Why you gotta call us out like that?

H-Bomb 24

(in response to Montanas comparison of kids rather watching other kids play with toys than playing with toys themselves) I suppose thats not too different than us watching lets plays on YT.

Cyan_SkyAnfall

For as often as we see characters nude in this show, it’s really impressive that I never felt like any of our cast was being reduced to fan service. The nudity is very casual for the characters that are used to it, and the only time the raciness of it is acknowledged is when David is being caught off guard by it, and the focus is on him and how he’s adjusting to this culture shock, not the nudity itself. It’s just refreshing to see to be honest!

Kaiju no.8 would be a great watch, Another is a short psychological anime you'd really enjoy I think, The Promised Neverland as well! Bungo Stray Dogs is similar of sorts to mha and jjk as people can have special abilities but not everyone does

It was interesting to hear y’all answer my question, Montana is so practically minded! Personally, I do agree that BD’s would absolutely be destructive as shit to society in the form we see in Cyberpunk. If the technology itself existed and was extremely tightly regulated in use and content, I could see it being useful medically or therapeutically in a number of ways. It could be used to train people’s brains to use advanced prosthesis or, as Montana suggested, a more generalized learning aide. But as entertainment? It’s too much, there’s a significant portion of people whose brains would just break into little dopamine spirals and the real world would feel bleak and un-engaging in comparison. As Kenny said, that’s already happening just with fucking smartphones, which obviously pale in comparison to the potential destabilizing effects of sensory immersion entertainment.

Graham

You're absolutely right about that.

H-Bomb 24

So true, i like how to show feels like a game in that the world is really reacting to david instead of him reacting to the world. Like how in a game if you havent gotten a certain cyberware or skill you cant get certain outcomes or options, and so davids one decision to get the sandy opened an entirely new storyline for his life.

Indifferent Denji

And it adds to his character of being a young kid thrust into a huge world wed probabbly all act like that. Sorta how we all feel when we first start the game, eventually it just becomes as normal as anything else.

Indifferent Denji

Exactly. Sure, he kidnapped and psychologically tortured David, but he's not even the one who instigated the encounter. Also, now that I about it, JK probably took David JUST because he had the same cyberware as one of his former projects.

H-Bomb 24

I'm aware of that aspect of the world; I'm just surprised K & M seemed to adapt to it so easily.

H-Bomb 24

Who just finished?

H-Bomb 24

everytime I finish some1s reactions, some1 else starts watching it too 😭

Tigerclaw

“Yet”😭

Dragon24

I’m not readyyy😭

Dfd

Nudity is rarely an issue when its not egregious or disproportionate and its essential to the plot. This show is great at that

Letts React

well, that’s the kind of world this is. not like he was innocent, just didn’t harm these guys specifically

Chelly

Don’t know if anyone has mentioned this yet but the reason that Cyberpsycho’s BD is so crazy to David (and why that BD and others can seem so blackmarket) is because it’s not just a made up scenario but it’s a “death scroll” or actual death of that person recorded and turned into a brain dance

Ian Sebastian

Besides having a runner suit, people dress down nude for major netrunning tasks. So Kiwi and Lucy being naked isnt a big deal since its apart of their job.

Red UwU

Totally off topic but im curious. Are you guys planning more anime movie reactions this year? I really enjoyed the "Your name" react and would love to see more!

SPARKLE

Yep, one more reason why I love this show, as much as it hurts me...

Juan Solo

I think what helps is that the nudity, while blatant, is treated somewhat casually within the show (I chalk it up to different social norms within Cyberpunk's world). The nudity for the most part isn't sexualized, if that makes any sense. Sure, David reacts to it a bit, but he doesn't start acting perverted like characters in other anime.

Juan Solo

"Reaper's callin my name." "Just keep runnin."

H-Bomb 24

Oh snap, really?

H-Bomb 24

Me too... "This mess my fault?"

Juan Solo

Fun fact: all ten episode titles are references to songs, just like the story/side missions in the game. Basically, you could see it as each episode is a mission in-game.

Juan Solo

Yup. Next episode is just a taste . . .

H-Bomb 24

Gotta say: they've adapted to the blatant nudity in this show a lot better than I thought they would.

H-Bomb 24

He was rather cooperative, and look where that got him. That's rough, buddy. 😬

H-Bomb 24

I love and hate this show lol iykyk

Tigerclaw

Alright ik jimmy is a jerk and he shouldnt have done that to david but i mean they dd try to kidnap him first. Then they got the dude killed like wtf maybe were the bad guys

Indifferent Denji

A Promised neverland next?

Joshua Huppenthal

Whoo boy, can't wait for next episode . . .

H-Bomb 24

Not there yet, man 😅

H-Bomb 24

Anyone else kinda reminded of Scorpia from Netflix with Dorio?

H-Bomb 24

I wanna tell you that there's a character voiced by Matthew Mercer in this show! You've technically already seen him, but he's formally introduced in episode seven, so keep your ears peeled. 😁

H-Bomb 24

So the reason netrunners like Lucy and Kiwi get into ice baths is because deep-diving basically superheats your body, so the bath keeps them from overheating.

H-Bomb 24

Those BDs are worse than nightmares, bds are basically virtual reality with all your senses and thoughts but you’re forced to commit those actions even if you don’t want too whilst you’re in the bd(brain dance) like David shooting those cops Also music in this show, peak.

no u uwu

Part of the journey is the end

Dragon24

This is when the show rlly begins
