the-eyeball-pit

... anyway this is probably about to become the eito aotsuki essay zone. hand me a character who is simultaneously an exploration of systemic failure around disability / otherness and alienation / a pointed rebuke of retributive models of justice / about a million other themes i don't have the time to list because he's the manifestation of the work's goddamn thesis... and also a messy unmitigated bitch with the emotional maturity of a potato? WELL.

one thing i like about box of blessings? the fact that it's the ONLY route in the game (unless i'm forgetting smth it's been a while) where you actually get to see inside the futuran base. and one of the two times it happens it's only after eito pops up like "hey try looking inside the building idiots".

hey you know i think the game about colonialism and genocide where the main characters frequently rationalize committing war crimes with the idea that they have no other options might have some political themes.
