@@nobodybroda3826 Y'know, I've always wondered how the...borderline magical finale happened but that makes a lot of sense. Brother Blood's mental powers are-obviously-based on his mind. And if in his mind Cyborg can't be beat, his powers actually force that into reality. It's like that...I can't remember the anime name, think it's at least related to that one Railgun girl anime, but some villain has a reality warping power that's based off his perception, and he accidentally gets into essentially a feedback loop where he's so piss scared of a guy refusing to back down despite losing an arm, before he can stop himself he thinks 'this guy is a *monster*'...and his power makes that reality.

"Finding A Balance" is an apt way of putting it. Cyborg is part human, Cyborg is part machine, Cyborg is all _person._ Finding a balance between his two sides to be a person is the journey he goes on and proves his "humanity" in every form.

honestly, the kid showing his prosthetic to cyborg is something that stuck with me ever since I was a kid. Good people don't do good things just for their own gain, they do it to inspire others to be just like them, or to give hope to the hopeless.

Iron Hand: "You will fail. Your sentimentality will be your undoing. The flesh is weak." Salamander: "I have heard you say that phrase on several occasions since our first encounter. I am not sure that you really understand what it means." Iron Hand: "You may have spoken with the Gorgon but do not think to school me in the teachings of my own primarch!" Salamander: "Perhaps I must if the lesson was not learned properly," Ari'i snapped back. "What you say, the flesh is weak, is only part of the saying. In forgetting the end you have lost the meaning. Vulkan said it in praise of Ferrus Manus, after the One Hundred and Eighty-Fourth Expedition when our Legions jointly liberated the ork-dominated worlds of the Shoxua Cluster. The fighting had been fiercer than anything we had expected. Your primarch said in jest that his arm was tired from killing so many orks, and Vulkan retorted with "the flesh is weak, but deeds endure". It was a celebration of what they had achieved, and a remark that even primarchs can die but what they do will last beyond their lifespan. It was a message of humility, not condemnation. Flesh is weak because it knows it must come to an end, and so we must rise above the concerns of flesh and leave a legacy that others will be proud to inherit. Ferrus Manus understood that. He was a harsh master, an unforgiving ally, but he was also a maker of things - a builder, not a destroyer. Whenever I think of Cyborg and Fixit, and Cyborg vs. Atlas, that little exchange between an Iron Hand Astartes (a Space Marine Chapter/group that believes that which makes us human is weak and must be replaced with steel), and a Salamander Astartes (a separate Space Marine Chapter/group that believes humanity must be cherished and protected) plays back in my mind.

Well said mate. Well said. Vulkan would be proud.

My gripe with the first video is him knowing he had like 13 minutes to get home ,chose to walk home instead of having raven teleport him there AND decided to fight a bad guy instead of again going home .the titans could have handled the bad guy while he got charged up. There's also the fact that his onboard CPU most likely let him know when he got up to change his battery,all that he went through could have definitely been avoided.

There is one minor and subtle detail, they shadow but don't ever fully elaborate on, even if the facts are there. The technology that makes him, comprises him of what and how he is, is a self-evolving and improving LIVING machinery. So, it can and does evolve like his organic side.

Maybe this was mention before, if it was I am sorry for being a broken record added to the others; but I think that the next bit that was missed. Cyborg in the Hive Academy was the other extreme. Being very human or rather the things he lost when he went from Victor Stone to Cyborg, from High School Athlete to Superhero. I personally felt that was the pinnacle culmination of Cyborg's growth.

I still can't believe they traded this master piece of a show. For some overly goofy and freakily annoying, down scaled version, they have on TV today... But it "seems" people today, don't want kids learning mature subjects on TV. Instead... They want them to watch mindless drama, that teaches you to run from your problems. Instead of confronting them, like you should. Sorry for the rant... Nice character study video for Cyborg. Well done.

As a long term dialysis patient this really hits home……

There's another moral to the story in the episode with Atlas. Don't disrespect your technician.

Like Superman, I feel like Cyborg is an underrated character. In fact, I think they both struggle with the same topic: what it means to be human. I still think he should be in the Teen Titans instead of the Justice League, though.

yknow it feels odd but nice hearing him called by his actual name instead of just cyborg so many times

Unless you consider 100% to be less, then what you are physically able to do, but then it becomes pretty arbitrary. You do need to push muscles to get stronger, but it needs to be in controlled increments. It is ill advised to push yourself for certain tasks as well, such as arm wrestling. Your ligaments will snap if you put too much strain on them. Humans also have an upper limit that can not be broken. At a certain point, you will see diminishing returns, and pushing any further can only cause harm. Humans can grow, but our potential is limited

only one thing that bothered me as a kid and bothering me now cyborg knows that he needs to change the batteries every couple of years so surely he has some early warning right? "sorry titans i have to change my betteries go on i'll catch up with you" titan alert being a reason he doesn't change his batteries and the rest of the episode playing normally would be ok but he just FORGOT!? and he even has a timer in his hand seems like a mistake on his part to make it beep only when he has seconds left

pain.it means pain.

Barbarians backstory Mom gave me a small trident to fight these things called vegetables and dad said he was called a formal fighting against the veg so they said make sure you eat all your veg on your plates

13:15 what cyborg did here was highly irresponsible and dangerous. It could of been advertised by any adversary, any enemy, anyone and be loaded with malware, or be a energy draining EMP, or destroyed every ounce of ethics he had causing him to lose control of his robotic side via an simple hack when it's put in, it could of ultimately ended up being a plot to destroy him: and he was more than willing to buy the product without doing research, without seeing if this product was "real" in the sense there was multiple copies, he just bought the one and expected the best results...

Cyborg is such an important character

The robot guy in the first episode mentioned is one that strives for perfection in his eyes at the cost of anything else. “Perfect is the enemy of good enough” unlike cyborg who wishes to hold onto his remaining humanity prophet from the crysis games had a goal he needed to achieve and was willing to sacrifice the entirety of the human being he used to be to achieve that goal. In the opening monologue from the 3rd game he talks about replacing his flesh and blood like a spare part to become more of a combat machine to defeat the aliens. He’s one of the last remaining people to wear the nano suit and has been inside it so long, he’s become permanently bonded to it. Cyborg could continue upgrading himself into a stronger fighter but where does it end? How long down the upgrade path before you realize that human element is holding you back? Typically the human elements of half machine half biological beings have benefits but they aren’t as tangible as the mechanical strengths.

The moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me

That brings up a good point, how much of you has to be lost before you're no longer human. If you had all of your parts replaced are you still human, or is it your spirit and Defiance that makes you human?

You know. years into the future this philosophy of human and machine will go very deeply.

Atlas. Ah yes Keith David. 😮

We all have Limits. And NO. Sometimes there are simply things you cant do. No matter how much you want it/how much you try. And thats okay too. It ALSO makes us Human. And just because there is something you cant do, doesnt't mean there is something out there you still could do.

Well well well. What a pleasant find this was.

wouldnt Cyborgs flesh parts of his arms be the bottleneck for how much he could lift?

Cyborgs got some really quality stories surrounding his whole deal he has going on and the nature of being still human while being half super powered robot physically.

Or just Horrified cause he could've end up like them. Alongside the WAY from soma. Would he react to it positively or negatively cause it's a very confused AI who doesn't understand how to ethically keep a human alive.

They don’t consider themselves mortal, which is basically a synonym for regular human in 40k. The tech priests do have a decided lack of emotion and they do tend to replace the vast majority of their biological bodies, but even that difference isn’t the thing that would cause the most issues. It’s that the tech priests wouldn’t even give him the chance to react to them before they either try to retake control over what they see as a rogue combat servitor or they mobilize spicy 40k guns bc his tech will almost certainly be all types of tech heresy
