[Erased] No ok, spoilers up to ep 8. I must scream into the void. ETA: EP 12 NOW

1. I suspect the teacher. LIKE. I MEAN. TO BE FAIR, by now he's the only obvious suspect so it's kind of obvious. But to my credit I suspected him as soon as he was introduced, and when he shared a birthday with Kayo I was like "lol ok it's this dude for sure"
bladeosaurus
I will be Very Surprised if it's not him
bladeosaurus
bc there's no one else
baby gremlin
No one suspects the 4th grader. The perfect cover.
bladeosaurus
PLOT TWIST: IT WAS ACTUALLY THE MEAN GIRL IN CLASS
bladeosaurus
I'm very set on teacher, also bc mom Knows Who It Is and we know it's not the Yuuki dude.
bladeosaurus
and also bc he's so full of shit about him contacting the authorities. Like, he knows this girl is getting abused regularly and it takes a second grader to go "uuuh, sensei" for him to be like "yah im ttly on top of it"
bladeosaurus
this is all very butterfly effect meets umineko
bladeosaurus
mom is a badass and it's so refreshing to have an adult who actually helps
bladeosaurus
i'm a little wary of how it'll end bc it's so easy to go butterfly effect alternate ending where dude kills himself in the womb or something
bladeosaurus
sitting here going "pls dont suck"
bladeosaurus
also looking forward to this dude killing A Different Child instead bc Satoru can't catch a break
bladeosaurus
"your heroic efforts just couldn't end in tragedy" is very Hannibal Lecter of sensei
bladeosaurus
CHILD PLS STOP GIVING INFO TO MURDERER
bladeosaurus
29 year old child
bladeosaurus
WOULD ANYONE STILL THINK IT'S NOT THE TEACHER BY EP 9??
bladeosaurus
The stack of candy just fell out and he's like AHAHA. HAHA. HA. YOU SEE I USED TO BE A SMOKER
bladeosaurus
no stock of candy to lure children with nooooo siiiiir
bladeosaurus
it's gonna be fun when I'm wrong and it's actually Mr. Only On Screen For 20 seconds and I lose all my Willard cred.
bladeosaurus
but no I firmly believe this teacher loves to murder 11 year olds. Possibly something traumatic happened to him at 11??? but idk I don't really care about the Murderer Backstory.
bladeosaurus
(gonna go split work files bbs)
MOVING
i personally def thought he was a red herring when the candy came out
MOVING
like. for real
bladeosaurus
I MEAN I am absolutely convinced it's him, bc if it were anyone else at this point, the reveal would be weird and unsatisfying.
bladeosaurus
My friends like it so it's gotta be him.
bladeosaurus
also Satoru was like "HE IS THE CLOSEST THING I HAVE TO A FATHER" earlier, so BETRAYAL is a thing that will happen. Satoru gets to have 0 good things.
PHONY
the stack of candy lmao
PHONY
also yes, mom is so good..... love mom
bladeosaurus
she's so good
PHONY
i get upset every time i think she's dead
bladeosaurus
I also really like blond observant child
PHONY
he's good
PHONY
tiny detective
bladeosaurus
man how crazy it must be for this dude to have this 11 year old child zero in on all of his victims
bladeosaurus
I actually thought the first victim would change from Kayo to mean bully after Satori called her out and that didn't happen.
bladeosaurus
But I think it might happen now.
bladeosaurus
SATORU PLS YOU'RE SO CLOSE "IT MUST BE SOMEONE MOM KNEW" "JUST LIKE MR. YASHIRO, THE KILLER MUST BE LOOKING FOR A SUBSTITUTE"
bladeosaurus
bunch of 11 year olds: Mr. Yashiro is giving us a ride.
bladeosaurus
that's creepy. That's creepy behavior right there
bladeosaurus
LMAO THE SEATBELT GETS STUCK. HOW MYSTERIOUS
bladeosaurus
WHY WOULD THIS HAPPEN
bladeosaurus
this is all very chekhov's gun
bladeosaurus
"good deeds and evil deeds are essentially the same" he says
bladeosaurus
AHHHH REVEAL
bladeosaurus
YESSSSSS
bladeosaurus
bladeosaurus

bladeosaurus

baby gremlin
OH IM GLAD
baby gremlin
originally the current timeline has whole separate arc after the coma in the manga, but the anime didnt have the episodes for that. I thought this was good compromise because the Kayo stuff was so important, it'll be bad to rush through that fit as much in there in
bladeosaurus
I will likely check the manga and drama after bc i liked it a lot
