an underrated part of the "no one stops" fight is how nier literally can't grasp just how much popola fucking hates him and how much worse he's making it every time he tries to talk her down

On the list of things I haven't gotten over from Replicant ver.1.22...
The writing on Kainé's magic circle reads "I will never forget your kindness" when translated.
In Ending E, the barrier that blocks Kainé's access to the deeper part of Sleeping Beauty in the Forest of Myth is identical to that magic circle.
Presumably the words were originally for Kainé's grandmother since it's visible from the moment you first meet Kainé, but having it be the barrier that is preventing her from accessing her memories of the second person in her life to ever show her genuine kindness is such a neat detail to me.

Devola: You know, Popola, I understand now why we're twins... It's because... Because we were born without souls.
Popola: *gasp* Devola, I can't stop the bleeding! Oh God! I can't stop it!
Devola: This world is too... agh... too lonely for one without a soul. There's too much... emptiness... Our souls are missing... And yet somehow our tears still work. It's kinda weird. Sorry, Sis. I love you...

Nier Replicant spoilers ahead, I feel like a fundamental problem people sometimes have with interpreting Nier Replicant is that it is somewhat easy to come away from it with the impression that Project Gestalt is some grandiose master stroke 'worst case scenario' plan put into place as a heroic last ditch effort by a desperate people, rather than what it actually is which is the slap dashed, moon-logic bullshit haphazardly cobbled together in the last few minutes of humanity's existence and held in place by nothing but strings, good wishes and some very dedicated android women.

the way nier and kaine deal with losing emil is honestly everything to me… absolutely no words spoken nier just breaks down crying and then kaine beats the shit out of him because she doesn’t know how else to deal with her emotions. and nier doesn’t even fight back or get mad at her he’s just like yeah i get it. and then she’s like let’s go and then they move on. incredible

2000s japanese fantasy narratives about orphaned brothers who would do anything for their younger siblings, weighing up deeply morally ambiguous choices against enemies who unsettle and disturb our understanding of what real humanity is, strongly influenced by contemporary events in the middle east, featuring sweet gentle young boys trapped in unfamiliar forms alienated from their own bodies. with endings that involve said older sibling sacrificing themselves and disappearing from this world to save someone else

I love it when the protags get slapped across the face with the fact that they're committing horrific acts upon the undeserving and gotta take a step back to gauge whether or not their goals and their means are actually worth it or not.
