DO REVENGE (2022)

“Just friends at that’s all?” “Yep”

“Oh, and what did you said?” “I said okay, fantastic”

“Okay fantastic? What’s the matter with you guys? I’ll never understand you two”

nemesisadraste: Emotions aren’t rationnal. Even when they have to devirtualise themself but “killing” each other (unless is for saving someone from the virtual sea) they have to plan it out to fell good about it.

I know. I was more poking fun at the fact that Ulrich and Yumi get so caught up in things here they seem to forget the other will be fine haha. Or they seem to care so much it doesn’t matter that the other will be fine. There are some episodes they react with reason, like in Saint Valentine’s Day when Yumi slips through Ulrich’s grasp and they’re not sure if Jeremie’s going to devirtualize her before she hits the digital sea, or in Franz Hopper, when XANA bugs up the program so devirtualization = death and Ulrich gets hit and both Yumi and Odd cry out because they don’t know that Jeremie fixed the program in time. But in Guided Missiles and Kadic Bombshell there’s no ‘serious’ reason for it.

In the earlier episodes, Ulrich and Yumi don’t react at all to seeing the other non-lethally devirtualized. It’s near the end of season 2 into season 3 that Ulrich starts showing Yumi’s general devirtualization bothers him, like in The Key. He’s holding Yumi’s hand as they’re both hanging off a ledge, and when she’s devirtualized he actually reaches for her hand as it disappears (and her fingers seem to reach for him too). Then his hand curls into a tight fist.

In Straight to Heart, Yumi’s devirtualized, and Ulrich turns and shouts her name, and Odd has to scold him because Yumi’s virtual death is distracting Ulrich that much.

“Forget it! Concentrate on our monster friends!”

In William Returns, Yumi cries Ulrich’s name after he’s blown up by a mine (that sounds really violent written out jfc). I hate to keep referencing Ulrich, but he’s the one who shows it bothers him the most, like in Opening Act, William takes Yumi out and Ulrich growls, “If you’re trying to get a date with Yumi, I’m not so sure that’s the right way.” Or in Distant Memory, similar to The Key, Ulrich immediately notices Yumi’s been devirtualized, and he glances back, glaring.

Then in Guided Missiles and Kadic Bombshell you’ve got the shouted “No!” from Ulrich and Yumi respectively when they see William ‘kill’ the other.

Chapter 3 was amazing. By far, the best one. All the lore elements, graphics, characters interactions, locations... everything was insanely good.

Being honest, The thing I enjoyed the most was Poppy and Kissy Missy's scenes. Since chapter one, I always liked the theory about them being like a kind of a family with Huggy. Maybe, the people they use to give them life were related (parents and daughter) anyway, I loved the fact that Kissy wasn't bad or wanted to kill us like Mommy, Huggy or CatNap. She was patient and sensitive about the situation and put Poppy's desires first for destroying 1006. She was a mother figure for the doll all the chapter. Now makes sense that Kissy didn't try to attack us during c2 when we first found her out. Everyone suspected that Poppy and her had that kind of mother-daughter relationship. Maybe Poppy told her to help us and not hurt us. It makes sense.

AND about the end of the chapter... I'm not gonna lose the hope about Kissy being alive. We know, since c2, that Huggy's still alive and that we will see him again at some point. Is it possible that he saved her? I bloody wished he did. We see practically nothing about Kissy and her interactions with Poppy. And, with Poppy's personality and the possibility of her not being a traitor and really needing us, the fact that she CRIED her name when she heard her being attacked... it was painful.
