my biggest issue with killing dice is honestly just the chair scene. maybe that's less weird in the vn but it was just. a bizarre moment. like dude chill the gently caress out i was fine not seeing something like this at this point of the narrative. kinda uh, ties in with why i do not like sotsugyou at all lol

the manga adaptation is actually doubly insane because the artist on that manga was obsessed with drawing shion's boobs as big as possible. so like every now and then it randomly cuts to this incredibly hyperdetailed drawing of her boobs and then cuts back to drama as usual

Gotta find that manga

gerokasu got kinda misrepresented on Twitter also. its very stupid but the protagonist, specifically thinks that women are fluffy and nice and never do anything bad, which is why he wants to become a woman. he doesnt actually id as a woman in a trans way. the story's pretty consistent about this and god's speech at the end is about how even if he reincarnated the protag as a woman hed still be the same person. which to me feels like, some roundabout way of being aware of trans people? like theres a body/soul gender distinction being made there.

the protag thinks of himself as a guy, he just wishes he was a woman because he thinks women have it easy. so even if he got reborn in a female body hed still be a guy. because he doesnt actually think of himself as a woman or actually want any of the real stuff being a woman entails, he just wants the fantasy version of it he made up in his head.

its still, an extremely bad script, and there are definitely elements that are adjacent to transphobic tropes, but all that stuff basically got left out of the conversation about it because nobody actually read it at face value. (or read it at all, tbh)

I think it definitely hit a little close to home for a certain subset of people lol.

It's an Evangelion 3.0+1.0 situation because the creator got hitched to a big franchise thing for a while

if ryukishi had to put his big projects on hiatus because he attached himself to other writing gigs he would never finish a single wtc game. have you seen the quantity of things that man writes in a single year

it's possible that I like the live action sakis more than the animes, those are tv dramas also but they save the tournaments for the movies and it's hype as hell
