Sangatsu no Lion

>>148372484
He became god of shogi

>>148372569
I like to think that he's actually a ghost and will disappear from the series at one point with no explanation.

He's deaf, he gave up his hearing for shogi skills

>>148372484
Read the manga you fucking retard

>>148372955
Since when does Satan teach shogi in faustian trades?
I always knew he was a fucking weeaboo.

Why are the OP and ED for this show so lame

>>148373698
Quite the opposite actually.
Both are spectacular.
Bump of Chicken really know how to make amazing songs, and the visuals are fantastic too.

>>148373698
>Bump of Chicken
>sucks

But I prefer Suneohair on my EDs any day

>>148373716
The song is fine but the visuals are beyond boring

>>148372484
He was raped as a Child.

>>148373772
Well, look amazing, but they're very centered on the topic of the character feeling.
So I guess they're boring if you don't care for Rei or the story.

>>148373794
How does that make you good at shogi?
But I guess he actually had those glass eyes stare, white hair autistic look ever since he was a kid.
Since Rei comments that nothing reaches his ears for a long time I do wonder if something actually happened to him long ago.
Probably not rape though, maybe his parents died or something boring like that, again.

>>148373749
>Suneohair
They're pretty great, but I only ever heard them do Arakawa ED's.

>>148374605
Suneohair is a really good Indie composer. His songs are really great. He did several EDs of some shows but he's most notable for HachiKuro EDs Waltz and Split

>>148375221
Yeah, I have heard most of his songs,
Didn't know they were in anime other than Sakasama Bridge and Akai coat.

They need to use them more.

>>148375290
Yeah and Umino also admitted that she's a fan of Suneohair. Its weird why they didnt use a Suneohair song for 3gatsu this time.

I always figured he was basically Rei cranked up to 11. Some sort of shitty childhood caused him to go inside his own head and focus only on shogi.

>>148375323
Because she gushed about Bump of Chicken during the whole FIGHTER promo thing.

>>148373716
I like the visuals but Bump of Chicken songs are just your average jpop garbage.

>>148376404
>>148373749

This series would probably feel really retarded to someone who's actually good at shogi.
I never understood how you can make made up plays seem interesting and not clearly bullshit powerlevel crap.

>>148377304
the shogi isn't the focus at all, not to mention the author has shogi advisers and has done a lot of research. not to mention the character doesn't win every game they play, this isn't yugioh with shogi

>>148377304
Way to show you haven't read it

>>148377870
Way to show how what the fuck are talking about?

>>148377826
I'm not talking about Rei.
I mean she even goes in detail on Shogi philosophy and basic game standards as to why people make bad moves at one point.
What I'm saying is that all the plays feel staged, not like they were done by real humans but was conviniently shaped by the author and it's kind of annoying but insecapable.
Also later half takes that up to eleven by making the current Meijin almost a mythical autism god of perfection.
It clearly feels like someone is toying with the games however they want and not naturally, in that feeling I hate series about real sports of any kind, it feels fake and convinient.

>>148373749
Bump of chicken only have a few good songs.
Other times they sound generic as fuck, which is the case this time around on both OP and ED.
Just bland.

>>148372484
So he's basically just Arima 2.0?

>>148372484
Shipping Rei with the middle sister is fucking disgusting.

>>148380744
Why not?
She clearly likes him.

>>148372484
Autistic. Obsessions can grow to the point where everything else goes gray.

Why does she look like an ugly jojo character in the middle panel?

Umino draws all characters like that once in a while. It's kind of a solemn expression.

Even Harunobu gets it.

>>148383626
I really liked her in the manga when she wasn't with Gotou.

If she had more screentime with Rei it would be GOAT.

Momo is my only salvation

>self inserters

>>148383863
Hina eventually fell for Rei in latest volume

>>148383959
She fell for him long before that.
It's pretty apparent that she cared for him from the get go.
But then especially after bullying arc you can see her developing feelings for him.

>>148383626
Shit, bitch is crazy.
I only just started reading the manga.

There was a flashback panel of her sitting on top of Rei in a bed.

Did she rape him at some point and that's why he ran away from the family?

>>148385161
Keep reading

>>148385161
No, he ran from the family because he basically ruined everything for his foster siblings. She raped him because of it.

>>148380744
What's wrong with it?

>>148385492
>>148385492
I don't remember anything about rape in this manga.
Did I miss something or was there a new chapter on that.

>>148386295
Rape is probably a strong word. I thought they made it pretty apparent that she abused him though, most likely sexually.

>>148386476
No, Rei had some sort of feelings for her, maybe even romantic. It's a weird relationship, she'd sleep with him(as in sleeping) but she resented him too. And despite her sharp words he cared/cares about her a lot, they kinda lick each other wounds once in a while but still have big problems with each other.

>>148372484

Autisma from Tokyo Ghoul is inspired by this autismo isn't he?

>>148372484
>the series talk a lot about NHK

Guess who's getting a season 2?
