A fandom thread for a show that doesn't exist.

Ooh, interesting. I wonder how her girlfriend will react to that piece of news?

Judging by her previous characterisation, probably not very rationally.

That's right! All we really know about Dolly is the stuff her girlfriend has said about her. We know that Dolly's a wild child controlled by her werewolf urges... but Dolly's girlfriend isn't exactly the most stable chemical in the petri dish, so I'll take that with a grain of salt.

girl deserves so much better

I've just caught up with the show, and have really enjoyed it, I have to say. I do have one question, what happened to Polly? She was a major character, the secret daughter of Dolly, and the chosen one who was destined to save the universe. Then, in the season 4 final, she got in a car with Bob and Miranda... and when the car reaches the end of it's journey in the season 5 premier (a journey that explicitly had no stops) she's completely gone. She's never mentioned again, nobody notices she's missing, Dolly says she never had a daughter. Did they really just retcon such a central character? Or is there something fishy in-universe going on?

According to some Background info, Polly... Got euthanized, basically, She was secretly disabled, which she hid. And it got soo bad to the point she either has to life with it and Suffer more, or get a Euthanasia and Die peacefully. thats what happened to her

...Jesus Christ.

I can see why they'd leave that to be an off screen detail, that shit's dark, even for this series' standards.

Although Polly's whole "chosen one" deal isn't nearly as important as you'd believe it to be. With how often the Archon's Convents declare complete randos to be "chosen by Archon" to do such and such, the title of Chosen One doesn't really have any power.

I never liked the whole “Poppy being the Chosen One” thing anyway. It was too cliche and it kind of stole the spotlight from the whole Pittsburgh arc.

Whilethough i am Glad that they Chose Ken Watanabe for Kaon's role, there is something that has been bugging me:

In the recent episode, Kaon says that he used to date "Crosshairs" (judging from Mii's expression, its clear that Dude is Her brother), But its unclear where he went, it could be a shout out to a Movie but i dont think they use shout outs that much, Is there a Implication that this "Crosshairs" Will appear later in the show?

Oh yeah, the Pittsburgh Arc. That was... one hell of a way to follow up Venomia.

I didn't really vibe with that arc. People say that Pittsburgh was a refresher tone-wise, but going straight from the tense, high-stakes Venomia arc to something much Lighter and Softer felt kinda disingenuous to me. They could've done something with Pittsburgh and the lore they were trying to set up with it (all the stuff with Archon’s Covenants was pretty interesting) but it was simply too short to get anything done. Not to mention that it ended with Debra splitting everyone up on the turnpike, killing off half of the characters introduced in that arc. No one on the writing team knew what they wanted to do with Pittsburgh, and it shows.

Uhhhh anyways i just found out that Mii VA is a obscure Girl named "Ema Ukizawa". Who fluently speaks english. i wonder how Ema acts Out of her role..

It's possible that's just a pseudonym. A lot of actors on this show use one.

As the saying goes, "We don't talk about Pittsburgh".

Eh, I liked Pittsburgh. IMO, it brought plenty of characterization to Juan Carlos, who was just there in previous seasons, and it did set up future arcs effectively.

Pittsburgh was one of those moments where I was genuinely gobsmacked that other fans disliked it. I see some of the flaws (even if I disagree), but to me it was a great palate cleanser after Venomia and had some A* character development.

While I can agree that the character development in the Pittsburgh Arc is timeless (Ramona regaining autonomy after Ramirez's years of emotional abuse and the relationship moments between Hubert and Ferdinand being notable standouts), ten episodes was nowhere near enough time to flesh out all of the details it tried to establish. It felt rushed, like they tried to squeeze at least a good 24 episode season's worth of content into the tail end of season four.

Who wants to bet that the Archon’s Chosen were gonna be the focus of Season five before they came up with Archon’s Gate?

Some of the later arcs did build on Pittsburgh well, but there was still a lot of character beats that happened during the Pittsburgh arc that didn't make sense. There's also the fact that they'd already gone through most of their budget for the season, so a lot of the animation is pretty bad. Especially the marathon.

Oh yeah they looked like PS 2 cutscenes lol. The animation was the weakest link imo, it just ruined every moment it was used.

Back at Belgium. Where i am from, there has been a Meme popping out of this one line both Kaon and Mii says.

"i banged her Brother"

"he banged my brother"

Generally used to state "they broke my Stuff" "I broke their stuff" or something else.

Too bad Het Vlaamse belang is using that meme to send propaganda...

Thursday's new episode: "The Curious Incident of the Dog at the Gate."

In which Candie finds a cute alien puppy sitting outside of Archon's Gate and decides to take it under her wing as a pet. Mattias is wary of the dog, but the Fresh Meat Gang assures him that everything is fine. And then the dog starts growing. And growing. And growing...

Meanwhile, Lobo decides to defect from Venomia and register as a part of the Quarters' ranks. He catches wind of Candie's new pet and informs her that it's a species of Venomian animal called a Druk'kah, and that it's perfectly normal for them to grow to be ten feet tall.

The Druk'kah still counts as an extraterrestrial, though, which brings BSS to the Land of the Quarters to try and contain the thing. The massive alien dog easily curbstomps Vike and Kaon while Dolly discusses whether or not it's a good idea to let Lobo know about her involvement with BSS with Mii.

I have founded This from a leaker...

There are three possibilitiez: A re-design of Klara (a IDW Exclusive Character), the aforementioned "Crosshairs" (the chest could be Gynocomastasia) or a whole new character

what is hour theory about it?

I'm still trying to figure out why Thursday's episode is out on Wednesday.

possibly a Show thru

Seems like a scheduling mix-up. (read: I completely forgot today was Wednesday FUCK)

from the same leaker, i also noticed these lines...

"whatever i need to do to protect The Kitagawa Legacy"

"Pfah. Mankind will just rot up."

And this... One.

"Oh, you look wonderful, Isamu, or should i say, Crosshairs?!"

Isamu, back? How can that be? We all saw what happened to him back in Season 3.

Yeah, he got fucking disemboweled. Not on screen, obviously, but we heard his screams; that shit hurted

Unless they pulled, like, a similar kinda deal to when the Quarters turned Cann into the Knight: taking Isamu's mangled corpse and putting it into a robotic body/suit of armor.
