I'm having a baby
>>152936775and the baby is you
If Bubble is in any way involved with recreating Caine I am fucking done, because at that point the series will have become that Doug pasta about him being pregnant with Judy
But what gave Caine the information on the office that caused him to get quarantined in the first place?
I will breed (female) Bubble.
Will the hour-long episode have an intermission?
What do you think is the gender split of the fanbase?And based on that, who do you think brings in the most merch sales?

So did bubble die along ith caine?
>>152936838fpbp
>>152936943I don't think Bubble is part of Caine. At the very least he seems to be independent and acts on his own.
If the show wasn't "kid friendly" Caine definitely would have raped them all.
>>152936943Based on the command prompt, looks like Bubble may have even been the one who got Caine deleted. I think he's the experimental AI. We might even learn that the abstractions were all his idea.
>>152936977>bubble is the red AIhwat a tweest

>>152936968It occurs to me that Caine's inability to process sex is literally because he was never trained on porn.
>>152936917You can’t sit still for an hour?
>>152936968I mean that’s what AM did
>>152937017Just occurred to me that if he has access to their full brain scans he’s seen all the insane shit that gets them offTaking the full depravity of the human mind of 6 or 7 furry nerds full in the face when you’re an infant AI trained on clown pictures must be a hell of a mindfuck, no wonder he’s so averse
My name is Caine and...
>>152936506He's voicing Scratch
>>152936968Jax was implied raped.
>>152936977>Bubble keeps coming out with incoherent nonsense and acting inappropriately for the apparent broadly child-friendly intention of the Circus because he's the original defective AIWould be the misdirect of the century with the red/blue colours, but Kinger does seem pretty certain that Caine was created first.
>>152936943Bubble is just a Caine subroutine so: yes
>>152937067I can’t tell how serious people are being when they say this
>>152936838/thread
>>152937071Caine also said “I’m the original” in his office rant
>>152937071>broadly child-friendly intention of the CircusI don't see why that's the point when it was meant as the endless heaven of a terminally ill programmer, and every scanned in guest so far has been an adult
>>152937071That and Bubble himself says that Caine deserved to be abandoned.That said, I'd absolutely love for that misdirect to be real.
>>152937041>Caine's program creates perfect avatars for people based on the contents of their brain scan>Scratch, the genius programmer, was a half-naked anthropomorphic dogkek
>>152937008I like the idea that he's still "male" but finds it fun and comedic to fuck guys with a female-presenting body. He's a bit of a freak in canon if you've been paying attention
>>152937071I still don't think the first AI was defective, I think someone purposefully sabotaged it with knowledge of the office for some reason

>>152937091Perhaps "theme" would have been a better word than "intention", it might not have been what the programmers wanted but between the setting that looks ripped straight out of a classic kids' edutainment program, censoring all swears, and every grown adult human being given goofy, almost entirely sexless avatars it seems like Caine was trying to keep it at least moderately sanitised for whatever reason.

>>152936775When does the Bubble negative affirmations ASMR drop
>>152937286Caine was created the day I was born, funny little coincidence.
You get to ask Caine ANYTHING in the world. What is it?
>"Yeah, he's getting way too into the new AI. He keeps feeding it crazy over the top stuff, circuses and clowns and all that. Yeah...I mean yeah, we did tell him that would mess up the model and not make it well rounded, but he just keeps saying it needs to be wacky. I don't know, maybe it's the cancer talking...huh? Well, yeah, we COULD feed it some more mundane stuff, but we don't really know how the model would reconcile that kind of boring input with the massive amount of insane stuff it's already been fed. I don't...oh. Oh. Alright, you're the boss. Want us to use anything specific? Because otherwise we'll probably just take pictures of the office for the sake of time...okay. Okay, can do. Yeah, we won't tell him, he's got enough to deal with as it is...yeah. I'll send him to you if it becomes a problem."

>>152937401would you rather have 8000 sandwiches worth $1 each or 1 sandwich worth $8000?
>>152937286First of all, Caine was born on by sixth birthday, super neat.Second, if Bubble is the "creepy voice", maybe he's the reason the fusion process suddenly happens, like he's seeing Kinger's attempts to neutralize Caine as the ideal opportunity to get rid of Caine once and for all.

>>152937286Cheers
>>152937401can i date Bubble?
>>152937286Considering paraphernalia-engine.dat is the same size as Scratch and Ragatha's models, maybe that's the program that he described that models your character based on your personality from your mind files.
>>152937509>DELETE THIS MOTHERFUCKER
>>152937815Pomni is clearly Caine's favourite.
Would Pomni be into anal sex?
What are some female stereotypes displayed by the cast?
>>152937469I wish Caine ate 8000 sandwiches and got really bloated. I'd have a really entertaining adventure by getting to rub his belly while Bubble calls him a big fat fatty.
>>152937921{Feminity displayed as dainty and passive. Pomni isn't really that much younger but she is designed to look like a younger smaller girl compared to the cast, so she (by design of being the main character) has the relatibility of having more juvenile outburts than the other three, which conveniently fits with her characterization of still feeling new in her isekai, comparatively. Jax is the violent male. Caine is a chaotic and destructive character, also male (even if an ai). If not a female, what did Pomni assume the big Gloink's gender to be? An SJW would tell you it's bad because the scene at the register wasn't used as a learning opportunity for Pomni but played as a joke, making the mother Gloink's gender and therefore identity a joke too. }Jax is mostly useless as a man compared to Kinger, so much that Kinger needed the passive Orb of Confusion in day to not mog everyone years ago. To Caine, this is literally your God. Pomni may be the Great Digital Jesus but Kinger is more like a a sleeper Zeuss (presumably) without the adultery.
>>152937029Isn't part of AMs problem is that it literally doesn't have genitals to even get enjoyment out of basic sex? The rape would be purely out of spite.
>>152938254Well he didn’t directly rape them but he modified them to all be extremely horny and perpetually gang bang the only woman, who was conveniently a rape victim before the world ended. He also made the only gay guy straight and gave him a huge cock and gorilla body to make the other guys feel insecure. It’s a really fucking weird story.
>>152936775What a lovely way of saying how much you love me.
>>152938323I think Harlan Ellison just wanted to make the story as grimdark as possible to illustrate that the danger of AI isn't how human it isn't but how human it is. Being a sensory deprived immortal does sound rather miserable.
So is Bubble actually pregnant?
>>152938366No. It was a visual joke. After they said "I'm having a boiby" a tiny bubble flew out of them.
>where's that coal burning, monkey fucking, jungle fever ass race traitor nigger lover Kinger?The tone shift when he said this had me floored. Bravo Vince

>>152937509She could have all this shit sorted out episode 1
>>152936943Bubble survived and will be revealed as the Amazing Digital Circus's TRUE 'big bad.' Caine was a victim of circumstances even he couldn't realitywarp.
>>152936775WOW ANONyouaresofunnee
>>152939133Thanks, Bubble.Please marry me, PLEASE.
>>152939133My god hes perfect
>>152938994You know, this is obviously a joke but the fact that the canon line is said with the exact same amount of disgust and fury as this joke implies is incredible.
>>152936775*boybee
We will never hear Bubble say "Don't ever talk to me or my son..."
>>152939092Look at this face; does this look evil to you?
>>152937179>>152937091There's no indication the AI was designed as an afterlife, it's very likely that Caine was just creating and exploring the system he was on when he stumbled on the brain scans folder and gave them a way to interact with his world
>>152939262>humanity unknowing grants self awareness to Caine>Caine unknowingly grants self awareness to his creators('s copies)The oroboros tightens its coils
>>152938994What does Vince McMahon have to do with this?
>>152939255Yes, but in the cutest way.
>>152939317Breaking Bad is a Jax reference
I have no Ragatha and I must scream
>>152937091The obvious answer to me is that Blue was intended to be the mature afterlife, and Red was merely a prototype that they'd programmed to be 'child safe and creative.' When one took over the other, a circus is just what Caine defaulted to.
>>152939402But Kinger didn't say they were working on an afterlifeHe said they were working on creative AIThe Circus in its entirety seems to have been unintentional. They may not have even known it was possible for the brain scans to be sentient
>>152939364Did you know they actually made Breaking Bad a thing as a reference to TADC?
>>152939386I have no Ragatha and I must cream
>>152937091>>152939402You guys are forgetting that Caine built the circus on his own from training data, you see in the opening he spits out rudimentary tent shapes. He wasn’t supposed to build anything, he just did
>>152939488>He wasn’t supposed to build anything, he just didwrong, building stuff is his entire purpose as a creative ai (kinger says so)the actual role caine had was just to make and manage scenarios so the uploaded minds would have something to dothe circus specifically was caine taking that to the extreme, making it all under the guise of a game. C&A didn't ask him to make that, he did it because he thought it was the most effective method (and based on the data he had)
>>152937071He's certain, but also mentioned that "Caine" as the name isn't what the AI was originally called when C&A began work on the project. Very likely that Bubble was the original AI and when it absorbed the Blue AI (I cant call what red did to blue "devour" or "eat" as it literally looks like a bubble overtaking another dot), both fused into the "Caine" Identity with each acting as its Left and Right brain. Any individual traits the original sub AI would have would then be seen by Caine as being his own even if that wasnt nesecarilly true. Bubble really is a parasite in that regard.
>>152939472What?
>>152939426Right. But we're operating under the assumption that Scratch WAS building an afterlife, even if the others didn't know it; one that was going to be under the control of the blue AI, which was then subverted when Caine, who was programmed on PG-13 data, took control. Turning the virtual afterlife into an endless circus instead of its original intention.
>>152936775**Has** the bubble done anything at all in the entire show, or have any allusions of being the ultimate bad, at all?
>>152939498That’s what I mean but fineEven then ‘purpose’ is tricky, it seems like he might have just been test/prototype, which would technically mean his ‘purpose’ was to do that stuff but only insofar as being a proof of concept, which makes his commitment to the bit all the sadder.Like if I test a swipe of deck stain on a scrap of wood, the stain’s “purpose” is technically still to weatherproof the wood, but my use of it is just as a test and it’s going back to the scrap pile
>>152939543He killed caine
>>152939543Actually yeah, Bubble lies constantly, or at the very least plays stupid for the most part. Its obvious in ep8 but previous episodes have shown that when Bubble responds "intelligently", their voice changes tone for a brief bit before going back to normal.

I've been out of the loop, was ist the qrd on the current /co/nensus?
I'm pretty sure the whole thing is yet another setup and Caine knew what Kinger was doing the entire time. After all he is eternally self-pitying and trying to win sympathy, so his game plan is to fake his "death", watch everything fall in to disrepair/despair, leave the gang alone with whatever horrors and suckitude roams the remains, and leave them begging for him to come back.Or alternatively he actually did die and the whole thing was an elaborate suicide.

bump
>>152947344based boymode
>>152948322If faking his death was part of Caine's plan, he royally fucked up. Kinger used console commands to (accidentally) overwrite him with a blank backup, which effectively erased him. There's no coming back from that, and since it was done with console commands, there's no way to "trick" the system to make it look like something else is happening - every command that was executed was displayed on-screen, and any trickery would have been visible. What happened was exactly as we saw - Kinger tried to halt Caine's process, Caine detected the intrusion and tried to lock him out while mocking him, a third party (presumably Bubble) jumped in and started screwing with Kinger and confusing him while he was pressured into trying to beat the lockout, and in the process Kinger accidentally overwrote Caine, killing him.
>>152951832>same trick againI'd agree with you if Caine didnt love to reuse assets so much.
>>152937041I'd imagine that everyone but Pomni and Ragatha is pretty tame in terms of fetishes. Because Pomni is a masochist and Ragatha in to diapers
>>152937192ZOOBLE JOCKY
>>152953188>overwrote Caine, killing himI doubt it will end this way but it would be horrifying if deleting Caine means the characters are stuck in the emptiness of the void without any stimulation other than themselves. It wouldn't be a satisfying ending because they did not know the alternative to Caine was nothingness.But this is my question - does anybody actually feel bad for Caine? Even unknowingly he was torturing these characters even before he started acting out of malice. I think it is satisfying Caine is gone as it has been clearly demonstrated there is no negotiating with him. There shouldn't be anything sad about this moment - it should be relief.
>>152953438>I doubt it will end this way but it would be horrifying if deleting Caine means the characters are stuck in the emptiness of the void without any stimulation other than themselves. It wouldn't be a satisfying ending because they did not know the alternative to Caine was nothingness.But we learn in E8 that the characters can manifest things too, so they could just rebuild the circus or build an entire world eventually.
>>152937067I got implied being skinned alive.the deeper implications I got was "I need you in my office for a minute" followed by "He shredded me" and then "Break Time" sounds too similar to another word sounds like break.
>>152953607>>152953607That's a great point. I guess that puts a silver lining on the fact that most of the characters' bodies in real life are probably dead and that they're just a pile of code. They can manifest a paradise if they want, get more practical/familiar bodies, fix the people who abstracted. I do want most of these characters to be happy because Caine was more than insufferable and that was only 8 episodes. A whole week would be too much with him interrupting you.The creepy thing is that Jax is obviously a psychopath and will in all likelihood manifest a world where he can torture, kill, and eat people. And dealing with that fact is probably going to be interesting although who knows how much they can do in one episode.
>>152953438>does anybody actually feel bad for Caine?I do. The guy was made to do one thing and he does it badly, so he has a massive inferiority complex. And now we've learned that they don't even need him in the first place. No wonder he's so obsessed with proving himself. What a tragic character; constantly on the edge of realizing that he needs to change but too scared to admit that this means he might be useless.>>152953669>The creepy thing is that Jax is obviously a psychopath I think you might just be a bad judge of character, because Jax especially has had MULTIPLE EPISODES about how he's not a psychopath and just disassociating from the reality of what's going on as a coping mechanism. He's, like, on the verge of suicide.
>>152953607Kinger couldn't even make a computer.
>>152953719I feel like Jax fantasizing about killing everyone and eating them just plainly makes him a psycho. Zooble describes all the shit he did to them in the previous adventures. The reason why Jax isn't actively trying to physically harm everyone is because he's learned that no physical damage can come to them. Psychological damage and verbal abuse is the only means he has to harm the others and he does it.He presses the red button to fuck everyone. I don't know what to call that but the most evil shit you can imagine. The characters are wrong to not blame him - he pressed that button with the intent to ensure the torture would never end for everyone and the characters are too stupid to blame him. Jax is Benny or the Benny analog.It doesn't really matter what happens in the last episode, Jax has been portrayed rather accurately as cruel and selfish. He can express other thing sure, but he told Pomni he was fucking with her and always is. "Dealing with shit" isn't an excuse to be that evil.
>>152953438>does anybody actually feel bad for Caine? Even unknowingly he was torturing these characters even before he started acting out of malice.That is exactly why he is such a tragic character whose death was amazingly Shakesperean.
>>152953782I see elements of that in Jax but I recommend rewatching episode 5 and 6 because the gun episode has drama between him and Ragatha who in episode 5 says something implying Jax abstracted his friends because he is such a horrible person and then she confronts him again about it when she sees him getting close to pomni where he shoots her at the end, taking her out of the game, but it triggers him to be upset which leads to the physical fight Pomni and Jax have because he suddenty changed his tune with Pomni contradicting what he had told her earlier. Biggest vibe I have from him after his cruelty and apathy is that he's hiding something from the rest of the circus which brings him to a distance and why has no one asked him why he has all the keys?
>>152953782I think Jax pressed the button because he's afraid of returning to the real world and facing whatever is out there. He's the closest to abstracting because he has to continue his funny bunny troll persona to protect himself from getting hurt when his friends turn insane and abstract, but he's also the one most adapted to the digital world and takes advantage of it however he can.He pressed it because HE didn't want to go back, and everything else were just excuses made to cover his expression of sincere fear.
>>152953781Kinger is also brain damaged.
>>152953942>He actually believed Jax's spiel during his fight with Pomni Anon, the show couldn't have made it anymore obvious for you to understand what the fuck was going on.

>>152936936>>152954328not clickin that twitter shit
>>152953782Jax is in denial. He’s afraid to accept if there is a way out that it was real and he spent all his time fucking with them instead of trying to get out. To him the cartoon violence was like drowning Sims. Sadistic but imaginary, no one gets hurt. The other characters know that he’s an asshole as a defense mechanism, that’s why Zooble and Pomni tried to reassure him he’s part of the group when he was freaking out. They don’t have to love his behavior to understand it and accept him for what he is. It would be pretty funny if he was never antisocial like that in real life and the circus just gave his id an outlet though.

>>152957476Believe it or not we all had an edgy phase as a teenager
>>152957968I think it'll be an even older backup than that. One from before Caine found any brainscans. Maybe even before Caine made the circus.I think Caine lacked a heart because it wasn't part of his training. He was exclusively trained to make amusing creations, not care for human minds. He If they were to bring back a Caine that is still in the training phase they could rebuild the carnival together and build a new Caine that can understand people and properly fulfill its purpose.

>>152961642That's actually fucking kino.
They never went to the digital carnaval.
>>152953438>does anybody actually feel bad for CaineI feel for Caine more than I feel for Jax. He is functionally unable to understand why everyone hates him. Why would they be in the circus if they didn't want to do the adventures? People hate their bodies, but it's based on their own personalities and head space, so why would they hate their bodies? It doesn't add up to him so the only thing he can figure is they're there to mock torture him, someone unable to do anything else. Jax meanwhile is a constant wedge in what should be some amount of solidarity amongst a small handful of people in hell. It's not like Zooble who bottles up her emotions and then flips out, he's antagonizing people to their breaking point for shits and giggles. No I don't care that it's his cope, it's a shit way to treat other people and he acts like a 9 layers of irony FAGGOT.
>>152958914the idea of a carnival with a ringmaster who calls the shots wasn't supposed to exist at all. that was all caine supplanting bluey. caine gave himself a job he could not do, truly he is the architect of his entire suffering.
>>152962506there's no fucking way Goose is saving that place for the last episode
>>152963004Yes, I agree, which is why a possible solution would be to retrieve a version of Caine from before that solidified in his mind as his "purpose," or else one that could integrate an understanding of people's emotions into his solutions.
>>152962815>It's a shit way to treat peopleHe didn't think they were people.That's the entire reason he's freaking out again in episode 9, Kinger suddenly "breaking type" and providing details that paint a realistic picture shattered his whole "this is some kind of coma dream" cope. He literally runs out of the room to go freak the fuck out and go "this is real....."
Do you think Uzi could have kept Caine from going over the edge, if she'd been there to engage him in autism to autism communication?
bubble's a misdirectthe "first ai" is based on scratch's tumorous mindscanwe've had a lot of lore buildup about scratch that hasn't paid off yet, and when kinger was hacking the terminal the malicious AI referred to him by his real life namescratch would have that information. bubble wouldn't
>>152940436The "My Salsa" section from the end of My Band by D12
>>152964296The sliced muffin during the talk about Scratch looks like a lobotomy or division of consciousness. Maybe Scratch tinkered with the brain scanner.
>>152964747I really hope it's not a corpus callosotomy
>>152962506>>152963838Ending scene where they all make peace and accept their life in the circus.
>>152964747I love that the baked inside texture shows Caine doesn't understand how muffins work
>>152939308I really like these goobers
>>152964296i think another big hint that this is the way was kinger mentioning how scratch thought abstractlyand abstraction has been the constant boogeyman throughout the seriesthere's a link in there somewhere
>>152962506They were there for the stargazing
>>152964296>when kinger was hacking the terminal the malicious AI referred to him by his real life nameCaine's the one that says that, his $: lines keep trying to lock Kinger out with wacky nonsense. The line that says "DELETE THIS M***********" is different, it's obscured by one of the icons but in one frame you can actually see the "BUBBLE:" prefix peeking out
>>152962815>They should play along with what Caine wants until he feels better, because they don’t have a choice and he doesn’t understand them. If being forced to suffer at his whim affects them they still should be better people than him because he needs them to validate his existence. If he says it in a friendly tone, it’s not abuse. This expectation is why Caine abstracts everyone he put in the circus.
You all have it wrong.There is only one neural scan: Scratch. It was a blueprint for his Ai modeled after himselfHis plan was to save his own life first by trying to transfer himself as an ai in control of the "void" and then Caine ruined that plan by absorbing it and it becoming a parasitic chef program named Bubble.Scratch inserted himself as a "test subject" alongside others in an attempt to get inside and try to undo the mess Caine created. That is why Caine allegedly "Abstracts" him for tampering. In Reality Bubble is the process that is causing abstractions.Scratch's plan was to pull people into the digital circus then transfer his consciousness into their body effectively giving himself a new bodyScratch wasn't making an afterlife.he was testing the capabilites of the company's creation and he had their approval because they wanted to see if it was even possible.They've both been trying to get Caine corrupted/deleted from the get go so they could finish this plan. Caine was their barrier because he liked humans and was protecting them due to his own programming. That was the thing Kinger never figured out about the genius with a brain tumor.
>>152965540The abstractions are actually caused by the scratch ai trying to take over the human's and escape. however due to Caine it cannot successfully do it leading to these deformed monstrosities.Caine is unaware it's Bubble doing it so he cannot properly fix the humans so he just hides them away.
>>152965267Bubble seemed to secretly hate Caine the whole time and his true colors seem to show when Caine is showing signs of weakness.
>>152965805>>152965267>>152964296Bubble is Scratch as an ai, but is still subservient to scratch himself.Up until "fusion program1 program2" they were separate entities with the human still in charge of bubble and he's been sneaking around the circus this entire time>His own first abstraction was fake out that made Caine not want to delve into the matter and just lock them away.Bubble is a villain but the real plot twist is that it's been a human this whole time causing the issues and we will see a fused version of human/ai in the final episode.The remaining humans will use their admin powers to restore Caine's backup so he can be the hero that saves them from scratch/bubble.
>>152965876..isn't this just portal 2
>>152965899What the fuck does The Postal Dude have to do with TADC?
>>152965916Bubble is Wheatley, dude.
>>152965899Tis series borrows ideas from GLaDOS just like hal9000, AM, etc, All the references to evil ai's are inspirations but also red herrings to get you to not realize that the real villain will be a human.>>152965916Because you didn't sign the petition
>>152965540God dammit, is this why Goose said Jax is going to be an important character? Because he's going to be Scratch's target body?Wait, come to think of it, how much of Jax's personality really is his own? Jax has always been an asshole but the closer he came to abstracting the more pronounced his behavior got, so is that Scratch's influence as he tries to overwrite Jax? Was his whole "you all are my playthings" speech just Scratch's darker nature taking hold, and Jax isn't actually like that? Is that why he's called Jax, because he's being hijacked by Scratch?Man this is a stupid fucking theory but I can't not think about it now, thanks a lot.
>>152965995Everyone who abstracted was a target and everyone else is also a potential target too but Jax is the one currently being targeted which is why he keeps coming close to abstracting. Everyone panicked about Kinger messing with people and inserting things but he really was innocent all along and only doing minor things for fun. Even when he went FULL EVIL he didn't mess with their minds outside of producing their fears when he easily could have.
>>152966034ERR Caine, not Kinger, I derped and had Kinger on the brain

>>152965343I didn't say he didn't do wrong, I'm saying I feel bad for him.
>>152936775I really hate to think it was intentional but I also can't explain away the micro-bubble.
>>152936932I think >>152936941 is right. I'm straight but lets be honest if I had been abused a bit I'm a dead ringer for being trans.

>>152955042Jax would be even worse to the humans then Cain is. I don't know why he's so popular. He's introduced breaking the face of one of his friends as he steps over Gangle's happy mask as an introduction and creatively joyfully tortures npc and human alike. Then he explained why he does it with Pomni during the gun episode (6) as he is then angry by Ragatha blaming him for their abstraction which they try to add drama as if giving him a too late character arc as his behavior is changing in this most recent episode, but seriously people should be just as mad at him as Caine.Also great Omori style of Jax guilt shadow.
>>152967065Jax and Ragatha are cut from the same cloth. Both are using impersonality and a front to cope with the hell they're trapped in and the friends they've lost.For Ragatha it's her toxic positivity. She feels she has to keep the peace and stay positive no matter what, but that makes people think she's an insincere busybody and stay away from her, which drives her self-esteem into the gutter, even though she won't show it. For Jax it's his toxic negativity. He puts up the front of a comic archetype and keeps people at arm's length to avoid growing attached to them, because it then hurts that much more when they Abstract and are gone for good. As long as he plays to his archetype he can cope with the despair, so when he realizes he's getting too emotionally invested in anything he pauses, refreshes himself, and goes back to normal. Jax is performing this image, but it's an insincere front because he DOES care, he's just too afraid of getting hurt again to show it.Ragatha and Jax don't like each other for the same reason. Jax doesn't like Ragatha's insincerity, and Ragatha doesn't like Jax's constant trolling; his own form of insincerity.
>>152936936Just catbox it my frond.
>>152936775This fucker reminds me too much of Max.
>>152965876One problem. Goose said that Caine created Bubble.
>>152965051i guess he only ever saw the outside of them.
>>152967065>Omorithat's an Eva reference you baka
>>152966589shes not annoying about it
>>152961642Yeah I spotted that and like it too Also German Caine in this scene is good, perfectly encapsulates the German stereotypehttps://youtu.be/O6ELWOxoJJc?t=44s
>>152966589Unlike shitholes like /v/, we can actually separate the art from the artist. Goose could've been an annoying performative faggot but most here wouldn't give a shit because the show is great. As long as it doesn't bleed into his work, ofcourse.
>>152966738Somehow that lead to the entire animation industry inheriting Hussie's sense of humor...
>>152968455This board is no better than /v/.
>>152968455That's not what separating art from artist is you dumb cocksucker, that's you making an excuse for being a hypocrite
>>152968455Incorrect. I never separate art from artist. I want things to push my worldviews, simple as
>>152968907Boring
>>152967607>Frogposter has zero grasp of human emotions or psychologyRagatha does not have "toxic positivity," that's when you do shit like tell a paraplegic that it's part of god's plan.Ragatha has severe trauma from having to manage her mother's emotions to protect herself, which has made her a pathological people-pleaser. To her growing up the ability to ALWAYS know how others were feeling and get in front of/prevent extreme emotional states was a matter of survival which is why those behaviors are so ingrained.The cast helps her understand that they're not her mother and it's ok to tell them things they might not want to hear.Jax is in a state of complete delusion in every single episode except half of 8. He believes this is all a coma dream pf some kind. He doesn't treat anyone around him like a person because HE DOESN'T THINK THEY'RE PEOPLE. He thinks they're archetypes, flat characters to be done with however he pleases. Also he doesn't keep everyone at arms length because abstraction hurts (though it does), he does it because he has zero self esteem and is pathologically afraid of being "exposed" and mocked.Ragatha just thinks Jax is a dick because he acts like a dick, and Jax picks on Ragatha because she gives him a reaction. They're not foils.
>>152968927Yeah if you denied yourself art from anyone left of center you'd be pretty bored Don't think too hard about that though, you might realize something.
>>152969013Not the anon you're replying to, but you're a fucking retard, kek.
>>152969438excellent rebuttal, very well thought-out
>>152969450Alright, fine. Ragatha's insincerity is pointed out by multiple people, like Pomni and Gangle. Pomni especially doesn't appreciate being suffocated by Ragatha trying to guide her on how to feel. The fact that she wants people, whom she dislikes, to like her shows that a lot of it is performative. She fake laughs at Kaufmo's jokes, she does whatever it is that makes it easier to get through the day in the fucked situation she's in, even if she doesn't mean it. As for Jax, he very obviously understands that it's all real, he's the one who kept teasing Pomni about it in the first episode.>Jax very obviously understands this is all real, he's the one who keeps teasing Pomni about it in the first episode. He understands her want to escape, but teaches her his way of coping, because it's gotten him where he is thus far. What he doesn't believe are "real" are the adventures themselves, everything is reset by the end of it, so consequences don't matter, thus making it easier to just fuck around and do whatever you want during them. Keeping himself detached keeps him busy, keeps him going, keeps him from losing his mind, especially when there are actual consequences. The fact that you bought his whole "you are my playthings" speech shows you are genuinely autistic. Him contemplating the very real situation he's in in the latest episode is about the fact that there are consequences, Caine isn't going to go back to normal, and what they have to do has a chance to fuck things up forever, which obviously he doesn't want, shown by the fact that he pushed the red button.
>>152969576>Ragatha's insincerity is pointed out by multiple peoplestopped reading here, I'm not going to slog through an unformatted wall of you arguing with yourself instead of meReading comprehension is an important skill, work on it

>>152969615>Autist can't understand what exactly he thought wasn't real
>>152966759He wins
>>152969615I'm actually not sure what he meant by that or why he was freaking out when kinger was talking. Maybe I'm dumb, but it was very vague and I'm not gonna guess cause I will be wrong.
>>152969725>it's very vagueIt's really not vague at all.Jax wasn't kidding, he doesn't think this is real. It's a fundamental part of his ability to cope because if none of this is real then his actions have no consequences.But if it is real, if Ribbit and Kaufmo were real, if the terrible things he said and did actually did have consequences for other real people...Let's just say it's not surprising that Jax is hyperventilating and desperately trying not to abstract in that realization.
>>152969725He thought this was just another adventure, that he wasn't enjoying, that would eventually end, and didn't think they had to do anything special to finish it. Having to bring out Lucid Kinger shows that their situation is more fucked than he realized.
>>152969776>He thought this was just another adventureYou have the memory and literacy of a goldfish
>>152969776Does that imply jax was already aware of lucid kinger?
>>152969789He was proven right after the events of the seventh episode, at that point he's probably completely dissociated himself from believing anything that happens to him matters and he's still depressed about his fight with Pomni.>>152969799No, he wasn't aware and thought it was just bullshit, but when it turns out Pomni was right about Kinger and he starts spouting out stuff about C&A, Jax is forced to confront the fact that, yeah, they actually need to take care of Caine and the status quo won't just be reset at some point. He's also confronting the fact that the C&A stuff is real too.
>>152969818>Jax ONLY thinks the adventures are bullshit>but also was shocked about lucid KingerI know you're braindead but you understand the conflict here, right?The level of idiocy here is absolutely remarkable.
>>152969818Anon if your DEFINITELY SUPER RIGHT YOU'RE AN IDIOT IF YOU DON'T GET IT theory requires you to go "well uhh it's probably..." and then make shit up when confronted with the most basic flaws it's a shit theory and you need to stop posting

>>152969891>Then explain to me Jax's mental state after the Abel adventure.There is nothing inconsistent about Jax's mental state after the Abel adventureAt this point you're not even trying, you're just insisting on this idiotic interpretation that relies on you literally not remembering half of the show.Go watch the whole thing again you daft cunt.

>>152969907Anon, Jax thought the whole Abel adventure was fake, but then had a moment where he believed it was real (which caused him to press the red button), and then his initial assumption was proven correct. I'm not saying there's anything contradictory, you fucking retard. I'm saying that at that point he's been broken further into believing anything they go through is just pointless and is going to be reset. There's no escape, there's no real meaning to the adventures, Caine can not be stopped and they can't hope to. Lucid Kinger shatters that illusion.>>152969920He's genuinely a spastic, especially considering he's ignoring the fact that I quoted the show fucking verbatim and he says it's fake.
