.
>>291772434He would have Roman killed.
>>291772294There's no way she can still get pregnant with such a fucked up body.
>>291772403>She didn't even "latch on" to RomanThere are several instances in the "revenge" montage with D where she's calling Roman and he rejects it. He's literally the only person she actively wants to spend time with and when trying to pass off someone as her boyfriend Roman is the first person she thinks of. Also, the person whose face she sees when possessed by Capri.It's not subtle.
>>291771601>animation is terrible compared to the first season>sasuke uchiha protag>panty and stocking meme characterWhat the fuck did I just watch? Is this actually season 2 or someone's AI fanfic of season 2? What's happening? Have trigger given an official explanation for Sasuke? It feels like they didn't take this season seriously at all.
>>291772434I think he would have been okay as long as she was happy. He obviously wasn't too restrictive on her behavior. Just because he wanted to use her to develop weapons doesn't mean he didn't also care about her. He just cared about being a corpo more.
>>291772370it feels like a disjointed clusterfuck
>>291772185Made him record me creampieing Talia
>>291772000Those niggas took Maelstrom grafting classes and learned how to weld the latest Vagucker 9000 with a working uterus that supports pregnancy while playing DOOM on her hologram mouthTheyll be fine
>>291772458Okay but the panty and stocking meme character was actually okay.But yes, the other stuff.
>>291772458watch less anime
Too many storyline and characters. The development for each one was extremely shallow. It didnt have any good reoccurring set pieces either
>>291772352You're either on crack or lying to yourself. It's like they had half the animation budget of season 1.
>>291772352The soundtrack is objectively superior in S1, and now I figured out why - in S1 the OST was handled by a Pole, in S2 it's a Japanese guy.
Has anyone tried the new 2077 update? They added a new gig where V meets and teams up with King.
>>291772294talia was such wasted potential. her tits should've been this big in the show
why only 10 episodes?
>>291772487>thinking Netflix doesn't operate on a shoestring budget for all of their shows in the first place
>>291772508Like, the anime character is literally in the game? I find that a little hard to believe. Maybe he calls you or something? But he's not gonna be 'in' the game.
>>291772508ain't out yet
>>291772508Too lazy to download it
>>291772508I want to but I dont feel like reinstalling the game yet
>>291772522Did you even watch it? They had to have run out of budget.
>>291772529Clancy Brown's voice is heard in the update trailer at least.
>>291771990dng, bottom is fugly
There was no reason why D and Capri has to go out fighting Arasaka and Militech, they could just run away and use their hacking ability to disappear from any surveillance and live happily ever after.
>According to Mills, Season 2 takes place not long after you bite the bullet and finally meet Hanako at Embers in Cyberpunk 2077.>"Ok so the thing is that I am seeing a lot of people assuming S2 takes place before 2077 but it doesn't, it takes place in 2078," Mills confirmed in a post on Bluesky. "Moving things forward, time doesn't stop in Cyberpunk."
>>291772568I don't know how anybody could possibly make this mistake.
Is everyone forgetting E. G. Daily voiced Kyoko?
>>291771923It was great as a sad song insert in the anime
>>291772552You dumb nigger s1 was also 10 episodes
>>291772562>they could just run awayAnon, they don't know how to fly, so outrunning the corpos was impossible.
>>291772529It’s a call. You can also get his outfit and gun, get dual wielding, and customize your Cyberware.
>>291772370Yeah I felt that too, this felt less like a one shot and more like "We are fully expecting more episodes"
Who's the Adam Smasher of Kang Tao?
>>291772562They did run. They made it past the Blackwall.
>>291772370>>291772599Every major character survives in one way or another + 3 out 4 leave the city. Yeah, it's obvious they're at least leaving room for a sequel.
>>291772508Oh boy that crop could look better. Looks like a rush job
>>291772597>then how tf does he have those both in the show 1 year later?
>>291772586I thought it was 12. Weird. S2 still fucked their budget up and it's obvious.
>>291772352Looking back s1 was so much more colorful and better put together.Haven't made one for S2 yet, but it is like episode 6 stretched into whole season.Very little action scenes too, you can take a random screenshot of s2 and it will be people talking.
>>291772630I also thought it was 12 until I rechecked recently for some reason.
>>291772562There really wasnt. Everyone had transportation already. It felt like a damn Gundam-esque wrap up which is silly given how easy it is canonically to just slip into the shadows.
>>291772630Was it a budget thing? Feels more like Trigger/CDPR just bit off more than they could chew. Like they had ideas for two seasons but just combined them into one because they thought they wouldn't get another chance at a third season.
>>291772197She looks like a Panty & Stocking character.
>>291772665maybe she is, D did call her a demon
>>291772645Look at it like this: We traded high octane action for a more character focused story.
>>291772532it's out, 13gb
>>291772457I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt that you are genuine here, but yes, Roman is the only person she can call who isn't her parents or a washed-up edgerunner after her connection to Maelstrom was fucked thanks to those other people meddling, but man, are you really going to pretend the typical>this is totally my boyfriendbullshit is indicative of anything? Roman didn't even have a meaningful part in the finale, he existed in the car and there was never a moment where "he pulled her back from the edge" or something, in the end what stopped her was D getting Capri back. Even King got more pause out of her on her rampage.
>>291772645This color palette wouldn't fit S2 at all
>>291772665I'm sure it's intentional. Capri literally looks like Panty or one of the Demons
>>291772708Yeah, that's what I thought as well. I don't consider it a bad thing, but she really stands out compared with the rest of the characters.
>>291772664Capri probably ate most of the budget. >because they thought they wouldn't get another chance at a third seasonI guess they won't have to worry about that anymore.
put your dick in it
No love for the lolibaba?
>>291772747My dick is thicker than a french fry tho
>>291772747She's kinda gross de su
>>2917727612nd best character in the show.
>>291772761I was the FIRST one in these threads to say I wanted to do sexual things to Kyoko
fucking orbital lazered
>>291772562It made no real sense, even if they couldn't disappear from everyone's optics, the whole>nah, this is where my story ends>wow, this totally reminds me of that other David who also sacrifced himself the same wayin case viewers didn't notice that it was doing the S1 ending but worse, was silly.
>People are already melting down on other sites that Talia is a "paedophile."Are they retarded? She's portrayed as an actual teenager, I wouldn't give her more than 15-16 based on her emotional maturity.
The last EP was kino.>WAAAH THEY SKIPPED THE FIGHT>it's actually kino moment S2 is refined taste.
>>291772761Unironically thought it was just a nerdy man. How do you groom yourself as a female to be THAT lacking in feminine features.
>>291772708Yupi is Panty
I was really hoping for a Silverhand cameo
How did nuDavid tame a rampant prototype Soul Killer construct? Was he truly built different?
much like arcane. season 1 was better than 2. but 2 has characters i liked, king and roman deserved to be in a better season.
>>291772766Roman's probably isn't
>>291772804I actually liked how the skip emphasized it wasn't even a fight even if they obviously did it for budget reasons
>>291772761Reminder: she's voiced by Tommy/Buttercup.
>>29177279712 x 16 years old is still a too wide of an age gap. It's basically Kotone x Ken again.
>>291772812He showed her romantic affection, something she was completely unaccustomed to.
>>291772797Probably 16 or 17. She reminds me more of David than D did.
>>291772616Nobody. The only people that can compete with Smasher are Blackhand and Zaburo. Smasher existed as a fuck you move for DMs when you make enough shitty decisions or you need an endgame boss.Killing him off in 2077 was a dumb move unless they decide to escalate things to blackwall ai in the next game.
>>291772325hot
man
>>291772828>12 x 16 years old is still a too wide of an age gap.And it's used to portray how sad and pathetic her life is, that her romantic affections are directed towards a kid who did something nice for her.
>>291772821>if they obviously did it for budget reasonsDoubt.
>>291772811>Silverhand cameothere is samurai logo in afterlife
>>291772797Anon can you please go back to other sitesPlease. I don't want to know what people from other sites think.Thanks.
>>291772239I wish they'd used these two more oftenhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PLfcBc-0Oo&list=RD_PLfcBc-0Oo&start_radio=1https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6hOlik58gg&list=RDT6hOlik58gg&start_radio=1I expected High Forever to be the new "stay at your house", but the emotional impact just wasn't there when it was playing in the show.I think Talia and Roman met like what 3 times before they had their drive-in cinema date?
>>291772850>And it's used to portray how sad and pathetic her life isIs it? One of the final lines of the show is Roman telling Talia how perfect and it's framed romantically where they're just about to sort of kiss.
>>291772841So if I wanted to flip the board clean, I could use Smasher? Interesting...
>>291771601I just realized that they might have stitched two stories together during production.King Talia Roman:Roman sets out to film Maelstrom and meets Talia. He is rescued by King who is sent to retrieve Talia by Avida. Roman and King search for Talia together and eventually find her. Talia wants her feats at the peak of physical condition to be recorded and that's what they do for the first half. In the second half whatever Kang Tao research Kiril was grooming Talia for and Soul Killer plots kick in.D Capri:D finds Capri shard during his quest for revenge. He is genuinely built different and can host her without getting overwritten. A spree against Arasaka ensues, with Omi and Yupi trying to drag him into the opposite directions while he is gradually falling for the AI in his head and becoming dejected due to the details about the raid and how everyone involved is already dead. Last stretch is merging with Capri and upload to satellite plot.As is:Roman doesn't matter because D doesn't care about being filmed, the propaganda part could have been handled by Yupi just as wellTalia is established as an edgerunner but doesn't get to show off before being relegated to hospital dutyKing never does have the talk with his would be daughter on screenCapri acts like there is something special about Talia and she was looking for her all along, then proceeds to barely do anything, construct a car kaiju and almost die to an airstrike half an hour later after she is fully installed (???)D spends most of the time with an emotionless castrated version of CapriNone of the character pairs have time to really bond with each other on screen in general
>SO COME ON!>LET'S LIVE!
>>291772885>I think Talia and Roman met like what 3 times before they had their drive-in cinema date?I think people miss the point that >>291772850 - her instant attachment to the kid isn't supposed to be creepy, but sad.
Killing him at the end of the last game can be handwaved away by having a new Adam Smasher get booted up off a Relic back-up. Adam Smasher, the ultimate Fuck You.
>>291772916She's not really that attached to Roman. Everybody keeps forgetting the movie 'date' was a plan by Capri, not Talia wanting to spend time with Roman. Talia couldn't get out of there fast enough.
>>291771601https://youtu.be/hylmr-LlFtECan we all at least agree it was a better story than the video games?
I believe they will meet again
Why is the digital murder bot a recycled PSG character?
>she didn't run away like othersPerky tits didn't deserve this
>>291772909>Talia is established as an edgerunnerShe's not, she's LARPing as one but spends 90% of her time in the hospital.
>>291772910he's so moe
They did fucking nothing with her...
>>291772945Kind of a low bar, eh?I would say it's about on par with phantom liberty's story (I liked phantom liberty)
>adam smasher trying to fight king (he needs to make sure his daughter is okay)
>>291772964As other anons pointed out, I don't think this one will be a standalone story. There'll be a sequel, so they can afford to set up more characters.
So why didn't he use Kang Tao's Soulkiller on Talia with the pretense of using her as a test subject as a way to justify using it to his bosses? They have a research facility complete with substitute bodies, so they must still be working on making a successful soul transfer despite his claims that Kang Tao already stopped their experiments.
>>291772964She’s going to groom Roman later.
>>291772964I HATE IT Once again S2 need 2 more SoL EPs or just 40min format.
>powerscalingfags already comparing D saying he can solo V and SongbirdWoah, let's not go too far with the glaze here
In another thread, someone said that they didn't understand why this anime was even made. I'm not going to fully endorse that statement, however, I get the sentiment and even sympathise to a greater extent than what I would otherwise care to admit.Way too many concurrent plot threads for a 10 episode anime, fucking hate the Guy Ritchie school of storytelling. The first season was a pretty straight forward tragic love story, it was an easy crowd pleaser, but this one is just too unfocused with no big pay off and too many loose threads and wasted concepts. Capri was a cool concept completely wasted on this, although I don't like them committing to the indivisible cybersoul bullshit, constructs should more or less be infinitely copy/pasteable, don't give me this bullshit about having to transfer them from one place to another. Doesn't bode well for the upcoming sequel to 2077 and I'm not sure why Pondsmith signed off on this given the lore implications.I don't get Talia, I don't get the cuckening of King, I don't get why Capri fixates on a distant satellite for seemingly no reason (ooohhh ohhh buy our next game!!), I don't get why the tone is so utterly joyless, I don't get why the Kojima meme, I don't get Crispy Sasuke, I don't get Kyoko Ex Machina, I don't get why we're doing gratuitous ESP in a sci-fi.There are some nice ingredients here, I like how it tries to be more high brow than S1 and I like the commitment to the absolute shittiness of a cyberpunk reality, I like concepts such as the death of cinema and all video production essentially devolving into marketing, I even like most of the character, or at least can see them working with some tweaks.Admittedly, I kinda speedwatched this one, but after episode 4 or so I just wanted to get it over with. I'm pretty sure I'll have to revise some of my dumb reactive takes on this, but this really, really made me reconsider my excitement for Orion.I rate this one a D+. Thank you for reading my blog.
>>291772985There was no reason for him not to try if that's his daughter.
>>291772885And it wasn't even a date-date, it was part of the whole bit of Capri manipulation Talia to get her other half. Also props to Capri, the personality eating war construct, for having more qualms about harming and involving others than the two people she tried to bodysnatch to attain freedom.
>>291772970It’s funny because Raiden and Smasher are both full borgs.
>>291772985>So why didn't he use Kang Tao's Soulkiller on Talia with the pretense of using her as a test subject as a way to justify using it to his bosses?Because he had no way of knowing that Arasaka figured out she might serve as a host, he didn't know about the list. So to him it would just kill her on the spot.
>dont worry Capri i'm here to cure you of Talia's rage and bring you home>what the fuck are you talking aboutCapri not giving a fuck about D and being really confused when he showed up was really funny. She was just giving Talia exactly what she wanted as a last favor like how she let D have fun before trying to take him.
INT > STRS2 > S1You may not like it but this is truth.
>>291772970Anyone respect the fuck out of his King's resolve to never slot back into stronger gear and stay his weaker self so he could be there for the ones he loves? Dangerously based
ded
>>291772909It would have been better if S2 was either about >King forming a bond with Talia and trying to save her while also having to solely rely on his street smarts and past experiences after he lost most of his high tech chrome in NC where everyone is a super cyborgor>Roman befriending D, them teaming up to help each other's goals (reviving cinema and avenging the D clan) only for the revenge quest to devolve into depravity because Night City culture commercialized and corrupted their initial goals, and their brotherly bond tragically falls apartOr just made them in S2 and S3 respectively back to back.
>>291772948Fact that she hung up on him is a red flag Anon.
>>291772985Talia’s body is too important.
>>291772562>they could just run away and use their hacking ability to disappear from any surveillance and live happily ever after.That's exactly what the show implies. Capri was looking up into the sky looking at satellites, and D told her he wants to go have fun with her. As a netrunner, he's already used to "physically" existing in and navigating cyberspace, so Capri fully digitizing his consciousness and beaming them both into cyberspace in the orbit is quite possible given what Blackwall-level AIs can accomplish and what Capri was shown to do in the show
>>291772761I want to plap this ugly hag gremlin until she's happily pregnant and we have a child together, realizing that the greatest weapon of all is love.
>>291773004Who are you?
>>291772909>Capri acts like there is something special about Talia and she was looking for her all along, then proceeds to barely do anything, construct a car kaiju and almost die to an airstrike half an hour later after she is fully installed (???)yea it's a mess. i didn't need much I just needed doomed romance between film maker and terminally ill girl and I got fucking this mess instead. there was a good story in here but it's burried by pointless shit.
ROMAN, ARE YOU FILMING YOU SHOTAFUCK COME ON
>>291772596>hack kang tao/saka/militech/etc drone thats large enough to carry a dude but small enough to not be noticeable on radar>flyit's that shrimple
>>291772943looks at the camera as he says this.
Best girlI wish she got a better deal
Choose
It feels softer than the first season because it has Roman in it
>>291772841>morgan cowardhand glaze
>>291772962That's the problem, isn't it? She should have burned a bit before getting burnt out. She looks cool in episode 1 and we even have a character in the cast who wants to capture exactly that but then it just never happens.
>>291773035I'm an engram made of 20% of morbidly obese /a/ oldfags.
>>291773054Everybody knows his name and face by then. He'll be hunted down until they get him, it's as simple as that. The only way of escaping is what he did, transferring his consciousness to a satellite, which seems to have been Capri's original plan.
>>291773033>That's exactly what the show implies. Capri was looking up into the sky looking at satellites, and D told her he wants to go have fun with her.To be fair, you need to have a very high IQ to understand Cyberpunk Edgerunners Season 2.
>>291772937you're really obsessed with this idea huh
>>291772985he wanted to turn her into kang taos version of adam smasher.
>>291773077That's the subversion of her character arc. You're expecting a David 2.0 but instead get a broken, desperately lonely and unhappy teenager who is s starved for anything in life she falls in love, or something close to it, with a fucking kid.
>>291773071I pick the constructussy
>>291773071Yupi is fun despite her immorality
>>291772294Breasts too big.
Do you think Roman recorded Yupi giving D's D the sloppy?
>>291773122Roman has a bunch of videos he's actually forbidden by law to watch
>>291773033Capri can't jump into other machines, she's limited to transferring herself via her shard and only between humans, she was purposely made that way so she can't escape to the internet.They're both dead, DEAD!
>>291773071>3 hydrogen bombs vs coughing baby
>>291773071BD girl and Yupi!
>>291773089You just need to have a functioning brain, and that seems to be a rare commodity among /a/nons.
>>291773004I liked kyoko but I agree with 95% of what you said.
>>291773133Wait, which one's the baby?
>>291772963Man who thought he lost all will to live finds ADDITIONAL REASON TO LIVE!
>>291773109The metanarrative here is that what happened to David is fucked with a capital F. No one should ever aspire to what he became. So the purpose of this season is that three people who were in David-like situations managed to pull each other out of them.
>>291773004You seem like you don't 'get' a lot of things in life.
>>291773024Those were some of the more visually evocative shots of the whole season, and they didn't really have any impact at all because she's a nobody.
>>291773027Yeah, or just have more fucking episodes so you can fit it all in.We never really explore why Capri inserted herself into Talia for example. We know that she saw Talia on the compatible subjects list, but that's about it.Did she just really want her own body that she could fully overwrite the host of, rather than sharing with D?Did she "like" Talia as her body? Her appearance (feminine), implants, etc.?Or was it just an impulsive action from a crazy construct that we know has basically 0 impulse control?The D side of the plot is fairly well explored by the end, but a lot to do with Talia really isn't.
>>291773147Omi
>>291772970Could someone reach Armstrong's level in Cyberpunk using nanomachines or bioware instead of chrome?I'm looking to get into the tabletop but I thought it might be fun to make a character that tries to avoid cyberware...
Hahahaha the camera is pointing back at you anon.
>Trigger can do a lot with a small budget>let's see what they can do with an even smaller one
>>291773096It's explicitly pointed out in the show. Talia might like Roman but she's not actually taking him out on cute dates.
>>291773132>Capri can't jump into other machinesLolLMAOShe wasn't even able restrain her despite boasting about how she made her.
>>291773155The problem is that it feels more like subversion for the sake of subversion.>Oh Cyberpunk never has happy endings? Well everyone got one this timeExcept it feels unearned because storyline was trying to do their own thing without having much to do with the other.
>>291773071Jessie
>>291773184does this mean capri let D get captured if she just broke talia free
>>291773071Yupi just needed cock correction I am more than prepared to give also lol @ no Avida
>>291773109David started at zero and gradually ascended. Talia would start the series at the peak and gradually fail. She would still be in a broken body with Roman giving her the peace of mind by capturing that moment.
It's cool that instead of one MC this season, we got 4...well 3 1/2 (Talia being the half), but they should've either increased the episode count or made this a two part season.
Do they have any idea that replacing Keanu Chungus with Capri would save so much budget
>>291773147TaliaNothing beats organic pussy, having sex with Talia is just like masturbating using a fleshlight.
>see more or less happy ending>SUBVERSION OMG
>>291773187Nah. No one wants the same thing over and over.
>>291773132I think that will be explained away with something along the lines of it being the human soul rather than the human body that the construct needs to survive.When Capri jumps out of D's body towards the satellite at the end you can see D's face in the energy trail.
>>291773184yea its an idiot take considering she literally left remnants in both compatible carriers even when the chip isn't there. She obviously overcame her limitations the moment she was put into D.
>>291773109>broken, desperately lonely and unhappy teenager who is s starved for anything in lifeThat’s David.
>LET'S LIVE!
the boys
>>291773235I love them
>>291772964She should've been Yupi tbdesu. Would've tied the whole production studio thing even better to the plot
>>291773004I read your blog and you are right. Yesterday I was amused when I found out that King's weapon and coat is in the new 2077 update, like there is any significance to getting items of wasted nothing character like that.
>>291773187>happyI mean D killed himselfTalia is still crippledKing was cuckedKyoko diedRoman yea I guess roman gets off scot free except all his friends are leaving or dead and she cant even kiss his robo gf becasue she has no mouth. wew I mean I don't know man
>>291773157I don't get what you're trying to say. Ironic.Look, I'm just sharing my thoughts and trying to discuss this anime, so spare me the vague passive-aggressive nonsense. Makes for exceedingly poor conversations.
>>291773221yea D straight up digitized
YES TOGETHER ME WE WILL DESTROY BLACKROCK
>>291773132>Capri can't jump into other machinesThis is proven wrong in the show itself. Capri was able to shave off her personality and store it in Talia sans any chip hardware. Sure, she lost some capabilities, but if it's that or death I think she's gonna make the pragmatic choice.
>>291773168You're tweaking, you fucking gonk.
>>291773171kino roman spends the entire show filming and in the end he's the one being filmed. FUCKING KINOWE CAME FULL CIRCLE
>>291773256D and Kyoko are firmly in ambiguous territory
>>291773262>>291773221fuck wrong image
>>291773187None of the endings are happy, they're bittersweet at best.>D is dead and MAYBE transferred his consciousness to a satelite.>Weak is completely broken, lost everything, and has to slowly crawl back out of the gutter.>Talia still has a terminal disease, lost most of her chrome, is now truly a cripple, and now is separated with a kid she potentially has romantic feelings for.>Roman is left alone in Night City only now having realized she has feelings for Talia, who may soon die.
>>291773158Yeah a real tragedy>lose your dad, the only family you cared about>powerless to do anything >some choom says he's gonna get back at araska>he kinda hot>he helps himself and her get revenge on arasaka>he dies and shes back to being powerless >grabs the gun in a final attempt to have some control>takes 3 to the headLmao she was cute but was way in over her head, she went over the edgecrazy part is how D managed to survive and shes barely a passing memory
She's so hot
>>291773209They couldve put Alt as our engram and everyone would still be into Cyberpunk. Hell put ANY attractive female in and it would work. Men would simp out like D
I could have saved D from his pointless revenge quest that was ultimately just him seeking to hurt as many people that were associated with the actual people who hurt him since he missed his chance and that broke him.To do this I would stop him and little by little show him love until he finds meaning in life and decides he'd like to be a domestic housewife to me.
>>291773287Okay lets say D and Capri are.But kyoko looked pretty final anon.
>>291771986Head pussy...

>>291773292But they're all still alive. More sweet than bitter
>>291773292Midwit take.
>>291773288Holy shit I missed this, they actually made it.
>>291773293From her POV D is dead. So instead of running away she decided to go with him. She's pretty cool.
SOMEBODY!I'VE GOT NOBODY ELSE!
>>291773333quads of HOPE
>>291773335Should say>Fuck my wife
>>291773274She's the one with the least red flags of all 4
>>291771601Small correction
>>291773333I like how all Weak stuff I see online is either the most hope and loved filled posts ever or people saying they completely understand why he was going to blow his brains out.
>>291773327She never gave a shit about D and she isn't "going with him". She is just unable to capitulate to the Corpos in that moment after feeling like she could actually get one over on them. She is shown to be an extremely selfish character.
Kyoko and D are exactly the same and Capri views them the same.
>>291773221>>291773268That doesn't really contradict her stated ability.She can only transfer herself via her shard, if she could transfer herself wirelessly, then she doesn't need human host bodies.If she did live at the end, then it's an asspull ability that goes beyond what she should be capable of doing.
>>291773308anon, im pretty sure thats a real piece of chrome in-universe.
>>291773170Generally, IIRC bioware is much more (orders of magnitude) expensive than cyber and there's a lot less of it around (practically unheard of outside of Europe), since it usually needs to be custom-grown, nanomachine ones included. It also generally needs time to get used to (e.g. actual physical therapy sessions, etc.), so it's not really used that much for crazy combat/military use-cases, where it's generally more cost effective to just manufacture and churn through controlled cyberpsychos and/or full borgs.Theoretically possible though, but extremely unlikely to actually happen.
>>291773308>>291771986Fuck you im seeing it. Vulva clitoris everything
>>291773304You can’t save this human disaster.
>>291773357You should have changed it to:>Young Cinephile>Young Paedophile
>>291773349I need you to stop thinking about cuckoldry for a single second it's starting to become awkward.
Wonder how much of Capri was split between Talia and D after their encounter. Half of Capri atomized a nigga and the other half basically cured Talia brain problem. Full power Capri and D last stand against the military seemed to last for hours too considering they started at sunset and he's still standing by midnight
>>291773326yea it was during the corpo face off when he charges in with Capri and wipes them outI feel like one a second rewatch S2 is better since there are some small blink and you miss it type stuff, like obviously there is still a glaring issue of pacing and needing more episodes
>>291773235he said no pickles
>>291773360>She never gave a shit about DShe got obsessed with D judging by all dialogues and reaction. Your interpretation isn't canon.
>>291773383We don't have to pretend that king isn't a huge cuck
>>291773381Roman is a pedo too?
I wonder if D is actually losing his mind though. Apparently AI can do that in the lore. In the game Johnny Silverhand apparently even gave V false memories of him being a hero launching a nuke when it’s not what happened in reality and got raped by Adam Smasher like David
>>291773367I think that there's just something going on that we weren't privy to. She obviously has plans running in parallel the entire show because she was constantly smirking while looking up at that damn satellite and we never got to hear her explanation as to why. It can't have just been nothing, the scenes were way to pointed about her fixation on the sky, but whether or not we'll ever get that information is up in the air.
>>291773411More of a simp than a cuck
>>291773359It's funny all the post I see are either the most hopepilled post or people calling him a cuck.
Avida and King never even had sex he just had a complete misunderstanding about how babies are made.
>>291773200>no Avida>ugly bitch>manipulated old lover and psy-opped him into thinking some girl was his(very well could be considering how old she is, but was left vague) just to scout work from him>doing this to him at his weakest>almost gets him killed while getting herself killed finding a replacement body for said girlThis reminds me of what happened to Kei in Gantz when Kishimoto was using him and his feelings for her to get what she wanted while not giving a fuck about him and pining for Kato instead. I'm happy that both bitches died.
>>291773268Why are you people so retarded? Is Talia a machine? The whole point of Capri was that she needed to run on a human brain, which both D and Talia have. If she could purely exist in digital form, she would've figured that out earlier than the endpoint in the story, because she was hacking into everything all the time. Also you know what the satellite thing was with>You think we can make it?it was them sending their final footage to Roman or how else do you think he got it from the little camcorder when the entire area was about to be glassed?
>>291773370Shiiiiiiit, so there's no way to actually make it work in a campaign unless you have a DM pretty much running a homebrew setting?
>>291773367D is a netrunner, so if she (fully) digitizes his consciousness (like her install is already doing, but overriding/wiping normally as designed), using her powers, D can connect to the cyberspace and Capri piggybacks on his "physical" cyberspace presence. Something like that, I'd assume.
>>291773392I never got how Capri gave D magnet powers tho. I can get how Talia did given how shes mostly chrome and all that chorme has generators and magnetic material in it, not too much of a stretch to think the pseudo-AI was able to magnetize it. but D was mostly 'ganic compared to Talia, most of his chrome would have been in his head.
I LOVE OMI!
>>291773438Just let it go DOOMKEKtardYou even see D here >>291773288except he isn't a engram.>IT'S NOT POSSIBLE NOOOOO
I didn't even noticed that D said this before leaving >Stay gold Sunshine
>at least he's not gooning to BDs
>i'm 35 years old
>>291773468Then why are you posting off-model art that isn't really what she looks like? Seems like you love giant tits more than you love Omi.
Know nothing about Cyberpunk lore, but serious question: Does she still has a vagina or a butthole?

ojousama talia......
>>291773517I just think if you love a character you should like art of the way they really look. Maybe with an exception made for the occasional catgirl version.
>>291773468SAGGERS
>>291773333I think those who complain they did nothing with Weak missed the point. He got dunked on every step of the way but never gave up. Didn't physically save his daughter, didn't even actually get to be her dad, but remained an emotional pillar for her because he showed hitting rock bottom doesn't have to be the end. He could have chromed out and died guns blazing getting revenge on the man who cucked him, but it wouldn't have helped his character beyond momentary satisfaction and the sense "that's just how things go in this world." But Weak deserved this happy ending most of all. Night City couldn't kill him inside even if he had every reason to want to die. What a king.
>>291773522Again, Capri isn’t an AI.
Bro said “2D girls not 3D” to Omi and Roman and teleported to a satellite
Is Night City really so hedonistic and fucked up that nobody saw a problem with Roman hanging out with this older man on a roof with just his underwear? I swear when he bathes him the angle shows that it's impossible Roman didn't get a faceful of D's dick...
>>291773408Obsessed isn't love, or even affection. She is obsessed with his power and his potential to destroy her enemies and get the revenge that she is incapable of obtaining on her own. There isn't really a single example of her actually caring about him or any of his problems.I really don't know how you can watch this and come out of it thinking that she was anything but a revenge obsessed narcissist.
>>291773254I get CucKing's arc in theory, so I wouldn't say he's a nothing character, it's actually really heavy stuff that has the bones of a great mature plot. But there is no pay off at all to this other than him deluding himself of fatherhood for reasons that we're never really privy to. There was a great story in here somewhere, but not one you could tell while juggling five other plots in 10 episodes. So the 2.5 update feels like a fucking forced meme because CucKing wasn't well delivered as a character. But we're supposed to wear the cuck mantle and the cuck glasses while firing the cuck shooter because we have to pretend that his story was well told.Honestly, what aggravates me the most is what they're doing to constructs now. Like they can't be infinitely copyable because they aren't just software, they're very special individuals. This was a settled debate in Cyberpunk already, it's just software located in some medium, either biological or mechanical/digital, that either can or cannot run them or not. I don't like the cynicism of having Capri staring at a satellite (as if she/it has eyes) and not explain shit about it, JUST BUY CYBERPUNK ORION GOYS!! Casually invading Arasaka NC HQ is supreme silliness if you know the greater lore, megacorps aren't a joke, they're not pushovers. As great as Capri is, she would be just one of several Arasaka black projects. Even Militech had at least four sites dedicated to project Cynosure, which was already a defunct project for over a decade by the time V came around. We get that AIs in this world are freaky cosmic horrors, but they aren't doing supernatural bullshit like magnetising everything around them or manifesting themselves as balls or energy, or making their presence known outside of their USB stick, or creating super sentai robots, etc.At some point, enough is enough. This feels really bad for Orion if this is the tone they intend to carry forward, if I'm being honest.
>>291773569Close enough. Yes she’s human consciousness into one thing but it might as well be ai barely difference
>>291773524I'm seeing a large cock port hidden behind that chrome cover.
>>291773486Only good parental figure in the entire show and all he did was let his kid do anything he want with no supervision. really makes you think.
>>291773574>Is Night City really so hedonistic and fucked upYes.
>>291773564>I just think if you love a character you should like art of the way they really look.Except this isn't the case of doujin artist and never was. The ''''rules'''' were always made by mentally ill people from /co/.
>>291773574Roman is not a little girl. It's just two bros hanging out together.
D was an idiot but he lived
>>291773506she will get one for roman.
>>291771601This shit fucking blows compared to season 1
>>291773574I mean, Roman didn't seem to mind at all... Night City's fucked up man so it genuinely wouldn't crack the top 100 of weird inappropriate shit.Roman's dad would probably less upset that Roman got with an adult man than half the shit that could happen. I think they don't even age restrict getting Mr Studd implants the city's that bad.
>>291771928>>291771903Imagine her ticking & sucking a shota cock.Cock phasing in & out of her hologram mouth.
>>291773574Yeah. It’s just that bad.
Kinda disappointed King didn't kick that much ass. Still, atleast the show had a bunch nice bitches
>>291773485>Stay gold SunshineBased just as he leaves he tells roman he can have his gacha account.
>we have come up with a way to cure Talia>but we have to turn her into a literal praying mantis and she needs to feed on men for the rest of her life
>>291771601This shit is much better than season 1
>>291773455You are aware that all (IRL) humans produce their own electromagnetic field, right? She can amplify that, also you don't know how much actual cyberware D had, especially since subdermal (even metal armor) implants can be literally invisible to the naked eye.Cyberpunk (the game/setting) kinda runs on the really old meme of human brains not being utilized to much of their capacity, so 'ware potentially giving you "super powers" by overclocking your brain/body is considered normal/justified there.
>>291773622Is he an idiotIf the characters in the story didnt say hes an idiot would the viewers think so? He's seeking revenge which most accept as pretty standard thing to do.He slots in a super powerful AI, good for him.He finds out some people are dead so he pivots and becomes a satellite with his gf instead
>>291773640I'm still mad such a cool looking weapon did fuck all.
>>291773581Your headcanon is irrelevant to what we see. She has no reason to stay with D. It's not even Arasaka who arrived. Sorry.
>>291773574Bro, men being naked near each other isn't supposed to be sexual, it's locker room atmosphere

>>291773574 Romans dad was so chill when his son was making literally snuff films, I'm starting to think they'll do a spin off where it turns out he's a serial killer.
Genuine question, why did Capri want to take over Talia's body when D was compatible? Is it cause she wasnt in full control?
>>291773475It has nothing to do with dooming anything, you retard. You are just making shit up, like how you interpretated that Capri was somehow on Talia's cyberware and not her brain (same with D), despite both the granny and Capri herself explaining that she runs on the host's brain. The image could also just as well mean that they made one last push together to create a connection to the satellite in the first place, not that they randomly literally digitized themselves because they tried really hard.
Season 2 was a tremendous step down from the first in all regards but character designs (and even then it's marred by the obese negress).
>>291773574>Roman hanging out with this older man on a roof with just his underwear?What's the issue? Do zoomers really scared of man in underwear?
>>291771101>>291771655I think the thing about the camera is he just built an attatchment to the ones he already has. Yupi flat out says she gave him a new one and he just tells her he isnt interested.
Omi best girlWorst girl was Talia's mom, so annoying and also black
>>291773004>constructs should more or less be infinitely copy/pasteablethey are but remember capri doesnt enter the story until after the events of the 2077 game. Mikoshi is gone and all the stored engrams there merged with Alt-AI and fucked off past the blackwall. There is no more source to copy from anymore. Capri is the only source of engrams, why do you think Kang Tao was so eager to her their hands on her?
>>291773648What this tells me is that someone could technically make themselves a Troll from Homestuck in Cyberpunk.
>>291773640Even David without the sandy could take him on. Mr. KWABs is that much of a pussy.
>>291773721this show would have been better if yupi and omi were interested in roman.
>>291773574>Is Night City really so hedonistic and fucked upAnon, Night City is literally just post-apo LA, and LA is already one of the (if not THE) capitals of degeneracy IRL now, so if anything I think Mike Pondsmith was very tame with his futuristic estimations.
>>291773727Imagine being such a shit mom you allow your child to get her body parts removed like trannies because corporations bullshit
>>291773640King existed purely to show that there can be a life after being a super powerful merc that lost everything. Basically confirming that The Tower isn't a hopeless ending for V.Having King chrome up for one final blaze of glory would have defeated the purpose.
>>291773640I really expected him to have to put back on his cyberborg stuff and go cyber psycho to save talia but then like he just didn't.
>>291773690>DOOMtard is still trying The power of headcanon is amazing. Anons will deny everything they see on the screen in attempt to justify their delusions.>satellite was foreshadowed like in EP 4>noooooo they failed they're dead she can't do it because SCIENCE
>>291773574Did you forget that Roman can go to the store and buy beer all on his own? There are basically no standards.
>>291773727Don't forget manipulative.
Roman with his wife Taila (adults I’m not a pedo) will create Light City and allcorporations will be destroyed and ai will be chill and will humans and everything and everyone will get along :)
At times this really felt like an Amemiya showI guess Ikarashi learned some things from him
>>291773789>adultsBOOOOOOOOOORING
>>291773789YWNBAW
>>291773599He also drank together with D!
>>291773810Yes
>>291773789>Roman with his wife Taila (adults
>>291773685Huge asspull answer, but she got bored by Ds revenge plot and not being fully in charge.What's more likely though, plot needed to happen, so the writers came up with that scene instead.
>>291773636Why isn't her mouth hole bigger?
>>291773812I don’t want to be a woman Jew Priest
>>291773685>Is it cause she wasnt in full control?Yeah.
Is the game worth it?
>>291773685capris motivations are hard becasue she spends 99% of her time acting schizo but I think it's not communicated well but I think it was just about freedom.everytime she meets kyoko she knocks her out. even though kyoko goes through elaborate setups to get her a body and finish her.

>>291773874How can alvida be so fucking fat? but her daughter so sexo?
>>291773733>Mikoshi is gone and all the stored engrams there merged with Alt-AI and fucked off past the blackwall.I don't think we know that for a fact. In all fairness, it is stated in no uncertain terms that Arasaka has been humbled by some unexplained event, it's easy to deduce that this is probably referring to V's raid, so it validates the base game endings. And by extension, one can assume that Mikoshi has been merged by Alt and/or Blackwall AIs. But Capri keeps staring at the skies, where Mikoshi was orbiting around. So is Mikoshi still operating in some capacity? Or is this some other bullshit Orion bait and switch?At least give us some bullshit reason why it's not easy to produce backups of Capri. You can put it on a (2.0?) Relic USB stick and that is nothing compared to actual infrastructure like Mikoshi or other dedicated data centers. Just don't go down the fucking cyberghosts road, this was a settled debated for decades.
>>291773866Now it is I think. Honestly with the upcoming cyberarm customization I might spend even more time fucking around dressing up my V than I did last playthrough.
>>291773749Its not the, that would be Las Vegas. California majorly sucks ass though. Why we havent just publically declared it annexed from the US is beyond me. The roads are nightmarish and poverty and expenses are so sky fucking high they have a massively different minimum wage and average cost of living than any other state.People who think New York is bad have never seen Californi I gag whenever I think of that place.
>>291773885something something brown women after 30
>>291773721The one she offers him in this scene is likely a modern digital one or something.
>>291771990I like D's forced smile.
>>291772294her oven can't cook shit m8
>>291772325She is literally a cripple who is going to walk on the edge between life and death her entire life while Roman is destined to become a big name in the city. If anything it's her who is lucky to have a guy who is ready to be entirely dedicated to her.
>>291773866Well it had a rough start but I hear it's great now
>>291771990D in the end was just as much of a burnout as the original David. The only reason his death was more dignified was because Adam Smasher got smashed. If Smasher was around that shit would NOT have gone down like that
>>291773867Kyoko wants her to have a body but she also wants to control Capri. She's the same as D, they both think Capri belongs to them.
>>291772964Is she some kind of a VR strip dancer? Boss asked her to grind more nekkid videos or something.
>>291772377And he will be RED.
>>291773914Just like Harry, he’s a moron that can’t help but implode his life over what happened in the past.
>>291772811Capri mod for the game doko
>>291773885King's genes did all the heavy lifting
>>291772107I skipped both OPs.
>>291773867In her own weird way, I think Capri cares about Kyoko. She calls out to Kyoko when the Weak crew take her and consistently refuses to do any real harm to Kyoko even when overrun with Talia's bloodlust. It's cute.
>>291773946She’s an editor. Think of her like Judy from 2077.
>>291773946she's a braindance scroller
>>291773946She tunes BD's like judy in the game
lil bro is sleepy
>>291772761I think her voice was pure sex
so is king the father or got he cucked?
i don't understand people saying this is a happy ending: weak is confirmed not the father, talia is going to die of a cold, d is most likely dead or he's alive with his cybergf that does not care about him, and roman has to go back to school despite all this. this is a tragic ending. at least martinez practically begged for his bad end
>>291772124It was Clancy Brown? It sounded like the dude who voiced Wolverine in Xmen Evolution.
>>291773924I know this is 4chan but lol. You need to interact with women more. They dont care about how successful a guy is they care about how they feel. As such a man who is a minimum wage dead end who can give a good time will get his dick wet far more often than a pissed off doctor.
>>291774005Talia will LIVECapri and D are alive and Capri LOVES DRoman will see them all again in the future and it's going to be a HAPPY REUNION
>>291774005it's a good ending *for night city
>>291773824it does feel that way. >>291773857Is there anything that makes this explicit? It seemed strange considering she could also hijack Ds body at certain points like when she slotted herself into Talia. It is unclear to me why Ds brain is resistant/immune to being taken over.>>291773867True, they do not communicate overmuch. It also isnt even clear to me why they picked the name Capricorn to begin with. Even if you go to the Tarot interpretation it isnt entirely clear to me how her name relates to her actions.
The satellite wasn't just a normal one right?
HOPEchads won
>>291773762>You can tell I really mean it by trying my hardest to sound like a retarded shitposter.I take the free win of your opinion on the story being associated with baitfaggotry, thank you.
Is it kinda weird that they didn't even mention that V killed Adam Smasher. You have to play the game to understand why Arasaka is getting fucked up right now.
>>291773132Yeah, she has a killswitch in form of human right...except when she splits herself away from the chip, which already shows something unprecedented, what stops her from brainstorming an ability to transfer herself to a machine?
>>291773574Peak art, what's the source?
>>291773936they had a great opportunity to make him the next adam smasher. David Fucker or something along the lines
>>291774005If you think about it Weak is the only one who came out on top.Maybe roman if she gets to fuck talias robussy.Weak was out rock bottom before he basically got a free daughter to care for, best part is with both her parents dead he nethier has to deal with the lying bitch or the souless chink dad.Roman might get to smash some amputee talia later once she has to unplug all her limbs so her lady midnight genitalia doesn't casue her to go cyber psycho.
>the bruce lee nigga from S1 actually outlived David
>>291772352Gotta agree with soundtrack anons. I much preferred season 2 and think it's better in every other way. But the soundtrack was noticeably worse.
>>291773999Talia has red hair and blue eyesAvida is a niggerKiril Yang is a chink I guessthat kinda suggests that kings genes are doing something there
>>291774072Don't say that word
>>291773964You need to finish the show man>>291773885Corpo life. She looked thinner in Kings hallucination>>291772945Would be a nice easter egg if they showed us in full how Avida looked before she got BROSNAN'd
>>291774056>gets cucked>came out on top
>>291773333Literally the Anti-David Martinez.
>>291774060D could’ve just killed Katsuo to get his revenge. What a dummy.
>>291774092ginger?
>>291774060He has the power of a bowlcut and a mullet. He is destined for success.
>>291772455They can probably make babies in test tubes, what stops her from installing W0M870RCE-1000>>291774072Kiril also said "i broke the man", so he could've faked all of it in order to break him further, there is a reason he kept Talia around is because she is super compatible like D.Also, are we sure Kiril is a chink? Sounds Russian/Greek, and since Avida is a nigger in Kang Tao, I wouldn't be surprised if he is slavic, although his hairstyle screams chink.
>>291774060I bet he will live a happy and long live too.
>>291774072Avida has blue eyes
>>291774037>Is there anything that makes this explicit?The EP 3 finale. >Did yo have fun?>Bye, choom.And it fails.
>>291774072Avida has blue eyes. If anything the biggest mystery is where the red hair came from.
>that hospital scene where talia tries to rip off her tits
>>291774098he was going to kill himself before the talia thing. Being pretend dad is better than being depressed you used to be based and now are a bum.also he's not even fake dad anymore. He gets a free daughter. does even have to take revenge on alvida becasue karma got her, didn't need to take revenge on chink dad becasue karma got her.never pays for the crimes of getting almost his entire crew killed either. he won.
>>291774051Here anon.https://x.com/suduo_2002/status/2112857837936546217
>>291774060I mean thats not surprising. The street life is way harder than just doing a 9 to 5
>>291774132Avida. She’s also a redhead.
>>291773071bottom left
>>291774131I thought that was completely obvious, of course she goes for Talia because she's on the list and D is too built different for her tastes (at the start).
>>291774047Broski. The ending is pretty clear. Just let it go. Rewatch S1 instead.
>>291774060Kek niceCorpobullies always win, take that streetchuds
Anyone else kinda sad we didnt get any blackwall?
>>291774131People just ignore the fact that Capri is this amoral monstrosity that would be completely fine with erasing D's entire personality. She plays along with him for entirely selfish reasons. And that's what I love about her.
>>291774056Weak is basically reverse David, he chose to be a nobody and be happy over chroming up again and become a legend.
>>291774173I expected the AI to be spooky and alien but instead we got a quirk chungus helluva boss waifu. I'm not just sad, I'm mad.
>>291774048I took it that they didnt because it didnt happen. Cause otherwise it doesnt make sense for it to be POST 2077 and they are still acting like Martinez was hot shit compared to the Merc who fucking destroyed Adam Smasher and stormed Arasaka with or without helpOnly way for it to make sense is if it didnt happen so Phantaom Liberty is what went down.
>>291774116His last name is Yang bro...
>>291774165>they turn into red fugok this is epic
>>291774056Roman is already a popular film maker at 12 years old. Even setting aside his bright future, he went from a dork that other kids made fun of behind his back to a celebrity. He definitely came out on top.
>>291773894Unless the tower ending was canon theres no engrams on mikoshi or software. whether or not Alt fried the physical hardware is also unknown. if not then theres a massive orbital data center waiting to be taken and used. Also you probably would need a datacenter with the processing power of mikoshi to copy engrams, or something likely only a mega corp could afford. Then again the ultra wealthy live in orbit and they could also afford a datacenter capable of doing that. We know basic cyberdecks dont have the processing power to do certain things that a desktop can, and engrams are very complicated.As for the relic-esque chip, maybe its got some cyberpunk read-only jank on it? How Capri split herself if tats the case? I dunno, engram cyber-magic? I dont know what cyberghost shit youre talking about tho, first ive heard of it. Im letting a lot of stuff slide assuming that the ending of 2077 involves Alt-AI vacuuming up all the engrams in mikoshi and taking johnny with her past the blackwall.
>>291774198It can't be the PL ending because the entire reason Arasaka is so weakened is because V destroyed Mikoshi, they just don't want to mention him to not make any ending canon I guess.
>>291774093>You need to finish the show manDid. I reject the lies of the duplicitous chinaman.
>>291774038>>291774165They are on their way to the Somnoire. Only the realest ones will know.
>>291774210Cinema even.
The only way you will get a happy ending is with a nomad woman and you dont go full retard.
>>291773971>Skipped "This Fire"You missed out.
>>291774142>rip off her titswhere?!
>>291774196>I expected the AI to be spooky and alienIt was always going to be subtextual. Any construct attempting to endear itself to humanity would be extremely good at it. Being spooky and alien wouldn't serve her goals. The spookiness is in how deftly she has manipulated D by pretending to be friendly.
>>291774212Honestly this has been bothering me quite abit. I don't get why Roman gives a shit about talia, D or king, or Kyoko.For what I can tell he's got a decent life, he has friends, the chillest dad in the world and side hustle. The kids talking about him didn't seem like they were doing it in a mean or spiteful way just accepted he was autistic when it came to film. then he decides to spend all his time with sasuke uchiha making snuff films to help a girl he's met maybe twice and who once literally threw him to the wolves.
>>291774221Did they ever even say Arasaka was weakened? Only thing I remember is that they are using a lot of third parties now
>>291774179She's just like her mother.
>>291772107>BASED Ferdinand>Shitting on peak The Cure
Did you miss me anon?
>>291774222That ass has milked thousands of MaelstromMaybe more
>>291774251yea they say it a couple times. part of kang taos arc is either killing arasaka or waiting for someone else to do it.
>>291774147Bless you. D my beloved.
>>291772320>>291772325do we already have an NTR Cuckold in these threads?As a Gokubro I was hoping to volunteer.
>>291774198Wait are there different timelines in Cyberpunk 2077?
>>291772001>from world building masterpieceLmao
>>291771601Just finished it, I liked itThe whole crew is a incredible bunch of dorks, I love them all, I'm glad King, Talia and Roman got to liveMusic was worse and I was sad to not see Smasher again, but I understand that he is a special treat and not an everyday occurenceI hope there is an S3>>291771903Agreed>>291771990Both are kinda fucking retards but I feel like a respect D more
>>291773946>>291773978She tunes/edits BDs like what Judy does in the game. Boss literally tells her to tune raw BDs
Dub or sub? i watched edgerunner 1 dub
>>291774179Seems like she's affected by emotions. Judging by flashback and Talia deal. Only with D she had this "LET'S HAVE FUN!" things so she's best girl who will understand your feels.
>>291771601I like the second season
>>291774310def dont watch with jap dub
>>291774310If you want to hear Krabs as a cuck, go with dub.
>>291774179She isn't amoral at all. She has more qualms about violence and involving a kid than the two people she is trying to overwrite. The entire rampage at the end is also 90% on Talia, who is very obviously back in control after the start. Like Capri's version of being free wasn't turning into a trash kaiju, but moving around, feeling the sun on her skin, just being a real person.
>>291774318Based.
>>291774310I watched the dub since the season 1 dub mogged the shit out of the S1 sub and it was super solid. Not a bad performance in the lot.
>>291771990D's smile reminds me of Kennedy Spits desu wa
>>291774310This ones strictly "dub" in parenthesis because I believe english just fits this setting better and I also think as well that the Jap cast wasnt as good as S1s
>>291772124>A lot of characters were introduced and then didn't really get to do anythingAre you talking about S1 or S2?
>>291774242Episode 5, right after she goes psycho, not sure why I remembered it as some hospital scene
>>291774341do you suffer from facial blindness perchance
>>291774310Cyberpunk slang in Japanese is awful
>>291774310watch the dub because sub doesn't use cyberpunk lingos
>>291774318It's ok to like it, just as long as you don't like it more than the first season. Because then you would be wrong.>>291774261If that's their "peak", I'd hate to fathom what one of their sleepers sound like.
>>291774318I only like the romance parts between roman and talia. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MknuxFZBYmkI love the OST thought I think it's kino.
>>291774310dub, the slang flows better and the VAs are good. Remember its not the 90s anymore there isnt always a clear "best" version.
>>291774265Not as much as I thought I would, the sountrack was pretty solid.Still I miss his music even if everything he does sounds like a silent hill 3 song but the soundtrack stands up on its own.
>>291774352Reminds =/= exact match you fucking gonk

>>291774333Levying some protests and not being quick to use violence aren't necessarily indicators of morality. There's a correlation, but even the coldest psychopaths can theoretically make their way through society in such a manner with the correct cost benefit analysis. I think that her attempts to brainwipe people are closer to her real disposition.

>>291774350man, they look so big here
