RyuujinBlueZ posted:If I remember right this was kind of tied into a similar thing, in that the series just sort of takes place in its own ill-defined era with things just being done because they were cool or seemed the appropriate blend of mystical and scientific rather than strictly adhering to what was available in any one time period. That was one of the things I liked about the show. They didn't waste time trying to contrive an unnecessary timeline or waste time on necessary world building.

It's all there, the music, the atmosphere, the art, everything. If they've done so well on the first episode, I can't imagine that they will do much worse with the rest of the season.

oilatsnep posted:Currently watching season 1 on youtube to catch up before watching the new season. Mushi-shi spoilers don't mean to much since there is zero overarching plot in the show, but I assume you just don't want to be spoiled on the plots of future episodes. Be sure to check out the OVA too. e: Hey I was trying to save him from discovering that mushi actually don't exist and Ginko went insane and imagined it all after his eye was stabbed a little too early.

That ending scene was gorgeous, and the whole episode was one of the best yet.

AnacondaHL posted:It doesn't even need to be as complex as cryopreservation. The reason that kid survived in the airplane wheel well from San Jose to Hawaii was a combination of hypoxia and hypothermia, and the same can happen to a person in an icy lake for hours. I knew cryopreservation was a thing, but I didn't know that was possible.

That was a bit of a goofy ending. After the oppressive last couple episodes, this rather lighthearted episode was a welcome respite.

Neddy Seagoon posted:You're not wrong stared into the shadow on the wrong lake? Your eye falls out, your hair changes colour, and you lose all your memory. And that's if you're lucky. I guess we can imagine that these are all rare, isolated incidents. Who knows, it's probably been decades since Ginko's first started out but we wouldn't know because he never seems to look any older or younger, except for the childhood flashback episodes.

Dan7el posted:Ginko did what he had to do. My worry was the lost knowledge. There had to be some really good research that was lost. I was thinking exactly that when I saw the house go up in flames. That's hundreds of years of important medical and botanical research gone poof.

aers posted:Today's Mushishi episode is a live-action talk show with the director and cast explaining some things. Crunchyroll doesn't appear to be subbing it. Just a heads up. That's a rather disappointing. I hope there'll be a fansub of it, or that CR subs it soon.

Spiritus Nox posted:So I haven't read the thread because I'm terrified of spoilers, but I basically haven't watched any Anime since the Escaflowne simulwatch and decided to pick up a bunch of poo poo to start sampling and maybe working my way though, starting with season one of Mushi-Shi. There are actually several episodes that provide some backstory for Ginko, and other that imply information about him.

... Am I missing something here? I swear that 2 episode special (Path of Thorns) came out in the summer, because I remember watching it a while ago on Crunchyroll.LaTex Fetish posted:just got done with the original series a little while ago. Not necessary. Just go to Crunchyroll where an OVA and the second season has been airing. All of it is free for non-premium users now since part 2 of the second season didn't start yet. e:VV Not what I meant, but I see where I went wrong. I hadn't seen all those earlier posts before now and assumed they were made recently. ViggyNash fucked around with this message at 22:58 on Oct 8, 2014 |

Did they ever mention the mushi-repellent cigs before? I always thought Ginko smoked because he liked it, and because it was part of his "new age" look.

Goddamit, I just watched Edge of Tomorrow for the second time yesterday and I was not ready for more time-looping. Great episode, but an existentially terrifying future.

Smoking Crow posted:I don't see why you guys think this is scary. I interpreted it as the man loving his wife so much that he's willing to give up something a lot of people want, being able to relive the past, just to experience new things with her. And at the end, he willingly sacrifices his own consciousness so that she might live. GODDAMN THE FEELS Because the man that walked into the tunnel doesn't exist anymore. He's effectively dead. The man she marries on the next loop is a copy of the original him who has never experienced all those time loops, like she didn't when he was time looping.

But when the husband walked into the cave that last time, he did so with full knowledge of the situation. When he gets to that point this time, does he act different? That question's rhetorical btw, I doubt there's any way to answer except by speculating on thin air.

Butt Frosted Cake posted:I don't think crunchyroll does movies in general so were gonna have to wait for the bds They have a few, I think. They recently picked up everything Shinkai for some Shinkai Movie Night thing for example. Plus they picked up the OVA from just before the second season so I'm optimistic.
