AI no Idenshi Episode 9 Discussion

The Nagai Go meter was off the charts during the first half of the episode!
@Jonas-K
The director explicitly invited the PTA-like association and whatever other opponents he has to visit him at home so they just took the offer and went to see him directly.

I'm pretty sure that the school's staff started antagonizing the teacher because he started acting too ''humanely'' instead of abiding by the robotic teaching methods required by the school, not because he was a Humanoid.
I'm not sure I completely understand your last question: what makes you think the teacher was not allowed in the classroom?

They didn’t want to hire him because he was a humanoid and they wanted teachers teaching humans “with curriculum made by humans for humans taught by humans” they stared at him when he’d come in the teacher lounge, gave him excessive amounts of work and did not like him getting drinks for the kids after one of the students won an award.

The harassment became such that he literally quit. You did watch the episode, right? lol this is basic stuff

Not sure what’s confusing to you but I assume English isn’t your first language.

I didn’t make up shit. Don’t accuse me of anything.

Not reading all that lil bro. You’re not changing my comment

JESUS CHRIST STOP MENTIONING ME. I write massive essays on every seasonal and people like you only engage to start issues. No one ever says what they agree with, just what they disagree with. It’s annoying as hell. Blocked.

As I said, stop mentioning me. Any further mentioning will be reported as harassment. I have warned you.

Obviously all series/films in general are up to some degree of interpretation and personal worldview and experience coloring an individual viewer's perspective, and doubly so for a show like this, but to me the message being conveyed in terms of how his character was supposed to be portrayed is clear. Oyamada is someone who has a view of other people and humanity in general as not one dictated or explained by a clear cut, black and white absolute form of morality like good vs. evil, good and bad, etc. He sees all as some shade of grey and that this range or spectrum and variation is both natural and fine/acceptable to have and continue to allow existing. He doesn't feel a need to support purges or crusades over it in pursuit of an ideal type of human that can be universally accepted and agreed upon to be called "good" if everyone is grey to begin with. That is the light in which he views the main character of his anime for which he clearly draws personal inspiration from (and maybe it's also a form of wish fulfillment that he can act out in the anime through the character in ways he couldn't as easily or safely in real life, or in some cases wouldn't necessarily even want to). That is the light in which he views himself. And that is the light no doubt in which he views his assailants, since he says as much, along with other random people.

If you take this into account, then it's not really surprising that seemingly different attitudes could be reconciled within one person. Attitudes like creating and pouring love and personal inspiration into a violent aggressive character in his story while actually doing something which could be deemed merciful, charitable, and "soft" (you seem to be implying this is a naive/pushover-type action which contradicts his brash tough persona) to someone in real life like even letting those who committed assault and maybe even attempted murder against him off the hook legally. They're just different manifestations of the same general worldview. The children of the media watchdog for concerned parents' organization said as much in a quick scene when they said, and I'm paraphrasing, that what made Oyamada's main character from the anime appealing and interesting to them was that he was a rude guy who did what he wanted and could be ruthless, but could also do shockingly kind things sometimes so he wasn't a one-dimensional character who could be easily lumped into the category of a hero or villain. Hence, classic anti-hero.

But as I said, Oyamada seems to have a stance which views much, or maybe even the entirety, of the rest of the real world, including himself and everyone else in it, in the same way. Which is why he's willing to give even a guy who physically attacked him on the street, who the average person would obviously reflexively view as a scumbag and all-around bad guy for that fact alone, and you imply you do, a second chance or the benefit of the doubt and let it slide. Because he doesn't even view himself as "good" in the first place. So he doesn't see himself as some innocent victim and the attacker as some evildoer. To do so would undermine his own worldview and self-conception.

@Marinate1016
Huh? I thought you had already blocked me when you made the previous post?
And please go on, report me or whatever for replying to you in a forum topic, though I'm not really sure that counts as harassment in any possible way.

@Avvenirista Dude I read through all posts and you are writing a load of shit.

@Roch2001
Don't just make some daft drive-by post saying that I'm writing ''load of shit'', point out where the errors are in my argument.
If you're prepared to talk about the episode and your views on it then laid them down and let's have a civil discussion.

@Avvenirista Im not drive by you. I already made my comment on this eps. I was just looking at other convos and seen you posting nonsense so couldnt help put point it out. People like you who bully others is sad. If you want to argue actually go look at my post and pull it apart. Ill be waiting

@Roch2001
What the hell is this rubbish?
First you start shit by saying that my posts are nonsense without explaining what you think is wrong about my opinions (the definition of drive-by post), then call me a bully for whatever nonsensical reason and finally tell me to pick holes in your post, which is what, a one-liner?
If you take a issues with my posts in this thread then start picking apart what I said, I'm not doing your work.

@Avvenirista I read your posts and you didnt explain anything either. I really dont think there is a concept of drive by post except in your head. I called you a bully because of your see above ^^ postings. You didnt even comment on my post which was this eps related. I see you removed my and only comment from your wall before coming posting here. I wont post on your wall again as im sure you will report me for harassment or something. None of this is rubbish, I'm just being you.

@Roch2001
I didn't explain? Pretty sure I did, especially in my second post in this thread.
Why do I even to comment on your single one-liner post when you're the one taking issues with my posts here? You sound confused.
And why the hell I would I report you, I just removed the drivel without looking at it, because if you want to talk to me about Ai no Idenshi you can just normally do it here.

@Avvenirista I feel you are the confused one. Im sorry your so anti social. I just tried to put some colour into your profile a post to you wall was all. You seemed lonely. And my one liner was a direct quote from the eps. It was pretty thought provoking imo but your just dismissing it like that one moment meant nothing. For me, it was the entire episode. I dont need to write walls of text to validate myself
