Does she count as an antagonist? I still don't know what the fuck her problem is. All I get from her is an uncomfortable feeling of malice that feels particularly disturbing coming from a series like this.
https://strawpoll.com/05Zdz134Nn6again, based purely on the way it sounded to you, who was better?
Boring anime
>>268221812She doesn't even feel like a character, Mayu behaved like a walking plot device during the entire season. No personality, no struggles, no goals. Literally made for fap material because of her massive tits
>>268221852Thus the feeling of malice. It's like she only wants to do harm.
>>268221812>antagonist>interrupts your solo practice everydayno shit
>>268221852>Mayu behaved like a walking plot device during the entire season. No personality, no struggles, no goals.Don't forget we mostly see everything from Kumiko's POV, we saw atleast 3 chances where both of them could have become more friendly to each other but Kumiko excused herself or outright refused her while Mayu didn't push it any further.
>>268221994from my point of view Kumiko is evil
>>268221812>Does she count as an antagonist?Yes, Kanade was right.
>>268221388Mirin' those Reina tits
>>268221388MIDORI'S ASS

>>268221388Will the graduates kiss?
I want to sniff Kumiko's crotch so bad
>>268221812She deserves to be raped.
>>268221388Someone in Japan, specifically in Kyoto region, is hoarding a truck load of diesel right now as we posting.

>>268221498Even if that's the case it still happened offscreen.
7 MINUTES
>>268222026Finally somebody gets me !!!1
>>268221812Kill Mayu. Death to Mayu. Total Mayu death.
>>268222026why?
>>268221812She's definitely on the spectrum.
>>268221812Mayu is Dark Kumiko
Hot take: Mayu is nowhere near as bad as Reina has been this season.
lets talk about a real musician>competes in a real section (11 rivals, mogs them all)>undisputed soloist, its not even close ever>hasn't even seen the sheet music once, memorized and played by ear>destroyed main characters in EnCon, Revolucionario is highly technical>is she gay, is she straight? nope she's just a better musicianif this anime wasn't propaganda to fill out the low bass section of school concert bands it would be about her
>>268221812I love mayu. Kumiko was so mean to her.
>It's Mayu's fault that Reina is a traitor bitchdo people really

>>268222527her middle school Reina lite friend betrayed her and chose cocks over her I bet. Kumiko and Mayu need more similarities

>>268222751>>268222838Doesn't really matter, best episode this season only had 1 AD
>>268222425Kumiko beats up Mayu and steals her euphonium
>>268221800because Mugi ate Mio's strawberry
>>268222425maybe Asuka gave Kumiko her ufo
>>268223100it's probably just the silver eupho Kumiko borrowed when she played at Reina's house
>>268221498>doesn't appear in the preview>Motomu gets more action than Shoe in the previewHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>268222583Sapphire
>>268223158toying with yurifags
>>268221493Kumiko What A Buchou
>>268222425this episode is going to be a total mess. training camp, reina and kumiko playing together, performance with award ceremony, graduation and time skip epilogue all in one episode is a recipe for disaster
maybe it's an hour episode like season 2's first episode
I need Mayu milkers.
>>268223444god I hope so.
>>268223445I need Mayu smiles
I have no idea what the fuck kwab means
I'm ready for this
>>268221812The way I see it, she genuinely wanted to play the part because she wants to be recognized for her skill, but ALSO wanted to not play it if it was going to cause trouble. She's not a bad guy, she just has two conflicting desires. He wants are complex and they mirror Kumi and Reina. Kumiko also has two(or three) conflicting wants>for the school to be an absolute meritocracy>to play the soli with her best friendThese are not directly at at odds with eachother, but the meritocracy part will make the other impossible IF she's not better than mayu. The third one is>to be a good presidentWhich gets in her way of the second one since it prevents her from practicingReina has 3 desires also, but the two that conflict the most are>earn gold at nationals>play the soli with her best friendIn her mind, she thinks she cant earn gold without mayu because mayu is SLIGHTLY better than Kumiko. There is too much to get into about why this is just kinda silly, but it is what it is.My point is that all of their wants are complicated, so it's not easy to say "oh she's the antagonist" because she genuinely isn't. If you really want to closely examine it, the antagonist of this season is kinda Kumiko herself. She is the one piling on so much work on herself that she cant breathe and achieve some of her goals. It's a game of concessions and compromises. She chose to be the best president she could be in order to win gold, sacrificing her personal desire to play with Reina. These were all her choices.The reality is that none of these girls really did anything "wrong" because wrong isn't the right word for it. The closest you can get to wrong is Reina being ultraautismo about that extra 1% chance (and it can be argued that the benefit to morale of kumiko playing the soli outweighs the benefit of having a better player for the part, but that's a separate topic)Oh yeah, and Reina's third desire is to be the meat in a Taki X Kumiko sandwich
>>268223478please just an hour of this, kyoani, I can die peacefully
>>268223445not allowed>>268223478allowed
>>268223444Nope time slot is listed for the usual duration
>>268223489kek what a bitch
I don't respect anyone who thinks Reina made the right choice in the latest episode. I feel as though anyone who thinks that is a coldhearted person. Am I going too far?
>>268223624Yeah, basically Reina thought that Mayu's sound was better for the competition. She didn't lie when she said she loves Kumiko's sound. Reina didn't want to lie, she loves her friend, but she still chose the right option. That's what makes Reina special.
KumikoWorstAhoBuchyou
>>268222425KEK they are having their own private soli anyway
>>268223624Nope, only retards like reina after all the shit she did in s3
The better reina
>>268221498>doesnt appear in the the preview>”kumirei skinship”>hairpin forgottenShoebros… how do we cope?
Reina is a brat that needs a certain type of correction that I can't quite put my finger on at the moment
>>268222425>copeout soli after the competition poor animators, crunching hard after the failure of ep12
What did Mizore mean by this, bros?
>>268223988She means she can't picture you in the same elite school as hers
>>268223905Sunday 5:12pm and 5:19pm he will win
>>268223889Special-free Reina
>>268223690Reina also said Kumiko plays better, and not just "I like your play" and also "I already decided to play with you", so yeah, fuck her.
>>268223510That percussionist girl is looking at Mayu intently
>>268223981It really was super divisive wasn't it?I dont usually watch anime live. Even this, I binged it starting last week and have only been in these threads for a couple days since I've caught up but I've seen tons of discussion and argument from both sides of the topic. I'm kinda on the fence about it myself, but I lean towards the "Kumi should've won" camp. I guess the last ep will determin if this le original le anime le ending was the right callI'm not going to use the source material as an argument cause I think adaptions should be able to stand on their own
I want a KumiMayu ending far more than I want a KumiReina or KumiShoe one.
So why is the show pretending that a conservatorium is only for savant autists like Mizore and Reina? Every Tom Dick and Harry music teacher in the world has a music degree, Kumiko would've been fine.
>>268224049ESL
>>268224009She's gonna picture me inside of her sexually and passionately(I MEAN MY PENIS INSIDE OF HER VAGINA AND MY TONGUE IN HER MOUTH BY THE WAY, INCASE THAT WASN'T CLEAR)
>>268224086So?
>>268224084And there's just as many who can't do anything with a music degree.
>>268224081same but Kuminade
>>268224084Because the show wants to have its cake and eat it tooLiterally nothing was stopping Reina, taki, the other woman that was helping them, the other teacher, etc. from saying>you know you can go to music school and use that degree to become a teacher, right? You don't have to go pro
>>268222602This. Reina is going to gift it to Kumi and make her promise to never stop playing for fun and to think of her [pussy] every time she tonguepunches and slobbers all over that mouthpiece
>>268222372>undisputed soloist, its not even close everMayu obviously only won by a hairline tied break through an autist, while Taki didn't believe the soli will make a winning difference for nationals. Otherwise the democratic principle would be absurd.
>>268224220If taki didn't believed it mattered who played the soli with Reina, then he should've just not been a fucking retard and picked Kumiko as it would have been better for the morale of the entire band
HelloI love MizoreThat is all
>meritocracy>uh kumiko should have won because people like her more
>>268224290>it would have been better for the morale of the entire bandBands seemed to be doing fine after kumiko speech which was before this audition thing anyway
>>268224320she is so weird
>>268224331Yes. If they're objectively at the same level (as proven by a 50/50 vote (ridiculously convinient btw) then the objecive right choice is to pick the beloved president who everyone looks up to>>268224333Doesn't matter if they were doing fine. They would be doing better if they saw Kumi get the part. They idolized her. They simultaneously believed that the meritocracy was true (it was and would have been even if Kumi had been chosen without a second audition (it came down to subjective preference and taki didn't want to make that call)) AND that their leader is a goddess who can do anythingKumi is the objecive right callThe best thing would have been for taki to have chosen her after the audition and never elaborate
>>268224415> objectively at the same level (as proven by a 50/50 vote It's like you don't even pay attention to the episode, did you miss all the close up shots of her friends voting for her? They can obviously tell, there's quite an audible difference between the two.
>>268224084Kumicone
>>268224415>They would be doing better if they saw Kumi get the part. Did members mention they will only play their 100% if kumiko gets the soli? Way to sell short the impact kumiko's speech had on them in episode 10.
>>268224479Did you even fucking listen to the episode?Kumiko stumbled a bit in the middle but played with more emotion and matched reina betterAlso I'm going to go ahead and call you retarded because not even the professional music teacher was willing to say one or the other is better yet you assume the students have a bias because they could tell who was playing. Out of all of them, the only ones that would really be able to tell would be those in the bass sectionYou're deluding yourself into thinking theyre not on equal grounds
>>268224049I think 'plays better' here doesn't mean better in competition or general judgment of music. Reina means it more personally
>>268224954>Did you even fucking listen to the episode?Did you even watch the episode?Your original argument is it's objective from the 50/50 vote, do you think they have zoom ins for her friends voting for no reason? Even a child can understand the implication, yet you somehow cannot. Keep sperging out like an aggressive retard though, makes you look very smart.
>>268224015Holy cope.
>>268223905Most of the important scenes rarely get included in the PVs anyway
Kanade needs to grab Motomu and kiss him on the lips
>>268225012>Reina means it more personallyHow convenient. When she votes it's objective, because she is le genius and can better judge than Taki, when she says that Kumiko is better, it's subjective.
>>268217034KEK literal japanese ack. Autism is a powerful weapon.
>>268222372literally has a boyfriend
>>268222425>playing the soli for shame damn this is borderline mental abuse
>>268225039Half her freinds voted against her,Dipshit
>>268225699no way, leaks said no original senpais would appear I AM STILL HOPING TO SEE THEM ONE LAST TIMESTILL BEST GIRLS
Guys turn back the clockTake me back to 2015It's ending, I don't want that to happenI don't want it please PLEASE STOP IT
>>268225095>>268225699Not coping, it will happen during this scene.
>performance skippedIt's over, that 5th episode of second season is still the peak
>>268225699The fuck is this?
>>268226048Reina trying to give her hankie to emotional taki sensei
>>268226082Is this a leak or from the 2nd year movie.
>actual leaksOkay Im out. See you on sunday, /a/.
>>268225699Since when was Yuuko a Reina x Taki shipper?
>>268225699>>268226082OH NO NO NO NO, yuribros… This cant be happening….
>>268225812So Shuichi’s scene is just a pathetic ending credits slideshow. Hilarious
>>268224084Hanada wants to push the Liz analogy forgetting that Kumiko can open windows
>>268224084Going to music school would mean even more heart-wrenching drama, with even higher stakes. Kumiko can't take it.
>>268226155Since Reina dropped her spaghetti all over the place in front of her.
Why didn't Reina give her ufo to Kumiko for practice? Stupid bitch
>>268222494THey're gonna speedrun a summer camp weekend so they can all bathe together with bubbles and giggles.
>>268226952Kumiko was too busy whining to her cactus to practice
>>268217034>asuna haterHOLY BASED
>>268224084Because Kumiko isn't THAT passionate about music at the end of the day.
>>268226105Leak
>>268225699Post more.
>>268228016So what is she passionate about? Unless she's going to teach elementary school she needs a subject. Is Kumiko going to teach biology?
>>268222425I can't believe Kumiko killed Mayu and stole her silver eupho
>>268228786thats the problem. its not music. we've had a few run-ins with the teachers. she probably just wants to be an adult that kids look up to, just like she looks up to the adults, which are, well the teachers.
>>268226228when was it not pathetic, but it still exists and implied in the final episode even though he might have gotten same amount of screentime as motomu throughout this season
>>268229129what was the point of that scene with the azusa(rikka girl) then, saying she can't imagine kumiko not having anything to do with music
>>268229554i would think they were close back then. she doesnt know Kumiko now
>>268229635But she knew Kumiko pre-Reina when she didn't really give a shit.
>>268222425>private gay mountain soliAs predicted.
>>268224084You don't need to go to a conservatory to get a music degree. There's no real reason to do that and surround yourself with performance autists if she just wants to become a teacher.
>>268229764i dont know, Kumiko has been shown to just flat out not know what she wants to do several times until she did
>>268228786The novel implied she is going to teach social science.
>>268222425Seriously, why is she playing Mayu's eupho? Any ideas?
>>268230183That's Reina's eupho, you fucking retard.
>>268230325>Indirect kissMajimaschizos told me this counts therefore Yuri won
Shuuichi won
>tfw we could have webmrel but with KumiRei but were robbedyou rike?
I’ll cry
Kumiko had a "breaking bad" phase at college after all the stress in her last JK year. Parties, alcohol and bareback casual sex
shuichi in shambles
>has more screentime than ShoeKNEEL.
>>268232666Yuribros... not like this...
>>268232666>1st answer>yurifags its over>2nd answer>yurifags won>3rd answer>yurifags its really over>4th question and answer >incomprehensible
>>268233464
>>268224081Can Mayu blow a dick as good as she blows her eupho?
>>268233562I have to imagine the skills are connected.
>>268233464Does Yamaha really think dozens of people will buy their ridiculously priced instruments because of a 2D girl
>>268231171Kumiko is a responsible girl. She would never go without protection!
its over
>*teleports towards you*
>>268232666She's just a seiyu, what does she know? I've spent 9 years masturbating to KumiRei and therefore have a superior understanding of their relationship.
>GBCfags doubted the leaker and got btfoYou are next.
>>268232666Never expected anything from this show but bait, but I don't think this read on the character is quite right.
>>268225699How awkward it would be if your students suddenly started pairing you with the cute JK drum major.
>>268235867It's honestly really fucking weird that the show never has Reina get over this. Like, what is the message here supposed to be?
>>268235897That it's normal for 18 year old women to like 30 year old men
>>268235897Be true to yourself and try to get into the pants of the hot widower teacher.
>>268235897The message is that you can't fix daddy issues so you better take advantage.
>>268235995>>268236087I'm not even talking about the age gap, though that alone is pretty bad, but just like a relationship there in general. Even if you put the age issues aside, Reina and he would never work. She doesn't at all seem to be what he's looking for in a partner. I understand that she can never swerve from her obsessive focus on music, but it's really weird to have 3 seasons of the character with her having this massive delusional crush and she never grows or changes at all.
>>268234181Worked with K-On. Worked with Bocchi. Will work with UFO.
>live in the same building>barely interactsYear 2 novel even shows that Shoe regularly eats at Kumiko's place and is chummy with KumiMom.
>>268234181they didn't expect she will become a loser thowho wants to buy an instrument advertised by a loser?
>>268235897Reina barely got any growth over all 3 years, it's par for the course
>>268236439Kumi won btw
>>268236481Yeah, that's the issue. Moving on from the Taki thing would have been an obvious opportunity to grow her character without compromising on her core, but they just didn't do that.
>>268236517She'll move on once she meets ME
>>268236439>who wants to buy an instrument advertised by a loser?Bocchi fans
>>268236172Cute.
Pov: your Reina and you've finally cornered Kumi in her room and are about to teach her some new tonguing techniques
>>268221812more like a plot device for kumiko to try (and fail) to overcome
>>268235628>"""leaker""": the ending of this novel adaptation will be the same as the novels>"people": he is a leaker!!11!1!1!this is so fucking retarded, believing random people on twitter will always be retarded
>>268222425no shuu in sight
How come we never see parents watch their children perform in the concert competition?
>>268236826They play the same damn song for a year straight you've heard one you've heard them all.
>>268235628Leak mentioned about Yuuko-Natsuki confession which made people doubt it.
>>268236826Time constraints and because we are on Kumiko's shoes, she places more importance on her friends which translates to more screentime.
>>268236801My favorite is always>"""Leaker""": obvious prediction which anyone with a few brain cells could infer based on openly available knowledge>prediction comes true because of course it does>morons rush to worship them as an insider
If Kumiko was my girlfriend, I would constantly jumpscare her.
>>268236966I bet she makes the cutest noises when scared.
>>268237023>betShe literally does in the showIt's canon
>>268236966that's not very nice
>>268229129Michie sensei is aways a judge during auditions but we never see her play any instrument
>>268237255she blows me every monday
Did Shoe waste away his high school romantic life by not getting over his oneitis?
Goku would fucking DEMOLISH KumiShe doesn't even stand a chance
>>268237319no, Shoe wouldn't be able to get girls anyway
>>268237319Better odds of finding a fully compatible long-term gf in college anyways.
>>268237319I bet he masturbated to Kumiko every evening. and morning.and lunch break.
>>268237319Yes.Kumiko will always be thinking about Reina first but he would never be able to have a threesome with them because they would just kick him out of bed anyways and go at eachother like wild animals
>>268237422He was literally confessed to. He could've had anyone and he chose the girl who spent her high school career chasing raven-haired menhera girls around like a moth to a flame.
no joke, shoe is a good boyfriend
>>268237948He's better than Kumiko deserves, just like Kumiko is better than Reina deserves.
>>268237319>tall>club vp100%
>>268238049Kumiko deserves the best you fucking jackass
>>268238049So kumiko and reina are made for each other
>>268238137Thats the face of a future prime minister of japan
I'm not ready to say goodbye
>>268238739Then don't! Rewatch it anon!! You can watch shows as many times as you want!!!
>>268238768nta, but nothing beats the first time.when you watch the last episode - it's over
>>268238768This. I have rewatched the show maybe 20-50 times over the almost decade and I'm doing fine.Rewatching the show you know you like instead of new ones is a sound strategy.(Send help)
>>268236193>though that is pretty badNo it isn't. It's fine for kids to like adults, it's just not okay for adults to like kids. I wanted to fuck my 3rd grade teacher, but there was no problem because she didn't want to fuck me.
>>268239078>she didn't want to fuck meAre you sure about that???
This got me in the feels. Felt like a parent
>>268239819It all comes tumbling down tumbling down tumbling down...
>>268239872YAMEROOO
>>268239078Most kids who want to fuck their hot teacher don't actually have delusions about having a relationship with them. Reina is like actually delusional levels of obsessed with Taki, it's not just the usual teenage horniness. That's why it would have been good for her to grow and recognize it for the immature, impossible fantasy that it is.
>>268239872I managed to drop out of uni, spend a year in the army and change two jobs during the show's run. Seeing it end is all kinds of nostalgic.
>>268234561Seethemiko will do stuff so hardcore her family would disavow her if they knew. She never grew up from her Kitauji experiences and her college life will be a mess
>>268231171Not sure how accurate that would be but I can totally see her regretting getting stuck on doing so much hard work and it not really paying off, and choosing to spend more time doing things that are pleasant and that she actually wants.Not sure how much girls regret not having high school sex compared to boys, but I can see her wishing she got to take some Shoe dick after practice.
>>268240354>and it not really paying offIt will pay off though. People seem to have gotten distracted by the shiny new plot line this season and forgotten what the main goal has been all along.
>>268224084>>268229957IDK about japan, but in the US there's not really a difference between conservatories and music departments that are part of regular universities. The conservatories tend to be 'fancier' but there are also universities that have equivalently fancy music depts.
>>268239872Delete this or I'll delete you
>I can’t handle a relationship right now, just wait a year>no sex, no kissing, ill deny our relationship in public >anyway time for me to go hang out on a mountain alone at night with my very special friend, cya ;)Shuichi is a saint
>>268236087>>268236193>>268235897She wants what she wants. Maybe she wouldn't be what he wanted or it wouldn't work out, but her feelings are real and they're not going away any time soon.It would be pretty ballsy if we actually get the Reina Taki ending. Note that once Reina graduates she won't be underage and he won't be her teacher anymore.

>>268240487>but her feelings are real and they're not going away any time soon.Yes, that's the problem. And it wouldn't be ballsy, it would just be stupid. Just because he's legally able to fuck her doesn't mean that the relationship would make any sense.
I wish I had a band to motivate me to practice

>>268224081KumiBrat
>>268240626I have less hair than 9 years ago but I'm the same age as you and okay otherwise. Literally at the gym as I type this.
>>268236193> She doesn't at all seem to be what he's looking for in a partner.Pretty sure what he’s looking for is his dead wife lol. But yeah I guess Takeda just didn’t care enough and was fine with Reina being a static character. Really the only character who experiences much growth is Kumiko
>>268240959We're all gonna make it
>>268241027It's kind of nuts that Reina is basically a completely static character considering how important she is.
>>268237319>Could have had Hazuki>Could have had Michiru>Could have had any of the Trombone qties in his section
>50% Tomoyo Kurosawa’s voice acting >25% KyoAni kino>25% Takeda/KyoAnus writing I think this is the breakdown for why the series is good
Just now finally watched Ep 11 after having to study and shit.Why is this season so overly overdramatic? Why is Reina such a dimwit? Why do they never elaborate on the many side stories they introduce each episode (thinking of the faggot player's answer, among many other things)?And most importantly, why is Mamiko so relatable, wise and sexworthy?Are we still mad at Kosaka?
>>268241571Kurosawa truly is incredible.
>>268240454Cuckold. The word you're looking for is cuckold.
She will be missed.
>>268241882sex fiend
>>268241735>Why is this season so overly overdramatic?It's your average coming of age anime, Kumiko is about to graduate and you can see how most 3rd years have begun thinking about their own futures, first signals of maturity.>Why is Reina such a dimwit?Music autism courtesy of her dad>Why do they never elaborate on the many side stories they introduce each episode (thinking of the faggot player's answer, among many other things)?Every character is going through teenager shit, you barely see it because we only focus on Kumiko's struggles.>Are we still mad at Kosaka?Jason from UC Davis will fix her with the D.
Is Hazuki actually stupid? Going to community college doesn’t really speak well of her intellectual abilities
>>268242235she's wanting to be a kindergarten teacher.She doesn't need to go to Tokyo U
>>268242235Don't need no diploma for music boi. There's soundcloud.
>>268242235Japan's education system is heavily influenced by the US. Every certified apprenticeship in the EU is more involved. At the same time, I don't think that makes her stupid. Truth be told, she might have more foresight than a lot of uni/college droids. Moreover, there's a selection bias in manga/anime. Your average college joe just isn't as interesting - heck, college in itself is largely ignored after the "final struggle to get into dream school"-arc.
>>268241074She only exists for kumikos growth
Wow this new leak is crazy
>>268241179>could have even had Reina maybe if he played his cards right.
time skip shoeitchy and reina in c part, reina looks downgraded and shoeitchy looks like your average nipponse wage slave with short hair
Mayu won two (2) auditions. Sure, she can toot her fucking horn. Get her stupid shitty muted backing solo in because her timing is more precise. Who, I wonder, will ever give a shit? Who will remember her? Who will be credited for Kitauji's massive success story? They don't get gold just because they have a good euphonium.Kitauji WINS because KUMIKO OWNS THIS BAND. She, with Reina as her muse and Taki as her fist, made it what it is. Kumiko pulled the strings. Kumiko steered this busted fucking ship to national gold. She has spent three years asserting her vision, BTFOing slackers and brats, sticking to her guns and tactfully whipping it into shape. A decade from now she will still be remembered fondly by Kitauji HS Concert Band while Mayu copes getting her muff ate by some literalwho percussionist with glasses
>>268242990woah...mayu should do this with kumiko
>>268243762this is incredibly based, and I definitely jibe with it. but unfortunately, I don't think most will see it as Kumiko's win specifically. I don't quite either to be honest. I doubt a decade from now the current members will probably think of her more as a friend than a band leader or player.
>>268243762A decade from now they'll learn Mayu was from Seira and go "Oh so that's how you guys won gold finally."
>>268243762>KUMIKO OWNS THIS BANDNo the school does and they're the one that reaps all the benefits of winning the year after when Kumiko doesn't even go there anymore.
>>268244339Still, that fact that Kumiko took them to the nationals and won, which no other president has done, means she’s objectively the best.
>>268244431If you just compare results sure, but they weren't all exactly working with equal circumstances.
>>268244431that's not fair on other president. kumiko's tenure has, by far, the deepest talent pool.
>>268240626>season 1norwood I>season 2 norwood II>season 3norwood IV
>>268244679>>268244777Ultimately what will be remembered is the picture on the wall of Kumiko holding gold at nationals. I can tell you someone who won’t be remembered: President fucking Yuuko

>>268237422School band in Japan is like 90% females. And Shoe is 180 cm tall, I think the tallest in the band after Gotou senpai left. Pic related.

>>268245408>school bands are 90% females>pro bands are <50% femalesfiltered hard by real life
>>268237319I picture adult Shoe as an unmarried incel salaryman who still cries himself to sleep over Kumiko. Of course he knows she came out as a lesbian and is happily married to another woman, because he stalked her online for a long time. But he will live in denial for the rest of his days. A truly sad and pathetic existence, eternally obsessed with someone he never could have in the first place.

>>268235897>wHat iS lE MeSsAGe SuPPpOSeD 2 bTime for you to come to terms with the facts that 1) there is no meaningful message in most lowest common denominator anime slop, and even if there was itd be messages that'd fly over YOUR head cause of that narrow ass world view of yours2) obsession and need to be taught is an Americana exclusive thing, most cultures dont watch ENTERTAINMENT to be told how to live their lives, they watch it to be entertained and, at most, will want for childrens cartoons to not teach their kids the WRONG things3) reading overly much into anime is a ridiculous act to perform. 99% of what you watch was made in sweatshop environments where true, multilayered artistic intent is not only impossible given the time constraints imposed on those making the shows, it's also unlikely to happen cause animation directors a) arent particularly good and, b) unlike live action directors, cant just reshoot (or shoot too much) content (to begin with) to improve on subpar choices mid productionIf you're a grown ass man it's time to stop watching Mexican Soap Operas - Japanese Edition expecting lE MeSsAGe and instead come to terms wtih what it is you're enjoying: lowest common denominator slop broadcasting at 1am for failed people to feel a bit better about themselves.
>>268258996I'm talking about the writing, retard, not the directing. "multilayered artistic intent", could you be any more pretentious?
>>268258228Aww, why is the 2nd year shy trumpet girl the only one with a frown :(>>268258996why would you post this incorrect opinion in the Hibike thread of ALL shows, the fucking one with the cute floof girl crying and running screaming "I WANT TO GET BETTER" over and over again when the pixie dream girl came into her life. But good point - yes, only western countries watch media for non entertainment purposes, all other cultures are mindless slop munchers. Good on America for being the only ones that make art. Incredibly smart observation you just made. And for the 3rd point, again, why in the kyoani thread, that has a history of taking their time planning their projects, having their scripts finalised a year in advance. The obvious answer to >>268235897 was that Reina is a bitch, and you should never have found her relatable in the first place. She is the unparalleled standard that pulls cynical people like us anons out of our self-pity well and actually try, finding out it's really hard, but worth it, and also learning that if you try too hard, you end up like Reina, so some self awareness with the dedication is always a welcome thing too.
>>268255774And they played the song! the musical equivalent of "they said the thing!"
>>268259536>Good on America for being the only ones that make art. Incredibly smart observation you just made.Nice reading comprehension skills. Americans dont make art cause they make things with an audience that wants to be taught in mind. That's not art, it's educational television. No Soviet watched Tarkovsky and wanted the film to teach them a thing. Tarkovsky even outright rejects the idea that his films are meant to be analysed or instruct their viewership. You don't even get what art is cause the term has been diluted beyond recognition. Any tard holding a pencil touts themselves an artist now. The inbetweener who has no creative freedom, draws based on given keyposes and model sheets is an artist cause they hold a pencil the right way. The guy who paints a background in 5 minutes based on a pre-established layout is an artist cause he holds a brush the right way. The scriptwriter is an artist cause they copy the source material line for line and occasionally cut baggage to fit it into timeframe a television episodes provides them with. Don't make me laugh, you American dog.>And for the 3rd point, again, why in the kyoani thread, that has a history of taking their time planning their projects, having their scripts finalised a year in advance.I addressed this by saying that anime directors aren't very good. Learn to read. Oh wait, I get it. You think they are haha. Wow, reality will be hard on you once you realize...
>>268247776True. Pretty much all of them look like they could be part of the main cast
>>268245408Shoe not having 50 orbiters and "waiting for Kumiko" is honestly the least realistic part of the whole show.
insane that we only get to hear the song once and with Kumiko not playing soli
>>268259740Ah fair enough, I wasn't expecting Paul Schrader to pop in to tell us about transcendental cinema in the show about cute lesbians tooting their hearts out. I'll watch jeanne dielman just for you anon, but not before the finale tomorrow
>>268260287No Anon, that's what you don't get. I am not saying that watching slop is bad. That you should watch le highbrow art films instead. I am saying it's bad to go into a show like Eupho expecting for there to be more. To expect a message that's being taught and to be pissed about there not being. Or to try really hard to identify one when there clearly isn't one there. Every narrative choice can be read as a message, but in reality they rarely are such. And it's fine for them to not be. Cause this stuff shouldn't teach you a thing. It should make you feel. And if it accomplishes that, then that's good enough for it to exist. And it's perfectly fine to enjoy it for that. Don't be some cringe anituber who cites social scientists from 60 years ago in an attempt to decode what something could aim to convey. It's cringe, and directors will only laugh at you for doing so. It's what midwits do. Who thinking citations make them appear smart.

>>268267943Why does Safaya look stoned in the novel cover art?
Always remember: Takeda regretted not making Eupho a proper yuri series. That's why she wrote a yuri work right afterwards and that's why she approves any change to the adaptation that makes it more yuri.
>>268268251Imagine how much drama we could’ve gotten with a KumiReiShu love triangle

>>268268096they didn't named her after a rock for no reason
>>268223505>The way I see it, she genuinely wanted to play the part because she wants to be recognized for her skill, but ALSO wanted to not play it if it was going to cause trouble.They spelled it out for us in episode 11. Mayu loves playing and playing with others. She's honest about wanting to drop out because she's traumatized about her best friend dropping music when Mayu kept getting the seat, and she just wants everyone to have fun. At the same time she also really wants to play, so she can't bring herself to quit, which is why she keeps trying to get Kumiko to push her to do it, but Kumiko is in a similar dilemma herself so she can't say yes.

>>268283388Depends a bit on the instrument but yes.With a string instrument like guitar, there is a lot of technique and skill with playing good and sounding good, but when it comes to the basic mechanics, for the most part you just pick the string and the sound comes out. For a wind instrument you really need to learn how to actually make the sound. it's a very counterintuitive process for most of them, and it takes a LOT of practice before the sound itself is good.I play french horn, which is considered to be one of the hardest instruments, and it took me a couple of YEARS before the sound that came out of my instrument was anything that anyone else would want to listen to. Controlling the sound remains difficult at all skill levels.
