Where were you when MahoTsukai Precure 2 did the /u/nthinkable?Wonderful Pretty Cure ends on Jan 26Kimi to Idol Pretty Cure begins on Feb 2Previous: >>4301230
>>4359336You got me, not gonna lie.
>>4359336I watched it live Anon, 00.00 AM (because my timezone is two hours behind Japan).
>>4359336Will this turn Japan’s next generation gay?
Toei is now embracing yuri?
>>4359396>embarrassingftfy
>>4359393This show isn't being aired in a children's timeslot.
>>4359418Unfortunate.
>>4359427Fortunate.
>>4359418Maho2 was advertised in the morning time slot right after WP. The kids will find a way.
If you turn up the volume, you can hear the very intentional kiss sound effect when they kiss in the transformation scene
>>4359886This is not how friends are supposed to look at each other
Is it not?
>>4359336What are some other instances of this in yuri-ish anime?All I could think of are these two:https://archiveofsins.com/data/u/image/1722/27/1722274580971714.gifhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mP6PUA0e3oU
>>4360031
>>4359915>>4359922
>>4360031It's still not the same. The kiss was implied but not hidden. In fact, it's shamelessly accentuated instead. Such audacity.
>>4360031>>4360037There's also the fabric ball sequence in Assault Lily, I think also the ending of Jet Girls where many argue that the kiss can be heard.
>>4360156>kiss was implied but not hiddenThe lips are hidden, by that logic the gochiusa one would be the most audacious.
https://www.pixiv.net/en/artworks/74660104Here's something you don't see every day, some artist back in 2019 drew quite a few yuri pics of her self-insert OC with Mirai.
>>4360164The lips are hidden, the fact that they kissed each other is not. On the contrary, the kiss is actively celebrated. That's the difference.
>>4360031>>4360037While I enjoy the fanservice, it's kinda sad then to see the characters act as if the kiss never happened and keep treating each other as friends.
>>4360169That's why I said that some (Japanese) people claim that you could hear the kiss, but I'm not entirely sure, although that anime was stupidly romantic anyway.
I deleted the post because I remembered, it was during the camera pan before the hug, I did raise the volume and manage to hear it at the time.And yeah, despite the raunchy character designs it turned out to be a hidden gem.
>>4360171That's a good conclusion if you never paid attention to what happened next and what that whole scene really means, remember that 2 of them moved in together after the finale.>>4360176It's good to know that it was true, all the unsuccessful series should take the yuri route and be remembered for at j2mgleast that.
>>4360180>2 of them moved in together after the finaleAkanesasu Shoujo? Even in the sequel game they were still friends though. Assault Lily too. Gochiusa was as canon as any OP, which means not at all.And Mirai and Liko are the most obvious case, since it happened at the beginning rather than the end, and obviously they aren't suddenly being romantically involved.
>>4360190>it happened at the beginning rather than the endYou made me realize that that from now on they're going to kiss twice a week, regardless of whatever is going on with their -my best friend lives in a different world and I rarely meet her- subplot, that's going to be awkward.
>>4360190>suddenly being romantically involvedI just imagined it happening and 95% of the audience going "wait, they kissed?!" cause they missed the frames.
>>4360167>https://www.pixiv.net/en/artworks/74660104A lot of boob action. I love an honest girl.
Just watched the first epPretty good so far but it's been awhile since I last watched the original anime so I completely forgot that Hachan literally became the goddess of their universe
>>4360215>from now on they're going to kiss twice a weekIsn't this a double-edged sword?It pretty much locks them out of ever going through actual romantic developments, it would be odd if they did something like:>*kiss*>*kiss*>when I'm with liko, my chest tightens, what is this feeling?>*kiss*>*kiss*>I think I'm in love with liko, but I'm afraid she doesn't feel the same way>*kiss*>*kiss*>I'm so happy liko feels the same way, now we can finally have our first ki-... oh.
>>4360438You're taking it way too literally, plot relevant developments aren't conveyed with blink and miss frames, they're more like easter eggs for hardcore fans to dig out, but in universe they haven't actually kissed.
>>4360438I'm glad you already know what's going to happen but I personally have no idea. Precure, Maho specifically, adult oriented, yuri. We're in uncharted territory.The show's already crazier than I expected.
>>4360190Akanesasu has no sequel game. The only game closed before the anime finished, and I doubt they’d spoil the girls getting together, so can’t be a sequelStop talking bullshit
>>4360438No different from Symphogear XV ending implying a HibiMiku confession after all the romantic shit they do and say since S1
>>4360635Yeah, I can't tell what direction the show will take either. It seems close to the original Maho so far, but I wouldn't be completely off-guard if the show revealed it was going full yuri drama come episode 3 or 4.
>>4360638You have no idea what you are talking about, the anime finished airing in 17.12.2018, the game ran from 15.10.2018 to 31.01.2019, and it told a story taking place after the events of the anime.You're making it very obvious that you didn't play it and you're just making shit up to support your headcanon.
>headcanonMassive red flag.
>>4360710No one played it. Thus, why it closed You’re making up shit about the game to deny yuri
Give it to me straight, sisters, what is happening in the OP with that college dude silhouette? Especially since it happens right at the beginning of the OP, it makes it seem like he will play a major role. Its the only thing that keeps my excitment at bay. Is anything known about this? Or about the director?
>>4360756It's kinda wierd, because they did make a bit of big deal out of him, but he's also completely absent from almost all the promotional material and merch. So who knows honestly.
>>4360761Yeah, i'll wait with watching it this time. With what happened with the last seasons Precure i really don't feel so good. I don't even feel good typing about this since i come off as some cheap concern troll. I just don't know what to make of Mahoutsukai.
>>4360756The director is probably just a puppet director here just like he was for Otona (where he was subject to the will of Washio and Narita basically). The producer, writer, and probably the rest of the staff are hardcore yurifags. Only way het would be involved would be with maybe Haa-chan or to facilitate an actual yuri ending.Some people seem to get the idea that his heart being prominent has something to do with love, but it's all black with a red outline. Maybe he's just evil.
>>4360768>I just don't know what to make of Mahoutsukai.How about you actually watch it?
>>4360756He's the main villain, why wouldn't he be featured
>>4360739>No one played it.300,000 pre-registered users, then it quickly lost them on account of being a shitty game.You're embarrassing yourself.
>>4360778No. I'll wait. Thats how i do it with shows im unsure if they just try to fuck you over. Same with Go Hands this season; ill wait. If i don't invest myself i won't get hurt
>>4360896>Same with Go Hands this seasonWell, I'm nothing if not careful about these things too, and I agree about the red flags in maho, but there's literally zero male presence in momelily, worse case scenario right now is everyone winding up dead in the end, though I doubt it given the attitude on the anime twitter.The girls are also all paired up in promotional art, I'd only drop it if a boy showed up.
>>4360901>winding up dead in the endalmost as bad as getting bamboozled by clear yuri imagery only for them to pull some time shenanigans heavily implying one of the main girls has a boyfriend while the japanigger that thought such a plot is a good idea, appears at night in your room and whispers in your ear "bazinga desu".No, i'll wait.
>>4360901There are no red flags. No one's going to stand in the way between Mirai and Liko. It'd be insanity.
>>4360904Welp, it's not like I can claim that's an impossible scenario, but given how few yuri-friendly series are there in most anime seasons, I normally draw the line at male presence, or signs pointing to it at least.>>4360905>No one's going to stand in the way. It'd be insanity.If I had a dollar.
>>4360907Anon, the staff was even worried about adding Haa-chan but then decided it's okay because she's Mirai and Liko's daughter.
>>4360875You think that number is impressive? It didn’t even last a year. Even disasters like Takt Op, Engage Kiss or Blue Reflection Sun lasted longerIt didn’t have enough players and that’s a fact. Now, stop denying yuriAkanesasu is maintext. Cooe and seethe, hetshitter
>>4360896I mean the original show, you fucking retard.
>>4360910Don’t take hetahitters concern troll seriously
>>4360917I already watched the original show you fucking imbecile. Why even bring it up, we talk about current Mahoutsukai here.>>4360918Oh, fuck off.
>>4360915Who said it's impressive? All I did was disprove your ridiculous claim, enough moving goal posts.We literally posted game shit here on /u/ at the time, screenshots and everything, but I guess you weren't even around then, go figure.I don't know if yours is a low effort attempt at trolling, or if you're really as desperate as you sound, nor do I care; you already showed and admitted that you know nothing about it, so I'm done humoring you.
>>4360919You fuck off and stop pushing het nonsenseHetshitters like you don’t belong here
>>4360922>say you wait because you don't like the silhouette of some college guy 2 secs into the OP >Y-YOU BRING HETSHIT HERE A-AND BAD VIBES P-PLEASE GO AWAYUnironically kill yourself. Being wary is natural, no matter how schizo you get and call others concern trolls.
>>4360921The only one trolling here is the one denying explicit yuri: youAnd the hetshitters talking about red flags or whatever, desperate for hetAll of you can fuck off with your anti yuri concern trollingYou don’t know anything about the game either. You’re just taking advantage of the fact it was only in JP and now dead to make up a narrative about how it undoes the anime yuri and goes the frienship route because no one can go in the game now to prove you wrong. Kill yourself
I think you retards lost the plot and dont even understand what a hetshitter is at this point.
>>4360923Villains have always been in Precure OPs with the exception of Wonderful because they wanted to keep Gaon and pals hidden (even then you still have the Garugarus there)Your argument is hetshitter schizo nonsense
>>4360925Someone denying yuri to say it’s het and the girls like whatever male exists. Exqctly what the concern tards are doing here and have been doing since that one kid in Healer GirlsNever proven right even once
>>4360926Like i saidy i'll wait. I won't invest myself into it, especially not after what happened with the last show. Once the room is clear and nee-sans give the green light i'll just binge it. You can go get yourself raped by your hetshitter now, fucking mouthbreather
>>4360930Womderful has a completely different staff and was het from the beggingStop the concern trolling already, hetshitterThe problem is you ignore all evidence that doesn’t fit your concern agenda because you want it to be hetIf you qant to wait. do so and shu up with the conxern trolling
>>4360931did you have a stroke?
>>4360931>you want it to be hetWhat happened to this shithole? Is this some new form of retardation?
>>4360931>If you qant to wait. do so and shu up with the conxern trollingHoo girl... imouto, you alright?
>>4360932>>4360933>>4360934Yeah. What happened here? Why are people desperate to push het narratives here?
>>4360935Ask the one calling everyone hetshitters while fuming over her keyboard
>>4360936You mean the only person here not denying yuri to push some het ship involving the villain?How is saying a show is yuri and that any het is delusions from malicious actors acting in bad faith a het agenda?Fuck off if you hate Mirai/Liko so much and want them with a dude
>>4360937>Fuck off if you hate Mirai/Liko so much and want them with a dudeNobody is saying this. That is you shitting up this place. And i start to believe that is your new way to shitpost. Stop replying to me.
>>4360933It's just a couple vocal guys, but they've been at it for a while, it's an obession with averting your eyes from anything uncomfortable, seems they mistook this message board for a hug box.
>>4360937why are you talking about yourself in the third person? also>if you qant to wait. do so and shu up with the conxern trollingbetrays your intellect
>>4360939Yeah. For some readon, hetshitters thinks thus is their hugbox to doompost and concern troll
>>4360942Because maybe if I describe my stance like that, you can see how insane it is to come here to claim the show will go het and then attack anyone who thinks the idea is insane
>>4360945No, it just makes you look even more insane.
>>4360938You’re saying it when you talk about your het delusionsThe evidence is weak as hell. What you post is exactly what hetahitters post “delusional yuritards can’t see how obvious it is the ahow is straight”. This is your narrative: this is obviously not wrlcome in a yuri board about a yuri ahow that has shown 0 hints of het beyond males existingRemember when people used the Healing Good OP to ship Nodoka and Daruizen?. And then nothing happened and Nodoka’s final arc was her accepting that not wanting to help a literal toxic asshole doesn’t make her a bad person
This is a yuri board. If you want to talk about men so much then go to /a/ with your offtop.
>>4360946Says the person spreading nonsensical het agendas in the yuri boardWhem did it become insane to defend yuri here?
>>4360947>>4360949Mentally ill on cooldown. Can't even type properly anymore.
>>4360948Apparently your stance is insane, and means you want a hugbox or whateverWatch the cocksuckers say you’re me and I’m samefagging
>>4360950>muh typosLess mentally ill than posting het ships with no evidence here and saying a yuri show is not yuri
Oh hey, its that G Gundam attack thing, done by the main couple.https://x.com/yoshiyama_yuu/status/1879298519493923143
>>4360935Yuri got too popular in the last couple of years, giving rise to schizos who make it their full-time job to shit on it at every turn.
>>4360963Another post that is magically me samefagging (or so will the “merely concerned innocent yuri fans” here say). Incredible
>>4360963I guess shitposters got to some of the mentally ill posters here so hard, they fabricate hetshitters whenever they can.
>>4360959The insane thing is thinking the yuri-est precure season ever (I am talking about MTP in general, not just Mirai Days) being produced by people who actively want MiraLiko to happen is going to become het.I tell you this much, Aisle is very likely to be gay, because he is pretty much the copy of Kushi (The Principal's "best friend") from the first season.He follows some kind of prophecy (or "Outline" as he called it) like Kushi, he used Deusmast power like Kushi, he is attacking Haa-chan like Kushi.Isao Murayama said in Star Twinkle interview that his regret with MTP is he failed to make the villain "interesting". So I take Aisle is his second attempt to make Kushi, but more interesting this time.And as Kushi is gay, so would Aisle.The opening even has moment where Mirai and Liko flyby and split the boys and the girls into different corner.Let boys with boys, and girls with girls, and all that shit.Honestly, that's the extend of how much I am willing to talk about man in /u/, because there are so many Mirai Days fanart, it is a waste to spend time talking about man, instead of posting the new fanarts.I'll let you two talk nonsense about het.
>>4360968>LikoYou have to stop posting.
>>4360947>>Remember when people used the Healing Good OP to ship Nodoka and Daruizen?They never stopped even when the evidence said otherwise and Nodoka had genuine chemistry with Hinata (the movie is a gift in that sense), it's the typical hetfag narrative, glorifying het or directly making it up, while the yuri is there and makes more sense (it happened in Im@s CG, whoever tells you that "Takeuchi P" is a romantic interest, is lying)>>4360968The boy is seen as an obvious antagonist or related to a possible antagonist, he may be a minion or product of another antagonist as well (which happened in the Maho DX movie and Maho's own series)Don't use Otona as an example when the series is a sequel to Yes 5 (a het and bad season) the inclusion of Splash Star was so forced that I bet everyone forgot that Saki had a sister and Mai a brother (ironically their dialogues were about how Mai only talked about Saki)>>4360963This is no joke, they still show up in the general thread every chance they get to deny yuri from those series, but they don't have the balls to go to the threads for those same seriesNot to mention those people who just don't seem to acknowledge where yuri is or use very shallow excuses to pretend they're right, from the silly "CGDCT is for waifus" to pretending that any musical anime (bands or idols) isn't yuri for reasons (Precure is also thrown in there for some reason).
Has people's male paranoia reached the point where we have posters worried about Mahou Precure of all things going het? Come on now, stop it. There is literally no basis for this worry.
>>4360997Reiwa hasn't been kind to yuri...
>>4360999You can give concrete examples and you will realize that it is nothing more than an exaggeration and those same examples are stupid at best.
>>4360921>>4360924I was on those threads from the beginning of the anime to the end (I was the one with the fanarts) and the only thing I remember was that the game is not only not a sequel to the anime, but it takes place in another universe and even the girls from the anime appear in that game (proving that they are different characters from the ones in the game) and nothing stated denies the main couple in any way.
>>4360997It's called trolling, and it has been quite popular these days, in case the deleted posts didn't tip you off.
>>4361007We've talked about it on /u/ before, you guys could really just do some research instead of getting all defensive.The game takes place in the same multiverse, and you do meet the same main characters from the anime (not just alter egos), who are aware of all events that transpired in it.It doesn't disprove the main couple, it simply shows that they didn't become girlfriends at the end of the anime, just like it didn't happen in any of the other series that had suggestive "kiss" frames/sounds, Maho2 included.
>>4360710NTA, but I have played the game, collected every character, I have even recorded most of it (I admit I didn't play the post-shutdown part as the phone I had it on broke soon after), and unless you mean something other than the gacha game, I can assure you it is not a sequel, it's a completely alternate version that takes the core elements (same general cast, parallel world idea, and the henshin hero thing) but changes the setting and does a wholly different story from the anime. How the girls get the sliding and transformation powers is different, the suits are different, the alternate worlds are completely different, there is an original protagonist too (well, not that much of a protagonist in the end, neither of the girls was a true protagonist in the game really). The story was clearly written separately from the anime, based on the same concept outline by Uchikoshi who just seemingly left the whole project after writing it.Sadly the game itself wasn't particularly yuri though, the game story focused more on whatever the hell was going on in the alternate worlds (the forest world, the tech city and monster world, and the magic world? hard to recall after all these years), and not so much on the cast interactions.
>>4361023The problem is that the game doesn't take place after the anime, the game existed almost at the same time as the anime (I even remember the images of the collaboration with CCS) the game simply lasted a little bit after the end of the anime, before closing completely and becoming offline.All of that information comes from someone who was actively playing the game at the time.
>>4361023>>4361027 here, now I'm beginning to doubt myself after seeing some screenshots. Did this happen in the post-shutdown update? I honestly don't recall this at all.
>>4361027>>4361028We've talked about this very issue too, references to anime events were pointed out, with screenshots to boot, this whole discussion is a repeat of what we had years ago.Don't remember if it was only content in the offline version of the app.
>>4361029I doubt it, that anon (thanks for coming back) kept us informed of the game during the anime broadcast and we had really cool conversations in those threads even when the anime had ended.
>>4361033>>4361034Damn, I need to re-read the game. I hope I can still get the offline version. Sucks to have shit memory.
>>4361036
>>4361035Okay, I've traced back the discussions and everything. This is something that happens in chapters 6-8, which I didn't read because I couldn't play the offline version back then. At least it's not my memory being shit this time. Should've stuck around in the threads for longer. I hope I will at least remember this and not embarrass myself next time the discussion comes up.
>yuri haters using ChatgptHetshitters desperate to deny yuri showing they lack a brain and need machines to think for themThe true face if “concerned people”
>kissing in front of MofurunI for one would be uncomfortable.
>>4361360>>4361361Was a cat fine too?
>>4361987Not according to mentally-ill leddit mods.
>>4361992 Now that Gaou is revealed to be the human Subaru larping in a fursuit, and they still push the Zakuro ship, the reddit mods look retarded for banning Mayu x Yuki because Yuki’s a cat
I finally watched the first episode of Maho 2 (I'm going to do it on Thursday)Those who said that the new antagonist, who clearly did something evil in his first scene on screen, who clearly had evil intentions in the first place, who summoned an evil teddy bear and basically threatened Mirai in a clearly evil way, was something het, have serious mental problems.Otherwise it shows what things will be like if they plan to make more of these sequels, jokes about beer and drunk people, of course.
>>4362493yes, but this is a yuri board, where they talk about yuri and precure shines when it's yuri (it sucks when it's het) the circumstances vary for each series, but the dog boy has not shown any "good" traits or literally any hint to say that he is a romantic interest, saying otherwise would only make you a vulgar hetfag.
>>4362479>evilNot in on the het talk, but the first episode hinted pretty heavily that he isn't just one of those cackling villains who are out to take over the world, he strikes me as the 'end justifies the means' type.There's probably some sob story involving the depressed dog.
>>4362479Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if Airu/Isle ended up gay like the first antagonist of Maho. If het did happen somehow, it would be with Haa-chan or Mofurun. The only way Mirai or Liko get involved with a het relationship is if it were to facilitate an unambiguously yuri ending like marriage or something.
Mods should ban anyone who even mentions males in Precure threads.
>>4362598>>Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if Airu/Isle ended up gay like the first antagonist of Maho.That would be in harmony with the idea of making a more interesting villain, Maho's final villain didn't even have his own voice, but rather the mix of his 4 henchmen, although Pierrot wasn't better and had his own VA.>>MofurunThe funny thing is that she became the victim of the hetfags (Even without any real het) they put her together with Olva and the bear from the movie without any irony.
Serious question here: is Mofurun a voyeur? She really seems to be into watching Mirai and Liko kiss
>>4362846There's nothing weird about enjoying seeing your moms kissing.
I wonder how much we are going to see Mirai's friends.They look cute with each other...
>>4362846It kinda seemed like a wedding ceremony.
>>4362887I hope schizo-chan is doing alright
