...I-is it okay? I mean this should be a total piece of garbage by all means, but there's no panty shots? No bungie cord titties flopping around? There's a shit ton of girls and even a maid cafe and a goofy pirate outfit, but... Why doesn't this show suck? Maybe because it's not trying to be Nisemonogatari, but trying to be a great space adventure with a great lead character.Moretsu Pirates or Bodacious Space Pirates, which ever sounds worse to you... Wow, even a terrible title, but this anime still doesn't blow? Yep, from I've seen thus far, there's nothing but incredible potential in this anime, despite the gaggle of girls, the silly pirate costumes, and, from what everyone highly expected it to be, what it would have appear to be some sort of moe space pirates adventures in the promotions, this anime has real potential to be even this year's best, or at the very least, the best sci fi anime in years
>not dropping boretsu pirates after episode 1I shiggy diggy.
From actual character build up (Actual believable build up no less) to characters with personalities bigger than their cleavages (Despite that I haven't seen a single chest pillow peek out from any shirt, even though there's now twenty one episodes available), and great set up on the world of this anime, Bodacious Space Pirates is looking up to be quite the space adventure. The main focus is on the series main girl and eventual space pirate captain, Kato, the daughter of the late Space Pirate Captain Gonzaemon Kato, who have only just learn about her pirate heratage from her mother and crew members of the late captain and is expected to be the next captain, and is even reluctant to believe it (Along with the news of them being legal pirates). Kato is a lovable main lead that has no where to go in her character but up, she's no typical "I know how to pilot a giant machine without any training" lead character, she's the kind who only grows, and this anime actually acknowledges that as she's not thrown right away at the future plot or the captain's seat right away, a seat that will obviously need an experienced leader and not an unrealistic teenager that magically know what to do in any situtation, she has to do some real learning of what's what, from learning what it means to be a pirate to shooting a lazer gun. And when she's finally a space pirate captain, there will be no moans and groans from me, the anime will have shown her development to that point, it will have shown her effort to become that space captain we will hope she'll become.
But, that's only little of what this anime has does right that others do so yawn inducingly lazy, the whole theme and world build up is done exceptionally well, the other characters are interesting (And though the first couple of episodes will obviously focus on our captain-to-be, the rest of her crew will undoubtly be fleshed out, I mean what's a captain without her crew? A school girl?) and even with only a few episodes in, there's a strong feeling that there's going to be grand adventures that would make certain pirates envious.But remember, before any of the piracy can start, getting your bearing and settings right is first priority, Mouretsu Pirates has shown through it's character's space yacht exercise that the space battle and exporation portion of the series will be done flawlessly, and I'm glad to know it's willing to spend several episodes to do so (Despite the slow pace, which will be graining to some). However, once the outer space cruise is over, the anime almost seems like it's trying to make up for lost time by literally rushing Marika right into the captain's seat to the point where I wanted to say "Slow the hell down people! She's only a high school student!"After such a strong string of episodes, it's almost head scratchingly odd to see the pace turned up to the max and have the lead character put to work so soon, especially after it seemed to be taking it's time to get there.
Picked up.
Nice MAL review you have there.>reviewing anime before they finished
Moretsu Pirates is a show ahead of its time. Outstanding in all fields, a true masterpiece. While watching, I only felt amazement and shame - my eyes are not worthy to view something so perfect, almost as if it was made for the Gods themselves.What makes Moretsu Pirates so great, is that, on top of the gorgeous art, unique and bodacious character designs, and orgasmic soundtrack, it has the best writing one could ever possibly imagine. Yuuichi Sasamoto makes Gen Urobuchi look like a stagnant pedant who is capable of only writing children's literature. The characters are so well written I know I could die for Marika if I knew her in real life. The story keeps you on the edge of your seat with excitement, pulling you through countless ups and downs, while also managing to be something completely innovative, original, fresh. A new idea. Anyways I like this show and it's really a masterpiece, if you didn't like it your opinion is probably not as good as mine10/10 best show of all time
>>663246622deep4u
>>66324612>it's trying to be a great space adventure
I find this one of the most difficult animes to get through out of the list of animes on my currently watching list. Screw the helpful/not helpful rating on the reviews, that shit doesn't do anything to bring justice to what which animes are really worth it. Regardless of whatever future rating this review may have, please just read this before you just disappoint yourself watching this anime.There is no story. There isn't anything. No character development, you won't know what's happening most of the time, you don't see what you think would make this anime progress towards the better ,you will fail to see the purpose of why anything is happening and how this is entertaining you like a good anime should.It's like the people making this forgot that anime was supposed to be fun.They don't give us anything to laugh at, no heroes, no villains. The dialogue is a bunch of cheesy crap, space prate largo which feels really pointless and stupid at times.You will not care for any of the characters, what their pasts are, what their motivation is. They're FLAT, and I mean, FLAT, they are the closest thing to non-existence as far as purpose goes. Why are they there? Because they need heads to make a crew for this retarded space voyage. People just come out of nowhere and expect to be some important part in the story, and in the end...
>>66324987You just don't give a shit.If they haven't deprived us of enough of our time, the biggest crime in this anime is that they have girls floating around in zero gravity, wearing skirts, but NO panty shots, or a smidgen of service to relieve our dry eyes.The opening song is retarded, I'm on episode 11, yet I still don't give a crap and have not listened to the ED. I doubt I would bring trouble upon myself to put any of the music or score in this anime to put in my Mp3 Player.The voice acting is disappointing given the roles we have here. We have Kana Hanazawa, yet her character hardly appears in the series and when she does it's an even further disappointment given that she plays almost no part in whatever the fuck is happening in this anime.It still blows my mind to know that crap like this is allowed a full season (26 episodes) to melt the brains of the people who watch.Since I pride myself in making through an anime no matter how much of a clusterfuck it may be, I can't drop this whether it's killing my braincells or not.But you can still save yourself. Don't waste your time with this piece of crap, there are SO MANY MORE ANIMES THAT ARE WORTH WATCHING. WHY DOES THIS HAVE TO BE THE ONE TO KILL YOURSELF OVER?

It's good that you ennjoyed it , OP. but it can't possibly be that great.This is probably more of an average show.
>>66326651>possibly>probablyDid you watch it?
>>66326685Nope.Just saying it's not the best sci-fi anime in years.Don't get mad.
>>66326720I'm not mad but curious. How are you able to form your opinion if you didn't even watch the show?Personally I can't think of a better, recet sci-fi anime because there aren't many of them.
It's sad when unpopular shows get reverse trolled. It's like kicking a puppy with no legs.
>this anime has real potential to be even this year's best, Nah>or at the very least, the best sci fi anime in yearsPossibly. It's not like we've had a ton of them though, let alone ones that were good. You might have to go all the way back to EnJ to find the last good one because I can't think of any off the top of my head. In before Infinite Stratos. In any case MP is definitely a pleasant surprise. >>66326022Fucking finally.
Golden ghost ship arc>this arc>first arc>lesbian wedding arc
Still not enough Chiaki in this episode. Ai is great and all but Chiaki deserves more screentime.
>>66328080Chiaki is too good for screentime.If she got more screentime, than she already has, then she would end up as Mami.
>>66327220I liked the Lesbian Wedding arc...
I dropped it around 13. Really, really dropped the ball on this one. I actually thought the princess arc would be good. It built up to an interesting climax. And then it just ends abruptly and goes back to school shenanigans.Just. Wow. What the fuck. How do you fuck up space pirates?
>this anime has real potential to be even this year's best, or at the very least, the best sci fi anime in yearsno, but it's no bad since you realize it's K-ON is space
>>66327220golden ghost ship arc was lamespace pod racing arc wasn't bad, last episode was fun
The amount of fanservice in a show does not equate its quality. Just because a show with a bunch of girls has no fanservice doesn't mean it will be a good show.It's how the fanservice or no fanservice is executed is what matters.And in Space Pirates, the no fanservice is executed poorly, which results in a bad and boring show.
>>66324662>boretsu pirates
Oh shit, /a/. I think I'm in love.
>>66325359I would love to ram my book up her bookshelf and spray words all over her face.
>>66328393>not posting the gifsomeone post the gifs
>>66328249The arc contained the episodes 14-18.Two of them- 14 (search for a new crew) and 16 (Mami's costumes)- were downright bad. They were ridiculous in a bad way.15 is easily the best episode of the arc but it isn't relevant for the plot.The plot episodes - 17 and 18- are okay but nothing more. Nothing is special about them, the conflict is cliched and not interesting.
>>66325361>Loved the Toy Story reference.There was one?Anyway, yes, it was really fucking awesome. Even if you found the rest of the show to be boring - This one episode made it worth watching.
In order to make good SF, you need either :-to be extremely boring (Mouretsu Pirates, Starship Operators), which in a similar to Star Trek way caters to the tech geek who'll enjoy small, possibly absurds details-not to be boring at all, which in a Star Wars kind of way caters to everyone who likes to follow a story, the sci-fi being more of a coating than the actual focus on the show (LoGH for instance, has little to none "proper" sci-fi plot)
Something actually happened in the last episodeLooks like something might happens in the next one too>>66325113>>66325120>>66328393Confirmed for best girl
>>66328525So it has to appeal to autists or normalfags.

>>66328525Except Star Wars is Fantasy, not Sci-Fi.Mouretsu Pirates is real Sci-Fi, though. Just look at the borderline pornographic scenery.
>>66328419
>>66328649>Except Star Wars is Fantasy, not Sci-Fi.Read http://scifi.about.com/od/starwarsglossaryandfaq/a/Star-Wars-Faq-Is-Star-Wars-Sci-Fi-Or-Fantasy.htm
>>66328752my god the hat is gone
and I thought that was the one in /a / accompanying this show
>>66328765It's fantasy because it doesn't explore the ramifications of scientific progress.The show could've been the same had it stayed on a single planet. Just make the aliens into different nations and the death star into a town-shattering weapon.It's not Sci-Fi if you can downgrade the setting to a lower tech level without losing anything whatsoever. Sci-fi is, per definition, something that actually explores the effect of change.Hell, even a standard fantasy setting can be sci-fi if it starts exploring how magic is completely changing daily life, economy, etc.If D&D spent time on explaining how the peasant railgun made siege warfare non-existant and forced people into becoming nomads, it would be sci-fi.
ai-chan not winning the race was bullshitit could at least have been the red hair girladditionally, nobody in the 41st millennium can aim worth a damn, and large battle-capable spaceships don't have point-defense lasers.
>>66329000They have lasers, they can't fire in the atmosphere without blowing themselves up.
>>66329000you would think the machine gun would be computer controlled and easily hit the target from the preestablished technology level (eg. that we saw in the first arc, where using a manual aiming system was considered an unusual tactic)
>>66329000They had to borrow money from the animation department as is just for the weapons they have now.
>>66328860You have to get that most people don't care about that. People going in every thread just to post "Boretsu pirates" most certainly don't care/know about how SF is supposed to be about effect of change, and just want a story.It's like saying LoGH is SF. It's wrong, yet no one has too much of a problem with it.
>>66329052point-defense lasers are designed to be short-range, relatively low-power and used for defense against solid projectiles or space debris.If the enemy was close enough to hit you with atmospheric solid projectile weapons, you should be able to use point-defense lasers to disable them, instead of firing a hugeass beam.That said, they should have simply provided fire support from orbit, but, being consistent, they can't aim for shit.
>>66329000>no one in the 41st Millennium can even aimDo you even purge?
>>66328860>>66329126I'm not sure if I understood it.The difference between fantasy and sci-fi is the story telling. Sci-fi asks "what if" while fantasy wants to tell a story.Is that correct?
>>66329430No, but I do have a Warrant of Trade.
>>66329647>Be 7 foot killing machine>Not allowed to purge the heriticsBeing Schnitzerpace Marine is suffering.
>>66329591Sci-Fi explores the background. Fantasy uses the background as a backdrop.
You will never explore an alien planet with nothing your broken dinghy and the stars to guide you ;_;
>>66329647My Nocturnal.
>>66328765The author gets one critical thing wrong: just because it plays in the future and somehow involves technology, it's not sci-fi. Sci-fi is for Science Fiction, not Future Fiction.I'd call Star Wars fantasy with spaceships and laser beams.
>>66329975It's a space opera, just like LOGH
I worry it will never realize the potential. Ever.
JESUS CHRIST /a/. EVEN YOUR FUCKING SPACE OPERAS ARE MOE????IS THAT YOUR FUCKING SHEPPARD? Holy shit
>>66330004Either moe, or gay.
>>66330004
I gave up after about 7 episodes. If you enjoy boring space adventures with nothing happeing at all then it's fine.>>66330004This is no space opera. It's cute girls doing cute things in space.
>>66330004She's actually quite a lot more badass.
>>66330112off topic but I'd like to know how that lawnmower is flying

honest review of moretsu:inoffensive
You know, I think I might actually buy ME3 before it's in a 4.99 bargain big if someone made a Shepard->Marika head mod and the Japanese dub had Mikako Komatsu voicing her.
>>66330278I see you're covering anime rather than planets now, Ford.
Insurance Fraud Space Clowns
so lemmie get this straight.Marika is dumb so she leads the bad guys right to the race and gets them all in direct trouble, the race chairwoman is completely batshit insane and thinks that the club is evil even though it's been 5 years and school over there only lasts for 3, people nearly get shot on an impossible course and at the end the race has to be restarted so that everything everyone did until then was a complete waste of time and this is a HAPPY ending?
>>66330287Should I buy the first game?I heard it was actually decent, in contrast to the sequels.Also, will it run on Windows 7? I heard the cracked version has an issue with that - Does it exist for the non-cracked version?
>>66325280Hard scifi demands that when you wear miniskirts in zero gravity, that there be panty shots. In hard scifi, there be no magic miniskirts that never reveal the goods.
>>66330362I think rather than the race being restarted from space, they just continued along the track with one competitor out (Ai).Marika had no idea what was going on, because she had been given no information. She was hired for security, so she went with the dinghys to monitor the situation.The chairwoman was insane, you are correct.
>>66330439Hard sci-fi also means that some of these girls go commando/have really interesting panties.Furthermore, hard sci-fi demands sex on space vessels. Gay sex is there's no one of the opposite gender available.
>>66330466>I think rather than the race being restarted from space, they just continued along the track with one competitor out (Ai).I think it would've been better had she won by virtue of being such a badass pilot.
>>66330476So what your telling me this show is complete bullshit? And there isn't nearly enough recreational fucking?
>>66330439There are only no pantyshots because of the camera angles.
i'd do that Jenny a lot, not a little
>>66330362 , the race chairwoman is completely batshit insane and thinks that the club is evil even though it's been 5 years and school over there only lasts for 3It's an elevator school, the princesses are in the club and they're still in the middle school.
>>66330417Yes, even if you just play it on easy just for the story, you should play the first one.The first one is an rpg with shooter elements, where 2 and 3 are shooters with rpg elements. But the story is pretty great in all three.No problems for me
>>66330004>SHEPPARDSure is shit videogame series in here.gb2/EAforums/
>>66330558It's Japan. There's always an absence of recreational fucking.That's because the women there fuck too much. Fiction is about escapism, not about enforcing bad memories about reality.
>>66330724Are the character build choices interesting?I'd actually prefer a shooter with RPG mechanics... But are the shooter mechanics actually good in the sequels or is it Call of Duty IN SPACE with RPG mechanics?
>>66330567Which is very unfortunate. Rock hard sci-fi demands that there be better camera angles.
my sci fi is diamonds
>>66330994
>>66330362>thinks that the club is evil even though it's been 5 years and school over there only lasts for 3Lynn was in middle school when the accident happened.
>>66330932>Dat sceneFuck, now I've got rock hard science.We need to go diamond hard.Is there any way to request a pantyshot in this scene? Bonus points for underwear fitting such a laid-back badass captain.
>>66331065The chairwoman tried to crash her security chief instead of using the comm system to talk to her - that's insanity (if communication doesn't work, then use force). Her actions constitute especially aggravated assault and reckless endangerment of human life, and she should be locked away in a rubber room.
She is traumatized from what Hakuoh team did to her. Hence, losing a sense of judgement.
>despite the gaggle of girlsis that supposed to be a problem?
>Grunhilde cheating againAside from that I liked the color scheme of the dinghy Chiaki-chan's school uses.
>>66333576Grunhilde would make a good captain
Sadly, I thing this is the only real pantyshot we got so far in Mouretsu Parfait.
>>663335763rd place: Long skirt2nd place: Short skirt and socks1st place: Short skirt and thigh highsAs it should be.
>>66331480How come novel Chiaki looks a lot more relaxed and fun loving than animu Chiaki? Did novel Chiaki get to "relieve some pent up stress" together with Marika?
>>66331480Is that really supposed to be Chiaki?
>>66333872If it wasn't for plot shield she would be shot down in a matter of seconds
>why can't japs into good stories anymore?because when they do, you f/a/ggots call it entry lvl shit and hate on it.on a different note. Mouretsu uchuukaizoku may not be as glorious as OP states but nevertheless it is an entertaining show, which I understand if one dislikes it, but just because it doesn't fit your taste doesn't make it shit.

>>66334507>>66334571How?
>>66334586How what?
Would you buy books with Ai?
I was just trawling pixiv for some fanart, and it looks like even the shittiest precures have more fanart than this entire series.It's a real shame.
>>66334832I'd stuff her turkey, IYKWIM.It occurred to me this episode, that she bears a resemblance to Nadeko from Bakemonogatari.
>>66331018I'd love a bigger version of this. Looks kinda classy.
>>66334986I'd watch the stars with her.
>>66335023The only version I can find is on gelbooru, and that's the largest one there.
>>66335118I'll never understand why artists make awesome fanart and then only post stamp size versions of it.

>>66336397please don't
>>66336618But Chiaki needs to relax once in a while. She's so uptight, a trip to space mexico would really do wonders for her.
>>66336667But she already has someone to relax with.
>space mexicans
>>66336748Oh but Marika would come too. It'd be a fun bonding opportunity for them.
>>66336794There are space niggers next episode, so it's not too surprising
>>66336886Looks like Marika is going to end up space raping them, though.
>>66336940Well I hope she wears a space condom.
>>66336973Don't worry, she keeps her space sixteen-inch strapon clean.
What type of parfait does Chiaki prefer?
>>66337046Space parfait from space mexico.
>>66337046
Why is Marika's hair so incredibly sexy?
>>66337080>>66337092Huh.>>66337099It's like she's always just on the verge of full on sex hair.
>>66337099Because she uses it to attract unsuspecting young maidens.

>>66337285The what work?
>>66337358people still troll this?
>>66337331I heard about it a few threads back, I have no idea whether it's true or not.
LN or anime ship designs?
>>66337683>BentenmaruLN>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Anime>Odette IIAnime>LN>Silent WhisperAnime=LN>BarbalusaLN>Anime
>>66337683LN has better ship designs but anime has better character designs.
>>66337683I don't know the other ship designs, but that Bentemaru is way better than the anime version.
>>66337683That looks better than this. Why did they change it so much?
>>66337796Probably a lot easier to CG
>>66337762I prefer the way Marika looks on the cover of the novels to the anime design.>>66337769
>>66337769
>>66337762This
>>66337683The LN Bentenmaru looks like one of those grotty ships flown by space lowlife. It wouldn't look out of place being flown by a Liberty Rogue or whatnot.Anime Bentenmaru is a much better fit for higher-class swashbuckling pirates and it's Age of Sail interior decoration.
>>66337976I suppose you're right about that. The seven great pirate ships must have been pretty grand at the time, and even if they are hundreds of years old, they should still be flashy.
I like the novel designs of Chiaki, Gruier and Rin better than the anime counterparts. Especially Rin got downgraded a lot.Also, I like that self-assured "c'mere, you sexy thing and let's have fun" look that novel Chiaki has. Animu Chiaki, while decent, looks more like a frustrated closet lesbian, who hasn't realized it yet.
>>66337976I dont mind the gritty beat-up Star Wars look for it, as it seems like it REALLY has been in use for a hundred years
>>66338159They really should have kept Chiaki's LN hairstyle instead of giving her a standard hime cut.
>>66337762Why did they take away Marika's glorious pink drills?
>>66338247Chiaki does look a lot better, as does Mami on the right.I can't say the same about Marika thouhg.
>>66338266Too hard to draw well enough for their hairporn fetish
>>66338260The LN designs look...gratuitous. Do these really look like teenagers?
>but trying to be a great space adventure with a great lead character.So far I have seen no space adventures whatsoever, just high school in space.Had a lot of potential, great characters (bentenmaru crew), but... they decided to skip that entirely and give the spotlight to the most boring characters ever conceived in a show + focus on high school shenanigans.
>>66338322>most boring characters ever conceived in a showYou don't like Ai?
>>66338266Marika is really not a "drills" character. LN characters are overdesigned.
>>66338370No. All the schoolgirls are boring as fuck and as generic as they get.
>>66338404Are you gay? Do you have no heart?

>>66336886why is Fallout trying to kill Captain Freespace 2?
>>66338635Then why is she wearing all those arousing clothes and accessories?It can't be helped
>>66338685Don't make me have to use that.
Why does Grunhilde cheat? She's a princess, she shouldn't have to.
>>66338745She cheated?
>>66338443>>66338455Well, excuuuse me princess. I expected Starship Operators with slice of life mixed in it. Instead I got "generic high school show IN SPAAAAACE" with the characters to complement this setting.
>>66338721Fool!She lives in my heart with the Force!
>>66338765look at the final pictures. Last episode should have been watched also
>>66338765She used a towrope to get in second place.
So, here's my only two questions about this series...Where are the aliens? And, what about Earth?
>>66338822Why is Simon so quirky?
>>66338886There are no aliens and nobody gives a fuck about Earth
>>66338890He suffered a lot so now he just wants to take it easy and collect cute things.
>>66338886There's supposedly space elves. Dunno about Earth.
>>66338886earth is still remembered sort of, through memorabilia and apparently there's space elves; look at novel cover 6
>>66338886>AliensProbably Romulans.
>>66338886>EarthStill around probably.
>>66330142it runs on jimmies
>>66339040>phonies the plantsNot as good as DAMMY and erectronic but it will do
>>66339040All of sol is in the background there.
>>66338956space elfshe will (not) listen to your song
>>66339073Obviously someone's still upset over Pluto.
I want to squeeze Marika's marikas and also I love the show just because of how natural the dialogue and world building feels at times. And the tone is really well established by the soundtrack and pacing.>Dat Celtic music
How did they manage to find a habitable planet in Tau Ceti? I would like to learn about the terraforming technology they use.
Well, it looks like Bodacious Space Pirates is better than Nisemonogatari.
>>66330256I hope to god these scenes are in the anime
>>66339179>TerraformingShit I haven't thought about that.Terraformed Mars and Venus confirmed, novelbros?
WHERE ARE THE SPACE BATTLES? YOU SAID THERE WOULD BE SPACE BATTLES, /a/!
>>66339345Next episode.
Ships explode next episode
>>66339345There have been a few so far.Against Serenity's ships, against the ship tailing the Odette, against Jenny's family.According to someone on /m/, the battles here are more like submarine warfare than ship-to-ship battles.
>>66339420>>66339420It's just mock up battles, mostly. A lot of firing warning shots and running away. I was expecting full blown warfare.
>>66339449But none of the ones he mentioned were mock battles.
>>66339449Everybody is here for business, pretty much nobody wants to kill or be killed.
>>66339512Yes, I know. And that sucks. I was expecting some planet to rebel and declare independence in the middle of the show, but that never happened...
>>66339548But that wouldn't really fit the show. Smaller battles are good enough.
>>66339548Serenity came pretty close to that, I think.Even if people were shooting to kill, I'm sure most fights would come down to information warfare.On the subject of that, why did the Nebula cup organisers leave the race plan on server with external access?This show has been pretty big on compartmentalising sections of networks, then they show the Nebula cup people doing the opposide.
>>66339682Maybe Lin is just that fucking hax.
>>66339548It wouldnt really make sense as its just one planet vs an entire empire. Now we dont need a war, we just need Marika exploring her past and the War's history. Wish the series were a bit more ambitious about that.
>>66339682No clue. Probably plot convenience. Or >>66339723
>>66339597>Smaller battles are good enough.Even if a full scale rebellion happened, they could focus on small battles. Pirates wouldn't be the main force battling, they would mostly do small disruption jobs or mostly stealth missions where a full fleet wouldn't be optimal for the service.
For me Chikai is #1gtfo Aifags
>>66339759Could be more than one planet, or even a coup attempt at the current federation or whatever it's called. There is plenty of material to make a war happened.
>>66339723Or the people writing the anime original episodes didn't think it through.
>>66339836I like both.
>>66339836Chiaki is tsundere parfait-lover.Ai is junior ace pilot.Gruier will get dat pirate booty.
>>66340431I think you mean Grunhilde.
>>66340606Grunhilde isn't even in love with Marika.
>>66340606Grunhilde wants to share.
>>66340660She loves her captain dearly.
Your yuri googles are too tight on this one, /a/
>>66340731I think Ai x Grunhilde makes more sense at this point.
>>66340818Did you skip an episode or something? You don't even need goggles for this show.
>Chiaki appeared in "this wife" smartphone app!http://www.starchild.co.jp/special/mo-retsu/news/IT BEGINS
>>66340818With the OP lyrics being like >>66330256 I've tried to turn down my goggle settings to avoid overloading them but no matter how low I set them it just keeps getting worse(or better) each episode.
>>66341097Only Chiaki? Still, that's a start.
>>66341230Theres already Marika.http://yomecolle.jp/
>>66338803
>>66333576If you want some pansy-ass race for wimps, try watching some pussy "professional" league.You came to the wrong neighborhood, motherfucker. This is an all-girls high-school race. No holds barred, everything is legal so long as it helps you win.
No space Sayaka this episode ;_;
>>66341911Good, sayakas aren't welcome in space.
I'm still butthurt that Natalia didn't win or at least place in the podium. Fuck that, she won the windsurf competition and was the most determined to win the race. At least Ai had her moment to shine.
>>66342202Surprised there's no Longskirt 3rd place fanart yet
Twintails-chan is the best girl.
