Wait, what?
Why is Japan playing CoC?

Where did you find this? And are they using CoC as a sex roleplay game? You know, tentacles. . .

Old Squiddy is the green haired one? Going from the wiki I thought it was the spider god Atlach-Nacha.

Sorry to burst the bubble guys, but this series is as shallow as you might think.

Sadly the whole eldritch aspect is never really explored, and the whole Cthulhu mythos just got degraded to "a bunch of aliens with Cthulhu reference". Yes, nya-chan is from some random space defense department, being send here to protect the earth from bad aliens, with a side-objective of getting into MC's pants, just because.

Its quite sad really, the premise could be some mind fucking awesome SAN lost plot combine with conventional moe slice of life.

And here I thought I could see a Saya no Uto Lite. (The original sends me into a crushing depression, I would never touch it again.)

That being said, if you want something that you can just shut down your mind and watch, this will suit you fine, assuming you can tolerant the cringe-worth plot.

>>18641357
They have some of their own games, some of which are strange to Western eyes. But like, Maid, that's from a Japanese designer (it's intended to be a joke). He did another game about playing Japanese folklore spirits like tanuki, etc.

Also Sword World, which is like the Japanese D&D. There's a translation project on /tg/ but it's pretty much one guy at this point, which is sad.

Replays are A Thing there. I'm not sure why.

>>18641328
>cute moeshit
>any of those

All three of those are some of the darkest stories you will ever experience.

>>18641295
So it is as I suspected.
Namesdropping and generic BS.
Well, keep calm and carry on with the better shows of the season.

I can't believe how many people don't realize that Nyaruko-san is a monster and that their brain is just projecting an image in its place so their mind and eyes don't go insane and burst into flames respectively.

Now, to ask a question, is the anime already out yet? I see these images and wonder.

>>18641379
I know Japan has their own games.
Replays are how RPGs generally get exposure over there. People don't so much fawn over the system as they do read the events of other people's sessions, probably to get a feel for things and whatnot. They're basically published versions of /tg/'s storytimes.

>>18641396
Oh damn, Perfidious Nippon actually skimmed through the books before they blatantly ripped off a theme from a Western book series and convert it to moeshit. Interesting. In any case, I've wanted to try CoC but I don't know where to start with the Cthulhu mythos after reading the actual Call of Cthulhu. Help?

>>18641443
Yeah, because they also publish like, replays. Replay this yourself. That's so weird to me.

Trail of Cthulhu is a respectable alternative too.

Also Delta Green is a supplement for CoC and it's pretty much the best game ever but it'll get a standalone book soon so you might want to wait for that.

Number 1 is Warham Fantasy 2nd-ed, 2nd is Sword World, 3rd is Night Wizard, 4th is D&D 4th and 5th is CoC.

God, I'd love to play with an RPG group in Japan. I'd shame, terrify and disturb them with my Western gaijin powers of understanding a nonlinear story.

>>18640922
Okay, my google-fu failed me, link to their site or something?

Broskander is actually one of the kinda-sorta protagonists.
He's the spirit of Alexander the Great, summoned up to fight in a war with the spirits of other great heroes for control of the Holy Grail.
He can literally summon up the spirits of his entire fucking army by sheer force of his broitude.
He spends his spare time plotting world domination and playing videogames.

Fate/Zero has a dude who fires anti-magic bullets made from his own powdered fucking ribs out of a Thompson Center Contender (a single shot pistol) chambered in .30-06.
It is NOT moeshit. At all.

>>18641515

Thank you for explaining the obvious.

Share and Perfect Dark are p2p filesharing services that are popular in Japan. Setting the clients up can be kind of a pain, they're not particularly well-documented in English, and you'll need to be able to read Japanese to search through them, but if you're curious, you should find enough info by googling them to help you get them set up.

>What could it be compared to?
Haruhi Suzumiya. (Not as good.)

Nyarlathotep is moe

how is this possible

rolled 16 = 16

>>18642944
Just judging by the 1st episodes (which is the only episode I ever watched with Haruhi) Haiyore!Nyaruko is waaaaaaaay better.

At the very least I'm watching episode 2 of this series. Haruhi was just boring as all get out.

>>18642975
They have the same "awesome premise, now let's ignore it as long as possible to focus on the stereotypical antics and romances of our stereotypical anime characters" vibe. We'll see if Nyaruko can get over it.

>Sadly the whole eldritch aspect is never really explored, and the whole Cthulhu mythos just got degraded to "a bunch of aliens with Cthulhu reference". Yes, nya-chan is from some random space defense department, being send here to protect the earth from bad aliens, with a side-objective of getting into MC's pants, just because.

You mean the Nips are taking characters from Western culture and slapping their names on generic animu girls who don't actually have anything to do with their namesakes?

Shocking!

Nyarlathotep and her friends Cthugha and Hastur

>>18644435
Cthuga is out of place..but this could be oddly fitting for Hastur and Nyarly.

>>18644155
To be fair, Saber probably has a lot more in common with King Arthur than Nyarko has in common with Nyarlathotep.

>>18644155
Are you using "generic" to mean "shit I don't like"?

>>18644464

She carries a straight sword instead of a katana. That's pretty much it.

>>18644464
One does have the handicap of being utterly incomprehensible to the human mind, you must admit.

So wait, an eldricht entity plays call of cuthulu?

>>18644494
...And actually is a former ruler, *and* there's actually some attempt to explain the gender issue, and is supposed to actually BE English.

>>18644498
This, however, is fair enough.

>>18644464
It's already well-established that Nasu fucks heavily with mythology. Like Rider's true identity, neither her nor her sisters have their trademark hair.

>>18644490

Nope, just generic. As in "interchangeable with every other passive, traditional, idealized love-interest animu girl."

>>18644536

>>18644865
You say that now...

>>18644577
...Wasn't the Berserker in /Extra Arc? Isn't that cheating a bit?

>>18645145
That was the second Berserker, regular is Lu Bu.

After having watched the first episode, I really think the moeshit crowd ain't really letting the actual message of the episodes get to them.

Lets watch what happens.

>>Monster Attacks
Moe girls kills it hard with hands
>>Monster Attacks
Moe girls kills it with a tramatically with a rock using 'space cqc'
>>Moe girl goes on shopping date with boy
reveals to boy that earth is only important as a source of perverse 'entertainment' for alients
>>Moe girl explains plot (and breaks the 4th wall)
Space police is a surprisingly good way of describing the cthulhu 'factions'.
>>Moe girls blatently tries to sex up the boy
cause the horror is that it really is an eldritch abomination

I really don't think the series is mangling the mythos any worst then half the writters that actually write for the series do. Anytime something moe comes on just imagine what temporary insanity actually would look like.

I'll keep watching it, Need my some milf cthulhu

>>18645313
Don't forget her terrifying weapon.

>>18645313
>I really don't think the series is mangling the mythos any worst then half the writters that actually write for the series do
You're making the mistake of thinking that the people who are complaining have actually read Lovecraft. This series is no worse than the travesties of Derleth, or Cthulhu for President bumper stickers, without which they probably wouldn't even know the name "Lovecraft." At least Nyaruko acknowledges itself as an intentional humorous parody, rather than being the end-result of people trying to piggyback on Lovecraft's status as a cult-figure by attempting to emulate a dead writer and slip their fanfiction into his canon universe.

>>18640699
ctrl+w

God damn I hate Japan.

>>18645527
Yah, no western nation would dare parody or otherwise disrespect Lovecraft's works.

If the me from a year ago saw this, he probably would be frothing at the mouth in a holier-than-thou, and then would try to murder me for approving and watching it. All the while screaming something along the lines of "weeaboo traitor filth"

>>18645564
Fuuny, after that episode came out all the clods I know thought Cthulhu was from South Park.

>>18645570
So you were an idiot a year ago, is what you are saying?

>>18645564
They actually did stuff pretty well in that episode. Even got the IA IA Cthulhu FHTAGHN stuff right.

>>18645527
Now how cold you hate a face like that?

surely the joke is going to eventually be that nyarlathotep is just fucking with the guy and theres actually no space police or anything
right?

So what is this? Saya no Uta with no despair or madness?

>>Implying Madoka moecuteshit

>>18651530
That's just it, though. Japan cannot into plots deeper than the surface without turning it into a massive quagmire of contradictory bullshit.

>>18651545
Welcome to real life.

Contradiction and the resolution of contradiction is ingrained into Japanese culture the way "good guy always wins" is ingrained into western culture.

>>18651539
>How will they turn a giant fireball into a girl.
see >>18641929

>>18651549
But there's never a resolution, it's just utter nonsense.

>>18651553
Oh. OH. DELICIOUS. Downloading now.

>>18651554
Also the good guys are retarded good guys usually, hope you like your whole culture simplified.

>>18651568
Also, from what I can tell from the OP, Cthuga's got a massive lesbo crush on Nylarthotep, and Hastur is a trap.

>>18651572
What I'd like is shit that's a little less lolrandom.

I just watched the first episode.

It's ACTUALLY pretty good and the right proper combination of cute and insane that's the only thing that can still make me do sanity checks. - I.E. mostly cute on the surface with hints of insanity sticking out here and there.

>>18651539
There's also going to be Shantak and Antlach-Nacha. God, I love Japan for making shit like this. They're only country I can think of collectively insane enough to come up with, create and actually make popular this kind of thing.

>Turn Lovecraftian deities into lolis and moe
Dunno if I should RAGE or not, got me interested through weird-ass idea though

Okay, might as well ask.
Are there any serious SAN loss?

>>18651579
>Hastur
>A trap
Wonderful. Simply wonderful. This shall be glorious.
>>18651593
>Shantak
Aren't they a race and not a god?
>Atlach-Nacha
Please be a MILF for that transfer Nurse character that go Ara ara~ and trap young boy in her room.

>>18651599
Watching Nylarthotep murder enemy aliens in the most gruesome way imaginable and enjoying every single fucking moment of it.

Oh, and her cooking is apparently very good, but you don't want to fucking know what's in it.

>>18651607
Shantak is literally Nylarthotep's pet, which she tries to use (unsuccessfully) as a pokemon.

>>18651608
>Watching Nylarthotep murder enemy aliens in the most gruesome way imaginable and enjoying every single fucking moment of it.
>good cooking with horrible SANs loss ingredients

Ohhh yeah, I think Im gonna like this

This better have mindfuckery in it, since its based from CoC

>>18651616
Oh I thought they turn Shantak into little girls too. This is fine too I guess.

>>18651276

Considering the main character has said several times because of narly's actions.

>>Are you sure your not with the criminal group

I think its coming and will be no surprise to anyone

>>18651456

I thought the loli in yellow was surposed to be hastur but i may be mistaken

>>18651607
>Aren't they a race and not a god?
Well in the anime, Nyarlathotep herself is part of a Nyarly (or whatever it was) alien specie, not an individual being. So, you know, fuck the lore.

>>18651645
The kid in yellow is supposed to hastur. It's not immediately clear what his/her gender is, but what I hear from the novelfags is that he's a trap.

>>18651649
>Nyarly (or whatever it was) alien specie
HAHAHA THIS CAN ONLY END WELL.

>>18651607
According to the background, they're basing her character design after a character from a VN inspired by the A-N story and an old Japanese myth about spiderdemons that transform into seductive women and eat the unwary.

She's going to look like this.

I swear it's like christmas in April.

>>18651524
Also, Yog-Sothoth was Nyaruko, Cthuko, and Hasta's teacher in Space Kindergarten. Shub-Niggurath is an OBGYN (which I guess would explain the "Thousand Young" thing)

>>18651661
Let's not forget she's voiced by teh rie, and Nyar is voiced by the amazing Kana Asumi. I swear, I never thought I could fall in love with a being whose sole desire is the weak destruction and madness, but...she's kind of my dream girl. Shit, they even made her a platinum blonde.

>Yog-Sothoth was Nyaruko, Cthuko, and Hasta's teacher in Space Kindergarten. Shub-Niggurath is an OBGYN

Well, my caution just went out of the window. This better be as awesome as it sounds

>>18651699

Personaly I always go for the cute but violently insane ones. Higurashi may as well have been a dating sim for me.

>>18651701
But if she speaks it, it tears a whole in reality allowing Azathoth to poke his tendrils in and say hello. Needless to say, no one survives the experience.

>>18651682
>She's going to look like this.
This is truly the year for monster girls.

I feel like I'm the only one who doesn't like this.
It just looks like generic otaku wish fulfilment moe stuff with Lovecraft references. A friend of mine has told me to wait until the third episode, because that's where animoo usually picks up (Madoka, Paranoia Agent) but so far I can't see it going anywhere other than what we've already been through.

>>18652130
You just might be. I think it's glorious.

Incidently, my sides were not ready for Nyar to attempt whistling. Holy shit that was great.

Come on, I'm sure you can come up with more buzzwords than that.

>It just looks like generic otaku wish fulfilment moe stuff with Lovecraft references.
And Kamen Rider references. And Pokemon references. And Gundam references. It's a character-driven gag comedy; trying to treat it as anything else is just going to leave you disappointed.

Agreed. Mother of god, i feel I'm right on the verge of waifuism. Figures it would take a genki-girl Nyarlathotep to finally push me over the edge.
