New episode of AOTS soon
wait did Paru escape CG hell?
>>283092217Is that a boy or a girl?
>>283092768It's sex
>>283092217Another strange choice of time of day, it didn't look like it happened in the evening, maybe during sunset
>>283092672Nobody believes in furry bucks in Japan
>>283092768it's a "draw a boy call it a girl"
>>283094282Sex with insane girls.
>>283094282fuyucute
>rackam from gbf ojisanMale cast for this show is top tier.
Can she stop trying to suicide bomb for one second?
>>283094336
>>283092217HOLY GODTIER ADAPTION
>>283092217You misspelled Mugen Gacha.
Another good episode, might actually be my aots if it's consistent to the end.
>>283094419>>283094458>>283094572Absolute perfect scene
I don't like the artstyle but still like the animuh
>>283094120Not really, just a gloomy lanky girl
>>283094889>I don't like the artstyleKINO
>>283094934with the most masculine shoulder to hip ratio in the show
>>283093041oh my fuck
>>283093041Sanda in the timeline where it looked good.
subs are OUT
FUCK SANTA
cute!
I see what you're doing here. They showed minor damage after this, only a few lamps,
>tfw 174cmshe's so big
>we could have gotten beastars adapted like this but it came too early in her career
Was it her voice?
>sanda can detect naughty kids (liars) by somehow causing the universe to just make things fall over when in his presence that's a pretty useful power
>ono is deadyeah fucking right i see that book falling , who said that
ow
Damn, those subs are such ass
>they found ono already>just chilling in a random classroom alone at nightwell, that was fast, anime over pack it up guys
>you should wear red at a kids funeral because it's meant to be a happy send off ...alright then
she's obsessed with wearing suicide jacketswas she a member of the taliban in a past life or something???
>so caught in the moment of imagined teen love he totally ignored sanda talking about the santa curse being broken, even though he's meant to be hunting for santa what a wholesome guy
>go to school>get shothey this is supposed to be japan, not america!
where is erai?
>>283096594fuck knows, just download toonshub or varyg
Reverse traps are back baby! LETS FUCKING GOOOO!!
>>283096455Her father is a destructive cult leader
your true tomboy girlfriend
>>283096959do you really need 4 screwdrivers to make bombs?
Good episode
>>283097004If you have only a can of screws dismantled from Apple\Nintedo products - sure
Is this Parus self insert?
>>283096898literally me
>>283097074Absolutely without a doubtThere has never been more of a self insert
>>283096959>I lied I don't have netflix>Take off your shoes, we're making homemade bombs
>>283097148Time's up, that's it!Make bombs, not sex.
Next chance to tell will be after +50 chapters
>>283096094Yeah, it was Kazao's voice, who lied about Ono, it's a little sad that Paru forgets such details
so what he's Jack Frost or something?
>>283097737I guess originally he was Huntsman and Fuyumura - Snow White, but the story was retconed at some point, so we never know
>>283097737He's the best character
>>283096583>hurr durr, muh school shootings in burgerlandgo away
Can't believe they allow faggotry when the country is literally dying out...
>>283098509>playing patty cake with your bro is "gay"just how fragile are you
>>283098509To be fair is impossible to tell who is a girl or a boy in this.
>>283098509I love it when skilled animators redraw wonky art, like Mob Psycho 100 or this one. The manga just looks weird, and sometimes bad, this is nice to look at.
>>283097074Kinda. She is, but Paru also has several more self inserts for different stages of her life in this story.
this looks like literal fucking garbage lmao, on top of it the synopsis makes it look like some pretentious shit too. Hard pass!
>>283094572ENTER
>>283097737this >>283098166he literally never stops getting better as the story goes on
>>283100284>first appearance is him shooting a childwe can only go up from here
>>283092217I like the art, but the premise, the whole story is ridiculous!Santa Claus? Seriously.
>>283100465It's more about how to deal with the responsibility and become an adult without banal phrases from spiderman movie
>>283100570The guy turns into a superhero Saint Nic, I don't think I can take it seriously. Shit cracks me up, simple as.
>>283094282Protect this smile?
From the sound of it, the headmaster thinks Ono is dead for real so I guess he might not be in on it.
>>283098551That's the best part, you fool!All girls should be easily mistakable for twinks
>>283094175>>283094140They seem like very good friends.
>>283100887the kind of very good friends who have wet dreams about each otherheadmaster would be ashamed, they bring shame to their nation
>>283094282We have to protect this smile
>>283100887Ono was her only friend, and as it often happens, she befriended a gloomy girl for questionable motives
>>283094282I get it now, Sanda. I didn't at first, but now I understand. MUST PROTECT THIS SMILE
>>283097074Pic related in ep2 is probably the most obvious sign of Paru self inserting as Fuyumura, she was doing the same shit with Haru back in Beastars.Fuyumura being tall doesn't matter because she stills gets absolutely towered by 3 meter tall Santa. She definitely has a things for heigh difference and either huge or lanky men.>streamingYeah I know im leeching my seasonal torrents like a fag and wanted to get a quick screengrab
>>283103540whoops
>>283092217The piano music in this episose was really tense.Very soulful anime.
>>283103590All girls want this
>>283103854Indeed, but Paru wants specifically Santa Claus and/or beastmen to do this to her.
>>283103809Yeah solid production all around.
>>283092217I’m digging the art. What is this? Is it good?
She didn’t have to do this to him
>>283104040It’s interesting so far, I need more of the plot to kick in before I can say.
>>283104040if I remember correctly the story goes nowhere. adaptation looks solid though.
>>283104134If it has a solid first arc like Beastars, I’ll be hopefully enough for the anime.
>>283095943cute frog
I am masturbating to Fuyu again.
>>283096898Based ojisan.
>>283098437They only happen there so yeah.
>>283098437yesit happens all the timeshut the fuck about it NOT being a thingits on the new almost every fucking daydont be fucking coy faggot
>>283104525not even strictly true but safer than a homemade bomb which is what the japs are forced to use because owning a precision tool for self-defense is le bad
>>283096314Amazon subs seem to be universally terrible, it happens with every single one of their shows.Genuinely worse than the ESLs over at Bilibili.
Bad art seems to run in the family eh
>>283098762>redraw wonky art,????>The manga just looks weird, and sometimes badYou really don't understand art, maybe some action scenes at the beginning of the story, but not the rest
>>283100465>>283100570>>283100635You are too obvious
>>283104134>>283104231Do you people don't understand what stories are? or you can only accept the robotic stuff made by committee?
>>283100887>>283101023>>283101113I think this is a very oversimplification of their relationship, they both are mindfucked because the adults did a terrible job at letting them be normal kids.
The character design/art style looks really familiar? Is it that beastars author? I can't place it.
>>283104931Baki has extremely good art, literally everyone in the industry knows this.
>>283105323>Is it that beastars author?Yes, it is.
>>283105323>>283105349STOP
>>283105244oh no! someone doesn't like a thing I like! they just don't know what thing is!
>>283105383More like, "there is no way you can't understand a simple story like this, just because it doesn't follow the common tropes"
>>283105355>STOPThe fuck is your problem?
>>283105336I was about to reply to this but nowaday I can't tell who is playing along or who isn't...
>>283105244Why was my comment included, it was hopeful?
>>283092619What kind of budget is required for a seasonal anime to look THIS fucking good?Literally a work of art in motion
>>283104040It's a Christmas story about growing up and growing old, and how it affects people around you. Or at least that's what I got from it being halfway through the manga.
How can she be so fucking flat yet instill a primal urge to breed in me?
>The cut on Sanda is shaky camera showing Yagiuda realizing he's Santa and about to shoot him, actively being watched, whereas Fuyumura's is static and normal.Holy kino direction>>283092217So far it's AOTS for me too, great adaptation so far. Not the best season in the world but there are some other shows I like so it might get some competition later if other stuff gets good but I'm too in love with the Itagaki bloodline and their style of writing.
She's so fucking perfect I love her so much. I need to have sex with this flat sexless sticc of a woman. It's a shame I'm just barely taller than her.>>283106001The last adaptation I remember looking this good was Wakagimi a few seasons ago. Not only is it brilliantly animated and directed they did a fantastic job adapting Itagaki's art style to animation.>>283094282I want to protect this smile.
>>283095996Actually not as freakishly tall as I was expecting.
>>283106218It is absolutely freakish for a Japanese female
>>283106218182cm puts her on basically the same level as the national male average for The Netherlands which is 183. For a Japanese 14 year old girl that's absurdly tall. Even for European 14 year old girl, 182 is massive.
>>283106224>>283106243Yeah but it's the classic situation of "Japanese tall" where yeah, they're tall, but not THAT tall outside Japan.
>>283106265Anon, a 182cm/6 foot tall high school girl is extremely tall anywhere on earth.
>>283106265>but not THAT tall outside Japan.A 14 yo girl being 182cm is considered tall everywhere, you're a fucking retard.
>>283106274>>283106287I've met taller. When you look at her next to all the other characters I was expecting freakshow 6'2" minimum
>>283106168>WakagimiLMAO noDid you miss the fucking terrible 3DCG in nearly every episode or something?
>>283106265Good thing they're in Japan and not the Netherlands, right anon?
>>283106287It's always Europeans experiencing culture shock that make those comments, they do this all the time. They can't really help it
>tfw troonslators will localize every little nuance but never convert metric to burger units:(Why do they force us to whip out a calculator whenever we need to know how tall someone is?
>>283094621absolutely adorable. I'm hooked. Excited to see what the rest of this series has to offer.
>Oshibu's themes consist of slowed down or sped up Spanish guitar>For a guy who's fighting style mainly consists of using a thin fencing-like bladeSoul
>>283105583>I was about to reply to this but nowaday I can't tell who is playing along or who isn't...But is literally the true
>>283094572ENTER BEST BOY
>>283106001science saru have been doing excellent work recently, god knows how they pull it off
>>283093041Ruined
>>283106056>How can she be so fucking flat yet instill a primal urge to breed in me?dfc is justice
>>283094282>tfw he asked for a peg
>>283094282How do you get girls to look at you like this?
>>283094282She cute but best girl will always be better
>>283098762How will this guy look?
>>283106371>Did you miss the fucking terrible 3DCG in nearly every episode or something?It works in the show
>>283106407Now that you mention it, I can’t remember the last anime that did that but I feel like I’ve seen it before.
>>283108494Nta but all I remember is the horse episode and maybe seeing clearly cg horses again later.
>>283105323>>283105349It still feels like I'm watching humanized Beastars characters
>subtitles changing "red cloaks" to "st nick capture unit"Just completely write yourself into a corner for no reason, why don't you.
>>283104040Same here, got hooked up on the art (it's great), the premise is super silly, but the show is pretty interesting and I don't think I'll be dropping it.Worth checking out (only 3 eps currently out) at the least.
>>283103590>>283103854Don't we all?>>283105207Two of those are me and how can I be "too obvious" if I speak of what's on me mind?
>>283108439They already made him fat in the episode 2 reveal, when in the manga he didn't have a final design yet so his silhouette was lanky like Fuyumura.(They also cut out Ooshibu calling him by his name for some reason)
>>283108609With the mouth and eyes I can see that
>>283108713Damn that is a bad change.
>>283108898They also had Yagiuda use "he" in the inner monologue about the Santa he fought in the past. The subs are really coming off as being made by someone with no research in the source material, or else they'd have kept the line ambiguous (like it is naturally in Japanese).
>>283105207You are too insane
>>283094419just a fleshwound.
>>283104525Breivik.
>>283108713Damn, it just sounds stupid
>>283104894It was a notable things with Gundam Gquuuuuux that it actually had good subs that's how bad they are normally.
>>283105336nah the new wave of anime fans hate art for shows like this or call of the night and consider it bad because it looks different. We have entered back into the era of everything that didnt look like SAO is considered bad.
>>283109708Actually, it was a flesh wound
>>283106218>>283106265>>283106287that is giant for a women most women are under 175cm. Movies and shows with irl actors often make the girls look taller then they are. That combined with sports give people a really wrapped view.
>>283094934Girls like this always wear the most girly panties thats how you tell.
Girls shouldnt be wearing pants instead of skirts.
>>283108439Massive
>>283108439He looks like the chud.
>>283110687Are you sure?
>>283109121Isn't shitty underpaid-by-the-word barrel scraper just churning through scripts the stereotype for anime sub writers? Expecting them to dig into the source material and plan ahead like each series is a Project or something seems pretty optimistic.
24 episodes
>>283111081Really? Very strange choice, they cover like 3 chapters per episode, so 24 episodes will end up around the cemetery fight
Is this story less of a disappointing clusterfuck than Beastars?
>>283111421It's disappointing, but on the bittersweet side, like some cool things, characters, and lines were abandoned, + epilogue that is not that bad but not that great, and just look like some one-shot from Paru that was added to fill the volume
>>283104041She'll regret
Are we getting the HUG next ep?
>>283109351artist?
>>283113672100%
>>283111081i could see them splitting into 2 12 ep cours like dandadan did and have a 6 month or so break inbetween, but i feel like cour 1 is definitely ending on the resolution of the Coming-of-Age festival stuff
>>283106056
>>283111421is literally her best work, is really good
>>283113835https://x.com/rabbits_no/status/1979237603833508092
>>283114391>herDropped
>>283092217When does it get good?
>>283116351 Never. It's always unhinged author fetish trash. It's a Paru work either you're entertained by balls to the walls unchained things or you aren't.
>>283116351If the first 3 episodes failed to get your attention then don't even bother.
>>283116351Watch at least the next episode, if you still don't like it, you won't like it.
>16 Volumes (Complete)>Completely Scanlated?>NoHuh?
>>283094934Lanky girls still have recognizable female traits. Fuyumura looks like a fucking alien when she gets naked.
>>283117902is this your first series?
So Sanda knew he was santaclaus, or was Santa an "spirit" than lived rent free on his body hiding?
>>283118209During Sanda's first transformation he states he thought the curse was gonna die with him. He already knew about the curse and was deliberately avoiding wearing red things.
>>283118267Yes.. but then later, on Sanda´s monologues seemed that he didn´t knew about him, and says that Santa´s awakening made him mature.
>>283118267>>283118351Not to mention that in this episode, Sanda refers to Santa as another person.
>>283118351What I understood is that he knows his family has a curse because he knows he is Santa's descendant, but doesn't know anything about Santa at all otherwise.
Is Kazao Paru's self insert like Haru was?
>>283117902There are a few chapters left, and they are like a timeskip epilogue
>>283118699Sorta, but it's more like what a person she wanted to be - a small, cheeky brat who uses her cuteness as a weapon, and she works like a writer's avatar: she knows too much, she appears in key moments, she's a troublemaker, and really doesn't have a proper place in this story up to the end
>>283092217Bump
>>283120606Fuckable little bitch.
>>283109351This skeleton is weak to father figures
Was Sanda's mother a badass actually old woman or a badass old woman (27)?
>>283092217holy cute
>>283121844Spoiler: Both. She is now a badass old woman (old) who becomes a badass old woman (27) when transforming
I like the stupid Katamari ED.
>>283105189>You really don't understand artAh, the classic. I thought only /co/ excused Chainshitman tier art
>>283109351I haven't been this turned on by a skeleton since Kanamori
>>283122827>Chainshitman tier artThe heck?
It'd be kinda funny if Sanda was still a 14 year old when he transformed. Therefore you have this cute 14 year old doing manly shit and trying to be Santa Claus.Maybe his super form is old-Santa
>>283092217I honestly hoped we got an anime adaption of Bota Bota (Drip Drip), but then again, it works as maybe a film
>>283094282Honestly amazing how she looks cute in the anime but horrifying in the manga.
>>283115112I exclusively watch animes written by women.
>>283126726Same, they usually have the hottest girls.
>>283092217Himbo shota slop for fujos and trooms.>>283092768It's trans.
>>283119475Her place is best girl and winner
>>283129638And that’s how you can tell Hyodo is Paru’s true self-insert.
>>283106056Because even the most dominate men still love oneeshota.
>>283104691there's no comparison to the number of shootings in america
>>283118209>>283118351>>283118400He knew he was a descendant of Santa Claus. His mom also has a Santa transformation and throughout his childhood she told him about reindeer descendants and other stuff. He just never wanted to be Santa so he did everything he could so his powers would never activate until Fuyumura forced them to come out.
>>283131054>oneeshotaThey're the same age.
>>283132578It’s about size not age.
>>283118209santa is an ancestral spirit that empowers and influences him
>>283093041Perfect
>>283128619I wouldn't call this a win
>>283122994
This is not a training alarm! There is an attack going on outside, everyone is to take up the defense positions!
I have yet to watch episode 3, but from the first two I watched, I really don't know if I like this or not.Hopefully episode 3 helps me decide.I mostly decided to give this a try because science saru had been doing a fantastic job with adaptations recently.
>>283132937>It’s about size not age.you fucking retard
