Misumi pondering
The animation style feels different this episode. I wonder if they have a new animator taking the lead this episode?

Hi guys, let me hang out with you here.
Our bros are still alive.
nips unconfirmed??? what is this inconsistency? i waited for the nips?
No shogi this time.
>>288153609my old man nipples...
i'm really glad they adapted the taira scenes well. felt just like when i read it
it's like reading a VN if you read the manga along with the episodes each week. the lines are pulled directly. I seriously love this type of adaptation. vanitas, orb, this- they all do it, and do it very well.
>ENTER SEXO OLD MANhe's finally here. one of my favorites
Nagano's death was really kino. I'm glad they paid attention to his eyes upon death.
he's so hot.. my wife..
Yeah i was right about the pacing after all. wajimafags rejoice. she's going to be most of the episode next week along with old gay homos. i'm ready for yasuaki
God, should have been me!
Rate his ass.

When was the last time Misumi did anything
>>288154316Large cast of characters that gets larger as time goes on
>>288153836He's got some crazy facial hair for a Japanese.
>>28815440290% of the cast has facial hair. even misumi (before he shaves it again)
>>28815378410/10, very flexible ojii-san.
>>288154550Which is odd, for the Japanese. But he stands out because that's a full beard. Are we supposed to assume these Japanese are really mixed compared to what we know today or something (considering the dark skinned feller), or is it just "author has a fetish for facial hair"?
>>288154659>for the Japanesenot really anon. there are more full bearded (and goateed) guys than you expect. have you ever been to japan at least recently? the stigma against facial is declining and more guys grow beards
Holy shit, this little shit is actually being humbled like he deserved?Thank god.
>>288154701>been to Japan recentlyYeah, December, in Hokkaido and Tokyo (for Comiket). Clean shaven was still the norm.
>>288154725I told you! I told you all that Taira Tonotsugu was a good character! He's the best.
>>288154996Denki is the best.
>>288154882I saw plenty of men with beards. clean shaven is the norm yes, but it's not as stigmatized as it used to be 5-10 years ago. I usually go down south + tokyo. I haven't been to Hokkaido in around 2 years so i can't say much there.
>>288155276What is a son's duty if not to surpass his father?
>>288154402 It’s Sengoku-era fanfiction Japan, not your salaryman at Shinjuku Station. Half the cast looks like they crawled out of a Kurosawa film after living in the mountains for 10 years. Also stress + war + zero grooming standards = everyone turns into a bearded hermit. Author clearly just likes his men rugged and miserable. Can’t blame him desu.

>>288155834>Yamato 60/Seiki 51, Late Winter: Yoshitsune Asama (age 20) is appointed Deputy Master of Arms. Misumi Aoteru (age 18) is appointed Auditor of the Borderland General Corps.>Yamato 60/Seiki 51, Early Spring: • At 2:23pm, Misumi Aoteru oversees the hanging of Deputy Clerk Machiyama for robbery resulting in three murders and one sexual assault.• At 9:00pm, in the Seii capital of Seiro, Ohga Wajima, daughter of Byakko Wajima and Western Expedition Commander, initiated the Seii Coup due to the current government’s acceptance of the unconditional surrender from Yamato.• At 12:00am, the Seiro Eighth Armory is raided by the anti-surrender faction and Master of Arms Rinririn Sato (pro-surrender), along with two others, are killed by Muuton Nagao.• At 12:12am: Reports arrive to the Kura Squad that the Kuro Squad has procured weapons for the coup to Aterui Kura.• At 12:25am, Seiro’s Governor’s Residence: Governor of Seiro, Hikabi Asahima, and one soldier are killed by Kura and his men.• Other casualties of the Pro-Surrender Faction: Fire Chief Saito Ahara (age 52), Police Chief Masatake Sasaki (age 57), Construction Governor-General Kobayashi Horori (age 46), Finance Governor-General Shinokō Shikimudo (age 69).

>>288155889>Yamato 60/Seiki 51, Spring:• Yamato Secret Officer Shinzo Haranishi arrives in Osaka to report on the coup in Seii. During an audience with Mitsuhide Ryumon, Emperor Fuji III, and Denki Taira, Tonotsugu Taira enters and reports that Governor Muuton Nagao of Kaga Province wishes to defect to Yamato. To support this effort, the emperor orders the deployment of 35,000 troops: 30,000 led by Tonotsugu, the remainder led by Mitsuhide Ryumon.• At 11:05am, Aoteru and Yoshitsune hear the news of the troop deployment.• At 12:00pm, it is announced that Right Lieutenant General Sugoh and Left Lieutenant General Nagamine have left with Tonotsugu and the 30,000 troops. Clerk Kinta Moriyama suggests that the Borderland Corps allies with Seii to take down Denki Taira. For inciting others to defect and undermining morale, he is sentenced to exile for three years.
>>288155918>Yamato 60/Seiki 51, Spring:• Tonotsugu Taira’s unit has entered Kaga, while at Kanazawa Castle, Assistant Supervisor of Seii Negotiations Basashi Hatta and Deputy Archivist Junichi Tamaki of Yamato watch Muuton Nagao get flogged due to unfounded rumors.• Two hours later, at the Tedori River, a soldier reports that there are no signs of ambush. Returning from Kanazawa Castle, Junichi Tamaki reports that there will be a banquet held at the castle this evening.• At 11:20pm at Komatsu Airport in Komatsu Ward, Ryumon receives word that Tonotsugu Taira has already crossed the river into Kanazawa Castle. Sensing that this is a trap, Ryumon decides to fall back to Fukui.• At the same time, back at Yoshitsune’s residence, Misumi realizes that due to the recent upheaval in Seii, they would not want to fight on their territory and that there’s a possibility that Seii may invade Yamato via the Fukui District in Okuetsu Prefecture. Because of Seii military reforms, the previously dangerous Hakusan area has been repaired, allowing easy access to Yamato through the Tani Tunnel.• Seii sets fire to several villages in Yamato, arriving at Kuzuryu Castle. Deputy Castellan Hina Hiraizumi and Castellan Yoshinaga assess the situation: 2,000 soldiers against roughly 40,000 soldiers on the Seii side. Not wanting to call for reinforcements due to being under the purview of Denki Taira, they receive word that Ryumon is on his way to Fukui and need only to hold out until evening.• As evening approaches, Aterui Kura reports to the survivors in the castle that other Seii forces under the command of Ohga Wajima have moved on Katsuyama and Ono Castles. He gives an ultimatum: provide the head of the castellan and everyone else will live. The Yamato forces refuse and fight against Aterui Kura and his forces.
>>288155834>>288155889>>288155889>>288155918>>288155943Here's what it looked like before - I realize at the start of this episode that I messed up the Seii troop numbers that invaded, will get around to fixing that at some point:https://desuarchive.org/a/thread/288008211/#288024666https://desuarchive.org/a/thread/288008211/#288025047https://desuarchive.org/a/thread/288008211/#288025734https://desuarchive.org/a/thread/288008211/#288026542https://desuarchive.org/a/thread/288008211/#288027045https://desuarchive.org/a/thread/288008211/#288042200If anyone is interested in turning all of this into an infographic, let me know
>>288156163You realize this information is printed within the volumes? 日本三國史紀 is the new name that'll be used with the reprint.
>>288156862Oh, I didn't realize. I don't think it's available in English yet, so please forgive my autism. Man, I thought I was doing something useful for once.
>>288156975Is the guy doing it not doing that part of the volumes or something?
>>288157032To my knowledge, no. I just largely browse here, but if someone is doing threads for the manga, I haven't seen them.
Also, what incredible hubris to use the exact same strategy against the exact same person that your father was defeated by. I'll be surprised if she wins despite all of this.
>>288157266I'll just post a page from vol.1, sorry for the small page right but it's like this. Each volume gives information different about different parts. Vol. 1 is prehistory, there is always relationship flow charts, information on important character plot points, vol 5 goes for a timeline again.
>>288157726The small page is fine, seems like there's more worldbuilding than I thought.
This got boring very fast
>>288158722A decent chunk happened this episode, sadly, the cute glasses girl and awesome castellan guy died. Here lies Muuton Nagao, the strongest (weakest) Ohga Wajima simp
>>288158805>spent all his time partying and getting whipped>tries to do 1 (one) thing of his own initiative>fucking diesNo wonder he only got put in change of unimportant shit.
>>288153552Honestly I die a little inside every time I see it, but I suppose it does convey the sense that war is rough
Wtf I like Taira now
>>288159320Yeah, I half-expected him to do more compared to how he was introduced, but this works out also. I think he was shot through the letter he got from Ohga.>>288155943>Yamato 60/Seiki 51, Spring:• The following morning, at Kuzuryu Castle, it is reported by Seii Chief Strategist Yayakichi Hei that the capture of Kuzuryu Castle is complete, but heavy losses were suffered and Aterui Kura is injured. In addition, both Katsuyama Castle and Ono Castle have been taken. Okuetsu has been taken over by Seii. • Concerned that Ryumon has turned back, Muuton Nagao decides to take out Left General Sugoh that evening, since the Self-Injury Stratagem has failed.• That evening, Yamato guards are killed, along with Junichi Tamaki. Tonotsugu Taira comes to the aid of General Sugoh. While attempting escape, Sugoh is shot by Muuton Nagao, but gets rescued by Left Lieutenant General Shiryo Nagamine, killing Muuton Nagao and wiping out the Seii forces in Kanazawa Castle. 194 Yamato soldiers were killed in action.• Five days later, in the capital, protests break out over the war in Osaka.
When it first came out, I assumed this was a fujoshit-pandering anime. Then I noticed all the dudes with facial hair in this thread and realized it can't possibly be a fujo anime.Maybe I'll give it a try.
nyooo they were going to have dinner, misumi-kun...
>>288153482people actually watch this wokeslop netflix shit?
>>288160371It's clearly a regular occurence anon, don't worry about it.
Those that have read ahead please spoil me, will the Taira suffer in the future?
>>288154725that was fast>>288160479>>288158722good morning saar
>>288154725I love smug shits getting humbled into a redemption arc
>>288154725I thought he was just gonna die honestly. Nice to see he's not a throwaway character and that he'll actually try to hold his father accountable on the shit he put him through.
>>288160551I wouldn't be surprised if mc eventually recognizes Taira as necessary evil.
i refuse to believe glasses girl died, she shows up in the OP, she must be running around the forest lost and will show up at a very important moment to save the day
>>288160479Nothing about this even comes close to " wokeslop " it's just standard fujobait but with historical fiction and high production values
>>288162026Don't reply to drive-by shitposts.
>introduce black guy>"wow it sure is hard making a living in this country if you don't have yellow skin">immediately gets killedWhat did they mean by this?
Do other countries that aren't the remnants of old nippon appear in some way in this series? Like for example stuff being imported from nearby asia, or some descendants of refugees who fled the nuclear war?
>>288161596Ryumon read the casualty list, Anon. She and her cute smile are gone. I mean, the black guy shows up in the OP also and we saw what happened today.
>>288162284Given the background I would assume almost every refugee got slaughtered, actually this guy >>288162215 still being alive to this point is baffling.
I'm sad the anime already catched up the scans. It's gonna be a long time until the scans pass through the anime
>>288163399>actually this guy >>288162215 still being alive to this point is baffling.he's not black, he's just a tanned guy from okinawa
>>288161596She's dead Jim. Glasses girl and Sato were the only generals stationed at the castle and as so are the only two wearing blazers. Theres a lingering shot as Wajima walks through the aftermath of the battle of someone wearing a blazer dead on the ground. Since Sato's head is in the box as proof of conquest the body on the battlefield is most likely her. I'm actually glad they're killing characters that seemed like they were going to do something of note in the OP makes things feel more real anyone could get it next. I thought the black dude Tama was just going to come away with a cool new scar but no they just killed him.
>Can see that Taira still has two bullets left in the chamber >Exactly two shots go off afterwards as he attempts to shoot more but there's none leftIts the little things like that that do it for me.
>>288154996you told me anon, and I didn't listen. I owe you an apology for my disrespect
Anon, are you preparing for the extraordinary?
>>288153541>proceeds to completely ruin the planBehead all simps
what's up with all the retards calling every character gay
>>288154725Brat redemption arc?
>>288164444I got myself a shoebox full of canned food just in case of emergencies.
>>288162215just like the glasses cutie last week I thought both would live more since they are in the opening kek
Is the subtitles fucking up whenever a name comes on screen erai-raws' bot fucking up the typesetting or just amazon's incompetence?
>>288165612They don't understand the show isn't fujobait but the female equivalent of waifubait
>>288165826Amazon doesn't give a shit about anime typesetting and puts signs in the same place as dialogue. So the text for a sign will shown for a few seconds while a character talks and then switch over to the subtitle. Basically they use ancient subtitle standards that don't work for anime but they don't care since anime is just a small part of their streaming library.
>>288166114If you learn hiragana this is a non issue
>>288166195Well no because the subs for the name usually interrupt the spoken dialogue subs so you have to go back and pause to catch what they were saying.
Why are there no phones or even a telegraph in this world? It's dumb that they're just passing each other paper notes. This world makes no sense.
wtf I liked that guy
>>288165862>show isn't fujobaitLol, lmao even
>>288153482I think Seii deserves to win
live
>>288166726Yes some elements are pretty dumb if you start to think about them, the concept of telecommunication is fairly easy to understand and execute, even if they wiped this knowledge for some reason it wouldn't mean that literally everyone forgot about it, at least the higher ranks should have the means to use and control it.
>>288163766he is clearly a dude with not-mongoloid features, and what he said in the episode confirm it. The thing made sense considered the setting is in the future of our world
>>288169070I feel like copper cable theft would probably wreck telecommunications within the first week or whateverI mean, I guess there is still radio and they should have books that explain how to make itIdk I think of this as a character driven show anyway
>>288169070>>288166726I dunno, outside of the to 1% of people the author seems to be wanting a majority of the people in this post apocalypse Japan as genuine mouth breathing idiots.There are a few other questions I have, like where are the tobacco plantations they'd need to maintain they absurd smoking rate, like seriously Ryumon is going through like 6 cigars in one sesh and he isn't even fully smoking them.
Women with big tits can get away with anything.
>>288172055Look at those CANNONS, this is all you need for your dictatorship to be unilaterally accepted.
>>288172050>he isn't even fully smoking themWith cigars you are supposed to get the flame going then let the smoke fill the room. You aren't meant to puff them like a cigarette
>>288172050Planet Namek.
>>288172055>>288172101>killed instead of rapedYeah, the author is a feminist basedboy.What a waste of ample bosom.
>>288169209>not-mongoloid featuresare we doing 19th century skull calipers on anime characters now?It’s a stylized design in a post-collapse setting, not a National Geographic photoshoot. The line in the episode was about lineage/politics, not “race science.” The author clearly just wants a vaguely mixed future where borders melted and bloodlines got messy. Trying to map modern ethnic categories onto big-eyed cartoon people is peak schizo behavior.
>>288166727At that moment I thought he would fall and they switch their attention to the general and then he would survive with a cool scar, but they stubbed him a few more times.
>>288172055>huge boobs>revenge-obsessed schizotwo things I love the most
>>288172573Huh, that's my bad for being a pleb who doesn't smoke cigars then. Still, he seems to go through a lot regardless.
>>288154402jomon genes resurgence after yayoi faggots died out
>>288161536Why would the mangaka kill off their shota husbando?
>>288173833Holy shit you just summed up the whole show>Jomon Vs Yayoi>Ryumon and Co = Jomon>Taira clan = Yayoi
>>288173948>shotaNot for long
>>288153482How gay is this show? All the images I've seen make it seem mightily gay. But the summary makes it sound kinda cool, so I might give it a watch if the style just happens to be a littly fruity by accident instead of on purpose.
>typical seinen art style is gayback to DBZ threads with you, amigo
