Fumetsu no Anata e Season 3 Episode 9 Discussion

@holdingnothing I'm from Germany. Pretty common here as well just like in most other countries that aren't the U.S, to walk, take a train to kindergsrten and school by yourself and do errands etc, since we respect kids for being as intelligent as they actually are.

I don't think the fat guy is a pedophile; he seems more like a socially disabled weirdo with no ulterior motives.

I'm a little disappointed she got to "live" by being replicated. Now she'll never grow up, and it's a grey area if you can even call that life. For all practical biological purposes she's dead. for mental or daresay spiritual purposes she exists, but that existence is now limited. Also I feel like the episode kind of ended super abruptly but other than that I enjoyed it.

“You reek dude at least take a bath before you start dreaming. You can stay there forever you lolicon” LMAOOOO. Hirotoshi is still a pedophile pos, BUT credit where it’s due, he came up massively today and really put himself on the line to convince Mimori to come back to life. Can’t believe I’m saying it for a nonce, but I have to respect him a little for that. Could’ve easily left things to Bon and Fushi, but he wanted to personally handle things. Finally some answers about the Nokkers too!

So instead of straight up taking over people’s bodies, they’re incubating themselves in the human body and apparently learning from human behavior. Interesting. Based on how they’re acting in present day and next week’s title, I’m guessing Nokkers want to become humans and just assimilate into and or completely replace them long term as opposed to straight up destruction. They’re still missing that whole “love” part which is integral to the human experience, though.

I just felt so bad for Mimori because imagine having a mother that prioritizes men and dick over her own flesh and blood daughter. Idc if you wanna date, that’s cool, but NOBODY should ever come before your daughter. The fact Mimori resorted to self harming to get her mom’s attention and instead of being a normal decent person, she just gets upset at Mimori and blames her?? Then complaining about her crying at night?? Hello!!?? No wonder she offed herself. The mom clearly only got with Hirotoshi’s dad for money too, so for better or worse, Hirotoshi’s all she has.

Next week PV looks crazy tho I can’t wait, is Mizuha gonna somehow be connected to the new nokker we met at the end of this episode?

Another trash mom, she didn't deserve to be called a mother at all.
That brat Nokker was fking annoying. Gladly, it's gone for good.

I feel this episode tried to handle too many "taboo" topics at once, and kind of casually, leading to mixed results.

Mimori might have wanted to end herself, but Hirotoshi was no different. While not actively prone to be suicidal, he abandons self-care and decency in his presentation efforts are simply for people he cares about, not for his good. So he keeps flashing the Fushi crew, something he wouldn't have done if Mimori was alive, because this behaviour might affect her reputation. But the show kind of hand waves through the segment and casual audience would dismiss him as a weirdo incapable of decency. I don't know if the manga touches on his philosophy except throwing each otaku trope one by one. I did say I was interested in how a female author displays her take on the psychology of a degenerate male otaku, but these are lukewarm results.

Next, the torture sessions are off-putting. Because the set up and relevance are too much covered in mist. A lolicon+siscon like him might even find these sessions objects of his fantasy. But why? Is this representation of self-hatred? Sometimes punishment by children is the desire of people with immense self-hatred. Because they are being judged, despised and rejected by the "innocent". There is no escape, no excuses. Does the Nokker play into his psychology and enjoy the "research material" she(?) is getting? Because she barely uses anything lethal most of the time, as if to extract some sort of "surrender" from him. Hirotoshi's rage started when he was humiliated, so one cannot deny this is a battle of him also wanting to "live". So I guess when she says that their kind supports "death" it is about the person not being thankful for living? Then how does a certain mom fit in? She currently just feels like a sadistic caricature of a villain because of the overwhelming mixture of themes without proper buildup or breakdown.

Mimori's mother is vile in a very raw manner which feels lazy and provocative. We don't really get any input from her regarding the flaws or little virtues of Hirotoshi. So we don't get what she expects from him as an elder brother. Is she fine with what he is?

And, not bloating my post more, the resolution is just rushed. Hirotoshi and Mimori never really seemed to have organically solved their major issues or bonded in a deeper way because a plethora of other themes converged and diluted the narrative. Maybe they will have development in the future. For now, even Fushi didn't register much of anything here regarding his impression of humanity.

I did like Bon being cold and calculating. But this mini arc with Hirotoshi and Mimori felt like the conglomeration of various proof-of-concepts rather than a complete story.

DAAAYAUM BON
sword trow was smooth af

theyre all modern now ao i almost forgot he was a top tier knight all his life 😅 (plus all the reborns are like a mini squad pf super specialized agents)

Glad mimori and her brother got some closure, would like to see him somewhat fit and better groomed by the end of the show, maybe even in a little passing frame.
I judt dont know why not kill the brother and have him revive in a fushi replacement body, seemed more efficient...

You missed the point of my comment. In fact none of what you said was something I needed to know. Thanks for replying, anyway.

again, you interpreted me wrong, starting with taking "no different" too on the nose. Also you only got the superficial message of the episode which everyone and their mother understands, so I don't know why you keep repeating the same thing to me as if it is some exotic thesis punchline. Never said abandoning self-care is suicidal, but you hung onto that. You also misinterpreted what I meant by a complete story. Overall, you answered nothing, and now I am suspecting you don't get the material either, forget about my post. Also you are sounding like a stubborn incarnate of ChatGPT (free version) too, so I wouldn't bother replying any further if this goes on. Have a nice day.

your lack of comprehensive skills is not an excuse for engaging where you had no obligation to and wasting someone's time. Also you are neither the author nor anything you said so far showed remote engagement with the show. So unless you believe this episode wasted 20+ minutes on something that can be captured aptly within 5-6 minutes, you are severely mistaken.

Im not saying he should die, didnt you read the whole cmt?
im suggesting that instead of the hospital, pain and recovery time, fushi couldve just offed him TEMPORARILY (like 10 seconds) and make a new body for him of the form he had b4 getting beated up, just like Mimori n everyone else got revived.
