Anyone else who could match these 2 as the most horrible villains of the season?

There was literally nothing wrong with the ending, prove me wrong.
>>143209086
How does it end?
>>143209931
Watch it and find out.
>>143209931
Miko gets mindbroken now behaves like a 3 year old babby
>>143209931
She ends up giving in to her autism and social retardation and abandons her dreams of becoming a city girl.
>>143210655
Desu. The TRUE END for all autistic wittle grills on /a/. Prove me right.
I hope Biba gets gangraped and killed. Fuck that guy, he's the second Rossiu.
>>143210636
But she behaves the same way as always.
Stupid.
>>143211110
They are nothing alike.
Yoshio and Biba on the other hand both share the hobby of using and breaking little girls.
>>143210636
so cute amirite
>>143209086
Yoshio literally did nothing wrong. When he was told Machi didn't want to become an idol, he stopped. When the village mayor asks him to revitalize the village, he did that. When they asked him to bring Machi to the mall to help her buy something, he did exactly that and got punched for it. Heck, he even helped Machi sell the mushrooms after she had failed spectacularly. He did everything he was suppose to (and more) and stopped when asked to stop. What exactly did he do that makes him a villain?
>>143213934He attempted to progress her life before she approved of it. Literally rape.
>>143214436
How is it rape when it doesn't involve sex?
Are you a tumblrite feminist?
I want to go back to the good old days when it was just about sexualizing and bullying the miko before it became a psychological horror show on how to mindbreak a young girl
>>143215285
But mindbreaking is part of the sexual bullying
Whyt where people so excited to see her miko dance at the contest?
Looked boring as fuck.
>>143215285
I'd take her hand.
>>143215875
>Whyt where
*Why were
The cheering crowd was Yoshio's delusion.
>>143215966
Yeah I realized the typo when I hit submit.
But if the people cheering was Yoshio's delusion and the people throwing rocks at her was Machi's delusion, what did the crowd do?
Was there even a crowd?

It was all a dream. It was all Natsu's dream of being able to talk and fug little grills.
>>143213934
So he's a yes man
>>143216284
>It was all a dream.
worst bear ever?
>>143219644
u wot?
>>143209086
All Natsu did pray to god that his friend should stay with him; it was the EViL GoD who sent her visions that broke her mind and regressed her back into a pre-schooler for the rest of her life. Blame GoD for all that went Wrogn!

This was kind of dark.
I thought (and hoped) it'd be more light hearted, like Gingitsune.

Miko went on a contest, she won that contest, but she had a confusing scared ind thinking everyone hated her. So she went back to the bear and cried, abandoned her dream, saying she wouldn't leave the bear again. Ends with her riding bear's invicible dick
>>143222666
>she won that contest,
She didn't.
She just got a special price.
>>143222536
>Pierre Sugiura
What kind of nip name is that.
Fucking Paris syndrome.
Don't fool yourself, bully episodes were best episodes.
>>143209931
With /a/ hating it for no good reason. For no good reason.
No. Good. Reason.
This anime is literally the plot to a Sanbun Kyouden manga
>>143209870
It was meant to be a joke ending, but the joke fell pretty flat
I guess that is a thing that is wrong with it
>>143222011
>I declined to check the script
They're pros, so I left it up to them
What the fuck was he thinking.
Kuma miko has been the worse anime ive watched
I guess yoshio saying it seriously it was for the village made the ongoing county bumpkin joke dead or flat for the final episode.He should stay the pushy airheaded yoshio. But an ending where machi suddenly becomes good at city stuff is shit for the ongoing manga.
And now the series will be meme'd to death from butthurt neets.
Why couldn't we have more of this? Why can't we have nice things?
>>143222011
Speaking of that. I actually came here because I thought this was one of you autists
>>143224474
The only reason is getting backlash is because NEETs are getting triggered at an anime that actually tells how they will never get over their anxieties.
>>143223731
That is acceptable and I'm glad that at least someone else isn't sperging over this ending.
The way they handled the last two episodes was bad but it wasn't that much of a blunder as people make it out to be. Machi "regressing" was a failed attempt at ending the show with Machi momentarily throwing the towel like she usually does.
>>143224645
So I'm sure this level of projection is the go-to defense? Everything that isn't good is a deconstruction apparently. It's just not a very good ending, though to be fair, most of the show fell flat anyways. The clothing store episode with Hibiki was hot garbage.
>>143224915
>though to be fair, most of the show fell flat anyways
Not that anon but nah.
>>143224915
It's literally the same thing this show has been since the beginning:
Machi being an autist and not realizing that most people don't care about her being from a small town.
Hibiki being a scary delinquent that's actually nice and caring.
Yoshio being a sociopath that only cares about revitalizing the village.
Natsu wanting to be with Machi forever.
The only problem with the last episode was Yoshio's sacrificial maiden talk. I think that dampened the joke a bit too hard.
At that point, the final parts of the show with delusional Machi just got a slight chuckle out of me.
>>143224474
The way a lot of characters are mean spirited towards Machi is what makes it good.
>>143209931
The miko gives up on her dreams of leaving her village for the city, and her bear friend embraces her and tells her that she doesn't have to think or do anything hard anymore. Most shows are about characters aspiring to do great, challenging feats, but in this one the protagonist realizes that everything she did was a waste of time and she never should have tried in the first place. And I find that fucking hilarious.
>>143225006
It surprises me how much everyone has ignored this little, or none at all, development from Machi but now it matters a lot because it's the ending and she has to change for the sake of it.The best outcome would've been Machi embarrassing herself like usual and Natsu telling her that she should persevere.
Everyone is taking this ending way too seriously.
>>143226017
>The best outcome would've been Machi embarrassing herself like usual and Natsu telling her that she should persevere.
I think most people would be pretty ok with that too.
>>143226017
>the best ending would be the one that makes me feel happy
Stop trying to project your insecurities in anime, they have no obligation to make you feel good.
Maybe they were trying to avoid a worse end for Machi
>>143226995
>>143226995
That crepe looks delicious. Why would you deprive her?
ENDING IS GOOD. IT SHOWS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU PUSH DISORDERED PERSON TO HARD.
>>143226995
I think people criticising the ending aren't seeing it under the correct point of view.
If Machi stays a country bumpkin miko, she'll always be pure and she'll be pure until marriage since Natsu is neutered and Yoshio is asexual.
>>143226375
>Stop trying to project
You missed the point entirely. Sure, that would make people happy but an ending with Natsu encouraging Machi to continue following her dream is as half arsed as the ending we got. Natsu and Yoshio showed little interest on Machi's superficial dream of moving to the city. Why should those two support Machi's decision of moving to the city when the best reason that she gives them is that a city lifestyle is full of glamour?
The best possible conclusion for those who wanted a "happy" ending for the sake of it would have been Machi failing and then getting a head pat like usual from Natsu. The difference from that typical ending and the ending we got isn't that abysmal.
I don't want that ending. I'm just saying that anything else besides that is bullshit when there was no room for anything better when most of the episodes ended with Natsu mentioning that Machi isn't very good with modern culture and technology.
>>143227031
adult, slutty Machi is so perfect
>>143227031
I want to make Machi a worthful women!
>Hibiki turned out to be the nicest one of Machi's tormentors
>>143229080
Does it even matter when she'd sell Machi down the river to earn brownie points with Yoshio?
>>143230441
I want to sniff Machi's cute butt.
>>143216298
yes man implies you answer to somebody
Yoshino is the one who's in charge
all of his kindness is just from the goodness of his heart, he does it because he feels like it, not because he wants to keep his job or appease anybody
>>143224295
This kept me from dropping.
I should have dropped.
>>143231267
Do you really enjoy this? Slandering cute, innocent girls on the Internet?
>bad end killed the possibility of ever seeing more lewd miko-butt
>>143232056
She's a child, she still doesn't have a femenine figure.
>>143233653
this was one of the best parts. I wish they did more gags like this.

>Implying
>>143234978
Is Yoshio this retarded in the manga? The anime depicts him as a retarded sociopath, wondering how accurate that is.
>>143222011
>But if you'll hear my thoughts as a fan of the original work
>I think that
>What Yoshio said sure was cruel
She only said something about Yoshio being a dick and wanting Machi to sacrifice herself for the village, nothing to do with how she gave up.
There's a review of the last episode linked in that article too. I suggest reading it for more laughs.
