The anime ended up getting a lot more attention than expected.
Lillies.
Mood
>>4553940Gujo may be the most pathetic yaya I've seen. She doesn't just pines for Ibuko, she's practically a simp.
What was up with this scene? Did they really bring two characters from an unrelated series just to reference how Aoi and Ibuki look alike?
Honestly, I wasn't expecting this cameo. It makes me wonder if it's the same universe (which means these two already get drunk together) or if they're characters who also get drunk together. The self-awareness of the characters' resemblance is also good (the difference being that Aoi is a heartless bitch).
>>4554566I'm starting to suspect she's something far more insidious than a mere yaya; a true yuri cuck.
>>4554803Sometimes it happens with favors between authors, or as I said in my post, both series can take place in the same universe and those two have their own channel where they talk about alcohol and maybe also mountains with alcohol (the funny thing about the same universe is because the other anime about lesbians and alcohol took place in the same universe as Dagashi Kashi).
>>4554807Perhaps a small hidden anti-smoking message; she's the only one of the girls who smokes, and that makes her the loser.
>>4555022i'm liking the anime so far despite dropping the manga later on, hopefully it stays that way, but i prefer the side couple despite lack of screentimeibuki is bland, she isn't a particularly nice or likable girl, it seems characters just flock to her for plot reasons, and the dedicated third wheel makes you feel bad about supporting the main couple, what's good about them is really just botan
>>4555051So far I like Gujou x Botan more as a pairing. Ibuki and Botan kinda feels like... random? I'm not really sold on why either of them likes the other so much, it happened very quickly.Maybe if the final girl is introduced all of the pieces will fall into place.
>>4555051>>4555052I kind of feel like I have to separate sober Botan and drunk Botan a bit to make sense of the dynamic. Drunk Botan is shamelessly romantic with any girl she's with, unless the girl is clearly partnered with someone else. Sober Botan will drink with anyone, but her favorite drinking partner is Ibuki. That does mean there's lots more moments of drunk Botan being shamelessly romantic with Ibuki, but it's a result of sober Botan's drinking preferences, not a particularly exclusive romantic interest.
>>4555051I mostly agree, but sometimes people just have a type and get crushes based on nothing but physical appearance. Sometimes it even leads to happy and healthy relationshipsIt's kind of refreshing to see a romance start from something more shallow and see their relationship grow form there

>>4554807Well she cannot admit to herself that she is gay.Which is more dangerous, someone like Goujo who is aware of homosexuality and its baggage and so doesn't go anywhere because she is afraid of the commitment. Or Botan who doesn't acknowledge social politics and just does what feels good, which means what feels good could shift in the future?
>>4555532>which means what feels good could shift in the future?I want to see Botan try acid or cocaine. Cocaine goes great with booze. It was basically invented so you can drink longer.
>>4555559Japan is not Miami. You can't just buy a bag of coke from your friendly neighbourhood dealer, you must have shady connections, and risk going to jail.
what are we drinking today lads? somersby apple for me
some absolutely incredible shots and framing this episode.
The classic Shaft tributes continue.
>>4556055
Best yuri anime since YagaKimi
Is smoking still a thing in Japan?
Gujo? What kind of question is this?
Symbolism
IPS cells?
>>4556232Yaya...
Not exactly subtle is this episode, but I kind of dig it.
Last two episodes have been great. Big redemption after episode 3.
>>4556405Do you still think that episode had quality problems?
>>4556409It tries too hard to be quirky and creative. Episode 5 is a good example of arthouse directing without needing to rely on deforming the art or other cheap tricks.
>This reactionWas music really the only thing that her senpai introduced her to?
>>4556405Forced meme.
>>4556417>>rely on deforming the art or other cheap tricks.That's literally Konosuba, but unintentionally, and people forget how awful the animation of that anime really looks. It's a bit off-topic, but the average fan is dumber than people give them credit for.
Do yaya's deserve charity? Should they be given a rebound character or should they be eternally alone?
Wow. She has had years. She met Ibuki before she moved into the dorm. Was the person Ibuki was drinking with here the person who said her hiccups were gross?And so Ibuki changed dorms and cut her hair over it? So many chances for Gujo to be the rebound girl here and she blew it.
>>4556430Depends on the yaya, I guess. Pretty ones like Gujou can have cute foreign girlfriends.
The core of being a Yaya is to think that you have all the time in the world to work up to asking her out, isn't it? Was Gujo the RA herself back then?
>>4555051>she isn't a particularly nice or likable girlIt's about their vibes. Botan is a predator, Ibuki is a prey that becomes more and more delicious as she gets flustered. They have an irresistible dynamic between them. Gujou is beautiful but a loser. She can't hunt for shit. I hope chink girl is a power bottom.
"Now and forever". Premature or?
>>4556075Has yuri ever had shared smoking like this?
>>4556454I can't remember the last yuri to even have smoking in it.

Chin-Lan is so lucky

>>4556483>>4556485They went there...
>>4556228
>>4556226I'm not sure why but I cringed at that
>>4556525Gujo is an actual femcel.
>>4556527The way she went for such an aggressive question when clearly she's losing, it put Ibuki on the spot. Not a good way to shoot your shot. So yeah femcel energy.
>>4556527Finally, a character I can relate to.
>>4556527She didn't pull the 'rape in the middle of nowhere' card, so yeah.Now her only chance is to play Botan with alcohol and then fuck her while screaming 'indirect tribbing with Ibuki fuck yeah!'.Or trick Botan into letting her 'assist' for a threesome.At least until the new girl shows up.
>>4556485Even matching colored drinks...
Searching 'Gujo' on X is a trip. She has a lot of fans who lover her. Its crazy.
>>4556589>can't even confess while living with the girl for years alone>threesome lol
>>4556622Cute!
>>4556774Gujou and Botan are carrying the show. Yaeka and Akane are ok. Ibuki is a shit.
Found something on Pixiv, dumping.

>>4556774Today's Tarumi.
>>4556793Tarumi wishes she could be as cool as Gujo.
Tarumi is just pathetic and annoying. Gujo is a tortured yaya that we all wanna root for.
>>4556814This is kind of true. Tarumi normally dressed like a housewife and when she really put effort into it she just made herself look like of office lady ten years above her actual age.
Ah and I forgot, Tarumi was trying to steal The Adachi's girl (-2000), whereas Gujo was given a day by Ibuki's alpha gf as charity (+10000).
>>4556819*whereas Botan set Gujou up to be rejected knowing that Ibuki wouldn't want to drink with her
>>4556819>>4556824*whereas Botan tested Gujou to see if she was 3p material, knowing she won either way
>>4556817I just want to laugh at Gujo's misfortune.
>>4556827So what will happen when the Chinese girls visa runs out?
>>4556824Nah she gave her a chance to shoot her shot and move on. That's very charitable. Botan a cute.
>>4556829She could've at least told Gujou about the hiccups. Subconsciously Botan was setting her up to fail.
Wait, do i get right? Since Gunjou could drink with Ibuki, she wil star smoking with her?Unhealty habit circle
>>4556774I'm glad Twitterers are empathizing with her. It's fun to point and laugh at Yayas but heartbreak is something anyone can all relate to.
>>4556845I don't have any experience with heartbreak because I've never asked anyone out
>>4556833She can't tell her gf's secrets to another person.
>>4556845She should hold her fags in the French style for maximum patheticness.
