Chris best daughter
Previous Thread: >>13738460
So what was the point of Hibiki's dad? I finished GX. Is it supposed to be some parallel to Carol's no dad?
>>13743272
>So what was the point of Hibiki's dad?
To make everyone mad. Now shut up and post more Chris.
>>13743272
From a story-telling perspective, I think that was supposed to be the intent. Whether it succeeded or not...that's another story altogether.
So how are her fanboys going to react when Chris gets a girlfriend in S4?
>>13743272
Kaneko's dad died I think. So he wanted us to make us hate our fathers or something or a father figure.
Blame Hibiki for being retard.
>>13743272
Carol has dad issues, so Hibiki goes through the same thing to tie their plots together.
They just forgot to actually take the time to show topdad turning into less of a shit, so everybody hates him.
He literally just goes "WHEN YOU'RE ABOUT TO DIE YOU REALLY UNDERSTAND WHAT'S IMPORTANT" (with no accompanying revelation flashback to even try and sell that) and does a total 180, it's shockingly lazy.
>>13743282
My dad knows Kaneko. He said that wont happen.
>>13743278
>>13743282
We'll continue to laugh at the delusional yurifags.
>>13743282
What if the opposite happens and one of the gears that isnt Chris likes a boy?
>>13743272
Mostly likely he was original supposed to just stay a piece of shit and Hibiki actually learning something. As for Carols dad his focus was clearly a dropped plot point, I suspect we were initially supposed to see more of Carols past.
Basically the whole thing is a huge mess but no they are not parallels. Maybe that's what they were trying to attempt but it didn't even come close.
>>13743282
Chris is the biggest waifufag money magnet, I think Kaneko knows not to fuck that up.
nth for plowing Bikki's bootyhole
Is Miku's family still faceless? I bet if her dad is alive, she has daddy issues too.
![[H&D] Senki Zesshou Symphogear GX - 05 (1280x720 x264 AAC) [FAB7D6D7].mkv_snapshot_19.15_[2015.08.17_17.06.10].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/qKFo6mQ.jpg "[H&D] Senki Zesshou Symphogear GX - 05 (1280x720 x264 AAC) [FAB7D6D7].mkv_snapshot_19.15_[2015.08.17_17.06.10].jpg")
Friendly reminder when discussing Topdad that he literally did not apologize to Hibiki once. He didn't even say he was sorry for making Hibiki foot the bill on that meal. I know some of you might have blocked it from your psyche.
>>13743300
The series would end
>>13743304
She doesn't sell the most
>>13743301
Thank fuck FIS are war orphans so they can't drag out the daddy issues for another season
>>13743282
Chris as two girlfriends already.
>>13743310
>The series would end
Depends who it is. And I dont think that would do as much damage as topdad.
>>13743272
>So what was the point of Hibiki's dad?
So the generals won't be just pic dumps and discussions about literally anything else.
>>13743321
Brutal.
>>13743318
HibiMiku needs to go home.
>>13743319
Any of the Gear users liking a guy would ruin that character in the eyes of her fans. Let it be someone like Tsubasa and kill the series. It wouldn't even make sense for any of them
>>13743310
She doesnt sell the most CDs yes. That's nana of course but her character is the most popular in terms of fanart and merch.
>>13743309
I bring it up every time someone asks why he was shit.
>>13743310
You sound like an angry yurifag.
>>13743324
But they are at home there
>>13743330

It's like I'm really on /a/
>>13743331
They obviously snuck into Chris' home which is not what she meant.
>>13743318
>miku
>sharing Hibiki
You'd need a fucking crowbar to break Miku's leglock on Hibiki when Hibiki sticks her dick in Miku.
>>13743328
>Any of the Gear users liking a guy would ruin that character in the eyes of her fans.
How so?
>It wouldn't even make sense for any of them
Teenagers, hormones. What doesnt make sense? Though I can never ever see Tsubasa ever doing something sexual.
>>13743338
But we've established Miku is the one with the penis.
>>13743329
The question is how much that sells and would putting her with a girl even ruin that? Guys don't see girls in anime as a threat.
>>13743344
It's been split opinion for a while m8. Miku is just getting more attention recently.
>>13743344
Nah, Hibiki is the super sub husband.
>>13743344
>But we've established
Nothing has been established, it's preferable, but it's just one of those subjective things.
>>13743342
>How so?
Purityfags? Every Gear outside of possibly Chris is linked to another girl with even the staff shipping them.
>Teenagers, hormones. What doesnt make sense? Though I can never ever see Tsubasa ever doing something sexual.
It doesn't make sense because they're all linked to girls and haven't shown any interest in any of the male characters on the show. It wouldn't make any sense because the staff ships the girls together so suddenly introducing a male character would go against that.
Carol and Shirabe duet when?
>>13743357
I didnt know staff shipping mattered, Sorry.
>>13743372
Since when has it?
>>13743377
Since that guy said it twice I guess it's a big deal.
>>13743372
Why wouldn't the opinions of the people who voice the characters and make the show matter? The fuck are you saying?
This sounds like a case of people wanting a male to show up so they can self insert. Should he be called Yuuta or Yuu? What would his gear be? Would Miku be okay with sharing Hibiki?
>>13743370
fuck that game
>>13743301
Why do you suspect he was supposed to stay a piece of shit?
>>13743357
Not him but it's kind of a stretch to say Chris, Maria, Tsubasa are linked to another girl the way Hibiki or DMJii is after GX. And they explicitly make all the males middle aged in this anime, not that I think it should change.
>>13743372
It doesn't affect shit.
>>13743382
Hey, all I did was respond to your statement that Chris would get a girlfriend in S4 with something else. Stop projecting.
>>13743383
>someone, somewhere actually thought Persona 4: The Musical, featuring the Fire Emblem Pantheon from the Fire May Cry Series would be more successful than a game of chess using demons or a jrpg using pegasus knights set in tokyo
>>13743382
Jesus Christ, chill out.
>>13743301
It's not a parallel, they were tied together in ep 2 when Carol said that she inherited the task of destroying the world from her father and Hibiki gloomily says that her father didn't leave her anything. Then later as you I'm sure can recall with anger, Hibiki's dad tells her to remember the magic words he taught her, heiki hecchara and Carol shows up taunting Hibiki about her father's inheritance. The way that this was set up in episode 2 makes me think that he wasn't supposed to remain a piece of shit but god knows the ending we got was a mess.
Incidentally immediately afterwards carol trots out her magic word--rululira--but I dunno what to say about that. A little parallel if you want it?
Come to think of it the parallel might be that way back in the G keyword about Hibiki's dad, the persecution of the concert survivors and therefore Hibiki's family, is described as reaching a point that it was like a medieval witch hunt.
So both their families were unfairly treated but where it went from there was quite different for the two of them. Anyways does it have to be parallels? Overall its thematic even if the related conclusion to it was really poorly handled.
>>13743333
Hit the nail on the head, didn't I.
>>13743402
It's like I'm really on /a/
>>13743393
With an unrealistic suggestion
>>13743400

Should of rubbed it in more.
>>13743383
At least the j-pop is good.
>>13743407
>Boys ruin shows
>Any male character is just for self insertion

Not only are you a yurifag, but you're actually the worst kind. This isn't /u/, but feel free to go back there.
>>13743407
>With an unrealistic suggestion
I never said they'd slobber over cock and it being a whole development issue. Calm the fuck down yurifag.
>>13743400
Reminder to anyone that knows moon, that Kaneko actually tried tying things together by using the verb 託す when topdad threw the pendant to Hbiki. I'm fucking blown away by how seriously he takes that god-awful plot.
>>13743412
waiting on a full version of:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MTl8gDQiKiE
>>13743422
I'm legitimately waiting on full versions of Nanjo and Inori's songs. Also the one by the bishie whose name I can't remember.
>>13743421
Topdad just heard a magical girl smack-talking Hibiki about what she's inherited from her father
Yeah if he did it out of the blue it'd be awkward.
>>13743421
Cant wait to see season 4.
I do wonder if it needs a new cast or a reboot.
I'm really down on all the characters. Get a new cast but keep the VAs.
>>13743430
It doesn't matter. To try to tie the weight of a life-long mission to something topdad gave her, then realize he literally gave her nothing but a catchphrase she used to deny reality, only to then physically give her an object that she needs in that one moment because of retarded plot contrivances is absolutely abysmal writing.
>>13743433
The characters are literally the only good thing left about the series. What they need is a good conflict, and no more character development outside of making friends (without a heaping serving of angst) and Hibiki learning to face reality.
>>13743445
>The characters are literally the only good thing left about the series
I could literally do without Maria, DMjii in the main cast. They're nice for occasional appearances but they suck.
I want to strangle Hibiki after GX. Why does she need to face reality when Kaneko is writing it so her goals come true?
>>13743318
But that's forbidden love!
>>13743433
Why don't you just watch other anime if you want a new cast? It's not like Symphogear's story or animation is anything special anyway. If they change the cast but keep the VAs then might as well they make a new anime altogether.
>>13743445
>To try to tie the weight of a life-long mission to something topdad gave her, then realize he literally gave her nothing but a catchphrase she used to deny reality
Carol's life-long mission was denying reality.
>>13743456
Good thing you don't run the show here, since FIS is amazing.
>>13743415
Now you're projecting. No one said boys ruin shows. They ruin shows that shove them in for no reason other than self insertion. All the girls are shipped by the people who make the show and the fanbase so don't get upset your waifu is shipped with girls. Go to another franchise for male characters. Infinite Stratos is missing a fanbase.
What subtle change would you make to S4? Nothing related to plot or character development, just something small but noticable. I'd go andgive Nehushtan's visor to Ichaival
>>13743456
I liked Maria a lot in the first half of GX when she was developing naturally and they weren't trying too hard with her characterization and development. She fell right into her niche, and then they took it away. You're dead on with DMJii being kind of useless and Hibiki being insufferable after GX, though. That said, Chris, Tsubasa, Miku, Genjuro, Oogawa, the anime janai trio, and all the other supporting cast are great, and if they fix Hibiki, Maria and give DMJii a purpose the cast could really shine.
>>13743462
But her dad gave her a real mission, and a noble one at that. Yahrnam hunter papa did nothing wrong, it's not his fault his daughter was a shit. I really feel like they were going to do something more with him after those first couple of flashbacks. Shame we got what we got.
>>13743482
It kinda had it the first time she tried to use Red Hot Blaze
>>13743471
You couldn't be more disgusting yurifag if you tried. Chris is shipped with girls? Take your goggles off; they've cut off so much blood that you've actually become brain-dead.
>>13743471
You're the one who was quick to scream self-insertion.
>>13743494
Chris was shipped with Tsubasa before GX you moron.
>>13743498
No she wasn't you idiot. They always had a senpai-kouhai relationship. Only idiots with their goggles on as tight as you think they were romantic.
Crack-kun shipped Chris and Tsubasa. Let that sink in. You're literally as stupid and delusional as Crack-kun.
>>13743505
Great, now you've summoned him, I hope you're happy
>>13743511
He killed himself after the docking scene. There's nothing left to fear.
>>13743505
>No she wasn't you idiot. They always had a senpai-kouhai relationship.
This is factually wrong. The show has always treated them as equals.
>>13743517
>factually wrong
>Chris literally refers to her as senpai
>factually wrong
Sorry, I didn't know you were a master of the nuances of Japanese culture and could diagnose relationships that well.
>>13743517
>>13743519
Chris and Tsubasa's relationship developed from enemies, to senpai/kouhai, and to what could be considered as equals in episode 6 of GX. It developed.
>>13743528
>all relationship developments are inherently romantic
I know that most shipperfags think this way but it's not correct.
>>13743528
Tsubasa has been in SONG longer than Chris has and graduated ahead of her. Tsubasa will always be her senpai. That's how it works. Senpai-kouhai doesn't mean master-servant, and it's not based on how much respect people have for you or how good you are at your job either.
>>13743536
Where do you see that in his post?
>>13743536
>>all relationship developments are inherently romantic
Where did I say that?
>>13743541
"Considered" isn't definitive. You can think of them as being equals, even though technically they're still senpai/kouhai.
>>13743536
Now he's fucking arguing with the wall.
Look at this inbred shit.
>>13743551
>>13743552
I'm not even the original starter but the argument was:
>Tsubasa and Chris were shipped in the show
>They were treated as senpai-kohai, not romantic
>Yeah, they became closer, it's romantic
If they pull another topdad in season 4, I cant say I would want this series to continue. It's had a decent run.
Where can they fucking go? I mean, noise are the reason that the symphogears exist because they are the only ones who can beat them. And Noise sucks. I'd love more anime original nana projects like symphogear and cross ange.
But GX got me so mad.
>>13743519
>Chris literally refers to her as senpai
Only later. WAY later. Like, "it was a dramatic point at the end of G for their character development" later.
>>13743557
No one said they were shipped in the show. They were shipped by the fanbase
>>13743557
The way I'm seeing it
>Tsubasa and Chris were shipped
>They were senpai-kouhai, not romantic
>no, they developed into equals, not just senpai-kouhai
>>13743557
I just wanted to put in my two cents, nothing to misinterpret about it.
>>13743567
This is accurate
>>13743552
>"Considered" isn't definitive.
Yes it is. Stop pretending like you have any idea how it works so you can insist your perceived understanding of senpai-kouhai is the correct one.
>>13743563
Yes, because she was ready to let Tsubasa into her life, and the relationship they had meant that when they got close, Chris could call her senpai and rely on her like one. A lot of Chris's development in G was learning to trust Tsubasa and furthering that relationship. That's why Chris trying to become a senpai and guide other people made sense logically in GX, but was executed so horrifically that people hated the end result.
>>13743572
Dog Days season 3 was shit too. What the fuck.
Maybe anime originals with Nana should never go past two seasons. Cross Ange was two cour so it's sort of equivalent.
>>13743575
>Yes, because she was ready to let Tsubasa into her life, and the relationship they had meant that when they got close, Chris could call her senpai and rely on her like one.
Yeah. The show always treated them as equals since Chris's first appearance, and her moment of weakness at the end of G is the only time Chris stooped and admitted to stooping lower than Tsubasa.
The only times they have anything close to the relationship of senpai/kouhai are a few moments at the end of G and the first episode of GX. Then GX episode 6 openly made them equal again.
>>13743580
Explain StrikerS.
I mean yeah it wasn't great but it wasn't bad. The last few episodes are completely worth it and include best moment from best girl.
>>13743580
I liked StrikerS well enough.
>>13743582
You do realize that senpai/kouhai doesn't mean one is worse than the other at anything right? It's literally just Tsubasa is older than her and has also been at SONG longer, you're attributing significance to it that's not even there and turning it into a huge deal for no reason.
>>13743583
>>13743585
Wait hurp technically a spin off of a VN even if it bears little resemblance at this point.
>>13743575
>Yes it is. Stop pretending like you have any idea how it works so you can insist your perceived understanding of senpai-kouhai is the correct one.
Let me fix my mistake here. "Could be" considered.
>>13743582
>The show always treated them as equals
>made them equal again.
Good fucking lord, how can you misunderstand what a senpai-kouhai relationship is this much? Could you at least pretend to talk to a Japanese person instead of getting your understanding of their cultural norms entirely from anime? It's nothing close to the "I'm better than you and you're below me" system that you're painting it out to be.
>>13743583
>>13743585
Did A-1 fix up the QUALITY on ViVid for the BD releases? Because other than the lack of budget for the later fights, it was a decent adaptation.
>>13743583
>>13743585
exception not the rule. I thought it mediocre.
Nanofate died with a whimper. I feel like symphogear is heading the same way. Nana can sing for new anime.
>>13743590
Could be considered what? Tsubasa and Chris are senpai and kouhai. There is no grey area or room for interpretation there. That's what they are.
>>13743586
>It's literally just Tsubasa is older than her and has also been at SONG longer
That's not what a senpai/kouhai relationship is. You can have a senpai/kouhai relationship without any organization or group involved at all. It's just that one is more knowledgable or skilled and looked up to because of that, which isn't true in their case. Since Chris's reveal, she's always has been as-good of a fighter to the point of putting Tsubasa in the hospital, and they always have snarky banter with neither looking up to the other. The only time she looked up to her was when she felt she fucked up trying to get the Cane.
>>13743589
Then as an alternative would you count Heartcatch?
It ran uninterrupted but it went for the equivalent of 4 seasons and it never stopped being good.
>>13743582
>The show always treated them as equals since Chris's first appearance
What are you even talking about anymore? Do you even have anything to back that up?
>>13743603
Could be considered as equals. Senpai/Kouhai isn't as black and white as you're making it out to be either way.
>>13743606
>That's not what a senpai/kouhai relationship is.
Yes it is, you idiot. That's literally what it is.
>>13743606
>You can have a senpai/kouhai relationship without any organization or group involved at all.
No shit sherlock, I was explaining what it was in the case of Chris and Tsubasa. It is not mutually exclusive with them both being good fighters or friends.
>>13743600
I don't remember much QUALITY in the BDs, maybe still a little in the first episode or two but not after that?
>>13743610
>Senpai/Kouhai isn't as black and white as you're making it out to be either way.
Yes it is. Have you ever actually been to a Japanese school or place of work in your life? What's with your obsession over being equals? Senpai doesn't mean "mysterious badass older person who guides me through life's mysteries and saves me when I'm in danger and then gives me awesome advice and a pat on the head." Stop getting your information from anime.

>>13743610
For the sake of my own sanity this is the last time I'm going to reply.
Being a senpai and kouhai does NOT in any way imply that they are unequal, if you're still going to argue that you're just being retarded on purpose. It's literally as simple as Tsubasa being older than Chris.
>>13743606
>one is more knowledgable or skilled and looked up to because of that,
That's not what senpai means at all.
>>13743600
>>13743619
Vivid's BDs are out?
Did they come with the OST?
>>13743610
>Do you even have anything to back that up?
She was the rival character in season 1, or did you forget that time that she put Tsubasa in the hospital?
>>13743611
You can have a senpai/kouhai relationship with neighbors, and you can not have a senpai/kouhai relationship with an upperclassman and lowerclassman. Or are you forgetting that the word "relationship" is in there, and that it requires specific inputs from both parties? Like them even acknowledging that one is a senior and one is a junior?
>>13743614
>I was explaining what it was in the case of Chris and Tsubasa. It is not mutually exclusive with them both being good fighters or friends.
My point is that these two do NOT have that kind of relationship. They're equals. The show treats both of them as the upperclassmen of Hibiki while saying that these two have similar power levels and experience. They're both senpai, but neither are kouhai.
>>13743623
>What's with your obsession over being equals?
>obsession
>Senpai doesn't mean "mysterious badass older person who guides me through life's mysteries and saves me when I'm in danger and then gives me awesome advice and a pat on the head."

Are you just looking to argue? Is that why you're so god awfully bad at it?
>>13743633
Tsubasa put herself in the hospital, if you don't remember. Tsubasa was in a suicidal state and wasn't fighting her best.
Once Tsubasa got out again with her new mindset she walked all over Chris in their fight.
>>13743608
Tsubomi so sexy.
>>13743631
I've yet to see the OST
Hopefully whenever we get next season because it had some good stuff.
>>13743633
Tsubasa is Chris and Hibiki's senpai
Chris and Hibiki are Tsubasa's kouhai
Chris is DMJii and Hibiki's senpai
I'm sure you've watched ten whole animes and are an expert on japanese culture but this really isn't a complex concept.
>>13743633
>Or are you forgetting that the word "relationship" is in there, and that it requires specific inputs from both parties?
It doesn't though. You're objectively wrong.
>>13743636
>implying I said or even suggested any of that
Sorry, I didn't realize you and the other idiot who's bringing up their skill in battle are different people. Regardless, you're wrong.
>Is that why you're so god awfully bad at it?
That would be you, who is literally making up definitions for words in a language you don't speak. Here you go, sport:

Hibiki is the sun.
>>13743637
>Tsubasa put herself in the hospital, if you don't remember.
She was forced into that position by Chris. Chris won.
>Once Tsubasa got out again with her new mindset she walked all over Chris in their fight.
You mean the G fight where they called off the match?
>>13743648
Good for you, you've learned a definition of senpai. But that doesn't mean all of those pairings have a senpai/kouhai relationship. Relation, sure, but not a relationship.
>>13743650
>It doesn't though. You're objectively wrong.
Way to back that up. You sure disproved me.
>>13743661

Cmon mate.
>>13743661
>Way to back that up
I linked the Japanese dictionary, you idiot. I speak Japanese. I've spent time in Japan. I have friends in Japan. You're pulling "facts" out of your ass based on a few battle shounen you've watched. You're retarded.
>>13743661
>Relation, sure, but not a relationship.
Oh, oh I see where this argument has stemmed from
"Relationship" doesn't mean romance you fucking idiot
>>13743658
Chris is Zenbu
>>13743670
And you're still wrong. The dictionary link only defines what a senpai is, which we've already established is true. But they don't have a senpai/kouhai relationship. Chris doesn't act like Tsubasa is a senior and Tsubasa doesn't act like Chris is a junior. Since their first fight, they've seen eachother as equal.
>>13743671
You know relationship means more than fucking, right?
>>13743686
>I don't think I act like my older brother is older than me, so that means he's not actually older than me
Ok retard-kun, keep on pretending you understand what you're talking about. Next time you're in school in Japan try telling your upperclassmen that they're not your senpai and let me know how it goes.
>Arguing about the meaning of words
This is why we need to nuke the moon.

>thinking that just because someone is an older brother means that you treat them like an older brother
I like how you're still completely ignoring my point and trying to crawl back to that "b-but she's older" bullshit. We've established she's older. But Chris doesn't act like Tsubasa is older, and Tsubasa doesn't act like she's the older one. They both just act.
>>13743702
He thinks Senpai/Kouhai is some magical relationship that plays out just like in all of his animes, and if it doesn't play out like he imagines it does based on said animes, then it isn't actually a senpai/kouhai relationship.
Only in /sgg/ would someone be so stupid that he'd say Japanese people don't know how to use their own words, but they do based on cartoons they watched.
It's not necessarily about who is older, either, but who has "seniority". You could be younger than someone in the same club as you but still be their senpai if you were in the club first.
>>13743704
>I like how you keep defaulting back to immutable facts, but that doesn't mean you're right
>I don't think they act like a senpai and kouhai should (despite not actually knowing what it entails) so it doesn't count
Ok. I'm done.
>>13743713
According to anon, you're only senpai if he thinks you're acting like one. Arbitrary things like who joined first don't matter.
>>13743717
>I don't think they act like a senpai and kouhai should (despite not actually knowing what it entails) so it doesn't count
Well, it doesn't. If two brothers are estranged and never knew of eachother's existence until they're in their 70s, then when they first meet they just treat eachother like normal people, according to you they still have an older brother/younger brother relationship.
>According to anon, you're only senpai if he thinks you're acting like one. Arbitrary things like who joined first don't matter.
No, I agree with that anon. Fucking Chris could be senpai to Tsubasa, if she acted like it. Just neither of them do towards eachother. A kouhai/senpai relationship is mostly based on either one looking down, one looking up, or one doing each. They have to acknowledge the seniority.
>>13743726
>or one doing each
*each doing one.
>>13743726
>Chris could be senpai to Tsubasa, if she acted like it. Just neither of them do towards eachother. A kouhai/senpai relationship is mostly based on either one looking down, one looking up, or one doing each. They have to acknowledge the seniority.
You actually had me going till just now. Splendidly done.
>>13743736
>You actually had me going till just now. Splendidly done.
Well, refute it. If one is not a senior and one is not a junior, then they're of the same level.
>>13743726
>They have to acknowledge the seniority.
Which Chris does by calling Tsubasa senpai.
>>13743726
The point and fact of the matter is that senpai/kouhai is ENTIRELY arbitrary, and based solely off those arbitrary factors. Tsubasa is senpai to Chris just as immutably as she is asian. It's a fact, not a concept.
>>13743749
Only later at a few points. Otherwise, she doesn't. It's called development.
>>13743751
>Tsubasa is senpai to Chris just as immutably as she is asian. It's a fact, not a concept.
We've already been over this. On paper, yes she is her senior in SONG and in school. But neither of them act like it, and since we're talking about their personal relationship and not rank, she's not.
I guess as another example, Topdad is biologically Hibiki's father, but he stopped acting as her father and they didn't have a father/daughter relationship again until the end of GX.
>>13743760
>Only later at a few points.
>But neither of them act like it
Yer contradicting yourself a little
>>13743760
>I guess as another example, Topdad is biologically Hibiki's father, but he stopped acting as her father and they didn't have a father/daughter relationship again until the end of GX.
>They don't have the 'relationship' so it doesn't count
If you have the title in your possession the car is fucking yours, anon. It doesn't matter if you stop driving it or loan it out.
>>13743769
>Yer contradicting yourself a little
No, because we're talking about the entirety of G.
The original discussion between the two other guys was that people shipped Tsubasa and Chris during G before Tsubasa/Maria started to get shipped by the show in GX.
During all of G until the last two episodes, Chris doesn't treat the relationship that way, and Tsubasa never treats it that way, which is my point.
Then they barely share any screentime in GX to change that, except Chris calls Tsubasa "senpai" once in episode 1, and then episode 6 is them fighting as on-level partners.
>>13743781
>If you have the title in your possession the car is fucking yours, anon. It doesn't matter if you stop driving it or loan it out.
Yes, you have the car, but that doesn't mean you're a hot rod junkie that tricks out his car or that you're fucking the exhaust pipe. Genjuro's more of a dad than Topdad was, and he's not related to any of them except Tsubasa as her older brother. He's the one that had more of a father/daughter relationship.
Having a title and performing the actions to maintain the stereotype of that title are two different things.
>>13743786
i'd wear that
>>13743791
Yeah, exactly.
One matters and one doesn't. You should be able to tell which.
>>13743800
The actions matter, the title doesn't.
Which was my point.
>>13743800
He's crazy. Please stop engaging.
>>13743803
You can't notarize actions.
I want to eat steak with Miku.
>>13743808
>"Actions speak louder than words" suddenly doesn't mean anything
I want to do many things with Itaba only some of which I'm comfortable sharing.
>>13743827
What, like late-night anime marathons in your jammies with loads of unhealthy snacks?
>>13743827
I want to do things with Chris that should only be done at home
>>13743835
And in front of her parents?
>>13743847
We can throw a blanket over it.
Or just, y'know, take it to the bedroom. That's what it's there for.
>>13743456
Maria actually felt natural shouting orders on the bridge and occasionally showing up for back up. She could just be like Chrono's mom or something.
DMJii frankly have no place in the story and their forced presence is like a weight dragging the entire cast down. Relegated them to SoL with the occasional fun bonus song would do wonders.
>>13743871
DMJii can stick around if they become actual goddamn characters at some point
I don't know what that argument was about but Tsubasa and Chris were shipped the second Chris stepped on Tsubasa's head. I was in the thread and saw it happen.
I started reading this thread then I remembered you should really stop making this thread.
I want to be Genjuuro
Strong, fit, still a bit dorky, friends with basically everyone he meets, gets to hang out with the Gears and congratulate them on their missions and successes and gets to be a surrogate papa for Chris
Only downside would be having to live my entire life on the bridge of the submarineand having to watch Tsubasa after Kanade's death
>>13743898Nothing wrong with the thread, just some of the people in it.
>>13743911
When you keep making the same thread you keep getting the same people.
>>13743913
And the threads will stop being made when people stop posting in them, don't you have a Toku thread to bitch at or something?
>>13743919
In what way did you think that overly defensive insult made sense?
People will just keep image dumping and "I want to x y" posting to keep the threads alive anyways.
>>13743925
Actually I was image dumping so the thread wouldn't solely be filled with that retarded argument. /m/ isn't very fast, one thread usually lasts the whole day and there's still plenty of discussion as well as the rest of the BDs, OVAs, the Live, and inevitable S4 announcement to wait for.
Hell we're faster than /srwg/ most days since all they've had for a while is a shitty mobile game and "OG3 when?"
>>13743932
It's a ridiculously fast thread by /m/ standards but in a way that's kind of the problem. Can't /u/ or someone take the endless relationship shitposting that will inevitably end up filling chain threads?
Then again I suppose the alternative is probably just people crying about GX for another two years.
>>13743948
The threads are pretty chill besides the regularly scheduled retarded argument. Which a decent amount of the time seem to be started by the same shitposter, the mods will catch on eventually.
>>13743948
The next season will be just as shit.

We haven't got proper SoL since the culturual festival from G. We con considerar SoL some things in episode 1 like "do that at home" with HibiMiku and Chris and the beach scene in episode 7 but Kaneko had to put the Garie fight and the introduction of topdad so well, that kinda fucked the episode. I know it's difficult since all the characters are introduced but Fine only revealing herself around episode 10 to the MCs besides Chris was great. Ver was also good since he was that based. Carol was very meh.
>>13744214
Man, s1 was so wonderful.
>>13744214
>con considerar
I fucked it putting "con" instead of "can" and "consider" in Spanish. Well, I think it's great for Chrisfags to understand Spanish, you wouldn't need to understand Japanese to speak with her.
>>13744202
>ignoring Chris' zenbu in favour of her ass
Such superior taste.
>apparently Aoi's favorite sailors are Uranus and Jupiter
Does she have good taste?
>>13744275
Miku is drooling but the question is "why?". Is it because she is in Chris' butt? Is it because she wants to catch Hibiki and fuck her in Chris' body?
>>13744289
>the two boyish sailors girls tend to love the most
>>13744275
Hibiki and Miku are just playing catch. Chris isn't even a factor in that, except for being the terrain.
Chris is better off not being shipperbait. She's a strong girl who needs no gay.
>>13744313
Ok.
>>13743998
>>13744313
No need, she's already bait for the waifufags to indulge in (either way).
>>13744313
She needs no g/u/y
>>13744382
What's a g/u/y?
>>13744403
I was trying to make a joke that she doesn't need a boyfriend or a girlfriend.
>>13744154
She mentioned something interesting. Fine is pursuing new research. She claims what they're doing in S.O.N.G. is the missing piece, a booty to surpass Sympho Gear.

Stop trying to shift blame. You're probably part of half the arguments yourself and just want to pin it on someone else.

So are you that one guy you were talking about?
>>13744042
Moon word is takusu, and it means to entrust someone with something. Usually it's got a bit of weight behind it, for example, in this picture Serenaaaaaaaa is entrusting the Airgehtlam to Maria. That's pretty heavy. Carol's dad told Carol to go learn about the world. That's a pretty big fucking deal, and that's the life's mission he 託す'd onto her. Kaneko was very eager to draw parallels to topdad, and Hibiki constantly whined that her did didn't leave her with or entrust her with anything. During episode 11 in his redemption scene, the entire plot bends over backwards to give him a chance at helping Hibiki to redeem himself, and when topdad somehow gained reflexes and quick thinking that can outdo both Hibiki and Carol (remember that even Genjuro didn't step out onto the battlefield with them once this season) he tossed the the pendant that fell down. Hibiki's line used the word 託す when she said "He gave me something!" Watching it, that scene just went ahead and cheapened the concept for the sake getting topdad in on the action. Kaneko went ahead and equated the lifelong mission of a peace and medicine loving alchemist to Hibiki's dad literally throwing her a rock because he had plot armor and her and Carol had plot retardation. Basically, it was the big pottery moment for them, in the same way that Tsubasa had her pottery moment with "You would dare call these swords?!"
If you speak moon, hearing that line and realizing he was trying to tie everything together like that in that one moment was like getting slapped in the face.
>>13744627
Yes, I understand, it's again a "It's like poetry, it rhymes" moment. And "topdad is the key to all of this". T-Thanks Kaneko.
>>13744641
Glad I could help clear it up.

This fucking guy.
>>13744627
At least tsurugi ja nai had the kazanari autism silliness factor offsetting the dumbness, and was actually pretty cool looking. That line sounds completely reasonable considering which character used it. The topdad redemption was just plain hamfisted rather than hammy.

At least we're lucky she got a Figma.
>>13745015
Of course. Don't complain when she's in an orange bunny suit though.
>>13745029
But she looks much cooler transformedwhile still having a bit of lewd but not that obvious
>>13745029
If she does end up getting a bunny suit figure and nothing else I'd buy it out of desperation then fly to Japan to beat the shit out of whoever designed it and whoever wanted it made into a figure
That Chris bunny figure was a mock to the fans when you don't release any of the gears transformed.
Lets look at the facts from S1-GX. Between the giant laser tower that almost destroyed the moon, the giant explosion over japan that was stronger than several nukes (Or the whole FIS incident in general), the cut down the middle of K2, and the giant hole in the middle of Tokyo it's no surprise by now that SONG (And by relation Japan) isn't exactly in the most optimal position in world politics.
International Relic War is the only feasible route for S4 to go (Aside from Custodians), which could either lead to a slew of new geahs and/or a new Relic-based monster thing. The big questions are what other countries are involved and who are each of them fighting. Is it Country A vs Country B with SONG thrown in between to mediate, or Everyone vs SONG as SONG becomes public enemy number 1?
As for countries, the US is a bit fucked in Symphoverse but they could still have some of Ryoko's studies somewhere and something American enough to make into a Geah (They could bullshit Geronimo's hatchet for an axe gear, but something dumb like the pen used to write the Declaration of Independence could work). The Dark Continent is definitely up to something with Ahnenerbe being name-dropped, so they've got some stake in this. Russia and China are the only remaining big powers, and with Shenshou Jings being as common as they are we could use those as the MP Gear/mook enemies to replace the Noise.

The Russian loli hates the Symphogears because they are too gay and she wants to bring Chris to her side.
The American loli tries to convince Chris to nuke South America as revenge. And then build a wall at home.
>>13745060
The USA could even have a custodian ship that crashed in Roswell and reverse engineered something of it or something.
China territory its probably crawling with Relics, they could even have a new fodder to replace the Noise inspired by the Terracota Soldiers Army. The Tomb of the Emperor could even be something Frontier Tier.
Europe its also full of Relics to pick up from.
Not to mention you have stuff like Atlantis to pick up from too for more Mediterranean territories.
>>13745060
You just reminded me of Nobunagun.
>>13745060
I don't know why everyone automatically assumes American Gears would need to use American tools when there aren't even any weapons in what barebones mythology that America has. Why wouldn't it be the same as every other Gear in that the culture their Gear comes from is relatively unimportant?
But I doubt that Kaneko would be able to do a battle royale series (even if it would be a cool idea and would work wonders on actually testing the morals that it's been following for the last 3 seasons) unless he was given around 50 episodes to work with since even if we're assuming 3 factions with USA and Europe getting minimum 2 Gears that's still way too many songs and characters to try and squeeze out.
>>13745096
>I don't know why everyone automatically assumes American Gears would need to use American tools
