I SEE A LOT OF HOMOPHOBIC PEOPLE HERE

Lots of weebs are from religious countries and can barely handle themselves when other weebs insult Oreimo/Eromanga/lolishit. They're not exactly bastions of liberal views.


I'm from a religious country and I know how they think but it's making me sick to see it even here
and I really hate when they talk about the gay scenes but they never talk about pedophilia in other animes

Lol, this show lived up to its name: Shinsekai Yori = Shinsekai Yaoi + Shinsekai Yuri. And that's why this is categorized into 'horror'.

A dystopia indeed.

Although Saki and Shun are following the trend, they realized that it's weird for human to be like that. And it's obvious that Shun is going to be something mentioned in the story told in the beginning of the show.

1 thing that still bothered me is Mamoru's gender.

The yaoi and yuri scenes kinda startled me to be honest. Not that I dislike it, but I certainly didn't expect Shun and Satoru be couples. Well, they quickly broke up. But why, though?

It seems that the adults had found out about the kids' deeds a long time ago and now the kids are being punished for it. So, is Shun the first one to be punished? What are the adults intending to do to him?

Quite a few questions need to be answered here.

Love always has and will drive people to do stupid shit, it's ludicrous to think their society survived for this long while depending on that kind of thing to remain peaceful. A very interesting turn of events... the only reason that we aren't floating in space is the sheer weight of this show's balls stabilizing the gravitational field.

After the cliffhanger of the previous episode, this episode felt like it broke a lot of the pace and intensity that the last episode had produced by being this slow burner with a timeskip too. A lot of homosexuality was on display but made sense given how the show was showcasing the society needed to have love like the bonobos, where sexual activity takes place to relief stress and conflict as much as possible with not much restrictions regarding ages or genders at that particular time. It does make sense why it is in the anime suddenly, but I wish it was built up to it a bit better.

Wtf just happened ? One two year timeskip and everyone turned gay ? Is this some kind of punishment by the monks or just plain ole fanservice ? I also like it how we don't get to hear anything new until half way through where they decide to info dump everything about the king and those beasts. If this is the way the show is going further,then I'll drop it right here right now. What a disappointing decline from those excellent set of 3 eps earlier

I even read there would be some gay developments and color me surprised when it didn't even involve Mamoru lol

This would've made more sense had they given some scenes to Shun and Satoru and Saki and Maria. Before this it was only Saki and Satoru or Saki and Shun.

It felt like just messing with the audience on purpose because the baboon explanation doesn't explain why there were so many gay couples lol. Do they do it to not have many children?

Glad I was not the only one who got confused with the "everyone is gay" episode.

And the animation seems to have, somehow, gotten worse.

Still a good show though and I'll definitely keep watching.

Remember. Our real world Oil-based-Industrial-Civilization was based on agricultural societies.
In agricultural societies, they hate people who do not have kids because the society needed as many people for labor as possible. So if you eat the food, sit around and be all homosexual and don't reproduce, you were hated.

Look at history. All societies that permit homosexuality like the Roman Empire, Liu Song Dynasty of China, had economies that were WAY out of their agricultural roots. They became trade-based economies before they permitted homosexuality.

Look at us in the 21st Century. Our trend to tolerate homosexuality is no exception.

it's always periods of decadence either during or right before a massive crash and the civilization is wiped off the earth. it always happens that way every time.

A two year time-skip where seemingly nothing bad happened to anyone despite all that built up tension from the last episode. Also, everyone is banging each other now.

Saki can do better than Satoru anyway -- I guess she's with Maria, for some reason. It's odd that Saki is with anybody at all really. She definitely doesn't seem like a sexually driven character. She's even coming off as disgusted at herself here in this episode. Though, wanting to gasm could just be indoctrinated behavior just like in Brave New World.

I guess Saki was pining after Shun after all, equally weird.

If Shun is such a genius as this episode insisted, I can't imagine they'd readily kill him anyway. Especially if he's expected to take over in the future. The other kids probably won't get the same preferential treatment though.

What tf is with the art/animation with this show? For 4 episodes it was gorgeous, the 5th was an atrocity, the 6-7th brought it back and now it's ugly again with the 8th?

At least only the first half of the episode had inconsistent art/animation and wasn't nearly as bad as episode 5, but what's going on?

I expected this thread to have tons of butthurt comments and I wasn't disappointed lol what surprised me more is that so many people didn't even realize why the "gay stuff" was happening, even though it was literally explained several episodes prior. If you're going to complain about something so trivial, at least comprehend what you're watching, jeez. Well, I guess if you were watching it weekly, you could've easily forgotten some parts, but not like it applies to everyone who left those raging comments.

Several episodes prior, the false minoshiro thingy explained to the kids how the scientists (one of the major surviving groups upon which the current society we see in the anime is basically based) tried to replicate the society of bonobo monkeys, where they have sex with each other to relieve stress, regardless of whether they're male or female. Since relieving stress is an important part of keeping the psychic powers under control, we're shown how the characters during their teen years are engaging in homosexual activity + it helps to avoid pregnancies because kids are seen as a danger, since if they lose control, they can bring unspeakable destruction, as we've seen throughout the show. Sure, maybe they went a bit overboard with the fan service part and they could've included some heterosexual couples for contrast, but the whole point was to focus on the fact that this is how their society functions and also hint that most of the teens probably didn't even feel anything while they were doing it because of the engineered homosexuality aspect, even though a lot of them, including some of the main characters, had certainly formed at least some kind of a romantic attachment with people of the same sex and it can certainly be described as genuine. So, I decided to check what people were saying here and, of course, it was something like "nooo everyone turned gay without a reason and are now kissing, so evil, disgusting, will drop the show" etc. and I was kind of disheartened more by the fact that they didn't even understand what was happening, but their complaints knew no bounds :) and I decided to point that out because I felt like it (I don't usually comment in episode/chapter threads).

Disgusting. How did that kid went from being the typical energetic masculine youth to gay? Like this came completely out of left field, It does not make sense psychologically. The two kids the male and female had gone through tough shit with the rat monsters and even shared intimate moments, you would think their relationship would develop from there but noooo...

Now, I have nothing against gay people but when I see shit like this out of nowhere it just makes me puke and it makes no sense either. You can bring up the bonobo mojo jojo monkey theory all you want, the fact is you can't just delete the childhood friend factor who has faced a life or death situation and then from out of nowhere and make them gay.

Reminds me of Darling in the Franxx but the homosexuality and the horniness was justified and came natural. Mamoru is the sad kid that no one wants tho, at least that part is still realistic the less attractive men will always be overshadowed.
