Shame on you.

Who cares, Mamori is a bitch who has dug a hole so deep she'll never deserve Mirei now.

>>1924096
And why is that?

>>1924096
Well then, what did she say in the slap scene? (Waiting for Senkutsu subs. No way I'm watching the light beams version.)

>>1924096
She did nothing wrong though.
Mirei didn't pay much attention to that slap so why are you? It was intended to be a comedic moment.

It's the oldest gag in the book. Somebody accidentally gropes the girl/takes off her clothes to share warmth/in any other way compromises her virginity, she misunderstands and overreacts.

>>1924096
she just slapped her. quit whinning.

>>1924103
And later Mamori saved Mirei's life.
Why are people getting mad again?

>>1924102
But she did that before and she just screamed and act all embarassed

>>1924109
I don't remember Mirei completely undressing them both (aside from panties) and then cuddling naked in any of the previous episodes.

This was best episode so far

>>1924104
Dunno. I sometimes get the impression that "getting angry over _____" is a hobby for some people.

Wow Mirei can actually talk.

I'll have to give this episode a 10/10, shame about the QUALITY, it could have been a 100/10 episode.

>>1924098
Well I can't really get mad at Virgin for overreacting here. That scene sure looked like wet post-sex cuddle+panties.

>>1924116
>That scene sure looked like wet post-sex cuddle+panties.
Exactly why there was no point in overreacting.

Thankfully the nips know Mamori did nothing wrong and keep making cute Miremamo fanart

>>1924121
They haven't moved past second base. Its to early to score a full point. And I call her Virgin for a reason.

>>1924113
Yeah, it's started to really delve into how Mirei and Mamori will come together (no pun intended). The Lady Lady drive scene was awesome to see too. It's too bad they couldn't do more below the belt stuff, but I guess it's still only an ecchi series.

Just in general, I love how Lady Lady are referred to as one person and that their relationship is a firm part of their characters right from the start. No other couple from the games, manga, or show are going to be able to have the same kind of deep connection since they're set up to be interchangeable, or they have to be seen going through the progression of unfamiliarity to devotion like MireiMamo. Unless there are some equivalent lesbian senpai in the games, but I kind of doubt it.

Angry pussy.

>>1924187
Kinda dissapointed that her hairpin didn't change according to her mood like in the promo art

>>1924101
It was actually a very crucial moment contributing to her not revealing information she knew. When Mamori asked her about that thing that attacked them Mirei hesitated. It's not even funny watching all these nails in this "ship's" coffin. Not to mention that if everything continues down the cliched line Mirei will end up dead, having sacrificed herself to save Mamori. Fuck this show.

>>1924211
>Mirei will end up dead, having sacrificed herself to save Mamori

The fuck are you getting that? If there is someone in risk of Dying is Akira.

i heard something about "the 5th island" in this episode (haven't watched it). anyone care to elaborate a bit?

>>1924215
I don't think Mirei will die either. The entire series seems to be setting up for Mamori to become the protector of Mirei instead of the other way around and if Mirei died that would be a pretty big fuck up.

>>1924217
How about reading premise of the project?

>>1924217
Mermaid, Bhikkuni, Siren and two unnamed islands. We've known this since the start.

>>1924218
does it has any connection to the VD games?.... i am fearful..

>>1924165
I liked it. The little extra kiss at the end also adds a bit more intimacy that I love about this couple.

>>1924226
I like the little kiss just before transformation because it's sort of a "just kidding, we didn't actually need to do this to transform but we did anyway".

So mirei is a clone of super soldier mirei?

Regarding Mirei's past/flashbacks.
I feel a bit better now that when Mirei goes into flashback again in episode 9, they probably won't show her or Momoka getting raped since they'll probably focus on the experiments they went through. But at the same time I'm not really looking to seeing Mirei get experimented on either.

But then she would know about the artificial Exsta factory

no MireMamo drive scenes this week?

>>1924246
We are at the obligatory main characters are having an issue with each other plot point.

>>1924230

Jeez, talking about being paranoid. You're like the /u/ version of a soccer mom.

>>1924246
Mirei was too busy being slapped by Mamori and mutating.

>>1924229
>we make this look so easy and fabulous

>>1924103
>>1924096
Wasn't that because Mamori was embarrassed or something?

Also some peopel keep saying Mamori transformed because she thought of Akira. Any truth to that?

>>1924251
Mamori remembered the words Akira spoke to her about not giving up hope, and that's what allowed her to transform.
Why don't you watch the episode before discussing it?

>>1924251
>Also some peopel keep saying Mamori transformed because she thought of Akira. Any truth to that?

She remembered Akira telling her not to give up hope. And she transformed to protect Mirei.

>>1924252
if i'm not mistaken Akira can mean "strength" and i think (and hope) that's the purpose of her character, not as a potential love interest.

>>1924255
Read the thread next time >>1924162

>>1924255
>>1924257
doesn't AKIRAmenai means never/don't give up?

>>1924268
>諦めない
Japanese doesn't work like this. Even by logic, it's in negative form anyway.

>>1924268
In the subbed, when Mamori was transforming and she said Akira it was translated as "hope"

>>1924250
In the end Rein got off by herself though lol

>>1924270
Please, at least rewatch the scene in question before posting.

How is it that we have such an important event as Mamori achieving a new form and it doesn't involve any lovin' at all, she just does it spontaneously because she had "hope"? The staff's priorities are fucked.
Mirei and Mamori's relationship just feels less and less intimate to me with each passing episode. Yeah Mamori worried about her in the end, that's nice, but nobody's watching this to see them be friends.

>>1924276
>nobody's watching this to see them be friends
Waifufags do, though. Brace up for the friendship end.

>>1924276
In the beggining they said the Exstar need to be in trance to drive. This does not always mean sexual stimulation. It can be other things too, but I guess sexual stimulation is the easiest way to achieve it in general.
Meifong drove by herself in the thought of money

>>1924270
>>1924268

Do you guys actually watch this anime?

>>1924278
Even if they want to prioritize that demographic, there's no need to be this extreme about it. I wouldn't even say that Mirei and Mamori have any subtext at this point. They could at the very least be giving us a Nanoha/Symphogear/Madoka level of relationship rather than this bullshit. Waifufags like those shows just fine.

>>1924281
Calm your tits. Don't be so anal about a mistake

>>1924282
Thing is, you can't have everything you want as you want it. Just wait until the end and then complain if they remain friends

>>1924085
I'm strangely repulsed...and yet attracted

>>1924281
Yeah, The speculah of late was beginning to get to /a/ levels of stupid. Best to avoid reading too much after people are done talking about the yuri.

>>1924289
Why repulsed though?

>>1924230
I see you're one of those people that's obsessed about the idea of Mirei getting raped in the past.

>>1924281
Seriously, it's like they didn't even watch previous episode and just skip to this episode instead.

So the important thing is that Mamori still deeply cares about Mirei right?

Only thing I am worried about is what happens when Mamori finds out Akira is a girl

Most of the side characters get actual romantic feelings, you give waifufags too much credit in influencing this kinda of show. Even a 'normal hetero' romance would most likely end with no romantic kiss. It is just how writers do it.

>>1924309
Hopefully some hints at what happens with Mamori and Akira?

>>1924228
That makes sense. She said she is 15, maybe her clone self has been activated for 15 years, but the woman she is a clone of is older, thus she is a 15 years old with a killer body.

>>1924145
this one is really good!

>>1924305
>Mamori still deeply cares about Mirei right?
Only as a friend and not at all in a romantic way.

>>1924310
The problem is that the main pairing of the thing doesn't have much chemistry, which is bad because they are the mains, they should be interesting so we can stand them having the spotlight for all episodes without it being a painful experience.

>>1924358
They're cute together if nothing else.
We will probably only see real development in the last two episodes.

>>1924358
Well that is bad writing but the two are still going to end up together.

People are expecting way too much from this show.

>>1924358
>painful experience
I don't feel it.

>>1924369
Im sure they'll shut their traps once the specials come out

>>1924356
So, like most animu MCs then?

>>1924391
For me is amusing the complains about how the characters behave. Since when "characters" are a strength in ecchi shows?

I'm not as hopeful now that Momoka will still be interested in Mirei.

Feels like she might be all business when she goes to the island, but I'm hoping that maybe she just doesn't know that it's Mirei that's causing the ruckus and when she finds out she'll change her plans.

So, I just watched up to episode 4 and I want to ask, does Mamori get better in the next episodes or is she still just a huge fucking idiot?

Commie does this too. I don't like Funi (nor Commie) english-fying all the terms of addressment, but I liked it even less when Commie changed the "Catch my body and soul" line in episode 5 to completely something else. Plus some other stuff too.

>>1924395
Since QB, it was great until they fucked it up. And Senran Kagura. And this show got the staff from both show. So yes, one of VD Mermaid's main strength is their characters.

Koihime Musou anime's also good, it's light, fun and entertaining. Very tame with the ecchi part though.

Not really annoying, China's worse.
It's not fair to call some character who really doesn't have much character traits to begin with, a "bitch" or "slut" .
(Referring to common insults I see).
Really for me I'm just neutral to Tokonome, there isn't anything to hate about her or like for that matter.

The way Merie always seems satisfied as long as Mamori's happy is really heart warming.
Wonder how it would go from here.

>>1924623
Truth be told people are probably really more annoyed with the writers than they are with Mamori herself.

All the promotional material shows Mirei and Mamori as incredibly close and obviously deeply in love and while Mirei has shown she has those feelings throughout the show, Mamori hasn't and after 8 episodes the peak of their relationship is still in episode 3.

>>1924572
It's implied that every wedding ceremony between all the official soldiers in the castle ends with them having sex on a giant circular bed.

>>1924625
Yeah, I get that.
The first two or three episodes had a progression going on with the relationship between Mamo and Merie.
Mamori questioning her "prince" actually being a girl and so on.
Then that pretty much was tossed when Akira made her debut to the dual.
Still, her and Merie aren't growing further apart but strangely the opposite (despite obstacles).
No doubt Momoka might spice up the plot.

The writing in this story shouldn't be taken too serious but it's an interesting concept despite being ecchi fanservice.

>>1924409
What is this exactly? A keychain?

>>1924640
It's a rubber stamp.

>>1924625
I wouldn't say that Mirei is definitely in love just yet. She certainly has a crush on Mamori, but she loves cute things and has a strong sense of justice that keeps her protecting Mamori.

>>1924660
Respect and loyalty don't make you blush like a schoolgirl every time you look at your senpai. Disregard Mirei actually being a schoolgirl.

>>1924661
Nor do they make you excited to get an opportunity to kiss the person, or make you jealous and angry when you see them lusting after someone else.

>>1924662
Eh, Mirei was never angry at Mamori/Akira for Mamori's lust towards the latter. Nor was she exceptionally jealous. Possessive, maybe.

>>1924663
That's exactly what jealousy is.

>>1924665
>Nor was she exceptionally jealous.
>exceptionally jealous
>exceptionally

>>1924662
Mirie only shows signs of bitter jealousy at least twice but she's obviously satisfied with Mamo's crush since it keeps Mamori happy.

Just look at her smiling.

>>1924687
They're not mutually exclusive feelings. She can be jealous that Mamori's attention is not on her while but at the same time be glad that at least she's happy and distracted from her situation. They both show her love and it's part of what makes Mirei such a good person.

>>1924663
>>1924687
Mirei showed some very mild annoyance when Mamori first put the posters up and then again when she shared her bed with Heel Hold. That's literally it. And she's always totally fine with it in the end.
Mirei is never gonna do anything to take their relationship to the next level, though she'll be receptive if Mamori does something. So the only hope is if Mamori wakes the fuck up, but that's not looking very likely at all at the moment.

>>1924660

Yeah that's bullshit. A little jealousy is not a bad thing at all, it's perfectly normal and healthy as long as it doesn't go overboard. Romantic love definitely has a component of possessiveness and a relationship where that's completely missing just seems really odd.

>>1924652
Yeah, I don't even get that "in love" vibe from her yet but many here seems to think that she already is in love since earlier episodes and get pretty mad because Mamori doesn't feel the same.

>>1924730
Have we seen the same thing? >>1924085

>>1924732
Pretty sure people get mad because of Mamori's obtuseness. It's not like she doesn't like Mirei, she just doesn't pay any attention to Mirei's signs of affection and pretends she's >heterosexual. I think she only reciprocated twice, once in episode 3 and once in episode 8.

>>1924727
I think they are versatile like them being both Exstar and Liberator

>>1924731
Agreed. Jealousy and possessiveness are unquestionably a part of love because it shows that you care and that the person is important to you.

What matters is how the person acts on those feelings. Mirei has never used her feelings of jealousy as an excuse to abuse Mamori and that's the important difference between a good person and a bad person.

>>1924731
Except that it was pointed out that she does get jealous, and other soft, romantic behaviors she showers upon Mamori every now and then. But the anal-retentives are going, "Nooo! That is not enough, if she ain't burning down the whole island if Mamori so much as looks at someone else."

>>1924735
I don't think she pretends to be hetero. She has literally drive into the sight of a girl, plus Mirei has made her drive in the past too.
But she's too innocent yet to develop a proper sexual relationship imo. She's not mature yet

>>1924733
Yes. Literally every time Lady Lady show up, Rain is leading and J is following. Rain even straight up tells J to commence the fucking.

>>1924741
Point is, she should either accept and reciprocate Mirei's affection or deny it and set the boundary between them. Instead she's just being her usual dumb MC self. Which is expected, considering her vi-vi-virgin personality, but still kind of annoying.

>>1924741
I agree that I think it's less "pretending to be hetero" and more "the concept of homosexuality hasn't entered her brain yet". Of course I don't know what it's like to grow up gay so I can't really comment on what sort of mental processes you might go through.

>>1924749
Pretty sure any sane person would realize that something isn't right when they have an orgasm at the mere sight of a naked person of the same sex.

>>1924732
Mirei is more than in love. For not even a real life partner will treat a lover 50% half as good as she does, of their own will. She puts them all to shame, really. The amount of needing to reach into one's ass, just to feel cynical is mind-boggling.

>>1924738
Anyhow, Mirei is quite clearly romantically attracted to Mamori. I don't know how anyone could not see that without purposely doing mental gymnastics around it. That is settled.

Mamori, on the other hand is a different story for now, but we are getting there or at least some spicy drama involving Momoka. Episode 9 is sure to be exciting!

>>1924753
Yeah, there's really no question about how Mirei feels. The sticking point is whether Mamori will ever reciprocate and whether the writers are actually going to write a mutual romance ending.

>>1924762
>I don't know how anyone could not see that without purposely doing mental gymnastics around it.
One of the symptoms of autism is the inability to properly empathise and pick up on social and emotional cues.

>>1924744
You know people don't usually are black or white like this. And they also need time to realise their feelings too. It's not just a button that you either turn it on or off. She doesn't even realise Mirei likes her, let alone her own feelings to tell Mirei to back off

>>1924770
>She doesn't even realise Mirei likes her
And this is exactly why people are mad.
At some point the excuse of being a MC in an ecchi anime just stops working.

>>1924753
> For not even a real life partner will treat a lover 50% half as good as she does, of their own will.
You're clearly over-exaggerating. Either that or you socialize with people of questionable world views. Caring about your loved ones isn't something extraordinary.

>>1924735
For someone like virgin, how could you really expect her to notice Mirei's crush right away?

>>1924749
I think it's called heteronormity

>>1924774
>right away
We're eight episodes in.

>>1924774
I don't think Mamori would instantly pick up on Mirei's feelings, but at the point that they're at now I think even the most dense person has to realise "this person likes me as more than just a friend".

She must be close though, as if she wasn't somewhat aware of it I don't think she would be worried that Mirei might have done something enough to slap her.

>>1924778
People already getting mad at her ever since she has a crush on Akira and that time MireiMamo barely knew each other.

>>1924753
>For not even a real life partner will treat a lover 50% half as good as she does, of their own will.
Where did you even get this fact?

>>1924786
Most people who are married for a few years are no longer lovey dovey. It looks like they are tired of each other.

>>1924784
People got mad about that because it was inconsistent with the development of the first 3 episodes.

>>1924771
It seems the japanese audience doesn't complain enough, cause anime studios keep doing this all the time and never change.

>>1924798
People don't like typical shoujo manga romance progression, more news at 11. At least VD is very light with it's drama.

>>1924619
Too bad I can't use Twitter's tag system properly. I don't even know if they have a good tagging system for searching for anime fanarts and most artists I see don't add hashtags to their art, they just post it with some short comment.

>>1924797
Then the comparison is stupid because Mirei and Mamori only know each other for weeks.

Why is everyone bitching about Mamori?

>>1924907
Did you watch any of the recent episodes? She totally disregards Mirei's feelings and is generally a total bitch.

>>1924907
She came down with a bad case of Generic Protagonist Obtuseness Syndrome.

>>1924907
I don't hate her but I don't get how her brain works.

Mirei made her cum a billion times, grabbed her tits, rubbed nipples, touched her pussy. Mamori came from dry humping Mirei's thigh.

Suddenly she slaps her because they're half naked and can't drive because of an enemy? Those things already happened before.

Going from the concept of girls turning into weapons, is this anything like utena?

>>1924911
Because she's a retard that's why. Also this obsession with Akira is ruining a lot of things going on. Something needs to change next episode, and soon

>>1924909
She legit tried to project Mirei last episode, so she does care about her

>>1924917
>is this anything like utena?

Well the love interest of the MC is someone most of us would like to punch in the face so yeah it's like Utena

No surprise here.

Only hope now is that the relationship between Mirei and Mamori gets better, and so far I don't see that happening

>>1924911
Maybe she thought Mirei took advantage while she was unconscious. But then quickly realized Mirei wouldn't do that hence the sorry I was surprised thing. At least that's the closest sense I can make of it.

>>1924920
But unlike Anthy she never gets bitchslapped. I hope Momoka will remedy to this.

>>1924911
Frankly, the one that I dont understand is the people that bitch about her for real. How hard is it to understand how her brain works? She's like an open book to other characters in VD. How the hell can we, the viewer, not to be able to understand her?

>>1924920
No one fucks their brother, so no. Nothing at all alike.

She's a sweet innocent girl, who hasn't figured her feelings fully out yet. How could you hate someone like that?

>>1924918
Right she wanted to protect her...because she's her friend.

>She didn't drive because she's doesn't feel the same way about her as Mirei does towards her.
>She slapped Mirei for getting her out of wet clothes and trying to keep her warm.
>She totally ignores Mirei's feeling a majority of the time because she's 'straight'.
>"mah pacifism"
>She's in love with a man who is actually a woman and went into drive the INSTANT she saw her.
The last implies she has a stronger connection with someone she JUST MET than with Mirei.

>>1924930
The fact that the best couple in the series is two throwaway characters featured in a gag episode is pretty telling.

>>1924945
There are three best couples.

>>1924944
That's the sad thing. She's meant to be with Akira it seems. She just seems to love her a lot more, and that's what pisses people off. They really need to fix the Mamori/Mirei thing up soon, or else it's gonna be too late

>>1924944
God this is all people are going to talk about till next week: how Mamori somehow became even more hated than usual. Hopefully Momoka showing up and Akira's reveal will change things

>>1924945
But Kasumi and Charlotte are in nearly every episode.

>>1924944
>The last implies she has a stronger connection with someone she JUST MET than with Mirei.
Rain went into Drive just by kissing Mirei, and nobody's crying that it means her connection with J is shit. On the contrary, Rain herself stated that her (and J's) ability to Drive without their usual partner is a proof of their strong bond.

>>1924952
You can't compare that to Lady Lady.

>>1924952
Doesn't excuse Mamori's horrible attitude toward Mirei

It really honesty does feel at times Mamori has a stronger connection to Akira than to Mirei

I don't think anyone is going to disagree, the problem lies in that she's in love with one of the worst girls.

Though I trust the whole "Most Powerful Valkyrie Effect" to date will pan out so that they fall madly in love the Mamori and they fuck forever.

Also I hope Momoka will show up and give Mamori a run for her money.

Oh and add to the fact that she drove easily with Akira just by looking at her

>>1924997
That's the same thing you said from your post above.
You didn't add anything to your argument.

Face it, you have no proof whatsoever that Mamori *cares for Heel-Hold more than Merie.
You're misunderstanding Mamori.

>>1924999
So why did she cum to the sight of a naked heel-hold when Mirei was naked as well?

Mirei has to be fucking really dominant to get Mamori to drive with her. All Akira did was look at her

Is anyone going to get the magazine with Lady Lady's short story?

Get ready to be disappointed, though. People here seem to had missed that the only reason they like Lady Lady is because they don't have any character beyond "We're strong and so in love."

The writing staff behind VD has proved themselves to be really shitty at giving depth to its characters, I don't know why you people believe that it will be different with Lady Lady.

>>1925094
Nothing. I love them, I just have my expectations in check.

>>1925094
It means that the writers didn't have a chance to ruin them yet, so wanting more information about them could turn out badly.

Remember how stoked people were for Mamori when the only thing we knew about her was that trailer where Mirei was caressing her and she turned into a sword and Mirei looked disappointed?

>>1925100
I actually didn't like Mamori from the pre-release stuff. Episode 1-3 made me like her though.

But then it went back to dislike from 4 on.

>>1925105
Poor girl, she can't win, huh? I don't really dislike her, but I don't like her either.

>>1925105
I liked her pre-release and up to episode 3. Episode 4 ruined a lot of things.

>>1925108
>>1925110
My last hope is that Mirei being stuck in a coma + her mutant form being revealed will finally awaken the protective feelings in Mamori that will lead to them becoming a real couple.

>>1925119
Well, Momoka will surely shake things up next episode. The status quo won't survive for much longer.

>>1925110
It just ruined the little "prince" trope that Mamori was questioning about Merie.

>>1925125
Who the hell is Merie? Her name is Mirei.

>>1925096
When the premise of the series is that girls turn in to weapons when they orgasm, your expectations shouldn't be high. Just enjoy the ride, this is not exactly War and Peace.

It feels like there was a change of writers around episode 4.

has there been any gameplay footage of bhikkuni yet?

There were different writers.

Kuroda was the writers for episodes 1 to 4 and Go Zappa was in charge of episodes 5 to 7. Episode 8 marks the return of Kuroda
