Just finished yuyuyu, and I actually really enjoyed it. I was surprised at just how little I was able to predict to the plot, at least in the beginning. I wish they would have kept up the gimmick of having the OP change every time something major happened, but it worked very well in the beginning.the only thing that sorta bothered me was the unusually happy ending, but I like all of the fan ideas around Yuki still being a hero
putting that aside, madoka is still probably the better show
i'm two episodes in. i dunno, i feel like i should hate this show? it's incredibly derivative, and completely fails to explain its premises in any meaningful way. it's like "you know it's a magical girl show so fuck explaining anything." makes me feel like i should just be watching some other show. the comedy is on point though, animation is great sometimes, and the characters are interesting.
>>133918932
>completely fails to explain its premises in any meaningful way
It does later, trust me.
>>133918973
i should have pointed out that it could have later haha, shouldn't get TOO judgmental early on. there are some exciting things about it, i imagine i'll finish it no matter what.
>>133918720
It was the only ending that made any sense thematically, and it isn't exactly happy if you don't forget the Vertex are just over the horizon and can invade again eventually. It's also not the end of the story, there is an epilogue chapter called Sonoko After which covers what they didn't had time to explain in the anime's last episode and also drops a few sequel hooks. There's also WaSuYu which is a prequel about when Tougou was a yuusha for the first time, and NoWaYu, which is about what happened 300 years ago when the Vertexes first attacked. The latter is still being issued monthly and might be related to these fan theories since one of the characters is just like Yuuna. I think the next chapter comes out this weekend, and there'll definitely be a thread so try to catch up until then if it interests you.And let's not make the madoka comparison, nothing good can come out of it.
Which yuyuyu would you do really bad things to?
I forgot to add, I tried watching the dub a few times but it is really bad. The person trying to play Yuki especially has series issues conveying any type of series emotion.
Man, the OP is so fucking shit.
But I see is almost end of the month.
Where do I get a preview picture of next LN cover of NoWaYu?
Ded
>>133922734
You could've just said "bump", fucking retard
The ending still pisses me off.
Not because it's a deus ex machina of the laziest kind but because it shits on everything all other characters suffered through and achieved in favour of the blandest one that happens to be the MC.
>>133923462
I was mad at that perfect happy ending too but also relieved.Togo best yuusha
Show ended up being pretty disappointing for me personally.
>>133923462
I would of been happy if even just Yuuna had to bear the cost like she did for while. But no, they took even that away from me.
I wanted a generic, cute happy ending
>>133924045
Me too.
>>133918720
Ending was too happy, I agree, but it also was a sequel hook.
Do you agree that he's best dedicated fan artist for YuYuYu (and VRO)?
I just don't understand one thing
Can I watch it for the comedy and cute girls?
I don't like series with plot.
>>133924216
delet this
>>133924216
Nice
>>133924272
For a few episodes sure, then shit hits the fan. You're really better off looking elsewhere though.
Good series, too bad that Madoka will always come up when speaking of it.
>>133924216
He has good taste
>>133924434
We actually have entire threads without anyone mentioning it when there's new content to discuss and the OP isn't retarded.
I want to fuck Yuuna
>>133924216
Not wanting to sexualize the Yuushas truly is suffering
Enjoying necrophilia with Kairin
>>133920280
Is there even any question?
>>133924216
No, just no.
>>133924216
Or this?
>>133925412
Poor Yuuna has suffered long enough!
The new 4-koma chapter is out. Now is Anzu's turn.
>>133925829
>>133925854
>>133925854
>>133925829
What did Tamanyan do this time?
>>133925892
Everytime they asked something to Anzu, Tamako answered for her instead and that annoyed Tougou so she tied her up again.
Why is Tamako such abrat
>>133924216
Too far
>>133918720
i watched something, but i have to finish it
>>133924216

>>133918720
>the only thing that sorta bothered me was the unusually happy ending
It was a classically bullshit bait and switch end, ruined the whole series for me which was unfortunate because it was good

It had way better characters than the soulless devices that were merely used to push the plot along in Madoka.Get it?

>>133932851
That wasreally awful
>>133918932
The series doesn't spoon-feed until quite late on -- there's a lot of things shown that don't become significant until much later. But you can just settle back and watch it for the cripple moe, instead.
Madoka literally is the Love Live and Evangelion of dark magical girl anime
>>133918720
I think Yuyuyu makes more sense than Meduka, so I like it a little more.
Oddly enough Rebellion goes for the same usually happy ending approach, but it's nowhere near as satisfying as Yuyuyu.
>>133933605
>Rebellion goes for the same usually happy ending approach
I hate this meme. I liked the old meme better.
>>133933605
>I think Yuyuyu makes more sense than Meduka, so I like it a little more.
I need more kairin bullying!
YuYuYu was a blast to watch along with /a/, especially that week running up to the final episode, when Christmas was in fact saved.
Madoka I didn't watch along with /a/, and I didn't enjoy it enough to get much past the half-way mark.
>>133933989
but karin-chan is the cutest when she's shown affection!
>>133934099

>>133934383
Molesting Karin is so easy you can literally do it in your sleep.
>>133934667
You will never be brought screaming into womanhood by Yuuna's godhand technique.
>>133934903
I'd rather touch her inappropriately while she's in deep sleep, that way she won't know or remember it!
What does Yuuna's bellybutton taste like?
>>133935160
The same way a shitty general post feels like.
>>133935056
She's a born and raised yuusha with years of training, she'd wake up and break your arm before you even touched her. You have to do it when she's crippled.
Putting YuYuYu on Netflix was a mistake.

Why does the chanting sound so familiar in regards to the OST
I'm absolutely sure I've heard the same thing in another anime.

They achieved heroism, showed the power of humanity working together, and as a direct result were able to overcome their problems.
I just hope Translator-kun and JJ to appear to translate and typeset the 4-koma.
I want to put my penis inside of a yuusha.
>>133952451
Not happening.
There'll be a bonus 6 pages long chapter titled "Sanshu wandering journey - Hero tours" in vol2 starring Washuyu group.
If you buy the book from Toranoana, you'll get 4 pages 4koma about Wakaba/Hinata's favorite Honetsuki-dori on a leaflet.
The Heroes need to be pure in order to carry out their sacred task. Do not fuck the Heroes. Attempting to do so will be construed as an act of terrorism and treason against the state.

It's time for the fourth hero's room~
Now, today's guest is...
I-Iyojima...
(fidget fidget)
Iyojima Anzu, age 14! First year middle school student!
(dooon!)
Um...
why are you here, Tamako-san?
(Heheh!)
Anzu is Tama's kouhai.
So it's Tama's duty as sempai to back her up!
But it's time for Iyojima-san's self-introduction!
And that's exactly why Tama has to make an appearance as her sempai!!
I'm scared, but I have to try hard, don't I...?
Iyojima Anzu
Um...
No fighting...
(Awahwah)
>>133925854
Anzun, let's start with what kind of hobbies you have~
(We're going!?)
O-okay!
Um, um--
(Anzun?)
Anzun's a book lover!
Auugh!
(Don!)
She even reads when it's time to eat, see~
Just the other day, we were having kamaage and she dipped her noodles into her glass of water instead of the sauce by mistake!
\It was tamazing [TL: she says tamaran with tama in katakana like her name]/
(honya~)
(slurp slurp)
(gong!)
(Uwaaahh!)
You can't tell them that, Tamacchi~!!
(dangle)
Bad kids get tied and hung up.
Tougou
(rumble)
Superstrong~
>>133925886
You really love reading books don't you~
(Wahh)
Y-yes!
I especially love romance novels...
I read a lot too, and I'm even writing a novel myself~
(Tadah)
Web Novel
Sonocchi's Library
ENTER
W-wow! I want to read it!
Okay~
NOW READING
\Next question.../
P--
Please let me call you Sonoko-sensei!
(Tremble tremble)
(Hey!!)
Don't lead Anzu down some weird path~!!
Well, see you again next month----
(Ah geez)
I honestly expected Anzu to be a mature ara ara but this Anzu is fine too
I really want to read Sonocchi's novels someday.
>>133954543
I really want to fuck Yuuna.

Imagine if the Taisha started cloning Yuusha.
An army of Itsuki.
Why is Fū so shit? she ruined the whole episode
>>133956672
Why is Karin such a stuck up bitch?
If you find the answer to one you will find the answer to the other
Now that Karin has given up on Yuuna, who will win the Karin bowl? Fuu, Itsuki, or Sonoko?
>>133956797
Fuu.
>>133956797
Yes
>>133956797
The cards never lie.
>>133957254

>>133962928
thanks
>>133962972
>hype gaijin
>for Pleiades
Please. It was a cute MS show with interesting things, but it never was hype. Stop forcing this, gaijins belong to TTGL and Symphogear.
>>133963064
>the sanctity of memes
Stop forcing this, people will pervert memes regardless and gaijins have been all over the place for years already, more often as an indicator of the fanbase's general reaction per episode than as a continuous hype meter.
If you were the scenario writer of this show, what would you do with the ending?
>>133956797
>Now that Karin has given up on Yuuna
Tougou pls.
>>133963431
Find another sponsor to get us the thirteenth episode we need for everything that was storyboarded to fit.
They knew the ending was rushed, but they had no choice.
>>133962513
Yes. Just never run the dub track.
>>133956797
Sonoko is one smooth sailor
Can you guys let this thread die so we can start off a fresh page when the next dose of our monthly drug hits?
>>133963717
There is no danger of this thread living another 5 days anon.
>>133963717
but it hasn't yet, we don't even have the preview picture of the next cover.
>>133920280
>>133918720
What's the least number of episodes you'd recommend someone gives it?
For example I'd say 5 episodes for Serial Experiments Lain, but at most 2 episodes for SAO, and only 1 episode for Tatami Galaxy even thought it's one of my favourites..
>>133963431
Unfortunately I'd have to cut and rearrange some content here and there in order to reserve the entire last episode for healing, literally. Then it could show things like Fuu and Itsuki taking care of Karin, the first time Karin starts seeing or hearing again, etc. I'd extend the conversation between Fuu and Karin about what they think happened and would have Tougou join them. And I'd use the club room to indicate the passage of time, showing them reunited in there a few times, each time healthier but increasingly worried about Yuuna. Everything else I'd leave untouched.
>>133963901
I'll be nice.
Not the full series. I just mentioned a series that in my opinion should honestly be mandatory for everyone to watch at least twice in full, yet I gave it less than 6 episodes. Have the courtesy of coming up with a number <10
>>133963920
You actually described how it was originally storyboarded.
Hopefully a Roman Album will be published someday that will let everyone see it.
Although some of the material was shunted off into VN2.
Sonoko After was also supposed to be in the last 3 minutes or so of Ep13.
>>133962513
Japanese quality.
For Japanese prices.
>>133963431
I can surely dramatically improve this show if I was the writer.
I won't let the disabilities be cured in the final episode but it doesn't mean simply introducing "BAD END".
Firstly, I set the theme of this show as "mutual aid" which means that "you can overcome any difficult situations if it is provided that the help of others".
The main story frame is as follows:
Hero club has helped the local people and then after they got disabilities, the people who are helped/know hero club help/support them in return.
For example, the children of the Kindergarten come to the hospital and give them a senbazuru to cheer up the heros.
Karin is also utilized in this sense, she's save by the members of hero club mentally in ep3, so in return she helps/cheers the other members after they got disabilities.
By helping each other and being supported by the people around them, their daily lives as the members of Here club are preserved, in which they continue to help others around them even with their disabilities as the "Heros".
To achieve this plot, I may weaken the disability of Karin she got in ep 11, which is too much I think.
Fuu literally can't talk
maybe if that wasn't something so serious, bad ending would be okay, but she'd be mute for the rest of her life.
>>133964145
But where's the catharsis? And will they continue to accumulate disabilities when they're eventually called to fight again?
>>133964013
>how it was originally storyboarded
So this was released somewhere? Source? I thought I was reasonably up to date but it's the first I hear of this.
>>133964277
"the catharsis" comes from the phase transition, form a very bad state to a good state.
MCs have to overcome from some difficulties, which introduces the catharsis.
This can be achieved not only in physical meaning but also mental meaning.
If they overcome from the depression caused by the fact they got disabilities, I can formate the phase transition and introduce the catharsis even though they don't "physically" overcome from the disabilities.
For this, the heros have to be in panic (Yuuna is also) after they found the consequence of mankai, which I modify/newly introduce to sharpen the phase transition.
>And will they continue to accumulate
The vertexes are beaten to the extent that they cannot atack human in coming decades.
The war is not terminated but this is very real, nothing is different form the world we are living and experiencing.
>>133964774
Sounds good, but doesn't leave room for a sequel with the same characters. That might make it hard to get green-lit, since producers usually like to have a chance for a sequel, in case the property proves to be successful.
>>133964774
>>133964277
I also want to say the role of Togou.
She's disabled from the very first episode.
This fact can support/imply the idea that one can live the daily life even with disabilities if appropriate aids are provided.
Utilizing this, I can naturally returns the heros to their daily lives even though their disabilities are not cured.
How to save the ending: Yuuna doesn't heal. The other girls are totally fine.
>>133964774
>a good state
It's not a good state. Not even the canon ending is a good state, it's just a breather. But it's a much more significant and personal relief to overcome the disabilities than to merely push away the foes for god knows how long.
And even if they'd knew for a fact that the vertexes won't attack again in their time as yuushas, or even in their lifetime, you're left with this problem >>133964917
Also toning down Karin's disabilities would dramatically reduce the impact of her awesome fight.
>>133964994
Chitoge pls, she needs to go back to Tougou
>>133964917
How about Madoka?
Maybe it's possible to forcefully create the sequel if you really want as Madoka did.
But maybe the most naturally way is to introduce the new helos.
>>133964994
I like this. I actually think the series would be better off without her in the case of a sequel. She's too good, too heroic. That makes her pretty boring in the emotional and psychological department. I'd like a MC that can provide some degree of internal conflict.
>>133965007
Good or bad are relative concept, not absolute.
The only important thing is the difference or gap between good and bad.
>much more significant and personal relief to overcome the disabilities
This may be true, but, at the same time, very shallow.
Overcoming from the disabilities are just the same level with the MC getting some super power like Jamp animes, naruto, bleach, something like that.
It's obvious that the mental growth is more deep and touching.
Overcoming disabilities in the mental aspect is this level, showing the capability of the sprits of human.
>Also toning down Karin's disabilities
May be. But just by leaving one eye sight to her, it may be ok level. No need to reduce the number of makai, which is the very importance for that scene.
>>133965405
But Rebellion was very decent, 9/10 as the entertainment.
>>133965405
>even Ume hates her
Citation needed.
>>133965405
Rebellion was actually the only time I thought the series came even close to deserving the amount of exaggerated praise it gets.
>>133965655
Hard to believe. Post the promo art.
>>133965701
She was mad, not evil. Not sure why you feel the need to sperg about your fanon every single time.
>>133965733
Because he knows you will reply to him. This happens every thread and his are eventually deleted by mods.
>>133965613
>nonsense
But that was not.
Yeah, tt was not expectable.
But, after all, homura is not a magical girl who prays and fights for people in the world like Madoka.
She's only interested in one particular person, which is also very real as a human and composes nice contrast with Madoka.
So, in terms of the main structure, that "twist" was decent if not 10/10.
>>133965882
>She had no reason to have wanted Madoka all to herself
>reason
>mad
Precisely
>>133965882
Are you talking about this? My Japanese is pretty basic but it doesn't seem to say anything about Madoka not loving Homu and whatnot as far as I can tell.
>>133966124
You're pretty delusional. That's not what the text says.
>>133966124
My japanese is native level and I totally agree with >>133966019.
>ほむらちゃんの未来に穏やかで幸せな時間がありますように。
>…無い可能性が高いかな？どうなるんですか---!!!
Please stop the Madoka discussion here, remember this is a YuYuYu thread, replying to he homuhater is the reason this threads go to shit.
>>133966219
I pretty love the ep3 where karin was introduced.
That episode was perfect and till that, I'm not sure if I continue to watch.
Ep1 and ep2 was actually not that good.
>>133966338
What things didn't you like about episode 1 and 2?
I want to fuck Yuuna.
>>133966338
Why wouldn't you try at least one more episode if it suddenly got better?
>>133966404
Gun-chan pls...
>>133966404
I want toyuck tuna.
I think the daily life or SoL parts are very important for this type of show.
After all, YuYuYu was decent as SoL, which is very different point compared with School Live.
>>133966444
>>133966384
Not that there were things I don't like.
Just that there were not much things I like.
Character design was good but without character development, it doesn't become its advantage.
So were there any point which stands out in ep1, ep2.
>>133966458
Do not remind me
Penis.
Inside.
Yuushas.
>>133966622
If it's about character development, you will probably like episode 4 and a few others, but it's up to you.
>>133966736
Not.
Happening.
>>133966491
Nasu hater, please.
>>133966421
But I tried. 3 episode rule.
After all, yuyuyu was only the girls only show in that season without irritating male MC harem shit.
So I actually had no choice but to continue.
>>133966622
>*?
>>133966664
On the other hand, School Live stands out in its ep1. But that does not mean that guarantees the quality of the show.
>>133966755
Soon™
I wonder what yuyuyu fags are watching in this season.
Me, it is gochiusa and yuruyuri.
>>133966814
>3 episode rule
That's a stupid rule.
>>133963999
Probably 6, since that's when the disabilities kick in.
>>133967069
Same and Hidan no Aria AA
>>133964013
There WAS supposed to be an ep13?
>>133967069
Osomatsu-san
pretty much all the shorts
I saw the first episode of Concrete Revolution and didn't like it much, but I'm thinking of giving it another chance
And Comet Lucifer when I get around to catching up
>>133967069
Gochiusa as well but also Osomatsu-san, Iron Blooded Orphans, Teekyuu ,Hacka Doll and Kagewani
>>133967069
A bunch of stuff, but what I look forward to the most each week is ConRevo, Yuru Yuri, Osomatsu-san and Hackadoll.
>>133967069
A lot of things, but most importantly Soukyuu no Fafner Exodus.
I went through the franchise starting a month ago and somewhere half through the first season I realised YuYuYu is pretty much Fafner with magical girls. The amount of parallels you can make is absurd. If you loved YYY as much as I did, you'll love it if you can get through the okay-ish first half of Dead Aggressor.
I'm also now convinced that we absolutely need something to be shown from the Taisha point of view. I want to see someone's moral struggles about forcing children to fight.
>>133967195
>And Comet Lucifer when I get around to catching up
Don't bother.

Yes there was. They ran out of money.
They did not SUDDENLY ran out of money, they knew they would be short early in production, they tried to keep up the animation quality in the parts leading up to and during the final battle. So they telescoped the last two episodes into one.

From that perspective: "morality of taisha", we can construct very nice theme I think.
I don's think they are likely to show moral struggles explicitly but not that they are pure villains.
Its kinda "the banality of evil".
Their behavior is justified as "it's only the choice to save the world".
Also, maknai/sange is the phenomenons in the realm of the gods which also weaken the consciousness to the ethical meaning of thier behavior.

Again, source? If it's true then I can start placing my foolish hopes in the idea they'll animate the proper ending for the recap movie before S2.
