It's interesting to consider what his full power even is. He doesn't flaunt his abilities, but it's pretty obvious he's negotiating only for the sake of humanity. If he actually wanted to force something on us, nobody could stop him.

His expressiveness has expanded since the first contact, especially when he's with his "premium human". Besides, zaShunina learned the concept of human language in a minute; he's an extremely fast learner. He doesn't feel the same things, but his analysis and perception can be impeccable.

zaShunina: Shindo. When was the last time you slept?
Shindo: (Don't tell me...!?)
Asano: You didn't sleep last night either, did you? I sure envy you your energy... (Guess I'm not twenty anymore)
Shindo: (grin) Well, I suppose I'm still young...
Asano: We're the same age, you ass!
Shindo: And I was so smug about it, too!
zaShunina: Mankind will no longer... Shindo.
zaShunina: Pay attention.

He doesn't in the manga, but it's shit anyway and thus irrelevant.

>>3107436
Well they obviously wouldn't draw it, but I'm sure he included one when he created the body. He did get the template from Shindo after all. Why not be anatomically correct?

>>3107438
He's not made of meat and he most likely doesn't have most (if any) bodily functions. For example, his VA mentioned that zaShunina doesn't breathe out where a human would, which is one of the reasons why his speech sounds so artificial.

>>3107861
Damn there's some good shit in here.
Someone please summarize.

>>3107861
>4Gamer: Yaha-kui zaShunina, the anisotropic, what kind of a person is he?
>Noguchi (producer): That's the thing - he is not really a "person", he is a being from outside of the known space. He's only imitating a human, but he himself is something else entirely. And since he's unfamiliar with human conduct, watching him communicate, learn things such as a handshake, and study human culture is one of the interesting points of the show, I think.
>He also provides a curious perspective. Just like being Japanese can make you ignorant of what Japan is really like, zaShunina's alien view gives us humans a different look at ourselves... Here I'll digress a bit, but there's a member of our anime staff who keeps pet ants. If we compare zaShunina to a human, mankind is pretty much like ants to him. His perspective is that much more advanced and remote.
>4Gamers: He's watching us through a god's eyes, then?
>Noguchi: Indeed. If you pour some water on an ant nest, the ants will freak out and start running all the over the place. I think that's what mankind looked like to zaShunina after he gave them the Wam. He sees we move in some way, so he digs a new hole and watches. (laugh)
Shindo confirmed for a premium ant.

>>3107885
>4Gamer: Feels like we're made to dance on a god's palm, doesn't it. (laugh) But there is a conversation between Shindo and his mother in episode 6 where they brought up that "it'd be lonely if it were all by itself" and alluded to Yaha-kui zaShunina's more humane aspects. Should we expect zaShunina to feel closer to humanity now?
>Noguchi: Yes. Notice how communicating with Shindo softens him and in the process he learns more about what humans are like. Will his viewpoint change to a more empathetic one, or will he remain an observer watching the ants scurry about? This is actually a very important part of the story to come. The lines in episode 6 are a foreshadowing and the key of sorts.
>4Gamer: By episode 6, zaShunina has given mankind the Wam and stated that humanity will no longer need to sleep. He is changing people's lives dramatically, but what is his real motive?
>Noguchi: With the Wam he solved our energy problem; with the "no need to sleep" thing he is addressing our labor problems. The running theme of the show is "keep thinking and considering", so he keeps presenting questions for mankind to consider. The answers will always differ depending on the individual, so while people abroad might react to sleep revolution with "Great! Now I'm gonna have more free time!", the Japanese may take it as "Great, now I have to work more'. Nowadays people decry how little time they have, not to mention they are being squeezed dry by the corporations that employ them, so many wish the power to decide their lives was returned back to the individual level. (...) People's values are influenced by their way of living and rhythm, so I'd say he is inviting people with all these different values to reevaluate what "right" means to them.

623KB, 800x1189px

>>3107918
>4Gamer: So Yaha-kui zaShunina's "find the right answer" call is not meant only for mankind as a whole, but also for every individual?
>Noguchi: Yes. He is inviting everybody to think, to consider various problems, and then find the right answer. The show itself is heading towards its own "right answer", but whether it really was the right thing to do will differ depending on each viewer.
>4Gamer: Aside from Yaha-kui zaShunina, who is personally your favorite character?
>Noguchi: Asano.
>4Gamer: Shindo's friend Asano Shuuhei, then. That's a rather surprising choice.
>Noguchi: Asano's perspective is probably the most objective in this series of events. Yaha-kui zaShunina and Shindo are the interested party, while the public are the victims. Asano is close to the interested party, but he's not part of it and he observes from the outside.
>4Gamer: Episode 6.5 has just aired, so what should we look forward to in episode 7?
>Noguchi: Expect more objects like the Wam. Mankind will start receiving more questions even faster and the human side will have to give their answers to that.
>4Gamer: So there is more to deal with. The sleep revolution itself is a big upheaval, no?
>Noguchi: Yaha-kui zaShunina thinks humanity is still lacking some things and he is ready to give them. What he is doing is essentially compressing human technological and societal progress on a very drastic timescale. He is compressing things that would take 100 years into a single year and letting mankind experience that.
I'd say this interview debunks all the enslavement and invasion theories, at least.

zaShunina could also stay on Earth. He's clearly enjoying himself and if he's really as solitary as implied, it's not like he's needed anywhere else. There's a lot humanity could learn from him if they wanted to.

>>3110740

>>3110722
To be fair, he only wanted his husbando. And since he's all about information, he doesn't really distinguish between "real" and "fake".

IMO zaShunina probably doesn't understand the concept of death the way humans do. He likely sees the current Shindo as simply being a few extra hours of undesirable information, and considers the "existence" of Shindo important, rather than that single strand of consciousness. He likely cannot understand the implications of the fact he's attempting murder - in his mind, he's just deleting some data, and Shindo is still there and fine. And most importantly, the rolled back Shindo wouldn't possess the memory of him dropping his spaghetti. It's actually really disturbing to think about it. "I want you to disappear" just delivered to casually...

Or I'm wrong, and he fully understands death and murder, and just doesn't care. And it makes me
wonder if he's done this before.

The awkward pause about the tunnel/transformation was a huge give away something bad would happen. zaShunina seemed sad/guilty - maybe that was when he made the copy.

>>3110745
>He likely sees the current Shindo as simply being a few extra hours of undesirable information, and considers the "existence" of Shindo important, rather than that single strand of consciousness.
Pretty much. zaShunina is a huge information processor; life means information to him. As long as the main information cluster remains, the object is alive.

>>3110745
The best comparison you can make is VN players who reload when they mess up. They still care for their waifu/husbando, but s/he still just data to them.

>>3110748
In this case, it's complicated by the fact that everything is "just" data to him. It's simply the way he perceives the world.

This is still up for debate. A negotiation and understanding end is still on the table.

I don't get why you suddenly say it's impossible now. If anything I think it's now more possible than ever. Are you just circlejerking or something?

I made some shitty OC in light of the most recent episode, but it's kind of gory so I don't know if that would be breaking the 'no guro' rule.

>>3110876
>>3110883

Well I just don't feel like attempted murder coupled with a reminder that Zashunina is a very alien being that doesn't operates on our morality and also is more or less a god bodes well for the possibility of romance.

I'd be neat to be wrong on this I guess, but I prefer to temper my expectations.

>>3110889
Forgot to say, I'm happy that the show openly admitted that Hanamori has feelings for Shindo.

>>3110889
From his point of view it's not an attempted murder but merely a reset to 70 hours earlier, you shouldn't judge him from human point of view.
I think the way they stressed just how much he changed in such a short period of time and why that happened is very important.
The next episode is about their final stage of negotiation, and also Shindo didn't even say no, he just had no time to answer.

I always kept my expectations as low as possible and from the start didn't expect anything more than awkward autistic alien behavior. But the show somehow always managed to exceed my expectations every week. Now that it basically turned full homo^2, I think it passed the point of no return. Any het end would feel horribly out of place at this point.

>From his point of view it's not an attempted murder but merely a reset to 70 hours earlier, you shouldn't judge him from human point of view.
Yeah, zaShunina sees things in terms of information/data - he probably viewed it as deleting a bit of unwanted data and rolling back to a earlier save copy. I don't think he truly understands the way humans view consciousness/death/etc... To him, all Shindo's are Shindo. But to Shindo, he's about to be killed and a clone is taking his place.
>I think the way they stressed just how much he changed in such a short period of time and why that happened is very important.
That alien view, plus his newfound human emotions, made him act erratically and impusively. The alcohol could have done it too. The depressed/wistful look on his face when he asks Shindo to come with him really shows...
>The next episode is about their final stage of negotiation, and also Shindo didn't even say no, he just had no time to answer.
Yeah, I'm still holding out for a bittersweet negotiation ending. I doubt Shindo will go with him, but maybe we'll be pleasantly surprised. I think Shindo was too tired/shell-shocked to answer, and zaShunina decided he'd dropped his spaghetti too hard and didn't like how it went.

Or maybe we're wrong, and zaShunina knows fully well that killing and replacing Shindo was immoral, and simply doesn't care. That worries me.

That's what I was talking about when I mentioned that he operates outside of our understanding of morality. He is an alien being and developing some undesrstanding of human emotions didn't really change that.

>>3110899

(You)r interesting post really made me change my mind.
Now say, are you also one of those that think he's "evil" (whatever that's supposed to mean) now?

eh, why argue now? nobody is right or wrong until the series concludes

>>3111063
Im not the anon you're talking with, but wouldn't it be fair to say that, by the moral standarts of the human race, Zashunina is evil? Just because his latest actions aren't a bad thing from the point of view of his culture/species/state of being doesn't means that they should be acceptable to us.

Though I do hope for a peaceful resolution, maybe Shindo can talk sense into Zashunina now that Tsukai's there to protect him from disintegration.

>>3111113
>Just because his latest actions aren't a bad thing from the point of view of his culture/species/state of being doesn't means that they should be acceptable to us.
I think the point here is that "evil" and "morality" are relative. That's common in a lot of stories in this vein.

>>3111113
zaShunina is still trying to do the best for both humanity and the anisotropic, so no. The Shindo save states are much more questionable, but considering that from his perspective nothing is actually lost (objectively, Shindo as a person and information cluster would continue to exist), things get kind of messy. zaShunina literally sees a different picture than we do.

>>3111063
Oh, no. I agree with you about evil being relative and zaShunina should not be considered a bad guy. He's not doing anything with intention to harm.

Where your delusion comes in is the part about a het end being out of place. They've been hitting every 'they're getting together' troupe in the book for Shindo and Tsukai, from 'No, dad, we're not a couple!' to 'Go for it, girl!', it would actually be genuinely surprising if they didn't hook up.

I love how almost instantly after the episode aired, nearly all of the zaShunina art went from fluffy and moe to twisted and yandere.
I love this development.

I'm generally in agreement with the sentiment that zaShunina views killing Shindo and restarting with the clone as just rolling back a save point.

However, I'm getting hung up on the "I'm going to start over with him. And
I want you to disappear part." That seems awfully like zaShunina fully understanding the two Shindo's are separate, at least somewhat, and that he's eliminating the consciousness he's been interacting with so far.

I'm not sure how I feel about that.
He KNOWS he's killing *a* Shindo, he's differentiating between the two of them. It's far more complex than him just deleting a few unwanted hours.

>>3111198
It probably doesn't seem like such a big deal to him. Consider this: in order to simply communicate with humans, zaShunina locked himself into a much more limited form, left his body and mind completely open to a myriad of new and potentially dangerous stimuli, and had to restructure his very way of thinking. In comparison, if "a' Shindo continues to exist pretty much the same he's always been, then nothing is truly lost or changed. If you don't subscribe to the notion that every conscious thought is precious, then it becomes kind of hard to pinpoint where the harm is.

>>3111198
zaShunina has the understanding that multiple, and theoretically infinite amounts of someone can exist parallel to another. He probably just sees this Shindo has one that has lost the drive to achieve zaShunina primary goal, obtaining and pursuing information.

A good analogy would be a sprouting branch that's growing in undesired direction. Naturally he would cut it back move it in a better direction, even if he does lose a couple of hours of progress.

>>3111217
That too. A single "self" becomes considerably less important if you see the object existing almost fractally. As he said, "what you think of as everything is merely a single cross-section of a greater individual". I'm guessing he perceives an individual more like a cloud of information layers rather than a sharply delineated person.

>>3111217
>He probably just sees this Shindo has one that has lost the drive to achieve zaShunina primary goal, obtaining and pursuing information.
I don't think this is why he decided to kill Shindo at all. It was over personal desires, not the uplifting, and frustration over his own mistakes/how things went.

>>3111316
Considering the weight of what he'd said, his anxiety and frustration are surprisingly understandable. He'd just revealed his species, the way his very existence works, his feelings, and made an unprecedented offer to a member of the species who should be like mice to him. He was willing to give the key to the universe and himself to a much lower creature, making himself vulnerable in the process. It was a huge risk.

>>3111435
Nah, I feel after the initial sad/wistful request, he becomes jarringly cold and kind of freaky. The "too soon" and explanation of the clone and "I want you to dissapear" were honestly disturbing.

It's like he's already written off the existing Shindo, and views murdering him as some sort of clinicalrrmoval of an unwanted growth. He's not sad, because he gets to try again and do better with another Shindo.

The most discouraging part was that it all is just a giant misunderstanding. Shindo didn't say yes or no, he was just exhausted from the 70h isolation. And zaShunina didn't even give him like a couple of minutes to consider such incredibly important offer and immediately assumed it was a rejection. What a self-conscious alien indeed.

Well, considering we see Shindo lying in a pool of blood, something like it is possible.

I think so.

He wants Shindo to "disappear" - and his kind view everything as data. Remember how fascinated he was by just poking some bread? The physical world and everything in it are things he's just coming to understand.

The emotional reasoning/regrets aside, I'm getting the feeling he doesn't understand the idea of suffering, death, or pain yet - anything of the sort. He probably understands the concept in terms of 1's and 0's, but I could imagine him not really being prepared for how messy killing somebody with a giant laser sword or whatever is. Especially if they don't die instantly. Now throw in the fact that he "loves" the individual he's done it too, and any potential dialogue that may occur during/after, and you could get a very upset anisotropic alien.

I'm legitimately surprised they didn't no-homo the marriage proposal. They straight-up said that it was a confession of love and that zaShunina asked Shindo to walk the same path of life together.
Ballzy.

>>3111692
Frankly, I started watching it because the synopsis seemed intriguing and original, I didn't even know the characters or anything let alone expect some kind of homo. When by ep 2 I saw all the main characters I figured it would have some kind of pandering or cute interactions, no more (or so I thought).
But then week after week, it managed to exceed my expectations in every way: story and homo wise it kept amusing me.

I can honestly say I didn't truly enjoy a show like that for a long time.

You know, I can't help but wonder at this point (since he never responded at all to Tsukai's behavior) if Shindo himself isn't gay.

>>3111691
There's also the fact that his whole species are creator gods that usually think and operate on an universal scale. I recall the producer mentioning that seeing people as individuals (as opposed to mankind as a whole) doesn't come naturally to zaShunina, presumably because the scale is just too small compared to how his mind normally works. Shindo quickly became an exception to this rule, but it's not surprising that he wouldn't think much of a few extra hours of data if his normal reference points are galaxy-sized.

>>3111702
Doubt it. Seems not interested in relationships and fully devoted to his work.

>>3111702
Judging by Natsume and Asano's comments, it seems he's just sapiosexual. The bigger and more complex mind, the more attractive it is for him. It explains why he took to zaShunina so quickly, to the point it disturbed people around him: Shindo is curious, somewhat odd, and always interested to see different perspectives, so zaShunina's immense, eccentric brain must be like a bottomless well of stimulation. Nothing is ever mundane with him.

>>3111785
When a group of people gets a common plate, it usually has just like two slices of lemon for the whole group, so there's never enough. And since zaShunina's hands can wander all around the table, he just took those slices and distributed the juice to everyone as needed.
Basically, he applied his space communism method again.
