first of all, this was good. another reminder to never trust /a/ ever againbut most importantly i'm SO fucking pissed that the stupid alien had the red thread of friendship, and the opening showed the girls connected by it, but it is never used in the anime itself. if he tied the 2 brats in episodes 1 everything would've ended properly right away, but ok he's stupid. but then he could've at least done that in the final episode but no, it had to be a deus "we selectively remember things from future timelines that don't exist" ex machinaalso azuki/naoki/whatever plot was a fucking waste of time, could've cut 2 episodes by removing his "drama" completely
>>282388660I just don’t get what teh fuck the author wanted, it tries to be a somewhat realistic portrayal of abuse but then everything is solved by happy magic or whatever, defying time and space by giving the girls small memories of event that never happened in their new timelineLike actual attempts at conversation don’t work but suddenly we can be besties because we remember the little space octopus i guess oh and the other kid got a ps4 so he has friends now, cool, this shit goes nowhere
>>282388767Miseryporn is not realism. In real life people have nuance (and brain).
I loved It but the ryona scenes were giving me weird mix signals, why they made the beatings so damn hot?
>>282388767i mean, he's a fucking alien with magic gadget, and he had the gadget to fix everything but it never got used>I just don’t get what teh fuck the author wantedit was a typical "good/evil are relative" thing, and i appreciated them at least trying to be edgy (i read too many vns so when the fake marina said she wanted to live with her father i thought the mom would kys herself and he would start raping her daughter but oh well, it's still a safe-edgy netflixsloppa). and even the magic spin is ok but ffs, if you set rules for your universe DO NOT BREAK THEM, especially if there's no need totakopi has to be the mangaka's self-insert
>>282388845Hello new friend.
>>282388806oh yeah, and the thing about her pocking the eye offscreen was retarded and ooc no matter how "evil" she was
>>282388857i watched more animes than you zoomer
>>282388859>offscreenThat is the only bad thing about the show, I wanted to see more ryona.
>animes
>>282388881>animes
>>282388767It IS the most realistic portrayal of bullying. Happy magical ending is there to laugh at you, who thought that there is a solution.The only solution to bullying is to bully and victim to reconcile, and it's not achievable except through magical deus ex machina.
>>282388988nah, a lot of people become friends with their bullies
>>282388660Retard, the friendship ribbon won't actually make people reconcile. Too many people can't understand subtext.
>>282389016And here I am, 20 years later still hoping to some day dance on the grave of my school bullies.I guess they weren't bullied enough.That scene where Shizuka is bursing with happiness when Marina dies is the most on point thing in the entire show.
>>282389076>the wings make you fly>the camera takes you back in time>the flower makes you invisible>the thingy that clones people>"NOOOOOOOOOOOO THE FRIENDSHIP RIBBON DOESN'T WORK BECAUSE... I JUST SAY SO, OK???"
>>282388660>another reminder to never trust /a/ ever again/a/ generally loved the show. Like 80% of the hate is Majima schizo spamming because yuri won.
>>282389174>yuricucksof course... i should've known better...
>>282388660I recently discovered this was produced by the same man who forced Poptepepic seasons 1&2.Literally saving anime by himself.
>>282389169It's a ribbon that stretches far and doesn't break. His explanations of the gadgets are from the perspective happians who are simple and happy all the time and reconcile easily. Just like how he says the wings can make you fly freely through the sky but for the heavier humans, they can only fly a little bit above the ground for a short amount of time.
>>282389447it might be less effective but still enough to make a change. like making them talk to each other simply because they are stuck together
>>282389473>making them talk to each other simply because they are stuck togetherYeah that's how it works but at that point they weren't really at a state where they could just talk things out
>>282389491just tie them together until they sort it out. i'm pretty sure there are other anime that did this and it worked
>>282388767>I just don’t get what teh fuck the author wantedHe wanted to draw little girls crying, suffering, and hitting each other in implausible situations and hope you’d feel bad for them and buy their manga or something.
>>282389016When I was a kid, there was a classmate who bullied me, falselly accused me to the teacher, laughed at me, etc. In the end, we got into a fight and became best friends. There's a huge difference between that and literally trying to stab you in the eye with a pen, destroying all your school supplies, insulting your parents, and killing your dog (Nooooo it happened in a deleted timeline, meaning the 10 yo girl had 100% intent to do it, but the octopus acked himself so now it’s all’ good).
>>282390356she never killed the dog>b-b-but the pest contr-she never killed the dog
>>282388660I don't know what bothers me more, if many here think that realism is a quality in itself or if they think that showing little kids being abused just for the sake of showing little kids being abused is realistic.A truly realistic work would explore the complexities of real life. Takopi doesn't give a fuck about them, it just wants to make you cry.
>>282391439i never said anything about realism tho
>>282388767>I just don’t get what teh fuck the author wantedPretty much, is like the series tries to tell you a message but that message gets fucked in the ass by the next message, that also gets fucked in the ass and on and on, is like every 5 minutes the author pick up idea balls to know how to make the story progress without any coherence, only to end up fucking its very premise in the ass at the end.
>>282388767Because they have something to connect with over now. The whole point is that magic can't solve their problems. It was the kindness that Takopi showed them that saved them.
>>282391760Your post doesn't have any coherence. Learn English.
>>282388988>Happy magical ending is there to laugh at youThis is the first time anyone has used "I was only pretending to be retarded" to justify bad writing, the show was interesting until the author decided to just make the mc a full psycho for no reason and ran out of ideas on what to do with the characters next. A terrible ending is a natural consequence
>>282391981>make the mc a full psychoYou are a full retard
>>282391916No argument?>>282391886Premise: Magic can't solve your problemsCocnlusion: Only magic can solve your problemsYes.
>>282391981>”I was only pretending to be retarded"Funnily enough, the author then did exactly this to justify his shit writing in Ichinose.
>>282388660Marina was best girl
>>282392060>Only magic can solve your problemsHow many times do you need to be shown Takopi fucking things up and failing to solve problems before it gets through your thick skull?
>>282388767>I just don’t get what teh fuck the author wanted>>282391760>>282391916The message is literally spoken in the final episode: communication is the key to happiness. That's why the show is misery porn, because the MC is reduced to an idiot who can only understand such a simple message after seeing everyone suffer in the cruelest way possible.
>>282388660Yeah, he was stupid, several episodes cover this.Besides, the friendship device probably had some catch like needing to physically be tied all the time for it to work or something.Ultimately, he became the red thread of friendship so in the end, their bond was way deeper than what any kind of alien device could create.
>>282392139He messed things up, but in the end he secured a much better future than whay they would have had without him. For starters, the dog wouldn't even be alive, lol
>>282392139Excuse me sir, how do you rationalize Takopii memories flying through time and space?
>>282392060It wasn't magic that solved everyone's problems. It was death.The death of an invading vermin.The manga is against immigration
>>282392112She’s the cutest in 2D, but the implications of her having monolid eyes and how they look in 3D is a huge turn off.
>>282392164>the MC is reduced to an idiot who can only understand such a simple messageHe's a happian. The brokenness of humans is completely foreign to him. That's the point of his character. In the first episode he was already repeating "you just need to talk things out." The problem is he doesn't understand how they can even do that. Shizuka and Marina have nothing to communicate over since at that point Marina would refuse to listen to anything Shizuka says. Takopi is the bridge that allows them to start communicating.
>>282392232Only after his character arc completes and he admits he doesn't know how to solve any of Shizuka's problems because it's too complicated for him.
>>282392289After sacrificing himself for the camera, he became one with space and time. Takopi died for our sins and he will always be in our hearts. He's the ribbon in Shizuka's and Marina's hearts tying them together. If you have a problem with feelings and memories being preserved across time in time travel stories, there's a lot you're going to be mad about.
>>282392593This bro is saying Jesus is not magical.
>>282392391>That's the point of his character.And my point is that him only understanding everything at the very end, after a whirlwind of suffering and death, is lazy writing. He and the other characters could have grown gradually but instead of learning from each mistake he just gets dumber and dumber.
>>282388660>also azuki/naoki/whatever plot was a fucking waste of time, could've cut 2 episodes by removing his "drama" completelyMmm, yes, but the fact that his drama comes from the simple fact that he's an idiot and refuses to talk to the people who genuinely care about him because he's too busy trying to appeal to someone who doesnt care, and all he needed to do was value who truly love him is a better and more grounded message than whatever the messy main plot was trying to convey. Also, his brother was based
>>282393317I disagree. Takopi shows a lot of gradual growth. Just in the first episode he experiences what fear is for the first time and he grows to overcome it. After posing as Marina, he sees firsthand the consequences and gravity of his actions and begins to reflect on his mistakes. By the penultimate episode, he already learns how to say no to Shizuka and recognize when something is bad for her instead of blindly following whatever she says. Getting his memories back and his final conversation with Azuma was the last pivotal moment for him.
>>282388660It's another Silent Voice, Anon. Weebs are gonna recommend it, call it "pretty realistic", only because it has bullying in it.
we all had that one kid in class who got Pencil Stabbed in the eye by bullies. Very realistic
>>282388660This hit close to home. I also didn't pay for my school meals, even though the other kids did. I never knew I was teetering on the edge of being bullied to death...
>>282388660>also azuki/naoki/whatever plot was a fucking waste of time, could've cut 2 episodes by removing his "drama" completelyA kid ruining himself for the approval of a girl he thinks is cute is one of the more realistic aspects of the story thoughIt also serves to show how far gone Shizuka was by that point where she was legitimately happy Marina ate shit and died and her wanting Naoki to take the fall so she could continue looking for Chappy
Fuck Marina
>>282399272Ok, here I go
>>282391981>This is the first time anyone has used "I was only pretending to be retarded" to justify bad writingJujutsu kaisen, my hero academia, attack on titan, chainsaw man...
Marina rape
>>282388660Don't give a shit about it. No one talk about the real anime this season so fuck all you fakes.
>>282402594No fucking threads about this anime at all you all fucking have shit taste. You can't find shit on your own. You all only watch popular anime at the time.
>>282402664Not saying what this anime is. Nice to enjoy something for ones without fags shit it up.
>>282402691I like female main character but holy shit this too much. Almost every anime now days is female main character or pussy mc.
>>282389305Season 3 when?
