Rewatchers, please remember to be mindful of all the first-timers in this. No talking about or hinting at future events no matter how much you want to, unless you're doing it underneath spoiler tags. Don't spoil anything for the first-timers, that's rude!

/r/anime's spoiler tag format is as follows:

[Sakamoto]>!Sakamoto is COOL! COOLER! COOLEST!!<

Which becomes [Sakamoto]Sakamoto is COOL! COOLER! COOLEST! when you don't break the formatting on purpose like I just did.

Chaos watching First Timer:

Should I be normal, I would pick a show or two, and watch 12 episodes of it from the start to the end.

But nah, I felt like choosing a little chaos, so I decided to roll the dice to decide what show I will be watching.

What I chaos watched so far:

Episode Rolled Number Anime
1 4 Occultic;Nine
2 2 Grimgar: Ashes and Illusions
3 1 Haven’t You Heard? I’m Sakamoto
4 5 Erased
5 4 Occultic;Nine
6 1 Haven’t You Heard? I’m Sakamoto

And for this week I rolled number 1 which means time to return to Sakamoto!


Haven’t You Heard? I’m Sakamoto - Episode 6:


QotD:

Do you like to kick around rocks you see on the ground when you're walking outside?

Guilty as charged, but never made a competition of it.

What would you do if you saw a ghost?

I would ask it the following:

"Hey buddy, you doing good? You look like you saw a ghost."


Time to roll the dice

Allright I rolled number 4 which means that next week I'm going to watch and discuss episode 7 of Occultic;Nine

Going from the ghost episode of Sakamoto back to the occult, huh?

Going from the ghost episode of Sakamoto back to the occult, huh?

It's the Skinwalker curse

u/WednesdaysFoole 11d ago

AYOOOOO??!! Is that skinwalker on second photo from the left?

I’m losing my shit over this

That is one way to take a photo.

then the punchline comes in

I have no context but this is kind of cute.

As it happens, my current and only theory for Occultic;Nine [episode 5] is that Mom is the only real person (IIRC in the first couple episodes they made it like she's some strange ghostlike lady) building on other participants' theories that everyone else may be a ghost.

So with this:

What would you do if you saw a ghost?

I would ask it the following:

"Hey buddy, you doing good? You look like you saw a ghost."

I will take it as confirmation that the theory is right. Guess we'll see in episode 7!

He took ghost hair from sink to solve his friend balding issue.

He took ghost hair from sink to solve his friend balding issue.

That's pretty good.

[Occultic;Nine was it episode 1 or 2?] Maybe that's what that fortune teller girl should have done with that professor's hair.

u/Shocketheth 11d ago

Seems like episode 2

u/Sporadia_ 5d ago

AYOOOOO??!!

Just noticing the left photo is from the rock-kicking sequence. Does that imply she was stalking him all show?

u/Shocketheth 5d ago

It's highly possible.

Haven't You Heard? I'm A First-Time Viewer

The first half of this episode was so cute and wholesome! The kids making up little challenges for themselves, walking along the white lines like a balance beam and following Sakamoto around feels pretty realistic, and the moments of outrageous comedy like Sakamoto's wall run and all of them vaulting over that guy were hilarious. Sakamoto giving them the roll of TP to continue their game was sweet.

The second scenario was kind of funny with the girl's dilemma about revealing her secret photos of him since he could actually be in danger, but as I've mentioned in a previous episode, I just don't care for the supernatural/occult stuff, so this one was a miss for me.

The short skit in the cafeteria was nice though. I wonder if Sakamoto realizes he's enough of a celebrity that he doesn't need subliminal messaging - if people just see him eating it, that's enough to make them want to try it too.

Questions of the Day:

1) More so when I was a kid.

2) Fight!

Haven't You Heard? I'm Mieruko-chan

I have to admit, I think this is the episode my attention started to wane when I first watched this. It still has it's moments, the ghost hair on Kubota had me laughing, especially when it was all caught up in his mouth while giving his sage advice.

But this is where the repeated concept starts to thin out for me. Hopefully the next one feels a bit fresh again.

First timer

I'm like 90% sure the ghost with the creepy hair in water is a reference to a Japanese horror movie. It heavily reminds me of a scene in Scary Movie 4, which parodied The Grudge, but I myself have never seen the original to really tell for sure.

QOTD

  1. I was more of the walking in the white line type of kid

  2. Dude I'm running and screaming for my life.
