Say goodbye to Himari because you won't be seeing her again for a while.
>>268264774Good. She's garbage
How could Yokohama Animation Lab mess up so bad?
>>268264774>subs delayedHaha... It's fine, we're in no hurry. We don't even know when episode 11 will come out...
>>268265007How delayed are we talking about here?
>>268265037Indefinitely. Certainly over two weeks since that's how long we had to wait between 8 and 9 and they announced that immediately. Could be a month, or several because who knows if they have time to work on the episodes full time with the next season incoming. Worst-case scenario it'll be a low-priority project. The BD release has also been delayed so it's not like they have a firm public deadline.
Worst fuckup since Haduki's anime?
>>268265134How did they mess up so badly in the first place?
>>268265164Wonder Egg Priority? Masters Eight?
>>268265037Re: subs today, looks like 6:30 PM PST.
This is crashing harder than the Nier anime in terms of production issues.
>>268265037Remember a few weeks ago when subs were delayed almost half a day? Same thing again this time apparently. I guess it's a Hidive problem.
>>268265279>>Wonder Egg Priority?Just one long-delayed episode and animation-wise the show looked pretty good before then. A lot of stuff from recent seasons like Nier and Isekai Ojiisan were hit by much worse delays.>Masters EightDefinitely a shitshow but to be fair it was from a show that's supposed to put out an episode every week without cour breaks. Sasakoi was just one cour AND it was already delayed by a season, proper production planning shouldn't have been so hard.
>>268265134The big problem is trying to find a slot to air them on TV. Zom 100 last year had the same problem due to it's delays. They'll probably end up being delayed until the end of next season.
>>268265164This is worse because the staff actually mutinied
>>268265656WEPs problem wasn't so much the delay, it was the production disaster behind the scenes that led to it. They didn't even have the fucking script finished when they went into production which led to that shitty ending.
>>268265776The script was already garbage after the first few episodes anyway, maybe they should've just animated random cool sequences without worrying so much about it.
>>268265988Mari should've sat on Kaori's lap to make the two sides of the table balanced.
>>268264774I need her to ride my face on a nightly basis.
>>268266108Cute corpse.
>>268266108Nice pits
>>268264774I just remembered that the airing date for this anime was delayed from winter to spring. The signs were already there after all.
>>268266221Is there a fuller shot of this
>>268266294Yuyu-sama and her cute daughter Yuri
>this was the only yuri anime of the season in the endSad
>>268266396jej
>>268265007lol yurifags just can't win
The absolute madmen actually skipped YoriHima's first kiss.Nice "yuri" anime.
>>268264774Never thought the anime would rush to finish this arc but I am glad they made such decision. Shiho makes everything kino. Some really kino shots. Even BGM is kino this episode.
>>268267224They are going to merge the firework festival into the school festival.
>>268267078It's this moment where everything was set into motion. It's all Aki's fault for not knowing her power level.
You will get 2 kisses in the final episode and Ayaka introduced for Miki arc and you will like it.
Shiho...
>>268267532Nothing to misunderstand here
>>268266998>>268267030>>268267078Cute couple that will never be
>>268266669High IQ Kino
The pretty eyes from episode 4? 5? came back...
>>268267586>that will never be
>>268267296No they turned it into a voiced manga lolhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJBzxgqTPY0
>>268267710
https://x.com/ichijinsha_info/status/1807097950159667396They ran out the PVs thanks to the delays.
>>268267710>>268267732Yurifags...won? Is this a win???
https://x.com/sasakoi_anime/status/1807097446918770774
The stage play Momoka actress (right) also looks so comfy...
>>268267912>>268267761Should have gotten 2 course, but actual yuri audience is too small for that..
Why did Aki play with Shiho's feelings?
>>268267710>side characters steal the anime so hard the protagonists' first kiss gets relegated to side materialHow much does Eku wish she could restart the manga with Aki as the main character?
>>268268005She's literally harem mc level of dense. She did the same thing to her sister and made her all weird too.
author tweeted about the animehttps://x.com/takeshimaxfj/status/1807099208333467937
Fuck Shiho
>>268268081At least we know 11 and 12 are coming eventually.
>>268268075They hate each other.
>>268268081About time.
>>268268081Well technically the anime broadcast season ended today so she probably had to do it...
>>268268048Why not just end the manga and make a spinoff staring Aki then? I call it, Sasakoi+
>>268267586Stop posting Miki
>the staff is refusing to make the final episodeswhy
>>268268197>It was then she knew, she fucked up
Fuck Aki
Marry Shiho
>>268268229That can't be true. They love the series after all.
>>268267710Un-fucking-believable. The author got monkey paw'd so hard.
>>268268563What makes you think she had no say in this? She loves AkiShiho (like everybody else).
>>268266328This dense cunt repeatedly going to the grave of the girl she cut herself off from while continuing to act in the exact same way to another girl she has the hots for. We might love Shiho but fuck me are you not meant to do a little self reflection upon visiting the dead?
With this we're honestly past Haduki-tier. Imagine skipping the first kiss between the main characters in a romance anime.
Shiho is fragile, not dense.
>>268268088I'd love to...
>>268268749I mean what you're saying literally comes up later.Shiho sees Kyou's spirit when shes about to break things off with Aki and realizes she shouldn't make the same mistake again. It's part of the reason they end up together.
This is what Sasakoi schizo deserves for shitting up GBC and JELEE threads.
>>268267224You're kidding, right?
>>268268836Dumb male
>>268268772>main charactersThey are not the main characters anymore, sure its why everyone started reading in the first place but they got sidelined pretty swiftly. Its pretty obvious that Eku actually wants to create fucked up yuri like everyone else and the fluff was to just get her in the door. ha ha heres some DV and incest.
>>268268966No, it's 100% true. At least the alternative they made looks better than the anime: >>268267710
>>268268865I'd haunt the retard as well to be fair.
>>268269021Un-fucking-believable.
>every yuri anime completely collapsed this season.Why did this happen?
>>268269345I blame that pink cunt Bocchi for all these band anime.
>>268269345Retribution for Mahoako selling 11k BDs per volume. Today's blunder with Sasakoi specifically happened because yesterday Takeshobo announced they're planning to resume Mahoako's serialization soon.
>>268266487Seiyuu Radio had the best two moments of the season with the tittyfondling, but was mediocre overall.
>>268269573Was it worth?
>>268269345Yuri fans spend their money and energy on mainstream non-yuri work's ships instead of supporting actual yuri works.
>>268269666Yeah. Mahoako anime was a fucking miracle of the universe.Absolutely worth it.
>>268269573They didn't say that though. The mangaka literally asked for more time to recover from whatever it is.
>>268269345Bushiroad also dumped their only project with explicit yuri to the developer Donuts.Coincidentally it has a Sasakoi collab originally scheduled to end in July, and now indefinitely extended because the final 2 episodes.
>>268269345and next season looks even worse
>>268269758For some reason everyone took this as the manga will be back in a week.
>>268269899Don't we have a cheerleader anime made by the yuri creators behind the yuri anime about the yuri band MyGO next season?
>>268269666Yes it was, Satan.>there were some people worried they'd tone down the yuri alongside the increased lewness evident from the first few episodes in order to attract the ecchi waifufag audience>the staff literally titled the Loco X Leber sex episode "Loco X Leber">extended the sex scene with more context to their romance>released this piece of official art after the episode aired>announced a theater screening of the episode afterwards where they gave spectators a naked version of said artAll while also working with a limited budget.
>>268269937>P.A. Works originalOnly a retard would expect it to be yuri
>one of the best selling yuri anime>anime gets dogshit productionwhy
>>268269758>>268269933They said they decided to wait longer after having some meetings so the author has been recovering, just not enough to be safe yet. If they decided to let people know, I doubt it's going to take that much longer. Personally I expect September.
>>268269899Today I watched the online advanced airing of VTuber Legend and it is indeed very yuri. The MC says some other VTuber is very flapable and later asks to marry another Vtuber colleague. All as part of her true personality.
>>268269937PA Works has never made a yuri show in their life.They specialize in yuribait.
>>268270021WataYuri didn't sell well despite the quality.
>>268269937First of all,>P.A. WorksSecondly,MyGO is not particularly yuri. It's not even as yuri as Garukura.
>>268270006>>268270138There is a first in everything. It is by the writers of lesbian band anime MyGO from BanG Dream.
>>268270150Watayuri manga sales increased a lot because of the anime, aside from Watayuri having far more merch, please don't use irrelevant metrics like BD sales which don't make money.
How the HELL does this show have a >7 rating on THAT website?Like, WHAT?
>>268270122They get together later in the novels, but it's full of dck jokes
>Dating couple didn't kissYawn, they are doing the right thing by skipping pointless stuff and focusing on actual plot and romance drama
>>268269899Unironically the cosplay harem anime 2.5D Seduction. They have an important lesbian side couple, and all the harem girls are also bisluts.
>>268270221Maybe if the show wasn't another one of their tourism advertisements; they'll play it safe as usual.
>>268267710So the skipped the kiss and they skipped Kino and Yori sleeping together. This anime is now worthless to me.Who makes these fucking decisions?
>>268270277Yeah 1st episode has the dick shaped objects fighting game...
>>268270277>They get together later in the novels, but it's full of dck jokesWell many lesbians love reading yaoi works and it doesn't stop themf rom ksising and fucking other girls anon.Many lesbians also joke about dicks of how weird, small and useless they are compared to dildos or strap-ons which always stay hard and clean to use.
>>268270336Shiho simps like >>268267242
>>268270216>MyGO is not particularly yuriMyGO is so yuri charged it's insane. Just because there's no confession doesn't make it not particularly yuri.
I can feel it... Shuukura will have a similarly shit adaptation, if it gets any...
>>268270353>>268270374I am not saying it's less yuri because of that, it just has crude humor, stuff like Watanugi is not for everyone for example
We did it. We beat yuri.
>>268270602I mean, how hard is to animate two girls in the same fucking room every episode
Watayuri anime but instead of doing just the first four volumes and giving all main characters equal screentime, it rushes through Hime and Yano's scenes to get to the current Kanoko arc, skipping Yano confessing to and kissing Hime in the process.
>>268266221Did she have the clannaids?
>>268266221So who got her heart transplant?
>>268267924Right clearly is eaten out her!
>>268270727>Watayuri anime but (more Kanoko)Sign me up.
>>268270664The director will get bored and add in more locations and characters, and then not animate any of the scenes of the girls doing lewd stuff to each other.
>>268270862She got truck-kun'd. Isekai spinoff once the author gets bored of the current manga.
>>268270664There are also school and bookstore at the minimal
>>268270909Left is Aki
>>268270937Can you have an open casket for truck-kun? Her body would be mush.
>>268271066It was a very gentle truck.
>>268271001Like 3 different locations
Why does /a/ love yuri so much? I swear /a/ loves yuri far more than every single other genre.
>>268271318Because dicks are icky.
>>268271318Not true, /a/ loves yaoi more, just look at any shonen thread
>>268270937>Isekai spinoff once the author gets bored of the current manga.It wouldn't actually be a bad idea for spin-off.
>>268267710Anyway, since the anime animation is silly, is had litte different after all
>>268267710>it's realLmao what the actual fuck
>>268271361I don't see any other genre's fans being so smug on this board, not even isekai or shonen. >>268271361Most shonenfags here are crossboarders or tourists.
Just look how much /a/ celebrated MahoAko's success because it was a yuri show, but when other genres have major successes /a/ is silent or even pissed. It is clear that /a/ or at least /a/core's favorite genre is yuri and it's not even close. There's a reason why /a/ had such high hopes for two particular originals this season and it ain't (just) cause they're originals.
>>268271363>cat girl Yori and dog girl Himari>musical magicDo it Takeshima.
>>268271450>>268271561You see anon, the thing about a lot of stuff here is that they are really long serializations, so at some point the fans grow out of it to the point they start hating those series, basically what I am saying is that we are satisfied with what we have.
>>268271980Just look how much threads for other genres here are full of "males ruin them, it would be better without males" or "it would have been better if it was yuri" posts. See how active threads for yuri or yuribait shows in general are (Seiyuu Radio and Sasakoi threads being so dead are abberations) compared to romcoms and other genres. See how beloved yuri shows are here in general, even the obscure ones. See how beloved Kirara is here, or how anons celebrate Kirara series that are full-blown yuri or have lesbian ends like New Game. There is simply no denying that yuri is, perhaps second only to CGDCT (and there's a large overlap anyway), /a/'s favorite genre.
>>268271980Don't reply, it's a schizo who always enters yuri threads to make the same "argument".
In fact I'd even argue that /a/ loves yuri a ton more than Japan itself. Yuri is popular among otaku, sure, but even there it isn't dominant and other genres have larger fanbases. By contrast, here yuri shows are more consistently liked. In Japan for example, romcoms are generally more popular than yuri, but here it's the opposite. Even isekai is arguably less popular than yuri here.
>>268272232What is wrong with him? Is he just going to keep talking to himself?
>>268272183>>268272287>>268272232I am not even disagreeing with him, just saying it's not like yuri is really beloved, rather it's just the rest of the industry is so shitty people are constatly fighting with each other, compare for example a kirara thread with Frieren which is 90% of people fighting if the series is good or shit.
>>268272417Yeah pretty much. People like him are why others are so hostile to yuri these days.
>>268272482I don't think you can blame some people from being so hostile to yuri or more specifically its fans when misandry is so common on /a/ these days. Granted, it's just a tiny minority of yuri fans who do it, but when they're so vocal and active, others can't help but get the impression that they are representative of the broader fanbase.
When will the show be coming back?
>>268272901I'm sorry, little Billy... Sasakoi died while you were at summer camp and we flushed it down the toilet.
>>268272901Nobody knows, probably a few months.
Did you enjoy this week's concentrated dose of Shiho kino?
>>268265459Learn French.
>>268272901Probably 3 months or more like Nier or 86
>needing subs for an adaptation
tfw HiDive is in charge of subbing your anime
>>268273419Th-thanks for pushing the culmination of Himari and Yori's romance in this romance series they're the main characters of aside in a youtube video, Shiho-sama...
Someone's head really needs to roll over the production mismanagement, this could've been a big hit.
The fireworks scene was the one saving grace, the one scene I was looking forward too after the production issues the ONE thing. I've been going through some terrible shit lately in my life, trying my best to claw and scrape any inch of joy or positive emotions out of every given day. I was looking so forward to seeing the cute and romantic fireworks festival kiss scene be animated and maybe get some good vibes from it but then I get to find this out today? I wouldn't even care if the last two eps never got animated but skipping over something like that? who makes that decision? legitimately who? is it suddenly not ok to show two girls kissing despite that not even being new and exciting anymore in anime? Jesus christ what a letdown.
>>268273678>the main characters
Shiho was a mistake
>>268273935Why did they spend six episodes on two side characters if they were going to shaft them so hard later instead of just starting with Shiho?
>>268273744Sorry for your loss anon, I understand your frustration.
>>268274092Because Hima becomes Shiho's hostage, the author was even teasing Shiho X Hima at some point.
>>268267710>they can't even deliver a kiss in the only explicit yuri anime of the seasonHoly shit, two nukes weren't enough
>>268274307>wasMiki wins AkiShiho loses her marbles and rapes HimariTrust the plan.
Imagine choosing drama and angst over a pretty kiss scene unreal
Maybe if she did anything all that interesting I could understand all the Shiho simping but shes just another bitchy bitch face cunty character so it all just comes off as contrarianism and being mindlessly antagonistic. So perfectly in keeping with every fucking series and thread that ever gets brought up.
>>268273583>>268273734And people call this beauty a cunt and a bitch
>>268275742Im convinced at this point that yuri fans don't want fluffy or sweet/cute and just want angst and drama
>>268276875The children yearn for Citrus S2
Remember when Magirevo moved things around to make sure the main couple got their big moment. This is the opposite of that and it sucks
>>268277035Remember when we thought they were rushing the pacing so it could end on the festival kiss?
>>268277073That sure was a fun thought because it would have been better than this at least
Pre-emptive F for the next kiss that's getting skipped.
The author should make an spin-off with Yori and Hima as the main characters.
>>268277035Don't worry, they're just making space for the main couple's aquarium date. Trust the plan wish I could say two more weeks
An anime original Aki x Miki ending will save it.
I don't know what you guys expected from the same studios that brought us slop like Tawawa and isekai #483291.
>>268273744Can relate to you, Anon. Sasakoi was giving me the energy to keep going each week and I was looking forward to this scene for so long. Damn, this was a major disappointment...
pls understand anime kisses are so hard to animate
There is now an extremely high chance this adaptation of a manga that could've reasonably reached a kiss on the lips in one cour will end with only kisses on the cheek not from failing to get to it, but from going so fast it skips it and even a second one that would follow. I'm starting to assume malice on part of the production since they should really fucking know what the audience would want to see.
>>268277477Aki and Shiho are by far more popular than Hima and Yori
>>268277748Their part of the story isn't fit to tell in a one-cour show. Even with all this cutting worthy of a butcher shop, there's no way they're getting to when they start dating.
>>268277299Probably expected them to not cut out the end of a major arc
>>268277811They can easily time skip or change the plot if they need to, even leaving it open is not a bad choice considering it is the most interesting part of the series.
Yuri-bros... is love dead next season too?
>>268265754What the hell actually happened? Payment strike?
>>268266487So what were the others in the end? Did their studios even market it as yuri? Jellyfish kiss was bait and not followed up on fully? GBC people just had their goggles on tight?
>>268279127>GBC people just had their goggles on tight?There's an exchange in GBC where, after a dramatic moment, one girl says I love you, follows up by calling it a confession, the other girl starts crying, and it's never mentioned again. It's been that kind of season.
>>268268772Rush the boring characters out of the way, but use them to make it clear everyone in the cast is a homo and let the triangle and drama start.
>>268279127Only Sasakoi and Seyuu Radio are marketed as yuri.
>>268276875Purely fluff is something I can only read once in a while, as it gets repetitive very fast. But I would pick plot with a side of romance over romance with huge portions of drama every day. This applies both to straight and yuri romances
>>268279359I completely forgot about Radio.
>>268276875There are different kinds of drama. It's hard to explain but the Shiho arc feels even fluffier to me than something like Sakura Trick.
>>268279684And no one can blame you for that.
>>268279127Nah it's shitposting, all of them were yuri. Retards act like they need to remind everyone it's yuri every episode or something.
The last episode of The New Gate looked terrible too so this studio must really be struggling.
>>268281129>looked terribleThe New Gate had more romance than this show, and that's all that matters.
>>268281170The New Gate had less yuri than this show, and that's all that matters.
>>268281129The New Gate is being done by a Chinese studio.
>>268281912Is it outsourced then? Since that and Sasakoi are both listed as Yokohama Animation Lab.
>>268281999Oh my bad, it looks like the final episode wasn't outsourced but instead going by the credits it looks like it was done by a skeleton crew. Usually if they do outsource you'll see who they outsourced it to in the credits, like in the first episode (pic).
>>268281999>>268282199Wait nvm, found the correct credit portions of the final episode.
>>268282298
>>268280072Was GBC worth watching?
>>268283307Yes. I was skeptical about the CG but it turned out quite nicely. The plot isn't brilliant but it's decent enough.
subs out
>>268283656shit i completely forgot this was airing
>>268283307It was great.
>>268264774Why is this so boring...
>>268284128Not enough ShihoAki
>>268284128Because it isn't an action show? Sorry your shonenshit brain can't understand that not everyone likes that stuff.
Watching this anime feel yuri like all the relationships are reskinned to be between girls
This whole backstory was really well done, despite how much Shiho bothers people.
Seems like 2023 had better Yuri than 2024 so far. This show crashed, Radio was under watched, Jellyfish had a decent ending but Kinda dropped the ball on the relationship. GBC ended up carrying the weight it seems.
these 2 continue to be the only good reason to watch this anime
If Seyuu Radio was marketed as Yuri, well that's misleading, a part two fanservice boobs play, it was not yuri at all, in the last episode they joked also on doing a yuribait episode in the radio to catch fans scared by their rivarly
>>268275742>shes just another bitchy bitch face cunty character
the dreaded japanese cold claimed another one...
>>268284395Yeah, 2023 had decent adaptations of MagiRevo, WataYuri and WataOshi This year only had MahoAko, and the rest of the year seems pretty dead
>>268284444Quads wasted on broken English, low-quality bullshit.
This is now the official laugh at Shiho thread.
man i just wanted something cute to watchwhy would you ever throw "my girlfriend is fucking dead" in a yuri manga
>MISUNDERSTANDINGS, AGAINam i supposed to feel sorry for this autistic bitch because i don't
>>268284653>This is now the official laugh at Shiho thread.>she's just seething because she got cuckedhah
gee i wonder why
>>268284444this
Shiho...had a hard life...
>>268285013she deserves worse
the absolute STATE
>>268285013dumb bitch mostly did it to herself
>>268284128This isn't the Girls Bore Cry thread
>>268285194This scene was really well done (even if it was carried mostly by the music).
>Made Momoka cry>Constantly have a melty when Aki is mentioned or nearby>Claims Kyou "stole" the only thing she was good at>Attempting to provoke Yori >Treats Himari like a cuntWhy do you retards like this cunt again?
>>268285043Antiyuri schizos be like
>>268285365It's melodramatic cheese. Last she needs to do is make out with another girl in front of another girl
>>268284395>GBC ended up carrying the weight it seemsGBC isn't even yuri.
I feel so bad for Eku. It's a sin that such a great manga got this mess of an adaptation. At least we got to hear best girl's voice, I guess.
>>268286086Her song is really great tho
>>268286113Agreed, メリトクラシー rocks
Well, until next year yuribros, maybe we'll have better luck then
>>268286086What's wrong with it? The staff worked love to put their LOVE into after all.>>268268266
>>268284263It's... kino
>>268285016cool shiho scene
>>268285293bgm is actually really good this episode
>>268285363shiho absolute territory
Do you think they cut out the firework festival because the broadcast season ends this episode and they want to finish the Shiho backstory right here? Otherwise it would stretch into the TBD episodes.
The most fuck up thing is the anime still gets lots of buzz on SNS every time it airs.Imagine how successful it could be if yuri has money.
>Aki was constantly all over Shiho>Never noticed her feelingsIs Aki more dense than your average harem MC?
Reminder that it's all Aki's fault
Will this be the last of Yuri Hime anime in a while? Don't see any other series worth spending money on to adapt, plus it is obvious they ran out of money after the WataYuri, WataOshi, Ohmuroke, Sasakoi blitz.
>>268287330Asumi anime soon. Trust the plan.
>>268287398It's too hard to adapt. Mahoako at least has fights. Asumi is just lesbian sex after lesbian sex.
They should do a remake in 10 years.
>>268287330Yuru Yuri S4 was already leaked, I would expect Kyoukano to get one too.
>>268287721leaked by who
>>268287452expand the slice of life and romcom elements of it and you can easily make it an anime.
>>268266487Told you but you didn't listen
>>268287901Sugoilite, he leaked it together with the movies like 6 months before they were announced
>>268287058It's a vicious cycle. Ichijinsha only invest money on moeshit like Yuruyuri and Wataten under the premise that yuri doesn't sell but they end ruining every yuri adaptation for lack of budget so it never had a chance in the first place
>>268283752So did the animators.
>>268266096>>268266096Yori...
>>268289108is so cool
>>268267710The superior version
>>268284515It also had G-witch, Telepath, and Hikikomari. MyGO if you wanna include girls band with Yuri subtext. It was just more variety and quality all around.
>>268266487>this was the most explicit yuri anime of the season in the endftfy
I wonder if Eku took Yauma along to see the production to get her used to the idea of her series getting completely raped. "You too can look forward to pretending that everything is great because you can't throw the poor bastards working on it under the bus. Editor-san says theres no money left in the anime production pot."
>>268289390How come WataYuri mangaka was the one to get mental issue
>>268289488Poor Miman has been in the depths of Kanoko based hell for literal years. Shes finally made it into the end stretch and the relief has knocked her down knowing the darkness is now finally behind her. Really though I hope she does not come back before shes ready WataYuri has been actually amazing for the past 5-ish chapters and I don't want it to suffer.
>>268289552Yeah it was a terrible time to go on hiatus. Hope she gets well soon.
>>268289390You are aware they only really get to talk with the director and seyuus, right? And if we are being honest, all those dykes only want to talk to the seyuus.
>Unzips and piss on her grave
>>268289772Hot
>>268289762Theres no way they could show the creators the battery hen sweatshop animation studios, with the blankets under desks and piss bottles scattered around. Much easier to have them see the "public face" of the production. I wonder if theres ever been an author created "I went to visit the anime" short strip that was mostly negative. >The VAs were shit! The director was too vague! My designs have been ruined!
>>268289808Anon, you should know by now that if you talk about those things you are out of the industry, what happens with animators is nothing close of what is behind the seyuu and idol businesses.
>>268289772>piss*cums
>>268289860She can do both
Hima is kinda of a shitty manager
>>268289842I might not have been being entirely serious anon. Sorry.
>>268289924It's the typical hero(ine)'s arc of >they try>things get worse>things eventually get better>happy end
Shiho carries this franchise so hard.
>>268290152Things didn't got better, what are you talking about? She got Shiho and Aki together and fucked Miki's love life instead, all Hima and Yori do is bring suffering to everyone else.
>>268289924Shiho's fault for hiring the retard in the first place.
>>268289772No dancing?
>>268290320Hima wouldn't have got kidnapped by Shiho if she didn't want to make her happy with lots of friends like a psychopath would
>>268290329Not enough budget to animate it
This may sound controversial but what if we ban dating in the band?
All Shiho needs is a hug and shoulder to cry on
>>268290359But no one in the band is dating, Hima is the manager of another band and Shiho is also part of that other band
>>268290359Way too late, "that ship has sailed", so to speak. >Kaori and Mari totally banging in the background with no drama, practically a married couple already>Momoka and Hajime at the very least in love with each other but too afraid to make it official because Momoka dated Kyou, Hajime's dead nee-san
>>268290485Neither one of those are couples or are going to end together if you are actually watching the series
>>268290660Aki will accidentally force them together
>>268290695More like they will all fall in love with Aki, causing more drama.>that chapter where Kyou returns from the dead just to confess her love to Aki
>>268290712Talking about Kyou>That sad realization Momoka was just a cope and she was in love with Shiho
>>268290712Momoka wouldn't do that because she cares about Shiho
>>268290747>Momoka said she was her senpai in the Wind Instrument clubI don't get it. Kyou played violin. Why would she be in the wind instrument club?
>>268290799Why would she bother being in a club about something she already is bored to hell to play?
My tortured wife Momoka, realizing she's going back on hiatus with no return date.
>>268290975Your going back with her Hajime.
>>268290293How was Hima supposed to know her bff was a degenerate siscon?
>>268284541What kind of ending to a yuri is this?
>>268291067It's not the ending though
>>268291056Yayas always come in two
>>268291056The fact she never shut up about her sister from the very start?
>>268291279Kino has a double digit iq Please understand
>skipped the rest of chapter 30, all of 31 and 32 which were the climax of Yori and Himari's relationship and featured tons of development for them but don't worry, they made them into a slideshow with voices on youtube so it's actually better than the rest of the anime>skipped chapter 33 which was the rare Mari/Kaori chapter, just got in the bit of the SS Girls starting to work on their new song>adapted chapter 35 but skipped the first half of the Yori/Himari date, only got in the part where they talk about ShihoComical adaptation, it's like they took the comments about Shiho taking over the series and brought them to their logical conclusion.
>>268291352Shiho IS the series. Don't like it? Kick rocks.
Will the bad adaptation kill Kino's VA's career? This was supposed to be her big break.
>>268291668Honestly she seems to be a dime a dozen cute-sounding VA and Himari's character hasn't given her the chance to flex any range she might have.
>>268291352Please understand that the staff perfectly grasped that the reason people picked up and started reading this series is no longer what they continue to read for. Eku is simply serving her fanbase what they want, I mean at least Yori and Kino-san get to actually stay in their series unlike Hime who even though she was brought up every chapter was not actually allowed to appear for sometimes months at a time.Its just a symptom of long running yuri series that inevitably both the audience and author will turn on the main characters and push their actual favourite which is always the menhera side girl.
>Anon learns about ensemble casts for the first time
>>268291895I didn't know ensemble cast means taking out the screentime of most of said cast in favor of just one character.
Is this anime gay? Just because I don’t like gay things.
>>268291924Which one? I could understand if you said two, since both Hima and Shiho have been the focus frequently, but not one.
>>268291958Straightest, most heterosexual anime of the season. Possibly of the year.
>>268291985Himari's screentime in the anime has almost all been as a supporting character to Shiho since the latter was properly introduced due to everything not revolving around Shiho getting trimmed down or skipped.
>>268291985Shiho has been the centre and driving force behind the entire plot since she turned up in the series. Her impact far far outweighs everyone else combined. Neither of our supposed "main characters" have gotten a tear filled multi-chapter flashback, in fact we actually know next to nothing about the past of Kino and Yori. Thats because they don't matter, they were bait to get asses in seats, prepare for the main event, its a tsundere with mental issues.
>>268291783There's another newbie VA in the main cast right? Let's hope Sasakoi doesn't kill her career either.
13 episodes would have been perfect. I wonder if the first anime staff quitted because it was cut down to 12.
Without an animated Yuri kiss, this show its only about high school girls larping as girlfriends in their teens.
>>268292235I can't believe Sasakoi anime is anti-yuri?!
>>268292133Knowing the director got changed during production and looking at the "finished" product, I get the feeling the first director may have planned not to get all the way to volume 9. The first six episodes go at an okay pace just skipping minor scenes here and there, then the second half has been making bigger and bigger cuts to the point they skipped an entire volume in this episode. It's also weird to think that a production with the skewed priorities we're seeing right now would've given Yori and Himari so much time in the first half instead of trimming that down too and even the overall pacing out a little.
>>268292261>skipping minor scenesThey skipped Yori's dad. He doesn't even exist anymore.
>>268292394They said happy father's day to him in the audio message on X.
>>268292394He's literally only in that scene and I believe one volume extra, Takeshima herself forgot.
>>268292414There's one more panel in chapter ~29 when he barges into Yori's room when she's thinking about kissing Himari>even that voice comic thing cut him out too
>>268292613The voice comic is supposed to be a replacement for all that stuff not being in the anime, so they had to stay consistent with him not having been introduced earlier.
The QUALITY hasn't been that bad since the Shiho arc begun, but most people already dropped the anime.
>>268292677It still has its moments, look at this football head Momoka.
So what exactly went wrong with Yokohama Animation Lab to reach this point in the first place?
>>268285309Holy mentally used goods. Shiho deserves someone better than this whore. Just read the manga and their resolution was so short and so unearned on Aki's side. At least they're more interesting than the main characters I find my self skipping through their shit.
Hima is so annoying she's like and awful annoying justice fag. Also Yori has like 0 personality.
>>268292748It's the substudio called Cloud Hearts, which has always been bad.The whole studio did good works like Lapis Re:LiGHTs.
>>268267710Finally finished it, and it's really fucking bittersweet seeing as this is the YoriHima-centric editing >>268292649 I so sorely missed in the anime (it's more like they did the complete opposite), and the comments about how it looks better than the actual anime are pretty much true, but I'm still insulted those chapters were thrown to the side in a YouTube extra.
>>268292943https://www.livechart.me/studios/1694This says the only started doing production last year.
>>268291783In a bit of a sick twist, she shows a bit more range in the voice comic, but those chapters were relegated to that because>gotta stuff more Shiho shit in
>>268293049>"You gotta make Shiho look really strong."
>>268293030Yeah Iceblade is their first big one and it is very bad too
We need a VN where you can choose YoriKino route or ShihoAki route
>>268293140Whenever Shiho isn't on screen, the other characters should be asking "Where's Shiho?"
>>268284493Amasawa KyouAmasawa AkiraAmawashi Aoi So 天 is the name kanji for all dead girls now.
>>268293183Sorry, I'm going ShihoKino and YoriAki.
>>268293170Too ordinary for you?
>>268293200>Amawashi AoiI also want to watch the alternate timeline version of Birdie Wing where Aoi dies at the end instead of the lukewarm shit we got.
>>268285046>mostlyEntirely.
>>268293200>Amasawa AkiraWho? Or are you thinking about Akari Amasawa from Selection Project?
>>268293257This. Typing too fast.
>>268293189Yori-senpai whats wrong with your HEADDDDDDDDDDD. This fucking show never had a single consistent model.
>>268287058Producers should have spent their budget paying the animators instead of buying shill bots.
>>268293200天堂はやて bros...
>>268293302It's obviously organic
>>268291668She's already a Precure. Her career is settled.
>>268265656>Just one long-delayed episode and animation-wise the show looked pretty good before then.Remember how they took three months to shit out the last 20 minutes of the show and this is what it looked like?
>>268293554Wait, what?
>>268293614I didn't watch the last episode, I don't even know how I made it to the one before the hiatus. But I know they were begging freelance animators on twitter to join them for that episode.
>>268292707
>>268291067The ending is them angrily saying nice things about each other while kicking each other under the table.
Can't have a bad ending like Yorukura and Garukura if you don't have an ending.Checkmate.
>>268292943Speaking of which, I wonder what the latest anime Yukari Anzai has killed? ... and it looks like she had a minor part in Rinkai this past season so there you go.
Mahoako S2 will save yuri again and curse the season after it airs again.
>>268265656>>268293614A delayed last episode is a certain death sentence for an anime. The only case where a delayed ending ended up being great was 86.
>>268293786>The only case where a delayed ending ended up being great was 86.Madoka? GuP?
>>268293774She was in World Dai Star too.
>>268293774She's also in World Dai Star
>>268293756This show was never going to have an ending like those two. Sasakoi's main couple is literally a sneeze away from fucking at this point too bad no one cares about them.
>>268293786Yeah, Madoka died a brutal death in 2011.
>>268293830>spoilerNot even the studio does when they keep skipping their scenes.
>>268293808In Madoka’s case, it wasn’t a production delay, they just couldn’t broadcast the final episode because of the flooding And GuP was delayed? Which part? I genuinely haven’t heard about that
>>268293830Wouldn't it have been nice to see the first scene where they almost fuck, haha...
>>268293862>And GuP was delayed?GuP aired 10 episodes before going on a three-month hiatus for the last two.
>>268293830There seems to be a pattern of yurifags not caring about confirmed pairings
>>268293813And >>268293170 funny enough.
>>268293909Not true. Himari and Yori are just boring as fuck.
>>268293848The difference is Madoka was an original and everyone couldn't wait to see how it ended. Episode 10 was the perfect spot to leave off and there was even a tsunami delaying walmart night like some kind of conspiracy by big weather. Not to mention there was an early date set for when it would return. Everyone knows by now how Sasakoi should end, how it won't live up to the ending in their heads, and to make things worse they jettisoned the emotional climax for the main characters. Though I can't agree it will kill the anime's momentum any more than they already did.
>>268293909It’s the same as Revue Starlight, where no one cares about Karen and Hikari, because they are by far the most safe, boring and predictable characters in their series
>>268293920So she's truly a killer of anime and multimedia franchises?
>>268293909What a weird statement to make like Aki and Shiho aren't a couple.
>>268294101They won't be in the anime unless they change it so that Aki already accepts dating Shiho at the end of the school festival.
>>268291279Was anyone really calling an incest arc before the last couple of chapters?
Are we really gonna have to wait a long time to be reunited with Himari?
>>268294070Shittiest songs too.
>>268294349There is also a stage play in July
How do I become as cool as Yori-senpai?
>>268294386Embrace the pussy.
>>268294368It's just not the same
Why was Seiyuu Radio so unpopular on /a/?
>>268294368>Shiho being Shiho>In 3D
>>268294450Because of the shitty drama, especially everything involving the retarded wager. Also no relationship development between the main characters despite the baiting bath scenes
>>268294505But /a/ loves gyarus
>>268294450For the same reasons hardly anyone ever talked about it on /u/.
>>268294569Which is?
>>268294386Find a cute bitchy girl named Shiho and let her steal your girlfriend.
Cute dumb doggo
>>268294450Just because something is advertised as yuri doesn't mean it's any good.
https://x.com/TemmaYuuki/status/1807373442603503956Hayate seiyuu reviewing the fireworks festival audio drama
>>268294514I do love gyaru yuri
shiho will return, stronger.
>>268295292In The Yurivengers.
>>268295188Then why don't you live Yasumi
>>268294386>as cool as Yori-senpaiMany such cases
>>268293935Its not like they had much of a fucking choice where as most other series would be developing their main characters and giving them obstacles to overcome Yori and Kino-san were swiftly kicked to the fucking curb. Its not really the characters fault they were never given any development or backstory or anything. Oh fucking no woe betide anything come before the mighty Shiho best girl blah blah blah. Hopefully Miki has a fist fight with her at some point over Aki that might be interesting.
>>268295422>one character steals all the writer's attention>audience decides this character is saving the manga instead of sucking up the other characters' chances to be better in a vicious cycleLooking at you WataYuri.
>>268294594Its really really boring and each and every time you think progress is actually going to be made something else pops up to reset everything back to nothing. >>268295506Kanoko came good in the end though, a better comparison would be if WataYuri became entirely about Goeidou and you had people telling you that Goeidou is carrying the series and that Hime is actually really boring we need more Goeidou she never did anything wrong, heres a tragic backstory.
Shihobros...not like this.
>>268296003It's just subtext
>my sister's girlfriend
>>268296043The meme writes themselves
Where are the scale figures
>>268296043They tried dating but decided to stop because Momoka screamed Kyou's name in bed by accident and they both felt too awkward to continue.
>show finally got good>delayed foreverwhy
>>268295591I'm not saying Shiho or Kanoko are bad characters, they are the most interesting in their respective manga. But Kanoko's arc has been spinning its wheels so long it feels like there's nothing left to say yet it refuses to commit like ShihoAki did. And I've seen it repeated Hime and Yano are boring and they don't want to return to them which leaves the manga in an awkward spot.
>>268296043>my sister's girlfriend>she looks just like you>my sister's girlfriend>she's my girl too
What is it with yuri and NTR these days?
>>268295591>Hime is actually really boringThe public bath chapter redeemed Hime
>>268296408It's not ntr since they are not together yet
>>268296408>an actual yuri girl says "it's not yuri it's just subtext"This is actually hilarious.
>>268296130>forever
>>268296408Trying to raise interest
>>268296504Didn't Seiyuu Radio just do that?
I really can't unsee Yuu in Himari
>>268296592>Seiyuu Radio>"I fucking hate you, you dumb bitch.">"You are my eternal rival.">"I will celebrate your death, then smile when I read your obituary.">/a/: I-Is this yuri???
>>268296639They had baths together
>>268296639I was talking about the last episode outright saying "yuri bait" in the subs.
>>268296785Yes.
>>268295506At least WataYuri has the excuse that Kanoko is the fan favorite character in Japan, and increasing her prominence in the series makes sense.While Sasakoi fans are still very much "YoriHima #1", and have to watch Yori be nearly irrelevant for most of the manga, while Aki is at the center of the conflict for the 3rd arc straight.
>>268296812What the fuck were Yokohama Animation Lab and Cloud Hearts thinking?
>>268296412Neither Hime or Yano were ever boring in the first place, there was loads of places the story could have gone with their progressing relationship, Hime setting boundaries, Yano blundering through them while still being endearing. Competing for attention, Hime slowly coming around to maybe actually desiring a relationship herself. All of that was just completely removed wholesale. At least Eku farts out a YoriHima chapter now and again to remind people they exist.
I really hope this show doesn't kill Himari's VA's career.
>Kyou was very sexy>She had nice armpits>kill her offWhat did they mean by this?
>>268266221Can someone make a stitch of Kyou's dead body?
>>268284395so what big manga are even left at this point that could be adapted? We've had the most popular ones >>268284515 and Asumi is not getting an adaptaion, no matter how many times people say it. Maybe Anemone but that's fucking boring and just entered their worst arc it seems.
>>268297046Semi-Friend?
>>268297046Yuri will be reclining after Sasakoi...
>>268297046Watanugi.
>>268297128That's a bad thing
>>268297026M-momoka? What are planning on doing with it?
No dead Kyou stitch? Please? Thread's dying soon and who knows when we'll ever get another thread.
>>268297046Believe
>>268297226I just want to see it?
Everyone was so sad when Kyou died.
>>268297398Why do you want to see Kyou's cute dead body?
>>268297698But we already saw it in >>268266221, I was just asking for a stitch because we had a panning shot of it in the anime.
>>268297398Be the change you want to see anon.
>>268297864I don't have Photoshop or GIMP
>best girl gets Hello Kitty
>>268297018The car accident that killed her was caused by the driver being distracted by her pits.Expose your armpits at your own risk, girls.
>>268297046There are lots of big yuri series but they all either a) will get a live action instead (Green manga, Even Though We're Adults, Moon on a Rainy Night etc) or b) run in Cune, lol fuck you no anime or c) the big finished YH series like KitaKawa, KimiTsuzu or Lonely Girl magically get a show. At this stage however do you actually want any of those to be put into production after this complete disaster. Its not as if Ichijinsha is suddenly going to put up more cash or court a more relaible studio. I guess Passione cost way too much.
>>268296797>gyaru Shimamura reading the scripts to the last episodes of Yorukura and GBC
Fuck KyouFuck AkiFuck SS GirlsFuck YoriFuck HimariEveryone keeps stealing from me and deserves nothing but my wrath
>>268298041But we didn't even see the accident
Stitch where?
When the thread dies, the show will be as dead as Kyou
Why was Kyou so sexy?
Is it bad taste to fap to Kyou's pits?
>>268298551>>268298400She is dead.
>>268298551Momoka...
>>268298686And so?
>>268298686I mean you could feasibly fap to >>268266108 but if you fap to >>268266221 then you have problems.
>>268298800It's wrong to fap to the corpse of a yuri girl.
>>268298824But I'd be fapping to her pits, not to her wearing a white kimono while in a coffin.
Can girls fap?
>>268298043Shuukura is our only hope at this point. YH hold many interesting titles but they never invest enough to make anything above average
>>268299006They do it all the time
>>268299049Shuukura publisher is?
I'm gonna miss Kino's show
>thread is already at bump limit>still no one has made a stitch of Kyou's corpse
>>268299105Don't worry.Next season has real yuri shows and not just bait.
>>268299120I made one but I don't feel comfortable posting it knowing that people with masturbate to a dead Kyou (or make dead Kyou their phone wallpaper or something weird).
>>268299165Post it anyway. People aren't going to fap to it anyway; if anyone will use her as fap material it will be to >>268266108. /a/ isn't full of necrophiles.
At least Kyou didn't die a virgin
>>268299262she never had yuri sex with momoka.
Aren't these 2 a couple now? What kind of NTR is this?
>>268299286Haji pls
So how did she die? Traffic accident?
>>268299300>my sister died so I stole her girlfriendI like it.
>>268299099it's a LN. I don't think YH publish light novel
>>268299099A random magazine that has it as its only currently running yuri series.
>>268299509Its manga adaptation just started this month.
Don't post the stitch of Kyou's corpse here. Make it a new thread so all of /a/ can fa... mourn.
Why do these girls always have to dye their beautiful hair...
>>268299561I know, but the manga won't be adapted into an anime, it's the source material - the LN.
>thread is almost dead and still no stitch>>268299596>implying there will ever be a new Sasakoi thread anytime soonA dying thread is the most appropriate place to post it in anyway.
>>268299729Dark haired girls can't love dark haired girls.
>>268299509>>268299519>>268299754Yeah I was asking for the LN publisher. Like what anime did they do? Did they have good budget etc
>>268299849Looking at the amazone page, it's KADOKAWA.
>>268299769No one likes a nagger.
>>268300048But if this thread dies, where will the stitch be posted?
>>268300039We are in safe hands
I already set dead Kyou stitch as my phone wallpaper. She will be remembered, even if her anime is not.
Last reminder to check out D4DJ Groovy Mix for Sasakoi songs. We also have gay girls dating each other in that (they are main characters in ch3 & 4 of the main story). And bonus point: It's not by Bushiroad.
>>268300240Post pic or it didn't happen
>>268300240Funny, Shiho did the same, she made her gravestone her smarrphone wallpaper so she can feel better every better she looks at her phone
