LMFAOOO the way y’all were so happy for him and everything went to shit😭

Bryan

Side note about the ED: The song has a music video that is a prequel to the series. It shows a backstory of the crew seen at the end of this ep. Also the artist is played multiple times in this series.

I really like the van gogh comparison!! I didn't think about that but can definitely see it. It's funny you mentioned an "over-saturdation" because the colors used and the art style is similar to that of a photo if you made it 100% saturated

Day

I love that Montana immediately said, "He's just built different" when the Arasaka people talked about his tolerance. Perfect foreshadowing.😈

Millie Long

From what I remember, aside from the anime and the title of the franchise. They don't really use the term "cyberpunk" all that much. People that are in Lucy's line of work are just referred to as "Runners" or various other variations like "netrunner" or "edgerunner". They probably just put it here for the sake of any newcomers to the setting.

JoeCrazy

Ngl its making me want to replay Cyberpunk for like the 6th time

Rinsaka

Song caused me to cry for like a solid year whenever I heard it

James S

i think it’s more super speed n reaction time rather than slowing down time itself

mal

If you would then call modern day phone calls a phone link, then sure! But it doesn't exactly link phones, so why would it link brains? It's described as a call in both the game and the anime, and is increasingly more like a phone call after you experience it in the game.

JoshyBoi1912

Is that not a brain-link? They aren’t talking or texting or anything that we can see, really. It’s not exactly telepathy but I’d describe that as a brain-to-brain communication

Tim Chaos

also, they were on a call before, but they have subdermal phones so they can communicate by thinking into the phone and not having to speak.

Fenixnade

The currency is Eurodollars (ED) - eddies for slang. Love that you two are watching this!

Fenixnade

Studio Trigger is amazing, one of their shows (Kill la Kill) is in my top 5 favorite anime, although a lot of their stuff has heavy fanservice, but their work is always top notch and memorable af

Eric C

The way I see it: when Kenny considered that super-speed and time-slow have the same net effect, he discovered General Relativity.

Valerie.Z

Yeah I know that 😂 it’s the same as hearing it this episode before… stuff happens

Chelly

It was at this point I became a Lucy hater.

Successor

“She seems cool, might just be her hair” Montana so real for that

Wil

Tell me about it. Though it was in the game first. All of the music was.

H-Bomb 24

I actually kinda appreciate it. It means they don't immediately hate her

H-Bomb 24

Considering it was only for about 1 minute at most I think it was more like Maine calling her to say they have arrived. Lucy probably contacted them when she was waiting for David outside the Ripperdocs.

Felius' Inferni

Interesting, most people I’ve seen understood pretty much immediately that Lucy sold David out. It wasn’t meant to be up to interpretation. We don’t know why exactly, but this is Night City after all. The stuff she shared about herself is a different story tho.

Chelly

These episodes are paced really weirdly the cliffhangers every week are gonna be brutal LOL. like ive seen this before but not since it came out

blitzø

Bro hit it and then was like, wait I can get this Sandy for free if I scam this idiot and don’t give him any meds.

Graham

It’s a quick shot, but you can see the wrapper has the same design from the Moon poster, “Your new life awaits.”

Graham

“I really wanna stay at your house” bringing back the memories 🫥

James S

hearing it in the game after watching is an experience too…

Chelly

Ohh, so Lucy's eyes glowing red during the BD was her telling Maine it was time to come in.

H-Bomb 24

In Cyberpunk's alternate history, several states separated from the US during its collapse in the late 90s/early 2000s, California among them (itself splitting into two in 2012). Night City became fully autonomous in 2070 after the Unification War between the Free States and NUSA.

Juan Solo

Free city or state meaning it's not part of a country.

Felius' Inferni

Also the glowing eyes yellow in show (blue in game) means they in one of the mental phone calls, while glowing red eyes means their hacking someone or something.

Felius' Inferni

Wdym by "free" city and state?

H-Bomb 24

Yes, they are on call. There is no link between their brains like you were saying. They just don't have phones, merely implants in their brains that allow them to do this without a physical device in their hand.

JoshyBoi1912

Both the show and game take place in Night City, a fictional free city in North California (which itself is a free state).

Juan Solo

Thank YOU for telling me how to change my thumbnail to a GIF. Imagine if yours and mine met. THAT is an anime crossover I would pay to see. 😅

H-Bomb 24

The implant speeds up the signals too and from his brain. It improves his reflexes and reaction time.

Chandman

They dont explain it in the anime. Think of the People in cyberpunk as computers, their brains are the cpu, ram, and memory. And the cybernetic parts connect to the brain either directly or from the nervous system. But the more powerful the cyberware or the more cyberware you have takes a toll on your mind and body. They need to take immuno suppressants to prevent their bodies from rejecting the parts. And over using the cyberware can strain the brain, if they don't give there brains time to recover it can lead to permanent brain damage. And Cyberpsychos are people with brain damage to an extent that its like dementia. Though not everyone with brain damage is violent. Think of it like people with mentally health problems. You can get cyberware that attach directly to your brain that artificially increase you brains max cpu, memory, and ram which also helps to reduce the strain on your brain do to cyberware. But if the brain implant cyberware get damaged or malfunction they are more likely to cause brain damage and cyberpsychosis.

Felius' Inferni

Welp guess I need to start paying my therapist again

Braden Jackson

Always here for my answers thank you xD

Katsuki BakuGOAT

The implant accelerates his thought process and Reflexes. Effectively giving him super speed. The slowmo effect is his perception of it because his brain is basically in overdrive. Unfortunately a normal brain can't handle operating at such speeds, hence the nose bleeds. If he overuses it and doesn't give his brain time to heal it can cause permanent brain damage (aka cyberpsychosis if the brain damage leads to hostile tendencys)

Felius' Inferni

Pretty sure we were meant to think that at first 🤣

H-Bomb 24

I thought that was a condom too and was like are they about to have VR sex😭😭

Butthead faxe

"Here, for folks like us? Wrong city, wrong people." Love this show can't wait to see ya experience it.

Brandon Tski

That song giving me ptsd

Rinsaka

David isnt slowing down time his perception is that he is. To everyone else time moves the same but david jumps forward. Its sorta displayed similar to old man zeinins technique from jjk.

Indifferent Denji

I agree. And the part about moving quickly, my view is with the Implant being on the spine, with his brain going quicker it's able to send messages to the body quicker too, making his movements faster, kind of like hysterical strength

yani

I see the idea that slowing time and super speed are similar enough however I'd definitely argue super speed implies an effect on the individual where as slow time implies he's effecting reality as a whole.. Nit picking either way.

Phantom Egg

They have no idea what they're in for . . .

H-Bomb 24

"I . . . I don't even know to respond to this."

H-Bomb 24

You're right. It is super speed.

H-Bomb 24

They are.

H-Bomb 24

I suppose, not sure I understand. Bummer, though.

H-Bomb 24

I’m the only one who reads them now :) streamlines the process and makes it faster haha. Before I would simply pick all 3 questions then give 1 to Montana to ask, just ended up making the process clunkier

Letts React

I thought that they were on call just like via Telepathically right

Katsuki BakuGOAT

That's amazing lmao

Katsuki BakuGOAT

We ain't making it out of the therapist office with this one boy's

Katsuki BakuGOAT

Of course it’s still super sci fi but I believe the in universe explanation of David’s implant is that it majorly speeding up his reaction time, basically over clocking his brain to run way faster than the world around him, giving the view of the world slowing down Of course this doesn’t account for the physics of moving that fast but yk But no wonder that thing can fry your brain after a few uses

Big Fuze

I heard a joke about the doctor hitting post nut clarity and changing his mind.🤣

Thomas Bailey

The song ;~;

no u uwu

I really hope the music in this series doesn't give you guys too much c*pyright trouble on YouTube. It's SO good! 🎵🎵

H-Bomb 24

Lucy shares the same VA as one of Tengen Uzui's wives from Demon Slayer. I'll let you figure out which one . . .

H-Bomb 24

Good morning! Question, Kenny: why are you the only one who reads the questions? I've been watching your older Legend of Korra reactions (so much fun, probably my favorite reaction 😁), and you split it pretty evenly then.
