Luca won
This is gonna end in friendship > love no one wins
>>290095383Lisa's disguise is so good. Lara won't see it coming.
>>290095622I mean, yeah, it could suck, but I don't want that.
>>290095700Lisa = Luca lost
>>290095622I mean we already at half way now.
>>290095622>This is gonna end in friendship > love no one winsDuh, it's the safest ending, platonic friendship love stronger than romantic love, so obviously they gonna do it.Disappointing but I don't expect anything else, there's too little time to properly develop feelings between Lara and Luca than it being cheap hand me down, and it's clear for me they will never go for romantic angle with Lara and Mari either.Coward ending.
This scene makes me think that Lara has to go meet Luca alone because Mari has to go to her boxing practice. Then Mari won't be able to concentrate properly because she is worried and waiting for Lara to text her an update on how things are going.
This is prince Nikolai. Please, say something nice to him.
>>290095383>>290096317Woah, I can see the resemblance.
Some new interview dropped>—Personally, I found the scene where they take shelter from the rain and drink cocoa especially memorable.>Koide: That scene actually comes directly from something I experienced myself. While we were location scouting, it suddenly started raining, so I went into a rest area, bought some cocoa from a vending machine, and drank it there. The moment I felt that sense of relief, I thought, “Ah, I should turn this into a scene.”>It’s a scene where we deliberately use time in a very slow and almost luxurious way. Precisely because we live in an era where “time performance” — getting the most value out of your time — is emphasized so heavily, I hope viewers will take their time and watch it slowly.>Lara as someone lovable precisely because she has weaknesses>—In Episode 3, Lara and Mari become closer, but there is also a certain frustration in how their relationship still doesn’t fully deepen.>Koide: In a more conventional anime, they might firmly establish their bond in Episode 3 and then go, “All right, now we’re ready for Episode 4!” But these two stop just one step short of that.>I think that slow, simmering sense of tension in their relationship is part of what makes Episode 3 appealing.>Also, the boxing scene was drawn almost entirely by a single animator, Hidehiko Sawada. Rather than disguising things through camera angles or still frames, he used a very large number of drawings to portray it in a raw and visceral way, so I think it became a scene that’s really worth watching.>Episode 3 contains a lot of different elements, but thanks to the efforts of episode director Ayaka Tsuji, I think it became an episode with an exceptionally rich range of expression.He knows exacly what he is doing
>>290096437>—Lastly, could you tell us what to expect from Episode 4 onward?>Koide: I think this is fundamentally an anime that keeps following Lara throughout her journey. Lara is an extremely incomplete person, and she has a lot of weaknesses. But I didn’t want to make her into a character with no flaws, someone who only has lovable qualities.>I’d be happy if viewers could gently watch over Lara and see how she chooses to live from here on.>I also think part of the appeal of this series is that you never really know what’s going to happen next, so I hope everyone enjoys it all the way to the end.
>>290096437>>290096467There's something about Koide that just makes me roll my eyes any time I read his interviews.
>>290096437Please, don't tell me he is gonna tease their relationship like that until near the end. I understand he wants a slow burn love, but come on...
>>290096578He directed the Revue of Souls in the Revue Starlight movie, he has to be the most pretentious asshole ever to make kino of that astronomical level.
>>290096317cute and feminine
>>290095383rape
>>290096317>clear masquerade in background>prince not wearing maskBecause he is clearly a mermaid so his prince look is the mask BRAVO NOLAN
>>290096702I don't mind this if it does end up being concrete. I really don't want just pure, unfiltered yuribait.
>>290098176It pretty obvious that they will end up together anon
I decided to pre order the blu raysIt'll be the first time I've actually bought JP blu rays so I'll be gambling on having no eng subs.
>>290095383This vid speaks volumes about Larafags around the world and all the bastards that brought this worthless shit anime to life
>>290095622And yurifags will claim victory. They always do with friendship endings. They even create the term "no romance yuri"
