    I just realized Kathy has so far been following the Hero's Journey. Refusal of the call (starts out stealing stuff left and right), completes trials (defeats monsters and saves villages), then reaches the "abyss" which is her lowest point. Gabrielle falls to darkness and the villages she saves are seized by monsters even more powerful than before.
    If she continues to follow this path, she should experience a transformation next (maybe a literal one like into an acrobat for instance?) then reaches apotheosis (her most idealized self), after which she vanquishes evil in the final battle and does her victory lap.

    Man it’s so crazy that this minor character JOHN is being set up as the big villain in Kathy’s arc.
    Edit: I really feel the Mangaka really jumped the shark with this issue, JOHN was always this pathetic little joke character, but they made him way to mean spirited this episode: having him beat up all the other characters, bullying poor Gabriel into super villainy by calling her fat, and having him suddenly win big at the slot machines uses the spinner tool? This manga is really going down hill, I can’t wait for Super Eye Patch to make a video on the Fall of Dokapon Kingdom.

      True. Johnpa the Rookie Crusher was a bit too much of a bully in this arc, and it was a bit of an asspull from the mangaka that he was able to beat the other three characters. You really expect me to believe that Johnpa could've taken on ALL THREE of the others, especially Kathy, at the same time? Absolute plot armor just to act as a setback for the heroes, this arc could've been a lot better. I personally can't wait to see if they adapt the "Steve's Hero License" arc from the web novel, though I'm not sure if they'll want to commit to that seeing as how much of a jobber this adaptation is trying to sell him as. I hope they do though, because Steve's rise from underdog to turning the tides upon becoming a Hero, really completes his whole arc.

    I love the Darkling Mechanic because it actually allows anyone to make a comeback, no matter how badly behind you are (excluding the broken local item/Alchemist combo which you just have to house rule out).
    Combos perfectly with the "beat a player, get exp to be their level" mechanic too.
    John played super well in the latter half of the episode, was really fun (and tense when he got the acrobat job unlock item). Hopefully someone in chat informed him that it's best to finish maxing out a job first for the permanent extra stat each level up (I can't remember if he mastered his starting class or not)

    See, here's the issue around the narrative with Dokapon Kingdom. Is the game evil and cruel? Yes. Absolutely.
    But it's also GOOD. It's interesting and deep and complex and CRUNCHY in the best ways. It's tense and allows for moments of discovery and investment and emotion that you aren't going to get from a Mario party or anything like it.
    Look at John come the end of this episode. That is elation. Genuine joy, all because Dokapon created a rising and falling action, a stress and release he could actually invest himself in.
    It is a cold, cruel game. It does not care if you succeed or fail. It does not care if you understand what you did wrong. You will either learn, or die, broken and penniless. But the same could be said of Fear and Hunger. There is a reason there are not clones and -alikes of this, but they still gave it a re-release with online play. No other game is quite like Dokapon Kingdom. Maybe one day, someone will find that balance between crunch and randomness, the charming visuals and discovery and tension, and Dokapon will fade from its unique position. But For now, this is the feeling you can only get from Dokapon Kingdom.

    I just realized this. Is the fem warrior avatar showing underboob? I can just barely make out lines that look like underboob. That or it's some kind of stomach definition, which would be weird, but not impossible.

    I figured the game gave out a randomized name to keep the player from changing the name to something fucked up, but nope! Game gives Gabrielle the most fucked up name I've ever seen outside of fps handles.

    It's kinda lame that they changed the name prank to a random selection.
