Keeping the list tidy gets confusing over the weekend.
i appreciate prioritizing my stuff first i do work kinda early! >>876082 unfortunately, i have learned my lesson the hard way that window film is a job that does in fact require sleep to be chosen over anime to at least some extent
orange - i watched some Gabriel Dropout clips recently and remembered what a great show that was honestly i might like it better than some of the other greats in the genre like yuru yuri or yuyushiki well hmm yuyushiki is hard to beat
also i'm just gonna come out and say it azumanga daioh anime hasn't aged nearly as well as the manga don't @ me
They're playing up her moe side a lot more suddenly for some reason
Oh wow she's going for the win here
Anno
Yeah! She went moe because Hikki's dumbass confession monologue managed to get through her ice queen facade.
Anno
aw that made me feel happy i'm all warm and fuzzy now
there were a lot of small details that made that scene a lot better specifically their body language and posturing and the way she put her hand up as she moved closer and moved into his shoulder the voice acting was pretty good too he said some stuff that is kinda crazy but the delivery ended up being sweet and on-character
Anno
Hikki is such a dork. I can understand finding it cheap to try and compact a complicated relationship into a single line confession but man he really went word salad trying to express to Yukino how he felt.
Of course I'd totally probably end up doing the same shit in his place. I can't help it.
Anno
They're both difficult people and the confession was suitable difficult.
Anno
they're definitely doomed to manipulate each other their entire adult relationship
Yeah remember Chizuru wanted to set the MC up with another girl.
Anno
she doesn't seem cut out for it though she's clearly having some issues with it
Anno
I totally called this way back at the start of the season hah hah. She'd be a rental girlfriend and the MC would get tasked with improving her shyness.
Anno
that guitar effects they have on during the chorus remind me of weezer's pinkerton
Anno
A social ... giraffe? What kind of saying is that.
Anno
her outfit is super COJAE OHSOGKIRJSWg EGI JOGIJS REg NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO
That's an awfully rude thing to say about giraffes!
Anno
her outfit is really cute is what i wanted to say
Anno
Hah hah hah Man this girl is super shy.
Anno
She's got cute eyebrows though.
Anno
i start liking MC and then he says dumb stuff like that
Anno
He's a bit of a "two steps forward, one step back" kind of guy.
Anno
WRONG THING TO SAY MC STOP MC STOP SHUT UP MC
Anno
oh i guess that makes sense she's doing this because it's a way to force herself to meet a lot of people and get some people skills but there's better ways
Anno
Yeah, being a rental girlfriend is not going to really help you improve your people skills. At least not in any other kind of -At least no better than any other kind of customer service job.
Anno
.... wow
Anno
"i'm used to walking around with a top-class girl on my arm"
Anno
>I'm used to walking around with a top-class girl on my arm What a thing to say.
Yeah, I think she probably does a good job of stumbling into success with the renting. But if she wanted to be a rental girlfriend to improve her social skills, that kind of stumbling around is just gonna reinforce her introvert traits rather than fix the
KA BE DO N
Anno
Just leaves his blood there on the skate rink.
Anno
Oh no
Anno
fukou daaaaaaaa
Anno
Mami is such a fun girl hah hah. You don't really get girls like her in harem romcom anime.
With a girl like her, you just knew she'd be back to wreck havoc for the finale.
Anno
bruh
Anno
I wonder what would've happened if he'd been pseudo-honest with Mami and said that Chizuru knew about this date with Sumi. Since Chizuru was the one that set it up.
Anno
they really gonna get this VA and then only give her 4 lines
Anno
Still cute eyebrows
>>876169 They're just securing the talent for season two where she gets better and and can hold a conversation.
Anno
>Why am I so fixated on that guy? Mami maybe it's because you're still crushing on him
Anno
if only mami wasn't so shitty all the time then she wouldn't be so shitty
Anno
Oh no Google power Hah hah hah
Anno
I totally expected him to flub or something. Or Sumi being inexperienced and spoiling to Mami she was a rental girlfriend. But she just ... fucking Google'd it
oh no MC should realize this is the time to make a move but instead he's gonna think he shouldn't
Anno
Oh I thought Mami trying to out him for renting girlfriends was gonna be the season finale cliffhanger. But I guess
Anno
it's that AND Chizuru thinking of quitting the rental job.
Anno
oh no that's foreboding maybe she hmmm
Anno
>>876179 I don't think she's at the crushing point where she'd initiate that herself. And the MC's totally the kind of guy who'd go "Well she's an independent woman now, time to give her space!"
i have a hard time really liking these characters too much in general i don't have intense moral qualms about the rental thing but i don't particularly consider it a great display of personal character either and the only who isn't - mami - is pure evil well not pure evil pure stupid but she errs towards evil i probably like kibe the best then ruka then... kazuya? then sumi (neutral) then chizuru then whoever else power gap then those punks at the bowling alley then mami
Anno
I like the more friends-based actions that Chizuru and the MC get up to than their romance-y stuff. I think if the series ended with them being platonic best friends and him going for a different girl, I would be fine with that. Mami is such a human bean of a character that I just really like her. Ruka if she could be a bit less clingy would be probably the best all-rounder. Sumi is probably gonna be best girl once she stops being so shy.
Anno
mami says words with the intent to hurt people takes actions that benefit only herself, especially at the cost of others she can't be trusted and she doesn't understand her feelings and why she does things but everyone in this show is like that
let's say you start dating a girl and she just won't have sex with you and you finally break it off cause she won't have sex with you
then she goes and turns around and has sex with a ton of random guys
you'd hate her wouldn't you?
Anno
if i started dating just anybody for the reasons she did i'd already be committing the cardinal sin of doing something self-serving without respecting the ramifications it would have for the other party and their feelings >finally break it off cause she won't have sex with you holy what there would at the very least be discussion about that topic but in the end, sex is pretty whatever the concerns about a lack of sex go more towards validation and trust and attraction which are the core issues that need to be dealt with but the sex itself (or lack thereof) as the pure basis for breaking up i simply can't put myself in those shoes because such a shitty thing is on a paradigm that i just can't empathize with that i just won't
Anno
the thing about mami (and to an extent, most - well wait not so much mami is just so inconsiderate of others and what they feel and the only good characterizations of most of the characters in this show have been specifically about that specifically about being considerate and showing empathy or sympathy reading the situation and figuring out how to make things the best they can be it's why chizuru's kind of a shit - because she only does so reluctantly
Anno
sorry if i sound ranty or angry but mami infuriates me
Anno
now i'm feeling bad about leaving someone on read because i knew they were interested in me, but i couldn't reciprocate and didn't know how to not hurt them i hope, alas but likely in vain, that she wasn't too hurt or sad but knowing her as well as i do and that she was likely losing one of her few friends it kinda hurts but what could i do she doesn't seem like the type to make confessions often god i'm an idiot
thanks for anime moe
Anno
Some times you just gotta hurt people. I say, comfortable in never having to have ever worry about something like that ever. Worried, even. Sorry to hear that though. It's rough.
Aaaaaaaand now here's Burns The OP's been teasing a showdown between these two since the start of the season.
Anno
Burns seems to constantly be played up as secret villain but he never seems to actually deliver on it. Even when Shinra confronted him back in season one things still got smoothed over.
