Remember Hyouka?
BRING IT BACK
>>284793506tell me more about it, I'm curious
>>284793888Probably the TV anime with the best animation ever.
>>284793888heh
>>284793596No. Dead director. It won't be the same.Probably my favorite my favorite show, tied sith Uchoten Kazoku 1.
>>284793596there's no need to talk about the obvious outcome, they fuck and have kids.Oreki is probably awful in bed, though.
>>284793506It made me curious.
>>284794122>Dead director. It won't be the same.Do NOT remind me. These wounds they will not heal.At least the director of Shoushimin Series is probably available because no one appreciates art.>>284794168>Oreki is probably awful in bed, though.Sounds like a source of good comedy, awkward tension and satisfying romance, in that order. I can't wait.>they fuck and have kids.S3 when?
>>284793888Good animation and good character writing, but it was a mystery show with very non-dramatic mysteries. "Why did my uncle call this book ice cream", "why did I get angry at my teacher", "how is my movie suppose to end?".
>>284794468>it was a mystery show with very non-dramatic mysteriesIt's a love story.
>>284794468>it was a mystery show with very non-dramatic mysteries.It was a coming-of-age romance masquerading as a slice of life comedy masquerading as a formulaic detective story.>but nothing ever happenedThat's what makes it good and relatable and a clever twist on typical mystery stories where the main cast's motivations only exist to serve the audience the masturbatory satisfying resolutions they crave.
Love Mayaka
mery status?
>>284793950never post my wife ever again
>>284794449>>284794168
>>284795715You're wife has a cute butt,
>>284793506
>>284796446https://youtu.be/aAJNm0ApPjk?si=9P1vlRB6L7PLr2qS
RIP Mery
>>284793506Is mery still dead?
>>284795515>>284797370>>284797385Mery is lonely and scared. Let's cheer her on. I'll start:M
>>284793506>Gabriel Fauré - SicilienneI will always associtate this piece of music with Hyouka.
>learning Japanese>encounter the word /hyouka/>means 'assessment', 'appraisal', 'recognition'>oh, so Hyouka's title was a clever word play on the mystery shit and the 9000IQ of the faggot at the center of the harem>read the anime's kanji>means ice creamThis language is retarded.
>>284798179I scream
Need more Irisu desu
never watched, is it any good? that guy seems like a try hard edgy "i got no felling"s guy
>>284793506No. I never watched it. I don't watch slice-of-life school days stories where the boy and girl don't get together.
>>284798716I wouldn't say edgy but he is your average disinterested, listless, doesn't want to do anything unless drug kicking and screaming into it pud.
>>284798716>>284798748It's very good I think you should watch it
>>284798716Watch the superior series, Shoushimin.
How is the novel or manga progressing?
>>284799062volume 7 never ever.manga is still going though
>>284798847They hardly solve any mysteries. Maybe this anime was about having good animation.>look i'm pretty
>>284799893Mayaka is very pretty
>>284794589>It was a coming-of-age romance masquerading as a slice of life comedy masquerading as a formulaic detective story.This guy gets it
>>284800525yeah, Oreki and Chitanda nearly had a falling out when they got mixed signals about how they should be reacting to Chitanda's actual situation and it's the most interesting the series was for a while, this whole thing is basicaly kids learning they have to be couragous and actually put themselves out there to obtain what they want, if Oreki wants Chitanda he has to actually make it clear, if database guy want to actually get over his cowardness at fear of not being good enough for anyone be it his friend, his girlfriend or himself he has to actually try despite how scary, frustrating and painful failing is despite trying your best.I love the Eri arc just for how easily Oreki's sister tore her apart for messing with her brother like that even through she's no different than he and his group, too scared to go at something earnestly because she fears failure and rejection too much, as do all youngsters do. If you never get over it as a youngster you're never gonna get over it as an adult
>>284793506Of course I remember Kyoani's best show
The amazing thing about Hyouka is the author writes slower than the Haurhi author does.
>>284799893that's very much not the reason why it's good. if pretty animation could save an anime then Free would've gotten the same praise.what really nails this in is one episode of Hyouka that was anime original, the pool episode. it had the same basic premise, all the pretty animation, plus extra gratuitous fanservice. but that episode sucked. the difference between it and the rest of the show is night and day. the reason being it was written by some schmuck at the studio and the original story was written by a genius.that's ultimately what storytelling, and art in general comes down to. a genius can make an interesting story even about some kids solving mundane mysteries in everyday life, meanwhile someone with no talent can't even make a decent story about superheroes that can blow up planets.
mayaka deserved better
>>284793506Why does she want to become a tree so badly?
>>284802814author just stopped writing, there hasn't even been an inkling of a new novel since 2016 release.
>>284793506Shitanda ruined the showSatoshi should have won the Orekibowl
>>284803789He still writes, just not Hyouka
>>284803250woah I got that jokeI'm practically fluent
>>284804715I'm going to fucking kill him
>>284803789shoushimin had like 11 years gap between volumes, it's also finished now so maybe he will write some hyouka too
>>284793506kyoani thread?
>>284793506>ntrPass
>>284798880this
>>284804929Oh, those were the days, everyone was a Kyoani fanboy saying "I wish Kyoani made this anime, they're the only studio that can do it! They are the next studio Ghibli!"
>>284793506yes
>>284798716it's a romance.
>>284798716I honestly don't think it's aged that well. The animation is still great, of course, but the characters were too "quirky" for me on a recent rewatch, and I found Chitanda (main girl) especially grating.
>>284793950Was going to post this clip, so damn good.
>>284804839Shoushimin wasn't even planned to be that long, editor-san goaded him into writing some more to complete the season theme
>>284802875>some schmuck at the studioYou mean Shouji Gatoh?
>>284806579hyouka was not supposed to be a series either
>>284796271very nostalgic i remember replaying this scene a lot
>>284793506I remember, it was fire
>>284793950>the TV anime with the best animation everZoomer moment
>>284793506need something like this ;_;
>>284798609the smuggest
best AMV ever? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_S79Y-_8F0
>>284807328But you have to admit, this is high-quality animation
>>284807382Sex
>>284807397No, I'm not giving zoomers an inch
best MAD ever? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mlGOUzBs3Y0
more of a fukushuu enjoyer myself
>>284793506I rewatched it after shoushimin and it was still great. I liked it better.>>284795480>hear her talk>fall in love with her voice>look it up>it's Kayano Ai, againShit happened like 3 or 4 times.
>>284807460These kinds of MADs are bad because they assume you don't know Japanese at all. If you do there's a huge disconnect between what you're reading and hearing.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTZnIt8t4hUIt's possible to do it well tho.
>>284807328>>284807424>getting called a zoomer when you're in fact GenX.Thanks for making me feel young, anon.
>>284799911And she has a nice tight butt.
>>284809595But then again...
>>284798179Many such cases, in manga, the Japanese can go even further and use furigana for ambiguous texts.
>>284809595
>>284793596Punching my screen every time this happened, the memories...
>>284809339にわか侍 is truly good. he's japanese so ofc he would get that part sorted but the hyouka one was good in that it acknowledged that language part unlike other MAD made by westerners
Chitanda is perfect for porn.
>>284810398Do not.
>>284793506The mysteries were boring
>>284810398
>>284810903>>284810415Can't go lewder than this.Mods are fags.
>>284810990
>>284793950Why are kyotrannies like this?
>>284811058pomf =3
>>284798179it's a triple pun, yes
>>284811058Forever the most delicious ED
>>284811225Mayaka is so tiny and cute I want to absolutely ravage her
>>284798880Shoushimin completely breaks credibility at the end of the first season. First, a gang of druggie girls kidnaps another girl for revenge, threatening her violently because they think she ratted them out a few years ago. What do they expect will happen after that? They're not in a yakuza movie: kidnapping someone is a serious offense. Realistically, if they wanted revenge, they should just have beaten her on the street, but of course this would not have helped the plot.And it's even worse because, second, wolf faked a ransom call to the mother, who evidently then called the police. Ransom is a very serious charge, and the police would find extremely strange that the perpetrators didn't know about the ransom call, or at least didn't try to hide their faces to not get caught after releasing the victim. Any serious investigation would have unraveled the case, with serious consequence for the offender.So no, I can't take Shoushimin seriously. Hyoukka stays much more believable.
>>284798179>the faggot at the center of the haremWho?
>>284798716Does this look like a tryhard edgy "I got no feelings" guy to you?
>>284812127he does next to this chad
>>284814290
>>284806579So we got kino because of editor-san?I kneel.
>>284807390Addictive introduced me to Royal Repubic, so that one.
>>284793506To any lurkers, jump straight to episode 3, it's absolutely CHILLING and demonstrates how good the show is.Also the Ice queen can fuck off.
>>284794468>why did I get angry at my teacherThis episode made me see red honestly. Chitanda is one of my favorite anime characters, but jesus christ I was nearly blew a gasket with that episode.
>>284805503DAMN BRAT
>>284807424then you're an idiot. people who can't ever admit when they're wrong are wrong all the time.
>>284814290KenGod is just the silly comedic relief as the retard acquaintance howeverbeit. He’s not even friends with the lead characters
>>284793506I still like it a lot. Bless that one artist who still draws the main characters to this day (?)
>>284816422Mery was killed
>>284816727how do we avenge her?
I kneel to Kyoani for all the qt background girls in Hyoukafuck the arsonist
>>284816727What do you mean?
>>284816625Don't pretend you don't enjoy it
...bravo, bravo...
>you will NEVER watch Hyouka again for the first timeBoth anime and /a/ really were more fun back then. I truly don't think it's just rose-tinted glasses, either.
>>284798179>>284798398i love how sad and bittersweet the meaning of hyouka actually is in relation to the story
>>284793506I remember it was fucking boring.
>>284793506Little birds can remember
>>284819124>>284810542>>284798748>>284798716>>284793888KYS
>>284798716I watched it after the first season of Shoushimin and liked it enough to go read the unadapted novels, Oreki is a bit of a tryhard but not edgy, although I like Satoshi more.
>>284804929
>>284819957>mfw /a/ will turn to fujoshitI would prefer this than the schizo yurishit
>>284816962I don't remember the details but she got bullied on twitter and deleted everything
Was one of the few shows I rewatched during the pandemic, one of my favorites definitely. At the time I also discovered that someone had translated the novels that were available at the time, and that when the anime aired were not translated. So if you are very much into Hyouka and want some more go look for that.
>>284821448fair warning though the novels also end on an unsatisfying cliffhanger
>>284821592>alsothe anime ended on the clear conclusion that they fuck and have kids.
>>284821372What the fuck
>>284821696yeah about as clear as NGE
>>284798716As a Kyon clone, Oureki is way more interesting than any Kyon clone who came afterwards (the faggots from COTE, bunny girl senpai etc).He is presented far more pathetic than you would expect his type of edgelord character to be, his only shines because of his deduction skills and those scenes are more believable than some Lelouch shit of "I knew your every move you even did".However, Fukube and Mayaka carry the fucking show HARD, one is a certified 4chan autist and the other is a dream waifu.
>>284821965Oreki is not a Kyon clone, he's not even close.
>>284821965Oreki isn't a Kyon clone. If anything, Kyon is an Oreki clone since Oreki came first.
>>284822017wait wtf>koten-bu series 2001I always forgot this shit damn how in the hell.Still the similarities are undeniable, especially their relationship towards Haruhi/Chitanda respectively.
>>284821965Satoshi is a genki boy with hidden insecurities and Mayaka is a typical tsundere albeit
>>284819788Oreki is a tryhard at not being a tryhard.
>>284798609god I remember getting insta-boner while watching a simple scene of Irisu-senpai sitting with her back straight at the tea restaurant(?). she is pure SEX>>284816860weird... I didn't see the glasses-wearing priestess girl within your pic.
>>284793506Anyone here read the light novel?
>>284816280admitting you're wrong is cuckshit
>>284793506All I remember is I was sleeping the whole time.
>>284824689>weird... I didn't see the glasses-wearing priestess girl within your pic.She has a name at least and appears more than once
>>284826295Man, Irisu is insanely hot
>>284807390No, it's this onehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gS2-QQQSWKM
>>2848262954
>>284826913I can't choose between 4 and 7I need to let them fight to the death
>>284818814nah man, that shit was magic, watching kyoani stuff with /a/ between 2006 and 2013/14 are some of my fondest anime related memories.
I used to fap to mayaka daily, >>284793506
>>284793506I remember the New Year's episode every December.
>>284819411I kys myself when i watch Hyouka, from the boredom waves emanating from the screen.
>>284826295God look at Mayaka. She's so tiny. That's so hot.
>>2848262957
>>284826295one osanai please
>>284793506>>284830296
>>284826295https://danbooru.donmai.us/posts/9966249
Hyouka isn't forgotten >>284831908
>>284797582e
>>284831988Holy basedHe should convince them to make S2 now that he has an in
>>284807300
>>2848262952,4,7 nakadashi
I think it is the last Kyoani show I've watched unless I'm forgetting something.
unf...
>>284793506How could I forget best Kyoani girl of all time?
>>284836418you forgot konata?
>>284793506i do
