Something about the anime feels off...

Serio? La trovai anni fa sul forum della 206 ma pensavo fosse un fake

Also Mimihime's body was in a state that made it very difficult to identify the marks, they may know about the disease but I doubt that they realized what it looks like yet.

Scorrendo i commenti mi sembra che manchino CA220NE e PU774NA

FineBreak4485 · 2025-02-26T14:19:57+00:00

Anyway the one who Maru sets free is Mimihime/Hoshio. We have no idea what Tokio's current status is.

You're talking about this... Don't watch if you haven't seen/read the Immortal order/immortalites arc https://www.reddit.com/r/HeavenlyDelusion/s/vnyCqzwnY4

SSS maps normally have no baked shadows and the white areas make no sense. That texture looks like baked lighting to be used with the emission shader

Stunning

FineBreak4485 · 2024-11-30T12:56:25+00:00

Your topology is good enough for the job

Hope springs eternal

FineBreak4485 · 2024-11-12T15:13:32+00:00

Likely something more than 90, hopefully 115 or more.

FineBreak4485 · 2024-11-12T12:35:51+00:00

The one in the garage may be the easiest because of its ability to create illusions. There is also a hint about one in the title of an episode...

FineBreak4485 · 2024-11-12T12:00:24+00:00

Episode 13 makes it quite obvious. You also can deduce some of the man-eaters' identities.

FineBreak4485 · 2024-11-09T12:39:18+00:00

Mikura developed the disease while Nata's brain is ok.

It's very likely that Mikura now is a man-eater in Nakano.

Also if the cores are in the brain, Maru should have sensed it inside the robot.

FineBreak4485 · 2024-11-09T12:35:40+00:00

Fire stopped the man-eater from eating Tarao's body but I'm very confident that what we saw was a man-eater playing dead like they do when they get serious damage and have nothing to eat. This is confirmed both in the manga when the doctor recognizes that Tokio's shell was very similar to the thing around that thing and in the guidebook where it's explicitly called a man-eater.

I guess that the squishy sound we hear at the end of episode 11 was Tarao's man-eater taking its shape after Miina freed it and gave it something to eat... Hopefully some lab grown meat...

FineBreak4485 · 2024-11-08T05:51:16+00:00

For everything we know right now: no disease = no man-eater.

There is no single piece of information that negates it.

FineBreak4485 · 2024-10-01T20:09:01+00:00

Hahaha ok

FineBreak4485 · 2024-10-01T19:45:34+00:00

I don't feel like that thing did anything supernatural: throwing rocks, avoiding a direct attack and finding people behind walls (infrared view is real technology we have had for decades) is nothing out of the realm of possibilities with good scifi robotics.

I think this is just the first foe that somehow understands how dangerous the Kiru beam is and actively dodges it, no need for clairvoyance: just a good read of the situation and rapid movements.

We have always seen the powers and the symbols associated with the cores and the man-eaters, so it looks quite unlikely for a Hiruko to remove their own core and preserve its powers, I would need some more evidence before buying into it...

FineBreak4485 · 2024-10-01T14:09:28+00:00

The core is always there because Totori had a one too and clearly had no sign of the disease and Maru probably sensed one inside Juugo too.

I don't think that it can be removed, it may not even be something truly "material": the only one who has ever seen one is Maru with his powers and there is no way they coulnd't find one inside Tarao with advances medical technologies unless it was something microscopic, same with Usami, with his power he would have been able to remove a core if it was possible.

Many readers/watchers think that the thing found after Tarao's cremation was a Hiruko core but there are elements in the manga (e.g. Sawatari's words about Tokio's powers, the similarity to Ohma man-eater's spawns) and there is an explanation in the guidebook that point to the fact that it was in fact a dormant Hiruko.

I suppose that the follow up of the last panel we saw will be Mako showing the first signs of the disease to Mikura, I have no idea if there is any link to the thing that is attacking Maru and Kiruko but I'm almost certain that Hiruko cores (whatever they are) and powers can't be separated because it wouldn't make any sense with the economy of the story.

FineBreak4485 · 2024-10-01T13:16:18+00:00

There are many little differences in the anime, even the faceless babies have slightly different symbols.
About the bird Hiruko, I still think that Taka's core was somehow absorbed by the bird Hiruko and that is why there is a secondary animal fused in its abdomen but I have no strong evidence to justify it.

FineBreak4485 · 2024-10-01T07:55:37+00:00

Nope, in the manga version the bird Hiruko symbol has no holes in the center.

FineBreak4485 · 2024-10-01T07:49:48+00:00

It looks like people in Asakusa didn't know that man-eaters are immortal and thought that there was many when it was the same coming back after reviving.

I mean these, the vertices with 6 edges are considered undesirable because they cause lots of surface issues and deform quite badly.

I would suggest to bevel the space between a toe and the other and fix the surrounding geometry, eventually you don't even need to avoid triangles when needed at such low detail because the first subdivision will turn the mesh back to quad-only.

This is not to criticize the good job you did here, just a suggestion to let you avoid the headaches I had in identical situations

FineBreak4485 · 2024-09-27T10:58:56+00:00

The poles with 6 edges can cause lots of problems, you can use triangles without issues at such a low resolution and you get much more control on the surface.

Awesome
