Counter: I remember what I did last week. BOOM! Lawyered!
a new consciousness is created that maintains the same memories and experiences as the old one. I guess its a similar argument to that of ''Is the clone really identical to the original''
What scares me is going to sleep to wake up and going thru something similar to what Sakuta experienced with Mai and Kaede (more with Kaede, since I have 2 little sisters).
Waking up forgetting the entire existence of somebody or waking up with a loved one of me completely changed.
I had trouble taking that creepypasta seriously but seeing "I HAVE SEEN THINGS THAT CANNOT BE UNSEEN" in an attempt to establish horror killed it for me.
I'd like it better if the people just died of a heart attack once they were sedated, rather than the super-human strength stuff.
