I don't get the resolution for this supposed "issue". Why can't three of them continue to hang out together like before? Why the blonde girl jokingly decided to distance herself from both the guy and her friend?

I'm kinda surprised this has been as active as it has, this is a pretty down to earth minor-drama story featuring all realistic scenarios with a kind of romance fakeout first few chapters/episodes.

It's not exactly super engaging

Funny that you say this, the same people who were so loud about this being the worst romcom of the year also said how good Replica is. Yet Replica thread is completely dead, while this one is getting a healthy amount of posts.
Mind you, I don't mean to say that the activity is any sort of quality meter, but it's funny how the "worst" romcom generates a lot more discussion than the "best" one.
>>
>>287910636
I think the fact that there is no gimmick to this show is what makes it interesting. Instead of spinning up hypotheticals about alien robotcum we're left to talk about real human moments between friends, crushes and how teenagers should act and respond to real life challenges that do happen.

Bad shows always get more activity, thats why there are multiple battleshounen generals at any given time in the catalog.
Replica is the far superior romance, and they even had a very thematically similar episode about friendship and insecurity ending in a love confession, but Replica is definitely made for a very specific audience. It is not going to appeal to most people.

Yes, you are.

She is insecure that Maki will want to exclude her like her old friends did after they met Yuu and started getting along. The last 2 episodes spell that out for you exactly. DId you not even watch?

>>287910915
because she's not participating and just watching them, it's awkward.

Using the different hair and eye color reason in an anime where not thirty seconds before there were three different natural hair and eye colors on screen is always kinda funny.
Cute loli quartet.
It's amazing just how being attractive can get you so far with so little effort.
So she just wasted three tickets?
Her whole reasoning is a pretty dumb issue. Why are women's lives story only mode?
Surprised he didn't sit on the chair backwards.
Holding hands is going to send blondie quite the message.
These camera angles on the roof are like him in the cuck chair.
She didn't tell them they had to interlock fingers, they did that on their own.
He's a bit of a pussy.
Why bother with bitter dirt water if you're just going to load it up with sugar and milk? Just have a soda or something.
Who opens a bag of chips as a pile? Just roll down the outside of the bag to act as a bowl if you really want to get fancy with a bag.
Blondie sure likes to be a wingwoman.
Just a pile of stale chips.
Cute confession. Funny it came from her first.

Compared to Otagal, this anime depicts more realistic relationships. Likewise, while Otagal's MC is an otaku caricature, Maki is your average self-insert protagonist. You can envision yourself in his place if you were just a little luckier in life.

Otagal is the same, trying to say one of them is better than the other for the 'relationship' is fucking DEMENTED.

What woman moment?
>>
>>287922178
I meant more realistic compared to OtaGal. Neither are 1:1 with real life, but which of these two scenarios is more likely to happen IRL?
1. You're an average guy but awkward guy. You meet a girl who likes games and movies but struggles with insecurity. You eventually become closer romantically as you spend a long time bonding over mutual interests. Her outgoing friend catches wind of your friendship and wants to get to know you. However, gamer girl is a woman and, naturally, is jealous of her more popular friend.
2. You are a complete freak with zero social skilks. You just so happen to meet a gorgeous girl who just so happens to be a diehard fan of your favorite shifty anime. She also just so happens to have a gorgeous friend who just so happens to be willing to play along with your autism. The latter girl also quickly becomes infatuated with you despite you not having much in common. Neither girl has any particularly objectionable personality traits.

I'm not following the converstaion but this one is pretty realistic, getting the attention of a chick at school that is interested in stuff you have/can provide happens all the time, and the rule #1 to score with a girl is to just talk to her, the scenario is realistic and the development is too, also MC behaves really well at difference of the guy from Otagal who simply sperg around and gets rewarded for it, which is the main difference here, I prefer this MC much more because of that.
>>
>>287922449
Iinb4 "The exception proves the rule." I met exactly one female otaku in HS, and she was really cute. We also became good friends, and I haven't gotten over my crush on her a decade later.
I don't know why you keep bringing up her woman moment like it disproves my point. Women start drama over petty shit.
>>287922485
You cannot honestly look at Maki and Otaku-kun and tell me one is not significantly more realistic and easier to self-insert as.
>>
>>287922485
I wouldn't call this realistic but it is certainly a believable enough relationship development. What is unrealistic and highly unlikely is how the girl was the one who started the first contact with him, girls when they are interested in a guy almost never (of course there are exceptions) are the ones to strike up the conversation, they'll do pointless bullshit like sending signs or indirect flirting or whatever.
>>287922583
>Women start drama over petty shit.
This, women are neurotic beings, they WILL throw a tantrum at the most pointless things they somehow believe is "relevant" and even resent it for years if not immediately settled.

>>
>>287922069
I disagree, the characters in Otagal feel like genuinely nice people who are genuinely friends who genuinely enjoy each others' company, which makes the budding romance more believable, despite the wish fulfilment premise. With this show there's nothing believable about Umi having all the same dogshit hobbies as Loser-kun and then aggressively pursuing him out of nowhere. None of the "ooh I just have so much fun with him and couldn't bear to be apart from him" in this episode feels earned or justified. The only reason why anyone is calling this show realistic is because of Umi's woman moment drama.

I mean Himari does have a point. Yu doesn't love Rion and he got socially engineered into dating her, he's pressured to never break up with her.

lmao!
maybe better than otagal but id wager theyre more on the same level

>Otagal is the more realistic show
what is it with Banme attracting the most deranged schizoposts
>>
>>287926323
they're the same kind of trashy plottage, but at least in otagal the girls are hot and he gets both of them instead of this retarded 'I WAS LE ACKSHUALLY LE OPRESSED BY LE #1 GIRL I WAS ONLY LE #2 PLEASE FUCK ME XDD' garbage plottage fagginess unnecessary rarted drama we got.
Like you have to be mentually deficient to take this kind of plottage seriously

>>287922424
I find befriending your deskmate over small talk more realistic than getting stalked by 2nd prettiest girl because of your unique hobby of streaming bad movies and playing videogames.

I envy you if this is what you consider deranged schizoposting
>>
>>287926416
Alright sure, this is nothing compared to the schizposting I've experienced in /xivg/.

Blatant falsehood posting to bump the thread?
>>
>>287926323
Genuinely and unironically, an Umi induced melty. You can tell by the way it all shows up at once.
>>
>>287926566
What did Umi ever do? Yeah, she's a shitty friend and manipulated Maki because she wanted one thing Yuu wouldn't steal but she's only 15. I've seen worse. In the end everything worked out.
>>
>>287926684
FeMCs are not allowed to be anything but perfect angels who are fully devoted, body soul and mind to the MC the millisecond she becomes aware of him.
>>
>>287926684
>because she wanted one thing Yuu wouldn't steal
That doesn't even sound like a bad thing
And tbf Yuu isn't without fault either
>>
>>287926700
>perfect angels who are fully devoted, body soul and mind to the MC the millisecond she becomes aware of him.
You just described Yuu...
>>
>>287926716
I'm glad the anime toned down Yuu's boner for Maki. I think it was a good change, Umi already has a good reason to be resentful and insecure, adding NTR potential would be too much.
>>
>>287926764
It's a bit too toned down in the manga/anime and it makes Umi's insecurity over Maki overblown. Even with the middle school backstory her reaction is too over the top. Showing Yuu have an interest in Maki would make her worries much more reasonable, but then that would be a whole different issue and require some re-writing of their progress I guess.

A realistic love story would suck ass though, and I can see that by going outside.

Second nicest girl in the class.

the drama was written so badly in this episode I had to check out the manga and yes while still not good it was a lot better in the manga.

Also why are there only 40 chapters after 4 years? The chapters aren't even long and the art is mediocre
>>
>>287923588
>revenge
Oh no!
>>
>>287923361
Umi hid her boyfriend from her. Now she’s got to show him off to everyone. It’s a fitting punishment.
>>
>>287926416
Tolerating stuff like that is how schizoposting became as bad as it is.
>>
>>287911494
why would the author write this shit in? nobody wants that, nobody asked for that and nothing good will come out of it
>>
I want to smell Umi
>>
>>287927873
WN Yuu has more justification for doing that than Anime/Manga Yuu
>>
I'll snuggle with Yuu so she doesn't feel left out.
>>
Kirio Fan Club has the best drama this season.
>>
>>287929842
it's crazy that the OP/ED spoils the reveal that the manga kept hidden for so long
>>
>>287928190
humor me with this "justification"
>>
>>287929855
episode 1 spoils it if you're not retarded

How real is this because I'm one bookmark away from reading this.
All Blue must suffer for their transgression.
>>
>>287931294
Yuu was into Maki way more overtly in the WN and she took a step back once UmiMaki became a thing. She eventually starts acting it out and Umi is letting her play around since she doesn't think it'll lead anywhere. This is where the WN is at
>>
>>287914354
From a girls perpective this sounds like a serious plot.
>>
>>287914354
The drama comes from the mob characters being cunts to the main characters.

He literally spends 15 chapters NOT saying he loves her back, he (and the mangaka) are faggot retards
>>
I tried reading the novel but he has an actual male friend at the start so the whole premise is ruined, stupid eleven
>>

>Umi is letting her play around since she doesn't think it'll lead anywhere.
So this bitch is fine letting her boyfriend lead her best friend on knowing it'll only end with him breaking her heart even harder

> Title : I Become Friends with the Second Most cutest girl in my class.
> Immediately make the readers see Umi as the underdog and root for her.
> Anybody who wants to cheer for Yuu will feel shallow for choosing the cutest girl over the 2nd cutest girl.

I wondered why the author specifically referred Umi as the 2nd cutest girl but now I have figured out this to be the part of a brilliant mind game In normal circumstances most readers would have choose Yuu but the author manipulated them into supporting Umi though the novel's title.
>>
>>287939801
It clearly didn't work
>>
>>287923288
Are you the 2nd prettiest girl?
>>
>>287923243
That's not proof of anything. You are a guy and recognize the "realistic portrayal" of female friendships. Any other guy could know it too and write about it.
>>

author got caught liking rape porn of the girls in pixiv so now all the western normie yurifags that vote on this polls turned on the series
>>

so it's not over yet?
meh I bet the blueshit will win in the end then
>>
>>287941918
good, botan is garbage anyway
>>
>>287942007
No, it is over
Author said he might write something like a sequel (hopefully not)
>>
>>287940133
Considering how popular this novel got, it did work.
>>
>>287941796
The Gosling queen is already on the podium

Rejoice, the 3rd prettiest girl will get her episode next week!

how do you realistically cut off a sweet talking parasite?

>>287946478
The only parasite is Maki, siphoning all of the classes' cutest girls for himself
>>
>>287946517
Meh dating Umi is fine since nobody gives a fuck about her according to her, now I'd steer clear of Yuu because dating her is just a timebomb waiting to explode, with her being the class idol and all.
>>
>>287946574
t. low test faggot

whatever lil bro, have fun with the class bike.
