Why did the anime cut out how much of a homosexual Hachiman actually was?

>>280559775
One of the VNs had a Saika Totsuka route and it was easily the least contrived and most natural of all of the routes. Anyone sane would pick Saika over any of the other sluts.

Many such cases

>>280560174
And some very recent examples.

>>280559775
Because anime is for casuals?

>>280559748 (OP)
I rage dropped s3 because everyone became fucking insufferable.

>>280560217
Don't act like the novels actually elaborate on it in any meaningful way. It's still a bait "relationship" only meant for gag/fetish purposes and only the VNs expand on it in a meme route way.

>>280560398
It's still funny how Hachiman seems to lust more for Saika than any of the girls.
Also let's stop ignoring he would have gone full gay if Saika hadn't literally rejected him first

>>280560480
When did that happen? People say it's a gag but I still think it only served to devalue all of the girls since Saika is much more appealing as a character. Who the fuck knows why the author did it but it's probably just fetishizing.

>>280560398
In the LN Hachiman is more serious with Saika and the anime never mentions how 8man actually checks out guys or that he keeps a list of all the hot twinks in school. If a guy appears 8man always comments on how good looking he is.

>>280560760
Always did think the author revealed his power level when it came to how he wrote the 8man/Saika bits. They're a hundred times more subtle, well written and enjoyable than any of his meandering, generic and annoying interactions with any of the girls. It's still funny how people still go
>it's all just a joke man no homo no homo

should be about time he works for a bl show
he already worked for two yuri shows and that's enough
now use your useless moid dick to write bl you fucking moid author

and yeah pic-related should've been bl

>>280561172
>BL by and made for men
you couldn't get more niche and uncommercial even if you tried

boomp

>>280562603
only anime i'm keeping up with this season strictly for this character

>>280562665
He cute and also zesty

>>280559748 (OP)
true but evafags will never admit it

>>280562748
I appreciate that he's not a total doormat and actually has some personality unlike others in this new wave of "otokonoko harem protagonists".

>>280562876
Truth. I'm sick of them saying he's useless and making him believe it when he's cute, male, and has a few skills.
There's literally nothing else that matters in life

>>280560760
>more serious with Saika
>subtle
Are you people retarded or just can't read? 8man fetishizes Saika and never recognizes or respects Saika as his own person. He treats Saika as a poor little princess who needs protecting when the reality is Saika's a confident and competent club president who 8man often goes to rely on for emotional support and advice. And Saika just takes this patronizing gaze and never says anything about it because he's better than that.

>>280563536
Saika could have just fixed 8man by dicking him down

>>280563536
Even if we surgically removed Saika from the novel there is evidence 8man is at least attracted to males.

>>280563536
Nope, that's all of your insane conjecture. It's never meant to be deep at all, neither in the sense you're talking about (deluded) and the sense that others anons are talking about. It's quite literally just baiting people who'd browse /cm/ as a gag/goof. Nothing more than that. At least the people taking it serious as a love route are more validated by the fact an official piece of media threw them a bone while your overtly cynical viewing of their relationship is just bullshit.

>>280562603
His butt looks way more bubbly in the manga.
Just look how soft everything (bulge included) looks

>watching anime in 2000 + 25
you get what you deserve

>>280559748 (OP)
EVery time.

>>280563188
The series is basically an extended treatise on why Yuu is the perfect partner

shame. never watching.

>>280571048
Perhaps I could interest you in Kunisaki Izumo, the author's first series?

>>280563829
You're the equivalent of the nothing ever happens guy except for literary analysis.

do they all start becoming friends in the third season because I'm halfway through 2 and it's still just a bunch of jaded teens that hate each other for some reason

>>280559748 (OP)
lol
