Is Annie wearing fucking uggs? Jesus christ how horrifying.

>>88232309
Likely boots. Tom doesn't exactly do intricate details on footwear.

>>88232377

Tom only takes an interest in bare feet...

$5 says they get rid of Jeanne and no one dies, but Forest/Court go to war.

This shit is too funny. Tom really is a tease

>>88232111
since Annie is an accomplished artist can't she just paint the scene for Kat?
obviously not now, but when they're back home, so that at least Kat can see what happened

She handcrafted a few pair of boots when she was in the forest for summer vacation. A few pairs of magical boots.

They could have done that in the rotd chapter too but didn't.

The odd thing is, kat can see the psychopomps the same way others do. The rules don't seem to apply equally to everything.

>>88234647
The psychopomps are physical entities, they just hide themselves.
I'm pretty sure she sees coyote just fine, too.

I'm pretty sure her ethereal form is doing something along the lines of turning it's 'arms' into Lovecraftian/Gigeresque masses of limbs and disassembling half of the multidimensional labyrinth that Annie's seeing.

Like pic related, but the size of a building and spookier.

>>88234990
that's an interesting comparison. in the 90s you could easily blow people's minds with computer wizardy. today they just expect you to do your magic.

if magic suddenly became real the same might happen too. 20 years later architects would just purchas WaaS (wizardy as a service) to build houses that are bigger on the inside and logistics would run on portals.

>>88234647
psychopomps REALLY look like that. there is no smoke and mirrors to them at all.

That part of GitS always bothered me. Why invent a hand that can type really fast instead of just having them interface with the computer directly.

>>88236721
Harder to track who it was unless there was a camera in the area.

You could turn this gag into an entir series where someone is whisked off to a magical world as the great hero, except they only see the banal version. Over time they grow more and more disillusioned as other peoples views of their actions grow farther and farther away from the protagonists reality, leaving only depression and disappointment.

It ends with either suicide or aligning with a villian who at least sees their reality in the same way.

>>88236721
Real reason is it looks cool but I think after reason is security. People don't want to hook their brain to a computer when there's a super hacker in the room.

So, how big id the Court-Forest ensemble, geographically speaking.

The Court come from people who fled persecution from the rest of Britain a log time ago, and took refuge in the forest, but ended up being separated from the forest and given it own territory. But one have to assume it's still quite isolated form the rest of UK. Yet, it look like the court has huge complexes and story buildings. And the Court+the Forest are still supposed to be quite removed from the rest of civilisation.

So, how big can it be before it get to be too big to be in any ways still a secret.

>>88236670
Tom knows that some stuff can never be as cool looking as just leaving it up to reader's imagination.

>>88232309
uggs are sexy. you're a fag.

>>88236877
I have a feeling the Court and Forest don't exist within normal space.

>>88236977
Jones didn't know about it until they found her so that's actually possible.

>>88237017
Yeah. I mean...you can get there and you can leave. Paz went on vacation after all. But I feel like maybe there's a boundary you cross and you go from driving along a forest somewhere in the UK and end up in the Gillitie Wood instead. As long as you know what you're looking for.

>>88237055
Gillitie is probably pretty closed off, there are probably very limited gates in and out and you might need to carry a charm or something. Certainly no roads.

>The rules don't seem to apply equally to everything.
I have noticed that Kat's vision so far has only applied to what was artificially human-made. The ROTD is mostly smoke and mirror created by dead humans. Same with the Device, created by the court.

I have the felling that it's meant to be more complex than it's actual purpose and because it was conceived with a simple purpose, Kat can directly see it.

>>88236831
>or aligning with a villian who at least sees their reality in the same way.

>>88236877
it's basically techno-hogwarts

>>88237971
"no record of their participation" is not the same as "no record of their existence"

the first implies they didn't want any public political affiliations.

>>88238226
>our beautiful brain is on an entirely different level t
There is little reason to hide your participation in a war if not wanting your existence to remain secret.

>Man, why don't I ever get to see the cool stuff?
Because you only peek on Annie masturbating. If you'd peek in on Parley and Smitty you'd see the cool stuff.

That's why Annie can't describe what she's seeing. She's a pure girl, and can't let such filth pass beyond her lips.

In the same way sweatpants are sexy.

i was starting in term of propaganda. If the court is public knowledge but is presented as not helping them, then it would be a sever blow to the moral of the troops.

By war logic, it only make sense for their participation to be kept secret, if their existence ALSO is secret. If their existence is already know before the war, then, it's in the best interest of the Allied to go with "We have Wizard and Demons and we are ready to use them".

Furthermore, that would put the court in an awkward position after the war. I mean, if the general population know about the existence of the court, but then they think they did nothing during the war, there is many last-hour resistance people who would have stored some shit against the Court for them looking like they didn't help in the war effort.

But for an actual evidence that the existence of the Court is secret, look no further than this. Jones didn't knew about the Court up until long after its creation. A clear indication that the court is not of public knowledge.

>>88237971

When you help in the war, you are either a secret, or a part of the propaganda machine.

>>88238509
She didn't.

it's the Nazi who killed Mort.

>>88238526
Those are pure cocks. None of the filthy parts touch her lips.

>>88238538
Jones was a Nazi?

>>88238549
No, she wasn't.

>>88238485
so we agree?

>>88238566
If she wasn't a Nazi then why did she murder Mort?

>>88238544
Even the doggie cocks she sucks behind the dumpsters at the bowling alley?

>>88238579
She didn't. The Nazi murdered Mort.

Okay, so Jones may or may not be a Nazi (it's unclear if she gave it up after they lost the war). Maybe she regretted killing Mort and that's why she stopped being a Nazi.

She didn't kill Mort. The Nazi are the one who killed him, not Jones.

The whole reason Germany acquired so much territory in World War 2 was because NO ONE WANTED TO TAKE SIDES.

Private institutions do not want to be seen as allied to any specific political faction because then their 'ally' expects their help and the other side treats them as an enemy.

>>88238485
sweatpants ARE sexy

>>88239070
I don't think the court had a branch in Germany, though.

>>88239134
"Germany" was a pretty big place at the time and it was heavily investing in research in the most cutting-edge scientific fields, there's no way the court didn't want a piece of that.

>>88239171
Ah, Germany couldn't even dream to reach what the Court was doing in its earlier day.

Tough, Hitler, even in real life actually had a look for the occult.

It's further reason for the Court to wish to remain secret.
