Singular Point Spoiler Discussion

G. H. (Gman)

I get your point on themes but dont exactly agree. I feel its a bit of a stretch to say SP was closest to 54' when films like Shin Godzilla also use science to defeat godzilla, (even if the end is a bit far fetched). And Radiation is barely mentioned in SP

HinikunaGoji,
I'm not saying it's the closest to the original film. I think Singular Point would be the closest Godzilla related story Ishiro Honda himself would've appreciated--Especially since the entire story's themes rely on hard science. Shin Godzilla's themes were more concerned Japan's government policies and how that hinders their response to the people.

The Singular Point soundtrack dropped today and it is gorgeous.

I was looking for a specific  song I know the march theme gets a lot of attention but https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ci8h3PJ3Ypk&list=PLY9tfiQmWC_MIVNE19OVKVbAw5RNJtwMB&index=30 at 1;51 is my favorite theme ever

Sawada has really knocked it out of the park.

I love singular point, Ive rewatched it about four times so far. Each time ive realized more and more about the plot. And it gets better. PEople ive watched it with also help me realize new things. its really amazing. But i still hate the english dub

HinikunaGoji,
Agreed. Part of the rewatch factor is understanding it better with each viewing. The series is simply chalk full of ideas, nuance, references, cultural and religious ideas steaming from Japanese to Buddhism--It doesn't cease to be fascinating even upon rewatch.

My latest rewatch has revealed an implication I didn't catch before. The evolved Jet Jaguar claims he came into being via the code Yun wrote which was triggered by Ashihara--Implying Ashihara may be an older Yun.

Season 2 can come soon enough.

I dont think Ashihara is Yun because when Pero 2 (I refuse to say pelops 2) goes into the past with the project he sees into the past shiva with ashihara, Ashihara seems confused what the song is, but JJ tells Yun what it is at the end.

I never got that impression he was confused, but the Singular Point Official Guide released earlier this month confirms that Ashihara, and I quote, "triggered the protocol that Yun wrote."

But was the trigger intentional? I dunno maybe season 2 will answer that
