>>4183339>Season 3 is here early.Whzttt for reaal??? Imma watch this sheet right fucking now!!
>>4183339I unironically think this show should be banned from /u/. Not only is it the DEFINITION of yuribait, but hetshitters using this shit to shitpost here has been going for long enough.

Reina is gonna ditch Kumiko for the new eupho slut.
>>4192330Isn't Kumiko the pussy magnet who has all the other euphos after her?
>>4192454It's over... Kumiko can't beat this
>>4186191>they live together you will see later this season >asuka likes going to aquariums What more needs to be said?
>>4192941>they live togetherI don't remember too well, were there implications that they were more than just roommates?
>>4192454She's got competition now.
>>4193187
First great content to come out of this season.
>>4192902Maybe not, but she can motorboat them.
Sis, what is this scene trying to convey ?
>>4195254
>>4195254Bait.
>>4195254>>4195257Asuka being the top and Kaori the bottom.Kumiko being clueless like you.
>>4195330>>4195338No seriously. What's the whole point of this scene?For me it seems like Asuka is disgusted by Kaori's good girl personality. Disgusted may be too strong but at least she doesn't seem to feel comfortable with that situation.
>>4196022Asuka hates her mother, so Kaori acting like she's her mom triggered her, nothing else.
>>4195254Even if it was just for a second, Asuka is upset because she had let her guard down and failed to maintain her image of perfection.
Finally Azusa's gf will be animated
>>4196725It all started with her sister.

What did she mean by this?
>>4199055Kumiko is slowly starting to get her harem
>>4196323Actual schizo but it's normal in Japan
>>4196725I hope this is real
Is there someone compiling Kumiko and Reina's scenes in s3? Please gimme link. I don't want to watch season 3 but these two are embarrassingly my first exposure to yuri so they will always be attached to me. I saw pic related related on twitter then nostalgia hits so bad that I kinda wanna see them again. I'd die before I watch whole s3 though, I haven't even seen the movies.
>>4201610Also, can someone spoil me why Reina isn't the president when she's the best player out of the seniors?
>>4201612because Kumiko is the self-insertion of this series and for that same reason shoe is the vice president.Reina is only there to give her false relevance so that people don't forget that she is supposed to be important, as happened in S2 and the movie.
Last episode was that special one for KumiRei making three year that Kumiko choice spend with Reina the festival, years ago will had cause explode the threadbut now people here has burn out of this fanchise
>>4202321>but now people here has burn out of this fanchisePoor retard, if you actually followed it Kumiko ends dating Shoe in the novels which this anime adapts.It seems you didn't even check the movies either.Her interactions with Reina don't matter in slightest where they are just empty baiting.
>>4202323Never reply to Mugino.
>>4202323All can be avoided and the anime has a lot differencesnewbie
>>4202337No, and the anime does absolutely nothing to move away from het, the yuri bait is just to make people give shit for a series that would otherwise be irrelevant.
>>4202360>>4202333
>kumiko super flustered about visiting reina's home>shoe1 cucked yet againI guess somethings never change.>>4202323The relationship between Reina and Kumiko has consistenly been the most entertaining and fun part of the show, and the most important one for each other, with or without yuri.
>>4201612For the same reason Mizore wasn't the president the previous year. You can't have an autist who is a terrible communicator be the leader. There is a lot more to being president than just being the best performer.
>>4202323I know I'm delusional, but I still haven't given up on an anime original ending
>>4201610This scene was mad gay.>>4201612Because Kumiko, despite being insecure about her communication skills, is actually the better communicator. She's a great listener and her analytical skills aide her in guiding troubled students back into a harmonious state of mind and spirit.

>>4202513>with or without yuri.That's the difference which matters here.
The boost Kumiko always wanted.
>>4202323>Her interactions with Reina don’t matterThis is just dishonest. There’s more going on in the story than romance. It’s not a story about who ends up with who.
>>4206844>This is just dishonest.This is a yuri board, if you want to cry about non-yuri stories where girls end with guys but also are friends with another girl please go away.
>>4206844If you want to defend this series, then you are doing a terrible job, you are literally celebrating the mediocrity of the author/director and justifying them very hard.It's even worse when there are better and really yuri friendly series in this same season, even Yuru Camp is doing better in that regard.
>>4206844 Hibike! Euphonium is not a yuri anime:the official Hibike! Euphonium light novel
>>4206958>Hibike! Euphonium is not a yuri anime:Finally you started to speak with sense.

see look i was right they do get married reina is the girl husband
this is my fav yuri pic of all time
how i want to wake up every morning
how i want to fall asleep every night
>>4208348then help me and post some high rez pics
>>4206958>>4206964That is a fucking doujin retard. The light novel ended with het ages ago. Is the only way you can maintain your trolling by lying?
>>4210769
>>4209291the series is going to pull a fullmetal alchemist and is going to be different then the light novelsKumiko is going to end up with Asukaor Kumiko is going to get marred to Shuuichi for social reasons only while the enter time she will be having a secret love affair with Asuka.Japan does not recognize same-sex marriagesShuuichi and Kumiko will have a loveless marge
he will know about the secret love affairbut he will not do anything about it <pic has been centered because boys are gross>
she dose not say "goodby"she said "see ya"as in "i will see you again"so there love is not over
https://x.com/ajitsuki_eggs/status/1792107203757023383What the fuck did kyoani mean by this?
>>4211011They fucked
>>4211011Expect them to marry and adopt a little (gay) girl together.
>>4211011(Sound) I'm already on my way. Oh is that so
>>4211352>(Sound)Lol poor Kanade getting her name translated
>>4211352Why did they do this? I know Fate and Nanoha did this, but why?
>>4183341They came back! And with marriage hairclips!
>>4211419So each one can feel fabric that was in contact with the other's most intimate area.
>>4211263>>4211098
>>4211452That was on my list of possibilities. Another one was a excuse to look at each others pussies while in the act of changing.
>>4211419It's just a thing that couples do, it's not rare for lesbian couples living together to share clothes. That said, Kyoani probably is weaseling their way out of this by saying it's just adolescence, or something equally stupid.
>>4211820>KyoaniThey're probably desperate for attention in that sense, especially considering how this season we have more and better series that actually have yuri (even Yuru camp is better)
>exchanging vag cheeseAre they trying to create a new kind of yeast for bread?
I love youI love you Kumiko but Mayu's sound is just betterI'm sorryI'm SORRY KUMIKOMAYU IS JUST WAY BETTER THAN YOUHNNNNNNNGGGGGGgg
>>4221043
>>4188596I hope all the male students in Hibike die painful deaths
>>4221043At last Mayu win the Euphobowl
>>4221440*I hope all the male characters in Hibike die painful deathsFixed
Nice episode, Reina finally starting to doubt Taki and being the one with the most internal conflict after the audition results is good stuff.
>>4223059You know very well that Mugino could never write such comprehensible and grammatically-correct English.
Anyway, i feel that Mayu has more yuri vibes and could had a crush on Kumiko so is great she win the Euphobowlnow they need lose again the competition to make it complete worthless
>>4225075why is this so gay
look at their hands...
>>4226399Because Takeda is in denial about her high school experiences?
>>4225075There is a Hibike smut book?
>>4226400>no shoe pin
>>4188596Mods, please delete this comment already
Lesbian moms are here.Honestly kinda sad we'll never see the development of these two after graduation animated and idek if that stuff is translated.
>>4228174>we're rooming together because it's cheaper>also we're getting married for the tax benefits>also we're adopting a girl to be our imouto>also we go down on each other as besties to relieve stress
>>4228174The confession is translated at least.https://teamoumae.wordpress.com/2019/06/11/true-story-3-however-that-time/
Asuka is really o/u/r girl.
No way these two aren't fucking.Haruka forever alone.
If only Asuka and Kaori were here we'd had the entire dyke gang in one place.
There it is.
>>4233008God, there's something incredibly funny and depressing about the fact that in a season when Hibike is airing, it isn't even the most egregious baiting.
>>4233027Which is?
>>4233027Mahouka, Date a Live, Blue Archive, BHA? These would be the others I know from this season.
>>4233007I didn't expect Mizore to be such a fucking savage.
>>4233005
>>4233124
>>4202323See>>4233124you lose, now apologies,
>>4233135That doesn't say anything different than what was already stated years ago (not a good thing by the way)
>>4233124>YOU ARE MY FRIEND>AAAHH AAAHH
>>4233135They are in denial.Thank goodness the interactions with Reina don't matter, they are the heart of the series, but hey, it doesn't matter.It's funny that they call the series yuribait when everything we've seen so far has been gay as fuck. On the other hand, the hetero theme in anime version has been touched on very casually and with very vague hints. But it doesn't occur to them that maybe it's hetbait. Anyway they've changed quite a lot in these last two episodes compared to the novel. If they remove one more scene with Shoe it ends up in yuri territory. It's not like their relationship really mattered in the novel, it was just there for the sake of being there. For Kumiko, Reina is special to her and always will be, that's the message of the series, take it as you will.
There's actually anons who unironically believe the anime will depart from the source material and retcon the het into yuri?This would piss off the author and their fans to no end, there are limits to wishful thinking.
>>4234258They don't need to retcon anything, just keep ignoring Shoe as they have done so far this season, it's already yuri.
>>4234276Nevermind, didn't think you meant it in that way.
It's over but it's beautiful. Don't get me wrong - I'd love KumiRei to be canon, but the wrtting of this episode and the reference were stunning.
This new ep is good for the yuri
They reverse their famous momentTheir know KumiRei is the hearth od the story, not this dumb competition xd
This is cinema, xd
You can actually pinpoint the second where her heart rips in half.
>>4233122That's not the only thing that finger's touching tonight.
I read somewhere there's going to be special episodes in the BDs of season 3, are they expected to be story-relevant, such as epilogues, or just side material for past events?
>>4239515Second, probably comedy stuff
So is it finally yuri?
>>4239741Let's say the shit Kumiko and Reina said to each other would be romantic on any other context. Problem lies in it will never be true for them. Taking romantic imagery/language and making it "friendship" is Kumirei's whole brand.
>>4239741If no het occurs next episode then I see no reason not to consider this show yuri. And even if KumiRei sinks, AsuKaori and NozoMizo are so gay that at least it can be considered a show with a yuri side couple.
>>4239752>>4239778Alright I was told by one of my friends that season 2 was all het so I didn't watch it but I keep seeing the finger tracing scene on Twitter and I want to believe
I know that odds of a Yuri ending where already 0% but they somehow found a way to be even worse
>>4240533That's quite vague.
>>4225075>her fingers caught on the band of Reina's braLewd>>4228225Is the Natsuki/Yuko confession translated too?
>>4240533Didn't expect the anime to manage to be even less yuri than the novel.
>>4240561Yea is shoeichi conversion removed or not?
Depend of how they adapted this could be at last the final scene>「...Idiot」>At the gentle voice by her ear, Kumiko tightly shut her eyes.>"I like you, Reina. I admire your hard-working nature and everything about you.""I like you too, Kumiko. Your kindness, your strength, and even the parts where you're sometimes a little mean.">"Can you praise me for that?">"Because those are the parts I love about you.">"Because you like me?">"That's right. Those are the parts I love."Thanks chatgpt.
Maybe this are legits leaks from 5chan
> 【Thorough Comparison of Soli 】>> The reason why (Mayu) is better is due to the softness of her tonguing (note attack).>> Compared to straight brass instruments like trumpets and trombones,> the euphonium is expected to produce a more enveloping sound.>> Kumiko’s sound is good as well, but her tonguing feels a bit strong.>> In contrast, Mayu’s tonguing is very soft and smooth,> which is wonderful.https://twitter.com/yakumo0515/status/1805897990978351291
>>4241669> Kumiko’s sound is good as well, but her tonguing feels a bit strong.>> In contrast, Mayu’s tonguing is very soft and smooth,> which is wonderful.How the fuck do you expect me to read this without thinking about lesbian sex?
>>4241661WHAT? Why are you misinforming?This fragment is from the daisuki no hug that was already seen in the anime. It's just that in the novel they say the things they like about each other.
>>4241662They are true, more or less, but Kumiko and Shuuichi are dating each other. But as always Kumiko seems to like Reina more and the scenes with her are always longer and more intense. And yes, they bathe together and say "I love you" (ai shitteiru) to each other. It's supposed to be a game they had heard before in the bus but neither Kumiko's reaction seems so and not even Reina saying that to her before Kumiko gets out of the bathtub.
>>4241669So Reina prefer Mayu's tonguing.
>>4241814>Kumiko and Shuuichi are dating each otherSo the bait stayed bait, yuri is just a phase that doesn't really count, etc...Nothing of value here.
>>4240533yuko and natsuki confess? I thought only Asuka and Kaori was canon and wasn't it just shoeitchy confession at the end, lost on this spoiler
>>4241989It's a leak for the latest book, not the anime.
>>4241814baka cheating in broad daylight
>>4242067That leak is obviously bull.
YuukoxNatsuki dump from Liu Asahi in order.
And NozoMizo to cap it off.
>>4242697I hate how this shit still gets me. I know nothing will ever come out of it beyond "super special friends", but I can't give up on them. This weekend episode will finally free me from this curse... Or so I believe.
Regardless if KumiRei sinks or floats next episode, it's been an honour to make it this far.
We were on the verge of greatness, we were this close.Oh well, nothing left but to finish this thread and carry on.
Goodnight. KumiRei will live on in our hearts.
Thank god the curse Hibike had over yurifans is finally over. It will live on in infamy as the quintessential bait of baits.
>>4206844If who ends up with who doesn't matter, why shouldn't it be Reina? They clearly have 10x the buildup.This stance of not caring just means the arguments against it go away completely.
>>4245779I mean, the "main romances" in the show mattered so little that one was always a joke and the other one got so little development you might as well "interpret it" as non existent.Now, if you only care about Kumiko and Reina (or any of the other /u/ couples) getting together, then yeah, the show isn't worth your time.
>>4245779>>4245826The really funny thing at the end is that Reina, like for the third time and she repeated it a lot in the last episode in case any idiot had any doubts, that she was going to confess to Taki no matter how long it took or if he was an old man, in addition to bragging about how attractive he is.
>>4245961Quite outside of any yuri concerns, Reina gets completely screwed over by awful character writing. Even in S1, every VA was joking in interviews about how much of a chuunibyou she was, but the narrative itself treats her as a totally mature person who's already finished growing up, and all of her extremely dramatic behavior and obsessions as legitimate and a sign of how special and driven she is. S2 had the perfect opportunity in Mamiko's arc for Reina to begin to realize that changing what drives you as you mature isn't the same as giving up, just like Mamiko finding something she cared about instead of music didn't mean she stopped loving Kumiko, but instead it draws zero parallels and she just doubles down on the thing actively making her miserable and almost destroying her only close friendship.
>>4245961Learn English.
>>4245975>> Reina gets completely screwed over by awful character writing.yeah that's the problem with her and it really hurts even the yuri option that everyone pretends is the "best couple" or option for both, Reina is a horrible person, the anime does a terrible job with her in every way.>>Even in S1, every VA was joking in interviews about how much of a chuunibyou she was, but the narrative itself treats her as a totally mature person who's already finished growing up, and all of her extremely dramatic behavior and obsessions as legitimate and a sign of how special and driven she is.an example of "reported attributes" but not properly supported by the actual series, if the VAs notice too, you know it's something bad.>>S2 had the perfect opportunityThe problem was that S2 mostly pushed Reina aside in favor of focusing Kumiko on a 2-character plot where she didn't fit very well, in the movie she's nothing better and then in S3 the writing isn't any better with her, even having her as the third important character.>>she just doubles down on the thing actively making her miserable and almost destroying her only close friendship.Knowing the writing of this series, this could have been intentional.
Is it weird to want Kumiko and Mayu together? It's like if Reina wants to fuck her teacher instead, Mayu shouldn't just take Kumiko's solo position but Kumiko as well.
>>4246356Reina returning after realising how much of a fool she's been, only to find Kumiko sucking on Mayu's mayus would have been a perfect ending.
>>4246372Ending is probably 3 or 4 years before Reina's return.
