I know I'm like 20 years late, but man what a rollercoaster of a show. I swear episodes 6-10 made me physically ill. What did the rest of /a/ think?


Also, **Kotonoha deserved better and I could've saved her before she got deflowered by Taisuke**

Incredibly dull and boring show only made interesting and memorable by its ending.

What I think is that they really don't make wild rollercoaster shows anymore and that makes me sad.
Frieren is alleged aoty and yet, where are the shows that captivate people to go crazy over next episodes?

School Days was unique because they took the original VN and adapted the one hidden gag ending among many more conventional ones, which is why the protagonist is so cartoonishly evil - he made literally every wrong choice in a branching storyline. That was definitely the right call, because it made the show far more memorable than it would've been otherwise.
The real thing is far "nicer", you can check it out if you want.

VNs would be a lot more popular if they used School Days' format. I was blown away when I realized it's entirely made of anime segments but you get branching plot. Doesn't this make anime itself obsolete?

I genuinely dislike the School/Shiny Days VN because of this. It's just watching a really REALLY low budget anime and it takes way longer to get through than a normal VN because I could read faster than the anime plays. Just makes it feel like a slog to me.

It's called a "genre deconstruction" its erm SUPPOSED to play all the stale tropes, accept them at face value, and go to their logical conclusion

>male harem protagonist will evemtually accept whatever offer of pussy thrown at him
>horndog comic relief classmate eventually rapes and traumatizes a girl
>the girls are selfish for pursuing the same guy, eventually hurting themselves and each other. They're also shallow for finding a bland protagonist appealing

It reminds me of when Adam Carolla used to cohost Loveline on the radio and every other call would be teens who made incredibly stupid sex decisions out of impulse or delusions about relationships. It's not entirely unrealistic

My point was that i believe the series either willingly or not makes a point about sexual education and the lack of it
If you consider the main two characters, makoto and sekai they have several family issues that are shown mostly in the back but if taken into consideration the add fuel into their behaviour
Both come from broken homes without a strong father figure and are mostly raised by single mothers who due to pure economic needs are not present at all in their lives
Its easy to consider how this effects on their behaviour and actions
Maybe im reading too much into it but basically what i was getting at is that the issues in school days or teenage pregnancy and romance drama are very real but many people think this occurring in the series is somehow unrealistic

I like both but I feel the same way
And I'd pick Setsuna over both

I think that show, alongside K-ON, made me obsessed with anime in general.

In that time, and even today, I could realize it's trash. Even still, I can enjoy it oh so much. The cute girls, the unnecessary violence and raw emotions with sweet and soft japanese music in the back. Works perfectly in my opinion, and makes for something you can enjoy no matter what.

Makoto did nothing wrong, he was just a horny teenager
Sekai is actually the worst and most realistic schizoid, first she betrayed her best friend, then purposefully didn't use contraception to get pregnant and tie makoto down into what? a fucking marriage in highschool? And when makoto didn't go along with her schizo fantasies she went crashes out and kills him. What a fucking derange whore, women not even once

I guess it's possible Kotonoha didn't see it considering how small babies are at a few months

That, and how the hell would she know anyway? She's not a doctor.

I can guarantee that you only watched the ending on youtube or something and nothing else.

Kotonoha is the canon winner if the bowl and biggest one by far. She'll get pregnant with Makoto's baby and then castrate him for good.

I dont think it's that hard to spot a fetus if it's developed enough
