Volume R of ANOTHER spoilers are out
Yui end confirmed, she gets her Hikki on her route and Yukinon is her BFF. Yukino supports YuiHachi. No HayaYuki from what it seems, needs confirmation.
Sentiment is that it is a clean and nice romcom end, not what will happen in the main series so Yukino end is suspect.
B-But what happens to Iroha ?
>>140755002
She becomes a prostitute.
>>140754940
So Yukinon's end confirmed in the main series.
As expected.
>>140754940
>Yuki end in anything ever
Disgusting when there's so many good girls.
>>140755026
People think that this might be the romance end and the main series will be the friends end. This is sorta too easy and simple.
People are concerned that this doesn't actually mean Yukino will win. Only like a handful of people have skimmed through it so it is as much bullshit as it is here.
So when Yukino thinks HachiYui will happen she supports it but when Yui finds out that Yukino likes 8man she tries to wreck everything?
>>140754940
Fake spoilers and also kill yourself
Good Irohasu, everyone!
>>140755851
>>140755694
It is 2ch making shit up most likely.
>>140755694
>>140755851
>>140755096
Seems like Yukinocucks are mad as shit.
More "spoilers"
>Yukino's issues are never brought up
>Yukino seems to like 8man but doesn't know it
>YukinonxIrohasu is a thing
>Yui and 8man never actually go on the promised date
>>140754940
>ANOTHER
What is this?
Anyone else think that Sensei would get more than just the tip?
This news makes me think there won't be a Yukino end in the main series. The choice might be "genuine" or "romance" and we know who that implies. Genuine might not have romance since this "romance" doesn't have any genuine.
>>140755995
>a Yuicuck implying Im a Yukinofag
toppest of keks
>>140756286
>>YukinonxIrohasu is a thing
Has it ever not been a thing?
>>140756505
>Genuine choice
>in a world where nothing is genuine
I talked to my friend (who I trust totally), and he told me that his cousin read a 2ch post from a guy who was playing an MMO with a girl who's in the same guild as Shoji Gatoh, and he told her that he and Watari got drunk together after Gatoh crashed a party at Dengeki Bunko, and Watari said that Yukino is totally going to win the 8bowl. Also the girl was Konata from Lucky Star.
>>140756633
erm..fuck off, no more harsh reality
>>140756633
ANOTHER is romance and the main series is genuine. That is what I am saying, since ANOTHER has no genuine but has plenty of romance it implies that the main series will have genuine but no romance.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gw4XuKd_n6U
>>140756678
ANOTHER is the romcom where 8man got the ending he expected which is the most obvious romance with Yui.
The main series is where his romcom is wrong as expected meaning he's getting an end he isn't aware of.
>>140756643
I hate myself for laughing at this. Also my dad works for 4chan and he said moots coming back.
Read the spoilers. Yukino doesn't like 8man in ANOTHER and Yui wins the owl.
>>140754940
>Volume R of ANOTHER
>ANOTHER
I haven't been keeping up, what is this
>>140756749
The spoilers imply that it isn't even a Yui end, just an end where he gets on Yui's route. It really isn't an end, just an alternate telling of a few events.
>The main series is where his romcom is wrong as expected meaning he's getting an end he isn't aware of.
No one but Yukinofags and reddit think that. Japan sure as fuck thinks wrong as expected romcom means no rom end.
>>140756814
>Yukinofags and reddit think that
>and reddit
How do you what they think? I would have thought that, based on what I know of them, they would be backing Yui or Iroha
>>140756844
Pro Yukino posts here scream reddit because of how serious they are and how sure they are right. Pro Yui posts seem like angry neckbeards and trolls while Iroha posts spam Iroha. Only one of the three smells like reddit.
>>140756814
>Japan sure as fuck thinks wrong as expected romcom means no rom end.
Everyone keeps reading the title as just another romcom instead of where the title actually comes from.
It looks rather large compared to let's say Volume O which is thinner than my thumb
>>140756902
>all are cancerous
So the correct answer is, as usual, Saki?
>make 10/10 girl
>she's only an irrelevant side character
Japan does this too often.
>>140756905
Enjoy your friends end Yukinocuck because no amount of mental gymnastics will change it. At least Yuifags can hang their hat on ANOTHER.
>>140756956
Who?
>>140756987
Yes yes Yuifags can hang their hat on a lie, just like Yui did.
I won't accept anything but the true end.
HAHAHAHQAHAHAHAHAHAHA
YUI END IN ANOTHER
SOON YUI END IN THE MAIN NOVELS
>>140756940
It's because the number of pages in Volume R are double than the usual.
>>140757056
It's more than double, I'd say triple
>>140755002
Iroha will end up with Tobe
>>140757085
It is 240 pages long apparently.
>>140757020
How is it a lie? 8man seems to be into Yui and holds her hand.
>>140757142
Exactly
Its triple the size of Vol.0
>>140757142
>How is it a lie?
How is it real?
Nothing in ANOTHER corresponds to the real world, it's the Fairy-tale ending.
what the fuck is going on?
spoiler or being the actual release?
I couldn't care less about who 8man will end with
all I wanna know is how he finds out something genuine out there
if that means finding some love interest, I'd drop
>>140757177
To add to this
It's 9~ pages longer than 10.5 and 80~ pages shorter than 11
>>140757183
>How is it real?
It happened and was written by WW himself.
>Nothing in ANOTHER corresponds to the real world
All of it does. 8man never learns of Yukino's problems and spends more time with Yui so he starts opening up to romance with her.
>it's the Fairy-tale ending.
Why are Yukinofags so mad about ANOTHER? It is fine.
>>140757226
Dang. So it will probably go as far as v day or at least the chocolate making event.
I the spoilers are true ANOTHER was really harmless.
>>140757239
>How is it a lie?
>It happened and was written by WW himself.
Watari himself in the afterwords of volA said to not consider this series canon to the main series.
>>140757239
>It happened and was written by WW himself
And is not connected to the main story in any way, said by WW himself.
>All of it does. 8man never learns of Yukino's problems and spends more time with Yui so he starts opening up to romance with her.
Her problems don't exist in ANOTHER, no ones problems exist in ANOTHER.
Not Yukino's, Miura's, Yui's, Hayato's, hell not even 8man's.
It's a perfect world that only exists to focus on Yui and nothing more.
>>140757383
So it is Yui's grief induced dream then?
I love these threads, because no matter how the main series ends, the majority of the audience will go positively apeshit.
So has WW successfully insulated himself from Yuifags' rage?
>>140757383
In vol R Yukino gives up her feelings for Yui's sake. She doesn't make any chocolate. This must bother you.
>>140757383
I bet you were that anon with a theory that WW was going to use ANOTHER to shit on Yui and prove she isn't genuine. You were so confident too.
>>140755995
B-but anon, I'm a Yuifag calling out fake spoilers when I see them.
>>140757476
First it's said she doesn't have any feelings, now it's she swallowed her feelings, which is it?
>>140757522
Who?
>Vol. 12 scans come out
>ponkan8 illustration of Hayama and Cuckino holding hands
Can't wait for the shitstorm
>>140757787
why she is so sad?
>>140757770
stop it stop right there
>>140757821
Nope, she ain't said, those are tears of joy
>>140757656
No feelings one is just some Yuifag.
The swallow her feelings and support Yui is true however.
>>140757893
To add to this it seems like it is entirely possible that after vol R the story can end the exact same way as the main series.
>>140757959
Isn't Volume R it's own conclusion though?
>>140757471
This will be the end of the main storyline. It cannot be prevented.
>>140757476
>She doesn't make any chocolate.
HAHAHA YUKINOFAGS BTFO
This is a good day for Yui and Yuifags.
Whatcha thinkin', anon?
>>140757989
To ANOTHER but it really isn't like an end at all, it has a really open end. If we weren't told it was the end people would think about the next volume right away without question.
erm...Period Choco?
>>140758004
Sex. Missionary. Reproduction.Hand holding.
So what exactly happens in ANOTHER? What are some of the events.
>>140757939
WITNESSED
>>140758113
No promised date but Yui is pressuring him
Copy paste from vol 11
Changed chocolate making event that has no jelly and no Yukino making chocolate
>>140758198
And where does it leave off though? Is Volume 12 the continuation of R or is ANOTHER its own conclusion?
>>140754940
Watari is a hack that's afraid of his fans confirmed
>>140758198
>No Yukino making chocolate
You know what this entails right?
What was in the bag was definitely not cookies, Yukino broke the rules for the first time and it was because of her feelings for 8man.
Anyone know where I can find more Sensei pics?
>>140758297
Yeah, this is kind of sad. Not even angry, but wanting something genuine has been reduced to I want a girlfriend.
>>140758347
Just because Yui wins ANOTHER that doesn't mean Yukino wins the main series. It implies more that something awful happens to Yui's heart in the main series.
>>140758322
>You know what this entails right?
Yukino doesn't like him in ANOTHER or does it imply those are chocolates in her bag?
>>140758332
the usual
pixiv, twitter, etc.
>>140758347
so, wtf is genuine?
>>140758424
>or does it imply those are chocolates in her bag?
Yes, it means Haruno was right.
Yukino was making chocolates for 8man.
>>140758453
Meaningless drivel. It doesn't matter anymore, all it means is that Hachiman wants a girlfriend. The end.
>>140758484
>those treats in her bag were something special for 8man
Is this somehow a surprise to anyone?
>>140758453
Something where he understands someone so he won't be left with his dick in his hand. He doesn't want to guess and keep guessing.
>>140758557
>Is this somehow a surprise to anyone?
Yes because it means she did what no one else did and broke the school's rules.
I got to thinking, isn't ANOTHER's end too perfect? I mean no one is hurt and everyone has a nice ending. So does that mean the three have a terrible ending in the real thing?
>>140758557
aye soulmate, good luck then, he has better chance to understand ppl by being a psychiatrist
Yui winning in the BD novels bodes well for the main series given her fortune luck and development of her character.
Yukino is too troubled in the main series. We cant even be sure she has geniune feelings for 8man, she could be just copying Yui
The 8bowl is over
>>140758591
Wasn't half the fanbase already predicting that?
>>140758453
>>140758486
Genuine is that thing 8man spouting after Yui told him about her dead cat and before "I hate nice girl" monologue.
>>140758764
Yes but there was no way to confirm anything until now.
SENSEI ON THE FRONT PAGE!!!
>>140758891
it is weird that ramen is a common bar food to go with alcohol
>>140757183
>Yukinocucks: 'It's not canon!!! Fanfic xddd'
>Written by the author
Why won't you just accept Cuckino won't get a happy ending?
>>140759004
>Written by the author
>Explicitly stated by the author it's not canon.
Stop clinging to your lies Anon, accept reality for what it is no matter how cruel it is.
>>140757224
>implying genuine is anything other than getting a gf
>>140759109
Yukino won't get an end with 8man. ANOTHER confirms it.
>>140758438
>tfw I have to read moonrunes on Pixiv to navigate the sensei pics.
*Sigh* at least I can click the tags to make it easier.
i am not saying i am like 8man but currently i have no friends or anyone to talk with and i wish for genuine or at least the ability to understand what others are thinking when they interacting with me
>those smiles, are there true or business smile?
>those concerns, are there true or courtesy
but on the mean time,i cant find the energy to change myself for the current situation
Surprise ponpon strike.
>>140754940
>source: my ass
R for romance. This means that the last vol won't have romance. Enjoy your Yui end, Yuibros!
>>140759469
Actually it is 2ch.
>>140759491
Yes. It is great. Yukinofags will never see their girl win.
Nice to see these threads are antagonistic as ever.
>>140759719
cat vs dog
the eternal war
I hope the anime does the Yui route, fuck I would be fine with an OVA if they go for a canon ending
Yui end with service club intact in ANOTHER. The difference from the main story is that a Yukino end would send Yui packing and mean no friendship and the effective end of the service club.
The fact that A ended so predictably means that the most predictable outcome for the main story, Yukino end with Yui taking a hike, as foreshadowed by the "words of the ancients" in vol 10, is probable.
The only real question is how much of a Yukino/Hachiman romance will there be. Will it end sadly after being together one year? Or will it work out somehow.
>>140760269
> The fact that R ended*
What do you think Yuimom has seen?
Victory sealed.

>>140760443
Disregard my >>140760590 post, wasn't supposed to reply to you
>>140760614
Nah, more like Yuimom watching her daughter get roughly fucked from behind by 8man.
>>140760650
is Yukino there? i forgot
>>140760360
Yui swinging from the ceiling fan after the end of the main story.
>>140760650Exactly.
>>140754940
Anime only fag here. Is there a clear winner on the main series?
>>140760711
Yukino

Nah, 8man's planning on heading to Yukino's apartment after he's finished with Yui

>>140760845
> Iroha
> Even being relevant to the plot anymore
You poor thing
>>140760845
That would definitely cause a storm of tears.
>>140760881
But seriously, it's Yukino
>>140760719
>>140760729
>>140760734
>>140760737
>>140760760
So you have no idea who's going to win.
>>140760881
>>140760917
No really Kawasomething or another is going to win
>>140760917
No we do, it's Kaori that's going to win the 8bowl
>>140760917
They know who the winner is, but admitting it, is admitting defeat to them.
>>140760967
This would work.
>>140760917
At this point, we can feel pretty confident it's going to be some sort of Yukino end, whether happy or sad. How exactly that turns out remains to be seen.
>>140760902
But Iroha is so much better than Yuckyshito
>>140760967
laughing cow
Main series winner coming through.
>>140761023
In what way other than pleasing random boys for money?
>>140760881
dont be sad, Saika is only his best best best friend
If you didn't drop this after GENUINE then you're actually a dumb piece of shit.
>>140761038
Who is that? She looks vaguely familiar, like she's some early series character that has not been relevant in many volumes and people who like her are pathetically clinging to scraps even worse than Kawa-something fans.
>>140761023
Yes that's true, but that doesn't contradict what I said.
>>140761062

>>140761062
>dropping before 10.5
actual dumb shits
>>140760917
Yumiko
>>140760269
Isn't the whole point of Another to be this predictable romantic comedy ending though? I think this means the author might take a more risky route with the main series.
>>140760779
Notice that no one saidYui?
>>140761090
erm..fuck off
>>140761090
>He doesn't know Totsuka's a dude
>>140761112Volume 12 has a sad Yukino cover mirroring 11
>>140761042
Give Iroha some credit. She doesn't please random boys for money. She sucks rich old cock for money. I mean come on. She has SOME standards at least.
>>140761112
Well, it could take a bittersweet turn. But we can feel sure that in the main story when Hachiman chooses he will choose Yukino.
Whether the bitter part comes from watching Yui fade away or from the romance itself, remains to be seen.
Ya'll niggas arguing over who should win the 8bowl, when it's obvious that this guys going to win it.
>>140755995
I'm not mad. Yui possibly won in a title called ANOTHER, Yukino'll win in the MAIN series. It's a cheap move on Watarin to pacify both sides.
>>140761176it's your cue.
>>140755995
What is there to be mad about? ANOTHER ended exactly as predicted. It is Yui's "happy end" while the main story will be decidedly less so for her.
That does not imply the main story will not end happily for some other characters, such as the canonical pairing.
>>140761428
Don't you see, the only GENUINE ending is with Hayama
It will be very interesting to read vol R and see just how it got the ending it did.
>>140761277
The only thing Hayama is going to "win" is a tape of 8man getting double teamed by Yukino and Haruno.
>>140761670
What about Iroha? considering that she has an 11inch Futa-dick
>>140761730
> an irohafag
>>140761670

No that's Zaimokuza.
>>140762167
I thought that 8man was Watari's Self-Insert?
>>140762245
8man is Watari's fantasy, Zaimokuza is his true self.
Speaking of Zaimokiedw, how much time before he exploded from sexual frustration and rape___
>>140762347
Zero, Zaimokuza is afraid of even talking to girls.
The only girl he seems even remotely comfortable talking with is Ebina.
>>140762570
Right on, pity sex when?
So, this became another shitposting thread without any revelant information about what the thread was created for. Oregairu fanbase is so fucking cancerous.
>>140762890
>revelant information about what the thread was created for
What information? There's nothing new to report.
>>140762890
Yea because everyone here can read japanese and they all have their copies and are busy furiously reading it
Since Yui won ANOTHER does that mean she will win the Hikki in all universes or does it mean that Yui will have her heart ripped out of her chest and then stomped into a fine powder leaving her a husk.

>>140757122
What about Ebina, then? Zaimobro?
>>140761534
Go back to shlicking to yaoi, Ebina.
There should at least be one threesome end somewhere.
>>140764453
Only in the Doujins or our imaginations /a/non.
>>140764543
I just don't wanna see neither Yui nor Yukino suffer, man.
>>140763986
I think the whole point of HayamaxYukino was that 8man was being paranoid. 4chan just loves NTR.
>>140761361
Yui is cute but kind of a dumb gyaru
>>140763271
That's exactly what he's saying. You guys are just shitposting the same stuff over and over again every thread.
>>140765074
>dumb gyaru
delete this
>>140765116
I like her but all she has going for her is her forced optimism and nice rack.
>>140765200
She also really loves Yukino and tries to make her happy. In my opinion she's a really noble girl, super kind and sweet to her loved ones.
>Yukinofags pretending that they didn't just get BTFO
Kek. Yui just won and you guys are acting like Yukino won. ANOTHER today, main series tomorrow.
>>140765200
Yui is a beautiful human being who is too sweet for this world, to the point that I wouldn't even try to motorboat her in bed if she wasn't comfortable with it.
>>140765200
Read the LN
>>140765074
>You guys are just shitposting the same stuff over and over again every thread.
Hajimemashite. Kore wa /a/ desu. Douzo yoroshiku onegaishimasu.
>>140762319
Didn't Watarin mention in one of his afterwards Zaimokuza were based on someone he knew and a friend.
Hachiman is his ideal. And in the Qualia Code anime, the male character he wrote is basically another Hachiman clone.
>>140765377
Yui won what?
>>140765472
They're both slight variations on Kyon as well.
>>140765472
So, Hayama is really his self-insert?
fuck I still believe that the perfect main ending, is that one of Hachimann ending with none.
He will be consumed by his own bitter self, sacrifice his shit to not hurt any one, at the end he will get a proper bf for every girl, the teacher,, yui his sister, and the most hurtful sadistic way, give yukinon the correct ending with a boy of her own, then hachiman will slow fade from their lives, by slowly decay and self bitterness,. Even their 2 bros will move on, and they will know how hachiman fixed everyone life, they respect that and everytime they get together as friends they respect his decision by living to the fullest and letting him be alone somewhere apart, Not talking about him but remembering by just themselves,
>>140765772
ow, the edge
>>140765772
I don't think you got the point of this LN/anime, anon.
>>140765832
I Actually think is better than thee cliché ending.
I mean, it just fits.
>>140765772
as much as I want a legit ending for once, I kinda want this one more.
>>140765772
this is perfect, Anon

>>140756804
>>140756397
Reminder that ANOTHER is fanfiction tier and shouldn't be taken seriously (as much as I like Yui)
>>140765938
is hachiman a normal ln?
That what we deserve.
Because he's the hero /a/ deserves,
but not the one it needs right now.
So we'll hunt him...
... because he can take it.
Because he's not our hero.
He's a Silent Guardian...
...a Waifu Protector.

Yui will definitely have her romance ending. Whether it'll end on a bitter note or a sweet one is still up to Watari's hand. Both doors are still open, unlike other series which torpedo'd every surviving ships, or giving huge lead in the middle of the series.
>>140766909Graduationend.
I read the thread on 2ch. Posters were all over the map but one thing remains clear, it is a perfect Yui end without any resistance and YukixIro happens.
Unless everyone is lying which maybe the case since no one there has actually read it.
>>140767480
>Yuki X Iro
Wait what?
>>140767521
Iroha calls Yukino "Yukino-senpai"
This is a big deal apparently.
People are also convinced that Yukino knows she likes 8man but pulls back because of the status quo and Haruno is done with 8man.
Why do people lie on the internet? A day from now we will know what is bullshit and what isn't.
>>140767705
>Haruno is done with Hachiman
In what way? Because he didn't go for Yukino?
>>140767705
>Iroha calls Yukino "Yukino-senpai"
inb4 Yuki X Iro Doujins
>People are also convinced that Yukino knows she likes 8man but pulls back because of the status quo
I see, fair enough then
>Haruno is done with 8man.
Explain?
>Why do people lie on the internet?
Because people are assholes
>A day from now we will know what is bullshit and what isn't.
That's true I supposed
>>140767827
Basically doesn't interact with him at all despite being in the same room with him. Before and in the main series she did everything in her power to interact with him.
>Because he didn't go for Yukino?
Why else? It just proves Haruno has no interest in him outside of her sister wants to bang him, providing this isn't fanfiction troll posts.
>>140755880
not when the English translator of volumes H and E of ANOTHER confirmed it
>>140767936
Makes sense. It was the only reason she took an interest in him after all. He's essentially a big disappointment to her now.
>>140759200
Please elaborate or fuck off with your shit posting
>Yui wins ANOTHER in a very sweet and perfect fashion
This doesn't necessarily imply a Yukino end but it does imply that Yui will not get a good end. What are the ways Yui realistically won't get a good end?
>>140767948
Yeah, a Yui end is a given but not much has come out as of yet.
>>140756987
you are funny, the foreshadowing in the main is very clear
ANOTHER has bizarrely out of character actions
Yuifags are easily manipulated
>>140757239
we're not mad about ANOTHER, we're laughing at how shallow the Yuifags are, they are brainless airheads same as Yui so a grossly out of character fanfic makes them happy
YUKINO AND HACHIMAN ARE PERFECT FOR EACHOTHER. IT ISN'T FAIR IT ISN'T FAIR. THEY LIKE THE SAME THINGS AND LOVE TALKING TO EACHOTHER. YUKINO CHANGES HIM AND HE CHANGES HER, THEY ARE SOULMATES. THEY ARE ATTRACTED TO ONE ANOTHER.
YUI IS JUST A DUMB BIMBO THAT ONLY WANTS HIS DICK AND NOTHING ELSE. SHE WOULD BE FINE WITH A LIE IF IT MEANT ONLY SHE IS HAPPY. SHE DOESN'T DESERVE HAPPINESS. IT ISN'T RIGHT.
WW IS A FUCKING KEK AND I HOPE HE CHOKES TO DEATH.
Has this even been confirmed at all? This could easily be some fags trolling. They pulled the same shit with other volumes
>>140758073
equestrian toned leg locking to ensure fertifization
>>140768229
Independent reports claim a Yui end. Nothing more is confirmed.
>alternate ending
Why?
>>140758347
you have it wrong, ANOTHER is detached and separate from the world of the main series. it's just a fan fiction fluff piece for Yui fans, nothing more. No deep meaning, unlike the main series which has several rather serious topics
>>140768326
So yuifags don't kill Watari in his sleep
>>140768336
>>140768061
>>140768119
>W-we're not mad
ANOTHER makes you guys livid. Give up, there is no reason to be this bothered.
>>140758998
delet this
>>140768304
I'm almost hoping they're fake just to see all the backtracking some people will do
>>140768423
I'm not mad. I'm kind of disappointed. I had hoped Watari had a bit more integrity than this. He has now reduced the series to harem shit.
>implying it wasn't always harem shit
Sigh, yeah I guess. Now it is.
>>140768443
Why? Yuifags are happy and Yukinofags are meh right now. This is a better outcome then we could have hoped.
Although I want more detailed spoilers.
I haven't been paying attention at all since last year. So these are the pack-ins with the S2 blurays, and it's an alternate universe?
>>140768491
It may be haram shit, but now it is certified, genuine haram shit
>>140761927
Hayama loves Yukino but destroyed any chance of romance with her by something he did in the past that failed to protect her from bullying and kept his comfy clique and status quo. You'll notice he confuses Hachiman with phrases like "so I won't mind losing to you". He's going to get NTR'd and cucked when Hachiman wins Yukino.
>>140768519
AU with a different heroine winning with none of the themes kept from the main novels. Basically fanservice/please don't torch my car.
>>140768558
If Yui wins in the main series that would give it more meaning.
>>140768336
So if Yui won in that main series you would be cool with it? I imagine a lot of people would be fine if the same heroine won both series.
>>140768513
I just really hated the whole idea of different endings. It is no longer possible to claim this story had more meaning than which girl wins in the end. This also makes it obvious how the real series will end. And anyone claiming it will be some deep loner ending are still lying to themselves
>>140768625
Much better
>>140762570
and Totsuka
>>140768617
Hayama wins Yukino in ANOTHER judging by the spoilers.
>>140768657
As a Yuifag I would love for a loner end in the main series. It would fit and make Yui the only girl to win Hikki's heart.
>>140768660
Whatever
>>140763527
pretty clear where the main series is going with Yui
>>140768657
People on 2ch are thinking that it is Yukino's "I'm okay" end. That would give it some meaning outside of throwing Yuifags a bone.
>>140768721
DELETE THIS!!!
>>140768721
>Yui's funeral
>she dies from suicide
>8man and Yukino attend the funeral
>they consummate that day, either right on her grave or later that night
>name their first girl Yui
Pottery.
>>140768692
>Hayama wins Yukino in ANOTHER
Where are you seeing this? OP is claiming the opposite. Or are you just shitposting?
>I would love for a loner end in the main series
It isn't going to happen. Id say it's pretty obvious how it will end
>>140768380
>Just kill Watari in his sleep
>Not firebomb the entire ChibaPrefectureout of spite
>>140768730
From what I've read her problems are literally non existent in ANOTHER so I guess she would be okay.
>>14076770
that's normal for girls who are close friends but one is upper classman. basically in ANOTHER Yukino has two girls she can call close friends.
>>140754940
If it ends with Yui I will be genuinely upset.
>>140768304
So when can we expect some confirmation on these?
>>140768692
>Hayama wins Yukino in ANOTHER judging by the spoilers.
Read better or stop shitposting
>No HayaYuki from what it seems
It's only mentioned YukinonxIrohasu is a thing.
So is this why volume 12 is taking forever?
>>140768982
Who cares anymore. Watari took a dump over the main series and this whole hurr I only want things that are genuine theme. The series is just generic harem now. Just to remind you that Watari has made the entire fanbase wait for an entire year to shit over all the themes and messages of the main series.
>>140769058
where can i read the translations?
>>140768982
Eh I was going to be at first, but I don't read fanfiction. So I can just continue pretending it doesn't exist.
There are spoilers on twitter.
Yui winning ANOTHER is a great sign for Yui in the main series. Today was a good day.
>>140768863
They won't go so far as name their kid after their friend who suicided.
Yukino and Hachiman will get a peach cat with long-hairedd and fluffy almost ball-like tail. This cat will be a very fat, stupid and lazy cat and they'll name it Yui.
>>140769088
don't be silly, these were just extra material thrown in with the blu-ray discs of season 2. only for fun and nothing more. you are trying to ascribe meaning to something that wasn't intended to have any
Yui wins Another. Confirmed.
https://twitter.com/mamo3001/status/725337412398772224
>>140769179
>a great sign for Yui in the main series
sure, if certain kinds of things turn you on
>>140769179
I actually think it means the exact opposite. Why would Watari feel the need to write a whole AU if things go great for Yui in the main series.
>>140769280
Not trusting anything until we get scans or page pics.
>>140769280
Am I missing something? How does this confirm anything?
>Vol.12 ends with 8man committing suicide
>WW found dead at his home the day of release
>>140769352
I think he likes his windshield and headlights intact.
>>140769280
>some fag's twitter
Scan or someone posting with a scan.
>>140769273
There wasn't anything "just" about this. We could have had a proper conclusion to the series months ago. Not only did the entire fanbase have to wait an entire year for a conclusion, but now whatever conclusion we get is meaningless. The only way for the series to have any meaning now is if Yui wins in both routes and Yui is Hachiman's soul mate. Which is absolutely awful.
>>140769423
>Watarin committed career suicide
Pottery.
>>140769393
This nip read it and posted pics of the volume. Yui route in Another, hopes there will be a Yukino end in 12.
>>140769088
Dont' worry too much, Watari himself said in the afterword of volA to not consider this series canon to the main series.
>>140769432
>I think he likes his windshield and headlights intact.
Which is why he wrote Yui her own little fairytail ending.
>>140769468
>Posted pics of the volume
>Wow, he must be telling the truth!
>>140769468
Isn't that exactly what people are 2ch are doing? I still don't see how this confirms anything. It's just more of what we've already heard.
>>140769493
Christ, just go on his page and read what he says and retweeted about Another.
Or just type 俺ガイル and look by yourself.

>>140769493
He knows more than us. The problem is he only says what everyone else has said. It is just some guy.

The face is a bit QUALITY but not delet worthy.
>>140769164
>reiterating what's been said
>>140769058
My body is ready for volume twelve.
Watarin technically commited career suicide with ANOTHER; some fans are probably expecting Yui to win in the main because of this.
I can smell the burning of books already.
>Even though I’m currently working on this novella, I’m not abandoning the main volumes. So read them both! Promise me, okay? TIll the end! I sound like some grade school kid now, but seriously, read them both. The resulting effect will be, so to speak, a WIN-WIN!
Quote from Watari in Volume A afterword. Sounds to me like both girls will be getting their own ending.

Is this going to end like Haganai where nobody is happy and everyone is mad at the author?
>>140769677
So genuine means I want a girlfriend. Pffff ahahahahaha. Nice job Watari.
>>140768326
>in one of the afterwards for ANOTHER Watarin said he would like to write the story from Hayama's perspective
He should've went that route. That's why the VNs exist for this type of stuff.
I like Watarin and all yet to borrow a phrase for a smart guy, he is pretty stupid.
>>140769754
WW is dumb as fuck holy shit. I haven't read this in a while.
>>140769527
I did read what he said. There's no proof that it's legitimate fuckwad.
>>140758259
>A-at least Yukinon and Hikki will wear a condom
>>140769777
Yes. Watarin is going to take a page out of Yomi's notebook.
>>140769966
Yomi was mad as fuck at everything. WW looks like he is happy and doing well. WW doesn't hate his fans either.
>>140769677
I'm ashamed for ever thinking this story was about something other than who wins in the end.
>>140770045
First harem?
>>140770045
It still is. Getting a girl is just a side effect.
>>140770073
I was just lying to myself the whole time
>>140769962
having latex between their intimate parts wouldn't be genuine. Yukino can afford birth control that doesn't interfere with intimacy
>>140770123
Well to be fair anon I thought this wasn't a run off the mill LN too, turns out it was just trying not to be.
>>140770073
Oregairu isn't a harem though. Only one girl likes him and she got her romance end in ANOTHER. In the main series he will get an end meaningful to the series' themes.
>>140770176
>only Yui likes 8man
Are people still posting this meme?
>>140770095
No, it really isn't anymore.
Everyone complains about Watari being a sellout, but to be fair your integrity is an acceptable price to pay for not getting murdered by Yui fanboys
>>140754940
Where can I find thing about ANOTHER? I have tried various time but my Google-fu is subpar. If you would, please, gentle /a/nons.
>>140770142
Yes but she doesn't know where Hikki's dick has been and pills don't always work. They should use both. I don't want Hikki tied down, it would be hard for them to break up if Yukinon got pregnant.
>>140754940
Then, your spoiler would not be true because you request confirmation.
>>140757994
It's the one and only ending.
>>140761670
but, maybe your assumption is the best ending.
>>140766909
should be Haruno's end. Saika wants to be his good friend.
>>140768221
wow lol
>>140769777
Yuifags should be happy if these spoilers are true. If the main series doesn't end with a Yukino end now though, yukinofags will be out for blood.
>>140770313
Dude even if Yukino wins in the main series it doesn't matter. Watari has killed off any meaning the story could have had. Hachiman's feelings are decided by which girl he spends time with the most in the last parts of the series. Genuine is a fucking coin flip.
>>140770313
>If the main series doesn't end with a Yukino end now though
I honestly think this is a lot more possible than Yukinofags want to believe.
>>140770384
>people fall in love with people they interact with a lot
8man never saw Yukino as a romance partner and she isn't in love with him in ANOTHER which is a major difference.
>>140770420
I think it is likely, it might be ANOTHER is romance for the shippers and the main series as loner/friends end.
>>140770313
If I were a Yuifag I would be upset. It guarantee she loses in the main story which is what really matters.
But I'm an Irohafag so it's okay.
>>140770420
As a yukinofag, I don't really have a problem with ANOTHER. Let Yui have her happy ending. But if Yukino gets cucked in both series, Oregairu is fucking dead to me.
>>140770420
I think "Yukino end" is vague and can mean a lot of things.
It runs the gamut from a happy romance (for the two characters at least) to something a lot more painful.
>>140770472
I am a Yuifag and it gives me hope she wins the main series. It proves 8man has feelings for her on some level and it would not be weird for her to win.
>>140768617
Hayama can't love her, he has someone in his mind already. That person is...

>Yui end confirmed

>>140770459

Why? It's fucking obvious what this story is about now.
>>140769677 this quote basically spells it out.
>>140770522
The Yui end part is confirmed, the no HayaYuki part isn't.
>implying main won't be open end
>>140770246
Everyone knows Hachiman is a virgin, anon.
The pill is very effective when taken *regularly* 99.9%, it is women who are undisciplined and irregular in taking it that make the lower more commonly quoted stat. Our Yukino won't have that problem. In neighboring countries IUD can be implanted which is extremely effective also. So there is no reason Yukino and Hachiman can't enjoy the genuine sex with each other.
As aside Japan is very backwards about modern contraception, pill only legal 17 years ago and IUD still illegal though recommended by WHO and most gynecologists. Talk about men controlling women's bodies....
>>140770506
What would be the point of ANOTHER then?
>>140770612
WW is just dumb. Re-read >>140769754
>>140770583
>the Yui end part is confirmed
Where?
>>140770459
>she isn't in love with him in ANOTHER
The spoilers in this thread said
>Yukino gives up her feelings for Yui's sake
>>140770573
So 8man can travel between universes and get consequence free pussy from Yui and Yukino?
>>140770600
>Hachiman is a virgin
The fairer half of Chiba disagrees.
What if Yukinon "forgets" to take it?
>>140770506
Another Irohafag with sympathies for your girl here. I have to agree with him. It's not her feelings that hamper her, it's the setup. That is unless WW pulls off an absolute masterpiece of writing, in which case you guys have pretty much earned the right to gloat for eternity.
>>140770520
poor analysis. Haruno was the baby-sitter of Yukino and Hayama and the family are close business partners. That alone is the relationship of Haruno and Hayama. Hayama regrets losing any chance with Yukino in the past and is jealous of Yukino fancying and following and liking Hachiman in the present.
>>140770639
What about that is dumb? He is just being cheeky.
>>140770702
Most spoilers are fake at this point but that particular one has been mentioned more than a few times.
>When sensei turns on her vibrator while thinking of 8man
>>140770600
>Haruno replaces her pills with tic-tacs
>>140770612
To give us a fun little story to tide us over until September when he releases vol 11.5.
>>140770782
that scene was funny for how Hachiman's cynical view of how employees are treated resonates with her so hard. Really that's one of the jokes of OreGairu, that Hachiman keeps hitting nerves in her of past traumas she's had.
>>140770910
No, what's happening having sexual thoughts about 8man, she has turned on her vibrator, and now she can barely control herself.
Well, at least it is in my imagination based on that pic alon
>>140770868
I just don't see Yui winning in the main series. Did you read ANOTHER? Did you see how out of character people had to be for her to get her ending?
>>140771006
Yukino was reduced to less than a side character.
>>140771006
I was more making a joke about WW never releasing vol 12 than commenting on a Yui end.
I think she could get an end but it would involve losing Yukino and maybe something more. ANOTHER is just her perfect end. I give it a 1% shot if she wins ANOTHER and 25% if she doesn't.
>>140771124
Sorry, thought you were >>140770506
And yeah I just don't see it happening. The only reason ANOTHER exists is so every faggot can be happy their girl won. Irohafags will have to buy the VN though. Which is what ANOTHER should have been saved for to be honest
>>140771230
>so every faggot can be happy their girl won
>I only care about genuine things, I swear!
What a load of shit.
>>140771316
I think it's pretty obvious genuine means absolutely nothing at this point
Anyone remember that monologue about how loading a save point to change your decision won't result in anything different? Me neither.
I am setting aside my judgement on vol R until it gets translated. We know Yui won but stuff like "Yukino set her feelings aside for Yui" is pretty much 180 degrees from genuine, especially given vol 11.
How it gets to the end is going to matter a lot in how we judge the ending and also what, if anything, it is telling us about vol 12.
本物=getting in their pants
t.WW
>>140771418
You're talking about the VN's right?
>>140771418
What volume was that again? I want to read it so I can have a good laugh
>>140771404
>Yui winning some AU fan services means that genuine doesn't mean anything
What the fuck?
>>140771424
Why? You've read the first 6 volumes of ANOTHER. The characters are only the same in name only. Why would R be any different all of a sudden?
I don't get it, why are people getting competitive about who wins a spinoff? That shit is consolation prize tier at best.
Hell why do people care about who wins at all rather than the quality of the story?
>>140771549
Because it invalidates the entire story.
>>140771549
People disagree about what would make a "quality story"
>>140771514
Volume 8, chapter 1.
>>140771418
>Anyone remember that monologue about how loading a save point to change your decision won't result in anything different? Me neither.
It could mean that Yui always gets her romance end with 8man. Also that was a metaphor for 8man being a stubborn piece of shit that would manipulate things into his own world view. He has changed since then.
I just came here to say fuck you all and fuck you too watari.
I am Yuifag but I would rather have her lose fairly on main then have her win on another irrelevant fiction so that all can be pleased
>Yukinofags want Yui to win ANOTHER
>it will be music to our ears
>It doesn't matter in the least
Look at this thread. They were so full of shit. Yui won and they are upset.
>>140771636
>It could mean that Yui always gets her romance end with 8man.
Oh man. Now THAT would stir up a shitstorm.
>>140771549
Because whoever wins the spin off means they won't win in the main story
>the quality of the story?
>caring about the quality of Oregairu after Vol.9
>>140771755
I'm a Yuifag and I am upset as well. This is absolute bullshit.
>>140771549
>quality of the story
I feel like the series' high point was the end of volume 5 and volume 6. After that was more downs than ups.
>>140769393
Basically he said it was Gahama route.
>>140771774
I think who wins ANOTHER is going to win the main story. I am a Yuifag so take that with the grain of salt. I also don't think Yukino actually likes 8man but that is another debate.
>>140771796
It is just a side AU, don't take it personally.
>>140771755
I have to say there's been a lot of asspain all around.
Which is surprising because this was by far the most predicted and likely outcome to ANOTHER. I guess a lot of people were quietly hoping it would turn out differently.
>>140756643
Elaborate. 6/10.
>>140771862
>It is just a side AU, don't take it personally.
I don't like being patronized. This is exactly what Watari is doing with this cop out bullshit.
This is a good example of "death of the author" in play.
Should we read the main series with ANOTHER in mind, because it reveals some of the writer's thoughts about the characters? Or should we respect the author's wishes and treat them as totally separate?
Also, as someone has already pointed out, >>140771418 was blown the fuck out when the first VN came out- which 2 months before Volume 8 was even published. WW meta-retroactively undermined himself.
So "genuine" is basically Hachiman's version of "tfw no gf"?
>>140771869
Yeah, I am surprised too. It makes me thing that if the main series gets an unoffensive end there will still be a massive shitstrom.
>>140771929
For all we know it spells out that Yui end is inevitable.
This is obviously what WW meant by "an ending fans would accept and not accept".
>>140757183
Why are you so annoyed about it, Irohafag?
>>140771862
>I also don't think Yukino actually likes 8man but that is another debate
To say this meme now is delusional (after all the hints, symbolism and the character song, and Watari and the anime producer in an interview have said that from vol10/episode11 she realize that she likes him)
>>140771602
Are you calling into question the idea of an alternate ending to begin with, or the way that people are suggesting that ending happens?
>>140772185
All of it. The entire story means nothing more than: Waaahhh I want a girlfriend!
That's what it has been reduced to.
I still think the biggest takeaway between main story and ANOTHER isn't which girl wins (though they will likely be different in the two). It's that in ANOTHER the group stays together. Yui/Hachiman become a thing, Yukino accepts it and stays friends.
But in the main story they will separate. Probably Hachiman goes for Yukino and that drives Yui away. And maybe Hachiman x Yukino works out, maybe it doesn't. But there will be painful overtones regardless because Yui still matters to both, especially to Yukino. But when you choose the genuine, sometimes people get hurt. If it is made clear in "R" that Yukino pretends to not like 8man for Yui's sake, then that tells us one ending is genuine and one isn't.
But there's at least a tiny chance in vol 12 that Yukino will go for 8man and be the one who gets crushed. I think the odds are very low, but it's not totally inconceivable. In that case, the same outcome occurs, the group of three gets broken, only it's Yukino who goes her own way in the end. You still have one genuine ending vs one non-genuine, but it's just Yui in both cases.
>>140771965
>For all we know it spells out that Yui end is inevitable.
If Yui end is inevitable then why he have wrote another.
Sensei is the only girl that deserves to win. Especially since Komachi screwed her out of a VN win.
>>140771936
>>140772234
There's nothing whatsoever with alternate routes. If a story is meant to reflect reality then changing the external stimuli will, in fact, completely change the outcome. The romance subplot doesn't happen in a vacuum.

In vol 10 Komachi remarks that, by the words of the ancients, if she is with her brother on New Year's then she will be with him all year. Then they meet up with Yui and Yukino, do the shrine and all end up with "low luck" in the end. After that Yui leaves to be with her other friends and it's just Yukino and Hachiman leaving together. That was the foreshadowing WW talked about. That's what is going to happen in vol 12. Yui will go her own way and we'll get Yukino/Hachiman. But maybe only for one year before they too part ways.
In ANOTHER, Komachi isn't there and they all leave the shrine together on the same train. In particular Yui/Yukino do not separate (Yui goes to Yukino's to spend the night). That was foreshadowing the ANOTHER ending. In one story Yui/Yukino's bond is much stronger than in the other. Yukino will set her feelings aside for Yui because, even if she has a bit of a crush on 8man, she cares for Yui even more (as friends). But in the main story, her attachment to 8man is way higher than it is to Yui, although Yui is important too. She will cast Yui aside if she has to in order to go for what she wants.
>>140772342
>Especially since Komachi screwed her out of a VN win.
Wait what?
>>140772395
That's cute, but ANOTHER ignores all of the first 9 volumes and has the characters acting incredibly out of character. Did anyone ask for this? No. So we all had to sit here with our thumbs up our asses for an entire year, while Watari took a massive dump over the entire message of I want something genuine.
>>140771538
The fact that an AU exists makes whatever meaning genuine had non existent
>>140772554
>the fact that a comedy chibi version of Attack on Titan exists makes whatever meaning the horror scenes the main series had non existent
autist
>>140772470
When Sensei wins in the VN end Komachi refuses to let it happen and resets the universe
>>140772241
This makes a lot more sense than a harem-style omnibus. It's been foreshadowed for quite some time that the club will go their separate ways in the ending. Hayama as the example of non-genuineness has always acted with the purpose of artificially keeping his group together, 8man has consistently ended up becoming like Hayama (portrayed negatively in doing so) when the group's integrity comes into question. The most obvious conclusion is that the club will separate and 8man will learn to accept it without being bitter.
In that case ANOTHER would basically be the "Happy End" to the club's "True End", since them separating would be very likely to be bittersweet or even sad to some people.
>>140772179
I mostly thought it after vol 10 and was still at it for vol 11 but that character song sorta kills me. It isn't really a debate for me, just something I hope for.
I'm withholding judgement until 12. This is kind of no different from a VN route.
>>140772479
Watari did no such thing, ANOTHER isn't about the issues in main series. People with autism see something unexpected and stand there yelling nonsense syllables at it. That is why you are HERPing and DERPing
>>140772554
Not necessarily. Genuine just means being honest and unambiguous. It doesn't mean "things can only ever go one way and one way only".
>>140772618
A comedy spin off and an alternate ending to a series are two completely different things you fucking retard.
>Yui won in ANOTHER
>Irohasu date OVA
>Yukino win during volume twelve
Bravo Watarin.
Way to applease everyone. At least, Yomi had more guts then you ever will.
>>140772800
the characters are different in *all* of ANOTHER, not just the ending. It is a story about other people in another universe. It therefore is as relevant to main story as a chibi comedy.
>>140772812
This is what the VN is supposed to be for WW
>>140772681
I don't want 8man to loses his hard earned relationships. Even if the club splits up I want him to be a part of Yui's and Yukino's life even if it is a small way.
It would be sad for me to see the three breakup.
>>140772479
If that's the case then it's a (rather common) problem in the quality of writing of the spinoff itself, rather than the concept of an AU spinoff.
tl;dr if it's shit then it's shit because of the writing, not because it's a spinoff. That's the only point I was trying to make. I can't personally give an opinion on the writing of the spinoff since I don't intend to read it until the main story ends.
>the most unoffensive ending to a side series
>still an angry shitstorm
I hope vol 12 never comes I don't want to see something that awful happen here.
>>140772681
> The most obvious conclusion is that the club will separate and 8man will learn to accept it without being bitter.
Maybe. Although a lot of the foreshadowing of the Service Club's splitting could be another manifestation of Hachiman's bitter viewpoint. I can't shake Hayama's words at the end of vol 10 on this,
> Relationships won’t reset from moving up a year or going on to college.
Though in response to Hachiman's contrary pessimism he does say after that,
> That applies only to you, Hikigaya. I’m different from you.
So that last line could be foreshadowing as well. Ultimately Hachiman can't end the story as a loner because that is his expectation. If Yui and Yukino leave him, he still has to have the people he helped like Saika, Iroha, Kawasaki, and Zaimokuza.
But I think what will happen is, whether there is romance or not between Yukino/Hachiman, they will go separate ways in the end but still be in touch. The one who wins the contest will use it to get the contact info from the other.
>>140773011
He doesn't have a hard-earned relationship with Yui, and Yui still values her silly clique anyway, running off to be with it leaving Hachiman and Yukino alone to know each other better. Since Yukino and Hachiman have many similar interests and sync so well it is likely they'll have lifetime relationship if not romantic one at least. Yui will just be fond memory since she'll just accumulate more superficial friends in the future having no need for Yukino or Hachiman
>>140773073
The mere existence of ANOTHER, regardless of how shittily it is written, serves to invalidate the main series. Don't write a fucking story with "genuine" as a central theme, if you're going to cop out at the very last second. That is the most disingenuous thing you can do.
>>140773011
8man's relationships are at their best when he isn't trying to "earn" anything. That's the issue.
Their strugges have been almost exclusively self-inflicted.
>>140773227
absurd, that's like saying the game or the licensed immodest body pillows invalidates the main story. ANOTHER is just another side entertainment, but you autists are treating it like some new dead sea scroll was found.
>>140773172
ANOTHER
>Yui is bonkers for 8man
>Yukino has a slight crush
Main Series
>Yui is really bonkers for 8man
>Yukino likes him a lot
Basically Yukino's level of affection for 8man changes just as his does for her.
>>140773227
>serves to invalidate the main series
What the fuck man. There are so many LNs/mange spinoffs of things it is amazing that someone can get this bothered by it. If the theme is obeyed in the main series ANOTHER does nothing. It doesn't change a goddamn thing.
>>140773227
For the 94353456th time, 'genuine' does not mean it can only go one way and one way only.
All that it means is being honest and unambiguous with your feelings.
>>140757939
Fuck off.
>>140773333
the "genuine" in Hachiman's request was deep unambiguous understanding of another. Nothing to do with one's internal feelings but of dealing with another person
8man wont be alone. Yui would only leave him under a very specific set of circumstances.
>>140773484
Is "walking in on 8man nutting inside Yukino on the club room table" one of those circumstances? Because that's what's coming.
>>140773317
Spin offs for a series like Saekano is expected because its a harem all about the girls. Apparently so is Oregairu
>On a lark, WW writes something that could easily pass as fan-fiction of his own series.
>2ch and the gaijin go bananas
>BD sales increase
It's all part of his master plan of being wildly inconsistent and stumbling into success as an author.
>>140773591
Nips are pissed about this?
>>140772438
There's actually another distinction between the end of the shrine visits between the 2 universes. In ANOTHER, we see the three of them actually spending the entire day together. But in the main series, 8man and Yukino are only really together while going home early, right after the just shrine visit. This scene also has Yukino fumbling with directions(tying in with her own "lack of direction" problem) and some hints about her strained family relations. It had 8man going on the train with Yukino and both of them actually separating and spending most their day alone, unlike ANOTHER which had Yui, Yukino, and 8man all spending the entire day together.
I'm obviously not Watari, but if this is actually supposed to mean something, I'd take a wild guess that the "word of the ancients" suggests that 8man will help Yukino a final time to find her own self/direction, but they won't really end up together and end up going into different directions. It'd also tie in with the canon fortunes, where we see Yui downgrading her excellent luck(as in, we already saw her sinking her chances) but haven't seen whatever happens on Yukino's end that downgrades her good luck while also simultaneously raising Yui's by bringing them both to small luck.
>>140773713
>they won't really end up together and end up going into different directions
I don't care if this sounds petty, if Yui gets an end and Yukino doesn't this series is fucking dead to me.
>>140773713
> they won't really end up together and end up going into different directions
Certainly possible. That's why I mentioned that Komachi's words only suggest that they'll be together for that year. They could separate and go their own ways in the end.
>>140773819
It's going to be a Yukino end of some sort. It definitely won't be an exact duplicate of ANOTHER except with Yukino substituted for Yui.
There is going to be some bitter overtones to the main ending. It could come merely from Yui leaving them, or it could be caused by any of the other myriad red flags that exist for a successful and happy Yukino romance.
>>140773603
What Doujin?
Any scans out yet? Like to see some confirmation on these spoilers other than a picture of the volume
>>140773898
I would guess mutual Hachiman and Yukino confession, but Yukino having maturity to go pursue future that is best for her by studying sciences (maybe medicine by couple of hints) abroad. Hachiman goes in direction of writer. This is both sweet and bitter, and leaves some possibilities open for their being together years later.
>>140773694
Not really.
Someone posted fake spoilers that Miura is friends with Yukino in ANOTHER and wants to help repair Yukino's and Hayam's relationship. If true that means that HayaYuki is around the corner.
>>140774006
>an open ending
Please no. Anything but that
>>140774052
Hayama and Yukino will never happen. This ship only exists to troll yukinofags.
>>140773147
8man recognizes the possibility of the club splitting apart and is fearful of it, yes. That fear is a detrimental character trait of his that is arguably the root for most of his non-genuine actions, yes. However just because a fear is detrimental to one's well-being doesn't automatically mean it's unfounded: People will very often fear things that are necessary.
8man needs to face his fear of the club splitting apart either way, however that fear actually coming to fruition will give his act authenticity. In my opinion, having the fear be "over nothing" detriments the story: It wrongfully sends the message that the fear (and possibly fear itself in general) is unfounded. Yui and Yukino also seem to follow this pattern, albeit with the object of their insecurities being different, which is why I don't think it's very likely at all for any of them to end up in a romantic relationship.
>>140773227
It's a different story in a different universe, there's no reason for one's themes to apply to another whatsoever. Especially if the established canon was completely ignored as people are saying.
>>140774006
would add the request likely has something to do with her leaving soon, Yuki-mom probably thinks school and club aren't the best for her reaching her full potential since Yukino declared changing to liberal arts track. In the story it's February and school year almost over in mid March. Then spring break as last week of march and first of April, giving small window of time for Hachiman or Yukino to deal with feelings at some level before they part.
>>140774156
The main series isn't about romance. I hate to say it but ANOTHER was a romance end and romance is what Yui is all about. Yukino isn't all about romance, romance is a very small part of what Yukino wants. It is fitting for there to be a bittersweet ending for them since their relationship has always been like that.
>>140774214
Miura will help them reconcile. She is a good girl who will help a friend.
>>140773819
Yukino didn't get the poll numbers to win a consolation spinoff.
>Yuifags get a sweet apple for an end
>Yukinofags will get a bitter melon for an end
This is so perfect. Yukinofags will be hurt and everyone else will enjoy this story.
Yukino going abroad by the time the main series ends. Bittersweet ending. 8man ends with Yui though
>>140774275
I just really hate open endings. Doesn't help that they are overused as fuck
>The main series isn't about romance
Then what is it about? Just curious what you've taken from it
>>140774156
but what I was envisioning isn't "open" in that Yukino and Hachiman will have a brief romantic time together, though over time it may be a "5 cm per second" type of thing....
>>140774219
> In my opinion, having the fear be "over nothing" detriments the story
I feel it's the other way around. Hachiman has progressed a long ways in the story, but he still has to learn that pursuing what he wants, being genuine, can lead to positive outcomes.
If he goes through all this, only to be left with nothing in the end, what is the lesson for him? That no matter what or how hard he tries it will all end up the same? Or he has learned that "maybe" it will be "different" in the future?
Nah, he can't be alone. It might not be everything he wishes for, but at least one of the girls, probably Yukino won't disappear from his life. There won't be a final and total breaking of ALL the service club bonds.
>>140774415
Not him but I've always felt like Yahari is more of a coming-of-age story than a romance, hence being "wrong".
>>140774415
Romance is a part of it but not the main part. It is about human relationships and 8man dealing with his own demons. Yui's story was mostly romance but Yukino's story has very little to do with it. Sure Yukino might like 8man but that will be short lived.
The story will stay true to itself.
So wait, can someone summarise what this means for yukino fags? I reeeaaally don't want yui to win. I'd literally prefer anyone (especially yukino)
>>140774525
Hah, not anymore.
>>140774382
If Yukino doesn't win, redditors are going to send the helium price skyrocketing.
>>140774572
It means the odds of a Yukino end, whatever that signifies, is pretty high in the main story.
>>140774572
Yui won in another
Yukino might win in main series but it sure aint going to be a love dovey hold hands sort situation. Most likely scenario is genuine friendship with each char going their own directions
>>140774572
Likely Yukino end, maybe loner end, not likely Yui end in main series
>>140774646
If it's just friendship, then there's no reason for Yui to go her own way.
More likely it's genuine romance, but the romance part is short-lived.
>>140774613
Best girl always and forever.
>>140774636
>>140774646
>>140774660
Excellent! When will this volume be translated, do you think?
And Yukino better win, I've invested too much of my time for her to not win.
>>140774572
Yui wins ther AU and that puts her way ahead of Yukino in the 8man bowl.
One thing I find weird is 4chan thinks of more depressing ends than the nip sites I visit.
So wait, people are claiming Watari wrote ANOTHER because yuifags are crazy in Japan. Are yukinofags not just as crazy? Cause I don't think they'd be happy about this bittersweet non sense
>>140774690
You mean "way ahead of Yukino in the consolation bowl".
YUIFAGS REJOICE SHE WON
>>140774690
>Yui wins ther AU and that puts her way ahead of Yukino in the 8man bowl
How does it at all put her ahead? Did you actually read ANOTHER? Her ending happened in an alternate universe for a reason
>>140774717
Ends are equal. Just because one is overly sweet and one is bittersweet that doesn't mean both didn't get their own end.
>>140774530
>might like 8man but that will be short lived
If you have read the novel, read Watarin and the anime producer interview and Yukino character song it's clear that she loves him and is not a short lived thing.
I don't think 8man after all the developement hints and symbolism spread around will end alone.
>>140774717
Most likely the ending will be more "sweet" than "bitter". There will be sadness because Yui leaves and perhaps some ambiguity about the future. Ambiguity that Yukino/8man won't be worried about because they're kids.
People assume Yukino going abroad, but we don't know that for sure. Even if she is pressured to go abroad, is it something she really wants for herself, now that she's determined to reach for her future? Her class isn't just for people going abroad, but also for who have gone abroad before.
I don't get the AU thing.
They're just two routes, ones for each girl. Watari is a coward.
>>140774832
>Watari is a coward
That's kind of the problem people are having with this turn of events.
>>140774777
In her songs Yukino is very concerned about an end with him but will take a future with him.
>>140774763
>>140774724
I meant to say behind. I was thinking Yukino is way ahead and then changed my thought while typing.
The thing I am more interested in is why people here think of way more depressing endings than nips.
>>140774776
As a yukinofag, no they are not the same thing. If the main series ends on some bullshit "maybe they'll be together in the future?" Watari can go fuck himself.
>>140774871
> The thing I am more interested in is why people here think of way more depressing endings than nips.
It's what we do. We pile on. What are the elevens prophesying?
>>140774717
>>140774819
Part of the story is about 8man finding a relationship worth preserving so I likely think he'll end up in someway with Yukino. Likely the bittersweet part will be Yui on suicidewatch
>>140774871
>The thing I am more interested in is why people here think of way more depressing endings than nips
It is not going to end on a depressing note. The whole series has been bittersweet up to this point. Watari will give us our happy ending.
>>140774938
That this strongly implies a Yukino end but that is maybe too simple, also Yui's end is too clean so it might suggest a dirty main series end. They expect a trick but not soul crushing shit like here. Their bittersweet is our sweet, our bittersweet is their bitter.
>>140774969
That's the happiest realistic outcome for Yukino/Hachiman as a couple by this point.
To have a truly satisfying Yukino/Hachiman romance will require a lot of work. It would have to utterly dominate vol 12. And it may well do so. Yukino could confess to Hachiman very early in vol 12, Yui makes her exit and is scarcely seen again, then the entire rest of the book is dealing with the future and Yukino's family.
>>140754940
Where's mah Saika end
Or Sensei
>>140774871
>The thing I am more interested in is why people here think of way more depressing endings than nips.
It seems like a lot of people here are reading "machigatteiru" and hoping that the series will actively avoid being a love comedy. I don't know if that's just us having different values from the japs, but they apparently don't have as much of a problem with seeing a little romance in their bildungsroman.
>>140774903
Now now, a car is a car and a lunch is a lunch. We both have one so it is okay.
>>140775047
Well here you have a lot of people who have missed the point of the entire series and are still emotionally invested in Hachiman's pathetic loner facade from the early volumes.
>>140775129
Admit it, it would be fresh if we got that sort of ending. He has done so many things wrong he is more than capable of making Yui and Yukino disown him.
>>140775047
Japs expect a friends end to a degree too.
At this point, I don't really care who wins the 8bowl, as long as there is a happy ending for everyone, then I'll be happy, because this is the first show, that I really wanted for all characters to have a happy ending.
>>140775193
> it would be fresh if we got that sort of ending
It would be stupid. What matters isn't trying to come up with some totally original and unique ending, but an ending that is in keeping with the tone and message of the series. Hachiman shed the loner facade long ago. He is moving out of it. Too go back to it would be a betrayal of the plot.
>>140774903
Honestly I wouldn't have had a problem with a bittersweet ending at first. But now that ANOTHER exists and Yui gets a happy ending, I'll feel cheated if Yukino doesn't get one too.
>>140775193
>Admit it, it would be fresh if we got that sort of ending. He has done so many things wrong he is more than capable of making Yui and Yukino disown him.
No, not really. That would be bizarrely out of character. You might as well have an ending where Yukino gets hit by a fucking bus and dies, if you just want to ruin 8man's life deus ex machina.
>>140775285
but OreGairu is the story of two loners. Yukino has to advance too
>>140775285
I am saying fresh, not good. I would be bummed but I think I would enjoy it a few years down the road. That being said pie end still makes me want to kill something.
>>140775367
You don't think 8man could do something so idiotic and self destructive that Yui and Yukino would abandon him?
>>140775454
Into Pan-san's arms. She should go find a real life Pan-san.
>>140775454
I think her final turning point was at the very end of vol 11 and in vol 12 we're about to see it.
>>140773953
No idea bro. I just post this one to piss off the obvious Irohafag falseflaggers and trolls.
>>140775488
> You don't think 8man could do something so idiotic and self destructive that Yui and Yukino would abandon him?
Not at this point. They would never let him get away with it.
>>140775320
Don't worry, no one has finished ANOTHER. The last sentances is with Yui walking in on Yukinon cleaning Hikki's lap with her mouth.
>>140775531
Their duet implies they would see through his lies and deal with them. So you are probably right.
>>140774507
>but he still has to learn that pursuing what he wants, being genuine, can lead to positive outcomes.
8man already has positive outcomes in the form of his experiences with the club, the biggest circle of friends out of anyone in the club, and his relationship with Komachi (which he has had all along but takes for granted). It would be initially painful but they'd quickly find themselves better off for it, and probably even reunite eventually (as shown by 8man becoming friends with Orimoto), but the story would be finished by that point.
It's not just a matter of good or bad things happening, the key message is getting through a period of bad things to get to the good. It's meant to parallel Yui who had spend the entire series being shit at cooking before eventually becoming able to do it properly, 8man just wouldn't even try in the beginning, and later on was too scared to progress.
>>140774382
More like Yuifags get sugar coated apple they get to lick while Yukinofags get the grapes the matter how bitter they are.
>>140775677
But the point of sour grapes is that they aren't really sour, you just don't get to have them, so you shit-talk the grapes.
>>140775742
The point is the grapes are all that matterto 8manit doesn't matter how sour they could be they're what he truly wants, nothing else matters to him.
>>140775650
> 8man already has positive outcomes in the form of his experiences with the club
That's not really a positive or negative outcome. The future is what matters.
> the biggest circle of friends out of anyone in the club
That is a good point. But it only matters if WW decides to play that up in vol 12, instead of leaving them in the background.
I don't see there's any way Hachiman could completely, utterly separate himself from Yukino and Yui both and have the story be "happy" in any sense of the word. He might not be banging either of them, but he'll still end the series with Yukino's number (which he still doesn't have right now) and know he can call her at any time.
It's more the loner implications of what you're suggesting that I have a problem with. He can't end the story as it began with only his state of mind supposedly changed. That would represent a failure.
And there's no reason for them to go separate ways and never see each other (or maybe see other after some unnecessary gap in time far in the future). It's not olden days where you could only write letters. Even if they're on other sides of the world that doesn't mean very much.
>>140774572
8man is more likely to end up with Saki in the main story than anyone from the club.
>>140775836
Comical. You side-fags really love to cling desperately to every scrap.
>>140775816
In ANOTHER Yui's sweet and easy self was enough for him.
>>140775884
Which is exactly why genuine means nothing anymore.
>>140775884
An ANOTHER's 8man couldn't care any less about the truth, he was fine with nothing but lies until the end.
Hell starting the rumors with Yui was nothing more than a lie to distract the school.
>>140775836
There is only one girl that Hachiman constantly wonders about, worries about, takes action for, defends, and has had a very long uphill climb in building a relationship. It isn't any side girl and it's not Yui. The main story is obviously building to something between Hachiman and her
I just want Volume 12 to come out so I can stop reading these depressing theorys and get my sweet sweet Yukinox8man canon.
>>140775954
Yes friendship. Yukino doesn't love him. 8man doesn't love her.
>>140775985
Don't worry, they will be sweet friends while 8man pounds Saika's boipussy. Yukino will never let him have MAX COFFEE or Saika so she can't be his. Yui will an hero though.

Yui has been waiting for his 8 for months but would give it to Saika in a heartbeat if offered. He doesn't like girl pussy.

>She denied him friendship.
And even still that made his heart go doki doki.
Besides I was talking about what happened after the concert with her blushing and ranting as soon as he compliments her.

Volume 6 truly was the best volume.
>>140776330
>It is extremely hard to make the case she doesn't like him if you include vol the second part of vol 9, 10, 11, side material, and vol 7. I can't do that.
He is literally admitting he's baiting now

Yukino's story = Yukino's story
(Parts that show Yukino likes him)(Yukino's desires and motivations)(Parts that don't show Yukino likes him) = Yukino's story
Factor out (Parts that show Yukino likes him)
(Yukino's desires and motivations)(Parts that don't show Yukino likes him) = Yukino's story
>>140776417
She was just embarrassed and isn't used to friendship compliments. She was clinging to him because he makes her feel safe.
>>140776615
So what you're saying is Yukino likes him? Glad we can agree on that.
>>140776671
No, I am saying that we still have Yukino's story without romance.
Reminder that Yuckyno YukinoSHITa is objectively the worst girl.
Victory is near fellow Yukinofags
>>140776689
Sorry Anon but Yukino's romance factors in as much as it does for 8man.
It's something they both need to overcome, getting rejected won't help either of them in the story.
We already have the story of loner whose romance was crushed and their becoming bitter and alienated. Poor side girl Saki is the "loners end" in OreGairu
>>140776782
But Yui won today's battle.
>>140776845
It won't hurt either if they mature and develop. They are probably best off dating behind Yui's back.
>>140776689
Except the story isn't over yet. Her feelings for the 8 could and most likely will become a part in her overcoming her problems. I don't understand why Yuifags still feel the need to do these mental gymnastics because they're so threatened by Yukino, even after they got their fairy tale ending.
>>140776782
>worst girl wins
It can't be helped.
Yuifags sure are sore winners.
>>140776989
I am not a Yui supporter. I like her think she should be 8man's girl in all universes but this is a different matter.
We don't know if she wants to take a step to the future with MAX COFFEE man.

"As expected, my teen romcom is wrong"
Pyrrhic victory, Yukino will confess and mutual love acknowledged, but they won't be able to be together. Yukino's family won't stand for that, they'll pack her off to prepare for the future they want for her. It won't include commoner like Hachiman who doesn't even have a life direction picked yet. Yukino will wistfully look back on the one time she was in love, even as she dutifully fulfils obligations to one day be married in alliance for power and money.

Any time someone starts their premise with a blatant misunderstanding of the series title, everything they say can be discarded.
>>140777126
Prepare to have you incorrect mental model of OreGairu burned to the ground in vol. 12
>>140777169
Right back at ya slick

>That's not really a positive or negative outcome. The future is what matters.
"The journey is the true reward."
>That is a good point. But it only matters if WW decides to play that up in vol 12, instead of leaving them in the background.
He's already formed a coalition of secondary characters to help him during the stuco arc, which was arguably the biggest crisis the club has faced. An actual loner end is completely out the window at this point.
I don't think the club is just going to leave and forget about eachother either. They're going to separate initially and probably even limit contact as their resolutions (8man's fear, Yukino's independence, Yui's self-esteem/motivation) require doing so, but there's nothing stopping them from getting back together once those resolutions have been met, and they have every motivation to do so. As I mentioned, Watari even set precedent for it with Orimoto. It might even take place before they even graduate, since the chronological pace of this series is quite slow.
I was probably unclear in saying that I think the club will split and it'll be a bittersweet end for the sake of 8man's growth. What I mean is that the final climax of the story will be the club splitting apart, during which a lot of hurt will go around (8man's other relationships will play a key role here, as they usually do during his crises), but they'll eventually recover for a positive conclusion/epilogue. Romantic prospects pretty much go out the window simply for the fact that their issues keep it from being possible in the present, and the story will already be over once those issues are resolved. This is likely the biggest reason why Yui's AU spinoff has to completely change the characters and continuity to even make romance possible in the first place.

>Yukino will be sent abroad for her senior year
>8mna will spend his senior year studying so he can leave Chiba behind and go abroad to see Yukino
Now that Yui won ANOTHER
I can sit back and relax since I know Iroha's going to win in the mainline
>>140777126
So what does the series title mean?
"First girls don't win"? Or does it have something to do with 8man's own perception?
