Okay, I'll split this into two parts.GHOST CONCERT 3, the yuri subplot remains the most interesting thing it has to offer, since they seem to be dedicating some time to it, If they ruin it, it'll be their fault for creating false expectations. Now, regarding the plot, the motivations of a character who wasn't very relevant, the music is still not good, the action is unacceptable, and the ending is as bad as or worse than the opening.
>>4550936>GHOST CONCERTIt's been very obvious since the first episode that they aren't targeting the yurifag audience, we know by now how subtext series do it, and whoring out the MC to some men is not it, even if she's possessed or something.If they didn't care about alienating them from the start, they won't care about throwing bones at them later either.
is it justified to not want to watch cosmic princess because I’m put off that the original story is hetshit? I don’t disagree it’s yuri i just want an original yuri story is all which is where we’ve been failing for years. I’ll still watch it since there’s nothing much in this season.
>>4550921Thought this was Momoka and Nina for a second
we're truly getting drunk!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vF_nXxo_Ra8
>>4550950And so are the animators!
>>4550943Bamboo cutter is a thing in-universe too, and you don't really need to know anything about the story to understand the plot. It's like not reading watayuri or dear flowers that bloom in days of yore because the original class-S stories that are referenced in them often ended in hetshit
>>4550950I'm liking this different style each episode thing. Too bad I'm too uninformed to know who's responsible for each.
>>4550943>is it justified to not want to watch cosmic princessNo, it's not. Go watch it right now.
>>4550940>>It's been very obvious since the first episode that they aren't targeting the yurifag audienceAs I said, they've put quite a bit of emphasis on childhood friends, and the blue-haired girl acts similarly to Hifumi when it comes to Aoba, so saying there's no yuri is a lie, since even that girl was happy not to have to share the other girl anymore, since she's legally dead and her old friends are no longer relevant to the series.>>and whoring out the MC to some men is not itAre you referring to something that happened in one episode and ceased to be relevant even to Cleo, who actually did it, and now it's just a power-up?>>they won't care about throwing bones at them later either.I understand how awful the first episode was, but when I actually watched it, the "het" part was smaller and more irrelevant to the whole narrative than I expected. It just reminds me how exaggerated people are around here regarding the mere existence of men, but when there's even a hint of yuri, then it doesn't count as romance in the slightest, even when the opposite is proven later on.GHOST CONCERT has a lot of problems, but the Het isn't really one of them. The plot, characters, development, and even animation are real problems here. They're putting too much effort into a music video that isn't really that good, neglecting everything else.
>>4550943It's funnier than that; in the movie's universe, the story you know was inspired by this Kaguya, so the het story is a distortion and adaptation of the original gay story.
>>4550957Just follow Kvin for that info, he will probably post about every Botan episode eventually https://bsky.app/profile/yuyucow.bsky.social/post/3mjpv2hip3c23
>>4550970Thank you, anon. I'll be checking it out.
>>4550943It's ever justified to not touch cowardly series
>>4550967While the animation in GC may be subpar, you have to remember it's ENGI. What I mean, is that outside of Medalist, most of their shows are absolute QUALITYfests far below that. I'm actually impressed it can remain consistent and not be another show that depeneds on a handful of scenes done by Ryuuki Hashimoto and his connections. For a long while, ENGI shows were QUALITYfests with the ocassional Ryuuki Hashimoto sequence being the exception. (A good example of this is Detective is Already Dead)Medalist and Ghost Concert are an upgrade from their usual (because their usual is so terribly bad)It's just a /u/ user would miss this because their usual was also hetshit that they'd ignore even if it was made by more skilled staff
>>4550974Cowardly is when love confessions and accepted marriage proposalsHow long until AdaShima and YagaKimi are deemed "cowardly" by some nonsense logic?
>>4550975Frankly, that makes GHOST CONCERT an even sadder case overall, since they're putting effort into a project that fails from its very conception. The characters aren't that great, the premise seems like an excuse for musicals with ghosts, and the action is quite mediocre (it serves as a real example of what those who complained about the fights in Toji no Miko were complaining about). And I mean it, the yuri route, or for this to become something seriously yuri, is the only way this project will work, and maybe they'll have a chance to improve things for the people involved. But as things stand, it's not even a recommendation out of curiosity.
>>4550974Kill yourself, faggot.
>>4550943Disliking that the original story is het is actually a very good reason to watch the movie instead
https://x.com/kimboogakk77/status/2047274318707716483?s=46anyone have a source
>>4551124Isn't the source the twitter itself and he is just posting pictures of some ave mujica doujin, in theory yuri he is in still in the process of creating?
>>4551133kinda what i thought, but couldnt tell since no faces.

>>4551137Axes are capable of causing pretty severe health issues.
>>4551137It just ran it's course, it's a cute premise and execution but you can only take it so far.

>>4551235It would have to be censored with a paper wrapping or something.
>>4551137i dont think it was ever planned as that long of a series judging by the pre-serialization
