Thread: Yumekui Merry

  1. #41
    No praise for Yumeji? I personally find Yumeji to be an awesome male lead. This guy really has some backbone, his conviction to help a stranger get back home in his no-emo, upbeat attitude. And the courage to carry it through despite some intense situations, unlike another lead this season ....*Ahem*Madoka*Ahem*.

    As for the show, the story hasn't really hooked me yet, but its getting better. I can see a lot of plot lines converging, Treesea, lighthouse demon, John Doe, Mysterious transfer student, rice eating sensei, pre-amnesia Merry, Play and someone else mentioned poem dude as well. So far these threads are independently building up, but I feel that DEM will start getting awesome once these threads start to interweave. I for one will definitely be tagging along for the ride to see what happens. Just seeing the interaction between Yumeji and Merry, that in itself is well worth the time invested.

    True enough. I just never pay much attention to Yumeji really. There're are much more interesting characters around that steal the spotlight - such that the focus isn't even on him anymore.

    Asshole Sensei. Treesea's not only a sadist towards dream demons, but humans too. Her actions are seemingly pointless overall other than to satisfy her killing pleasure (creating dreams, planting demons into a vessel after such a dream is created, crushing it completely after it happens).

    From memory, the Literacy Club president didn't become a walking zombie after having her Demon "sent back" by Merry, so something about her method of "killing" is definitely different from Play's

    I've been suspecting that Teacher since episode 1.

    Yeah, he became increasingly suspicious alongside his increasing interest in dreams.

    Yumeji really needs to make some decisions and come up with something. Merry's willpower doesn't seem overly steadfast so he needs to give her (back) a dream, not only listen to the words of their enemies. In that sense Isana getting targeted and infected couldn't have happened at a better time. That will force his hand.

    I'm far from sure Yumeji still has actually reached a decision. I fear he plans simply to face the demon and... well, hope for a miracle. But since the preview suggests Treesea will move soon, I'm pleased simply by the prospect they will be forced to do something or lose Isana in any case. If inaction means a defeat, then they might as well try.

    What comes to this episode, I hated how Yumeji, from an outside observer's pov, behaved like somebody trying to make the last moments of a dying patient as comfortable as possible. I suppose that was a natural thing to do - if you believe there are no chances.

    Here I was thinking Elcres was going to turn out to be a good guy to help them kill Treesea when they needed it. He's just like her, only not a sadist.

    That makes 2 bosses..

    The only thing Yumeji can do is give Merry the confidence that it's alright to 'send them back'. Or act as a human shield.

    I'm not yet convinced we have seen all of Yumiji's powers or that Merry can't do fancier tricks again, like she did after Yumeji had been wounded. Not all shows need to be tainted by shounen power-ups, of course, but we simply still know very little.

    Episode was annoying. I would've flattened that teacher straight up once we left the dream world. Not to mention I hate how anime take liberty with damage. One punch, a kick and getting pulled down disables Merry the whole time as she just laid there.

    It definitely felt like they thought "Crap, we need another episode, so let's fight another day!"

    The animation was choppy and horrible, especially the fight scene.

    The most annoying part was that it looked like Merry was trying to fight for the hat instead of for Isana.

    And yeah.. just kill the vessel. I rather like that idea. I also like where the teacher was heading with Treesea :P.

    What I did like (like, really really like) was that Isana's still fine for now.

    Merry could easily flatten that vessel in real life. Yumeji does not even need to do anything.
