How pretentious.

Just watched the episode.
The people saying it had het...please, die. You're fucking stupid.
She didn't even care about the "ikemen Papika", just stated a fact. She just blushed to the indirect kiss, what I'm sure she would do with anyone.

Meh, should be enough to have Cocona enter a love hotel with succubus papika and play along for a while until she remembered her mission. Just move over. It was a great episode.

>>2191889
IIt's just the usual band of the ultra-volatile types, most gave up trying to show them reason a long time ago.

>>2191896
>a great episode.
>want to fuck male Papika
>not interested in succubus Papika
not really

>>2191896
That scene was good because she questioned if she meant as a friend. Papika even asks why she would ask that. Seriously, there's way too much build to a yuri end.

I just hope Papika doesn't end up being Cocona mother, or something stupid like that.

>>2191899
Stop.

>>2191901
That will not happen. It would waste all the yuri build up which has been a major part of the show from the first episode.

>yuri fans are okay with genderbending one of the girls in the pairing

I don't see how this was a good episode.

>>2191905
I'm not ok with it, but there was enough other good stuff to counterbalance it that I'm ok with the episode overall.

>>2191905
I wouldn't be okay in another context. Here it's fine.

>>2191901
The flashback pretty much crushed those theories I think. At most Salt will be Cocona's father and try to rescue his wife while ignoring their child. Kinda like a lesbian Gendou.

>>2191905
It was not

>>2191909
Why is Salt a lesbian?

This was pretty cute.

Casual reminder that it was Papika acting like a ikemen stereotype, and is in no way confirmed to be a straight up genderbend (if that was the case, Cocona would've brought it up back when Papita (jerk classmate Papika) showed up instead of just being all "Pure Illusion, huh? Great...")

>>2191901
I'm probably guessing it's not going to be her mother. Sister, on the other hand, could be a possibility

You can also see delinquent papika's breast shape when she's shopping with Cocona. All of them are female. Guess some people can't into handsome girls.

>>2191933
Funny enough, CR subs for Brazil used a feminine adjective for delinquent Papika at first, but then a masculine adjetive next.

Well...not like they even knew what they were doing. Terrible thing having gender in adjectives.

But it's much more interesting if all the Papikas came from Cocona's mind. It's not important that some of them were dressed as boys; that's what romance looks like to a middle school girl who's probably never thought about sexuality much. The relevant part is that her unconsciousness associates Papika with romance and sex.

>>2191981
>that's what romance looks like to a middle school girl who's probably never thought about sexuality much.
I agree. All of the scenarios she went through with them were various typical romance cliches.
Cocona was literally lost in thought contemplating the nature of her relationship with Papika.

>>2191868
I actually like them a lot.

Don't get me wrong. I'm firmly entrenched in the CocoPapi camp at this point but I like Yayaka. I also enjoy that they're doing a bit of a twist on the "best friend is actually evil" cliche in that her and Cocona are still friends in school and Yayaka really does seem to care for Cocona.

>>2191896
Aside the fact that we more or less got a confirmation of non-platonic love in this episode. Given I'm not a /u/ purist so I thought the indirect kiss scene was cute either way especially if, like me, you want to believe that Cocona was blushing about it exactly -because- it was Papika.

>>2191971
I actually a while back was thinking that Yayaka was going to sacrifice herself for Coco/Papi but the more we go one the more I hope she doesn't. I actually really want her to be happy in the end too.

>>2192000
I still think she would blush with anyone, because that's how Cocona is. She's an anti-social girl not used with this kind of thing.

But that doesn't matter. The only reason this scene exist is because it's a cliche usually played with the stereotype Papika was being that time.

Hell, the way /u/ acted, I thought she would fall for the guy the first time she saw him. She literally didn't care. She just wanted to find Papika.

>>2192046
I really don't understand the amount of vitriol that small scene is getting, espeically in light of the fact that the rest of this episode was one big affirmation for romance between Cocona/Papika

Is it wrong for me to see more Yayaka x Cocona shipping? Feels like Yayaka really need some of Cocona's cocos.

>>2192051

>>2192047

It will likely be fully canon by the end.

>>2192049
Nah. I've seen it all before. Just think its retarded.

>>2192047
It's trolling, and pretty obvious at that. I'm disappointed that people apparently bit so much it got the other thread deleted and that people are trying to contemplate the nature of /u/'s posters using trolling as a basis.

>>2192051
Maybe Cocona and Papika were actually parts of the same person, and by the end they become one again, and then go have their happily ever after with Yayaka.

>>2192165
After this episode Yayaka has as much of a chance as Souma.

I don't understand why /u/ is so butthurt because of this episode. You guys won, Cocona loves Papika in a romantic way. Not that friendship copout.

>>2192175
No one's really butthurt, please don't drag out pretty obvious stupidity,

>>2192173
I wouldnt say that level of hopelessness. Since that last scene in ep7, Yayaka is still of a largely unknown quantity when it comes to her relation with the rest of the main cast:

As stated in an earlier episode CCN and YYK are childhood friends that CCN treats as family.

She, like CCN doesnt seem to bother mixing work with pleasure, and they still hang out together like normal when not working.

We now know YYK is working with KKK of her own volition who now seem to distrust her now and apparently never let her in on any of their more close-held info on PI

She's still desperate to somehow remain in the loop.

With just this knowledge i'm going to assume her endgame differs from the KKK's plan at least a little.

Okay, what does nail clippers mean?

>>2192241
If you regularly engage in fingering, you'd better keep your nails short to avoid scraping.

>>2192244
How the fuck did you get that out of the nail clippers in the show? Do girls look for other girls with short nails to determine that they are lesbians? That's ridiculous.

>>2192237
Is this really a trope? I've never heard of that.
On the other hand, it's the best explanation I've heard about it. And they wouldn't just put a random item in there without meaning.
Could it be related to Sempais nail polish plot?

>>2192246
>Do girls look for other girls with short nails to determine that they are lesbians? That's ridiculous.
Yes, they do. A girl with short nails got far more chances to be a lesbian than one with long nails.

You obviously can't rely on a single sign, but it's not a bad idea to check the nail length.

They hold hands in public while Yayaka watches.
Or we will have a threesome and Yayaka and papika will hold Cocona hand at the same time.

this is definitely going to have metaphorical sex, right?

>>2192547
What makes you think it hasn't already?

>>2192547
did Succubus Papika visit Cocona only that one time? Or did she have multiple encounters like with all the other Papikas?

OK, just finished ep 6, tell me where the general consensus differs from how I saw it.
The basic premise was that Iro tried to live two separate "lives" one when she was with auntie and one at home because they were so different. "Iro is Iro" is meant to show that separating the doing that is pointless, no matter which life she is living she's the same person. Papika and Cocona going to Auntie and fulfilling Iro's promise caused some change in the real world, whether in Iro's mindset or some reality alteration stuff, and that change allowed Iro to forgive herself and use the present she was given, the nail polish. That sounds right?

>>2192570
Pretty much. Close enough that any differences are up to interpretation.

>>2192570
There are always multiple ways of interpreting each episode. I'm not an expert on the whole IroIro thing so I'll leave it to other anons.

>>2192574
OK, thanks.
I just watched the next and it's a bit tougher. Basically it can be that Cocona is trying to put a specific label on their relationship or at least her trying to find out which part of her relationship she truly values (hence Papika being a bunch of anime cliches). The rejection of these is then seen as Cocona deciding that she likes all aspects of her relationship with Cocona together or that their relationship can't be defined by a label.
Or a much more simplistic view is that they were just multiple types of different but desirable options, but because they weren't Papika, she didn't want them.
Well anyway, I'm fucking hooked now.

>>2192586
>Or a much more simplistic view is that they were just multiple types of different but desirable options, but because they weren't Papika, she didn't want them.

Simplified, this is what the general consensus seems to be. Cocona was offered a dozen different types of relationships that could all be fulfilling in different ways, from fragile imouto that looks up to you to pretty boy to casual sex friend, and decided that she didn't want any of those, what she wanted was Papika.

Way more wiggle room in the details but that's the gist of it. It's hard to say if the different Papika personalities were aspects of Papika, aspects of Papika from Cocona's point of view, or just archetypes that looked like her. It does seem like the PI came from Cocona though, with it being an empty and melancholic version of the town.

Overall I would say the core of the episode was asking Cocona what she wanted, literally and figuratively, and it forced her to think about her relationship with Papika and how she views it. Which is interesting if you consider that the entire PI may have come from her.

>>2192586
Other takes I've seen are the blogger's above where the PI/Cocona's subconscious is trying to extract her from the closet, and a non-yuri (but not necessarily mutually exclusive) take where the PI is forcing Cocona to come to terms with the idea that people can change without it necessarily being a bad thing.

Basically, although none of the Papikas were "her" Papika she still enjoyed her time with them since they were still essentially Papika, so she should remain open to the idea that the same is true for Iroha.

Agree with most of that.

> She’s almost out of the closet, and they got another fragment as proof of her progress.

Actually Yayaka and the twins got the fragment. You can see her holding it as they pass Cocona sitting on the riverbank. The fragment Papika is later shown holding is the one that Cocona retrieved in episode 1 which Papika keeps (in her ankle bracelet?) and uses to transform.

The sinkhole that appears shortly thereafter might be due to the fact that the Amorphous was just defeated and it's "defense trap" is dissolving.

> The episode ended with them returning to the real world in a field of flowers and they spend some time there, happy to be back with each other.

I'm not convinced they're in the real world. I think they might be in another area of PI.

>>2192929
When a fragment is remove the world seem to collapse. I am surprised Yayaka did not try to rescue Cocona.

The flower field is preceeded by a cut of the Cultists base in the real world, which normally never happens while they are in PI due to time dilation.

The time of day between the Cultist base and the lakeside is the same.

Salt was in the same area, and there's been no indication that he can travel to PI.

So to me it seems most likely that this was an area of the real world which was changed by Pure Illusion during the event in Papika's flashback.

That hole was similar to this one. Also foreshadowing from earlier in the ep implies that it was a hole to Deep PI.

>>2193020
She's not interested in a cheap, shallow representation of romance. The best interpretation I've seen is that she wants the real Papika, complete with all her flaws, not some idealized version that shoujo manga tells her she should be attracted to.

Sort of like rejecting the fantasy of a Prince Charming that Disney feeds little girls

Why is this board full of kids that don't know a shit about yuri and lesbian tropes in media or even real life lesbians? At least try to not to blatantly display your ignorace on the subject.
Sorry for being full of salt, but honestly, educate yoursefl before you speak. I don't want to sound offensive, but lately I've seen a lot of extremely stupid and poor remarks about yuri in general all around the internet. Probably I'm getting too old for the average age of the people who watch and write about anime, and too intransigent towards ignorance in general. Now I'm glad that you know at least one more useful information about this matter.

Another interpretation.

The pretty boy represented her young innocent view of love. Naturally being a middle schooler it would normally go to the idea of a cute nice boy rather than a girl. Because that's how young kids see romance, between cute girls and cute boys. Thus the blush over something a simple as an indirect kiss showed how innocent it was.

However the sexual papika was a female, this was a more base and truer desire, one that wasn't affected by childish views of romance, and was only her primal desires, but one closer to her real feelings of love, which were toward a female papika.

Then naturally she rejects all those desires and chooses the real papika of which she loves.

>Salt was in the same area, and there's been no indication that he can travel to PI.

Somehow it seems like a younger, less sharp version of Salt. Since Salt should have been in the Flip Flap control room when the girls left for PI, and time flows more quickly in PI than in the real world, it might be a memory of Salt left in PI, just like the memory of Obaachan from ep 6.

Or not. The scene feels intentionally ambiguous as to whether it's in the real world or not.

There seems to be two Yuri shows this season but will we get a kiss or confessiln in either show? I wonder...

>>2193296
I figured it was salt off duty doing something, the hat and everything was to hide its identity.
>>2193298
>2
I count at least 2 (almost) confirmed yuri shows with 1 debatable and 1 lesbian crush.

>>2193301
What's the other two?

>>2193308
Well the yuri ones would be this one and the ping pong lesbians. I haven't watched izetta but I hear that has some nice potential although i've been hearing lots of bait and switch vibes from it. then sbr has retoree still. And I suppose there's the long running subtext shows as well but I didn't include them.
Though thinking on it there's also wixoss (I think its yuri? never watched it) and other sols.
Then you have all the mahou shoujos which have plenty of potential and vivid might be yuri(?) at least if it follows the nanoha formula it would be.

>>2193312
After this episode I am pretty certain we will at least get a confession or kiss in Izetta.

>>2193312
Izetta is pretty damn gay, Wixoss is not. As for the mahou shoujos, if I recall Matoi is het, but the short mahou shoujo series is pretty yuri. Vivid Strike is too busy pulverizing lolis to ship them.

>>2193301
>only 4

Flip Flappers, Izetta, and Ping Pong Girls are totally gay.

ViVid Strike and Regalia are pretty damn gay.

Keijo is inherently gay but I am behind a few episodes on it so not sure, yuri did not seem like a focus. It does have stuff like massages and at one point someone accidently groped someone to orgasm.

Ikusei has an adult lesbian couple for two of the characters and I have heard people say it gets gayer later. The show certainly seems to ship two or three pairs of girls.

And then I am not watching it but Hibikek is whatever it is.

Not watching WIXOSS and dropped Matoi, so don't know if those get gay. Think there was one other minor mahou shoujo I am not watching but do not remember it.

>>2193312
No bait and switch in Izetta at all. You probably saw one of the people that was triggered by the political marriage that was briefly discussed in ep1.

Izetta is extremely gay at the moment. It's Yoshino so anything could happen by the end but for now, there's no argument. Especially since every eligible male has been shot and killed.

I've no idea what's hapenning in Vivid. Don't really care either.

Keikaku is pretty good. Treats its pretty boy the same way Izetta does. Will probably be a friendship end for MC and the only other survivor but might surprise since the spoilers I've seen aren't specific about their relationship.

Matoi and Stella are worthless. Someone didn't get the memo that Modern Magical Girls are always gay.

>>2193314
>>2193315
>>2193318
>izetta is basically confirmed gay
well thanks for that heads up, was debating if i should.

As for keijo however i was reading the manga awhile back, there's some cute subtext and the lesbian gag characters, but it doesn't look like its heading toward a yuri end. MC seems more friendly with girls but interested in males, and the author is willing to entertain male love interests (he dropped them, but being willing means we're probably going to see a het end)

>>2193312
>izetta...bait and switch vibes

Seriously? I was thinking about picking this up, but I'll probably now just wait for it to end. Unless it is just what >>2193318 said about the political marriage. Though I haven't seen the show, I know it wouldn't go down that route.

I haven't read the manga for Keijo but I heard that the male love interest was intentionally made to be someone you hated, or something.

It doesn't seem like the kind of thing you should expect yuri from though, you can tell from one episode what the creator wants to do with it, and even if it has yuri here and there it is an ass man's thing first and foremost.

It was rather more of a "I'm not okay with men because I want to draw a bunch of tits and asses hitting each other" than a "I want yuri"
I don't there will be a het end or a yuri end, its more something you watch because you like seeing tits and ass all over the place. So in that i wouldn't consider it yuri regardless because chances of any romance happening is next to none.

The author actually fucking hates male characters but had to include them to satisfy his editor. He dropped them later though. That's why they aren't in the anime.

Read up more here http://natalie.mu/comic/pp/keijo
>in one interview, mangaka admit that his editor made him add male characters that could be Nozomi romantic interest. Mangaka said that Nozomi don't need that and that she only wants money and refuse to let romance in but editor insisted. So he add those male characters and then didn't do anything with them and basically forgot about them.

Manga features heavy subtext between the MC and her rival as well as couple of explicit lesbians on the side.

>>2193327
Well they teased the temperature forehead measuring in the last episode and they delivered that in this one. Pretty based.

Sure it's not a romance anime but there's subxtext and couple teasing like in other ecchi stuff like Queen's Blade. Also actual furious lesbo side-characters.

>>2193331
The anime will certainly be gayer than the manga, at least. In the manga, some random guys tried to pick Miyata up, in the anime they had Nozomi do that.

Even if Izetta had a full yuri good end, and FliFla ended up open or stayed in subtext I would still say FliFla is my favorite show this year. It's just very well done.

>>2193341
I think FliFla has gone beyond subtext now. There's no going back.

>>2193342
I'm just saying FliFla blows every show this year out of the water. It's that good. Fuck even if the last episode we see Cocona married to a man with kids of her own I would still love this show. It transcends yuri.

>>2193345
What if Papika was a sleeper agent destined to kill Cocona and she does so in the last episode with no hesitation and ultimately all their interaction meant nothing to her? I wouldn't really say there's nothing that can ruin Flip Flappers.

Woah now, let's not get carried away now.

If the producers decided to go IPS route this would be the show of the century.

>>2193382
The ending in episode 7 proves this, however I think Cocona not remembering her parents have something to do with Salt altering Cocona's PI.

>>2193341
>>2193345
I agree, mostly. I've got the same line of thought as >>2193367

Assuming episodes continue at the same level of quality, the ending would have to be really garbage for me to think of this as anything lower than a 9. If the studio exploded tomorrow and the show ended this would already be a top ten for me.

But I also really don't want a bad ending. I don't mind tragic endings, just make them good. Or even just okay. Just don't shit all over everything the show has been building up to and I will be happy.

>>2193388
At this point I just feel like a bad end would be out of place. We've only really had the faintest hints of some potentially really dark shit that also has equally viable less dark interpretations. I feel like if the show wanted to go full urobutcher on us we would have seen something of it by now.

>>2193390
>if the show wanted to go full urobutcher on us we would have seen something of it by now.

Well, there was that "another bust" girl from episode 1, who likely died. That's a hint.

Even if the show doesn't go full Urobutcher it could easily go full "Princess Tutu": the magic dies; the world is put back in joint; characters return to what they "naturally" should be; certain relationships become possible; but certain relationships are lost.

We've seen a hint of that with Iroha: her trauma was healed, she became happier and more social -- but she lost her art. If whatever major trauma underlies the entire story eventually gets healed, will Papika and Cocona still be able to be together? Or do they properly belong in different worlds?

>>2193412
First off, I will concede on Princess Tutu. What happened between Ahiru/Fakir at the end made me mad.

Generally I agree with you. I suppose I'm drawing hope from the fact that we're seeing actual development of Cocona/Papika's relationship well and beyond the "more than friends less than lovers" purgatory that similar shows tend to mire themselves in.

I suppose I just feel that if we were going to go a route that seperates them forever we wouldn't have just had an episode of Cocona coming to terms with her feelings for Papika. To me, having all that build up just to shatter it at the end isn't tragic in the sense of a well written tragedy, its just stupid and unnecessarily cruel. And since I feel like that type of end would be unreasonable I don't think we'd go there.

Will say, I don't know what to make of the girl in episode one but we also just figured out that Papika was running away from the KKK in the opening sequence and thus the girl Cocona replaced could have died doing whatever it is Flip Flap is trying to do. The only thing suspect there is Papika's dismissive attitude toward the whole thing which I'm either going to guess is her not understanding the concept of death or something else we just don't know about her.

>>2193416
She was pretty grim (for papika) in the first second we saw her. It's subtle, but I think you can say she definitely wasn't happy about it.

>>2193416
Papika's mind might not be wired like the rest of us. She might be indifferent other people except for the one she considers her pair.

>>2193345
But anon, every episode so far (excluding the one with senpai's pas) has been building Papika and Cocona relationship. If at the end of this all they end it with "Cocona marries a random man", they're throwing all they did away. And that's a big storytelling flaw. It could make all the journey meaningless.

I'm enjoying a lot too, but that's why I don't want they screwing up at the very end, so it could end as one of the best shows ever made. Although, that's unlikely to happen.

Jacob Chapman is a fucking idiot. He wrote a review on Rebellion calling Homura out of character and that's really all you need to know to understand that he has no viewing comprehension. He is fully ready to accept yuri on ice as some beacon of LGBT activism even though it's still firmly yaoibait territory. An ambiguous Schrodinger's kiss where nobody reacted like it was a kiss or even mentioned it does not make it gay. YOI is going to be BTFO at the end of the season. Yes, I mad.

>>2194017
Just means he isn't alone in his idiocy.

>>2194015
>Yes, I mad.
Same.

>>2194017
Yeah, it's disturbingly common.

I think 90% of the blame on that can be blamed on the series ending scenes first with Madoka's family where she looks melancholic but still okay, and then with the Wraiths where she still seems to have a handle on things. Based on the rest of the anime, it should be really obvious that Homura would take Madoka ascending to godhood and leaving her really, incredibly badly. But because those two scenes were put in at the end, a large number of viewers seemed to either forget or ignore that in lieu of being able to enjoy a bittersweet and conclusive ending. Then Rebellion came along and ruined that by continuing a story many felt was basically complete already, and I imagine a lot of the complaints about Homu being out of character comes from that perspective.

Also, while I love Rebellion and devil Homu, I do actually agree that the anime without Rebellion is more thematically complete, in that it brings a natural conclusion to the main themes the series deals with regarding hope, agency, etc. If they ever follow up on Rebellion (I've given up hope) and complete Homura's story, I think that would work just as well as the anime on its own, but as long as we ONLY have Rebellion, however much I love the plot and characterization and all on its own, it really just kind of breaks away from those themes at the very end and leaves them all hanging unresolved.

>>2194015
> He wrote a review on Rebellion calling Homura out of character

Sometimes I wonder if people even pay attention to what they're watching or they're just projecting what they want to see.

And that was my problem. I wouldn't have a problem with anyone calling FliFla subtext and the beggining. It's usually what we get anyone (although subtext and bait is different, and I wish they would recognize it). But saying Yaoi on Ice was different was really stupid. That anime uses homossexuality as fanservice with way less substance than FliFla...since the first episode until now.

No problem at that, but saying YoI is a anime about gay couples while FliFla is bait is really a disservice to the work.

But I'm happy the last episode was so blatant obvious that he had to change his vision about it.

He's a liberal, he sees Yuri as something that pander to lonely otakus regardless of how well done it is. He's half right on certain yuri shows though, I mean shows like Valkrie Drive or whatever does pander to men. Fuck I say that about Izetta as well.

Not much wrong with that, I like all those shows and damn me if I don’t watch every single new vivid butt witches they put out. That the similarity between Keijo and YOI is lost on so many people is hilarious though.

Who cares whom a show was made for? Fanservice and good stories can coexist. There’s just too many shows that are too incompetent to pull off either, quite frankly. It’s not like the average harem light novel has very good fanservice. Yes, it’s there, maybe even plentiful. No, you can’t just slap tits on the screen, it needs to be done with some level of competence to arouse anyone but a 12 year old who somehow doesn’t have access to real porn.

>>2194098
That dumbass seem to care, I am surprised someone even care about his shitty opinion. Fuck I am going through his post history, he fucking brought politics into anime...

>>2194084
I think you're being harsh. His episode reviews for FF are actually pretty decent.

>>2194098

I'm sensing a bit of anger towards YOI anon.
it's a good show, but the constant circle jerk over how progressive it is for being a sports show with BL fanservice is annoying
Almost all of Flip Flappers episodes have been about exploring and developing the main relationship and the last episode made it clear that there is at least some consideration on whether she loves Papika as a friend or something else and that's far gayer than most stuff I've seen this year.

Yeah, I can see how we could be in the realm of subtext even all the way up to the most recent episode (though cutting it close) but after 7 there's just no way that it's still subtext.

>>2194103
Obviously, because there’s nothing to rant or fanboy about. I’m saying he’s not an idiot and can write decent things, but often he doesn’t want to and instead gets lost in narcissist self praise and generally being a dick first and asking his brain second.

>>2194104
No, it’s pretty much my favorite show after Flip Flappers. It’s extremely well done and the idea that fanservice (which it has a ton of) undercuts its plot or message is as ridiculous here as it is in shows with a female cast.

>>2194104
I think the annoying part is that FliFla has being more substantial yuri than YoI has been yaoi, but fans trying to paint it otherwise.
Since episode 1.

Come on, that "kiss" in YoI is proof of that. If they wanted to make it gay, they wouldn't hide it so people could intepret as just a hug. They did, so they are making it very clear what their aim is.

Also, Yuri pretty much said: "I love Victor, but it's not a romantic love. It's abstract." That's a big contrast on the "Do I love Papika as a friend, or...?"

Sure, YOI yaoi subtext is intentional, not doubt of that. But it won't probably go past subtext. It's pretty much fanservice. These episodes made it clear. FliFla has way more substance on the girls relationship than that. So it's a disservice to say YOI is the one definitive gay anime of the season or something.

Hell, at this point even Izetta has a better chance of a yuri end than YOI has a chance of a yaoi end.

There's not problem with that. I like a lot of yuri that's pretty much just yuri subtext and fanservice, too. But they should recognize it by what it is. And more important, don't call other things bait because of that.

It's obvious that the producers see it this wall as well, don't sexualize Papika. Cocona will help guide her into the wonderful world when the time is right.

>>2194142
They are 100% aware of it. Check the director's favorite pics in twitter. Based as fuck.

We have yet to see if it's hard yuri, as in they explicitly acknowledge their romantic relationship.
But it's not subtext anymore either. There is some undeniable coming of age going on, in regards to Coco's sexuality.
It's gay, nee-san.

>>2194169
We don't have full acknowledgement of mutual feelings but we just had an episode with one of the two main character coming to terms with the fact that she loves the other. And they were pretty explicit about it being romantic love and not friendship love.

At the screening event. Bunch of tweets about it afterwards.

Everyone seems to have gotten a really good impression of Oshiyama, someone says he was cuter than the VAs.
Bangs down Yayaka is popular with the staff.
Use of flowers symbolically is intentional.
Henshin was inspired by Cicada molting.
Episode 8 preview from TV is misleading.
The staff/director read what people are saying on the internet.
Oshiyama made the Gokigenyou voice with a didgeridoo.

Below is "spoiler" stuff based on previews of episodes 8 and 9 shown at the screening so you may or may not want to read that.
Episode 8
Chaos in a good way.
Robot Battle in School Swimsuits.
Impression that Papika, Cocona, Yayaka could possibly join forces?

Episode 9
Like a circus.
New character (blue hair twintails) from the OP introduced.
Yayaka potentially useless to KKK now.
Yayaka vs Papika. Possibly Yayaka vs Cocona also.

>>2194132

Yeah, right

>>2194345
That's just standard anime.
At least they didn't delayed any episode yet (like Brave Witches and Long Raiders) neither their animation quality fell (like Yuri on Ice).

>>2194345
Dumb as in hilariously dumb. That's just his impression from a 3 min preview.

>>2194349

>>2194337
I kind of wish I hadn't read that.

>>2194348
Director has high standard, he wanted everything to look perfect and that takes time. Director checked every single frame himself. One guy in audience was wondering if it's okay for him to attend the event because of the tight schedule.

>>2194351
Actually, since they have two episodes done already, I think they're better than most studios usually are. It's probably what >>2194355
said.

>>2194337
>PapiCoco breaking up their friendship
JUST

>>2194369
It just says they have a disagreement/argument. I'm surprised it'll take til episode 9 for them to have their first spat really.

>>2194384
Considering that the anime has reference to Precure too, it's kind of a shame they didn't make the fight in the episode 8.

>>2194384
Their separation in Ep7 was treated as an argument of sorts. Or at least, that's how Cocona felt about it.

True, i'm guessing the ep9 pv probably showed CocoPapi arguing or one of them having a "i'm so done with this" moment, only time will tell and to be honest makes me even more thirsty for the Thursdays to come.

>>2194337
>Ep9: PapiCoco breaking up their friendship

Fuck. I'm hoping its a lovers spat and they're okay by the end.

>>2194441
It's a cliche for an eventual make up/out. I think most fans expected some sort of emotional drama between them.

>>2194452
I know it's a cliche. I'm just overly invested in CocoPapi at this point. It's all just going so well I worry about any risk to their ending.

>>2194465
I just hope they make up in the same episode. I couldn't endure a week.

>>2194471
That's the thing too. Even if I know its a typical romance cliche and will probably get better the week wait would be fucking murder.

>>2194471
True. A lot of /u/s wouldn't survive the crippling depression.

>>2194477
Direct hit on my fetish. That's too cute.

>>2194520
What fetish would that be?

I wonder if the comment about the flowers being symbolic applies to all the eps... because I am about to go searching for all the flowers in the series. Ep 7 especially, has them on a field of flowers. And not just any flower, they land on a field of white clovers. And what's more, PPK makes a flower crown out of those very white clovers for CCN.

It could go both ways... one being that there isn't that much meaning behind the flowers being white clovers. It's a flower that is commonly used to make flower crowns and was selected for that reason. But given that we had several shots to highlight that they are indeed white clovers, when they could have just not shown us what flower it was, I am inclined to believe that this was not the case...

The other would be that it was chosen because the hanakotoba for white clovers are "Happiness", "Promise", "Please think of me/Don't forget me" and "Be mine". There is also one last negative word being, "Revenge". I've googled and the popular belief is that in making a flower crown for the other to wear, you're saying "Please be mine" but should that not happen, well.. "revenge" (it applies to promise as well). Now obviously, I hope that they just wanted the romantic side of this and not the "revenge" part as well...

Anyone notice that Salt had two seiyuu for episode 7? Sakurai being the other one. I believe he was the one who screamed "Mimi" in Papika's flashback.

I think I have a problem Nee-sans. The better the goes. The closer Cocona and Papika get. The more wonderful their relationship becomes.

It all increases my fear that something is going to go horribly terribly wrong and they're going to separate forever. It's starting to get to the point where I feel that would legit hurt me.

Like with the episode 9 spoilers from the event. I know it's a cliche and will probably just lead to them getting closer ultimately but I guess anything like that worries me because it's so perfect otherwise.

>>2195215

It was like a 3-minute preview. I doubt there were any *actual* spoilers in it.

>>2195239
Oh I know. I'm mostly being hyperbolic. Its just the interesting double edged sword of feelings that the more everything just goes so -right- with PapiCoco the more I get invested with them and the more vulnerable to hurt I would feel if something were to go wrong. I'm more talking about hypothetical ends where they have to separate either due to death or PI shenanigans or something.
