>>286652707i apologize sincerely for forgetting about daylight savings time
Why do you all like to bully Moegi so much? Funny because I don't see anyone else bullying Yuuki as much as they do Moegi, even though she's also a loser. What's with the double standard, huh?
fuck DST
>>286653113>even though she's also a loser.she has a talent
Tutorial will continue until understanding improves.
>>286653113Yuuki might lose sometimes, but Moegi is a born loser.
I don't want to be angry I just want to be happy.Please Ueno-sama don't be shit
Luckily the tutorial is over, so Ueno doesn't need to hold back the good stuff for later anymore.
let's try this againyuugi is imminent
Oh it's the retarded killers have superpowers that anon complained about not putting in last week.
Fuck you, you pretentious motherfucker.
>Airi flashbacku wot m8
Ueno's version of Han shot first.
Psycho killer, quest que cest.
Anons three weeks ago>This will be explained in CandlewoodsWell we're in Candlewoods and I'm even more confused than when it started. When does it start making sense?
>Can't even make Moegi an unrepentant killer, have to make the girl she shoots into a killer who also killed the other stumps first
>>286653750The tutorial has concluded, please figure the rest out yourselves.
Moegi is going to die like a bitch
>>286653750Carl had better things to do than explaining
Moegi couldn't even stab her parents right, she shot them from behind like a fucking bitch.
>Ueno makes Moegi look worse at every single turn>Doesn't have the guts to have Carl tell her she's a fucking scrub >Masturbatory fanfiction yet again
>Sumiyaka's ribcage ripped open
>Killing Moegi has made Carl have an existential crisisogey
It's ass, this shit is so ass.
It's one of those episodes where every scene is a compositiin kino.Moegi got the best episode of the show.
IT'S THE BEST EPISODE YETPSEUDS WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND KINO
Looks like no car openning (again). No-o-o-o!
Alright thread, make with the posting and make me feel better about this piece of shit anime.
Rate her ass.

Cute.
Looks like they took the coward's path and aren't going to show how Hakushi was ritualistically murdered.
>>286654278why does ajisai look at me like that
Goinʼ Carl.

>what if i have to fight one>the tutorial is over, please think for yourselfhilarious but also disappointed the original line is gone>didn't even dedicate 5 seconds to yuuki escaping the chaos while everyone fucking diesreally?what ueno did with the ribbons in the moegi fight was fine, the beginning was great, up until yuuki just randomly casually walks away for absolutely no reason to set up the bullet dodge. that part was pretty shit.all the moegi perspective of dying felt drawn out but maybe anime-onlies will feel differently. at least most of yuuki's thoughts were preserved, although it started to go off the rails into rewriting yuuki to be tragic again.>why do i have legs if i'm a ghost :(fuck off ueno
>>286654704Very lewd.
>>286654640Let the bunnies hit the floor.
>>286654244Did she die?
>>286654744This bnuuy is sleeping.
>>286654744No, she's fine
>>286654244That's kind of lewd, her titties are out.
>>286654744They all get fixed after the game, it's a theater play.
>>286654273Carl watching Yuki watch Yuuki
>>286654823Who would seriously think a killing game is real? In this day and age?
>>286654862Hahaha
imagine the angry nursing handjob (POV)
Love angry faces.
One shot— minus an arm. What?
>>286652664Yeah, I said WAOWTS when looking at Carl last episode.
>>286654862They already addressed this, that's why Moegi is having trouble getting the newfags used to murder. She's been dealt a bad hand consisting of first time players who don't yet believe they're actually in a killing game and as explained earlier some of them are tricked into participating. Please pay attention.
F cube.
>>286654988You dumb motherfucker.
>>286654988I'm making a reference to the LN
F Moegi.
Moegi lived like a bitch, died like a bitch and was a bitch.S to spit on her grave.
>>286655073LN carl vs Anime carl.
>>286655032Taken too soon.
Fuck I feel so bad for these girls.
>>286655073Moegi is the best girl.
>>286655032How did they do?>She felt a feeling in the corners of her eyes that she hadn’t experienced in a long time. The girl holding the morning glory pulled the trigger, firing a bullet that had sufficient killing power to pierce a human skull. In the brief moment it took for the bullet to travel the less than a foot of distance between the barrel of the gun and Moegi’s face—in the final moments of her life—Moegi was unmistakably in tears.>On the surface, she had achieved a convincing victory. However, Yuki had seen it. The face of the girl in her last moments. It was one hell of a parting gift. Up until now, Yuki had seen the dying faces of countless players, but unlike theirs, this Stump’s wasn’t filled with fear, despair, or animosity driven by a still-blazing will to fight. Nor had it displayed a foolish look born out of unwillingness to accept death.>The girl’s face had been colored with exasperation. It was the emotion that resulted from putting one’s entire body and soul into something yet still coming up short. The compensation to a poor person who had devoted everything they had to life yet still failing to achieve commensurate results. The honorable-mention prize of these death games. Yuki had no idea as to what was behind that expression, and even if she found out, she would not be able to empathize. Still, there was something there, something different from Yuki’s flimsy reasons for joining these games. Something different from the motives of one-and-done players. This girl had wanted to accomplish something by continuing to participate.>Whatever it was, Yuki had killed all chance of that happening. As someone merely drifting through life, she had trampled over it with her innate instincts.
>>286655073>talking shit about HER GFoh oh
>>286654024The scene with her and the birds was maybe the best one in the show so far.
>>286655114I'm surprised at how bad the prose is.
>>286654300I'd duck her if you know what I mean.
>>286654278tadaima~
It's hilarious how this series, airing on the same day as Oshi no Ko, has an incomparably lower budget and a simpler story and yet manages to be so much more enjoyable
>>286655234No matter how hard he tries, how much he wants to be, he will never be Shinbo.
>>286655032>>286655114Poor Moegi :(
>>286655199Wife.
Harrowing shots of all the dead bunnies. How could you kill all these cuties?
Another F. Also another lewd. Carl touches dead boobies.
>>286655257Well, the source material for ShibbyYuggy is actually good, unlike Oshitnoko. I sincerely hope Aka never writes again.
This episode made Yuuki's freak-out in Golden Bath more understandable.
>>286655331I miss the threads before everyone gave up, though.
>>286655375See, everyone was doubting Golden Bath but it's actually been made better now.
Another F.
>>286655375It's almost like Yuuki's determination wavering is more engaging when you have the context of where Yuuki's determination came from in the first place.
>>286655414Mistook:
>How do I have legs when I'm a ghost
>>286655313The heart.
>>286655414>she's sitting on a stumpueno does it again
>>286655442Hakushi’s body—her head, abdomen, arms and legs, even each individual finger and strand of hair—had been thoroughly disfigured. Blood that had transformed into white fluff by the Preservation Treatment covered nearly every inch of her flesh. Even the inside of the body had been mutilated. Around the corpse, rib bones had been placed like graduations on an analog clock, the small intestine was spread out in the shape of an aerial view of a race-car track, and organs were scattered about like rocks dotting a landscape garden. Suspense stories had a common trope in which corpses conveyed some grotesque message, but as far as Yuki could tell, there was no indication of the psychopath trying to grab attention or convey anything. Instead, she concluded that the scene was simply the result of a murderer wanting to mutilate a corpse.
>>286655479Bravo.
>>286655305Clothes too tight please understand.
>>286655487Reads like something an edgy teenager would come up with.
Is Yuuki the only survivor of Candle Woods?
>>286655524I wonder if we still have time in the last episode for Ueno to add an anime-original scene declaring that Kyara hates tight clothes because she was molested or something.
>>286655588I'm waiting for the scene where Kyara points at the screen and tells the audience they're in the wrong for wanting an exciting death game anime and they should be ashamed of themselves and that all males are bastards.
>>286655473A boob.
This episode was pretty straightforward, huh.
>>286655583No, there are 2 and if you want spoilers 3 survivors.
>>286653113Anon likes bullying the girl he likes.
>>286655588>she was molestedBy me.
I have to read the novel and manga after every episode because otherwise I'd believe that things were this lame all along and I was wrong and it wasn't actually good.
>>286653113Carl is us, Carl is relatable, at the same time I also want to have sex with Carl.
The main problem with Ueno's show don't tell method is he also has to tell his stupid fixation with the nighthawk story over and over and over again.
>>286654912Love Carla
>>286655804Director-sama is based.
>>286655479She could sit on my stump if you know what I mean.

Ueno actually toned down Moegi's jobbing, although he also made her more pathetic.The two walls of gray combined to form a single whole and enveloped Moegi. Her vision was reduced to nothing.She heard frantic footsteps.Moegi instinctively pulled the trigger of the morning glory, firing twice into the crossroads. The shots didn’t result in any groans, and she realized that the footsteps were not approaching her—they were heading away. The phantom girl was running deeper into the maze.She’s getting away…It took no more than a few seconds for that thought to be refuted. The footsteps once again got closer, but they were approaching from a different direction. The girl must have circled around to try to attack Moegi from behind. Unwilling to let that happen, Moegi spun around.A larger rustling sound echoed out from nearby. Moegi remembered there was a hairband connected to ribbons on the ground, so she knew not to mistake that noise for the phantom girl’s footsteps. No matter how distracted she was, she could tell them apart. Exactly. Whether or not there was a smoke screen or the enemy was circling around behind her, it didn’t change the fact that Moegi had the advantage of standing in a straight passageway. After all, their attack range was completely different. No person, however experienced, could go up against two firearms completely unarmed—“—Ah!” A noise escaped her mouth.All the warmth drained from her body in an instant.She remembered—at the start of the battle, she had been carrying three morning glories.She remembered—she had dropped the first after firing it next to her ear.She remembered—the phantom girl had kicked it away.So where was it now?
>>286655906We have Carla and the Japanese have Death Ajisai
>>286655972Consecutive gunshots rang out.Half of them came from Moegi, while the other half came from someone else.Moegi was in the middle of a narrow passageway, one so cramped that it was impossible to get around a corpse without stepping over it and even more impossible to evade an attack. With both girls now wielding morning glories, the tables had turned. One of them stood in the center of a passageway barely wide enough to shuffle around. The other stood by a corner, where it would be a simple task to conceal her body. It was as plain as day which of them would win the shoot-out.Moegi took bullets to her shoulder, stomach, and right leg.She couldn’t even adopt a defensive posture when she fell over.If there was anything she deserved praise for, it would be that she didn’t let the pain show in her voice. However, she couldn’t hide the fact that she had collapsed. She took another bullet. She couldn’t tell where she had been shot anymore. Pain coursed through the entirety of her body, as if every part was vying for attention.A searing sensation assaulted her nerves. Her entire being felt on the verge of exploding.Two thoughts filled every nook and cranny of her brain. The first was that she was in pain. The second was that she wanted to escape the pain. But in the back of her mind, she knew that even if she tried to run, she wouldn’t be able to escape. Moegi used both of her hands to grope around for the morning glory she had dropped.The next moment, a high heel trampled on her right hand.The muzzle of a gun appeared before her eyes.
>>286655945No ribs, no sexy.
>>286655917>>286655945How did she lose so hard?
>>286655906It's a Kyara/Chara situation.
>>286655945rooks the same to me
>>286655999The training has concluded, please figure out the rest yourselves.
>>286655906carla is kyara because the production team romanized it to chara
>>286654932Fuck, I now remember violet everslop.
>>286656080
I wish I were a swan
>>286656012Is it? Like this is on the anime official site.
>>286655945I'm so fucked up...
>>286656109
>>286655265I think it's good that he tries though, but he is very clearly inferior
>>286656138Ueno is Moegi and Carl is Shinbo.
>>286656125i believe chara was in the english captions for the candle woods pv, and maybe one other place i forgot
>>286655972>>286655992and justifying Moegi killing Hikawa by showing her as a murderer instead of having Moegi kill more stumpsMoegi had intended to kill Hikawa from the very start. She had decided to kill anyone she came across, Bunny or Stump. Although killing fellow Stumps made no progress toward clearing the game, there were not enough Bunnies to go around. As things stood, fellow Stumps were rivals fighting over pieces of a small pie. Currently, Moegi had on her three morning glories, two bamboo leaves, and three pine cones. She had taken each of them from a Stump. Although she had yet to kill any Bunnies, her Stump kill count already exceeded five. To prevent anyone else from culling more Bunnies and to get her hands on as much equipment as possible, Moegi had mowed down her teammates with ruthless determination.
>>286656012I think whoever does subs for amazon just really dislikes hepburn even though it's the most common romanization standard.
God damn, did these Carlas get even bigger since last week?
>>286656125PV had it.
Are we still on par for 70% survival rate for this game
>>286656109Being forced to stab her parents repeatedly leading into her forcing other people to stab each other repeatedly is much better writing
is there ever an overarching plot or is it always unconnected death games?
“Don’t fight against a hardened killer.”That was a lesson Yuki had been taught once upon a time.“This industry attracts plenty of bad apples. There may come a time when you have a run-in with a bloodthirsty psychopath…but don’t even think about engaging with them. Do everything in your power to avoid a direct confrontation.”Those words had come from—to use a conventional term—her mentor. Even in a profession as deadly as Yuki’s, mentor-protégé relationships existed. Just like any veteran in the business, Yuki had been shown the ropes at one point in time.“Amount of game experience, the specs of your gear—none of that stuff matters. The moment players like you or me enter a battle against a crazed psychopath, our chances of victory fall to zero.”“…I don’t follow,” Yuki protested. “Even I’ve taken lives with my own two hands before. Not to mention, I’ve survived plenty of games that involved player-on-player combat. That’s more than enough for me to be seen as a coldhearted killer in the eyes of society, yet you’re saying I can’t win against one?”
>>286656210Yeah, if I remember right Moegi adds her own justification that the other girl would have done the same if she showed an opening but there wasn't any evidence.
>>286656290“You can’t. In fact, your experience puts you at an even greater disadvantage. You’re built for survival, not killing. It’s a completely separate set of skills. Think of it like the difference between a manga artist and an illustrator. A bodybuilder and an athlete. A martial artist and a gangster. The aim of these games is not to kill—it’s to survive. We’ve trained our bodies and minds around that very goal, so our skills won’t be useful on a different playing field. Nobody can hope to compete with someone who specializes in murder. Not even top death-game pros like us stand a chance against an amateur player who’s murdered someone in the heat of the moment. There’s no path to victory, so avoid a fight at all costs.”“What if I’m left with no other choice?” Yuki asked. “And it’s the only way to clear the game. What should I do then?”“Training is over” The answer was cold and heartless. “Figure the rest out yourself.”
>>286656218how often do you think she accidentally knocks something off the table with her breasts and then snaps and has to kill everyone in sight?
It is imperative that Moegi is raped
>>286656210Like I said, Ueno has done his best to create his own Han shot first.
Here's how the don't fight a serial killer conversation ends when Ueno doesn't kick you out of the tutorial:“…I don’t follow,” Yuki protested. “Even I’ve taken lives with my own two hands before. Not to mention, I’ve survived plenty of games that involved player-on-player combat. That’s more than enough for me to be seen as a coldhearted killer in the eyes of society, yet you’re saying I can’t win against one?”“You can’t. In fact, your experience puts you at an even greater disadvantage. You’re built for survival, not killing. It’s a completely separate set of skills. Think of it like the difference between a manga artist and an illustrator. A bodybuilder and an athlete. A martial artist and a gangster. The aim of these games is not to kill—it’s to survive.

Not even top death-game pros like us stand a chance against an amateur player who’s murdered someone in the heat of the moment. There’s no path to victory, so avoid a fight at all costs.”“What if I’m left with no other choice?” Yuki asked. “And it’s the only way to clear the game. What should I do then?”“Accept your fate.” The answer was cold and heartless. “You can only pray that you never find yourself in that situation.”

>>286656334I can't believe we got "The tutorial is over" 2.
>>286656218they grow with every Carl post
>>286656288Overarching plot is that Yuuki is sad.
I have to give it to the director, the screens are a really cool visual
It's all going to be shit. Losing her eye is going to be shit, finding the gun in the tanuki is going to be shit, the declaration of 99 games is going to be shit, killing Kyara is going to be shit, stabbing her so hard her fist is inside her guts is going to be shit, Hakushi being alive is going to be shit, it's all shit.
>>286656654The season 2 announcement, however, is going to be hype.
Anyone else feel depressed after watching? I want to crawl into bed and forget the rest of the day.
>>286656760Yeah it's really despressing.
Holy fuck, that first ambush. Carl is so fucking hot.
>>286656694The most I can stand is a Cloudy Beach movie. I'm praying there's no s2. That means there will be, because the universe hates me and nothing will ever be good.
>>286656760Yeah. It reminds me that the anime will end soon and eventually nobody will make Carl threads anymore.
>>286656827If there's a Cloudy Beach movie, Ueno can't push it back until after Royal Palace. Trust in the plan.
>>286656863I don't want Royal Palace animated. That's the one game I don't want Ueno to touch.
>>286656760Best girl Moegi died, it's only natural.
carl is so kakkoi
>>286657004Speaking of which, the title of this episode is Goin' Fuckering right?
>>286657021Goin Carl
Wtf is even going on, other than Ajisai being a serial killer
I watched it.
>>286657021Goin' FishingTHIIIIIIIIIIIS BIG
>>286657095That's basically it, you've got it.
>>286657095The plot has ended, please make up the rest yourselves.
is moegi actually dead? :(
I can't believe that piece of shit Renako got a good anime but Ajisai's anime is lacking and a disappointment.
let the bodies hit the floorlet the bodies hit the floorlet the bodies hit the floorlet the bodies hit the FLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOR
>>286657206Mishiro and Moegi will return next episode. They've never actually shown them to be dead.
>>286657213t. Satsuki
Yuki ignored the voice coming from the depths of her heart.“Tamamo, I want you to do the same.” Yuki finally reached the crux of the matter.“It won’t do you any good if I keep teaching you forever. This will be the last time we meet like this. I’m terminating our relationship as mentor and protégée. The tutorial has concluded. Please figure the rest out yourselves.”
>>286657303Motherfucker
>>286657303i want you to know that you're a bad person
Yuki huffed and puffed while on top of Tamamo’s body. She looked down in front of her. Everything was dark. Yet Yuki knew for certain Tamamo was still there. Her soul was still intact. Tamamo wasn’t dead, only unconscious. That meant what awaited Yuki was a task she had wanted to avoid. Nighthawk lost all hope, and closing his wings began to fall to the ground. When his weak legs were just a yard from the ground he suddenly twisted back up into the heavens like a whirlwind. Upon reaching the high heavens he spun around like an eagle attacking a bear and stood his feathers on end. He let out a high, high screech. His voice was like a hawk’s. The other birds asleep in the fields and the forest all woke up and, shaking, looked curiously up into the starry sky."Why do I have legs, if I'm a ghost?" Yuki asked.
>>286657213her punishment is applied as we speak
moegi is still alive, right?
I am not daijobu-jobu
>>286657389There's a truck load of cotton around, maybe we could stuff some back into her and Sumiyaka and Hakushi?

>>286657599Anon has already spoiled too much like a true faggot. You'll see next week if they decide to show it. Or you can just read the manga.
>>286657599It was explained in tutorial.
>>286657626>if they decide to show it.It's pretty obvious that the entire reason Ueno saved Candle Woods for last is because he thinks this exact moment is peak, how off-screen can he possibly go?
>>286657626At this point spoilers don't matter, you can never predict what Ueno will or won't show.
>>286656846She's literally me...
The employee had no idea what made that possible. Hakushi had undergone a body modification procedure not officially sanctioned by the game organizers. Compared to the Preservation Treatment and the psycho killer, who had embedded armor inside her head, what Hakushi was capable of was out of this world. It was physically impossible for a human body to stand without muscles or bones. Her revival could only be explained by some mechanism that transcended the laws of physics—perhaps it was even a form of sorcery. Yet, it wasn’t impossible. She was a one-in-five-hundred-trillion superhuman, after all. It wouldn’t be strange for her to have been possessed by one or two gods.
>>286657585Same.
When did Ajisai become so sexy? I didn't like her in her show. Does evilness really make females hotter?
Moegi is just like me...
>>286657769>Does evilness really make females hotter?Yeah, although it's way better when they're interesting enough to scheme instead of just retarded and impulsive.
Damn Moegi was in love with Kyara...
>>286657769You know all those fantasies Renako was having about her being a total bitch? That was her projecting her fetishes. Yamisai is sex incarnate.
>>286657585Same. She was written as a long-term rival and got killed off for shock value.

>>286658675You know? I kept waiting for the finishing shot in today's episode. I guess it was out of theme with the whole "survive" thing and anime Carl just let her slowly drift into death.
>>286658706
I don't think even 4x speed could make this shit watchable.
>>286658675The author is so blessed to have this mangaka

Stop it, Director-san.

>>286658951The manga posting for this episode has concluded, please post the rest yourselves.
>>286655032RIP Moegi
>>286659009How is her hair so fluffy
>>286654137Kicked
>>286659127Some people are just born blessed but few know how to flaunt it. You could lose an entire Moegi in there.
>>286659175Keeping a spare Moegi and Riko in your hair for sex later.
>>286659127This extra strap that splits her up the middle is super lewd
very weird showI can't believe Kokuto-san died just like thatalso they're all dressed like maids but I'm pretty sure they're not actually maids
I feel like an idiot for defending the directors show don't tell method when he went ahead and did it and made the killing of Moegi's parents some lame shit compared to how the manga portrayed it
>>286655257What kind of drugs do I need to achieve this level of delusion?
>>286659292Reality
I thought this was going to be a really gay show.Just watched ep1. Very nice and interesting.
>>286659292To be fair, dabbing on Aka’s shit writing is a low bar.
>>286659292He's not wrong.
>>286659316It is pretty gay, but probably not in the way you expected
Imagine if we had Dogakobo for Shiboyugi instead. Wouldn't that have been the dream. What a beautiful future.
>>286659271hey at least you realized it before the last episode
So how did Carl's mentor die? You guys told me Candle Woods would explain everything. They just showed her corpse and that was that. NOTHING was explained except that it was offscreened.
>>286659367I can't believe DEEN is even still in business. They destroy everything they touch.
>Hire a selaiopI don't get it, pretty sure that wasn't part of the tutorial.
>>286659396The tutorial has concluded, please figure the rest out yourselves.
>>286659396Neither show nor tell.
Ueno leaving me as empty feeling inside as Carl does with this episode. What the was that. I don't know if I hate this episode, or love it. The budget has been reduced to nothing. Everything was cut. Carl somehow carried the episode with her bare hands. Moegi did more than in the manga and LN, so that was nice. The short training scene at the start was pure kino. The reused animations sucked. The voice acting continues to be some of the best I've ever heard in anime. This show is taking me for a trip. I'm speechless.
>>286659396Serial killers are invincible and have magic powers were you not paying attention to the start of the episode?
>>286659396I honestly can't imagine how you can't tell what happened after seeing Kyara next to Hakushi's flayed body. Unless you mean how Hakushi could have lost in a fight?
>>286659346I was expecting school girl yuri gay.
>>286659196It's needed in order to contain her massive bush.
>>286659467Someone post that Mishiro image.
>>286659467There was a brief period in Volume 5 where we had something like that and it was beautiful. It's too bad Yuuki is an irredeemable death game addict.
>>286653750i might be one of the only people who prefer the manga, it feels so much more like gantz or danganronpa or kamisama no iutoori rather than the more monogatari tone that the anime did,the manga's way of doing things was more clear since they put the flash backs first before going into the present which made it more confusing the way the anime did it,also for some reason they removed their conversations with their assigned attendants for the games for some reason, which makes things even more confusing for anime only viewers.they were supposed to get multiple debriefs
Is the schizo watching Candle Woods as a play the way to set up for Ghost Carl?
>>286659450Everyone's sorry for Moegi and no one's sorry for Sumiyaka...
>>286659467I love this cute girls doing cute things show.
>>286656210what's the win condition here?
>>286659513LN>Manga>Shit>Doodoofaeces>Anime
>>286659518I barely knew her and I still miss her...
Oh noes!
>>286659514That ultimately has different reasons, but I imagine every bit of trauma she's gone through has at least contributed to her broken mind.
>>286659533Bunnies:SurviveStumps:Kill 5 Bunnies
HIRE A SELAIOR
Director-sama delivered kino againPlague on the haters
Anime enjoyers lose their rights to their foreskin
>>286659550eh the anime is good for an original,think of it like fate staynight vs heavens feel or unlimited blade works. its so different than the manga or ln to the point its a completely different series,you just need to pretend that nisin ino or whatever wrote this and view this as another nonsensical monotagari spin offs with style over substance.
>>286659455>Unless you mean how Hakushi could have lost in a fight?yeah, this
>>286659611Nisio writing would be a lot more entertaining, Shinbo director would be a lot more fun and have more headtilts. We've got Walmart amateur writer and Temu Shinbo.
The anime might be too high IQ for most retards on this general.
>>286659580So Carla basically ruined all the stumps' wincons by killing all the bunnies herself.
>>286659513>>286659658>>286659639also am I the only one who is EXTREMELY annoyed by the fact that the anime had this whole game take place somewhere in the city? or whatever this weird amusement park thing was.because the entire manga's ark had the thing take place entirely in the wilderness with a giant maze similar to the one in the maze runner books, there wasn't a single building of structure there? i know im nitpicking but it feels like its breaking my suspension of belief by having this massive maze structure literally in the middle of the fucking city? like wtf?
>>286659658To be honest you have to have a very high IQ to enjoy Shiboyuugi
>>286659660Isn't she the best?
>>286659658let's talk about art on a comparable level to this anime
>>286654244My wife...my beautiful wife...
>>286659681My headcanon is that they're in abandoned buildings on the outskirts of a city, because in the future life is shit
>>286659658>>286659698You really don't need to be smart at all. You just need to pay attention. Asking for that seems to be more than what the average viewer is capable of, since Netflix is trying to make all their shows watchable on monitor 2.
>>286659613She's an old woman by death game standards. 96 games have taken a toll on her and she's lost her edge. At least that's the explanation as far as I remember. Also Kyara was a total abnormality. Many of the other bunnies were experienced players and veterans and it's not like they just rolled over either.
>>286659727and that made the stumps have to kill each other. . .
>>286655029>I'm making a reference to the LNdon't fucking tell me that the ln is going to pull some insane shit like how its all in her fucking head due to being a neet orphan loser and this is just her fantasy or some bullshit like that?albeit the ln isn't even finished so this isn't even a spoiler, but it would be AOT levels of trash ending if it did.
>>286659751Here, Anon. Have this. It's gonna be okay :c
>>286659771Yes, yes, surely the anime is not just shit. You are the chosen intellectual. You alone understand the director. Very good anon, very good.
>>286659812No, it's not that. You will need to read the LN, but it's absolutely not that. It's really funny though.
>>286659775so basically the game was balanced by having the stumps be inexperienced, but Carla Von armed with a gun, pine bombs, and a killer mindset, along with the element of surprise, managed to take down most of the bunnies that were left alive. I could also argue that at this point Hakushi isn't really that good at fighting anymore (probably due to her body taking a toll throughout 96 games), and it's better at organizing instead.
This filters about as much people as monkey baseball.
>>286659824>I don't like watching anime. >I like playing Uma Musume while having anime on in the background.
I ARE DEIAKTOL
Why did Carl go away here? She could easily go for the kill. Was she just fucking with Moegi? She almost got shot.
>>286659950I like watching anime. I just don't like this anime. It's a very poor adaptation. I was expecting an adaptation. Even trying to dissociate and treat it as an anime original it has too many flaws to ignore. I can't forgive it.
>>286656109So she is forced/coerced to kill her parents in the source rather than choosing to do it herself? I think I like it better that Kyaru was hands off in the anime and let Moegi come to her own conclusion on that.
>>286659981She killed her, but Ueno decided it'd be kino to leave it up to your imagination so I'm going to believe that Carl chose to skullfuck Moegi to death.
>>286659999She didn't have a choice in the anime either, Kyara was going to kill her if she didn't kill her parents. Do you not remember the scene with the crab? She asked if Moegi had killed her parents yet, she was putting pressure on her for that.
>>286654640Right's body is more intact
>>286659982It was made with 20$, but that doesn't make this episode awful.
>How did Chie die?idk, you're not allowed to see it>How did Azuma and the other girls in the bath die?idk, you're not allowed to see it>How did Mishiro die?idk, you're not allowed to see it>How did Moegi die?idk, you're not allowed to see it>How did Hakushi die?idk, you're not allowed to see it
>>286656760Moegi dying made me sick. It's not right that an anime character can try their best and still fail.
>>286660025No, I meant when Carl knocked Moegi down.
>>286660103>Mishiro >MoegiWe literally saw these though.
How is the OST so damn good? Who's doing it?
>>286659950I'm playing OSRS and watching this at the same time
>>286660103The murder has concluded. Please figure the rest out yourselves.
>>286660103>>How did Moegi die?>idk, you're not allowed to see itHaters will never beat the "didn't watch the anime" allegations
>>286660133But you weren't allowed to see it. Those were very intimate moments between Carl and another girl.
>>286660103To be fair, the novel doesn't show Mishiro dead either.Yuki stepped out of the water. “Good game,” she whispered in a voice low enough for no one else to hear. She didn’t check to see if Mishiro was alive or dead.
>>286660103Moegi was left to bleed out, it was in the episode.
>>286659009Only a flesh wound
Ok I've decided.The anime is dogshit. I'm reading the manga instead.
>I offscreen kills to put food on the tableLOL
>>286660113I'm just laying in bed, staring at the ceiling.
>>286659660The stumps would die too anyway
>>286660103>Very injured>Arm blown off>Talks about taking her last breath>The anime cuts to a leaf falling off a treeI hate retards like you who can't understand basic fucking symbolism and need to be spoonfed everything.

>>286660103who the fuck is mishiro
Shibou Yuugi de Meshi wo Kuu is an allusion to the prostitution of young girlsPast traumas and acceptance of the "high-risk job"Many participants enter due to financial desperation or traumas, similar to prostitution where vulnerabilities (poverty, prior abuse, dependency) lead to accepting extreme risks for money. In the work, Yuuki is the exception (a cold veteran), but newcomers are portrayed as anxious and dependent. This echoes cycles of exploitation: prior trauma facilitates entry into abusive systems. Nuance: the anime/manga emphasizes a "professional" choice (Yuuki sees it as a career), but for others it’s a last resort — a valid parallel to voluntary vs. forced prostitution.The characters have traumas related to their past, almost all of them, to accept a ‘job’ like this.The very fact that the survival game pays a large sum reminds me of prostitution, where, whether they want to or not, women put their lives at risk in exchange for exorbitant amounts.=FACT OF ONE ‘RECOMMENDING AND BRINGING’ OTHERSThis was one of the most evident clues that makes me think of this parallel: all the girls there seem to get trapped/depend on another, as we saw in episode 8 where the protagonist has a tutor, and in the past arc where there was also dependency, and one seems to influence the other, as happens in the world of prostitution.This reminds me of prostitution networks where "veterans" recruit/induce newcomers (promises of protection/money). In summaries of episodes 7-8, there are toxic dynamics (e.g.: Mishiro manipulating Riko in a destructive partnership, intense rivalry with Yuuki). This "mentorship" can be read as grooming or a cycle of exploitation, where the "tutor" benefits (victories, status) while the newcomer remains trapped.
>>286660069It just feels like a different kind of pressure because at that point she could have tried to run away later or warn her parents if she wanted to back out. But she instead kills them in cold blood by her own choice. If Kyaru is in the room with her when it happened then there was never any room for hesitation because if she backed out there then we know Kyaru would kill them all. It kind of puts more blame on Kyaru instead of Moegi owning it imo.
>>286660347--PEDOPHILES BEHIND THE SCENESIt hasn’t been shown yet how they ‘discover’ this game, but we already know that rich old men are behind the scenes who also have maids/employees, which also makes me think of the Epstein case. Okay, networks of prostitution managed by old millionaire magnates exist in every country, but the timing matched very well with the anime’s premiere and the leaks of Epstein’s list.The allusion to deaths also makes me think that this business carries a risk, and it’s not always associated with physical death, but mental as well.-TRAUMAS AND WOUNDSThe girls who survive are left with eternal trauma, and yet they continue ‘playing’, all for money or because they feel trapped in this environment — something far too common in those in the world of prostitution.LACK OF BLOOD AND BODY RECONSTRUCTIONThe lack of blood may be something purely conceptual and artistic, but it can also be seen as something ‘without traces’, where these girls lose their lives, are wounded, but there are no traces or signs that they are suffering. There are women out there in this life and no one suspects, and the reference to the ‘reconstruction’ of organs and bodies also led me to think of this.It symbolizes invisible traumas: suffering without external marks visible to society. Women in sexual exploitation often hide physical/psychological wounds — "reconstruction" as a metaphor for disguising damage.
Thank you chatgpt
>>286658865>>286658894>>286658922>>286658951>>286659009this is kinda why I liked the manga better,the manga portrays these games more akin to gantz or danganronpa with all the deaths literally showing up like dangan murder scenes as well as the organization acting like monokuma constantly making fun of her and being snarky, while in the anime they are faceless business women or whatever.
>>286660383ALL OF THEM BEING BEAUTIFULOkay, this might just be a resource to make the manga/anime attractive — and it probably is —, but it also coincides well with the fact that 90% of escorts and content sellers are at least minimally beautiful. So far, we haven’t seen any who deviate from the standard in the work.-CLOTHINGThis is the most evident point for me. It doesn’t seem like the author likes fan service or to appeal, but choosing ‘fetish’ clothes for the girls is at the very least suspicious. Okay, the people behind the game are sadistic, but this has an extreme sexual fetishistic tone, something that women in real life also submit to.-ALL ARE YOUNGAnother fact that many may consider just fan service is that all of them are under 30 and over 18 (possibly including minors as well).It doesn’t seem like just fan service to me.-99 GAMESThe fact that the protagonist wants to complete 99 games demonstrates that they set a limit to how far they can go, the same as what happens with girls who say it ‘will be the last job’ but never manage to quit.
Thanks ChatGPT
The manga is superior.Fuck your symbolism, just explain it to me in a clear and concise way.
>>286660329Moegi is just us trying to get by irl and fail. Carl is just like us when we succeeded but still feel depressed.
the show would be kino if it was about Carl's prostitution redo of healer style
>>286660383>>286660347EDIT: and I forgot to say this butthanks for reading my r*ddit post
>>286658706>Tongue clickThe absolute disrespect from Carl!
>>286660271What a coincidence, it's stare at nothing time for me too!
>>286660424Imagine someone's still playing as a brain in a jarThey just love death games that much
Where are beautiful arts with Moegi?
>>286659681>also am I the only one who is EXTREMELY annoyed by the fact that the anime had this whole game take place somewhere in the city? or whatever this weird amusement park thing was.yes only you, because you keep thinking manga is the source material
>>286658781TL;DR for that chapter and this episode
>>286660591Moeg-ant, just trying her best.
>>286660564What I'm getting from this is Carl likes to be naked.
>farding
That scene with the birds flying around Moegi looked really nice.
>>286660728Kek
>>286660770Those weren't real birds, right? Since they're inside. So are the organizers just fucking with her and deciding to troll wherever they can?
She looks better with her hair down
>>286660813Another stupid low IQ filtered.
Imagine if this was an original rather than an adaption.
He single handedly exposed the tourists and retards who larp about being fans of the source material but don't pay attention to either.
>>286659930It's a death game here in the world of Candle Woods,played by the great bunnies, which started when the first car and candleand the rules of the game were handed down to them.In the death games, a number of great players arosefrom among the nameless girls,whose faces and appearances all looked the same.They included the legendary homicidal maniac queen,who killed an unprecedented, record-breaking80 cars in one year, Kyara;the one who bested the god of game, the intellectual queen who mapped the logic of every trap, Hakushi;the greatest apprentice of the homicidal maniac, Moegi;Then came the golden age of the Candle Woods event.A miracle bunny drove alongand shattered those previous legends one by one--the ghost, Carl!This maverick of the league was the only one with blue eyes,who, despite weathering ugly discrimination and crafty persecution,triumphed over them with overwhelming talent, ultimately becoming a hero,and a symbol of hope for the girls putting food on tables!Although a rookie, Carl put the brakes to the queen, homicidle maniac!Breaking her car as well as her heart, Carl drove her to retirement.Then, with her mighty, wise mind,Carl led herself to a grim victory,preventing Moeka's game streak from reaching 11.The public accepted this new winning style,and there was no doubt in anybody's mindthat the era of Ghost Carl had begun! But then......that great tragedy, when a near-perfect survival was foiled,and an eye was killed, took place!
>>286660911If it was, it would have a much larger budget, but we wouldn't have any LN or manga. That's a tough choice.
>>286660932It's like I said, nobody was gassing up this mid ass LN until the haters starting talking shit about the anime.
will moegi somehow survive?
>>280918870 The first mention of the series in the archives. Y'all did not give a fuck about this piece of shit until the anime came along. Don't try to act superior now. You're all the same newfags.
>>286661033Yes. In my dreams.
>>286661141:(
I feel so empty. What do I do now...
>>286661212Please figure it out yourself
Why couldn't you have saved Moegi, /a/?Why did she had to suffer?
>>286660506Where does Carl get off copying my schedule?She cant even be listless and aimless on her own, she has to copy me
>>286661251I have work to do but my soul feels like it left my body
>whole episode is just the perspective of a non-MC character learning she's not the MCThis is going to bother me for days
I don't get the troon-out over this not being a standard death games show every week
>>286661455People pretending to be source materialfags have been eternally buttmad.
>>286656760Me too, bro. Seeing all this bloodshed makes me feel empty and sad. I was used to it but something really made me feel bad compared to the other games.>>286655032>>286656846>>286655114>>286660113Part of me is sad that Moegi died the way she did, but the other part of me thinks she deserved it for being an idiot and killing her teammates, not to mention acting really stupidly when she faced Yuuki. But I can't help myself but not feel devastated by her death.
>>286655032did not give a single shit about this loser
>Kills Kinko, feels nothing, warui na>Kills Moegi, spirals out, questions her own existenceCarl is relatable
>>286655032Moegi deserved so much better... ;_;
>>286661572Moegi > Kinko confirmed
>>286661572Kinko was game 29. Carl had broken a lot more hearts on the way since Moegi.
>>286661572>Carl spiraling out over everything>Doesn't show it on her face>Pretends everything is okayThis is just how I operate every day. It's too real
Maybe Kyara wasn't the best mentor for a sweet, sensitive young girl like Moegi after all...
>>286660942>we wouldn't have any LN or mangaGood.Anyway, my point here is how differently it would be treated. When you have a show that attempts a show don't tell (or a don't show don't tell), it loses its purpose when you have source material that doesn't do the same, assuming the viewer is already familiar with it or interacts with people familiar with it. Anything left vague is at best confirmed from the source material, or at worst, considered lacking because it's present in the source but missing from the adaption. Faithfulness is considered a virtue by many, and deviation from it a sin. People who like the source material are likely to prefer something similar to the source material. An adaption that takes many liberties is likely to be unappreciated by people who weren't looking for something like that, but rather something closer to the source material. A lot of the discussion boils down to how this thing was like that in the LN but like this in the anime. If the only choice was to judge the anime based on its own merits, the reception would probably be better and the discussion more engaging, not because the anime is """deep""", but because of vastly different expectations.
>>286661669I would still let her kill me after a nursing handjob
>>286661680But the show is faithful to the source material. The main plotpoints and characters are the same, but the way they're portrayed and how they get there are altered a bit. The original author even worked on the script.I don't think anybody expected the kind of adaptation we got, but it's still hits most of the time.
>>286661851Don't bother arguing with them, they're not actually fans.
>>286661851>The original author even worked on the script.This is important to remember. If you like the original novel you should love the anime since the author is working on and approves of it compared to the manga he has nothing to do with and is soulless contract work
The direction of this anime makes me miss when we'd get cinematic feeling anime like Durarara.
>>286661572I mean, everyone feels sorry for Moegi. I doubt there were this many people feeling sorry for Kinko.Kinko shouldn't have even participated in that game to begin with. Moegi had actually a very hard life which amounted to nothing.
>>286661036>you can't prefer the ln if the anime prompted you to read itjust wondering, what's it like to be this retarded?
>>286654884Blowing my load onto Carl as I suck on her Carls
>>286661669>maybe the lunatic psycho-bitch wasn't the best mentor for a frail confused girl who only wanted to be acknowledged by someoneWho could have thought...Kyara a shit.A SHIT.
>>286662063This is cinematic, it's amazing.
>>286662115I accept your concession.
>tired of waiting>read rest of manga for Candle Woods (~2-3 minutes)>that twistH-holy shit...Candle Woods...explained EVERYTHING at the end...kino...
>>286662207in a way it's a genuine question though, is there any real logic you can piece together to explain how you believe that's a real logical argument? i'd be extremely relieved if you simply admitted that you're a shit stirrer rather than this being a real thought representative of your mind, but short of that, some sort of explanation would be appreciated.
What's the better way to go. Manga or light novel.
Candle Woods will be explained in Candle Woods
No no, Candle Woods was so good they made Candle Woods 2, where they explain everything.
>>286660113Talent beats hard work. Even Naruto agrees.
>>286662290Both at the same time. One for Carl, the other for even more Carl.
>>286662290The manga is a really solid adaptation, but reading it first will make you miss seeing all of Yuuki's adorable expressions when you'll eventually want to switch to the LN. You get a lot more background information about the world and Yuuki's thought process there, too. Right now the manga has started Cloudy Beach, so you could re-read the manga adaptation of a game you really like.
Still waiting for someone to post the .webm
>>286660932>fans of the source material No one knew or cared about this before the anime.
>>286662375Carl worked hard when she was with Hakushi though. Moegi lost mostly because she was tilted from everything going wrong.
>>286662493
>>286662290the best way to go is between Carl's tights
>>286662517That's still not the .webm, but I'll allow this one.

>>286661572Game 9 vs Game fucking 28 bro.
>>286661680That’s a lot of words I won’t read lol
another kino episode of KINOyugi, hats off to the director
>>286662571Loli vs Hag
I could have saved her...
>>286662820How?
THE HUNTERAND THE HUNTED
her boobs are HUGE
>>286662843By breeding her.
>>286662865What do you think was going through Hakushi's mind there?
>>286662820Nah. Nobody rebounds from parricide and terminal lesbian worship. Carl granted her mercy.
>>286662892>Nah, I'd win
what an episode, fucking kino... my penis is crying
>>286662892>what a bad day
>>286662885How many broken girls those tits attracted? We might never know.
>>286662865Hakushi got fucking owned. Wasn't she supposed to be really good at these kind of things? How the fuck did someone like Kyara managed to win against her?
>>286662885she stores the evil in them
>>286662956>someone like KyaraI think you underestimate how insanely good she was at killing people.
>>286654278>>286655199I thought she was on the bunny team?
>>286662985Well, we literally haven’t seen her killing yet lol. Just the aftermaths and a trail of corpses.
>>286663002She likes crossdressing (to be more precise, she doesn't like bunny costumes).
>>286663002Kyara is only on team Kyara
>>286662985But Hakushi had over 90+ won games. Surely she had to have came across insane bitches like Kyara before.With all that experience, there was no way she should have lost to Kyara here.
>>286662985I guess, she killed girls by her huge boobies. Carl has no chance here.
>>286655442isn't Hakushi's body supposed to look fucked up?no as in the mutilation, but her internals. >the rib bones were so thin that they looked like carrots that had been painstakingly cultivated in an apocalyptic wasteland, and the organs had turned dark, like tanned boys on a soccer team. Additionally, the organs strewn across the ground seemed rather low, considering that everything had been pulled out. If Yuki recalled correctly, the mannequin in her old science classroom had more organs than this
Kyara is like Aura from Frierenevery girl with smaller boobs loses to her
>>286662968>These bad boys can store so much evil like you wouldn't believe>*slaps Kyara's tits*>*immediately get my throat ripped out*
>>286663048She can have all the experience she wants, but her body was already at its limit and no longer responding in the way she's used to. She could hide it when fighting scrubs with a handful of wins under their belt or when training with Yuuki, but insane psycho bitches like Kyara push players to their absolute extremes.
>>286663178>but her body was already at its limit and no longer responding in the way she's used toHow come? What happened?
>>286663257it will be explained in Candle Woods
>>286661572>spends an entire episode coping in bed>fumbles game 29>fumbles game 30 so badly mishiro goes apeshit on her>totally felt nothing after killing kinko
>>286660424>>286663257I think this maybe implies her body was all sorts of fucked up even before getting taken apart
>buy all the available LNs because I like Carl's show>have fun reading the first 5 volumes>no idea when volume 6 will be released>autistic rule prevents me from simply reading onlinewhy don't they have a schedule available? Yenpress obviously already have the rights, the novels are already out in jp, surely there's a rough estimate of time to translate and print the next book?
>>286660151So when was this? When did this take place? Why were they living in tents?
>>286663499In tents any sex is better.
>>286663329>Carl spends days coping in bed>Is a massive fuck up when she gets up and does stuff>Everyone gets mad at Carl>Carl crashes out and proceeds to cope even harderWhy does this author know what I do every week?
>>286663257Hakushi was the kind of player who applied body modifications in order to eliminate perceived weaknesses. She went for maximum chance of survival, not fighting abilities. Basically as she explained to Yuuki this episode, any fight you can run away from is one you won't lose, but Kyara was insane enough to not give her a choice.
Director-sama is regrettably losing me on the way. I liked the previous arcs but this one is disastrous. Complete lack of action, amount of backstory and retrospection completely disproportionate to the amount of screentime for characters. For whatever reason all the problems people had with this anime so far are put on display during this specific arc. Ah well, while the anime might be not without its flaws, they gave us these threads so it's not all that bad
>>286663580This seems like a stupid tactic. How on earth did she even manage to survive 90+ games like this.
do japanese people really live like this
>>286663673Welcome to light novels. Authors think they can write but they lack basic understanding of literature and throw in anything without thinking for two seconds how stupid it appears to anyone with a functioning brain.
>>286663399It looks like they do a release every 3-6 months. That's way too long, imo.Alternatively, you can get all the japanese novels from amazon jp if you want to do your best with the moonrunes. They're sold out in a lot of other places. Carl is a better exscuse than most to make understanding japanese happen regardless.
>>286663684Go onto youtube and look at the appartment walkthrough videos and it's even worse. They're cluttered like you wouldn't believe.
Hmm
>>286656984This scene was so fucking dumb. She kicks Moegi towards her gun and then proceeds to walk away casually. How is that prioritizing survival?
>>286663257Post-game healing isn't as all-powerful as it looks. They can make you look externally like new, but organ, bone, and nerve damage does gradually accumulate. Some damage that can't be directly healed can be addressed through prosthetics, but they aren't magic and still rely on working nerves. Hakushi's body started having noticeable problems around game 70, which seems to be average.>>286663580This doesn't really line up with volume 7, although you can safely assume that it was a bit of a slippery slope once it started.
>>286663933Itʼs about aurafarming.
>>286664084This shit has no aura. There's no aura when it's all ass
>>286663933>How is that prioritizing survival?She survived
>>286659658literally this
>>286664114BY LUCK. Don't turn your back against a bitch with a gun
>>286664098Thatʼs why you donʼt have any aura.
>>286664049Someone mentioned that this was part of the reason as to why Kyara went full autopsy-mode on her body, was it true, or did Kyara just disemboweled her for laughs?
>>286664131>LUCKSkill, she dodged
>>286664118At least Ueno is showing that 90% of /a/ are knuckle dragging retards who prefer shit like Jujutsu Kaisen
>>286664207Allowing generic shonen on /a/ has been a disaster for the community.
People with 0 media literacy shouldn't be allowed to criticize things.
>>286660458Holy moly that's an image.
>hmm i think i will slowly walk away from the girl with a gun who i just knocked downlow animation budget isn't a good excuse for animating something retarded
>>286663048She was not in top form. They have already been dropping hints that that was the case if you were paying attention.
>>286664297Filtered
>>286664138I didn't read it that way. Kyara said a lot about how her body was weird, but didn't seem to think much of it beyond "no wonder she couldn't put up a fight". I think she just figured that the one everyone seemed to look up to was the perfect target for playing with.
>>286663762I guess if they released them rapid-fire they would quickly catch up to the original ln releaseI have recently started learning moonrunes, but I'm nowhere near good enough to read in themmostly I'm just autistic about my collection. I make a choice to read the physical release, and I stick to it. Sometimes that leads to wasted money when I'm unable to avoid learning that what I started purchasing ends like shit or gets axed. MHA and Black Torch spring to mind. Still need to get rid of those volumes.
>>286660458>>286664272Now without watermark, thanks @grok.
>>286664297Carl was pretty retarded there, but it worked out in the end. She's not a perfect death gamer after all.
Was there a reason why Kyara didn't target Carl? It kind of seems like things just went conveniently well so that Carl would end up as the sole bnuuy girl left alive, no?
>>286662820The only winning move was not to play
>>286664207I don't know how to tell you bro, but this shit is just as ass as jjk, but without the budget
holy shit this is so fuckiung garbage
>>286664444Trips Quads of truth
>>286664350NTA, and I'm not a big LN reader, but out of the ones I've looked into it seems very common for licensors to intentionally stay behind. I remember seeing gaps from 6 months to 24 months and everywhere in between, but very consistent within a single series. When it's first licensed they'll play catch-up to reach that point, making it clear they could go faster if they wanted to, and then the pace drops to keep that delay steady.Not sure what the reasoning is, but it sure fucking sucks for the readers.
>>286664395>Was there a reason why Kyara didn't target Yuuki?She's supernaturally lucky. This is literally the reason.
>>286664520One of the publishers has said once that the nip licensors can be autistic and dumb and if a series is ongoing demand you only release as many volumes as they release domestically. So if the JP side only gets one novel you're sure as hell not catching up. But it's a series by series basis and that was one of the more extreme examples.
>>286664395She left the dessert for the last.
>introduce best girl>then kill her off same gamewhat did japan mean by this?
>>286664395She was leaving it to Moegi, but unfortunately Moegi is a fucking scrub
I can't belive 40 bunnies couldn't handle one big titty maniacHow did carl even get separate from her master after she announced the manic is there?
>>286664395Carl was one of the more calm bunnies that remembered the direction of the door and briskly walked towards it in the middle of the smoke while Kyara was presumably doing pirouettes while holding two knives. She was most likely not the only bunny to get out, but who knows which of the corpses in the maze were before or after.
>>286664444Swap out Carl for some generic, edgy MC and you'd be correct.
>>286664591Moegi > Hakushi.
>>286664605>>286657949>>286657984>>286658018>>286658044
>>286660820What the fuck, /a/. You told me she didn't get to suffer and died a quick death.This shit doesn't look like a quick death to me!
>>286664618>Swap out some generic, edgy MC for some generic, edgy MC and you'd be correct.???
>>286664630Sumiyaka>*
>>286664520Japs being autistic is SOP, I guessand me being autistic puts me in an awkward place as well, since I want to talk about vol 5, but it's impossible to do without someone chiming in with the most recent plot developments from jpah well. At least Carl is cute
>>286664660The LN said 10% of the corpses were like Hakushi's, and Sumiyaka was one of the 90%. Blame Ueno.
Moegi died without even killing a single bunny.She died without achieving anything!
>>286664660I'm sorry anon, you got director-sama'd.>As she neared her destination, the number of corpses littering the path grew. There appeared to be about twice as many bodies as there had been earlier. Heaps of them were strewn across the floor. Thanks to the Preservation Treatment, Yuki was spared the sight of them covered in red. Around one in every ten corpses had been heavily mutilated, and she immediately understood that was the special handiwork of the homicidal maniac. >Lying among the corpses was someone she knew—Sumiyaka. >Her body was part of the nine in every ten—a normal corpse. Countless stab wounds littered her chest, ones that had been inflicted with the same intensity as drilling holes in a machine to make it lighter. One of them had been the killing blow. Her vocal cords, which had grown hoarse from alcohol and smoking, vibrated no more, and her hands, which had assaulted Yuki’s underarms some time ago, showed no signs of life. >Upon touching her body, Yuki felt no hint of warmth. Sumiyaka’s soul had traveled so far away that it could no longer be recovered. She had been killed by the psychopath. The woman with agarwood-colored hair, who, according to Sumiyaka, had been among the group of beginners. The woman who had vanished without Yuki noticing.
>>286664714Moegi killed like 10 stumps, she did 1/3 of the work for the bunnies. It's hilarious how much of a shitter she was.
>>286662985I know Kyara killed a lot but there's no way she killed all of those people all by herself, right? Were any of the other deaths caused by the stumps?
>>286664755Thatʼs why I love Moegi.
>>286660347>>286660383>>286660415This board rejects your hypothesis.
>>286664724>Her vocal cords, which had grown hoarse from alcohol and smokingSumiyaka was an alcoholic and a smoker?
>>286664683I'm still pissed over the exclusive short story that are exclusive to some shop that seem relevant like the one where Kinko's father die. Stupid autistic Japanese and their store bonuses.
>>286664703I don't remember that. Anyways what Kyara does is post death mutilation, not torture.
Moegi F *spits on her body*
>>286664724Why did director-sama changed this? Was it to cause more impact when Carl saw her?
>>286664758Yes, but probably not in the bunny spawn point, more likely in the maze.
>>286664758Yeah, but you can count those on two hands.
>>286664841Probably because he had no intention of showing Hakushi being ritually dissected despite showing organs before.
>>286662885How is she so skilled at killing when her tits are that big? They would hinder her movements.
>>286664828>Anyways what Kyara does is post death mutilation,I don't think it's implied either way if she tries to ensure they're dead, or not dead, before she starts opening her christmas presents. You could assume either way. But it's not torture in the sense that she's not going to stop when they're no longer suffering, sure.
>>286664813that is bullshit. But then that's getting into the same shit I've been seeing all week because of that EVA exclusive short. Japs are seething because they fully believe that anybody not at that event has no right to see the material, and that's spilled over into them flat out stating that if there's no way to purchase animanga then you simply shouldn't be able to view it. I do have a bunch of respect for Japan and it's ethics, but I can't wrap my head around that one
Have you ever worn clothes so tight you just needed to kill near 300 people?
The episodes are getting worse. Guess they really frontloaded the budget and are just desperately trying to stretch out the remainder.Last episode might be justifiable, though I don't know that it needed to be an entire episode. But two things happening in the very next episode, and one of them being retarded, is pretty bad. Atmosphere doesn't matter if nothing happens in it.Next episode is going to be EVA broadcast ending but with 5 drawings of the fight randomly inserted.
>>286664951If you had tits that big you'd hate tight clothes as well
>>286664982One of the things I'm grateful to the anime for is letting me see those delicious milkers in the bunny suit.
>>286651783>suddenly shounen OP as fuck villain shows up and they cannot do so much as scratch her in dozens and dozens of peoplecherry on top would be if Yuuki somehow manages to beat her kekI liked how this show was somewhat grounded in how the characters were ordinary humans at the end of the day, had no superpowers nor insane feats, then this bitch shows up and murders everyonethe only thing closer to this bullshit is how multiple people survived 90+ games given how unfair some of them are really weird choice here, the murder psycho bitch isn't what I was expecting for Candle Woods, I hoped for way more
>>286664959Next episode is the last one, right?
>>286655032>waaaaah i killed the student of the psycho bitch im so sad even though im accustomed to killing peoplewhy
>>286664946The consumer culture in Japan seems extremely fucked. When they aren't even willing to rebel against limited time pachinko videos, there's no saving them.
Why was Kyara such a bad teacher?
>>286665020LNfags oversold candle woods.
>>286665084she's not really sad about the loss of life. she's extremely depressed and directionless and ready to die at any moment, and seeing the biggest jobber in the world so unbelievably fucking desperate to accomplish something that for yuuki was completely effortless is making her feel uncomfortable.
>>286665224Show me how you reached this conclusion quoting from the anime alone.
>>286665249jesus christ you are so fucking stupidgo be autistic elsewhere
>>286665249Didn't watch the show confirmed once again
>>286664959>>286665068damn u right, i thought we had 12 eps and not just 11. so the fun ends next week...
>>286665340>so the fun ends next week...
>>286665340Carl will go to the big death game in the sky.
>>286665340>>286665356I'm going to miss these threads...
>>286664813>>286664946I wouldn't be so upset if I couldn't just buy them myself online. I'd go in person, but I don't live in Japan...Anyways, what you're looking for might be here, maybe.https://kakuyomu.jp/works/16817330648785318913
>>286665356>>286665385>>286665395bros...our tutorial has concluded too
>>286665249i didn't reach this conclusion from the anime alone, and i can't guess exactly what i would have gotten out of the episode blind, so i'll let you argue about the quality of the adaptation with anime-onlies.
>>286665447That looks interesting either way, I'll give those a read, thanks.
We peaked at ep7.
>>286665340AHHHGH I don't want these threads to die.I don't want these threads to die!I refuse to let these threads die!AHHHHGH
>>286658922It's nice that she wasn't brutalized in the manga but Carl touching her stuffing was more touching.
>>286665678I'm sorry Eren.
Whew, almost missing the thread.
>>286665678Now you know how Moegi felt.
>>286665709>>286665721Holy shit you don't watch the show at all.
So who had it worst, Kinko, Moegi, or Sumiyaka?
>>286665678Is this the performance of a 10-episode veteran?
>>286665780Only one of those was groomed by a psychopathic pedophile
>>286665678kino
>>2866562103 guns, 2 knives, 3 pinecones = 8 weapons taken from 8 stumps.3 killed in the tutorial.Moegi killed 11/30 stumps.
>>286665670true, we lost many veterans in Candle Woods
>>286665912>from 8 stumps.She could have killed a stump that already killed or looted another stump, but LN Moegi is a stump killing machine so it's probably close to 8.
>>286665912Moegi did everything wrong.
>How do I have legs if I'm not a ghostnaruhodo
>>286666046Yuuki Carl is a regular Jaden Smith
>>286665928The anticipation for Candle Woods was actually more powerful than Candle Woods...
>>286666022Thatʼs why sheʼs based.
>>286666022Moegi chose the optimal strategy but sucked shit at performing. I bet Yuuki would have done the exact same thing, and she wouldn't even have to be copying what happened to her, it'd just come instinctually.
Holy shit this anime is boring af
>>286665831But Kyara was a pedo?
>>286666112I wish Klara pedos me.
>>286666112anon wasn't describing a character, he was confessing to a crime
>>286666141You shouldn't sex that kind of crazy, anon...
>>286666063Yuuki Carl.... Jaden Smith.... Jaden Yuuki.We're chilling out with the crew in the schoolyard
>>286666073we had faith in director-san but he slaughtered our hopes like kyara did the bunnies
>>286666217kino...
>>286666181I shouldnʼt, but still would.
>>286665678S2 announcement next week though
>>286665131Because Moegi was a sex toy, not a student.
>>286666182>Challenge Carl to a duel>High Roll?>She rolls a 6>That's Pretty High>Shuffle, Cut, Draw>Carl: Special summon Sheiren>Fuck>She mills the nuts>I look at my hand>Hero Cards>Carl looks me in the eyes>Stone Cold>"gg no re"
>>286665340The first episode was double length so we still got 12 episodes worth of anime.
>>286666217Director-sama made Moegi a lot more miserable and pathetic than she was in both the LN and Manga, and considering how good that was for her character, I'd say he did a great job.
>>286666307still 2 years without threads
>>286666379Nice.
>>286665780Sumiyaka because the last thing she saw before dying wasn't Carl.
>>286666379What decks would other players use?
>>286666394in a way but it still ends a week early
>>286666418if we all pooled our NEETbux could we have a budget for Cloudy Beach?
>>286666418They could animate another season of this in a week.
So what picture is going to end up in the 2026 collage?
>>286666360is there somewhere I can order my own Moegi? They seem fun
>>286666505I'll pledge $20 to Essay scowling at me like the filth I am.
>>286666541you need to ask?
>>286666541We will take it over and make it all Carl.
>>286666542I have a great business opportunity for you. Just do this fun game show full of cute cosplay girls and you can find one to take home yourself! You even get paid just for showing up! What a great deal! Just sign here on the dotted line. Limited time offer.
>>286666596We could fund OVAs. Cooking with Carl sleeping with Carl, working out with Carl
>>286666559Surely there will be something that happens next episode that tops this. Surely.
>>286666344Moegi
>introduce a bunch of 10/10 girls>kill them all
>>286666647So in other words the Tamamo Diaries
Reminder that Moegi's pubes are green.
>>286666559Kek
>>286666649>last episode includes a ten-minute shot of Carl standing on the bridge (abstracted, of course)
Something about this fight made me think of Samurai Jack and those types of action cartoons.
>>286666647>sleeping with CarlDirector-san already covered this.
>>286665224>is making her feel uncomfortableyes that's the part that it's bullshit. "Oh no i denied her dream because i have talent im so uncomfortable" what was that really. The author is really trying to make it sound deep but it's just nonsense
>>286666678I hate you
>>286666701Need at least 40 min of her sleeping.
>>286666678YOU SHUT THE FUCK UP RIGHT NOW!I just read vol 5 yesterday. I'm still sad
>>286666541>>286666559I think this (but shorten to "My name is Carl" for space reasons) is better since it represents the threads better.
>>286666774I also think this one will make it.
>>286666732Hey, me too!
>>286666627>Just sign here on the dotted line.Is this what the ---- thing is about?
>>286666688Plucking them out one by one
>>286666732Congrats. I bought the ebook and read it because my physical copy was delayed and had to check I wasn't bamboozled because I didnt want to accept it. I wasn't.
>>286666806STOP THE MOEGI SUFFERING!
>>286666798 That final fight hurt, man. As cool as Carl was doing her echolocation thing, I wish we got some more of her being a lesbian mentor to Tamamo
>>286666627ha, jokes on you, Carl is (like a lot of anons) literally me, so that's not a problem.other than being a cute cosplay girl of course
I'm really going to miss Mo'eggy
>>286666902Aren't most anons actually more like Moegi though?
>>286666915No mo'eggy....
btw i fucked ALL of the Candle Woods girls, bunnies and stumps, and as a matter of fact i fucked every girl that ever participated in the games and ever will. Who am I?a fat balding Ojiisan
bye bye thread
>>286666838Those were by far the most enjoyable parts about the book. Their mentor-student relationship could have easily stretched more than one volume and I would have lapped it all up, but I guess it might have changed the tone too much and would have only made it harder to accept the end.
The thread has ended, please post outside of here yourselves.
>>286666828I WANTED TO SEE MOEGI SUFFERING EVEN MORE!I DIDN'T GET ENOUGH WITH WHAT WE SAW.
>>286666918I'm more like HakushiIntelligent, nihlistic, with a wicked sense of humor!
>>286666714i don't think it's supposed to sound deep at all. it's like a depressed person snapping out of jealousy at someone talking excitedly about their hobby. the main point of this arc is yuuki deciding that aiming for 99 games is enough of a distraction from her depression to work for now. i'd say it's intentionally mundane.
>>286666933This bye bye is way too premature. Like Moegi's handjobs.
>>286666774ty anon, I couldn't find where I saved that, was hoping someone else would post it.Its either this or the "tutorial has concluded..." one.
>>286666967You've got to admit pretending and not telling Carl about it and going on a bender with other girls regularly is a funny joke.
>>286666487Hakushi: VS/K9Kyara: Full power TenpaiMoegi: Sky StrikerMishiro: Primite Blue EyesRiko: Lunalight
who knew that we had TWO threads at the same time >>286611518migrate i suppose
Mishiro is forgotten...
>>286666918absolutely not, not even in here there are people as useless and stupid as muttegi. she's a one in 100k worthless, whiny douche. most anons aren't even like Yuuki, she's competent, they are probably like the ones that die randomly
>>286666963 I'm still interested to see (heh) how Carl continues with her right eye. It's not often a series lets it's protagonist have a permanent debuff. If they stick with it things could be kino
>>286666974jealousy? my guy you got reach
>>286667013That's the thread from a few days ago lol
>>286667013Carl is too powerful for one thread to contain her
>>286666986The fact that Ueno thought "the tutorial has concluded" is so fucking good he had to do it twice honestly makes it a very strong contender.
Putting Carl on the table, cooked.
>>286667032Hey, you mentioned this shit about the eye would get explained in Candle Woods, /a/.We've got 1 episode left and nothing has happened to her eye yet!
>>286667090What's silly is the second time replaced one line he had to go out of his way to do it instead of just saying the thing.
>anons claim to hate Carl's show>still show up every week to discuss ityou're all tsunderes. Carl sees through you
>>286667013i'd rather migrate to a real thread than an old bait thread, but i'm not making one.
>>286667053yeah i was surprised that it survived this new one
>>286667032For a very brief moment I thought Tamamo's "shameful disposition" might actually refer to her being legit gay for Yuuki. Turns out on the very next page that that it didn't refer to that. I choose to believe she just wasn't ashamed of being gay then. But yes, I definitely didn't expect her eyesight to be this bad already, nor that we'd skip all the way to game 62 in volume 5. The pace felt really quick this time.
>>286667101The only one here who gets to eat Carl is Mishiro
>>286667105The tutorial has concluded, please think of the rest yourselves.
>>286667128That thread turned into a normal Carl thread pretty much straight away.
>>286667149Fuck your tutorial shit! Explain to me what the fuck happened to her eye!
>>286667002I played Sky Striker. I'm literally Moegi.
>>286667128it's on page 9 making a real one is an optionup to you bros
>>286667090It just fits his style of direction really well.
>>286667018>>286667180anon confirmed to be Moegi.
>>286667105That was, actually, me. Trust the plan. It will be explained next episode>>286667135yeah, I thought the same. Made sense, especially since Carl comes across as a raging homosexual at times. The pace does seem insanely fast. I guess we'll keep going back to old games as the novels progress, but being over halfway to 100 and already half-blind is mad. I also kind of wanted to see some more of pudgy Tamamo[/spoiler
>>286667043jealousy isn't quite it, that's just the example that came to mind. i'd say it's more along the lines of seeing a more functional human makes her feel more broken. the fact is she's upset about something she's lacking. that's the point.
>>286667220>Trust the plan. It will be explained next episodeYou motherfucker. If it doesn't or director-sama decides to cut it, I'm going to hunt you down like Kyara did all the bunnies.In minecraft.
>>286667013You guys... You couldn't go a couple days without Carl. You love her too much.
>>286667246I love Carl's feet...
>>286667244I could just spoil you now, if you wanted, anon-kunI don't know how abstract Director-sama will be. It could look like a piece of modern art
Can't spell Moegi without moe.
Carl is literally big boss
>>286667246Carl is love, Carl is life
>>286666918>>286667018maybe I'm being uncharacteristically optimistic, but I would like to believe if they were given a purpose like Carl was (or rather, will), they would succeed.Moegi is just a complete fuck up, who would have unironically been better off vivisected by they psycho
>>286667283>I could just spoil you now, if you wanted, anon-kunPlease do.
I didn't think we could but we reached 700 posts. Love you anons. Love Carl. Love Moegi.
>>286667284Just in case, kanji «moe» is the same in Japanese.
I don't love Moegi
>>286667297Scrap Building was the best arc.
>>286667180>>286667210>Anon struggles each match not to be destroyed by the other player and time limit rules. >Kyara makes going second look easy, but it's a big cope for you. >Gets lightning storm sided in each game against them even when it's not meta.Anon is Moegi confirmed.
>>286667312In the fight with Kyara, Carl takes a shallow knife cut to her eye, which discolours her retina. It seems not to affect her vision when examined, so they leave it
I like Moegi.
>>286667313Best threads on /a/ currently.>>286667331Fuck off, Kyara.
I'm indifferent to Moegi
>>286667353Oh, so she doesn't just simply overwhelm her then. Good to know at least Kyara put up a fight.
>>286667313I love her
I like Airi and feel she is underrepresented in this thread over Moegi.
>>286667246I love Carl more than anyone else in this thread!
>>286667387with a little luck and guidance from her master she wins otherwise she'd be dead Kyara is strong.
>>286667401This is bait. No one likes Airi. That bitch can't be trusted.
>>286667401Wait until cloudy bitch and people will come around when she's sexy again.
>>286667399What a lewd pose...
>>286667401She's underrepresented in every incarnation of this story. I love how her regular expression is best described as reluctant acceptance.
>>286667421Airi is infinitely better than Keito.
>>286667433>has no toes>sexy
Officer Carl has seen your posts about her. You're under arrest, anon!
Carl's vagina...
>>286667465For what crime? Telling the truth?
>>286667462I still can't believe she comes back
>>286667409How can you love her the most, when I love her more! Checkmate!
>>286667479She read your fanfiction, Mishiro.
>>286667465>>286667479speeding violations
>>286667498Mishiro would write the smuttiest snufffics.
>>286667498Mishiro prefers to call it a "plan"
>>286667503There were no cars this episode...
I hope the last episode will have the car openning.
>>286667399nin~ nin~ nin~
>>286667503I had no choice, my car was on fire.
>>286667519Was getting caught part of the plan?
>>286667526>>286667528We're not getting any more cars. They were lit on fire when Candle Woods began.
>>286667542I still find it hard to believe that we actually got an OP where the cars where on fucking fire. It's like he browsed these threads and deliberately wanted to fuck with us.
>>286667542GAS GAS GAS!
>>286667555There will be only three cars among the wreckage of smouldering cars that were on fire for the ED
The cars on fire were actually the candles.This is a story about a deranged world.
>>286667552Yes, but they were supposed to be wearing wedding dresses and wielding swords.
>>286667574Since it only happened once I can't tell if it actually happened or was a collective daydream and I don't want to go back and check.
>>286667574he prbly does as nobody else even talks about it
>>286667514>>286667552She creamed herself while getting destroyed by Carl...So, yes. Mishiro died doing what she loved.
>>286667487No you don't! I do!I'll fight you!
