7th twewy VII - code: S.H.O.

(this is the liveblog post)

whoa, hey, let’s not jump to conclusions here!

god imagine getting a drink and it’s like 90% ice cube. sphere. whatever

anyway back to our normal friend josh

who can use jesus beams now! but still has shit defense and will get mauled by crabs the moment you look away!

center gay

f-”fujisan roku ni o-mu naku”............ god fucking dammit i hate sho

(the subs won’t tell you what the mnemonic is. but i did. just now. sho says it a lot in the jp version. it means uhhh something about a bird at mount fuji idfk who cares. i guess the thing he was saying while drawing the sigil last ep was a really, really long mnemonic for pi??)

fun twewy memories: trying to decipher that goddamn map

at least these guys lived! what a relief! (jk they die too)

so uh, the anime showed new wall reaper designs once each and then went back to the originals...??

me when im playing the second half of week 2 and keep getting mugged by taboo noise

CRABS

oh nvm i think that’s one of the new designs (he dies immediately)

MOVE OUT OF THE WAY JACKASS

yknow i never got why like, in movies and stuff when there’s a boulder or some huge object heading toward the characters, why they never go to the side?? even when there’s plenty of space to?? they just keep running straight, like that’s gonna do any good

Leave

they special day

fangs....moe.........

ok but i kinda prefer the game version where he saves joshua from getting killed by noise because he wants to do the killing himself? you cant just take away perfectly good brain worms like that, bro!!

anyway: zowee yaowee

m-...mark...??

oh. right, i heard they got permission to use the actual irl names for neo, i guess theyre using them here too (but they kept 104, ofc)

(”in the real life”)

anyway this was a fun little 7-episode anime

what

SPIDERS??

ok i noticed them in the op too but uhhh the game didnt have spiders, right? (are crabs like spiders?)

if only there were some huge red glowing beams of light from which we could infer their location!!!

ok blue ones work too

h-heart-shaped... moe???

okay so they switched on the lights as thanks for saving them before, but also beat’s here, but also he’s “accidentally” protecting them from noise on purpose(???) and now the textures are all fucked up

oh right, this hadnt happened yet. i guess it’s more dramatic on a roof at sunset

(z-zowee yaowee...?!)

they’re on the roof, but they have to go to the roof on top of the roof. what will they find there? perhaps... a third roof???

male gaze

fucking same

male gaze

oh come ON

so like, are cheesy paint roller guns standard issue for reapers

(oh so we get to see NEKU bleeding profusely from bullet wounds but not the character everyone wants to see bleeding profusely?? i see how it is.) (im everyone)

male gaze

they dont show his wings shattering either??? what sick fuck is responsible for not catering to me specifically

is that better or worse than zetta slow? i’d google it but i dont want that in my search history

oh right uhh the roof broke and now theyre floating in a dimension of prismatic roof pieces(??) that show memories(???)

male gaze (furry edition)

dude teleports all over the place and beats the shit out of them. pretty accurate to the game!

for one brief, fleeting moment, i thought they were gonna hold hands

rest in fucking pieces. pi-eces

then he explodes himself. and i guess dies, permanently, as dying always is in this anime, and we will totally never see him again

josh pushes neku off the roof, clear of the explosion. good thing there’s another roof not too far below

“oops, i could’ve sworn the other roof was on that side :3c”

he ends up back in blank white background zone. gosh, if there’s one thing i cant stand, it’s when art has a blank white background!

kitaniji is slow clapping, because secretly he sent the final mission to get rid of minamimoto for everyone. guess he heard one “megs” too many........

ah, so THAT’S why he dyed his hair in the sequel

#you cant complain about me repeating the same joke when the animators are making it this easy

Neo twewy liveblog, Week 3, day 1

I hate the heating analogies from Shiba. It worries me.

Pls let us team up with Kariya and Uzuki. Pls pls pls.

Seen the first guy with “…” head empty no thoughts. A lot of people are also just staring up at the sky……hmmmm

Omg the sad JotM worker sadly beatboxing.

I’m seeing a lot of CAT graffiti in places not Udagawa…including on ledges that only Shoka can help us reach. (Also Rindo’s Pin was on one of those hard to reach places….so Hanekoma is somewhat involved here?)

Love Kanon ❤️ best girl

Rindo saw his reflection…… Can that even happen if you’re in the UG?

Yesssss!!! Hishima is here!!!!! Finally I get to see my boy (I only know of him from the trailer I’m excited to actually meet him lol)

Coco and Sho haven’t been relevant for a long while. I wonder what they’re up to.

-(slaps neo twewy) this bad boy can fit so many genders in it

-ACTUALLY I should start with theories I have:

-"neku" (it's obviously not neku, guys, come on) and the game master are related somehow. whether that means they're the same person or not, I don't know, but somehow. Related.

-i don't think neku and rindo are related though

-i don't know ANYTHING about this fucking game I genuinely cannot make theories aside from that

-coco resurrected sho and that's going to come up.....eventually?

-(immediately switches to jp audio)

-wunafour

-SWALLOW USES THEY/THEM??? idk who swallow is but let's GOOOO

-frets name is tosai???

-OH I LOVE THIS DYNAMIC ALREADY

I’m really not sure how I should tag TWEWY stuff now. Generally I’m thinking of doing something like:

#twewy for generally all things twewy as an umbrella tag

#twewy anime for anime-only

#neo twewy for the sequel

#liveblogging twewy for my own posts about watching the anime and playing the sequel and playing the original game (any version)

For someone who likes to tag all the posts, I actually don’t have organized TWEWY tags for my liveblogging stuff. I’m trying to think if I should have separate tags for the anime and the sequel, mostly so other people can mute the tag if they want to avoid spoilers for specific incarnations of TWEWY. But I really can’t be bothered to keep up that much granularity.

Or maybe I should just have a general #twewy spoilers tag? But I’m also like... personally I tried to mute that tag just because I wanted to avoid A New Day spoilers but I ended up blocking a loooot of normal TWEWY posts because it was used for generally anything about TWEWY’s story (because Final Remix came out and lots of new people played it, so it was understandable).

lol I’m overthinking this probably. Guess I’ll just slap everything spoiler-related with #twewy spoilers and let people decide for themselves.

#mine musings #i say all this as if i'm big in the twewy community lmao #i just blog in my little corner #and try to label everything so i can find my posts easier and so other people can mute what they need to mute

Secret Reports

Gonna just edit this thing and put line breaks as I get more of them.

I’m also working on the rest of the completion, and will probably wander off in the middle of this to do Another Day, which will probably have its own post. I fully expect that to be sheer madness.

#1 So is it just me or is Mr H writing these reports to channel how extremely stressed he is. Cuz like. Mood. *gestures vaguely at blog* *gestures at this post specifically*

I. Hold up. Skeezy McFuckwad and Joshua did what resulting in which now. Excuse me. EXPLAIN!??! Joshua had a sneaky Game running with Skeezy that directly lead to Hazuki ordering Skeezy to destroy Shinjuku??? Is that what I am reading. Or possibly the order was already in the works, and then there was the Game, which ultimately just pushed that forward?? You can’t just say shit like that and not give details ffffffff.

#2 Mr H having about as much contempt for Shinjuku rules as I do I feel seen haha. Bogus indeed. I can’t remember if I said it in one of my other posts, of if it was in a group chat, but I made a comment somewhere how this ruleset doesn’t seem to work with the stated purpose of the whole Reaper’s Game system. Sweet validation.

#3 Not much to say except that if I had read this entire report when I actually got it, I would have been much more alarmed by all of the Replays Rindo has to do after that. I got it partway through week 3 but decided not to read it until I beat the game and then BAM it has this lovely tidbit about potentially being able to destroy the UG and RG.

#4 So, the business that the fandom refers to as the Long Game is known in universe by the higher-ups and Shibuya’s impurification, because it didn’t get ‘purified’ like Shinjuku (I object to that term but ok).

“The hierarchical freeze presumably stems from opposition to the impurification”

Skeezy wasn’t reprimanded when he arrived in Shibuya “possibly because most Higher Plane denizens still oppose Shibuya’s impurification”

ExcUSE ME. I. WHAT. In one of the secret reports for the first game, Mr H says something about the way things turned out be an ‘ideal parallel world’ according to the Angels. I guess he only meant the ones who didn’t want the city destroyed holy shit. That most of them didn’t want Joshua to change his mind and STILL DON’T is so massively fucked up I can’t. Dear Higher Plane, what the actual, ever loving fuck.

-----------------

#5 One hundred and four Games under Shiba. That’s… so. many. teams. Holy shit. And the teams we knew had seen at LEAST 30 teams go. And the three teams we saw weren’t small. So many people…

Also, “Minamimoto seems to be plotting something” is the funnies thing I’ve read in ages OF COURSE HE IS that’s what he DOES. XD That was some mood whiplash.

#6 I was so hung up on the lack of entry fee for so long you don’t even know. Like. Those were so important in the first one it was baffling to me that Shinjuku rules didn’t have anything similar. And then eventually I just decided that the whole Game wasn’t being run correctly and Shiba was clearly after something other than driving the improvement that’s supposed to be the point.

I would like more explanation on this ‘Rindo’s stagnation makes him perfect for time travel thing’. I kind of understand how his reactions being consistent would be helpful in being able to control where the timeline goes (also I just realized this further confirms that Angels remember the other timelines glad I wasn’t imagining that the Prime days are a blur), but what does he mean about being able to maintain abnormally high levels of imagination? (It might tell me later so don’t say anything lol)

“I can only hope I’m not overthinking things.” Oh, you aren’t. If I’m understanding everything correctly, Skeezy actually had two proxies. And poor Rindo managed to end up being proxy for both sides at the same time which is. A mess.

#7 Well, finally we know how Coco managed to get her hands on a taboo sigil. Plagiarism. Lmao. That at least makes sense and I can worry less about her being Something Else. I would like a word with whoever didn’t clean that up from Udagawa long enough for her to copy it though. That’s hilarious. Interesting that Mr H thinks it wasn’t a perfect recreation though, that something in him got changed. Once again, please elaborate. Please. *headdesk* What prompted Coco to just. Copy a taboo sigil though. Cuz that seems. Unusual.

------------------

#8 Ok there’s a lot to unpack in this one. Namely, more Shinjuku rules. I would love to know if these are long standing rules or relatively recent. Cuz like. Did Shinjuku’s Game ever run in a way that would drive the kind of improvement that’s supposed to be the overall goal? Or has it always, or at least for a while now, been basically a meat grinder? The players that don’t clear that minimum bar probably just get erased outright, I would think. Actually, I’m confused. If normally, one team would get to leave and one team would be erased, wouldn’t that normally keep the average pretty level, so the Game would basically go on forever? Otherwise what do you do with all the other teams that are between first and last? I’m confused. It can’t be normal for teams to keep asking for more rounds. And what if the winning team says ‘everyone gets to go home’?

“The Conductor has yet to contact the Composer” and “it is possible he is unaware of the Higher Plane’s purification protocol.” I don’t know why, but I get the feeling these are important.

#9 These secret reports are really driving at the whole ‘Rindo just goes with it’ thing, aren’t they. Like, that was his thing, right? He has trouble making definitive decisions? So his arc culminates in that moment in Udagawa where he tells Hazuki that he’s going to take the risk and go back one more time, where he’s making that decision purely for his own sake. And here Mr H seems to be saying that prodding Rindo down the road to character growth is going to be a lot harder than it was with Neku back in the day. Which makes sense, I think. Confronting someone with the concept that other people have value is a lot less complicated than trying to get them to not only make a firm decision, but to choose something that is purely because it’s what they want and need, not because someone else thinks they should.

It’s a little alarming that this report implies that if the pin wasn’t absorbing the Dissonance caused by the Replays, the UG and RG would already be having a bad time. Yikes. This is the report for day 2 of the second week. We haven’t even gotten into the crazy time travel yet.

Aaaaand #10 is for completing the social network, so I have to actually go do Another Day. I want to read these in order; it is much less confusing that way.

------------

#10 I really shouldn’t read these late at night with a possible migraine coming on, they’re already confusing enough. The bits that made sense: Uzuki was acting Conductor damn girl. (Did she have to deal with Joshua and was he in Dignified Mode or Being a Shit Mode because that’s possibly an oof.) I had assumed Shiba was Shinjuku’s Conductor and then just kinda took over after they moved in but apparently not? And RIP the actual Conductor, apparently. Weird that so many Reapers made it but the Conductor, who by all rights should have, didn’t.

I am slightly concerned by the fact that there’s standard procedure for obliterating a district. That’s. Alarming.

I don’t think page 4 is continuing the thought on page 3. Fucking. Stop that. Don’t just say a thing and then start talking about something else I would like EXPLANATIONS. UGH. “Almost” he says. I’m going to go out on a limb and assume that almost is a big deal, so why don’t you tell me about it.

Four cases where a district got into trouble before a final decision on whether to reset or not was made. And one was the last game. I wonder if that means whatever was wrong that made Joshua want to destroy it, or if the ‘imbalance’ was all the madness that happened after he agreed to one final Game with Kitaniji and the left the UG. Cuz in one of the first set of secret reports, it says that with the Composer absent, the UG is starting to fall apart as the rules are no longer valid, or something like that. I would definitely call that an imbalance.

#11 All I care about in this report is that Mr H wants to have a digital art bonding party with Kaie and that is so random why are you writing this down you absolute goober. The first page of this report is like ‘everyone is getting depressed’ and then just a wild left turn into dork-town. Lmao what.

-------------

#12 I don’t think Mr H knows at this point (you get this report for W2D5’s Boss Noise) that the Ruinbringers are all Reapers. He’s gonna be mad. He does know what Shoka is up to though. He’s worried. Aw.

#13 It didn’t occur to me until this report hit me in the face with it, but they’ve set up a fantastic contrast between the two people Rindo knows from online. One is. not great, let’s say, because I did not take the reveal of Motoi’s true self well. The other is Shoka, and she’s a real friend. I now see what you did there. One relationship that’s a farce and one that really, really isn’t.

#14 Me, out loud, at 1:30 in the damn a.m.: WAIT. HOLD THE FUCK UP.

If getting Tsugumi out of Mr Mew required an Angel, how in the hell did Shiki manage to…? What. I’m very confused.

Also damn, saving Tsugumi was so important that Shinjuku’s Conductor died for it. Did he know what she could do, the whole visions thing? Or maybe that something was wrong with Shiba and it would take someone like her to potentially stop him in the future?

I still would like to now how the hell Tsugumi got her hands on Mr Mew. Especially since its apparently the ORIGINAL Mr Mew and she seems to have had him during the inversion? What.

#15 So… Inversions don’t always happen when a region is purified. I’m trying to wrap my brain around what a ‘complete loss of character’ in and area that’s had an Inversion could mean. Like… I think I get it, but my brain won’t make words, let alone sentences. Like when you go into a hotel room, and it doesn’t feel like a home, as opposed to when you go to a friend or family’s house, and it does? Kinda like that but it’s the whole district that’s just… blank? That’s kinda creepy.

If there are so many who think a ‘regular purification’ isn’t enough, the a) what does that even look like, b) is that what Joshua was going to do to Shibuya and c) is there an intermediate step between ‘normal’ and Inversion? I have been staring at this report for literally 15 minutes now.

#16 “I wonder how [Shiba] will feel about all this after he is allowed to return to his former self.” Yuuuuuup. I still Do Not Like him, but dude was borderline mind controlled so like. Yeah. And I did get to kill him once, so. As long as he minds his business and isn’t a total dick from here on, whatever. It all just sucks.

*facepalm* Well at least we got to being suspicious of Replay eventually. Why did it take you this long Mr H. Though I do wonder what Rindo would have been able to do without the interference. He had to have some kind of latent skill for the pin to react to him, right? I’m now going in circles mentally trying to puzzle out if Replay is like, a leveled up version of whatever Rindo would have naturally had, and regardless, where exactly it came from. Because the only time I can think of when anyone had a chance to mess with the pin was when he didn’t catch it in the prologue. And I’m pretty sure it was Joshua who picked it up. Aaagh I’m giving myself a headache.

I find it hard to believe skeezy would just yeet a random time travel pin out into the world. That seems both dumb as fuck and inefficient.

#17 “Some of them who know what I am occasionally try to contact me.” Lol so Kariya DOES know who Mr H is, I take it. Alright.

I’m having some kind of emotion that Wildkat still exists in a way for the Reapers, and that some of them still go there.

I just imagined Uzuki texting him like ‘plz make the Composer fucking do something kthx’ and I’ve got the giggles now oh dear

#18 HA! I was right! Minamimoto WASN’T in control when he attacked us! ‘Distortions within himself’ though, that’s concerning. Does that have to do with how he’s come back from the dead twice now? And how Coco’s copy of the sigil was apparently imperfect?

#19 I was about to say ‘who would target him for his abilities?’ and then my brain turned back on because duh. Shiba and them were looking hard for Neku, to the point that they flooded the RG with Player Pins in the hopes that he would pick one up and get sucked into the Game. A thing that occurred to me last night at 3:30 in the morning because I am a disaster: Mr H says that Minamimoto ‘seems different’. Neku says much the same thing after he comes back. So… Neku’s ability to Scan all the way down to someone’s Soul is potentially close to as sensitive as Mr H’s long distance ability. Which is a little insane. On top of the fact that he can use basically every psych imaginable no problem, survived a pact with a Composer for a full week, while said Composer was using crazy light beams which probably should have melted Neku from the feedback, and then almost singlehandedly defeated the Conductor while somehow inventing four-way fusion attacks. Kid is mad powerful. And he’s just a human. Like, the OG secret reports say that people always become dramatically stronger when they become Reapers. Reaper!Neku would be unstoppable.

“This would be much simpler if I could sit down and talk with him.” Okay, I laughed out loud. Like, loudly.

So… Shinjuku’s Composer… basically had his Conductor assassinated by skeezy. And because skeezy was messing with Shiba’s head, he could prompt Shiba to take the Reapers to Shibuya afterwards, to start doing it there too? Hazuki ordered Shinjuku’s purification so… Oh dear. I might have a few bones to pick with him.

OH NO. OOOOOH. OH NOOOO. SHINJUKU’S CONDUCTOR. HE WAS TSUGUMI’S BROTHER OH MY GOD. That is fucking tragic what the fuck. What the FUCK. Okay several things make sense now but OH MY GOD FUCKING HELL I WAS NOT READY FOR THAT. Shiki fixing Mr Mew allowed Tsugumi to free herself because her brother had already done part of the work, I take it? Along with us getting the Noise out of there? No wonder the Conductor stayed, he had to go get his sister… Shit, man.

…… Did Coco steal Mr Mew and take him to Shinjuku?????

----------------------------

#21 isn’t very interesting, just a rehash of stuff we already knew.

#22 Okay Haz IS Shinjuku’s Composer. What. Why? I’m. So confused. Why would he intercede on our behalf, and why NOW? He was happy to throw his own city away, but stepped in to stop skeezy in Shibuya? And then tried to put it back together, and when Rindo was miserable he came to try to understand why. And then cajoled Rindo into having a breakthrough in his Character Development to boot.

Mr H says he has an idea why Haz did all this. And then doesn’t fucking say it because OF COURSE. *headdesk* That gets really old really fast, game.

I’m now running through The Last Day’’ to get the final two reports and this entire section with Haz is somehow even more confusing with context. God damn it Nomura.

#23 Even after he said we were on our on this time, he forced the Soul Pulvis to reform as Pheonix Cantus to make it easier for us to fight? Bro. What. Are all Composers just… walking contradictions? Aiya.

Shoutout to emotional support Joshua at the end there lol. I remember half-hysterically thinking ‘what are you just here for moral support?’ but ok. And I mean, it did work, Neku did manage to do the thing, so. *sigh* Speaking of, it is ABSOLUTELY INSANE that Neku manage to sync with the entire city without his brain melting. Remember at the beginning of the first game when he scans for the first time and has a massive sensory overload? Look at my boy, all grown up.

#24 Holy shit world building on how exactly people come back to life without everyone freaking out. I never thought I would see the day.

I still have so many questions but that was always going to be the case. The first game had so many things it left open as well. Agh. Time to start wearing new holes in my brain overthinking things.

The Final Day’‘

This is absolutely going to be long and rambley af so I’mma just put a cut here. This is just one massive post for the entire rest of the game.

Rindo is back in the RG somehow. Which makes less than no sense. What was that crazy beam. Shibuya is GONE there isn’t an RG to send him back to, even if someone did want to send him back?

That beam reminded me of the Jesus beams not gonna lie.

But… Fret. Presumably Nagi and Beat too. They’re. Gone. Poor Rindo… That’s the worst kind of gaslighting. Reality itself is gaslighting this poor kid. ‘Your best friend in the world is gone, so gone that no one remembers him. You don’t even get to mourn properly because there is no one TO mourn.’ I am also not okay.

I assume this random talking to us at Hachiko is the dude I saw a brief glimpse of in a screenshot from the final trailer. Hazuki Mikagi, okay. Everything about this is supremely weird.

Leading this weirdo around and he asked how we feel about emotions? Um, what?

Was he responsible for that beam of light?

This whole thing is extremely unsettling, I don’t think I like it. The music is all… serene, this guy keeps asking existential questions, who even comes up to some kid clearly having a bad day and demands a tour of the city.

He knows Rindo’s name even though we never told him. Not sure if that was a slip or an intentional nudge that Something is going on but there we go.

‘I should take this chance to apologize for Kubo. He’s a real piece of work.’ WHAT. YOU SEND HIM TO SHINJUKU?!?! IS THIS KID GOD!? WHAT!??!

‘Exorcised’. Like a demon. Which is a psychic rank you can get in the first game, and probably this game, ergo, a thing that exists in this universe.

Okay. So this Hazuki guy is Something Else. I dunno if he’s an Angel or higher or WHAT. He’s something. And he “exorcised” what Fuckwad had Fallen to when he decided not to stop at Shinjuku and continue on to Shibuya. But he only did this after Rindo faught so hard to stop it. And then he gave Rindo what he thought Rindo wanted. And now he’s here trying to understand why Rindo is miserable. Which to us, as humans, is obvious: the people he loved, the connections and family he had made through the game are all gone and worse, no one remembers they ever existed.

And now he’s being offered the chance to try again. This feels like a double edged sword. And I don’t care.

Okay I actually kind of appreciate the thing Hazuki is pulling here. He knows what it is that Rindo wants, I’m pretty sure he’s listening to his thoughts, actually, and in order to make Rindo own up to it he’s arguing the ‘no’ position. Giving Rindo someone to argue against so he can convince himself.

WHY DOES EVERYTHING HAPPEN AT UDAGAWA.

Bruh some of these clips were in the announcement trailer.

(I can’t wait to read the secret reports. That’s gonna be a wild ride.)

Oooooh that’s what ‘exorcised’ means. That is hardcore. He definitely deserved it but that is uh. Slightly inconvenient.

Can we actually contact Rhyme this time PLEASE. Oooh Rindo worked out Kaie is waiting for Rhyme. :O I’M FINALLY GONNA GET MY MASSIVE COUNTER OFFENSIVE FUCK YES. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH I’M PUMPED LET’S FUCKING GOOOOOOO!!!!

Who’s gonna protect them. Beat. Really. Just give them the damn pins at this point. They both know their ways around a fight and Kaie might need the backup. If we lose, we’re all toast regardless, and if we win everyone gets put back where they belong.

AAAAAAAAAAAH SHE’S HERE!!! RHYME!!!! Aw… She can’t see Neku and Shoka cuz they’re actually dead. That’s really depressing. Makes sense but like. Oof. Especially for Neku.

I love that Rhyme still has a saying for everything.

This timeline is going to be a mess by the time I get everything positioned correctly lmao

Beat’s ‘How do you know about my sister?! Right, future.’ is never going to NOT be funny. It’s very refreshing to have a time travel plot where people just listen when he tells them shit needs to happen.

Is it acutaly Shiki time ohh my god. I might cry. Please tell me she has a face now. If her face is still illegal I will actually scream.

I’m offended. We didn’t get to go see Shiki. The betrayal. OH but now we might be? Stop playing with me, game. GIVE. ME. SHIKI.

Rindo was freaking out that we weren’t gonna be able to get rid of all the Noise around the café and I definitely threw my hands up and yelled when I saw the word ‘zeptogram’. And I read it before he said it, cuz I read v. fast. Nice to see you again, idiot. Please don’t go berserk again.

I am. Very impressed that Minamimoto managed to work out where the Dissonance Noise are coming from, down to the exact energy source that creates them. He nailed it. Well done sir.

I think… he’s proposing we awaken the city and use the energy generated by the thoughts and emotions of the living people to neutralize some of the Dissonance Noise that are waiting in the pin. Erode some of its power.

“How about this: I’ll talk, you type.” Lmao.

I got denied Shiki again. Part of me is annoyed. The other part of me is like ‘are they saving her entrance for when she can see Neku again properly because I can live with that’.

OH the Hishima cutscene is voiced now OKAY. Guess that means this is the one. Rhyme is voiced too. This is gonna be it.

And she speaks Minamioto. Coo.

Huh. Neku’s power is to sync with people. Which he learned to do in the first game. From Mr H, with the harmonizer pin. (Twister is playing and I have Emotions help) And now he’s gonna do it on an absolutely MASSIVE scale. This is insane. I am 1,000% here for it. Sync, Dive, Remind. And if I had to guess, we’re doing this atop 104.

Alright Shiba. ‘Mere. Tsugumi’s eyes aren’t all freaky anymore yay. Oh snap. He’s gonna unleash the Plague Noise against the Dissonance ones. Nice. Turnabout is fair play. I’m kinda sad Fuckwad isn’t here to witness that.

Alright. Change. Our. Fate.

SHIIIIIIIIIIKKKKKKKKKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I gave myself a headache ow.

“07734.” “Ew. Hey! Don’t just spout off numbers and walk away, you jerk!” That was amazing.

FUCK ME SIDEWAYS. OH MY GOD. OH MY GOD. NO. NO WAY. I DIDN’T THINK THERE WAS ANY WAY. OH. MY. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH. This is the first time Neku’s seen him since Joshua failed to stop Coco from killing him. I’m. A puddle. Help. Neku looked so happy. My cat is slightly concerned haha.

Neku still holds his hands like he’s got the headphones. The same pose as in the first game when you scan. This gives me all the feels.

“They’re just mindless thoughts” Okay so I’m mentally exhausted at this point and I processed that as ‘thots’ and it was hilarious. BEGONE THOTS.

Okay this thing right here? This is a final boss. And it is cool as fuck. Too bad it’s trying to END ME. So cool. SO. COOL. Here comes phase 2 lol. I died and had to redo it. FML.

That. Was awesome. A worthy successor to the epic final strike of the first game. 999% eh?

I continue to not like Shinjuku rules. Once you’re a Reaper, leaving means you get erased once the game ends? Disrespectfully, fuck that. Oh don’t you dare, Shoka. Don’t. You. Dare.

Oh, Joshua is here. PLEASE. Lmao Shoka’s reaction. I’m sure he appreciates that, the drama queen.

*facepalms* Joshua strikes again. I’ve missed you, you little shit. You are terrible, but I missed you. Rindo, I’m pretty sure she’s fine. I think captain helpful over here reincarnated her for you. Since you saved him and his city. I guess I’ll see though.

Uzuki and Kariya continue to be adorable. I love them. And yeah, good luck calling in that debt from Minamimoto, Coco. Gooooood luck.

I’m having a lot of Joshua centered emotions right now there is too much Joshua all at once help. “I should have known I could trust you.” You are killing me dude. You really, really should have. I’m going to turn that line over in my head for way too long, I just know it, but let’s try to get through this before my brain turns off completely. “Let’s not keep her waiting.” OKAY THANKS I’M GONNA CRY AGAIN.

What Hazuki was saying about ‘purifying’ as opposed to ‘destroying’ Shinjuku makes me think that restarting it in some form was always part of the plan, so hopefully they’ll have luck with that. It’s still profoundly fucked up that any of that happened, and even more so that it was sanctioned. I’m. Going to be hung up on that for a while once it sinks in.

This poor idiot hitting on Rhyme is about to get got oh no XD

Shiki is breaking my heart. Aaaaaaaah!!! Reunioooooon.

Ooof it’s been a month since Rindo saw Shoka. Big oof. Joshuaaaaaa.

And then they almost got hit by a car lmao. OMG HE MISSED HER FRIEND REQUESTS AHAHAHAHAH YOU GOOBER. Neku really should have warned them that Joshua is Like That lol. Even when he’s being helpful it’s in the must backhanded way possible.

I would very much like to know why on earth Shinjuku needed to be obliterated though. Like. Does that… Happen often? Maybe the secret reports say.

Speaking of, time to get those, along with the rest of the trophies.

!!!! The title screen updated, NICE. Can’t let anyone who hasn’t beaten it see that but NICE.

There’s another Another Day. Oh boy. I am not ready for that madness yet.

Random thought as I was moving this from word, where I typed it: I’m really, really fucking glad they didn’t decide to deal with Mr H the way they dealt with sleezy mcfuckwad. That would have been… I don’t have a word.

Replayed the entire W3D7 saga cuz I’m gonna have a friend over to finish it when she gets there and I wanted to remind myself exactly what would go down when so I have at least some hope of controlling my reactions and uh. I might have forgotten how heavy the end of 7′ is. Jeeeeeez.

I totally didn’t notice that right before the chapter ends, we see someone watching Rindo in the middle of the Crossing realizing he’s back in the RG. Heeellooooo there. That alone makes it a good thing I rewatched this because BOY did I react.

Also the black cat set is absolutely broken and it is wonderful.

#I see you creeping Hazuki #it occurred to me at some point that I really wanted to see Josh absolutely blast someone at full power and I kinda got that #in a very sideways way #different Composer but same idea #now that I have the mental bandwidth to process it: that was awesome #let's liveblog: neo twewy #neo twewy spoilers

Week 3, Day 7

Safety cut, line breaks where the original posts ended.

The Final Day

“I bet you don’t even know what the word ‘nervous’ means.”

“‘Ey, why you gotta call me out like dat, Phones?”

I have missed these two. :’) For the record, I’m fucking terrified.

OKAY THE CITY BEING THIS DARK IS AWFUL I HATE IT. NOPE.

-----------------------

Beat. Answer your phone. It’s probably Rhyme. BEAT. THE PHONE. NOW.

-____-

Why. *facepalm*

-----------------------

I may have zoomed right past Kariya and Uzuki with Soundsurf before I even registered they were there. Thankfully the game didn’t let me zoom too far. >.>

I simultaneously have the warm fuzzies cuz ~teamwork~ and a yawning abyss of dread in my stomach cuz this is it.

I’ve always hated those last talks before the final battle. They make you so horrifically aware of exactly how much you stand to lose, even if you win.

I do not like that I have to go to Udagawa to meet Kaie. I am hella paranoid about that place. Aaaah.

-----------------------

Shout out to Hishima standing there to tell me he’s looking for someone? And then not telling me who? Bruh.

Kaie is waiting for someone who holds incredible power of the non-supernatural variety. So Rhyme or Shiki? Cuz everyone else is currently accounted for or VERY supernatural.

Well that was a weird detour.

-----------------------

An aside: Beat is all grown up and doesn’t flail at his full name anymore.

-----------------------

Beat Shiba. There’s no way this is real.

Oh now time has stopped. Good. THE PEOPLE ARE TURNING INTO NOISE WHAT. (This is about to descend into an unreadable mess I suspect. Sorry.)

How did I get a B I almost died. I think that meteor thing almost managed to hit eesh. Alright. Here comes the shit storm.

Oooh Rindo. Straight savage. I love his habit of throwing people’s words back that them. It’s the best kind of fuck you. It’s way too early to celebrate my dudes. There’s still no way we’re done.

“Executor”? Oh I do not like that.

Damn he died without going Noise.

I had really hoped Kubo wasn’t coming back. This was very naive.

4:44:44. Of course.

Also, OH FUCK. RINDO’S PIN JUST ERUPTED KUBO IS THE SOURCE OF THE DISSONANCE I CAN’T THINK WHAT DO.

NO DON’T YOU HU- NEKUUUUUUUUUUU!! He. He. He killed… he erased Neku. No. no no nononononononoooooo. And the Inversion-!

What IS he?! (I think I’ve gone non-verbal oh dear)

Another Angel. It’s official. I hate the higher plane. I didn’t like them before, the whole business with how cut off the Composer is has always struck me as designed to fail and massively fuck up but this. This is so much worse.

Why?! Why would… Why would they decide to destroy Shinjuku and Shibuya..?

Shit, Rindo has been Kubo’s proxy. Shit shit. This is so much worse than the reveal that Neku was Joshua’s proxy. Joshua hadn’t actually DONE IT yet. This fucker has actively done it once and is in the middle of succeeding again. Oh god.

Minamimoto. He was looking for a way to consume and control the Noise Rindo was generating. That’s why he needed a sample. His first attempt didn’t work and it fucked him up, like the Plague Noise have been doing all week. Shit I really hope he’s had time to figure it out. I vote we go back, un-erase Neku before I throw up, find Sho, get him fucking cooperate for once in his existences, no that’s not a typo he’s died like 4 times, then destroy the pin before Fuckwad here can call the Noise out of it.

We’ll only get one shot though.

I’m gonna unpause now.

Okay watching Shoka get got like that. That was. Extremely unnecessary.

I do not envy Rindo having to explain all this oh boy.

-----------------------

It just registered that we’re about to try to kill AN ANGEL. Fuck me. I remember Panthera Cantus. Oh boy.

I don’t know how well talking to Shiba is going to work, when he’s probably the way he is because Fuckwad did something to him on a Soul level.

Lmao that went poorly. Shocker. And now, a scavenger hunt across time~

-----------------------

The scavenger hunt has yielded

Hishima and Shiba used to be good friends but Hishima refuses to be overtly helpful

Rhyme has mad hacking skills and Beat still hasn’t looked at his damn phone

“Must be from a higher plane. Everyone from up there is some kind of weirdo, let me tell you.” KARIYA. WHAT. HOW MANY HAVE YOU MET!? Also like, most of the Reapers aren’t supposed to know about this shit. I remember the secret reports very well thanks. Only the Composer knows they exist.

Coco called Fuckwad a must, dusty, crusty old cretin and this gives me LIFE. Otherwise was very unhelpful.

Uzuki just had an ‘oh my god they were partners’ moment re: Hishima and Shiba and I’m half giggling cuz my brain made it a meme and half having Feels cuz “things go south with your partner and then that’s it?” halp my emotions.

SHE JUST CALLED HIM HELLO!? XD UZUKI I LOVE YOU. SHE STILL HAS NO CHILL SHE’S JUST MORE PRODUCTIVE ABOUT IT.

“Can you imagine? Being played like that… and then having everyone just abandon you like you’re nothing?” It wasn’t until Fuckwad said what he is that I stopped being out for blood. I was assuming that whatever had happened to change Shiba, he had played a part in it himself. But if someone that much more powerful came and started messing with his head and his soul then yeah, he deserves to be snapped out of that and to be himself again. If what he became isn’t his own fault, if it wasn’t because he messed with something he shouldn’t have, then yeah. Make this stop. Then we’ll see.

-----------------------

Damn Hishima going straight for the jugular. Respect.

We got our cease-fire for now though. Shoutout to Neku casually reassuring him we’ll fight him to the death if shit doesn’t kick off. Like that’s totally normal. Aiya.

-----------------------

A thought, as Fuckwad is gloating over how screwed we are: Minamimoto want’s to “approach infinity”. Which in this case might not mean ‘I want to be Composer’, it might mean ‘I’m trying to make the jump to Angel’. In which case… That would be very good for us, I think. Certainly couldn’t be worse, at any rate.

(Exact line I’m on: If you thought that Noise gave you a good beating last time around, just wait till you see it now. You kids are in for a world of hurt. (No, I am not typing out his weird lisp thing.))

-----------------------

Oh gooooooooood damn it not again.

OH MY GOD SHOKA IS- SHOKA IS SWALLOW!?!?! HELLO!?!?!? I had completely forgotten Swallow even existed with all the madness.

THat. THaT JUST HAPPENED

AND FUCKING HE BROKE OUR PIN NO NONONONO OKAY OKAY HOW ARE WE GETTING OUT OF THIS THERES A WAY WHAT IS IT

Hello giant beam of light what??? I am massively confused. How. What. I do not understand what is happening. What is. GOING ON.

This post is long as fuck I’mma just make a new one.

Week 3, Day 3

Safety cut, line breaks where the original posts ended.

WHAT IS THIS!?!??!?! HELLO?!?!? WHERE’S THE REST OF THE DAY?! WHY IS FRET POSSESSED AND KILLING PEOPLE!??!

I am VERY intrigued by this format let’s goooooo.

-----------------------

So when the Plague Noise hits a Player it eats their memories? But not like, permanently, thanks to Fret.

Boy, we are super screwed if one gets him. *eyes that Bad End*

-----------------------

I JUST ACCIDENTALLY GOT A SECRET REPORT HELLO!?!?!??!

Ok I read like 5 words that was not a smart move I know a thing now.

-----------------------

I’ve reached the beginning of the day. It’s neat to see the vision and have it actually makes sense the first time. He caught the Plague Noise from her and it made him wig out. So we gotta get to her before she collapses or hold him back long enough to deal with it.

If we can’t help her I’m going to be very sad. He likes her, and she’s been trying to help him grow as a person. I don’t want this to get more tragic

but it probably will.

Ah shit.

Ah, my daily reminder that Shiba is actually the worst. Good. I had gotten distracted by trying not to die.

-----------------------

I’m not sure if he’s lying about staying behind, or about to have a serious internal crisis but there is something besides the Kanon thing looming and I am Worried.

-----------------------

Well shit.

This game really is gonna make me cry. Scratch that it did.

I’m just gonna sit here and eat my pizza all sad. I’ll listen to the rest of this in a minute.

-----------------------

Beat: The Shibuya Reapers are gonna turn out on our side

Me: I have been saying that for literal days. IRL and in-game days.

Whomst the fuck is swallow. Like. The list is very short at this point. They did say they were playing the Game, didn’t they? The list of names character involved in the Game at all is getting very very short.

Speculation based on secret report #3 in the tags. Or, the first page cuz that’s all I read. (Not in the tags anymore, just at the bottom. After a big blank section cuz I don’t think you can make a double cut.)

-----------------------

KAIE JUST TOLD COCO TO GO TALK TO SHIKI?!?!?!? I THINK??? Man she is NOT gonna be happy to see you. And a ‘higher power’. Hmmmmmmm. *eyebrow raise* Are we finally going there?

KAIE IS TALKING TO RHYME???????? I ThInK?!?!?

wHAT.

Speculation tags were:

so based on that little bit I read Rindo is another Proxy (damn it Joshua)

which technically means Joshua is playing yes?

and it was Swallow's text that sent Rindo and Fret to the Scramble

where Rindo first used his powers and they bumped into Shoka

in which case this would be a whole lot of advanced planning

yet more wild theorizing

I'm absolutely sure Joshua is lurking somewhere okay

and secret report 3 makes me sure it WAS him that picked up Rindo's pin at the beginning

So at some point once I get my Switch back probably lol I’m going to properly replay Neo in its entirety and scream about all the things that Make Sense on a second playthru but in the meantime something I noticed when bouncing around for completion (endgame spoilers):

At the very end of the game, it turns out that all you have to do to go back to the RG is chuck the Reaper Pins. Well, waaaay back in week one, they contemplate doing exactly that, and FUCKING KUBO tells them that if they do, it’ll strand them in between planes and I do not have the words for how... idk offended??? I was? Like. Excuse me. We almost found the loophole WAY BACK THEN HELLO??? I mean its a good thing we didn’t just dip cuz the city would have been boned but like. Bruh. We almost solved it. It’s extra rude that it was Kubo who tells this lie. I am offended I am indignant I would like to speak to the manager

I FOUND THE SECRET BOSS BY ACCIDENT AAAAAAAAAAAAH. *cough* That went poorly. Motherfucker did 5700 damage in one hit on normal fuck me.

Just chilling in the open oh my god I was not expecting to just bump into that, I thought there would be a lot more work involved god damn.

I’m... going to have to work on timing those dodges because that was a disaster.

Week 3, Day 6

Safety cut, line breaks where the original posts ended.

Yeah, I do not like the implication that Rindo using his powers is creating Dissonance. Worried that we’re going to use it and everything is going to just. Fall apart. But that pin has to be getting close to its final form. Fingers crossed it can do something nutty when it does.

Also it hasn’t just been me the blackness is totally creeping down the sides of the buildings. Thanks, I hate it.

-----------------------

I have chased Tiny down to the River, and am now going to go to sleep before I walk into that disaster cuz it’s three in the damn a.m. and my brain is melting. I also ran out of emotional bandwidth a loooong time ago and maaaay have almost burst into tears a couple of time when Neku and Beat started bantering mid-battle. So yeah I need to go the fuck to sleep.

Just like old times, yo! Some things never change! (Me, teary eyed, getting stepped on by a t-rex. Twewy is weird.)

-----------------------

I’m not sure if I’m more emotionally prepared or less after sleeping. I’ve got some equilibrium back, but the absolute horror has started to set in.

This week is… Just. Even worse than the brutality itself is how unrelenting it’s been. The closest we’ve gotten to a break was that interlude with Neku’s return and Tsugumi being trapped in Mr Mew, and learning more about Shinjuku. Learning about the total destruction of an entire city and its people was the breather. This week sucks.

And I’m so fucking scared of whatever’s coming.

-----------------------

Great. Tiny’s headed into the River.

AWESOME.

Once I realized we could jump down there I figure it was coming but that doesn’t mean I’m ready.

-----------------------

Oh shit it’s starting. We’re stuck in the River and it’s STARTING.

Sorry Neku we really have to go back. That was the Worst End. Oh boy.

-----------------------

Good lord I got destroyed by Tiny Cantus the first time thru. Phase 2 suuuuucks.

Went pretty well the second time.

You now it’s bad when even this guy wants me to end Shiba. Jeez. THIS GAME IS SAD.

Susukichi doesn’t even LIKE Shibuya, but he still doesn’t want it destroyed. He still thinks Shiba is wrong. In the Bad End, was Susukichi trying to stop him what triggered the destruction? I wonder.

“You tried to stick us underground to keep us safe, didn’t you? You know the Shibuya River’s not just any river.” I guess if anywhere was going to survive it would be the Composer’s actual lair. (I can’t think of a better word than lair ssshh). Still flowing from Shinjuku without a source. Hmm. Wonder if Shinjuku’s Composer hung out at the headwaters. Also he had the exact same logic as me, only without the Composer knowledge.

He locked us away as insurance. So that if he failed there would be someone to follow him and stop him from doing it in the next district. WHY WOULDN’T YOU JUST TEAM UP WITH US YOU BIG DUMB IDIOT.

This game is so. fucking. SAD.

“He’s always staring out at the crossing, waiting.” Was it Shiba who was talking about waiting for someone to wake up, all the way back on day 1?

“Maybe he can’t because of the Dissonance. Maybe it destroyed his heart just like it destroyed Shinjuku.” Oh… That. Would explain a few things.

I still don’t know who Swallow is FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

Ooooooh Rhyme is coming? Yaaaas.

Week 3, Day 5

Safety cut, line breaks where the original posts ended.

I’m gonna be giddy about Neku for the next long while. I am so happy to see him. And also to have someone who has (basically) the whole story of what went down last time.

Update on where the fuck he’s been and on Shinjuku at the same time ok.

WELL that is super creepy. And empty city but the people left their thoughts behind. Thanks but no thanks.

When… he says… Reaper friend… He means Coco, doesn’t he. Huh. Ok.

Uzuki has given in to the teamwork yuuuusss. She was worried about Neku, wasn’t she? So tsundere jeez.

I do not like Shiba mentioning ‘guest appearances”. The ‘old flames’ comment is even more concerning. I’ve vibrating back and forth between wild euphoria and massive paranoia it is very disconcerting. If he means Shiki and she gets hurt I will lose my whole ass mind. In a bad way.

Uzuki: I’m gonna go throw up.

^ I love this new fuck the rules Uzuki. Yaaas girl. Also, same.

“Neku must be seriously strong” bro you have no idea. He survived a pact with the Composer, wiped the floor with the Conductor very nearly BY HIMSELF.

*gasp* If we’re going to Cat Street with Neku does that mean we will FINALLY be going to Wildkat???? PLEASE.

Oh god I have 6 buttons now. Rip my hands.

-----------------------

1) Neku learned, at some point, to scan Soul directly. Which is awesome, terrifying, and helpful all at once.

2) Noise is pretending to be Ayano and I hate everything about this. Fuck. This is what ‘old flames’ means?? I didn’t know it was possible for me to hate Shiba more. I need to stop being surprised by that.

I’m going to enjoy ending him.

And if Neku is right, and there is someone behind him, they’re on the list too.

Okay Nagi recommending her favorite game to Shoka to make her feel better is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen. And Shoka called her sis. Help. I have the feels.

-----------------------

I love how much they’ve become an actual team. Like, they’re all doing their best to take care of each other. Nagi’s even stopped sniping at Fret. She’s very much holding them together right now, through these Noise copies. I’m looking forward to and dreading what will happen when we hit Kanon. I’m on Motoi now, so I assume she’s next.

-----------------------

Okay Nagi’s speech post fight has hit me hard. Damn girl. I knew I liked you, but wow.

I have concluded that you are, in fact, human. Allow me to elaborate. Humanity is the difference between making an effort to understand those around oneself, versus viewing them merely as resources to be consumed. Humanity is the difference between trying to understand opinions and values divergent from one’s own, versus scoffing and dismissing them as meritless. Humanity is the difference between being fraught with fear when facing others, versus being blithely unconcerned with others altogether. And now, having discerned your humanity, I can safely infer that in this moment… you are suffering a great deal of pain.

and yes I did copy that out. I think this is Neo’s version of the ‘the world ends with you’ speech that Mr H gives during week 2 in the first game. This is the thing the game is trying to say. Also copying it out is the only reason I didn’t start crying again.

Onward to Cat Street.

-----------------------

Beat is not happy to see Coco. This is very fair. (Her introduction thing is hilarious omg. The cut-ins with everyone’s faces XD)

Yes, PLEASE, EXPLAIN. Also, Beat, I think Neku gets to have a say in whether or not he’s mad about having been shot.

Coco do not call Beat a festering sack of garbage that is unacceptable. Everyone needs to chill.

Also, stuff is finally starting to make sense so that’s lovely.

Tsugumi probably REALLY needs help so that’s not lovely.

Neku you are maximum oblivious. How did you not notice Shoka’s hoodie. *turbo facepalm*

I’M SORRY HWAHT!? THE DOLL WHAT. HOW. THE FUCK. DID THAT HAPPEN. OKAY??? That’s actually…. kinda good news? We should be able to break Tsugumi loose then. Beat, tell Rhyme to call Shiki. She needs to haul ass.

We are now inside Tsugumi’s mind, inside Mr. Mew. This is wild.

She’s been stuck here, like this for like, three years now…? Fuck.

Oh jeez it’s a Plague Elephant. Why.

-----------------------

*throws hands up in the air* AN EXPLANATION!! (I woke up my cat.) The Plague Noise going back and forth erodes the barrier until it breaks, and then the two planes do, in fact, annihilate like matter and anti-matter. Well.

What the fuck is Dissonance. I love the music metaphors in this series but plz do me an elaborate. The work of a higher power… means Composers or Angels. Or something else we’ve never heard of before. So… Someone ‘higher up’ in Shinjuku set it in motion there, and is probably the one supplying Shiba with the Noise.

And if Shoka is right about him changing, maybe that someone changed him.

Week 3, Day 4

Safety cut, line breaks where the original posts ended.

Ugh, Kubo talks and I feel like a need three showers and to bleach my eardrums. Gross. Please never speak. Ever.

OH SHIT AM I GETTING SHO BACK? IS THAT WHY NAGI WAS ALL UWU ?

Holy shit Fret just. Throwing his backstory at me. Wasn’t ready for that. Okay.

Kariya might be missing which is somewhat concerning. Please just be off somewhere being alarmingly hypercompetent since you currently give a shit.

Lmao Nagi: “I had assumed they were close comrades experiencing a rough patch.” They’re kinda always like this, even when everything isn’t a disaster.

-----------------------

‘Let’s go toward Cat Street’ says Fret. GUESS WHO’S STANDING IN THE MIDDLE OF CAT STREET. Fret is a wizard.

Oh god NO. No nonono. We HAVE to fix him. We have to.

Oh noooo we’re in thought viewing mode not fight mode. No don’t do this to me. Kariya no what did you do why didn’t you wait for us!

Please wake up. Oh thank FUCK. I can’t take these heart attacks.

“Maybe that wouldn’t be much of a loss.” I see you. Gonna make her mad enough to slip into admitting she cares? Oh, these two.

-----------------------

Well that was unsettling. A bunch of Noise possessed people in the RG just coming for me.

There’s no way this is as simple as just clearing out Miyashita Park earlier.

-----------------------

OH.

NO.

WE. WE HAVE TO- PLEASE DON’T MAKE ME HURT KARIYA PLEASE. HOW DID KUBO GET HIM AGAIN?!?! NOOOnononono SHIT.

OH FUCK HE GOT UZUKI TO!!?!??!

PLEASE DON’T!!!

WAIT I THINK SHE KILLED IT TO PROTECT HIM I THOUGHT KUBO WAS GONNA MAKE HER KILL HIM FOR A SECOND THERE THIS IS VERY STRESSFUL HELP. DAY FOUR AND UDAGAWA STRIKE AGAIN AH.

Oh good she’s definitely officially on board with damage control in the RG.

Kariya just shook it off when she called his name oh my god my heart. I have died. HUGS. NOW. Also she absolutely deserves to punch him at least once for that heart attack. Fucking fuck.

Yaaaaaass tell sleezy to fuck himself.

We’ve officially joined forced fuck yeah.

God these two are just. I love them.

Three bears and a bunch of wolves in this tiny space was NOT COOL, game. I don’t know how I got to 300 to heal but I managed it and therefore didn’t die but it was close.

SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

HE BACK. HE JUST SHANKED SLEEZY FUCK YES. VERY NICE.

Lmao Beat’s face. I have been waiting for that. XD Honestly, I would also like to know what he’s doing here, although I had a few guesses, and then I read some of the one secret report.

Fret in this case Reminding Beat miiiight not have been the best move their history is a hot mess.

“How you understand all that math shit comin’ out of his mouth?” “We don’t! But he helped us out, so who cares?” I mean, Rindo was googling it. So you understood SOME of it.

(Speaking of Minamimoto’s nonsense, a friend who just started playing, who I had told about the Ruinbringers always asking for ‘one more round’, got to the part where he says ‘this game is -insert some number-’. It’s a CYCLIC NUMBER. Because the Shinjuku Reapers have the Game trapped in an endless cycle. He did tell us what was us, just in the least helpful way possible.)

Nagi: Something has changed while he was away. He’s serious now. And things might be about to get even worse if he’s shown back up.

Oh good. Nagi was mid-word and the music stopped. I do not want to press the button.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO it’s the remix of Minimimoto’s boss theme niiiiiice.

There are so many birds oh boy.

RINDO HAS BEEN MAKING THEM!?! (this remix kicks ass btw) Okay not making but summoning?

Uh. Minamimoto, you good? What are you doing?? Um, hello, is that Leo Cantus? I will be very annoyed if I have to fight Leo Cantus.

GREAT. FUCK SAKE SHO. *headdesk* IDIOT.

-----------------------

Okay Beat you had better be staying behind because you know something I don’t or I am going to kick you ass myself. If he wanted them to leave, he should just say that it’ll be easier for him to zoom himself out of there than the whole party. Would at least be somewhat reasonable.

OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD

I. I. HE. I. I’M CRYING. I’m sitting here after the full-motion cutscene, paused, hyperventilating and crying and Twister is playing in the background and I just…

I thought we had lost Beat. And then I thought maybe Minamimoto changed his mind. But no, it was so much better than that.

Neku.

We found him. Everything is still a mess and so many people are dead but we found him and I’m gonna start crying again.

I dropped my controller when the camera panned up and I realized for sure. It landed on the L2 button and paused on me.

It’s been literally 10 minutes jeez.

-----------------------

Everyone else being like ‘who’s this guy’ when I’ve just died of an emotional tsunami is kinda hilarious.

Sho, you are spectacularly unhelpful. Learn to actually work with people. You will get killed less. *sigh* I had hope that you would actually get somewhere but alas.

Oh good. Rindo got a vision of himself having a total breakdown. That’s promising.

I feel like I need a nap. I’ve been on a rollercoaster of emotions and I’ve given myself a headache with that complete flail-fest.
