The only problem is, how the fuck do they summon him? If there's the case where multiple kids are there and he comes to life in front of them, then you'd think they just think of his arms and legs and summon him like Exodia, but then there are other times where he just comes to life if only one kid is there, so then what? Also, there's more bullshit logic. If Barney comes from their imagination, then how does he get the real guests to come in? Fuck, Tomie can't have just left his house and briefly stopped working on books to entertain some children, invited by some guests that he's not sure even exists. Does everything that happens after he's summoned become imaginary? Where is the line between what's real and what's not? Even worse is the video "Come On Over To Barney's House", where kids come visit Barney's house, which of course is imaginary, so what the fuck happened to them in real life? How the hell did he manage to transport the kids to many different places in the videos like outer space as well as the other countries of the world? If that was all imaginary, then what were they doing? Don't you think their parents would be scared that their kids are gone for so long, taken by someone who they can't even associate with? Can't forget the videos which are just mere clip shows were Barney acts independent of the children in the show and appears to be his own separate being. What then? Were the kids who tried to summon them just ignored?
I really don't get this shit at all.
