Maybe you could write her off as playful until that scene, but she is used goods that sleep around like a common whore. She tried to get on the MC while being sober. Imagine her how much she fucks around while drunk.

Did you even watch the scene? Having some sex life does not equal sleeping around like a common whore. What's with this virginity cult? It takes time and effort to learn how to do sex properly, so somebody who neither refrains from sex, nor is a loose cannon, is the perfect partner. Also notice how the entire cast is quite the well-adjusted drunks, who never do something they'd regret on the next day. You know, unlike Americans who have never touched alcohol until college and then go off the deep end in the freshman year, because they have the same life experience with booze as an average 12 year old European. It's like you ARE a 12 year old who judges everybody else like they are also 12 year olds… which would make perfect sense if we were in 4chan.

I just want to bring your attention to something:
How the fuck did the girls manage to get all of them to wear boxers for the photo? That's quite the achievement.

Also I now want to see Kouhei and Iori in a Cure Black and Cure White cosplay.

This is Vanderbilt et al's fault, private railroads can't support their own maintenance cost to the point that every one in the US bottlenecks in Chicago. Passenger rail has to rent the tracks they're using from the freighters who own it and even though most of them were built with public money back in the day upgrading or building new lines just doesn't happen now. It would certainly be cheaper and faster than the road system that is crumbling now since we've delayed repairing it for 50 odd years off what it was designed to withstand.
The US infrastructure in general is abysmal on all fronts, but at least it's not China.

It's a shame because there's a lot of money that could be used, but governments choose to allocate it to dubious (at best) stuff. With that said, even if our passenger rail system was ameliorated and expanded, I have doubts that it would be used enough that to justify the costs.
Also the Washington D.C. Metro is an abortion, and I hope to visit a country with a working rail system so I can jack off to that.

It can easily justify the costs on the two coasts, as the distances there are short enough. However that would require changing many other laws and priorities too, as USA just doesn't want public transport. Ironically, that's part of the legacy of the racists, as not killing the existing public transport during the first half of the last century would have benefited the niggers. So go ahead and speak sensibly about this in the current political climate; you just can't. Either you'd be "race-baiting", or the actual racists would be against a measure that would benefit poor whites too.

I was on Amtrak a while ago when the train was stopped and fell behind schedule because a passenger accused another of trying to steal his phone. The cops arrived and he yelled about how he didn't do anything.

The cops checked their database and found there was an unrelated outstanding arrest warrant for him. They arrested him for the warrant and dropped the phone case while he kept yelling about how he didn't do anything.

When I finally got off at the station, there were beggars arguing with the cops, just like there always are, except when there's no cops around and the beggars harass random passengers instead.

I'm sure you already know all the people I'm complaining about and half the cops were black. Talk about racists all you want, but that won't change the fact that US public transportation is unsafe, the problems often involve blacks, and if all Americans were magically replaced by Japanese people, public transportation would become safe and comfortable overnight.

How? It was a joke. Diablo had way more trouble fighting the mayor than the actual awakened demon lord.

 No.25954

>>25932
Are you actually watching the fights in this series for how much trouble Diablo has with them?

Novelfags say this was mostly the introduction/gathering of the cast, and the series becomes more typical adventuring stuff. That would require actually challenging fights. But as far as this anime season is concerned, "challenge" was never part of the equation. It's like thinking that the final fight in OPM needed to be "challenging". Or like thinking Rakudai Kishi needed to have the emotional climax on the fight instead of on the proposal. The whole "well-choreographed and challenging last boss fight" is a cliche of an entirely different genre.

Anyway, the fight, however unchallenging, was well-animated, and did its job of characterizing Diablo, as well as making a well-integrated nod to the usual type of rpg quests about bringing a monster to sanity (lower its hp, then use persuasion of some sort).

 No.25958

>>25954
Given that they specifically built up to this battle and throughout the show had Diablo go from curbstomping everyone to having increasingly more difficulty with stronger opponents, yeah, it was a dumb way to conclude things. It wasn't an interesting fight either by any stretch, it was just Diablo avoiding attacks while dropping symbols on the ground which then activate a big spell. They bring up how he gave all his healing potions away which they signal is going to be an issue, but then nothing comes of it and he wins anyway. It was both the least interesting fight in the show and the weakest payoff of a fight in the show. And it wasn't very well animated either, compared to previous scenes like the first episode or destroying the fallen at the bridge.
If you want to argue that the fight wasn't important, then they already fucked up by spending half the episode focusing on it in the first place. I don't know how you claim it characterised Diablo either because it didn't do shit for that, he just didn't want to kill Klem and we already knew that before the fight started.
>as well as making a well-integrated nod to the usual type of rpg quests about bringing a monster to sanity (lower its hp, then use persuasion of some sort).
That's a pretty big stretch when it's just as clichéd as the "brainwashed ally battle" gets in any story.

Probably. They may have been trying to show off the berserk demon lord's moves and how it could last more than 5 seconds against Diablo. Maybe they should've just let it blow up a big piece of scenery and used the extra time to have the loli version run around naked.

Anyone else noticed the increase in fat cosplayers in the last few comikets?
I started noticing pictures of them showing up last year I think. 2 years ago you never saw pictures of fat girls cosplaying in the events.
I feel like ugly girls are also becoming increasingly more common.

They rearranged it a bit to introduce characters faster, and skipped a bunch of chapters focusing on the delinquent guy. But generally speaking the translations were pretty far behind since it was abandoned for a long while. I'm not sure how much of the whole manga the anime ended up covering.

 No.20535

Translation seems to be up to the fifth volume, but 12 eps usually adapt around three-four volumes worth of material. Well, whatever. We aren't getting a new season this year anyway. BD sales were so-so, I think, so we can expect some more down the line if the manga sales get a decent bump too.

I'm awful at articulating the reasons why I (dis)like something, and you explained every problem I have with the show. So thank you, anon!
Throughout the entirety of the show, I only felt emotionally invested once, and that was the little oni episode. Your comparison with TTGL is apt; the former's portrayal of conflict was done so much better than Franxx's depiction of war. There was too much space where I felt that little progression was occurring, and when it did occur, it wasn't compelling, and the subsequent moments felt disconnected.
I try to enjoy a show for what it is, and I really wanted to enjoy Franxx, but in the end, I felt like I wasted a bit of my time watching this series.

Space ended up being a honeymoon like they suggested: the climax of the story had already passed before they went to space, and it just physically represented their conclusions. You're right that a third cours would've been needed to flesh it out into a proper arc.

As for things to relate to and "winning" on Earth, it was characters vs. the environment with winning being producing the next generation. Not everyone will relate to that and it was absurdly rushed.

At least they made the ending look pretty, so I'm not exactly disappointed.
