Oh yeah, I have a question regarding Tokyo Debunker curses and Anomalies.
First of all, do curses work on Ghouls or not? Like can anomalies curse them or no? Because my inferences, although they are just inferences, are very contradictory.
The Prologue makes it seem like maybe Kyklos can't affect Ghouls? But I looked at it again, and technically Taiga never does see her eye.
That, and Ed said in chapter 6 that if MC did turn into an Anomaly, it would be best for her to stick with the ghouls as she has been doing. This could just be Ed's whole "humans and Anomalies aren't compatible" thing, as he literally did say that right after, but it also seems to directly imply that it would be safe for the ghouls to be near her when she turns anomaly.
Also, if Ghouls are anomalies, then it wouldn't really be a question of Ghoul v. Anomaly, and more Anomaly v. Anomaly.
In which case, I'm still unclear. Kaito's a ghoul, (AKA anomaly) and the Sinostra-dealer-Rapunzel-curse affected him. Ed's a ghoul/anomaly, and Rui's curse affected him. But if Rui's curse worked on any anomaly, couldn't he have just touched the Barometz instead of, yk, having it sliced open?
I ask this purely for fanfic writing reasons. My brain won't let me write important lore details unless they're compliant to the rules of the fictional universe.
Spoilers for episode... 6? I think? Of Tokyo Debunker.
Okay. So. 10-20 is a LOT of information. Christ.
First of all, not very important just kinda funny, MC is so desensitized to everyone's flirting that Rui goes "sweet dreams, cutie!" And she's just like "oh, okay." Which I find hilarious
Secondly, there was something about his curse he didn't want to discuss. Whether out of secrecy or just embarrassment, I don't know, but either way.
I also find it *really* cute that when she's called in about Lyca, he's like "nope. I did nothing wrong, it's not my fault, leave me alone." And as soon as she starts looking sad about it he immediately switches up and goes "ugh fineeee I'll TRY to double think before I resort to violence next time."
Darkwick might've killed Neros. Ngl. Wouldn't be surprised.
Also, my timeline as is seems to be
1. Lyca gets taken to Darkwick
2. Murder
3. Clash (because of murder) (happens during Gala?) (kills Zenji?)
4. Houses defunct
And that's about all I got for the timeline.
Speaking of; the suspects for the murder.
I believe it was Alan, Towa, Jiro, Rui and Edward? Alan has already killed someone, but that someone has 2 eyes so I think we can rule him out. Towa, I want to rule him out but without knowing why he's a suspect that feels like the wrong way to go. Jiro I can't really speak for bc I've met him like twice in game so far. Rui as a suspect would've either been a horrible accident or just prejudice from his curse. Ed seems like he would murder someone. And not care. Just a hunch. But idk if that's enough to convict him.
So basically I have no clue. I wanna say either a freak accident involving Rui, or Ed did it on purpose, but what the hell do I know.
Had to Google what gigolo meant cuz I thought it was just like a clown but the actual definition makes it so much funnier r u kidding me. Lyca's basically saying "fuck off harlot" Everytime he speaks to Rui I love this
Also I can count like 4 times now that the story has treated MC like a precious stone and I love it sm. Haru in the bar, Zenji saying how much Haku and Towa talk about her, Jin slapping Luca for leaving her alone in Vagastrom, and now Rui making them both part-timers but having Lyca do all the work while MC just relaxes.
Also, call me crazy but I am not a fan of Professor Nicholas. He seems suspicious and idk why. Like why was he so eager to leave as soon as he saw MC? Is it because he was caught slacking and getting drunk while meant to be researching her curse? Lol
Also I don't think the drinks being technically non-alcoholic makes it any better. Especially if it's anomalous plants that make u tipsy instead. Isn't that just like... Liquefied drugs? He's serving drug tea. No way that's more legal than serving them alcohol.
OH, AND WHY DOES EVERYONE ALWAYS GLOSS OVER THE CLASH??? like I get story wise it's for "suspense" and "mystery" but CMON.
Any. Time. She tries to ask about the Clash it gets shot down IMMEDIATELY. Like I get that it's a "sensitive topic" or wtv but like dude, if we're going to hold the Gala again, the thing that presumably started the clash, shouldn't we be researching it so we at least know what NOT to do???
That's all I have for the next... *Looks at calender* month, probably. These take so fuckin long. The cases I mean, not posting. LIKE LOOK AT THIS
ONE. I GOT ONE ENEMY DOWN. 810 THOUSAND POWER AND I GOT ONE ENEMY DOWN.
