It was mostly the start of season 1 and the last 3-4 episodes of season 2.
Felt like I was gonna throw up from the tension.
If they were trying to make their own NGE (I saw those nerv stickers) then they fucking nailed that feeling of pure anxiety like there's a black hole in your stomach.
But also fuuuck them for doing that.

That being said MIST a best.
And FUCK Maddie.

>>150395465
It's good

>>150395465
You had a strong emotional reaction so that's a good piece of media

>>150395465
yeah it was pretty brutal

>>150395465
Yeah it was an existential nightmare, but one of the better endings out there imo.
Such a shame basically no one knows this show exists since it got shicanned so hard by the higher ups.

>>150395465
MIST was such a fucking cunt

Its her fault that Caspian had to upload
Its her fault that Caspian almost died to Safe Search because she decided not to show up to the fight until the last possible second so she could keep Caspian as a pet for 20 years
She tried to illegally upload David, killing his organic body and risking permanent deletion for him

I'm glad she got cucked

I’m proud of you, OP. You’ve taken one small step towards growing up.

>>150396630
When did I say I didn't like it?
It's called a joke, grow up.

And I'd never had the feeling I was watching techbro propaganda before. But then I watched the second half of season 2.

>>150396830
how is it propaganda in any way?

>>150395465
It was me anon. I told you to watch Pantheon! Now go watch Lain, Vivy and Ghost in the Shell.

Well I watched Lain and GiTS decades ago already.
What the hell is vivy?

>>150396973
???
And?
You do know that's not the show's take on it, right?
You do realize it's fiction?
When the joker kills people it doesn't the writers are like "YES WE THINK KILLING PEOPLE IS GOOD ACTUALLY".
Please say sike right now, anon.

>>150396997
Maddie was giving ground on the negotiations before Safe Search attacked

She said that the remaining humans didn't think the UIs and Computer AIs were as valuable as living humans or the long ancient dead people, and once she proved that the negotiating committee all held those beliefs she was going to give up those ruins

>>150395465
i know it's gonna sound sarcastic or cringy but i actually legitimately clapped when it ended
like just genuinely
never felt like that before

>>150397097
And that was just one of an infinite amount of Maddies.
The one who then after that went on full psycho.
You know that right.

>>150396975

Vivy flourite eyes song.

and go watch lain again

>>150396997
>When the joker kills people it doesn't the writers are like "YES WE THINK KILLING PEOPLE IS GOOD ACTUALLY".
Because when the Joker kills people it means the writers are like "Look how evil and edgy we can make the Joker this time!" in a game of mutual one-upsmanship with other writers.

>>150397173
I'm gonna be honest with you chief, it looks like pure ass from a glance.
You're gonna need to sell me on that.

>>150397269
>a glance
Up your attention span. It's about an android singer trying to learn how to sing with real passion and prevent the machine uprising thanks to a time traveling helper bot. If you invest in it, it's a very emotional journey. If you don't, oh well.

Also watch Nier Automata and Ergo Proxy

>>150397345
>Up your attention span
I mean visually.

>android singer trying to learn how to sing with real passion
Okay not doing a great job so far.

>prevent the machine uprising thanks to a time traveling helper bot
Hmm, that sounds better but that first part I don't know.

>watch Nier Automata
No thanks, the anime was ass.
I played all the routes of the game and the og nier and drakengard already.

>Ergo Proxy
Also watched already.

>>150397399
>Hmm, that sounds better but that first part I don't know.
To each their own.

If you've also seen seen Eva then the only other anime I can recommend is Memories. Have you seen the Animatrix and Cyberpunk Edgerunners?

>>150397503
Yep saw all of those also.
I feel like it's almost guaranteed everyone interested in watching this and watching both seasons would have at least seen eva and lain and ghost in the shell.
And if they've already seen those then it's likely they've seen the others too since they intersect with their interests.
And yes I've seen texhnolyze also.

>>150397721
Impressive, very nice. There's a new anime out about androids running a hotel after humans went extinct on Earth. Check it out.

>>150395465
My only complaint is how many things got sidelined by the ending.

>caspian just beats him within like 3 (?) minutes of being uploaded easily

>everything built up with the black miss marvel i think joey was her name for multiple episodes

>dies in a throwaway fight like a retard

>laurie and her husband
>he gets one background scene where he paints and she's never brought up again

>maddie's cool fat girl friend
>never seen again after episode 1 of season 2

Sooo much shit just got dropped or resolved with a whimper despite feeling like they wanted you invested in it.
I mean maybe they planned to have more seasons but by like episode 3 of season 2 they were told that it's the final one and they had to rewrite the entire second half?
But yeah it just felt kind of unsatisfying.
The ending was cool though, just wish it didn't come at the cost of all that.

>>150397721
>>150397788
Throw in Zegapain.
Rewatched it before watching Pantheon and it felt like Pantheon was debating it at times. it's neat, don't let the first episodes fool you into thinking it's generic.

Pantheon was a rollercoaster for sure. I'll never understand why AMC didn't see the potential in airing it on actual TV rather than dumping it exclusively on their brand-new streaming service nobody knows about, but I'm glad the show released at all.

>>150398741
yeah which means when they started building the one, they knew the other would have to be over a historic site.

>>150398817
It was approved before they started building, they literally said that.
The humans went back on the deal after.

>>150399330
Or the government approved it without asking the local natives who rightfully said "what the fuck?"

They're presumably dead to something like Safe Search since the UIs call Caspian the Last of the Original Pantheon

ump

This show won't age well simply because the book was written before AIs became as advanced as they now are so the author thought his story would be more plausible if he used brain scans of people instead of purely synthetic intelligence.

>>150403809
Well, time will tell... but when the “AI” hype train runs out and people have realized that LLMs are pretty useless except for some few (very limited) use cases, the topic of UI may become interesting again.

>>150397399
Terminator Zero was actually good. Watch it or don't.

>>150397399
Check out Good Night World. It has a false premise in the first episode and the rest of the series will build your anxiety. It has the same themes as of Eva and Lain.

It really feels they were told they only had one more season when they already started working on S2 and decided to fast forward to the end rather than be left on a cliffhanger.
Really felt like they needed 2-3 more seasons to breathe.

the fact that it's cloning and not transference totally breaks the ending, it worked at first with a few people who were unwilling uploads or already on the way out, but billions of people would not kill themselves like that lmfao

>>150407556
oh sweet summer child
yes yes they would, people are retarded and don't understand the difference
go play soma, simon is the average person

I didn't really understand the twist at the end.
So the safe surf was sent off into space in the original timeline and became omnipotent and then hijacked one of Maddie's simulations to cause her to start making the simulations in the first place to become a god?
So she could join them?
Was that it?
But then wasn't the world where she found that answer also a simulation ran by another Maddie?

>>150407556
>>150407563
The problem is that the antagonists from the final 2 episodes are treated like a lol hate group when they could have a valid point of opening mankind's eyes to unwilling mass suicide that creates electronic clones

But Maggie says "they are real because they believe they are real" about her simulated people, so the show was inherently against going the dogma of affirming beliefs about own existence (or gender)

>>150407802
I mean they are real, we literally spent whole of season 1 with David proving that.
They are just as real of a life as any other.

>>150395465
How many worlds do you think the god maddie made that were just her having sex with caspian

>>150398045
I, on the other hand, wish to be her, like a fucking troon

>>150407858
They sure are real, but the flesh and blood David is dead.
They are electronic clones. After S1, they just dropped any questions about that, despite the villains wanting to extend their own lives.

But their consciousness won't be uploaded. David's consciousness was lost when he died. S1 Ui David's consciousness was also lost when he died in S1. David's copy from S2 was just another separate consciousness that was a copy of the original.

I can agree they are real and conscious, but their birth requires for the original consciousness to be sacreficed in the process. And the last 2 episodes drop the ball on that and Meggie only objects against uploading because it makes pain eternal, not because it will kill her son

>>150408312
Who the fuck are Maggie and Meggie?
Also no she didn't want to upload because it would make the paint eternal for herself, she didn't want her son to upload because he would die, she was conflicted on it.
But she came to realize that it's inevitable and she's only causing him pain by not letting him do it.

>>150408322
The big reveal of her motive against her son's upload was that she didn't think her son would be no loner real, but she thought he would forever suffer from his losses and mistakes.

Again, the lol hate group never made the argumen that UI requires suicides to be born, which would make a compelling ethical conflict. The show doesn't question anymore the loss of original consciousness and its implications, post S1. Everyone acts like UIs are extensions of original consciousness, including the people who want to live forever or hate UIs themselves.

The show is good, best SF and story cartoon there is, but it has its shortcomings. Possibly due to limited amount of seasons.

>>150408360
>The big reveal of her motive against her son's upload was that she didn't think her son would be no loner real, but she thought he would forever suffer from his losses and mistakes.
No, it was because she was traumatized by losing both Caspian and her dad to upload where they had no other choice.

>Again, the lol hate group never made the argumen that UI requires suicides to be born, which would make a compelling ethical conflict.

Again, that's just how people think.

but people also don't want to admit a 15 year old girl would have a crush on an older guy

the natives were cool with it, the govt just reneged on the deal to spite the UI/CI this is stated very blatantly in the episode

>>150409619
>Nah it's just the complete lack of marketing and anyone knowing the show exists
It's a Sci Fi show with abstract concepts. People, especially young people aren't going to like it because of the various real world references that will fly over there head yet the characters in the story point out those references making the general audience feel dumb. Shit like Phineas Gage is not something the average person knows about these days. Add in the only solid romance in between a fifteen-year-old girl and a "grown man" and that's poison for meaningful discussion. Even though Caspian is an emotionally stunted clone that never initiated romantic nor sexual encounters. it was all Maddie.
