This season's yuri show is airing in a few hours, get in here
>>>/u/
>>289309360Start a thread for it there and I'll be happy to move.
>>289309564This
>>289309102This season's Agents of the 4 Seasons, although admittedly less stupid.
>>289309102Going take a few episodes before the yuri starts though
>>289312437Pretty sure by the end of the first volume she calls her her miracle comet right?
>>289309102Gachi?
>>289312511The miracle comet scene is at the start of the second manga volume, so it won't be until episode 3 or 4 depending on the pacingThat said, Episode 2 should have the beginnings of Reirin x Leelee
>>289312739>people will see this and keep insisting this is NOT yuriI do wonder if normies will like the male "lead" on top of getting so little screentime he's boring and also his first cousin, but by looking at 100GF i think they will just make alabama jokes and that's it
>>289312889so why doesn't the author... skip the males?
>>289309102Great another anime I need to pick up. I'm watching too many this season now.
>>289313730>so why doesn't the author... skip the males?They were hard mandated by the editor, thankfully by volume 4 they're mostly gone and only reirin's brothers who ship them remain
>>289313901>by volume 4ah, so the anime is fucked desu ne? wakarimasu.
>>289313908>ah, so the anime is fucked desu ne? wakarimasu.yeah... I think the anime might just reach the end of the untouchables arc
>>289309102Based>>289309360Cringe
>>289313730It's josei, so the publisher would want to make the male characters more marketable to sell more merch to yumejoshi
>>289309102>"Hey, you'll give people the wrong idea"fucking yuribait
It's a yuribait THOUGH
>>289312889Totally not het guys!
>>289309102>yuri>in joseiYou faggots never learn, do you?
>>289309102WHERE IS IT?IS IT OUT YET AAAAAAAAAAA
>>289309102It's not yuri. Ignore them. Reirin's going with her first cousin and Keigetsu is going with Reirin's brother.>>289318079It's in three hours.
>>289317838Yuriniggers must be very desperate if they're seriously planning to latch onto this.
>>289312437There's no yuri in the latest volume of the light novel. How long do you plan on keeping this up.>>289309564>>289310348Both of you are big enough faggots to pull off being OP.
>>289309102but can it top kimishinu
>>289319382because this one ain't yuri, faggot.
>>289319686why is the OP lying to me?
>>289319692It's a troll who has been doing this for years with this series
So who is actually watching this? !Keigetsu is very cute.
>>289319833I'm biding my time for a poverty reencode. Almost didn't see the thread because of the manga OP pic.
>>289319833>keigetsuAnon...
>>289320203The ! in front means "not" in computer programming.
>>289319833which subs should I use?
>>289320286I just picked the first one that came out, it was fine.
SubsPlease puts the airtime in ~15 minutes. What an odd airtime, does Japanese TV often start/end on 15/45-minute marks?
my ears are happy anons
>>289320794Probably first el is almost an 1hour long
well that is some intrigue. let's see how it develops.
>>289320885>a western pig
>>289321494? fag, what is your opinion on fairouz ai?
Is SubsPlease dropping the ball harder than usual this season or am I just watching enough that I'm noticing it more? I've never had to set my torrent filters to ToonsHub instead this often before.
>>289319833Definitely watching it today, I been looking forward to this one every since I read the manga for months now, love those two goofballs
>>289321680Troonsplease always fucks up the start of the season. Hub is much more reliable
>>289321541>a gaijin pig
>>289321680>>289321908always watch amazon anons, amazon fucks up less things when transcoding. after seeing rel i gave up on CR. >>285177930 >>285201862>>289321927now i know all i need, you're a worthless tastelet and mongrel.
>>289319833Keigetsu reminds me of Kguy with her whole color scheme of black and red robes, I hope she's a dork too
>>289321927She is more japanese than you faggot
>>289322097Keigetsu is a scheming whore, but she's hot as hell. Reirin is a cute dork, though fragile and looks like a stiff breeze will knock her over.With the body swap, Keigetsu has inadvertently created the ultimate existence.
>>289322707>scheming whore, but she's hot as hell.
>>289322397>She is more japanese than you faggotONE DROP RULE
>>289324245by that rule literally no nipcuck is a joumonchad like the ainu anymore. only yayoichuds from bugland and gookland.i'd say egyptian blood elevates the whole package tbqh.
Another instant classic
>>289324751the weak are the strongest
Would you a pure girl pretending to be a slut?
>>289324295Cute Keigetsu the real one
>>289325251she should be with some honest upstanding bunkan not the imperial scum who can't appreciate her
Frekels are so ugly it's unreal.
>>289325417Yuri is banned in China.
>>289325392her design is so sexed up it's unreal. faggot ass prince needs to pass the ball.
>>289325392fag
>>289319833Gonna give notmaomao a try I guess, 20+ shows is way too much though
>permanent bitch faceI hate her.
>>289325828wife
>>289325828>get her in bed>see this faceI can see why the prince said "no thanks."
>>289325828Kino, I want her to step on me.
>>289325828Which one?
>>289325828i wonder how reirin will correct her servants.in haruka's novel most people faced with her kindness lose their toxicity real fast
>>289325285Which one? Keigetsu's real body, or the real Keigetsu in Reirin's body?
Gah, I can't read that fast!
>>289326559>slut>slut>slutall you need to know, really.
ENTER
>>289326548Keigetsu in Reirin skinny and bonny body
>>289326559>read it>forget a second laterok.>imprisoned for throwing the girl off a balconySo it ends on episode since they'll execute her? Nice way to write yourself into a cornter where it's either an oneshot or you have no choice but to write some retarded contrived shit setting your series on the 'shit writing' route from day1. Epic.
SEX with evil women. SEX. SEX
>>289326872That could kill her
>>289312889yeah yeah we have heard its yuri multiple times from you before
>>289326955>>289327041Yeah, what are you going to do about it little buddy?
>>289326919Good. That's even sexier, reminds me of Amatsutsumi
qt
>>289327059Nothing. Go join your fellow queer shippers. It's not the first time they stubbornly insist on it into believing such thing. In the end nothing will happen when it ends.
First episode was good, but maybe because it's just anime. Is the LN any good?
>>289327493I don't know but the manga is.
>>289320073cute baka
>>289327493The Light Novels are greatReirin and especially Keigetsu are among my most favorite female leads
>>289328265>the two feMCs are my favorite...good!
>confirmed only 11 episodes We fucking lost
>>289328585i bet it's to adjust pacing to arc lengths no? maybe better than stretching out without a good artistic sense for it
>>289327250>Keigetsu: enjoy my body that is HATED by everyone before you get executed jajajaja>Reirin: You mean your perfect resilient body that doesn't break into a fever for the slightest physical effort?It's no wonder Reirin is on cloud 9 right now how can the prince or anyone else even compete here bros? He can't bodyswap or fix Reirin's doomed body, if Reirin wasn't an inept villainess she would have either poisoned or killed Keigetsu to make sure they would never switch bodies again.
>>289328585>only the first arc so no Reirin's brosGonna have to hope this does good enough to get a second season, I love those guys
*cheers and applause*
>>289328585Man, it's like every show I'm watching this season is shortened.
Truly, a body made for plowing and sowing fields.
Kek I forgot the prince was a little shit back then compared to later on in the manga.
>>289328585Manga-wise, the first arc covers vol.1 to 4, for a total of 20 chapters, this episode adapted chapter 1 and 2 so that should be enough.
>>289326559Just try to remember the chinese elements they're associated with and it'll be easier
>>289328906If Keigetsu had thought this through for longer than 5 minutes about how retarded her plan was she could have just pushed the crown prince and swap with him instead of reirin and rule all over Not!china, instead of being his favorite concubine kek.
>>289329376slime is getting kingly treatment, and honzuki a good one so i do pity you
>>289329867woman moment. living as the opposite gender wouldn't be easy in her mind, with her upbringing and education.
>>289329995Plus Keigetsu is envious of all the attention and pampering reirin gets, she is starving for affection and is desperate enough to gamble her life on a bodyswap, she wants the hated court rat Keigetsu to die and reborn herself as the beloved reirin, which is very sad since she was ready to watch her own corpse be mutated by lion or thrown rocks at..she really hates herself.
>>289329555Thanks.>Palace of the Darkest Edge
>>289329867She got groomed by the real big bad.
>>289328585I mean, it's perfectly fine to adapt the the first arc.
>>289329867>If Keigetsu had thought this through for longer than 5 minutes about how retarded her plan was she could have just pushed the crown prince and swap with him instead of reirin and rule all over Not!china, instead of being his favorite concubine kek.it wouldn't have worked the crown prince has stronger powers than keigetsu, had she tried that on him it wouldn't have worked and she would have been executed, later on I think she mentions herself the prince is stronger as well
AIEEEEEEEEEE YURI BROS NOT LIKE THIS!!
>>289328906just a grim reminder that these two are blood related first cousins
>>289309102use the japanese title too next time, retarded faggot tertiary
>bodyjackedKINO
is this yuri?
>>289331380If they masturbate
I am really fucking tired of villaines anime and have basically ignored them for years at this point but this was pretty good. Nothing out of the ordinary that I wouldn't expect from the premise, but good"Could this be one of my people?" - Maomao
>>289331275isn't the whole reason keigetsu's taoist powers are banned/criminalized that the royal family wants to monopolize magic?
:3
>>289331292This IS the yuri way.>>289331380Those OP animators knew what they were doing.
>>289331424no, catcat. i only watched this and read about it in the yuri thread, but reirin is just an stacy with infinite power of wholesomeness. you will 'not' stand in her way and manage to keep seething for long.
>>289320885>Kayanon voicing a momIt's over....
GOD thats hot
>>289331503come now, she already voiced aishe (teenager with the personality of a hag), a 'mom'-spirit in slime 300 s2, i think it was her as an ultrahag officer in aldnoah.so it's not even the first.>>289331541i mean it's fire anon
>u gonna die>she makes this facewhat in yuri tarnation is she trying to convey?
>>289331295At least they're actually cousins. They could go more incestual
bodyjacker bros... we won!
this series would be so much better if the crown prince didn't exist, it's obvious people only read this for the main leads
>>289331541Evil Reirin is so fine oh my god
>>289329104"She's gonna say the thing isn't she">Seconds laterleopoint.gif
>>289329867But she wants to be Reirin and have her life specifically
>>289331541>become miserable!>oh my god why am i dying? wtfKeigetsu is so pathetic holy shit, that's adorable.
>>289331444>monopolizethis smells like post factum fluff for the following:>>289331275>the prince is strongeraha yes, the classic muh yume rapechad is the strongest around, naruhodo, thanks publisher-san
>>289331686But I read it for this
>>289331927he's got literal plot armor
this would likely have been better with gay witches being the strongest magicians around, having some mythology rooted mission to fulfill, and court drama getting backseated as too small scale to care about.>>289331927how embarrassing. what site spoilers like this.
>>289331973This is josei though
>>289331837>Teasing Keigetsu who is inside Reirin's body, the body of his sister.Incest chads we are eating so good
>>289332030there's already magic, hags should dream
>>289331444Have you read the light novel? I'm pretty sure that the manga hasn't reached that part.It's a crime to practice the Daoist art in the royal palace except the shaman is allowed to. It's fine to practice the arts outside of the palace, but that's because the emperor is killing and interrogating the Daoist practitioners who make themselves known. The emperor is on the path of total Daoist death and the empress is still covered in mystery.>>289331836He's specifically blessed by the divinity. It's hard for spells to be cast on him or something specific.>>289331941>>289331973Those were directed towards this, but I messed the spoilers. Plot armor is when someone doesn't die or get injured because the plot demands such. This is just normal armor if anything.
>>289332047would've been kinoer if it was BR yuri incest tho
>>289331837Reirin's girl friend is so cute.
Reirin is for Shin-uKeigetsu is for Reirin's brother
>>289332206After they bodyswap of course
>>289325392This post is so gay it's unreal.
Look, all I'm saying is that the first sounds of the OST sounded like how the first episode of Apothecary.
>fantasy china>imperial court drama>villainess>NOT an isekaihow mysterious
>>289313908This is likely popular enough to get S2. Honestly series naturally becoming yuri because readers prefer it that way is even better than something that starts as yuri.
Shaddick being a prince by birth this time.
Keigetsu was pure sex in her own body and is also sex in the MC's body. The notChinks have horrendous taste.
kek its the otome cage
>>289325828Sex.>>289325392>>289326056It's not okay to be gay, anon.>>289331295>grim???
>>289333384Now you get why she's the most popular character
>literally no one>/a/: JUST INJECT THIS AKUJO SLOPPA INTO MY VEINSwhy
>>289333838I'm actually not into Akujo stuff at all and I think it's significantly become oversaturated but at least the setup and premise here is very different from the norm
>>289333603Here's the poll they had for it. Notice who's missing from the top 10. Spoilered just in case
>>289333384Keigetsu looks like she does farm labour, no can do.
>>289333959I was intrigued by the all out assault of like 10 named characters with big bold signs next to them telling me I need to remember them or else, within the first 2 minutes
>>289333383Is it really the same VA?>Makoto FurukawaDamn, son.>>289333384That duckface cracks me up. I'm waiting to see how the show handles redeeming her, since her life doesn't look THAT bad so far.
>>289331295Indeed, they could at least be half-siblings but it is what it is.>>289333318Iirc the editor absolutely meant for this book series to be a straight romance from the get go, but the prince really wasn't well received among the nip readers, and it took a while for the lead replacement to arrive which meant even more Reirin and Keigetsu interactions which brought this very fun situation we find ourselves in.
>>289334042wtf I love farm labourers now???
If anyone wants to see just how much yuri to expect from this the author wrote a another shorter story set in a chinese style palace that's fully translated. It's basically about a girl who keeps failing upwards when all she wants to do is run away
>>289332616Hey I recognize that show. Great ED.
>>289333838>noble women>evil womenMy two weaknesses...
>>289333838They are making tons of this shit because it's popular. Hilariously it's probably the only kind of shojo shit that has like 50/50 gender split among fans. It's like women reading battle shonen for hot guys.
Why are chinese girls just instantly pure sex for me? What is wrong with me?
>>289333899>a side character more popular than the "main" leadlol, lmao, why do they even try with that prince
I'm actually surprised we don't get main prince backlash in more series. They are garbage 90% of the time.
>>289331660So will she try to help out her enemy by making medicine or find a treatment to heal her original feeble body?
>>289327131I'm surprised she could even move that much in that getup
>>289331541>Evil Iwami Manakamy penis can only get so hard
>>289336393that was iwami manaka? sorry anon but you need an ear check. reirin the soul gets iwami as CV.
>>289320885purple haired chino spotted
I enjoyed this a lot more than I expected to. The heroin is actually really endearing.
>>289336549>herointhat so old school. have you tried feMCanyl
>>289325628China is a yuri nation unironically.
>>289325628They are crazy about Ave Mujica. Mihoyo started with a yuri game and is going full yuri again recently. And their media is full of lesbian stuff in general. They only hate faggots.
holy shit she's perfect!
>>289334418No? The captain was always there, he's more popular than the Prince, but not nearly enough to overshadow Keigetsu.
Our villainess is so beautiful...
Yeah this is gonna be good.
>Rat and ButterflyHeh, wasn't expecting villainess to be a real sorceress. MC is such an obvious MaoMao clone with the rats and bugs. Lion scene was a bit awkward. Good start overall.
>>289338683I remember the lion dying in the manga so that scene was a little weird to me or was it reirin just coping that she could save the lion? Kek
>spinny cameraPretty bold of Doga Kobo to pick a fight with GoHands while GoHands' magnum opus is literally airing right now.
>>289338927>shitty isekai>magnum opus They are never beating this:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aTdDYP7-KXA
>>289339034It's about the visuals, broski. None of their previous works came even close to this feast for the eyes.
>All the pairs in the opening are showing scary faces except for themThey are the true villainess, right?
>>289339137>They are the true villainess, right?is it that obvious?
>>289320885Same. It's quite a treat hearing Manati doing that angry rant.
I clapped.
>>289336470Nta, but that's definitely Iwami's voice.
>>289339222ok i'll go do sudoku. their inner talk is their CVs, but when mouths move the body's CV speaks.
>>289339137>voiced by Inori
>>289339137They are all good girls.
This was "too impromptu" in my opinion, I was expecting the episode to end with the change, we don't even know the MC enough to root for her on the current situation, and too many arbitrary rules that we are simply supposed to accept because "is magic bro" which makes me question why not just use these superpowers for other things, also the way they handle the exposition was pretty lame, unless you tell me that this work with the rules of Hunter x Hunter where your power increase by explaining everything to your enemy, and why would anyone believe the poisoned rat story to begin with? I'm just not feeling this one.
>>289325828I can fix her.
>>289339857
>>289325828Does the redhead punch her in spots that others can't see?
>>289309102Not Isekai Villainness ? Just body swap Villainness ?
>>289339443wait for real? how does that work? I thought I was tripping.
hmm seems like our villainess is quite a dork. will continue watching.
>>289339137Reirin is the villainess.
>>289340993Not a villainess show.>no reincarnation>no game>the "villain" is still part of the castIs just a series with a quirky premise.
>>289312437>>289312511Wait are you fuckers trolling? I'm anime-only so I thought this was normal romance, and after the first episode it seems like black-haired ponytail guy is the love interest?
>>289341596its got akujo in the title, so sadly it qualifies
>>289341628hetbaited
>>289341628It's not yuri but it's got some extreme female gays.
>>289341689I guess this is why /a/ shits on MAL so much, it had no yuri tags at all. kek dropped
>>289341739Yuri =/= Lesbians
>>289341762
>>289341681We already had this discussion with Akujiki Reijou to Kyouketsu Koushaku, not a villainess show.
you need to watch the Crunchyroll rip that is has modified subs by TSPlease release group, all the other subs are fucked. TS please adds typesetting back that CR has not been doing properly for many shows in English .ass subs. Bilibili has a completely different original script translation subtitle too. NF, Disney+ and CR use the same base subs.
>>289341739faggot
>>289336519This picture shows characters voiced by Mai Nakahara, Yui Ishikawa, and Inori Minase. And you don't have to hear them speak to know which each is.
>>289331615She'd been preparing to die for years. That face means "Yeah, I know...".
>>289341816>you won't watch my gay romance? you're a fag!
>>289331615>komarimasu yo okyaku-sama...
>>289341831Fuck.... you're right.
>>289338927>single plane>not clipping through walls>hair not movingThey're not even trying. And where are the stock Blender store assets?
>>289341628There is 'love' between them but it's more of a best friend/sisterly type without being romantic/sexual. The both of them are literally the first friends either of them have ever had in their lives so they get a little over the top sometimes. The pic in OP is from a bonus page at the end of a manga volume and never actually happens within the series itself
>>289341843watching yuri doesn't make a man gay, just like watching yaoi doesn't make a woman gay
Every time he spoke I expected to hear Tiararose going "WAAAA"
>>289341805all these words but a simple 'i dekinai' would have been enough.disney comes out first, simple as.>>289341937orz
>>289342092I wish to be held by him.
>There is a piece of me that's uncomfortable with this scenario. Having Kougetsu be punished by putting her in Reirin's body isn't a great look, even as Reirin is rewarded with a healthy one. Chronic illness absolutely can feel like a punishment and like it's not worth living, but using it specifically as a punishment for Kougetsu isn't a great look. I'm glad Reirin is healthy and energetic now, but again, health isn't a reward for being a good person. That of course wasn't Kougetsu's intent when she orchestrated the body swap; she didn't realize that Reirin was in poor health. But there will be a temptation to frame it as her getting her just desserts, and that's simply not okay.Why do these dumbfucks always have to make everything about social justice
>>289342201Do your research if you intend to bodyswap! Let this be a lesson that will be useful to you in the future.and fuck twitter/tumblr/wherever the fuck this idiocy was from
>>289342201>Kougetsu
>>289342201>repeated phrases>restating the same thing multiple ways>"Having ...">"There will be ..."I'm guessing this is LLM output.Also, kys for dragging r*dditshit in here.
>>289339137It's a palace drama, assume backstabbing bitches unless proven otherwise
>>289341831Kek.
>>289332616Nyannyan my beloved...
>>289339137Compared to this generation of young girls,the previous generation of young girls were all villains.
Fortunately, the emperor is not a normal person.Otherwise, an ordinary person, surrounded by five women with unstable personalities,would definitely go crazy.
The empress had a momentary flash of disgust towards her niece. Later, the novel did indeed develop in that direction.
>>289341949It makes them homophiles, which is still bad.
>>289328998If I remember correctly, the LN and manga sales were already more than 5 million even before the animeWon't be surprised if there's a 2nd season in production that's ready to be announced after the last episode
>>289333899lmao, why is the prince so unpopular?
>>289339443>>289340996I noticed that quickly, and appreciated the attention to detail.>>289341596But it has villainess in the title! It's hilarious to me that I somehow keep picking up nonstandard ones, so I still have no grasp on the rules of the genre.
>>289344497He's an antagonist of sorts. I do think that his character is well written though, but people may not like him since he's an antagonist.
>>289344619>antagonistonly in the beginning
>>289344603if the 'villainess' is reincarnated, always fussing about "oh noes I'm going to die because the plot of the game/novel dictate me to die!", 80% of the story is focusing and always talking about how to outsmart the plot/system, then it is guaranteed shit.
>>289325828Keigetsu(real) is the best though
>>289334333>her life doesn't look THAT bad so far.Oh you have no idea
>>289333899I find this poll funny, because I read the LN and I don't even think the prince is that bad, while I think the captain there (4th place) the most boring character of the whole cast
>>289342201When all you have is a hammer, every anime looks like a nail.
>>289344841He continues to be miffed for a while afterwards. I don't know if it was a poll based on the manga or novel, but since Seika is up there I'd guess that it's for the novel.
The story is only good when it's about Keigetsu and Reirin interacting (early on it was Reirin and Leelee, but Leelee gets shoved aside quite quickly)The rest of the cast isn't that interesting, save for Seika (and even she is better when she's bouncing off Keigetsu) and Reirin's brother (funny lads)With time people will come to learn the charms of Shu Keigetsu. Here's hoping this gets a S2, maybe even the whole Emperor arc too.
>>289345932I'm here for the yuribait
>>289345932Around how many episodes in do you think it'll be when Keigetsu and Reirin get buddy buddy
>>289344497One of the big reasons is the first story arcYou know the stuff he did in the lion trial? Unless they change or remove things to make him more likable, that won't be the only shitty thing he will do this seasonIt's why later volumes has the prince repeatedly regretting his actions in this arc, which is probably mirroring the author's own regrets in making the male lead so hateable in his introduction
>>289346055Depends on what you mean by that spoiler.The very start, aka the minimum, should be at around 4 episodes? But their real, open friendship should be at the end of S2 or even S3 if we're talking about when they directly confirm this to each other
>>289346111I mean when they finna smash clams
>>289346111That's good I was worried with the only 11 episode count that we wouldn't get to see any of that portion if even a smidgen
>>289346238No need to worry about that, no way they would make the whole S1 without making it all about Reirin and Keigetsu.At the very worst, after the reveal of the things behind Keigetsu's situation being the first half of S1, the second half of S1 would still be them both being friends already.
>>289344497If I am not completely mistaken an anon once said that the prince fully meant to behead Keigetsu even after he sworn to reirin to leave her unharmed and it took reirin bullying him to make him back down, compare that to the fact that Keigetsu is very popular among readers and the prince basically committed suicidal popularity from the point forward, since they saw him as scummy I think in the manga that doesn't happen though so in all likehood it won't happen in the anime either.
>>289309102Why is the MC such a Mary Sue?
>>289346387to contrast with keigetsu that is a failure in about everything
>>289346066Wasn't the author mirroring Gyoumei with the Emperor since he killed his body-swapped brother. Why would the Gyomei be mirrored with the author?>>289346387She's actually a mess and does start to fall apart, but that'll happen around winter and then some more in the port city.
>>289346439If she's such a failure, why is she the most popular? Checkmate!
>>289346763I have no counter-arguments
>>289346387She was half dead 24/7.
>>289346387That comes with being a jade beauty, you wouldn't understand.
>>289346888>you wouldnt understandyoure courting death
>>289346345Oh, it's worse than thatIn the ending of the first arc in the Light Novels, instead of just sulking at how lenient the Empress was with her punishment like in the manga, the crown prince actually "implored the Emperor to call for the extinction of the entire Shu line", which meant punishing not just Keigetsu but Leelee as well, so the prince was effectively planning to break all 3 of his promises to Reirin and then some
>>289347226Oh, you are completely right that's what the prince did, yeah no wonder the nips hate him.I swear that Nakamura never lucks out either, first it was snow white sow getting axed >>289334843 then the prince being utterly hated because he is retarded kek
>>289333899Only good males in this series are Reirin's brothers
>>289343370>Later, the novel did indeed develop in that direction.Wait really?
>>289347226Wait is the emperor alive? I thought the empress was a dowager.
>>289347308The key point is that, halfway through, he suddenly realized that the ugly duckling actually has such a charming side. He can share some love with the ugly duckling without breaking his vow to his lover... Isn't it because his lover's soul is inside the ugly duckling's body that the ugly duckling can become the black swan?
SHE SAID IT
I'm already watching 21 anime this season, but now it's 22. I can't believe this villainess slop is enjoyable.
>>289347882>22ur like a little kid (in red the dropped ones)
>>289347308I don't think it was axed? Pretty sure it covered the full novel, it was just a very short story. She doesn't tend to write a lot of ongoing serials. Even Inept Villainess was written as a one-off before Ichijinsha picked it up for print publication.I think the only thing she's ever had axed was her first novel series, Muyoku no Seijo.
>>289347861>I'm going to take her face... OFF!
>>289347882To be fair this isn't even true villainess slop. Keigetsu is a villainess for like, half of an arc, then it's just Boar mode Reirin's misadventures as she pilots Keigetsu's body.The villainess part is only there to justify other people treating Keigetsu (Reirin Pentium core inside) like shit for a while
>>289348034Huh, I always assumed it was axed, at least that is what I read from an anon in old thread about it a couple of months back, didn't know she mostly did short stories.
>>289348310But reiren does becomes a villainess lite down the line
>>289346519I actually like how much more mentally unstable she is compared to keigetsu, sometimes she'll just act on a whim and make matters worse
>>289309102real yuri or yuribait?If it doesn't at least have a girl on girl kiss it's just bait.
>>289348707Same ballpark as hibiki, take that as you will
>see my post reposted on xitter by the Noighd bot. Can someone please tell me what that bot's deal is? Also repost this pls- Tabbender is a homosexual brown.
>>289347308>snow white sowTHAT WAS THE SAME AUTHOR?YOOOOOOOOOO I FUCKING HATE THAT ONEThe main character GOT FUCKING BRANDED and EVERYONE WHO BETRAYED HER GOT FUCKING FORGIVEN SCOTT FUCKING FREEthe guy who brand her even got shipped with herI'm so fucking mad, I cannot see it as good series anymore.
>>289348464Love how the author was able to keep the title on topic by switching the formula from "Reirin needs to act like a specific villainess" to "Reirin embracing being a villainess"
>>289350264Keeeek same anon, the only consolation I had from it is that juju didn't end up marrying the guy who literally branded her flesh and exiled her, that would have soured any goodwill I have about this manga if it did, I'll miss Karen though, she was cute, and I enjoyed some of the court lady designs.
>>289351348>juju didn't end up marrying the guy who literally branded her flesh and exiled herhuh? didn't she got picked as his wife?
>>289351754the prince tries to convince Juju after her Innocence is finally proved but juju refuses since she can't see the imperial harem as her home anymore and decides to go back with rio, the kingdom's spy that was taking care of her. Also Karen goes with her because juju is her "home", precious really
>>289350917I still think she hasn't been evil enough to all the people who torment keigetsu
>>289325417>https://x.com/futsutsuka_PR/status/2076324352971382806>The bonus art with the most likes is the one that ships Reirin and KeigetsuYeah, sounds about right
If you have sex with your body swap is that gay or masturbation?
>>289351348It might've ended better if her last note was just this.
>>289309102Hey guys. Check this out, I am going to bring OP here with thisRuri Rocks is yuri!
Though we are Inept Lesbians...
>>289355922why is keigetsu in reirin's new healthy body there?
>>289356690It swaps when they pass through each other.
>>289341681At least its akujo and not akuyaku, I swear to god that term is dumb.
>>289355922>China>LGBT writing
>>289358710anon, as you know, there are no homosexuals in countries where it's banned to be one.
>>289358710Making it forbidden only makes the Chinese more interested in it.
>>289359152>>289358961The CCP literally raided a college student's apartment for writing a BL web novel.The web novel had 14 views.
>>289359396scary!there were also no christians in the roman empire, no jews in wartime germany, no pedophiles popes knew of. those things don't happen.
>>289359396Anon nobody is saying the CCP isn't serious about cracking down on Yuri and yaoi writers or that chinese fags aren't uber fucked there, but they will still keep doing it no matter how many times the CCP raids them, it's an effort in futility.
>>289359396>The web novel had 14 views.What matter is the intention
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TE4270wAeWYY'all think this will be good? I never read it but the comments say it is yuri?
>>289362385MC is a raging lesbian, and there is a lot of yuri stuff, but most of it is either used as a gag or fanservice.iirc, it doesn't have much in the way of actual romance or genuine yuri relationships, and when it does those characters tend to get brutally murdered.
>>289362825What? Chiyo is still dating Kuroko and still alive and well since volume 1. The school terrorist couple is also still going well. Same for the loli couple. None of the women Kuroko fucks ever die, she actively tries to protect them in their respective arc, as a matter of fact. There is literally an extra about the named characters who fuck Kuroko meeting up and discussing her and lesbians in general, including Chiyo, her girlfriend. How can you be wrong on every point?
>>289313889Anime won't dissapear.
>>289363015My bad. It's been so long since I actually read it that my memory must be hazy.A lot of the time it's about hunting down and butchering different psychos, so maybe the yuri side of things is more involved than I remember.
>>289362825It kinda reminded me of city hunter, but I think people actually get killedi n this one.
>>289349140Is it so hard to say if there's a girl on girl kiss or not?If there isn't, it's bait. Simple as.
>>289363181Sorry if it came out a bit harsh as not everyone is as autistic as a yuri thread poster like I am. I was just browsing the catalog searching for that thread, but your post was so baffling that I genuinely thought it was shitposting on one of my favorite series, so I had to intervene.So, yes, it's yuri. The content is yuri, the author says it is yuri, the publisher doesn't shy away from calling it yuri either.But from the PV, it's one of those "anime never existed" type of yuri adaptation, so I recommend that OP give the manga a try instead.Final note before I fuck off, why are you asking this here? Go ask the yuri bread and the anons there would give you a much more accurate answer.
>https://x.com/futsutsuka_PR/status/2076324428116627631>Bonus art with the least amount of likes is the one with the prince, even though this is a josei seriesSee, this is why they need Season 2 ASAPSeason 1 prince has the opposite of a fanbase, while Season 2 makes him more palatable and adds Reirin's brothers and Unran for even more josei fan money
>>289364271Interestingly enough Unran's b-day art is in the animes style
>>289364383Here's to hoping that it means we'll get Season 2 sooner than later
It really warms my heart when good shows like this air
Well, this was fun. For a goody-two-shoes she was surprisingly amusing, and the other girl didn't look too comically evil, so it feels like it will be a pleasant watch.God damn it, too many good shows airing this season.
>>289364383I quite like him.Because in the end, he found redemption with the female lead.
I wonder if he ever found out that the soul inside Zhu Huiyue's body was someone else.
giga yuribait
>>289365723The elder behind herdoesn't look as plump as in the original work (the chubby middle-aged woman).
Question for LNfags, is Keigetsu supposed to be ugly?
>>289365928>Question for LNfags, is Keigetsu supposed to be ugly?she's unrefined, doesn't know manners and has a resting bitch face, but I don't think someone ever called her ugly
>>289365928freckles = ugly. that's how maomao avoided getting raped
>>289365928The face reflects the heart.Her own negative emotions, inferiority, and lack of intelligenceIn the upper class of the feudal era, she was unattractive.
>>289365979Yeah that checks out thanks, I only read the manga and they never really mention her appearance there so I was wondering.
>>289341831hahahaha this made me laugh more than it should have. the typecasting with the more famous voice actors is so blatant.
>>289341831Good post.
>>289365928Beauty standards were very female oriented back then, both in the east and the west.High class arranged marriages were arranged by the matriarch based on her tastes and not the patriarch's or the son's.It's also why they bully LeeLee for having big milkers, it's unrefined and vulgar even if every man would love to bury his face in them.
>>289365928She's tall, has freckles, and is not good at what the maidens are supposed to do. She's not maiden material because she wasn't invited to the court to be a maiden. Although Reirin hides her freckles and has proper posture as Keigetsu while Keigetsu lets them show and hunches her back.
>>289367757is she some king of fire like the raven cock girl? >>289342749
>>289367795What's a king of fire.She's very good at the daoist arts. Shu Gabi choose her like how the feds choose some mental case to cause an incident.
>>289360909BL maybe they don't really care about Yuri. Just look at recent stuff like SandBina, being able to marry girls in GFL2 as female MC or all the yuri pandering in NTE.
>>289366885>they bully LeeLee for having big milkers????
>>289365849The intro shows the Kin consort in her younger yearsThe actual episode briefly shows her present appearance, and she's as plump as the LN and manga versions
>>289368562The sash hides them and she's still developing.
>>289365928She wasn't even taught how to properly put make up, or any "maidenly" thing really, so this also considerably lowers her value in the eyes of others (her personality boosted by her strong Shu blood doesn't help it either)
>>289368800You telling me she gets canonically bigger as the story goes on? I'm sure you have some proof for this statement! Illustrations are the best proof btw. Copious amounts of illustrations!
>>289368562
>>289368882Not seeing any boobs here.
>>289368913She's still growing.
>>289368800She has foreign ancestry; her mother was a foreigner who came to this country and became a concubine of her official father.Because she is mixed-race, she is discriminated against by others (labeled as having the blood of a prostitute). A palace maid working in the same palace publicly mocked her figure, saying it was like honey that would attract men.
>>289368953I don't know man, the manga seems to be pretty inconsistent. Keigetsu seems pretty huge here too.
>>289368913>>289368998she's like 14 or something and the court bitches ladies are already saying how she has the body of a vulgar harlotart aside, it's canon that she has the genes for a nice body
>>289368998Yes. But LeeLee's are canonically big.
>>289347794It's pretty clear that the original story was meant to go a bit differently. The prince was supposed to be a side character and Reirin(in keigetsu's body) would end up with the eagle captain as the lowest rank consort.But then the series was massively lenghtened and, well, serialised so the author just started shipping Reirin with everyone.
>>289370044What's the source to this? It's not pretty clear that it was supposed to happen that way.
>>289309102>>289236019i missed the prev thread . just noticed Ep 1 is out. i cant belive it is not otome isekai game!
>>289352640Please forgive her anon, though she is an inept villainess, she's trying her best
>>289368562JoseiCan't draw them too big without putting off the primary audience
>>289368882>mom wasn't a harlot, she was an exotic dancer!Oh, sweetie...
>>289365849It was like they were looking at walking garbage...
>>289347577Easy mistake to make since the Emperor's mostly referred to and rarely shown in the first two story arcsWe do get a quick look at him at the start of Episode 1 when everyone's names were being shown
>>289367757>Reirin hides her frecklesDropped this garbage.
>>289373950She only hid it once in her first appearance to the public as Keigetsu She displays them proudly every other time she's in Keigetsu's body
>>289374714The harvest festival still counts as Keigetsu(Keigetsu)'s make up since it was an emergency. I don't think an event that would prove Keigetsu(Reirin) would conceal them, given if she had the time and make up, has happened yet.
>>289375326She never bothered concealing them outside of the Ghost Festival.
>>289376112I meant in regards to festivals specifically. We really only have the ghost festival to go by and it might take until the congree handout festival to confirm it. Reirin(Reirin) always wears make up to hide her illness, but I don't know if Keigetsu(Reirin) would bother with it. Keigetsu(Keigetsu) is called flashy/gaudy while Keigetsu(Reirin) probably wouldn't do what she does during festivals and cover them up.
>>289375326>>289376453There is one event when Reirin would have had the time and make up while in Keigetsu's body: The finale of the Rite of ReverenceThe narration describes her as "Shu Keigetsu, with her striking freckles", so even given the chance, she now prefers to show off the freckles of her best friend, her very best friend!
>>289377137Fair enough. I got it wrong. Keigetsu(Reirin)'s freckles being visually concealed in the manga was more prominent than the novel's words in my memories.
I remember when I read the available manga, the first arc was amazing but I really disliked Reirin's brothers or whatever in the second arc.
>>289341596>>289344896>native villainess
>>289378249>I really disliked Reirin's brothers or whatever in the second arcWhy? They're funny and tesde keigetsu
>>289379725Ehh... the first volume of the LN is very "villainess-coded" but the rest of the story really isn't.It's basically catcat crossed with swap <–> swap.
