okay so without trying to spoil too much, the series concerns itself with a young unnamed man that I'm just going to refer to as the narrator because that's what everyone does. he is just starting college and has extremely idealized ideas on what college life could be.
the show's primary conceit is that the actions he takes in his first two years inevitably end up going horribly wrong, and he decides that if he had just chosen another path, he could finally have his ideal college life. and then in the next episode he is starting college again and chooses a different path for his college life
that is the weird thing I guess, but it's no where near the heart of the show. the real heart is in the narrator's progression as a character, and the cast of sidecharacters he winds between. you're constantly reintroduced to the same characters, but because the circumstances of the narrator and their meetings are different, so are your perceptions of the characters
it's kept very consistent throughout each iteration of the the narrator's college life, and seeing exactly how all the characters and pieces fit in together is extremely satisfying throughout its humble 11 episode run. it's not a mystery by any means, it's just wonderfully constructed and a pleasure to see unfold on its own terms
plus the art is pretty, it's got a good, easy going sense of humor, the voice acting is nice, and it's just a very refreshing and different show with a satisfying ending
and that is why I like it

Those just look like slightly unusual piercings Feral. From here, at least.
Well, it is a piercing, of a sort. You put in one side of the piercing as a subdermal implant, underneath the skin, but with a very small part sticking out upon which you can affix jewelry.

every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

That was talking about the Porsche from last week, right? I loved how much they trashed the look of that car.
It's an awful car. Porsche just needs to stick with making sexy little cars and leave normal and big size cars to everyone else. I swear, if they try to make a Jeep knock off, then I'm gonna start killing their designers.
I will admit that as someone that is constantly wavering between dreamy idealism and the practicalities of life, the show was in a good place to resonate with me
but I would still recommend it to almost anyone :v

I wish they were strong enough I could get two rows down my back and do corset piercings 24/7. Then again, I'm still debating straightlacing myself.
There was one guy who got rare earth magnets as subdermal implants. He can feel magnetic fields.
I know there are people that get magnets implanted in their finger tips so they can feel metal and stuff. It supposedly is pretty cool, but...eventually the magnets start sliding out of place, to my understanding.

While I can enjoy some of the aesthetic of piercings and tattoos and such as an observer, it tends to bring out an "oh god evidence of disease!" instinct in me, or else "okay if I touch this person they will start bleeding before the fun even starts."
So it's all cool so long as they don't expect me to ever touch them. We need that augmented reality so people can have illusory body mods.
Please note, this is coming from the guy that still wants a Calvin & Hobbes tattoo but is pissed that truckers ruined Calvin.
A Calvin tattoo that evoked the strip, like Calvin & Hobbes wrestling, or sitting on a sled, or three Calvins climbing out of a cardboard box, would be pretty sweet.

Any kind of body mod can migrate, depending on where you get it done. But, yeah, fingers especially, because that tissue is always moving and bending and bumping into stuff.

I tattooed "idspispopd" on my cock, and now when I get an erection I can stick it through walls.

What is the what?

That cross thing is ugly.... it'd look a lot cuter as a scar

No. What is it?
Feral: I see, so they are like, anchor points in your skin? Very....techpriesty.
Ehhhhh.
Now that is beautiful.
Inq: exactly. They're also really subtle, or at least they can be.

I've heard of them. Also there's eye jewelry and tattooing, scalp spikes, and freaking bizarre shit people do to their genitals.
Chastity piercings.
It looks like she's been infested with ticks.
What thing? I've been out of the loop.

Would you prefer this, or Inception-[chat]?
This one girl I met had two metal balls, maybe half an inch in diameter (which is pretty big, really), implanted under her skin near her wrist.
She was pretty hot actually.

Yeah-- that would be me!
Maybe I'm in Sweden too! How do you KNOW?
Give the Gift of Thor! Or maybe you'd be interested in that Orc Book I wrote.
Or she shoved push-pins into herself.
I don't dislike the current topic of discussion, though I don't have much to contribute.

My friend has something like this, like lil metal bar under her skin on the back of her neck with two lil metal balls at each end sticking out.

Drooling over here.
I don't understand what implanting metal balls into one's skin does.
Unless one has a favorite magnet they don't want to lose.

I like a very specific, girlish set of piercings. I'm not that big on ears that take dowels, for example.
I do this all the time. You'll be fine.
