In other news (and for no one's surprise) LL is getting a new anime with a new group!

Number is really irrelevant unless you want to have "canon" ships without any girl being left behind. Also number is only a problem when you don't consider threesomes.

While I was expecting more Love Live, I wasn't actually expecting them to use PDP. This is a much larger gap between introduction and anime that with the other groups

And having an odd number doesn't matter when they keep giving one of the girls a girlfriend in their rival group

Oh right!!! the rival group, I'm looking forward to see them... I wonder if the app already talks about them? anyway it doesn't change the fact that I want my perfect diagram of ships! so we can start another holy war.

On another note.... Marriage in rifle is beautiful is such an easy concept lo/ (ep09)

OMG OMG OMG OMG NEW LOVE LIVE SERIES CONFIRMED, SOMEBODY HELP ME IT WILL BE THE "PERFECT DREAM PROJECT"

https://twitter.com/LoveLive_staff/status/1206142551000006656?fbclid=IwAR1x9Eba2O2-U9K1QN7kkdBCgqt8RNW0NJDcG7Xp3LH75XcDXkq4t_Ii1zM

I really liked Aquours and Muse, these new ones however, I don't know their personalities, but from design alone I'm interested in 3 of them... By the way, the Mysterious girl revealed her face in an event (I don't play the game but I like the franchise), want to spoil the surprise? here https://youtu.be/o2KNnzaGae8

Oooh been waiting for the love live pdp anime for a while. I've always been more interested in their character designs than aqours and I never really caught onto aqours as much as muse so I'm really looking forward to it.

I really tried to get into aqours too. Like I followed the seiyuu stuff pretty religiously before the anime came out, and even went to a few of their concerts (delayed theater viewing and live at AX), but s1 was okay, and I think most of their music was never as good as muse's were to me. I never felt the urge to watch s2 after.

Hoping PDP will be better for me. I love the songs they put out so far and the character's feel more interesting. Just needa see how the anime goes now.

Sunshine S2 was by far my favorite part of the franchise, so I'm curious about how they'll do something different with a third group. If the two previous groups are anything to go by, the manga adaptation at least should be extremely gay.

And with the time between the group launch and the anime, the fandom must have had ample time to decide which ships they liked. Hopefully that means no sudden pairing switches like in Sunshine, that was terrible.

The visual for the anime does show everyone paired up, so it'll probably be fairly gay

Going by the series' page here, the fandom has not, in fact, decided on which ships it likes

Implying they have to. Can't everyone just ship whoever they like? Having "canon" ships is the main source of cancer in the fandom.

Sunshine S2 was by far my least favourite part lol

I like them all equally, even though Sunshine's S1 was REALLY slow, like snail slow, but still quite enjoyable overall because the girls are really friends.

This is good, it means they're shipable with each other in equal terms.

Did someone know where the Board game anime has gone from the manga. The scans that i found only goes to Vol.2 and from what i gather the anime have skip a lot of things (and i mean a lot, of the 18 chapters of the 2 volumes, maybe less thana half have gone to the anime). Did someone have read the manga and know if what happen in the anime is from the manga or most are original. Also as what chapter the end of the anime is suposs to correspond.

Blade of the immortal so far really has bad animation most fights has been reduced to just splash screen and that's just it! WHY!!! Dororo can have proper fight animation!! WHY !!

Character design in subtext anime be like

And then you remove the suffering emo parts and u get

Character design in subtext anime be like

I'd argue that Homura's hairs are black when the other are more blue/dark blue.

Including MadoMagi is a bit unfair, since that's the one everyone else is copying

Also MagiReco is a spin off for MadoMagi and I'd argue 2 main leads resembling Homura and Madoka (in design and relationship) is more than intentional. Also MadoMagi was already blatant text and MagiReco has canon lesbian character and made story even gayer in general, so I can't really see it as subtext either.

Another reason we can't see MadoMagi as merely subtext is the KyouSaya scene in Rebellion.

Hahaha well I was being that serious about the subtext but it's funny, I think it's about the red and blue Oni folklore or something.

Also! Vladlove revealed some designs, I didn't know https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/daily-briefs/2019-12-24/mamoru-oshii-vladlove-anime-series-reveals-more-staff-members/.154725

Here hoping they can make a good balance between comedy and yuri

Hahaha well I was being that serious about the subtext but it's funny, I think it's about the red and blue Oni folklore or something.

Not really. Cute girl series tend to star one of two related archetypes: The energetic, talented, and kinda dumb redhead, or a pink-haired girl who's like that but with more self-doubt

The aloof girl with long dark hair is older, more widespread archetype, but has become common for love interests in these kind of series even since people noticed that MadoHomu was popular

Also! Vladlove revealed some designs, I didn't know

Yeah, I'm not sure what to make of that. Getting wildly different impressions from those two visuals

More news and a PV, it looks like its gonna be good

OMG!!! the animation looks so alluring!! can't wait! I hope they make it 2 cours because a single season can't fit into the light novel's slow pace. I can only hope.

Yeah since most stuff important to the progression of their relationship would begin in the 2nd cour. I really hope it’s 24 eps, I wouldn‘t even mind if I had to wait two seasons in-between both cours or even a whole year, just knowing it would happen, would satisfy my needs.
