the first rule of tragedy is to have fun and be yourself. the second is to think about the themes forever and ever

// csm 163 spoilers but

have mentioned earlier the unusual gravity of the gendered references the past few chapters. eyepatch's mini-monologue around adultery, the possessed woman-icon equation (for example: fans engaging with denji, barem engaging with makima. the idol whose purity is valued). on screen again we see marriage mentioned in reference to an idol.

"kissing and sex count as adultery," the fan claims. constraining certain forms of intimacy as explicitly meaningful within gendered structure ---- here made present rules -- the same rules governing relationships that nayuta in her role as control and also the location of [family] sets down in order for denji to bring the Woman (asa) home. the same rules that yoru violates for asa through the kiss, the kiss that's overwritten out of narrative by control's memory modification.

"i can't sleep at night, suicidal thoughts" this torment experienced by the fan. gendered structure renders asa outside the narrative frame and we see her discuss her darkest thoughts with yoru. viewing this alongside her concurrent inability to occupy the protagonist role, her emptiness when confronted with denji (associated with her through gender role "boyfriend"/"csm's woman") makes this feel significant. she is pushed into the role of the fan.

"i keep asking myself who to blame." - the requisition of blame and justice that underly conversations with both yuko and eyepatch. and asa's cat and criminal. who will she next weaponise? who will yuko channel her anger at the system through? external assignment of blame.

the channel concludes that the proof of adultery is someone's editing & ends up believing in the idol. this idolatry obscures the horrific news of the everyday. becomes a wholesome story of sorts -- Horror because narrative construction is sth fjmt problematises. they all feel like they're dreaming when confronted with the narrative absurdity of it! it confounds them. an analogue can be drawn here between denji not showing up for the date, & nayuta's memory editing.

it hints at something, something perhaps even commenting metatextually on how the fandom views asa & denji's relationship. i'm not sure if this means anything re: the story's direction in itself. but i think dreams are important because they occur in consonance with the In world narrative (of blame, of storytelling) & this is something kiga employs with hunger too!

also thinking about how these dreams are dealt with in this chapter. this is more of a tonal observation but i find it interesting how their cacophonies jarr against each other, one after another, a hollowness and unfinishedness that frustrates. this culminates in ball kicking -- a reiteration of part one: there an easy revenge based upon himeno's death, a revenge of apportioning blame, of externalities. here the violence is turned upon the idolised body of the CSM, denji -- all within a space that conjures up similarities to the eternity devil arc: making manifest the cyclical form inherent to chainsaw man's themes.
