I don't get it. Says this series is complete, but chapter 2 came out few days ago?

Just read few comments above.

I love this, but some of the characters look identical to each other and i find it really confusing!

That's kind of the double-edged sword of restricting yourself to real, natural Japanese hair/eye colors, and having 99% of the girls wearing samey school uniforms "seifuku". There are practical, artistic reasons to the whole cliche "you gotta have blue/anime hair".

No. It's the effect of the same-face syndrome aka I can only draw few faces in anime-style.

I was going to make that suggestion as well, but the point is most people only use the front page and assumes everything they see here is everything that gets added and rarely use recently added, because they think it's just all the same stuff. So if you add something with earlier date, which won't show up on main page, most people will miss it. Nobody really cares when something was originally released and look for stuff based on when they remember it being added, so reverse would probably be more useful. Front page working like current recently added. Even when sorting using date of adding, you could still keep release date or even have both. Changing it at this point would probably be way too hard though. The point is, most people probably aren't even aware the way series are sorted on front page and recently added page is different.

Yet another pink happy girl x black haired cool beauty magic girl anime https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2019-10-13/shaft-makes-tv-anime-for-azone-assault-lily-doll-franchise/.152191

Funny enough, the pink hair girl VA is the one who have voice Kibo from Granbelm, Kaos from Comic girls and Yusha from Endro which all 3 are pink hair girls.

Just like real actors, VA are often typecasted. And yes, despite only using voice, it often includes characters appearance as well.

Vacation Maou to Pet had such an awful, rushed ending. i'm bailin' on this one y'all. gl

Assuming that the rushed ending is because author rushed it and not because series was axed or whatever.

Looking at the covers of the manga (15 of them godamn!) at least there doesn't seem to be a permanent guy in the group

Funny thing about covers is that even if mc is a guy, there's very low chance he'll be on cover, especially if most of characters are pretty girls. Looking at just anime posters, you'd think most harem animes are full female cast. The point is, absence of a guy on cover/poster means nothing, because they're often omitted in favor of much more marketable cute girls.To be fair though, Saikoro did look more like your typical cgdct, so I am pretty surprised not only there is some guy, but that there's clear het as well.

Didn't I Say to Make My Abilities Average in the Next Life (Watashi, Nouryoku wa Heikinchi de tte Itta yo ne!) episode 1 is out and it has some yuri potential, the first 'villain' just wanted a harem of little girls for herself lol

I have mixed feelings. I didn't like some choices in manga, but I might prefer it to anime after all. Well I'll keep watching for the time being I guess.

Wait so if chapter 10 is the end... Why is this manga still marked as ongoing?

Because someone forgot to change status.

'tis the season of preachy mangas.

It's nowhere near the lvl of Kanojo ni Naritai.

Bringing your heavily closeted friend who is wracked with internalized homophobia probably isn't the best idea though.

Isn't that the best way to show her she isn't weird? It's pretty clear author created that situation, so Koto can finally face her fears and open up to Mogu about her past. In other words, redemption arc,

Great. Now reading entire thing will be always pain in the ass. Thanks licensing!

Null Peta was WTF I'm watching for me, but at least episodes are short.

I can see why few scenes in Hataage! Kemono Michi could made 1 uncomfortable, but outside of that it actually got few good laughs out of me, so I think I'll keep watching it for the time being.

In further news, the Black Fox movie is pretty decent, and you can definitely read yuri into it

Yea, was just going to post that. Animation is really good as well, if you ignore occasional CGI crowds (seriously, I get that it's easier, but don't be so freaking lazy with it).

BugDevil posted:

There is a Psycho-Pass movie. Not sure if I should touch that. I felt like season 2 went a bit off the rails and a movie would probably be even more ludicrous.

Unlike sequel, which pretty much was forced to keep status quo, movies are directed by original staff (in fact that's the reason season 2 was made by different staff, because they were busy with the movie) so I think it should be safe to watch.

Also the 2 new isekais that showed up this week seem to be trashy.......ikr? who would've thought!

Out of curiosity. Which 2 you meant, cos I found 3...

Shinchou Yuusha (where they tried to copy the charm of Aqua from Konosuba but fail terribly) finishing the first chapter was like a chore and the only interesting part came at the end imo ... But... I didn't laugh not even once so it just doesnt' work for me. The other has a wrestler fighter as protagonist, I haven't watched this but my friends already dislike and I trust them and I wasn't even going to give it a chance anyway.

The third one is probably the girl who likes book, right? haven't watch one yet, could be too slow for my liking..........AH! there's also one with a super OP girl protagonist! "Didn't I tell you to make my abilities average?!" or something. I want to watch that XP it hasn't aired yet but it looks full of hard subtext

I found Shinchou Yuusha, Hataage! Kemono Michi and Choyoyu!. So there's actually 5...

I started to watch Houkago Saikoro Club and yea, I like shy girl and Aya's logic and enthusiasm is funny, but that crying scene really felt weird and unnatural. I mean getting teary was ok, but squatting and crying like helpless child felt out of place.

I read what was available from manga for "Average" girl and it was ok, though i didn't feel like waiting for more. Maybe I'll give anime a shot. I didn't really like some of storytelling choices in it.

EDIT/ Rotfl i read first 3 chapters of Houkago Saikoro Club long ago and totally forgot about it. It didn't click until they followed class rep to secret dice club. I either planned to read it later, but never got to it or read what was available at the time and never checked again.

If kase was a guy (which she is pretty much written as one) everyone would think she was being really controlling and unfair. But i guess thats ok with two girls! I really dont think the author knows how actual lesbian relationships work instead just writes a het relationship but with two girls.

I'm not a lesbian so it might be different here, but at least from the view of someone in a gay relationship it doesn't seem horribly different than a straight one. Are lesbians different somhow?

Did you really ask me if lesbian relationships are different from heterosexual ones lmao. Well there are no power dynamics for one.

Rotfl.

And I may have heard something more preposterous than "it's written as a het relationship," but I cannot recall where at the moment.

This perhaps? Can't think of anything more ridiculous.

That's still stupid thinking, you can't blame all humans because one human kill you. She can be mad against the one she kill her yes and that's normal but getting mad over everyone because of one individual is too much of an amalgam.

She is a literal birdbrain.

Which is actually a myth and old believe. Birds are actually pretty smart animals.

Here summer break for elementary, middle and high school last for little over 2 months. Entire july and august. After all it's summer break for a reason. So yes, to me 50 days summer break might even feel a bit short. But in exchange we don't really have other long breaks. For example our winter break lasts only 2 weeks and that's probably the second longest we have. On the other hand when you're attending university their summer break last over 3 months, because new year starts in october and final exams usually happens during july, so outside of them, you pretty much has no classes. But again. Other breaks are very short in exchange.

So no. I don't feel very spoiled. That's just how our educational system works and what is normal to me. It wasn't my choice and there are pros and cons like with everything.

Is there a medical term of this kind of disorder?

Sociopath.

i don't think so.

Sociopaths do have feelings, but they prioritize their own, or view other people feelings only in relation to their own.

Example: if the parents of a sociopath were to die, they'd be sad and feel pity for themselves.

The MC here, I think, is portrayed as, even if her parents were to die, she'd be unable to feel anything.

I was actually half joking. The way she can't sympathize with others and needs to pierce herself to feel any stimulus is pretty reminiscence of sociopaths though.

What? I never claimed that I had any studies on emotional abuse ready to throw at his face.

Except we weren't talking about emotional abuse but your statement about promiscuity being inherently bad for your health.

No. That has nothing to do with the thing you quoted. That is off-topic.
We were talking about Miyuki.

"It's funny coming from you after you stated something as fact, without giving evidence to support it."

That something was: "Sleeping around always ends badly. Always. It's just a statistical inevitability."

Which you then constantly argued as true.

And here: "The fact you specifically replied to random asking about it, to just say you're not going to since you're done" I was referring to this:

BugDevil posted:

EDIT: Jeez. I am done with the slut topic now. You two are insufferable.

So I'm guessing I'll never be seeing any kind of citation to back up that blatantly spurious statistical claim you pulled out of your ass then.

LIker I said, I'm done with this topic. This isn't the right thread for it. The Miyuki thing however I can talk about.

You could easily say you have no studies on it. I wonder why you didn't.

(and it's not just about health, stop adding modifiers)

I didn't think there was any difference between "for you" and "for your health", I just thought it sounded better, but since you insist, it actually makes it easier for me.

It was hyperbole. Statistically speaking the more random people you sleep with the higher the probability is. It's simple math.

Anything can end up badly for you the more you do it. The more you do it the more there is chance for something to go wrong. It's true for everything. But it ignores every other possible factor. In other words, this statement is utterly meaningless unless you can back it up with something. And you can't, hence it's just your opinion. Also just because you can calculate probability for something, it doesn't mean it will happen. It's more likely to happen, but that's about it.

Also you complain I added word health? Be happy I ignored you saying that "it's nothing to be proud of", "It's just an unhinged way of life", "These things (junkfood enthusiasm and emo cutters) are related in so far that they have averse consequences on your life" and the cherry on the top "the consequences of that lifestyle exist right now and that's a fact". I'm sure all of those are "statistical inevitabilites" as well and not just your opinions you try to push as facts.

I won't go out of my way to get you studies on this crap after all the nonsense that was thrown at me already.

You brought it on yourself in the first place.

Why exactly are you tryng so hard to restart this convo? I won't be responding to any more of it in this thread and that's final.

I'm allergic to hypocrisy.

Either show me stats or admit, it's just your biased opinion.
