who else? Talia?
>>
Did anyone else see Capri as a villain basically all the way up to the end? When she told Talia, "it's time for you to go," I took it as revealing her true colors, and everything she'd done to help was just preparation and manipulation. Kinda gave me whiplash the way the last episode handled her.

Based Nigga. Who would have thought Trigger x Cyberpunk would make such a great combo
>>
>>291970705
I'm pretty sure she was intended to come across as a chaotic and selfish entity. Just another failed attempt by the corps to create an AI weapon. She was created through the death and torture of dozens of people, if not hundreds, and she's fully aware of it so it makes sense that she's generally indifferent to the lives of humans.
>>
>>291970705
>Did anyone else see Capri as a villain basically all the way up to the end?
this is complicated by her telling Talia to leave Roman out of it for his own good
though perhaps that was also calculated and selfish, since Roman might be the only one who could persuade her to not do it
>>
>>291970897
It's odd how good of a speaker pondsmith is
Watching the trigger youtube videos make it seem like producing anime is a lot of work. Like cdpr is relying on some sweaty guys living off conbini sushi in small confised cluttered spaces to draw thousands of pictures to make a thing people enjoy.

Anime was made in the 60's and the timeline only starts diverging in late 80's, so it absolutely exists in-universe... but whether it survived the corpo-wars and shit is dubious. If anything IMO the cyberpunk turbo-nationalist technocrat Japs may simply have decided the rest of the world is unworthy of even seeing it, or made it so expensive to export, that it's practically non-existent outside its borders.

Shotafags went all in on Roman looking at Xhitter fanart.
>>
>>291972771
He was born a full psychopath, so his empathy was already at rock bottom from the get-go. That said, he still goes "cyberpsycho" but it's indistinguishable to him personally, when he's acting out of control and when not, since to him that was always his default state.
Arasaka doesn't give him jobs where they're concerned about collateral damage, so it doesn't matter to them if he starts acting out.
Outside of "work" he's a complete degenerate party animal and has his "needs" sated the entire time from all the money and power Arasaka affords him.
You'll find him in some penthouse or similar place in either a private concert or an orgy (or both) and it's only a matter of coincidence whether someone looks at Smasher "funny" and he decides to make the party a sudden splatter-fest.
Other than Smasher, there's also different kinds of full-borgs, the most common (the actual military ones) are simply constantly drugged and/or hypno-conditioned to be in a stable state, which can be "turned on" into full psycho mode if needed by their operators or handlers.

Depending on the situation, either NightCorp, Night City's governing institution, or whatever megacorp you worked under. The latter usually applies to execs since they hardly ever own anything independently despite seeming to be loaded.

Yeah, there's VERY few (corporate) contracts that don't have some hidden clause about your (corporate earned) assets being forfeit to your (former) employer if you die, or being used to reimburse "loss of potential work time" etc.
It's a dystopian world for a reason.
Unless you manage to "serve" a long enough term (20 years for Arasaka, though we don't know if it's universal or just certain positions), which makes your contract's obligations fully annuled, you're unlikely to "escape" a corporation being able to fuck you on their terms.

One thing is practical while another is not. You're gay man for liking useless decorative things, you're gay woman for liking practical stuff. When men do things like cooking nobody calling them gay.
So as Omi's hobby is probably cars, she's tomboy and gay.

Some sort of neurodegenerative disease, all motor nerves in her body slowly dying, staring with the longest ones in her limbs, and consequently her muscles starting to atrophy from lack of activity, roughly the same thing Stephen Hawking had (in other words if Capri has stopped its spread into the brain Talia still has a slim chance of living into old age)

At the end of episode 10 the Doctor says she made a temporary recovery but its progressing again. Capri can stop it and even restore functionality but it seems like she needs to be actively doing so. Once she was removed it started progressing again.

The corps rolled in, once the mega-corps show up local law enforcement stands down. the NCPD isnt like police we have now, they are a corp in themselves subsidized by NightCorp.

Way more than that, each is like their own LockheedMardin or Northrupp Grumman while also being a Samsung, Cisco, and Microsoft at the same time. Why do governments allow this? Most of them are nationalized and also represent the interests of the world super powers.
>Why were they all moralfagging instead of letting Talia kill her father?
Most of them wanted to kill Kiril themselves, didn't give a shit about him, or just wanted Capri.

Unless the Japanese version words it more explicitly it's not outright stated if by "recovery was temporary" they just meant her freely controlling her chrome again like she did while she had Capri (demonstrably true, it's clearly gone now) or the disease attacking her brain again (a valid interpretation, there's a reason for Talia to remind Weak she's not dead just yet)
To top that off the doctors had stated that her brain was unaffected by the disease prior to Talia getting the chip inserted into her, so it's unclear if Capri made things worse or the doctors are confusing the effect of the chip on the brain for the disease advancing

true it could be related to a cyberpsychosis diagnosis and not the disease. The next line from the doctor is about scaling back the chrome. I dont think the amount of cyberware would have a positive or negative effect on the progression of the disease.

>>291977358
ALS and the other thing do not kill the brain, the worst thing is total immobilization. Cranial nerves and eye movement still work sometimes. It's just with our tech level, living on a ventilator is shit, and there are a lot of complications. In their universe, breathing should be no problem, maybe they can bypass motor pathways somehow or make a less directly controlled movement system for her.

sure none of the big 5 with towers in corpo plaza, aside from Arasaka, have red. Militech, Kang Tao, PetroChem, and BioTechnica dont roll with red. but there are others. Zetatech, QianT, ITS, NightCorp could all roll with red. Well maybe not NightCorp, and they should remain the spooky corp we dont know a lot about.

Hey man maybe you cant judge someone's personality over the worst 2 days of their life in which her terminal daughter is about to die.. We didn't really see real Avida at all in the show.

He did take control of the company in the 1970s i think? He had it grow a fuckton. in the 2010s-ish i think, he retired from being president and passed power to his first son, Kei. Then fuckery happened with the 4th corporate war and Kei was convinced to commit sudoku because he fucked up and lost.
Just before that Yorinobu learned about his dads plans and was actively trying to fuck them over. During this time he worked with the Japanese government to nationalize the company which did some fuckery and cut off Saburo from Kei and the NC branch.
Kei died, Saburo resumed control of the nationalized company and essentially because the emperor of Japan as well as the CEO of Arasaka again. This is also stuff from the original books written in the 80s so i dont know how canon it is anymore.

Well no but it still would’ve been nice to see more of it, since she’s absolutely integral to the story and there’s just very little to like.

The Silverhand engram shard in the game heals the brain tissue from V's bullet to the head, the problem was it was loaded with a singular personality for the express purpose of body replacement, specifically for Saburo Arasaka's engram. Capri is a different animal all together, both being a composite engram of significantly higher processing power, and probably being stored on a different prototype of the biochip technology.
She could very well be fine, the doctors in this setting are clearly just going by precedent and established cases. They have no actual insight into her case, they're corporate doctors and they don't give a shit beyond using her as data in future cases.
I think Capri's whole bug-mode transformation was a metaphor for Talia emerging as a "butterfly," where her remaining nervous system and brain tissue have been repaired.

Considering she's implied to have copied D's engram into herself before jumping to orbit, I don't think it's out of the realm of posibility that part of her machine form was a soul-killer aparatus that zapped Talia into engram form and just re-imprinted her into her own body, then let the biochip fix the nerve damage and "over-write" Talia with herself. Still a conceptual death, depending on your existential/theological opinion on the engram process, but it's Talia's mind and memories in Talia's body at the end of the day.

Corpo scum doesn't care. He even made a point that Thalia was his daughter, but chose to kill her anyway. Showing how little he cares. She had little time left, but he could have spent that little time with her, but instead he decided to kill her to get full powered Capri running.

Finished watching season 2.
Capri was great (because I wanna fuck her cyber brains out). Other plots weren't.
Seems like season 1 had more freedom when it came to telling a story. It focused on the more societal aspects of cyberpunk and had more relatable topics with characters, the perks of having a single main character I guess.
S2 felt all over the place and reached too high trying to tell a story with 4 lead POV characters with only 10 episodes.
S2 was just meh. Didnt care about any one character arc really.

Same boat.
It's still better than most shit though today. It's just... S1 was such a surprise. Came out of nowhere and I had completely lost faith in Trigger and didn't care about Cyberpunk.

>Talia with a terminal illness, domestic oppression, chrome obsession and wish to be free

>roman and his camera obession and worrying about D and romance with Talia
Not even mentioning subplots like Kyoko and Avida (fuck her).
Pick one dude, not all of them.
>>
>>291983742
Honestly?
Tupi should have been the real focus. She was so much better than the main cast.
The main cast didn't seem real enough. They just felt a bit too unusual in the context. Talia almost was ok but then they kinda made her this sort (and this is sorta weird to say) of Clannad Nagisa character instead of a sick ass Cyberpunk sicko that has next to no regard of other people.
Weak was just... bizarre. He felt like he should have been way more streetwise, but they clearly nerfed his character for timing reasons. Bit disappointing.

D was a trainwreck in all ways.
Granny was kinda intriguing, but then they had this weird redemption arc.
The Tao dude was beyond retarded and realistic.
Roman simply just is there and not properly used. He just feels like shotabait kek.

Now normally I am impartial to the ol' fan service, but I felt S1 was doing a bit more on top. S2 felt like it was trying but it kinda just didn't click and felt odd.
Tupi's arc was the only part that I felt invested in even. She was really interesting. Betrayed and wanted revenge. Was street savvy and kinda saw D as a tool rather than a proper peer. Felt more realistic.

Like compare Kiwi or Lucy, they're just a different beast to most of the cast of S2. Tupi felt like an idiot I will say, but understandable and sympathize-able given her horrendous context. She's a rich bitch, but what's the point if you lose everything you value, including family. She's seen her daddy turn into a nightmare.

Where is that character development with the other characters? Talia got a little bit, D too, but not enough.
It's not what was said either, but rather what was not.
>>
This ending song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W-IO0hpiIcI
very cheerful compared to s1
>>
What if Talia's pussy also opens up like that?
>>
>>291983783
Not impossible, just kinda rough.
Maybe they lacked budget or time (somehow) though kek.
S1 was kinda a masterpiece I just didn't expect.
>>
>>291984115
s1 was great. It had some pacing problems but the action scenes and the character designs were and still are top notch. I think it gets a lot of extra glazing because nobody expected it to exist, and then hearing it was based on the 2077 game that immediately associated it with the games godawful release.
But then it turned out to be excellent. Restored the 2077 name and apparently Triggers reputation too. I didnt know Trigger had ever really been seen poorly, I only knew them from TTGL honestly.

Why season 1 works
>david is relatable, we see his poverty, his overworked mother, how lonely he is after she dies

I think David was the weakest part of S1 initially, the rest of the cast were much better.
David did get better though, but his introduction and background was kinda... meh.

He needed a rougher background, not a school background. He felt initially like a stereotypical anime teen in fucking mad max which ... kinda was interesting in it's own way but probably not as intentional in retrospect.
Lucy is just a hurricane that completely fucks up his shit but by the end the shoe was clearly on the other foot and that felt interesting. Especially because you realised why that was. You see everyone that Lucy loved other than David just vanish and we learn about her background before them.

No idea and I'm fucking ok with that. If we knew it would ruin her character I feel.

Doing that with main characters is a bet less forgivable.

Anon, in case you missed the obvious - Talia turning herself into an insect-like creature is directly related to the flashback of her looking at a dead grasshopper.

She is literally preparing herself to die. It's not a symbol of strength, but of pure despair.
>>
>>291984067
Yupi? She's a random girl that was shoehorned as D's crazy lunatic fan and died very fast after her appearance. She's just femD so simps are interested in her but she hasn't been developped enough to be interesting.

She didn't want to live, that's the point. She was even more consumed by loss and revenge than even David. Notice that she wasn't even living a corpo lifestyle prior to taking him in - no wild parties, sex, drugs etc. Just an empty apartment and standing vigil in front of a grave.

I made a longer post around the time the show first aired. Someone copy-pasted it into TV Tropes, of all places:

>Talia has another Animal Motif aside from cats; insects. One of the most pivotal scenes for her character is the one where she witnesses a grasshopper being carried off by ants. It depicts how Talia has seen herself since a child - as a dead bug, something ugly, useless, dying and decaying. She internalized it so much she started fashioning her cyberware to look like one, mandibles included. And it's not something done over a long period of time. When Avida and King first meet, she says Talia has been hanging out with Maelstrom over the last several weeks. Later on she confirms, in a conversation with Kiril, that the faceplate is a recent addition. Talia is literally transforming into something she associates with death and decay in preparation for her own. This is why seeing Roman's footage broke through to her so much - because he took something she associated with everything she hated and made it look beautiful and "perfect."

The doctor tells David his mother's condition is stable, then when he comes back the next day he says she died and handled him "her ashes."

It's not rocket science. Mostly organic humans are prized for their organs, and his mom was a nobody.

>>291984842
The ambulance scene seems to hint she might've been a straight-up scav. Would be fitting, since that whole plot element is heavily based on something that actually happened in Poland (skin hunters).

NTA but yes some gangs are corpo proxies. Notable two are Tygers-Arasaka and 6th Street-Militech. I dont think theres any corpos that have super close ties like that to Maelstrom.
Moxes and Valentinos seem to operate independently and will take corpo jobs if they pay enough.
Scavs and Raffen are actual outlaws, and the VDB are explicitly isolationists. And then theres all the other small gangs that come and go. Id lump them in with Moxes and Valentinos.

EU organs are definitely going to be higher quality for sure, but the Bodybank exists, and has since 2045. Though in this case its a cloned version of your own, so if you have a genetic defect you'll still need a transplant of a different one.

yeah they seem to use them to do their dirty work and no one really suspects it because of how outlandish it'd be
in the mission where you investigate the MK ultra brainwashing room in the mayoral candidate's apartment, you can find a note on one of the maelstrom guys saying they were paid to destroy the van once it arrived at that location
also in the gary the prophet questline, the agents that show up to meet the malestrom cultists are night corp employees, and they recite some cryptic latin poetry shit that shares lines with what the one cultist says during the cyberpsycho encounter where the maelstrom woman gets possessed by what is presumably a rogue AI

Speed Watcher-kun #96850685906, please watch slower and actually pay attention. Talia's emotions explicitly take over Capri and she stops being in control, instead being a "slave" forced to act upon Talia's rage and hatred.
When D confronts her at the "junkyard" it's clear Talia is in control, because she doesn't even recognize him, and neither does Capri, until the moment he literally hacks Talia, before he steals and slots the chip back into himself.

Cause he's a retard. He was doing the more "sensible" thing of poking Arasaka to get info, once he learned that all the people that ordered his capture were dead he clearly lost his mind an wanted to just burn NC to the ground.

Now this is the most braindead waifu fag I've seen so far in these threads, and the competition is steep. Congratulations!

>character so ass you couldn't even memorize her name right
Lmao, now that is funny
Just admit you only remember her for her design
>>
>>291983680
>unrealistic
She was a literal psycho bitch bent on getting any kind of "revenge" by any means necessary
She is exactly what D became after he got mind raped by the Arasaka corpo
Her dying was the pivotal point of D coming to his senses.
Good riddance

Chicken is illegal in NC. You just fucked up you shotapsycho.

I watched it just now and it wasn't that great of a story. it felt like a fart in the wind. it was way too over the place. felt like whole D and Talia thing could have been 2 different stories instead of being shoved in one season.
>>
A 2 to 4 year age gap is not much in your 20s but in your early to mid teens it is pretty big (I'm not objecting to the ship calm down) so I'm wondering if due to Talia's condition and early adoption of cybernetics she perceives herself younger than she is so looking at Roman she's thinking 'yeah that's about my peer group right?' which is why she thought 'boyfriend'.
>>
>>291987162
Neither would’ve filled a season on their own without substantial additions, all it really needed was another two episodes
>>
>>291985117
From what I understand he's more of tool of the GM to pressure the players, some in some sense he is a god

Why that?
Just say you're a fan his work and that you want to meet him
It's that ez

When did that happen?
>>
>>291982156
So that I would watch it.
>>
>>291987228
>she perceives herself younger than she is so looking at Roman she's thinking 'yeah that's about my peer group right?' which is why she thought 'boyfriend'.
But if I do it, everyone loses their minds

when he infiltrated Arasaka with Capri's help
>>
>>291987273
He’s not literally unkillable but with how the game works you have basically 0 chance unless you specifically prepared for the encounter
>>
>>291986589
>tfw no supportive dad to give me coffee when I'm making terrorist propaganda
>>
>>291987554
Interesting, but does the encounter only end when he's dead or is GM able to 'rescue' him before he dies to use later
>>
>>291987502
When they met the impertinent old cybersecurity man? Mindraped is an exaggeration, he just got really mad and almost killed him
>>
>>291987425
lol
Why did he almost do it
>>
>>291987698
But he's the reason why D was so adamant in getting fucking up Arasaka. D never killed anyone before that, he got so much in his head (with some help from Capri too) that he killed him.
>>
>>291987779
True, he was the trigger.
>>
>>291987762
>lose all you money and assets
>lose all your chrome and can't even use it if he had it
>lost his "friends"
>lost the love of his life
If anything it's a miracle he had the will to go to a beach to end it all
>>
>>291987032
His boss directly points out it was Kiril who hired King.
>>
>>291987228
>>291987500
Talia is obviously emotionally and socially stunted, having spent most of her short life in a hospital. It becomes more and more obvious with each episode that Roman is in many ways more mature than her.

She's literally a crippled, frightened girl trying to come to grips with the fact she's about to die without so much as holding a boy's hand, having a single friend or not feeling like a dying bug.

You sound mentally ill, and your freak obsession with "ack" will never be normal.

It's honestly funny how blatantly obvious it is that you use proxies to spam and flood threads.

So strange how !-Akemi isn't here to instantly reply.
He really must have been in that other harem shit thread all on his own.
