the details on their clothing preferences ALWAAYYSSS makes me so soft look at richeh drowning in her clothesssss and tetia's short dress with the lace underneath !! my girlsssss !!
>>287822705 i KNOW right??? whoever’s doing costume design for this show is actually cooking. richeh looking like she just grabbed the biggest coat in the orphanage and disappeared inside it is peak gap moe, meanwhile tetia out here with the neat little lace peeking under the hem like she still cares about looking proper even when everything’s going to hell.it says so much without anyone having to spell it out. richeh drowning in fabric = sheltered, swallowed by expectations, etc. tetia’s shorter cut + visible layers feels more deliberate, like she chose it. even the boots/shoes differences are personality coding 101.these tiny details are why i can’t call this “just” another fantasy. the girls feel lived-in. let me pat my daughters on the head ;_;
Least obvious mentally ill shill.
more schizophrenic well poisoning, my favoritenormal people are working at these hours you know
>>287822705You don't need to shill your wokeslop 24/7
GOD DAMMIT WHY CAN'T BRUSH BUDDIES BE REAL? I WANT FOUR OF THE LITTLE FLUFFY NOODLE FERRETS.
"Hey fellow Brim Hats. Remember the girl I mentioned recently? Yes! Our hope! Her existence alone will change society! But her mind isn't something we should ignore. If we teach her and slowly push her to our side she will surely grow into the greatest witch of all time!So anyway I gave her some super ink. Turning her spells into nukes. What? No, of course she doesn't know anything about it. Don't worry. It will be funny I swear! No, no, she won't kill herself with it. It's not like the next spell she learns is baking potatoes or something like that. You guys worry too much!"
>>287823318I think his plan is somewhat clever, he just pushes Coco to see the dark side of witch society (like with how vigorously the knights are willing to mindwipe EVERYONE) so she becomes disillusioned and eventually joins the brimhats.Yes he could just pick normal kids and tell them that their sick parents died because the witches have forbidden healing magic, but then he'd just have a bunch of barely effective soldiers and there's no way he would win against the full might of the witches anyway. Instead he engineered a situation where children will be taken in by the witches themselves, trained by them and exposed to the limitations of their beliefs. Then all he has to do is poke the hornet nest once in a while so the kids never become too comfortable and he'll have essentially deep cover agents inside the very heart of witch society who would want to bring it down. Don't forget that brimhats are a very loose groups and they don't all have the same objectiveTl;dr it's Tsurumi's plan all over again, send someone with a poisoned mind inside a group and watch as they destroy themselves.
>>287823318Good animation can't carry this bad writing
>>287823610Tsurumi is a master in manipulating people. The things that happened with the ainu group were controlled by him with simple information. What Coco has gone through were completely random events. If Qifrey wasn't 5 feet away from her, that book would've killed her. If she had used the ink with any fire seals the atelier would've exploded. He is pretty good in hiding his own involvement but he doesn't really give a shit about his 'hope' or what she thinks. It's less a poison arrow and more like a child strapped with explosives he hopes explodes while taking a huge number casualties with them.
>>287823938I think he just planted many seeds and simply watch over those who make it. Perhaps Coco is the one who made it the furthest so far. It does seems like sometimes he gets pretty religious about her so he might thinks it's fate at work.
>>287822705I love it when they look comfy.
>>287824501
>>287823318Iguin trains his little birdies by throwing them out the nest and shrugging off any that splatter on the ground.
>>287823938>>287824263Iguin reminds me of this character from Kengan Omega people call Tiger Niko. The manga is retarded, but his whole gimmick is trying to find the perfect fighting style and his way of doing this is training up dozens of students (many of which are stronger than he ever was) and then laughing off all of their humiliating deaths as dead ends. Iguin's complete lack of responsibility and just throwing Coco into situations where she could easily kill herself totally accidentally as a way of just testing her mettle has that exact level of carelessness.
>>287823938Actually nevermind. I looked at the chapter again. It doesn't have to be random. What if Iguin set up the entire river incident? The knights wouldn't have simply head out to look at a flood unless they think a witch did it. He made a incident close to the atelier so that the victims would run there for help. With the coin in Cocos ink bottle he could set the timing, when she gets the super ink, perfectly. So long as he watches from afar. If he did watch it would also explain how he knew Qifrey got the bottle afterwards and set a trap afterwards.
Daughter!
>>287825388Yeah, he 100% set up the atelier with the river stuff. I don't think Iguin as much of a gambler as he appears. At least not once Coco finally learned what it means to be a witch. Past that point he's been monitoring her closely, I guarantee it.
>>287825362fluffy
>>287822705So ti seems nobody liked the episode, what went wrong?
>>287827291I liked it
>>287827291Seethe more retard
Shoujo Coco
>>287827878Is that printed or handdrawn?
>>287827878AdorableThink about how toxic her relationship with Tartah and Custas would have been in a full on Shojo series.
>>287828340Agott won me over with all her development during the festival, but before that I was enjoying the Coco/Tartah/Custas trio dynamic a lot. I'm sure it will still be very strong and messed up from now on due to everything that happened but yeah, I can only imagine how crazy it would be if it was a love triangle on top of that.
>>287827291It's a pretty crappy series in general. What did you expect?
>>287828659I feel like the next time we see Custas he will be much calmer. Sad and depressed because of his father, but not anymore an angry retard
So uh, what's going to happen to Easthies now? If he wakes up he's still going to go on a righteous crusade because his principles are completely uncompromising so they either wipe or disable their most competent knight and objectively weaken the entire system by punishing someone who was the legit upholding the pact, or they let him purge again. I feel like the way the story's going he's going to end up the new sage of laws or whatever the title is. My man's going to make himself dictator for the good of society like Cromwell.
>>287829118He's going to have to break out of jail first.
IMAGINE
>>287829118Pretty sure he's going to be straitjacketed up or something. The weird thing is who has the right to imprison him, given that the Knights Moralis don't seem to actually have oversight beyond the old granny that used to lead them. I could see the other Knights bitching about their boss being locked up because they're extremely self-centered as a whole.>>287829055Yeah, that kid is going to be broken as fuck.
>>287829303At least Luluci saw everything that happened so she'll most likely vouch for him getting a time out.
>>287829324Yeah. Our girl is going to probably quit the Knights Moralis within a couple arcs at this rate. Or at least start trying to lead a reform movement inside it.
>>287829613
Reminder that Nips hate Coco
>>287829729It is a genuine flaw how quickly it seems that Coco moved on from her mother's petrification. While the story does loop around to her feels over it, she's otherwise very enthusiastic and happy most of her downtime. She's operating under the assumption that it is something that can be solved quickly. Part of it is the slow pace. The manga is extremely decompressed and doesn't rush anywhere. Coco doesn't really come to terms with the gravitas of her mother's condition until what would be like season 3 or 4 of the anime adaptation. But in a timeline sense that is only a few months, perhaps, since the incident.
>>287829303As far as we know granny is still their captain. And it's not like she got totally mindwiped. Only a day worth of memories at best.(have we ever seen the usage of the middle rune? sounds like foreshadowing)
>how will they thwart the dragon that’s trying to kill them in the grim labyrinth that they’ll starve to death in soon>use pillow magic to give the dragon a cozy beddie bye to nap in :3Kill yourself. Dropped.
People are too androgynous in the manga. It's seriously hard to tell men and women apart in it when they're wearing all their robes and hats and most of them have long hair.
>>287830092why do you care though
>>287829729So the consensus is animation good, characters bad.
>>287830135Just WHAT does Coco see in this boy???
>>287830068Well it didn't work. Qifrey had to squirt on it. But there was never a chance that 4 tiny girl would kill a dragon. Distracting it was a good idea.
>>287830092True. The design are my least favorite aspect by far, aside from all the guy stuff.
>>287830135I like to assign voices in my head when reading manga and it's hard to do that if I can't easily tell their gender. I usually just imagine faggy voices for like the cripple sage or the brown knight's boyfriend.
>>287830153She goes on a three-page rant about it at one point.
>>287830192>I usually just imagine faggy voices for like the cripple sageI feel like they might give him a fairly deep voice instead. To me he has that vibe of only being playful to cover up a much more stern nature.
>>287830068That was the best part of the episode.
Well, it's Friday. Odds and I start watching and blogposting this infamous corporate slop once I get home.
>>287830334It wasn't meant to be. I'll try again next week.
>>287829729Weird, after having marathoned all the chapters Coco is my favorite character by far. The thing with her mother permeates all of her actions and interactions with witches and magic through the series. I guess it doesn't seem to be as big of a topic super early on and east asians can't forgive anyone who breaks the confucian parental worship.
Does this series need a 24/7 general
>>287830192>>287830263Yeah, I agree with Anon, that I've always pictured Beldaruit as having a pretty deep masculine voice. He might be chronically ill, but he's not personally weak or effeminate.
>>287830263I always imagined him being voiced by a hyperactive Shinichirō Mikihttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzbtvCdyGqI
>>287830388Some schizos like to shill it all day
>>287830388sorry a schizo likes to poison the threads by shitting all over the board like an Indian
>>287827502You need to start seeing past the flashy lights >>287823751
>>287830567Don't care. I like it. I'm gonna your posts again.
>>287830567>episode 4Seems like "child protagonist does something childish and stupid and viewers get mad" syndrome has struck again. People likely 'flabbergasted' that Coco would chase the Brimhat without sending a notarized letter to Qifrey about it beforehand.
>>287830659Or maybe they got mad about Agott being mean. Coco deserved that, at least.
>>287830487>t. the schizo in question
>>287830202so precious
>>287830388maybe not, but the spammer doesn't appear to be going away, and I like posting cute art of my daughter
>>287830179>>287830202>>287830914Rereading the manga and seeing all stages of tsundere Agott in a short period of time was hilarious
>no boost in manga salesOhnonono
>>287830068>Dragon is more mobile, durable and powerful than me >Dragon is equally as cold and tired as me Fighting it is caveman behavior.
Wow this is ridiculously low for such an insane adaptation
>sasugottothat was cuter than it had any right to be
>>287831130KekTime to assume wha is actually a cartoon made for the west, not an anime
>>287831130>Precure in first placeCoco needs a magical transformation sequence
>>287830948Perhaps you should try having a child in real life instead of living vicariously through anime intended for prepubescent girls...But of course you can't.
>>287831284Name me your top 5 favorite fantasy anime/manga.
>>287831130Because it's made for americans, it shares little to no Japanese values
>>287831130It's because Qifrey isn't molesting them by the 3rd episode, they couldn't empathise.
>>287831427>t shares little to no Japanese valuesAutismal dedication to hard work, and the exactness of beauty, arts, crafts, and creating useful things for society? Not Japanese values?
>>287831581>beauty>while having a black girlboss and no attractive female characters
>>287831581>>287831581>creating useful things for societyyou mean>taking useful things western civilization created for society and optimizing them
>>287831078This is the actual metric that hurt.
>>287831130So no second season?
>>287831637>Seeing beauty only through the eye of your dickYou're so blind to beauty you can't even see it when a series is literally about kids trying to create it
>>287831762*Chinese civilizationbtw
>>287831829It's not aesthetically pleasing in general. You just like to watch little kids for some reason I'd rather not ask about.
>>287823197I thought everyone here was a virgin neet.
Do not fight over trivial things
>>287832256https://desuarchive.org/a/search/filename/1775639587605514.jpg/
>>287831895It's not weird to enjoy explorations of the same themes of youth that we all as humans are personally and parentally familiar with, but the existence of people like you who apparently only want to see value in things with sex appeal (>>287831637) force awkward clarifications >reducing beauty to aestheticsAgain, blind. But also, in terms of aesthetics, a purely individual and subjective judgement that is clearly strongly disagreed with by the intent of the author.
>>287822705It makes you go soft? Is that a good thing?
>>287823318Hey MissyYou have the structure and ink flow of a Master WitchWith some training you will make biggest spells in no time!World Peace is in your hands!Just read that book!
she knows what she's doing
>>287831859All East Asians. What have the Japanese invented? Like 0 to 1 invent, not an improvement of an existing thing (of which there are many examples and for which I commend them)
>>287832462That's not how it works, but the characters are not aesthetically pleasant one way or the other.
>>287832626Coco is an evil...
>>287832607It's exactly this but evil
>>287831386Define fantasy
>>287832748Seductive temptress. Aggot never stood a chance.
Frankly, why does everyone in this anime seem like clean mature person? Since bandits and beasts run rampant just outside the city, wouldn’t their values be closer to those of the 3rd world?
>>287833029>i'm suppose to believe that's acceptable character design
>>287833095Mangaka is unable to write characters that don't talk like idealized twitter users.
>>287833029They've been dropping a lot of hints that Tetia is most likely to be the apprentice to take the brimpill. She's too nice for her own good.
>>287833095Why would witches care about bandits and beasts on the streets? They can just fly over them.
>>287833029Jesus christ, you guys should have tell us about this before anything else.
Coco is hotAgott is hotRicheh is hotTetia is hotIninia is fucking sex
>>287833196Tetia doesn't need a hat. She's gonna be the right hand of the king.
>>287823318>>287823610I mean, it is working. The plan might have seemed like a long shot, but Coco is unironically punching well above her weight for a witch of so little training. Part of that is her own inventiveness, but necessity is the mother of invention. Without being pressured by extreme forces, she would have just learned the same old magic as the rest of the students. Instead she is learning to creatively solve problems on the fly and try things that stretch the limits of the magic she knows/is allowed to practice. As someone who is not raised with the indoctrination of pointed hat society, she questions and challenges the rules from within. Not because she is instructed to by an ideologically motivated brimhat, but by her own reasoning.
>>287832607Such a good movie. In my top 5 for sure.
>>287833599Did you know they made a sequel? Surprised the hell out of me to find out just last year.
>>287833196Tetia's issue is that she's too normal, and that is what makes her so vulnerable. Coco is an ubermenschin, Agott and Richeh are toughened by life, Tetia is just Tetia and that means that she's going to be the one to schism from the group, most likely.
>>287833622No shit? Thanks for the heads up. Didn't know that either.
Ininia is useless and only good for getting bullied
>>287833887>lobotomized a copShe is the only good brimhat
Ininia's handjob
>>287833887And her spells suck
>>287834061I'd rather not have splinters on my dick

>>287832681>What have the Japanese invented?Just in time Inventory. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just_in_TimeAnd of course, the Blue LED. The reason smartphone screens work at all.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shuji_Nakamura
>>287832607>You have the structure and ink flow of a Master WitchNote that in Martial Arts fantasy lore there are such things as evil and good martial arts. The Buddha's Palm can never be used for evil as the prerequisites to learning it need you to be good-aligned. Sometimes a good person can learn evil skills, but it is usually by accident when someone else transplanted the skills into the hero.The issue with WitchHat is that their magic has no moat. There is nothing stopping any normal Witch to start doing necromancy, radioactive nukes or poison rivers, using the tools they already have. if nuclear weapons can be made using what you can find in your average kitchen cabinet, nuclear proliferation is basically impossible to stop.
>>287833095>Frankly, why does everyone in this anime seem like clean mature person? Since bandits and beasts run rampant just outside the city, wouldn’t their values be closer to those of the 3rd world?This is a post-apocalypse world. Human tech was knocked down intentionally by the winners of the Witch War and the loser's descendent become bandits. The descendants of winners stay civilised and under extremely strict observation using magic to prevent rebellion. If the story last long enough and the cities grow bigger, the bandits would eventually be wiped out as the borders expand. But for now the civilised population is not large enough to need to fight for outside territory with the lawless underclass.
>>287833095Last arc literally explored poor people, people living in sewers and bandits. Also the Brimhats are setting their plans in motion, and that means more grimderp. So far we had just seen the people who deal with Magic who are kind of an upperclass in this world. Not to mention guys like Olruggio or Qifrey can vaporize bandits with few issues. Fuck, even Agott can.
