Dead Dead Demons Dededede Destruction (ONA) Episode 11 Discussion

Okay, who F*cked up on the subs??? Extremely important episode narratively and it's completely unintelligible because the subs just...aren't there. I've checked a half dozen sources and it's all the same.

@StateofOhayo Dunno how it is in US. As a French, I watch it on Crunchyroll and the subs were effectively here. Maybe there's some issues in the english subs ?

@StateofOhayo Glad I watched it dubbed, but mine had the subs too.

We are more than half way through the anime, when are we reaching the contents of episode 0, episode 0 was pretty interesting which is why I decided to watch this but this has been really boring so far and they put in extra work to make the side characters look ugly, most of the them seriously need to consult a dentist.

Finally we get the invaders’ side of things. Extremely hard episode to watch, made me sick to my stomach at times.

I know the invaders are aliens on earth and appeared without warning, but I refuse to believe there’s not a better way than just slaughtering them indiscriminately without even trying to talk to them. The colony massacre is going to haunt me for a while. All those innocent women and children just looking for a place to take shelter.. Poor Tsutomu wanted to hold on to his ideals and belief that the humans could be reasoned with. Sadly there’s only one way this ends and it won’t be pretty for either side.

Sucks that both the humans and invaders are victims of poor leadership. The invaders’ leaders clearly didn’t communicate their post arrival on earth plan well enough to the average citizens. The Japanese government’s extermination policy and encouraging private citizens like YUF to kill invaders is only making things worse too.

Looks like things on the human side are about to reach a boiling point with the pro invaders’ rights activists against those who believe they should be killed.. I hope Futaba doesn’t really get involved with a terror plot and get herself killed or kill anyone. Getting some major death flags from her. Especially when she sent everyone home after they came to spend time with her :/

Need the next episode!

I think any good human being will find it extremely difficult to see living beings, human or not, slaughtered like this. Just means you’re a good person with empathy. Especially those poor kids.

Ok, I’m done with this garbage. This has turned into a soap opera with aliens. I hope they all obliterate each other.

Well we got a Donald Trump reference. Let's hope no YouTuber finds this show to make a 20 minute rant about it.

@MasterHavik I am actually sad, I don't care about the political implications of it outside of story's themes (even when it's obvious) but I always imagined him with blond hair and they didn't give it to us, his character is actually somewhat interesting if I remember correctly but if he looks and feels like a caricature then let it be

@Guilmon1 Yeah I wanted that too but he looks goofy at least. I am glad to know we will see mroe of him. I hope the dub gets a good VA for him.

@nhkam Oh no a Sci-fi show is being a sci-fi show...what a shock.

@MasterHavik your standards for sci-fi shows must be pretty low.

@nhkam the story is an apocalyptic SoL about the lives of 2 girls at the end of the world with a big political side plot, of course it will be slow, it's a character and world study and it does it very well, I can get why it bores you but it isn't as much a flaw of the story more like this kind of story might not be for you. The appeal of it is the slow burn of us learning about the characters and spending time with them while seeing slowly how the apocalypse unfold, if it isn't your cup of tea then go find something you like better and don't waste time in what you don't enjoy

@Guilmon1 I get that, and thanks for clarifying it. I posted my plot concerns about the prior episode and was enlightened about the source and anime differences so I gave it another episode. Yes, it’s not my cup of tea and I’m gone, which is unfortunate because I like the character design and overall quirkiness. However the prior poster suggested I don’t know sci-fi, which is absurd. This show is a human interest story (and I guess alien now) primarily between the two girls shrouded in a sci-fi setting. It’s a genre I typically like but the stupid plot got in the way of the story.

@nhkam it's because while the story is sci fi, Inio Asano isn't a sci-fi author and you can see it in the anime, he uses sci-fi elements but there isn't the feel most sci-fi gives you, it feels like the story of the citizens of Tokyo 3 during evangelion (I always feel like it's more close to gundam but it's probably due to me really wanting a gundam show from a civilian POV), even asano said that the story is about the feeling since the 2000s that the end of the world is here, and when seeing it that way you see why a lot of stuff doesn't have the sci-fi feel, I love the story but when comparing it's writing style to other stories I won't think serial experiments lain or gundam but more 3-getsu no lion and for some reason catcher in the rye (don't know why but when I read the book something felt asano to me, probably since I don't read much non sci-fi non fantasy stories)
