Neo-Daten is a town, and I'm thinking of having 26 episodes per season from now on.

In an anime, I'll be the Tsundere Dark Magical Girl who likes purple MY own profile is actually HERE!

Most anime nowadays are only 12-13 episodes. However they usually used to follow a 24-26 episode format back in the days

And ok!

That's fair! There are a few other animes that still follow the 24-26 episode format, such as Re:Zero

I was thinking as a Shout-Out to Akira, that the most powerful Nightmares could do something similar to the Akira transformation scene near episode 23 as its signature move and the University must band together to stop its growth.

I actually forgot that it is technically Saturday in Neo-Daten! Yumeko is lucky

Here's an idea: What if we had Yumeko meet up with Izuru, Kosugi and the cat? Steph could join in as well!

Lol, what are Kosugi's definitions of "normal", exactly?

thats a good question lol. Uhh essentially, crazy ridiculous antics like the student council room being guarded my landmines or a tree having a soul with a talking koala in it aren't out of the usual for him, but serious shit like a student undergoing a slow painful corruption into a dragon or another student getting possessed and destroying the cafeteria are definitely cause for concern.

or, in layman's terms, he's a slice of life character in line with nichijou, being plopped right into a high stakes shonen anime

Ohhh, that actually makes sense!

This makes me think of what Yumeko defines as normal as well. I haven't pinpointed down his exact qualifications yet, but he tends to except his reality as is even if he is quite shocked about it.

For example, the skeleton thing. He doesn't really react to it because as he said in the first episode, he's seen weirder. When he does see something that feels weird to him, he usually accepts it as it is. If that makes sense. Not sure how to put this in layman's terms.

yeah. i figured it would make sense because the manic pixie dream girl character is one thats seen as weird or maybe even "crazy" sometimes, but always in a genre with little to no stakes. so he takes weird things in stride, but when it gets serious he's at a loss

and also i thought itd be a fun subversion of the trope! since the manic pixie dream girl is always the weird one, its pretty funny to see a character of that archetype be concerned with his school being "normal"

That would makes sense. A Manic Pixie Dream Girl is usually always there to life up the male character or something. These are things a normal Manic Pixie Dream Girl wouldn't be able to handle

If it's ok to ask- what do you think Yumeko's personality is like? Your response could help me pinpoint his personality down.

I'm trying out different things. An Occult Detective isn't an exact personality trait except for being a "hard-boiled detective" of a supernatural variety. Even then, that isn't much of a personality.

I am trying to give him character development on the way, though. So far, I think he's still a bit of a kid on the inside. He's eager to please, easy to impress and wants to make everyone have their "happy ending". He might be trying too hard, but I think his heart is in the right place.

to me he almost gives the vibe of like a straight man to everyone else's antics. hes one of the few normals of the cast and yet hes thrust right in the middle of it. especially with all of steph's npcs playing off of him, he feels like a good foil to their eclectic humor

I never thought of it like that, honestly! I appreciate your response :D

So you wouldn't peg Kosugi as the violent type, then?

Yeah, basically. I was going to switch to his POV on the moon (as a reference to asdfmovie) right at the end of the last episode, but Sabrina cut it off first, so I just decided to roll with it and have him be stuck in orbit for a while.

Edited by unfortunatezorua on Nov 16th 2019 at 7:07:09 PM

Well, that’d be jus’ a waste. Why would ya want to deprive the world of such anomaly as yourself?
