Dan7el posted:Is there a way for the authorities to identify which CROWDS belongs to which bodies? That's not clear to me. Seems you can become a CROWDS and go on a rampage and no one is the wiser. Maybe criminal CROWDS get locked up somehow? Dunno, but I'm guessing they'll explain it.

Wait a second... was that a new theme song my ears heard? I do believe it was. The episode itself was weird. The new girl is almost Hajime 2.0, but not quite. The alien is... well it should be an alien, but instead it's a red-skinned human who just hasn't seen much of earth. I don't get the point. I didn't hate it though, so lets see where this goes.

Fangz posted:Hmm, Tsubasa seems interesting. In particular, unlike Hajime, JJ recruited her when she was literally running away from him. Also, her transformation seems to be trigger by being angry, rather than on-command like Hajime and the other Gatchas? Nah, I think the grey what Genocyber said. I'm sure someone somewhere will make a list explaining them all in great detail before this show is done.

I just though of something. Does anyone remember the first episode of Kino's Journey? I wonder how they'll play with the mood bubble things...

Condiv posted:i guess i'm the only one that didn't like eps 0 and 1 cause they felt like really bad fanfiction No, I thought the first episode especially was kinda bad in some ways. But the new ideas are interesting and Tsubasa seems like a fun character.

The new villain is dumb. He's proving that Crowds are bad by doing bad things with Crowds. It's like Decarte's proof of God in which he claims that the existence of god proves the existence of god. Everything else is still fun though. Still trying to figure out the point of Gel's existence in the show, though.

deadly_pudding posted:I was half-trolling, but what I was getting at is that CROWDS transforms the internet into potentially a physical weapon. It makes VAPE 100% correct: if you provide weapons to everybody without a screening process, you shouldn't be surprised if somebody decides to use that weapon to kill somebody. My issue with this claim is that it hasn't happened yet. There's been minor cases of theft and such which are easy to deal with, but no one has mentioned a lethal or dangerous CROWDS incident that wasn't VAPE related. I'll admit that this status quo wouldn't last very long in reality, but in that universe it has and VAPE is deliberately shaking the boat. And it's not as if there is no capacity of dealing with rogue CROWDS, or a deterrent for doing so. deadly_pudding posted:It is a metaphor for gun control No gun rights argument has ever held up for me. One thing people like to say a lot is that if we ban guns we would have to ban knives too because they are also deadly weapons. That's a stupid argument because knives have a multitude of uses while guns have only the one purpose (hunting for food is a special case). People also say that it's people that kill people and that guns are only tools, but a lot of people only kill people because guns make it so drat easy. CROWDS are more like knives. They are extremely versatile tools that have the potential to be dangerous. VAPE wants to show that CROWDS are inherently dangerous, like a gun, but they're trying to prove that by intentionally making their CROWDS do bad things. You could argue "But guns only do bad things if they are used to do a bad thing too," but guns can only be used to do bad things, so it's just a question of whether you use the gun or not. That doesn't apply to CROWDS since they can be used for good purposes. ViggyNash fucked around with this message at 15:02 on Jul 14, 2015 |

Lessail posted:Gel is in contrast to GALAX and the social media experience. She's coming around at a time when trust in the CROWDS system is lowering and when Rui's faith is wavering. Gel won't be the final badguy, but rather part of the solution imo I think the conflict will come from a difference of opinion over what constitutes a peaceful. She's already been shown to have a pretty idealistic view about the way people should interact with each other, and we've seen that people like Hajime and gramps who are set in their ways concern her. My prediction? Her version of peace is homogenization. That will lead into the age old Apple vs Android debate, human society edition.
