WHAT THE HELL?
TRAITOR.
DROPPED.
C3-bu was three years ago.
>>140513448
Damn.
Yura did nothing wrong. Edgy Yura is pure sex.
>>140513217
She chose a superior cooler sexier mentor.
Was she really a traitor, or was her senpai just such a disappointing shit that she had no reason to stay with a group of mediocre literal whos?
Also,
>watching airshit that isn't sabagebu
>>140516131
this
yura was a great character stuck in a really shit show
>be a talentless, worthless moeblob
>all your friends bitch at you for giving up when you have no chance to win at a competition
>take it to heart, want to do your friends proud
>train like fuck to never disappoint them again
>get good based solely on your resolve and dedication
>they basically tell you to fuck off and not take things so seriously when they gave you tons of shit for doing the thing they told you to do
>fuck that, find some friends who aren't hypocrites instead
>WHOOPS GUESS WHAT, THEY ALSO HATE YOU
>get a lobotomy off screen and turn into a drooling retard
>everyone loves you now
what the fuck japan
What's with the influx of C3-bu threads lately?
Not that I mind.
>>140516000
Sonora and Rin were both shitty mentors. Rin was even worse because besides being a shitty senpai she's a fucking liar and a hypocrite.
The smartest choice Yura could have made was to tell them both off.
>>140516432
This, and I still don't get what the the thing with the god that she met in the second episode was about.
Or is Yura just actually insane?
Maybe that's why everyone hates her.
>>140516672
Goddamn, wasn't her hope when she started school that she would finally find friends that accept her?
Being Yura is suffering.
>>140516962
Yes. Instead he got two crazy bitches forcing her to become something she's not and then insisting it was Yura's fault when that predictably went wrong, and three other girls who stood by and watched this happen and didn't feel a lick of sympathy for her and who complained that Yura was making airsoft "not fun" for them.
And then there's Rento, who is a pure and kindhearted angel who honestly tried to understand and help Yura, she just wasn't bright enough to actually do so. God bless Rento.
>>140517310
>God bless Rento.
I wish. Has she gotten any other roles after c3?
Life is so unfair.
>>140516962
I genuinely consider Yura one of my favourite female protagonists in anything.
>>140517439
Sure she didin gravure
>>140517439
She had a gravure DVD.
>>140516432
>>140515858
The greatest tragedy of C3-bu was that it would've been the evangelion of anime and airsoft if the director had the balls to go all the way and Spec-Ops the end. He should've realized you can't backtrack from full grim-edge. Azumanga Daioh or K-On! wouldn't had worked if Sakaki had a quarter season long psychotic episode or if say Mugi got kicked out of the band for not being good enough. You don't flip-flop and go all the way, nigger. And you get a hit like Madoka.
>>140513448
>>140513217
Someone post that insanely depressing monologue Yura had towards the end.

>>140513217
She should have assembled her own team and wreck those bitches.
>>140513217
Honestly, the only thing she did wrong was not calling her hit.
As an airshitter, that stuff is very triggering for me.
>>140519502
Yes, since clearly Madoka was all about Madoka.
>goes back to playing with scrubs
I guess that Sonohaters are suffering the same kind of delusion that Yura did.
I keep reading what she told her, but for the love of god I can't remember her saying anything like that, at all.
>>140519557
This. C3 was literally only worthwhile because I watched it with /a/.
>>140518618
Stay edgy grimdark faggot
>>140520108
Sorry to trigger you with the truth, trans-nigger. You can have SoL. You can have an edgefest. You can't turn SoL into an edgefest and go back to SoL. Or you can but you won't sell.
>>140520031
Sonora, get off /a/.
>>140513448
I hate when time passes.
Friendly reminder that Sonora and Karila a shit.

Karila is cute though.
>>140520965
>proving me wrong, by proving me right
Never change, Sonohaters.
>>140520965
>do everything everyone tells you to do
>they hate you even more for it
why did she want to be friends with any of them
Edgy Yura was a mistake.
>>140521095
Sonora was right.
>>140519280
Why is this video still so good, even after all this time?
>>140521228
Ren is a nice girl and Yura was desperate.
Also, she had a spiritual journey that Ren could apparently see too or something. Shit was cash, yo.
So when does shit hit the fan in this show?
I only watched the first 2-3 episodes as far as I can remember and it really didn't click with me, but I'm willing to give it another try.
>>140522377
Fourth episode was when the staff was on acid trip, and decide to completely disregard the source material. After that is the island episode, where Yura lost her way, followed by Looney Toons festival episode, and the sniper episode, where Sonora got pretty much written out, which still didn't stopped her haters for blaming everything on her.
>>140521221
Stay delusional, Sonoshitter.
Oh holy shit I almost missed a rare C3-bu thread. About to fix that shit right now
>>140516131
sabagebu was gay shit, c3 bu is hardcore as fuck.
Where's the "Yura character development" pic
>>140522868
>stay delusional
>says Sonohater
Priceless.
Could it have been avoided /a/?
>>140513448
WAKE ME UP
Okay can someone explain to me what this anime is about? People keep posting like it's some dark stuff but I looked at a few pics and it looks like cute girls playing with airsoft guns. What's the deal?
ur all fags
>>140518618
>>140516432
It's really disappointing to see how C3 backtracked by the end of the series.
I mean it wasn't going to do well regardless so why not just go all out and push the ending. It may not have been a huge success but if the director stuck the landing it would have gone down in infamy.
>>140523436
Gainax took manga about cute girls doing cute airshit, and turned it into drama about delusional girl failing to make friends, becoming edgy tryhard, and falling down the spiral of madness.
How else would the show have ended if it stayed edgy till the end? What would have been resolved?
>>140523708
Nothing would get resolved. Edgy Jurafags just wanted her to actually shoot out the school, and then kill herself.
>>140523436
So like it starts out about a girl who wants to make friends and joins an airsoft club and it is "cute girls playing with cute guns" for about 3 episodes then starting at around episode 4, the series starts turning into some kind of "how hard can one girl's mind break if she wants to make friends" character study. Comparisons to the game Spec Ops: The Line were made aplenty.
The slow degradation of the main character's mind as the show goes on was fucking amazing and the best part was how it was totally not 100% fault because she was basically being shat on by two different mentors so basically everybody did something wrong. Unfortunately, the show sort of backtracks on all this in the last episode.
Watching this show with /a/ was fucking great
>>140523587
does the manga have something like this or is entire ly diferent?
>>140523708
>What would have been resolved?
Nothing, but we would have gotten a memorable finale out of it if it did go full school shooting/airsofticide/"do you feel like a hero yet" ending
>>140523587
So whats Yura like in the manga then?
Best girl. Only one who was truly sane
>>140523884
Completely different
>>140523247
>someone you used to be friends with but who turned into a crazy bitch gives an impressionable younger girl in your school club really bad advice
>you corroborate this terrible advice
>you notice several early warning signs that your "well-intentioned" advice is causing problems

>it keeps causing more and worse problems
>don't say anything
>everyone around you starts hating this girl because you fucked up
>don't say anything
>girl ends up completely alone with no one to support her and no one to turn to because you and the crazy bitch from earlier convinced her that no matter what she does or where she goes she's in the wrong
>sort of kind of half-heartedly admit that you may have messed up in a private conversation with the crazy bitch
>STILL don't say anything to the impressionable girl
>get off scot-free and make the girl wear revealing outfits for your amusement
Fuck off forever Sonoshit. You are nothing.
>>140523708
Nothing, but the world is a harsh place and not everyone gets to be happy.
>>140513448
Seriously? It felt like last year still
>>140524008
Pity her career went to shit because of this shit show.
>>140523708
Honestly any ending would've worked if the series actually built up to it. The whole series was building up to some sort of dramatic conclusion where Yura literally edgelords all over everyone else.
After being a bitch to her original friends and telling the other bitch's group to fuck off, she should've challenged them both to airsoft, show the power of the edgelord or something like that. Then at the end when she single-handedly HITTOHS everyone else, she'll be standing on the battlefield. Alone. It makes her realize that she feels even more empty inside than when she first arrived at school.
Let her drift off alone and transfer back to her old school or something, or somehow reconcile with her friends after going full darkness. Just SOMETHING that the edgy Yura was building up to. Remember that shadow Yura that she fought? No point in that shit if it never showed up again.
>>140517515
Reading that image, I might finally be starting to understand what the point was supposed to be of this show. It was a fun ride, memorable for being weird, but I don't really "get" it.
Was the point that she wanted to be someone who could attract friends merely by being herself? She wasn't that type of person at the beginning, and everything went horribly wrong because she tried to become that type of person by sucking up to mentors as hard as possible? She couldn't be happy until she completely lost it and stopped giving a fuck?
This show feels like it's the NGE of anime but enough time hasn't passed to see how deep it actually was, since it hasn't been continuously discussed for 35 years like NGE has had the benefit of.
>>140524511
I think that was the idea. She was trying to become someone she was not (that's probably why we compared this to The Line so much because "you wanted to be a hero!").
The problem though is that she kept listening to two people who kept giving her shit advice about life and somehow didn't even bother telling her to stop so they kind of had to asspull her going back off from the crazy in the last episode
>>140524511
She wanted to be herself by giving her best at whatever was in front of her because she had a Cinderella complex yet people only truly appreciated her once she stopped caring about being liked and just did whatever she felt like to be happy.Just bee yourself.
>>140524630
I don't recall there being any explicit epiphany for Yura realizing she simply needed to loosen up and stop being such a tryhard. That may be why it's so confusing to everyone why she cheered up and started having fun on the last episode.
She got hardcore as fuck after the haircut, but, contrary to Nisio logic, you can't magically into character development that way. She was still the same wimp all along, relying on other people to tell her how to act until just before the end.
>>140524078
You wrote a lot, yet said nothing.
Yes. She SHOULD have said something to Yura on the island.
She definitely should have said something to Yura after the festival.
But when she DID tried, she got send to the hospital!
She wasn't available, when Yura needed her the most. But that was Yura's fault in the first place. If she didn't saved her from that car, from hers fuck-up, Yura would have died in that car accident. Ignore that all you want, because that's as much as you can do about it.
Blaming everything on Sonora, only makes you deluded fool, twisting words as he sees fit, to justify the hate.
>>140525024
>I don't recall there being any explicit epiphany for Yura realizing she simply needed to loosen up and stop being such a tryhard.
There wasn't
Still rustling jimmies to this very day.
Was it a deconstruction of moe?
>>140526525
Maybe if it wasn't for the last episode
>edgy airsoft where MC is psychologically bullied by everyone except Ren
>edgy Otomeshit airsoft where a girl pretends to be a boy
>and then there's Sabagebu, the pinnacle of airsoft animation
Airsoft seems like a pretty difficult sport to animate without fucking up.
Do you feel like a hero yet?
>>140527320
Nothing wrong with running away from reality if it sucks, eh? They tried pretty hard to Gainax it, but at least it's better show than Trigger trash. I'll at least give them that.
So here's the real question: who would win in an airsoft duel? Momoka or Yura?
>>140513448
>>140527990
Yura at her best (ep. 10) would win, but after that she lost her edge.
>>140527990
Yura is literally airsoft terminator powered by Shinto Japanese archer spirits, but momoka has cartoon physics so tough one.
>>140527990
More importantly who would cheat the hardest?
>>140527990
>>140528266
>>140528525
Momoka beats Normal Yura by using dirty tricks, but she gets annihilated by Dark Yura. I don't know if Mokarin can bullshit her way through Reality Marble Yura though.
>>140513217
Still mad to this day. I FUCKING HATE TRAITORS!
>>140531069
Its not bad if your team is a bunch of casuals
>>140516672
>Rin was even worse because besides being a shitty senpai she's a fucking liar and a hypocrite.
Rin triggered me the most, first was the "victory is all that matters" speech, then she goes and lost on purpose the fucking world tournament to bring her to the dark side.
Then she goes all "I won't put you as attacker even if we win cause muh teamwork" Bitch, you thrown the fucking world championship without even asking your team mates!
Was anyone else confused for the number of team members?
When Yura and Captain were in teams were all of 6 persons, when Cap injures herself suddenly magically all the teams are of 5 (including the official tournament) Then Yura joins the other team and suddenly battles were of 7 vs 7
>>140523525
I thought it was fine at the time I was watching it but in hindsight, I feel like they should've gone the whole way with the shit they were doing. The way they set up some kind of shitty emotional retcon just to stick with a happy ending is just plain bad.
Also Rento a pure.
Just so we're clear, it's not weird to imagine her and Momoka from Sabagebu having kinky hate-sex after a game of paintball, right?
>>140513217
I dropped it when she ruined her hair.
>>140535458
But that was the beginning of the downfall aka the best part
>>140535458
I think she's one of the few who looked better with short hair.
>>140535458
>>140537421
Long hair was more cute.
>watch GuP, hungry for more cute girls doing military/combat things anime
>pick this uppartly because of the ANN shitstorm

You're a pussy OP. This is when it gets good.
>>140537859
Is she fluffy down there?
>>140523708
I just wanted a star wars episode 3 ending, that or >>140524326
If nothing else, at least the OST was nice. In Action! is best track.
I love Yura so much I made her my main background on my vita
>>140541843
That one marching tune gets stuck in my head every time I think about the show. That and COMMANDO
>>140541324
>I just wanted a star wars episode 3 ending
I wanted the "Rento is the mastermind behind all this" theory to be true so much.
>>140541934
Yura was truly a miracle of the universe.
>>140541324
>Don't try to lecture me Sonora. I see the true nature of the airsoft. I do not fear the edge side as you do! I have bought peace, freedom, justice and security to my new airsoft empire

>Yura my allegiance is to the club, to TANOSHI!
>If you are not with me, then you're my enemy
>Only someone who doesn't know fun deals in absolutes. I will do what I must
>You...will...try...
All zealotry aside Yura was actually a damn good leader. She knew all the strengths and weaknesses of her teammates and adjusted her tactics accordingly for each battle, she also ran drills instead of just randomly playing like an idiot. I was kind of hoping Yura would continue on as leader, but maybe she will post-show now that she's lightened up.
>>140528058
underrated post
>>140542645
>It's over Yura, I have the high ground
>You underestimate my power!
>Don't try it..
Yura gets shot running up the hill.
Rolls around in agony that she lost
>You were the chosen one! It was said you would destroy the edge, not become it! Bring balance to Airsoft, not leave it in darkness!
>I HATE YOU!
>You were my sister Yura...I loved you.
They should've used episode 13 to properly develop Yura after she left Meisei and not waste like fucking retards.
>>140518618
Realistically how would a spec ops ending work? It's not like they could reveal Sonora was dead all a long or some shit.
>>140524326
>Then at the end when she single-handedly HITTOHS everyone else, she'll be standing on the battlefield. Alone. It makes her realize that she feels even more empty inside than when she first arrived at school.
That sounds pretty good.

>I should have known the C3-bu was too weak to keep playing
>Yura, not having fun in airsoft is Evil!
>From my point of view, not taking the game seriously is evil!
>THEN YOU ARE LOST
>>140533640
You might be misremembering, she didn't throw it, she ran out of ammo mid-fight and Yura shot her, while being shot at herself.
>>140524326
I wangted her to take on both teams combined, then finish off each opponent with clinical efficiency.
Then a thunderstorm begins, her mud-stained face briefly illuminated by lightning, her eyes are hollow and empty. She then disappears from their lives, and the rest of the cast continue school life with regrets that they failed to mentor an innocent girl properly.
Years later rumours of a female solid snake fighting in the frontlines of the middle east emerge, and the cast thinks they know who it is, and they shudder.
>>140521608
FunThingsAreFun.jpg etc.
>>140513448
Do you feel like a hero?
For some reason whenever I think of C3-bu I think of the Little Prince. You know, in terms of the message carried. "You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed.", and all that stuff. Sonora metaphorically tamed Yura, but she never took responsibility/
>>140543996
The point where her personality took a 180 deg turn made me hard.
>>140543944
would watch
>>140543944
10/10 ending. Would import blu-rays
>>140531069
But she was the aggrieved. Her team betrayed her trust and loyalty.I fucking hate traitors as well but blind loyalty is retarded. It's covert treachery that's the worst. Nothing wrong with openly swapping sides though.
>>140543791
>>140543271
>>140542645
Why is /a/ so against happy endings in general? Is it white people in general who are?
>>140527990
>Yura beats Momoka
>Momoka beats the shit out of Yura if Yura cheats, and whines and deals with it if she doesn't
I still find it funny how people initially didn't trust Sabagebu because of C3-bu.
>>140546003
Did you even watch the ending to this show?
