I was expecting an anime about this suave motherfucker: Alas, disappointment.

I'm three episodes behind now, so I can marathon them next week and avoid the cliffhangers.

My current worry: The more the future-people team up, the more obvious it will become to Kakeru that the others are doing something without him/about him. That realization might cause some unproductive thoughts to lodge in Kakeru's mind

I had a similar thought earlier in the show. Everyone is working with the best intentions, but sometimes they are a little less than subtle about how they approach Kakeru. Also, this week was like the least sad episode so far, the ending was downright happy. I'm worried because something has to happen next episode to return us to the status quo of depressed, that or they're building for one big sad at the end.

New episode looked kind of weird, maybe they ran out of time at the end. However I approve of Hagita's drawn-on abs.

drat, Suwa's such a super nice guy. It must've stung when they were at the restaurant and azusa said how she'd hope to see naho and kakeru like that 10 years from now.

Going forward, despite the historical ties to our subforum name, I would appreciate less rape jokes in ADTRW.

Okay, I finally have the time to start catching up on Orange, since I'm a month behind. Kakeru has officially found the least smooth way to try to get a girl to say she likes him, and also:  It's you, you idiot.  I've missed these dumb goofs.  e; I can't believe it worked and then he didn't ask her. Lemon-Lime fucked around with this message at 14:46 on Aug 31, 2016 |

I wonder if it's possible for there be a romantic anime where all of the characters involved have learned basic communication skills.

i'm a few eps behind, but i don't really begrudge the anxiety-ridden teen and suicidally depressive teen having emotional communication issues.

Half the point of romance manga is usually to torture readers with will-they-or-won't-they, because that's always fun (in small doses), so it kind of comes with the territory.

Also, jitsu wa watashi wa has actual romance in it and while it does have the will he won't he stuff for a bit, they do eventually get together and it's glorious. And also cute, and dumb. There is also a secondary romance going on right now between two other characters and it's absolutely fantastic and I hope everything turns out great for them

Just caught up on this show, it's really good so far. I can feel something super sad happening for the ending though, this is one of the saddest shows in a while not because it's constantly hammering on how poo poo everything is but exactly because it isn't. Everyone is good friends having fun and then you remember that hey sometimes people are going through some poo poo and they can't show it all the time. It's almost nice how honest the show is though, showing that depression isn't just something that can be wished away by ~*friendship*~ although it helps. But that's exactly why I think the ending is gonna be something that hits really hard, it wouldn't go with the theme of the show to just fix everything. Also the cast gives me a persona 4 vibe

I hope they can pull the production back together for the remaining couple of episodes. They did a ton of outsourcing on episode 9 and it really shows in all the meguca faces, but a lot fewer in-house animators were involved with episode 9 so hopefully that means they've all been working on catching up to make the remaining episodes a success. (reddit source)Sakurazuka posted:Because it would be over pretty quick if they didn't. I don't think that's really true... I keep wishing there could be more anime focused on relationships after they've started, rather than treating the start of one as the end in and of itself. There's so much more story to tell than just the will-they-won't-they buildup that nearly every romance anime focuses on. I'm enjoying Orange overall, but I've been kind of going hot and cold on the story. I've really loved and been moved by the parts involving Kakeru's internalized guilt, and Suwa getting involved resulted in some great happy moments, but it sometimes feels a bit corny to me when all their friends are involved. edit: THE AWESOME GHOST posted:Everyone is good friends having fun and then you remember that hey sometimes people are going through some poo poo and they can't show it all the time.

I bet it happens like in the second to last episode, and then in the last episode his waifu disappears and he has to battle her 7 evil exes or some poo poo to get her back as the plot setup for the second season which hasn't been released yet (and probably hasn't confirmed for renewal).

Oh, poo poo, right, I meant to say read the manga. The anime is generally ill-received as it tends to not really deliver on comedic timing very well which the manga excels at. It also doesn't really get very far iirc, and also doesn't have the manga author's impeccable face artistry.

SweetBro posted:gently caress, I already watched the anime. What chapter should I pick up on then? Maybe try about a dozen chapters in. The early chapters are not indicative of what the series becomes, for one, the art style changes fairly drastically from the initial chapters. It's newly licensed but only two or so volumes are currently out in english. The scans are up to like 138 or so chapters on kissmanga/batoto. The principal is the best.

If you want a romance anime that's actually about a romance watch Ore Monogatari also features an incredible bro named

At first I didn't really care either way with Hagita, I have realized the error of my ways. Question for the manga readers, does it look like we're going to get the whole story, or are we going to leave off at the end of an arc?
