I love how gay Mei is
Is the novel translated yet?
>>4245444The super friendship ending killed the hype and the staff and seiyuus ruined everything else. Just move on OPsis
>>4245714Don't come back in 50 years when Yorukura is now confirmed Yuri. Don't come back when MahiKano is now canon. Don't come back when Mahiru and Kano marries together and owns the biggest aquarium in Shibuya. Stay on that side.
>>4245714Is this the special ability of lack of understanding or just being stupid?
>>4245707I loved that scene, it showed how romantic and dorks these two are.Well, my real complaint about this anime would be (it's a problem I have with anime in general) the evil mother and evil loli were forgiven too easily, I'm not asking for over the top melodrama, but bad parents in anime are always forgiven too easily.
>>4245444So when you say "Oh, sweet summer child" to Kano, its literal? Explains a bit about the way she acts too.
So mahikano dating?
>>4246388Probably. The ending dialogue stated quite clearly that the four of them are going to try and stay together in Tokyo. And at least for the next four years they can since its Tokyo and universites for all the stuff the four of them want to continue to study are all right there at one or another train station. So if no one is leaving the area there is no reason to quit seeing each other. The one with the biggest problem is Kiui who says she wants to become a teacher and help kids but thats incompatible with being Nox and working with Jelee, so in 4 years she is going to have to make a big decision. If Jelee doesn't blow up and make the decision for her by being such a good source of income that she would be crazy to actually work as a teacher once she finishes her degree. But even that is four years away. The ending seems like they were expecting a season two, it quite literally seems like "seeya next year, we will still be here in Shibuya".But I don't see where the show did enough to justify coming back. There was a great set up right through the first Jelee gig. Then they did nothing much with it, and now that the couple troubles that were out there have been resolved- what are the stakes for the next season? Just a slice of life of the girls dating their various gfs, going to school and making Jelee songs and videos?
>>4246821There was a teacher who was also streaming, and it worked out until she got cancelled for some faux pas.
>>4246821The new interview with the writer/director revealed that it's not decided that Mahiru will go to university. While she did take (and pass) the entrance exam as per course, by the end of episode 12, she's unsure about whether to go through with this whole university thing or focus on doing her own things while enjoying working on JELEE.Would be wild if they make a S2 where Mahiru does not go to school and instead choose to venture through the indie life with Kano. They could cook up tons of funs and dramas with that premise.

https://x.com/1_ily_/status/1809551454463750657?s=19Summary of the mini talk show with the director/producer/character designer that happened today.Seems like a sequel is not out of the question, though only if they sell enough because original anime is costly. There are still unannounced events ahead so they want fans to keep the hype alive.
>>4248695October event, right? If I live in Japan I'd buy all the BD for the ticket alone. Too bad the shipping and tax are too expensive. Maybe I'll buy the BD when I save enough money.
>>4248695https://x.com/katatsukichuu/status/1809584226372841833?s=19https://x.com/pokemon8441/status/1809594449699406283?s=19https://x.com/_Handbill_back_/status/1809599682068509103?s=19Some other summaries of the talk show with more info.The original concept designs (pic related) revealed recently in the pop-up shop were drawn 3 years ago. It took them 3 years to turn these concepts into a full anime, which was fast for an original apparently.The staffs do want to make Yorukura a long running series, not just a short seasonal, however unlike with adaptations where the talk of when to make the sequel is discussed early, with an original they only start discussing it after broadcasting has finished so nothing has actually been decided at the moment.>>4248723The October event was announced long ago. They are saying that there will be more events aside from it.
>>4248803Oh nice, didn't know there would be more events. I wish the radio show would be weekly, but I hope it'd still continue even if it's on monthly format now.
>>4248803What a gorgeous designs. But unfortunately too adult looking, too sexy and not moe enough to risk using them in anime.
>>4248920Follow the official twitter account if you haven't yet, get anyone you know follow it too. They're seriously aiming for the 100k followers and said that something good might happen if they reach it because "the execs like numbers". Would be great if they manage to reach this goal mark before the event in October.>>4249059It's certainly too adult-looking for high schoolers but is perfect for a college setting, though.
>>4249245I've been following it. It's very close to 100k. Actually more than 100k if you combine with JELEE-chan but then again the follower base most likely overlaps.
Tanabata!

Seems like the final volume of the novel will come with multiple short after stories as store bonuses. Pic related is the title of the one from Melon Book>after story 1 Jellyfish in the Night

Background lesbians in Episode 10
This JC couple were in a number of episodes, weren't they?
https://x.com/_yurinotaku/status/1809642669959967082
>>4251398Yeah.
>>4251472Also possibly these scenes.
Why are there so many background Lesbians in this show?
>>4251487To sell the message. Its basically a form of subliminal messaging.
>>4251472I find it really adorable that the blue-haired one straightens out her hair at school but goes with a messier style when she's out with her girlfriend.
Hey I just noticed that these two>>4251396 can simply be a age progressed version of the two JCs >>4251472it would be quite easy for the black haired one to outgrow her girlfriend this much between age 12 and age 20. So the 2nd animation director or whatever position draws the background must have liked the designs and ordered variations.

>>4251671>>4251677Is the implication that, because they changed into each others clothes that they were naked together?

>>4251924Koharu taught her the magic of binding tape.
>>4251915Might not be so grim, Kadokawa did MagiRevo and MahoAko
>>4251975What did happen? Is there a reason, they were actually a scene in a episode and they have been dropped like this?
>>4252048Seems like she dropped them on the 8th floor of the Shibuya Don Quijote.
>>4252052Its worse than the reduction Aoi got in this last season of YuruKyan. Because Aoi never got an acknowledgement of her size from the rest of the cast like this scene>>4252048. Never dialogue or a plot point.
>>4252053They're also missing on her figure >>4250868. Huh.
>>4252064>>4252048Mahiru looks mature enough to pass as a JD here >>4251924. Let just say that the collab and figures situations happen some months after the anime and Kiui having no tits will suddenly make sense now.
>>4252048I feel like artist genuinely aren't aware that she's supposed to have massive milkers because her anime outfit designs hide them completely.
>>4252071She needs more episodes to learn to love her milkers, with the help of a certain boob loving plastic surgery addict.
>>4251975She used her superchat money for the surgery.
>>4252312And here we thought her new GF liked big boobs.
>>4251975Schrödinger's tits.

>>4253105https://gagaga.tameshiyo.me/YORUKURA3Chapter 9 of the novel is up and what a chapter it is.I really love how deep it goes into Kano's insecurities, the lore behind Colorful Moonlight lyrics, Mahiru seeing the real Kano in her mom, and how this whole thing plays out just like an NTR doujin even more so than how it was depicted in the anime.Btw, middle school Kano thought of the mural's author whose name and face she didn't know as her "first love" 初恋.
>>4253332>Mero's passcode actually was Yukine's birthdayCutest couple. I'm sure Kano will approve.

So, if they all stopped dying their hair. Mei, Kano, and Mahiru would all have almost the same hair color. They would almost look like sisters.And then there is Kiui and her jet black kappa...
>>4255690Anon, that's all japs...
>>4255809But only Kiui has straight black hair naturally?
>>4255690Only Mahiru and Kano have similar brown hair. Mei has bright red hair.Btw, just started reading vol 1 of the light novel (chap1-2) and have already lost count of how many times Mahiru stopped in the middle of her narration just to say various versions of>Kano-chan is so pretty>Kano-chan is so cool>Kano-chan is so sparkly >On second thought, Kano-chan is actually a huge dummy >Kano-chan is so childish>Kano-chan is so clingyGirl is so unawarely gay, it's funny.
LN's final volume / Volume 3 is out, someone on discord says JP twitter fans noticed some MahiKano moments that were omitted from the anime.
This is what was posted on /a/:>ヤクセンはキャラの感情を描きたくて、竹下監督はメッセージを描きたくて、そこのぶつかり合いで物語を優先した結果「メッセージとしては軸があるけど、ストーリーとしてはブレてる」印象になった気がする。>で、アニオタはストーリー先行でメッセージを見るから、メッセージまで視線誘導出来てない。>Yaku-sensei wanted to portray the characters' emotions, while Director Takeshita wanted to convey a message, and as a result of the clash between the two, the story took priority, resulting in the impression that "the message has a core, but the story itself is a bit inconsistent.">And since anime fans look at the message first, it's not possible to guide their gaze to the message.>ノベライズのキャラ描写ちゃんとしてるんだよな...>アニメ版はイベント自体はフルで残ってるのに、会話の細かいニュアンスがカットされてるからダイジェストに感じるんだろうか?>The character descriptions in the novel are really good...>The event itself is preserved in its entirety in the anime version, but the finer nuances of the conversation have been cut out, so perhaps that's why it feels like a digest?>ヨルクラノベライズ9-10話「大好きなまひる」「大嫌いな歌・言葉」って表現が凄い頻度で出てくる。>In episodes 9-10 of the Yorukura novelization, the expressions "My beloved Mahiru" and "My hated song and words" appear with great frequency.
>>4256220>ヨルクラ10話最後の描写>小説版まひる「(袖で目を拭いながら)待っててね...必ずもっと上手くなって約束を果たすから。」アニメ版ではキウイとの電話シーンに移動して真剣なテンション>アニメ版まひる「よし!」>これ戦犯アニメ班だろ。まひるがアニメーターの野郎みたいなキャラになっとる。>The final scene of episode 10 of Yorukura>Novel version Mahiru: (wiping her eyes with her sleeve) Just wait for me... I'll definitely get better and keep my promise. In the anime version, the scene shifts to a phone call with Kiwi, and the tension becomes serious.>Anime version Mahiru: "All right!">This must be the war criminal animation team. Mahiru has turned into a guy who looks like an animator.
>小説版と比較してアニメ版でナーフされたポイント:>キウイと花音、キウイとまひるの会話が優先度低いからかカットされがち>花音の脳内まひるだらけな描写カットされがち>終盤のまひる、エゴイストの側面が強くなり過ぎて頑ななキャラに映り過ぎ>Points that were nerfed in the anime version compared to the novel version:>The conversations between Kiwi and Kano, and between Kiwi and Mahiru tend to be cut because they are low priority.>The scenes where Kano is filled with Mahiru inside her head tend to be cut.>Towards the end, Mahiru's egoistic side becomes too strong and she appears to be too stubborn.
That's fine and all but is Mei her glorious gay self in the novel?
Haven't gotten the time to actually read the full volume yet but I read chapter 9 and skipped to 12-13, regarding the gayness, it turns out that in chapter 9>Kano meant it when she wrote the lyrics "On the night sea where met you, I fell in love with your radiance" of Colorful Moonlight>The mural captured her essent of a jellyfish floating along flows without a will of itself, yet the way it shined so colorfully still without a care of how the world works inspired her and made she felt accepted even after she has lost everything after the scandal>"I knew neither their face nor name, but in a sense, that was my first love">The "moon" in the song was derived from the kanji of the jellyfish - 海月 - "sea moon" (Mahiru's handle name)>When they were fighting at the end of chapter 9, and Kiui and Mei were trying to interfere, Kano thought of them as "Outsiders who don't understand anything about me should just shut the fuck up">She was drived mad thinking that >"Mahiru is going to draw for that person from now on">"Mahiru is going to prioritize that person over me">"I'm not Mahiru's number 1 anymore">In Kano's eyes, Yukine was like a sun shining ever so brightly and strongly. It was why she was so drawn to her in the past, and why she was so afraid that Mahiru, another jellyfish, would do the same, abandoning her in favour of a stronger light source
>>4256270In chapter 12, on the lyrics of Deep Sea Swimming>"The chocolate I always in bulk" indeed referred to the Chocolate Egg in episode 3/5.>"If I be honest and tell her that I always put the jellyfish toy I received from her that day next to my pillow when I sleep, she probably is gonna call me heavy again, so I wouldn't say it even if my mouth was torn">"That is ---- the thing that the person I love love">"[The moon is beautiful] the text I received from you">"If you translate those words to English, the meaning would be ------ I got overly conscious because I knew of that story, I bet that wasn't what she was thinking at all, she probably just thought the moon was beautiful literally">"But then when I got out to the veranda and look at the moonlight, it felt like we were connected even when apart. At that time, a thought crossed my mind">"The me, here and now, love the light of the moon more than the sun"Btw, for your information, Mahiru's last name is Kouzuki- 光月 - light moon.There are several more details in the books, on Mahiru's side too, that it would be better if you could buy and read it for yourself or hoping that someone will do a full translation instead of relying on my flimsy summary.There is no ambiguity at all when it comes to Kano's feelings. It was a surprise to me how self-aware and honest she was the whole story despite all her self-doubts and other issues.Agree with the Japanese fan here >>4256220 that the lack of focus on the characters' emotions in these core episodes really hurt the pacing and overall quality of the anime. I hope they manage to find a good middle ground and overcome this issue if there would ever be some sort of sequel in animated form.
>>4256244Yes, Mei is as always her over the top gay self. Her first thought when she saw Nono-tan for the first time was >I have always loved beautiful things. When it comes to music and clothes, I'm always drawn to the beautiful ones. But this was the first time I realized... that it's the same when it comes to girls too.

Novel translation doko?
>>4245846>>4245848It was the whole kiss thing coming up in a second episode that sold it for me. Plus there's the hebe loving older lesbian. Hopefully they come back and do a continuation one day
>>4280718The staffs are all pretty keen on some sort of continuations/spin-offs. It all comes down to whether they manage to secure enough funds and time to do it, I think.The writer actually revealed in the afterword of LN vol3 that the anime's budget was not on the big size, they all had to do lots of volunteered overtime for the anime to turn out as beautiful as it looks. This was essentially a passion project for all those involved.

>>4283899gacha game when?
>>4280718>Hopefully they come back and do a continuation one dayIf they wanted to make it yuri, they would have made it yuri with the first season. Any sequel would be just as much ambigious friendship stuff like the first one, now that everyone they baited with the initial kiss jumped ship after the nothing ending. As usual, all we get is the cute fanart.
>>4286903>Any sequel would be just as much ambigious friendship stuff like the first oneNah, taking the novel into account going full yuri is the only way forward if there ever be a proper full length sequel and not just a short OVA. Kano is 100% aware of her romantic feelings for Mahiru but is having problems with her possessiveness, which wasn't actually solved at all by the end of the show btw, while Mahiru is in a weird state where she is fine with whatever as long as they're together.
Welp, they are back to flirting on the official account again.https://x.com/jeleechandayo/status/1833101041283309862?s=19https://x.com/jeleechandayo/status/1833108407114756425?s=19https://x.com/jeleechandayo/status/1833112238716277142?s=19

>>4287576As long as Mahiru will ride her legally this time.
>>4245444Random ass comment, but I find it interesting how commonly you see blondes and brunettes in a lesbian relationship. I like it though, so no complaints here.
>>4292388It's simply because light and dark contrast well with each other.
