That settles it, these rulings are completely arbitrary. Going to watch this through for Nona, but this show is objectively shit other than her.

The only one who can even be debated about going to Hell is the NEET, since he committed suicide. Mother did nothing wrong, especially considering how she got shit on her whole life.

>Mother did nothing wrong, especially considering how she got shit on her whole life.

Did you even watch the episode? She's arrogant, rude, violent, makes poor life decisions and her kids suffer from it. She even curses them when she does her special in the game and it does jack shit.
>>
I haven't watched the episode yet but I think you are missing the point.
They are not judging their lives.
They are not.

They are judging how much humanity they are showing right there, during the game.
It doesn't matter what kind of life you lived. If you show human emotions (love, compassion etc) then you're okay to be reincarnated.

All of that constitutes their "cultural background" on suicide.

A guy jumping off a roof because his company goes under is basically the modern version daimyo committing seppuku because his castle is lost.
>>
>>120672264
I think being a Japanese show it's less about the suicide and more about the parent that driven him into it

like in anime/manga Jap parents tend to disregard the mental state of their children and try to turn them into robots so they can get into a good university (which is funny because there's like less than 5 good universities in Japan) and become a salary man that works 26 hours a day with a gold digger wife and kids that don't like you (maybe because your wife is trying to turn them into robots).

at that point suicide kinda makes sense

>caring for your kids
The whore was pumping out kids by the dozen and ruining each of their lives by making retarded fucking life choices that no one forced her to. She is violent, opportunistic, careless, selfish and hedonist. Her kids are well on their way to end up like the NEET.

And to top it all off she shown absolutely disgusting behavior during the game. From trying to play the virgin like a fiddle in her favor, trying to brute force information out of Decim, smashing a young man's fucking face into the arcade to kill him and finally throwing a rage fit when the judgment was made. Yeah, a real angel that one. I wonder how much it would take for her to smash one of her kids head in as well.
>>
>>120671762
She's a violent bitch who verbally and physically abused her manager, used her family for fame and bashed a man's head into an arcade display when she thought she was going to lose.

Yes, she may have had a shitty life. But she wasn't a good person.

I wished the show put more emphasis on the games. Like, I don't even care about who wins or loses at all. I get that it's not that type of show, but the current formula is getting stale.
>>
>>120672725
Even if we agree that jumping off bridges it's the way of modern samurai it still doesn't make sense in this context:
They commit suicide because they have failed and he commits suicide because he's a weak-ass faggot.

>>120673347
Uh there is quite the emphasis on the games. I'd be complaining if the games were a quarter of lab episode or such, not when they basically cover the entire 20 minutes.

>Billiards had images of their organs, but didn't affect the players

What's the purpose, then? Darts had all their organs, and they'd hurt a lot if they hit something, but every other game has been painless.
>>
>>120673630
It's to provoke a reaction from the players.
The roulette is probably not nearly as random as it is implied to be. People probably get a game that seems appropriate at the time.
>>
I can't wait to see an episode where it's alternate reality versions of the same person

>>120673630
Intimidating the players?
Making them take the game seriously?
It's not guaranteed to work everytime, like in ep 3.
>>
>>120673630
Because the games are pre-determined to affect the players the most. The relationship between the husband and wife was already on the rocks, so real pain is apt way of handling it.

Compared to the bowling where they felt the temperature and pulse of each other, and were/are good friends who ended going on a date.
>>
>>120673568

I guess it's more that I don't feel much tension on who wins or loses. You don't need to win to be reincarnated right? The show's description made it seem like it's a game show.
>>
>>120673766
If you compare ep 1/2 and ep 3 however there is a pattern.
2 people who died in a fight with each other got the tools to hurt each other.
2 people who died in love with each other (or at least serious interest) got the tools to understand each other.

>>
>>120673827
Yeah it's pretty obvious that the games are tailored to the players.
But the organ pattern, or in ep 4 controling yourself as a fighting game chara, strengthen the idea that Decim wants them to play the game "with their lives on the line".
>>
>going to hell because you committed suicide
That makes even less sense.


She got voided because she didn't express a genuine desire to become a 'real' mother. She was shown to be self-centered in her memories shown and while playing the game. Decim understood that she wasn't going to change if he reincarnated her.
>>
>>120673903
I think he's referring to the part where they say the "random" roulette is fake. The game is decided before the players even know the rules.

Honestly, I was more interested in their families. I wanted to know how the kids would react and live on after their mother's death. We saw two high schoolers, and they seemed pretty mad. Not to mention this was a murder case.

Then there's the otaku. It feels like he just randomly decided to kill himself. I wanted to see his step mother.

Watch these 4 episodes, anyone else feel that episode 3 feels sort of out of place? Atleast for Decim's character.

I mean the 2 in episode 3 definitely got special treatment compared to the other couples. At first it seemed like it was just Decim becoming more "human" but then in this episode he blatantly tries his best to push both of them into a corner.

Meh.

One of the main issues I have with this show is that although it does drama decently, it doesn't have enough time to properly make you connect with the characters before the show is over.

Like the first 2 episodes was stereotype as fuck but tried to be emotional.
3rd episode was meh.
4th episode was more emotional but you still didn't get enough background from both character. Though it did do its job decently.

>>120676177
I was honestly expecting them to 'put their lives at risk' by playing the game without the ball.
You know, holding the grip to win so hard your hand starts bleeding?

Instead, the slut just bashed his head to win.
I mean, Jesus.

Do the tops of the joystick handles even matter?

Decime seems asexual as fuck though, the old man is an old man and the other guy...well maybe he could, we havent seen him yet.
>>
>>120676380
I don't see how, you might have to adjust your grip but it won't stop the stick from working.
>>
>>120676341
The guy was probably too busy kicking her ass and focused on winning to notice she was going apeshit.

Fucking ninja sluts.
>>
>>120676380
Cause you go from using your whole hand to just two fingers to move a stick?

Have you ever used one?
>>
>>120676470
>I don't see how, you might have to adjust your grip but it won't stop the stick from working.
It might be one of the different ways to see your character.

Some might beat the shit out of the opponent to win.
Some might now care and damage their body to win.
Some might plea with the opponent to play fair (testing both the advantaged player and the disadvantaged at once).
Some might try, like on that episode, to make a mad dash for the ball before anything happened (so test your luck to grab it I guess?)

Or some other variation I can't think.

The more I think about it, the more I believe that the lose the handle trick does show more about a person's character than you'd think.

Depending on the length of the actual joystick you might not be able to get the inputs you want and won't be able to react properly in time.

>Depending on the length of the actual joystick you might not be able to get the inputs you want and won't be able to react properly in time.
But you could still technically play, it's just a major disadvantage.

The fact is that both the otaku and the slut were given the same disadvantage and reacted differently.

The Otaku took his defeat in shame while the slut just beat the shit out of him.

Words 02 - Reincarnation and the Void

These are where souls that have been judged go.
Once the deceased have been judged after playing one of many games, they are escorted to two side-by-side doors, each containing a customers-only elevator leading to reincarnation or the void.
The "White Noh Mask" and the "Hannya Mask" are displayed above the elevator doors, and reveal where the souls are headed. Once the souls of the deceased have made their journey, their bodies take the form of dolls.
Those who are reincarnated may live anew in the present day, but those sent to the void are cast into the graveyard of souls.
Souls cast into the Void are left with their negative emotions and consciousness intact, and remain in nothingness for all eternity.

Regardless of semantics, heaven = good, hell = bad.
Reincarnation is good because you keep living, the void is bad because you truly just die.

It makes me wonder if everyone has to play these games or just faggots who have a mixed and unfulfilled life.

>>120678438
No, the void is your accomplishments in life.
>>
>>120678446
>but holy shit is the writing fucking terrible.
How so?
>>
>>120678460
That brings up a good point, once you're someone who is reincarnated, do you carry over the aspects so that you will ALWAYS reincarnate?

Or at some point will you be dealt a shit end and eventually everyone goes to the void?

So they pretty much live forever in nothingness? I have a feeling that "nothingness" isn't literal in this show. Keeping their negative emotions would also mean that they keep their memories, right?

Boring.
The memories coming back didn't accomplish much.
The twist was lame.
The real world tragedy was silly and unrelated to their lives (like in ep 1-2 with the car crash or in ep 4 with the slut getting killed by her assistant or the otaku killing himself)
The whole lovey dobbey was meh to me since the guy never even gave a fuck about the girl until she changed her face which tells you it was bullshit from the start. And that the girl really never moved on with her life. Poor writing overall.

And the game itself was boring.
The bowling didn't serve any point nor did 'losing' the game for the girl have an impact in any way, either plotwise or to either character.

Either way, ep 3 was lackluster.

It felt completely out of place and shat all over future possibilities for good episodes. Imagine an episode with two pretty decent people, but one has to get voided. It could lead to some interesting moral dilemmas for Decim and good character growth.

Instead we get "LOL DOUBLE REINCARNATION." Not to mention it now opens up the argument for every single episode to be "Why not just reincarnate both of them? They're not that bad of people."

It wasn't a bad episode on its own, but this is a series that is full of crazy death games with a ton of drama and moral arguments, a relaxed romantic bowling episode has no business existing.

>>120678922
No, because it was boring.
I don't need an edgy fight, just better writing.

Again, one of my main complaints about this show is that we get a horrible lack of backstory for many of the characters to give a fuck.

For example with ep 3, what the fuck happened in the lifes of the girl and the guy?
That's nearly a whole fucking decade.

It's somewhat okay with ep 1-2 since there was nothing there, just a misunderstanding (a shallow one at that) and ep 4 was slightly better since it only gave glimpse at both of the characters lives.

But ep 3 shows nothing and is nothing.

No matter how you slice it, everything about ep 3 is boring.
>>
>>120678779
>Crazy husband try to stop wife from throwing dart to win
Actually she was throwing the dart to tie.
>and try to beat up wife
His anger was kinda justified if you believed that what the wife said was true. (Which Decim did.)
>reincarnated
Once again, if you believe the wife's lies at the end, the husband goes from suspicious asshole to poor victim real quick.

Obviously I don't believe that, and neither does the show, Nona straight up tells you he should have been voided.
So I don't understand why you bash the show's writing when it clearly agrees with you.

>Ep3-Shows that you cant send both person to the same place
What is the problem with that?

>Ep4-Crazy slut try to beat up NEET to win, voided
What is the problem with that?

>They can't just reincarnate the doctor but void the ep4 slut.
Sure they can. Decim made a mistake in episode 1, but not in episode 4. The show acknowledges that. How is it bad writing?
>>
>>120678874
Yes it was a typo. I meant to say that you can send both to the same place.
Lets ignore his wife slut for a second and see what he did. Literally try to cheat and try to beat up his wife, reincarnated.
At first we thought that it is always 1void and 1reincarnated and clearly the wife was a much bigger whore so she deserved void.
But then the next ep came, we saw they can both be reincarnated and sent to the same place.

Then ep4 came, crazy slut actress beat up the NEET to try to win. Somehow got voided even if she actually shows remorse and felt guilty about it.

Now we look back at ep1. How is she worse than the husband from ep1?
How can people defend this shit writing?
Shit show absolutely deserved to bomb.

>>120678901
>"Why not just reincarnate both of them? They're not that bad of people."
To be fair, neither of them did anything wrong in their lives.

But she wasn't remorseful until she knew that there was no going back, even then it was self-centered.

That's why she got voided.

As for the husband getting reincarnated it's simple
Decim fucked up.
You can call it shit writing, but it shows that even though they're arbiters and judge souls they can still make mistakes.

It's probably why Onna is there, to give a different perspective on the matter.
>>
>>120679237

The problem, again, is that there isn't enough time for backstory and for the characters to play games.

Sure if you want to defend the show.
But in ep4 it was obvious they are always trying to rig the game to get ruse out of them.
Yet in ep3, they did no such thing and let it play out. If they didn't try to rig the joystick, there wouldn't be an angry outburst coming out from the crazed slut.
Yet her antics are deem worse than the husband from ep1. There is no consistency at all to the characters. This is pure retardation.

Both the characters in the first episode were pretty shitty people.

She was testing Onna. She wanted her to tell Decim he was wrong.

2 out of billions of souls? Negligeable. Teaching your arbiter a lesson so he doesn't keep fucking up when you're not around is much more important.
Decim isn't the only arbiter Nona is in charge of.

The selection of the people.
The fact that the people may or may not know each other.
The possible misinterpretation of the arbiter.
The fact that cheating is possible, making the games entirely irrelevant.

That's what confuses me, supposedly it matters how they act in the game. The husband acted like an asshole in the game though, but was a good person in life. He got reincarnated, so that clearly tells me it matters how they were in life, but that goes against the whole idea of the show and also what they explicitly state.

>Yet in ep3, they did no such thing and let it play out. If they didn't try to rig the joystick, there wouldn't be an angry outburst coming out from the crazed slut.
I think that's kind of the point.
From the beginning they were supposed to be under pressure, to make the players reveal the 'darkest parts of their souls'
But they weren't able to.
Maybe it's the reason Decim decided to rig the arcade cab; to put them under some sort of extreme situation and factor that in in order to judge them correctly.

Unlikely.

You fail to ignore that he was paranoid as fuck about thinking his wife cheated on him by simply name gossip.

That's beyond retarded.

That's a huge major fuck up and shows how petty he truly is.
What kind of idiot is jealous and doesn't trust his wife on his fucking wedding day of all days?
>>
>>120679693
She literally slamdunked another mans penis into her vagina which was a place specifically reserved for her husband, she deserved hell and the husbands paranoia although over the top was justified.
>>
>>120679525
It's not that his life mattered, but that his wife managed to convince Decim that he was right.
Her love for him was strong enough that you might argue she'd be satisfied if she knew the outcome.
>>
>they can remove memories from that dead, and put them back in a controlled fashion

>they still need to have them play some nonsense game to determine what kind of person they are

>>120679741
>>120679657
Also, that's what the girl with the blue hair noticed in the elevator when she said that the assistant girl 'still had ways to go'.

She noticed that the wife lied for the husband but stopped her logic there.
Further reasoning shows that the husband is a faggot and that Decim truly did fuck up.

Not to mention him purposefully aiming at the stomach to give pain at his wife/baby simply due to doubts.

No matter how you slice it, the wife was good, the husband was a faggot.

Judgment should have been that the wife should be reincarnated and the husband sent to the void.

What are you talking about?
It was true, the wife was having an affair. She was just unlucky that her other friend named Matchy was also a cheating slut.

Decim only realized he fucked up when Onna brought up how the wife was lying at the end.
The husband was already seething with rage before the wife lies outburst.
>>
>>120679747

I thought what you did in life didn't matter when it comes to deciding between reincarnation or the void and the only important thing is your performance in the game like showing remorse. The husband was equally horrible in life considering he caused the deaths of both of them and their unborn child.
>>
>>120679657
>Why do you think he fucked up?
Nona tells us he did and how she thinks the husband soul can't find happiness . It's an internal monologue entierly for the benefit of the audience right at the end of episode 2.
Sure you can go "Well it's just her opinion." but that doesn't change the fact that the show brings up the fact that the husband should have been voided through a character that has superior authority and experience over Decim.

So yeah, if you take that into account that the "real" judgment of ep1 should have been wife:reincarnation and husband:void then the show is consistent.

We know she was having an affair.

He overhead gossip from his wife's friends talking about a similarly named person being a slut.

Of course if he truly believed 100% that meant she was a slut, he would dropped shit and ran out of there. But he didn't, he still had faith in his wife. It simply undermined his faith in her.

He only went volcano after she started acting suspicious about phone calls and I would assume other things.

>>120680030
You can live a nearly stainless life and still be a bad person.

Consider the example of the law-abiding citizen.

Person A is a law-abiding citizen that doesn't care for people. They have no empathy towards others. All they have is an OVERWHELMING fear of being punished by the authoritarian state he lives in. This state outlaws any wrongdoing. Thus person A lives a normal life, not harming anyone and maybe doing some good in order to fit in to his surroundings.

Just because you do no wrong or did good does not make you a good person. The reasons also matter.

They are only given their memories, not the emotions and thoughts that formed them. Those are lone gone.

If they decided on memory alone, person A would get a sweet shot at a new life, possibly in a less strict society, where their true colors will cause harm to others.

This shows why it is important for them to first test those who enter Quindecim on the basis of a game; to see how they act with a loose rule set that pits you against your fellow man.

Pretty good and efficient system if you ask me.
>>
>>120680173
Considering how many people are voided, the void is probably more crowded than Earth at this point.

>>120680349
>memories

>>
>>120680155
Regardless, it's gossip.
To become so suspicious that it fucks your relationship shows lack of truth on a stupid degree, especially on your wedding. And then it leads to your death.
Hell, I'd even say that even if she did cheat on him, that entire attitude is entirely unhealthy since he should have just confronted her rather than remain in doubt until his death.

This isn't like your girlfriend where her friends babbled and you might have suspicions but your damn wife. There's a difference.
If you're marrying her, you'd better well know she would never do something like this.

I still find that the husband is the most guilty in this. And the wife may or may not have cheated, I'm still undecided on this matter.

so if you get beat up by your husband and then beat up by your second husband it retroactively becomes your fault?
>>
I honestly think it went downhill from the first episode. Don't get me wrong, I liked the second couple, it's just that now we know too much and there is no fun in it. This episode for example was too obvious, it was all about the mother and it was sad (well done sad I admit) but what else? nothing.

It's still good and I like it but if it continues like this it won't be AotY or even AotS for me.
I hope in the future there is a twist about something (I like the theory were reincarnation is just them coming back) or if we start not seeing what their destinations are and we are left speculating.
>>
>>120680427
It's outright stated she actually 100% did cheat you dumbass.

And fuck you, why would you confront someone about fucking gossip?

Acting as if the wife is not to blame is retarded, if she actually loved her husband she'd fucking tell him she is a huge slut (or maybe block contact with her fucking 2nd man).

There's a lot we don't know about their relationship in between marriage, cheating, and honeymoon.

To assume she didn't set off a few alerts in the husband's mind I think is a bit ridiculous.

Even if not confronting her shows that the man is maybe a bit weak, that definitely does not fucking make him a better candidate for the void than some someone who had the gall and selfishness to two-time straight into marriage.

I'm sure she did that, and then she did the noble thing and decided to raise the children anyway, despite their deadbeat abusive fathers. To me she was a good person who became violent through being abused. It's pretty common for abuse victims to become abusers themselves.

Correction, it's not your fault but you're likely part of the problem.

She let herself get beaten.
She let herself have children with an abusing spouse.
It is not 'her' fault but she is part of it.

>>120680632
>And fuck you, why would you confront someone about fucking gossip?
Marriage is suppose to be something without secrets. There are many ways to get into that subject like joke about it, mention that the wife's friends are asshole because they talked shit saying that the wife cheated on me, etc.

I'm not saying the wife is not to blame but he should have been a man and confronted her rather than remain in doubt and suffered silently for it.

I'm really suspicious and cautious on just saying that the woman is entirely to blame.
She might have cheated but from the flashback, it didn't seem like she felt liberated by doing so.
But that's just pointless supposition from my part so meh.

The husband should have confronted his wife.

As for the young man in Death Billiards, sure he started the fight, but the old man fought back and enjoyed the fuck out of it too.

The girls that were punished were not punished for being sluts, it was because they were bad persons (or, in the case of the first woman, for convincing Decim she was). No, they are not the same thing, the mother went to void for being a shit mother and for what she did during the game.

Uh, why does it matter that she didn't feel liberated after cheating?

That's like saying "It's okay that guy just stabbed me in the face, because it doesn't look like he feels very happy about it."

Her feelings on that awful thing she did after the fact means nothing, especially when she doesn't fucking seek retribution for it.

>The husband should have confronted his wife.

Ok, so he didn't have the balls or tact to confront his wife about some suspicions.

I don't see in anyway how that makes him evil.

What Machiko said to Decim clearly affected the judgment.

I agree about the husband and the mom being bad and deserving the void.
Somehow the young dude in billiards doesn't feel as bad. Maybe because his fight with the old dude felt more like a natural extention of the game instead of some evil brutality like what the mom did.

>why does it matter that she didn't feel liberated after cheating?
Because it means she felt guilt in the act.
You cheat to find a better alternative without losing what you have with your significant other. Marriage brings safety but not always fulfillment. Cheating provides a small window to escape marriage without losing the benefits which is why it happens often when people aren't happy with their marriage.

But if you cheat and find no pleasure and don't feel liberated, then simply having sex with someone else you think is good isn't the right solution.
To me, she felt guilt and having sex didn't solve anything.
So it leads me to conclude that it was simply a poor judgement on the wife's part rather than her just not giving a fuck about her husband.

>makes him evil
It doesn't, just flawed.
And a faggot. Saying that you can't talk to your wife about suspicions is just silly if you think they might be true in some way.

Regardless, more information on both characters would be needed for me to make a correct judgement on who is wrong.
I'm still siding with the wife being right in cheating and the husband being a faggot for not confronting her.

Wanting to care for your children is selfish? She didn't say a thing about wanting to go back to her career, or even wanting to redo her shitty life, but she was screaming at Decim and begging him in tears to send her back to her kids.

He went through the game as a different soul before, reincarnated into beer belly-kun and just had the right luck of happening upon it again.

To commit adultery in the first place you have to at some point not give a fuck for the person you are cheating on.

You don't think about how much you care about your significant other when you're getting thrusted by some random guy you picked off the streets.

That kind of lack of caring is pretty good showing of a selfish person.

>I'm still siding with the wife being right in cheating and the husband being a faggot for not confronting her.

>>
>>120681372
>a power thing

What are you talking about? What kind of power does cheating possibly confer?

People cheat because they're unfulfilled by the relationship they have, usually emotionally. It's often not even about sex. There was an advice column letter last week from a straight elderly guy who slept with a man because he made him feel more desired than his wife (whose sex drive had disappeared after her chemotherapy and) did.
>>
>>120681432
Everyone is selfish, we just want to be happy.
If another person cannot make you happy, you seek it from someone else. It's just that she didn't find any happiness from cheating.

And, if your cheating, it means your partner is doing something wrong for you to have to go look somewhere else.

It's something I read once.
Cheating gives you power over your significant other who trusts you. It's not power you can use against him, but the feeling of superiority because you are betraying them and they can't do anything about it.
Quite often the people you cheat your partner with are significantly uglier than your actual partner.

If he was constantly treating her like a suspect already because of what he heard her friends at the wedding said, doubting her and checking up on her but never confronting her about it, she might have easily said "fuck it, if he's going to treat me like I'm unfaithful no matter what I may as well actually do it; anything's better than this shit." But after she did cheat on him she realized it didn't solve anything and only made her feel shitty because she did care about her husband.

To an extent. But there are definitely people that want to make others happy and put others before themselves.

>And, if your cheating, it means your partner is doing something wrong for you to have to go look somewhere else.
That's along the same lines as "If you don't lock your door, you deserve to be robbed."

Which is placing blame on the victim for not anticipating the evil of others (which oddly enough you were debating against anticipating the evil of others a few posts back).

Your flip-flopping/double-standards don't stop there. If the husband is really doing something wrong, why doesn't the wife point that out so they can improve their relationship?

Weren't you drilling the husband on not confronting his wife? Suddenly you're oddly quiet about the wife's lack of action towards improving their relationship by voicing concern.

I can't help but think at this point that you are arguing for the sake of arguing.

Which is a true statement. Except in the country where there are rarely any robbers but meh.

I think I get what you're saying and I have been flip flopping both sides of the argument without a discernible opinion because my original opinion to only blame the husband is not complete.
The last couple of posts are making me revise my opinion on the couple and I still don't know which side is correct.

The main issue here is that both the wife and the husband lacked communication between the two of them.
The wife seemed to have lacked something from the husband and sought to cheat and, in my view, did not find a satisfying happiness in the act.

And the husband, upon knowing that his wife was cheating, did not confront her to resolve issues which might have come from him due to the lack of communication from what displeased his wife.

The wife could have done more to communicate what she made her unhappy about being with him.
The husband could have done more to fix what displeased his wife.

Both were at fault.
I think we can end this discussion on that note.

Which is ironic since the mother in this episode acted exactly like what poorfags, niggers, spics, jungle asians, and sandniggers do in real life. They have no honor, dignity, or virtues. Is easy to anger and when something doesn't go their way they use violence.
