The Day of R is starting right now.
is this even yuri?
>>4443936Does yuri even exist?
>>4443934why should I care about this romcom
Subs out
are pink haired girls more likely to be lesbians?
It was even worse than Sasakoi
>>4443949Yes cuz it resembles the thing they like the most
>>4443934I haven't cringed so hard in a while when it comes to yuri. Does this ever get good?>>4443956It is in terms of writing. We'll see how the production holds up.
>>4443966>>4443956It’s already good, yuri haterBack to /a/ with your cringe and writing excusesYou people keep shitting on every show: fanservice bad, subtext not yuri, too slow, production bad. Your agenda is too obvious
>>4443969Nigga is already spamming that everywhere Schizo excuse is going to be muh rushed muh nips hate it this time kek
>>4443958MURI MURI
>>4443962>Yes cuz it resembles the thing they like the mostMacarons?
https://twitter.com/honyasannohito/status/1941458455182835877Does this audio thing include Renako's reaction or is it solo shit for waifufags?
>>4443969>look at thread title>"day of r">same forced meme that has been spammed at /a/ for monthsyup, this is a tourist thread
>>4443934>Mai's butler appears in the OPHow much it will be adapted in the anime? We will see Mai, Ajisai and Renako dating?
>>4444027They adapted roughly 25% of the first novel, which is normal for a 3-novel per 12 episode adaptation. So there's no freaking way Renako will get a lover (this season).
>>4444020Read volume 4
>>4444039If you mean Renako is sleeping while hearing that >>4443086 there will probably be a SS about it.Anyway I found a preview (prehear?) and yes, it's only Kaho, so I'll just buy the regular edition without that audio thing, what a fucking waste.
>>4444043Kaho records those ASMRs to boost Renako's self-esteem so it wouldn't make sense for Renako to be in them
Says this then tries to rape her later
>>4444052It would make sense to have a girl react to them if you want to make a yuri omake. Look at Renako in that new illustration.
>>4443966>>4443946Assuming this isn't a schizopost from >4443956It gets better and more interesting when polycule starts, but I wouldn't call it "good" since it's still a romcom. I don't think the anime will get into the polycule part, so you'll have to read the LNs for that. Also, keep in mind that this series brings a lot of schizos, crossboarders from /a/ that are mangaonlies or reading ESL translations.
Is Renako just less funny Bocchi or does she develop into something else?
>>4444062Does Bocchi ever get a harem?
>>4444062Bocchi was funny?
>>4444065It's funny when she change shape
>>4444067It's a less funny Bocchi then
>>4444062She's also depressed.
>>4444056Fair enough, but you're meant to read them along with the accompanying short story. I guess they just wanted to stay authentic to the in-universe's ASMR (and cut cost on having two seiyuu)
I liked it, I think they overused the chibi stuff to save animation costs a bit, you can tell it's a bit cheap even without that although Mai looked stunning in some shots and Renako looked really cute.
>>4444062I think Renako's self esteem issues a better written/realised, they both exaggerate the effects to a degree but I think Renako's attempts to change throughout the story is underrated
Renako is so nice and cute. What is there to dislike about her?
>>4444080Only truly bad thing I think she does is make Mai feel like she has a shot then makes her settle for a poly relationship
>>4443958Kaho is the only one who didn´t score
>>4444062This time is the blonde extrovert who is autistic.
Full OP/ED when?
>>4444062She score, that´s something bochi will never do
>>4444075so far its everyone just standing around and talking: anime
does actual sex happen any time?
>>4444113Yes, Renako gets molested often...
>>4444115Molested isn't sexand if it is, then it's rape.So which is it
>>4444110How is this different to YagaKimi or whatever
>>4444116Molestation rape sex.
>>4444120YagaKimi does have actual characters with development and everything, rather than walking harem stereotypes
there's no such thing as yuri rape, just lesbian sex they didn't know they wanted
>>4444134I won't say watanare has better or stronger character development than Yagakimi but it does have it, this is only one episode though.
lmao
>>4444144I'm so glad we're gonna fly through the Satsuki volume, that was the worst volume by far.
Anime-onlyfag here, black hair chick has main rival vibes.
So isn't it going to be SubsPleased? I don't need subs but I want it to be ASW'd so I can archive a good H265 encode.I see that even Erai hasn't ripped it either, what's going on?
Muri muri
>Renako had a rich gorgeous girl that accept been into a poly relationship with her crush>still had to pretent of have a BfWtfox?
What is it about this series that attracts so many tourists?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wyyXL__AwlkIt's free on youtube.Yuri shall conquer the earth!
>>4443936It's poly/harem yuri
>>4444572It's essential /a/-core
>>4444608I assume you mean it's because it's a Romcom. But if that's the case I don't know what love is should be getting the same traction but I haven't seen it
>>4444614They probably don't know it exists or it doesn't make them horny enough for /a/ to care.
>>4444374Mai is the main rival...
Renako belongs to Haruna
>>4444727Mocchi...
>>4444727Haruna gets her own spinoff and harem.
Will it get a serious release or not?Why does it have to happen to one of the only two series worth watching?
>>4444935What constitutes a "serious" release?
Reading Vol 3 of the LN now and we are so back after how fucking stupid Vol 2 was
Full OP iso ut, it's so fucking addictive
Ajisai x Renako is the best ship.
>>4445065That's canon retard
https://twitter.com/AzJames34/status/1943006796085596232
>>4445024What's so stupid about volume 2?
>>4445262NTA but probably the whole "deciding who gets to marry Renako by who wins a video game" plot.At least it did have Renako showing some agency by going "I'm not some prize, I'll beat both of you"
>>4445280That's just them fucking around (they even say so later) though, they are still friends after all
>>4445280I am that anon and Satsuki and Renako's totally fake dating to get back at Mai thing just felt really dumb to me, I did like getting to know her more but as far as the story goes it sucked knowing most of the book was going to be taken up by this thing between Satsuki and Renako that obviously wasn't going to go anywhere and obviously wasn't going to bother Mai (she even gave Renako her blessing). As that anon said, the fps thing was pretty good though.
>>4445417>I did like getting to know her moreA whole Volume to learn the cold and insensitive ice queen is actually really nice, who saw that one coming, I bet you're really looking forward to Kaho's volume
>>4445417>>4445527You're probably reading the wrong series if you dislike stupid hijinks. Most of the stories will be about Renako getting into dumb situations that will require her to get physically intimate with other girls. And yes, volume 4 is very fun, even though the 2nd half is barely about Kaho.
>>4445527>Volume 2 is Satsuki using Renako to get back at Mai for personal reasons>Main takeaway is that she's "actually really nice"What?
Episode 2 previewhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=796VnxdMBWs
>>4445579Well, not sure if you're anime-only or not but if you knew Satsuki's personal reasons...After hearing that Renako is spending time with Ajisai, Mai flies back home from Europe just to crash their date.After Ajisai leave Mai pushes Renako down and starts trying to have her way. Only thing that stops it is Haruna opening the door and Renako slapping Mai.Mai runs crying to Satsuki and is like "I know you like me, so I want you to to me what I did to Renako so I can feel what it's like to have someone I don't have feelings for force themselves on me.Obviously Satsuki kicks her ass out, but still points Renako in the right direction to save Mai from making even more stupid decisions.The fact Satsuki eventually forgives Mai shows she is actually pretty nice.
>>4443934unironically, needs more rape
>>4446215Can you just fuck off to /h/ or something?
>>4446215starting to get a little boring
>>4444727Would it be gr- I mean funny if Renako's mom gets added to her harem?
Mai is a typical shoujo/josei manga love interest: a high status womanizer Casanova that is obsessed for some reason with the bland protagonist.Personally it makes me seeth as the same behavior would come off as creepy if it came from an unattractive person such as myself.
>>4446375But Renako isn't bland?
>>4446375All four heroines are shoujo love interest archetypes. Mai is the assertive rapechad, Satsuki the cold tsundere, Ajisai the kind prince and Kaho the shota gremlin.
>>4446375What the other anon said, they all play on classical otome archetypes including the villain and gaijin tropes later on
>>4446375I hope this translate to women giving a chance to Watanare
>>4446375Renako isn't a bland protagonist though.
>>4446379Do rapechads in shoujo get cucked as hard as Mai does? I feel like at least that is something new and innovative.
>>4446807But Mai won and got two girlfriends
>>4446813She is clearly the third wheel though. No poly relationship is equal, both Renako and Ajisai prefer each other. You could say Mai is only a part of it at all because of pity.
>>4446830Nice cope

Amazing episode
>>4446942>streaming>on youtube>digital racism>retarded titleThis shit's so annoying. I haven't watched the first episode yet. Why won't SubsPlease do their fucking job?
>>4446949Subsplease have only ever ripped from Crunchyroll and HiDive. Now that more streaming sites get shows like Netflix, Amazon, Youtube, OceanVeil (this one’s for ecchi and hentai, mostly), Disney+/Hulu, you should be open to use Toonshub, Erai or Varyg who rip from these servicesOf course, there’s also the cases of shows not licensed by burgers at all where the only source of subs is Bilibili or some other channel or site for China or SEASomething to keep in mind for the future, since there’s no gurantee this will be the only yuri that falls outside of the 2 sites covered by SP
>>4446973There is nobody doing regular good-quality H265 releases for bloated non-SubsPlease rips.Erai's HEVC and DKB aren't that good. I hoped Judas would pick it up but after a week I guess that won't be the case and ASW only does SubsPlease. So there are only subpar releases until, maybe, Neo will make a BD release.It's incredible how all the good fansub groups that made raw-hunting, timing and translation from zero completely disappeared now that they would only have to fix the bad subs of official releases and make good encodes.And why won't SubsPlease rip other sites? Horrible did and Erai still does.
>>4446996Because SP don’t want to and have never wanted. So you wither stop nitpicking about video quality and get what you can or get used to not watching certain shows. SP have never budged from their CR and Hidive only stance. And it doesn’t look like they will any time soon
Seeing Renako cherish Mai enjoying a hobby dear to her heart was really heartwarming, also well done Renako for getting her PS4 upgraded to a PS5 it seems
>>4447036I think the hug-kiss was actually one of the more sensual ones I've seen in a non hentai...
Wait, is Episode 3 going to be when people start to turn on Mai
>>4447065Doubt it, most I have seen so far is people blowing the issues up, most of the time it is from manga readers that doesn't even read the series
>>4447069Well if they hate the pantsu scene I figure they'd have issues with Mai laying the kisses on Renako in the bath but I've never seen anyone do it som aybe it's all good. I think they're going to tone it down a bit though
>>4447069Regardless, the 'incident' should be in next week timeline wise
Mai loves Renako for no reason but also Renako wants to be Mai's Best Friend for no reason.This writing is kind of slop, is this what all harems are like?Well, at least it's yuri.
>>4447090>Mai loves Renako for no reasonshe literally says why in Episode 1 and I don't think they can make Renako's case any clearer than they do multiple times an episode
>>4447093Yes they say, but you can't just have characters announce the way they feel.That makes me feel angry
>>4447100I mean they show it too, did you not see how happy Renako was to have a friend enjoying gaming with her?
>>4447093>"I fell in love with you because you're the first person I opened up to">Satsuki that saw her crying, gave her a place to stay when she ran away from home, fought her mother for her: "guess I'll go fuck myself"
>>4447124Watanare is a story about Satsuki being taken for granted.
>>4447124Renako can't understand tsundere.
Renako & her girlfriends.
>>4447124I mean, yeah. Satsuki's understandable annoyance at Mai is the impetus for the whole second novel.
>>4447124Mai annoys Satsuki.
>>4447079The only fags so far going muh boundary muh consent so are dynasty tier reddit fags lol >>4447084Seems so
>>4447079>the pantsu sceneWhat scene now?
>Mai is called a creep and a predatorIt's over.
>>4447410>triggers troons and faggotsI will now watch your show
>>4447410>wikipedia quoting random internet posts by some total nobodies that nobody knows like if they had any valueWill they start to post twitter screenshots too?
>>4447410These fags types are the only ones who keep having melty about the series and keep "warning" people based on hearsay from the other same type of fags It's a full circle now kek
>>4447410Over for who?
>>4447513Ajisai
>>4447410>Mai behaves like the average assertive male love interest>ew no she's a rapist!faggots, the bunch of them
>>4447525But those people would love Ajisai and claimed she saved Watanare.
>>4447410Do these guys hate women or something? Rape is a staple of female-aimed media
Did Haruna join the harem yet?
>>4447410You're not even posting negative commentary that's just one fucking opinion about one character.
>>4447566It's almost like most people's problem with the show is one single character.
Can't wait to see the reactions in a some places after the next episode if they think Mai is toxic now.
>>4447525Ajisai is the wholesome one.
>>4447547>But those people would love Ajisai and claimed she saved Watanare.I mean, they would be right.
>>4447552In volume 7 she told Renako in a joking manner that she can be her girlfriend if things don't work out with Mai.
Mai is so goddamn smug, you can have a folder of her face for reaction pics in just 2 episodes
How come no one ever says the word lez or gay in yuri like these?It's literally about girls being girlfriends with girls
>>4447589What places? I am only seeing praises
>>4447648Some do like in love with the villaines.But mostly anime avoid it because it tiggers homophobes and makes it to political for some idiots
>>4447035>>4447036She clearly likes it, like a lot and doesn't mind it Does anime need to more clear so even retards would get it?
>>4447655No means noIf they no then you should stopEnd of story
>>4447655I think they even adapted her monologuing so even retards would get itUnfortunately retards would be retards
>>4447631>jokingIt's call testing the water
>>4447648Those are Western terms, Orientals have different ideas about sexuality.
>>4447656With a mentality like that, no one would ever fuck.
>>4447669Indecisive people like Renako wouldn't and shouldn't. Sex is for people who know what they want like Mai.
>>4447654Well >>4447668 isn't totally right and definitely has an ideologically driven idea of an insular Japan but is definitely getting at something.>in love with the villainesI'm not against manga saying "gay" or "lesbian" but the Villainess author is this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ROVDL6xGfCE and it's usually either people who are in this ballpark or think yuri should include it who think using those specific identity terms is an important issue. Plenty of authors are open about identity or outright politically progressive on social media without feeling the need to make a huge deal about it in their work. Even if you're just posting "I want a girlfriend" as a woman isn't that already a real-world statement going beyond "homosexuality is only ok in drawings"?Yuri readers/viewers who actually think your average author is against real-world homosexuality tend to just get dunked on. Some Japanese guy went "YagaKimi is good because the author doesn't make controversial statements like gay marriage should be legalized, it's just fiction" and surely he got ass-patted for it by regressive Japan right? No the author went "shut up, I do support gay marriage" and he deleted his account.
>>4447656>No means noActually, no means yes.
>>4447656But I don't hear a no
>>4447655>>4447658>actually went with the "she didn't scream/resist hard enough" defensenever beating the rape apologist allegation.
>>4447688Where is her resistance?
>>4447690What does "we are friends" mean to you?
>>4447686And yes means anal.
>>4447656Clearly you don't understand Japanese have many different kinds of nos, unlike filthy uncivilized gaijin.
>>4447648In traditional east Asian culture, It's a crass means to express your sexual preferences. You have to express it in an indirect way to convey that you're a sophisticated individual that should be taken seriously.At least something like saying, 'Oh they're like <known gay person's name>?' rather than 'Oh, they're GAY/LEZ?'
>>4447691Anal
>>444762Read this in an LN thread, not sure if it’s anon spreading misinformation but apparently Ajisai is more excited about the idea of having a threesome with Renako and Mai in the future than Mai is
>>4447775Meant to reply to >>4447629
>>4447410A predatory behavior only appears to be creepy when it comes from an ugly or low status person. If it comes from an attractive and high status individual, it is more than welcome.
>>4447776She is wholesome, as in "The whole is more than the sum of its parts"
>>4447722I call bullshit. Chinese and Korean comic have no problem with it.
>>4447814Traditional, not zoomer gen who have been westernized.
>>4447814There’s also the one scene in WataOshi
>>4447722Its just a japanese autism thing where they shy away from explicitly "othering" themselves.
The subs are fucking shit, are they MTL or something? A lot of made up shit, how can't you even know what picrel means? The same phrase was wrong in Hikikomari too. >>4121013
>>4447823You mean that one scene that make weebs seethe for weeks and destroy any chance of S2 despite Crunchyroll's support?
>>4447988Its soo fucking funny to see how much true yuri anime filter normies and exposed homophobes easily on youtube
>>4447961Why not tell us what it is supposed to say professor
>>4447988>>4447999>Homophobic weebs mad that the yuri show about a girl in love with a girl brings up homosexuality
>>4448005Weebs are not bright, it's well established
>>4448005Weebs tend to be on the far right
>>4448027only the terminally online ones
New chapter translatedhttps://mangadex.org/chapter/bc8909fe-c4e7-42ce-b6bc-87d41e13043c
>>4448027And the far left ones are all troons who like to tell lesbians they are actually men. Many such cases!
>>4448040Kaho you little mesugaki succubus
>>4448044
>>4448034Someone like >4448042?
>>4448105No, pointing out how they are terminally online isn't the thing
>>4447775LNniggas for this are not to be trusted, particularly if they are from /u/
>>4448005Weebs are not very, but for them there exists a wall of seperation, because when they see two gay anime girls being cute they can excuses while making cras jokes or fantasies but once the same anime starts talking about homosexuality properl that seperation for them shatters because suddently it makes it to real for them.Its like sleeper agents phrase for them that they have been traineed to dislike because it suddently means something is "woke" for them.tldr if they dont heard about homosexuality talk then they can cope that they are just watching anime for cute girls having fun, because they dont want to hear about issues because they know they are part of the problem.
>>4448111Good lord is English your 12th language?
>>4447988>>4448005>>4448023>>4448027>>4448111We were talking about Japanese cultural standards influencing portrayals of homosexuality in anime (and I pointed out how a Japanese guy saying "YagaKimi is good because it's just fiction and not making controversial statements about things like gay marriage" got *immediately* dunked on by everyone including the author, so clearly it's not so easily simplified as "they don't touch upon LGBT identities because the audience only accepts it in cartoons") and now you're making it about "weebs" and the idea that the average western anime fan is some far-right retard who melts down about the idea of people in same-sex relationships having equal rights.I wholeheartedly defended the WataOshi scene initially (and I could point to my posts doing so with the exact same wanky tl;dr writing style) but now I get why people took issue with it because, taking general social context and also creator's personal context into account, it does feel like the author (might have some kind of intersex condition? either way, obviously someone socialized as a guy who came to identify as female later in life) might have been trying to "prove" something through it; like "I'm legit, I promise, look at this". There are gay & lesbian manga authors who are very openly political on social media but don't have scenes executed that way in their work, and I understand why people might want to criticize such a fantastical escapist series having an on-the-nose PSA scene like that. Freaking Citrus of all things tackled homophobia and it wasn't worded that way. I'm kinda torn about it since I like showa-era authors who go "ok time to do activism now" in their manga and I enjoy those scenes but given the context I get why WataOshi was criticized. Yeah some of the people who did it might be "only okay with homosexuality in cartoons and not IRL" types, but I don't think it's all of them.
Does the LN have any Kaho romance, or is it currently all just Mai and Ajisai?
>>4448175To add to this though I do think people who enjoy gay relationships in fiction but think it shouldn't be normalized in real life are retarded and should be called out. Not changing my mind about that.
