Today I couldn't stop thinking how ghiaccio's face and king crimson faces were similar. I was happy to find someone made the connection before me.

and I couldn't help but notice that the placement of his eyes and mouth look a lot like King Crimson. Is this intentional?

I wonder if the next OP will spoil Silver Chariot/Polnaref return in some way? It's this week right?

If they're going to split the anime in half wrt the OPs, since there's an odd number of episodes, this ep (ep 20 out of 39) has an even chance of being the last with Fighting Gold or the first with the new OP

I'm pretty sure that this week'll keep Fighting Gold, or possibly just skip the OP entirely, and next week will transition to Traitor's Requiem.

this week will definitely be prime candidate #1 for a new op. i can see them skipping it entirely, though, yeah. it's gonna be a tense encounter and they might want to time it well if the predictions on what the cliffhanger will be end up true.

Not checked this personally so pinch of salt for now: Bamco haven't extended the licence for All Star Battle. It's been removed from EU PSN (Game and DLC) and it'll be pulled from US if so. Get it while you can if you were on the fence maybe. Or not, it's kinda bad.

yeah actually they will

Having reread the King Crimson vs. Metallica arc earlier today I can only say goddamn, it's going to be a delight watching that in the anime in a few months. The anime has already had new scenes with Risotto and Diavolo, maybe we'll be lucky and get more stuff with Doppio.

This is honestly the most nonsensical and confusing interpretation of King Crimson I have read yet, aaaaaaaaaaaaa

God it's not that hard. I see it as the following flowchart.

Okay so Diavolo decides he's gonna do something. Let's say he's really hungry for some eggs. Then he peers into Epitaph.

If Diavolo sees himself enjoying some delicious eggs he goes "Ok I'll activate King Crimson so I'll get these eggs without having to do any cooking."

If Diavolo sees himself burning the eggs and really botching it he goes "Ok well I won't even try cooking these eggs."

If Diavolo sees Mista ambushing him as he's about to finish cooking his eggs he does "Ok I'll time activating King Crimson so that the bit where Mista fills me with lead falls into the erased period of time so I don't actually die"

Diavolo can use King Crimson to exempt himself of fate but sometimes the fated event is favorable and in that case he'll want to skip into enjoying his everlasting climax of delicious eggs.

God, I forgot that the first loving thing King Crimson ever does, grab Trish and rip her arm off without Bruno noticing, doesn't jive with any of the theories I've ever heard about how it works! It's just totally inconsistent!

It emphasizes the pecking order position, but it lacks the alliterative zip. Not sure what else could have worked, though. Crown/Count/Chief Crimson? Sovereign Scarlet?

I just finished the episode and I still haven't fully registered that yes that was King Crimson in animated form in front of my eyes. I can't wait until KC just skips over the OP and drops us in media res or whatever time-themed silliness David has in mind happens.

What a time to be alive.

MonsterEnvy posted:

At the ridiculous pace they're going I honestly don't know how they're going to fill those 39 episodes. They'll have to noticeably slow down or add a lot of extra scenes, I hope it is more like... The Sun, where the additions improved the whole experience considerably, and less like Formaggio, which I honestly felt dragged a little. I believe in David.

Calling it now: the OP is going to skip ahead whenever Diavolo would appear in it until he is fully revealed in the story.
