Ive been meaning to read this for a while, Whats it comparable too? Ive heard its similar to swan song and other fricked up shit.
Tsui no Sora
It's a bit like a more contemporary (or I suppose contemporary to its 2010 release, shit's dated now) Higurashi if you replaced the horrific violence with rape. A lot of rape. Quite frankly a distracting amount of rape.
There's really not that much rape. But the rape that's there is pretty rough. I normally enjoy rape but that chapter was hard to sit through.
>There's really not that much rape.
homie what
Off the top of my head there's:
Zakuro, Takuji, Kimika (ambiguous), Kagami, Megu & Satoko, the teacher, that one b***h who got fricked by a dog
And some of these b***hes get it more than once
I didn't see Takuji as rape since he could have judo chopped them any time. He was just being a sissy homosexual. Kagami was definitely not rape since she wasn't even real and she was just fricking with Takuji anyway.
Takuji couldn't have fought them at the time because Tomosane was still suppressed. I don't think his megabadass Tomosane persona even existed until after the trauma from that incident teased it out of him (Mamiya). The reason I included Kagami is because it's still a Rape scene but I guess you can slap an asterisk next to it.
>Kimika (ambiguous)
she said she was a virgin after that
>Megu & Satoko, the teacher, that one b***h who got fricked by a dog
all consensual
>she said
>believing women
Also I fail to see how any of that shit was consensual. Takuji just outright ordered the cult to use them as sex slaves/toilets. I don't remember the girl wanting to get plowed by a Rottweiler either.
i think it was during her ending, there was nothing implying she was lying. also the dudes never brought it up afterwards
probably a plothole tbh
Well I did specify that it's ambiguous.
I was thinking the same thing: Might just be a dropped plot thread that the writer forgot since it's given a lot of emphasis and then it never comes up again
if we're talking Kimika then im 99% she wasn't raped at any point in the game, most she had to do was the vibrator in the restaurant. did I forget something?
there's a part where she defends zakuro against the 3 rape-y dudes, and then zakuro escapes and never sees kimika again. the next time kimika appears is when she wants to kill takuji at the pool
>Whats it comparable too?
gay blojwobs
He asked what it's comparable to, not what it's about
>t. never sucked a wiener
I've been found out
Wish I had a ghost waifu. Might try that tulpa shit
Living the dream.
>reward for surviving events of subahibi is a wageslave office job
haha...
Japan
yeah he should have been homeless instead that would have been a happy ending
He should be in jail
He should finish what he started and return the world to the sky
At least it is not TnS like ending where you get amnesia, mindbreak and smug Ayana monologuing at the background.
Is TnS translated?
No. The original works in wonky Macromedia wrapper which is a can of worms on its own. I heard there was an attempt to translate the remake but they got bullied on Twitter for some reason.
You say that like it's a bad thing.
I really like Crash Twinsanity's skyboxes a lot.
Yes, I'm the Mahou Shoujo Riruru.
Saviour was right
>only options in life for Takuji and Zakuro are to get an autistic gf or die
theyre just like me fr fr
the lesbian zakuro ending is the canon ending to the game. she never died. frick all that schizo shit that came after
One day I will reread this and actually understand it.
live happily, that's all there is to understand
I'm not kidding
Yeah haha, so simple...
I am not convinced it's as simple as you make it out to be. I could explain further as to why I believe so, but lately when I try to articulate my thoughts, I immediately run into a mental wall and delete whatever my post is attempting to elucidate. It's all so tiresome. Instead, I will just state that I choose to believe certain works, like Subahibi, are deeper than people are willing to talk about on the surface, because it's more interesting that way. It gives me more to explore and consider and think about.
see
Its as "simple" as "live happily", but it's extremely deep if you actually sit to think about it.
It sounds like you are obsessed with looking for the hidden meanings in everything, even if there are none.
Will you buy blue curtains for your room because you are melancholic person or just because you like blue?
>like Subahibi, are deeper than people are willing to talk about on the surface
you're way overthinking it, subahibi story is intricate and complicated but it has only one purpose to entertain you the reader
but the final message of subahibi always has been "live happily" and it's always been that simple
>DUDE just be happy you got raped!
To be fair Takuji is one of those nerds who deserve to be bullied.
I was thinking Zakuro
>bad thing happens
Why be sad about it if you can live happily instead?
How can you just live happily after having violence inflicted upon you and your purity stolen?
Because happiness is the default state. If you don't want to be sad, just.. stop trying to be sad and live happily instead.
Animals can do it, why can't you?
Because Man is the Terminal Animal.
the frick's that supposed to mean
I'm not entirely sure myself, but it has something to do with our ability to foresee and agonize over our own certain deaths; this self-reflexive tendency (amongst other reasons) is why we can't just be happy lounging around doing nothing like dogs. Time is always running out, the horizon is receding, we can never have our eternal present. Look I just picked the term up from a book I recently read let it marinate okay
>it has something to do with our ability to foresee and agonize over our own certain deaths
Yeah, but that's why "live happily!". Rather than agonizing over the future and thinking of death, we are capable of choosing to just live happily.
See https://youtu.be/6xo6bOWOTJ0
>Look I just picked the term up from a book I recently read let it marinate okay
The term's familiar to me but google for some reason returns nothing on it.
>But how many people in general do you anons reckon are really happy?
Anyone who wasn't happy would probably have killed himself. Sure some don't because it's hard to, but look at the countries where euthanasia's legal.
Though it depends on what would you consider "really happy" - you could argue no one is, because once we are happy we get bored and contemplate dumb shit/the future thus making ourselves sad. But that also means everyone is happy - life's fun even if it sucks ass.
>Rather than agonizing over the future and thinking of death
I just can't help it. None of us can.
>The term's familiar to me but google for some reason returns nothing on it.
The place I heard it from most recently was 'The Thirst for Annihilation' by Nick Land but for sure the term must've been used long before him.
>I just can't help it. None of us can.
That's because no one actually tries, it's rather easy if you do.
the hardest part is the realization that "just be happy" is really all there is to it, it sounds like moronic advice so people tend to disregard it, but once you know you're happy by default and are just finding faults in the whole thing, it's pretty hard and silly to be sad and agonize over what might be.
>you're happy by default
Seems to me like it's very much the opposite. We're always empty, everything rests upon us being empty, empty enough to want to chase something, and the moment we find it we find a new cavity and the wheel spins again. The default state of humanity isn't happiness, maybe it was when we were borderline sub-sapient infants or when we were suspended belly-up in our mom's amniotic fluid but it isn't anymore and it hasn't been for a long time. From what I've seen the default state of humanity is scratching an itch, forever. Plugging holes in a leaky barrel, forever.
They say another way is that you're supposed to find happiness in the struggle but I haven't manages it yet. Maybe I'm just not man enough.
>We're always empty, everything rests upon us being empty, empty enough to want to chase something, and the moment we find it we find a new cavity and the wheel spins again
That's boredom. But even if you've nothing, you're still happy, just bored. Might be harder to spot because it's not the kinda happiness where you'd laugh and smile, it's just being generally content/okay/happy with the state of things even if you grumble and moan about no new vidya.
>claiming subahibi is schizo ramblings
You genuinely didn't understand it if that's what you think.
I agree there's alot of garbage that people claim is deep when it's actually not but that's not the case here. You're also obviously free to think Subahibi is shit but claiming it's just ramblings is extremely dishonest.
>but the fans are in love with the initial concept and can't separate the author and the story from the concept that the author just ripped off something else
what's the problem with "ripping off" a concept? Everyone is ripping off each other and adding their own spins to it. Utterly moronic.
>You genuinely didn't understand it if that's what you think
you're exactly the type of person I complained about in the previous post
>what's the problem with "ripping off" a concept?
there's absolutely none, but if the author is doing this then I'm going to judge what the author decides to add from themselves instead of the concept the author decided to base their story on
in case of Subahibi the author didn't add anything of value, if you take away the philosophy then you end up with an incoherent mess of a story and random scenes that are there purely for the shock value or because the author had a particular fetish
it is entirely possible to base a story on Wittgenstein's works and making it an enjoyable read and Subahibi is not that story
>in case of Subahibi the author didn't add anything of value, if you take away the philosophy then you end up with an incoherent mess of a story and random scenes that are there purely for the shock value or because the author had a particular fetish
that's not true
>it is entirely possible to base a story on Wittgenstein's works and making it an enjoyable read and Subahibi is not that story
the point is that subahibi wasn't supposed to be an enjoyable read (for the most part).
>the point of this VN was that it was supposed to be shit
>gets defensive when people call it shit
it's a pile of garbage that uses philosophy to masquerade as something deep and it's as plain as a day to anyone who doesn't have weeb brain rot
I get that you liked and you have full right to do so it but I'm not gonna continue this discussion if all you have is attempting to gaslight me into thinking I did not understand what I've read
>if it's not a mindless theme park ride then it's shit
ok
>you're exactly the type of person I complained about in the previous post
I don't know what else to tell you bubby, if all you can say about it is that it's "ramblings" then you didn't understand it. It's fine to think something is shallow and basic as frick, but in this case you don't seem to have the slightest grasp on what you've actually read, so you're resorting to calling it nonsense to maintain the idea that you're smart.
>if you take away the philosophy then you end up with an incoherent mess of a story
well yes if you take away the core of a story it becomes an incoherent mess, that's rather obvious, no? What else would you expect to happen?
Also not entirely true in this case as subahibi has a coherent supernatural plot that doesn't require all the philosophy.
>in case of Subahibi the author didn't add anything of value
Yeah im sure he just copied what wittgenstein wrote and it turned itself into a visual novel. Might also wanna google the term "denpa", moron.
oh also I'm not the other anon. I think it's plenty possible to be happy even after you've been raped, apparently it happens all the time. But how many people in general do you anons reckon are really happy?
What was the meaning of that roller coaster ride? It's the one single thing I still don't get
It was kino, that's all that matters
Stalker might be the game with the best weather system in general.
I'll never forget fighting some patrol in the middle of a stormy night, holed up in some crater next to a tree and a shitty shack. Waiting on the thunder to lit up the area to pick off another one and see them inching closer and closer was pure kino.
yep its kino

Ignoring the anime homosexualry to post a actual topic reply: Halo Reach
I was waiting for someone to post Reach. That game might have the best skyboxes ever.
Anime website, mutt.
Heide's Tower or Flame from DS2 had the best looking sky.
>looks like sunset when you look to the horizon
>can see entire galaxies when you look up above
Absolutely gorgeous
Another one I was waiting for. Dark Souls 1 Undead Burg and Dark Souls 3 Dreg heap are other great skyboxes from the souls trilogy. I especially love skyboxes where you're visibly 'above the atmosphere' and you can just see a sea of clouds sprawled out beneath you. Any other vidya skyboxes like this?
>write a VN that is pure nonsesne
>shoehorn in some philosophy to make it seem like it's not just schizo ramblings
>weebs think it's the deepest shit ever
the message about living happily is lost when you realize you can never unread this garbage
Says the man wasting his "precious" time on Ganker of all places.
when I go to Ganker I do so willingly and I know what to expect
when I've read Subahibi I was promised the second coming of Jesus Christ and I've got something that was an utterly worthless read
there's a lot of media which just piggybacks off something actually insightful, does a shit job at it but the fans are in love with the initial concept and can't separate the author and the story from the concept that the author just ripped off something else
it's annoying because in their minds you either adore the author's creation or you do not understand it, there's no middle ground in where you understand the themes and motives yet still think the overall work of the author was garbage
I've noticed this a lot.
When a piece of Western media veils its shallowness behind a whole lotta namedropping people rightfully write it off as pretentious and move on.
But the Japs just get away with it. More than that, it's often rewarded. Why?
Convince me to read Subahibi.
Rape is not enough to make me read me a VN, tell me there are cool shit happening.
there's incest (blood-related)
>there's incest (blood-related)
I see, well that settles it. I will avoid it.
Still gonna post a sky pic
i guess gay blowjobs are more suitable for you, subahibi has those too
>gay blowjobs
I didn't ask what you are into
If you liked This Chair, you'll like Subahibi.
The best scene was taping a pencil to the wiener to make it stand upright.
>lurked in a couple of subahibi threads before reading it
>some anon said there was sex with the neck of a headless corpse
>there was none
DISAPPOINTED!
Shinkai's clouds are the best.
where is this from?
Ef
Agreed. It's probably half the reason why people even know his name.
at least post the best sky of the game
空へ!
but who was camera?
the phone
