I disagree. Papika now understands that Cocona is not Mimi. Now she's even more confused because she knows Mimi was/is her partner. But Cocona is also her partner now. The girl is getting mind raped by memories and it seems like they are emphasizing that with the 3 Mimi cliffhangers in a row.

>>
>>150420129
If she's just recovering from plot-induced amnesia she's not getting mindraped

She would be getting mindraped if she was still confusing reality for memories and dead people for alive people.

Besides what you said is what makes it bad. Now Cocona has no stakes in this other than "save muh friend" from whatever they set up. Whereas they set-up for something more interesting before, as they clearly used it this episode. Except they turned it into a gag and a plot device that was obviously going to be discarded within the same episode.

The fragments are Mimi. She probably gained some kind of very special and powerful power because of Pure Illusion. She turned herself into fragments because the KKK was trying to steal her power.

Which means Toto, Yuyu, and the blue haired one are imperfect clones of Mimi, since they're called Animorphus children.

Since the gems, that are Mimi, are getting brought back together to one place, this triggers Papika to start remembering who Mimi is. I think Mimi purposefully blocked Papika memory of her because she didn't want her to go through the pain of living her entire life without her.

The shards are crystallized memories. "Shards of Mimi" means the crystallized memories that people used to have of Mimi, who has now been forgotten.

Iroha's Oba-chan created a "shard" which, when stolen, caused her to forget everything. So she chucked her paintings and used her nailpolish and didn't remember anything about Oba-chan's encouragement about her "weird" drawings or her shame about the nailpolish.

Dr. Salt wants to gather the "shards of Mimi" so he can get his memories back. While gathering them, they've been coming back to Papika too.

Some of the fanservice is fine. Everything about plant loli because it made her seem like a menacing succubus. That suited her. But every time it's just the male gaze when there's nothing sexual going on in the story, well, that's obnoxious.

What is Yayaka's mindset? What does she fight for?

Cocona is Yayaka's precious friend but Yayaka is not afraid of hurting Cocona. What is this mindset?

If Yayaka is the kind of tragic hero, a possible explanation for Yayaka's motive is that Yayaka ostensibly works for KKK through pain and suffering so Cocona can be relieved from being compelled to be experimented on in this apparently evil but secretly good role. Yayaka suppresses her pain and emotion all the time to play the bad guy just to protect Cocona's well-being.

I don't hate her. As I said, worst girl of the three (right now) but they've all gone up and down. Yayaka just had a particularly strong arc and now I think it's time for Papika to get hers leading into the finale so I see her ascending the ranks again soon.

Yayaka's reaction and the way the impact marks fly around looks to me like she punches her at the same time. Grabs the amorphous with the left and punches her with the right. Look after that scene and the amorphous is in her left hand, she pulls back her arm before like doing a punch.

I like all 3 of them though Yayaka is most certainly the most developed character by now. Cocona and Papika's lives and motivations are still very unexplored compared to her. I have a feeling that Papika is the one with the worst past.

I'd say Cocona and Yayaka are about equal in terms of development. Cocona's is just far more stretched out while Yayaka's was basically front and center for 2 episodes in a row. They really need to explore Papika more and I think that's exactly what they will do.

With the return of Papika's memories, she will no doubt remember something troubling and be at the lowest point she's ever been. It will then be Cocona's turn to save Papika just like Papika has saved her from her own lowest point in the beginning of the show.

To me it looks like Yuyu used her fist to propel her, hit the ground to stop, picked the amorphous up, then leaped away. The impact marks are in a ring, possibly like an explosion ring, and don't match with the previous scene where yayaka punched papika. But we don't see anything so there's no way to confirm.

The patrician way to self insert is to put yourself in the situation the way you want. Context is important. Sometimes I want to be the little girl and be cute with my gay friend. Sometimes I want to be the faceless old man that mindbreaks the little girl. Sometimes I want to be the dashing hero and marry a pure maiden.

Can Cocona and Papika transform in the real world? Because if not then Yayaka will have to play an important role defending their base for them. This could be integral to her coming to terms with her betraying the people who raised her. It's probably going to be hard though with Cocona and Papika likely making up around the same time and being close with each other.

I really hope nobody dies in the end.

To be honest though if you watch the scene closely its almost impossible to make sense of, some of the parts must be out of order at the very least. She is shown having already covered Cocona when the missles impact at first then shown sitting upright when they hit ontop of Cocona, so either she layed down to cover Cocona, got hit in the back and popped back up or the scene just doesn't make sense.

Well they are becoming closer according to Salt. Maybe Hidaka's behaviour changing without them going into DPI is an indication of this? It might just be a red herring though since we don't really know who mecha land belongs to, or if it's even a single person's at all.
>>
>>150418945
I have watched it and I do not agree with you. It wasn't bad by any stretch, i'd say a 7 or 7.5 out of 10. It accomplished what it set out to accomplish as mahou shoujo very well, it may be one of the best pure mahou shoujo shows ever made. But the scale I mentioned earlier grades the medium as a whole, not just mahou shoujo. If it wants to rate higher on that scale, it needs to pull from more than one or two types of genre composition.

I use a ten point scale for convenience and relative approximation. My point is that I think Flip Flappers deserves praise as one of the pinnacle shows of its genre, but not as one of the "greatest anime ever" as so many people try to claim. Not all genres function the same, and mahou shoujo is a relatively isolationist one that conventionally only connects with one or two other genres - yuri and drama are probably the most common, though not the only two. A good conventional mahou shoujo only pulls lightly from the genres near it, in well written ways so as to maximize the mental 'suffering' the genre is built around. This, unfortunately, means that a mahou shoujo that is widely recognized to be at the pinnacle of its genre is still uninteresting and bland to someone who just doesn't like mahou shoujo - it only appeals to one niche of the broad spectrum of taste. That is why I think Flip Flappers, while great in its own right, is inferior to shows that mix more influences from more genres to create an experience that can be enjoyed for one reason or another by a very broad range of people with different tastes.

You're letting the threads get to you. The show is not as explicit in this regard as you might think. It's present to be sure, but it's rarely given much focus(7 has the most). Episode 9 had very little(IMO basically none) sexual/romantic focus. This was a feud between friends.

Sorry, but I wasn't the persona who initially said that. I'm just coming into the argument to agree that parody != genre mixing.

Also my reply was simple because I thought your post was rather silly, as if trying to make what's going on into something quite grandiose.

But I will say that FF is much more of a mahou shoujo than KlK.

Having this in mind for a show can result in something fantastic, which is rare, or something absolutely abysmal and I think the creators preferred to stick to their niche. It's difficult to classify Flip Flappers with a genre because it doesn't maintain the style of anything specific. It has it's own style. You can describe it as adventure, fantasy, yuri, mahou shoujo, etc. but that is a terribly devoid simplification when the show so heavily relies on actually watching it rather than how you can describe it verbally/textually.

Its the same with ever PI, they have done a great job of using PI to show us the emotional state of the characters and their conflict, instead of just telling us.

So few anime actually use the medium to its fullest. Flip Flappers is one of the few that you can enjoy just for the art, let alone the emotional ride

That Papika wasn't a real Papika, so she's an unreliable source of info on what the real Papika feels. If anything, it was more about Cocona reflecting on her own feelings towards Papika, and she is likely under the assumption that Papika's daisuki means real daisuki and not friendzone daisuki.

Succubus Papika was not Papika. It was a PI ruse born of Cocona's confusion about her feelings for Papika. I'm not saying there's no homo at all(there definitely is) but the original post I replied to >>150423231 was suggesting that there's "incredibly high focus" on it which I really don't think is true, especially in the past 2 episodes which dealt with Yayaka's FRIENDSHIP with Cocona.

Adding to this, being a central part of the show does not necessitate a lot of focus. The relationship between Papika and Cocona is front and center, definitely, but the romantic/sexual aspect of that relationship(which is what the original post refers to) is just more subtle in my opinion.

That's because Hibike is a LN adaptation so some or a lot of people already know what happens. Still, if it's 200 people per Hibike thread making 1-3 posts it would still count as being more popular than 100 people per Flip Flappers thread making double or triple the posts.

Yeah, post count =/= quality.
>>
>>150425912
Missing the point. How many of those people do you think will be the same people that fill up the next thread and the one after that and the one after that? If you have four threads hitting 500 in 24hrs it is likely that across those 24hrs the 100 people making those posts have changed almost entirely multiple times.

That aside, all these numbers measure if the shows popularity for discussion on /a/. Flip Flappers is much more discussed on /a/ that Hibike. There could be tons of people watching Hibike that just don't want to talk about it though of course.

You can't tell if you are trying to measure popularity by number of people as there is no way to see what the overlap is. Insufficient information to draw any conclusion. All you can say with the data you can extract from /a/ is which show is discussed more overall and that is Flip Flappers by far.

You can't tell anything from IP count besides IP count in a thread with any certainty. You'd need unique IP count for all threads for a show in a week. If you were doing average IP count for example a show that gets say 4 threads with 100 posters who are all different in each will look less popular than a show with 2 threads and the same 150 posters in each. Despite the first set have 400 posters and the second set having only 150.

>>150426594
Just take an average of the IPs across threads. That way a show which has 2 threads per week with 450 then 150 IPs will be shown to have more popularity than another show with 10 threads per week with 350 then 100 then 50, 50, 50 etc due to circlejerk generalfagging.

Of course you can't get absolute concrete numbers without being a mod/admin, and even then dynamic IPs would mess up the data, but you're delusional if you think there's no way at all to create a reasonably accurate study.

The data should smooth out over the course of a week across many threads and timezones. Obviously it would be skewed if you just took the first day within the episode airing or something, and you would still have a margin of error, but as long as the results don't come down to a difference of around 10 or less IPs I'd say it would be fairly accurate enough to base a casual opinion off what chinese cartoon is popular or not on /a/.

And why is that flawed? This method adjusts for discussion fading away after the airing date and generalfag circlejerking. It would work whether it's 500 people discussing the shit out of the show until they tire out after 5 threads compared to 50 faggots circlejerking in generals all week or if it's 500 people circlejerking in generals all week.
>>
>>150427316
It's flawed because there is no way of knowing how many of those posters are unique across any more than a single thread. 3000 unique IPs over 10 threads could be 300 posters in all the threads or 3000 different posters or anything in between. The longer the time period and the bigger the count the worse the problem becomes.

It doesn't matter if there are 50 24/7 posters in these threads, because if YOI has 50 24/7 posters as well then the difference is 0 and from then on only 'floating' posters would be counted for each side. If we get a result of 100 vs 140, we're not saying X has 100 posters and Y has 140, we're saying Y has 40 more posters than X.

No you can't say anything at all about the number of posters overall only about the number of unique posters per thread. There is no information contained in those numbers about the overall number of posters. Unique posters per thread gives no indication of number of posters overall talking about a show.

It doesn't work because it contains no information about what you are trying to measure. The most you are able to say from an average of the number of unique IPs per a thread is "show X tends to have more posters per thread than show Y" which is meaningless in terms of overall poster number as show X could be different posters in every thread and show Y could be the same posters. It is really simple. The numbers are indepedent and cannot be used additively to derive an average in any meaningful sense for overall number of posters.
