>>285133884Episode 14, what??
>>285133884This dumb faggot ruined the whole show!
>>285133884I miss them already.
>>285138103Should've tried being a depressed half cooked lesbian first
>>285138586smol fish
>>285139773Absolutely gorgeous in the winter uniform. Massive Foxe L when she told Fishe to stop wearing this.
>>285140218Fox is why we can't have nice things.
Foxe used to be cool man. What happened?
>>285140828Big monk
>>285138103Sorry, that's for Hinako only.
>>285142518Wet. Scaly. And all round ugly.That's what's under the sea serpent clothes.Now Tsubaki on the other hand...
>>285142700>Wet... all round...Didn't read anything else you said
>>285143415Based Hinako.
Looking forward to next week. I'm pretty surprised that they were able to get that VA for Tanuki, but she's perfect for after Foxe beats her into being cute.
An S2 would honestly be great. Even though I like the slower pace as well, I think things start developing a lot faster almost immediately after the point the anime finished, ironically enough. It's like as soon as Shiori gives herself mental permission to start changing and showing she cares about Hinako, she REALLY just goes for it full speed.
>>285143415based monster enjoyer hinako
>>285144766You can't stop a mermaiden in love.>>285143415Calm yourself Hinako.
>>285134213maybe try watching on only 2x speed instead of 4x next time, anon
tanuki needs correction
Miko and Hinako need to be bigger
>>285147845Hinako should be bigger, Miko is perfect as is and her being perflat makes her a thematic opposite to Shiori's bimbo build. Great visual story telling.>>285148672Adorable!
>>285148958You can induce breast growth by impregnating but Shiori can't do that.
>>285148987>Shiori can't do thatShe canonically can manipulate her biology. She can give herself a fish stick if she needs to pump Hinako's Hinakos up.
>>285148987She can just pass Hinako her fish eggs using youkai magic.
What would an S2 even look like?>1-3: bratty tanuki>4: hinako becomes evil>5: festival prep monster>6: hinako stops being evil>7: less emo Hinako, Azami cliffhangerSo 5-6 episodes after that to resolve the rest of the manga, assuming this is the finale. Does that feel like the right amount?
>>285151189First season was more or less following the 2-3 chapters per episode formula. Just apply the same logic.
Thank Gods the Shinjuku popup shop is restocking this weekend.
>>2851511894 to 6 are one arc, yeahS1: a wild Shiori appears arcMiko arcAyame arcreconciliation with Shiori arcS2:a wild Tanuki appears arcShiori is scared arcAzami arcShiori finale/ending arc
It's kind of odd how different human Shiori acts compared her mermaid era, even before she starts opening and acknowledging that she's changing herself. Obviously the ultra-cheerful :D-at-everything act is a facade, but even then, it seems like she genuinely enjoys behaving like that (when she's not doing it to pretend to not mind eating Hinako), being the boke, trolling Miko, and so on. I don't think that's all fake, but I don't know where the continuity goes between all of that personality now and how totally straightforward and humorless she used to be before taking a human form. Just in the right environment to express what was previously held back now?
>>285152963She is basically a cooldere
>>285152963She had 10 years to work out her own emotions since Hinako brought her to "this side".
>>285151189>>285152272Why are we assuming the finale is approaching?
>>285153230True, but she didn't seem much changed even with the isopod scene, and at that point she still isn't going to acknowledge - consciously, at least - that changing herself is an option until after the fight with Hinako. It'd be interesting to get an omake or an LN chapter or something showing some of her day-to-day during that time, and if she really had slowly started changing her thought patterns and interests even back then. From what Azami said about there being no way to find her without Hinako baiting her out, it does seem like she might have started staying away from humans afterwards.
>>285153263Sai said so in the interviewWe are entering the climax with Azami arcafter climax it is usually the ending
https://x.com/IlO_Qll/status/2009420329798758686
Don't shake the baby, Shiori!
>>285140828Domestication by loli.

>>285155561>Should I teach them about the mysteries of lifeIt's called talking with your fucking partner and being honest about your own emotions.
>>285155561Nah, Miko has her own needs and desires too. Praying on JCs is part of the tribute required to keep the sun around.
Don't pay attention to Erika, she'll just sit there and watch.
>>285156868>Don't pay attention to ErikaBad move by Azami. That gives Miko a window to seduce Erika.
>>285156961Miko is a motherfucker!
>>285157026That's a grave accusation, especially since her family was turned into pelts.
>>285152963I don't have the sauce but I thought there was something from the author saying that at least as far as the :D thing Shiori decided to try to emulate young Hinako's cheeriness as her basis for acting human?
>>285158522>bath towel in bath
>>285158716It's right in the name, where else would you use the bath towel
>feesh when Hinako will never :D her again:D>feesh when Hinako :) her:)
>isn't a yuri series>isn't interesting>isn't well-writtenWho is this for?
>>285160047Wrong thread anon.
>>285158201>Hey Hinako, remember how you used to :D as a child? You should do that again. No? Allow me to demonstrate.
>>285153362Even without that, Azami is Shiori's past finally catching up to her, right as Hinako is starting to smile again meaning the pledge chickens are also coming home to roost. Hard to see where you go after that without just pulling new stakes out of your ass like a shounen battler. Though I do hope we get a substantial denouement period like Gielfriends where we see their new relationship actually play out and deal with their future a bit, rather than just ending on Hinako choosing to live or after one chapter of epilogue later.
>>285160047For the ones who are afraid of real yuri like pic related.
>>285164170Excuse me, what chickens?
>>285165871These ones specifically.
>>285152963>>285153230>>285153263>>285153322I honestly think it's even more confusing for Miko. How did she go from being a sadistic torturerer to being ms helper to everyone and a genki girl?At least with Shiori, both her "honest" personality, her mermaid one, and her facade are tangentially connected through their aloofness.
Shiori has never really trolled Hinako. She likely just had the urge to physically attack Miko, but since that'd make Hinako sad, she resorted to verbal attacks as the next best thing and found out that she enjoys that quite a bit.
>>285158201I'm not sure on :D, but all of her smoothest moves with Hinako in the first half are just her emulating the actions loli Hinako did for her when she was injured.>>285167657In Miko's case, she was forcibly domesticated over generations. She's currently more or less like a dog in her love of humanity. Had she not been MONKED for years prior to his death and forced to view humanies as more than amusing chew toys, she'd still be the same sadist.>>285167900Yeah, pretty much. I'd add she's vicious with her words toward Miko because Miko's a disgrace to what yokai are. When they get on better terms, it's more teasing and she just does it because she enjoys it.
we like tanukis here
We hate those dumb faggots here.
>>285167657>I honestly think it's even more confusing for Miko.Not really? You can say that it's a big jump in terms of her morals, but there's a pretty clear progression in her personality. She acts like a surly teen being forced to do community service with the monk, slowly starts to take some of his lectures on board in a "might as well try it if there's nothing else to do anyway" kind of way, and starts being less closed-off and cruel as she realizes that other people are willing to extend their hands out to her. At least from what we've seen, Shiori enjoying poking at people and saying dumb things to get a reaction kind of just pops into existence the moment she takes human form, although it's not implausible that it was building up to some degree inside her offscreen, and it's just that the isopod scene was her in Serious Mode because of Hinako's blood.>>285169126>In Miko's case, she was forcibly domesticated over generations.She was only with the monk for a couple of years, and had the opportunity to leave immediately after. He showed her the path, but she's very much the one who chose to walk through it.
>>285167900Hinako is too strong.
>>285138103Grok it
>>285134673I would like figgies of fish and fox in their monster forms
Oh shit, it worked.
>>285172044the og artstyle doesn't use the white highlightremove that
>>285172044Did you really have to prompt it like that
>>285172078Yeah. Yeah I did.
>>285172044ass too bigshe is supposed to be a yamato nadeshiko
>>285172065
>>285172119I'm afraid to ask what the ass limit on a yamato nadeshiko is but surely Shiori's ballast tanks put her in an upper weight class.
I wonder how far gemini can go with this
>>285167900Feels like Shiori is only doing those verbal attacks because of Miko's stance who disliked her from the beginning. She doesn't care much about fox, but it never felt like she really wanted her dead outside of that short time when she learnt she is in fact a fox and could be dangerous to Hinako.
Fishes times is up
It's also funny that one of the cues for Azami having alienated herself from humanity is that she also does the :D, but there's no way she could have actually picked it up from Shiori. Monsters in this universe just spontaneously do that.Although I guess for Shiori it does seem like she sincerely enjoys being unserious like that, whereas for Azami it's 100% just fake.
Post some :D from the manga please
>>285173780
>>285173877I wonder how well she performs on testsespecially engrish or science
Miko :D + Shiori :D>>285173948She clearly just cheats them. Though I wonder what she does when a teacher calls her to answer questions.
https://x.com/er905322/status/2009637376470155664
Fun fact: Miko never addressed fishe by her name
>>285174213Gal girls are like thatnicknames all the way
Dogo Onsen main building
>>285172493Shiori doesn't need to specifically want someone dead (probably never did) to kill them. In her pre-lesbian-domestication mind, not caring for someone or even just being slightly annoyed is grounds enough to go through the motions of killing and eating someone. No hard feelings, it's just how it is. She's like a homesteader who originally just wanted to cull and eat the annoying rooster but couldn't because her wife likes it, so now she just occasionally kicks it and play-wrestles with it and wouldn't be caught dead admitting how much fun that is. And that she now actually kinda likes the little shit.
Erika sad?
>>285176683I loved this awful edit from anon.
