Would be sad if she goes Yandere on Ep. 12. x)

-Rip off of Rikka

Not really. Rival thing was nice to introduce the character but she turns out to be more than that for Rikka and Yuuta. [Maybe a little too late and somehow rushed, i agree]
"Rip off" is a big word for a character that seems IMO more developed and interesting than Rikka, at least in this season.

Like others, i wanted Rikka w/ this S2 to grow up and stop the Dad/Daughter relation. Even w/ Satone "rivalry", this status is still remaining and has barely changed.

Will 1 Ep. left, i guess they miss opportunities w/ the show.
Depending of the ending, the question is not to know if "Introducing Satone was a good choice or not ? but more about "Was this S2 really necessary ?"

-no foreshadowing in previous season


Why would that be necessary? And how does that make her appearance bad?

-osanajimmie


Not true. Yuuta clearly said he knew her since middle school. hardly what I would call a childhood friend.

-rip off of Rikka


I disagree. Her 'powers' are vastly different, she dresses differently, and the only connection with Rikka is that they both fancy Yuuta.

Completely unoriginal chararacter that worked for 9 episodes as plot device. Episode 10 drama, backstory, seemingly relevant, NOPE. She was unnecesary, she couldn't even steer shit. She was suppose to make Rikka jealous but that stopped in episode 7 and Rikka stopped thinking about her as rival.


IMO, she never was a true rival to begin with. Riukka was jealous of Satone being able to get so close to him, but Satone assured her early on she wasn't there to steal him away from him.

And Satone's involvement made Rikka more determined to make things work with Yuuta than before. Before Satone became involved, holding hands was already hard enough for Rikka to do. A few episodes later, she kissed him on the cheek, and while they still have a long way to go, Rikka has become more confident and determined since Satone's presence began to stir things up a little.

While I agree that Satone and Yuuta seem to have better chemistry together and might make a nice couple, I also think she doesn't need him, as she's mature and independent enough to live her life without any help from others.

Rikka, however, is immature and needy due to stunted mental growth as a result of her father's unexpected death. Yuuta is the perfect guy to help her overcome these issues slowly but surely and the effects seem to be paying off. She's now less insecure, more confident and she even seems to have gotten a popularity boost in her own class, which will probably help her break out of her shell even more.

BTW, I don't like the implication of me not being a Satone fan if I don't ship her with Yuuta. I like Satone a lot, maybe even slightly more than I like Rikka, but I still think Rikka is a better match for Yiuuta than Satone.

What? They don't have chemistry, at all. He doesn't even understand her. And calling any chuuni mature is just wrong.

In the anime, Schimiya was made likable , so you end rooting for her at some point. In the novel, she's a crazy bitch and does some nasty things, so you see her as antagonist.

The problem here is that the anime didn't develop her well. The introduction of Schimiya in the novel doesn't become a love triangle, as Yuuta never goes for Satone at any point. In that way, her character becomes some sort of trouble between YuutaxRikka relationship, but doesn't develop anything as their relationship in the novel was just fine already (they kissed in the end of novel 1). But in the anime, they stated that Yuuta and Rikka weren't having any closure. The schimiya intervention would play great here for developing that. Not an ntr, not a love triangle, but a crazy girl doing her stuff.
Instead, she was introduced (dissapearing in the middle of the season with no reason whatsoever) with a vanilla plot similar to the Rikka from season 1. Her purpose it's not clear at all at first, and the viewer gets mixed feelings for what's happening.

I don't think she had to go full yandere mode. But I think that some more early Satone drama and intervention would have been better plot development for how was Yuuta and Rikka's relationship working.

Have you seen how Yuuta and Satone interact with each other, compared to him and Rikka? When you watch them, it's very clear that they're old friends. Rikka's interactions with Yuuta were so bad, it was hard to believe they were dating for half a year already, a fact that hadn't gone unnoticed by their classmates.

And calling any chuuni mature is just wrong.


Satone isn't chuuni, she merely acts that way. And the fact that she is willing to overcome her love issues by confronting them head-on is a big sign of maturity IMO, even more so if she can take Yuuta's imminent rejection and walk away smiling.

I tend to believe that her appearance did progress Yuuta and Rikka's relationship. Perhaps not as direct as you would have liked, but I think the signs are definitely there.

Think about it, why did Rikka suddenly take her relationship with Yuuta more seriously than before, when merely holding hands was too much for her? I think that her initial jealousy of how well Satone and Yuuta got along was what made her more determined to make it work. Even if Satone was never a genuine love rival, Rikka seemed to think of her as a big enough threat nonetheless, enough to get over her shyness and show him her true feelings.

LIKE OLD FRIENDS, NOT LIKE ANKWARD COUPLE.
I have no problem with Rikka and Yuuta cute interactions, it was always like this in Chuniikoi.
Blame Kyoani for they keeping everything at subtetly.

Satone isn't chuuni, she merely acts that way.

Still doesn't make her more mature if she just living in denial.

Seriously, anyone who says Satone is better than Rikka better hit near clinic to check their brains because that's clinical retardness worse than any character in this show

Anyway, Tooka > Nibutani > Satone > Kumin > Rikka

As for Nibutani, for me it's her x Deko-chan all the way :)
And Kumin x Pillow.

Yeah, I love Rikka, but ever since Satone entered the fray I've been all for Satone x Yuuta... her strong feelings for him just move the hell outta me. So Shichimiya has my vote.

I don't hate the idea of Yuuta x Rikka, just the idea of there not being a Yuuta x Satone.

But he doesn't love her, he doesn't even understand nor care about her. They are incompatible.
Yes well, such is the power of shipping. It doesn't really matter what is likely to happen, I still would prefer those two together.

And just saying she's a "shit character" and that they are incompatible doesn't really mean very much to anyone, so if you want me to share your opinion, first you'll have to justify it. For example: the only reason he "doesn't care about her" is because of Rikka's over-protectiveness and not letting him around other girls Shichimiya (except when she considers it convenient).

Aside from that, I think things are about to be pretty complicated if he finds out she has feelings for him... when you already have someone especially, then of course you wouldn't see your childhood friend romantically, since as far as Yuuta's concerned she only sees him as an old friend. When two people suffer from Chuunibyou almost as bad as Dekomori, it's really hard to pick up on all the subtle issues going on in the background that no one is telling you about.

Either way, that's my two cents. I'm not trying to make you like Shichimiya, but Satone has my vote.

Edit: Okay, I see now that you did give somewhat of a reason (I hadn't read past your initial response)... but I think your logic is kind of misguided. If a character should be foreshadowed, then in that case every character introduced in every series ever sucks. And I didn't realize knowing someone since middle school is now a reason to be considered shitty. And if I'm not mistaken, Rikka is a rip-off of Shichimiya. Hell, Rikka's chuunibyou only came about because she admired Yuuta and copied him, who was only copying Shichimiya to begin with. As I said before though, I don't have anything against Rikka, but changing the facts isn't going to prove your point.

I'm not sure why you're under the impression that Shichimiya was "supposed to make Rikka jealous". Clearly that wasn't the role she was to have, as she's been nothing but supportive since the moment she found out about their relationship. It's only now, after seeing Rikka do what she didn't think she had a chance of doing, that she is starting to regain her feelings for him. And that is being able to keep her chuunibyou but still be with Yuuta, and now she's feeling remorse over her previous decision. If this is why you think she's pointless, then you might as well say that all the other characters are pointless and shouldn't be in the series, because they're doing nothing beneficial for Yuuta x Rikka.

It wasn't my intention to say that there was no development. I mean that the Schimiya intervention was perfect for take that development needed in the first episodes, as how weak the relationship between Rikka and Yuuta was introduced in season 2. I mean, 6 months without closure. Yuuta between 4 girls all the time, but the develop comes with just Satone in a somehow weak plot.

I think he would really give a shit or notice anything even if he was single. Rikka barely did anything like that, there wasn't much scenes where she was jealous.

What's point of her character if not make Rikka eager to make more moves? She was initially supportive and Kyoani biggest mistake was episode 10 where suddenly backstory drama hit. Not only too late but utterly pointless as we can see in episode 11.
Thus we have this shit character. Sorry but she is. Kyoani didn't have ablsolute idea what to in this season, they did their usual slice of life, and they should stick it to end. But no, some retard there decided to copy story of first season but with Shichimiya in place of Touka. It didn't work out, they just gave up in this episode. They menage to leave but taste with end of this season (one episode left and OVA).
Now look at poll result if Satone is higher or have similar amount of votes this is proof of their failure.

If the anime had developed her like in the novel most probably I would have dropped this, XD

Unless they made Rikka likable because so far they are all too flanderized and annoying.

Yuuta/Satone only because I love Satone and I just want her to be happy (so if it means Yuuta, then fine) also because I'm a masochist, this ship was doomed from the start

On an unrelated note, LOL @ the character wars going on in this thread...it's ok to not like a character, and it's ok to think that one character is better than the other and it's ok to disagree, but it's totally not ok to look down on others/assert your opinion as superior when they don't agree with you that character x is oh so much better than character y.

No need to get heated over fictional characters...

Well if that's what you think, then I don't know what to tell you besides you're wrong. Perhaps you didn't see episode 7, in which her jealousy was the centerpiece. It was over half the season. Up until episode 9, when she invited her to the beach, she was jealous. Hence Yuuta's surprise that he invited her and why Rikka said "Yes! That's why I invited you here! I need your help."

Characters that might appear later should be somehow foreshadowed beacause that makes existance more point. By "ripp off" I meant a character that shares some traits with other character but must be presented "more appealing".

By your logic, Kumin, or Dekomori, or Makoto, or the samurai-loving girl are all bad characters because they weren't foreshadowed before they showed up. You can't apply your logic to one character and not expect to apply it to all... also if sharing similarities with characters makes you bad, then Nibutani must be a horrible character to because she's just like Yuuta who is a former Chuuni, but now she's embarrassed about it. I think it's obvious that the "point" in Satone, as if any one character needs to have a sole purpose in life or else they fail, is mainly to be able to support Rikka in both her relationship and her Chuunibyou... since she's the only one who can really relate. Dekomori doesn't care about love, and only her Chuunibyou, and Nibutani is the reverse, therefore that makes Shichimiya the middle-man who has more experience with both. She also like(d) Yuuta, so she can give her advice about him in general.

I've yet to see episode 11, so I'll wait until I watch it later today to give any more of my opinion. But saying "Clearly I'm right since over half of the people here disagree with me... that only goes to show that the notorious KyoAni has failed again by making a successful character that I don't like. Because other people like something I don't, obviously I am right."... if you're going to act like that, then what's the point in your opinion, if you can't even accept that others' opinions are just as good as yours? Blind opinions certainly fail to serve their purpose.

I prefer Satone coz Rikka is a hardcore chunibyo... and coz Satone liked Yuuta first.

If Nibutani was in the mix, I'd prefer her, but since there's no hint of any romantic relation with Yuuta, it's pointless.

Chuunibyou thing was excellent for S1 but i think some people like myself wanted something more with that S2.
Don't get me wrong, Chuunibyou is still enjoyable but i do not find it as interesting as it was on S1. Like other, i wanted Rikka to grow up and develop normal relations with others.

They could deal and develop both [Chuuni/Relation] but unfortunately it turns out that both points barely changed from S1.

Exactly! I was expecting and hoping that in S2 Rikka would gradually develop into a "normal" person, but instead nothing changed from S1. Her relationship with Yuuta barely changed from S1. He is still more of a big bro watching over his little sister than a boyfriend. That's why I prefer Shichimiya coz she's not as naive when it comes to love and she can revert back to being normal if she wanted to.

Why would she change if Yuuta liked her Chuuni and encouraged her to continue? Why would main chuuni drop her act in anime titled CHUUNIBYOU?

I'm not surprised people like Satone, but I would never imagine so many people would actually prefer shipping her with Yuuta. I mean they have no mutual chemistry at all since it is a completely one-sided affection so I don't see why you'd want her to be with someone who doesn't even love her at all in the first place. Especially considering that Yuuta and Rikka are already a happy couple since way back, even if their relationship is pretty weird due to the whole chuunibyou aspect.

Well. Rikka did grow up... She did. Why ? Take a look back. Cuz if you drop out all the metaphorical stuff and punchlines, she has changed. - she says, she's afraid to lose Yuuta if she doesn't find the three artefacts - that means, I know if I go this way on my own, I'm going to watch you leave me. She doesn't want Yuuta to be the Dark Flame master. She is just afraid, if she keeps playing her role, he'll just let her go. Because they both are aware their chuunies are the beginning of their story and you know what Rikka is doing ? She's freakin' out about becoming an adult. That's it.

why should riika have to change who she is.he likes her for her. we all saw what happen the last season she when she try to change was a shell of herself.Shichimiyal is so stupid and boring i feel not one inch of pity for her crying in the rain for some else boyfriend is so pathetic and her laugh dont get me started what the hell.so what if yuta and rikka dont kiss or hold hands do their love have to be like everyone else.this is how i see it back then when yuuta was dark flame master Shichimiya liked him but thought she cant be his friend and lover at the same time.rikka on the other hand decide she would have her cake and eat it too he will be both lover and friend.Shichimiya notice their relationship and decided that if she did stick with it she could of have what rikka has now both a lover and a friend.anyway why introduce a character who is similar to rikka i dont care if she is the one that made the yuuta the dark flame master it makes me feel that the author just wanted to make a person like rikka what would of been more interesting is if the new character was a boy similar to rikka then yuuta would be f-ked

Exactly! I was expecting and hoping that in S2 Rikka would gradually develop into a "normal" person, but instead nothing changed from S1. Her relationship with Yuuta barely changed from S1.

Why would she change if Yuuta liked her Chuuni and encouraged her to continue? Why would main chuuni drop her act in anime titled CHUUNIBYOU?

I seriously expected to see around 90% people vote for Rikka :0

I feel sorry for Sophia but well, Rikka's still better tbh.

This is just outcome of absolute shitwriting in this season.


And there was a lot of potential for plot by Yuuta encouraging her Chuuni versus his own wishes for a normal relationship.

As you said, the writing could have been better. I expected the MC to develop as well but so far I know nothing of Yuuta either.

Wow, some people just can't get over the fact that Shichimiya is as good as or even better than Rikka.

Anyway, successful thread is successful. I got to know there are many Satone-chan fans out there like me.

And few, very vocal though, haters of her.
I'm not surprised people like Satone, but I would never imagine so many people would actually prefer shipping her with Yuuta. I mean they have no mutual chemistry at all since it is a completely one-sided affection so I don't see why you'd want her to be with someone who doesn't even love her at all in the first place. Especially considering that Yuuta and Rikka are already a happy couple since way back, even if their relationship is pretty weird due to the whole chuunibyou aspect.


Well I for one ship them because I like to root for the underdog, and she's the childhood friend that's charismatic and mature while everytime I see Yuuta and Rikka's relationship, it makes me cringe.

In S1 they were cute with the pinkie holding and the believe in the me that believes in you and all that, but on this season Rikka is always getting in trouble and Yuuta always has to fix it or just doesn't notice, and he's supposed to be her boyfriend!

So basically that, but being realistic as it is Satone wouldn't have been happy with Yuuta anyway unless he changed and loved her back.

Rikka fits more with someone like Dekkomori, doesn't seem to display the maturity to hold a relationship yet. Just check last episode, instead of improving her relationship with Yuuta through spending time with him or something, she decides to go scavenging for stones.

Where do people get the idea that Satone is Yuuta's childhood friend? Where was it ever stated that they go back that far? They met in middle school and went their separate ways afterwards. That makes them school friends, not childhood friends.

Shichimiya is a better character although her laugh irritates me, but i don't approve her pairing with Yuuta because lack of romance development compared to Rikka and Yuuta doesn't love her back as well (well Rikka and Yuuta got an entire season to develop together lol)

Yup, I've tried to emphasize this as well, but it seems like everyone just likes to jump to stereotyping characters... for better or worse (but mostly for worse). It's like any two characters who are friends before the show starts are automatically considered osananajimi.

So...call them whatever you want. The case is that Satone was interested on him first.

And yeah they're stereotypical, can't get more stereotypical than how they're acting right now.

They're almost on Sayonara Zetsubou's Sensei levels...

And Kumin x Pillow.


What the fuck did you just fucking say about naps, you little bitch? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Far Eastern Nap Society of Summer, and I've been involved in numerous secret raids on the Princess of the Ethereal Horizon, and I have over 300 confirmed naps. I am trained in power sleeping and I'm the top lucid dreamer in the entire school. You are nothing to me but just another bad dream. I will rest my head on this pillow with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the electric ocean? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of sleep specialists across the multiverse and your sleep schedule is being analysed right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call getting rest. You're fucking tired, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can fall asleep in over seven hundred ways, and that's just without a blanket. Not only am I extensively trained in napping, but I have access to the entire arsenal of napping accoutrements in my bedroom and I will use them to their full extent to make sure your miserable ass gets enough sleep, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” all-nighter was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have gone to fucking bed. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will get you some fucking rest and you will drown in it. You’re fucking getting some sleep, kiddo.


edit: Rikka > Shitshimiya

I take my vote back, Shichimiya deserves so much better. Shichimiya x Yuuta for me...

I like Rika but she needs to mature already. It's 2nd season, you know...

Shichimiya.

Kyoani is stupid. They should at least do a harem ending. We all know that Yuuta is the son of Lelouch and CC (hair color, voice, and extent of chuunibyou) and therefore a prince and deserves a harem.

Rikka....there's nothing to work with a "ShichimiyaxYuuta" pairing. Absolutely nothing. Others noted the same, that he has eyes only for Rikka.

I think if the question were "Who do you ship with Rikka?" There'd be quite the interesting discussions to be had.

As it is now, most of the debating is about Shichimiya's character, and not why she would go well with Yuuta, which is what the discussions should be about.

There are no good things about Rikka anymore.

Sadly, Satone is too good for Yuuta.

I sympathized with Satone, and it would be have been nice to see her and Yuuta end up together considering they were really close friends when they were younger. In the end though, it's really not anyone's fault but Satone's. She said so herself, maybe if she took his hand back then instead of the medal she could have ended up with him but she didn't. She made her choices, and here we are now. I guess it doesn't matter in the end anyways because Yuuta never had a sliver of a feelings towards her. Rikka had no reason to feel threatened because even Satone had boundaries on that sort of thing. The whole season was sort of pointless.

^ Eh, people keep throwing the word "pointless" around like a bad apple. Sure, I didn't think this season was quite on par with the first, but I don't see why whether or not Satone got with Yuuta determines if the season or her character had "a point". If people are going to go by that kind of logic they might as well not watch the series, or any other anime for that matter (because whether you like them or not 99% of the characters in a series aren't going to get with the main character)... or hell do anything at all. Nothing has "a point" by this logic.

I mean, what purpose did Makoto serve? He didn't get with Yuuta... he got with Chihiro. That doesn't make him pointless. Only disturbing. Nibutani and Tooka and everyone not Rikka didn't get with him. I say it was still a good season and I still would've rathered Shichimiya get with Yuuta. I don't see why hating Satone should make her or this season pointless though... if you hate Satone or you would've rathered her be with him, then then just say it. Why call everything pointless?

The reason I'd ship them is because Satone is so much better and cuter in my opinion, so I want an outcome that's favourable for her :3

Oh no, no, no, I didn't think that Satone was the reason the season was pointless, I just saw little growth in the characters, no real conflict between anyone, nothing... I wasn't even completely sure what the season was about. I guess it was just about the bond between Rikka and Yuuta becoming stronger, which is fine. To answer the original question though, I would have prefered to see Satone with Yuuta, but I don't hate Rikka and Yuuta either.
