The final Aitai...

>no S2 announcedOwari da...
Great adaptation overall but why the hell did they do the Ari/Esther episode as the finale?
>>291295891please tell me there's hardcore lesbian sex in the finale
>>291295958Nothing says war is hell like your wife moving on.
>>291295955Are there even enough chapters for a 2nd season?
>>291296020They adapted 25 chapters out 50, there should be enough chapters in like a year at the manga current pace.

GIRL NO
It's kinda funny how you can draw personality parallels to Esther and S'berry
>my girlfriend died too, i get it >so that means we're both single nowSTOP PREYING ON A WIDOW
I knew they would adapt these chapters since I saw the preview, but I still can't believe they actually did it. Pretty retarded decision unless they know they're making a season 2 sometime in the future. Imagining completely sidelining your main characters in the season finale. They even had a perfect mini chapter to adapt for them as the last 2 minutes of the show, and chose not to. What an insane decision. Overall, 8/10 adaptation. Pretty big quality drop for the writing around ep 10/11.
ABSOLUTES'BERRY
>ari fell in love with her fivehead
does ari die?
I understand Esther, her previous girlfriend looked beautiful but Ari is pure perfection.
she probably did a few times in the future...
>>291296459she died inside when seiran did
>>291296421Fiveheads are cute.
I fucking hate ari
>>291296093licky licky
such a beautiful country they live in

>>291296668i can't believe she has the balls to confess like this, seiran hasn't even been dead for that long
brb watching this during my 5 minutes pause will give my raving review after
>>291296704kill yourself
>>291296701Esther has no time, she already gets sent into battle. Either she eats some chocolate pussy now or it may be too late.

very subtle imagery
>ABOOBOOO SEIRAN LE DIEDcant believe they had this shit for last episode lmao
>>291296617Thank you!!!!
I fucking love this anime so muchI was expecting a much more tragic finale but I'm so happy that it ended in this bittersweet conclusion. They kept stabbing us with Seiran's death but they're also bringing the audience along with Ali's healing. There can never be any sort of "moving on" from anyone's death, but there will always be people and friends around you to help you carry on. And Esther(or notSberry) is proving to be very helpful in that regard.You can't keep isolating yourself. You have to carry on even if you can't move on. I think Heaven Burns Red carries a similar lesson too.
RIP
>>291296555checked
>>291296627wtf this is yuri??????
>>291296766>>291296687We get it. You hate the show, stop spamming
>>291296741She just wants to taste Ari's chocolate starfish, there's nothing wrong with that.
>>291296816I wanted the last episode to focus on sheena and mimi tho
>>291296833they had their last episode last weekit felt like a finalethink of this week as just...a peaceful epilogue, ari slowly healing
>>291296843That's the enemy's blood.
>>291296862The prettiest corpse.
>>291296862DON'T TAKE HER HAND, ARI
>>291296862s'berry's new wife's wife
Seiran died because Tama didn't cast [Vivifying Light] despite having enough SP to do so
Ari has a line of dark haired white girls patiently waiting their turn.
>Ali likes dark-haired girls>Esther likes light-haired girlshmm
>>291296144Well, the truth is, I'm not in a position to say, but she's the perfect person to do so, because she, too, was widowed before she could confess her feelings to her beloved tenage girl husband.
>>291296966HMMMMMMMMMMMMM
>Listen, Raspberry. You NEED to kiss ALL the light-haired women to get ALL the tears of life.
>>291296858yup that really felt like the last episode, strange choice to adapt this extra episode tho, double shameful since I really don't care about this dumb pretend gyaru short haired dyke.:(just give me mimi
I think the show does a good job at depicting how people deal with grief and loss. Ari in this case.
>>291296214Twintail for anal!
>>291296571You know, I can restore your health by kissing your lower lip
don't worry, Ari, Esther is going to fuck the happiness back into you. It's what Seiran would have wanted.
>i die>kill me, i die
Esther is so smooth, what a homewrecker!
>>291297300The home was already wrecked, she's just moving into the rubble.
Smellfaggo
It's a trap!
>Asking about going out>Shows cunni.
>Ari and Seiran were in love with each otherYoy fags told me it was just restoration magic. Did I get baited into watching yuri again?
>>291297544they were really really good super friends.
>>291297544There was never any restoration magic, only an excuse for gay sex, now bend over.
>>291297582She licky lickyed her old girlfriend to death. She is unstoppable.
I liked this episode a lot (seems Ari/Esther is the new ship) but this was so weird to have as the season finale. Is there really no S2 announced?
>>291297583Super best friends that just happen to make out and fingerblast each other.
>>291297621yeah well it was just a phase, which ended.
I didn't mind this as a season finale as much as I thought I would from how manga reader talked about it. Having the final episode just Ari processing her grief feels appropriate for this show... still wish there was a second season announcement tho.
>>291296536So many destroyed/abandoned housed in vicinity.
Voyeurist is spotted.
>>291297661I don't think there's enough material for an s2 and I'd rather they adapt better yuri works anyway
>>291297705They can just make something up. Three episode Esther/Ari sex arc.
I liked the way it ended as well. The mood was just right and enough was left unanswered for a possible sequel. Ester a best
How is Crunchyroll missing English subtitles?
>>291297720what about polykino between sheena, mimi and esther... they make ari sit on the chair and watch
>>291297806This is the reason S'berry is interested in Ari.
>>291297832
>>291297542>>291297582I wonder if the manga is far enough that these two are already kissing and eating each other out
>>291297705Ehh, we are only 7 chapters away from having the same number of chapters this season covered. So, a year will be enough to get enough content for that.
>>291297893Soon. Trust Esther's plan.
Yuri power is restoring!
>>291296113Prison/military gay and they know everyones head could roll tomorrow. Like who cares at this point. Question really might be more about who isn't old enough to even get that 'I(we)-might-die-soonâ„¢ horny' and make use of it.
She won!
>>291296779They're stuck in a meatgrinder. There's nothing hopeful there.

Why is she doing that hand gesture? They are 14 years old, Esther...
>>291298260Pretty much thisnone of them have a future until they decide to leave the meat grinder.
>>291299014Yeah, that's too old.
Ari is my beautiful wife! I love her and I want her to sit on my face until I pass out! And fuck that hussy Esther for even daring to go near her.
>>291296356Everything I read prior said it was a 12 episode season, so maybe they picked up an extra one at some point?
/a/non really miss s'berry (not that I am that different)
>>291295922>Free CandyShe knows what shes doing.
>>291299193You could have Esther too anon, she needs love too
>>291295891I'm gonna miss this anime, aots for me, I enjoyed it a lot.A surprisingly poignant last episode too, maybe I should read the manga...
>>291299368She needs to stay away from widows.
I actually liked this show enough but it's a damn shame the manga's ongoing. I make it a point not to pick up ongoing series.
>>291299472>maybe I should read the manga...Go for it, the anime captured the atmosphere well but the manga is where most of the discussion is at
>>291295958>as the finale?WHAT? IT'S OVER ALREADY???????
Thanks to these threads, I'm going to watch S'Berry's show.
>All of this S'berry postingLies, I was the only one that watched S'berry's show.
>>291299919Good, you'll like it
>>291299830Aitai bitch!
>>291299919S'Berry is a sex pest, beware.
>>291299919>S'Berry's showwhat?
I never skipped OP themes this season in every episode of just two shows, this and Yani Neko one.
They're so fucking wet my god!
>>291299919...I miss her so much
>>291299965I skipped when she said 'tai', no time for me to fall asleep to watch some lily kino
>>291299979Imagine the smell
>this was somehow the only actual yuri anime this season
>>291299919S'berry's show is like Elaina's show, except she is extra lesbian and less sociopathic.
>>291297200
>>291300162I think it's also more focused.S'berry has a goal, Elaina doesn't
>>291299895I really like their shoes.
>>291296555>if we kill our enemies over there>will we finally be free?Esther, stop!
>>291295891I wish love and magic were real...
>>291300308She should turn the other way around and say those words...
Nothing wrong with Ari moving on. Nothing wrong with Esther luring Ari with candy.Nothing wrong with Esther telling Ari where her room is.Nothing wrong with Ari reprising with Esther one moment of her married life with Seiran.It is not unfaithfulness if your previous lover is dead.
>>291300415Yes, death shouldn't take precedence over life, Seiran would want Ari to be happy
>>291300294so do I, pubescent gays in high-heel boots drive me berserk
>>291299472You should. Mimi-sensei would approve.
>>291299551>>291300733I will, should I start from chapter 24?
>>291296113When I first started reading the manga, something didn't quite add up, and in the end I came up with this explanation:In the midst of the war, the factions are beginning to run out of fighters and are urgently seeking more soldiers like Mimi. However, attempts to replicate her success have failed: achieving this requires a special sacrifice, and although several experiments have already been conducted, none have been successful. The key was a person with unique magic, but she is no longer here, having sacrificed herself to bring her daughter back to life.This leads us to the orphanage, which actually functions more like a research facility. Faced with the impossibility of creating another immortal being, the director and her scientists decided to change their strategy: to bring back the one who had achieved it. Thus, Mimi’s mother was cloned.In addition, the first episode recalls the moment when Mimi met Sheena. Sheena remarked that Mimi’s scent reminded her of her mother’s… and it wasn’t just a coincidence.
>>291300904>In addition, the first episode recalls the moment when Mimi met Sheena. Sheena remarked that Mimi’s scent reminded her of her mother’s… and it wasn’t just a coincidenceIsn't that because Sheena has the same healing magic than Mimi's mother?Which will play a fundamental role in the future no doubt
>>291300801If you want to skip then either that or 25. You're gonna miss some more subtle character moments that weren't animated though
>>291300273S'berry is bisexual though
>>291295891I liked this show but there should have been more action and some more explanation on what's even going on.I wouldn't mind a second season but it's not mandatory.
>>291296536I recommend Witch Hat Atelier if you like the scenery in Kimishinu.
>>291296997>Fine>SophieIt's true.>>291299933Somehow everyone thought this, me included.But both here and in the Majo to Kuroneko threads everyone seemed to love S'berry.
>>291300801No, please start from the beginning. The anime changes some things. Most of them aren't really big. For example, the enemy doesn't seem to know about Mimi in the manga. This might seem huge, but nothing about the war is important anyway. More importantly, the anime changes a few character moments that might impact how you view the characters. For example, Mimi is generally a bit more subdued in the manga, which makes her seem slightly less childish.
>>291301485I shall do that then, it's not long anyway.Thanks for the advice
>>291296627>>291296811YURI CONFIRMED
>>291296093face of a predator
>>291301950I want to be her prey
>>291296860More like Sheena's period blood.
>>291296093Ari is so luckyShe should just accept her destiny
>>291300162>extra lesbian and less sociopathicNo need to sell it to me even harder, anon
Ari needs to become a mother (by me) ASAP
>>291295891>Only make it 1 cour so you sabatoge your own show because all of the romance happens in the latter half of the story which the show doesn't have enough time to coverJaps are fucking retarded
>>291302290Well if their objective is to make people read the manga to see the sweet romance, then they succeded
>>291302315Imagine if Evangelion ended on episode 12 and then split the rest of the show into a second season and never made End of Evangelion until 10 years later
>>291302290I don't think you understand what romance is.>>291302355I don't think you understand what an adaptation is.
>>291300152Still have no idea why Tai-Ari was officially labeled as yuri when it's less yuri than some anime that doesn't have the official yuri tag.
>>291300437Seiran isn't a cuckqueen, she would want Ari to think only about her, for 10 years at least.
I miss toxic Mimi who yells at Sheena to stay in the kitchen...
>>291302512
>>291302533Toxicity is over, now only love remains
>>291302559Just a little bit of yelling, maybe even a slap. I'm not asking for much really.
>>291302644Oh they're gonna yell and slap each other in bed, don't worry!The whole school will find out they're dating
So Esta has Rika.Ari will be paired with Haru who grows her hair back?
>>291302685Esther has to hands to fingerblast girls with.
S'berry is going to have two girlfriends now, just like S'berry.
>>291302766And a tongue
>>291302671You lost me.
>>291302671>Oh they're gonna yell and slap each other in bed, don't worry!Sheena isn't a masochist tho?
>>291302959She will be when Mimi is done with her.
>Hal's full name is HalfredHope her parents got blasted by the enemy because it's like they wanted her to be confused about her gender.
>>291302999It's actually Half Red, her parents were half communists.
>>291302644Mimi has moved on to tormenting Sheena mentally instead. She now has to deal with the anguish of growing up and dying while her gf continues to be a teenager for thousands of years, finally forgetting they ever met.
In 10 years in-universe, people are gonna call Sheena a pedo.
>>291303071Sheena will know they're only jealous
>>291302918They're gonna fuck, slap each other's ass and have very loud orgasms
>>291302866Does she also have a teacher that makes her lick her smelly feet?

>>291303019No, she'll just take another Sheena out of the fridge.
>>291303268Mimi is that you!?
This fanart was the real last episode.
...huh.
>>291303612Very hot
Does the concept of marital rape exist in this manga? Would it be be legal for Mimi to forcefully molest Shiina's body (the only thing that otherwise good-for-nothing slut is useful for) after a long day protecting the school?
>>291303779Hey, Mimi's wife also makes some good cookies
>>291303779Sheena can make cookies, clean the room, and prepare bath for Mimi, she isn't useless!
Is this yuri NTR?
>>291303918There's no NTR here
>>291295891This anime was a wet fart or dare I say queef. Big fat MEH.
>>291303612Mimi the groomer...
>>291303612Speaking of fanart, I checked pixiv/gelbooru and despite having 10 pages of fanart, it only has a single piece of straight fanart. I'm not advocating that more or even less be made, I just find it pretty amazing that such a popular series has next to zero straight stuff. It definitely wasn't like that with Watanare, which has comparable popularity.

>>291305227You should watch that older yuri anime in your backlog that you've never gotten around to watching. You know the one.
>>291305227Not some bullshit soft yuri/yuri bait, but real gay girls doing gay things yuri?
>>291305251>yuri baitThat's when they pretend to be gay but are straight. Nothing to do with subtext. If you believe otherwise, you've fallen for trolling by yuri haters.
>>291305251desu, I don't understand your question.
>>291304523It's incredible how this was literally never addressed.
>>291305227MGRP is 100% yuri.
>>291305374It was. She's a lesbian and so is teacher. She literally dreams about marrying a woman.
What a vapidly moribund anime, I'm so glad it's over.
>>291295891>wasted the entire finale on literally who character??????????????????????
>>291305618She is the best and most based character in the show.

>>291306031She got used to have sex everyday

>>291306279Esther is so lucky.
>>291305267>>291305308If they are actively courting, dating, having gay panics or gay thoughts then it's proper yuri. If it's some barely there subtext it's bullshit.
>>291299536same here, OP and MiA are torture enough and I legit worry what my age and health will be wh... if they end.
>>291295891No more aitais...two Reona op/eds this season and they were both great.Loved the show, perfect atmosphere, music and character relations
>>291306519I've been following Witch Hat Atelier since it started in 2016 and the author just said it's only one third of the way through. I will be over 50 by the time it ends.

>>291295891This show has really questionable writing, but its biggest weakness is the MC being an insufferable retard.If this was written by someone with higher IQ it could have been really good.
>>291296574>>291296726I still don't feel a lot over Seiran's 360° "I want to repay the school in mortal kombat!!! - oh I got headshotted", but Ari got some sympathy points for realistically dealing with LOSS.jpgAgree with the idea that ep12 is MC's ending, and ep13 is tying lose ends on Ari's part, first steps on moving on. (with help from Berry)
>>291297661>>291297705While the final show didn't suffer from it, the studio being relatively new at making their own shows, meant they had problems behind scenes (director for example changed from the initial announcement), and there's a het romcom from them and some villainess thing next, so either way, it'd be a while. There'd be enough chapters for S2 by the time they get to it. Specially since it seems they're spacing their releases, which means they want to give them time to try and make them look good
>>291306504No, I get that, I'm just not sure what you are asking with that in relation to the original post.

Mimi is an abusive husband, Sheena should get a divorce and marry Esther. She will be much nicer to her, just like with Rika and Ari.

>>291307553>One yuri anime per season since summer 2025>Ave Mujica for Winter 2025>Killing Slimes for 300 years, Ninkoro, Mono, Rock is a Lady's Modesty for Spring 2025>Watanare, Bad Girl for Summer 2025>Egatae, Watatabe for Fall 2025>CPK, Watanare next shine, Roll over and die for Winter 2026>Kamiina Botan for Spring 2026>KimiShinu, Bang Dream Yumemita, FightingGe girls anime, for Summer 2026Not him but there IS more than one yuri per season since 2025.
>>291300904This is a dumb theory and you should feel bad.
>>291307916>Mono>yuri
>>291308464mmmmmnyes
>>291305227>>We had at least one yuri anime per season since summer 2025>>no yuri anime next season>No... what am I supposed to watch...Wait until Winter 2027
>>291307509>Mimi is an abusive husbandkek what a great episode
>>291308482>fanart
This was great. It ended up having two "last episode" feeling episodes. One for the Sheena Mimi conflict, and one to help Ari move on.Showing there's a world outside in the last episode, to give at least a faint impression of hope is kinda kino too. This can't have a good end, the series is just designed like that, but ending the anime here is as close as we're going to get.
We're never getting a season 2 though get over it. If Yagakimi couldn't do it, and Watanare only got a half season, no yuri can.
[Sad News] There's still only like 5 Esther fanarts
>>291308552>faint impression of hopeOnly if you don't think for longer than 10 seconds. No matter what they do, they're doomed.
aitai......................................
Is she stupid?
they're calling it the weakest last episode ever
>Already have this>Still going after AriWhat a slut.
>>291308552>This can't have a good endIndeed, it's like kimitsuzu. To make it memorable, this can't have a happy ending.
>>291308875Classic S'berry…
>>291307916>Roll over and dieI should watch this, I only know about the guy fucking a duck corpse while his son claps.
>>291308921It's an okay show. It's really held back by its low budget though, but its LN is absolutely unhinged with how freaky the girls can get.
>>291308938Otillie is beyond freaky. Vol 7 translation soon
Fuck Sheena
>>291309155t. Mimi
Fuck Esther
>>291310128t. Ari
Is this the moment Ari starts to like Esther?
>>291310247The moment when we with Ari wanted to protect her smile.
>>291296779That's just Eva's message delivered in a much more boring and uninspired manner, completely surface level.Everything about this show is cursory and shallow, I only got through it because of Hidaka Rina.
>>291305406>>291305374This show never recovered from the abysmal second episode. It's a shame because I really liked episode 1.
So, why does Esther use boku?
>>291310414You know why...
The brown bitch got over her dead childhood lover, best friend and intimate confidant pretty fucking quickly, she was barely grieving for a couple of weeks before she's back on the field. It took me more than a decade to truly move on after my best friend died and I wasn't even fucking him.
>>291310414She is on top.
>>291310457You're also not under constant threat of being sent off to the magical meat grinder. The threat of impending death is a hell of a thing.
>>291310457I would've thought child soldiers probably move on quicker than most.
>>291310554Nor are they most of the time, the entire war aspect feels utterly superfluous and only comes into play when the author needs two characters to be separated. I had to pause the episode this week when they went outside and one of the girls casually mentions "Oh look, there's the town over there" without any further comment. Who lives there, I thought they were right on the border of a contested warzone? ZERO fucking world-building killed any interest in the cast's plights.I'm not even trolling or trying to sound dismissive either, I genuinely believe that this show would be better if they just lived in a remote boarding school somewhere deep in the mountains and cut out the entire war plot entirely. It's incredibly hard to take the girls as haggard military trainees when they live in spacious double rooms with 4poster beds and can just mill around the quaint rustic gardens skipping lectures without a care, baking cookies in their huge fully-stocked kitchens.
>>291304542The background art was really nice. I feel like more and more I'm seeing the same sort of landscapes done worse every year. Maybe it's just all the isekai shit saturating the "vaguely european fields and mountains" market.
>>291310737That has nothing to do with what I said. The setting is established, these are girls trained only for war and they know their life expectancy is limited and uncertain. They don't have the luxury of time, they're going to find someone to seek comfort in to mitigate the grief. You're expecting well-adjusted behavior and a morality play, this isn't that.
The writing for Ari and her grief seems leagues above whatever bullshit Sheena and Mimi have going on. I wish they had equal attention in the story.
>>291310821If that's how you want to play it then the entire building should be a horrendous shitshow of psychosis and paranoia, not the sweet and idyllic school life that the show portrays most of the time. It would be like living in the trenches and the show should have a much deeper focus on the mental states of the characters outside of "sad that my friend died."
>>291307916>Ave MujicaNot yuri>Killing Slimes for 300 years, Ninkoro, Mono, Rock is a Lady's Modesty for Spring 2025Not yuri>Watanare, Bad Girl for Summer 2025Watanare is yuri, Bad Girl is moeshit>Egatae, Watatabe for Fall 2025Watatabe is yuri. The other not>CPK, Watanare next shine, Roll over and die for Winter 2026CPK is female friendship. The rest is yuri though>Kamiina Botan for Spring 2026Agree>KimiShinu, Bang Dream Yumemita, FightingGe girls anime, for Summer 2026Kimishinu was the only yuri of the season
>>2913085865 too many.
>>291308921it's dogshit, it uses every tired isekai cliché and does a bad job at it.
>>291310737Oh, look, the guy who has been whining about not being able to empathize with characters unless someone gives him 5 hours of exposition about the country's political and economic system for the past 13 weeks turned up in the thread for the last episode too. What a surprise.
>>291311416What the hell are you talking about, I just marathoned the entire show in the past 24 hours for the finale, fuck off with your insane bogeymen. It's reassuring to know that other people thought the same thing though if true.
>>291311092>Ave MujicaThis literally has aunt/niece incest>NinkoroSatoko REALLY wants to fuck the assassin though. And she started feeling that way because she saw the other lesbian couple in the series being all lovey dovey.>EgataeWorkplace yuri
>>291311662did you really have to fall for his dumb bait?
>>291310737the setting is the worst part of this, I agree. you'll have autists screaming "b-butt it's shit on purpose!!! hurrrr u need shit to be overexplained?!?!?!?! its useless for the story!"they don't realize that you just want shit to make sense, but these subhumans have never read a good book in their life.NOTHING makes sense in this retarded war, everything is literally a vehichle to just have dykes suffer, there is no further meaning to it
>yuribait IS yuri*yawn*
>>291311092>CPK is female friendshipMe when I fall in love at first sight because my female friend's face is beautiful.
Spoil me. Does Esther end up fucking Ali?
>>291312324So far, no.
>>291308552Hope? The world outside seems full of abandoned ruins. If anything, it gave me the feeling of desolation rather than hope.Although, at least, it seems they could escape relatively easily, just open the gate and run. Or do they have "bombs" planted in them that activate if they try to escape, like that magic that disintegrated Seiran's body?
>>291310931That would have been interesting, I agree.Although it is implied that the propaganda and education they have received their whole life has normalized their situation. It's like being born in the trenches and having lived there your whole life. If you see it as normal, it won't bother you
>>291312386>it seems they could escape relatively easily, just open the gate and run. Or do they have "bombs" planted in them that activate if they try to escape, like that magic that disintegrated Seiran's body?They aren't prisoners, just wards of the state with no where else to go.
>>291310737I like the war aspect, without it, there would be no stakes.I also don't particularly mind the absence of coherent world building, I like mysteries.>I thought they were right on the border of a contested warzoneIt does look like a warzone, the area outside the school is full of ruins and with no people whatsover around
>>291312431If the alternative is dying and leaving your loved ones behind, maybe they should all escape and defect to the enemy
>>291295891In terms of emotions this was the 10/10 of my list,despite overall being 8/10.I watched it like a post-apocalyptic story,imagining the world as dead and only the 2 sides left.Maybe I was wrong,but the SoL action was my favorite,including the school lessons and the philosophy of it all,and not the fights,the magics or the love between our main girls.Last episode was really 10/10,focused intensively on Ari and her situation,it was nice and I'm a bit sad it's finished-it's so hard to find similar animes,which treat life&death so correct and well.
Do we even know who is the enemy in the current manga chapters?
>>291312639it's the HET republic of MEN
>>291299919This is the third anime that I've seen have S'Berry posting so I probably should do the same.
Hey, Who is the enemy is this, is there another boys only school?
>>291312639>>291313725No it's Oceania
>>291311092Coping retard.
>>291304142ogay, s'berry
>>291304542They say you can see the town from her and I can't fucking see anything
They went all out with the visuals and feels, what a beatiful send-off that I will surely remember and treasure in my memories, as opposed to some other series that decided to murder itself in the final 5 minutes.
>>291314247Okay, but consider this, the ending would be better if we had a timeskip and after the said timeskip, Sheena to leave the school to learn healing magic and be more independent from Mimi. Even better if it turned out that she was fucking Hal during that timeskip.
>>291313913As in Australians? SEAMonkeys? Kiwis?Boongas?
>>291314575It always makes me laugh (internally mayhaps) everytime when WEP and Flifla are mentioned in "do not trainwreck and burn your show like these did" discourse, as is that is the leggacy they will be remembered on. Is that what the direggtor had in mind? To make a show SO bad, it's still remembered years later because of it?Well congratz to the team behind Lara. Your epilogue ending was SO heinously bad it will be mocked and memed for the next coming years. If that's how you want your passion project to be remembered: congratz.
>>291310737>oh look, a village>ree why is there a village in a war zone, this never happens, and I'm now going to assume it's fully populated and not affected by the war in any way so that I can whine some more>also, the military that is defending the country get fed and pampered? That can't possibly happen! Everything must be exactly like my favorite dystopian YA novels, otherwise it's not believable.
>>291314575Thankfully not all writers are arrogant hacks
>>291314655Only retards who didn't watch the anime think Flip Flappers crashed.Die, troll.
New MV set to the opening theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=njJfgw1D-H8
>>291314765oh eggscuse me then
I miss Fran.
>>291314665That guy just wants to complain, the area outside of the school gates is clearly abandoned and full of civilian ruins. It is very clearly a warzone where nature is reclaiming old buildings that have not been used for a long time
>>291314789me too
>>291314789She is a sex pest tho...
>>291314779Unfinished? Does that mean ReoNa will fund S2 for us?
>>291315412Even better..
>>291315434Yes. It just means it uses mid-production footage.
>>291315412And that is a good thing.
>>291314665he didn't say that at all lol stop taking shit so personally>>291314655lara was mediocre and clearly shitting itself long before the ending, only obsessed yurifriends focus on the ending vs the entire rest of the show
s'berrysisters what are we watching next season?
>>291315798Iceblade sorc and Returner's magic S2s for magic academies. and Yasei No Last Boss S2 for new s'pica virgo
>>291316031so after she defeats the cult, she becomes one of rufus' lieutenants?where are aria and hana?
>>291316031didn't watch returner's magic but the other two I'm board onI don't think they have any even remotely similar vibes to this or s'berry's though
>>291316031>13yo Chinese boy has entered the chat
>>291315728incorrect, those were verbatim quotes.
>>291316156>ChineseDisgusting.>boyEven more disgusting.
There is no yuri next season...
>show ends up being yuri>retards still end arguing what is yuri or notwhy are you retards like this?
>>291316742It's just election tourists trying to find ways to deny yuri.
man, the whole time I thought the new girl was a spy and was going to lead ari right into enemy lines
>>291317106that would've brought this from a 5/10 to a 6/10 ngl
>>291317106>>291317137inb4 spygirl gets eventually (after a lot of tears and hugs) converted to MC's side through the power of friendship, handholding and yuri (no bait)
>>291317302>and yuri (no bait)only thing this series is doing right tbqh, especially this episode was pretty clear in how these relationships are framed
I thought the last episode was going to be about Sheena and Mimi sharing a romantic kiss instead of a healing one
>>291317302then she immediately gets shot in the head because she let her guard down and they have travelled too far outside
>>291317346No jokes, that's literally the focus of the next 3 chapters after what this episode adapt. kek
>>291317372we should kill the director then
>>291317302>no baitReal yuribait is rare. Subtext is not bait, newfag.
>>291317406subtext IS baitgo back to /u/ retard
>>291317372
>>291315434>>291315490fund Maou sama Retry, Reona chan
>>291317473>left to rightkill yourself
>>291317432nta, but I thought subtext is something like Nanoha where it's basically yuri but they never actually fully confirm it in the show. While yuribait is something where they trick you into thinking that it's going to be yuri but then the characters end up in a heterosexual relationship.
>>291317536I just saved it from when someone posted it last thread, take your problem with them.
>>291316742I tend to judge my shows on more than just if two girls kiss or not, sorry you are still at the entry level stage.
>>291314789So she kiss any injured girl or boy after battle?
>>291317738She molests them, yes.
>>291317738Only the cute girls.
>>291315798mine would be mahou raising project
>>291317473this would have made a nice finale desu
>>291316142Fall is only just beginning but if there is a dumb gay witch in a show out there I will find it
Last for my wife Ari.
>>291318210stfu, s'berry.
>>291318210dumber than mimi
cute girls, shit writing, decent yuriwould watch s2
>>291318210She's smelly
>>291318435She smells good.
what is s'berry from anyway? And is her show gay?
>>291318568Not after running around with stuffy shoes under the rain all day
>>291318848Aru Majo ga Shinu Made, and less gay than this but very fun
Mimi's naked petite body
>>291317372I'm glad the production didn't alter the source material much.
>>291316559But the next one... plus, we can always count on *yuri* kisses in anime that aren't even *yuri* to begin with, automatically turning them into *yuri* anime.
>>291318887Aru Majo was horrendous melodrama, at lest for the 2 episodes I watched. If the rest of the show is like that then I have no idea what the appeal is.
>>291319815S'berry a cutie
>>291319815The appeal is S'berry being a huge pervert
>>291316742>>291316785Sometimes they go too far; last week I came across a message from an Anon saying that this was nothing more than a class S, and that their kisses were just medical treatment with no romance involved.
>>291319980nasty bitch
>>291319980Perverts are always the best girls.
>>291316742>>291316785>>291320029They can even see two or three girls having sex, and these hetards will still deny it.
>>291321324Erika, start with the little one.
>>291321324In NGO's case so many of the scenes were figurative that it's hard to tell which ones we should be taking literally.
>>291321376Don't let its size fool you; it can heat half a dozen fingers at once.
>>291321445If you were a handsome man (female) would you be willing to live in a vaporwave streamer home with a literal gremlin without fucking it?
Seeing xitter recreate LWA's Diana from first principles, I realized what this show was missing.
Last for my wife Ari for sure this time.
>>291321751A girl with a big butt?
>>291321324I still remember the MahoAko Episode 10 thread from the day it aired, the absolute brain-melting chaos caused by those hetschizos after they had insisted the sex scene between Leber and Loco would be cut.
>>291321714Point taken.
>>291321751Diana was in the show but died offscreen.
>>291314239
>>291295922And that is how S-Berry captured the most beautiful girl in the entire orphanage.>>291321995
FUCK ESTHER AND FUCK S'BERRYJustice for Seiran!!
>>291322183>FUCK ESTHER AND FUCK S'BERRYThat is exactly what Ari will do.
>>291322000She is pointing at an army camp lolHow the fuck is that town
>>291308415We'll see about that.
See you tomorrow, little wife beater. Current arc in the manga is about sending Sheena to the field, with the usual flags. Give it a try.
>>291303941I want to bite her crotch... I mean, I want to deposit my mana in Sheena's crotch.
>>291322474Yeah, Mimi, but we're about to go to class.
I don't want to go to the void...
>>291304142This shit ended on a wet fart. What do you retards even see in this show that's good?
>>291322183Seiran will be happy knowing that another woman is taking care of her girl.
>>291322622the best part of this season, too this is a yuri romance that hetards and maletroons don't need to see
>>291322754I like yuri if it was executed correctly. This was just a pointless melodrama with forced conflict.>we just have to fight these nameless bad mages cuz they are bad>we just have to send our cute students into battle to die cuz we just have to! The world building was dogshit to say the least and served as a poor foundation to base this story's plot on. I couldn't take any of it seriously or get emotionally invested with such a weak premise.
>>291322835Me when I have the media literacy of a toddler that was dropped 10 times.
>>291299193this, Ari is my waifu, Esther is shit
>>291322853I'm sorry I offended your yurishit sensibilities but I'm right.
>>291322872Cope
It's been 13 weeks of this troll and people still respond to it?
>>291322881I don't need to cope. The season is over.
>>291322872No, you don't, and I bet you never read the manga.
>>291322911>No, you don't I don't, what?>Never read the mangaCorrect, I didn't, so director-san failed to explain the basics on world building in this story to even make me pretend like I care. That or it didn't cover enough in the manga. Either way, it sucks on its own merit.
>>291322973ok, hetrannie
Yeah yeah, see you next yuri anime thread for you to continue acting like a retarded faggot.
