#dmmd alpha clear
aobabes · 10 months
Text
I've noticed that Clear gets beat up a lot in his route. Aside from the Clearao slapstick comedy and the android/human love story + angst, the rest of it was Toue indirectly abusing Clear; he allowed his associates to beat up Clear and to pour sulfuric acid on his face and programed the alphas to beat up Clear multiple times and each time it's just uncomfortably long? And he's incapable of fighting back every time unless Aoba is in immediate danger. And it's only when he destroys his key lock, which directly leads to his death, that he's able to defend himself. I love Clear's route, but I have to always skip those parts because it just gives me the ick. Speaking of things that give me the ick, I don't think anyone has talked about this throughout my time being in the dmmd fandom. In his bad end, Clear is enforcing the trauma Toue gave him onto Aoba as a means to make them more alike.
When you put into perspective the way Clear is talking about how Toue makes him feel and how he can't fight back against him, you start to realize that Clear is basically treating Aoba like how Toue impliedly treats him and his brothers. You can tell because the way Aoba feels about Clear's treatment of him is exactly how Clear feels about Toue.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Clear wants to make Aoba like him, like how he sees himself, like how Toue's abuse has made him perceive himself. He takes Aoba's sight to remove his window to the outside world and to deny him of any unnecessary knowledge because all Aoba needs to know is Clear. He removes Aoba's limbs to take away his sense of freedom, his free will, and to make it impossible for him to escape. He removes Aoba's vocal cords because, to Clear, he doesn't need something that allows him to make any choices and he's quite literally silencing him. Since being reprogrammed, for two months all Clear knew was Toue and the inner walls of Oval Tower before he finally granted him permission to see Aoba. Clear, being a machine created by Toue, has no freedom, no free will, and cannot escape considering he's physically incapable of defying Toue. Clear was never allowed a choice, given a say in anything, nor allowed to voice what he wanted, unless Toue approved of it first. Clear is taking Toue's place whilst Aoba has taken Clear's place.
Clear wants to make Aoba share the same pain he's endured, and more than anything he wants Aoba to be a "living doll" like he is. He wants to turn Aoba into a mirrored image of his trauma so that he doesn't feel completely alone.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Even Clear begging Aoba to say his name and wanting to hear his voice in the r-word scene mirrors Toue being so obsessed with Clear denying him as his master and wanting to know why. Clear knew that if he applied enough force/pain onto Aoba that he'd eventually give him what he wanted in that scene. That always stood out to me because Clear is an android and androids are learning ais given human-looking models. Clear's grandpa and Aoba taught him how to be human and what it means to have emotions, to be alive. Toue reprogramming him, taking all of that away from him, what does he have left to learn anything from other than Toue's abuse? How else would he know that denying Aoba the hope of ever escaping, the freedom of choice, and the free will to fight back would eventually make him give up and submit to him after being reunited with him after two whole months of being separated? Who else would teach him that, if not his master, Toue?
I know this isn't my usual dmmd rambling post, but I can't only talk about the positives of dmmd without bringing up the bad ends sometimes. Because they're unfortunately just as beautifully written as the good ends. Taking a character like Clear, who's entire character arc was about claiming free will, the freedom of choice, and what it means to live only to witness all of that taken away from him in the form of watching him victimize his lover the same way he was victimized really portrays abusive power dynamics, Stockholm syndrome, unhealthy coping mechanisms, and trauma responses so perfectly.

DRAMAtical Murder > Sprites [JAST USA Release, 2021]
I'm quite sure other folks have pulled the sprites from this game before, but I figured I'd still do it anyway just for the sake of completion. Lots of different sizes & crops for these bad boys, so feel free to take your pick. (Clear even comes with a whole host of emotion assets that you can add to anyone else!) These are great for fan games, sprite edits, or making a big cardboard cutout to bring on dates.
Package details & links are under the cut, or you can click here for a static page.
Sprites — [ L I N K ] > Includes sprites for Aoba, major characters [Clear, Koujaku, Mink, Noiz, Ren, Trip, & Virus], other notable characters [Akushima, Alpha, Alpha-2, Haga, Kio, Mio, Mizuki, Nao, Ryuuhou, Sei, Tae, Toue, & Yoshie], Allmates [Beni, Clara, Junker, Tori, Usagimodoki, & Usui], & NPCs > Sprites are organized by character & categorized further by cropping, variant, &/or affiliation > These files contain spoilers for all routes — proceed with caution if you have not yet 100% completed the game
Looking for even more DMMd assets? > [ L I N K ]

Dramatical Murder Battling NU Carnival
As a fan of both Dmmd & Nucarnival, yknow, I just had to.
If the 2 harems were to actually go into hand to hand combat.... Dmmd has only half as many people, Nukani has Kuya & Blade. And Eiden cannot fight period, so it'd be unfair. what i think might be more fair is paired off fights.
Clear vs Blade: Duh i had to do this. OG android vs new generation android. White-haired battle singing autism robot that calls their love interest a nickname vs white-haired battle singing autism robot that calls their love interest a nickname. 2012 sex robot learning human feelings vs 2022 sex robot learning human feelings. Cute service top with a depressing backstory vs cute service top with a depressing backstory. I think Blade would win by a landslide. Assassin Blade's biggest advantage is his durability combined with combat skills. In story (NOT game units) he can deal a shit ton of damage, take a shit ton of hits and instaheals super quickly. Meanwhile Clear also has great combat skills, but slower self healing and he is defective with a history of being damaged. So technically an unfair fight.
Koujaku vs Edmond: Both normal human swordfighters, ofc I also had to do this. I feel like their skills are matched for what they can, however Koujaku is a gang leader and is willing to get rough and Edmond... is a prim and proper(lol) knight for the most part. And if Koujaku went into Beast!jaku mode... well yeah Edmond's definitely lost.
Mink vs Quincy: the 2 big quiet traumatized depressed daddies whose communities died/were killed. I wanna say this would end up being a draw because Mink is a normal human that can be injured or killed, meanwhile Quincy is kind of immortal but has low motivation to fight unless he gets involved. if he had to, I'd imagine Quincy is supernaturally stronger though.
Rhyme Ren vs Garu/Karu: ok I'm just pitting them against each other cause they're the Dogs. However, although Garu/Karu is a survivalist, their stamina SUCKS & their fighting seems just passable. I love garu&karu, but Ren could 1HKO them. (Ren is also bigger, stronger, and more experienced than them so this is also an unfair fight.)
Noiz vs Dante: Originally I was gonna pair Noiz with Rei since they're both slightly apathetic special interest knowledge people, but Rei isn't really a melee hand to hand combat fighter. Dante can fight, and he has an advantage being bigger, more muscular, & having magic powers. (Interestingly, they're also both the youngest in their respective casts haha.)
Aoba vs Eiden...? The protagonists. However, this is also unfair fight cause um Eiden can't fight for shit and was recently a desk job worker lol. Whereas Aoba was a helluva punk, can still fight on his own, and has supernatural powers.
Ok now for fights that might be on even skill fighting levels and not just pairs.
Blade vs Scratch gang + the Alphas: Considering that Blade has been able to level entire battle fields and kill multiple sorcerers, I think this might give him a tough fight, even if he wins in the end. I will say, this also might depend on what weapons Scratch are carrying and how bulletproof Blade is. The "essence conductors"/guns got taken away before we can see how Blade reacts to them, but if Scratch had their guns, they might be able to take out Blade. (We don't usually see Dry Juice or Benishigure use guns, so I mention Scratch).
Kuya vs Aoba, Sei, Clear, & the Alphas: Technically, Kuya is also far too powerful, however I don't think Kuya is ever seen doing weapon or hand to hand combat fighting. So if Aoba & Sei can subdue his magic.... then Clear & the Alphas could pummel his old man body xD
Rhyme Ren vs Olivine: Nice smart guys with super powers and also very buff. I think people forgot that Olivine is Strongk as heck. Not sure who would win, but Ren is more offensive focused (although Ren has a pretty good hp/shield in Rhyme) whereas every time Olivine fights he's more defensive/support focused (but still seems to pack a punch). Let me know if you have thoughts.
Aoba vs Garu/Karu: Ok not just because they're both feisty ukes who are the shortest in the cast with fantasy DID, but they are also speedsters, rely on kicks a lot, frequently faint a lot, and have low stamina. So i feel like this fight is more evenly matched than against Eiden or Ren. It'll also be interesting cause both Reason!Aoba & Desire!Aoba would be willing to fight rough, whereas Garu is not & only Karu would be willing to fight rough. However Desire!Aoba would be willing to use Scrap on Garu/Karu whereas Reason!Aoba would not. Also, Aoba is 7cm taller than Garu/Karu, but Garu/Karu are significantly more muscular than Aoba everywhere. I feel like whoever runs out of stamina first will be the loser.
Clear vs Edmond or Dante: xD I just wanted Clear to be able to beat someone. And he was able to beat many cops & guards before and Edmond is basically a cop.
Eiden vs Ren in Sei's body: I also wanted Eiden to be able to win against someone haha. And Ren in Sei's body doesn't have Sei's powers, so they can probably do some comedic whacks at each other haha.
I know I've left out Yakumo, Rei, Aster, and Morvay. But i couldn't come up with anything for them, esp since they're more magical than melee combat (and not the same level as Kuya). Anyone have suggestions?

Sorry for the lack of art(I’ll post a sketch to make up for it)
Tumblr media
This is probably just me being overdramatic but I feel the need to overcompensate on my interests because if I don’t I may not be able to consider myself a real fan(since I’m quite into it but I don’t really think about it 24/7, really melodramatic I’m sorry)
Most importantly, DMMD art :D(If you’re wondering the Alpha tag wouldn’t show up so I had to use Clear’s)

Toue is still a dumb bitch.
He literally programmed these alphas or all the androids to WANT control.
The alphas literally said that they'll have all humans be their servants. UH IS TOUE NOT CONCERNED??? They might, idk take ove Toue too???
They literally have the power of controlling minds with their voices, what makes Toue so sure they won't form a coup-d'etat???

I think Clear's brothers secretly love Aoba and when they're free from Toue; they may join his love circle thing.
Clear probably will get jealous but then realise they're free now and teach them the ways of Aoba

I find it odd how in all the other routes, Toue lured Aoba and his love interest there to get to Aoba, but in Clear's route, Toue was more focused on Clear than anything else.
Like, he questioned multiple times why Clear rejected him as his master, despite both he and Aoba sharing the same power of Scrap. He said “you went against your own” and included himself in that phrasing but like weren't you the one who said you threw him out because he was a defected model?? Not to mention, you told Clear that you view him as your “child” only to then follow up that statement with “but there are countless replacements for you” but if that's the case then why didn't you just replace Clear with a different alpha model in his bad end?
Why did you keep him specifically if you could just replace him? Do they not all look the same? What makes Clear so special to Toue? Why does Toue want to keep him around? And why did Clear slip up and accidentally call Toue his master in his bad end route only to then autocorrect himself immediately after??
It was implied that before the alphas were made in Clear's image, that it was just Clear, Toue, and the other researchers and Oval Tower workers, Clear's grandpa included. Why did Toue create the alphas in Clear's image if Clear was just a defected android, as good as garbage and deemed useless to Toue and his work? We all know that Toue views Sei and Aoba as his sons in a fucked up abusive sense, that much is evident in how he treats Sei.
But, what about the alphas? What about Clear? They're not his slaves, those would be the residents of Platinum Jail. They're not his children, he treats them far differently than Sei. If they were mere tools used for his research, he would have made an entirely different model after Clear was thrown out, not models that look identical to the same broken machine that failed to give him the results he wanted.
Why did he make Clear? What was his purpose before he was thrown out and why was he deemed defective? Why are the alphas deemed “almost perfect?” What did they do for Toue that Clear didn't do before he was thrown out for him to see them as “almost perfect?” I'm not saying or alluding to anything, I'm just saying it's WEIRD. Like, I'm not the only one who thinks Toue's fascination with Clear is fucking weird, right? Toue Tatsuo is a weird weird man.

more dmmd thinky thoughts
im finally playing the dmmd official english translation & reconnect english patch and i have thinky thoughts. a lot of people call aoba & the dicksquad all gays, but if we take the game canon & translation seriously (I havent watched or played re:code yet so idk on that). then koujaku & aoba/sky blue are technically bi. no opinion on mink, ren (bc he had no interaction with outside people beyond Allmate form), or mizuki. more on noiz & clear later.
koujaku’s obviously a bisexual disaster- ladies man + crush on aoba forever. but aoba/sly blue is an interesting case. (note that in japan, its not uncommon for same sex kid friends to do skinship and aoba’s “fooling around with guys” in noiz’s route was apparently a jast blue mistranslation.) in noiz/clear’s original routes, aoba’s internal monologue implies having had slept with girls before. in virus reconnect english patch, he says young aoba “slept with a lot of girls” and in trip’s reconnect route he said aoba slept with anyone and then has a flashback of young aoba/sly blue offering to fuck a guy but ended up beating him up. ofc virus & trip also kidnapped and is abusing aoba in this moment so we cant trust what they’re saying + maybe mistranslation. now back to present day, koujaku says aoba is really bad with girls, and in noiz’s route, aoba mentions that he hasnt had sex in a very long time. my interpretation of aaaall this. is that koujaku was in the mainland & obvsly didnt know aoba’s punk slutty era, there was the whole rhyme/virus/trip amnesia & aoba forgot that he slept around. or if we take it into the split personality route, then its possible that regular aoba is gay but sly blue was bi.
noiz- ok the only interest he ever shows is towards guys. i’m sure he’s gay. i cant get a read on mink, but i might change my opinion once i’ve done his reconnect route. depending on what kind of indigenous(???) he is, most indigenous cultures were multi-gender/sexualities open so its he’s probably not labeled with anything.
clear... ok so he is tricky but the jast blue discord im in came up with something kinda crazy. so obviously, robots with personality, designed by Toue to blend into society, including having the ability to have sex & ejaculate xDDD The alphas all seem to be male form and clearly their penises are the sturdiest part of their body since that doesnt break or Aoba would have to take a trip to the hospital after Clear’s good ending LOL. (how Aoba didn’t get electrocuted with Clear sparking/short circuiting WHILE INSIDE HIS ASS, idk). so LOL the discord came up with the idea that Toue really liked it up the ass, so he designed robots that he’d like to fuck. so yeah, that’s Clear (or at least his & the alphas programming/design)
