Other thread is up to 3 hours. Mods are asleep.

This has got to be one of the most childish things I have ever seen on an image board. Who cares who makes the general OP? Post in the thread, it lasts a few days before it reaches bump limit and then another OP gets made. The content of the OP isn't a significant factor for the thread. If the OP was goatse, it still wouldn't change the thread.
You are all underage retards with autism.

This is the only time there will be any comment on this inane general thread drama.

There are no site rules about when and who can create new general threads. The job of janitors/mods is not to enforce your personal thread etiquette. You can abide by your own rules of sticking to the thread to page 10 if you want, but shitting up the new one because you consider it "early" is not acceptable.

In particular, a certain ban evading user keeps making generals (and shitposting in others') in hopes of causing drama and getting a leg up on a namefag they don't like.

For those of you who also just can't handle it, I suggest using a name filter.

>>2369692
You're supposed to keep the board tidy, not enable the fuckers shitting all over it

One job, ONE FUCKING JOB you have and you can't even do it, you incompetent tool

>>2369692
So if there are no site rules to enforce as to 'when' a General can be created, why were the previous early threads deleted?

>>2369692

>>2369692
>>2369692
>a certain ban evading user
You say this a lot. Is it one person or is it multiple ban evaders violating different rules?

>>2369706
Since there isn't a way to stop it, maybe the solution is to create a new thread for people who don't like the namefag antics? It can be rebranded as just a Dump thread or something.

Maybe it's Time to Leave.

>>2369692
Can we try a rolling General thread?

The refusal to allow a new thread to start without absurd shitposting like this, because of a completely made-up rule about early threads, is much more clutter than the existence of a new general when the old one is on page 7. Get over yourselves.

Threads have been deleted when started by a ban evader who has lost the privilege of posting on 4chan, or when multiple were made at once.

Here's what I ask of you: just relax and don't worry about when or who creates new threads. It really doesn't matter. If general threads were crowding the whole board, maybe it would make sense to be so particular about thread etiquette, but they're not. There's only one other one on the board right now, on page 7.

If a general thread is started by a ban evader but already has significant amounts of legitimate discussion, is the thread still deleted?

>>2369727
People are complaining because it's common for there to be 4-5 completely unused general threads sitting in the catalog. There aren't right now because they've been (correctly) deleted for the last few days.

The main problem of the general thread is that literally anybody can make a new thread just by copying the previous OP. Thus turning it into the race condition that we see right now.

One solution I can think of is to follow the relatively functional Recent Releases and Yuri Game threads, meaning the OP will have some useful information like a summary of recent yuri anime/manga news (e.g. anime adaptation news, significant yuri-related events in anime/manga), and also maybe a list of links to the active threads of major franchises and recent anime.

This will be a lot of work of course, but that's the point. The new OP poster has to compile all these info in order to make the new thread, thus preventing the problem plus making the OP a bit more useful which is a good bonus.

>>2369737
No, we won't nuke a bunch of good posts because of the OP.

>>2369739
I appreciate the sentiment of not wanting to clutter the board. But obsessing about new thread creation to the point of thread wars and filling every new thread with junk right out of the gate makes things more unpleasant, not better. And there's some expectation here that it's the job of janitors/mods to enforce this etiquette, but there are no rules to support that. When we enforce the actual rules, the meta posts are going to get deleted, the "early" thread is going to stay up, and everybody is going to feel hard done by.

I'm not going to babysit this thread. Please consider taking it easy and just posting yuri, and not worry about such trivial matters going forward.

>>2369744
But then the posters of any thread that gets left out of the OP will complain that "their" thread wasn't worthy of mention, leading to more shitposting. This board just continually shits itself like an elderly invalid. Anyone can just read the catalog to find what they want.

>>2369752
I appreciate the replies to the issue, but all this means is that those posters are justified in creating 20 different empty general threads in a race to be first.

>>2369727
So does that mean if a thread has been created, someone can make a new one for the purposes of getting the previous one deleted?

>>2369744
I'd say links to specific series threads would probably be a bad idea like >>2369755
. Maybe other general-themed threads such as Yuri Game and Light Novel, rather than specific series?
I like the idea of having recent headlines though.

>>2369757
No, it means the situation >>2369756 describes is also not acceptable. Obsessing over thread creation to the point where you race to be first is even worse than obsessing over being the last thread on page 10 before anyone is "allowed" to make a new one.

I completely believe you can move past both those things if you simply don't get worked up about it and talk about it all the time in every thread.

>>2369756
>>2369757
Creating multiple duplicate threads, particularly out of spite for who created another one, would probably get you in trouble.
There should only be at maximum two Generals on the board; the one that's active and the one that's saging. While the gap between is debatable and, like the Mod says, not enforced, if there's another thread saging when the current one hits bump limit, wait for that one to get bumped off before making a new one.

The rest if just being considerate, like not using thumbnails that can be confused with other threads.

>>2369755
I agree that part was a bit iffy (the Yuri Game thread manages to do it without trouble though), but the main part is the news summary thing. We just need some kind of format so not anybody can instantly make a new thread.

>>2369765
Yes, that's a better idea.

>>2369772
I completely agree, I was just staying that how the mod left it seems to justify racing to be the first and creating junk threads so that "your" thread is the one that's used.

I personally have never made a general thread and have no issue with page ten threads since I use a watcher.

Can we just have a separate general thread for legitimate yuri discussion? This one can continue to be the namefags, people triggered by namefags, and lgbt shitpost thread.

>>2369765
While I agree that more effort should be put into the creation of general threads, putting "news" is the OP is asking for more drama. What is newsworthy is subjective. All it takes is an OP who thinks meta is news to start a fresh shit storm.

>>2369779
Having a seperate meta thread is only going to make it worse.

>>2369779
>>2369780
Can't hurt to try, in fact I've been musing over it. What should it be called? General Dump?

Just ban Shin from posting outside Aikatsu, that's all he talks anyway.

The autosaging general thread still has probably another two or three days of life in it anyway. /u/ moves as slow as molasses, it's in no danger of getting pushed off the board or hitting the reply limit any time soon.

>>2369807
I think it's more correct to call his shilling spam, but same difference.

>>2369727
>Here's what I ask of you: just relax and don't worry about when or who creates new threads.
>>2369770
>I completely believe you can move past both those things if you simply don't get worked up about it and talk about it all the time in every thread.
So never. You should know how 4chan works by now.

The only way to really make sure the general thread making doesn't go out of hand is to enforce some sort of restriction on thread making, be it page 10 rule or restricting the number of threads in the catalog at the same time. In fact, I believe people already gave up on the page 10 thing and just want spammers to stop spamming general thread OPs.

>>2369807
>SHiT makes these threads for the sole purpose of advertising his own threads, his scanlations, and his "OTP".
>advertising his own threads
Agreed that this is annoying. It's not rule breaking though

>his scanlations
Not rule breaking at all. If there was no new scanlations linked on this board, there would be a lot less to talk about.

>his "OTP"
This doesn't break any rules. /u/ is a yuri board and posting about female couples is obviously allowed.

While Aikatsu doujin is probably better off being posted in the Aikatsu thread, posting it in the general isn't rule breaking. I think if there were to be rules added over what can be posted where, it would only lead to a slippery slope of rule faggotry and backseat moderation. Both would increase stagnation on an already slow board.

It was unexpected Ran and Aoi has matching cards in Photokatsu despite the cards were introduced months apart. Japan is on to something here and I LOVE it.

I believe the message is clear here. Shin is protected by mods (he's probably friends with them or something) and so he can do as he pleases.
There's nothing we can do about it.

But if SHiN should get banned for linking his scanlations, what happens when another scanlator posts a link about their work? If posting about new scanlations is advertising, then everyone doing it would be banned. How far is this going to go? Is linking to yuri manga on Dynasty going to be against the rules? Unless you are suggesting that mods selectively target SHiN, then regarding scanlation as advertising is unworkable.

>>2369839
Before the post timers killed it, story time threads were popular on both /a/ and /u/. I don't understand why you think that using the image upload feature of an image board to share doujin is a shocking concept.

Thread meta is being generated because of SHiN's behavior. Don't you see how many people are annoyed by his attention whoring? We wouldn't have this situation otherwise, that's why you should solve the problem at its source(that is, SHiN's annoying behavior).

>>2369862

You're just choosing to ignore the problem instead of taking action, even though this issue has derailed several threads in the past few months.
It's not just a couple of users who are complaining here, and you would know it if you actually browsed this board, and using namefilers solves absolutely nothing because that guy keeps making new general threads, thus making the filter counterproductive because they would get filtered.
I can't believe I need to explain such a thing to a mod.

Best way to fix everything?

You're not helping anything.

Let's ask ourselves a question. What is the topic of this thread? Let's see:

>*Screenshots, pages, and discussion about general series, current or old, not covered by an existing thread, be it yuri, fanservice, subtext or goggles. Canon and non-canon both welcome.
Nope, we already have an Aikatsu thread.

>*News reports about things relevant to our interest
Neither new nor interesting to anybody but SHiN - as he well knows, considering the whining about nobody except him posting in the thread, essentially outright stating "feed my ego and I'll stop being so obnoxious".

>*Original content that doesn't fit any specific thread topics
Again, already has its own thread.

>*Pretty much anything that doesn't have or need its own thread.
Anyone else sensing a pattern here?

Okay, now bear with me here:

>You will not post any of the following outside of /b/: Trolls, flames, racism, OFF-TOPIC REPLIES...

More generally, as the thread title suggests, this is a *discussion* thread, not an image dump. Discussion cannot take place when one self-important person demands to be the centre of attention against the will and interest of everyone else present, and it goes against the entire basis of 4chan and self-moderation in general. There is more than sufficient precedent for the censure of users deliberately attention whoring and being obnoxious to the detriment of the thread or board - just look at people like /a/'s Taiga or /v/'s Lanced Jack.

"Just stop talking about it" is not a sufficient response, because we both know it won't happen - particularly because the person in question intentionally posts in such away to *make* himself obnoxious to the rest of the board and thereby the centre of attention.

>>2369907
>replying to him

>>2369908
Agreed. Some users just can't be simply ignored, and honestly it defeats the whole purpose of this being an anonymous board.
I'm really sick of SHiN's antics, we used to have decent generals once upon a time but now at least half thread is dedicated to him, be it either people complaining about his attention whoring or SHiN himself.

What's going on with Queen's Blade? Didn't it get rebooted recently?

I will post this in every general thread until Bocchi gets an anime. I remember the days when I didn't have to worry about this general thread nonsense, I sure hope we can go back to that someday.

>>2369692
This is never going to end until there is a solution. Ignoring the problem is not a solution. I, and presumably many other users, have had SHIN filtered for months and yet, somehow, threads keep getting derailed with hundreds of posts about meta shit.

It is true that there is no rule governing thread creation. But there are a lot of things that don't actually have rules but are enforced anyway, like how a recent 4chan cup thread was deleted. The reason rules like global rule 6 (the quality of posts rule) exist is LITERALLY just to let the mods be justified in deleting anything they want. And I don't mean that in a bad way, it is clearly there to allow unspoken rules to be enforced so you don't have to update the rules constantly. It's an incredibly useful tool that exists for situations like this.

Your advice to simply filter SHIN, in addition to how I already mentioned that not stopping threads from being derailed, does not stop him from making threads and forcing us to go to them because any alternative thread that is made will be deleted. Ignoring the cancer only works if you can actually ignore it.

In an ideal situation >>2369772 is how things would go down. But when people like SHIN (and the people who try to beat SHIN) have agendas, they bend and break unspoken rules for some bullshit reason and in doing so when they are not punished those rules cease to exist and common courtesy and sense go with them. Even without all this day-to-day meta bullshit and whining about SHIN that has been going on for months, the quality of discussion will be permanently lowered, and on top of that faith in janitors/mods drops sharply as demonstrated by this thread. At the very least any remaining goodwill I had for whoever you are disappeared when I saw a reasonable post like >>2369771 was deleted.

And if you think SHIN is innocent in this, he is clearly aware of the effects of his posts but continues to make them anyway. If he actually cared, he would stop.

>>2369962
Well said.

>>2369962
>reasonable post like >>2369771 (Dead) was deleted.
That wasn't a reasonable post. It was a biased post. There were Anons making Generals using Love Live pictures or make posts with Love Live pictures in generals and somehow they're the exceptions? If an Anon made a general featuring a series that has its own threads, you won't bat an eye. But a thread with Aikatsu pics? It's a heinous crime somehow.

>>2369971
It's almost as if isolated pictures and posts are different to one person consistently doing it for attention or something.

Apparently, discussing namefags is more interesting than discussing yuri. Sasuga /u/.

>>2369971
I rarely see huge numbers of Love Live pics being posted in these threads for no reason. Nor entire Love Live doujins being dumped for no reason.

I don't want to discuss this stuff but I've realized it isn't going to get better unless it is discussed. Every time I talk about this shit I want it to be the last time, but it keeps happening because nothing changes.

I hope we come to some sort of conclusion before the new season at least.

Any rule made to enforce thread content is going to be detrimental to the overall quality of the board. It would turn /u/ into /ug/, where rather than /u/ being a community as a whole, each thread would instead be a smaller community of it's own. The board is already split between west and east. I don't see how further balkanising /u/ would bring any benefit to anyone. Calling for more rules and more strict enforcement is not going to help. For example, in the catalog there are two LoveLive threads. One is the general and the other is for a pairing. If the mods were to police what content goes in what thread, this situation wouldn't be allowed.
What I'm saying is don't jump into a long term solution for a short term problem.

>>2370005
>The board is already split between west and east.
What? Outside of a loud vocal minority, how is that close to being true?

>>2370005
It's hilariously short-sighted of people who are whining to the mods to get rid of posts for such tenuous reasons, that could easily be applied to remove tons of posts (including theirs) that might be "annoying" or "attention whoring" or "clutter" to someone else.

>>2370011
There are very few people who spew the same advertising/avatar/waifu posting shit for months straight and derail threads constantly while spamming to get an early OP, I don't think we have to worry too much if we remove one of them. Something something slippery slope fallacy.

>>2370005
What the hell are you talking about? "Unity" is not even a concern when the problem is a terrorist figuratively holding these threads hostage until we meet his demands.

>>2370015
Yep, he's holding the thread hostage by making a new OP (something that would happen anyway) with an Aikatsu image (which you don't have to look at) and then sometimes (gasp) posting inside the thread, too. Horrific. How can we cope?

Can you fucks sage?

>>2370020
Yes, posting with Aikatsu pics while begging everybody to go to his thread or else he'll dump more pics and sometimes entire doujins.

>>2370005
>If the mods were to police what content goes in what thread, this situation wouldn't be allowed.

It's not what is allowed in a thread, it's what isn't allowed. This is the thread for miscellaneous discussion of series or concepts that don't merit their own thread, as the OP copypasta very clearly states. Dumping images and advertising doujins of series that have their own threads and nobody here is interested in discussing barring the person consistently spamming them is just as off-topic for this thread as demanding the Izetta thread talk about Euphonium doujins.

I would say a far worse "short-term solution to long-term problem" slippery slope that it doesn't matter what the thread is actually for, anyone is free to fill it with whatever pet project they like.

>>2370011
Except the problem is consistency of behavior. Nobody is asking for robotic enforcement of thread topics, we're asking for enforcement against one user who has deliberately attention-whored on a consistent theme for extended periods of time while being fully aware that no-one else is interested. It's like saying we can't prosecute vandalism because then we'd have to lock up everyone who drops a crisp wrapper.

>>2370020
Posting large amounts of irrelevant links and images that don't belong in this thread, in a deliberately obnoxious way designed to get people to talk about him and derail actual discussions. It doesn't matter how many times you insist we "don't have to look at" it - we have to deal with threads consistently being derailed by one massive attention whore, a situation we go to places like 4chan EXACTLY to avoid. It doesn't happen in parallel to the intended purpose of the thread, it happens instead of it. Filters and ignore buttons aren't what has replaced self-moderation - smug idiots sitting back and insisting that everyone should just ignore a problem poster while knowing full well that enough people won't to allow the thread to become completely useless are.

>>2370020
If you want proof that SHIN is a negative influence on these threads all you have to do is look up. Apparently we cannot cope, since this has been happening in varying degrees for quite some time, which is why the "just filter him" turned into "holy shit why he is not banned yet".

And he won't stop being this influence on threads unless people go to his personal pet thread and post constantly.

>>2370032
>>2370034
I agree with you in the sense that, as you're practically admitting here, you clearly don't have the willpower to just ignore SHiN, which is exactly what one should do to an attention whore, and you need the mods to save you from yourselves by removing him.

>>2370039
Glad you finally get it.

>>2370039
Thank you for putting words in my mouth, but no. I ignore his posts, but that's not important - no matter what you say, enough people won't that I have to deal with consistently derailed threads anyway. You know that, I know that, and SHiN knows that, which is why he keeps deliberately provoking it in order to continue being the centre of attention. There is absolutely no reason to tolerate this kind of persistent attentionwhoring, done deliberately and uncaring to the massive and obvious detriment of the board - particularly, as I have already said, when it is *outright off-topic* for the thread he keeps doing it in.

>>2370039
You're missing the point. Even if half of us filtered SHIN, the other half would not and would talk about him and derail threads. And like >>2370032 mentioned, that type of discussion disallows other discussions, as demonstrated by how we have failed to actually discuss almost anything this thread is meant to discuss thus far despite not lacking in available topics (new season of anime soon being a big one, and a few announcements).

Even now, you yourself are talking about SHIN despite presumably having him filtered and/or ignoring him.

Simply ignoring the cancer does not make it go away. "Ignore" is only half of "Ignore and report" for a reason.

>>2370039
If you ignore him he'll just spam until sometime inevitably gives him the attention he wants.

Dudes please sage. Don't tangentially help those you hate by pushing this to the front page.
>buh it doesn't work
If you have eyes and notice anything in the catalog, you'd catch that it does work. Our board is slow enough that it has a noticeable effect when you sage.

>>2370045
>>2370046
Yes, I see. Not everyone is ignoring it, and it's sadly unrealistic to expect they will. And that's why there's no such thing as self-moderation (and never was). People who think they're self-moderating just respond to the cancer and heap fuel onto the fire.

The 100+ posts of this thread so far shows that not only can people not ignore one insignificant attention whore, they can sustain entire threads arguing about them without their even being present.

>>2370050
I think everybody knows sage works, if they even still know what it is.

>>2370051
>they can sustain entire threads arguing about them without their even being present.
Also the fact that the mods basically said "you're on your own" with them.

>>2370051

> People who think they're self-moderating just respond to the cancer and heap fuel onto the fire.
That's not true. It would be fine if all that happened was the board telling an awful poster to fuck off, then moving on, and he either fucks off or eventually gets banned or warned for being awful. What sustains the argument is the portion of it that then starts a new fight with THOSE people about how he'll totally fuck off by himself if we just magically stopped the entire board from telling him to fuck off.

>The 100+ posts of this thread so far shows that not only can people not ignore one insignificant attention whore, they can sustain entire threads arguing about them without their even being present.
Yeah, it's not as if this was kicked off by a mod coming and saying "No, I don't consider off-topic attention whoring a problem. Who needs rules or standards when you can just ignore everything?".

Should we just submit the issue to Hiro?

>>2370057
>and he either fucks off
What fantasy land do you live in where people get told to fuck off and do so, on 4chan?

>or eventually gets banned or warned for being awful
So... not self-moderation.

>>2370068
Do you really think he'll do anything about it? What has he actually done to improve this site since he took over? The guy can barely even understand English.

>>2370068
No, but the mod should have auto-saged this thread before leaving.

fucking go outside and play with a ball or something, you're taking this shit way too seriously. Either use the feedback function or shut up about this shit already.

>>2370071
He can understand English perfectly in his professional correspondance. The "cute bemused Japanese guy" is an act to allow him to ignore or misunderstand complaints.

>>2370070
>What fantasy land do you live in where people get told to fuck off and do so, on 4chan?
This one. It won't affect a persistent and deliberate shitposter, but it absolutely dissuades someone making a stupid, ill-informed or otherwise inappropriate post when they're immediately dogpiled and told to fuck off rather than passively tolerated and allowed to think their behaviour is welcome. Someone deliberating out for attention from the start is another story, but even then, the action taken would be taken taking into account the board's issues with them and their effect on the board.

>>2370083
Load of horse shit. Saying "fuck off" to some first-time poster making a request thread might have an effect, but literally nothing beyond that. And that poster would get banned anyway due to actually breaking a rule and the fact that there are actual mods, not because of "self-moderation."

>>2370084
>there are actual mods
If there were, this thread wouldn't exist and we wouldn't be having these problems.

>>2370083
>He can understand English perfectly in his professional correspondance. The "cute bemused Japanese guy" is an act to allow him to ignore or misunderstand complaints.
You've probably never heard of the concept of having someone proof-read your shit

Please, stop metaposting. You're part of the problem. I can filter out SHiN no issue but I can't filter out dumb manchildren like you.

>>2370084
That's not true. Self-moderation enforces any number of written or unwritten standards ranging from not posting with emoticons to not linking clickbait.

>>2370095
>not posting with emoticons
Oh man, this is classic. What actually happens when someone tells an emoticon poster to fuck off is that five more emoticon posts get added to the thread; one from the person who posted in the first place, and four more from anons trolling the autist who called it out.

>>2370103
Yeah, just look at all of the emoticons in here. The thread's full of them. Clearly all moderation against them has failed.

Wait, no, there aren't any, because it's established by the users as not appropriate to 4chan whenever someone does. And that's just /u/, which tends to be one of the boards more aloof to most of the other boards ideas of "standards" - as your very own "autist who called it out" charatcerization demonstrates. Try posting seriously with them somewhere like /a/ and see how far you get.

>>2370108
The reason emoticons are uncommon on 4chan is because anybody who comes to any new websites adapts to the posting style there. It has nothing to do with the hilarious notion that 4chan is some serious scary place that scares new users into acting a certain way. Your neurotic obsession with the tiny minority of people who post for the first time and don't know what they're doing is laughable.

Also, certain emoticons get used all the time on /a/ because they're part of the latest posting style that gradually overtakes the whole website, and there's nothing you can do about it. :^)

>see how far you get
The way you keep saying things like this speaks to your deep delusion about the direct power you think you have by insulting somebody's post on 4chan.

>>2370112
>The reason emoticons are uncommon on 4chan is because anybody who comes to any new websites adapts to the posting style there.
And part of that process is the fact that posting according to the etiquette gets positive replies and posting against it gets no useful responses and insulting image macros.

> It has nothing to do with the hilarious notion that 4chan is some serious scary place that scares new users into acting a certain way.
It's not about being "serious" or "scary", it's about simple positive and negative reinforcement. Denying it is denying basic psychology.

>The way you keep saying things like this speaks to your deep delusion about the direct power you think you have by insulting somebody's post on 4chan.
No, it really doesn't. Again, I'm not talking about someone deliberately using them to agitate and attention-whore. I'm talking about trying to use them as a serious poster, trying to engage in a discussion using emoticons as part of your posting style.

>>2370116
99% of new posters: "I don't see any emoticons here, I guess I'll post like that"
0.9% of new posters: "I'm gonna post with emoticons lol xD"
0.1% of new posters: "oh fuck a couple of people posted insulting image macros at me, I guess I better stop using emoticons!"

Kakegurui has an actual yuri asc aside from all the tease, but it seems late in the manga and I don't know if the anime will get to it.

Does it really?

I thought thay the eyepatch girl was yuri related with the president but then she immediately goes for the loser beta male MC and wants to do it with him too as some idiocy to make him relevant.
Yumeko x Mary pretty much is a dead ship since Mary is quite tsun and blushy for the male MC and the said male MC starts having feelings for Yumeko later in game, similiar Yumeko starts to care about him even morebut for now that is not romantic kind but might be revealed to be like that later.

Kinda hard to pinpoint the yuri in this aside of few yuribaiting moments that go nowhere.

>>2370596
Otokonoko basically means trap or crossdressing boy.

>>2370599
So basically it's whether or not the male is more intrusive than, say, the crossdresser from Sasameki Koto who had a crush on the MC but never stood a chance. The fact that this one's a main character probably doesn't sell it well.

>>2370622
Where did you read it? Can't be worse than yuri danshi.

>>2370625
He has a crush on the MC and doesn't stand a chance, but for people who see otokonoko as a potential problem, I would say it's a series that they ought to just avoid, whereas I wouldn't go that far with Sasameki Koto.

Those two are the prince(female) characters. Prince Prince is about them becoming a couple.

That's less "paranoid" and more "what are you even talking about?". How on earth do you know whose point of view the first scene is from, and why fixate on one particular half-second glimpse of a male NPC when the trailer has already shown plenty? This is pure victim complex.

>>2370729
Because it wouldn't be the first time?
There's a lot of male characters, anyway. There's yet no reason to believe it'll be yuri relevant. Also the staff is shitty.

The anime is being made together with a mobage, most of those come with a self insert male protagonist. It doesn't help that the show has five girls, but none of them is defined as the protagonist.

Also, since when something written by the guy who created Code Geass and Kabaneri has Yuri potential?

>>2370796

Disliking male characters in general is fundamentally stupid. You should hate the authors that make the awful characters rather than the characters themselves. NTR Trap wouldn't magically become better if both the male characters were suddenly replaced with girls.

All I see is the statement of facts. Hack writer, presence of male potential love interests, lack of evidence proving they will NOT be love interests, side mobage, those are all facts.

Saying it's definitely yuri is Mugino. Saying it's not yuri is realistic. Take your choice.

>>2370824

>presence of male potential love interests
No, this is delusion, unless your definition of "male potential love interest" is just "male". There are both male and female support characters, and exclusively female main characters. "B-but what if it's all a trick?" is sheer, barrel-scraping groping for something to feel victimized by, in a very "pleading innocent is exactly what a guilty man WOULD do!" kind of way.

>lack of evidence proving they will NOT be love interests
You demand proof of a negative and claim not to be delusional.

>side mobage
Please, tell me more about Kirara's male protagonist. Or Symphogear's. Or Madoka's. Or Yuyuyu's.

>Saying it's definitely yuri is Mugino. Saying it's not yuri is realistic.

And saying it's likely to have a male protagonist is opposite but equal to Mugino's delusions.

>Which het haremshit was described?
Hmm. Sounds a lot like Symphogear, but I can't discount the possibility you're talking about Nanoha, or maybe something like Canaan or El Cazador. Then again, it could be Mai Hime, or perhaps Izetta. Yeah, you're right, if a show has any male presence at all, even if it's just a single shot with one nondescript guy in, we pretty much already know it's a straight harem with him as the lead.

>>2370823
Not really. It was claimed that the show would likely have a male protagonist, and the basis of that was revealed to be the fact that the trailer had male characters in it - not given any focus in or anything, just existing for half a second.

>>2370803
I don't hate male characters. Some are even fun.
I hate male protagonists, though. Those should all die.

>>2370829
Then you wouldn't be reading NTR at all.

>Girl cheating on their girlfriend with a man = best yuri series ever
>Girl cheating on boyfriend with girl = het

What /u/ actually thinks
Remember when /u/ was all over Maka Maka and anyone who metioned that the MCs had boyfriends they actually liked was the devil?

I'm beginning to think it has nothing to do with men in he story and that /u/ just has an irrational hatred of all things Kodama Naoko

>>2370833
>Please, tell me more about Kirara's male protagonist. Or Symphogear's. Or Madoka's. Or Yuyuyu's.

Not the same thing as those aren't games planned together with the show. At least use Bang Dream as example. And that's the exception, actually.

>Hmm. Sounds a lot like Symphogear, but I can't discount the possibility you're talking about Nanoha, or maybe something like Canaan or El Cazador.

Yeah, you're right, if a show has any male presence at all, even if it's just a single shot with one nondescript guy in, we pretty much already know it's a straight harem with him as the lead.

Mai-Hime is het as fuck. One side yuri couple won't change that. All those other shows made pretty clear their yuri leanings in all PVs, something that didn't happen here.

>It was claimed that the show would likely have a male protagonist

Can you read? Saying the show has a chance of having a male protagonist isn't the same as saying it'll likely have one.
Want me to rephrase, then? There's not evidence in PV, characters descriptions or synopses that this show might be the least relevant for /u/ and no evidence at all that it won't be het or have a surprise male character as there's a young man in the first PV still no listed in the website. Sure, he could be a one episode guy, and maybe he will, but the possibility is there.
Even if there's not relevant male at all, there's few yuri potential. And the possibility of a male self insert in the game that will romance the girls is pretty high because that's how most mobage that aren't about idols or based on a established series are all about.

Is it better now?

>>2370838
Funnily enough I do actually remember that about Maka Maka. Though I think your example is something of a false equivalence, since I'm assuming you're referring to Octave in the first case, where the cheating is one arc of a long manga which is about the yuri relationship, whereas NTR is based solely around them cheating on their boyfriends, with actually fuck all interaction between them a lot of the time.

>>2370830
You can either be feel positive, negative, or neutral about something (or feel nothing, if you had no idea that it even existed). If someone was neutral about male characters, they wouldn't care whether a series had them or not. By process of elimination, they can only have negative feelings left. Mind you, it might not be a large feeling of negativity (a mild annoyance compared to outright hatred) but it's still negative.

>>2370834
Again, it's bad authors making bad characters. Or are you going to say that every male MC ever made is terrible?

>>2370845
>Or are you going to say that every male MC ever made is terrible?

I like some, by I hate male protagonists by principle. How could I say it? I hate that they're the standard when someone thinks about something. I mainly hate how 90% of videogames want to force me to play as one.

I think if things were more 50/50 between male and female protagonists, I wouldn't really hate them.

>>2370844
Point stands that /u/ (or rather a vocal minority of /u/) seems to specifically have it out for Kodama in particular when other mangaka get away with crossing more lines than her.

>>2370840
>All those other shows made pretty clear their yuri leanings in all PVs, something that didn't happen here.

Yes, I'm sure if Canaan were airing soon, you wouldn't be telling us not to bother because there are male characters - actual characters, mind, not just a random mob character who I genuinely have no clue why you're fixated on - and even a male voiceover. And frankly, if your system tells us that Mai Hime wouldn't be of any interest to this board, then your system is a piece of shit.

>Saying the show has a chance of having a male protagonist isn't the same as saying it'll likely have one.
There's a "chance" of everything. What there isn't is a "good chance".

But I suppose there's nothing to be said to someone who demands the right to feel a victim.

>>2370850
Never watched Canaan. And only recently watched Mai Hime. Look like shows you could only expect yuri after they were airing.
I'm pretty sure /u/ burned itself with het shows way more than those two exceptions, though.

Point is, there's 0 reason to expect yuri from something that doesn't even look like yuri before it's even out.

>>2370848
I'm sure it is just a vocal minority, but what other serialised yuri manga that's getting an anime features an MC that's also fucking a dude on the regular? I like some of Kodama's other work, but I'm coming to the conclusion that NTR deserves whatever shit it gets.

>>2370852
Anon, there isn't any other yuri manga getting anime aside from NTR and Citrus.

>>2370796
>Also, since when something written by the guy who created Code Geass and Kabaneri has Yuri potential?

Wasn't there that girl who shlicked to the thought of the princess in Code Geass? And Kabaneri had the main heroine hit on another girl for blood, who not long after that gave it to her and they started hanging out.

Not that either of those were particularly focused on but still.

I just spent an hour looking for the kabaneri webm splicing those scenes together fuck

>>2370855
They became friends in Kabaneri, yeah. But nothing yuri. What it did had was het love triangle.
I also don't feel like a guy who can't write a strong female that doesn't need the cool male protagonist to save her will ever be relevant to /u/.

>>2370848

>>2370894
So now you're basically admitting that it's the fact you don't like Kodama's writing and it's got nothing to do with relationships with male characters

Because that's literally the one defense Octave apologists keep falling back on "it's sooo realistic that a lesbian fucked a dude. Most lesbians don't even know their lesbian. Such a flawed and relatable character"
Meanwhile in NTR threads: "male characters? Context doesn't matter, it's Hetshit! Doesn't matter that Yuma is confused and has been jerked around by Hotaru. Doesn't matter that she's never been aroused by Takeda, but one touch from Hotaru make her wet. It's Het!!!!"

Were surprises. Izetta had more than its fair share of close calls and Nanoha was a spinoff from a het game series. Hell, Nanoha herself was straight for Crono in that game, so it stands to reason if the Nanoha anime was announced today we'd discard it.

>Mai-HiME
Are you serious, m8?

>>2370898
>octave apologists
This is hilarious coming from an unabashed ntr apologist

>>2370898
>literally the one defense
Yeah, except it's not tho. Also, is your best defense of NTR really to tear down another manga which is completely different other than there's some het antics at some point?

>>2370881
>>2370898
Also, where are you even pulling these quotes from? Because I'm the anon who usually says that about Octave, but I'm not exactly screaming that NTR is terrible hetshit. Actually, I rarely say anything about NTR at all. It's enjoyable melodrama, but that's about it. I also completely agree that Yuma's clearly an enormous dyke who's being jerked around by Hotarun. Mostly I'm just bored because the series seems to be one step forward and two steps back the entire time.

Time for a new thread.

>>2370909
Hey, you should really do suicide. I mean don't consider it. Actually do it.

>>2370904
But it's okay to tear NTR down because you don't like it? Hypocrite.
>>2370908
Yours is just one of the defenses I've cited. There's a lot of hypocritical things that other anons have used to defend Octave that would be unforgivable in any series running in a yuri magazine

>>2370916
I never realised it was hypocritical to judge stories differently based on their individual merits before.

>>2370916
I'm tearing it because it's a fucking soap opera masquerading as something it isn't. Telemundo and Brazilian Telenovellas do it better, though Kdramas are slowly creeping into that territory. The closest the genre has ever come to having a board appropriate show was a live action show in the oughts.

>>2370922
Your opinion of a series is subjective. To judge something on "individual merits" is to judge it on personal bias.

If Kodama had written Octave you probably would have hated it because you hate her style. That is your personal bias.

>>2370924
Everyone is biased. Also, I don't hate her style. Had she written Octave exactly as it happened, Yukino fucks up a lot, Setsuko fucks up some, they talk about shit and move past it I would probably still love it as much as I do. If anything, I rather her style to that of Octave's author. But she probably wouldn't have because she, like most authors, seems to default to the "drama happens because people are incapable of actually talking to each other about shit" school of writing. In which case it wouldn't be Octave as it exists today, so really that was sort of a pointless point to make?

>>2370910
Maybe someday. In the meantime you should get a sense of humor.

Reported so hard my reporting hand (right, fyi) gained a life of its own, clicking my mouse rapidly for 3 hours straight with such a tenacity it became clear arthiritis was the least of my worries, so clear was it that I could lose MY ENTIRE HAND to this bizarre possession. Suddenly my mouse smashed through my floor, pulling down my report hand as a hapless hostage. Smoke filled my bedroom and I woke up god knows how many hours later in a small village south of Aokigahara.

The people of this modest commune emerged slowly from their shacks, all of them viewing me with what I can only describe as suspicion mixed with awe. Suddenly they began throwing spears into the air and running towards me. I SHAT BRICKS, but then they GRABBED ME and LUNGED ME INTO THE AIR, praising my name and kissing me. The chieftan came down later and over a feast-for-one explained I was to be crowned The Chosen One, the Kamisama of Reporting foretold in Nihonese folklore to appear in the year 2012. At this moment an old Japanese woman - she must've been 85 years old at least - began doing some kind of dance, spinning around in circles whilst singing "Sorairo Days" and throwing confetti into the air. I was DOWN with this state of affairs, let me tell you.

For 300 years I trained with the chieftan in her private dojo, reporting Mugino posts, every day becoming quicker. At first I could report 10 posts per minute. After only 2 weeks I was up to 5 posts per second. After a century my MPPM (Mugino post per minute) rate rose to and stalled at 200 per second.

On the last day she graced our planet, my sensei bestowed one last task to me: the reporting of this post, the shittest of all shit posts.

I did not respond with words. Rather, through our eyes she knew I would obey.

Page five, maybe. If we were a faster board but fucking newfags that can't lurk can't piece it in their goddamn skull to use the search function. Despite this fuck show of a thread, the previous one was made nicely and simply at when the previous one was at page 8. No arguments, everything was wonderful and the thread took a while. Fucking get some patience so the anger leaves you and by the time it does it'll be a good time for a new one.

Shame on you.

I picked Susu cause it thought I would get a bonus for my high hp stonewall Susu Platinum. Turns out all you get is a different Solo gacha ticket.

It's been deleted.
Was it because it was made early? That would contradict what the mod said in this thread. I just don't fucking know anymore.

>>2371046
It was deleted because:
1_ this thread can still be used.
Or
2_ that thread wasn't made by an attention whore that signs the mods' checks.

Pick one?

You just get x2 bonus points in the event if you have her in your team.

I've never gotten solo gacha tickets. I know you can get them from completing episodes but I haven't done any that can reward these. How do they work? After getting the ticket you unlock paid gacha for that character for 24 hours?

You forgot: 3_has a guy in OP and 4_ Is /vg/ shite that doesn't belong here cause of /4cc/ rules
But you do your bitterness

>>2371068
If /u/ mods/jannies truly deleted /vg/ shit they would have deleted this >>2370751 and all the replies it got already. But they're still there.

>>2371068
Wait, I thought it was a legit thread with a legit image.

>>2371078
Cool example. Bugs you so much report it.
