Was I WRONG About Digital Circus?

Fun fact: In english Jax said "I'm so unbelievably disappointed right now" but in french he said the meme "my disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined", how nice. 😂

I think people exaggerated Jax's behavior in this episode. It's not like he suddenly became something he's not. He has always been an asshole.

I love how people are so disappointed that Jax has no redeeming moments in this episode, so they desperately grabbed on to the split second where he looked a little sad. 😂

Being disappointed that Jax isn't the "Secretly Troubled" trope after the creator went on record multiple times to unambiguously say shit like "He's Chaotic Evil" and "He deserves to be at the circus" is crazy. A character can be likable AND a totally irredeemable jerk at the same time

It’s funny how people are saying Jax is different now because as someone who watched the pilot, did not engage with the fandom, and then watched episode 2 he seems the exact same to me

jax is literally a gta player that gladly runs over pedestrians when its funny, i like him being an asshole with out a clear heart behind himself. embrace the chaos, cause the chaos.

Candy Queen: Have fun executing that bandit Pomny: Yes we are definitely going to do that Cain: oh yes we are

You’re not alone in the “there’s nothing wrong with it, it just don’t click for me” train. This has happened to me SOOOO many times, I swear. Sometimes I get into a series or cartoon that is very well written, but I can’t really connect with it in the way it’s expected and it feels like I’m just nodding along as the plot goes. And honestly, that’s normal, it just means that it isn’t something that you’re vibing with currently. Sometimes it’s personal preference, other times it’s because of personal stuff going on in your life, it happens and it is okay. You’re not obligated to like something just because other people do. Just go with whatever is in your heart!

Why did it take me 16 and a half minutes to realize by DC he meant digital circus, not DC as in the comics

"He lives life like he's playing GTA" That would explain his obsession with violence-

Gooseworx did specify on Twitter that Digital Circus isn't gonna have this huge complex lore to it, but it is gonna be centered around the characters themselves and building relationships. A character-centric show, not a plot-centric one, if that makes sense. I personally think it's awesome.

I personally think that the whole "Caine's jokes go on too long to the point where the joke doesn't hit" is kinda his gimmick, like and uncle to tells shitty jokes but you don't let him stop cause you'd feel bad. He's an AI meant to be overly wacky so he just kinda does that and it's his whole schtick.

I honestly don’t want Jax to have any redeeming qualities until the later episodes. It’s been too long since a show has had a genuine a$$hat character that only changes when the plot demands it!

“Caine is a game designer working on crunch time” Oh my god, imagine if he just turns into Kayaba from SAO Abridged! 🤣

Goose has stated on twitter multiple times that Jax is SUPPOSED to be hated She's said things like "he's the one that deserves to be there”, “he’s chaotic evil”, and “he’s gonna do something unforgivable later in the show”

Ngl I wasn’t huge on Jax, but I kinda like him now that he’s worse. Nothing in the circus matters, and he’s cruel and callous and that keeps him sane, entertained, and emotionally distant. He doesn’t care and that keeps him from abstracting. Like he sucks so much, and that’s intriguing in the context of the circus.

Jax being an awful person was confirmed by Gooseworks a long time ago lmao, if anybody's actually disappointed in how evil Jax is, they should've known better lol

I find it Funny how both fandoms of hazbin and digital were upset that their husbandos(Alastor/jax) were horrible people despite it being obvious that they are.

Something I really like is that they didn't try to make jax like a "bad boy" but actually made him a full on semi unapologetic antagonist

I deeply respect your ability to recognise when it's the show's problem and when it's just you. A few too many people just assume that if they don't like it then it's not good, which is dumb. So you take gives out positive and responsible vibes, and I love it
