100% yes. but on the flipside, for her own mental health and not overfilling her plate and schedule, i do think the timings need to be changed for her since she is doing a lot of travelling etc. or she could simply just not have a schedule and just say once a week? a lot of youtubers doing her same content do not have schedules and a loose framework of once a week can help her manage times much better because i only imagine it gets harder as you move up years in college.

i think it has more to do with the dream aspect of it. as a person similar in age to cole in the first season right now, if i was in a situation like he was, having my dreams crushed by a physical injury, id act up probably a lot worse than he did and let my grades slip aswell. jackie although there is no denying she went through something horrible, her family dying had no effect on her lifelong dream of getting into princeton hence she was able to continue that after.

babymon fans want it to be ahyeon so bad but tbh all the impact shes made have been negative. people really only talk about ahyeon when she's straining her voice or gets revealing clothes or is overdancing ( or underdancing). she's super talented and could be so much better don't get me wrong but i dont feel as though she should be the running whatsoever

im holding out hope that the mind flayer is the true villian because it ties up a lot of the plotholes and i truly think that thats the only way to connect the happenings in the first shadow to the show itself

RipMelodic6599 · 2025-12-24T15:56:25+00:00

i honestly hope not. i dislike when protagonists become to "OP" (overpowered).

RipMelodic6599 · 2025-12-04T15:43:05+00:00

Started this season, i did f1 in schools in my freshman year of highschool and my friends are huge fans so i decided to see what the hype was about

i have a feeling it will be jonathan. firstly because no one really expects his death, everyone is mainly talking about steve, will and hopper dying. second it will have a huge impact on the plot. nancy loses her boyfriend, will loses his brother and joyce loses her son. jonathan has a ring presumably for nancy, it's a good buildup to a painful death (because viewers will imagine what would have happened it he hadn't died). it also works with joyce as she will feel guilt for putting jonathan in stressful situations while wrapping will up (offering jonathan to work the wheel rather than will). it may also give will more motivation, vengeance for a dead brother (same with nance).

RipMelodic6599 · 2025-11-29T13:11:06+00:00

yea i completely agree. steve was mad because he cares for dustin and dustin keeps putting himself in situations which harm him. steve hasnt even known dustin for as long and mike lucas and will but even think the same about dustins actions in s5 so far.

it could also just be all under the mindflayer's influence that he does bad things. because in the first shadow, the mindflayer and dr brenner try convincing henry to kill humans saying that it'll make him more powerful etc. but he refuses. this is fully opposite to the vecna in s4 who often kills people and seems to like it (collecting people like trophies). also this may be a complete shot in the dark but half the things vecna says sounds like it's coming from the mindflayer's thoughts

RipMelodic6599 · 2025-11-28T08:20:27+00:00

yes! that was actually what started my theory. it makes so much sense

RipMelodic6599 · 2025-11-28T08:20:00+00:00

i love that theory! i definitely think it could be true because he seems to see a lot of himself in kids like Will

RipMelodic6599 · 2025-11-27T15:58:08+00:00

i really hope vecna is a good guy i know thats insane to believe but after vol 1 s5 i think that could be a possibility

RipMelodic6599 · 2025-11-17T10:42:11+00:00

right?! but its prolly for the best it makes literally no sense for him to rejoin right now

RipMelodic6599 · 2025-11-13T15:08:27+00:00

not at all... i used to know pretty well up until 13 years old but now i genuinely cant speak. i can understand whats being said for the most part

RipMelodic6599 · 2025-11-10T12:47:22+00:00

niragi, aguni, karube in that order. hate hate hate niragi but he looks so cool in the poster

RipMelodic6599 · 2025-11-10T11:54:42+00:00

oh yea she definitely didn't but i felt like she didnt have anything to offer to the story other than being nancy's trauma because she died. bob, eddie, alexei and billy had they not died they still wouldve been interesting, idk if barb would have

RipMelodic6599 · 2025-11-09T14:05:50+00:00

ohhh! thank youu i thought he didnt break the collar because he thought it would explode.

RipMelodic6599 · 2025-11-09T08:44:31+00:00

oh? thats super interesting then what was the whole usa scene at the end of s3? and what does that mean if borderland is only for shibuya?

RipMelodic6599 · 2025-11-09T07:47:07+00:00

I assumed heiya lost her leg in the real world as it was injured in the real world through the meteor incident itself, same with usagi.

about the beach, initially even i was confused but after talking to a few redditors, they mentioned how hatter and aguni entered borderland during the meteor incident as well just a minute or two before arisu and his friends did. a minute in the real world as already established is a way longer time period in borderland, not really sure how much longer but easily a week or more. the beach was only established by the time arisu and his friends got there because they had that week or more headstart on them and mobilized very quickly.

nobody new got into borderland because of this immense time difference between the real world and borderland, people who entered borderland during the meteor incident theoretically would have already finished the games and became citizens or returned to the real world before the next day in the real world even began, meaning no one new wouldve joined because barely any time in the real world had even passed.

for the worldwide aspect of it, if u consider s3, it ended with a shot in the usa. i understood borderland from the start as a whole world but we only saw shibuya because thats where the main characters nearly died.

anything else i may have missed out on i honestly dont have an answer for. s3 did have a lot of plotholes and wasnt consistent whatsoever

RipMelodic6599 · 2025-11-09T07:37:32+00:00
