This show deserves no cactuars!

 

[zedreamcast]

IS THAT A FUCKING CACTAUR!?

 

[ramoisdead]

SHOOT ME DETHGUN, I DARE U

 

[LOLDSFAN]

Bingo book.

 

[BassForever]

Or she could go see a therapist. Just throwing it out there.

In Japan going to a therapist is almost as rare as owning a gun

 

[daveo42]

Oh these guys...

And creepy guy at least likes tea.

 

[Grexeno]

CREEPILY TOUCHING PHOTOS

 

[SparksterMeta0]

...why?!

 

[blitzwolf215]

Or she could go see a therapist. Just throwing it out there.

Again, in Japan it is looked down upon to go see a therapist. Your suppose to let your family handle therapy, even if they don't know how to help you. Not that I agree with that, but thats how it is over there.

 

[BatDan]

Geeee, I wonder if that could be the best friend.

 

[Takashi]

Creepy touch. Okay.

 

[grandjedi6]

Oh, so JYB kid really is the bad guy. Huh.

 

[Moaradin]

lmao the real life voice filter.

BTW I think this straight up spoils who Death Gun is if you look at a screenshot of the screen

 

[Ultratech]

HMMMMMM

Welp, I guess we know who Death Gun is now?

 

[Mik317]

Ichigo is Death Gun.

which I am pretty scythed about...love Bad Guy JYB

 

[Imperial Bishop]

As usual with SAO...

 

[UltraGunner]

"yeah Death Gun got me 2scurred :kappa"

 

[GaimeGuy]

"Hi, I'm the villian, and I'm a creeper." - SAO Season 1 and 2

 

[Schadenfreude]

So it's definitely JYB. I mean, they couldn't even bother hiding for a bit. Good job, writer. Time for Inuyasha: The Final Act.

 

[TheOGB]

Oh fuck this show

 

[Crocodile]

Welp Death Gun is now CLEARLY that dude :/

Also "we have to sacrifice ourselves to see if he's the real deal" has to be the dumbest idea I've ever heard.

 

[Doctor Decimate]

lmao the real life voice filter.

BTW I think this straight up spoils who Death Gun is if you look at a screenshot of the screen

Spoiler

the opening basically spoils it, honestly

 

[MikeMyers]

Time for Inuyasha: The Final Act.

Modern World time.

 

[Zonic]

Welp, he's gonna creep on her in real life later on, I bet.

Nothing more frustrating than wasted potential. I'd rather see Sinon joining GGO & slowly getting over her gun fear instead of showing her being a badass then being all "I'M SCARED OF FINGER GUNS".

 

[Seda]

 

[lazybones18]

Death Gun wants Sinon? She's fucked

 

[Man God]

JYB being a smooth operator spoiled it for me.

 

[Takashi]

Seems strange to reveal the villain already but whatevs

 

[B-Dubs]

Again, in Japan it is looked down upon to go see a therapist. Not that I agree with that but that's their reasoning.

Pretty sure not being able to be in the same room as someone making a finger pistol without having a panic attack would be looked down on more than going to see someone to fix the problem.

 

[Shard]

Well, that was 30 minutes of pain, now time for 30 minutes of average with The Final Act.

 

[aspiegamer]

Sad but true. Mental illness is still taboo as hell in the West and we're incredibly progressive compared to the Japanese. It's sad, really. I can 100% relate to her self-hate.

 

[Tamanon]

"I've only had a few panic attacks, no bigge!"

Yeah actually that's as pretty big deal. I still feel I'm going to need to see some sources on Japan being shitty at therapy. Not saying you guys are lying but I assume some literature has been written on the subject?



So pretty much the anti-thesis of America?

Although the number of Japanese people who use counselling and psychotherapy is
increasing, the population is not, in general, familiar with these practices, based as they
are on essentially Western culture. According to my research conducted to investigate
Japanese people’s attitude towards counselling and psychotherapy (Nippoda, 1999), one
third of the total participants answered that they do not know if they want to use these
services because they do not know what the services entail. I also found many different
impressions of counselling and psychotherapy. The common perception held is advice or
answers given to problems, correcting bad behaviour, mediation, befriending, listening,
curing mental illnesses, etc. (Nippoda, 1997). When Japanese clients assume that
counselling and psychotherapy is about a cure for mental illness, it has stigma and shame
attached to it (Chu & Sue, 2011; Sue, 1999).

 

[Grexeno]

Crunchyroll, please put JoJo on one of your ads one day.

 

[daveo42]

30min break time since I'm way behind on Inuyasha.

 

[LOLDSFAN]

Modern World time.

Get hype.

 

[BassForever]

lmao the real life voice filter.

To be fair if you watch the full 90 second OP it doesn't even try to hide Deathgun's identity

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1KysL-S0i_M

 

[Crayolan]

Honestly, scenes with Sinon aren't that awful. They're not good, just mediocre and somewhat boring, but not SAO-level awful. As soon as Kirito comes on screen though everything turns to shit.

 

[Raxus]

I think this episode also

Spoiler

spoils who death gun is if you watch closely.

 

[BatDan]

http://scholarworks.gvsu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1094&context=orpc

That's... depressing.

 

[Doctor Decimate]

like, again. change literally two fairly small things about this episode and remove Kirito and it's whatever.

 

[unknownstranger]

This'll be my first time watching Inuyasha in like a decade.

 

[Chaotic-Strike]

Welp time for my hour break.

It's been a really boring night so far.

 

[foxuzamaki]

"I've only had a few panic attacks, no bigge!"

Another thing with japan is shouting stuff like rape and such is looked down up, tho thats more than likely gone down, because you or your parents dont want to be known as the girl who got raped on a train, which is why there are so many unreported instances of rape, and why there needed to be a woman's only section on trains. Which is probably why its such a popular thing in japanese porn.

 

[Mik317]

oh boy I wonder if we get full Adachi JYB now

yesyesyesyesyesyesyes

 

[Moaradin]

Seems strange to reveal the villain already but whatevs

Oh trust me, they definitely plan to drag this reveal out. They definitely didn't intend anybody to figure it out this early.

 

[MetatronM]

So the show is totally going to act as if we DON'T already know who Death Gun is, isn't it?

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Honestly, scenes with Sinon aren't that awful. They're not good, just mediocre and somewhat boring, but not SAO-level awful. As soon as Kirito comes on screen though everything turns to shit.

Her character isn't awful.... yet

 

[grandjedi6]

JYB is a great creeper villain so at least we have that to look forward to.

 

[UltraGunner]

Totally called it. JYB is Death Gun.

Also is it possible for a villain in SAO to not be a total sexual predator?

 

[zedreamcast]

Pretty sure not being able to be in the same room as someone making a finger pistol without having a panic attack would be looked down on more than going to see someone to fix the problem.

Japan is really weird man, again suicide is the number one death, theres a fucking forest where so many people commit suicide that the have a yearly search of it to find dead bodies, AND THEY DONT EVEN FIND THEM ALL
