Hetfag humiliation ritual.
I can't hate hetfags. They just picked the wrong side this time. I feel sorry for them.
>>290568540You've made the thread too soon retard
>>290568540Read the catalogue>>290552445
I love the parallels
>>290568540You've made the thread right on time king
yurischizos MALDING
>>290568935>>290568988fuck off schizo
>>290569059>Hetfags when one show goes yuri
>>290569059Absolutely. They're even having a meltdown on /u/, or so I keep hearing or whatever. Someone keeps saying it, so it must be true.
>>290569180>>290569216lol seethe yigger
>>290569216I'm posting in both the /a/ threads and the /u/ threads and the few posts there have been on /u/ are saying how obvious the yuri end is now.
>>290569180You don't understand, anon. Every season comes with at least 60 new series. I need at least 100% of them to have straight, or else we risk it all
>>290569384There's never any meltdown in /u/, except when someone from here comes to try and provoke one.
>>290569595That's not surprising. What's surprising is that the /u/ thread has fewer lewds than /a/'s.
>>290569431So glad that Ruri Rocks, Kore Kaite, and Ibitte aren't like these generic unoriginal boringass shits
Why did they take this series away from us, hetbros...? It was our turn.
>>290568540>>290568587>>290569016did they need to shit on Luca so hard?
>>290569676Are there even that many lewds for this series?
>>290569715No. This is a pure love show. Might have more lewds after the MariLara kiss tho.
Very little evidence to suggest Luca has completely lost.
>>290569758>littleReal subtle anon
>>290569758>Here's how Luca can still win:
>>290569781kek
>>290568540Futa is always bigger
>>290568540Haven't watched the episode but what happened?
Posting on /a/ should require an IQ test.
Alright you fucking tards quit squabbling like children and lets talk about the real debate here:Is Lara's mom controlling the fish thing because she went mad?
>>290569758>very littleYep, that's Luca. >>290568540
Why is Grace molting?
Looking forward to using this show as material when the friendship ending comes
>>290569801bigger than Luca's...
>>290569802SPH happened
>>290569802Yurifag are getting nervous because all the romantic build up is with Luca
>>290569802Shiga taxpayers are fuming right now.
Why is Grace so tired?
Source tells me Lucafags are stable, please god.
>>290569802Hetfags lost. Again.
>>290569876You'd be too if you had to listen to Lara talking about true love all day, every day.
>>290569802Lara almost raped Luca. He told her to stop it, she got mad, and Luca almost died. Now Lara has been kidnapped by Lisa, and Grace is slowly dying
So... do the people of Shiga not care that the Fishe of Damocles is destroying all the bridges in or around Lake Biwa?
hetfags on suicide watch
>>290569876She's cast a spell on herself to save energy I assume which resulted in her turning into this tiny fish. She is running out of time.
>sayonara mariROLL CREDITS
>>290569802People are shaking at the imminent friendship ending
>>290568540DONT MAKE FUN OF LUCA'S ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION
>>290569984>imminent friendship endingisn't that what the show was going for from the beginning
So Lisa and the King are the villains it seems? Thematically it makes sense. They are pushing normative values: she should remain a mermaid, remain in a cozy coffin of the sea forever, not explore the surface world and mate with a human.But since this is a yuri show which is not societally preferred normative values are the evil oppressor.
It will be a christian love ending
soon
>>290569984t-this w-w-was e-eas-ily the w-worst an-ime I-I-I... I've s-seen in d-dec-decades!
Would everything be resolved if someone told Lara that gays exist, or would she think that's too gay
>>290569707Yes. Luca sucks.
>>290570014Unda da sea, they'll be no more tribulations, only friendly crustaceans, under the sea!
>the aquarium statuary was grace's buddy all alongpervert...
>>290569916>its like she was looking at garbagedid luca deserve this...
>>290568540Serious question, why do hetfags even bother coming here any longer? Why not watch You and I are Polar Opposites or some slop like that instead? It's not like the whole season lineup is yuri (although the best shows are, though luck)
>>290569936buhaoyise waiguoren,she said さらばだ
lmao
Why do Yurifags act like this won't end with friendship and not kissing
>himeka with a boyNOOOOOOOOOOO
>>290570012
>>290570173Why did you capitalize yurifags THOUGH?
>doesnt kiss laraWhat is Luca's problem?
>>290570225he already has me
>mari is a great singerMERMAID MOGGED
>>290570225She gave him the ick with her fishy smell.
>>290570012some kinda agápē because someone on the planning committee came across the word ἀγάπη in some coffee table book and became obsessed with it
>>290570251why the FUCK would a mermaid suck at singing??
>>290570248Yoshiya...
>>290570225>luca complaining about lara taking things too fast>when he's the one constantly texting her about everything and who mopes when things don't go his wayhe's a bitch
>>290570270Lara sucks at being a mermaid.
>>290570014Lara is not that attractive desu, totally mogged by Grace and Mari
I can't believe Lara subconsciously wanted to murder Luca...
Is Lisa taking Lara with her to Yoshinoya to purchase their Original Beef Combo?
Feeling a bit bad for the yumes right now.
I'm going to guess Mari is already aware of her own feelings for Lara but her love is so selfless she (mistakenly) thought the best course of action was to stay on the sidelines and support Lara and Luca. Lara on the other hand still hasn't figured herself out but she at least wanted Mari to tell her not to confess to Luca.
Why is Japanese culture strange about confessing? They were already clearly dating yet everyone was acting like it was uncertain if they were.
>>290568746You should hate hetfags for shitting up these threads relentlessly. Hopefully they'll give up now.
>>290570339Not the first time Mari's been shown to do things she doesn't want to because she believes it's in Lara's best interests.
>>290570408They were just going out as friends, they never did anything that would constitute being a couple.
>>290570408A boy and girl can spend time together without it being a date.
>>290568540>>290570137Why do yurikeks always hop on non-yuri shows?
She need to face her feeling and say it clearly
>>290570408Usual order is confess > date, not the other way around. They're weirdly strict about it, at least in fiction.
>>290570436Her constantly looking away while "supporting" Lara when her entire motto is "if you look away, you lose" is way too blatant.
>>290569801I Mari getting her back massaged?
>>290570466This is a yuri show, retard. The director said so himself.
>>290570474>>290570478They say everything outright and people still pretend not to get it.
>>290570438>>290570449Luca showing his not-super-creepy painting of Lara to her and saying she is beautiful sure was just as friends, right>>290570475In the US, Luca's first message to her to meet him somewhere, just the 2 of them, instantly implies date.
>>290569916God, Lisa is beautiful>>290570014Missing the dick tower
>>290570588Media literacy on /a/ approaches 0
>>290570408JP live action stuff has had "the tense ambiguity of being together and not yet saying 'we're dating'" for a bit now as a reflection of what's trendy (as a topic) among young people,maybe because they had already been watching such stuff for years from Western stuff on NETTOFURI
>>290570474Say something Mari
>>290569802Luca was being an herbivore when he should eat the fishe.
Why did she have a meltdown over this simple question? It's clear "true love" is fairytale bullshit
>>290570670She's a fairytale princess so it's her bullshit.
>>290570580>yuri show>main couple is straightRetard. Being a yurikek is a 24/7 humiliation ritual because you subhumans refuse to watch actual yuri shows
>>290570657I think Lara also realises that she may be in love with Mari too
>>290570670She's still a female anon
>>290570670She is literally inspired by a fairy tale, The Little Mermaid
>>290570712Still in denial after ep9? How?
hetfags please stop coming here and go back to your Mushoku incelpedo threads
>>290570474Mari loves Luca confirmed!
>>290570714>>290570776>twitter screencaps>incelpedoThe absolute state
Soon
>>290570828It's Gridman all over againYuricucks will NEVER learn. They like being raped
>>290570829A kiss from Mari will fix her.
>>290570670Also, contrary to OP's image, Luca triggers the absolute biggest light we've seen so far
It's going to be awkward for him when he tries explaining what went down before Lara was kidnapped.
>>290569802Luca wanted to take things nice and slow but Lara is genuinely desperate for human cock.
>>290570884It may be when Mari realizes she made a mistake letting Lara do that when she was clearly forcing herself.
>>290570880I hold off on watching until I can see if with my brother, but it is really funny seeing all these "media literate" posts being completely out of context screenshots.
Let's be real here, yurifags have shown the biggest engagement with the show and have made most of the fanart, they legit deserve to win this
>>290570714>westoid twitter random headcanon screencapKEKAROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
After this episode, I'm sure it'll be a friendship ending. It's too late for a new love to born so Lara learns to love the surface just like the past special princesses love the ocean and all its creatures
>>290570828>>290570871the absolute state of forever alone virgin incel pedo chuds who'll probably kill themselves in their 30s
>>290570670Lara is a fairy tale character anon.
>>290570965Facts don't care about your feelingsShe likes human COCK>>29057098041% of yuricucks are the ones offing themselves before reaching 30yo though
>>290570965Yurifags are useful fools. That's why nobody respect them
>>290570880The Third Impact is only caused by Luca in the sense that Lara is having an extreme negative reaction to his words and actions.
>>290570965Fujos were the biggest consumers of JJK and no one was gay there
>>290571050Cope
Seems like our local schizophrenic is not very happy about today's episode.
>>290571062everybody was gay in jjk except that one token chick I guess lol
>>290571108I'm sure you can find better ways to spend the last month of this anime season.
All of you need to do 2 things:1) Touch grass2) Have sexOk?
>>290571011>thinking all yuri fans are troonsthe absolute state of incel chud, stop playing those self-insert gacha and touch grass, you will never be the MC.
>>290571156??
>>290570714the absolute state of this thread and this fandom. and then other harmless posts get deleted for some reason
>>290570714go back retard
It'll be Frozen all over again. Nips love Frozen
>>290570880Why yes. To unconsciously power the blade with hate. She believed it was her last hope to staying alive and saving her family and he ruined it. It's not like she was going to turn to foam even if he flat out rejected her from the start. Though she didn't know that.
>>290571237Frozen doesn't have a powerful female villain like Grace, anon.
>>290570580Only implied it to the western audience. It's obvious they're going for a friendship ending for not offending anyone. Nips can take it as friendship while westerners can taker it as a LGBT ending
>>290571197>fandomI hate that word.
yeah bro The Little Mermaid anime will make the girl a lesbian because i saw some twitter faggot (western btw) saying the girls are lesbians
Kota is the only character who actually does stuff that moves the plot. Everyone else just sort of stands around waiting for Lara to do something.
>>290571277Is Grace a villain? Sure, she gave the potion to Lara but Lisa is the one opposing to Lara's goals
>>290571237I unironically wish frozen was 2d
Luca turned down a fishe wife, so now he's getting the fishe knife.
>>290571346I unironically wish they adapted The Snow Queen instead. At least the soviet animated movie is kino
>>290571311It's a sequel anime not an adaptation, and the mermaid in the Little Mermaid does not even end up with the prince.
>>290571311That's like saying that the Monte Cristo anime will be a sci-fi haha. No way that would happen, right?
>>290571357>the prince is shortergod damn that's so hot
>>290571346Not worth it unless they go full incest.
>>290571361Ain't no one want a wife that smells of fishe.
>>290571311Lisa is married to a gender ambiguous fish and Luca' "sister" is a otokonoko for no reason.
>>290571357Cute and canon
>>290571363Sayonara Lara has a budget. That mean they have to answer to the sponsors.
>>290571415>Luca' "sister" is a otokonoko for no reason.That's like saying that you are a faggot for "no reason". Some people are just born that way, accept it.
>just non-stop fucking yuri on Sundaywhy
>>290571421Canon best friends
>>290571314I wonder why his mouth is stitched. It didn't really look that bad in the flashback, just wide.
>>290571443>That's like saying that you are a faggot for "no reason". Some people are just born that wayThat's right, and Lara and Mari are lesbians. Do you agree now?
>>290571448Not yuri according to the staff and precure stopped being targeted to little girls and now they focus only on neets. Even 2ch is complaining
>>290570880"True love" = living freely. That's what Grace's "you're born twice" is about. Grace's sister probably sacrificed herself to power the kingdom, Grace doesn't want that for Lara
>>290571490Lara liked the prince and Luca so she isn't a lesbian. Maybe bi but not a lesbian
>>290571432>Sayonara Lara has a budget.How big is the budget anyways?
>>290571517Lara's "like" of Luca is friendship.Lara's "like" of Mari is romantic love.
>>all yuri fans are troonsTRUE
>>290571523bout tree fiddy
>>290571530Have you seen this in twitter or something?
>>290571494Actually that make sense and it doesn't need to end with Lara and Mari scissoring so it doesn't piss off the sponsors. Probably that's the real ending
Do I count as bi if I like both cute girls and ugly girls?
>>290571357This will happen
While there’s probably plenty of details missing my predication would be something like: > Episode 10: Grace backstory episode with a few things happening in the present (Lisa and Kota reuniting, Mari and Luca starting a plan to rescue Lara)> Episode 11: Full rescue plan in action, maybe some more interaction between Lara and her family and Grace. Mari realizes her feelings during the rescue mission with help from Luca> Episode 12: Lara finally realizes her feelings, but perhaps can’t stop whatever’s going to happen. Grace steps in to help and sacrifices herself in the process. Lara has saved her family but has to give up on being a mermaid to be with Mari. Says “Goodbye” to her family and old life. The end.
>>290570714>twitter screencaps>>290570776>>290570980>muh incel pedo>>290571290>muh LGBT
>>all yuri fans are troonsThis is said worldwide
>>290568587I was so sure this was going too be a character song shill moment. I was slightly diappointed.
>>290571523We're in le current year. A director doing what he wants isn't possible now unless it's a big name
>>290571448I wish this series aired on Saturday so I had more time to talk about it before going back to work.
He's going overdrive, huh.
>>290571494>>290571545Living freely is almost definitely what it is but it’s kinda annoying with all the ham fisted visual references to Mari and her relationship with Lara throughout the entire series.They’re probably gonna have it be an open ending relationships wise so people can fight over who Lara would get with romantically for all of eternity
>>290571598As expected, even shifted to "it will be a friendship ending".
>>290571530Lara loved the prince
>>290571432>hey have to answer to the sponsors.No they don't, lmao. Have you not seen Made in Abyss? Is this really your cope?
>>290571588Creative freedom is when you make the same story again and again, Miyazaki-sama? Your little mermaid adaptation was probably one of the worst movie your studio has ever made.
I like this shot
>Read japanese thread>No one thinks it's yuri, they're just discussing how her relationship with Luca will continue in the last episodeWhy
>>290571614The director teased yuri in the west but not in Japan. That mean ambiguous ending at best
>>290569823Whatever happened to Lara's mom probably had to do with why Grace was banished.
>>290571634You're just mad because Miyazaki insulted your seasonal slop
>>290571588That still doesn't answer my question regarding the budget
>>290571656Because only westoids feel the need to turn everything gay
>>290571656The japs on twitter are saying that Luca lost
>>290571565I feel like Grace will indeed have a grand sacrifice moment and everyone will think she is dead. But then Mari will once again find her, half dead, permanently in the goldfish form and bring her back home.
>>290571658>still believing a fake translation
>>290571656Because the director only mentioned yuri in an interview exclusive for the west. Also there's a big chance most anons on that Japanese thread are women
I dont know how many true yurifags are here but i have to ask all of you sincerely, do you guys enjoy this "will they wont they" bullshit? Like they do get together in the end, do you think all that happened to get there not only was worth it, but it was good and what made it good at the end?Personally i just like my romance to be minimal conflict sol-like comfy shit, just relax and see two people in love together like the modern romance "slop", i hate misunderstandings, drama, love rivals, constant couple fighting, etc...You can argue it makes it a less "interesting" and "exciting" story overall but i dont care.
>>290570014Calling Disney's lawyers right now!
>>290571680I only watch long running kino that last 50+ episodes(with a few exceptions) so not seasonal but if you really think ponyo is good then you are low iq.
>>290571658I mean this could go both ways in that they didn’t want to tell the Japanese audience that it would end in yuri but didn’t care about it when telling western audiences
>>290571622But yurifags consider friendship to be yuri anyway
>>290571700Japanese twitterfags are hardcore otaku
>>290571656Unfortunately this has become a deluded echo chamber
>>all yuri fans are troonsMost people are saying this
Anon trying to become the second coming of Nostradumbass from the final G-Witch threads.
>>290571237Frozen was slop but not just because the ending.
>>290571742Gay marriage is legal in the west but not in Japan and most otakus are chuds.
>>290571656west discussions are way more political when it comes to art + nips are cucked and have already half accepted the the possibility of yuribait (remember you can't complain too much
>>290571715Well that’s generally how it works with a drama yes. People like to see the characters undergo struggles and then emerge in the other side victorious. If people wanna see that happen with a relationship between two women then so be it
>The little mermaid princess requires a soul sacrifice to avoid turning into foam herself, while also being able to save her family and rebuild her nation. >The human girl who has always quietly loved the little mermaid princess cannot bear to witness the important person in her life vanish into bubbles, so she takes the initiative to throw herself into the sea to find the little mermaid princess. Even facing the bloody maw of a terrifying giant fish, she reveals a smile and willingly offers up her soul. >At this critical moment, the little mermaid princess finally realizes that true love is the girl.I think that is what's gonna happen
>local mermaid tries to rape upstanding young man
>>290571765I know but nips fucking love Frozen. Especially nip women. It outsell precure in Japan
>caring about 2chThat site is deader than 4chan
>>290571715The yurifags in this thread are not real yurifags, they consume non-yuri shows pretending they are yuri like Super Cub and this while seething about real yuri shows like Gushing over Magical Girls because they are twitter ironic weebs who hate fanservice
I want this to end in a polycule with Lara and the entire island.
>>290571656yuricucks are literally mentally ill. i'm surprised they can even breath
>>290571781This show truly has the potential to go down as perhaps the pinnacle of yuri bait, or at least the modern exemplar of it for years to come
>>290571777>>290571781you have to go back
>>290571777>Gay marriage is legal in the westDisgusting.
>>290571715Assuming this show doesn't pull any cowardly bullshit and pays off all the textual, subtextual and visual setup it has done so far up to and including Lara and Mari sharing a kiss then yeah, I'll consider it great. Nothing that's happened has been forced or pointless and the visual direction especially is very strong in how it always hints at the characters' true feelings.
>>290571781Japan is the land of comformism so when a fandom get a negative result, they just move on. For example see Narusakus in Japan and compare them to Narusakus in the west. Reminder that Narusaku was the second most popular het ship in Japan. Sometimes there are anomalies though like Guesule fangirls. They continue pushing their OTP long after the anime ended and even derailed the official twitter account
What happened at the end? Did Lara find true love? All the stuff that was said to happen when she find true love has happened (magical light encompasses everything, her family wakes up)
>>290571843Is it really yuri baiting or have people just deluded themselves into thinking it is and the creators have another intention?
>>290571777Exactly. It’s the same thing with Cosmic Princess Kaguya or GWitch where even people involved in the media in the western sphere will state the yuri angle but the Japanese never will
>>290571588how deep is Miyazaki's mental torment?
>>290571872your twitter headcanon is not real
>>290571764I forgot some of the "signs" of Suletta dying at the end but I wish I remembered them now, it's not often you come across someone who's not just shitposting but utterly convinced of his lunacy.
>>290571811And one of the demon slayers movies made more money than any japanese movie ever made, yet I don't see this show having sword fights. Idk if that will matter
>>290571715I like the show in general and would like it if it was completely straight. The issue is that this series from the beginning has not been set up that way and is never would have made sense for it to end straight. Though I feel that way about a lot of yuri bait series. But they're pushing the relationship with Mari so much that it not being how it ends would be betraying what was set up the rest of the series. I will still like the series as long as the ending isn't a complete clusterfuck even if it's not yuri but I will still feel like many of the choices they made for the series were pointless if it doesn't end in yuri. I don't really mind much of what has happened in the series but red herrings in romance series do get tiresome after a while. This series is more than a romance series though so I think it can withstand having drama more than the average romance series.
>>290571872There are zero chances that this end on a yuri kiss
>>290571656Japanese non-creatives perhaps aren't good at reading subtext.
>>290571886The western sphere literally does not matter
>>290571876Yes. She finally found her true love with Lisa.
I love insert songs, bros
>>290571875>For example see Narusakus in Japan and compare them to Narusakus in the westThey still have recent doujinshi and fanart. They haven't moved on
>>290571923Yeah, the people good at reading subtext are ironic weebs from Twitter that see gay shit in everything and then get mad when they don't happen>>290571934Cancerous image
>>290571880I mean, what is the intention behind the obvious visual elements being put on display here? Hiding Mari’s face whenever she pushes Luca and Lara together, the constant references to the hot chocolate can and Mari’s face overlayed when they talk about true love and princes, the tension of scenes like the one in Mari’s room in this ep. These references strike a specific connection to Mari herself in correlation with the romantic love Lara is pursuing. I suppose something in the last few eps could recontextualize all this, but does that no longer mean it was baiting the idea of romance between Lara and Mari?
>>290571915>teasing 2 a kiss>not ending in a real kiss in the last episodeOnly a retard can't see a kiss ending happening
>>290571923I've read this many time on 4chan, and every time it ended with japanese fans being right
>>290571777The west is cucked past the point of no return
>>290571805Shiga seems like a dangerous place from this anime. Did the tourism board realize this?
>>290571979I'm never going to step on a bridge over lake Biwa.
>>290571923How many times the non-creatives japanese were right compared to the media literate westoids?
>>290571952so what are Japanese fans saying about the visual direction of the episodes? Anything that counters what people are saying about Mari and Lara or no?
>>290571952>randomly getting angry at fanartlol
>>290569801Source
>>290571915IMO it is going to end with that giant fishknife eating someone. IOW, this is a tragedy.
>>290571975what are some examples of this?Maybe it’s both the Japanese creators and the fans have no idea what they’re making
>>290571970there will be a a kiss in the last episodeit just wont be yuri
>>290572035> both the Japanese creators and the fans have no idea what they’re makingIt’s only you that understands it, right?
>>290572042The only person that will save Lara is Mari, so she will kiss her
>>290571952If you look at the lineage of the creators of this series, it's patently obvious where this is going.
>>290572042“Sorry, Lara! I was a huge pussy for not kissing you earlier, my bad! I take it back, we can just fuck now!”“Oh great Luca, my ambivalent feelings toward you that are likely more attributable to a close friend or brother are resolved and I truly love you! Let’s fuck!”
Mari is genuinely and unironically a closet lesbian but the mermaid craves the cock
>>290570714you can just copy the text and post the image yourself anon instead of posting twitter captures, even if this is your account.
>>290572035Shingeki no kyojin is a good example of this, western readers had a completely different way of interpreting the show than japanese readers
>>290571656We all know how delusional yumes can get. At least the koreans and the chink lucafags understand they lost.
>>290572035>Maybe it’s both the Japanese creators and the fans have no idea what they’re makingYeah, the creators don't understand what they're making. The only one who understands the plot is the twitter faggot with pronouns in bio
>>290572067It was a joke, but I am genuinely curious to hear examples of where the Japanese audiences ignored any perceived subtext and ended up being right
>>290572083Explain
Good episode of a great show and this is the thread we get.
>>290572110>that imageHoly cope kek
>>290572084This, but unironically. And yes, you will seethe.
>>290572120Ok, sorry for being sarcastic then. I can’t think of any examples right now.
>>290572120When the japanese audiences ignore the subtext it's because said subtext does not exist and you're just tumblrbrained
Imagine how many threads there will be when the inevitable yuri kiss happens. If there's anything hiding their lips though during the scene people will say it doesn't count.
>>290571979I noticed the kyoanus anime that's airing also takes place in Shiga, at least the last few eps
>>290572126Probably referring to the director being heavily involved in Revue Starlight which is itself heavily inspired and influenced by Utena. I don’t know what else they might be referring to
>>290571970>kiss endingIt's definitely not happening be it with mari or luca
>>290572002I'd honestly like an answer to this, beyond "sometimes the curtains are just blue."
>>290572133the less it looks like they'll get what they want they more rabid they becomesuch is life
>>290572170If they don't ignore the subtext does that mean it's real?
>>290572190Then search through the xitter, 2ch is mostly dead
why do nu-yurifags get attached to non-yuri showsfucking hell man, third time this happens
>>290572170I mean, yuri subtext specifically? Sure, but by subtext I mean this shows constant visual references to Lara’s relationship with Mari. I’m sorry but if the cutaways to hot chocolate can and other shit end up meaning absolutely nothing it’s just dumb. As an example the can isn’t even a good stand in for “humanity” or “freedom” or whatever shit might be the ending theme
There are only a handful of shows that have given me this feeling of 'simmering'.I think many shows go for a similar thing in too obvious a way.Everything feels poised, ready to spill over, and when it does in any given episode (not necessarily at climaxes), it feels that much more impactful for me.I'm reminded of, say, every other episode of Kare Kano, or the quieter episodes of RahXephon.But every episode of Goodbye, Lara has been like this for me.
>>290572175Stupid to use lineage in that case kek, probably read some ignorant twitter post
Hetcucks are having a melty
>>290572083>If you look at the lineage of the creators of this series, it's patently obvious where this is going.What ''lineage''
>>290571062>no one was gay thereAnon...
>>290572190>>290572229People were saying the twitter theories are schizo even tho most Japanese tweets I see comment on similar things, that’s why we asked what they’re saying elsewhere
>>290572232Do you even watch this show? Show me your downloaded episodes.
>>290571492>precure stopped being targeted to little girls and now they focus only on neetsIs that actually true? I might have to watch Precure if it is.
Most of what this show does isn't subtext. Stuff like the moon being just a sliver when Lara gets rejected by the prince or is confirming that her feelings for Luca aren't true love, but full when first meeting Mari and in another instance of her feelings responding to her is subtext because it requires the viewer to notice and interpret it. However, stuff like the respective size of Lara's heart in the OP pic or the chocolate can versus the energy drink can is hilariously over the top text. You'd have to be either retarded or in bad faith to ignore what it's saying.
>>290572288I streamed it
>>290572276>>290572258The director’s mother was a yuri activist fighting for the rights of cute 2d lesbian women
>>290572341>streamfag is retarded and borderline brain deadMany such cases
>>290572314Precisely. Which is why I wanna know what Japanese fans are saying about it otherwise. I don’t believe for a second that they’re blatantly ignoring it
>>290572314Hello kevin
>>290572314Still too subtle for the average anti-yuri fag.
>>290572258>probably read some ignorant twitter postYeah he just confirmed this >>290572348
Ngl bros I am hungry. Should I eat fish?
>>290572314>>290572386it really is Gridman all over again Jesus Christ
>>290572409sushi is always good
>>290572341>streamfag
>>290572355Only trust screencaps, or better, direct links. It's easy to claim someone is saying X without giving any proof of it.
>>290572126Tomohiro Furukawa is a protégé of Ikuhara of Utena fame, and Furukawa was Ikuhara's assistant director on Yurikuma Arashi, and also director of Shoujo Kageki Revue Starlight. Takushi Koide, the director of Goodbye Lara was Tomohiro Furukawa's protégé and assistant director on Shoujo Kageki Revue Starlight. It's a yuri family tree.
I fucking told you faggots that resentment fishdagger would attack Luca as soon as things didn't go in plan with Lara's wish.
>>290572410Guys touch each other’s chests all the time but no one thinks it’s yaoi
>>290572309>Is that actually true?Of course not. Precure always had "big friends" fans, but they're not the target audience. Some seasons are marginally less kiddy than others and can be perceived as pandering to the older fanbase, but that's not really the case.
>>290572409Yes. Be sure to eat the head first like any good mermaid would do.
>Luca is veganWhat a loser
>>290572453Koide was also director of episode 4 of Yuri Kuma Arashi.
>>290572453>protégéHe is not
>>290572505and a FAKE GAMER
>>290572410Gridman isn't the series I would use given its finale....
>>290572505Why won't he kiss the fish?
>>290572446Better yet fuck off from here and stay on twitter instead of posting garbage from randoms on here
>>290572528who was not the protege? This is a pretty accurate assessment
>>290572553It goes against his vegan beliefs.
>>290572545That's exactly my pointYurifags were certain Gridman would have a yuri ending because muh obvious subtext muh the signs are there!! Just like it's happening ITT
>>290572562People can shit on twitter fans and say they’re schizos all they like, but there’s been quite a few good threads on their analyzing this show. A bunch of them aren’t even about the yuri either
>>290572563Koide is not furukawas protege, where did you pick this from?
>>290572586Do you watch this show, though?
>>290572588stay there
You guys realize just because people say something on twitter doesn't mean it's incorrect, right?
Can’t believe my goat Himeka is pushing the compulsory heterosexuality
>>290572586Thing is, Lara's subtext is VERY different, hell it's not even really subtext at this point
>>290572586>Yurifags were certain Gridman would have a yuri ending because muh obvious subtextOk, I have to tell you to stop lying.One fucking Mugino spamming with Grindman shit on /a/ and /u/ where he was told man ytimes to fuck off with it, doesn't equal yurifags.It's tiring seeing you try to create this false perspective.
>>290572632when has it ever been correct
>>290572632We did it twitter! ;)
>>290572638She'll be ashamed of her words and deeds once she sees Mari princess carry Lara. Some neurons will activate too.
>>290572641That one anon already mentioned how there’s a difference between actual subtext (casual shots of the chocolate can or Mari when “true love” is mentioned) versus the story beating you over the head with it (the full moon, Lara’s light reacting to thoughts of Mari)
>>290572632>rightWrong.
>>290572586Not comparable at all. Gridman had a focus on the male MC who was present and heavily involved from the first episode. Here, Luca doesn't even make an appearance until halfway through the show and after he does he isn't even that important to the plot. Could as well have been cut and it wouldn't change all that much.
>hey Lara, can we take it slower? I'd like to get to know you and I think you're moving too fast for ke>Lara REEEES so hard she nearly kills him>umm het btfo ami I right yuri sisters?Is this what's called media literacy?
>>290572646>doesn't equal yurifagsthis thread shows the oppositepost 2020 yurifags are a fucking drag who dont even watch actual yuri shows
>>290572689>>290572670>>290572647Why do you parade fallacy around proudly?
>>290572586No bro, yurischizos are sure this time is different!
>>290572521Koide was only a key animator for an episode Kinema Citrus was sub contracted for.
>>290572717Why don't you stay in xitter if you like their opinions so much?
Quick search found this one.
>>290572591I saw on Twitter
>>290572745I don't read about anime on twitter. Nothing is incorrect just because it's on a shitty platform. It is incorrect if it is factually untrue.
>>290572701>Lara clearly uncomfortable with the idea of pursuing romance with Luca throughout the entire episode>Moves to kiss Luca despite neither of them fully understanding if they’re in love yet or not>In her eyes gets rejected after desperately trying to do what will save her family, has a panic attack>Umm clearly Lara is in love with Luca still and just needs to take it slowIs this what's called media literacy?
>>290572715But do (You) watch this show?
>>290572776What was the quote again, you run away you gain 2 or something? You move forward you gain 1?
>>290572784I don't give a single fuck about what twitter cucks are saying>>290572799Yes i watch this show
>>290572776Clearly a westerner larping a Japanese account. There’s no way a fan in Japan would fall for the bait like that
>>290572786And none of that implies she's a dyke, retard.
>>290572776Cunt just copy the text and post it instead of posting the entire screencap with their username and likes
>>290572686its called yuribaitand you're getting baited againwouldn't happen if you supported actual yuri shows
>>290572812People here seem to be consistently saying just because something about this show was said on twitter, that thing is wrong.
>>290572867people here are right
>>290570670Why the white vignette, though? It's usually reserved for flashbacks, dreams, and the like. It adds a dream-like quality to the scene.
>>290572862I’m watching every yuri show this season so I think I can schizo post about this one a little I want
>>290572892If you post nonsense you gain one, if you post logical fallacy you gain two.
>>290572867People here are right, fuck off back to twitter faggot
>>290572816Yeah, Japanese fans are all saying it's obvious bait and laughing at anyone falling for it. Trust me implicitly on this bro.
>>290572862Isn't this show already getting a second season? It's actually mega successful. That immortal witch loli show well, that one looks like it fell off hard.
>>290572778most likely vaguely or they're just dumb
>>290572248This is a great post. Puts into words exactly some of what I've been feeling. It's really something special to find a show that's directed with so much intention.
>>290572821you’re right because we should only be looking at this scene in the context of the scene itself and nothing more about the story
>>290568540People are still watching this boring garbage? In this stacked as fuck season?>thread is a bunch of /u/niggers and trolls riling them upAh yeah, this """"people"""".
>>290572933This is a show designed to end. It can't have a season 2
>>290568746why is the blonde dude more fuckable than this ugly blonde girl
>>290572970stacked season with mushoku tensei and bleach am i right
>>290571290>Only implied it to the western audience>>290571658>The director teased yuri in the west but not in Japan>>290571713>Because the director only mentioned yuri in an interview exclusive for the westHere's a tip, if this show was truly yuri this wouldn't be a thing because it's not illegal to make yuri shows in Japan and the director doesn't need to slip hints only in western interviews or whatever because he will get killed if he does in japanese interviews
>>290573001Yeah, MT and Bleach are great
>>290568540
This is going to be another yuribait like Kaguya
I thought we would get the comfy threads back after this episode, I guess I was wrong.
>>290572812>Yes i watch this showShow me your downloaded episodes then. Here are mine. And if you're wandering about the .mp4 files, it's because the software that I use to watch the show with my friends doesn't support soft subs.
>>290573038it ends in 3 eps, it can't really go back to slow and comfy
>>290573007I disagree. Something being yuri definitely narrows the market and will automatically make people a lot less interested. I can see them not wanting to be very upfront about it as an anniversary show that they want to be a smash hit.
>>290573034See >>290571886Kaguya IS yuri, but the creator isn't allowed to announce it in Japan only in the West
>>290573032lmao, thanks for posting this, I thought of making it myself.
>>290573007>it's not illegal to make yuri shows in JapanOtaku are homophobic like they're living 20 years in the past. If the director wants his surprise yuri show to be as commercially successful as possible, he needs to hetbait them.
>>290573051embarrassing anon
>>290573038schizophrenics should not be allowed on the internet. At least not the uncreative kinds.
>>290573076It not being a battle shounen narrows the market too. Why is this not a battle shounen?
It struck me that every major character in the show has a helper of sorts. Most significantly of course Lara has Mari and Lisa has fishbro. But also Luca has Leo, and the witch has a weird snake looking out for her at least. Deep friendships and deep relationships other than romantic love seems like the most important theme in the show to me.
>>290573105How so?
>>290573076>I disagreeWell, you're retarded.>Something being yuri definitely narrows the market and will automatically make people a lot less interestedAnd false marketing destroy careers. >>290573095No anon, you're the one getting yuribaited. If this was yuri, the director would announce it
>>290573038When were the threads ever comfy?
>>290573127Last three episodes will be Mari fighting the giant fish.
>>290573051>Show me your downloaded episodes thenI have a Crunchyroll subscription and i watch it on my televion in 4k. Why the fuck would i download it?
>>290573149Episode 1- 5 threads were peak comfy
>>290573076>>290573095There’s a reason certain franchises will do everything under the sun but explicitly label their series or characters as yuri. The minute you do that a big portion of your audience or your otaku base will become alienated because they think lesbians are weird
>>290573130just needless explanation of everything over a i watch this show post
>>290573076>>290573095>>290573191Are yurifags really this retarded
>>290573149The moment anons lost their belief in luca = lisa. Like little kid who stop believing in santa claus.
How come this season gets to have TWO blonde traps?
>>290573149The first two threads were alright, the schizos and masterbaiters were a negligible minority in the very beginning. Unfortunately that minority gained momentum quickly for some reason.
>>290573186not necessarily, the discussions were mostly related to yuri or yuribait. 1st episode had good discussion
>>290573191>There’s a reason certain franchises will do everything under the sun but explicitly label their series or characters as yuriThere's 0 actual yuri franchises that does this.
>>290573132It’s not false marketing if you label your series as romance rather than explicitly yuri. It just allows you to cast a wider net. Plus if people are actually mad about a lesbian ending they’ve already watched the whole show so it doesn’t matter
>>290573237>the discussions were mostly related to yuriThat's why it was good
Never give yuri schizos an inch. Simple as.
>>290573130Baka. Get all your episodes from the same group and keep them in order. Also Windows 11.
>>290573269So you're going to remain in denial until ep12. Ok.
>>290573256It matters if you still want to sell them BD sets afterwards or maybe want them as repeat customers for future shows.
>>290573256Anon, like the post above you says, there 0 yuri series that follow this retardation.Japan is not a muslim country. It's not illegal to make homossexual stories there. This persecution bullshit is just you pretending you're not getting yuribaited
>>290573242yea im not talking about actual yuri franchises that have accepted they have less mass market appeal. Im talking about other franchises that make room for yuri ships aplenty but dont label themselves as yuri
>>290573180>>290572341Isn't it very convenient how all antiyuri schizos (who are definitively watching this show) happen to be streamniggers? Really makes you think.>>290573273That's linux bro
>>290573264if you were a yurifag
he's literally me if a girl ever confessed to me (impossible)
>>290573319>Im talking about other franchises that make room for yuri ships aplenty but dont label themselves as yuriYou're saying the main ship of this show is yuri but they are hiding it's yuri because of the evil japanese homophobic chuds.Do you have any idea how retarded you sound
>>290571470He's originally an anglerfish
>>290573256>Plus if people are actually mad about a lesbian endingits kind of strange to me that people could actually manage to get angry about such a thing
>>290573336>That's linux broOf course it isDo you also have epic yuri programming socks
>>290572410damn yuuta is lucky
>>290573336Thanks now I'm embarrassed. I thought the colors and the rounded edges looked just like it.
>>290573256>Plus if people are actually mad about a lesbian ending they’ve already watched the whole show so it doesn’t matterIt does matter for merch and BD aka how they actually make money, lolCompletely delusional
>>290573336you're sounding more like those you're the samefag boogeyman posters, just talk about the show here or with your mates instead of getting hung up on something this irrelevant.
>>290573351not anon but I think it’s more likely they’d be vague about it because they want people to stay invested on how it’ll end rather than avoiding making people mad. Like yea if you labeled the show yuri people would know how it’s gonna end, but instead people are waiting week-to-week to see what happens.Either way it’s prolly not gonna be yuri
>>290573001If you like those, sure, but there's also a bunch of nice shows if you like actual romance, there's a GiTS show, a new Kyoanus show, and there's even not one, but like three other /u/ series and all the Isekaishit you could count if you're into that. One would think that with all that offer, this kind of show would be better served having its niche threads on /u/ or something.
>>290573149Before the Lisa = Luca schizotranny started shitting up the threads. Worst part is that he even managed to convince a bunch of retards to believe in it right up until this episode.
>>290573415>it’s more likely they’d be vague about it because they want people to stay invested on how it’ll end rather than avoiding making people madYeah, that's called yuribaiting
It's pretty obvious it's going to be the friends along the way ending
This thread is embarassing
>>290573449Precisely, the crowd that would get mad about baiting is significantly less than anyone else so it wouldn’t impact sales or anything
>>290573373Homosexuality shouldn't be promoted by children's shows, simple as.
>>290573374>being a microjeet slaveNGMI
>>290571702>lobotomized actual fish GraceKinda hot and kinda sad.
Everytime Luca gets shat on the hetshitters get assmad and shit up threads as much as they can, this is why threads are worse even if today was a pretty good ep.
Not only is there gonna be explicit yuri end, there will also be a scene that will suggest YoshiyaxLuca is gonna happen. And that's not joke. They're hinting at it in the opening. This will be the actual plot twist not barely hidden yuri.
>>290573428Both gits and kyoani show have been awful especially the latter one, good ones so far has been korekaite, futsusuka, taiari and jaadugar
>>290572985I mean that lewd magical girl one.
The idea of this ending with explicit yuri and some Japanese guy getting vehemently angry and cancelling his blu-ray preorder is really funny to me
>>290573494Anon, this show airs at 12:30 AM in Japan.
>>290573570KimiShinu has been good but I wish they had a better budget that they didn’t blow on all the extended fight scenes
Is this a Christian anime?
>>290573591Maybe funny to you, but not funny to producers and sponsors.
>>290573628no, it's protestant
>>290573627They have been managing with 3D models pretty well to their credit but I personally found it weak after seirans death
>>290573591kek. Safer than the other case. Chinks are scary
>>290573638True, which is why this won’t end in yuri. Can’t jeopardize the anniversary project like that
>>290573628No, it's a Hans Christian Andersen anime.
>>290573570GiTS is greatAre you butthurt because you got yuribaited by it?
>>290573414after you stop crying about yurifags 24/7
Yuriniggers it's not the thought of yuri that makes others mad. It's just maddening to see this desperation and these ridiculous arguments to claim something as yuri on non-existent grounds. Just enjoy the fucking show and pretend but pretend knowingly.
>>290573558>there will also be a scene that will suggest YoshiyaxLuca is gonna happen. And that's not joke. They're hinting at it in the opening. This will be the actual plot twist not barely hidden yuri.This episode with Yoshiya saying "nobody will ever like me" was so suspicious, I think it was a hint to it lol

>>290573754They will stay friends. But Luca has never tried to understand Lara's likes, he always just pushes things on her because he's an autist. It's the complete opposite of Mari's relationship with her, she's endlessly patient and understanding.
>>290573688>It's just maddening to see this desperation and these ridiculous arguments to claim something as yuri on non-existent groundsThis far more happens in reverse though. See how people clung the "up to interpretation" producer line from the most recent Gundam.

>>290573758What it sounds like to me is that you just want everyone in this dumbfuck thread to go “oooh pretty colors! Wowwww the animation so smooth!” every episode instead of trying to extrapolate anything else out of the show
I don't see how you can come out of this episode without hating women >defends his own art>feels down sometimes>oh he's definitely not prince material thenTypical unrealistic expectations. And then she tries to kill him just for being considerate of her feelings. Like holy shit if you want to move the relationship along she starts feeling wishy washy, but then when you want to take it slow she thinks it's pathetic. I hope Lara gets fileted alive, fuck her
>>290573722You mean how it's yuri because you say so and if it's not then it's secret yuri and if it's not that either it really wanted to be but the man in Japan is keeping you down?
>>290573817>You can't say this when the director has brought up yuri in interviews.I can, because there was never a japanese interview with the director bringing that up

>>290573896>goomba fallacyidk I don't play mario, explain.
>>290573868Lycoris isn't yuri. But you forgot Shokei Shoujo, WataTabe, WataOshi, WataYuri, NinKoro, Bad Girl, among others.
>>290573817The most recent Gundam is GQuX, which you'd know if had more exposure to the franchise than just the "yuri gundam" you latched onto.
>>290573867It was part of the same interview. But what you're alleging here is a unproveable yuri conspiracy, which means that at least one person on the staff thinks of it as yuri.
>>290573782>yes, it really is that small
