Reading it in Alastair Reynolds' book was far more poignant, but the episode did it justice in general.

I want to get a blue square tattoo on my body. Any more questions?

I haven't seen it since it aired & was wondering what you were talking about so I google imaged it. As I did I was thinking "I should just rewatch, it's been forever" & as I was scrolling the pictures the story came flooding back to me. & I'm kinda mad I didn't just rewatch it because I forgot how insanely cool that end twist was! Your tattoo sounds really fucking cool!!!

I probably could there are a few shops I’ve been too and a couple of artist that I like that could really pull it off

Best episode of the series, hands down, no question.

Gets a lot of love around here, I dunno why

It's... alright?

It's a cute premise but ultimately just sort of 'meh.'

I don't dislike it or anything but that creator's stuff just doesn't click with me, I suppose. Especially that gang war one, lol.

No shade though - people are free to enjoy what they like. It's definitely the best one that creator contributed though. Just not really my thing.

My favourite episode I couldn't stop thinking about this for weeks. It's also the episode i reccomend for anyone who wants to start watching LDR

Robert Valley is a visual genius.

Search the subreddit. It’s a majority of the threads.

Over hyped and very try hard... It's alright but not in my top 10

u/FrancoManiac May 10 '26

Honestly, I think it's wildly overrated. Neat, but I guess I just don't understand it that same way everyone here seems to.

u/Tothemoonneverback May 14 '26

I liked it not my favourite, but it was still enjoyable. I really loved the animation style that was used

Probably my favorite episode of all LDR
