Maria the Virgin Witch ended up going so underrated. What happened?
>Good characters
>Good animation
>Accurate representation of the times, including armor and combat
>Good amount of powerlevels. Characters were able to feel impressive and strong without hitting shounenshit/DBZ level.
>>134533801
Most of /a/ dropped it, myself included, after Maria got raped.
>>134533801

She didn't get raped though, she still used magic after
>>134533834
Nonsense
>>134533801
Dunno. I'm a /k/ommando so I came to watch medieval combat. Not enough of that happened.

I can't stay in this thread because I've still only watched the first half of it, but it's definitely an underrated show.
>>134533801
Maria a cute. I want to take her virginity.
>>134534103
Enjoy anon
>>134533834
Why is /a/ so fucking autistic in this regard? It's literally the one thing I can't stand about this board
It was mediocre and poorly directed.
>>134533870
My friend did that too, hated the characters, but loved the combat.
>>134534207
>why doesn't /a/ support rape
You tell me.
Meh, it was okay. The original was pretty boring, but Taniguchi made it way better than it should be.
>>134533937
Kodansha released all Maria volumes
>>134534257
It's not "we don't like rape," it's "muh pure virgin waifu has been defiled." Don't pretend like that's the same thing.
>>134533801
The end was hilariously terrible.
The last episode killed everything for me.
Around moors, lock your doors.
>>134533834
Bullshit.
>>134534207
The rape scene in Maria the Virgin Witch was particularly bad.
Treating rape as a life destroying thing is retarded. If a girl gets raped and society says, "She's ruined forever. Unclean. She can never marry" that's a gross overreaction, and I think most of /a/ agrees. If you get raped, you may have lasting physical harm, you may not. You may have lasting emotional harm, you may not. But even if you have both, both can be treated, and even if they can't, they're nothing but cuts on the bark of a tree -- they may never go away, but as grow older and get more experiences, they will become less apart of you. That's how you treat rape.
In Maria the Virgin Witch they do precisely not that. Maria gets raped and her entire life is ruined. She loses her magic. The village hates her. Everyone hates her.
So, yeah, fuck that show.
I miss those threads;_;
>>134533801
Too religious
>>134534359
But still had her magic
and the village comes to love her.
The show literally does the opposite of what you said it did and actually does what you think it should have done
>>134534359
eloquently put anon
>>134534359
You need to find some different world views. There are places, this day and age, where that happens.
>>134534378
>Can saint michael kill servants
This whole thing
Maria gets raped?..
And her I was thinking about picking this up...
Is the rapist at least handsome and awesome and ultimately takes responsibility after redeeming himself?
>>134534378
>Will Priapus ever get a dick?
>He'll get mine
>>134534439
She gets raped and loses her magic.
Great ending to a shit show.
>>134534359
But that's an entirely realistic way to treat it because that's how it would have been treated back then. Just because you would personally treat it differently doesn't change the fact that it's the way society has viewed rape for most of history. Getting pissed at historical realism makes you the retard here.
>>134534439
She doesn't get raped and she doesn't lose her magic.
What the fuck did all you faggots seriously, actually stop watching the show half way?and still feel the need to comment on it?
In manga she didn't get rapped, she agrees to have sex and later birth reincarnated pigeon
>>134534359
As if you wouldn't think your life is ruined if someone put his penis on your boypussy without any preparation and tearing your insides and as a bonus he did on purpose to be a dick because he knew that having your boypussy being ravaged is the trigger for you to lose your super duper awesome kakkoi wizard powers.
Wouldn't you be mad if you lost your wizard powers because some jerk put his penis on your boypussy?
>tfw still no doujins where Maria loses her virginity with a dog
>>134534378
>Why is her jaw sore
Every time.
I don't like rape in my anime, particularly of cute girls like Maria. I like stuff that makes me feel good after a hard day at work. Something like Ika Musume or Umaru-Chan. A well-executed character death (no pun intended) I can tolerate but rape is almost too much.
Sorry /a/.

>>134534565
How about you read the manga you fucking secondary.
>>134534569
Please.
As if the West doesn't see rape literally as just that. In fact, they think rape is LITERALLY worse than being killed. Being a "rape survivor" is worse than being fucking dead according to the West.
>>134534359
Rape is goods devaluation.
>>134534563
She wasn't raped.
She still had her magic.
Everyone loved her.
the fucking end
Christ you fags are autistic. I hate rape of my cute girls outside of porn too, but she wasn't raped.
Attempted rape yeah.
>>134534587
The anime is better than the manga in this case. Galfa and Bernard make everything much more interesting.
You'd think unpopular show like this wouldn't get a lot of shitposters.

I was going to pick it up, DROPPED. Is the scene at least fappable?
>>134534742
No, sadly, because the rape doesn't actually happen.
>>134534742
It's really too brutal to fap to.
>>134534632
Idiotic vocal fanbase attracts them. The show being a shitstain in Taniguchi career also helps.
How did she fight off the rape if it didn't happen?
Somebody is gonna need to post the rape webm so I can decide if I want to watch this or not.
>>134534876
I went out of my way not to save it, but she's chained to a rack (the torture device) with a mask on and this just rapes her until she loses her magic.
And that's why nearly everyone dropped it.
>>134534790
Yeah, it was tasteless rape, like real life, should have made it like my hentai.
>>134534764
Fuck off baiter, no one is going to be lured watching this failed show.
>>134534359
But you totally forgot about the fact that the rape isn't why people hate her, nor is it why her life is ruined. It's just a part of a much bigger tragedy in Maria's life.
You're overestimating the importance of the rape. No one hates her because she's not a virgin anymore, they hate her for a myriad of reasons, mostly because the church has been saying she's a vile blasphemer and anyone who has ever associated with her will go to hell. Her life is in ruins because of a combination of this and the loss of her powers, which was only a side effect of being raped. The rape is only a part of the much larger problems going on, and her entire character doesn't take on the role of "raped woman forever damaged" like you seem to be so bothered by.
If anything the show directly defies this in her overcoming the rape, hate, loss of her powers and finding love and salvation. I have no idea why people get so upset by the rape scene to this day. Maybe they all just had a fundamental misunderstanding as you do? Maybe you were too busy crying that she got raped to pay attention to the actual plot? If anyone is making too big a deal about her rape it's not the show. It's you.
I love this rape meme. Absolutely hilarious.
going to post it on reddit where it belongs
>>134534873
She couldnt, she got drugged and was too weak to do anything against her attacker, fucking traitor scum.
>>134534207

>>134534963
This would actually convince dumb anons to watch it and get mad when she get the d, but some guy posted a webm of the rape scene a while back, everyone backed the hell out.

You didn't save it because?
So im guessing everyone here has a pussy?
>>134535022
Hilarious friend. Please keep it up with the rape jokes.

I have it, but I'll get banned for posting it. If Valkyrie Drive isn't allowed then there's no way Maria's rape is allowed.

>Not watching the American version

>Shitposters still trying to reverse troll people into watching this show by claiming rape.
The entire premise of the show is that she'll lose her powers if she loses her virginity. And she still has her powers after the "rape" scene. You don't even have to watch the fucking show to know she didn't get raped.
Fucking assholes, stop claiming rape and making me watch shows.
>>134535176
Nobody gives a shit what /gif/ thinks. It is literally dicks, John Cena, and gib sauce in every thread. Even when sauce is in the file name.
>>134535192
Top tier meme, friend.
By the way for anyone who hasn't watched the anime: Maria is a virgin and has been told if she has sex will lose her powers.
After this scene, it appears she loses her powers.
But she didn't. She uses them later. All is well in the world. The end.

Is on the fucking FUNimation description page of that episode you retarded faggot. She might even have liked it.
The show is about her dealing with the aftermath of being viewed as used goods and not having her power because of the rape.
>>134535277
Shes traumatized, thats why she can't use her magic.
Yet she uses it later because she wasn't actually raped.

I actually don't have a problem with rape.
I mean, when Maria is raped, she doesn't actually want sex, so she is still kind of pure, without the lewd thoughts.
Had she had consensual sex (lust) it would have been way worse.

I need a sociologist or a cultural theorist asap.

Im actually okay with it, she wasnt hot, thank heavens, must be the stupid earrings and her slut outfit.
>>134535436
Probably her hymen being her magic barrier, is not rocket science buddy. But it could have been more creative.
>>134535471
Used goods.
thats really all there is to explain
They want them to remain untouched by any other man but themselves orthe one they love. The idea is they only let the special person inside of them.
>>134535471
It's 90% joking/shitposting/trying to fit in. It's just people pretending to be like disgusting otaku, just like almost everyone pretends to be a little girl or a 30 year old virgin NEET.
And yes I know there's probably a handful of people that actually care but it's the extreme minority.
>>134535471
The image sums up the thought of guys liking virgin girls. Unless you are a kek, is disgusting having secondaries.
>>134535517
Yea nah, the purity thing isn't pretending.
The little girl yeah, that's just a joke.
Except there are tons of NEETs and virgins here as well, so I'm not sure what you're trying to say.

>>134535573
I'm not saying it is. I'm aware some people live normal lives. There are people in relationships and have proper jobs or go to school.
But there are tons of virgins, and NEETs. Some may not be NEETs, but they probably work a dead end job and are still virgins.
Tons of friendless losers as well.
>>134535573
Thing is, most people like to think this is the elite place to hang. But in reality, its quite the loser place. I mean majority of the people here just consume, and discussion is filled with shit post, we all try to make a lasting meme. And this place is trying to enforce no fun rule. At least /v/ have a lot of fun. Dont try to be an elite.
>>134535534
That image doesn't make any sense. You don't eat girls.
Even in the context of vampires that doesn't make sense since a girls blood doesn't change just because she had sex. It's probably better to go after vegan blood if you're actually concerned about the quality of blood.
Unless there's some magic reason.
>>134533801
It was a beautiful show done far better than it had any right to be. On top of the cute girls and mild fanservice there was also loads of Theology, military history, and character development. It's a great story and the anime adaption was well above average. If anything it even surpassed the original manga, which is pretty rare these days. The weekly threads were comfy and interesting as it aired
Decent the whole way through.
>What happened?
A couple autists got hyper triggered by a certain plot point and decided to either drop the show or never pick it up and shitpost the thing into oblivion. As evidenced by this entire fucking thread.

Who cares? I laughed, mission accomplished.

Stop being retarded. I'm not defending rape nor am I saying it's empowering.
The show was empowering in illustrating that it can be overcome and won't forever ruin you. Which seemed to be the problem anon had with the the show, as he thought it was the opposite.
>>134535723

desu, the image does not matter, the words are enough, the image is there because is a quote i from that tv show.
anyway, you would enjoy giving a girl oral more if you knew no other guys saliva have been there. so yeah, eating is in another sense related to sex, so does virginity. step up senpai.

And I'm sorry you lived a sheltered life and didn't see kids put nasty shit in their mouths.
Also girls bleed disgusting dead body tissue from their vaginas every month, don't want your dick near that.

I like Monogatari too, for the record. It's got some depth to it, but I'm not stupid enough to look into the fanservice scenes and force myself to see meaning where there isn't any.

That is a meme. This is real, virgins have magic power, she get drugged up with a potion concocted by someone that didnt know what it would be used for. She gets sexually assaulted, but can not fight back because of the after effects, she loses her power, how? OH WAIT, no longer hymen intact. Then the whole show is about how shitty humans can be, and how she gets over it.
>>134536069
So do you watch it without sound or something?

>most people on /a/ even though it was anime from Japan
Not really. In terms of aesthetics it was pretty obviously western.
>>134533834
Question is, did she like it?
>>134533801
because this fixation on virginity needs to end.
>>134536803
No shit mate. We all grown up today and know at least a thing or two. Is not like I meant when we were kids.
>>134536796
Was making a joke on that anon´s lack of image providence. But they flash their names on those videos no? I always watched them when they aired.
>>134536844
>Chad fucked you drunk on party one night
>Everyone knows
>You are being slutshamed
>I-is nothing wrong
Back to tumblr you go landwhale
>>134536844
Relax. No one cares about your used up boipussy. All we care about is our waifu´s purity. So fuck off. And Maria is disgusting used goods.

>this fixation on virginity needs to end
'No'
>>134536844
It can end, but so will marriage.
>>134536425
>Not even Swedish models can beat that
You fucking what? that girl is average as fuck
5.5 at best
I just don't like the point of her loosing her powers at the end.
Seems just so sad that she lost something so important after getting married
>>134536269
>3D
>Adorable
Choose one.
>>134534359
Tumblr get the fuck out.
>>134536425
>Not even Swedish models can beat that.
Son are you retarded?
Her face looks like something I'd see on a Unicode Character Code Chart.
>>134534565
How about you finish watching the show you anal brain stem?
>>134535917
The difference is that Bakemonogatari gives your eyes fanservice while your ears and brain analyse all the depth in the characters, their conversations, and those delicious EOP-proof puns.
>>134534378
>Can saint Michael kill servants
>>134536556
No shit, Maria is a human (who can use magic) and Michael is a fucking angel.
Who the fuck taught you Bible Power Levels 101? They need to be brought out and re-baptized.
Only normalfags starved for more Western settings would consider this anything but mediocre.
>>134533801
It tried to hard to be intellectual by deconstructing religion and prostitution. They should have focused more on SoLewd and been more subtle about the philosophy.
I actually dropped this show despite having liked the first episodes because I simply lost interest in it. I just wasn't in the mood, I guess. That's all.
>>134535573
>4chan isn't the loser hive you like to think it is.
I liked all the characters except Maria herself. Thats basically the only flaw I can think of
>>134533801
Taniguchi changed manga's great plot. This is shit. Not underrated.
>>134533801
This, Planetes and Code Geass came from the same director. One of these things is not like the others.

>saint michael
>>134536225
Apart from the fact that she can use magic after nigga
>>134533857
>>134533834
It was her mouth that got raped, hence her powers were temporarily weakened.
>>134534563
I bet you don't like Kuroinu either.

>>134533801

>Accurate representation of the times, including armor and combat
>barely any fight at all so no wonder powerlevels weren't fucked up
Overall an average show,not bad but nothing outstanding either.
>>134533834
Oh silly anon
The guy's dick used the back door or it was too small to rip her hymen.
>>134533834
She didn't get raped you fucking megafaggot.
>>134533801
Maria is a slut. I hate sluts.
>>134534316
There are plenty of non-raped waifus out there. No need to waste time on rape victims.
>>134533801
I think the show was actually well-received in the U.S. at least compared to Japan, but it certainly wasn't a big hit.
I mean, the subject matter is too specific and unusual, plus you have the issue of some people finding the premise either too fanservice-y or too boring without even watching a single episode.
>>134533834
Neither of those things are true, especially since she wasn't raped and there wasn't any mass drop
>>134534359
You're completely wrong. Maria the Virgin Witch actually handled a rape attempt relatively well.
First off, you don't speak for most of /a/. Second, you have your facts wrong. I didn't destroy Maria's life. That's not the reason she temporarily lost her powers, nor is it the reason people were against her.
In other words, you are so far off the mark that it's rather depressing to think you could even write that.
>>134534439
Maria doesn't get raped and doesn't lose her magic.
So you're being either fooled or foolish about it.
>>134534492
All of that also happens in the anime, in case you didn't watch it.
>>134534911
I don't recall so many people dropping it because of that, especially since the episode itself pointed out that Maria hadn't lost her virginity.
>>134535277
Maria doesn't actually lose her magic, since the familiars are still around. Nor did she like anything about the rape attempt, nor did she become used goods,.
>>134535429
>>134535436
Guys, Maria didn't lose her virginity, so nothing was broken. Other than the minds of a few silly anons
>>134535767
But she didn't.
>>134536225
Magic power isn't tied to virginity as a general rule in the show. She briefly lost her powers because of her own doubts plus the rape attempt made her lose confidence, but the priest literally says that a doctor checked and she's still a virgin even after said loss of powers. Which she gains back a couple of episodes later for that matter. Only arguably loses them at the very end and purely voluntarily in a much happier context, off screen.
>>134538300
Taniguchi changed very little. Just added the soldier and the priest, who were both pretty good characters. The main plot is actually the same, as well as the ending. Lots of scenes are directly taken from the manga.
>>134538804
>This, Planetes and Code Geass came from the same director. One of these things is not like the others.
You forgot Infinite Ryvius, Scryed and GunXSword.
>>134533801
Maria the Virgin Witch was a show which included dealing with Christian beliefs and practices. That's often going to offend some conservative Catholics who are incapable of self-criticism and self-reform.
>>134534801
His worst show was s-cry-ed though. This was alright.
>>134533854
A few of those were actually interesting
>>134540346
>The main plot is actually the same
You lie.
>>134540501
No, you lie.
Maria stops wars. Angel gets mad. Regular people get mad. Maria continues. She's attacked by said Angel and has to recover. She gets captured in both versions and almost burned. But she isn't. Then she meets up with Joseph again. The Angel returns. They resolve stuff. Happily ever after ending.
>>134534359
In some places if you get raped then you'll be stoned to death as the whore you are in order to protect the honor of the family.
>>134540528
The author said. YOU LIE. Ask Ishikawa.
>>134540782
The author said there were some differences. Which is true. But all the main plot points from the manga are in the show.
Half the show was anime original and I didn't give a shit about any of the anime original characters
Yes, even Galfa and Bernard
>>134540957
Hyperbole much? None of the anime original stuff prevented the manga material from happening
Too bad. You're missing out.
>>134541058
It's not a hyperbole, Mr. Animeonly.
>>134541125
I have all four volumes of the manga.
Maria was sometimes annoying in both versions of the story, but I liked everyone else.
>>134540957
The only 100% anime episode was the one with the duel scene. Everything else had some manga scenes or dialogue included.
>>134541147
Then why don't you go rewatch the anime and keep track of how much time total is spent on shit that isn't in the manga.
It may surprise you
>>134541184
Keyword being some
>>134541200
It won't, because the overall structure is still largely the same even if they added a couple of new branches to the tree. It's not like the show ended up somewhere entirely unrelated.
>>134534359
So you either didn't pay attention to the plot or you didn't actually watch the show? Which is it?
>>134541227
Some of the most important.
>>134541230
>>134541253
The overarching plot being the same doesn't change the fact that half the show is anime original scenes focusing on anime original characters and therefore not a hyperbole.
Awesome show. Virgin fags dropped it at the rape scene and didn't even bother to understand it beyond that.
This anime is like Gakkou Gurashi if Taroumaru wasn't in the manga at all and the dude in the helicopter survived and raped Yuki
>>134541568
Nobody raped anyone in this show.
>>134541643
*Fingered Yuki
>>134533801
Because it was shit.
>>134541643
>purityfags are this delusional
>>134535627
That film is a comedy.
>>134535573
oh it surely isn't you have plenty of good or decent boards.
/a/ itself on the other hand is quite certainly a hive of shit taste, shitposting and retardation. you'd have to be blind to not see why this is one of the worst boards.
