I wonder, in Mirai Nikki's logic, how is the phone considered broken/destroyed?

If I detach it, take out sim card, and battery. What will happen?

Better cut your fingernails too, scratches can be life-threatening, judging from a certain scroll

Hiroi Sekai · 2011-12-13, 02:24

I'd imagine it'd have to be broken beyond the point where it could be fixed. Should've bought that extended warranty.

without a doubt though episode 5 was the best with # 5 and #12.

Malkuth · 2011-12-14, 22:05

Totally agreed, aesthetically and storytelling-wise it was excellent... BUT that does not lessen the fact that the overall story composition is a big joke sold to middle/high-school kids

You saw it too?! I was hoping to see some Makoto and Miura chaos somewhere this episode!!

Yep, that Minene bit was a Mosaic chapter.

It was also shown in the omake that 3rd never really got the concept that if his phone was destroyed he would die. Apparently he just couldn't wrap his mind around the idea. So in fact it all does make sense that that is the way he would die.

The 3rds stuff is an example of where Esuno was going further than just theme-naming the characters after Roman deities. He seems to have started with theme-naming, and then filled in some of the character attributes in ways that loosely draw on their namesakes.

For Yukiteru this is why his character is a dart-thrower: he's named after Jupiter, who's analogous to Zeus, who amongst other things was known for throwing lightning bolts like javelins, which Esuno translated into dart-throwing.

The 3rd is named after Vulcan, analogous to the Greek Hephaestus, whose main attributes are being a ugly/disfigured, lame/crippled, and a master engineer/craftsman. Esuno seems to have translated those attributes as "ugly => wears a mask and disguise", "lame => really very stupid", and the "engineer => heavy-duty body armor".

There's plenty more of this kind of thing in Mirai Nikki, and it's part of why I like it so much: on the one hand it's a very fun, very trashy, very pulpy bit of adventure; on the other hand it has lots of eater eggs hidden away if you enjoy finding that kind of thing.

FWIW it seems like Esuno started backing away from the Roman-deity stuff as the story kept going (aside from the theme-naming). The earlier arcs have much, much more of it than the later arcs.

In any case, about Yuno digging that hole: I'm pretty sure right around here is where Esuno changed his mind about how ambitious a story he was going to try and tell. Once it isn't a spoiler I'll explain what I mean, or you can PM me if you want to know now.

ookamigirl · 2011-12-15, 13:14

Uryuu sure is an interesting one.
Pretty twisted & dangerous.
Yuukki and Yuno at a marriage fest LOL, but kinda sweet too.

Interesting on the Roman / Greek God pairing there.

Dear, sir, you don't have any idea how that explanation puts a smile on my face.

If I had to be honest, I enjoyed more Minene's backstory from her first skirmish with 3rd, and Murumuru's this week's edition about getting a new hairstyle for Minene.

Minene's so badass, and there's clear and thin line drawn between being badass and being psychotic like Yuno is.

As for the Yuki*Yuno wedding fun rehearsal, I would have enjoyed more the dish had Yuno snapped in one of her classy and glorious schizophrenic over a trivial things such as: killing the lady that didn't allow her to the fitting room, or better yet, putting the psycho eye on Yuki at the rehearsal in obvious expectance for her to have him say "YES" to fulfill the wedding oath, though this was rehearsed not real.

Unknown Soldier · 2011-12-16, 00:53

The anime OP names all the Greco-Roman gods the diary holders are associated with at the beginning.

Do yourself a favor and do NOT count the number of gods named, as that itself is a huge spoiler. The OP actually contains a number of spoilers in it like that.

miroku2192 · 2011-12-16, 08:25

^Isn't that in itself a spoiler in a sense? lawl

miketyson · 2011-12-18, 14:48

The one thing I don't agree with from the official list is that the official list tries to pair up the 6th with Apollo. I mean, if that's official that's official, but she's seemingly *very much* designed as a reference to Proserpina (Greek: Persephone), and I'm left scratching my head over the "Apollo" claim.

DezoPenguin Beta by Accident Author Join Date: Oct 2008 Location: Maine Age: 52	Spoiler for Ep. 10: I wonder...if Yuno was originally digging the hole to dispose of the bodies, and her mind snapped so that she forgot that the bodies were there and that Yuki had never seen them, what, exactly did she do with them? Since if she forgot that they were there (i.e. "why she was digging the hole"), then... ahh, darned plot holes. Now and again this show uses "holy crap, that was just crazy/awesome/cool/plain whacked out" as spackle to get past those points, but that's okay, since adrenaline and shock therapy are its usual methods of interacting with the audience. If I wanted heavy symbolism and plotting where every little thing means something significant, I'd just wait around for Un-Go. I don't remember the scene with Minene from the manga, so I wonder if it was another of those bits from Mosaic that's been added in, like the ones earlier in the series? In any case, it was nice to see another side of her (and also nice, in its way, to see Third as something other than a complete clown; I wonder how his Murder Diary gave him the ability to evade bullets and explosives (perhaps by giving him moment-by-moment updates on the actions of his victims...although that should have worked on Yukki's dart as well), or if he was just wearing body armor and so on in his weird Serial Killer Suit (which would have been all right for Ep. 1, since he was carrying his phone out in the open there like a complete numbnut)? Happy day for Yuno at the bridal fair, and good callback to when Yukki opened the door and saw the bodies (very good callback to a manga spoiler, but I digress). __________________ RadiantBeam's Complete Index to the Shadowverse

I mean, if that's official that's official, but she's seemingly very much designed as a reference to Proserpina (Greek: Persephone), and I'm left scratching my head over the "Apollo" claim. Ep 11: Spoiler for ep 11 details: I feel like the anime did a good-but-not-great job adapting the material. In particular, the 4th's explanations of his motivations make more sense than I remember from the manga. I'm not sure if it's b/c hte dialog is edited or it's just having some inflection, but I actually get it this time around (he needs allies that might actually win; 1st and 2nd are no good b/c they aren't serious about winning...). I strongly disagree with one of the directorial decisions this time: this episode we see Yuno go into a visually-distinct "crazy mode", and imho this is a bad move. I'd prefer she be harder to read, and I really hope the show doesn't stick with this "crazy mode" thing for much longer. It's also the first episode for which I'd prefer they cut the omake. The reason is b/c the show's mood is like "serious, serious, goofy-ladder-scene, serious", and the goofy scene feels too rushed. Given a few more minutes it could've transitioned into and out of the goofiness more smoothly. So overall verdict: not the best episode of the series, but still a solid adaption of the source material.
