yall won't let queer people have anything huh? gay people are much like straight people, in that when they think someone is physically or emotionally attractive, they will say i love you to them it is not a code, or a cryptic puzzle it just happens like that Expect My Mom fucked around with this message at 21:55 on Jan 19, 2018 |

Terper posted:I think the theme they were going for is more "these specific things suck and if we don't deal with them it will be bad for all of us" I thought the theme is 'God resets time over and over again to punish Satan forever' (and also the gays I guess, the hell is this thread?)

Schwarzwald posted:God may be the villain in the manga (I haven't read it yet (I've already pre-ordered the new translation)), but I think that's a much harder claim to make in Crybaby. If you follow the text of Crybaby, the demons and Satan were just chilling out on Earth killing and dominating each other, and minding their own business - when God shows up to destroy everything just to spite Satan. Wiping out all life on an entire planet just to get at one person isn't a sign of a benevolent God. like a cigarette should posted:I thought the theme is 'God resets time over and over again to punish Satan forever' (and also the gays I guess, the hell is this thread?) The twin moons affirm at the end that there's a persistent change to the world even in spite of the Earth being destroyed, so there's a chance they're not actually stuck in a time loop in the Crybaby universe.

People kill each other indiscriminately later on. Some guy being an rear end in a top hat isn't out of order. The credits still clearly say it's not him. He doesn't even have any tattoos.

Lurking Haro posted:People kill each other indiscriminately later on. Some guy being an rear end in a top hat isn't out of order. I'm not saying it's completely outside the realm of possibility, but plot wise it's confusing because you're expecting Mayuta-lookalike to be a devilman or to be a demon in that scene but it never goes anywhere, and that's the episode they reintroduce Koda to make it even more confusing.

it's time to talk about the real disappointing part of crybaby, and that is how psycho jenny and zenon got shafted. they were both way cooler in the manga.

Psycho Jenny is really cute in Crybaby, she looks really fluffy, and I prefer that over her more terrifying look. also just conceptually, your emotionally distant mother figure being an ancient demon capable of mass mind control owns. did you ever notice she has breasts on her back? its cool

She is lying in her futon, so she might just have did from neglect. It's pretty open.

I first thought it actually was demon Mayuta and Miko killed him later before climbing back home. It turns out it's just confusing editing.

Schwarzwald posted:I am not taking anything away from you, and I am not trying to provoke a fight. the show was written, in japanese. the writer, who is japanese, used a word, that is near-exclusive to romantic love. why would the writer, okouchi ichiro, specifically choose a word that is so romantic in its meaning, if he did not mean it to be romantic. this is not accidental. this is not some meta-defining trick. this is not some bizarre sleight of hand. a man who has written multiple shows with romantic confessions, several with entire plot points hinged on characters' romantic confessions, and even a couple of shows with explicitly lesbian characters, chose to have one woman say a word that is explicitly romantic in its meaning to another woman. why would he do this, if he did not mean for the audience to interpret it as a woman confessing romantic interest in another woman. how do you get from point a to point b here. i don't want to hear some meta analysis about the story, i literally just want to know, how you get from a character saying 'i love you in an explicitly romantic sense' to 'slow down, let's not accuse anyone of lesbianism.' do you think the writer is dense? did he fall asleep on the keyboard and forget to add 'no homo' after that word? perhaps he was in a middle of a transcendent flashback to his work on utena and accidentally wrote that in and was too scared to tell anyone?

Endorph posted:the word they use is literally, explicitly, for romantic love, in japanese. daisuki. tbh when I first watched it I was only paying attention to the subtitles and not the spoken word so I could have seen it as not being romantic at first. but then you pointed that out in your posts before this one and it made perfect sense.

I can’t The way it’s lead up, the drama of it all, the conclusion of self sacrifice, her finally reaching clarity in her feelings and expressing it Love can mean a lot of different things in English but that doesn’t mean every use of the word is going to be ambiguous and we can generally figure this out for ourselves kind of intuitively

The most romantic and thematically most important kiss in this entire series was when Akira met that skinny titty pillpusher at the club in the very beginning.
