Fafner thread
蒼穹のファフナー
Who pitches and who catches? I figure Soushi for a bossy bottom, but fandom seems to like him topping.
>>2997982
I can see it working both ways but I prefer Soushi topping as well.
It's a favorite pairing of mine.
The Minashiro family has boundary issues.
>>2998556
I think this is the first time I see Soushi's father in fanart.
So after last episode I'm pretty sure Sky-kun would start assimilating people mid-coitus, but how about Soushi and Kazuki?
Also, >>>/y/2224276
>>2998672
I'm still on the second episode of the new season, taking my time as I know it will probably end up breaking my heart.
>>2998674
You're missing out. Watching along with people is at least 10% of the fun.
>>2998710
Yeah, I know but I'd rather prepare myself for the incoming tragedy that is unavoidable anyway. If there is one thing that Fafner taught me is that it knows how to do tragedy.
Picture related, Left of Right is one of the saddest things ever.
>>2998726
You shall soon learn [ something about bad things happening when you act on your hopes ].
>>2998727
I just read that in Soushi's voice.
>>2998729
Tiny Nicht art melts my heart every time.
>>2998731
I know, right.
One thing I'm grateful for in Exodus, finally we get to see Soushi wearing a pilot suit in the actual series. I've waited years for this, what with the ED of the first season and all.
>>2998733
He wore one for a little bit in Right of Left. But yes, Separation's ten-year tease has finally paid off and it's lovely.
>>2998735
Soushi's civilian clothes in the first season looked weirdly gay.
>>2998737
>weirdly
>>2998738
It's every bit as gay as I remembered it, that's good to know. It wouldn't be half as gay if it wasn't sleeveless.
More tiny Mark Nitch
>>2998748
Something about Nicht's oversized hands just make it great for hugs.
>>2998741
It's the choker that makes it for me.
>>2998779
Now that you mentionit, Nicht is rather cute.
Ah yes, the choker, about as gay as it gets.
I think I'll marathon this season until I catch up...may god help my poor heart.
>>2994347
Can't believe this thread was up for a month and I didn't see it. I look forward to each new episode each week.
>>2997982
I can't see Soushi topping unless we are talking about Sein and Nicht docking, because Nicht!Soushi is a beast. But the rest of the time he is so awkward and stiff, he wouldn't know where to start.
Kazuki is clumsy too, but more physical. I bet he'll be very sweet and eager to please.
>>2999235
I can easily see them becoming a reversible couple, at least after a while but at first I suspect that Soushi would top. True, he is very awkward indeed (that scene in the first season in his room is hilarious) but given the whole childhood trauma with his eye, Kazuki would probably freak out over doing anything that might hurt Soushi.
Once they get over that it and after plenty of persuation Kazuki could very well top.
>>2999235
>Kazuki spent the trip to Srinegar napping instead of being fucked by dom-Soushi via Crossing
Why.
>>2999279
The whole 'wake me up when we get there' speech made it seem as if they are used to sleeping together, though.
>>2999262
Hell yes, reversible couples are the best.
I think that, by Exodus, they are both already over their childhood traumas. They seem totally at ease with each other.
>that scene in the first season in his room is hilarious
>LOOK. THERE'S A BED.
Real subtle, Soushi.
>>2999546
I agree, by Exodus they are so at ease with each other that it is beautiful to behold. But I doubt they would wait that long until having sex.
And had Kazuki looked under said bed he might find naked pictures of himself, nothing can convince me Soushi was not taking footage each time Kazuki put on the pilot suit.
>>2999568
Easier to just buy the photos from Hazamama.
>>2999572
True but probably not half as fun. I can even see Soushi trying to convince Kazuki that such pictures are for the purposes of making sure everything is well with the pilots' physical condition.
>>2999573
The cavity searches, too.
>>2999575
Just imagine Kazuki going all, "those cavity checks are really embarrassing..." and all the other pilots having no idea what he's talking about. And then realization sinks in.
>>2999577
Maya would cover for the awkward silence and yell at Soushi later.
>>2999585
This reminds me of when Maya and Soushi lept butting heads in the first season.There's this one time Maya is rock climbing and sees Soushi standing at the top of the cliff. For one second it seemed like he was about to step on her hands.
>>2999591
That would be pretty grim, even for grave-defiling Soushi.
>>2999594
He'd never actually do it but if I were Maya, I'd be a bit worried. Soushi's death glare can do that to one.
I sorta like Sui. Did you know he's voiced by Kensho Ono?
Sei is my favorite new generation pilot.
>>2999609
Mine is [spoiler]Mimka[/spoiler] though.
Any good fanart on twitter since the new episode?
>>2999813
It's quiet so far.
Misao is way too cute.
It's a pity he showed up so late. At the pace things are going, he's probably going to do little more than fight in the background.
>>3000200
Misao got a whole movie to himself.
>>3000270
You mean he "only" got a whole movie.
>>3000794
Honest to goodness I mistook this for Kei from MJP.
Akira was fucking CUTE AH FUCK CUUUTE!
>tfw no fics where Misao is unused to being around other humans in this body and gets "must assimilate" confused with "must fuck" and genki'ly sluts his way across Tatsumiya
>>3001043
He might have not been the smartest or the most skilled, but he was endearing.
We'll always remember his courage, his honesty, and his mediocre curry.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who found this scene strangely erotic.
So, has this show gotten popular enough with the type that frequents this board, or has the carryover from /m/ visitors from the IBO threads kept it going?
Cause I'd kinda like to start a general /m/ boys thread if people would be interested
>>3002782
I've been into Fafner long before IBO was ever dreamt of.
>>3002782
/cm/ has always loved /m/, and Fafner is twelve years older than IBO.
A /m/iscellaneous thread would probably do alright, though, if the Gundam boys general is any indication.
>>3002782
I only got into Fafner right before Exodus came out, but I love it. I was a bit hyped about IBO at first, but it just doesn't compare.
>>3002820
I like IBO as well but Fafner is special, by now I feel connected to every single character which is why it seeing them suffer horribly, as they do, becomes very painful.
Has anyone read the novel? I was surprised at how much I'm enjoying it. Some aspects of it bother me a bit, like Maya being a borderline psychic but overall it's very interesting.
>>3002782
I originally got into Fafner back when they first started putting out the dub on DVDs. I bought each one when it came out because I had dial up internet and couldn't watch it online. Fanart for Fafner was sparce because pixiv wasn't a regular thing so you had to browse through this japanese search website that listed Fafner fanartists. I had to do the same thing for FMA now that I think about it. Most of them took down their art after a while though, so it was so strange being in an empty fandom. It's even stranger that there's an active fandom now that unironically watches it, since Fafner was the butt of a lot of /m/ jokes back in the day.
I frequent the IBO thread more than this one though, I'm really enjoying it though I feel like it's been dragging the last few episodes. I think that general gay robot shows have become popular in recent years because of Code Geass, which I am completely ok with. I just want more fanart and fanfics, I only had to wait about 10 years to get it.
Merry Soushimas.
I miss them. We need a show about the coats?
>>3006932
Damn, those coats. I wish we had seen more of them.
Also, talking about coats, I loved how everyone guessed Misao was getting the fourth one.
>>3007007
The coats were amazing indeed.
coat
Heard this is actually legit, canon gay. How long do I have to watch before the homo kicks in?
>>3012159
Someone was fucking with you. It's just bromantic.
>>3012159
It had enough subtext to warrant its own homoerotic page on tvtropes but no, it's not canonically gay.
It also has very gay artwork and a hilarious character song: http://koorinokokoro.tumblr.com/post/113340303938/the-most-subtle-song-of-all-times
>>3012370
Twenty minutes?
>>3012379
That and the very gay artwork, image related.
I don't consider Fafner gay since it also has lolis and milfs.
>immortal rock-alien with too much hair keels over and regenerates as a baby boy immortal rock-alien
>baby boy immortal rock-alien gets raised by three other good immortal rock-aliens
>they all fight bad rock-aliens that want to take over the Earth
All I want is stupid Soushi Universe crossover fanart, but I think the overlap between these fandoms is nonexistent.
>misao/kouyou is the secondary homo pairing
Of all the shit I never expected going into Exodus.
>>3017559
I was actually crossing my fingers for it.
Festum who became a cute boy x cute boy who became a Festum. It's like poetry.
This coat also avaliable in DILF size.
>>2999262
Those are some interesting tan lines
>Fafner is not over!
>REALLY IMPORTANT announcement in December!
Heh. See you in 2020.
>>3029428
There is an ongoing manga, I have the first volumes but have yet to start it.
Not to be confused with the ugly looking first manga, this one is brand new.

Poor Dr. Toumi never got her hands on this.
