Lulu knows though because Lulu is the best and she'd probably spill the beans because she thought it was cool

Wait. Wait. Is the reason Bravern even needs a pilot at all just because Lewis didn't want to fight without his husband? Captain Fargle fucked around with this message at 05:48 on Mar 8, 2024 |

I think it's partly that the death drives need a human as a power source for their bullshit abilities. Usually they burn them out like the Lulus but something about an awake, pissed off hot blooded pilot instead of a puppet is the key to victory.

I assume normally if you just let the human recover and relax between fights they'll probably be fine. But the way the death drives use the Lulu's is they seem to just like, juice up with her entire life span in one go, pop her out and get a new one.

I am going to be so disappointed if the series doesn't end with Bravern proposing to Isami while trying to hold a normal rear end wedding ring in his giant gundam hand.

And I wonder if the death drives are all looking for a satisfying end because they're using barely conscious humanoids as power sources but since Bravern has a hot blooded pilot he fights to stay alive. With a conscious Lulu in the cockpit, will Superbia realize during the rematch with Bravern that he wants to stay alive now? Maybe they team up and the four of them take down the remaining towers together.

So does this mean that Bravern is a Brave series because Lewis grew up watching Brave series anime?

Guess I'm finally vindicated once and for all. That'll show everyone who said that time loops were some sort of crazy crack theory and not an extremely pulpy scifi device with a lot of established trope signals to the point of being cliche. The good news is that seeing it coming did not make it any less of a wild goddamn ride. Outstanding questions: I still think the final boss is going to be some sort of alternate Punished Smith - or maybe Isami - who is grieving and suicidal over the death of his husband and/or Lulu, and is the heart of the Deathdrive system to that end. It would be a nice loop-closing on both Bravern and the Deathdrives, it would explain where Lulu Prime comes from, and beating it would be the ultimate end to the cycle. It could also explain what the psychic TS is for - I don't think it was introduced to the show purely to get Smith into the Cyber-Death Dimension. Whether Turned Superbia is a factor in the cycle or a factor in breaking it is also a fun wild card and I'm proud of Lulu for being the one to put him in play. Is, uh... Is someone supposed to go in the Brave Dragon?

So would it really have been so bad if Lewis Smith had gotten inside Bravern with the recent reveal? I mean, isn't it really just masturbation at that point if you're just banging yourself, even if it was a robot? Or is that just the laziest Black Mirror that hasn't been written yet about whether you should feel bad about banging a clone or sexy robot of yourself?

There might have been timey wimey concerns with Smith and Bravern coming into close contact.

Maybe? The crest appears before the time loop stuff for his ghost. Or maybe he wasn't a ghost and just information in the 3d printer tower, like a timeout zone between deaths for the death drivers.

The weirdest little hint that was there all along: only two characters use the name "Japan." Every other American says "Nippon." Once I twigged I started watching for it and I don't think there are any exceptions.

I swear to gently caress if they end this series without Bravern ever telling Isami who he actually is I'm going actually fly out to Japan in order to find Obari's office and very calmly and politely explain my issues with his show.
