Come all in for the yuri victory celebration
>>290747127There really is no room to deny anything.
Johnny won!
>>290747127Yuri won?
>>290747279Yuri won
>>290747127Daddy's home!Now tell Daddy who is the big dyke here?
>>290747250big day for sea creatures
I love shots like this.
Luca will be the sperm donor for the girls
Yuri and yaoi won
So where's our vocal resident antiyurifag who spammed to death last threads with his whining?
How are Lucabros coping today?
>>290747297Anyone who gives that obsessed flip namefaggot should be gassed
>>290747241It's platonic love
But what if Luca had more tim...OHNONONONONO HAHAHAHAHAHA
Rowan: you will kill humans to save the merfolk.Grace: your truelove can save both the humans and merfolk.How is Grace evil agian?
I wanna hug Mari and tell her that everything's gonna be okay.
Scalies won
Ok I'm picking it up again. Yuri yay :D
>>290747341>poor Yoshiya can't get girls to like him>gonna end with autistic femboyThe horror.
>>290747356see>>290747341
>>290747369Seriously though, what was that writer smoking with that interview?
>>290747370She's notRowan is the evil one blaming all ningens because of an incident
>>290747328Her heart is beating.
Honestly Mari x Grace ending would be more proper.
Genuinely, episode of the season? It's so pretty.
>>290747279>>290747320Nice official shit list you got here, yurifag >>290746316
>>290747356I'm happy, he finally met his destined one.
>>290747127Leaks said Lara's light for Mari isn't going to be enough. Maybe if it happened 200 years ago it would have worked, but the size of the blade will probably only work if all of Lara's forms of love gets devoured. So bye-bye to Shiga.
>>290747341But I thought Luca was gonna pair up with his crossdressing otouto?
>>290747279Yuri victory!!
>>290747341A hole is a hole thinking won.
So if we get leaks this week, will we get the leaks for both episodes?
>>290747434It's crazy watching this series and Nanoha Exceeds at the same time with how different the production value and cinematography is.
When was even the last time an ambitious soulful anime original went het? Yuri has achieved total dominance.
>>290747434I'd say this anime is the prettiest one of the year. It looked stunning from start to finish.
>>290747356He’s for Yoshiya. Maybe Lara and Mari will call on him when they want a human dildo.
The sky was blue on the human side but black on the mermaid side
>>290747422I think the queen left him for a human, but in turn became a mortal. This might be Grace's revenge on Rowan for killing her true love.
>>290747434What is even competing this season?It's my personal favorite episode of the season for sure
>>290747487Sonny boy?
>>290747434The crossfades from Lara to Mari as they tell the truth to/are told the truth by their family, making it seem like everyone is in the same room. The match cut at the end from the bright glowing moon outside Mari's bedroom to the grim one on Lara's island as she says they can't be together any more.This is such a gorgeous show. One of those where I know I'm witnessing something big.
>>290747494>colorschizo is back
Don't worry it gonna be framed in such way it's gonna by up to interpretation ending in epilogue where Lara gonna be shown to hang around both Mari and also Luca in montage among other human friends.
>>290747279>>290747297>>290747471Morbidly obese AND obsessed samefagging
>>290747479Staff leaker may post something tomorrow about episode 11 if someone pesters him enough
AOTS is yuri yet again. Yuri superior, hetcucks cope.
>>290747481Basically you have soul (this) vs souless (franchise grab without anything making the franchise good in it or very limited time) take.
>>290747279Not yet
>>290747465Yoshiya has room for a flower in each arm.
>>290747578Weird falseflag
>>290747541>sonny boy was the hetfags' last hurrah>it's cuckshitpottery
>>290747578This isn't my aots for sure.Still enjoyable though
>>290747127Clearly the power of FRIENDSHIP beats all and Lara and Mari's FRIENDSHIP will save the day.
>>290747573Yes, my question if he will have access to both episode 11 and 12
>>290747634Mari = the best friendLuca = the boyfriendEveryone wins super happy ending.
>>290747606Lucafags doing falseflag to distract themselves.
I'm so happy bros, it's good to be right all along
>>290747634Dad: What is yout true love Lara?Lara: It's my friendship for Mari!Kinda weak seeing the setting.
>>290747629What's supposed to better this season?
This anime didn't deserve Luca, like make him main character of some other anime series Fuck YuriIncels
>>290747592Sad samefagging
"...and he promised to be true to you here and hereafter, then his soul would glide into your body and you would obtain a share in the future happiness of mankind. He would give a soul to you and retain his own as well"Next episode plot will follow the original tale
>>290747434The colors have always been gorgeous. Don't think there's been even one shot that looked bad.
>>290747669>Mari = the girlfriend>Luca = the best male friend>Everyone wins super happy ending.Works too.
>>290747405He was referring to the adaptability of love. Imagine someone who loses their spouse and becomes a widow or widower. It's true that they already fell in love once -- clearly, deeply so, to the point that they thought they wouldn't want to love anyone else for the rest of their lives. But does that then mean they actually WON'T be able to fall in love again?Maybe.But also maybe not, if you gave them enough time.
uh oh hetcuck melty
Ummmm hetchuds, your status??????
>>290747641Doubtful about 12, seems like he gets the episodes early week by week and that's it. For 12 we have to wait for the advanced screening next week (assuming someone willing to spoil it watches it)
>>290747739Luca is still technically her boyfriend, unless there's a scene where she breaks up with him and then starts dating Mari.
>>290747713Well it's a matter of personal taste.Personally, I find more enjoyable:HanaoriIbitteKatainakaGrow Up ShowKimishinuToumeiMaybe others...Don't want to diss this anime, but I did take it up on a whim and liked it enough to keep watching, but it's not special to me, sorry
>>290747775To busy receiving the pipe from their new BF
Luca will be there for Lara right next to Mari but will realize his love is minute compared to Mari's and push her to be with Lara and save everyone.
>>290747730I just got here though
>>290747818Fuck this look like a reverse trap gonna get fucked by ikemen scenario.
Mari = TRUE LOVELuca =
Keep in mind that Mari apparently had no friends prior to the story. And now she's skipping school to look for someone she's known for a few months.
>>290747840They only used Luca for engagement They knew their shitty anime can't be popular wuthout male love interest
>>290747341>Yoshiya and Luca date for half a year>the mood is right and they undress>Yoshiya: "Wait, you're a guy???"
>>290747127Nips in the comments have already smelled blood in the water. This is going to be the most biblical yuribait ending in history.
Anyone who's not blind and actually paid attention already knew that Mari is her true love.
>>290747893We talk about a girl who has massive mommy issues which partially were relieved by talking old fish mommy.
Wait. This means the fish dagger was moving into position way before Lara even started confessing. Since Kota, who is seen driving the car, was at Mari's house when the confession happened.
>>290747893Damn. Mari sucks at lying. No wonder she's always blunt.
>>290747937There's nothing there silly yurischizo.
>2 minutes of interaction and already has more chemistry with him than with Lara
>>290748003Female fans of this show will get better at that pairing with time.
>>290747982>"Do you think I can find true love here in Shiga">Cut to Mari for absolutely no reason>Cut back to Lara again
>>290747893
>"This isn't about romantic love. Look at the OP. It's about her love for all humanity.">"The director meant friendship yuri.">"If anything, she's in love with the prince going by the trailers and original story." >"Wait no... Stop. STO— AUUUUGGHH"
>>290747487Panty and Stocking? last year?
Ningen o koroseNingen o kurae.
very subtle
>>290747937The directing and symbolism haven't been subtle, the actual question is whether they're gonna commit or not. Every single time the staff open their mouth it goes like "friendship", "open to interpretation", "ambiguous"
I'm almost certain Mari will be a Christ-like figure. She'll die to redeem humanity's sins in the eyes of mermaids, and will be resurrected.
>>290748112
>>290748075It's over, you don't need to fight it anymore >>290747934
>>290747279yep yep
how can it be yuri when mari punched lara in the face
>>290748113Did they btfo you """media literate""" retards on the "orgasm" scene?
>>290748027There's been quite a lot of shots in this series that were there for no reason. Ah, must be nothing.
>>290748088>Panty and Stocking? last year?Are you plain retarded?PSG was always het since it was 2nd season and MC character fucked with thousands of guys in it, it didn't went het, it was always het from start.
>>290748111Nice frame change.
>>290748189The DV makes it extra yuri!
>>290747934Hilarious that anyone thinks otherwise
>>290748145This doesn't mean shit retard, they are freinds that will become lovers
>>290748113ED singer literally confirmed its friendship and everyone wants to ignore that apparently
>>290748140To add, I feel like this is the only thing that would convince Rowan and Lisa to reconsider their stance on humans. A human willingly offering their soul to a mermaid.
>>290748027Sometimes the curtains are just blue.
hetfags grasping at straws now lmao
>>290748189>He doesn’t know about lesbian couple domestic violence rates
>>290748288>ED singer literally confirmed its friendship and everyone wants to ignore that apparentlyAh ok, I didn't know that OP or ED singers had knowledge about the plot.
>>290748259Oh god I can already see the mass cope>f-friendship IS yuri!AAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>290748209Huh....Zenshu! then.
>>290748027Not only that! Lara called Marí to say goodbye and tell her not to look for her because she realized that she is her true love, which means they are going to kill her for obtain her light.
>the ED singer said...The head writer of Lycoris retweeted art of Takina/Chisato having sex. Do you really want to go down that rabbit hole?
>>290748309>He doesn’t know about lesbian couple domestic violence ratesAnd better orgasms rate and quality too, don't forget about that.
This is when the witch took control of Rowan's body.
Fags and dykes have more money to spare for travel, fine dining and buying souvenirs because they don't have to take care of any children. So if you stop and think about it, it's only natural that the Shiga tourism board would target its animated commercial towards them. Straight people who favor straight romance don't have the financial means to come over, much less in this economy.
Mari looks like boy so its het victory
>>290748342Reposted by the official account...
>>290747955He was there because he suspected Grace was in Mari's house and possibly already knew she was Mari's fish. He saw how much Grace being alive tormented Lisa and was prepared to take matters into his own hands.
>>290748288Nanoha is confirmed yuri too because the VA said so?
>>290747487Look Back movie.
>>290748187fag fag
>>290747934But will she truly believe in what she loves next ep? Will her love for Mari save both merfolk and humanity? Or will she just push Mari away and doom them all?
>>290748388DenialAngerBargainingDepressionAcceptance <<<<<<< YOU ARE HERE
>>290748407Show me one photo where mari looks like a boy
>>290748382chisato outright called takina her earnest friend and tried to hook her up with an old man in the novel, it's not the same
>>290748386She probably gave him the last bits of her light.
>>290748442That's not an anime original
>>290748211>>290748456Here
>>290748385I thought lesbians tend to get tired of smashing clams and go bi so they can have dick again. That’s why they’ll keep Luca around.
>>290747279>>290747297>>290747471>>290747592>>290748187
I don't know whether it will end with yuri, het, or friendship but the fact remains that the series itself is pushing Lara x Mari hard and if they don't commit it's just an instance of the creators deviating from their previous narrative throughline in favor of more marketability.
>>290748442>Look Back movie.But that didn't turn het.
>>290748490
I think Lara's Mom and Mari are same person and thats what true love is
>>290748476And the show literally told you Mari is her true love but I guess the actual work only matters if it's convenient for you.
>>290748485Nah these are just plain bisexuals, false alarm friend.
>>290748385>And better orgasms rate and quality too,How do you know that? Are you a lesbian?
>>290748478I had no idea.>>290748496It was pretty popular that's why I posted that.
>>290748388Do you honestly think the chroniclinally online Twitter/tumblr fags actually buys merch?
I honestly adore Mari's design. She's such a perfect, simple, straightforward tomboy. No crazy hair, no uniform modifications, no makeup. And yet, you wouldn't mistake her for a boy. It's so goddamn tasteful.
>>290748440Everybody is in agreement that Nanoha is yuri anyway.Everybody will be in agreement in the case of Lara too.
Notice how we get flashbacks from Lara with the Prince and Luca while Rowan explains the blade right before he asks her about who is actually her true love
>>290748533>>290748536I think Lara's true love is the friends she made along the way
>>290748476Yuri girls support their crushes romantic pursuits: see KnM, CCS, Girlfriends. Once it failed, Chisato kissed Takina and asked her about who she liked.
Epilogue just leaked
>>290748540Well are you a lesbian to know they have higher rate of domestic violence?
Luca will impregante Lara multiple times so Mari and Lara can have children of their own
>>290748410Once again, people will ignore this fact to fuel their agenda. The show is going crazy with the bait but the even the official account is telling you what’s actually happening
>>290747127First time watcher here. Is this a yuri anime?
Mari is Prince Eric
>>290748583>english
>>290748580the only romance in Lycotrash was interracial yaoi shit
>>290748591No but that's usually from statistics.
>>290748410out of courtesy
Lara and Mari were already friends as established since episode 4 and grew even closer after that. Why wasn't Lara saved since then?
>>290748631Wait what the fuck. I'm pretty sure I watched the Little Mermaid at some point in my life, but it's been a long time. What is the context of this scene? Because just based on your image you can draw a comparison to what happened with Mari.
>>290748652>Why wasn't Lara saved since then?Because she didn't realized she loved Mari
>>290748602>Luca will impregante Lara multiple times so Mari and Lara can have children of their ownHe doesn't even need to do that, just take a bucked with water, make Lara in mermaid form put her roe in that and then let Luca cum over it.Voila done.Still better fate than what awaits Kota to become Lisa's pair of testicles for life.
>>290747937This is true.
>>290748621Mutual love between girls confirmed. Whether it's platonic or romantic is yet to be seen.
>>290748573>Unrequited love Total Luca Victory
>>290748649>No but that's usually from statistics.Ok, I too quoted statistics like you.
>>290748652She’s actively trying to ignore the fact that she’s in the love with Mari. I think she at least subconsciously understood that Mari might be under threat if she acknowledged it, and now that it’s clear she definitely doesn’t want to face it
>>290748686>epilogue>Lisa is now a guy>it's Larry!I would freak the fuck out.
>>290748426What I mean is that Lisa went to Lara because she saw the dagger move while in car with Kota. But Kota was at Mari's house when Lara confessed. Meaning the dagger was moving way before Lara confessed.
>>290748164That guy is mental illness incarnate
>>290748583Damn, they're airing it early next week and that's all the progress they've made on the animation? They're going to have to crunch hard.
Is this what they call yearning?
Notice how Mari said she’s lonely without Lara AND Gon, not that she loves Lara. Girl just wants her friends back
>>290748652because she didn't realise it yet
Soon.
>>290748770Don't shitpost with Satuki, fattyRemember you hate Watanare because of Ajisai's brother
>>290748746I think she already had realized that Mari is her true love i.e. her romantic interest.
>'hetfags' complain about yuri shipping but don't call out yaoi shippingi'm noticing
MY KING
Lara and Mari will platonically french kiss each other in episode 12. Mari will cop a feel as well just to make for certain that the light is invoked to save everyone. And then they will live out the rest of their days in close friendship.
>>290748665I haven't watched it in forever either but IIRC Ursula's eel familiars try to drag the prince down during the final confrontation.
>>290748832They don't actually care about the pairingThey just want their internet enemies to "lose"
Mark my words, the show will end with no kissu, no confession and Luca is still Lara's boyfriend.
>>290748840So basically identical to what seems to be happening here. That's cool. I need to rewatch that movie.
>>290748817
>>290748838>Mari will cop a feelWhere? Lara is flat as a surf board.
>>290748731I am not the first anon, that quoted the statistics, but sure post your source. Seriously, are you a woman?
I love coming here once a week to see the cope from anti-yuri schizos.
>>290748882She'll find something to grab.
Mari and Lara could kiss on screen with visible tongue action and anti-yuri schizos will claim "THEY'RE JUST GOOD FRIENDS"
>>290748906kek same, the way they're coping is hilarious
>>290748824You reminded me of the time some schizo cropping out SADaharu and Ajisai's brothers' eyes out when he first saw this
>>290748817>epilogue scene of Luca walking home after being railed by Yoshiya H...hot
Shibari with Mari
>>290748931And the people who worked on the show will dance around the answer and call it friendship kiss.
Anyone else feel like Lara’s light seemingly triggering some sort of ecological evolutionary disaster is kinda reminiscent of Ponyo’s plot?
>Hana CopeThe ED singer? You mean the same ED singer that said Luca saved Lara from her fear of humans and told Lara to go for it in episode 7? I don't think her interpretation is supported by what happens in the show.
Last thread was kind of shaky.
a cute kota
>>290749014This recent tweet was retweeted by the official account so I think it’s accurate as an interpretation
>>290748997Yes. Ponyo was so good. I want to watch it again.
>>290749046So was the other one.
I really love the theme that plays whenever the dagger is on screen. It's so energetic but also ominous
>>290749014Once again, people will ignore this fact to fuel their agenda. The show is going crazy with yuri even the official account is telling you what’s actually happening
Wait a second.
Last thread was kind of flippy
>>290749014How THIS is cope
Break time for Aromi-chan
Even if they tell me the witch is dead, I don’t really feel anything because I have no idea what she wanted or what she was actually doing.Rowan is suddenly going on about how “humans are terrifying,” but all I can think is, wouldn’t it have been better if Lara had properly explained that to her when she was a kid?
kino episode
Cross-thread mass quoting from dead threads = mentally stable and normal behaviour
>>290749094I hate yurishitters but this show was actually pretty fucking gay.
Why was she after Rowan? What did she want from him?
>>290749094Flashback to Grace doing that to Lara's mom next episode.
I care more about what the staffs say than what is actually happening in the show because I don't even watch the show, I'm only here to win my internet argument.
>>290748985They can do that as much as they want as long as it happens.
It’s so fun trolling on here and yuri shitposting and het shitposting at the same time. I love you guys.
>>290749046I am just shocked that an official social media account would retweet posts from staff members involved in the project just shocked
>>290747279doomed yuri won
This is a friendship thread for friendship show, be friends or don't post.
>>290749177>gross flagshitKill yourself.
>>290749141unironically what hetfags have been doing since ep 1, sometimes they even talk about things that didn't even happen in the show
>>290749136Grace is Lara's mom.
So Luca and Yoshiya already on the island?
>>290748865Aidor/u/fag in a nutshell
>>290749177>flagyuri is cool but fuck troonflaggotry
>>290748887Data from large-scale surveys, such as studies published by the Kinsey Institute and the Journal of Sexual Medicine, indicate that lesbians achieve orgasm approximately 75% to 86% of the time during sexual encounters, whereas heterosexual women report climaxing roughly 61% to 65% of the time and roughly 58% to 66% for bisexual women.Large-scale surveys like the CDC's National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey (NISVS) report that about 43.8% of lesbian women, 61.1% of bisexual women, and 35% of heterosexual women experience rape, physical violence, or stalking by an intimate partner in their lifetimes.Just use simple google man.
What is the actual plot of this show? Grace's plan makes zero sense.
I don't see how anyone could deny it was yuri. It could be doomed yuri or fulfilled yuri but it was always going to be yuri.
>>290749360Explained later.
>>290749188Especially when said staff member straight up calls their relationship friendship, how irresponsible!
>>290748241>i wonder how and why he started wathign lara>wathignThe melty is exposing his ESL
>>290749333Put the barrel to a loaded sawed off to the roof of your mouth and pull the trigger.
>>290749379We just need this to end up in a kiss now
The show is gonna pull a Gwitch and cop out of affirming yuri love.
What the hell is going on with Luca's self portrait?
>>290749360Pretty sure Grace fell in love with a human but the mermaids forced them apart or something. I think she wants to prove that humans and mermaids can fall in love and ultimately coexist.
>>290749460I think there's just a plant in front of it.
>>290749355Interesting but I am too bored to check how accurate they are. You still haven't answered my last question.
>>290749460Lala is... messed up
>>290749460I think he was actually right about Lara's true nature after all
>>290749460Its not a self portrait. It's Luca drawing her.
>>290747434EP of the year for me and I will reference it in the list
>it was this specific shot that pops up in Lara's mindOkay then, it didn't take a genius but it confirms she fell in love with Mari in episode 3.
>>290749440Calm down, Aidor/u/fliP
>>290749531Anon is talking about the portrait on the left, which Luca called "my true self".
This is how they'll portray the kiss.
>>290747434the art direction is brilliant
>>290749531The left most one is his self portrait.
>>290749594Reminds me of Utena's "censorship" using the spinning rose.
>>290749594Holy kino
>>290749594this is gas why does this look ripped straight from the anime
>>290749460She's actually a cross dresser like Leo.
>>290749379it's either>bait>troll>terminally online zoomoid obsessed with culture war bullshit, likely a male and virgin
remember the tanuki plot...
>>290749594I will take their lips getting close and Lara's light growing blindingly bright.
>>290749594>it's totally not inspired by Uten-
It's not yuri until they kiss.
>>290749460>>290749493Oh yeah true. You can see it in ep7. For a moment I thought he had started ripping the painting.
>>290747127Flop
>>290748631oh shit
>cubeslopowari da...
>>290749725>>it's totally not inspired by Uten-idk anyone has ever said that
>>290749360Lisa is a pawn of Rowan. Grace was monitoring Lisa and found out Lisa had taken Lara, which is her potential source of light. So she had to bust out and chase down Lara to recover her before Rowan can convince Lara he is correct. Rowan is Grace's nemesis here as he wants the light for the mermaid kingdom's people. But Grace ran out of energy to be able to do anything about it or recover Lara once she broke down the wall. Apparently she may still be barely alive due to the snake grabbing Mari at the end though. Most likely that is improvisational since if she can't take Lara back then she will need to bring Mari to Lara for The Stabbening. I assume the only difference between Grace and Rowan is what they want the light for. But they need the Stabbening to commence forthwith.
>>290748906Hetcucks gotta be serious masochists. Why would they even keep coming here? If yuri makes you mad then just drop the show, geez.
>>290749594That looks like it's straight out of the anime
How gay is the kiss going to be?
What do you guys think about this?
Why is Luca blushing here?
>>290749542Knew it looked familiar
>>290749754Miyazaki would never
>>290749821Poor Mari if she won't be able to satisfy that monster in bed.
>>290747386Grace can't be truly dead. I think she will be a brief but emotional re-encounter with Mari, if not in her fish form then in some other form (given that she's truly debilitated), and tell her the other side of the story about what happened between Rigmor and the humans back then. Only after she is armed with this knowledge Mari will set out to finally try to find Lara and somehow thread the needle; save Lara in a way that the fish dagger doesn't kill her. Or not even that, Mari might just sacrifice herself to the dagger and her selfless commitment will be enough to purify Lara's heart.
>>290749821This jeet is mentally ill.
>>290749775Nobody likes you, schizo. Please calm down with your schizo ramblings and make on-topic posts so that we can have a good, peaceful thread. Thanks in advance.
>>290749821So that fish thing is just a symbol for Lara's cock getting hard for Mari. This is het.
>>290749863Luca and RokaBoth are losers
>>290749903It literally says "translated from Chinese" there though
>>290749754I don't see any cubes though
Fools!The yuri is a lie, "special" princesses become male if their true love is female!
Platonic friendship can overcome love-based magical curses.
What is the point of Luca's character if not to show that love doesn't have to be romantic?
>>290749948What's the difference?
>>290749821Not specifically yuri-related since it happened with the prince and Luca as well, but I do think the soul eating is a parallel for the classic "mermaids luring sailors" mythology which does have a component of lust.
>>290749990You know what, fair enough
>>290749821That's more or less what the director said in the recent interview. Also implies she almost raped Luca
>>290748631that's a cool reference. Any others like this?
can you guys watch my fishe for me? brb
What's the point of this character?
>>290750078loliconbait
>>290749987to show that "true love" doesn't follow schemes and can't be controlled
>>290750078Making me masturbate, of course.
>>290750105*shotacon
>finally meet your father after hundreds of years>he immediately tells you to stab the one you love the most to deathdamn this dude REALLY hates n*ngens
>>290750078Every anime needs a loli(or shota in this case) for me to self insert
>>290750113>>290750123Calm down Tsukushi.
>>290750069Oops sorry anon this blue haired girl kidnapped her out of nowhere! My bad!
When you think about it, friendship is just love.
Lisa is kind of dumb huh
How come Luca is cuter than all the girls
>>290749594Cinema citrus does it again!
I wish I had a friend like Mari.
>>290748602>impreganteImpregananant??
>>290749594Will Lara kiss Mari while doing it?
>>290750204It's his princely charm.
>>290749141Good on you for being honest, at least?
>>290749987True Love isn’t something you can force.
>>290750271>drawn by a woman?
>>290750078That's Lara, the protagonist
>>290750271>hetbros been self inserting as thisgrim.
>>290750271Lara can keep Mari. Luca belongs to me.
>>290749594The way the tear is falling doesn't make sense, but otherwise this looks really good
Predict who's going to say "Sayonara Lara" and why.
>>290750341She must have MASSIVE zygomatic bones
>>290750362Luca because she left him for Mari
Leave Luca to me
Is this the Hokuto no Ken of yuri?
>>290750362Rigmor
>>290747127There are MANY straight explanations for this.
>>290750418>dead mom is literally called rigor mortisMay this show not be remembered for its subtlety.
>>290750417This is the lycoris recoil of our generation
>>290750436Mari is actually a boy
>>290750362Lowkey might be Lisa
>>290750310I mean, there are guys who are into reverse traps, so I guess it makes sense that there are women into traps.
>>290750402Talk about the show or fuck off
>>290750457Not yet.
>>290750214>not a kiss, just teaseIdolshit
>>290750078The way him being a cross dressing boy was not focused on and was treated as nothing out of normal makes me think it's there to subtly show this world isn't weirded out by non normal gender stuff. That's why when Lara and Mari confess their love, the issue others will have will be that they re a human and a mermaid and not that they are two girls.
>>290750457Does that mean Lara and Luca will have an indirect kiss at the last episode and yurifags will flood Koide's official twitter with death threats?
>>290750517>sisterly love is also true love!>if you want to live with Mari... stab me instead...>*gets stabbed*>sayonara, Lara...
>>290750553>subtlyI think this is the very clear, obvious reading of this character's existence. Maybe it's subtle to shitposters on 4chan who like to believe that Japan is Based Homophobic Nation but it's clearly just the showing playing more with gender.
So what was the point of this? Just a concept promo or something?
Mari is the real prince.
For a moment there I thought my "Lara will try to drown herself" prediction was about to happen.
>>290750656Do you understand the concept of "pilot film"?
>>290750581It doesn't matter because Lara is NOT yuri and it will NEVER be yuri.
It's not yuri until we see clams touching.
>>290749836Actually cute and perfect couple.
Wild how the survival of the entire mermaid race hinges on some girl's hormones.
>>290750706you are pitiful
>>290749191Rent-free: the samefaggot
>>290750078to be corrected
Until they add the "girls love" tag on mal it's not yuri.
>>290748388eupho is literally managing uji and kyoto tourism for over a decade now.
Yuri really actually literally unironically won thoughbeit
>>290749836He belongs in Yoshiya's arms
Does this anime have a lot of fresh/young talent working on it?
>>290750697Still possible that she'll try to sacrifice herself to the fish instead of Mari I'd say.
>>290750779>mal
>>290750833Yes, although majority have already made a name for themselves in the industry but here they have also debited in different roles for the first time.
>>290749869Saved.
>>290747127All the staff already warned you to expect a friendship ending. Also reminder that the director say true love doesn't need to be romantic
Took her long enought to realize it, damn. Kino
>>290750945>Also reminder that the director say true love doesn't need to be romanticGrace stated that.
>hetfags grasping at straws
>>290751015Then it's official. Lara sees Mari as her human sister
>>290749134The incident that killed Lara's mom probably involved humans AND him (like him fighting with Grace's love or something and the mother getting caught int he middle), and he just places the blame entirely on the humans while Grace realizes it was primarily his fault her sister is dead, which is why she fell into being a witch and they are openly hostile. She probably genuinely just wanted to kill him with the last of her strength before he could fuck over Lara too.
>>290751034So you skipped the latest interviews to the staff. Also the main writer seem to dislike yuri. If it was up to her, Lara would marry Luca
Wow Japanese fans are vocal about the new episode and they are not happy. They're discontented whole Lara loving Mari thing. I guess they were holding out hope for a true love ending between Luca and Lara. There's even a petition that's garnered thousands of signatures to have the episode changed. Obviously that wont happen but it shows how unhappy they are.
>>290750150Oh, well sayonara Lara i guess...At least i still have my new window and Gon-chan...
>>290751065Yeah but she had to bend the knee to koide and the suits
>>290750915cute yaya, spin-off soon
>>290751105The suits want a friendship ending. That's commercial. A yuri ending only appeals to yurifags
This is a story about a fight autist and her equally autistic fish wife
So what does Lisa want? Why did she kidnap Lara?
>>290751049So she kept him alive all this time just to kill him?I dunno. I still also don't think what's reflected in her eyes in this scene is the rage of someone who's trying to kill someone.
>>290751091The staff's biggest miscalculation was expecting only neets to watch the show. Women love The Little Mermaid so of couse they were going to like the show but they wanted Lara to get her prince
>>290751103If Utena was a mermaid, she would have belined towards Mari too
>>290751091I still remember a couple on this board being adamant that the Japanese fans who were living in lala land thinking Luca and Lara was how this anime was going to go were right.
>>290751091people have been buying merch of this anyway while waifufag doujin artists will also dick these girls, show has been a success.
>>290751141>you need to find your true love ASAP!>so come and stay with me!what did she mean by this
>>290751141She's waiting for the right moment to seduce Lara but the situation is just too awkward.
>>290751141You've never seen movies about princess? There's always a point when family kidnaps the princess to "protect" her.
>>290750807Hetfags B T F O
>>290751127Naw, a yuri ending appeals to both yuri fans and queer allies. Only homophobes would be pissed off and they aren't needed for success.
>>290751141She wants to be stabbed by Lara's blade.
>>290751159Women have been loving futsusuka and that show is also a success, although the most popular has got to be jaadugar among the normalfags and women.
This is definitely AOTY but these threads are beyond shit.
Hal, make 100 hetship posts in the Lara thread.
>>290751091HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
>>290751232>This is definitely AOTYToo basic to be AOTY personally but it's a good show
>>290750707Won't happen.>>290750750>>290750807Coping + samefagging.>>290750945Yeah, it's the canon ending according to the writers and staff. Yurifags are malding 24/7 about it kek.>>290751214>>290751008>enoughtSEETHING urifagcope.>>290751034Trying too hard.>>290751091>>290751127>>290751159Luca is going to win in the end they just need to be more patient.
>>290751232Seems more often to be the case these days sadly...
>>290751222I'm pretty sure most japs complaining about Lara/Mari are women. It's the same in the west. Just in case, I don't count trans women as real women. They fucking love Lara/Mari
Massquoting is abnormal behavior
>>290749836>>290750737>>290750818Let it go fujofatard Lucas heart belongs to Lara even if he lost
>mass replyingyep mental illness
>kept the merfolk alive for hundreds of years>did not force Lara to do anything, just gently supported her while she learned to live among humans>saved Mari from KotaSorry Lisa, I'll never believe Grace is evil.
>>290751275What competition does it have?
>>290751217I am a homophobe but I like yuri though. Stop being a faggot.
Goddamn, Lara. What if Luca heard all this.
>>290751232Watch Awajima Hyakkei. Warning, it's class S played straight. Emphasis on straight
>>290749869>kinema citrus if yuri loses
>>290751303Women are way more accepting of queer love than men are. It's male selfinsertfags who are throwing a tantrum.
>>290751331I think Rowan is the antagonist.
>>290751341This is symbolic.
>>290751341This killed the hetfags lmao
yep yep here's a (You)
>>290751217Most otakus are chuds. Also women root for Luca. I mean biological women
(You) can't fix her.
>>290751365Japanese women destroyed GWitch official account and they're still mad over Guelsule
>>290749040Kota is so cool
>>290751408>anti Yuri shitposterDoesn't exist. Yurifags are ruining these threads. Everyone with half a brain can see that Luca is the OTP.
>>290751431>ravenousMetroid confirmed in Wednesday's Direct.
Now that the yuri was confirmed, do you all expect a kiss in the end?
>>290751357I did when it was airing. Highbrow yuri is good but episodic will never be AOTY.
>>290751488No way fag
>>290751341I think Lara more in love with mari than mari with lara
>>290751488>yuri was confirmedMental illness. Luca will win.
Kota and Lisa's baby soon.
>>290751488Yes because showing two rejected kisses when Lara failed to find true love and not having a fulfilled one when she finally succeeds would make the storytelling feel incomplete.
>>290750945>>290751015And so did Grandma in response to Lara asking "do I have to go out with him to find true love," while the shot focused on Mari.Of course the translation is shit and uses "him" when the Japanese isn't gendered, so people might miss the obvious implication (even though I think it's obvious either way)Moral of the story is: here's how hetfags can still win
>>290751539...Yoshiya's heart
>>290751475>he says shitpostinglyHet lost. Seethe harder.
Bravo, Nolan
>>290751232There really is almost no good place to enjoy this show. Maybe nijiura or /u/ can talk about it using half a braincell.
>>290751562Sponsors don't care about that. They only care for appealing to the biggest audience possible and yurifags are usually happy with a friendship ending. Not including the staff has been shilling a friendship ending during all week
I swear Luca shippers are just shitposting at this point
>>290751584How can Lara even pass on that? Hes so cute.
>>290751646/u/ has a very low-energy shitposter who tries to bait after every episode but gets deleted.
>>290751573And again with grandma stating that she loves Yoshiya as a valid form of love. People interpreted that as Yoshiya being in the right but we’re clearly supposed to acknowledge the wise old granny’s view as the correct one
>>290750875My current prediction is that Mari and Lara will meet again. After some sad/angry "why did you come?" they will get to have a sweeter moment. Then Lara will start walking backward, creating distance between them. Lara says "I'm sorry, but I don't think I'll be able to make you that cake I promised. Good bye. I love you." Then the dagger chomps Lara.Next the scene changes to some dream space place. Lara can meet her mom's ghost here or something. At some point Lara will change to her child self and ends up meeting child version of Mari, but maybe not be able to recognize her. It will be reveled that Mari guessed something bad was about to happen, quickly rushed to Lara nd got chomped together with her. They will change to their current selves and Mari will give her reply to Lara's confession. Lara will be in shock that Mari actually reciprocated her feelings and the two will stare into each other's eyes for a bit before starting to close in for a kiss. Mari will look really cute and shy. Suddenly Lara gets a flash of the other two failed kisses and backs up slightly in fear, but Mari closes the gap. They kiss and light starts engulfing them. The dagger explodes into light or something, Mari and Lara get out safely and everyone is saved.
>>290751663No waaaaay what gave it away?
>>290751663>at this point
wtf brosdid witchfish died?!?!?!?!?!
>>290751689True love is family
>>290751690The dagger must not disappear before it grants life to Mari and Lara's children.
>>290751347this season taiari, jaadugar, futsusuka, kore kaite. personally found these better, this show was visually the best to watch but the storyline was nothing exceptional.
>>290751721Yes and her eels are acting out her backup plans
I like how discordant the music has gotten.
>>290751689Right, no one needs romance. It's okay that you'll never have a girlfriend, because your family loves you, anon!
I'm not gay but I would fall in love with Luca desu
>>290751813>It's okay that you'll never have a girlfriend, because your family loves you, anon!No, fuck you. I need a gf.
When is the early screening? At this point, we'd better start worrying about real spoilers than vague leaks
>>290751846Next week when episode 11 airs. The screening will show episode 11 30 mins early.
I love that we've come back in a very roundabout way to the plot of the original fairytale with the little mermaid having to stab her true love with a knife. Time to see how she avoids turning into seafoam again, Mari loves her unlike Andersen's prince so that should be the key difference.
>>290747127what a great episode. I'm glad they didnt drag it out and make the whole thing a downer from start to finish.
>>290751689>>290751836Exactly. There are many forms of love, and they are valid, but that doesn't mean they're interchangeable.
>>290751910Futa ending confirmed
>>290751910The show is called goodbye lara, either of them is dying 100%
>>290751846Pretty sure it's next Sunday, these advance screenings are usually done this way.
>>290751689>the wise old granny’s view as the correct oneThen Yoshiya wouldn't try to find love
>>290751745>tairi better story than laralol wat. i guess, if you like watching footage of other people playing street fighter. not really much story to speak of.
>>290751623Fucking kino. This is the romance of the year ngl
>>290751950It begins, everyone get ready for a wave of yaoi fanart
>>290751721nah she's just jelly right now
>>290751623>handle of the sliding door looks like an eye for the big clamCute
>>290751970It's more enjoyable, i would have Lara on the same tier as grown up show.
>>290751950Full time yurifag and occasional fudanshi here, I love this.
>>290747127HOLY YURIBAIT BROSWE WON!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>290752030upvoted mate
>>290750026>Also implies she almost raped LucaWhat?
>>290751155I don't think it was her whole plan or anything. She hated him, but was willing to safeguard the mermaids until the Light was returned. With Lisa and Kota now being increasingly hostile and Lara's second prince attempt also going horribly and her near death while trying to seek Lara, she probably just saw him and was like>You know what, fuck this guy.
>>290750818>>290751312Wrong. Luca's heart belongs to art.
>>290751922Cute sea snek.
>>290751303>I'm pretty sure most japs complaining about Lara/Mari are women. It's the same in the west.This is legitimately the craziest shit I've ever heard. What an immense level of brainrot.
>>290747932lol
>>290752109>Luca's heart belongs tome
>>290752235Yoshiya...
>>290752235I belong to you
I can't wait for the preview tuesday
>>290751365>queerThe only queer here is you, faggot
>>290750362It was already said in the first episode though.
>>290752270do anime do this a lot now where they skip next ep previews and only do it later in the week? are they really that far behind in animation?
Don't use a pure and innocent boy like Luca as a stepping stone for Yuri.Lara, who acted flirtatiously on dates with him even though she didn't really like him that much, what did she think of Luca's pure feelings?He accepted her confession and that was it? What the heck? I guess she just used him carelessly as a stepping stone for Yuri.That's awful, Lara.
Lara will sacrifice herself and turn into a clam again to be reborn in the year 2206. Mari and Luca get married and their great grandchildren will meet Lara. The end
Lala lala la~ both Mari and Lara yearn for a mother's love. It's not romantic it's a homosexual relationship to fulfill that need for maternal love, not sexual.
>>290752310Yes, it's become the standard. It's usually not because they're late on finishing episodes but rather to drive more constant engagement on social media. There are even shows that upload the preview images on one day and the trailer on another.
>>290752326>Don't use a pure and innocent boy like Luca as a stepping stone for Yuri
>>290752310Wasn't this show already done before it started airing? There were shots from this episode in the PVs.
Luca won
God hates Lara
>>290752407Hell yeah he did he’s getting bunghole bashed by Yoshiya later
If Mari fused with Grace
>>290752475Really cool design.
>>290752475Hottest thing I’ve ever seen
>Literally gay colors again
>>290752502wtf
>>290752475which artist is this again?
>>290752310This show in particular not really, But it's normal now as it drives the engagement and keeps the discussion throughout the week and also helps shows that haven't done majority of the episodes before it starts airing which tbf is what most in the season consists of.

What if Luca and Yoshiya have gay sex but Mari and Lara remain as friends? That would be the ultimate trolling
>>290752668that's just LycoReco again down to the interracial yaoi sex
>>290752641lmao
>>290752634I've been here longer than some Anons have been alive but I'm hardly ever on 4chan anymore, thanks. But perhaps more importantly than that, I'm forced to touch grass more often now and know how different genders approach sexuality in the real world.
>>290752668What if Mari and Lara have sex but Lara isn’t adequately vaccinated and contracts several venereal diseases?
It feels like the climax will happen on the same night we're at at the end of the episode but I'm 100% sure the full moon has to factor in again even though it's not the correct night yet. Maybe there will be a short timeskip of a few days after the climax and that's when we see it.
>>290752502It just keeps happening
>>290752718>Mari gets mermAIDS
>>290752718I'm honestly more taken aback by the fact that you think VDs are things you can vaccinate against, especially considering most are caused by bacteria.
>>290752781That's female friendship
