Let's be honest. Maruto shat the bed hard with the main story. It's going to be dragged out to hell before it reaches the predictable romantic destination. KM takes itself easy and doesn't pretend to be some pretentious harem with DEEP character development and that makes it more enjoyable to read.

>>153445251
Maruto sucks at writing LNs and tries too hard to pander to everyone. If he stuck to one girl and stopped trying to treat the series as a VN it would be a much better story. If you ignore Volumes 9 and 10 then Saekano can match up to WA2.

I can't wait for you Megumifags to get BTFO. I am so sick of your trolling and denial. Vol 12 will drive a stake in your heart.

You should just enjoy Megumi without trying to ship her with Tomoya of all people.

These only describe main series Utaha.

>>153445643
Enlightened us then, Mr. Maruto expert.

>>153445570
Maruto rushed things with V7 so he omitted their friendship development, then when its lifetime got extended he couldn't go back to fix things.

>boring haremette

Nah, her interactions are the best. They're just unbelievably sweet.

>>153445576
Utaha's drama is in the past. She doesn't need development as she's perfect as she is. Redundancy started with Eriri in volume 9.

>>153445348
Utahafags are delusional and wanking KM because their girl was first to be BTFO in the canon LN. That is why KM is being forced in recent threads.

WA2 is his critically acclaimed work. Drama, conflict, and tension are half the factors to his style. No matter how inferior Saekano is in those respects, it's still a lot closer than KM is.

>>153445746
In other words you can't. Got it.

>>153445707
Eriri didn't even get much screentime in V9. There was no development, it was just Tomoya fooling around writing. V9 was nothing happening, V10 was true redundancy.

>>153445898
I hate both 9 and 10.

>>153445883
She had his entire freshman year to make him fall for her and she couldn't even manage that. Utaha's pathetic. To put it into perspective, Megumi managed it in a bit over six months.

>>153445952
Sure you do. You didn't even know that Eriri was barely in volume 9.

Yeah, with trucks and hospitals. It's Kiminozo all over again.

>>153445971
Utaha doesn't even want him anyways. She was only using limp dick the impotent to help her career.

>>153445987
That has nothing to do with the fact both novels have the same structure.

>>153446016
Maruto doesn't do trucks. He goes for the destroying from within kind of approach instead.

Megumi a shit.

>>153446080
Yaw. Can't wait for more forced drama between Eriri and Megumi over a poorly developed friendship.

>>153446043
Yes it does. The only thing they have in common is the fact Tomoya spend a decent chunk of the volume going through past events/arcs to create the heroine routes that were based on Eriri and Utaha. The rest of the volume are different. Eriri had a couple of scenes in volume 9 and didn't do much except to shed some light on a new characterization or two. Then Izumi and Michiru had some time together with Tomoya.

Otoh, volume 10 focused quite a lot on Utaha, a contrasts from volume 9 that didn't do the same for Eriri. Utaha had to deal with Akane and trying to be strong and dealing with breaking down/slump, which is a first time for us readers to see.

>>153446372
At least Mayu was introduced properly and formed a cohesive group with Tomoya and Utaha, unlike the literal asspull of a friendship that suddenly takes over the plot as if it was intrinsic to Eriri and Megumi's characters, when Megumi was solely developed as Tomoya's heroine and Eriri as Utaha's closest friend (on top of being Tomoya's haremette as well) with a lot of things in common (talented and successful artists with mutual understanding as such, being acquainted with each other since before the start of the series and having an established dynamic, being 'partners in crime' during volume 7 and GS showing that Tomoya's dick is not all there is to them which made a lot of sense and was a step forward for their development as characters and artists) for pretty much half the length of the series thus far. Megumi and Eriri's drama literally comes out of nowhere and fails be believable and impactful,and Utaha's character goes down the gutter. The series became a travesty after volume 7. It is undeniable KM is better written.

>>153446784
Maybe if Utaha wasn't such a waste of space we would've had more time for Megumi and Eriri. Alas, Maruto had to pander to her fans who are only here to look at pantyhose and boobs. It's a shame it took so long for Megumi to get popular.

>>153446765
No. I double-checked and she didn't. Tomoya rejected both her scenarios and quickly after Utaha went into calm fury mode. But she didn't speak or get mad until a short period of silence between them. She of course got mad and chew Tomoya out since her writing is godly and all that in her mind. Tomoya accepted the challenged and she heard out his criticisms. Things progressed as one would expect and they bonded and came to an agreement. Utaha vows to surpass Akane's company and all that. They spend the night together, which ended on a happy note.

>>153447053
Huh, I could've sworn he dragged her to his house where she moped a bit and then they finished the scenarios.

>http://live.nicovideo.jp/watch/lv290109095

Nico stream on Friday. There might be new info like S2 key visual or V12 cover.

>>153447132
Drag is the wrong context, but yes she went over and slept at his house. But Utaha wasn't crying or anything like what you implied. She was zoned out and in disbelief. Frozen up is the more accurate term to use. But it wasn't serious as she quickly shrug it off, evident in how she is still teasing Tomoya when she was in the bed and making it sound like she was making lewd sounds. The whole thing is more comical than serious. She fell asleep after that.

Then the next day things returned to normal, or at normal it would be. Utaha had calmed down after a night of sleep and in the end reviewed the criticisms he shot at her. As you know, she did something Tomoya didn't expect when he saw that she crushed most of his notes, but allowed him to write into her scenarios.

>>153446905
You can't blame one character for the author's shortcomings and lack of vision. Utaha was always the more natural rival and partner to Eriri. The story was crafted to be that way. They spend most of their notTomoya screentime together, they share most of their development together. Megumi honestly had no place in there and would have added very little to their dynamic. Which is why she's glued to Tomoya 90% of the time. Eriri and Megumi's BFF relationship never was on the same level and never had the same common ground to build a more solid bond than what Utaha had. Worst of all it didn't even have the bare minimum of screentime to try to make it resemble an actual friendship. We're forced to believe they're THIS close because the author just tells us they're THIS close.

>>153447486
Megumi was obviously supposed to be the biggest contrast to Eriri. They make up the core components of the love triangle. Just look at how closely long hair Megumi resembles Kazusa and Eriri resembles Setsuna. Eriri is also the stereotypical LN heroine, the antitheses to Megumi. She attracts attention while Megumi's generic character design doesn't. As for why their relationship wasn't expanded, it's already been explained how Megumi wasn't as popular back then and the LN was about to end so there wasn't enough time for proper development. The LN is secondary to the anime at this point, we'd be better off waiting to see how it handles their relationship first before jumping to conclusions.

>>153447684
Well at least you don't deny the LNs are terribly written. Your meta reasoning isn't even applicable to the first 5 volumes.

>>153447762
Megumi and Eriri only became friends in V4. They had some interaction in V5 and were supposed to have more in following ones, then Maruto had to rush the series and we got what we have. The LNs are badly written, and the only reason Saekano is popular is because the anime really brought Megumi's character to life and made substantial edits to the story. If you look back to before the anime, most people thought of Megumi as being similar to the one in the manga, at which point it becomes obvious why she was not as popular.

>>153447762
What the hell are you talking about? Looks like you're confusing me with someone else.

But to humor you, obviously the LN isn't a masterpiece, but going back to your point, it is still better than KM, which lacks the essential to make it emotionally gripping and investing since things are to happy-go-lucky there.

>>153448069
I'm pretty sure I'm having this discussion with this anon >>153447894 who is an Utaha hater and didn't address any of the points I raised to explain why KM is better written.

No. Tomoya still had feelings in volume 9, animeonlyfag. The only apparent change occurred when he worked on Megumi's scenario, so he might not have them anymore.

But go ahead and give direct source and quote of your quote. Would love to see where you pulled that from.

>>153448791
Tomoya literally told Megumi she was misunderstanding things and that he had no romantic feelings for Eriri.

>>153448925
I'm sure you take what Eriri says at face value too when she says she didn't have feelings for Tomoya.

Iori and Izumi saw the same thing Megumi did, but they must be wrong too despite Tomoya "insistence" that they are misinterpreting things. And Utaha, who saw and called it even before Tomoya wrote the scenario, must be wrong as well despite her perceptive eyes.

>>153448752
>none of the contrast between Megumi's usual flatness and her anger at the time

>implying such misinformative implications
Now this is a meme.

>>153449012
That's just what Maruto wants you to think. Because you look at this from a reader's point of view, you think too meta and automatically assume Tomoya is lying about not having feelings for Eriri, but then V11 rolls around and shows that he was telling the truth because, if he really did have feelings for Eriri, he would not have fallen for Megumi so easily. What he felt in V9 was no more than lust. If you assume he had feelings for Eriri just because he wrote her a scenario, you must also assume he had feelings for Utaha because he also wrote her a scenario, but as we all know, that is false.

>>153449234
Your stubbornness is mind-numbing. How man times does the author have to hint and hammer it down until you see what it was? Tomoya wasn't being truthful at all. And yes, Tomoya can be smitten by a girl that he's fond it after spending a lot of time together. There's nothing that says he can't have lingering romantic feelings for an old flame, but come to like someone else later at the same time. Especially for harem MCs, obviously.

Tomoya said that this was the scene where the Meguri route diverged from the Eriri route. For him to still have feelings for Eriri when he's in the Megumi route would be blasphemy, especially when Megumi said that she hated how fickle VN protagonists were. It's obvious Tomoya meant that Eriri's betrayal made him lose his love for her.

>>153449626
Where? Give quotes. I hope it's not from chapter 7 cause it would be stupid to apply an allusion using meta talk to reality. Even then, the meta talk would only say that the MC hasn't decided on what his feelings for Eriri is at that point. But the choices past that would diverge to either Megumi route or Eriri's route depending.

>>153449771
In Japanese? Those parts weren't translated. In the game he's making the MC isn't even an otaku and it's just a really similar situation to what happened in V6 where he abandoned his school festival activities for Eriri rather than the game.

>>153449889
So you can't prove it and it's just your word until someone translates it. For something that important, no one has mentioned it until you did just now. Not even other LNfags. How strange.

>>153449956
So do you want the original Japanese or the translation?

>>153449866
I'm an Utahafag and I think KM is inferior. It's quite depressing to see how those arguing for KM could only muster to basically say no drama and claim better writing just because as their evidence.

>>153450007
With not both? Transcript too.

>>153450073
A similar claim could be made that KM lacks a critical element, therefore has a serious flaw that makes it impossible to be better than the main story.

What do you think they are?

>>153450157
One could claim the same in reverse and even go to say that the very same fandom pays little heed to KM for a reason.

>>153450266
Isn't that just a brief and simplified summary? How do you expect people to tell if it's legit without moonrues to check the transcript.

>>153450411
No, the fanbase is majority of Megumifags. Utahafags don't even come close. Megumifags have no reason to think it's better, especially not shipperfags or those who like how Saekano is.

Yeah okay.

Megumi and Eriri's starting friendship is a mystery that's yet to be truly explore. That isn't a flaw to throw the whole writing under the bus with. The writing between them is more than fine and still better than what Utaha has with Mayu, which is barely much and doesn't have enough character building, unlike what Megumi and Eriri has to deal with.

>>153450541
Excluding yourself since you clearly aren't one of them.

>>153450617

And here are the quotes for the translation.

>>153450620
The real flaw is that the LN is in first person POV and it's impossible to build Eriri and Megumi's friendship from Tomoya's POV. When you have more than two people talking in a LN things get chaotic quickly. Koisuru Metronome has the advantage of being a manga. Maruto's done about as much as he can do with his medium, and we'll have to wait until the anime to really judge.

>>153450656
The meta talk is supposed to reflect reality. That's the whole point. The implication is that what happens in V6 leads to Eriri leaving, which leads to Tomoya falling out of love.

>>153450718
If Tomoya's PoV was a flaw that makes the writing terrible like you claim, then the opinions and ratings the LN has should be on the bad side. But it isn't. You are grasping at straws.

>>153450734
It doesn't imply that anywhere. You know that you were supposed to show lines that has Tomoya saying he doesn't have feelings for her anymore because of what happened in volume 7, right? What you have doesn't say that explicitly or implicitly anywhere.

>>153450751
But they are, for Volumes 9 and 10 at least. It would be really easy to feature screentime for Eriri and Utaha in a manga, but since this is a LN, they're shoved into the story. But this is about Eriri and Megumi's friendship, and the truth is that much of it was developed in the timeskip between V4 and V5, and the Japanese audience is just pretty forgiving for this.

>>153450854
No, I was supposed to provide lines on how that scene was where Megumi and Eriri's routes diverged. I did that. I said that he meant that Eriri's betrayal made him fall out of love. I never said that he outright said it.

>>153450866
>30+ chapters
>Utaha and Mayu are just now starting to get to know each other

Uh huh. It's not like Megumi and Eriri were totally devoid of interaction. There's their shopping trip in V5 and their intimate girls' talks in V6. The latter one I'm not too sure about, but I believe in one talk Eriri asks Megumi what Tomoya is to her, and in the other talk she apologizes to Megumi for delaying the game.

>>153450884
What you did was pointless. In fact, you are wrong. The scenario includes Eriri leaving MC and Meguri and has events where Eriri and Meguri make up, just like in reality. So Eriri did leave in Eriri's route. In reality, that translates to Tomoya still has feelings for Eriri after she left. This was pointed out multiple times by Megumi and other people around Tomoya.

>>153451012
If things progressed the same way after the fireplace event, then Eriri's departure would be the diverging point, not the fireplace event. But they don't. Just because Eriri leaves in both routes doesn't mean she leaves the same way. The way she leaves in Volume 9's scenario seems more favorable with Tomoya than what actually happened.

But what the hell, it's been a long time since I've read Volume 9 and the ones before it, so I guess I'll concede. We'll see for certain who's right in Volume 12.

>>153451062
Of course they would, Eriri and Utaha are constantly working together while Eriri and Megumi are distant at school. It was never stated that Eriri was closer to Megumi than she was to Utaha.

>>153451366
So? That just means her bond with Utaha is even deeper than that. You don't think Eriri is closer to Megumi than she is to Tomoya, do you?

>>153450858
You are saying whatever to help your case. And it's like you neglect Girl Side that covered developed their relationship to where they could be friends again, but still need reconciling, which will be obviously used for part of the climax.

>>153450866
Not entirely correct. They had some moments before Megumi stayed over, it's when Eriri was practicing using Megumi as her model. The mystery is the lack of show and tell.

Eriri teaching Megumi programming and the two staying up late to work on the game allowed them to bond and was the beginning factor that led them to become best friends. But the real question is why Eriri would be so nice to Megumi and even bond with her? This is where the mystery part comes in. That's the missing part that could be explored in a SS. Moving past that, their interactions are not many, but subtle and enough to form a pairing with enough subtext.

Megumi thinks of Eriri as a best friend since the two started to hang out, but even so there are thing she won't understand, that is, when it involved matters related to being a Creator. And that's a major attribute that led to the drama the two were in, which was initialized by Megumi herself.

What Eriri and have Utaha have is different. They understand each other on a similar level because they are Creators, but they aren't exactly best friends. Not like the way Eriri and Megumi sees and treat each other. Utaha has a simple understanding, so she can get along despite the b ad blood between them. With Megumi and Eriri, the two became friends the old fashion way. GS2 proves that and shows how much they mean to each other. It's like having a part of the puzzle missing that shows and tells how they started to be friendly, but the rest of the puzzle that led to them bonding and becoming best friends are there.

It's absurd to throw the writing over the bridge just because that piece is missing when the rest of the writing is up to code.

>>153451249
See:
MC: Well, aren’t you a bit too gung-ho for this? You might have to give up on a lot of things, you know,
Right now, Eriri was with me.
No matter how one looked at it, that resolute decision was strange and sudden.
Eriri: That’s not it. I’m doing so I don’t have to give up on everything. That includes my dreams, my friendship, and you, right?
She gave a clear smile, like she hadn’t thought about what was going to happen after this.
Eriri: Right. This isn’t a detour. It’s the right path.
MC: Though I can’t see that at all.
Eriri: You’ll see it in the future. No mistaking it.
MC: You sure think highly of yourself.
Eriri: It’s a bit too late to be saying that.
MC: …Well, it’s true you were always like that since way back.
After being dragged around by her for more than ten years, I could do nothing but flash a bitter smile and shrug.
Eriri: But you like that part of me right?
MC: Like I could go out with you.
But it was exactly like she said it was.
MC: Anyway, let’s go already. Meguri…everyone else is waiting.
Eriri: It’s been a while. I wonder if they’re doing well.
MC: See for yourself.
I turned my back to her to hide my embarrassment and walked away. She was going to follow me anyway. That had been our fate for over ten years.
Eriri: Hey, MC.
MC: Huh?
I turned my head around after hearing her call out to me. She was staring at me intensely. Her hair flowing, she had the biggest smile I had seen on her.
Eriri: I’ll definitely make you go out with me. For life.

Tomoya kept it that way because he respects Eriri's passion and dream as a Creator, but also feelings that include the Tomoya. It would be a disservice and insult to her and Meguri if he forced himself to make the departure event the diverging point between Meguri and Eriri route. It would even make Meguri seem like a rebound girl.

I think the anime answers this part. She's impressed Megumi would even bother working on the game too.

>>153451609
That scene is in the LN too.

>>153451617
You are being asinine. The part that is missing is fairly minor and doesn't break how the two of them started to become best friends. GS2 development between Megumi and Eriri was just as intense as Eriri and Utaha's development. Actually more since they are more than just buds like Eriri and Utaha are, so hurt and emotions that goes into it is deeper. Spending a whole day and night together, with girl talk painted a typical, but ideal best friend relationship. That's something Eriri and Utaha don't share beyond an understanding that's close, but not deeply intimate.
