Dafug did I just read? … it’s beautiful … yet disturbing … but mesmerizing … and beautiful
It was an adventure. This is truly an epic.
Changing the main character perspective half way is actually the weirdest part
half his arm in the last panel isn’t colored in
That’s her arm now.
Being pasty white is contagious.
we’re always getting scammed by Big Webcomic
Know how I know this is fiction? The claw machine has a strong grip. Also other things.
The grip on claw machines is adjustable, so the owner of the machine can decide how hard or easy it is.
how do you even come up with this? like what was the artist doing to even think of something this weird???
“Ontological is a funny word.”

they were smoking weed in front of a “claw machine”
stares glassily and stone-faced into oblivion whilst eating quarters
“You’ve done it again Jenkins, promotion!”
I just wanna know what the red guy’s plan was. He hangs out in arcades as a veteran of the, uh, sport, and coaches others in being one with the machine… then acts surprised when they achieve it.
If this is the first time his advice has worked, I once again ask: what the hell is his overall plan in being there.
His advice can “work” without the person dissolving into the fundamental essence of the claw machine. The much more likely, third option is “the vague, trite advice gets them out of their own head and lets them keep trying without crashing out until they win.”
That’s fair. And then he shrinks back into the shadows and waits for the next guy having an existential crisis. I guess I just really want to know whether the red guy works for the machine or not
I’m gonna leave this thread with more questions than I had when I started reading that.
They really put a Qabala tree in there for the claw machine soul swap ⚰️
“Ontology is the study of being.” That’s not a sentence fragment, that’s the whole thing. Being what, you might ask? Just, being.
Being and Nothingness and Being and Time are the books you want on this. That’s a 1000 pages by Sartre and Heidegger and the core documents of existentialism.
Have I read it all? Fuck no, this shit is hard to read. I once reread a page 8 times and still didn’t get it.
Neon Genesis Evangelion be like
I don’t know why this is funny, but I’m laughing anyway. Last Place is really out there sometimes.
