>>275040113May the strongest feline win.
>>275040308I don't get the hate. Is this the newfag TECHNOBOYS PULCRAFT GREEN-FUND that everyone just dislikes because it's digital music?
Would catcat eat pussy if asked?
>>275040857>would
>>275040831It's because every Yoasobi song sounds the same.To be fair, this melody at least sounds like it was composed by a different person.
>>275040393giwtwm
>>275039943Which finger she uses for muffin touching?
Off with his head.
>>275040229Whoever can fuck her and let her do her own thing after, also a certain CLOWN will pretty much force her to like girls, at least for a time
Xiaolan is a cutie pie.
>>275040857I mean, she's done it before
>>275041048All, she circles the clit while itching the ditch
>>275040857She'll do it to learn the taste, unless you're a ninja/clown/nurse/catholic nun/bird breeder/assasin/poisoner/food taster, then just ask her politely and she'll eat you out every time you need her to come and patch you up in your bed

>>275043875The duller colors made me wonder if I had downloaded a fucked-up encode at first, but the rest of the ep was normal.
>this was printed with high quality metal plates, this smut is so pristine i wanted to show it to everyonesharing is caring, maomao is so kind
>>275044221kek
>>275043966Is it still insurrection if the emperor has indicated his desire to make it happen but also his total incompetence at producing the desired outcome?
>>275043734A squirter
>>275043966emperor wants to up literacy so no
>come on maomao you can't go showing virgins the super hyper ultra mega dick annihilation technique on page 20, that's far to advanced for beginners kek
>>275039943I think Xiaolan is underrated and needs more screen time. Her voice is so cute.
>>275044452>Uhhhmmm AAAAAKSHUALLLYYYYY The Emperor said that would be educational for most girls in the palace and...
>>275040078
>>275044452Is Maomao's sexual knowledge just academic, like research and stories from her whore sisters? Does she have any practical experience?
>>275044536>misaki kunothe fucking CUTEST seiyuu
>>275044604>Does she have any practical experience?her onee-sans thoroughly molested her in the whorehouse and drilled their techniques into heri am not joking, she KNOWS how to pleasure men

>big sis maomao teaching xiaolan to read and writethis is so fucking cute

>a caravan is comingdesert beauties!?
>>275045189Cant wait to see them ramble confusedly in their language to Maomao about seeing Princess Jinshi
>>275044536They need to stop typecasting her as screaming gremlins and let her do more cute, normal girl voices.
>>275044970Wakarimao...
>>275045365TN: Xiaolan means a small flat country full of pedoflowers
>>275045304Will they speak Russian?
Fuck it, it's only been 1 episode, but Apothecary Diaries is AotS and already a contender for AOTY
>>275044694>>275044739Yeah, this was really cute Too bad that from what I understood the girls disappears later in the LN.
>>275045941it's just about tied, or one place higher than akuyaku reijou ojisan.
>>275045967she has to return to her family and whore herself for food
>>275044970I will not apologize.
>>275044927No Kusuriya, you will not convince to have children! No matter how cute they are!
>>275045967Eh, basically Maomao has a new girl group, but here in the West they're pretty hated. But it also permits Chue(2nd best girl in the series) existence [/spoiler)
>>275046004Do you mean some old bastard gets this cutie as his playtoy? Based,
>>275046078 Yeah, I hear a lot about her on /a/, also the lesbian who Jinshi hires immediatly as soon as he discovers it.Although I have no idea of their personalities and roles, I'll discover it when I'll read it
>>275044536i'm going to move to medieval china and have sex with her in real life
>>275039943filling Maomao with my poison
>>275046158There is also a weird ass love polygon with them
>>275044067YES
>>275044966So... to refresh my memory... Bug-girl is also that ice-cold stare consort, right?
>>275046398What the hell am I looking at?>farming loves the girlI'll keep the surprise for whatever that is for later.
>>275045285Europeans, they are blue eyed blonde bitches
I can't self insert as Jinshi. I'm not a tall beautiful Chinaman with long hair. This show suxks
>>275046661Be honest, it's because your frog isn't as big as Jinshi's
>>275043892There is no one stupid enough - she has the backing not only those two which is enough but even top 2 concubines favor.
>>275043892Dont piss Lakan or your entire family will be fuckedT. Emperor
>>275046398How many women are into Maodad?
>>275046876That and she's not really a threat or competition to any of the concubines or other staff so killing her wouldn't make sense.
>>275043892Why, even having the ability to, would even try to do it? She is basically no one. She is at best, an steemed "advisor" in some fields. She has no involvement in politics nor have any interest on them. At best they would try to have influence onher.
>>275044536agreedshe a cutie

kot?
Even if you knew spoken Chinese, how long would it take you to learn to read and write? Is it years or do you only need to know a couple of characters?
>>275044091Hoo boy, there are from all directions.
>>275047323Make sure to get a daki of Jinshi to assert dominance over women if they get jelly
>>275040078honestly, that first frame is a fantastic image on its own.
>>275040113Cat vs Kot
>>275041840>it's a Lupus episode
>>275045285Wonder if there are blonde gaijins in this universe.
>>275047321It was nearly working for me, so maybe yes
>>275047571Gato gata chuu chuu dokumusu
>>275045189Why can't white women be real?
>>275047604Someone has to be the villain.
>>275047680You don't want white women. You want hapas.
Maomao is... a smut dealer??
>>275041493A certain sparrow, you'll meet her once we get to LN09, long story short is the best girl in the whole series
>>275046078>spoilerFuck right off, cicada fucker is gud but Chue completely outpaces her even in the whore department, like she was ready to get gangbanged so maomao isnt hurt by some bandits
>>275044604Implied she got banged by her sisters, at least kissed to orgasm, thats why she really doesn't care about sex, already got her share
>how rare a kitten>I just boiled some water!NNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOODON'T DO IT CHYNA DON'T DO IT
>>275047680Those ain't white, son, they're aryan Arabs, close to the tartars also they're not!Japanese in their beliefs, fucking weird, if you want white you need to go where Maomao's dad went to train mother fucking not!brits saw a not!chinaman and tried to cook him lmao
Fuck Maomao
>>275048370bad frogman, at least bring some exotic poisons first.
>>275043892And piss off AUTISMUBERMENCH who nearly shank'd the Emprah? Fuck that, the fucking emperor knows to not to fuck with the maniac, Jinshi also is a psycho and the more time passes on the series the more everyone knows Maomao is his girl, every last guard shots themselves when she pass, but still long ways to that also she's kidnapped and got two assassination attempts later on
>>275048370Calm down Jinshi or maybe you're Chue trying to make Jinshi breed Maomao?
>>275044970
>>275044303Calm down... oh yeah, it is you lmaomao
>>275048784lol
>>275045263FYI, Maomao the cat is 毛毛, meaning "hair hair".
>>275048370>Fuck Maomaoa cat is fine too
>>275045748Arabian, they're tartars, the ruskies are fucking bears in the maomaoverse
>>275046621Nope, the euros show up WAY later, just to fuck shit up monumentally, also Maomao's adoptive dad has reason to be scared of these fuckers
>>275046972That's Lahan's brother brother, called Lahan, he's not as important as Lahan's brother but he's good with the ladies
>>275049169So does this have fantasy British Empire or something? Do we even know what period exactly it's supposed to mimic?
>>275048349
>>275040229Grand Apothecary Putress.
>>275049210British/Spanish merged bullshit, they're like the apex predator colonizers, also they got red hair rather than blonde, that symbolizes Shaoh aka the arabs
>>275049169i mean those weird western barbarians outteched china by when maomao would live. anyone would be scared.see the siege of albazin (there's an approachable video on it).
>>275043966Nah. China was weird about this stuff. As long as she teaches proper confucian values it should be fine.
What country would maomao play as if she played EU4?
>>275043734For boning vaginally the night before she shaves so that she has a good bit of pubic stubble.
>>275043966>a culture hellbent on scholarship and testing exams>tries to find the best advisers>killing people that can't readWut? too much commie history for you.
>>275049354She would only play mods that make the game even more complicated and then play Spain/Ottoman because she is still a woman.
>>275043966They're not living in the Han dynasty, so no.
>>275043734Teasing and bullying.
>>275043966The emprah tried hard to teach everyone to read, he sucks at it tho
>>275045224Cats are already above a majority of peasants.
>>275048966Just when I thought my dekinai might be surmountable, China appeared and spit out TWO (2) syllables.
glad to see the real MaoMao finally makes an appearance.
>>275040273And feet
>>275049526anzuruna anon, it's a pseudo chinese reading. not everything features in the jouyou.
>>275049399>complicated>EU4Huh?
>>275049639>mods that make the game more complicatedlern2reed
>>275039943Good episode, but the OP and ED were kinda weak.
>>275039943Freckles are already disgusting in real life. They look even more hideous in anime.

>>275051023Truth.“Anime characters look white.” only applies until you see actual white characters next to them and you suddenly see the difference.
>>275046313There's two Maomaos now.
>>275051023Maomao is freckle-coded.
>>275050298maomao doesn't have frecklesshe paints them on to look uglier to avoid being raped by bandits
>>275051320No she's freckle-coated.
>>275050298Why are you commenting about an anime series you don't even watch?
>>275051440I wish her freckles were real...
>>275051462I go into random threads to share my knowledge
>>275051524Here's some knowledge in exchange: her freckles are fake. She paints them on to avoid male attention.
>>275051537well she caught a fag on this board.
Been reading both manga and started on the LNs the other day. Hopefully this adaption will do ok.Animation in the OP is great. The OP song feel familiar.I forget where we're at in the story. Guessing those were the sex books.Cute cat is cute. Forgot about the twins.ED must be from Jinshi's perspective. Not really much of a jam.
>>275050298Shut up homosexual.
>>275050350I think your post is retard-coded
OP is really good. I still think the first OP was the best, but this one is nice, and I don't think I'll be skipping it.
So what's the appeal of an episode that's just about spreading books around and taking care of a stray cat with no mystery nor rapechad?
Maomao's lead underwear for refining uranium...
>>275052153only SoLchads can appreciate such episodes

how can anyone seriously not like this show
>>275052939There're a lot of triggered trolls spamming against this anime because the serie was written by a woman. I mean, literally it's mostly because of that...
cute alcoholic chinese cat
>>275053044I actually thought she was making whiskey cause I forgot pure alcohol is an effective sterilizing agent.
>>275052939You just had a boring episode without mysteries or rapechad.Also, I hate it because the rapechad is awfully missed potential and the mysteries aren't that good.
>>275053320just go watch disgusting BL or something and leave us alone then

>>275052242>>275052303>>275053463>>275054335The wellspring of knowledge allows me to identify that all of you are virgins from these opinions alone.
>>275054623Wow you spotted virgins on /a/, next go look in the mirror to find a dumb, drooling faggot.
>>275054623getting fucked in the butt doesn't count as losing your virginity
Jinshi is literally me(If he was a loser NEET)
>>275054119>Watch Ubel Blatt>censored and sanitized garbageno thanks
>no censorship>because there is nothing to censor
>>275054623Hello fellow Gosick watcher.Did you too find it funny how this show was the second time Aoi Yuuki described how to make a blue rose?
>Can't let the emperor become a degeneratesmart man
>>275054977smug pepe Jinshi
>>275055192Wait until 10 seconds later in the episode before making that post lel
>>275055233what do you mean? he emphatically refused leaving them uncensored and took them all away. (apparently against the emperor's wishes) Again, a smart man.
>>275055233But the emperor approved light novels, not porn
>>275052153take your hand off your clam for one second, foid
>>275055191you think that fag would be interested in CVs? it's the solchads who even remember anything beyond plot, directors, animators and the original writer.
>Overdesigned and animated openingSo which volumes will be covered this season?
>>275055306
>>275053663>hundreds of hours in sex training>all used on the final boss of all virginsIt ain't fair man
>>275053897Will Lahan's brother ever stop being the butt of all jokes? The epilogue in the last (translated) LN was just cruel
>>275054160He almost got raped, cooked and tortured most likely not in that order
>>275055409>(apparently against the emperor's wishes) Again, a smart man.
>>275055502
>>275054119>Ubel BlattOK that's just bait lmao, I thought it was edgy even in school
>>275055518Point is you don't stop the emperor from being a degen when he's the biggest degen in the capital to start with
>>275041065Mao Mao is the chinese version of a jew. I think jews are also often pharmacists.
>>275049273isn't red hair the dutch
>>275054377At that point just grab your(thr emprah's) ultra nympho assassin, but Emprah doesn't care he just wants to bend his tomboy over and be done with it
>>275055192>>Can't let the emperor become a degenerate>becomeKeep watching
>>275055402Most likely up to femboy princess Jinshi
>>275055554just because he's the biggest degen already doesn't mean he can't become more of a degen, far far more, and ruin the country because of it. It's happened many times in chinese history, and I'm sure they all know of it.
>>275055636he's using unconfucian, taoist thought in that picrel. don't show the mikado what would make him even more of a degen, for the sake of the whole court. laozi said, to not stir people's ambitions, don't show them treasure.
>making someone literate in Chinamuch easier to teach someone 26 signs than thousands of signs
>>275055574 they've got Tercios and what looks like British musketeers
>>275055703or the hangul. so i hear.
>Who are those white girls in the caravanI was thinking last season that Gyokuyou, with her red hair and green eyes and coming from the western province was a !Tocharian, a european steppe-people
Daily Reminder: They're not in China
>>275055790sure thing chairman mao(mao)
>>275055782japanese anime logic: hapas take the hair and eye color of their non-asian parent
>>275055409Seriously why the Emperor just doesn't ask pic rel to teach him ABSOLUTELY everything? Maybe he isn't into experienced girls, we know he knows who she is, he's the one that assigned the clown to catcat
>>275055790They still yse the chinese script.
>>275055840She's Arab + "beyond the west" tho
>>275055851HMMMMM
>>275055881I was talking about her daughter.
>The World-Island, but with the Heartland removedthis world would be extremely different. No massive mongol or hun steppe-nomad invasions, and there probably would have been an empire in the past that ruled almost the entirety of eurasia.
>>275055888I don't remember everything from the first season. He is Maomao's father, correct?
>>275055904Well technically the Emperor is a bit Arab, and very little Linese, but that already was explained in the manga, with all the thinning of blood and all that jazz
Can someone give me a QRD on the state of the court since last season?I thought Maomao had been transferred to work in a higher administrative postition? Was she retransfered to the jade pavillion due to the baby? The emporer wants her KNOWLEDGE to make sure she grows up healthy?I vaguely recall last season's events, but there were so many characters to keep track of and I've watched many animes since thenI cant even remember the names who the four main consorts are. One was the one who just had the kid, whom Maomao's closest with, and the another is the girl that was allergic to bees, but I don't remember the other two
>>275055963yes
>>275055963Ye and that anon seem to >implyThat he's the one that contracted the clown to protect maomao... and also to almost eat her out but that is never brought up and catcat really doesn't mind if it's Chue
>>275056022>some anon refers to Chue as a clownRude!
>>275055982The other two are the Emperors hairy(canon) daughteru and his tomboy gf, then replaced by some Chinese fuck doll and her army of clones
>>275056070I wanna fuck the sparrow while she wears her harem outfit NO WAY THEY'LL HAVE THE BALLS TO ANIMATE THAT
>>275055966>the Emperor is a bit Arab, and very little Linese, but that already was explained in the manga, with all the thinning of blood and all that jazzThat reminds me of what happened to tje ottoman nobility. They fucked circassian pussy so much that they became circassians themselves.Some Albanian guy also became ruler over Egypt. Neither he nor his descendants married albanians again. Instead the last king of Egypt was something like 10/16th circassian, a bit of french, a bit of turkish and only 1/16th albanian. He was the only one in his lineage who married an actual egyptian woman making his son half-egyptian but he was overthrown. I think his son ruled for a year or so as a toddler.
>>275056208>his son ruled for a year or so as a toddler.Skill issue, thankfully the Linese emperor had his grandma send a rape squad to anyone that even looked at him wrong
>>275056208The ottomans also had a brief period where they were almost ruled by women because of the huge influence that the mothers of sultans or concunines had:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sultanate_of_WomenTheir court was just as insane as the chinese court, the difference being it was islamic.
>>275056346They also both heavily relied on eunuchs.
>>275056383>heavily reliedHeavily railed eunuchs*
>>275043734Miss Chue's best friend! with benefits
>>275056208There doesn't seem to be any reference to Buddhism or Islam religions in the serie...India, Tibet and most ME doesn't exists or isn't relevant.
>>275056022Chue is not the one who picked out the clown-like clothes in this pic though
>>275055191>>275055401Truth. I had no idea Māomāo and Victorique had the same voice actor and I really don't care.That's what makes a for a good actor, being unrecognizable. I had no idea that Executor and Dr. Mccoy were the same actor either and their faces are visible. Or when you watch Orphan Black where one actor plays like 10 different roles, often on screen at the same time, and they're actually clones, so the point is that they have the same face but the mannerisms are so different that the mind is actually tricked into believing they're different people, that's quite impressive. It does not in any way feel like one actor playing multiple roles.
>>275056208I'm still a little upset that the R18 otome game taking place there got cancelled
>>275056496>autistic dad turns out to be best boy all along
>>275056496>implying that pic rel is bad
>>275056795That reminds me of something. One of the villains in Vanadis was a red haired sultan looking guy who is the younger brother of the king of their arab looking kingdom. The younger brother had a bunch of dark haired swarthy arab looking men in his army and did slave raidsm In a lot of the paintings of ottoman sultans many of them had blond or red hair. One of them is even called Selim the Blond. For most of the 16th century until the early 19th century the mothers of most of the ottoman sultans were european slaves. Then it was mostly slaves from the Caucasus region (Georgia, Abkhazia, Circassia).

>>275057274>>275056795i seriously hope you anons watched altair.
>>275057394Is it orientalist kino? Islam isn't mentioned?
>>275057452islam? ... not really? it's a realpolitik focused coming of age story. it has a lot of ethnicities from not!HRE to not!italians to not!chinese envoys
>female protagonist No thanks.
>>275055955>>275055955>and there probably would have been an empire in the past that ruled almost the entirety of eurasia.The Mongols did, in fact, notify almost 80% of Eurasia.As a result, the entire giant empire soon fell into division and civil war because of overly corrupt and brutal rule.The largest of these, the Yuan Empire, lasted only 97 years.
>>275057274>Selim the BlondGuess what the name of the blond prince guy in the game was
>>275057641sure enough there's a selim in altair. he has chestnut hair though.
>>275057641>Each protagonist has two eligible bachelors:In Eli's route, the player can pursue Aslan or Dietrich; in Alexia's route, Selīm or Faruk.
>>275057540>islamChina's contact with the Arab world predates even the creation of Islam.As early as 60 B.C., the Han Empire began to establish its rule in Arab countries.Many small Arab states chose to surrender and became territories of the Han Empire.For the Chinese at the time, Arabia was the West, hence the name "西域xiyu" Western region.Then the Western Han Dynasty collapsed and began the Eastern Han Dynasty, which led to the restarting of the independence of the Arab countries.
>>275050985He's just a little baked.
>>275057773>Arab countries>Altai, Tarim basin, etc (nomad iranian/tocharian)No.
>>275057773Your map doesn't show Arabia.Central Asia was inhabited by iranic peoples back then and then later by turkic peoples. Arabs never settled there. They conquered the territory during their islamic conquests but they never settled there in masses.Before the islamic expansion they only lived on the arab peninsula and in some parts of modern Syria and Iraq.
>>275057819>iranianBoth the Roman and Han empires expanded their territories to the limit, coming close to entering each other's lands.As a result they both gave up.It wasn't until the Mongols came later that the West became aware of the Orient.
>>275057874>turkicThe Turkic peoples actually began to live on the Mongolian steppes of today, and it took the Chinese "Emperor Han Wu Di" decades of hard work to drive them out of the country and into the West, after they had exhausted the wealth of the entire nation.The present-day Turks are in fact the descendants of the Turkic peoples. But their blood is not pure, because they have mixed with Arabs and Whites for thousands of years.The people of Xinjiang in China now have much purer Turkic blood.
>>275056795Darn, that art looks nice and the girl looks cute. Sad to see it didn't make it.
how do historical anime do it? even with all the horny retardation, the threads still manage to support a high volume of history infodumps and autistic map posting.
>>275056496Someone hired Chue to take care of Maomao, most likely the Emprah himself, alternatively Maomao's dad, but Chue is from the Mi clan, the imperial assassin family, meaning the Emprah is the most likely candidate to hire her
>>275057888They knew of each other through >OrientThis was originally the term for the Middle East. Look up the term orientalism.>It wasn't until the Mongols came later that the West became aware of the Orient.They knew about each other due to the Silk Road.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4XdPodNwSGUhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCSZQj8yvD4https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJP1TFJ9BQI
>>275057888No.Romans explored up to the Black Sea and Han explored the eastern side of the Caspian Sea. But as they did it in expeditions (and to capture horses) rather than real state control of those far away and useless territories. They had contact though and knew about each other as the Silk road was already a thing by the 0 AD. But mostly irrelevant envoys and indirect exchange of goods. Very few people and goods could travel through the north (nomads territories) but any military expedition or similar thing would end in a huge waste of time and people like happened multiple times including the nefarious adventure of Alexander the Great or the mongols.Greeks (Macedonians) got far closer to China than Romans because the Persian/Archaemenid-Empire-flavor-of the moment was weak and didn't stop them as happened 3-5 centuries afterwards with Rome.
>>275057028Unironically Chue is the one that pushes Cat² to warm herself even a little bit to her dad, also the Sparrow is the biggest JinshixMaomao fan, as long a she can have Maomao every now and then
>>275058079I'm sure that it was Gaoshun
>>275058111>horsesHell, why are Arabian horses so great?Don't they prefer riding camels?
>>275058076Because history is fucking interesting, I like to read all the bullshit everyone did IRL while also talking about a Clown slut and her autistic cat charge
>>275058214Arabian horse
>>275058009It's a real pity. Somehow their website is still up if you want to check some things out, including a scene with blondie chick's tits out in the gallery
>>275058214Horses were critical for the military (communication, transport and as weapon) and the grasslands horses were the best by far. Pre Han China didn't have good horses so they're stuck to using chariots for another 1000 years when every other nation already had light cavalry and mounted archers
>>275058140Unironically could also be En'en's uncle, we know Jinshi doesn't know who the fuck she is, until she nearly died saving the cat, then she's the representative of the MI clan for the next meeting
One of the most interesting stories in the history of China is about how a baby got convicted of treason at 6 month old, got send to prison, raised by the warden and eventually become the Emperor.
>>275058304How many 10s of millions of people died in the process?
>>275058304Yep, that sounds like pre-communist China, it genuinely sucks they're not here anymore, fuckers knew how to have fun
>>275058304That poor boy was the result of a purge within the royal family.When the emperor began to believe in witchcraft and allowed evil sorcerers to have power that was the result.
>>275058290Oopshttp://kalmia8.jp/grandeodalisque/index_en.html
>>275058300During the thousands of years of war between the Mongols and the Han Chinese, the horse trade was the main source of trade between the two sides during periods when they were not at war.In order to make sure that the Han people could not get enough good horses, the Mongols usually strictly controlled the amount of horses traded.And because there were no steppes like those in Mongolia, the Han were never able to raise enough horses for war.Horses were always expensive.
>>275058321Actually no one. The kid was the son of the previous heir who got framed for witchcraft and thus he got send to the prison as a hostage. Then everyone just fucking forgot that they send a baby to prison except the warden. Then the then-current emperor got a dream where the future emperor is in prison so he ordered all the prisoners to be execute. Lucky for the baby, the warden stood up against the emperor and disobey the order. The emperor would later took back the order. The baby was then sent to live with his commoners relative. Eventually the emperor died, his successor died too due to sickness and the next guy was too corrupt, the people in charge decided to picked him as the new emperor as he was the closest living descendant of the royal family. He did go on to kill an entire family but mostly because they killed his wife and attempt a coup.
>they see your dick
>>275058428In a book I've read the author claimed that China used luxury goods as a weapon agaisnt barbarian tribes that surround it. They sell the luxury goods to the tribes and make them decadent. Weaken them to conquer them or assimilating them through the decadence.
>>275058455Bug wife might tug it for a bit, and maybe even kiss it, Maomao already has her stick on her hand, 100% you're getting your peepee whacked
>>275058304>>275058441This actually comes from the most intolerable witchcraft of the ancient Chinese royal family.“巫蛊术”It's actually making a little straw man with the name of the emperor or the emperor's son written on it. Put it under their bed.Cursing the other party to die quickly.This was a favorite curse and planting act of the ancients, and anyone found out would be killed.Because you have no way to prove that the act of cursing was not done by you, the most effective way to combat political enemies and snatch the heir to the throne
>>275058510Mongolians do like Han Chinese cultural products. Clothing, art, toys, and women.Excessive entertainment can cause you to lose your fighting spirit.So in the end, it always ends up with powerful people ordering you to restore traditional Mongol customs and waging wars to expand your territory.
>>275058510It's more to make them subservient to the Han, most China dynasties were terrified of the idea that the nomad would united. The stop this from happening, they would pour resources into in tribe to let that tribe become dominant but loyal to them. After awhile, if they see that the tribe they support was becoming too powerful, they would support another tribe to usurp the old tribe.
I got a good chuckle after hearing Tanezaki Atsumi voicing both mom and daughter
Not trying to brag but I bet I can beat her up in a fight.
>>275058835Sure, but will it worth being locked in the emperors most dark, nefarious torture dungeon for the rest of your natural lifespan?
>>275058835You wouldn't even be able to get into the harem.
>>275058510>China used cheap labor as a weapon against the world. They sell cheap products to the world and make them decadent. Weaken them to conquer them or assimilating them through the decadence.Well, she is right.
>>275058290Yeah, I was sad the reverse trap didn't have an H-sample too.>Captcha: 0GAYT
>>275055192Someone get the emperor some Maeshima Ryou, Salad, Ponsuke, Chiguchu Miri, Senaka, Akubinium, Atte=>793 among others.
>>275043700Hey cool it we don't want a cat fucker in this thread >>275044536She'll get more, xiaolan helping out Maomao when her leg was bad was cute. Now she's trying to learn to read which is good
>>275059386bro, your kereno?
>>275058835Doubt so, she seems vicious
>>275043966>teaching the peasants to read is grounds for execution>from the civilization that invented the civil service examOf course not, silly
>>275058835Bro, didn't you see her absolutely curb stomping that lion/tiger thing? If she sees you, you're cooked!
>>275043217you're welcome, but the loop isn't seamless and my autism will make me try again
>>275043966Not really. Women were seen as good wife if they can read, do poetry, handle family business and recite the classic works. It just that study how to read was expensive since books and teachers were expensive, thus most commoners don't have access to education.
>>275048966In this context, it'd be more accurate to say 毛毛 means "fur fur"
>>275054119>Ubel BlattHow is this getting an anime now? I didn't even hear about it until your post.
>alcohol disinfectantThis sounds very anachronistic. It seems like the author just uses a nebulous concept of "the west" to introduce more modern elements. Can any of you history fags weigh in?
>>275055473The real hero of the story. It is funny pretty though.
The new opening is better
>>275060342This is a recurring problem in Japanese fantasy, where the worldview is set in a magical medieval setting but references modern times in the details.And unlike the Chinese, Japanese works have never been that interested in ancient Japan.A large number of works reference European culture.G.I. Joe and Mario, for example.
>>275042770who's this bitch
>>275060458>G.I. JoeThat's not Japanese
>>275056768You have weak ears. I could understand if she had gone for a different range i.e. Shuten but Victorique and Maomao don't really sound different.
>>275060502The new consort's mom. One of the old pedo emperor victim
I'm guessing this is a spy sent by Loulan because she took an interest in Maomao for some reason.
>>275060635nta but i started caring about yuuki-san with ACCA and kumo desuga. she wasn't too big before, and i watched gosick ages before that.i don't really remember any actors' performances past the last ~9y whose shows i'm not rewatching.
>>275060836yeah, I never trusted that cat
best girl, pure and untapped by the emperor because he's a flaming faggot
>>275061104Anon the majority of the concubines are pure virgins anyways
>>275061104Hairy.
>>275039943Did the emperor really had a what basically amounts to a giant fuck palast? While the poors lived in mud huts?
>>275061151That is how it worked in the past and it is still how it works today. Do you think the rich and powerful have any shortage of women?
>>275061148not for long
>>275060836Yeah that cat is kinda sus. It attacked MaoMao, tried getting close to the emperor's daughter, stole Maomao's name
>>275061007>>275061290I meant the girl...
>>275060342>>275060458Bro, using alcohol to disinfect is as old as writing.
>>275046621>implying hair and eye color means anything here when plenty of chinese characters have blue/green/purple eyes and bright hair
>>275061104For Basen
does catcat know about foot fetish
>>275048056Why does she turn catkot gay?
>>275062070She knows to kill a footfag on sight
Are maomao and jinchad together in the LN yet or are we still waiting
>>275062381Yes and no. Mao knows how Jinshi feels about her and they are in a type of relationship. Mao refuses to have sex with him though since she wants to avoid pregnancy by any means. She talked about other means of sex that leaves no chance of pregnancy, which is where the anal memes come from.
>>275045365now try chinese
>>275062459Have they kissed yet?
>>275044536Kuno Misaki using a relatively normal voice is extremely unusual
>>275062883Yes. They will this season. And later in the story Mao makes Jinshi cum while tongue raping him
Is there yuri in this series? Will maomao kiss a girl?
Would I enjoy this anime if I'm a man?
>>275063027There are lesbians in the show yes, Mao has been kissed by girls, repeatedly. But as for a lesbian relationship then no.
>>275062883>>275062998Both times they kiss Jins just being a rapechad, maomao doesn't like him
>>275063066Watch it and find out.
>>275063139I'm afraid I'll be wasting one hour of my precious time
>>275063027Maomao was raped by her Onee-Chans when she was younger
>>275063125Completely incorrect. While at first she's unsure, she does have feelings for him
>>275058079WN reader It's Ah Duo, with the mission of making Jinshi happy
>>275056022>almost eat her outWhen does this happen?
>>275062998It's LN5 so season 3 since it's one volume for cour.
>>275064123I was referring to The mouth to mouth after jumping down the waterfall.
MAOMAO IS SLUT! SLUT!
>admonisher of thievesLmao I love the emperor
>>275055409Why hasn't this chud been executed yet for going against the Emperor's orders? The word of the Emperor is the word of the heavens.
So, does Maomao love out Rapechad? Or is she simply doing it because she thinks saying no to him would be suicide
>>275064536catcat is poisonsexual
>>275064536A bit of both. She also does it out of curiosity.
>>275064577>curiosityWhat a slut
>>275064339 If the emperor killed Gaoshun, he would be forced to do his paperwork and not going in the harem
>>275064536>RapechadGo away. You ruin every single fucking shoujo with your shit.
>>275066083It's clearly a fujo that needs rape correction
Anon wasn't lying: from the latest LN translation that just came out.
this might be the only good anime airing this winter
>>275067050Medalist and Akuyaku Ojisan are good too.
>>275066874wow... she really is into anal
>>275045189Seems like the best way for Japanese to distinguish between western and Japanese anime girls is still to give white women straight long noses kek.
>>275067448Haven't watched the former but the latter makes me question if you understand what I mean by good.
>>275061235I can't wait for this to get animated.
>>275066874I... don't think she was planning for anal with that. I mean, if it was anal, why would she bother with all the cow intestine condoms and abortifacients? I think she was worried that she might accidentally poop herself while having sex
I want to spank Maomao`s butt
>>275067542ojisan is simply good, so you must have inferior criteria.
I want Maomao to spank my butt
>>275067977Are you a girl
>>275068050there are no girls only trannies and manchildren on /a/.
>>275068221Whatever you say, sis
The more I read the LN, the less I like Jinshi and the new characters.
>>275067897Maomao thinks of nothing but sex!
>>275068439the aesthetic is great, but they're still chinese nobles living from taxes of poor farmers.
So, Jinshi still has his balls, or not?
>>275068667He has 3 balls actually
>>275068439He's really just a spoiled brat throwing a tantrum when the cat doesn't play her part
>>275061151Just like IRL
>>275069123He's a bit of a prick to her tbdesu
>>275060342Wine was used before surgeries in Rome, and this is the 1500s-1600s if not the fucking 1800s, guns are already in the third phase of development, meaning you got rifles rather than muskets, so is just Li is a backwards shithole but Maomao's adoptive dad studied in whatever the fuck is the "far west" Britain or Spain
>>275069351Don't know in what LN you are but there's a term later on "doing a Jinshi", Maomao usually knows shit is going south when Jinshi does a Jinshi, at least the Emprah punches his face, then maomao, then he beats himself
>>275069379i was checking a few sources on alcohol effectiveness at low concentration this week.even tiny amounts have some effect on proliferation. you can stop a lot of pathogens from growing from ~4%, e coli (poop bacteria) grow 90% slower at just 7%, most pathogens stop at 12 and you're basically set at ~22.if you want to actually kill bacteria and not just stop them, >~54% or you add some acid and even 40 can do it.i always thought you needed 70 but here we are.
>>275069123Rikuson>>Jinshi
>>275069565> the Emprah punches his face, then maomao, then he beats himself Based, she needs to get back at him at least once
>>275069379Author in a tweet said that society is 16th/17th century(not Romeo and Juliet translation are coming from the West in LN6) while science is 19th, clothes are a bit random.
>>275050298You Sir are a swine
>>275044295Chairman Maomao
>>275069876our science friends in not europe collectively deciding they will not do any industrialization, develop early bolt actions, nor lay any rail for border logistics.charitable of them.
>>275069782Riku is too much of a cuck, he had two chances to steal Maomao, he dropped the spaghetti both times, while yes, the second it was due to Chue being the queen of all MxJ fangirls still he could at least have a kiss
>>275070729Wait Maomao was almost swayed?
>>275069876Dude whatever they have in unified EVROPE must be something else, yet they still want to kill foreigners almost on sight, they're kinda weird
>>275070765Riku danced with Maomao, he wanted to marry the double cat, and she played along but when Riku hesitated due to the moon prince she just smiled and went back to eat, second time was the Clown-sparrow doing, Chue lives for drama, she's the one that tried to get them together, then she's the one that snitched to Jinshi, and may or may not have mocked the prince, which made Jinshi go into full "BREED MAOMAO" mode, at least he controlled himself
>>275070729Jinshi was ready to accuse him of treason if anything happened.
>>275069782Reminder that Rikuson is 28
>>275067490Jokes on them. I think straight long noses are cute.
>>275071169Technically he could have eloped with her into Shaoh, but don't think Cat² would go with him, she wasn't right in the head during the last part of that volume, and Riku already had too much bullshit to deal with, still being passive-aggressive to Jinshi after he fixed his relationship with Maomao is cuck behavior
>>275069847Maomao doesn't take shit from Jinshi in the last volumes, she's still cordial unless they're alone, then she goes full bitchwife mode
>>275069782Luckily he can win in fanarts...Or maybe not?
>>275071688Hope he gets someone, after all the bs in the western palace he deserves some pussy, even if it ain't pussypussy
>>275071688Still can't explain how Rikuhan became the most popular Lahan pairing
>>275071154Kinda sad that she probably would've gone with him if sparrow didn't snitch
>>275039943>Hyuga Natsu Wait, is the author a fucking MALE??
>>275061235What is she doing with the wire??
>>275072152>naming your kids Huge Nutsjaps are weird
>>275072152Pseudonym, a fun thing is that she wanted to put Uribou(Boar piglet) but her editor thought it would be weird so she now uses Natsu Hyuga for all her works, but on Xwitter they all call her Uri-sensei.Also she's a mother, since I've seen her talking about her children in a bunch of tweets.She also got a Boar costume recently.
>>275072470is she nodame!?
>>275072470She has other two series right?
>>275072470>patterns herself with a pigsona>main character has a catsonaIs she a furry or something?
>>275071985Not true. She was just trying to gage Jinshis interest
>>275073674gayge his interest?
>>275073194Yes the two other series has been licensed recently.This one is actually popular enough in Japan for being a shoujo.I don't know about the other one
>femoids literally shilling this show like its the second coming of christ>watch it, expecting neat intellectual sciencey pre-medicine show >muh ancient chinese herbs>its literally just House M.D. except makes no sense because maomao has knowledge that literally didn't exist yet>le girls life is so le hard get shelter and hot meals every day>men literally castrated wow, so brave
>>275074821Go back to pol retard
>>275066083That clearly isn't innit. Innit would've typed māomāo.
>>275043966Like others pointed out. Literacy is seen as a positive. But there is no real reason to get literate for women. Thats the entire point of spreading novels, to make the women want to learn.
>>275074821>just House M.D. except makes no senseAre you implying House ever made sense? The House where they intentionally kill or threaten to kill patients they don't like because their political views don't align with coastal liberalism?
>>275074821please don't compare to my boy house, maomao has nothing over him
looking at those pretty whores makes me wonder how they actually looked back in that era, I know it's wuxia, but it still draws inspiration from somewhere. I wonder if their skin was with acne and diseases, how many of them had venereological stuff.
>>275075954Also, did they skip over her mom's death in the novel too?
>>275074821Funny you say that when we have an actual not-House anime this season.
>>275061407>>275069379Sure but Europe wasn't using antiseptics until the 19th century.>>275069876>while science is 19thSo I am right that the author is using a nebulous concept of the west to use more modern science. But Li clearly isn't 17th century Qing dynasty. It's based on earlier dynasties like Tang/Song/Ming, and it's not during the end of the Ming when the dynasty was declining.
It's not china anyway.
>>275062070According to a source reader, Maomao's weak spot is her feet so she must be familiar with the concept.
>>275076109> and it's not during the end of the Ming when the dynasty was declining.You could argue that Li is in fact "declining" but they're saved with magic potatoes and the author weakening the northern neighbors.
>>275076252I want to pakopako maomao's ashimanko until she cums
>>275076337There's a doujin that has some foot play. I don't know if the artist added it because she knows about it or if it's a coincidence.
>>275076312Li is declining and the throne is weakening.There are few heirs, a lot of old noble families got eradicated and consorts from outside the empire are coming into the harem.Without La, Ma and Mi they would all be invaded by Hokuaren.
Maomao is a cute! A CUTE
>>275076753
Seeing them talking about Emperor's dead kids and afterwards little princess finding a kitten was intense. I kept waiting for a scratch or that sort of "subversion"
>>275076753A cute slut?
>>275043566Doing this to Maomao
>>275044966Best girl is here! There was a new track playing during this scene. Is that going to be Shisui's theme? I like it.
