Not only is my world view quite warped, but I just... Think alot. It's just something I do. If something seems like it doesn't have a concrete answer at first, I think until I get that answer. Usually I find the meaning I get out of it and move on.

I usually don't dig into the mindsets of characters or settings that much, but I know a ton about topics of thought. I suppose I have an artistic mind, I just see the world in a ton of perceptions and, whenever someone points out a new way to think about something, I hold up that lense to look at the series in.

Like, I initially saw Nier Automata as a pretty cynical mess for no reason with how the opening line is "if there's a God I wanna murder him"

Then Sewa pointed out how it fuels into the theme of futility of Nier Automata, the idea that God is dead and there is no true consistent purpose for anyone anymore.

Now I saw one thing I didn't like as something that fits pretty well with depression and the loss of meaning.
