Rev up that denial. Vol 11 already blew the Megumifags who ship Tomoya and Megumi the fuck out. Date is cancelled and she isn't his main heroine, by her own admission. Tomoya is going a different way than her.

Megumi doesn't like him romantically anyways and Tomoya still loves Eriri.

A good portion of the BD buyers are LN readers, and pissing them off is guaranteed bad press.

>>154556123
That's rarely ever true. Most of the time fans who are hooked from seeing it for the first time buys them. In this case, Saekano LN sells like, what, millions, but anime only sold some thousands? Practically all LN adaptations of popular series have similar sales or worse. One can conclude the average LN readers don't buy anime adaptations since it is inferior to the source material and isn't even canon in the first place. Collectors and hardcore fans likely would, though. In any event, one should assume LN fans know fully well that Megumi's route is set in stone, so there's no reason for Megumi's fans to think vol.12 will lock in Eriri route for good.

>>154556646
The Saekano LNs only average 30k. The first volume of the BDs sold 13k. It's clear they're a significant portion, and many people have been clamoring for V11 to be adapted.

>>154554285
We don't know if he is right or not. We shouldn't shitpost him.

>>154557057
>30k
That doesn't sound right for a popular LN. What are the total combined sales for all the LNs and not weekly sales?

>>154557476
Well, that number was from weekly sales, where the volumes top off at 30k, but the LN sales do seem to have dropped off a bit after V7.

Nips don't care about Eriri. Even if she "wins" in the upcoming novel, Megumi will be the one to truly win in the end. I wouldn't put it past Maruto to bring Eririfags up only to crush them for good in the end-it'll just make Megumi's victory sweeter.

>>154558910
Maruto did say that he was going to release another volume while the anime was airing even thought there's usually a four month gap between volumes.

Utaha should have been the main rival to Megumi and not Eriri. If Tomoya was less of a faggot, we could have had fun Monogatari-like interactions. Eriri fucking sucks and isn't fun at all.

>>154559159
Man, that would be great. It'd mean less of those cute TomoyaxMegumi moments and tolerating Yuipollfag for a few more months, but those Eririfag tears would be glorious.

Utaha is literally the only reason besides Megumi this series is followed at all. It would only require some tweaking in the dynamic of the group and the MC to make it work instead of sidelining her to focus on a generic tsundere no one cares about.

Chihiro was 7th in the last poll I remember. Still not high for a winning heroine though.

Chemistry with Megumi is needed to have a good love triangle or else you don't feel pity for the loser.

>>154559867
If I am sperging with those innocuous posts then what would the average Eririfag be?

>>154559380
In what possible way could Utaha even be a rival to Megumi? As volume 11 showed, she's too strong and independent to be heroine material. She doesn't have the sort of personality who could be Megumi's friend either, much less is weak enough to promote emotional drama.

>>154559972
Being a deluded fanboy and picking fights is the complete opposite of that.

>>154559779
Last I heard everything he had done since then was cancelled. Also he was pretty much a straight up failure before that, only having one series that runs for a couple of years is pretty unlikely to set someone for life.

Eriri has that and much more. She's the reason why GS2 happened. In fact, both GS and GS2 mainly came to be because of Eriri. And they're cute as they are compelling plot.

>>154559948
>love triangle

This is where this series failed. It started off as harem and then becomes a love triangle involving the least popular and likeable girl and making the second most popular girl irrelevant. Girls in a harem don't need to have good interactions with one another, the work is always done through their relationship with the MC.

>>154559981
You'd have to fix Tomoya's personality first, because she does have weaknesses, they're just not apparent to his dense-ass mind.

>>154560018
Sorry, but this isn't your hugbox.

>>154560173
Didn't say it was. That's not even the point and you were the one who tried to play all innocent to being a fanboy who thinks his opinions are facts. Nice try.

>>154560051
After Kanon, Haqua, Ayumi, Shiori, Tenri, and Elsie.

>>154560173
If you need to change characters to suit your needs so that Utaha can be a heroine and rival, then everything is a moot point. You have to change Megumi and Eriri's character as well.

You aren't Maruto, you only have headcanon.

>>154560261

They are all better than Chihiro is. Of course all the other girls in the series are also better than Chihiro too.

>>154560173
>Girls in a harem don't need to have good interactions with one another, the work is always done through their relationship with the MC

But then you don't feel sympathy for the heroine when they lose. It's also necessary for Megumi to be close to the other heroines tor conflict to happen. If Utaha were the main rival, Megumi wouldn't hesitate to crush her and take Tomoya for herself.

>>154560344
But she's like a real normal girl and stuff.

>>154560433
Exactly.

That's why she's shit.

>>154560422
Except he did not. Eriri and Utaha are real rivals, not friends. What Eriri and Megumi have is real friendship and rivals-to-be as love interests. And their friendship was foreshadowed and built up in earlier volumes.

>>154560422
Utaha has a creator relationship with Eriri while Megumi is her normal best friend. Eriri is supposed to mirror Tomoya here where they both start liking Megumi for being their first normal friend when all their previous friends were weirdos.

>>154559772

Plenty of people have plenty of reasons to hate Utaha. Doesn't help you are contributing factor ever since you began shitposting as a vocal Utahafag out of nowhere.

What's with the bobcut vs twintails trend?

>>154560376
Who cares, V12 and S2 were going to ruin the threads anyway. Wednesday is when we'll really get a taste of it when some of the illustrations leak.

>>154560533
You just can't handle a real woman. And neither could most people inside and outside the manga.

>>154560551
>>154560571
Eriri and Utaha have an infinitely more compelling relationship, crafted since volume 1. Maruto barely fleshed out the friendship Megumi and Eriri have and falls flat.

>>154560599
Utaha is the least hateable girl in the cast. Historically, people had more issues with Eriri, Michiru and Megumi.

>>154560737
Frenemies with more emphasis on squabbling enemies is hardly compelling. They are creators in different fields and are good at what they do. Respect is the only thing they seldom shows itself. And that is hardly developed any further as well. Megumi and Eriri's relationship isn't perfectly developed, but they became friends and we know why. They at least spend time together doing things friends would do.

The fact Utaha warned Megumi ahead of time about that implies it could lead to being hurt, but still she decided to be friends anyways gives more meaning to the relationship she has with Eriri.

>>154559422

>>154560737
The relationship is underdeveloped but there's enough to tell they're intimate. There's also added tension in how Megumi and Eriri hesitate to make a winning move on the love triangle while neither Eriri nor Utaha would hesitate to win.

>>154560716
I've handled real women before. IRL you need to compromise, at least if you're not like Brad Pitt or some shit.

If I'm reading a fucking manga I'll go with someone who is unrealistically likable.

>>154560619
>bobcut - gives off a normal girl look, requires little preparation and is natural
>twintails - gives off a princess girl look, requires preparation to do and represents fantasy

>>154560958
Utaha warned Megumi because she knows and understands Eriri well. She understands her well because she has known and dealt with her longer and shares many characteristics with her. Not to mention they overcome trials together as well. Little details like these give a relationship more dimension regardless of how nice and friendly they would normally act. We as readers have no reason to feel for Megumi and Eriri's emotions in GS2 when the author never bothered to SHOW, not TELL us how they became so close and significant for each other.

>>154561030
Not Yuipollfag. Even if it is the last volume and Megumi wins without a reasonable doubt he will find a way to deny it.

>>154561291
Eriri admired how much Megumi cared for the game. You can't compare that to some impersonal college project.

>>154561166
Utaha only understands Eriri because she's a fellow creator and knows the sort of person she's like. Megumi doesn't have the same understanding and that is became a plot point in itself, but that doesn't make her any less of a friend. Eriri cares much more for Megumi than she does Utaha and she actually is friendly with her because they became comrades and gotten close.

Maruto did the little things that matters, he didn't spent a whole episode on it. People become friends for all sorts of reasons and it doesn't have to be deep. What's more important is developing the friendship and Maruto does that and hasn't stopped yet.

>>154561384

Of course not, Megumi is always the one who makes the drastic design changes. He didn't even come up with the idea to get long hair.

So basically you are saying that Eriri will win the bowl, then get hit by a car and die, thus allowing some other girl to win because best girl is dead?

Sounds plausible.

>>154559822
Eriri has her hair in twintails and she has a fang. It is pretty clear who is the cutest of the three.

Megumi looks mediocre. There is absolutely nothing special about her... and Utaha is just your regular long blackhaired snarky type girl. They are pretty standard and boring.

>>154562248
Why didn't she do any of this before? What did Tomoya actually do?

>>154562675
Kill yourself Eririfag. Blonde twintails is literally the most generic, uninspired and boring design there is.

>>154540904
Im Eririfag but i believe Megumi will win.

Its just typical drama that will make the winner have an obstacle. Megumi will triumph in the end.

But still, Eriri is obviously best girl.
