Welcome to Digimon Analyzer episode 6. This is MJ. I'm an author, I'm an artist, I'm in Digimon Analyzer.
You can find all my work at MJMunoz.com.
Join me as I talk about Digimon Liberator episode 3.
All four parts of it. This one was entitled Shrinking Violet. I think that's a little bit of a sarcastic title.
That girl was not shrinking. Maybe she was blooming. She was definitely glimmering, I think is what they said she was doing.
So, yeah, I'll get right to it. Overall, I'm going to say I enjoyed the episode.
The pacing of it was a little interesting.
And it was actually more of a...
like expository...
Yeah, it was more of an expository episode.
It allowed us to catch our breath and to get a little more context, to see a little bit more of Lacuna.
And... excuse me.
And learn a little bit more about the world building and the characters' mindsets, for example.
We learned that Teramon... well, I actually get to that in my notes.
So, let me just back up a bit. We get to see more of Lacuna.
And we get to see that the characters... the players, they're not characters, the players in the game...
can actually go and talk to the Game Masters who are available to speak with them.
Upon appointment or upon availability.
And that's something they can do. Apparently, you can go shopping in...
It's called... I think it's Jewel City.
Yeah, I think it's Jewel City, which is like this city center hub.
So if you've ever played any sort of...
Is that a duck? It's a goose.
Anyway, if you've ever played any sort of MMO, you have like your basic waiting area where there's...
items, armor, and items... I mean consumable items, of course.
Armor... I don't know. It's been a long time since I played anything, so I don't remember everything that you can get.
But just to put that, and then... oh, you can get missions.
And... or find quests.
And then interact with some NPCs, things like that, except for... I don't know if they're all...
Yeah, I guess if they're NPCs, they'd be the blue-headed...
blue... tug of a pen, the nabby ones.
Yeah, you can mess with friends just to hang out, and then...
disperse from there into the actual areas of the game.
Or the other, you know, broader areas of the game.
And it's interesting to see that, and to also learn in the beginning...
I know I'm just running out of stuff right now...
that... for whatever reason...
Arista and...
Choto have been hanging out in...
this first zone, this first area...
for months, I think. For three months, and Perowon has actually observed them...
for this whole time, as he's been flying around, taking care of his old world.
And... kind of interesting.
That's the way Leaves have thought.
So to focus in on my notes real quick, I want to talk about Violet Inboots, which is a crazy name.
Supposedly she was born in the States, or something.
Definitely out of Japan, but has come back in, and she's got rich parents who help her buy a bunch of stuff.
She's definitely the premium girl.
I find waifu to be a very ugly phrase or term or word.
It's just like, I want to abandon it. I don't want to use it.
It's not the kind of thing I'm into.
And, you know, I've got my own waifu at home, so I'm perfectly content in that part of the install.
I just kind of cringe when I like it.
I prefer to use the term premium girl, which is coined by, I believe, the character designer from Evangelion.
And it refers to characters like Raiden and Ami, who everybody loses their minds for.
And... yeah. It's a very interesting...
I don't want to get on a whole... I don't want to get on a whole...
I don't want to get on a whole distraction about white memes and white things in the culture or whatever.
But it's ironic that people evolve into Evangelion to give up that show.
And then years later, one of them said, like, stop, you know, objectifying our girls.
It's like, come on, you made me be a victim.
You aren't complaining.
You're crying into your pile of money from all the merch that the factors have bought based on the procreate that you've designed and the situations you put them into.
I watched Shibuya when I was in my two-year year, and...
I knew a little bit of literature like that.
We had a girl up in the piano and stuff.
But anyway, that's a whole different topic. It's not what we're talking about here.
Violet just screamed that she's a doctor. She's a neurocruster. She's got blonde hair. She's got crazy eyes.
She's not so gray, but she's like...
Somewhere in that arena, she's got aggressive archetype.
Maybe it's really American, which I fully understand and appreciate and accept as being true.
And, you know, I'm okay with that. I'm okay with that. Michael's one of the best Americans in the universe.
But, you know, Violet is crazy.
But it's also like Imbuts Violet.
I've seen Puss Mutes.
It's really good to be able to just do an older style, but also the way that the Japanese will name each Imbuts Violet.
And I've seen Imbuts, Imbuts, Imbuts.
I've seen the computer boots, the programming boots, the game.
What is a pun of the joke here?
Maybe it's just kind of a Puss Mutes type of reference.
You know, Puss Mutes is a toy mascot, a toy animation mascot.
I don't know exactly what it is, but it's just a question.
But I do like the character. She's more than just a big personality.
A big, pure personality is what I need to say.
And I like this weird, lovely thing that she has.
Even though she's a little coincided with Ousa.
And the folder was a lot of fun. You remember, we got a lot of like, best-of-the-best in a lot of lore.
And learning more about the lore, but we also learned this through the beta tester.
And we learned that this little piece references to the other side.
It's directed to the...
It's a little bit of a debug, but it's what it's called.
It's a little bit of an art-pigging movie. The paper, and the program. This is very confused, isn't it?
Okay, so it's kind of just a complete bug.
So if I go up here and click on card.com, hold tight.
Yeah, it needs to be a novel, and it needs to be a complete bug.
So we have to just keep that for about a couple of scenarios.
So yeah, she's a...
Hold on, I'm looking for the art here.
It actually doesn't look like she's...
I don't know, it's just a few of the numbers.
But definitely other characters appear in the manga are in the game as well.
Let me just look in the fair side.
There's a lot of chapters out already. Huh.
There's 1.1, 1.2, 2.1, 2.2.
Oh, there's chapter 1, 2, 3, 4, and even 4.
And they're all out, so that's pretty cool.
I'm a little bit checking that out, because it's caught up on the beta, and I'll just keep looking.
I'll just keep looking at the book as they release this thing.
As long as the book develops and stuff like that, we don't want to do that.
So...
I'm going to go through this stuff to get to that.
Unless you guys give me, like, 2000 subscribers and stuff to do to it.
I'll do it.
But anyway.
It tells us she was one of the people that did the experiments.
But she wasn't actually, I guess she was not actually the people that...
...that were involved in the novel.
Which is kind of more interesting, because it means that she's...
...in that early beta being involved to itself and...
...being interested in those characters, but it's kind of off to their own universe or...
...universe, which is probably a great way to do it.
And we can be more interested in checking out the novel.
And I'm sorry, but you should be doing it if you want to be successful, you know?
Get on the indie world and give it a good lot of points, of course.
So anyway.
Yeah.
She's pretty cool, and I like how she's, like, personally friendly and wants to fight...
...wants to fight Iris at the end for...
...I didn't just do this one for Shuman, because she's this collector.
Like, her parents are really just going to help her get a lot of different cards or whatever.
And that's kind of interesting.
So I wonder how old she is.
She's sort of like 70, and obviously we know that she has a lot of parents and...
...having them playing with her.
And yeah, so we're going to get to see Coolboy.
I have no idea who Coolboy is, but there's some sort of reference to him somewhere.
He's from somewhere else in the game.
I don't know if he's a card character, card game character, or where he is, whatever.
But it's just kind of funny how they drop that reference when they make him.
Like, he's a big character, and like, he's a little ridiculous, but also fun.
He's one of the GMs, the game masters.
And I like how he won them, he loses the player status, and that seems to be the sixth so far in this game.
Although, or in the story, although it doesn't seem like enough.
But I think we're going to find out that there's more going on here, that this isn't just a game.
And part of what relates to that is Taramond saying that, like, this is the real world.
This is his real world, this is the digital world.
But Coolboy isn't run by humans, it's run by video games, or whatever.
And Chirara has to wait, and like, no, that's actually not true.
It is a game, your world is a game that we're playing, and it's run by humans, and that's just how it is in Taramond.
Like, why are we talking about all this simulation, bro?
Like, that's not how it is, it's fake news.
And I'm like, I want to know what's going on with that, and I'm really interested to see that expand upon and explored in the future,
because it's an interesting concept, and I'm just interested to see what's happening.
So there's been no story developments here, but there's personal developments,
and there's some world-building stuff going on, and I'm definitely interested in those things, as they are right now.
I guess the next episode, which is going to be called Fable of Wolves,
is all going to be a battle between Marisa and your girl Violet,
and Violet's got a new Ghost Inquisitor, and I kind of suspect that she also has a new Wild Inquisitor that she's sticking to her dick,
but I don't think there's a Ghost Inquisitor, I think it's something else,
because she referenced a Wild Inquisitor, and I wouldn't be shocked if she had captured one or encountered one herself.
Like, she's got like, her main character's dick design, you'd think she would have gotten one of those,
or maybe she would have got one afterwards, or I don't know, but we will see.
I kind of thought she had the ink moniker, which I still think she has the ink moniker, because it shows her dick when there's a dick.
Do you know what the else moniker really is?
Yeah, so that is one for you guys to figure out.
And, yeah.
Anyway, I'm interested to see what goes on in the game, what's going on.
I want to say the story, but it's not really a story, but it's also not a story, but it's soft, so...
Yeah, yeah. I'll make some, take care, be well.
