Stop fucking making threads, most of the people who liked the show are gone and all you'll get are samefag shitposters and people whose questions are answered in the archives but are too lazy to look themselves, instead turning to this shell of its former self.

It should've been a 2-cour anime for children. No fanservice. Designs all the same but show less skin. Yayaka get her Flip Flap form more early on and join them. It's so annoying all the magical girl or any transforming girl like idol/fashionista anime for kids these days are copy and paste plots to sell toys, while the ones for teens+ are dark fanservice. Bet it would've sold more this way too, or perhaps if Papika was a boy.

>>
>>151848451
I don't think it would have helped here.
Look at episode 3, look at episode 1. Hell, look at episode 7.

The episodes in this show are all dense. It's just the director's style that he tends towards dense episodes loaded with bigger storyboards than they could comfortable accommodate. Sometimes they work well because the episode itself has a simple story and focuses around a setup into a single big action sequence (eg. 5). More often than not, individual episodes had serious pacing issues that were simply forgivable because the episodes still managed to be good.

The problems with individual episode pacing were present all along and the only reason they stood out more in the final episodes is because the final episodes were plot-focused, and didn't always have a single climactic action sequence that made the bumbling density of the leadup worthwhile. These are fundamental issues in episode composition, and lie squarely with the director. More episodes wouldn't have solved these issues, we would have just gotten a couple more random PI adventures before the plot conclusion got wrapped up in 4 dense episodes again.

Flip flappers would have been great if they'd made it that pure illusion was some kind of noosphere and they were collecting fragment's of people's cherished memories.
So like when they would collect a fragment they'd be deleting the memory of someone's dead grandma from someone.
Then the big reveal is that they've been erasing happy memories and you move the plot on from there. With salt being complicit in this because of his desire to bring back mimi, and the bad guys being complicit in this in their desire to... what was their motivation? Give the bad guys an actual motivation, like, say, power.

It'd thematically sting with the alzeihmers episode, and would probably make me cry bitch tears.

S2 villain is Cocona's PI alter-ego who goes around that weird part of PI that causes changes in the real world. Cocona, Papika, and Yayaka team up to fight her, and Yuyu and Toto learn how to flip flap.
>>
>>151852326
Don't get me wrong; PI breaking down into reality, Cocona's entire life being a lie, even the comic relief from TT-392 (whose brain was that?) was great.
But the whole parental kidnapping and power of friendship stuff dragged on far too long.
Even the two mimis was good, and was actually under explored. Real mimi vs the PI corruption of mimi would have been a better focus if you're looking for small changes.

>彼岸花
>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lycoris_radiata
>Uses
>The bulbs of Lycoris radiata are very poisonous. These are mostly used in Japan, and they are used to surround their paddies and houses to keep the pest and mice away. That is why most of them grow close to rivers now.[10] In Japan the Red Spider Lily signals the arrival of fall. Many Buddhist will use it to celebrate the arrival of fall with a ceremony at the tomb of one of their ancestors. They plant them on graves because it shows a tribute to the dead. People believe that since the Red Spider Lily is mostly associated with death that one should never give a bouquet of these flowers.[12]
>Legends
>Since these scarlet flowers usually bloom near cemeteries around the autumnal equinox, they are described in Chinese and Japanese translations of the Lotus Sutra as ominous flowers that grow in Diyu (also known as Hell), or Huángquán (Simplified Chinese: 黄泉; Traditional Chinese: 黃泉), and guide the dead into the next reincarnation.
>Some legends have it that when you see someone that you may never meet again, these flowers, also called red spider lilies or corpse flowers, would bloom along the path. Perhaps because of these sorrowful legends, Japanese people often used these flowers in funerals. The popular Japanese name Higanbana (彼岸花 Higan bana?) for Lycoris radiata literally means higan (the other or that shore of Sanzu River) flower, decorate and enjoyable, flower of afterlife in gokuraku jyōdo (極楽浄土 gokuraku jyōdo?).

Nice design

>>151854620
I think that the interview gives the wrong idea a bit, the concept Oshiyama is talking about being decided is like the general scenario like two girls travel to odd worlds kind of thing. The term actually used in the interview as well where they say build the framework is the term for composition. So essentially once they had a basic barebones concept him and Yuniko did the series composition like tasks together. From the interview and yunikos tweets I kind of get the impression though that their were either creative differences between her and Oshiyama or changes to the later scripts from producers and Yuniko was either unwilling, unable or too slow in making. Thus due to getting behind schedule they had to get someone else.
>>
>>151855060
And they got the Kanon guy on short notice?
>>
>>151855088
Well yeah it says in the interview that he saved their asses by writing the scripts for the last half with regards to the schedule.
>>
>>151855112
Neat. Well, glad it all worked out. I still don't like going to Twitter over creative differences.
>>
>>151855143
People in Japan were saying on affiblogs and things that it was unprofessional to do so and even worse in some cases. It might be that the delay to the scripts is ultimately what caused the production schedule to fall apart for the last couple of episodes and the QUALITY to creep in, you can't storyboard or start animating until you have scripts.
>>
>>151855060
>creative differences
I can tell what creative differences they had. Yuniko wanted to write a perfect yuri story between Papika and Cocona. This plotline got sidelined in the latter half when Papika and Cocona got upstaged by Yayaka because she was not no longer in control and her ideas were not conveyed. To make it worse the crew (Oshiyama, Kojima, VAs) all liked Yayaka the most and Oshiyama's vision for Papika was much more simplistic than Yuniko's. The upstaging of Yayaka is probably representative of how the Oshiyama's main plotline of Jungian Hansel and Gretel had triumphed over Yuniko's romance plotline. I don't doubt Oshiyama's yuri intention but when the screen time is limited he chose to prioritize his main message over yuri.
>>
>>151855318
That's a whole lot of speculation built on what was already my quite tenuous speculation anon.

>>151855350

>>
>>151855238
>affiblogs
It's okay to take other people's opinion as reference, but not these. They just hate everything.
>>
>>151855421
Yeah there's no real basis in that for suspecting a creative difference. There could be all number of reasons Yuniko couldn't complete the second half and even then if there were changes to be made it's not nessecarily that it was Oshiyama who wanted them besides the robot episode. It's all just a speculation that I've made based on what I've read not the truth of what happened. Speculating in that much detail about a creative difference that is itself a speculation is ridiculous.
>>
>>151855443
Saying it's unprofessional to tweet about how show and how you wanted it to be different whilst it's airing doesn't seem that extreme to me. The extreme comments were saying things like they never wanted her to work on kiniro mosaic again, she should quit anime, she has the mental age of a teenager, she has narcissistic personality disorder and such.
>>
>>151855548
Shitposters, plus Japanese are not fond of anyone who rocks the boat even slightly in general.
>>
>>151855601
Of course. I'm just saying that calling it unprofessional doesn't seem that unreasonable it's only going to create division amongst the fans.
>>
>>151855484
You didn't get the point did you? I think most legit criticism has agreed things were not right with Papika and Cocona being upstaged by Yayaka, not given enough screen time and the disconnect between Papicoco and SaltMimi plotlines. Something has to account for the injustice of underdevelopment of Papika and Cocona in the latter half.

Now you can look back at the development of the story concept for the causes. Oshiyama's main message for the story was inspired by Jungian interpretation of Hansel and Gretel from Hayao Kawai's books (matricide metaphor, shadow, duality of maternity, individuation of the child from their mother) and all these concepts were reflected in the story. He put the most effort in this world view (which is also why he would want to give a talk about it) so it's understandable why yuri romance is not a required component of it instead it's a nice-to-have, a secondary priority. It's also mentioned Yuniko had a quite active role in putting yuri in the story and you can observe a level of mastery in subtle depiction of emotion in the early episodes that's surely beyond the grasp of a new male director. If Yuniko wanted anything it had to be a good yuri story instead of a Jungian sci-fairy tale.

These almost have nothing to do with Yuniko's tweets.

You are speculating that their are creative differences and then further speculating based on that what those were and how things would be different. You can speculate however you would like why the show is like it is but unless you've got anything to back it up then it is just that speculation based on speculation. An anime production fan fiction.

>unless you've got anything to back it up
Yeah it's not like I'm gonna put citations everywhere if you're unable to read the same source materials.
>>
>>151855998
What you are really failing to understand is that nowhere is it indicated that Yuniko wanted anything majorly different in the rest of the series or any reason for her not writing the episodes beyond that they were short on time. Anything going beyond that is speculation. Yuniko didn't write the remaining episodes due to time constraints that's the only "factual" reason you can give. Anything beyond that is speculation regardless of how you come to it in the absence of any other factual insight. Your interpretation of the shows plot and what you think different writers would have done is not a factual insight. It's speculation.
>>
>>151855998
The real failing in the logic though is you are making a jump from perceived differences in the second half to Yuniko had creative differences which caused her not to be the writer for the rest. There is nothing to establish that causal link. The reasons for your perceived differences could just as easily be casually related to the fact that someone else was writing rather than Yuniko not doing them because of a difference creatively. You are using perceived differences as evidence of creative differences but you would expect to see some differences if there was a different writer regardless of the cause of the change. It doesn't contain the right information to come to that conclusion.
>>
>>151856062
>nowhere is it indicated that Yuniko wanted anything majorly different
So we start from square one, right?
>Yuniko didn't write the remaining episodes due to time constraints
You even got this wrong. The things that are confirmed in the interviews are 1) Yuniko didn't write the remaining episodes; 2) There were time constraints. Where did you get the causal link?
>Your interpretation of the shows plot and what you think different writers would have done
What Oshiyama did and what Yuniko did are literally stated in the interview. I don't get why it's so hard for you to read that.

On second thought I think you're seriously getting ridiculous. Why are you denying there are creative differences? People always have differences.
>>
>>151856170
Oh, I didn't know what "creative differences" means. Sorry. I didn't mean to imply Yuniko left the project because of dissenting opinions.

Yeah I just want to demonstrate how the style of the show had changed over the course.

Im denying that creative differences were the reason Yunikos writing ceased after episode 6 as being anything more than speculation. There's no factual basis for this anywhere. The second half could be different for any number of reasons you cant logically conclude from the facts that it is different that the only possible explanation is that Yuniko didn't writer episodes because her opinion on what they should contain conflicted with Oshiyama. It's pure fantasy. There are hundreds of alternative explanations. Producers could have wanted the changes, Yuniko could have been slow, Yuniko could have been busy, Yuniko could have been ill, they could have felt like giving someone else a shot who would be better at that part in their opinion seeing as they were behind schedule. There's nothing to indicate the specific fantasy explanation you have landed on is anything more than a speculation. Again differences you perceive in the story are not evidence of creative differences when you cannot say anything about what would have been otherwise without speculating to begin with.
>>
>>151856260
Oh never mind then. I suppose everyone learns something sometimes. I'm surprised you didn't manage to make it obvious before now though. There are definitely changes in writing style after the shift of writers though I agree with that.
>>
>>151856371
the weird thing though is episode 7 falls pretty in line with the 'yuniko stuff'

what happened there? oshiyama rewriting or slightly modifying an earlier concept? he knew what the series was like at the start but didn't care when it came to later half? he just let hisaya pull whatever the fuck later on because they were pressed for time?
>>
>>151846992
Oshiyama is so awesome.
I hope he directs more anime.
>>
>>151856447
Oshiyama said he wroter ep 7 by Yuniko's yuri lessons and somehow he still broke some Yuniko's rules. Which rule I don't know exactly (no boys for Cocona, what?) but I guess breaking it made the yuri depiction not as intricate as that of Yuniko.
>>
>>151856576
I'm glad he broke her 'rule' and surrounded Cocona only with girls if just for the sole purpose of laughing at the guy who kept using the ikemen line as definitive proof that Cocona was straight.

I'm not familiar with Yuniko's style though. Does anyone think she would have given us more explicit yuri like a kiss or would have ended it more ambiguously than Oshiyama?

>he just let hisaya pull whatever the fuck later on because they were pressed for time
Oshiyama is great at visual storytelling but from this I think he doesn't have the same level of control as Yuniko in subtle character building. The damn "loved you since you were born" line was printed in big letters along with his interview so apparently he's ok with this or is this what he intended?? Either way it's problematic because he didn't get the full implication of this line on character relationship. Also since he started as an animator he would be naturally more focused on animation and less on the story when they were pressed for time.
>>
>>151855318
>all liked Yayaka the most

They have good taste. It's hard to really like MCs in an ostensibly romantic story when one half seems annoyed at the other 90% of the time and the love confession comes at the tail-end of the show.
>>
>>151856736
>Also since he started as an animator he would be naturally more focused on animation and less on the story when they were pressed for time.
Don't assume you know the man. He showed great care for telling the story he wanted told.
>>
>>151856736
what's the japanese line though

i feel like people making a big deal of that just from the way the CR translation comes across might be jumping to conclusions
>>
>>151856736

Why wouldn't he be okay with any lines from his own show? Clearly he was satisfied with the script, or it wouldn't have been animated in the first place.

Yeah, that really doesn't tell me anything. The episodes she wrote were great, but I wouldn't have wanted it go on like that. It seems like their relationship was developing very quickly there and that it would have been easy to just keep it at the level they displayed in ep 5.

it tells me that yuniko buys into the narrative of supressing explicitly gay depictions in favour of 'metaphors' and shit like that which only merits expounding on things perceived as taboo

regardless of whether she's okay with actual lesbians, the subtext yuri stuff is generally not very okay with it. pretty similar to a lot of fujoshibait stuff actually

No. Yuniko does great yuri without kissu. Kissu is almost like fanservice and the substance of yuri or love in general is not about kissu.

>>151856903
man why do all these people type like 5 year olds with "kissu" and shit

it's not even about whether they kiss though, it's about being actually explicitly concretely diegetically gay in ways that weigh on the characters. you know the way het romance works in these stories, because it's accepted to be explicit about het romance

Het romance works by taking you to the destination as soon as possible. Yuri romance works by having as much detour as possible.

Ideal S2:
Yayaka takes over an abandoned oil platform and forms a new organization, Mirage Sans Frontières, or MSF for short. The organization started with a simple purpose, to offer henshin services to the highest bidder, but soon grows to be much more than that, soon becoming THE place to go for all interested in Pure Illusion. A real Outer Heaven, if you will.

I want a spinoff about senpai in an art college!

After months of painting, enduring the pressure to become a recognized artist, drinking, smoking, having lesbian sex and winning too few art competitions, she would accidentaly discover PI while experimenting with psychodelics to get inspiration. Then she would get obssesed with PI and getting inside it with her sanity deteriorating with each attempt. She notices PapiCoco on their adventures a few times, but the last episode is her actually meeting them and getting a happy end

It's for an extra video player to watch hentai in. So I can have mpc-hc and vlc to play 2 different fap fuel.

But enough of that back on-topic:

What are the chances of 3Hz taking this market signal of fli flapper's increasing sales translating into more character goods?

I want daki's, towels, mousepads and such from flip flappers.

I have a question.

Did the "realistic" rabbit in PI look completely freakish and alien to Cocona?

Why would a "realistic" PI exist? Shouldn't the whimsical fantasy of Cocona's world be considered realistic?
It makes sense from a narrative standpoint, but not a common sense one.
>>
>>151860615
I believe that's a childhood photograph of the Mysterious Green Gentleman that becomes Yayaka's husband later in the series.
>>
>>151860563
slim to nil. Better odds at just waiting for the chinese bootleg market to make one.
>>
>>151860679
That's called dramatic irony, anon. The world appeared strange to the viewer because it was normal, but the characters showed no awareness that the normal was different from their normal, creating a feeling of tension in the viewer as they feel like they're aware of something the characters aren't.
>>
>>151860699

Infinite does mail order sometimes. They probably still have unsold ones left.
>>
>>151860734
Yes but when Cocona was in the "realistic" PI, it was supposed to be a world where all the magic was gone. But from Cocona's perspective, that would be a fantastical world just like the other PIs.

Ever read Life of Pi? It's the whole idea of presenting an alternate version of events suddenly and briefly and then explicitly dismissing it, but leaving just enough doubt in the reader/viewer's head to create ambiguity. It's the mother of all open endings. Some will believe Cocona really was living in a Pure Illusion all along and that she decided to go back because her character arc was complete and she had learned to embrace escapism as something positive. Others will see it as a kind of final defense trap that she had to overcome.

Notice she only beats it by returning to the original place where she and Papika entered Pure Illusion and carrying out the same scene a second time. The idea that the "entrance" has become an "exit" is significant I think.

>3hz
They aren't even on the production committee they stand to gain very little from this show being financially successful perhaps beyond a reputation as a studio that makes success.
>>
>>151860783
Would it? She spent her entire life (up to the start of the series) in a "normal world", and after all the weird shit with mimi, she may have thought everything went back to normal or something
>>
>>151861397
This isn't a case of "what actually happened" so much as "what does it actually say". It's pretty clear that the message of this ending is that no matter how dull and grey your life may seem, a significant other and a bit of courage can make it as fantastical as you want.

FlipFlappers is a creative reimagining of Citizen Kane. Cocona is William Randolph Hearst, Papika is Rosebud, and Yayaka is a room full of boxes. I mean, that should have been obvious from the early promotional materials.

It's just some sort of trend that caught on, not sure it has a super specific root other than maybe that one Russian artist that draws fujoshi stuff.

Suits are all about the silhouette. All you need is to not be fat, have proper posture and have the suit actually fitted properly. Most people who share your lament fail the 3rd because they pick up some cheap 1-style-fits-all suit tailored for a male mosel in Milan that fits your body about as well as a wet sock. The suit aesthetic is all about form, if your suit isn't fitted properly you look like a pig in an expensive blanket or a teenager in oversized hand-me-downs. It's nigh impossible to look bad in a properly fitted suit because, no matter what, the clothed part of your body will look good.>>151868405

I would rather see a Disappearance of Papikana movie. Cocona would wake up in the 'real world' PI one day and notice that Papika is gone and nobody remembers her. She would have to convince Yayaka and others that Pure Illusion exists and together figure out the reason why the puppy is gone.
>>
>>151869713
I'd like to see a far future sequel, Papika and Cocona are grown up, and have raised a litter of puppies (conceived through PI fuckery) and a new generation of Flip Flappers must take up the mantle of PI exploration.

The new characters are cute lovable, totally in love, and they're shotas.

It's weird though, because according to this interview, Oshiyama left his mark in every single episode. It's a work which is pervaded by Oshiyama's ideas - which is something we would expect out of an auteur work.

On the flip side, Oshiyama was clearly not precious with this series - in fact he was clearly keen for others to inject their own personal ideas into the project at almost every level, from writing to design to storyboarding. This laissez faire approach will, by it's nature, create a very disparate and uneven work - which is something we would not expect out of an auteur work.

I think the problems with Flip Flappers really speak to the kinds of things that Oshiyama was and was not interested in.

Oshiyama seems to care about:

- Exploring innovative, unique settings
- Broad themes
- Visual symbolism as storytelling
- Metaphor
- Papika

Oshiyama doesn't seem to care about:

- Structure
- Form
- Plot or 'Traditional' story development
- Well rounded characters
- Dialogue
- Consistency

He states in the interview that he spent a lot of time on what I would consider the 'micro' level e.g. filling the show with visual symbolism and allusions to deeper ideas. However, he doesn't show that shame passion or care for shaping the macro level e.g. the overall vision for the show. As a result of this, the series lacks shape, and the audience and character just end up drifting from episode to episode without any real momentum until someone says "oh, better shove a story in at the end".

He certainly created a unique failure of a series.

It reads to me like you are using the parts of the interview that agree with your preconceived notions and ignoring the parts that don't. There are instances where he shows an interest in the structure of the series, the form of the episodes, the way the narrative is told and the fullness of characters, there is nothing said in there to indicate he wouldn't care about consistency or dialogue and neither is there in the series.

They promo'd the streaming stuff pretty hard, too.
I'm willing to bet at least 1 of the major japanese services was a production sponsor. Made-for-streaming shows tend to do poorly in BD sales because the sponsors aren't really willing to shell out to promote the tv slot, so overall exposure is lower. That said, I have no idea how well it did with streaming and I doubt streaming is much of an income stream at all outside of selling licenses to the chinese, so I doubt it made up for the weak BD sales.

None of those are specifically online streaming services to my knowledge but there are multiple video dristributors so selling the rights to streaming services on mass would likely be making them money.

Yeah abema is a free Japanese streaming service basically that anyone can watch kind of like free online Japanese TV. They promote all of the streaming sites though like they do TV airings. Two of the main companies there are Bandai owned (Happinet & Lantis), GAGA have only ever done a few TV anime before, Hakuhodo is Showgate who I think do International Sales, Sotsu is an advertising firm, Medicos are a toy manufacturer, AT-X, Tokyo MX and BS Fuji are TV networks.

this is true. I was genuinely surprised when they started the whole 'Yaya is suddenly Cocona's best friend' agenda.

but while they were not actively friendly (no idea how to put that in words) that doesn't mean that Yayaka couldn't see it differently. She might've thought that they're best pals since childhood, but considered herself too cool and Cocona too autistic to actually act all chummy.

also

Considering how much more active Yayaka and Cocona are in the flashback, I'd say they both considered each other best friends even if Yayaka didn't want to admit it and Cocona never much thought about it. Yayaka waited for Cocona to walk with her to school, pull her into the nurse's office away from Papika to talk with her in private and hang out with her in the nurse's office when Cocona was in there. Even after everything that happened up to episode 7 and all their fights in PI they still were talking comfortably without animosity between them.

Also given the interview in OP it makes more sense now how Bandai have been involved in funding every 3Hz show so far along with Infinite. The president of 3Hz Matsuka Yuichiro as far as I can see used to work as a producer for Bandai Visual/Producton I.G before forming Kinema Citrus and then later founding 3Hz and then the guy who owns Infinite also used to work for Bandai Visual as a producer before setting up his own production company. So it looks like its working like everything in the anime industry seems to, connections.

This is part of what made it feel distanced to me. Cocona and Yayaka refused to listen to one another, Cocona wasn't concerned for Yayaka, and they would just casually clash. Cocona had no real idea what was going on but readily took the information from this random group of people instead of her "friend" she had a long history with.

Well, Papika knows Cocona longer even if you discount Papikana adventures.

Almost like it's on purpose huh.
>>
>>151875008
But Papika was Cocona's childhood friend.

They're practically cradle sisters, and several other weird things.

So is there any hope that Flifla will be recognized in Japan?

I can see how Yayaka valuing her friendship with Cocona so much seems sudden. While it was airing I just took it as friends that got really comfortable around each other, but thinking back on it there weren't many moments that defined their friendship. Now it feels like they were very good friends a few years ago and since then started doing their own things. Cocona especially didn't seem like a physically active kind of person compared to Yayaka.

It's easy to get complacent with the friends that you have and be taken in by new people, especially if they offer you something that nobody else has. Papika just gave her a purpose in life while Yayaka let her figure it out for herself. All the times where Cocona and Yayaka had fun together happened before episode 1. Maybe Yayaka just became more reserved around her over time because she knew one day she'd have to remove the shard from her leg.

Danbooru says it's ' bangs pinned back ' which is a pretty accurate desription. But let me warn you, just like literally everything else it doesn't work in 3D at all so don't even bother to google it.

M.A.O isn't highly known?

So is today the last day for pre-ordering?

The current projected sales are around 1.8k but around 300 of those are from DVD sales that probably won't rank on Oricon so it will come out at 1.5k if the predictions are accurate but then the BDs are now currently ranking higher than ever before

She sort of is, she seems to be in some weird middle ground where she has done a fair bit and is known but not followed enough to have people watch every show she does.
>>
>>151875327
Also in terms of sales news I am thinking that will be either next Tuesday or Thursday right? The short list comes out on a Tuesday and the fuller one on a Thursday I think?

She's made a new fan out of me for sure.

Don't bother caring too much for the disc sales of this show anymore. It's pointless.

I wouldn't say I was worrying about it just curious to see how it does. I can see the inevitable stream of shitposting coming from people both aware and unaware that 1.5-2k sales isn't exactly the worst performing anime ever in the context of recent shows though.
>>
>>151875815
Does it mean we'll get an OVA? SnM got an OVA with worse sales.
>>
Can't wait for "Flip Floppers" and "Yurifags BTFO" to be spammed for hours. Truly fun times
>>
>>151875902
The spamming and shitposting will only out them as the worse fanbase. Nothing to worry about.
>>
>>151875902
If no one makes a thread, there won't be any shitposting.
Unfortunately someone will make one. Even if it's just someone baiting.
>>
>>151875862
It doesn't mean a thing, and FliFla being an original I wouldn't set my hopes too high.
>>
>>151875989
Flip Flappers threads have a grand tradition of having blatant bait in the OP.
>>
How long do you think we can keep up maxing out threads?
>>
>>151876186
That is no achivement. That is a problem.

I'm honestly shocked it's still going this strongly. It will probably peter out once the new season actually fucking starts airing. We've officially had 7 days with no new releases outside of fateshit and that one Gonzo ecchi show.
>>
>>151876230
So far these threads have been pretty good, considering it stopped airing. Even during air time there were worse threads.

But you are right, these threads need to stop at some point.

How did that edgy mahou shoujo fall show ended up having faster threads than Flip Flappers?

>>151876672
There is still content with these novels.

Faster threads than the show with the second most posts and text/post ratio?

The threads for that show discuss the light novels, which have a lot of new material and releasing chapters.

Gimme a break, mega-satan. Cocona probably doesn't even know how to masturbate, let alone lesbian sex. Her first time with Papika is going to be so awkward since neither of them seem to have any idea how to get themselves or each other off. It'll be a lot of aimless rubbing and long makeout sessions before Papika finally gives her the first orgasm that hasn't been accompanied by the corner of a table and mild bruising.

She knows. How could a pervert like her not?

Anon, her grandmother sits in her room at night and watches her sleep.

Where's a girl like Cocona going to get a moment to flip her flaps when she's monitored 24/7?
