Is this the first free anime?

Can't wait for this scene in episode 12

>>281938331
It will happen, but it will be the entire rest of the quintet finally making Renako take responsibility.

>>281938331
Kek. Teren is based if he adds a yandere to watanare.

Ajisai's arc first episode literally mindbroke the schizos even harder.

Majimafag is having a melty in the other thread

incest shotacon mmf_threesome

>>281938665
Meds anon, till it won't be too late for you.

>>281938385
It feels like there should be a girl the others have to save Renako from at some point. But I guess Kaho or Mai getting a stalker is more likely.

>>281938479
Not really, it's still one mentally ill schizoid samefagging hard to shit up the thread

>>281938921
there should be a boy

Okay gay pedo

No

You sure love thinking about boys more than girls, anon

At least post them all faggot

State of the anti yuri homosexuals.

>>281938238 (OP)
Ajisai imouto is next episode?

>>281939650
Probably. I figure its gonna be ping pong game, onsen and bedtime.

My dick is ready to explode to pic related next week

>>281938274
It isn't, but it is a retarded decision that ensures they lose potential revenue so we will never get a season 2.

>>281939765
Ajisai tries so hard to get through Renakos harem protagonist brain.

>>281938274
What are you referring to?

>>281920833
previous thread

Kaho arc, please.

>>281939765
Not sexing Ajisai on the spot is another Renacrime she will never live down

>>281939853
Ajisa can call Renako to her room, fully naked in the bed with her legs opened and telling her that the walls are soundproof and Renako will just think that is normal for an Angel to look like that and restrain her lust to not taint Angelsai.

>>281941180
>>281941212
SEXO

>>281938331
You dont even need a knife

>>281941212
why did they change the 3rd boyfriend part?

>>281941884
>the 3rd boyfriend
wat

>>281941927
That nigga didn't even read.

Gyarusai LOVE

>>281942060
Those must be both painful and fun

>>281938385
Kaho is going to be the menhera. She is larping as her ideal version of Renako, almost murdered Renako when she found her true loser slutty nature, sells her body to OL, keeps a monetary relationship with Renako and is trying to brainwash Renako.

Does anyone have a prediction of when they'll reveal anything for volume 8?

>>281942500
Hanatori kills Renako at Mai and Satsuki's wedding. The End.

>>281942500
2 weeks
trust the plan

>>281942643
Why would Mai & Satsuki invite Renako if that was the case?

>>281942757
Because they want Renao to crash the wedding and take her as her wife. Mai and Satsuki are betting that Renako will choose one of them, but Renako will choose both of them.

''In volume 7 when Satsuki was thinking about her plans & said ''Just like before unless Amaori is in perfect condition, it's pointless'' was she talking about the events in volume 4?

>>281942880
>Renako will choose both of them.
And that's why Renako will die.

>>281941180
Is that Satsuki's mom?

>>281943150
surrounded by all her wives

>>281943020
Ajisai almost wants to indulge in skinship with someone defenseless >>281940956 but consent is too important for her.
It's basically like pure love inside a wacky story but also serves as a good contrast to Mai and Satsuki.

>>281943838
>consent
If only modern yuri girls know that concept...

>>281943838
>consent
That's why Ajisai will lose

Do you think Satsuki will tell Ajisai about her plan? She trusts Ajisai enough to tell her about her part time job, something no one else except Renako knows about & she had to stumble upon it accidentally.

>>281943544
Are they the VAs or just some fans?

>>281944591
pls

>>281944591
They're AI.

>>281944591
a grandpa is browsing yuri threads?

>>281944591
rip our future..

>>281942880
>Mai and Satsuki are betting that Renako will choose one of them, but Renako will choose both of them.
Satsuki hates it when Mai is happy. She got pissed off seeing her on stage with Renako & Ajisai & she even said she shows no sympathy towards Mai for this whole fiancée business. Do you really think she would be okay with this decison?

>>281939597
>>281931711

John/Prick-bitching piece of shit

>Anti-prick-kun's off-topic shits survived
Mods wtf?

>>281945317
Satsuki will do anything as long as it makes Mai suffering.

>>281945317
If Renako were to choose Satsuki instead of Mai, it will be the ultimate NTR move.

>>281944591
The future is now, old man.
Seriously, how can you not recognize that as AI?

Everything is AI nowadays.

Renako is going choose [none of the above] and gets molested by faceless older women.

>>281946154
Enough about Kaho.

I have never posted in Watanare threads. I am proclaiming Ajisai supremacy regardless.

>>281946154
She should start with Satsuki mom. Hope Renako is into sister play.

>>281946758
>sister play
only Candy Boy

>>281941212
holy ugly

>>281945590

>>281946154
Final Volume: A super-sexy succubus is going to emerge from the underworld and try to seduce Renako. Super Sentai Watanare will summon color-coded mechas that fuse into an even bigger mecha, and the final battle will begin.

I predict there will be another game in volume 8/9 similar to the one in volume 2, except with Ajisai joining in. The conditions will be:
if Mai wins, Renako has to marry her
if Satsuki wins, she gets to marry Renako
if Renako wins Mai & Satsuki have to marry each other
And if Ajisai wins Mai & Satsuki have to marry each other, but Renako will have to date all 3 of them

I only like to know that Renako and Serena has similar bob hair so why Serena looks so ugly but Renako looks so attractive? Is it the outfit ? the length ? the sidelock? the face? the hat?

>>281939685
Probably ending with Mai's arrival

>>281947983
The age, Serena is a brat. Also, Serena's breasts are nowhere near as big as Renako.

This was probably the best episode of the season.

>>281947313
>t. homo
For someone who hates the T-word, you sound like one

>>281947313
kek you missed this one, retard >>281921992

>>281948146
Its about the hair, some reason Serena's hair does not look as thick and dense as Renako. It has this weird balding effect.

Kaho a shit.

RENAKOOOOOOOOOO

>>281939650
Be honest, if you were Renako...

>Ajisai is the most popular among female fans

why

>>281950972
muri muri

>>281951024
Why wouldn't she be?

>>281951024
Least threatening

>>281951024
>>Mai is the most popular among female fans
ftfy

>>281951024
Girls who self insert as Ajisai to have an abusive boyfriend like Renako

>>281951024
She's the closest thing to a female self insert

>>281931961
ominous

>>281951435
That's Renako

>>281951748
girls would never self-insert as an fps console gamer

>>281951748
Renako is a pervert & a gamer.

>>281945671
/a/ has fallen

>>281951024
Source?

>>281950972
She would have been my girlfriend in the first attosecond

>>281952315
It came to him in his dreams

>>281951435
This makes sense.

>>281938274

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free!

>>281947494
So you think the author is really going to commit to a poly ending, not just milk it for attention and then commit to whatever THEIR favorite pair is in the end?
Committing to a poly or harem end would make it unique in the genre, I don't think its been done before. But there would be a lot of pressure from advertisers, and therefore editors to not go so extreme. Certainly I would vote for going for a real poly relationship just for the uniqueness and to see how well the author could 'sell' us on the idea of a relationship like that actually surviving. But I am a realist and the business side thats paying for all this does have the final vote.

>>281953318
Nah, Mai and Renako will marry in France. That's obvious to everyone who isn't a delusional shipper

>>281931542
Every yuri.jpeg

>>281953755
Meanwhile in BL, the seme rapes the uke in the first chapter no matter how much the uke resist. And yurifags wonder why yuri isn't as popular as BL

But who is secretly sniffing Renako's farts?

I have one question...
why the fuck the subs had Satsuki's name turned into Satuki. every fucking time it derails me and i have to force myself to ignore this blatant error.

>>281953347
What part of the books makes you think that?
You might very well be right, due to the pressure to 'normalize' things for sponsorship, but can you point to something that makes this the authors most likely OTP?

>>281942199
It's important to see Renako through Ajisai's eyes. She's constantly putting herself down, but from Ajisai's perspective she's a doting soul. No wonder she wants to be Renako's imouto.

>>281943544
So someone wrote a piece of software to do what my brain has been doing automatically for 40 odd years? Or mostly so, it still doesn't grasp what the pink and green hair colors are supposed to be a stand in for.

>>281954065
Kunrei: ta ti tu te to
Hepburn: ta chi tsu te to.

>>281954065
I forgot to add examples.
Kunrei: Suzi to otya o kudasai.
Hepburn: Sushi to ocha wo kudasai.
Guess which romanization style the official subs is using.

>>281955515
The one that nobody fucking uses but they chose to use for this show for some reason.

>>281955806
Kunrei is used a lot in Japan.
This is also why they use Oduka Mai instead of Ouzuka Mai, although her name is おうづか　まい so the Zu is not completely accurate (it's づ　which is different from ず, although it sounds very similar to foreigners and even in Japan those sounds are getting mixed now so is more like a relic of the past).

>>281954007

BL is only popular because there are so many faggots like these >>281939023 when there are no cute kids, manga or anime, regardless of the story, will always be crap for them.

>>281956626
Just ignore and do the thing. Stop resummoning them.

>>281951794
They are mostly perverts, the rest are perverted gamers.

What killed the hype?

Renako imagining that Gyarusai is dating 3 women. Fucking hypocrite, you were ignoring your girlfriend Satsuki to flirt with Ajisai while having Mai as your side dish.

>>281941743
What did Teren mean by this, how will this affect volume 8's story?

>>281958430
Considering her attitude later, I don't think she cares about Ajisai dating other girls as much as her dating other girls and ignoring her.

>>281957840
Ajisai is boring

>>281951024
She's the one with an actual romance instead of just forcing herself on Renako.

The sweetest and most tender girl for Renako, the only problem is that this story arc can give her diabetes.

Weakest episode thus far. I also usually skip this part when rereading the manga, it only gets fun when the onsen bath begins. Then once they go out with Mai ro take photos it's another skip. Half of Ajisai's arc being skippable isn't great.

Lol lmao even

>>281959134
SHUT THE FUCK UP I'M TRYING TO SLEEP

>>281959319
Why is volume 3 the only volume where Renako doesn't appear on the cover? (not counting the SS)

>>281958054
Haruna brought all those views

>>281959469
Renako deleted herself

>>281959116
Women love rapechads. Still no source that proof Ajisai is popular with females

>>281959469
If the cover illustration is of Renako in close contact with Ajisai and completely out of sorts, it doesn't really fit the mood of the content.

Predict the next volume cover.

>>281960181
Hanatori holding Renako in a chokehold

Satsuki breastfeeding Kaho!

>>281960430
kaho baby....

Why doesn't Satsuki ever invite any to her house besides Renako for study session. She doesn't even invite Ajisai.

>>281960181
It will be Mai and Satsuki in wedding dresses with Renako being sandwiched in the middle with a troubled expression

>>281960476
Because she's embarassed about her house, speedreader-kun

>>281960476
It's her love nest, only her lover and her mom is allowed inside.

>>281960552
She trusts Ajisai though. She even told Ajisai about her part time job.

>>281960402
I think Satsuki would be in to it.

>>281960181
Renako in a tuxedo.

>>281960992
Renako is the shoujo MC. It makes more sense for Mai or Satsuki to wear a tuxedo

>>281960181
It'll involve this chick. Well, at least the bath scene will.

>>281960476
The entire Quintet apart from Renako makes the top ten in their grade, so I always figured it was a matter of necessity. The point of their sessions was specifically to help Renako, after all.

Does she look like someone who has a plan?

>>281938238 (OP)
>series is so unpopular the fans (small) have to buy bot upvotes for their twitter posts

>>281961572
She's clearly planning to slam the pussy.

>>281961599
no, she's planning to scissor the pussy
>>281959422

>>281961572
She looks like she's secretly an evil person

>>281961071
Isn't that Korbo's daughter?

>>281961815
Ajisai hasn't exactly been hiding it

I hope Ajisai's dark secret is that she's a rapist.

Good boys

>>281962947
Maybe it wouldn't have worked out with the fast pacing, but I would have liked to see this part being done less comedically. Would have been more jarring and made it clear how stressed out she is.

IT'S GAY, JIM!

>>281963095
I don't think it was supposed to be that serious in the LN either.

I miss Satsuki

>>281963798
Satsuki would laugh at you for posting this.

>>281963996
What if it was Renako posting this

>>281964024
She would sigh.

I hate Renako.

>>281964083
Shut up Renee

Is it true that male anime characters are only into yuri because they want to have a threesome with two female anime characters, in an anime?

>>281964077
But she would be really happy deep down in her heart, right?

>>281964165
Yes, but good luck getting her to admit it.

>>281964178
She needs to be honest before Mai marries Renako

>>281964083
Haruna...

>>281964083
Hanatori...

Don't open.

>>281964362
Looks legit.

Webm of Renako going gaga over Ajisai?

>>281954065
It is what they use on the official website.

Pretty good show, but it would be even better if the girls were yuri-pleasuring each other.
Same drama about who gets to be Renako's official gf, except when Renako spends time with each girl, they also fully yuri-pleasure each other's pussies and butts.
And to spice it up even more, it turns out Renako is really good at it, cause she secretly trained a lot with her sister. All the girls are okay with it cause it's hot and request shimaidon.

Honestly I feel like it would've done good for the story if the ending of Volume 1 was instead of Renako rejecting Mai when she says "even two girls can do it, I can teach you how", it instead fades to black with Mai attacking her and lots of moaning.

>>281964436
A great way to burn calories while strengthening their bonds of friendship while the other girls wait their turn outside the abandoned art classroom so they can burn calories and strengthen their bonds of friendship with Renako.

>>281965977
I think you're onto something, but I don't think that really fits Renako's personality.

Next episode will have the ping pong shit? That was cringiest part of the entire series

>>281963177
Ajisai's boyfriend

Where is Satsuki?

>>281967155
It's over Satsuki already lost.

>>281967155
Satsuki's great plan will end in failure because of Lucy.

>>281967155
Tomorrow night.

>>281967155
>inb4 volume 8 is as much about Lucy as volume 4 is about Kaho

>>281967155
Friendship with Satsuki ended, now Lucie is Renako's best friend

>>281967155
As usual.

>>281967155

Does the author have a bathing fetish or something

>>281967155
>>281967392

>>281967392
Looks like Renako is actually enjoying this

>>281967392
She's always so nice to everyone, huh

Is Musshu implying that...

>>281959128
During which episode Ajisai grows a sixth finger in her left hand?

>>281967155
Teren said the season 2 finale will likely be split into 2 volumes so Satsuki will likely be on the next cover. Besides that, we just had the second SS cover.

You think Ajisai shaves?

>>281962947
shame that those two useless tiny fucks exist

>>281967392
>Lucy will help Renako seduce Satsuki & stop Renee.

>>281967155
Why is blurred out?

>>281969028
I do it for her

>Next volume the one who has been scheming from the shadows steps into the spotlight.
I thought they were talking about Satsuki.

>>281967392
Soon it will be complete. Just need a higher quality and resolution.

>>281969419
>>281969434
Wow, Kaho's body is really erotic.

>>281969419
did author wrote Beheneko also ? too much bathing....

>>281967155
characters who have been on the cover:
Renako
Mai
Satsuki
Ajisai
Kaho
Haruna
Lucy

>>281969495
Calm down, Renako.

>>281967392
That looks tender as hell.

>>281967392
Lucy's mouth is literally an inch away from Renako's nipple. There ain't no way she doesn't at least lick it during that scene.

>>281967392
Lucy is really enjoying the renafits here

>>281967392
Without context.
Mai: A little uncomfortable, but excited too.
Satsuki: Totally charmed. Yeah... the tub, yup that's what I am looking at.
Ajisai: Horny nervous.
Kaho: One step away fromraping her.
Hanatori: Cumming.
Haruna: She is my sister, she is my sister.
Youko: Getting bitten.
Lucy: Wholesome hugging.

Do RenaAji have the same height?

>>281967392
>nickname in fandom is big baby
>this type bath scene
I am expecting a breastfeeding bath

The Amaori sisters should take a bath with the Nashiji sisters. Mutual Shimaidon.

>>281970660
yes, the quintet in order of height are:
Mai - 167 cm (5'5")
Satsuki - 165 cm (5'5")
Renako = Ajisai -158 cm (5'2")
Kaho - 153 cm (5'0")

>>281971170
I can see why Mai pisses Satsuki off now.

How can older women resist her?

>>281971667
They can't.

>>281962947
>two shota majimas
fuck off

>>281971693
Hanatori is an ephebophile, so she doesn't count.

>>281971170
Renako and Ajisai have the same heigh and their boobs are almost the same size too.

>>281971798
Renako & Satsuki share the same blood type.

>>281971843
As expected of her great friend Satsuki-san.

>>281967392
Not another one

>>281967392
How does someone with 2 girlfriends justify bathing naked with other girls?

>>281970115
That's the most and only wholesome bathing illustration Renako has.

>>281962947
Cute

>>281972681
To be fair, two of those girls are servants that are molesting her in the bath under the guise of cleaning her, and another is her sister.

>>281972681
Being naked with other girls wouldn't be so bad in a normal situation, Renako just happens to be a horny lesbian.

>>281967471
The author apparently didn't intend it at first, but after readers noticed it in the second or third volume, he just leaned into it.

>>281972990
If a bathing scene with a colored illustration happens 3 times in a row, it's a pattern already.

>>281973188
This is on Eku though

No matter how many time or girl she baths with, Renako can't wash away her sins.

>>281973437
She is bathing in sin.

>>281973188
Mai and Satsuki's could very well be a coincidence. And there's very few places you can go to for a summer getaway with Ajisai that don't feature co-bathing. It's either the beach, the mountains (which you still take a bath afterwards), or an onsen.

>>281967392
Great, there goes another nail for Mai Cuckzuka

>>281975591
Mai's girlfriend is hugging her fiancee in their birthday suits.

>>281975591
Why do people not care when the love interest gets cucked, but they hate it when the MC gets cucked? I mean for any series, not just Watanare.

>>281967155
>>281967392
Wait a minute this girl is just Mai with white hair.

Did Renako indirectly tell Satsuki that she likes her in this scene?

>>281975877
And Satsuki is just Mai with black hair. What's your point?

>>281975733
It would be equally funny for me is Renako gets cucked. I also laugh a lot when the the dude from Rent a whore imagines getting cucked.
I sometimes think that I enjoy watching people suffer a bit too much.

>>281975877
Does that mean Kaho will fall for her?

https://x.com/honyasannohito/status/1963212583818645727
What do you think this is?

>>281976419
Volume 8 news and cover reveal

>>281976419
More episode for Kaho arc.

>>281976467
>cover reveal
Hasn't the cover already been revealed?
>>281967155

>>281976538
I think those were just a leak, not from an official announcement.

>>281976593
How did someone leak this?

>>281976719
Same as every other leak. Someone knew someone with access or had access themselves to it.

>>281976040
Satsuki wishes she was as much of a rapestacy as Mai is

>>281975877
Eku is know for her sameface art style. Mai, Satsuki & Lucie literally look like the same character with a different hair color.

>>281977075
>Renako say Mai is her best friend
>She becomes her lover
>Renako says Satsuki is her best friend
>She becomes her lover
>Renako says Lucie is her best friend
>She becomes her lover
I can see it.

>>281977196
Eku also has a peculiar fondness of a weapon grade chin in her arts.

>>281977270
What about her bestie Kaho? Her childhood friend?

>>281977298
Mai is the breadearner wife.
Ajisai is the daughter.
Satsuki is the homely wife.
Lucy is the foreign wife.
Kaho is the pet.

>>281977298
Renako doesn't see Kaho as her best friend. Just delicious prey
.

How does Renako do it?

>>281977386
>Kaho is the pet
>>281977388
>Renako "A cat is fine too" Amaori

>>281956053
>>281965084
Japan is the last person should you be looking to for romanization.

Haruna is my gf

>>281977814
Renako...

>>281977388
>>281977388
Extrovert Kaho is her best friend
Contactless Kaho is her sex toy

>>281977814
We know, Renako.

>>281975135
Considering the huge narrative significance of Mai's bathing scene and how much of a set piece Satsuki's bath is, there is no way it is a coincidence.

>>281977814
Mai

>Satsukifags thought that she was going to be the main focus of volume 8
I feel sorry for them.

>>281978421
Just because vol8's cover s Lucie doesn't mean vol8 will focus on Lucie!

>>281978517
The characters on the front cover have always been the main focus up until now.

>>281978517
>>281978864
Teren said in the afterword of volume 7 that ''next time, the one who's been scheming in the shadow's steps into the spotlight.'' I think Satsuki will be a major focus of volume 7, but we won't learn as much about her compared to Lucy.

>>281978938

Those pics are from Animate and Gamers in Japan. They uploaded them too early yesterday.

>>281954065
It's weird timing since the Japanese government itself is planning to switch to Hepburn romanization.

Are we out of girls for Renako to bathe with? What are they going to do in volume 9?

>>281982029
Renee

Is there Eng sub for these Quintetto Invitation clips?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=icRbl-6m_bo

>>281982067
Why Renee?

>>281982029
either new girls or introduce 3 girls bathing, the first will be satsuki mai and renako

>>281977814
Blondie and blackie...

>>281982946
are a pair of bitches, deserve to be stones by kaho tyan

>>281982029
Are you done? What are you talking about when Rapenako still has to deal with her sister's friends and her girlfriends' mothers?

>>281982029
We've got plenty.
Komachi for the reconciliation arc.
Koto-mommy teaching Renako how to please a woman
Hirano and Hasegawa, so that she can bathe with her groupies.
Takada if Teren can think of something else to do with her.

Ajisai is a fucking slut

>>281983791
*fucking a slut

>>281982669
Is this Renako's PoV?

>>281983776
>Komachi for the reconciliation arc.
Didn't Renako let her past go & say she was going to forget Komachi existed?

>>281983910
I'm just saying, it's an option if Teren was feeling spicy.

>>281984135
Yeah, but it would shit on her character development.

>>281984202
I sincerely disagree, it could in fact move it forward even more. But obviously it'd be a thing that would happen after Renako grows a little more.
Afraid of Komachi -> Stops thinking about Komachi -> Forgives Komachi

So, are we gonna get Kaho arc or not?

>>281985673
Depends on Shueisha.

>>281986350
Add Ajisai & you're right.

>>281986350
Mai will marry Renako
Satsuki will move with Kaho

>>281986483
Ajisai will marry a man like all bi girls do

>>281986350

>>281987015
She got that DLC update.

>>281967155
The fucking volume cover is sideways? None of the other volumes are like that. Ts pmo

By throwing enough stones, we’ve managed to take down fierce animals much, much larger than we are.

Just keep that in the back of your mind when you see Renako.

Where do these girls get the money to just 'run away' and pay the train fare, the ramen shop bill, and then the onsen? Especially Renako and Asaji who can't work jobs?

>>281938274
>Free
>Geoblocked everywhere, get hit with Youtube AIDS every 5 minutes

>>281988531
It's their emergency funds thatt they saved bit by bit over time.

>>281988531
lesbian enkou

>>281984363
Komachi isn't coming back. Teren made it clear in volume 7 that this was the end of Renako being troubled by her past & dwelling on it. Volume 7 never showed Komachi's face & for good reason. She's a ghost from Renako's past that it's time for her to move on from. I'm & focus on the present.

>>281988531
From their savings and allowances. Unlike Satsuki, Renako and Ajisai are clearly from well-off families who can give their children money instead of making them work.

The afterword of volume 7 implied that Satsuki would be in the spotlight in volume 8 ,but what is she even going to do? How is she going to find out from Renako if Louis worth it or not? Is she just going to spend the volume tracking Renako & see how she reacts to the chaos unfolding around her?

Remember that Teren said all the characters will have animal ears in this volume.

>>281988751
I'd like to see the face of that unhappy woman who caused trauma to our little pink angel when she realizes that she now has an internationally renowned supermodel and a squad of tops eating out of her hand.

>>281990012
I want her to see her face after she has a big crush for Renako, but realizing that despite being a pink slut, she is the one woman she will never touch.

>>281976010
Both of them like it

>>281988531
Anon it takes 1000 yen which is like 3 dollars to visit a nearby town by train in Japan. The expensive part is the onsen, but they went to a non tourist town, and Renako described it as "run down" so they probably paid like 100-150 dollars at most on the trip

>>281990887
Like what?

>>281988531
renako and ajisai dont seem that well off, they look more like average middle class, and besides satsuki is a poorfag because she wants to, she couldve earned more money if she had accepted all the job opportunities that were offered to her just for being mai's cf ( and of course because shes got the looks and talent ), shes a poorfag by choice

>>281991524
>she couldve earned more money if she had accepted all the job opportunities that were offered to her just for being mai's cf
I don't think it was ever said that any jobs in the modeling business were offered to her. Satsuki is considered a beauty in universe, but nowhere near Mai or Lucie's level.

>>281988531
Ajisai practices enjo kosai. She dated many men for funding her trip

>>281991524
>renako and ajisai dont seem that well off, they look more like average middle class,
Renako can afford a PS4/PS5, a Switch & a computer.

>>281975591
cuckquean.

>>281991524
The modeling business has rediculously high standard, which Satsuki doesn't meet. Even Mai admitted that her connections to her mother are the only reason she was in this business.

Satsukisissies? I thought this was your volume????? Now you're cucks just like Mai??????????

>>281991818
She'll win at the end

>>281991818
>>281975591
Don't worry, she's going on a date with her girlfriend Ajisai this volume.

>>281991983
Mai's too busy with her mother's business to go on dates.

>>281975733
Happens to the MC = Happens to the SI = Happens to Literally Me
Happens to the Love Interest = Not Everyone Likes Love Interest = People Who Don't Like The Love Interest Laugh at Them and Are Happy Because It Means Less Competition
Turns out bad things happening to people you dislike instead of to you is funny. Who'd have thought?

>>281992066
She's going on a date with her mom then.

>>281992128
Mai's relationship with her mom isn't good.

>>281992156
If Renako can pull it off with Hanatori, Mai can too.

>>281991677
>I don't think it was ever said that any jobs in the modeling business were offered to her.
it's been stated that she couldve landed a modeling job, I think it was mai who said that and iirc renee offered a job during their first on-screen conversation they had, although it wasnt taken seriously by satsuki because she told renee that she already knew her answer about trying to recruit her as a model

also she doesnt need to be true top model as in international level to make more than enough money to live a good life, shes got the looks to perfectly be a japan only model

>>281991821
but mai also said all of that when she was feeling down and in vol 7 it was shown that she was getting recognition from the top of the industry as a whole, thats not something that can be achieved only because she works for her mom's company

>>281992190
What makes you think Renako's relationship with Hanatori is good, or are you saying that's what she should work towards?

>>281992265
I'm saying that if Renako can get Hanatori to molest her despite their bad relationship, Mai can also do that with Renee, if not better.

>>281992257
>although it wasnt taken seriously by satsuki because she told renee that she already knew her answer about trying to recruit her as a model
There must be some reason why she won't take the job beside ''being a poorfag by choice.'' I think Satsuki doesn't want to be around Mai any more than she has to.

>>281991741
Yes, middle class.

>>281992378
That proves that Renako is well off if she can afford all that.

>>281992084
Am I the weird one who giggles like a kid with a new toy whenver I see characters that I like suffering or crying?
I don't really care if characteres I don't like suffer, I literally don't care about them, but watching a character I adore suffering, crying and getting bullied shakes something at the core of my heart.

>>281992437
That's apparently pretty common with a bunch of authors. They love making the characters they like suffer.

>>281992437
>giggles
I don't, though it depends on the type of show.
If it's a story with cool fighting then the protagonist taking some damage can be cool, especially when you feel the second wind is about to happen.
But with a grounded setting? No.

>>281991061
1000 yen is currently $6.75
I never got 100 to 150 dollars a month from my parents just to spend. That amount would be a hefty car payment in my day. Maybe I got 150 dollars in a year.

Did Mai or Satsuki talk about Renako to Lucie while she was overseas? If so, that would explain why she's so attached to her.

>>281992755
Who is the character with number 6?

>>281992323
>I think Satsuki doesn't want to be around Mai any more than she has to.
thats literally her reasoning, which can be attributed to mai being oblivious about how satsuki feels about her, which is a more than valid argument but at the same she also says that money is really important for her and her family so why not just take the offers being handled to you by people who care about you, I dont want to extend more on this topic because I will end up calling a big bwaka which is something I dont really want to

>>281992851
Youko Terusawa

>>281992437
>Am I the weird one who giggles like a kid with a new toy whenver I see characters that I like suffering or crying?
Dunno, but I feel the same, although to me that usually only happens with my favorite characters in works that have some sort of drama or suffering (and even then it depends), otherwise I don't tend to feel that type of emotion.
It's quite complex.

>>281992851
Lucie's wife.

>>281992731
>My parents were cheap jews so that means all parents are jews too
And people underestimate the wealth of some of these characters.
Sure, Renako or Ajisai aren't fuck you rich like Mai, but go look how much does a house like theirs cost right. By today's standards, they're decidedly wealthy people with zero money issues whatsoever and plenty of money to throw around without giving a shit.
When a anime character is a poorfag, like Satsuki, they make it REALLY obvious they're a poorfag, like Satsuki. Comically so at times.
The average anime character in a modern setting is upper-middle class 98% of the time.
Besides, with how Ajisai's parents are using her as a free babysitter she probably gets a lot of spending money to use on the kids in case of emergencies or whatever.
>>281992879
>so why not just take the offers being handled to you by people who care about you
Satsuki is prideful as fuck.
But more than that, it's also typical poorfag pride. Taking "handouts" is absolute unacceptable. They feel like they have do it it themselves or "it doesn't count".
Lethal combination of pridefulness there.

>>281992879
>which can be attributed to mai being oblivious about how satsuki feels about her
Mai isn't oblivious to the fact that Satsuki finds her annoying. The 2 of them never hang out alone together despite being childhood friends unless either of them need something from the other.

>>281992731
When did Renako ever say she got 100 dollars a month? She very clearly said she had been saving for a long time. And she was wiped out after the trip.

>>281992964
Satsuki and Mai are the most wholesome and conflictive childhood friends I have seen in a while.

>>281992323
>There must be some reason why she won't take the job
Pride, as usual. She would only get in through her connection with Mai. And even Mai feels terrible about being a nepo baby who gets picked over other girls only because of who her mom is.
It'd be even worse for Satsuki.

>>281992964
That makes it even worse from Mai's side then. Means she knows what all the issues are and yet does nothing to solve them and if anything keeps doing stuff that makes them worse and worse.

>>281992948
>When a anime character is a poorfag, like Satsuki, they make it REALLY obvious they're a poorfag, like Satsuki. Comically so at times.
I remember watching an interview of a Light Novel writer, but he said that the reason he started to read LNs (he started with Full Metal Panic) is because with the same money he could buy manga volumes and read for 10-30 minutes, he could buy a LN volume and read for hours.
So basically he only got into books and writing because he was a poorfag. I wonder if that applies to Satsuki as well.

>>281993001
I wouldn't call their modern-day relationship wholesome by any means. Especially with what Satsuki has done & said lately.

>>281991061
>>281992731
Talk in yurifag lingo please, you're in a yuri anime thread. How many Sendais?

>>281993016
>So basically he only got into books and writing because he was a poorfag. I wonder if that applies to Satsuki as well.
Wouldn't be surprised. Plus, since it's Japan, I can assume public libraries are well-maintained and very well-stocked.
That said, not that much of an issue nowadays with the advent of smartphones.
That said, Satsuki's is Satsuki, so she's the kind who's elitist enough to say it has to be physical books or it doesn't count.

>>281993015
Mai thinks she's perfect. It's a common issue of Her's.

>>281993053
They are wholesome if you peel all the toxic layers.

>>281992964
>The 2 of them never hang out alone together
Literally in the last arc Satsuki and Mai spelled out that they spend a lot of time together and Satsuki was the only person Mai hangs out with before the Quintet.
That only changed when Renako entered the picture.

>>281993098
>Renako entered the picture.
I knew that pink sluts are friendship destroyers.

>>281993097
So most of the 2020s yuri are wholesome to you?

>>281993062
The whole trip likely costed no more than 3-4 Sendais. Maybe as little as 2.

>>281993132
Yes, of course. How did you know?

>>281992887
She is the one that bites, right?

>>281992948
>Besides, with how Ajisai's parents are using her as a free babysitter she probably gets a lot of spending money to use on the kids in case of emergencies or whatever.
couldnt that also be interpreted as her parents not having enough money to hire an actual babysitter or housemaid

>>281993098
>Literally in the last arc Satsuki and Mai spelled out that they spend a lot of time together
Satsuki only spent time alone around Mai in the epilogue of volume 7 & that's because she needed to advance her plan.
>and Satsuki was the only person Mai hangs out with before the Quintet.
Satsuki doesn't want to be alone, but her cold personality puts everyone else off, so she hangs out with Mai.
>That only changed when Renako entered the picture.
Geez, I wonder why it changed? Why does Satsuki spend more time together with a girl she's known for several months & never hang out alone with Mai?

>>281993233
Yes

>>281938665
this is love
this is life

>>281993082
>That said, Satsuki's is Satsuki, so she's the kind who's elitist enough to say it has to be physical books or it doesn't count.
wrong,in the translated ss she says that she would be buy a shit ton of ebooks because she doesnt have enough space at home for storage

>>281993252
>Satsuki only spent time alone around Mai in the epilogue of volume 7 & that's because she needed to advance her plan.
What part of "it only changed after Renako" did you not read?
>hur dur if I didn't see it it doesn't happen so these childhood friends obviously never spend time together despite the story explicitly telling me they were
>Geez, I wonder why it changed?
Because Mai now had someone else to cling to. Retard.

The Quintet exist because of Renako
Renako was friends with Kaho in elementary school
Renako became friens with Ajisai before starting High school
Renako approached Mai & asked to be friends
Satsuki noticed Mai hanging around a group of beautiful girls & wanted in

>>281993252
>never hang out alone with Mai
Even in the current time we are repeadetly told about Mai and Satsuki hanginf out off-screen.

>>281993279
Tasting some fresh koala meat.

>>281993331
Why would Satsuki spend more time with Renako than Mai if they're childhood friends?

>>281993330
>because she doesnt have enough space at home for storage
Well, case in point? If she could, she would. It's not a matter of lack of desire but lack of means.

>>281993354
>Even in the current time we are repeadetly told about Mai and Satsuki hanginf out off-screen.
When? Also, offscreen, really?

>>281993371
The same reason why Mai wants to spend more time with Renako than Satsuki.
Renako's pheromones are just that strong and powerful.

>>281993374
>Well, case in point?
not really, a true elitist would bitch about ebooks at any given opportunity, she just loves reading

>>281993458
And she likes the raunchy ones.

>>281993484
just like me

>>281993401
>Also, offscreen, really?
The story is about Renako and even mist if her life is off-screen to us.

>>281993371
Pretty normal that people spend more time on a new relationship than an old one.

>>281993497
15 pages of sex.

>>281993540
Older woman x JK no less.

>>281993330
Just pirate the damn books Satsuki you fucking retard.

>>281993563
Piracy is frowned upon in Japan.

>>281993557
No wonder that Satsuki went from a pure violated maiden from her first kiss to a kiss demon in a single night.

>>281993563
She probably does, another reason why its mostly ebooks. They're not that much cheaper than a regular softcover anyway.

>>281993563
yeah thats the solution but she doesnt even have a tablet to read her books, yeah she could use her phone but I think she specifically mentioned the tablet in that scenario

>>281993614
Which begs the question, did she self insert as the older woman or the JK? How did she feel when a bunch of sweaty older women touched her during her photoshoots?

Reminder that Ajislut is Bisexual

>>281993596
So is lesbianism but here we are.

I would kneel to Teren if he makes the story go full degenerate and batshit insane. Incest, menhera, etc.

Satsuki needs to marry me so she doesn't live in poverty anymore

>>281993684
Satsuki has too much self-respect to self-insert. Even when paying the dating sim she role-played as Renako instead.

>>281993802
Satsuki hates boys even more than Renako
.

>>281993734
I wished. The whole reason why we have all this menhara shit is because nips stopped seeing lesbianism as taboo.

>>281993810
>Even when paying the dating sim she role-played as Renako instead.
Didn't she do that because she couldn't identify with the MC?

>>281993853
exactly

>>281993883
So, it's not a matterof having too much self-respect to self-insert, she just didn't find the MC relatable.

>>281993921
It's kinda hard to find a MC relatable when you have a strong sense of self.
I never relate to any MC, including those meant to be self insert.

Lucie is going to be the Kaho of volume 4. She'll help Renako realize her feeling for Satsuki & give her the confidence to confess to her.

>>281994092
*Lucie is going to be the Kaho of volume 8

reminder that hanatori fingered renako not once but twice

>>281994281
When was the second time?

>>281994281
did she come

>>281994548
>>281994548
what do you think? ____________yes

>>281993540
40 pages actually

>>281993976
Even in rpgs where you make your own character, I'll usually headcanon a backstory for them
It took me a while to get used to the fact that people actually self insert, I thought it was a meme for the longest time

>>281994092
Pretty sure if anyone's gonna confess to anyone, it'll be Satsuki to Renako. Satsuki still needs to get her feelings figured out, and that's going to be a major part of her scheme.

>>281992378
She lives in a large detached house in Tokyo. That plus the electronics and attending what seems to be a fairly exclusive high school (since Mai is enrolled there) puts her solidly in the upper middle class at the lowest.

>>281993596
>>281993563
An LN author would be the last person to promote book piracy in their own works and an LN publisher would be the last one to publish it.

>>281995002
it was stated that their school isnt that exclusive, it's a good one but far from being exclusive in botch academics and tuition

Soon.

Just watched the episode. Ajisai is just absolutely boring, yeah. I thought that maybe her arc will start showing her in a different light, but so far no. Her voice, her reactions, her gestures, her emotions and looks, just everything screams (or rather whines with the most painstakingly boring intonation), "what a fucking perfectly boring girl".
And what's even worse, the whole narration is wanking over her, every single character is singing praises to her. Like the author wants you to love her, so she makes everyone say how good she is. It's the second time after Mamako from Okaa-san online when I see this level of wanking, and both times the actual character was just terribly boring.

>>281995143
>Just watched the episode.
no you didn't

>>281995264
Yes I did.

>>281995295
No you just took random screenshots.

>>281994281
all bets on Hanatori sweep

>>281995295
Hetakuso Renako.

>>281994694
I predict that Satsuki has feelings for Renako & Lucie knows because Satsuki talked to her all the time about Renako while Lucie was in France.

>>281995308
Admittedly I only took 10 (against my usual 200+) because there was nothing worth capturing, except for Mai scene and her terrible lipstick.

>>281995143
Ajisai is grounded and yashikei which is refreshing after the gaming insanity that the last arc ended.
It's about enjoying the vibes, almost like a genre switch.

>>281995340
Also, Lucie knows that Mai is in love with Renako for the same reason & the only reason she got engaged to Mai is because she wanted to meet the person Mai fell in love with.

>>281995143
There's a way to do the generic perfect girl, an Aho Girl did it well in the form of Sayaka. Funnily enough she's also called an angel by the MC. They do it by having her join in on being silly while still retaining her good girl persona. Ajisai is so fucking bland.

Seeing Satsukifags coping after how cocky they were is absolutely hilarious.

>>281995374
Ajisai herself feels like a fish out of the water in watanare. She belongs to a fluffy late 2010s YH series, not watanare. Which makes her unique and explains why so many people like her.

>>281995143
Congrats, anon.
You've finally realized that people have shit taste and will most always go for the most safe, generic, milquestoast, "feel good" choice of them all when presented with a wide variety of flavors.
It's "I like him because... he's nice" except directed at one of the girls instead of towards the MC.

>>281995461
Ajisai is still the best girl
Mai, Satsuki & Kaho are different levels of shit

>>281995374
Someone that boring can't be called "refreshing", it just doesn't make any sense. Her arc might be a change of pace, but it can't be a good thing on its' own.
>>281995404
I tried to come up with another example, but no one came to mind, so yeah, that works.

>>281995497
>but it can't be a good thing on its' own.
None of the arcs are good on their own dumbass.

>>281995404
No, no, you see, Ajisai is actually very deep because she's actually not really a good girl and wants to be free and devilish and selfish and the good girl is just a facade she puts up because it's what everyone expects of her.
Just ignore how she goes back to being a goody two shoes 99.9% of the time right afterwards and going back to being the thing she supposed hates being.

>Sudden Ajisai bombardment
Why it took this long? Ep has been out for a while.

>>281995555
He's pretending he watched it for the first time so that people don't notice him samefagging.

>>281995517
The argument was that hers is "something different" from chaotic and over-the-top Satsuki and Mai arcs. I'm saying that being "something different" isn't enough to make it good.
>>281995555
I just finished it. Wasn't excited for Ajisai episode, so decided to postpone watching it.

>>281995374
Yes. I've said it before: each of the girls' arcs are different Yuri subgenres.

>>281995606
It's Ajisai world now, stop downloading the show.

>>281995729
>If you dislike a single character of a who then you must drop the show completely
What kind of deranged behavior is this?

>>281995729
Sorry, you'll have to bear with me for 3 more episodes.

I wonder if Teren was on the fence of making Ajisai have a Soyo twist.
In the end it's for the better that she's genuine pure love, the other characters already do the heavy lifting with negative traits, so Ajisai has a niche.

>>281995555
Because nobody took his usual "bisexual" bait.

>>281995840
This is mostly because the schizo who always choke with the bait hates harem and poly.

>>281995825
>Soyo twist
You'd have to be blind to not see that "twist" coming.

>>281996078
I mean I noticed that she had some agenda, but it was like a dynamite disguised as firecracker.

Ajisai is kino and popular, and schizos would never get the reason why

>>281996168
She isn't, she's a fucking bisexual bitch and a cunt that gets in the way of the true love story of Mai and Renako

Maifags and Satsufags should admit that Ajisai is more popular than them.

>>281938665
Reminder that Ajislut milks her shota brothers

>>281996740
Mai wouldn't do that.

>>281995143
I completely agree with this post
Latest episode is probably THE most boring Watanare episode

>>281995143
I agree, bring back Satsuki not this boring character. I wanted a fun anime if I wanted siblings fighting I'd go outside my room.

>It's really was the local schizo samefagging hard, again
Lol lmao even

Haruna x Ajisai is OTP.

The sisters' quarrel is finally settled, and the big story is over!
Or so you might think, but then Mai's engagement scandal comes up!

Lucy's causing a commotion,
people's intentions become all tangled,
Renako's taking a bath...!

And Satsuki...
　　She's being Satsuki to the fullest

Who's this harlot getting touchy feely with my pure Rena-chin?

>>281999211
A crumb of copium for Satsukifags.

Satsuki has the best chemistry with Renako
She's going to win, I can feel it

Why are Haruna's reaction to Renako's cheating so popular?

>>281999230
That collar is so hot

>>281999727
Because people love Haruna and Teren should unironically have Renako dump her girlfriends for her sister.

>>281999211
But what about Kaho?

>>281999727
Cuz it's funny

>>281999230
I bet lucy would transfer to renako class and sit beside her

>>282000232
She's going to steal both Ajisai's seat and her girlfriend?

>>282000396
I want to be that desk.

>>282000396
Why does she rest her boobs on the desk?

Was just reading the manga and physically winced when Mai appeared during the Ajisai hot spring date to ruin it.
