Chidori had Kacchon for years, and spent the entire time acting like his Mum and asking herself why he isn't telling her she loves him because of it.

Noriko came and saved Kacchon from being an emotionless shell and in the process fell in love with him.
Considering all that Noriko has done for Kacchon and all that Chidori has failed to do, it's pretty obvious who he deserves.

>>142143409

Of course not, but Kiznaiver needs some sort of twist (or something at all) to redeem itself, because as it stands now, it's a disgrace to the studio.

>Is everybody in the cast going to turn into emotionally hollow muppets during the ending?

That actually would.

Either that or:
>Kacchon finally develops feelings for Chidori only to get cucked by Tenga, causing Nico to flip out and hate Kacchon (because if he'd only returned Chidori's feelings earlier, then she'd have had a chance with Tenga).

They've had the potential there to create some real heavy drama since a couple of episodes in, but instead there has been just... nothing.

>>142143629
Okada's pretty self-aware in this one though. Not only are the characters based on your typical anime stereotypes, but the scene at the start of today's episode where Noriko can't understand how Kacchon could be disgusted with her when she's acting like an otaku's wet dream.

It's a drama about building relationships. That scene wasn't pointing out Okada's ships, it's pointing out the characters ships. It's setting up the current shitstorm that demonstrates how meaningful relationships can't be achieved in such a shallow way.

The only moment I genuinely liked Kacchon was when he jumped down the pedestrian bridge like a jackass.
I mean holy shit.

Even god damn Tanaka, someone even more one note at first glance than the autist manages to be entertaining. Entertaining by himself and with the characters around him.

>>142144099
To be honest after the few first episodes Kacchon doesn't even feel like a main character at all, the show is focusing on other characters as much as him.

Hell, in Maki's 2 episodes he barely got any screentime.

>and that if you want to know and help someone you have to make an effort, not just wait till they spill their sobstory at you.
And the entire plot revolving around everyone helping the MC for no reason and him not reciprocating that help shows that how?

>>142144246
You just posted the two ships that aren't going to happen, and that's because they are shallow anime relationships.

Kacchon has been putting the hard yards in for pretty much everyone. There's been at least half a dozen moments where everyone's sighing on his couch before Kacchon says something insightful that directs them for the next half of the episode.

>>142144246
>Except for Chidori liking the MC because we're told he apparently used to be kind and funny. TOLD. And Nico literally liking Tenga because he's kind.
It's almost like those relationships are being depicted as flawed relationships or something. You know, exactly like anon said.

It still hasn't shown its full hand as a series and it still holds the potential for juicy drama to unfold, provided that the writer decides to finally make the leap and let the relationships between the characters change in any way.

>>142144296
>what is good drama then?
'Hourou Musuko' and 'Koi Kaze' each take a different taboo theme and apply it to some very realistic characters and let drama unfold naturally from there. That's one way of producing good drama.

Was this anime not supposed to have some kind of battles?

>>142144472
>provided that the writer decides to finally make the leap and let the relationships between the characters change in any way.
On top of this being flat out wrong you aren't even watching the fucking show anymore so how can you claim that?

We ever going to see any parents of the kids in this series? Seriously it makes you wonder why they took the notion of them interacting with their parents completely out. Hell there is barely any interaction with any adults in this series.

Hopefully autismo will die next week and tenga will give chidori all the love she deserves

God I love this director. At various points in the anime, I've had times where I was just awed at how good the visual direction is and how they handle the soundtrack. It makes everything so much more vivid and impactful.

But then a minute later I remember that it's still Okada writing it.

Not best boy.

>>142144621
For starters, taking a step back from the Okada bashing, why don't we look at shows she's previously worked on?

Hanairo and the first season of WIXOSS. Far superior drama to the insipid tripe she's done with Kiznaiver.

>>142144583
Okay, but how does them having unrequited loves mean that the relationships aren't developing? Just because they aren't changing in a certain direction doesn't mean they aren't changing.

>>142144700

Anything else she worked on that is more...popular?

>>142144700
Wixoss was great, but the drama wasn't about character interactions, it was about how your own goals and dreams affect the people around you. It's a completely different piece of work.

>>142144700
>Far superior drama to the insipid tripe she's done with Kiznaiver.

Underwhelming. It was okay I guess. Wasn't a huge fan. Mary Sues and over-reliance on plot contrivances don't make for interesting romances, even if the lead was a good take on the tsundere archetype.

The only one who has less red than Hisomu in that graph is Autismo. Of course.

>>142144756
What? You want me to mention the garbage she did with Anohana?

Because as far as originals go, Hanairo is her most well-known and widely accepted best written work.

I've really enjoyed the way in which Subaru keeps acquiring new information that furthers the plot in spite of the time loops. The constant changing of Subaru's character has allowed Re:Zero to have faster pacing than Kiznaiver even when its plot isn't technically progressing.

Everyone thought the focus would be on Tenga but ep8 had very little of him and he didn't do anything relevant.

Nips said ep9 was the most intense. Indeed, next episode Tenga murders MC because of Chidori or something like that. That's the real deal.

It really isn't. Chidori is a friend of Tenga plus someone he likes but won't chase for respect of both her and Katsuhira feelings. Next episode he gets to know that not only Katsuhira is ignoring her feelings and treating her like shit but how pained by all of this she is too.

Seems reasonable enough to be mad.

He's not, as far as Chidori is concerned. Dude, have you been watching the show at all? He's not as chill as he appears to be and will need to release his bottled up feelings at some point.

>>142145628

>>142145355
>I can't be your friend
Spoiling such a scene in a trailer would be fucking lame though. Either it's a sentence leading up to a different outcome, like accepting his feelings for example, or they spoiled the outcome of two characters' arcs already, which would be retarded.

>>142145646
>I doubt he even knows she likes him
Watch the end of episode 2 and the start of episode 3 again if you have any doubts. He knows it and acknowledges it, then the following episode tells her he doesn't want to 'remember anything unnecessary' i.e. doesn't want to do anything that'll change up their relationship.

Pain of getting rejected/having one-sided feelings for all?

>>142145628
He never lead her on. Kacchon isn't even capable of leading someone on. He has shown that he thinks of her as just a friend at every point.
It's like the equivalent of a guy hovering around a girl he built a friendship with and expecting that she's come around one day by just continuing that friendship.

How would this fix Kiznaiver? All this would bring is another side character that won't appear as much as she is not in the Kiznaiver program.

>>142145675
FOR HIM such a reaction is justified because he cares about Chidori's feelings more and MC can't communicate his side of the story for shit. It's entirely in-character for Tenga to get mad.

But speaking from a neutral standpoint, picking a fight is not justified at all.

>>142145774
>It's like the equivalent of a guy hovering around a girl he built a friendship with and expecting that she's come around one day by just continuing that friendship.
It's like the equivalent of that girl never properly rejecting him and only ever unconsciously stringing him along.

Like do you think it's fine to walk away without saying a word in the middle of your childhood friend's confession?

You're forgetting Tenga can feel all of that and it's normal he won't be ok with it at all.

If Kacchon's also in the first Kiznaiver program, I wonder what happened to his scar. It can't be healed completely, if Sonozaki still has hers.

This current program and the one next to it, for those two delinquents, have the scars at the same place across the multiple participants. Could it be that the kids in the Kiznaiver program that younger Katsuhira is in had their scars at different places?

Wot. You're either an autist or have a cognitive disorder related to that. Seek help anon.

>>142145987
That and he sees the two of them in a romantic moment. Now imagine being her and seeing the guy you were just trying to confess to immediately walk away like he wasn't even listening to you just run into the arms of some unknown woman and even having a tender moment you never got from him despite knowing him for years. The only way it could get worse is she asked about Chidori and he replied that she doesn't matter right now or that he never felt like that way about her at all.

Through to be honest, Chidori isn't blameless, she had her window of opprertunity and blew it back in episode 2 and naively thinking that waiting around and doting on the audist in hopes that he'd just magically turn back into that happy boy she crushed on is something that only happens in manga. Basically she made the mistake all non-winning childhood friends make, not making her feelings known before some new bitch comes and fucks things up.

>>142146149
I guess Tenga fell into a trap, he's kinda clueless. He probably thought there was a chance for Autismo to requite Chidori's feelings, that with Autismo's actions in episode 2 and 5.

Comes out Tenga was wrong and Autismo's baggage with Autisma is just too much.

If he thought Autismo was a hopeless case form the start, he should've just made a move on Chidori himself since he cares for her so much.

>But doesn't Yuta do the same?
She's leading him on, what with her warming up to him and this smiling thing.

Witch! Seductress! Stealer of men!

It's not even a polygon. It's just a train.

>>142146382
Yeah and then problem is that everyone acts as autistic as the MC when it comes to romantic stuff. This is starting to get a bit overwhelming. Hopefully next week's episode will clear up at least some of these misunderstandings.

>>142146486
It's not funny when people really do think that.

I hope they can all resolve this romantic drama conclusively and return to be good friends.

>>142146503
Yeah. It's just a train because it doesn't loop itself back.

Nico -> Tenga -> Chidori -> Katsuhira -> Sonozaki.

If Sonozaki is gay for Nico then that's a polygon.

Tell me this woman and the green-haired teacher is fucking.

>>142146651
I was under the impression that she wants a piece of the Autisma.

>>142146708
Fucking lesbians, ruining my shipping.

>>142144979
Nico. Okada is going to destroy her.
>No friends
>No love
>nothing

>>142146862
I hope it's true, I hate Nico

>>142146925
Fug you, loser. Nico a cute and best.

>>142146925
I don't hate her, but if she ends up winning the Tengabowl over Chidori, I will be mad

>>142146862
Please no ;_;

>>142146651
their chemistry is great, they're so fun to watch together

I would be pretty happy with a friendship end.

>>142146598
>Nico -> Tenga -> Chidori -> Katsuhira -> Sonozaki -> Yuta -> Maki -> Nico
There done.

Inb4 Okada plays us and ships Maki with Nico.

How would you feel if this happened next episode?

>>142146983
teach me how to get out of this shipping mess. I can't stop shipping

>That was so miserable
>Nico is so cute
>Tenga is an idiot
>still don't know what's Hisomu's purpose
>Chidori-chan （ ; ω ; ）
>Kacchon you bastard...
>Honoka and Yuta stay the same

I know no ship will survive by the end of this but this is the best case scenario:

>Nico/Maki (Ruru 2.0, muh bffs)
>Hisomu/Yuta (muh bishounen genes)
>Tenga/Chidori (self-explanatory)
>Autists (self-explanatory)

There, all drama nullified.

Anyone else think Nico probably has a huge bush?

>>142147082
I wish they'd considered a friendship end.

>>142147149
What makes you think they didn't? It's still very possible.

>>142147076
>Kacchon you bastard...

Probably treated Chidori really badly over something which will be Tenga's actual reason for being mad next episode.

>>142146598
Nico likes Tenga, who likes Chidori, who likes Kacchon, who likes Nori-chan

No one gives two shits about Nico.
Being a brainless moeblob is suffering. Remember kids, pretending to be retarded can backfire

>>142147149
This will have a friendship end.

I wonder just how contrived it's gonna feel after the "love arc" though.

>>142147208
I won't trust what anyone says until I see it myself because of all the shipping.

>>142147208
Maybe Tenga feels some intense pain from Chidori when she sees real time Noriko and Katsuhira.

I hate the fact that everyone will be hit by Chidori and Nico's pain though.

That's love for you

>>142147310
It's not a maybe, everyone will feel Chidori's pain, then Niko's pain will be felt when she sees just how far Tenga is willing to go for a girl that's not her. So basically, everybody suffers next week. Emotional pain vs Physical pain, I wonder what hurts the most. Now imagine double the Emotional Pain while Tenga is beating the shit out of MC despite how much it hurts. Okada's going all out

>>142147397
Love had the good and bad parts.

Also, not everyone is miserable. Hisomu isn't.

GLORIOUS

>>142147445
>everybody suffers next week
I bet Hisomu'll enjoy that.

Also, I wonder if the teachers foresee this sort of drama coming and whether or not this will further the Kiznaiver program.

>>142147488
Now that their good feelings are transmitted as well, I really want Hisomu to orgasm from getting beat up.

>The way nico panics when Tenga calls her cute

Holy shit that was adorable
Also I might be dense as hell, but when the fuck did she start liking him?
I didn't notice at all.

>>142147132
Well now that you mention it

>>142147558
Of course they will, that's why asshole is going to be showing Chidori the footage on a big screen of what Kachy just ran out on her. emotional abuse so they can study love is within the rights of the kiznaniver project, that's they they are focusing on Chido,Niko,Tenga and Kach while liking Yuta and Maki alone.

>>142142836
I get off on shit like this. Pity there won't be any reverse ntr doujinshi featuring Noriko cucking Katsuhira in front of Chidori. Even better if it's the other way around, Chidori cucking Noriko.

Has Okada written anything good since True Tears?

>>142148166
Hanasaku Iroha?

>>142148164
>Even better if it's the other way around, Chidori cucking Noriko.
^This anon gets it.

>>142148166
Hanairo is the only one that matters.

>luluco destroys Kiznaiver in pre-orders
Well that's about right

>>142147076
>still don't know what's Hisomu's purpose
Hisomo exists for last minute shocking revelation about the previous Kiznaiver experiment.

>>142148166
Almost forgot about Koufuku Graffiti.

>>142148573
Adaptation.

>Nico likes Tenga
Called it
