I can’t believe all of those people in that camp are ok with eating other humans.
^^^ they did have quite a few. Could it really be that tasty?!
We don’t know for sure that they are or aren’t cannibals. They might just have them locked up to make sure they’re not a threat.

well there was the really creepy sacrifice chamber looking stuff, and the cage with rib cages and other carcass remains that were definitely not from “walkers” lol…
Even then we can’t really say for sure if they are or not, but seems pretty damn likely, I agree with another poster if they really are canabals I can’t believe so many are cool with it… Maybe the writing on the wall has something to do with it too. Where it says trust no one, us first, always. Or something along those lines.
Also, do you think they are cannibals because they can’t hunt and scavenge like all the other survivors? It’s just easier for them to lure people into their camp and then trap or drug them maybe.
Also, how come Rick at least took a somewhat smart approach to terminus by getting off the main tracks and going the back way through the woods to check them out first and hid some guns just in case? Then Abraham, who apparently was in the military walks right in without checking them out first with the guy who he is suppose to protect and take to D.C.

I think it had more to do with experience in the post humane world, Rick’s group is very guarded against things that seem too good to be true because of event’s like Woodbury. I think they also mentioned this in the episode. Discussing potential options and if Terminus could be a potential risk.

I need to re-watch the last minute or two again, because if Abraham wasn’t pretty banged up from a struggle with the termites prior to getting locked in the rail car, I’m not so confident in his abilities as a soldier/warrior. Unless of course they grabbed Mr. Mullet Eugene to force him in, I guess.

He might have just realized that fighting was useless in a situation like that. Or it could be he’s like Darryl and can get his ass kicked and look completely fine.

I imagine everyone there is a cannibal. Food sources are limited so a food source that comes to you is ideal. I’m sure there may be 1 or 2 that only eat whats grown in the gardens but I can’t imagine that anyone that is “ok” with others eating another human wouldn’t be doing it themselves…

Plus the people yelling for help inside even more storage containers when the group was being chased/herded into their own container. Cannibals or not, the Terminus group is pretty much definitely bad guys. But yeah, it does seem odd that a group of 15 or more strangers (ballparking it based on the communications room, courtyard, and outer perimeter) would be fine turning to cannibalism, even in a post-apocalytic setting.
I read that Tara, Rosita, and Gareth (the Terminus leader guy) have been signed on as “series regulars” for next season. So odds are, whatever happens, we won’t be leaving Terminus in a quick one or two episodes.

It does seem like a pretty big stretch for them to rely on eating people, especially with such a big group of their own.
That means that they’re counting on:
A) Plenty of survivors still wandering in the outside world.
B) Enough survivors hearing their radio broadcasts and/or seeing the signs for Terminus.
C) Enough of those survivors deciding to make the trip.
D) Enough of those survivors actually surviving the trip.
E) The survivors that do arrive not being strong enough to fight back and/or take out a large number of Terminions (Termites, Terminusians) in the struggle. Imagine if Joe’s group got to Terminus first or someone well-armed like the Governor rolling up with full military trucks, let alone the tank.
Seems like a huge gamble in general. I read somewhere, I think it was an interview with Kirkman, wondering if TV viewers would still be expecting cannibals if we knew nothing about the comic books. Sure, a lot of signs definitely imply it but, taking cannibals off the table, is there any other explanation for their behavior? (Probably not. Just putting it out there.)
I bought like The Walking Dead from Telltale…
And then I bought the 400 days ad-on…
And the second season…
Totally primitive when it comes to gameplay, but the storytelling!!!
O_O!!!
The guys who wrote this should write the show…

I played the demo but never did anything more. I’ve only heard great things about it though. Perhaps I should look into procuring myself the game.

Oh I loved the first season of the Telltale game. The controls are a little funky at times, but like you said, the storytelling is top notch. It’s very brutal and I like it. Did you cut off his arm when he got bit?

Well they do have the vegetable patches. Maybe they’re “mostly vegan” cannibals.
I probably wouldn’t have suspected cannibalism if I hadn’t read about it here, but those piles of butchered remains definitely caught my eye.
Well either way the Terminus people messed with the wrong* sheriff.
