Hey everyone.

I just wanted you to know I will not be enforcing any swift rule changes, this board will continue to operate as before as a lax place for discussion of japanese culture and anime.

Feel free to ask anything ITT

Yo anons, it's the same OP from that Amnesia Wind thread (https://8kun.top/animu/res/119340.html). Been diving deep into Chainsaw Man lately, and man, why'd they have to kill off so many characters? Like, what was Fujimoto thinking? Power, Aki, Angel Demon, Himeno... all gone, and it hits hard. Power was such a gremlin, her and Meowy (prolly dead too, rip) brought so much chaos energy. Aki's death was just brutal, that Gun Devil fight? Oof, my heart. Angel Demon had that tragic vibe, and Himeno, damn, her sacrifice was peak "I'm not crying, you're crying" moment.

Kinda reminds me of other gut-punch deaths like Suyi from Amnesia Wind. Girl was out there surviving a messed-up world, only to get snuffed out like it was nothing. Or Cosmo from Sonic X, that plant-alien kid who went full martyr to save everyone. Funny thing, Chainsaw Man literally has a character named Cosmo, and guess what? She ded too. Irony much?

Fujimoto's just out here swinging the scythe, no mercy. Makes you wonder if he's got a grudge against happy endings. Compare that to, say, Blade from Marvel, Vampire Hunter D, Dante, or Hellboy. Those demon-vampire bois are out here collaborating with humans, saving the world, no problem. But in Chainsaw Man? Nah, devils and humans ain't teaming up for no buddy cop flick. It's all betrayal and blood.

And then there's Makima. Bet she's just gonna snap her fingers and reboot reality or something. They teased Power and Aki coming back, but nah, we're still stuck with the L. No Himeno, no Angel Demon, just pain. Maybe Fujimoto's waiting for a popularity poll to bring 'em back, lol.

P.S. Maybe if we spam enough fanart and boost their ratings, Fujimoto'll pull a Makima and revive 'em. She died and came back, so why not the others? Wishful thinking, I know.

Yo anons, OP here, it's been a whole day and y'all are sleeping on this thread? C'mon, Chainsaw Man's slaughterfest deserves some love! Power getting offed with Meowy (rip), Aki's tragic L, Himeno's sacrifice, Angel Demon's quiet exit... Fujimoto's out here playing grim reaper. How's it hit you? Got any theories on why he went so hard? Or you just crying in the corner like me? Drop your takes, let's get this going! Compare it to Suyi or Cosmo's deaths, or hell, tell me if Blade and Dante would survive this mess. Also, lowkey, Power > Makima. Power's just a wild, adorable demon-hunter gremlin, while Makima's all "bow to me" vibes. Makima's cool, but girl needs to chill a bit, evolve that control freak side, y'know?

Hey anons,

The other day I watched the Wind of Amnesia anime and really want to read the original novel, but I haven't been able to find it for free anywhere.

However, I did find a site where you can download all sorts of books and light novels for free, but to download what I need, I have to pass some kind of test. The problem is, I can't even get through the test properly because of all the pop-up casino ads. There was also another site that seemed to have leaks, but it wanted me to link my card, which felt super sketchy.

Anyone else interested in this anime? If so, let's team up and try to find a working link to a pirated version of the light novel (even the original Japanese version would work). I'm tired of dealing with all this shady stuff just to read a book.

(Same anon who posted the last post)

Just had another think about Sophia - she's givin' me some Vegeta and Shadow vibes too (and yeah, Shadow's basically built off Vegeta, eh). Vegeta's a pretty negative character at first, but his motivation's clear as day, and he changes up thanks to new mates. Same deal with Shadow - goes from a moody loner to carin' about others. Seems like Sophia’s got a similar arc goin', but bloody hell, we've got no clue why her race did what they did! Why wipe out humanity’s memory? What's drivin' 'em? And finally... The romantic line of Wataru and Sofia, I'll say it again, was thrown out. Without that, her whole story feels half-baked, and it’s proper annoyin'. #WataruXSophia still deserves a proper reveal, full stop!

>tfw you just wanted to relax after reading that damn second post but your brain won’t shut up

Alright lads, I came here to cool off but now I can’t stop thinking. That theory hit something real, and now my neurons are cooking like bacon.

So here’s a thought to mix into the madness --- what if Sophia’s race’ a abilities aren’t just inspired by Kikuchi’s other works (especially) Vampire Hunter D, but actually connected?

I mean, both D and Sophia’s race mess with psionics, regeneration, and some weird-ass ancient biotech.

What if we’re looking at the same multiverse, just different echoes or timelines? Like D’s world is a post-post-apocalypse version after Wind of Amnesia’s story goes horribly wrong?

Or maybe Sophia's race are just early-stage Nobility trying to evolve beyond vampirism?

I'm not saying kino-tier crossover bait, but it would explain some shared themes.

Also ngl, if this series blows up too hard we’re gonna get the usual plague of Reddit-tier tourists and fanartists drawing Wataru as a catboy. But y’know what? Worth it if this noise gets loud enough that Kikuchi or whoever the IP holders are finally pull the trigger on a sequel or hard reboot.

We meme it into existence, boys. Just like old times.

(OP here)

mfw the wind didn’t just wipe memories

it also erased my tax debt

and any reason not to make Sophia the new Makima

she’s got long hair, the “difficult love”, and the “I could erase you from existence but I won’t… yet” energy

I don’t trust her but I’d still follow her into a memory-wiped hellscape

Hey, I'm the legit OP of this thread, and I'm getting pretty frustrated with how this is playing out. I kicked off this thread to track down the Wind of Amnesia novel - Japanese raw or translation, whatever works - and maybe get some solid discussion going about the anime. I posted the same thing on Endchan too, and both threads are getting buried under the same AI-generated slop. Sure, some of the theories are neat, and those sequel pitches are honestly dope (someone really needs to ping the original author about that), but this is not what I was going for.

I tried tossing in a few jokes in my last post here and on Endchan to keep the vibe alive, but got zero response. Zilch. The threads are still live, so there's room for anyone who's genuinely into this to drop something real. Don't hold back - post a link to the novel if you know one, or just talk about the anime without veering into Griffith-Vegeta-Shadow crossover fanfic land. I appreciate the energy, but let's stay on track. Anyone got a source for the book or some actual thoughts on the anime? Lay it on me. #SaveWindOfAmnesia

Hello, /a/. I just wanted to let you know about https://kind.moe/kind/index.html . I'd appreciate it if you'd take the time to drop in and say hello. It's not really devoted to the discussion of topics pertaining to this board, but I think kindness is or should be a virtue valued by all, irrespective of our differences!

Youtube streaming did pretty much kill Telltale, but they also made a lot of shitty games, and after a point people decided they'd rather watch them on Youtube than actually play them. You have to put some blame on them as a company, after a certain some point.

Telltale sudoku'd through pure retardation. They put out a trillion "games" on the same engine, where the only gameplay was QTEs, and with generic stories sold on choice-based systems that didn't provide actual choice.

If a single one of these variables had been different, they'd probably still exist.

Any Fighting Fantasy book has a thousand times more choice than Telltale shit. And it's better written to boot.
