>Turns out that the good one (Lara) was evil and the evil one (Hibike) was good all alongPlot twist of the year.
>>291269459How can you compare an original anime that got a few episodes with a series that got 3 seasons and 6 movies?
Lara gets a sad end which you hate because you don't actually like yuri, but you don't literally see Kumiko and Shuichi's wedding in the movie so it wins?
>>291269598Is this cope?
>>291269459dropped during ep 1 award
>百合詐欺 (Lily Scam)>Yuri-sagi is a term used for works that claim to be yuri works but are not.>Yuri is used for works that emphasise "relationships between girls", but the following incidents have occurred on rare occasions.>The following incidents have occurred: - A man intervened in a work purporting to be yuri and a threesome ensued.>The heroine of a work purporting to be yuri was in fact a transvestite.>The main character of the work was a man in the first place.This is the Japanese definition of what "yuribait" would be if it wasn't a tool used by trolls and was actually a real term. It's when works are giving off the feeling of yuri, but they actually bait and switch the audience with het in some form. Yuri bait and switch.Also note the yuri definition for future discussions:>Yuri is used for works that emphasise "relationships between girls"It's that simple, not that it matters to trolls of course
>>291269459Hibike redeemed itself and meets the Filipino definition again?
>spammer made another thread with a console war OP as soon as the last thread he made reached 500Wow, it's like every post he makes just confirms that the forced meme about the ending being bad is just one tourist from /v/ spamming

>>291270888I bet it really tickles if you rub her tongue sutures.
>>291271057Mari is so lucky
>>291270925Is that why my friend, an LLfag, turn out like this? Or was it just the result of being a crazy artist?

Here’s your spoonfed explanation for the ending media illiteratefags, you’re welcome:>>291267873>>291267825>>291267846
>>291271844
Please let this be the last Lara thread.
>>291272524I'll make another one just for you
>>291272964Good on ya.
>>291272524The spammer will continue to make them for years to come because as soon as he stops shitposting, the entire fiction about the ending being poorly received disappears forever. That's how you end up with OP's like this that link previously shitposted shows with the newest one being spammed to place them all within a continuous mythology.
>>291271844>have to make up 3 posts of head canon to make the ending make any senselmao kys retard
>>291273122you're legitimately mentally ill
So, we got a sort of nothingburger interpret how you want end? I can't tell if its:>I must leave because the magic has effected me so much/has rules that require me to leave and find a new light, so that I can later return to you, dunno when, I won't tell you directlyOr>I must leave because the magic has effected me so much/has rules that require me to leave and find a new light, we cannot reunite because magic rules, goodbye
>>291273369I like the ending better that she's leaving because Mari is dead and is a ghost.
>>291273369its>I must leave because the light u give me is shit, I need to find a new light (aka getting on the cock carousel)
>>291273386Sadly that's very much on the table with what we got. 'I must leave and try replace you.' Assuming that there's no additional magic fuckery (there must be if she's trying to distance herself).
>>291273453I wonder if with AI we can create a good endinglike >6 months later>we have the scene with the family>they're all talking happily together>but lara is missing>mari comes back from boxing, spent>mother calls her to sit and eat with them>she says no, first she needs to go to her>goes up the stairs, enters the room...>lara's there, she's tending to... a CLOSED CLAM!>mari casually says 'yo'>sits next to lara>starts casual talk>how is the baby faring?>all good! biggest smile ever>lara says something romantic, comparing the past with the present>mari looks a bit pissed, pins her down and says "you need to look only at me now">gives a rapekiss>camera outside>we can see the room shining brightly>ENDthere koide fucking anime this you talentless hack
>>291273453>there must be if she's trying to distance herselfbut we don't know, this can also be interpreted about her wanting some personal growth due to the liberal mindvirus where you just gotta make it to the world on your own and find/develop yourself first to TRULY LIVE, lol
>>291273383That was such a great twitter post! Everyone agrees that the only way this shitty ending makes sense is if that twitter post about Mari being dead is true.

>>291273620schizo
Still malding yurischizo?
>>291273143This gave Lara the ick
>>291269459What an ugly artsyle on the right
Lara owes Mari sex
>>291269459>evil yuribait >good yuribaitWhat.
Lara is fake and smells like fish. Mari, do better.
>>291271844Your entire explanation is horseshit and you've lept from The Little Mermaid's actual point about selflessness being its own reward to "possessiveness" which you've conjured out of thin air.You even stumble through the novel's antithesis to selflessness, which is the Mermaid's utilitarianism. So you should be aware of what the counterpoint is and not this nonsense about possessiveness.
>>291274231Lara already penetrated her
Why did Lara experience a total personality change in the last 4 minutes of the episode? Why does she say almost nothing?
>>291274701she hit herself in the head when she fell.
>>291274701My guess. Lara (fishe) dead. Replaced by new Lara (human). She goes on to Luca because needs a new thing to chase/experience/find light, old toy/desire is sidelined, personality gone. Is there magic forbidding her talking? Maybe. Dunno. Keklol. Maybe she's just a cunt now. I really can't explain it.
Daily Lara tweets end on wednesday so probably last nothingburger winter season special will be tomorrow.
It's really a shameful amount of samefagging to keep this up
>>291274701Uuuuuh Sayonara, Lara™!
>>291274701because the director had the ending in mind from the start and was too arrogant to adapt it to the new story that was unfoled due to multiple staff's input, its really best to just ignore it once you know that.also as someone else commented, the director says its about Lara becoming free and yet he forced the ending on her (and Mari) so he's the biggest hypocrite. Japan is too full of yes-men to have challeneged his wonderful ending. its just as bad as the Mass Effect ending due to the writer not allowing any other input and thinking they know best, both are narcissists and its easy to see.
Would you like Koide to direct adaptation of your favourite manga?
>>291275147>as someone else commentedIt's just you out here samefagging to talk to yourself and spin this narrative. It's even obvious you're the same tourist from /v/ since you bring up a random video game. Plus you're the only one spamming about Koide
>>291275223do you work for lara's publisher?
>>291269459They remind me of this film
>>291275239He's dedicated. Was he around 3 weeks ago when leaks landed?
>>291275563He only appeared after the ending. There was a ton of shitposting all throughout the show's run but nobody this bot-like.
>>291275570>>291275563>>291275239Samefagging to create a new narrative for shitposterThis is the spammer who brought the leaks here from twitter to shitpost about nonstop until the finale aired already saying the ending would be bad. Every stage of his narrative building is launched with twitter screencaps and/or links.
do you think lara will go for a new girl or boy after she moves?
>>291275649Lara has never considered girls possible romantic partners.
>>291275655but her vagina SPLASHED during that scene in... ep4?
I have to go now. My planet needs me.
>>291275670Lara died on the way back to Denmark.
>>291271844And what is the answer to the question the anime brings about concerning what is “true love?”True love knows no gender, race, creed, or expectations. It is completely selfless in nature and expects nothing from the other person, only wanting the very best for them and deriving satisfaction from their presence alone. It also cannot be forced or coerced, true love simply exists as is and is the one emotion that makes life truly worth living.This is the entire thesis statement for SayoLara, and as soon as you understand this and the original Little Mermaid fairytale the better you’ll be able to understand the ending and its meaning. I refuse to believe such a well-crafted and meticulously written show just decided to completely drop the ball in the last 5 minutes, that’s just not possible. Usually signs of an anime going to shit is telegraphed much earlier, which means the ending was in fact deliberately directed that way to make us think and directly engage with both SayoLara and the OG Little Mermaid’s theme. Koide wants us to look deeper, to really sit with the uncomfortable and discerning feelings the ending made us feel and see beyond it’s surface to the true message of the work.
>>291275717There is no message. Lara is uncharacteristically selfish at the end.
base koide, i kneel.
>>291275733>Lara is uncharacteristically selfish at the end.She is actually trying to be selfless and is struggling hard to hold her resolve and leave Mari for her own good, hence why her legs start stumbling as soon as she leaves Mari and why she appears so cold to her, she’s trying to steel her resolve.
>>291275767Who is she trying to be selfless for? Mari doesn't want her to leave.
>>291275490
>>291275738>up for intepretationI didn't know this douchebag worked for Bamco
>>291275903you just dont understand, mari actually wants to suffer alone after finding her love... because she's a masochist!!!
>>291275738Unironically based as fuck
>>291276149>>291275738Calm down faggot
What's going on here?
>>291275738Director Koide won
>>291271069
Kek pathetic
You're not wrong. That idol schizo is pathetic
Pretty rare that the final few seconds does a series in.Oddly, I was fine with TTGLs, Nia isn't human, she should have been deleted weeks prior. Maybe that shows people need time to stew or something. There's a logic here I'm just missing, or maybe it's just too fucking alien.
>>291276471Mari should have done that at the ending kek, smack some sense into that whore
>>291274232The babblings of a crazy artist.
>>291276477He might have been happier to hear he was getting a seventh daughter than a human man who would pollute their genes
>>291276485Thanks
10 years to 11. 11 to 12.12 to 20.
That fucking idolfag is so obsessed, he's mistaking ANYONE as his ex-boyfriend
>>291275738I want to shove a cactus up his pretentious ass
>>291276221Another Stage.
I think you should try get a hobby, my friend. There's more to this world than being crazy over anonymous people.
>>291276576Looks better than the stuff JH draws.
>>291275680In a poop cruise hantavirus outbreak
>>291269692>The heroine of a work purporting to be yuri was in fact a transvestite.Bit of friendly fire there, no?
>>291276576Looks better than the stuff Failed King AIshits
>>291276603We should replace shitty artists with AI tho, especially the fat ones.
>>291269692>The following incidents have occurred: - A man intervened in a work purporting to be yuri and a threesome ensued.>The heroine of a work purporting to be yuri was in fact a transvestite.>The main character of the work was a man in the first place.Name 10 anime.Literally never happened.
>>291276601TS shit has never been yuri no matter how much westerners will try to convince you otherwise
>>291275717>True love knows no gender, race, creed, or expectations.Except you villify the dying family who had two royals die to humans and seen endless horrors in ocean by them as conservative bigots and portray becoming a- human as the pinnacle of races
so when will Lara settle?
>>291275738>write the ending first>create the actual story that no longer aligns with the ending you started with>change nothing about the ending so the entire story crashes and burns>DID U RIKE IT?what a hack
>>291276612If only some of you people followed that logic a bit further
I saw that the idol schizo is having a melty over Toy Story. I know nothing about it but he posted some fat dude who's probably the main character. Maybe he's "angy" over him for being fat? I am going to dig into this series and why he's so mad about it
>>291276641What are you even implying?
>>291276685Denials do not work when the Research Club knows so much.
>>291269633as much as /a/ loves tsunderes and childhood friends I'm not sure how they missed Kumiko being tsundere with her childhood friend
>>291276724You wasted 10+ years of your life just to research on people all because they pissed on your cereal?
>>291276743The history of 4chan would have been so much different if someone here had realised that earlier. That Kumiko was inevitably gonna stick to the canon route of dating her childhood friend.
>>291272524Shitposter will keep spamming it until manga has a yuri end destroying all his spamming. And then he will pretend he never cared.
Message in blu ray>In order to make it a compelling work, it was necessary to build a world view that is unique to this anime. As a result, it has become an episode into which we have poured in every expressive technique, such as the way time is compressed, the direction, the animation, and the music. Looking back at it again, I feel that it is a work that naturally draws you in when you watch it. I think that is also a manifestation of the pride that was put into this first episode. This work begins with Luna's line, "Did we really come from a place like this?" This line is also a declaration of resolve that was put into the work. "Where are mermaids (us) born, and where are we going?" We wanted to make a work that confronts that question head-on and answers it. That is the feeling that was put into this line. Director, Storyboard Artist, and Director: Takashi Koide
The mere fact that faggot brags about his decade-long shitposting war with anon users that he actually tries to stalk is a dead giveaway that he's a mentally ill fuck. He must be still in his 20s and doesn't give a shit about his own well being
>>291276792Wow what an amazing twitter post this just confirms what everyone has said about the ending
>>291274701Manga will explain it.

Wait so you're telling me that one of the girls from the "This is a confession of love, after all" actually gets married to a guy? Lmao
The anime, did it boost foot traffic to Lake Biwa?

Guys, I think "Proxy Number"-kun is seething
>>291277058How so?
>>291276876I hope so.
>>291276951Because she is destined for granny
>>291276951>Normal dork X ice queen "villainess"Not enough time, but it'd be great. It's one of those show-stealing dynamics where a few scenes of her getting flustered because her haughtiness rolls right over him (like it does with Mari) and then wrapping him in her arms with all the frilly stuff from her witch form around them would suddenly have their side character popularity eclipse the leads.
