Welcome to my 2am lobotomy-research spiral and how I will relate it to my favorite Lobotomy Boy
For one, anesthetics were usually not used during lobotomies, and instead, an intense electric shock would be used to knock them out for the initial drilling and picking. Many patients would wake up in the middle of it and they wouldn’t put them back to sleep; they’d just be awake in the middle of getting their brain literally swirled.
Patients were either left dead, in a vegetative state, unable to do the most basic things, without morals, completely apathetic and/or willing to do anything someone instructed them to do. So everything with Izuru makes a lot more sense. The nerve connections were broken and so was the ability to feel strong emotions. Izuru went along with whatever anyone said, and I feel like that part of the show is greatly ignored. He never had any malicious intent, he was just doing what was asked of him. Whether that be the scientists when he was supposed to be a super weapon, Junko while she was destroying the world, and even Makoto when he asked if Izuru would like to take part in the Neo World Program. Because let’s be honest, if Izuru didn’t want to do it, they wouldn’t have been able to make him. But of course the point is that he can’t really want anything anymore. That was destroyed with a lot of his brain
The fact that lobotomies, when they were made popular, were preformed in front on an audience, which immediately connected in my brain to the fact that the scientists were all standing around and applauding. And I know that it was an incredible success, so it makes sense for them to do that, but people originally did it purely for entertainment.
And they even took crowd volunteers, so that connects to Hajime volunteering for the project itself with no repercussions.
So yeah, some of this is stating facts that lead to my headcanon that Hajime/Izuru have a crippling fear of electricity and things being close to their eyes. And a lot of it is connecting the procedure and aftermath to actual lobotomy history
Chara, playing a game with Frisk: Ugh, this is taking… one million percent of my concentration right now.
Kris, who hasn’t slept in their own bed for three nights: Alright, for me though, I could fucking tell my life story, here we go.
Frisk: Really?
Kris, with a thousand-yard stare: At age six, I was born without a face.
Chara: [cracks up laughing]
Frisk: There’s like… twenty absurdities in that sentence!
i think i got them right? discuss,
