Sees a shit he didn't think of
Considers it for a second
I'm in

Oh come on. Don't tell me they're going there? I saw the RAWs and Mew almost kissed Ploy. That would be so cheap

Still, returning to the original point, Dynasty Scans should have a KumiRei week or something

The butt goddess has graced us again with her gay.

Praise be, my brothers and sisters. Praise be

That's one of the things that makes me mad about both the novels and the anime: There's baiting for the sake of popularity. Even in the novels, where Shuichi is more prominent and there's something resembling a "relationship" between him and Kumiko, Reina and Kumiko are way more important to each other than anyone around them. Which is why, like so many people, I was so pissed off when they pulled the "I like Taki-sensei" card to kind of justify Reina NOT being gay, and then they completely forgot that point. Correct me if I'm wrong, Thiaguinho-sama, but they never mention it again in the books (I have terrible memory so I like to make sure). It was made just to tie the lose ends so Kumiko and Reina didn't ended together.

Value dissonance dictates that we, as westerns, don't think the same way as Japanese people, where girls "train" each other for relationships by playing gay in highschool. Which is sadly why KumiRei will never happen in canon, and which is why it's so maddening what KyoAni is doing. Want to make a nice, absurdly pretty anime about a high school orchestra, with a lot of character development and a somehow believable romatic arc for the main character? Then do it properly, but don't bait us this wat for the sake of popularity. It's such a dick move

What's next? EliRin!?

Wouldn't that be great?

INB4 people comment how this would never happen in the show because it apparently "Will never happen"...

Do you have a source?

See every discussion of the show on this site.

Well its true :P
Kyoani are masters of the bait, but they baited too much and i have become immune to their shit at this point.

Well, technically not completely their fault this time, almost all bait we see is in the light novel, they just put a little more in the anime.

See, the trick is to put in a little to feed the fandom's imagination but not enough to leave them satisfied... (we have doujins cuz of that) have you ever wondered why hinted couples are more popular than cannon? starting with mother NanoFate (everybody is in for NanoFate) even though is practically shouted in there... they just leave it to our imagination... Hibike! kinda (beautifully if you ask me) overused it resulting in most of the fandom offended I guess... but I think it is enough with the ''It'll never happen'' rant... since, if you pay attention, it (almost) never happens xD

I see your point here. I guess, since Hibigay was so great and the relationship between Reina and Kumiko is so much intense than in the novels (with Reina actually taking parts of what was Shuichi's in the novels and Kumiko openly dismissive of Shuichi in the anime) that, for a second there I forgot how much bait is there always in anything with KyoAni's name.

I was weak

I will never understand why there's so little KumiRei here in Dynasty Scans

NozoMaki??????

I'll always be baffled on why there's almost none KumiRei going on on Dynasty Scans

We need more NodoYui in this world

Of course you can use a dildo for self defense. Haven't you played Saints Row?

Man, I can't believe how kind is Kurata to make a manga about all of us

Also, I'm making Keisuke my icon

On these times of drama and over the top wangst, it is up to NanoFate to restore the cuteness of the yuri world

NO HONKING
DENIED!!

Veebu must be a very strange person to keep on coming with this hilariously unique little gifts

Man, I just love how Umi is so smooth not even she notices when she's pulling the moves

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! WE COULD HAVE HAD A YURI MATURE WIFE COUPLE NETORARE?! WHY THE FUCK DIDN'T WE HAD SUCH A DELICIOUSLY STICKY DEVELOPMENT?!

Because female readers would scorn it? I dunno, Japanese are very "duty" minded usually, I could totally see them hating it especially if there's children and the matter of the "family unit" at risk.
You're talking about a country where the married couple often call eachother "mother" and "father" because their role is more important to them than their own individual selves. Although that's changing slightly over time.

There's a difference in ditching a boyfriend/girlfriend in your teens and ditching your spouse.

At least that's my take on it, to me it seems less risky to do a cliché high school drama romance especially considering the mag and the audience.

Exactly that's why I feel this is an easy way out. The author herself said that she loves that kinda stuff (Acording to some friends, these kind of dramas are fairly common in japanese television, even with the wifexwife setting) and dumming it out feels like a strange thing to do when the other setting would have sold all the more

It's true that Japanese households value roles over individual selfs, but that's precisely why this kind of stuff sells so much: In repression, controversy is all the better

Sorry about my grammar, I'm kinda drunk right now

That's some fine JoJo poses

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! WE COULD HAVE HAD A YURI MATURE WIFE COUPLE NETORARE?! WHY THE FUCK DIDN'T WE HAD SUCH A DELICIOUSLY STICKY DEVELOPMENT?!

Oh man, out of nowhere, a plot! Sign me up!
