I AM MADLY IN LOVE WITH IKO...!!!!!!
>>284694692Buki...
Huh, hadn't even noticed it was only 16 pages this timeBreak (again) next week
>>284694608>Rikka arcBoring, but she kind of needed something >She wrote a songFuck this shit. Is the mangaka stupid? The past bunch of chapters focused on Iko's song. Now let's make an arc after that about Rikka writing a song. Same crap with different coating. -_-'Obvious outcome is obvious. Whether her song is better or not is not important. Arisu's opinion will matter and I can also see from miles away that Rikka will ask whether he likes her song better compared to Iko's song, changing the main topic entirely from the competition with Izumi. Although if this happens I kinda think she will get a partial victory instead of Arisu saying he likes both songs equally. Or she just backtracks, runs away like usual.
Worst chapter in a while
>>284695122The entire magazine is on breakMayonaka is getting the COVER and Lead Color Pages of next magazine issue
I don't dislike Rikka yet I think her chapters are so boring. Even her romance with Arisu is dull and repetitive
>>284695200This is the most exciting thing about this chapter
>>284695312Hizumi is completely right. Rikka’s romance story is pretty much all sugar, no actual substance. Empty calories.
>>284695942Idk if the other romances have more substance since they're all "easy" but I can see the author throwing more Apollo's hints at Rikka. Like she's gonna add how at one point she "couldn't reach his voice" or some bs in her lyrics and Yamabuki will fall maddly in love with her bc she's Apollo
>>284695942>all sugar, no actual substance. That's just this manga in a nutshell.
Best girl was missed, it's been months since she had some real focus
>>284694677>I assure you dear reader, it was very important for the plot, to draw her in this pose
What are you hiding there, whore?
>two weeks break>when we're finally back, it's Slutkka in full attack mode
>>284694804Jesus, calm yourself woman.
He doesn't care
SEX
>no lemonpass
This is why he won't pick Rikka. He would have to put a cowbell on her, to keep track of her bs constantly. High maintenance, low return.
Wisdom for all the horny ladies out there.
>>284695037He's not your what? HE'S NOT YOUR WHAT?!
I can't believe we just got a GOOD Rikka chapter.To bad thread is gonna die fast anyway, because it's Rikka chapter.
>>284694718>Hiding her pantiescute
>>284694718>Damn, he almost saw my dick
Thread deader than disco.
>>284697458Really shows how fake its "popularity" is.
>>284694954> Rikka likes the bananaBuki is so lucky.
>>284694631>>284694677>>284694740>you can see the dark band on her pantyhoseSEXXXXX
>>284696793What about it made it good ? Genuily asking
>>284697746Lots and lots of cute Rikka panels (I live when her confidence is challenged), and finally some progress of her story.
>>284697728>see the dark band on her pantyhoseWhat is the purpose of the dark band? Is it just for style or does it provide support?
>>284697570Nah, it's just wrong heroine. Shinobu always reachers bump limit. Iko had 3 threads in a week when she confessed. It's just Rikka that's black hole of popularity.>What about NeneWho.
>>284694919What does an Archer Fish do? How does it throw water?
>>284694718So Arisu enjoys being a pervert, he even tells Rikka to keep going. That's why he won't adopt the rule.
>>284694718Nene would let him watch, and keep eye contact while doing it.
>>284697986The Nene hate is so forced.Her threads also regularly reach bump limits
>no shinobuBad chapter.
>>284698172To be fair she's the third wheel so to speak
>>284694608I just finished reading this manga. I think Nene might be my favorite girl
>>284698391Last time she had some kind of spotlight was on ch.70 something, we're reaching chapter 100 ...
>>284698453Based Nenechad
>>284697986>Shinobu always reachers bump limitESL and also a liar. The shitty Nene park date had more buzz than the Sky Tower with Shinobu. KEK.
>>284698656Show me the stats.
>>284698730Sky Tower>https://desuarchive.org/a/thread/279114370/#279114370Nene date>https://desuarchive.org/a/thread/279342554/#279342554Genuinely shut the fuck up already, you imbecile lying piece of shit.
>>284697986
>>284698950LMAO, the difference is only about 40 posts. Come on dude. They're both winners here.
>Dead Rikka thread
>>284698983Remeber the 'always reachers bump limit'. So no, fuck yourself.
>>284699021Ooooh, struck a nerve I see.
>>284698957Even a flash of her ZR drives me crazy.
>>284699100You can play a fool if you want, at least numbers won't lie. >Shinobu chapter from the previous arc>https://desuarchive.org/a/thread/281940199/#281940199>No Bump Limit in sightKEKEKEKEKEKE. Humiliation ritual.
This manga needs more Iko
>>284699180
>>284698028It's fascinating how they have such a great aim despite the distorsion due of light changing mediums.
>>284698656>Last time she had some kind of spotlight was on ch.70 something, we're reaching chapter 100 ...You're making this sound like a big deal when it's literally the same for Nene and Rikka.Last focus chapter on each girlShinobu - 79Nene - 80Rikka - 81It makes no damn difference you fucking retard.
>>284699671Correction, Nene's last focus chapter was chapter 84, not 80.
>>284699169LMAO, professional Shinobu hater.
>>284699180>Someone misses me!
>>284694986Rikka shouldn't bother with this femcel.
>It's another "Rikka shows affection to Buki" chapter.All her chapter feels the fucking same and there's barely any chemistry behind it. Can't we just go back to Nene?
>>284699671So Ch. 88 was not a Shinobu chapter to you? How many time do you intend to move the goalpost from the bump limit claim, tard-kun?
>>284695122Just put it on the same album
This thread has low engagement, because 4channers are preparing to spend christmas with their SO, family and friends. Nobody has time for manga right now.And Rikka is super popular with readers.
>whokka chapter>no lemon chan senseiMy slumber is eternal.
If we rank the Mayos by the amount of cocks they must suck in order to make it big in their careers, we get:Idol-chan >>> Nene > Shinobu > Rikka >>> Iko >>> LemonLemon wins out in a purity contest.
>>284699928If you're counting the mini focus chapters on the school trip arc it just becomes this:Shinobu - 88Rikka - 89Nene - 90It still makes no fucking difference. Everyone except Iko were just the focus 10-11 chapters ago.Also why are you replying to me? obviously I quoted the wrong post so don't even try to argue with me, you retarded ESL nigger.
>>284694774>>284694804Stacy Rikka
Rikka is so boring, her entire character consists of Apollo red herrings
Igarashi keeps recycling Rikka chapters. She's yet again, arguing with this unlikable bitch for xth time in the series. Can't we get something new?
Rikka should just push him down and fuck him. That's her last chance to make love to someone before she gets passed around.
>>284700057>Idol-chanHow dare you slander my pure angelic virgin like that?
Yes yes yes, a chapter focused on Rikka's butt!Please sit on my face Rikka...
>>284700075Trigger alert. You sound defeated.
>>284700138I don't even see Apollo red herrings anymore. Her entire character career path for the past 50 chapters has been the same shit of the following:1. Compose song for something or someone2. Ask help because her songs sucks3. The better artist gets on her nerves4. Buki breaks the up the fight.There's just no god damn variety to it.
>>284699585>despite the distorsion due of light changing mediums.Because they're underwater?
>"Arisu, tell her.">"Rikka chapters never reach bump limit."
Pretend what? That he cares about her?
>Instead of helping my career, can't you make mu chapters more popular?
there's no reason to discard a harem ending.
The Apollo's charade will be milk until march a right ? There's no way we're going to find out who she is before the anime is over...i was hoping for a reveal in ch.100
>>284694774SLUT
Tunabros!I missed the tunas so much!!
>Guys, I'm worried. Nene wasn't in this chapter. How is she supposed to avenge me, if she's not present?
>>284700776It would be a loveless affair anon, here is how it would play out>you see girl X trying to kiss him and then either>he pushes her "I am too tired/we have to do X"or>some other girl interrupts himand then>other girls would appear, insult him, call him a pervert/playboy>they would all still be virgin even after a timeskip>he would make a stupid "the shit I put up with" face and keep acting like he is above loveThere, why do you want something like this?
>>284697881Techincally support I guess, but to the viewer it gives a delightful highlight to an otherwise plain gradient.
>>284694954>>284694986So for Rikka to make it in the music world, she has to get her heart broken by Arisu. Then she'll pump out song after song like that Taylor Swift girl.
>>284695037>he's not my boyfri...>>284695061>honey, tell her
>>284694868Rikka is an unironic demon sometimes. Lord help us if she gets a jealousy streak.
>>284696566he only cares about nene
>>284701659She can avenge Nino anytime by raping Ibuki and conceiving 10 babies.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=drYDdf9-DM0new teaser
>>284702088Unfortunately, he only cares about Apollo which is funny since Rikka has almost zero effect on him
>>284702313It's my headcanon now, that she did.
>>284702453who's gonna tell him?
>>284702088This, but Shinobu.
>>284702086I hope so, she's the cutest when she's like that.
>>284696750her Boyfri...
>>284702495Yes
>>284701659Nini was avenged already, go away.
TITS
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=drYDdf9-DM0
>>284702006Exactly.
>>284702904When this anime drops, /a/ will never be the same.
>>284694631>>284694677>>284694718those legs and thighs are pure sexo
>>284702904No new footage and they're still using still pictures with zero movements.But the first trailer reached almost 500k views that's more than what I expected
>>284702967expect it to be QUALITY same as 5toubun S1.
>>284702799I want to motorboat their tummies.
Nene won
>>284702799All tunas are best tunas. The studio better not ruin these scenes like they ruined their tummies in their school uniform.
>>284703008Our hearts, with is more important than Yamabukis love.
>>284701021>animeAnon, that's irrelevant unless the anime makes a blatant mistake, blunder or whatever and don't change VA for Apollo and the fans immediately hear who is talking despite attempts at concealing it. Outside of future retcon possibilities, Arisu supposedly doesn't learn Apollo's identity even after marrying the winner or Apoolo and ch. 5 of the manga makes Apollo decide to tell everything about the charade. Given this I have my doubts if at least the readers will know before the ending. The toubun reveal by the way was around 75-80% completion of the work. This is nowhere near that I'm afraid.
>>284694631That's her basically wearing black panties, right? SEXO.
I think this manga would have been more popular during the 10s. It feels like a heisei manga.
>>284703077>The toubun reveal by the way was around 75-80% completion of the workUnrelated but it still puzzles me that most people on /a/ didn't think Yotsuba would win after this.
>>284703084Based on past fanservice with Rikka, she seems more plain compared to Nene or Shinobu. >>284702799
>>284702799This looks like AI slop
>>284703008>>284703074And my boner.
>>284701659Yoru won?
>>284702994the only good looking episode of 5toubun s1 was the one produced by shaft, iirc it was the ichika one when they go skiing
>>284703118Well if she wears pantyhose over her panties I'd guess she'd wear plain panties so they don't get stuck on the panties or something.
>>284703112Hey, it was fair to think that till her festival side dropped which was another dose of pity. The reveal itself and the fact she still decided to take zero action were not a winning flag. I also say F and Negi for that matter decided to say that the pairs need to know each other better and all but F didn't give a flying fuck about Yotsuba unless other people talked about how she has issues or needs help. Even on the festival he was unaware she decided to take everyones tasks on herself.
>>284703137He will draw her wearing this again, right?
>>284702994I think it's going to be worse than 5toubun s1 (and I don't think that season was that bad either). The anime is coming out in 2 weeks and they're still using the same images in the trailer and they barely move. There's one scene when Rikka is playing the guitar that doesn't look good. That's too bad because other animes have been made by unknown studios and still looked better
Duality of sluts
>>284703112Watched anime first, then read manga and it still doesnt make sense
>>284703112>Unrelated but it still puzzles me that most people on /a/ didn't think Yotsuba would win after this.Yet an other guy on a previous Tuna thread said /a/ figured out that Yotsuba would win (unlike reddit) Wasn't there so i can't say who's right
>>284695122>"Let's have the audience decide which song is the better one!"What audience is he talking about?
>>284703077>Arisu supposedly doesn't learn Apollo's identity even after marrying the winner or Apoolo and ch.Apollo telling her side of the story in her podcast doesn't mean that Arisu hasn't already figured it out on his own who she was
>>284703281Maybe they post them on their youtube channel, tik tok or something.
>>284703281The serie has mentioned "toktok" before But did we sever see Rikka working on that new song ? All I remember is her working on Iko's song.
>>284703261You're right though. A lot of people on /a/ knew Yotsuba was going to win and a lot of redditors were on denial already. The people on /a/ that were still on denial were the same redditors that were just cross-posting.
>>284703346She has life outside of the club and school you know (looking for inspiration as Town Bicycle).
>>284703261She was everyone's second best girl for a long time until it was clear she was gonna win. Then the hate came.
>>284703442Miku was first, right?
>>284703442from what I remember she was for the most part #3 in popularity behind miku and ichika, she didnt have haters or shitposter until the big reveal happened>>284703504yes, it was miku, ichika and then yotsuba
>>284703504Miku on twitter/reddit/youtube/weibo/4chanNino on 4channelIt's funny how everyone was in agreement that Yotsuba winning would be fine until she actually won.
>>284703389I checked reddit sub years after Yotsuba's victory just to read people theories and how right/wrong they were. They believed in Miku and Nino like crazy espacially Miku. Even itsuki seemed to have more chances since she was first girl. I checked tuna's reddit and Rikka/Apollo are the most liked but this time I think they're right about Apollo/Rikka winning.
>>284694608We don't appreciate Iko legs enough.
>>284703578I think anyone would think Rikka would win based on the first few chapters. Expect the dozen or so animeonlies to think Rikka will win.
>>284703573Yotsuba was 2nd in the only character poll that occurred.
>>284703640Yeah but it's chapter 100 now and they are still convinced that Rikka/Apollo will win. I'm surprised by her popularity since her chapters usually feel boring to me but they love her over there. I think it's because she's assertive and because ppl think Apollo deserves to win the most
>>284703633Her colored thights are not that great.
>>284703695They have a better reason than mine. I like her because she has a nice ass.
>>284703700Indeed, always hated color they picked for it.
>>284703633They look so plain compared to the volume the shading gives to Rikka's legs.
>>284703700the biggest girls should eat the others
>>284703786Lemon is not such a brute.
>>284703700Lemon should be way more deadpan.
>>284703700Why is shinobu not wearing a jacket and thights like everyone else ? Maybe she's following the school rules more closely
>>284703801get her drunk and she is
>>284703695>I think it's because she's assertiveAssertiveness never wins in harems to be honest. It's always chemistry but I still think Rikka's never going to win since Igarashi probably got backed into a corner and doesn't know what to write about her to make her more interesting.
>>284703908>Assertiveness never wins in harems to be honestakane won the goddess cafe
>>284703578>but this time I think they're right about Apollo/Rikka winning.lol lmao even. redditors can keep ignoring the elephant in the room but that will never make rikka win
>>284703876I think Rikka's jacket is part of the official uniform. I guess Shinobu is too hot to wear it.I'm concerned with Nene's skirt height. It barely hides her panties. She's such a succubus!
>>284703927Because Seo is a hack. He rolled a roulette and picked a girl at random.>uuuh I chose you because you were the first one to confesslol
It's either going to be shinobu or rikka
>>284703927>akane won the goddess cafeNot the own you think it is
>>284703927Seo was just trolling all of us. Hayato didn't chose a winner, he just went with the first one that asked for it. There was no romance at all.
>>284703927as oppposed to the dozens of harems where the assertive character lost? the last time assertiveness won aside from akane was Chihiro in TWGOK back in 2014 and it's funny too because it's the only character that made sense actually well written but Igarashi here didn't even make Rikka a well written character. Shinobu has that card already lol.
>>284703982Shinobu or Nene are my bet.
>shinobufag delusionI'm out. This usually only happens during SEA hours.
>iko arc into rikkaslop its over
>>284704012Chihiro wasn't assertive. Even Ayumi was more assertive than Chihiro. Chihiro was just a cunt and the author wanted to show that leaving 2D behind means you get a cunt.
>>284704081Keima only picked her because she liked him without him trying to get in her pants. Tenri did too but that didn't matter because the CF can never win.
>>284704078It's the reatar of the cycle. Next we get a Nene arc and then a Shinobu arc, then Igarashi forgets Iko again for a few mini cycles, then she returns and the cycle starts again.
>>284704046Why Nene? She literally has no chance
>>284704105Keima picked her because she was the normalfag. All the others were walking tropes of galge characters.
>>284704113Bucky's imagination of her is a sex demon.
>>284704046This. Shinobu and Nene are the only characters that have good character development in this manga and that's hilarious considering we're at 100 chapters already.>>284704081>Chihiro wasn't assertive??? Reread the manga again retarded speedreader. Ayumi wasn't as assertive as her considering Ayumi was still acting like your typical tsundere. Chihiro wasn't even anything close like what Ayumi was as she was the most assertive character among everyone. >invited him to dates multiple times >went to his house to check up on his cold>went along and helped him trying to capture Ayumi's goddess.>literally dedicated a song for him in her performanceDoing all of this without even an existing goddess in her making her love for him genuine compared to the other girls.
>>284704113Her chances increased with her last win. Nenecoin is only going up.
>>284704153>>284704186That getup was too sexy to be a one-of gag. Bucky probably faps to her the most.
>>284704186>>284704153I'm sure there's another nene succubus that buki was imaging, i just forgot which chapter it appeared
>the anime is going to be split-cour (i.e. insteant season 2)They really are hoping it is going to go big. Don't know why their expectations for it are so high when the interest for the anime seems middling at best over there (even 500k for a PV is not that impressive, many PVs get more than that).
are we forgetting the flash forwards that throw iko and nene out
>>284704186>with her last winNene playing Bucky like a fiddle will always be my favorite part of the manga,.
>>284704153>>284704186God, I can't wait for the anime to get to this part so we can get an influx of succ Nene fanart.
>>284704246I thought the first MV only got decent views because people wanted to identify who the VAs were and looped it. >>the anime is going to be split-courDid this come to you in a dream? I don't see this being popular. It's something that'd be popular 10 years ago but not now. Probably deserves it more than Medaka, god I hate Mona.
>>284703908Yeah but she's been given way too many Apollo hints for her to not win. She's not my favorite but it'll be easy for Igarashi to give her a sad Apollo backstory and win people over with it
>>284704286Get are getting cheerleader Nene first.
>>284703942>Ignoring the elephant in the roomWhich is ?
>>284704301>Yeah but she's been given way too many Apollo hints for her to not win>0 character development>0 buki chemistry>7 apollo hints>give me liberty, give me fire, give me buki's dick or I retire>"if" and "when" but never ispotential woman right here.
>>284703688>2k voteshave some shame
>>284704113bucky is obsessed with her
>>284694608>>284694631>>284694677>>284694718>the author's thin veiled fetish
>>284704365Hey, don't compare my wife to Rikka.
>>284704354All of the planted seeds he planted for Shinobu.
>>284704301>but it'll be easy for Igarashi to give her a sad Apollo backstoryBut not even Rikka deserves an Apollo backstory. There is no foreshadowing for Igarashi to pick up on lmao.
>>284704295>Did this come to you in a dream?https://x.com/SugoiLITE/status/2002352314724606127Most reliable anime leaker. So when season 2 is announced at the end of S1 and people say "look, it got a season 2", it was planned from the start.
I don't really care who the author's going to chose in the second to last chapter. I enjoy the journey and know the destination will be shit.Also, this Iko looks huge compared to other pics where she's tiny.
>>284704521The nips love Iko, she's going to be your next Miku.
>>284704441This kinda reminds me of Yotsuba. Shinobu used be the fun one character, who was not a threat unlike nene the tsun (like when she didn't get the hotel room), and a lot of people thought she was going to keep being the losing heroine and then got mad when she got more focus later on. I still see people dismissing the hints she been given for some reason
Should Apollo even have a sad backstory?>She's Apollo>She loves Bucky>The endWhat else could be there?
>>284704630>I still see people dismissing the hints she been given for some reasonBecause there will always be bias confirmation for each faggot whose favorite is Rikka. But people don't realize how much of a 5toubunfag Igarashi is that even the writing for Mayotuna has a shit ton of similarities to it. People will say this not another 5toubun clone but infact, this is literally 5toubun clone right now except it's less entertaining, we got 4 girls instead of 5, and the 2nd coming of a well written Yotsuba like character.
>>284704653Yes, otherwise it's gonna be boring. Arisu keeps saying he doesn't like any of the girls yet one of them is Apollo, the one he's supposed to be already in love with. When Apollo is gonna show herself, if she wins just bc she's Apollo people are going to get disappointed so she'll have a sad backstory to make her romance with Yamabuki feels more special and earned than the other 3. It's probably why rikka's home life is still a mystery
>>284703303But if that's the case it would be weird if he doesn't confront Apollo even if he doesn't care who she was.
>>284704653>Should Apollo even have a sad backstory?It's only leading to that to be honest. She said her dream was impossible to achieve and Shinobu was the only character that kept on repeating this same sentiment in the entire series.
>>284703688And this poll came with vol. 5 that of fucking course had the Labour Thanksgiving Tour chapters, artificially boosting her popularity. Oh, and she was the cover heroine of the volume as well. The favorite chapter poll also had to happen after her pity backstory dropped.
>pity backstorylmao toubunfags are hilarious considering they're still seething 6 years after Yotsuba won.
>he deleted lol
>>284704780Well we'll still missing the context of that podcast. Arisu could know who Apollo is and could still be listening to it because prior to that Apollo would have told him to "to tune in" to hear her full story or something, and after her podcast he picked her up and they'll live happily together.
>it's been almost six years since 5Toubun ended and people in these threads still won't stop discussing it and bring it upIt's been that long already, when will you people ever move on?
>>284704855Nisekoi and Twgok are even older and people are still mad. But I guess these days nobody complains at Naru winning in Love Hina.
maybe if Igarashi stops copying 5toubun, people will stop talking about it.
>chapter so lackluster that the shitposters have already started up
>>284704943I dont understand people hating on Nisekoi's ending when Chitoge was the designated winner even in the one-shot
>>284704943People are mad, but you don't see discussion of other romcoms still revolving around Nisekoi and TWGOK. At most they get a few mentions once in a while but other than that they barely get brought up anymore. Most people have moved on. It's only 5Toubun which for some people has people like this.>>284704953I'm interested if the constant 5Toubun discussion when discussing Mayonaka is a 4chan-specific thing or if it's everywhere. Even the other clones like GCT and Amagami didn't have constant 5Toubun comparisons and the like at least outside of 4chan.
>>284704764He’s not in love with Apollo, he wants to find her to take back his dumb embarrassing confession
>>284704983Come on, he was lying. He said that he came back to keep the promise he made with her (to go pro), taking back his ILY was just copium. It's true that I dont remember a scene in the present that showed that he was still in love with her, but he still got the fortune that said she was his soulmate
>>284704943>Nisekoi and Twgok are even older and people are still madI'm still mad at this and this shit is already 17 years old.
>>284703700LEMON IS APOLLO. I WILL DIE ON THIS HILL.
>>284704981GCT had a ton of comparisons early on, I guess the lack of actual romance got 5tfags away.Amagami also had a ton of comparisons since the guy was Negi's assistant and the girls even wore swimsuits like their 5t counterparts.Then Gotoubun and Bokuben were compared to each other since they came out at around the same time and had tons of similarities.And both of them were compared to Nisekoi since that was the golden standard at the moment.
>>284705103I only watched it years later but I'm with you, Noebro.
>>284705130From what I've seen of Amagami discussion elsewhere (not here), they barely talked about 5Toubun anymore after a while. It was very clearly inspired by it but it eventually stood on its own, to the point that people could discuss it on its own merits instead of constantly comparing it to the Quints. I don't know why that has yet to happen for Mayonaka.
>>284705181Because it has magic involved and planted the harem ending seeds unlike 5toubun which was very grounded and showed one girl winning from the start
>>284705130>BokubenThis one got shit on when the author introduced the omnibus ending and people just lost interest. Such a shame, it would've been nice to see one winner.
>>284705466Yep. Then Syd had an inconclusive harem end with all girls going after the MC.But I do like 22i's art, hope to see a new one from him.
>>284694608Which one has the smelliest thights? Nene's kneesocks also welcome.
>>284705181>I don't know why that has yet to happen for Mayonaka.Because it ripoff the mystery girl plot and the MC who dismisses the idea of romance and the girls barely have any personality other than their respective tropes, there's nothing about this story that stands out
>>284705620Iko after hours of streaming.Rikka comes off as being fastidious with hers.Nene could go either way.
>rikka chaptersleep status?
>>284705103Still unironically seething. Hiromi won by being a seething whore and begging.I like that my image about it is still being posted even in 2025.
>>284705678> there's nothing about this story that stands outIt's honestly mind-boggling why some people treat this as the next big thing when it's a pretty standard, run-of-the-mill harem story.
>>284706204Exactly. If the girls are generic, why are anons so invested in this series and whoever wins?
>>284706204>>284706353Why are you even here? Just fuck off and let us enjoy this series.
>>284706417No one's stopping you from enjoying it, lol. Why you should let the opinion of some faceless ossan on the Internet influence your enjoyment?
>No LemonShit chapter
>>284705949I'm downright comatose.
>>284706826Arisu...
>>284706204>It's honestly mind-boggling why some people treat this as the next big thingYeah, the manga is just doing okay and the anime might boost its sales but it's hard to get into it without thinking it's a 5toubun clone. The good way to approach this series is to accept that it is indeed a 5toubun clone and just pick your favorite girl and keep on speculating who Apollo is.
I like the series well enough and all, but I don't think I'm going to check out the anime. I don't really have that much investment in the cast.
>>284703700Holy moly sex with lemon. Lemon should win
>Shitkka chapter.Isleep.
>>284694608Odd look for Rikka looking so unconfident. Maybe she wanted the center focus instead of being the backdrop.
>>284694718Why is there a four-legged takoyaki drawn on the whiteboard? Does it have any deeper meaning in Japanese?
>>284703092This. Even Toubun formula of mystery girl doesn't help in long-run.
>>284694868>>284694896>>284694919Rikka seems way scarier than Nene.
>>284700776Absolutely there is every reason to disregard it, since nothing it building towards harem ending The biggest thing is not even that this is "real life setting", but Yamabuki isn't interested in love big time to even desire this. Girls are too competitive as well. Honestly at this point speculating harem ending in romcoms without any substantial seeds to warrant it feels pointless.
>>284708944Harem ending confirmed
>>284694677Hey get that speech bubble out the way we want pantsu>>284694774>>284694804Damn Rikka is aggressive
Reminder that nobu is Igarashi's favorite
>>284709197No, nene is his favorite.
>>284708971At this stage, I think people have largely gotten tired of the formula. Notice there haven't been any new true 5Toubun clones since Mayonaka debuted. Even the other clones like Amagami and Cafe had other aspects to them that helped them stand out. This one doesn't really: it's perhaps the most blatant of them. The new romcoms these days are going back to copying other series or doing their own thing.
>>284709249No
>>284709278And people wonder why their derivative harem slop is selling so poorly.
>>284709645What I don't get is why hasn't /a/ specifically been able to move on from 5Toubun when others have been able to do so just fine. Even in spaces where people are still upset about Yotsuba winning, people don't actively bring up 5Toubun anymore.
>>284709942It's just the same group of people laying bait for each other. One of the demerits of pseudo anonymity.
>>284709942I think it just became a resident self-replicating meme
>>284709942>What I don't get is why hasn't /a/ specifically been able to move on from 5ToubunI don't think you understand how big 5toubun was. It was selling millions of volumes years ago. It wasn't just some random harem manga, it was the biggest harem manga that even toppled Love Hina in terms of popularity. It shouldn't come as a surprise that a lot of faggots in here still can't move on from it, not especially after Igarashi is copy pasting the formula in his own manga.
>>284709986>One of the demerits of pseudo anonymity.You could say the same for Reddit, but not even Reddit is this hung-up over that series.
>>284710068As someone who actually watched and followed the series, I'm perfectly aware of how big it was. The thing is: it was big everywhere, not just here. However, other places have been able to handle things better than here. Go, for example, to Twitter, Reddit, or MAL and see how they discuss series like GCT or Amagami. They rarely bring it up anymore, and if they do, it's only occasionally, not a weekly thing like what happens on /a/. Even Mayonaka discussion elsewhere isn't 5Toubun-centric. I just took a look at the sub to check (it was my first time ever checking it), and neither of the recent chapter threads make any mention of the series. Sure, if you search the sub you'll find mentions of it, but it's rarely the constant thing you see it here. Mayonaka fans, or really harem fans, being so hung up on 5Toubun specifically and being unable to move on, seems to be an /a/-specific thing, and I've never understood why.
>>284710171>seems to be an /a/-specific thing,Well, no shit. you just answered your own question.
>>284710081No you couldn't because you're not forced to register and use a handle on /a/, making baiting very easy. Add ironic shitposting to the mix and here we are, pretending to be upset and all that.
It's honestly hard to move on from 5toubun when it was just THAT good. No other harem manga has come close to how good it was. Not TWGOK, not Nisekoi, not Bokuben, not Masamune, not any other existing title in the past 15 years has come close to it. It was like a once in a life time experience reading it and looking forward to it weekly. It also had 24/7 threads moving reaching 500 post bump limits in just a few hours, the theories never ended for 2 years, and even after the mystery was revealed, people were still speculating for retarded bait and switches, there's just no other like it.
>>284710304I hope you don't sincerely believe this
>>284710351You just had to be there. Sorry if you weren't.
>>284710365It's more that you're conflating the community aspect with the quality of the manga itself
>>284710495goes hand in hand.
>>284710538I'll just have to politely disagree then
>>284699776Iko, I need you!!!
>>284695200I mean yeah, next issue will come out when the anime has begun already
how many chapters do you think they'll manage to cover in the anime?
>>28471141425
>>284711414It'll either end in the sports festival or end in the fireworks.
>>284704248Indeed, makes you think she's actually smart.

Girls popularity, per threads bump limit:Shinobu/Nene >>> Iko >>>>>>>>>>>> Shitkka
Rikka will avenge Ichika
Oh no, thread is dying!
>>284714301Meanwhile the popularity polls are shinobu/rikka/iko >>> nene
>>284714614God, I hope anime will change that, and Nene coin goes up.
A Christmas Miracle.
>>284695037>buki reduced to fri statusgrim
The thing that's annoying with Mayotuna is how important Apollo is supposed to be - hinted as endgame, identity still hidden after all this time - yet we don't know anything about her. Why should we care that she ends up marrying the mc when they don't even interact as apollo/Arisu in the present day ? Apollo is a coward.At least 5toubun realized that the readers cared more about the 5 sisters than a childhood ccrush that happened years before and made his mc moves on.
>>284694608Author should make it less obvious that she’s his favourite girl.
>>284714683if the anime ends at the fireworks festival, it will boost her popularity
>>284715633She will already be the most popular, that will only skyrocket her. She was the first to show affection and is prominent in the beginning, that pulls in new people.
>>284715686She's also the biggest bitch around Buki so it's hard to say if newgen anime fans will like a tsundere.
>>284715713Newgen fans only want boring nice girls like Shinobu.
>>284715686Nene is a tsun, with long pink hair, and showed that she liked Yamabuki first she's definitely going to be the fav for the audience and then it's going to be Rikka. I'm ready to see Shinobu popularity being just like Yotsuba, second or third on people's list but never first
>>284703633Bukki...
>Iko after a good creampie
Which one has the best butt?
>>284715713She's not much of a bitch and she's pretty easy to see through. I doubt there will be that many people taking her at face value.
>>284694718Who's in the wrong here? Arisu for not knocking on the door, or Shinobu/Rikka, for flaunting their pussies to the whole world like that?
>>284717727The seductresses
>>284717282Their clashes are pretty amusing too. Arisu's egotism vs Nene's stubbornness.
