Apocalypse Hotel episode 9

me inside

All hail The Main Character of Apocalypse Hotel

Weirdly melodramatic episode for this show.

But at least they fixed Yachio.

that's not censorship, tanuki who get slugged in the gut like that really do puke rainbows and glitter

Good.

Tank Yachiyo belonged in War Thunder NOT Apocalypse Hotel.

But at least they fixed Yachio.

thank fuck

RIP tanuki grandma.

Marry by exchanging poop

Why did these space indians get to live while humanity died.

What BR?

Hostess Yachiyo

I wanna believe that diving suit guy is a human from the undersea sanctuaries confused as hell about everything.

You don`t say - dead bodies smells weird.

It's like the dancing coffin meme.

Yachiyo in shorts to show off her legs is cute.

its okay yachiyo has inherited grandma's fighting spirit

Ponko sex.

i just wanted robot existential crisis

they built a mini reception desk for her

Cute

I'm thinking Old woman Ponko is going to happen by episode 12 and the show is gonna end with everyone being gone except Yachiyo and Weatherbot.

She’ll birth the next hotelier generation

Yeah, it's probably supposed to be during one of granny's good days post-return but they gave Yachiyo a fixed body.

The robot is sublimating her existential crisis by performing her intended function.

I crode

I bet this was an amazing episode if you gave even the slightest fuck about the street shitters. Sadly, I do not. This was pretty funny though.

What a fucking dogshit episode, the worst one by far. The tanukis have really ruined this series.

Remind me again why anyone would dislike Ponko?

Itʼs more tanukishit.

Their taste is shittier than the streets of tanuki planet.

Yachiyo san...

I'm so fucking tired of Ponko.

Sorry boys, this is a tanuki show now.

Love it when that happens.

humanity never returns

not because they died out

not because they evolved into a new species

but because they see what's happening at this hotel and don't want any part of this shit

either the writer originally wanted to make a show about tanukis in the first place or they got sidetracked by them while writing this show

It's a show about hotel, they are doing hotel things.

The first frame of the episode already had me cackling. Look at that little baby desk!! LMAO

post apoc hotel drama turned to utter shit by tanukis

why

Maybe nukis need a certain level of mental and physical maturity to start transforming into adults and ponko got there faster than her brother? I dunno im not an alien biologyst

Welp. Another week, another rank lower due to dogshit episode.

Probably sitting at around 6/10 at this point. Great and promising introductory episodes turned to literal shit. Quite the whiplash, but hopefully it will all average out to be at least "meh" in the end.

Definitely not something that will be on my recommendation list, as I initially thought it would be. And holy fuck is it disqualified as fuck from any AOTS conversations. A real shame, but it's still entertaining enough.

Don't miss your sister breeding season, anon

Adult Ponko's casual clothes are total sexo and thank God they fixed Yachiyo.

FASTER

short op

FUCKING STOP

I'm not a biggest fan of the tanukis, but this episode was fucking great.

Sauce

WAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH I DON'T LIKE THIS, I MUST WATCH IT EVERY WEEK AND CRY MORE

Drop the show or shut the fuck up

Should have just called this Tanuki Hotel, false advertisement.

PONKO STOLE THE SHOW AGAIN

Good, emotional episode nonetheless

The constant tanuki whining feels truly organic every week.

I know people are whining about tanukis but I wish we got more insane robot existential crises.

I know this might come as a surprise, but Anon Babble is not your echo chamber, people can express their opinions wherever you like it or not.

Man what a unique idea for an episode, good stuff it got me a bit at the end.

Are they supposed to be from kyushu or kansai?

They were all great at baseball

This was extra cute

Thank you, Anon.

link?

Why is he still a shota?

How did granny maintain her transformation after death?

She's that good

2 weeks late but why they didn't just implement automatic system that dispatches the satellite? Sending Yachiyo there is forced. That leaves bitter expression on me and I was rating the anime high.

Ponko, you've finished your story, now please return the show to Yachiyo for the last couple of episodes.

He’s only a few decades behind if she was 56 in episode 2, so either late bloomer, or he wants to live his oneeshota fantasies.

Wanted him to attend the wedding

street shitters

please do not insult the tanukis by reducing them to mere street shitters. they are, in fact, planet shitters

She died peacefully, they only revert back when scared

I like the tanuki plotlines but the tanuki's themselves are boring alien designs and made it feel like a massive bait and switch when they replaced the episode 1-2 plant guy. Not even trying to be a spec evo fag who rants about "Real aliens", but the tanuki's are just lazy as fuck. You could replace them with any other alien species in fiction and the show would be infinitely better. Their appearance isn't interesting and all their alien traditions are just poop and shit jokes. Imagine if the episode about Yachiyo having to deal with weird alien customs clashing with the hotel was actually about her having to deal with bizarre and weird things instead of a bunch of rats smothering the rooms in shit.

I’m getting Murenase flashbacks

Take me back to robots maintaining a hotel that has no guests because it's their nature as their bodies slowly fall apart because no humans are around to do maintenance. At least take me back to interacting with cool new aliens. These tanuki are basically humans and all the cool space shit happened offscreen. We never saw the hotel become prosperous, we never saw them learn to accommodate all kinds of aliens, we never saw them learn about what other alien lives are out there. We don't even get the "maybe humans will be back someday" shit anymore

You've had like 7 episodes to get used to the direction the show took and instead you just bitch and moan every week.

That’s me

IMG_2991.jpg - 549x332, 49.86K

The courage to say I like Ponko.

Fucking plant shitters ruined the anime

If someone drove me 70 minutes into the desert with the intention of shooting me in the head, I would still hate it when it happened

Ditto, but I do miss the loli version

I don't even hate the tanukis but this episode was mid. Hopefully they've got something really spicy for the last 3 episodes.

Around tanukis, never relax.

death to tanukis

Koma-chan did it better.

A bunch of people called it the episode they showed up. It is what it is

395206.jpg - 1920x1080, 303.01K

This is just a metaphor for humanity in the far future.
We're doomed.

I can't believe they killed her three episodes from the end.

Will we get a 2nd season?

I thought I was gonna get existential crisis robot anime but all I see is tanukiniggers

That's oddly enough a good depiction of minorities if you think about it.

Oh, so these are in the show now

I guess that's fine if they're just side characters

Oh, one of them got a character-centered episode. Guess it was a good enough one though.

Oh, they're becoming the main characters of the show now.

All of it wrapped in the ,,refugees from a war-torn place" thing. Just brilliant.

Don't care what anyone says. Great Episode.

does nothing wrong

everyone beats on him anyway

Why is he not aging? Is he like a kid sitcom star or something?

Yes. He has to be groomed by a tanuki Charlie Sheen before he can ages up.

Ponko randomly grew into an adult in the span of 50 years after looking like a child for the last 200.
Probably just hasn't hit his growth spurt yet.

Perfect episode. Liked it better than episode 6.

Isn't it clear by this point you aren't getting it?

would yachiyo fuck the shota?

Ah, they'll get there. His voice actress can do a pretty good teenage boy voice, so it'll likely happen in the last episode.

All those

waaaah tanukis ruined the show

reeeeee

You stupid fucks, the tanukis are why yachiyo is being able to grow as a character, they are a integral part in her development. before their arrival yachiyo was but a robot mechanically doing the routine, and not completing other hotel tasks that could promote and secure its existance. With the tanukis and other characters, like cangaroo neko and the plant alien yachiyo could complete several projects that so, far, secured the existance of gingarou, and in the process, she grow so much as a character.
Dunno man, maybe go see one of those series with eternal fillers where nothing happens or things are moving slower than a glaciar, maybe thats more your speed, because many of you fucks could not grasp the themes of this episode, loss, mourn, appreciation of fleeting moments and celebration of life. But yeah in order to be able to celebrate life, you need to experience it first, and its blatantly obvious that many of you so far, didnt.

what the actual fuck
I think I'm the one having the existential crisis

Me watching this episode

robots are not sentient, they don't have characters that can grow

achsually muh narrative

Episodes 7 and 8 were shit thanks to Ponko and this episode was good NOT thanks to Ponko. That is all.

Not one of the complainers, but that could have been done with aliens of the week. You yourself mentioned plantbro and Harmage.
These robots are sentient and have characters that can grow.

im not reading all that
fuck taniggers

who drew this

Slop

Yachio had growth with plantman and Hammy. Justify Yachio being stuck in orbit being timeskipped while Ponko's wedding got a whole episode. Yachio pondering what it all means from 22,000 miles in the sky would've been way better than what we got

This place is full of whining faggots like them now, they think legitimate criticism = screeching like a spoiled child

That's about where I lost. And the song, with her son singing along with the song his mother taught him.

The hotel is bustling nowadays.

Just another day in space India.

Yachio pondering what it all means from 22,000 miles in the sky

This would have been nice, but I also liked this episode. The weak link for me was episode 8. That one was just too randomly over the top.

Kek.

It was not high on action, but still pretty good. For those who actually feel emotions anyhow. 9/10.

It's like real life.

She is supposed to be capable of "full service".

I do not care for tanukis
I don't hate them, but I do not love them
The grandma's death didn't really make me feel anything, but she wasn't really developed as a character.

Ponko's wedding is a hotel event which we haven't how it would be handled before. Yachiyo in space has nothing to do with hotels and thusly less relevant to Apocalypse Hotel.

I expected the destroyer.

1 tanuki dead only 5 to go

So something like Star Wars, where it was great for a long time, then Disney fucking murdered it.

These ones are self aware. They are driven to complete assigned tasks, but they grow and develop to suit needs.

There's going to be new baby tanuki incoming so get ready.

if there was a time to tip the scales one way or another to show whether she possessed true sentience and her governing algorithm hasn't just been returning wildly unpredictable outputs based on novel inputs, then it would be during the time when she was lost in space alone with whatever constitutes her thoughts, but instead we got a timeskip to more tanukiantics

i can't help but fucking laugh whenever i hear yachiyo tank treads in a scene its feels so out of place

Agreed. The space deserved at least an episode for reflection, character development and some kino moments, but it seems like they chickened out and skipped it to get more action and not risk boring the audience.

survives atmospheric reentry

punches tanukis with the same force as the civilization destroying creature

crash lands and doesn't get completely obliterated from the impact

What magic tech is Yachiyo made out of?

OP sucks, is better this way.

Tankchiyo

can i get the catbox to that pic?

Sure, but in this case you stop at a bus stop every 5 minutes and you STILL refuse to get off.
I can sympathize with niggas who wanted a deep meaningful ,,world dying, AI coping" story, I really do. But if you hate the ok comedy-ish thing we've got instead you had PLENTY of opportunities to get off, so I have little sympathy for you.

Im just happy yachiyo’s body was fully repaired

It was making me sad every time we see her dancing in the OP with her slender, beautiful, fully functional feet, but Tankchiyo was so endearing that I'm sad to see her go too

Isn't it weird for Tanuki culture to treat death like humans do? They live a long ass time and they are MANY, you would imagine them to treat death as another party, sure that's kind of what they do at the end but only after Yachiyo had to convince them.

To highlight how much I am not enjoying this series I wanted to say that the episode of Shiunji was better, but no, no it wasn't
Witch Death was, but that's not controversial since that show rocks and S'berry is the season's best girl

Σ(゚Д゚)

robots in the thread can't understand the aliens

Sorry you got baited Anon Babble, this isn't the robot struggle with people and emotions show, its the robots coping with life of pointless suffering show doing random shits pretending the humans are coming back and there's a point to anything they're doing

You could make up for the mistake by saying it was a test run for the fixed body or it broke down and needed repairing again since that last picture.

(((Ponstein)))

how the fuck is ponko's brother still a brat when she's an adult?
they looked the same age

pvBKUs[1].png - 329x585, 228.52K

You're right. That picture makes no sense. I wonder if that's an oversight or if the show is trying to be contradictory on purpose. There is also the times simply not aligning. In ep 6 (I think?) they said it was 400 years since the humans left, but in ep 8 (which should have taken decades if not centuries later) they say it's 2350, which is only 300 years after the humans left. None of the timeskips really make any sense if you try to add them up either.

And somehow the other humanoid robots stopped working.

I'd like to know what the obstacle and solution to that even was, but that's just begging for another kuroitsu freelancer pic.

Ponko suddenly can fix Yachiyo's body right when she most needs it

almost as if the tanuki could have done it all along

Did they prop up Yachiyo's lifeless robot body for this photo?

They're long-lived shapeshifters. They choose what the look like.

they cant self-insert as her

Anyone who can't self-insert as Ponko can't self-insert as Yachiyo either.

Being able to get off doesn't change my issue with the destination not being what was advertised. Plus, I don't hate the tankuki that much. Ponko is okay, the rest kinda suck. But they're all worse than robot zetsubou

Can humans return already and exterminate all these vermins who are shitting up the place.

I think the issue here, such as it is, is that they came into this expecting the stereotypical post-apocalyptic robot melodrama that tends to come with these kinds of settings. Instead, they got a Cygames studio anime, and it sure does feel like a Cygames studio anime.

Fuguri hasn't yet entered the breeding period :3

its just contrarianism at this point

That poor fucking owl has his work cut out for him what with all the alien languages kicking around now.

Celebrating a wedding ceremony and having a wake at the same time feels rather macabre.

Concierge punch: serious series

Yachiyo got her body back, but at what cost...

character growth

Just proving what I said since episode 1, might as well just be an anime about a regular hotel with wacky new tourists each episode.

We didn't even get a Doorman-san overheating scene today. Them being robots doesn't really even matter anymore

If Ponko was able to fix Yachiyo's body couldn't she try and do the same for the other broken down conciergebots?

You can't bring back the dead.
