    Episode 3 was my favourite episode. I loved how... (SPOILERS FROM HERE ON) the antagonist got what she wanted, but in the most terrible way. She may have won, but at what cost? It was such a clever way of letting karma still win in the end. Such amazing themes in all the episodes.

    For those who think Nanno doesn't represent karma, in one of their interviews, Nanno literally stated "Are you scared? Don't worry, Nanno only punishes those who deserve it."
    And in another interview the director also stated that Nanno is the daughter of Satan who finds joy in watching people suffer from their own sins, remember, Satan and Lucifer are two different entities. Satan represents the ruler of wrath and Lucifer represents pride.
    Yuri represents vengeance because you could clearly see the way she manipulates people into killing themselves, while Nanno never really attacked anyone, she only manipulated them into creating their own karma.

    Nanno is probably one of my favourite characters in fiction currently. We know next to nothing about her, but she is extremely compelling and watchable, and Chicha does a fantastic job with the character. Her development throughout the 2 seasons has been subtle but very good and Im fascinated to see where the writers take her character next. I enjoyed the very last episode which I saw as kind of a deconstruction Nanno's entire motivation, and the fact that even though her goal is to hold others accountable, she isnt really held accountable herself, because she has all these powers which make her invulnerable to consequences. In the third season it would be interesting, trying to see her do her job while having to be very careful about how she approaches the situations she orchestrates and also contending with Yuri and Junko, and possibly a bunch of other people who have been gifted her powers.

      To me Nanno represents the forms of Karma that come from your own actions, while Yuri represents the forms of karma that come to you from other people. Nanno loves to torment her victims by essentially giving them what they asked for and more, while yuri tends to manipulate others into being violent.

  • @ruby-pz8rz
    @ruby-pz8rz 2 года назад +59

    imo i think nanno is karma, yuri is revenge and ❗️spoiler❗️junko is wrath. nanno gives people a taste of their own medicine, or even lines things up so that karma will take its course. yuri is revenge. she's not focused on giving people an adequate punishment, she just wants them to hurt, for them to be in pain for what they did. junko is wrath. similar to yuri, but i feel she is more focused on the anger part. she will do anything to make sure they feel her anger, her pain. of course, there's only one ep with junko so far so this is just what i think based on that.
    ps - i think nanno faked her death so that junko and yuri will leave and she has time to plan out what she's going to do.

    I always thought of it like...Nanno represents karma, she goes around giving people well karma for their actions, depending on the actions she gives them proper punishment. Yuri seemed more like
    Vengeance...? If that makes sense, she seemed less worried about bad people paying for their own actions and more for whoever got hurt has every right to hurt that person back, 10x's worse.

      Nanno gives life lessons and life long regrets while yuri gets everyone killed. All yuri did is create one more homocidal nanno blood×human hibrid with nothing but desire for deadly revenge. Yuri has the human deffect of being emotional and thinking short term. I'm really curios to see what nanno will do next, if it's all gonna come to a great conclusion of how judgements should be made

    I don't agree with this nano is karma and Yuri is revenge stuff. It's very basic and black and white. Nano instigates things that doesn't align with karma. Ie on the bueaty school where she tells the girl she can ruin the other girls faces to be the prettiest. And Yuri doesn't exact revenge for just anyone. She picks and chooses and kills the innocent. Ie killing the dog and in jennyx she instigates to rose that nano isn't trustworthy to get her own selfish end to try an overthrow nano.
    If anything I think nano is not a personification of anything. She's an entity facisnated, like you said with negative human emotion like guilt, selfishness, etc. She got a little too curious one day and decided to see what a human with her power would react. Birthing Yuri. She got her answer in the end. When a human is given incredible powers they turn into an incarnation of those negative emotions. Selfishness, revenge, chaos. And because yunko is given yuris blood and also another human with great power she also turns out to become insanely evil and selfish and kills her mother anyways despite her own wrongdoings. Yuri and yunko always justify their violence because they're human. Whereas nano isnt actually a human given power. It might be a stretch to compare but Yuri reminds me of Hitler, he justified everything he did as a means of taking revenge for Germany's shitty economy and propping his people up by any means possible even if it involves human lives just like Yuri kills the dog and sides with yunko despite her also taking lives herself. Humans will always turn completely evil when given immense power and try to overthrow those with more power than them, is the lessen I take from this series which has been proven through History.
    My thoughts in season 3 is that now that nano has gotten her answer as to how humans react to intense power given to them. She needs to essentially now give them a taste of their own medicine. But it will be the hardest task yet as she's not dealing with measily humans anymore. These are humans with her powers. She probably will have to find a way to take her powers back or make them mortal again? Idk how she'll do it but clearly she's not happy with the path that humans have chosen with her power.
    Side note I don't think she ever really died either. I think her wound didn't heal because nano didn't want it to heal. She was still testing yuri, every little detail is to test her imo. She's still a human in the sense of how the react and operate and not whatever nano is.

Its more like she is a powerful god like creature. And like most powerful god like entities she looks for entertainment. But also becomes karma when she likes.
