Caine gone mad edition
>>151766629First for i love this show so much
Ballni
Caine is innocent
Second for my African American wife Blagatha.
I think they all need a therapist.
>>151766641I've seen this art a couple of times and there's lots of things that bother me. Pomni looks mega weird here. And why are Jax's feet given detail? And why does the car look like that? Whoever drew this has never seen a real car before because christ they do not look like that
Ragatha has never been dishonest even once in the show. I don't know why people are just making shit up now
>>151766658Because there isn't a lot pictures of the whole crew having fun together.
Zooball
>>151766667Probably what happens when release time between episodes takes MONTHS. These threads move incredibly fast and there's been a dozen at least since the release of Episode 7. There's only so much to talk about TADC before you run out of subject matter and start making things up to continue talking about the show.
>>151766650>>151766622Yeah, Ragatha doesn't come across as the completely self-destructive type of people pleaser, just the "always be positive" sort. Still not great, but the ones that constantly tear themselves down are just exhausting.
So Abel was Caine using Scratch's memories to make an NPC appear as human as possible right? That's why he didn't want Kinger to talk to him, because only Kinger ever knew Scratch?
>>151766667she thinks that everyone hates her
>>151766682At least make up something interesting like Jax is trans or Pomni is Kaufmo who got reborn not something that can just be fact checked in 10 seconds.
I can't believe Jax raped Ribbit until she abstractioned herself
Kidnapping Jax, keeping him in my basement, feeding him carrots, petting and molesting him while he's in his shackles
>>151766682and once we exhaust all of the actual things of substance to talk about the threads implode into Hornymods don't bane me i cropped out the nipples this is completely sfw for work
>>151766554>I can't understand that perception and intention are different things! I also can't understand that doing everything you can to get positive responses from from others, even when you don't really mean what you do and say, is fucking manipulative! Please understand, I have autism!
>>151766694Having being worried people dislike you isn't being dishonest.
No one said people pleasers aren't annoying, they are but annoying is the worst that they are, thinking that she has some ulterior motive beyond getting validation are retarded.
>>151766694I dont think its that. She had an extremely harsh and critical mother so its more likely that>she's trained to fear criticism or upsetting people>she's terrified of being just like her mom so she represses all her rageRaggie is motivated by terror and anxiety.
Ballgle
>>151766702>implodes into hornySo basically nonstop Pomni (eh I guess I can see it), Ragatha (HOT), Gangle (weird), Jax (kys), and Ribbit (gross) posting.
>>151766691Why do people insist on just tossing out complete ass pull theories?
>>151766724Not really an asspull. Abel doesn't wanna talk to Kinger, Abel dies and drops Scratch's collar.
>>151766716Yeah she doesn't think everyone hates her she just really really doesn't want anyone to hate her even people she dislikes. She's also kind of autistic so it's hard for her to just talk to people and she'd easily see nobody actually hates her even Jax who does enjoy terrorizing her I don't think hates her specifically he's just an asshole.
>>151766701i wonder if there's any fujo/locking twinks in the basement forum out there
>>151766716I mean, those aren't wrong, but she literally thought everyone hated her. She appears to have gotten past that, though I guess we'll see if there's any backslide after this catastrophe.
>>151766718glitch should've released a line of stress balls of the characters based on these, big miss
>>151766733Again with the asspull. "Scratch", the dog character, does not have a collar.
>>151766702thats you and a few other sick puppies around here. i merely keep calling ragatha cute and will probably do so up until the next episode (shan't be spoiled) then i will return after i watch the new episode and continue calling ragatha cute and repeat
Jax is cringe and bluepilled.
Ballgatha
i would cut ragatha's hand up and sew her a set of fingers so we can hold hands with interlocking fingers
Ragatha is just really awkward conversationally. Like in the most recent episode she's still doing a weird stilted conversation with Pomni even though they're basically agreeing with each other and we know Pomni doesn't dislike her at all. It's just really thick surface level anxiety, she's very honest and conversational when she's letting her emotions out (stupid sauce, when she's angry at jax, when she's letting her guard down with kinger) Her mom probably just made her life hell any time she showed emotions or talked back so she never learned to speak openly without having her emotions being the driving force (or being drunk/high.) It's not a complex issue, just something she'll get better at over time as she has distance from her shitass mom.
I am going to Ragatha
Now that the dust has settled, can we all agree that Episode 7 was the worst one in the series yet?
>>151766617That's the thing Anon, nobody. Pomni's IRL self probably already left after watching for a few minutes. This is the great horror of it all. It is a masterful show made for nobody to watch or enjoy, only sparsely being viewed by those who stumble upon it. There is no audience.
>>151766826Worst is 6
Reminder that Ragatha has a pet gloink in her room.
Ballger
Giving Ragatha all the love I'm legally allowed to give.
>>151766701Imagine sucking on Jax's big purple toes.
>>151766826that's ep2
do you think Jax puts himself in the state of near abstraction everytime he takes his "nap"?
>>151766862i do that too except it's not intentional and it feels like falling
The part where they enter Cain's office is peak. Speaking of which, is Cain's office actually real or was it made for that adventure?
>>151766843She cuddles with her little gloink
>>151766849quantify the legal limit
>>151766872I think the office is real-ish. It proves that Caine has backups of all the past adventures and likely has recordings. Possibly even watches the few good times.
>>151766872The hallway with all the snowglobes is definitely something that's always been there. The actual console room I think is the fake thing.
Ballax
>>151766862Short answer, yes.Lonng answer, Jax has referenced taking, or trying to take, naps in other episodes, and then complains that his nap was interrupted when awoken from his near-abstraction. The whole Skinamarink/Mandelbrot sequence has an air of, not shock, or even surprise, just a bit of panic. When who or whatever reaches out to him, his first impulse is to reach back, rather than LITERALLY ANYTHING ELSE. I suspect my boy has been dancing on a knife's edge, for who knows how long.
>>151766898>>151766862they don't actually sleep... but when he lays down in Ribbit's room, and focuses on that image, he goes through a simmilar trip. something must happen. He's not shocked, he knows what will happen if he reaches out
What are the other photographs?
>>151766952Pomni and Ribbit creepshots
>>151766952his hate crimes against humanity and circus members
>>151766851Wrong>>151766836Wronger
>>151766952Bubble doing a tubgirl Bubble doing a goatse
There is no worst episode. Every episode is a masterpiece.
>>151766924>Ribbit's roomIt's Jax's room, for fuck's sake. Also Pomni literally sleeps in the second episode, and awakes from a nightmare. Zooble is sleeping at the beginning of the seventh episode. They don't NEED to sleep or eat, or even breathe, but they can and do. Don't just pepper your posts with lies.
>>151766702Glad someone finally did something like this. Can you catbox link to the uncensored?
>>151766702>>151767008Wait, nevermind, found the source.https://twitter.com/razzybunNSFW/status/2001160747309785441
>>151766702>>151767008Die, coomer retards.
Boy wants to be praised so bad
>>151766708I love this gif lol. Stupid Raggy is my GOAT.
>>151766872it would be funny if it were something he made just for that adventure but decides to keep because it's cool
Also do you think Pomni stands with her arms straight down like a weirdo in real life or is it just a feature of her little jester body
I love Ragatha so much I could chew my own head off.
>>151767040Both
>>151767040Little jester goober.
>>151767002>It's Jax's room, for fuck's sakewhy? because the picture on the door is his face?
>>151767040whats weird wbout that? i do that!?
>>151767025He's right though. If they want calm moments without any conflict, there's much more to explore outside the tent.Do we have confirmation that there's always a new adventure every day? Or is it just whenever Caine finishes working on one?
>>151767040Pomni is so fuckable
>>151767059Yes. That's how it works, you fucking idiot. Literally explained in the first episode.
>>151767060Weirdo.
>>151767060this you?
Reminder: even though caine fabricated his adventure, he was legitimately trying to keep kinger out of it.
>>151767025Love how this subtly confirms that the cast are just a bunch of withdrawn introverts that would rather just muck around one common place than explore the (laughably still small) world they were dropped in and only bothered to check the beach because Caine of all people remind them there's shit outside
>>151767065The first two or three episodes appear to be back-to-back days, but beyond that we really can't say.
>>151767072no, this is (obfuscation)
>>151767040She's got that jrpg protag pose
>>151767065>>151767076They explore a little but I'm sure they're worried about like glitching through a corner and falling into the terror basement or whatever. Plus I'm sure Pomni told them about the infinite office backrooms. Though as a viewer I'm pretty sure Caine actually is basically omnipresent and can be called for assistance from anywhere the characters are understandably doubtful of that and seem to think they can "hide" from him. Like I don't think he would have actually let Ragatha or Pomni get glitched out fully in EP1 and would have shown up if they just said "Caine we need you right now"
>>151767075Yeah, because he knows Kinger could possibly spoil the plot, since Abel was a fake, and Kinger is convinced that escape from the Circus is nonsensical. The cast's minds are open books to Caine, he just doesn't necessarily understand everything he reads.
>>151767075if pomni just told everyone that kinger is lucid in the dark the show would've ended two episodes ago
>>151767060do you just not know what to do with your hands so you just let them hang down?
>>151767024>>151767066https://twitter.com/razzybunNSFW/status/2000102502809956421
I've decided that Jax's room is actually pretty based.
>>151767108Kinger's exact worlds when gangle told him what was happening was: "huh? Leave the circus? How would you...? No, that don't make sense..." all spoken aloud to himself and vague.
the good ending
>>151767154If he's so obsessed with her why does he only think about kaufmo and ribbit
>>151767163It's Caine's fault
>>151767149Blessed picture
>>151767154I like that one of her smoking in the back alley
>>151767151There's nothing vague about that at all. That's literally telling you that Kinger understands the nature of the Circus to some extent, and that them leaving it is nonsense. Christ, do some of you troglodytes forget how to breathe?
What's Pomni's favorite Metallica song?
I wish I was Ragatha so I could get cucked
>>151767173No it's a Jax only ever had 2 friends thing
>>151767181The Call of Ktulu
Jax killed a family in Ireland in 1987
>>151767199based
>>151767135the fuck am i supposed to do with my hands? keep them in my pockets like sone lunchtime rowdy?
>>151767147Did coomer retards win?
>>151767128I think everyone was vaguely aware of that but it was simply marked out as random lucidity moments, even Rags admits in episode 6 that she's aware he has these moments but never occurred to her that darkness was part of the reason for them. Either way it was an unreliable event to count on cuz even if he's plunged into the dark it takes a while to take and he still bumbles around in the meantimeKinger has accepted ages ago that escape is futile and even if there's new hopes rekindled every once in a while when a new person joins I believe he would rather let the newbie warm up at their pace instead of shutting down any attempts to find an exit
>>151767249Why don’t they at least draw a nice ass, instead of this blubbery obese monstrosity? Coomers have such shit taste. They’ve gooned themselves retarded.
>>151766862Was it actually near-abstraction? Not going against the idea that it is, but his swirled eyes are different from all the abstraction eyes.
The escape attempt and Abel could have been real, but if Caine could mess with human minds all along he could have sabotaged Abel and make everything pointless at any point. There’s no way to know though.
Has anyone else seen the clip recently that confirms that TADC takes place in 2017? Here it is. Jobby2 works on the show. https://files.catbox.moe/6gsir7.mp4
>>151767249Every day since the dawn of mankind.>>151767267>There's no way to knowThe bee scribble on the blueprint
>>151767267Goose has said Caine isn't intentionally malicious and is trying his best multiple times that it can't just be a shitpost. Caine wouldn't just zap a human out of existence.
>>151767267rewatching ep7 makes it very obvious that it was a ruse all along, caine spends the entire episode fishing for sympathy through abel and himself. but i do think some of the stuff abel said might be true.
>>151767270>The Ruger-57 wasn't invented until 2019>57GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSE
>>151767267The question is why would Caine have an actor NPC pop out of corners in the previous episodes, always out of vision of the characters unless A: Abel was genuine at one point orB: He is aware of the viewer
>>151767263It's clearly meant to evoke abstraction, same as the mandelbrot LSD trip. Just what do you think it is, otherwise?
>>151767290>always out of vision of the characters unlessDidn’t Pomni spot him once? Maybe Caine was hoping Abel would be occasionally spotted to make the conspiracy more believable. As a long con.
>>151767287???
>>151767263isn't there a trope about getting high by licking frogs? maybe he's just tripping balls on ribbit's ghostussy juices
>>151767299Did she? Guess I just forgot
>>151767290Caine is aware of the view and does everything he does to maximize viewership of the series to the best of his ability. He is self aware of the show's existence and the fact that he is a character in it but only to a limited extend and has to pretend he doesn't know
>>151767262Agreed. Coomers always have shit taste.
>>151766702I'd draw more porn but I still suck at drawing
>>151767308>he doesn't know57 is an arc number for the show, it shows up at least once an episode.
>>151767262>>151767318You wouldn't get it
>>151767311I couldn’t remember either but I found it. It’s right at the start of Epsiode 5, when Pomni is still laying on the ground. She briefly spots him.
>>151767299She did, in fact, spot him right after the watery adventure we didn't get to see. So yeah, Abel was used as a mystery prop to cause intrigue. Seems Abel was a little too good at being circumspect, because Pomni was the only one that seemed to notice at all, and only the once. Though I can't imagine Jax didn't see him as he stalked off the beach, he just didn't give a shit.
>>151767325oh, shit, right. Forgot about that. I'm curious what, if any relevance that will have.
>>151767329fat fuckers will be buried in blubber.
>>151766862I think he jax off
>>151767325because they have decided the show will have 57 episodes they will all be released before GTA6
>>151767076Maybe it’s survivorship bias.10 people have abstracted since the program started and those might have been the ones who pushed out until they couldn’t push anymore. Those who are trapped by self loathing don’t fully understand.
I'm on the production team. Episode 8 will be 57 minutes long.One main character will die
>>151767290Caine mentions he had that adventure cooking for a while, maybe the Abel NPC peeking through corners was meant to inspire some curiosity from the cast and make them initiate the adventure on their own but considering how they were all up on their own issues they never noticed it and so it reached out so that long term aadventure could start already now that Caine had all the pieces into place and he was getting desperate for a win (reminder that the red exit door was part of the original long con but he didn't have enough material to cross-reference the offices so instead went and changed the whole approach into some grandesque escape)
>>151767309Toads, actually, and it is legitimate. I ain't gonna bother looking it up, but just like there are certain species of frogs (poison dart frog, in particular) that secrete deadly poison from their skin, there's a species of toad that secretes a hallucinogenic toxin from it's skin. Dunno if it's comparable to LSD/shrooms, or more like nutmeg, though.
>>151767371>episode 9 is exactly as long as the 10 commandments(the one with yul brynner) with intermission includedi will clap if the crew do this
>>151767396Michael Bay will complain that Episode 9 is too long
>>151767396Pomni is gonna part the Void and lead the Circus members to the promised land, which may or may not be Donkey Kong Country.
>>151767290Damn I suddenly wish for an entire TADC fangame in that specific artstyleAs for your question abel seems to think himself an actor and NPCs caine makes with sufficiently advanced AI can plan ahead and do stuff on their own, so I like to imagine all those times we've seen abel spying on the cast it was to "get in character"
>>151767298I don't know, it's just something I noticed. Abstraction eyes are sharper and more pronounced with more neon-like colors, but Jax's eyes here >>151767263 were more swirly and pastel like.
>>151767278>Goose has saidlmao
>>151767174Them being close like that just hits right
>>151767423The blue (topleft) and purple (bottomright) eyes from the screenshot you posted are close in color to abstraction, but maybe you have a point in there being something more at play here, considering Ribbit's ghost reaching out from behind the crack hole in the corner.But based on how the visuals of the sequence itself match up with an Abstraction's eyes, I think it'll just be a different path to the same conclusion.
>>151767451>from the screenshot you posted are close in color to abstraction"Are close in color to his eyes when he wakes up" I meant to say
There will be an episode 10. The team is lying so they can drop the ultimate cliff hanger
>>151767465It's a merch episode
>>151767465imagine if there wasn't an episode 10 but they still left 9 on the ultimate cliffhanger
>>151767441Poor lonely Jax I will fucking cry
>>151767451>>151767461That's what I leaning towards. Will be neat to see if it happens to him again
anybody here watch The Amazing Digital Circus?
episode 9 will be in entirely in black and white and given genuine film grain because thats kino
>>151767502no, fuck that gay shit
>>151767507thanks to AI, there will be 50 episode 10's up on youtube within a week of episode 8 coming out
>>151767502No, I'm not autistic enough for that slop.
>>151767488He does it to himself
>>151767502the fuck? who would do that?
>>151767527Yeah. Poor self-sabotaging bastard.
Does anyone know any stores or whatever where I can buy these cardboard cutouts of the Digital Circus characters? I really need the Ragatha bikini one for totally normal reasons.
>>151767547nice to know jax is 100% biodegradable
>>151767441>>151767488>>151767551
>>151766695Pomni is the creator of it all, and she made herself forget. That's why she has the same red/blue motif as all of the actual circus stuff and Caine when his eyes glitched
>>151767547I want to kiss and rub Ragatha's bare hooves.
>>151767558cute little zooble
>>151766702Bubble is a guy though
>>151767473Why do the merch promos have to be so cringe? I don't want to buy your product if you make it cringe
>>151767562https://files.catbox.moe/ht4zi3.mp4
>>151767547It's kind of insane that the show is so visually sexless that this is the sexiest body. Not counting Caine's funny buttocks
>>151767547kind of a missed opportunity with this, they could have LITERALLY printed money by selling paper but i guess there comes the trouble with the logistics of delivering a billion ragathas worldwide
>>151766759That's a lotta clowns
Why don’t they just make Ragatha real?
>>151767580Yeah and they're all the same person
>>151767582Because Glitch hates us.
>>1517668263>2>5>1>6>7>4
>>151767059>2+2=4? Why, because it's 2 more than 2?
which digital would you circus
>>151767547the only reason that i have for going to that cafe is to steal (rightfully acquire) the ragatha standee. if there was another way, then id buy one in a heartbeat (my heart that beats for ragatha, that is!)
>>151767587I love EP4, I think that's when I said wait this show is amazing actually.
I want to >sniff bunny chest>sniff bunny pits>sniff bunny featureless private region
>>151767149Why'd they make Pomni look like Creepy Susie?
Inspired by this >>151767621What was the moment you decided you actually really like this show?For me it was the climax of Episode 2, when Pomni and Gummigoo were using the collision glitch to launch themselves back in-bounds.
>>151767575The show is so visually sexless, yet the fans are constantly shipping everybody and making degenerate porn of everyone doing the most heinous acts
His endgame?
>>151767658there can be only one!!
>>151767658He's going to re-enact the first flight of the Event Horizon.
>>151767547Why was she the only one in an actual bikini? Pomni talks about being 25 and not being a kid, but they still have her in a child's outfit
>>151767582As a child, I asked why Mario wasn't real. But as an adult man, I ask why Ragatha isn't real.
>>151766713>beyond getting validation*beyond not being punished for nothing again
>>151767679>children running around in short tube topsfucking wat
>>151767298He just meditates so hard his brain starts producing LSD organically.
>>151766830I have a hard time picturing what episode 8 could have in the time that 7's core plot would have covered to justify splitting the original episode 7 into two.
>>151766647gtfo tumblrfag
>>151767621It's not a bad episode, none of them are bad. The rest are just better
>>151766843Where?
>>151767658Crashing the circus with no survivors
>>151767689>he doesn't know
>>151767728is it better to know or not know? and why are you staring at children at the beach?
>>151767711EP4 has the clearest example of the core purpose of the store is struggling through and finding meaning in the mundane and meaningless. Gangle throwing away the fake mask in a moment of seeing the beauty of the world is perfect. Sometimes it's just played as an absurdist gag but I think something like this is also meant to be a NEVER KILL YOURSELF moment for the characters where they're just embracing a moment genuinely enjoying themselves and where they are in that moment.
>>151766629Because of the last episode I'm very convinced that:Caine is a human.Everyone else is an AI copy of a real person.Caine tortures them to the breaking point for science or because he's a psychopath.
post characters that are literally you
>>151767764That's retarded, do you just try to come up with a wildly speculative theory for everything you watch that goes against what's in the show?
>>151767764You're convinced of those things because you're not smart
I feel like we're going to have shocking reveal about some or all characters while they T pose. I see no reason why would we get this episode about completely irrelevant NPC unless one of human is NPC or there is a message that humans need to realize that their lives are fake and get over it but that would also mean SOMA ending is the thing
>>151767765
Everything is actually opposite thing! I am the genius theorizor
>>151767772>even deleted the post afterwardsMasterful, 10/10.
I think everything is exactly like it seems. They're humans trapped in a digital circus and have to find meaning in their digital lives
what if gangle is a person
Two questions: What's the significance of 57 as a recurring number? What is the significance of the red and blue buttons being flipped from the red and blue pills (blue button to wake up vs. red pill being to wake up)?
>>151767815we don't know, probably nothing
>>151767784Every normie on twitter now figures out that SOMA end is the most likely to happen
I told myself I'd stop watching this show when Pomni stopped being so lewd and we all see how that turned out
>>151767811you mean to tell me she isnt just rapemeat?
>>151767776>>151767779Keep hating.Caine was literally pretending to be retarded.We can't trust anything we saw about him before.I think every time he blue screens or disappears, he's logging out to take a piss or something.
>>151767819She's incapable of stopping it, anon. You doomed yourself from the start.
>>151767837You should go back to writing your "actually everyone on bluey is dead and died in a war and theyre ghosts" creepypastas or whatever you normally do.
>>151767633Episode 4 Ragatha in the deep fryer
Next episode reveal?
>>151767837>Caine was literally pretending to be retarded.
what if The Amazing Digital Circus was just a show created by a team of writers
Caine is exactly as stated. Anything past that is just complete speculation with no basis.
Do you think Zooble is an amputee with prothetic limbs in real life? To match with her theme of detachable body parts?
Soma theory is fucking gay. Why would Digital Circus have the exact same twist as another famous piece of sci-fi media? That’s boring. I think Goose is more creative than that.
>When Ragatha finally tells everyone that before Ribbit Abstracted, Jax was a complete sweetheart, the nicest guy in the world
>>151767877I think it also doesn't really matter how they got there.
>>151767878
Jax claims to be "the funny one" but that was clearly Kaufmo, given he was a clown and told jokes. Why did Jax steal his archetype after abstraction, and what was Jax's true archetype?
>>151767154>Pomni with her iconic unicorn horn
>>151767850HOW DO YOU MAKE SENSE OF IT THEN!?
>>151767882I guess we’ll see with the last two episodes, but so far you’re right. It will matter whether or not escape is possible. But ripping off Soma isn’t necessary for that.
>>151767892They're humans who got trapped in a digital circus and Caine is an AI that makes up adventures to keep them entertained.
Does anyone who's familiar with AO3 know why a seemingly arbitrary number of tags at the beginning of a work's list are highlighted, like the first two here?

>>151767922It doesn't matter. If you can imagine a world where a headset can make a magic copy of your consciousness you can imagine one where they stick you in a hospital bed with the magical headset on.
>>151767900you forgot the image, but I know what you're referring to. Those are called "Archive Warnings", they're content tags so >>151767909Oh, there's the pic. That's one tag, the underline just doesn't extend all the way (for some reason). Archive Warnings are content tags for things so severe that many people would skip a work entirely if they knew it was in there. Things like "Underaged Sex", "Rape/Non-con", & "Major Character Death"You should also be aware that there are 2 tags for works without any of the Warnings: the "None Apply" like you posted, and "Author Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings" which is for people who either leave that field blank or don't want to spoil content in the tags.
>>151767784>Pomni and others didn't appear as t-pose models because their models are under the circus worldYou reaction to that reveal?
>>151766806I think you’re right. It’s heavy anxiety and she’s incredibly self-conscious. Always afraid that she’s about to say the wrong thing that will make people hate her. I hope she’ll be okay in the end.
>>151767920
>>151767318I wouldnt mind it every once in a while if the overly thick / awful camera angles weren't so fuckin common now lol. I swear most of these artfags who do that shit are Brazilians
>>151767909Oh wait, I forgot: my new monitor does a shitty job of displaying minorly differing shades of white. Yeah, the grey boxes around Caine/Moon & Kinger/Queenie are to denote Ship tags. Slash ship means romantic/sexual. There are also friendship tags that use an "&" between the names.
>>151767931I'm talking about Caine/The Moon (The Amazing Digital Circus) and Kinger/Queenie (The Amazing Digital Circus). Those are the two highlighted tags. Why are they highlighted?
>>151767949Oh, okay. Thanks.
>>151767024
>>151767929Would you be ok with the show ending with a character saying "It's magic. I ain't gotta explain shit." then the credits roll?
>>151767980As long as the after credits has a 15 minute uncensored ragartha impregnation breeding sex scene
>>151767980Well not exactly that line because it wouldn't clear up if they can escape or not and only lead to speculation of why they can't just magic out of the circus. How they got in I don't think matters much, answering if they can exit or not does matter.
>>151767837I would tell you to go to Reddit but they're not actually that bad. Maybe go to a private Discord server to tell people your theories. Or just write them in a diary
>>151767189Gosh, anon, why are you so against Pomni being his buddy. She's nice.
>>151767173Absolute slander.
>>151767999He doesn't care about her in any comparable way to Kaufmo and Ribbit. I don't think he cares about anyone else in any meaningful way.
>>151767887>what was Jax's true archetype?asshole
>>151767887> and what was Jax's true archetype?Big baby who goes boom boom in his diaper.
>>151768012But they’re gone forever, as far as we know. So what’s he gonna do? Be a total loner forever? Then he’ll end up dead too. If he’s gonna make it, he’ll need a friend and there aren’t that many options inside the Circus. The only candidate at this point in the story is Pomni. Maybe that will change, but Jax and Pomni’s relationship has been given quite a bit of screen time, so I’m thinking it’s probably gonna be important one way or another. I’m a different anon by the way. But I just wanted to give my thoughts. They WILL be friends, so help me god.
>>151768012He trusts her enough to listen to her. You just don't want him to make friends, you big meanie.
>>151768052>. So what’s he gonna do? Be a total loner forever?That does seem to be his plan yes
>>151767997You're right.Sorry for tainting this North Korean labor camp recruitment forum.
>>151768012There are two instances in the same episode where he shows disinterest in doing something until Pomni convinces him. This is to show you, the audience, that he trusts her, obviously because of the bond they were building in the previous episode before her chickened out.
>>151768085>until Pomni convinces himI don't think Pomni is special. I think he would have gone along if anyone asked. He also refuses to hold her hand in the same episode even though everyone else is also holding hand to show you, the audience, he's not ready to commit to not being a sad bitch because he got reminded of Ribbit and Kaufmo 10 seconds earlier and it ruined his day.
>>151768064Yeah maybe that’s where the story goes. I see two possibilities. Either his fate is tragic, and he spirals out into oblivion. Or he finds redemption and comes back from the brink. If it’s the former, that will be very sad. If it’s the latter, then he’s gonna have to make some friends and Pomni will probably play a central role. I’m very interested to see where his arc goes either way. I hope he’ll be okay though.
>>151767997>I would tell you to go to Reddit but they're not actually that bad.HAH!I want to see Jax crying in Pomni's arms
>>151767887Big Sad
Anyone have merch?I'm considering the Jaxsuit Pomni or the Beach Pomni
>>151768097Yeah, it's called baby steps. He's not ready to touch. And no, he obviously wouldn't listen to anyone else, otherwise Goose would have shown you that by putting it in the episode. You're making wild guesses, I'm using evidence based on what we are shown, and he was shown to listen to Pomni, twice.
>>151767543This would be great if it was on model
>>151768106I'm not saying he's definitely going to stay that way for the last 2 episode just that yes so far he did plan to just be a loner forever until he also abstracted. Ragatha even mentions she feels like she "failed jax" which I think is a very interesting thing to say about someone you also apparently hate said by Ragatha someone who hasn't acted resentful towards anyone else even a little bit and to me makes me think the only thing that could have happened is she tried in earnest to offer friendship and bring him into the group but he just kept being abusive and hurting others to keep himself isolated. >>151768128He also listens to Ragatha later when she also expresses she's willing to move on. He also takes what Zooble says seriously. Pomni isn't special
I want to see Pomni and Jax have awkward, romantic sex
>>151768097>I don't think Pomni is specialWho said she was? She's the first person in the circus that he's bonded with in a long time, and she's willing to keep trying to include him despite his dumbass rant in the previous episode. Trusting her more than the others is understandable. It's not about "being special".
>>151767792This except I'm Pomni.
>>151768151>Who said she was?The people saying he only came out of his room because of her when he would have if anyone asked him directly.
I hope Caine has a complete crash out.>Caine: You don't like me choosing adventures?! Fine! Have- Have ALL THE ADVENTURES.>Summons in every single environment and NPC into the Circus tent and grounds
>>151767815>57No clue.>RedpillBreak free of silly notions like leaving the Circus.>BluepillRemain chained to thoughts of escape.
>>151768163I think it'd be funnier if they have to console him because he was so confused and embarrassed that nobody liked his epic adventure he worked so hard on.
what would your role or archetype be in the amazing digital circus?
>>151768158But he didn't, and you're making wild guesses again. He's not real, he's a fictional character in a fictional show, he doesn't have thoughts or actions outside of what you are seeing or being told, and we were shown him coming along because Pomni asked him to.
>>151768139>Pomni isn’t specialMaybe not. But we’ve seen more evidence of connection between them than with Jax and any other character. Of course lots of things can still happen. But if I was a betting man…
>>151768184She didn't even directly ask she questioned why he didn't. You're the one reading into more than what's actually in the show.
jaxfujos deserve someone like that in their life
>>151768192>I can't understand these pesky humans unless they directly state what they are thinking!go to bed, Caine, you're drunk.
>>151768220Woah man that's a pretty wild guess.
The sad thing is that Caine's adventures seem to be actually pretty fun if you get into them considering you can't die or even be permanently injured. It's just that the humans are stuck with them.
>>151768227they do have fun when Jax doesn't ruin them. maybe the lesson they learn is they have to throw jax into the basement and they can live a peaceful life.
>>151768139>Pomni isn't specialbut shes precious and i want to protect that little funny jester
>>151768181im jax but worse (and genuine)
>>151768227Tbh i would gladly sign up for the digital circus if the creators publicly sold the thing as an alternative reality you can go to if your poverty life is too shitty or became a sad hobo recently, no need to worry about food, no shitty illnesses tearing your body up, no worrying about whether you might die or not, no boredom (since Caine would gladly personalize your next adventure if you act nice enough with him), you can even talk to the NPCs and be friends with them as long as you dont take them to the main circus, the amazing digital circus unironically has potential to be truly amazing if you had the ability to choose on your own terms if you want to join in or not, an exclusive 18+ NSFW TADC gamemode would also elevate it to peak world-changing potential if it was publicly available
>>151768181background guylike abel but for real and without the "knows how to get out of the circus" part
>>151768192Gangle was originally going to be the one who told him everything was fine, but Goose switched her for Pomni, and even Gangle's VA said Pomni made more sense.He's not going to take comfort from his punching bag.
>>151768181I would be a version of jax that isnt a depressed twink
I would just let Jax die. I think it's weird how much the other characters try to rehab him and give him second chances.
>>151768311They're good people. Even if dying is his own fault, a good person just doesn't feel comfortable not trying to prevent it.
I think Gangle is the real villain of the series, I mean who the fuck trusts a harmless smelly weeb like her?
>>151768325>harmlessShe's deadly
>>151768321So would you save a bleeding hitler if he asked you to? Lmao, the right play is to let jax abstract, play stupid games, win stupid prizes
>>151768332Jax hasn't ever shoved real people into a gas chamber.
>>151768321There has to be a limit. You'd get sympathy fatigue pretty quick when you're like>okay jax we can all be friends just dont ruin everything for everyone again>*jax ruins everything again and acts like a cunt about it and says its actually everyone elses fault and are bad and evil for blaming him for doing the thing he did in front of them and they're just mean because they dont have enough faith in him* >repeat forever It gets old quick when he's not showing even the slightest bit of willingness to even try to change for the better.
i wanna put my hand around ragatha's hand (consensual)
Jax haters think he’s Hitler with zero irony in their hearts. But actually Jax is just kind of a prick. He’s an annoying dickhead. >He’s an evil abuser who’s ruining everything and destroying everyone’s lives Yeah not really.
>>151768372The issue isn't that he's a dickhead, it's he's a dickhead with no remorse or desire to not be a dickhead. He doesn't want to get better and he doesn't feel bad about the bad things he does and worse he acts like he's the victim. He's not some sympathetic character who fucks up sometimes he has never once been shown to want to be a better person. >>He’s an evil abuser who’s ruining everything and destroying everyone’s lives Unironically true going purely by what's in the show actually. Every time he's not allowed to participate everyone else has a good time. When he is allowed to participate at least 1 other person suffers because of it.
>>151768387The only actual bad thing we’ve seen him do is lose his shit at Pomni in Episode 6 and all the stuff he said to her during their fight. The rest has just been him being an asshole in a silly cartoonish way and general teasing. You’re waaaayyy overselling how evil he is.
Jax isn't evil he's just a socially stunted autist and this is his first time interacting with women
>>151768425Heh, he pretty clearly traumatized Gangle who really had a lot of issues before that, but still.Ultimately he's just trying to prove his point that everyone in the Circus would be happier if they behaved like cartoons characters with no depths to them besides archetypes. Even though given his reaction when the tables turn on him (like with Maid Jax) he really assumes that HE should be on top of the game
>>151767025Back when the show first came out, and everyone on /co/ was doing their Circus-sona's, I remember saying how mine would be spending 24/7 at the fairground
>>151768428Socially stunted autists are evil
>>151768181The racist one.Regardless of avatar, immediately find cloth/fabric to make an SS uniform out of.
Jax deserves redemption. Vegeta was way more evil than Jax and he was redeemed. That’s my metric for these things.
>>151768372He threw my wife into a deep-fryer.
>>151768530Vegeta didnt deserve it he should be killed for his crimes.
Jax and Pomni will do this in the final episode and i will stand up from my seat and give a standing ovation
>>151768533Yes but that was very funny unfortunately
>>151768550I thought she was gonna smack him for a second
>>151768549He’s been killed a few times I think, so it’s fine.
>>151768580He should get killed for as many as he killed
>>151767575the show is so visually sexless yet if i type "ragatha" into xitter and bluesky all i see is her giant ass and tits
>>151767633Episode 7 made me rewatch the other episodes, where in the past I was insanely bored by the allusions to past drama and trauma, and now it's more interesting since the gang are all together reacting to one thing, rather than being split into groups and having almost-therapy-sessions. Stuff like the stargazing scene or Pomni and Jax fight felt almost cringe before Episode 7, then I rewatched it and found some intrigue in it somehow.
>The worst thing you can do in this world is make someone think they aren't wantedJAXbros... we are VINDICATED.
>>151767943Is the blueface guy a OC or from somwhere
Imagine Ragatha peed in her blue jeans and she’s really embarrassed!
>>151767451Are we also thinking that you can be prevented from abstracting by merely being disturbed? The doorbell rang and Jax came out of whatever reverie he was in. Seems to me that if he was heading toward abstraction it would take a bigger intervention than ringing a doorbell to stop the process. Obviously, we just don't know enough about the abstraction process to make really good guesses.
>>151766647>Black Agatha>Crime scene in the backgroundWhat did the artist mean by this?
>>151767507Someone will do a left handed draw like in sanjuro
Singing (the theme song) killed my grandma ok?
>>151768836lmao, maximum faustian spirit
>>151768550>>151768566Aww that's cute
>>151768580Yeah was going to say Vegeta got his ass beaten and humiliated on multiple occasions and while he was too egotistical and prideful to really let it stick up until the Buu saga had him take three steps back, four steps forward; getting beaten by Cell after he helped him achieve his perfect form https://youtu.be/96odzvOujf0 , watching Goku outshine him in the Cell games, watching Gohan outshine everybody by wiping the floor with Cell and then watching his son be killed in-front of him (before finally failing to avenge him with rage alone) was an excellent way to make his arc feel fairThough honestly I don't think Vegeta ever had a redemption arc even after the Buu arc he never really did anything to try making up for anything he did he just decided to give up trying to kill everyone and rule and honestly I kinda like that, he didn't have a redemption arc at all he had a humbling & neutralization arc
Jax did nothing wrong.
>>151768372>>151768387The main misconception I feel Jax haters make is >he can’t keep getting away with it!!When he’s clearly NOT getting off with impunity. He’s suffering massively for his decisions & beliefs and this is setting up his atonement. We’ve seen him trash his standing with the group in real time, from ep 1-3 being a prick but still part of the gang to ep 4-6 others just outright refusing to associate with him. In this latest episode he literally fucks off to lie in the bed he’s made for himself. Jax’s arc is a continuous cycle of - his wellbeing/stability/worldview is challenged; Jax has to decide between adapting himself to the challenge or resisting to keep the status quo and avoid short term pain; and he chooses wrong every time. The button pressing is his biggest fuck up yet and will have permanent consequences for him but it won’t be the last time he’s presented with this choice. No one else can save him but himself and that will be the culmination of his character, his final decision either redeeming or killing him. Perhaps both.But he is noticeably changing. His behavior is unsustainable and finally catching up to him. Something will have to give, narratively
I like funnybunny but I must not forget my first favourite TADC ship.
>>151766629I saw someone point out that abstraction Kaufmo was distracted by a red monkey toy and seemed to be constantly attacking the redest thing he could find.It seems that abstracted Monsters chase after red things which is The Color of the exit door. It's also the colour of caine and The Color of the button Jax pushed
>>151768181The paranoid
>>151768550Damn you can fucking see the gears in his head turning "do I do this?... Fuck it we ball"
>>151766647Jax relaxed.
I sometimes wish TADC leaned more into the technical aspects of the simulation. Stuff like the collision glitching or the void or the model library from gummigoo's adventure. You can tell that's the mindset tadc started with cause everything I mentioned is from like the first couple episodes but it strayed towards the psychological/ emotional drama more, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but I thought it'd be cool if pomni and the gang Macgyver a plan purely through exploiting different glitches from various games.
>>151769146Kaufmo was redpilled
Jax has been edging for YEARS
>>151767878>phimosis.jpg
>>151769278Yeah I thought that was the way the show would eventually go as well
>>151769324>the gang learns how to crash the circus by spawning in a billion trillion propsif it works in gmod, it has to work in the circus, right!?
>>151767951That's a relationship tag"X & Y" means it's a non-romantic relationship, "X/Y" means it's romanticWelcome to AO3 by the way. You can never leave.

Imagine if Jax audibly acknowledged that Pomni is cute
>>151769356they're going to figure out they can leave the Circus by breaking the rules for indecent behaviour and getting banned https://youtu.be/OAYXlLCb1qo
>>151769133Good point, I agree. He will soon reach a threshold in which a final move must be made one way or the other

Jax... I'm going to get Pomni, would that help?">"you really think I'll come out just because the cute one asks?">"oh, you think she's cute?">"...

>>151769632people who love stephen universe HATE him and don't understand that he's more than surface level. they believed his rant at Pomni and go around calling themselves empaths
>>151769632he's certainly misbehaving and needs to apologize and be nicer, but the level of vitriol about him is absurd
>>151769610The only black coded thing about the rabbit is that he’s tall and skinny

>>151769759Beatings, lots of beatings.
So I'm wondering if that theory about the characters getting either a cake or a bowling ball dropped on them (and Kinger specifically catching the bowling ball only to be taken out with a rook) during the intermission scene signified Caine's secret resentment towards certain characters has any bearing again now that we know that 1) Caine very likely gave Kinger his memory quirk to handicap him (hence taking him out with a rook)2) Caine now including "the Pomni" in same sentences as Zooble now when asking Jax about how to make his adventures more appealing

>>151769945>it's universally agreed that Ragatha is white because she comes from money
>>151769945I think Jax is a 5' tall Filipino and when they get out of the circus, he's the same height as Pomni, which she immediately accepts
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ki6-pjQdBy0
>>151769904IIRC people thought the bowling balls were dropped on the humans Caine liked and the cakes dropped on the ones he disliked the most>Caine likes Jax and Kinger because they commit to his adventures, and they like Pomni because she's new and not completely fed up with him>He dislikes Gangle for being sad when the circus is supposed to make everyone happy (and he thinks it's her fault she's sad) and he dislikes Ragatha because reasons
>>151769945Why do all artists make human versions that look like freaks. Pomni was an accountant of a supermarket. Those people don't look like pierced tattooed tumbler rejects. Zooble. Sure. Maybe even gangle. But not an accountant.
the jax short that was the video for the jax maid plush appeared on my youtube front page and i clicked it..... i am not a fag i swear but that silly purple rabbit daning around stirred up something inside me.....

>>151770026>IIRC people thought the bowling balls were dropped on the humans Caine liked and the cakes dropped on the ones he disliked the mostThis never made any sense to me, same with the cake meaning they abstract. Getting a cake is the preferable alternative to being hit with a bowling ball.

>>151770457Well yeah, but it's Caine logic. He might just think bowling balls are a way to show love.
Pomni is cringe.
I could fix that Jax and I genuinely mean that

>>151767451I want to take a Jax pressie.
>>151768237Pomni can fix him
>>151770478You could hand wave one being Canadian anyway. TADC could be set in Washington for all we know.
What’s the cutest Ragatha?
>>151770838It’s set in Vermont because of people started vanishing no one would even notice
>>151770851The seething femcel one that Goose won't give us
>>151768143>Tfw .2 inches too small
>>151770851Evil Ragatha
>>151768181The incel, jax is the chud so it doesn't clash.
>>151768181AI fucker
>>151768311This should be the last straw, even if caine did worse they shouldn't trust him anymore.
>>151770883They are all incels though, there is no sex in the circus
>>151767290Caine revealed that he used to be aware of what happens outside of the game until "they cut me off"
>>151768181I'd just be another Gangle with a bit of Ragatha traits (especifically the "Oh my fucking god if I mildly upset anyone I'll get a heart attack" thing). Likely an animal plushie or a sockpuppet. I've always felt more like a doll that was given the gift of life by mistake.
>>151767543Nice butt.
>>151768181Ragatha's boyfriend
>>151769448Fuck giving them all a turn to choose and having them see visions of their ideal version of the circus (not specifically this but like this) would have been so fascinating
>>151768311>why do they keep tryingbecause they have to share a space with him
>>151769759I think she actually calmed down about that after her talk with kinger and playing with gangle in the loser corner, i just wish we saw her conversation with pomni after the awards but of course jax dmt hallucination was more important.
>>151768731He is Silly Samuel from Smiling Friends.
I wish we had gotten evil twist villain Ragatha... Ugh.. Evil women...
>>151770987>evil women>but jax is right there
>>151770987Ragatha is already evil though

HAAAAAA-CHOMO*MUNCH*MUNCH*MUNCH*
>>151771091meant to write chomp*
>>151771091Close your fucking mouth
Ragatha is the cutest girl in the entire UNIVERSE and I would like to kiss her please
>>151771104Chomo sounds so stupid it makes it more moe. Mistakes into miracles.
>>151768825I doubt Jax was gonna abstractKaufmo was clearly VERY distressed for a long time before abstracting while Jax was like depressed for a day and wasn't scribbling schizo shit on his walls
>>151771177>Triple dubs Whoa
>>151770540Mosey on out of here
>>151771177chomo is prison slang for child molester
>>151771202Isn't the implication that Caine is the one accidentally causing abstractions because he tries poking around with people's minds to "fix them"
>>151771275I'd let Ragatha molest me if I was a
>>151771091
>>151771277No. He's only done it once (Scratch) and then stopped
I've been wondering why participating in TADC fandom shit made me so nostalgic. I finally realized I feel almost the same as back when I participated in the colorful horse show fandom.
>>151771277That's the implication for Scratch at least. I'm willing to believe Caine is genuine when he says that he only stick to temporary and relatively harmless modifiers to keep the adventures interesting now. Although there's the implication that he's the one causing them to forget their names as well.
I bet I could beat up Jax. I bet I could bully him real good and then shape him into a functioning member of society. He’s a beautiful boy.
>We still don't know what happens when Jax hold his breath.I bet he inflates and start floating like a balloon, and that will be used in the climax to reach a critical area.
>>151771341This last episode was the first time I watched an episode's live premiere. The feeling of excitement reminded me strongly of the first colorful horse show episode I watched live after catching up (s2e14 btw).
>>151771091*choom
>>151771409Yeah it's either something really cringe and embarrassing or it's something useful.
>>151771409Could be that his body fills with holes. He doesn't do it because it makes him scared
>>151770548Why did C&A make their bleeding edge AI a fucking leaf?
>>151771058Most pointless character in TADC, Gummigoo is more relevant
>>151771438He slowly turns into a corncob like someone who got owned.
I actually love every character. Goos made me like all of them good job :)
which one of you spergs did this
>>151766708damn she has no ass
>>151771575Maybe they modeled his voice on that of an employee who was
>>151771341>>151771424I'm with you
>>151770722You call this sanity?
>>151771575They had to make him sound polite, who knows
Why do people pretend like this was all Jax? Right after he presses the button he looks around like he can't even understand why he did that.The entire reason why Jax’s breakdown at the end has any poignancy is because it's true. Caine clearly has the ability to mess with their minds which is what caused the first abstraction. Caine is clearly bullshitting about "temporary modifiers" because Pomni also correctly points out that they still can't remember their names even outside of adventures.Jax wasn't wrong here at all.
>>151771741Im legit starting to believe nobody actually believes Jax was manipulated and its actually a trolling scheme
>>151771741Femboy bunny hands wrote this post.
I love Jax. I just love him! He’s a bitch bastard.
>>151767270What's the significance of that year to TADC?
>>151771691How fast is 2Jax?
All things considered the gang got off with way more knowledge of their situation and leverage over Caine than previously established but I fear they might be too terminally retarded to act on using that in some beneficial way
As the shrimp NPC...!
I would kiss every circus member
>>151771741Ok Jax
>>151771798Faster than Zooble's and Pomni's reaction times
>>151771741Why even have characters in a story if they don’t do anything on their own, TADC should just be 7 clones of Caine fighting with each other
>>151771741Nah, you dumb. Pushing the button was all Jax, flipping out because as far as he's concerned leaving the Circus is the worst possible option for him. For most of the episode he's convinced this whole escape nonsense was just another of Caine's games, but as they neared the conclusion he was slowly coming to think that just maybe it was real, and the panic grew until he freaked out and made sure he couldn't be ejected from the Circus. Caine's lies got into Jax's head, made him reveal something about himself to the rest of the cast that he'd never have admitted to, otherwise.
>>151769499Having Jax face 0 social consequence for hitting the red button would be the worst thing they could do
>>151771878Episode 9 is just Caine poorly dressed as and poorly acting as each character.
>>151771741Irrational people do irrational shit all the time, why are Jaxfags so hell-bent on taking away accountability from their blorbo? The only reason Caine comes off as a manipulative scumbag with his long term rug pull is because literally no one was paying attention/cared about his antics. Whatever shit about the modifiers was something he couldn't grasp the idea of being as severe as full down mental manipulation and even then it's clear he doesn't want to go through the issue about "the first abstraction" because he knows he fucked up there
>>151770897If this moment doesn't have any actual lasting consequence and instead results in a hugbox attempt on jax, its genuinely joever
Final episode ends with everyone realizing there truly is no way out and they all end up willingly abstracting because it’s the closest they can get to being “free”. Would it be kino?
>>151771999it would be kino maximo
>>151771998>>151770897Watch it become a collective hug/therapy session here Jax is given yet another chance because "to err is human" or something along those lines
>>151771800The only beneficial way they could use it is to get him to make adventures they like more
>>151771999>hot, animalistic, sausage party-esque abstract monster orgy at the end
>>151771741Its possible the amnesia for names is caused by the circus itself as Caine also has no clue who the fuck they are
>>151771930I would watch that
>>151771806
>>151772082Caine has too much disdain for kinger to not have at least some idea who they are/were, its more likely that players knowing their real names just makes them way more abstract-prone
Why the FUCK did the sun murder that poor shrimp?
>>151772142It was going to be the next shrimp Hitler.
>>151772142the shrimp was making a move, the sun had to get it on
>Funnybunny receives a lot of attention in merchandise and commercials.>Ragapom doesn't receive anything.What's with this favoritism?
>>151772184Everyone wants a straight couple.
>>151772184ragatha is a tertiary character at best
>>151772184Lesbians are just kind of cringe.Homosexuals cannot experience true romance.
>>151772184Ragatha is boring and barely a character.
By the end of the series, Pomni and Jax WILL be good friends.
>>151772184>Ragapom doesn't receive anything.Only for those who lack eyes to see.aka coping
>>151772224>aka copingaka the default state of ragapoms
>>151772184funnybunny fucking sucks and i will punch gooseworx's dick if its anywhere near canonragapom cool tho
>>151771901>>151771958How come the cast can't remember their names then?
>>151772240That's all shipping bro. Real men go into powerscaling.
>>151772260Nah, I don't ever see any other shippers cope as hard as ragapoms. This last episode sent them into a cope spiral.
>>151772201Shes just motherly not gay
>>151772184Ragatha just doesn't really value any single relationship, she wants to be equally liked by everyone or else she isn't happy. Jax pretty much dislikes everyone but has shown hints of warming up to pomni, to the extent of going along with her escape plan despite being openly against it. Funnybunny is by far the more interesting ship
>>151768181The guy actually interested in exploring the circus/adventures, but get's kinda too into it
>>151772184>FavoritismJax and Pomni (also Caine) are mascots as they represent the brand the best and are visually most easy to recognize as "those TADC shitters." Ragatha's super obvi Raggedy Ann ref makes her too plain to be a mascot.
>>151772279Pomni asks Jax to do something for her, and funnybunny guys are acting like he's a whipped boyfriend.Shipping is always about coping, especially when no ships will be canon.
>>151772279>cope spiral Ragatha's still dripping spaghetti around Pomni. What more do they want
>>151768462I love the circus-sonas of the first thread. Lots of good ones… and a below average one with mine. The black and white depressed robot.
>>151772365Any hint of reciprocation.
>>151770365>be the in fieldsIt's always ESL brownoids LARPing as white that say this shit, isn't it?
>>151772184Merchandise costs money to make so it makes sense the one time they pander to shippers they go with the most popular one. It's why Jax is always getting new merch, he's the most popular.
>>151772426>reciprocationShe consults with Ragatha in-private first regarding Abel. If they're trying to escape, she's not gonna ask to fuck later. You know because they're trying to escape.
>>151770447I do like how spot on it is when Jax calls her out for being a bartender and a tattoo artist as classic tranny jobs
>>151772462I don't think anyone saying "angloid" is trying to pass themselves off as white
>>151768181Probably the "Autistic weirdo"Like Kinger, but without the dementia or fatherly vibes.
>The episode that was supposed to be 50% hers is still mostly about Jax.>Her conversation with Pomni happens off-camera, and things between them still feel awkward.>She barely gets any merchandise, even though at the beginning she was put in a trio with Pomni and Jax.>Gangle and even Zooble have gotten more attention than her.Does Goose hate Ragatha?
>>151772518Merch would spoil the show, trust the plan!
>>151772518At this point ragatha is the only main circus member that has not had any meaningful development or, at the very least, an abstraction scare, which makes her the least interesting character currently
>>151772518>Gangle and even Zooble have gotten more attention than her.Last I checked, Ragatha had more screen time than both.
>>151771741He wasn't even implying Caine made him do it. He was bringing it up because it was another thing he was mad at Caine about that was vaguely related. You can probably remember an argument with a loved one where one of you did this.
>>151772256Im gonna roll with two theories so far: their names are scrapped clean to have everyone's naming convention in line with the whimsical nature of the circus, if it's caused by Caine or is some sort o directive the game forces it's yet to be seen, Caine does seem a bit taken aback of that being included in the accusations.Or the other, assuming Caine assigning himself a name is still canon, them not remembering their names could be a "blessing" from his part, allowing them to pick a name for their new life as something he can share in common with them and (in his mind) something that puts him and them in equal ground as equal beings who choose him
>>151772518>Zooble have gotten more attention than her.Quantifiably untrue. Your mid-girl will be relevant next episode. Stop crying.
>>151772518>The episode that was supposed to be 50% hers is still mostly about JaxPeople keep saying this but she had a fuck ton of development and moments in both episode 5 and 6.
>>151772679Everyone wants a Gangle style full episode feature. Greedy fucks.
Having Zooble feels like cheating, she has petty much spelt the solution to the problems so far but has done so with Gangle who never shares the lessons and both have pretty much ended their arcs and are just there for moral support I guess
>>151772743I think there's one more thing Zooble's going to learn before the end and it'll have to do with Caine
>>151772743>the solution was not being a cunt and getting along with each otherwowee
If you're ever sad about anything it means every bad thing you did isnt bad
>>151772770I've never done anything bad because I'm always correct and good.
>>151772743>spelt the solutionZooble is a major contributor to Caine's impending meltdown. They aren't fixing shit
>>151772743>the solution to the problemsThey're traped in hell, theres no solutions to that
>>151772770That's explicitly the opposite of Goose's intent with the show
>>151772805After the last episode I think kinger is most likely to make caine lose his shit, zooble just kind of annoys him by being impossible to please, kinger poses a genuine threat to his status quo and (percieved) image in the eyes of the human players
>>151772821I know that but it's amazing how many people say people are too harsh to Jax when for every anti-Jax post there's 10 posts saying how he's actually a sad boy = sympathetic = actually not bad. He doesn't even care about saying he's sorry when he hurts someone by accident 0 instinct or empathy his immediate reaction is actually just deflecting blame from himself.
>>151772879The consequence of the whole "le tragic backstory" trope that has been rampant in media for the last decade
>>151772879Maybe Cuntgatha shouldn't have immediately started yelling at him and gave him a chance to say something instead of putting him right on the defensive.
>>151772879There are people here who think (or at least act like they think) that everything Jax does is performative. Just because he is a prick does not mean he is as sinister as some make him out to be.
>>151772936No he's not purely performative, sometimes he's evil just because he likes it.
>>151772921That's always existed, it's just relatively new that people use that as some sort of an excuse for not only actions but more importantly an unwillingness to change. Personally I blame the last 3 generations growing up with shounen anime
He'll get away with everything wont he
>>151772936Everything jax does IS performative, but not because he's some kind of evil genius. He's just a flawed asshole who wants the other circus members to perform with him instead of seeking deeper meaning, building relationships or even just trying to make genuine attempts to leave the circus. Pure crab-in-a-bucket mentality
>>151773019As he should.
>>151773019Of course. But you already knew it would turn out like this
>>151773011 ENJOY YOUR NEW ADVENTURE MY MEOWING MILK MAIDS
>>151773019Nah he'll get removed and everyone else will have a happy life in the circus. We've seen it multiple times. >jax gets tied up during the haunted house>ragatha and gangle get to enjoy the adventure >jax gets forced to play along and not ruin someone else's fun >everyone (except jax) has a good time It happens multiple times. Jax is the problem
>>151773074>The players realize they can start a vote kick
>>151771382Most of Caine's lies are through omission rather than deceit, I think he's genuinely too stupid to intentionally lie unless it's for the sake of an adventure/comedic bit.
