Lion is already sick of everyone's poo poo. I like this show so far. Definitely some LOST parallels. Isolated area that apparently can't be returned from, characters that can't communicate properly, extensive flashbacks as character development... figure the bear for the smoke monster, maybe Varakuna for Sawyer. All right, it isn't perfect.

Lion is as fed up with the rest of the cast and the situation as we are and is therefore the best Mitsumune replacement for when he goes and gets himself killed getting aroused by the werebear instead of running away or something. Failing that, Jack escaping (assuming we don't return to the jail cell and find him dead in there or something) and starting to kill everyone as the new protagonist would be acceptable too.

I seriously suggest reading Tono Monogatari (Legends of Tono) before hand.

Looks like some bus members have been eating too much of Maimai's "vitamins" and "candy."

Yeah, it sucks. Also Jack still my favorite character, literally just shows up doing a sick pose and then a character dies, my buddy.

I'm getting the feeling that they're all seeing and hearing what they most fear, thus why they can't agree on what horrible sound they heard, with some thinking it sounded like a siren or something breaking. The town is reflecting their hosed-up psyches back at them and it's all going to end horribly. No survivors. Pretty sure Jack is dead, the chuuni bit the fuckin' dust and Jack didn't even have to touch the guy to do it! I hope Mitsumune is next, he is just asking to be cut down.

It's basically some sort of japanese Silent Hill in which people hallucinate stuff from their subconscious/traumatic memories (Bus Driver's daughter, murderous jack for Hyouketsu no Assness and so on...). What isn't real clear yet is if it's possible for people to hallucinate stuff from other people's psyches (they all saw the "giant mitsumune", but the beast in the wood sounded different depending on who heard it).

I'm betting the thing in the tunnel looked different to all of them, and Maimai was unlucky enough to blurt out the most embarrassing option first.

I'm thinking they all died when the bus crashed, and this is some weird Purgatory where their fears are made real.

Just started watching the latest episode so I can't comment on all the chat above, but clearly the most important thing from this episode is that we got confirmation that catgirl's guns are fake. Or at least some of them are; maybe she has a real handgun in there or something. Also Lovepon is just getting more and more ridiculous every episode, jeez. Edit: Is it bad that I keep forgetting Masaki's name and mentally referring to her as "Pukey" until I get reminded of it somehow? Edit again: Yeah, I think people are hearing/seeing things based on their fears and whatnot. Or at least for the hearing part; someone other than Judgness saw Jack there before the chuuni went over the cliff and all, so whether or not the others saw the "giant Mitsumune" remains to be seen I guess. Unless that was the real Jack, but I'm betting he got taken or something rather than that actually being him. We also got Valkana and Koharun not seeing the bus driver's daughter, after all. Also, next episode's title is a bit foreboding. Guessing we're going to lose at least one Yuuna in it. Roland Jones fucked around with this message at 23:41 on Apr 23, 2016 |

This show is making me feel like I'm watching Higurashi or a Silent Hill anime. Though yeah seems super applicable as well.

i've been thinking that the bus driver was not 'himself' somehow all this time, but him seeing his ghost kid pretty much confirms him as being as normal, relatively speaking, as the rest of the group doesn't it

I find it funny that he never mentioned this.

People like this show for the dumb memes and the fact that all the characters are all believable losers who aren't special.

Futaba Anzu posted:in what way is it coming together because lol what the gently caress at that ending It was a literal combination of everything they hinted at about the monster, it was cool! The rest of episode also hinted at stuff that I thought they were going to be more coy about, like what Masaki's deal is. There's also stuff like how the glasses guy's plan got entirely away from him, lovepon somehow getting worse, the cool scene where the core leaders got caught straight up lying. Good poo poo.

Oh my gosh. Watching this now, the characters misremembering Judgness's name (while mostly ignoring that he fell off a cliff and probably died) is amazing. This is wonderful dark humor. Edit: Oh wow, Mikage is losing his mind. I was expecting him to hold it together better. Roland Jones fucked around with this message at 06:07 on Apr 30, 2016 |

How is the entire group just ignoring how loving crazy Lovepon is? She's clearly the most problematic and needs to go.
