Flip Flappers is already nine years old! Where does the time go...

>>282942103 (OP)
Too old for Papika

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNpCpTspyK4
tnx im rewatching this video right now

How did a single cour show about little gay girls going on magical adventures produce such an enduring and dedicated fanbase?

Cocona showering was one of the most important anime scenes in the last 10 years.

I wish every season had an original this good.

I should rewatch

>>282943690
There's an opportunity today >>282942646

>>282942103 (OP)
>psh anon stop joking around flip flappers only came out like a year or two ago
>check when it came out
Sweet jesus...

>>282942723
There's that entire episode about how Cocona is not gay.

>>282944086
holy crap

>>282944360
I don't remember that, I just remember the homosexual tension between literally every female character being out of this world.

Low energy thread.

Yayacuck.

>>282945748
tkmiz has good tastes, I've seen a lot of fanart from him or her of stuff I like. That episode and UraPi come to mind.

It's Yaya's year

Can never replicate the magic of watching it as it aired and not knowing what was going on
The last few eps killed the magic so bad it's not even good for a rewatch

I like the last episodes and Salt is my favorite character.

>>282947452
Which Yaya?

>>282947714
He's the coolest

>>282949962
Oh my lord

>>282942103 (OP)
To the anon hosting the stream, where did you get the copy of Bousei no Volicia that you're streaming right now from? I can't find any on nyaa.

>>282950556
Nevermind I'm mega retarded, it's on YouTube with English subs.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3k-r8bnW0Qg

>>282950595
That's where I got it, yes. I ripped it from Youtube so I could stylize the subs a little. Didn't have time for anything fancy.

>>282942723
>>282944360
>bath and sleep naked with your dead friend's daughter while going on interdimensional adventures
Seems 50/50 to me.
>>282947429
I don't think I've seen a single piece of tkmiz fanart for K-ON. That's a series I'd think he would have done a lot for but it's conspicuously missing.

>>282942103 (OP)
This was too high iq for me

>>282951449
FlipFlappers really is just Serial Experiments Lain for smart people.

Missed last year due to a poorly timed vacation, and leaving for a hockey game soon. I always forget and end up with flip flapping withdrawals. ;_;

>>282951745

>browse catalog

Cruel twist of fate

I'm so happy to watch Flip Flappers with all of you!

BOUKEN

>55 pages

I was in Japan earlier this year and stumbled upon the Flip Flappers complete BD set in some random store in Nakanao Broadway and I just had to get it since this is one of my favorite series. It was super expensive, but totally worth it. I love the little art books that comes with each volume.

>>282952471
Saving this

>>282947714
He was the coolest guy.

>>282953902
they all look really nice

>>282942103 (OP)
Kino animu, even the later half.

>>282942723
>little gay girls
ew pedotroon confirmed

>>282944360
Wut? nigga are you stupid or just retarded?
Jesus how the fuck do you faggots have such terrible takes on the reg.

I finally remembered this stream this year but now I have completely lost the link

>>282954703
it's at the same place
>>282942646

>>282951745
I always love seeing your art anon. This one feels pure illusion-y!

Girlish number > Flip flappers

>>282955647
nop

Someone have a stitch of "hell"?

I still fucking love the ED

I missed half of the stream due to work again

>>282955647
Why does she wear the egg?

Six more years and I won't want to fuck it anymore!

>>282958036
>>282957977
PPK and CCN owe YYK sex.

At least every once in a while.

I want to flip their flaps if you catch my drift.

Nyunyu is so fucking lewd holy shitto

I-I thought the stream was tomorrow…

>>282958153
Papika will arrange it for Cocona's birthday.

>>282958556
You are in time for the finale!

>>282958824
No, I’m not, I’m at work…

>>282958835
It's not too late to quit your job.

I like nyunyu

I was looking away from my screen when yayaka did the "I'm gonna give it to you straight" line and lookd back to a GOOD JOB TL lines, did nks change something?

>>282947572
>The last few eps killed the magic so bad it's not even good for a rewatch
as someone who watched it for the first time this year I don't get this sentiment

>>282959238
>>282958036

its one of the worth screenplay in anime I've seen
thing happens, then un unrelated thing happens repeat

no stakes
its one of those "they put all this effort into the visuals for THIS PLOT?!?" Shows

>>282959638
>stakes
How do recognize the yapping of a retard.

>>282959073
Yayaka consents

it was a pleasure fellow flapers

this year was like 10 viewers less than last

See you all next year for the big 10. Thanks again for the flappingu

>>282957721
I wonder why she has her hand between her legs in one of these...

>>282960481
I liked the preshow, it was a nice discovery

>>282957721
>Papika is served a scrap
>Cocona is served a ton of carrots

>>282959593
Oh literally just scroll up, apologies.
That's pretty fuckign great lol

Was it yuri?

But who was Iro?

see you next year fellow feet fappers

>>282960769
I only fap to their immature chests, bellies, and butts like a sane person.

>>282948059
And it was Yayana! No love for Yayayo...

Time Flop? Nah, more like time to flip flap.

This show, especially the first 2/3, is the most "This show was literally made for me" show there has ever been. Why can't more shows have cute girls go on adventures together and fall in love because of them?

see you next year flappers

>>282962150
for me a big "this was made for me" part of it is the surrealism. It's phenomenal and its hard to find stuff like it. Wonder Egg might be close, I still need to give it a try. I've seen a chart floating around in flifla threads of "wabi sabi" anime that I keep meaning to save that i feel like strikes in that vein somewhat.

It's always over too soon.

>>282963902
I blink and we're already starting the last episode:( it's so fucked up

Official art.

>>282950712
>>282945772
Illusion Papika straight up asked her if romance or sex was an option, and she said no.

>>282952471
i read this... again creators really done MASSIVE job referencing THAT amount of material
10/10 timeless masterpiece

>>282955518
>>282951772
thanks

One day you will able to enjoy my drawings in a visual novel, just wait a few years, things are going smoothly
here's a little sneak peek

see you next stream everyone

>>282966520
Her reasoning being that slutpika isn't the real papika, implying she would actually have sex with the real one. Bicurious at the very least. Will almost certainly have an experimental gay phase in her teenage years.

>>282967661
That seems like a stretch. The whole illusion existed for her to examine her own feelings for the real Papika.

>>282967749
The fact that she even sees her as a succubus in the first place implies temptation. The fact that she sees her as dateable boys implies romantic viability. I don't get why you're so desperate to erase the gayness from what is, in all regards, from beginning to end, a blatantly gay anime.

Feels like there's unlimited potential for the whole "protagonists hop from fantasy world to fantasy world and go on adventures" concept. Makes you wonder why there isn't an anime like that every season

>>282968400
It takes a lot of creativity to come up with interesting enough places and to be able to establish them within a short time.
Most people don't even manage one original isekai world.

>>282960675
no kiss no yuri, they are just good friends

more than friends
less than lovers

>>282953902
That was at Lashinbang Nakano AV specialty. It sat there for quite some time. I already own a different version of it but I saw it there several times before it disappeared one day.

>>282942103 (OP)
is this show flopping proof that creativity does not always sell?

>>282969077
>is this show flopping proof that creativity does not always sell?

-or because the show was schizophrenic dogshit and felt my soul screaming in agony the entire time. People still care about a coherent plot.

>>282970042
Wrong

>>282969033
That might have been me who bought it. I don't remember the store specifically, but my bank statement does show a Lashinbang Nakano around that price. I just remember the store being hidden away somewhere on the third or fourth floor.

Epic

I need to watch the school swimsuit episode again very carefully.

>>282971447
>that one frame

You will never be in Welwitschia's harem.
Why even live?

>>282971510
That episode was very erotic

Ah man I missed it, was busy with a family thing last night. Hope you had fun anons, putting it in my calendar for next year.
>>282963005
This one?

I'm happy that something like Flip Flappers even exists. Even if it wasn't successful

>>282974533
same, it's a great watch by itself and there is many kino episode during a watchalong

>>282968007
Oh, you're that faggot. Stick to your own kind.

>>282971381
There's a whole genre of JAVs about women wearing masks and going berserk, but sexually. I keep meaning to make some sample webms to bother zelda fans.

Thread is so low energy compared to last year's or two years ago.

>>282979042
All the activity was in the chat.

>>282979150
Before and after the stream.

>>282980887
lewd

>>282977082
>>282980736
>>282981658
are they from the BD ?

>>282973883
That's the spice, thanks anon.

>>282966520
Because she wasn't the real papika. Did you watch the goddamned show???
>>282978147
Seems like this anon got btfo lmfao

>join stream like I do every years
>got my snacks and stuff
>get into it and clap along with the crowd
>comes up to final episodes, start getting sleepy, but still manage to follow since I've seen it all already
>go to bed
>brain still flip-flapping
>dream up several episodes' worth of material involving an MSpaint-themed illusion
>wake up
>can't remember what parts of the ending were real and which were my dream
see you next year I guess

>>282982211
Stitched from video.

>>282982931
The MSpaint illusion was real.

>>282983152
I know, I drew it

>>282983089
they are bery naisu, thanks anon

>>282978147
Actual schizo reply

>>282959326
the first 3/4ths of the series are just papika and cocona doing weird cool episodic shit and then suddenly we introduce several new characters eating up screen time when we're also giving out literally all of the lore, it just feels very busy and different from what made you watch the series till this point

>>282970042
The plot is definitely the weakest part of the show. Flip Flappers is all art and concept, with no coherent story in which to frame it all. I remember on my first watch through being disturbed by the mad pacing and bizarre plot turns of the first three episode. If the show wasn't so aesthetically excellent I don't think I would have stuck with it.

>>282986258
pantsu

>>282986272
The loli pantsu also help elevate it

>>282986258

>>282986258
Plot is for plebs.
Not a single piece of literature (visual or otherwise) has ever become a classic because of its formal structure.
Universal themes, unique delivery and cultural relevance are the only factors that matter.
You may not have understood Flip Flappers on your first watch, but you fapped and you came and you rewatched it and you're still taking about it years later and that's all that matters.

>>282968400
>Feels like there's unlimited potential for the whole "protagonists hop from fantasy world to fantasy world and go on adventures" concept. Makes you wonder why there isn't an anime like that every season
That's literally Magical Shopping Arcade both of which is basically like an strange version of Alice in Wonderland if you want to get technical. Like the other anon said, takes too much creativity to come up with interesting enough places not to mention animation.

>>282984819
The lore was hinted at pretty much from the beginning, and people on here were actively digging into it from the first episode. When the plot actually kicked in it was satisfying to get resolutions to all of the mysteries that had been going on in the background the whole time. Still sad that the sodium vapor lamps turned out to be nothing.

damn, I forgot

>>282990431
then this is a good opportunity to finally add it to a calendar so you never miss it

>>282990431
So it goes.

>>282969077
Style over substance is rarely if every popular amongst the masses.

>>282942723

Oh shit! I’ll see if this vidya link works in vr

>>282952471
>tfw your artwork gets used by /a/non as the last page of THE MANIFESTO
Feels so good mang. Dai dai daisuki

I vaguely remember it was one of the animator themselves that went here and then we did a collage of some sort(?)
Does anyone else have the FULL COLLAGE of ally the anon artworks sent for the creators of FlipFlappers?

>>282942103 (OP)
>missed the stream
fug

Flip Flappers will always have a special place in my heart.

>>282951631
made for hotdogging

I just finished rewatching this. Last time I saw it was when it was airing. Still holds up.
