In order to prevent spoilers

The mods need to make it so that every post must be filtered by mods before being allowed to be posted to the page. That is what the mods need to do in order to make it so people don't get spoiled. People have already promised to spoil things for others, so that is the action that must be taken. I've said this in other TADC subreddits, and I'm saying it here.

REMINDER

If you are going to see the TADC movie in theaters, that's great! I hope you have fun. But PLEEASSEEEEEEE put any thoughts you have on it in r/TADCEp9Spoilers , NOT in the regular tadc subreddits.

I know we're still probably gonna get spoiled, but reddit is going to be the only social media I'm on from June 4 - June 19 because I have hope of people using r/TADCEp9Spoilers instead of the normal subreddits.

And to the people like me, when on reddit from June 4 - June 19, I suggest looking at the subreddit name before looking at the post if possible.

Anyways this is the internet so I'm probably gonna get jumped for some reason by posting this but YAY

He's your favorite character but you couldn't tell that speech to Pomni was him literally lying through his teeth?

The very fact Jax wants to 1. Be seen as an irredeemable villain (episode 6) 2. Abstract due to being depressed (episode 7) is exactly why I believe neither should or will happen.

Hell in the image shown, he's literally about to cry because he feels so guilty for what he said to Pomni to the point where he has a panic attack. I don't believe for a second Jax is going to be the big bad final villain who tortures the cast, because that will literally be a repeat of what just happened with Caine

What if TADC voice cast did a live-reading of I Have No Mouth, And I Must Scream?

After watching several videos related to both TADC and its original inspiration written by Harlan Ellison, outa nowhere I thought to myself, what if all the main voice actors of TADC got together and did sort of a read-aloud or live reading (like maybe in a livestream on a Discord group call) of the original story, I Have No Mouth, And I Must Scream?

Not only that, but what if the way they did it is they took turns reading certain lines spoken by certain characters from the book, and each individual voice actor only reads lines from specific characters that their own voiced characters from TADC were directly based on? In this case...

The voice of Caine, Alex Rochon reads the lines of AM

The voice of Jax, Michael Kovach reads the lines of Ted (who is also the narrator of the story)

The voice of Ragatha, Amanda Hufford reads the lines of Eleanor

The voice of Kinger, Sean Chiplock reads the lines of Nimdok

The voice of Gangle, Marissa Lenti reads the lines of Gorrister

The voice of Zooble, Ashley Nichols reads the lines of Benny

Last time I checked, Pomni isn't directly based/inspired by any characters from the story, so IDK if there'd be anything for Lizzie Freeman to contribute or read from the book, or if she'd just be left out of it altogether.

Anyway here's the catch, when each of TADC's cast members take turns reading the lines of those assigned roles, they read them while talking in their own TADC characters' voices. NGL I can only imagine how hilarious that would be, considering some of the characters' personalities from the original book are noticeably quite different from TADC's characters based on them, you'd often hear those characters say things they normally wouldn't most of the time (if at all), and those who've read/heard the original story know that there are some pretty [%$👀!#]'ed up lines and moments from the story, which will certainly make for some hysterically funny moments, both for the audience and the cast members themselves. I can already picture them constantly breaking character and bursting into uncontrollable laughter after reading certain lines! IDK about you, but I'd love to see this happen at some point!

What do you guys think? Would you like to see them do this as well? If so, do you think they should read from the pages of the original book, or perhaps the comic book adaptation of it so they can better follow each specific character's lines of dialogue while also seeing what they're doing at the same time? (I'd imagine they'd also have some rather interesting reactions to certain comic panels as well. XD)

What is actually the point of Caine's all seeing eyes?

It's so inconsistent like the cast are able to do and say things that caine is completely unaware of and consistently didn't know where characters were yet there are times where he IS aware where they are and what they are doing such as him getting Pomni out in the void and such

like the whole "Where's Kinger?" or him not knowing where Zooble was or Not Knowing their plan in episode 8

I don't believe Jax is going to push Kinger into the void

This theory has been getting increasingly popular leading up to episode 9, but I don't believe its going to happen.

For starter's, the primary reason why so many believe it is they point to Gooseworx's statement of we'll see the worst thing Jax has done and many claiming it'll be something "unforgivable". Not only has Gooseworx never said it'd be unforgivable, she also said that before episode 2 even came out. Furthermore, she confirmed in a livestream with Disappearing Guy's VA that she didn't have any specific moment in mind when she answered that, saying her pciks would have been presisng the button, telling Pomni he would forget about her or unleashing The Fudge.

Furthermore, her statement of "there are a few lines he won't cross" to if there's anything awful he won't do. I can 100% see Jax lashing out in the finale at the other's but straight up shoving Kinger into the void? No. He's not going to just try and murder someone out of the blue because he's upset.

A lot of people point to the scene where he threw the bowling ball at Kinger but in that scene he was protecting him and Gangle from Kaufmo. Furthermore, judging from the shots of Ragatha, Pomni, Gangle and Zooble in the trailer when the gang is seperated and sitting, they seem moderately upset at their situation, but not outright mourning like you'd expect them to be if one of them just died.

Jax already had his resolution with Zooble in episode 8, where its established while they hate him, they still care for him. The cafe scene of him looking at Gangle and him admitting everything is real suggests he will apologize to her (him isolating in the photo after is 100% guilt). Since we're getting Ribbit flashbacks, we'll 100% see his relationship with Ragatha explained in the finale. And the show focuses on him and Pomni, so obviously they'll get focus too. Considering Kinger helped Pomni in episode 3 when sane and then Ragatha in episode 6, it'd be fitting if he finishes with Jax, as he's the only player Jax hasn't had a major interaction with. I don't see any of the players dying in this show. And this theory feels similar to the "Jax ran over a kid" theory in people alwyas jumping to the MOST extreme possible option with the character to paint him as some big bad villain (same for assuming the promotional material confirms he's the final villain when its likely going to just be exploring his past and inside his head).

Why Caine doesn’t allow sex in the circus…

At first I thought that it was because either he didn’t have enough data to know how sex worked or his coding prevented him from doing such due to censorship but now I’m starting to wonder if it’s simply because he finds it disgusting? I mean that very same episode establishes shortly after that Caine himself is fully capable of swearing even though he has a swear filter on everyone and boasts about the circus being a place for ‘all ages’. To me, it’s like Gooseworx is hinting that Caine can very easily remove these restrictions, he just won’t because HE’S the one who put them there in the first place. Not to mention he very clearly looks MORTIFIED by what Zooble is about to ask for as if he’s heard it before and is just DREADING the answer lol

There's a darker reason caine made them forget their names. (A theory)

So in one of the newest episodes we find out that the group not being able to remember their real names isn't an accident or coincidence but actually an intentional decision caine made. Maybe this isn't just because he's a sadistic asshole but actually an important decision. Maybe them figuring out their names has something to do with them escaping. Maybe caine doesn't let/make people abstract until they found out things he doesn't want them to know. The show starts with us finding out they don't intentionally enter the circus but yet randomly pop in without choice, or maybe they did have a choice but it got erased along with other information. Leaning on this there are multiple theories one of them being maybe they were given directions on how to leave/get out, maybe there were tempted, maybe they were told it was a game, maybe there were told they can leave whenever before entering, if so maybe their names are key details, because when you thin .of trying to help someone gain their memory you start with reminding them of their name, then their interests, then different things about their life's. I have many more theories, some of which contradict each other, but since we don't have a 100%, confirmed ending until episode 9 comes out I'll keep making my little theorie.

The bubble scene and "morse code"

i honestly hate when ppl say "oh but goose likes to lie" SO? it doesnt mean every damn word is a lie bro. and she has Literally a VIDEO proving, she is not even saying that the theory is not true, she is just showing what she does in this scene, she don't SAY something about this "theory"(for not said headcanon), the fact that the people said this just show that them don't know how morse code work. Sorry, i'm a bit angry, I'M A BIT ANGRY. i'm just can't hold on so many people saying that goose is lying, and saying it's a morse code. "I don't trust goose", oh but a random tiktok/youtube video do you trust, right, golden rosemary?

Hot(?) take; I hope this is the end of Caine's story

And I don't mean he shouldn't get any flashbacks in episode 9 or anything. But I don't want him to get revivied and have an happy ending with the cast. There are several reasons why

  1. Firstly, a sense of stakes. Judging from the traier for the finale, things will actually be getting serious and deep now. Having the players just bring Caine back to fix everything feels way too cheap and easy. I like there being consequences, especially knowing this happened just because Kinger accidentally hit the wrong key.

  2. His ending is fitting. Caine's story was always set-up as a tragedy, where he was doomed. For him to be someone who wanted to matter so much only to get wiped out like he didn't existence by accident is poetic. Furthermore, its also karma because its the same fate he inflicted on Gummigoo and Abel. Unlike them, he doesn't even get a big exit, its just immediate deletion like a bubble popping.

  3. But primarily, Caine shows the consequences of when you remain stagnant. Digital Circus is about finding meaning in a stagnant LIFE. While their life might be stagnant, the circus members are all able to grow throughout the story and improve themselves. Caine's refusal to listen, and failing to ever make connections with anyone, leads him being unable to change or grow until its too late.

Many fans expected Jax to to be the person who abstracts in the story to show the consequences of refusing to ever change. But in actuality, it was Caine. Caine has flaws from pretty much every circus member (forgetful like Kinger, masks emotions like Gangle, people pleasing like Ragatha, hates his existence like Zooble and struggles to bond with other's like Jax), but unlike them, he lacks the humanity to realize where he's wrong and better himself. Jax's arc could've ended in episode 7 where he abstracts after isolating himself to show the consequences of refusing to let othe's in but he was saved. Caine is the true antithesis to the show's message, while its more likely Jax's character will serve as the ultimate validation of it.

The fake Exit/Able Episode

Maybe Caine wasn't giving them a fake Exit adventure to fuck with them but because he was programmed to give them what they want, it's implied in an earlier episode that he may not know/understand how to let them leave, so instead he gives them a chance to live out their dream.to his best ability, maybe that's why in the end (some say he "mind controlled" Jax into hitting the button via forced/induced flashback) because is some weird/twisted way of thinking it was him letting their hopes down in a more gentle way than if they pressed the exit for nothing, at least this way the second the button was hit they knew they weren't leaving. Idk

Maybe an a/u reason for the circus being created

I wonder if in the show, whoever programmed the circus took inspiration of the concept of the circus being a digital world people can pop into and make friends, with randomized names and fun adventures to go on.

The Fast Food Episode

I heard someone say that when gummygoo was leaving he gave a nod or look to pomni almost indicating he DOES remember her, I'm wondering if it's simply to protect their peace in hopes she forgets him, or maybe he pretends he doesn't remember for the same reason able pretends to be ignorant to caine in the beginning, especially with the fact caine says no NPCs allowed in the circus because ehe might lose track of who's real, maybe gummygoo is real but is playing an npc to stay off caine radar or at least pretending for now.
