It finally all comes to an end today, and so does this Mai drama arc.Seriously: why did P.A. Works make a girl introduced so late the focus of their show's finale, instead of properly building up to her?

Kanata deserved so much better.

It wasn't full on Glasslip, but this show sure felt boring and aimless. At least the Brazilian was cute.

>>271290830Hoping the next P.A. Works original will be graced with panservice: Charlotte and Mayopan (more liek MayoFUN with its funservice)
>the main character is introduce in the last 2 episodeswhy did PA works do this weirdo shit?
>>271285323That's a very sorry ass.
>>271291464Anna got the good ass after all
I just started watching episode 11. Anna is such a bitch.
>>271291854No
Every PA Works anime from now on will be yuri like this and Mayopan.
So the schedule permanently changed? The usual time is supposed to be 23:45 JST but it seems it's airing past midnight again this week, just like last week.
>>271291977Neither are yuri, just bait
>>271292188Mayopan is hard yuri.
>>271292188Both are real yuri.
These girls should have a threesome lesbian sex.
>>271292296Nah, even Jellyfish was more yuri and the romance went nowhere >>271292473Real nothingburgers
>P. A became "Yuribait bait flops: The Studio" Such a sad fate. Whatever happened to projects like Serious The Jeager?
>>271292585Jerryfish went nowhere too, when can we get a good original yuri show...
>>271291977>>271292601Don't worry, the next PA Works anime will be popular haremkino. Enough yuribait flops for now.
>>271292720Bring back Gekidol...
>>271292601Such projects are fairly gone for now.Kuromukuro s2 never
>>271291854She cares for her friends, it was pure instinct.>>271291167Anna's weirded out mad animators didn't animate her panservice kicks.
>>271292898There is a book
>>271292898Fuck, I completely forgot this studio made that one. Jesus, what went si fucking wrong with P. A?
>>271292898>Such projects are fairly gone for now.But not forgotten.
>>271292601Their action shows were never particularly well received, with the very poor reception of Fairy Gone being the nail in the coffin for them.
>>271292898>KuromukuroI blame the 3D team. They are not pleading hard enough to PA Works.
>>271293286I'm pretty sure they were still better received than these yuribait flops that fail at catching the attention of even the most diehard yurifags in Japan
>>271293017Nothing went wrongThey recently made AMW and just this season Mayonaka is pretty good.
Anna is the perfect example why gaijin characters should stay as comedy relief minor characters only. Her gimmick wore off fast and she became an annoying cunt
I will miss Kanata's cute voice.
>>271293046RAY DAWN
Start!
No OP, they will probably sing during the episode.
>>271293538Anna would have been more interesting as the MC. That would have forced them to flesh her out beyond her gimmick, and would have made for a more natural way of introducing the other characters as she gradually got to know them, as someone outside their friend circle with no knowledge of cheerleading.Bonus points if her behavior is the main source of conflict within the group, and we can see it stems from her anxieties as a foreigner with few connections about to lose the only place where she belongs, and we then slowly get to see her and the others grow to understand each other better.There's your main plot right there.
>>271293638BEE VEE LISKAR
Somehow... Mari-senpai returned.

>>271293989>>271293990I love this stupid meme so much.
Sad dog...
Kuroko saved the day
Cabbage flower
And then she got raped.
Nodoka should have been the MC
>>271293538>>271293843Not really, the problem with Anna is that she is written as a "girl boss" - an aggressive subtype of Mary Sue characters.
>>271294447Now you're just projecting your own annoyances about American media onto anime.Anna is written like the stereotypical loud comic relief foreigner, which falls flat in serious scenes where she needs understandable reasons for the way she acts.
Anna should just be Nodoka's wife.
>>271294534>Anna is written like the stereotypical loud comic relief foreignerExcept she is not written like stereotypical loud comic relief foreigner, hence the problem
>>271294623Anna should be Nodoka's cocksleeve.
>>271294634Name one scene where she doesn't act like that.
Suzuha left the pompoms to become an idol
>>271293401>yuribait flops that fail at catching the attention of even the most diehard yurifags in JapanEven Aquatope? But didn't /a/ love Aquatope?
>>271294745I guess parkour doesn't pay the bills... ;_;
I'm glad it's over. Probably the show with the worst cast of the season and some of the shittiest threads of the season as well. Thanks for nothing, PA Works.
This was the trick they tried to do.Mari catched both of them with one hand.
END
And if Mari isn't on screen everyone must ask Where is Mari?
>>271294845In the end, Pompoms were saved by the power of bullshit.
>>271294684She is a loud foreigner but not a stereotypical comic relief - she was never butt of the joke. The comics punched down on Nodoka, not on Anna.
>>271294745This is clearly yuri.
>>271292601PA works is one of the few studios left who still does a lot of originals and most originals are flops.
>>271294823The threads are only shitty when you post.
>>271294885Shion right's arm should've disappeared conspicuously behind Suzuha's back, with a single sweat drop on Suzuha's face.
>>271294885Boobs squeezing...
>>271294945The opposite, she's going to become a producer cumdump
See you guys next year in Maebashi Witches!
>>271294920The archetype doesn't dictate the foreigner must be the butt of the joke. Their bizarre behavior can also be used to embarrass the Japanese main characters.

>>271295337
>>271295337I wonder if they've already started being written by AI. Narenare certainly felt like it.

>>271295337Looks like we're in for a good time.
>>271295360Delusional Kaicuck.
>>271295739Is that the one about golf?Skipped.
>>271295789Yes. As you can see from the logo, golf is played with a pin and a ball with three holes.
>>271295360Ohana tops.
>>271295827That's American golf, right?
>>271295789There's a different golf show. This one is about bowling.
>>271295934Bowling would be better if the girls used golf clubs.
>>271295979Sword fights would be better if the girls used guns.
>>271296033That's not how it goes.The girls use swords to chop the barrels off the guys' guns.Don't change the tactic that won both world wars.
>>271295424I can certainly believe they will be easily better than this shitshow, which is baffling because tourism ads used to be PA Works' forte.
Am I the only person in the world that loves this? Easily my AotS.

>>271296333Trips of truth. AotS confirmed.
>>271296606really?
>>271296436I was like 3 episodes behind, at that point my opinion was just "it's meh".
>>271296616Why are they choking Nodoka?
>>271285323is it actually gay yet?
>>271296606https://x.com/narenare_anime/status/1837881290001207304Holy shit
>>271296333I like it. The only episodes I found boring were episode 10 and the record store episode.
>>271296660Liking cheerleaders was always gay.
>>271296660They've been gay since episode 1, just not explicitly.
>>271296660It's gay since episode 1.
>>271296690>the record store episode.That was the only good episode. Stretching that out to a full season might have made for a good story.
>>271296710>>271296746i've seen 0 girls kissing girls (on the lips) though???
onsen sex OVA..?
>>271296710>>271296746Now kiss.
>>271296660No. Go watch Anima Yell if you want actually gay cheerleaders.
>>271296765Record store arc had a fucking retarded resolution, but it was better than what came later. Except the focus episode for the yoga girl where they help another cheer team, that one was okay.
>>271296798That's a Patreon exclusive. You're donating to the cause, right, anon?
>>271296660Next episode!

Now that the dust has settled I think we all agree this is way better than MayoPan.
>>271297014Sunk.Cost.Fallacy.
>>271297030Both are good yuri.
>>271297030Now in reality, Nanare Hananare will join the ranks of Red Data Girl, Glasslip and Kamisama ni Natta Hi. It will be in good company.
This anon >>271294905 is right, Mari is unironically Poochie tier.
>>271297071Who would win, Anna or Hina?
>>271295337I hope none of them made money. Fucking hate shitty tourism ad show

>>271297201me
>>271297201No one considering this was an utter flop
Wish they actually show Kanata taking off her skirts
this was unironically hot
>>271297201Me and I will never stop watching anime like this.
>>271297356>>271297252Is this what you want?Is this why you're here?
I hope she has license long enough to ride with a passenger
>>271297353But Kanata is mad ugly, though.
WE TALKED FOR FIVE MINUTES!
>im off to page 10
????????????
>>271297415yesIs it me or is the captcha breaking?
>>271297068*yuribait, and only Mayopan was good
>>271297030dropped mayopan after episode 8
God this is so hilariously retarded. Fuck this show.
Do tell, what did Mari-chan do in episode 1?
why is the final episode over a random side character?
>>271286422>>271293567>>271297349She indeed deserved better. Kanata takes off her skirt but panservice isn't present. What were those blacks below her blouse, black shorts?
Friend of whomst've'd?
>>271297631She will be in the main cast for season 2.
Now that the dust has finally settled can we all agree this should have just been about fucking cheerleading?
WHO?
I feel bad for the cute dog.
>>271297631The more you try to understand this show the more braincells you fry.
>>271297719No.
Did Mari die on her way back to her home planet at least?
God damn this show has such a complicated plot and arcane characterization.What the fuck was PA Works thinking?
HOW?
>>271297792Watch the last episode, moron.
>>271297719Anima Yell was pretty mediocre but still miles better than this clusterfuck, so yes.
Finally, we arrive at the show's main message. What a ride it has been.
Oh you're making it upset.
>>271297810I did. It sucked.
>>271297858There was cheerleading in this anime?
Quick, before the yips kill you!
This episode feels like the ending of a manga that got randomly axed in the middle.
>>271297784>thinkingthey werent
How do you rate Nanare Hananare?
This was mentioned in episode 2 once. Remember?
Oh god this is so cute.I need the fluff since they killed the dog in the other show.
Cute ending.
>>2712979934/Nodoka
>>271298012And several times since then
I should not doubt kino works, mayonaka punch next
>>2712979934/10. Girls were cute and it had some good moments (mainly with Nodoka), but everything else was fucking terrible.
PLEASE STOP WITH THE DRAMA PLEASE STOPPA WORKS PLEASE
Unintentionally self-aware line.
So did the wheelchair girl start walking again?And was there an overabundance of melodrama?I don't care about yuri one way or the other and lack of pantsu in a cheerleading show is retarded but not a deal-breaker, but I left this after the first episode because I sensed nothing by girl drama in the future.
CUTE!FLUFF!IMAGINE!
Mayonaka Punch literally cannot beat this ending.
My favorite part was how the different writers tried to cram their favorite characters into the episodes they happened to be writing. Yuniko Ayana clearly liked Suzuha so she randomly added the idol subplot that wasn't mentioned since her introduction to this final episode making her feel more important than the other characters. But I guess there was no time or setup to give Shion anything or keep pretending there was something between the two.
Talking about fears, is this one of those meetings?
>>271298077They can't help themselves with the forced drama that comes out of nowhere. Thank god they won't touch any more episodes.
DEEP
>>271297784I'm pretty sure the writers always roll a dice for a character developments and plots, AMW just getting a good dice rolls
God dam this was even worse than Glasslip and Irozuku.
Last minute scare!I'm sure you really thought they were going to die this time!
>>271298254Irozuku was comfy depressioncore. Don't compare it to this RNG mess.
PA works should return to making stuff like NagiAsu and Shirobako again, it's the only type of drama they do competently.
You remember this, right?RIGHT?
>>271298253You need just look at their other original this season for a show with properly written plot and character development, it even had hints to its twists.
GAAAAAAAAAY
>>2712979937/10. Not boring like Glasslip and Nagi no Asukara.
>>271298413Of course, she mentioned it once in episode 3 when the two of them had the mini versions of themselves atop their heads. You do remember they had those once, right?
>>271298040>>271298492At least there were lots of Splits service in the Ending
>>271298462>Not boringanon, I...
>>271298413Disqualified as an idol after being arrested foe parkouring in Tokyo...
>>271298550He's gonna get turned into a hoe to farm those cabbages.
>>271298550
>>271298579It keeps you here for 12 weeks despite threatening to drop it since episode 1. It's definitely not boring.
>>271298617>Implying he's got anything else in his life
>spend 90% of the final episode on a literally who>only have time for an ending montage where each of the supposed main characters is shown for literally three secondsEven Metallic Rouge was less confused.
What was the purpose of this shot?I had to pause this scene just to find them.
>>271298617I stayed until the end to see if they threw a bone to yurifans, but not even that
>>271298666>Come visit Gunma, Satan! We have a nice train station!
>>271298649>projecting
Wait a sec... is this a subtle metaphor for something?
>>271298666To promote Takasaki Station, dumbass.
>>271298727But that's not very subtle.
Mayonaka: 8/10Sakuna: 7/10NareNare: 4/10
>>2712979933/10, worst PA works original in the last decade
>>271298795This but swap Mayonaka and NareNare
>>2712979935/10 and that's me being generous
>>271298799This girl steal scenes. I love Kuroko.
>>271298795That seems about right, but Sakuna got a bit boring in the second half. Might drop it to a 6.
>>271298825I was about to point out that Kamisama aired this decade, but on second thought, yeah.
Excuse me gravity?Her skirt must be falling down panservice beyond due.
>>271298948Fear... Fear is the cheer killer.
>>271294845Damn sempai is STRONK!
>>271295337Good, haremfags and isekaifags get few basically same shows each season, so having 1 CGDCT show each season too should be a norm.
>>271298795On the IGN scale then maybe, in reality none of those shows warrant more than a 6.
What was the point of the entire school cheer team side of the show? They didn't show the tournament, they didn't make a statement about competitive cheerleading vs supportive cheerleading, we don't even know if Kanata actually rejoined the school team or if the PomPoms minus Suzuha still continued their activity (why not since they're all still together for at least a couple more years?)...
Pissi Cuckitini.
>>271299249On the totally objective critics' scale, NareNare is a 2/10 at best.
>>271299297I don't know what that is, but I'm hard now.
>>271298903Yeah, Kamisama had a strong beginning, and the threads stayed fun even after it went to shit. Narenare only had Nodoka going for it, and she was only relevant in a couple of episodes. It's just sad.
>>271299430>not yuriIt's shit.
>>2712979934/10. Story feels it got chopped up and then reassembled.
>>2712979938.5/10 AotS
>>271299464literally nothing happened between them. biggest shitty yuribait imaginable, the worst thing in anime.
>>271299517Not even a good yuri pair.
>>271299529The best part is that they didn't even have a solo conversation after episode 6.
Was this ending a cop out?I wanna say yes but I also can't think how they could end it too.
Should've made the show about her.
>>271299581It was just as random as the rest of the show. There was no way to write a decent ending since they spent the rest of the show not building anything up.
>>271299581>I also can't think how they could end it too.They pressure Mari to take the same miracle leap Kanata made in ep1. She does, and she dies.
>people expecting some deep Evangelion plot for a SoL/drama
>>271299689I expected dumb cheer shit and I was still disappointed
>>271299689I'm pretty sure most of these people never gave the show a fair chance to begin with
>>271299689They least they could've done was make the drama natural and not just arbitrarily intrude on the SoL.But hey, at least this show was actually finished unlike your pic.
>>271299735Anyone still posting has stuck with it until episode 12.If that's not a fair chance, what is?
Is this yuri?
>>271299689I expected a Tari Tari ending.
I feel insulted. Mou Ippon was good.
>>271299881>height-gapNo.
>>271299881It would be if we knew who these characters were.
She's been manipulating everyone behind the scenes so she could take over the club.
>>271299993You didn't watch Railgun?
>>271299735I gave it the same chance I do every PA Works original. This show fumbled even the most basic aspects of storytelling. It couldn't even lay the groundwork to make me care about any of the characters and their "conflicts". It kept adding random bullshit up until the last episode and resolving it in the most anticlimactic and meaningless way possible. It's hot garbage, simply put.
>>271299950But that's the best kind of yuri.
>>271299790Already watched few shitty PA originals, adding more and posting like I do in the previous ones is great
>>271300029I don't remember Kuroko being molested by literal randos.
>>271299288>>271297925>>271292601>>271294947They have shown us nothing. Competitive cheerleading and the tournaments weren't shown. Maybe they originally wanted a show focused on cheering and cheerleaders with lots of action but after it was hit by the committee they mostly canned the plan to cheer for each episode, while leaving parts of the original storyline as season 2 bait if it's well received. Turns out that killing panservice kills interest in a cheerleader anime. All P A Works had to do was copy formula from their successful works. Keep it enjoyable from the start and leave the dumb drama for later.

>>271298022how nice of best grrrrl to finally reveal herself 12 episodes in.
>>271300280Moron.

>>271300380 Thanks for proving me right.

>>271300458>>simple anime about cheer leading>is not about cheerleading>/a/: why is this not about cheerleading
>>271300408Nodoka is the only character that was remotely relatable and with some development. She's the only thing I'll remember about this
Things you learned from anime.
>>271300491>This anime was very easy to understand.Explain it in five paragraphs or less. You have 10 minutes.
The only one who ever bothered to elaborate on his complaints was unironically Panserviceschizo. He's more legit than the majority of the whiners who are only here to seethe since week 1 due to the show not having a bland male self-insert.
>>271300472implying autistic daughters can't top
>>271300539Cabbage is, like... family and shit?And family tumbles down a mountain.
>>271300280Do you need references to earlier episodes or obvious foreshadowing for important characters for why many of the "random shit" you people kept complaining about wasn't random at all? Almost all the criticism I've read here that wasn't just the vaguest formulation of "bad writing" and "throw shit at the wall and see what sticks" type of post read like they were based on expectations for a different show. None of this show was hard to follow.
>>271300582>refuse to elaborate anon's request

>Grandma didn't say "Itarash-"Staff can't even commit to their own gags.
>>271300549Girl can't fly anymore due to trauma. Girl gets her ability back through cheer.
>>271300683Except she got her ability back at the end of episode 1, because of... reasons.And then she lost it again, maybe. Who knows?
>muh cabbages
>>271300539I thought it was pretty funny how buchou was nodding wisely during that whole chibi speech. I kind of wish the show leaned on that sort of humor more.
Like I said in an earlier thread, girls were fine (cute, different enough in design and personality), the setting was there (cheer/sports/school/menheradramaovernothing) but the overall plot was severely lacking. Most of the drama wasn't really earned and too quickly resolved.Personally I wanted more focus on the yips thing and wheelchair girl being a cunt and everyone being jealous of eachother.
>>271300722>she got her ability back at the end of episode 1That was an accident, not a deliberate flying.
>>271299484>>271299581Did they really make the wheelchair girl dress up in the outfit? That seems cruel.
>>271300857She wants to be wearing that when the girls use and abuse her afterwards.
>>271300857It's Kanata's fetish.
>>2712979935/10, at least visuals were okay.
>>271300907why would kanata want her girlfriend to wear a cheering outfit?
>>271300932Do you genuinely believe that ~45% of all anime ever made was worse than this show?
And then I clapped when Megumi finished her rehabilitation offscreen.
>>271300654It's bad writing to have the climax of the show be about a character the audience even knew about for 90% of the show's runtime prior to it, or sweep the conflicts between the main girls under the rug, depriving them of any character growth. You could have had any expectation about the show and the show would have failed to meet them because it never knew what theme or storyline it wanted to commit.
Can we talk about how beautiful splits and high kicks look? Why is that?
You're a fucking cabbage.
>>271294745the most random last-minute revelation. What was the point?
>>271295019P.A. works? You already know we will be watching.
>>271301003Well, I made it through this show and dropped more than half of the summet season so yes.There's always some generic lnslop with low effort production.Then there's always some netflix filler westaboo slop nowadays.It's a long way from this to bottom.As far as PA shows go this one is the worst in a while, maybe worst ever.
>>271301215Yuri bait?
>>271301215No, the next PA Works show is >>271292751
>>271297498Why didn't she just teleport there?
so they didn't even deliver the yuri either?glad I didn't waste with time with this
I'm in charge of this thread now.Post Suzuha.

>>271301050>sweep the conflicts between the main girls under the rugThey dealt with these throughout the show. Which conflicts were left?
Necessary shot.
>>271293989>>271293990Bravo PA Works, this scene made me laugh.>>271295019I'll be in those threads.
>>271300795>>271300857>>271297993In the scale of PA Works made shows, 2/10 I honestly can't think of worse. This is their worst, the visuals were puke inducing, the music sucked. Randomness of the story shouldn't be a bad thing but the plot plain sucked.The crippled was one of the more interesting girls girl for sure. Being a cripple she's forbidden from wearing tight spats (I know this because I cared for girls who had cheering stunt accidents, they need the blood flow particularly in their legs, part of walking rehab) as seen from the thighservice while the rest of the cast for some reason were wearing those disgusting dark shorts in the dismay of panservice hopefuls. Her issue was resolved in a flash with nothing to bear I can say the same to all their arcs. Shallow and copped out.Overall not enough cheering.
>>271300843>That was an accidental superpower>This is serius showlolkekw
>>271301649They did it in a way that rendered the drama pointless. Take Anna's arc for example. In the end it was her connections with the big shots that saved the record store, the cheering was a window dressing, her relationship with Nodoka didn't matter, they didn't get any closer. I could go on with Suzuha and Shion who were basically written out of the story after the onsen episode, or Megumi's drama being half-assedly dealt with in one episode. It feels random because the story arcs come and go with harly any build-up and follow-up to them. People saying this was written by an AI might be onto something.
>>271301924They put a girl with a supposedly serious condition that makes her unable to do stunts next to a superhuman midget who can parkour like Spiderman and never be in danger. The show having no idea what tone to go for should've been clear from episode 1.
The anime suffered from how disconnected and different in tone each arc was, the writers needed to be reigned in by someone with a clear unified vision. Even most manga serializations seem to have more thought put into their overarching story structures.>>271301488Her and Kuroko made me wish Kanata's school was more prominent.
>>271301972May the strongest Pom win.
>>271301996The parkour shit is honestly the worst offender. You could have removed it and nothing would've changed
>>271302060They could've made the show about ex-cheerleaders learning parkour and it would've been better for it.
https://youtu.be/PYGYZxFn3Gg?si=5k2pmmqMjd4zKKAY&t=272Japanese cheerleaders love
>>271302120She's not gonna make it as an idol without smiling.
>>271301215No, Sunrise. But it advertises the same nip prefecture.
>>271302173>No, Sunrise.Sunrise hasn't been good since
>>271302250Damn, I just checked their catalog and mostly saw a bunch of trashy Love Live, Code Geass and Gundam offshosts. They haven't made a good original show since the original fucking Code Geass.
>>271301916>worst PA Works showGlasslip was worse. Irozuku was worse. Aquatope season 2 was worse.
Did they actually have a whole scene in Episode 3 where Suzuha talked about wanting to be an idol, or did it only come up in a couple of lines, at most, if anybody remembers? I'm pretty sure the majority of that episode was focused on Suzuha's inner monologue and how she was actually a fan of Shion's.
>worst pa works animego watch RDG
>>271302369>Aquatope Season 2This is an insane claim. Even disregarding how much I like Aquatope on the whole subjectively, objectively the second half is absolutely better than Narenare because it actually primarily stuck to focusing on 2 major characters even if it isn't a totally equal amount.
>autistic idolhmm
All this divisiveness about which PA show was the most boring is goes to show how many dull pointless shows they shit out. It's like for every Akiba Maids we need 19 yuribait borefests.
>episode 12>hani-ni-nareyou now remember this OPhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v-WcMQbXbKYHANA NI NATTEEEEEEEEEEE

>>271302576better than this, but still mediocre
>last episode is best episodepretty rare event
>>271302613At least Catcat is getting her deserved S2.
>literally 1 frame apart>hana can magically manifest glasses out of the fucking void apparently
>>271302369It's not fair to compare Irozuku and Aquatope to this. They had other issues stemming from PA Works stretching the core premise thin, but they never deviated from their central themes and the steady development of their characters.
>>271302623The shorter ones always top.
>>271302651Out of morbid curiosity, what are your favorite anime?
she's so smug
IT'S HER TIME

>>271302820 NTA but based beyond belief.
>>27128532310/10AOTY
all it took was 2 dykes on bikes cycling a gorillion miles across japan to make her honest
I can't believe Megumi never got un-crippled.
Aquatope was leagues above this show. I'll have to rewatch it to wash away this bad aftertaste.
very fluffy in the mornings
>>271303058She's fine in the pic they shared on twitter which is supposed to be half a year later >>271295136
>>271285323>Seriously: why did P.A. Works make a girl introduced so late the focus of their show's finale, instead of properly building up to her?is is weirdwhy wouldn't they make the megumi drama the climax?
>>271295136cute girlfriends
>>271303146Megumi and Mari could've been consolidated into the same characters. She gets crippled at the tournament instead of Mari getting yips like Kanata, and she writes the nasty comment. Bam, two subpar pieces of drama merged into a likely still subpar one.
>me, after watching this entire anime
finally some REAL yuri
>>271303237*the same character
>>271303237>She gets crippled at the tournament instead of Marithis was also weirdlike if you're going to have a crippled character why not write it in a way that she got hurt during cheer instead of generic japanese disease? Then the ptsd and trauma for both Kanata and Megumi would be more impactful.
>>271303334I wouldn't put it past them that they had a directive from the production committee not to directly show cheerleading as a potentially physically dangerous activity.
>>271302745>>271302785>>271302810>insufferable cunt>Yuu SerizawaMany such cases.
woah

This character is literally me.
>>271303598Can she keep doing just Shion though?
>>271303647yes
>>271303669Doesn't even need to bend over for milkies.

>hops out the train>INSTANTLY goes monkey mode
could nodoka help you get your life together?
people fear when they are afraid
ehit was alright enough i guessnot the worst pa works show i've seen, but still far from the best
So what was the point of this show? Even the yuribait went down the drain.
>>271303990Visit Gunma, we have steep slopes, a hot spring and uuuuuh
>>271296333It was okay, didn't love it but also didn't hate it. Definitely has been one of the most underrated releases of the season, I think a lot of people just refused to give it a chance. I ended up enjoying it more than half of the other stuff I watched.
>>271303952Maybe that fat pig should fix her life first.Then her diet.
>>271303952Oh no!Somebody say something!
this has been without any doubt the worse pa show from recent years
>>271304394That's when the gangbang begins. No guarantess on her life.
>>271303093I love fluffy hair on anime girls.
I don't hate it and it had some good parts but it was definitely one of the weakest PA anime. It unironically felt AI written.
>>271303921If Tokyoites want to survive, they HAVE to accept cultural enrichment from Gunma.
They should have taken just one pair of girls and make the whole story about them. Anna's record store, Megumi's disease and rehabilitation, Shion overcoming her autism, etc. The recipes for a good story were there, but shoving them and duct tapping them together in one show was clearly not a good idea.
What does this mudra mean?
>>2712979936/10
>>271304568>ShionSuzuha* oops
>>271304587Fuck You no Jutsu
>>271304587Vagina
>>271304654Whoa, let's not start with advanced techniques.
>>271296333Far from AoTS for me. Up until this episode it was alright, had its ups and downs and some decent emotional moments, but this episode really cements it as being mediocre/subpar for me with the last-minute Suzuhua thing.
>>271296333I think it was ok, not good or bad, just ok. I liked all the PomPoms, but I liked Anna and Nodoka the most. I'm going to miss this hot-headed Brazilian and her yoga-addicted girlfriend.
this anime definitely feels like it was originally structured to be 2 cours but shit happened and they had to shrink it down to 12 eps
The angry twintails goblin was the best girl. Fucking unstoppable force.
This was really one of the worst shows of the season. Only better than Tasuketsu and Naze Boku no Sekai.
>>271304928Nodoka convinced me to take up yoga again, so at least something good came out of this shitshow.
>>271304928I would have liked them as a pair if their relationship was developed beyond Nodoka being Anna's tardwrangler, but it was the weakest out of the three by far.
>>271305023don't we say that about every original these days. GWitch was supposed to be 50 episodes
So... when does Nodoka fuck every girl in the school?
>>271305043Isekai Shikkaku and Nokotan were arguably worse too
>>271305043Geez, it ended up the only seasonal show I was watching, dropped everything else as they hooked me even less. What did I miss then?
>>271305298Watch more originals.Even just this year, Bang Bravern, Meiji Gekken, Girls Band Cry and Mayonaka Punch made the most of their single cour.
>>271305330>Isekai ShikkakuThat had one of the best anime episodes I've seen in years. Really the only annoying aspect about it is the shota.
>>271305333nta but tell me what you dropped and I'll tell you which was a mistake
>>271305333>What did I miss then?MonogatariShoushimin SeriesMayonaka PunchNige Jouzu no WakagimiKarasu wa Aruji wo ErabanaiAnd that's just what I ended up liking.
>>271305403I guess it's true the bad experiences are remembered better than the good. I mean, I find it funny and all, but why is Glasslip of all shows the defacto "boring and useless plot show"? I mean, I managed to sit through it as well and it was by all means awful, but it's somewhat funny that show is still mentioned and compared to the new shows. Also Wonder Egg is now the golden standard for "trainwrecks in motion insert writer change".>>271305474Well. Everything aside Nanare ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
PA Works chads.What's the tourism-slop next season?
>>271305563>slopYou ain't no chad of mine.
>>271305333Mahoaku, Mayopan, Giji Harem, Makeine, Elusive Samurai, Oshi no Ko, Shoushimin, Nier, Dungeon People. Even the vtuber show was surprisingly entertaining.Overall a solid season, the best of this year even, seeing how the next one is shaping up to be horrible.
>>271305422I'll agree that one episode was good, but overall the series blew. The gimmick got old almost instantly, the worldbuilding was awful and the stakes were nonexistent, only the cute cat girl kept me watching. PomPoms was better.
>>271305333Alya Nige Jouzu no WakagimiOshi no Ko 2
>>271305631>the best of this year evenYou talk as if you didn't watch anything this Spring.>the next one is shaping up to be horrible.At least we can agree on that much.
>>271305549>but why is Glasslip of all shows the defacto "boring and useless plot show"?Because it was also a PA Works show. It became especially infamous for coming out in the gap between NagiAsu and Shirobako, two of the most popular and beloved productions from the studio, so people started to use it as a measuring stick of sorts for what goes wrong with their originals.
>>271305805Spring was only good if you kept up with the many sequels that aired. New shows were pretty lacking.
>>271305899Girls Band Cry, Yatagarasu and Shuumatsu Train were fun.
>>271303058Good, the best thing about this anime was encouraging my cripple fetish.
>>271305422can I watch the episode on is own or do I need context?
>>271305969The show is relatively episodic so sure, you need to watch at least the first one at least.
>>271305948>GBCthe ending ruined everything
>>271306038What ending? The sequel tease?
>>271306024alright, downloading it righ now
>>271306078The lack of yuri.
Just finished the episode, I rate the wasted potential/10. The girls by herselves are good, it had great visuals, the premise and theme was interesting, and the first episode, albeit a bit messy, did a decent job on setting up everything. However, everything else didn't manage to take advantage of any of the great points the show had going for it. What a pain, but it is what it is.
>>271306115S2 will be amazing since they don't need to establish the characters. Just pure SoL/yuri antics.
The show was fine, but at least these horrible threads will finally be over and done with
>>271306164>S2lollmao even
>>271306242They'll find some other show to complain about with the same shit week after week. It's all they know.
