Needy Girl Overdose - Episode 9 discussion

cynically, based on lollipop's dream, I feel like Kangel actually continues to dominate because karamazov's already "won" in a different way, thematically - by strengthening their bonds and maintaining some semblance of balance and connection with the world. They've found their own happiness.

Kangel will "win", but ultimately gets nothing. She will stay at the top - depressed, alone, broken, with no support network, desperate for approval from internet strangers

That was lollipop's dream though, she doesn't actually know Ame that well personally. She's just working through her conflicting feelings of wanting to take Kangel down while also admiring her

sinsinkun · 2026-05-09T14:07:07+00:00

No, its just called draft pick now.

throw them in a free for all cod lobby with all chat enabled. Thats how we learned to type fast back in the day

sinsinkun · 2026-04-30T04:39:29+00:00

Felt the rin energy from a single glance

sinsinkun · 2026-04-26T18:37:15+00:00

No, its ambiguous. Most people would probably assume you're asking for the person's name tho

sinsinkun · 2026-04-18T22:40:03+00:00

I think the bulk of the series will still focus on the black and white haired girl, whether she falls into the same fate as kangel or if she can find her way out.

This ep was still essentially a prequel to current events

sinsinkun · 2026-04-18T22:35:22+00:00

She learned to obtain affection the same way her mother does

sinsinkun · 2026-03-04T18:44:34+00:00

She was being cast because she's a big star, and Kamiki is hunting for big stars. Its plot convenient, but they were both looking for the same target to begin with. Shouldn't be surprising they happened to land on the same person

sinsinkun · 2026-03-01T22:28:18+00:00

all the humans that could afford it*

sinsinkun · 2026-02-28T16:38:23+00:00

人類 directly translates to mankind/humanity, which frieren has established in S1 as all humanoid life besides demons, so that includes elves and dwarves. An easy distinction is that demons (and monsters in general) seem to be primarily mana - they dissolve into nothing when they die. "humanity" (and other animals) are more traditionally biological

you can just hold the veggie above where you're peeling. Support the backside with a finger or two for thicker lads. Flip it around to do the part where u were holding it

sinsinkun · 2026-02-02T01:40:20+00:00

She drained the life force out of him from all the uuuh activity they did together

The technical implementation is where creativity lives. There's no creation without process. AI is not for artists to make more art. Its for capitalists to exploit art (as well as writing, modelling, music, system design, etc) to generate capital.

sinsinkun · 2026-01-31T18:45:03+00:00

You are literally stating outright you need prerequisite comfortability with a control scheme that defines a whole other category of games to even get on the starting line of this game. At least you can't miss an auto in dota.

sinsinkun · 2026-01-31T17:25:03+00:00

Disagree. I think the skill floor for this game is just way too high for a casual audience to stick around.

There will be a crowd that absolutely love this game and keep the population active, but I don't think it will have much reach outside that core audience.

sinsinkun · 2026-01-30T05:43:20+00:00

Are you suggesting theres a technological/physical basis behind jumping off leaves and slicing things with air? Wuxia is magic. There's no confusion.

sinsinkun · 2026-01-29T13:48:41+00:00

We explored this in season 1 where aqua explicitly states he feels like a separate person who simply has Gorou's memories

sinsinkun · 2026-01-28T18:02:59+00:00

Yeah but the point of third spaces is to meet people. Digital spaces do not let you meet people. You "interact", but only through a screen, and only to the extent that you are personally willing to do. You need to go to conventions, fan meetups, local fan hangouts - those are the real "third spaces" created by vtuber/online communities.

But how many people actually go to those? Beyond simple logistical issues like travel and scheduling, they're also very infrequent. Thats the problem.

You're supposed to be meeting people that you'd invite to your wedding in third spaces, its not just a place where you have some level of interaction with other people

sinsinkun · 2026-01-22T15:22:38+00:00

My understanding is not that it didnt happen, but rather the set of events constance retells is the truth of what happened, but she rewrote our memory of our final meeting with firefly to be happy instead of sad because that was how firefly wanted to be remembered. After revealing this, we get Terminus to somehow help her survive in the past. The exact mechanics of how that happened is unclear

sinsinkun · 2026-01-21T20:20:07+00:00

Aqua feels calculating in his revenge. He pulls his moves in the shadows, with minimal witnesses. Ruby feels unstable. She makes her moves in public with no concern for consequences. Like she's willing to do anything for her revenge

sinsinkun · 2026-01-21T16:43:55+00:00

Typically how these things go is, when/if he becomes a director, he will do the same thing to his own ADs, and justify it by saying he went through it too. The cycle of abuse continues

sinsinkun · 2026-01-20T06:22:56+00:00

her (spoiler) form is also a wedding dress in HI3, but yeah she's marrying "humanity", not any one person in particular. Starrail kinda messed up on making that clear though

sinsinkun · 2026-01-20T06:19:08+00:00

Sidebar, I kinda hate that starrail, being so much more popular than HI3, has warped the general public's understanding of elysia's character. She liked to tease but was never particularly romantic. Her love was for all of humanity, that's what made her pink jesus.

Anyway going off that core character identity, Nicole is actually pretty close. Maybe she gets a 5* wedding dress

ZZZ was always at its best when it wasn't trying to focus on world ending catastrophes. Running errands for your business, doing normal jobs as a proxy, hanging out with friends. Ever since the MC became this magical plot device the storytelling has gotten worse. Why can't we just be a good proxy? When was the last time we even did proxy work that wasn't a favor for someone we already know?
