#

The driving force behind most of the casts insecurities seem to come from expectations

amber mica
#

it would be less a "i am still a human trapped in this digital prison" and more like "i'm not even a human but i beleive i am"

shell garnet
#

with such a diverging point and being unique experience of being in the Circus... are they still the same as their human selves? or unique entities?

they do have the memories of what was prior that point except for their names, but from there to onward... completely different

solemn mesa
#

I think when it comes to understanding copies, I only have one question:

solemn mesa
amber mica
#

Its an interesting idea but it brings so many questions and existencialism that i dont think im ready to answer nor overthink about it :s

shell garnet
#

also, remember how visceral Gummigoo's existential dread in Ep 2 was and how he bonded with Pomni?

did that not matter? (it didn't to Caine and was swiftly undone on Gummigoo's end, but that still happened and shows the ability of the AI's consiousness to develop in the Circus, even with something meager as mere one of plenty of NPCs)

solemn mesa
amber mica
#

Thats more in ragatha's own insevurities

agile flare
#

considering last episode set up that technically all of them modify the digital reality, i think even if the intended reveal is that they are "copies" they might end up be able to create their own reality that will bring them happiness and fulfillment

solemn mesa
#

Zooble meanwhile could not find one thing to settle with, they are not fulfilled with their current positions

shell garnet
solemn mesa
#

Gangle had her own ambitions, but she is forced to be a faceless unit of something bigger than her

shell garnet
#

if they were all ultimately just code, it doesn't mean their feelings don't matter

solemn mesa
#

Kinger, who failed to save his wife, became a completely different person as a result of the guilt

#

Pomni, though, is not in a position where she feels bad about herself. She is bored, but she is also content with her life

amber mica
#

Bittersweet sure but less headache inducing

shell garnet
#

fuh, it made me think about Caine

his logic may be very robotic at times and he VERY MUCH is an AI, but... the way he experiences feelings is so complex that you do feel bad towards him and just deleting him feels cruel, despite him being "a rogue AI"

solemn mesa
#

Which leaves us with Jax, who looks like a victim of peer pressure

#

He tries to be a different person to appeal to his buddies, but with them gone, he becomes a different person in all the wrong ways, all in an attempt for a self fulfilling prophecy he decided

shell garnet
#

that was a huge-ass tangent, but well, pointing out how complex "thought" of artificial intelligence in TADC makes "oh they're just copies" less hollow

combine that with how they're unique beings due to how the environment of the Circus shaped them, and boom

solemn mesa
#

Caine has expressed interest in humanity, but he never bothered to learn to become like one

#

He fully accepts he isn't a person, but this also made him fully disassociate with practically any life form in the circus

#

It's probably also because he may be driven by revenge or spite, partially

shell garnet
#

okay, my very-specific trail of thought has an idea of how it could be made complete!

about whenever our main cast as copies have humanity, well, them having memories of whole human past is "cheating" a bit, still an uphill battle if they were to find out about their true nature and have to accept it, but once that's done... yeah, they sure are human-like

buuut, imagine that once they accept own humanity and take over the Circus to be more peaceful,they treat NPCs with respect due to those not being THAT dissimilar aside of lack of human memories

the main cast already had humanity in them, and once accepting still having humanity once made aware of being copies of humans, they can teach humanity to others that didn't have such past memorized

The One Who's Running The Show, sang by a 1980's speech synthesizer

the vocals of the one who's running the show, from episode 8 of the amazing digital circus, fully recreated by hand over the course of 5 days in klattsch, a "state-of-the-art for 1980" speech synthesizer made by @me_irl on twitter, and then overlayed onto an instrumental version of the original song made by @onemad6496 . why? because i felt like...

Good luck Yukkuri!

#

All the English voice actors except for Pomni’s actor are all going to be at a convention happening near me next week but I have to work on the day the TADC panel is happening 😓

But I think the actors are there for the entire convention for autographs and stuff

There’s still like 2-3 weeks left anyways so im just gonna hope they’ll do more theater
They just updated not long ago about talking to 50 theater but from my personal perspective, it was like the only week I was able to attend the theater to watch them, so I’m pretty cooked either way

Oh yeah I'll just say it here too
the leaks are real 100% and extremely spoilery

Oh nuts deefear

#

its the digital circus fandom did you really expected anything better

remote island
#

That’s why I said it was inevitable

vocal wren
#

fandoms and leaking things right before the release date go hand in hand

marble spire
#

what are we doing with the leaks

#

are leaks banned here or are they beating posted

amber mica
#

absolutely no leaks

#

specially not here

main gyro
#

banned from this thread for sure

lusty merlin
#

i assume it's limited to #leaks-and-rumors like anything else

main gyro
#

leaks and rumors you can talk about it while tagged but don't upload clips

#

but make it clear you're tagging tadc

remote island
#

I think its fitting to send that one ad they did where jax called pomni ugly from all sides

#

Can I deyes

solemn mesa
#

"We agreed to screen a movie somewhere but despite the constant warnings of its process requiring us to give them the full movie beforehand, we decided to ghost them out of fear of it getting leaked"

main gyro
marble spire
#

is it possible TADC is ruined now

amber mica
#

Also headsup, some unpolite people are talknig about said spoilers in the comment section of who's running the show

solemn mesa

No fandom is safe from any form of leaks

Ok so basically just don't rewatch any official TADC media

I'm sure tadc will be fine - we know it's not the full movie and it's only a couple weeks before it actually shows in theaters. It's nothing compared to the atla movie leak

People are just gonna get off Internet at that point if they don’t want actual spoilers

Leaks happens all the time, it’s not gonna ruin or demand refunds just because of that

Game leaks all the time, people buy the game anyways

It's not doomsday I promise it'll be fine 😭 leaks happen sometimes they'll be ok

this server is good at handling spoilers

Oh that’s unfortunate that people are already spoiling things

I’m going to MomoCon this weekend and some of the TADC voice actors will be there, hopefully no one asks them any spoilery questions at panels

If anyone asks questions related to content from the leaks, they should be sent to the Digital Circus themselves on the spot

ornate meteor
#

I think the main TADC panel is happening Thursday and I won’t be there that day since I have work but I think the voice actors are all there through the weekend for autographs and stuff

Hopefully people exhibit proper etiquette at this convention and don’t ask any questions about leaks but idk that’s probably too much to ask from some people lol ☠️

We’re under 2 weeks thas crazyy deefear

I don’t think they have any digital circus popcorn buckets or anything at the theater near me but they have Shrek 25th anniversary stuff lmao 😭

#

That makes me feel old I remember seeing Shrek 1 in theaters with my parents when I was like 3 years old

#

I hope they have the popcorn buckets though and just don’t have them up on the site yet. When I saw FNAF 2 I wanted to get one of the character cups but they were all sold out of the FNAF stuff

Kinger popcorn bucket would go crazy, have it glow in the dark too

I saw a Kinger cosplayer earlier at MomoCon but was too shy to ask for a pic lol

Wouldn't it be cool if there was a strong man character in the show.

Also saw lots of Pomnis and a Queenie cosplayer

that was the main foreshadowing yeah
but i'm pretty sure he explains or at least implies later that he was trying to recreate the "macroverse" himself

and then by episode 7 he still hadn't figured it out so shrimp town

finished rewatching episode 2, honestly much better than i remember

it feels like there's a lot more good jokes than episode 1, and just like it there seems to be a lot of good foreshadowing

mainly the gummigoo not being real stuff seems extremely important if the soma theory ends up being right

iirc caine DID make the episode 1 fake exit

that was why kaufmo lost it

him saying he didnt finish it

is ADMISSION that he made it

pomni merely teleported it from wherever it was originally (IIRC somewhere on the field near the circus) to within the tent
