Hey, at least the show delivered on its title.
>>291087777The story was shaping up to have a happy ending and then they pulled this neutral ending shit out of nowhere
>>291087777>[spoilers] (spoilers)I get that not every site has spoiler tags, but surely there's a better way to do this
>>291087777CheckedAs a non-yurifag, I liked it up until the last 5 minutes. The "going off on my own" types of endings usually suck, they don't even try to articulate a reason, there's just some implication of self-growth. I left a good career because I hated not living around my friends so much
>>291087777Her smile and optimism: gone.
>>291087777I guess every notIkuhara anime has to copy Utena's ending without understanding it
>Lara, I'm glad you came to love someone like me. I don't mind sacrificing myself for your sake. But I would love it even more if you used your bullshit mermaid magic to save me. I may have lost Gon-chan and the keepsake from my late mother, but at least I still have you. We can be together forever...
Lara would rather keep trying to become Luca's cum dumpster over and over again than to ever give Mari a chance. Sad.
>>291087777Holy fucking numbers checked LMAO
The whole theme of true love being unconditional only works for family members (e.g., a mother's unconditional love for her children). Romantic love is absolutely conditional. Sacrificing everything for someone and then them leaving you to "find themselves" after 6 months is not romantic, it's retarded.
>>291087777>The girl who was cucked to death
>>291087909*gon(-chan)
>>291087956Koide begs to differ.
In the end we were truly all Goodbye, Laras.
In light of this ending there is only one thing left to do. The fan artists need to all start drawing the nastiest tags: ntr, rape, mindbreak porn they can come up with. Like that guy who draws Komi-san fucking horses because he didn't like the manga
>>291087928Did the epilogue imply Lara and Luca were dating during the six months?
>>291087956>a mother's unconditional love for her childrenAt this point I doubt even that's a thing anymore
>>291088021It's ambiguous but it can be read that way.
>>291087919Mari isn't entitled to have Lara. That's toxic masculinity
>>291088021Yep
>>291088061True. True love is letting your partner become a cumdump for thousands of men.
Would (You) die for fishe?
>>291087777Poor Mari must've been shocked straight after this, if not turned completely asexual.
>>291088095Mari had no way of knowing what bullshit Lara would pull once everything was resolved.
>>291087777>no mom>no Gon-chan>no Laraalone again... alone...
>>291088095Lara's cuter as a mermaid she looks so empty and dull as a human >>291087991
I'm so fucking mad bros
:^)
>>291088123Mari will date her opponent from the tournament finals.
Ok but seriously, if all of you are crying for Mari, why aren't you crying for me as well? I have no friends or gf. I feel empty.
I can't believe I fell for the yuribait, AGAIN.
>>291087777They wanted Mari to be "tough" but really, she comes off as passive and a cuck.The ending ensured the show will have no staying power.
>>291088061that's irrelevant in the face of the fact that Mari can beat Lara to death with her bare hands
I just wanted to see Mari happy, now she's back to square one again, fuck
>>291088194Thanks for the light, retard. Now I'm off to finally live as the human I always wanted to be.
>>291088194>faceless NTR mermaid
Lara will come back to Luca when it's time to settle down.
>>291088208He isn't. There are plenty of good ones, watch more zoom-zoom
>>291088201Go volunteer somewhere.
>>291088227Wrong. Her pet died because of Lara.
Lara wanted to become a real human bean and she did! I real modern 21st century human bean...
>>291088194>:^)what
If you want to watch romance then next time don't bother with a friendship anime, anons. I hope this becomes a lesson for the future
>>291088285The director took inspiration... from real life? Oh my Miyazaki!
>>291087991The face she makes before she takes big kobe man cock.
>>291088305>malesyawn
Why did Lara date Luca after saying Mari is her true love?
>post-ending threads where everyone gets together to poke fun at the trainwreck are the most fun threads in the show's whole runExtremely ironic but I'll take it.
>>291087872This isn't really neutral. Also Lara seems like quite a different person 6 months later.
>>291088150They drained the very color from her hair, yeah.
>Dating for six fucking monthsJesus christ, i don't know how Luca does it
>>291087777CHECKED AND TRUE
>>291088338You are a male.
>>291087991I hate this face like you wouldn't believe. It's completely ruined, without any charm at the very last moment. It's almost like a deliberate metaphor for the show itself.
>>291087956Mari is a total loner. She got attached to Lara like a little sister which is totally believable.
>>291087919>Lara, I want you to abandon chasing human women pussy and instead become a loving wife to some blonde asshole you barely even likeJapanese woman fantasy.
1/10 If they had fired the director and let AI write the script, then simply followed it, they would have ended up with a far better anime.
>>291088364BIG LUCA COCK WON, FUJOS LOST, YURIFAGS LOST.
>>291088378eww
Now that the dust has settled, who of these two red hairs had the biggest woman moment?
>>291088273This, Climber had a peak ending.
Mari should've been a vengeful bitter violent dyke incel like Phos
I SAID STAY BUT YOU TURNED ME AWAYTRIED TO SAY THAT IT WAS MENOW I'M HERE AND I'VE LOST MY WAYNOW I KNOW HOW IT FEELSI'M ALONE AGAIN
>>291088364think of all the lucacum flowing through her fishtank
What the FUCK was that ending? Didn't the director himself say it was Yuri way back in an interview after episode 1????
>>291088338Romance can only happen when a man is involved, yes
>>291088403That would have been fine. Her leaving to "find herself" was the bad part.
>>291088422>Phos?
>>291087956>only worksNo it's treated as special or Christlike if we're talking Little Mermaid. Something you have to work for and achieve while trying to emulate Jesus.
>>291088349It makes it worse that Mari is still a good character at the end that has and still is enduring pointless suffering. She's a suffering sink. We couldn't protect her smile.
>>291088305only hetkings and BLgods get happy endings
>>291088405Why is with zoomies and ai sloppa? Maybe it could improve the ending but for the story in general it would have been 100x times worse.
>>291088364Lucas infinite stamina, goddamn.
>>291087872The ending is outright ominous and raised more plot question than answered. I refuse to believe it's not an elaborate sequel bait and there's no movie announcement or something.
>Are you coming back?>…
>>291088194This is so fucked up. You generally hide the character's face when they aren't being truthful or feel conflicted.So you just have to sit here and accept it because this shows THINKS that it's real and deep so you can't tie a bowtie on everything.
Now can we please admit their "friendship" was horrible? it was simply Lara being boy crazy and Mari "Lol whatev"
>>291087991>>291088380If I wasn't absolutely sure Koide is just pants-on-head retarded by now I would've said you were on to something. Look how close it is to the face Luca saw, of the Lara he couldn't understand.
>>291088416Lara.At least Anne got together with Gilbert at the end and made tons of babies
I'll just ignore the epilogue and it's solid 8/10
>>291088472The OG little mermaid worked because she wasn't human. Sacrificing herself for love was good because she gained a human soul and became one with Jesus.
>>291088194HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
At the start I liked Lara more than Mari.By the end it was the opposite.
>>291088480shut the fuck up chagen, even fujos hate you
Mari deserves better, Lara's a bitch
>>291088452Do you just love slipping that you're yaoi enjoyer?Always obsessed with man especifically, since thi s implies man/man is real romance.
>>291087777I'm fine with Lara going off on her own to become her own person but it just comes off so cold suddenlyalso checked
Mari should have just let Lara drown in episode 2.
>>291088505What a shame, what a waste of time.Their sol moments together were so comfy too
>>291088194Thta shot killed me lol
>>291088216>I can't believe I fell for the yuribait, AGAIN.Don't feel bad, it happens
>>291088452If you can't get penetrated and pregnant than it's not romance
>>291088505arguably they don't even like each other
>>291088505I'll miss these episodes ;_;
Was trying to date Luca again part of the yuri agenda or just bullshit?
The Princes had the right idea, these mermaids are fucking BPD.
>>291088569Love Lab has no girls love tag though
MARI was the only who didn´t score her mermaidcan´t believe philipines could do it!
This is actually an extremely black-pilled anime on humans: Lara is innocent and precious when she is a mermaid and a mermaid with legs. But once she gains a human soul she becomes heartless. So much so I can't even see the same person in her.
>>291088576Correct. Yuri is just girls goofing around, it's not romance.
>>291088405You think a human being wrote this ending?
>>291088194What does it mean?Why did she do it?
>>291088508Glad to hear somebody mention this. I don't know how she goes from picrel to >>291087991 at the end. Isn't it totally a regression?

>>291088036Women are weak to psyop, that's why they were given voting rights in the first place.
>>291088638The face she makes when she sees Kobe man cock.
>>291088498Kino
How did react back in 2001 when the R.O.D ovas aired?
>>291088627AI would write the most basic non controversial ending.
Why did Donut say that the chink summary was shit and the ending was a masterpiece? It turned out to be worse than the chink said
>>291088339There's a difference between romantic baby making love and friendship love, anon. I thought you would know the difference by now
>>291088614Mari could beat the shit out of all of them but she still has no game. Shame.
Mari did literally everything right and then was betrayed by her supposed true love as soon as she became fully human.
>>291087872Feels like the project started with the ending first, but the lead up didn't connect well to that ending set on stone.
>>291088508The line from Luca mentioning he's "finished his masterpiece" before we're met with that soulless face would make more sense if it were pointing that out.
>>291088654Doesn't he have descendants?
Really makes me question what was going on behind the scenes when the plot was so compelling for the entire length of the series just to fumble the bag that hard in the last 15 minutes. Show went from an all timer to a forgettable one off or, at best, cautionary tale
>>291088690Try it now, there's free bots everywhere. Tell the AI to pick up from ep11 and write an ep12.
>>291088486The entire story is atrocious in quality. AI would write a far better story.
>>291088495>sequel baitAsk on xitter about the sequel.
NOBODY likes the ending. All they needed to do was not have her leave for no reason and abandon every character. I haven't seen unified hate like this in a long time, and it's all because nobody can concisely explain what the fuck they just saw.I guess the three Kotasisters won?
>>291088569>(51)post 27th
>>291088684>Road Runner liked Coyote more than Lara did Mari
>>291088720That's what humans do. Rowan was right all along, even about his daughter once she became human?
well the new form is cool I guess
>Sorry Mari but if I have to see Luca's fuckass painting of me one more time I'm gonna lose it
>>291088796Rowan should have put Lara out of her misery instead of slapping her human form off (which also saved her from becoming foam). He was vindicated in the end.
>>291088766Not really, most for the show was better than what ai could write. Why is your generation so obsessed with it?
>>291088769She loves humans, mari is her true love who is anchor for her love for humans. Luca is her sexual and romantic love. She is now going to live on her own and gain new experience thats it
So seems like a good chunk of people are not fans of the ending on the west side of things. How are the japs reacting?
>Sorry Mari but if I don't taste human cock I'm gonna lose it
>true loveDON'T NEED IT>lightDIFFERENT FROM THE OTHER PRINCESSES>lucaCOUNTLESS TIMES>mari...
>>291088642Who are they asking money from with episode 12?
>The yuribait anime turned out yuribait as predictedThis meltdown already made up for the lack of PO episode today
Why did Director-kun lie about there being yuri?
Well, in the end Lara was able to become a heartless human
>>291088835A normal person wouldn't leave their true love
>>291088698Yep, it's been spelled out so many times by now.

>>291088908Except Utena "left" because she was impaled by the million swords of man's hatred, and Anthy is leaving everything to FIND Utena. Lara is like Anthy leaving Utena to find...The World?

>>291088947Aot reference?
>>291088619Yeah they were clearly trying to be deep by making Lara mature and cryptic as a human but it just made her seem weirdly cold.
>>291088994Which ending was worse: this or AOT?
Lara: I'm sorry Mari but I must search the world and have unprotected sex with homeless men in kobe so I can regain my love for humanity
I’m going to point out a grim fact here.Director Koide has said a great deal on X-Space. He has repeatedly spent long stretches rambling on streams, filling in the gaps in an empty story and proudly revealing hidden lore.Naturally, Japanese viewers have generally been critical of this behavior. The irony is that the director himself is the one who drastically cut down the exposition in the script, yet he then goes on streams to compensate for the lack of explanation, revealing hidden details that are absolutely impossible to understand simply by watching the work, and seems delighted with himself as he does so, like a child. Foreign viewers who cannot understand the Japanese audio are completely unaware of this.
>>291088929>No mother>Loses pet>Loses funny best friendAll she has left is her brother.............and grandma and father. Nah, she'll be fine
This ending feels exactly like that fakeout ending in Kaguya. That's not a good thing at all.
>Lara becomes a promiscuous partaker of the race her family doesn't like just to get back at themJust like in real life!
Mari claimed in this episode that the promise was for when she became a professional, but the actual promise was that she would become world champion. Literally backpedaled her own dream KEK
>>291087361Fuck you, the set pieces were all here and it was clear what it was focusing on, it's just that they forgot to write an actual good ending that came as a conclusion of everything
Jesas, I even feel bad for yuritards, every single time their delusions get shattered to pieces, anyways 5/10 anime, great animation shitty story.
>>291088364He's autistic but has a big dick
>>291088851They got your money and attention already tho
>>291088645Well, that's fine an all. The question is: Why would that happen after Lara realized her feelings for Mari?
>>291088835She doesn't give a shit about Luca, she took him on new dates and then dumped him when the dates were over. It's a "Lara is a sociopath" ending.
>>291089019If we need outside sources to parse anything then it's just shit.
What an insurmountable amount of love for penises does to a mf
>>291088505It was Lara being a fucking idiot and Mari wrangling her but having fun anyway, fun to watch.
>>291089014At least AOT ended with multiple romances
>>291089036What about Luca ?
>>291089074>they got your moneyI didn't buy anything from the series though and this ending made me reconsider buying any merch.
>>291089019Cutting exposition down isn't an issue as long as the subtext and visual storytelling are clear enough to make up for it. It worked well for the vast majority of the show, but for this ending they lost the plot completely since nobody is able to justify Lara's behavior. Not that having her explain herself in dialogue would've made it better, it's a deeply disfunctional ending on a conceptual level.
>>291089102He got to fuck Lara more than once at least
>>291088979>>291088908The key difference is that Anthy leaves to find Utena. Not just walk away.Even though Utena's main theme could actually support it being a simple walk away from the Academy. Lara's show sure as shit can't.
>>291089102Got a taste of mermaid pussy.
>>291088929This show fucking hates Mari. It feels almost spiteful. Did a boxing dork hurt the writer in the past or something? She just wanted to hang with her fish and win some fights. Instead she gets literally dragged around just to suffer. Anything she shows the slightest interest in smacks her in the face. I don't even blame her for being so stoic
>Sayonara Lara 7.99>Chou Kaguya-hime! 8.45
>>291088994>Ymir retardedly leaves Historia like Lara retardedly leaves MariAbsolute yuribait cinema.
Weird way to end a romance anime
>>291088364>Luca confirmed straight
>>291089068>great animationMore like great art style. Also don't feel anything for yuri tards, they've ruined plenty of older anime original threads.
>>291087777tl;dr of this one?I didn't watch it, was it another yuricel humilliation ritual?
>>291089120>When you see Mari's heart fully break
>>291089120>le NTR face
>>291089131WE MUST GO LOWER
The ending kind of reminds me Nettaigyo, but at least that one had a buildup and reasons for it to end the way it did. This one doesn't explain why they have to basically break up.
>the ending was so bad the threads are the most peaceful they've ever been with everyone either complaining about or clowning on the endingGrim, but it's honestly refreshing seeing a good 95% of people online openly admitting this ending fell flat.
>>291089019“Sorry viewers, you thought the visual symbolism and hints that you were seeing were what I was referring to. But this was a trick! The REAL symbolism requires you to think even beyond that surface-level exploration of the show’s visuals.”
>>291087991
>>291089131Someone's spamming huh.
>>291089101The AnniexArmin was soo good.
>>291089014AoT, no competition. Sayolara is ultimately just a humble advertisement for a Japanese town and bakery. For AoT to drop the ball like it did because the author got hooked on MCUslop of all things, it's a completely different league of shamefur display.
>>291089019Evangelion is full of lore left out of the anime and people love it
>>291088364How can anyone still call this yuri after this? holy shit.
>>291088872A normal person doesn't bum around in her friend's home for years as a part timer.
>>291089136That light? a homeless man in kobes cock
They shouldn't let a director like him make anime. It's a waste of resources.
>I want to live in a world with you>I want to live with you>proceeds to leave with no explanation>refuses to elaborate furtherWhat type of ending is this?
Honestly the most 30 y/o woman ending to any anime I have ever seen
>>291089136imagine your girl breaking up with you and saying this
Ngl I wouldn't mind being used as a human flashlight for a mermaid queen.
Being a good writer is writing an ending that makes it clear you have deep contempt for your audience.
So, should we update this chart with Luca?. His existence is the reason the yuri was denied. There have been plenty more yuri slayers since this was last edited but the final spot was still missing
>>291088739Hans Christian Andersen died a virgin.
This anime tarnished Shiga Prefecture's reputation.
>What will happen if Lara tries to suck some Kobe man's penis? Her tails is going to grow back again?
>>291089129>Did a boxing dork hurt the writer in the past or something?Koide's self-insert was the little kid Mari punched on the playground.
>>291087991what an ugly hoe
>>291089076I was sarcastic it was never comphet lol it was made up by the yurifags. No one forced her to fall in love with the original prince for it to be comphet in the first place
>>291089237Yes, Lara kept trying to ride his penis until the very last minute
>>291089237Yeah he's a yurislayer.
>>291089194I have my fair share of problems with it but overall yeah, it warmed my heart
I have not seen the ep. Give it to me straight lads, did they cuck out? Is it hibike all over again?
Grace and Rigmor dying for literally nothing is probably the worst part of the ending.>Live for love and not the laws>they literally don't
>>291089131Both are as irrelevant as the website you are referring to fucking mentally ill troon
>>291089237Luca is far from the biggest issue this anime has. Not being yuri is far from the biggest issue this anime has.
>>291089210That’s because the main story was so incredibly unique and cool that everyone wanted to seek out the lore on their own.
>certain "places" incredibly buttmad that it was all yuribaitlmaoresetera is seething so hard it's hilarious
>>291089129
>>291089019>He has repeatedly spent long stretches rambling on streams, filling in the gaps in an empty story and proudly revealing hidden lore.Give me the tldr.
>>291089211Being cucked by stories is normal for yurifags
>>291089247Would be funny if this series cut down on Shiga's tourism.
>>291089146It's a humiliation ritual to anyone expecting a coherent conclusion of any sort and it will probably circle back to being humiliating for the studio itself as it cements into anime viewers' memories.
>>291089271Lara fucks Luca for 6 months while Mari watches
>>291089131Kaguya is infinitely more successful than Lara ever hoped to be, MAL rankings are pointless either way
>>291089223It's a middle finger to the audience
This is why I watch anime 3 seasons after it has aired. That way I don't have to waste my time if the ending is shit, I also get the BD releases, and when it's actually time to watch all the anime I decided to watch, I'd already have forgotten all the spoilers by then, since a long time would've passed already
>>291088349I'm not yet sure if the 12 weeks of Lara with /a/ join the ranks of WEP, Franxx and Dyke from Mercury (stolen from an anon), also because I dodged the threads the past 2 weeks because of the leaks, but ehhhh it was some sort of eggsperience
>>291089212I've heard of a few cases
>>291089241Holy fuck I am better than him
>>291089291Good. Those abhorrent dysgenic freaks do not deserve a moment's happiness.
I told you it was a friendship end. It wasn't even a good friendship end but still
I can't believe they created a worse main character than Nishikigi Chisato.
>>291089280Nta but I thought eva was lame as fuck, just worse gundam.
/u/ is about to commit collective suicide, lol
>>291089338I sincerely doubt those are normal people.
>>291089276It's mediocre as fuck, but obviously it was being shilled by retarded yuritards and they were ready to say that it's a masterpiece in case it ended being yuri, they always do the same shit.
>>291089352Friendship end but your friend is a sociopath that doesn't care about your feelings at all. Truly an anthem for 2026.
>>291089320>infinitely more successfulThe movie made 17 million in the box office. It really wasn't that big of a success.
Man it's gonna be a rough week for almost everyone huh
so uh was this a good show?doesn't seem to have too much of an audience
>>291089340Andersen seemed to be a volcel though. They say Andersen hired prostitutes but he didn't fuck them but instead talk with them for half a hour. I think being a virgin made him feel closer to God
>>291089276Wow anon, daring aren't we? No shit the biggest issue is what people have been repeating already.
So what was said last week about Japanese watching the pre-screening and crying tears of joy was true? Why tears of joy?
I wonder for how long the schizo is going to keep bringing up dick. He's been obsessed with the size of Luca's dick, talks about homeless dick etcIt really sounds like he really wants to mongle cocks
>>291089062There was no focus there was floundering.Get it, floundering?
So now not even Luca can satisfy her? She's going places fucking random people?
At least kaguya ended with the brother fucking the trap. Luca is still balls deep in mermaid pussy what the fuck kek
>>291087777
>>291089379Yes, the show would have been good if it had stuck to its guns and didn't pull a shitty, unrelated ending out of its ass in the last 10 minutes. That's typically how storylines work.
>>291089421This is a modern story for modern women. It's not for you, chud.
>>291089395Just imagine how the theatre stink after Kaguya showings.
>>291089421Petition to rename this anime NTR Lara?
APOLOGIZE TO CIRCUS NOW
>>291089276yurifags standards are are literally the lowest of the low yeah
>>291087991>>291089183Nice. A new addition to the collection.
>>291089421She's following your example
>>291089418I'm not your boogeyman this scene >>291089421just heavily implies Lara has a deep craving for homeless dick.
>>291089352It wasn't friendship though.
>>291089406Ending took an odd direction but overall yeah it was pretty good.
>>291088443investors intervened
>>291089442What ending was it building up?
>>291088768Why the fuck do you care about X?
>>291089421Lara learned to use google and found blacked
>>291089271It's worse honestly. I would prefer a hibike situation. Imagine if Kumiko proposed to Reina at nationals, then after the timeskip she was the one who left for America, and the show ends with both Shu1 and Reina in shambles. That's what you're in for
>>291089395It’s clearly doing well enough to get a rerelease in theaters, a fully new spin off manga, etc.
I still don't get how Luca fits into the story, you could replace Luca's episodes with pure SoL shit and nothing would change
>>291089442The show was never yurishit, you are just a demented faggot with autogynephilia
>>291089407>I think being a virgin made him feel closer to GodCan't really find any fault with that desu
>>291089472Not only are you delusional, you also really do want to get gangbanged by homeless bums. Live your dream.
>>291089406much better than the threads would lead you to believe, solid 8 all the way through
>>291089488You tell me after Mari was confirmed to be Lara's "true love". No, though, I'm sure that was aiming for the "abandoned by heartless mermaid 'friend'" ending.
>>291089481Lara and Mari's friendship literally saved the day. But later Lara decided to travel the world to find herself or something
>>291089164Weirdly apt comparison, I agree in the sense that Nettaigyo spent its entire runtime doing the legwork the ending of Lara probably thinks it did in regards to the relationship between the two leads.
>>291089419Nope, there was focus. On Lara interacting with the world. The ending fucked it up but the focus was there.
>>291089395It was more popular than Lycoris Recoil at its peak, and compared to this flop even more so.
>>291088495Yeah it's like she knows something we don't. Either OVA, movie or manga sequel.
>>291089524Not your boogeyman schizo, Lara fucks random homeless men and dated Luca for SIX MONTHS
which anime is a hate letter to the fans
>>291087777Is it me or the ending makes Lara look like a complete bitch to Mari? She didn't explain why she was leaving.
average hetfag be like >>291089494
Even Sonny Boy's ending was better than this.Why are modern anime that take art direction seriously so cursed?
>>291089492Because that's where the director is
>>291089136That was brutal
>>291089553Sayonara Lara
Why do japanese writers love to bait yuri so much?
>>291089508Obligatory fleshlight.
>>291089570There was nothing wrong with Sonny Boy ending. Only self-inserters are mad
>>291089527>Lara's "true love" (as a friend)*fixed
>>291089553Shingeki no Bahamut S2.
>>291089570Sonny boy ending was goo but it had an anti-escapism message
>>291089610TRVKE
>>291089611With a friend like Lara who needs enemies?
>>291089546You've had at least one in your mouth for six months? Impressive
>>291089459The whole AIDS and tournament plotline is kind of dumb but there's no way the ending will be worse than this.
>>291089472>she wants to see the world after being stuck in one palace all her life then dead for 200 years then stuck in one city >OMG dick dick dick dick dick DICK!!!Unironically get help.
>>291089585Most otakus are chuds
>>291089585Because everyone knows the anime is normal but yuritards that get easily baited, tldr they get both audiences.
>>291089585Same reason they bait fujos, easy money but unlike yuritards fujos know they're getting scammed
>>291089395Theater run is not the best metric for Kaguya's success, it's been on Netflix since day one. Look at stuff like the 100k+ sales of both the novel and the BD.
>>291089643I know it's hard to admit, but Lara is simply a slut
>>291089585Luca was baited even harder but you will ignore that.
>>291089556Also to Luca who she keeps leading on
>>291089643The cock carousel stops for no woman
>>291089556Nah, it's a common complaint. They knew what they wanted to happen but not how to properly sell it.>>291089570Returning to reality in itself is one thing but Sonny Boy is so fucking grim with it.
>>291089508Executive demand for a "love interest" being in the story. So he's there, but is literally useless.
Shipping aside the ending was adequate. Just watch/ read Watatabe if you want yuri mermaids. There's even a little mermaid inspired character and the "prince" is an insane cuck.
>>291089360Chisato was based and singlehandedly carried LR on her back and tits
>>291089641>>291089643Why are you projecting your and laras lust for cock onto me?
>>291089680She dated Luca multiple times tho.
>>291089670Fujos don't get anime dude. Literally zero. Meanwhile yurifags get multiple shows every season.
Lara's the kind of girl that will dump you by text without a second thought. What awful "character development".
My version was cooler
>>291089722Fujos have that dogshit kyoanus one and the other one with the tranny hermaphrodite yakuza dude
>>291089693>but Sonny Boy is so fucking grim with it.Yeah it's grim but media with anti-escapism messages has been like that since forever. Idk why /a/ had so many melties about it. Are all people here neets?
>>291089679>>291089689Just admit you're a homosexual and go to >>>/cm/
>>291089585At this point the bait is so predictable they could subvert expectations by actually just giving us a yuri ending. Japs need to evolve, its 2026 yuri is not controversial anymore.
>>291089719And? It went nowhere that's why it's even worse bait.
>hetfags talking about cock nonstopi'm noticing
>romance anime has a less satisfying lesbian romance than the BanG Dream! vtuber spinoffembarrassing. im sorry for your loss, larafags
>>291089643You're getting baited anon. The shitposter(s?) pretty damn obnoxious though.
>>291089611The best part is that they were STILL baiting romantic subtext in this episode when Kota says he also knows what it feels like to love someone.
>>291089752Jesus that KyoAni show may be the worst flop this season.
>>291089756>>291089764You can never remove 6 months of Lucas cum from Laras.
>>291089533I think you need to read what you wrote and then realize you can't get much more unfocused than the entire fucking world.And that's not even the measure of what the main theme was so whatever.
>>291089764>stop talking about what Lara's been sucking
>>291089719She keeps coming back to date him, dunno at least he gets to bang her now and then unlike Mari.
>>291089719>traumatized her>drew a terrible painting of her>went to see fireworkswow
>>291089764It's all one guy.
>>291089585Yuribait is sexy i guess but when it comes to get their shit together is all about true love aka hetero love
>>291087991DON'T SAY GOODBYE
>>291089805If a woman keeps coming back to date you, it means she wants it.
>the people portrayed as villains throughout the series were actually right all alongIs this a good way to tell a story?
Lara just fucked another ojisan btw
>>291089740Your ending was better
What if Mari was a guy
>>291089770And chinese villainess, and Tekken playing girls, and kot witches, and even goddamn Precure.
>>291089800You know what I meant with "the world", don't be disingenuous. > the main theme was so whatever.The main theme was her learning about love and it was focused on that+ what was happening with the rest of the mermen.
>>291089734Lara is just some BPD whore. She feels threatened by Mari because she is a rock while Lara herself is quicksand. I bet Lara can't even fuck like BPD bitches.
Every end of season we get to see the local yurischizo melting down, this retard has been here doing the same since 2020 and he sitll doesn't know how to tell appart yuri from yuribait.
>>291089846Heterosexual love is the true love, Larpianism is just an excuse for unfuckable women to feel special about their status.
>>291089863
>>291089796Still better than Lara AND it has actual romance
>>291089869Everyone would be even more pissed off. We expect yuribait endings because yuripigs will eat any slop. hetbait endings are the worst.
>>291089846Movie killed Gridman BTW.
>>291089677These threads are so fucking hilarious lmao
>>291089677Holy cope
>>291089406The plot is basically non-existent and the only goal any of the characters have ends up getting (partially?) rejected in the end, but the outcome is the same anyway. It tried to be too many things and failed to really achieve anything in the end.On the other hand, it had a great and consistent aesthetic, with a few very well animated moments. The soundtrack is also genuinely fantastic.
>>291089756Hey, not my fault Lara is an unfaithful selfish bitch
>Biggest source of support and comfort Laura has had in her lives>The time she spent with Mari literally makes her want to keep living in a world that caused her suffering in the past instead of killing herself again>"Bye'No really, the fuck?>>291089764Really makes you think, huh?
>>291089863No indication that every mermaid is like that, Lara is just pure evil. She's also a terrible human by the end so she validates Rowan's POV as well.
damn, spics are mad
>>291089932cope
Kota won
>>291089764We've known that hetschizo is a homosexual and loves yaoi. His spergout here is pretty pathetic though, he just keeps repeating COCK DICK CUM and nauseum. No variety at all.
>>291089796Nah that's Lara BY FAR
>>291089677>Sorry, Mari, I have plans for next week. You also don't have to keep contacting me. I'll call you when I'm able to hang out.This is your heroine for this season.
The posts are really repetitive, is this the best of modern /a/?
>>291089907This is KyoAni? Looks quite flaccid.
>>291089938We were all struck by a smooth criminal
>>291089169>the yurischizos are slain and we finally get together in comfy post-credit threads>but at what cost
yuri is the gayest shit, even gayer than yaoi.
>>291089938Transforming from a cute fishy fairytail girl into a real ningen (not just potion magic life Lisa/Kota) turned her evil. Rowan was right all along
>>291089985At least ACK was more creative than the new batch of yurischizos, everything is worse nowadays.
>already schizoposting and projecting This anime really obliterated /u/tards
>>291089933>with a few very well animated momentsIt has pretty good small character animation through the whole show.
My gut feeling spared me from watching garbage yet againYatta!
>>291089863The Japanese seem to like the trope.
>>291089708Watatabe is ugly as fuck with janky animation and boring leads. The "horror" elements are fucking weak too
>>291089938I doubt your kind has the comprehension to understand the concept of "thinking".
>>291090013 (me)I'm Lucabro btw
Her heart was breaking apart when she was leaving Luca
>>291089863>>291090035Something about them antagonists being right, but not correct.
Why does yuribait get such insane and rabid reactions from all sides, while fujobait series have shippers and plotfags existing comfortably side by side? You don't get psychotic shitflinging and melties for something like Nippon Sangoku
>>291090001It looks like an evareg kyoani show which is above average for anime as a medium
How is it Madoka ends with the leads forever separated, no kiss, no requited confession, but that's considered a yuri classic? What's the difference?
>>291090048Yeah she was clearly more in pain for leaving Luca than Lara.I'm sure she'll miss his dick, that she rode for 6 months while Mari was left alone waiting for her at home.No worries though, I'm sure she'll find other dicks soon enough
>>291088555Trips AND dubs
>>291090067Because fujos just want to see men get raped by another men
0/10What the fuck are those last 10 minutes. Umm your mermaid family maybe will woke up soon...? who cares about them, right. Where's Kota? Is he safe is he alright? Was Luca a reincarnation or not? Did Lara just egoistically used Mari to gain legs back, and she's actually doesn't like her? No goodbye hug, no farewell kiss? just a silence after a question.
>>291090067Culture warring browns don't watch fujoshit because no one really wants to see guys making out. Or run the risk of.So they come to shit up yuri and related threads.
>>291090067Because are more used to yuri going canon, while fujos are used to bait. But fujos don't fuck with anime as much anymore since very shows pander to them and the BL anime that does exist doesn't have anything for plotfags.
>>291090067What else is there to discuss about Lara after this ending? It satisfies no kind of viewer.
>>291090081Nobody thinks this
>>291090039Oh, I'm gonna show you something ugly as fuck.*zip
>>291090045Luca is straight though
>>291090067Because yuritards are insufferable troons while fujos are normal woman obsessed with hot men, if they weren't as insufferable as they are no one would give a shit.
>>291090081Because that was a high stakes well executed epic instead of a meandering drama like this
>>291090067Fujos are more civilized and speak with their wallets. Simple as.
>>291089835Yep, all me.
>>291090067its troons
>>291090081Madoka anime did it masterfully well is the thing.
If you're so heterosexual how come you don't have a girlfriend?
>>291090081Madoka was masterfully written. And it was 15 years ago.
>>291089459>>291089642I'm hella worried for it too though
Well, it had a great soundtrack. Shame about the final 5 minutes
>>291090067>shippers and plotfagsThere is no conflict to be had here, retardPointless post
>>291088769I’m glad I ended up liking Kota and Lisa more even if Kota ended up being male after a mistake
>>291090067But that doesn't happen at all fujos fight with and have intense reactions to endings nobody talks about it though, just look at gacha and shonen shit. There're fujos who rabidly thought bakudeku was a thing, there're fujos that say that gacha males like alhaitham are canonically gay.There were bakudekufags saying they'd kill themselves after BNHA ended and we still have narusasufags claiming naruto is closeted gay man that hates hinata
>>291090067incels aren't into fujobait
>>291090048Did they...?
>>291090138>>291090128I looked at /tv/ threads from around the time madoka aired and most people were shitting on the ending, saying that people predicted it easily.
Sayonara Lara, you bitch, may you get shanked in an alley
Not the most thrilling ending, but Lara is beautiful.
Completely, totally, endlessly mogged by Kaguya
>>291090155We broke up because she was BPD like Lara.
>>291090155You are going insane man, just stop, you are embarrassing yourself, not even a sub 70IQ pajeet would say something so dumb.
Who was their target audience with this ending?
Maybe leaving isn't that big a deal for Lara from her mermaidian long-life perspective.She only looked up from her phone when she realized Mari was getting emotional.Man, I don't know.
>>291090048It's so obvious she liked Luca romantically. Compare this to the absolute no reaction she had with Mari.
>>291090199I wish there were more shots of this design. She looks amazing
>>291090206Guess I'll rewatch it to hopefully forget this blunder.
>>291090155Do you have a girlfriend, fellow heterosexual?
>>291090215A bad ending is artsy be definition. /a/ posters just aren't art literate and so don't get it.
>>291090081It pulled it off better and by that time normalfags didn't have that much yuri anime to pick from.
>>291090081It's not.
>>291090199Until she turns into this soulless bitch >>291089120.
>>291090215Schadenfreudefags.
>>291090215hetero women
>>291088853I think I might end up watching this>>291088929That’s what makes me sad but she really isn’t alone, she’s got her family and her boxing club. Matter a fact I hope she and her ribaru date
>>291090190People became kinder to the original madoka ending with time because the reactionary retards calmed down and because rebellion was a much worse ending
>>291089912>killedIt has literally just concluded the story. There's nothing left to say, storylines closed, everything is resolved.
Another yurislayer rises...
>>291089912>Killed Gridman>Still getting merch every week and even a sequel
Ok but how do we ask for more retro character designs? This looked more appealing than any west/east animated series I've seen in the last 10 years.
>>291090155They live in India and Malaysia, occasionally Pakistan. They were born to be incels.
>>291090190/tv/ has shit tasteThe /a/ threads were where everyone was, and it was near universally praised by /a/nons. The earthquake and tsunami hitting while ep 10 was airing, and the subsequent delay really got the board going crazy.
>>291090252Hetero women wanted Lara to marry Luca.>>291090215I think they were going for the female normie audience that love Frozen and modern Disney movies that reject romantic love for self-actualization
>>291090244It is, and you should slit your own throat.
>>291090217I can't even engage with it on the level of it being a story. My only reaction is>man what the fuck is wrong with the director
>I want to live in this world that has you in it!>I..... I....!!>I dont care about true love!!Literally what the actual fuck was that??
>>291090262Or more likely most elitist /a/ fags just left.
>>291090274Remember when yurifags were saying Luca was gay for Yoshiya?
>>291090155saar has no game
>>291090215strong independent women who don't need no brown tomboy school girl
>>291090206Lol
>>291090283they're everywhere, most i've seen are spics and indogs
>>291090312Lara is a strong independent mermaid that need no romance. Reminder that Japanese women fucking love Frozen
>>291090258>she’s got her family and her boxing clubPic related. This series had a lot of poignant criticism of relationships only for them to mean nothing in the end.
>>291090291No one wanted Lara to marry Luca.Well, except maybe male incels, but no one cares about them.
>>291090329>muh random interview no one cares about
>>291088698True, friendship is more important and passionate, and girls should marry their best friends rather than their boyfriends.
>>291090215Normal people?
>>291090328Have you ever noticed the most misandrist types are the biggest cock-hungry whores?
>Bait ends as bait>Luca and Lara fuck for 6 monthsNice yuri anime you go there.
>>291090312Yeah that was the moment where it felt like everything flipped.
>>291090329Well yeah. The director said many times Kaguya is about female friendship but yurifags like to ignore what the creators say. Goodbye Lara's cast and staff were saying for weeks that Lara was about female friendship but yurifags refused to listen
>>291090372Normal people like shitty endings with psychopathic characters?
>>291090306Same
>>291090357Incel website, you'd better tread lightly sis.
>>291090321Those were fujos
>>291090258>I think I might end up watching thisGet to it already. Finale si two episodes away
>>291090357Yurifags live in denial as usual. With just two episodes, LaraLuca became as popular as LaraMari. It was women vs transwomen
>>291090388Was this ending your idea of a good friendship ending?
>>291090312Weirdest setup for a 'stand on your own two legs' ending I have ever seen.
More like 'So Long, Floppa' lmao
Not I think that Cinema Citrus realized they need chinese money and backpedaled with yuri ending.
OSOTSOverrated Shit of the Season
I've been waiting 12 weeks for this meltdown, nice and salty.Good anime btw, 6/10
>>291090417No, they were yurifags. It was a symbolic castration of Luca to keep him away from Lara. It's like Sasusaku fangirls shipping Naruhina for keeping Naruto away from Sakura or in a western setting, Zutara fangirls shipping Taang to keep Aang away from Katara.
Did the 6 month timeskip take them into 2027?
>>291090449It doesnt even have a Chinese release.
>>291090449Well now they've got a horde of angry chinks so no winners there either.
>>291090428I never said it was a good friendship ending. Just that it was a friendship ending
>>291090417It was obviously yurifags because they wanted to protect laramari
>>291090376Not as hungry for them as yourself, however.
>>291090461>a narutardI knew it
You know what, at this point just a straightforward hetero love story about a girl finding a true love and rejecting the hollow modern world values would feel like a very refreshing ending.
>>291090507that's not SUBVERSIVE anon
Okay but why was Leo such a cute little shit?
>>291090372Sayonara Lara: The anime that in its last episode tried to not offend anyone and thus offended everyone. Remember, this anime is a lesson to any writers, never be milquetoast when writing. If you have a theme, you go all the way. You don't cater to "normal people."
>>291090484Yuri can't be legally distributed on China because the CCP
>>291090498not these ones
>>291090492I hope she sees this...
>>291090530All the way was lara loving the world, anon. There was never, EVER, any homosexual romance in it, not even a hint.
>Mari > Star > Hoshi>Lara > Sea > UmiCant believe it was My first love's kiss reference after all. Bravo Iruma
>call your show Sayonara Lara>presumably Lara leaving is going to be baked into the show's DNA>don't bother to even come up with a compelling dramatic reason for Lara to leave>have her just fuck off because it's mandatoryHonestly terrible. This is a fundamental problem, the show has to get this right but it's completely phoned in.
>>291090507>hetero love story about a girl finding a true loveAren't there a lot of those? Most hetero stories have virgin girls, so rejecting modern values by default.
>>291090461>>291090490No they were in the fujo thread that happens every thursday, pretty sure one of them was the trapfag that constantly posts korosensei
>>291090492I bet you felt really good by defending the dignity of women here.
>>291090542and?
>>291090566is that entertaining? I picked up an epub a while back but I haven't touched it yet
>>291090567The title drop was already in episode 1. There was no reason to even have a forced separation at the end. But I kind of agree with the person that said this ending may have been written first and they came up with the rest of the show leading up to it. But it just doesn't work. The ending makes no sense with the rest of the show.
>>291090380who is this girl?
>>291090217>She only looked up from her phone when she realized Mari was getting emotional.That shit had me furious. There's no need for them to interrupt the climactic goodbye with a fucking text to establish that she's getting an apartment. It feels hateful to have Mari slowly crumble while Lara just stands there on her damn phone. And sure, if you're going for the whole "moving on" message that's fine, but fucking say it to her then. Obviously, the viewer can figure it out, but leaving Mari hanging, literally pleading for an explanation is cruel. You can just not write those lines. It's masturbatory to use the main love interest to point out yet again that Lara's motivations are contradictory.
>>291090552Wrong
>>291090461>>291090490nice try fujofoids
>>291090542I've watched at this point close to a dozen Yuri chink anime, you lying faggot.
Watch real yuri and fuck off
>>291090478I was wondering about this.When Grace sad "live for love, not for laws"the Traditional and Simplified Chinese subs went for two different interpretations of 掟.
>>291090525Cute girls(male) deserve to be this cute
Glad I did the correct thing, shame they wasted that nice art style in this shit.
>>291090625I was expecting an ending that might be flat, but I was surprised by how mean-spirited it felt.
>>291090542That's just an excuse. Some baihe manage to depict hardcore sex.
Absolute dogshit ending. People complain about editors in manga but clearly the writer for this anime needed one to hit him over the head.
>>291090565Anon, it could've been hetero romance with Luca. But it was clear that she was supposed to find her true love from all foreshadowing. Her loving everyone is a cop out and not how the source material was, which they claim to be following the spirit of.
>>291090648Stop shilling your flop nobody cares about.
Here's /u/ having a melty, enjoy.>>>/u/4600547
FUCK MARI
>>291090625Mari will get a better girlfriend that won't treat her like shit.
>>291090644Have they started inserting ai in them or not?
>>291090709Mari is straight. She's just going through a phase
>>291090704the girls aren't even that cute to have so much fanart desu
Would a Lala & Mari sitting on their balcony chatting away and ending on a "Okaeri, Lara :)" from Mari have been better, if their relationship would still be ambiguous?
>>291090067You haven’t been near enough fujoshits bless you
>>291090738Bet half of them are AI generated.
>>291090449chinks love yuri. like half of bushiroad's annual revenue is from merchandising bang dream lesbians to chinese
>>291090691Editors and writers can be good or bad. Stop thinking in absolutes.
>>291090718No, they aren't retarded.
>>291090732Mari was groomed into a lesbian by an evil mermaid and then abandoned for the lulz.
>>291090625If I were charitable, I'd think that this specific instance of oddness was intentional,almost like some writer is saying "Look! Lara's obviously not 100%! This isn't a happy ending!!Please look forward to 'KON'NICHIWA, LARA."
It's been a while since I hated a character as much as I do Lara, that selfish, ungrateful, sociopathic slut
>>291090756wrong.
>>291090694Koide is probably a chud like most otakus and lesbianism is just a phase
I dropped this in the second episode because that shit felt gay. Not for sure gay but there was definitely a possibility. Also, the show itself was boring. Glad I was right
>>291090738I liked Mari's design, more than most anime/manga/visual novel girl designs released in the last 5 years.
>>291090618Very good read. Probably as painful as this show in term of ending.But at least Iruma manage to turn my hatred towards Umi into something positive in the end.
>>291090578High quality seasonal anime original ones and not some isekai/otome shit to boot? Nearly nonexistent.
Sayonara, guys.
>>291090704Kek, they are still coping with a way to spin the show as "yuri" even when they got utterly destroyed. Poor pitiful creatures.

>I don't want to make a typical yuri show>I don't want to make a typical yuri show>I don't want to make a typical yuri show>I don't want to make a typical yuri show
>>291087777glad i didn't watch it and waited.
>>291090183you have yurifags doing the same thing for gachas claiming there are "implied lesbians" in there while the same company baits the waifu with the male mc
>>291090763Mari can heal now. Luca is available. He's rich, handsome and according to Lara he has a big cock.
>>291090067You don't get anything for something like Nippon Sangoku. also >>291090751
Seeing so many people pity Mari makes me think that she was actually a well written character that most people started to really empathize with
So long and thanks for the fish?
>>291090759I never said they where good or bad, dumbass.This ending however is dogshit that pleases nobody.
>>291090810Someone make another thread. I need to seethe more.
>>291090243Madoka wasn't better, you just had the long hiatus before the last episode to build it up in your mind. Madoka needed at least a few more episodes.
>>291090217>She only looked up from her phone when she realized Mari was getting emotional.Lara was a jerk.
>>291090829It was probably a mistranslation. Probably he said girl-meet-girl, exactly what Oshii said about Vladlove. Also it was an exclusive interview for America
>>291090507It's really funny to me that these faggots are mad that a shoujo had a shoujo ending
Just realized why this ending felt exceptionally bad to me.
>>291090620A female main character show airing next year
>>291090199I don’t know why I never thought about Lara becoming a sea witch. Wish we got more scenes of this form.
>>291090808>originalYou didn't mention that. Most het anime since forever have been about rejecting modern values and romanticized love.
>>291090081Madoka is overrated and ruined Mahou Shoujo.
>gacha incels are here
>>291090861>schizo is from some shithole that isn't allowed to make threads we already knew that, but still funny
>>291090896name?
Am I the only one who liked the show?
Ganbare Nakamura-kun ended in much the same way but nobody got angry at that, why? Nakamura is also a literal actual gay cuckold
>>291090666I think watching the whole anime is less pathetic than wasting time saying you dropped it after the it ends. It's just an anime
>>291090786sperg melty
>>291090889Well that little shit grew up and really delivered on his words, huh.
>>291087777Gay foid slop I'm glad I never bothered watching this shitGoodbye Lara
>zoomers don't recognize Xenoblade Chronicles 2
>>291090924We all liked it, that's why we hate the ending.
>gacha BVLLZ have graced us with their presence
>>291090923 Koiseyo Mayakashi Tenshi-domo
>>291090888I hate these kinds of characters splitting up endings in shoujo manga too. But the shoujo manga I've read are nowhere near this mean-spirited.
>>291090760I am asking because most ai slop I see gets posted from bilibili and chinks fucking love ai slop(and cgi animation it seems)
gacha balls
>>291090940How is he wrong?
>>291090096>who cares about them, right.Her dad slashed her and her sisters basically gaslit her. It's pretty compassionate just intending to speak to them again.>Was Luca a reincarnation or not?doppelganger to bait Lara and the viewer>Did Lara just egoistically used Mari to gain legs back, and she's actually doesn't like her? She loves her but not romantically.>No goodbye hugThat one does suck.
>>291090928Because fujos are trained to accept shit and talk about "representation"
>anons explain how Mermaid Lara died reviving Mari and now she's a different human and needs to travel the world to feed The Light™ to revive her peoplemaybe there's still sooooooome redeeming qualities of this ending???>anons explain how Mari lost everything dear to her and Lara pointlessly sods off becaaaaaause she just needs tomy day is ruined
>>291090928Dude, nakamura ended by starting a new second year with nakamura realizing his love was a good thing and he deserved it.
>>291090945XC2 isn't that old of a game you dummy.
>>291090923Studio is mappa
>>291090859I am saying that an editor would have exactly saved it if the editor had the same mindset, retard.
>>291090644>dozen Yuri chink animeTell me more NOW
>>291090810I never cared about you at all and now I need to go to other boards
>>291091003Wait... am I seeing things?
>>291090929Haha, unlike you, I didn't waste my time watching this nonsense, so I still have the high ground.
Felt like Lisa confirmed the light Lara produced wasn't the light of true love. What a neat little sentence added just in case anyone got the wrong idea.
>>291090642he's right though, no fujos actually give a fuck about this show outside of some shitposting, which means it was yurifags who are also okay with homo. no one is posting tons of art of them or watching the show for luca.
>>291090217Ariel would have never done this to Mari. Where are the fanarts of Mari and Ariel?
>>291091004Oh fucking cute.
>>291090961>>291091004thanks
>>291091003It's 10 years old next year.
>>291090122>Muh troooons, muh hot men.Fucking retard. Absolute homosexual you are.
>>291090945I disliked xc2, I am retro gamer
>>291091049>he
>>291090977You tyyyyype like a faaaaaggot
>>291090917Gacha!?
>>291090966They are perfectly fine with 3D models looking like 3D models instead of trying to imitate 2D, yes.But one of their big yuri works is 2D and it's popular enough to be getting its third season
>>291091004this is hetslop, not yuri
>>291091071>HAS
>>291090644>chink """anime"""
Why are yurifans so mentally ill compared to fujos?
>>291087777A couple...of besties!
>>291090916Nah it's a 9/10 anime imo and it has only inspired like less than 10 other anime so no effect on mahou shojo really.
>>291091101Fujos still have sex.
>>291091004Ah, the one about becoming a better man, huh.
>>291090312I AM A STRONG FOID HEAR ME ROAR YAAAAAAS QUEEEEEENBravo japan so brave and stunning
>>291091101nice try foid

>>291091036Sean?
>>291091061Yes and? It's younger than the youngest members of Gen Z
>>291091101They aren't though look at bakudekufags or the way they reacted to karaoke iko on 4chan kek. Karaoke went from being "kino best good" to trash because the MC isn't a gay pedo.
>>291091084Idk but I think the 3d shit looks absolutely awful and 99% of their shows are like that. I wish they switched to 2d
>>291091132thanks
I wonder who runs the spambot. It regularly replies to itself within ~30 seconds.
>>291091137>kinosame one plot tho
In the end, nothing mattered
The ending was so bad that even our hearts are turning into daggers...
>>291091101Because they keep getting regularly destroyed like this, for decades.
>3 seething threads in a row
>>291091221More like 3 threads shitting in the ending on a row.
>>291091221Man the ending really mindbroke these retards lmao
>>291091221And there's more to come
>>291091175good luck with your transition
>>291091221>I'm almost enjoying my seethe
>>291091250>inESL-kun...Ok the ending was shit but it's just a chinese cartoon, move on.
>>291091221Does it really matter when most of it is spam?
>>291091205I love you too Anon...
>>291091094>NO STYLE>HAS NO FACE>THIS LOVE STORY>HAS ENDED IN DISGRACE
>>291091101We're not. you retards just have argument with yurifans 24/7, not giving yuri fans space to peacefully talk. and then you shrieking and start narratives and talk like sjws when you get mild pushback from yurifans, its insanely ironic.
>>291091101Because yuri is more likely to be canon, there's more troons into, and they don't have a background of being okay with shipping pairs who aren't canon the way fujos do. You have zoom fujos from the West who are obsessed with canon, but oldfags always knew nothing would be canon. But yurifags don't have that type of history because they're used to only shipping canon.
>>291091250>inyou're brown and poor
>>291090928That’s not true, fujos were mad at the guy for breaking Nakamura’s heart and leading on the girl calling him a piece of shit
>>291091269no need to
>>291091315How many of us are /v/tards in disguise?
I'm pretty sure this ending is supposed to be Lara finding herself before she settles down with Mari but it's so poorly and suddenly done that it just doesn't work. You even have the line at the end about how her legs hurt but she doesn't want Mari to help her stand, but it doesn't really deliver on the idea.
>>291090798My brave projecting modern culture warrior: Yuri just being a phase is a Taisho-era trope. You're not going to escape it it's over a 100 years old in its modern incarnation. That's a lot of cultural inertia.
>>291091338All I saw from fujos were talking about how brave and "authentic" the ending was.
>>291090798Lesbianism is indeed a phase.
Why does separation at the end make autists so angry? It's not like these characters are dead.
>>291091371I saw that too alongside the bashing
>>291091361I am from the ye olden days where /u/ and /v/ being neighbors was a source of jokes instead of mindbreak.
>>291090694The source material's whole point is unselfish love for someone else. You can very easily write an ending where Lara ends up leaving as an expression of selfless love for other people. Instead she fucks off for the sake of fucking off.
>>291091400>It's not like these characters are dead.Would've been a better ending if they were.
>>291091361I hope not many, I have /v/ niggers. Let me guess, you'll go and make a "when the game starts good but ends like this " thread on there with a lara image or something
>>291091361>in disguisei can smell you gachafags from miles away, you will never be a tall and handsome MC. you will never have a harem. you're fat, brown, and poor
>>291091451Very true. We should all embrace yuri because we are ugly. Has it helped you?
>>291091451Based, FUCK Gachashits. I only play RPGs and Fighting Games.
>>291091361I always felt like getting "yuri" in video games to be significantly harder, like aside from the demographic for it being pretty small, the devs are also not willing to make any yuri-specific games ever (aside from VNs). A game might have some same-sex routes, but that's it.
>>291090852Even if you were neutral to Mari up until now, what Lara did to her was just so vicious that it has people who even have a shred of humanity horrified at what was done to her.
>>291091125This meme is now spreading to Japan even? Yikes
>>291091551A demographic that is likely to enjoy this genre simply doesn't intersect with gamers beyond an occasional transsexual and japs don't really care about those.JRPGs in particular are a very hetero male dominated genre, since most of them are heroic coming of age stories.
>>291087919Mari was literally "cucked to death".
I feel the authors betrayed their own message which seemed to be summed up by Grace in ep11. Unless they come out with some kind of statement making sense of this ending, it's very off-putting.
>>291091824Koide betray himself, the message of the anime and the fans.
>>291091551Gacha games are full of yuribait though. Anons consider Yumemita a yuri anime.
>291091101Because fujos restrain their shit to their own circles and single out tourists fast while excluding them.
>this won't be your typical yuriBut copout vague bullshit is exactly typical yuri?
>>291090889Because it reminded you of a much, much better ending?
>>291091881>full of yuribaitOnly mihoyo games, and only to some degree. The rest of gachas are all about sexy chicks sucking your self-insert's cock.
Luca wonneroo
>>291092041There are others like Reverse 1999 or Heaven Burns Red. The latter is where Jun Maeda ran to after nearly killing himself for one reason or the other.
>>291091953 x enoblade 2 was shit
>>291089210Exception to the rule
>>291091881No lesbian this season thirsted for pussy as hard as Miyako did.
>>291091824They can't save this ending because I'm not interested in anything they have to say at this point. They blew it.They could claim an exec put a gun to their temples and told them>you fucking take that kiss out right now or I'll blow your brains outand I still wouldn't forgive them for being cowards.
>>291092106>Jun Maeda nearly killing himselqrd?
>>291092106>Heaven Burns Red>Maedahow much of the bingo can you fill in playing that?
>>291092286Idc about gacha slop
>>291092318Don't let the door hit you on your way out, faggot.
>>291090928But in Nakamura-kun its just the end of their first year of school together its very obviously implied they'll be hanging out still.
A better comparison is No.6 which also ended with the leads separating at the end. That anime was shit but they do have a reunion novel out now after fifteen years so there is still hope for Lara too.
>>291092335Not super familiar with the details, but he was missing for a good while before coming out and saying he's been struggling with mental health. Then he started working on HBR and started feeling rejuvenated by the work he was doing. And AFAIK that game has real lesbians in it so you could say yuri saved his life.>>291092354Wouldn't know. I don't play it, just heard about it.
>>291092443>struggling with mental health>writing yuri as a resultWill Jun become the first high profile case of a Japanese creative to troon out?
>>291092530Maybe. I'm expecting at least one of the more famed Jap game devs to go off the deep end.
>>291092335The last show he made was so bad that it put him into severe depression, or so I heard.
>>291089406It was fantastic until the second half of the last episode.
>>291087777>>291087777 Kek
>>291092430>No.6Haven't thought about that in a long time
>>291092391Why can't people just imagine Lara and Mari reuniting?
>>291092990If Lara didn't seem completely uninterested when leaving it may be easier. It's still a cop out to have the audience make up their own ending though.
>>291092990Because Lara would rather keep trying to hop on Luca's big cock than seeing Mari as a partner
>>291090889More stories should just go>fuck it, lets deliver exactly the ending people want
Revenge NTR fanfic where Luna wakes up and seduces Mari while Lara is away.
>>291093154Too bad it was shit compared to the first one. Also no sex scenes.
>>291093187Die one thousand deaths.
>>291093187Luna hates humans as much as her dad does.
>>291092990Cope alone, faggot.
>>291089459We'll see how next week goes first, it's not like the last few episodes have been anything spectacular
>>291092990Lara stumbling as she gets on the train is a sign to me that she will come back, but idk she seemed pretty cold about it that entire final scene.
>>291093154My problem with this is that Rex acted like an idiot in his own game. Why couldn't we play as that Rex?
>>291093271Because the audience is Japanese boys. Too bad 3 wasn't Rex's daddy adventures.
Literally a LIVE LAUGH LOVE finale with the female protagonist killing her father, dumping her boyfriend (again) and her girlfriend(????) so that she can travel and "discover herself". This was one of my favourite anime this season, but the ending was embarrassing.
>>291089570>>291089610>>291089629I haven't seen it since it aired and, while I remember overall liking it quite a bit, didn't the ending make everything fairly inconsequential? As in most of the plot could have not happened at all and it wouldn't have changed anything for the MC?
>>291089570I'm sorry you couldn't appreciate Sonny Boy. I thought it was a masterpiece and the ending was everything Evangelion wanted to be but couldn't.
>>291093267I don't get the assrage when nips love ambiguous endings like this. "Part and meet again" is beloved for plenty of other yuri classics. Is it only culture wars that make people seethe this much?
>>291093379Not at all, the mc developed . Retarded post.
>>291093465This ending doesn't have any hope for that. It's an extremely subdued ending with the main character seeming to not give a shit about her supposed love and leaving without any fanfare.
