If there needs to be a reason, I'd wager that all the WW2/Cold War stuff they have is probably just cargo culted reproductions that could be cobbled together since the later people couldn't access the higher tech that allowed for the greater infrastructure to be built.

If it helps you get into things to wonder about the origin for some things, that's totally cool, and completely in line with the characters wandering around wondering what all these weird things might have been and why people made them. And the idea that they're cargo cult relics, the best a dying society could muster, is a pretty neat concept.

You think there's some kind of unity of warring factions going on? Chi and Yuu's uniforms and helmets are very different designs. Chi's kinda reminds me of early WWII British helmet designs, Yuu's is clearly German in origin. Plus the pseudo-Iron Cross on the Kettenkrad, and the Kettenkrad itself. Kinda plays into the cargo-cult theory but it's worth mention.

Maybe it's been brought up already - anyone know what the deal is with the weird bound pale thing with eyes that the girls pass right after the title card in the first episode? It shows up in the beginning of the OP too. kinda looks like the fish they caught, and it gives me a YKK vibe too. this thing:  MJP posted:You think there's some kind of unity of warring factions going on?

Plus the pseudo-Iron Cross on the Kettenkrad, and the Kettenkrad itself. to me it looks like they have uniforms from the same faction, but Yuu is wearing a fleece-lined parka instead of a plain canvas one. we haven't seen any indication of what the 'other side' looked like. perhaps it was a civil war. fairlight fucked around with this message at 15:51 on Oct 24, 2017 |

I think it's just a bit of pipe or something that's being lit just so to look like a quirky friend.

The 'mouth' is definitely just a divot being illuminated from below, although idk about the eyes. I like that the quirky friend shows up in the OP though

I haven't examined closely but there's a weird mishmash of equipment/vehicles in the backgrounds too. The bomber's home nation in the first episode doesn't match the tank, or stuff from the scenery, or their equipment. Kind of hard to tell if it's just 'i like this plane/tank/car and want to draw it' or not.

Centzon Totochtin posted:the camera breaks in the ED I'm curious to see if that will amount to anything specific in the normal course of the show's run, or if it's just a general reference to the show's fascination with a decaying and dying world.

Watching now, but I think we have a date: 3230/08/06. Or, August 6th, 3230. The last two sets of numbers on the camera went up while Yuu was using it, so I'm guessing that's the time. The 3rd set goes up after they find the Temple, which definitely had an overnight break between Yuu's shooting spree and the post-credit scene. Also Chi channeling her silly side was good. iospace fucked around with this message at 19:16 on Oct 27, 2017 |

I really like this show but it feels weird when folks call it calming because it stresses me out so much lol. It reminds me of a time I was super depressed and I think that's intentional.

It's weird. I love the show and am usually grinning like an idiot the whole way through, but yeah, there's definitely moments where the overwhelming scale of the disaster that's apparently happened more than once hits. It's good.

I feel like it's threading the needle between the bleak and the....fuzzy, for lack of a better term really well. Like there's that scene (minor current episode spoilers) where they accidentally knock over the statue goofing off, and it lands on the girls' heads and for a moment they go still and quiet and for a moment you remember the barren, uncaring danger of this world they live in, and that nobody is there to help them if they need it, and oh poo poo have they really hosed up this time? And then they open their eyes, sit back up, Chi dope-slaps Yuu in irritation, and they do a quick damage check before rolling onwards, still secure in each other and still trading jokes. That sort of scene is extremely my kind of poo poo.

Spiritus Nox posted:That sort of scene is extremely my kind of poo poo. And then after marveling that the pictures in this camera might outlast the world around them... they take a picture together. The whole thing is  incarnate.But I think this is a relaxing kind of show. A really special kind of relaxing where the setting is anxious and foreboding but the characters and the tone are still incredibly okay and relaxing. Like, accepting everything stressful and difficult about the world... things are okay and sometimes nice. In that context Yuu's relief at finding Chi in the darkness was really moving. The world is dark and scary, and their security is stressfully tenuous, but these girls are okay because they have each other. Even if they bicker sometimes. It's a really special kind of bleak beautiful setting that really does it for me. I can't think of anything else that's quite like this. Except Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou maybe.

I find that it's relaxing because it's about enjoying the smaller and more precious moments, even despite all the horrible and scary stuff that surrounds them. Every moment is a treasure to them.

We also learned the two likely years the world takes place in. Assuming the camera was setup correctly, it's either year 3230 or 5218, depending on if the camera uses the BC/AD or the Japanese Heisei year.

Maybe a future immortal god-emperor though?

The statues look a little like nier's robots as well. The manga started in 2014 -- i wonder if Yoko Taro is a fan, or if the similarities are just coincidence fairlight fucked around with this message at 11:05 on Oct 30, 2017 |

The music is very Enya and I love it. It goes so well with the visuals, and it really reinforced that ethereal quality of the temple room when the lights came on.
