HP Lovecraft's Nyarlathotep also getting the moe treatment

This is simply unfathomable, even to an intellectual such as myself. To see such a beautiful work of literature portrayed in such a childish form, it summons abyssal demons from the depths of ancient worlds the likes no member of our doomed species can imagine.
But, it was simply a tribute, apparently, so there is no need to discuss this further.

Demons still haunting you huh?

A sad tale indeed, I saw my inevitable death as it swooped dangerously close to myself, and I avoided it by doing something so abysmal it shall not be discussed here.
As for now, I must retire to my chambers, we shall meet again.
[QUOTE=ExplodingGuy;24065830]Now this is complete bullshit eviscerating the entirety of Lovecraft's works just for some dumb ass anime show? Fucking revolting, not is it blatant copyright infringement, but fucking plagiarism. Whomever decided this must have absolutely no ability to come up with content for themselves; and resorts to stealing from one of the greatest writers of history in order to make his show seem watchable.[/QUOTE]
This is why I hate people who post after reading the OP and nothing else.
:wtc:
This is terrible, yet I want to watch it when it airs...

The only way this can be decent in any way is if there are Lovecraft jokes and no kawaii-desu shit in it.
But yeah it's actually just them making a tribute to H.P. Lovecraft. They aren't transferring the character into the show or anything.
Even though it's been said like 5 times, I just felt the need to re-state that.

Some of Lovecraft's stories have fallen into public domain

this thread summed up
on that sidenote I still don't think this will be any good
so I'm going to stay away from it
God, they just used the name, and everybody is flipping shit.

And if any of you actually read the article you would know that.

He was also anti semitic and a racial purist while being married to a Russian Jew so the fuck do I know.[/QUOTE]
Maybe he married her ironically.
[sp]I'd photoshop hipster glasses and hair onto Lovecraft but finding the glasses was taking too goddamn long[/sp]

So it's the name only?
Thank god.
If it was some sort of kid-friendly anime Nyarlathotep, lovecraft would have span in his grave so fast, he would have burrowed out by now.
Maybe at some point when the male main character tries to rape her(IT WILL HAPPEN AND YOU KNOW IT!)she turns into that gorey octopus form on the last page and F***S SHIT UP.
That would be cool.
Also,Cthulhu.CTHULHU HAS TO BE IN IT OR IT SUCKS.

OOOH SHIT,LOOK WHAT I FOUND IN THE COMMENTS SECTION OF THE SOURCE:
"From the Japanese wikipage about Nyaruko:
Kuu-ko=The short name of Cthugha, Nyaru-ko's friend.
Hasutaa=Mahiro's boyfriend
Yog-sensei=Yog sothoth, Nyaruko's teacher.
Shubnigurath Sensei=Gynecologist
I WISH I WAS JOKING BUT I'M NOT."
Oh dicksicles.
Shubnigurath Sensei :v:
Also,who's "Cthugha"?Is he another name of Cthulhu?

You're a massive idiot.
If you find yourself in a dangerous alien environment or situation, do you:
A) Try and escape
B) Kill yourself
C) Get out a thesaurus and write your memoirs
If you answered A or B then you are unsuitable as a Lovecraftian protagonist.

Have you read any Lovecraft, or are you just rolling out incredibly hyperbolised versions of stock criticisms against him?
[QUOTE=Splurgy_A;24083696]Have you read any Lovecraft, or are you just rolling out incredibly hyperbolised versions of stock criticisms against him?[/QUOTE]
Yes I've read some of his stories. I didn't like them.
bet if they didn't use that name no one would give a shit
it's like how people got so mad at ff12 for not being like a final fantasy when if they named it some other thing no one would have cared

That's correct. If the script writers hadn't have named a character after Nyarlathotep, there wouldn't be a news story about the script writers naming a character after Nyarlathotep, in the same way that if the Titanic hadn't of sunk, there wouldn't have been a news story about the Titanic sinking

watch out for those jews and black people that you're afraid of
I went through this whole thread waiting to see some JohnnyMo1 rage. Not only did I see none, but he hasn't posted at all here.
I'm disappointed.
I leave for two fucking days and the world turns to shit
