almost time to drink some ramune
AOTS
Subs out
>>283359899About to watchWill check in when I'm doneThank you for your attention in this matter
>4 eps on volume 1So they are gonna end the first cour with Asuka's volume. This will only reinforce anime-onlies' belief that she is the designated winner.
>>283359899Kenta still has a chance to turn this show around
>>283362194>belief that she is the designated winner.>Implying she's not
>>283362247Yotsubest
They're literally both wearing a button down and chinos what the hell
Pits!
IMA NO KIMI NO KOE WA DARE NO KOE NAN DA
JESUS FUCK this is so fucking badly written.The whole thing falls apart because of the comically absurd toon-villains.
>>283362390Yeah, it was cringe in the LN too.
lmao this is hilarious
Does this story have an ending or is it going to go in a circle for 10 years and get canned?
It's true you know. All otaku nerds are evil bullies and all the normies are super nice people who are unfairly judged and discriminated against by them.
I think this is the first time I've ever thought something was cringe unironically
>>283362194I'll believe otherwise when blue stops being literally Anna Yanami who is allowed to be a bit more sexual in her banter because MC isn't a total herbie who would be intimidated by it
At this point, you'd be contemplating if these people are worth keeping in your life.
Made some stitches.
The monologue about love near the end was pretty good I'll give em that. It's a shame you have to struggle through four episodes of pure cringe to get there.
Last stitch.
>mfw it took me 40 minutes to watch this 23 minute episode
>>283362688How is that related to Asuka?
>>283363202because even if waterman does start going out with otter it's not going to work out and he's going to come crawling back to basori
>this is how Japanese writers imagine threatening would be in anime world
>I'm going to reach for the moon.>I'm going to invest on meme stocks.
>he later jumped at the incoming traffic as he makes a wish to be reincarnated into a new life, lead with the perfect story like a clear marble in a lamune bottle
Why does this anime make me cringe so hard?
Can someone do a tl;dr at his last, confusing monologue?Something to do about defining a love before it starts???
>>283363689because it speaks the truth and truth is cringe
Are we sure this isn't supposed to be a parody?I really wouldn't have been surprised if the other people in the cafe all stood up and started clapping after Chitose's speech
I figured Yanami would end up disappointed at the end of her arc because Fuuka is MC's true love, but I didn't expect him to literally apparently get rejected for a date with his beloved senpai and start ranting about fake love on his way to whichever floozy would say yes
I seriously don’t get all the Chitose sucking, he literally looks and acts like your average romcom LN MCIs it explained better in the novels?It’s insane how they suck him off in every single line
This anime reminds me of the visual novel format, with the protagonist's thoughts so present and the different girls that the protagonist visits, etc.
There are literally no fucking highschoolers like this, this feels like a in-anime stage play
>>283362025Forced animation is real... I thought /a/ was just being retarded. Don't bite my head off but it kinda reminds me of Green Green's OP
>>283365283Literally like 99% of school anime characters?
>gay kabedon
Any other non-AI, flesh and blood humans feel like this story was written by an alien? Like it's trying to imitate something but seems to lack, may Allah forgive for uttering this word, a "soul"
Female otaku are the worst. They are money grabbers and ride dicks for attentions.
Hump and dump the blondieFuck and marry Saku neeIgnore nanase
>>283365428Nah, at this point I totally know what author-kun was going for, it's just that the mean /a/non is so far gone that they wouldn't be able to appreciate it if he did anything he was trying to do well
>>283362043>>283362107Kinda weird how hard she seethed at the bimbo giving Kenta attention.
>>283362194>This will only reinforce anime-onlies' belief that she is the designated winner.Yeah, she's pretty much the only reason I haven't picked up the LNs. Apparently per spoilers she even has the overused trope of being his forgotten childhood crush that he only met once.
>>283365856>that he only met onceNot once, they spent a lot of time together when he came to visit his grandma
>>283362688>>283363237https://x.com/amamori_takibi/status/1983202203717513335>Miki is amamori's typeJokes aside, is the LN dialogue in Makeine as cringe as in Chitose?
>>283365989Makeine pretends to be a harem deconstruction but falls into the same shitty pitfall every other attempt does: the shitty milquetoast protagonist
>>283366334I am asking about the cringeness of the dialogueThe banter in chitose doesn't connect, I am wondering if this an adaptation problem or a source one
>>283366334I can forgive the MC in that one since none of the girls really like him and he mostly seems indifferent. He's more like a shepherd for lost sheep.
>>283365418>noooo why are you kabedoning another man instead of me!!!!only time I laughed
What does 2chan think of chitose?
He was the coolest guy
>>283366981Made for high school pregnancy
>>283367073>*steals her boy*
holy humiliation ritual batman, jesus christ
knee socks and thighs erotic
>>283367205he walked himself into it by re-engaging with the asshole friends who were making fun of him
Read vol 2 yesterday. It was actually pretty good, way better than the first volume.
>>283366489>He's more like a shepherd for lost sheepLike the harem protagonist of: 5toubun, or Mayonaka? And I am sure I could think of a lot more titles if I weren't trying to avoid harems.
>>283367151Worst girl, right after the shitty bookworm senpai
>>283363258could it be a worthy successor to the literally me.webm?
>>283367205
>>283367482I thought vol 2 was still kinda bad, especially that fight was cringe. Vol 3 is where things truly started to get good for me.
>>283367675fake rape scene was hot tho
>>283367702one of the cut dialogues was his bully and girlfriend brazenly telling Kenta they were fucking each other while he was sending his text messages
>>283367702>haha you fuck your girlfriend with that mighty cock?damn he burned him really hard
>>283367851He did considering he's still a harem MC and isn't fucking anybody with any cock
I like this show
>I'll just string on and humiliate the perfect friendly blonde that loves me to death Chitose is such a fucking massive faggot holy shit
Why does this show make people so angry?
>>283368962It was over hyped so people are now angry at LN hypers
>>283368962It's written by a failed normalfag
>>283368770Could he make it any more clear that he wants her to hook up with Kenta? There's a reason he chose her to accompany him instead of his backup chick, and that reason is because she's a turboslut who might actually go for it
>>283362654Watch Bunny Girl Senpai, it's more cringe than this
>>283369177Retarded fucking gorilla nigger
>>283369036>It was over hypedI've only heard about it once before it started airing. Doesn't sound like an overhyped show to me.
>>283369209>I've only heard about it once before it started airingThen you're in good companyMy feed spammed me with this shit half a year ago
>>283366981My beautiful wife Yuuko
>>283362390tbfthe metaphors and prose on the inner toughts are well built.But the characters are so stale when the poetics are not there like picrel.However, the soundtrack is doing wonders when the poetics kick in and is whatever when they are not.
>>283369419OUR wife
Thr blonde will be in so much Aislopa NTR porn its unreal
>>283369419>>283369444yours and the entire basketball AND soccer team's, all in one sitting
I don't get this show at all.
blondes.......
>>283369351>My feedYou're doing something wrong, and you only have yourself to blame.
>>283369036All lns are bad so no one should be surprised
>>283370163nahLN fags made this buzz on the community because it won a big award on JOP land without an anime compared to the previous winners.However, i remember a lot of LN fags could not stand Chitose as the protagonist so it wasn't all positive.
>>283369471Honestly can't wait, her design is amazing and I'll blow more than enough times to her tight body getting plowed
>>283371577>my feed>the communityI literally only have here, youtube channels that I specifically subscribed to (none of which are about anime because I find the concept of english-language anitube to be disgusting), and literal ads to make up the entirety of information I see that I didn't ask for by specifically searching for it, so if you were compelled to watch this by someone even though you personally weren't very interested then it's your own fault
cringe kino
>>283367482>>283367675>It gets good 5 episodes in
>>283371815More like you missed /ln/ threads when they were a thing /here/.No need to sperg to justify your hermit habits.
>>283362476Would've been AOTS if Kenta started chatting him up instead
>>283372775Why would you lurk /ln/ unless you already know what kind of stories are dominant in the light novel genre and are interested in more of that?
>>283369197I thought that was alright, this show is cringe.
>>283369197you're just jealous because you're not brave enough to publicly embarrass yourself to help a girl out like Mai-san no Sakuta
I'm not getting the message, so shit people turn out to be shit people and this is somehow your problem? And the "solution" is for Chad Thundercock to come to the rescue? I mean the second one seems fair but making it seem related to a personal growth issue seems nonsensical, what did lil bro learn here...
>>283369197I find that very hard to believe.
>>283373240You have to accept that shit people exist and choose not to engage with them or let their words affect you, and if you find yourself agreeing with the comments they make in bad faith, then you ought to change that thing about yourself that clearly bothers you more than it does themi.e. clean your room
>>283366334He's actually consistently capable of holding long conversations with the female characters, which puts him above 90% of anime protagonists.
Shan't be watching this. I will never forgive them for what they did to the blonde.
I've watched anime about guys who became their neighbor's pet dog with more believable dialogue than thisseriously wtf is wrong with author-kun?
>>283373407Aren't oregairu clones offshoots of 'gataris where MC isn't complete spaghette and is able to help the girls but isn't a vampire and doesn't have a girlfriend and just comes off as rude to them for no reason?
>>283373048>unless you already know what kind of stories are dominant in the light novel genreSorry for anons not developing telepathy so they can know what are the current popular ln without interacting with the community.
>>283374295it's not like it's ever going to change
>>283362549the author said that volume 6 was the end of the first half of the story, so i wanna believe he has a concrete plan
Vol.3 will start around ep8-9, possibly ep10 at this pace, if an anime requires most of the first cours to even get close to become tolerable or "good", then this is a failed story. The only thing it has going for it right now is the character designs and some of the voice acting, the story is so bad and the dialogues and monologues leave you disappointed so much, it's just trash. Pretend-Oregairu/Pretend-Rascal Does Not Dream garbage.
>>283374636cour 2 is already announced which means it's already mostly made and this would have to bomb very very hard for them to just write it off, and the chances of that happening are less since it's going to finish up with best girl's arc
>>283374487Not only there is Chitose but last year was makeine.Then there is kusuriya and watanare who are not isekai.It does at slow pace but it change from time to time. Like The Detective Is Already Dead is actually dead after the anime.
>>283374727yeah the LN is popular enough in Japan to keep it going, but the story is pretty pathetically bad.
>>283374763your mom is pretty pathetically bad
>>283374636it's not like at volume 3 it becomes a completely new story, if you didn't like it in the first volume then just drop it.
>>283369197Bunny Girl is fine outside of that one scene at the train station but that one scene is an all time incredibly cringe scene
>>283374917that one scene is actually excellent in context and the trolls trying to make it out to be something else are obviously doing so in bad faith because RRRG would never physically defend a woman's honor and would rather get cucked by Kaiki
>>283369197bunny girl senpai's dialogues are fantastic even if some aspects of the story are cringe. the wordplay in japanese is beautifully written, and the dub also tries its best to keep up.
chitosebros, I'm reading volume 7 and fuck! what's up with this cute kouhai, is she actually gonna cuck the older girls and revenge iroha?
>>283373240>so shit people turn out to be shit people and this is somehow your problem?Dont generalize everyone as the same shit they threw at your face before (just look at "the bad chads" they were introduced before); Dont cry over something you did not lost in the first place (since the otaku princess did not like him then he never had a first love at the end) and aim to the moon without looking back.
Going to be honest with you. The only heroines I like are the blonde one and the one with the twintails who wears a pink scrunchie. Will either of them win?
>>283375311No. Don't waste your time on this garbo
>>283374636it gets good after season 3 episode 15 bro, just be patient!
proof that you can have a good studio, high level expensive at least b-tier and above voice actors, fantastic character designs and decent-enough animation, but if your story/plot/writing/dialogues suck and cringe, the rest of it can't quite redeem it.
>>283362194>designated winnerI haven't gotten around to the newest episode but so far, I don't even feel like this is a romance theme series. Focusing on helping the otaku fag just makes me assume the MC is just gonna go around helping outcast from the school when the homeroom teacher tells him to look into a troubled student.
Im watching the first episode. Short hair girl is splashing with kids in a river.What the fuck is this show. Does the MC have flaws or something bad about him?
>>283375665nah it devolves into typical haremshit just like oregairu did. this ain't no bunny senpai
>>283369197not even remotely
>>283375734>this ain't no bunny senpaiHow is that? I thought that was haremshit
>>283375839rascal does not dream/bunny senpai/santa clause has one main male character and many female characters that he helps out, but he's dating the first one from the very first volume until the end, never devolves into haremshittery. if you call it harem, then you'd have to call something like kaguya-sama harem too given the number of girls that are around miyuki.
Is there an upcoming massive twist or development (like Chitose being schizophrenic) that recontextualizes everything that has happened so far, or is this just going to continue being a farce?Everyone in this is an absurd caricature or just a mouthpiece for the author to spew his half-baked truisms and meme advice. All of the ramblings are clearly aiming for something deep and poetic, but they just make the MC look megalomaniacal and make his harem look like a cult. Genuinely, who is this for and where is it coming from? It feels like the author is an AI or was homeschooled and only heard about popularity and relationships secondhand from other people.
before the next dumbposter makes their post, can you first describe verbatim what happened in the episode, that way you can answer your dumb questions before posting them?
>>283375839>>283375868Having a cast of female orbiters that all want MC's cock is generally considered harem even if MC doesn't give it to them.Luckily I can enjoy harem so this isn't a problem for me, idk why people are so allergic to the classification.
>>283376107there has to at least be the option that MC would possibly do anything with them for it to be a harembut then again using that definition basically everything with the standard herbivore MC is disqualified...
>>283376107gatari kind of muddled the definition with ragi's "it only counts if there's penetration" attitude towards cheating; nobody calls Haruhi a harem
>>283376091>what happened in the epsiodeOtakuloser went to meet with his old group for a humiliation ritual and it turns out they were cartoonish assholes. Otakuloser gets saved by Chadtose who is so inherently Chad that the assholes don't dare insult him, but instead say that he's too cool to be friends with otakuloser. Chadtose gives a chunni speech about reaching for THE MOON which is for some reason taken seriously, and then everybody clapped and now Otakuloser has been cured of social trauma by beeeing himself.
You can complain all you want, but the niponese love this thing. It even got to that sugoi ranking's hall of fame before getting an anime.
>>283376107there are far too many examples of a school based romance with too many female characters and one or two male characters, most of them are not harems. bunny senpai is not a harem. neither was haruhi, or kaguya, or alya, or toradora, not even SAO was a harem.
>>283376066>Genuinely, who is this forIt's for self-unaware losers, obviously.
>>283376066This show has got to go on to show it's all a facade, right? All the perfection stuff is just too on the nose. I have a hard time believing someone could sincerely write that stuff without planning to deconstruct it. Maybe I'm just no longer capable of sincerity idk.
>>283376066>>283376438your question is literally answered in-text, maybe you should get subtitles in your language, or bother to read them
>>283376358There's a difference between multiple females existing and multiple females who expressly want to fuck MC orbiting, sometimes it's somewhere in the middle of that spectrum and those stories can be arguable either way.SAO has Kirito get a girlfriend at the beginning sure, but I think most people would consider it harem and I would agree.
>>283376457The text answered if this will continue being a farce? When?
>>283376539that's not your actual question and you know it, because you wouldn't ask it if you had a proper comprehension of this story and these characters and their motives and how they reflect the author's intent
>>283376457>>283376555To be fair the show cuts out all of Saku's thoughts so it's much less obvious to secondaries that he's insecure as all fuck. It wasn't really well done in the LN and it's being completely butchered in the anime, and you trying to defend what's objectively not very well written subtext is hard to watch.
>>283376587who said anything about trying? tell these retards to go back to the kanokari thread
>>283376438I feel exactly the same way and have no issues with being sincere, the way this is written just reeks of either setting up a subversion...or being colossally retarded. A moment that stuck out to me was when he was in Kenta's room hyping him up and he yelled "sell your soul to me!" which of course could just be taken at the surface level of a joke, but part of me hoped it was setting up him being like a demon or something.
>>283376457I think you will have to learn to deal with the fact that some of us are anime only, and are judging it based on the anime alone, which has not done a very good job so far. The only moment so far that the main character tried to depict he and his friends as less than perfect was those two or three lines where he essentially said "actually being super popular is hard too" lol. I have not given up on the show though. Based on what I've gleaned from other people posting, it seems I'll get what I'm looking for.
>>283376784I'm animeonly too, I'm just smart and can read
>>283376587Even as a secondary, Saku being insecure underneath actually seems fairly obvious, but that doesn't really make the social dynamics and interactions between other characters around him any less retarded. Chadtose's mask isn't the problem, it's moreso the world around him and how it responds to this character. It's more than hard to believe, it's completely surreal.
>>283376555>that's not your actual questionYes it is, but why don't you tell me what you think my actual question is so I can address that instead of continuing this seething routine?
I want Chitose to rape me
I want yuko to kabedon me
>>283367504*best notAoi is just too based for you
>>283377499People calling Yuzuki an Aoi clone are in for a rude awakening when they realize she's a fake psychopath and yearns for the cringe.
My boy Kenta better plap that blonde pussynot like chadtose minds
>>283365796literal below room temp iq
>>283362940He should have simply gotten up, walked away, make them foot the bill and go on to live le silent achiever lifestyle. Guess kids really do lack the 'bigger picture' mindset of life to do this, except for Mary King Sue of course.>>283363801TRVKE
>>283377529Sounds like an Aoi clone
>>283377687This shit was so bad, did they really need to make the social outcast comically evil?
>>283377785yeah, that way MC could physically threaten him without being problematic and losing face
>>283376793>I'm animeonly too, I'm just smart and can readt. chitose
>>283377529>she's a fake psychopath and yearns for the cringeso exactly like Aoi?
>>283377687>Otaku group>Neither girl nor boys are otakuWhy didn't he detect the normalfags? is he stupid?
>>283377940She dressed goth style she's a certified otaku
>>283377932>>283377726I don't know maybe it's just because I stopped reading Tomozaki after the Fuukajerk volume but that is not the impression I got from Aoi. Or rather it's like Aoi wants to not be a psychopath but physically can't, at least early on.Yuzuki is saying she wants the genuine in her own narration literally starting volume 2 which is where we're at in the adaptation, she's just scared and embarrassed to open up.
They went to some pretty crazy lengths just to be a petty asshole to a random guy.
>>283378351catfishing losers on messaging apps used to be a thing even years ago, I should know, I was a victim of one and had a similar humiliation ritual, not as extreme thoughI imagine it's even more prevalent now
If he is a chad, why does he not have a GF?
The King is everybody's King, he would cause a massive bitchfight if he officially took a gf. It would not be beautiful.
>>283375722His flaw is he is too much of a chad.
>>283378716The king has a right for concubines, monogamy is for cucks
>>283376736>but part of me hoped it was setting up him being like a demon or something.>Supernatural shit after a whole ass episode of normal drama"muh subversive story" faggots are as bad as the characters on this holy shit.Is due faggot like you we had flops like Turkey! last season.
>>283378843Turkey was AOTC compared to this crap
>>283378856Not even with hardcore JOP otakus which rated lower than cuckoos' second season.They were expecting an actual anime about bowling. Just cute girls bowling.
I went to HS with a guy like Chitose. Legit chill guy, super popular, nice to everyone including the nerds. That was over 2 decades ago, though. Do guys like that really not exist anymore, or are you all just a bunch of pissy faggots like Kenta was?
>>283378716I rather have one true heart than a hundred wandering ones, otherwise you are just the typical harem guy who is scared of comittment because of the consequences and the work you would need to put afterwords.
>>283378843>Supernatural shit after a whole ass episode of normal dramaIt has happened before, Medaka Box for example.
This feels so fake, everyone feels like a caricature
>>283365989amamori's dialogue works because it's a comedy and a drama second
>>283378890bowling is very important and it's essential role in dealing with forced familial roles, suicide, and the problem of evil are all necessary aspects of the bowling journey.
>>283374999I just couldn't get over the technobabble hurdle once I noticed they have no idea what they're saying, just spewing words in an attempt to understand what ever magic has befuddled them.
