Cute romcom about a girl from an all-girls school and a boy from an all-boys school starts today.
Synopsis:
>This story unfolds in a particular town where two infamous schools are in constant dispute: Chidori High, a boys' school primarily attended by students with challenging academic records, and its neighbor, Kikyo Girls' High, known for its students hailing from wealthy and prestigious families.
>One day, Rintaro Tsumugi, a second-year student at Chidori with a fierce appearance but a gentle heart, is assisting at his family's patisserie when he meets a customer named Kaoruko Waguri. Rintaro cherishes his interactions with Kaoruko, as she doesn't judge him based on his looks. However, this serene connection is abruptly shaken when Rintaro discovers that Kaoruko is actually a student at Kikyo. This revelation sets the stage for their challenging journey, as they strive to overcome the societal barriers imposed by their schools and environment, seeking to carve out their own path.
>17 volumes out already
So basically nothing happens or it's dramashit
Is the release schedule not fucked for this like Blue Box's was? I saw some Japanese complaining about having to get Netflix to watch it a week early.
>Kikyo Girls' High
I will now watch your anime
>>280260271 (OP)>a girl from an all-girls school and a boy from an all-boys schoolI'll admit I misread that as the other way around at first.
>>280260271 (OP)If this was published in a shoujo magazine you homosexuals would be pretending its bad
What time does this release?
>>280260987trap secretly dating reverse trap would be kino
>>280260720damn, seems like the art quickly went to shit
>>280260271 (OP)>>280260571It's really a mostly feelgood manga. The premise (opposing schools) is also underutilized and the taboo for the girl is nearly nonexistent. There's no real stakes or drama.
But I still enjoyed it a lot, I just wish the things I mentioned were handled differently.
>>280261012I know there's a series like that somewhere...
Is this the manga where every single character apologizes for the most trivial shit and sucks the MC's dick every possible minute?
>>280260271 (OP)I just realized that all 3 Cloverworks shows air and start today.
>>280261088Short answer yes
>>280261108What's the left one?
>>280261128Bunnygirl Senpai new season
>>280260271 (OP)>im sorry the animeall jokes aside it's a good manga that does its job well for the genre it's in. 8/10
>>280261007Please forgive me
>>280261007It's bad no matter what magazine it's in.
>>280261487EXTREMELY so, also prone to huge emotional outbursts where characters just pour their hearts to each other every other chapter.
>>280261026It's the first 10 chapters
>>280260720Good compilation.
I picked it up back then because of the pretty art, and came to the same conclusion. It's just I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm such a good person I'm sorry.
The bullies who hit you and then run away were the cherry on top.
Somehow this author is completely detached from reality. I don't understand how this manga resonated with so many people, the art was the only thing going for it.
MC and feMC design seems too foidslop
>>280261032>feelgood mangaThe characters become melodramatic retards every other chapter.
And no, them talking it out doesn't change the fact that they keep activating the drama shlock in the first place.
>>280262314adding slop as a suffix to random words is no substitute for a real personality
>>280262314The height gap romance is the best part of the manga.
Hoshina san looks more like shikimori
>>280262228Currently reading it raw but and the worst part is the writing. It's so stupidly redundant I have to constantly double check if I accidentally flipped to the wrong page.
Characters will repeat the same phrases, word for word, across pages or even chapters and make huge deals out of nothing.
One full page was dedicated to explaining how good it was that an empty plastic bottle did not fall down some stairs.
>>280262426You can get that from any romance written by a woman
WHEN DOES THIS FUCKING AIR?!
>>280260271 (OP)Boys in this manga act like girls btw
They hang out and gossip all the time together
>>280261010No joke, September.
Netflix just announced a delayed release.
>>280262768Did they apologized?
>>280262768bro why you lyin
>>280262818You talking back to me, fatty?

>>280260271 (OP)I'm tired of handsome men give me an anime with a fat man and his sexy girlfriend
>>280262768>>280262818That's US only isn't it?
>>280262902Agreed we get too many anime about fat women getting a husbando why can't we do the reverse of that?
>>280262902Just read this
>>280262912*delay applies to tarrifed nations
>>280262902I'm pretty sure Accel world was the close thing we get but I don't remember
>>280262912America is the world, so yes.
>>280262945is there an anime?
>>280262994As far as I know no anime adaption and the manga ended
>>280263025well I don't care I don't read manga
>>280262902Actually we don't we have anime where the protagonist but it for shojo or shonon romance isn't that good looking? they always wanna sell the idea that the main character gets the amazing significant whose handsome/beautiful but the main character is just as good looking as their boyfriend/girlfriend so whats the point?
>>280262452my favorite from a recent chapter was a flashback to one or two pages ago taking up panel space
>>280263115this is a hard one to answer because I don't think any of us know the reason why
>>280262426honestly yes, the romance hard carries the series unlike most romcoms
the guy has more chemistry with her friend though
>>280262492I really hope they don't linger too long on the apology arc. I almost dropped the manga because for the first few chapters it's just constant apologies from every main character.
>>280263196You know? fair argument but I why don't we have more?
>>280263115Try the other Hana show
>>280231090
>>280263196In fact, he was actually super hot, just not japanese sensibilities hot.
Huge, super well built, handsome face in general with some easy adjustments.
>>280263214I watched it and its really good
>>280263229>just not japanese sensibilities hot*teenaged japanese girl sensibilities hot
older women in-universe thought he was hot
>>280263248It's just a shittier kimi ni todoke in general.
Because knt was pretty good all in all, barring one arc.
>>280263214I'm not the demographic so why would i watch it? where is my fat man one!
>>280263299>I'm not the demographic so why would i watch it?that series is actually published in a seinen magazine so you are in fact the demographic
>>280263328No man in the world likes ugly bitches
I have to agree with other anons Japan wants to sell certain romance anime ( not all ) as self inserts and while I don't care for self inserts at least do it right have the main character be as ugly or fat as possible
>>280260271 (OP)I am only interested in this show because it has the Akebi staff and director behind it.
Akebi is genuinely the most beautiful looking slice of life show of this decade so far by a wide margin, I'd almost call it arthouse at times. These people know how to draw cute girls.
>>280263344Exactly! that series was clearly made for women which is good for that but where is the fat man one?
>>280263358The MC in those shows is most of the time fairly normal
>>280263386Also airing this season.
>>280263574NOW THAT's what I'm talking about Thank you anon!! and the girls look really cute handsome dud looks like a cuck tho I hope he gets nothing
>>280263574Hopefully it does well enough to get a season 2 I heard are OP fat man gets a harem in the novel
I heard great things about it, but
>17 volume
>4 years
How far is the couple in it?
>>280263752They fucked at the penguin exhibit
>>280263386>published in Young Ace
>>280263362Manga art is gorgeous, this one has the potencial to be the best looking romance anime ever
>>280262945Isn't this the manga where the fat guy's best friends are punk and student council president? I only remember those two and the girl because those guys were such bros to the mc
>>280264057>>published in Young AceI am not an young women that series was clearly made for women
>>280264064It's pretty repetitive and sometimes not so consistent.
And btw, if all the characters wore clothes that were 1 size smaller Japan could clothe an entire African village. This oversized let's look like old fucking ladies trend should die.
Honestly, I'm slightly let down with the manga. Everyone's open and good natured, they're cute and all that, but they're totally blowing it out of proportion, as zoomers tend to do.
>>280262902>>280262945Give me more of this please men don't get enough good anime
>>280260271 (OP)This main girl is cute but it's hard to take this seriously with lots of saccharine bullshit like this
>>280260720
>>280264272You should be happy accel world even got an anime and 26 episode one at that if you need a fat man anime self insert
Get yourselves your favorite liquor and down a shot every time someone says "sorry"
>>280264299Its NOT ENOUGH THO!!!
>>280264299Didn't Reki and Miki promise a season 2 back in 2014? what happen to that?
>>280260271 (OP)This kind of show feels very dated and stupid. I'm sorry.
>>280264255anon Young Ace is a seinen magazine
>>280264057>published in Young AceThe man love interest is an incredibly handsome man whose popular with the girls why would this series be target for straight men?
>>280264342the movie flopped
>>280262768Are there English subs with the JP release today?
>>280260271 (OP)Oh this one's getting adapted too?
>>280264378I can't speak for its quality as I have not read it, but what would you think is a more modern type of Romcom?
>>280264407I don't think we'll be getting subs until next week.
https://www.livechart.me/anime/12838/schedules
>>280264385>seinen magazineI get that but why is this particular series meant to be target to me when the main girl was clearly design to allow unattractive women/ gay guys to self insert hell the main love interest is incredibly handsome young man
>>280263362>Akebi is genuinely the most beautiful looking slice of life show of this decade so far by a wide marginYou haven't watched many anime if you believe this, plaster a layer of makeup animation and heavy compositing is enough to be called one of the best looking shows nowadays. Only impressive thing about that show was kouno designs
>>280264405>the movie floppedI heard sunrise did something stupid to the movie which made it flop what was that anyways? I only remember people blaming sunrise
>>280263963I don't believe it, what chapter is it?
>>280263358>I have to agree with other anons Japan wants to sell certain romance anime ( not all ) as self inserts and while I don't care for self inserts at least do it right have the main character be as ugly or fat as possibleIronically agree with this I feel too many romcons are the same lately beautifully people dating beautiful we need something new and fresh
>>280264540There is an anime about a human girl fucking a wolf man coming out this fall I forgot the name but its new different
>>280264565>human girl fucking a wolf man...you have my attrition now
>>280264565>I forgot the name but its new differentI think your talking about this? because this is the only fall anime that meets the description
>>280264667>I can at least self insert as wolf Its good enough I guess
>>280264667I think my legoshi has downs.
Abandon your delusions, this is a page 2 chapters away from the end.
>>280264667Is not the one where the Dog kills the father and turns into a human right?
Althought that probably hasn't gotten an anime.
>>280264759No that one is by the beastars author
>>280264667isn't this the manga were her human parents hate the idea shes dating a beast man and they get into a big fight? anime onlys aren't ready for this
>>280264787>were her human parents hate the idea shes dating a beast man and they get into a big fight?for a cute romance series the drama was pretty real he even told her he would disown her if she brought him home lol
>>280264667OH shit my goat series is getting an anime why didn't anyone tell me? tho I wish the orginal got an anime this sequel series is fine too
>>280264743She rode his boner in 4k anon, I am not coming away disappointed.
>>280264888Well is just that's where it peaked and Gotou doesn't really change much, but if you know what you are getting, then go ahead.
>>280260271 (OP)>romcomStraight romance.
>>280264876>tho I wish the orginal got an anime this sequel series is fine tooAt least you will see the orginal couple from the first series animated in the sequel
I'm ready for Cloverworks kino
>3 cloverworks romance shows in a row on saturday
Jesus.
Cute also that drop in quality is noticeable
>>280265300>mfw I still need to catch up with the Bunny Girl movies
>most of the thread is talking about other series
wow
then again i've never seen /a/ talk about it although this allegedly has 17(?) volumes
>>280260271 (OP)>anime about self-insert female insert dating a criminal niggerWhy are women like this?
Why are there so many female-targeted anime this season?
>>280265591we have the occasional thread shitting on it
>>280265591Half the thread is the one guy replying I'm sorry unapologetically to every post.
>I like him because he makes oishi keiki
>all girl school
>all boy school
Does Japan still do this?
I have seen this artstyle before
What show was it
I hope its fans are not overselling it like Romio and Juliet, the way people talked about it sounded like a great Romance, and then I find it was one of those "we are a couple from the start but can't even touch each other hands without spazzing out", the moment they actually kiss is at the wedding and the guy loses consciousness, how disappointing.
>>280265873The romance is the only good part of this series.
Any time the friends and sometimes even the family get involved it becomes total ass.
>>280265769Already watching it live since its after bisque doll
>>280265954Based live chad
I didnt see the beginning
They are the only boys on the female school and she is on the female school? Why was it such big schocker?
>>280265954Its amazing how many shows release on friday/saturday
I watched 5 anime in tv yesterday all behind another
I want all you anons to relish the puppylove romance between the two.
Because the story always shits the bed whenever their friends show up. Lile chapter after chapter of exhausting forced drama no one asked for.
OP: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8WLNNu78mUk
ED: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4fND8qaTtE
>>280265591I'm really sorry about that
>>280265769She's not that cute though, I read it when it first started but could only keep up with 10 chapters before I got bored. I honestly think she's average looking.
It's one of those feel-good stories where everyone is unreasonably mature (especially for their age) and just plain stupid at the same time and ultimately nothing really happens. It's also one of those stories where it starts to give increasing focus to the much, much less interesting side characters after the main couple gets together.
>>280267083>where it starts to give increasing focus to the much, much less interesting side characters after the main couple gets togetherIts honestly a reverse of what usually happens in these stories
Usually the side character are more interesting
But here yeah all I fucking want is the main couple but everyone else is so ass and forced to tag along
>>280267240Raw torrent is out, subs waiting on fanTL or a week on Netflix because of the morons who run Netflix.
>>280264482Give me one better looking SOL than Akebi released this decade, not all time, this decade.
I'll wait then laugh at you.
>>280267288Doesn't this get released with subs in all languages regardless of region? Sakamoto was like that
>>280264667Oh shit I had no idea this was getting an adaption. Shame it's going to be censored.
>>280267363>frieren>sollol, lmao even.
>>280267288so it's blue box again huh
sigh. there goes any chance of good threads
>>280267418This appears to be releasing in Japan today (seemingly with just Japanese subs), other regions in a week with all subs, and in North America at some long delayed later date.
>>280267513Fuck that sucks
Netflix has their Anime Expo panel today sure they'll say "we are excited to bring this to you" despite locking up the US release for months.
>>280262902You got one just some days ago
>>280267761but Busamen ep 1 airs tomorrow?

>>280268779What's stopping someone from just taking the manga panel dialog and slapping it onto the raws?
You don't even need to know Japanese for that.
>>280268608Specifically romcom, anything under 6 volumes is often axed.
They are more likely trash than good so dont bother
>>280268608It ends with FeMC getting pregnant put of wedlock and fatty marrying her in a rush
>>280267336DIY and yama no susume and i don't even watch anime anymore, other than character designs from kouno Akebi didn't bring anything new or better at all. 2015 sol but with more post processing is all it offers. Recently concluded mono looks good too although i haven't watched it
>>280268807Or better, use AI to translate the JP subs coming out today and apply some contextual corrections (based on manga or not)... it won't take much time.
>>280269254>use AI to translateHow about you kill yourself instead?
>>280268807Are fansub groups dead now?
>>280269329They have been for over 10 years by now.
>>280269348Pretty sure fragments of groups were still alive like roaches picking up one or two shows they preferred, if no one is interested in this then it's time for /a/ to work on it.

My grandpa was 183cm and my uncle 192ms.
>>280260271 (OP)I guess it'll depend on how it looks in motion but that one still isn't quite the cinnamon roll energy I expected from her, it'd be strange if she was too run-of-the-mill pretty.
But I'm sure it'll be fine, it's her personality that matters most anyhow.

Here are AI subs, but properly done.
95% of dialogue is correct with original (I just watched it).
It has honorifics, Japanese name order and the sentences are more than understandable. There's no weird slang, no zoomer speak.
Good subs. Few minor errors, but seriously, AI is better when used properly than most localizes already.

>>280272031>bitching about typo
>>280271966Subs done by AI-kun for Ao no Hako were pretty good. Way better than netflix Tl actually.
>>280271966Limewire still exists?
>>280272383I think it's a different limewire. But it offers free storage on some crypto decentralized space, so perfect for sharing something like this.
>>280260271 (OP)>romcom about tall handsome chad getting a cute gfNo thanks,
Can't insert myself so no point watching generic cringe slop for women.
>>280271966Thanks. Where was this link originally posted? The Ao no Hako ones always got posted to TT. I'd like to know where to find EP2 next week.
>>280272289Yeah, this.
>>280260271 (OP)i really like the manga but i won't watch this. Subaru a cute
>>280273402it's the same guy who did ao no hako
>>280273672Yes. Clearly I understand that, since my post mentioned AnH.
Where did he originally post that Limewire link?
>>280273801He never did, someone just muxed the subs and uploaded the video
first half was good then second half went full shoujo slop. gonna keep watching because keki girl is cute
>>280274826Ah.
Where did he post the subs then?
>the threads for this show are gonna be dead as shit because of Netflix just like with Ao no Hako
Fuck Netflix.
>>280274952as long as we get AI-kun subs on time we can make it work
>>280275182Haha we got them for AnH but like over half the board was unable to find subs that weren't posted on Nyaa, which is sad.
Maybe if
>>280271966 posts them every week we can make it work.
>>280274952>Ao no Hako>deadThe fuck are you talking about? Nevermind they were fairly unreadable and uninteresting, but they had a resident bunch of faggots, probably anime only retards, who were pro Hina.
Plus the NTR schizos.
>>280275228>Haha we got them for AnH but like over half the board was unable to find subs that weren't posted on Nyaa, which is sad.there was an anon that refused to link it up so threads were always shit. so yea if anon links it up this time we'll have normal threads
>>280274862>>280274826Nevermind I finally managed to find the guy on Twitter:

The person who uploaded the Ao no Hako subs to TT oddly never linked to the guy's Twitter.

>>280275437I mean it wasn't exactly a difficult hint to figure out, bro. C'mon.

Uh, he's tall, has dyed hair and has piercings?
It's cute when anime girls say keiki.
The scratches on the clock... little details that Cloverworks throws in that most studios won't bother with.
Cloverworks is the new KyoAni.
>>280275836I could've solved it with a hint

Been awhile since I've had to watch a show without subs, shame since this one looked interesting
>>280277128Read the thread.

>half thread is [deleted]
uhh? Anyways the first episode was pretty eventful. Should be an enjoyable ride.
>>280277139I see I'm retarded, thanks anon
Super cute first episode.
>>280271966Are these really MTL subs? Because they're actually good, better than 90% of actual official subs these days even. I don't think I caught even a single error, and the prose was well done and seemed like native-speaker English too.
MTL-as-a-base with an actual competent human doing a proofread pass works perfectly fine
>>280271966these subs or
https://nyaa.si/view/1989586
these ones?
this show is pretty but it seems like it will contain retarded drama
>>280271966you're gonna do this for the rest of the show, right?
>>280277995Way much less than pretty much everything else I saw in the category, it's a feel good fluffy manga you go back to when you're sick of shit going wrong. I don't really blame people who don't like it because of that
>>280277995Most of the drama tends to be fairly quickly resolved with a generally decent resolution and generally doesn't suck the fun out of things. The obvious elephant in the room of the schools hasn't lead to any long arcs of drama over 20 volumes to date, it comes up at times in passing or as a cause of some short term plot point, but otherwise has kind of just lingered in the background.
>>280277567Downloaded and watched this scene in particular before making any comments and no they are not good, the subs are exaggerated when the dialogue demand the opposite which inturn results in poor flow.
The world is a beautiful place and full of hope and happiness.

They were, again, surprisingly good.
>>280278852>why_even_live.png
>>280277995For better or worse, when something goes wrong most characters are usually somewhat quickly willing to talk out their problems with other characters who are ready to listen and be understanding of said problems, and the characters with the problems are usually able to reflect on why they have that problem after talking it out and working to fix the problem
>>280260720>earrings on guyget this gay shit outta my face
>>280277197Osanai is cuter.
>>280274952This is way worse. You just had to wait an extra week with Blue Box.
This, on the other hand, won't get released until SEPTEMBER 7.
>>280279262I just got here, why september?
>>280279262see
>>280264458Official EN subs next week.
But Ai-kun is perfectly watchable. If we get Ai-kun subs every week on time, I'll be happy.
The viewership will be split up between two different days, though, and that will fuck the threads in the ass. Looks like the official subs will be coming out on Mondays.
>>280279339That's when the anime ends in Japan. They're doing a batch release.
>>280279339Because Netflix faggotry and releasing everything in bulk.
>>280279391>The viewership will be split up between two different daysEr, actually, it'll be split up between Ai-kun watchers, those watching the official subs that get released on Mondays, and those actually paying for Netflix, who will begin watching in September.
But fuck those actually paying for Netflix. Nobody wants to be in a thread with them.
>>280260271 (OP)This show will be popular with people saying itโs โrealisticโ because its main gimmick is it has the opposite approach to drama that series tends to have. Everyone in this series has no ego and is willing to swallow their pride in any situation and always makes the calm logical and rational choice in any situation whatsoever.
oh, kawasubs is also doing this
>>280279538Good. The same eight melodramatic tropes that keep showing up a million times need to fucking die already
I for one am all smiles at the release situation, because it means that I can practice rawchadding today and see how well I did Monday, spending two days with this cutie
>>280279538More than realistic they'll say it's serious and mature, because everyone knows adults talk their problems out and apologize when they do something wrong
>>280279596No itโs not that this show isnโt melodramatic itโs melodramatic in the opposite ways like apology fights
>>280279669Still a welcome change
then again I may just buy the manga if they're going to do the kanokari thing where side banter is written in text on the plate like it's a manga panel instead of putting any effort into adapting it into animation
Damn, she's so tiny. Her boobs look pretty big, tho.
>>280280048Itโs good for girls to be with a guy who can carry her away if the situation comes up
>>280279941>the kanokari thinglurk moar newfag
>>280280734spare me the lecture on the honored history of adapting manga by directly copying the manga panels completely unaltered; until they stop it I'm going to make a point to call it the kanokari thing in hopes that it takes off and makes them feel shame
>>280260271 (OP)I refuse to read or watch this series but I will still fap to Kaoruko if I come across a good one.
>>280277963RHOP had 2 or 3 errors in it, but are otherwise very impressive, I watched while also listening to the Japanese and they were much better than your average official translation. Most of the shows I have to basically just correct it in my head as I go, this time it was just both lines in Japanese and English coinciding with each other. It was a pleasant feeling for me.
The fact they are calling their own work as MTL is almost ridiculous to me with the usual poor quality I see from others.
>>280277963Just download KawaSubs released, anon.
I read this and this is just like any other romance ever. When I see some folks on the internet saying this is the best romcom ever, so peak blah blah blah,... I just want to ban myself from engaging with the anime fandom forever
>>280284111please do leave
>>280283932did a quick look over, some lines are worse, some lines are better. I have a feeling that using the manga to translate is just not ideal.
>>280284111I don't know about the manga but its obvious the anime is performing above its performance a little at this point. I'm enjoying it personally so far, but it seems like another frieren scenario where a decent anime adaptation is treated as the best of the best because of a large manga fanbase.
>>280284242>frieren>decent adaptationNigga it's K-ON-tier in terms of improving on the source material.
>>280284285as in it completely changes everything it can from the source up to and including its genre and ruins a generation of anime in the process?
>>280284285Go have that conversation with someone else. Well just know that was a different person from me at least. In my case its all hearsay from close friends. So the truth is there is no valid weight to my words on Frieren, though I do trust them personally.
>>280284460Are you quite familiar with Madhouse?
Because if you are, you'll understand what it means when I say it is their finest production.
>>280262793Death, Death to the TrannyDF
>>280284460Even if you call it their finest production, I'd still question it. I'll probably watch it between now and season 2, but honestly the more people say things like that, the more I'll be expecting it to live up to being the number 1 anime of all time ever...
>>280284642I wouldn't call it the number 1 anime of all-time. It is objectively excellent, though.
The reason it's voted number 1 is because not only is it objectively excellent, but it casts a very wide net regarding appeal. It has action for the shonenfags. It has very cute girls for the moefags. It has SoL elements for the comfyfags. It has "deep, introspective" themes for the deepfags. It covers all the bases. There's something to like for everyone in it.
Its content, which is sourced from the manga, may or may not be your cup of tea overall. But, production-wise, it's absolutely top-notch - a top-tier studio at the very top of their game.
The AI subs are okay even though it has few obvious errors. This chapter is easy because there's barely any dialogue, it's all new and fresh information without any context and it's 2 people talking.
It's going to get a lot more complicated. There will be 6 different characters apologizing simultaneously, calling each other good natured and referring to dumb small events from the past, so it's bound to fuck up a lot more.
Honestly, I would fucking kill myself before using AI subs for something that will eventually get official subs. Worse than Cam rips and streaming.
>>280285072>waiting>in 2025
>>280285072dialogue is hard for robots but easier for us chotto dekirus so I'm undeterred
>>280284242>I have a feeling that using the manga to translate is just not ideal.It's amazing how streaming services have successfully killed the vast majority of fansubbers. The fact that the teams working in the mines in the late '90s and 2000s are now in their 40s also didn't help. Now, we are entering the AI era, which to me symbolizes the final nail in the coffin for traditional fansubbing. The fact that releases often either copy text directly from the manga or blindly rely on AI is grim. In Japanese, context is everything. You can't just blindly copy the script into ChatGPT and expect good results.
Shit anime shit story doesn't care. You can literally guess every scenarios that will happen in this show. If shounen is called slop then people should start calling romance slop when they see shit like this.
>>280285404Since you responded to me, I'll agree that you cannot blindly copy the script, but I'll also say that you CAN use the script line by line and check for yourself and expect almost perfect results if your natively English and like basically N4 in Japanese and willing to type "ใชใซใชใซใจใฏโ into google whenever you aren't sure about something.
>>280285404Why wouldnโt near-perfect translation be possible using AI plus some basic contextual correction (something anyone can do without knowing much Japanese)? As far as I know, AI only fails due to lack of visual context and trouble identifying referents... not because it canโt produce translations that are faithful to the meaning.
>>280285494This is shounen, idiot.
Man what's going on with the release of the first episode? Are we not getting subs for the entire release of the series
>>280286322Netflix giving people every reason to board pirate ships as per usual
>>280268960who's the father?
>Netflix subs only available on Thursday
Fucking why
>>280286341That sucks because the first episode was incredibly good. Waguri is incredibly cute and Rintaro is a good male lead so far. They basically went on a date already when she bought Rintaro cake to thank him.
>>280260271 (OP)endless misunderstandings and nothing ever happen the manga #18425825159
>>280277567Yes these are AI subs, but the way this guy is making it is quite complex, thatโs why heโs able to get a high accuracy. Itโs not just slapping line by line into gpt (gpt is not good for translation on the top of it). His sibs for Medalist, Ao no Hako and Watashi shiawase kekkon were great.
>>280287484>gpt is not good for translationwould you like to challenge that with me?
Seriously.
>>280287545Claude sonnet, Google Gemini Pro and even deepseek are way better than GPT for translation.
>>280287588No, I mean seriously, do you actually want to communicate about this. GPT can provide correct translations, I'm sure others can as well. "provide a literal translation and breakdown each word" once you request this you will easily be able to perfectly translate anything with only a low knowledge such as N5 to N4. Obviously you NEED native English, but as long as you have that you will be fine. There are some phrases that you will spend a lot of time on because there is not truly great english translation, but it isn't a bad method in my opinion.
>>280287690also if that quote is not enough, request an authentic translation to understand true japanese culture, and it will be even better at providing a genuine and unfucked translation because even the AI will see it as problematic to not do so.
>>280287690Good for single sentences.
Not good for something like anime or game.
You need to provide a whole script at once to get a good result. Good AI subs are possible by providing context. Itโs the same as for human translators. If you take some lines out of context, the translation will never be good.
Also, the Kay for making subs consistent through whole season (or multiple seasons) is to feed AI with context from previous episode. GPT has context window too narrow to make it work properly. It has also a problem with generating ass formatted subtitles and long outputs. Itโs just not good for series translations. Thatโs why GPT translations are far from perfect in most cases.
You are wrong, but if you truly believe that I can't argue with someone that is insane in my eyes. I understand very well context. I know how to use context line by line. This is my life. I truly exist for this very reason. I will never back down on it. I crave for this world to understand the meaning behind each word and each setence and each anime that is created. Nothing else matters. I love anime more than anyone else in this world.
>>280287805however if you are willing to talk, is there for example any cytube channel you could speak on anonymously?
I genuinely can prove it to you that it is a good method if you are capable.

If such a configuration of schools existed in real life (high class girl school next to dumpster tier boys school), they wouldn't hate each other, instead the girls would sneak out at lunch break to get piped by these boys

>>280292981Not at all, girl is cute but all the characters feel somewhat stiff for lack of a better word
>>280260271 (OP)I sincerely hope they cut the amount of nothingburger chapters in the anime. I swear if you got rid of everything chapter where nothing of importance happens, this manga wouldn't have reached 100 chapters yet.

Looking at Kaoruko makes my heart go doki doki.
>>280260271 (OP)This was actually a good first episode, I liked it and the setup.
>>280294455they even kept the pointless "flashbacks to something that happened a couple minutes ago" that the manga is obsessed with (admittedly this is a direction problem), so I don't think so
>>280294455>>280297526In a perfot world they would completely cut all the fat and make this a lean romance between the two.
But you just know the friends will eventually show up and things just get bogged down in some of the most retarded drama notdrama shit I've seen. Like if you're just going to pour your heart out and talk it out to resolve it instantly then don't bother starting up the melodrama in the first place.

Man I beginning to hate it already. It feels like this anime will not commit to some stakes. You would at least put a theatrics here especially when a girl is looking at you.
>>280260720More proof that women don't know how to write men
OF COURSE IT'S THE GOD DAMN HANDS.
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
It's a shame that the story is fucking annoying with constant
>i'm sorry :(
faggotry, because the actual romance subplot is superb and confession is top tier with the way he just blurts it out and both of them can barely function as human beings afterward
>>280300610Then donโt watch or read shoujo.
>>280302169this is technically a shounen manga
>>280300610It just means a female writer decided to write a male main character with a specific personality type in mind.
"Typical men" are based on stereotypes and generalizations. Even male novelists write stories about losers, effeminate guys, macho types, pacifists, etc. Your dumb argument implies those MALE writers would not know how to write men because they're not following stereotypes or something.
Realism is a spook and you're a fucking retard.

>>280305481>ojouunfortunately she's not wealthy
>>280302958NTA but the Rintarou very much feels like a have your cake and eat it too type character for women. They want someone who looks like a tough bad boy and has the social aspects of that but also want a nice guy who would never do anything to them and just give them whatever they want
>>280306580God I hate women
Cute smol girl with a love of sweets, reminds me of Osanai despite not matching at all for personalities. Seems like a cute show but Rintartou is the archetype I hate, pseudo-delinquent in which he's only a "delinquent/scary" based on physical appearance. I'm not surprised at all that this was written by a woman. Very pretty show but it is Cloverworks so I'm not particularly surprised.
>>280305201She clearly came from Japanese Old Money so her having such a name makes sense.
My TikTok, Facebook and X are filled with this anime calling it the best romance ever made. Well, at the very least it looks the part

Is it a good adaptation or should I just read the manga?
Could just be me
But Kaoruko sounds very weird as a name. Why not just Kaoru?
>>280313680Likely the author giving her a unique name.
Her full name is weird to look at
"Kaoruko Waguri" Both very unappealing names
Meanwhile, the male MC has a very normal name, Rintarou
I thought at least Kaoruko was rich girl-sounding.
>>280313680It doesn't roll off the tongue well.
