Hikari's faces are great. Takahashi's arms are great. Machi's flame sound effects are also great. This show is great.

Davincie posted:it runs in a seinen mag, it has a completely standard harem structure. theres nothing about that post that is wrong, tho i personally dont care yea I guess it's more a statement on the incredibly low bar other shows like it set but while I can't really disagree with the main point of that post, I also just kinda am willing to forgive it because it sounds like they keep things to more grounded 'this child has a crush, her teacher fully understands he can never even slightly entertain it' thing because so many other things like it go 'this child has a crush, and maybe the teacher is ok with it'. It's a fair hit for the show to mention that it's entirely young women throwing themselves at a male authority figure for his approval and that's worth saying 'yea, not perfect'. I don't think it's meant to be some unforgivable sin against the show, just a flaw in an otherwise good product.

I'm surprised the only three dullahans on the planet aren't on some sort of pen pal system instead of trying to figure out how to eat, sleep, bathe, and travel by independent trial and error.

Even if they were sharing notes, there would still be a lot of individual trial and error, what with there only being three of them. This is not to mention any potential language barriers and various simple differences in circumstance and even personal preference from person to person.

Yea it feels like even if all three of them were in the same country even it'd still be a trial and error thing. "Hey how do you make your commute not suck? I tried a bouncy bjorn thing and it made me sick." "poo poo man I dunno, I never had a problem with that and the literal only other member of our race just has a buddy who's cool and carries his stuff." "Well drat."

Random thought, how would Machi ride a bicycle? Would she use her harness with a custom helmet or would the bike have a padded basket for her head with maybe a modified boxing helmet for extra protection if something happens. Oh and side mirrors so she can see behind her.

Any lingering doubts I had about this adaptation are gone with how great Machi is. They have also made Hikari correctly impish. chumbler fucked around with this message at 08:30 on Jan 15, 2017 |

You know it's a funny scene and I'm sure Machi and her family laugh about it now when they recall it, but they would not have known that her head/body being so far apart would be fine so they must've been freaking the gently caress out at the time.

Tatum Girlparts posted:"poo poo man I dunno, I never had a problem with that and the literal only other member of our race just has a buddy who's cool and carries his stuff." Well, they aren't a race in any sense of the term, which is one of the interesting things about this show. As people have mentioned, it's much more like people with rare disabilities. Hikari for example is basically just a person who requires unusual dietary supplements and is sensitive to sunlight. It's closer to being, I dunno, albino than to having a different race. Actually, the whole thing reminds me of a short story manga I read recently, which was about a mother struggling to raise a child with WWS (Werewolf Syndrome).

I wonder if physicists could devise a test to see if signals between her head and her body travel slower than, equal to, or faster than the speed of light. Physicists in the show, I mean. Of course. edit: my fingers type much slower than the speed of light, obviously

Im guessing a dullahan's brain is just capable of dealing with how disorienting it must be to be able to move about with your point of view being locked somewhere else like that. Your life is like playing an old resident evil game, all the time.

wheelgun wielder posted:I wonder if physicists could devise a test to see if signals between her head and her body travel slower than, equal to, or faster than the speed of light. They actually cover this in one of the latest chapters of the manga! Machi talks about how she once had a scope down her esophagus as a doctor examined her, and as far as they could tell she looked like a perfectly normal person on the inside. This leads them to theorize that the flame part is a wormhole of some kind. I like that Takahashi is a real, honest, mature adult here. He really does seem to think of them just as teenage kids and has no ulterior motives other than to be their teacher and mentor. It's really a pedagogical relationship. That's what keeps it from being creepy! He acts and thinks like a real honest adult should, and I applaud the manga's author for taking it that route. It's just sad that this is something that makes the manga stand out rather than the norm.
