Just finished Despair Arc 7.
Holy damned mother of fuck.

Hope you like what Despair Arc 9 and 10 has.
MatsuriSakuragi:
I'm planning on bursting through the rest of Despair and most of Future tonight, so we shall see.

thoughts on 9:
holy shit while junko is absolutely utterly undeniably unforgivably despicable, i can't help but love how well she's written. all time favorite villain for sure.
thoughts on 10:
Spoiler: fuck fuck fuck fuck FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK ow my heart
chiaki forever favorite character my heart breaks
jesus fucking christ though this series does absolutely everything to torture her
it is agony to see
thoughts on despair FINAL:
Spoiler: did they just straight up declare that the world was driven to despair by memes they really just did didn't they
it's hard to really process what just happened because i'm still so fucked up from chiaki's painfully drawn out torture and execution
but i do like the sentiment that it's really her hope that saves the day at the end of SDR2
also wtf junko "after all, if the world were somehow saved from despair, wouldn't that be the most despairful thing of all?"
are you implying that you want to cause despair to pit it against hope because you know it'll win, thus saving the world from it, causing the epitome of all despair in yourself? even though you already destroyed the world?
you are so delightfully fucked up
commandercool:
Periodically I'm still doing the "Still traumatized by that episode?" check.
The answer is always yes.
Are you watching one arc at a time? Technically you're "supposed" to alternate episodes based on the way information is delivered, so Future Arc might be a bit less tense now. But you also have some backstory that might make some stuff more interesting, so it may be a wash.
MatsuriSakuragi:
I watched Despair arc in one shot, yeah. Didn't really feel like bouncing between scenarios. I'm sure if Future arc is as good as Despair arc was, it'll hold its own just as well.
