>>284598302I can't believe they missed the opportunity to have the anime end on the 24th or 25th
:3
>>284600115They may not have had a broadcast slot then. Or they may have assumed that too big a chunk of their audience will be out getting blotto drunk then.
>>284600125Episode saved!

>show is pure soul>was completely ignoredI want season 2...
>>284600581>was completely ignoredthat's what happens when your anime isn't on crunchyroll
>>284600581Stupid plotShitty MCNot enough lolis
>No, this woman is dead

>>284600872anon...
>>284600969b-bro? i'm watching right now, she's fine r-right!?
seems like yaguida has given up on capturing him entirely and settled squarely into a comedic mentor role
>have you SEEN santa's cock? that thing is hugewhat the FUCK yaguida
rhombus
she won
>>284601022he was trying to be a bro, knew that :3 was probably upset about being ditched and was throwing Sanda a bone so he could thrower HER a bone
!
>>284598302Is that a pedophile
>she finally said itholy yuri
>>284601195that's a grown man who sneaks into the rooms of kids to leave them a special surprise so while you may think that is a pedophile, there's actually nothing strange about it because that's santa claus

>ONO IS DEAD YOU FRAUD>FUCK SANTAi mean i get it, but there's no need to take it out on sandathe fuck was he supposed to do huh, it was entirely her fault for falling asleep
;_;
give your skeleton a hug for christmas
That's how it fucking ends? Oshibu just pushes him off a roof, literally nothing happens and he goes back to the school? And the Ono who we were lead to believe died last week just about manages to actually survive for an extra few minutes to really die in Fuyumura's arms as one extra gut punch? Bit of a shit final ep
Pretty great show, shame about this lackluster final episode. Really stellar animation and music. I can also confidently say this is one of the weirder anime I've watched which is saying something.Unfortunately it did convince me to read the manga, despite being told it does literally everything wrong that Beastars did wrong, and the second half of that manga pissed me off unlike anything else.
>>284600261
>>284600125wife
Best girl survived and that's what matters
>>284601152At least somebody saved Christmas this year.
>>284601635This is chapter 40+ out of 150+, not even halfway there.
>>284602292yeah but the finale still felt like a wet fart
>>284598302The episode was overall a little shaky (the first half especially), but I still liked the overall conclusion. And on the whole this was my favourite show this season (...out of this and Ranma, though it's not like Ranma is bad either). I'd like to see more.
I'm the first one to say "the sillier the better" but I couldn't stand this one, I tried but I simply didn't have a good time here.
What do you want Saru to adapt next?
Sanda is a huge improvement over Beastars.
Good episode
>>284602845Kurayami Dance.
>>284602845Fire punch still hasn't been announced.
>>284602554The show became completely directionless once Ono came back. It feels like nothing has happened since those episodes.
It kinda ended abruptly but great show regardless. I had fun
>>284603419>Story becomes completely directionless once the preliminary conflict gets resolved.Sounds familiar...how odd...
Ugliest show of the season
>Not an ending, just the end of the episode like nothing happens.Are they gonna animate the rest of the story... right?
>>284603855lolno. I think this was clearly a passion project, not like Dandadan wans't also a "passion project" but I can't imagine anybody at Saru expected this to keep the lights on, presumably they just wanted to animate it, and animate it well, because they liked the manga a lot and thought they could make it exciting.Also definitely zero chance since Science Saru is already really fucking busy for the forseeable future (GITS, the Mongolian witch show, Dandadan S3) so if they ever do decide to do more of Sanda it probably won't be until 2028 or something ridiculous.
>>284600574noyou're just retarded
>>284603419Don't watch anime in 2x speed dumbass.
>>284601324THEN WHY THE FUCK DO THEY HAVE BEDS IF SLEEPING IS FATAL?!
>>284603960Man Ono was so cute acting all kid like again.
>>284604139to stay cozy when they lie awake all night
fuck i was hoping it was 24 episodes
>>284604139I feel like the setting was made up as Saru went along
>>284604261*paru
>>284604139"Here, have this loaded gun. I need you to keep it to your temple all night. Keep your finger on the trigger at all times, but don't pull it or you'll die."Seems legit.
Can't wait for ep13 on christmas
>>284605537bwo
That didn't seem like a finale at all.
>>284604261As usual, Paru just kind of flies by the seat of her pants.
Where do I start at the manga to keep the story going?
>>284604139It's not we see Fuyumura sleep all the time.Basically Ono was a freak accident due to bad reaction to drugs
>>28460614244
>>284600189I think I love old antagonists. I love dudes like Hyoudou, Washizu, En, Drosselmeyer, Kinzo Ushiromiya, Satou, Zetsu Daidan, Jonas Backstein etc., not to mention the many cool white-haired evil wizards and vampires from fantasy books and movies. I want more villains that are 40+ and preferably Fukumoto villain age.
>>284600296They better do. It was my aots together with Gnosia. When did people stop caring about action anyway? I swear only the most boring daily life shit is hyped these days.
>>284607421>It was my aots together with Gnosiamah nig
Yuri is dead, truly the best Christmas present, Sanda literally saved Christmas? Was it poetry? You bet!
>>284607421>no Kamen Rider to round out the triumvirateso close anon, so close.
Do you think Paru desired to fuck Santa Claus when she was a kid?
>>284607628She's gone on record as saying she has a Santa fetish.
>>284607628That is quite literally the only reason this manga exists
>>284601782Same. I hope the "bad" part of Sanda already happened because I like it a lot so far. Cannot imagine it being as dumb as Beastars last third though, I guess I just hope for the best when I read the rest. Still wish they would animate the rest of the manga, the adaption was top tier.
>>284602305>>284602554>>284603419>>284608241You people don't understand that stories exist to create works like this, this is story telling
>>284608821You're just saying an empty platitude for no reason. I don't even agree with what they're saying exactly but I don't think you even know what you're trying to say.
>>284608841Stories exist so people can understand the rules of reality and play with them
>>284608241i've not read much into the manga, but as a mostly animeonly is seems the magic had a lot to do with Saru. They've hit it out of the park this year, I'm so hyped for GitS
>>284608857Who fucking gives a shit if the story fucking sucks though? Once again I disagree that this stuff felt directionless, but you replied to this guy too >>284608241 and he's 100% right, who gives a fuck if the author wanted to "bend the rules of reality" in Beastars if the second half is fucking shit and the entire last volume is basically unreadable garbage?
>takes a nap>dieswtf
So is Ono already actually dead or just comatose or something?
>>284604139The bigger question is what they're doing all night. Not being allowed to leave your (PC-less) room and lie around for 8h+ sounds like torture.
>>284607952>furry>santa claus>humanized pitbull>headless ghostGenuinely curious to see what else she's sexually attracted to when she makes her next manga.
Why do state-mandated girlfriends always win? It's not fair!
>>284608895the logic is>most human growth happens while sleeping>in this society kids have been conditioned and fed drugs so they never sleep to slow their growth rates as much as possible>when Ono fell asleep, her body tried overcompensating and getting all that growth down as soon as possible>now her body is being destroyed by these massive growth spurts putting unbearable strain on her bones and muscles >this leaves her painfully exhausted all the time and her natural instinct is to sleep and recover, but that's just making the problem worse>eventually the pain and internal damage gets so bad that she goes into shock and diesbut really it's a ham-fisted allegory for how stunting children's development in the name of 'protecting their innocent' destroys their ability to grow up into healthy adults, turning them into twisted pedomaniacs obsessed with their own lost youth and the youth of others instead, hence the principal suddenly recognizing himself in Ono and saying he'd love to chat over a few drinks with her last ep
>>284609685it just feels like pure bullshit when fuyumura has been sleeping fine this entire time and nothing happened to her
>>284609685You're telling me they couldn't just put her in a medically induced coma or some shit for a real til her shit straightened out? Painkillers don't exist? They have the technology to delay growth for this long but they have no "antidote" or anything if it ever goes wrong?
>>284609775its clumsily handwaved somewhere early on that what the kids do isn't real sleep and is more like a meditative nap>>284609796she's not seen as a kid anymore so no a single 'please think of the children' adults give a single fuck if she lives or dies, that's part of the allegory. and I could be forgetting something but I'm pretty sure society being structured this way is meant to have been a very recent change that occurred just one or two generations ago, so all the adults in charge that pushed for it are still around and balls deep in sunk cost fallacy so just ignore how bad the system really is in execution because their political clout as 'the saviors of japan's youth' are on the line and they'd rather pretend that there are no problems than look for solutions to those problems
>>284600189Why isn't he replacing his hands with prostheses? They surely have those advanced fake hands that you can control with brainwaves and he's the exact type of crazy I expect to cut off his own hands because he sees them as imperfection.
Very good. I really liked it all. >>284601403DIdn't she let it grow because of something ono said?
>>284608241>I hope the "bad" part of Sanda already happenedi regret to inform you that the next arc or two are the last "good" bits of sanda. as soon as le salt sniffer is introduced, the plot goes haywire and loses a lot of its directionit stays FUN, that's for sure, paru doesn't let up on wacky shit and oshibu continuously delivers alongside a new character that builds off of yagyudon very well. but it's not exactly "good" outside of a few bits and pieces
>>284610725Will it make me mad like Beastars did? As long as that doesn't happen it'll be fine.
>>284601403>goes from best girl to worst girljust like my Amoru!
>>284600278This reminds me of the anon who claimed that every character had a number in the name. He was right too, I checked it after that thread.
>>284610521He chooses not to replace them because his old girlfriend loved them
So what did the old guy do? Just leave and die or will he return as upgraded killer cyborg next time?
My problem with this series is that is simply not interesting in any sort of way, everytime something happens I'm like "yeah ok", maybe is a me problem but I just can't form any expectation for this show and whatever comes fail to impress me.>yes gunslinger girls exist in this setting... they live in this school... yeah ok
>>284611357This is my reaction for everything besides the 2-4 series I enjoy every season. Sanda was actually one of them, but I didn't enjoy anything else aside from that and three other shows. I drop shit as soon as I feel disconnected from it though, no point following anything if I don't feel shit. For Sanda I just hope that it gets another season but the series I love rarely get that.
>>284611106She was always worst girl in the series but now it's the worst girl from the season.
>>284611587She's relatable as fuck IMO but that might just be me and my past.
>>284600125cute brat
>>284611225Ooshibu will return as a geezer swordie, same as usual
>>284611587who are we talking about? Fuyumura? Amoru?either way in doesn't matter, worst girl of the season is clearly on ImoUza
Glad the yuri enabler is dead.
>>284610725>the plot goes haywireThe fuck you mean "haywire". We're already there. We've been off the rails for a while. What, did they build more rails just to get off them again?
>>284604139They still need to rest, they just literally can't sleep
>>284601448Didn't Ono age up and run away before he ever turned into Santa? I have no idea how it is remotely his fault.
>>284608821I could shit in my hand and it would be a story with a beginning, middle, and end. Paru has great ideas but just can't write a cohesive story, the theory she's just making shit up on the fly makes more sense with every work.
>>284614965you sound like a deeply unhappy person.
no one actually likes fuyumura right? jesus christ, it's her own fault
>>284616659I like her because she's cute
>>284616659She was the only thing I liked about the show until a certain point, I'm not sure when, I just lost interest on her character after Ono appeared I think.
They ended the season on Ono dying of gay wet dream and Ooshibu fucking off?! No hook or anything for season 2?
>>284609775>fuyumura has been sleeping fine this entire time and nothing happened to herDropped plot point. She was obviously penned at the start to later be revealed as the reincarnation of Snow White, until the story hard pivoted from western fairytales to shinto gods and aliens.
>>284610521It was said at one point hand replacements are still too hard for their medical tech.Also it's not stated but I would headcanon a better excuse that there's legal complications too, like needing your original fingerprints for identification and that's why it's "too hard".
