      ​@@frankyanish4833Kind of the issue. Like with gummigoo, he didn't NEED TO. He could have just made gummigoo a jerk, instead he made him save his mom. He didn't need to make them think he was god, he coudl have just made a kingdom and told them he was there to help. Infact I'd day say he was playing a dangerous game because if they priase him as god, and spoke to any of the cast about him further, I'm sure they would have heard some things that might have made gummigoo's existential crisis look small in comparison to the WITCH HUNT THEY COULD HAVE INCURRED. Caine is playing a dangerous game.

      @willowren3601 26 днів тому +12

      Was coming to make that exact comment. His hand is toward the back when he catches her so it's very hard to see. Easiest to pick it out under Pomni's glove where her wrist is. Her wrist is the same color as his glove but you can see it at either side of the wrist. Narratively after hearing all four of them give respects to Kaufmo Pomni sees them now as people who actually care one of their number was lost and that they legitimately look out for each other. Perhaps initially after seeing Kaufmo just unceremoneously and seemingly carelessly discarded by Caine she thought the others didn't care it happened, and that they wouldn't care if she abstracted either, but now that she sees there is legitimate care between them she feels like she can trust them to be there.

  • @kareembarghouti1308
    @kareembarghouti1308 26 днів тому +149

    11:07 I do have my own theory about this.
    As Gooseworx has said, Jax is 22, and was only 17 when he entered the Circus, being probably the youngest there. He entered with a friend though, but his friend abstracted, and now he doesn't like funerals because they remind him of his friend, leaning into his inmature side.
    Also, as DeepCut said on his last theories, Jax is aware that humans can't be physically damaged in the Circus, and he just wreaks havoc because he doesn't understand the mental damage he provokes into his human companions, or simply doesn't care, and he just wants a rush of adrenaline, because he's so bored and full of it.
    Look guys, I'm not saying Jax is a good person, I'm just trying to find out his reasons to be a bad one, I like him as a character.

    • @theannihilator7989
      @theannihilator7989 25 днів тому +8

      I agree with this, and I feel him and kafoomoo were actually pretty close, in their own sense anyways….i also feel they both shared similar interests, as in they both want out. Like you said, he is sick of being stuck in the circus. 5 years in a digital universe can do wonders on a young mind, not to mention how long the others have been stuck their, I believe he and kaffmoo were looking for the exit together for a period of time, but Jax gave up. And decided to just be a Jackass, but kafmoo kept trying, and eventually he saw the same exit as Pomni. And like her went after it, but it kept vanishing or it was the fake one Caine made (I believe he’s smarter then he lets on) and kept trying to use that one, and just went insane…..so that’s why had doesn’t want to be at the funeral, because he had been his friend but left him to his own devices, and feels guilt about that…..that’s just me

    • @user-od3jj4cv6v
      @user-od3jj4cv6v 24 дні тому +2

      look at Jax's face on 11:10 in slow motion. He looks depressed. My theory at first was it might be a way of grieving for him. Plus, i think Kaufmo and him got pretty close by kind of pushing each other around playfully, Jax would've liked the thrill of the game, without the hate that comes with it. And Kaufmo would've been happy to play, and felt good knowing he downgraded bullying for the others. That's why the others are so mad with Jax's behavior, it wasn't all that bad when Kaufmo would let him take it out, while not being hated for venting and taking out anger. So to Jax, losing someone you depend on and never being able to have them back is rough, but i think another reason he hated it is your theory, not only not wanting to believe a person is "dead". I think another reason the funrual of his spawn buddy hurt so bad in the past was it might've been the first funrual he'd been to, which makes it feel even worse when the first is the worst one, and he have to carry that with him forever now.
      i also think you both make very good and possible points :) just adding my own thoughts to them

      Arguably, that's worse. Knowing you had a place on this earth, but only know part of that place. Which is not helped by them not knowing their names. A name gives something meaning, after all. What meaning does their old life really have, if they have no name to place it with?

      The question is whether Jax’s character will follow the same general story as Judas. Judas felt guilty, threw the money he got into the temple, and then hung himself. If he ends up driving Pomni or someone else to abstract, will he go the same way? Worse? Better?

      In the painting, Peter (the one who denied him) and Judas (the actual traitor) are actually both on the same side- off to Jesus’ right. If the positions in the show are supposed to reflect that, it would mean that Kinger and Gangle fulfill those roles.

    I kind of saw Caine as an interesting broken AI.
    One made to interact with humans, but a flawed understanding of humanity and unable to figure out what he is doing wrong.
    The humans or 'brain scans' have no human memories for him to work off of. Just emotions and personalities.
    He has guidelines for what makes a human happy and his current progress is more likely out of repeated failures rather than true understanding.
    Which is why he sort of freaks out when humans do not play his games and why he seems rather distressed at the idea of messing up or unable to tell a human apart from an NPC.
    A broken AI trying to follow its programming with a situation now made within his understanding.
    Curious to see how he goes. Especially since he seems to understand pain is bad, hunger sucks... And yet makes digital food to make people experience the sensation of eating and drinking despite the lack of a need for it.

      An interesting concept with gnosticism although the scriptural Truth is Jesus is the same God of the old testament. The name of God is YHWH (those Hebrew letters) which means "I AM WHO I AM" Exodus 3:14. It is this title Jesus identifies with during his various "I am" statements. I am the door, I am the Good shepherd and I am the way, the truth and the life. Chief among his statements is John 8:58.

    So... i have a theory that expands on this one, and its based on how jax reacted to the funeral.
    Im thinking that, unlike what most are thinking, its that Klaufo and Jax were close friends and he doesnt want to hear something that he would consider "fake" being said about his friend. Although not confirmed, this hinges on them having been brought into the game at the same time and having grown to live in it because they were together. I forget which book but there is a tale of the scorned lover who burned the city to the ground for not having wept like she did upon her heroic husbands death... unaware that they were crying, they were just holding a strong and honorable face just as her husband wouldve wanted to see.
    In this instance the story of the scorned lover would be Jax and klaufo... but in more of an essence of a scorned brother. Coming from someone who loves his brother... if we were pulled into a video game with no hopes of escape and my brother lost his mind........ id want to destroy the game, to cause a much havoc and mayhem, and to sew as much chaos as i possibly could, before eventually losing myself too. Its odd to me, honestly... if this theroy is correct, then Jax should know that he also has a new family, as insensitive as it is, family isnt what your born into... its the people and friends you choose and those whom stand by you when your hurting, its the people who will raise you up for the smallest of victories, its the people who will help you through the pain and be that shoulder to cry on for you... it took me a very long time to learn this... but Jax and i seem rather similar (him being the obvious extreme)
    But... hey thats just a theory. A youtube Theory, thanks for reading.

    You can see Kinger's hand in that scene if you watch it slower. It's hard to see at the end because it's in the back of the frame, but you can see it extend down quickly

    Personally I believe that Jax is the digital circus equivalent of Ted.
    While ragata is the equivalent of Ellen.
    Jax is likely acting this way as a coping mechanism to keep himself sane but at the end of the day he is probably the one who will pull through

    It’s amazing knowing that Gnosticism is being acknowledged now. And the fact that digital circus have crucial references with Gnosticism is both interesting and brilliant.
    Also, for Caine, originally Cain is Elohim, Son of the Demiurge Saklas and Eve. And Abel is Yahweh, Brother of Cain. Just thought you’d want to know, regarding the apocryphon of John.

    What if C and A stands for Clone And Amplify? What if the company is trying to keep humans in the circus for long enough so that they could learn every single thing about them so they can make clones of them that are more powerful than the human counterparts? The abstracted are just those who have had every last bit of them observed by C and A so they don’t need them anymore.

    "I don't imagine caine presenting himself as their god"
    Strictly speaking, that's precisely what happened.
    Caine created every single aspect of that world, it's history, what little culture it has, everything. The NPCs "remember" whatever Caine wrote into their backstory, with the precise amount of detail he wrote into it. GG remembers having a mother, but when he actually thinks about it, nothing about her, because Caine didn't feel any need to write those details into his memory. The culture of the kingdom is just what Caine wrote it to be for the purpose of the scenario. He created their religion, just as he created all their memories, bodies, the map, etc.
    Caine doesn't actually care that he's their god, and he doesn't care about their worship. They're just game assets for a scenario made to entertain the players to the best of Caine's iffy ability to do so.
    (Mind you... it could be argued that Caine's moment of horror at confusing players and NPCs could be at least partly from the notion that if he can't tell the difference between the two, then treating NPCs as disposable game assets becomes an ethical nightmare, and the job he's already only barely capable of handling just gets a million times more of a mess)

    I also think that the story plot is going to build up bit by bit in a sort of Gravity Falls kind of show, and I think this is also going to be like a main antagonist kind of show with Caine building up to be the main antagonist, like Wheatley from Portal, but a little more smarter

    I’ve been having a theory that what if Caine is also a human trapped. He’s one of the creators and got trapped during like a beta testing? He pretends to be an AI so the other characters feel like there is a hope within and don’t hate him for “being the ones who got them stuck” basically if he’s someone who made the game. I’m not sure how bubble would fit in tho with my mini theory, or if bubble is the real AI NPC thing- idk it’s a dumb theory I made

    @JacquelynDS 25 днів тому +1

    If we're to go off of the Last Supper imagery for the characters and their biblical counterparts, then while Jax has the hallmarks of Judas, he's in the wrong space. Judas was on the left side of Jesus in the painting, think where Gangle and Kinger are. And as much as it could be an error, Gooseworks doesn't seem like they'd let something that big slip. That means Jax could be one of possibly three figures: Philip, James Major or Thomas.
    Philip doesn't really fit, after all he's a methodical logician, who convinced others to follow Jesus and distributed the fish and bread during the miracle. He could be James Major, who was one of the three disciples who was present for the Transfiguration. That was when Jesus was on a mountain top and became all radiant with glory and such. That could be a hint to Pomni's eventual ascension. It could also be a hint that he gets Pomni to "transform" into an Abstracted version of herself. However, I think the most plausible of the three if this route is correct is Thomas. Or as we better know him as *Doubting* Thomas.
    Doubting Thomas is an incredibly important figure, as he represents the skeptics. He refused to believe that Jesus had been resurrected until he could feel his wounds and see him with his own eyes. Jax seems like the kind of individual who's disillusioned with what he's experiencing, especially in the Digital Circus. His fascination with breaking the worlds rules and causing chaos is like a toddler testing their limits. Seeing how much their world can take. Jax is skeptical about the world he now lives in and takes to breaking it and doubting it's worldbuilding, as a means to seek joy and intrigue. Doubting Thomas even has roots in Gnosticism due to many Gnostic authors being insistent that he never even examined Jesus. His story as a whole is to teach about the importance of faith, of having faith *in* someone.
    If this is the route he's going, and he's supposed to represent the cynical nuts who are supposed to be punished in this reality, then his leap of faith, his lesson in faith, is to trust in Pomni, and by extension, the others.. To put his cynical and violence driven antics aside to get the best ending. And for added food for thought, Thomas is a *martyr.*

    my quick answer to this is that caine is god to candy world which make sense cause he legit created the world as an adventure for his fellow circus mate, what curious me more is that since caine are able to create anything/everything in the digital world doesnt mean that caine is part of the digital creation itself? or caine most likely to be the very first human to be transported into the digital world and have already been through alot till the point he became insane and develop a whole new character for himself which is the ringmaster and create this whole circus gig for even more human that stumble on so he can guide them to adapt to their new life more then just being abstracted and get thrown in the cellar among other's human in the past
