Go To

Anyone watching Godzilla: Singular Point? I'm on episode 4 and really digging it. Gives me a very Steins;Gate feel which is not a bad thing and so far some fun redesigns.

Jet Jaguar as a Real Robot Mini-Mecha is surprisingly fun and has grown on me a lot.

Also Mei is the single most adorkable moeblob I've seen and yet goddammit it works on me.

I’ve watched it and enjoyed it. I felt like the third act could of used one more episode but I was fine with it and I’m hoping that it can get a season 2

I saw it. I have absolutely no idea what happened in it, but I saw it. I'm, uh, probably not smart enough for this show. Feels like you need a PHD in quantum physics to even understand half of the dialogue.

I’ve finished the entire thing and it is fantastic.

[up] The show has a lot of technobabble but it’s all based on existing quantum physics concepts. Fascinating stuff, and probably one of the best in-universe justifications for kaiju that I’ve seen.

[up] I haven't seen the series so what is the explanation for the existence of kaiju in this show?

fillerdude Since: Jul, 2010

That’s one of the driving questions of the series, but if you don’t mind being spoiled: the kaiju are manifestations of extradimensional creatures who can defy our world’s laws of physics because they are composed of four-dimensional molecules. Kind of a quasi-scientific way to describe eldritch monsters.

[up]Like putting an "3D-object in a 2D-world" kind of deal?

[up][up] That actually reminds me of Kaiju Revolution were the kaiju are ancient beings that have a radiation based metabolic system rather than a chemical one like ours which makes them so efficient on a cellular and subatomic level that they basically exist partially outside reality as we know it.

[up][up] Yes, essentially. This also lends them interesting properties such as being able to see the future, because they exist outside our concept of time.

[up] Interesting. The explanations for their strange physiology are similar.

Unfortunately you can’t be Just Here for Godzilla. But he’s gonna show up.

I really enjoyed this show, especially towards the end. The buildup was slow but very much worth it

Fair enough.

Watching Jet Jaguar fight all the things (well, two of them) has been fun however.

Apparently, this might be getting some kind of second season, or was that bullshit?

I mean, I'd love that. It was a fantastic show. I could 100% enjoy another XX episodes of theoretical physics lectures with the occasional kaiju distraction.

Same here. I would love to have a another season’s worth of technobabble.

I'm most of the way through the series. I think maybe one or two episodes left. Jet Jaguar Yung is now Jet Jaguar PP, and Mei is in some tunnel full of that red liquid with BB and his daughter.

Could still use a lot more Godzilla to be honest.

As I've mentioned before, I didn't like the show much. However, I know someone that just might.

I have a friend who I've been, for years, trying to find media for. They're particularly sensitive to harmful representation of women, LGBT people, and people with mental illness; they fit into those three categories, and take statements a show/movie makes about such people as personal attacks accordingly. Especially when those characters die. If you kill their character, the one they relate to, they take it as a statement that you want them to die. And since they're dead, they don't get to stick around and see how it ends.

Today they learned (and I learned from them) that part of the reason they have such a negative relationship with media is because their brain processes dopamine and seratonin in a much lower quantity to normal people's. When they see something that's like, "FUCK YEAH, ROCK OUT!", their brain goes, "Hey, that's neat."

And that's a problem because most media is, like, 90% "Hey, that's neat," and only 10% "FUCK YEAH, ROCK OUT!" So while most of us get a general feeling of the show/movie being pretty cool, they don't feel anything at all. Except at the high points and when the show/movie attacks them personally.

Talking about this, we realized that this is why their favorite media are things like The Good Place, Puella Magi Madoka Magica, or the video game Outer Wilds (not to be confused with The Outer Worlds). Because they often can't feel what media tries to make people feel, but they can engage with complex ideas that media asks people to think about. They favor thought-provoking media over emotionally powerful media.

So I was like, "You know what? I think I might have a show for you."

[up] Oh, I hope your friend is getting some medical help.

And yeah, Godzilla SP would be great for him/her.

[up][up] You’ll get nerd talk and you’ll like it.

[up][up] Has your friend seen Ghost in the Shell? That might work for them.

No. I won't! That's the damn problem!

I do enjoy the soundtrack though.

Especially these guys:

And done.

Godzilla couldn't hope to triumph against his eternal nemesis Jet Jaguar.

At least there's no Mecha Godzilla to threaten the ....OH SHIT!

But yeah. Second season when? You can't give us a cliffhanger like that. When you give us a stinger with Mecha Godzilla, you damn well give us a show with Mecha Godzilla.

We can only hope we get Mechagodzilla: SP.
