Can someone translate the comments?
10.5 ! !
>>139794551
What?
>>139794232
two beds though and Haruno go eat the cunt
>>139793501
Nice legs
>>139794630
The Vita game's limited edition will get a bonus OVA based on 10.5, it seems.
S3 when
>>139794769
2018 most likely
>>139794366
Why? They are mostly one liner bullshit of little worth.
>>139794688
Haruno doesn't respect the cunt and does not seem at all interested by him.
>>139793501
>>139793509
I hope 8man gets one of them.
>>139794840
>>139794883
Saika route confirm
>>139794840
Mostly to get a sense of what the nips are thinking about it, eg. whether most of them say "shit will suck" or "woohoo".
erm. Yahallo, where can i get the translated VN beside torrent?
>>139793501
Let me guess, it's crap like the Oreimo game?
>>139794551
I knew it, I knew it
Now all those who were saying it wasn't 10.5 back then can finally shut up
Now I have to wait to see which shop gets the Iroha bonus
I'm not usually one for bikinis but that looks so good on her.
>>139794914
Not much different than here for the most part. Some funposting here and there but most of the comments have the same sentiment.
>>139795102
Forgot to say that it says
>Isshiki Iroha's main episode from Vol 10.5 will be animated
Dis just some fillershit or is everyone getting their own ending?
>>139795428
Yes there are different routes
>s2 artstyle
disgusting
>>139793541
>8man taking responsibility,
So, he can't escape Iroha?
When the fuck is vol 12?
>>139795598
Well yes but will be all flirty shit without any conclusion or full blown pregger-tier
>>139795863
I don't remember pregnancies UN the first game
Let's put it like this
It will be fleshed out routes with the style of 8man's date with Iroha
About the endings, I guess you'll just have to wait for it to come out to find out which girl gets what
>>139794769
Most likely never, not even material.Most likely adaption would be a movie or an ova.
>>139793501
>$110
Explain to me why the jap games are so expensive?
>>139797517
Shitty buissnesmodels and the niche audience is even more cucked than western gamers.
>>139793501
>>139793509
>Yukinon's modest, petite yukinons
>Yui's righteous yuis
hnnnnnnggggg
>>139797517
Because that's the limited edition which brings the OVA and other crap
But you're right that even normal edition of jap games are rather expensive.
>>139797517
Because idiots will buy it anyway.
>>139797517
>>139797568
Depends on the amount of content, really. If it's got a ton of hours' worth, it might be worth it. Also >>139797721
Haruno route pls.Not like I know jap anyway.
>>139797652
I wonder which ones will have the chance to satisfy the 8.
>>139796070
I don't know if we will get actual romance ends. ANOTHER and vol 12 might be reserved for that.
There is only one important question to ask.
Is there a Sensei route?
>>139798097
>I wonder which ones will have the chance to satisfy the 8.
The elite patrician's choice is a threesome end.
>>139798097
I mean this game isn't canon so they can add romance endings
8man can get married to Hiratsuka in the first VN afterall
>>139798288
How will 8man curb their jealousy? They both think there can only be one.
Will we get the typical preggo ends?
>>139798301
I guess it is for the better if there was. The main series will probably have one of the main girls getting her heart ripped out of her chest so it would be nice to have some romance that doesn't involve hard feelings.
>>139798914
Just tell them that if he can't have both of them, then he will chose neither. That he can't picture a future without all three of them together.
I'm sure if 8man wasgenuineenough and used some kind of mental gymnastics he could get it to work.
>>139798914
Convince them it's the only way to make everyone happy.

>>139793541
B.E.S.T G.I.R.L
iroha route confirmed
>>139794551
>>139795102
Fucking finally.
What's up with the LNs? Don't Yukino and Yui already know that they both like the 8man? Doesn't he know this already?
>>139806463
I think they all know it, but they refuse to acknowledge it? I don't know, it's confusing.
>>139806463
Yui knows Yukino likes 8man
Yukino knows Yui likes 8man
8man is still in the dark about Yukino and is hesitant about Yui.
Reminder that Totsuka is best girl
>>139799645
School days style ending would be too good!
>>139793501
>Yukino isn't dfc enough
Disappointing.
>>139799645
>one of the main girls getting her heart ripped out of her chest
Really? I thought they resolved the "we won't be asshurt by the result" issue and are willing to go forward with their feelings. Both Yui and Yukino are very aware they can lose.
>>139813427
Why do people think Yui and Yukino are all in on their feelings?
>>139813427
>all in on their feelings?
Come again?
>>139805561
Iroha <3
Ugh. >>139816515 was for >>139814699.

What is that expression trying to convey?
>>139816875
>winning the 8bowl was too easy
>>139816988
I don't know, she looks mind broken or some shit. Zaimokuza must have done a number on her.
>>139816845
People seem to think that Yui and Yukino are going to pursue 8man in some form and act on their feelings. I want to know where this logic comes from.
>>139794232
just one of many routes in a game, don't bleed out through your nose. just a trickle of blood is fine though
>>139794551
hope they do a lot of the date, but some of the cute parts of the newpaper project likeIroha bribing Hachiman in front of YY with date pictures, the indirect marriage proposal, and Hachiman sweating away with looming deadline getting shoulder massage from Yui and MAX COFFEE with reverse psychology from the other Yukino
>>139794697
What about those equestrian hardened thighs and buns? when she leg locks 8man he'll have to finish where he started
>>139800967
never, Watari in afterwords mentions a Tobe X Ebina series he'd like his publisher to consider.
>>139816875

>one day all of the girls started falling in love with some faggy classmate which they didn't care before
What is the name of this anime?
Are there any good Oregairu Doujins?
>>139817429
That is because their character songs imply very heavily that they want a future with him.
>>139818958
Yui and Iroha have a SFW doujin from the same authoralthough I'm not sure if at the end it implies he fucks them or just tease them.
>>139818958
Only the 2 done by NtyPe (no H-scenes). The rest are out of character or have different body proportions
Surprise ponpon.

>that jacket
She took him to a hotel?
Bitch took her idea.
>>139818099
That is incredibly adorable. I want this game.
>>139819485
Yui took the news of the mutual confession of Yukino and Hachiman a bit hard; the wedding was postponed until a respectful amount of time after the funeral
>VN without H scenes
Aren't the H scenes the only reason buy those 50 hour long pieces of drivel?
>>139820015
No the only reason we want it are romance ends which the first VN lacked.
>>139819502
Where is he looking?
>>139820081
She's probably telling him to smile, but you know how his expressions get.
>>139820058
>implying this VN will be any different
>>139820015
Pretty much this, although I wouldn't mind romance ends like >>139820058 said.
>tfw we used to be a small cult in /a/ awaiting the gift of the heavens in the form of Spyro's translations
>tfw we had zero to no shitposting
>tfw we had lots of fun
>tfw things will never go back
>>139820255
It is, the first VN had no romance ends because it was a direct rip of Volumes 4 and 5, the only original story being Saki and Yukino's.
>>139820015
You can't beat pacing in VN. Nothing is more exciting than your character providing a 200 word thesis on every sentence another person says.
>>139820318
This thread seems fine.
What do you consider shitposting?
>>139819897
Yui wouldn't kill herself if they got together. She would just cry for a week straight and may not feel like talking to Hikki again.
>>139822583
She did those things you wrote just when she thought Yukino and Hachiman were casually dating.
>>139822665
Yeah but she's matured now and they're both her best friends, she'll cry and probably spend more time with Miura and co. but she won't leave them.
>>139822665
We don't know if she actually cried or not. Plus she is more invested on the three as a whole and less on 8man's dick.
>>139793583
You're really fucked now 8man.
>>139822831
so we don't know if she cries because Yukino and Hachiman appear closer you say?
>>139823005
She just looks a little down and it seems as if she is still trying to process what happened. 8man's dick isn't that important to her.
Any Light Novel readers know who won the 8man?
>>139823326
No, the anime stopped right at the end of the latest novel. No one but Watari and his editors know the end.
>>139823326
vol12, the final volume, isn't out and likely never will be, so no
>>139823097
Don't wear those rose colored glasses when you cross the street, or interact with a woman, you might get hurt
>>139823386
>>139823388
But the anime left a completely unsolved love triangle situation.
>>139823388
>>139823386
What's the most likely pairing then?
90% Yui 10% Yukino?
>>139823388
You realize that this is the time where we're going to get the final Yahari rush, right?
>>139823494
If you actually understood the narrative, you'd know it's the other way around.
>>139823494
75/25 Yui end in ANOTHER
70/30 Yukino end in main story
>>139823423
yes, just like the vol 11 novel did. But no problem, there will be volume 12 but Watari /publishers do time releases of LN with other oregairu media for marketing purposes (maximize the $$). So just have to keep watching those gagagabunko release announcements. Next load of those about a week from now, that's where anything to go in May would be listed.
>>139823494
>90% Yui 10% Yukino?
You're thinking with logic anon, the monster of logic dies with love.
>>139823558
another typical evening in the Hikigaya household, with Hachiman sipping a beer ^h^h^h^h^h MAX COFFEE while discussing things with Yukino
It's inevitable
>>139823854
>>139823842
I have nothing against it.
>>139823899
>>139823989
>>139823842
How would Komachi react if Hachiman seriously got in a relationship with Yukino? I mean Yui is one thing, as she's just a normal girl. But Yukino is supposed to be this transcendent beauty-beyond-words, envied by all, from a rich family, astronomically high grades, and destined to be making gillions of dollars someday.
Komachi wants her brother to get over his loner ego and find love. That much is obvious from all her manipulations. But if he actually hits one out of the park and bags a Yukino, there would have to be an honest moment of shock on her part.
>>139824368
I doubt it would shock her, Komachi just like Haruno jokes about 8man and Yukino already dating but as usual it just flies over their heads.
Besides we already know what Komachi thinks of YY, she prefers spending time more with Yui because she can connect with her and talk to her more freely, but when YY, 8man, and Komachi are in a group it usually gets split with Komachi staying by Yui's side and Yukino and 8man together.
>>139824368
Komachi gets along with Yukino. Yukino has ""seduced" Komachi on ocassion or at least that's how Hachiman describes it as. I think Komachi is going to be incredibly happy for her brother if he ends up with the person he loves.
>>139818958
>>139819355
Sorry but the only good Yahari doujin is the one with 8man and Sensei going to a love hotel, together.
>>139823854
>>139823899
>>139823989
>>139824133
These are awesome. Who did them?
>>139824368
They would be a very dark, quiet introverted and introspective couple though. Night out on the town consisting of sci-fi movie followed by cafe that featured reading with cakes and tea/coffee. Sounds good to me.
Hope Komachi learns about it the shocking way, like she runs into Hachiman's bedroom early one Saturday morning to bug him about something and they are nude under the covers with Yukino sleeping on Hachiman's shoulder. Komachi managed to say "I'm sorry" in a strangled voice while blushing and runs away
>>139824816
Unless their relationship progresses very fast I doubt Komachi will stay in the dark about it long enough to walk in on them in bed.
I think he's going to tell her what he wants to do with the YY girls and what he tells Komachi is going to leave an impression on her.
>>139823842
Oh come on. There's virtually no way to figure out whether this is Yukino, Sensei, Rumi, or Yumiko.
>>139824928
>Oh come on. There's virtually no way for me to figure out whether this is Yukino, Sensei, Rumi, or Yumiko.
FTFY
>>139824928
The small chest rules out Sensei and Yumiko and the style of the front of her hair rules out Rumi.
>>139824745
I see them credited to 春夏秋冬. | あろえ on pixiv but there are a few artists which match that first part.....still searching in there
>>139824928

>>139824368
They'd get along quite well. The only concern I have is that Komachi would be spoiled even more than she already is.
>>139823420
I don't get what you mean. You act like getting 8man's dick is the driving force behind all of Yui's actions.
>>139826313
You act like it isn't.
>>139823558
I really hope Watari doesn't pull any alternate ending bullshit. Nothing I hate more than an author trying to appease every fag and his favorite girl.
>>139826482
But it hasn't. Yui isn't that kind of girl.
>>139824928
>yuifags being delusional over fanart now
>>139826486
He wouldn't be writing two different endings just to make them the same. Expect different winners. Or a winner and no winner in the other one.
>>139826712
Has it been confirmed another will have a different ending? I haven't read it, but from what I've heard a lot of it is straight up copy and pasted from the original LN.
>>139793541
They look pretty good together
>>139826819
Every key scene replaces Yukino with Yui and 8man only cares about rumors with Yui and Hayama. He doesn't give a fuck about Yukino in ANOTHER. None of Yukino's problems show up and she doesn't seem to be in love with him.
Sensei route when?No, seriously. She's the shit

granted Komachi also says she'd like Yui as an older sister too (and the implication is that whoever will be taking care of 8man too), so

The topic has dropped significantly in popularity since the anime ended, for the better.
>>139827278
Well guess that confirms a Yui end for another. Unless WW just wanted to show a different perspective on things. I was really hoping there wouldn't be different endings for many reasons. One of those being how much worse the shit posting will get. Every thread is gonna devolve into which ending was the most "genuine". Fucking Watari you hack. Write your fucking story and stop worrying about what ship fags want.

http://strawpoll.me/6853975
So vote. People have opinions on this issue too.
>>139828873
It's a cop-out. But at the same time I would not begrudge him for it. He has a career to think about. And fans can be completely unhinged in their vitriol sometimes.
>>139828873
Seems most agree with me. I mean I get why Watari might do it. It just seems to go completely against the "genuine" message he's been going with. If you want to give every fan the ending they want, tell them to play the fucking game.
>>139829090
The good pert will be if Yui gets a successful romance and a happy end while Yukino gets the bittersweet end.
>>139829221
Not outside the realm of possibility.
>>139829356
It isn't but boy oh boy will there be shit posting if Yuix8man are a successful couple and Yukinox8man aren't.
>>139829467
There will be shitposting no matter what.
>>139829467
Would there be?
ANOTHER's Yuix8man would be based on a lie.
>>139797517
Taxes I think.
Praying for Saki route.
>>139793583
It'd be super hot if Haruno fucks him right there on the wall.
All I want is for Yukino to win the 8bowl in the first few pages of vol 12 and the entire rest of the book is a long excruciatingly detailed sex scene between the two when they surrender to their passions right there in front of Yui.
Is that so much to ask for?
>>139829696
What lie?
Also why wouldn't there be shitposting if Yuix8man succeeds and Yukinox8man fails?
>>139829696
>>139830285
Shitposting is getting started and we don't even know that's how it's going to end yet.
>>139830285
>What lie?
ANOTHER.
ANOTHER is a world were genuine doesn't exist, where conflict doesn't exists, and where there is no drama.
A world like that couldn't possibly be genuine.
>>139830176
8man isn't capable of catching a glimpse of Yukino's thighs without writing a long winded sonnet in dedication to their beauty. Him narrating a sex scene would take a fucking eternity.
>>139830176
Nice boat
Yukinon should know better than to touch other peopl's Pan-sans.
>>139830421
She took care of that already by breaking the news to Yui at around 900 meters per second.
>>139830176
That's way, way too much. They wouldn't do anything with Yui there. Now if they were alone in the clubroom and things had escalated to where Hachiman was just entering Yukino on the clubroom table right as Yui walked in, that would more believable.
"Yahell-WAAAAAAAH??!!"
>>139830421
>>139830577
So how will the love triangle between these two go? Is Yui done being fair? Is Yukino willing to take an extra step?
Will studio feel be in charge of the movie/OVA?
>>139830869
Probably the same guys that were in charge of the anime
>>139830773
Someone should make a Doujin based on that alone, although knowing how some Doujins go, it will probably end in a threesome
>>139830966
Which one?

What happened to that Iroha thread that was up along side this one?

I wonder if they'd go with her LN hair color which is a more auburn like color
Reminder that Vol 10.5 is the best Watari has ever written and will likely never surpass it
>>139830395
I just finished ANOTHER. What the fuck is Watari even doing? It felt like I was reading a shitty fan fiction. None of the characters even act like themselves and half of it is ripped from the main LN. Yukino seems to be almost non existent and it almost feels like he's setting her up with Hayama, which is literally the one pairing that I have a huge problem with. ANOTHER and Volume 11's ending contradict each other so much it's almost funny. I'm starting to wonder if we'll ever see volume 12. And if we do, I'm not confident the ending will be any good.
>>139832240
Link?
>>139832711
>I just finished ANOTHER
Are you from the future?
>Still no Yumiko route
>>139832711
>it almost feels like he's setting her up with Hayama
I am glad someone else agrees and sees this. YukinoxHayama is likely to happen in ANOTHER. Wouldn't it be funny if Yukinox8man failed in the main series but YukinoxHayama succeeds in ANOTHER?
>>139832826
Yes. Hachiman ends up Totsuka, Yukino and Yui realize they loved each other the whole time and Watari writes a Yuri spin off, Sensei still alone.
The End
>>139832711
>None of the characters even act like themselves
Wrong. If anything Yukino is more in character than she is in Volume 11 as she continues to tease 8man
>>139832711
>Hayama has something he really wants but fucked it up in the past
>It is the only thing he actually wants
>Hikigaya Hachiman and Hayama Hayato will get different ends since they are fundamentally incompatible, possibly meaning that since 8man won't go for Yukino Hayama will
>looks for Yukino for an infirmary scene as he wants to interact with her
>Yukino is not in love with him in ANOTHER
In ANOTHER characters act different just by a bit. Yukino does not like 8man in ANOTHER and she hasn't really made up with Hayama yet in ANOTHER. One of the producers of the show said in the episodes covering vol 9 Yukino only respects 8man and only starts to fall for him in episodes covering vol 10. Since a lot of the development doesn't happen in ANOTHER Yukino doesn't fall for 8man. In the main series Yukino seems done with Hayama but that sort of development never happens in ANOTHER.
Since Hayama hasn't made up with Yukino yet and that there is at least one more scene between them that might be the catalyst to their relationship. You this all the time, estranged childhood friends make up after some bullshit, grow close again, and become an item. 8man gives no fucks about HayamaxYukino in ANOTHER so he isn't a road block.
The vibes in it are strong. Who knows what will happen.
>>139833257
Only more proof she never falls for 8man.
>>139833328
So you're saying in ANOTHER Hayama seeks the genuine but Hachiman doesn't so he gets Yukino. While in the main story Hachiman seeks the genuine and gets Yukino in it.
Yukino is the prize that goes to the one who seeks the genuine.
>>139832711
I refuse to read ANOTHER. I'd rather pretend it doesn't exist. It's not Yui with 8man I have a problem with. It's the fact that there's even an alternative ending in the first place. You mines a well write an ending for every girl WW since you're too afraid of your fans to write an ending and stick to it. Any meaning to all of that "genuine" bullshit has been lost thanks to this AU garbage.
>>139833328
Also, if Yukino ends with Hayama in any fashion this series is officially dead to me. Rather her be with fucking Zaimokuza than Hayama.
Even as a Yukinofag I can live with Hayama x Yukino in another, if and only if it is handled properly.
WW is going to have to make clear how she could have feelings for him in one universe but not in the other. What exactly is the difference between the two. Or else there will be endless arguments about whether Yukino secretly likes Hayama in the main story. If the difference is never explained or if it's just "Hachiman goes for her in one but not the other" then that tells us nothing about Yukino's own feelings.

That's why I have a problem with it. Because I guarantee it won't be handled properly. It's already being handled improperly. Felt really weird how little of a shit 8man suddenly gives about Yukino. I doubt Watari will be able to make Hayama and Yukino make sense in one volume.
>>139833811
Hayama might pursue Yukino in ANOTHER. If he proves to her he isn't a cuck she will act warmer to him. We know she liked him at some point.
>>139834034
Yukino had feelings for Hayama in the main series but they went away in favor of 8man. Hayama won't pursue Yukino in the main series because it is obvious where her heart is.
>then that tells us nothing about Yukino's own feelings.
>What exactly is the difference between the two
Maybe they were never strong for one guy or the other and all it took was a little effort by either to get her. There are tons of parallels between 8man and Hayama.
>WW is going to have to make clear how she could have feelings for him in one universe but not in the other.
8man likes Yui so she never develops feelings for him and never considers him something for romance. Yukino at no point shows that she likes him in ANOTHER.
>>139833871
I would rather Yukino have happiness in both stories Happy ends are good and maybe being with Hayama would actually make her more happy than being with 8man. If she likes Hayama then what is the problem?
>>139832896
>No Yumiko route
>No Orimoto route
>No Meguri route
End it all
I don't think we're going to get an unambiguous Hayama/Yukino pairing in ANOTHER. They might make peace ala vol 10 but without Hachiman in the picture and that could leave the door open to the possibility of them getting together. But it's likely not going to be explicitly shown. WW undoubtedly is aware of the massive landmine such a pairing could represent in the fandom.
But we're not even guaranteed a true Yui end in ANOTHER at this point. There are signs indicating it, but the final outcome may be that the service club turns into something like Hayama's clique in the end. Whereas in the main story it does not but at the cost of breaking apart leaving just Hachiman + one girl.
>>139834034
>>139834417
>>139834839
I just really hate this is even a discussion we're having. There shouldn't even be two different endings. It makes the whole story feel weird and muddied up. I'm just going to keep pretending ANOTHER doesn't exist and Watari isn't a total hack yet
>>139835186
It could turn out bad, but I would advise waiting to see what we get first before we ready the pitchforks and take aim at WW.
>>139835337
The fact that he felt the need to write a whole AU series and Volume 12 STILL isn't out really worries me.
>>139834839
There isn't much in the way of a Yui end. 8man doesn't care as much about Yukino and Yukino isn't in love with him. It is conspicuous to that she doesn't seem to like him romantically but is still acting friendly to him, there aren't any signs of jelly from her and no sign of her minding YuiHachi.
The big factor is if YuiHachi rumors start and how those are handled.
>WW undoubtedly is aware of the massive landmine such a pairing could represent in the fandom.
If it makes you feel any better the jap fanbase hates YukinoxHayama far more than the western fanbase. Their shippers are nonexistent for the most part and it is mostly used to troll. I personally don't mind it is she got with Hayama in either ANOTHER or the main series.
>>139835186
I don't see much of a problem as long as he gets genuine in both.
Watching White Album 2 was the worst thing I could have done as a Yuifag.
>>139835337
This, now, if the LN has a shit-tier ending, then we can start readyinjg the pitchforks and lighting the torches, but until then we should at least take a 'Wait and see' approach with vol. 12
>>139835529
That too.
>The original animation will be titled "Kitto, Onna no Ko wa Osatō to Spice to Suteki na Nanika de Dekiteiru" (Undoubtedly, Girls Are Made of Sugar, Spice, and Everything Nice) and will adapt a story focusing on Iroha Isshiki from the original light novel's volume 10.5.
God
dammit.
Yukino's problems aren't really getting addressed in ANOTHER, but that doesn't mean they don't exist. Yuki-mom may be pushing her to get with Hayama and absent any real connection to Hachiman she might just decide to settle for what she is being pressured to do. ANOTHER could represent a 'bad end' for Yukino, albeit one that you have to have read all through the main story to recognize.
I mean Hachiman retreats from genuine in vol 11 only to turn back to it after he sees how bad it is for Yukino. In ANOTHER he could be turning away from it as well and it won't even matter to Yukino because the connection between the two has not been made.
>>139835579
>I don't see much of a problem as long as he gets genuine in both
That's my problem though. It doesnt feel genuine at all when both girls get their own ending. It's just Watari making sure he doesn't piss off their fans.
>>139835529
It could be that the ending to the main series will piss off so many Yuifags that WW feels the need to placate them.
Why are you worried?
>>139835689
I think we will have either a shit tier ending we will discuss forever or the blandest possible ending (wait for me going abroad Yukinon).
>>139835863
Maybe 8man likes both girls enough that one or two things settles the score.
>>139835861
Maybe WW isn't touching on Yukino because Yukino isn't the point of ANOTHER. I doubt she will have an ending as definite as that. It will probably end with Yui and 8man going out but only showing February or March of their second year and Yukino dropping going abroad hints, the club will stay intact and no one gets destroyed.
>>139835855
what`s wrong anon?
>>139835655
Why? Kazusa and Yukino are nothing alike other than having the same hair color.
WA2 is just a story about an extremely one sided love triangle.
>>139833328
>Yukino is not in love with him in ANOTHER
She is in love with him but just like pre-volume 10, she isn't aware of it.
>>139830176
Final volume spoilers, be advised.
>>139793501
Yukino
>>139836277
I don't want more Iroha.
>>139836198
Even if she's not the point, it's still something that has to be addressed.
In an AU we need to understand the difference between the characters and how those differences change the plot. If Yukino ends one way in one story and differently in the another, how and why does it happen? He has to answer these things or it just causes pointless confusion.
>>139836353
>>139836521
Sounds like you need more Iroha
>>139836387
I still felt really bad for Setsuna, though.
>>139836521
Well, it was pretty obvious that an OVA based on a side volume would happen at the 10,5 volume.
It`s time we see their date unfold in full animation.
>>139836408
Then the YuiHachi rumors will bother her a great deal.
Maybe Yukino has a final confrontation with 8man and ask if he is sure about what he is doing. He says he is and Yukino goes away the next day, she was just a transient part of his life.
>>139836546
>it's still something that has to be addressed.
Yukino's main motivation for a part of this series is to fix 8man. She may decide he is fixed if he has a successful relationship with Yui and leaves it at that. She will be their friend and remain as a close figure even if she isn't as close to them as they are to eachother.
> how and why does it happen?
8man and her never connecting and her never falling in love with him. He just becomes her friend and her friend's boyfriend.
>>139832673
>will likely never surpass it
He already has in the form of 6.5's bonus track and nothing since has surpassed it.
In a single instance so sweet and beautiful leaving Hachiman breathless, with a simple wave and a regular greeting filling his heart with warmth and joy to the point where he starts to hum.
Nothing has been better than that one instance however fleeting it was.
>>139836634
I felt nothing for her. She knew what she was doing. She has no reason to complain or feel sorry for the results of her actions. She's lucky Haruki and Kazusa were so forgiving, it's more than she deserved.
Nevertheless they were the only ones affected so if they're fine with it then it's settled.
That's not to say that I have any issues with Setsuna in particular, it's just important to recognize that she is the one who strayed from the moral high ground. It's a very human thing to do and I appreciate her more as a character for that.
>>139835989
>Maybe 8man likes both girls enough that one of two things settles the score.
It's just a cop out. Watari doesn't want to piss anyone off, but that goes completely against all of the genuine shit that keeps being brought up in 8mans monologues. If the three want to all get something genuine and stop lying to themselves about their feelings someone HAS to get hurt. It's inevitable. But all of this AU bullshit makes it so in the end, no one gets hurt. Every one gets what they want. Which doesn't feel "genuine" to me.
>>139835655
how was white album 2 ? was it bad ? overly dramatic ? romance filled ?
>>139837010
Literally NTR
>>139836387
>Mommy issues
>piano players
>autism
>the one who holds the MC's admiration
>his desire for friendship with that girlhis desire for wanting to know more, going passed just friendship.
It checks out.
>>139836908
> Yukino's main motivation for a part of this series is to fix 8man.
Yes but aside from that she has her own personal problems that exist and impact the way she acts and the decisions she makes (or doesn't make). Anything that she does in ANOTHER will have to be compared against what we know about her in the main story to decide if it's a good or a bad thing for her to do.
She is not a positive trajectory prior to getting associated with Hachiman. And if she never stands up for herself and goes for what she wants, we can't say she ends the series as a healthy individual, even if she is still friends with Yui and Hachiman. That is why if she, say, gets with Hayama we can entertain doubts about how good that is for her. Unless she shows positive development in doing so.
>>139836928
Id rather see this animated to be honest.
But I'm fine with anything getting animated at this point.
>>139837010
WA2 is a better series than Oregairu. It handles love triangles far better and the characters feel more human and more believable. They seem like actual people instead of tropes.
Time for more Iroha
>>139836932
What she did was a dick move, what the MC did was straight up NTR.
I would have taken them breaking up and the proper couple getting established as 'karma' or whatever, but not what fucking happened instead.
>>139837046
im intrigued
reverse or regular ?
>>139793583
hnnnggggg
>>139837140
Yes I can certainly understand that interpretation but from my point of view it's the catalyst of the catastrophe that is to blame.
What Setsuna did caused extreme emotional turmoil for Haruki and Kazusa. Now of course they're still responsible for their actions but I don't think it's unreasonable to afford them some level of sympathy for losing control after weeks upon weeks of internal suffering.
If they were grown adults who were experienced in matters of love then I would agree with you, but that's simply not the case.
>>139837250
Reverse. Its worth watching in my opinion. The characters feel human and the love triangle is handled better than in most series
>>139837424
Everything Kazusa and Haruki did after the night they first kissed was too much.
I mean Haruki called Setsuna to care for him literally the next fucking day, and then kept the fucking charade up until the very end.
>>139837514

Kill yourself.

>>139837514

I seriously hope you mean some shit about characters behaving like real people or something, because the way that love triangle was handled was the wrongest fucking way to handle a love triangle ever.
>>139832162
>>139832162
It's like you haven't even watched the first season. The chara designs look nothing like that.
>>139837072
Okay okay, what about this.
>Yui and 8man go on that promise date and it ends the way Yui always imagined
>his romantic life is good for once and he has a cute girlfriend that is out of his league
>Yui tells Yukinon thinking nothing of it and Yukino congratulates her
>the next day Yui has business and Yukino is alone in the club room when 8man comes in
>Yukino is smiling but it is obvious that it is not a genuine smile, it is an early vol 9 smile
>8man has a monologue about how something is horribly wrong and why didn't he see it earlier
>FIN.
>like pottery
Would you be okay with that? What is ANOTHER was just Yui's fantasy?
>Yes but aside from that she has her own personal problems that exist and impact the way she acts and the decisions she makes (or doesn't make).
We don't know if these problems exist in the AU so although it isn't wrong to think they may it isn't a definite.
>She is not a positive trajectory prior to getting associated with Hachiman.
She got even worse thanks to 8man though before what he did at the end of vol 11.
> we can't say she ends the series as a healthy individual, even if she is still friends with Yui and Hachiman
Maybe she doesn't but as sensei always says someone in the future will step up. That person might not be 8man and in ANOTHER maybe he doesn't care to.
Maybe being HachiYui's third wheel is enough for her. Although for all we know this might make her worse if she is in love with him in ANOTHER.
>That is why if she, say, gets with Hayama we can entertain doubts about how good that is for her.
If Hayama doesn't act like a bitch for once maybe he can be a positive impact on her. I think becoming friends with Hayama by the end of the series would be a positive in her development, ANOTHER or the main series.
>>139837758
Yeah I agree it may not be a bad thing for Yukino in ANOTHER, only that it could be depending on how WW writes it. And it may not even appear to be so in ANOTHER. You will have to read the main story to realize that it's bad for Yukino.
> She got even worse thanks to 8man though before what he did at the end of vol 11.
Agreed. But even before he joined the club she was just sort of aimlessly drifting down Haruno's path without any direction or goal of her own. Will she get one in ANOTHER? Or will she just surrender to having her life controlled by others, such as her mother? It's a very real possibility that part of the reason for ANOTHER is to show how things could turn out for Yukino if she never made that connection with Hachiman.
>>139837758
>Yukino is smiling but it is obvious that it is not a genuine smile, it is an early vol 9 smile
>8man has a monologue about how something is horribly wrong and why didn't he see it earlier
> Would you be okay with that? What is ANOTHER was just Yui's fantasy?
Well that would be kind of extreme. Since there's a decent chance part of the reason for ANOTHER is a gift to Yui fans that would be a bitter gift to receive.
But I think it's possible something like that happens, without the awareness from 8man that something is wrong.
Ultimately because I don't think Yukino problems aren't there in ANOTHER, unless they are dealt with somehow, even if it gets a lot less attention in the story, then we can't walk away from the story thinking she's in good shape. Maybe she overcomes them a different way, maybe Hayama steps up and becomes her Hachiman, maybe seeing Hachiman/Yui motivates her to overcome it. Or maybe it never happens and we are left to worry about her.
The Yukinoshita causality is effecting more than just cookies and her leggings, the universe is even effecting things she loves like Kamakua-kun.
