But teacher doesnt love Reina back, and the other thing happens in the novels, might not happen in the show.
But that still seems to delegitimate Reina's love for Kumiko. It makes it look like Kumiko's just her personal comfort because at the end of the day she still loves Teacher. Specially since her confession regarding teacher was much more serious than anything she explicitly stated towards Kumiko. Teacher loving her back is irrelevant for this. A fix scenario would be her realizing she was wrong about teacher and staying with kumiko.

I don't really understand all the yuri baiting in this anime.
People who don't like yuri are more inclined to ignore it. If anything we know yuri always sells terribly in japan. Wouldn't baiting just affect them negatively?

Also, I don't read the LN's but from what I've heard of the people that have, most of the yuri sub... overtext is done by KyoAni since they're the ones doing all the physical intimacy since that wasn't present in the original. Maybe they understand their fans more than I thought though. Free!! sells well and everyone sees their all-girls shows as canonically yuri for some reason (The fans made me dislike K-On and Sora No Wo To... ) Yuri might actually work FOR KyoAni... Actually now that I think about it, KyoAni might actually really be into yaoi and yuri. They don't really write hetero romances all that well, since Haruhi. I think they only do hetero stuff for financial profit out of fear, but really "want" to do yaoi and yuri. Kind of wish they'd just come out of the closet though.

That's what others think but Kyoani said it already that it's not.

Kyoani is just being realistic, you know yuri don't sell well right? Kyoani knows that too. But Kyoani will still try to lure as much potential customers from that fandom without going all full yuri. Why should they come out of the closet? They're not even hiding there anyway.

Are you saying you don't ship them because it's not canon? What's the point of shipping then? You don't ship a couple because they are canon, you ship them based upon their interaction with one another and your interpration of these interactions. If you find out a source material sinks your ship, you don't automatically become a shipper of the new canon couple. You either choose to ignore the source and continue to interpret interactions a certain way, which is perfectly okay because just because a couple is canon, doesn't mean that was the best possible choice. Or, you give up on your ship entirely.

All of my ships are legit and proven canon in the end, with or without the knowledge from the original source, that's the same reason why I'm confident of my ship in Hibike will be canon in the end. Luckily, the source is agreeing with me.

I don't ship couples that won't be a couple in the end. If I won't get my ship to win in the end, I'll either drop it or just shut up or simply enjoy the show and not argue.

Thank you.

Im gonna still shipping Kumiko and Reina even if it doesnt become canon, because at least even being just friends, their relationship is way better than Shuuichi/Kumiko, Taki/Reina.

I really think we should just get over the whole Obey the canon! thing.

Dropping a ship just because it won't be canon is really weird, by the way. I get that you like, worship the author or something but you shipped them because you liked the them toghether, right? Why would you stop shipping them just because the author doesn't agree? Seems really weak willed to me. It's like being canon removes any of the fans' rights to think for themselves.

Aaaaanyways, slightly off topic,

So basically what I'm saying is, anime/manga may be a bit more flexible and listen to fans more in the future. Western media seems to do it more and more and Eastern media may very well follow bit by bit.

Then what exactly made you ship Kumiko and Shuuichi in the first place? Any specific moments that you thought their characters complemented each other or the chemistry between them was good, more so than Kumiko and Reina? Or did you just guess at what was the most likely end pairing based on the type of show it was and stick with that?

I see Kumiko and Shuichi as childhood friends who had conflicts in past and waiting for that to be fixed. I saw the disturbances and uneasiness in Kumiko when Hazuki tried to take Shuichi, I saw a spark there and I sense that they have been feeling something for each other for a long time. Now we are seeing slow interaction of the two so I checked the source to verify my suspicion and I was right.

I see Kumiko and Reina, as close friends, doing what girls do. Yeah, the flirt thing is not NORMAL for some but in anime it is NORMAL. Reina already said who she loves Taki and Kumiko loves Euphonium-kun. And I'll never ship a girl with her musical instrument so I ship her and Shuichi coz this two has a LOT of things to fix and that makes me interested to them.

I'm not drawn by "set up" scenes made by Kyoani for Reina and Kumiko coz its so forced and "planned". You've been watching anime for so long, you should've known what is "real" and what is "just bait".

Welcome back, Googletranlate-kun.

Really what leads me to believe that yuri fans have never had contact with real lesbian, or saw real relationships, Or even read a work or novel written by lesbians.


We already talked about that, right? You don't know anything about yuri or homosexuality so just don't talk about it, okay?

Even people that don't want the yuri see the yuri/bait/whatever so it's obviously not delusional or wishful thinking or whatever you think it is. And, you know, actual lesbians are shipping those two. I know cause I had contact with them. And I think actual lesbians know a thing or two about lesbians.

Please don't write about Cross Ange in your answer, by the way.

How about you stop talking out of your ass? Yuri fans love Sayaka. On Dynasty there are more Sayaka x Kyouko doujins than there are MadoHomu ones. And they rarely even talk about Kyousuke anymore. And if they do, then because he's a genuinely unlikeable character. Not because Sayaka was into him, but because of how he treated her.

Or you will deny that 90% of attacks and injuries to men characters in anime they supposedly find it yuri, and has its colorful vessels are made by fans of yuri.
Killed 100% of fic
95% of attacks and injuries to heterosexual relationships, are made by fans of yuri.
98% of injuries and attacks against female character who is interresado on a character of the opposite sex comes from yuri fans, taxed as a bitch and whore.

There aren't even enough yuri fans to make those numbers work.
Yuri fans knows no bounds, because they do not behave like fans of shoujo-ai, which are civilized and rational people, who respect the opinions of others and do not attack relations or men.

First of, shoujo ai isn't even a thing. Secondly, you are doing the attacking.
With all due respect the yuri fans seem to those of the US extreme feminist, who hate men, romantimos and heterosexual relationships, coming to attack and bomb a astrouna simply because he's wearing a shirt with a cartoon character.

Huh.

Doesn't seem like they're going to be tying off any relationships with just one episode to go (to the surprise of no one). I'm kind of doubting they're even going to show the nationals at the current pacing, I'm guessing cliff hanger or up to qualifiers?

On an unrelated note, please ignore cancerous posting.

Well you know the saying, there's no smoke without a fire. And this show is exactly that, smoke without fire AKA as subtext, some may watch it for the drama some for the music but none the less figures don't lie, it was subtext that sold more, well some may saw them as genuine friendship that is posible only in anime and bound by these laws where esthetic and built tension are just eye candy and are pleased with given. And there is nothing wrong in that.... yet sudenly why am i remembering hayao miyazaki interview about his thoughts where current anime is heading.
