Comment on [Episode] Gnosia - Episode 1 discussion

Dang, I’m hooked. This is the kind of suspense premise I am into.
I have seen a few theories floating around. I particular like the one about how they are all Gnosia.
Whatever the twist, I find the ship’s computer - LeVi - suspicious. I won’t be surprised if it gets revealed to be the final, real antagonist.

I agree that the ship’s computer seems particularly suspicious. I mean, the rational thing to do in their situation would be to break out the ship’s EVA gear (presumably it has some), have each person leave the ship one at a time, and see which one is outside when the gnosia trace disappears. Either the gnosia will break before it’s their turn, or you move the ship away and leave them floating in the void until their air runs out. Anyway, the whole voting situation is bizarre and contrived (in a way that might have worked in the original game, where the setup was just an excuse for the game mechanics, but does not here) and the computer seems to be forcing it.
It’s interesting that the initial group consists of two women, two enbies (apparently), and one undisclosed-probably-enby (Yuri). I’m still ruminating on why they made that choice.

There’s also the fact that the people can be un-frozen, so why not freeze and unfreeze people one at a time as you discover whether they’re Gnosia? That way the humans will be the majority the whole time.

Yeah, that was the other thing. Maybe they don’t have the equipment needed to unfreeze someone safely aboard?
