Is no one else watching YAOTS? I wasn't expecting this show to be this much fun. The constant transition of goofy to kawaii faces isn't as bad as I first thought after 3 episodes.
>>144584975
I saw the first episode and didn't dislike it but wasn't entirely hooked in (at least yet). What do you like about it so far?
>>144584975
Is it /u/?
>>144585225no
>>144585225
Literally bait and switch. As in, bait yuri and switch out for hetero.
dropped it in the middle of the second episode
the fuckers don't even have enough budget to animate faces properly so they just gave them emojis, jesus christ
I still can't get over the fact that fucking Peter Pan just randomly shows up at some point.
>>144585379
Stop it with this weak ass bait. There's no way someone can be this retarded.
>YAOTS
It's not yuri, it's adolescense.
>>144585225
It is what you wan it to be. The surely is the best answer.
So what's the actual joke behind Pikari's name?
>>144585499
All the characters are lesbian though.
But is this more about the Yuri or about actually diving? I want to learn more about that and see if there's real diving problems like Yama Susume finally delivered in S2 about mountain climbing.
just watched all 3 eps today
its like aria with yuri bait, so its great
>>144585806
It's totally about diving, but it takes a while to get going and there's absolutely no stakes.
>>144585806
its SoL, yuri bair with actual diving and diving lessons
>>144585606
A combination of her real name Hikari (means light) and pika (glittering/sparkling ideophone, the same as in Pikachu)
It's NOT yuri.
The girls like men.
>>144586046
Wrong.
>>144585499
Literally this.
Will we get to brown octo-loli within this run?
>>144585806
It's got quite a lot of enjoying diving stuff (and getting over minor difficulties), but also having a good time with clubmates doing other stuff too.
>>144586110
Exactly, just a bunch of pure girls too young to marry a man.
>animeonlyfags
Yurifriends are going to be disappointed later on when they start crushing on guys. Flee while you can.
>>144586154
They get introduced vol 6. End of vol 5 (maybe 4) is a likely stopping point.
>>144586210
It's only nee-chan though. And she crushed on fucking Peter Pan.
>>144586210
>when they start crushing on guys
Never happens. Not that the brown shota thing isn't bad enough.
>>144586103
It's pretty common to have a crush on your friends during high school, it doesn't actually mean you're gay though. This is typical behavior for teenagers.
>>144586510
I don't think that's commom, I never had homoerotic feelings for any of my friends, I didn't have much but still
Is this anything like Aria? I miss Aria
This and Amaama are going to be in a tight race for /a/'s Official and Objective AOTS. Amaama is cute and heartwarming as shit and Pikari is a miracle of the goddamn universe.
I think Teko is just so shy that she gets flustered around Pikari easily due to Pikari being the opposite of shy. That's why she always turns bright red whenever Pikari gets physical or close to her. But you are all misconstruing that as having a crush, which is understandable, but not what I think is going on.
Keep in mind that Japanese people are typically much more private and restrained than we are in the West, so Pikari's behavior could be seen as downright embarrassing by her peers.
Be honest. You tried it, didn't you?
>>144588403
Who doesn't know this from flying air planes?
Shits pretty uncomfortable though
>>144586510
This. I sometimes wonder if half of /a/ even had friends in high school, because it's perfectly normal to have crushes, fool around, experiment, and so on, but it doesn't mean you're gay or anything.
>>144586768
It's better.
>>144588403
How is she supposed to never stop breathing and to do this at the same time?
Also, does anyone know a fun scuba diving game? What is Endless Ocean like?
>yuri
don't lie you fucking faggot
Why is she so fascinated by normal human interactions? Is she an alien or something?
>>144588831
If you're not swimming up or down, the pressure shouldn't change much. And try Subnautica.
>>144587833
Amaama is too hamfisted compared to Amanchu. It beats you over the head with "cute kid, dead wife, single dad, you are supposed to feel emotions" and so on. Amanchu feels much more organic and inspired by comparison.
>>144588909
Who are you quoting
>>144588831
Ecco the Dolphin.
>>144585806
Pikari wants to go clamdiving with Teko.
>>144588403
N...no of course not, silly anon
>>144588403
Last time I did it, I felt air coming out of my eyes.
Never again.
>>144588831
Definitely Depth. Never had a more comfy diving experience.
>>144588403
This is not fun to do, particularly when you don't actually have a pressure difference to equalize. The other methods are better.
>>144588927
There isn't human interaction in Tokyo.
>>144589253
Try not to blow your whole lungs out, maybe?
>>144589545
But it never helps unless you do it hard.Reminder that not-Aika is worst girl.

Yes. Gintama is the top 1 anime there, you shouldn't be surprised

>>144591214
To be fair only Ai and Kotori have mancrushes right now. Pikari and Futaba are still acting fucking gay.

Why is anyone concerned over whether this is yuri or not when we already have New Game, a literal yuri kino this season
>>144592083

>>144592083
New Game is only yuri bait, though. Amanchu is real yuri.
>>144592083
>kino
>>>/tv/
>>144592083
Because, if you didn't know any better, Amanchu looks like a yuri romance show while New Game is a comedy SOL with girls lusting over each other. And yurifags are a popular target for shitposting to begin with.
>>144591914

Holy shit do nips have shit taste.
The art style in the show is fucking gorgeous. The light colour palette and the dark lines look so good together.
This might be the best looking show I've seen all year.
>>144594706
The art style is perfect, the opening is perfect, the ending is perfect, the voice acting is perfect, the OST is perfect and the content of the anime itself is perfect. This is objectively the AOTY and will be one of the best SoLs ever created once it's finished.
A true 10/10
>>144595617
>10/10
I think that's excessive for a slice of life show. Personally I couldn't rate a show like this higher than 6 or 7.
So these uniforms are obviously skin tight. You shouldn't be able to see someone's crotch through a long dress like that. I don't even know how she walks.
Who the fuck cares if it's /u/ or not. It's cute, that's all that matters.
I think I'm in love.
I'm claiming Pikari before anyone else does.
What did she mean by this?
>>144595867
Definitely tied for my waifu of the season.
>>144595881
>>144595881
She's teaching her students techniques on how women should treat men.
>>144595913
So how come hers isn't on there?
>Diving club
>Cool as shit club in any case because diving equipment is expensive and getting it through the club for free is awesome
>Advisor is the hottest teacher in school
>Three hot girls and one guy, who is a brother to one of the girls
>The club's activities mean that they're going to be wearing skintight suits all the time
Why is their school full of so many gays?
>>144596114
Are you blind? It's the "(Yes, I am) OK!", on the top left.
>>144596114
It's right there. OK reply.
>>144595881
What did she mean by this?
>>144596212
Because they live in an alternate universe where everyone is gay, the same universe from Maria Sama ga Miteru. That's why Teko's old school used the same uniform as Marimite's Lillian Academy.
>>144591301
But doesnt futaba has man crush too?
Yes, yes. Well done Teko, well done Teko.
HOWEVER
>>144596212
I wouldn't want to join a diving club either if I was a teenager. High school is stressful and time-consuming enough. Plus diving is not for everyone.
>>144596562
Pikari isn't a man, anon.
>>144596212
Drysuits are only sexy in Amanchu world.
>>144596657
How exactly is high school stressful? The workload is literal babby tier and the jobs you're able to get are mechanical mindless shit. There's absolutely nothing you should be stressed about in high school.
>>144596657
>High school is stressful and time-consuming enough.
Not really, it only is if you had a social life in it. If that was your case you should leave this place and go back to MAL you fucking normalfag.
>>144588403
I have, because I'm actually taking a diving class to get certified. I started before this anime, so there's an extra enjoyment to watching it, just out of personal experience.
>>144596724
For a teenager without any frame of reference to compare it to, it would definitely seem stressful to some.
>>144584975
>>144584975
This pretended to be Aria but is nowhere like that. The "fun" faces are put completly on random scenes without any sort of context what makes them not fun at all, the dialogues are devoid of any meaning, the characters are walking cliches, the scenery is not there to you to inmerse in the universe or comprehend the characters is just girls looking into horizon for the sake of having girls looking into horizon.
This anime is boring as hell, doesn't have any content at all not his. SOL is not about doing anything. I won't as far as saying its shit but...it's shit.
>>144596812
No to those who had proper preparation.
>>144596772
What a try hard.
>>144596799
Oh cool, I thought I was the only diver watching this show. Where do you live?
>it's "bait" again
Yeah, I won't take it. 1st episode was bad anyway.
>>144596562
No, she just ships Pikari with a boy
>>144596837
I think the anime is probably going to be better than Aria's adaption by virtue of it looking really nice as well as it's great OST and art style
>>144596999
I hope you aren't implying Aria's OST wasn't perfect.
>>144596904
Sure, but a lot of teenagers don't prepare for schoolwork because they're lazy and stupid.
Alt subs that change Teko to Dotty when?
>>144597032
Nope it is, also amazing to read along to with the manga. I'm just saying so far Amanchu's has been pretty good too

A lot of American teenagers. In Asian countries the parents force their children to take preparatory classes.
>>144596562
I don't read raws or french, so I've only gotten up to Katori's man meat.
>>144597032

Why can't we all just get along and appreciate both Choro Club and Gontiti?
>>144597184
Because show some respect for your elders. Aria OST is the GOAT.
>>144596724
Sounds like you went to a shitty high school.
>>144597127
Do all Japanese schools force kids to be in clubs or just some? If its the latter, I can definitely see why some kids wouldn't join clubs so they can dedicate their full time to school.
>>144597056
The anons who think high school was a carefree breeze were never a proper teenagers.
>>144597259
Doesn't matter. Point is that they wouldn't find joining clubs (or not joining clubs) stressful.
>>144597300
It wasn't a breeze, but it also wasn't difficult.
>>144597302
Sure. Guess divings not for everyone. Damn shame too. It's pretty cool.
>>144597302
Yeah because every teenager thinks like you, right? Retard. Everyone's high school experience is different.
Japan's high schools seem like universities in the diversity of their school clubs. Maybe only in anime though, not sure if it's that way in real life.
>>144597060
Just do it yourself.
>>144597302
The point isn't joining a club, it's trying to fit in in a completely new area.
>>144597230
Punk, both bands had world class YKK OVA soundtracks under their belts years before the Aria adaptation was even announced.

So the gist of his argument for these shit subs is "I meme, my insufferable friends and acquaintances meme, and therefore all subs should be memesubs".
>>144596837
>the characters are walking cliches
So says a delusional ariafag who worships the most shallow and idealized characters ever made. Teko alone is more human than any character from Aria.
>the dialogues are devoid of any meaning
You surely didn't read them then.
> The "fun" faces are put completly on random scenes without any sort of context what makes them not fun at all
Those "fun faces" are there to express the feelings of the characters in a light-hearted way, they are serving the same purpose as in Aria and just as well.
>the scenery is not there to you to inmerse in the universe or comprehend the characters is just girls looking into horizon for the sake of having girls looking into horizon.
Not really, the pool scene served the purpose of making Teko interested in diving, there was a reason for them to show that pool filled with cherry blossom leaves, it wasn't done just for the sake of doing it, and the same happened with other scenes.
Amanchu has the potential to be as good as Aria.
>>144597184
I didn't mean to imply otherwise. Amanchu and Aria both have great soundtracks.
>>144596837
t. animeonly fag
>>144597606
I meant cherry blossom petals, not leaves, nevermind.
>>144596837
How hilariously shallow. It's obvious that Amano's works aren't for you.
>>144597606
>So says a delusional ariafag who worships the most shallow and idealized characters ever made. Teko alone is more human than any character from Aria.
>Amanchu has the potential to be as good as Aria.
Not the guy you replied to, but isn't this kinda contradictory?
>>144597606
Not him but there's nothing wrong with idealized characters. I think that's what makes Aria's atmosphere so nice.
I'm enjoying Amanchu a lot so far though.
>>144597695
I don't think so, Aria focuses on world building while Amanchu focuses on its characters.
>>144597606
>the most idealized characters ever made
That's the point of Aria.
>Teko alone is more human than any character from Aria.
Who is Akira and Aika.
>it's a "cancerous shitposter falseflagging as an Ariafag" episode
>>144596657
In Japan you are pretty much expected to join a high school club. If you don't join one people think you're some kind of weirdo.

Yes it does.
I had shitloads of friends in highschool, and nobody fagged out like you're describing.
And no, same-sex crushes aren't normal for guys. You should be a little more honest with yourself in regards to your orientation.
>>144597863

Just some landwhale or faggot who's asshurt that there's only 11 fujobait shows airing this season.
>>144597907
Have you ever had friends? Guys joke around all the time about being gay for each other and stuff. When I was in high school me and my buddies used to do this thing where we'd "prison bitch" each other which meant where you'd hold someone down and dry hump their ass while your friends either watched or took pictures/video. And we'd also casually grab each other's dicks and stuff and see how far we could push it before making the other person uncomfortable. I'm pretty sure I'm not gay anon, that's just something teenagers do.
>>144597989
I'd be concerned if my mother were as gay with another woman at work as Rin and Kou are.

>>144597631
Anime have to be able to stand on their own, if an anime needs from the source material to completly understand it or to enjoy it then it means that the anime failed and is not successful at all as anime.
Reading the source material doesn't fix the anime issues.
>>144585225
No, there's a boy in it and he becomes a love interest later.
>>144588403
Yeah, like 4 times.
>>144598304
Except her training was done in Himeya. If it were such a shit company she wouldn't have become the top undine in the first place.
>>144598151
Are you just trying to start a shitty meme here?
>>144598151
I read the raws. It's a girl you idiot, it's said like a dozen times in the manga. She even wears dresses later on.

>>144590847

You can be trained at a shithole, it's still a shithole.
She didn't become a big name until after ARIA Company.
>>144598204
I'm 29, kido. You're the one too young to appreciate a masterpiece like Gintama.
How could Aria Company go from the legendary undines that Grandma and Alicia were to the shit that is Akari? Alice should've joined them instead, she is the only one who is worthy of inheriting Aria's heritage.
>>144598466
>She didn't become a big name until after ARIA Company.
That's blatantly false.
>>144598413

>>144598440

>>144598440

>>144598485

>>144598509
Yeah, I'd probably suck his dick.
>>144598492
So you are trying to start a shitty meme.
>>144598485
Akari is a much better match for Aria company, especially given how she draws everyone to her and makes friends with everyone she talks too.
>>144598491
Look. Himeya is still worst. Because it doesn't haveAlice.
The only male/female relationship I'm aware of is Katori-sensei being liked by the other teacher. And that just happened.
The scans I was reading crapped out in the middle of the senpai sister running around with Peter Pan, but I'm guessing he just turns out to be a ghost or some shit and there can't be an actual relationship.
>>144598577
All I did was post a raw page.

>>144598590

No wonder your taste is so shit.
>>144598304
Grandma wasn't the founder of Aria company though was she, the episode where Akari makes the large post for the gondola to moor on I'm sure it talks about Grandma's senpai in the company and others that made the initial design for the post etc.
>>144598723
I think that was Alicia's senpai, not Grandma's.
>Alice is so retarded she punishes her own left hand because it supposedly is useless
>there are people who still like her
>>144598723
No. The first palina was made by Alicia's senpai and Grandma's disciple.
>>144597695
Aria has no deep characters. They're all a bunch of pretty straightforward archetypes applied to good character designs.
Aria stands out in that these characters are used to create some very relateable reactions and interactions, which are then explored in detail to pleasing and almost instructive effect.
In a way, Amano's scenery porn doesn't stop at the scenery, at least not in Aria.
>>144598755
Metaphors.
>>144598752
>>144598768
>Alicia's senpai wasn't grandma
Wait so there's a mystery person I knew nothing of?
>>144598019
Nah, Cait Sith and any episodes involving him were the absolute worst.
>>144598826
Yes. No one knows. Grandma started Aria Company when she was 20 and only trained Alicia for 3 years until she's 50. She's trained many other undines in that ~10-20 year gap.
>>144598826

It's just Fyurie claiming to have done a TLC and concluded CR is better when of course he hasn't even bothered to check. Just shilling. I mean, I know they do quality check on nyaa, but it's just cartel bias and nothing more (see: leaving Sephirotic in the dust despite being better than 2D4U, and giving 2D4U green just because he slaps on flac and 10-bit bloat).

I'll correct that after this chapter.
>>144607176
I on the other hand believe it hasn't been enough.
Whoever is dumping: thanks for reminding me why I don't read manga - the anime adaptation is tenfold more watchable, especially the VAs.
>>144608423
They're adorable but I can see how they'd get annoying. If you were more cynical you could say that the anime is 'trying too hard'.
>>144608495
Yeah the voices in the anime are much better than the ones in the manga.
>>144608495
I don't know -- anime adaptations have a habit of making things like manga gags less tolerable.
Instead of placing, say, a silly face that occupied a small panel at the border of an anime's frame, they may cut to that in the center and add some overbearing sound effect that lasts a full second or more. Fucks up the flow.

>jesus christ someone get this autist away from me
>>144608559
In manga, you have to create your own distinct voices for each character. For me, I find this extremely difficult and irritating, as the characters typically change their tone throughout the manga. One moment you think you've got them dialed down, and the next they're so different that they seem completely out of character to your brain. Anime solves all of that and makes it flow easily, soothingly when it comes to SoL like this.
>>144608784
>manga gags less tolerable
I recall that touted in regard to the Sakamoto anime, but personally I found the anime far more enjoyable and rewarding than the manga. Maybe it's because I finished the anime before the manga, but then that still makes bias apparent in regards to the subject regardless of opinion.

Undertones. No kissu. Just hand holding.
>>144610616
It's implied heavily later on with the scene where Pikari and Teko are alone crying and the next morning Pikari is exuberantly happy with sensei asking if something good happened last night.

>>144588403
It's the basic Valsalva maneuver. Here's better instructions to minimize ear damage from Amanchu!
"The Valsalva Maneuver.
In what is probably the most commonly taught means of equalizing pressure during diving, divers close their mouths, pinches their noses and blow gently. Avoid blowing too hard and over-inflating the middle ear space. This can occur if divers are overly excited or having a difficult time equalizing during descent - and especially if they have waited too long before attempting to equalize. The result could be injury to the middle or inner ear."
>>144616795
You can also do this by closing the velum. It's what weightlifters do when they have both of their hands occupied.
>>144616957
For anyone interested, that's the Frenzel maneuver. It's considered more advanced than the Valsalva so it's not taught to beginner divers.
>>144617416
It's what Katori does when she lifted Pikari off with one arm

I had a bit of trouble with it in the manga in a couple chapters where Teko is in casual clothing. I couldn't figure out who she was at first in the chapter starting with her reading a book in a cafe for example.
She is actually taller than Katori which makes it more confusing.

This is literally the exact reason why it's important to pay attention to MAL. It's not like RYM or tMDB, semi-obscure sites with an elitist or isolative userbase, IMDB and MAL are the biggest sites for their respective mediums, and as such present the most accurate depiction of the common consensus. Not the most accurate scores in terms of quality, the most accurate common consensus. OPM obviously isn't one of the top 20 shows ever produced, but according to the general public it is #17, as assessed by 300k users.You don't have to be too bright to realise that Shawshank Redemption is quite shallow and by-the-numbers, but apparently it's the greatest film ever made, as assessed by 1.7m users. It should go without saying why this kind of information is important.
>>144634207
The only thing MAL and IMDB are useful for is reminding me how stupid people are.
>>144598876
Grandma was 30 when she started Aria Company.
She was having a age related crisis at the time because she was turning 30 and all the other undines had quit before her.
Undines normally only work from 15 to 25. Then they usually quit to get married, or occasionally become entertainers or models or such.
>>144598304
It wasn't awful, she was well respected and well paid.
She was also board and having a midlife crisis about turning 30 and being the only one left out of the undines she had started with.
>>144634207
You would have a point, but the flaw in MAL is that you can rate a series you haven't, by your own admission, finished watching. Most of the scores are calculated before the season even ends. Which means that initial impressions have a far greater impact on an MAL score than final impressions do. That's why shows like BokuMachi and Zankyou no Terror have massively inflated MAL ratings, and shows that people drop early and don't finish tend to be unfairly punished, like in recent memory Kuromukuro which had a slow start. And also why second seasons almost always have a much higher rating than previous ones - not because they are better, but because the only people who watched them were people who enjoyed the first season enough to want to keep following it. Just look at how the scores for the Monogatari series spike up over time, or Hidamari Sketch, or YrYr, or Non Non Biyori.
It would be an accurate reflection of a common consensus if that's what the numbers actually meant, but people aren't always the best at expressing their views in the form of a ten-point rating system. And it's that kind of system that's to blame in the first place. Rating things out of ten is a retarded oversimplification.
it's really more Shoujo Ai than Yuri.
>>144635511
Literally what's the difference? Both involve girls fucking each other
>>144595881
>What did she mean by this?
plan c
>>144635511
That distinction the western fandom used to make has fallen out of favor because of increased awareness the Japanese don't use "shoujo ai" like that: it's a fancy way of saying lolicon
>>144635885
and you don't think Amanchu is lolicon?
