Will They do Yuri again in the future show?

>>23531066 (OP)
Pretty sure not. I think we're about to go beck to shows with full male cast and female are only bridge bunnies.

>>23531066 (OP)
>again
There was a first time?

>>23531066 (OP)
>Do a show with "yuri" (not real yuri btw)
>Nearly kill the franchise

>Do a show with a hetero couple straight afterwards
>Franchise becomes the most profitable it's ever been

>>23531080
WFMfags think their "couple" was actual yuri.

>>23531066 (OP)
They didn't even do a proper yuri in this. Mio didn't really interact much with Suletta, especially in s2. Most of Suletta's interactions were with the earth kiddos. If anything, I find that the one thing this show did well was showing Suletta making friends.

>>23531080
This. Those cowards didnt even have the guts to go full yuri.

>>23531073
I like when the protagonist is a dude and the cast is mostly male, but there is at least one girl in the group that can pilots a Gundam "02".

>>23531066 (OP)
>When they greenlight a Yuri Show, but then Bandai themselves intervene to delegitimize it.

Can someone explain the point to me?
Did Bandai not understand what Okouchi was doing?

>>23531081
>>Nearly kill the franchise
Bro, during G-Witch the franchise was the most profitable it ever was, then it grew even more during GQuuuuuuX. If there's anything we can learn about this, it's that female main characters sell.

>>23531104
Machu sells.
Not Suletta.

>>23531066 (OP)
Not any time soon, given how hesitant they were to commit to it. They might do female protag again but it will be more like gquux than witch.
>>23531096
>Can someone explain the point to me?
The only thing I can guess is they disliked the audience it brought in and changed their mind at the last minute. .

>>23531096
>>23531110
We don't know, what going on behind the scene But It's look like Bandai expect Yuri Bait than actual Yuri.

i don't even care about yuri but holy shit g witch had such a shit yuri romance. im not a hater i gobble up madoka's romance

>>23531198
Madoka and Homura are a standard?

>>23531202
are they not?

>>23531207
I don't know, i thought they were sisters in arms, like Naruto and Sasuke.

I'm not familiar with the genre, does most yuri go out of its way to create circumstances that keep the love interests at arms length for 80% of the story?

>>23531066 (OP)
Will OP stop being such a massive faggot?

>>23531066 (OP)
Hopefully, suletta and miorine where cute

>>23531233
Narusasu is way gayer than Madohomu

>>23531541
Delusional fujo talking about 2 married men with a wife

>>23531066 (OP)
And risk attracting those goddamm freaks from Twitter like last time? He'll no.

>>23531066 (OP)
I don't care if it's yuri or not I just don't want another overly shy pathetic little wubby. Give people a giga stacy.

>>23531081
Extremely high level mental gymnastics on display.

>>23531081
>gwitch haters are now completely delusional
lmao even

>>23533772
The crash out from them on twitter when they decanonize the lesbian relationship was hilarious. Out here threatening and praying for Bandai to be bankrupt.

>>23531066 (OP)
Thankfully not.

>>23538090
>lesbians are cute and make me hard whats the worst that could happen?
bandai learnt and important lesson about how fucked the west is that day

>>23538619
The amount of freaks over there is insane. Remember watching itsagundam and the amount of death threats and people saying "gay rep" was fucking high. Some of them didnt even watch the show or any other mecha.


All they wanted was to sell model kits and they ended getting a bunch of mentally retarded individuals.

>>23531066 (OP)
Wouldn't surprise me if they do it again but it will probably be more baity and less straightforward than having 2 girls be engaged to eachother.

>>23531143
Japan is a conservative country when it comes to those things and Bandai was hoping to use the "they are just good friends" excuse to shield them from backlash, but I don't think they anticipated how the west would react to the bait-and-switch, which is what most people were actually upset over, since it comes across as insincere.

Japanese media has been using the "they are just really close friends" excuse for a long time, and I've read it's a popular cover story for actual gay couples in Japan too.

>>23542286
it's just a really popular coverup in general

that said was there even any conservative backlash at all? I recall there being a few news articles about the sex in seed and the main characters performing execution-style shooting in an early episode of IBO, but they weren't actual uproar, just the typical parents and old people being in a huff about it

>>23542286
Japan as a whole doesn't really care about yuri because they see it as just a phase. They see it as something girls do in the absence of men or as an experimental phase before they eventually settle down.

>>23542344
maybe bandai was afraid of pearl clutching japanese parents thinking that buying their son a gunpla would make him catch the gay

>>23542407
Those don't exist. If anything the soccer mom archetype in japan works the other way around with the women's organization moms upset little takeshi isn't gay. They are basically twitterfags.

>>23531066 (OP)
I could see it. Three female protagonists in a row might be pushing it, though.

>>23531143
Bandai's pretty dumb, then. I don't know how you can take G-Witch as anything but yuri unless you really don't want to.

>>23542648
>If anything the soccer mom archetype in japan works the other way around with the women's organization moms upset little takeshi isn't gay. They are basically twitterfags.
No, you're just delusional and projecting.

>>23542779

The franchise had record sales both times they did a FeMC, that should be enough incentive for Banrise to keep doing them.

>>23542804
They were different audiences though. GWitch was a hit with middle-aged men with terrible personal hygiene while GQuuuuux was a hit with young people, especially women

>>23542801
I'm not, because I've paid attention to how japan's regulations have changed over the past 25-30 years. Tell me anon, have you seen the current school swimsuits japan uses? And if you have answer me this, who do you think pushed for them? And what sort of ideology do they have? That's just one example. They are also behind pushing for harsher regulations on what sorts of anime can be sold.

>everyone itt only caring about sale numbers
A bunch of Corpo sellouts, all of you.
Of course FemMC sells. Hell they could probably come up with some bullshit Lab made soulless "Waifu", mixing Asuka and 02. And it'd sell a ton, normalfaggots and phillistine pig Otakus would eat it up.
But it'd be shit, garbage, an attack on art itself (the same way Witch and Gcucks are).

>>23542826
>GQuuuuux was a hit with young people, especially women
>he actually believes this

>>23542845
You're a schizo who thinks moms want their sons to be gay because you suffer from severe paranoia and mental illness, likely caused by hanging around /pol/-adjacent places too much.

>>23542891
Whatever floats your boat anon, I'm just telling it like it is. But hey, if you want to pretend otherwise that's cool.
>muh /pol/
Try not to jump at shadows so much though. Not everyone who says something that shakes your worldview is your boogieman.

>>23542882
GQX was for everyone. It got way bigger in Japan than Gwitch

>>23542950
>media coverage is always positive and always = merch sales and viewer retention!
retard moment

>>23543390
bandai's sales figures for their shareholder reports speak for themselves. They saw a big increase after twitch and a really massive increase after gquuuuuux

>>23531066 (OP)
Not this time. I tend to prefer straight ships and leave homo ships as sideshows. Look at IBO, the homo ships being sideshows is fine, but the MC is straight. And yes, that includes yaoi pairings, not just yuri pairs.

>>23531066 (OP)
I just it to be good and not do the bare minimum of "They're a couple" but have like no chemistry.

>>23531081
WFM was dog shit but they made hella money out of it

>>23542845
>Tell me anon, have you seen the current school swimsuits japan uses?

Why don't you have a seat right the fuck over there?

>>23542942

The funniest part of these mid-ass shitters is their delusions of grandeur.

>>23542845
>Tell me anon, have you seen the current school swimsuits japan uses?
Have YOU? I hope you aren't taking a marketing pamphlet from a specific company people keep posting in 4chan as some kind of authoritative source, when it's just marketing their product.

I mean, those loose shorts/shirts exist and were adopted by some schools, but standard swimsuits also still are used in many others. This definitely isn't something similar to how bloomers were quickly phased out in the 90s.

>>23542845
VERY sus post

>>23542845
Youre a pedophile

>>23542950
Proof?
Anything to back up your claims?

>>23542891
>moms want their sons to be gay
This is something that happens.

>>23542950
GQuuuuuuX had style but I can't exactly argue it's better than GWitch if only because the narrative was way too stuffed for a one cour and it led to things being kind of a mess. GWitch wasn't perfect but at least it had some time to pace things out and only really started to feel rushed at the end of the second cour. Also how the fuck is GQuuuuuX for everyone when its heaviest hitting twists require knowledge of the Universal Century?
