Did you enjoy the first ep /a/?
I guess I'll post stitches here

love fish
>>282723439Because she wants to kill herself?
I love the angsty atmosphere and will be disappointed when it inevitably disappears.
As a fan of the manga I think this definitely deserved better production than what it got, can tell the studio and staff tried their best with the resources they had though. Voice acting and OST were pretty good.At this point I don't have hopes of it getting anything in terms of popularity just don't crash and burn like Sasakoi and I'll be satisfied
>>282723488i have good news
thingken of fish
Is this actual yuri or just bait?
>>282723650it's yuri
>>282723650If you have to ask this you're probably a retard who doesn't get it to begin with.
>>282723026Yes.its the usual low budget Yuri adaptation but they did their best.Now lets see if the anime crash and burn like sasakoi
Good adaptation. Just as slow and melancholic as I hoped.Also it's really funny to watch this after playing Silent Hill f with all those japanese horror cliches, "you belong to me" concept and HINAKO HINAKO HINAKO.
Judging by the OP visuals the anime will get to the good part so I'm cautiously optimistic they are saving their resources for that portion of the story

Not great, production isn't good either so this won't be popular.
>>282724487maybe near the endfish tits are a bit exaggerated in this one...
Time ago i drawn thiscan you get who is the second team?
>>282724568Why is there a fish for everything? I know there's a shitload of them but are we really running out of names?
>>282724370the fish is the earliest symbol of yuri
I didn't think the production quality was noticeably poor. I mean, it's not KyoAni, but yeah, it's not Sasakoi either.The premise is interesting.
do you like fish tits?do you like putting fish tits in your mouth?then you're a gay fish
Fish needs tits because she has nothing else going for her
>Lesbian version of Saya no utaAbout time.
>>282724616Also I can think of a couple anime from last season with actual noticeably poor production quality (Futari Solo Camp, Watari-kun). Like, those are anime you take one look at and are like, yep, they spent like $500 on this.At no point watching this episode did I get the impression I was watching a poor production. Don't know why everyone is ragging on the budget/production.
>>282724650Excuse me but her boobs aren't everything, she's also pretty dumb!
>>282724650Fish is charming.
>>282724287She just likes the sea
>>282724698Some people wanted it to be like Frieren/studio bind to go viral, but then again I think every anime adaptation has expectations like this those days.
Amazing atmosphere and music. Seiyuu are on point as well. It was kino but I don't see it exploding in popularity. The budget issues will turn newfriends away, and the story is too melancholic to catch the attention of normalfags. The target a/u/dience (manga readers) is too niche to carry it alone. Hope I'm wrong though
I fucking love dead-eyed kuuderes
>>282724763I am fine with it not getting popular, I will be content as long as the adaptation is good and threads are fun.
>>282724755>every anime adaptation has expectations of being on the same level of quality as the magnum opus of a studio widely regarded for decades as being one of the finest studioshaha
OP of the season. I wanna be a depressed teenage girl again.
>>282724699I thought predators were supposed to be intelligent hunters?!?
>>282724505the most powerful reality marble
I leave my lesbian here for one freaking minute and she's already soaking wet.
>>282724287>>282724376it's absolutely depressionhaving been there myself (although not as bad as Hinako) it's scarily accuratelike a weight pressing down on you all the time and you can't really escape itthe classroom scene where her friends' voices gradually got drowned out by the sea was a great representation of depression not allowing you to feel happy even for a short while
Haven't caught up with the manga for a very long time, but I liked the first ep quite a bit. As anons already said, the sound design is fantastic, both the music and the voices. The atmosphere works as good as it did in the manga. Hopefully this adaptation won't become another Sasakoi, but so far it hasn't disappointed me at all.
>>282723026I thought this was a Tsukihime Remake thread for a moment
>>282724830NTA but yes, it's actually like that. 10/10 adaptations have set the standards so high anything average gets completely glossed over and forgotten. If your anime isn't chock-full of sakuga to put into tiktok clips there's a slim chance it'll ever go viral. Not that that's a bad thing though, I don't mind it when good shows stay under the mainstream radar since you get to have comfy threads free of contrarian shitposters.
>>282723305>CUZ I FEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLL
>>282724945niggerbro, you need to lower the CRF and the target size of your webms...
how wet was she
>>282725135Dripping wet clearly.

So red is best girl right?
>>282725213Yes.
>>282725213
>I like her because... she wants to eat meThat's a new one
The thing is, shows can look absolutely amazing while still having terrible production issues in the background. That's what usually leads to delays in episodes, or later episodes having errors and melting. This show only needs to ride on the atmosphere, vibe, and music. As long as the production doesn't break down completely like Sasakoi, it'll be fine. It doesn't look as cheap as In Love With The Villainess did.
>>282725291>It doesn't look as cheap as In Love With The Villainess did.And yet that show was so fun.Rae was really fun.
>>282723026Loved the OP/ED and OSTs.Sure the animation isnt fluid but it works well. The most important for me is that they nailed the atmosphere. I don't normally watch stuff that I already read, but I will for this unless the quality drops.
>>282725213Just saying, she like eat, pregnant woman...
>>282725213Yep
gyarubaba...
Miko is shit.Kaho is shit.
Kaho a shit.
above poster is dry
>>282725074Sure on the audience side. But the production side never changed. The goal is to get the name out there and push enough merchandise to justify selling the rights, which might be easier in the streaming post-BD era. It's rare for an anime to be such a complete flop it hurts the source material. Watatabe's anime might not become anything especially memorable, but I guarantee it'll put the manga on a lot of casuals radar.

>>282725542I generally don't like those kinds of themes either, but watatabe really does it well, the chapters that really go into it are very memorable.

>>282725542Yuri needs spice
>>282725492Translation: that file is unnecessarily large for the length of the clip and the amount of motion and visual detail it has, my melanin-enriched companion.(The fix is to raise the CRF, not lower it. Silly fish.)
>>282725621It's to hide her scars
>>282725842>yuri>cutting and self harmdoes anyone want this?i hope not.
>>282725903Right, they should only cut and harm each other

>>282726042>stabbed right in the spineshe's never walking again, anon.
Very nice atmosphere. Production seems mid in quality. But audio recording is incredibly high quality. I just hope animation won't melt mid way.
>>282726068Tis but a scratch.
>>282726018I don't know.They should just show a normal lesbian relationship with plenty of domestic violence.
>>282726002>he posted the wrong tl againFaggot.
>>282726068>stabbedthey're just gentle boxcutter love scratches, she can still walk fine
It was great. I think the music selection and placement was kind of off, though I feel like that applies to the vast majority of modern anime.
>>282723488Dude it gets worse.
>>282726018Go back to your boring Sasakoi if you can't handle a miniscule amount of plot, dude.
>>282724763It's very hard to lose money on anime. This will have a decent following even if it's not going to top charts or anything.
How do anime-onlies feel about the first episode I feel like it's all mangafags here
The production is fine apart from the few stills of random npcs, they put all their effort into every scene with water in it
>>282726565I haven't watched it yet.
>>282726565It's alright.
>>282726568People are spoiled by the likes of Ruri Rocks or Watanare. The worry is if it can keep decent quality through the entire run. Especially since it's going to have some action. First fight was supposed to be like this she barely saw shit in the manga too.
>>282726565I liked it. The OST, voice acting and sound design do a lot of heavy lifting, but they do a pretty good job setting the right atmosphere. Not a fan of the color design so far (too "standard"; not moody enough), but that's a regular pet peeve of mine.
>>282726565Pretty good. Could be worse, could be better. Not-so-high production quality kinda shows, but as other Anons said, the sound design and VA work is really good.
>>282726565i liked it, and am curious to see how it's going to turn out
>>282725026titsa fish with titstittyfish
>>282726565I don't read paper anime.
>watanare sisters all over the shop in this thread
>>282726640I was thinking about that too. Last season had a surprisingly high amount of adaptations with good to excellent production values, and Watanare wasn't even within the best five in that regard, so that shows how many good adaptations there were last season.
I really hope they got all the graphic violence ("ryona") out of the way.No one likes that shit in cute yuri shows.
>>282723591takeuchi?
Thank god they were not retarded enough to spoil how she really looks.

They got the slow horror atmosphere right. Can't wait for Miko parts.

>>282726565I enjoyed it, obviously lower production values than Watanare but I'm still looking forward to watching it each week.
>>282727281Depends. Is ur mom gae?
Wow she's literally me.
>>282727030But how would the sex work with those long-ass nails??

>>282727030Hot as fuck
>>282727341Thank you based Yui.
>>282727281I watched it with my daughter. So far,it seems Kimishinu would be the one I might not watch with her if they go too graphic with Mimi slicing enemies. Oddly enough it has the most adorable romantic moments out of the last 3 yuri adaptations I was planning to watch.
How popular is the manga in Japan? I figure this isn't going to be as big as Watanare was.
>>282726651If even normal scenery is gloomy then the scenes with her depression creeping in lose impact.
What would happen if I was in her class and when she gets called to answer a question, I yell: >"Speak up, we can't hear you!"

>>282726719she looks like chikane in that pic
>>282727662A good art director can still come up with a baseline palette for everyday scenes and variations of intensity for scenes where it matters. See: last season's Hikaru.
I hope the next gay mermaid manga to get an adaptation is the one that's just X-Com: Terror From the Deep
>>282727750I just hope that they deliver when they show their full monster version, the manga did an amazing job, specially with miko

As someone who doesn't care about romance, yuri, or horror... I was still utterly enthralled by the manga when I tried it on a whim after an anon posted a page from it back in like February.Some fantastic art, great atmosphere, really creative use of water imagery, constant callbacks and echoing of dialog and phrases for thematic emphasis, and the romance, horror elements, and monster fights are used really effectively as a vehicle to explore trauma, interpersonal communication, and self-betterment.It honestly reminded me of Evangelion, though obviously not as effective or with as deep character writing... Shiori aside, who I legitimately think is one of the most interesting characters I've ever seen in media. Regardless of how much more you learn about her and she gets recontextualized, there's always some fucked up interesting dynamic or spin to things. Legit want to write a whole essay about her but I worry I can't clarify much more without spoilers or it becoming cringeHaven't watched the episode yet, but I admit I am worried about the animation, art, and mood from what I have seen. This really deserved a visually creative and surreal adaptation that goes nuts with effects and compositing and we clearly did not get that>>282723488Don't worry. The nature and dynamics behind the angst and toxicity/dysfunction do shift over time, but it's never not there>>282723650It's not just bait, but it's not really explicit romance/lust either, if only in the sense that their relationship is way weirder then that and Shiori lacks normal human concepts of romance and love and affection to begin with to think or talk about her feelings that way. But it's clearly still there and if there is a confession one chapter (and there probably will be given how much more of a focus the romantic undercurrent has been lately) then in retrospect you could clearly say that basically the whole manga had been building up an explicitly romantic relationship.
man im halfway through, im gonna FUCKING fall asleep
>>282728018>>282727983>>282727961>>282727870>>282727959Bros, I gotta be honest, I usually just download the release with the highest filesizeIs that not actually a safe bet to get the highest quality release possible in terms of image/video quality?
Hope it has yuri sex just like watanare
Damn, Hinako is voiced by Ueda Reina. I loved her performance in everlasting flowers.
>>282728917>I usually just download the release with the highest filesizeyou're computer illiterate.AV1/H265(HEVC) are same quality at a lower bitrate, hence the smaller filesizes
>>282728886With me.

>>282728950But don't download an AV1/H265 release if it's in red on Nyaa as that's a re-encode.

>>282724287Underwater just symbolize being underwater, it's not that deep
>>282728867The romance set up reminds me of robot x human stories. Shiori needs an event to make her realize her feelings go beyond toying with her prey.
>>282728940And Fairouz is a great pick for genki characters. I also find it funny they're all ex Precures.
can someone give me a recap of the last 10 mins of the episode? I fell asleep
Where do you all think the season will end?By my math it should be sometime between the end of the fight with Ayame, and sometime during Shiori and Miko's zoo-date/Shiori backstory flashback

>>282729884To be fair, Tachibanakan Triangle was really bad and deserves that score.
>>282726018>2025>all yuri is fucking weirdo fetish shitWhat do you mean by this when Watanare was in 2025 and that was the most milquetoast shit imaginable.
>>282729884Oomuro-ke is a 10 objectively speaking, but because it has no "plot" these faggots will only give it an 8 at best.
NORMALIZE EATING HOT WOMEN
>>282729884That website is shonenshitter central.Add a point to every SoL anime there to get its actual rating.SoL anime get a point knocked off there just for being SoL anime.
>>282729837i think i'm the only person in the world who doesn't think it fitsi would have liked a slightly more nasal, breathy voiceher voice is so clear it's like she struggles to enter the vocal fry registerthe acting itself is fine though, so i can accept it
>>282726018>weirdo fetish shit?This has been very normal so far, unless you think fish girl is somehow a "weirdo feitsh"At least wait until Kitakawa adaptation before you complain
>>282730211>Kitakawa adaptation0% chance
>>282729884UtenaRevue Starlight movie Liz and the Blue Bird...That's the best I can do
>>282727378it's not the main couple, it's fine
yeah... if this is what yuri has become then I can see how Watanare was such a breath of fresh air for so many
This seems a bit too heavy for me desu
>>282730254It will be announced after Manio announces her new series trust the plan
>>282730393I wasn't really a fan of how manic the Watanare adaptation was. Its pacing was downright frantic.
pacing of death and despair. But oh well, I like it here.
>>282730288>Liz and the Blue Birdnot yuri
>>282730288Those are really good but not about really about romance.
>>282729019>Opus being transparent at 128kbpsopus starts losing detail to my ear in complex ensembles. if i want to enjoy it i give it 150.>>282728940>Uedahmmmm this makes me want to consider itt. i don't really watch gloomy dramas.
>>282724501fish is rude
What does she smell like that despite being insufferable she still pulls bitches
>>282730031Cute
>>282723026it is insane how sick I am of black-haired stoic beauties when the superior version (energetic childhood friend) is right. there.
>>282728662What is the relationship of themgf?
>>282730426Honestly Watanare is written to be frantic, it's full of twists and turns with Renako constantly on the edge.
>>282730406Deep heaviness isn't the constant default, it does have moments of levity and jokes.
>>282729462>thematically, the most appropriate place would be when they formally establish their new pledge together, so I hope they make it that far. I don't think impossible if they use their time wisely.That would be chapter 28, I think that's way too far along, sadly: Episode 1 covered around 52 pages, assuming that pace is consistent, that'd bring us to midway through chapter 23. Keep in mind i'm not coutning the end of volume bonuses or other things like that, if any of that is adapted (and I ideally think a lot of it would be), then that's gonna make it slower, not fasterI think MAYBE there's a shot of it getting to chapter 26 with the scene of Hinako admitting to Miko she wants to die, but I think chapter 28 is just too far along, even 26 very probably is
>>282730950What if they pull a Watanare with a "movie" sequel?
>>282723026Tell me where to watch it first
I'm glad to see so much positivity here, the story and atmosphere seem great while the animation looked a bit worrying. But let's hope for the best.
>>282731041same place as usual newfag
>>282730695
>>282730895>it does have moments of levity and jokes.Yeah but the set up is she's going to get eaten (literally) in the end anyways
>>282730950That moment in chapter 28 is literally in the OP
>>282730031
>>282731122But that's romantic.
>>282731148I don't like it
>>282731122the only thing getting munched is her rug, don't worry about it
>>282731041On your PC.
>>282731089How long has she not bathed?
the heaviness and dark themes are what make the payoff worth it. serious spoilers in image, open at own risk.
>>282731199>eyes are still deadIt's over.
>>282731089Since she started middle school.
Alright spoil me, is the redhead a mermaid as well? Does the blue girl succeed in killing MC? Does anyone in the main cast die?
>>282731211Just watch the show bro
>>282731089how do you even avoid your classmates finding out about this "secret" for what, 6 years?she's never participated in gym class? she's always skipped swim lessons?i know it doesn't matter, but that part just felt sillyplus no p.e. uniform or school swimsuit hinako is a crime
>>282731199yeah I'm not opening this. Thanks for the warning.
>>282731199Lame, I like the current atmosphere
>>282731199>spoilers>empty speech bubbles
>>282731312Don't worry it doesn't happen quick, and even then... you'll see.
>>282725367S2 never
Fish yuri but instead of Shiori it's an isekai'd Renako (Watanare), now a mermaid herself.
>>282731255a teenage girl feeling self-conscious about horrific scars that mutilated her body is pretty normal. i dont think her intention was ever to hide that it happened completely, its implied that its one of those things everybody kinda already knows happened to her and the school has always accomodated her. im actually a little surprised they havent done the bully angle. it would be so great for her to get bullied and then for fish to disembowel them for it.
>>282731211The readhead is also gay
>>282731485>not bloomers100% female author confirmed
>>282730735It's made by a woman. The nysterious supernatural lover that want to eat MC is more desirable than the nice girl
>>282731541
>>282731485No one bullies Hinako because fox is well liked at school and Hinako is her best friend.
>>282731485let the right one in (not anime) might be up your alleybook > swedish movie > american movie
>>282731556Makes you wonder if she had a really depressed friend.In one of the afterwords she talks about how the bridge (the one in their first meeting in chapter 1) is an IRL place that she passed all the time when going to school, so at least that general area is inspired by her home town.I relate to feeling nostalgic about random ass spots in my small home town. They wouldn't mean anything to an outsider, but every corner and street has a memory to me.
>>282729681Yuri is my Job and Watatabe were produced by a female producer that seems to be obsessed with yuri. She seems to be OK with losing money as long as there's more yuri anime.
Depressed orphan girl? I know exactly how to save her
>>282731773I still don't understand how this bitch lived all by herself with no parents and no guardian of any kind.
>>282731556>>282731735Are we sure that it's not she herself who's depressed?
>>282731783japan has a very generous public fund for main characters
>>282731783she's a strong independent super cub owner who don't need a family
>>282731783She's dead inside but still can perform basic duties. And unlike pic related, she has a genki friend that can make her feel less miserable for short moments
I'd be obsessed with this show when I was a depressed teenager
>>282731841Is any of that a steady source of income?
>>282731735i hope the anime convinces more people to take the pilgrimage to the holy site
>>282727609>watching yuri with your daughterNot cool, bro. You're supposed to lead her into normalcy. What if she become a dyke? That's funny on cartoons but terrible in real life
>>282732019Legends say that if you stand here long enough, you'll meet a mermaid girl.
>>282727609Tell your daughter to read Kitakawa
I want to die and don't want go to the therapist! Please, save me, my cute genki girlfriend!
>>282732085All deserve to die
>>282732051>What if she become a dyke?*hits pipe*perfect, the desired outcome
>>282729681>>282731747They work together with passione and actually some things are starting to match up, watatabe was supposed to announce a year earlier but it was delayed due to production issues, they were also supposed to be working on YY S4 this year but since they are working on watatabe it delayed it ended delaying YY S4.Infinite is a small producer which has mostly producer yuri works.
>>282731773
>>282732280A high-speed vehicle that Hinako could jump from? What could go wrong.
>>282732085What's the top right and bottom left from
>>282726565It's pretty meh. Thriller/horror stories live and die by their cinematography and visuals since getting the viewers physically spooked is a key part of the experience. Not only is the artstyle kind of generic, the way everything's lit and executed isn't unnerving at all, especially the scene where the monster girl reveals her scales and kills the other monster offscreen with a small splash of blood. I don't see thriller fans latching onto this, so it'll just be the yurifags who happen to also like/tolerate thriller elements. People will likely forget about it as soon as the season ends if they make it till the end.
is this a melodramatic melancholy slop like YagaKimi or for male audience romcom harem slop like Watanareboth sucks. I prefer fun comedy yuri like Bad Girl or Yuru Yuri
>>282732412its going to get a lot more buzz halfway through when the mermaid scene finally comes, but in general i agree with your assessment.
>>282732453melodrama for sure
>>282726565a worse version of Hikaru ga Shinda but with lesbians
I didn't have Yui Ishikawa as a gay fish on my Christmas list but I'm glad I have it
>>282732480I didn't even think Cygames did TSHD's manga justice considerinf how much money they have to throw around but Watatabe's anime made me realize TSHD really was an above average adaptation.
aquatope still better fish & yuri
>>282732453>both sucks. I prefer fun comedy yuri like Bad Girl or Yuru YuriComedy CGDCT can be enjoyable, but it's unable to ascend to true heights of something with drama or a more sturdy ovearching plot.
>>282732453GGWP is next year
>>282732480Fish yuri started 1 year before the Hikaru manga.
So what's the final hope of a yuri anime transcending Bloom Into You of the leaked and known upcoming adaptations? KimiShinu?
>>282732566GGWP is a gachi serious FGC series, nothing comedic.
Yuribros are we eating good?
>>282732332Top right: Shizuku from the summer you were there.Bottom left: Totsuki Shiina from Kimishinu.
>>282726565basically a better version of Summer Hikaru Died without the forced animation
>>282732573judging by how the current promotional materials imply they are going all-in financially behind kimishinu, that has the best chance. but its almost certainly years away
>>282732573Watanare already reached a similar level, we're just too close to it to realize it, but tons of newfags will start their yuri journey with Watanare in the future.
>>282732514I haven't read the Hikaru manga, but the anime was really damn good with its directing, sound direction, OST, atmosphere, and animation. I loved the way the earliest episodes felt like watching a found footage at times.The last third of the series was the weakest one in my opinion, but I really liked the anime regardless.
>>282732647Didn't it have ads in Japan streets like Akiba? Why they would shill an anime so far away?
>>282732514Cygames is a fraudulent company. Cinderella Gray anime is so soulless compared to the manga. The Umamusume movie was a total fluke thanks to the animators.
>>282732412This isn't a thriller or horror story.
>>282726565I think it's alright.The first episode was basically just an introduction so I'll have to wait and see if this anime is good or not.
>>282732647>kimishinuwhy the fuck does yuri always gotta be grim
>>282732759The movie was a free-form anime original with 100 minutes, CinGray anime not only has the mission of adapting dozens of hours of content (it will take no less than 50+ episodes), it was also a manga adaptation by definition, which means they wanted to follow the panelling and flow more closely, but still, it had a surprising consistency for a 2-cour show with a break in the middle.
>>282732573Kimishinu is taking its sweet time to reach the part where the school gets nuked/invaded.
>>282732894Bro we just got Watanare, that was your sweet, now it's time for salty.
>>282733030no actually we need more like that. yuri is always salty
>>282732945>the part where the school gets nuked/invadedHas that been hinted at? The worldbuiling is close to zero in that story (the enemies don't even have a name) and seems to mostly serve as a backdrop for the yuri. I thought the story was just heading to a conclusion where Mimi becomes mortal through that special spell and they either die together young (tragic ending) or they die together old (happy ending).
Fishes with names
Shiori was a mistake
>>282732761What is it then? A drama romance with sort of creepy monsters as an aesthetic? That would be worse.
>>282724796Dead eye girls are the best
>>282733267Not really, but what would be the next peak moment? I guess sex? marriage? I thought when Seiran went to lesbian heaven there would be more war related tragedies, but still like it a lot.
>>282723026Yeah, my wife is a huge fan of the manga so she wanted us to watch it together, I have high hopes for it.
>>282733427https://nukumore.jp/articles/563fold your own fish shiori today(tl note: shiori means bookmark)
I can't take this kind of le depressed high schooler anime seriously because high school is the most fun period of life>waaah I suffer as a high school student in the bet first world country ever! woe is me!is just a plain stupid concept.
>>282733538>waaah I sufferher family is fucking dead anon
>>282733566wow free life insurance money!
>>282730211>At least wait until Kitakawa adaptation before you complainI want to believe
>>282733462Character exploration with vibes.
>>282732412What makes people think the show about the girl fantasizing about killing herself is a horror/thrillerThat defeats the entire purpose of the genre to want to run into the monsters kek, Idk how it's even possible
>>282732019>Shiomi bridge>Shiori
>>282732019Could Mimi take down Shiori?
>>282733762Close enough
>>282733538>high school is the most fun period of lifeI doubt even 20 out of 20 high-schoolers are happy, it gets even worse in a bigger scale.>n the bet first world country ever! woe is me!I guess we should just skip writing about any media unless it's african kids now.
>>282733538>t. peaked in high school
>>282726565Bretty gud. 3 main girls are all interesting. Mermaid chick is hot. Depressed suicidal mc girl is better than "literally me" isekai #50000 airing this season. Production looks good. Will be sticking around and probably picking up the manga when the season ends
>>282726565It took me a bit to remember that I read the first chapter of it, but never read anymore. It definitely captures the depressed teenager vibe, though admittedly I was nodding off a bit since the story was glacial. I'm liking it so far, though it is a whiplash coming from the high energy summer vibe into this depressing piece.
>>282734010She looks ready for her funeral here.
TanukiGODs, UNITE. Tsubaki will tease the fox until she rapes her.
The tanuki kinda fucks up the atmosphere at times. Like the little faggot alien from Adashima
>>282734036>>282734039there's nukis in this!?
Don't care, fox needs someone to put her in her place.
If you think about it, getting married, giving birth, and becoming a trad wife would solve Hinako's depression
>>282734245what year is it
>>282734244Literally like a solid retarded 20% of all couples think this and fuck up their kids life permanently because their parents think having children fixes their issues magically, it would have been better if they just kys

>>282734640
>>282734529cute flippers
>>282734364My guess is that most fox's fans will be male while most fish's fans will be female
What's the point in watching this when no yuri anime is ever going to get a complete adaptation
>>282734722My guess is that most people who try to predict what gender will like what things are incels or troons and don't go outside enough to actually know who would like what
>>282734862by that logic why watch most anime?
>>282734884>are incels or troons and don't go outside enough to actually know who would like whatyou have to go back
>>282734862Watanare will challenge that by becoming the first yuri fully adapted.
>>282734906Not sure about that but at least it finally break the yuri curse. If it could get an oficial S2 would be great
>>282734888i'm not sure if i should read the uma here as unidentified mysterious animal, or that she's always hungry for delicious hinako

Anybody else that doesn't care about yuri and is watching this for the cannibalism?
>>282735388I didn't know Armie Hammer post on 4chan
>>282734894He is absolute correct, only one type of thing is worried about what gender shit is for
Am I retarded or is Amazon's translation kinda weird? I feel like it flows kinda weirdly. Though they get bonus points for translated OP.
>>282734708me when someone smells like a decaying beached whale
>>282735440Amazon's translation is more direct and more accurate with less localization
>>282735364>fish nugget...cannibalism!?
>>282735440that's what happens when you actually translate japanese instead of transliterate it
>>282735671NTA but that's a whole can of worms by itself, I think if the japanese audience hears a line and feels a certain way about it, a translation should account for that by adapting the wording while trying to not get too wacky if the original doesn't warrant it (especially when it removes character quirks or even foreshadowing).As an example in the extreme opposite, I'm tired of people screenshoting gyaru speak/internet lingo in subtitles like a "gotcha!" moment when the characters are literally spewing brainrot in the japanese original as well. If the character is an annoying zoomer it's fine to throw in some equivalent words from this side of the globe (the same shouldn't be done if the original is subdued though).
>>282735762>plushy has the cute fang tooCUTE

>>282723026It's amazing how this anime with cute girls has two threads exceeding the limit of 500 posts in a single day, while the same anime but with two male MCs had threads that died with less than 60 posts.As someone said in a post on a thread about The Summer Hikaru Died, if the anime had cute girls, everyone on /a/ would watch it
>>282736380I watched Hikaru. Show was fucking great
>>282736380most people prefer lesbians over homos
>>282736380why would I watch a show about two dudes? I'm not fucking gay
>>282736380Difference between SubsPlease and no SubsPlease.
>>282736353She's really fucking dumb in an endearing way.
>>282736353Why doesn't she just take antidepressants
>>282736380I already said it some posts above, but I really liked Hikaru. It was great.
>>282736380>>282736400And the funny thing is that most of the time, stories about boys receive more resources, better publishers, and A-class animation studios, while stories about girls get mediocre resources, mediocre publishers, and experimental B-class animation studios with little experience and fewer than five projects. It's not that their stories are worse. Just look at what Mahoako has achieved, an anime with C-class animation quality that ended up almost sweeping the season.
>>282736624i don't care if they got the best studio in the world with all the worlds best talent working on it, i'm not watching a gay fujo anime about 2 dudesmeanwhile, if an anime has cute girls i don't care how "bad" it looks, i'll watch it
>>282736380I don't like horror, I only watched Otherside Picnic because I liked the author, and still shit my pants watching itMenhera is more up my alley
>>282729811maybe youre right, sad because I like yuri but the pacing might be too slow for me.
>>282736645What if the 2 dudes were dressed as cute girls?
>>282736380It's partially because of the schizo who hates hikaru so much he goes to a bunch of threads and ruins them whenever it gets brought up. Makes it hard to discuss anything about it.
>>282736733that's even gayer
>>282736353yes, and?>>282736380having not seen this at all, i feel like ive heard a lot of buzz about it. im tempted to watch it, too, but i never felt like it was something to compete with. fish is about unity.
>>282723026Watatabe>>Watanare
>>282736380Everyone says it's a good series, but the truth is that /a/ demographic is most male or at least have stereotypical male interests. >>282736454Watanare had no subsplease though.
>>282736380I'm pretty open to any genres, styles, pacing of anime, etc. But Yaoi is line that I'm not willing to cross, homo jokes are fine if they stay in "bro" territory, but outright gay? Nah, it's like a cockroach flying near my face.
