Logan 20,538 Posted December 23, 2016 Author Share Posted December 23, 2016 I just watched episode 5 and I'm in utter shock. The show just took an even crazier turn. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ItsTommyBitch 12,640 Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Im on episode 3... Might not go on tbh Spoiler Her back story and persona was encapsulating enough... but the twist is that she actually WAS held captive, just with people that had NDEs That literally took all of the mystery out of the show Thats like, a huge set up with the Russian backstory, her "special" ness and effect on people, and then its SUCH a huge let down. It better get better, im pissed tbh. Also, what the **** are the odds of such a specific "researcher" /kidnapper finding her there? Its astronomical. There seems to be some sort of message of how she's special, about how death isn't permanent, its a choice, but the reveal that she was kidnapped by a charismatic researcher? That just ruins the mystery of the show, unless they plan to bring it back later like "People who had NDEs ARE special! BWAH!" and then it'll be too late. Also, Homer being dumb af when shes like "Are you kidding me, if i get back up there im gonna hit him over the head or something" and hes like "thats not important, just let my son know I care!" Girl, BYE The first two episodes, OA was mysterious like "You don't want to know what happened to me, or how I got my sight back" like it was something magical or mystical or alien or whatever. Im just super disappointed that we're probably gonna have to see them be in cages for like, 5 more episodes before they get out. I literally don't care about that plotline, it turns the entire show into "lacklusterbackstory!" when the premise of why a backstory is needed (girl returns after being missing for long time and can suddenly) is not that interesting in the first place. 私自身もこの世の中も誰もかれもが, どんなに華やかな人生でも, どんなに悲惨な人生でも, いつかは変貌し, 破壊され、消滅してしまう. すべてがもともとこの世に存在しない一瞬の幻想なのだから Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoiler I just finished episode 5 and at the end of the episode the show takes a drastic turn towards magical/supernatural. Even more so than before. Sorry to hear you're disappointed with it. I'll admit the show is frustrating, only because you want to skip all of the backstory and character development and get to a point where they escape, but a good show builds up a foundation before it hits major plot points.

n0ne 13,105 Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 Binged the first 4 episodes. Loved the mystery, acting, and atmosphere. The trippy ending of episode 1 was everything.
