Why are parents in this anime so terrible?
Parents love their children unconditionally irl

Like, wtf is this. it's so unrealistic and overexaggerated. =

inb4 a gullible idiot takes the bait

are they in Hokkaido?

no parents do this to their children.

The Marina arc is pretty cool.
When will it be airing?

>azuma finds the body
>higurashi cicadas start crying

How did Shizuka turn a 180 and become a villain after Marina's death? She was a loser retard the last episode and now she's emotionally manipulating people like it was second nature to her

>>280489198
She had an epiphany and Marina dying probably felt extremely liberating

>>280487092 (OP)

Is the titular original sin the reason takopii cannot return to planet happy?

>>280487092 (OP)
>>280489373
This, is the most erotic anime of the year.

>>280487332
it's not her child and she knows it

>>280489756
Nah it's common to pretend someone acting weird is not the same person. The bitch went schizophrenic as soon as her daughter "betrayed" her by picking daddy over mommy. She has been filling Marina's head with shit about hating her dad and the prostitute (and Shizuka) so the second her gaslighting stopped working she went even more insane.
The anime showed just how much she was seething when Marina-pi decided to visit her father's place

I found picrel and a bunch of other scenes in this anime to be oddly hilarious. Am I fucked in the head? Am I irony poisoned?

>>280489198

>>280474711
>>280474440

is this yuri

>>280489966
It's a coping mechanism against suffering.

Imagine coming home after a hard days work and you find out your wife bought tassels. What a disgrace. At least it wasn't a spice rack.

>>280489198
She was always the villain

>>280489966
Hey, at least you don't have a raging erection while watching it, could be worse.

>>280487092 (OP)
Kinda want to watch this because it looks really good, but there's one thing i need to know - will her dog get killed/maimed or something the like?

>28.0C
>that's 82F
Why on Earth would they keep their house so fucking hot in the summer?
Are the Japanese insane?

>>280487114
Everyone's life is different, you never know what others have gone through.
You'd be surprised how many people you walk past in the city have had a shitty day, week, or childhood despite what you see on the outside.

>>280490515
You'll find that out after watching the 1st episode

>>280490595
prob they cant afford it I think anon

>>280489198
She's not the villain just a poor little thing twisted by abuse

>>280490631
I was hoping to bait people with the Fahrenheit conversion, but I skimmed the episode and it was set to 24.0C/75F earlier. I suppose the implication is that the dad wants the house to be cool when he's around, but explicitly makes her mom turn it off when he's not around. The Japanese really do make it a note to not blast the AC during the summer, and it's showing that papa doesn't give a fuck.
Very good, subtle storytelling.

>>280489198
She used her value as a hole and won just like her mom.

>>280490659
Nice find

>>280489966
There's a lot of dark comedy in this anime, mainly resulting from Takopii's naivete.

Why didn't anyone talk about Shizuka wanting to grab the mantis on Marinapi's head? That was cute.

>>280487092 (OP)

Junya deserves better

>>280490906
A better little brother?

Marina-chan was right...

filler episode
boy traumatized by being worse than oniichan = KUSO
marina smiling = HUGE GOOD
shizuku now is unchecked and is showing her true colors, BULLYING WAS KEEPING HER UNDER CONTROL
we need bullying

>>280491253
Marina did not smile this episode.

>>280487092 (OP)
are all the adults in this manga psychopaths?
goddamn even the teacher couldn't be bother less to see a child being literally tortured by the others.
fucking hell mate.

>>280491437

only Shizuka is psychopath

>>280491709
Maripi is too good for this world.

i love this retarded octopus and its psychopathic bestie

>>280489966
i found it cute

>>280487092 (OP)
There's noone sane in this story. Reminds me of Happy Sugar Life.

>>280491638
You have no idea how realistic that is. Teachers don't give a shit. You can get literally tortured by your classmates during class and some teachers won't even look at you and will pretend that nothing is happening.

So the moral of this story is that you should bully the weird kid harder?

>>280492640
yes
shizuka kuzo? more like SHITZUKA KUSO LMOAOOOOOOOOOOOOO

>>280489198
It's first time she is not feeling weak

I love the expressions she made

I bursted out laughing when I heard the omnitrix sound effect being used here

>>280492533
Junya

>>280493185
disgusting

>>280489198
She is simply acting according to her nature

>>280493482
this fuck women in all senses

Kohara Konomi is so fucking good

This is just my theory but Takopi isn't real. It's all in Kuze's head.

Shizupii or Maripii?

>>280494143
Maripii is cuter when she cries.

I bullied a kid, mom! Love me!

Are you trying to imply that Western child care of letting their children becoming polictical assassins is better than superior Asian child care?

No wonder 4chan anons are so spoiled and unlikeable.

>>280487092 (OP)
Nah it's ok, Tako Pi did nothing wrong.

>>280492640
And happy glock day for everyone.

>>280489198
Kids are cruel mate. And they're just children, it's not even really their fault. They don't know how to cope with their fucked up situation.

>>280492640
more like dont start shit unless your're prepared to get hit

>>280491638
Everybody is a psychopath in this one.

>>280492640
Maripi killed her dog. Consequences.

>>280490836
I feel like this show has tapped in to something very rare. It fucks your mind up by giving extremely mixed signals at once and it causes even more distress. You know how horror music using has low and high tones? This is it, but in visual form. When Takopi finds Shizuka hanging from the ribbon of reconciliation and was naively tell her she's silly for using it wrong, that was more fucked up than anything I've seen in ages. It did a full 360 from scary to scary, passing by comedy just to throw you for a loop.

>>280487092 (OP)
Is just a stupid author that can’t naturally write a horrible situation so he just makes everyone retardedly evil

>>280489198
slut

>>280494583
>deleted
?

Marina-pi is so cute. She should just replace the real one.

>>280496295
Shizuka...

>lmao she's dead kek
>*manipulates beta to hide body*
>just become a thief, lol
When did Shizuka turn into a freaking psychopath?

So the Japanese material calls Shizuka's workplace a kabakura, implying she's a hostess who just happens to also have dates with Marina's dad, so hostess/mistress at best, which makes sense that she would nonchalantly say that she would go apologize to the mom about Shizuka's dog biting Marina.
But Crunchyroll translated it as escort and the mom accused the father of spending money on whorehouses.
Which one is it? Is she exaggerating because she's mad and the dad just goes to hostesses and sometimes has a fling with some? Does he go to hostesses and prostitutes? Is Shizuka's mom actually a prostitute fucking not only him but several other men too?
Why are they not using the same terms as the japs do?

>>280496422
uhmmm chuddie, works have to be properly localized to make them understandable by english spectators... SUS AMOGUS

>>280496422
ever heard of localization?

>>280496422
what do you think hostesses do in backwater japan?

>>280496521
being stinky

>>280496578
i ufcking hate azuma he should go die in a ditch already

>>280496521
drink with customers and listen to them yapping about nonsense

>>280496613
ure right, i mean hostesses could sometime fuck their clients, but the way it's worded in the english TL they make it sound like a fucking brothel lmao

>>280496599
azuma-kun's mom...

>>280496578
This anime quickly shifted from the story of a bully and bullied girl to a whore in training and her first beta orbiter, the whiplash was unexpected.

>>280496666
Prostitution is technically banned in Japan, but things like hostesses clubs and massage parlours are often used as go around solutions... escort might be a close equivalent.

>>280487092 (OP)

I need more happy marina-pi

>>280497129
Truly the face of a demonspawn

>>280489966
Nah, it’s purposefully funny. It’s meant to be a dark comedy with the brutality of things contrasted with Takopi’s innocence.

>>280489198
Frieren was right.

>>280487092 (OP)
I glad I have scene about bunch of people be like “I can’t believe this is how kids are raised in Japan here this would never happen where I live” like I see for train touching scenes

>>280489198
Maybe she was never good in the first place and Marina was justified.

>>280498258
>train touching scenes
what?

Why is everyone so mean to our innocent, shining ball of light, bros?
I'd spoil Takopi rotten if he were my fren.

>>280498957
He (she?) is too good for humanity. To the point that humanity corrupts him

>>280498900
chikan

While the slap scene is good it loses a few point by not being an actual girl who was slapped

>>280489966
When things are too tragic for no reason they come off as comedic

>>280500034
>too tragic
u shudve looked at ur mom, i left her belly up after completely ravaging her butthol while screaming 'LETS BECOME ONE PI PI PI'. shit was so cash

For a second I though it was a Conan thread

>>280495799
I don't see any evil? She's just the average asian mother.

>>280487092 (OP)
On one hand this show is shit but on the other hand I welcome it for how good it looks and because it reminds me of the edgy stuff that used to be more common like Elfen Lied. 20 years have passed and the more things change the more they stay the same

>>280496599
stfu, Azuma is the least fucked up kid of the three, and the only one that you can actually fix
The other two are lost cause and will only be a drag on society, and I don't mean that only because they're female

>>280498957
>>280499053
Nah, Takopii is just too oblivious and stupid, all his efforts just made the situation worse

>>280500875
dude i dont want the orbiter normie boyfag in my yuri bullying romcom u fucking gay retard

>>280500925
without him Marina still sends the dog to the shelter and Shizuka an heroes with a regular rope instead of using the happy rope
with him Schizoka gets to have her revenge and Azuma gets to live an interesting life

>>280491638
I actually went through schooling in Japan. In my case, there was pretty much no bullying because the teacher would have reaped you a new asshole if they found out you were bullying someone. The downside is instead of your classmates, it was the teacher you should be scared of as mine was almost military-like in strictness.

>>280500925
>he doesn't know

>>280491638
>goddamn even the teacher couldn't be bother less to see a child being literally tortured by the others.
Seems pretty realistic to me. There are many good teachers out there, but there are just as many that in case of bullying would just say "What do you want me to do, I'm not their parent lol".

Takopi's Original Sin is an exploration of the human condition. One of my favorite manga ever, and I'm happy the anime follows the original work in a faithful manner. Good adaptation. The payoff in the end is great in my opinion

pic related is not a spoiler.

>>280501582
I just hope Takopi gets a happy ending. I don't care about anyone else.

>>280491638
If I were a teacher, I would probably be like that too

>>280501358
I get where you're coming from but almost no teacher would let things escalate to that point. Most would intervene when things obviously became physical

>>280501358
Many schools and teachers also actively defend bullying by enabling it is what changes people’s perception of it. If you try to defend yourself or fight back you will get in trouble and the bully knows this so they will go harder on people knowing they are safe.

>>280501732
the trick is to go all out all at oncelike takopi did

Crazy how over the top the living situations are for both the girls only for the boys sad backstory to be "WAAAHHHH MY MOM WOULDN'T LET ME HAVE DESSERT" this has to be a joke

>>280501877
Makes sense. People hate seeing boys abused.

>>280501877
it's not about the dessert

>>280501877
>he thinks it's about the cake
It's psychological abuse. It's harder to physically abuse a son when his big brother and father can hit you and he will grow up and become strong enough to hit back one day.

This anime makes me horny and it's not even lewd

>>280489198
I just want her to be happy, she's been through a lot and she had nobody

>>280501965
It's easy actually. If you start when he's little, even after he grows up to be strong enough to hit back, he usually can't psychologically. That's how abuse works.

>>280502398
Sure but it's not a risk a woman would be willing to take and more often than not such abuse would be tied to school so too late to start the process

>>280501582
I want to see the bonus pages animated

>>280501877
this is bait but azuma's situation is quite fucked as well, next episode will make that clear

>me at episode 1
>poor Shizuka...
>me at episode 3
>Marina wasn't mean enough to this whore
Bait and switch of the year?

>>280502652
not even a bigger bait and switch than Turkey

is it gonna be a classic example of a mother intentionally sabotaging her son?

>>280493185
Finally an useful happy gadget

>>280502652
Marina being mean is what created Shizuka
>whore
Some faggot simp discovers your crime, gives you a lecture summed up with "if you kill them you are just like them" and tells you to turn yourself in or your life is over. Do you go to the police for something you didn't do or do you make him help you hide the body?
Shizuka literally did nothing wrong.

>>280502483
same, they are cute

>>280501644
I personally experienced both sides of the coin. When I was 5/6 years old some guys in my class picked on me, hit me and some even stripped me naked and pinched my nipples. The teacher had a grudge against me for throwing up in the middle of the school recital so when I complained to her she would yell at me or tell me it was my fault and that I was overreacting.
On the other hand when I was 9 or 10 and at another school I had a teacher who was very kind and nice and genuinely loved kids, when you were alone she would play with you and would stand around waiting when a child's parent didn't come to pick them up.
I genuinely believe that in environments that involve children, teachers should be people who genuinely like them, but the truth is that a lot of them just dont care and treat them as if they were strangers.

>>280502862
as a kid? Fuck yeah you go and turn yourself in. You are not legally culpable.

>>280502652
Whore or not, but find around and find out, was justified. Castel doctrine n shit.

>>280503003
Shizuka doesn't know that because simpy filled her head with bullshit about going to a correctional facility or juvie and never seeing her dog again. Also kids can get away with anything BUT murder. Not to mention her family would probably stop getting government handouts

If you like this show, good. But stop saying it's realistic. Real people are complex. Even shitty criminals have nuance. Takopi's characters haven't. They're nothing but victims or assholes.

>>280500870
Good opinion.

>>280502975
>>280502975
>5/6 years old

You were in kindergarten right? Still fucked and you or your parents should've caused a scene and either go to the principal/headmaster or whatever a kindergarten boss is called or get the CPS involved. Someone's head would absolutely roll in a first or even second world country

lol lmao even. Real people need nukes to make to another day.

>cheerful
>cute
>eats cicadas

>>280503160
Nah, it was in first grade elementary school, I guess it depends on the country, but where I live it's not that unusual for a 5 year old to start elementary school as long as they turn 6 before the end of the school year.
My parents found out of course, but I don't remember they could do much about it. In the end they just moved me to a different school

>>280502439
Imagine lifting that skirt hehe

I don't get why he wanted the ring

Do girls actually physically abuse using violence or is it just a meme?
Aren't their bones and muscles too weak to actually do damage?

>>280487092 (OP)
A good anime would portray parents and children as ordinary people and make the abuse happen subtly, forcing the pinky MC and the viewer to rethink their own actions.

A cheap anime like Takopi reduces everything to pieces of shit versus punching bags because all it wants is to make the viewer cry.

kek

>>280504183

I just reread the manga. Man I forgot how awful all the resolutions were, it makes sense I completely forgot about the second half.

Guess the anime will end up being awful too, they aren't really changing anything on the story. A shame since they're really trying hard with the production and visuals

>>280489966
is it wrong i want to fuck her corpse?

>>280504786
Pls, don't tell that the power of friendship saves them all at the end.....?

impregnate marina-pi

>>280505060
as with all anime and manga it's about the journey rather than the destination
takopi kills himself to repair the camera and shizuka talks it out with marina even though marina battered shizuka-pi and stabbed her with a ball pen during the last attempt at conversation

>>280505185
It's worse, they magically make up after seeing a doodle of Takopi so it's not even an attempt of having a human-based resolution. It's purely 100% magic that allows them to """connect"""

All the stuff about Takopi meeting Marina first and his original mission being to kill Shizuka is terrible and super rushed too. And really bad at making you feel anything for Marina since the implication is she was still a piece of shit bully so anything Shizuka could have done in retaliation such as stealing her boyfriend is meaningless in terms of evil. It all boils down to Takopi being retarded and killing himself for being retarded, but somehow this is good enough to fix everything.

Seems like a clearly rushed manga but back then people said the amount of chapters was planned from the start, so it might just be an author who can't write.

>>280505350
maybe I shoulntve read your spoiler as an animeonly even tho I wrote the previous one..
>his original mission is to kill shizuka
for what? I know big mama knows about the time reversals but why would a happy planet denizen go around killing lesser lifeforms?
>takopi being retarded
it's not his fault ok? hes trying his best

>>280505474
>for what? I know big mama knows about the time reversals but why would a happy planet denizen go around killing lesser lifeforms?
I can tell you but it'd be another spoiler
First chapter is "to you in 2016", but then we get "to you in 2022", aka Takopi originally landed when they were high school age and only met Marina first. Cue montage of Takopi hanging with Marina while she gets abused by her broken mom, Marina and Azuma meet again for the first time since elementary and she gets him to go out with her. Apparently things will go okay, even the mom gets more chill after hearing that, but then Shizuka transfers in and Azuma dumps Marina for Shizuka for the same reasons he liked Shizuka during elementary i.e. Shizuka looks like his mom.

So Marina gets depressed, the mom gets super angry and tries to hit her, Marina kills the mom in self-defense and tells Takopi to do something. Takopi decides the right course of action is to travel back in time and kill Shizuka, so he goes back to his planet to use the time-travelling clock, his mom gets angry at him etc etc and he gets sent back to 2016 but without any of his memories, the only thing he knows is he is now banned from going back to the planet. That's when chapter 1 happens.

Mind you, all of this happens within the span of 1 chapter, some of these events are like 1 page long, it's all incredibly rushed and when current Takopi gets his memories back, nothing comes out of it. Only that he wants to "make evryone happy", it's really undercooked

>>280505818
ah that makes slightly more sense
I thought big momma made him kill shizuka
at least he stays in character aside from the first spoiler being idiotic

>>280502652
Shizuka hasn't even done anything near as bad as what Marina did every day yet

>>280503693
>Aren't their bones and muscles too weak to actually do damage?
They're doing it to other girls whose bones and muscles are also weak enough to take damage.

>>280490609
Oh well I've a shitty day everyday.

>>280487092 (OP)
uncovering the truth with the body of a child and the mind of an adult

why didn't takopi just do this

>>280504786
I thought the payoff in the end was great. A bit rushed but I have suspended more disbelief than that.

>>280506869
It just comes with not real weight to it. Marina never really atones for her actions, things just randomly happen, Takopi's sacrifice doesn't have a real reason to exist that ties up with the themes or anything. It all feels like the mangaka decided he was putting a happy ending but didn't know how to get there or was too lazy to draw out the story for the needed time to get there.

>>280506862
if the other gadgets are anything to go by the reconciliation ribbon wont necessarily lead to a good outcome

>>280506488
Call me crazy but murder seems kinda bad.

>>280507260
She didn't kill anyone

>>280502702
Why are wrestling?

if u cum inside maripi does she get preggers? if so will she birth a human or another octopus :)

>>280502652
If these threads are anything can to go by, pretty girls can do just about anything short of murder and be forgiven for it as long as they have a tragic backstory.
Realistically the only crime Shizuka committed was being too ugly.

>>280487092 (OP)
because this shit is terribly written suffering smut

I really hope they don't revive Marina.

Why do people like Marina now?

>>280506917
Idon't think a 9-year-old kid should really atone for her sins. Kids are kids, you can't expect them to understand what is right or wrong easily, her mother manipulated her into believing Shizuka and her mother stole her father's affection and destroyed her family. In her eyes she was doing everything she could to save her family. In the end she understood that it was wrong and that Shizuka was just another victim, and that's okay.
In a manga where everyone is abused and turned into an abuser because of their parents, Takopi remained pure and innocent till the very end, dying for what he believed was right and never letting himself succumb to the cycle of hatred

>>280507520
we always liked marina and acknoweldged her important role as the social check to keep autismos/outcasts in line.

>>280507390
Shizuka is cute tho
CUTE

>>280506917
It's really not a happy ending at all though. Nothing really gets resolved in Shizuka, Marina and Azuma's families. The point of the story is that they are all victims of their family situations in their own ways, and they all end up abused and twisted. In the final chapter Shizuka snaps and asks Takopi what she should have done when everything went to shit in her life, and all he could do is to hug Shizuka. That probably explains at least part of why you feel like the resolution lacks weight, it's because there really isn't a resolution. All these poor kids can do is cope with their fucked up reality. All he can do is help the three kids with little nods.

He tells Azuma to fight with his brother like he asks Takopi to do, which makes him get closer with his peers, and when both Marina and Azuma see the doodle of Takopi they remember him somewhere deep down and bond over it together without really knowing why. When Takopi monologues in the end after having sacrificed himself to activate the time camera once final time, he once again begs for forgiveness for not being able to fix their broken families, but remarks that at least they are not alone in their suffering anymore, that the most important gadget of them all was talking. And so Shizuka and Marina talk.

Even the lack of Marina's atonement is something that is a little questionable to focus on, seeing as what Shizuka was up to when searching for her dog. It's a story that is very focused on the human condition. How the abused become abusers, and how like you said, (bad) things just happen sometimes. And how sometimes there is no happy ending, but at least there could be some small consolation for those who live difficult lives.

>>280507549
(You)

>>280507590
man yous got such shit taste maaaaaan. look at the pic u posted senpai, maripi is PRECIOUS, shitzuka KUSO got nothing on her

>>280507595
It's a happy ending in the sense that the characters are in a good place, or heading to a good place, at the end. The resolution exists in their minds and interrelationships. I just think it's weak and unearned.

Them bonding over repressed memories of the magical alien is also bullshit to me. It skips the human moment of connection by tying it up with magic that wouldn't possibly exist. Nothing in the world could cause that sequence of events outside of the manga's magical deus ex machina, so instead of a proper reconciliation we get the author forcing the characters into the situation he wants.

The reason I ask for atonement is precisely because at the end of the story "everything will be okay" and they're now besties. I forget, did we even get a sorry from her? I mean it wasn't just some random teasing, she was actively trying to make her kill herself. The resolution is completely rushed and meaningless.

>>280508146
I think it's on theme. Takopi swore the bring a smile to Shizuka's face, and promised to somehow save Marina. All he could do in the end was make them talk a little. Perhaps it's weak and unearned to you, but to me it's tragic and bittersweet how little Takopi's ultimate sacrifice amounted to, how little he could do to help these kids despite having all manner of gadgets and a heart of gold. The only small happiness left is that at least the children aren't alone anymore. That's kind of the culmination of the themes in this story I think.

It's a little bit rushed maybe, and Takopi's ability to fix the camera by sacrificing himself is a deus ex machina kind of element. But none of that diminished my enjoyment of the story honestly. I was fully invested through the two or three hours that I took to read this story in one go and I honestly think it's a masterpiece. Maybe you would have enjoyed an ending where Takopi just becomes an alien therapist for the three kids, but I think this kind of ending was poetic in its bittersweetness, even though it loses a few points in believability. The core message of the story really is that some problems are unfixable, and at times you can only talk about your issues.

>>280508146
>Them bonding over repressed memories of the magical alien is also bullshit to me. It skips the human moment of connection by tying it up with magic that wouldn't possibly exist.

That's not an issue to me. People bond over things that are seemingly "deus ex" all the time. like a group of people experience bad event (think sinking cruise ship or something) and bond after making it out / as the only survivors / whatever. This line of thought is equivalent to "if that thing never happened, those people would have never bonded!" well, yeah, but the thing did happen.
I could understand writing it off if it was something like mind control magic to make them get along, or magic aphrodisiac to start a relationship when they otherwise would have never had the sex, but an event that happened and then a normal relationship starting due to "wow, that was crazy" is extremely natural.

>>280508540
that's also totally true. Having Marina and Shizuka bond over both their experiences with Takopi as well as their fucked up and tangled family situations is not so outlandish an idea that my suspension of disbelief was even close to breaking. I understand some people are probably hung up on the bullying though so I respect that side too. They were basically sworn enemies until then after all, but I could see them starting to talk just out of curiosity over something they cannot quite put their fingers on

Every person I've ever heard say this are the same people who say "My dad beat my ass and I turned out fine" when facing felony child abuse charges.

>>280511755
my parents never beat me but they do love my brothers and I unconditionally. Of course a little bit of physical punishment done when we misbehaved, minor stuff like pulling on the hair a little bit. But beating or anything serious like that never. Uppity children must be reminded about the family hierarchy.

>>280511824

That's kind of weird and undignified. Like an adult giving a purple nurple for punishment.
They should just stick to spanking.

>>280512117
>QUIT HAVING FUN

>>280487092 (OP)
Takopi killing Marina was 100% morally and legally justified, Marina was violently attacking Shizuka, it was an open and shut case of self-defense.
And that's just situation in the moment, if you add the fact that Marina launched a campaign of terror against Shizuka to get her to kill herself and every attempt to resolve things peacefully or get an adult to help was rejected then it's one of the most justified cases of self-defense in human history.

>>280506862
My guess is the ribbon doesn't actually reconcile shit and is just a useless toy like a lot of Takopii's other gadgets. It's just a custom on the Happy planet to wear it when making up with someone.

>>280513265
anon, for self defense to be valid it has to be a proportional response, marina was physically abusing shizuka but takopi fucking killed her

>>280513998
>proportional response
doesn't work like that. FAFO.

>>280509500
Most adults aren't pedophiles. Physical assault is far more common than rape.

>>280513998
It was an accident. Takopi hit Marina once to stop her from beating Shizuka and it ended up killing her. It was self-defense.

>>280513998
driving someone to suicide through abuse is murder. its always justified to kill bullies

gay torture porn like punpun. crazy how people eat this up.

>>280513635
It's kind of crazy how overpowered the time resetting camera was compared to everything else shown.

>>280513635
It's probably just an unbreakable ribbon. They call it “reconciliation ribbon” because you can't take it off or break it until you've made friends with the other person you put it on or something.

>>280514482
>Forcefully tie it around Shizuka and Marina
>Marina beats Shizuka to death
>Can't get rid of evidence
>Have to drag Shizuka's corpse around everywhere while hiding from law enforcement
>Die of starvation in a ditch
>Together forever in death
Seems plausible

>>280514263
doesn't really change much, takopi hit marina in the head as hard as he could with a blunt object. he may not have had intent to murder marina but it doesn't change the fact that marina is dead

>>280514543
Hey, she could always eat her corpse and cover up the evidence.

>>280514576
It does actually, because it means it wasn't murder. Killing is not the same as murder. A good lawyer would be able to argue that Marina could've killed Shizuka with the assault so it was a proportional response.

>>280492640
The moral of the story is to find something that both of you can bond together with.

>>280514672
In America they wouldn't even bother taking it to court because every DA would know that there is no way any jury would convict Shizuka upon hearing the full details of the case. In Japan there are many examples of juveniles committing cold blooded murder and only getting sentienced to a couple years, so the idea that any Japanese court would throw the book at her is absurd.

>>280514672
yeah it's not murder it's manslaughter, which is still a crime btw. also takopi is an illegal alien, you think a judge is going to look kindly upon someone illegally immigrating into japan and killing a little girl in a botched attempt at self defence? sorry lil bro, takopi is going to fucking jail. maybe if he's lucky he'll be able to write to shizuka

>>280514726

I'm guessing the gadget they stuffed Marina's corpse in must be airtight otherwise her body would've been a bloated mess by the time it was found.

Canonically false, the normal rope would've broken. It's what happened in the original timeline

Is there a reason Takopi can't go back home?

>>280514311
Bully from the 90s here, she deserved it, I would have bullied Marina back in my days if she was doing crap like that

>>280507260

Unfathomably based. Send all bullies to hell
>but muh sad backsto-
She could've bonded with Shizuka over it, instead she went out of her way to kill her dog leading her to suicide.

>>280513998
Marina violated the NAP, Takopii's response was justified.

>>280516696
It's a shame that it's implied in the ending how Naoki doesn't end up becoming friends with either, choosing instead regular friends thanks to his fight with his brother and the power of the PS4. I understand why: focusing the ending solely on the friendship between the two girls, and Naoki accepting that the main reason he tried to protect Shizuka was because he was also fucked up mentally and he projected her mom onto her due to how they physically resembled each other. But still, I wish the two of them could've been together. My cope is that just like in the original timeline, they will meet again in 2022 only this time it'll be the three of them, together.

>>280516696
sol spinoff when

>>280489198
Nobody else seems to have said it, so I will.
Shizuka being a victim of bullying, who loves her pet dog, does not make Shizuka a good person. Weak people who have no power to hurt others, and therefore do not hurt others, are not automatically good people, just because they haven't done any harm.
She seems to be, basically, a bad person, but never had a chance to demonstrate it due to being so weak. As soon as she gets a tiny bit of power, we see another side of her, which is this evil side. Apparently, being so mistreated by others didn't teach her to have empathy.

It's a huge and common misunderstanding (these days?) that victim = good person. But anyone -- good, bad, and somewhere in between -- can be a victim of other's cruelty. What matters is how a person conducts themselves and the choices they make when they're the ones in control.

She never could have become good person because she was never in a situation to become one. Its part of why I really like this show because it shows that lots of people use being a victim to justify their behavior and are to destroyed to ever really become good again.

The world is not separated into good persons and bad persons. There are no good people on one side and bad people on the other.
There are only people. And people do both good and bad things.
No one is basically bad, and no one is basically good. Yours is a childish and stupid way of thinking.
This dichotomy of good guys and bad guys is only believed by very immature people.

The best part of this show is Takopii himself.

That's up for debate. Could be disobeying the law about the rope. Could be intruding when she declined at first, defeating her remaining resistance to despair. Could be subsequent deaths. But 'original' implies that it's inherent in their conception of the world. I think the original sin was not accepting despair as part of reality. Trying to make others happy instead of trying to understand the absence of happiness.

You don't think a show with a pink octopus as the main character is trying to be funny?

>>280525562
the point being that the kids are just a product of their surroundings. The tonal dissonance comes entirely out of Takopi's naive lack of understanding

why would a healthy young boy not be into the designs? also you are delusional if you think anon isn't nearing his 30s

It’s so sad how the only thing keeping her going is believing that Chappy is still alive, and the way she treats Azuma shows she doesn’t really have a chance or know how to form a normal relationship that could fill that void before she finds out

kind of funny Azumas backstory is just my mom took away my le pancakes compared to the much darker lives around him, but it makes sense since his lack of validation at home is why he’s so easily turned into a murder accomplice beta orbiter for the first girl who smiles at him. Seems like there might be more going on with his brother though

>>280528633
>Azumas backstory is just my mom took away my le pancakes
brainlet
it's his mom constantly telling him he's worthless and his brother is always better and how anything less than perfection is dogshit and studying 24/7 is the most important thing and thats just from this episode

>>280528726
Yeah I get that retard hence why I said it explains how he’s so easily strung along by anyone who’ll give him the validation his parents don’t, I was just being jokingly reductive to highlight how his situation seems tame compared to the others. Not that it isn’t traumatic, with the tone of the show so far I was just expecting something much darker when he started having flashbacks

Why does it seem like noone else thinks this series is fucking hilarious? I'm not trying to be edgy or anything either, it is genuinely funny. The genre subversion combined with the fact that everything is so ott has made this one of the funniest things I've ever watched/read. Actually rotgl every episode.

It is obviously intentionally made to be dark comedy. In Takopi maybe it doesn't show as blatantly, but in other of his manga you can tell it's the kind of comedy he likes.

i cant watch shows like these, they just bring up old memories since i feel what these characters feel. its too painful on top of daughterwife material getting hurt, ENOUGH

>>280532331
Like the other Anon said, it's clearly dark comedy with the juxtaposition of the bright cheery Takopi and the horribly tragic characters around it. I genuinely laughed at a few of the scenes because it's all just cartoonishly tragic but not in a bad way. These things do happen in real life.

Exactly. The fact that most people seem to be taking it seriously makes it even funnier. This has been a breath of fresh air amongst a sea of isekai slop.

Same. I did have a void in my heart for a few days after reading the manga.

In part he wants you to take it seriously. At the end of the day I guess you have to feel sorry for the kids and all that and it tries to have some sort of message and moral, but at the same time some edgy over the top scenes are made to make you laugh. There is a whole subgenre of black comedy [sentiment of the opposite (Pirandello)] that revolves around this. Making you laugh at the misfortunes of others and at the same time hoping that you will reflect and empathize with the characters you are watching.

No, there are actual whorehouses. There's also knowing a guy who knows a girl who's in debt or forbidden from working and paying for the love hotel too. And there's also just bars where a woman will sit next to you topless and chat, and you get to negotiate touching privileges and tips as individuals w/o interference. Plus there's college clubs that do nothing but gaslight college girls into going to raves and putting out. And an endless procession of women networking to run their own 'massage' business out of their dinky apartments, some using door to door religious pest as a cover to scout out new territories. It's a vast and intricate economic ecosystem that gains new players every day. Mostly untaxed, too. If only pussy could pay for schools and roads instead shakedowns, I'll bet everyone would feel better about it.

Is that not the point of black comedy anyway? What I'm really confused by is the fact that the humor seems entirely lost on most people. Sign of the times, I suppose. Hopefully people can learn to laugh again.

In that case it should be 'Takopii's Gift', since that's often used to mean a curse that's useful to other people.

I think most people can see the inherent comedy in the tonal dissonance between Takopi's innocent interpretation of things and the harsh reality of the situations in the story, but they see past the surface level comedy.

Not if you push him in to snapping one day, that's how you create serial killers

Shizuka is going to do something much worse

>>280489198
What part of what she is doing is villaneous?
She did not kill anyone, she's just trying to not get blamed for it and get her dog.
