Anime about Bowling and Cute Girls not dying.

>>281939781 (OP)
sum1 gon die

>>281939781 (OP)
What's Mai thinking of here? And don't say bowling.

Pickleball

>>281941598
Anon, that's the only thing she thinks about.

>>281939972
Anons will die.

Is the suffering finally happening?

>They switched the characters for OP
>Sengoku band
KINO

>>281943428
Gonna wait for anon to analyze the OP imagery and bowling symbolism again

Sayuri's chest is huge

I lose count of how many suicide attempts are there

>Let's decide who to die with bowling!
Why is Mai like this?

If the Sengokus are their ancestors, does it mean they're all distantly related?

>beginning of new OP
Will they actually bring the sisters forward in time? That may explain the letter Mai was reading if the sisters were left at recent past.

>>281944448
I counted 5

>>281943466
>>281944401
Why are the modern girls stone statues in the OP

>It is the suicide intervention episode
Whoever greenlit this anime as a tourism advertisement anime should be named the Prime Minister of Japan.

Will we get the veteran seiyuu grandma version of the Turkey OP, Donuts?

TURKEY

To be fair Mai almost died if not for Sayuri

>>281944611
Let’s make a bowling show with no bowling and taking about how tough things were for girls but not show to much.

>>281945247
Not only there is bowling every episode, we are also actually shown how tough they have it though? Especially Suguri and Akebi.

>>281945247
They bowl a lot, and cute girls keep almost dying or getting raped.

>>281945430
>almost

That's the problem.

>>281945597
They set it up for fans to finish while still getting that local government tourist grant.

>>281945597
Sengoku rape has been done to death. Something about it not dwelling on all the rape is slightly novel.

>Nozomi is still calling Suguri ikeman
Yep she is gay

This anime is retarded, in the good way.
I wish more original anime were retarded.

Describe your first deito with Nanase.

>>281945963
We talk about her nerd shit on Skype for a while, meet at her place to mst3k some 70s American porn, kiss once then say goodnight as I leave. Then later we get on Skype and cyber like always.

i'm a bit concerned about some of the imagery in this new op

>>281946910
BOWLING!

>I'M GOING TO KILL...myself
we waited a week for this fakeout huh

>>281946952
OH BOY!

this is all a bit dramatic don't you think

how the fuck can they be twins if one is pink and one is blue

>ok guys i need you to kill one child and let us marry the other and we'll protect you, if not we'll burn your country down
what the fuck was his problem with twins, there's nothing wrong with either of them

>twins are bad because they're just bad ok
oh it's nonsensical old timey peasant superstition bullshit, of course

AOTY

>>281947125
>thinking of bowling

Bowling?

>>281947162
>thinking of muh dad in Africa

this is genuinely so fucking retarded
medieval people were actually braindead
>NOOOOO YOU HAD 2 BABIES AT ONCE IT'S A DISASTER WE GOTTA KILL THEM
i thought having kids was meant to be a good thing back then
just???

>locked up in a horrible room, forever
what kind of life is this
why not send her to another country on the far end of japan or something, anything has to be better than life imprisonment

>>281947211
This looks more more nature then last time.

WHAT THE FUCK

I AM CLAPPING??? I AM STANDING UP AND CLAPPING WTF?????

>>281947073
There are black-white twins in real life.
All that needs to happen is two eggs getting inseminated at once, aka non-identical twins.

>>281947242
Where does she poop?

this show is so retarded

They might be twins, but Akebi is way more attractive than Sumomo.

the alt op is so fuckin cool

>life or death proxy bowling battle using twin princesses between rina and mai
this anime is something else man

What a retarded episode

>>281947392
>>281947394
Horny bowler almost died while copping a feel off a suicidal girl

What a kino episode.

>allow me to be your second (thrower)
>the "second" was also what they used to call the assistant who would behead a person committing seppuku after they gutted themselves to give them a quick death
the reference isn't lost on me

>yay let's all play bowling together actually, we gotta make sure one of our sisters die tonight!
what a fun family bonding experience

You FOOL! You fell right for my ruse! Just right now, you had FUN, did you not? AHA! Surely now, you will no longer want to DIE? To cast aside your LIFE to restore your family's HONOUR! NAY! You will live, looking for more FUN in the FUTURE! Ah, if only you noticed my dastardly trickery sooner, you wouldn't have to continue living with your family, who loves you.

Where is the trigger warning for the double suicide attempt?

>>281948312
I dont think it's being streamed by HiDive

Stitches.

>>281947970
Absolute mastermind.

>>281948235
>>281947970

What a deep genre.

Damn, you all got me excited with all the talk of suicide, but it's just the standard Japanese great shame on famiry bullshit
the real shame is how hard this fell off, from "watch me practically demonstrate what it means to protect something with your life by taking a shower in this man's blood" to "now it's MY turn to hold a sword up to my throat and whine in self-pity!"
or was it never actually that good? maybe I overrated it when I caught up to it mid-season because it was such a fresh contrast to Mille-feuille that also devolved into petty club drama but without anyone getting teleported to the sengokujidai

Last stitch.

>>281948353
Seven girls, huh? I guess I'll start with the one who will make strong babies.

Fucked up that it's regular lightning and not ball lightning

>>281947106
twins were considered ill omen in many ancient cultures, anon. some even believed twins only have half of a soul each.

>>281948485
ball lightning is completely fake bullshit, just people mistaking other stuff

The opening change made me shit myself. Damn I love this show.

>>281948644
Ball lightning is 100% real. You may be thinking of dry thunder which is 100% fake and just the result of loud thunder far away.

>>281947970
Pink energy is too powerful

>Suguri is younger than Sumomo (and Akebi)
For some reason I thought it was the other way around. Did I speedwatch through that explanation /a/?
>sisters did a cover of the OP with new visuals
Kino.

...just move to a different village where no one knows who you are?

>>281947883
Unless you suffer from tetraplegia, acute respiratory distress syndrome, or another seriously fucked-up condition.

>>281949184
Anon, people didn't just move so easily back then, she'd be a suspicious stranger with no roots, where would she even live in that village? She and her sisters are nobility so they can live because there are peasants feeding them and other servants supporting them, what would she even do on her own?

>>281945859
Who said that women can't be ikemen?
https://dic.pixiv.net/a/おっぱいのついたイケメン

>>281947514
>you can't kill me if I kill myself first!

>>281943466
It's pretty suspicious that Sumomo has bandages on her head, if she was just dressed present-style in the OP I wouldn't necessarily think it would happen in the story but the bandages make the situation way more specific.

They're taking Akebi back to the future with them, aren't they?

>>281949727
oh fuck that makes sense, smart anon

>>281947773
you're talking about kaishaku, here they said sukedachi which just means helping someone in battle

>>281949585
Women make the best ikemen. There's an entire business built on that fact: the Takarazuka Revue

>>281949727
But the OP shows Sumomo in the future.

>>281947220
That's just japs and chinks being more retarded and superstitious than euros

>>281949585
I love Ikemen women

To me, this series is at its absolute best when it capitalizes on the absurdity of its own premise and has fun with it. That's why, even though I don't particularly care about the whole family drama (if I'm being honest), I enjoyed the whole "let's have a bowling match to decide who kills themselves"

>>281947626
Her sisters take turns.

>>281947628
In all the right ways.

>>281950190
>even though I don't particularly care about the whole family drama
Having said that, since the characters are so likable, the emotional beats still work.

Holy kino episode. From the very first second, the changed OP is as good as the first, so much imagery. Cried during it and also towards the end. Full of soul. Always believe in Pink.

>She's the prettiest sister.
The permanent bitch face gene must have come from Rina's great-great-great-great-grandfather.

>>281950427
Always love pinks
Protect pinks

>>281939781 (OP)
What's your guys shittest bowling pun? Bonus points if it's related to the Turkey anime

>>281950765
Honestly I don't think it can get much worse than the boring and bowling "pun". I loved it don't get me wrong but that's like so insipid and dumb I couldn't believe there was any payoff.

>>281948326
Crunchyroll also put trigger warnings in Takopi in addition to the one the staff already included as part of the episodes themselves

what?

This kind of episodes are anime at its best. I am proud of enjoying this.

>>281945247
Bowling is boring. It's useful only for a joke about the second strike

So when do we find out that Rina and Mai are sisters?
>Rina's dad had an affair and Mai was born.
>Rina's mom divorces when she learns about it.
>None of Mai's relatives wanted her because they all knew.

When will the girls get impregnated?

>>281949184
Yes, being a total stranger in a small tight-knit community is a great way to blend in.

>>281950190
I really like to that it doesn’t have tons of wink at the camera moment it still treats itself seriously.

>>281948807
>supposed to linger around
>never caught on camera
>almost 3 decades since camera phones hit the market
you might be more retarded than the show

WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON ANYMORE

>>281950190
>That's why, even though I don't particularly care about the whole family drama (if I'm being honest), I enjoyed the whole "let's have a bowling match to decide who kills themselves"
Same. This episode is definitely one of my favorites of the series so far.

>>281951605
i dont know about japan but in europe, traveling was common.
There where even practices where fresh journeyman got banned from their vilage for several years and until they could show written proof they came around

>>281951934
Met 5th sister.
Family secret revealed.
Convenient thunderstorm when the fate of the extra sister is dragged kicking and screaming into the limelight.

>>281951627
>>281950190
When the premise is this ridiculous they almost have to take it seriously. However I don't think this series will reach the heights of Akiba Maid War unless they really surprise me in the last few episode
Granted, gangster stories are inherently more kinographic than bowling.

Post the new OP comparisons.

Look at this MAN and her huge MAN body

>>281952221
And yet somehow this series is really well directed, one of the best of the season in that regard, and I'm watching a lot of shows this season.

>>281952424
Suguri's husband looks very big.

>>281948958
In the episode in which they built the bowling lane with the villagers. Nanase remarked that Sumomo was more respected than the "eldest son", Suguri.

>>281951356
No IPS in the Sengoku period.

>>281939781 (OP)
How many episode is this?

>>281952424
They were smart giving the girl with a man’s build a period scene.

>>281939781 (OP)
is this turkey?

>>281952922
In 2022, Turkey changed its official name in English to Republic of Türkiye

This show is completely retarded. I'm loving it. It reminds me of those old Gonzo series.

it's so peak

>>281952221
Akiba Maid War was able to masterfully combine comedic and serious moments.
That and this year's Apocalypse Hotel

>>281953300
Kino shots in this new OP

>>281952622
That makes sense, I guess I just didn't put 2 and 2 together.

>>281947970
genki JK power is...strong

there's always a second throw in bowling

Maybe Mai's parents dying fucked with her more than expected.

This anime is so good, you can call the plot absurd but the emotional writing of each episode is superb and invests me everytime.

>>281949722
She's holding Mai's ball as well, with what appears to be scorch marks. I'm not sure what to make of it.

>>281943894
It feels like Rina was supposed to have one easlier in the series but it got scrapped.

>>281944830
Sayuri once again proves that she's the best girl.

>>281954819
rating 6 is so unfair

>>281946872
>>281946896
>anzu struggling to lift nozomi's guitar
Cute. Those things are surprisingly heavy.

>>281946952
The reflection in Mai's eye in the next shot shows that it's Haru embracing her.

>>281950190
>even though I don't particularly care about the whole family drama (if I'm being honest)
It's because you're a dirty male.

>>281946974
Suguri could just silence the witnesses but she's too nice for her own good. She's swapping personalities with Sayuri.

SHE SAID THE THING

>>281954102
>Pink and Green have their chains held by their counterparts
>Blue gets restored
>Yellow gets her secrets covered up
>Purple gets help setting things up for another turkey

>>281947073
Genetics is funky like that. I knew a pair of twins where one was a guy and one was a girl. The girl was adorable but it wasn't to be.

>>281947220
How does hiding her even help? The guys in question know they're twins, do they just believe the father if he claims he killed one of them offscreen?

>>281947073
>>281955156
you must be joking

>>281947211
Still no cleavage but the boobs don't look obviously wrong this week.

>>281946952
Mai was melting in OP1 and saved in OP2 though

>>281947073
It is anime, like Ram and Rem from Rezero

>>281947242
I said they should have sent her to the kunoichi mountain summer camp.

>>281947267
Detective Nozomi

>>281947344
There is a single thought in that head.

>>281955368
she's thingkin about balls

>>281947444
Is this first season of YuGiOh

>>281955368
It’s honestly at the level of parody with it to the point where I wonder if she’s going to by the end have a breakdown about it

That was a pretty good episode, it rather got me emotionally honestly
The opening change me shit bricks

>>281947899
I can hear it

>>281947407
My hero

>>281947562
Being thrown onto the ground by Sayuri caused Mai's IQ to underflow. She's become so retarded that she's actually a genius now.

>>281948407
Akebi and Rina are suicidal for a different reason though

>>281947626
She needs a boyfriend to take care of it.

>tfw too low iq for OP symbolism
im sure its something very meaningful though

>>281947773

What's the story with this?

Sex with Suguri

>>281955675
mal users are retarded

>>281947893
Kino.

Imagine 20+ consecutive generations of women with their attitude.

>>281955675
mal hates kino original all girl cast sengoku time travel anime

>>281947917
>the storm is here but there are three episodes left
Surely it's way too early? It should have started coming in episode 11.

>>281955675
In fairness, Anilist hates it even more.

>>281948106
The turkeys are going back together this time. Natsume will probably want to hitch a ride so she can find Nanase's dad, causing the rest of the sisters to join. I don't know how Mai loses her ball but it apparently doesn't matter whose ball is being thrown when the lightning strikes.

Was the OP always changing or is it just this time?

>>281955809
>It should have started coming in episode 11.
TRUST
THE
PLAN

>>281949727
Everyone's going home together. Mai was wrong. The turkeys and the sengoku sisters are actually the ten pins being taken home by the ball.

>>281946872
>>281946896
Lolis handling things bigger than them is my favorite genre.

>>281951356
My dick can't time travel. I've been stuck in this bowling alley all night, waiting to take Sayuri to the love hotel.

I think it would be cool if the sengoku girls went to the future with them. They can stay as long as they want even and since it's time travel no time would have passed. They can just come to the future and hang out and bowl in a real bowling alley and use real toilets till there's another lighting storm.

>>281954102
Post more whore.

>>281954102
Suguri and Sayuri are standing very close to each other. Will the big girl steal Nozomi's girlhusband?

>>281956237
I hope they become the bullying enemy bowling team in S2.
>Hey pink, I bet your great-great-grandmother bowls better than you! Oh, wait!

>>281956237
The OP2 hints at it
The question is how many will go, how many will stay, and how many will return to Sengoku

>>281955069
>Purple gets help setting things up for another turkey
Natsume is going to bring Nanase's dad back to her.

>>281956077
Hamster banana.

>>281955443
She's had that same ball since before her parents died. The first episode shows that it's getting left behind, which might cause her to crack.

she win

>>281951091
Takopi wasn’t just an attempt

>>281955675
The Nicolive ranking has been very low for all but one of the episodes as well. On MAL, some of the most enjoyable anime are found between 6 and 7.

>>281955675
Bro

>>281947970
In case nobody noticed, she was talking to herself.

>>281956623
I was watching 2deep anime, so I noticed it. So obvious

>>281956550
How low was Genkidol

>>281955675
I still don't know why people take MAL seriously when the site allows its users to score shows that haven't even finished airing yet. Who gives a fuck.

>I went out and had fun
What fun? What does it mean?

I have replayed the new op so many times just to jam. I love turkey so much

>>281956775
Didn't she say she met someone in the last episode? Hence, people theorized she was pregnant.

>>281956775
She went on the hunt for masculine clitorises

>>281956775
It means she went out bowling and thinks she is being punished for enjoying living. What else could possibly be considered fun besides bowling?

>>281947073
>how the fuck can they be twins if one is pink and one is blue

I have 3 mal accounts with one ip
in my opinion, this says a lot about the rating site

>>281956820
Guess she was talking about meeting Mai and going out to bowl
I thought that
I would have assumed that she was talking about something that happened before the girls came but i guess not

>>281956787
Maybe they'll go to the future together

>>281947106
Their mother died giving birth to the youngest sister

>>281956820
>>281956775
The idea is that she thought she shouldn't have fun. Superstition again

They had that in the modern day as well, except they wrote the fortunes in a black book.

>>281947073
I have seen legit twins that look completely different from each other, you should be focusing on the 5 sisters having a different hair color each...

>>281958409
it's just stylized black and brown hair

>>281957002
Does Mai know how babies are made?

>>281955926
>>281956237
Season 2 will be the sengoku girls in the future, or at least it would have been if the Japanese had better taste and the ratings were higher.

wow that was bad and good at the same time

It was bad that everyone wanted to kill themselves but it was good that they figured things out over a game of bowling.

Mai is so hilariously positive.

I forgot to ask, when they kept saying “I’ll be your second” when bowling were they using the same term you use for seppuku?

>>281960078
Apparently it's a different term. Someone asked about it earlier.

>>281960117
Damn, that could have been kino.

Who care about scores. What about audience numbers? This anime is perfect for hate watching for people that makes anime part of their identities.

>>281960024
That's just natural for pinks.

Next episode:
Everyone goes to future
Bowling Club girls disappear one by one
Sengoku girls realize they need to go back
Leave letter for Mai when she reappears

>>281948055
>fuck it, let's go bowling

>>281961105
Oh, that could work. Mai’s ball ends up in the past because the sengoku sisters used it to fix the timeline.

>>281950105
>Hence, the accusing noble woman in Marie’s lai, now pregnant with her own twins, seeks to protect herself and the reputation of her offspring. First she considers killing one of her daughters – a reflection of how exposure was a response to unwanted births during this period
>WE WUZ feudal retards that were better than those other feudal retards!!!!!

I was grinning like a retard during the bowling match, and I actually felt Mai's speech, although that may be because I'm tipsy. What a stupid, enjoyable and FUN episode.

>>281953316
In my opinion AMW is leagues above ApoHotel. I really liked the latter, but I'm not the biggest fan of it either.

>>281956623
Maaaaaybe. The way they were framing her speech made me think so too.

This show has way too much soul and effort for such a retarded premise.

>>281947970
I kneel.
>>281956623
Obviously. Her positivism is totally false from the get-go. She solely does it in order to maintain that facade, deep down she knows she's just lying to herself over and over and trying to push through a heavy depression with false positive energy. That's been her character ever since the start of the series.

Nice five-string guitar, LOSER.

>>281947073
They're colour-coded for viewer convenience.

>>281947355
Falling down this cliff doesn't even kill you. They tested it before.

>>281947621
In some ways, Rina is even more retarded than Mai.

>>281947645
Bass players are all bitches.

This is gonna be 2 cour right? You're all witnessing the beginning of one of the greatest anime of the decade. After episode 13 this show is going to shoot up on every anime ranking and everyone's gonna be talking about it. The studio knows they're working with gold. There's no way they'd pour so much love into the show if it was really as retarded as it seems on the surface. We're on the precipice of history in the making gentlemen.

>>281962850
I was here from the first throw.

>>281963145
You can't stop me.

>>281963158
>Come on Anon, let's play a round before you kill yourself!

This show is awesome. I want to go bowling, I wish it was a real sport.

>>281956042
>The turkeys and the sengoku sisters are actually the ten pins being taken home by the ball.

lovely rejoinder to Rina's arc

>>281964186
Nanase is turning out to be a pretty iconic character with that hairstyle and glasses.

Words that no one has ever said.

>>281948407
There are just so many better solutions available. The village can keep a secret, their lord is a woman. Raise the other sister as a boy too, or have the blacksmith adopt her and change her hair, or give the toadie messengers the bribe they were clearly fishing for, or have the boys dress as bandits and take them out as they leave, or send her with her already wandering sister so they can find her a place to live with a new identity. All of this was available before they met time travelers, even.

They can make it in a lab and have some math about how it might work in nature. It's like that new 9th planet they haven't found yet. It fits other evidence, but there's not yet direct evidence, and there's no hurry.

>>281947137
People still believe in all sorts of bullshit.
People still genuinely believe the blank slate theory, and that all that determines a person's behavior / personality is how they were raised and it's zero to due with genetics.
I'll give "twins are bad" a cultural pass until the people of this age stop acting retarded as well.

always remember: the real pick-up was inside you, all along.

>>281956373
Only the older girls can go, since they younger ones will be noticeably taller if they stay even a year. And they'd better send someone to learn all they can to bring back.

>>281964829
We've learned a lot by separating twins and raising them differently.

>>281943466
>>281944520
The past girls are also replacing the symbols in the OP. For example, Mai had fetters around her ankles chained to her bowling ball, but now she's chained to Sumomo.

>>281947106
>>281947137
I think this was an actual thing in the Sengoku era since it was the same in Sengoku Youko.

>>281947970
>>281948055
>saves the day with bowling
How does this genius retard keep making me respect her more and more?

>>281952221
I already like this way more than Akiba Maid War

>>281964186
Why does this artist keep drawing weird shit?

Holy shit why is this show so good? Something like this should have no right being this good.

>>281959944
I know right?
Turkey is mediocre but a good kind of mediocre

Suguri with longer hair.

>>281965860
Especially after traveling through time with magic.

Since it's raining now, we'll probably be getting this next episode

>>281965860
Maybe his family shouldn't have been so ugly.

>>281965920
And don't forget about this as well

>>281962850
It's listed as 12 episodes everywhere I checked but knowing this show, I wouldn't be shocked if it surprises us with another cour.

>>281965886
Unf, powerful

>>281965963
What would a second cour be? The Sengoku girls trying out life in modern day?

>>281965366
Oh hell no, Akiba Maid War is fucking genius writing with great violent animation.
Turkey is just fucking dumb with good moments

>>281962850
Based and correct Reinhard poster.

>>281965963
In bowling, there's always a second cour

Okay fine I'll give it another go. Just tell me, from which episode does the blue haired girl stop being such an insufferable bitch?

A turkey is three strikes in a row, so we are getting three seasons.

>>281966047
>In bowling, there's always a second cour
If they pull this off, it will be AOTD.

>>281959557
when a man and a woman hit a strike together, a baby pops out of the ball return system

>>281964829
Honestly I feel like the blank slate theory has been more popular lately where people don’t want to blame anyone for doing anything bad and it’s all the parents fault that the 20 year old is evil.

>>281954555
She did ask if it is even bad to be erased from the timeline

>>281964905
It will be Sumomo and Akebi since their personal plotlines are still unresolved. It also mirrors how the first arc is Mai x Rina.
They will have to decide who to return to Sengoku for the marriage, becoming snake eyes for Mai and Rina to solve.

>>281966213
>it’s all the parents fault that the 20 year old is evil
Much of your future trajectory comes from how your family treats you in the first 2 years of life in particular, so it's not unfounded.

Sumomo is injured in OP2 so she is unmarriageable
Rina will accompany Akebi back to Sengoku since she won't be missed

Which one's pregnant?

>>281966346
All of them. I gave my best.

If this anime is popular, the Chinese would have leaked the ending already

This is legitimately and unironically one of my AOTS, and this is a strong season

>Sengoku girls go to the future but the future girls stay in the past
Give me them time paradogs, shoot it into my veins

>they go back to the future
>"eh? bowlingu? what's that?"
>teaching the past about bowling made it disappear in the future

>>281967138
>Entire Chikuma City disappears

>>281965235
I think Sumomo's just holding the ball, allowing her to move on from her parents' deaths. Although she seemed to have done that before the time travel?

>>281965935
inb4 the bowling ball takes half of somebody

>>281965935
I can't wait for Suguri and Sayuri to team up and slaughter the fortune teller's goons.

>>281966265
She wasn't afraid of that cliff edge either, instead standing away from the group and looking over it.

>>281966340
A minor head injury isn't a deal breaker but Sumomo is used goods. That's why she can't get married.

>>281967138
Ten pin bowling wasn't invented in Japan, so the sengoku alley being consumed by fire won't erase the sport from the future.

>ED is by yanaginagi
Kino

This cour will end on a S2 announcement, which will be about them overshooting their return time slip and ending up in a dystopian scifi future where bowling has been outlawed thanks to their timeline meddling. Together with the Sengoku sisters who came along for the ride, the girls must fight the oppressive government and restore the true timeline!

Source: it was revealed to me in a dream

Time travel works when lightning... >!STRIKES???! <

>>281966634
Would be kino but the opening already spoiled that Mai goes back at least

>>281967351
holy BUDGET

>>281967921
>Turkey!: TIME to STRIKE
Genius.

>>281968475
>lightning strikes when they start getting strikes

>>281949727
Rina and Akebi should swap places with Rina staying and Akebi going to the future in her place. It would be too difficult to sneak Akebi into Japanese society otherwise without a birth certificate and family registry documents.

This show is so dull. Anons started hyping it up because of the initial twist but the character drama has been mediocre and none of it feels tangible, since it's always looming in the background but nothing to give it effect has occurred up to this point. Everything that's happened in this show is either happening passively in the background or already happened, aside from the characters coming to terms with their own difficulties which is done as lazily as possible except maybe Rina, since they're trying to cram it all into a single episode. It wouldn't come as any surprise if the theories posted in this thread happen verbatim, though given that the anime has managed to undersell at every turn, even that's a stretch. Now I can see why other anons were complaining that it couldn't be a straight CGDCT bowling anime.

>>281969048
Take her out in the mountains and help her get settled. People still give birth at home out there. The kids are residents and aren't made to leave even as adults. Same with Appalachia.

Compromise solution: Akebi lives, Sumomo lives, Rina dies.

>>281947242
Akebi doesn't know how good she has it. That would be a $5k per month apartment in LA or NYC.

>>281969236
No internet, no plumbing.

>>281969048
I dont think Rina looks like Akebi looks like Sumomo doesn't look like Mai

>>281969298
They don't use plumbing in san francisco anyway

>>281969201
>pass Akebi off as a feral child raised by wolves or hobos
Living in the mountains would suck but that might actually work as a cover story to explain her strange speaking patterns and complete lack of knowledge of modern society. Then she would be eligible for public assistance/job training and be given identity documents.

They aren't going to send Akebi to the future, if that happens it means the problem of the Sumono having to marry Washio wasn't solved. And if the problem of Sumomo having to marry Washio is solved then it would more than likely mean the issue regarding Akebi is too.

>>281969425
Split the guy's head with a bowling ball, problem solved

>>281969538
Gotta get all the way into his castle, get a clear shot, and get away. A real ninja mission.

>>281969581
they just have to do with during a lightning storm, bowl the ball into his castle past the guards through the front door, have it bounce off the walls till it reaches him, the lighting will strike where the ball is and kill him or send him to the future

Are the people who expect the girls to go back to the future in the next episode the same people who expected Suguri to strike down the girls last week?

>>281969581
He's coming to the village next week.

>>281970210
Not if bandits get him. Got a few bandit rags, surely. They're not rich enough not to loot the corpses.

Love Lab was a once-in-a-lifetime event, lightning doesn't strike twice

>281970633
fuck off

>you're worried about your whole family getting slaughtered?
>just be happy and have fun!

>>281970630
when is this version being upped to youtube in full, it sounds way better

>>281969067
The only episode I liked was 6 where they had to comes to terms with the fact your modern day idealism doesn't hold up in the sengoku era - you will get fucking murdered if you don't kill first. I feel like the character moments really worked there.
But yeah other than that it's been a complete disappointment.

>>281970722
Your brain on bowling.

>>281970722
This is said by a girl who killed two dudes her first day in the sengoku period

If Anzu is coming to future, will she play with Nyochio? She was playing with a cat in Sengoku and some people consider Nyochio a cat.

New theory: Haru is an older Akebi that got lost in the recent past

>>281970999
BOWRINGU?

>>281966017
This but the other way around

Japanese seem to like this episode? Niconico just streamed it so what is the score this time?

>>281970771
>show isn't good unless it's fueling and justifying your killing fantasies
Let me guess, you open carry and spend every waking moment, praying, waiting, and preparing for a dirty brown to jump out of the bushes and give you a chance to gun them down. And if you don't it's only because you live in an area where you can't.

>>281971189
>Haru is red coded
Or maybe it is Sumomo? Does anyone know the new OP shot of Sumomo standing in front of a train station is from present day or recent past? The station name is written on a wooden plaque in calligraphy so it feels old. But maybe that is just rural Japan.

>>281971212
this is some prime schizobabble

>>281971212
What a retarded post.

Boring Mai's holes.

Why hasn't Suguri fucked his(female) harem yet? They're all prime concubines.

>>281971501
Does it even have a bowling alley?

>>281971372
Nowhere near as retarded as a post saying that the only good thing about this show thus far is its moment of killing fantasy fuel. If you tell me the only thing in 9 episodes you like is the part when people kill in self defense then how am I wrong if I assume that killing in self defense is something predominately on your mind? It sure isn't bowling

In a parallel timeline the 1st of episode of Turkey is stretched into what its entire season is about, and Utagoe Mille-Feuille is about 5 girls time traveling back to teach Sengoku girls a capella.

>>281971534
>no plans for a Round One in the works
grim

>>281971534
No. Not a single one. You have to travel to the next city to play the sport that Turkey revolves around.

>>281970736
I am definitely buying that CD, but BD will depend on the last episodes plus I already locked on WataNare BD this season

>>281972298
Yet it has a sengoku "castle" that the sisters' home is based on...

Would you find it hard to believe that one of the sisters is Belldandy?

>>281972374
She's 17 so not really

bowling is fucking boring. I'll never understand why normalfags like it

>>281970630
Why are they hyping up shit seiyuu?

>>281971501
It shall be a stop on my Grand Tour!

>>281973092
Throwing shit at stuff is as primal as it gets anon

>>281973092
it requires 0 athletic ability and is more of a social activity than a sport

9 episodes in they still haven't eaten any turkey

The new OP had even more blood-covered loli Mai engulfed in flames, they're doubling down on this imagery. Is she actually lying about the way her parents died for some reason, did she accidentally start a fatal fire by bowling in the house or something?

>>281975016
I think she's hiding the reason her relatives sent her to the orphanage.

that was fun

>>281975016
Mai is an orphan from the sengoku period. She only survived because she did something bowling related during the incident in which her parents were killed.

>>281976504
>Mai and Sumomo were switched at birth
What a TWISTyvwpg

>>281975016
>3 year old loli mai lining up lit candles like bowling pins, scores a strike scattering them everywhere which then burns the house down
calling it now

>>281971270
>Does anyone know the new OP shot of Sumomo standing in front of a train station is from present day or recent past?
It's the same station that Mai was at in the beginning of episode 1, in the flashforward

>>281971384
Rolling balls into Mai's gutter!

Bowring

My honest reaction

>>281977297
that's actually kino. I'd kneel

>>281980464
She's not used to being able to see the pins.

why doesnt twin just marry ikeman sis? seal 2 lies with a simple deal.

I need Big Lebowski Turkey crossover fanart.

>>281962850
We need a second throw, a Turkey if you would.

>>281983423
Mai treats bowling balls like women

>>281969425
blondie wants the ancient D just make her marry

Do lesbians make better bowlers because they're used to fingering holes?

>>281983813
>a Turkey

>>281983423
>Shut the fuck up, Nanase

>>281984053
Two in the pink, one in the stick is the standard bowling grip after all.

>>281984053
>>281984888
Just look at this. It's not a coincidence.

>>281983336
It's wrong to marry your sister!

>>281986493
No it’s not don’t let big NTR fool you!

>>281985077
The pink and the stink are much closer though, the bowling grip you depicted is nowhere close to achieving the intended goal. you'd have to close down to something resembling the mandible claw and risk a cramp,.or you can just bend your ring finger and turn your hand sideways.

>>281983152
Bowler girls have nice thighs.

>>281988422

>>281989011
Oh god fuck off asshole. We don't need you fucking up this thread like you did with the yuri rape thread

>>281965920
Pretend son and big girl are missing. What did they mean by this?

bowling?

>>281989203
They're doing a bit of murder together.

>>281989203
Probably setting the pins.

>>281989209
who needs a trebuchet or a catapult when you just need one japanese high school girl to toss boulders fast enough to down an adult man?

This series is fucking dumb but it's a rare case of it getting better the further you go

>>281989602
I don't know, Rina's episode was really good. Waiting on it to top that.

>>281989602
Premise might be silly but character writing is great

>>281989209
The most powerful stone putters on Earth today couldn't have thrown/skipped that rock so far and accurately. In the Sengoku era Sayuri is probably the strongest person on the planet.

this is so far for what counts as a silly premise in anime are people joking

A classic

Can someone post the webm of her bowling away the soldiers please?

>>281989209
For some reason I could feel his pain when the ball hit him. They should have added a don't do this at home caption.

How do you like our song, anon?

>>281998579
>>281962416

>>281999573
Better than the 1st OP

>>281999573
It’s pretty good but I prefer the turkey version. I wonder if there’ll be a third song with both groups.

>>281956599
They didn't even get to Suguri's episode

The bookstore that got torn down and revealed their ball was probably owned by whichever sengoku sister was left in modern times and died of old age

>>282001451
Natsume seems to like reading and writing so, if the bookstore is connected to one of the sisters, it’ll be her.

They will go back to the future next episode and it will have changed to be dystopia where capital punishments death matches are decided by bowling match/

>>281999573
wait are all the VAs really like 70 years old or something lmao

>>282001962
They got sengoku era VAs for authenticity.

>>282001962
No, the JK's VAs are 20 to 30 yo

>>282002020
They are actually future version of these >>282002028
They even look similar

>>281984053
No, but they make better banjo players.

>>281951203
And that's why you need to keep on living. To watch more kino anime like this.

>>281991191

>>281999573
it was kino

>>282001962

Rude, fuck you.

>>282001962
The VAs for the sengoku sisters are all in their early 60s.

>>282004296
They are 17yrs old anon stop being rude for once.

It's time to go.
