Think about the life you live right now. Would you be willing to take the chance and dissapear from the life you live right now to go on this bus and go to this village?

Do you think anyone should take a chance like his? Is it worth a new life?

If you sensed a battle royal type situation possibly occurring, what do you think you'd do?

What if the Tour leader was Kineta and the cranky bus driver was Tyrel?


I've moved a couple of times in my life and yes it's given me new "beginnings" but my past still remains, along with it's effects. I could make similar mistakes here to what I have in the past so I'd probably just stick to this life and not try o go on this trip. I'd see an offer like this as Outlandish/ wishful thinking for weaker minded people.

If I did go and sensed a possible battle royal/ every man for themselves vibe going, I'd stay as quiet as possible and hope no one noticed me. Not Even Senpai.

I wouldn't, mainly because I'm pretty happy with my current life. I don't have the need of throwing everything I've achieved until now to start from the beginning.

In the hypothetical situation that I chose to get on the bus and I feel I'm in danger, I'd probably hide in the forest and look for help. I don't know, I don't think I'd be able to survive if everyone starts killing each other.

If I felt like killing myself, sure. I ain't got nothing better to do besides die anyway.
Well that would explain why half the people on the bus had a screw loose lol.

Sweet said:

Though if this question were to be asked a few years ago, I would have totally gone for the adventure. I'd definitely try to stay on everyone's good side if I sensed a battle type of thing.

Can't wait to see what this anime has in store owo

Too lazy to get on the bus. Too lazy to type this, however i m typing in. Too lazy to do anything atm. dang. I dont even wana open a few links to watch the 1st eps of other anime.....

Well if i have to take the bus, i will. Otherwise, I wont.

I guess. as long as i have my computer and I have my internet and my nichijo is not affected, I'll be fine without any start-overs.

I'd get in the bus, and join the trip to a mysterious village just cause it sounds like an adventure and challenge, and also since I have an affinity for mystery which is why I hope this involves quick thinking and smarts rather than brutality. Though life is a hard for me I don't think of quitting it nor retrying anything. Basically I'd join for the entertainment rather than for starting a new life.

Anyways, great questiion :) very interesting

No, restarting new life by going to unknown place you don't even know what it would be like is stupid and suicidal.

If I had to do it, at least I have to know where I'm going and kind of place my destination is.

No sarcasm, but that depressed bus driver's words were actually motivating

Now what if the people on the bus were the people of MAL? Not just Kineta and Tyrel, but everyone you see here every day or so? You look around and everyone is wearing Gintama or Clannad shirts and they begin singing the Mirai Nikki theme song . . .

Are you scared yet?

Maybe he's the only driver who knew how to get to the unknown village?

Either that, or it's past midnight out there, and there's no other cars (except the bus) around

A bus heading for a village, that even the police can't find. That's like asking to be killed, thrown into a torture chamber, brainwashed or whatever.

Ofc not, there's not guarantee for the village to have indoor plumbing or wifi. Plus I'm pretty happy with my life atm.

If I did go, I'll probably be the one who tries to prevent it from happening. (which would make me the most likely person to die first lmao)

Well this would depend if there was really a village where you can start over or not. If there was such a village I wouldn't go, but there's some people in this world who had a painful life, I could relate to them wanting a new life... it's not that they are all weak minded like over half that bus, there's really some who have been dealt a shitty hand where strong will and preservation won't cut it.
But like you said, if the bus would take me to a Battle Royal. Than I know, no matter how low I would be in my life, I wouldn't board the damned bus unless I was crazy and wished to be tortured! Have you read Battle Royal? If there was a 0,00001% probability of it turning in Battle Royal I think no body would board the damn thing.

I've been always run away from my problems. If I couldn't find a lot of friends at university I simply just changed subject. If I couldn't be good at sports I simply just gave up. I started over and over and over again but nothing was good enough for me. But then I realized, the problem is not what I do, it's how I do it. So no, I'd not get on the bus. I have to grow up and solve my problems because that's how life works.

There are some things I really want t change in my life but at the moment it isn't that bad that I would start over. Maybe 2 years ago I would've.

If I would do it, it's because I'm curious and in desperate need for some adventure and action.

I think yes.
" A destination where people can partake in a utopian existence, free of the world's obstacles"
Creating a new society from scrach. If I think about what this world I live in has to offer I'd take a chance to get something else.
I expect one would have to go throgh some cleansing before entering the new world but I don't mind.

I've been moving since I was born all the time so theres no feeling of belonging in me. I don't feel the need to be a part of this world or society. I don't mind it as long as it tolerates my borderline presence. If it is not... I leave to another place.

I haven't seen Mirai Nikki. I haven't even seen any mystery drama... This anime caught my attention because I used to be hyped on utopia villages (small communities, collectivist economy, freedom, love and peace iYKwIM).

No. No, I wouldn't. Not even if the people on the bus were not a bunch of ill-informed, angsty misanhtropes that have no useful skills in such a situation. Real life is not Atlas Shrugged and even there Galt's Gulch was peopled with individuals capable of making a new society.

No internet? No access to any information, period? Living out in the middle of nowhere? It sounds like my idea of hell.

It seems interesting, but also just an obvious "Lord of the Flies" scenario. You just know that if the hidden village myth turns out to be true, most of the people you get on with are destined to die horrible deaths. Not to forget, the type of people who would accept this situation wholeheartedly are probably a little crazy. (Oh wait, we already can tell they're pretty much all full crazy). One of them already wants to execute people as a first option, and on the other hand, one of them is Lion. OK I'd consider it!

It takes all kinds.

The only sane person in that bus is the driver. Except him, all of them are crazy idiots.

This is totally true, oh my god, are those people stupid? How can they actually believe that they'll end up in an utopean village when not even the tour guides know for sure where and how said village is?! They've done everything based on fucking rumors, oh my god I shouldn't even say how fucking stupid that is..
