after a “gentle” request from “ghid,” “I” have “decided” to reread “The Wild Masks” in its entirety, including everyone’s little dropdowns. Just gonna type garbage as I go along and maybe some of it will stick to the wall like the stains from the food I spat out when watching “my deer friend nokotan” after I almost made Ghid sit through it
oh no what have the TTV boards been saying that could make me laugh when I take it out of context
when you don’t pay for the sight dlc (I only got the free trial so I’m color blind)
we are all Ghid rip-offs on the inside
it’s an order
me when i put on a shirt i like but my mom says it makes me look stupid
My reaction when I eat something rancid
My reaction when I eat something else rancid
we are all Ghid rip-offs on the inside
I think I just committed a heresy for the sake of a joke
meat and potatoes (i do not like potatoes and i have a bad reaction to most meat)
Chapter 4 because 1-3 are not good enough for me
me talking about my organ collectors
So they summon a demon with his eyes
…and Wild is the Treacherous One…
Combined with afore-quoted quote and the fact Wild wears an Oni mask (hey is that a Ninjago reference), I’m guessing Wild was originally a part of some group that did something with Oni/demons (they’re kind of the same, aren’t they?) but left it presumably to fight against it in pursuit of not evil stuff.
Now we’re told the mask has lifeless eyes but that’s just a general thing that masks tend to do. I’ve got a Hordika mask that’s doing that right now. Hot take that I know will get disproven but it’s fun to think about - Wild is not completely dead or fried or whatever from the blast. Aight now that I’ve said the dumb forget I said it.
Overall Chapter 4 seems to just lay the groundwork (go figure) but I don’t know enough about
ghid the link for chapter 5 don’t work so good
Chapter 5 yippee
wrong, everyone looks good in a tie… silly race
besides, we all like a little ghid rip-off

guys trust me i speak japanese
someone clearly doesn’t like fish
Good chapter, got more Kohaku. As for Tone needing a job, it’s a cover I’m sure. Ren just wants to steal all the fish from his place of employment.
Chapter five but different
either I called it or I’m wrong
I really hope I called it, maybe Wild is the Ghid mask
no that wouldn’t make sense, clearly Ghid would want his character to have its own consciousness and I don’t think he likes Wild_Toa enough
Well if NOTa’s mask consciousness theory is true then my theory about Wild still being alive is wrong. At the same time maybe Ren did know about the mask-alive thing and just let Wild die or something idk
aight that’s all I got for whatever chapter this is, somehow my organization in this post got mucked up
chopper styx
so Ren was a student or something? and yeah them student loans will get ya if you don’t get a good interest rate

There’s only a few people who know Tone’s on Fred’s payroll, so the rat is most likely one of them. The list I’ve got is:
- Ren
- Kohaku
- Fred
- Tooru (maybe? he works there too)
- Tone and the rest of the Wild Masks
I can’t remember if we ever get the name later in the story, but right now the only thing I can say is there’s a rat in the fish store or in the Wild Masks itself. Or it’s that dude with the future-sight mask.
hey is that the miney
Maybe Ren and Kohaku went to college together or something?
So the demon is still extant. That’s very interesting… Wild either died a meaningless death or he prevented the demon from entering the world, only to have this new group of baddies try to summon the demon again.
If the demon is summoned through those aforementioned eyes, this new group’s first priority would also be those eyes. At this point I don’t know who has them but if I’m guessing the Wild Masks have at least some idea of where they are.
GHIIIIIID DON’T LEAVE ME HERE
Toan said… “Toan, Rukah, NOTaHFfan, Racie02, Cordax, wild_toa, and Ghid” have all appeared in the story, so either he missed me or we’re all missing me or Ghid killed me and didn’t want to write about it
he may have written it before me but let it be known i had the idea before i read NOTa talking about it
this is the ultimate shooowwdooowwwn of the TTV message boards
copter sven
oh no are you going to hit me with psychological damage relating to my past trauma
hey is that the miney
Probably the same group as before. For some reason, though, they’re going after specifically Kohaku, Tone, and Corey? My guess is the intended target is the fish costume.
hey is that the miney
it was not the miney
At this point Makuei seems very shady. He knows what’s up with the Wild Masks, owns the store, and is presumably a powerful man (you don’t get called a gentleman every day just because you own a fish store). He easily could have slipped info about Tone to the gang or he put the hit out himself.
The one thing is… what does he want with the demon if he is indeed the one who sent the goons? What does the demon do?
I’m guessing Ren didn’t come home.
As a white wall enthusiast I can confirm it is a very nice wall.
This post is getting too long for me to even be able to reread it, so I’m just gonna ask now… is that demon mask that Ren has the thing that the eyes go to? Put the eyes in the mask and you got a demon? Kind of like instant ramen but instead of noodles it’s demons capable of mass destruction.
capítulo ocho
I think this is a flashback chapter. Wonder what gave it away. Anyways.
No Ghid I don’t think I will
“only”
Welp here’s Mr. Makuei’s introduction and apparently he’s connected with the Japanese organized crime scene more than we originally thought (well more than I originally thought).
“The wicked ones” is probably some sort of criminal organization/ancient cult. Also, we learn that the Demon mask is separate from the eyes now, rendering my previous theory wrong. Did we learn where the demon mask was when Wild was killed?
So far Makuei isn’t sounding as bad as possible but “cleansing the wound” probably means something different than what we would hope
Looks like the deal here is that the Wild Masks get to avenge their former leader, Wild, with the help of Makuei, and in return the Masks will do some sort of thing for Makuei.
If Makuei is working with them, though, why would he snitch out Tone’s new place of employment to a gang? Is he cleaning up loose ends or did we get the wrong guy?
Miscellaneous note. NOTa said this about Ren’s identity and I never caught on before. I assumed “T” stood for Tone and the rest of the Wild Masks just had nicknames or were disliked by their aprents. Now I know to keep a look out for pseudonyms.
No one’s found me at this point yet so I think so far I haven’t appeared. Hey Ghid, am I Waldo or something because where’s
also the link to chapter 9 doesn’t work
chapter 9 (i am not creative)
Possible callback to the “Scars” chapter earlier?

My Spanish teacher said that’s no excuse to not learn another language, smh my head Ghid you’re promoting American monolingualism 
So the mask killed all the guys in the apartment? So maybe the demon was partially summoned before but got stuck in limbo, caught between the mask and the real world. Alternatively, it could be what’s left of Wild mixing with the demon, like they were forced together during the ritual (what an unhappy marriage)/
hey is that the miney
Ok that’s a relief, I’m not going crazy. If it did actually refer to Ren I would’ve lost it.
If he did move there because he thought the godzilla films were real, and if I’m godzilla, does that mean Wild would have moved to Tokyo because of a fixation on me? Best theory ever created, right there.
chapter double-digit number #1
I’m getting to chapter 10 now and as far as I’ve seen no one has pinged me to tell me I’ve appeared. Either I’m reading this stuff too late or we’re all incompetent or I’m incompetent or all of the above or I’m just not even here.
hey is that the miney
hey is that th- wait a minute I think I know who that is, it’s clearly Bioman

So there’s a plot to make Corey a mole? Maybe that HSH topic wasn’t so far off.
hey is that the miney
false alarm it was just tone
Gonna be perfectly honest… I think I skipped this chapter when it came out. I don’t remember this at all, but from the looks of it there was some figure in the past that the Wild Masks all knew that has suddenly shown his face.
So Ren knows this guy? Even bigger bad news. Tone did something to this guy to take him out of Ren’s life, probably because Ren was too nice judging off of the other dialogue. If I had to take a guess, I’d say he’s got something to do with Corey’s family because Tone says Ren might tell Corey some of what the dude said in interrogation. Maybe he’s the one who orphaned Corey?
Heavens above help us
honestly same
honestly… wait a minute
because “wild” is the name of a character, duh 
when I learned this my immediate thought was some monarch over in France was playing, getting his butt handed to him, and he needed a quick getaway for his king… so he made up a new move and just said the English made it up. Meanwhile, in England, the king does the same thing and blames the French.
hey i haven’t gotten there yet ghid stop it
So… is Oisim not a double agent? What’s his deal then? Why do we get a suspicious scene in which Oisim is apparently deferred to by a villain?

i started writing this at 3:13 in the morning, it’s like opposite ghid, this can’t be a good sign
Ok 3 days after starting this huge reply I’m going to post it so people can actually try to read it. I’m at about the halfway point anyways, so maybe now Ghid can stop laughing at me for not reading it.
TL;DR - Tonight on Top Gear:
I struggle to find myself,
Ghid gets taken out of context,
And NOTa struggles to find what pinged him in my post.
