This is Hattusa, the capital of the Hittite Empire in the 14th century BC. This is the story of a girl who rides the sultry winds across the vast stretches of Anatolia.
Why does every shoujo this season have an absolute retard mc?
Hattian anime when
>>289714895Is it a /his/fag show or one that is just a setting for the romance drama?
>>289715299Mostly the latter
>>289715299It's a typical shoujo fantasy story, but the setting is unusual and interesting if you're into ancient history.
Those are gifts fit for royalty and it's still not enough for her.
Neshliggers?
Did nobody in the thousands of years of antiquity figured out to sit on a horse?
>>289714895THIS IS THE STORY OF A GIRLWHO CRIED A RED RIVER AND DROWNED THE WHOLE WORLD
>already lusting for prince cock
sex with generic twiggy shoujo heroine
>>289716679Prince Kail...
>>289716679And otome mcs
This episode was fun, we're finally done with token "isekai" establishments and justifications to stay etc, and now can actually get on with the story.
>>289717061>is that prince undressing?
>Fighting on horseback? This changes everything!
>>289717383Is this before or after Kadesh?
>>289717383What fools, they are blind to the sheer POWER of horse archers! Jokes aside, wouldn’t making use of horses like traditional cavalry at this point in time have a MASSIVE impact on history?, like giving muskets to 14th century Euros massive?
>>289717592If you're so retarded you can't think of sitting on a horse, you deserve to be conquered.
>>289717691Apparently nobody had considered sitting their ass on a horse and sticking people with a point metal stick until like 1000~ BC. I guess everyone was pants on head retarded until then?
>>289714935>why are women retarded?
>>289718033the average shoujo mc has at least the bare minimum of brain power, same can't be said about this or hanayome
>teehee I did an oopsie again
>>289715461Keep the horse, but I'll take the sword for sure.
>>289717691>>289715732Horses were smaller and riding a horse without all the accouterments like a proper saddle, bridle, etc., sucks if your goal is to fight. And then you have to train that horse to actually handle combat and not just fuck off immediately when someone screams at it while waving a spear around. Chariots are just way easier to start with.
>>289715461God what a retard. Why are the MCs in these stories always clueless retards? Why can’t a fuckin carpenter, or a doctor get isekai’d?
>>289717972Its difficult when horses have minds of their own and, without saddles, are easier to direct via chariotsPlus there's the logistics of training horses, breeding them, and supplying them into battle. You think racehorses are the only horses that suddenly snap their ankle after 100m charge?
>>289718382no pantsu
>>289718408Did the Hittites even have proper underwear?
>>289718306>doctor get isekai’dThat exists but of course the truly well written stories don't get adapted.
>>289718408In the manga she wears a sexy tunic, in the anime she wears a potato sack.
>>289716679she's literally just skin and bones
>>289716949it was fun bad. watching her fumble into victory was hilarious. also the rapey prince is based.
>>289718478
They zoomed in on this panel so you couldn't even see Yuri actually being useful for once.
>>289718306>or a doctor gets isekai'dThat storytime is on volume 19 right now
>>289718608Was a kino panel in the manga too.
>>289718441Name and how good is it? Is it like Youjo Senki good? My interest has been piqued.
>>289718636why are the botching the anime?
>>289718636The manga is very sexo, the anime has none of that unfortunately. I wonder why, it airs so late, you'd think they'll lean into sex and violence more to stand out. Instead they censor everything like they target middleschoolers with this.
>>289718708are there ANY middle schoolers who even give a fuck about the bronze age?
>>289718609Dropped this one because everything seemed too convenient for the protagonists.
shes so bratty
>>289718900needs royal correction
>>289718797That's what I'm saying. The source material is oriented on history buff fujos, and they try to make some squeaky clean PG13 bullshit out of it.
>>289719197YumejosFujos are into gay men. Yumejoshi are into straight men and their self-inserts.
>>289719727Fujos headcanon straight men into gay ones
It's interesting that the opening song is actually bespoke made for the series. You don't see that too often nowadays.
mega slut
>>289720385The period accurate term is fertility goddess.
>>289720521>fertility>with those hips
>>289720603That is the divine part. Any wide hipped woman can pump out a few dozen demigods. Imagine doing it as a 90s era Japanese waif. You need that godly energy.
For some reason the best depiction of warfare are always in shoujo
>>289718382Probably this is an horse from the future that know how to be mounted
>>289720724Chicks aren't interested in making overly complex or cool.
>>289720780she weights less than her clothes, the horse felt nothing
This is such a mid adaptation, should have just left such a classic shoujo manga as is instead of giving it to this loooooooooooong past their prime studio to ruin.
>>289721051The manga is like 30 years old. This is pretty much the only way anyone that is younger than 40 or a real fan of shojo manga is going to find out about it. It ain't perfect, but getting at least a few hundred more fans for the manga is a good thing all by itself.
>>289714895Is EVERYONE in this show retarded?The sisters are retarded. The guy who you think sent a messenger is telling you he didn't. The prince is retarded: why the fuck would you think the queen would have Yuri killed, when they specifically need her alive, and you know this.Yuri is retarded: So many reasons.
>>289721251All the smart people are in Egypt or Sumeria.
>>289721397But, bro.... how can you not figure out how to sit on a horse?
>>289721051But enough about GitS.
>>289721459That is actually accurate. It took like thousands of years to go from domesticating horses to eat, pull chariots and carts, and other stuff, to actually riding them in war. First they had to get big enough. Then you had to invent all the stuff to ride them well. Then you had to train them to actually handle war. And then you had to practice to actually fight on a horse and not just flail around like a dumbass.
What are they at war for again?
Why does she look like Keiko?
Shouldn't have been the horsie the one getting the praises instead of Yuri?
>>289721741War doesn't need a reason, it just needs an opportunity.
>>289721741these are just shitty marauding tribes
>>289721251nigga this is 3500 years ago
o, my anatolian shoujowhen the battle is lost,invent fighting on horse back
I love messy chin length black hair so much
>>289714935In this one's defense, it did come out just before Inuyasha, so the main girl have a case of dumb bitch syndrome wasn't a worn out trope at the time.
>>289718306You see, anon, this is a fairly old isekai from back when sending a regular girl back into some historic or ahistoric setting was just the way they did it.See also 12 Kingdoms and Inuyasha.
>>289724567i'd give her my white water if you know what i mean
>>289714935She is just a girl
>>289727870Perfect girl. She probably weighs 95lbs.
>>289718306That's what Dr. Stone is.
>>289718699Not that anon but I reckon he or she's referring to Jin
>>289714895Damn, Red River is this season too? I'm tempted to backlog it but I feel like if I do I'll never watch it. How's the quality?
>>289728561Read the manga the anime has abysmal art
>>289728664What redeeming qualities does the anime have?
>>289728760The opening I guess
>>289725105>12 KingdomsWhy can't they finish the stupid story!? New book when!?
>>289716463Tito died for this
>>289714935Name 5 anime with non-retard MCs.
>>289728760The music is great.Can have comfy threads.
>>289715299it's a /his/fag manga, idk how well the anime adapted that part thoughYuri inventing cavalry this week, while cool, is entirely anachronistic
>>289721251Don't worry about that. It's only getting worse from here. Trust me, I know since I've actually read the entire manga from start to finish and it's by far the worst manga I've ever read. It was a truly gruelling journey to get through the 28 volumes this manga has. The fact that some of the chapters were 120 pages long made it even worse. If the chapters were good then I would be fine with it, but since they were actually bad they were a pain to read through.There are some things I can say however: The Egyptians and more specifically Ramses win in the end. The Egypt arc is by far the best one, because that one is actually half decent, not good but not awful like the rest of the manga. Rusafa is by far the best character in the series and the only one I actually really liked. Kail is a scumbag and a fraud and I genuinely dislike that guy. That is all I have to say.
>>289730001Y at sounds like the typical Shoujo/Josei masterpiece. Really sad the Anime is not doing it justice
>>289730001First of all, use spoilers nigger.Secondly, why does this already has a schizo, lol.
sex with thin shoujos
>>289720780The horse also randomly had a saddle-like thing in some shots
>>289714895I need this! YESSSSSSS!
>>289731504I know why. That's a 3D model and they had it from somewhere else, and they couldn't just remove the saddle from the model.
>>289714895When was this written keklol. Author doesn't care for the history, it's just a setting, but holy shit, twig girl holds off prince long enough to poison MC. Is this just a counterpart to chink imperial palace shoujos, with a slight hint of action? She'll be all over princes dick soon, fuck that guy back in the present.
>>289728554Jin is TOO magical, he's somehow a specialist in every surgical field. He also gets bailed out of 'welcome to feudal japan, we're going to just torture you or let you die cause, you're a commoner' far too often.
>>289717592>>289717691When does this happen again, this is like 1500BC, chariots are still king, but I was sure that the horse lords of the steppe NE of anatolia are already riding horsed by this point? They have bridles as is for steering via chariot, so you just need to fashion some harness for seating, and well, get good (and get compliant temperament of the horse) at sitting on them?
>>289721741It was summer and the crops had been sown. Local lord/king wanted to have more land to tax.
>>289730001Damn Innit why you didn't like Kail he's your type of character.
>>289732246In the bronze age they used chariots without dismounting for the actual combat. Then later in the iron age, they started using chariots as "battle taxis" to deliver warriors on the battlefield for hand-to-hand combat. So the usage of horses/chariots has actually declined, and using just the horses would seem extremely weird and strange, and likely dishonorable.
Yuri is so ugly in the anime, in the manga she's exotic asian sexo
>>289732682that ass is tiny
>>289714895I remember reading this manga in high school I am now in my 30’s, it’s pretty gud. Lacks the usual pedo age gap/grooming, or incest slop shoujo and anime in general tends to have, the MC evolves into an actual STRONG female character without being a Mary-Sue with development that feels earned, nice historical setting, politics that go surprisingly deep. Am honestly surprised it took this long for it to get an anime, I always thought Red River was considered an old-school classic?
>>289732710She's 15 year old japanese girl.
>>289732867This year had a lot of manga from 20 years ago and older getting an anime>Liar Game>Tetsunabe no Jan>Ghost in the Shell>Hokuto no Ken>This
Kail sees perfection, petite and toned Asian body perfect to be Ishtar and future queen
>>289732982feeta
>>289732988>FeetfagNai desu wa
>>289732515If I'm remembering the story correctly there's a plot point later on where they use iron to reinforce their chariot axels to allow them to carry 3 men, which was a pretty big deal at the time since you now have a driver and 2 fighting men.>>289732682Funnily enough, there's a part later where they find a hotter looking woman to pretend to be her and no one believes that she's actually her in this one area until the prince shows up and sorts it all out while she's carrying for some sick people no ine else wanted to touch.
>>289733287Does Yuri invent iron in the bronze age?
>>289733308No, but she does recognize a slightly rusty iron blade in a pile and that convinces a clan of metalworkers who can work iron that she understands the value of their work. It does have one of those anime bullshit moments where an iron blade breaks a bronze one, but past that it's pretty tame as far as anime asspulls go.
>>289716463Himuro bros...
