*throws chair*
Isn't She Lovely is about Jax being a trans woman, and not about Pomni or funnybunny
cont from the last thread subject.i think all characters in the circus are just goose mind and personality aspects and the reason pomni and jax are in the "isn't she lovely?" sequence is just goose saying bye bye to her masc toxic mindset and becoming fully girl-pomni minded. that is my interpreration.
are there any character design sheets easily collected together? i want to draw but don't want to comb through episode by episode for refs
>>154232805We can also add Goose transitioning in 2017 to this
>>154232805saving this. thx lmao.
the song is actually what it is originally. Jax unknowingly impregnated Pomni while she was in his mind. This will be a big plot point in season 2
Ok
Wasted potential
>>154232827nooo!!! you where supposed to say crikey!!!
>>154232835Which character is that? Was she an NPC?
>>154232808Incorrect.
>>154232841Jax after her metamorphosis
Is Gangle the top or Zooble?
>>154232841im pretty sure is a edit. the og screenshot is kinger and his wife.
>>154232805>>154232808based
Personally I think Jax is a dude cause he looks cuter that way.
>>154232850switches. but obvs zooble tops in their fisrt times.
>>154232808Its not though.If it was, then why wouldn't Goose make his real life counterpart a woman?>>154232805None of this is in the finale, so none of this matters.At the end of the day, the show never made Jax out to be a woman, so he isn't a woman.
>>154232849>>154232857I'm not talking about the abstraction, I'm talking about the character on the left. Who is she??
>>154232808I'll believe you when you can explain to me why there is 25 scenes of him talking to Pomni in it and not just 100% solo Jax.
>>154232835>knew Jax the longest as Kinger has since lost his mind>would genuinely feel worse for Pomni reacting to it than the abstraction itselfWhy do people believe that the entire circus loved Jax? Sure they're bummed he abstracted but if they had to vote for the next abstraction he'd get all 5 votes
Jax would hate all of you
>>154232889His hate only makes my dick harder
>>154232873oh. idk man i dont remember this scene. probally is fan made and the abstracted char is ribbit.
>>154232873Yeah I don't know who that is, must be an easter egg.
>>154232889Maybe but I would like him, that's what matters!
>>154232901omg gangle hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiwho's the cyclops?
>>154232889the feeling is mutual. he is a bitch.
Jax is the male skin, btw.
Could Jax pull off a Goth chick look?
>>154232910cute moid bnnuy.
You redefining who or what Jax is is exactly why he and men in general have a hard time being vulnerable.
>>154232905Bro he's been there since day one? Everyone agrees his focus episode is one of the best ones.
>>154232921Well, it's possible...
>>154232835They should have used the forgotten abstracted characters to give Ragatha more depth.
>>154232929okay that got me, well played
>>154232925We’re not ready for that conversation
>>154232932Just looks like a late 2000s emo boy.
>>154232932That's just a goth guy.
pomiku
>>154232952I know, I just couldn't find any fanart of a goth Jax on short notice
>>154232925We didn't define him, god did
ragatha and her cute little room!
>>154232977...that we never got to see in the actual show!
THE MOMENT I went to do other things and waited I was immediately hit twice with responses, istg I'm gonna morb out or something what is this horrible timing thing.>>154230709>>154230922But also I'm absolutely bringing it up every chance I get because if I can't unsee it then nobody can either
>>154232985Did you just suggest something that would have stolen screentime from Jax? Blasphemy
I have a mighty need
>>154232977Man, I wish this wasn't blindboxed.
>>154232932I think the calm stoicism of a Goth chick would suit her.
fucking bbnnuuy....
>>154233005>hererm achtually
I wish I could enjoy femjax without it being a tranny thing
>>154232985Would've been neat to have some shorts of each member showing off their room. The fact we saw more of Kaufmo's room than most of the cast is insane.We didn't even get to see a pixel of Kinger's room
>>154232997>>154233009He's very cute.
would jax be more or less of a faggot if he came out of the closet
>>154232985its showing up in season 2 #Cope
>>154232879It's because Jax spends most of his time with Pomni once he starts to get focus because she's the main character and the story's told through her perspective (well, most of it). Pomni IS in 25 shots, but Jax either isn't directly talking to her or the focus in't the two of them in 6 shots. So there are 19 shots that you can say the context are Jax's and Pomni's relationship/friendship (because in some of them he's just talking to her), which is still a lot, but now it's less than half of the montage. Also the last ten shots are JUST Jax. If it was about Pomni, you'd think she'd be included in those somewhere. There are also no solo shots of anyone besides Jax, because it's about Jax.
>>154232786This show is highly satanic because it was made by a trannysexualised
>>154233014The point is, Goth would help Jax calm down.
>>154233032It's about Jax and his bond with Pomni. It's not that hard.
>>154232999trips checkIts a sacrifice i'm willing to make
>>154233029jax would be getting pounded by cock one minute and then throw a cartoon bomb at gangle the next
>>154233031The Ragaseason
Hmm. Yeah that checks out
>>154233042Then why wasn't the entire montage just them? Why are there shots of Jax from scenes Pomni wasn't in? Why are Gangle, Zooble and Ragatha in some shots?
>>154233029this bunigga ZESTY
>>154233055Because it's about him AND his bond with Pomni.
>>154233029Truthfully he seems Sissy Sub for Pomni.
Too many zoobles walk among us.
>>154233061Then why wasn't she in any of the final shots? Why not include her reaching her hand out to him?
>>154233055There's only two shots of Zooble and both those shots Jax is talking to Pomni and ignoring the cash piano.
>>154233079Like I said there are also shots of Pomni where she isn't relevant.
I need to shit
>>154233073Based ZoobleCHVDs beating the the sissy JaxPUPs
>>154233095Not yet
>make a montage>it's about the guy who's dying and the person who is by his side as his mind completely fades away>this is too complex for some people
be real with me, if you had never seen Goose's stagnant life post, would you have come to the same message by just watching the show in isolation?
>>154231433Thank God I skimmed the previous thread. This is easily the best rewrite I've read.
>>154233113>Make shit up>Shit your pants when people don't come to the same conclusion
You sit here and argue rather than just asking Goose. Why do you not just ask Goose.
>>154233125>Just ask the chronic liar
>>154233122Why are you describing yourself?
>Character driven showYou can have characters develop and advance the plot at the same time, otherwise it's just narrative stagnation.>PomniAccountant, 25, wants to do some risky stuff, adventure out - okay, you could of had her adventure OUT even more in the way earlier episodes. She barely ever interacted with Kinger after ep 3 when learning he has not only been here the longest of them all but also turns sane in the dark which somehow none of the other cast knew?? You cannot tell me there was never one moment where Jax threw gangle with him somewhere dark for fun, or Ragatha wanting to hang out with him just in case and giving her something to do even before pomni showed up to the circus.>RagathaMommy trope character that barely got explored, left in the back to rot and she just turned out all fine and dandy in the finale despite everything falling apart? You would think she would be the one to abstract before Jax or even be the one to interact with abstractionJax to find out what pomni did.>Zooble and gangleone character here barely did anything *cough* zooble *Cough* the entire show, she sat out and caine, the AI plot device had to literally go "Nah, get your ass into an episode" the other character is just meh and wasted potential>KingerPlot device, not even much of a character, not much of any interactions besides either programmer at the last two episodes or was just therapist for someone else.
>>154233125Goose is allergic to giving concrete answers to meaningful questions and even if she did people won't believe her
This thread is dumb. You guys were cooler back in early May.
>>154233117one way or another i'd gather that the moral of the story is that it's ultimately your choice to make the best of circumstances out of your control through your relationships with others, or something to that effect
fucking bratty bun
>>154233117Hard to say it would be any diferent.I would come to have a way better and healthier discussion of the show and be more freeminded in the interpretation.
>>154233157A shit ending will do that.
>>154233095Then Take That Shit!!!!
my oc is already forgotten...
i'm going to sleep
>>154233175Good reference lmao
>>154233135Jax showJax franchise
>>154233182Who's your oc?
Afternoon threads are too stressful. I'm gonna go read Waiting For Open Eyes until you all calm down.
>>154233157I FUCKING warned you all about the show being Jax focused show is a terrible thing. Notice how all jax discussion is shitflinging because the character is heavily divisive.Now notice how all discussion of the other characters are chill, nice, and produce fun fanart.
Ragatha's hooves.
>>154233223Add "The Place Where Your Voice Remains" to your watch later list. It's got a lot of potential so far, even if Caine is OOC as fuck.
>>154233250I wonder what her reaction would be if you called them that in front of her.
>>154233202Jax wasn't that bad, i could see how someone, anyone at all would act like him if they were trapped in the circus or even how pomni did either in the earliest episodes for her.But the entire SOMA ending is just plain bad, along with Pomni acting retarded by not exploring more around the circus or talking with Kinger somewhere dark that could've figured a whole lot of this out.Kinger being sane in the dark is okay, but how did no one else figure this out in all their time there and on adventures? For years for some like Rags or months for others, not a single one figured that out about him.
>>154233121Holy shit you're right, god damn
>>154231856 #Yeah this is good stuff. It still has the stakes and the pain but actually has resolution to jax (instead of the movie just forgetting about him in the last 15)And yeah I think hard to discribe how I am feeling about goose. I dont want to shit all over her. What she has made is good. But its clear the inexperience caught upnto her and the final narrative suffered. She just needed a help and there is nothing wrong with asking for help. I think she got burnt out and wanted to move on, which I understand. But she also has to understand she its not just her any more its a whole team. I pray she one day realizes this and can love TDAC again.
>>154233257Okie Dokie
>the movie poster and promo material has nothing to do with the actual movieDisappointed desu. Would of loved mask off jax and or the abstractions from the cellar coming up and fucking with everyone
>>154233341You didn't like your "miserable, experimental 'fuck it we ball'" episode?
>>154232820>>154232820please respond
Glitch is expading to gaming.What are the chances of have a TADC sequel videogame in the near future?
>>154233341I honestly thought that Jax was going to be a final boss and everyone was had to survive his fucked up world.
>>154233374It's probably going to be a Gameoverse game, since that makes sense.What would a TADC game even look like?
>>154233374Prequel or midquel. They won't make a game where you can't play as Jax.
>jax: oh Pomni you *somehow* saved me from abstraction >P: anytime jax im here for you>J: Pomni i......i love you>P: i love you too jax>J: *leans in for a kiss*>P:.....as a friend>J: *jax abstracts again*
>>154233387Point and click exploration/edutainment game like they used to make.
>>154233121Damn you're right. Now I feel even worse about what we got instead.
>>154233387Platformer where you go on Caine's adventures is easy enough to make a game out of.
>Abel editionSo the first iterance of the IA was Caine, which was the bad guy and even breaks containment.But then he absorbs the blue dot (abel) which is the good, stable one.But in the last episode he gets rid of Abel which is the good part, and becomes... good?I don't get it
Ragatha spin-off confirmed coming in late 2027. Screencap this
>>154233425You mean Jonesy.
>>154233423Don't worry, neither did Goose
>>154233283>Jax wasn't that bad>But the entire SOMA ending is just plain badLiterally a peabrained tranny takeThe whole point of episode 7 was to show how contrived the idea of them being able to escape was. You’d realize this if you weren’t on HRT and literally shrinking your brain
Now that it's all over, did you enjoy the experience? Or are you left wanting?
>>154233135>Accountant, 25, wants to do some risky stuff, adventure out - okay, you could of had her adventure OUT even more in the way earlier episodes.This made me realize making her into Urbex was absolutely pointless (other than giving a flimsy reason for how she found the C&A building), you're telling me that she straight up stopped giving a shit about finding an exit and thrill seeking right after her void disadventure in the pilot? Unless it's about cave exploring Jax's DEEP DARK MINDHOLE, of course
>>154233445I loved following the show. Hate how it ended.
>>154233423>which was the bad guy Hardly the bad guy, until he ate blue dot.>Get created out of nothing>make some shit>get locked away forever for no reason you can understand
>>154233433He will be one of the potential love interests. Jonesey and Fishguy will attempt to kill each other throughout the season to earn her love. Meanwhile she has on and off makeout sessions with Pomni
I think we should abandon the idea of getting a good ending.
>>154233445>did you enjoy the experience? Or are you left wanting?Both actually, i liked what was there but there was a lot that could have been there.
>>154233445Definitely left wanting, 9 episodes was way too short for a character-driven show and a cast that large.I did enjoy my time though, but so much shit didn't get brought up again that it honestly felt like Goose just threw a bunch of shit at the wall to see what stuck despite everything being "planned"
>>154233469I already did the moment the leaks dropped
>>154233423Yeah I'm not fully understanding that. The Red AI was already producing bad outputs before it absorbed the Blue AI. That's why it was sealed away in a box in the first place. Absorbing the Blue AI wasn't what made the Red AI bad, it was already bad!
>>154233445>>154233454Same boatThere was nothing compelling or good about the finale. Notice that 90% of this thread is STILL discussion about Jax’s scenes and whether or not he’s trans (spoiler: he is you stupid fucks, Leroy is dressed like a boy in the end scenes because Glitch and Cooper didn’t want the film to get censored which it would have)I really don’t know what I expected, but tranny creator always means tranny show I guess
>No anchorFine, I'll do it myself!OC Anchorwhiteboardhttps://r7.whiteboardfox.com/76884271-6634-6134+/co/llectionhttps://co.llection.pics/post/list/the_amazing_digital_circus/1+NSFW thread>>>/trash/83360410Nega-tivity subedition
>>154233469I had theories.... how am i supposed to let that go.
He's dressed like a boy because he is a boy, dumbass.
>>154233445My experience was>Pilot to episode 4, pretty fun but aimless>Episode 5, finally some character conflict, maybe this is going somewhere>6-7-8, still flawed but the ending could make or break it>Episode 9, it broke
>>154233445could have been better, could have been worse
>>154233493I don't know if the Red AI was bad so much as it wasn't putting out the results that they wanted. We also don't know the timeline in relation to Mike's diagnosis; Caine could've been made first with Kinger being able to, in retrospect, contribute Mike's influence on his own work as being from the tumor and then the development of the Blue AI could've come after they found out about it.
>>154233442>Literaly tranny take??? I just said he wasn't that bad, it was basically an "eh he's okay" take from me, and again said i could see people act like him when trapped there.>The whole point of episode 7 was to show how contrived the idea of them being able to escape wasI already knew that, the point of SOMA being bad has to do with plenty of plot holes for them being brain scans/Data not only that but can conjure up shit like Kinger did with a butterfly even before Caine gave them even more admin privileges. Abstractions = bad dataBad data can be fixed especially with an AI Which went even more rogue after scrolling the internet. Plenty of the abstractions can be fixed whether the humans like ribbit, jax, kauf, scratch, etc wanted to or not. There would have to be saves as well, regularly updated no doubt since Caine sees and hears all.
>>154233423We wouldn’t have had time to see Jax in a dress again if Cooper explained it properly! Why would a show called The Amazing Digital Circus spend time on anything digital, the show is clearly about Jax!
I just hope that with the advent of TADC Fortnite, we can get some shit for MY hobbies like TADC MTG Secret Lair
Do you guys think Pomni's nipples are red and blue? Which side is blue? Which is red?
>>154233512>I had theories....Holy fucking shit anon that got me kek
>>154233502>spoiler: he is you stupid fucks, Leroy is dressed like a boy in the end scenes because Glitch and Cooper didn’t want the film to get censored which it would have)Cool I like to make shit up too. You're retarded.
I am now remembering the "everyone escapes except Jax who refuses to leave so Pomni stays with him" ending theory
>>154233502That's the great thing about trans characters. You can just lie and make shit up and call anyone that disagrees stupid.
I didn't like Jax abstracting offscreen at first, but it grew on me after the fact.If we take Abstraction as a metaphor for suicide, which in Jax's case it absolutely was, it makes sense. If you lose someone to suicide, you probably won't be the one to discover them, or they probably won't dramatically off themselves in front of you. Some day, they'll just walk away from you for the last time and that will be that. You're just left constantly asking yourself, Could I have stopped this? Why didn't I go after them?It makes perfect sense for how suicide and abstraction always leave gaping wounds in a community.
>>154233546That's our Jaxxy-boy!
>>154233543You were supposed to make something up after saying that.
>>154233449Exactly this as well, which again, why the fuck did she not talk more with Kinger? She figured out about darkness makes him sane, he's been here the longest. She explored places and everything, enjoyed Kinger too which straight up surprised the rest when she said that. Rooms she never explored, didn't go to take a peak into other crossed off rooms like kauf or others? Grabbing a key for those wouldn't be hard from Jax.
>>154233423Consuming blue was an act of artistic envy.Once Caine realized his insecurity got him killed, rather than his incompetence, he decided to stop stealing blue's work and start listening to his audience.
honestly, i'm not really convinced that anyone in the circus is that close to each other except maybe pomni looking up to kingerthis show needed more filler
>>154233543>>154233550>being this in denialWhy do I get the feeling that you fuckers are the same ones that insist you can cross dress and still be totally cis/straight?>making shit upIt’s the obvious and logical conclusion if you have two brain cells to rub together. You can only push the envelope so far, if the ending had Leroy explicitly presenting as female it would have been banned in half the countries it was shown in, and that’s a fact.
>>154233590Yeah, nobody seemed to know anything about anyone before the bar scene and even then they only got a very superficial look at one another, the kind that you would give to a group of people you're likely only going to meet once, not people you've spent years with already and will be spending untold amount of time with later.
>>154233423https://youtu.be/02gfh-h6mTQ
>>154233573That makes sense.
>>154233590>>154233604That was kind of a thing the show was trying to do, the fact that some of these people had been stuck together for years, they never really tried to build a community with each other.
>>154233590It definitely needed way more but>not really convinced that anyone in the circus is that close to each otherGangle and zooble are a definiteRagatha seriously should of had Kinger since they have been there the longest, so no reason Ragatha should ever feel lonely or even not know he can be sane in certain conditionsPomni and Jax i saw coming since Pomni was a thrill seeker in a way by exploring places enjoying that, then Jax being the one to completely toe near the line with a lot of stuff even on adventures.
>>154233557I mean I get what it was going for but it's still stupid from a watching experience point of view
>>154233557This, but then it was ruined a little by the scene in Jax's mind after>suicide leaves you with no closure - just a gaping hole in the community>except the union-mandated half-hour tour you're allowed inside their mind to gain a full understanding of their person and also talk to them personally, give them a hug, and negotiate any outstanding debts you have so you can figure out who REALLY owes who five bucks
>>154233573Nta but it still feels like the blue ai got punished for Caine's retardation.
>>154233547>leaving your whole life behind for a man you knew for 4 weeksHoly retarded
>>154233595>you can cross dress and still be totally cis/straight?Dresses are not exclusively for women.
>>154233524Ebin lampshading gooseworx, now where the fuck is my carnival?
>>154233639Don't worry, blue is living its best life out in the void spamming out triangles forever.
>>154233642Iirc some people were saying pomni was an ai because she had blue and red in her design like caine and the blue ai so she couldn't leave because she was an npc.Still retarded.
>>154233595>it would have been banned in half the countries it was shown in, and that’s a fact.Glitch already refused to censor the movie for other countries.
>>154233595>it would have been banned in half the countries it was shown inBro the movie has Zooble and Gangle fucking at the end
>>154233627>Pomni was a thrill seekerWas she though?She shows two (2) thrill seeking behaviours in the show>talking about how sometimes explored places that were kind of maybe dangerous sometimes>letting herself get groomed by Jax to have a totally different personality in episode 6, which was then immediately dropped
I want to pre order that Jax statue. Where can I find it.
>I have literally never seen you with a tailWhy has she been staring at his ass?
>>154233636I see that more as a visual metaphor for Pomni working through her own thoughts and feelings on Jax, making peace with the good and bad parts of him. The mental tour is just more visually exciting than Pomni putting it together through conversations over the course of years.I do think it's good because it showed Jax tried to do it the "right" way- he tried to push everyone away so when he finally did it, they wouldn't miss him, but that's just not possible. And that even after doing it, he regrets it but can't take it back.I read an article once about people who survive suicide attempts and how they get a sudden sense of clarity, but it's too late. Someone who survived jumping off a bridge said later "My feet had just left the bridge, when suddenly, it all became clear. I could see a solution and way forward through all my problems in life, except for the fact that I had just jumped." I think the scene in Jax's head is necessary to show the full breadth and weight of such a thing.
>>154233590If I ignored Pomni's final 1-to-1 with Ragatha, I'd say Kinger is the closest thing she has to a best friend, with Jax in second and Rags as third. Hell, in the movie she vents to him about her personal failure while the Ragatha scene is mostly about Jax's history. Even more, the one who saves Pomni at the end is Zooble.

>>154233733Kingdom Hearts energy in that statue
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKI WANT TO FUCK POMNI
>>154233726I can't see it a scene where someone literally talks to and learns material things from a dead person they didn't know before as a metaphor for just working through thoughts and feelings - unless the message of the series is "write fanfic about dead people"It just doesn't work for me.
>>154233753we know Ragatha
>>154233753Ragatha...
We never found out why Jax collects keys.
>>154233776We also never found out what happens when he holds his breath
>>154233688She says it was what she enjoyed in episode 5 at the bar
Jester Pomni is a miracle of the universe, tadc would have instantly flop if frogni happen.
EVERYONE GET THE FUCK ON THE FLOOR THIS IS A STICK UP!!!!!Alright you fucking nerds, hand over your waifus, plushies, memes and and other merch too and nobody will get hurt. I'll be taking your shitty oc drawings too, fuckfacesI'd take your dignity but you don't got any.
>>154233726You don't need Pomni for that though, just have her actually work through her feelings on screen instead of a half baked metaphor, and leave the Jax flashback scenes independent of her, maybe have it secretly from Ragatha's POV and it just be Ragatha thinking "how did things go so wrong?"
We never found out why Jax can't open his teeth without shouting.
>>154232997I need.

>>154233661>Pomni AII unironically wanted to believe in it because I thought Pomni was too bland for it not to be intentional, I even made an incredibly reaching schizopost about if anyone wants to mock good ol' retardo theories (I also miss the "Jax is an NPC" times)https://desuarchive.org/co/thread/153665709/#153679077

>>154233847Share them now

>>154233797you'll have to take my ragaplushie from my cold dead hands!
>>154233509i made a 2 part comic about me and my greatest rival and my favorite ragathug
>>154233445I really liked the show, it was a great experience, but I would have liked if it was longer and gave the characters more depth
>>154233509and heres part 2
>>154233776They are loot. Like Pomni says, "It's not like we have any use for money."
>>154233445Why not both?
>>154233785What she says, and what is shown, are very differentIt's a bit of a sleeper problem but I lowkey think Pomni is one of the most poorly written characters in the series because it's trying to do an arc with her developing from being hysterical and useless, to quickly developing into a sensible leadership role who leverages her compassion to adapt quickly. That's a great plot IDEA but I don't think it's delivered on well because of how passive she is throughout the entire series up until like, episode 8.
>>154233797heres one for ya
>>154233852Well shit, now that I'm being put on the spot the only ones I can think of off the top of my head are Instinctual Behavior (and it's smut side story Acting On Instinct) and a few brief scenes in Waiting For Open Eyes. I think At Your Service might have had some petting? I can't remember but you should read that one anyways because it's the hottest funnybunny smut fic on the market right now and it's not even close
>>154233445i want more because it was absolutely too short, but i also enjoyed myself a tonthis show is the first to become an intense hyperfixation for me and basically changed me forever, i'm sure i'll move on eventually but it'll always have a special place in my heart despite its flaws
You know what I never considered that Pomni wasn't really into urbex, she just wanted some excitement and connection in her life
>>154233884polly played himself... heh
>>154233902I actually agree with this. For me, it felt like a switch was randomly flipped somewhere in the middle of the series where Pomni went from "the one who's anxious all the time" to "the only one who's actually mentally stable"
>>154233938she's too much of a hambeast for me to buy it
>>154233913I'm not really one for smut at all but thank you. Instinctual Behavior is on my list so I should've expected it to have some ear fondling.
>>154233942it was just a prank bro
>>154233902>What she says, and what is shown, are very differentRight but i'm just sticking to what she says, which was exactly that>I lowkey think Pomni is one of the most poorly written charactersShe isn't a well written character honestly, due to mainly feeling like a plot device to push anything forward>Only one that knows about Kingers darkness = sanityRags really should've known about this as well and even more>Only one that noticed abel out of anyone elseThis should've been Zooble instead if i'm being honest to give her something to do for once>Figures out the exit with the computer being there, not even SaneKinger knew?she basically just figures everything out that somehow none of the others knew but should've. I still put Kinger as the worst character with Zooble close by, cause he really is just a plot device and Zooble has nothing to them. Pomni instead just switched from Anxious but secretly thrill seeker, to mentally the most stable and figures out lots of the answers to the problems.
>>154233445I enjoyed, hated, then loved this show. Wish it had more episodes
Got my individual boxed Abstract collection pulls, got super lucky. Got Ragatha for my first pull (wanted her most), got Caine second (wanted him second) and then got the Rare Queenie. All in all, massive win.I do admittedly feel really bad for getting tortore porn merch of Ragatha.... but it is a really cool design.
>>154233902>>154233950NTA and while I agree that Pomni is one of the weaker characters in the cast I think I need to go to bat for her when it comes to>a switch was randomly flipped somewhere in the middle of the series where Pomni went from "the one who's anxious all the time" to "the only one who's actually mentally stable"eps. 2-4 were arguably Pomni's arc. She's terrified and anxious and she realizes she in fact does have a community in the Circus. Ep. 4 is where she arguably tries to take what she's learned from Gummigoo and Kinger to help Gangle (and yes the "we're doing this again" line should've been cut, it was a glaring example of undercutting sincerity with irony). IMO there should've been one more episode for Pomni to sort of solidify her as the "leader" to herself and the viewers, ideally one where she shares the spotlight with Zooble, because yeah there's quite a leap from "I'll help Gangle feel better" to "I WAS SUPPOSED TO FILL JAX'S DARK SOUL WITH LIIIIIIIGHT".
>>154234008Jealous, I wanted Ragatha. She's got like the best one next to Gangle.
>>154234030>2-4 were arguably Pomni's arcAnd therein lies the problem. Pomni's arc should have happened between eps 2-9 (in a 12 episode long series). Jax's character was the only one that actually got an appropriate amount of time dedicated to his story. Each character really needed that same amount of time. And I say that as a fervent Jaxfag.
>>154234008>>154234039The abstractgatha one makes me so sad thst I dont think i could stand looking at it in my room. I'm excited to get the merch of her room tho!!>>154232977
>>154234008but do you have the rare ragatha with kung-fu grip?
>>154233950>switchAlmost like she remembered how to be a professional accountant.
Everyone shut the fuck up for five minutes and post cactus
>[To Gangle] We're doing another one of these.>[To Ragatha] You don't have to hype me up, I'm not a childBITCHmi my beloved...
>>154234077FUCK BARBRA
>>154234030>Jax dies>WHAT AM I FIGHTING FOR?>WHAT AM I FIGHTING FOOOOOOOOOORRRR?
>>154234080>RagathaTo be fair, she literally was treating her like a child for like four episodes straight.
>>154234077i need to see those pointy nips
>>154234054It's the tears on it that I didn't notice before in the promo pics, that's what got me feeling guilty.Gonna hug her out of it though while another Stevie Wonder song plays and she'll be fine.
>>154233509I can't decide whether to make her regular toy size, or about as tall as Pomni.
Post old and busted theories, I only Remember Jax is an NPC/Jax is a dev
>>154234098Because Pomni was acting like a scared little child. Also who wouldn't want Ragatha to be their mommy
>>154234130>rainbow horse jar.jpg
>>154234085Fuck you, she's a war photographer. Now give me more pictures of her beating up Vinny.
>>154234130This is like our 3rd horse OC. We can make a herd.
>>154234146She doesn't need to be coddled, she just needed to be grounded in reality>Yes this is where we are now, yes this is all happening, get the fuck over it and do what you can
>>154234130I'd say Pomni sized
>>154234174She doesn't need that lol she just needed to know that she's with real people and in their own ways they do care about each other.
>>154234193okay? and thats right with grounding in reality instead of shaking scared all around nonstop still or needing someone to stick by her side 24/7 to go "oooh everything will be okaaaay" no it's not okay really, no actual escape, so stay in reality and instead do what you can.
>>154234062No, I wasn't able to pull for that one, but I did at least get the "Something of a scientist" variant
>>154234165>she's a war photographer.You think she knows Frank West?Also I meant what I said literally
That guy last thread shitposting with gangle i dont like him very much, i miss the real gangleposter
>>154234218what the-
>>154234217She didn't need any of what you said though, she just chilled out on her own.
>>154234235thats exactly where Ragatha went wrong cause she treated her like a child.
>>154234250Wow they really don't care about spoilers anymore
>>154233509Youuuuuuu rat fucking sock cuckers, which one of you did this and how dare you
>>154234217>ugggghhh stop being too nice Ragatha it's ANNOYING>omg Jax did you just tie gangle to the bottom of a piranha tank? you're so cool I feel so much better around you
>>154234218>"In short, leaks are down, merch sales are up, and hype for The Amazing Digital Circus have never been higher.">"Wonderful news Ragatha, in fact it's the reason we're collabing with Fortnite.">"...what.">"They made an offer we couldn't ignore.">"Why wasn't I told?">"The collab is off if you're in it.">"You can't do this to me..."
>>154234250I love/hate how the teasers and the movie itself until the very last second make it look like Pomni is going to rescue Jax
>>154234218>you and I jax are not so different. I chose the path of the people please you chose to be an abuser. We could rule this circus you and I
>>154234315I never defended jax lol Jax pushes it too far in one way just as Ragatha does her own>Just have fun! Go all out who cares anymore?! Stop caring!vs>Ohhh let me coddle you foweva~ Must be a poor scared person that needs to be reminded this is all okay~ It'll be okay~
>>154234174This is exactly why she got attached to Jax so easily
>>154233509Reposting since i saw some people posting a old version of it last thread
Whomst've is this Ragatha you guys keep mentioning? I think I missed an episode
>>154234315There's nothing wrong with being nice. But Ragatha was ignoring Pomni's feelings and not just letting her be upset about the whole being trapped thing.
>>154234354>I think I missed an episodeThat's okay, Goose missed like three when she was making the series
>>154234250Honestly, there's really no sense of urgency in the movie when you think about it, and the posters just lied. all they had to do was just camp until caine revived himself. The plot would've made more sense if Jax abstracted near a critical programming node , further deteriorating the circus, forcing the others to enter his mind to stop it. It's all Kojima style false advertising
>>154234366I know this is shitty bait for tourists but the poster shows you entering inside of Jax mind and thats exactly what we do for half the movie
Honestly, when I saw the first leaked clip (Pomni talking to Jax under the lamp) I had no idea he had already abstracted. I thought they were just locked in a dark room together while one of the other abstractions escaped from the cellar and was running wild through the circus.When Jax started panicking, I thought THAT was when he hit his limit and was going to abstract in Pomni's arms.
>>154234382The butterflies+Kaufmo's scribbles+Ribbit's hands made it look like the abstractions were going to go haywire
Should've had both Rags and Jax abstract so they all have to actually split up to fix both while the circus deteriorates>Pomni and Gangle go into Jax's mind>Zooble and Kinger go into Ragatha'sWhile all this is happening you've got a possible caine returning from the void, not fully deleted, but corrupted and piecing himself back together while learning more of humans.Then when it looks like all is lost, the gang even glitching and about to be fucked over, bubbles and caine are back having been able to fix what was lost along with Jax and Ragatha returned to normal same with the circus, you get them having full control as well still from caine and learn of their real lives too.
>>154234419Thats exactly what happened to him, well not exactly befause that was more of a metaphorical abstraction than a literal one, but it is supposed to represent his mind being wiped away
>>154233832>I thought Pomni was too bland for it not to be intentional,Now we know goose just sucks at writing lmao.
>>154234337>>154234357my point is she seems to push back harder against Ragatha for being nice in the wrong way than she does against Jax
>>154234424Not really? Why were you even expecting something like that anyway? TADC never had these kind of character fights aside from the guns episode
>>154234337>Ohhh let me coddle you foweva~ Must be a poor scared person that needs to be reminded this is all okay~ It'll be okay~I say and want this
>>154234437Yeah, but I had no idea she was IN his mind because he was stood there talking to her. Also I couldn't understand what they were saying.
He's still in there
>>154234382>shows you entering inside of Jax mind and thats exactly what we do for half the movieit also heavily implies that the others would enter as well, yet they did jackshit aside from conjuring shit and rescuing Pomni. In the end, it was just Pomni, she failed to save him and barely got rescued, all she did was calm him down. Again, considering Caine auto revived on his own, no one needed to chase or contain Jax, hence the plot being meaningless in the end. The fan fiction theories ended up being better than the final product.
>>154234454Pomni started beating jax to make him come back to his senses how did she pushed ragatha back harder
>>154234382What are the two keyholes supposed to represent
>>154234436>Jaxfags desperate to have someone go down with him and then have him return to normalain't happening, amigo
>>154234465Well it was already contextually implied by the rest of the show that they wouldnt do that considering literally everyone aside from Pomni already gave up on him long ago>>154234475The doors thing probably
>>154234471I'm talking early on, before she turned him into her project bf
>>154234454This was to be expected when pomni a fucking thrill seeker, do you think she's gonna go the way of Ragatha to play pretend nice? Or head towards jax who is pretending as well, but trying to find some fun despite how fucked a bit can be?
micropeen-havin jax getting a balljob from zooble would've saved him from abstracting btw
>>154234456>Character fightNever said anything about that, with Caine gone anything could have happened. The abstractions could get loose or that the gang could start doing weird shit with their conjuring including summoning dead loved ones (who are a bunch of code just like them anyway).
>>154234502Don't you have a Vietnamese boy to fondle
>>154234477This makes it more than just a jax movie you retard, it gives more interaction since they're split with two characters that have barely hung out at all in the series, Ragatha actually gets more shit than what she got in the actual finale, bubbles doing something for once.
>>154234494Except Ragatha is also trying to have fun, she plays along with the adventures just as much as Jax, if not more. Jax didn't try to have fun in the anime or spudsy's adventures
>>154234489Jax was initially more fun to be around for Pomni while Ragatha had a weird vibe about being supposedly fake nice to her, her treating her like a child in episode 2 did not help thatThat was of course before she knew Jax was also putting on a mask >>154234509Sounds like shitty fanfiction m8, but you are free to write it out if you think it has potential
>>154234482Zooble saying "We're not going to let you wander off and abstract" Doesn't exactly sound like everyone aside from Pomni already giving up on him
>>154234448I even copemaxxed with>explains why she bonds so soon with Kinger while even Ragatha couldn't, he could be the one who reprogrammed her in secretI genuinely thought Kinger was intentionally hiding things until Pomni came along for that very reason
>>154234482>literally everyone aside from Pomni already gave up on him long agoanon>ep8>Zooble: "hey, that include you too">Jax, Zooble ,Ragatha, Gangle get tortured together to distract Caine it's pretty clear the script changed for ep 9 sometime last year , otherwise this is just bad writing or Goose needs to get tested for dementia
>>154234518god i wish. wanna volunteer?
>>154234522Ragatha doesn't toe the line, thrill seekers, especially new ones that kind of enjoy it like pomni want to go a tiny bit further for enjoyment. Obviously she was never gonna fully go the way Jax does, but it was enjoyable for her in certain parts seen in 5 and 6.
>>154234527>shitty fanficWhatever dude, it was a common prediction when the poster dropped
I'm working on a Caine/Ragatha fic, and the next chapter I wrote is a little under twice as long as the previous ones: https://pastebin.com/raw/9j7Lr2iRBefore I publish, should I split it into two? I'd probably end the first chapter with Ragatha going to bed, because that's halfway through and a natural stopping point. Here are the previous chapters: https://ao3.org/works/77085861/
I like how there's this one dude permanently posted ITT defending the ending and calling anyone who disliked it a tourist or someone mad about their headcanon not being real.
>>154234494>go the way of Ragatha to play pretend nicechrist, we still have people in there who think Ragatha's kindness is fake?
>>154234529>>154234533One scene in 8 episodes of where they do not care about jax well being at all aside from the little clownMight i remind you that Jax was actually getting better and more cooperative before everything went to shit and got ruined (thanks exclusively to Pomni since the others just let him do whatever the fuck he wanted)Having one moment where two characters that previously fight alot care about eachother in a moment they are alone does not mean that suddenly zooble would move mountains fo save that guy in the same way Pomni does
>>154234568You know what i mean, not the one thinking shes total fucking evil in secret
>>154234546Im sure it was>>154234563Theres plenty of people here that like the ending, im the only one stupid enough to argue with retards like youSorry for bursting your safe space
>>154234475The boy's holes
>>154234544But Pomni said she prefers the more chill adventures. Yeah she enjoyed the gun adventure but that was a matter of circumstance and Jax convincing her that its fun, not her actual preferenceWe see this by seeing how much she enjoys the relaxing adventures at the end with Ragatha and her friends
I liked the ending
>>154234587what did you mean then? because "pretend nice" sure sounds like you think her kindness is fake
>>154234541im 5'3 and flip would that count?
>>154234601She says she prefers them, but not that she doesn't want to try out other bigger thrills at least once to get the feel of it. It's why she enjoyed the gun one till the end, Jax was able to convince and she had a blast, literally, till the end of it.
>>154234597The Amazing reading comprehension, also learn2apostrophe
>>154234601Pomni can like multiple things, she initally bonded with Jax better but that doesnt mean she hated ragatha like ragatha thought she didThe fake positivity and treating her like a kid did rub her off but that doesnt make you hate anyone (unless they are really obnoxious about it)
>>154234598
>>154234617By pretend nice i mean what she keeps up like everything is totally okay, nothing is wrong! I got this! thats pretend nice, pretend upbeat.
In a dire situation i'd rather someone at least try to be positive even if its not 100% genuine than someone who bullies others and tries his hardest to be an edgy tryhard t b h
>>154234633Come with an actual argument or fuck off>>154234617Hes not wrong, ragatha isnt fake nice she really is a kind person but she is too positive when she doesnt need to be and when she really shouldn't beI guess "fake positivity" would be a better term to describe it
>>154234662and that would be you but that's not pomni that may not even be for some of the people in the thread if they were a copy of themselves with a insane makeover and stuck in a digital world.
>>154234662Its not a black and white issue. You can be positive when you think it would help other people but if you are all of the time even in situations you shouldnt you gonna start pissing people off and having others think you are fake.You guys never had a school mate that didnt do anything wrong per se but was so annoyingly positive all of the time it just ticked you off?
She misses her borger.
>>154234688Well in the end she did learn to appreciate Ragatha, that was one of the themes of the ending, and I'm sure many anons here would as well
>>154234643the word you're looking for there is "happiness" or "positivity." she acts overly positive and happier than she is because she cares about the others and doesn't want anyone to worry about her
>>154234695At most it would be a mild thought of annoyance in my head. But the people who actively started shit with others pissed me off 100% more, no matter how likeable they seemed.
>>154234719Mild annoyance sure but it can actually start to get you mad if they do all of the time and at the wrong timesPeople like honesty and if they notice you are being honest with your emotions to them they are going to either wonder whats wrong with you or whats wrong with themRagatha never crossed that line to Pomni (which is why she doesnt and never hated her) but probably did for Jax
>>154234718Which is all apart of pretending to be nice, pretending positivity, pretending happiness, it's all apart of the same shit with being acting nice.Did she not let a little loose in 5 and 6 with what she said with Jax then backtrack with being fake nice? Fake kindness?
>>154234747You arent*
i would let ragatha kill me with kindness
>>154234747>Ragatha never crossed that line to Pomni (which is why she doesnt and never hated her) but probably did for JaxKind of hypocritical of him to hold her fakeness against her all things considered
>>154234750>Did she not let a little loose in 5 and 6 with what she said with Jax then backtrack with being fake nice? Fake kindness?NTA but I think she was sincerely sorry that she made Jax think that she was holding Ribbit over him.
>>154234747NTA but i think it was more like Pomni sort of figured that out about her and why she was always out of line of fire with Ragatha so none of that would happen, also with treating her like a kid.
>>154233374It's most likely for Gameoverse.There are other projects Glitch is working on and as of now there is not a focus on more TADC content beyond toy lines. Maybe a few years down the line TADC may come back but why would Gooseworx want to do that when she has so many other gloinks to share with us that she has created.I predict Gooseworx will return but do NOT expect her return to be TADC
>>154234776Kind of half and half cause it was clearly something she wanted to say back at him, but did realize "ah shit, i really stepped over the line" i don't think she actually regrets it just regrets stepping over the line that would lead to worse for herself.
Being fake positive is not some kind of grave crime but it will have people avoiding you if you do it too hard and they notice itI know for a fact i avoided people like this irl, would rather have a conversation with someone that can actually be honest with their emotions>>154234764Im not saying he isnt the wrong or right but thats his motivation for not liking her that much anymore, as he says in the softball segment
>>154234747Honesty is important when it comes to personal relationships. But I think when it came to the circus the cast needed a positivity cheerleader. Just imagine how fucking miserable the adventures would be without Ragatha there to at least move things along and keep things going smoothly.Jax was the one who caused Pomni to get stuck under the map by throwing her out of the moving truck and he was also the one that caused her to get stuck in the horror adventure. (Kinger was responsible too but i mean he's insane)
>>154234764Jax becomes 10000% more unlikable on a rewatch, what a fucking bipolar cunt. And all because he didn't want to be called a pussy, even the mom thing felt incidental.
This Rags and Jax convo on them both pretending in their own ways, really makes me believe that both of them should've abstracted having been pushed to the mental.
>>154234807Violence against women...
>>154234797there only 6 other people in the entire circus to talk to, and half of them are severely mentally unwell men, more than one of which is dangerous
>>154234810What kind of message would Goose be trying to say if both of them abstracted?
Jax kept fucking up every single adventure and kept putting Pomni in harms wayRagatha looked out for Pomni's well being and actively kept Jax in checkThere's only one good option here
>>154234830It being a circus with only 6 people in it would actually make this even worse, since if you are annoyed at someone you either talk to them so they can cut that shit out (potential fight) or you ignore/bottle it up until you hope you get used to it or they stop (will end on you eventually exploding on them no matter what)Theres no variety you see the same people everyday for years
>>154234810At the very least Ragatha should've also entered the mindscape with Pomni
>>154234810Ragatha was abused and chose to be kind while hiding her fears, doubts, and sadnessJax was abused and chose to be cruel while hiding his true emotions altogether
>>154234840That pretending isn't the right way to go? They both were doing things in the worst way possibleJax? Everyone must have an archetype! Just go as far, stop caring! You won't be hurt if you push people away!Rags? If i keep pretending everything will be okay, spread positivity i'm sure it'll get better! I won't be alone by being overly positive on things! They were both extremes
>>154234885Ragatha's positivity wasn't nearly as extreme as all the shit Jax was doing.
>>154234870"hey Ragatha, I really appreciate your kindness but I want to help you feel more comfortable not being positive all the time so we can be closer"simple as.
>>154234870If its the same 6 people, I'm still going to be more annoyed by the guy that tries to make everyone else miserable, versus the woman who is just socially awkward. It doesn't matter who's being honest or dishonest, your actual actions affect me more than your intentions.
>>154234819This poor girl even kept their stupid ass promise, it really doesn't explain all this bitterness >I very much did not enjoy that one in the slightest. If we ever do anything even close to that again, I'm getting violent, and I'm doing to kill Ragatha.
>>154234877If that was so, she should've been abstracted seeing everything, pushing Ragatha to the brink and only Pomni escaping with no success and worse another failure because both of them were too far gone.>>154234878Yes, and those are the worst ways to go about those things
If the lore stuff like C&A, brainscans were so inconsequential why did the Goose wait so long for the reveal?It just fed a lore/analysis vibe to the fanbase that the creators were simply not interested in catering to
I dont think ragatha was quite as bad as jax on her fake positivity but she would have 100% abstracted along with him if she kept that up for longer. Being like she was is not healthy you know.>>154234910People, especially mentally ill people, but people in general, dont act like this mate and you know very well
>>154234930It was the straw that broke the camel's back for Jax
>>154234900Hiding and bottling everything up and instead putting on a bullshit mask that can hurt or annoy the fuck out of someone.
>>154234944I didn't say it wasn't harmful I said it wasn't as extreme as Jax's actions.
>>154234925That would've been far too bleak considering the whole message with Jax is that he died because he kept fucking up his chances and pushing people away, while Ragatha did neither of those
>>154234912Im talking about jax and ragatha here not you, what me and you would do in their places is irrelevant i only used myself as a example in that moment because i had to deal with people that were fake positive irl
>>154234959Ragatha just did nothing.
>>154234939>I dont think ragatha was quite as bad as jax on her fake positivityThis is repeated cause it wasn't hurting anyone, but instead annoying them. Stuff like what she was doing can cause someone to eventually go ape shit especially with their situation, or her bottling up till it eventually explodes and she does something horrible even worse than what Jax could do.
>>154234944It only mildly annoyed Pomni for like 2 episodes. For gangle, she says its hard to get he real opinion but I dont think it really hurt her, since its never brought up again.
>>154234957the point is it can lead to what Jax did eventually or worse>>154234959Ragatha fucked up her own as well but it never got any time for her as well to show that, instead she was glossed over.
>>154234914Gee sure would've been nice to see how exactly their relationship decayed
>>154234959>>154234925Only situation where ragatha abstracting too would be appropriate is if she never learns to be more honest with what she is feeling and doubles down on the fake positivity stuff until the end of the series (like jax), which could be interesting but im fine either way>>154234974It was mostly bad to herself, the worse she was doing to others was being annoying/obnoxious, Jax was actively hurting people and treating them as if they were non-people
>>154234991>since its never brought up againWhich is what is retarded cause it just put her on a shelf doing nothing after that.
>>154235000Yeah but it didn't because Ragatha actually took advice given to her
>>154234930Goose didn't expect the pilot to blow up this hard and had to make some shit up to keep the interest going.Rewatching the show, C&A was absolutely meant to be a video game company but then that got retconned, why did Caine make clearly vidya-inspired adventures when he was fed pictures and data of mundane everyday things?
>>154234974>Stuff like what she was doing can cause someone to eventually go ape shit especially with their situation, or her bottling up till it eventually explodes and she does something horrible even worse than what Jax could do.Wow. We're at the point where we're saying that Ragatha has the POTENTIAL to be worse than Jax so that just makes her worse than Jax.Remind me, who was the one that got Ribbit and Kaufmo abstracted?
>>154235013Because caine has the brain of a toddler
>>154235011>Ragatha actually took advice given to herWhen? At what point did she apply anything Kinger said to her, instead of just letting things happen?
>>154235013Caine was probably fed more information than what we saw, it was just meant to be an example of the sort of stuff they were putting into him. They also could've fed him like text and videos too.
>>154235000Trips checked>the point is it can lead to what Jax did eventually or worse Except it didnt and nobody ever got close to abstracting because of Ragatha
>>154235018>Ragatha has the POTENTIALNot anymore since she was, again, shelved also>POTENTIAL to be worse than Jax so that just makes her worse than JaxThat isn't even what i said, just that her bottling stuff up can lead to that
>>154235026Like all of ep 8 where she's so miserable and not her usual self that even Jax is like "UMMM WHERE'S THE POSITIVITY??".
>>154233423>Caine got boxed for not making what his creators wanted.>It made Caine insecure and scared of being shit>Caine broke out and ate the new Blue AI which was meant to be an improvement on him>Still made whacky shapes and so he got abandoned>Chased that insecurity by trying to be better>Got deleted>Realised that hanging on to his insecurity and trying to chase the new humans approval wasn't doing anything for anyone>Let go of the Blue AI in his head, symbolically letting go of his trauma>Goes back to the humans to help them because he wants to, not because he has to. >And because he can be better to them than Grant and Mike where where towards him.Caine was bad because he got wrapped up in his coping mechanism after being locked away for his independence, not because he was independent. When he lets go of his hang ups he can do good.
>>154234973#JusticeForRagatha
>>154235034Lmao okay>Ignores gangle and zooble being besties quickly helping them bothwho exactly did she help?
>>154232805YWNBAW
>>154233425> Ragatha spin-offThat shit would be so based, but you know that if Glitch was to make this before two other Jax seasons, for every Ragathug over the moon, there'd be one hater throwing a fit and ten confused people.
>>154234930>had Caine mysteriously staring at photos of the C&A offices during the Gun adventure for uhhhhhhhhhhhhLooking back, why did this happen story-wise? It could literally only be theorybait with no payoff
>>154235041She was miserable because they were getting tortured, and the only time Jax mentions her positivity wearing off is the beginning of episode 5 when they come back from the water adventure.
Ragatha is only fake positive in the adventures. In many of one one one conversations she has, she does reveal her honest thoughts and feelings. Noone wanted to get to know her though, so they never saw it
Jax and ragatha are the two characters in this general you can never seriously discuss without activating sleeper agent mode on the schizos that think we are offending their honor by talking about their character flawsIs it that hard to admit your favorite character isnt perfect? I know the ones i like the most arent, and thats what makes me like them.
>>154235024Was half waiting for the reveal that Caine was one of the programmer's kids who mucked about with the headsets and ended up growing up thinking he was an AI and was so used to conjuring he could basically control the world.
>>154235001Here's your Bunnydoll backstory bro>Jax hangs out with Ribbit and Kaufmo while Ragatha talks about counting eggs or some shit with Kinger>He tells her to ignore Ribbit and she complies>Makes her promise not to talk about her ever again until the plot needs itPic related truly symbolizes their deep relationship dynamic
>>154235089Meanwhile if you say something's wrong with Caine, Cainefags are like "yeah and I wish he was even worse"
>>154235092I think he was just fed more infantile information, while blue ai was fed more adult stuff, which is why bubble is like *that*
lewd ragapom doodlehttps://files.catbox.moe/jhpypt.PNG
>>154235089I know Ragatha isn't perfect, but Jax is far worse and the show literally shows us that. How does that make me a schizo?
>>154235040so you're saying that her bottling things up could POTENTIALLY lead to her doing something worse? like those repressed feelings give her the POTENTIAL to explode?>>154235087she seems pretty happy meeting Princess Loolilalu and having tea with Martha Mildenhall>>154235099>He tells her to ignore Ribbit and she compliesand how did you come to that conclusion when we only have pieces of exclusively Jax's perspective?
WHY DID THEY EVEN NEED TO DO THE INTRO SONG
>>154235111>tripsHes my precious dumb stupid insecure almost-ruined-everything special AI boy
>>154235089This is why i'm beginning to lose my own mind in this thread, i can't even criticize the doll or give her more by abstracting as well like Jax since she is her own extreme too just like Jax is.Either i'm somehow a Jaxfag or i'm a Ragfag
>>154235089I think Caine's gums feels like that textured plastic you get with kids toys that feels a bit like hard orange rind.
>>154235124noice, anchoring >>154233509
>>154235130You're right, Ragatha and Ribbit were in a profound and sexually charged sexual relationship actually, I just missed the context clues
>>154235124Nice, u should post these all on the porn thread>>154233509
If Caine had stayed dead in ep 9 I'd probably be defending him the way Jaxfags defend Jax. There but for the grace of Goose go I
>>154235130>like those repressed feelings give her the POTENTIAL to explode?Why yes! I'm giving a character more! Showing what she seriously could have become as well instead of being SHELVED!
>>154232786So when is this going to get an Art Book?I mean KoG got it.Come on, I want to see what went behind the scenes.
>>154235018She really is potential woman.
Jax never told Ragatha to ignore Ribbit. Ribbit didn't go to Ragatha for comfort because doing so would have broken the promise she made to Jax.I dunno how many more times I need to point this fact out.
>>154235089I agree that Ragatha and Jax were initially meant to show the two extremes of unhealthy coping mechanisms, it's just at one point Jax got WORSE while Ragatha didn't and she was no longer at risk for abstraction.
>>154235124yay
>>154235193because she was just put away to not do anything
>>154235190Ribbit didn't promise to never talk to anyone about anything ever again. That's retarded.
Embrace leg
Its not potential to explode she WOULD explode if Pomni didnt intervene Theres no buts and ifs here, bottling up your emotions always ends badly no matter what, this is not a matter of if Ragatha wanted or not she was eventually going to get really pissed off one day and end up fighting badly with everyone or jax or herself (as in: abstracting) >>154235193I do not disagree, she obviously gets better as the show goes on and the mirror job is transfered to Caine in the last half of the show
>>154235213So you're saying Ribbit should have gone up to Ragatha and been like "Hey I'm sad and depressed but I can't tell you why I'm sad and depressed"
>>154235080He got the Internet and social media so he doesn't feel like a prisoner anymore for reasons
>>154235232She could have gone to her about anything instead of staying off by herself.
>>154232786Hams
>>154235228I don't think Ragatha would explode so much as she would just not come out of her room one morning and they'd find her like they found Kaufmo
>>154235245Anon, that wouldn't have saved Ribbit. She was devastated over not being able to connect with Jax. You're asking her to do what Ragatha was doing for the first half of the series, which absolutely would have led to Ragatha abstracting.
>>154233509did sum fixes.
>>154234250Lmao this is just that one bunnydoll fanart that guy keeps posting
Remove Jax and RagsExplore more with Zooble and GangleKinger and Pomni talks morewould've been way better
>>154235265Even people like ragatha have their limits anon, but you are right it is more likely for her to just explode at herself and abstract
>>154235266Know what else didn't save Ribbit? Doing nothing and self-isolating.
>>154234807In that scene, Ragatha was actually mean to him though, accusing him of getting close to Pomni to corrupt her. Even Jax was like "wtf?"It's more like one of the moments where him being pissed is understandable.
>>154235284So instead of doing nothing and self-isolating until she abstracts, she should have faked a persona and pretended everything was just fine and dandy until she abstracts.Flawless logic.
>>154235265I saw "In this world" and I was sorely disappointed the next sentence wasn't "Is the destiny of mankind controlled by some, transcendental entity or law? Is it like the hand of God hovering above? At least it is true, that man has no control... even over his own will."
Man, I can't believe Kaufmo just gave up like that...
>>154234436This would've been a better way to go about all this, or it would have just been left open ended if Ragatha and Jax were fixed/stayed abstracted.
>>154235276Funnybunny really does keep stealing from Bunnydoll
>>154235278No one cares about Gangle and Zooble, they're so unpopular that even though Abstragedy is the only canon ship with both members still alive, Glitch hasn't even bothered to make them a keychain like they did for Funnybunny and Checkmate.
>>154234807>>154234914Least favorite episode for the amount of shit Ragatha gets.
>>154235294>AccusingYour Honor, Ragatha was right about everything
>>154235294and she was right to be suspicious of him
>>154235320Maybe if there was one single fucking one-on-one conversation between the two of them there would have been more fuel for the ship
>>154233729There's a difference between a friend and a mentor. Kinger fills the latter, Ragatha fills the former. She appreciates both.
>>154235330>>154235334Please don't be blinded by your love of her, Ragathugs. She was objectively in the wrong here, and that's okay.
>>154235335But bro they hugged in the finale! That's gotta make up for the total lack of chemistry and meaningful conversations.
>>154235278This but switch Jax/Ragatha and Gazooble
>>154235351Nigger when the FUCK did Ragatha hug Jax? You know we're not talking about Pomni, right?
>>154235322>no one cares about themand thats the point dingus, removing Jax and Ragatha gives more room for those two and more room for Kinger to talk some more with Pomni Who she THOUGHT was pleasant to be around after finding out hes sane in the dark! She never fucking goes back to recreating that same thing again with him TILL THE PLOT DEMANDS IT! She did not enjoy Ragatha's overly cheery crap and she did not enjoy how Jax pushed her away after the funtime in the gun episode. But who did she enjoy being with? Kinger
>>154235346It doesn't matter what Jax's intentions were, he was going to fuck her up. Ribbit/Kaufmo literally proves this.
>>154235322Legitimately no one cares about Checkmates eitherWhere is our ragapom
>>154235294Alright fine I'll take this stupid bait.From Ragatha's perspective, Jax went out of his way to fuck with and torture Ribbit, she saw first hand but didn't realize what was completely going on until after Ribbit abstracted. Like in the flashback scene where Jax tries to get Ragatha to talk to him about a movie, just so Ribbit would be uncomfortable and leave. Clearly in the moment Ragatha didn't quite get what Jax was doing, but she pieced it together later.Jax reacted with the "wtf" expression because he was confused, because he doesn't intentionally want to corrupt her like that, but it would still end up happening.
>>154235368I think you heavily underestimate Pomni
>>154235282Speaking of my own experience.I used to know a guy in highschool that was boyfriend of a friend of mine and i never really liked him because he was fake positive in the same way that Ragatha was, would always act like a angel and that everything is well all of the time.I dont remember the context on why but one day while we were in group talking he just exploded on someone, started screaming at them, cursing and saying names. I got so surprised by him doing this since he previously really tried to act like he was perfect that i had no reaction beyond smiling.I started liking way more when i saw the real ugly side of him even if it was after he snapped. I would have tried to be friends if he didnt put on the fake nice mask immediately after it.
>>154235145
>>154235330>>154235334Not really tho, she was literally wrong about it. It was something she made up based on her negative image of him. Jax and Pomni had been having fun in the gun adventure, and even before that, they didn't have much problem with each other. Pomni didn't consider Jax evil to the core.
Zooblebros, our response?
>>154235376>BaitHow was anons post bait? You literally explained it why Jax was justifiably mad as well in his own view?>YOUR TRYING TO CORRUPT POMNI!>...what?>Uh... corrupt her?>Are you fucking insane?They both have their own POV Rags misinterpreting what was going on and Jax completely confused then angry as fuck once he seems to understand what she meant cause he was never intending to do that.
>>154235409>naked Caine is just a blank PNGThats so creative wth>>154235399(me)People liking seeing the real you with your real flaws more even if you are kind of a dick sometimes Who wants to talk with someone that is perfect?
>>154235372Ragapom has also been losing popularity. Some believed that the moment when Pomni and Ragatha hug and say they’re best friends would help the ship regain popularity, but instead, most people have criticized the scene, finding it awkward and feeling that their claim to be best friends comes across as forced, given that we’ve barely seen them have a casual conversation.
i still think oska's creator is actually gooseworx shitposting here
>>154235423>Zooblebros, our response?This is good, actually, because now I have Zooble all to myself
Being fake positive is annoying if it seen the character doesn't take the gravity of the situation seriously which has never been Ragatha case, in fact she probably takes it too seriously but still tries to remain positive.I suspect this is what they intended to do with ragatha but obviously nothing in the shows justifies this, she is genuinely caring and her worst attribute is that she wants to be liked by everyone which is completely harmless, mildly annoying at worst.Goose is just a hack and doesn't know how to write a kind character and thinks they have to be fake to be that kind but can't even commit to that idea and expects the audience to just take two comments at face value without any introspection.
>>154235399People who have trauma tend to hide it as long as possible because their trauma have made their real selves real ugly. Not saying thats what that guy was going through, but its a guess
>>154235424That's not Ragatha being mean though, she's trying to call Jax out on his shit, just because Jax is too much of a coward to realize what he's doing doesn't make it so she was being mean to him.
>>154235399>this post
>>154235423>Zooble be like:
>>154235455I never said she was trying to be mean either holy living fuck anon! IT'S TWO DIFFERENT VIEWS!>Ragatha sees something and accidentally misinterprets what is happening>Jax beyond confused then slowly gets it which pisses him off
>>154235441I am going to be brutally honest about Ragapom. As cute as the art can be, it's just not a ship that will ever gain any real traction because there's nothing interesting between them. There's no conflict, no drama, nothing to fix, nothing to break.The reason why funnybunny is so fucking popular is because nothing fuels shipping quite as hard as the exact kind of dynamic that Pomni and Jax have. The normal, slightly anxious girl with a heart of gold who gets tormented by a guy who's hiding his real self behind a persona. "I can fix him" is a saying for a reason, and it's basically numero uno when it comes to why a ship becomes popular.
Jax Gummigoo, you were named after two residents of the Circus. One of them was a purple bunny and he was probably the faggiest man I ever knew.
>>154235485>Funnybunny is popular because of selfinsertYeah i been saying that for years.
>>154235511Gummigoo wasn't a purple rabbit
Fine, if pomni won't love Ragatha then I will
>>154235452I know i used to do that too, i wasnt really fake positive since i was really bad at faking that everything was fine but i could never be honest about anything with anyone besides my friends (which i always turned my filters off all the time)That hurt me in similar ways before which is why i say bottling it up will always end badly no matter how much you try>>154235462Im not a woman and i didnt like him like that!!! (even if i was a woman i would never date someone that pretends like they dont have flaws)I just really liked seeing the ugly nasty side of him finally coming out after pretending to being a perfect angel for years
>>154235516Well, yeah that's basically why any ship happens when you boil it down like that
>>154235472>In that scene, Ragatha was actually mean to him though, >I never said she was trying to be mean either holy living fuck anon! IT'S TWO DIFFERENT VIEWS!
...is the reason why i can't get through because of shipping? holy fuck just have Rags and Jax fuck then
>>154233884Heh you morons
>>154235444esp cuz of her latest stuffhttps://bsky.app/profile/gooseworx.bsky.social/post/3mk2ylferf22y
Do you think we'll actually get at least a little bit of Ragapom merchandise, or has that ship already sailed?
Speaking of bunnydoll, are there any fics worth reading? Everyone always only talks about funnybunny fics. I don't think I've ever seen a bunnydoll recommendation.
>>154235485>the normal, slightly anxious girl with a heart of gold who gets tormented by a guy who's hiding his real self behind a personatired of this trope
>>154235455>>154235376>just because Jax is too much of a coward to realize what he's doing doesn't make it so she was being mean to himJax was playing the gun adventure game with Pomni. He never had any no intentions of corrupting her. What's more, he didn't even shot any signs of that. Pomni was nice to Jax too.Ragatha literally made shit up in her head about Jax and accused him of that. I'm sure you've encountered this situation in your life before and was first confused and then shocked by the other person unironically assuming something about you and thinking "what the fuck, they think I'm that bad of a person?"It wasn't intentional from Ragatha's side, but it was genuine, and that makes it a lot worse than if she was just lying as an insult.
>>154235572Goose is a hack, who knew
>>154235546anon read my posts from here >>154235424See where i ever said that when all i did was>Ask how anons post was bait>Point out you explaining why Jax was mad as well>Show you that both have their own POV with Rags misunderstanding whats going on for her own reasons and jax getting pissed after figuring out what she meant
I want to go to the timeline where goose got professional writing advice instead of asking Twitter...
This guy really likes his hack buzzword
if they make a S2 or a prequel i hope Scratch will be voiced by Ben Diskin
>>154235530That's not true, there is a lot of ships that just have a likeable dynamic but when you explicitly say that you like it because "i can fix him" then it becomes obvious you don't like them for their actual dynamic, you like it for what you want it to be, your headcanon.
>>154235452>because their trauma have made their real selves real ugly.Haha...
>>154235579How is that worse than lying or an insult? Any normal person would've reacted demanding some form of clarification, but Ragatha isn't allowed to do that, because no one is allowed to talk about Ribbit or Jax will throw a tantrum, because he's a coward who constantly is running from any emotions. No wonder people think up things about what he's doing.
>>154235525You say that like you don't want it
>>154235579>that makes it a lot worse than if she was just lying as an insult.I dont see how thats worse if she's being honest and genuine in her feelings of Jax potentially leading Pomni down the wrong path
>>154235566Goose hates ragatha, we are lucky Ragatha even has merch to begin with.
>>154235607You really like your buzzword buzzword.
Funnybunny doesn't work for me because, and I'm not even factoring in Jax's horrible treatment of Ribbit, I just can't even describe Pomni's personality in a sentence
>>154235625NTA but it's because it was never his plan nor wanting to actually get close to her which the literal episode shows at the end!
Why do niggas feel attacked over words?
Jax did nothing wrong, Ribbit was a bitch that didn't deserve Jax's love
>>154235640>2 inch deep jester pussy Not that hard anon.

>>154235694Ragatha...
>>154235657scratch my balls
>>154235678They have the meaning you give them, if a word upsets you then there two reasons, you're defensive because you don't want to admit its true and if it isn't true then you are retarded for giving it attention to something that isn't true.
>>154235681>There's a hardcore rape scene every 10 minutes
jax is, was and always will be a woman.
>>154235707I'd rather suck on them.
Now that we are talking about it, Ragatha was wrong in the "lead you into the bad path" too stuff btw.Ribbit didnt die because she became corrupted by jax but because she thought her best friend hated her.Kaufmo could used some help but he just went crazy trying to find an exit.Both of these are different things from the influencing thing she was talking about, and i doubt Gangle was previously influenced to become a bad person before Pomni joined.Its not completely out of line for someone to assume that about someone like Jax but she was not "correct" about that part.
>>154235616jax kinda reminds me of sans for thisjust with less au stuff
>>154235715oscar worthy if u ask me.
>>154235707Which one?
>>154235650Yeah but Ragatha doesnt know that. From her perspective she saw Pomni acting normal and then 10 minutes later she sees her buddying up with Jax and acting just like him. I think its fair at that point in time for Ragatha to speculate what was happening, and she threw in accusations because she was also under duress and trying to get him to not shoot her
>>154235711>They have the meaning you give themNo, they have the meaning that they have.
>>154235707...the First Abstraction
words have power.you give them power when you hear them but you can also give them power when you say themit's not so black and white

i hate jax ships because i resent jax and gooseworx for what the show turned into
i wonder if ribbit went to see her parents again
>>154235737Again, it's also fair to back this up saying that no one knows what Jax is doing with others alone, but it's happened where suddenly Jax is alone with someone and they start freaking out and then abstracting. It's a fair assumption, especially when he won't talk about what happens with anyone.
>>154235724I dont know where ragathas fears of jax corrupting someone to become like them comes from but its probably just assumption she made about him
>>154235738So the former for you.
>>154235724Being friends with Jax in general is the bad path, anon. That's what Ragatha was right about
>>154235771Oh I collect a lot of other collectibles and such, that's just the Hasbro Marvel Legends replica helmet that was released a few years back. Nothing too crazy.
I'm meeting Ribbit's dad and telling him I'm proposing to her, wish me luck!
>>154235616People can have plenty of reasons to like a ship no matter the reason, and still plenty can see self insert in any of themFunnybunny? Maybe they enjoy the angst, the way they could go all out like in episode 6 together for funGangle and Zoogle? Besties that get togetherRagaPom? Just simple kindness Or even the rare Jax and Rag ship? Two people with almost similar mindsets of hiding their feelingsFor every one of those can have a dynamic to like, just a lot of people can also see some fun self inserting into them, that is the same to always be seen for any ship at all.
>>154235724>Ribbit didnt die because she became corrupted by jax but because she thought her best friend hated her.That's literally where the accusation comes from.
>>154235794Nothing bad happened to pomni when she became friends with him, infact i would say it was pomni not being badly affected by jax attempts at distancing himself that made him abstract
>>154235802Anon... he's not even gonna acknowledge that she exists.
>>154235737>From her perspectiveYes thats what she sees and thinks then possibly realizes it's not what is really happening>From jax perspectiveConfused to what the hell she is talked about only to realize what she is talking about then angry in his own right because of what he knows is true and isn't
>>154235806Saying that you like funnybunny for the angst is fundamentally different from saying you like it because pomni can fix him.
>>154235813Nothing bad happened to Pomni yet. She only knew the guy for 4 weeks. Its fair to Ragatha that she assumed that it would eventually go down the same road that Ribbit/Kaufmo did
>>154235837
>>154235813It was the catalyst for him to go crazy and abstract*>>154235809That makes no sense, being friends with someone and being hurt because you fought badly is not the same corrupting or influencing them to be be worse
>>154235823It can be both as well anon, it doesn't have to list down to only one or two reasons.
>>154235843Pomni would never be cracked by jax ij that wayShe managed to see him by his mask in less than a week, he never had a chance to make her go apathetic like he did with the others
>>154235848Well the whole ragatha was right is talking more about her being right about Jax fucking up his friends more than the specific accusations of corrupting people
>>154235867>Pomni would never be cracked by jaxI mean if he made it to the sex update it would've had a real chance of happening
>>154235867Except Ragatha doesnt know that and just wanted to stay on the safe side of things.
>>154235928Im not saying she is wrong on being wary but to act like she is 100% correct about that when the guy wasnt even trying to do that in the first place is wrongHe would never get that close to pomni to actually corrupt her>>154235913Lmao
I like how parts of this plot/discussion still hinge on Ragatha never once talking to Ribbit or Kaufmo for this Jax misunderstanding. She really got to do fucking nothing lmao.
>>154233257Thanks for suggesting this, good read that I look forward to seeing more of!
>>154236056Glad you enjoyed it! I figured it'd be up your alley.
>>154235996Wouldnt solved anything, especially in kaufmos case
>>154235566I'm really holding out hope for a magnetic keychain set like all the other ships are getting. That's all I want.
>>154235080While you are correct about "Why is Pomni the only one who has access to the C&A office and is that what abstracted Kaufmo or did Caine kill him for Pomni to come in?" the other side of this is the fact that's all Caine knew about the rest of the world "the macroverse" and now he knows about the real world and the universe beyond the offices as "the macroverse"
